Princess Ishtar de Pheliosta

Conditional: Brief summary of previous RP history: a_facility

[ October 2009 ]

Early October Ishtar found herself in Facility. It was a strange place. Ishtar is surprised and didn't know where she was. She asked for help and received it from Duzell, who was currently there a while longer than her, and another person. The importance of this month; she met a few people and got brutally tormented by Duzell during Amnesia week, where he had forgotten who she was. He threw her against walls and cut her up pretty badly.

Ishtar was pretty much immobile for a while, but she also managed to try to save a boy from Duzell's grasp, but she failed to do so and hence, more injuries ensue. Ishtar then learned what experiments really were at Facility. It wasn't anything she experienced before and she was exposed to a new level of pain and mental struggle. A majour event of that month was the Black Water Plot that was going around. Ishtar ended up drinking some of the water that the silver haired men ushered her to drink and she became pretty much a servant of Kadaj and his brothers for a short amount of time and wreaking havoc under mind control. She was not happy about the outcome later. Ishtar was really angry that she had left herself vulnerable to that point. Ishtar had to learn to be more careful and not do many dangerous things, but it seems danger always seemed to attach itself to her on a daily basis.

[ November 2009 ]

The first Facility 3 Experiment Ishtar experienced was 'Death City.' She stuck with Duzell most of the time and offered to help here and there. Ishtar also gradually used her magic a bit more then. The girl wasn't involved in anything too important, but it seemed that there were never ending fights between the fellow residents there. There were zombies on the loose as well.

Ishtar was cornered and then Duzell saved her poor butt in the process. She then tried to convince him to help out people at the clinic that was set up. He reluctantly agreed and Ishtar was running around trying to help people as well. The following week after the whole Zombie fiasco Ishtar got her sword back, thanks to Duzell, and the experiment this time was the Hinamizawa Syndrome, which caused a lot of people going crazy left and right. Ishtar was paranoid and easily angered. She almost pointed her sword at someone. A lot of people died that week. At the end of the month, Ishtar asked Duzell to teach her about fighting and holding a sword correctly. She wanted to help others out but with proper training. Duzell agreed and they started out. Ishtar was practicing by herself for a while, but she was failing miserably at it.

[ December 2009 ]

Someone wasn't happy with her klutzy actions, and asked if she wanted some help. Ishtar agreed but he made her get up early and go to the bio dome. Ishtar agreed and went there. He trained her for a few good hours, though it didn't go as planned in the end when she tripped on a rock doing a task and landing a cut on the current teacher. He was unhappy, but she also learned something shocking. Duzell was also there watching silently, and Ishtar was unaware that he was a little more or less angry at her...or the person she was getting help from. At least she was training, right?. That's what she asked him. The following week she got body-swapped and learned what it was like to be a man. It wasn't a very pleasant experience either. She had to help Duzell corner the guy that had his body too since the guy was evil and if he could access Duzell's magic, it would be fatal for a lot of people.

'Wish Week' experiment rolled around and Seiliez ended up being sent there for some time. Ishtar was racking her brain trying to protect him while at the same time keeping Duzell away from him. To relieve some stress, she and her beloved cousin got in to a cake fight with the food in the cafeteria. Someone made a wish for Duzell to be his old self and he was around mutilating and killing people. Ishtar once again became a victim to his torments. Duzell used a knife this time and cut her up harshly. Ishtar was covered in wounds for a while along with bite marks. Duzell was very guilty about it and he spent most of the time helping Ishtar get better. 'Sin Week,' experiment hit Ishtar with the sin of 'Pride.' Ishtar was being much of a princess at this point, ordering Duzell around and the like.

[ January 2010 ]

'Dinosaur Week,' Ishtar was stranded in the middle of a massive jungle. She was swinging her sword left and right blindly. It was a failure for her to even do that. She was saved by two people. She was grateful to them for it. After that Duzell found her and she pretty much stuck with him for the time being. She even slept in the middle of the jungle a few times and had poor Duzell carry her back and being a creeper he was, stroking her hair and touching her face. It was a small bonding time between Ishtar and Duzell. There was a massive fight right before they got back to Facility 1 and pretty much anything within the premise was destroyed. The following week was an event that had the residents think they could escape. Ishtar wanted to squeeze some information from those doctors but she didn't get a chance to. She got injured again in the process with a broken ankle.

Duzell at that time felt rather guilty so he kept an eye on her and healed her in various places. Ishtar then fell sleep on his shoulder while he watched her silently. The following week was an 'Age Regression,' experiment in which Ishtar had turned back into a five year old. The significance of this event was the fact that Duzell got even closer to Ishtar. Ishtar actually had a chance to live a childhood she never really had. She played with the little children and made friends with a lot of them. She even created messes that she wouldn't usually be able to do. It was a relatively fun time for her, but as soon as she was returned to normal, Ishtar hid herself in embarrassment since she had called herself a princess a thousand times as a little girl. There was a good chance that everyone knew that she was a princess by now.

