Ok, it's basically a furry version of Final Fantasy. There will be the four main heroes, as usual, but anyone can join and help out along the way. The first three to reply after this will be the other heroes in this RP. Anyone else who joins after that can still play a major role. If one of the heroes die, the followers can take their place. You can choose whatever job you want. You can use your own weapons but are not limited to just those. Heroes must be regulars to the thread and check the forum daily. As usual, the story starts off in Ivalice. Entrants must reply as the following example:
Name:
Age:
Job:
Race:
Weapons:
Where you start off:
Special skills:
You can start off anywhere and meet up later (only for followers). Betrayal is allowed, but you can't kill anyone in one post. You must give them time to retaliate. Here is a list of available jobs:
Warrior - Weilds swords and axes, knows basic white magic
Thief - Weilds knives and short swords, is very quick
White Mage - weilds staves and hammers, specializes in healing and holy magicks
Black Mage - weilds staves and knives, specializes in elemental, afflicting(ex. Poison, sleep, etc.), and dark magicks
Red Mage - weilds staves, knives, and hammers, can fulfill both jobs of White and Bkack mages.
Monk - weilds no weapons, only uses fists and claws, no magic. Has incredible strength.
Archer - weilds a bow & arrows. Very quick and agile.
Fusilier - weilds guns(pistols and single-shot rifles) and specializes in afflictions.
After a certain point in the thread, your class will upgrade, making you stronger and giving you better skills. Here is the list of upgrades, weapons and magic stay the same, it just gets stronger and you can dual-weild.
Warrior upgrades to Knight
Thief upgrades to Ninja (can now wield katanas)
White Mage upgrades to White Wizard
Black Mage upgrades to Black Wizard
Red Mage upgrades to Red Wizard
Monk upgrades to Blackbelt
Archer upgrades into Hunter or Sniper
Fusilier upgrades to Cannoneer or Flintlock (can now use hand cannons)
I'll start us off.
Name: Scyler
Age: 14
Job: White Mage
Race: Tiger
Weapons: Mountain laurel staff with a red crystal on top and Mjolnir, the earth hammer.
Special Skills: can willingly share his life force with freinds if necessary to save that furs life.
Where I start: The magic academy in Ivalice
"Scyler, Get back to work!", my scholar yelled at me. "Yes, Sir!", I replied and returned to my studies. Being an advanced white Mage in the academy is a big responsibility. All of my teachers know about my rank and respect me for that, but they still help me surpass even the greatest students they've had. Slowly, I weave a spell that let's a small ball of light circle around me before I shoot it off into the sky. My teachers look at the sky in amazement as I bring it back down to the earth and it exploded in a blast of holy light. "There, Sir. I believe I've finished my studies for today.", I said, walking back to gather my tomes and other books.

Name: Xander
Age: 8
Job: Archer
Race: Silver Wolf
Weapon: Oak Bow,Iron Arrows
Specialties: Able to shoot healing arrows (not learned,yet)
Starting Point: In a tall tree,hunting.
===================================
I loaded an arrow in my bow,and pulled back,aiming at the deer that stood at a water hole,drinking.I tried to make as little sound as possible,knowing that even the faintest of noises would disturb the deer and send it storming through the forest.I aimed smoothly and loosened my grip on the bow,preparing to fire.The deer's head shot up.I stood there,quieter than a leaf.Then the deer lowered it's head back to the water.I let go of the arrow,sending it cutting through the air with a 'whistle',and peircing the buck's flesh,dropping the deer right where it stood.
-
"Listen, Sir. Not only do I outrank you, but you wouldn't stand a chance against me in a duel!", I yelled at my scholar, Sir Clive.
"Oh really? Let's just see about that!", he shouted in reply, making students get out of the way. "AERORA!", he shouted, casting a powerful wind spell.
"Shell!", I shouted, just in time to raise my magic resistance. I quickly retaliated with a high level water spell. "WATERGA!" This sent a large blade of concentrated water from the crystal in my staff, knocking my scholar on his butt, dealing no real physical damage. Only public humiliation.
"Rrrrrrrrgggghhhh!", the ferret growled. Sir Clive stood up and shook himself off. "You, Scyler, are hereby SUSPENDED!!!", he roared, pointing his finger evilly at me. And with that, I was thrown out of the academy and into the alley behind it.
-
*Walks by the Academy and hears yelling and magic being cast and hids waiting*
-
*jumps back to avoid being landed on by the student* "Woah!" *steps forward to offer a hand* "need some help?"
-
"..Sweeet.....",I said as hopped down from out of the 50+ ft. tree,landing and rolling.I walked over to the buck and grabbed the arrow.Instead of pulling it right out,I pulled the arrow back like a zipper,exposing the insides.This nearly makes me hurl.I walked away from the dead animal.My reason being for killing the buck:for other inhabitants of the forest to feast off of.I,myself,hated doing it.I did not like meat.Instead,i feed off of plants.But with each animal i killed,I gained experience,giving self-critisizm,"..Hmm......I could've done better-..",I told myself,"..-i caused the buck to get starteled...".Every archer knew that they had to be 'One With the Wind'..I,from my last hunt,was not..
-
*Steps out from the corner and says* "Whats all the comotion?"
-
I slowly stand up and try to dust the dirt off of my white robes. "Dangit...", I said, noticing that it stained my robes. I quickly wove a spell and the dirt lifted itself off of my robes and fell to the ground. "Much better.", I said, turning to face the academy. "You all suck at magic, you half-wit, no-good hacks!!!", I yelled, creating a ball of light and exploding it above the academy in a giant middle finger. (Hey, not all white mages are the perfect child. >:3)
-
*Laughs* "Very nice mage."
-
I turn around, not ashamed by my actions. "And you are?"
-
"Heh. Names Jinx. And You?"
-
I sped out of the forest,jumping,instinctively, over dead tree branches.As I arrived out of the forest I blinded my eyes,direct contact with the sunlight made me go blind.I worked better in dark environments.I continued to run until I ran into another fur,sending me flying forward."...Oww-...".I stood up and dusted myself off,rubbing dirt into my new cuts and bruises from falling.I winced in pain.
-
*smiles at the finger* "my name is andre, and very amusing display, but i proffer you this question, what now?"
-
*Stares at the bum then to the mage then back again*
-
I walked away,licking the blood away from the cut,and went to go pick up my bow,arrows,and arrows holder.After,I continued to walk off,still licking my arms,and headed for my hunting class at the FAA (Fur Arching Academy).
-
"Well, I'm Scyler. And my guess is that in 10 seconds, 13 holy spells are going to obliterate us. No worries though. SHELLGA!!", I replied, putting up the strongest barrier skill I knew. Just about that time, 13 holy spells crashed Ito my barrier and were deflected harmlessly. "Hehe, weaklings..."
-
*Laughs and glances at the academy*
-
"Well Andre, Jinx, it's been good meeting you, but I've gotta meet my brother at the Fur Arching Academy. So if you'll excuse me, I'll be off.", I said, making my way to the FAA.
-
*gets up and follows* ~"this might proove to be amusing"~ (i gotta go, i'll be back in a while)
-
*Sighs and deciceds that he would bet them there.*
-
As I arrived,cradling my arm,the Master Sargeant appaered in front of me."..So,Xander,where's your 'hunt'?...."I looked away,"...Don't have it?..""..No Sir..."I looked downwards,"....Xander...just because you dont like meat,doesnt mean you can't just leave it there..""..I kow,Sir..but It helps....the rest of nature may not be able to fend off for itselt,Sir.."He simply laughed obnoxiously,"..You know what I think?",he said enforcingly,giving me a backpaw and I,wincing,clenching my teeth,looking down"...This is what I think...:SCREW NATURE....nature won't be there to help YOU..WILL THEY?..."I looked at him,enraged,"..Well you kno what I think?.."I backed up,"..I think YOU are an OVERGROWN,CHEAPO...You NEVER CARE about others...walk a mile in THEIR shoes for ONCE..."He glared at me,burning a hole through my forehead and I turned around,giving him time to think. (ironically,i go barefooted)
-
*Gets to the archery academy first sighs and leans against a post and waits*
-
I reached the FAA and was instantly bombarded by children who wanted me to entertain them. I looked around and saw my brother wasn't back yet. I decided I would humor the children request and entertain them. I pulled out a tome of illusionry, which I shouldn't be using by law of the academy, I quickly wove a spell that made a small translucent fireball(harmless fire) hover in front of me. I then caused the small fireball to dart around and fly very close to the children. They all gasped in amazement when I reached out and grabbed the fireball and it did nothing. I then split the forebal into three fireballs and caused them to spin in a very fast circle. Suddenly, I caused the fireballs to stop. However the children looked into the center and saw that the world behind it appeared to be spinning. They all gasped in amazement and cheered for me. I crsytallized the fireballs and gave then to a lucky child. I looked around and still saw no trace of my brother.
-
*Watching the little show clapping and walks up to Scyler still clapping* "Very nice master mage."
-
I walked out of the academy,acting like nothing happened.Then noticed my brother,running up to him and hugging him,"..HAY,brother!"
-
I hugged him back. (btw, you're older in this one) "Hey Xander! Guess what! I was suspended from the academy today!", I said, not even ashamed at what I'd done.
-
*Taking a step back and glancing around the area*
-
I laughed (yeup!),"...I told the MSgt off,today!" (Master Sargeant -im an NJROTC kid...>.>..-)
-
"This is Jinx. He met me after I got thrown out of the academy. By the way, I'm only an advanced Mage right now. I'll be a master White Mage as soon soon as I can cast Holyga.", I said, effortlessly replenishing my energy with a small amount out of the earth. "Ahh, that's better. Brother, what happened to your arm?", I asked noticing his arm had been laced open.
-
*Bows slightly* "Ah my appoliges."
-
"Oh,THAT...",I giggled,"..I tripped.....but it's ok,man!."I stretched out my uninjured paw,"..Names Xander!..."
-
*Shakes paws and nods slightly*
-
"CURA!!", I shouted, watching the wound close up. The fibers stitched together and sealed up as if nothing happened. "Good as new, brother!"
-
"..Thank you,bro!".I stretched my arm out,cracking a few bones,"....so,where we headed,next?"
-
"Well, maybe we should swing by the temple of the wind crystal. Seeing as how it's in town and all. What do you say?", I said, pointing in the direction of the temple.
-
*Smiles and rubs hands together*
-
"YES SIR!..",I said ecstatically,skipping in that direction
-
*Walks behind slightly rubbing the handles of his daggers as he goes*
-
*follows quietly contemplaiting the strange foursome walking along* (SO sorry guys, i had a General Inspection and had to clean my barraks, frikin' government -.- )
-
('tis ok,doode!....)
I stopped in my strack,hearing footsteps."...We're being followed,guys.." (and im NOT god moding...i just have a strong hearing sence..it makes up for my blindness in the daytime from too much sun)
-
*Acts like nothings going on with firm grip on daggers*
-
*walks right up to the three and starts eating some trail rations*
-
I stood still,then swiftly turned around,having an arrow pointing right at his chest,".WHO ARE YOU.."
-
*Pulls out posion tipped daggers and waits*
-
*smiles from behind ration bar and then offers some* "Andre, and who are you?"
-
I kept it aimed at him,"......Xander...".My face was dead-serious
-
*Smirks but doesnt put daggers aways*
-
*lowers the food* "hey now, there's no need to be hostile, i don't mean you any harm, i was just following your brother here and it happened to lead me here, he has an impressive knack for magic by the way, does it run in the family?"
-
After he mentioned 'my brother',I lowered my weapon,"....no...or not yet,i think..."
-
*Sighs and puts my daggers away*
-
*relaxes and offers the food again* "now that that's out of the way ^.^ "
-
"..im not hungry..."
-
"Lets continue."
-
*offers it to the tiger* "you? by the way, would you by chance be headed this direction" *points in the direction of the next town*
-
(sorry, a freind came over for a while)
"We're here, guys.", I said walking up the steps of the temple, opening the door quietly and entering.
"Well that all depends on what happens in here."
-
(it's cool)* follows*
-
*Keeps firm grip on dagger handles and brings up the rear*
-
('tis alright!)
~walks inside and admires the statues surrounding us~
-
I walk inside and walk straight up to the altar with the oversized crystal. "O, Wind crystal. Let me hear thine orders, so that I mayest fulfill them." A strange feeling like that of a breeze enters my head.
Scyler, I see you have finally found the other two chosen ones. Beware, the road ahead is a perilous one. You have need of more members, Scyler. For you cannot do this alone. If Ivalice is to be spared the great war to come, then you must defeat the dark king of Ixcathia. I bid thee good tidings on thy journey. Fare well, Scyler. Let the peaceful winds guide your path.
"Yes, great wind crystal. I shall do so."
-
*Looks at the crystal closly*
-
*walks in and stares at the architecture* "impressive"
-
I walked back to the three others and related the message. "So, any questions?", I asked, having just relayed the message.
-
*Pokes crystal*
-
*i look rather suprised* "yes actually, what do you mean 'chozen'?"
-
I turned and looked at brother.
-
*Continues to poke and examine crystal*
-
*slaps jinx* "hey! some respect!"
-
*Pulls dagger out* "I didnt take it i was examining it"
-
"Calm down, all of you! Now, every tim Ivalice is in great peril, the crystals choose four heroes to ward off that evil. Usually it's only the chosen four who can stop it, but we have been given permission to get more helpers. If you haven't figured it out yet, we are the chosen four. We must kill the dark king of Ixcathia to stop a devastating war from tearing Ivalice apart."
-
"very well, then when shall we begin our quest?"
-
*Puts dagger away.* "What if we need more info?" *Looking back at it* "We may need it"
-
"We'll learn on the way,besides..it makes it more fun!"
-
*nods* "he has a point, we should leave it alone jinx"
-
"Alright alright" *Staring at the crystal*
-
"By the way Jinx, that crystal can kill you and choose anothe in the blink of an eye. If I were you, I'd banish all thoughts of stealing it, permanently.", I said, casually walking out of the temple.
-
*Sighs.* "Alright alright. Lets go then."
-
*chuckles*
-
*Ignores Auto and walks out*
-
"We'll head out tomorrow. I'll get all of the supplies ready. Xander and I will makevsure everything is set. But for today, we're just going to relax and say our good-byes. Ok?"
(in this thread, auto goes by Andre)
-
"sounds good i have some supplies to get anyway"
-
I walked over to my brothers side.
-
"so when and where shall we meet?"
-
*Thinks about people who he should say good-bye to....... The angry ramen shop manger........ The angry baker............ The angry husbands..................... All the graves.....................* "Well my good-byes are already done with. But supplies are still needed!"
-
"We'll meet back here at noon. That way we can get a little more clarity on these instructions about the Ixcathian king. I'll see you all at noon. Xander, let's go get something to eat. Magic weaving makes you hungry!", I said walking towards the ramen shop.
-
*considers the supplies needed and heads to the stores*
-
"..Yeah!!....god,i LOVE ramen!".
-
"Yes yes Ramen is the shit." *Head to the stores*
-
(ramen is the most epic food EVAR!)
*wanders around the stores buying weapons and armor, ammo and food, and the like*
-
(and you can put ANIETHING in it and it'll STILL taste EPIC...heh..i was bored so i made some and put steak sauce in it.......it......was......BEAUTIFULL......
OM GAWD.... :sparkle: :drool: :razz: )
-
*Goes around trying to avoid peoples attention* "Hmm what do i need? I know! *Runs into the nearest weapon shop*
-
(I wish the FF could get together IRL i'd make us all super ramen [the real kind not microwaved])
-
(that'd be the best thing EVAH!)
-
(omg i know! but eh... we kinda derailed the RP TO BACK ON TOPIC!)
-
(After the next few posts I have to sleep. That's why I want to continue this tomorrow)
I walk up to the counter and take a seat on the stool. "Hey, Lucas. Give me one bowl of Ramen w/beef and one bowl Ramen w/veggies."
"You got it Scyler. You look like you're heading off somewhere. Am I right?", he asked, as he prepared the ramen.
"Yeah, I found the other chosen ones.", I said, feeling the day was a tad bittersweet.
-
*Comes out of weapons shop whislting then turns around and locks door and looks around and runs to the nearest armor shop*
-
I looked up at brother and grinned,"...heh,you remembered!.."
-
*eyes jinx* "oh gawd, i hope he didn't do what i think he did"
(i gotta go in 30 min and so does jinx)
-
*Walks out of the armor shop bouncing a sack of coins whistling to himself smiling*
-
~"i really hope he knows what being a 'hero' means"~ *walks to the ramen shop and orders some beef ramen* "hey guys"
-
*Walks around a bit more 'bumping' into wealthy people as they go by*
-
{Jinx, stop stealing from the innocent. That's not hero material.}, I contacted him mentally.
"Yeah. Hey Andre. Lucas, this is Andre, he's one of the chosen."
"Andre is it? Nice to meet another of the chosen.", he said, extending a paw.
-
{Sorry i thought we could use the money}
*Goes to the ramen shop. Doesnt enter but watches from the other side of street.*
-
*nods and shakes his paw* "nice to meed you too"
-
"The fur across the street is also one of the chosen as well.", I said pointing at Jinx.
"That bloody thief is one of the CHOSEN?! How?!"
"Don't ask me, ask the crystal.", I said as he handed me a bowl if ramen. I hungrily dug in, savoring the beefy flavor. :razz: "Lucas, I'm really going to miss you and your delicious ramen."
-
*Enters Ramen shop and hands Ramen man his money and says* "See i told ya i'd be back." *Then sits down* "Whats up going on guys?"
-
*sighs and shakes head* "i dont know him >.< "
-
"Hello to you to Andre."
-
*is suddenly VERY intrested in his ramen*
-
I finish my ramen and pay Lucas. "I'm going now, Lucas.", I said waving as I slowy walked back to my house and curled up in my nice soft bed.
(good night. We'll continue the thread tomorrow.)
-
*Leaves ramen shop and looks for a place to sleep*
(Alright cool cool.)
-
*pays for ramen and thanks owner, then finds an inexpensive local inn to stay at*
(i'm not gonna be on till 4:40 PM (pacific) tomorrow, so if ya gotta leave town, just write me into it k?)
-
(we can wait for ya before we leave.)
-
ghost stood in front of a straw dummy her knuckles callused from so much practicing her fighting, she was blind but her ears could pick up sound vibrations, and thet let her see, that skill hasn't slowed her progress so far. her instructor called her to the center ring she had been training for many years, trying to be a real monk, today was her day to graduate from the monk acadamy she had to fight her instructor, she steppeted into the ring. and began... with in an hour she had finally managed to defeat her instructor, she showered and stepped infront of her instructor, now with a bruze the size of kansas across his face, and he presented her with her monk knuckles, padded inside and metal and razors on the outside, now her greatest possession, she smiled and walked away, she was going to go on a adventure soon, she just had to find one...
EDIT ((srry))

-
I woke up bright and early. I hopped out of bed and walked out into the town, going to buy some items for the trip. I walked into the generalnstore and walked up to the counter. "Hey, Jonas! I'd like to buy 20 potions and 15 ethers.", I said, tossing a bag of Gil on the counter. "You going somewhere, Scyler?" "Yeah, I found the other chosen ones. We begin our adventure today!", I said smiling as I bagged up all of the potions and ethers.
-
*Runs out of alley way that was used to shelter for the night and goes to find others*
-
ghost walked around, her armor in her leather packpack, her knuckles on her hands, she walked into a general goods store to try to get some bandages for her trip when she found it, she heard a tiger talking about an adventure, she thought mabey i can join, she walked up to the tiger "hello i heard you were going on a journey, i was wondering if i may join you" she asked he seemed friendly enough, her monk acadamy symbol on her knuckles, and on her pack
-
*Saw monk well dressed and followed making sure to stay a safe distance behind*
-
"Umm, sure! We could always use help!"
I noticed Jinx and walked out if the store to meet up with him. "Hey Jinx!", I said, walking up to him. "Are you almost ready to leave?",
-
*Looks into money pouch and grins* "Yep All set!"
-
she heard a cat behind her, she didn't want to react to start a fight, but she didn't want her stuff stolen, so she walked over a bit to the other side of the tiger, so she could look at the cat and make it look like she could see the cat, while still talking to the tiger, then she saw the tiger react to the cat, "cool are we travling with anyone else" ghost aske dthe tiger "i'm phantom falcon, but many people call me ghost, who are you"
-
"I'm Scyler! I'm an advanced White Mage, plus I'm one of the four chosen by the crystals. Yes, there will be two others besides Jinx and myself. We're all going to meet up at the temple of the wind crystal before we leave."
-
"Yea wheres the dog?" *Looking around.*
-
"got it, i'll be there soon i have to get some supplies, hey do you know where we are going" she asked checking to make sure she could buy what she needed
-
"Yeah, we're going to Ixcathia to defeat the dark king and prevent a war from breaking out in Ivalice."
