After the battle with Ophiuchus the zodiacs were banished from the sky and ended up landing on earth. Fortunately they landed within close proximity of each other on the island of Antilla, however their sudden arrival had not gone unnoticed and within minutes the unofficial "queen", Ratita Presumida, had dispatched her goons to pick up the still unconscious gods and drop them off with her. Now as the zodiacs wake they find themselves in a spacious room decorated with priceless, and probably stolen, works of art and elegant furniture. Running through the center of the room is an intricate red and gold carpet that leads right up to a throne upon which a small mouse woman, adorned with all sorts of jewelry and fine clothing, sits looking down her nose. "Oh, about time you're awake." She says, her refined little voice cutting through the open hall, "Care to explain why you're here?"

He'd landed well within the borders of Cua, briefly gaining consciousness enough to glimpse the crumbling remains of a building set to be demolished before darkness toke hold once again. Even as his eyes were closed he could feel searing pain that came with his mortal form fade away to a dull ache as he began to gain more awareness of his surroundings and it wasn't long before he felt a chillingly cold nose prod at his face. He had made to turn away from the unwanted attention when a pair of large, padded hands encircled his waist and lifted him like a paperweight. The coca slung Ceres and he blacked out entirely to the deep rumbles of the coca's praise for their search "hound" and the sickening motion of their uneven gate.

The third, and final, time he awoke Ceres was nearly blinded by the interior of Ratita's mansion, made up of ivory, champagne, and gold marble that seemed to reflect the back light a thousand times brighter. However his eyes quickly adjusted and soon he was able to shift onto his shoulders and peer ahead, following the bright strip of carpet to the seating place of a tiny anthromorphic mouse. He was vaguely aware she was speaking, but his eyes soon drifted to the threatening forms her coca body guards, standing at either side of her throne. Fortunately he caught her last sentence and after moving into an upright position responded rather weakly, "Erm, where is here?" This drew a look of suspicion from Ratita and her rosy gaze shifted to the other prone zodiacs, forcing Ceres to acknowledge their presence. Aside from the obvious, such as; Aries and Pisces, he had hardly a clue as to who was who. "And what about the rest of you? Or are you as clueless as feathers here?" Her comment drew a sharp scowl from Ceres, but he was genuinely interested in whether the others had a better recollection of the events and found his gaze once again on the others.

The Cancer's eyelids started opening slowly, until her eyes shut open. An unbearable pain struck her head as the violent light met her pupils. She slowly dragged her arms around her body while trying to adjust her green eyes to the sunlight. Moon's tiny pincers started clapping in some way as they grew a little bit bigger. Her adorned eyelids were once again closed, the dark colors covering them. The Cancer was for sure awake, but just too dizzy to try and realise what happened in the near past. Her beautiful long dress was now dirty and cut here and there, probably due to the long fall from the sky. Moon couldn't reckon how was the fall from the sky. All she could remember was the reason why. As soon as the thought of Ophiuchus popped up in her mind, the Cancer straightened her posture and sat on the floor.

Moon remembered almost all details from the fight but she didn't understand why she wasn't suffering that much. She slowly grabbed her hair with one of her arms and started caressing it while sighing and staring blankly at a tiny figure who sat on a throne. The Cancer shook her head and widened her eyes as her sight finally helped her. Before her were laying all the other zodiacs she's fought alongside with. Her gaze quickly started searching her best friends, the Pisces and Scorpio. Moon's eyes fixated on the pale girl, still lying on the floor, unconscious. Feeling a bit relieved, she sighed. She continued searching through the zodiacs, soon finding the Scorpio, still unconscious as well. Sighing, the Cancer started looking around at the room she was in. A lot of shiny and intriguing things were stuck on the wall and placed around the furnished room. She shook her head before starting to rub her hair again, trying to calm herself down.

