onyxarchivesbd9.png - "Deathly Docks" - Part 1

 

[hide=Deathly Docks - Part 1]The man stood with bated breath, under the Port Sarim docks. His clothes

 

were drenched from the freezing sea water inches below him. He was

 

finally starting to recover from the attacker who nearly killed him the

 

previous day. He was one of Gielinor's most wanted, and now he had

 

nothing to his name, except the torn, uncleaned clothes he wore.

 

 

 

He was terrified. He had no runes, nor could he get any from shops.

 

Thieving them from stalls would only rise his bounty. A small plan

 

was forming in his mind, however. He was well hidden under the docks.

 

He could sneak into the carter ship during the dead of the night, right

 

at this very moment, and not get caught. From there, he would stay until

 

the next night as the ship traveled to Catherby. It was his only chance.

 

 

 

He got up. His plan was ready to be put into action. He picked up some

 

seaweed that had been washed up, and laid it slowly onto his face. It

 

wasn't fool-proof camouflage, but it was something.

 

 

 

After 'picking-up' some left-over food from behind the back of a nearby

 

food store, he walked out onto the docks. The wooden parts of the deck

 

creaked as he walked on them. He boarded the ship. Unable to think of

 

where to hide on the massive ship, he took a few minutes to look around.

 

There was a small storage area, with a few empty crates. He looked around

 

for one that wasn't marked for delivery to Catherby, and climbed in.

 

 

 

* * *

 

 

 

He was sound-asleep when the violent jerk of the ship woke him up. He

 

hadn't sleep for days, and apparently if he had slept just a few more hours,

 

he would of been on the next Carther to Brimhaven, and it would of been

 

all over. He waiting for a half an hour to let all the crew/passengers get

 

off, and climbed out of the crate.

 

 

 

A horrible jolt of pain was sent through his spine, staying crouched in the

 

box for so long had taken a toll on him. The ship was a lot brighter than

 

it had been the previous night. He took a bite of the snack he had packed,

 

and got off the ship.

 

 

 

Few people were on the streets, walking home after their day-long fishing

 

excursions. The air smelled very fresh, different aromas of fish, crops, and

 

food mixed together to create an ususual yet satisfying atmosphere.

 

 

 

After a few more minutes of waiting, the streets were perfectly clear.

 

No one was in sight.

 

 

 

He was walking of the bridge when a terrible pain

 

ripped through his torso.

 

 

 

"Don't move, freak. Unless you're planning to die a whole lot faster."[/hide]

 

 

 

Two intimidating men stood in front of him. He could instantly tell by

 

their black and red mystic attire that they were magicians, and not

 

the friendly kind.

 

 

 

They had taken him by surprise, in his moment of weakness. He knew

 

if he tried to escape he would either be beaten to death with their battlestaves, or burned alive with a fire wave spell.

 

 

 

It wouldn't of mattered anyways, because a few seconds after the urge

 

to escape came to mind, an entanglement charm was cast upon him.

 

 

 

One of the two came forward very next to man in the tattered robes.

 

 

 

The man screamed unlike any scream had been heard before. The blood

 

spell lifted the blood right out of his very body and up into the night sky.

 

It floated to the tip of the man's battle staff, and appeared to be absorbed

 

by the mage. There was nothing he could do, except stand there and die.

 

He couldn't move, he couldn't fight back. He could only scream.

 

 

 

Darkness filled up the man's view like liquid being poured into a cup.

 

He fell back onto the dock, dead.

 

 

 

* * *

 

 

 

Or so it had seemed. Slowly, the man got up. It was still night, perhaps

 

an hour after the attack. He was well aware he probably only had an

 

ounce of blood left in his body, it was quite a miracle he wasn't dead.

 

He suddenly became aware of his surroundings. He was in some sort

 

of underground lab, noticeable by the silver contraptions and cool climate.

 

He felt the after-effects of a teleother spell on him. Why had the men taken

 

him here? Hadn't they thought he was dead?

 

 

 

His question was soon answered. On a nearby table, a few inches from the

 

center of the tile floor he was standing on, was some research. He slowly

 

crawled over and began to read one of the papers.

 

 

 

The element of moonlight is found in few people and can only be inherited

 

at birth. It holds great power, and is contained in the person's blood stream.

 

 

 

He gasped. Was he one of the few? It didn't make sense. He was a no-body.

 

A low-life. No one cared about him. He didn't even have a real name. But then why did they take him here? Why did they take his blood?

 

 

 

Thousands of questions swarmed viciously around his head, demanding

 

answers. He read on.

 

 

 

It is said that those possessing the element in their blood stream are to

 

be immortal. This is due to the heart self-producing more moonlight

 

even in its moment of inactivity.

 

 

 

That had explained why he had lived. No one had ever survived an attack

 

like that before.

 

 

 

Moonlight is one of the most desired elements of men due to its power.

 

Many of men have killed thousands to get there hands on the essence.

 

 

 

That explained why he was here.

 

 

 

It is said once those who have the essence of moonlight in their blood

 

can render certain forces of magic useless, giving them invincibility. A

 

great gif-

 

 

 

He took a strike to the head from a hard staff and fell cold onto the tile

 

floor. Another man, seeming to sport the same wizardly attire came in

 

and apparently spotted him.

 

 

 

"Still alive are you?", the man grunted. He picked up a nearby contraption

 

that looked like it was made of brass. He pressed down on a small switch

 

and the cogs inside the box began to spin. He held the cube to his mouth

 

and spoke.

 

 

 

"He is alive. I repeat. He is alive. Bring all troops in. This time he will die

 

for sure."

 

 

 

He switched the lever again and the cogs slowed to a stop.

I'm confused. :?

 

What exactly is project onyx?

 

 

 

A portal for all your Runescape needs, actually! And we don't release every month, more like every half-week! You can tell if theres a new 'issue' by looking at the build number (1.0.1 = old; 1.0.2 = new; etc.)

 

Even though you said that, I'm still a little :-k myself...

 

Portal, meaning its basically, it's just a site?

Project Onyx is a project offering informational/dynamic services for 'Scapers. The project is currently aimed to be used by Tip.Iters.

 

 

 

The project will basically be like a portal (see Web Portal on Wikipedia; "Portals present information from diverse sources in a unified way."), contained in topic on Tip.It Forums. However, instead of just information, it will host interactive 'services' intended to ease the lives of players.

Good Luck with.... \'

 

I am still kinda confused :-k :-k

 

From what I gather it's going to be a topic with dynamic sigs/etc, nothing new there.

 

 

 

Honestly, did you even read the descriptions? Project Onyx was created before you joined (I check the date you registered), which is why you're probably confused. Project Onyx could be compared simply to msn.com. If you go there, you'll notice stock quotes, weather information, current headlines, etc. This is basically what Project Onyx is, except Runescape/Tip.It-related. Project Onyx used to be huge, but since I came back I decided to bring it back. Dynamic signatures? :shock: Where did that come from? Our hearts skip a beat at the though of so much bandwidth bills...

I joined ScapeBoard backin 2002 \' so you're probably right, 'cos I had never heard of it, today is like first time.

 

You stated dynamic services, a dynamic service is something that updates itself, if that's the case I'd love to know how all of the things above listed is possible.
