Alizabe stopped dead with the sound of the roar. She looked across the room at the source of the roar. Alizabe started shaking as she gazed at the dragon. The beast was a blackish color, but it wasn't pitch black. Its four legs were horribly deformed, with the elbow/knee joint being above, making the arm go up from its body and then bending back down.

Alizabe started to panic as the dragon looked her in the eyes, it's tail waved over its head as it took a step towards her, making her shiver with how it moved. She was frozen in fear.


Alizabe: "What... are you?"

The dragon took another step towards her, its twisted legs shaking the room with every step. Alizabe still couldn't find the courage to move. The dragon slowly crossed the room, each step sending chills down Alizabe's spine, but she couldn't move an inch. Alizabe saw a blur of a small creature and it took a second, but she recognized it. Dracoon had flown in front of her and right at the dragon. The dragoon took a swing at Dracoon with one of it's legs and Dracoon skillfully moved out of the way. The dragon's arm crashed through the floor and the dragon fell into the water.

Dracoon: "Run. Now!"

Alizabe nodded and took off running the way she came.

When Alizabe had tripped on the stairs, Sukasa had almost laughed, until Alizabe had run past him, looking to him to be about ready to cry. Was that MY fault? Wondered Sukasa to himself, as he heard the officer below yelling again at the kids. However, when Sukasa heard the dragon roar, and realized that Alizabe (though he STILL didn't know he proper name, just the first bit...) likely Hadn't hit the wall this time, Sukasa turned, and ran down the stairs to find her. A fault perhaps, but then again, Sukasa really didn't need someone dying when he could have prevented it... Not again.

Alizabe kept running, feeling her breath shorten, she knew Dracoon was right behind her and the thought comforted her. She could hear and feel the dragon running behind them, its twisted form gaining on them, Alizabe shivered at the thought of how it would run.

Dracoon: "Alizabe stop!"

Alizabe stopped on a dime and turned to look at Dracoon, pale from fear.

Dracoon: "I want you to hide, you'll experience some pain, but whatever you do, do not look."

Alizabe: "What are you going to do...?"

Dracoon: "I don't have time to explain, just hide."

Alizabe nodded and turned a corner and hid just on the other side. She felt a weird sensation as her entire body felt weakened. She practically fell over as she awkwardly sat down, trying to stay awake. She heard something that sounded like a roar and heard a few loud crashes and a shrill roar. Alizabe felt her body burning up and felt sick as the feeling continued. She felt horribly weak and leaned her head to the side in case she threw up. The rumbling stopped and Dracoon came around the corner but didn't say anything. He rested on Alizabe's shoulder, apparently tired himself.

Dracoon: "We're safe here for a while... Hopefully someone will come, you won't be able to walk for a while... Sorry it had to come to this."

The roaring continued, as Sukasa barrelled down the passageways towards where he thought it to be coming from. he'd blown past the guard and the others so quickly that he had not even had time to ergister they were there, aciddentally knocking at least two of them into the wall... Which now made three. Sukasa made a note to apologize when he got back. Why now, of all places?! asked Sukasa inwardly. First off I basically make that girl feel awkward, now it's probably my fault she's in this mess, AND I still haven't had anythign to eat for god-knows-how-many hours! Jesus... rounding one last corner, Sukasa almost literally ran over alizabe, his eyes widening. Trying to dodge Alizabe, Sukasa missed her, but spun and flew backwards into the wall on the other side of that passge, but luckily not too hard. That makes four now... thought Sukasa. At least she's all right... Panting, Suaksa looked At Alizabe, realizing her condition. Aw, fuck! the way she looks, I don't think I was the first thingto say hello to her. Shaking off the impact form the wall, Sukasa crouched down near Alizabe.

"Shit.... Are you all right?"

Dracoon: "She isn't going to be able to answer you."

Alizabe didn't know why Dracoon was talking to Sukasa, she wasn't even fully aware if she was actually hearing him or not. She just knew that she couldn't even gather up the strength to answer him.

Dracoon: "I had to do something daring, and I'm doing another one now by talking to someone who isn't my master, and she was drained of all her energy except one spark."

Dracoon sighed, knowing that Alizabe was probably going crazy being unable to move.

