[IC] Phoenix Wing (A Fairy Tail RP-Always Open, Open)

[Joshua Tamashii]

Elyse Yashai

Where- Phoenix Wing guild hall, her and Rose's room

Elyse ran through the halls of the guild, reaching the room she shared with her mother. The inside was very simple, a single bed as Elyse always slept with her mother due to her fear of being alone at night, a corner filled with toys that Elyse had. There was also a small bookshelf there, filled with books that Elyse liked to read or have her mother read to her. Next to it was a series of drawers that contained various things as well as a candy jar on top and well out of Elyse's reach, much to the little girl's chagrin. Staring at the jar for a few seconds, she opened the bottom drawer and brought out a small ball with several needles in it and a spool of thread, the kind she had seen her mother grab to treat others before, though Elyse had never seen the treatment.

Once she had what she needed, the child ran back downstairs, almost tripping going down them, though she caught her balance quickly, and moved over to her mother.

Jack, the Maiden of the Mist

Where: Phoenix Wing guild hall, central area
Interacting with: Rose, Jack, Elyse

Jack looked up the Master Jack, examining him closely. After hearing his terms, she gave him the slightest of nods.
"We understand. Despite what it may seem, we have never betrayed an employer before now. We just have to view the guild in the same way. It just might be a bit hard... adjusting and having to learn to care about others." She said, before sighing." We would get up right now, but with our current injuries, moving would be too risky. Talking is also risk but slightly less so.

By the way, can we get your name? Or would you rather we just call you Sir or Master instead? If it's any interest to you, we like to be called Jack."

Joshua Tamashii

Where: Train
Interacting with: Angelo

When the train arrived, Joshua took a few seconds to study and marvel at the machine. While he thought it could be quieter and it looked like it wouldn't be able to start once it stopped, he guessed these things had proven themselves and remained in use for a reason. Grabbing his katana, he followed Angelo onto the train and to the seats they would be using for the trip. Once they arrived, he relaxed in his seat, once again keeping his blade well within reach. When the train started moving, he stared outside for a couple of minutes before turning to Angelo.
"So... I guess if we're going to work together, we should at least get to know each other. Care to tell me a bit about yourself? And maybe why you have a bird with you?" He said

Amelia Averyonna

Where: Phoenix Wing guild hall, her room
Interacting with: Jarvis

"Thank you." Amelia said, both to Jarvis saying he could get rid of the bloodstain and to him saying he would leave while she changed. Thankfully he had, as it took a bit longer then it usually would due to her having to find a place to hang the ruined shirt in a way that the blood on it wouldn't spread due to it still being wet, after using it to wipe the blood off her stomach. She just managed to put her new shirt on, a plain green sleeveless shirt that only covered half her back, allowing her to spread her wings without any fabric getting in the way. When Jarvis came back in, she turned around and gave him another smile." Thank for getting the... is that chocolate?!" She said, her eyes lighting up just like they had on Edolas when she spotted the candy Jarvis was carrying. You could almost see stars in them.

@Joshua Tamashii

Well I'd you want to know more about me then I guess I should say that I've ran away from home from a young age thanks to my abusive father. My mother was a kind soul however and was usually the target for his drunken attacks. I ran and when I was starving and hardly had any food mark swooped down and looked at me with pleading eyes at my loaf of bread I gave him half and since then he has been my companion and my closest friend. I do what I can so one day I will be promoted to s rank to prove to the world that no matter where you come from you can still live a bright future." Angelo said softly petting mark softly then he turned to him "so what's your story?"

[Amaya Tamashii]

~*~Amaya Vanisis~*~

Where:in some desert
With:Nolan,Floe, and Lucas

Amaya listened to Nolan as she just let him do things his own way, the she has to do the more likely she wont have to reveal one of the many mysteries of who she was and how she became who she is. She loojed around takingin detail while lucus attempted to strike a conersation as one phrase caught her attention What is...Eye spy?" she asked before seeing pillars of sand shot up "oh god..."she said keeping the reins of her horse tight in her grip as the sudden shift had startled her horse hey!hey! Calm down!"

