2010-01-30 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: She modded and started for it, pulling the dress off slowly, he seeing her rump before she disapeared.

2010-01-30 [The Horseman]: Irvine shrugged at the image he had just seen, it didn't bother him much since it was alot nicer then the images he had just seen in his dreams.

2010-01-30 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: She bathred then realised her clothing wasn't clean so she looked around for a towel or robe, blushing.

2010-01-30 [The Horseman]: Ivine sent one of his servants into the bathing area with a fresh set of clothes for the lady. The servant smiled politely at the lady and then handed her the clothes, "Here you go young miss." The servant smiled as she left the room and then walked past Irvine and bowed politely, "Thank you," he said politely as she passed by him.

2010-01-30 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: She nodded and dryed herself before dressing, returning, arms crossedover her stomach. "thank you for the cloths..." she sat on the ground with a sigh, rubbing her wet hair

2010-01-30 [The Horseman]: "Think nothing of it, the lady was more then happy to help another woman, especially since she usually has to deal with me and I don't pay much attention to her nor does my brother," he said with a smirk. The lady was standing just behind him with her hands on her hips starring at him angrily.

2010-01-30 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: She blinks a bit. "who not? She seems like a very nice woman and I think she can kick your butt." laughs a bit and sits back.

2010-01-30 [The Horseman]: Irvine looked at her with a gaze, he disappeared and then reappeared, a small thin like tracing across her face and as a small drop of blood dripped down. "We'll see who can harm who lady," he said with a bit of cold in his voice.

2010-01-31 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: She shot to her feet with a gasp. "you brute! It was a joke!" she rushed past him, pushing him assize before tending to the wound carefully.

2010-01-31 [The Horseman]: He grinned and then looked at her cheek, the mark had disappeared and there wasn't even a faint line where it had been. "Whats the matter never been around a ninja before?" he laughed as his eyes finally showed themselves as being red with three tear drop dots rotating in them.

2010-01-31 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: (fucking naruto? Really?!) she scoffed and turned, leaving the tent, she headed for the edge of the camp.

2010-01-31 [The Horseman]: (its not really the fact that he can use those types of techniques like they can he has trained his eyes to let him enter his enemies mind and make them see things he wants them to see, and he dyed his eyes red with the dots)

2010-01-31 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: (it's still naruto. I'm not saying dontvrp i'm just saying, couldn't be more creative with the eyes? Really? Sorry naruto bugs me cause of kids at school.

2010-01-31 [The Horseman]: (I can change it give me a second) Irvines eyes went from a vibrant red to a soft glowing green with no pupil, his full retina glowed with a power that most of his men had known but never seen.

2010-01-31 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: She stared at Jim and her head tilted before she slowly left the tent, looking around the camp, her blue eyes bright in the dark night.

2010-01-31 [The Horseman]: Irvine appeared infront of her and looked her in the eye, "You shouldn't walk around here at night, its not safe please return to the tent, I have things to take care of so please return to the tent my lady," he said. A smile upon his face as he snapped his fingers and two guards appeared behind her, one on either side of her as they awaited her so they could escort her back to the tent safely.

2010-01-31 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: She looked at them all and gave a tilt of her head. "why is it not safe? And why does my walking interfere with whatever you have to do tonight" she folded her hands infront of herself, her blue eyes stairing right into him, her head tilted still, her golden locks falling a bit into her face.

2010-01-31 [The Horseman]: Irvines eyes pierced deep into her mind, "Sleep," he whispered calmly, the guards calmly caught the woman as she feel fast asleep. "Take her there and make sure she doesn't leave that protective barrier, there is enough evil sneaking around here I don't need something like that on my hands." The guards nodded and rushed the woman back to the tent, placing her inside on one of the bunks placed for her.

2010-01-31 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: As she collapsed, a golden light shone from her as bright as the sun and it burned the hands of the guards lightly, getting more intense if they gripped her to hard. Her voice spoke clearly in his mind. "you best not do that to me again boy. I prefer your brother. He is more of a gentleman. I will sleep to please you, but not for long."

2010-01-31 [The Horseman]: Irvine glared at the woman, "Don't tempt me to end you, I have more pressing concerns now that the night has fallen, so I suggest that you return or else I shall throw you out of my camp to let the beasts have their way with you. And believe me, they would have their way with you no matter what happened to your body, I'm more kind a creature," he said with venom in his voice. The guards grabbed the girl, the light couldn't hurt these men, not with their regenerative capabilities.

2010-01-31 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: She was still asleep but speaking in his mind clearly. "you will not end me, you can't." before she blocked her mind from him.

2010-02-01 [The Horseman]: Irvine glared at her, "I'll deal with you later," he said as he disappeared towards some other tents at the other end of the camp.

2010-02-01 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: She slept half the night before waking, standing, streaching, looking around the tent.

2010-02-01 [The Horseman]: Irvine looked around cautiously, and then entered another tent, upon entering he was greeted by his company commanders and company first sergeants. "Good evening men, how are things?" he asked calmly as he sat down in his chair.

2010-02-01 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: She looked around the tent then went to the flap that looked outside and watched the sky

2010-02-01 [The Horseman]: Irvine looked around at his newest company commanders, most of them had just been promoted. Which showed in the various scars all over their bodies, "Well gentleman I have some bad news I'm afraid, we are going to have to perform the ritual again for alot of these men." Many of the commanders looked around in fear, "But sir how many do you think we will need to perform the ritual on?" one asked he was a younger captain his voice sounding somewhat timid.

2010-02-02 [You Can't Save Me]: Hawkmoon was strolling through the forest after the storm had cleared. He stopped as he heard a rustle to his right. He slowly drew his swords, a grin appeared on his face. He heard another to his left. "Bandits show yourself!" as he finished his sentence an arrow shot at his head was deflected by one of his massive rune blades. The black metal rang, almost in a mocking tone. Then 12 bandits sprang from the trees. "give up the blades, then leave." what seemed to be the leader spoke. Hawkmoon grinned, "more threatening beings have tried to take these swords from me, none have succeeded. Even if they had, their power is too great for your pathetic excuse for a soul could handle." with this the leader drew his weapons and lunged. As quick as the attack came was how quickly the rune swords both, were shoved into his chest. a screeching chorus rang through the air as the blades' thirst was awakened. Sucking the poor soul into the purgatory of the blades. Hawkmoon began his frenzy, reaping the souls of all the bandits, save for one. Hawkmoon let him survive. Kneeling on the ground in fear, the crying bandit pleaded with him. "leave this land, and warn anyone of your kind to turn his back and never return. Or you will suffer the same fate." with that the bandit turned slipped in the mud got up and ran. Hawkmoon watched his progress with a grin. His power was pulsing, senses heightened.

2010-02-02 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: (dude... You were totally in the stronghold.. WTF?)

2010-02-02 [You Can't Save Me]: (oh well, i didnt wanna back track that far lol i needed some action to introduce my character anyways)

2010-02-02 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: (ehhh...)

2010-02-03 [The Horseman]: (whenever you two are done, can we get back to the rp?)

2010-02-03 [You Can't Save Me]: (well then forget just set me up to come back in where i was)

2010-02-03 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: (well neither of you are participating in the stronghold that's why I have the damn medic girl right now but irvine is being an ass)

2010-02-03 [You Can't Save Me]: Hawkmoon wanted a drink.....(lol)

2010-02-04 [The Horseman]: (Irvine is being hunted) Irvine sat and looked at this new commander, "Well to put it bluntly about 60% of the troops we have, but I'm not going to sugar coat it." He said as his reply, all of the commanders and first sergeants started murmuring amongst themselves. One first sergeant spoke out, "But sir the last time we had ten times as many men when we did the ritual and look at how many we have now," he cried. Irvine just stared at him, "Yes I know that very well, who do you remember performing the ritual on you?" he said with a bit of venom in his voice.