As soon as she heard a voice, Moon slowly noticed the mouse sitting on the throne talking. The Cancer started focusing on her sentence, but unfortunately couldn't. She started staring at a painting blankly. Moon heard a familiar voice speak, that of the Virgo. She finally managed to focus and actually understand what he said, only to realise he didn't say anything important. Fortunately, the stranger's voice from earlier was heard yet again in the room. The Cancer had to admit she wasn't focused at all, but still understood what the mouse said. She slowly nodded as a response to the question and looked at the ground, hoping no one noticed her. Moon really didn't felt like explaining anything right now, most likely because she wouldn't manage to actually finish a sentence.

Leo didn't open her eyes, but the first thing she felt was a white hot pain that coursed through her body, receding into a dull ache that hurt all over. She lay motionless, letting the pain fade slightly, and as her senses returned to her she began to become aware of other things; the soft fabric beneath her and the faint murmur of conversation from across the room. Finally, she opened her eyes, paying attention to detail and taking in every part of the room- including her fellow zodiacs, and the strange rodent lady on the throne. She tried to sit up, but pain shot through her waist again and she instinctively made a snarling expression, showing her sharp teeth. Not wanting her hurt herself more, she propped herself up on one arm, the other clutching her tail apprehensively.

Although Leo tried to pay attention to what was being said, but as she began to make sense of the situation the first thing she remembered was Him. Ophiuchus. Immediately, a deep feeling of rage flowed through her, and the zodiac let go of her now lashing tail to dig her sharp nails into the carpet. If she ever got her hands on that bastard...

Gem groaned in pain as he began to regain consciousness, sitting up and trying to look around at whoever else was in the room, as he heard voices, but his eyes refused to focus. "C'mon eyes, I could really use your help right now," he muttered to himself, repeatedly rubbing his eyes until they finally decided to allow him to see properly. He looked around, seeing all of the other zodiacs, some conscious and some still unconscious, and a strange figure sitting on a throne that he couldn't recall ever meeting. "I'm going to take it that it's bad that we're here and the fight didn't go well?" He asked, to no one in particular. He couldn't remember what happened in the fight with Ophiuchus, he could only remember bits and pieces, but considering that they were all here, all quite injured and two thirds unconscious, he assumed it didn't go too well in their favor.

Her eyes felt heavy as they opened. She felt a slight ache in her joints as she tried to lift herself up into a sitting position. Her whole body felt strained which made her wince at the short jolts of pain that tell her that she was soar. Her mind was trying to regain and collect thoughts as she heard murmurs in the background. Her vision was still hazy but managed to find the silhouettes of others. As her eyes tried to focus she tried reaching out for someone nearby, scooting herself over to what she thought was someone. With a weak grip, she had managed to find someone. She hoped it was one of her fellow zodiacs and not just a random person. Her vision had began to focus and now allowed her to view who she had reached for. Moon, so it had been one of the zodiacs and it was one she was relatively close to. "Moon? W-where are we?" she asked with a weak yet soft voice. Her voice had been a bit shaky due to the fact she wasn't fully conscious, but steadily she was regaining it. Her attention was suddenly drawn to the other bodies that layed on the ground. Most are still asleep. What happened? It suddenly strucked her, the reason. Most likely the reason why her and her other kind had fallen. Ophiuchus. The name had given her a somewhat uncomfortable feeling. Her eyes averted from the sleeping bodies and onto Virgo. She had heard him speak, but wondered who Virgo was speaking to. Then her head turned, her eyes were drawn to a thrown that was right in the center of attention. What had astonished her a bit was there had been a tiny mouse sitting upon it. Was Virgo speaking with the mouse? she was confused. She felt like she was dreaming and this was all one of her many daydreams she tends to have on a daily bases. She just hoped that everything will be ok for all the zodiacs.

Ooc: Sorry I didnt respond sooner, I had been very busy and haven't been feeling well lately so I haven't been going Lioden on my usual time.

♒ AQUILA ♒

It was a solid moment before Aquila realized that the blinding light she was seeing was coming from behind her eyelids, and the searing heat from deep in her core was actually painful. She flinched and rolled onto her side instinctively, her arms moving over her belly. Claws slid over her arm and she blinked rapidly, quickly seeing that her long, slender hands were tipped with dangerous claws. Too busy doing an inventory on herself, the dark-haired female hardly noticed the others in the room. As she sat up, she felt something twitch atop her head and touched there only to find that she had tall, pointed ears alike to that of a wolf's.

