Though she was a little surprised when the child spoke, knowing her name and sounding so strange. Trinity had, in all honestly, thought the child was strangely, really magical, so she wasn't terribly surprised when she put it together that it was Jamie. She decided she might play it up a little, though... how rare is an opportunity like this, after all?

"But Master, you're so cute~" She spins around with her in her arms once, giggling. She turns her head over her shoulder to watch as Karn transforms and carries someone out of the building, and then she catches the fight outside. Between Damian and some lightning user. From the look of things, it seemed the fight was under control, mostly.

"Ah, that's right, I was looking for Karn." She sets Jamie down and pats her head once before she scitters off after the Chimera. She passes Fleo on her way after the large beast, gently touching her shoulder as musician passes behind her. When she gets to her friend, she climbs up on his back, having herself a seat and getting an angle on the fight. As she watches, she conjures a pair of bongo drums and starts to play.

Sayuri

She rolls her eyes and pokes Penny, "Yes, well, maybe that's why I tried talking to you first. I would probably get along with most of the people in the guild... Though Lazarus might be an exception. Seems a little too full of himself if you ask me. But I want to know the person who ran into a collapsing building to find someone that would have been an enemy the day before. Besides Sasha looked to be busy with the kid. I didn't wanna bother them. I'm sure we have more in common than the same hair color," she laughs, "So we just need to find a common ground we can both enjoy..."

"Go look? Um... No..." Zero laughed a bit as he put his hand onto Karn's head and scratched. At least like this Karn seemed more like a pet. Strangely, that was Zero's preference. "I came to make sure you didn't end up getting yourself hurt." He paused and rolled his eyes. "Plus... Zenoram wants a hug. So he's gonna take control for a while." He sighed before glancing at the other mages here. Fleo and Trinity. Fleo was with Karn when he arrived and Trinity just came and mounted Karn. Of course, he knew neither of them. But that wasn't gonna stop him from tagging out with Zenoram.

"Ugh... Finallyyyy~" Zenoram said with a big grin. "It's so boring to be stuck in the back of our head. Zero doesn't try to be social. Like ever." He began to tuck in his button down shirt. "I mean how are we gonna make more friends like that?" He giggled. Yes giggled. Now he was unrolling his sleeves. He did so hate the unkempt appearance Zero chose to portray when he was in charge. He had to deal with it though. It was who his other half was. "You agree don't you Karn?" He tightened the tie a bit and then glomped the beast that was Karn's head. "And I he hates hugging! Who hates hugging?!" The current situation didn't seem to interest Zenoram at all. He was focused on talking to Karn.

"I hate hugging."
"Shush you. You had your turn."
"Whatever. I'm gonna nap now.

With that Zero would drift to sleep and Zenoram was continue to hold onto Karn hugging the crap out of his head since he was larger than Zenoram when in Chimera form.

Mayt looked back at Sasha and nodded, and once he was inside he moved just to the side of the door before shouting. "Phoenix Wingers of both Earthland and Edolas! I'm going to the capital to stop the Golem going to Earthland from completing its mission. Those of you from Edolas are free to come and help, but I am mostly just asking for those from Earthland to come with me. I believe there is a great chance we'll be able to return home, and we'll prevent unnecessary strife and strain in Fiore by doing this, so I'm not giving you a choice in coming along, though I will not make you fight." He crossed his arms, looking among everyone, hoping there wouldn't be uproar.

Mithera sighed, tired of all the fighting and yelling. She stood up slowly, stretching, before pacing around the building, moving with the grace only a feline was capable of, and over to Zenoram and Karn. She walked besides them before sitting down, looking at them with tired eyes and a relatively relaxed posture. She cursed herself silently for not giving more of her forms the ability to communicate properly, and gently pushed her nose against Karn's shoulder to get his attention, and flicking her head in the general direction of most of the guild and the commotion being caused, trying to ask what was going on.

