[Sosuke Aizen][The Zal'Karrem Ruins, Ulaan][Night] A mighty monolith of old...long since forgotten except in the most obscure of texts stood proudly in the moonlight. Around it was the leftover ruins of what was possibly a temple. There were the Zal'Karrem ruins in the land of Ulaan. The silence of the night was broken by the sound of footsteps.... A man walked alone through the ruins cautiously. In his hand was what looked like a katana that was glowing with blue energy and providing him illumination. He had been exploring this location for sometime already after just arriving. He wore a white haori that shined in the moonlight and a black shihakusho underneath. Slowly but surely he walked up to a mural of sorts that stood ominously alone without much nearby. It was in the shadow of a large mountain behind it and several stairs that lead to other parts of the ruins. The man stepped forwards and examined the mural. he lifted his katana and the light grew more brighter. The act illuminated his face at last. He had brown hair and a scholarly look with brown eyes behind a pair of glasses. He used his weapon as a makeshift torch to inspect the inscriptions of an ancient tongue. Sosuke Aizen also known by many as the professor was in deep thought as he looked at the inscriptions. Koyoka Suigetsu, his katana hummed with power in his hand. He spoke aloud to himself, Sosuke: "The 5 armies came as was foretold...and The Clan...First Born of the Gods...rose to fight them. Now the ones who forged us all...are returning...but do they come to save...or to destroy..." As he tried to find a key to learning more he overhead several pebbles move behind him. He slowly turned around and attempted to look for the source. He begun to walk slowly through the rocky stalagmites with his blade as the ready. The light it gave off was his only source other than the moonlight. He remained on his guard as he shadows around him moved and swayed with the light and wind. Eventually he head more pebbles move and stopped. Straining his sense to the maximum he sensed something behind him. He turned around and a creature that was born from his very nightmares appeared out of the shadows. It was at least 4.5 meters long and looked like some kind of mutated snake-demon. The monster hissed as it saw him and lunged. Sosuke with speed that did not seem normal immediately swung Kyoka Suigetsu at it. The magic that straightened his blade helped him to cut the monster in half. The magic also cauterized the wound as a precaution. He sensed another attack coming from behind. Quick as lightning he spun deftly and avoided another of the creatures that was lunging at him. It crashed in a heap but Sosuke did not stop. He immediately saw two more of the monsters coming towards him. He charged towards the nearest at it reared back its scythe-like arm. Jumping over it's scythe-arm he flipped in the air and dropped on its head. The second incoming monster had neared at this time. Sosuke used the monster's head as a surface and jumped towards the incoming monster. It tried to slash him but he was too fast and grabbed its head and pulled himself close. He saw the beast's monstrous face up close and its bad breath. Sosuke suppressed a shiver at the pure malevolence it the creature's eyes. The creature tried to bite him while flailing around but he ended it but a swift and powerful trust to its brain. His sharp hearing picked up the monster who's head he used as a jump pad trying to slash him from behind. Sosuke withdrawed Kyoka Suigetsu from the monster skull and swung around while turning. As the beast tried to stab him with its arms his own sword cut through it and send it into the air. Blood flowed through the air but Sosuke was already on the move. he leaped into the air and grabbed the creature's own decapitated claw and brought it down hard on it's head. He pieced through its hard skull and the forced pinned it to the ground as it screeched in pain. Sosuke kept it down as it continued to struggle futilely. Suddenly from out of the blue he head a mocking laughter that can only truly be described as evil. ???: "HAHAHA...HAHAHAH..." Sosuke looked around as the source as the laughter grew closer. Eventually he looked ahead of him as a figure emerged from the shadows. The first thing he saw was its orange eyes of pure death looking at him before a face appeared in the light. ???: "I knew that you'd find your way here...eventually..." Slowly as the figure stepped out and he got a look at it. In its origin it was maybe human in nature. But now...it looked like someone had recreated a depraved existence of what looked like a woman. Behind it, two wings made of seemingly bone flexed in anticipation. He finally recognized the...horror before him... Sosuke: "Your presence defiles this place...Kerrigan..." He let go of the claw as the monster finally layed dead and stood ready for anything. The...thing now known as Kerrigan gave him a mocking smile as the moon reached its peak. She spoke to him, Kerrigan: "Do you hear them Sosuke...whispering from the darkness...this world will burn with their coming!" Sosuke gave her an unreadable expression as he seemed to fade into shadow. Sosuke: "Perhaps..." As the shadows that surrounded him disappeared, he was no longer there. Kerrigan frowned and looked around. her piercing orange eyes attempted to find him. Suddenly she looked up towards several stalactites where the shadows seamed to moved around and finally in the shadows of the stalactites Sosuke's figure appeared as he spoke harshly at her, Sosuke: "But you wont live to see it!" He leaped from his hiding place with Kyoka Suigetsu glowing with its blue light again as he attempted to cut Kerrigan down. Kerrigan reared back and from her hands an orb of psychic energy glowed as she launched it at Sosuke. The orb hit dead on and Sosuke was forcefully brought out of his jump as the spell held him in mid air helpless. The air around them seemed to blow in pure energy as Kerrigan looked at him calmly and spoke, Kerrigan: "Please...our petty conflicts mean nothing now...a storm is coming that CANNOT BE STOPPED!" She put more energy into the spell as hit smashed into Sosuke's head and snapped it back. He grunted in pain from the effect. Kerrigan: "Fitting, that we should face oblivion together." Sosuke concentrated as hard as he could and Kyoka Suigetsu in his hand glowed once again in his hand as he roared out loud, Sosuke: "NEVER!" He pushed his way through Kerrigan's spell by pure power and landed on her with his katana blazing in power. He sliced it hard at her and then using her as a springboard leaped in a back-flip some distance away. The light disappeared from his blade as he landed and the ground was smashed by his power. As he stood facing towards she recovered and stood again. A snapping sound was heard and suddenly as she looked at it, her left bone wing fell. Sosuke had managed to completely severed it. The area was so quiet as the only sound heard was her wing dropping to the ground. She looked at it calmly as the shadows once again begun to surround Sosuke as he used them to disappear. He appeared on a ledge some distance away as he grunted while holding his left arm. Kerrigan's attack has possibly cracked the bone in it. Kerrigan looked on calmly as one of the monster from earlier appeared behind her. It was seemingly trying to...comfort her as he petted it like a dog...The creature hissed in rapture as Kerrigan spoke while stroking it. Kerrigan: "Fate, cannot be changed." She stood proudly under the moonlight as the monster withdrawed and slithered away. As he continued speaking, the stump of her wing twitched and another new wing grew from it. Kerrigan: "...And when it finds me...I shall embrace it at last." She then turned and walked away with her monster following. Sosuke stood on his perch and looked on at the scene. He then frowned at her as he also begun to turn. However, he spoke in a voice that carried through the night so that she would also hear. Sosuke: "The prophesy...is uncertain...there is always hope." He then begun to climb the wall behind him upwards towards a glowing light. Sosuke now knew his next mission. He had to find all three parts of the prophesy...before anyone else did.... _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ HYDRALISK ![]() >Very fierce and sadistic monsters. >Hydralisks may attack directly with scythe-like arms or, more commonly, strike from a distance with volleys of armor-piercing spines.

