Vivian | Zen Clinic Basement - Vivian's Living Room | Afternoon Vivian glanced at her brothers as she became aware of the young man’s fear towards them. Vivian, “I think that he is still uncomfortable with the both of you†Marcus nod in agreement and he turned his physical stature around, “I’m going to clean up and help mother and father in the clinicâ€. At this point, he was marching up to the door, twisted it’s bronze knob, opening the pallid wooden door and left. “Don’t worry little one, we won’t hurt you. But you do need some rest. You have that wound, after allâ€, stated as Niam looked at the young man. Vivian turned her attention to her brother. She slowly lifted her stature from the cold grey floor and approached him. She enveloped her fair arms around his broad neck. He pulled her closer, wrapping his arms around her waist. Here, the siblings performed a traditional exchange with one another: Telepathy. “I missed you brother, won’t you stay?â€, she asked, “I missed you too. I’ll be here to stay for a while. I don’t feel like dealing with father and that dog (Kaine, the elder brother) right nowâ€, he responded Vivian and Niam let go of one another. He raised his hand and placed it on her shoulder, squeezing it gently. His red sense of vision eyed his younger sister from head to toe, and smirked. “Look at you, so grown up.. baby sis. We’ll catch up later, I suppose I can help Uncle and Aunty as well†he added Vivian’s expression of happiness was evident within her eyes, as she expressed her gratitude. She escorted her brother to the door. She opened the frame of entrance and watched him as disappears to the clinic. She closed the wooden door. She attempted to turn her stature around to tend to the young man but golden chandelier suddenly lost its flare. “Shoot, don’t tell me.. the light is gone†She leaned back on the door, or she hoped it to be, and tried to feel the light switch on the wall. She was able to feel the outline of box, leisurely tracing her fingers back to the toggle, moving them up and down. But nothing, no light. The young man began to feel her fear in her voice, despite her formal questioning, “…Hey, are you okay?..â€. She lowered herself down, squatting until she reached the floor. She brought her long legs to her chest, wrapping her arms around them. Her pulse began to increase. She attempted to calm down, but her fear kept rising. That’s when he realized, she was afraid of the dark. ![]() ![]() |

[Hira - Afternoon - Zen Clinic Basement, Kahedenan, Earthsea - Vivian's Living Room - Human Form] Hira had sat up a bit straighter after Marcus left and was able to relax even more after Niam left leaving only Vivian in the room with him. Currently she was the only one of the three he felt comfortable around, mostly due to the burst from the brothers. When the lights went out he first thought it was her doing, but her reaction to it made it clear it was something else. He was still able to see everything clearly despite the decreased light, though the colors had mostly drained from his sight. He was staring at her as she sat down on the floor and cradled herself. It was obvious she didn't like darkness and he stood up from the couch he had been sitting in and walked to her sitting down behind her and wrapping his arms around her, pulling her closer to himself. "There's nothing to be afraid of in here..." He whispered into her ear as he started slowly brushing his hand against her hair, which he was hoping would calm her down. After a short moment he had an idea. He reached out one of his hands in front of him and focused. He smiled as he felt familiar weight settling on his hand and dropped it to the floor with a thud. He repeated this twelve times and closed his hand around the thirteenth ball. "I won't go far." He stood up and arranged the twelve balls around Vivian and then sat down in front of her. He grabbed her hand and placed the ball on it then grabbed her other hand and brought it to the ball as well before closing his own hands around hers. He then channeled some of his magic into the balls causing all of them to start emit a soft light, bathing the room in a gentle blue glow. He let go of her hands and looked straight at her. "That one is a gift for you. You helped me, selflessly and without expecting anything in return, such a thing surely deserves a reward." He smiled gently at her and picked one of the balls on the floor in his own hand. "With this, you won't have to be in the dark anymore. They are called hoshi no tama or Starballs if you want. I feel I can trust you with one of them. There are few things one can do with them, even if you aren't a kitsune." He brought the ball he was holding to level with his eyes and let it's light dim. "For now let me teach you this, to get the ball to glow you simply need to focus on it and think of stars and if you want to dim it you focus on it and think of dawn. It's rather simple." The ball in his hand started glowing again and then he let go of it, but instead of falling it started to slowly orbit around him. He then sat there, silent, for a while thinking about his options. While he could simply leave and go back to his wandering ways, for some reason he found himself hesitant to do so. He looked at Vivian and kept thinking. He felt a sudden urge to protect her, as a friend or as a... He shook his head trying to keep himself in the now. After another moment he looked straight into her eyes. "Tell me... have you ever wanted to have a familiar?" |

Hawkeye Outskirts of Siphillys - Cabin Afternoon As Jack came closer to the cabin through the use of his accelerating spell circles, he easily distinguished which elements the summon used. Quickly, he pulled out a marker and drew a craft that enabled him to control the summoning circle and change one of its letters, thanks to Hannah's last attack. The barrier was weakened enough for Jack to control the witch's field of magic near the cabin. Immediately the summoning circle turned into a white barrier that repelled anyone who does not bear the light cosmos. Once Jack had entered the barrier, he performed a soul ritual by placing Deans'(husband) soul into his own body causing to Jack lose control of his body and mind. Dean managed to free Janes'(wife) soul from the devil that had encumbered her mind. As soon as the devil was separated from Jane's' body, Jack regained control of his body and severed the devil's head, purging the witch. Afterwards, the white barrier that Jack had made slowly dissolved. Jane is no longer a witch, nor does she have the memories of witch craft and the recent events that had taken place. She fell unconscious and fell to the ground. A helicopter arrived soon after to pick up Jane, Hannah, Jack, and the hostages. |

