Measha looked around the guild hall for a moment, at first glance it appeared to look like a normal tavern. There was a bar with a number of patrons talking amongst themselves. Had he walked into the wrong building? He explored for a moment, and spotted a job board. Sadly, it seemed any jobs available were already taken, except for what appeared to be an S-Class mission. His heart was burning and his entire body was ready to get started, but this was his first day here. He couldn't possibly handle the likes of an S-Class mission, plus the fact he wasn't even a member at the moment. Was everyone off at some initiation ceremony? Was he too late? A wave of sadness and disappointment overcame him, but he refused to give up.

He decided to look about for the Guildmaster, but didn't want to walk around the building aimlessly, doing so would get him nowhere, and would be disrespectful to the guild in his eyes. At the bar, a lady was serving food and drinks to the patrons, and appeared to be in charge for the time being, Measha was too excited and in a rush to get started he had yet to consider that she could in fact be the Guildmaster, he walked up to the bar and locked eyes with the girl, "Excuse me miss, my name is Measha Kenomoeru, I have traveled far and wide, carrying the pride and honor of my family, and now I am here to join the Azure Dragon! I would very much appreciate it if you could direct me to the Guildmaster, as I am eager to prove my power and worth so I may begin my first mission, I apologize if I have interrupted your work, and will assist you if need be after I complete my mission." Measha spoke loud and proudly, standing up straight in a uniform like fashion, he awaited the girls response.

Kaldis had a terrible feeling rising in his stomach when he could smell the remnants of some man-made fire, and when he saw the massive pile of people just lying unconscious in the street...Seemed like somebody had gone and done their job for them. While he was relieved to know that they wouldn't have to fight a crime ring, the destruction before the party left him uneasy, whoever had done this didn't even care for the damage they'd done, he remembered passing a lot of these houses on his first trip into town...they'd look so beautiful before, but now they looked as if they were ready to be torn down.

When the old man had told them to leave, the sinking feeling nearly tore through his stomach as he sat on the wagon...It seemed like somebody, or many somebodies under the "Azure Dragon" moniker had already done the job...if you could call nearly ruining an entire town "doing the job". Kaldis wondered just who could have done this...all of the guild members he'd known were there that morning, and he hadn't seen anyone on the road to the town...Something itched at the back of his mind what could be wrong with how setup this felt, but his thoughts grew much more violent when he saw the tears welling up in Sophia's eyes. It had been a while that he'd felt angry at all...but he did his damn best to try and hide it, although if you looked at his antlers, you could see the small, neatly shaven nubs on the ivory protrusions begin to twist and sharpen slightly, beginning to resemble actual antlers, stopping at a point where it would be barely noticeable. He'd had enough of this, they'd been called barbarians and thieves...it was clear they weren't wanted here anyways.

Before he could begin walking back toward the wagon, the sound of a loud clapping rang through the street, the woman clapping said that she was "applauding their cowardliness" before a man, nearly as intimidating as Orin said something...Kaldis couldn't hear most of what they said, only catching bits and pieces that were meaningless out of context. As they began walking away, the woman clapped, and as if they'd just been pretending the entire time, the slumped, unconscious figures in the street stirred and rose to their feet, as if they hadn't been beaten beforehand. Kaldis instinctively clutched his hands in the same position as usual, and when the mobsters opened fire on them, he quickly dove to the ground, before constructing a fairly sizable wall, at least 2 ft thick, 7 feet wide, and 10 feet tall in front of him. Slumping his back up against the wall quickly, he flung off the simple cloth over-coat he'd had on and placed both his hands above it, as he used his wood-make magic to make dozens of small, jack-like wooden spikes that while small, were sharpened to a point.