[Kota | Capital] Kota felt Anke tighten her grip on his back as he move through the capital. He found it easier to move around with Anke than with Talisman, maybe because Talisman always grabbed onto his collar or maybe because he was able to move as he pleased without strict orders from the higher-ups. "Let me know if I hurt you." Anke said. Kota’s ears perked up at what she said. “Don‘t worry, as long as you don‘t fall off, I‘m fine.†Kota smiled. “Remember, I’m not a normal dog. You‘re a lot easier to move around with than my partner; he sometimes has a habit to kick.†Kota ran along side the town and its buildings in the shadows to avoid being seen. He came close to the main market street of the town; right in the middle of the capital. As Kota quickly moved with Anke, they moved deeper within the capital, getting closer to the military base. Kota looked around and turn his head to Anke. “I thought at this time I could run through the capital easily.†Kota said waving his tail. “There is too many civilians around to get through without being seen. We‘ll have to take a detour and go around. I hope you‘re not afraid of heights.†Kota looked up and jumped onto a small building. He crouched down as if he was about to pounce on prey and pushed off the ground launching himself, along with Anke, into the air over the street. Kota jumped across the street, landing on a the roof of a building; his paw slid across the ground as he landed. Kota looked around and back at Anke. He jumped to a nearby building and repeated his movements. As Kota moved closer and closer to the Black Op base, building started to get farther and taller. After a short while, they made it across the capital. Kota stopped, he was standing atop of a tall rundown tower, they were near the forest. The area wasn’t a populated as the rest of the city, it looked more controlled and there wasn‘t as lit up from where they were before. Kota could see the Black Ops base off in the distance. Kota walked to the edge of the tower and looked down; standing from the tower Kota could see the next few streets leading to the base. “That’s quite a fall.†Kota muttered and looked over to Anke. “I‘m going to jump. It‘ll be cold for a bit, but don‘t let go one bit.†Kota paused and took a deep breath; he then ran aimlessly jumped off the tower. As he fell he felt the wind rush past his face and pick where he was going to land. He landed in the streets, feeling the ground shake soon after; caused from his landing. Kota turn and looked back up at the tower; he made a long whistle at its height and began walking towards the base. “There’ll be someone there waiting for us, he‘ll take us to my partner.†Kota explained. “I‘ll let you off once we‘re past the front gates. I hope that‘s alright.†Kota continued walking through the empty streets towards the base. As he walked Kota’s nose started to twitch and he began to sniff through the air. -Is it me?- thought Kota. -Or am I catching a faint scent of blood in the air?- [Talisman | Black Ops Base] Talisman was sparing with a fellow Black Op. The two spared, but as it progressed, they began to fight more seriously and the two were no longer holding back. They traded punches and kicks, pinning one another to the floor or wall and throwing each other across the room; the training room was wrecked from the fight. Soldiers watched the fight while others attempted to stop the out of control fight and failed at every turn. Hunter was walking by to the front gate when he saw the fight. Hunter ran in front of a group of soldiers. “Talisman! The heck is going on!?†Hunter demanded an answer. “Half the building is a wreck! How long has this been going for!?†Talisman didn’t let his guard down and continued fighting back. Talisman put his foot behind the soldier and pushed him down on his back. “About thirty minutes!†Talisman answered back. “So what! I asked you to do something for me. Stop asking questions and get to it! Ah hell…†Talisman’s opponent suddenly kick Talisman on his chest while he was on his back and sent Talisman flying into a wall behind him. All the other Black Ops including Hunter stood staring at the hole created by Talisman’s body. Talisman pushed himself up and out of the wall, covered in dust and coughing from getting the wind knocked out. He smiled and sprinted back to his opponent and began trading blows once again. “Talisman, stop!†ordered Hunter. “You‘re going to far, word might get to ‘her‘! You and I know we don‘t need that right now! This is no longer a friendly sparing match.†“Then stop watching over us and do what I asked!†Talisman spat back at Hunter. “This doesn‘t concern you anyways!†Talisman and his opponent paused their fight. Talisman examined himself, he was bleeding at the corner of his mouth and his knuckles were bleeding through their bandages. Talisman’s hands were stinging from with pain. Talisman and his opponent were staring each other down, not daring to avert their eyes. Soon after the two sprinted to each other and started fighting again. Hunter bit his tongue and walked out of the room, heading to the front gate of the base, leaving Talisman to fight. ![]() Black Ops Military Base Central Building |