The sudden appearance of water magic gave Janice pause briefly and she retreated out of reach. The slight bit of fear fell away though when it became apparent that this mage was relatively low on the totem pole. Grinning she launched a ball of lightning in between the two to separate them. "How cute. The little water mage thinks she can stop a God Slayer." Having created an opening the lightning user landed on the space and attempted to strike both Ariel and Damien with a deadly blast of electricity.

Completely out of her league the young woman barely had the opportunity to finish her first attack before she was jumping back to avoid getting hit. Her gaze still directed upward she was not prepared for the speed of her opponent and glanced down only in time to get a face full of lightning. For a brief moment the magic being directed at her didn't seem to be doing anything. That luck ran out quickly though as her body had enough of a shock for its purposes and she was blasted backward into a nearby cart. Nowhere near tolerant for such a thing Ariel was down for the count in one move.

As Nolan was passed out he kept tossing and turning, muttering incomprehensible words as he cringed within almost every single second. "No, leave me alone, please."

He ran and ran, running with the absolute instinct of survival mixed with the smell of fear. Everything was burning; buildings were turning into nothing more than cinders as crimson plumes of smoke blanketing the sky. The sound of their laughter, them calling his name over and over again as they chased him through this hell. "Nollllllaaaaaan. Plaaaaaaaaay with us." He could only turn back and saw these shadowed figures with glowing red eyes and white, Cheshire cat smiles that pierced that illuminated through the smog and flames. Their foot steps just kept getting closer, it was like the running of the bulls as Nolan just kept on running in fear of his life. "We wannnnnnnnt yooooou! Come on handsoommmmmmmmme!~"

There were too many! Their numbers seemed like it measured in the thousands, no, the millions! Got to get away! Got to get away! It was the mantra he kept thinking to himself to motivate him to keep on going. There were monsters that he had faced before, but nothing of something of this scale! Never look back, just keep looking forward! His foot steps were inaudible with the army of monsters coming from behind.

A brick wall shadowed him out of nowhere, piercing the smoky sky. It expanded for what seemed to be forever so Nolan ran to his right in his attempt to get away. That's when a building by his side collapsed, blocking his path towards a possible sanctuary. To his surprise, his sword wasn't by his side when he tried to grab it. "Dammit. How about...!" No...his magic wouldn't work! Why?! What kind of sick world was this?! There was only one thing he could do and that was to climb it. As he made his way over it, the shadowy monsters shrieked with laughter and lunged at Nolan, only to be kicked away by him.

Once he made it to the top of the blockade, he began to climb down only to have a piece of wood supporting him break. He tumbled down to the ground, his body completely wracked with pain and he couldn't force himself up. "D-dammit..." The God Slayer looked up at his surroundings...those creatures had finally surrounded him. "N-no no no no no!"

"MINEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!" Screamed the creatures and they all leaped at him, leaving the poor boy screaming his head off. No one can get away from these vile creatures...The Lust Nurses.

Nolan woke up with a start and looked around, sighing in relief to know that it was all just a dream...then he saw Trinity and his face paled considerably. He crashed back down on his back and groaned.

Amaya let out a sigh of great relief that Lucus and Nolan stopped fighting. In truth, they should have stopped him from leaving but she had a gut feeling that wasn't the last time she would see or hear from him. However, she felt her face heat up a bit from blushing when he winked. She quickly pulled her hood over her head, hiding her face.

She looked around listening to Nolab the" powerful God slayer" more of less scream like a little girl when a strange boy in a dress hugged him. This confused her on why he was panicking..was he afraid of possible cross dresser? Or maybe he was scared of girls? Was he afraid of hugs? Supruses? She just stood and watched with a very confused face not knowing what she was watching exactly.

She shaked her head after a few minutes, snapping back to reality. She let out another sigh, missing her ice cream she ate earlier. She shrugged and headed back towards the guild debating whether to search the guild abd take all its frozen treats or to buy herself another ice cream cone...so many choices

Master Jamie gave an indignant sound, and she knew that Trinity was enjoying herself with this, as she spun them around. It was not enjoyable for Jamie. Mainly because she couldn't do anything to stop Trinity. Jamie sighed, resigned to it. "Cute is not something to take advantage off, Trinity!" But Trinity had put her down by now, and run off after Karn, petting her.