[ February 2010 ]

It was Valentine’s Month and Ishtar made Valentine cards for every one of her precious friends and family since she had no access to chocolate or anything to make it with. She stuck with the simple stuff. She bonded some more with more of her friends and Duzell being a creeper definitely enjoyed her card the most. Ishtar still seemed ignorant about his feelings for her. She was attached to him even more at this point since he was all that she had for the time being.

He was her only connection from home. At this point during the Valentines' week, people were randomly dying and it was becoming problematic to Ishtar, who was very protective of people and their lives in general. It made the usual cheerful princess very upset and worried. She was scared that they might not return, though Duzell reassured her that they certainly will and that she shouldn't be too concerned with them. It was easier said than done of course. Ishtar was, after all, different from most of her family. She cared about people no matter who they were.

[ March 2010 ]

The beginning of this month was an experiment that caused most of the residents' left or right hand to have a mind of its own. Ishtar, being unable to control situations as she wanted to, was being forced to run around with her sword frenzied right hand. She was stopped by Duzell and a few others, but she wasn't able to stop it herself. She also had yet another vampire encounter with someone very close to her. She was worried about his hand and almost got bit in the process of fixing that hand. Still, Ishtar wasn't very scared of him or worried that she might end up screwed. She was more worried about that person than herself.

The following week, she spent her time relaxing and learning how to use a Karaoke machine. It was fun and she had a good time with the friend she spent it with. The experiment for Facility 3 was 'London,' and that's when Ishtar learned about a Corset for the first time and how it killed her when she was put in it. During that time she also managed to dress up little kitten Duzie for her own twisted amusement. He looked adorable but Ishtar wanted more frills and what not on a the vampire cat. It didn't last long but Ishtar had fun. She then had to ask Duzell personally to remove that evil Corset on her back because she really couldn't move the way she wanted with it on.

[ April 2010 ]

The next week was an unpleasant week that Ishtar wanted to forget. All the residents were hit with a 'Disorder' which caused them to behave out of character for the week. Ishtar didn't care about her safety, and the more people that were worried, the more eager she was to defy them and do reckless things. Ishtar apologized for her behaviour and spent most of her time in her room cursing the doctors that kept doing things like that to her. She really hated it. The week following that was really bad. For some odd reason, the experiment was turning everyone into vampires physically. They had fangs and craved blood, but only half of the residents were vampires. The rest were humans or pretty much prey. Ishtar refused to drink anyone's blood and someone else was very unhappy with the outcome of the situation for her. It didn't help that Ishtar figured out she was a vampire for the week by meeting Yujinn, who had just recently found himself here.

Duzell obviously wouldn't let her get away with it, so he demanded she drink his blood. Ishtar refused and coiled into a little ball. The vampire king eventually forced her to drink his blood by cutting himself and shoving the bloodied wrist towards her direction. Yujinn even offered a cup of blood so she didn't have to bite him. It was a hard situation for Ishtar and she refused it until she couldn't any longer. She eventually did feed from Duzell for the duration of the week and while doing that, felt rather guilty. Ishtar then dreamed of her own home from way back when she was La Naan. A small dream brought out an interesting conversation with one of her friends. Ishtar enjoyed speaking with them about her world mainly because they knew of it already. Ishtar then had a nightmare after that and totally was shaking out of surprise and anxiety. She really didn't like it, but she had no choice but to deal with it. Duzell comforted her as well as Yujinn who refused to leave her alone. The other few who cared deeply for Ishtar also tried to comfort her in their own ways. It was very kind of them.

There was an off week during this month and the worst part was, all the people that were recently terminated were seen in a video that ridiculously disturbed Ishtar beyond comprehension. Ishtar had a small breakdown and started to cry. She even lost her usual self. She was pretty much quiet and disturbed for the remainder of the week. Duzell had to check up on her daily and made sure she wasn't having mental breakdowns. Ishtar was definitely going to through an emotional turmoil. She was the type that cared about the people that had been terminated and seeing them in the state of incinerators and discarded as if they had no use, made her upset and angrered that she couldn't do anything for these people. She felt so utterly useless this time. She wanted to become stronger.

[ May 2010 ]

Ishtar had been affected by the 'OOC Experiment' where the characters acted the opposite of how they usually were. Ishtar was a bit creepy on her own accord, but it was pretty much something she didn't like as well. Ishtar had fun poking fun out of Gaara and making some snide remarks that she usually didn't make on a daily basis. Ishtar actually had manners that week and was pretty much talking formally for the whole week. She even graced one of the vampires with dinner where he supposedly made a meal out of her as well. Oh, the fun of being a vampire's victim. Ishtar really needed to stop being a vampire magnet, but that didn't really matter since she was always attracting things like vampires and demons. Anything that was supernatural, Ishtar pretty much attracted. Ishtar broke out in a frenzy of worry after that wondering where Yujinn had went. She even asked for help from some other people.