[Clef Mansion] Fenris had started packing his own stuff, while Vivian was busying herself with her own packing. He didn't have really that much stuff with him, just some clothes and various things to help in travelling. While packing he noticed a leather pouch amongst his clothes that had his name on it. He didn't remember seeing it before so he picked it up. The pouch let out a shingle and it was quite heavy. Fenris opened the pouch and noticed it was holding a reasonable amount of coins, there also was single cast iron emblem, with his father's mark. Fenris: Heh, he always was concerned about money. Vivian, it seems we don't need to be criminals after all. He tossed the pouch next to Vivian. Fenris: And about riding a horse? I know how, but I'm really not that good at it... He thought about where they would be going a little, then he pulled out a map from his pack and started studying it. After a while he called Vivian next to him. Fenris: What if... we told your parents that we would be making a trip here. He pointed at a small town in the seashore south-west of the mansion. Fenris: We could ride the horses there and then head to south from there. We could get a good head start before they would realise that we had vanished. What do you think? |

[Vivian][Clef Mansion] Fenris told Vivian that they had enough money, and tossed a pouch over to her. It contained quite a few coins, definitely enough for them for the time being. She smiled a bit, knowing that they didn't have to steal from her parents now. Fenris also told her that he did know how to ride a horse, although not very good at it, but that was still a relief to Vivian as well. Now I don't have to teach him, Vivian thought, And we're only going to be traveling by horse, it's not like we have to do any special agility with them or something. As Vivian was in deep in thought about the horses, Fenris called her over. "What if... we told your parents that we would be making a trip here," Fenris said, pointing to a town on the map, "We could ride the horses there and then head to south from there. We could get a good head start before they would realize that we had vanished. What do you think?" "That's a great plan," Vivian said, "We'll say we were making a day trip to the town, just for some fun and relaxation, and that would definitely get them off our backs for awhile. And it would be easier to get food from the kitchen this way, and I could just tell the cooks to make us a lunch and a dinner for us to bring... Well, I would still have to get some more dry foods, things that we can save for awhile, but that's about it. The only problem is bringing the horses I want to bring, since one of them isn't my usual horse and my father might get suspicious with that... Can you come with me to the stable for a moment?" Vivian picked up her bag and let Fenris get all of his stuff on as well, then led him out of the house and to the stable. It was a small but nice stable, it was only meant for six horses at most, and Vivian's family only have five at the moment. "And these are the horses," Vivian said, then looked into the first stall and saw that the first horse, her father's main horse, was alright. That's good, Vivian thought, So Fenris can use his back up horse, that one can support my father so it can support Fenris as well. So that leaves the others... Vivian looked into each of the stalls, and started to pet the horse in the last one. She was a brown horse, and only had a white spot on her head. "This one is my main horse, Chime," Vivian said, "But we can't use her, she's a smaller horse, meant more for sprinting and agility than endurance..." Vivian trailed off as she stopped petting Chime and went to the fourth stall and third stall. She let both of the horses out, and put saddles on both of them. She gave the one that was in the third stall, a black one with some white spots scattered on its body, to Fenris. "This is Dusk," Vivian said, "He's a good horse. He's my father's back up if his main one is sick or injured, so he will be able to support you. And he's well tempered and patient as well, so riding him should be pretty easy." She then turned to the horse that was in the fourth stall, a horse in an off white color, and then gave that one to Fenris as well. "And this is the horse I'll be riding," Vivian said, "His name is Fate. What an ironic name, isn't it? Anyway, he's the one I'll be riding. I'll go and get the food now, so please lead them to the main gate and I'll meet you there with the food." Vivian stepped forward and kissed Fenris. "And, thanks," Vivian said, "I know this is all sudden, and it ruins some things too, but... I'm glad you're with me." She was blushing slightly, and then started to walk away to the mansion. I hope we could have told Anke before we left, Vivian thought, But I know we can't. Not the entire story at least. Actually, now that I think about it, I haven't seen her all day. Maybe she's still sleeping, or we just haven't bumped into each other. I don't know, I haven't tried to look for her, and I can't now. I hope she'll forgive me for not saying anything... When Vivian reached the kitchen, she told the chefs the trip they were taking to the town, and in an instant they were busying themselves making a lunch and dinner. While they were busy, Vivian managed to grab some loaves of bread, along with some sort of spread, and put it in her bag. She found her mother in the dining room, and told her about the "day trip" she was taking with Fenris. Her mother was glad they would be spending the day together, and easily let them go. It's easier to lie to her than to my father, Vivian thought, After all, my father was the one who taught me how to tell when someone is lying... Once the meals were done, Vivian went out of the Mansion and headed to the main gates, to where Fenris was waiting for her. To where our new lives will begin, Vivian thought, and she smiled. ![]() |