"Oh, my... someone really screwed something up." Shifting her weight, something popped up from behind and under her. I have a tail. That was certainly new. Her legs were also very different, but when Aquila finally took a minute to peer around the room, she found that many of the creatures around her hardly looked the same as the beings she knew inhabited them. Scorpius, with a long, well, scorpions tail, was easy to recognize, as was Virgo with his narrow frame and giant wings. The others became blurred as Aquila's ears turned towards the only noise in the room.

A small, anthropomorphic mouse sat upon a throne adorned in thick, colorful dress robes. The gold and red in the room drew Aquila's eyes until a sharp question had her pointed ears snapping forward. The Queen, as it appeared, was demanding why they were here and if they were all "as clueless" as Virgo was apparently acting to her. Her bright, emerald eyes narrowed onto the rat ruler and she clenched her teeth as she rose higher, her chin tilting up.

"If you're asking me, no, I don't know where I am. But perhaps, since we haven't shown you any ill will, you'd like to enlighten us. Once all of us are awake, that is," Aquila said, her tone dark and grumbling as she looked over the remaining lifeless forms. She could tell they were alive and breathing, but her curiosity of them and this place had an anxious bubble forming in her stomach that demanded their lifeless bodies be restored to a proper functioning state. "I for one would love to know just how I came to be here." Ophiuchus, victoriously smirking,- flash- flying, falling, crashing into a thick and wet forest,- flash- and a glimpse of strong, furred arms carrying her from her landing site.

Aquila knew her version, but she wanted to know just why this tiny mouse had gathered them all here. Especially when all they had apparently really done- as far as she knew- was falling from the sky. Emerald eyes glanced curiously at her "companions" and then fell to their captor, sharp and seemingly indifferent.

♉ EINATH ♉

If there was one thing Einath knew it was that he was sore. And not the body-ache kind of sore, the sore where you felt it down deep in your muscles and felt the energy it took to move every limb. His head felt heavy as he attempted to sit up, his thick arms pushing at the ground as he tried to remain upright. Blinking his eyes open rapidly, the bright gold and red adorning the room blinded him momentarily and he turned his head down against the light.

"Care to explain why you're here?" Einath turned his head and encountered a very tiny specimen perched atop a throne and peering at them down her nose. It was also then that he realized his companions were all surrounding him and in various stages of awakening as well. Large brown bull's eyes gazed evenly at the mouse for a moment, quietly taking in all that was being said- by both Virgo and Aquarius, and even the gentle murmuring questions of those not yet willing to respond to whom Einath was deeming the Queen.

Sitting back and resting his steady-fingered hands against the floor, Einath glanced between Virgo and Aquarius and then lazily glanced back towards the throne. "Well, I thought I'd have a valuable piece of input at this point but..." he took a dramatic pause, face still seemingly bored, "I think Virgo's question and Aquarius' input suit the situation pretty nicely and sum it up alright, yes? I, too, would love to know where this shining place is located and just why we were brought here, exactly."

Einath's voice wasn't as disrespectful as Aquarius', but he also wasn't entirely trying to be respectful either. His voice conveyed a dry, indifferent tone that also demanded he not be lied to. His thick, muscled form straightened as he sat up taller, eyeing the guards on either side of the dainty mouse. There were twelve Zodiac here, and as far as he could see, though most of them were smaller in stature, they easily outnumbered the Queen and her guards. His mind was already working over all of the possibilities, but he refused to voice anything else, instead falling silent and doing a small inventory of all the zodiac-turned-mortal-beings in the room.

Most were recognizable, but he fell short on names and faces after only a few moments, and he quickly turned his attention back towards the mouse and her throne. Einath's brown gaze remained indifferent and he laid back, arms crossed across a thick chest.

