Needless to say, Takeshi found his tone to be rather... annoying and sought to make this man understand just who he was talking to.

"By magic, do you mean that sleazy dribble of utterances and rehearsed lines you call charm? I'll have you know that you're barking up the wrong tree, buddy. This lady is The Tenma's daughter, and I am her Guardian, so I recommend you scurry off like the rat you are.", Takeshi said with a rather wry smile as he leaned forward.

"Come on, Takeshi. Lay off for a while. I don't blame him for wanting to get it on with me~" Kazeane winked playfully at Takeshi before turning to Draven. "But yeah, sorry sonny. I'm probably thousands of years older than you and besides... I'm not into creepy guys like you. Sorry~"

Pine Grove | Chronomacer's Tower

Zena couldn't help but frown at both Zero and Bruam for leaving. She didn't hold anythng against them for doing so. They had their reasons for wanting to leave. Maybe they feared the dragon? maybe they had other important things to do, who knows. But Zena could not leave, especially not with her commanding officer there watching her. And while she coudlnt' stop them from leaving, she called out to them. "WAIT!" she said just trying to get their atention. "Thank you, both of you. We couldn't have made it without your help." she spoke to both of them before giving them a slight bow. after that she woudl just watch them leave.

Seki remained docile as Azeruk approached Doden. The advocate turned to him and nodded. "You must be the guardian of this tower. A bit younger than I would have expected. What do you need friend?" he asked him being very kind and friendly. A respectable authority figure indeed.

Pine Grove | Bone Dragon Fortress

The skeleton bartender stumbled at first, but quickly regained his composure. He popped a few bones back in place and then answered the girl's question. Ay, the mistress calls for her dragon. When we arrive, all her enemies shall parish." As one of Seki's undead, he knew and could understand Orgok's orders. Questioning him might do some good, but her allies were in danger and needed her help. What would the fox do?

Meanwhile Vordread actually managed to catch the spear before it reached his skull.... by letting it stab right through his hand. He was damaged for sure, but in a place that wasn't very important. The undead swung his blade with his one good hand, sending out another wave of dark energy liek he had done before. This one was less damaging but with a much wider range. He wasn't' trying to kill him with this attack he wanted to push him back. Vordread was actually starting to like Saru. He was showing real courage and determination in their fight. But alas, he was still his enemy.

Draven just scoffed at the bird man's response... until he heard mention of it being Tenma.

"Ah so I am in the right place..." He whispered as he unsheathed one of his cleavers before spinning it around while standing in a rather... carefree pose before tossing it up into the air. As the blade flew into the air it got within sight of Takeshi and Kazeane, but not too close to be dangerous at all... What... was off was that it was slightly covered in blood. Fresh blood. After it came back down he caught it rather expertly. "Oh yeah? Well you don't know who you're talking with either. The name if you haven't guessed by now is Draaaaven, and personally... Draven doesn't care if a girl's royalty or not. A woman's a woman no matter the age, and I'll tell you. She's one fine birdie~" Replied Draven as he stood in a more serious pose.

"Unless... You actually want to get in my way Mister 'I'm her Guardian' or would you like to just fly out of the way and let the Adults talk?"



Pine Grove | Chronomacer's Tower

Braum stopped when he heard Seki call out and thank him. The strong man from the mountains smiled as he turned around and waved back at her with the most warm and friendly smile a man like him could give. With his moustache he seems like a very jolly, and generally kind man just like he was when they met earlier despite the... not so good circumstances they met in.
What he said next was interesting.

"Braum thanks good Friends! It was pleasure helping such kind-hearted girl and brave girl, strong dragon boy, and others. Now Braum is off to city of Sanctuary... but first I need to find city..."




Pine Grove | Bone Dragon Fortress

Saru was both shocked and impressed at Vordred's speed and reaction time. He was capable of catching the spear, despite it going through his hand. This undead warrior is truly a worthy match. When Vordred sent another wave of energy at Saru, the young Apex managed to thankfully block it by grabbing a iron shield and holding it infront of him to protect himself from taking damage. Although the shockwave did push Saru back at least 4-5 feet even when he was holding his own. Right after the shockwave was gone, Saru took the shield and threw it at Vordred like a large throwing disc. It was a little hard to throw, but he managed to throw it at Vordred's general direction.

