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

[HeartlessAngel]

Phoenix Wing Guild Hall Vincent's eyes darted between the two, and felt that uncomfortable feeling return. Of course he had a conscience...who could kill without a conscience? Just because he acted like he enjoyed it, he didn't. He acted like a sadist, because he didn't trust people. He wanted to keep people away from him. He had always been alone... But then why did he always feel lonely? He scowled, and turned away from them, closing his eyes. "I do what I need to survive. Nothing more, nothing less. Sure, I could stop killing. But then what? Join your happy family of a Guild? Be accepted, and let my past sins be absolved? Sorry, but people are rotten by nature. They won't look past the fact that I've killed people. I'll be judged, just like when I was a-" He cut himself off there quickly, cursing himself. He had almost done the cliche 'Oh wow is me, here is my tragic past' spiel. So what if he wasn't chosen by the adults, while all the other children got adopted? So what if they looked at him with disdain, while they beamed at the others? He didn't care anymore, he wasn't that sad little child anymore... "Maybe I want information, but that's just to ensure my survival in case I ever meet up with any of your Guild. I'm a survivor, that's what I do." He glared at the Guild Master and Rutger. He wasn't sure what his goal was now. All of his facades had been seen through, it felt like the Guild Master could see into his heart itself. It made him feel vulnerable...Why was he still here?

[The Irish Tree]

Jayce, still hanging on the wall, took a breath of relief once he heard Karn call out that they were alright down there. With no real reason to be down there anymore, he climbed as far up as he could on his own, and, once he reached the arm, a crunching sound emerged from his arm before it radiated a light hum, and within a moment he kicked off the wall and massive gusts of wind swirled around his forearm, pushing him back near the hole. Still in the air, he aimed downward and propelled himself up with another gust. Once he was on solid ground again, he hummed for a moment before starting to walk back to the entrance. "...Can't just have him save my bacon and not say thanks."

[Zeroth]

@HeartlessAngel @Caits

Earthland - Phoenix Wing Guild Hall Rutger Artz

"People are rotten by nature?" Rutger said in disbelief. "How are they rotten for judging you for your crimes? You're afraid of being judged?" The traveler clenched a fist in sudden, hot anger. "Are you not aware that "murder" is considered a crime for a reason? Being judged? Of course you'll be judged! That's how society works, criminals are judged and punished for their crimes! To say that people are rotten because of that?! Aren't you just playing the victim, and refusing to take responsibility for what you've done!?" As much as he normally held it back, in the rush of his fury he couldn't stop the black flames from sizzling on top of his clothes. They wouldn't burn him, the caster, and it was only a shimmer of power tight around his body, but the heat was palpable even from a distance. "How many rotten people have you actually met in your lifetime!? Count them!" Rutger demanded. "There are more than 17 million people in Fiore alone, much less the entire world! Have you met every one of them?!"

Karn Fiore || Kabo || Outside the Council Building Interacting: Jayce, Trinity

Karngave loud deep purrs at the nuzzles and attention he was receiving from the fellow wizard, his long whiskers twitching slightly before his ears perked a little as Trinity spoke and he thought for a moment. "Well maybe, but I'm still worried for the others. We should probably wait until the remaining members of Phoenix Wing get together, so everyone can get home together." The beast said before looking to the building, sniffing a little and instinctevly growling, fur bristling a little. "Plus... Something smells... Not right." he said, unsure what it exactly is, but his Chimera instincts screamed of danger. However, when Karn spotted Jayce leaving the building, the beast bounded over, transforming into his human form and cheerfully hugging the taller man. "Yay your okay!!" he cheered.

Edolas

Edo-Karn

Edo-Karn narrowed their eyes at Edo-Penny's words but didn't say anything further. They weren't about to trust dogs of that bitch, but on the other hand Edo-Karn didn't really know where these two came from. There wasn't too much info on either of these two other than their ranks. Almost everyone in Edolas had good reason to hate her, so they could be telling the truth. But they could be lying as well either under her order of for their own gain. So in essence, in Edo-Karn's opinion, fuck politics.

