| Rinada circled once more, then slowly descended. She landed softly on the ground, a few feet from the little group. Rinada crossed her arms, looking over the three travelers. *An odd combination...* She thought, smiling. "Hello." Rinada tried. Dandria paused for a second as the Angel that had flown around before descended in front of the enemy group. *Drat* She thought as she quickly and silently descended herself from the tree, one away from the only guy of the group. Keeping to shadows, remembering her teachings from a life of being an assassin, she quickly got closer to the unsuspecting group. Lisia moved through the bushes slowly, always keeping an eye on the group as she crept around and behind them. *Seems like the angel's a passer-by, hmm.. can't take chances that she isn't one of them..* Lisia thought as she continued behind them. She then noticed the child *What a cute child.* A smile came to her lips before she quickly shook it out of her. "Garnet.." She whispered not knowing whom that name belonged to. Her mood then just as quickly changed again into her usual sadistic frame of mind *A perfect victim for my tracking devise..* "Lets follow the main path then." Celes suggested pointing just behind her. "Should lead to the square.." Phulan opened an eye as she was woken up by the Angel. She turned her head to look at the stranger and grouchily said "Hello...who are you?" Her golden gaze rested on the Angel for a moment longer before turning to the rest of the group, wondering what they should do. Ruman smiled and bowed before the group "Then shall we go?" And with that he began to walk ahead of the group. He called back to the others "I would have said ladies first, but as we are not entirely safe from evil, I thought I should go first...however if there are any objections..." Pansha smirked and quietly said "Shadow camoflage." As dark shadows encased her, she disappeared, only to reappear under a shadow of another tree, near the group. Once Akana got into position, she'll jump out in front with a surprise attack. She watched the group carefully, especially the Angel as she was new and Pansha had no idea which side she was on, or if she was just a passer by. I suppose we will find out very soon, she thought. Dandria was paused, ready for Akana and Pansha to make the first moves. Herself and Lisia weren't familiar with these 'Senshi and Knights' but that fact was clearly forgotten by Dandria over the rush of battle. She started to focus her energy on her own attack.. Lisia came up behind the group, keeping inside the thick bushes so that she wouldn't be seen. Her attacks weren't so handy in this case but she could provide great backup if the others at any point, got a little drained. Celes followed Ruman's lead looking mostly to the ground. She had to stop quite abruptly when Ruman unexpectedly turned round. She then looked back at the group to see if any one would answer. Rinada smiled, taking a tentative step forward. "My name is Rinada, I live in the city. I was out flying and I saw your group here... not quite the safest place to be resting." She cleared her throat. "Or the most common." Iviana sat up, looking at the Angel. "We're waiting for some friends to come back. They went to go... run some errands in the city." She looked at Phulan and Lantis, then back to Rinada. "And, no offense, we're safer out here than in there." Ivi said, nodding towards the city. "I don't care," said Nevarra as she stared out the window, she seemed to fading out of the real world and going into her dream world. The thirteen year old girl kept staring out the window, as if she was half expecting someone to be coming who wasn't there. Akana made sure the others were set, as she smirked, "Trick of the Eye.." Her figure disappeared from view, as she circled around quietly, getting in front of the small group. Waiting for a moment and remaining invisible, she slowly brought a hand up, putting it to her forehead. "Illusion's.." Akana whispered, as her dragon form appeared before her enemy, "BEAM!" She yelled loudly, as she went back to being invisible, a beam of electrical energy coming from her gem and heading to the senshi and knight. Lantis was getting ready to say something to the Angion, as a beam came out of nowhere, heading towards them. Getting up quickly, he moved the girls and Kia with a quick shove, then stepped back and let the beam go through. "I believe, ladies, we have a visitor." Gaia laughed lightly, "Go ahead and lead the way, Ruman," the elf replied, looking to Yasmine. "You don't speak much." "The less said, in most cases, the better things go," the young woman replied, glancing about the large city. As Gaia started following Ruman, Yasmine walked behind her. Juline still held her daughter in a motherly embrace, a worried look on her face as she looked down at Nevarra. Kissing her daughter softly on the top of the head, she let her go, then took Nevarra's hand gently. "Come with me, then... you've been cooped up in the house too long." Lilia nodded silently, "Her mother is Akuma, her brother is Kiley. The name should strike a familiar chord.. when they got loose from the imprisonment Juline put them in, she volunteered to find the knights and senshi and defeat her family again. It's really quite upsetting.. but understandable. I knew Akuma, and Kiley.. before what is taking place now. Ending their existence, as harsh as it sounds, is the only way for Juline to feel like the guilt is off her conscience." Loki looked on as the group began to move forward. "Something bad is going to happen, Gaia. I can feel it, I don't know how but I can feel it." He said to Gaia. When Kamui heard the names of Juline's mother and brother a dark angry frown draw across his face. He didn't mind the fact that they where Juline's family, he was grateful that she was not like them but the feeling of loss came back sharply. "This will be a very painful battle.." Kamui then wondered, *What if we manage to survive to the last battle.. If the council has yet to announce their release to the people it must mean that they are powerful, will we be strong enough to defeat all of them?* His mind full of activity, wondering what the council were planning and whether history would repeat itself once again. Pushed over to her side, Lisia had the perfect opportunity to plant her tracking devise on the little girl mingled in the group. She quickly emerged from the bushes behind them and clipped it onto the small child's clothing while they were still distracted and then disappeared out of sight. |
