The Agency

[Kokay]

William Jones

((Not a problem! Senka makes it sound like Will is terrible. What's her plan for him? O.o))

 

Will was alone. He looked around. There was no one else in the area with him. He felt his Grace taking over, slower than normal. But, as it did so, something edged it's way into his mind. His first instinct was to smother the unknown presence. But, he didn't. It had offered him a name and was now telling him a warning. A warning of another woman. A temptress. Will felt the need to simply turn from the advice and continue on unabated. And yet, there was something more there. The warning had told him a place to go. He would go there. Seeing as he had no where more important to go, Will walked to the nearest farm. His heart weighed heavily in his chest and his steps were only silent due to his Grace. For once, however, he wished that the farmers had seen him.

 

Sinc ethe farmers could not see him, Will had only one choice. He walked to the barn and untied their horse. In it's place, he left all the money he had. He could make more money, and he was certain that these people would need his money more than himself. He mounted the horse with the grace he never seemed to lose and spurred it out of the barn. Once the two were on the rode, William patted the horse's neck. In truth, he had never ridden a horse. He had watched others do it, and now found himself feeling incredibly awkward as he sat on the beast's back. "Your name will be...Umber." He said quietly, addressing the horse. It had a dark brown tone to its fur that he had never seen. It was of a dusky perfection that he would long admire. The ride would be long, but he was confident in both his own abilities and Umber's. Soon, he would be to the place where he'd been directed to by the voice.

Anri

 

"I've no clue." Anri's voice was dry, but he said it simply. He was never told where the carriages go. He was to escort them to a certain point then break off when another Agent picked up and go back to his business. It was that way so, if an Agent was given the option of telling or fighting, they always oppted for the fighting. The only Agent that would know would be the one on the final leg of the transport, and even then it would be only so far.

 

He twisted the pole in his hand absently, feeling his Grace pulsing in time with his blood. He wasn't as highly skilled in any one fighting skill, but he didn't have to be because of his grace.

((does somebody mind telling me where I am because I am confused with the carriage thing. Am I driving it or did it go off by itself and if I am the one driving it, who is the other one with anri.))

[Kokay]

((Your character can be driving, if you'd like. The person who iw with Anri is Adelaide. She's about to make him wish his Grace wasn't survival just so he can die... Joking, joking. So, you can have Blade driving it, or have him notice and try to find where his former prisoners ended up?))

[9pmg5665]

((second thing sounds good and sorry if my words ore off but I just had some rootbeer so I care a little less))

 

 

Blade heard the load creak of the door being shoved off and saw something sharp flying off past him,almost hitting him. he yelled out"f***, what the dam as that?!!"then he saw the prisoners escaping the carriage. "hey you,get back here or your dead!"Blade unhooked the carriage horse and decided to ride after the target on it. the horse was used to the carriage but showed no care to the difference. he rode after the target to at least touch him and pull him over or at the most take him but that was a long shot. on his path, he started to drop some of his things,making a trail to him in case of emergency. he followed some strange horse tracks , to see the target on a horse. he chased the target to the horses short but fast leaps waiting for him to close up on him.

((ATTENTION TO ALL RPERS ACTIVE HERE: Those of you with active True Agency Agents please make your opening post at the meeting. IT IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT YOU DO NOT MISS THIS MEETING))

[gistofeverything]

((Does Roxanne need to be involved with this, or shall she stay a regular Agent; will update her whenI have something to work with. And is the ball over? If so, I'll bring my Agents that I control to Mariee's Castle.))

 

Lady Mariee

 

In all of the confusion, Mariee couldn't find Lisa, and so didn't get to speak with Richard. Then she had seen William dancing with another girl, when all she had wanted to ask of him was a dance. Lovissa had suggested this ball to be nice, but she wasn't sure if she should have come at all. She walked out to the front door, and sat on the steps, crying as she had when he first attacked her.

((I've got to join somewhere so Kokay 9pmg5665 hope you don't mind))

 

Darren was leaning against the barn wall, his eyes closed. He heard a sudden noise, eyes opening, he looked towards the barn door to see a shadowed figure clatter out on a horse. Darren grunted as he stood up. Hooray might actually get to do something Darren's services had been requested that day, apparently this families horse was a prime breed and their past guard's contract had run out.

 

Darren felt his muscles ache. He heard a clatter and turned to see the thief leaving. Darren turned and faced the barn and in one jump he was gripping the roof. Climbing on top he gazed out at the thief. He noticed a rider heading towards the unknown thief, he also noticed a horseless carriage a little way off. Perhaps this guy was an escaped criminal. Darren shrugged, he needed the horse back if he wanted to get paid. Darren walked to the far side of the roof. Curse these people, only having one horse! Darren bent down then with a running start leapt off the barn. Darren angled himself the barn had been high and long. He was lucky that the rider wasn't really moving. With a thud Darren landed on the road very close to the thief, propelled by his role Darren was up quick the crossbow drawn and aimed at the thief. "Would you kindly dismount and return that horse for me please?"