Anke l Black Ops HQ Anke clung to Kota for dear life as he jumped from roof top to roof top. He was talking to her, telling her to hold on, saying that she was easier travel with. Silly things, words of encouragement. She just stayed quiet keeping her eyes buried in Kota's fur so she couldn't see where she was going. When he told her e was going to jump of and free fall from a building she gripped the dog so hard her knuckles turned white. When she felt the dog land softly on the ground she uncovered her eyes. They walked though the gate and Kota let her off his back and onto the ground. She stretched her legs and began to walk beside the dog. "So who are we looking for here again? Can I ask why I'm here now?" |

[Clef Mansion] Fenris had followed Vivian to the stables and took the reigns of the two horses while Vivian went to get the food and inform her parents about their "short" trip. He wasn't happy that they had to deceive them, but that was pretty much the only choice left for them. At least that was the conclusion he and Vivian had come to. By the time he had arrived at the front gate he had noticed that the horses were quite nervous and he wondered why. He realised that he could vaguely feel what the horses were feeling, but it still took him a while to realise that he was the reason they were nervous. He apparently had more akin with wolves than he had previously thought and that was making the horses a bit nervous. He tied Dusk down and grabbed Fate's head between his hands, the horse tried to back away, but Fenris held it still. After a moment it stopped struggling and Fenris looked it straight into the eye. After a moment he let go and Fate stood still for a moment, then it sniffed his hand and neighed and then started grazing. Dusk had watched and it also had calmed already when Fenris untied it. After he had done the same thing with Dusk and released it too. Dusk however reacted a bit differently it sniffed his hand, but then it started rubbing it's head against Fenris. Fenris let out a laugh and petted Dusk's head. Fenris: Yeah, I feel like were going to get along fine. He then felt something pushing his side. He looked down and noticed that it was Fate. Fenris: You want some too? He smiled and started petting the head of the smaller horse also. It neighed happily and rubbed it's head against Fenris. Fenris: We're going to have a hard trip ahead of us, but you two can aid us right? Both of the horses neighed and then stood next to him and looked into the direction of the mansion, as if the two horses also realised that they were waiting for someone. |

[Vivian][Clef Estate] Vivian made her way to the front gates and was happy to see Fenris getting along with the horses so well. I knew they would like him, Vivian thought, They're pretty well tempered too. "Seems like you guys are getting along nicely," Vivian said as she came closer to Fenris and the horses, "That's a good sign, since we're going to be together for a long time..." Vivian put some of the food she got into a pouch on Fate's saddle. She petted Fate a little bit, then got on him, and let Fenris get on Dusk. "I guess we're all set," Vivian said. She turned back to the mansion for a moment, but although she looked sad she had no regrets for leaving. Considering the situation, Vivian thought, We have to leave. "Well, let's get going," Vivian said as she led Fate onto the road, "Since we're on the horses we'll be making good time with all of our traveling." Vivian led the horse down the road slowly, getting a feel for how the horse moved, and as she was getting comfortable with his movements she let the horse go a bit faster. She looked over to Fenris, who was riding beside her. "We'll let the horses go at this pace until we reach the town," Vivian said, "We need them for endurance, not speed, and they're going to have a long day ahead of them. Since we're on the horses, time isn't really a matter now since we're still going faster than we would have on foot. I was also thinking about going a bit faster after we've reached the town. Are you alright with that?" Vivian looked down to Fate and Dusk, then to Fenris and smiled. It seems as though things will work out for the better, Vivian thought, Considering how we have a plan now, a loose one but still a plan, and how the horses have taken such a liking to Fenris too... This seems to be turning out alright. ![]() |