-
*Thinks of all the gold and riches the dark king must have.*
-
"ok what about food, well we could hunt, but what about tents and weather wise?" she asked making sure she had her knife and sharpining tool (it's just a tool i won't use it in a fight)
-
I shot up,groaning,"..Uhhnn.....you ready,br-......".I stood up and noticed he was already gone to the temple,"...Oh GREAT..just LEAVE....".I threw some shorts and a shirt on,grabbed my bow and arrows,and jolted out of the door
-
"I have three large leather tents big enough for two per tent. We're set there."
-
(The fuuun has arived! sorry for late start, i'll be off then on again in 15)
*wakes up and goes outside*" hmm, better go to the temple...."
-
I arrived at the temple,out of breath,hands on knees,"...~gasp~...WHY'D YOU-...~gasp~..AWW.FORGET IT...".
I steadied my breathing to normal
-
"I just went to get supplies for the trip, brother. Besides, YOU overslept.", I said, replenishing his energy with a ball of light.
-
"got it, i'll meet you at the temple in a bit, don't leave without me" ghost said walking to another store, she bought her self a cloak with a hood to keep the rain and snow off, modified for her wings, some flint and steel, with tinder in a water proof pack, a lot of salt, a first aid kit, and an armor matinance kit. once she knew she was ready for most of the world she checked her armor and put the boots, pants, shirt, and bracers on, also she put on her cloak, pulling her hood up so less would she the shock of her silver red hair. and she got to the temple and sat down, and waited to see the others.
-
"..Yeah,yeah...",I said,grinning.
-
*walks into the temple casually* "goooodmorning everyone!"
-
*Grunts an reply and pratice using his daggers*
-
"hello" ghost said politly, keeping her hood pulled down, but letting her ears stick out the back so she could hear
-
"Hey, Andre! This is Ghost! She'll be joining us on our quest.", I said, looking through my pack. Suddenly, a Hume burst through the doors and yelled, "Z-z-zombies! Zombies are attacking the town!!"
"What?! C'mon, let's go!", I shouted, darting out of the temple, weaving a holy spell on the way there.
-
*Stops twirlling daggers and grins* "This sounds like it could be fun!" *Following Scylers lead*
-
*I leap through the doors landing in a roll and srawing my pistol* "where?!"
-
I rushed behind brother,readying a bow and searching for a good spot to 'snipe' from
-
"jese i didn't think this would start so soon" ghost said sheding hercloak and checking her knuckles and following the tiger called swift claw
-
*Cracks neck and grins* "Show me the zombies."
-
"awww ya" ghost said "lets rockit" ghost said running faster and sliding around a corner, and regaining control (ps i invented drifting lol) and smashing her fist into a zombie
-
*Laughs and pounces driving both daggers into a nearby zombie*
-
"ghost needed a better view of the scale of the fight so she leapt into the air and looked down with sound and saw about 100 zombies in the town she landed and yelled "there are 98 zombies-" she stopped to kick another -"97 zombies in the town" making sure the others could hear her.
-
*Pounces into another and starts stabbing vicously*
-
I wasn't good at close range,the zombies size towering mine,so i ran and climbed a decent-sized brick wall,the aimed and shot a zombie in the heart,knowing that that was their best 'kill-point'
-
*quickly ends a zombie behind jinx with a shot to the head and another with a swift kick to the neck*
-
ghost sunk a fist into a zombie then using the zombie spun around and hurled that zombie into another zombie, then cracking a skull with her fist, she killed the zombie that was thrown at, then kicked another in the throat, with her boots, wipping around breaking the necks of a few more zombies before jumping and landing on a balcony for a second to catch her breath
-
"Good God...", I said, seeing an army of the undead charging straight at me. "PROTECT!", I shouted, casting a ward of physical attacks around my companions and myself. "HOLYGA!!!", I shouted, trying to cast the spell only Master White mages knew. Nothing happened. "HOLERA!!!", I shouted, creating a large ball of light and sending it straight throughthe zombies, obliterating the first wave of them.
-
"Nice shot dog." *Runs and backstabs a zombie and slices another zomibe with the other dagger*
-
( ...~sigh~..FF X was fun.....can't believe i LOST IT...) :th_PyongLlora:
"HEY BROTHER!!..CAST THUNDERGA AT MY ARROW WHEN I SHOOT IT!!!".I pulled back on the arrow and let go,sending a 'whistle' towards the zombies.
-
"always a plesure killing the undead" *i shout to the party, spin kicking a zombie into two others*
-
"thanks" ghost said as she jumps back down and starts fighting zombies. (yo i'll be back in a few my mom needs the laptop sorry, don't let zombies kill me please lol)
-
(Final Fantsy X is awesome! It sucks that you lost it man.)
*Dodges away from a group of zombies that circled him*
-
(I KNO!!...And i was at the stage when I was fighting his DAD....he is HAAAARD...)
-
(I Know!!!!!!!) But he is so cool looking!)
-
*leaps behind ghost so they are back to back and begins a barrage of paws and claws on the zombies*
-
(i back, my compuer is so slow and useless)
ghost sent another kick to a zombie in front of her, "dude, duck" ghost shouts to the fur behind her as she sets up for a mid air spin kick
-
(HEK CHA!..and the perfect music,too!)
I shot multiple arrows at once,hitting zombies in various places
-
*drops to a knee loading his pistol*
-
(dude, party foul. That's black magic, Xander! Not white!)
"Holy!", I cast, sending a ball of light at the arrow. It wrapped itself around it tightly to increase volatility.
-
(I know!!!!!!1 Have you played Final Fantsy x-2?)
*Runs through a group of zombies slashing and hack as he goes*
-
ghost jumped and spun around her heel comming into contact with 5 zombies, she landed and turned into a huricane of fists and feet giving cover to the dog gunner
-
(huh brother?..here,PM it to me,kk?sorry i didn't know :upupdi3:..and YEA!..i have played it..but i havent gotten far,tho..)
-
(Its pretty cool too but its way faster paced!)
*Jumps on top of a couple of zombies and foces their heads into eachother*
-
*fires the pistol, killing 3 zombies as the bullet keeps going to drop 2 more further away* "Thanks!" *jump up and clubs a 6th with the pistol"
-
I noticed a few zombies climbing onto the roof."..OH FRIK!!..",I yelled,shooting up and running from building to building,trying to stay away from them.
-
*Jumps on the back of the dog and uses him to get father ahead and pounces into a group of zombies*
-
*draws his rifle killing one of the wall-zombies and starts to reload*
-
"Screw this...", I said, pulling out my tome of illusionry. "Star Cross!", I shouted, holding out my palm. A portal from heaven opened and bathed the zombies in holy light, giving their souls eternal rest.
-
ghost slowed kicking and punching to catch her breath, they must have been half done by now, still giving back cover to the dog she snapped her arm out letting her knuckles smash into a zombie face and elbowed another whilegrabbing a zombie and crushing it's neck with her other arm, but was too slow to avoid a slice on her forearm froma zombie before crushing another to the face "agg"
-
*Looks around and sighs*
-
*stands up slowly, amazed by the speed the tiger dispached them with* "WOW!"
-
"...whoa,brother........",I looked up at the power he was using,amazed.Then held on to the ledge of a building.
-
"Ether... I need an ether...", I said, gasping for breath, my magic power drained.
-
"wakeu[p" ghost yells smashing the zombie nearest the dog, "its cool but were still suronded" ghost said sweeping her armn n arc hitting flesh and bones, andi'm getting a bit tired" she said slowing a fraction more, butstill kicking butt and taking names
-
*Looks around at all the left over stuff and starts going through them all*
-
*tosses a small brown bag to the tiger* "here"
-
I drink an ether and stand back up. "Prominence!!!", I shouted, forming a giant wall of fire. With a motion of my nandI sent it towards the remaining zombies. The fire passes harmlessly through my freinds but obliterated the last of the zombies.
-
"ok, that was a good work out, and a fair test" ghost said walking and putting her cloak back on and resecuring stuff to her pack
-
*Continues to looks for stuff*
-
"oiea"ghost said looking through out the zombie corpsus picking up some coins and some gear items, then straightened up "yo should we secure the premiterof the town in case they go for a counter strike" ghost asked the tiger fur
-
*Finds an intresting item and coins. Sits on top of a mound of corpses and examines the item*
-
"i don't think even zombies are stupid enough to mess with magic like that" *wanders around inspecting the zombies bit not taking anything* "hmm.... strange, they seem to all be soldiers"
-
"yo guys i'm kinda tired what about you" she asked having fought before this occasion she was in need of some sleep if she could snag it soldiers, weird" ghost mutters
-
I stood near brother,just incase one of the zombies rose.
-
I quickly heal the team with an advanced healing spell. "Curaja!", I said, healing everyone and causing the zombie corpses to vanish. "No, they're all gone. I think these might have been sent by the Ixcathian king.", I said, holding up a shield bearing the Ixcathian crest.
-
*Pockets item and coins and cleans off blood on tunic*
-
"hm, makes sense, they might have even been soldiers of armies who opposed him.... when they were alive anyway" *looks up at the sky* "hm, we could look for a ride to the next town and sleep there"
-
"right so what should we do now, stay for another day, or head out now" ghost said sitting on the ground opening her water skin and taking a swallow.
-
Well, it's only noon, we could easily make it to a neighboring village by nightfall tomorrow if we leave out tonight. Let's go."
-
"I think we should head out." *Thinks of all the angry people who will be out looking for him*
-
"ok thenguys" ghost said puting her water skin away and slnging her pak up and walking over to scylar "ready to go"
-
"it's a plan then, lets go"
-
ghopst streched and started walking out of the town, "yo if we need to i'll scout a head if we need to know what is ahead of use" ghost said looking at the other four furs
-
"I'll acoppine you if it means getting out of here." *Looks around.*
-
"i think the one with the bow is a little better suited to the task guys... er, guy and girl"
-
"...Sure.." ,I looked at brother,"...I'll cover high ground.."
-
"I could be back up. I'm fast and i can hid well."
-
"no problem but i thought we were all leaving now" ghost said looking at the tiger "but when ever we leave i'm ready i was offering as a scout because i can fly but it's up to you guys" ghost said putting her hands in the air meaning no offence
-
"oh... i overlooked that, but there is a chance they have archers, it would be regretable if you were hit"
-
right" ghost said "thankyou, any way i'm ready when you are" ghost said taking her water skin outand offering ittothe furs
-
*Looks around and sighs waiting.*
-
*declines and drinks from his own* "so, how shall we be traveling?"
-
I walked out of town, my group of furs following me. I rapidly regained my magic power with each step. I began to feel happy again. I wove little spells that took little concentration and power to entertain us on our journey. I would occasionally make a small ball of light and have it folow somefur in front of me while the rest of us laughed. I even created a light clone ofmyself and had him mimic what I did.
-
*Grins the whole way.*
-
I dashed ahead of them,launching myself into a nearby tree about 30 feet above the ground,then sat down,"..You guys can move and faster?.."
-
(hey guys i got to go to bed i got school 2maro, sorry for the rest of the journey i followed obendintaly, and was quite till i get back, thanks guys)
-
(Laters!)
-
(kk, later)
*looks ahead at X* "why rush?"
-
(yea..me too..step-dad keeps being a jerk) :umm:
-
(Alright laters!)
-
I shot a ball of light and manipulated it into a sword. Using that, I cut down the branch he was sitting on. "Don't be a showoff, brother."
(good night, we'll continue tomorrow)
-
(aww, bye to all the peoples :th_PyongLlora: see you tomorrow)
-
I groaned and rubbed my head as i stood up,"..nnnnn..I wasn't showing ooooff....",I whined.
-
(kay dudes i'm back, sorry for the wait i had stage crew to do, uggg we have so many people, i never have anything to do blah!)
ghost chuckled as she heard the archer fall, "we'll need speed eventually, but for now we'll get there in due time" ghost said streching her arms up then flying to a branch, and landing on it, chuckling, then glided back to the others.
-
I walked further down the road, noticing something unusual. "Stop! Nobody move... there are traps eveywhere. Just follow me closely and we'll get through this unharmed. I made a ball of light and sent it above us. This illuminated most of the traps. "Watch your step."
-
"traps, in a road where anyone can travle" ghost said pulling her cloak off and armor boots and pants and her shirt on before walking behid the line of furs covering, the rear of the furs, ready to give cover, if needed "could this be the work of bandets, they might attack random people for money or such"
-
"You could be right. In fact, you are. The bandits who laid these traps have been following us for the past hour.", I said, cautiously stepping over a trip wire. "Stay alert..."
-
"then why don't we take em down on your guyses singnal we take em down (we'll wait for auto, jinx, and jo rite)
-
"Because, a strong defense beats a weak offense. Just wait for them to make a move."
-
"ok then" ghost didn't like following orders but she had learned duty before pride, so sh stayed at the back putting her cloak back on so no one could see the armor she wore.
-
"Hey,guys...I have an idea....".I readied a bow,"..Go for cover..."
-
(were waiting for jinxed and auto. Don't kill anyone... Yet)
"Alright, let's move."
-
(I'm not :upupdi3: ....i'll hold it right here.)
-
(allright, I'll be back in a few.)
-
(..ditto..i have chores to do.....so i 'Can spend the night at a friends house.) <--- :umm:
-
(kk have a good time)
-
(back, i don't know where jinx is i can't find him on campus and he's not in his dorm O.o )
*jumps off the path clearing a trip wire and a stake pit and lands near some bushes with a rifle at the ready*
-
(well do you guys think we should continue?..I dont want to start without anybody..) :upupdi3:
-
(idc it's up to you guys)
-
(let me tell you exactly what scott would do......)
*jinx leaps into a tree daggers drawn ready to land on a bandit and end his life horribly*
(that's pretty much him >.< )
-
(Jinx is intuitive. He'll catch on fast.)
"Here they come.", I said, walking down the road. One of the bandits stepped right in my way. "Oi, what is a leetle runt loik yaself doin travellin around at noight? We'll leave ya be if ya hand us ya wallet!"
-
*grinns while leveling his rifle at one of the bandits trying to sneak up on the tiger*
-
I lowered my bow,getting mad,"..Little runt?.....we'll SEE about that...won't we?..".I shot a bow down at the ground below him,setting off a mine under ground,and exploding.
-
ghost moved over to the bandit when she seemed small and weak she spread her arms and crushed his face "they never look past the height and eyes" she murmered before spinning to find other attackers (how many bandits)
-
*lays the bandid out with a shot to the head* "looks like it's started"
-
(7 left)
I smiled evilly and decided to use geomancy.(channeling nature's power into a spell. The spell depends on your environment.) I put my arms to the side and spun gracefully, sending a shower of dirt on the bandits around me. I then forced tree roots to grow from the ground and hold the bandits. Lastly, I showered them with more dirt and walked off laughing. "Oh won't the townspeople laugh when they hear you were bested by a RUNT! Hahahahahahaha!!"
(0 left >:3)
-
"ok" ghost said wiping blood of her hands and cloak "should we press on, or scavenge gear, or burn the enemy" ghost said feeling some bad about having the bandits die a long way from home
-
*quietly moves dead bandit to side of road and crosses his arms in a funeral pose then says a prare and walks next to the tiger*
-
I skipped childishly infront of the group,then stooped suddenly.I stood there,listening,hearing a rustly,then a faint giggle,which appeared to be another bandit.I dodge-rolled ahead,dodging the bullet he shot,and came out of the roll,automatically shooting a bow at him and hitting him in the groin.I continued to skip childishly.
-
*watches this with dull amusment, then knocks the bandit out* "nobody needs to endure that kind of pain"
-
"thank you. ok were done here, lets leave, we can stop later, people might wonder why people were camping next to a bunch of dead people, and they might wonder who killed them" ghost said moving the bandits into a clearing away from the road
-
"good idea, lets get going" *starts walking*
(i gotta go to dorm room chores, i'll be back in a few)
-
"Dont worry about that. Were the chosen after all. If anything, they'll praise us and give us some useful items.", I said, pulling out Mjolnir. I ran up to a tree and slammed it with my hammer, felling it in one blow. "Man, I love this hammer!"
-
"how did that help us" ghost asked looking at the waste of a tree, follows the dog gunner on the path
-
(heck yeah! 2 min shower!!!!!!)
*turns around* "nice hammer, but what did the tree do to you? O.o "
-
"Look beneath the tree.", I said, pointing at what the tree landed on. There lay a group of bandits that were going to ambush us. "Sorry about the tree, but I did what had to be done."
-
"ah, so i see, what's with all the bandits? is the dark one hiring outside help?"
-
"mabey, i think we shouldn't stay though" ghost said casting sound out and checking the land making sure, there were no more suprises
-
*walks a ways and starts fidgeting* "i'm kinda bored..... hey X wanna race?"
-
"I'll race." *Smiles evily*
-
*sets down his gear* "on three then"
-
*Cracks neck*
-
"THREE!" *bursts out of his starting position letting his powerful legs carry him across the ground with no effort at all*
-
*Just stands there and smiles*
-
*clears a trip wire in mid stride and grinds to a halt* "Looks like we missed one!" *uses a stick to set it off as arrows fly across the road* "NOW will you race?"
-
(Sorry todisappoint, but I won't be on much for the next two days. School, football game, and a marching band competition. Sorry, but well have to pause the thread for a while.)
-
(alright, have fun at the competition, are you playing in the game?)
-
(Alright man its all good.)
-
(nah, I don't play football. I'm in the marching band, but I can't march due to an injury. However I still get to watch the competitions.
-
(Oh cool cool.)
-
(well, have fun, hope you get better soon, how are you hurt anyway?)
-
(uhhh... Pm me. I'll tell ya there.)
I watched the two race and laughed, enjoying the spectacle of cat v. dog.
-
*Jumbs on Andres back and looks down at dog and smiles*
-
*breaks his calm attitude and freaks out snarling at the cat thrashing about, then jumps away suddenly calming down and laughing* "scare ya?"
-
*Jumps and lands gracfully on both two feet.* "Nah. I already knew you'd spaz out."
-
"humph" *picks up gear and begins walking* "i'll get you eventually"
-
"Liar.", I said, walking by and casting a small water spell around his groin. "You were so scared you wet yourself.""
-
*Looks down at croch.* "Now why would you do that?" *Pulls cloak closely around so no one can see the wetness*
-
*laughs outloud finally lightening up to the group* "that works too" :peace:
-
I quickly withdraw the water and drop it directly into the ground.
-
:shcoked: "HER.... HIS WATER BROKE!" *laughs uncontrolably*
-
*Pulls cloaks hood over head and face and walks away*
-
"Aw, get a sense of humor, Jinx.", I say running up to him and giving him a hug.
-
*Trys to get out of hug* "Meh!!!!!!!"
-
*stops laughing long enough to walk up to jinx and pat him on the head* "aww, hey man, it's all in good fun"
-
(feel beter soon, and good luck with the marching band stuff)
ghost hearing all the jokes laughed, it was lik being back in the monk acadamy, all the practile jokes, but at least here, fists wern't thrown
-
*Bites Andre's hand.*
-
"so much for this not being like the monk acadamy" ghost said grabbing some acorns and flying up in the sky and dropping them on the tiger, cat and dog, not enough to hurt but enough force so you would feel the seeds landing on your head. she then landed when she heard some light thunks, "i could not resist" she said laughing
-
"I guess I earned that one...", I said, brushing acorns out of my hair.
-
"ya but not from me" ghost said laughing "ya got ta get me for it to be even" ghosy said
-
((Why not... I've not RP'ed in a long time. And it makes me think of the original Final Fantasy as well.))
Name: Vosur
Age: 24
Job: Warrior
Race: White Wolf
Equipment: Straight-edged blessed cavalier's saber, nicknamed the "Spirit of Ebele" with an accompanying sheath, which he uses as an effective shield, and a few white magic scrolls for study purposes, oversized grieves and fittend gauntlets for armor, all-black clothing for padding.
Special Skills: Basic White Magic (Cure, Curaga, Revive/Raise, Heal are currently mastered ones)
Starting Location: Fields north of Ivalice
Vosur was currently in a fight with several Centipedes, only taking minor scratches and hits due to blocking most of the severe ones with his sheath, slowly taking them out one-by-one. "Dang, why is it that these things just like me?" he says as places the final stab into the last Centipede. With a sudden jerk of the sword out of the monster and a swipe before he resheathed the blade, then started work on healing himself with simple Cure spells.
-
*Shakes acorns away and looks around.* "It been really quiet all of a sudden."
-
After he finished healing himself, he sat down next to a tree and pulled out a scroll, reading on it and studying it. "M'kay... that's how it should be, but it doesn't seem to work that way. I wonder what I keep missing."
-
"i know, it is like dinner time" ghost said listing to her stomach growl "we fought zombie, saved the town, fought bandits and escaped traps, and had a race and a few practle jokes, we had a full day" ghost said sitting down and taking out some jerky, and eating it, offering it to the other furs
-
I take the jerky thankfullyfrom Ghost. "Thanks.", I said, using a nearby rock as a chair.
-
He spend the last few moments before sunset still studying the scroll, then slowly rose to his feet as he put away the scroll and started making his way back into Ivalice. "I was told to go out into the world and see how the world really moves about, but they didn't tell me that there'd be monsters as well."