Turning to Orin quickly, with a bit more confidence in his voice than usual, he shouted out: "Orin, use this if you need it! I'm gonna try something..." before tossing a simple, yet very thick wooden tower shield that would hopefully give him or someone He wrapped the cloth around the spikes and tied the limbs of the coat as well as the neck-hole as his hands shook violently...he was going to take on mobsters with guns with a bag of wooden caltropes...he must have been out of his mind. He must have been, because he almost immediately formed a stick to attach the make-shift bag to, and used it to chuck the bag over the crowd of mobsters...if they shot it, the spikes would scatter all around them, even if they were just wooden, if they stepped with enough force, the spikes would penetrate their shoes. And if they didn't, Kaldis wouldn't have to buy a new over-coat. Deciding that just sitting there unarmed would be suicide if one of the mages could sneak around him, he formed a sizable bo-staff from his hands and placed his back firmly against the wall he'd made.

(Well im tired of waiting)
The blast shot past Orion narrowly missing him. He slid himself to a halt, leveling his crossbow and firing at Kyojin. The man dodged the arrow but Orion noticed that he didn’t shoot back right away. he assumed there was a recharge time associated with the mans cross bow. So Orion fired off a couple more shots as he ran toward the man. A couple shots in he turned and pinned another bandit to the tree. Pesky men getting in his way. Chances were it was extremely foolish what orion was about to try and attempt but there weren’t many options at this point. The volley of arrows he shot at Kyojin prohibited him from taking another shot with that death crossbow of doom. At least that was what it seemed until he actually shot it.
Orion dove to the right as it flew in his direction. The blast wasn’t aimed directly at him but in his direction so when it hit the ground and exploded Orion went flying. Boy was he pissed. As soon as he landed he ditched the crossbow and summoned three “imagine Cannons.” Another simple yet destructive creation. The part that holds it to the ground, the barrel and of course the cannon ball. The gunpowder would just be his own energy, propelling the cannonball. Kyojin clearly wasn’t expecting such a dramatic retaliation. The first shot was aimed directly at him. He avoided it but the impact destabilized the magic used to create the ball, so it exploded. The next two shots were aimed at the bandits. Laying them out of Orions way so he could get to Kyojin.

“imagine wheel” Orion summoned a wheel that he rode inside of toward Kyojin at a high speed running the man over before stopping. “imagine: Pillory” a pillory manifested around kyojin before he had a chance to recover and Orion snatched the crossbow out of his hand, Slinging it over his shoulder before making his own crossbow again leveling at the mans head. He was out of breath but adrenalin kept hm from collapsing “you’re going to tell me whats going on here, and you’re going to tell me now” he moved his crossbow and shot an arrow into the mans leg before brining it back to his head.

Beatrix put the smoking pipe into her mouth as she watched people try out samples of her work, however her peace was soon interrupted by Measha rushing up to the front, asking about where he may find the guild master. With a deep breath she leaned onto the counter and blow a bellow of magical smoke at him, which got tougher and tougher until it was like trying to move in thick spiders webs. "I am the guild master here Measha. Beatrix Fairglaive. I also run the bar and magical shop here" The smoke did not last long at all. More a magical novelty than anything else. "Anyway, what makes you want to join this place? IF you have pride and all." She smirked and continued to have a smoke while listening to his answer.

The bandits were being beaten back by the small group, even so Kyojin was being stun locked by the boy mage and his rather powerful magic. He got off a few shots but when Orion reached him and pulled out his weapon from him, Kyojin panicked and fell backwards onto the ground cover his face, the impact of his fall causing the mask to fall from him and bounce along the ground. showing the mask to be nothing more than painted wood. "I-I don't know! We just got reports of some old guy beating up our boyz!" This man was not Kyojin it seemed, for one his mask fell off and his inablity to fight was another. This man was no where near the level to fight on the same level as a Saint.

---

Orin grabbed onto his sister and tossed her across the street to land in a stall for selling carpets. The girl was still stunned by the words of the very people they had come to help, which was no surprise... Raising his hand Orin caught the tower shield that was thrown to him before slamming one end into the ground for cover before saying "Chain armor!" Chains burst from his shackles and formed around the shield, keeping it against his arm as he took the brunt of the shots.