But at least she had put him down. Jamie smoothed his clothes, wincing slightly. Trinity's grip, and the subsequent spin had caused some pain on the injury to Jamie's side.

With a heavy sigh, Jamie looked about. Everything seemed okay here, except for the 'Rogue' Magician appearing to have gone off. No matter. Jamie would easily track him down again. It wouldn't be that hard, but something appeared to be happening. Following the others, Jamie stopped as she saw the lighting god slayer, and hte fight around it.

As Ariel was thrown backward, Jamie moved smoothly, shifting forms easily to his normal form, checking the girl quickly for any sign of injury, Jamie, sword suddenly by her side, spun around to face the attacker.

"And just who the hell are you?"



Penny sighed softly, looking to Sayuri. She pondered for a moment what to say, and looked away. "Anyone would have gone into the building. It didn't matter to me whether anyone had a guild mark, or was an enemy. Dying, under a collapsing building? No one deserves that. Oh, I suppose it's fair enough if you die quickly, but to be injured and be trapped, to die as people try to find you? I can't imagine anything worse"

She could. Oh, she could. She swallowed, and shook her head. "All I did was what was required of me. That's it"



Sasha didn't say anything. She knew she wouldn't go back home until the mission they had actually aimed for was done, namely, finding Wes. How could she go home, and say to Master Jamie that they hadn't even looked for him? No, Wes was a member of the guild, so Sasha would stay to find him.

She was sure she could figure out another way home. She turned aside, starting to the stables where the Legion was kept.

Karn's ears twitched as he turned his head a little as he saw Trinity approach before nonchalantly getting onto his back and started to playing bongo drums. He chuckled, his tail flicking with the beat of the music the girl made. "Hi again Minni!" he purred before looking to the Dragon Slayer, not minding the extra passenger.

As Zero spoke, Karn purred and nudged his nose gently to the boy's chest, purring a little louder at the pets. "Awe Zero-kun, you're so nice." he chirped, grinning at the mention of hugs before watching as Zenoram took control and started fixing up the more messy appearance his clothes were at due to Zero.

Listening to Zenoram's complaints over Zero,the beast chuckled a little. "Well I'm sure he's just not used to it. Once he does, I'm sure he'll find it isn't so bad to a bunch of friends ready to give friendly hugs." he chuckled before his face was pretty much glomped.

The Chimera purred loudly, lightly nuzzling the dragon slayer and wrapping his large left paw around Zenoram, practically covering his entire back in a hug. "But hugging does feel very nice. Makes your feel nice and warm." he chirped before his golden eyes flicked to the Panther known as Mithera as she groggily padded over to them, lightly nudging the much larger feline like creature before nodding to the general commotion.

Understanding what she wanted, Karn smiled. "Hi Mythy. Some wizard with sort of exploding magic destroyed a tavern. He wandered off though. And Dammy seems to have run into some sort of Lightning Godslayer and is having a battle. With the help of another wizard that I'm unfamiliar with. But she's using water magic... So I don't really want to get too close." Karn explained, ears twitching to show his nerves toward the water magic.

It was then the unconscious man decided to awaken and the beast could feel the stranger sit up. But even before he could turn his head to greet the man, it didn't take long for the stranger to suddenly flop back down, thumping against the thick fur.

"Hmmm I wonder why he keeps doing that?" he mused, glancing toward the direction of the commotion then the others with a chuckle. "Already a interesting start of the day it seems."

Felix watched the transpiring events as he slowly released the random objects his shield had collected. By the time the boy had left, the iron sand was back in its containers. Felix looked grumpy. The guy just blows up an entire building and barely apologizes for it; doesn’t offer to help rebuild or pay or anything. He was honestly, vividly angry about how this kid was acting. And he was also frustrated by the fact that other than holding up a big piece of metal, he had basically been useless. Sure, some people were safe, but he was sure that many others had been hurt before he had been able to get the shield up.

