It was odd seeing someone simply walk in and just talk to random people when they were barely welcomed in in the first place. Aislinn found herself hovering by the door with the boy that had let her in. The other boy that followed them seemed to be making himself at home, despite hardly offering a proper introduction. In Ashen Rose, no one would act like that. That being said it was only more proof that she was not back home, no where near actually. Nothing of this place looked or felt like something from her home. When she passed through the darkness, it wasn't just bringing her to another part of her world, but another world entirely. Turning her attention back to the boy, Aislinn smiled. "Kel. I like that, it is a unique name." She replied graciously. She then considered his next words, it wasn't really an answer, but perhaps that was because he didn't want to give an answer. It never hurt to double check however. "Are you willing to give me a short version then? My apologies if I pry, but this hardly seems like the type of place a bunch of people as young as yourselves, would be hanging out. It seems a little... well dangerous if you ask me." She wasn't trying to imply anything but just state her thoughts, which she believed to be a fair way of thinking. She didn't know much about these people or where they came from however, so perhaps to them it wasn't as strange as it was to her.
Friends. It was a stupid and unfamiliar notion. Whatever these people claimed, they never truly thought of her as a friend, or so Karina believed. She had made sure of that, pushing them away at every turn. Steel had only driven that point home when she met up with them. It wasn't out of friendship but out of pity that everyone offered her help. Karina could bet if she had emerged from her door standing tall with a new keyblade like everyone else, she would be the last person anyone approached, and frankly she couldn't blame them. She wouldn't even try to blame them. At least when Stratos spoke it sounded like he actually understood what she was saying to some extent. Perhaps out of everyone there, that was why Stratos was her favourite. While he wasn't over the top nice to her, somehow he managed to say what she needed to hear without it being a slap in the face, or trying to get creepily close to her. "I think I will have a long search ahead of me then. When you lost everything, you start thinking you don't need anything." Karina spoke out, not sure why she felt the need to say it, but it was sort of nice to get it off her chest. It wasn't by much but Karina had started feeling the slightest bit better, at least she was feeling well enough to get to her feet. The feeling of comfort faded quickly however when she heard another voice. Despite the concerned look on Luna's face, Karina couldn't help but draw away from her slightly, still remembering when she had first met Luna. They had barely been in the same area for an hour and Luna had tried to attack them, giving Karina a deep rooted mistrust of the girl, especially since that was one of the first experiences after fleeing her home world. Karina's eyes darted from Luna to Stratos, then back to Luna. She was unsure what to say at first. "I'm fine." She lied to Luna, avoiding bringing up what she had said to Stratos. She said that out of vulnerability, but she wasn't willing to let that side creep up with Luna, never with her, not when she couldn't predict the girl.
Several hours passed in which Dania was able to successfully set a course for them and finish several trade documents, one of which had to do with their next location. She managed to secure a trade agreement with a traders station not too far from where they currently were. Thankfully the trade agreement had not been too harsh. It was place set up so anyone could set up a shop and trade and numerous people came and went. This particular group didn't seem to care about race, just if it would make them money or not. While they didn't have much to spare on the Resilient, they had become efficient at scavenging and always had something to trade at least. Upon docking Dania took the lead, heading in first by herself to settle the final details of the agreement and to show good faith with her heading aboard alone at first. The discussions took a good hour before Dania returned to the ship to make an announcement. "Today we have started a new trade agreement with the trade station Galanor, as a sign of good faith and a solid agreement we will be stocking up with all supplies needed while here instead of our normal routine of visiting several to find the best price. Please feel free to head aboard and take a look at what they have, what you might need for your stations. Send me a list of what you need with prices so I can assign budget accordingly. Please have your lists sent to my personal computer by 15:00 and no later. I Admiral Carrillo thank you for your cooperation in this." The speakers throughout the Resilient rang with Dania's voice as she made the announcement. It ended with a small click and the ship fell silent before members started organizing themselves to head aboard. Instead of heading back onto the Galanor herself, Dania found herself heading towards the infirmary. She had promised to return after running off so quickly the day before. After being slightly injured in the unintentional battle the day before, Dania only stuck around long enough to get a bandage put around her arm in order to stop the bleeding. With the attack