### Karn #### Fiore || Kabo || City Outskirts #####Interacting: Mithera Karn chuckled a little as his words were either used to be teased on his wording, or taken the incorrect way. Humming a little thoughtfully at her words before looking to the dragon. **"Well maybe, if she does thing I probably don't agree with. But that doesn't mean I want to stop talking. So I don't mind finding you and taking a little visit. Not everyday you meet someone with similar magic."** he chirped cheerfully and optimistically. --- ### Wizard X #### Fiore || Kabo || Council Library #####Interacting: Penny, Mayt, Melina The wizard raised their hands in a dramatic 'backing off' motion and hummed as Jamie interfered and the fire wizard glared. **"Alright alright no need to get hostile. Just was checking for any serious damage to the brain or magical flow within her. It be quite poor if the firebird lost the flame."** they mused before looking to the blood wizard with a hum. **"Grane uses quite a bit of techniques that could easily lead to death, or crippled. But she seems fine enough at least. But all their injuries really need to be looked at, letting them bleed about will just delay recovery."** the wizard mused before moving over to Mayt and examining him.

Lazarus simply smiled at the blood mage, wiping the blood from his face, before laughing. "That's adorable." He coughed. "If that is what you see heaven and angels as then I feel sorry for you, wrapped up in a fake world inside your head. Angels are merely figures entrusted with powers from the heavens above to cast judgement on sinners. There's nothing about us being divines." He smirked a little. "I have done horrible things, a lot worse things than you will ever witness. Don't push me friend. Don't underestimate me." He adjusted his coat before looking back at her. "You should really change your attitude you know..." He said in a concerned voice,"... or one of us may be sent for you sooner than you'd of hoped."" He smiled at her as if to apologize for the bad air between them, before turning to Sasha. Beaming at her. She had defended him as a friend. "It seems you aren't as hard nails as you let off," he touched her chin. "...now about that date, dinner... and then you may see what my room actually looks like." He chuckled, before realizing what had just said. He covered his mouth, and his face comically turn bright red. "No! No! Not like that... I would never do things like that with you... I mean.... I would, you're a beautiful woman, but.... I mean... Eugh... AH!!!!!!!!!!" He buried his face in his hands. He brought it back up. "Hi my name is Lazarus." There were progressions between the masked wizard, and the guild. Lazarus stepped in, now calm. "Now listen here masked magician." He paused. "Are you on our side? Or do you attempt to stop us? Answer that, and let that be that." He put a hand out to stop people kicking off like himself a few minutes ago.

Penny was annoyed with people talking about her. She sighed, and let James do whatever he was going to do. She trusted her guild mates more then she trusted strangers, and she had always despised being a patient. But there wasn't much that she could do. "No offense, or actually, offense, but I don't know you, I don't trust you, so you could simply be screwing with me, instead of helping" she said to the strange wizard, her voice was weak, but she still managed to put distrust in it. ---- Sasha rose when Lazarus addressed the two mages, just in case anything was going to happen, not that she thought Lazarus would do anything. When he turned to her, and smiled, practically beamed, Sasha couldn't help but smile in return. When he brought up dinner, and then seemed set on embarrassing himself, Sasha couldn't help but giggle. "You're adorable" she said when he seemed to gain control of himself, and addressed the strange wizard

"**Hmmm...**" Trinity was thoughtfully quiet at Sasha's explanation. "**Another dimension? I feel like I've heard something like that... in song or poem.**" She gave it more thought, but gave up on it in the end. It might come to her later. Penny began to move! Trinity moved to her side, helping push Tuxedo Mask aside. "**I told you, you're not mysterious if you hang out, you dolt.**" She smacks him upside the head with an open palm before kneeling beside Penny. "**Hey there, girl. You look a little beat up. At least you're tough, huh?**" She smiles warmly at the girl, reaching to stroke her hair. "**Seems like Phones is fine. Your... uh... our, guildmaster ran into him, it would seem.**"