-
(( you ok man ))
"lets set up camp for tonight, while we got daylight" ghost said looking around "someone needs to hunt, start a fire, find water andset up the tent. did i miss any thing?" ghost asked looking at the tiger
-
*Takes ome jerky and grunts a thanks.* "I'll hunt."
-
*looks at jinx* "don't use and poison while you're hunting we need to eat it after you kill it. and i'll set up the tent... wait, we have more than one right?"
-
*Nods* "Yea i know not to use the posion." *Laughs* "Afriad to cuddle Auto?"
-
ghost laughs "ya auto, ha" ghost said dropping her ba on the ground "yo when ya get some meat bring it back, i got some salt so we can preserve the meat for later"ghost said wearing her armor and taking the water skins, "i'll look for water" she said flying up into the sky to look dowwn and look for a river or such
-
"Alright cool. I'll be back in a bit." *Heads off into woods quielty*
-
"Yeah, we have three tents right now. We might have to get more later.", I said, picking some herbs and other plant life for Xander's dinner. "Hey, Xander, how does a salad sound?"
-
*pitches the tents and starts clearing a fire pit* "hey scyler, you think you can lend a helping fire ball?"
-
ghost found a river, a half mile from the campsite, she landed and filled up the water skins and flew back to camp "hey guys i'm back" ghost said dropping back into camp and putting the skins on the ground, "i got flint and steel for fire if ya want"
-
*looks up from his sticks* "yeah, that would help alot thanks"
-
"ok ghost said getting out the stlle flint and tinder, and passing them to the dog "i'll get some wood" ghost said getting some wood from the woods
-
*puts all the wood in a cone shape and lights it making a medium sized camp fire* "mmmmm..... warm ^^ "
-
ghost comes back with arm ful of wood and dropes then next to the dog fur "can i help" ghost asked sitting next to the dog fur
-
*Finds a suitable tree and hides in it waiting*
-
^^ sure, here *moves over and curles up next to the fire and ghost*
-
I walk into a tent and lay back. I quickly fall asleep and began snoring peacefully.
-
*Sees deer go under tree and jumps on it killing viciously*
-
"ha" ghost laughs grabbing her cloak ad pieling it around the gunnar. and getting her armor off she sat down again
-
*Starts dragging deer back when attack by bear* "Oh no!" *Pulls out daggers and readys himself*
-
*growls comfterbly and sits up a bit making a blanket out of his traveling cloak and offering it to ghost*
-
"you got mine and i got yourse" ghost said pointing to the cloaks and wrappng up in the dogs cloak and waiting for jinx to get back for dinner
-
*laughs looking at the cloaks* "i guess you're right" *curls up in the cloak again* "yours is comfy"
-
*Lashes out at bear missing and gets hit in the ribs by one of its claws making side bleed and Lunging at bear and vicously stabbing daggers into bears throat...... When bear died looked around and notcied that was to much weight for me. and ran back to camp.*
"Hey guys i need helps" *Says while coverd in blood*
-
*looks up* "wow, you were supposed to get dinner, not BECOME dinner"
-
(Jinx edit your post. We can't say that word.)
-
"geees" ghgost said unwrappng from the cloak and getting her armor on "what happened and where is the jerk"
-
*gets up ald readys his rifle* "lets go"
-
(Sorry i seriously need to reads the rules so if i'm a little slow on reposting its because i'm reading rules)
*Points into woods* "Bear attacked me. I manged to kill it. I need help carrying them back to camp." *Runs back into woods*
-
*lowers rifle* "wow... just... wow... okay, hey ghost, wanna help?" *slowly starts walking into woods after the cat*
-
"ok" ghost says following the dog gunnar "we might need to worry about other bears" ghost said after some thought keeping her armo on as they walked into the woods
-
*walks through the woods next to ghost as they find the bear*
-
*Stops at the spot with the dead deer and bear*
-
"holy temple" ghost said looking at the huge bear and the kill next to it "dude, jinx can you get the kill, auto give me a hand" ghost pickes up one paw of the bear, waiting for the gunnar
-
"yep" *grabs the bears other paw ans pulls in the direction of camp*
-
ghost pulls on the paw and within 10 minutes they reach camp "made it" she said "i'll fix this guy up" she said motining to the bear as she started skinning it, within 15 minutes the meat was over the fire and the rest was salted and put away. she then streched the bear fur on the ground and layed down and let the meat cook
-
*sits down on a corner of the bear hide hoping ghost doesn't mind and curls up into a fluffy ball*
-
ghost takes armor off and pulls andres cloak on and puts her cloak on andre
-
*curls up further onto the bear fur and growls softly* "mmmm... comfy"
-
ghost pulls andre on bear into a tent, banks fire eats some meat and crawls into another tent
-
*looks up* "you don't want the fur? i can sleep by the fire"
(gotta go to dinner be back in a few)
-
(..heh...and im bak...)
I stood up and dusted myself off,"..Can I go walk?...".
-
((ok c ya andre- and welcome bak jojobrother))
"you keep the fur" ghost said looking out of the tent "you can walk x, just be careful, and shout if ya need us" ghost said
-
"..Okay....be back in a couple of minutes...".I started off in the direction of the lake that I tend to go to at times.My 'Solitary Santuary'.
-
(back, i murderd dinner lol)
"youre sure you don't want it?" *walks out of the tent and wraps himself in her cloak ploping down next to the fire looking over to see if she want's the fur*
-
"i'm fine dude" ghost said comming back out of the tent wrapped in andres cloak, "wow scylar is in bed without dinner, what did he do to deserve that" ghost said looking at his tent, "also who's tnt is x gonna stay in" ghost asked looking in the direction the archer went
-
"he can take my tent, i'll sleep out here by the fire, sombody's gotta keep it going tonight"
-
"ok but you still keep the fur" ghost said laying down "wake me around midnight, we'll switch watches" ghost said moving back to a tent and going to sleep
-
"okay, thanks" *drags the fur out of the tent and puts it down next to the fire curling up and starting his watch*
-
falls asleep sill snuggled in andres cloak
-
*adds some wood to the fire and curls up in ghosts cloak*
-
I wake up and walk out of the tent. "Hey...", I said walking out of my tent. "I'm gonna go blow off some steam.", I said, giving Mjolnir a few practice swings. "Anyone else wanna come?"
-
*looks up* "sorry man, i'm on watch so ghost can get some sleep, if you stay near by i can join you in a bit tho"
-
"No, I don't want to wake her up. I'll go it alone.", I said, walking off into the woods. My hands began to glow a bright white, causing my hammer to glow as well. "GRRRRAAAHHHHHH!!!", I screamed, slamming my hammer into anearby rock, shattering it in one blow. From there swung it and splintered a dead log. Lastly, I gathered all my rage, sorrow, and despair and released it all in one burst. "GGRRRRRRAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!", I shouted, releasing all the energy in a concentrated explosion with a blast radius of a quarter mile. Feeling drained, I fell to the ground. I soon passed out in the crater created by me.
-
*i hear the explosion* "oh crud... sorry ghost looks like your nap is about to get cut short" *walks over to her tent and crawls in gently shaking her shoulder* "hey, psst, hey ghost, i'm really sorry to wake you, but i need you to take over watch okay?"
-
*Crawls into nearby tree and wtaches camp*
-
"i'm up... i'm up..." ghost said grabbing her knuckles and armor and pulling them on as she gets out of the tent "what with the explosion"
-
*jumps out of the tent after her* "okay, i think scyler is this way" *runs full sprint to scyler yelling his name and sniffing him out*
-
"dude he ran off fast" ghost said getting up and streching "jinx do you want go with them or stay, and i'll go help them" ghost said cracking her knuckles looking at the cat in the tree "if it was an ambush, they might need back up"
-
*screeches to a hault in front of scyler* "Holy cow man! are you alright? scyler?!" *picks him up and straps his hammer to his back running even faster back to camp* "GHOST! i think scyler's hurt!"
-
"wow" ghost said grabbing swiftclaw and putting him on the bear fur when andre and scylar ran into camp, "i don't think he was attacked" ghost said looking him over "do you know what happened andre"
-
"no he was lying in a crater holding this though" *sets the hammer on the ground* "and given the mood he was in when he left i'd say he made the crater himself"
-
"wait" ghost said checking for a pulse and breathing rate "ok then i got an idea" ghost said taking a water skin and emptying it on scylars face "he looked to pass out due to exaustion" ghost said "he dosen't have and bruses that i can hear, and his breathing and pulse is slow"
-
*starts to look through his bag for a potion or something to wake him up and stops* "wait... that you can Hear? what do you mean hear?" O.o
-
"wow you guys didn't realise i'm blind" ghost asked looking astoundedly at the dog fur "my eyes are gray, and i have ears the size of ivalance, i see with echolocation, sould waves bouncing off other objects, it's the same with light, but shapes and colors come back to our eyes, but with sound i only see shapes" ghost said still making her face "look" tward the dog fur
-
*is a bit suprised* "wow o.o i didn't know, so... you can hear every little sound i make? can you follow a heart beat?"
-
My body began to glow again. "RUN!!! GTFO OF HERE!!!!", I shouted, my eyes snapping open. I ran back into the forest, glowing in a bright white light. Then, it happened again. My rage got the better of me and a wave of light shot from my body, flattening trees around me in a half mile radius. I stood just stared at the carnage that I had caused. Trees were laying flat against the ground. I slowly walked back to the camp, drained of my rage. I finally made it back to the camp.
-
"if i listened hard enough yes" ghost said to andre and standing up and leading swiftclaw over to the fire to lay down "dude eat some food" ghost said grabbing a stick and impailing some meat in it and giving it to the tiger
-
*is compleatly bemused by the last few seconds of action but rolls with it* "uuuh..... wow, i think i'm gonna go back to sleep, unless you want me to watch him while you finish sleeping ghost"
(i gotta go for a bit, be back later)
-
((ok see ya dude))
"naw it cool you can sleep, i'll watch him" ghost said pointing her ears to the tiger next to her and laughing
-
"okay, night'" *heads back to the tents and sees they're all taken exept for the one ghost was using, so he crawls in and curls up in the back corner, still wearing her cloak for warmth*
(well, be back later)
-
"Thanks Ghost.", I said, taking the meat and chewing it. "I don't know what's happening to me. It's so strange.", I said in between bites.
-
"mabey you should wait here, with one of us" ghost said turning her head away from the tiger "i mean if you still feel bad, the other two people will go to the cloest town, and either get help, o get you a ride" ghost said "mabey the people at the white mage acadamy will help or we can get you to someplace that will be able to help you" ghost said thinking of a cart or horse to get the tiger back to town
-
"I can travel and I'm not hurt. I just don't know why I'm having these outbursts of rage.", I said, leaning back, staring at the sky.
-
"hmmm" ghost said layin down with her feet closer to the fire staruing with blank eyes at the sky "well i don't know what to do then this is new"
-
"I'm just so angry that I have to find a way to let all of this anger out of me.", I said, looking back at the fire. Slowly an idea popped into my head as I reached for my book of illusionry.
-
ghost heard him reach for his book "dude, what are you planing" ghost asked sitting up an turning to the tiger mage
-
"Shh! Just listen... You might like what you see.", I said, standing up. I flipped through a few pages and conjured a very entertaining spell. I made a small ball of light and gave it a certain sound. I did this with over twenty other orbs of light. I then arranged all of the orbs in a circle. "Now, listen...", I said, pointing to an orb of light. It then made the noise I assigned it. It sounded like small stream trickling over rocks. I pointed to another that sounded like crickets chirping in the dark of night. I pointed to another and it sounded like the crackling of a campfire. "Now you give it a try.", I said, giving each orb a soft low pitch so she could see them. "This is a trick I used to cheer up a freind once. You might enjoy it.", I said leading her into the circle and stepping out of it.
-
*hears some noise outside the tent and crawls to the open end seeing what's going on* ~laugh "wow, that looks cool, and it looks like ghost is having fun" *he said as he continues to watch*
-
"wow what is this" ghost asked awe struck listining to the soothing sounds around her, she felt instantly at peace, loud sounds hurt but soft ones are the best thing she could hear, she falls to the ground in a deep relaxing sleep, and starts breathing easily
-
*steps outside and covers her in her cloak then walks over to scyler* "wow, nice job, hey, you look spent, if you want to get some sleep i'll take over watch"
-
"First, go find a sound you like. I'll show you a trick I learned from my father, long ago.", I said, walking over to the crackling fire and trickling stream sounds. I took one in each hand and turned around. I chanted a small spell from memory and clenched my fists around the orbs. The light disappeared and in my hands were two orbs, one as clear as the purest water, the other the color of a slowly dying fire. I put the two solidified orbs next to Ghost. "Now she can listen to those relaxing sounds whenever she wants."
-
"wow, that's really cool, that was nice of you" *i said, then i poked a few of the orbs wondering what sould they would make, hearing wind, rain, birds, and other sounds* "hey, this sounds just like the rain on my roof at home, cool" *i say poking at it again*
-
"Alright, give me a minute.", I said, plucking the orb out of the air. I then turned it into an orb that looked like water was constantly falling on the inside of it. "Here. Enjoy!", I said, before dispelling the orbs and letting the sounds go free. I then lay down by the fire and fell asleep, spent from the energy required to use the spells.
-
*slips the orb into my pocket smiling then carrys ghost back to her tent* "sleep well" *and lays down next to the fire on watch*
-
*Jumps down from tree and joins camp*
-
ghost lays down listining to the crackling fire, she wakes at being moved but the sound of the fire puts her to sleep again, but not before she mutters something unintellegable in half sleep and starts snoring in tempo with the crackling fire
-
*smiles at ghost's snoring feeling strangely at peace with the world trying to stay awake and alert*
-
I wake up and crawl out of my tent. I get up, stretch, and walk over to Andre. "Go get some sleep, I'll take next watch.", I said, sitting next to him and putting Mjolnir nearby.(weapon name not stolen from HALO. It's an actual weapon in final fantasy)
-
*yawns* "ugh... okay, thanks man" *he pats scyler on the shoulder and heads to his tent then realises all the tents are taken* "crap, uh... i'll just crash out here" *he curls up on the ground in front of the tents and shivers a bit before falling asleep*
-
I pull an extra blanket out of my pack and hand it to Andre. "Here, this'll keep the chills off ya."
-
*takes it and curls up on the ground* "thanks bro that helps alot" *puts the orb next to his ears and falls asleep*
-
I sit and just stare at the night sky. Suddenly, I hear a twig snap to my left. I slowly move my hand to grip Mjolnir.
(If ANYONE wants to join, now would be a good time)
-
ghost wakes up hearing the twig crack, in the acadamy they had been taught to be light sleepers, she pulled on her knuckles and waited hearing the breathing of andre scylar, x and jinx znd somebody else
-
I barely even whisper, "Ghost, can you tell who it is?"
-
*is exausted from being on watch all night and fails to wake up at the slight sound*
-
"some body is there" ghost murmered quietly as him "it's just one just outside of the trees" ghost said listining "soundslike he is a bit nervious, could be another bandid, also sounds like he has some basic armor, nothing metal" ghost finished moving slightly to poke her dog friend "andre wake up" she wispered into his ear
-
(somebody new, doesn't matter who, please join)
"Andre, don't move.", I whisper as I put my paw on his shoulder. "Just wait for my signal."
-
*opens one eye to see ghost and scyler clearly and nods ever so slightly*
-
(could we ask the soldier who joind in a bit ago, mabey he will hop in and join us)
ghost made sure all was ready then sliped out of the back of the tent and flew up into the sky, silently, she didn't earn her nick name for tnothing as she landed behind the unknown person in a branch, still silently, without alerting her presents to anyone
-
*slides his rifle up from under the blanket*
-
(I don't think he's online right now)
I tighten my grip on Mjolnir and get ready to smash some heads.
-
*Hides behind tents and slowly draws daggers*
-
Slowly walks into the campsite wondering what was going on. Heading in the woods looking for something to hunt down.
-
with a war call ghost springs from the trees and flys donw and tackles the new fur, ready to punch the living daylights out of him
-
(c'mon man, introduce your character. Read the first post and post again. Everyone wait up for a sec.)
-
*Smiles and slowly leaves shadows of hiding spot daggers at ready*
-
(ok swiftclaw)
-
"Oh my goodness dude! Why all the violence dude I was just trying to see what is this campground." says the little 4'4'' Eurasian Lynx.
(Name:Zabyy Age:18 Job:Monk Race:Eurasian Lynx Weapons:Fists Start off:Walking toward mysterious campsite Special Skills:Super fist damage and medatation.)
-
ghost looks didtrustlingly at the fur pinned beneath her knuckles, and got up "who are you" ghost asked
-
"Hold up Ghost.", I said getting up and walking over to the pinned fur. "Who are you? And why were you poking around our campsite?"
-
*Smiles and cracks neck still has daggers out*
-
"I am Zabyy a simple monk wandering through the woods. I saw a compsite and thought I would see whats up." Says the little furry shaking in fear.
-
"Ghost, let him up. He seems friendly.", I said, putting out a paw to help him up.
-
ghost stands up and moving a ways away
-
*jumps up and walks to the edge of the camp looking for more people* "HEY JINX! stand down!"
(sorry for suddenly going poof zabby is my friend irl and i needed to get off so he could get on, now i'm on another comp)
-
(whoa, the furs at the same school all relatively new and on the same thread? That's ****** awesome!!)
-
"Man..... Alright." *Puts away daggers and sighs*
-
(yeah, we play D&D together, and i decided to tell them i was a furry, a week or so later this is the result lol)
*finding nobody in the woods he walks up to the lynx* "hey there, who are you again?"
-
Taking the offered hand and stands up. Still a little shaky "What's up with all of you? You seem so... alert? Why is this?" Dusting off his clothing.
-
"Whats your name Monk?" *Crossing arms and keeps eyes contrated on lynx*
-
(cool phantom gett, wolfgang and i are the same, we play shadowrun (its a table top rpg like d&d but set in the future, its where i got my idea for the good bad and furry rp) and wolfgang said he was a fur so my bro and i joined in)
ghost sat down and waited removing her knuckles "hello, i'm ghost, thats scylar, andre and jinx" ghost said pointing to every body
-
*cough* "we just finished dealing with some bandits still got some energy and yes, what is your name?" *stands next to ghost eyeing him*
(sounds really cool)
-
*Sighs again and sneaks off into a nearby tree*
-
"Hello... I am Zabyy... I umm... bandits?" Standing completely still and looking at everyone a hint of fear followed by a hint of madness in his eyes.
-
(thanks thats so weird really)
ghost listens to the monks rapidly beating heart, "yep" ghost confirmed
-
"You didn't happen to train at the Ivalice monk academy, did you?", I asked. "By the way, we're the chosen ones. The four crystals chose us. Xander, Jinx, Andre, and I, Scyler, are the chosen four."
-
*Watches over the camp while hidden in a tree*
-
*looks the fur up and down* "yeah, and what are you doing out here at night?"
-
"he sounds famaliar" ghost said casting out sound at the monk in front of her "dude it is you what up" ghost said hugging the fur "this guy here was my friend a while ago before he left the acadamy, we played so many practile jokes on the bangaa teachers" ghost laughed
-
*Looks around in woods and notcies small group of bandits creeping on camp. and signals others*
-
ghost pulls on her knuckles and readying her self to fight at jinx's singnal
-
*drops to a knee with his rifle*
-
*Sneaks from tree and into shadows near tents and readys daggers*
-
"Is that you? I am sorry my memory isn't the best..." *hmmm combat* he says as he looks around slowly getting ready for battle by leaping an easy 8 feet into the air.
-
ghost jumps back ward and smashes into the first bandit that came through the trees "it cool that was a while ago" ghost said round house kicking another guard in the face
-
*Launches into a bandit with both daggers ripping and tearing at the bandits face*
-
*fires his rifle dropping another bandid* "HA!"
(i gotta go i'm being kicked out of the library, so is zabby)
-
"Sorry, guys. I'm too exhausted for any large magic spells. Let's crush some skulls!", I said, holding Mjolnir and facing the pack of bandits(6). If that wasn't enough, a few monsters(3) were trying to creep up on the other side. "Zabby, come with me! We'll guard the other end of the campsite!", I said, running off to the other side of the camp.
-
((me 2 i got scool blah, see ya 2 maro guys nite))
-
(I'll be on at around 2:20. See y'all in the evening. Nite nite)
-
(Later)
-
ghost smashed another bandit breaking his nose, and pushing him back (5 bandits) then flying up and diving and crashing into a monster at 200 mph (2 monsters)
-
I swing Mjolnir and crush a monster(1). I then toss the monster into the air and hit it like a baseball into a bandit trying to sneak up on Andre, killing the bandit(4).
