 *takes Prince Chid's hand and follows Allen and Millerna out of the room.* Um? Allen? Is Lord Van already in the castle?
OOC: oh, i think i ate too much candy! :) happy halloween everyone! yes! i too got my pics!
<<where's van?>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^  *gives her sister a worried glance as Folken heads back to his guymelf. quickly hops into hers.* I'm ready Folken-sama! my love, what has sadden you so? i wish you would tell me and i would do my best to fix whatever it is. i cannot stand to see you this way. please folken-sama, how can i make you smile again?
<<my love is so sad>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^  *hears dornkirk. with tears streaming down her face, manages to look up at him.* Those...those monsters...the ones that burned you...they...they killed... *covers her face with her hands, unable to finish. finally gets herself under control.* My eldest son is over there. *points to where Folken and the cat girls are.* I cannot take anymore bloodshed. *looks pleadingly at dornkirk* Folken listens to you. I know you sent him on a misson of peace. But you also said those horrible creatures work for him. Please, please talk with my son. Have him tell those...those monsters to...*shudders* I don't know, just have Folken lock them up somewhere so they can never harm anyone again.
<<talk with folken for me>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^  Looks at Miguel. "Hmmmm, you look unharmed to me. Can you stand?" Notices the sparkling feather. "May I see that for a moment?" Takes it from the dragon slayer and turns it over in his hands. strange, i sense a great loss with this feather. such sadness...such pain... Shakes his head and gives the feather back to Miguel. Hears Dilandau calling him. Snaps on his comm. "Dilandau-sama! Miguel is fine. Awaiting your instructions."
<<such pain....>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^  *waits patiently until the scientists have attended to all of his burns. looks back into his NOSE.* Uh? That's strange. Where did the draconians go? *looks around and sees Dilandau and the other dragon slayers heading back to the Flying Fortress.* I bet that fool had something to with them disappearing! grrrrrrrrr *looks back and sees the Crusade* Ah, they've reached Asturia! Well at least something is going right. *looks around some more and sees Folken.* hmpfh! *notices Varie.* Ah, maybe she can shed some light on the subject. I'll offer her my comfort. *projects himself to Varie.* Madam, *softly says and he creeps very close to her* what is it? Why do you weep so?
OOC: Okay, I'm done. Now I'm going back to the party. BTW - kchan - DEB wasn't kidding. Everyone here loves this game and Middle Earth as well! They're really impressed with your computer skills on the layout (so am I). Anyway, I got a friend who really wants to join Vision, but I'll email you later. Happy Halloween everybody! Don't eat too much candy!
<<heh heh heh>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^  *smiles as the winged people disappeared* VICTORY! *shouts in his comm* That'll teach them to mess with Dragon Slayers. Everyone, back to the Flying Fortress. Jajuka! How's Miguel? hmmmmm, i should tell Folken-sama about this. *tunes his comm into Folken's channel.* Folken-sama. We have runned into winged demons. They switched Miguel with a doppleganger. *giggles* However, the doppleganger as well as those flying creatures have been dealt with. Going back to the Flying Fortress.
OOC: HAPPY HALLOWEEN everyone! Me and Joe are having a good time. We've logged on to my friend's computer and showed our rpg to them! Everyone loves it! *__* Several want to join, but I told them that it's a closed game. But we took plenty of pics! I can't hardly wait until we send them to you. yikes! gotta go now. Joe wants to post.
<<take that you flying fiends!!!>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^  *stares blankly as Moleman disappears. hmmmmm, he's up to something. *looks back at the group. calls one of his men.* Watch this young man. When he's able, escort him to the castle. *smiles at Millerna, Prince Chid and Merle. offers Millerna his arm* Come, I will take you to your father. *leads the group to Eries* We are ready to disembark, your highness. *offers his other arm to Eries.* I would be honored if you would allow me to escort you too.
OOC: Hey kchan! I didn't forget the pics. however i have to wait until saturday to take them to be developed. it'll be sometime next week. ^__^
<<the perfect gentlemen>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^  *blushes a bit as Van stares and finally breaks it* Van..? *watches Van's wings go back* Your wings! !! *catches a feather and holds it* It's so pretty.. *feels a twinge of pain* Ah!! This feather..it's giving off sadness...extreme sadness..nooo... *drops the feather and covers her face with her hands* The sadness..the pain...ooohhh..
OOC: I've gotten lots of candy! Oh and I will send my piccy! I'm sure you guys will love my alien costum!
