    Dmitry looked at Lilian and sighed, knowing full well that Lexa was right. Upon sitting against a tree, he heard the little god question him on his partner for this trip. 

    "To be pefectly honest, furball, I don't really know," he said bluntly, not sure how else he could put it. "Her magic's always been different, even the spirits react to it. I think it's got somethin' to do with those circuit things she got all over her. If I recall right, there what let her use magic in the first place." Dmitry looked up at the lightning in the sky. "And I'll bet it's got somethin' to do with this place. Somethin' happened here, I can feel it. The spirits in this place move differently than they should, even with this much lightning." After a few minutes, the mage's eyes began to close. Of course, before long, he was sound asleep against the tree.


    [Flashback]

    Seven years ago:

    Little Dmitry Kazakov was now about fifty feet into the cave, still cold, but no longer shivering. He had left his coat closer to the entrance, feeling it would only slow him down and keep him cold. Soon the cavern expanded into a stalactites and split off tunnels, leaving the child in awe as he had never been to a place such as this. 

    'Surprised, boy?' Hati asked, amused at his pupil's expression.


    'Uh...I guess so, yeah.' Dmitry responded, still immersed in the dark world around him, only somewhat visible to him because of the time he took to let his eyes adjust to the low visibility before proceeding. 


    'Well, then take a good look, for this is the history of this land.' The wolf spirit said, taking the opportunity to teach his young charge a thing or two. 'This place was created not by man or by magic, but by simple water. Not a flood's worth, but just a little at a time. The world has a way of remembering things, recording them for people like you to someday see. Even magic leaves a trace where it is used; nothing is truly erased.' While this might have seen like something basic to an adult, these words were being spoken to a child, leaving him in awe of what mere water could do.

    [End Flashback]


    'Do you remember now, boy?' Hati asked the mage as he slowly woke up.


    'Yeah, I get it old man.' Dmitry said back, now fully aware of what was bothering him about this place. 'The spirits here...they're avoiding something.' 

    But what that was still eluded the two.

    Lexa normally didn't have dreams. She didn't know why it was like that, but when she went to sleep all she could see was black. But now, she was experiencing something in her sleep. Opening her eyes, she found herself on a strange type of bed, looking into a bright lamp with five bulbs. She turned he head, the sound of the half assed operating bed's materials crunching under her. There were five people in the room, all their faces were blurred out and shadowed over. She could see them all wearing snow white lab coats, and mumbling something to each other... Something about someone named 'Subjext X-003' or whatever. "Shit, shit, shit! Hurry get the sedative!" a hazey voice called out, the blurred image pointing off in a direction. "We've already used a whole 30 milligrams not even a few minutes ago!" a female voice responded, sounding rather panicked. "God dammit, I don't care! X-003's the only one to take to the implants. We're not risking her waking up before the rest are in place. Use an entire gram." the voice called back. Lexa felt a pain in her chest, she heard her heart begin racing. Faster, faster, and faster the beating went and each time her chest ached. Beeping was heard from a machine, the beeping was in perfect sync with her heart until finally she heard a puffing sound. She felt her heart rate decreasing, and the beeping along with it. The beeping became a steady pace as she heard the voice call "Subject X-003 stabilized..." the voice began fading, but the last bit was very clear as she heard the name 'Alexandria Lexicus Grimoire' being said. The world faded to black, the normal thing she had that was ever close to a dream. Meanwhile Lillian, who was far more accustomed to dreaming found herself seated in a magic powered car, moving through the paths that linked Lavantir port with the chained city of Silver Island. It was then that a gigantic crab emerged from the lake, slamming its foot down on the car ahead of hers, crushing the engine and causing it to explode. The force sent a piece of the car flying into the one she was in, and directly into the chest of the person sitting next to her. Lillian looked up and saw her mother's face just before the body erupted into flames and dissipated. 

    In the real world, Lillian was mumbling in her sleep "Lexa... Lexa help..." as the scene played out in her mind. Lexa slowly roused from her sleep as well, not hearing her name being called; but a strange instinct telling her that something was going on. Out of nowhere, the haze of waking up was completely eradicated as Lillian cried in terror, and pain "LEXA!!!!" as though she were truly about to die. Lexa wrapped her arms around the child as the child gripped Lexa's clothes for dear life. Realizing it was a dream, the child who was panting and sweating profusely turned to crying into Lexa's chest. Not knowing what happened, Lexa looked at Dmitry and mouthed "What the hell did you do?" while maintaining her embrace with her sister.

    Dmitry sighed again as Lexa unsurprisingly blamed him for Lilian's terror, ignoring the idea of a little girl having a nightmare. 

    "Relax, the kid had a bad dream is all." He said, not bothering to hush his voice. "No surprise really, this place ain't exactly a good one for a kid to sleep in. All this thunder probably bled into her dream and turned into somethin' foul."


    'I still remember when you used to have the same problem, boy.' Said Hati, causing Dmitry to cringe a bit. Those with connections to the spiritual plane are unfortunately more susceptible to nightmare's and night terrors than most people, especially as children. Naturally, that meant the young medium was plagued with sleepless nights as his training progressed and he became more sensitive to spiritual activity. And as one might expect, Hati did little to comfort him during these frightful times, usually chastising him for not getting enough sleep. Now that he was older and in better control of his powers, his nightmares no longer visited him, though every now and then he had a confusing dream or two. 


    'You used to get so terrified because of those dreams.' The wolf spirit mockingly said to the mage.


    'You're a rotten old bastard, you know that?' Dmitry shook his head, preferring to focus on the task at hand rather than bicker with his surrogate parent.

    "Look, it's better that we're all awake," he said, attempting to get this trip back on track. "Much as we needed the rest, we've spent too much time here. Remember, this place could go up at anytime and we're almost too far in to get out of here in time if a fire starts." He then held his hand to the right. "I invoke the Lunar Horse: Alsvinder!" At his call, the smoke-like steed appeared from thin air, ready to take his next rider. "Lily, if you're still tired you can ride on old Al here until you get your strength back." He said warmly to the little girl before turning to Lexa. "Worst happens, he can have her at the coast in no time. But even so, We gotta keep movin'."

     Just as Dmitry finished saying this, another pair of monkeys leaped from the bushes in a vain effort to ambush the group. In one motion, the experienced combatant turned towards the simians, threw slung his knife into the skull of one of the monkeys like an arrow, and fired a wisp at the other's face, knocking it to the ground before either could reach their targets.