Vivian | Zen Clinic Basement - Vivian's Living Room | Afternoon She attempted not to draw tears as the darkness surrounded her. Suddenly, she sensed arms being enveloped around her waist, drawing her fragile stature to the body. At first she began to panic within, but she realized that it was the young man tried to comfort her. He ran his fingers through her luscious silver locks. Eventually, she began to feel relaxed. Yet, she was bothered by the feeling at same time. Vivian witnessed a ball on the ground, curious and wondered what it did. Then, more and more Starballs began to form around them. She was both fascinated and shocked at same time, which lead her unable to express words. Vivian witnessed a gentle azure flare around them. Her sanguine vision were fixed on them and Vivian attempted to raise her fragile fingertips to touch them. Vivian smiled as she waved her hands among the blue light. She let out a giggle, but she felt that it might have been the wrong timing so she covered her pale lips with her fingers from left sense of touch placed under the fingers from the right hand, embarrassed. She looked at him and smiled at him sweetly, “You didn’t have to do that, but thank you.†Vivian held the ball gently as she listened intently to the young man’s instructions as he guided her on using the Starballs. She started thinking of the her brothers and the ball shone bright. She began thinking of her mother and the ball grew dim. Lastly, she fixed her vision towards the young man in front of her and the ball started orbiting around them both. She expressed a gentle smile at him. Vivian pondered about the question, her eyes drew to the ground. Surprisingly, she threw her arms around him and began speaking gently and softly. “I thought about it, but I never knew how to .. have one..†For Emiya and Ugo [Show] For Avian and Inaby [Show] ![]() ![]() |

[ Lynea Distillia | Ruins of Xath - Carvahall ] Lynea looked at the man as he answered. Zion : "No, I did not do this...as for who had done it. It is a witch. I do not know if your family had survived or not. If they did, they are consider strong and lucky." Lynea : "Is that so..." Lynea looked at the necklace that she found at her house. Lynea : "Hmm... It's been like 5 years since the last time I've been here..." Lynea then looked at the man. Lynea : "You know... I'd rather not say the culprit is a witch... As---" Hamuul then cut her off telepathically. Hamuul : "Careful on what you're going to say... he might be a hunter." Lynea then observes the man carefully, he had a presence that is unknown to her... It's as if she couldn't identify what man he is. She then continues. Lynea : "I rather call the culprit as selfish person who values pride more than live... In any case... What are you? I suppose you're not a witch... Or a hunter... or even those elvenkins, that really makes me wonder on what you are." |

[James Riley] [Thra - Evermore City - Trafford Park] After looking at James' reaction, the lady took some moment before stopping her combat stance. She then looked at James, with a hint of embarrassment and returned his smile. Lucia: "I don't know why, but something tells me you're telling the truth. Since you were honest, here." James lets out a relieved sigh. James: "Finally..." He waited as the lady sheathed her dagger. Then she showed the knapsack that she has carried earlier. Lucia: "This bag contains the box that I was given in Mordor. The client told me to meet someone whom would pick up this package at this location on this date. In exchange for the second half of the payment of 19,000 Gold Pieces, I’ll give you this box. As requested, the box was never opened, and I assure you it’s in the same condition as it was given." After listening what the lady has said, James happily smiled, and started his approach to her. With the coin purse in hand, he walked steadily. James also noticed her intent stare at him and at the same time, observing the environment around her. Despite that he is going to complete the transaction, James as well felt something was amiss. His senses are tingling. James: "I think I should get this done as fast as possible..." While he was going for the package, his eyes caught a group of figures moving from the bushes, and James knew what is going to happen. At the same time, he quickly turned at the Reflector. James: "Oh sh--! Get out of here! It's a trap! Witch Hunters began to converge to their location from all corners, effectively blocking any attempt to escape. First thing that comes on his mind is to explain himself. James: "Miss, let me explain myself! I didn't set up this ambush okay? Or maybe you're the one who set me up..." Then, the leader of the Witch Hunter group, appears. He stood beside a lamppost. Its yellowish light illuminated his partially burn-scarred face and his light blue hair, plus a fake left eye. James knows who he is. ???: "Nobody sets up nobody. It just happened that I have a very good mole..." The leader said that with a wide grin on his face. James cursed him for what he did. James: "Linus! You ******!" The Witch Hunter laughed, before speaking to him. Linus: "Thanks to your effort, I have managed to kill 3 birds with one stone! Since I'm now on a very good mood today, why don't you two surrender peacefully?" He laughed again, albeit more maniacal than before, as James was trying to decide what to do next. Being surrounded does not leave him much of an option. And seeing the young lady behind her is a fighter, there is only one solution to his, and her predicament. James took a deep breath, and made his decision. He raised his hand up high again, just like before, as a sign for surrender. Linus gave the smug look at James. Linus: "You have made a wise decision Riley. Apprehend him and the girl!" One of the Witch Hunters proceed to arrest James and the other to the Reflector. Within his mind, James did this a couple of times. It is this trick that somewhat earns him the title the Survivor, which he does not officially take it as his own. As soon the Hunter grabbed his hand, James gave a swift attack to the witch hunter with a side kick. While he was staggered by the attack, James knocked him out with straight jab to the face. He turned to the lady behind him as everyone scrambled to their position, in exception of the leader. Linus was displeased at the current situation. James: "Alright Miss Reflector, we can get ourselves out of here, provided that we work together..." ![]() ![]() |

