Ace looked up from the flower, eyes wide.

"Really?! Thank you!" He yelled, jumping up and hugging the taller male, whispering his thanks over and over again.

"You're the best Floyd!" He said, stepping back and then reaching for the flower, only to stop and think about it.

"Are you sure you don't want it?" He gave his hazel eyed friend a thoughtful look, "I would have thought you would have wanted to keep it…" His eyebrows scrunched together and a small frown etched across his face.

@Abigail Dara Of course! Just fill out the template or send the link for your character, although if you are going to send out the link, make sure to also fill out the template because it has things for this specific roleplay you need to fill out!

Remember, don't make your character too OP!

Also! I have added images to some of my characters- Including Ace, so, make sure to check out those pictures of my handsome boy!! CX

“Yeah, yeah, you’re welcome,” Floyd said, chuckling at Ace’s hyper reaction.

But when the topic of Floyd keeping the flower came up, he simply just shrugged his shoulders loosely and smiled in an almost dopey manner. “I don’t really have any use for it, and I decided it would be a good way to say thank you.”

Floyd pushed the flower carefully into the smaller boy’s hands, being careful not to break the stem or tear one of its delicate petals.

Ace held the flower in his hand, feeling the soft texture of the petals on his palm.

"Thank you so much…" he whispered sincerely, he smiled again, with one hand he carefully held the flower, in the other he took Floyd's hand, dragging him to the castle.

"I've got to show mother! She'll love it!" The nineteen year old squealed, thinking about the look on his step-mothers face when he showed her.

(I've got to go to sleep, night everyone! It's 12:17 where I am right now, and I still got homework to do for Monday! FUN! I will probably procrastinate and do it all tomorrow night, and I will probably be up early! Night everybody! Thanks for joining! <3

(Alright! And honestly same here on the homework part, r.i.p.)

Floyd jogged along side him to the castle and grinned when they arrived. “I’m sure she will. Not every day that you get to see a flower from the upper world. I heard a rumor that some of the other guys on the team saw trees beginning to grow,” he said eagerly.

Floyd had always wished that eh could live in the upper world. His grandmother would always tell him about how magnificent it used to be in France, before it became war torn and polluted. He had hoped that nature would prosper in his lifetime, and that just maybe, he may be able to travel farther than the designated bourderies of Astenford Hill.

@Abigail Dara

About the shape shifting, I was kind of going for like…a world where they are just regular survivors after a war that kind of destroyed most of the earths population..I mean i didn't want to include powers because people make their characters to op like

HE HAS FIRE POWERS AND OMNIPRESENCE AND THEY ARE ALL KNOWING AND THEY ARE IMMORTAL

I mean, that's obviously not what your doing..I guess we could do powers if everybody else wanted to…

"Wait a minute," he screamed in surprise (Once again) "Tree's? I wonder what they look like…I heard a few trainees say that their mentors saw them and that they had big purple leaves and a blue trunk!" he laughed at the idea before turning to Floyd, walking backwards.

"What do you think they look li-" before he could finish his sentence, he crashed into somebody's chest, flinching out of surprise, before turning around.

Once he turned around, he found a red haired woman, with blue eyes standing in front of him. She had on a black button up and white pants, and a shield tied to her back. No doubt she was a lower ranking reaper, Guard probably.

"Your majesty!" she said in a timid voice, bowing. "It's your father! He doesn't have long..and the healers sent me-"

Ace cut her off, terrified, "Wait! What? What's wrong with my father?!"

"The radiation from above made him sick, the healers tried everything they can..but there's nothing else they can do."

The blonde turned to Floyd, tears building up in his blue eyes.

"C'mon we have to go see father, before it's too late!" He decided, turning around and running towards the castle, which was up ahead.

Floyd’s eyes widened in shock at the news, and he ran after Ace swiftly.

He was more confused than anything. The areas his team had scanned from above had shown a nontoxic amount of radiation. Where could he have been that the radiation was so bad it could kill? But what made him wonder the most was that the king was going up above.

He had no idea that the king had been going above. He didn't even think that was allowed because o the possible risk of radiation poisoning.

“Do you know what the King was doing up there? As far as I know, he shouldnt even be allowed up there!” Floyd exclaimed.

Ace ignored Floyd and kept running, his head spinning with the thoughts of his father. Instead, the read-headed Guard responded.

"He was going up there with a few of the higher up's sir, they where looking for more space to expand the kingdom and King Jay wanted to see the progress on the surface for himself, I overheard Commander Robinson speaking with someone, saying something about testing the living conditions." Her breathing heavy as she struggled to keep up with the prince and her superior.

"Apparently he was ill for a few days and then this morning he collapsed. The healers figured out what it was and said they could do nothing for it." Hearing the conversation going on behind him, Ace ran faster, finally reaching the large gates.