They gladly agreed. Even Duzell assisted her in helping find Yujinn. She was glad that she had them to help her find the man. When Yujinn responded to her that he was okay and in his room, Ishtar carried over water and food for him. She made sure that he ate and wanted to heal him if he needed it as well. There was a doll experiment and Ishtar had a really cute doll that looked exactly like one of her friends. She even asked them about it, but in the end she kept the doll for herself since it was useless when the experiment was over. It sat over the top of her bed along with the other plushes she kept from the 'Voodoo Experiment.' Ishtar was subjected to sexual harassment by one of the Shinigamis there, and in exchange for not making her feel so uncomfortable, she agreed to be his friend. The other people didn't approve but the Shinigami was happy that she agreed. He stopped molesting her doll and Ishtar was okay with it for a while.

She actually learned quite a lot about this person as well. She threw a fit before she actually got the guy to agree. She didn't like her doll being in the hands of a stranger, so she had to make sure he wouldn't do anything too bad with it. She refused to remember the fact that he bathed with her voodoo doll and she was shivering the whole time while he bathed with it. Ishtar was sent home from Facility for a while with a canon update to the whole showdown with Duzell and Lassen. Ishtar came back a little disoriented and covered in a few bruises from comforting someone really close to her before she had been taken home. As soon as she got back to Facility, Ishtar was frantically searching for Duzell and Yujinn and worried that they weren't here any longer. She was reassured that they were fine, though. It was a good relief for the princess.

[ June 2010 ]

Someone secretly put some sand into her anklet while she wasn't looking. Ishtar was surprised by it but it protected her from impending doom. The owner of the sand clearly had a fun time explaining it to her and that it was his doing. Ishtar was very much glad that she had extra defense mechanism for her own safety. The girl pretty much thanked her friend for the protection and spending some time with him chatting before he left to do his thing. As soon as the experiment of 'Rapture' was over in Facility 3, Ishtar was returned to her room with an extra pair of ears and a tail. Needless to say a certain butler had a fun time serving her tea and stroking her ears and tail. He really enjoyed her alterations, while Ishtar wondered why she even had a tail and ears in the first place, but of course it was an experiment. She didn't complain about it too much.

Ishtar also found out during the last week of 'Rapture' that Duzell had been canon regressed to an earlier point. He doesn't have any memories of their time together, but Ishtar did and felt saddened by it. She was strangely getting attached to Duzell in ways she had never thought of before. She really cared about the vampire king, but she hadn't thought about her feelings towards him for a while. She was in love with Darres after all. It took more than a Facility of experiments to stop her from loving the man she loved but still the girl felt a strange attachment to Duzell, despite him not remembering anything that was important after all. She supposed it was for the best. Ishtar didn't complain too much about it at this point. She just went with it.

[ July 2010 ]

The next experiment that happened was the experiment that tested people's mentalities. There was a bomb in everyone's heart and they had to survive by controlling their emotions. If they grew too angry or too upset, they would explode into nothing. Ishtar's communication device was confiscated by Duzell and she was forced to remain in a vacant room with Duzell on watch so that she didn't end up dead from all the people exploding. Ishtar made a few visits to one of her good friends while he was asleep but that was it. Yujinn also had assisted in keeping her in check as well. Ishtar got caught up in vines as soon as she was out of her room after the previous experiments. She was definitely not a happy girl. She was saved, however. Ishtar then lost yet another very important person to her. She was not as upset as she would have been, but she had said her farewell to him sincerely while remaining in his empty room for some time.

She started to speak to her best friend again and he was asking her about her home. Ishtar went into detail finally about her home world and what it was like living there. She even told him about Duzell and everything they did together. She left the cat part out since no one knew about that, yet. She trusted her friend to this extent because he had always been a big help to her and she was happy that he was there for her. She didn't know what else to do without him and the countless others that had pushed her through the hard times such things like that. After that, she ended up speaking with her best friend again about her love and interest. She also learned that Duzell, despite what form he had taken right now, had been in love with her. She was really shocked to hear this and denied it for the longest times since she refused to believe it was true. She didn't think that Duzell of all people would fall in love with her.

He was the proud and merciless vampire king. Why would he want to be in love with a princess who was the great-granddaughter of his enemy? It just didn't make any sense, but still she couldn't believe what she was hearing. Ishtar then started to think about the situation in her own mind and wondered if it was really true. If she wanted to know more she had to ask Duzell about it. She really had to. Ishtar took a very long time to think about it before she decided what time was the right time to ask Duzell about such things.