-
*Jumps at one of the monster vicously stabbing and slashing*
-
ghost swings her fist and cracks another bandits arm (3 bandits, 0 monsters) but a bandit smashes his axe into her leg, breaking a bone and breaking the skin to the bone "AGGGGGG" ghost lets out a cry of pain and stumbles back, falling down and clutching her leg
-
*screams a battle cry to frighten the gods and charges with his pistol, shooting the bandit in the chest and smashing his skull with the pistols handle, then picks up the axe and slamms it into anothers chest, finally jumping on the last ripping at the throat with his teeth* "Nobody hurts my companions!"
-
"Cura!!!", I shout running over to ghost, palm outstretched and facing her. A light jumped from my palm and engulfed her, slowly healing her wounds.
-
*runs to ghost's side* "Are you okay?!?!"
-
"gggg" ghost moans as her leg heals, when the white light stops she trys to stand up but falling back dwn "aggg" ghost said her leg still hurt really bad, almost like it was on fire
-
"Just to be sure... Esuna!!", I shout, making sure no toxins could end up poisoning her for a while.
-
*looks at scyler* "hey, can you boost a magical spell for me?" *i say as my paw starts to glow* "i can't do any thing like that, but i can help the pain go away"
-
ghost quiets down her leg only aching now "oww, you guys ok" sh asked looking around, still holding her leg "u got magic andre" ghost asked the gunnar dog
-
"not really" *he said turning to ghost* "it's a spell fused to my body like a tatoo, it helps me heal comerades in battle, well, helps them fight longer anyway, but it eases pain pretty well"
-
"woow" ghost said looking at the dog with a new understanding "i'm fine now" ghost said rubbing her face trying to get over the shock of so much pain, she scooted over to the fire and laying down "sorry guys"
-
*sits down next to her and rubs his glowing paw over her leg where it was wounded* "that should keep it from flairing up later..... by the way, i was impressed by your fighting ^^ "
-
I ran back to the group as fast as I could,panting when I got there."..~pant~Hey Guys!...~pant~ I heard some arguing going on..~pant~..."
-
"Sorry, Andre. That's out of my league.", I said, sitting next to Ghost by the fire.
-
"it's okay man, i think i maneged to do what i wanted" *looks up at jojo* "hey, you missed quite a party"
-
"i'm fine nice fighting andre" ghost said turning on her back to look at andre with her face pointing tward him, then looked at swiftclaw "thanks man for the magic, you to andre"
-
I walked over to them and sat down,cross-legged,then rubbed my eyes,"...Im Sorry..."
-
"Yeah, no problem. It'll be dawn in an hour. We'd best be moving on.", I said, standing up. "Zabby, you want to join us? We could always use another fur on our journey."
-
Finally realising that the combat is over. "Oh my... Did I miss another round of combat? I completly blanked out there for a minute. I hate it when that happens." Looks around sees the injuries. "I am soo sorry, I..." suddenly looking around. Ears perk up as he starts sniffing around. "Do any of you sense that?" As he creeps down on all four crouching low to the ground.
-
*smiles* "you too ghost, and i didn't do that much, just a little pain killer" *looks over to Xander* "hey man, no biggie" *looks at zabby* "no what?"
-
"uggg" ghost moaned standing up and getting her armor on and picked up the crackling fire orb and fell asleep instantianiously, right next to andre, and she started snoring
-
*lays the blanket scyler gave him part way over her using a corner of it himself and fell asleep too*
-
"Neither of you sense the..." He says as he crawls around on the ground. Stopping a few yards from the campsite. "Whatever it is or was it is... or was right here." Looking down at a small hole in the ground.
-
I walked over to a tree about 30 feet away from tthe group and curled up under it.
-
ghost woke up again, with difuclity "dang orbs" she said covering her ears and covering the orb with a cloak, "so we have a sub terianian enemy"
-
*is woken up by her moving* "wha? what is it?"
-
"we got a unknown enemy under ground" ghost said yawning her eyelids drooping
-
*muzzles her trying to get her alert* "okay, where is it? right under us?"
-
I felt the earth under me move under me,"..What the heck?...".I got one of my arrows and stabbed at the ground
-
ghost looks at the shaking ground "great, it sounds big" ghost yawns again
-
*i jump up looking for a tree to climb, then gently shake ghost* "ghost, scyler, get high!!!" *i yell to xander* "get away from it!"
-
"Here, this should get him out... Watera!", I shout, causing a geyser to erupt from the ground, sending the underground event into the air.
-
"..WHOA!!..".I fell back on my butt and grabbed for my bow,aiming at the giant worm.
-
*i spin around mid-way to a tree and ready my rifle* "What the heck?"
-
ghost spun her leg out the spikes digging into the worm, acid spraying out on her "agg, don't touch it" ghost yelled backing away picking up stones and throwing them at the worm
-
*blasts it with a shot from his rifle careful to not hit his party with acid spray from the wound*
-
"Time for fun!!!" I yell as I start jumping higher and higher into the sky. After clearing 20 or so feet I start to pound my fists together. "You all ready?"
-
*watches this in amazement* "holy... DUDE!" *then re-loads* "just don't touch it!"
-
I dodged acid blobs then rolled off of my back,into a backflip,and onto my feet,putting three arrows in at once and firing.
-
*Lands on the ground thrusting one last time soaring over 40 feet into the air.* "This is going to HURT!!" I yell as I start to spin on my way down. Landing a solid blow right to its head. Splitting its craphace in two and getting drenched in acid. "AwwwHaaaHAA That hurts so good!" Landing on all four 10 feet away. "That should be a weak spot now" in a painfilled voice.
-
"Protect!! Astra!!!", I shouted, casting spells that would protect us from physical damage and the acid. "Get it!!", I shout, bashing it into the air with Mjolnir.
-
"GET DOWN!!!!!!!!!!" *Fires a shot right into the crack zabby made blowing the cretures head up*
-
ghost picks up a huge rock the size of a sheep and throws it at the worm "are you ok man" she asked looking at the acid drenched monk, before smashing my fists into the worm rapid fire
-
*runs to aid ghost in fisishing it off*
(gtg, be back in 5-10 min)
-
((kk see ya soon))
-
"I should be alright... I..." As I pass out in pain.
-
"Curaga!!!", I shout, using the rest of my strength to heal Zabby.
-
*Coming to in a spinning fiery burst of strength lashing at the rest of the corpse of the worm.* yelling "Thank you!!"
-
ghost watches as the worm falls dead "i'm gonna wash off this acid in the river, any one want to join me" ghost said taking off her armor sho she could swin in her travle clothes and not be weighed down
-
*jumps over to ghost* "sure, i'll join"
-
"..I'll go...worms make me cringe..."
-
"ok then" ghost says yawning walking into the forest till she gets to the river and waides in
-
*follows to the river and takes off his shirt and dives in* "BRRRR!! cold o.o "
-
*passed out from exhaustion of over using magic*
-
*splashes ghost a bit trying to lighten the mood* "wow, poor scyler used alot of magic today, he's prolly out cold... well, he deserves rest, and jinx and zabby are there to protect him"
-
I slowly got in,jaws chattering.
-
"ya" ghost said getting the acid off and getting out of the river, shaking her head dry of water "i hope we can sleep for a bit lnger" ghost said yawning
-
*climbs out and shakes himself dry on all fours floofing out into a furry ball with pants* "yeah, i'm kinda exausted"
-
((Sorry for the disappear, been busy)) He had made his way back to town before night-time fell, stopping at an inn and paying for his room and board.
-
*returns to camp with the others* "woah, scyler looks messed up" *lifts the tiger and takes him to his tent covering him in a blanket* "he looks okay, just totally spent" *returns to the bear hide and lays down, a huge floofy ball of fur*
-
Snores gently and smiles in sleep.
-
"night guys" ghost said going into a tent and laying down
-
*shivers a bit remembering he doesn't have a shirt and falls asleep*
-
<skipping to morning>
I wake up and stretch my limbs before walking to the stream to get a drink. I leaned down and cupped the water in my paw and drank it, savorinh the cold of the water. I walked back to the campsite and quickly began to pack things up.
-
"ugg" ghost said getting up and getting her armor on and then her cloak, then packed up her stuff, and walking outside passing some salted meat from the bear and deer from last night to every one "looks like it's gonna rain, here" ghost said giving the meat to the tiger and turning it tward the sky
-
*rolls over in his sleep and growls, stull poofy as heck*
-
"wake up andre" ghostsaiid kneeling down and gently shaking his pufy arm
-
"Sorry, but spell to ward off rain is out of my league. However, i can eadily waterproof our coats.", I said, munching on the salted venison. "Zabby, you still around?"
-
"my cloak is fine" ghost said still tying to wake up andre "i don't know where zabbys or jo or jinx is" ghost said looking around
-
*rolls over with his paws in the air and makes a nyuff noise opening his eyes* "huh?"
-
drops the meat into andres mouth "come on eat breakfast and pack up, and we can hit the road" ghost said taking down the tent she used rolling it into a small package
-
*rolls over eating and gets up to look for a shirt or cloak to cover his half-nekkid body* "urgh... where the heck?"
-
"Here.", I say, handing Andre a green shirt with a leathery brown vest. "I can't wear it anymore. I'm stuck in these robes."
-
I walked back to the camp,"...-Slept near the lake last night..."
-
*takes it* "thanks, i was feeling indecent there >.< " *lays his fur flat and gets dressed* "i wonder where my cloak went though"
-
"cool" ghost said passing some meat over to jojo and picking up andres cloak and passed it to him
-
I caught it in the air with my mouth and held it there,taking my arrow holder and bow off,and eating hungrily.
-
*takes the cloak from her* "hey thanks! that's where i left it"
-
*ground rumbles* *soon later water spurts from the ground* "Yeehaaa!" I yell as I come flinging out of the ground perfectly fine. Landing right above the newly created whole in the ground.
-
WHAT THE?!?!
-
"nice entrance.", I said, hoisting up my pack. "Let's go. We don't have much time before it starts raining."
-
"hello" ghost said throwing meat at the lynx "what up"
-
*grabs the lynx in a wolf hug and yells* "HEY MAN! SUP"
-
"I still don't understand why you all sleep on top of the ground, when it is soo much nicer underneith." I say dunsting off the dirt from my cloths.
-
"becouse i'd rather make a den or use a cave"
-
I began to walk down the road, feeling very refreshed and ready for anything.
-
I put my arrows in the holder then slung the holder over my back,grabbed my bow,and ran after the others.
-
*i roll up the bear's hide and put it on my pack walking next to scyler and ghost* "Lets go!" *jumps a little when he walks*
-
ghost stays right behind the tiger slightly bored, the senery wasn't much diffrent from before and in her boredom took out the fire orb, scylar gave her, and put it near the top of her pack, so she cold listen while she walked
-
*walked slightly ahead of the group tossing the rain orb into the air enjoying the sounds*
-
I pull out an orb I had made for myself. I rarely used it because it was very personal. It was the first song I had ever heard. It was uplifting but slightly depressing at the same time. I had made this orb when I was 8. It was old and the sound had begun to fade. However, I couldn't make a new orb until I heard the real song again. Not just the one in the orb. I quickly put the orb away and kept walking down the road. "Stop... Nobody move. Someone is watching us from those woods.", I said, halting the group. I pulled out Mjolnir and held it, ready to be used on a whim. (anybody wanna join? Here's the last chance for a while...)
-
*Steps out of woods.* "Woops."
-
Name:Wolfgang
Age:22
Job: Warrior
Race:Vulpine
Weapons: longsword, dagger
Where you start off: In a training academy for sword training
Special skills: Can use 2 longswords at once
Wolfgang was training with another warrior using daggers. His opponent was a wolf, one of the strongest warriors in the academy. Wolfgang easily dodged his thrusts, the wolf was strong but a bit clusmy. Wolfgang ducked as the wolf thrusted his blade and Wolfgang kicked it out of his hand and put his dagger to his throat. "Alright guys, good fight." said the headmaster of the building. The headmasters jestered Wolfgang to come over to him and he did. "Wolfgang, you did better than I ever expected." He said. "Thank you." Wolfgang said in a monotone voice. Wolfgang listened to the headmaster as he talked and when he was finished he headed out the door for a walk through the woods.
-
I perked my ears and saw a shadow walking behind Jinx. I motioned to him and whispered, "Get down!!" I swiftly ran over to a tree nearby and climbed it. From there I could see who the fur was. It was a fox, wearing typical warriors clothes and carried a longsword and a dagger. He looked like he was still in training but appeared to be better than most gave him credit for. I hopped out of the tree and greeted him. "Hey, where are you headed?"
-
*steps closer to his companions rubbing his pistol*
-
"hello wolfgang" ghost said to her child hood friend before the monk acadamy, they would chill and play pranks togeather "long time no see"
-
*Looks from Wolfgang to Ghost with hands on daggers*
-
*lets go of his pistol* "geeze ghost, do you know EVERYONE!? lol
-
"hey i travle around" ghost said clasping forearms with wolfgang
-
I lower Mjolnir to the ground and lean on the handle. "So, Wolfgang is it? Where are ya headed?"
-
*Sighs and moves hands away from daggers*
-
"knowing wolfy" ghost satrted out laughing "he's just enjoying a walk, and has nothing better to do than goof off" ghost said pushing her friend "just kidding dude just kidding"
-
"Oh, cool. So, you think he might want to join us?", I said, hoping we could add another member to our crew.
-
"i don't know he might, and probably will but he's not like me looking for an adventure, whenever you get the chance" ghost said to her tiger friend
-
"Well, he's been your friend since you were kids. I'm pretty sure he would give you an honest answer on if he wanted to go or not.", I' said, leaning against the handle of my hammer.
-
((I seem to come on at the oddest times.)) Having a restless night in the inn, Vosur got up and gathered his gear together before heading out of his room, stopping only to leave a tip at the innkeeper's desk.
-
Pulls out his dagger and thruster into a tree to practice. His instructor wanted him to practice more.
-
"That's right, I have to do something..." With finger tapping on shin. "Oh yes... I have to pound at the floor? Pound the ground? Yes that's it! POUND THE GROUND!!!" As I start to wail at the ground with everything I have leaving a small 2' crater.
-
omg "Umm, Zabby? What exactly are you doing?"
-
(from zabby)
"I am increasing my resistance with the ground. It helps strengthen my fists for when I hit things!" Still unleashing on the same spot. The crater is now about 4' deep. "Going to have to jump out of this one when I get done!"
-
"ya i do the same thing but i normally us rocks or trees" ghost said "come on we got to reach the next town soon, see ya later wolfy, it was nice talking to ya" ghost said turning and walking down the road
-
"Yeah, we've gotta get going.", I said, picking my warhammer back up and shouldering it. "Lets go."
-
"cool, where exactly is the enemy you four are supposed to vanquish" ghost said turning around "unlike me you guys are the chosen ones"
-
"We're headed towards Ixcathia. The dark king is going to bring ruin and destruction to Ivalice if we don't stop him."
-
"right witch way do we go" ghost asked facing a forkin the road "i don't have a map, i had one but it didn't help me at all"
-
"Well, there's a small town on the left. Should we go there?"
-
"i don't know, mabey we should stop in the town, get some info about the situation in ivalance, side we might need to stop in for some supplies" ghost said pointing to her pack "then again if there is a town to the right, we can head there and try to cover more distance" ghost said thinking, "i think we should go left, we covered a lot of distance yesterday and once we get some supplies we can keep going till it gets dark, then set up camp, in the woods"
-
"Sounds good. Let's go.", I said, walking off down the road on the left. "We should make it to the town shortly."
-
"ok then" ghost said following behind the tiger
-
When we reached the town, I gave everyone 250 gil. "That should be enough for some supplies and a good meal. Get rested up and fed and keep an ear perked for any information on the situation here in Ivalice. We'll meet back up here in around an hour and a half."
-
"ok" ghost said walking into town buys a tent, another set of clothes, bought a sharpening stone, and a helmet, with a chain mail skirt to protect the neck, some rice, and walked into a tavern, and got a cheap dinner and walked back to where she left scylar, and waited for the rest of her friends
-
I walked into a tavern and walked up to the bar. "Hey, barkeep. You got any info on the situation in Ivalice?"
"Ixcathia has an army of the undead marching on the capital."
"Thanks.", I said, slipping 25 gil to him under the counter. I walked out into the streets andmade my way to a small restaraunt. I ate and realized I still had 200 gil left. I decided I'd go and get some nice gloves. I walked into an old mages store and walked up to the counter. I looked and saw a pair of white gloves with the red triangle fringe pattern on them that matched my robes. "How much for those?", I asked the Mage, pointing to the gloves.
"Those gloves are 200 gil. They increase the power of white magic and resistance to black magic."
"Hmm. I'll give you 150 for them."
"175!"
"Deal.", I said, handing him his gil. I put the gloves on and walked out of the store. I went to the general store and picked up some potions and ethers with my leftover money and met up at the designated area.
-
"hey scylar" ghost said to the tiger, she had just finished chatting with a shaggy golden flopy eared dog "i heard that there is a bandit group in the area, some furs have already had there homesteads ransacked" ghost said in an under tone. "they seem diffrent from normal bandits, aparently they come, and they ransack, but they don't take as much stuff as regular bandits, they keep attacking many places but not taking much, they'll take some silver and horses, but they leave the live stock and grain, or the other stuff, its as if they are looking for something, but can't find it"
-
*wanders through the town looking for supplies, ammo, powder, food, the usual, and suddenly stops, in front of him in a window was the finest rifle he had ever seen, two barrels over under with a beutiful stock, he HAD to have it, but it was much too far out side his price range, even if he sold his own rifle he would be a ways away from it.... maybe he could find a way to raise money* <much much much handy man and laymen work around town later> *he walked up to the others with just enough gil in his pocket for a night at an inn and a meal, compleatly out of energy and in a fair amount of pain, but his new rifle felt good on his back* "hey guys"
-
"dude cool rifel" ghost said looking at thge new gun on andres back
-
"Sweet. What caliber is it?"
-
*rubs the stock smiling* ".54 cal it was a real chore to get, but so worth it. so where are we staying tonight?"
-
((gtg im gonna sleep over my dad's to night, see ya to maro guys))
-
(Later ghost HAVE FUN!)
-
(see ya tomorrow)
"There should be a fairly large inn up ahead. We can stay there. Keep your weapons closeby in case of a bandit raid."
-
*thumbs the doubble lever hammers grinning* "one can only hope"
-
*Walkin around town to the worst looking bar he could find, walking in with a smile on his face* "I challenge any of you to an arm wrestling contest!" *As the beggest baddest guy comes out from the back, an easy 8' tall 500lb huge Grizzly Fur* "umm... okay being it on!" *The two get around a table and get ready* "on your mark get set... I WIN!!" Within seconds little Zabby had won the contest. "anyone else?" *Gathering up his money and looking around the bar." *An even bigger woman came out of the croud* "Okay I will accept any challenge" getting ready with the 8+' Grizzly looking female fur and setting his arm on the table. "ready set... I WIN!!!" even faster Zabyy won even more money. "I am sorry, but I have to go, round of drinks on me!" *As he tosses some money to the bar keep walking outside with his newly found money. *Finds a an old mages store* "hello sir, do you have... Those right there!" I say looking at a pair of worn out boots. "How much for those?" the old fur looks at the boots realizing he had forgotten he had them. "I don't know... How about 50gil?" I reply with a slight spark in my eye. "I will give you 75gil sir, for you seem like an someone I can trust." *handing the fur a small pouch of gil taking the boots butting them on and walking out of the store to where the others had sepperated from* "Hey how are you all" showing off his new boots, even though his money pouch seems to have more in it then he started with.
-
*looks over at zabby* "nice boots, whadda'ya think of my gun?"
-
"Can you use it well enough? It seems a little... heavier then what you used before. Not saying anything about your strength though, just maybe your speed." With fear in his eye after his 6th word.
-
"my speed? the bullet is my speed, you can't out run that ^.^ " *runs at a building a little slower than before but still without effort running 2 steps up the wall and spinning around, landing in a crouched marksmans pose* "i think i'll manage"
-
(yo i get to use my dads mac. i did a bit of sharp shooting 2day 18 shots in a row w/ my dads marlin model 60 micro grove 22 caliber rifle with tasco scope, at 25 yards and 8/10 shots in a 4" diameter circle at 65 yards, also i got 3 slugs in a 7" diameter circle with my remington 870 express 410 caliber at 65 yards)
"very nice andre, i think were safe, bewear all wrong dooers sharp shot andre is in range" ghost laughed
-
(i hate you >.< i can't even have my carry pistol here let alone my .308, 7.63X39mm, or my Remington 870 express super magnum. nice shot grouping by the way)
*laughs and lowers the rifle* "yeah, evil doers beware"
-
(thanks man, my dad has some friends out in the country so i get to shoot withoput being a danger to anyone, and my dad has a carry licence so its leagle i hope,)
"ha" ghost laughed imitating a bandit "duck in cover sharp shot is here" as she ducks behind a barrel laughing and standing up "so where is the big place were staying at, we shouldn't have to worry about the bandits if were in the town, the guards should be able to handle it if they come in" ghost said noting a guard about 20 paces away with a sword and full armor
-
*coughs from laughin too hard* "eh.. ah... but yeah, where are we staying?"
