Penny sighed heavily, and shook her head as Gentsai disappeared. She studied the walls. "Well. This is as good a time as any to use the new move I've been practising" She spoke to herself, musingly, and stood there for a moment or two.

She seemed to chose the best place to attack, and said "Phoenix Inferno!" flames danced in front of her, spinning, spinning, spinning so fast, it seemed like the flames should die for lack of oxygen, but they didn't. They got hotter and hotter, engulfing the oxygen left in the walled off room.

She would have one chance.

The attack charged towards the wall opposite the anima, as she figured that would be the thinnest. The fire borrowed through the wall, dying off as it broke open a hole. Penny stumbled, the attack taking a lot of energy out of her.

One attack tested. Would be interesting to learn if the other, new attack works too. But that's for when we are home. Too hard here She thought to herself, as she crawled out the enclosed container.

Her flames engulfed her, and she floated in the air, pondering what to do again.



As Sasha saw the hole, and the fact that it was shrinking, she twisted about, breaking Lazarus's grip, landing on her snake staircase as it formed, she quickly thought about what she could do to prevent the hole from shrinking. "Ice Make: Butterfly cage" the butterflies formed within the hole, close together, as if they could stop the hole from shrinking. She jogged down her staircase, not thinking about what she was doing.

She dove into the hole, and began to move through it, for once, glad for her small stature. She looked back to Lazarus just before she went into the hole, her eyes wide. She didn't know if the butterflies would slow the hole shrinking or not. She would just have to run fast. She didn't think Lazarus could go through.

She smiled. "I'll be okay!" she shouted to him, before entering the hole, and hurrying through.

Lazarus

Sasha scrambled away from his grasp and managed to get inside the titan with the use of her own magic. He glared, somewhat confused. The hole was closing behind her too, and fast. He let himself fall from the sky, to build up speed before extending his wings and darted for the hole. He was travelling at his max speed, and that was something. He put his fists oit infront of him, preparing for impact with the closing hole. "Regulus impact!!!" His fists glowed white as he hit the tiny opening with massive force, shattering Sasha's ice and the wooden material. He landed next to Sasha in a heap. He rose, dusting himself down and clenched his fists, cross. "we were almost separated forever." He pointed to his arrow wounds. "This is a dangerous place, more dangerous than our own world." He sighed. "We are a team. Let's protect eachother Sasha."

Joshua and Amelia

Joshuas instincts told him to look up just in time to see a massive beast dropping towards them. He quickly grabbed Amelia by her waist before jumping off the platform mear seconds before it was destroyed, taking Golem with it, though the elemental didnt go down without leaving a hole in the creatures chest and destroying it. Joshua didnt focus on that though and instead tried to find the closest place to set down. He quickly found it but at their current speed, landing there was suicide. Cursing, he drew his blade and shoved it into the wall,the adamantine blade going in without much effort and slowly slowing their fall.
"Better tuck in." He warned Amelia before attempting the jump while still several yards above their target. Sheathing his blade in the air, he managed to just barely makethe jump, rolling over his shoulder, depositing Amelia once they were safe, and then rolling some more. With a groan, he got to his feet and began testing his limbs. Nothing seemed broken, which he counteda s lucky. He glanced over at Amelia and saw that she was on her feet already." You okay?"

The young girl nodded.
"Im fine, thanks to you." She said, sounding a bit shaky." Do you think there will be more of those things?"

"Yeah. Cmon, lets get going. No point in sticking around."

With that both of them began moving down the hallway they were now in, alert for more surprises.



Sasha wasn't surprised when Lazarus managed to get through. It did surprise her that he seemed cross at her. Yes, this world was dangerous, but they could easily see this danger back home. What was the difference? "I know this world is dangerous, Lazarus. But if that stopped us, we would never get anything done" She said softly, feeling almost like a child being berated, or told off. It made her feel as if she couldn't do anything, and she didn't like it.

"I did what I thought I should do. I did what I thought was right. I'm not going to feel like I've done something wrong because of the fact that we could die" she said, taking a moment to look about, wary, knowing that this Titan could protect itself, from what t hey had seen so far. "Maybe this world is dangerous, because we rely on magic too make. maybe, we can learn something from this world. She sighed, and looked to Lazarus.



Jarvis, seeing that those he had teleported from the Titan were, at least for the time being, safe, he took out another Lacrima, knowing that they would be safe here. And wouldn't end up in Earthland.

He teleported back to the Titan, and looked about, seeing that Joshua and Amelia were gone from where he had left them. He had expected it, yet he still worried, as he began to search for them, hoping nothing too bad had happened.

Gentsai

"I'm sure that this your world or yours is just dangerous because you make it dangerous." Gentsai said as he walked around the corner and instantly closed the hole that they came from with a simple flick of a finger. "But I'm sure you people are already aware of this. I don't know what you do in your world, but I tried welcoming you and your friends on my vessal, but you only seem to seek it's destruction. You say us Edolasians cannot go to world because it will cause destruction for both worlds. Yet, you're here already trying to cause destruction when we seek a peaceful travel. But your earth lander with fire already told me how you all think."