[Kota - Talisman | Black Ops HQ] Anke and Kota walked past the front gate of the base. Hunter caught sight of Kota with Anke as he walked out of the training building and walked towards the two. "So who are we looking for here again?" asked Anke. "Can I ask why I'm here now?" “We‘re looking for one of my friends.†answered Kota. “Does a name with Hunter sound familiar? And didn‘t you find out already. You came here with me for info regarding your brother if I‘m correct.†“Major Kota! You‘re late.†called out Hunter. Hunter walked up to Kota and stared at Anke. “Nice to finally meet the girl the Lt Col. is interested with. Well I advise you to be careful, Major.†“This is Sgt. Hunter, he‘ll take us to my partner.†Kota said to Anke and turned to Hunter. “Don’t call me Major, I told you that before. By the way, Hunter, wasn‘t Talisman suppose to follow right after you, where is he?†“Ah, well, about that. He’s training a will be joining you two soon.†Hunter scratched the back of his head and sighed as he turned to Anke. “Follow me you two I‘ll take you to his office. Miss, let me be the first to welcome you to Black Ops Headquarters.†Hunter guided Kota and Anke further into the base. As they walked Kota started to hear people cheer and a thrashing sound come from the training building. People that were near the building heard a ruckus coming from the building. Talisman’s fight was slowly getting farther from the training mat in the building. During the out of control fight, Talisman found out his opponent’s name; Kimblee. Talisman’s hands were stinging with pain. Talisman threw a punch at Kimblee, but left an opening; Kimblee quickly side kicked Talisman’s chest and sent him flying at a window of the building. Kota continued following Hunter not knowing what to say. Hunter was calm but he wasn’t saying a word as he guided Anke and Kota. Kota didn’t like awkward quietness. Kota was about to ask Hunter a question when he suddenly heard the sound of a window breaking to his side. Kota and Hunter quickly turn their heads to their side and saw Talisman fly through the glass. Talisman landed on his back and tumbled on the ground till he slowly stopped. Talisman lied still, facedown on the ground, he then slowly started to push himself up to his feet. Hunter and Kota stared at Talisman with dropped jaw faces that said ‘I can’t believe this is happening again’. Talisman stumbled to his feet as he felt blood start to drip down over his eyes and started to laugh. Kimblee jumped through the broken window and walked to Talisman with his guard up. Talisman stood staring at Kimblee with narrowed eyes. He sprinted to Kimblee as fast he could; when Talisman came within arms reach, Kimblee stepped forward and threw a punch aimed for Talisman’s head. Talisman quickly leaned back, dropped to the ground to dodge, feeling Kimblee’s punch just graze the hair hanging in front of his face. As Talisman hit the ground he kicked the back of Kimblee’s legs, causing him to fall on his back. Talisman quickly jumped on top of Kimblee, pinning him down on his back and started throwing punches down on Kimblee; Kimblee had his arms free and also struck punches at Talisman as he was on his back. Hunter and Kota watched Kimblee and Talisman strike each other with viscous punches. Kota then addressed Anke to embarrassed to face her and pointed his paw at the two fighting. Black Ops around the area stood and watched the fight. “Believe it or not miss, the moron with the ponytail that’s also bleeding through the bandages on his hands,†Kota paused and sighed before continuing. “Is my partner.†Hunter rubbed his hand on the back of his head unable to explain to Anke anything of what was happening. Kota suddenly heard footsteps quickly march behind him. Kota quickly turned around and saw his and Talisman’s higher-up; the person they feared to upset; their Brigadier General known as Riza. The Brigadier General walked closer and closer to where Anke, Hunter, and Kota were standing. Kota quickly kicked Hunter with his back leg to get his attention. Hunter turned and saw the B Gen. and quickly stood to his side saluting to her in attention to a higher up; Kota stood to his side and stood firmly next to Hunter in attention. As she walked by she raised her hand for Hunter and Kota to stand at ease and patted Kota’s head; she stopped in front of Hunter and the others watching the fight. “How did this happen?†she asked. “It would seem the Lt Col. was sparing with Kimblee and the fight grew out of control, ma’am.†informed Hunter. “I apologize for not stopping this sooner.†“No… you did the right thing to stay out of the fight.†said Riza. Riza glanced at Anke and proceeded to walk toward the brawl. She walked up to Kimblee and Talisman, who were still throwing at punches at one another. “That is quite enough!†Kimblee and Talisman immediately paused, with their arm about to strike each other. Their heads quickly turned and shocked to see Brigadier General Riza standing before them. Talisman quickly stood up and saluted at Riza, followed by Kimblee. Riza spoke sternly to Kimblee and Talisman giving the two a small lecturer. Kimblee and Talisman stood nervously unable to get away. Riza turned away to face the other Black Ops and ordered every who was watching to get back to work and turned back to the two fighter. “Do not let the this happen again.†Riza ordered sternly. “The training room is a wreck because of this. Kimblee, your captain needs some paperwork done. I suggest you get to work.†Kimblee nervously nodded his head and ran off leaving Talisman to Riza. Riza stared quietly at Talisman with her arms crossed. Talisman was unable to say anything. “You need to stop this, Talisman, look at yourself; you‘re a mess. You have a meeting you told me about, correct?†said Riza staring at Talisman. Talisman didn’t make eye contact or say a word, instead he nodded his head. “I see, I’ll send a clean up crew to take care of this mess. I advise you get to your office immediately. And Talisman, clean yourself up. You‘re dismissed soldier.†“Thank you ma’am.†Talisman said with a salute. “I‘ll get to work immediately.†Riza turned around and proceeded to the central building. Talisman let out a huge sigh and started to walk in the same direction as the Brigadier General. Talisman walked with his hand behind his back and stopped. He turned his head to side and motioned his hand forward and continued to walk. Kota saw the hand motion and started to walk forward. Hunter turned to Anke. “I’m sorry you had to see that.†Hunter apologized. “Please follow me. Kota and I shall take you to your meeting without question.†Hunter and Kota started to guide Anke to Talisman’s office. Riza ![]() Hunter |

[On the road] The Clef Mansion had just disappeared behind the horizon and Fenris was starting to remember how to move while riding a horse. He patted the side of Dusk's neck. Fenris: Thanks for bearing with me, I know it must be quite hard for you. Dusk neighed and threw it's head back. Fenris let out a laugh. Fenris: It seems Dusk wants to go faster. Dusk neighed again. Fenris: Okay then let's ride to that hilltop, full speed. Dusk lowered it's head and picked up the pace, Fenris flattened himself against Dusk's back, enjoying the wind blowing through his hair. He turned back to Vivian, he was grinning widely. Fenris: Well be going ahead. Dusk then started galloping ahead, leaving a dust cloud in it's wake. |