When the make shift bag was thrown over the enemy it was blasted out of the sky out of fear it was a bomb, however as it turned out it was a trap! Kaldis' plan worked and it rained down wooden caltropes onto the enemy, but due to them standing still they did not get too harms... That was until "CHAIN SURPRISE!" Slamming one hand into the ground chains burst from the ground, slamming into several mobsters and sending them onto the ground, and in turn the caltropes, causing them to yelp out in comical pain! Creating a sort of bridge with some of the chains, Orin looked over to Kaldis. "I will take care of these. You need to go and take out their boss!"

Orion gritted his teeth in frustration. It was all a set up. it made no sense but it had to have been a set up. "you cant honestly expect me to believe you thought we were an old man." Orion panted, struggling to stay on his feet. His magic was beginning to fade so he let everything fade away to reserve his energy. IF nothing else he still had the mans crossbow. He might not be able to fire it but he can hit him with it. Best believe he was keeping it too. "listen and listen good, you picked the wrong guild to mess with and i dont care why. We are Azure Dragon and we don't take kindly to being attacked" even though attacking the bandits was their mission. "if I ever hear you and your band are bothering these roads again we will come for you. and you will know first hand what its like to be on the receiving end of this crossbow. You feel me?"

Measha kept his posture with difficulty as the smoke was blown into his face. He couldn't his surprised expression when Beatrix revealed herself to be the Guildmaster, he felt a wave of embarrassment overcome him, but there was a quick lesson to be learned from this. Think before you act. It sounded like it would come in handy here. . When Beatrix inquired as to Measha's intentions with the guild, he looked her straight in the eyes and spoke with a serious and sincere tone. "By joining this guild I have the chance to improve myself and my abilities, and use this experience to help the people I care for, and those who need it. I have the chance to do good in this world and honor the name and traditions of the Kenomoeru. This isn't just a reason to join the Azure Dragon, this is the reason I live."

Measha's heart was burning once more. He realized the tone he was speaking in and how dramatic it seemed, and couldn't help but snap from his serious attitude, "And it really looks like a lot of fun." he said whilst chuckling. He seemed more laid back now, and looked to Beatrix, eager to hear her response. He wouldn't take no for an answer. He couldn't.

Kaldis felt like his heart was going to explode out of his chest, he hadn't really expected his caltrope plan to work at all, but it looked like Orin was MAKING it work. Not only that, but Orin told him to head after their leader, which really wasn't helping the sinking feeling in his stomach. In fact, that feeling might as well have been a gaping hole in his stomach, that man in the suit was absolutely huge, he looked like he could snap his neck like a twig; and that woman...something was off about her. None of this, none of this at ALL sat well with him, he didn't think he could take on either of those two, let alone BOTH at the same time. For all he knew, those two were as strong as Orin, he wouldn't stand a chance alone. He felt his back start to sink against the wall as he struggled to stay on his legs. His knees were shaking, at this point he'd dropped the bow staff to press against the wall with his hands, even his hands were trembling. "I-I need to run...I need to get out of here, if I don't, I-...What? What's going to happen? I'll...die? ...No. Orin's not telling me to go because he can't do it himself."

Kaldis finally straightened up as his trembling stopped, he he banged his right fist against the wall as he regained his focus as well, stooping low to pick up the bow-staff, he had an idea. Clasping his hands together once more, he formed a simple, completely unimpressive flat plank of wood that was pretty dang big, large enough to fit his entire body on, but there was one thing he added to the plank. Wheels. 8 shoddy, yet still smoothed and rounded wheels laid around the edges of the board, connected to 4 axles, and with his new plank, he sprinted as fast as he possible could over to Orin's chain bridge and flung the board onto the bridge and jumped onto it, pushing along with his hands as quickly as he could, the bow staff had been flung away, and had managed to hit one of the mobsters in the back of the head. The ride was extremely bumpy and rough from the chain's rungs, but he pushed on regardless, if he was standing he knew he'd already have fallen. "He told me to do this because he knows I can...I hope."

The bandit nodded his head in agreement with the rather frightful mage "Y-You got it buddy, we wont be around anymore." With that he started to scramble to his feet and started to back up away from him. "Not with whackos like you and that old guy around." With that the bandit and his gang ran off to pack up their camp. A clean get away sure but he could not have been expected to arrest all of them alone.