[ August 2010 ]

When August rolled around, there was the 'Giant Spiders Experiment' in which all the subjects were surrounded by poisonous spiders. Ishtar didn't kill things without a good reason or if she was in a lot of danger. Since there was neither in her case. She kept backing up into a wall and tried to shoo them off to her best ability. Sadly, it wasn't helping her and she definitely didn't know what else to do but run. She didn't get a chance to do that but someone did come and save her from the spiders. Ishtar was really not getting used to needing protection since it was even more here than it was at home. Ishtar proceeded to help him clean off the gunk that was in his hands. It was a fun interesting conversation. She managed to make her friend walk off in anger, but she was happy nonetheless. The 'Gender Swap Experiment' rolled around and Ishtar was forced to be a man for the week. She was pretty much very unhappy about it but adjusted to it almost the same as always.

She was used to this. Ishtar wasn't too surprised about it anymore. She had interesting conversations with her friends and helped other people here and there accordingly, because they didn't know about female traits and what not. That same friend that had saved her from the spiders was a girl for the week and she, needless to say, had tons of fun teasing him throughout the whole event, up until he threw her into the river for revenge. Even then, Ishtar was a giggling idiot and didn't seem to even care about being soaked from head to toe. She just enjoyed her time and moments of rare happiness with her friend, who was now more like a brother to her than anything. She even teased Duzell a few times about his gender problems as well. She got in trouble later for allowing herself to be thrown into the river but it was worth it so very much. Yujinn burrowed her clothes that week and strutted happily as a woman while Ishtar just giggled her head off. She helped one of the residential kids into a dress as well since they didn't want to walk around in male clothes because of the ethics of his world.

[ September 2010 ]

Ishtar was more than happy to assist. She had a fun conversations with a few others. During another Facility 3 Experiment, Ishtar was lost and she had some people help her find her way around the place. At this point Ishtar knew fairly well about fighting and could decently fight her way through enemies if she so chose to. Ishtar was kidnapped by a bunch of slavers during the second week of 'Abyssal Facility 3 Experiment.' Her friends did try to get in contact with her quickly and save her as well. She managed to give useful information to the people she cared about and only prayed that she would get out of this in one piece. When she was saved, she was pretty bruised up and mentally unstable from all the pain and stuff that she had to go through. Ishtar had a ton of wounds that would require a lot of time to heal. She was not prepared to die just yet, so she had to hold on while Yujinn and Duzell broke the front lines and made their way to come and protect her. Amazingly they all managed to rescue her and get out in one piece. Yujinn was injured pretty badly.

They were wounds that could be healed in time. Ishtar was grateful that her friends were okay and that they weren't too injured. She was also grateful to them for saving her the way they did. It was a dangerous situation. The slavers were mutated human beings and they were pretty strong, but luckily, not strong enough. Ishtar had to take some time to recover from her trauma. During her stay in her room, Ishtar had some assistance from a boy she never knew but he was kind enough to heal her remaining wounds that Yujinn didn't get to yet. Ishtar thanked him and she realized she had made a new friend as well. Ishtar was a little content on that. While she was still recovering, they had terminated Duzell, and Ishtar was in a lot of pain from losing someone that was so close to her. She was curled up in a fetal position for some time and tried to regain her own sanity. She was comforted by a few people, but she didn't accept it as much as she should have. Ishtar then also lost her brother figure and best friend that she had been just as attached to and then her best friend.

Ishtar pretty much couldn't talk for the remainder of the week and just stayed in her room quietly, and tried to be a strong person. She again, felt an overwhelming pain of uselessness. She wanted to be able to protect others, but she couldn't. She wasn't strong enough. She really regretted that at this point. After that suffering for a few days, she actually managed to get back up and ask Yujinn to help her with his magic abilities. She wanted him to teach her more magic. She was determined to learn as much as she could from her magic teacher and cousin. That way she would be strong enough to protect people. It was a bad week to do so, because, Ishtar accidentally turned Yujinn into a woman by the wrong incantation from her lips. Ishtar thought that she was fine, that everything wasn't as bad as it seemed, but when she was collared to another man she didn't know during the 'Collared Experiment,' she broke down in front of him. The man tried his best to comfort her and later she had thanked him for helping her out. She proceeded to learn a bit about the man during the week.

[ October 2010 ]

The next Facility 3 Experiment was 'Venice.' It was a beautiful place and as soon as she got there, Ishtar wanted to spar with someone. She managed to get at least three or four people to agree to do that with her and she learned quite a bit from them, while getting her butt whooped for a good duration of the time. Ishtar then spent some time with Yujinn on a small mini date with her cousin. They ate good food and toured the rest of Venice. The second week in Venice, there was the 'Evil Twins Experiment,' where most of the residents had evil twins and they were out to kill their original. Ishtar didn't run into her twin yet, but she did get caught up in a lot of things. She managed to get stalked by and Anti, and then ran into the middle of a fight between a bunch of Shounen fighting characters that were about to blow off a large portion of Venice. Ishtar, needless to say, was trying her best to stay out of the way or help out to the best of her abilities.