the ship was in more chaos than normal and had to make a hasty retreat. Dania was the one that had to set things back on course and figure out their next plan of action. Not wanting to leave her people to travel aimlessly for long, Dania got to work on setting a general direction before turning her attention to the work that she had set aside before that and figuring out trade agreements for them. It hadn't been so urgent until the attack. Not only did they need somewhere to go that was away from the planet they had previously parked on, but the planet had been allied with two of their previous trade partners, who promptly informed them that there was no trade deals between them anymore. With all that going on, Dania had not had time to worry about the wound on her arm. Now with it started being sorted and having a safe location to park for the afternoon, she had to uphold what she said before and return for a proper examination. The sound of knuckles against metal made more of a ringing sound than a solid knock, but she supposed it would still get Simon's attention. "Lieutenant Commander Cartwright, may I enter?" She asked from the door. While her rank gave her the right to show up anywhere unannounced, she still liked to be polite about it. She waited for permission to enter before she did so, taking it upon herself to remove the bandage that covered her wound before taking a seat. She wasn't fond of coming here, never really liked people taking care of her like this, but it was important to stay in good health, it was up to her to lead humanity into a new light and the fresh start they needed.
Spirit had taken Stien's spot in the classroom to debrief the students. After last time he tried to do a briefing, Stien thought it was best if they put him in a classroom he might be a little more serious. While Spirit found that notion completely demeaning, he didn't complain when he realized the nurse's office was across the hall and he could watch the nurse pace and work from the desk while waiting for the students to arrive. When they did eventually arrive, he put on his serious face that he saved for these types of things. "Blake and Kuro was it? Come have a seat. I am glad you found a partner Blake. Now then lets get to the matter at hand." Spirit tapped his stack of papers on the desk, trying to seem professional. "Your target is a lady by the name of Rosaline Blackthron. She is a world renown and dangerous weapon dealer. For all the talk about how good she is, it seemed that she has slipped up. A contact of ours has informed us that she will be attending a Masquerade ball in the heart of New York City tomorrow night to make one of her bigger trades to the local mafia there. Both Miss Blackthorn and the leader of the Mafia that she is trading with are on our list of Kishin's that need to be brought to an end. Your job is to attend the ball and take them both out without any civilian casualties and without anyone knowing what you are up to. This Masquerade is one of the biggest fundraisers in New York, do not compromise that. You are to take out the two Kishin souls without disturbing the party, do you understand? When you are ready to go, visit Lord Death and he will provide transport to New York where you will meet a limousine that will take you to the party. He will also provide appropriate outfits for the party. Stick together and if there is any problems, please call. You are dismissed." Spirit handed out profiles on Rosaline Blackthorn and then sent the two on their way so that he could return to what he was doing previously. @KHGrl15 @CrownMoksha You are now allowed to make your way towards New York and the ball. Take as much time as you want to get there. Once you are there I will continue with the mission.
Shush you. You don't know that. I am not Celeana
The attack of the Ravioli continues
Once I will overthrow Arch then I might consider moving unions
Aislinn had at first expected a response to her questions, instead however there was a voice behind her, and the boy she was talking to had called out to someone. Turning around Aislinn faced another young man standing there, asking her what part of Euterpe she was from. She looked at him with a quizzical look before finally speaking. "I don't know of this place that you speak of. I am not from there. My home is on Ashen Rose." She informed in in a calm factual voice. Turning back to the other young man she nodded gratefully at his invitation in. While normally she didn't just enter other peoples homes, not without knowing them. However given her other option, entering someone's house didn't seem to be such a bad idea. More so the way he spoke was not in a way of possession. While he hardly said enough for her to tell for a fact, but the uncertainty when he spoke of the place made it sound like he did not spend a lot of time there. "Thank you sir." Aislinn gave him a small bow. She didn't know his name, but it felt a little odd calling someone sir. Stepping past him, it was an odd sight indeed. She hardly noticed the other boy talking. There were people sitting on each other. There was a person wearing nothing but a cloak around her, the whole scene seemed tense and chaotic. She was not quite sure what was happening here and didn't know if she wanted to ask. She stood awkwardly in the main hall, observing those around her, most of them seemed to be in their teen years as well. She turned back to the boy at the door with a question on her lips. "How did you all get here?"