2010-02-04 [You Can't Save Me]: Hawkmoon approached Irvine's encampment.

2010-02-05 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: Tge medic called upon a great horse, she leaping up on tge back, taking off out of the camp, racing out past hawkmoon

2010-02-07 [The Horseman]: While Irvine was in his meeting his brother patrolled the night, not being seen by anyone or anything. Even for his size Victor was a shadow and nothing more, not even when he was walking right behind some of his men they didn't even notice the huge hulking mass behind them walking.

2010-02-07 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: Victor would see the medic girl trying to escape the camp via horseback, she gripping the steeds mane with soft fingers.

2010-02-07 [The Horseman]: Victor sighed and then appeared infront of the horse, holding out one arm and stopping it dead in its tracks. Catching the girl with the other arm as she flew over the horses head, "And where do you think you are going?" he asked as he held her roughly ten feet off the ground.

2010-02-08 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: She gasped and screamed in fright, trying to pull away from him. "away from this godforsaken camp!"

2010-02-08 [The Horseman]: Victor sighed and ordered a couple of men to take the horse back to the stables. As the men grabbed hold of the stallion, he disappeared and then reappeared infront of the commanders tent. "Stay put, the night is no place for someone like you," he said sternly.

2010-02-08 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: She held tightly onto him. "I am never kept indoors on a night like this! It's like a prison here! Are you trying to kill me?"

2010-02-08 [The Horseman]: "On the contrary, I'm trying to keep you from getting killed now either stay here, or else something bad will happen," as he said this he tossed her lightly onto the bed made for her and he walked out of the tent.

2010-02-08 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: She was on his heals in an instant, followin him put- no. You don't understand. If I can't be outside, I will get sick, and I will die, an that will kill everyone I've ever healed. You need to listen instead of talk all the time."

2010-02-08 [You Can't Save Me]: Hawkmoon heard a woman scream from the encampment and his walk turned into a sprint. He saw Irvine standing infront of a tent, talking to what seemed to be a very unhappy woman.

2010-02-09 [The Horseman]: Victor turned around with a glare deep in his eyes, "You wish to be tainted by evil? THEN STAY HERE!" his voice was harsh and cold. He saw a stranger approaching the camps perimeter, he waved his hand and ten of his men appeared infront of the man, weapons draw and at the ready. The sergeant asked sternly, "What business do you have here? Speak quickly."

2010-02-09 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: She frowned at him. "you are a bufoon. My lifesource... Is the moon and sun. I die without it."

2010-02-09 [The Horseman]: His glare would have set her on fire, "Do not test the dark force which you cannot comprehend, now you can survive until the break of dawn." He clamped the doors shut, and put a spell on them to not open unless he or his brother touched them. He then opened a small window in the roof to let the moonlight shine in.

2010-02-09 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: She snarled amd kicked the door before stairing up through the window, plotting her escape. She didn't like it here

2010-02-09 [The Horseman]: Victor looked around and then saw that the man who had been approaching the camp was being withheld from entering by his men. He sighed at least his men knew their job and how to do it, not to mention they could follow orders.

2010-02-10 [You Can't Save Me]: "i wish for no trouble, but i would suggest release the woman, she looks distressed" Using his better judgement Hawkmoon kept his blades sheathed, not willing to reap the souls of what he percieved were his allies.

2010-02-10 [The Horseman]: Victor appeared behind a tent just a few feet from the small group, his eyes were fixed on the stranger. He over heard the Sergeant say, "Leave now or I will be forced to make you leave, the woman is in no danger if she stays in the tent. These nights here are filled with dangerous demons and evil souls ready to corrupt those who walk among the living."

2010-02-11 [You Can't Save Me]: "then let her come with me, i am no stranger to these things. I am well-studied in the dark arts... perhaps i can be of assistance at least, i can collaborate with your spell casters to ward them off. I want nothing to help, please..." he lifted his hands to show he has no mal-intent. "Victor, let me help" speaking over the sergeant's shoulder. "i know too well what hunts you"

2010-02-12 [The Horseman]: Victor glared and then appeared infront of the man, "You know nothing! Leave this place, or I shall send you to a place none has survived save for myself!" He turned on his heel, the men parting like the Red sea without even a hint of hesitation.

2010-02-12 [You Can't Save Me]: "you are foolish, release the girl" He remained stone still. Midnight circled overhead, a single cry eminated through the night sky. "why are you so hesitant for help? There is no need for you to fight every battle alone. I have seen more things than you think i have, you see, i bare the curse of immortality as well. With these swords i have slain gods and demons alike, some were as arrogant as you, but i see a strength in you that i have rarely come across. Let us put aside our differences and join together. I have seen chaos, i have seen what you have seen, do you really think you are the only one who as survived it?"

2010-02-12 [The Horseman]: Victor appeared infront of him again, his hand gripping the mans face and holding him up in the air. "Speak another word and you die!" his voice roared and his glare was staring at the man with killer intent.

2010-02-13 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: The woman appeared and she glared at victor, hand touching his arm... He didn't feel much.. It was her, yes, but more of an image of her. "let him go, victor. He did nothing wrong, he wants to help me and I'm sure you do not want ne around longer then you have to."

2010-02-13 [The Horseman]: Victor pulled his arm back and threw the man easily a hundred yards, "I SAID LEAVE!!!!!!!!! WHELP!!!" With that he turned on his heel and headed for the tent.

2010-02-13 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: The immage followed him."you have anger that needs to be controlled." (seriously... This is insane.)

2010-02-14 [The Horseman]: Victor opened the door of the tent, "You dare to judge me? You have no right to do any such thing now either you stay here or I can leave your corpse to be used as a host for one of them waiting just outside. MAKE YOUR CHOICE!" he shouted, his voice booming through out the entire camp.

2010-02-14 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: "I am in the tent you idiot. That's a projection. I am simply telling you to calm down. Idiot"

2010-02-15 [The Horseman]: Victor stood infront of her, "I am in the tent as well moron, perhaps you should learn to read."

2010-02-15 [You Can't Save Me]: Hawkmoon lightly dusted of his cloak calmly rising to his feet. He removed it and folded it nicely and placed it by a tree. he then called midnight to him from the skies. He landed gently upon his arm. then as Hawkmoon looked into midnight's eyes the bird slowly disappeared. Hawkmoon looked up and removing his great broad blades from his back and fastening them to his belt. He then spread his arms and when he did great black feathery wings pertruded from his back and with that he leaped from the ground soaring over the area he located the camp and dove like a bird of prey landing on the sergeant crushing him to one miserable heap of meat. Both swords he drew each one glowing with a distinctive darkess, they both seemed to be sucking the light right out of the air. [Victor, your arrogance has cost one man his life] speaking telepathically, [NOW, RELEASE THE GIRL OR I SHALL TAKE HER BY FORCE]

2010-02-15 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: [Voctor, you are royally getting on my nerves. You need to calm your shit down or I will close this rp permenantly. I am sick right now, I have family issues, and to top it off, my mental state is going down hill. So calm your shit down.]

2010-02-15 [The Horseman]: Victor looked into the sky and then started melding into the earth, his body completely disappearing beneath the cold hard ground. [If you want her COME AND GET HER] as he dragged the girl underneath with him.