Ishtar then proceeded to end up being attacked by Yujinn's evil twin and almost got killed. She was covered in a lot of wounds, but managed to take down the evil clone for the time being. Ishtar frantically looked for the inn she left Yujinn at, so that the two of them could get away from all the craziness of the evil twins. Ishtar had to be careful since she had to find her own twin, while and also running away from evil twins and stalking Anti-Sora. It was a hectic week for Ishtar most definitely.

Their return to Facility 1 was as usual. The week was simply very calm and collected. Ishtar herself didn't do much for that week except catch up with magic lessons and some self-defense. She spent her time speaking and getting acquainted with the new people that found themselves in Facility. After reset again, Ishtar was faced with poltergeists that were throwing her things around and trying to literally kill her. She managed to shred some of their attacks but apparently it wasn't very pleasant. Afterwards, right before, Halloween she was haunted by a bunch of poltergeists an experiment that the Facility was conducting.

[ November 2010 ]

Ishtar ended up being aged up a couple of years, assuming that she had two kids and married, like the canon ending. Ishtar was highly confused that a couple of years had passed since she was here, because of the experiment. She had been offered to help find her children, and she gladly accepted. Of course, Ishtar already knew there were little chances of that. As usual Ishtar, ended up playing the maternal/parental role for most of the little five year old children that were around, including her cousin/magic teacher. Ishtar freaked out after the experiment, remembering absolutely nothing about the previous week. Axel tried to help her out by trying to explain things to her.

Which didn't really help, but it was better than nothing. At least she got a grasp of what happened. Ishtar freaked out during the next experiment where mostly everyone was naked, and no one had clothes, except the younger people. Ishtar really screamed about that for a while until she gave in. She also talked with a couple of people regarding that as well. She still couldn't figure out why Syaoran was blushing like mad.

[ December 2010 ]

Facility 3 experiment. Everyone was in a camp like location, and as usual, things started off smoothly before they either exploded or there were dead bodies lying around and then the week after was the return of the Hinamizawa Syndrome. It was pretty much crazy for a while until the experiment was over. She tried to help Ciel and almost ended up getting thrown off by the little boy, but at least she managed to calm him down before anything bad happened. December ended on a sour note for her.

[ January 2011 ]

Ishtar gets brutally harassed by the Shadow Experiment. Her Shadow continued to scream at her things that were painful and true, as well as lies. Ishtar couldn’t take it anymore and allowed Yujinn to help out. They ended up locking her in Ishtar's room for the week. Ishtar disliked that week very much. Ciel apologized to Ishtar about the week before with the Hinamizawa Syndrome. Ishtar forgave him for that while dealing with the pest that was her Shadow.

Not so long after that, Ishtar was confined with Deshwitat in a room while the doctors found ways to mentally break her and the vampire. In the end, Ishtar ended up with a lot of brutal wounds and a lot of blood sucking from Deshwitat. She could barely move and required a lot of medical and mental attention. A lot of her friends managed to get to her and heal her wounds while trying to calm her down. Eventually she was put to sleep by Yujinn and that week ended in a calm note. At least as calm as it could be for something like that. Ishtar would never be able to get those memories out of her mind.

[ February 2011 ]

Body swapping experiment. Ishtar ended up being a troll for the week and she wasn't a happy camper. She didn’t even know why she had gray skin or why she had horns. Ishtar was also recovering still, so her mind was a little off that week. She then warned the person to take care of her body and also take care of her sword in the process. Sidia couldn't fall into the wrong hands. After the body experiment, it seemed like there was another Facility 3 experiment. They were all in Gotham City, and everyone was dealing with bad guys and The Earl. The Earl ended up affecting Yujinn with the Akuma, and Ishtar called out for help from Allen and Komui. Allen ended up exorcising the akuma piece from Yujinn's body.

Ishtar also forced her help on Deshwitat and helped heal his wounds when he offered to stay with her until Allen came. Ishtar was glad to have that friendship with the vampire, even though she felt bad about hurting him, and that he had to deal with the burden of hurting her as well. Not that she was ever angry with him. She forgave the vampire no matter what, since he was her friend.

[ March 2011 ]

Ishtar got reverted in age again, and was screaming for attention as most little kids do! She ended up making friends with Gamzee, and Yujinn got turned into a woman. So she was with Yujinn for the duration of the week, trying to stay out of trouble as a little kid, but that didn’t usually last long before something bad happened. At then end of the week, she and a lot of the little kids had a sleepover with a lot of the other little kids. When Reset hits and they were all back to normal again, she woke up a little delusional and concerned.

