The Enigmatic Knights: Sign of Valor

Jordxy walked Inside the base, surprisingly no one was here yet, except for the leaders, but they were doing their own business. She was always alone, by herself, with nothing to do, so she liked to fly her own little Gummi Ship, the leaders didn't know about, Into town and do stuff there, she mainly liked to help a friend of hers with his job. Its all she really did, and fight heartless and nobodies. Finally, with some people In the base she would be able to do something Interesting with them, hopefully. Even though she was 21, It didn't stop her from having a kids personality.

 

After what felt like several hours of driving through the deseert, the truck finally stopped. Kain, wih a sluggish smile on his face, leaped out of the truck and expected to finally see something other than rocks and sand.

Unfortunately....it WAS more rocks and sand, but a huge dark hole opeend up in front of the truck. The only reason the driver stopped was so he could run out and head for the hills.

Kain watched him run away and chuckled a bit. "Well, thanks for the lift, compadre." As he looked at the truck, he noticed it was being sucked in by the dark hole that opened up. Then, several Heartless were morphing in through the void.

Kain took a few steps back and held out his hand. His hand shined and his Sleeping Lion keyblade appeared in his palm. Grabbing the handle, it pointed it at the Heartless.

"I think it's only fair to warn you: Monday was a baaaaad day to choose to mess with me."

Jumping into the air, he started hacking away at the smaller heartless. When they all dog-piled over him, he cast fira and they dissapeared in the surrounding flames.

 

Venture Jr. was still thinking until a loud beep from the ship's hub alerted him that he was about to land. Venture observed his surroundings. He hadn't seen the base for a while.

A middle aged man, smoking a cigar approached Jordxy. "Jordxy Vanhalian. Pleasure to meet you. Mind if I talk to you for a bit." the General said. "You're the first one here after all." the General extended his hand. "General Jack Martin." he stated.

 

Jordxy looked at the man who stated he was 'General Jack Martin' she figured she better call him General "Its nice to meet you too, General" Jordxy shook his hand. Amazingly she was good at this kind of stuff, Signing papers, meeting Important people. Although this guy was from the Government, or so she had heard.

 

Kain was fighting off Heartless and trying not to get sucked into the hole on the floor for nearly half an hour. After a while, when it loked like all the Heartless were gone, Kain fell to the floor aseat and wiped the sweat off his forehead. For a 20 year-old, he wasn't very active at all.

Just when he thought he could take a nap for a few minutes, a giant Heartless was seeping in through the floor. Kain got up as it rose up and watched it wave it's arms around. It was a ball-shaped Heartlees with a few chains over it's face. His eye was wide open with disbelief as his jaw dropped.

He picked up his keylade and went to charge at it, but he stopped mid-step and shot a Blizzara at it. The Heartless went flying back and hit some rocks, giving Kain time to run away.

"I don't have time to play with a ball right now. The sooner I get to this place, the better."

He looked behing him to see if he was being followed, and the Heartless was right there charging at him with it's mouth wide open. With a sigh, Kain jumped backwards over the Heartless and stabbed his keyblade to the center of it's head. The second his keyblade touched it, it disapeared into the darkness, maing Kain fall and land on his face.

There was a pause, then he lifted his head, looking irritated as he wiped the sand off his face.

"I hate Mondays.", he said as he was walking towards the shadier area on the other side. At least he got out of the dest. Pulling out a pair of binoculars, it looked like there was some kind of complex a few miles off.

He stood back on the side of the road and waited for a car to drive by and pick him up.

 

The General motioned for Jordxy to follow him. He walked into a wide meeting room. A gigantic silver table sat in the middle of the room with chairs surrounding it. "As you can see we've redesigned the castle and-" the General started before being interrupted by a soldier.

"Sir! Another knight approaches." the soldier said.

"Let him in." the General said. "As I was saying, there will be a few changes. I'm assuming you know that you work for the government as of now. The enigmatic Knights are no longer an independant group, but servants of the people."


"Servants of the people, eh?" Venture Jr. said as he walked in.

"Venture. I knew your father." the General said extending his hand.

"Yeah, I know." Venture said as he shook it.

"Shame about what happened to him." the General said.

"Yeah.......So are we gonna get on with this meeting or what? I skipped breakfast and lunch to get here get here as fast as I could."

"I understand." the General chuckled. "Let's say we eat a late dinner as we wait for the other knights?"

"Sounds like a plan." Venture said.

 

Jordxy looked at the man who she had heard of, then the General. She suddenly felt quite small In her own 'Home', knowing that she would be a servant to the people (or she guessed he also meant the Government) didn't sound very persuading, If that was the Idea of bringing The Knights here.
Jordxy became quiet and waited for the other members.

 

The General left the room as chefs brought multiple steaming plates of food. Venture's eyes grew wider. He was going to make up for that missing breakfast and lunch. As the chefs left the room and Venture had filled his plate full of food, he decided to start up a conversation. "So....what do you think of this whole Government sponsered Enigmatic Knights thing?" he asked.

 

After ten minutes, a car finally showed up. This time it was a black van. THe driver opened the door and let Kain in.

With another sigh, kain went diggin into his pockets and pulled out the envellope. he showed the envelloped to the driver and pointd at the address. "Okay, this is how it works: you're just supposed to drop me off at this address, and then someone's suppposed to be sent to pick me up from there. DO you know where this place is?

The driver, a bulky man with a pair of sunglasses and a bald head, tilted his shades down to get a good look at the address and noodded. "Yeah, I've been there. It should be a half-hour drive."

Kain rubbed his eye and looked up. "God, I hate Mondays. Okay, let's go."