[j8cob]

Maddox

Wait a minute... Maddox looked over to the Magic Council building, a serious expression on his face. The hell is that? His red eyes went back to Grane now. "Grane... the doom you were talking about wasn't the building, was it?" he asked, though he already knew the answer. His eyes went to Damien now. "Our fight may not be over." With that he let out a sigh and reached toward his jacket pocket. After a moment of feeling around, Maddox realized he didn't have his jacket. It was in the aquifer, likely destroyed by all the flames. "And I could really use a smoke right now..." The red-haired mage let out another sigh before dashing into the building at high-speed. He quickly found Penny and Mayt and decided to stop next to them. "I hope you two are feeling better," he said, his voice clearly sounding rushed. "Because you two should probably hurry." "The day is not yet won." His tone was deadly serious and his expression was one of concern. Maddox gave them a quick, two finger salute as his farewell before running deeper into the collapsing building. He quickly caught up with Masahiko, slowing down his pace to match the Council Member's to allow conversation. "What is it?" Maddox asked him, giving the Council Member a stern gaze. "Grane mentioned it would be our doom. What exactly were you hiding?"

Edo-Maddox

The leader of White Hydra looked over his shoulder. Beatrix was still unconscious, laying on the Legion's back. It would be best if she stayed out for a little while longer, he thought, returning his gaze to the direction they were flying. The Legion let out a roar as it crested another cliff. They were now just outside the Royal City. As long as those three do their job, then this should be icing to the cake. The Legion let out another roar as it flew low over the rooftops of the Royal City, looping around the outskirts of the city before closing in on the castle.

[CitrusArms]

Outside the Magical Council

Karn suddenly got up and dashed off after saying something cryptic. "Smells wrong...?" She thought about it for a moment before focusing on sensing magic. It didn't take her long to notice the ominous sensation coming from the crumbling council building. "Geh, did they capture something within?" She saw Maddox run inside, at least, so she knew she could relax. He could teleport people out, so between him and Penny, things within should be... mostly fine? She should ensure things go smoothly out here. She approached Grane, then, making no move to draw an arrow against him. "So, you want to tell me what's going on? What were you keeping inside?"

Edolas

Edo-Trin has herself a seat at the bar, watching Edo-Sasha with a soft smile. "Hmmm... How about aaaa..." She drummed on the the counter as she thought, "Fist of the Demon King." She leaned forward on the counter then, propping her head up in her hand.

[YipeeXD]

Lazarus He listened, before shaking his head. "That is me. Right there." He pointed to his counter part. "That is me without magic, clearly. What is the point if I cannot place faith.... in 'myself'?" He grinned, still siding with his counterpart. Edo-Lazarus He sighed as Pen spoke. "Pen, please dont incorrectly inform these people what we are asking of them. We don't need their magic. We just need their man power. An army only goes so far. A group of strong hearted family members, are much more likely to win taking on the queen. It is true, the kings heart has been blackened by the queen... but we cannot afford to let either live. It is too late for them now. They have passed beyond the point of no return." He lied, convincingly, seemingly angry at Pen, although it was just an act. He gave Pen a backhand across the face just to make it look real. "You say a book brought you here. Why is it you cannot return? Do you even know how?" He paused, referring to Earthland Sasha "Funny that." He smirked. "The queen is the closet thing this world has to holding onto memories of magic. She know exactly how that book brought you here, and why you cannot leave. I can guarantee you that that bitch knows how to send you home too." He sighed. "Unfortunately, I have no idea how to send you back." That was 100% true. His voice suddenly changed to desperation, and of regret. "You don't have to forgive the things we have done to the people of Edolas, but I am tired, of seeing the weak suffer in place of the strong. It makes my blood boil with rage. That is all I ask of you. After we are done, you'll never have to answer to anyone ever again." He paused. "It is for our world!" He clenched his fist, now angry with himself. "Why can we not come together at a time like this and defend our fellow man?!" He screamed out. He took his empire commanders pin from his cloak on his armour, and threw it to the ground, stamping on it. "I ask you as a citizen of Edolas now. Please join the rebellion." he was now silent.