Masahiko watches Jamie for awhile before responding, "Whats in there better be *really* damn good. I will need something irrifutable to bring to the King. He had a lot of faith in Angelica. It also doesn't really help that I'm not exactly his favorite," he takes the the papers and begins flipping through them. He stops and reads full pages several times, "Hmm... well there is nothing here on that particular mage but, a lot of this could be useful. As for the info on the Council itself... I can work with it though," he looks Jamie in the eye, "This isn't going to help with the situation of magic from a political standpoint. The opponents will fight harder especially with me now being the Head. I assume you are aware that I'm not exactly liked up at the Castle. A couple of friends but other then that it's difficult for me up there." "Hmm... There are two things I will absolutely need for this to work howeve. I'll need Carrie and Grane. Grane is the more important of the two. His magical knowledge is something the Council needs. I need Carrie mainly because she is much better at politics then I am. Also her knowledge of our doccuments will be an asset though, I can live without that there are others I can count on. Oh and I'll be taking the Lacrima. We do still have an amazing prison. Besides if we release them within the cells they can't use their magic. Angelica also doesn't have enough supporters in the prison area to get her out. The others I can contain."

### Wizard X #### Fiore || Kabo || Council Library ##### Interacting: Lazuras, Penny, Mayt, Trinity As the masked wizard examined the unconscious boy, they did glance to the angel as he made quite a little scene. Clapping their hands together, they parted them to form some white sparkly words reading 'Smooth' before closing the hands and reopening them again to form 'Remember Protection' before waving the words off as they turned to smoke and continue with whatever they were doing. As the light colored boy went up to her, much calmer then before and asked a question. The wizard tapped their chin with a soft hum. **"I am yet I cannot. Quite tricky really. I quite like you little Phoenix's, despite how much frogs I had to save from falling rubble and having to listen to the nagging Council whine days on end about you. If you were actually here to slaughter your way to Edolas, perhaps I would have a problem, but otherwise, I would encourage to save your little friend. Despite many possible outcomes and possibilities that could happen. Buuuuuuuut perhaps I think too much and jumping in gunho like you do isn't always bad. Helping you too much gives me a nasty hinge on progress, but you don't really need it either. So win win."** they replied before gripping the offered hand. It was a firm strong one, and it glowed briefly with green magic, but instead of any pain it would feel warm and even bringing the body to a bit more energized. Letting the hand go wizard looked to the fire wizard that stubbornly looked distrustfully to them. Chuckling a the wizard hummed and waved and bowed a little. **"My dear Firebird, if I wanted to screw you, I would have. But in your state that's almost on the border of Necrophilia. That's just icky."** They chuckled before getting a smack upside the head, but almost didn't seem to feel it. Since they dramatically draped a arm over their head. **"Awe but Little Harp it's not my fault. Masahiko loves ruining my mysterious good atmosphere by keeping me waiting. It's so mean of him really."** They said with a chuckle before kneeling down beside Mayt and whispering a few words, finger tips touching the wounds and glowing green. The injuries closing up and at least sealing up the blood before the wizard hummed and stood up. Stretching out their hand a little and wiggling the wrist.

Jamie sighed heavily, "I planned on returning the prison Lacrima to you in anycase. I have other information. You know that I have been monitoring the fluctuation of magical energy, and recently, just before My member disappeared, magical energy in Fiore has been slowly decreasing. Nothing that is cause for alarm, but it could be. That's the other reason I need that book, Makahilo, if it's depleting, magical energy could be moving into Edolas. There needs to be balance between the two universes, you know that. I need to go there, not just to retrive Wes, but to search this anomila." Jamie held out a hand, and Jarvis, anticipating her, handed over a Lacrima, "this is a recording Lacrima. It has Angelica's plans, with Tim and Ted, as well as with people I know belong to dark guilds. What you do with it is your own choice. And I you Re going to use both Carrie and Grane, then you need to surrender, so we can access the book" ---- Penny looked to Trinty, and managed a smile, relieved that she was alright. And even though Phones was a pain, she was relieved too that he was alright. "Good. At least the dolt didn't get killed" she said, letting out a soft sigh, "thank you" She stiffened, which caused pain in her side, as the masked wizard continued to speak, and what he said. She gathered what magical energy she could muster, and formed a ball of fire. She threw it at the masked wizard, knowing it wasn't much, nor would it be likely to land, but it made her point "not in a million yesrs, bucko."

