The Agnimitra

[Dragonhatchling]

Shadow, being ahead of the tornado and their targets, was pushed forward by the gust of wind that came. She took that into account, listening to Koi. With the tornado speeding toward her, Shadow pushed her speed faster. And where to find you after we get out? She asked Koi, gaining a little distance from the problem behind her. She knew to get out of this storm's way but diving straight down would just get her caught.

Shadow banked, moving to the side of the tornado and still ahead of it. Lightning barely missed her as she flew, causing her to growl. But the danger of lightning didn't stop the shadow dragon from getting away, though by the time the tornado was a long distance from her, Shadow was beginning to feel tired. "Just hope you got out of there Koi..." Shadow said, gliding now to conserve strength. She slowly was traveling lower, the shadows around her disappearing now.

 

((....hope I did that right... I read everything I missed that had something to do with me.. if not I can change it.))

[Kira1]

We'll go back for now. They won't move until morning, and if I judge Arasi's endurance right I can figure out where they are, Koi replied, clear of the tornado now after a battle against those winds. She headed back for the base now.

We'll rest, gather up a few who don't have a hangover in the morning, and leave as soon as we can before they have a chance to get moving, she informed Shadow if the plan she formulated.

I'll worry about that when we get to that point, she answered Sayuk, not in the mood to think that far ahead yet. First they had to get the Gem. She wasn't going to let anything cloud her thinking while that problem was still persistent. When Jade spoke to her, Midnight looked over her shoulder at the other.

 

"If it is, we'll just hope that we get lucky. Out here, there's not much in the way of shelter. Just warn us if you think things will get really bad really soon."

 

Midnight pulled out a watch that she kept in her coat pocket to check the time. It was probably a good idea to eat now to make sure they kept their strength up. She had them stop for food, handing out everyone their share of the rations for this meal. For Sayuk, he could either go after the seals she could tell he seemed to want or eat the rations they had. Once they had all eaten and drank some water, they were on their way again in the sky.

 

((yes, I skipped through that because those kind of scenes are boring and waiting for everyone would kind of take too long. X3

Since Sayuk has the best eyes in this kind of environment, you can have notice the top of the snow-buried temple anytime Skarx. Hm, perhaps after a little snowstorm so it'll have blown away some of the snow covering the temple.))

[Darkshadow]

((I'll have Sen wake up in the frozen temple of doom, okay?))

"What do I do Dancer!?!"

Dancer sighed as she kicked one of the men in an area that was particularly....sensitive to males. As the man groaned and fell over, she seized a stool from the bar and cracked it over the guy's head, so that he stopped chasing Vyner around the room.

"You look like an idiot, at least look presentable."

Dancer stomped on the device called the 'cellphone' smashing it into little shiny bits. The possessor of the cellphone was out cold on the floor, where Dancer had knocked him down a few seconds earlier. The man had called the 'POLL-ICE' and so the pair of them had to get out of there or trouble would find them pretty quickly. Dancer already heard the sirens in the distance, a screeching noise which hurt her ears even from that distance.

"Wait outside with all your precious alcohol. I'm going to make it look like someone robbed the place, and get some money for the next town. Remember, no more drinking there, or I'll beat you senseless and leave you to rot in a jay-el cell in those poll-ice stations."

She ran over to the cash register and broke it open pretty quickly with her fingers. There was a few thousand dollars in the register, and probably even more stashed away somewhere else. Stuffing the cash in her pants pocket, Dancer broke the cash register with another stool, which was luckily nearby, and turned away. She surveyed her work. Yep, it was a typical afterscene when she did her famous barfight.

"Let's go"

Dancer walked past Vyner and started to transform. Large, leathery wings sprouted out of her back as scales started running down her body. Dancer's form grew larger and larger in the dark, cloudy night, and finally, the giant brown dragon stood before the drunkard Vyner. Get on. Dancer called to Vyner using her mind.

[tai_kouen26]

Yue quickly jumped off of Bane's back when the other knelt down enough for him to do so. His face took on an expression of concern, however, when he saw the state Arasi was in. He sighed, shaking his head. There is no time for apologies at the moment he said. He took the time to look up into the sky and around, surveying his surroundings for a moment before looking to speak to Arasi again. We must keep moving if we want to have any chances of escaping our pursuers. With that, he bend down, picking her up bridal style. Being an eastern dragon, he was raised to treat females with respect and be delicate. So picking her up like this did not really concern him. And he didn't feel it would be appropriate to just sling her over his shoulder like a sack of potatoes. It was rude. He turned to Bane before speaking to the other. If you lead the way, then I will follow and and carry her he said to the other, waiting for his decision to move.