*~*Rose Yashia*~*
Black Rose of the phoenix

Where:Phoenix guild
With:jack/death, Jack

Rose sighed " I would be lieing if I said it was a easy transition...I is hard to change enspecially when you are use to the way of life you lived all these years and it will haunt you with thoughts of if you choose right or where you might be if you stayed...It is a scary thing but I don't regret my choice, i never been happier and at more ease them where i am here...You will make it through this Jack and I know you won't regret it ever."said rose gently to the girl. She listened to both of them speak. She smiled while she heard elyse running back as she took the needle and thread.

Rose used the needle and thread fir her own cut jack gave her. She hide it with her magic but there was only so much her magic could hide.

@BrodZ11711@Amaya Tamashii@Lugubrious
Bert's fate was an unfortunate one. He lost everything and all he had left now was his life, which seemed void of all meaning as he waited for death. Despite people saying that Nolan was a heartless devil that couldn't care about others besides himself, he wasn't that far on the asshole spectrum. The story tugged his heartstrings and he felt some form of sympathy for the broken down man. Perhaps this man was beyond being saved? It maybe more merciful to end his life right there so he wouldn't have to live another second of his pathetic existence. But then there was something off about him. Bert's eyes widened as if he saw the monster right before him. Wait, You've come? "Stop you-!" Sand blasted Nolan away from the man, tumbling in a backwards somersault before landing on his hands and knees, quickly standing back up with Kaso, his katana, held with his left hand. "Great, just great. This guy is a fucking loon." The God Slayer grumbled to himself.

Their situation wasn't ideal. Bert had become violent and was trying to crush them with massive sand pillars that surrounded them from all directions. While Nolan was as calm as he ever was, but agitated when Lucas said that he would do whatever Nolan said. "You imbecile! Fight, not talk!" Ashes appeared around his arm then traveled to the palm of his hand, forming a sphere the size of a basketball. "Ash God's Explosive Cinders!" He shot the sphere with a punch and it flew straight forward towards the falling pillars in front of them, the attack expanded into a massive that consumed the pillars before exploding with tremendous force that shot sand and ash everywhere.

Once the opening in front was created, ashes exploded beneath Nolan feet to give him a speed boost as he dashed towards Bert with Kaso in both hands. Nolan had kept his body down low close to the ground and when he was in range, he used his forward momentum to power up his horizontal slash towards Bert's stomach.

Jack Goran|Phoenix Wing Guild Hall

Jack chuckled as she gave her own name, kneeling down and picking her up and carrying her to a table to lay her down. "Well, Jack, you may call me Jack, Master Jack, Sir, Master, or any thing else respectful you can think of. And no I'm not mocking you, Jack Goran is my full name, guild master of the wizard guild Dragon Fang based in Shirotsume Town. And allow me be the first to formally welcome you into the guild." James walked over once more and started healing the girl, for which Jack thanked him. "Is there any foods or anything in particular you like?"

He knew he was taking a chance, taking in a former assassin. But he also knew that her actions her entire life, her way of thinking, were a product of how she was raised and what she was taught. He grew angry again as he thought of that, the black flames appearing on his hands before he calmed himself enough to disperse them. He smiled at Jack and waited for Jamie to finish his business with the dark guild girl.

[Lugubrious]

Somewhere in the Desert

Even as his pillars of sand crumbled beneath the fury of the Ash God's Explosive Cinders, Bert seemed comparatively unfazed. While a wild look remained burning in his eyes, as of one unfortunate enough to glimpse the deeper, terrifying mysteries of this world, the rest of him had steeled itself with an odd resolve. Death, it seemed, sobered the lunatic greatly; he would face his perceived archenemy, the monster responsible for the annihilation of his every friend, with a warrior's dignity. The appearance of Lucas at Nolan's side had initially deepened his depression, but in the end it didn't matter how many forms his amorphous enemy took if it spelled his doom regardless. All that was left was the fight. It didn't take a fully lucid mind to fight with uncanny strength, for in the course of his mastery of the desert sand Bert Cunningham had transformed technique into instinct. Sand Eulogy, slow and obvious, was for him a testing move.

The distance between the sand wizard and Nolan allowed him to view the Phoenix Winger's approach despite his speed. Bert set a foot backward, a single hand extended downward in knife position and the other chambered, bent, with the elbow up by his ear—the Shifter's Stance, able to assume offense or defensive position at a moment's notice. Still, whether by a hindering flare of madness or some other disadvantage, Bert did not properly gauge Nolan's proximity, or else respond quickly enough, for no magical defense had been conjured before Kaso cut into his side.