[Lucia Hallowground | Evermore city - Trafford Park - Thra Region] James: "Oh sh--! Get out of here! It's a trap! Noticing the sudden flood of movement in their area, Lucia’s suspicions where confirmed. Quickly, their paths of escape where blocked by the group of witch hunters. As Lucia prepared to fight them, the man spoke again. James: "Miss, let me explain myself! I didn't set up this ambush okay? Or maybe you're the one who set me up..." Lucia: “I’m not really quite organized enough to do things like this. I think we’re in the same boat here.†At that moment, the apparent leader of the group revealed himself by speaking. The cloaked man seemed to know the grisly looking mastermind of the ambush. ???: "Nobody sets up nobody. It just happened that I have a very good mole..." James: "Linus! You ******!" Lucia: (A mole…?) Lucia’s mind innocently pictured this Linus person taking orders from an oversized talking mole on his back with an Italian accent; she shuddered at the strange thought. Linus: "Thanks to your effort, I have managed to kill 3 birds with one stone! Since I'm now on a very good mood today, why don't you two surrender peacefully?" Lucia was prepared to charge at the group and hope for an escape; however the cloaked man abdicated, and seemed to be intent on surrender. Lucia did the same, holding up her arms - thinking that the cloaked man was fully intent on surrendering. However, the two had the same idea of what to do next. Linus: "You have made a wise decision Riley. Apprehend him and the girl!" As soon as one of the witch hunter’s took the Riley’s hand, he countered and took him out. At that same moment, Lucia was about to be apprehended by two witch hunters who were to escort her to wherever they would take her. Lucia reacted by sweeping her leg across the feet nearest one, tripping him hard into the ground, she knocked him out by swinging the knapsack with the box against the back of his head. After that, Lucia caught the arm of the second witch hunter who lunged at her, pushing on her back and using the hunter’s momentum to dislocate her arm with a painful sounding internal crack, Lucia then let her drop to the ground, paralyzed by pain. After subduing the first two, she heard Mr. Riley’s Voice directed at her. James: "Alright Miss Reflector, we can get ourselves out of here, provided that we work together..." Seeing the other witches coming forth to apprehend them, Lucia unsheathed her dagger, and continued to hold the knapsack with the box in the other. Lucia: “Mr. Riley, was it? First off, might I say my name is Lucia – pleasure to make your acquaintance. Secondly, while I do intend to escape alive there’s a small matter of ‘maintaining appearances.’ That will involve disposing of these vagrants…†Lucia glanced at the man, simultaneously noting a total of six witch hunters surrounding them, plus the Linus person. She gave Mr. Riley a assuring smile. Lucia: “Rest assured I intend on getting both of this out alive so I may have the liberty of completing our contract. May I assume you can handle yourself in this situation?†Without time to wait for an answer, Lucia was forced to confront three witch hunters whom where engaging her. The first one lunged at her, trying to grab her, though Lucia managed to dodge him, letting her fly past her. The second one was not as fortunate. Lucia spun around, dodging his attack and planting her dagger into the hunter’s back. She then finished by kicking him to the ground. Just after that, Lucia was caught off guard as the first hunter she dodged grabbed her from behind. Though her arms where restricted, Lucia’s feet where free to use her wood block slippers to strike against the front of the person’s leg, causing an uncomfortable sounding internal snap. The hunter fell to their knees, and Lucia wheeled around with her dagger, catching the unfortunate person’s neck as she spun. The third hunter had all but abandoned the assault and was backing up with his hands covering his mouth. As Lucia began to charge towards him, he turned around preparing to break for a full run, but when he turned he was again met by Lucia whom used the same flash step action that she was intending to use on Mr. Riley earlier. Lucia landed her dagger above the man’s knee, and before he could even look down as his wound, Lucia pulled the dagger out and made and upward cut, catching his chin as he attempted to look down at his injury. The third hunter fell dead on his back. After taking three of the hunters down, Lucia was forced to kneel down to rest, she glanced towards the apparent leader Linus. Too exhausted to charge at him, but not intending to let the leader escape, Lucia ripped the pendant of the hero from her neck and wrapped it around her dagger. She held it horizontally and looked at the man’s foot. Penndant: “GAHAHAHA! There’s so much red paint mother! It feels like the Cherries took over the world!!†Lucia: “Shut up and go!†Lucia let go of the dagger, but before it even fell a centimeter it had disappeared, straight into Linus’ right foot. The dagger could be seen seemingly bursting through the man’s footwear. In a time shorter than it would take for him to reach down and take the dagger, the dagger again teleported back - landing in Lucia’s hand. Lucia, needed a moment of respite before she could begin attacking again. She took a look towards Mr. Riley’s direction to see his current situation. |

