[color=f7976a]"Does everyone have a communication Lacrima?"[/color] Penny asked, as she turned to the others. Damian immediately shook his head.

[color=FireBrick]"We don't split up, we don't ignore the others. We need to talk with each other, cover each other, and most importantly, stick together."[/color] He made a point to indicate Frenzy Plant with his head. [color=FireBrick]"This event caters directly to Frenzy Plant's strengths. And I've been watching all of you in your matches and I have a decent idea of your strengths and weaknesses. Josh, you're a swordsman, straight up. You can change your swords to match the occasion and that will give you an edge because they can't predict your next blade."[/color]

He turned to Nolan next. [color=FireBrick]"Nolan, we may not always see eye to eye, but it's time you acknowledged something I think you already know. Your power lacks focus. Your strongest moves always hit their hardest when you're in a time of emotional duress, typically when you're really angry. You shouldn't rely so strongly on those emotions to bring your everything to bear otherwise any match up against any mage could end just like your fight with Indigo or your fight with Xyster and Zander. When you use a hidden art, don't treat it like it needs to cause damage in a swath unless it's meant to. If it's meant to cause damage against a single opponent,"[/color] Damian tosses up a stone and draws the cutlass at his hip, slicing through it quickly and letting the two halves hit the ground, [color=FireBrick]"then turn it's power against that individual opponent. Make of it what you will, but don't take it as me making a personal attack. Because I'm here to win as much as you."[/color]

He turned to Trinity and Penny. [color=FireBrick]"Energy Make and Fire Manipulation and Phoenix Slayer magic. Trinity, I can't say much other than you seem to have some solid defensive moves. Penny, you're stronger offensively than anyone will expect not to mention you can fly, so that aerial advantage is important."[/color] He sighed, running a practiced eye over his team mates. [color=FireBrick]"We need to cover each others weakness, bolster each others strengths, the whole nine yards. But most importantly, we need to split up Frenzy Plant. Agreed?"[/color]

Jane had had a slow starting morning, between her jolt awake from a nightmare with that dark guild's leader in it to the lack of coffee waiting for her in her room, when she managed to make her way downstairs, she was partly caught off guard Isabella's hello. [color=DeepPink]"Oh, morning Isabella. Yeah, should be a crazy day. There any coffee made?"[/color]

Jake shook his head. [color=SaddleBrown]"I'm not sure anyone going alone is a good idea. We all know Frenzy Plant's reputation. The moment they see someone go off alone, they'll hunt them down."[/color] Ammy already had her scythes drawn and was looking around at the other teams.

[color=Cyan]"Perhaps baiting them would be a better move. Let them think one of us has gone off alone, perhaps Jackie since she has the most experience being solo?"[/color] Hunter nods in agreement.

[color=DarkGreen]"It'd be just like Jornum Valley, only instead of Vulcans, we're ambushing another guild."[/color] A sharp look from Jake made Hunter shrug. [color=DarkGreen]"An ambush is an ambush, no point in calling it anything else."[/color] With a sigh, Jake turned to Jackie and Zephyr, looking at them.

[color=SaddleBrown]"Any objections? Ammy can cloak us with one of her spells."[/color]