    Lexa had opened her mouth to ask Dmitry what a dream was when a pair of monkeys flew out of the treeline at the four beings, one was met with a knife that killed it almost instantly and the other took some weird smokey ball thing to the face that knocked it to the ground. Lexa watched as Lillian got off her to let her fight, but Lexa had a slight smirk on her face. "Lil... you haven't trained at all today have you?" she said with a suggestive tone. Lillian shook her head with a rather inquisitive look in her eyes. "That one's weakened, so it's not as fast as it would normally be. You know the rules, die and you lose, live and you win." she said with a dead serious look as she glared at Lillian. For the small girl, the idea of killing something was the ultimate horror. She only killed the other one by accident, the knife toss was a simple reaction from being desperate not to see Lexa possibly die. But now... she had to kill on purpose. Lillian was frozen with her hand at the grip of her dagger as she stared helplessly at the enemy that was getting up. Lexa gave Dmitry a look that spoke for itself, saying 'Help her and you're dead' without Lexa having to speak at all. The simian gotten up, letting out a loud, shrill scream before charging at Lillian in an attempt to at least take one of its enemies down with him. Lillian's eyes began glowing with a crimson aura as a type of magic circle appeared in them, her true instincts taking full effect and causing her to charge at the simian. She knew for a fact that Lexa wouldn't move a muscle unless the primate actually hit her, in which case she might die. She knew Lexa could heal others, but she knew Lexa couldn't revive the dead. Her instincts were her best friend 'a good assassin trusts nothing more than their own gut' was heard as Lexa's word, her lecture burrowed deep in her heart. The monkey threw a punch at Lillian, its fist sparking with electricity as it flew out at the small girl. Lillian jumped to the side into a commando roll before standing up on the simian's left side and thrusting the small, silver dagger into its body. A few seconds passed as her mind began clearing, the glow in her eyes fading and then Lillian saw what she'd just done. Tears began forming at her eyes as her humanity forced her to feel for the small creature. "If that thing killed you, do you think it would have cried?" Lexa said coldly. "I- I know it d-doesn't care... but..." "Abandon your humanity when your life is on the line, and only when your life is on the line. Survive even if you have to sacrifice another, even if you have to sacrifice me." Lexa said, causing Lillian's eyes to fly open. "But... if I... I..." Lillian said trying to find her words. Lexa walked up to her and kneeled down, ripping the dagger from the corpse. "That's enough training for now. You wanna ride the horsey?" Lexa said in a calm, still adult like voice that had a hint of maternal instinct buried in it. Lillian looked at the horse and immediately grabbed Lexa's hand while standing up, hiding herself as much as possible from the creature. "Sorry, looks like she's gonna be walking it off. But I'd like to ask you a question... What's a dream?" Lexa said, her eyes held absolute ignorance when the question was asked, showing she truly didn't know...

    Dmitry simply stood back, crossed his arms, and watched as the lesson began, the silent warning unneeded as he knew full well the necessity of learning how to defend one's self. However, he had to admit, something felt wrong as he watched the girl carry out the instructions. When he was a boy, the terms were simple: kill or starve. So he couldn't say he disagreed with the lesson entirely, but the lecture afterwords made him understand clearly. Lexa was trying to root out Lilian's emotions by force. Dmitry's education was very different, as Hati never told him to bury his emotions. Quite the contrary, Hati instructed him to embrace and understand what he felt when he killed, going so far as to chastise the boy with his fangs. He told him that he could never truly kill those feelings, only bury or embrace them. If one buried them, they would eventually dig themselves back up and burst forth out of him and destroy him. 

    Even after that, Dmitry learned even more when he came across Lamia Scale, understanding soon after how important other people could be to him. Naturally, this talk of Lily sacrificing her own sister was nonsense to his ears, contradicting everything he had come to know in his short life. However, he knew he wouldn't convince Lexa to understand the truth. She was obviously far too set in her ways, most likely a product of her past. It was around this time that he was asked a very strange question.

    "Eh? What's a dream?" It certainly wasn't a very typical question, but then Lexa wasn't a typical girl. "Well, uh, you see, they're these things you get when your sleepin'. You know, pictures and stuff, sounds, events. You see and hear stuff happening around you, except it's not really happening. Sometimes it's memories and sometimes it's just stuff your brain kinda makes up on it's own. And then there's the really scary ones, shows the stuff you'd rather forget or stuff you're just plain afraid of. Those are called nightmares, same as what Lily just had." Dmitry looked back at the sky, wanting to return to the task at hand. "That's beside the point, okay. We gotta get moving already. I don't think that cave is much further ahead." Considering it time to finally move on, Dmitry had Alsvinder follow him as he moved forward on the trail.

    "I don't think it's much further to that cave, so let's get a move on."

    Lexa took in the lesson, maintaining eye contact with Dmitry as bright lights flickered across her bright blue eyes making it look like they were shimmering. The lights were thousands of tiny magic circuits, processing the information and downloading it to Lexa's memory. She looked at the ground afterwards, matching the word 'dream' with what she saw when she was sleeping. "Is it normal to dream?" she asked calmly as she began walking. Lillian followed behind closely, staying close to Lexa but being as far from Dmitry and his horse as possible. 'Humans have dreams...' Lexa thought, her eyes growing sullen for a moment as she walked but soon turning confident again as she heard that damned platypus off in the distance. The world lit up as the blast of electricity came at them, and Lexa, acting off of pure instinct shoved Lillian away from her and along took the full impact of the attack. The force behind it sent Lillian and Atracrema flying into one of the trees lining the path, and Lexa flying backwards and being slammed against a large stone pillar that cracked under the immense force. Completely engulfed in the attack, Lexa wasn't seen at all. What seemed like a whole minute, was in fact but a few measly seconds that she was encased in the raw energy. The attack ceased, and Lexa was seen with the bottom half of her shirt completely fried off and burn marks on the bottom of her arms. She collapsed to the ground, first on her knees with her eyes closing as the world blurred and hen falling on her body unconscious as her body continued smoking. Lillian, no longer under the force of the attack tossed Atracrema off her and ran to Lexa's side with tears forming. "Lexa...?" she said. Lillian held her head as she had a flashback to the dream she had of her first family dying. "L... Lexa...?" she said again, her eyes beginning to glow bright crimson. "Lexa..." she said as her disbelief set in. "Lexa..." she said again while turning to Dmitry. Her crimson eyes turned pure black as black flames engulfed her fists and Lillian's soft, loving eyes took on the true essence of wrath. She grabbed the smoldering swords from Lexa's back, the blades being engulfed in the black flames like her hands. "A good assassin... never lets her partners die..." Lillian said, her voice still soft. "A good assassin... never takes revenge." she said while walking forwards, the platypus turning towards her. "I'm not an assassin." Lillian said while looking at the platypus. "You hurt my big sister..." she said, her voice sounding scratched up as the tears flowed. "I'LL KILL YOU!" she shouted as the platypus fired its cannon. Lillian crossed the blades, making a slashing motion and causing a surge of black fire to erupt, cutting directly through the attack and creating a massive linear crater as it slammed into the platypus. She then flipped the two swords to hold them backwards and charged at the being. The platypus quickly shook off the fire in its mouth, and began rapidly firing electricity. Lillian jumped again, spinning in the air and firing multitudes of black fire, each intercepting one of the platypus's shots and launching right through it. Filling the weapons with her power again, Lillian slammed the swords on the ground directly in front of the platypus and created a huge pillar of black flame that tore into the megafauna. When the pillar was gone, it revealed only the beast's head, legs and tail to be left. Lillian dropped the swords and immediately ran back to Lexa where the began shaking her rapidly, and trying to bargain with her. "If you come back... I swear I'll kill whatever you want me to! I'll abandon my emotions! I'll stick to every shadow! I'll... I'll... Please big sister... Don't leave me..." she screamed while crying, noting that Lexa didn't move a muscle, wasn't breathing, and she couldn't hear a heart beating. Out of nowhere, a monkey appeared and started charging for the grieving girl who was too pre-occupied to notice it.

    Dmitry should have acted.

    He should have stepped in.

    He should have helped Lilian.

    He should have checked on Lexa.