[MarshiestMallow]

Sasha

Sasha took in a slow breath, clearly for patience and said "yes, Lazarus, he is you, but not you. The same way my counterpart in there is me, but not me. Why is he not apart of the guild in this world? It just sounds to me that while he is convincing, he is clearly trying to do this for his own gain. He said he has control of the kingdoms troops, correct? So why not just use them to over take the queen? Why come here, specifically, where we are, where its possible magic energy could be? You would never use other people for your own Gain, Lazarus, like this one is doing" She spoke softly, ignoring the others, wanting Lazarus to see what she was trying to say. She looked to Edolas Lazarus, and said, quite calmly, "I have theories on how. I believe that Lucy Heartfillia used magic...No. I will not share this theory with anyone not from my world, or who is not apart of this worlds Phoenix Wing. Taking down This Worlds Queen won't take us back, I know that much" She shook her head, tired of this act, tired of trying to figure out what people meant when they said things in this world. "If you were tired of seeing the weak suffer, you wouldn't be a commander of the army. You would have dropped out long ago. Please stop insulting our intelligence and lying. Please stop insulting my Lazarus by doing so"

Edo-Sasha

Edo-Sasha smiled, and began making the drink, and for the fun of it, made one for herself as well. It didn't take her long, and as she was making them, she listened for any signs of fighting outside, ready to step in if need be. She set the drinks down when done, returning to the other side of the counter, and sitting besides Edo-Trinity. "Enjoy!" She said with a smile.

Master Jamie

Master Jamie let this go on, simply leaning against the bar. It was clear that he wasn't worried that something would happen, and in any case, she was sure she would be able to handle it. She watched the two, with interests. Then just shook his head. ""I have only met three truly rotten people in my life, Vincent. So I'm curious to know what you consider rotten. I was an orphan too, you know. Judged because of the magic I wasn't yet able to control." He gave a shrug. "There are other ways of getting information then first hand, Vincent. I follow those that have magic, and what they do. Easy enough, when I have many sources. But I also make it a job, to do so in order to be informed for my guild." She sighed, and looked to Vincent, "If you know anything about this guild, you know we do not judge. We believe people can change, and we believe in each other. If you want to continue doing killings for people who do not have the guts to do it themselves, who are cowards and who are scum, then you can"

Edo-penny

Pen just sighed at edo-Lazarus's behavior, and shook his head. "Lazarus, you fool. Why do I ever let you talk? Put your pin back on, you dolt. We need the soldiers, or have you forgotten? They aren't worth it, a handful of people from a guild that causes more trouble then it's worth, against the royal army? The Army is more valuable to us. All we need from this lot, is information. And I have what I need now" Pen smiled, and started towards the Legion, "Come on Lazarus. I know what we need to do now" again, Pen rolled the Lacrima in his pocket. So simple. If magic couldn't survive in Edolas without a container, then Pen would just use the lacrima. There were plenty in the King's stores. Coming here was just an indulgence, and one Pen now sorely regretted. He had nothing here of any value, he saw that now. "Of course, Lazarus, you could stay here, while I go prepare some things" That would probably be better. Yes. Then he wouldn't have to explain why he wanted the Kings Lacrima. Ah, yes. Playing this right was the best thing. He smiled, "I'll just borrow the Legion to do so. Yes, that will be better"

Edo-Master Jamie

Constantly thinking, Edo-Jamie shifted through possible reasons why the two wished this, and just why it was going to be like this. He gave a sigh. Politics were a constantly changing and tiring game. "You aren't coming into my guild, Lazarus. We will accommodate you, but you shall not enter. I'd rather not have any royal lapdogs in my guild" Jamie looked to those of his guild, and the earthlanders. "You would indeed do well to remember, Earthlanders, that you aren't home. That you are in a world opposite to yours. And that things are not all the same. You cannot just assume you are the same as your edolas Counterparts. In any case, we have to discuss some things, away from the royal dogs. Let us go inside" Jamie said, looking to Mayat."it scares me too that two complete idiots could take control of Edolas. So. .Lets make sure that doesn't happen"

Penny

Penny laughed, and nodded "Yeah. Plenty of holes now" She said brightly, looking about them. "Just get out safe. I'll find him, and Sayuri and guide them out" She said, her flames flickering around her. "This just turned into one big mess, didn't it? At least we got the book" She said, before starting towards where Karn had said he had seen Sayuri. Tht was her best way of finding her, and if she came across Angelo, that would be all for the better. "Angelo! Sayuri!"