Bert gasped and, spurred by the pain, pushed the chambered hand downward in a knife-motion. Sand whirled through the air to shape itself into a bladelike protrusion covering the arm, and Bert shoved the blade away before it could cut any deeper. Red blood spurted from the wound to dribble through the wizard's clothes and spatter onto the sand. “Sand Rebellion,” he intoned again, this time around himself, to discourage Nolan coming nearer. When the resulting explosion cleared, he stood a few meters farther away, the wound just below his ribs blanketed in sand. “Nearly...had me. But no monster's gonna have an easy time of old Kalahari Bert...not in my territory.” He resumed his stance, shouting, “Kalahari Secret Move: Desert Kingdom!”

The earth itself heeded the sand wizard's words, rumbling and rising. Walls of sand erected themselves from the shapeless dunes, chiseled into ramparts and battlements. Bert himself stood upon a rising tower, one that loomed thirty feet in the air, but six identical replicas of said tower lay at even intervals along what was now a literal sand castle. “And...Sand Tumult!” Between the edifices he'd crafted from the beige powder sea, the ground began to churn. Infused with chaos, the open sand swirled and sank, creating a mire of sinkholes ready to trap any members of team Powder Keg that were careless enough to try traversing the Desert Kingdom on foot. “Come on then, monster! I'll show you what Magnum Hound's S-class can do!”

Until now, Fleo's attention had been devoted solely to trying to keep the horses in check, but the sight of the sands themselves twisted and forming themselves to Bert's command convinced the horses that their best chances of survival lay elsewhere. Rearing back, they threw Amaya and Fleo to the ground before bolting. With a merry expression not much altered despite a healthy carpet of sand, Fleo jumped to her feet, shook her head clean, and willed a Sirocco into existence. “Alright, party's started! Good luck, buddies!” Buoyed on that carpet of dust, she sailed over Bert's Sand Tumult, dodging between towers and walls until Bert's bastion lay just ahead. “Funjin Bakuhatsu!” Three dust bombs materialized as she jumped, which she hurled at Bert. The sand wizard, however, was ready. Throwing one of his hands sideways, he chanted, “Sidewinder!” and a snakelike column of sand arced in from the side, spearing through the bombs and causing them to explode harmlessly in the air. Bert swept his fist the other way, and the sand column twisted around, smacking Fleo and throwing her off to the side. She managed to yell, “I'm okay!” before she rammed straight into a sand tower, sticking in halfway in a comical manner totally unsuited to the current situation.

Bert moved his hand yet again, and the sidewinder veered toward the next closest person—Lucas.

Nero – Balsam Village

“Oh, come on, it'll be fun! Who doesn't want more power?” Nero rebutted earnestly, secretly bemoaning the fact that everyone seemed suspect of his gifts. Surely they didn't know that after the magic power 'high' he'd give, there'd be a 'low'? Ah, well. Any further coaxing on Nero's part fell away as its intended subject collapsed abruptly to the floor, taking on an extremely sick pallor. I didn't do that, did I? He glanced at Trinity, wondering if she'd accuse him. It seemed, however, that the minstrel -beyond a worried look- wasn't too concerned with the man. Regardless, Nero never planned to show his full hand. Hell, even he didn't know the full extent of what he could do, particularly if his session with Jamie had made the Law of Manifestation operational.

Sasha's pleas, however cute her face when distressed, did not guarantee much help from Nero. “Uh, don't know what I can do. Got my MD from clown college. Heh heh. Er, sorry.” Nero rubbed his head dolefully, his everpresent smile less garrulous with eyebrows upturned in sympathy. Of all people, Prince came to the rescue, proving to a grudging Nero that perhaps he had a purpose after all. “Galuna? That a place or a business?” More interesting than the origin of the toxin, however, was Prince's ability to detect from mere order where the venom had been administered. An idea struck him, one too fun for proper consideration to be given for consequences. “Hey, if it was the train, it was probably Shujin. Nobody else came close to us. What a mean trick!”