    He didn't do any of that. The mage simply stood there, completely frozen in place. Dmitry knew what he had to do, it was obvious really. But for reasons he couldn't fathom, his feet didn't move. It was only after Lexa lay on the cold hard ground that he stepped in, swiftly closing the distance between him and the monkey. The blade of Dark Fang sliced into the furry creature's neck, releasing a stream of blood from it's jugular. As the monkey's lifeless corpse fell to the dirt, Dmitry turned to where a great tremor was coming from, tucking his knife into his belt with an entirely new rage in his eyes. Out of the treeline burst forth a monstrous stone golem, imbued with lightning and destruction. 


    "Let's get started..."

    Dmitry knelt down and grabbed the swords that Lilian dropped, flipped them into a reverse grip, and charged at the stone beast. In response to this, the golem began to charge as well, slamming it's fist into the ground when the distance was closed, attempting to squash the attacking medium. Dmitry leaned back and hit the ground, sliding on his back and just barely avoiding the stone fist. As he passed under the golem, he planted a sword in the joint of it's left knee and immediately disappeared. When he reappeared to the right of it, he planted the other sword in the elbow of that side's arm. On the left side, he kicked the pommel of the sword in the golem's knee, driving it further in. At it's back, he grabbed onto the stones on the enemy's back, climbing to it's shoulders as it writhed about. When he reached the beast's apex, he drew his knife and drove it into a crevice in the thing's shoulder, releasing a stream of darkness that separated it's right arm from it's body. As it's appendage hit the ground, the golem released a pulse of electricity, flinging Dmitry off of it and sending him about ten feet back onto the ground.

    "I invoke the World Serpent: Jormangand!" The enormous smoke snake made it's return by emerging from the ground and coiling around the hulking mass of stone, holding it in place as it sunk it's massive fangs into the soft spot where its arm once was. Dmitry got up as fast as he could, deciding to give the girl the chance for some satisfaction. "Cmon kid, let's end this bastard!" He shouted before tossing tossing the knife high over the golem's head, putting it at an angle from the front of the giant.

    Lillian found herself completely engulfed by sadness, unable to escape the pains of her second family being destroyed. She was ignorant of the monkey, as well as unaware that Dmitry was currently fighting a much stronger opponent. It was only after she was addressed that she'd noticed another opponent had entered the fray. She turned watching a knife being thrown over the large beast made of rock and lightning, not thinking, only acting she ran up and grabbed it. In her heart was the purest of hatred for this island and its inhabitants, such malevolence filled Dmitry's knife as she prepared her attack. She jumped up, lining a shot directly with the golem's chest. Just as Lillian was prepared to release the energy stored within the blade, the golem fired a single stone from its chest at her sending Lillian flying across the ground. She got up, once again her eyes filled with the instinct to fight, the instinct to kill, the absolute desire to finish the mission. Small orbs of black flames formed, seated mid air while more formed. The golem let out a howl of fury at the small girl, and then was immediately barraged with black fire. Each orb shattered a small chunk, but in such quantities the golem was fighting far more than it would ever hope to withstand. Lillian stood there breathing heavily with anger in her eyes. Atracrema walked up to Lexa and gave her a good smelling, double checking the child's claim of her being dead. "Humans, this one's life is fleeting but is not gone." he said calmly. Lillian looked at the ground, knowing that this is the only chance Lexa has to find out more... possibly even get her memories back. "Mr. Dmitry, you came to protect Lexa and you failed. But now I want you to protect me please. I... I want to find out why big sister came here. That and a good assassin never fails their missions... not while she's still breathing." Lillian said while looking at Dmitry with uncharacteristically confident eyes. "You mortals are strange beings. However you entertain me... so I shall carry this one to the shore and safeguard her body. I trust you have transportation?" the fire god stated. "No. Mister skippy left with the boat and will only come back when big sister or me sends out the signal." Lillian replied, her voice was soft and sweet, as though she held no hatred in her heart at all. "Very well, complete you task. I shall remain at the shore, such will allow us to leave without lugging her all the way back, possibly under unfavorable circumstances." he said, not exactly wanting to have to guard what is likely a corpse. "Thank you." Lillian said and gave a polite bow. She walked over to Lexa and pulled the sheathes from her back, sliding them over her shoulders. She walked over to the two swords and picked them up, gently sliding them into their sheathes. She walked back to Dmitry and hesitantly grabbed his hand, her own was trembling from fear. "I'm sorry mister Dmitry... but for big sister... I need to finish the fight." Lillian said sheepishly. "And... when... when we're done... please don't let big sister know about... about my magic." she added. Atracrema placed a paw on Lexa's body and both disappeared in a burst of flames. Lillian pulled out a small rectangular lacrima and pressed a button in the middle. Holding it to her ear she said "Emergency assistance requested, log in Alexandria Lexicus Grimoire... Ace of Petals." she then placed the object back in her shirt pocket and said "Let's go, reinforcements are on the way." she said to Dmitry before letting go of his hand and entering the cave.

    Dmitry wasn't surprised when the fox said that Lexa was still alive, having a feeling she was never truly dead. While he couldn't directly sense souls like a certain friend of his, his own level of spiritual perception had gotten high enough to allow him some ability to tell there was still life in the blonde girl. Soon after the news, he felt a warmth in his hand and looked down to find it was being held by Lilian. He gave her another warm smile as she trembled, a little impressed by her resolution.

    "Don't worry about it, kiddo," Dmitry said, rustling her hair a bit with his other hand. "We started this and we're gonna finish it." These weren't just words of comfort; the medium was determined to see this through. Not only was this important to a friend of his, it something about this made him feel like it could save her life as well. Whether that feeling came from the spirits or his knight bloodline, he wasn't the type to ignore his gut. After all, it had been the difference between life and death throughout his life, even before he could perceive the future.

    After his hand was relinquished, Dmitry walked over to where his knife lay and and placed it back in his belt for easier access. With that he rejoined Lillian, eager to be done with this as he still anxious about the lightning roaring in the distance. It wasn't very long before they reached the cave Lexa mentioned earlier, giving the survivalist in Dmitry some good news. Regardless of what was in this shelter, they could use it to ride out a forest fire if they had to. That might not have been a perfect plan, but it beat running for the coast through fire and smoke, so it would have to do. When they got inside, the place seemed...unnatural. Everything was too smooth, too neat, like it was made by someone. That and the seemingly dead guy in the corner was certainly out of place. In the body's hand was what appeared to be a simple stone, yet once again, something told him that this was important. However, as Dmitry attempted to remove the object, the unexpected happen, as a hand grasped his arm.

    "X-003! She's alive!" The man shouted as Dmitry tried to push him off. "Subject X-003 is alive! She's alive! She's supposed to be dead!" Finally, having had enough of this, the gray-hair kicked the man off of him. After that, he seemed to get rather weak, the outburst over. "Fortune smiles on us...It's not too late..." His eyes began to fade and roll back. "Take...the stone...and..."