With the help of Lavi and Axel, she managed to get out of the mess that was Tykki's room and back to her room. This also was a little complicated due to the Ice Experiment, where the floor was covered in ice and if they didn't know how to walk on it, they'd slip and slide. Someone also did a wonderful job setting off the sprinklers again. Ishtar was a wet sopping mess and was minourly irritated for that week. She found the culprit and mouthed off to them as she always did, whenever she got a little angry.

[ April 2011 ]

They were in the 3rd Facility again, and this time, it was the Labyrinth. Ishtar ended up being affected by the experiment as she kept running after what appeared to be Duzell, but in reality, there was no one there that she had been chasing. She ended up mistaking Yujinn and Harry B. Dresden for Duzell. She ended up experienced a really awkward moment with Harry before she finally snapped out of her trance and ran off, and leaving the man behind since he thought she was his girlfriend. Yujinn ended up convincing her out of her delusion and back to reality. She realized how long it had been since she had seen the vampire king, and how much she missed her vampire kitty, who was with her most of her time here.

In the end, she really did miss the people she couldn't see anymore.

Ishtar and Kharg get drunk during another experiment, which was really bad for the both of them. They were enjoying it way too much and Darc had to try to push some sense into their delusional states. Darc’s yelling didn't stop them from going on with their fun times and eventually, they got Yujinn to join them in on their insanity. There were broken bottles and tangled arms and legs everywhere. Good thing nothing too bad happened. They were just dancing on the tables before one of them got injured. Ishtar and Kharg eventually ended up with pain from the hangover a few days later.

[ May 2011 ]

Ishtar played a prank on Darc and ended up getting injured by him. He was also very pissed off at her for the time being. Ishtar ran off to hide behind Kharg so Darc didn’t kill her, but that didn't really end in her favour. Kharg said it was okay for her to hide in his room for the time being. Ishtar then played with Kharg's hair and puts it up in a pretty ponytail. Darc ended up catching the accidental recording and yelled at the both of them, as well as mouthing off to Ishtar, who seemed completely unaffected by his anger. She wasn't even scared of the fact that he could possibly kill her. That was Ishtar.

Ishtar was still hiding in Kharg's room for the next week and hit with the most annoying experiment of the year. Everything was amplified and hearing whispers was like hearing someone yell in your ears. She ended up texting Kharg and people without saying anything. She even offered Axel some help in shutting people up if they kept yelling so loudly over the networks. Their ears may not hurt, but Ishtar's and other people's were. The following week, all their pain and suffering was being broadcast on the TVs for all to see. Ishtar ended up scratching at old scars at the horrific sight.

She clearly didn't want to remember all that pain and suffering she had to go through and the number of people she had lost along the way. Eventually, Yujinn blew up the speakers for her and others convinced her to look away from the TV and not cause anymore pain for herself. Then her dreams had to be shown through the network, and Ishtar ended up having yet another nightmare littered with bloodied bodies and mutilated corpses. She ended up running off and gaining some comfort from some of her friends as they tried to calm her down.

[ June 2011 ]

Hurt Your Loved Ones Week: Ishtar tried to avoid all possible confrontations with her friends or family but she ends up running into Roxas and they ended up kicking each other at random times while apologizing. She got some bruises from it and Roxas did too. After that, she encountered Yujinn and they pretty much beat each other up for a while before they settled down. The worst part was, Ishtar ended up running into Kurama of all people. He was one of her good friends and a powerful demon. That didn't help her when he decided it was a good time to get rough with her.

Kurama ended up using his Rose Whip on her, and opened wounds on her body before he decided to plant his seeds into her skin. Afterwards, Ishtar was suffering the painful feeling of being burned inside out. She was begging for him to stop, and eventually, Kurama removed the plants...as slowly and painfully as possible while Ishtar was trying to recover from all the pain inside her body. Eventually, Kurama ran off and Ishtar had to get some medical help from a person that Kurama requested help from. Minako ended up healing her and carrying her back to her room. Ishtar then had an awkward conversation with Kurama after the whole ordeal. Of course, she forgave him as she forgave all the friends that hurt her.

[ July 2011 ]

Ishtar was comatose for some time before waking up in an unknown location. Yujinn had to find her again with his tracking spell, and luckily for the both of them, nothing really happened while Ishtar was out. At least that was what Yujinn said. She couldn't exactly believe everything her cousin told her, considering that he often lied to her as well. Roxas and Lavi helped her learn about the place as well. After a while, she asked if anyone wanted to help her spar and a good number of people agreed. Ishtar was pretty happy about getting some help and training from her friends and allies.

Darc took her up on her offer and Ishtar agreed to spar with him. It seemed like their relationship was becoming a bit better, even if it was still a little distant.

[ August 2011 ]

Ishtar got orders and she had to tell the masses something rather embarrassing. She ended up naming most of her guy friends and how nice they would look in a dress or female clothes, etc. Ishtar was going to slam her head against the wall but it seemed like some of the people there enjoyed it very much and encouraged it while others wondered if she really would do that to them. Ishtar had to admit, she might have thought about it once or twice, but eventually decided in her best interest and theirs, not to do something like that ever. Duzell and Yujinn had enough of her cross dressing shenanigans.

