Gippal head moved back as she flicked something off his nose. A queer look came on his face as she did it, then not explaining why but answering his question. True it happened after Thane directed the Aeon to her... in all actuality Saina was right, they had no way of dealing with it...besides killing her. Luckily the move did manage to separate them, and she is safe now. She then continued to explain that Urick's Kindness helped her decision more. Glancing at Urick who looked at him he could see the big guy didn't know what he out of the ordinary towards her. Then like a bolt of lightning the words [i]"Not many hear my words in these lands I've traveled, but you have... and for that, I'm grateful."[/i] she was referring to when he was meditating earlier in the day, she must have thought he did that because of her advice. Despite the fact he always mediated in the morning. Before any of them could say anything a warrior monk interjected his thoughts before introducing himself and offering his services. Urick looked to the man and saw he was older, that he carried himself well. He also noticed his reaction at seeing Saina, though the man named Maximus said nothing, it looked like he saw a Ghost. Gippal stood up, along with Urick who in turned offered a hand to Saina, bending over because of his height. Gippal spoke then to Maximus. "Thane has been chasing after us for two years, if you feel you want to kill him, please feel free to come along...no doubt he will show up again since he is chasing Eva. As long as we are with her you will find him." Looking back to Saina who would be standing now he said, "I don't know how we are going to explain this to Alex and Nai. I Personally don't appreciate your callous attack on my friend. Even if it was to protect Eva." He scratched the back of his head and sighed. Though she did hurt Nai...she did defuse a bad situation quickly... if by making it worse in the process. How else would they have saved Nai, and knowing her she would have wanted Alex to kill her to stop her. He looked to Urick and spun the knife into his hand and wiped the blood off with his clothes. They were tattered and barely hanging onto him as they were. Besides I doubt they would be playing another game anytime soon after this horrible day. Spinning the knife inbetween his fingers till the blades tip was just barely between his forefinger and middle finger he handed it to Urick, who took it and replaced it in his sheath in his right gauntlet. He then said, "I'm going to get some stuff. Urick can you grab Nai's chair? Then take everyone to the house right next to the gate on the south side? That's where Alex, Nai and Eva are. Ill catch up. Oh and be careful. You did tell Alex to shut up..." He shook his head with a smile. Of course he knew Alex took it the wrong way, but giving urick the chance to explain himself to her...well they all knew that wouldn't happen. He then turn and ran to the locker rooms. Quickly changing into his normal gear. He then went over to Alex's locker and grabbed her cloths and threw them in the bag. Then taking the sword he slung it over his shoulder, and the bag of clothes. He made his way up through the VIP Box, Nai's chair was already gone. He did look at all the bodies lined up after someone took the time to find out who they where and covered them with a sheet. Closing his eyes he walked away. All because he thought Thane had given up. Idiot. Why did he ever return here. He knew this would happen. He quietly made his way back to the hut where everyone was, after stopping for a moment he saw's Nai's staff. He picked it up decided to run again to catch up with the group. --------- Urick had been silent as they made their way to the hut, carrying the chair with one hand over his shoulder. Once they reached the place he set the chair down and noticed a man wearing scraps of metal for a homemade armor sitting against the wall. While few people were walking in and out of the building, one of which was the ronso he saw running off with Eva. This had to be the place. He walked in, pushing the chair as he did. He then walked into a man who seemed to be in charge of the home. "I...Uh.." Urick blushed as he rubbed the back of his head. "Looking for... a really tall red head..." He used his hand to show the height of the woman. At which the man nodded, "She's in there with the other two woman. Good luck going in she barricaded the door. He nodded his Thanks and moved to the door. He looked to Saina who was with him and Maximus. He raised his hand to show them to hold on. Perhaps it wasn't the best idea for them to walk in. Before he could Gippal had stopped, reaching the place as they were asking about Alex. He noticed the man who had tried to steal the Machine earlier was sitting down looking slightly pathetic. Well serves him right, he should be glad Alex didn't try and kill him. He would have too if Nai died because of his interruption. He saw Urick about to knock on the door with Saina and Maximus standing there. He moved over to the group and said, "I know Eva's in there... but just give us a few minutes? To try and cool Alex off?" looking to Saina. Despite her answer he would knock on the door.