 

((Sorry if that spoiled your wonderful plans, all I could think of))

[9pmg5665]

(( what plans?! I have been wingin this the whole time ))

Lady Mariee

Moping on the front steps, Mariee didn't know what to with herself. Her whole night had been wasted. and she couldn't find any of her Agents. She didn't feel good at all, and just wanted to go home.

 

((Just waiting for Merryier or Kokay... )

William Jones

 

Will pulled against the reins of the horse, seeing a man come near the road and demand he took the horse back. He rolled his eyes and sighed. But, the sound of a pursuer changed his thoughts. He spurred the horse forwards, passing the man faster than he had been going before. "Sorry! I've got a hostile force trying to capture me. I paid them!" He yelled backwards. The horse blended with the countryside. It was some sort of extension of his Grace or, perhaps, it was pure luck that the horse was dark brown and the night was near moonless. Will laid against the horse's neck, feeling his Grace take over. He was, however, riding a horse. They could follow the horse if needed.

((To flesh out Mariee's Agency...

 

Username:gistofeverything

 

Name: Maxime

 

Appearence: A tall young woman, with thigh-length cornsilk hair that she always wears down. She sticks to mainly black dresses and gowns, but has one pink nightdress; even she doesn't know why she has it. When on assignments, she wears small skirts to prevent hindering her movement.

 

Gender: Female

 

Personality: She is quick to her flaring temper, and doesn't likestaying in one place for too long. She cannot trust many people, but she would like to. Being like she is, not many people want to be around her. She tries to control her temper, but cannot.

 

Grace: Unnatural Grace - Maxime never falls. Her every movement looks like it is choreographed. Mariee chose her because she thought that Maxime would never make a mistake in battle.

 

King or Queen: Lady Mariee

 

History: When she was small, her mother had enrolled her in a dance class. Her Grace had started to kick in when she was around 5 years old. Within months, she was at the head of the class, and all of the students detested her. Then her parents had started pressuring her to try harder and harder, and eventually, she ran away to work at Mariee's castle.

 

She grew particularly fond of the Lady, and Mariee started to notice her. Maxime had never been mentioned in ant accidents, and she noticed the way Maxime moved, and her eye colors. Within weeks, she was inducted into Mariee's Agency.

 

Weapons: She has a set of 5 white-gold, double-bladed throwing knives with her at all times.

 

Other: N/A))

 

[Sylverfinger]

((just to add some people, and I also want another person to RP.))

 

Username: Sylverfinger

Name: Ruya

Appearance: Tall and with a natural gracefulness, she has long black hair and one blue and one black-gray eye. She often wears a hooded dark blue jacket and black pants with high gray boots with an intricate silver bracelet on her left wrist. She has a blueish-gray cloak as well, which she often wears.

Gender: Female

Personality: Quiet and grave, she does not like interacting with other people and prefers living by herself. Consequently, she lives separate of where the other agents normally live, in an isolated tower room high up.

Grace: Water Bending (is that allowed?)

King or Queen: Lady Lovissa

History: Her mother was Graced as well as an Earth Bender and was regarded as a freak in all the villages and towns they had attempted to live in, so they and her father had moved to an isolated forest, were her mother claimed to be most comfortable in. They had chosen to live near a river cutting through the forest for efficiency of fresh water, and it was there that Ruya had discovered her Grace. They had lived there for some time until her mother was struck by a strange disease and died. After her death, her father went mad with grief and she ran away from his mad anger, but she chose a spot relatively close to him, where she could still visit him from a walk of four kilometers downstream.

One day, she was walking to her father's home when she heard fighting in that direction. She had ran to it, but was too late, and all that was left was the crimson blood staining everything, a tattered, broken in house, and her father's body with three throwing knives still buried in his chest. She had sworn an oath that day, that she would avenge her father and all they were related to. Tracking down them, she believes that they were soldiers of the army, and, after killing them, still has a deep, burning hatred for the royalty.

Weapons: The throwing knives that killed her father in a leather belt she fashioned herself, and a claymore.

Other: She is in the True Agency. She has a very good sense of smell.

