| Ark coughed and blood spilled onto the ground. His senses sharpened wildly. He could hear and see things that were far away. He could feel everything around him, he felt like he had the energy of a god, but was forced to watch and wait instead of act.
Lily: "...C'mon! I need a Ressurection spell!" Ark heard it, the desperation in it, everything. Lily: "I'm sorry.. I couldn't..." Ark heard the sadness, he could feel it travel through his body. "Don't you want to die? To have everything end?" "...No..." "I thought you wanted to sleep forever. To end all your lives, do you wish for something different now? I thought you wanted to stop serving and just rest." "...No... not right now..." "What if you were helpless, what if it is your time to die?" "I don't want to die... Not yet... I can't die right now... Lily would be sad... She would suffer the hardships that face this world... I don't want normal people to face that hardship alone..." Ark knew this feeling, he'd once died before, it was just like this... but he didn't want to die... just like that last time, he refused to die... He air enter his lungs and the earth under him. His arm tensed and he leaned on it. "Sigmund... you're a bastard... you could've called for help and made this easier..." Ark rolled over on his back and looked into the sky. His wounds were rapidly healing now. He would be fine in a few minutes. |

| Sigmund: "I coulda, yeh're right."
He leaned in close to Ark. The glint in his eyes opened a little wider, revealing a pair of dark brown cornea. As he whispered, his accent was noticeably gone... "But if I hadn't, would you really feel like life was worth living after seeing the brink and having someone else help you get away from it...?" (edited by Grey on 03-10-06 01:31 AM) |

| Lily: Drenchy! You made it!
Lily, forgetting the possibility that touching him would probably painful, basically glomped onto Ark. ----------------------------- Lucas: We heard certain things about you, Arminas... Arminas rubbed his face. Lucas: Oh yeah, like what? Lucas: Where's Allison? Arminas: *looks off to the side* Clara: ... How did you survive the fall? Arminas: How do you know about that? Clara: Just answer the question. Arminas: *sighs* I don't know, ok? The little girl told me some... ball of golden light was surrounding my body when she found me laying around. Lucas ran his hands through his hair. Lucas: Alright.. Just... Both of you, go into my house and wait inside. I have to check on something. Clara: Alright. Come on, Selk. Clara grabbed Arminas's arm, and before he could get up, dragged him into the house. |

| Sigmund grinned.
Sigmund: "And then where would we be? You don't appreciate life... When you wake up one day and realize just how old you really are, you'll learn that you need the time you've got. Don't just throw it away like that again." Sigmund got up, and clapped Lily on the shoulder, his old man voice coming back into full swing. "See, there yeh go! Yeh went an' cured the poor bastard! Congrats, me lassie!" He turned and began hobbling away... His limp was much more noticeable, all of a sudden. "C'mon, we've got a pair of doofuses ta see. Lessgo!" |

| "Thank God... you don't have spikey armor on..."
Ark winced, but he didn't yell in pain or anything. "and just give me a minute old man... I'm not sure if I can even walk yet." (edited by Dracoon on 03-10-06 01:40 AM) |

| Lily released Ark and stood up.
Lily: Right.. We've got that other matter to take care of... Well, c'mon, Drenchy! Start feelin' better faster! We don't need all this gloomy feeling lurking about! -------------------- Just as Arminas and Clara stepped inside Lucas' house.. Arminas: You didn't have to hit me that hard... Clara: Shut up. There were two floors to the house, as well as a basement, made for holding people who were causing trouble. The second floor held two bedrooms, however, one seemed to have been locked indefinitely. Hanging over the stairs for the second floor was the skeleton of an ancient beast. Or perhaps a dragon. On the first floor had the living room and dining room combined into one, since a large table was placed infront of two large sofas. There was a kitchen located nearby, and a botanical room on the west wing. Arminas: Well.. I didn't expect to see Sky and Cassandra here... |

| Sigmund reached out a hand to Ark, and helped him up.
Sigmund: "C'mon, I've seen bigger cuts on a dolphin! Yeh'll just 'ave ta walk it off from here! Git a moveon!" Regardless of his heckling, Sigmund WAS helping Ark along... |

|
Sinfjotle Lordly? No, not quite. Since: 11-17-05 From: Kansas Last post: 6302 days Last view: 6300 days |

| "Probably because you've gutted a dolphin before."
Ark was on his feet, and wasn't looking like he was about to fall over. "If I can stand I can walk, and if I can walk, I can run... but where are we supposed to go?" Ark said as he rummaged through some of the clothes. He would never take his cloak off, it was a gift from a long time ago. Even if it was shredded, he would keep it. Some of the clothes didn't look so great though. Leather pants and a leather shirt, boxers, weird hats. Ark eventually just picked out a new light brownish shirt and took off his and put it on. His pants were that badly damaged, only the bottoms were frayed. "You have horrible taste in guys clothes." |

| Sigmund: "No, I've a treasure hunter's taste in gittin' what I need when I need it. Yeh'll be grateful I've got what ya need right now, ya will."
Just ahead... The Bantam Bouncers. Now all he needed to do was cover his ears for another one of their musical numbers... |

| Fortunately, the Bantam Bouncers were just practicing some new moves for their new song and dance routine.
Lily: Uh.. I don't see anyone that looks helpful around here.. ------------------- Arminas quietly sat down at the end of the sofa that Cassandra and Sky weren't sitting on. Clara: Well? Arminas: Well what? Clara: Is that all you have to say for yourself? Arminas rolled his eyes and looks at the kitchen. Clara sighed and looks at Sky and Cassandra. Clara: Selk and Allison had ran off, and they indeed ran into the army. There were three commanding officers, as well as the leader of the army situated on the island. Selk was disposed of while Allison was captured, and the only thing he has to say for it is just rolling his eyes. |