Zombies were attacking and Ishtar was not happy with it. She also asked Yujinn if it was a good idea to use Holy Magic on them, since it worked on the Zombies that were in their world. Ishtar then spoke with Ritsuka about avoiding a certain room and she agreed to do just that.

If the Zombies weren't already bad enough,. Ishtar got body swapped with Yusuke and she was beyond flustered. She broke doors and had abnormal demonic strength, on top of the sickness that she inherited from Yusuke dying the week before. It was just wonderful, wasn't it? Yukina made things better by assuring her that she would always be Ishtar's friend, and Ishtar felt like she was seeing another Falan.

[ September 2011 ]

Ishtar was helping with defenses at the clinic and she clearly wasn't doing a really good job. At least she was trying. She met up with Yujinn and talked with Komui beforehand. She wanted to make sure that everyone had a safe place to get to, and that if they required healing, that it would be offered to them. She wasn't someone who would let others get hurt and not help them out. She had a rather amusing conversation with Yusuke regarding the body swap and how Yusuke did something ridiculous with her sword. Yujinn ended up dying yet again.

Ishtar was pissed off at him and locked herself in her room during that week, and refusing to talk with him. She was also throwing things here and there at her cousin because he died on her and left her by herself again. Even if people came back to life, she didn't condone death. She hated seeing people die whether it was a simple death or a violent one. She couldn't bear to see the people she loved dying on her. As punishment, Ishtar got to write Yujinn an essay, and the essay got halfway written before she ended up sleeping on it.

She then got rudely interrupted and threw things at the intruder that kept annoying the living daylights out of her while she was trying to take a nap.

[ October 2011 ]

Maka lost someone close to her and sought out Ishtar and her other friends. Ishtar ran over to her friend and lets her cry her eyes out about her loss. Ishtar knew how it felt to lose someone, so she stayed there until Maka was feeling better. Afterwards, Ishtar turned in her late essay paper to Yujinn after telling him he might have been out for a couple of weeks or so. Ishtar ended up losing Lavi and felt upset, but she refused to show it on her face. He'll come back;. That's that was what she was telling herself, as she saw his scarf dangling from the plants. Soubi ended up losing Rituska and Ishtar tried to help him out with the situation, but it didn't seem like she could do much. There was so much pain this month.

So an underwear thief was going around stealing undergarments. Female undergarments to be exact. Ishtar just told the girl to keep them since she didn't want them back. God knows what was done to them. Ishtar then stared at the screen, a little confused and worried because Komui just screamed over the network and was overly excited about something. She didn’t want to involve herself, in but she was worried. She also got Kanda's side of the story for that problem.

[ Novemeber 2011 ]

There was another experiment and Ishtar was under its effects. She ended up feeling empty and cold towards everything, like nothing mattered anymore to her. Yujinn had to talk to her to get her out of that trance, but shew was still not feeling anything, and then she started feeling even worse when her clone was making use of her stuff and trying to throw them away. Ishtar has yet to retrieve all her belongings, of course.

[ December 2011 ]

Everyone was growing wings, but they weren't normal wings. They grew from inside the flesh and spread out after they tore off all the flesh in their backs off. Ishtar had to have someone cut hers open because she couldn't stand the terrible pain that was driving her into insanity, and she clearly thanked the man for helping her out with that problem. She wouldn't have been able to get rid of the pain without the extra help she was getting from that man and Yujinn as well. Yukina helped heal her wound afterwards, in which Ishtar thanked the small ice maiden for.

[ January 2012 ]

The experiment started again. People were coming in. All the people that she held dear, and all the people she cared about. A lot of them started coming back and they were starting to make her feel happy and sad at the same time. She got to see Kurama again and cried all over him. The best and the worst was that she got to see the twins, Zero and Ichiru. They were the closest things she had to family then and seeing them again sparked so much emotion from her. She clung to them relentlessly and cried her poor eyes out. She knew it wasn't their fault, but seeing them made her remember how helpless she felt when they were gone.

How she was unable to help them and how she was unable to do much for them.

For the rest of the week while she looked out for Yujinn, she lived with them, and Ichiru taught her how to play the violin, while and Zero got all worried about her. She was happiest when she saw her family like figures again, as well as her good friends. Kurama had been pleasant enough to let her cry on his shoulder and comfort her. After that she ended up on the roof of the biggest building, thinking about things. She was greeted by Sebastian, who was enjoying the large amounts of emotions that was swirling around her. He ended up offering to train her and help her become stronger.