As his attention was drawn to the fight happening not so far away, he clenched his fists, the metal now back in the containers he transported it in clinking against the side in a flurry. All he wanted in the world was to let loose on this God Slayer. To let fly a barrage of steel and rage that he was fairly certain would at least do something. But he had a gut feeling that he was not wanted in this fight. So, instead, his stomach growling a bit, He stalked back the way he came, heading back towards the pancake shop. He didn’t know if Fleo would follow, but he also wasn’t completely sure he wanted to eat with someone else anymore. Not that any of it was Fleo’s fault; his sour mood just might ruin the experience.

He popped the lid on one of the containers, letting a small amount of iron sand come out into his palm. As he walked, he focused on making shapes with it, creating a shifting, spherical spirograph. He tried to focus on his breathing and making the spirograph move, but there were odd jerks in the shape as it changed.

”Useless…”

[Damian]

Damian didn't have time to get to the girl this time, and could only watch as she basically absorbed the attack with her body. Which couldn't have felt good being a water mage. Lunging forward, slashes upwards to try and knock Janice off balance but misses as she dodges and counters smoothly with a knife hand strike. Ducking, Damian backs up to consider his options when Master Jamie's voice rings out. "And just who the hell are you?" Damian could hear the anger in her voice, but also knew that God Slayers could be too much, even for a Guild Master. Damian hadn't gotten in an actual blow the whole fight, just kept her from casting anything serious. Janice, with a somewhat unhinged grin, faced the guild master.

"I am Janice Belladona, the Lightening God Slayer." For emphasis, she fired off a 120mm Black Lightning Cannon at Karn, the spell's power enough to blow the chimera off his feet and into a nearby wall while dismounting his unfortunate passengers and dump them on the ground. With a growl, Damian launched himself into the fray with her again.

"You'll hurt for that one." Janice only laughed in his face and landed a solid kick to his chest and knocking him back.

"Word spread incredibly fast of your...fiasco with the Magic Council dear Jamie. You've emboldened dark wizards everywhere with your exposure of their corruption and they're all gunning to remove the biggest threat to their plans." Her finger falls on the guild hall, just visible over the other buildings. "I came to give a friendly warning before the others got here in, oh, a week at the least. Then I recognized Damian here and couldn't resist testing him."

Trinity had been half listening to the conversation Karn was having with his friend, but most of her attention was focused on the fight. When this Lightning mage decided to turn her attention toward them, Trinity was ready to respond. But... there was no way she could intercept that kind of attack with just an arrow.

As she jumps down from Karn's back, she flings her bongo drums high into the air. With the same motion, she pulls an arrow from her quiver. She'd been practicing her ice arrows in the recent days, increasing her conjuring speed. She holds it close, using it more like a knife as she swings for the shot. In reality, she wasn't even sure if she could swing that accurately, but she needed the show. Her real plan was to use a small, concentrated personal barrier and deflect the shot away. As she shot hits her barrier, it shatters the first and she has to use a second to finish the job. The shot ricochets just over Karn and down the street, skimming over rooftops. Trinity poses with the arrow, making a show of it crumbling in her hand before she conjures her bow. Her bongo drums disappear back into her requip void, as they fall.

She... shouldn't do that again. That was dangerous.

Black lightning...? No way, another God Slayer? To be precise it was Lightning God Slayer Magic, a magic he encountered quite frequently back in the temple where he elders once lived. Whatever trauma Nolan had been going through with his gynophobia was soon pass and replaced with a feeling much greater than fear: pure rage. Nolan stood up on the ground that he was thrown onto and his cold eyes now burned with a flame as he stared at God Slayer in front of him with a new goal in mind. One that involved her lying on the ground without her head. "This bitch...how dare she call herself a God Slayer." His hair began to flutter around as a magic aura, clouds of black that seemed to be like ash flying in a violent wind. "You fucking disgrace!"

Nolan leaped off and clouds of black ash surrounded him, only to start forming into a truck sized skull with its mouth wide open. "Eat this! Ash God's Gluttony!" He swung his arms down and the skull flew straight towards Janice, the skull of ash would bite down on the Lightning God Slayer and it would explode, the searing hot ash would certainly burn her, hinder her sight, and breathing if this attack were to actually get in contact with her.

