Edo-Beatrix
The young woman took a step back when she saw Sasha begin creating a dragon out of ice. "Wha-what?" she let out nervously, skipping back slightly as it shot boulders of ice at her. She dodged most of them but threw a punch at the last one, shattering the ice and spraying it across the courtyard. Despite handling the immediate threat, Edo-Beatrix was clearly rattled. "Was that magic? How can you have magic?" Mayt began approaching now, and Edo-Beatrix seemed worried. A scowl formed on her face as she dashed forward, fist first. Rather than punching his lights out, some strange magic circle appeared just inches away from his face underneath her fist. "Wha-?" The reflected force of her own attack sent her flying backwards, hitting the ground with her back first and rolling a few meters before bouncing onto her feet and sliding to a halt. "You can't use magic," Edo-Beatrix said. "That's impossible." She looked over to the twins for support, creating a silent staredown. "Well, I'm outta here," the talkative twin said, booking it toward the Legion and hopping onto its back. His silent brother remained in the same spot, hands still in his pockets. "You fucking coward!" "No, I'm doing my job. Something you wouldn't understand. Hya!" The Legion flapped its wings once and began to lift off, leaving his comrades to fight on the ground. Edo-Beatrix returned her glare to Mayt and Sasha. "Don't need help anyways. Even if you have magic you have weaknesses somewhere." She raised both her hands over her head and brought them together as a single fist. "I'll just have to find them!" The tan woman slammed her fists into the ground, creating a directional shockwave toward Mayt and Sasha, destroying the ground underneath their feet. The big, armored man made no effort to dodge Edo-Damien's counterattack. His claymore smashed into the armor, but went no further in than a dent. "You cannot break this armor," Grade said, bringing his sword back in a lower sweep this time. "The thickest armor you can find in Edolas. I am one of the few strong enough to operate under its incredible weight. And I specialize in killing swordsmen." After his slash, he leaned in with a shoulder-charge to knock Edo-Damien off his feet. Though I am concerned, the armored man began to contemplate. With the opponents using magic, we can't win this battle. None of us are equipped to handle that.
Maddox
The red-haired mage crossed his arms over his chest. "The Anima," he began to explain. "I don't know how it works, but it is responsible for the transfer of objects between our world and one parallel to ours called Edolas. Many regard it as a mere myth, but it is a land similar to ours but with a different history and only a small, finite amount of magic." Maddox turned to face Trinity now. "Our guildmate, Wes Gusto, was sent there some time ago. Our reason to come here was to find a way to get him back. Now it just seems that even more of us have been sent to Edolas."

Edolas
Mayt
Mayt chuckled as the woman he was facing was surprised by their use of magic. "What? You thought I couldn't back up my words?" He continued walking towards Beatrix, even as she brought her fists down in the double handed attack. Watching the shock wave, he called out at the last second. "Energy Control Magic; Redirect!" As the shock wave came under him, a magic circle appeared, and the shock wave twisted quickly, launching Mayt into the air and towards Beatrix. He came down a few feet behind her, watching carefully for any sign of her trying to get under him, and ready to reflect any more attacks coming his way. Once he had found his way onto stable ground, he struck out with his sword, still in the scabbard, at Beatrix, aiming to hit any part of her he could. With one hand on the hilt, and the other on the scabbard. Each attack's speed seemed to be unnaturally fast, and the attacks came so close together for Beatrix to wind up for any good punches. Each attack would have a good deal of power behind it should he be able to land, and he'd try to follow up too quickly for her to break away and try and mount a good defense or offense. However, while the blade and its scabbard moved very quickly, Mayt himself still moved at a normal human rate, but he remained vigilant enough to try and reflect any attacks coming his way, and avoiding them if it was easy enough.
Mayat --- Edolas Phoenix Wing
Mayat growled as Lazarus went back into the room, and sat back down. "If he tries to leave again I'll beat the hell out of him myself. Same goes for the next time I see our Lazarus. They're both dunces, and need to get seriously smacked around." Mayat made strangling motions at the door, before sighing, and leaning back. "If this ever happens again, Trin is staying here, not me."
Earthland
Melina
Melina chuckled softly, and wet her lips. "There has been a few enemies I've come across that at the time I was unable to overcome. But as you can see I managed to escape their blood lust with enough of myself intact to matter." She showed off her hands, and all five fingers on both. "Most of my enemies, however, exist now as magic. Or are six feet under, depending on who or what got them first."

