Mayt moved in front of Sasha, holding his sword out at the new attacker, keeping the edge of the blade hot. He let out a long breath, then lowered himself into a stance to strike, sword out in front of him. He waited a moment, before kicking off to the side, and using his magic to redirect his movement towards the one in front of him, striking at her side with the blunt of the blade, then forcing himself down and pushing off the ground back towards Sasha. The strike was mostly experimental, seeing how she would react to a person who could change their motion in mid-air. But he couldn't give her too long.Mayt launched another attack, charging then dropping down, attempting to slide her feet out from under her and grabbing with his free left hand at an ankle, hoping that, even if she jumped out of the way, he could grab her and bring her down. Should the motion succeed, he would immediately let go and quickly push to his feet, rotating to face his opponent, and attempting to put a foot on their chest. Should he fail, he simply pushes himself to his feet and readies himself for the next strike. He was going to make sure no one was going to die. And if anyone was, that it would be the ninja.

Wes Gusto, Phoenix Wing
"You boys having fun out here?" Gentsia said as he joined Angelo on the roof. "Let me try and take it from here if you don't mind." The hermit cleared his voice as he let out a loud yell which attracted most of the vulcans. "Listen everyone! First I would like to apologize for what I might've put your family through and can see that it can't easily be forgiven." Seeing that some vulcans becoming a bit unrest again from that quick statement, Gentsia tried to continue. " But in my way of to apologize for my actions, I have reconstructed my hut to the perfect and bigger living den for your entire family in hopes that we can put aside our differences and just live on this island peacefully" a Vulcan stepped into the newly made den and walked back outside nodding his approval of the improved den. "Its better human so I guess we will let it slide, but we better not see you back on this mountain or any others of your friends unless you want some hostilities returning soon." Smurking that the vulcans are actually fine with the offer, Gentsia nodded back and took his the two mages back to his tree hut.

Back at the tree hut, Gentsia found himself another drink and walked back outside as he began talking about the job now that the ordeal was over. "Well let me be the first to say that you two did and didn't finish my job. Sure the Vulcan problem was settled, but I still don't have my hut back on that mountain. So , do you two having anything the say about these results?"

The boat was slowly drawing close to the island, after what seemed like an eternity. Cordelia stretched out her arms and yawned until her jaw ached, the fact that they were almost there was also a curse as well as a blessing, as she did not like being rudely awoken, even if she was only sleeping by resting her head on the edge of the boat. As she got up to walk around the boat, she realised that the choppy water was beginning to make her feel ill. The only cure for anything that Cordelia knew was playing a practical joke on someone. It was easy at first, she would just pull random cultists' trousers down and run to the other side of the boat in glee, yet it became more troublesome when most had been a victim of her jokes as practically no one was left. The sea sickness returned and her almost lifeless body was left to be slumped over the edge of the boat, trying not to lose any of her body fluids.
"Orders, orders, orders. All I ever get! Ah well, the method is the fun part."

Cordelia closed her eyes and imagined herself in a never ending forest, full of different bugs and insects that she could control.

The job said to settle the Vulcan threat your job post didn't say anything about reclaiming something" Angelo said ad a matter of factly knowing the job specified to desk with the vulcans not get his house back he even said that as long as the vulcanns speed bothering him he didn't care about the methods "so you need to pay us the 120,000 jewel we got attacked by Vulcan and protected you we did the job you specified

Kelthar nodded at Vanu, "My apologies Vanu!" Kelthar said, "I was just trying to soften the mood a bit. Hey at least it's better than getting in a drunken brawl, right?" he exclaimed. He grabbed his drink as he walked around the table. "So anyway, I was gone for a few weeks, did you miss me Vanu?" he asked with a grin. She didn't know it, nor did anyone else but he had always thought Vanu was quite beautiful. "How'd your latest job go Vanu? Pretty easy i'm betting." Kelthar said as he leaned forward toward Vanu.

Kelthar looked at Amelia, "By the way, I know you don't have a certain time, but it was quite rude of me to interrupt you like that." He said with a smile as he set a hand on the table. He looked up at Vanu again, "Hey Vanu, are you parched? Let me order you something to drink!" he said with a grin as he sat back down. "So, tell me." Kelthar Continued as he pointed at the book in Vanu's hands. "What is that book in which you are reading about, is it any good?" Kelthar asked as he tried to get more and more info on her. "If you like books, well I have a ton at my apartment." he said hoping she would be interested. He did worry that maybe he was coming off a bit too strong, but then again, that is just his personality.

Gentsia took another jug from his drink seeing that Angelo is quite keen on what he wrote on the job. "Eh, fine, just can't spare a old man some of his money can you guys. But a deal is a deal I suppose, must of been one of those days that I wasn't thinking straight. Though I could always try and and make another hut if I can find a suitable place, and away from those vulcans. Thanks again by the way." Gentsia rummaged back through his room looking for the 120,000J and gave 60,000 each to both. "I rather split the money now then have you two fight over it and destroy the island y'know, eheheh." having his a little sneeze, he continued. "I also overheard that both of you were waiting for your boat to arrive at sunrise. So if you need a place to stay you could use the underground portion below my hut to rest for the work you two did. And if you need anything I'm either drinking or sleeping in the tree hut." He said as he walked back inside his hut.