He stepped back as thebeasts appeared again in the large room with four others beside it. On top of the one in the middle was Bryght who was standing and arms crossed. Behind them, Gentsai concentrated as he took control of the earth around him in the large room. Controlling everything from the floor, walls, and ceiling, ready for earth lander's next attack.

Bryght

"You all should just surrender already. This titan is just like us. If a virus enters a body, the immune system will try it's best to eradicate the threat and adapt in order to defeat it. And I'm sure you're aware who the viruses are." Jumping down from his mount and walked a bit closer as the beasts growled. "It doesn't matter what happens here. The anima will activate soon and we can go our separate ways."



The titan, still determined to remove its threat, grew a pack of about twenty wolves near Joshua and Amelia. Sending them to attack the two earth landers.

Joshua and Amelia

"Well... we seem to have shit luck now don't we?" Joshua said, watching the wolves as they came out of the titans walls. When one of them launched itself at him, Joshua quickly drew his blade, cutting the wolf down midleap. Turning around, he cut off the legs of a second one before decapitating a third. A fourth managed to pounce on him and forced him to use his blade to keep it from ripping out his throat. He saw several more coming at him when spikes suddenly erupted from the ground, impaling them all.

"GOLEM!" Amelia shouted happily as the earth elemental rose from the floo.

"How the hell did he survive!" Joshua shouted before golem grabbed the wolf on top of him and slammed it into the ground." Nevermind,I dont care how he survived."

Mayt growled slightly as he caught Bryght running off in the corner of his eye, and stumbled a littles as he finally pushed through Edo-Shutler. While he had been expecting it, it had come at an awkward time regardless. He half turned, trying to face his opponent before he was ground to a halt by his shadow grabbing him. Well, this is a new experience. He thought to himself as his mind quickly worked on what to do. "Reflect:Motion!" A magic circle appeared before Shutler, only to find him moving through it with no trouble, much to Mayt's dismay. Just before the first strike came, assuming it was for a non-lethal area, he tried again, hoping that the blade would have to become corporeal in order to strike him. Regardless of the outcome, his next move would be simple. "Change Spell: Amplify, Light!" The area around Mayt, within was was previously the equilizing field, suddenly turned into an almost complete sphere of light, apolishing his shadow and allowing him to move away from Shutler before letting it die down.

Sayuri

She swore as Bryght disappeared, "Really? Whatever I'll just help Mayt," spinning arond she saw him leaping back from a spere of light. She quickly gathered light around the blade of her sword and slashes sending a blade of light at Edo-Shutler. She runs over by Mayt, 'Well this is going to be rather difficult. Those blows took more magic than I was expecting...' she stops next to Mayt, "Hey, Looks like we're partners for this fight."



As Genstai appeared closing over the hole, Sasha shifted, bringing up her fists as if ready to fight. The last few months Sasha had been trying to learn how to fight, in order to not just rely on her magic. It wasn't working well. But these guys didn't have to know that.

"peaceful? Peaceful? It's not peaceful. You seek to knowingly invade our world. That's not peaceful. That's a step towards war. As long as I breath, I will fight" she said, anger in her voice, "we did not seek to be here. We just...did" and I'm still confused on just how "you don't belong in our world! All we want is our friend, and to be home. But if you insist on this, then I will fight"

a virsus? Would it work like a normal virus?

"ice make: ice floor!" ice began to form over all surfaces, and Sasha stood watching it.



Jarvis frowned, and after looking where he could, he decided that they must be in the titan itself. He sighed heavily, and took out a lacrima, throwing it against the Titan's leg, blowing a hole in it, he immediately began to
Climb.



Penny Attacked the Anima again, throwing two more fire balls seeking to damage it enough to prevent transfer, before following the noise, the sounds of fighting towards what she assumed was her guild members.

Gentsai

"We don't seek to 'invade' your world. All we wish is to just inhabit Earth Land, we do not seek to cause conflict, we only want find a place of our own there. But if a fight does arise, then we will fight for our new home. Your group is a example of one of those obstacles that we must overcome. A group that doesn't wish for change for others and only change if they see it fit. That is why I decided to leave this world with others of the same mind, because I cannot change or force everyone's mind to believe what I see is right." As Sasha froze the floor, Gentsai clapped his hands together, causing the ice floor to vibrate. It only took a few seconds for him to create bumps and spikes from the earth below to shatter the ice and absorb the pieces into the ground. "I don't know what you're trying to do, but the titan or I will extinquish any unnecessary things that you try to do."

After breaking most of the ice, he lauched the five beasts one by one on the two wizards.

Bryght

Bryght noticed Sasha's guild mark on her hand. Seeing it reminded him of the same mark Penny and Mayt. Just seeing those marks made him feel like he was forgetting something. But as he stop hesitating, he pulled his glaive from behind him and his armor on his arm fell off again as it instantly began to shine brightly again. He flew over, zig zagging above the group, using the beasts as distractions while he dealt with them from behind. He tried landing his blade on Lazarus to drain some magic from him so he doesn't damge the titan any further.