    Lillian watched as the man came to life, instinctively hiding behind Dmitry as he began sputtering madness about something names X-003. The ground shook violently with a loud thud as something impacted it just outside the cave. A large robot, nine feet tall to be exact rolled into the cavern with a machine gun aimed directly at Dmitry and a phase sword pointed at Lillian. Lillian let out a slight squeal as the blade nearly poked her in the nose. "CASSIE stand down..." she said weakly, the robot's eyes began flashing as it processed the girl's visage. "Unknown user... state your name, position, and rank please." Lillian stiffened like a board as the barrel of the gun was shifted from Dmitry to her. "L-l-l-Lillian G-Grimoire, Silver Island Citizen; no av-vailable rank, Omen in-n-nitiate!" she said nervously, her eyes both staring at the tip of the bullet on the other end of the barrel. The lights in the automation's eyes began flickering as it processed the information, searching for anything in its existing data. "No relevant data found, searching for available updates.... updating roster... Lillian Grimoire confirmed. Where is big sister?" the female AI said. "Lexa's waiting at the coast for our task to be done, we... I'll be counting on you for support fire and updates on enemy weak spots." Lillian said after the barrel was lowered from her face. "Understood. Will big sister be requiring emergency evacuation?" CASSIE asked, her programming caused her to sound concerned. "Yes please." Lillian said. "Sending evacuation request... due to inclimate weather evacuation will be delayed for approximately five hours. Is Lexa in a safe location?" the AI asked. "Yes, she's with a small white fox, it has nine tails each having blue fire at the tips." Lillian replied. "Understood, sending data." CASSIE said, her eyes flashing as the information was sent. Lillian walked over to the man with his stone and picked it up, she then walked to the large robot and opened a hatch. She gently placed it inside the empty area and turned to Dmitry with a weak smile, feeling a bit uncomfortable being with a total stranger and a trigger happy robot. "I-it might be helpful... C-CASSIE can keep it safe." she said hesitantly before moving on. Movement was heard up ahead, immediately a type of barrier was placed on Lillian followed by the words "Movement detected, Over-Shield activated. Proceed with caution, you know my combat control unit's experimental." coming from the small squad's robotic companion.

    Dmitry stiffened up when the loud crash sounded off, expecting something big to come into the picture. Just as he thought, a massive robot made it's presence known inside, prompting Dmitry to raise his fists in front of him. However, it seemed that this machine was alright...for now. After a bunch of procedural gobbledygook that flew right over Dmitry's head, the big metal...girl said something about movement. Soon after, the sound of hooves hitting stone could be heard, as light began to emanate from deeper in the cave. 


    "Great...these guys again." Dmitry groaned, knowing from experience what was coming. He turned and drew the knife from his belt, hoping he could end this quickly. "Alright, let's see what kinda shit's behind door number fuck..."

    Soon after he said that, two horses sparking with electricity like the one before came charging from around the corner, much more panicked this time. Not wanting to stop and ask them why the horses were so scared, Dmitry unleashed a blast of malevolence from Dark Fang's blade. The darkness crashed into the legs of the equestrian assailants, sending them crashing into the ground due to their own speed and snapping one of their necks. Dmitry walked over to the one that remained alive and knelt down by it, gently stroking it's mane. 

    "What the hell happened here...?" He mumbled, wishing he had time to figure out what caused all of this. 'End it, boy.' Hati said, voicing what Dmitry knew he had to do. "Easy buddy..." He said softly to the beast, before plunging his blade into the back of it's skull. The horse didn't make any noise or movement, the steel making it's way into it's brain with precision. It's breathing simply stopped and it's breath halted, it's life ceasing. 

    "C'mon let's get going, we need to get done with this soon." He said, not showing anymore emotion on the subject. As he walked on with his comrades, he looked at the more...metallic of the two. "So, uh...what's up with this...young lady?" He asked nervously, trying not to offend the one with the giant gun. "It's...she's a robot...or something, right? That's...nice. Just...try not to shoot at me, okay?" Dmitry kept an eye out as they continued, not wanting to bump into any surprises in such close quarters. "Keep'em peeled, will ya? No way to know whats down here..."

    Of course, the mage knew full well that it wouldn't be that simple.

    Lillian watched as Dmitry took care of their opponents rather quickly while CASSIE stayed back as ordered. The man had asked a few questions regarding their non-human ally, ones that Lillian didn't know or care if she were allowed to answer. "CASSIE means Ciminal Appwehension and Site Serveilance Inte... In..." "-Integrated" CASSIE said, helping the little girl out. "Thank you, Integated Exo." Lillian said, her voice was a bit embarrassed from having messed up. "She's an artificial intelligence progwam our guild normally uses for support." Lillian explained. "I offer a high-density kinetic barrier, as well as increase the levels of ethernano within the immediate area. Additionally am capable of emitting a high-density scan of opposing forces and audibly exploiting weaknesses in their structure or formation. As of recently, big sister Lexa has taken to utilizing my internal programming to indulge herself in many games of chess." CASSIE said, adding to Lillian's explanation. "Hikki!" Lillian said, at the mention of the chess games and turned slightly red while giving an awkward smile, the kind of expression that lets people know that she's actually the culprit. "Uhh... umm... C-CASSIE?" Lillian said hesitantly. "L-Lexa wasn't the one d-doing that... I- I was." she admitted, walking with her eyes tightly closed for fear of a reprimand beyond reason... likely in the form of a bullet through the everything. "You're really good at it little sis, the others can only make it to two hours at best." CASSIE said. Lillian, still not being used to compliments became even redder than before "Th-thank you." she said sheepishly while holding her own hands.

    It wasn't long the group was travelling, only being a good twenty or so minutes in all honesty when they'd arrived at a large room with light filtering through. Despite the outside world being caked with thunder, and lightning; this room was filled with pure sunlight that filtered into a small creek. Lillian ran over and got on all fours to look into the water, marveling at all the fish inside. She saw they all had some scales that looked like circuit markings, glowing blue instead of yellow. Lillian poked her finger in, conducting a quick test and found that the fish, unlike the animals, were completely unchanged beyond the magical altering. When Lillian's finger hit the water, the smallest fish dispersed in an attempt to get to safety why the larger fish just swam to a deeper section. Lillian found it strange that they reacted so differently, whereas the animals from outside all attacked on site. It wasn't long before a commotion was heard, making its way towards the group.

    Dmitry tried his best not to show his confusion at the many technical terms being thrown out, most likely understanding even less of them than little Lilian.


    "Oh yeah, uh...High den-city...keenetec barrier..." In truth, the tribal had absolutely no idea what he was talking about, having grown up outside the luxuries of human technology. However, he did know that what fishing was.

    "Your not gonna get any fish like that, kid." He said to the little girl. "First you gotta get the small fish, then you can use'em to get the big ones." Dmitry was going to demonstrate, when he heard something in the distance. The mage turned as yet another irritating, creepy, bat shit crazy monkey decided to ruin the peace, charging into the cavern as fast as it could and leaping for the girl. However, before it could get close, a hand latched on to it's tail and pulled hard enough to slam the simian into the cold, hard ground. Shortly after that, a foot repeatedly stomped on the little bastard and did not stop until it moved no more. 


    'Well, that was boring.' Said an unamused spirit, hoping for something entertaining. 'Couldn't you have put on more of a show, boy?'