The dilemma troubling Fleo was decided the instant that Janice turned her destructive might on her guild members. Seeing Ariel brutally incapacitated and both Karn and his riders targeted simply for show sent spikes of red-hot rage coursing through Fleo's veins. “Serious dick move!” For a few seconds her usual trepidation against stronger foes melted away, leaving a motivated sorceress momentarily unburdened by fear. While the actions of Nolan occupied Janice's attention, Fleo took measures to prepare herself. Against lightning, water -such a ready conductor- was useless, and the unconsciousness of wizard who wielded it served as a testament to her disadvantage. The obvious solution, even through Fleo's surge of anger, was to employ an element not at all conducive to electricity: dust.

All around, tiny particles began to flow in waves toward the dust woman. Plenty of it came from the wreckage of the bar, supplied by the building's heavy damage. It swirled around Fleo as a maelstrom, emitting a high-pitched wailing sound like a bitter wind, waiting, craving to be put to use. Fleo obliged.

“Kurafuto no Chiri: Shixeru!”

As one, the raging cloud condensed around her, a coat of dust several centimeters deep that encapsulated the mage like a statue. The use of her incantation -'Dust Craft: Shell'- in the original language of her mentor Gaudium empowered the magic, giving it greater authenticity and thereby greater strength than would have been imparted by the common tongue. Literally armored in her own element, Fleo ran forward, heedless of any stray lightning between her and Janice Belladona.

Only a few seconds after Nolan struck with his Ash God Slayer magic, and without waiting to see if it was effective, Fleo belted out the original incantation for Silver Wind: “Haiiro no Kaze!” Fleo thrust her hands outward together before moving them apart, drawing a perfectly horizontal line in the air from which gushed a torrent of glinting dust formed into a razor edge. If this attack didn't Janice bloody, or at least slice apart her clothes, it would carry the Lightning God Slayer with it.

Master Jamie glared at the the God slayer, and almost, it seemed like the wind whipped around her. She alreadyd knew that attacking the magic council would put a target on Phoenix Wing, and was not surprised at this.

What he couldn't tolerate was this blatant disregard for people's safety, and the way this mage just Flung his members about, as well as terriorising the people of her city.

"I am well aware of this, and have already taken precautions. Steps are in motion. I will not tolerate this, God Slayer. Leave now. Or face my wrath"

Everything happened pretty fast. Still Zenoram wasn't afraid. Okay that was a lie. He was scared as hell. Luckily the mages around him handled it as he closed his eyes and clung to Karn. He was the exact opposite of Zero. It was likely he could have done something, but he wasn't a fighter. Zero felt the magic power, but didn't take over. There were plenty here to handle it. Thus, Zenoram remained. He smiled. "These people are pretty good." The young man said with a small smile. "I can see why someone might want to join a guild. When the people are like this." His eyes blinked often and he sighed in relief. That was a bit surprising.

Still everyone seemed okay, though clearly angry. Except for Mithera. She was pretty groggy... Or... Well... Regardless. "Hi Mithera. When did you get here? I mean... Did you come all the way from the guild? I thought you were sleeping." He spoke calmly, even if his words were a little quick.

"You know, I think I might want to stay after all." In this time he hadn't made a clear decision. But Zero had decided to let him choose and now he was. Zenoram wanted to stay. There were powerful people. Zero would love that. And there was kindness. People who cared about each other. People who cared about their beliefs. He had experienced it in these short few days and even now during this battle and through their actions and reactions. Yeah. He wanted to stay.

Laying out on the cart she'd crashed into the woman's head was swimming. Her eyes opened slightly and she could hear people talking but it was all blurry and muffled. Her body ached from both the impact and the stress the shock put on her muscles. Things were starting to come back to her. She had foolishly attempted to fight a much more powerful mage and got her butt handed to her. It had actually been the first attack that had every been directed at her and to be honest she thought it would kill her.