####Mayt ####Council Building Library Mayt groaned as he started to wake up, he was half numb, and what parts of him that weren't numb made him glad the rest of him was. He slowly managed to move his hand to his head and rub it gently, grabbing the book case he had been holding on to before he blacked out and sitting up. He scrunched his eyes shut a couple times, trying to get them to refocus properly. Once he had regained his senses he looked at the figure standing by him, he didn't recognize him at all. **"Who the... Hell are you?"** His chest argued with every breath he took, and he unintentionally put his hand to his chest, as if trying to calm it. **"Screw that electricity bitch."** The feeling in his legs started to come back with painful pins and needles, not to mention the aches. He rose his eyebrow as Penny thew a small ball of fire the masked man's way, but chose not to question it. --- ####Melina ####Council Building Library Melina smiled as Lazarus tried to tell her off, and crossed her arms. **"*True* angels are supposedly immortal and have serious power, correct? I do believe that qualifies them as 'Divine'."** She chuckled. **"And if you've done things worse than I, then I must give you a medal and become your friend. Because to do atrocities even I have never seen makes you a Demon, dear, not an angel sent from heaven. And who ever said anything about underestimating you? I've never estimated you anything. And Jamie has no reason to send one of you for me, at least not in protection of the guild. I'm a much a threat as a pebble on a place you'll never be right now."** --- ####Mithera ####Kabo Outskirts Mithera sighed. **"She does a lot of things no one agrees with, to put it simply."** She paused for a moment, indicating she was now replying to the other subject. **"And while even occasionally meeting would be nice, I travel a lot with Melina, not always in Fiore, so that's not a viable option. Regardless, I'm certain we'll come across each other again at least once more. Melina has a way of ending up in some place affect Phoenix Wing somehow. At least by what I think has happened."** She shifted slightly. **"I can take you back whenever you're willing and able to climb onto my back again as well."**

"**God, you're creepy, too?**" Trinity huffs (playfully) at the The Masked Avenger, before a soft grin plays at her features. Well... teasing *was* fun. "**Aah, Penny, if this guy worries you, I can keep your bed for you. No creepers'll get past me.**" She giggles, winking at the Fire wizard.

### Karn #### Fiore || Kabo || City Outskirts ##### Mithera The boy gave a disappointed pout at Mithera's words at not meeting often and paying visits, but soon brightened as the dragon spoke about how she was pretty sure they would meet again. That would be nice, Karn enjoyed the company of another Wizard sorta like him, yet different. Then again, he enjoyed a lot of company in general. Some he tried to make as many friends as humanly possible. Now, it of course didn't always turn out but he still tried his best to be friendly and out a smile on someone's face. **"Then I'll be looking foreword to it."** Karn chirped happily before nodding at the offer of returning to the others. Sure, it was fun sitting here and talking with Mithera, but he still was concerned for the others. Moving closer to the dragon, he climbed onto the back, positioning his leg carefully. **"Yes please, if you don't mind. Maybe then I could meet Melina as well."** he said happily. --- ### Wizard X #### Fiore || Kabo || Council Library ##### Interacting: Mayt, Penny, Trinity As the fire wizard threw a small fireball, the wizard raised a hand and poked it with a index finger. **"Steam."** they murmured before the little flame burst into steam and the masked figure chuckled in amusement. **"Oh don't worry, firecrackers like you aren't my cup of tea. Too spicy."** The wizard chuckled before looking to the stirring boy. **"A wizard. Try not to move too fast now, the magic isn't instant where you can go leaping about just quite yet. Though you can probably walk soon at least. Though I suggest to remain sitting and taking it slow in stretching out those muscles. It wasn't very nice of Grane to hit a down man. Tsk tsk on him."** they said, suggesting to the boy it wasn't just Carrie who did this to him before standing looking to Trinity. **"Little Harp, you'll start to confuse her. Her mind probably isn't up to full speed yet to get everything."** They chuckled before pausing a little and giving a soft hum. **Oh dear you'll finally get your wish. Something quite important has come up. Location of Dark Guild Warlock doesn't come by very often you know. Tata, little Phoenix's."** The masked wizard chuckled, as they crossed their arms, before disappearing in a bunch of letters as a Teleportation spell was cast.

Penny pressed her uninjured hand to her eyes, "gods, I can protect my own bed, thanks" she said, wearily, wonders be just how this had come about. She sigjed, and looked to James "I doubt I'll get an infection. My body runs too hot, and the little germies will get incinerated in anycase" she was more worried about the number of cuts, knowing several would scar. She wasn't a vain person, or she didn't think so, but still. "My arm and side hurt. And my thoughts are groggy" it seemed better to focus on her injuries, then what may or may not be teasing

Masahiko takes the prison lacrima and nods, "I can see what our researchers have on this. Either way I'll see what I can do to help. I do have one request to you as a friend," he moves closer and continues quietly, "When you go make sure someone keeps a close watch on Sayuri. We both know the nature of Edolas and what it could do to someone. Especially if you meet someone who you shouldn't be able to." He turns and walks over to the other mages stowing the two lacrima, "Could one of you hand me the book? I believe this... cooprative effort can now come to an end. Once the fight with Grane is finished I'll unlock to book," He turns back to Jamie, "Now I just hope your dark little friend and Grane don't end up killing each other. I'm pretty sure we both need them."