    'Excuse the hell outta me for not stompin' a monkey with more flair, old man.' Dmitry responded, uninterested in providing amusement for his mentor. 'Should I start dancing now or wait until after I'm done juggling?' Pushing that disturbing thought aside, Dmitry decided to head back to the pond. When he arrived, he removed a hook and some fishing line from his pocket, planting a bug he had removed from the monkey on the pointy meal ticket and dropping it in the water. After a bit of time passed, the line became taught and Dmitry yanked it out of the water, grabbing hold of the small fish that was now on the hook. "Now, you see, you this one as bait, so the bigger one's got a reason to bite that hook." After that, he tossed the fish over to where the other fish had gone, wrapping the line around his hand so that he wouldn't lose his grip. About thirty seconds later, that line began to tug hard on Dmitry's hand, signaling him to pull hard and continue wrapping it. After a while of struggle, the mage ripped a rather large fish out from the water, holding it down as he removed the knife stowed away in his belt. Upon plunging the blade into the scaly snack's head, he held it up to the robot.

    "So, uh, you got some way to keep this from gettin' nasty on us?"

    Lillian watched as Dmitry cast a line out, nodding as he explained how to catch a fish though it was a lot different from how Lexa taught it. Lillian pulled out her dagger, aiming at one of the large fish that had been startled out from hiding when suddenly "I am not a refrigeration unit!" the large machine shouted with an elevated external audio setting in place. Lillian watched as the fish moved about, predicting its next movement just as Lexa taught her many times before. Just as the fish was about to tap the surface of the water, Lillian chucked the knife. Just as the fish did tap the surface of the water, the knife tapped the fish's spine and kept sinking in. Lillian reached over, and grabbed the dagger by the grip and pulled the fish out. It gave a few vain flips of its body, but couldn't get off the blade. She turned to CASSIE saying "Excuse me miss Cassie... you wouldn't have a way to keep this fresh would you?" with a voice too sweet to possibly get mad at, her large crimson eyes seeming more innocent than creepy. The large machine raised its hand and rested the top of its head in its metallic palm. "Did I not just say I am not a refrigeration unit..." the voice came out using an altered level setting in the AI's programming, one that mimicked the human emotion of frustration. Suddenly, another large platypus flew out the water with its moth wide open, a large ball of golden energy ready to fire. Just as suddenly, Lexa had appeared in a burst of light spinning with the back of her heel planted in the stupid animal's cheek. The platypus fired its shot, but due to Lexa's  sudden reappearance the shot was sent at an angle, and missed everyone entirely. This version of Lexa was different... not only was it the elevated amount of magical presence, but it was an increased malevolence that undoubtedly Dmitry's blade could pick up on. More than that... on Lexa's head were a pair of fox-like ears, accompanied by a blonde tail sticking from under her skirt. The platypus rolled from the wall, landing on all fours with an audible slapping sound. Lexa's magic circuits flashed from bright yellow, to pure black with shots of black electricity sparking off them. Loose debris began defying gravity around her feet as the dark energy seemed to radiate more anger than her heart did. The platypus began charging another shot, Lexa stood still for just enough time for the creature to get its shot ready. Just as it was about to fire, Lexa disappeared and reappeared with her hand shoved inside its mouth. The platypus let loose its attack, thinking that it would work. As the attack fired, Lexa brought up her reflect, and her Perdition Barrier at the same time, mixing them in with the increased power she had from her now blackened circuits, and that of the will she had to return to her guild with Lillian in tow. A blast of magical light flew from the platypus's ass, and the creature went limp. Lexa turned her head to face her allies, her eyes were shimmering bright blue as she said "Those fuckers... ripped my skirt." in between breaths, sounding quite unhappy. "Lexa!" Lillian seemed to disappear as well, reappearing as a streak across the opening that ended with her tackling Lexa to the ground. The fish was in free fall when Lexa hit the ground, her adopted sister on top her soaking her lightly fucked up shit with tears. Lexa looked down, a look of partial sadness, mixed with happiness and enlightenment in her eyes as she reached over with an arm and returned the hug. Her black circuits began steaming as they disappeared. "I... I caught a fish." Lillian said between sobs, her voice was scratchy as it pierced her sadness. "I guess ten thousandth time's the charm." Lexa replied. "Hey cass..." she called to the machine. "Yes bis sis?" the automation called back. "You got some way of keeping that fish from gettin' nasty?" Lexa asked. "DAMMIT JUST COOK THEM!" the machine said with it's external audio function at its maximum setting. "Kay... hey 'mitty... mind taking care of that?" Lexa said while raising the hand she was hugging Lillian with in the air, pointing to the fish. Her hand relaxed and flopped back to resting on Lillian, who was still crying.

    "Nice to see you too, spaz." Dmitry said, though he was truly glad to see her alive. "As for cooking these, there ain't enough wood here. Plus, we don't got the time anyway." By the time he was done saying this, he had already finished gutting his own fish. "I'll just have to hope it lasts until we get back to the boat." He then walked over to Cassie and tied his catch, which was still on the hook, to a cable ring on her shoulder. "I ain't wastin' it, so this'll have to do. Now c'mon, we gotta get movin'." With that said, Dmitry continued down the cave, trying to watch out for anymore...distractions. Much as he appreciated having a meal for the trip back, it wouldn't do him any good if he died in a forest fire before he could make it to shore.

    "So, uh, Blondie?" He asked, addressing Lexa by her less despised nickname. "What's, uh...what's with the ears and tail." In truth, it seemed that this was the second person he'd met with such animalistic features, the other giving no end of troubles. He already had enough to worry about with Lexa, considering the trip he was on now. Dmitry certainly didn't need her to start having amnesia and getting mugged in Hargeon, though that probably wasn't going to happen.

    As the stone-clad odyssey continued, the cave began to take on strange features. The walls seemed to straighten themselves out, the floor becoming more and more flat. The stone that made up the place became smooth, almost like marble. It was starting to remind him of the guild hall back in Hargeon, more particularly the Labyrinth he'd found the spirit of earth bound to, shortly before getting lost down there. It was in observing this strange development that Dmitry noticed something on the walls, starting out as a small patch and eventually covering the place. Upon taking a closer look at them, he found that they looked awfully familiar. After thinking a bit, his eyes widened as he realized what exactly it was that he was looking at.

    "This...this is the stuff that lights up on you when you use your magic, isn't it?" Dmitry said, unable to hide the surprise in his voice. "It was also on those fish back there..." And, as always, his survivor's instinct led him to a thought that was as far from what he should be thinking about as one could get.

    "That fish I caught ain't gonna taste funny 'cause of that stuff, is it?!"

    Post by Lexa Grimoire 6th January 2016, 1:35 am

    Lexa felt Lillian begin lifting off, the small child still crying as she sat on Lexa trying to stop the tears. Lexa sat up herself and pulled Lillian in for another hug, using one arm to support herself while doing so. It was the first time since Taranis left that she'd had someone to hold, or be held by so she didn't care if the whole damn island sunk she wanted her damn hug. The two disconnected and Lexa wiped away Lillian's tears with a warm smile on her face. Lillian got off Lexa, and then handed her back her weapons as she got off the ground. Lexa took the blades, and turned to CASSIE. "Log me in cass." she said with a commanding voice. "Logging in user... Alexandria Lexicus Grimoire, Omen Operative - Ace of Petals. Engaging Over Shield." the large automation said. A green array flashed over Lexa before fading away, letting her know that she was covered with the kinetic barrier.