[Vivian][On the Road] Vivian started laughing as Fenris and Dusk went ahead of her and Fate. "I'll be right behind you!" Vivian called out to him, and let Fate go a bit faster, but not as fast as Fenris and Dusk were going. Just so they're in our sight, Vivian thought with a smile. As she rode Fate along the country road, she looked around at the scenery around her and started to drift into her thoughts. So... A baby huh? Vivian thought, Fenris and I are going to be parents... It's nice, when you think about it the way I do. I mean, I've wanted to be a mother someday... Although I do have to admit this is so soon. But, what if I'm wrong? I know there are those kind of things, people overreact and think they're pregnant and such. Am I just overreacting? Could this just be some sort of strange sickness, and we ran away for nothing? As Vivian started to think about it more, she felt more sickness coming. She slowed Fate down, then got off of him and threw up at the side of the road. When she was done, she got back on Fate and started to head after Fenris again, this time going even faster to catch up to him. No, Vivian thought, This sickness is too strange, too weird... It can't just be some normal sickness. Plus, everything that's been happening to me with this, it's just like the book in the library said. Good thing I brought that, I'm going to need it. My parents won't notice one book missing when their daughter's missing... For awhile, Vivian let her thoughts drift, thinking about how her parent's and in-law's would be grandparents soon, and then bringing her thoughts back to the child. It'll be hard work, Vivian thought, But I think we can handle it... But... Wait... This means having the baby too... Vivian gasped at the thought, realizing how unprepared she really was for this. Oh my gosh! Vivian thought, That's so... Scary. And even getting past that, would it be? It needs to be some place with a lot of help and such, I'm going to need it when the time comes. But it has to be clean too, and have the proper things needed for that sort of thing... And then there's the issue of what to do after it's born, if Fenris and I still need to be on the run it would definitely be harder to bring a child with us... While Vivian was thinking about this, she managed to catch up to Fenris. She looked over to him, and smiled. I guess we can worry about that kind of stuff later, Vivian thought, It'll be awhile until then anyway. Nine months, or something like that. So that stuff can wait for now. They made it to the top of a hill, and Vivian could see the town they were heading to at the bottom of it. Vivian turned to Fenris. "There's the town," Vivian said, "We made great time getting here." As she was talking, Vivian could feel some more sickness coming on. "Uh, could we stop in the town for a bit?" Vivian asked Fenris, "It won't be too long, and there's also something I need to give you for this trip." ![]() |

Anke Faustus l Black Ops HQ Anke was being lead though the compound by Kota and a man called Hunter. Anke was a little surprised to find out Kota was a major. Not because he was a dog or anything, but just because she hand't really figured the military let dogs into their ranks. She shrugged it off and continued to follow the two men around the complex. They were having a conversation and she was absently listening in, drifting in and out of her own thoughts. Where is my brother? He is here, I can feel his magic's aura, but where? The two men had been discussing why Kota's partner hadn't been there to meet them, and Anke briefly picked up on the fact that he was sparring one of the other black ops soldiers. Before too long she found herself standing in front of a half dilapidated building. The damage looked pretty fresh, and she figured it had been caused by the two fighting soldiers. One of which she recognized as the man she treated back at the Stormcaller mansion. “Believe it or not miss, the moron with the ponytail that’s also bleeding through the bandages on his hands,†Kota sighed, “Is my partner.†Anke looked at Kota and then back at his partner. Her suspicions that she had met him before were confirmed. Anke stood with her two escorts just watching the fight, waiting for it to end, when another girl walked up. She was introduced as Brigadier General Riza. Anke stood still as the general talked to her subordinates, and then stepped into the fight and made the two fighters stop. She sternly scolded them individually and dismissed them. When she had left Hunter let out a relieved sigh. “I’m sorry you had to see that, please follow me. Kota and I shall take you to your meeting without question.†he said. Anke nodded, "Okay..." She allowed herself to be lead into a small meeting room, not knowing who she would expect to see there. Would her brother be there too? She would be meeting with Tailsman, but she really, really hoped her brother would be there as well. |

[On the road] Fenris had stopped on top of the hill to let Vivian and Fate catch up. He watched the town at the bottom of the hill. It was another small country village so like many others, he knew the two of them would most likely to be the talk of the day, but it couldn't be helped. Vivian: "Uh, could we stop in the town for a bit? It won't be too long, and there's also something I need to give you for this trip." He looked at Vivian and smiled. Fenris: Sure, we don't have to hurry, not yet anyway, and the horses could use the rest too. He guided Dusk next to Fate and put his hand on top of her head. Fenris: You lead on little lady, I'll be right behind you. |

[Vivian][On the Road] "Sure," Fenris replied, "We don't have to hurry, not yet anyway, and the horses could use the rest too. You lead on little lady, I'll be right behind you." "Alright," Vivian said, and she started to lead Fate down the hill and into the town, with Fenris and Dusk following behind her. Vivian could still feel the sickness coming on, so as soon as she saw a small shop, she started to get off of Fate and gave him to Fenris. "Just excuse me for a moment," Vivian quickly said, and then went into the shop and threw up more in the bathroom there. This is terrible, Vivian thought, How long do I have to put up with this? When she was done, she quickly went out of the shop, trying not to let the worker there see her, and took Fate from Fenris. "Sorry about that," Vivian said, "This sickness is terrible..." She then remember about what she had to give him, and went into her bag and pulled out two black cloaks. "I hope this will fit over what you're wearing now," Vivian said as she gave the larger of the cloaks to Fenris, "They're cloaks that can work with Illusion Master magic, and if you hold your breath you'll turn invisible. Only with you, you'll have to be touching me in some way in order for it to work..." Vivian put on her own cloak and held her breath for a moment to demonstrate, and then breathed out so Fenris could see her again. "This is just in case we run into some trouble," Vivian said as she got on Fate, "Better to be safe then sorry." She looked down the street they were on, and then turned back to Fenris. "So, should we keep on going?" Vivian asked Fenris, "Or rest for a bit and have something to eat? I'm not hungry at all, but if you want to have something then that's fine." I don't think I'll be really hungry for awhile, Vivian thought, With all this sickness and everything I can't eat much anyway... ![]() |

