(And lo, the people saw a great light from beyond the hill, as a great phoenix ascended into the sky, his golden feathers catching the flickering reflection of his flame)

("Hark!" they cried, "It looks like Gold is actually going to do something after basically sitting around and ignoring this RP's existence for like eleven days!")

(The great phoenix shrugged, nodding his head)

(And all was good)

Momotaros, Urataros, and Ryutaros get hit. Oof.

But let's not focus on them right now. Time to change gears and see who got dragged in through the portals.

As it so happens, three people of interest have been dragged through Tinker's portals. Two of them are rather similar in build - both are rather tall, and both are rather muscular (although one of them has a bit of a gut). Aside from that, however, they don't look very similar at all. One of them is an anthropomorphic bird covered in white feathers, wearing a black tuxedo suit and pants as well as a blue dress shirt and white tie. The other is an anthropomorphic dog covered in black fur, wearing a white tuxedo suit and pants as well as a red dress shirt and black tie. These two are Horace and Albus, respectively, and they serve as the current bodyguards to the singing sensation Eliza.

As it so happens, Eliza got portalled in as well.

At first, one might assume she's completely harmless. She does look like a rather stunning young woman, even if she admittedly has some help in that apartment thanks to her somewhat sensual Egyptian-themed clothing, but other than that? She doesn't look particularly athletic, and her clothes certainly don't seem practical for a fight. She seems like she poses no threat...and that's what she wants you to think. You see, everything about her appearance is completely changeable - it's all blood. Her skin, her clothes, her hair, all of it is just blood that she's molded into an ideal shape through the power of her Parasite, Sekhmet: a creature that's taken the place of Eliza's skeletal system and has since become nearly indistinguishable from Eliza in terms of personality. And thanks to Sekhmet, Eliza has lived for millennia, living by draining the blood of others and using blood as her weapon of choice by molding it into various forms to suit her needs.

Did I mention she wants to rule the world?

Yeah. Only real reason she has bodyguards is for public appearances and to keep company that doesn't really care that much about her nature as long as she pays them well enough.

Anyway.

''"Phew!" ''Anubis fans himself with his hand, panting. "You know, it is really hot in here..."

"Considering we appear to be near an active volcano, I'm not terribly surprised." Horace deadpans.

Eliza, meanwhile, is silent, musing over their sudden appearance of the portals. This...isn't anything like she's encountered before. Portals are new to her - which makes it rather interesting to consider...

Who or what is responsible for the portal's appearance?