[Joseph Starcaller & Wilhelmina Everbright][Evermore city] Wilhelmina: "Joseph~~~ are we there yet??" Even the legendary patience of Joseph Starcaller was wearing thin at his partners constant questions. Joseph: "NO! As I told you, we are passing through Evermore City first." The woman and her fox seemingly pouted together but both brightened up at the sight of the city walls. As they walked through the city, Joseph noticed with narrowed eyes people seemingly moving away from a single location. Wilhelmina: "Nee, Joseph. What are we doing here?" Joseph: "I have some business with one of the priests in the church at the opposite end of the city. He is more slippery then castor oil but he knows most of what's going around the continent." Joseph noticed that most of the people seem to be avoiding Trafford Park. Now, the church that he wanted to stop at was on the other side of the city and going through the park would be a shorter rout. 'Something is going on, normally I would avoid unnecessary trouble but going through the park is quicker. No choice I guess.' As they traveled through the park they heard screaming, cursing and shouting. Joesph in particular recognized the sound of a bladed weapon cutting human flesh. With a nod to each other, they shot off towards the sounds, Joseph drawing his gun and Wilhelmina resting her hand on her sword. The entered a clearing to see a brown haired woman stab a man in a witch hunter's standard esquire uniform. it was a gruesome scene where several esquire's laid dead at the feet of the woman and a man with snow white hair. The woman then turned towards the last man who was a rook (a low ranking one to be exact). She ripped a pendent from her neck, wrapped it around her dagger and held it vertically downwards. “Shut up and go!†The woman shouted and let the dagger go. Joseph's eyes then widened as the dagger appeared in the man's foot then back in her hands again. As the woman turned to look at her companion, Joseph quickly fired at her. He had an ice bullet in the gun ready. He aimed so that the bullet grazed her shoulder but the ice bullet's effect took hold. It numbed her shoulder down to the arm holding the strange dagger. To the woman it would be as if, her shoulder was in winter for a few hours. Wilhelmina moved at the same time he fired. She quickly moved in front of the injured witch hunter with her arm ready to draw her blade at a moments notice. Then then quickly shouted at them, Wilhelmina: "Hold it right there! You are under the arrest for attacking and murdering several witch hunters. Identify yourselves!" Joseph then stepped out of the shadows next to the injured rook scaring him. His gun pointed directly at his opponents as he spoke in a dead voice, Joseph: "Few normal people would have reason to attack one of us. It is quite obvious 'what' they are." The rook on the ground next to him looked at his face and stuttered in horror, "I-impossible! An Elite Knight here? Now?? A-and it-it-its the Inquisitor???" Joseph did not move an inch but spoke to the man: "Identify yourself soldier." "L-Linus. R-R-Rook Seventh Class Linus, s-sir!" Joseph: "Right then. Alright the both of you! You are under arrest for suspicion of witchcraft, assault and the murder of several witch hunters. If you surrender immediately I may be less inclined to use harsh methods in your questioning. Any attempts to flee will result in your immediate disarment and I mean that in a literal sense. Surrender now, it will be easier." ![]() |

[ Rand and Era [] 2 miles outside syphilis ] Avolin settled down in front of a small wagon strung to two horse. The girl Era slowly lowered herself off the gryphon still in shock she waddled for a moment before stopping and staring at the wagon. Rand jumped off and patted avolins beak whispering words of praise as his gryphon slowly layed itself on the ground. It sqawked in happiness as Rand patted its nose. Rand walked over to the girl and signalled for her to follow, she cautiously followed him to the edge of the wagon. "Varro, It's me Rand " Rand shouted aloud. Not too long after a dwarf swung open the flaps covering the wagon and smiled. "You are late rand, and by the dwarven gods you are never late. Hunter ?" He asked jumping down "Just a small delay, it's good to see you, this is the girl you wil;l be taking" Rand said pointing at Era "Wai...you are ..you said you will take me to safety..you Sai.." She was cut off by rand "the hunters know you are travveling with an elf, its not safe to travel with me anymore but i shal;l keep my promise. Varro will take you through dwarven tunnels..only dwarves can navigate them so nobody will be able to follow you. He will bring you to safety" Rand said "Ah wads and trash Rand you know how to navigate them , somehow....but aye he speaks truth only a few elves and dwarrves can navigate the tunnels. And even a hunter would think thrice before following a dwarf underground. be suicide it be. Hurry on now girl into the wagon" He smiled as he lifted the flap Era cautiously but reluctantly got in and sat down as Varro let the flap drop/ "The hunters seek this one be carefull varro. " Rand said calmly "Oh shut it rand you are the only one carefree enough to not cover your tracks im sure half of the countryside saw that bird of your" Avolin sqawked loudly and shunned varro "Any news on what i asked you to find ?" Rand asked "Aye but you wont like it. The blacksmith elf you seek has been spotted in syphilis. My eyes and ears tell me in a inn but i cannot tell you which. " Rand sighed " Then back to the capital i go" "be careful, if they saw you once you can bet they will try to find you again, unless you..." before he could finish a white light enveloped rand and when it dissapeared his appearance was that of a normal human. his eyes and hair remained the same but his elven ears and his facuial structure now resembled a human. "yes yes you elves and your magic jusb e carefull. I must be on the road. be carefull rand " They embraced forearms and parted. [ Rand [] Syphilis capital - Emerald city [] Market streets ] Rand had avolin fly him to a secluded field before entering the city where he dismissed his kudan. With his now human looking face he easily got past the guards without attracting any notice. The comoflauge spell was a handy one but rand could not use any magic without dispelling it first. He made his way through the market streets stopping by at local bars and inn's to search for in formation. He eventually stopped at a inn near the west market called the 'prancing iron' He never really knew why humans made such names for inns but this inn was small and quiet, usual places for people who watched everything. As he entered the innkeeper immediately walked to him. " Can i help you sir ?" He asked "I would like a room for the night, the largest you have. Also i would like to be informed of any elven kin spotted in the area. i am a lord of the west country and the council has ordered me liason to a elven blacksmith. if you hear of anyone like that please inform me" Rand sand in a nobel tone. "Yes, yes my lord. The largest room is upstairs and the second right. Will you require anything else." he asked "nothing more." Rand took the key and headed up to the room. The room was fairly large and decoareted with painting and silk, just as he though this inn though small housed very important guests who often looked to stay low. Rand eyed the bed and checked the walls for spyholes and weaknesses. He found the room satisfactory and realeased the spell he held. His body returned back to elven form. with a grunt he setttled onto his bed and leyed on his back. He pulled a broken crest from his armour and played with it against the cieling. Thoughts crossed his mind as he let himself rest for a while. |