[Kira1]

"I know-" she began but was interrupted when Yue picked her up into his arms.

Arasi would have protested about being if it wasn't for the fact she could barely walk at the moment. Instead she just let her tired arms rest while crossed over stomach so they wouldn't be dangling. Usually she didn't like accepting help like this, preferring to show she was just as strong as the rest of them, but at this point she didn't have any strength. Not to mention it would take a good rest to bring her energy back to its fullest.

She looked over to Bane who Yue spoke to about leading the way and he'd follow.

[Dragonhatchling]

Shadow spotted Koi and made her way toward the other, pulling up beside her from below. Hopefully it won't be too little who don't have hangovers... She commented, gliding for a few moments before flying properly again. Hopefully no more lightning or giant wing storms that'll kill us either... or at least no lightning. She added, still angry toward the light that had caused her to fall. Where had that hit anyway? Shadow hadn't even thought about that until now and quickly did a once-over, coming to the conclusion that her tail had been the spot. Which probably would be good news if it weren't for the fact this made Shadow in an even worse temper toward electricity and light along with those who used it. She liked her tail the way it was before.

[Skarx]

Sayuk took a ration THEN went hunting seals to fill himself up. He was not going to let them have his portion of ration, the more he could take from them the better it was. It was just out of spite really since he had no other way of trying to kill them. While he was flying once more over the snow covered land his kind loved so much he felt something change. Jade was right... there was a storm coming and not a small one at that. Wonderful. The wind was starting to pick up, blowing a bit of snow on the ground and the snowflakes that were falling had become bigger and more numerous.

 

This was not going to be a pleasant flight, at least for his passengers. It was not long before the storm started blowing much more fiercely. It was just a question of minutes before they would be inside the blizzard and HE was not about to go anywhere else, but inside the storm. Who knew? Maybe one or two would get knocked off or die in it.

 

((Here's the storm))

 

---------------------------------------------------

 

Vyner just poked the guy who had just been knocked out cold, by Dancer with a stool. Quickly robbed him of some spare cash the person had and taking his wallet with it, just cause it looked fun and might be useful later for god knows what, it was just some petty detail anyway. Though he didn't have the chance to rob some more victim of Dancer since she ordered him to go outside AND even to not drink! Well... He had a while o go with only those, might as well ration them a bit. He was a moron, but not that stupid, though he loved that people thought so, made lot of things way easier.

 

Waiting outside he listened to the police alarm. They were getting closer by the second, but he was not worried about them. He could outrun pretty much everything and go places a car could not so he didn't care. Dancer was there anyway so he would not even have to bother running anywhere. As she started to transform he made sure his precious package was safe then just got on her back so fast she asked him AFTER he was sitting and ready to go in front of her huge wings.

"Way ahead of ya darling! Alsa it's PO-LICE nat POLL."

As much as he hated to go on her back cause she could fly, he was a bit too lazy to actually argue with her about how he could run. He choose another bottle to sip on while he was going to travel on her back. Might as well chill out while she does the work.

 

[Darkshadow]

"Way ahead of ya darling! Alsa it's PO-LICE nat POLL."

Whatever. If you fall off I'm not saving you.

Snorting, Dancer started flapping her giant wings, the draft created by them overturning a car.Whoops. Arching her long neck, Dancer grabbed the car with her teeth and put it right side up again, but leaving a couple of dents in it. Let's hope that was the barman's car. Looking around, and carefully tucking her tail in, Dancer flapped her wings once again and lifted up into the sky, virtually silent except for the small whoosh created by flapping her wings. It felt great to be back in dragon form again, and the human city grew smaller and smaller, a small web of lights on a dark background. The moon was covered by heavy, black clouds, which meant it was going to rain soon. Which city next, Vyner? We're not stopping for alcohol there, so pick wisely or I'll let you fall a thousand feet again.

[Kira1]

Sayuk, if you see any kind of shelter, land by it! If not, you're our shelter from this! she commanded him, not wanting to be flying through the storm that began to whip up. No doubt Sayuk would not ensure the safety of his passengers so it was best to just to land. With all the snow blowing around, Midnight could not see anything on the ground except more white snow and ice. Sayuk was the only one who could see anything, and as such finding shelter would be his job.