Edo Shutler

With the sphere of light pushed Edo Shutler back and realized he was caught off guard as Sayrui's blade of light striked him. He jumped away after that attack, but the wound from her sword could be seen, but it was quickly healed back as the shadows around him were being absorbed. He didn't really try to fight, his goal was to hold them off long enough for the anima to activate. As he stood there, away from the the two, he waited to see if he could anticipate their next move.



After the wolves failed against the earth landers, what remained from the wolves soon formed together to form two large beasts. One focused on Joshua and the other pursuing Amelia and her golem. Both moved with great speed and had the most agile jumps as they tried pouncing their foes, while also biting and clawing at them.

Lazarus

"I am not angry Sasha. I just think we need to be wary of the unknown for now." Just then. The man he has seen before at edo-Phoenix wing appeared. He listened angrily before pointing his fist at the man. "You.....!" He glared. "From my time posing as edo-Lazarus, I learned that you were his mentor. You came to phoenix wing to free sayuri, leaving him alone in the hands of Phoenix wing. Was I not posing as him, I dread to think what might have happened." He boomed now. The wooden creatures came from nowhere once more. "I'd be careful who you call a virus. Viruses really often kill their host, and quikly." He glared again. "Sasha you deal with these creatures. I have some heavenly justice to bring upon this man. A man who would leave a comrade behind." He took a step forward releasing some of his magic. He narrowed his eyes and formed the X with his hands. "Satans grip." His skin turned scaley and the infamous horns grew from his head. "I am sick of being unable to spread my wings. Us two are those of great power in Phoenix Wing. Not one member besides from her knows my true strength.... Let's see how you fare against me."

He was so angry and pumped. He yelled out for no apparent reason, swinging his arm out in front of him with great force. It was to stop a foe from attackin with great speed and probably to play a dirty trick. "With satans grip I call upon the magic from the devil himself. There is no end to it's amount and power." He said coldly looking at the new foe. "Both of you...." He stepped into a fighting stance. "Prepare yourself to be damned to hell!" He shouted that last part. "Frozen heart will send you there!" He nodded at Sasha who was dealing with the titan spawn.



"And by inhabiting our world, you are invading it! You will cause all sorts of trouble, and I won't let that happen. Earthland is my home. And I will defend it" Sasha said, as she watched the titan spawn.

She moved quickly, already forming the words "Ice Make: Bird Bombers! Ice make: Tiger Impact! Ice make: Hawk Arrow!" She created the attacks consecutively, attacking and hopefully destroying the spawn.

But she noticed the man, who seemed puzzled by her mark. and it was that that enable her to block his attack on Lazarus, as she spun about, an ice sword forming in her hands, to block the blade. It withheld the block.

There was something here. What was he missing? "Who are you?" She demanded, the ice sword disappearing. None of the blades, or other weapons ever lasted long when Sasha conjured them. It was like her magic was like, yep-oh wait, no. We don't use this. But they worked for a short time, and that was all Sasha needed. "And why did my mark give you hesitation?" She held up her right hand,, showing her Mark once more.



“Seriously, our luck is absolute shit.” Joshua muttered as the wolves reformed into some… other things. Seriously, he had no idea what the hell they were supposed to be. On top of that, they were faster. What was next, a small hedgehog that moves faster than the speed of sound? That was literally the only way this could get more annoying at this point.

Distracted by this thought’s the creature got in a free swipe at him, which Joshua only dodged in time to receive a three parallel cuts on his right cheek.
“I hate this place. It can burn in hell.” He muttered, before being forced to dodge another blow.” Amelia, get moving. I’ll handle things here.”

“But…” The young girl shouted as Golem got in a wrestling match with the beast attacking Amelia

“No buts! Get moving, find Jarvis or one of the others. Help them or get some information and help in some other way.” Joshua barked before destroying the beast he was fighting against. He then moved quickly and destroyed the other beast while Golem had it pinned to the ground.”Get her out of here now you hunk of rock.”

Golem let out a rumble before picking Amelia up and raising a slight platform, which shot away. Sighing, Joshua sheathed his blade while waiting for whatever other surprises awaited him. This was going to be a long day. At least he would be fighting it away.

This guy was seriously getting on Mayt’s nerves. Could he just stop being nigh-unhittable? They could beat him, sure. As Sayuri had proved by landing a blow. He glanced over at the swordswoman. ”Hey! I’m gonna go get my sword! This jackass tossed it down the stairs. If he’s somehow still standing, we’ll finish him off together, alright?” He didn’t wait for an answer as he started down the stairs, where he had seen his weapon thrown. He grimaced a little as he realized he might’ve sounded a bit condescending, he had meant it in a ‘you can do this’ way. He let his shape magic spell dissipate, his magic slowly returning to his aching body, only some of it due to Bryght and Shutler.

Sayuri

Sayuri smirks as Mayt runs off, "That sounds like a challenge," looking at Edo-Shuter she frowns and sighs, "For being the opposite of Shutler you have near identical taste in powers. Not that I'm complaining This'll make a good chance to find a way to fight him. Though you have the advantage here... I'm about 2/3 full on magic and you just need time. Well let's get started!" she dashes forward and slashes several times before spinning around the counter attack slashing his back with her blade covered in light.