[Burthstone]

Serma Cathris

Cathris blushed just a little when Jamie mentioned Melina not seeming to be in a guild. "Well, as of right now she's still recognized as a part of Iron Enigma, at any rate. Just, uh, her mother put her guild mark in an, um, awkward place. So it'd be hard to see anyway. Thanks for being nicer than that other guy. I think it's sad you wouldn't tell us where Melly is, but if she stops by sometimes then that's useful information! Thanks again." She gave the Guild Master of Phoenix Wing a big smile. "I feel like chances are we'll meet again some day, so until then." She gave a little curtsy before heading out of the guild, happy as a lark, and glad she at least could bring one lead as to where Melina was back to her Guild Master. Mrs. Marris hadn't been much help in that regard either.

Lucas Ryder

With:

@hatakekuro@Amaya Tamashii@Lugubrious
It was amazing. Nolan exploded the pillar of sand then rocketed towards the target. Almost identical to what Lucas would've done. He watched as Bert flung Nolan off with slight trouble. Nolan's one tough son of a bitch... Maybe I shouldn't intervene however... I mean he does- Lucas's mind was suddenly brought back to the world around him with sound of explosions, his eyes wondered until he saw the source. A snake like sand pillar hit Fleo into another pillar, then it's course changed, headed straight towards Lucas.

Lucas quickly looked at Bert, who wasn't 100% focused on his own Snake like creature, With half his mind on other things, this attack won't be full power. Nolan, I hope you're watching because this is gonna be bad-ass... Lucas stopped his semi crouched stance and stood up straight. His cape blew with the wind, his hair slightly waved, almost untouched with the destruction around him, his eyes and closed and his breathing slow. The snake was coming faster now, almost in range. When it was a mere 3 feet away it's mouth opened, right as Lucas opened his eyes, lighting with yellow instead of the standard blue, Crash: ookii Bakuhatsu! (Big Explosion!). The snake engulfed Lucas... but suddenly, the snakes body expanded in the center, until it finally gave way, letting the explosive BOOM sound as the snake exploded back into sand particles. Lucas smiled as his yellow eyes faded to the original blue. Amaya! Amaya still stood at the original start, a sand spike appeared to be coming from behind and Amaya didn't see. Lucas's face dropped, his feet exploded, launching himself towards the girl, "AMAYA!!!"

Where: Some desert
With:@BrodZ11711@Lugubrious@hatakekuro

Amaya didn't land gracefully like Floe when the horse reared back,sending her flat on her back. She quickly got back up tosssing her coat to the side. Man, the heat was brutual and of course they had to get a S-rank nut job.She watched the others attack the sand mage only to more or less batted away as if they were flies. She couldnt really relie on her heightened senses as all she could hear was sand moving along with her friends being flung around.

She snapped back to reality when she heard lucas shout her name before rocketing towards her. She felt the sand shift behind her. She twisted to the side barely avoiding the spikes. She looked toward the raised tower sighing. She had no choice it was either reveal her secret to assist or be hated and considered useless.

"Ice Dragon's Roar!" she shouted taking in a deep breatg before letting out the spell pointed towards the ground. She was perpalled from her spot. She twisted using her momentium to bounce from pillar to pillar towards the sand mage. Once she was above the mage she tightened her left fist while bringing it up to her ear. Her right was held out straight aiming at the sand mage as ice enguled her fist "Ice dragon's Diamond Fist!" She fell toward the mage using her momentum to add more force to her attack as she sent the punch towards the mage. Not only would her attack have a great damage outcome but it would give a small affect of a very short period of paralyzation to the part or parts of the body where she attack landed.

[MarshiestMallow]

jarvis

Jarvis nodded, setting the water and glass on the draw set, pouring a glass. "indeed it is, little one." he said, smiling at her expression, he held out the chocolate, "I figured you deserved some chocolate" he said kindly, smiling, and waiting for Amelia to take it. "I want you to rest some more. I have some alarm lacrima around in case there's some more of those weird people around like the woman."

Master Jamie

Jamie sighed heavily, feeling for the moment, he didn't have anything to do. No one seemed to demand her attention, or which he was glad. She sat down, weary beyond belief.

And then someone walked through the door, and demanded his attention. "Master Jamie? I'm Janice from the magic council. Here to talk to you about the recent activities against the council"

Jamie groaned inwardly, but rose with dignity, walking over the the council member, obviously a new one. She stood straight, and seemed to radiate snobbiness. They seemed very well groomed, and Jamie knew that this woman would be a stickler for rules.