[Silver Fox]

Edolas

Karn Interacting: Edo-Jamie, Edo-Sasha, Edo-Trinity, Edo-Lazarus

Edo-Karn watched Lazarus unconvincingly as he ranted on his little speech. Although they felt some genuine emotion in his voice, he was a little to late to be trying to ask for help at such a convenient time. A convenient time when Earthlanders land here, instead of earlier where blood was being bled constantly from the poor citizens of Edolas. As Sasha spoke to the idiot Earthlander who blindly would follow a man who he didn't know only because he had the same face, then Edo-Pen leave in mild frustration with Lazarus. As Edo-Jamie gave the word for them to return inside, Edo-Karn glanced to Edo-Lazarus. "A royal lapdog could never understand what those lower than you have been through. Even if you did, you're a little too late." they said before turning away and walking after the others. At Edo-Jamie's words about the two idiots, the blonde scoffed. "It scares me that we may possibly be in a three-way power struggle and our guild is in the dead center of it. It would be quite nice if they tired out eachother first before we have to kick their ass," they grumbled before pausing as they spotted Edo-Sasha and Edo-Trinity at the bar. "Oh goodie gumdrops, we're dealing with a bunch of assholes and you two are having a good time. Good to know I'll be safe with you two in case shit hits the fan." Edo-Karn said sarcastically, but didn't sound angry over it, after all Edo-Sasha was quite the capable fighter, before looking to the Guild Master. "So, got a plan? A place to go you said right? Should some stay to babysit the Royal lapdog?"

[The Irish Tree]

Once Jayce was outside, he thought for a moment about what he would have to do until he'd be able to access the archives, and, suddenly he got a bro hug from the blonde kid. Patting the guy's back with his normal hand, he says: "I'm just glad you're alright after getting hit like that and falling...everything alright?" Jayce asked before patting the kid's head with his artificial arm, the metal nearly cupping his entire head. "Thanks, by the way. I don't know if I could have taken one of those rocks on the head myself." Nori was currently arguing with a member of the Fioran Rune Knights over the legitimacy of a dog ordering a knight to mobilize troops. Didn't help that Nori had really bad penmanship. And had really, really scary looking eyes. And that she didn't know how to write and all. And that she was scary in general. Humming after he'd patted Karn's head, Jayce turned to look back at the Council Building. "...So...what the heck is going on that was so urgent we had to call in the knights?"

[YipeeXD]

Lazarus He folded his arms, taking in what people had to say. "I know myself. I can feel it. This version of me would not betray us!" He clenched his fists, before grabbing a hold of Sasha. He was so sound up by this is was as though he were about to cry. "Please... Sasha. You're supposed to have my back. Well I'm standing over there!" He shouted. "Please... Trust me. I know he is a good man." Edo-Lazarus He stood and listened also, but instead to the barrage of abuse coming his way. Despite the fact that most of what he was saying was true. The queen, probably would know how to send them back. He decided Pen was right, and picked up his pin, and put it on. He stepped forward towards master Jamie. He grasped a hold of him, and whispered something into his ear. Jamie would probably be shocked, but nevertheless he let go, stepped back and turned around. "Yes. Take the legion Pen. I'll finish things here." He nodded. Seeing Pen off.

[Demous]

Edolas Sayuri

"Let's see. Things are looking... As good as they can be with how things are right now. Hmm... I think I'll stop in at the Pheonix Wing headquaters see if Jamie has any info on her," she sighs and rubs the head of her white legion absent mindedly. She had short red hair with black highlights, wearing black knee high boots, white pants, a red bikini top, a black jacketf and two swords crossed on her back. She watched the ground speed by as she headed towards the hall. When she arrives she notices a legion sitting out front. Standing she notices Pen and Lazarus. Tsking she lands her legion a short distance away and hops off. She waves as she walks up, "What're you two up to? Trying to convince a Guild to kill the King Pen? Well you'd best look elsewhere. I doubt you can, Jamie doesn't like politics. Huh looks like you got Laz on your side, no surprise there."

[Joshua Tamashii]

Joshua

Joshua took in all that was said with a calm expression. He saw right away that the reasons were primarily either revenge or personal greed. Neither were reasons he found worthy of fighting for. Greed would only lead to worse things. Those looking for revenge would find an empty void where the need for revenge was. And who was to say what would fill that void up. No, someone motivated by the right reasons would have to take the throne if you asked him. Releived with Edo-Jamie's offer to head inside, he followed the Edolas Master, waiting to hear what they had to say.