2010-02-16 [You Can't Save Me]: [YOU FOOL]HawkMoon shot into the sky directly above the encampment and with both swords pointed out and down, two beams of darkness shot from their tips he spun in the air encircling the camp in a dark flame he then called an age old magic, something he doesnt remember learning but has been ingrained in his memory, he called upon the earth elementals and their leader, communicating across plains of existence through chanting. Immediately the girl was pulled from Victor's grasp and launched into the air where Hawkmoon caught her in his arms. he had already released his swords to let them to their work. "Hold on" he said calmly. With that he flew higher. watching his runeblades as they sped like missles to their target, the center of the circle. when they connected with the ground. all within the dark circle and the earth below was drained of its life. after they completed their task they returned to their master hovering calmly in front of him he took them one at a time and sheathed them on his hips. He then flew to a place where he knew the girl would be safe.

2010-02-17 [The Horseman]: Irvine walked calmly out of the tent and then looked up at the sky. He sighed heavily and then disappeared and reappeared standing perfectly in mid-air right infront of the stranger. "Release the woman please, I have no need to fight someone like you, especially since it would prove to be a quick fight anyways. So please return the girl and no harm will be done, I swear it," he said calmly his eyes closed and his arms patiently crossed across his chest.

2010-02-17 [You Can't Save Me]: (unless you didnt notice i just destroyed you encampment and everything in it{including you}. if you wish to survive it somehow, that can be arranged as long as your character shows less aggression and is willing to stop splitting this rp in two)

2010-02-17 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: (otherwise I will shut it down for good.)

2010-02-17 [You Can't Save Me]: (i want this thing to survive all the others i know have been dead, for years)

2010-02-24 [You Can't Save Me]: Hawkmoon flew the girl safely back to the strong hold and set her down at the front gates. "you're free to go."

2010-02-24 [The Horseman]: (You merely set a ring of fire around the encampment, the tents and everyone are fine read your own writing dumbass. Secondly you couldn't touch my character if I let you, and I have been being very nice by not actually killing the both of your characters which mine can with no problem.) Irvine followed them patiently, landing on the ground next to the gates and walked infront of the two people, "Are you willing to return to the encampment or face certain death in this world?"

2010-02-24 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: The medic girl looked at him. "I am home I do not need to go back to your camp."  The leader of the stronghold stepped from the gates, stairing at him. "please depart from my land, I gave you the medics you asked for, leave my friend alone, and Sir Hawkmoon is currently residing here so he has no need to return." she spoke calmly with firm eyes.

2010-02-24 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: (please change your post)

2010-02-25 [The Horseman]: Irvine stared at the stranger, then cocked his head to the side, "Perhaps you seriously are delirious because I am not Victor, my brother is far bigger in size and strength but what I lack in strength...." he let his sentence trail off and disappeared back to his camp and looked around at everything returning to the way it was before. Then he disappeared and stood where he was before, "I make up for in my other skills, unlike a soul sucking leech like you."

2010-02-25 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: The leader of the stronghold speaks firmly "all who wish to fight need to leave my land."

2010-02-25 [You Can't Save Me]: "the only fighting i wish to do is on your behalf my lady" he gave a bow while shooting Irvine a glance. "i do not understand your aggression towards my willingness to help"

2010-02-26 [The Horseman]: Irvine shrugged, "Lets just say your matter of thinking will get you killed in a split second, trust me I've lived long enough to know on the battlefield that even a fraction of a seconds hesitation, can mean death."

2010-02-26 [You Can't Save Me]: "you think i don't know that? but i can't exactly play my part if i dont have a clue as to what the plan is. I have lived an eternity as well my friend, and have seen things most people should never see. We will go with you, but you need to let us know what is going on."

2010-03-03 [You Can't Save Me]: (hello?)

2010-03-06 [The Horseman]: Irvine sighed and then disappeared back to his camp, "Meet me at my tent when you are ready to understand ..." he said calmly.

2010-03-08 [You Can't Save Me]: Hawkmoon nodded and followed him to his tent

2011-10-10 [You Can't Save Me]: (is any one left?)

2011-10-10 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: (im always here)

2011-10-10 [The Horseman]: (I'm here)

2011-10-10 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: Shit just got to intense)

2011-10-11 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: .

2011-10-11 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: Alexandria entered the old, forgotten stronghold, her eyes drifting around. There had been war, bones of what use to be soldiers, in armor, lay around. She held back a shudder as she began to move throughout the stronghold. She walked on light feet, her firey hair flowing behind her as her sapphire eyes fell on a door, covered in deep, thick, long claw marks, but not breached, there were large stones that had fallen from the strongholds walls, blocking the doorways. She approached, hopping up on the stones, her bare feet made no noise as she moved to the door, she grabbed the large handle and drew back, it budged, just a little. She peered through the small opening, her eyes quisitive. She looked down at the stone and channeled her energy, the blue light wrapping around the stone. Her eyes narrowed and the stone moved, just a little. She gave a small panting breath before she opened the door a little further. She slipped her thin frame through the door, starting down a hallway, pausing as she saw a candle flicker. She moved carefully, peeking into the large room, she could tell it use to be the quarters and office of the strongholds commander, and then, she saw a figure, kneeling on the ground, sword tip in the stone, eyes closed, short, grey hair cradling the worn, weathered face. Her eyes went wide and she slowly approached, kneeling by the woman, she reached out a hand and laid it gently on the armored shoulder the woman wore, wolves deeply engraved into the metal. The woman did not move or speak. The sapphire eyed woman reached up and touched the cheek of the aged woman... She quickly withdrew her hand. The woman was cool, but still mildly warm... She had just passed on... Maybe simple minutes before... The sapphire eyed woman, quietly bowed her head in respect for this woman, lettin out a quivering breath, she began to prey.

2011-10-30 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: (hey darlin, no offense, but inwas trying to imply that the stronghold is in ruins, and the character that I posted with, was leading a small group of workers, but they have yet to start. You don't necessarily have to re-do your post but it didn't seem like you understood tho I do feel good that you did indeed reply.)

2011-10-31 [Kaos101]: (I knew what you were saying, and I know what was written. Tried to find a middle ground between the two. Let me reword it.) Jackson stood strong, his youth a glowing light among his rugged features. The stronghold he'd heard so much about was a broken, gray shell of what Jackson could only imagine it used to be. Jackson took a deep breath to swallow back any anxiety before continuing towards what had to be the main entrance. Half the main gate had been demolished, the other hanging as shattered pieces from the large metal fixtures that once secured reinforced them against any who attacked it. Slipping through a gap in the wreckage, Jackson crossed into the main atrium of the stronghold; what Jackson could only imagine as being a beautiful garden symbolizing victory and success was now a desolated ruin, the few specks of green dotting the field of dirt smothered by layers of dust from the clutter of work. Jackson shook his head in wonder of the once magnificent stronghold his mentor described before continuing his tour through the untouched parts of the stronghold.

2011-10-31 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: After her prayer, the woman laid the warrior in sheets, and proceeded to stitch them together with string from her own cloak and a shard of a quill pen. After the warrior was wrapped, the young girl moved in silence, blue light glowing around the warrior as she lifted her from the ground, walking with the warrior down the hallway, the girl carried the sword. She slipped herself through the small opening she made in the door, and lead the warrior out. She laid the warrior on the stone, setting the sword right beside her, she turned, looking at the dry ground. She could easily use her powers to dig a grave.. But this warrior deserved better. The young girl looked around, and found a half broken shovel that had seen many years of work. Today would be it's last. She broke ground, and began to dig with somber eyes. Jackson would be just barely able to hear the sounds of the dirt on metal as she worked. She wondered, what was this warriors name? Did she have a family? Where were they? How long had this warrior been waiting for salvation, only to die thinking there was none?

