Kenji looked at his stock one last time making sure he had enough stock for the bread thief to come in but was interrupted when a woman came into his shop saying she came for the request and Kenji quickly introduced himself "here for the request you say? you happen to arrive at the right time..." he grabbed a chair and sat down ad quickly introduced himself "this is around the time the bread thief comes in and steals the bread but i want you to tell you something peculiar about this bread thief." Kenji quickly picks up a stack of notes from under the counter"every time he comes around he drops a piece of paper" he gave the last notes on the stack and gave to her each note having a date and week every note having raising in price the top of the note having big letters saying what i owe Kenji-san "this is quite strange for a common bread thief to do isnt it?"

Zander

"Idiot, you think if they could take it down by using brute force they would have asked a stronger more well known guild to help them. Leave the beast be. Right now we have to get the villagers to safety and make sure the twins stay safe." He said sounding slightly irritated. Now they may have no choice but the fight the beast off since Valak had succeeded in making it angry. He used his takeover magic, transforming into his "demon necromancer" form. He summoned two hound out of the ground and prepared to defend the villagers. "Unfortunately we will have to at least try to subdue the thing since you managed to make it mad. Nice job." It was clear the normally happy male was slightly irritated by Valak's actions but it had happened so he had to do something. There was no point getting angry over something that already happened.

Layla

Layla listen to the shop keeper speak. She looked at the notes. "It would seem they intend to pay you back. It's likly they fell into hard times and they can get a job or happen to be in a bad situation and can't make the money to pay for the bread right off." She thought for a moment. "Is there anything else you can tell me about the thief. If they normally come in around this time then you surly have seen them at least a few times. Maybe even chased them down once or twice. Anything would help in identifying them when they enter." The paused to think again. "It would look strange if I was browsing the breads for a long time do you have a work uniform I could use so it looks like I am a new worker or something. I promise I will return it when I catch the thief." She said. She quickly observed the layout of the shop memorizing it as she looked. She wanted to be able to cut the culprit off as quickly as possible should she see them in the shop. She would prefer not to have to chase them down the streets of the city.

Lance walked towards the usual bakery with his makeshift smoke bombs "this is a long walk but hey if i wanna live and feed my group i gotta... man... these street fights don't pay me very well" he looked at his pouch "that's not even enough to pay for a week" he thought to himself and for once he felt like its about time to reveal himself to his old friend "i think... it might be time to reveal myself to him" he arrived at the bakery and ran in... throwing his smoke bomb in as usual but this time around... he didnt steal anything and stood still waiting for the smoke to clear up finally showing his face to his old friend... "y-yo... i-its been a long time hasnt it..." he quickly realised someone else was there...

Kenji shook his head "sadly i'm the only employee here" he sighed "i had help from a noble family's 2 sons but 6 years ago... that family's home was raided and nobody was spared... but... there was one survivor... his name is lance exactly 6 years from now was the last time i saw him" he stopped as he saw the usual smoke bomb come in "he's here..." he started to cough but didnt hear anything get picked up... nor did he hear anyone run away... "are you serious..." he said to the bread thief "Y-yo... i-it's been a long time hasn't it..." he saw a bruised and wounded young man wearing a familiar nobles coat "a guild request huh... well after 6 years it only makes sense" he looked at the woman standing at the counter "well you caught me... take me away i take all the guilt i have lost everything after all... take care of the kids for me Kenji-san they live in the alley up ahead" he took out a pouch of jewels and put it on the counter "this is all i could gather over the period of 6 years... i guess i cared more about keeping my group alive than paying you back... sorry kenji-san i was the one who kept stealing your goods" he walked towards the woman "what are you going to do...?" he looked at her clutching his sword and took out an old burned photo waiting for an answer

Kenji finally had a chance to talk back to Lance and walked up to him and put his hand on his shoulder "its alright... you never had to pay me if i knew who you were... even the first 2 times you came here you didnt need to pay..." Kenji sighed at Lance "the one thing i am mad about is the fact you lied to me about being dead if you didnt show up again"

Melvus

Out of… well, the ocean arose a huge beast, Melvus wasn’t sure what to think of it save how large it was. It began to glow, he didn’t really hear what the old man had been saying about it, he was too focused on what he had been reading earlier. But now, he didn’t really have a choice but to pay attention, the beast was hit with a bolt of magic, it seemed. Melvus realized that it was from the requip wizard in the party.

“Idiot! You think that they could take it down by using brute force? They would have asked a stronger, more well known, guild to help them. Leave the beast be. Right now, we have to get the villag…” Melvus stopped paying attention, the beast was charging up it’s attack again. The others were preparing to defend the villagers. Melvus had to do something too.

“Dark Ecriture! Wings!” He had taken out his magic quill and wrote the enchantment on himself. He took to the air and flew in-front of the beast. He was only about twenty feet closer to it than the rest were. From it’s mouth came a large blast of energy. “Dark Ecriture! Reflect!” Most of the energy was reflected, but some ambient energies made their way past Melvus as he fell to the ground. That was way too fast… I’m really tired now. I don’t think I’m out of power.. but that took a lot…I only hope that they can stop the rest…

Lucas

“Melvus!” Lucas reached into the deep pockets of his coat. “Open! Gate of the Clock, Horologium!” Around Melvus, materialized the spirit of the clock, he was safe. But now Lucas could only summon one spirit until Horologium went away. He reached back into his pocket. “Open! Gate of the Two Fish! Pisces!” A golden magic circle appeared in front of him as he cut the golden key through the air. From it emerged two huge serpents, they were flying. One of the two was black and the other white and their tails were tied together. “Go Pisces!” Lucas pointed at the large, black, monster which threatened the town. The Two Fish flew toward the monster in their attempt to stop it, or repel it.