Dracoon: "So pretty boy, she's out of mortal danger thanks to me, but she isn't going to last long down here if she can't move. If you don't mind lending a hand, I'm sure she'll thank you when she's able to."

Alizabe felt like she was going to die, maybe being eaten by the dragon would've been better. As if Dracoon was reading her mind, Dracoon glared at her.

Dracoon: "We have pleanty of food because of this glutton here. It isn't very spacious though, but if you need a place to rest, and forge weapons, it'll be all right... And I can't take care of her while she's this weak."

"I think I can help with that. Luminara, mind making room for our friend here? No, not the girl you goof, I meant her summon. Sorry, but I don't know your name. Anyways..." Bending down, and while Luminara made room for Dracoon, Sukasa put his right hand on Alizabe's shoulderblades, and slid his left hand through the crook of her knee joints, lifted Alizabe up, and began to carry her towards where he'd come from. "I do hope you don't mind, but this is really the only way I could do this. anyways," Sukasa asked, his attention turning to Dracoon, "Actually, I have an apartment not far from here, and I don't know where you're staying anyways, and that's where most of the supplies I've collected are, to boot. I think she would be better off If I just went there, the person across the hall also actually knows some good first aid as a bonus. Can I ask your name, by chance?" Grunting, because he wasn't really all that strong, Sukasa continued on, and was near where the others were.

"Hey!" he yelled. "Can I ask you guys to make sure the next couple of levels up are mostly safe? I'm a little... predisposed right now, Not that that's a problem... Mom..."

The officer was just about flailing his arms right now.

Officer: Ooooooh! No one's supposed to go down! I need to get the Craftlords!! You kids, don't you dare go down there!!

And with that, the official headed towards the staircase leading back up into fresh air.

Lily: .. H-Hey.. um.. Do you think we should, like, do something? I mean.. they haven't come back up yet...

Pommy: Kupo!

Lily: Well.. I.. guess we should take a look.. I mean.. Maybe they just found some t-treasure. Yeah, that's right. They found some treasure.. and lots of great materials.

------------------

Arminas: Shouldn't there be some creatures wanting to attack me?

Spekkio: Yep. See all this goo all over the place? All that used to be slime creatures. Damn, I would've loved to have been part of that massacre. Oh, well looky here. There seems to be a slime over there. Why don't you try your luck with it?

Arminas: Eh? Why should I? It's just one thing, and it's totally out of my way.

Spekkio: You'll never get stronger if you don't fight.

Arminas: Fighting a green slimey creature? I really doubt that's going to make a man out of me. And I doubt that thing is going to have Iron Ore on it.

Spekkio: Bah! Whatever. Go.. look at the ocean life while you're at it.

Arminas: ... eh?

Dracoon: "I'm Dracoon, and this would be my master who is actually my pupil, Alizabe."

Every fiber of Alizabe's being was red with either embarassment or hatred. Luckily for her, she was to pale to show either embarassment or anger.

Dracoon: "First aid isn't really going to help, if it was as simple as healing I could take care of it."

Dracoon flew along side Sukasa, ignoring the shoulder spot.

Dracoon: "She just needs a bit of time to recover, probably about a day till she can start talking, maybe a day more before she can start moving a bit, on the third day she should be able to take care of herself."

Alizabe's thoughts: "Three days!? I hope the tournament doesn't start, having to drop out would be horrible!"

Dracoon: "You shouldn't worry Alizabe, you'll do fine in the tournament, I got something a little special off that dragon that'll help you quite a bit. Besides, with me around you can't lose!"

??? : And no competition for either.

Max's eyes glistened.

??? : ...wait wait wait wait, you're not actually gonna go in there? That dragon thing's just one of many things waiting to rip us into itty bitty pieces...

Max : I was expecting a little more optimism, 'Pedro'.

Pedro : No no NO! You're listening to her??

Max : Pedro. Not now. We might have to get our hands dirty if other novice Knights are endangered by this, but otherwise while all this red tape plays out we could zoom straight ahead of them as far as Labyrinth progress is concerned. Get me?

Pedro : Well yes, but-

Max : Back to the stairs!