[James] "You'd be surprised at how powerful magical illnesses can be, especially in regards to fire. As for the soreness and such, not much I can do." I puts the arm down again and lays Penny on her back once more. "Well, there is one thing I can do; STOP moving around. You're making it awfully difficult for your body to repair itself, even with my magic's help." [Damian] Dismissing his blades, Damian looks over each of the others and growls softly in anger. Lizard lips wouldn't get away with it, but for now he'd have to let it lie. "Master Jamie, this feels like it was a touch too easy."

Penny grumbled "laying down hurts and it makes me look like a weakling just laying here" she said in frustration. She was resigned to laying down, as she figured it would hurt too much to try and get back up. But laying down hurt her side, stretching it and causing pain. She brought her legs up, and that seemed to help, relaxing the muscles in her side. "I don't like feeling useless" --- Anger flashed through Jamie "do you think I'd let anything happen to any of my members in Edolas? I know what can happen there, but they can all handle themselves. If I baby them, they wouldn't be Phoenix Wing members. I won't let anything happen to your daughter, Masahiko" He looked to Damian "easy?" She looked to Penny, to Mayt, the tired Sasha and Lazarus, the damage to the library and guild building "then I'd hate to see hard" she sighed again, "sometimes Damian, you just have to take. A leap of Fairh"

####Mayt ####Council Library **"At least revel in the fact you could probably walk if you had to right now."** Mayt spoke in Penny's general direction, picking up on of his legs and letting it flop back to the ground. **"Mine are still waking up."** He bit his lip and looked about. **"Actually... Where the hell's my sword? I need that."** He crossed his arms, looking somewhat grumpy about it not being on the floor where he left it. --- ####Mithera ####Kabo City Outskirts Mithera watched Karn climb onto her back, and nodded once he had. **"Just kick me like you would a horse if I get too high for you to breath, I'm not going to risk flying straight over the city again."** She shifted herself side to side, getting used to how he was sitting before standing up and taking a half step back. She spread he wings and took two bounding steps before she was airborne, flapping heavily to get herself higher. She climbed fairly rapidly into the sky, and flew upwards until she was no longer within range of even most magical bows. She circled the city a bit, dropping lower should Karn kick her sides, trying to find the council building again. Once she did, she started slowly descending, opting out of just diving straight to it like she normally would. She alighted in front of the building, and growled at any nearby Rune Knights that show any indication of wanting to attack her before lying on her belly so Karn could get off. **"Everyone's in the library, mostly."**

"**Aah, she didn't catch my advances. Such is...**" She poses, with the back of one hand to her forehead and the fingertips of the other lightly touching her chest. "**Love!**" She sighed, dropping the pose, and turned to Penny to shush her. "**Hush, hush, now. You did well enough to survive, judging by your wounds. I only wish I could have done *something* to keep you from such a state. Such is _life_.**" She shook her head, and then her attention was snagged by a nearby comment. She spoke in unison with Jamie, "**_easy_? I aughta box you...**" The guy must have been delusional.