2011-10-31 [Kaos101]: Jackson focused on the sound. What was it? Metal clanking...someone working, maybe. Jackson turned this way and that to find the direction the sound was coming from. Towards the west, Jackson thought. He looked, but couldn't see any movement; hearing the noise again confirmed the direction. Jackson proceeded cautiously towards the source of the noise, aware that he was only a stranger here.

2011-10-31 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: She worked slowly but steadily, tossing small amounts of dirt over her shoulder, she began to hum a tune, that echoed through the ruins of the once proud stronghold. It would nearly feel as tho one was being drawn towards the tune. It was a sad melody, the girl using a hand to wipe sweat from her brow, her fiery locks falling around her face, she continued her job.

2011-10-31 [Kaos101]: The melody humming through the courtyard flowed with the rhythmic scuffling of metal through earth. In the silence, the song was almost hypnotizing. Jackson's curiosity took over. He continued through rising fog until he saw her. A young girl -couldn't be any older than he was- hard at work digging a long hole in the ground. Jackson quickly realized what she was doing. His wit came back to him as he approached. stopping a few yards at her side. He didn't know what to say.

2011-10-31 [The Horseman]: Victor walks around the woods calmly, his giant sword barely moving around on his back. His body mass seeming too big for the small area between trees, his mind wandering around reaching out and touching all manner of living creatures in the vicinity. He continues to walk along the small deer path he happened upon, letting his eyes wander through the canopy of trees he happens to look up at the side walls of a stronghold. Willing his body in the direction of the castle he begins to float on the air, his mind holding him aloft just above the canopy of the forest he'd be walking through for days.

2011-11-01 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: (I really wish you'd pick someone else, victor caused me to dispize this RP.)

The young girl jumped and looked at Jackson, stopping in he motions, she spoke softly "if this is your land.. I am just burying the fallen warrior.. Nothing more.." she looked down and continued to dig.

2011-11-01 [Kaos101]: (Wasn't sure if we were bringing back old characters or I would have brought back Kaos) Jackson shook his head at her statement, but realized she wasn't paying attention to him. He looked up at the wrapped bundle sitting atop the stone in front of him. "It is quite alright. I am only a stranger. You...that is a lot of digging for one person. Would you like some help?" He hoped he wouldn't offend her by asking, but he didn't know what else to do.

2011-11-01 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: (Ive been trying to keep from it. Shado is obsolete)

Her sapphire eyes drifted to him and she gave a slow nod. "you might need to look for a shovel... I found this one but as you can see, it's pretty well worn.." she spoke softly before tossing another pile if dirt to the side. She let out a quiet breath, not even near halfway done with the hole. She spoke, almost to herself "How long.. Had this warrior waited? And for what? Did she expect to be saved...? I wish I knew her story.."

2011-11-03 [Kaos101]: Jackson figured the question wasn't aimed towards him. He looked around the field of dirt before starting towards the nearest collection of stone, not sure where a shovel might be. He couldn't help but wonder about the girl's question as he walked.

2011-11-04 [The Horseman]: Victors body floated up to the lowest part of the cliff face near the stronghold. He let his breath out and then grabbed onto the rock with his hands and began to climb, slowly and steadily. His armor and weapons making gently "Clink-clink-clink" noises as he eased his way up the face of the rock slowly and surely. His pace easy to keep and yet progressive at the same time.

2011-11-04 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: The girl continued to dig, watching Jackson as he walled to find a shovel. She looked back down at the hole, and began to hum that same slow tune as she tossed minuscule dirt piles away from the hole. She let out a breath and paused, wiping her brow with the back of her hand.

2011-11-07 [Kaos101]: After kicking through a pile of rubble, Jackson pound the business end of a broken, rusted shovel. Better than nothing. Jackson ripped it from beneath two large beams of wood before carrying it back to where the girl was working. He took position opposite her and without word began helping her dig.

2011-11-07 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: Her eyes shifted to him, black spiderwebbing into them for a breif moment. She watched him then continued to dig. She wore no armor, nor did age carry a blade. Her curvaceous figure was hidden beneath a tunic and mildly baggy pants made of leather, her nearly bare feet simply holding wraps around the ball of her foot and the heal. Her hands looked like they had never worked a day in their life, and were mildly red from the rubbing of the splintered wood against the soft flesh. She spoke, in the voice of angels, after a few long minutes. "what brings you here?" were the soft words from her lips as her eyes stayed on the work at hand.

2011-11-07 [Kaos101]: Jackson threw down away his shovel load before looking up at her." My sensei spoke so much about this place. He spoke of magnificent battles that took place here. I had to come and see it for myself. I didn't think it would have changed so much." He said before digging in, kicking the shovel hard into the packed earth.

2011-11-07 [The Horseman]: Victor's brow was covered in sweat, his breathing heavy but even and controlled while he continued to climb slowly up the face of the mountain. He finally is able to get one hand over the very top lip of the mountain face, using the momentum of swinging back and forth he jumps up onto the top of ledge. He stands up fully and looks at the castle infront of him, looming over him easily ten times his height.

2011-11-07 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: Alexandria gave a quiet nod as she continued to work, panting very quietly as she worked. "I heard grand stories.. About a leader.. That could not be defeated... The stories say.. She called upon the moon and the children of it-- the wolves... To give her power... To help her and her soldiers.. And together, they ruled.." she tossed another shovelful over her shoulder, before he looked at the wrapped up body. "she had wolves engraved on her armor.... The great leader of this stronghold.. Has finally fallen.. But by no hands of others..."

2011-11-08 [Kaos101]: (Interesting...) Jackson just calmly listened as he focused on taking even breaths while he worked. The job was passing progressively faster as they worked together. Jackson stood up and looked at her again, wiping the sweat from his brow." I'm sorry, I should introduce myself. You can call me Jackson. Everyone else does." He said with a small bow of his head and a smile.

2011-11-08 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: Her eyes lifted to him and she stuck the shovel in the ground, leaning over the grave, she offered her hand "I am Alexandria. It's nice to formally meet you." she said softly, offering a small smile to him as she held out the pale, slender hand. There wasn't much longer to dig now that he had started to help. She was greatful for that, in the very least.

2011-11-08 [Kaos101]: Jackson took her hand and shook it with as much grace he could muster into his sore muscles. Without another word, mostly because was lost for what to say to this strange girl, he returned to the task at hand.

2011-11-08 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: She watched him for a long moment before she returned to work, panting very lightly. A few more minutes passed and she was pleased. She turned towards the wrapped, armored warrior, lifting her, Alexandria slipped into the hole, she laid the warrior down and let out a breath, watching the warrior, she slipped out of the hole, and knelt next to it, she began to prey.

2011-11-08 [The Horseman]: Victor breathed deeply as he rolled his shoulders trying to relax his muscles. Holding himself up straight he looks over the area around the castle and then he focuses all of his energy into an anti-gravity burst under his feet and then leaps up high enough to just barely grab a hand hold on the ledge of the rampart.

2011-11-09 [Kaos101]: Jackson waited patiently, he wasn't sure what for, as Alexandria prayed. He wasn't really a religious man and didn't understand how people prayed, but he was told that if someone acted this way, they should be given time. He figured it was only right to oblige. Jackson's focus was disrupted by a noise not too far off. A noise...from what? There weren't many animals around here. What could it be? Jackson chose to stay alert as he waited for Alexandria to finish.

2011-11-09 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: After her prayer was done, she let out a breath, standing, she turned to the pile of dirt, and lifted her hands, they, glowing a calm blue, the dirt began to trickle in over the warrior. If she could do this.. Why had she not dug the grave the same way? The silent answer? Respect for the warrior. After the dirt was settled in the grave, Alexandria let out a breath, and lifted a few stones, piling them in a small pyramid like shape on the head of the grave, she gave a smile and whispered "rest well, great warrior."