As Dracoon chose not to take the shoulder spot on Sukasa, Luminara climbed back to sitting around his neck, as usual. "Well, I'd consider that a big plus, if first aid isn't needed," Said Sukasa, "The apartment I rented has a spare bedroom, and I'm going to assume that just like Luminara can tell what I'm thinking at times, you can tell what Alizabe is thinking, when you want to. If so, I could offer that bedroom to you, so if you need help there would be someone there, because it's not like I'll need to be going back down into the labrynth now, I've got all of what I need from it."

Dracoon: "Well if you're so nice to offer, I can't really refuse."

Dracoon just ignored Sukasa's comment about the tournament, Alizabe dreaded the comment, knowing that Sukasa had a very good point. Alizabe had almost died, how was she going to compete against people who had more time to work on their weapons?

OOC: Heh, ambiguous comment

"Okay then. It'll be a little longer getting out, because there's no way I'll be able to get through that one water room... not that that'll be a problem, I onlyt found out about it AFTER getting to this side of it." Walking up the stairs, Sukasa made a left turn, and instead of trying to cross the water, ducked through a more-than-slightly concealed passage, slowly making his way through the labrynth. After about fourty-five minutes of stairs, passages, and a couple of side room, Sukasa managed to carry Alizabe through to the entrance of the labrynth. Forced to hold his breath because of the angle he had to hold Alizabe at to get up the final flight of stairs, Sukasa brought Alizabe out of the labrynth.

"Well, we're out of that at least. My apartment's only a couple of blocks away from here, so it won't be long at all."

Alizabe: "T-Thanks..."

Alizabe managed to get the words out with a great deal of effort, her body trying to refuse her even the basic function of talking.

Dracoon: "Don't try and speak, you're way to drained. I'm surprised you're still awake honestly!"

Dracoon looked at Sukasa.

Dracoon: "I'm not happy asking this, but on the first day I'm going to need you to take care of her... I used up quite a bit of energy myself and need to drop into the summon's world for a little while. Just for a few hours hopefully."

"I... I can do that for you. Alizabe, just hang tough, we'll be there in a sec." Walking through the lobby of the apartment he was staying at, Sukasa took the stairs to the second floor."Hey, Luminara? Can I ask you to open the door for me? I can't really do that right now."

"Sure." Jumping off Sukasa's head, Luminara practically landed on the doorknob, before sliding off it and grabbing it with her hands. Twisting it, Luminara managed to open the door with a fair amount of effort. "There ya go!" She said, running inside.

"You would think she could open the door all the way... " Turning his back to the door, Sukasa edged it open whilst making sure not to bonk Alizabe with the doorframe. Inside, Sukasa didn't bother to take off his shoes, but carried Alizabe into his apartment, and set her down on the couch. Grabbing a blanket, Sukasa draped it over Alizabe. Turning to Dracoon before he left, Sukasa got his attention. "Hey, I don't want to force Alizabe to try to talk or anything, could you tell me anything she needs right away before you go to the summon world?" He asked, as he took off his shoes and tossed them into the closet.

Dracoon: "Just the obvious things, get her some water and a wash cloth soaked in warm water. She should fall asleep soon, when she wakes up she should at least be able to talk."

Alizabe was already starting to fall asleep after being laid on the couch, this was paradise compared to fearing that Sukasa was going to drop her. Dracoon floated right in front of her face and she gave a weak smile as he disappeared in a puff of white smoke.

In the summon's world, Dracoon had reverted to his normal shape. That of a large dracoon with rather long fur. A gash in Dracoon's side slowly bled as Dracoon laid on the ground and rested.


Dracoon: (That dragon was close to rank 80, the labrynth has much stronger enemies deeper down... I was careless, thinking it'd only be a lesser dragon... Hopefully the dragon claw will prove useful to Alizabe, if she can master it.)

The obvious things... Yeah, sure. God, can I ever be dumb... I don't even know what I'd use a warm washcloth for anyways... Thank goodness for Viktor, I can probably ask him since I've only had to ever use a cold one... Water shouldn't be too hard, though. Walking into the kitchen that was basically right behind the couch, plus enough room to get by, Sukasa grabbed a small glass and filled it with cold water. I can always get her more, and a small one would likely be easier for her to handle. Filling the glass, Sukasa quietly put it down on the coffe table that was by Alizabe, and told Luminara to be quiet for once in her lifetime. Quietly padding over to Alizabe, Sukasa spoke to her softly.

