Time Stops For Fire(Altered Tundra and Hero)

Vlyn let out a low whistle, clearly impressed by Wesley's power. Once he finished, he even started clapping. Aloa gave him a look, and he stopped, offering only an apologetic shrug. Grant crossed his arms, clearly displeased. "Showoff." He muttered under his breath, though he did approach the door. As he was about to open it, the door was kicked down and it landed on top of Grant. Emiri stepped out, apparently prepared to fight, but as she was greeted by the sight of Wesley and the two Viera, she looked confused.

"Our job is done here." Aloa instructed Vlyn, and she began to walk away.

Emiri looked at Wesley. "What in the world is going on?"

Grant let out a groan, crawling out from underneath the door. "This would be your rescue party." He grumbled as he stood up, clearly annoyed.

"Grant?"

"I suggest you all skidaddle out of here." Vlyn suggested, turning to leave, though he stopped. "I'll be in touch. Be a good boy and deliver those messages once you're out." He waved at the trio and then took off after Aloa.

Emiri watched him leave and turned back to Wesley and Grant. She let out a sigh, not being able to comprehend the situation. Well, it actually looked like they were on the same side, which was weird. What was weirder was Jaakuna and Nadeline's absence. Before she could ask however, Grant stepped forward. "Best to be on our way, we've accomplished our mission." He told the two.

Grant couldn't help but notice Wesley's rather flashy antics. Not that Grant wasn't one to normally try to out-flash most everyone. He scoffed lightly, though found himself close to Vlyn. Despite the fighting going on, he needed to make sure that they knew why they were here, By the looks of it, Vlyn was somewhat surprised to see Grant here as well.

"So what're you doing here?" Vlyn beat him to the punch, quite literally as he uppercut a nearby soldier.

Grant raised an eyebrow at him, tossing a bomb into the crowd of mages that had foolishly clumped together. In a few seconds, it went off, knocking them all off of their feet. "Didn't you hear? I'm to be executed tomorrow." He replied lightly, somewhat amused at the viera's question.

"Since you're here already, you may as well pass on my messages." Vlyn replied, taking two slips of paper out of his pocket. He was about to hand them to Grant when he was cut off by a Fire spell that whizzed by. The viera rolled his eyes, signaling for Grant to wait a moment. Once another spell came, Vlyn grabbed it out of the air--as in he took it his hands--and hurled it back to the caster. He sighed, handing the papers to Grant. "One is for the princess, the other for the damsel in distress."

Grant took them, looking at the door. Extending his hand, he mimicked his previous action, and the door was easily crushed. As he went to it, however, he was stopped by another Thunder spell. Grant glared at the mage before him, who held his staff, as if planning to attack him. He walked right up to the mage, the two standing still for a moment, and then Grant kicked him down easily, shaking his head. Vincent needed better men.

Grant stared at Wesley for a moment, his expression completely blank. Thirty soldiers. Thirty soldiers. Either Vincent was well prepared or overly paranoid. It somewhat made sense, however, as they covered every aspect of direction. If Emiri managed to get out of the room, they'd immediately alert the rest and take her down. Still, Grant was always one for a challenge, and he scratched his chin as he thought to himself.

"Alright, show time." Grant nodded, mostly to himself, and he motioned for Wesley to follow his lead. He peeked over the wall, aiming for the farthest soldiers. "Confuse." He whispered. In the manner of seconds, the soldiers began attacking their teammates. "Let's--" Grant started, but he was interrupted by the song of a spell.

In the middle of the group of soldiers a Blizzaga was set off, scattering the soldiers. This was followed by Vlyn dropping down from the ceiling, but before any soldier could reach him, he snapped his fingers. Several bolts of lightning sprang from above him, shooting down and electrocuting several of the mages. One soldier charged at him, though Aloa had jumped down on top of him.

"Be serious, will you?" Aloa told her partner, kicking a mage down.

"I AM serious! Do you not see there's like thirty of them here?!" Vlyn snapped back, though he clawed through one soldier's armor with his claws.

It looked like Grant's spell worked. He grinned at Wesley, though he ran out from behind the wall, gun ablaze.

"She is on this floor, as is Vincent. Tread carefully." Grant warned him as he tried to think. The idea of running into Vincent wasn't one he wanted to really think about, but knowing his luck, the demon would pop up at any second. He racked his brain, trying to remember where the Penthouse Suite was. If they were where he thought they were, they should be close to Vincent's office, which meant the suite was...

"This way." He said, though as they walked, he lightly tried each door, seeing if they were open or not. "Her power won't help her if she's locked inside a room. She's also very cautious, if she hears someone trying to open the door but not enter, she'll try to see who it is." He explained.