Leaning her head up she saw Jamie defending her. Where this person came from she had no idea but it was much appreciated. So far it seemed that all she could do was get in the way. Resigning not to move a sudden jolt of electricity shot through her body again and she sat up. Still hurt like hell and nothing really changed about the situation. Awake after that she was more confused by where the shock came from if she wasn't getting attacked. An after effect perhaps. Wanting to get to her feet she decided against it since her legs felt numb at the moment. More mages were showing up from the other location and it looked like the woman using lightning magic would have her work cut out for her, good. taking another blast was not high on Ariel's list of things to do.

As the Nolan's and Fleo's spells closed in on Janice, she smirked and a bolt of lightning struck her position as Master Jamie issued her ultimatum. The flash forced all the closest wizards, Damian among them, to cover their eyes or become temporarily blind. The spells collided with nothing as the bolt disappeared into the distance. However, a single note survived the twin spells and laid on the ground. Damian stood and picked it up, reading it over with a grimace. "Master Jamie, it's not just any Dark Guilds coming after us. It's a coalition of the strongest ones in Fiore. The ones that we get job requests for three or more S Class wizards."

James came around a corner and heard the worry in Damian's voice and froze. The ever confident Blade of Phoenix Wing was on edge and concerned, then maybe there was cause for the guild to be concerned. He himself wasn't too familiar with the Dark Guilds, aside from those he fought off on escort jobs. Damian handed the note to Master Jamie and say on a nearby piece of rubble. Of course we get an influx of new members and on their curtails rides potential disaster.

Location: Edolas Capitol

The soldier that was always behind the scenes during the fight that occurred a few days ago, has been seen more recently. For the past two days, he's been announced himself as one of Gentsai's followers who also seek the dream of living in Earth Land and spreading that message to groups of people as his journey from town to town. Today was the last day that he could welcome anyone else onto the Gentsai's titan before it left. But before he could welcome anyone else, Gentsai sent him and another follower, Bryght, on a short mission to find the Earth Land members of Phoenix Wing and help bring them back to their home world.

Before, his job was to report news to Gentsai about the current events in the Capitol, so finding someone wasn’t always the difficult. With his luck, he and Bryht spotted two of the possible members of Earth Land Phoenix Wing member, sooner than he expected. “Sorry to interrupt, but I was looking for one of the Phoenix Wing’s Earth Land members and I’m guessing you’re one since our Commander Sayrui doesn’t usually dress like you do. Forgive me, that might have sounded a bit offensive. To the point, Bryht and I are Gentsai’s followers and he would like to welcome you all on a trip home since that is where you and your group are from. Actually, it might be better if I just introduce who we are a bit more.” The soldier removed his helmet and grinned. “The name is Wake, Shutler Wake. As mentioned before, this Bryght and he’s usually the silent type.” Shutler gestured to Bryght as he introduced them and extended a hand for shake.

“It’s a pleasure to meet you Earth Landers. Hopefully my armor doesn't look too weird, but it's something that I have to wear for now.” Bryht said with the friendliest tone. “You can pass on our message if you want. But I would recommend telling me where your friends are since time is short and the departure to Earth Land is coming soon. I can run fast enough to where ever your friends are and inform them so they can have some time to arrive on the titan.”

"We leave in ten minutes!" He turned and followed Sasha out, heading for the Legion as well. He had noticed how Sasha had looked when she had left, and quickly caught up with her, putting a hand on her shoulder gently. "Don't worry about finding Wes, he's definitely heard about people using magic, as well as the golem heading to Earthland. He'll be there probably. Though, I'm honestly am not sure why he isn't in this Phoenix Wing." He smiled a bit, and lat go of her shoulder. "Don't worry about a thing." He moved over to the stable for the Legion, and opened the door for her.

Mithera sighed softly and tensed as the attack came, and relaxed when it never hit. She started to pace off to the side slowly, distancing herself from the fight and saying nothing to Zenoram, growling softly and watching the God Slayer in case she tried to attack Mithera again. She made a mental note to try to find out if it was possible for her to learn magics other than the one she had mastered to defend herself. It would be an interesting prospect, she mused.