"I know why you are here. Punishinent for leading my guild to attack the council. I could argue and say that it was on Masahiko's orders or request given the fact that most of the council was corrupt, but that was only discussed after the fact." Jamie said, in an offical tone, but almost mocking it, just wishing this to be over, or perhaps still hurting from recent events. Or just annoyed. It wasn't quite clear at the moment.

Jamie stood waiting for the woman To speak, and when she opened her mouth, he jumped in and continjed speaking "however, any punishment you are thinking of giving will not affect my guild, as from this moment, I am no longer guild master, conceding the role to Jarvis. Any actions my guild did were based on my orders. And thus, any punishment must now fall to me singularly" Jamie dropped this little surprise without any emotion,'her tone neutral, her expression hard.

"further more,'I would like to take this out of the guild, and indeed out of the city as there are some people is rather not have known right now, nor do I think it is safe for anyone from the magic council to be here. Dark guilds will probably want to attavk you as much as they do this guild"

Jamie looked around the guild, with regret, and pain. For now, there wasn't any time but to take one more look around. He sighed, the lacrima in her pocket a heavy weight, and heading out the guild, giving Janice no choice but to follow.

sasha

Sasha let Prince do whatever he was doing, but as Nero spoke, she rose, to her complete height, and she glared furiously at him. "do you ever know when to shut your mouth? How do we know it wasn't you, the self proclaimed "dark mage"? she demanded, but didn't wait for him to give her an answer.

"it can't have been him, as Lazarus or I had eyes on him. So how about you use what little brain power you have and just shut up!" she was tired, worried and just plain annoyed. Nero seemed to be enjoying this little drama, and that was just demented to her.

She shook her head, and turned away from Nero, back to Lazarus, back to Prince. "will he be okay? How can we treat this? What does Galuna do? There's health potions back at the guild, and I think James has healing magic of some kind...what do we do?" she didn't know much about posions and Prince seemed to know a bit about it all

[CitrusArms]

Balsam Village

Prince rushed in to assist and take charge, Nero snarked from his corner, and Sasha snapped back at him. Oh, dear, it seemed she was only dealing with one adult, here. Trinity steps up to Sasha's side and kneels next to her. She leans up gently against her back and places her hands on her shoulder, speaking softly to her. "Now, now, Sasha," she sings, before speaking the rest properly, "snapping at the shady manikin-man isn't going to help anything. I know you're worried, and tired... let Catman take care of him. Lazarus was showing a lot of energy until just now, I'm sure he'll be fine. Instead of trying to take charge, now he can use that energy to recover."

She studies the two for a moment, before smiling sweetly and nestling close to Sasha's back. "Hey hey. If you're really worried, I could help you make a Love Arrow for him. Don't worry about being tired, you can make it up with-" she suddenly moves an arm to hold Sasha's waist, motioning dramatically to the air. "Love! And I'll be helping, too, of course." The important part was not to freak out. Calm down, form a plan, and move forward.

[YipeeXD]

Lazarus

Still pale, and covered in sweat droplets, trickling from his face, he could breath somewhat thanks to Prince's quick treatment. He was back on his front, and he grasped at the ground, gasping for air, which the poison had previously denied him. His body was still in a state of complete shut down, and emergency. Vaguely aware of the things going on around him, due to blurry vision and echoed hearing, he realized Trinity and Sasha were kneeling next to him. Just before Trinity's arm touched Sasha's waist, he mustered up some energy, and assertively gripped her wrist hard. He rolled his eyes up to look at her, stammering. "You... people... you mock everything holy... what makes you think we are an item?..." He stopped, to catch his breath. "We are... two... souls that need... each other..." He coughed. "Loneliness is a horrible thing... but... to be a boyfriend... wouldn't I have to ask her...? That has not yet taken place... So...." He gave her a deathly glare. "Mind your own damn business for a change." He was sure it was the poison talking, but he didn't want to stop, he was so angry that people assumed they knew everything about himself and Sasha. It was all too much for him sometimes. With that use of strength, his face fell to the floor again, out for the count.