<<such pain>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^  *looks over at the sky* It was on fire sister...*looks over at Folken* Oh your wings...*sees him looking somewhat depressed and stops talking* Why does he look so sad? What happened? *stares at a feather floating towards Naria* Folken-sama.. *hears him say they need to go* Hai..Folken-sama. *walks towards her guymelef and hops in*
OOC: Yes, Happy Halloween minna-san!! MWREEOOOW!! I'm the black cat! Ok, back to the candy! ^__^
<<why are you so upset?>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^  *grabs the other arm of Miguel's guymelef* Ok, let's go! *starts to fly* I don't see any flying people... *frowns and continues upwards* Maybe they killed them all? Oh well. Man, Miguel's guymelef is wrecked...he's gonna be upset!
<<taking Miguel's guymelef out for a fly>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^  Weird. They've gone. Well good!! *starts to fly towards the flying fortress* I wonder why they kidnapped Miguel in the first place. I thought Draconians were dead or something...*shrugs and catches up with Dallet and Viole*
<<least they are gone!>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^  *puts a wet cloth on Amano's head and stands up* He should be better when he wakes up. *sighs and looks at Allen* You are aware we landed in the courtyard, right? *straightens her dress and gives him a slight smile* Father might be upset. Oh well. *grabs Prince Chid's hand and looks at Merle* Let's go then.
OOC: HAPPY HALLOWEEN! Ok, back to my party! ^^;
<<teasing Allen>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^  *stares up at the sky* For some reason... this causes me great sorrow... *his great ebony wings fade away* Oh... they're gone... *watches a black feather lazily drift down* I suppose... we should go. *straightens up and goes to his guymelef*
<<not talkative>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^  *pops up behind Allen* Millerna-hime! *smiles broadly at her* Did you know we've landed? I'm going to be off now, my lady, but I'll see you shortly!! *scurries off into the shadows* I want to see what that merchant is up to! He said something about a book...
<<I wanna know!>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^  *stands still for a moment, staring at the ground* Solid ground... I'm not dead... I'm not dead!! *looks up at Jajuka* I... Thank you!! *smiles gratefully at him* !!! *sees the situation in the sky* YEEEEEES!! Those horrible flying people! They're all gone!! *notices some of the sparkles are still lingering on him* What the? *picks up a single feather that's generating the sparkles*
<<weird...>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^  *gives Hitomi a long look, then turns his gaze back outside* They're... they're gone!! *his wings fade away, leaving white feathers scattered about the floor* My wings! They've gone back in... *looks somewhat distressed*
<<what's it all mean?>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *stares in horror at the carnage being done to her people.* NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO *looks over and sees her leader signalling for retreat.* they are leaving! they are going back. *watches tearfully as the surviving draconians fade away. looks at the shredded and burned members of her race as they too fade away. covers her face with her hands crying uncontrollably while slowly fluttering down to the ground. after several minutes, realizes that the attackers, if they saw her, now cannot. she is back to being invisible. covers her face and cries harder.*
<<waaaaahhhhhhhh>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *looks up and sees flames in the sky in the distance.* now that is odd. Folken-sama? Why is the sky on fire over there?
<<how strange>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *stares wide eyed as the liquid metal rips several of the draconians* What??? STOP YOU FOOLS!!! STOP!!!!!! *sees dilandau* I ORDER YOU TO STOP!!!! *sees a wall of flame coming right at him. instinctively retreats back to his chamber* Oh my...I'm in pain. *looks at his hands* I've been burnt! I'm hurt! *calls to his scientist and has them administer to his burns.* i shall kill them for this! i shall kill them all. *is struck by a thought.* wait a minute! dilandau did me a favor. i now know that i'm real in that state. real enough to carry out my plan with or without folken's help.
<<heh heh heh>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^  *sees Dilandau joining him and Viole. shoots his liquid metal at several of the winged people, nailing them. shoots some more trying to rip the wings off from the draconians. hears dilandau's comm and sees the figure of dornkirk. shudders.* Dilandau-sama is right. That thing is a demon! *continues his assault on the winged people.*
<<die you, die!!!>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Uncloaks his guymelf as he lands on the Flying Fortress. Gently puts Miguel down and jumps out of his guymelf. Goes to Miguel. "Are you all right? What happened to you?" Sees flames out of the corner of his eye. Looks over and sees Dilandau attacking the flying people. I hope Dilandau-sama isn't making a mistake.
<<what's going on here?>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *sees Viole's attack on the flying people. giggles. reaches both Viole's and Dallet's side. has an opened comm* Come on men! I think we've got them on the run! *gets ready to shoot his torch when sees the image of dornkirk.* What is that??? *looks at Viole and then at Dallet.* Do you see that thing that looks like...like Dornkirk-sama? It must be a demon!!!! *shoots his flame right at the image.
