Andrew truned and saw that some light was able to come down from the dark sky. Soon scar used fire on him, which did not end up doing much. He stood there a moment it burned a little but he could tell it was not as powerful as it could have been. The battle seemed to be going somewhat well. That was when Ananta landed on his head which he did not like. It would have been better if she asked first. She then asked, 'Hey, Aj, do you know any magic? Know anything that this Scar guy could be weak to?' He was not sure why she came to him. Did he know any magic? Did she not see the wave of water shoot towards scar moments ago? In a sense magic just seemed to work whenever he thought about it and came out of the keyblade. "For scar the most likely thing is light magic. See how he is glowing with a dark energy that is his weakness? The next best think would be water and lighting as he is wet now but was on fire. if you have none of those then the best thing is defense and healing."

He raced off and looked towards the sky. It was time for a thunderstorm. He stood there for a moment. He then pointed his keyblade to the sky and watched as lighting come down and hit Scar square in the body.

Andrew turned when Aislinn said, 'Unfortunately for some people. I hope you enjoyed the show at least, it was a pain to put on, but it looks like the king is finally ready to take his place, so I guess it was worth it.' "Unfortunately you can't make everyone happy all of the time." He did not know why Aux had to have a issue with Aislinn. in fact he was getting tired of Aux but that was for another time as, hyenas and lions fought amidst the chaos while Simba and his uncle continued to battle. Exchanging blow after blow, Simba was eventually pinned down again. Simba, catapulted Scar off the ledge with his hind legs before Scar tried to jump on him again. Soon Scar rose from his supposed demise, smiling. The fight was not over yet. Darkness radiated from Scar. Darkness took over scar. Aux then said something about fighting alone. He did not think that Aux got the whole concept but there was nothing he could do at the moment.

Soon Aux left leaving only scar there. It looked like the road to master was almost over. Then Kaida summoned out her keyblade and it begin to rain. It was not a bad idea. No seeing a choice in the manner it was time to summon his keyblade. He summoned his keyblade and look right at Scar. We need water and a lot more then rain he thought. As he thought this a wave of water came out of his keyblade and went towards Scar.

Kyo soon lead them to an inn where they dropped off their things in their rooms. He was not sure about Thea staying by herself but for the time being he said nothing. Thea then said, 'Well I can always get a bag of... um... rice! Yeah rice. I will get rice and then I will cut a small hole in the bag and then even if that stupid magic works to some extent, but I don't think it will, then you can follow the trail of rice.' "Maybe, I have some other thoughts as well." He did not say them as anyone could be giving the information back to the Mage. When Thea said she did not mind his suggestion he just smiled at her.

Soon Kyo lead then to town hall. They approached the large iron gates to the Town Hall, guarded by at least four guards. Two in the front, and two behind the gates. Then Kyo said, 'We're here under Divine Rose's request to see the children, via permission from the mayor.' Then they were let into the front door of the town hall courtyard. Kyo then said, 'They're preparing for supper around this time, but feel free to interview them as you will.' He did not think they would get to go, but they were here now so it was best to make the most of it. A old women showed up and was not to happy to see them. "We are here to stop what is going on", he said simply. Thea then asked, 'So what are we going to ask the kids.' "We find out there version of the story, even if we get little we can cross reference it to what we have been told so far." Some of the things just did not add up. "I say we get the information and leave. Necos likely knows that we are here by now, who we are, and where we are, or where we are going to be. It is likely he is working with someone in town. No mage like that works alone." He was sure of this. He then looked into the Town Hall where the children would have dinner soon.

The mayor started with, 'The curse of the sound of the flute seems to affect all above the age of twelve years old. At least a drowsiness of sorts comes over them.' That did not mean that magic could not help in there efforts. He already knew about the children being hypnotized which is why expressed concern for Thea. If she was hypnotized then she could not tell them where she was. There was one thing that he was not sure of and if it worked well that was good and if not then that was bad. "Does the flute effect more then one thing at once?" Soon a young man came into the room who's name was Kyo. The mayor saying that he would show them were they were staying. That was when Thea said, 'But even if I am under the trance for a bit, surely they won't expect a great and powerful wizard that has come to save the town to be so young. They will be caught completely off guard. Maybe I can even get the flute from them before I signal for help.' "You have to remember that Necos likely has some kind of magic or at least the flute does." He did not see trying to convince Thea other wise was going to work so he said nothing. "I do not see the harm in taking to the children within the city hall." Even if that only got a little information it was better then nothing.