The driver of the wagon stepped out, having come too from his rather daze filled sleep. "Uhhh... Good job dealing with those guys kid." Seemed like he had been awake for a while, so he overheard a rather good amount of the talk. "So... That old guy wasn't with you eh? He said he was, and had your mark but I guess you did do the job.. Uhh, would ya mind waiting for the payment? Kind of need it for getting another wagon out here."

---

Beatrix yawned and looked rather bored while he listed off what sounded like something someone would say at a job interview, typical really. However when he stated he was also in it for the fun, a truly honest answer, "Ah I see, for the fun huh?" That was the only thing she picked out of the entire thing. "Well then... Where do you want your guild seal?" IT was enough through. do-gooders were never her thing, not that she was a bad person but they never seemed real. She was after humans in this place, not angels.

---

Before Kaldis could make it across the chain the two big mob players had already vanished, however there was one mob boss still ordering his men around from the back lines. In his hand a magical shotgun that he was firing ineffectively at Orin. IT was safe to assume that this guy was the boss of the gang that had taken over this entire town at one point and was the one Orin intended to take out. After all punks like this wouldn't fight without a leader. Looking at the skateboarding mage the boss was more than a little shocked. "What the?!" HE raised his gun to trie and blast him off his board, but in his panic he was firing wildly.

Orion shrugged at the driver "thas fine by me just put it in writing, in the mean time what can you tell me about that old guy?" Orion was tired but needed all the information he could get about the old man. He wasnt in any condition himself to go after him but thats what guilds were for anyway. joining meant he wouldnt be alone and that he could call on them for help and they would answer

"Ah I see, for the fun huh?"

Measha was taken aback at the Guildmaster's response, he thought it was clear his intentions were not simply to have fun, and it made him quite upset, but as she inquired as to where he would like to place his guild seal, it was safe to assume she had accepted him. He questioned Beatrix's morals, and whether or not the Guild's members were no different than your common mercenaries, but it was wrong to make such a judgement now before even meeting any of them, and Measha wasn't here to impress the Guildmaster, he was here because it was his responsibility. He didn't agree with Beatrix's attitude, but he would respect her. "Here, please." Measha said with a smile as he extended his arm towards her, pointing at a spot on his right forearm.

Hector slowly made his way into town, letting a sigh out as he did. It had been a long time for him since he was here last. its been about a year since he even been here... or talked to Beatrix for that matter. He was surprised that he heard she was starting a guild now a few months ago, although it seemed to fit her personality she always was a motherly type and being a guild master would only make that stronger for those under her care.

He was distracted for a moment when he heard a groan from the man he was carrying from his belt in his left hand. Hector almost forgot about the man, who was an average size of a man but compared to Hector, he looked tiny. Hector was 5'10'' and was built like a bear. from all the hard training and rough jobs he took in the last 20 years.

"L-l-l-look man just let me go please? i cant go back to prison. ill pay you!" the scrawny man begged. At which Hector shook his head with out looking down at the man, who then started to struggle at which Hector gave a swift kick to the head and knocked him out with out losing a stride.

It was not long before he came to the bounty office and dropped the man on the ground like a sack of potatoes. the clerk looked at the man to see who it was and was wide eyed taking a few steps back looking at Hector and the man multiple times in shock. "You captured this man by yourself?"

Hector replied, "Yeah..." simply as the man expected more. "But..."the man though for a moment he was going to explain that this man murdered many people including the ten prison guards that tried to stop him. but one look at Hector made him remember of course there were more powerful wizards out there why question it? It wasn't that though that made him shut up, it was the fact that he recognized the Frozen Fang finally. At which he quickly gave him the reward money of 100,000 Jewels, At which Hector turned around and left with out a word.

After he exited the office he looked around the town for a bit. He was now ready to see Beatrix, but where was her new guild at? He then heard a few people talking about the Azure Dragon, obviously they were talking about how weak it was compared to some other guild. And that they don't have any strong wizards over there. which he doubted, Beatrix always happened upon strong Wizards...as if she attracted them, course beginning out though it was normal for a guild this new to be weak and unpopular because it had no known Wizards, and despite how powerful Beatrix was no one would guess it over her dainty looks.