Joshua
Joshua sighed before heading off to find Jarvis, in particular, their Jarvis. After wondering around a bit and opening the odd door, he finally found the room Jarvis and Amelia were in. Knowing the young girl was likely still asleep, and proven right, he simply signaled the older mage outside. Once the older mage was outside and the door mostly closed, he began talking. "So, I've only known him a little while but I must say, our Lazarus is an utter moron." He said, holding out the piece of paper Laz had put in his pocket." He's messed with the plans the people here had and tricked Sasha."Apparently the plans are detailed here. Feel like causing some trouble? If you can get her up, we can bring Ame along as well."

Edolas
Edo-Karn Interacting: Sasha, Edo-Jamie, Edo-Trinity
The blonde watched, emerald eyes slightly wide in surprise at the two Earthlander's display of what must be magic. It was no wonder everyone bloody wanted it if it could do things like this. As the twins left and the fights continued, the blonde turned to Edo-Jamie. "I've always been good with nicknames." the blonde joked, feeling Edo-Trinity cling to them which earned a gentle pat on the head. Edo-Karn wasn't sure if it was exactly a good idea for Edo-Trinity to come along, but then again if one of the other two did, they'd probably just get mad in the end and throw a hissy fit. Already plenty of those. "I think they can handle it, we have three heads to take down. Plus if Sir Paladin wants to beat Viper before us, he'll make the fight quick." Edo-Karn said calmly, though once again briefly gripped their chest before heading after Edo-Trinity to the palace. Not long, solider's were armed and poised to strike them, making the blonde tsk before bolting foreword, moving up behind one as if to punch him but instead tapped the back of his head and put a beeping device on him before leaping away. The solider blinked before yelping as the device exploded and sent a current of electricity to the group of solider's, effectively knocking them out, but otherwise, not too much actual physical damage.

Jayce/Location: Edolas
Standing there for about a minute silently, Jayce blankly stared at the woman who insulted him...twice in about a minute. Sighing deeply, he simply took the berry and said: "Could have explained earlier." before he popped it into his mouth. Swallowing it, he rolled his shoulders as he felt...slightly better. Jayce didn't have much magical energy to begin with, so getting it back wasn't that too big of a change as opposed to losing it. Rubbing the back of his neck with his artificial hand, he said: "And, my name's Jayce....and I had a perfectly good reason to go in there." Thinking for a moment on what the woman said, Jayce realized she'd said Edolas...he'd recalled reading about it somewhere...never mattered much to him. Humming, he asked: "...So...you uh, mentioned a counterpart? What do you mean?"

Edo-Sasha
Edo Sasha shook her head "I'm not your precious, love sick little sasha. I'm not her. It's not ironic. It just is. And that's all that there is too it. You don't see us, those of Edolas as different to you. But we are. We have our own thoughts, feelings, skills and ways of doing things. I don't like you. I find girls more amusing and better to be around, after all" she slammed and locked the door, looking to Edo-Jarvis "I'm going to enlist Sayuri to take me to the capital. I'd just take her damned legion, but apparently it only listens to her. Can't get any worse then it already is, but if Master Jamie needs help, especially after this betrayal then I'm going to be there" She started out, fiding Edo-Sayuri. "you're taking me to the Capitol, but one wrong move, and I will not hesitate to stab you. Got it?"
Jarvis
Jarvis stepped out the room and listened to Joshua, but he chuckled and said "if you think Sasha was tricked for one moment, then you have a lot to learn about our guild. In anycase, we can't leave Lazarous here. And trouble seems to follow us no matter what" he sighed softly, and looked back to the room. "and I won't leave amelia behind. But how do we get out of here, with Lazarous?" [center][b]Pen[b][/center] Pen just chuckled, the guards never coming closer then the men he had hand picked. He blocked Edo-Lazarous's blow, twirled, breaking his Blade free, the twisting, bringing his blade up, and around, fully expecting a block. And it was music to his ears the silence that surrounded them as there was no fighting with the guards.
Sasha
As EDO-Karn and Edo Trinity went off, Sasha sighed. She watched Edo-damian and Mayt fighting for a moment, and then seemed to hesitate, looking to Edo-Jamie, wondering what she should do. But Edo-Jamie followed after his guild members, Liana by her side. So Sasha was left behind. She felt uneasy, and looked about. Shouts attracted her attention, and glancing at the fights again, she followed the direction of them, soon seeing Edo-Lazarous and Penny's counter part here, guards around them. "why do you always seem to attract trouble?" Sasha sighed softly, stepped forwArd, she loved swiftly through the guards, towards Edo-Lazarous.
Penny
"mines Penny. I believe that some of us have Edolas Counterparts here. Edolas is a parallel world to ours. Mine is Pen. His a bit....demented. In any case, we should head towards him. Before he does something horrible" she said, sighing wondering what she had done to get in this mess. Just done what was expected of her as a s class Phoenix wing member. She knew it would be the death of her.
Edo-Jamie
Edo jamie was not surprised that they were stopped by soldiers. Nor was he surprised by then gold coloured Legion coming from the castle. "be watching. The false queen is coming." Edo jamie held the sword effectively in one hand, but tooknout what appeared to be a round sqhere. As the gold legion circled above, Edo-Jamie took aim, and threw it. It had the effect of causing the legion to flew away slightly as noise erupted.