Zephyr more or less agreed with Thea in saying that they should go with her plan. Zephyr then said, 'This Necos guy could have another trick up his sleeve other than a magic flute and if he does, three great and powerful wizards beats one.' "I don't know about being powerful." He never really thought of himself as all that powerful but, he had to have some power for people to be afraid of him when he was younger. He never used so much of his magic to know how powerful he was to begin with. Magic was a powerful weapon and it had to be used carefully. "Well if we are going with this plan at least let me use some of my magic on you before hand." Even if his magic minimized the effects by 1% it was better then nothing.

Right before they went off Ananta said, 'Do I need to be bait when there's two bigger meals running off?' They were not running off it was all apart of the plan that Ananta was clearly not paying attention to. Soon the detraction went off and it was kind of funny to watch the dancing and singing but was another thing when they had to run off. With all the Hyena's distracted by the other half of the group he and the others slowly edge their way into pride rock. As they came onto pride rock he could see lionesses in misery. They reached the lion's den and he could finally see scar. First scar mistakened Simba for Mufasa then Simba went on about being the rightful king. Scar was now manipulating Simba in some way. Then there was a reveal that scar said simba was responsible for Mufasa's death. He did not believe it for a second but apparently some did. He did not understand why they believed Scar's lies after so long of him lieing.

Shorty after all of this it was revealed that Scar was the one who killed Mufasa. He was not the bit surprised. No what he wondered. He stepped proudly forward as to say he was there to help Simba. There was no way Scar was going to give up so easy. He looked around and saw that Kaida, Aislinn and Ananta had joined them. "I am glad that you are safe." He did not think that it was over but only the beginning.

Andrew turned to see what was going on. Most of what was going on was Hikaru telling Kaida to be careful. He was just waiting for the detraction. He did not understand why Aux had to be negative all the time. He knew that most of them would be fine as they could take care of themselves. As he waited for the detraction he looked out to see what he could see. He was trying form a plan of attack and what way he should go to attack. As far as he could think of the best option was to sneak as close as possible to scar and deal with what was to come. Before the hula he looked back to the others and gave them a good luck look before looking back to what way was the best way to sneak off in.

Joining, going to be interesting :)

Gavin just looked at the mayor. The mayor then said, 'The job was self-explanatory, or so I presumed.' Well no kidding. There was more to it then simple act of revenge. Necos wanted more, people always wanted more then just revenge. He just was not sure what else this Necos wanted. That was when the mayor said, 'It was foolish of me to trust a rogue mage like him... And now our town is paying the ultimate price.' "You did what you thought was the best option at the time. No one can tell the future and if they can it is not always right." 'I suppose there would be no harm in speaking to the children, but I do not see the point in it.' He already explained why talking to the children would be helpful. They knew what was going on more so then the adults so they might be able to get information. Then something about the time it happens came up. It did not seem like they could know when Necos was coming for sure. 'There is a strange fog that rolls into town, the flute sounds to be in one area and then suddenly in another.' "sounds like some sort of weather magic is being used." He could not be sure tho.

One of the first things they had to find out was where the missing children were at. That was when Thea said, 'So basically we need to wait until night and then I can go see if I can find where the guy is. I mean I am not an adult so I won't fall asleep right? When I find him I can send up a small flame so Zephyr and Gavin would know where to find me.' It was not a good idea but it was also not a bad one. It was better then using a random child but that did not mean he had to like it. "What happens when you fall under the spell of the enchanted flute and cant control your self?" That was when Zephyr said, 'One of us should go with you then. The guards are likely older than all of us so Gavin or I might not be affected by it.' He was not all that worried about the flute. "The flute uses sound and travels through the air to take control of a children or makes people fall asleep. So in theory I might be able to use my magic and stop the flute magic reaching us." He had no clue if it would at all Then there was the fact that he did not like using his magic unless he had to. There was another option but he rather not do it.