That is because it was pasted all over my profile >.>
That sad moment when making more lux than any other teams final score wasn't enough to get you in the leader board. I blame @Captain Arch and @cstar for their feud.
Jack the Ripper The creature, the Kishin staggered back before falling, his body seeming to disappear leaving nothing but a red soul floating for Rodrick's taking. You could see the anger, the scowl on his face before he died, but was gone before he could speak another word to the two boys that remained after the fight. Mission Complete! Congratulations on completing your first mission. You can call or report back to Lord Death, enjoy London more, or just return to the academy. The choice is yours. Feel free to relax and have some fun before your next mission if you would like. NPC's are always available for you to talk to and if you want other students to talk to, I can make that happen as well. Good job you two. You just took your first steps to creating a death weapon.
Dania's arms crossed as she listened to Garrett talk to her brother. She was protective of her brother and while yes, he was a lower rank than them, she felt he deserved more respect than that. That being said she only got the respect she did because of her rank, and that was a hard one to get up to that point. Before, most people didn't pay attention to her, only the admiral at the time did, in fact he took great interest in her to almost the point it was creepy. She sat through that, even when it was uncomfortable for the sake of humanity because she was learning how to take control of the ship and being groomed to replace him one day. While there was always other options, someone young and strong had been the better option just because the likelihood of the surviving. Dania waited and watched Garrett leave before sighing. "Don't worry about him. I am the admiral, not him. Lets walk." She instructed as she continued to stroll at a slow pace towards his office. "With the fact that three of our trade partners just dumped us, and the attack yesterday, there is so much to do. I don't work shifts. I work until I can't keep my eyes open anymore, sleep for a few hours and then it is back to work. Speaking of, if I send you some documents can you rush to translate them? I think I got it but I just want you to double check before I sign us on to something really stupid. We need new trade partners bad, but not bad enough that I will sacrifice anyone." Dania said as she ran her fingers through her long tangled hair. They finally passed by Jael's office and she slowed her pace, stopping. "I should probably let you get to work before Commander Cartwright is on our ass again about work. I need to do more paperwork and set the course. Expect to be moving on soon. I will be setting the course while you translate my documents. Perhaps when this is actually over we can have dinner or something, I don't know. We will see. I'm sorry." She said as she turned to head back to her own office with a small sigh. She didn't want to go back to work but she knew it was a must.
She wasn't pacing but she may as well been with the amount she was shifting waiting for an answer to the door. It wasn't a long wait, but when you didn't know what where you were, if knocking was a good idea, and what loomed in the darkness beyond, any small amount of time seemed like an eternity. Aislinn could hear noise inside, there was someone in there, or more so, numerous people by the sounds of it. It was not particularly quiet inside that castle, Aislinn hadn't decided if that was a good or a bad thing yet. On one hand generally signs of life apart from heartless were a good thing, but if it was a group of people plotting something evil like you read in the stories, then even with her keyblade, she would have a tough time defending herself. Depending on how well trained they were, she might stand a chance, but maybe's were not all the comforting. The door finally creaked open and she found herself staring at a relatively young man. He was too old for her to refer to him as a boy, but he was also far from a man. He was somewhere in his late teens so it seemed. Of all the people who could have answered the door, that was the last thing she expected. At least there was nothing evil or menacing about him. It took her a moment before she realized that he had asked her a question. "My apologies. My name is Aislinn. Do you live here? Where is here anyways? You see one moment I was fighting back dark creatures threatening my home and the next I was falling into darkness after being swarmed. I followed the light here." Aislinn motioned behind her. "I know it sounds absurd, you don't have to believe me, but could you at least direct me towards the nearest town?" She asked. It was a bit of a stretch to think there was an entire town in a place like this, but the castle had to get it's resources from somewhere, right?