 

---

 

We'll bring ones with the necessary powers to go against theirs, Koi answered

 

The two soon reached the base again and Koi dismissed Shadow to go and rest until the morning. Koi would wake her just before the sky would be illuminated by the sun. After telling Shadow that, Koi headed off for her own room to rest.

[Dragonhatchling]

Shadow watched Koi go, wishing it didn't always have to be light to be considered day. She put that aside though, working her way to her room. Sleep won't be so bad at night for her now that she was actually tired. "Lets just hope no more random tornados or lightning storms show up... they will though if our 'friends' are hoping to play the same tricks..." Shadow muttered, opening the door to her room and going to sleep shortly after.

[Skarx]

Vyner carefully closed back his bottle in his bag when she said he'd fall if he was not careful. When she started flying he tried to grab her the best he could, but drunk as he was he was failing to do much good staying on board. He carefully thought about a city, but didn't remember any names. Dancer would probably be angry at his answer.

"I wanna go ta Britana! Ish should be a bit moar south Nah?"

He then lost his grip a bit to much and changed to his dragon form out of fear of falling digging his sharp claws in the scaly back of Dancer and then grabbing her neck with his front arms. He cursed his lack of wings as he repositioned himself on her large back. She was huge and he was small for dragons so he could ride on her back as a dragon for a bit. Though he was heavy from being scaly and bigger then a bus. He tried to imagine the scene glancing at his very colorful self. He laughed at the idea.

"Oy Dancer. Imagin a plane passin by! Pilat call to tha base and say : Base, we gat a brown winged beast with a rainbow ridin on it back!"

Finding himself very funny he started laughing and changed back to his human form not to put too much weight on her, his laughing changing from a mental and hissing one to a human, but still mental one.

 

----------------------------------------------

 

Sayuk could see nothing on the ground that could protect them from the blizzard. Having no choice he dived and landed on a random spot of snow then laid on it closing his wings tight to his body and laying his head on the snow to rest the storm out. He was not going to nurse them any more then this. They could get off his back and find shelter where they wanted just fine.

"No shelter, protect yourself or just plain die frozen for all I care."

He was tired, very tired. Flying for so long after so long of not doing so was starting to tired him a lot. He closed his eyes, his eyes slowly drifting to sleep with the nice temperature surrounding him, the snow offering him such a nice cold bed. Reminded him of home. He could be killed any minute by them, but he could not find it in himself to care. They'd freeze to death, it'll be fun.

[Jadeclaw]

Jade sighed and nudged Blake awake. He grunted and sighed as he saw the storm,"This is just nice." He closed his eyes and leaned on her some more as he fell back asleep. He was getting tired from what he was doing. The storm started to lighten up a bit and then it got better but he couldn't get rid of it. Jade sighed and narrowed her eyes as she looked around. Shee could see a little better then before but everything still seemed to blur. Blake snorted in his sleep and she sighed. If that was the best he could do then she possibly couldn't do any better. Right?

[ceonn]

Kasai was rather disheartened about the prospect of a storm. He had not had much more time before he would faint. When Sayuk landed and said there was no shelter nearby Kasai sighed and and made sure if Sen was still out of it. This wouldn't be very easy to survive through, but this mostly worried Kasai more when he thought about Sen. There was a pretty good chance he wouldn't survive this if he didn't awaken. Not having much more time before he would black out, Kasai attempted to yell out to Midnight above the storm.

 

"Make Sayuk find us shelter now, or use his powers to make us some. I don't feel like dying out here!"

 

Kasai tried to look around for any possible form of shelter, but with his vision so heavily impaired by the snow blowing around, he couldn't see it. If that blasted ice dragon could see any and just chose not to take us to it he wasn't making it obvious, so Kasai chose to believe him. Of course, it really didn't help that Kasai was starting to feel incredibly tired at this point. This situation was turning out to be a massive pain. If it wasn't the storm, or the chance of dying in said storm, of course it had to be falling unconscious. As his energy began to run out entirely and Kasai began to slip out of consciousness, he had a massive urge to punch Sayuk in the face for choosing to leave everyone out here for dead. Of course, there wasn't much time to think about that, as Kasai fully slipped out of the waking world and fell into dreams yet again. He just hoped that someone out there would ensure he would survive this, because otherwise, he was screwed.

(Sorry guys, I've been really busy the past couple of days >.<)

 

Bane sighed and shot Yue a grateful look when he picked up Arasi. Much as he wanted to carry on, he was just about holding himself up, let alone the other two. If it was move or die, though, and it seemed like it could well be with the two females on their tails, he could move. "Civilisation is not far away." He said thoughtfully. "But once we reach it, I doubt I will be able to go much further." If they reached it. His knees almost buckled when he took a step, but he steeled himself to go. He'd been more exhausted than this before and still carried on, and he chided himself now for letting himself get soft over the past few years.