Amelia

"Violence should only be used in situations where it is your only recourse. And even then, never should the violence in with the taking of a life. Fight to protect but never to harm. IF you pick a fight, you're always in the wrong, no matter what you say." Amelia said quietly, holding her locket tightly" Large scale violence only leads to suffering on both sides. No one wins in the end, for too much can be lost."

[HeartlessAngel]

Phoenix Wing Guild Hall Vincent turned to the Master, grinding his teeth. "You...you know even that much?" He said, glancing at Rutger. He noticed the black flames leaping from the other male's body, and couldn't help but let out a humorless laugh. "Oh, this coming from someone who uses one of the most destructive kinds of magic out there! Don't think I don't know what those Flames mean...God Slayer." He said the last words with as much venom as he could muster. "Magic created to slay Gods, and you ask if I have a conscious...fine. Let me tell you two something." Vincent closed his eyes, trying to get his emotions under control. It had been so long since he had felt this way. So long since he had this much human contact. "I was indeed an Orphan. I watched, day in and day out, as adults came and picked children of there liking, like we were shelter pets or something. And I, everytime, watched, and prayed that I would finally get adopted. But that day never came. As I got older, the less chances I had of getting adopted, until I knew all hope was lost. So I ran away, and almost died. I had to do whatever I could to survive, I learned Magic, I stole...I became an assassin." He took a breath here, unpleasant memories flooding into his mind. "You have no idea what some of the people I've killed were. They were monsters. Human Traffickers, murderers, the worst of the worst! That is why I say people are rotten! Because they treat children like animals! Because they do whatever they please...I'm not afraid to be judged. In fact, I welcome it... at least then maybe people would see that I exist..." Ah...here it was. The one thing he had never told anyone before. So why now...was he telling two complete strangers? He looked down at his hand, and smiled bitterly. "I became so obsessed with surviving....maybe I forgot what it's like to be human."

[Zarkun]

[Damian] Once he was sure that Grane and James were safe, Grane by mean of not getting attacked by other angry guild members he pulled the lacrima from his pocket and looked at it, trying to remember what Jarvis had said about making it work. Something about thinking about what he wanted to be and crushing it. Sighing and hoping that was right, he closed his eyes and focused on his room. Crushing the lacrima in his grip, he feels himself shift locations and gasps slightly. Oh that's a funky feeling. Opening his eyes after a count of five, he finds himself in his room and he walks over to his bed and sits down heavily at the foot, slowly taking off his boots. "I hate to say it, but I need a drink." Tanking off the other boot, he removes his armor and puts on some fresh clothes, a red shirt, blue pants, and his boots. Grabbing his cutlasses from their spot on the wall, just in case, he heads downstairs to find the guild hall in ruins, sorta, and three strangers and Master Jamie talking. "OK then. What happened while we were gone?" [James] James emerged from the building at the same time Damian, Grane and Maddox appeared. As a show of good faith, he sets to healing the wounded council member's more severe wounds while waiting for a discussion for some of what he'd heard.

[CitrusArms]

Edolas

Edo-Trin waited for Edo-Sasha to sit with her before she picked her glass up and raised it to toast with the other. She takes a healthy swig of the mixed drink before she speaks, "it's gonna be so easy to mess with your double. It's kinda weird, she's seems like your opposite, almost." She turned as Karn entered and addressed them, giggling a bit abd beckoning to her. "C'mere, have some with me. I'll be your gumdrop. <3"

[Demous]

Masahiko

As he made his way down Maddox came up beside his shadow. Making a face he came out of his shadow but kept the same speed he'd been moving before. Without looking at him he responds, "Someone who doesn't exist. Someone even we couldn't stop. If we had time I would evacuate the city and try to contain him but thats not an option so I'm trying to think of a way to give us time. Do you know Light magic?"

[Burthstone]

Earthland

Mayt --- Council Building Halls.