Zenoram/Zero, Mt. hakobe
As Hemlock, and apparently Zero, slept Zenoram simply giggled a bit at Karn’s purring. He liked Karn. He was so nice, much like himself. And he seemed genuinely interested. But his following question made him think. What was it like? He’d never really seen it as abnormal, although it was. And he didn’t see them as one person, rather as two. “I guess you could say it’s like having a constant friend. Well… Zero is more like a brother.” He smiled as he thought a bit more about it. “We don’t always see eye to eye. But for the most part, Zero does what he can to make me happy. And I do what I can to make him happy. Plus, he protects me! He’s protected me since the day he was born.” He cheerfully described his relationship with Zero. “Technically, he’s like a big brother. Even though he’s actually younger when you think about it. But that doesn’t matter. And thinking about it too much makes my brain hurt.” He ended with a little laugh.

"With these apparently." Joshua said, holding up the berries Lazarus had handed him" Laz could use magic and he mentioned we should eat these. If I had to guess, they'll give us the ability to use magic. I'm not sure if there is a time limit or not, but if that's what they do, we better make the best use of them. He also mentioned you being a master of Lacrima... what the heck is that? Care to teach me some day? And, going a bit off topic, what do you think of Ame's wings? Where you surprised by them?"

Karn Fiore || Mt. Hakobe Interacting: Zenoram/Zero
Karn eagerly listened to Zenoram explanation, enjoying the friendly boy's company. As the Chimera listened, he couldn't help but think about it. A big brother? It reminded him of his own, but Karn's big brother didn't really seem to feel the same compared to Zero and Zenoram. It was a little sad, but his big brother was doing well so it didn't really matter. Plus he had Master Rian and Ru. Chuckling at Zenoram's explanation came to a end, Karn nodded happily. "Wow, I'm glad you two are fortunate enough to be together. Makes me kinda wish I had someone like that." he chuckled a little.
Edolas
Edo-Karn Interacting: Edo-Jamie
Edo-Karn minorly glanced back before looking up at the sky at the gold legion. Emerald eyes narrowing a little before the gloved fingertips once more sharpened and grew in length with claws. "Well I'll happily take out that war leader if you let me." they said, voice firm and serious as they watched the Guild Master throw the Round sphere and cause the gold legion to fly a bit away. If anyone deserved the one chance, it was that bloody bitch.

oh penny!" Angelo said laughing hugging her glad to finally meet someone from where he was from. He let go and nodded "god im glad to have seen you. no offense but I think that your right about pen he isn't like you, a lot meaner and.....darker even for a guy version of you" Angelo said smiling glad to have finally meet someone from back home even if it was seeing the male version of them first. Right now Angelo couldn't help but wonder what his edolas version of himself was, probably a really bad guy if Angelo was honest with himself he would have been a lot meaner or angrier but with an evil smile on his face "penny im staying with you and hopefully we can find a way back home. In all honesty your the only person from earth that ive meet here in this no magic world."

Gentsai
Location: Outside Edolas Phoenix Wing's Guild Hall Behind the tree line, a man shrouded himself with the surrounding foliage as he was approaching the guild hall and saw Edo Sayrui land her legion. He looked at her with relief and gasping for some air, Finally, I can stop for a breath or two. Why does it have to be that legion and why did I decide to follow on foot. Gentsai remained hidden as he saw Sayrui walk towards the entrance and noticed Pen and Lazarus were also there as well. For some time, he has been concealing himself as he saw people come and go from the building until he finally saw Sayrui walk outside with no one around. He waited for about a minute to make sure no one came out or followed her before he got up from his position. As he walked closer, he stopped behind the last tree before the clearing so he wouldn't be seen and began making a distinct bird call in hopes that she could recognize him calling her over.