2011-11-09 [Kaos101]: Jackson lowered his head in the silence, paying his respects to the mysterious warrior he had just helped to bury. After a moment, he decided to break the eerie silence." So, did you come out here just to bury this...this warrior?" He asked as politely as his light growl of voice would allow him.

2011-11-10 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: She spoke softly to him as she moved away from the grave, closer to him "I heard stories.. Of a great stronghold.. I remember hearing the stories as a child.. My mother told me about this place.. I vowed to find it one day.. But it saddens me.. To see a once great place.. In ruins.. And to find.. This warrior.. I just.. I don't know her.. Or her story.. But I felt for her... She was.. Still warm when I found her.." she tore her eyes away from the grave and gave him a sad smile.

2011-11-11 [Kaos101]: Jackson nodded and walked to her. He felt it best not to inquire how she managed to lift a mound of dirt with her thoughts...or however she did it. Things like that were always his sensei's expertise, not his." It's a shame such an amazing legacy had to come to an end before we ever got here."

2011-11-11 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: "I agree" she said softly as she watched the mound of dirt before she turned to look at the once great fortress. Her eyes wandered over it and she spoke a thought, tho she didn't seem to realize it. "We could rebuild it..." it was nearly a whisper as she stared at the once strong walls. "we could bring it back to its former glory.."

2011-11-11 [Kaos101]: "Rebuild it?" Jackson wasn't a mason and he didn't think this girl was up for carrying stones. The thought of having his own kingdom banished any worry he had." You're right, we could. Where should we start?"

2011-11-11 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: Her eyes continued to stare up at the stronghold, and she took a deep breath. She looked to where she had found the warrior, saw the stones that had fallen from the rooftop. Her hands extended, and the blue light began to glow around them, aswell as one of the large stones. Her eyes spiderwebbed black and black leaked into her firey locks. The stone began to lift, and she moved her hands, bringing it to the roof line, it settled in its rightful place, the magic seeming to seal it there, as it had been years ago. "there.." she whispered softly.

2011-11-11 [The Horseman]: Victors huge mass was easily pulled up onto the rampart, he didn't expect to find what he found on the other side of the wall. What he saw was ruins of what had been a mighty fortress, not the sight he was thinking he would find when he returned here after years away from it.

2011-11-13 [Kaos101]: A good mason she would make. Jackson looked at her with an astonished look." That was...really good. If that was you. Did you do that? How did you do that?" Jackson couldn't help but poke her brain. This was the second time already she managed to magically levitate something, this time more impressive than the first. Jackson was beginning to think he was a bit out of his league.

2011-11-13 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: She let out a quiet breath and looked to him. "I've been able to do things like that.. Since I was little... Every woman in my family can do it.. I don't know what it is.." she spoke softly "Sirens don't usually have powers other than that of their lore.." that's why he was drawn towards her. She was a siren. That's why her humming called to him, pulled him closer.

2011-11-14 [Kaos101]: Jackson scratched the back of his neck as he considered what he should do. She would have the place rebuilt by the time he walked to the broken building. He couldn't look like a lame horse in front of a girl like this. "Well...that's very impressive. I would use my powers-"he needed to come up with some powers-"but it would mean so much more if we used old-fashioned elbow grease. Don't you think?"

2011-11-14 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: She listened to him and nodded a little "I understand... But these stones... I can't lift them.. And I don't want to use new stones.. It wouldn't be the same.." she said softly, looking to him, giving him a small smile.

2011-11-15 [Kaos101]: Jackson smiled wide in return." Then just leave the heavy stuff to me, and you can just tell me where you'd like everything to go. Of course I'm sure there are plenty of things around here to dirty your hands with that don't require as much heavy lifting." He said as he began a brisk walk towards their first construction site, looking back and slowing to make sure she followed.

2011-11-15 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: She watched him and nodded "if you need me to, I can seal them in place so we don't have to make any sort of solution to do so." she said to him as she began to gather up metal scraps from the ground, moving them into a pile near one of the walls. She was stronger than she let on... But she didn't quite trust him yet.. She wasn't about to show him what she could really do. She began to drag a large piece of metal, wincing as age uncovered an armored skeleton that had obviously been crushed by this piece of metal. "Gods.. Bless these souls.." she whispered.

2011-11-16 [The Horseman]: Victor took in the whole scene that was laid out before his eyes as he stood there on the rampart. He sighed and bowed his heavy head, the many souls that had died here would not be forgotten. He didn't even flinch as he dropped off the edge of the rampart and landed some fifty feet below with a tremendous thundering clamor of armor clinking and the earth under him quivering under his weight.

2011-11-16 [Kaos101]: Jackson thought he heard something, but figured it must have been from the cacophonous scratching of the metal against the dirt and patches of stone as Alexandria dragged it with her. Something came to his mind. Besides the name, he didn't know anything about this girl. Why was he suddenly so trusting? Even as beautiful as she is, he would not have fallen so quickly for the girls in his village. If a man wasn't careful the wrong woman could leave him dazed or beaten in an alley with his coinpurse nabbed. But she was nice. Her voice wasn't a hiss or scratch like the barmaids and whores back home. Her voice was relaxing and smooth. What would it hurt to show off a little? As they arrived at the site they would begin construction, Jackson cracked his knuckles." Okay, boss. How did you want it to look?"

2011-11-17 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: Her eyes travled to him and she looked to the stone. "it looks like it was on top, one of the guard stones for lookouts. Fit it on top evenly between those two." she pointed up to the roof.

2011-11-17 [The Horseman]: Victor walked around the inside of the stronghold, not listening mostly just feeling what had happened in the place he had left so long ago. He closed his eyes and remembered the days when he had been there and it was full of life. The hustle and bustle of the local villagers and soldiers alike running amuck to keep the stronghold in top shape.

2011-11-17 [Kaos101]: Jackson nodded and crouched down, digging his hands into the dirt to grip the edges of the stone. Jackson gripped hard to gain just leverage against this smoothed down rock. With a grunt, his muscles flexed and bulged with the strain as he lifted the man-sized boulder, using his momentum to swing the boulder up and over his head. With a few slow steps he moved into position by the door. He wasn't the best thrower, but he couldn't reach the top of the gate by standing. Stepping back with his left leg, he shifted the boulder in his hands so as to turn in back on itself, then thrust with his left hand, sending the boulder up to fall with a hard smack against the stone of the lookout tower. He turned to her with a smile, all the while nursing his wrist behind his back. Owww that smarts!" Anymore stones? We could fit a few more up there."

2011-11-17 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: As the stone landed, the blue light she created, shone around it, moving it to be even, she sealed it there. "plenty more." she said with a smile as she continued to drag more metal into the pile. Her hands were now scraped up from the rusted chunks. She let out a soft breath and pointed to several more fallen stones. "there" she said softly. Had she ever worked? Any day of her life? She was so petite, her hands smoothe as the day she was born.

2011-11-18 [Kaos101]: The second stone came a little easier than the first. Keeping his momentum going, he went one stone at a time, lifting them up over his head and walking them over to the tower before throwing them close as he could into position. The practice helped refresh his memory on techniques he had learned in past trainings and made the task run smoother. He rolled his shoulders loose as he continued, placing the third, fourth, and fifth stones. This was taking his energy much faster than he thought it would. Perhaps the fatigue of his journey is catching up to him. Lousy time for that.