[Sosuke Aizen][Suramar][Morning] It had been over a week since the events at the Zal-kareem ruins. Sosuke managed to find a scripture before leaving that gave the general locations of the 3 parts of the prophesy. The Zal-kareem were at the North, and the scriptures seemed to insinuate that each piece was in a different part. The locations were hidden in riddles. Sosuke managed to decipher one which went like this: "Come and Seek us Where Our Voices Sound, All that glitters is not gold, The song of the sea is both friend and foe, Take head stranger lest a curse steals your soul." After reading this, Sosuke turned bone white. He could only think of one location where the riddle would lead: The Tomb of Sargeras. The tomb was located West in the ancient Kaldorei city ruins of Suramar. Sargeras was once a powerful and evil necromancer whom nearly dominated the West of the world. He was eventually defeated and entombed in the great city eons ago. It was said that there is a curse in the city that preys on unwary travelers. Sosuke is not afraid of any curse. As he stand on a cliff overlooking the seaside ruins he is only afraid of one thing: The Naga. Naga are sinister, ophidian humanoids that dwell beneath the ocean. They were said to be elves at one time but evolved bizarre oceanic mutations. In all naga, many of these mutations are simply cosmetic — soft spines running down their backs, or extra fins adorning their arms, for instance. Some naga, though, also possess mutations that have a more substantial effect. In this way, the race has developed an array of genetic variations and defenses, such as ink jets, tentacles, razor fins, venomous fangs, hardened barnacle carapaces and spined fists. The men are thickly built, with humanoid torsos merging into a serpent hind section. Their scales are large and thick, and their heads are reminiscent of dragons, showing little sign of their elven ancestry. The women are tall and slender, with fine scales covering their angular features. For some reason these strange race were often found in the furthest reaches of the West which was more Archipelago-like then the other parts. A large number of them were often found patrolling these ruins at any time of the day. In the sky of the ruins, Couatls that were tamed by the naga flew over the ruins. Eventually he made is way down and snuck into the ruins. Sosuke spent a lot of time dodging and avoiding the naga patrolling. However somehow, one of the damned Coatl in the air saw him and signaled to its masters. The result was pretty much every naga in the area tearing after him through the city. Sosuke lead them on a merry chase while tossing spells left and right at them. He made sure to only use his weakest spells to avoid them seeing the better ones. Eventually after an hour, they finally caught him. He was hog-tied and taken to the tomb itself. As he was set down, a female naga which had turquoise/light blue skin, six arms, a long, scaly tail with pink fins, and snakes instead of hair on her head moved towards him. Sosuke pales as he recognized her from the stories about her. Standing before him was the naga's High Priestess and leader, Lady Vashj. She smirked towards him and spoke, Vashj: "Now what could a human be doing here of all places hmm? Sosuke: "Well I heard that the scenery here was just lovely and had to see it." Vashj smiled: "Ah...then tell me human-" Sosuke interrupted: "Aizen. Sosuke Aizen, but please call me Sosuke." Vashj chuckled at him: "Sosuke then. Now tell me, how did you find the scenery to be?" Sosuke: "Well, the sunrise was beautiful but this place could use some new paint." Vashj was full of mirth: "I'll see if we can get on that. On to more serious matters young master Sosuke, what is your intention here? Are you another foolhardy adventure come to slay me for eternal glory? Or perhaps you are planning something involving the tomb here?" Sosuke snorted: "As if. If it was up to me I would be as waaayyyy far away from here as sanely possible." Vashj: "And yet here you sit before me. Does this mean that you lack in sanity?" Sosuke: "Sometimes...duty must prevail over common sense." Vashj: "Do I ever know the feeling. Speak you intention young master." Sosuke: "My lady, I come here in peace. I desire no conflict with you and your people at all. I have come here to find something entirely else. I have found a clue that informed me of the presence of some scriptures of an old language here." Vashj: "I know of what you speak off but I do not trust you. It is impossible to guaranty that you will not attempt to do something more sinister." Sosuke: "But my lady-" Vashj: "Remain silent. I am not finished. I saw you as you lead my most feared warriors on a merry chase through this holy ground. You avoided harming them fatally with you efforts. For this I shall grant you a chance to prove yourself." Vashj snapped her fingers as two naga stepped out from the crowd. She then cnotinued, Vashj: "I want you to duel with Hydromancer Thespia and Overseer Shalzaru before you. They are amongst my greatest warriors. Your performance against them will determine your fate." Vashj then ordered Sosuke to be released and Kyoka Suigetsu to be returned to him. The other naga moved back to give them a wide space with Lady Vashj sitting on a throne viewing the proceedings. Sosuke knew that this was going to get messy... _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Hydromancer Thespia >A powerful naga siren. Naga sirens are the female mage variant for naga, also known as "naga mage". Sirens are more common than naga sea witches, but still deadly, using their magic to incapacitate foes >Naga women are their race’s spellcasters, and over the millennia they have developed a number of talents and techniques related to their art. Through intense study they learn to expand their repertoires to include other, unrelated spells. Their spells strike with the fury of the sea, whipping and crushing their opponents. Naga magi receive some military training as well. Overseer Shalzaru >A myrmidon royal guard. Of all the naga, they are the most fanatically loyal to the point where they no longer bother acknowledging orders – they simply DO them. They wield large tridents in combat with ridiculous ease. >Even though the Naga society is female dominated with mainly females studying magic, these creatures are by far the strongest units in the naga army possessing both immense physical and magical power. ![]() |

@Jon-Sorry for not posting here dude.This time of year is very busy for me.Curse you Exams!!! __________________________________________________________________________________ [Kenji Kurayami|Academy] "Sucking up?" he said with amusement. "No no,I am just merely being hospitable,as you said.Even I would be tired and sleepy from the travels you have made,wouldn't you say so Mr.Aeon?" he said as he turned towards Aeon. "Anyway,I don't like to talk here out in the open.After all..You don't know who might be watching." he said to them as he looked around. "Now if you'll follow me."