[Hira - Afternoon - Zen Clinic Basement, Kahedenan, Earthsea - Vivian's Living Room - Human Form] Hira turned his head and saw the silhoutte of Vivian in the glow of the hoshi no tama. He leaned closer to her and gave her cheek a lick before pulling back blushing slightly. He then pulled away and smiled at her warmly. "Would you want one?" There was a small nod from Vivian and Hira's smile grew as he closed his eyes. He then opened them again, both of them glowing bright with magic. The hoshi no tama surrounding them rose up as well and joined the one already orbiting them both. There was a change in the light coming from the hoshi no tama as twelve of them burst to magical flames, the thirteenth ball was enveloped in a soft blue glow as it drifted in between Hira and Vivian, then there was another change as lightning struck from one of the balls to the other surrounding them in a ring of lightning. Hira stood up pulling Vivian up along with himself. He placed one of her hands on top of the hoshi no tama floating between them and placed his own left hand on top of hers. He then reached out with his right hand gently placing it below her jaw and tilting her head up so he could look her straight into her eyes. "So beautiful..." He moved a finger across her lips. "So soft..." He leaned towards her and gave her a kiss on the lips. He let himself linger in the sensation of the kiss before pulling back a bit. "So sweet..." There was change in the lights again as the hoshi no tama orbiting them were drawn back into his body, leaving only the one glowing blue behind. He had not moved his eyes off from hers. "I am Hira Ikou... and I'm yours." |

ooC: What a peculiar witch/familiar contract! Vivian | Zen Clinic Basement - Vivian's Living Room | Afternoon Vivian was taken aback by the situation. Her body was frozen, she couldn’t move and thoughts kept racing through her mind. She looked at him and smiled sweetly. “No, you’re Hira.†“Hm, I doubt you have gone around the town yet, have you? I’ll take you on a tour." Her silver locks blocks her sanguine eyes from the view but she spoke formal and sweetly. Hira nodded in agreement and stared at her. She pulled his shirt up to look at the wound, she pondered, “As a kitsune, your healing abilities are tremendously amazing..†The wound seemed to be healed, just a scab in form of line. “I’m going to conceal it so you can take a bath before we go. She chanted a sealing power to keep his wound secure. “..Ba..bath? Why?.. I’m clean!â€, he responded “Oh no you’re not, yet!â€, she argued back. She grabbed his left and pulled him along with him to the back. He followed her willingly and he leaned on the door archway. Vivian leaned on the tub to twist the faucet on, letting the warm water fill the tub. She turned her physical stature around, grabbed his hand gently to pull him closer. He resisted. “Come on! It’s not so bad!, there’s soap and shampoo in there!â€, she stated. He still seemed to be refusing. She grabbed his legs and tried to pull him back. But, he dug his nails in the archway, his body in a horizontal line. Vivian, yanking him to let go. “Let go of that!â€, a frustrated voice and look were evident on her. “No!†After half an hour of struggling, Vivian managed to get him to the bathtub. She left him to cleanse himself, provided him his own aloofa brush. She left the bathroom and came back in ten minutes. She dropped the clothes on a chair on the corner and left Hira for a bit. She laid down on the sanguine Victorian couch. She fell asleep waiting for him. Her body curled up and her arms both placed relaxed on of the other on her left side. Her silver lock covered her soft fragile façade. ![]() ![]() |

Hannah | Outskirts of Syphilis Capital | Cabin As the shattering glass echoed, Jack, quickly and smoothly drew a craft that enabled him to control the summoning circle, he managed to performed a soul ritual. Hannah payed close attention to such skills. After finally liberating the witch from deaths grasps, the white barrier that Jack had made slowly dissolved. Slowly Civilians began to walk out of the Cabin, which in they were captured. They all looked confused and scared. Hannah lowered her guard and her bow converted into her bracelet once again, relishing a small glow as it placed in her left small wrist. A helicopter descended slowly into the grounds, it had the emblem of the Council. As Jack escorted the hostages inside the helicopter, Hannah walked towards the Cabin, the wind produced by the helicopters spinning blades pushed Hannah's silky hair against the breeze. She lowered her body towards the ground and picked up a broken glass, with her right sense of touch, and with it she puncture her left index finger, dark red blood began to drain out, she stood up and walked towards the door of the cabin, with her blood she drew a seal. After she was done, she closed the door behind her and walked away towards the awaiting helicopter, Jack extended his arm to pull up Hannah, But before she gave him her hand, she turned to look at the Cabin once more, Her eyes lingered as her childhood reflected in images in her thoughts. Her lips exhale the words Incendio.. And the Seal she had drawn on the door glowed, and soon after the Cabin was set on fire. As Jack pulled Hannah's fragile body upwards inside the Helicopter, there eyes met, Her eyes divulged an illuminating hazel hue, around her pupil and the blue hue of her iris. She quickly lowered her eyes and sat down, as the helicopter flew back towards the city. ![]() |

I know you're following me ever since I left the inn (lying). There's no reason for hiding anymore. What do you want from me?" Zaka:(Whoops,speak of the devil....) Snake:Well,no point in hiding anymore...... The two came out and show themselves before the man.... Snake:Nyaa,you got us...... (laughs) ;P Zaka:Hey there,buddy.We don't mean to follow you this way,but you see...... Snake:We wanted to know something.....Are you the blacksmith whose equipment were cursed,and the one who sided with the witch? Zaka:(Gah,so direct!) Well,so he said.....But if it's indeed true,there must be a reason behind it,no?Oh,by the way,name's Zaka.I'm a Hunter,but off duty,I'm a blacksmith. Snake:And name's Snake.A Hunter too,just like him,but off duty,I'm a gunsmith.This case here was the first one ever;it's a "assault" machine gun. Zaka:In short,we're partners.

