In Character

With the situation calmed down, alistair removed the mask, since the power was not needed. As he removed the mask, a bright light shines as he reverted to his normal form. The light disappeared, and alistair is back to his normal self. He saw kage and walked to her, he smiled at her, seeing she is free now. "She is free! You guys did it!" proxi yelled in excitement. 

"No....I'm not." She said quietly, looking down at her feet. "Those are dragon proof." Nobody in the group, but maybe Alistair could touch the slightly green chains due to that fact.

"you already heard my name a few times. but im Asura." He smiled genuinely at Kage. Seeing her up close caused his chest to feel weird. "i dunno who or where the other people came from. but that one acting like a disgruntled kid is Suo."


"im not acting like a pissed off kid!" Suo fired off after hearing Asura. "and what are we gonna tell Angelina if we bring these people with us? you know she's..." He didn't finish the statement. "and hey! don't hate the player. hate the game." He answered back at hearing Violet but his tone gave away that his mind was on other things. His facing showing worry for Angelina. They'd left the little girl in the woods outside of town as angelina was scared of people.


Asura looked back at Kage and down at her feet. "first we need to get the rest of those off. but for now..." Asura swung his fist downwards on the chain-links connecting the cuffs and used a cushion of gravity at his knuckles to break the chain-links without touching the things. "sorry, should've told you i was gonna do that first."

The entire day he had been dealing with this scent. why would there be such a collection of different... hims around? it had been driving him mad!


 That's how Animal had ended up here. he had tracked the scent here and currently was circling the main source. 


 this girl couldnt be more than 10 years, and she smelled so much like him, and yet so different. more scents traveled off towards the city. this was maddening! 


 slipping through mass the branches above, he watched the girl who waited. the others must plan to come back. but why had they left her originally?


 his eyes shimmered with an emerald glow as he silently crept about the world. she smelled so young. leaving a child like this...


Animal hissed at the thought, getting comfortable above. why would he care so much? he really couldn't say. he just didn't want to leave her here, at least not alone...


@Shiro kurogane
 
"Impressive work Asura. You must have had a lot of practice working on that. My name is Violet I'm from a village full of farmers. I left to try and find my parents who bailed on me as a baby. Pleasure to meet you Kage." Violet still wore her smile with pride.


@Shiro kurogane @FireMaiden
 
"sorry!" Asura quickly apologized again, hearing Kage's yelp. His gaze seemed to harden at seeing the bruised on kage's legs. But then it softened again when his eyes met hers. "anything hurting?" He asked then looked at Violet for a split second, "that particular move wasn't trained. it just kinda happened"


Suo handed Asura a can of the paste he'd made that healed Kage's finger earlier.


@FireMaiden @Baku @Emperor Of Embers





Angelina stood where she'd promised to wait for Asura and Suo. Her head snapped skyward as she scented a scent like her own nearby. Her small frame started trembling visible as she tried to make herself small.


@Mistory
 
"Oh that's even better if you pulled it off with no training. Wish I had your talents." Violet felt jealous at how talented Asura was. Albeit only a tiny bit. Being talented just meant she wouldn't have had to train as a kid. "So now that we saved Kage here where are we off to?"


@Shiro kurogane @FireMaiden
 
another hiss erupted from above, eyes glaring down at her. she seemed terrified of him. what could he do..?


slipping to the trees, he slowly brought himself to the ground. He slowly came closer, staying low to the ground. hos knuckles grazed the grad as he crawled closer, looking her over.


 "...you...o...k?"


the voice was scarred,worn, harsh, and full of hesitation. as if he hadn't spoken in years.


"...not...hurt?"

"well firstly, we need to get Kage proper clothes. uh... actually, can i ask you to do that? get her clothes?" He asked hoping Violet would say yes. Asura before now had never glanced twice at a girl. So he didn't know what they liked to wear.


Suo rolled his eyes at Asura. "told you, ya should have tried to talk to girls more"


@FireMaiden @Baku





Angelina fell onto her butt and crawled backwards until her back touched a tree. The fear accumulated over the years of people shone brightly in her eyes. She didn't respond verbally to the man who smelled the same as her, Asura and Suo. Angelina shook her head no to the man's question.

"Now that we saved your friend, where are you guys gonna go? I was wondering if Alistair and I could tag along with you." Proxi said to Suo and Asura. Alistair was wanting to know, but he thinks the Fairy's delivery could be better, and not sound too aggressive. @Shiro kurogane
 
seeing that look in her eyes made animal freeze, before letting his eyes fall to the ground, backing away. He was so used to that look. the fear of others. he only nodded, putting some space between him and her, hoping she would relax.