The Cancer's eyes widened slightly as she felt a presence leaning on her. Her gaze drifted to her side, noticing her friend, Pi, clinging on her. Moon smiled at the sight of the fragile girl, glad the Pisces was now fine. She sighed and searched through the fallen bodies for Scorpius. The Cancer dragged her extremely long hair around her body, starting to rub it again. Her voice cold, she blinked and began to speak "I want to know where we are as well. This should be your time to answer, mouse lady. I like this room, but... Why are you sitting on a throne? And you really don't remember what happened a few days, or hours ago? After all, it's part of our history now, isn't it?" She paused a bit, crossing her legs in a more comfortable position. "Is this, by any chance... Earth?" Moon looked at her arms, surprised by the fact they now have more skin than scales. The Cancer rubbed her tiny scales from her arm. She placed her arms on her sides and felt something sharp coming out of them. After touching them, she realised there were some pincers instead of some shiny long scales. Looking around, she noticed all zodiacs have changed slightly from how they used to be.

♈ ARIES ♈

Mentions: {Indirectly} Ratita, Everyone

The last thing Aries could remember before the fall was the final battle with Ophiuchus. He hadn't been beaten without a fight, channeling the energy of Mars and sending forth bursts of red hot flame with the intent of burning the betrayer down to nothing. His brazen attempt was unsuccessful and Aries was cast down to the mortal realm along with the others.

The pain of landing was so intense his vision blackened, crashing down to the Earth below in the form of a shooting star and only changing once his consciousness was lost. The first thing he felt upon waking, beyond agony, was shame. This failure would continue to resonate with him for as long as his banishment lasted.

He forced himself into a sitting position and in that moment noticed he was not the same as before. The presence of people around him did not go unnoticed, but he didn't pay them much mind as his eyes adjusted to the blinding light and he examined his new appearance. Human like almost, save for the horns sprouting from his skull. They felt heavy, but it did not take long to become accustomed to their added weight as he rose to his feet.

As he returned to a full sense of consciousness, he realized the people surrounding him were actually his fellow Zodiacs, and they had been gathered into a room by a tiny woman (he assumed) with the features of a rodent. Her questions had his gaze sharpening, but all things considered, he supposed any monarch might wonder why twelve members of an unknown species had landed on her planet. Still, he wasn’t a fan of the hostility in her voice and offered her no answers as Aquarius, Taurus and some of the others responded with similar distaste.

Scorpio was, perhaps, one of the last to regain consciousness, missing Ratita’s initial interrogation and catching the tail end of Einath’s last sentence. Dark eyes scanned the room. Intricate and alluring as it was, he found himself unable to admire the fine estate for long with a mind shrouded in confusion like a thick mist and pain shooting through his body as intensely as it was. His gaze drifted down to his hands and that did little to ease his current disarray, segmented tail sliding across the floor as he shakily regained his footing.

He felt Capricorn’s enchantment envelope him, and it was perhaps a minor comfort to experience at least something mildly familiar. Glancing around the other Zodiacs, he found them all in a similar state, confined to mortal forms that felt and looked rather unnatural. The hostility he could sense radiating from the others didn’t catch, and he remained calm and almost unconcerned with the mouse queen as he instead sought out Cancer and Pisces, his fellow water signs. It wasn’t long before he found them, and made his way over to the two women once he was certain he wouldn't just end up flat on his face again. “Quite the mess we’re in this time I see?” He commented in a hushed voice, finally taking note of Ratita and her goons.

((Sorry for the wait. I don’t especially like either of these intros, but figure I’ve procrastinated for long enough.))

She sighed when she began to hear those around her question with such tones. She was concerned that her fellow zodiacs would begin to feud with the mouse lady. She hated when people began to fight since it can lead to many problems in the long run. She sat next to Cancer quietly as she tried to make herself small and hidden, knowing it wouldn't do much but at the time she just felt like it would help clear her mind. I hope we can go back home.. She dearly missed her home planet. She enjoyed the moments of peace and quiet, but also enjoyed the company of her fellow zodiacs which she doesn't see often because they all live on different planets. Maybe..this isn't all bad. Maybe..we will all be able to come together more than we did when we lived on our home planets. she thought, trying to make the situation better in her eyes. Her clouded thoughts had been haulted when she heard a familiar voice. It's origin was behind her, so she turned her head in order to meet who was adressing her.