"Nice day so far wouldn't you say? Already accomplished our job and got paid. And now we just got to wait for the boat until sunrise, at least we don't have to worry to much about those angry vulcans. We should just rest up and leave while things are still good, right." Wes said as he asked Angelo.

Angelo grinned putting his j in his pocket "and with that it's mission accomplished. Thanks old man" Angelo said bowing a little at his offer to take his basement home then hee turned to Wes "I guess that means we make a good team huh? We should work together more often, I have to say that gravity magic was impressive" Angelo aid grinning glad to have a gravity mage with him as he got a piece of fruit on a tree nearby and gave it to Maj who was asleep in his front pocket

Mayt moved back, panting heavily, and collected the pieces the sorceress claimed to need, putting them in his pocket. "I'll give these back when I'm sure you're not a threat." He pants loudly, resting against the tree and putting his sword up. Ignoring his small cuts and bruises for now. And giving the girl a 'You're lucky Sasha's here' look. His fingers drum on the hilt, and he watches the interaction between the two. Not interrupting, or saying anything. He just relaxed, recovering from the fight. If another attacked, he was unsure if he'd be able to hold them off, especially if they had a magic similar to the one's they just fought. He snorted, Bring it on. He thought. He would be able to handle one more mage, surely, unless they were Rank S or something. He knew he couldn't stand in comparison to someone like that.

The ship was approaching Aroway quickly, and the island's single village was in sight. It appeared that locals had come - expecting the arrival of the Ragged Brotherhood 'envoy'. It appeared as though the welcoming party was composed of the village/island leader, and four guards. The leader was fairly old - evident by his short stature, long beard and lack of head-hair. His skin was tanned, and he appeared to be fairly weak, as he needed a walking stick. Aedius' current force with rivaled the village leader's; with four Ragged Cultists, the addition of two Wandering Legion skeletons, and a Ragged Cultist Ensign - Cordelia Mirelle. Aedius turned to the group, and spoke.

"We're here for the abundance of Lacrima that this island has - nothing more. Violence is a last resort. Do not ruin this." His tone was serious, slightly different from how he would normally act around his fellow Ragged Brotherhood members. Perhaps it was because it was a mission given to him by The First - someone who Aedius greatly respected.

The ship reached the coast, and a bridge slowly descended onto the beach, which Aedius and most of his following walked down. His skeletons had to stay behind, they were there in case things turned violent. The village leader glared at the envoys, and then his own guards before finally speaking.

"What do you want from us?" his tone was shaky, raspy. Fitting for an old man.

"We are members of the Ragged Brotherhood, and our lord requested both unity, and shipment of Lacrima from you - both of which you refused to do. We are here to convince you...otherwise." Aedius replied, smiling smugly.

Cordelia Mirella, The Ragged Brotherhood

The village was gorgeous; flowers of numerous species and colours, exotic animals that she had never seen and the bright, scorching sun. It was a paradise for anybody who adored tranquility and peace. She was no such person.

Cordelia was glad to be off of the boat, the air that surrounded saltwater was disgusting, and she knew a fight was coming. She chuckled as the four cultists who she had pranked anxiously walked towards her as they listened to what the Enforcer was discussing with the village elder. Some sort of demand that wasn't met? Whatever; she didn't like listening to the two Enforcers but she supposed if The First told them to do it, well, she might as well do it too. Of course it was becoming boring, however.
"Fight, fight, fight," It began as a whisper that slowly became louder and louder.

Isaac Milton, Ragged Brotherhood; Currently in Magnolia city

As Isaac wandered the bustling streets of Magnolia, he realized he was hungry.
Coincidentally he was entering an area with many food stands.
He approached a food stand with assorted fruits and was greeted with a smile by the woman that ran the stand.
Isaac took a piece of paper from his bag along with a pencil.
He began to write on the paper in slightly messy handwriting,
"Two appl-"
His writing was interrupted by the woman pulling the paper from him and looking at it closely, then slamming it on the table, "What is this? Why don't you just talk, eh?"
Isaac paused a second and then leaned over the food stand and pulled his mask up just enough to reveal his mouth.
He opened his mouth as wide as he could, revealing the tongueless cavity that was his mouth.
The middle aged woman cringed, looked away and gave him the two apples, "They're free."
Isaac shrugged, dug in his pocket, pulled out a few J and dropped it on the stand.
He didn't pull his mask over his face only to take a bite of his apple.
The lack of a tongue made eating a hassle.
Isaac would have to chew his food longer than usual, and to swallow he would have to throw his head back, because without a tongue, he had no way to push the mashed food to the back of his throat.
Along with this, Isaac could not taste his food.
Once he finished his two apples, he thew the cores on the side of the street and pulled his mask back over his face.
He continued to wander, but considered going back home soon.

BlackCat said
"If I left, who would accept me. Who would accept someone who used to be in an evil guild. And, please give me my pieces, their my only true friends who have always been there for me," Sen responded. None of her guildmates would risk their life for her. But who would accept her, a member of an evil guild. None of the guilds Sen had fought previously would.