"Hey... I just need to ask a friend of mine for some advice, okay? I'll be back in just a couple minutes." Yeah, I could ask Viktor. I dunno, I think it would make more sense to me to use a cool washcloth, she looks more like she's just hot, rather than in pain... Quietly padding out of the apartment, Sukasa briskly walked down the hall after closing his apartment door. Knocking patiently on Viktor's door, Sukasa only had to wait a few moments for him to open the door.

"Sukaza! Zo good to zee you agin!" Viktor's English skills may have been off, but he was still a kind man, with a sort of 'puffy russian' look aobut him, 'cept without the communistic attitude, instead more like that proverbial kind grandpa next door who only lives to spoil the kids.

"Hello Viktor, how are you? Can I come in? I just need to ask you something."

"Good, good. Yeah, come opn in. Vat is it?" Asked Viktor as he closed the door.

"Well, I'm just trying to help someone out, they got real exhausted in the pit, so I'm just giving them a place to rest for now. Their summon had to leave for a bit, but, it said to use a warm washcloth, but I thought it was a cool one I should use instead, 'cuz she's not really hurt or anythign as far as I can tell..."

"Ah, I can help you with that. Let me just find one little book." Said Viktor, as he began to look through a small library of large-sized books. Not a small one in the lot. "So, a girl eh?"

"You know me, I wouldn't care who it was."

"Ah, that's true. Ah, here we are."

Vlad just finished his katana as the Official knocks at his door.

Official: "I have a letter here for a mister Vladimir Alantai "

Vlad: "That is me"

Official: "I think it tells you who tour opponent is in the turniment"

Vlad: "Hhm, good... well thank you"

Well off to see what this dragon rumor is about

About twenty minutes later he gets to where the dragon is.

Holy shit this dragon has gone through many battles but she is verry beautiful even though she si verry scarred. I think it is best if I stay in the shadows.

OOC: IIRC, She's dead too

"Okay, thanks Viktor!" Sukasa waved to his friend and started back along the hallway, stopping and letting himself in. Coming into the living room, he found Luminara silently (well, as silently as possible) playing with a ball of yarn, having unwrapped it a good deal already. Padding over to Alizabe, Sukasa rested the back of his hand against Alizabe's forehead. It felt hot, moreso than felt right for Sukasa. Takign his apartment's hallway (not the corridor outside), Sukasa grabbed a fresh washcloth and soaked it through with cold water, before wringing out as best he could, which was actually quite well. Coming back to Alizabe, Sukasa gently draped it across her forehead, being very careful not to awaken her. That job finished, Sukasa pulled up a notebook from a shelf in his bedroom, and grabbed a pencil. Pulling a chair out form the kitchen, Sukasa began drawing in the notebook, sometimes bits of the labyrnth's layout he could remember, sometimes scribbles, but mostly to pass the time. After a while though, his hunger (he still hadn't eaten) got the better of him and he went into the kitchen to grab a pop and some beef jerky, because he didn't want to wake Alizabe up by using the stove or microwave. Siting back down across from Alizabe, Sukasa ripped open the Jerky -it was still very fresh and soft- And took a bite. After finishing the Jerky... mostly, as Luminara had snuck some from him knowing he couldn't do anythign about it withotu risking waking up Alizabe. Sukasa kept watching Alizabe for a bit, However having woken up a four A.M., and having lugged Alizabe all the way here, Sukasa nodded off to sleep.

OOC: Extremely dead. I mean like, ripped to shreds if you saw the carnage you'd be haunted by nightmares for the rest of your life... or something.

Alizabe struggled as she reached for the cup and drank the cold water, just managing to put the cup back before practically falling unconcious.


Dracoon could feel his master/pupil dropping off into sleep from his own resting place. He had taken the time to make sure there was still a link between them, knowing that if something went wrong he could always uh... breath nasty flames at whoever was doing it?

Well, sukasa was out cold. Not Luminara. She saw Alizabe almost drop the glass, and came over to push Alizabe back onto the couch, so she woudln't fall off. Lookign over at Sukasa, Luminara decided to just let him sleep. Climbing and leaping her way to the top of the kitchen counter, Luminara refilled Alizabe's glass, and brought it back in case she woke up again. Now he'll have to admit I can do something Thought Luminara, although she and Sukasa both knew that she coudl do stuff, just that it was their way of getting on each other's nerves for fun.
