[IC] Fairytale Town

[DixeyRay]

Hansel looked around out side and shook his head "seems as.if no one is here" he said to Gretel who was placing the soup on the table. " well I knew this offer would only take a few people. But at least we are here and that's all to it" Gretel said sitting down her brother was always on the optimistic side but she herself was too.
" I know Gretel but what do we do when a friend comes over like the neighbor, if we say our names they may recognize us" I think most people here are fairytales probably ones we've never err head of" Gretel replied " looking out the window to see a few people talking out side. "Who are them" she said her German accent coming out a bit frightened by the group hovering just a few meters in front of her house.

Phillip nodded, the looked on his face almost gentle, "Rest easy now, Carter," he said gently, yet strongly, "You did the best you could. Let us take care of the rest." He looked to the Duck. "You should take him to Ella, Syn," he said softly, "She can mend some of his minor wounds and at least ease his pain, so he can recover."

Looking up at James and Red, he stood and ran a hand through his hair. "You two should go somewhere safe," he said softly, "Some of my warriors will be here soon, as well as a few... 'friends'. It may get rough here and I don't want anyone else to be hurt." He looked at the pair. "Unless of course you'd feel better defending your freedom. Then the more the merrier. I have to... prepare as well." He looked a bit agonized when he said that final sentence, but he cast the other a rather genuine and sorrowful smile. "Prepare yourselves. This might get messy."

He strode off with that.

Karin jumped to her feet at the appearance of the man who leaped off the roof, her hand going to her side as if something were supposed to be there. She was confused for a moment before realizing that there was nothing there, and there hadn't been for quite some time. Phillip seemed to have the situation under control already, though, as he was already talking to the dark figure. When the man, Gus, apparently, had left, she stood there in shock. Charming? That Charming? The same one he'd heard of so often before? What was happening to the world now?

She looked back at Ella after being instructed to hide. "Why would I do that? That would be so uncool! After all, I was practically born on the battlefield, so I'm sure you could use my impressive abilities in something like this!"
Karin stood confidently, like a proud warrior should and beamed at the lady in front of her. Already she could feel the adrenaline that comes before a fight building up, and how she had missed it. "Besides, it sure beats being locked up again by that lady back at the cottage."

Duck drew his sword in anger." Im sure an army will come. Im ready to defend this place with my life." He turned to syn " you heard four eyes,right? "

Syn nodded and and started to flew off. Supprisely,the duck was good at stuff like this. Duck was to

As the moments passed,the buffed hybrid squeezed the little bird in his claw like hands. " dont worry Phillip..im coming soon...keep your pants on." Charles flew off,leaveing the burning city behind

[LovelyAnastasia]

"My noble Prince, in your current form it would be unvise to do so," Ella smiled kindly and put a hand on the dollish creature's head, "You must rest, vhat vith the current wounds you already have. The more protected Princes we have away from Charming, the better off the rest of our realm's creatures are." She didn't seem at all surprised. Maybe she was not as oblivious as she appeared.

"Yu are more more powerful against Charming healt'y and strong, than vhatever he has in mind for you and t'e others," she looked up, "Perhaps yu vould do me the honor of helping get more of t'e others on our side? It vill give yu a chance to meet more people as vell." She smiled. "Just be careful please."

Syn was soon on Ella's porch with Carter and she motioned for them to come inside quickly. "I'll have him eased 'nd resting in no time," she smiled calmly, "Set him on the couch. Ve vant him as comfortable as possible."

[YamiCuoreLaroux]

"You knew?!" How could she have figured it out so quickly? Karin hadn't even mentioned being royalty, never mind a prince. This girl just kept proving to be more and more impressive. "For how long?"

The other issue still stood, though. If there was going to be a battle, he wanted in. "Well, I could help with recruitment, I suppose, but the pride of the Sørensen house will not be locked away like a princess in a tower again! I'm more than capable in a fight even at half my greatness."

Her eyes widened at the sight of Carter. Yikes, that was quite a bit of damage. He'd seen more on the battlefield, of course, but it was still a lot. "Did that Prince Charming do that? He's certainly not what the stories say, is he?"