Sasha Shin, Phoenix Wing
Sasha knew that both she and Mayt were tired, and she just wanted this to be over. She risked a glance at Mayt, seeing that he was panting, leaning against a tree, and seemed to be covered in small cuts and bruises. And Sasha herself was barely standing upright, her own will to protect a friend was the only thing keeping herself going.

"Phoenix Wing" Sasha said softly. "Phoenix Wing would. If you truly wanted to leave, Phoenix Wing would take you in. Master Jamie would let you in" She looked back to the mage, knowing they still needed to find the herb, the cure for the city, and she just wanted this over with. "Phoenix Wing isn't just a guild. It's a place you can call home, with friends you can trust. Step down...and you can come back with us"

Arkya Kilae, Ragged Brotherhood

The boat ride had been non-eventful. The seas had been mostly clear, and Arkya was isolated from the rest of the Brotherhood. Her reputation was known throughout the Brotherhood. Nobody dared to talk to her, seeing how she would fight them. Most of the high ranking brotherhood members had been on this trip. It was to get some Lacrima crystals, and assimilate the natives, or something along those lines. Arkya didn't really care about those things, though. She had stuck with the Brotherhood because she thought that it would help her learn about her curse, but so far, nothing about it was found. She had sighed, and sat down against the edge, waiting for the boat ride to end.

When the boat had finally stopped, Arkya kept on it. She waited for the negotiations to go south. There was no way that she was going to leave the boat unless she got to fight.

" You'd really let me join? I could leave this guild and have someplace to go, someplace to call home?" Sen asked, that didn't sound half bad. Guildmates who help her and be like family. It sounded too good to be true, but if it was true Sen would join. She would leave her old guild and join Phoenix Wing. They would really forgive her.

"it's really up to Master Jamie, but she's an easy going person, and as long as he thinks you will be a valuable member to Phoenix Wing, the she will let you join. Step down, and we can provide a good word to him" Sasha said softly, watching the Mage.

"I'm Sasha" She said, "And this is Mayt" Sasha quickly glanced about, listening if there was any more of the dark guild around. She also looked for the herb they needed, hoping to find it soon and get out of these mountains.

She would suggest to Master Jamie about bringing a large group here to wipe out the dark guild, but that was for when they got back.

"So, what do you say?"

"I'll join them, my name is Sen, it's nice to meet you Sasha," Sen responded. This would be fun. A whole new guild, with new guildmates. She wondered how they would react to the fact that she was from a dark guild. It would certainly be a shocker. But Phoenix Wing seemed nice enough, like a whole group of friends.

Sasha looked to Mayt and have him a weary smile, stepping back towards him, "then take your pieces back" she said, leaning against the same tree as Mayt. Just to rest a minute, she thought, would be good before continuing to search for Stervia. She took out the drawing she had done, and just on the off chance that there was any nearby, she scanned the area.

She was about to give up hope, before she saw a cluster of the herbs. She smiled to herself, and approached them, kneeling down. She carefully extracted the cluster of herbs, and put them carefully in a bag from her satchel.

"We can go back to the city now"

Isaac soon found himself in a plaza.
He decided to take a break.
The masked man sat on a bench in the plaza.
"Pheonix wing is around here I think." He thought.
Isaac was told of the Pheonix Wing and how they were, "Hoarding knowledge,"
He didn't know if it was true, but if The First had said it, he believed it.
Recognizing the area he was in, Isaac glanced left and right, looking to see if anybody he once knew was around.
He wanted to avoid any unnecessary confrontations.
Isaac used to live in Magnolia city, remembering how great he thought the city was.
But since he'd been away from the city, it had lost it's former luster to him as did the Pheonix Wing.
"I wonder if any people around here know of the Ragged Brotherhood..."

~whoops~

Wes Gusto, Phoenix Wing
"Let's not get ahead of ourselves Angelo, hehe. It's going to take a bit more swaying if you want someone like me on a team, lets just say that you got lucky at catching me at the guild hall today." Wes said as he brushed the tip of his nose. "And we're going to keep the gravity magic quiet, I rather not have anyone else know about it. So if we're done chitchatting, I'm going to hit the hay."

Sun rose out from the horizon of the ocean and the boat that Wes and Angelo arrived on yesterday was returning for their departure trip back to Hargeon. Wes woke himself early so he could say good bye to Gentsia and told him that he was going to the coast where they where dropped off so he could watch the beautiful view while it lasted, and waited for Angelo to arrive too.

Angelo nodded to him "mums the word" he agreed about the gravity magic needing no particular reason to tell anyone anyways and would respect his wishes as he grabbed some fruit and relaxed against a tree watching the sunset with mark in his pocket.

when morning came Angelo groaned softly realizing he slept against a tree all of last night as he saw it was sunrise he stretched causing his bones to crack as he did so then he grabbed some more fruit and shared it with mark as he went down to the docks already seeing Wes their waiting on him as he waved a little "well lets head back so I can go back to my perch" Angelo said laughing a little meaning about how he slept on the support beams on the top of the guild hall where his blanket and pillow was