[Tirr Runendiel and Anima Grohm | Emerald City, Siphilys] There were two men who revealed themselves to him. One a human and the other an elf. They respectively gave their names to Tirr: Snake and Zaka. The human called Snake is a gunsmith and Zaka, a fellow blacksmith. The two men are very curious of Tirr. Anima: "Hey!! Don't trust them. They seem fishy." Tirr -telepathically-: "I agree. I'll have to prepare myself for the worst." Snake:We wanted to know something.....Are you the blacksmith whose equipment were cursed,and the one who sided with the witch? Zaka:...But if it's indeed true,there must be a reason behind it,no? Snake:By the way,you seem to be looking for something,correct?Maybe you could tell us more about it? *grins* And just on time,we're actually looking for a mission or two to do with,and we're looking for parts too. Tirr looks away from the two of them with his eyes looking at the upper left corner then lower right corner. Anime: "Lie to your teeth. This is a very dangerous situation we're in." Tirr -telepathically-: "Really? I should tell them our past no? It won't be bad if you don't reveal yourself to them I think. I'm not in the bad situation but you are." Anima: "THAT WON'T DO!! DON'T REVEAL THE TRUTH TO THEM. WE MAY BE IN BIG TROUBLE. PLEASE!" Tirr -telepathically-: "Ok, I have to tweak some of our history together then." The two men curiously stared at Tirr's long meditation. Tirr, who began thinking of a way to do this, gathered his confidence to speak to the two men at the same time. Tirr: "It seems one of you have hailed to the place I came from. Very well, I'll tell you. I was a disciple of the local smith hailed in Imil in the country of Avalon. At that time, I encountered a witch who happen to be traveling through the forest and I was caught in her grasp. She possessed my body and controlled me for a very long time. That's the point where I was cursed for my life. She used me to infiltrate the city and used my teacher's knowledge to create these cursed arms. It was devastating. The elves banished me." Tirr paused suddenly and tried to remember Snake's question. Tirr: "So no, I did not join with the witch. I actually went against her after my will was strong enough to break her possession of me. Luckily, a witch hunter killed her somewhere upon my release. He had a mission to kill her for money." "As for the current situation, I'm looking for the city hall so I can legally sell my wares. They're not from my craft so it's not cursed and I need the money so that's what I'm doing now." Anima (to Tirr): "Great! Just like that. I guess partial lies is better than expected." Tirr's grimoire glowed ominously as Anima expressed relief and joy. The glow attracted unwanted attention from the two men and Tirr is in a bind on how he can lie anymore.

[Hira - Afternoon - Zen Clinic Basement, Kahedenan, Earthsea - Vivian's Living Room - Human Form] Hira came out of the bathroom, he had only pulled the pants on rest of the clothes in his arms. "Well... it wasn't that bad I suppose." He stopped when he noticied Vivian asleep on the couch, she looked so cute when she slept that he couldn't help but to smile. After placing the clothes on a table nearby he sneaked next to her sitting on the floor next to the couch. He brushed her hair off of her face and then leaned in giving her a kiss on the forehead. She stirred a bit, but didn't wake up and he didn't really feel like waking her up quite yet. So he started to get dressed. It took him some time as he wasn't that used to clothes. After he had gotten dressed he moved back to Vivian grabbing her by the shoulder and shaking her gently. "Time to wake up, sleeping beauty." He was leant over her observing her as she started to wake up. |