-
"Nice boots, Zabby. So, let's go to that inn on the other side of town and sleep there."
-
"ok scylar" ghost said walking to the tavern, reaching it in a few minutes
-
I follow her inside and rent a room for myself and Xander. I notice he's already nodding off so I take him upstairs and lay him in the bed. "Sleep well, brother. I have to go make a plan of attack." I waked over to Ghost and sat down. "We need a plan."
-
"i agree" ghost set down her pack and sat at a table "ok do you have a map, it might help you" ghost said picking up a map out of her pack, "i forgot i stuffed this here, any way where is this town" ghost asked putting the map of ivalance on the table
-
"Well, we started off over in the city of Moorabella. From there, we've headed south and west to a smaller town that isn't listed on the map but should be right here.", I said, pointing to a spot on the map and tracing it with my finger so she could "see" the path. "Ixcathia is across the sea, so we'll need to make it to Grazston so we can catch a ship over there."
-
"when we get to grazston i got a few ideas for getting across, so we shouldn't worry about getting across now. how far is it from here to grazston" ghost asked tapping her fingers on the map where we were
-
"By foot, it's close to a nine day trip. If we rent some chocobos(google it) we could easily make it in three."
-
"right" ghost said thinking "i could fly, but thats still 5 chocobos, and we'll have to get them back here, and we have to feed them right" ghost said counting "and will they help us if we are attacked" ghost asked thinking
-
*i walk down stairs to see ghost and scyler talking over a map, it looked important so i decided to get some food and leave them alone, so he walked down to the tables and got some meat from the inn keeper*
-
"i think we should buy 2 chocobos have them carry our stuff" ghost said leaning back "we can move faster without our gear to carry, if we get attacked we can fight without dismounting or fancy manuvering on chocobo back, and we can sell them in the next town we visit, making the travel time mabey a 5 or 6 day trip, but its up to you dude, we came to the town instead of pushing on like i wanted, you choose what we do now" ghost said she could fly and fight if worst came to worst on the road
-
"Hmm, I think that you're right. But, we can just go catch a chocobo or two. There's a herd of them nor am hour away from here and it's in the direction were going. Then, we could make a profit off of them. But there are some other towns we will need to stop in on the way." Suddenly I hear the crash of breaking glass and screaming. "Son of a- Sounds like bandits!!", I say, running up to my room and grabbing my war hammer. I ran our the door and saw a group of rough looking furs(5) and humans(3) attacking the townsfolk. "Ghost, we can plan later, there's bandits we have to deal with immediately!!"
-
*i drop my food at the sounds of a raid and run upstairs to get my rifle, i look out the window to see the bandits attacking a woman and i shoot the two of them with my rifle, the .54 slugs throwing them to the ground*
-
"****" tears off cloak and launches razored knuckles at bandit taking him down and round house kicking another to the face (1 fur 3 humans)
-
*drops the last fur with a pistol shot and jumps down in the middle of the others cracking his knuckles* "let's play a little game" *starts relentlessly beating one of them*
-
grabbs a table and throws it at a human then grabs a hold of another knocking him out (1 human left)
-
*goes a little animal and mauls the last one* <video cencord for little kids lol>
-
"andre chill" ghost yells keeping a hold on the unconsiouc bandit in her arms and dragging him up into her room and tieing him up, and walking back down stairs "come on guys we got some business to take care of first" ghost said shouldering her discarded pack and map and walking up stairs
-
*snickers a bit at her tieing the guy up in her bedroom then goes to his room to wash the blood off*
-
"shut up andre" ghost said cracking her knuckles and picking up the unconcious bandit with his hands tied togeather and his feet tied togeather and brought him into scylars room "come on guys"
-
*snickers a bit quieter following*
-
(we'll wait for scylar)
scowls at andre before grabbing a bucket and filling it with ice cold water
-
"I'll be there in a minute!" I shouted, running after a straggler trying to get away. I leaped with my hammer over my head and brought it down on the furs head with a sickening crunch. He lifelessly fell on the ground, unconscious. I carried him back to my room as well. "Just in case on won't talk." I said with a smirk. "Don't start Andre...", I warned him.
-
*innocently looks off into space whistleing then starts re-loading his guns*
-
"good we got a back up" ghost said handing the filled bucket to scylar and tieing the other bandit up and shoving him in a corner, then splashing half of th water on the first bandit, waking him
-
"Wha- What?! Who are you?"
I grab for one of Jinx's knives and hold it to his throat. "We'll be the ones asking the questions! Such as, Who do you work for?!"
-
(dude you can make him talk)
cracks knuckles menencialy smiling evily
-
*starts searching the KO'd one looking for and papers or letters to identify him* "this one has nothing on him"
-
"I-I-I... Please don't hurt me!!!", he broke down crying and sobbing.
"We wont if you tell us everything you know. Otherwise, I'm sure your freind will talk." I pointed at the other fur knocked out cold in the corner. "Now, TALK!!"
He was still crying and sobbing but he managed to tell us some of what we needed to know. "I1I w-w-work for t-the lord of F-F-Flourgis, across the sea. I w-was shipwrecked and was left w-with n-n-nothing but a s-s-s-sword... S-so I joined a group of b-b-b-bandits to make enough to b-b-barely g-g-get by..." He began sobbing uncontrollably again. "Dangit... We just had to get the new guy... Andre, bring in the next guy. As for you, go get a job. I see you only did this out of desparation. Now get out of here and change your ways before I change my mind!" I cut his ropes and pushed him out the door.
-
roughly pushes the fur out the door
-
*nods to scyler glad that he didn't harm the fur further and drops the older bandit at his feet*
-
"Thanks. But we might have to wait until morning for this guy. I might have hit him a tad too hard." I quickly tied him up to the chair and left him unconscious. "You guys can try and wake him up. I'm going to take car of the dead bodies." I walked out the door and, using geomancy, I created a large ditch just outside of town. I slowly began to drag and toss the dead bandits into the pit.
-
"i'll help scylar" ghost said following him out and picking un the bandits and putting them in the pit "hey scylar i can't see there armor besides the face thats its cheap leather with a bit of steel plates attached, are there any crests or symbols on the armor"
-
*works on the bandit trying to wake him up with the small of burnt powder, not really getting anywhere*
-
"Yeah. But not on their armor. I'ts on their weapons. Look..." I held up a sword bearing the crest of the noble family of Grazston. "Looks like someone needed a group to do their dirty work but didn't want to lose too much money." I tossed another bandit in the pit as I said that.
-
"so the famaily of grazston, the town closest to our enemy thats part of ivalance, hired bandits to do bad stuff, and we'll find out what when the other bandit wakes up" ghost sumed up tossing the last bandit into the ditch
-
"Yep. Stand back..." I put my paws on the ground and ripped them off with force. This caused a shower of dirt to erupt from the gound and fill the ditch due to geomancy. "Let's go back to the room... I have an idea..."
-
I woke up in a cold sweat,stretching and yawning.I put my shorts on and walked downstairs to the bar."..Can I have some water?..""..Sure,kid..".I took my water and went to the room,sitting on the bed and drinking.
-
ghost followed scylar to his room "what did you have in mind"
-
"Oh, just a little spell to wake him up. Not all of my little orbs contain nice sounds..." I pulled out one that was wrapped in a leather sheet. "This one is holds the worst noise in the world. But, it's a one time use. Everyone out of this room, NOW. For your own safety..." I walked up to the room and made sure the bandit was tied up.
-
*walks out side to be safe*
-
"Good, everyone's out." I tossed the leather-bound ball into the room and set a 5 second exploding spell(just enough to remove the leather). I quickly slammed the door. "Cover your ears!!!" I cover my ears.
-
*throws a robe to scyler* "cover ghost's ears!" *covers his own"
-
"ok how bad could it be" ghost said walking out of the room and closing the door and hearing the most painful sound through the door "AGGGHAGAGAGGGGG" ghost fall backwards her ears bleeding
-
I cover her ears just in time but I hear the horrible sound. It lasts for ten seconds and its worse then claws on a chalkboard. I began to shudder uncontrollably, but lagh as I hear a What the- Where Am I?!?!?!"
-
*ghasps at what happened, cursing himself for not helping scyler and ghost and covering his own ears*
-
crying on th ground her ears bleeding
-
I Heard a loub 'BANG!' then jumped,startled,and dropped the class,running out into the hall,"..WHAT HAPPENED?!.."
-
*starts to use his paw to ease ghost's pain* "scyler, i can only ease the pain, you need to heal the actual damage"
-
bites lip to stop crying, barley works
-
"Cura!" The spell works and heals her wound. I then get up and walk inside the room. The bandit is struggling to get free so I punch him in the stomach. "No, you're not going anywhere. Not unless you tell me evrything you know."
-
sniffels and stands up wiping her eyes on her sleaves and sits down inside the room
-
"...Whoa...who is THIS guy?..".I asked,walking in after brother.
-
*i wave my paw over her ears to make them feel warm and at ease* "that worthless bandit had better give us alot of information"
-
I signalled to Xander to play along with me on this. "Alright, now listen. If you don't tell us everything you know, my brother over there us going to use you for target practice which, is not good for you, he doesn't need much of. So you gonna talk?"
-
*i bring ghost in and let her sit down, then i place the cold barrel of my pistol to his groin* "we can do it quick or slow man, your choice"
-
I blinked,"..Uhh...Yea!...I need to work on my AIM..."
-
"Fine, I'll talk. I work for the lord of Graszton. We were sent here to find a certain fur and bring him back. That fur was supposed to be you. He heard about you and wanted you to enlist in his army as the head Mage. He told us if we could manage to bring you back to him, he would give us plenty of Gil to fill our pockets and then some. We only took what we needed to survive from the other towns. Now, can I go?"
"Ok, you get thirty seconds to get out of town and into those woods or else my brother here us going to put a slug in your back with his new rifle."(do with him as you please) I cut his ropes and started counting. "1... 2... 3..."
-
cracked her knuckles and socked him in the face "thats for the wake up call"
-
* watches the bandid go and sighs remembering all the people they hurt on the way through the town, he lifts his rifle one handed and offhand shoots the bandid in the back without even looking* "scum" *then looks over at ghost and laughs at the face-punch*
-
(am I the one who got punched?)
-
(no i made the bandit bleed, u fine)
"can we plan tomarrow" ghost said rubbing her ears and eyes
-
(lol, i thought scyler got hit)
*lowers his rifle* "yeah, i'm tierd"
-
(right)
socks scylar to face "that was also for the wake up call" ghost said rubbing her temples
-
Crumpled to floor, acting like he was unconscious.
-
"i can hear your breathing and heart rate, you are faking" ghost said rubbing her face
-
*falls back laughing* "aww, such a violent two they are" *then leaves with xander to sleep* "i think we should leve before WE get hit lol"
-
"..K,brother!..".I followed him out of the door.
-
"lol right, sorry swiftclaw night guys" ghost said walking into her room and taking off her armor and wepons fell asleep
-
*jumps onto his bead with his guns next to the bed and passed out*
-
*fell asleep while faking unconsciousness*
-
(lets speed this up)
****morning rooster crows- dawn****
-
I walked back into the other room,getting brother and dragging him into me and andre's bed,then put him under the covers and curled up in between my two brothers.
-
(good idea) *gets up careful to not wake xander or scyler and goes downstairs to see about getting them some brekfast, heading back upstairs with the food and putting some on the table in ghost's room heads to his room with x and scyler* "breakfast guys!"
-
wakes up and takes food to the guys room and knocks on door
-
*opens it* "hey ghost, what's up?"
-
"i just wondered what we are gonna do today" ghost said standing in the hall "can i come in"
-
*walks back and sits down* "sure, and i don't know what were gonna do"
-
I jumped,startled."..EHN!..oh..".I rubbed my eyes,"...Pancakes?.."
-
*laughs* "yeah xander, pancakes"
-
I wake up and blink slowly. "Mmm, pancakes... Hey Ghost..." I gingerly rubbed the spot where she slugged me.
-
"i don't know" holds hands over mouth and says "pankakes pankakes pankakes" (lol its a old joke lol, like what is lumbar, its a joke lol)
"any way hey scylar and i were talking, mabey we could catch some chocobos and load them with our stuf and travle the sea city, then we can sell them when we get there before we get a ship and got to the enemy king" ghost then looks at scylar "sorry about last night" turns head to floorboards
-
sounds like a good idea to me *looks at the red mark on scylers face and chuckles*
-
"Dont worry about that. It's cool." I tore into my breakfast and savired the taste of pancakes.
-
I got a pancake and nibbled on it."..SOOOO GUUUD!.."
-
*i started on my own food before it got cold, enjoying the taste* "mmmm"
-
"so, what do we do now?" I finished my breakfast and put my robes over my regular clothes. "Anyfur got a plan?"
-
"sure, we can go find some chocobos if you all feel up to it"
-
I looked around,".......And after-....maybe we could go look for equipment?...we dont really know what this city has and we HAVE been been collecting Gil from the bandits,right?.."
-
"that's a good point xander, you want to help me find some equipment while the others find us some rides?"
-
*Running through the front doors being chased by a very large fur* "Guys! Are you in here!?" *Continues running all around avoiding the various kicks and punches from the angry fur*
-
*hears the noise and runs downstairs* "what the?!?!?"
-
I jump our ofbed and casually walk downstairs. "Ugh... More trouble." I created a light rope and bound the large fur, causing him to fall down. "Wht are you after my comrade?"
-
^He stole my money and I want it BACK!^ "I didn't mean to get that much. I just wanted to make a little bit to hand out to the poor" Obviously lieing through his teeth.
-
"Zabbys, don't make me untie him! Did you take his money?!"
-
"Yes..." as I lower my head slowly walking over to the large fur. *Drops about 75gil* "that was all of it... i'm sorry" frowning, while a tear drops from his eye.
-
*almost can't beleave the show being put on* "i... wow.. just wow..... hey xander, let's go huh?"
-
"Zabbys, for the next 30 minutes, you will be helping this fur do whatever it is they do. No ifs, ands, or buts. Stealing from the innocent is not something I condone. That's no better than the bandits we just took care of. Now i'm going to go with Andre and Xander to get some new equipment. I might even swing by the magic store for a new tome. Now, don't ever do what you just did ever again. Ok? That's not hero material." I release the bonds on the fur. "I'm terribly sorry for my friend."
-
^It's not his fault, he just shouldn't be going around stealing from people.^says the large fur as he gets up and grabs his money. ^You there little thief, you are coming with me^ as he points to Zabby.
"I... alright sir."frowning, but doing what the man said as they both head out the door.
-
"Some lessons need to be learned the hard way..." I walked out and met Xander and Andre outside a weapons store. "Ahh, I wish I could use a sword..." I stated up into the window of the shop, a beautifully crafted shortsword staring back. Suddenly, an idea popped into my head. "Of course!!!" I quickly ran off to a small magic academy on the east side of the town. I ran up to the instructor. "Hello, sir. I was wondering if I could take the test to be an Advanced Red Mage." The instructor looked at me, astonished. "It is a treacherous course, young one. Are you sure?" "I'm positive. Give me a black magic tome and I'll study for 5 minutes!"
Five minutes later the test began. "Seeing as how you ate already an advanced white Mage, we will only test you on the black magicks. Began withthe three basic spells! Then, do the next level of those spells. Finally, if you can use all three advanced levels of these spells, you will pass." "Yes, sir! Fire, Thunder, Blizzard!!" I successfully cast the first three spells, feeling a slight drain in my energy. "Fira, Thundara, Blizara!!!" The spells were cast flawlessly. However the energy drain was immense. Panting, I brought myself to attempt casting the final three. "Firaga!! Thundaga!!! BLIZZAGA!!!!" I was barely able to pull it off. All three spells were a success. I smiled and fell to my knees. I reached in it bag and pulled out an ether. I drank it quickly and regained my strength. "Good lord, child!! You pulled it off! You actually did it!!"
A short time later, I walked out of the school in new clothing. Red Mage clothing. I casually walked up to Xander and Andre. "Hey! Notice anything different?"
-
*his jaw dropped* "you have GOT to be joking"
-
"Nope! I'm the real deal! I'm an advanced red Mage! Plus, now I can weild that sword up there." I pointed towards the beautifully crafted sword in the window. "In fact, I'm going to weild two of 'em!" I looked in my money pouch and saw that it had grown respectably. I walked inside the armory and went up to the owner. "Excuse me, sir. How much is that sword up there and how much does it cost?" The man stared at me. "We have four of those swords. They cost 350 Gil each." "I'll take two of them." I dropped a bag of Gil onto the counter with exactly 700 Gil in it. "What is this fine blade called?" "The Meinel." "Thank you sir." I strapped the sheaths to my belt and thrust the swords into them. I walkedout of the shop and smiled.
-
"ugh" *i grinned, i can't let some mage show me up in combat, well, looks like my supply money is going to be spent rather quickly, i walked inside and went straight to a sword and dagger set on the back wall, it wasn't as bright or showy as most, but i could tell the blade was well forged, and the weight felt good in my hands, i placed them on the counter and bargened the price down by a few gil before buying them and walking back outside* "well, i guess i'll need to practice with this now"
-
"We can spar! That way, we both get better." I walked over to him and let him hold my sword. "Give it a swing."
-
*i give the tip a flick or two to get used to the feel of the blade then swing it back and fourth starting to windmill the blade finally bringing it into a tight figure eight and stoping it in a straight vertical block fliping the hilt around to scyler* "yeah, it's nice, but a bit heavy on the end for my style" *i hand him my sword by the hilt* "what do you think of mine?"
-
I balance the sword on my finger. "Excellent balance..." I flip the sword up and catch it in my paw, swinging it and stopping a hairs breadth from the ground. "Wonderful control as well. Nothing flashy but it will easily win a battle." I hand him back his sword and take Meinel back and sheath it.
-
*smiles impressed* "for a mage you do rather well with a blade, whadda ya' say we spar with some bokken?"
-
"Not now, brother. I need to get some new gloves." I showed him my white Mage gloves and ran off to find a Mage store. I walked in and found a pair of red gloves. I paid the man behind the counter 75 Gil and kept all of my white Mage clothes just in case. I walk back to Andre and show him my new red gloves with black leather palms.
-
"very nice, i like em' but i need some ammo and food, wanna join?"
-
"Yeah, the test really took a lot of my energy. Let's go pick up Zabby, it's been well over thirty minutes." I walked over to where the giant fur had walked off to.
-
*i follow laughing under my breath at zabby's fate*
-
I walk up to Zabby who apparently was stuck with landscaping duty. "You're done Zabby. Let's go get some food. If your 'friend' has any objections he can take it up with me and Andre."
-
"I don't want to go... Rupert and I were just talking about medatation and fist pounding and...and... OTHER STYUFF!!!" I say as I stand up and start to jump up and down like a rubber ball on drugs. ^Yeah, the little one and I were just about to have some fun.^says Rupert the large fur.
-
o.O "oooohkeeey whatever"
-
"O RLY? Fine, we're hungry. We'll catch up later." I walked into a nearby pub and sat at the counter. "I'll have a steak." I sat and waited for Andre to join me.
-
*i plop down in the chair next to him* "Steak and a good drink!"
-
*Continues to work and after a couple minutes starts to get into a deep conversation with Rupert about fighting that ends up in a friendly sparring match*
-
I munch on my steak and drink a nice glass of lemonade. "So, wanna go round up some chocobos? If we get enough, we can make some extra money."
-
hey, sounds good to me lets go
-
*walking down the street past the pub all bloody and breathing heavily* "wow... that was fun"
-
(yo i'm pissed beyond all belif!!! >:| ****** ******* **** *******)
ghost flys to pub after a nap "hey guys what up" ghost said walking in "yo zabyys, u ok man"
-
(I'm sorry?)
"hey ghost, we're about to head out"
-
"Hey Ghost! Like my new outfit?"
{I'm a red Mage now}
(aww, why are you pissed?)
-
(i read the last few pages, i'll tell u via email, u can hear it from scylar)
"sure i'm ready to help" ghost said making sure her armor was on before cracking her knuckles
-
"..I'll have some ramen and a root beer,please..".As my food arrived I looked at scyler's robe,nearly choking on my dring,"..~cough~..WHOA!..Nice robe..".
-
"i don't see the diffrence in the robes" ghost said in all seriousness "so how are we gonna catch some rides" ghost satnds there, unable to hear the mad chocobo running tward her. crash. knockes into her and all her armor is broken beyond all repair. "*** ** * *****" ghost growls when she sees her armor is busted, she walks into a store and trades in her armor, buying a judo uniform, some battle boots, and a chain mail shirt to go over the uniform in battle, some arm bracers, and a head band, "ggaaa of all the stupid luck" looks at firends, with a now lighter gil pocket. "stupid chocobos"
-
*gives ghost a very wide birth as he walks around to where the chocobo were* (er... are we like out in a field?)
