Closed X: The step into other worlds

"Yeah, yeah. Save it for someone else." Zora smirked, brandishing her sword, "I'd expect that response from you, you little whore." she was fighting it off for now. The berserker. She had to. She was saving it.
"Let's dance." she took her fighting stance and lunged.
 
Jax walked outside to see Windfall.

"What are you doing? You look sad." Jax said.

Jax smiled.

"I know what will cheer you up." Jax said.

She started to sing. She was quite beautiful.

"Some things in life are bad,
They can really make you mad.
Other things just make you swear and curse.
When you're chewing on life's gristle,
Don't grumble, give a whistle,
And this'll help things turn out for the best, and..."

She giggled a bit then continued.

"Always look on the Bright side of life.
Always look on the right side of life...."

She kept on singing.

As Rayne and Aidan took the battle to behind the pillar and out of sight, Raith was in heavy battle with Yvette. She seemed to be an illusion, dodging nearly everything he threw at her.
"It's no use." She smiled, and kicked him square in the chest.
Meanwhile, Opal sidestepped Zora as she lunged quite easily.
"You know you shouldn't have done it. You shouldn't have fallen in love with him. Cons over pros, Zor."
 
"You..." Zora whipped around. Her green eyes were burning with rage. Her hair was beginning to turn white at the ends, and it was getting hard to hold the berserker back with the taunting.
"You have a lot of nerve, telling me what I should or shouldn't have done... Telling me that the best thing to ever happen to me was a mistake I never should've made... And personally, I'm not interested in hearing it... But worst, and most important... You called me something no one is ever allowed to call me... NEVER, EVER CALL ME THAT AGAIN!!" One could almost see fire spewing out of her mouth as she screamed this, she looked so angry. And slowly, the white was inching up her follicles. Manifesting itself into highlights in her red hair like last time. Her eyes still had not gone blank, the look in them adding more emphasis on how pissed off she really was.
"Now stop dancing around and chatting like a little girl and FIGHT!!"
-----------------
Back at the house everyone else was staying in, Spirit jolted, sitting bolt upright in her bed.
"Aw no... Either that was a bad dream or Zora's really fighting Opal right now and she just called her Zor. Everyone and their grandmother knows only Rhythm is allowed to do that..." she whispered, "Either way, I need to find her. Now." she got up, and, turning invisible and making as little noise as she possibly could, slipped out the door in the direction they had gone in.
---------------
Windfall glanced at Jax and smiled a bit.
"Thanks..."

((Just a note, Flareth: Don't follow Spirit.))
 
With Opal's sneer gone, she finally withdrew her blade and held it tightly.
"Don't deny the truth, Zor. I didn't want to fight you, but it seems like I must." She groaned, now attempting to strike the first hit with a slash.
 
In a small town in California, a old woman stirred. She opened one eye lazily.

"I sense....a disturbance." the woman said.

------

Jax stroked her hair.

"Why'd you come out here, hun?" she asked.

(xDDD)
 
"I'm denying no truth." Zora growled, blocking her slash rather easily. But... that last part didn't compute. She'd always shown her face to fight. Why didn't she want to now? As she pondered this, she slashed in retaliation. Why?
------------
Spirit dashed as fast as she could toward the source of the wavelengths she was feeling. Until she found a literal hole in the air. It led into a sort of laboratory, and she wandered inside. There was quite a ruckus going on in a door up ahead and, trying to block out the view of the stuff to her side, she wandered to the door and peered inside. Sure enough, there they were. It looked like three individual fights. And over on the right... Zora! Fighting Opal! She was glad she was still invisible as she slipped over to where they were. A good distance away, mind you.
-------------
"No reason..." Windfall sighed, staring at the sky. She couldn't tell her about the wish, no way.
 
Jax led Windfall into the house.

"I'm gonna go check on Fairwind." she said, walking towards her room.
 
(zomg i know that old lady :O
haha kidding)

As Opal deflected the slash, a flicker of sadness showed on her face for a split second before going back to the expression of neutrality.
"If this is what you want..." she muttered mostly to herself, then blinked. Why was she feeling down about fighting Zora? Her hatred towards the red-head should have been enough to put up an actual fight.
 
Zora, for a moment, almost looked disappointed in herself. She'd just barely heard Opal, and it looked like a tear was forming at her eye before her face changed back to a neutral expression.
"I... I really don't..." she admitted very quietly. She'd hoped she'd heard, for some odd reason. Why was she feeling so regretful? Surely her hatred would keep her fighting, but the rage, it was... fading, bizarrely. Slowly, but somehow it was.

Opal's mind was somewhere else the moment Zora had spoken, so she sighed as if Zora had said nothing. She quickly dashed forwards and slashed with all the might she could muster out of her hatred.
 
Zora blocked the slash, simply staring at her. Why on earth did she feel such regret for all the fighting? As she thought on this, the white in her hair faded back to red. She slashed back half-heartedly, with every drop of hatred she could muster. But she didn't want to. It showed strongly in her eyes though her face remained neutral.
"I'm... sorry..." she mouthed. It was getting hard to hold up her sword.
Spirit blinked. Was that a flicker of sadness she'd seen on their faces before? It almost seemed as if they wanted the fighting to stop, Zora most of all.
"What the...?" she whispered.
 
Opal stared for a moment, then grimaced and threw her sword down.
"My hatred will never end. You left me no choice when you caused it to formulate."
"Opal, what are you doing?!" Rayne yelled to her, still in heavy combat with Aidan.
"I'm leaving this place." she yelled back, then ran through the open rift.
------
Raiquen blinked open his eyes. He heard footsteps outside, and slowly grabbed his sword. Quietly as possible, he stepped towards the ajar door and burst outside. He let out an angry but relieved breath when he saw the familiar brown hair.
"You gave me a start." Rai growled, staring at Jax.
 
Zora stared at where she'd left. What was this? She knew as well as anyone that they were destined to hate each other, but... Why did she feel so much like that could change? With that in mind she dropped to her knees.
"I just want to know why we have to hate each other..." she whispered, letting her tears fall freely. It was at that moment that Spirit faded back into visibility and ran up to her.
"I saw that whole thing... I saw the sadness on your faces... What was that back there?!"
"We're destined to hate each other, right...? So why do I feel like I want that to change so badly...?"
"I'm personally surprised."
"I don't know anymore... Do I want to see her dead...? Do I want all this to stop...? So confused..."
----------------------
Meanwhile, back with the others, a teenage girl woke up at the calling of her name. Her white hair, with the purple highlights throughout it, was messed up, and her gray eyes glared at the door.
"Relax! I'm right here! Shut up and let me sleep!"
 
At the sight of Opal gone, Rayne sighed.
"Yvette, let's get out of here!"
"Don't tell me what to do!" Yvette yelled back, and they both ran away from their attackers through the rift.
"We had them too..." Raith muttered, rubbing a minor wound.
------
"Not you, be quiet." Raiquen muttered. Soon, however, he realized that that wasn't Sephii's voice.
"Who are you?" He asked, gripping his decorated sword tightly.