    Walking down the tunnel, Lexa heard an inquiry about her new features... something she'd already forgotten she had. "Well... evidently I'm something called an 'Ace' and for some reason my guild master gave me fox ears... and a couple weeks later I found out I had a tail. Rn'D looked into it, but no one knows where the tail came from." she said with a somewhat embarrassed voice. "But they only come out when I'm pushing myself... they should go away soon." she said with an uncomfortable smile on her face. Lexa didn't like having those parts attached, and even less when others could see them. She hated more that she couldn't remember her guild master's face, otherwise she'd know who's ass to chew for sticking her with them. Lillian had moved herself closer to Lexa and grabbed her tail, causing her face to completely flush red. The younger one began rubbing on the super fluffy anomaly, making Lexa feel rather... abnormal. It feel good, but in a strange way to have her animal parts rubbed which was the thing she hated the most.

    The halls quickly changed to a smooth look, being coated in some weird materials. Dmitry made a valid point, and Lexa, wanting to see walked up to the wall and looked at her hand. A pulse of energy caused her hand's circuits to light up for a second. She looked at the wall and placed her hand on it, sending some magic power through her hand which transferred to the walls. The energy traveled in a pulse that made the markings turn golden for a moment and then return to being inert. "I think that's a yes..." Lexa said with amazement, the flustered look on her face vanishing as her ears and tail turned into light and disappeared. "...Finally." she said under her breath, letting Dmitry's fishy comment swim right over her head.

    Dmitry grumbled a bit, ignoring Lexa's transformation back to normal-ish and focused only on his precious fish, much like a cabbage-monger intent on protecting their cabbage. 

    "Yeah, well...I'm eating that fish, damnit!" He said, almost as if to prove some kind of point. Of course, nobody had told him he couldn't eat the fish, but that was beside the point. When Dmitry caught himself a meal, he ate it. So long as nobody got in the way of that, there wouldn't be a problem. There really wasn't anything else to it.
     
    Suddenly, more galloping could be heard, signalling the approach of a new and horrifying enemy. The wretched thing came flying out of the deepest bowels of the cavern like a bat out of hell, the world all the lesser for being in it's presence. It charged at the group with all it's might, letting out a shrill and terrifying war cry. Dmitry was truly at a loss of words, that much was certainly true. On the back of a horse that was imbued with the destructive properties of a storm rode the frightening, the ruthless, the psychotic; on the horses back rode...

    "Another fuckin' monkey..." Yes, the brutal foe before this intrepid group was one of the island's monkeys riding a local horse. At least the monkey seemed confident in himself. "I invoke the Great Wolf: Hati!" The ferocious spirit sprinted forth as soon as his body was spawned, tearing past the rider ans leaving one of his trade mark wakes in his, well...wake. Naturally the horse and monkey came crashing into the ground, sliding a few feet after. Before the simian could get back to his feet, Dmitry appeared on the other side of him, just before he delivered a hard and brutal kick that sent the furry bastard flying towards Lexa and his inevitable doom at her hands.

    Shortly after the fuzzy cannonball was away, the horse began trying to get to it's feet, struggling due to the unnatural smoothness of the stone beneath it's hooves. Before it could succeed, Hati tackled it back down and ended it's life with one swift bite to the neck, snapping it's spine like a twig. Dmitry then looked back in the direction the horse and rider came from, wondering what exactly these creatures were doing so far into this place. His eyes narrowed as his instincts began blaring alarm bells.

    "This place...what the Hell's going on here?"

    Swapping out the boss for 2x Platypodes

    L
    exa caught the monkey by the throat with a blank expression on her face. Lexa gripped the neck tighter as the simian tried clutch her wrists in an attempt to get her to let go, or merely out of pure instinct. As her grip got tighter, she heart a cracking sound coming from the chimp's neck but before it would snap, the silly monkey went and died on her. Lexa twisted the monkey to make sure it was truly dead, hearing the sound of its neck snapping as it spun. She nonchalantly tossed the being aside and began walking forwards as she heard more movement.

    "Fucking platy-"

    -disappears-


    Lexa was cut off by a blast of lightning being shot at her, forcing her to disappear and appear directly next to Lillian. She placed a hand on the small girl and disappeared again, reappearing behind a nearby rocky formation with her sister. "Stay put." she ordered her, smiling when Lillian nodded. Lexa reappeared over top one of the damn flipper footed creatures and slammed both of her swords in its neck. Another platypus walked out from the other end of the room and let out a loud clicking sound. The one Lexa was having fun with began charging a blast, hoping to at least use the force from it to get Lexa off, or kill Dmitry. Lexa jerked the swords, forcing her new pony to turn its head as the blast was released, causing the attack to slam into the other platypus. The one it hit turned to Lexa and began firing a shot, carefully aiming so it would only hit her. The on she was riding saw the attack and ducked its head. Lexa gave a slight smile as she'd already knew what to do about it. The other one fired at Lexa and she jumped in the air with her hands placed out, her feet both pressed on the ceiling, and her smile beaming bright and devious. The attack his the perdition barrier and due to the angle, instead of stopping, was reflected directly on top of the enemy platypus. Her two swords had shattered in the attack, so Lexa just grabbed the two hilts and charged the other one. The other platypus, slightly weakened by the first one's attack, seemed to be having a hard time getting another shot charged. Lexa slid next to it and rammed the jagged edge of the broken weapon along its back and cut the animal open. Once its spine was exposed, the slammed the jagged item against it repeatedly till it was cracked. The platypus stopped moving, either dead, paralyzed, or soon to be dead

    Dmitry straightened up at the sound of more movement around him, readying himself for another attack. Just as he and Hati looked around them, two more monkeys leaped up to attack them. The one heading towards Dmitry was immediately hit in the face with a wisp, followed up by two more wisps to the gut. 

    "I invoke the Twin Ravens: Huginn! Muninn!" The two smoke-like birds flew up into the air and circled around Dmitry as he drew the knife from his boot, taking the time he was given by the monkey's recovery time. By the time it got up and took another leap at him, the mage was already in the middle of throwing the weapon straight at the simian. As the the blade entered it's heart, the furry assailant was impaled by two more knives, the altered forms of Huginn and Muninn. As the monkey fell to the ground, Dmitry walked towards it at his own pace. Then he got to the heavily wounded animal, he pulled his tool of choice from it's gut, pulled down it's head, and plunged the blade into the back of it's neck, severing the vertebrae. The spectral knives embedded into either side of the primate's body disappeared as it ceased all movement.

    As all this was happening...

    Hati leaped off of the horse's corpse and rammed it's head into the gut of the monkey that was attempting to attack him, sending it flying as the wolf spirit slid across the ground upon landing. When he came to a stop, the animalistic mentor ran straight at the enemy while it was still down, running it over. Just as the poor little monkey thought that it would finally be allowed to stand upon it's feet again, Hati came barreling over and picked it up, clamping down hard with his powerful jaws. Like a dog with a new chew toy, he flung the furry ball of amusement side to side, sending it into a wall upon release. No longer could the monkey stand, having trouble just breathing before the wolf came to it, picked up by the neck, and gave it a final whip that snapped it's neck like the horse before it. Speaking of horses...