2011-11-18 [The Horseman]: Victor heard the clattering of stone on stone, and slowly followed the source of the noise. Walking around a small bend he found two people next to a lookout tower. One a man, and the other a woman, one who looked familiar but not entirely. He saw the man throwing the stones up onto the tower, looking to be struggling slightly after only a few stones.

2011-11-18 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: As the fifth stone landed and sealed, she let down yet another large sheet of metal. She had a large pile by now. She walked calmly to him and ran a hand across his broad shoulders. Her hand was gentle. "you have travled a long distance. Come. You need to rest, at least for a little while."she walked to the door that had lead her to the fallen warrior. She pulled it open and beckoned him to follow her, but her eyes fell on the new man, and she froze, eyes going wide "Jackson.." she pointed to the other man that had rounded the corner.

2011-11-18 [Kaos101]: Jackson looked to where she pointed, seeing the man as well. He thought he had heard a commotion earlier. The man in was easily much larger than Jackson, and wore enough armor to cook himself. What did he want. He instinctively shifted into position to stay in between him and Alexandria, though a moment's thought made him realize that probably wasn't necessary.

2011-11-20 [The Horseman]: Victor walked forward a few more steps calmly, his arms swinging and his massive nine and three quarter feet tall frame moving with ease and grace unknown to someone his size. He calmly held his palms up symbolizing he wanted to no conflict, his giant sword "Deaths Swallow" was humming gently with magic and clanking against his armor once every step.

2011-11-21 [Kaos101]: Jackson wasn't about to let his guard down. His sensei told him not to judge without fully addressing the situations, but Jackson didn't plan on taking any chances with someone half again his size. Still, it wouldn't be good to make an enemy out of a potential ally. He let his arms straighten at his side, easing his posture as he waited for the giant to approach.

2011-11-21 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: Alexandria watched the large man cautiously as he lifted his hands, her muscles were tense as she stared at him, her eyes catching his every movement as black snaked its way into them. She called "what is your business here?" even speaking louder her voice was that of angels.

2011-11-21 [Firmina Tiberia]: A shadow crossed over the group, long wings, a diamond shaped head, a long tail. Dragon perhaps? Yes. The winged beast landed on the wall and roared at the small group. The chain around its neck jingled and a armored rider dropped from the back of the dragon. The armored woman landed on the wall and looked down at the group, her jaden eyes watching them. The dragon had landed surprisingly softly, the stones not even breaking under its sharp claws. Her breath could be seen as it left her helm.

2011-11-21 [The Horseman]: Victor eyed the beast the woman rode upon, thinking there were only a few creatures he hadn't ever killed. A dragon being on that very very short list, he was half tempted to take the creature down. His hand drifted up to the hilt of his sword as he turned to face the woman and her pet.

2011-11-21 [Firmina Tiberia]: The jaden eyes under the helm instantly shifted to him, and a bow was pointed at him in seconds, an arrow knotched, the dragon rider spoke calmly. "If you make a move towards him.." the rider spoke firmly, voice showing years of long, hard battle. "this arrow will be right between your eyes.." as she spoke the dragon rumbled a near growl in his chest. The mighty beast flared it's wings, it's golden eyes staying locked on the man as he touched his sword. Fire could be seen, as the dragon opened its mouth to growl, the chemicals that it spit to make the fire, lingering in its mouth. The beast was magnificent, in and of itself. It's rider bore armor of iron and steel, the helm having two large horns on either side that curved around towards the front of te helm.

2011-11-21 [Kaos101]: Jackson wasn't expecting to fight anyone all the way out here. And she sure as hell wasn't expecting all this! He didn't even think dragons actually existed, let alone think he would ever see one. His sensei told him he could handle anything, but Jackson wasn't so sure. He only had his twin short blades, sat nestled in the leather sheaths he kept strapped, one to each thigh. He didn't think they would be enough to take a beast like this. He kept as still as possible, hoping he wouldn't be noticed.

2011-11-22 [Firmina Tiberia]: The dragon looked at Jackson for a breif moment, making a gurgling sound with the chemicals in its throat before it spit them into the air, making them catch fire, it halted them, looking back at the large man. The woman with the bow, however, did not falter from her stance, staring at the giant man.

2011-11-22 [The Horseman]: Victor disappeared and reappeared standing in the air just infront of the rider. His body massive compared to hers while his hand stayed on his blade hilt. "I'd suggest sending your Pet somewhere other than here if you'd be so kind. Me and magical creatures tend not to get along all that well," he said calmly and in a voice that sounded almost ancient.

2011-11-22 [Firmina Tiberia]: The woman's eyes flared as she continued to point the arrow at his head. "He won't do anything unless I tell him to. Now, lower your arm. I am not here for a fight. I've been watching this stronghold, and seeing those two strive to rebuild it. Their determination has in a way, inspired me. I was but a lass when I first visited here. These walls have seen enough bloodshed." with that, her now lowered and in a flash, was nestled on her back once more. The great dragon made an almost trilling sound before it leaned it's massive head down, craning its neck, it nudged the rider who settled a hand on its nose. "he is not a pet, either." she stated "we were raised together in harmony. He is one of the last of his kind. Do not take that away from him." her voice was softer now as a gloved thumb ran over the scales on the dragons nose.

2011-11-22 [The Horseman]: Victor narrowed his eyes and the next thing that happened was a miracle. He was infront of the dragons mouth and then reached in and pulled a tooth from its mouth. Disappearing shortly afterward he reappeared on the ground where he had first been spotted at. "Pet, perhaps not but then again "he" as you put it isn't exactly friendly to people like me," he said calmly as he looked and studied the tooth in his hand. The blood from the tooth dripping off of his hand and onto the moist dirt at his feet. "Then again what would you expect between a mutated elf cyborg created for killing?" He asked calmly as he looked back up at the creature and its rider.

2011-11-22 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: Alexandria watched carefully, her eyes narrowing at the giant man. He had no reason to rip out one of the great dragons teeth... And it quite frankly, made her upset. She stepped back into the darkness of the hall and let her hair turn completely, her eyes doing the same, she was silent.

2011-11-22 [Kaos101]: Jackson had no idea there were people this incredible in the world. Some of these people could even give master a run for his money. Wait...where did Alexandria go? Jackson whipped his head around in search of where she was. He couldn't see her. Maybe she went and hid so she wouldn't be noticed. Jackson wondered what was stopping him from doing the same.

2011-11-22 [Firmina Tiberia]: The dragon didn't even make a sound, save for spitting a bit of fire into the air, to seal the wound. The rider continued to pet the dragon as the tooth momentarily burst into flames, the blood burning off, the tooth turning white as snow. "that tooth was bad in the first place, so I thank you." her hand continued to caress the dragons nose as she watched the giant. "he is plenty friendly as long as you aren't after his hide." she said to him, her eyes almost looking like they saw through him.

2011-11-22 [The Horseman]: Victor shrugged and then crushed the tooth into powder, then dusting his hands off he looked into the shadows where the younger female had stepped. His nose picking up magics on the air and his ear twitching, thinking a fight was about to come his way he didn't do anything other than stand there waiting for something to happen. "Perhaps, but better he wait someone else than near me, I have killed a great many things and there is a very short list of that which I have not. Dragon's being one of those three things," he said with a hint of joy in his mouth.

2011-11-22 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: Alexandria was gone. Her scent lingered, but otherwise there was nothing there. In all actuality, she had used her lore to sink into the shadows. She was not going to attack, unless it was needed. She jumped between the groups shadows before she landed in that of the dragons. She stayed there and waited. Dragons were beautiful creatures. She surely would not let this one get hurt for some.. Mans kill list.