-
(idk i think we were in town and a random chocobo crashed into me, mabey ppl ride them in town, and one got spooked)
"come on where are thease stupid chocobos" ghost growled
-
(kk,thanks)
"er, i think they're this way" *points to the woods and what looks like a clearing out side of town*
-
"lead the way" ghost said waring the chain mail over the judo ware. "i want some payback" cracks knuckles
-
*starts heading to the woods keeping a good distance from ghost, finally reaching the clearing he saw 3 wild chocobo in it just standing there* "hmm, maybe we should try and net a smaller one first?"
-
flys up and dive bmbs a chocobo riding it like a buckin bronko, knocking it on the head she knockes it out and drops it next to andre
-
*whimpers a bit* "i'm never pissing you off" o.o
-
repeates manuever and lands 2 more chocobos in the same fashion "***** that jack ***"
-
*shrinks back from her his ears pinned back and his tail between his leggs tending to the unconcious chocobo* "eep o.o"
-
"not u" ghost said felling a few trees and makes a pen for the chocobos
-
*quickly puts them into the pen and gets water and food for them still avoiding anything that might make ghost angry...er*
-
(scylar said that he planed something during the chocobo hunt so lets wait 4 him, he said he'd be on at 7:30)
ghost sits under a tree and takes a nap
-
(okay good idea, what time is it there?)
*curls up into a fluffy ball next to her sleeping, growling yiping and mumbling in his sleep*
-
(idk if he ment my 7:30 or his, so its either 4:30 or 5:30 for u)
ghost dreams about friends getting hurt and her doing nothing to be able to stop it
-
*wakes up to see her having a bad dream and curls up around her like a fluffy blanket... that growls and breaths*
-
gets out of fluffy balnket and lays beneath a tree
-
(ok, guys. We've got an hour and a half before I gotta go.)
I had been practicing my swordsmanship. I was slowly learning how to weild two swords efficiently. I walked back to the group, disappointed that I didn't get to help with the chocobo hunt. "Dangit... I missed the fun." I sat down next to Ghost and hugged her.
(feeling any better?)
-
(sorta, don't forget the crystal thing during the hunt)
"hey we still need a few more chocobos to get some gil, considering i had to spend a lot of my gil for this gear" ghost said angrily fingering the judo uniform
-
"Yeah, we should go catch some more. Andre, you can sit here and rest. We've got this." I walked with her until we saw another small herd of chocobos. "I'm seeing nearly 8 chocobos out there. Each would roughly sell for about 75 gil. Think we can get em all?"
-
"ya i got it can u stall them for a bit, i'll create a pen and we'll rangle them all, just stall them long enough to let me knock down a few trees for a pen, don't let them bolt if you can" ghost said crouching down
-
"Pfft! Stall them? I'll just STUN them!" I stood up and opened my book of black magic. "Thundara!" I cadtvthe spell in a harmless way that stunned them. "Theyll be stunned for a few minutes. Let's go!"
-
"thanks nice job" ghost flys forward and ties the chocobos legs togeather and then moves on to the next one
-
I tie a chocobos legs together and move on to another, tying it's legs together as well. Eventually we finish tying them up.
-
"ok now we just have to tie there harnesses to geather, but first we got tyo get the harnesses, or just a cord around the neck" ghost said strching as the choco's start moving again "at least now we got time to do stuff" ghost said taking ome leather thong and fastining a loop out of it
-
*i growl and mope on the ground, my tooth ache throbbing in my head* (ugh, this sucks)
-
"ok so we got some loops now we secure them to the neck," ghost said putting the loop on a choco and fitting it right then tieing it in a nott to not tighten on the animal, "and then let the other ropes go" ghost said using her knife to cut the ropes and stepping back rom the standing up chocobo
-
(sorry to hear that, Andre)
"Yeah we can get them into the pen quickly." I tied the leather around a chocobos neck and untied it's feet. I slowly led it into the pen and closed the gate on it. "Simple as that." I tossed her the leather that bound the chocobos feet and looped the othe one around another neck and led it as well.
-
*stands up and walks over to the corall watching* "can i ride one?"
-
"sure" ghost said leading the last choco's into the pen "ok so we got the choco's now hwta"
-
*stands on one of the pen's fence posts wondering if the impending pain is worth the fun of trying to ride a wild cocobo*
-
"Well, now we need to go back into town so we can find a buyer." I began to walk in the direction of the town when the earth gave way beneath me. "AAAAUUUUUGGGHHHHHHHH!!!!!!" <thud>
I landed 30 feet below the surface in an old mining tunnel. I wasn't injured, just dazed.
-
"scyler" ghost yells flying down the hole see ing if he is ok
-
*i jump down suprised and look into the pit* "HEY! you okay bro?"
-
"Yeah! I'll be fine!" I checked to see that everything was still in working order. I stood up and looked around. "Dangit... I can't see a thing."
-
"wow dosen't it suck" ghost said seriously joking and hearing a long tunnel with a large object at the end of the tunnel
-
"what's down there?"
(hey guys, i'm really sorry, but i'm in too much pain to keep posting, i'll put in like 3 more posts to put me in a resonable place to fade out for a bit and i'll be on later, but i just can't keep it up right now, sorry o.o )
-
(we understand)
"it looks like a tunnel and then a large cavern with a jagged object in the center of the cavern" ghost reported taking scylers \hand and pulling him tward the object
-
"you guys go ahead then, i'll watch the chocobo, yell up to me if you need help!"
(thanks guys, i'll ttyl *hugz n' stuff*)
-
"I see a faint red glow at the end of the tunnel! It's very dim and soothng." Suddenly, I'm bombarded by whispers and strong voice beckons me towards the light. "Be prepared for anything..."
-
"got it man" ghost said her knuckles ready as she reached the red light
-
In the center of the room was the fire crystal. Unfortunately, there was a large monster guarding it. "Dang! This one has a guardian! Let's kill it!!" I drew my blades and charged the beast, fists glowing a light blue and coveing my blades with frost. "Ice works well! Blizzard!" I cast a spell that imbued ghost's knuckles with ice. I kept sling until I got hit with a fireball and then got slammed into the wall. "ERGHH!!!"
-
ghost launched her self around smacking her icy knuckles into the beast and flying around its head to distract it while scyla wakes up
-
"Youre dead, beast!!!" "BLIZZAGA!!" I xastvthe spell as many times ad I could before falling to the floor, exhausted. (be back in about 2 and a half hours. Bye)
-
(ok, yo my bro and i talked and now i'm ****** pissed again GGGAAAA)
ghost smashed her fist into the monster breaking anything solid in the body, she then twisted her knuckles tearing huge holes into the monster "GAGAGAGAGAAAAAAAAAAA" ghost yelled smashing the monster into oblivion, killing it easily (i just have to imagine the monster is drew the ******)
-
*my ears perk up* "what's that?" *the sounds of intense fighting ringing out from the hole* "well, i said i'd wait here unless they called for me....."
-
(So i'm guessing we're in a tunnel?..)
I ran up behind andre and tugged on his pants leg,"..What's going on in there,brother?.."
-
(they are i'm watching the chocobo outside the tunnel entrence [i had to leve the computer so i split from them])
"ghost and scyler are in the old mine shaft over there and i think they're in a fight, wanna go help em' out?"
-
"Ghost... Run..." I slowly stand up, bathed in a white aura. My eyes shone like the purest silver under the full moon. "Run... While you still have a chance... To make it out... Alive..." My swords began glowing as well. (run, what happened in the woods is gonna happen again)
-
instead hugs scylar in a death grip and knockes him on the head knocking him out "sorry man" ghost said flying him out of the mine, and setting him on the ground
-
*watches ghost bring scyler out* "woah, is he okay? ghost, did you hit him again?"
-
"hey he was freaking out this way he will calm down" ghost said "in case he dosen't calm down stay here" ghost picked up swiftclaw and flew him a mile into the woods and set him down
-
"No!!! I've gotta get back in there!!!" I create a new opening with geomancy and run back to the chamber. "STAY BACK!!! ALL OF YOU!!!"
-
*watched them leave and sees scyler go for broke to the new opening* "dayum, boy has dedication, he's gonna regret that if ghost catches him tho"
-
"hey i never did what i was told no reason to break my creed" ghost mumbles grabbing scylar and flying him under ground to the crystal, and letting him down near it
-
"Thanks!! You've got about 30 seconds to get out of range... Go! NOW!!!" I shouted, charging the beast. My swords whipped around and continuously cut the beast.
-
ghost didn't want to leave her friend in a mine shaft alone "no i'll survive" ghost said getting ready for anything, she had only knocked out the beast
-
"Forgive me..." I create a large gust of wind, cannoning her out of the tunnel. I then seal the openings with geomancy.(don't worry the explosion will send dirt everywhere) I turn to the beast, glowing even more intense than before. "GrrrrrrrrraaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!"
The aura of raw energy around me erupts in a chaotic burst of energy.
<from the surface>
The ground begins to bulge and shine, then it exploded in a giant eruption of light, showering dirt on everyone and leaving a giant crater with my body laying next to the crystal.
-
looks at scylar and crystal lands next to him checking for major injury or death "wake up"
-
I only groan and roll over. I'm bleeding from my forehead, but only because I hit a rock after I fell.
-
ties bandage to head, "what the f david blane"
-
I just grin and give a thumbs up. "Go touch the crystal. Listen to what it has to say..."
(congratulations, you get to choose what happens next)
-
*runs to them* "BRO! you have got to stop worrying us like that!"
-
(what is supposed to happen i got no idea)
-
(the crystal will tell us what to do. It's up to you to decide what the crystal says to you.)
-
~runs up behind andre covered in dirt~,"....Yea,brother.."
-
*Popping out of the ground about 200 yards away* "Who has interupted my grounds!?" *Looking around seeing everyone and then at Skylar* "Oh my groundness, are you all alright?"
-
ghost flew down the hole and listened to the crystal then flew back up when it finished
-
I groaned and sat up and looked at Ghost. "Nngghh... Wh... What happened...?"
-
(email)
"the crystal charged me with a quest" ghost said solumnly, "i must travle to the northern ice feilds, a day trip by flying, mabey 3 days on chocobo, and face a ice foe, the fire crystal said i might not always be able to fight in my element, and i must learn to fight to the best of my abilities even while distracted, or uncomfortable, for sometime it will happen and this exercize will mabey save my life somday" ghost sumarised, dreading the prospect of fighting while freezing her wings off "uggg an ice beast what a great time i will have" ghost said glumly
-
"I'm not letting you go alone. If you get hurt with no one around, you might not make it back. I'll go so I can help you if necessary." I reached in my bag and slowly sipped an ether, letting it refresh me.
-
"ok, but will you guys not fight, i feel like i need to do this alone" ghost said soberly turning her head to the north
-
"I'll only fight if you are in danger of losing your life. You have my word."
-
"ok then, i still don't like having u guys around" ghost said thinking of the time it would take to get thease guys to get there to only turn around and go back
-
"I'll just ride a chocobo. It'll be faster and easier."
-
"ya but it will still take 2 days longer than i could get there" ghost said but excepting the fact that thease guys were comming "we'll leave tomarrow ok" host said picking up scylar, and loading him on a chocobo, and leading the rest of them back to town
-
I rode on the chocobo all the way back to town. I was drained from the outburst from earlier. My head ached and my body was too stressed out to do much.
-
puts scylar into his bed and leaves and stockes up on heavier clothes, and some wool and sews it to her cloak, then goes to bed
-
<morning rolls around>
I wake up and put my official red Mage robes on. I walked downstairs and ate a quick breakfast.
-
wakes up and gets judo uniform on head band on, and cloak, then ties every thing else up in a pack and walks down stairs and eats with scylar
-
"Hey Ghost." I slowly ate my breakfast of bacon and eggs.
-
*walks out of his and jo's room* "ugh, what a day" *walks down stairs for some food* "hey ghost, hey scyler"
-
"morning andre" ghost said glumly eating some porrage, and eggs
-
*walks up and huggs her* "hey, you doin okay?"
-
(guy troubles)
"we get to travle to the cold norths and i get to fight an ice monster fun" ghost said hating the cold
-
(oh, if ya want you can PM or e-mail me and BS about it)
"sounds great, better pack some warm cloths" *he didn't mind so much, after all his race was built to work in the snow*
-
(mabey, i just need some relaxing i guess)
"lucky, i hate the cold if i could manulipate fire i would be the happiest falcon in ivalance"
-
"I'll take care of our fire needs..." I created a ball of flame and let it hover in front of her.
-
*shrunk back a bit from the flame* "egh, don't touch the fur >.< "
-
ghostr breathes deep near the fire lovng the heat, "ahhh thanks man" ghost says hearing the fire, then reaching into her pack and listing to her fire orb, nodding off at the table
-
*smiles* "wow, she goes out quick, good job scyler" *heads to the bar for some food and drink*
-
I quickly freeze the flame into a solid ball of ice. "Check this out..." I held the ball of ice up for Andre and Ghost to see.
-
wakes up shivering from the chill of the ice putting the orb in her bag "ugg"
-
*laughs and pokes the ball of ice*
-
"not funny" pulls on cloak scarfing her food
-
"Now, watch this..." I grab a barrel and throw the ball in there. It shatters and erupts back in flames. "Nifty little trick, huh?"
-
(..Sorry i've skipping my online time,guys...i dont feel all too good....(IRL not on the thread)..but it's ok....) :upupdi3:
I woke up late.Putting on my shorts,I went downstairs and sat next to the wall,leaning on it."...Can I just have some water?.."
-
"hey jojo" ghost said passing him a water skin, taking off her cloak and holding her hands near the fire.
-
(aww, i hope you feel better soon bro)
*eats his food* "hey bro, sup?" (i gtg, be back in 30 min or so)
-
(..thanks brother...heh..I hope I do too,brother...I'm going out of town all next week...OH YEAH!!...that reminds me...here,i'll p.m. u guys,kk?..)
"..Hey,ghost..".I said with my scratchy morning voice.
-
(k, be back soon, bro)
I quickly doused the flames and sat back in my chair.
-
(k feel better soon dude)
"want some breakfast dude" ghost said passing a plate of pancakes to him
-
I chowed down on my own plate and took a large swig of orange juice. "Dang, this place has some good pancakes!"
-
(..Thanks,ghost...I appreciate it...)
I giggled in a raspy voice at my brother,"..Haha!...Don't choke on 'em!.."
-
(gtg halo c ya latr or 2maro)
"lol funny jojo" ghost klaughed putting the plates away and sitting down
-
(aww, see ya tomorrow. Bai bai.)
I slowed down my eating and looked at Xander. "Happy?"
-
(kk,see ya tamarrah!)
I took his pancake,nibbled on it,and put it back in his paws,"..Yeeeup!.."
-
I playfully snarl at him and put him in a headlick and give him nuggies. "O RLY?"
-
~struggles~,"..Nyea,RLY!.."
-
*Walking in through the front door* Hey you all, how are you doing?
-
I still struggled,giggling,"..Hah!...ngh...GREAT!...Yourself?..ngh!.."
-
*wolf hugz both his bro's and squeezes them* ^.^ "hey zabby"
-
Irelease Xander and hug Andre back. "Yo, Zabby! Where ya been?"
-
I took a gasp before being hugged again,taking the breath out of me.
-
"Just out doing some errands for some people. Not much to do at night when you only sleep for an hour." Yawning as he sits at a table.
-
*i let my bro's go and plop down in a chair* "hey scyler, why dodn't ya fill him in?"
-
"Fill who in about what?" I say as I look around confused.
-
"We're going to the northern icelands. Ghost was given a mission by the fire crystal so were going just to make sure she doesn't die or get seriously wounded." I finished my pancakes and drank the last of my orange juice.
-
(FRICK!!!!!!!! I GTG, SEE YOU ALL TOMORROW!) *is pissed*
-
(..aww cabbagges......well i guess i'll see joo tamarrah then,brother?..) :sniffle:
I walked over to the window and looked out,looking at all of the Furrs and Scaleys and humans walking around,bartering at stores,not minding really each others company.I walked back over to the group.
-
"should we get going then" ghost asked glumly
-
"Lets go." I stood I and shouldered my pack.
-
"..K...Go ahead,i'mma go upstairs and get my stuff..".I walked upstairs and grabbed my shirt,then put it on.I walked over to the side of the bed and looked under it,where i left my bow,arrow holder,and arrows.
-
"wait, scylar come on we have to sell the extra chocobos" ghost said we had 12 chocobos, there was only 5 of them
-
"Lets go see if a rancher would buy them. They're more efficient than horses."
-
"ok then man" ghost said flying to the pen and leaving her stuff there she took 4 of the 7 chocobos that were going to be sold and walked to find a rancher
-
I took the other three chocobos to a miller, who desperately needed them and grossly overpaid me. I return to the inn with 350 Gil in my pouch, whistling happily.
-
I walked downstairs,making sure i had enough ammo for the trip.I walked out of the door and headed to the group.".....All set?..".
-
(I thought you were an archer)
"Hey, Xander. You about ready?"
-
*i walk up to xander* "hey bro, you ready?"
-
ghost sold the choco's and wqalked inside "hey andre what up dude"
-
I turned around and jumped,starteled,"..Oh..Heh...Yea,brother!.."
-
"so, where are we off to today?"
-
"The icelands. We have to get there as soon ad possible."
-
ghost walked outside to get some fresh air
-
"oh right" *he said as he remembered the day before's talk* "well, lets get going?"
-
ghost just sat outside reflecting on the last few days events "holy ****"
-
*walks outside to ghost* "hey, you alright?"
-
ghost looks at her feet "i'm sorry andre"
-
*sits down next to her* "sorry for what?"
-
(i'll pm u)
ghost just shakes her head
-
*hugz her* "you wanna go back into the inn where it's warm?"
-
"no i'll meet u down the road" ghost took off angriall into the north reaching the edges of the ice feilds she sat down in an ice hole and held her breath
-
*walks back inside* "hey scyler, i think ghost needs a few friends right now"
-
"You might be right on that one, Andre." I walked past him and out to Ghost. "Hey, are you ok?"
-
*walks up to behind ghost and starts to meditate*
-
(guys didn't u reade my post i flew to the edge of the ice relams and i'll meet u there, by the time u get there i'll be back on ps still slightly mad)
-
(oops..sorrie..)
-
ghost shakes her head the snow falling to the ground she flew around and heard nothing, so she decided to sit and wait for her friends, she set up a fire with some wood from a ew miles away and waired it might take a few days for her friends to reach her
-
(Sorry about that)
"So, I have a friend to talk to about..." *Hears a slight rumble in the ground* "Ope, never mind that has been taken care of."Looking around at the trees and the rocks on the ground.
-
bear shrugs and walks back to town to apoligse for leaving, hopefully she would meet her friends on the road
-
*sees bear on the road ahead of them* (are you going to play it off that you were a bear all along? and btw i think we can all agree that we left by now and would be on the road to meet her?)
-
(idk lets just say i defeated the ice monster and i miraclusly turned into a grizzly)
bear saw her friends on the road and galloped up to them and liked them to the face "sorry for leaving guys i needed to get this done sorry"
-
*is afraid at first, but smells her and recognises the scent* "HEY! ghost!" *hugs her* "ah, okay, enough licking! egh! lol"
-
bear laughes and said "sorry guys" and stands up on 2 feet and hugs andre
-
*hugs back* "wow, you grew" o.o
-
"yep" bear said standing up like 2' taller then andre "and i can see"
-
{umm, I think you might be too big for the monk now. Lets all head back to the fire crystal. You'll love what's gonna happen}
"G-Ghost?!" I stare at the looming grizzly. "Why weren't you like this before? We couldve easily taken out those bandit groups had you always been a grizzly."
-
I tugged on scylers robe,"..Wheres gho-....".I noticed a giant bear towering above us and stood there speechless
-
falls on 4's shaks ground and licks jo full in the face "aww don't ya reconize me archer, your monk friend, i can see now" bear gave him a hint and licked im again
-
I stood there,lifelessly,being bathed by a bear,"...Gh-...ghost?..."
-
i laughed and stood back and stood up "no hug for a fellow travler from ure own party"
-
(...heh...it's weird jumping back from the two threads,eh?..) :snicker:
I turned back in the direction from whence we came,then looked back at ghost,"..B-but you......at the inn and-......what?.."
-
(its sorta is hard but could be worse)
"i flew up here finished my quest and turned into a bear" bear sumairzed hugging jo and going back onto 4's
-
(....yea..it's kinda fun....WHOA..joo pm fast..)
I hugged her back,uncertain if I was seeing things or not.
-
she licked jo in the face again "i don't think a halucination could do that lol" bear laughed
-
I quickly create an illusion of Xander licking her back. "Apparently it can!"
-
sniffs illusion "no that dosent smell like jojo" bear confirmed sitting down
-
"That wasn't my point I was trying to prove. You said a hallucination couldn't lick someone. I just proved that wrong." I sat with my back against a tree, disnisdingvthe illusion with a wave of the wrist.