    "Hmm, guess that's all of the-" Dmitry didn't say another word, cut off by the trampling of his body at the hands, or rather hooves, of another lightning charged horse. As he rolled to a stop, the mage noticed he was next to the shattered remains of Lexa's swords, giving him an idea. As Hati charged in and apprehended the larger beast by grabbing it's hind quarters with it's teeth, Dmitry picked up the tips of the broken blades and threw them like any other knives at his target. While his aim was a bit off, he managed to lodge one in the outer area of the stallion's neck and the other in it's upper, front-right leg. This was all Hati needed to unhook him self from the horses ass and latch onto it's neck, slowly draining it of both oxygen and blood until it too died.

    exa saw Dmitry make clever use of the busted swords and take down the few enemies. She then turned to walk down the one hall the critters didn't come from only to find an enormous door. She tried opening it but it didn't move, she then disappeared in a burst of light with the intention of opening it from the other side. Suddenly, she reappeared smacking her face into the door. After slamming to the ground, Lexa rubbed her head and noticed the door had small circuit markings on it. She stood up and looked at the door, then her hand and placed it on the door. Applying a small bit of magic power to it, the door lit up and began opening.

    "We've wondered when you'd come to this place Alexandria..."

    A deep voice called from inside the room. Lexa's eyes narrowed as she heard it, the kind of look that let Lillian know she was actually afraid of something. Entering the room, Lexa saw nothing but a massive, feathery cone in the middle that Lillian walked up to and began touching out of curiosity. The cone of feathers formed a crack in it that expanded to reveal a massive bird with half its body in the ground. Lexa looked up slowly with a dumbfounded look on her face, backing up as her instincts told her to fucketh off. Lillian had instinctively grabbed onto the wings when they expanded, which lifted her high in the air. Something she thought was better than being tossed aside like a rag doll. Lillian lost her grip however and landed on the bird's head. It was so large that she looked like a tick amidst the gigantic feathers, her landing was so soft that the bird didn't even feel her. "It has been a great deal of time since you joined out family little one. But it seems that as all who belong here, your heart has lead you home..." the bird said while bringing its enormous beak directly into Lexa's punching zone. The tip alone was as large as Lexa, nevermind the rest of the beak... and screw the rest of the damn bird. "Wha-wh-wh...." Lexa said while being completely frozen from fear. "You were not born on this island my child... but rather, reborn." the bird said calmly. "C-can I a-ask you s-some th-ing..." Lexa said calming her nerves. "Of course, but after you must prove you have gotten stronger in your travels..." it said. "Those things outside... the platypodes to be exact... are they under your control?" she asked curiously. "Indee- WHA!" the bird began saying, but was interrupted by Lexa ramming her fist into the side of its bird face.

    Lexa's circuits had turned black, her ears and tail had returned as she had a look of hatred in her eyes. "Those fuckers..." she said as the rage grew in her. The two sword handles she once held disappeared, and black rose petals with dark purple glows began falling from the ceiling endlessly. "RIPPED MY SKIRT!!!!" she howled as her entire body began glowing black with her unadulterated rage. The level of wrath she was about to unleash was enough to make her malevolence something you could feel punching at your spine. The bird realized the fight had begun and got ready to attack himself. Lillian had formed a small magic circle on the bird's head, the spell was a curse she knew. Whenever the bird would use magic, it would take a bit of damage itself equal to half the damage it would deal to its target(s) and cough up some blood. With this one spell, it instantly made the bird a much easier enemy to beat.

    Dmitry groaned as the fight started, knowing full well he wasn't in any condition for close quarters combat. Unfortunately, he'd have to rely solely on his spirits this time, something he tried to avoid doing.

    "I invoke the Wretched Squirrel: Ratatosk!" From Dmitry's hand sprung a smoke-like rodent that leaped off and sped straight for the powerful poultry, crawling all over it's body and biting here and there to draw it's ire. As this distraction was happening, Hati charged in, jumped, and latched onto the bird, biting down hard enough to draw blood. However, despite the pain that the monster was in, it manged a swipe with it's wings that knocked the wolf clean past Dmitry, his form dispersing shortly after. Gritting his teeth, Dmitry prepared to summon another spirit to take his mentor's place in the fight, wearing down on his psyche.

    "I invoke the Stalwart Stag: Dain!" Appearing the same way as the spirits before him, the deer spirit charged forth and rammed it's antlers just below the spot where Hati had sunken his fangs, drawing a little less blood than the wolf. As Dain back up for another charge, the bird pulled back one of it's wings to destroy yet another spirit. However, before it could complete that attack, Ratatosk appeared just below it's eye. Going beyond it's usual mandate of hellish annoyance, the squirrel sunk it's teeth into the fowl orb, eliciting a cry of pain and causing the swing to miss. Needless to say, the buck's attack went straight into the same spot, bringing out an even greater cry from Thunder Chicken, destroyer of worlds. This time, Ratatosk could not stop the beak that impaled the deer, destroying it's form completely and forcing Dmitry to call upon another spirit.

    "I invoke the Gold Mane: Gullinburst!" At the call of his name, the golden boar sot forth and charged straight at the spot where Dain had attacked. As it rushed the feathery beast, it's tusks and mane glowed like the sun just before it hit the wounded area, causing the bird to finally reel a bit after the repeated attacks on it's abdomen. Dmitry knew this was the only chance he'd get and he ran just close enough to the creature to help Lillian down from it's enormous head.


    "Jump, kid! I got you!" He said, his arms held out in an effort to catch the child. Just as he said this, Gullinburst was destroyed by the giant thing's wing.

    A
    drenaline surged through Lexa's tiny veins as she saw her partner pulling out all the stops. Lexa pooled dark magic around her, focusing it as she saw Dmitry sending his summons at the great creature. She knew that he would be running low on magic by now, so by her losing this bit of health she could easily help him gain it back. An explosion of shadow energy sent ethernano all over the place, giving Dmitry something to pull magic from. A blast of light would form over Dmitry as Lexa altered the light around him slightly, this would begin pulling magic power into him naturally. Restoring the little bit of magic he had, while at the same time making it so he didn't need to use it. "Light Armour!" she shouted, encasing herself in light that would pulse and heal Dmitry just as her Light Alteration spell did. Next up, "Stargazer Armour!" she called, forming an ancient assailant's suit over her light armour. The suit gained power from Lillian and Dmitry's presence, her big sister complex relaying the power of the armour onto her allies granting the two of them the same defensive bonus.

    A blast of light went to the sky through an opening in the roof. At this time, Lillian saw Dmitry jumping to catch her, and knowing that spell all to well Lillian jumped. As she did, a set of explosions impacted the great bird, dealing immeasurable damage to it. She then disappeared, reappearing in front the bird's beak and slamming her fist into it. A shot of darkness rose up and Lexa disappeared, reappearing with her foot slamming down on it with a blast of light crashing down on the same area.

    The bird called in a mass of lightning and Lexa disappeared, reappearing near Dmitry with her arms spread out. The lightning slammed into her perdition barrier, mixed in with her Reflect spell. Due the the massive boost in power from her magic circuits, as well as her being in a position where she needed power the barriers were both considerably stronger. Still she strained to keep her barriers up, her arms buckling slightly as the closed. Lexa poured her strength into the barriers, the tips of her fingers began to have skin torn straight off. Lexa let out a scream as more power was poured in, this time the lightning was redirected directly to the large bird. It let out a scream as it took the full force of its own attack.

    "GUHAH!" 