2011-11-22 [The Horseman]: Victor rolled his shoulders gently, making them loosen the muscles before he spun around and threw his sword at the wall just next to the dragon. Purposely missing it and letting the blade sink into the stone wall easily like butter, he stood up straight to his full height and spoke. "Thats a sign of peace, I have no weapon powerful enough to harm your dragon," his words were sincere and yet had a venom to them. He almost spat at the thought of not going after the dragon, but the odds were four to one and definitely the three were easy, the dragon would be a formidable opponent and it would be ill advised to pursue such a foe with those odds.

2011-11-23 [Firmina Tiberia]: The rider nodded a small thanks to him before she leaned to the dragons nose, she breathed against it and the dragon trilled quietly to her before it flared it's wings and lifted into the sky, flying away, but not completely it landed in the field and used the three smaller claws on its main wing joint, to walk almost on all fours, it laid down, head raised to listen to the stronghold. Only now that the great beast was in the sun, could one see the beautiful mossy green and sand coloration of its scales. The rider watched them before leaping down off of the walls, her eyes turned to Jackson.

2011-11-23 [Kaos101]: Jackson gulped and stood up straight, trying to correct his already proper posture. What was he doing? He was no softie. He may not be in league with these heroes, but he wasn't going to let them turn his heart yellow. Keeping in mind he was dealing with a lady, he relaxed his position and smiled lightly to signal peace.

2011-11-23 [The Horseman]: Victor sniffed the air and could smell the ever familiar scent of fear. The stench was coming from the other male in the small little group gathered inside of the castles walls. He looked at the man and then held his left hand out, the sword he had thrown into the stone started to shake and quiver before it released itself from the wall and came whirling at Victor. He easily grabbed the blade in his hand and then spun it up onto his back in a very easy and fluid motion, his eyes never leaving the smaller man.

2011-11-23 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: Alexandria suddenly walked from the halls behind Jackson, her firey hair falling into her face, she stepped into the sunlight to stand in the middle of the group, looking to the newcomers, she spoke with confidence and power. "We are here to return this stronghold to its former glory. If that is not what you wish, then be gone."

2011-11-24 [Kaos101]: Jackson nodded, taking a few steps to stand closer to her, hoping that she might use her mind powers if they tried anything against him. "Yes. What she said. And you two have some nerve interrupting our business when we don't so much as know your names."

2011-11-24 [Firmina Tiberia]: The dragon rider spoke "I did not expect to be challenged when I landed. I would like to help. My name you ask? I'm sure you couldn't pronounce it if you tried.. So just call me Shi'hiro" she bowed her head to them, removing her helmet, her sun bleached hair, cut short and spikes from the helm. Her face was beautiful, high cheekbones, jaw having a fierce look, she had obviously seen some tough years by the obvious scars running across her face from the left side to the right at a diagonal. she watched the firey woman in the middle of the group

2011-11-24 [The Horseman]: Victor shrugged his shoulders and then crossed his arms, his shoulders bulging and showing his full mass under his cloak that hung over his giant frame. He looked around the place at the scattered rubble and ruins of what used to be the stronghold. He could easily move the stones for the towers and ramparts, or he could use a bit of magic to fix everything in a much shorter amount of time. He wasn't sure what he wanted to do at the moment, he sniffed and smelled a different scent on the wind.

2011-11-25 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: Alexandria nodded quietly and watched the large man "and you?" she asked, watching him with wary eyes. Out of all the newcomers, she trusted him the least. He seemed to have a temper. She never liked that in people.

2011-11-27 [Kaos101]: Jackson wasn't sure what to think of Shihi-something or whatever she called herself. He already knew he shouldn't trust the mammoth clutching his tusk. Jackson took a hesitant step toward the new girl; she seemed much less vicious with the dragon off in the field. "It's nice to meet you Sh-..mam. We could sure use the help around here, what with it just being the two of us. But I am just a stranger here. I am okay with it if she is okay with it." He said, pointing back at the strange girl he couldn't help but like.

2011-11-27 [The Horseman]: Victor would have spat on the ground if his mask didn't prevent him from doing so, but he couldn't hardly stomach how a male could be such a sucker for women. Victor had always thought it was a waste of time, he couldn't procreate anyways so what did it matter to him. He scoffed and crossed his arms, his other eye hidden behind his long black hair glaring at the male.

2011-11-27 [Firmina Tiberia]: "I'll be glad to help, but I do think he was asked a question." she pointed to te large man. "you were asked your name by this young lady, and seeing as it seems she was the first to arrive here, and begin building this stronghold again, what with the burial of that fallen warrior and all, I vote she is in command now, for she seems to have a right head on her shoulders, and a good heart." Said the dragon rider, her jaden eyes gleaming as she strode towards Jackson and Alexandria. Her eyes stayed on the large male as she spoke, but as she halted next to Alexandria, her eyes shifted to the other woman's face, her eyes drifting over her a moment before looking back to the large man.

2011-11-27 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: Alexandria smiled at her two new companions then looked at the large man once more. "I did indeed, ask you of your name, Sir." she rested one of her hands on a curvy hip as she waited a response. She took not of the dragon girl's lingering eye, but made no comment. Alexandria could feel Jackson's mild fondness towards her, and she only hoped it was not because of her species, that he enjoyed her presence.

2011-11-28 [The Horseman]: Victor growled and then signed his name with his giant hands. Spelling it slowly so that everyone could read his hands, his voice hurt because he was used to having his best friend around to do his talking for him.

2011-11-28 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: Her eyes glittered a bit at him before she turned, walking I to the doors once more "I need to do some planning now that we have more helpers." she spoke mainly to Jackson as she walked.

2011-11-28 [Kaos101]: Jackson nodded and followed close behind her. He wasn't sure if she actually wanted him to follow or not, but he would welcome any excuse to steer clear of the mountain glaring at him. Jackson learned as a kid to cool his anger and snuff out his temper. He guessed the giant didn't have anyone to smack him and tell him to be nice.

2011-11-28 [The Horseman]: Victor glared at the small male as he heard his thoughts and then sent a sharp pain down his spine. Then mentally sent a message "Don't tempt me to rip your fingers off, knuckle by knuckle and then start with your toes. I'm the eldest of the four here and I was here when this stronghold was at the peak of its prowess," his message being quite clear he figured and then looked up at the clouds passing by.

2011-11-28 [Kaos101]: Jackson gripped at his spine, stumbling slightly as he went to one knee, wincing at the pain. So the giant was a mind reader too? Why wasn't he surprised? Jackson chuckled and stood before turning and looking at the man."You think I will just cower at your feet like a dog? I may not be able to do amazing things like you three, but I am sure as hell no coward. My sensei taught me better than that." He said before turning back away from him and following Alexandria once more.Torture me if you want, but don't tell me not to tempt you into harming me when you clearly don't need my help. Jackson didn't know if the mountain could hear him or not, but he really didn't care. He didn't look for trouble, but he didn't hold himself wishing for trouble to go away when it found him. He would probably have his arms ripped off for saying that to the giant, but at least he would have his dignity. That was worth it, right?

2011-11-29 [Firmina Tiberia]: The dragon rider watched the giant man and the look on his face. "you need to check your facts before you comment to someone of the age of the group. I may appear young, but I have been here for many lifetimes, you might, and I say might, be older than me, but you do not know that for sure. You do not know me nor my past. If I were you, I'd either change my thoughts and attitude, or, leave. We do not need someone here that will only pick fights and make trouble." she turned and followed after the firey haired woman, her helm held under her arm. As she walked one might notice a small limp in her step, an old wound perhaps. She was not intimidated by the large man, no matter how much he wanted her to be.

