"We finally made it!!" "We would have gotten here sooner if we just took a train for once..." "YOU KNOW I HATE THOSE MOVING STEAM POWERED MONSTERS!" "You won't even hesitate to fight all of Fiore's wizards, but are terrified of a train." "Hey, shut up, I can't control my motion sickness, and we got here didn't we? Now where do you think the Guild is?" Raymond "Diamond Back" Grace stood on top of a hill just on the outskirts of the city. His emerald green eyes scanned the town with excitement and youth. A slight breeze moved the sash on his arm, and then he laughed and pointed at the large building shaped like a dragon skull. "There! That's gotta be it!" On Raymond's shoulder was a cat, except this one could walk, talk, and use magic to fly. He was Raymond's best friend. "Looks like a magic guild hall to me!" Roger said with a nod of agreement, jumping off Ray's shoulder. He glanced over at Ray and smiled. "Race ya to it." Raymond gave a devilish grin. ---- Roger flew quickly down the paved streets, angel wings on his back as he dodged civilians and their annoyed shouting, merchant stands, and carriages. As he flew through what looked like a merchant market, sniffed the air, and then suddenly stopped dead in his tracks. He looked over at a fruit stand, and his eyes went wide. Fluttering over to it, he pointed at a basket. "Are those fresh raspberries?" Roger asked, smacking his lips. "Why, yes they are! Just picked this morning by my wife! The whole bag is 10JW!" The merchant said with a smile. Roger eagerly reached inside his small vest pocket, searching for coins, but he stopped when he heard a sound that was similar to thunder. He looked in the direction, and his face turned to pure fear and panic. "WAAAAAAHHHH!" In a blink of an eye Roger was hit in mid air by something that was extremely fast. To passerby's, they only caught a glimpse of something that looked like a shiny wheel going at incredible speeds, but it was actually Raymond. He was a Diamond Dragon Slayer. One of his abilities was to curl up in a ball, and the outer edges of his skin turned to pure diamond, making him a ball of unstoppable force. He flew by people, ricocheted off of buildings, making sharp turns. Roger was stuck to the outer edge of Ray, still screaming. But their journey came to an abrupt halt as they hit the base of a stair case, sending them flying through the air. They came in contact with a heavy wooden door, but it burst open due to the force of impact. The two of them landed hard in the entrance of the building. Raymond sat up, his eyes swirling, his hands up in victory. "Did I win?!" He asked, a stupid grin on his face. "Roger?" Ray eventually asked. Roger was still on the ground, groaning and muttering something about cheating. Raymond's vision soon came to focus, and he took in the large hall that they burst in to. Dining tables were scattered everywhere, a billboard was near a wall, and a bar served breakfast food. Raymond's expert nose smelled coffee and waffles. He then saw the the banners that surrounded the place with a certain symbol on it. The Golden Dragoon's. Raymond suddenly understood where they were. He stood up, picking up Roger and grinning wildly, taking in the place. During their past days of travelling, Ray and Roger would imagine what this place would look like, and who they would find. Although it was a bit off from their imagination, it was still quite the sight. The two of them stood in the middle of the doorway, not noticing the looks they got from bursting the door open, or the people coming and going. This was awesome!!