[AcetheKidd]

" qauck." Syn had helped crater on the couch and looked at him with an worried look and flew on the arm rest,studying his wounds

Crater had tip his hat to them." Thank you both for the kindness.. " he said with an gentle smile

[LovelyAnastasia]

"Since yu started blushing vhen I vaw curing you, dearling," she giggled, patting the cute little thing on the head, "Is quiet fun seeing yu in such a cute manner of flusterment." She took her hand from his/her head when Syn brough Carter in. Looking to Karin she gave him/her a little wink. "No shy girl vould ever look to Phillip for help in healing. Much less make him get childish and jealously riled up de vay you do. Tis a talent you have."

She looked to Carter as he was set on her couch. "Rest, dearling," she brushed Carter's hair from his face and smiled warmly, "Ve vill have you healing in no time." With a snap of her fingers, the plants around Ella's house began to rustle and shiver, some moving here an, others still mixing and mashing together. A grape vine crawled in from the backyard, running across the ceiling as it stretched and lowered down a few jars of the things its sibling flora had made. "T'ank you, sweetlings, yu are such a vonderful blessing," Ella took the items from the plant and it shivered in happiness before snaking back to her garden.

"Now t'is vill be unpleasant, Carter dear," she said with a concerned knit of her brow, "but vill be over in no time." She looked up at Karin. "Please assist us in anyvay you can, dearling. Any and all help is velcome, whether it is battle or recruitment." She rubbed one of the mixtures from a jar on her hands and gingerly lifted Carter's tattered shirt from his wounds.

"Charles is... complex," she said softly, "Sometimes ve do things ve are not proud of because ve believe ve must. He is as much in need of love as any other, no matter his sour qualities. But right now he is not in his right mind... Ve must help him." She closed her eyes and when she opened them against they were glowing a bright gold, like pure sunlight. Putting her hands on the wounds, she did similar ceremonies to that of what she had done to Karin. Only with Carter she had to take her time and focus. When she was finished with all she could do she felt weak and very tired. But she smiled at them and made sure he was as comfortable as possible.

"Syn, dearling, could yu get Carter and yourself something tu drink? I'm sure you are in need of it."

[DixeyRay]

Hansel got up and walked out side to the people standing in his yard. " Hey whats the problem, you legs wont work" Gretel fallowed with her arms crossed " Hänsel wieder hier und beenden Sie Ihre Rattenschwanzsuppe , Stoppen sie stört sie ein Recht auf ihre Stand Ich habe nichts dagegen zu haben." she said in German shaking her head she looked at them "Was wollen Sie?" - What do you want?-

[LovelyAnastasia]

Ella stumbled out to her front porch and flopped down into a chair. She was breathing like she had run a couple of miles and she looked very tired. Glancing up she noticed that they all had new neighbors. What a horrible time to move to town... Someone should warn them. But she was so tired... Ella felt bad about not being able to go and greet them. Everything had just sort of erupted into chaos...

[YamiCuoreLaroux]

The mention of the healing episode from earlier that day caused Karin's face to heat up again. That whole time... The whole time, she knew... And that Phillip guy too, apparently. That's why he sounded like... She shook her head of that thought, now simply wasn't the time for it. Ella, on the other hand, seemed to already have a perfect understanding of whatever was going on. It made him think about what he could possibly do. Perhaps recruitment would be a better position for him after all; he couldn't even swing a sword properly in this form. At the very least, maybe battle plans...

She watched again in awe as Ella performed her healing magic. It was just incredible to see, though he noticed that she seemed significantly more tired afterwards. He followed her out to the porch. "Hey, is there anything I can do to help here?" Looking up, Karin saw some new people standing around. "Who are you guys?"

[AcetheKidd]

Duck stood up tall on the fence and glanced outside of the town. His blade was strapped on his back and arms folded. He kept his eyes peeled " bring it....I'll have the first attack. "

" qauck.." syn flew into the kitchen and prepared the drinks for them both.