2011-11-29 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: Alexandria suddenly turned, stomping her foot a bit. "All of you hush, Victor, if you wish to stay I'd like to ask you to play nice, if not, then simply go, I will not stand for threats here. Unlike you, I see this land as holy. It is a graveyard, a church, a tomb. Do not disgrace this land." her eyes were completely black, a heavy contradiction from the normal vibrant sapphire. She stared at all of them, her very voice almost oozing with irritation. She wasn't easy to anger. "Shi'hiro, Jackson, follow me, Victor, make your choice." she turned and walked into the main office. It was a mess, the desk turned over, all sorts of items on the ground. She uprights chairs and grabbed some blank paper and found a quil and an unopened bottle of ink. She took a seat and began to write on the paper, sighing faintly.

2011-11-29 [Kaos101]: Jackson did as he was told, not thinking whether he should or shouldn't but just doing. He followed Alexandria, keeping a safe space between him and the dragon girl as he walked into the office. The empty doorway allowed light to expose the clatter of off-colored paper and partially rotted wood. Jackson looked between Alexandria at the desk and the dragon girl before settling at the end of the room, leaning against the side and waiting for orders. He didn't feel he was in much of a position to tell these two what to do.

2011-11-30 [The Horseman]: Victor glared at the group, his rage surging through his body and vibrating circle emanating his power rumbled through the ground under their feet. "I don't take orders from children, if you want help rebuilding then say so, if Not then I'd suggest you at least put up a better fight than what you three can give me right now," he broadcast through telepathy into all three of their minds. His thoughts making his voice deep and dark, with a hint of vengeance and spite.

2011-12-01 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: "the choice is yours. Not ours." Alexandria simply replied. She stared at the paper as she sketched and wrote quietly. She was making a list of everything that needed to be done, and she wondered if Shi'hiro could use powers like her own. She took a deep breath then looked over at Jackson and gave him a smile "no need to stay so far away." she said softly

2011-12-01 [The Horseman]: Victor grunted and then walked over, picking up one stone with his arm and then using the other hand to stack on two more on top of the one he was holding. He easily walked over and started to stack them in a pile near the wall and the watch tower.

2011-12-01 [Kaos101]: Jackson just shrugged his shoulders. Without thinking much of it, he walked over and re-posted against the wall behind the desk slightly to the right of Alexandria, his hands clasped behind his back to avoid raising any alarms from standing so close." Of course. I'm just...feeling a bit out of place at the moment. You are busy, so don't mind me." He said with a nervous smile. He didn't pay attention to Victor at all. The giant would do as he pleased. There was no point arguing with beasts. (Should we break the stronghold into sections as we did before?)

2011-12-02 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: (we can if that would be easier. I miss those days anyway) Alexandria looked back at him and smiled gently "no reason to be nervous.. I'm not too busy, just thinking, really. I'm thi king about deviding the stronghold into sections.. In a sense.." she said, leaning back in the chair.

2011-12-02 [The Horseman]: Victor shot the young male an image through his mind, an image of Victor holding him by his feet as he pulled his toes off one by one, then is fingers. "Do not tempt me to show you what a beast really is boy," he said mentally with the picture.

2011-12-02 [Kaos101]: Jackson shook his head, clearing the image from his mind, swaying lightly from the effects of being briefly pulled from reality. What was he trying to do? Brainwash him with fear? A poor tactic. Jackson doubted the giant had a single companion he hadn't already killed for taking a step in a direction the giant wasn't comfortable with at the time. Jackson pledged years ago he wouldn't allow himself to be swayed by fear or by the threats of others, no matter how strong. His sensei deserved better than that. Victor was surely no beast, for beasts didn't torture. The giant was simply a monster. Jackson didn't bother thinking a reply; Victor already knew what he thought of him and it wasn't about to change, especially if sending images of torture was Victor's way of getting respect. He instead focused his attention on Alexandria."Not sure what that means, but sounds like a good plan." He said, giving the best smile he could with the memory of Victor's image still floating in his mind.

2011-12-03 [Firmina Tiberia]: Shi'hiro turned her head towards Victor and her eyes narrowed a little, but she kept her mind, blank, at least as far as he knew. She'd been around his kind before, at least, mind readers, that gave no respect to anyone of their thoughts. Thoughts were personal. He really had no reason to be snooping in their minds. She had learned to block people like him, very easily. She stood and walked close to Alexandria, she knelt down and gave the other woman a smile, whilst resting her gloved hand on Alexandria's knee, she leaned closer to look at the paper. "Let me see what you have there." She said softly to her,

2011-12-03 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: Alexandria turned the paper so Shi'hiro could see it, smiling to her "I'm thinking about giving everyone am area to focus on rebuilding then giving everyone their own chambers and things of the sort.

2011-12-04 [The Horseman]: Victor continued to walk around, picking up stones and placing them in piles near certain areas which were in need of repair. His elven side had died long ago, his mental reading abilities took over and he started to lose the use of his voice. He still used it to make sure he wouldn't lose it, but he didn't like using his voice. It sounded too soft to him, he wanted to make it deeper. He kept walking around, almost like an automaton, stacking the rocks in neat piles to be used.

2011-12-05 [Kaos101]: Jackson, arms folded, leaned over Alexandria's shoulder opposite Shi'hiro."Oh? It begs the questions, what area should I focus on? If I may offer input, I would like to start on my own quarters if I'm going to be staying here for a while."

2011-12-06 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: "if you wish to stay, I won't stop you. I'd enjoy your company, actually." she smiled softly up at him "would you like to start on your quarters, which will be..." a pause. "in the west wing.. And maybe the armory?"

2011-12-06 [Kaos101]: Jackson grinned." If there's one thing I know it's weapons. I will put my quarters a step away from the armory and keep tabs on whatever gets put in." He said with a bow before heading out.

2011-12-06 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: Alexandria thanked him quietly before looking to Shi'hiro with a smile. "I'm sorry but I'm not sure of what your interests are.. Or I'd place you. "

2011-12-06 [The Horseman]: Victor looked up at the walls of the stronghold, seeing small parts missing here and there, he levitated himself up to the foot walks and began to examine them to see where he should start. Until the wind picked up and he caught hold of a strange scent, like death and decay rolled into one. He scoffed and shrugged it aside thinking it was just a dead animal somewhere nearby.

2011-12-06 [Kaos101]: Jackson walked the remnants of the wall of the stronghold until he arrived at the start of the west wing -- or what was left of it. He smelled something. The smell of rotting flesh. He scrunched his nose at the nauseating scent before turning his attention to his two buildings. His quarters shouldn't take as long as the armory, and they didn't exactly have many weapons to store away. He began looking around and noticed a pile of rocks stacked nearby. He shrugged his shoulders at the odd convenience, then walked and grabbed one, beginning to construct the walls.

2011-12-07 [The Horseman]: Victor looked around outside the wall, seeing nothing interesting going on just past the forest. He saw the young male in his corner of the stronghold, looking like his body wouldn't last very long lugging around the stones.

2011-12-19 [The Horseman]: (Did this one die again?)

2011-12-19 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: (I havnt been here... Nor has Tib)

2012-01-18 [The Horseman]: (Anyone still here?)

2012-01-19 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: (I'm always here)

2012-01-21 [The Horseman]: (Yay!)

2012-01-22 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: (but no one seems to want this to go on)

2012-01-24 [The Horseman]: (I'm still here and Waiting, almost painfully for someone to keep going.)

2012-01-24 [Wolfe In Chef's Clothing]: I lost any ideas for a continued story, honestly.)

2012-01-28 [The Horseman]: (Damn that sucks)