<<gaaaaaaaaa>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *smiles at Eries* Yes, your highness. *bows* I will go and get your sister. *walks back towards the planning room. hears merle's screams. takes off running. arrives just in time to see Millerna and Merle trying to carrying Amano.* What happened? *asks Millerna as he grabs Amano* Fainted uh? There's a bedchamber just to our left. I'll carry him there. Princess! Merle! Prince Chid! Please accompany me. *takes Amano to the bedchamber and lies him down on the bed. watches Millerna administering to him.* Princess, we've landed at your father's castle. Once you're done with him, I would like to escort you, Merle, and Prince Chid to your father. My men will look after this boy.
<<patiently waiting>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *keeps screaming at the top of her lungs until she sees Millerna* Oh Millerna! I'm so glad that you've come. This boy has collasped. Fainted? *looks at Amano and then at Prince Chid. smiles at Chid* I'm glad you're here too! Okay Millerna, I'll help you with this strange boy. I just hope that a bed is close by.
<<glad you're here!>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^  *smiles at Allen* It is good to be back! *pauses and looks behind her* Where is Millerna? Allen would you please bring her? I'll wait here. Geez, Millerna why don't you ever stay put? Do I have to nail your dress to the floor?
<<slightly irratated at Millerna>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *looks at Van's eyes* He looks so sad. I know he has to help them...but I just can't shake this bad feeling.. *sighs and puts on a fake smile* It's ok Van..I understand. Get Escaflowne and help them. Just come back ok? *pretends to yawn and lies down* I think I'll just go to sleep* I don't like this at all. Who would attack them and why? I hope Van will be alright...
<<ah..I can't say no to those eyes!!>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^  *goes into his merchant ship and starts rummaging around* I know I have it... I remember paying a pretty penny for it... but it was well worth it! A book on draconians.... Here it is!! *pulls out a vivid teal book and opens the cover* Yes! This is the book! Now if only I can find what it means when they all fly together like they were doing just now...
<<researching>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^  *clenches teeth for a moment, but hops into his guymelef without a word* Almost got sliced in half there... *rubs absently at the hand shaped bruises on his face and starts up the guymelef* Right, Guimel! Get the other side. *grabs one arm of Miguel's guymelef and waits for Guimel*
<<to shocked to think about it...>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *looks at Hitomi in surprise* Leave you? I wouldn't do such a thing. *shakes his head* I just can't believe... Ahhh!! *sees them being attacked by something! Oh no!! They're under attack! I have to help them!! *stops and stares Hitomi in the eye* I can't take you with me, you know. You need to get your sleep. But they're under attack...
<<after I just said I wouldn't leave you.... what am I gonna do?>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *almost has a heart-attack as Jajuka grabs him out of the air* WHAT??? *realizes that it's a concealed guymelef, and recognizes Jajuka's voice* JAJUKA! *clings tightly to the invisible hand* Thank God!!! I'm saved! I'm saaaaved!!
<<so happy!!>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Yea..I saw all of that. That was rather odd. But least it's far away! *stares out the window* We have landed...in the courtyard? *wrinkles her nose a bit* Why have we landed in the courtyard? *hears a scream and looks at Chid* Yes..I heard that too. Come, on, let's investigate! *grabs his hand and runs into a hall with many passageways* Hello? Anyone here? Why are there so many passageways? *sees Chid point down one* Huh? *looks and sees Merle and Amano* Oh no! *runs over to Merle* He's fainted!! Merle, help me get him up. We have to get him to a bed!
<<found Amano and Merle>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^  *watches an invisible hand take Miguel away* Look Aunt Millerna..that man is flying! *squints and trys to see more but he can't* Oh..I can't see anymore. *sees the ground* Oh! We've landed!! I think we are in your Castle! *smiles and stops and hears a scream* Do you hear that? *turns his head in the direction where it came from* I think I heard someone scream.
<<who is screaming?>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Gaaahhh!!! *jumps out of the the way and stares at the doppelganger's body* Well that is one way to kill it. *hears Dilandau's orders* Come on Gatti! We got work to do!! I hope Dildandau-sama didn't really want to hurt us...geezz...that was scary! *shakes his head and hops in his guymelef* I'm glad Miguel is safe though..
<<Uh, Dilandau-sama, that was too close!! ^^;>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^  Those angels are the ones behind this? Well they are going to pay! *flys past Dallet and shoots his metal claw out at the Draconians* DIE YOU CURSED MONSTERS!!!
<<causing havoc here!>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *is shocked by the sudden loud voice coming out of nowhere. gapes as the dragon slayer is grabbed away from the draconians who were holding him and flies away, almost as if he was in an invisible hand. looks back towards the others and almost has a heart attack at seeing dornkirk before her. is slow to recover and hears his questions.* Oh my! That man was one of my son's soldiers? Oh dear. He was attacking that small town and when the others saw that, they knew they had to do something to stop the killing. That's when they saw a doppleganger about to kill this young man. So, it seemed appropriate to yank this young man away from the doppleganger and effectively stopping the masscare of the town. *looks back at the flames in the distance.* However, I fear that they may have been too late for the townspeople. Ah well, we are on our way to the Mystic Valley. We are sparkling because we are getting close. Would you like to join us? You're very much welcomed.