    That was the elegant sound made by the charming and heroic Kazakov as Lillian's foot planted firmly into his face. The girl of course was fine, however, Dmitry would have to work through the pain, the giant thunder rooster imposing on his time of rest.


    "I really hate chickens..." Dmitry said as he got back to his feet, having been floored by Lillian's graceful landing. "I invoke the World Serpent: Jormangand!" Immediately upon appearing, the massive snake lunged for the spot where Hati had been latched earlier, sinking his own fangs in and injecting a nasty toxin while the bird was still reeling from having it's own attack thrown back at it. Dmitry's eyes closed as he focused his will for the next spirit he was about to call on, this being the first time he's used this spirit. The air temperature in the room began to climb as a primal force of nature was called into physical being.

    Play:

    "I invoke the Spirit of Fire:..." When Dmitry reopened his eyes, the silver glow of his pupils had now become crimson. "Salamander!"

    The immediate area around the mage became engulfed in what would appear to be a living flame, in that swirl around him in direction that constantly changed. Dmitry's face was now set in an enraged glare, the influence of Salamander affecting his emotions. 

    "Now, let's get started!" He shouted before charging his foe. Just as the birds was swiping through Jormangand, Dmitry leaped and clung to one of it's massive feathers. The mage was incidentally swung high up into the air, before the feather was dislodged and he came falling back to earth, aimed directly at the creatures head.  As he fell, he removed his knife from his boot and held it between his teeth, before aiming a fist that became wrapped in flames. Just as he was about to pass by the feathered head, Dmitry slammed the burning fist in between the monster's eye and eye-socket. 

    Naturally, the bird took exception to this.

    Screaming like there was no tommorow, it flung it's head left and right as it attempted to dislodge the still burning foreign object from it's eye, having little success due to the fact that Dmitry was now up to his armpit in socket. Bracing his feet against the massive face of his foe, he dislodged his arm up to the elbow for better control of his own motion and took Dark Fang from his mouth, gathering all the malevolence he could from the thing trying to shake him. He then swung the blade directly at the creatures eye, releasing the darkness only after the blade had struck...eye. The darkness released merged with Salamander's flame and tore through the avian orb, causing an even more violent reaction from it's owner that managed to fling Dmitry away.

    L
    exa took a moment to rest after her mass barrage of attack, watching as Dmitry got his hits in and began falling the great distance. A pair of wings sprouted from her back, adorned in blue magic circuits. A flap of the large wings and Lexa erupted from the floor with a look of absolute wrath in her eyes. "Dmitry!" she called while opening a hand up. She grabbed the man by his shirt, locking eyes with him for a brief moment as she spun him around and then flung the grey haired missile at the bird. Once Dmitry got another hit in, all the black rose petals began converging on Lexa's fists as a black and white light formed around them. She let out a scream of rage as she flew towards the bird's head, a trail of black rose petals fallowing behind her right fist. The wings dispersed and Lexa slammed her fist into the bird's head, square between the eyes causing a loud cracking sound to be heard. CASSIE, who had been maintaining Lexa's shielding through the endevour, began opening fire on the bird. It turned and shot out lightning at the mech which was dodged with a quickness. Lexa disappeared, reappearing on the side of the birds face, slamming a rosy fist into it again. The bird headbutted Lexa, which she happily took and grabbed hold of a feather to pull herself in. The bird began screaming in pain as Lexa used an ability to rip the magic power directly from it, just before it stopped struggling and started glowing a dark blue color. Lexa slammed her fist and realized the scar from her attack had healed over, and the bird was regaining its posture. She disappeared, reappearing on the ground as the bird stood tall. "All you know, is not what is..." the bird said, lifting up a wind to reveal a pedestal behind him. Lexa wanted to kick its ass and get revenge for her skirt, but she knew that she couldn't. She looked at the pedestal and disappeared, reappearing on the other side of the hole that separated one side of the cavern from the other. "And you..." the large being said addressing Dmitry. "You have brought one of my children to me, for that I will grant you my power. Be warned, it is not meant for human hands, but you have overcome a great obstacle in life so it is the only appropriate reward" it said before holding out a wing, at the top of the feather a ring materialized. Black in color with yellow glowing runes about it. As soon as Dmitry took it, the bird would erupt into black particles and an earthen bridge would take its place.

    A shriek of pain would interrupt the moment of brief peace as Lexa, and the pedestal were engulfed in a mass of electricity. A burning sensation seeped in from her bones, her muscles, and her flesh as her circuits were destroyed entirely. When the lightning had gone, Lexa's body would be left smoldering on the ground, the white orb melted to her hand. Atracrema appeared in a burst of flames running to her, screaming "A boat is approaching the island, here, I can get you all there much faster!" he shouted with a concerned tone while leaning down to let the people get on his back. CASSIE called from across the cavern "I can make my own way back, please take care of big sister." before turning away and racing back through the caves with Dmitry's fish. Once the group mounted Atracrema, they'd all burst into a quick puff of fire and appear at the shore watching an enormous vessel pull in and drop a metal plank on the beach. A group of men would rush down and grab Lexa and take her to get medical care with Lillian following as closely behind as possible. A woman on the ship would approach Dmitry wearing a black jumpsuit with her cleavage showing. "Thanks for helpin' our girl out. We'll drop ya back at Hargeon Mr. Kazakov." she'd say before strutting away with a glowing device in one hand.

    Dmitry eyes widened as he felt something grab his shirt

    "Whoa, wait a sec-" He managed to get out shortly before he went flying sideways at the bird he just mutilated. "SHIIIIIIIIIIIIT!" The bird let out a strange mix of a gag and a cry of pain as Dmitry crashed into it's throat back first, making a similar noise himself. About a second after he hit the feathery larynx, he began falling again and barely managed to cling to a pair of feathers like before. Just as the feathers began to loosen, the bird itself began to tip over over and fall to the ground. Climbing from feather to feather, almost losing grip a few times, until the giant thing was about thirty feat from the ground. Dmitry leaped as far as he could do the right, teleported about ten meters more, and grabbed the rightmost feathers, climbing as far up as he could after words before the bird hit stone.  

    After the dust had settled, Dmitry managed to make his way down the side of the massive creature, rejoining Lexa, Lillian, and CASSIE at it's head. What the bird had to say was confusing to say the least, but the mage was just glad that this was over or at least it seemed that way. Then Dmitry was even more confused when he was addressed by the dying creature and offered some kind of ring, apparently some kind of reward for his feats today. This seemed odd to him, as it seemed like the only things he accomplished were catching a fish, punching a bird in the eye, and becoming a human frisbee, all before nearly getting squished. Still, he took the ring all the same and even for someone with as much of a deficit for sensing magic power, Dmitry could feel the incredible energy this tiny object was producing. As apprehensive as he was about it, he would be a fool not to take it back to Lamia Scale to at least study. Just as Dmitry was ready to leave, Lexa began screaming in pain.

    "Lexa!" He shouted as he rushed to help her. However, when he got close to the girl, he was thrown back in a wave of energy. Dmitry's sight was blurry when he opened his eyes and his ears were ringing, barely taking in what the god had said. Stumbling to his feet, he moved over to Lexa, lifter onto his shoulder and managed to get them both onto the fox's back. After that, it was mostly a blur and it wasn't until he got back to Hargeon that realization struck him.

    "My fish!"