Shujin

The door was opened, and a large shadow covered the floor from the doorway. In the doorway stood the young man in his black cloak. "Now now...." He grinned. "What did Shujin do?..." He looked at Lazarus on the ground, seeing that situation was under control. He had heard everything the Nero had said. "You got something to say about me? Mannequin face?" He stared him down.

[Demous]

Sayuri Takashi

Sayuri thinks for a second, "Fair enough... We should probably find a place pretty easily. And don't worry I have some money so we can probably have a couple months right off the bat," she looks at Ariel, "I can see how that would be weird. Go to sleep as one wake up as another. Let's see a decent sized two bedroom apartment is all we probably need... Let's start hunting!"

@t2wave

[Silver Fox]

Prince
Fiore || Balsam Village || Train Station

@Caits @YipeeXD @CirusArvennicus@Lugubrious

Prince's ears twitched as he listened to the useless chatter before watching as Lazarus got enough energy to start complaining. The feline knew it was a poison, but that didn't stop him from wacking the man upside the head and knock him out to shut him up. He calmly did it too as he smiled brightly toward the others.

"Please try to keep the voice and stress levels to a minimum. It's bad for the sickly." Prince said cheerfully before carrying Lazarus toward the train station.

"Galuna Poison is named after Galuna Island, a island supposedly haunted by ghosts after human flesh. It was named after it because it supposedly originally was made there by demons using a special venom inflicted by a creature called a Manticore. Or so the legend goes. It was probably just from a plant and was just named after Galuna because it's a deadly poison." he answered Nero's question.

"My magic should be enough to keep him breathing back to the Guild. But he needs proper herbs to counteract the poison in his stomach." The feline man explained as his stride was quick, purple rose in hand to continually relieve the pain and stress from the Phoenix Wing member.

This was going to make him really hungry. Great. He had hoped they would have run into a proper enemy but it seems this opponent just likes playing with them instead.

"I don't have all the proper herbs to fully create a antidote. Does your Guild have a medical expert?" Prince asked Sasha, keeping the same calm smiling face but did seem a little more serious than he so far usually was. Gingerly throwing Lazarus so the white haired boy rested on Prince's shoulder as he went and bought some tickets.

[twave]

Ariel

"Yeah. This is only my third magic I've been able to get so I'm kind of still learning how it works. Water came first and I don't even know how. I almost burned down the house when I got fire. That was pretty scary. Thankfully I kind of know what to expect now so..." Following after Sayuri she manages a light laugh. "Well it's a good thing you have something to cover it because I don't have much at the moment. Need to get some jobs at Phoenix Wing that I can actually do."

Ariel was not exactly well versed with using magic. And seemingly getting new magic from nowhere didn't help. "I'm going to have to follow your lead because I've only been here for a few hours. I'm already lost."

@Demous

[MarshiestMallow]

Sasah

Sasha sighed heavily, deciding she hated that people keep on telling her to calm down. Why? Others were allowed to freak out, but she couldn't? Sasha thought she had been holding up well on everything. Yes, perhaps lately things had pushed her over the edge. And she was tired of secrets, tired of being thrown into the deep end and expected to stay afloat.

She managed to keep her mouth shut, recognising that she was tired, and worried. As Prince hit lazarus over the head, Sasha sighed, slightly put off, "How can he be so Niave?" she wondered to herself outloud, shaking her head, taking her wrist back from Trinity. "Thank you, but..." And then Shujin appeared, and Sasha flinched.

Had anyone else been near their compartment? She didn't know. She looked to Prince as he asked about the guild, if they had a proper healer. "I..I don't know. There's been so many new people. And things have been so hectic. If there's any proper healer, anyting close to it, it would be Jarvis. Or maybe Rose. What do we need, though? What herbs?"

[Lugubrious]