Moving over to the two speaking he asked, "Where can I find the Azure Dragon guild hall?" The two men looked a him and wide eyed said, "Down that street and turn left at the 3rd intersection. You cant Miss it. " He nodded and turned to leave only to hear them whisper, "Thats Hector the Frozen Fang! Is he going to Join that Guild?""If he is Forget what I said about it..."

It only took him a few minutes to find himself in front of the guild hall. He smirked as he move to enter the hall. As he entered he stoppped in the door way to look around, It was a simple hall but it wsa cozy, despitw the sound of hammers and saws at the moment. His cloak blew to the side as the wind from outside caught it, He could see a people staring at him as he blocked the sunlight from the door which only darkened his figure,

He finally caught sight of Beatrix, and she looked exactly as beautiful as the first time they met. He made his way over to her slowly, people moved to clear hiss path when they saw him. until he came to a stop in front of the woman. he towered over her, their eyes met and he smiled "Lovely as ever Beatrix. Its been a while. You still raising that Kid Orin?"

She rather roughly stamped Measha's arm, the seal appearing onto his skin and showing his allegiance with the guild. "Well, you may have to wait for the others to get back. They basically took all the jobs, but I do have some..." The guild master stopped for a moment as she noticed something moving across the crowd.

Beatrix slowly raised her head as she noticed the large man moving over towards her, and when she noticed it was Hector a small smile crossed her face before she leaned back down. "Ent you lovely. Also sure, the kid is as big, if not bigger than you by now. Seems like I know how to raise real men eh? I saw to you growing up too." She smirked.
-
He always loved her smile. When she commented back he smiled even more and let a Chuckle out. A rare thing for him. "Yeah I know. You teach us right. Though that was a long time ago. " he leaned on the table between them and said "nice place you got here. Any room for an old man like me?"
-
"Hah. Well, we are looking for members right now, heck even this kid at the bar just joined... Are you sure you can keep up with them?" She said, trying to pretend like she was not paying attention. "Are you sure your little dragon lady wont get jalous you are hanging out with a old lady like me?"
-
He glanced at the kid she mentioned and smirked.. "Obviously you jest Beatrix ... This pup can't keep up with me if he tried . I may be old but I'm not decrepid!" He stood up straight and folded his arms at her next comment . " No if she was she would have already eaten you in the last twenty years. He raised his eyebrow and asked. "I'm perfect for this guild... I would say I'm honored." He smiled as he puffed up his chest. " if I didn't know better I would say you named this guild after me. I always knew I was your favorite" he winked and chuckled at it. He knew it was probably by some other reason the guild was named Azure dragon
-
"Don't be cocky. I named it after your mother." She mentioned offhandedly, as if knowing a dragon was no big deal to her, more so the legends that they were now surrounded in. "Besides she is too much of a shy'n to even try and nibble at me let alone eat me hahah."

As a tall, built and seemingly experienced man entered the Guild and greeted Beatrix, Measha stood idly by, allowing the two to catch up as they seemed to be old friends, or maybe even rivals considering the passive aggressive comments. It was a shame to hear that all the jobs had been taken, although he stood still and casual, Measha's body and mind were on fire, he was pumped and ready for action. He had felt this way the whole trip here and it was disappointing that he would have to wait for who knows how long for the others to return. Although it would give him a chance to get somewhat acquainted with the Guildmaster, and the town itself. He was also just as eager to take a look at the book the old man had given him not even ten minutes ago.

"Obviously you jest Beatrix ... This pup can't keep up with me if he tried . I may be old but I'm not decrepid!" Measha shot the stranger a glance. He wasn't from around here, and wasn't exactly sure who this guy was, but from the reaction the others seemed to give him when he walked in it was obvious he had somewhat of a reputation. Measha was about to reply with a snarky comment after the man was done with his confident speech, but he recalled the incident he made just moments ago when he mistook Beatrix for a common bartender. "Think before you act" he thought to himself.