[tai_kouen26]

Yue nodded when the other gave him a grateful look for carrying Arasi. He would be fine now. Sure, he was in a bit of pain still, but he would get by it. He had suffered worse injuries than this and still survived....Though...that was when he still had his weapons with him at least. He wasn't sure anymore, let alone as confident as he was before with his lightning to be able to just fight with that alone. He sighed, he needed new weapons. Perhaps he could find a metal smith to get them to fashion some new ones out of stronger material. After his last battle with some enemies, they had finally broken...Perhaps out of his own scales then...He was pulled out of his thoughts when Bane spoke again, looking over to him as he spoke about civilization not being too far away. That was good news. These two looked about ready to drop. He nodded, looking startled, however, when Bane seemed to stumbled for a moment before catching himself. This was even more reason for them to get to civilization as quickly as possible. He began to walk as well, but stuck close to Bane just in case the other became to weak to walk as well. Then as soon as he got this two to shelter he would go out a gain to get what he needed.

[Kira1]

((ceonn, one thing about the spell Midnight used, if you had been paying attention, is that they CAN'T talk to anyone else besides each other through mind speak. If you want to communicate with them, it has to be out loud, using your mouth.))

 

That wasn't a request Sayuk, it was an order, Midnight growled, the mental pain from not doing as she said hitting Sayuk, You WILL protect us from the harsh winds whether you want to or not.

She slid off his back, staying by his side as she waited for him to shut up and just do as she told him or else he'd have to continue suffering through the mental pain. At this point she really considered laying down some ground rules that he would have to follow through this entire trip. First thing on her mind would be that he wasn't allowed to talk anymore. Nothing good ever came from him and it just annoyed her more. She already wanted to strangle Sayuk at the moment.

She caught sight of Kasai passing out and sighed. Just what they needed, another unconscious person.

 

Inazuma caught Kasai before he hit the ground, carrying the weight of both Sen and Kasai now. He laid them next to each other, staying close to watch over them.

 

---

 

((it's ok Kaida. ^^ We're moving along nicely here and it's great~))

Arasi was silent as Bane spoke, preferring to save energy now so she wouldn't pass out on the way there. Being carried as she was made her very tempted to just close her eyes and drift off to sleep, but she forced herself to stay awake until they reached a motel. After all, she was the one with the money, and she doubted the other two knew that.

She managed to keep herself awake the whole way and they soon reached the town she had spotted from the sky. It was a city called Mount Isa QLD (Queensland). They had landed in an area that was southwest of the place where nothing but desert stretched out, with mountains not too far from them. After crossing the distance there was and stepped into a residential area, they found down the street a place called "Mount Isa Irish Club" which had accommodations. The group headed in through the front office since it seemed the place still buzzed with life at night.

Arasi instructed Yue to set her down in one of the chairs that were in the front office and she reached in her pocket to grab her money. She pulled out a wad of hundred dollar bills, freed several from the wad, before sticking the rest back into her pocket.

"This should be ale to pay for rooms for us," she said, holding out the money for one of them to take and go get a room.

[Skarx]

((Well... I considered that his mental speech as human was only between you and him and no one could access his mind, mental speak to him. Else... We'll have communication problem that will greatly handicap the dragon form to which it is the normal way of speaking.))

 

The mental pain he suffered from disobeying the order made his entire dragon body shake a bit as he clenched his jaws to endure it. Having no choice he sat and looked at the group, who was slowly agonizing in the snow. He noticed Kasai who fell unconscious, Blake slowly losing it too while Jade seemed to be at lost to what to do. Midnight trying to take care of Sen and Kasai. He opened his large wings to protect them from the wind and stop the pain at least a bit then mentally sigh. For once... maybe it would not hurt to be nice to someone. Who knew what would come out of it. If he didn't listen he was suffering, maybe if he was nice he would not suffer anymore. Worth a try...

 

He closed his eye, letting the power of ice flow in him then extended his wings around the small group of Agnimitras putting the tip of his muzzle to the tip of his wings blade and circling his tail around the group. When he was in position he froze himself up closing every gap his body left around the group with a thick layer of ice. The floor changed from snow to ice, leaving only a small coating of snow so he would not freeze anyone and get Midnight on his back again. That done he closed his eyes, tired from creating so much ice in so little time in such a complex way. He was frozen in place leaving the group no exit, but completely protecting them from the blizzard and even the cold. The place was actually starting to get a bit more warm as Sayuk focused all the cold to the wall, by removing it from around them.