@Ken - It's fine. School starts for me next week, I'm surprised you're already doing exams. [Academy] Vincent continued inside and looked around. The building looked like it had been abandoned for ages, but it had only been a few weeks. "Such paranoia is rather funny coming from you considering how you decided to introduce yourself to me." |

'Aeon' | Academy 'Aeon' disagreed with Kenji, but still nodded to move things along. He didn't really know what to think of Kenji, but he was sure he was about to find out something useful. As they walked 'Aeon' took a good look at his surroundings, comparing the academy he now walked through to the academy he had been many years ago. He last visited a long time ago, and even though Vincent claimed to have graduated just recently, it seemed like the place had been abandoned for quite some time. "Such paranoia is rather funny coming from you considering how you decided to introduce yourself to me." Vincent said as they walked. 'Aeon' wanted to reply, but he felt like somewhat of an outsider here, and decided to keep his mouth shut and followed silently. |

[Talisman - Kota |Black Ops HQ] Hunter and Kota guided Anke into the central building and proceeded to walk to Talisman’s office. As the three walked Kota noticed other Black Op soldiers stared at Anke as they passed by; it was very rare that civilians would be in the base. Black Op soldiers in the base were busy; delivering paperwork, dropping off boxes, but most of them, as they passed by, would greet Hunter and Kota. The building had different levels depending on the area. Anke, Hunter, and Kota were in the central building, which had four levels. Hunter and Kota escorted Anke to the fourth floor of the building; where most high-ranking soldier had their own office, including Hunter and Talisman. Kota saw Talisman walking in the hall to his office. A Black Op soldier caught Talisman before he entered his office and handed him a stack of files and package; Talisman thanked the soldier and dismissed her. Talisman pushed open the door to his office and closed the door he entered. Talisman walked to the bathroom in his office, tossing the files and package he had just received on a cabinet next to the door way of the bathroom, and began to clean himself of the sweat and blood and patching up his injuries; including his bleeding knuckles. Soon after Anke, Hunter, and Kota were standing in front of Talisman’s office. Hunter opened the door and let Anke and Kota enter the room. “Hunter, you will stay out here and don’t let anyone enter the room unless it’s the Brigadier.†said Kota. “We don’t need anyone causing us problems. Knock three times if anything should happen.†“You two better know what you’re doing.†advised Hunter. “Should anything go wrong, you guys will be on your own. Neither the Brigadier nor I will be able to help you if anything occurs. Everything with be set by the time you guys are done.†Kota understood and nodded his head at Hunter. Hunter glanced at Anke and shut the door leaving Anke and Kota standing in the room. Kota began to walk around the room scanning the pictures on the walls from their old mission. Talisman’s wide desk sat facing away from the window that overlooked a training area for new Black Ops. To the right of Talisman’s desk towered a wide bookshelf filled with informational books on memory spells and a few other books that concerned dark magic. There were two couches that sat facing each other with a small table between them and two other chairs sitting in front of Talisman’s desk. The size of the office was considered standard for Black Ops like Talisman, but to others, the room was rather large. Kota lifted himself over Talisman’s desk scanning the files, pictures, and books Talisman had been look at. Kota noticed a new framed picture sitting on the desk; it was picture of Yuri. Kota laughed at the picture, feeling nostalgic. “Ha, soon he finally put her picture up on his desk; it was only a matter of time.†Kota laughed. Kota dropped himself from the desk, walked over to the couch, jumped up and sat down turning to Anke and nudged his head toward a cabinet across the room. “Hey miss, do want anything to drink? Tea, coffee, water, sake’... name it; you can help yourself to our rations. My partner won’t mind at all. Speaking of which; Talisman, what are you doing? †Talisman was still cleaning himself up in the bathroom from his fight earlier. Talisman was washing his head, cleaning blood from his hair when Kota called out to him. “What do you think, Kota?†Talisman called from the bathroom. “I know you saw the fight. I’m cleaning off all the dirt, sweat, and blood I’m covered in.†“Really? I thought I noticed the damage to the training building was your work.†Kota spoke sarcastically. “And you were even scolded by Ms. Riza again.†Talisman finished cleaning and began changing into a new pair of clothes. He change into black pants then tied on his boots and slid a white t-shirt over his torso. Talisman quickly bandaged up his stinging hands and grabbed a towel to dry off his now loose hair; he hid his tail under his clothing and his ears under his hair. He opened the door to the bathroom with the towel still over his head and faced and walked up to Anke with a smirk of his face, extending his arm for Anke to shake his hand. “Been a long time since we last saw each other, hasn’t it, miss Anke Faustus?†Talisman made a slight smile. Talisman stood waiting to see Anke’s reaction. |