Cinia and Linia turned to the Villagers and urged them to run into the under ground caverns that were near by. "Don't try to fight it! Just run!" Linia yelled to them as she helped to move the villagers into the underground Caverns. The only issue with the Caverns though were that they couldn't stay under there for long, as the cavern's would flood once the tide began to rise.

Bantaru let out another cry, it shot a beam of energy into the ground, however this time it created a sort of field around it. It was an anti-magic feild meaning no magic would work in close range of it. Long range attacks would also dissipate within the field and do nothing to him. Bantaru turned around whipping his tail around to attack any on the ground who were in close range of him. He was truly a fearsome creature as well as smart.

Layla

She frowned, so that was a no on the extra uniform. She crinkled her nose thinking of another way to hide herself but still be near the shop. As she spoke a smoke bomb when off in the store. Guess it's showtime. She didn't wait for the smoke to clear instead she moved around where the thief would likely be and waited, however she heard no sounds of boots shuffling or things being taken so she waited and moved around slightly.

When the smoke cleared she was standing in front of the door. She noticed an extra person in the store. It would seem this was the thief and also a friend of the shop keeper. More specifically someone who he had just been speaking to her about. She examined the male for a moment before I small bit of sympathy washed over her, as much as she was capable of anyway. She had been in the male's situation, no family, on the streets. Though it looked like he took part in the street fighting that this city's underground was in control of. There had been a time where she had fought but it was a short time as its didn't pay enough to survive. She found she got pairs more by doing odd jobs around the city than when fighting. The male turned to her with his sword clutched in his hand. Instinctively he hand moved to the sword that was strapped to her hip. He spoke and Layla sighed. "Cut the theatrics. I am only goon to take you away if the man who employed me to stop you asks me to, though it is clear to me he does not intend that I take you in." She spoke in almost a bored manor. "It would seem you need better work though. If you have any aptitude in Magic the Golden Dragoon guild that opened a couple months ago is accepting new members." She stated in an attempt to help the guy out. "If not, a work of advice, doing odd jobs around the city pays more than the fights, you might get lucky and someone will be nice enough to give you room and board in exchange for your labor." She them directed her words toward the shop keeper. "I did nothing, so I do not expect any of the reward. Should you find you need the guild's services again we will gladly take your request." She removed her hand from her rapier and turned to leave. Before leaving she spoke over her shoulder. "If you wish the join the guild it would be easier if you came with me." She said, this was, of course directed toward Lance. Afterward she opened the door and began to walk back to the guild.

Zander

Zander sighed, the villagers were priority as well as the twins. He turned and pointed to the twins. "You two! Meet Cerberus and Hades, my hell hounds, stay with one of them at all times they are pretty effective when it comes to keeping people safe, no they won't attack you as long as I am in this form." He gave the hounds his command and they growled, clearly displeased with the order but they would follow it nonetheless. "Let's head to that temple to summon that other monster, we will do more harm than good here." He said to the others. He wasn't trying to take the lead simply trying to get them to work as a somewhat functional team.

Hiryu spent an abnormally long amount of time in the shower. His fingertips and toes had long since pruned over. It was a deliberately dawdle. Hiryu was aware of the woman waiting for him the moment he resurfaced out in the guild lobby. He presumed that by sitting in the shower for long enough with all the commotion and people, Feon would one way or another get swept up into something else and Hiryu would be able to avoid her for another day. Unfortunately for him, when Hiryu stepped back into the outside world, while there was considerable less bodies in the guild, Feon was still there amongst the numbers, assisting someone who apparently fainted. Hiryu dipped his head slightly and sighed, which in itself teased up a cold sneeze, a result of his extended stay in the shower.

Hiryu tried to slink on by Feon as best he could, pick up the mission slip and just go while she was playing good samaritan.

"if i do come to the guild... can i bring the group i take care of? their all orphans... their all skilled in magic..." he spoke to the woman curious, "six years ago huh... i still remember my brother's scream" he took a look at his sword with the name "Damain" carved on the blade "one week after our birthday... is when this all happened..." he took out the old photo again and showed to the woman "i don't know if this is me or my brother" the photo shows a young boy with 2 blue eyes and part of a face with a red eye color "i think im the one on the burned side..." he points at his right eye being red "well if i am able to bring my group along... i'll consider it" he walked towards the alleyway he pointed at before "come with me i'll take you to them... their all skilled in magic... no before you ask... i didn't teach them anything... they lost their parents just like me" he grabbed the woman's hand and started to run when he noticed a young child get knocked out of the alley "Nick!? Sorry but we gotta hurry i think i know what is happening... the kids are in danger..." he said to the woman thinking she can help "Damn it these bastards they know my schedule and now their attacking my kin because i beat them way too many times..."

Layla sighed, she hated being drug places by strange people but she wasn't going to get upset by it. She also had little interest in his back story but would listen should he decide to say more. She wasn't rude to people she just had a general air of lack of emotion sometimes. As she followed the male who had been going on about the kids he took care of one said kid came running toward them, just as she was about to explain that the guild wasn't an orphanage and she had no control over who joined. That was the guild master's job. The male quickly explained that he thought he knew what was wrong and that the children were in danger. She really wanted to get back to the guild and find another job so that she could actually make sum money, but instead she decided to follow him to see what was going on.