[James Riley] [Thra - Evermore City - Trafford Park] As the Witch Hunters made their way to their location, the lady introduced herself to James while rearming herself with her dagger. Lucia: "Mr. Riley, was it? First off, might I say my name is Lucia – pleasure to make your acquaintance. Secondly, while I do intend to escape alive there's a small matter of 'maintaining appearances.' That will involve disposing of these vagrants…" James once again smiled at her. James: "Hmm, what a nice name you have there. It fits with your lovely appearance. And, I'm Jim. I don't like it when people calling me with a suffix. As for them, don't worry about disposing bodies..." Then, Lucia looked at him, while noting six Witch Hunters surrounding them, including Linus. She gave James an assuring smile. He simply chuckled. Lucia: "Rest assured I intend on getting both of this out alive so I may have the liberty of completing our contract. May I assume you can handle yourself in this situation?" The lady was soon forced to engage three witch hunters, leaving her without a chance to wait for a reply from James. As for the cloaked man, he saw a Hunter with a longsword dashed towards him and swung his sword downwards, which James dodged in time. With that, his mind and body went into full gear for battle. James: "Let's do this..." The sword-wielding Witch Hunter continued to attack James. He did a horizontal sweep with his weapon, and James did a few back steps to avoid the attack. Annoyed, the Hunter charged at him with his sword. James narrowly dodged the attack, but this gives an opportunity for him to counterattack. James sent multiple strikes to the gut and ended it with an uppercut. The last strike knocked the Hunter down, and he reeled in pain from James' attacks. After that, Linus decided to fight James with his crude, but mean-looking two-handed greatsword. As James barely evades the attack, the greatsword cut a small part of his hair, and at the same time, he dropped his hood, revealing his appearance. After that, James dive rolled away from his opponent, while reaching for the longsword from the previous Witch Hunter that he defeated. With a sword in hand, James started trading blows with Linus. From James' view, it seems that he has improved his swordsmanship and strength. The leader noticed that James was struggling. Linus: "Hah! I have been training for countless days and nights just for you!" James said nothing but simply grinned at him. Angered by his expression, Linus began to strike harder, unknowingly fallen for his trap. Several blows later, James decided to end this, as cleanly as possible. After evading an attack by him, James moved up and with his sword, and clashed Linus' sword as hard as he can. The greatsword slipped from the Hunter's hand, and went up in the air, before falling back to the ground. James: "You have improved, but still miles away from me." James said with his sword on Linus' neck. The Hunter clenched his teeth, before withdrawing away from the battle in shame. Lastly, a female Witch Hunter joins into the fray, with a dagger, reverse-held. He facepalmed at her and dropped the sword that he used earlier on. She ignored his response, and like any Hunters, attacked him first. The female Hunter threw quick unarmed attacks. James was unable to cope with her speed, and received a couple of blows. The situation escalated when she started using her dagger, as part of her fast, flurry attacks. James blocked some unarmed blows, but not the dagger strikes. As a result, his cloak has several slash marks, and a light scrape on his left cheek. He knew he has to defeat her fast, or end up like a Swiss cheese. The young Witch Hunter continued to attack. But James noticed a flaw within the dagger girl. Her movements become slower, her strikes are less powerful. A sign of fatigue. At the time, he was also familiar with her fighting pattern, and it gave James a chance to win. James countered one of her fast kicks, but the Hunter managed to regain her stance. He countered again, and this time, a straight jab to the sternum. She was down to her knees, coughing and gasping for air. James: "That's about it I guess..." Then he heard a scream, and it is the shoddy leader, grabbing his foot covered in blood. James closed his eyes and shook his head, before looking back at Lucia, who was kneeling on the ground, trying to get a quick rest. He smiled at her. James: "Tired already?" James' smile waned when he saw the amount of blood that Lucia spilled. He was not happy. He intended to scold her, but then was interrupted by a gunshot. James looked at the direction of the gunshot, and his normal gaze turned serious. An elf approached the injured Linus and shields him, while with her arms ready to draw her weapon. Wilhelmina: "Hold it right there! You are under the arrest for attacking and murdering several witch hunters. Identify yourselves!" James stood silent while the female elf questioned him and Lucia with her annoying voice. At the same time, a man, with a black coat and a large gun in hand, appeared from the shadows. Joseph: "Few normal people would have reason to attack one of us. It is quite obvious 'what' they are." James narrowed his eyes as the Inquisitor aimed his gun at the witch duo. Right now, you can cut the atmosphere with a knife. After finding out Linus' identity, the Elite Witch Hunter gave a stern warning. Joseph: "Right then. Alright the both of you! You are under arrest for suspicion of witchcraft, assault and the murder of several witch hunters. If you surrender immediately I may be less inclined to use harsh methods in your questioning. Any attempts to flee will result in your immediate disarmament and I mean that in a literal sense. Surrender now, it will be easier." Unlike the wounded Hunter behind the pair, James did not flinch at his words. But he knew one thing. Get yourself caught by the Inquisitor, and it is all over for your life. James is not intending to engage him either. James: "I'll get my rear end handed to me if I fight him now. Not to mention Lucia's too." James shook his head, slowly, at Lucia. He hoped that she receives the message that he is trying to pass to her quietly. Then, James turned back to Joseph, after putting his hood back on. James: "Sorry, I afraid I can't entertain your request!" He took a sword from the ground and throws it to the Inquisitor, before quickly grabbed the Reflector's hand, trying to escape from the park. ![]() ![]() |