((Both new characters are accepted. We can keep on RPing. Merry is probably bogged down with school. As am I, but I'll still be available. Though I risk angering Merry, I think a timeskip forward to the next day is in order. Anyone who reads this post is encouraged to RP the timeskip. Thanks ))

TIMESKIP - The Next Morning

 

Lady Mariee

 

The next morning, she had eaten a hearty breakfast, and was ready to go out and face the world, when, lo and behold, all of her Agents were missing! She frantically searched for them, to no avail... She had went to her throne room, desolate, when she had found a note sitting on one of the arms. It read:

 

Sorry for not telling you sooner, but we are away on important business. We will be back soon. Sincerely, Your Agents.

 

Well, at least they told her where they were, so she didn't have to worry so much. She decided to get ready to enter Richard's lands to get some herbal medicine.

 

((Will post Roxanne and Maxime when I have something to work with...))

Ruya

 

Ruya scented the air delicately, inhaling the smell of humans and perfume and horses and horse droppings, as well as various other hodge-podge smells. She headed towards the big, stone, dark bulk of the castle of Lady Lovissa, to the meeting of the True Agency's. She was late. She didn't mind that so much, she just wanted to slip unobtrusively in with the hectic of the full crowd, without allowing everyone to stare at her if she arrived early and with the small groups filtering in. As it was, she arrived to the sight of Agent Kailey's back. There was no secrecy about it now. She was late, later than Agent Kailey's arrival, even, later than her stare over all assembled. Sighing quietly, she ducked in the entrance and tried to appear inconspicuous as she threaded, unobtrusively, she hoped, through the crowd.

(magic before timeskip)" You are not worth the time" and rode to Charles castle , only to be yelled at by his fellow agents and lord.(back to after time skip)

[gistofeverything]

Roxanne

 

Dannen had gotten her and Maxime to come with him to this meeting that she didn't know what it was about. She didn't even get to let her mother know where she was going, and she was starting to get a little fretted. Maybe he would elaborate when the meeting was over with.

 

Dannen

 

He brought Maxime and Roxanne to the True Agency meeting because they needed as many forces as they possibly could get. When this revolution got started, they would need many people to help bring the cause through this thing. He hoped that they would accept the offer as they stood in the crowd at the meeting place.

 

Maxime

 

Dannen had gotten them up early this morning to go to this "True Agency" meeting. Weren't they enough of an Agency? That's what she thought that they were, but obviously, she was wrong. Her mind was racing as they all were waiting for the speaker to come on the platform.

 

 

[Marcus Pheonix]

((Hmm don't really know what to post))

 

Darren sighed as he walked into a tavern. He had spent nearly the entire night searching for the horse thief, unable to do so he hadn't received any money. The building he was in now was where he conducted most of his business. He walked towards his normal table and noticed a man already sitting there. The man nodded towards Darren indicating him to sit.

 

Darren sat down, eying the man. "I have a job for you," the man began. "I have long grown tired of the insolence of the royals and I wish for you to... take care of them" Darrens eyebrows raised. "Sir I can understand your annoyance but I won't kill Lady Lovissa, if that is what you are asking," Darren replied.

 

The man shook his head, "I have heard of you and I know that you respect your Lady, but I do not wish for her to be killed, I wish for Lady Mariee of Envirium to be killed." Darren made to protest when the man produced a large bag of gold. Darren leaned back eying the bag. He looked at the man then back at the bag. A grin formed on the mans face, "I shall pay you a quarter now and if you complete this task within a week I shall pay you double the amount you see here.

 

Darren stroked his chin, this would be a big task. Not only would he have to avoid the agency there but he would also have to get into the castle first. However if he were to complete the job within a week he would likely not have to work for a good while. Darren leaned forwardf to the man his hand outstretched. "Ill do the job sir" The man just took a drink as he shook Darrens hand.

 

((Tell me if you don't think thats acceptable))

[gistofeverything]

((! That's mean... Is it because she's a nice person, or... Darn. ))

 

Lady Mariee

 

She had her things ready in great haste, and needed to go to Richard's land to get some herbal medicine. She decided to walk the town to help the wounded get to the infirmary. She had her sack of food on her back, and was walking out of the door before noon. The strong sunlight nearly blinded her, but she made way anyway, needing something to do.

 

King Richard

 

Richard woke up in a very poor mood this morning, and wasn't happy with anything that was going on at all. He was hungry, and hadn't been fed, he was ready to be dressed, but wasn't fitted... To that point, all of his Agents were missing. And he didn't know why... Surely he told to leave a notice or something that he could approve before he took his leave. He got dressed, and walked silently to his throne room. He found a piece of paper on the mat as you walked in saying:

 

We're sorry to inform you that we're away on urgent business, and won't be back for quite a while. We hope you understand! Your Agents.

 

Away? On urgent business? This was unacceptable. Richard sat down, livid, on his throne, creating punishments for his disloyal Agents for when they return.