 

Jordxy grabbed an apple, she wasn't really hungry and Apples were all she really ate, and looked at Venture "They don't sound very convincing," she took a bite out of the apple and looked at It "I mean, they could put It some other way then 'servants' surly no one wants to be a servant, I know I don't." She finished and took another bite out of the apple. Jordxy knew she was being stubborn, but really, who DID want to be a servant? She continued "I'm not really looking for anything, so I'll probably just do It for the fun of It"

 

"I hear that there plannin' something big." Venture said between bites of steak. "I heard that they were going to divide the groups of knights up into about three divisions. Should be interesting." Venture said. "So. ......Why did you join the knights?" he asked.

 

Kain was looking outside, watching the desert slowly turn into what seemed to be a highway. It really was the slowest half-hour of his life. Nothing to do but stare awkwardly outside the window becasue he was afraid of maing eye-contact with the driver. He just got a nasty vibe from the guy. Looked like someone who gets angy easily. When the car finally stopped, it looked like an airport. kain walked ouside and took a deep breath, then gave the driver a small tip for the ride.

He looked around the airport and saw a man in a tuxedo holding a sign with his name writeen on it. Kain walked up to the guy and waved at him. "Hiya. That would be me you're waiting for.", he said with a grin.

Then man nodded and walked towards the outside of the airport. Kain, looking confused, followed him. The man pulled out what seemed to be a giant silver briefcae with all kinds of flashing buttons on it. He pushed a button and a huge flash of light came out of nowhere.

When Kain's eye could focus again, he looked around and noticed two people in a room with a couple of plates on the table. he rubbed his eye to see if he was hallucinating but it was real. The man with the tuxedo walked out of the room, leaving Kain in a pretty awkward situation. Still dazed, he took a seat and took another deep breath.

"So......anybody know what's going on?", he asked.

 

Three Divisions, Eh? Interesting Jordxy noticed Venture's other question and looked away "I didn't really join...The leader found me on the dirt road when I was 16, I don't really remember how I got there...But he said he would let me join and," Jordxy finished her apple "Here I am, Its been my home for 5 years. Although It does get boring around here, thats why I built my own Gummi Ship" She looked around "But the leader Isn't supposed to know, If he find out Ive been going off on my own he'll have my neck for It. I'm not supposed to let anyone find out where the base Is" she rolled her eyes "But I do It anyway" Jordxy grinned. She really was a kid at heart.
Jordxy looked at the man who had sat down at the end of her speech "You feeling alright? I'm Jordxy Vanhalian, nice to meet you" she put out her hand to greet him

 

"Huh? Another one." Venture said. "You apart of the knights too?"

General Martin walked in and saw Kain. "Ah. Kain good to see you. The name's General Jack Martin. These two are Jordxy and Venture ." the man said as he pointed to each member.

"Must be a new knight." Venture whispered to Jordxy.

"Enjoy yourselves." the General said."I'll give you all the full meeting when the others arrive."

OOC: I gotta go for tonight.

 

OOC: Okay, See ya!! I'll have to get off soon as well, going to a party =3

 

OOC: Yeah, I gotta go too. Last post for me.

Kain looked at the General as he was walking away then turned his head to Venture Jr. and Jordxy. He gave them a feint grin and nodded at them. "Hi. I'm Kain.", he said a bit nervously, shaking Jordxy's hand.

 

Roka sighed as he looked at the new combatants he'd be fighting alongside. They were nowhere like his old companions, but he had to make with what the best he could do. He then started to come down the stairs. "So, these are my new warriors?" Roka then smirked at the three standing in front of him. He didn't even seem to notice the General since they have been acquainted one too many times before. He then went up to Kain. "Hmm...scrawny, but I'm sure you have 'determination', right?" He then continued onto Jordxy. "Another woman? Y'know, there was a knight before you very similiar, I just hope you can fight. Because many times, we won't be able to help you." Then last, Venture. "Well, seems we have the bulkiest one out of the bunch. Very obvious that you can fight, only problem is if you can keep and maintain orders." Roka moved back up the stairs. "Meet me in the Dining Hall for dinner. We'll discuss our first mission." Roka then mumbled, "I just hope that's not all of em...."

 

OOC:
Okay...I'm back!I'm going to start mines now...

BIC:
"Stupid Heartless..."a young girl whispered. She swunged at the last Heartless with her keyblade,which was called Enlighted Star. 'Weird name',she thought when she first got it.
The girl composed herself and looked at the letter.

Dear Karla,

Meet us at the base at 9:00.The address is at the back of this letter.

Karla looked at her watch. "10:00! I'm going to be late!" She shrieked and called back her Keyblade and started running. She got to where the letter said. She looked at the watch again,which said 10:20. Karla started to panic,"Hope they don't kill me for being late." She looked around and noticed a guy standing at the entrance. "Umm...Hi.I'm suppose to-"

"You're one of the Knights,right?"

Karla looked up at the man. "Yes."She replied. The man showed her the way and pointed at a table. "Here you go. Count your lucky star because they didn't started."
Karla sighed and looked up to him. "Thank you!"
Karla walked up to the table and sat down on one of the empty seats. She looked around and noticed three other peoples. "Umm...Hi?"

 

Kain watched Roka walk away, amazed with his own willpower. "Wow. I can't believe I actually kept myself from punching that guy right there.....Then again, I'd regret it an hour later."

He got up and stretched his arm a bit. "Well, all and all, they seem to be an okay bunch of people." He looked around at the room, then looked at the clock on the wall.

He turned his attention to the girl that just walked in to the room. "Hi there. I'm Kain."

 

Tera Roth stepped forward.

"Greetings," he said, flipping his brown hair out of his eyes with his hand. "My name is Tera Roth. So this is the members of the new contingent? Well, then..."