"Right, so as I'm pretty sure you know, this dragon is not going to be easy to kill on owr own, so I wanted to tell you that there's still a lot of guardians in the tower, and even some in the lake. At the very least, they should be able to help. Also, we need to find a way to actually damage the dragon, because if we resort to swords, then nothing would happen. I should also mention that I may be able to help with my magic, either by damaging things by aging them to dust, or slowing them down for you guys. In the end, my resources are at your disposal, so how should we destroy this dragon?", Azeruk asked Doden.

Takeshi lightly frowned at Kazeane's response to him and looked away from Draven and Kazeane before hearing a blade being unsheathed and thrown into the air. It wasn't hard to see the blood on the blade, and when Takeshi did, he furrowed his brow before rising to his feet on the branch and squatting. It seemed like a somewhat unusual way to stand in a tree, but Takeshi had his reasons to do so. Whatever this man's intent, Takeshi was going to make sure that he would be crawling out of the jungle, or not at all.

"You're one to talk kid. I'm old enough to be your great great great great greatgreatgreatgreatgreatgreatgreat grandfather. It's rather childish to think that you've got a chance at all, both with wooing her and shooing me away. I have to ask though, why would a man be 'sarging' in the middle of the jungle? You don't have any large bags, pack animals, or even guards, so you're not a trader. You're not a diplomat, because you definitely have no class, and you are not a simple commoner because you have a blade covered in blood. So then, Draven... will you tell us why you're here, or should I bend you over and spank you like the child you are until I get answers?", Takeshi said with the same grin as before.

Draven's facial reaction was... off... it was definitely not what one would expect as he just gave the most sadistic, if not creepy grin one would expect from a man like him. He then took out both his weapons and began spinning them at his side as if they were propellors. The speed they spun at was quite fast as they were creating just enough wind to blow his hair back.

"Let me tell you what. Draven is not a kid. I have more blood on my hands than you'd expect. Draven has kept track of his kills. So far. One Hundred and Ninety Nine. I've slain entire armed squads. I have a RIGHT to be me. Besides I don't care what you call me. Draven is Draven and that's all that matters." He spoke as he let out a loud, boisterous laugh before looking right at Takeshi then Kazeane.


"Now onto the real business. I'm here to get some info on some magic books. I don't really care for that but I was promised quite a lot of cash, and a good challenge. Sadly I'm already disappointed with one of those two, and I haven't gotten any info on any books now have I? So you can guess which one Draven is upset with."

Pine Grove - Chronomancer's Tower

Zero turned around to see Zena. "I'm only heading back to Sanctuary. Also." He said and then pointed to his arm scales. "Hold it tight and pray. Help will come." He said before weapping himself in a crimson wind and vanished.

Pine Grove | Chronomacer's Tower


"It's coming back" Ewlyin suddenly said. "The dragon? How do you know? Did you see it?" Lucaia answered slightly confused. "I saw it for a split second between the trees. When we arrive you ready an All seeing eye. I'll see if I can find Chronux" Ewlyin answered. "Wait, are you thinking of fighting that thing? Alone?! Just..., fine, but you're on your own. Just be careful and pull out if things get to dangerous" Lucaia said, halfway biting her teeth together.

After another another minute of riding they finally reached the tower, the same place as all the others were gathered. Lucaia quickly got off and began drawing an alchemy circle on the ground. She could do it without one, but it was easier if she had one handy. At the same time Ewlyin also got of and walked up the the people already there. "Excuse me, I'm Ewlyin earlier pupil of Chronux. Me and my master here just arrived after coming here as soon as possible after seeing the dragon. What's the situation here at the moment? Also, the reason we came here,I'm looking for Chronux and I'm worried about him considering that happened to the tower, has anyone here seen him? While he's no longer my master, I still care for him" Ewlyin asked the ones there.

Pine Grove | Bone Dragon Fortress

Pushing Saru back was all the skeleton needed to do. With one hand, he moved a wall up from the floor between himself and Saru, The shield hit the wall and bounced off as Vordread spoke from the other side. "Time to die monkey man. I'd love to stay and finish you myself, but we'll be landing soon and I can't keep master waiting." he said before causing bone spikes to form on Saru's side of the wall. The wall then started to slowly move in Saru's direction, threatening to crush him if he didn't find his way out. There was a door on the other side of the hall, but would he have known that? If he remembered it from before things went dark then he may of had a chance to escape. Once he went through the door, he would find himself in the same room as Nera.