"Open the gates!" he commanded, quickly making his way to the large set of stairs leading to the front door of the large castle-like building.

“Shit,” Floyd cursed sharply. “Wherever those other guys took him obviousy wasn’t safe. They should have kept to the areas that we have already marked as habitable.”

Floyd ran up the set of stairs, but was stopped by one of the higher ups sharply. “Sir, if you don’t mind me asking, but what the hell were you thinking taking him out of the boundaries? Did you even do a scan to check the radiation?” He snapped.

The larger man nodded his head slowly. “We did do a scan,” he explained, “and it came back negative for radiation. Just like at all the other places.”

Floyds expression fell, and there was a clenching in his throat. “Negative? How..? Does that mean-?”

The man cut him off, saying, “All the places up there we have checked could have also had the deadly radiation and not picked it up. Any Reapers who have been to the upper area recently are being tested later this evening.”

Floyd felt sick upon hearing that. He could be infected? But there would have been signs. And how could the plants have gown if the radiation was still lethal?

Abana walked to the marketplace, brimming with excitement. She just recently became a reaper. But a healer too? She was confused. Two jobs? But she shrugged it off, proud to serve the king. She came into her home, and told her mother and father the news. She then laid down to rest, thinking over some things.

@RedEeveestar Of course! Just fill out the template, and if you are using a character you already have saved send it in as well. Remember to make sure your character isn't to OP!

We are in need of more trainees and Healers!

After running down the long, empty corridors of the palace, he ripped open the door to his parent's room, speed walking to his fathers bedside, taking his weak and tired hands in his own.

"Pai, what happened?" He whimpered, gently squeezing the kings hand.

"I don't have much time my son," he spoke out, voice hoarse as he began to cough.

"Father you can't leave us, who will rule the kingdom? We need you to lead! We-" He was cut off by his father, who gently ran his vacant hand through his son's blonde hair lovingly.

"Don't you worry child, I am leaving them in good hands, you are my son. The Reaper Prince, and soon you will take my name and throne. I know you will be a great king, you just have to find your own way."

"Pai, I can't do this alone." Ace said, his voice coming out in a whisper as he held his father's hand with both of his own. Jay let out a pained laugh, a gentle smile spread across his face.

"Who said you are doing this alone? You have our people, your loyal subjects who are willing to give their life for you. They know this won't be easy, and they will support you along the way." He began to cough again, weakly squeezing his Ace's hand, before letting out a 'make me proud, son' before closing his eyes, his face relaxing, a content smile spread across his face.

"Pai? Pai?!" Ace shook his father by his shoulders, face soaked with tears, "Help! Someone help!"

Hearing his cries both healers and reapers made their way into the room.

"Get him out of here."

Staring at the ground, frozen he allowed the pair of reapers pull him out of the room.

"Eu vou fazer você orgulhoso pai."

(okay great. thank you. I'll just write out Matthias)

Name: Matthias "Matt" Romark

Gender: male

Age: 22

Sexuality: very much gay

Rank: Healer

Weapon of Choice: Throwing knives/shurikens, bow-and-arrow, any gun. He likes long-distance weapons because that doesn't put him directly in danger but still very helpful. He knows basic self-defence when confronted so basically, he'll hit then run when encountered.

Appearance: He's 5'6" and 150 lbs with a thin, fragile-looking frame but has a very athletic build. Dark-tan/brown skin with freckles across his nose and cheeks. Fluffy black hair that's usually not brushed, dark-green eyes, tattoos on his arms and leading onto his chest, back, and shoulders.

Personality: He's pretty calm until angered, and then he becomes aggressive, like the Chill Drunk Uncle™. Blunt and abrasive but can be a softie. Sarcastic and witty with a dash of genius-intelligence. Chaotic-good/neutral and there seems to be a method to his madness when he heals. Organized chaos, only he knows where everything is but no one else does.

Other: He keeps a special liquor drawer in his office and is usually drunk to some extent whenever he is awake. Southern "Texas cowboy" accent and drawl

@RedEeveestar I love your character XD For some reason it reminds me of my cousin, (Which is a good thing)

@RedEeveestar Thanks!

Floyd hurried away from the other Reaper when he heard the screaming. He couldn’t be sick. He had more pressing matters to deal with at the moment.

He jogged over to where the other pair of Reapers had Ace, a worried expression on his face. He murmured quietly to one of the younger Reapers before shaking his head. He tugged Ace into a loose hug and rubbed the smaller boy’s back.

“I am so sorry,” he muttered, exhaling softly.

Abana got up to eat dinner. She prepared some rice and chicken for herself and parents. She doled out some for herself, but made sure there was plenty left for Mama and Baba. She ate in silence, waiting for her parents.