"Speaking of the Guild," Measha said aloud, letting the strangers comment go. "Beatrix, I came here prepared to take on a job immediately, but since there are none, is there anything else I could do around here?"

Elliot pushed open the guild doors with a big smile on her face. She was dusty and dirty and had just managed to bag herself another reward off another job. She was getting worried though, she had always worked alone before she joined a guild and now that she had.... Well, she couldn't be doing higher level jobs without someone to do them with. She sighed, she'd have to find someone. She ran a hand through her hair was a couple of strangers caught her eye. Or one stranger and one very familiar bounty hunter.

She grinned and walked over to him and Beatrix, "Hiya Bea.... Hello Hector."
-
Hector stood up more straight as he heard "Hiya Bea, hello Hector." With out even looking he knew who it was. That voice was very distinctive... That rubbed him the wrong way.

He didn't want to give her a reply but he knew she would bug him till he acknowledged her... As she did in the past... Usually with a fire blast at his head.

With a gruff disgruntled voice he replied " Don't tell me your a member here..."
-
Elliot laughed as he seemed rather displeased that she was here. She pulled her coat aside and showed off her lovely mark of Azure Dragon Guild. She grinned, "Why, of course I am."

She leaned on the table next to him, "Don't tell me you're looking to join.... Giving up the life as a bounty hunter.... Someone get away?"
-
He looked at her mark and sighed with a sense of disappointment. As he looked away while she continue to speak. Then when she made a comment about someone getting away he growled. "No actually. I would still be out there right now if it wasn't for Beatrix creating this guild. Why did you join? Your reputation as a loud mouth psychotic pyro start to make you lose what work you had?
-
Elliot pursed her lips and shook her head, "No," she said firmly before crossing her arms, "I was looking for a real challenge"
-
"Making friends? I would agree that is a challenge for you ." He said with a sly smile
-
"Says you," She retorted with a laugh. She shook her head, "Well, it'll be a pleasure to have ya... What do you call yourself? Frozen Fang.... Ya..."

She held his gaze for a moment before smirking, "You know.... You aren't as scary as you think."
-
He raised an eyebrow at her comment about his nick name. Then she comment on him not being scary and he shook his head.

"I didn't pick that name... And the only reason your saying that is because I never went all out on you in the past. " he thought a moment. "Actually I don't think I even used half of my power on you and still manage to knock you around pretty good." He said with a smile.
-
Elliot let out a laugh and shook her head at him, "I don't believe that," She stopped leaning against the table and moved as close to him as she could before whispered, "And I don't think Jango would either."

She stepped back and placed her hands on her hips, "Hm?" She said in a rather delighted tone. She looked to the Guild Master and grinned, "Good seeing you again, Beatrix," She turned away from the two of them and walked over to the job board before she started perusing for her next job. She pursed her lips, there were a couple she was interested in but that her current level, she'd need someone.... but who?

Kaldis' eyes were unusually focused, but then again just the thought of what he was about to do was pumping adrenaline through his system, the bumps in the chain became nothing to him as he slowly raised his stance atop the board, standing expressionless as he went along. Despite how focused he was, a tinge of fear still lingered in the back of his mind as he pushed on, now completely raised from the board with his feet firmly planted on it, he kicked with his back leg to push it along even faster. The man who remained at the back lines had turned his attention to Kaldis speeding towards him, and fired wildly, a majority of his shots coming nowhere near Kaldis, though a few came close. The closest shot actually managed to hit the front of the wooden board, causing Kaldis to begin spinning from the sudden force, causing him to fall off and roll slightly. A sudden howl of pain emerged from the Mob boss, and as Kaldis turned to see just what had happened, his own face contorted as if he'd just hit someone with a car. The board hadn't just spun off and stopped, Kaldis' fall had actually caused enough force to shoot the board off the ground...right at the boss' groin. Every little scrap of confidence he had was shattered, he hadn't beaten the mob boss in some amazing, drawn out fight where he needed to call upon his inner strength; he'd gotten a lucky shot to the poor guy's junk.