| "Yeah, but this old man has so many connections that if someone didn't have some idea of what was going on, I'd be surprised."
Ark laughed a little bit. The old man probably had connections with everyone on every side... |

| The man wearing all white clothing and a sleeveless shirt, which was also slightly opened to give his manly chest some air, turned around and saw Sigmund.
Curtis: Hey! What's shakin', brother? Lily winced at the powerfully enthusiastic tone of voice the man had. Lily: He's one of the people that knows stuff? 
----------------------------- Lucas stepped inside the house, slightly panting. He was actually eager about something, but he tried to keep the tone of his down. Lucas: Alright... Arminas. The man you saw that was supposedly the leader... Arminas: Gregorioius. Lucas: You're certain you encountered Gregorious? Arminas: Absolutely. His soldiers called him by name. Lucas: So, Gregorious was behind the attack on the bandits' lair.. *sighs* I should have realized it when I saw all those red soldiers. Arminas: Many of those soldiers are a part of special force that carries out secret operations. I'm not surprised you didn't recognize them. Lucas: *quirks a brow* I'm surprised you did... Arminas: ... |

Ark sighed. "Do you know anything about an army that wears red as their prime color?" |

| Sigmund: "Yeh're overestimatin' 'im. An' keep yer voice down, shortsleeves! I'll handle this..."
He poked Curtis in the shirt, taking care not to wrinkle it in the process (if there was one thing the Bantam Bouncers hated, it was getting their impeccable sense of fashion messed up. THAT was worth an asskicking to them.). Standing on his tiptoes, Sigmund barely reached the buff man's chest, but he seemed all the more imposing because of it. "Yeh, I do, 'samatterofact! Yeh seen anyone from the ribs 'round here lately? You know who I'm talkin' 'bout. The la-li-lu-le-lo won't be wantin' yeh ta be revealin' none o' their secrets, so keep it on the cant, 'kay? I'm wonderin' where the robins're flyin', takin' the springtime off, 'hear, cause there's a hot deal goin' with a few Shines flowin' and we're thinkin' 'bout rockin' the boat a bit. S'long as the sun shines, we're makin' the greats and the shortie wants 'er wick..." While passerby looked on, completely alienated, Sigmund waited for a response...

| Lily: ... What.. the HELL was that?
Curtis: I see... Afaik, and such, their springtime hasn't been here yet. Glaring Spectacles might help motivate more than the Power of Love Personified by Coolness. Isn't that right, Isabella? The woman wearing the enormous white hat turned around. Isabella: Yes, Curtis. Curtis: But if them sun shines aren't around, the old crow and chicks may miss out, you dig? Lily: ... Ahum... Drenchy.. maybe we should try on our own.. ------------------ Lucas steps infront of the table. He looks at Sky and Clara and clears his throat. Clara figures she might be in for a long haul, so she decided to sit down on a sofa, opposite of Arminas'. Lucas: Gregorious Lafley. Third prince of the Cruinidad (Cru-in-id-ad) Empire, a militaristic country in the southern part of the mainland. Over the past few years, Cruinidad has been steadily increasing its power by going to war with other nations. It seems Gregorious has been leading an independent division of troops from battlefield to battlefield across the land. Clara: ... Gregorious's confidants are his four executive officers, otherwise known as the Terrors. Lucas: Right. Danielle the Violet Fire specializes in fire omes, just as her name implies. Phaere the Shadow is famous for her deceptive illusions in battle. Stingle the Vicious is a master of the sword. People say that he wears a mask at all times. I haven't heard any intel on the fourth member, who Sky has previously incapacitated. |

| "Yeah... I have no clue what the hell either of them just said..."
Ark turned away and started walking, but stopped. He breathed in deeply and yelled... "but it sure sounds like bribery and dirty information!" |

| Lily: ... Seeing as how it's Gramps.. I wouldn't doubt it...
----------------------------- Lucas: While Danielle and Phaere are veterans, I've heard that Stingle is a relative newcomer. Perhaps he has some reason for choosing to hide his identity. Clara immediately stood up, almost rattling the house as she stomped her foot on the ground. Clara: Damn you, Gregorious! What are you scheming? Why did you abandon the front line and come to Neo Grape Gardens?! Arminas: What's eating you, Clara? Lucas: You can hardly blame her. The Holy Kingdom of Fum, her homeland, is at war with Cruinidad at this very moment. Clara: How did you know I'm from the Fum? I never told you that. Lucas: The Claveers are a famous family of knights in the Fields of Fum. I've atleast heard of them. |

| Sigmund: "Lucas? That old Marshall wannabe... I see. Thanks. Keep yer eyes posted."
He whacked Ark upside the head as he turned around and headed to Lucas' house... "C'mon, we're goin' to tha commercial district. Don't buy anything, don't touch anything, don't listen to anyone, don't make eye contact. Lucas' house is on the other side, and we're in a hurry." He turned a grim stare on Lily... "An' that means no shiny things, either." |

Lily: Aww, c'mon! That's a bit harsh, don't you think, Gramps? 
-------------------- Clara's face seems to have turned melancholy for a moment. Clara: I see... So the Claveer name is known far and wide... Clara looks up and looks at Lucas. Clara: Yukin! We can't just sit here while Gregorious runs free on Neo Grape Gardens! Lucas: Yes. We cannot let this go on... Even if it means taking on an entire country's army. Clara: First, we need information. More information than the basic intel we have already. We have to discover Gregorious' whereabouts and motives. Lucas: Yes, which is why I've contacted Cedric the Unseen. Clara: Cedric? The Cedric? He's famous for having more information than anyone on the island! And then some! |