-
*watches mildly amused* "huh, magic does have a use lol" *climbs onto bears back* "mush" *starts laughing at his own joke*
-
*Flies out of the ground about 15 feet away from the bear* "Holy cow guys it's a huge..." Looking up at the grizzly even with it on all 4's. "Wow your tall"
-
"hello zabyys" bear said licking him in the face also "lol now that we are all to geather should we keep goint east, i think the crystals power turned me into a bear blackbelt" bear said (idk if thats how its supposed to work)
-
*Watches the people smiling slightly*
-
"Well, I think you're too big to be a monk any more. So, I guess that could sound right."
-
"wow girl, you went up like 3 ranks of badarse" *jokingly applaudes*
-
"**** ya" bear jokes laughing also
-
"Let's get moving, we need to pay a visit to the fire crystal."
-
"ok lead the way mr red mage" bear said standing on all 4's again, following scyler
-
*crawls onto her shoulders laying down* "i'm ready to go" ^^
-
"lol i guess you want a ride" bear laughes walking mindful of the malamute on her back, and careful not to drop him
-
*bounces up and down as she walks hugging her neck* "whee, free ride ^^ "
-
"hey tomarrow you carry me" bear laughed walking
-
I walk down the road, myncompanions following behind me. "I'm glad your back, er... What do we call you now?"
-
"well i can't really be ghost anymore, i prolly couldn't sneak like i could, and i havn't come up with a good name, what do you guys think, i call my self bear, but if u guys got a better idea" bear said wondering
-
*laughs* "i like bear, it fit's" *tries to wrap his arms around her neck (not quite reaching) and gives her a wolf hug*
-
"ok i guess it does, but anybody else got an idea" bear said enjoying the hug "bear is cool, but anyothers?"
-
"How about Ursa? You are ursine after all..."
-
"idk, uras horid is the scientific griszzly bear term" bear said "na i don't want to be reminded that ppl classifyed the grizzly as horrible" bear said "yother ideas"
-
Name: Kipi
Age: 16 years, 11 months, 12 days, 20 hours, and 40 minutes.
Job: Black Mage
Race: Bunny-Fox
Weapons: Generally goes unarmed solely relying on his magic prowess.
Where you start off: On a trail leading to the Fire Crystal.
Special skills: Can easily learn the most advanced magic spells within a few minutes. Although he has that power, it quickly drains his stamina making it so he can only be in battle for a short amount of time.
Kipi ran as fast as he possible could being chases by a wild dog. The further he tried to run, the closer the savage animal got. Kipi around and looked at the animal worriedly. He traced a symbol in the air with his finger, and shouted out, "Firaga!" After a large explosion of fire, the beast fell dropped down dead, and Kipi stared at it feeling sorry for the poor animal. "I'm sorry," he said, "I didn't want to end your life." Just then, Kipi noticed a group of characters traveling together in the direction of the Fire Crystal. He looked up at them in surprise and waved, "Uhmm... hullo."
-
bear sees the bunny fox on the road and tenses up andre feeling like he's sitting on a rock with spikes, as her hackles rise
-
I stare at the black Mage, eyeing him cautiously. "Who are you? What do you want?"
-
*i jump off* "ow girl, dayum that hurt" *i turn twoards the bunny-fox gently laying my hand on my pistol*
-
Kipi stared at the large bear character over twice his size and started shaking. He took his gaze off them and turned to the tiger that had just started talking to him. He showed them his open hands so they knew he was unarmed. "M-my name is Kipi," he stammered, "I was going to the Fire Crystal when that dog.... uhmm... attacked me." He looked at the limp animal again, and back to the tiger. "Are you headed there?"
-
bear just growled at the box, "sorry" she said glancing at andre then back at the bunny fox
-
"Yeah, thats where were headed. Why do you ask?" I draw the Meinel just in case he had malicious intent.
-
"think well before you answer" bear said standing up to her full height, her claws showing
-
*suddenly feeling like the calmest member of the party he watches the movements of the Box carefuly, a void expression on his face*
-
Kipi stared wide-eyed at all the weapons being drawn out against him. "I-I'm not plotting anything!" He looked over at the path leading to the crystal and continued, "I just want to see the Fire Crystal, that's all. And there's safety in numbers. I'm sure there will be more wild beasts like the one I just killed on the way."
-
sees the box isn't evil and drops back to 4's but still growling "i'm fine with him i guess" bear said calming down and scooping up andre on her back again "lets go the sun will be going down soon"
-
"So can I come with you? I won't be a burden."
-
"i'm fine with it but you have to listen to scyler" bear said pointing with her head to the tiger, and walking on, "i'll need some armor next time we get a chance to stop"
-
"Hmm, that might be tough. We'd have to get a lot of money just for that. We could ju-" I stopped, my ears perked upright and my nose twitched. I heard laughter mixing with screams and cries along with bloodthirsty roars. "Bandits! Lets move!" I ran towards the noises, both swords drawn and imbued with spells. One with fire, one with thunder. I covers my robes in ice at critcal spots to protect myself. I ran up to a group of bandits(25) terrorizing a town. "HEY!! Leave the villagers alone!!" I stared at them, my eyes shining an unearthly green.
-
"ugg" bear tossed off andre and gallopedinto the fray and slashing a bandet and crushing another smashing every one and creation a huge racket, but also getting hurt (2 broken ribs, and a few cuts, bandits 19 left)
-
*I sneak up behind a bandit draw my pistol and place it to his head* "now just what do you think you are doing?" *clubs the bandit knocking him out and shoots another holstering my pistol and drawing my rifle, shooting 2 more i draw my sword and dagger drawing them up into an eligent pose then flying to the side with lightning speed dubble impailing a bandit, then whiping around i cut two more throats before placing them into anothers chest* (13)
-
"I'll get the rest!!" I held my fire sword aloft as a bandit charged me. I quickly whipped around and cut straight through him with red hot steel. I swung my other sword and a pulse of electrifying energy shot out, numbing the bandits legs. I stabbed both swords into the ground and let nature bend it's will through me. Roots shot out of the ground, impaling some, improsoning others. "Now, have fun..."(8)
-
"bah, magic" *i jokingly scoff, throwing my dagger into anothers chest running off him pulling it out and stabbing another in the process, i land and draw my blades close, waiting for 4 to surround me, suddenly i spinn blades out cutting them all down finishing on one knee glairing at the few survivors* (2)
-
"FIRA!!!" I use it in a more indirect method, I create a ring of fire around the remaining two, making it spin at a very fast rate. It whips up a tornado... of fire, roasting the two bandits and leaving nothing but a pile of ashes.
-
*THAT get's my attention as i clean my blades and sheath them i look rather wide-eyed at the pile of ashes* "holy... just..dayum..."
-
I shrug and draw my blades out of the ground. I quickly wipe them off on a bandits body and sheath them. "A little unorthodox, I know." I walk over to a few bandits and salvage what I can to be sold off to a store. I notice a large bag laying next to a bandit's body. I walk over and open it. My eyes opening wide as I caught a glimpse of it's contents. Gil, and lots of it.
-
"hey now thats ahhoowww" bear held her side, "i'll never know how you guys don't ever get hurt, but i wouldn't if i ever get some armor" bear joked rbbing her side with the brken ribs, and a few scrapes on her other side
-
*i walk up to bear, my paw glowing blue, doing some minor healing for her ribs* "well, we seem to always attack the dumber or weaker of the group, it's a predatory thing" *he says thinking about his and scyler's race's hunting methods*
-
"i guess ure right, except there are smart ppl" bear said groaning and standing up "lets getinto town, we can restock and such then continue on our way tomarrow" bear sugested looking tired, thinking of a soft bed
-
Kipi rushed in front of the group to get their attention. "I think you should all hide your weapons for now. The people of this town may be grateful that you killed those criminals, but they're likely to be weary of strangers." Kipi reached into his robe and pulled out a small bag. "I can't allow myself to be escorted for free; I'll pay the tab."
-
"The new guy has a point... But, no, you can't pay us. We'll just expect you to keep up and hold your own in battle."
-
"yep" bear agreed "and don't mock me with something i can't do i don't know you that well yet" bear said looking at her paws
-
*looked at bear about to make a joke then looked at her claws and thought better of it* "er... yeah, don't mock her"
-
"hey ure fine because i know u" bear joked "hey i got it USCHI uschi, it means little she bear in german" bear said "u lke it"
-
Hey, sounds good! i like it ^^
*holds out his dagger* "if you use a blade you wont get hurt as much" *looks at her paws trying not to grinn* "OH i'm sorreh!" *snickers as he puts the knife away*
-
uschi smirks and shoves andre a bit "thats better, a world without light hearts is a dictatorship" uschi said laughingtrying to pick up the dagger but onlu knocking it in the dirt
-
"Soubds about right. C'mon, lets head into town." I try to walk with the bag of gil but fall backwards from trying to lift it. "Uhh, a little hflp here, please?"
-
bear picks up the bag and slings it on her back, "mabey cooper, or beka, or just bear, hmmm"
-
"I know not of a name for you, but I do know that you are very tall and powerful, so I will do my best to jump around you from now on." Hopping around like a high bunny rabbit.
-
"Zabby! Calm thyself!" I walked behind Uschi, amazed at how easily she carried the bag of Gil.
-
"ha theres zabyys long time no see, u missed a fight" uschi said smiling at the lynx walking into town
-
I came up behind the group,"..Or maybe....hmm....Massada?..".I started to fire off random names.
-
*gives xander a hug* "hey you, ya' missed the fight, what gives bro"
-
"hello xander" uschi said yawning (hey i gtg bed 4 school, lol you can control my charactor till tomarrow abut 6 pm, see ya)
-
I hugged back and climbed on his back,"..'Cause I can't fight hand-to-hand is why...".I giggled and nuzzled his neck."..Hai,us-us-...uschi?..."
-
*laughed and turned my head back and fourth* "aaah, that tickles"
-
(..yea..joo guys can also control my char.,'cause i gotta go nightieh nigh...) :sleepytime:
"..Heh..I kno..".I continued to nuzzle.
-
"okay, okay. I will calm down a little." Slowly jumping lower and lower in the air untill he stops and then starts to twitch.
-
"Xander, when we get to the town, you're getting a knife. That way, if someone attacks you directly, you'll be able to defend yourself. Andre and I will teach you how to use it."
-
*i flip my dagger up and catch it by the blade offering it to him by the hilt then pulling it back* "is it smart to give him sharp things?"
-
Kipi tried to keep himself from laughing. He lit a tiny flame on the tip of his finger and said, "there's nothing more reliable than a bit of magic. Even when you're unarmed, you can still defend yourself."
-
"Well, I'm the only one in the family with the skill for magic. The other two learned how to shoot from long distances. Andre with guns and Xander with a bow and arrows." I froze the flame on his finger solid. I smiled as he tried to get it off.
-
Kipi stared at his finger impressed. "I take it you've been training at an academy then?" He waved his other hand over the ice and rekindled the flame, then asked, "which one?"
-
"I trained at the Ivalice Mage academy. But I got expelled because I attacked my instructor. I called him out in a duel. I won and he got mad and ad me tossed from the school."
-
"wow how is that fair, i actually pass out of the monk acadamy, i mean pass, with flying colors, and i always get hurt" uschi grumbled laughing shifting the gill to a diffrent spot on her back, "whats gonna happen when we get to town"
-
"I guess we can start with buying you some armor, so you don't get hurt as frequently. After that, well probably have to find a place to stay." I look at the setting sun, knowing we only had a few hours before it was dark.
-
"right, hey why don't we split into teams, one group finds a place to stay, one for provisions, and one for anything else, like my armor" uschi said smiling, "i'm sure you guys don't want to wait around while i get fitted for armor, and argues n prices and all about armor esigne" uschi said laughing, listinging to her growling stomach
-
*i nod at uschi* "she has a point, i'll go look for a place to stay if nobody else wants to*
-
(hey andre r u ok)
"thanks man, i'll look for armor" uschi said smiling
-
"I'll help with finding a place."
-
Raising his hand slowly, Kipi looked at Uschi and said, "I'll accompany you."
-
"ok i'll see you guys later, come on kipo" **some time later**
"hey guys" uschi said walking back wearing her well crafted 1" plate armor, full protection, not even weighing her down much, steel and strong, the steel color standing out on her dark brown fur, tossing the gil bag to scyler, now lighter, but not totally empty
-
"sounds good to me, let's go scyler" *start's walking twoards bar and inn part of town*
(meh... i'll PM you)
-
"ok we'll get provisions" ushi said oing into the market part of the the town
-
"..Well,I guess I'll be looking for a place ta crash with mah brothers then."
-
"see ya xander" uschi called over her shoulder, comming to a store and buying some potions and some salted food, and spices
-
"..Bye,Uschi!.".I said,running up with my brothers.
-
I pat Xanders head. "First, lets go get you a knife. There should be an armory over there. Here's 175 gil, get something sturdy and not too flashy."
-
"..Okay....I really dont want anything TOO big either...It'll slow me down..".My left ear twitched as I was being patted.
-
"I think we could find something like that." I walked with my brothers into the armory.
-
uschi picked up the stuff and walked to the inn and found andre, "hey are wwe staying here"
-
"yeah, just waiting for X and scyler to get out of the shop" *points to the door of the building across from the inn*
-
"Excuse me sir. I need a knife for my brother. He needs one that is durable, lightweight, and moderately prices but not too flashy."
The man reached under the counter, he produced a small silver blade with a black hilt and a gold pommel. "Thank you, sir." I left 200 Gil on the counter and handed Xander the knife. "Well, what do ya think?"
-
"cool thanks andre" uschi said looking at the rather small door for her, she will figure it out later as she set her stuff on the ground and waited
-
*notices her expression when she sees the front door and smiles* "you know there's a reason we're staying here tonight, go around back, they have a nice big entry way to a slightly over sized room, i think they said it was for equine furs and others who need the space"
-
uschi was remembering her friends and shook her head as andre alked "thanks man , sorry bout that"
-
I rose from looking at a black-bladed knife and walked over to him,noticing the knife and admiring it,"...Whooaaaa.....That's niiice.."
-
"I'm glad you like it, Xander! Cmon, the others are waiting at the inn." I strode out into the streets, walking over to the inn to notice Andre and Uschi. "Hey!"
-
"hey scylar and xander"uschi looks at the dark sky looking like a trerrable thunder storm "come on lets look at this stuff inside, then we can plan what we are gonna do next" uschi said going around the back and getting into her room, then going into the common room, and got a hearty dinner with barly water
-
"Lets." I jumped as the thunder exploded through the night sky. I jumped inside and started shaking. "Ugh... Storms..." I quickly recovered myself and tried to play it off like it didn't happen.
-
*i step inside while looking at the sky, thunder storms were my favorite weather, i walk over to the others and order some food, nothing expensive, but filling* "so.... what's the plann?"
-
*sitting in the middle of town listening to the thunderstorm meditating in peace*
-
"i don't know, should we go back to the crystal, then continue on to the port town, or just head to the town" uschi said between mouthfuls of food and drink "what do u guys think"
-
*sets down his drink and looks to scyler thoughtfully* "i'm not really sure how the crystals work, scyler, do we need to go to it before we leave?"
-
"The crystals guide us on our journey, they're the reason life and peace exist on this planet. Without the crystals, the world would be a dark void to be filled by evil. The evil still tries to overcome the power of the crystals, but thats why were here. The crystals amplify their power through us and we stop that evil. Yes we also have to swing by the fire crystal. It has something in store for us."
-
uschi shruggs "ok then we'll head out after dawn and then hit the crystal, then head over to that port town, right" uschi asked "and i can't fly, but idk if a chocobo will hold me up" she said listining to her chair creek and groan
-
"Simple, we get a cart to pull us all. We can just hook our chocobos up to it and then they'll share the weight." I placed an order for a few slices of brisket.
-
*i wolf down (no pun intended lol) my meat and drink and sit back* "then it's a plan, we have two rooms, uschi get's the one, we get the other" *i motion to the keys on the table, one next to uschi's plate the other by scyler and jo* "we should prolly get some rest if we're gonna get going early"
-
"ok and if the cart isn't strong enough, i can run" uschi shrugged finishing her food and drink in a gulp "mind if i go to bed, is there anything else we got to plan" uschu yawned, it would be her first night as a bear, not a falcon "thanks andre"
-
"Nah, go ahead Uschi." I looked as my plate of brisket and a small bowl of brown beans and a few rings of onion were placed in front of me. I thanked the fur behing the counter with 5 Gil. I slowly ate, drinking a cold glass of water. "This is delicious!"
-
"thanks dude, call me in the morning" uschi went ionto her room and fell asleep
-
"bye uschi, sleep well" *i playfully steal a pice of meat from scyler as he's distacted by her*
-
"I look at my plate and notice slicebof brisket missing. "Andre?" I looked at him, barbecue sauce on his muzzle. "And here I was thinking that Jinx was the thief..." I passed him a napkin and chuckled, ordering another small order of brisket. I took a piece of onion and ate it with my beans.
-
I grinn licking it off and drying my muzzle with the napkin "survival of the fittest?" i laugh a bit and lean back in my chair
-
uschi sleeps soundly in the room, the thundar thundering out side
-
"Pfft! More like survival of the slyest!" I slid him the small order of brisket and began to munch on mine again. "Ohh... This stuff is good..."
-
I laugh before eating some and order another drink "yeah, it is good, wow"
-
"Weshould get some dried meats for the trip. Unless we can convince Xander to hunt for us." I continued to eat my brisket, chewing it and savoring it.
-
"true, we could get some smoked meat and maybe some sausage? smoked or salted fish would be good too" i eat more of the briskit, it was well prepaired for being so inexpensive
-
"I wonder we can rent the cook from here?" I giggled and finished my brisket and beans. "Sir, that was delicious." I stood up and paid the man 15 Gil for all of the food and slowly began my way up to the room. "We can plan more in the morning. Right now, I'm tired..."
-
I finish eating and follow up to our room "yeah, i need to crash" i walk through the door and shut it behind me, droping my stuff next to scylers
-
(mind if i jump to morning, unless u want to add anthing andre)
-
(go for it if scyler has no problem, i was just gonna crash in our room)
-
(ok thanks)
***morning rolls around, the storm still not letting up*** uschi wakes up and rubs her face, walks out washes in the river then walks back and shurgs into her armor and walkes into the common room
-
"Weshould get some dried meats for the trip. Unless we can convince Xander to hunt for us.
(..Hah hah......)
I rolled over in the bed,then opened my eyes,being blinded by the bright sunlight,"..OW!..".I shot out of the bed and covered my eyes,then opened them and seeing aouras."..You guys awake yet?"
-
((dude it's raining, just saying))
-
I roll over under the blanket at the foot of the bed "merr!"
-
((dude it's raining, just saying))
(oh,I kno...heh..I had ta read it... :upupdi3: ....)
I rubbed my eyes and yawned and stretched,then fell ontop of andre on the bed.
-
"EGH!" i roll over and give X a nuggie
-
hears rough housing upstairs and laughes, eating her breakfast
-
I grabbed his arm an dgiggled,"..Owowowowow!.."
-
Lets X go and jumps on scyler "wake up sleepy head!"
-
~climbs ontop of andre~"..Heh,YEA!.."
-
"Nnnn... I'm up, I'm up..." I sat up in the bed and rubbed my eyes.
-
I poke scyler "bout time you got up, wanna go get some food?"
-
uschi wondered where the others were, "jeese i'd a figured they be hungry in the morning aftrer a long trip" she murmered eating some oatmeal
-
"Yeah, just gimme a minute..." I got out of bed and put my robes back on, strapped my swords to my belt, and put my magic tomes in my bag. "Alright... Food time!"
-
uschi looked up as her friends went down the stairs "morning"
-
"Hey, Uschi..." I took a seat next to her and ordered a few breakfast tacos. "I'll eat em on the road..."
-
"ok" uschi said picking up some stuff and leaving some gil on the table, "i'll go set up the choco's" she mumbled walking out
-
I took my tacos and put them in a small bag. I walked outside and helped Uschi rig up the chocobos to the cart. "Is something wrong, Uschi?"
-
"no" she said picking up her pace, leaving her stuff on the ground and pulling a choco to the side
-
"Ok, whatever..." I hooked up a chocobo to a harness and hooked it to the cart.
-
uschi hooks the rest of the choco's up and sits under a tree, waiting for the others
-
*I grab a breakfast burrito (best food ever invented) and run out the door, a few gill spinning on the counter as i leave* "hey scyler! are we ready to go?"
-
I ran down the stairs,then hopped over the last one and ran over to the bar,getting a burrito and walking out of the door.I felt around my pants to make sure I had my new knife and looked over my shoulder to make sure I had enough arrows."..I'm ready.."
-
"good me too" uschi said walking back her swords at her hips "hey guys srry i had some work to do so i made some weapons, u want me to make one for you guys" she asked picking up her pack
-
"nah, i like the ones i have, but if i ever break or loose these i'll take you up on that" *i say as i turn to her and scyler* "are we gonna move out?"
-
*Crawling out from under a table* "What's up?"
-
Facepawed. "Zabby... What on earth arevwe ever going to do with you...?"
-
"not much zabby, just getting ready to go" *shakes his head at zabby and walks over to scyler* "so, how are we traveling?"