[Lucia Hallowground | Evermore city - Trafford Park - Thra Region] The park was already going dark as the sun finally set in the background. The lights from the lampposts being the main source of light where the scene took place. Lucia spotted Mr. Riley just as he finished subduing a couple of witch hunters himself. He jokingly commented on her seeming lack of stamina. But his face seemed to change when he came to notice the carnage Lucia had wreaked upon the hunters she engaged. At that moment, the two heard a gunshot, Lucia felt a chill run through her body, coming from her right shoulder. Lucia: “An elemental gunner?†As she held her shoulder, Lucia turned to see that two new witch hunters had arrived. One being the gunner who had probably shot her, and another Elvin swordswoman who quickly moved defend the man whom Lucia had incapacitated at the foot. The man curiously seemed to have appeared out of nowhere. The girl ordered the Lucia and Riley to tell her who they were, but her partner quickly came to his own conclusion as to who they were. Lucia’s heart sank when the injured Linus acknowledged the gunner as ‘The Inquisitor,’ Commonly known amongst witches as one of the cruelest of the witch hunters, and an elite that Lucia had no chance of competing against wearing only her kimono and wielding nothing but a common dagger. Joseph: "Right then. Alright the both of you! You are under arrest for suspicion of witchcraft, assault and the murder of several witch hunters. If you surrender immediately I may be less inclined to use harsh methods in your questioning. Any attempts to flee will result in your immediate disarmament and I mean that in a literal sense. Surrender now, it will be easier." Lucia didn’t trust his words at all. She had heard several stories of what he his previous exploits. Lucia wasn’t intent on lulling herself into a foolish assumption that he or any other witch hunter would offer any mercy after what she’s done. She looked towards Riley, who made a slight hint that he had some sort of plan. Before she knew it, he had lobbed a sword towards the Inquisitor, and taken her hand as he dashed towards the park’s exit. Lucia almost found herself flying before she quickly gained her footing – and also quickly realized that just running wasn’t going to do much if the man started firing bullets at them. Lucia: “Wait a second, let me handle this!†In mid run, Lucia pulled her hand away from Riley, and instead gripped the back of his shoulders. As she did this, Lucia eyed the park exit, which was a gate that provided a way out from the walled park. Lucia’s next step made a distinct tap, Riley would’ve felt as if he was instantaneously being catapulted through a tornado, and before a second had passed, they were both out on the street outside of the park, the wall of the park making shooting them impossible unless it struck through the brick wall. ???: Miss Hallowground!? Lucia turned to see a man wielding a shotgun wearing a police officer’s outfit. Regardless, Lucia knew exactly who it really was. But before she could speak, Merik was already giving her his escape plan. He spoke to them calmly but quickly. Merik: “You two, go into the sewer, and use it to head to Evermore Cathedral, someone will be there to help you two get out of the city.†Lucia: “W-wait!? Sew-!†Before she knew it, she and Riley where both pushed into an open manhole, Merik used the butt of his shotgun to slide the iron manhole cover back in place, and his tapped on it with his finger - using his ability to magnetize objects, he effectively secured it hard into place. One would have to wait a few minutes or have a skills in lightning magic in order to undo it. Not taking a moment to wait, Merik then ran up the sidewalk, apparently chasing after the two he just helped escape. Merik: “Hey! You two, stop right there, police!†[Lucia Hallowground | Evermore city – Evermore Sewers - Thra Region] The sewer’s depth wasn’t low enough to kill someone whom fell through a manhole above. Lucia managed to land on her feet, but ended up breaking her wooden shoes as she fell, though the wooden box and knapsack was surprisingly still seemingly intact after the scuffle. They both had apparently fallen onto a maintenance walkway that was dimly lit up. Aside from the floor, the two were quickly hit by the stench of the place Lucia: “Ack! It just had to be a sewer, huh?!†A quick look around as Lucia took a moment to properly be disgusted by her surroundings revealed that the walls where crudely marked in spray paint with arrows that described locations, one set nearby pointed towards the Evermore Cathedral that Merik had mentioned. Also nearby was an unconscious man wearing nothing but his undergarments and shoes with a revolver, police sabre and an Evermore city police badge lying next to him, presumably the person who provided Merik’s current police disguise. |

Jack Siphilys - Main City Once the helicopter landed inside the military base, Jack said to Hannah "Follow me" and walked long hallways, turning left and right, and taking the elevator downwards. Until he stopped walking and entered a door to receive his payment from a high ranking officer - two suitcases full of cash. Walked out of the room and handed one case to Hannah, "That's your share, you made my job easier. It's almost time for supper, want to grab a bite? I know a great place." |

[Tirr Runendiel and Anima Grohm | Emerald City, Siphilys] As Tirr explains, the two persons discussed Tirr's story. Zaka: Ah,I remembered you somewhere. Tirr Runendiel,once a famous blacksmith whose equipment you made were cursed and banished thereafter...I heard such stories from other buddies,but it looks like the rumors about the witch isn't that true,huh? Snake: Man,that's one hell of a journey you went on,being possessed by the witch,then used ya to infiltrate the city and stuffs....What else could have gone worse? Zaka: Heh,if I got possessed too,I'll definitely do the same.....With me killing her instead. Tirr (to himself): "It seems my story is well received by them. I guess it's fine to stay in here for awhile." His grimoire glowed ominously, attracting their curiosity. Tirr (to Anima): "What's happening?" Anima (to Tirr): "Sorry...I was in the moment." Zaka: Hey, that book..... Tirr breaks a sweat on what excuse he will tell them. Tirr nervously says, "Let me explain this book." An unexpected reaction comes from Snake who laughs, "Oh, could it be that witch's? You must have taken it as a trophy, right? Nothing feels better than taking a dead man's stuffs for your victory trophy.I LOVE trophies....". Tirr: "Uhh...Yes, you're right. I was getting into that. Sorry if I get into telling my past." Anima (to Tirr): "Tirr, what is he? An idiot?" Tirr (to Anima): "I'm not sure, but I wouldn't say that. They may look like they're acting, especially him. He might have something going on. I also have to be cautious about Zaka the elf. He's my kin and I'll be in trouble if I'm keeping you with me." Anima (to Tirr): "No matter. I guess I can rest easy now, they don't seem too threatening but be careful on what you say. Don't let them stick with you for too long." Tirr (to Anima): "All right." Zaka: Well, either way, it looks dangerous..... Snake: Why not, buddy? Besides, with the witch dead, it shouldn't do much harm, no? ;P Oh, I recalled you're looking for the city hall to sell your stuffs, right? How about letting us come along? I mean, we're both Hunters AND the weapons maker after all. It'll make things easier anyway. Zaka:*laughs* I agreed to that. Anyone from the Council's always a good thing. Makes most of the things easier. The grimoire stopped glowing and Tirr holds on to it firmly. Tirr: "It certainly is dangerous. That is why I took it upon myself since I'm already cursed. Either way, I appreciate that you two help me through this great city. I've been out of any civilizations for a very long time so it's a change of pace for me." Anima (to Tirr): "Just remember not to stay with them for too long. Big trouble if they discover that I'm still living. Tirr (to Anima): "Don't worry. I got this." And so, the hunters/smiths lead Tirr to the city hall. However, Anima still feels great foreboding on what is to come.