Lazarus He heard them talking about him. He didn't react. He just sat there, in the room. The only way he would be able to leave this room without hurting anybody, or damaging anything, was with Jarvis' teleport lacrima. He sighed, and twiddled his thumbs. He hope his edo-version was well. Edo-Lazarus He grumbled, bring his own sword upwards to parry. The men that had come to his aid were falling quickly. "Stop this madness Pen!" He charged forwards again, swinging from the side, and then from the top. "You were like a brother to me. It doesn't have to be this way!" He swung again. He jumped backwards. "We can fix all this Pen..." He paused, looking Pen in the eyes. "But only together." He frowned. EL-Sasha had arrived. He smirked a little. "I try not to. Recently, trouble is the only thing I've got for trying to do the right thing." he chuckled. "Now... if you could be so kind as to help me and my men out here, I'd be much obliged." He grinned, but look back to Pen. "Pen... it doesn't have to be this way... come back to us..."

Edolas Sayuri
She stares up at the sky thinking about what she was going to do when she hears a call that makes her smile. She looks to make sure nobody was looking for her. Satisfied she walks over to the tree the sound had come from and leans against it opposite her mentor. She stands there for a second before talking, "Hello there. It's been a while since you've made any contact with me. I was starting to think that you'd forgotten me. Anyways your probably looking for an update on what's happening aren't you? Unfortunately I don't actually know much other some general facts," she pauses downing the last of her drink, "It will also be hard to get me out of here if the need arises..." she stopped talking as the door opened. She raised an eyebrow at the demanded to be taken to the capital. She thinks for a minute, "Alright but I need a couple things. I'm not leaving without my swords and I'm not taking you there unless your armed as well. To much danger. You may not accept it but one of my duties is protecting our citezens."
Masahiko
He looks around as Kights ran around following the orders given by him and Grane. Smiling he turns to look at the damaged council building. The site actually amused him, 'Heh, the grand symbol of the Fiores magic. Now so damaged. Mirrors what the council looked like until now. Well I plan to fix all this,' he sighs and turns to look at the people still there many looking nervous, "Hmm... should probably get some soldiers to send them away..."

"So here you are, running in headlong to try and fix things, and things only.got worse, huh?" Trinity looked around their vicinity before noticing something. "Hey, Karn and the others left." She continued to scan the area briefly before just shaking her head. "Too far... maybe they went back to the guild." Trinity considered it for a moment, before looking to Maddox. "Well, unless you've got another idea, we should probably head back for now. I don't wanna leave you on your own, either. You've been beat up more than a little, yeah?"
Edolas
Trin continued to cling to Karn's arm, now more out of affection than fear or something else. She gazed up at the Legion circling above, nuzzling against her cuddly for comfort. The circling above made her nervous, but she'd just have to tough it out. She couldn't slow the others down.

Jarvis
Jarvis took one of the berries, studying it, before eating it. He looked surprised at the question of lacrimas and said "my magic is lacrima manipulation. I can basically manipulate a lacrima to my need. It's not something that can easily be taughT, Joshua. I can teach you how to use lacrima, but manipulating them? It's something completely different" he looked back to the room, and shrughed "other then anger for those that would hurt a little girl like that? Not much." he turned and opened the door to the room, going over and gently shaking Amelia
penny
Penny smiled indulgently to Angelo and said ""I dontnlike him either.which is why I'm going to enjoy taking him down" she said, figuring that she now only had to find Mayt, and then that would be everyone. Then she remembered Sayuri, and grimaced. "I've only found Jacye. But I imagine Mayt is around someone, as is Sayuri"
Sasha1
Sasha gave a sigh. She wasn't surprised that he was trying to convince Pen, but she saw it as a lost cause. "he's not going to give in or change his mind." she looked around at the fighting, and sighed, stepping close to Edo-Lazarous, she attacked ice make: bird Bombers! the birds formed, and began dropping, around the guards, avoiding Sasha herselfC and just narrowly avoiding Edo-Lazarous. Pen still stayed standing, and Sahsa continued ice make: floor!" the ice formed over the floor, and she kept her feet easily.
Edo-Sasha
"you don't get ypur weapons until we are at the capitol. Oh. And I am also armed" she took out a dagger smoothly, and smirked. She ignored the stranger for now, and returned the dagger. get your legion"
Edo-Jamie
The gold legion landed, and Edo-Jamie watched Thw Queen,Edo- Angela, climb down. He wanted a few moments and then said "well. I always knew you'd be taken down, Angelica. And I'm so pleased to be a part of it." she looked to Edo Karn and smiled "she's all yours, Karn"