What she was looking at was feet, and had seen a long tail trailing behind the body who stood in front of her. When she looked up with her seafoam eyes, she was greeted with someone she knew quite well. Scorpio, it was one of her closer zodiacs, along with Cancer who had been right beside her. She gave a friendly smile at Scorpio's statement."Yes, very much so. I hope things will be cleared up, like our whereabouts and why we are here." she said in her normal quiet voice. She remembered a few moments before that she had looked at Scorpio's tail before looking at him directly. She decided she would stand up so she wouldn't have to look directly up, not like it would make much a difference. She was the smallest out of all the zodiacs, and by quite a bit. When she tried to stand she had been a bit wobbly, her balance wasn't very well in the current state she was in. She was weak, and her small frame wasn't helping. Alas, she still managed to stand up. She looked back up at Scorpio, still holding her warm smile. "I hope you don't mind if I ask this but..Have you always had a tail? Or have I never noticed it?" she said slightly pointing downward at the segmented tail.

She didn't want to be seen as rude, but had been curious. She look down at herself, trying to find anything unusual with herself that may have appeared on her. She certainly was different herself, and had been in a body she never remembered herself being in. Am I in a mortal-like body? "How odd.." she murmured as she looked down at her hands before looking back up at Scorpius once more. "It seems like some of us have..changed." she remarked, her ill green eyes showing a bit of concern. The reason why was because this was odd and confusing. Pie didn't like this one bit, and had hoped her appearance was ideal and not something that would make her seem threatening. If it had been it would ruin her, she loved helping others and was very nurturing, and if her appearance was grotesque she wouldn't be able to do anything since nobody would want to be around her. Scorpio's appearence had seem fine and was nice, as well as Cancers. To her looks didn't matter though, but she knew most don't think like her and could have different thoughts on how someone looks.

The Cancer heard a familiar voice coming from her side. She quickly gazed at her side, feeling relieved her water friend has approached the two girls. Moon stared blankly at him while he scooted closer to them, her gaze almost going though him and onto the wall. She felt Pi moving besides her, suddenly feeling the urge to hug her for comfort. The Cancer watched the Pisces stand, slightly shivering. She noticed Pi staring both at her and the Scorpio, which made her observe the way all zodiacs have changed. Moon has no idea how she looks now, but looking at her friends, she had to admit that they weren't looking bad at all, maybe even better than before. The Cancer liked the way Pi looked now, she thought this new look fits her better. As for the Scorpio, he was... fine. After all, Moon didn't like the way he looked before that much, maybe with a haircut he'd be much more better. She found herself staring at him, trying to imagine the way he could be with shorter hair. The Cancer shook her head silently and listened to the two water zodiacs talking, without interfering. Moon nodded quietly at the end of Pisces' last sentence, quietly looking around the room. After a few seconds, she finally spoke "We for sure did." She sighed and stretched her neck.

As Pisces struggled to her feet Scorpius inched closer to the smaller Zodiac, hands extended to catch her or offer support should it be needed. When she managed to stand on her own he took a step back a bit to keep from overcrowding her. The mention of his tail had him glancing down at the extra appendage, raising it slightly so it no longer dragged across the floor, the barbed end tilting forward. “Sure, in fact I’m usually much more...scorpion-esque than this. How strange.”

Scorpio had spent much of his time on his home planet in a form most unhuman-like, burrowing beneath Pluto’s frozen surface and swimming through icy waters. Of course, he did have a habit of visiting mortal realms fairly often, intrigued by other lifeforms, but he couldn’t re-call ever appearing this human. Pieces’ opinion of her transformed body seemed to mirror his own, though rather than simple confusion and perhaps a pinch of inquisitiveness, he could detect fear on her face and within her tone. He couldn't say he blamed her. So much had changed.

“Don’t worry, we’ll be fine,” he encouraged gently, resting a hand on her shoulder. “We’re all here together and we’ll figure this out.” He could sense she was distressed by all the aggression radiating from both the others and their captors and he couldn't say he cared for it either. Dark eyes finally returning to the mouse queen, he made the decision to potentially risk angering the other Zodiacs if it meant keeping them all from being locked up, or at the least, comforting Pisces and Cancer.