Somewhere in the Desert

The obliteration of Bert's snake column by Lucas, as impressive as it was, formed only one step in Bert's plan. By sacrificing an artifice of his spells, he had forced Lucas to play his hand. The implausibility of the idea of a multi-bodied water monster using ash magic and destruction magic went either unheeded or purposefully ignored: now, he knew the general shape all but one of his foes' powers. Bert glanced at the remaining wizard, the girl clad in white, and jammed a finger upward to summon a series of spikes beneath her. Just like that, the final set of cards lay on the table; even as Amaya propelled herself his way, he drew smug satisfaction from having found her to be an ice wizard. With Lucas still on the ground, Nolan indisposed, and Fleo stuck in a wall, Bert was able to devote his full attention to Amaya as she approached. Moving his hands into a defensive pose, Bert summoned a curved barrier of sand directly in front of him only a moment before Amaya made contact. At the touch of her fist, ice spread out and encapsulated the structure, allowing the force of her punch to shatter it into pieces and expose Bert to attack. With most of her momentum spent on her technique, however, she left herself open. “Not good enough, monster! Supine Sidewinder!” This time, a smaller snake column of sand appeared, shooting directly from Bert's fingertips. It hit Amaya with carrying force rather than impact force, intended to put distance between the Ice Dragon Slayer and Kalahari Bert. If Amaya reacted quickly enough, however, she could prevent herself from being thrown back to the Sand Tumult below.

Meanwhile, Fleo succeeded in pulling herself from her sand tower, after which she couldn't stop herself coughing and gasping for air. “Any longer and I mighta suffocated,” she grumbled aloud, and looked up at where Bert was in the process of blasting Amaya. With no thought for teamwork, -an area of fighting she rather lacked in- or moving to a less-exposed area, the dusty woman climbed onto her tower and declared, “Shinkuhakai!“ She began to reel on of her hands back, as if filling up an enormous syringe, charging a Vacuum Rupture.

Nero – Balsam Village

Neither Sasha's diminutive stature or her angry look evoked further sympathy from Nero. He snickered at her rather pathetic outburst and, knowing that Sasha had turned her back to him and rationale alike, was happy to forget his in-progress rebuttal. Still, although he felt no compassion for the mage clad in white, he couldn't suppress intrigue at Lazarus's situation. Watched at all times, wasn't me, wasn't shoe man. A sickness curse woulda been easy, but getting physical poison inside him? That must have been some trick. Try as he might, Nero could not remember for the life of him if Lazarus had eaten or drank anything during the train ride. Soon after, Trinity joined Sasha—no big surprise there. One of the reasons that guild goons like them used to look down on others was, after all, the cloying attention they gave to one other. The minstrel's comment, surprisingly, struck a nerve with Nero, not because it wounded his pride but that he'd heard it before. “Always how I look,” he whined, “Puppet this and wax that. No creativity.” He held his arms up in a gesture of helplessness as Trinity suggested with flair that the sudden illness could be conquered by the power of love. “Now why didn't I think of that?”[/color]

Prince, meanwhile, revealed a trove of knowledge about Galuna Island. Haunted? Nero mused. Manticores? Love 'em! His near-fatal encounter with a polymorphed Ginger had not been forgotten. And deadly poisons. “Neat place! When's the field trip?” He joked to himself, neither serious nor expecting a response since Lazarus had arisen from his poisoned stupor to rage weakly at Trinity of all people. “Hey now, I'm the one you get mad at.” Before the angelic man could turn his anger Nero's way, however, he slipped into the numb relief of unconsciousness.

A voice from the doorway caused Nero to look over his shoulder. He broke out into a wide smile to see Shujin in the flesh, and full of wrath to boot. Finally, there was something he could properly deal with. The dark mage pivoted around fully, so that he was facing Shujin head on, and stuffed his hands into his pockets. “Shoe Chin! I was just talkin' about ya. Thought maybe ya had something to do with Lazarus's condition—you were ready to spear him earlier. Could be wrong, though. Who cares? I'm not out for justice. But I'm gonna say whatever I want. If you've got something to prove, well, all ya need to do is knock me over.” Nero placed his feet together and held his arms out wide, arrayed like a balancer and daring Shujin to hit him. “Should be pretty easy, I'm darned skinny.” Tilting his head back, Nero stared at the sky, every inch of his being egging the metal wizard on. His smile remained wide, for no matter what Shujin chose, the genie won. If he backed down, Nero would be spared some pain, and if the dark mage took a dive, he'd have free reign to retaliate. “Go on, give me a big shove. Or even summon your cross and skewer me, I bet you'd feel great! Come on, be your sister's white knight!”