-
"We have a cart that we're all going to ride on. Our chocobos are going to pull our cart to the fire crystal. After we stop there, we'll make out way to Graszton and get on a boat to Ixcathia."
-
*helps hook up the chocobos* "sounds good, lets go"
-
"hey mind if i walk for a bit of the journy i need to strech my legs" she said putting her pack in the cart and standing off a ways to not spook the choco's
-
*jumps into the cart* "sounds good, you can be our body gaurd lol"
-
"ok then right behind ya" she said sarchasticly mock looking awear and alert
-
I got up and walked out to the chokobos,petting one.
-
"Are we ready to go?"
-
"i'd imagine so" uschi said looking around at everything "hey sorry about yelling man"
-
"..I am..".My voice began to get scratchy from it's adjusting to the colder season.
-
"Lets go, we've got a long journey ahead..."
-
uschi shrugs and slaps the choco's hind quarters lightly getting them moving, her walking beside them, whistling a tune, something she heard when she was just a cub
-
*pulls scyler into the wagon with him* "sit with me?"
-
"Yeah, i'd love to..." I slide over and sit next to him, swords at a reachable distance.
-
keeps going enjoying the breeze and sun, and listening to the sopunds of nature
-
I walked behind the group,humming randomly.
-
drops back to walk with jojo "why arn't ya riding" she asked curious
-
~shrugs slightly~,"..Meh..it doesn't really matter for me.."
-
I laid back on the cart, gently resting and listening to the soothing sounds of nature.
-
*lays back with scyler and pulls the rain orb out letting it softly play the sound of rain on a shingle roof and tree leaves, i slowly drift to sleep using his mates arm as a pillow*
-
I listen to the slow pitter-patter of rain, the orb emanating the most relaxing sound to me.
-
uschi listened to the rain till she walked into a tree, half asleep already, jolted awake she shook her head and pluged her ears, trying to block out the calm rain noise
-
I looked up at the sky and opened my mouth,eyes closed.
-
uschi laughed quietly at the archer "it's those orbs ace made" she wispered laughing at jojo good naturedly seeing the big hole through the trees, inside is where the crystal was supposed to be "hey guys were here" she said gently stopping the choico's and gently shaking awake the 2 guys in the cart
-
( xD I was eatin' teh rain)
-
I jumped out of the cart, wrapping the orb in a cloth to dampen the sound. "Well, let's go on in..."
(Kipo, if you're still here, we're at the crystal)
-
"who wants to go into the deep dark hole first"
-
"I will." I channeled a light through my blade, illuminating the area around me. Slowly, I walked into the tunnel.
-
*jumps off the cart and follows close behind Ace, my pistol loose in it's holster with my paw on it*
-
I walked behind uschi,"..Uhhh....so where goin' in there?.."
-
followes the guys down the whole, her paws on her swords (wait i use swords, should i be like a soldier, or something, i'm srry)
-
(just be a knight)
I walked down the tunnel, my sword illuminating the area.
-
(thanks)
the knight followed the dog and eevee down till she saw the cystal
-
"..Uhh...".I jogged down to the group,following the light.
-
I reached the inner chamber, stopping the light from my blade. I stared up, remembering the 'skylight' I had left in my last visit. I walked up to the crystal. I touched it and a warm wave flowed through me. A strange fire engulfed me, burning blue and brightly. I fell to my knees, my power growing. I felt my robes disappear as I was lifted off of the ground. The fire, wrapped around me, burning a bright red now. Then, it changed to a fabric, sewing itself around me. My swords were left alone. I slowly drifted back to the ground. I stood up and turned to face the group. I had become a sage. "Whoa..."
-
uschi looked at ace "are you ok" she looked angrialy at the crystal
-
I came to a halt when I arrived at the chamber,shocked at what just happened,"...What's goin on?...color]
-
"I'm fine, guys. I just got an upgrade is all. Xander? You want to become a sniper? Touch the crystal."
(sniper still uses bows)
-
(..kk,gotcha..)
"..K,brother..".I walked up to the crystal,first laying a finger on it,then my whole paw.I didn't really feel anything at first,but then I found myself just above 3 inches off of the ground.I shut my eyes and slowly rose into the air,slowly opening them as I now hovered 10-15 feet above ground.I lost all feeling as my clothes desinigrated into thin air and a dark cloud engulfed me.I could see nothing.About 10 seconds later I found myself hovering with a tight black suit on,almost like a diving suit,and fell to the ground,ending up in a near face-meet-ground moment.I stood up and felt my new attire,"..Whoaaa.....that..was..AWESOME!.."
-
(he's basically wearing ninja gear)
"How do you feel, Xander?"
-
"cool" she said smiling, happy being a knight and looking at the sniper (btw are there palidens in here)
-
(Maybe if we go through another class change)
-
I shrugged and smiled,toothily,"....It feels so-",I turned and looked at my back,"..-So-...",I turned back around at the group,blushing,"...-Not me."I scratched my right ear.
-
"I know. You'll get used to it..."
-
*i step up to the crystal and look at Ace* "so... what happens if i touch it?"
-
"you get to freakin use hand cannons" uschi laughed trying to lift the mood a bit
-
"Well, if the crystal finds you worthy, it'll upgrade you." I pushed him forward onto the cystsl, not giving him a choice. "Trust me, Andre. You'll love it..."
-
I reach forward and touch the crystal, not really sure what will happen as a small arc of energy jumped from the crystal to my paw building into a near-blinding flash
(hey Ace, you need to fill it in for me okay? i have no idea what my upgrade would be >.< )
-
(it in 1st post, u upgrade to a flint lock, or cannoneer, and can use hand cannons)

(Thanks uschi, i forgot [feels stupid] )
The light consumed me as a low crackling sound washed over everyone, as it disipated i was left standing on the ground in heavy clothing befitting someone who uses large weapons, a Cannoneer
( :boom: ^.~ )

Xan the Black Mage currently sat under the shade of a tree, scribbling on a piece of parchment. "Let's see...carry the two...times by eighteen...minus four...crap! I can't figure it out!"
-
Name: Devault
Age:18
Species: Lynx
Job: Monk
Weapons: Of course, none
Skills: extremely concentrated when need calls, but doesn't know his skills
starting place: somewhere outside of the tunnel, he isn't sure where
Where... Where was he? He truly had no idea... And his head was throbbing quite a bit, from... From something, he couldn't quite remember. Curse this amnesia, or memory, or... He was having trouble even coming up with words. Slowly, he kept trudging onward, but was suddenly interrupted by the sudden flashes of light ahead of him, seemingly coming from a tunnel. Curiously, he made his way towards whatever was happening, her eyes squinting for light as he made his way down, his steps paced and rather quiet.
-
"So, where do we go ne-" I freeze as I hear the faint sound of footsteps. I draw one of my swords and wait by the tunnel entrance into the chamber with the crystal. I motioned for everyone to keep going on like I wasn't there. I waited for the unknown fur to step through the entrance.
-
I kept going, sliding along the walls of the cavern, listening for something, an ything to help me figure out what that curious light was. There it was, voices, somebody was talking, and- There was something else, just a momentary sound... It was metal against metal, he could barely hear it. It soudned almost like the unsheathing of a sword. Wincing, he stayed where he was, flattened against the dark wall and listening for footsteps of anybody approaching. This wasn't good...
-
I snuck behing the nearest tree,making as little sound as possible,loaded my bow,and aimed.
-
"Hmm... Guess it was just my imagination...." I sheathed my sword and walked back to the group, silently placing a very weak thunder spell, only meant to stun, at the entrance to go off by a trip wire. "So, should we go ahead and go to Graszton?"
-
I lowered my bow and looked up at brother,unsurely,"...Who?."
-
With a silent sigh, I hear him say that it was just his imagination. Unfortunately, he didn't hear the nockign of the arrow, or sense the trap being set, so curiously, I slid a bit closer towards the entrance, keeping firm against the wall. As I finally got close enough to peek out - ZAP!
-
I jump into the air, pointing my weapon at the stunned stranger "WHA!?"
-
I turn around and pounce him, drawing my sword and pinning him to the ground. I pressed my blade to his throat. "Who are you, and why are you here...?" I had no intention of hurting him unless he meant harm to us.
-
Everything seemed to blur for a few seconds, and it was like my own body wasn't even responding to anything I told it. Before I could blink, there was something pointed at me... A gun of some sorts? And blade right at my throat. Slowly recovering from the stun, I answer.
"I... I'm Devault" was my slow response, as if I couldn't remember my own name.

(hey devault can have my spot as a chosen one, i'm out)
uschi turned around to look at the newcommer, and just before she spoke there was a cave in and she pushed her friends out of the way as rubble tumbled down on top of the bear.
-
"U-USCHI!!!!" I clawed at the ground, trying to get to her. "U... Uschi..." I sat back, tears rolling down my face. "W... Why.......?"
-
I could onyl blink as in an instant the stranger was off of him and digging at the rubble where... Uschi, apparently, was buried. I was in too much of a daze, and couldn't exactly understand something, but... I knew I was going to get blamed for this.
-
I ran over next to him,helping get the rubble off of her,bawling my eyes out,'........uschi...come on you big bear..'
-
I let the power of nature flow through me, I stood up and, using Geomancy, lifted the rubble off of her. I discarded it on the other side of the cavern. I knelt over her battered and bruised body, she wasn't breathing. I tried to revive her, buut it was all for naught. A small wisp of fire rose from her body. It then flew straight at Devault. I blinked as tears rolled down my cheeks. "Goodbye, Uschi. Rest in peace..." I dug a grave and put her body inside, sealing it with dirt. I turned and looked at the newcomer, the flame hovering in front of him.
-
My eyes widened suddenly as suddenly, there was a flame hovering right above him. He was surprised he wasn't burning alive, with the way it was... so... Close... He writhed around a bit, wondering what was going on, and just kind of staring blankly above him.
-
I stare through the episode in shock and dismay unable to even move as Ace tried to help our friend, all i could manage was a wimper and some tears as the reality settled in, I hugged ace and cried softly, watching the newcomer with shock and unintrest
-
I looked at the newcomer, my eyes watering. The flame slowly drew closer to him.
Devault... You are the new chosen one... Reach out and sieze your true potential... The flame spoke straight to his soul. This was the voice of the fire crystal.
I looked and wondered what was going to take place.
-
I look up from my mates shoulder at the stranger, wondering what he will do next...
-
I was wiggling around, slowly trying to crawl away from that spooky, yet eerily calming fire. When it spoke though, I had half the mind to run away and never think about this again, but before he could, it closer and touched him chest, right where his heart was. Everything seemed to go white for him for a moment, and when he opened his eyes, he felt... Strangely warm. After a few blinks, he looked down at himself, wondering what had changed, and for some reason, there was a karate belt, a black one, around his waist. Nothing else had changed though.
"Wha..." he whispered.
-
I stared, wondering what just happened. "Why...?"
-
I did not fully understand it either, and just kind of stared for a few more moments. "Chosen...?" I whispered to myself (gotta head out for the night)
-
I stare at the stranger as he changes, empowered by the fire "w.... wha?"
-
I pick up my sword and sheath it. "Apparently something just happened..." I walked over and touched the crystal, getting all of the imformation on it. "Huh... Ok then..." I walk back over to the stranger and lend him a paw. "Apparently, he's our new companion..."
-
I wished I could say something empowering, something inspiring to everybody else, but I already felt like a curtch to them, seeing asI didn't even know their names, yet I had replaced one of their friends. I don't know what to say, so I said nothing.
-
I step forward to the stranger and slowly speak to him, unsure of what to say "welcome.. to the quest.... i hope you're ready... "
-
I wished I could do something, show everybody here that i wasn't useless, and that I wasn't evil or anything. Was I? I shook my head slowly, trying to remember even how I got here in the first place. Groaning slightly, I face all of them, eyes mostly on the stranger closest to me. "I..." I start, then cough. "I'm... Devault. Who..." I trail off.
-
"Well... Uhh... Welcome?" I scratched the back of my head nervously, not sure of what to do next.
-
I was feeling every bit as akward as everybody else, if not more so. For them to suddenly trust some sranger with their life? That was something I didn't want to think about. "Who are you all..." I mused.
-
I snapped back into reality. "Oh, guess I should have introduced ourselves... I'm Acies, but you can call me Ace for short." I pointed to my brother, the sniper. "That would be Xander, my little brother." My paw wandered over to the malamute holding the hand cannon. "And this is my mate, Andre. We're three of the chosen ones. You would be the fourth." I walk up and shake your paw. "Welcome aboard, Devault!"
-
I smiled toothily and put my bow behing my back.
-
I could only blink in disbelief as I listened intently to what was described for me. Andre Ace and Xander.... I sigh. "I... I hope I can live up to expectations" I whispered, tilting my head to the right.
-
I lower my cannon and alk up beside Ace "the crystal chose you, that is something we have to accept, and so you are a part of our quest, but you still must proove yourself to us as individuals" I offer a paw in partnership "but i see no reason you will dissapoint"
-
"Well, no better chance than now to prove yourself. We've got company..." I draw my twin shortswords and walk up to the tunnel. "There's about 30 bandits out there who are waiting to ambush us." I slowly began to walk up the tunnel. I channelled thunder spells through my swords. I pinned myself to the wall, waiting for a few bandits to get impatient and make their way down the tunnel. "Stat quiet and wait for the opportunity to strike..."
-
I walk forward through the tunnel waiting for my mate to begin the violence whipering to him "you take a few with your blades, i'll take a few more with my shells" I hold up my weapon grinning
-
I nodded in return, taking the paw in friendship after a silght hesitation. I could do this, I could... When Ace announced the bandits outside, I jerk my head swiftly towards the entrance, and follow suit with Ace, flattening my back to the wall and waiting. Could I even fight? I couldn't remember...
-
I watched the entrance closely, waiting for some bandit foolish enough to wander inside. I readied my swords as three of them made their way into the tunnel. I waited until two of them passed me in the dark. I jumped out behind the third, muffling him and stabbing him before frying his brain with a sharp bolt of electricity. I pinned myself to the wall again, waiting for the two to come check on their comrade. "Theyre yours, guys." I said in a barely audible whisper.
-
I waited, and right as they were about to reach me, I prepared to leap out. I stopped though, hearing the sickening sound of blade sinking into flesh, and then the smell... I winced. When the other two had passed by, I reaided myself again, but remembered that I had no weapon. What did I fight with... Cursed amnesia! All I could do was wait for now, and hope something comes to mind.
-
I dug in my pack and pulled our a pair of gauntlets with spiked knuckles. "Here..." I tossed the gauntlets to him, careful not to toss the sharp ends at him. "You do fight with your fists, right?"
-
My first instinct was to duck under them and dodge, but the instant I saw them, my mind seemed to do a double take. Within an instant, I caught them perfectly on my paws, and felt the surprisingly natural feel... It was almost nostalgic. Grinning, I silently lept out of my dark and found my target without a hitch. Before I could even blink there was a hole in the back of the bandit's neck and my weapon was bloody. I didn't even remember attacking.
-
"Wow... Trained killer, much?" I leapt from my spot on the wall and buried my sword in the back of the last bandit. I pulled my blade out of him and slowly inched closer to the tunnel entrance.
-
I just shook my head slowly, trying to rid myself of the strangely warm feeling of blood. Strangely warm... With another shake I followed Ace silently to the entrance.
-
"Ok, there's still quite a few bandits our there. You up to the challenge, Dev?" I channeled fire through my blades, heating the blades to a bright red.
-
I blinked a few times, wincing away whenever his blades began to glow that eerily irridescent hue. "Okay..." was my slightly timid response, but inside, I knew for some reason that I could take them without breaking a sweat (sorry for slowness ^^;)
-
I pat my mate on the shoulder and smile lifting my small powerful weapon "hold on a moment, i don't want to miss all the fun" I slip up to the entrance and wait for the others to position themselves and fire, an explosive shell flying into the bandits, the bomb going off and clearing a hole in their group, then I drew my sword and dagger and looked to Scyler "shall we dance?"
-
Before I knew what was really going on, I found myself out in the middle of the panicking bandits, who were still reeling after the explosion that had rocked their numbers but a moment ago. I found myself feeling like I was dancing, sweaving in and out of them as they struck in a wild panic. It was strangely familiar, and strangely nice... It scared me.
-
"Lets!" I jumped Ito the fray, my blades burning with a mystical fire. I slashed through one bandit with my flaming sword, the searing heat ending him. I saw a small group of three fixing to rush me. I put my blades above my head, did a 360 degree spin before bring them down in an X-slice on the group, burning the bandits and causing them to fall lifelessly to the ground. I changed my blades to ice and prepered to attack more bandits(22).
-
I look on the bandits as i run into the fray, the vile filth taking up our air and space, i decide to forgo the finnese for the first part of this fight and run into them with my blades out and to the sides, using the force i gain from running down at them, cutting them down as i pass, running in a curve live a giant sword had cleared a path through them
(16)
-
I hardly had any concious thoughts of what I was doing, and since all I could really tell was that things were a bit hectic and bloody, I was sure I was doing fine. It was strangely fun, strangely nice, dancing around the bandits, all trying to stab me... I couldn't explain it. Eventually, I started feeling blood on my paws, and when I glanced down for a minute, the bandits that were around me were collapsed on the ground in mangled heaps. (11)
-
ghost flew into the clearing, ropes trailing from her wrists just beneath her knuckes, she landed and shot out punches at some bandits here and there "alalalalala" she yelled swinging her arms (3)
-
I jump out at the remaining three bandits, lashing out with my ice blades, freezing the filth solid. With a flash of my swords, I shattered them, the ice shattering and melting.(0) I looked at Ghost, eyes wide and watering. "G...Ghost...? But... I just saw you die...!" Ilefted my swords in defense, prepared for anything. "Who are you?! And who was Uschi?!?!"
-
I practically drop my blades as i see ghost "Wha..what?" I look to scyler for an answer compleatly confused, but glad to see my friend again
-
I blink a few times in deisbelief as the rest of the bandits seem to drop dead for nearly no reason. But then- Is that... an angel? I didn't ask, but I waited.
-
"ok 1: uschi was an imposter from the dark king from another land, the onewere fight against 2: she tied me up and i just got untied and flew here as fast as i could 3: who is the new kid" ghost said slightly smiling before looking at her friends and the newcommer, cracking her knuckles "hey i've been stuck in an icehummak for a few days, i needed really to bust some skulls, i'm still pissed at that bear, where is she so i can toast her"
-
I point to the cavern "she got crushed by the cavern when the roof caved in... i guess the fire crystal knew what was goin on.... "
-
"dude the crystal knows all" she said seriously rubbing her face "srry about that guys" ghost paused "i was kinda mean before i left, and i apoligse" she said tiredly (and if that was cheap, srry) "hello" she said to the lynx, seeing how he looked and he was chilling with her friends "sweet, i'm not chosen any more" she smiled and spread her wings, turning her face to the sun
-
I wasn't quite sure what to say. So the person who had been crushed in the cave was an imposter for this spirit or something? I was pretty lost, but only nodded my head and gave a hello in return. "I'm Devault" was my simple and bland response to the strange being in front of m.
-
"good to meet you" she said grabbing his hand in a firm shake, careful of the spikes on the gauntlet. "i apoligse but you'll have to excuse me for a moment" ghost said smiling and hugging scy and andre "i missed you guys so much"
-
I just nodded in return, shakign it warily, almsot as if the entire moment was some kind of ethereal dream.
-
I hugged her back, overjoyed to have not lost my friend, nearly in tears...
-
I ran up the her and gave her a huge hug, a tear forming in my eyes. "Youre really here... The real you..."
-
I just watched from the back, feeling like I was just some kind of replacement who got the expectations pushed onto me. There wasn't much I could say or do, I could just watch.
-
He somehow ends up here. He looks around really confused at where he is and what's going on here. :sniffle: ???
-
(hey jesse, if ya want to join check out OP and give us teh info ^^ )
I look back to Devault and walk up to him "hey, i know you must feel like a total outsider, but we did just loose then regain our friend, so sorry if we're a bit emotional. I will say exellent fighting though, you were like the breath of death itself, where did you learn to fight like that?"
-
"ya sorry if this is a bit much man" ghost said apoligeticaly to the lynx
-
I turned slowly towards Andre, trying a ready a respnose that wouldn't show that my memories were nearly gone. "Lots of practice" was my answer, and for what it was worth, I was secretly hoping to draw the attention away fro myself so that they wouldn't pry deeper into things I didn't even know about. And being called the breath od death made me wince a bit, but I hid it well. I nodded towards the ghost as well, motioning for them to go on like I wasn't there.
-
"well ok then, should we rest for a bit and get some food" ghost smiled, looking around for her pack, last she remembered the bear had it, all her money and the orb and the food and gear, a look of dread came on to her face "don't tell me my stuff is under a pile o rock, isn't it"
-
I point to the cave "it's next to the grave inside, don't worry, nothing was crushed... other that the imposter"
-
"thanks man" ghost said flying into the hole and looked around for her pak