Grant admitted that he found himself impressed by Wesley's skills. The way he combined his magic with his strikes was executed well. He watched as the soldiers fell, and for a moment he almost felt compelled to applaud his performance. Still, Wesley had a point, as much fun as he was having fun battling, he knew he needed to stay focused. But it didn't hurt to try out some things here and there, right? Besides, it was a good chance not only to showcase his own skills, but to see where Wesley was on the scale as well.

"Of course. You'll have to forgive me for wanting to test out my shiny, new gun, I needed to make sure it worked well." Grant told him with a small shrug.

The Penthouse Suite, huh? It couldn't be far at this point, but the clock was ticking. As Wesley made his last statement, Grant quirked an eyebrow at him. He personally found it ironic, just a day or two ago they could have been at each other's necks. Now they stood side by side against a common enemy. Not that they were friends or anything. It was still a funny situation, though. Grant polished his gun with his sleeve, admiring it as the soldiers neared. A burst of dark magic went from his hand and into the gun, and he pointed it to the first soldier that appeared.

"I'll be going first if you don't mind." The raven haired man said, the slightest glin in his golden eyes as he aimed. He fired off one shot, it went straight through the man. There was the slightest delay as shortly afterwards a burst of Darkga exploded, enveloping the soldier and incapacitating him. The rest of the soldiers hesitated before the two princes. Grant let out a low whistle. "I underestimate my own magic." He said curiously. "As Nadeline finds herself talented with White Magicks, I found myself gifted with Arcane spells. Now then, let's finish with this riffraff and be on our way." He told Wesley as he fired more shots.

"Think along the lines of Vincent for a moment." Grant advised as they walked around, making sure they weren't spotted. "Emelia--Emiri is his prisoner in everything but name. He will make sure that she is attended to, given a false sense of assurance. She wasn't thrown in the dungeons because he needs her to do something, that much he told me himself. With that information in mind, he would make sure that she is heavily guarded somewhere he can keep a close eye on her." The two paused at the corner of a hallway, and Grant motioned towards it. "I can't say I am one hundred percent certain, but I will make the assumption that she is here, in one of the guest rooms. Obviously the one with soldiers guarding it will be where Emiri is."

Grant looked at Wesley. "We'll be meeting some resistance. Ready?"

Youngest brother of the Royal Siblings, and first in line to inherit the throne. He is an enigma even to those close to him. He does not mind that Reia has the throne, though laments the loss of his father all the same. While he maintains the air of a nobleman, many have noted that everything is well until something unexpected happens. Very little tends to faze him, and it is from him that Nadeline learned this trait. He is very overprotective of said girl. He is very composed and intelligent, albeit quiet. He enjoys silence and recreational activities in his spare time. Rarely does he lose his temper, though he has a somewhat odd sense of humor.

Underneath his layers is a deeply troubled individual. He feels compelled to keep things under his control despite being very well aware that things tend to happen at any given moment. He is often at war with himself. He has trouble dealing with his own emotions and prefers to keep a distance from them and people. Right now he is in a state of self discovery, so to speak, so we will see how his personality folds out.

"Even if he goes awry, he wouldn't dare to do it until he knew Emi was safe." Nadeline told Wesley quietly as they carried the unconscious Jaakuna up the stairs. "I know it isn't much reassurance, but...it's the truth."

The trio (plus Jaakuna) got to the base floor without incident. Still, they knew from this point on they would have to be careful. Once they made sure the coast was clear, Nadeline knelt on the ground before the blonde. She looked up at Wesley with a determined expression. "Be careful." She told him. Grant held his hand out, and with a light breeze surrounding the two, both Nadeline and Jaakuna vanished from sight. It was an odd thing, being invisible. She could still see herself and Jaakuna, almost making her wonder if the spell had worked. Still, the way the other two looked at her said otherwise. She resumed her healing.

"The spell should last until we get back." Grant told the now Invisible Nadeline. "So long as you don't make a sound, you should be alright."

Grant then beckoned for Wesley to follow him, and the duo took off. It was one odd thing after another, it seemed. Still, Grant made sure to put every doubt and concern in the back of his mind. He held out his hand to motion for Wesley to stop at one of the doors. Placing his hand on it, the metal handle bent itself and eventually was crushed, and the door opened. Lightly pushing the door open, the armory was revealed. As they walked in, Grant spotted something of interest. He picked up the hand bomb, tossing it once, and decided he liked the feel of it. Still, this was just a backup weapon--he needed something that suited his style. As if on cue, he spotted something on one of the racks. Picking the gun up, he inspected it carefully, though by this time he was sure Wesley had finished collecting his weapons.

"All seriousness aside, I think I'm going to enjoy this." Grant commented as they left the armory, now equipped with his shiny new toys.