Jack, the Maiden of the Mist

Where: Pheonix Wing guild hall, central area
Interacting with: Rose, Jack, Elyse

"Another Jack? Guess that shouldn't be surprising. It is a common name for boys, isn't it?" She said before he picked her up. If she was surprised, she hid it well. Her face didn't even turn slightly red at the action. She did look troubled by the action however but she did not speak until her treatment was finished. At that point, she sat up and got off the table, walking over to where her daggers were laying on the floor before placing them into sheathes hidden beneath the bottom of her dress. She then turned to Jack, still looking troubled." You didn't have to pick us up. We were perfectly fine on the floor. But thank you all the same. As for food... we've never had a favorite. We've only ever eaten what we needed, nothing more."

Turning back to Rose, who was being watched by a scared looking Elyse, she bowed to the older woman.
"Thank you, Black Rose. We're sorry for what we've done." She said before turning back to Jack, ready to follow her new guild master.

Joshua Tamashii

Where: Train
Interacting with: Angelo

Well, that told him next to nothing. Angelo was rather vague in his description of his past. While there were some details that were apparent, all they said to Joshua was that Angelo was a coward and willing to discard someone as close as his mother for his own personal good. There might be something that he was missing that could change that fact, but for now, that was all he could view his current comrade as. Still, if he wasn't getting to many details, he wasn't going to give many either.
"As you can tell, I'm not from these lands. I was born in the far north a place where very few know magic or are capable of using it. We don't know which. I discovered my gift, my curse, at a young age and went about to train it. At some point, I left my village to train in lands outside of my home and I wound up in the lands east of here. It was there that I met my master who trained me for most of the last ten years of my life. He recommended I join a guild in this land and so I did." He said.

Amelia Averyonna

Where: Phoenix Wing guild hall, her room
Interacting with: Jarvis

"But I feel fine! My stomach hurts a bit but I've been through much worse then this." Amelia said, taking the chocolate but not eating it, looking a bit upset as her wings fell a bit. She didn't mind being cared for but babying was only something she liked on holidays and her birthday, and even then only very rarely. Right now was not one of those times. She stared up at Jarvis, her cherry red eyes defiant." I'm well enough to move around. Why do you worry about me so much? The other members are older but I've been through just as much and can hold my own with my spirits. Why do you only treat me specially though?"

Despite her words, she did appreciate knowing someone did care for her. She hated not knowing why Jarvis seemed to care for her so much though. She wanted to know and she felt she had the right to know.

Prince
Fiore || Balsam Village || Train Station

@Caits @YipeeXD @CirusArvennicus@Lugubrious

Prince listened as Sasha explained what or what little she knew about her fellow Guild Members. Not surprising, there were quite a few newbies around but apparently, according to her, not many of the older members knew much about it. Another tally in why Karn probably shouldn't be in this Guild but Wizard's who were actual proper healers were pretty rare. That's what doctors were usually for after all. Yet it wasn't unsurprising someone like Jarvis at least knew something so maybe that would enough to keep the white clad man stable.

"We need Magnius, Yellow Dock, Echinacea, some Catnip and maybe some Basil, Honeu Milk and Garlic. As well as Nicortinfina. If we had caught this before, I'd make him vomit, but by now it's already absorbed and in his bloodstream so now that would make him sicker. Which is why he isn't allowed to move around at this point and be stressed out. Might have to use additional magic if he starts throwing a fit again to put him into a more restful sleep. Most of the herbs required can be easily required in Magnolia. The other two are a little more rare. Mhmm if Karn was around, I could just get him and use some Eastern Chimera saliva." Prince explained, listing off the required herbs he needed before pausing as Nero was pretty much antagonizing Sasha's supposed brother.

Normally, he would have stepped between them, but for now he didn't have much time to deal with bickering males. A life was at stake of course. It was indeed odd, he didn't really remember Lazarus actually eating or drinking anything. Yet, he supposed there could of been some sort of magic to assist in this little delivery.

Handing everyone a ticket, Prince then strided onto the Train before setting Lazarus down, laying down on some seats while letting the white head lay on the feline's lap. Body slightly slouched over as his shoulder uncomfortably pressed against the train roof.

"You don't happen to know if your guild has all of that in stock do you?" Prince asked Sasha once again.

@Joshua Tamashii

If their is one thing you need to remember is that magic is a gift not a curse. And I'm going to let you know what I aid was the truth but if you want more information about me you need to be more specific." Angelo said sitting next to him knowing it would take a while for them to get to the resort