Dania didn't know what she thought of Garrett taking her up on her offer, she honestly hadn't expected him to. He was a man of his work, and while Dania respected that greatly, she wasn't in the mood for work at this moment and she didn't think he knew how to talk about anything else. However she was proven wrong as he spoke of a subject that was worse than the idea of work. He began to talk about the "What if's." It was true that in the quiet it left a lot to the imagination, however if she didn't let her mind go there, then there was nothing to imagine. It seemed that Garrett realized his mistakes because his next words were an awkward attempt to make a joke on the matter. "It is true a lot can happen in the silence, but I think yesterday was enough excitement for one day." Dania said as her hand moved up to the bandage on her arm. She was slightly distracted with her mistake yesterday when another voice came from behind, also making an attempt at cracking a joke. This time however Dania had no hesitation reacting. She turned around and lightly smacked her brother in the back of the head. "You aren't helping, brat." She said with a bit of a laugh. She cared a lot for her younger brother and while she could be harsh on him at times, liked to joke around when she could. "So you were able to separate yourself from your hordes of stuff long enough to visit your sister for once? Or are you just here to enjoy Garrett's wondrous company?" She teased. It wasn't that Garrett wasn't a good person, she admired him quite a lot, but he wasn't the first person you would think of to go visit. Plus Dania couldn't pass up the chance to crack a joke of her own.
Username: Aelin Fireheart Name: Maristela (Aka Stella) Tennfjord Age: 19 Magic type: Emotia Power 1: Dream Manipulation: She is able to enter peoples dreams and shape them, or help create a dream in someone's mind. Power 2: Emotional Manipulation: She can enhance or decrease the amount that someone is experiencing an emotion, the only stipulation is that they have to be already experiencing that emotion to some degree before she can manipulate it Power 3 (if applicable): N/A Appearance: Here Occupation: Baker Weapon: A Dagger Bio: Being raised by a single, widowed mother, was not an easy life. Maristela spent her days in their small home that doubled as a store front at the edge of town, helping her mother with the bakery. While the bakery was her fathers idea, after he died, shortly before her first birthday, her mother decided to keep it going. Running the business and raising a child was not easy however, and it ended with her spending most of her time helping her mother with the bakery. It started with stocking the shelves as her mother made the bread, eventually evolving to running the front store. In recent years as she got older, Stella moved to baking the bread and her mother ran the front of store. It had turned out that Maristela was a huge klutz and was breaking more things, and dropping more bread than the money they were making could replace. A least things went slightly smoother for her in the back of house where there was less things to break, just a few more things for her to burn herself on. During her spare time Maristela would work on the small drops of magic she had, often practicing their family power on her mother. It seemed strange the powers she had. While it wasn't all that unusual to be able to manipulate things to do with the mind, for just an average bakers daughter to powers to create dreams or manipulate emotions, it felt out of place, that is why she never took the time to prefect them, instead only playing with them on occasion, as a way to keep herself entertained, and not for any other use. That was why when a request came for her, she found it odd, but she knew, even if her or her mother didn't align themselves with any particular high family, she could not resfuse the request.
Aislinn paced for a moment. She was about to enter the castle, when she looked back and saw a figure near by. She got a bit nervous however unsure about anyone in this place. Instead of approaching the stranger she decided to knock on the door to the castle. At least inside it would likely be safer than away from the light where the same creatures that attacked her world dwelled. The figure was all in shadows, so without the ability to see features, she worried it was another creature that might attack. She waited impatiently in for the castle doors to possibly open. She wondered who would live in such a place anyways. This world didn't seem very inhabitable in her opinion, so whoever was beyond the doors may not have been friendly. That being said she wanted to trust her keyblade. It was warm and comforting in her hands, like there was something good coming from this, not bad.
Pharaoh Turning left they pair found themselves pushing through one final door opening to a large room. In the center of the room was a casket, a tomb. At first it was quiet then the casket started moving, fully attacking the pair. "Leave my resting place!"