"Please excuse my friends your majesty," he spoke up in a courteous tone, stepping away from the girls so he could see Ratita more clearly and she him. He did his best to appear unassuming and harmless, though it was a bit hard considering how small she was. "We've been through, quite a rough night to say the least...." He wondered how much should be said, if the queen knew what they were, and if it was worth lying to her. In the end, he decided being vague wouldn't hurt until he had a better chance to gauge her reaction.

"We come from...elsewhere, a place far from your land. A great battle was had with an enemy to our kingdom and unfortunately we're the losers. I'm not sure how we got here, and I swear by my tail that's the truth, but you can be certain it must have something to do with our foe," he explained, hoping to appease Ratita and get some information out of her as well. "I wouldn't worry about them, I doubt they are a threat to you," he added quickly. "This was very much an act of...revenge, I suppose you could call it, and I doubt they have any quarrel with you."

Sorry for the shortness, I had to get something up quick.

She slowly opened her eyes and it seemed like her head would explode when the light hit her pupils. Sitting up, she leaned back on her arms for a moment to get her bearings. She was one of the last zodiac to wake up. They all seemed confused and most noticeable was the fact that many of them had grown horns or tails. She hadn’t grown any appendages, but she was in a physical body. This was so odd and she was unused to having legs. That meant as she stood up, she swayed on her feet.

“Um, may I ask who you are?” She spoke nervously, unsure if the question had already been asked. She made her way over to Capricorn and stood behind him. She liked the gruff zodiac and even if he didn’t admit it, she knew he cared for all of them.

Her silver eyes scanned the opulent decor, it was a bit much for her. She pulled her cloak tightly around her small frame. She had spent little time on earth and this was so odd. Gliese had caught a glimpse of Antilla when she had landed and it seemed to be floating. The concept of floating islands was simply unreal to her.

Sage stood up slowly and brushed dirt of her dress. Though she had no idea what was going on, she didn’t want to show it. She liked to look put together and this whole mess was not helping. She watched the zodiacs move close to who ever they liked the best. Sage stood alone, not really having made many close friends with the others.

“We mean no harm, this is all an unfortunate accident.” Her voice rose above the whisperings of her fellow zodiacs. Though she was angered by the failure to defeat Ophiuchus, she tried not to show it. Yet anyone could easily see the tension in her body, her eyes kept flickering back to the guards. She was not enjoying the look of them or the dog like creatures they kept next to them

⛎ A N T I L L A ⛎

Cocking a brow at Gem's comment and the hushing motion of Ceres, her attention was soon drawn to a girl whose fur lined ears were tipped back as she spoke, "If you're asking me, no, I don't know where I am. but perhaps, since we haven't shown you any ill will, you'd like to enlighten us. Once all of us are awake, that is." Between the tone and non too polite response, Ratita's radar dish ears tipped back and she could see, with a small bit of satisfaction, that her guards had further stiffened at her side. On a regular day she might have had someone thrown out for even speaking in that tone, however she was in a particularly good mood and genuinely intrigued by these new comers. It wasn't everyday that people fell from the sky. Einath's follow up did nothing to prolong her patience, but it was admittedly curious that none of them seem to know. Or at least, that's what they said.

Repositioning herself so that she was sitting taller, the group seemed more bold and invigorated than they had a moment ago and she couldn't help but feel the need to match their stance, "Well, since it appears none of you are willing to share, I suppose I could enlighten you." She might've started when a glittering girl spoke up, "I want to know where we are as well. This should be your time to answer, mouse lady. I like this room, but... Why are you sitting on a throne..." Looking a bit taken aback, especially at having been called "mouse lady", she scoffed and spoke in a far colder tone of voice, claws curling over the ebony edge of her throne, "I brought you here and I could get rid of you just as easily." She paused seeming to collect herself some, but the agitation was still present in her scowl, "Although, I think I'll humor you. I'm Ratita Presumida and I'm on a throne because I own the entirety of Antilla. I had my guards gather all of you here for questioning, as it's rather unusual for people to fall from the sky. Especially here. Now would you care to explain your business?"