 

At the very least... the fox would not whine anymore.

[tai_kouen26]

Yue did as Arasi ordered him too, looking concerned for a moment before setting her down into a chair. He watched as she suddenly pulled out some hundred dollars bill, raising an eyebrow for a moment before waving it off. When she held up the wad before the two of them, he volunteered himself to go get the rooms, since the other two were dead tired. He quickly walked up to the owner of the establishment up front, asking for two rooms. The owner looked at him, looked past him to the other two exhausted looking people before looking back at Yue. The owner continued to stare at him for a few more moments before finally deciding forfeit the room keys. There were only two rooms left apparently. But he supposed he and Bane could share a room while Arasi took the other for herself. He payed the money to the owner before getting the keys and walking over to the other two. He explained the situation before handing Bane one of the keys before going over to Arasi to pick her up again, gesturing for Bane to follow. Thankfully the rooms were right by each other, so they wouldn't have to travel far to speak to each other. Yue opened the door with the key, slipping inside and placing Arasi on the bed. He bowed to her, bidding her good night before leaving out the door, leaving the key on the nightstand for her. He sighed before continuing on to the room he shared with Bane. Later on tonight he would sneak out when the other fell asleep. He didn't want the other to worry about him. But if he was going to have to fight any time soon, he needed a weapon. Or rather weapons.

Edited March 1, 2011 by tai_kouen26

[KaidaShade]

By the time they got to the motel, Bane was pretty much just following Yue's lead. He was barely paying attention and he couldn't remember the last time he'd been this tired. He did, however, have the sense to turn his face away from the owner of the place, to hide his scarred eye. Didn't want to make himself too memorable, after all, though their ragtag, exhausted appearance would probably stick.

Yue wouldn't have to wait long for Bane to fall asleep. The big man took one look at the bed, stayed upright just long enough to kick his boots off and dump his staff in the corner before practically keeling over and falling asleep before his head even hit the pillow.

[Kira1]

And now you'll stay like that until I say otherwise, she instructed Sayuk, and then let him rest in the position he was in. She turned to the rest of the group, motioning for them all to stay close together around the two unconscious ones, Sen and Kasai. It was better to stay close and share warmth than to worry about personal space at this point.

"If you need sleep, go ahead," she said to them, "and hopefully these two will wake-up soon."

 

---

 

Arasi, still unhappy about being unable to walk on her own, let Yue carry her to the room they were given for the night. She was extremely tired and could tell she would sleep for awhile tonight. After Yue left the room, she fell fast asleep.

 

Like clockwork, even though she had been exhausted the other day, Arasi woke at sunrise. Her muscles were stiff from being pushed to their limit, but she could walk and use them. To get them to be less stiff, she began to stretch her muscles out using all the stretches she knew of. Once she was limbered up, she headed next door to where Yue and Bane were. She knocked on the door and waited for a response.

 

---

 

An hour before the sun would even cast its light on the land, Koi was up and about, rousing any Agnimitra who didn't have the stench of alcohol on their breath. There were about three that she found on her way to get Shadow up. First she found lying curled up on the grass with their jacket as a pillow was a young Agnimitra, about 100, with the power of fire. Second was a woman around 300 with wind powers, laying against some drunken men. Third was an older man, at least 900 years in age, that slept slouched in a chair who had earth powers. It seemed like a good line-up when you added in Koi's water and Shadow's dark powers.

Shadow, we're leaving, Koi alerted the other, walking up to the front door of the others, knocking on it to let Shadow know that she was out there waiting.

[Dragonhatchling]

Shadow was half up already by the time someone had knocked on her door. She guessed it was Koi as the other had notified her of the plan to leave. A few moments after that knock, Shadow opened the door, stepping out and closing it behind her. She noticed that Koi had rounded up more Agnimitra. None of which she recognized at first glance, though the youngest girl did seem faintly familiar but Shadow couldn't put a name. Probably a oncer... She thought, trying to remember when that one was seen. Putting that aside, Shadow spoke mostly to no one but did somewhat hope Koi felt the same. "Hopefully this won't be any harder than it has to be... they're not- well Arasi wasn't that stupid until this stunt." Shadow grumbled, the usual odd air around her coming back. Faint shadows still flitted about her but she ignored that.