"s...sor...ry..."


 a sincere apology, but with his voice and appearance it was hard to take it as such.


he had hoped she wouldn't be so fearful, seeing as they were the same. at least that's what the scent told him. 


He grumbled to himself, taking a seat at a tree across from her. He didn't look at her, keeping his eyes on his worn hands.


in the light this boy was filthy. grime and dried blood layered his skin and worn rags he wore as clothing. there was no telling how long he had been out there...


@Shiro kurogane
 
"Of course I'll do it. I have some clothes in a cave I'm living in. Are you guys going to stay here or you want to come with? Because my place has enough space for all of you." This was a rare occasion because Violet was very territorial of her cave. But Kage needed some clothes and the others could stay outside and get something to eat while Violet got Kage some clothes.

(Sorry, I had a meeting to go to, I would have responded earlier)


It seems their argument is intensifying. Alas started to back away by a little, trying to not be seen as suspicious, but  he can't help it but know what the group is saying, he starts to inch in a little closer where the groups words can be understood better if you assume some of the sentences they say. Alas' eyes widen a bit as he saw the group engage physical combat, or more like punch a dude once. Should he step in? Alas hesitates for a moment, but decides to stay and continued to try to listen to the group. Alas guesses what they did is right? Maybe he should alert the guards? No wait, he can be the one to stop them if they're bad! That's how he'll gain his glory. He can see it now, Alas, hero of the town, fighter of crime. Maybe they're good guys and he's ruining their quest? What if he ends up being the cause of a disaster? 


Alas looses concentration on the other groups conversation for a bit, then stops daydreaming and continues to listen in. Looks like there's one way to find out. 
 
Phaius noticed someone eavesdropping, and said loudly and obviously, "You know it's rude to listen in on other people's conversations right?" He also said it in a 'don't give anything away' tone of voice, for he knew the eavesdropper was human, and probably more than just a civilian, maybe a guard or in worst case scenario, a dragon hunter.

"That would be....great, if you don't mind," She said quietly. "If....if you don't m-mind," She said still said rather timidly. Kage kinda tightened the blanket around herself.


@Shiro kurogane @Emperor Of Embers
 
As Keres picked up her son, an arrow shot twoards them, grazing her leg. "My leg!" She gasped. "Everyone get down! Hunters!" She yelled.

"Of course I don't mind Kage I'm the one who invited you. As for the rest of you guys just keep heading north. You know your going the right way when you see some frost in the area. For now it's just me and Kage." Violet took Kage's arm and started guiding her to the cave. "So you have any family Kage?"


@FireMaiden
 
Damn! How did that man manage to see him? Alas was acting 100% legit with no tone of sarcasm. Maybe he didn't see him or thought of someone else nearby. Alas started to whistle and fiddle around with his thumbs as he looks up in the sky, acting casual for one might say. If you call being obvious casual. 


"Man, what a beautiful day it is, I should go start to walk to my .... " Alas says softly as he starts to mumble gibberish to himself acting totally casual.

@FireMaiden

"I uh....had family," She said quietly. "Though, it's been years since I've seen them, much less know if their still alive," She sounded sad when she said this. Truth be told,the only family she even possibly has left is her uncle, but even that was a long shot.
 
"great and yeah, we'll be staying for awhile. but me and Suo have another member in our group. a little girl named Angelina, she one of us." Asura answered than shared a look with Suo who nodded once and got, heading to where Angelina was.  Asura unintentionally hovered near Kage protectively. Hearing her response to Violet felt like his feels had been hit by a boulder.


Suo set off at a brisk pace to where Angelina had told him she's wait for him and Asura.


@FireMaiden @Baku





Angelina's fear lessened, bit only slightly now that the man had moved a bit away. She saw that the man seemed hurt by her reaction. But with the way she'd been treated up to a month ago, her fear of people was still strong. "i-its o-okay." Came she reply with a soft, near unhearable tone.


@Mistory
 
he didn't respond. how could he? he wasn't exactly sure what he could do to make her at ease. thinking he got a thought, reaching under his robes. pulling a small leather punch, he moved closer. when he was about 5 feet away, he leaned, not daring to take another step, and rested the now open pouch in arms reach if this little girl. berries. he was offering berries. now at this distance his eyes were shown. and while they shined with a brilliant green in the light, they also shown how dull they were. dead eyes. He was blind. 


 while this wasn't obvious to a girl of her age, they definantly looked off, with no pupils to speak of. his hair was matted and long, reaching the grass at his knuckles.


 once he had given her the fruit, he backed away again, returning to his place at the tree. he didn't have much,but she had been out here for a time, and those were just for the taste. he didn't need them. food was everywhere. just none she could eat...