Maliel seemed to notice that they were not following her. She then said, 'We don't want to risk it.' He was not sure what it was but something did not seem right. Maliel then went on about already loosing at least ten children. He got the feeling that Maliel was not telling them everything. The girl was acting odd. She then said, 'We always had this wall around the town hall... We're out far away from any help close by, so this was built in the beginning of our establishment to keep everyone safe... None of the children in there have magic.' It seemed odd to always have a wall to protest them, from what? He wondered. He decided not to go into it more. Soon they had to follow Maliel once more.

Maliel led the group along through the village. Finally, they arrived to a manion surrounded by an iron gate with ravens sitting around and cawing. It was a bit ominous. Once inside it seemed warmer but he was not going to let his guard down. In there was a room for was a roaring firing, and someone sitting in a chair with their hands interlaced. The Mayor then said, 'I have been patiently waiting for you. I'm sure Maliel has updated you on what's happening with our children and what has plagued us of late?' Yes and no he somewhat figured out what was going on before he left the guild hall. He decided to be real with the mayor. "We will do what we can but I am not sure how helpful we will be. We do not know why this flute player is taking children. He must have a motive." If the children had magic it would make a bit more sense but according to Makiel they did not. "We do not even know where to start." That was when a idea came to his head it was possible but it was a chance. "How would you feel about us talking to the children? They might have clues as to what is happening and where the children might be." As far as he could think of it was the best place to start.

Maliel came up to them and said, 'That's the town hall. It's been converted into a school of sorts, yes. But mostly to keep the children safe from the flute player.' Something did not make sence, at most it was round a month or so, that the flute player has been taking children. This was not nearly long enough to build a high stone wall about thirty feet high that blocked the view of the courtyard. That said it was possible. "So typically stone walls are not built around a town hall courtyard, so how was this done so quickly?" He was more curious more then anything else. Maliel continued, 'he chooses his targets randomly, and so we placed them all in a well guarded area to keep track of everyone. It seems like the enchantment he uses only hypnotizes children twelve years old and under. So far we haven't had any losses the last two weeks, but we still hear the flute at night.' "Well it seems he uses the enchanted flute with the power of music and or sound to take control of the children and move them somewhere else." He just had not figured out why yet. That was when a idea came into his head. "Do any of the children have magic?"

That was when Thea and Zephyr had the idea of the children coming out in the day. When the age range came into play, he knew bringing Thea was not a good idea. Having all the children in one place made some sense but it just made this place a target. "Out in the day or at night it does not matter both ways they are a target for the flute player. What is important is that the children are safe."

As they walked Thea said as they got to the building that, 'Maybe they are in school. Peasants do that don't they?' He was not so sure but would wait for what Maliel would say. "Does not look like any school I have been to." Well that was not completely true. " There was one simular but for the most part they want them to look as normal as possible. I have herd of schools, where children with magic go to that are like this. I just thought that they did not use them anymore seeing as magic is more accepted." The thought of people putting children with magic here made him upset. It brought him to a time when he was younger. He closed his eyes for a moment.

Spoiler: past

Gavin opened his eyes. It was shortly after his 3rd birthday. he was being dragged by two people he had no control over what was happening. "Stop, let me go." There was a slight fear in the eyes of the people practically carrying him away. He had just used his magic and had thrown a large book at a wall because an other child had been hitting him with it. "stop I did not mean it." He was practically crying at this point. The men just looked at him. 'You know what you did and we know what to do with you.' In the distance a large building could be seen it looked like a prison. A few days later he managed to escape the place. Then he stared new schooling somewhere new. He had to keep moving from place to place school to school. Then shortly after his escape He was put away again in a school at the age of three because he had the natural ability to control (magic) some feared him and made fun of him. He closed his eyes.

He opened his eyes again and found himself back where he was. If anyone looked at his they might be able to tell he was upset. Zephyr had said something about it not being strange. He had so happened to open his eyes as Zephyr said, 'Seems that way and Quite the well guarded school if that's the case.' He did not like the idea of it at all. Looks can be a lie.