Scrambling to his feet, he wondered just how people would remember this, of how he'd managed to break the single solitary rule that all men upheld when they fought: The D was off limits. Pushing thoughts of future mockery from his mind, he sprinted as quickly as he could over to the incapacitated mob boss, who was currently on the ground clutching his groin while swearing things to Kaldis that no women or children should have been present for. Within a second, Kaldis clasped his hands together and formed a 3ft stick with a rather large amount of wood near the end, and hit the mob boss over the back of the head twice with an audible *thwack*. Just like that, the man was now unconscious, at least for the time being. Quickly realizing that he was still on the battlefield, he clasped his hands together once more and formed another wall between him and the mobsters, after which he felt his breath starting to turn ragged. "Dang it...I can't keep making these...gotta make what I have left count." Slumping the unconscious man against the new thick wall, he flipped him over and placed both of his hands behind his back before materializing a pair of linked handcuffs between them; there was no chain, so it would be more appropriate to just call them restraints.

With the mob boss dealt with, Kaldis slumped his back against the wall near the corner, taking the boss' magic shotgun in his hands; he couldn't afford to use much more energy. "Orin! The other two got away, but I got this gang's leader! I-If you can take care of the rest, I'd appreciate it!" Kaldis shouted from behind the cover. Not wanting to seem lazy, he did at least pick up the club he'd used to knock out the mob boss and gave it a good toss, and as it hurtled through the air and smashed against some random mobster's skull he couldn't help but smile. "I actually managed to do something!" before ducking behind cover once more, keeping a form grip on the mob boss' restraints so he couldn't escape if he awoke.

Hector noticed the boy next to him prepare to say something to his comment about him being a pup. He smiled inwardly as the boy held his tongue, at least he had self control and smarts before back talking to him.

When she mentioned she named it after the dragon who raised him he nodded with a small smile, it was a good name fore the guild. seeing how Beatrix was similar in personality as Dragnartica. The thought of her made him miss the days he spent with her. it was a long time ago and he hasnt seen her in nearly 20 years.

"Speaking of the Guild," the boy said aloud, "Beatrix, I came here prepared to take on a job immediately, but since there are none, is there anything else I could do around here?"

Before he could say anything he had his encounter with Elliot. who ended the conversation with a low blow mentioning Jango, which only put him in a fowl mood. She walked away with a smug look on her face and moved over to the job board which looked empty save one,,, he shook his head and looked back to Beatrix who was speaking to the young kid again.

He then raised a finger and said, "Excuse me kid." then looking at Beatrix he twisted his arm so the underside of his forearm was showing, many evidences of scars of old wounds visable he said, " If you dont mind Giving me the stamp of approval so I can take that S class Mission? I'm sure you can use the extra cash to help finish the guild and pay off the debts. " He Gave her his most charming smile.

After Orion received his written and legally binding IOU from the Carriage driver he made his way back to the guild. While the mission as a whole was pretty much a bust he was kind of glade he got to test himself like he did. He knew he was lucky the bandit was not the real kyojin, and it was at least a good thing that he cleared his guilds name. But above all that Orion got his first Spoil of battle. This crossbow looking doom cannon that he should probably name something better than that. Since he himself was named after Orion the hunter, the constellation, he thought about the myths about his name sake. Only thing that really stood out to him was the fact that Neptune was the father of the Huner in the myth. so he decided to name the Crossbow of doom Neptune's bow. Jupiter might have been more fitting but he didnt care. he had a new plaything and it was to be called Neptune.

Ones path is two sides of a coin, it is also a reflection of the waters of the ocean that harmonizes with the wind's passing symphony that guides its medium. Like the blue sky and the blue ocean, a white bird that soars in a never ending loop of symphony forevermore, albeit an avenger. In the Mephisto HQ, forest, a young woman with pale skin and long black hair is seen bathing in the Lake, the lake is filled with blood and filled with dead people, the woman apparently does not care about modesty about her being in the nude, her aloof composure towards her soldier was in fact obvious as seen of their of corpses, enter Rukia.