Mayt sighed, Penny was as stubborn as ever. "I'd like to point out, again, you're more injured than I am. And if shit really is hitting the fan we should stick together." Mayt kept up with Penny, walking next to her. "And let's hope the blood witch doesn't get in the way of anything. While I doubt she'd attack the guild head-on, we'd be hard pressed to put her down if she did." He pushed his hands in his pockets, shivering once, but overall walking like a normal person. "Besides, I would hate to see you go into something over your head and get seriously hurt. Well, moreso than you already are." He licked his lips, and continued to draw off her flames some, partially using them so that she didn't have to maintain them around him, and handling

Edolas

Mayat --- Edolas Phoenix Wing.

"In my eyes your all just arrogant bastards. And Earthland Lazarus, you're a fool if you think you can a 'yourself' who possibly only shares your face. I don't care if he offers me the King's treasury and the Queen's throne, I'm no dimwit. He really just wants power for himself, and he doesn't give all that good speeches in the first place, and he's Pen's lapdog regardless." Mayat sighed, and turned away from them, stuffing her gloves in her pocket as she took them off, heading back inside the guild hall. "Oh, I see your two's date is going swimmingly." She smirked, and headed over, moderately interested in the goings-on between the two.

[MarshiestMallow]

Edo-Sasha

Edo-sasha laughed and nodded "she does. Probably a good thing. Can the world truly take two of me otherwise?" she smirked, looking over as Edo-Karn told them off, almost in a half hearted mannor "ah, Karn? My sweet, I can kick your butt drunk and you know it! Besides, someone had to stay here and protect the children, and Earthland Jarvis!" she waved a hand at Ben, Amelia, Jarvis, and at the girl of about Seven who came trotting down the stairs. To everyone, she would look vaguely familar, but they wouldn't be able to pin point why. In anycase, she moved silently to the bar, got some water and then ran up the stairs again. She smirked at Mayat's comment and said "care to join us, Mayat's!? With Karn, that makes four! Haha, you were right Karn, maybe a foursome will happen!" Edo-sasha laughed, and downed her drink, waving to Earthland Sasha in an almost flirty mannor as she stood in the entrance. "mmm. Maybe we can make it a whole guild thing!"

Sasha

Sasha sighed, and said softly "I do have your back, Lazarus. I trust you. And just because he shares your face and body doesn't make him you! I don't know him! He isn't you!" she shouted the last three words, and was mortified as her voice broke with emotion "he's not you! I care about you, Lazarus, and he isn't you! He's just someone that shares your face!" she spun around, suddenly unable to stand there, to take it. She ran inside, and then just stopped. She pressed her fingers to her eyes, and drew in a shaky breath. And then she walked over to her Edolas self, and slapped her across the face. "this isn't a time for joking" she said softly, in Edo-Sasha's shocked face. She took what was left of Edo-Sasha's drink, and drank it down, before walking up the stairs, and reluctantly retreating to Edo-Sasha's room.

Edolas Master Jamie

Edolas Master Jamie didn't react to Edo-Lazarus speaking softly in his ear. She Just shrughed, and then followed his guild members into the guild. She watched the scene, and couldn't help but smile, not that anyone saw it under the mask. As the little girl came down the stairs and retrieved some water, Jamie's eyes followed her. And found it curious that Earthland Jarvis followed her as well, before returning his attention to Amelia. "a three way struggle does seem the best way to explain this. We just have to e smart enough to avoid being crushed. Hm. Karn, and mayat, I want you two to come with me, and Jarvis. To the basement"

Master Jamie

Jamie gave a heavy sigh. He let Vincent speak, not interrupting and said "no one has a right to take someone else's life, no matter what they are. However, I can understand why. But you don't have to do it, Vincent. Would you like to know the worst moment in my life? When I nearly watched my best friend die. When I couldn't stop a little girl being murdered. She was three. Jarvis...he fought to protect us. But it wasn't enough. They wanted to kill her. And they did. They left us for dead. Her name was Phoenix. We failed that job. But vowed we would prevent the same fate happening to others, simply because they had magic. We created this guild. And here we are. You do not have to continue with your assassin life"anyone who had been apart of the guild new this story, if they so cared to ask. as Damian appeared, Jamie gave a shrug "I haven't had much of a chance to find out"