[tai_kouen26]

Yue watched as the exhausted Bane kicked off his boots before promptly flopping down on the bed before him. He smiled slightly, rather relieved that the other was so exhausted. Though part of him did feel a bit guilty about thinking that as a good thing. Regardless, he had things to do right now. Making sure that the other was sound asleep and wouldn't be waking up anytime soon, he quickly and quietly made his way out of the window of the room. First things first he would have to find a dark, quietly place to change so he could get the "materials" for his weapons. Luckily for him, there was an alley way about a block away from the inn they were staying at. He made his way to the end of the pitch black alley way, looking around to make sure none was looking, or for that matter, there, before quickly changing into his dragon form and quickly plucking a scale off of himself before changing back. He sighed, staring at the large, thick scale for a moment. It resembled obsidian in its color and shine, but it was stronger and sturdier than the glass-like material. He stared at it for a moment before pausing in though. The metallic object looked much too...scale-like. He feared the black smith would be rather suspicious if they were given something like this. He thought for a moment before an idea popped into his head. He concentrated for a moment, letting his lightning pool into his hands before letting it strike the large scale, melting it a bit to change its form. Now it was a bit more vague. He smiled slightly before setting off to go find what he needed. He found what he needed a few minutes later, stopping to request what he needed of the blacksmith. However, when he handed the man the "metal" that he wanted his weapons to made of, the man gave him a rather odd look. But as soon as Yue handed him money, he felt no need to question the materials further and quickly set off to work. A couple of hours later, Yue's patience was reward with his two newly made Jian, blades that he had used in the past and were most familiar with. He surveyed them for a moment, a small smile cracking on his lips before he looked back at the man. He thanked him before setting back on his way to the inn. He quickly climbed the window, making his way back up to his shared room with Bane. He sighed, safely in the room again. He looked over, finding that Bane was still fast asleep. Well, at least he hadn't disturbed the other dragon. He was glad that there were two beds in the room, looking relieved. He looked back down at his new weapons, before picking both up. He dug into the pockets of his pants, retrieving the two tassels he had salvaged from his original Jian he had received from his father, tying them onto the hilts. He yawned after this was done, deciding that bed was the best option at the moment. He kicked off his own boots, slipping out of his shirt before climbing into bed, quickly falling asleep.

 

The next morning, Yue was up and early, dressing himself for today. He had his boots on and his weapons hanging off of his belt and was about to redo his shirt when there was a knock on the door. He blinked before moving to go answer it. He peeked out of the door when he cracked a bit to see who it was, finding that Arasi was waiting at the door. "Good morning" he greeted the smaller female, bowing slightly and his shirt still unbuttoned for the moment.

[Kira1]

"G-goodmorning," Arasi greeted, eyes glancing down at the others chest before back to his face, "are you guys ready? We should get going soon."

No doubt Koi would be moving to find them before sunrise, trying to catch them before they had a chance to run. And although flying would be faster, they would go by car today so then that way they wouldn't have to use their energy flying like yesterday. This place seemed like a big city so there was bound to be a car dealership, but she would need to ask someone who worked here where it was.

 

---

 

"At this point, we're not bringing them back alive," Koi stated calmly, hardly caring about the seriousness of what she just said. The three who followed after Koi and Shadow remained silent, knowing their place.

When they reached one of the large empty courtyards, Koi changed into her dragon and took into the sky. The other three Agnimitra followed after her as they headed off to take care of the ones who escaped last night.

[KaidaShade]

Bane was still out for the count when Arasi knocked, but he was a surprisingly light sleeper and the sound woke him. He looked up blearily and blinked the sleep from his eyes. "Alright. Five minutes, and I'll be ready." He sat up and swung his legs over the side of the bed, spending a moment waking himself up before standing up and stretching his aching muscles. "I hope you don't plan on flying again." He remarked, yawning. "If we are caught, I would rather have the energy to fight."

[tai_kouen26]

Yue managed to catch the small glance the other had made, his lips twitching for a moment as if he wanted to smile. But he quickly recomposed himself. His ear twitched a bit when he heard shuffling behind him, giving a glance at Bane who had just woken up from a seemingly deep sleep. He watched the other as he spoke for a moment before turning back Arasi. "Give us a few minutes and we shall be ready to move out," he repeated. He scowled slightly, but you only notice this if you knew his expressions well enough, at the mention of flying. That would be a bad choice after last night. He agreed with Bane's statement, waiting for an answer from Arasi.