Crater flinched abit when she put the substance on his wound. They where pretty deep and he knew he wasnt able to aid them in the battle.

[LovelyAnastasia]

Ella smiled up at Karin, a tired kind of smile, but warm and cheerful none the less. "I'll be alright in a few moments...," she looked up at the male and female who seemed to have just moved in across the street, "New neighbors, I t'ink..."

Phillip stood with his hands on his hips, back straight, like a nobleman's statue made of alabaster and silver. "You should know that there is danger coming here soon," he said briskly, silver eyes flashing, "I'd either go somewhere more safe, hide, or get ready for a fight. That is all." The Ice Prince looked up at Karin and Ella. He pointed at Karin. "Take care of her while I'm gone. And if I come back and she's hurt, you and I are going to have a good long talk, Prince."

Ella waved away Phillip, a kind smile on her face. "Off vith you, Ice Prince, go get ready for your battle," she laughed softly and patted Karin's hand, "Pay him no mind, he is alvays too intense." She looked up at Hanzel and Gretle, her gold eyes shining warmly. "Ah, sorry ve have been a bit busy. Welcome to the neighborhood, da?" With Carter's wound mildly healed and continuing to heal from the salves she had enchanted, she was very tired. But Syn was looking after Carter too and Duck would fight with Phillip too and Karin was with her. She was being very calm about all of this, she knew, but what was the use of worrying when it helped no one?

[DixeyRay]

" Nun gut werden, fighting we done for ages" Gretel said waving the soup spoon in the air, "I am sorry for my sisters behavor and for not saying I'm Hansel that was Gretell nice to meet you " he said holding out his hand the sword on his belt clinging.

[WizardGirl]

Ashley: "I believe you, but i thought he wanted to kill his parents?"

[YamiCuoreLaroux]

Karin gave a smirk and saluted Phillip. "Yes sir, Pervert Captain! Nobody gets past the might of the house of Sørensen!" She looked a bit sheepish at Ella's kinder gestures, though. At the very least, she'd rather not have her mad. She still owed her for what she had done before, after all. She turned back to the others now gathered in front of the house across the street, taking in their appearances curiously.

[AcetheKidd]

About an hour passed Charles was in another town. The mighty hybrid stood in front an beautiful young lady. Their where a bunch of kids cuddled up against here. " your highness...im telling you the truth,i dont know where it is...please...spare this town."

Charles chuckled and picked up small child,running his claws in his hair." Maybe this little boy will tell." He said and rolled his tounge like an snake. The woman cried. " ok! I'll tell you,please dont hurt him!" She shouted. "I entrusted it to the ugly duckling"

Charles dropped the boy and snorted. " see,was that hard? Next stop...fairytale town." He flew off with a laugh.

"....im sorry duck.."

Crater took the drink that syn gave him and sat up abit." Thanks amigo..." he took a sip

" qauck!"

[WizardGirl]

Ashley: "So what do you guys need us for?" I ask, grinning

James: I stand there, watching

[LovelyAnastasia]

Phillip bristled and pointed at Karin like he was going to say something, but he just turned a bit pink and turned away.
"Charles is in the process of doing that now, from my understanding," he huffed, "But I'm off to break my seal and gain my full power. I'll be back soon." He crouched down and when he jumped up ice shot from his hands and he skated off somewhere, his ice trail melting once he was done using it.
[Exit Phillip]

Ella waved to the new neighbors and smiled the best she could. "Hello! Velcome!" she greeted as cheerfully as her tired body would let her, "I am Ella. Feel free to finish your soup. Ve vill still be here vhen you are finished." She bumped Karin and chuckled softly.
"You sure have a talent of getting to him," she laughed softly, "You must teach me sometime." Ella looked to Red and her Wolf, smiling.
"You should warn the others as quickly as possible," she said softly, "Everyone needs to know and be ready for an attack at anytime."

[DixeyRay]

Hansel looked at the lady waved back and went inside eating his rat tail soup as Gretel scolded him about talking leaving his soup cold on the table. Walking out side she took her bow and started to do some target practice on a tree in front of their house.