### Karn #### Fiore || Kabo || City Outskirts >>> Council Library ##### Interacting: Mithera, Trinity, Mayt, Penny, James. Sorta Jamie, Masahiko, Sasha, Lazuras, Melina Karn nodded at her words as the dragon took to the skies, flying pretty high where the air was thinner. It probably should bother him, but thanks to some training with high altitudes, he was alright for the most part. As they landed outside the Council Building, Mithera growling at some Rune Knights who had noticed them and were a bit too scared to confront a dragon. Sliding over, he waved cheerfully to the Rune Knights before turning to Mithera as she spoke mostly everyone was in the library. With a bright smile, the blonde boy wrapped his arms around the dragon's neck in a friendly little huggle. **"Thank you Mythy! You're the best!"** Karn cheered before letting go and heading into the building, walking backwards and waving to the dragon excitedly. **"See you soon!"** he chirped before turning and walking in. Goodbyes were always so final, so it felt better saying something else. As he walked into the library, Rune Knights glaring to him but were more nervous with a dragon at their doorsteps, he spotted most of the Phoenix Wing members, except for Maddox and Sayuri. A good amount of them he had met, but he hadn't really spoken to the light colored man, the black clothed woman, or the platinum blonde short haired man. Still, at seeing them and seeing Trinity he cheered and bounded over, causing him to momentarily fall flat on his face again for going faster then just walking and hopping around like some excited bunny rabbit. However, the face plant didn't seem to deter him as he stood instantly up and continued on until he huggles Trinity, arms wrapped tightly around the white haired woman. **"Triny!!!! I'm so glad you're okay!"** Karn cheered happily, glad she didn't appear hurt. **"Hi GM! Hi other people I don't really know yet!"** he greeted happily. As he looked to Mayt, who was quite injured, before smiling and walking over to him. **"Hi Mayty! Are you okay? I guess not but.."** Karn said before just hugging the boy as well, being more gentle with it however and quickly letting go. **"Do you need bandages, ...w-w-water, or milk? Or maybe you just need rest..."** he said in a bit of a faster pace before looking to Penny and James and moving to her with a happy smile. **"PenPen! JJ! Hi again! You don't look too well either, PenPen.. You okay? Do you need anything. I'm sorry I lost the book. I tried."** Karn said in the same fast manner before pouting, emerald eyes tearing up at the thought of his failure.

###Magnolia### The cloaked woman brought her arm over her eyes when the bright light flashed through the Guild Hall. After taking a single step back, the warning echoed loud in her ears. She flipped her hood back, revealing a young, tan woman with short silver hair, big yellow eyes, and a scar across the bridge of her nose. She covered her ears in an effort to reduce the noise, baring her teeth in an angry scowl. "Shut up!" she shouted at the alarm system, walking towards the bar counter. She peered over the side, checking if someone was hiding behind it and finding nothing. _They really are gone,_ she thought to herself, keeping her hands over her ears. She walked back to the center of the Guild Hall and took a final look around. _They can't be gone forever. I'll just check back every day until they return._ She walked back out of the building, removing her hands from her ears as she went outside. Several people were watching her, again. After all, it was impossible for passerby not to notice the broken doors and the obnoxious alarm. She paused, staring at the people for a moment, before walking towards them. "Go ahead and report me," she told them sarcastically, shoving a larger man out of her way as she walked down the street. The poor man was practically thrown aside, crashing into several wooden barrels and toppling them. The young woman carried on her way, flipping her hood back up to conceal herself again.

Penny sighed, "At least you can breath easy, Mayt" She said, looking to Trinity when she said about doing something. "My job was to keep you, the dolt, and Karn safe. I did that, to the best of my abilities at least. I'm glad you weren't there when the big lizard freak came. It would have been a whole lot worse. He's a coward, hitting someone when their back is turned" She said in anger. But when Karn rambled on in his way, she let out a breath, and tried to smile, "I'm fine. You did a good job, Karn" She said. "And I think we have the book, but I"m not sure"

Grane stood there with his arms folded in front of him while listening to Maddox and watched him teleport. He could of followed Maddox with his own teleport magic to battle in a extremely high speed battle, but decided to wait and stand to see how strong the wizard was and how strong his hit was. He felt Maddox flash beside him and endured a blow from his kick which caused the ground the crack as Grane stood there. "Mmm, that kind of movement almost felt like the Onikwon-Do style of martial arts, but somewhat different. Either way, I'm going to feel that in the tomorrow. If you were trying to hit me somewhere that was suppose to be a weak point then you are mistaken. You can probably already see that I'm not a human like yourself. Likewise, I overheard some of your comrades call me a lizard, but they are also mistaken. With a hide this strong, I'm more compared to that of a dragon! Now Protector of Phoenix Wing, let's see how fast you can go!" Grane teleported as he zipped around the large space. "If you plan on using attacks like those then you better have some energy to do it hundreds of times more." He continued to flash around the room to see what else the wizard had in his arsenal. --- Wes continued marching through the hallways beneath the Council as he tried checking for something in a distant room. "You can follow, but I don't know how much I'll need since it shouldn't require to many hands." He said hoping the room he was going to was still in tact unlike the building outside.