Pine Grove | Chronomacer's Tower

Doden took a moment to consider everything Azeruk had said before making a quick decision. The more help they had the better. A chronomage just might be what they needed to tip the scales. "Yes any help we can get is appropriated. As for how we plan to kill it, when It gets here, we'll have the necromancer order it to land so we can get the others out. I think someone mentioned there were still people inside the fortress? Once their out we have two options blast the dragon with everything we have or see if any of them have found a way to destroy it from the inside."

Just as Doden was finishing his explanation, he and Azeruk would hear one of the other men calling out "LOOOK THERE IT IS!!"

The massive dragon was returning. Quickly appearing from the other side of the lake. The dragon managed to travel a great distance in a very short amount of time, it would only be a few more minutes until the creature was upon them. The necromancer wore a sly smirk on her lips as she saw Orgok coming back to get her. weather the others knew it or not, they had already lost. "Tell me gentlemen, lady." she said nabbing their attention for moment. "Have any of you ever heard of a mortal's mask?" she asked them coyly.

Zena had a look of confusion on her face as she pondered what the girl had said. "That sounds... so familiar, but where have i heard it?" Th elven girl looked over to Doden, perhaps he had the answer. Or maybe Azeruk knew?

Doden couldn't' seem to remember either. But he was thinking really hard like he had heard it somewhere before too. Eventually it was he geomancer that spoke up. "You gonna tell us a fairy tale? There's no such thing, it's just a story parents tell their children to keep them from sneaking out at night." When he said that, both Doden and Zena seemed to suddenly remember what it was. but they were cut off before they could sy anything.

Seki's eyes were now closed, looking as if she were in a state of deep meditation. "The mortal's mask grants the creatures of he night immunity to the sun. However, in exchange for this protection. The vampire is only able to use 10% of their power. But if that's all just a fairy tale then you won't have to worry right?"" Seki was stalling them just long enough for her plan to take effect.

The moment the dragon's shadow was looming over her, her eyes shot open. Only now they were blood red. Her hair changed as well, from blond to black and all of her wounds started healing at a rapid rate. She had no intention of getting Orgok to land. So long as he was above them, she had protection from the sun. And even if they managed to kill her, the dragon would then crush them all from above. If they managed to take out the dragon however, then that would actually put Seki in a bad spot, but doing that would also kill the innocent people inside.

The vampire got back on her feet, grabbing hold of her binding chains and spinning her whole body around. The men that were holding her chains tight began to swing around her body like a pinwheel as the vampire untangled herself from the chains. she moved so quickly that all of her moments appeared as blurs. She started swinging the chains around her body, along with the men holding to them as she tied them all together. When she finally stopped, all the soldiers were caged into a ball of their own chains and were sent flying into what little was left standing of the tower.

She tossed them aside like it was nothing before turning back to the others. "Rules of nature." she said before giving Doden and the geomancer the 'come on' sign. However before they rushed in for round two, Seki took control of the spirit in Doden's armor yet again. This time lifting him up by it and slamming him down into the geomancer. The geomancer was out cold, but Seki wasn't' finished. She brought Doden just above her own head. She held him in place, an open hand held just under his frame as she gave him a malevolent smile. he hadn't forgotten what he did to hear earlier and now it was time for payback. "Checkmate." she said before closing her hand into a fist, causing the spirit to constrict, crushing every bone in his body until he was dead. blood was leaking from his armor as the vampire drank from it like a fountain. She murdered him in cold blood, without so much as flinching.

Zena tried to awaken the other level 5 advocate but it was no use. He had taken a nasty blow to the head and couldn't be woken up. He was still alive, but hewas out cold. Zena would have tried to heal him, but she was already at her limit. all the fighting and helaing she had already done took it's toll on her. She managed to lift the man up on one shoulder, reaching into reserves she didn't even know she had, but she was clearly in no condition to fight. With Zero and Braum already gone, that only left Azeruk and Aion and a dragon. Zena would have still tried to help in any way she could, but it didn't look good for them. The vampire finished her drink and threw Doden's crushed body away, staring down the remaining fighters. "....Go. you're of no use to me. I have more important matters to attend to, so just go. Or you can stay here and fight a battle you have no chance of winning. What'll it be?" she asked them in a very cold tone. She acted all cheery and silly up until now, but now she looked dead serious.