"I'm not in the mood on carrying out a request from Master. If any of you grunts dare disturb me again, with it, shall you deal with me." a berserk button that is pressed ruthlessly murdering ones own ally, Rukia's tails were in a threatening fashion to the Mephy Soldiers, she wipes off the stains of blood of her skin with her tails and continues her healing therapy. The wounds she received last job request was the factor to her current state and until then shall she rest however little does she know that errands will hold her rest.

Lach Yawned as he stretched his arms by pointing them high in the air, rotating his wrist to un-tighten his forearms, cracking could be heard as he did so Which were folded against his chest for his hour nap in the Guild Hall. He squinted as he looked around, the light hurting his eyes. He saw some new people already who were not here the day before, Some young...one old, but experienced. He studied all in the guild from his corner as he had his legs folded and propped up on the table with his chair leaned back on its back two legs... the same position he held while he napped. His sword propped against the wall to his left just in case.

As he looked around he noticed many of the people he knew were gone, probably out on jobs... Which he remembered he slept through the posting of the new jobs. Giving himself a facepalm... he was running low on money, he had to get some for rent.

His thought process was interrupted as he heard Elliot talking smack to an old man, she seemed to know him... he did seem familiar but he couldnt place a name...oh well he will figure it out later.

Sighing he dropped his feet from the table and while the chair fell forward onto its four feet he grabbed his sword in the same motion as he stood up, spinning it into his sash around his waist. Then he made his way over to the job board with his hands cupping the back of his head, still stretching.

As he came to the board his hands still in the same position he looked at Elliot. "Hows it going? Didn't you just get back? Also whats the deal with you and that guy over there? Ex boyfriend or something?"

"You look very cheerful today, Noize. It's rather disturbing." said a middle aged man as he sat alone at a table for two in a local restaurant. He was in the process of cutting up a steak as a young man who seemed to be in his early twenties walked up and took a seat, placing his katana on the table. A cup of tea was waiting for him. The middle aged man practically shoved a piece of steak into his mouth with a fork. "Or should I call you by your new name?" he said with a full mouth. "Amera? Aroma?" The young man spoke with a very gentle tone and a smile on his face. "Akira. And I can't help how I act, Yagami. You know that."

Yagami swallowed his steak and curiously observed Akira for a moment. "Yeah, well, it still gives me the creeps. Anyways, down to business." He began to wipe his hands and mouth with a napkin before pulling out a flyer from his coat pocket and set it on the table, next to Akira's katana. Akira sipped his tea slowly as Yagami explained the situation. "Azure Dragon, just opened up officially today. Our sources are telling us that it's just a group of friends that want to play guild, but we still need to check it out. Word around town is a lot of newcomers are showing up, and the wizards themselves aren't half bad. Hell, I hear a dragon slayer just showed up to join."

Yagami lifted his right hand in the air and gestured for a waiter to bring him his check. "You know the procedure. Don't worry about not fitting in, the spell should take care of that for you, make you less uh, intimidating I guess. As always I don't know how long you'll be here, but i'll be in the area should something come up. Rukia should be here soon too, but I think i'm gonna have to go and get her myself. You know how she is." A waiter walked up to the pair, placing a check on the table. "Is there anything else you need, Mr. Yagami?"

"That will be all, thank you." The waiter walked away, Yagami paid the check, and stood up. "Good luck, Lightning Samurai" He said somewhat sarcastically as he walked out of the restaurant. Akira placed his cup of tea on the table, grabbed the flyer along with his katana, and waited a few minutes for Yagami to get far enough away before getting up and leaving himself. It took some asking around and walking before he could find the guild. It seemed to still be under some construction in some places. Akira rested his left hand on the hilt of his katana as he walked inside. He began to look around the guild, it wasn't too packed, but since Akira didn't know a single face here it made the building seem even more crowded, except for one of course; Beatrix Fairglaive. It was his job to know who the Guildmaster is. Akira looked around before spotting her at the bar, speaking with a few guild members. He walked over and merely took a seat, looking around as he waited, observing the structure and decor of the building along with the wizards that occupied it.