Andrew just stood there and then Aislinn said, 'I know what it is like to lose parents... but doesn't that mean you should hold on to the family you have more?' He was surprised that Aislinn knew what it was like to lose a parent but said nothing on it. That was when Aislinn said, 'So are you ready to stick your nose where it doesn't belong and help these people? Even AJ and I, and we are the newer ones here. I am sure nothing could go wrong.' He did not like that Aislinn was speaking for him. He liked to speak for himself. That was when Aux said, 'Enough, I get it! With the friendship, and the helping, and the STOP IT! Eventually someone will get a rock to the head...' "When we get back to the pridelands you can put a rock to Scar as many times as you like."

The group continued making their trek back in excellent time. He could see priderock in the distance. He already offered his help in fighting scar so did not feel the need to say so again. 'It's gonna be dangerous,' Simba warned. "That seems be be standard practice now for us." That when when there was talk of a plan. He had to say it was about time. 'Yeah, but we got power too! We've got 4 lions, an antelope, a wolf, a parrot, a charming and suave meerkat, a warthog, and some kinda mutant chicken.' He did not think Aux would help but hay he might be surprised. 'If we had some kind of distraction, we might be able to make it if we had some live bait.' He did not know if he liked the sound of that. 'What do you want us to do? Dress in drab and do the hula?!' "Yea why not it might be fun." He looked at Aislinn not knowing what to say. He just walked over to Simba and waited for the moment they would set off.

after sometime the followed Maliel. Thankfully she was out of ear shot. He turned to Zephyr and said, "don't you find it odd someone so young is working for the mayor?" They soon walked by a large building that had iron bars on the outside windows and a high stone wall about thirty feet blocking the view of the courtyard with decorative iron spikes. "Looks like they are trying to keep something in or someone out" he said offhandedly. That was when muffled sounds of laughter and the play of children he could hear. He then turned to Zephyr once again. "Is this where all the children are kept?"

That was when a red ball was suddenly thrown over the wall and rolled in front of the group. Not seeing the harm of sending it back over he did so. He picked up the ball and gave it a good toss the ball landing on the other side. "Try not to lose it this time." His voice was full of happiness. "So what is up with this building and why are there children here?" he asked Maliel.

Before he left he gathered some things, not knowing who long they would be gone. To say the trip was long was a understatement. He relaxed most of the ride and looked out the window. The group would have had to cross a large lake by ferry. As they ventured farther and farther away, the scenery was becoming dreary, humid, and creepy even. A thin fog settled over the drooping trees and made the path somewhat obscure before them. He knew he might be able to move the fog away but it did not seem worth it to use his magic so soon. The closer they go to town the more of a smell of food being cooked there was. Soon the carriage stopped, and the group was let out to see Murgate Village. They were in some sort of market place. It did not strike him as odd that there was no children going around he figured that out before they left the guild.

The group was clearly being observed carefully. He gave Zephyr a look that said be careful and don't give out to much information. They after all did not know who to trust and not to trust at this point. A young teen then came up to them and said her name. Then she said 'I've been asked to bring you to our mayor when you arrived.' He found it quite odd someone so young would be working for the Mayor if she did. "Do you work for the Mayor?" He glanced back at Zephyr to see if he could pick up on what zephyr was thinking.

Once he had come over to Thea, Thea said, 'Bringing me along? You would be tagging along.' He said nothing and let Thea have her innocents. That was when Thea said, 'I can take care of myself. I am not a child. Besides I have been practicing, watch!' Thea summoned a ribbon of fire to her hand and started weaving the red flames between her finger tips, before sending it up into a small firework like explosion. He did not doubt that Thea could take care of herself but he was sure a magic flute was not something to be messed with. "I don't doubt you can take care of your self Thea", he said with a smile. It was the magic of the flute and what powers it might have that he was more worried about. It was not like anyone noticed his concerns anyways so he would just have to deal with whatever happened when it happened.

As He watched Thea something came into his mind. Magic had the power to create and destroy it was how you used it that mattered, leaving his thoughts unsaid. That was when Zephyr said, 'Besides that, why we're going with her, is to make sure nothing happens.' It did not seem like he had a choice in the mater so he said nothing. He rather not use his magic but he would to help others. He just stood by watching Thea eat waiting for the moment until they left.