The hardest thing she faced during these weeks was trying to help Gaara, her best friend and her little brother like figure. He was confused, hurt and in pain. She couldn't tell if he wanted her help or not but he kept pushing her away until he finally gave in. Ishtar was happy to try to help him in any way she could. She didn't want him to feel that he was alone and they had a long serious conversation. After that, she tried to set up a small birthday party for the sand ninja and succeeded. It didn't go as well as she wanted, but it was better than nothing.

Ishtar agreed to it and was willing to do anything that would help her protect the ones she loved. Even though Sebastian had killed her once and was not considered the best choice for assistance, she decided to try to trust him once more and see what he was offering to her. She then thanked all the people that helped her out during that week, and asked if anyone would teach her how to sew.

[ February 2012 ]

Wish Week. Ishtar's room turned into her old closet and she got buried in her clothes. Eventually Maka had to get her out of the mess.

Then Canon Swap Week happened. Ishtar and Yujinn thought they were from the world of 'Loveless' and Ishtar sported cat ears and a tail, confusing the hell out of Zero, who came back not too long ago. Ishtar was trying to convince the hunter that this was how she always looked and that he was a little delusional, but of course that didn't work well. Zero was always logical, and didn't make any sense for him to lie. Yujinn tried to help their claim but that didn't go too well either. Eventually, they both learned that the experiment was messing with their brains.

[ March 2012 ]

The Grab Bag Experiment. Ishtar was turned into a vampire again and this was not pleasant for her. She bit Yujinn harshly because he forced himself on her. Then she then had to spend most of her week with Kurama, because they both had similar symptoms, and they were easy to deal with when you had one other person with the same problem as you to deal with. Ishtar was pretty upset about that week. On top of that, Her hunter brother figure got turned into a child and Ishtar couldn't believe that Zero could look so cute and adorable. She kept wanting to hug him, but obviously with her condition, she couldn't do much. The month and week ended okay for her...sort of.

[ April 2012 ]

Ishtar met Varon and they started off pretty sour about each other until Ishtar apologized. When she did, then she and Varon and her got along well. He even scared her with his little prank and she laughed at him for choking on dust while he was laughing. The week was another experiment called "Master and Servant/Slave" so whoever the masters were, they forced the servants to obey their orders, and if they didn’t,don't they got shocked and hurt, etc. That was how Ishtar ended up in the engineering area.

Ishtar then met with Sebastian for training and he turned her into a working horse. There was no whip needed but Ishtar was taken down pretty roughly. He wasn't kidding when he said he wasn't going to go easy on her and she believed him. After a while, he called it off because she looked rather tired and exhausted, covered in little hits here and there that might bruise. Komui succeeded in getting Ishtar to agree to learn more things about the engineering and mechanics. Ishtar wanted to help others out, so it was a perfect idea.

This next experiment was a Time Experiment, where the subjects had to earn time by doing tasks. When they completed these tasks, they got their time extended. If they dido not, then they end up dead after their time expired. Ishtar had to do one for herself and eventually ingested a lot of poisons that caused her to throw up and wheeze. Yujinn, Varon, Yukina, Allen, Maka, and Komui, offered her some help. Eventually, she ended up back home under Yujinn's care and watch. She decided to behave so she could get better faster. She hated poisons even if she was immune to a lot of them. It was amazing how she didn't get killed by them yet.

A repeated experiment. Ishtar got turned into a five year old and she caused trouble for all her friends that weren’t regressed in age. Varon ended up playing hide and seek with her and she eventually met a smaller version of Zero and Yujinn, in which she ended up being friends with them one way or another, not feeling so alone anymore.

[ May 2012 ]

Skrulls Week. The skrulls were on the loose, taking forms of people and objects. The Facility subjects have to stop them before it was too late. Ishtar finally made a decision that she would take action if the skrulls dared to take any harm upon her friends and family but of course with a lot hesitation. She talked with Varon and various of people about it. She sought out Yujinn, Maka, and Zero, to make sure that they were the real thing, and that she wanted to perform that special tracking spell that Yujinn went over with her on them. Eventually after that was done, she was exhausted and dragged off to bed by Zero. Ishtar and Zero have a serious conversation and Maka came in later after Zero left to help her out.

Ishtar then decided to stay in the living room while the girls have a talk. A few days later, she got gets into a fight with Zero's Skrull and it did some mental damages to her. and Aas always, Zero came to her rescue and got rid of the skrull, as well as reassuring her that whatever it was saying was bullshit, and that Ishtar shouldn't be worried about it. He told her it wasn't her fault. Ishtar then got kidnapped after that, along with Lavi, and Yujinn and Zero were upset. Maka saved her and Yujinn healed her. Zero was pissed off at her and didn't speak to her afterwards.

She knew she was going to get lectured for it, and had been avoiding the subject since then. She had spoken to a man who went by 'Nameless Knight,' and offered to spar with people. Ishtar wanted some more practice so, so she asked them if it was possible for them to spar. He agreed to it and Ishtar went off to find this person.