Jarvis

"we don't kill in Phoenix Wing, Little one. We protect those who can't protect themselves. Which involves figjting. Sometimes, it's your only option. And that is sad" Jarvis spoke kindly, softly, watching Amelia, and he gave a sigh. "life is hard. violence shouldn't be an option, but it is. that can't be changed. We often look for the nin-violent option. But sometimes...there is no option but to fight" a haunted expression crossed his face for the briefest of moments, before disappearing. "but everything will be alright"

penny

"we will get out when we get everyone else out" penny said to Maddox. While she would have liked r better if Mayt had left, she didn't argue when he followed. Perhaps it was for the best. So she just nodded and said "alright then. Karn said he saw Sayuri go up this way" she started in the direction Karn had seen Sayuri

edolas penny "pen"

At the agreement to use the Legion, Pen started to it, climbing on just as Sayuri began to speak to him. Pen just shrugged "Don't need the King killed, just the queen. In anycase, we aren't looking for that really. Just magic. I have to go now, but Lazarus is here. Go play with him" She nudged the Legion into the air, flying off without another word. Shortly, thank god for Legion travel, Pen had reached the capital again, and the kings hold. Moving confidently, Pen headed to the Kings stores, smooth and in charge. Anyone who looked towards Pen got a glare, and anyone who approached got would could be considered a death glance. Opening the holds, Pen went straight to the small case of Lacrima's, taking the rest that were there, minus the one he already had. At the sound of running foorsteps, Pen ducked behind a cupboard, squeezing in between two large, heavy storage trunks. "Hurry! We need those Lacrima to gather the magic!" The queen's voice. "I know m'lady, I know. they're just thi-" Pen could imagine that the servant discovered the empty Lacrima case, and could imagine his fear. "Why is the case empty?" Fury rode in the Queen's voice, and Pen winced, barely breathing, he quickly made his way out, running down the hall, feet pounding on the stone. Hef flung himself onto the Legion, and rose into the sky. He waited a time before landing again in the castle hold, calmly climbing off and walking to his rooms. He wasn't surprised by the summons to the king, and in fact, had expected it. He smiled, and headed to the court room. fter being told about the stolen Lacrima, Pen said "I will see at once that the hold is searched,my king, my queen. And I will launch an air raid to search for anyone retreating on Legion back." he bowed respectfully, hiding another smile.

[Silver Fox]

Karn Fiore || Kabo || Outside the Council Building Interacting: Jayce

Karn made a purring noise alongside a happy chuckle as he was patted on the back before having the massive metal hand covering his head in a light pat. Setting the man free from the friendly hug, the blonde looked up with a bright smile. "You're welcome. Sorry for wacking you like that though. My human self isn't quite strong enough to push someone that fast." Karn apologized before looking toward the black spiderdog, seeming to argue with the guards in her own way. The small boy looked to Jayce again at the question, slightly frowning as he nervously looked to the building. "I don't know, I think Minni is asking Lizardman about it. But... I know it doesn't smell good. It smells... Like confined living toxic. Very dangerous. And it's radiating so much magical power, it makes my skin crawl." Karn said, trying to somewhat explain the odd scent and the feeling his animalistic side felt.

Edolas

Edo-Karn Interacting: Edo-Jamie, Edo-Sasha, Edo-Trinity

"As much fun as drinking is, one of us has to be the responsible one and that apparently is me. And whatever you say Ice-Queen, but I think last time you got too drunk to kick any sort of butt." Edo-Karn responded, mildly rolling their eyes at their flirtatious acts, watching as a little girl came down and got some water before leaving. Soon, they were blinking a little as they listened to Sasha practically screaming at Lazarus before storming in. Soon slapping Edo-Sasha across the face, yelling at her, finishing off the drink, then storming upstairs into Edo-Sasha's room. Edo-Karn watched a little surprised at the act before slightly grinning in minor amusement. "Well, I guess she does have some of the Ice Queen's spice in her." Edo-Karn said before moving closer, placing the right hand on top of the dark colored hair then leaning close and placing their lips against the slapped cheek briefly before pulling away and mildly ruffling the hair like a child. "Don't worry too much. You're in charge until we get back. Try to make sure nothing bad happens. So pay attention. That goes for you too, Highlights." the blonde said slightly firmly to both Edo-Sasha and Edo-Trinity before turning to Edo-Jamie. "Alright, let's go then." Edo-Karn said before heading to the machine. Typing a few things on it and pulling a lever. Causing a soft rumble and the floor on the left side to shift away to reveal a set of stairs leading downwards.