like I said im sticking with you from this point on and I wouldn't worry about beating your edo version considering nobody here has actual magic. at least from my understanding edolas can only use items imbued with magic in them unless their one of those cat bird things. Even if we don't have an unlimited amount of magic we still got more power then anyone here." Angelo said thinking it was sound logic from what he heard of stories about edolas this is the first time being here in person of course and their was no way of him going to far from penny now that he has found someone here that doesn't creep the hell out of him.

Location: Outside Edolas Phoenix Wing's Guild Hall "Any kind of fact that you know might be of value to me. Remember one of the lessons that I told you about that involved information? One man's trash and is another man's treasure." He turned around, checking to make sure no on was around before he continued. "And I guess our small and short visits haven't faded for you, good. That guild master surprisingly knows quite of bit of things throughout Edolas. There must be something that she or he might of told you while you were there or seen something of interest. Also, what are Pen, Lazarus doing there too?" "You know, during the times that I disguised myself and went into some towns or cities. It felt like I seen someone familiar, possibly the princess, Liana." He sighed for a second with the thought of her and continued. "I know that the chances of seeing her a slim and impossible, but she almost resembled her. After all, it has been years and she would be older than the last time I seen her. During the time when I had my title that you have now, I've seen a plenty of different faces, and her stood out. Have you heard anything of the princess lately?"

I know I we talked about it shortly, but beside just the members that we need to replace. What else should we do? We cannot allow the events today to happen again, so we must plan on fixing those problems that might of caused these events and add any additional ideas that could help reinforce some of those ideas.

Humming to himself for a moment as the new guy showed up, Jayce let them have their bonding time. Turning away, he whistled a little tune as he held his arms behind his back to pass the time, thinking for a bit on what Penny had told him. "...Well...looks like I have to put getting back to Kabo on the backburner for now. Seems like this is a fair bit more important." With a nod to reassure himself, he turned back around once the two were done talking. Flexing his shoulders slightly, Jayce asked: "So, what's the plan to stop this other you?

Joshua and Amelia
"I don't even know what a lacrima is. All I want to know is what it is and how to use it, if I even can." Joshua said before Jarvis went to get Amelia. He wasn't surprised to hear that Jarvis had been angry about how Amelia got her wings. Anyone who knew and didn't think she was some sort of freak would be. Amelia took several seconds to even groan before slowly sitting up, yawning. "Are we going home yet?" She mumbled, rubbing the sleep out of her eyes before looking up at Jarvis, obviously still but alert enough to register anything he would say.

Edolas
Edo-Karn Interacting: Edo-Jamie, Edo-Trinity, Edo-Angelica
"Why thank you GM." Edo-Karn grinned a little as they were given the go ahead. Before pausing to turn their emerald green eyes to the clinging Guildmate. Edo-Trinity wasn't a fighter, so the blonde didn't really want the girl to get too close in the fight. They already knew it was going to get ugly. Gently, Edo-Karn pried Edo-Trinity off before patting the top of her highlighted head. "Stay with the Princess, Trin." The short blonde said with a brief smile before sharpening as they looked back to the false queen, cracking their knuckles slightly and taking a deep breath to calm the heart as best as possible. "Let's do this then. Hope you're ready for a well deserved punch to the face Queen Bitchiness!" Edo-Karn smirked before their boots sparked slightly before speeding toward the Gold Legion at a remarkably fast pace before leaping up. Crossing their arms in front of them, fists clenching before relaxing to reveal black orbs in between the four slender fingers of each hand before u crossing the arms to thrust them foreword. Launching the orbs at the false queen that would cause a explosion of smoke and fire. Right after, Edo-Karn unhooked the whip from their belt, twisting the handle a little. The rest of the long black whip suddenly sparked with blue electricity. Spinning around, the blonde fell toward Edo-Angelica, lashing the whip at her.