<<join us>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *softly slinks up to Folken's other side. purrs gently in his ear.* I agree with Eriya, Folken-sama. You are not a demon. *lightly fingers some of his feathers.* Your wings make you majestic, if I may be so bold to say Folken-sama. You're a born leader. You could complete your mission even with your wings showing. It is you that commands others to listen, Folken-sama. I think your wings add to it. *snuggles lightly against him, purring more louder* However, if you wish to wait until your wings go back in, I would love to wait with you.
<<you're fine just the way you are>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *notices Miguel being rescued. realizes that it's Jajuka.* hmmmmmm *activates his NOSE and projects himself to the draconians hovering right by Varie.* Madam? *smiles at her shocked expression. notices the other draconians can see him too by their stunned expressions.* May I inquire as to what is going on here? See, that man you took is one of your son's soldiers. Why was he taken? Why are you flying? And although they are very pretty, what does the sparkles mean?
<<questions, questions>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *gets confused by the different communications. stops dead in his tracks, listening. sees dilandau slicing at something. flies upward and sees Gatti and Guimel.* Uh? I know Dilandau-sama wasn't slicing at them. *sees what's left of the doppleganger.* ugh! that thing is disgusting! *hears Dilandau's latest comm. looks up and sees sparkling, flying people in the distance.* they took Miguel?? Those angels??? Hmmmm, this doesn't seem right. Oh well. *follows Dilandau towards them.
<<we're going to fight angels???>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *hears Gatti's comm* GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR *is very close and sees the doppleganger. ignores everyone and draws his guymelf's sword and slices the doppleganger in two barely missing Gatti and Guimel. hears Jajuka's comm.* EVERYONE! Go after the winged people! How dare they take Miguel. Gatti! Guimel! Get Miguel's guymelf and take it to the Flying Fortress. Good work Jajuka! I'm going after those flying people. I'm going to burn their wings off! *takes off after the draconians*
OOC: Hey JubJub, you're from Spain!! Cool!! I live in Alaska!! Anyhoo, looking forward to the pics. The Day of the Dead sounds neat. Wow, I wish we would do something like that here. *__*
<<grrrrrrrrr, you people are dead meat!>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *smiles at Eries* It's good that we agree on something, finally *turns to Gaddes* Land the Crusade right smack in the middle of the courtyard! Easy now, easy! Good! We're here. *turns to Eries* Princess, allow me to escort you to your father.
<<we're here!!!!>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Catches up with the draconians. What? They're sparkling. No matter. Turns on his outside comm and booms "Drop that man! NOW!" Quickly grabs Miguel with his guymelf's hand from the startled draconians. Snaps on his comm to the others. "I've got Miguel. He's safe! I'm taking him back to the Flying Fortress." OOC: Oyjaline, you are very preceptive! Yes! The Day of the Dead is a spanish tradition. I'm from Spain! And yes! I will get photos made and send them to you.
<<won't attack you flying people if i don't have to>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Gah! He's past out! *tries to catch Amano as he falls to the floor. does manage to break his fall. looks around and sees no one in the deserted hall.* HELP! SOMEONE!! HELLLLLPPPPPPPPPP!!!!!!!!
<<help!>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *hears Gatti's comm* A doppelganger? CRUD! Then Miguel is up there! *stares towards the flying people and sees a bunch of lights* My eyes..what are they doing? *flips on his comm* Dilandau-sama do you want me to help Gatti and Guimel, or go after Miguel? I'm close to both..
<<awaiting your orders sir!>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *sits on the bed and watches Van look out the window* Why are they flying like that? And where did those sparkles come from? Van.. *stops and sees Varie flutter by* No way..was that his mother? Van are you alright? *has a sinking feeling* What if he decides to join them? What then? Oh no... *clutches the pendant and looks at Van* Van..don't leave...ok?
<<don't leave me...>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Folken-sama! Don't say such things! *goes over to him and grabs his hand* You aren't that..*tries to bit her lip*..you aren't a demon! *curls up on one side and purrs* I know you can't complete your mission with your wings out, so we will just have to wait until they go back in. I'm sure Dornkirk-sama understand.
<<Ack!! You are not a demon!>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ So many sparkles. *grabs Millerna's hand and smiles* Look, at them Aunt Millerna..they are so pretty! And Van is one of them! That is so cool! *turns his head and looks back out the window* But why are they carrying that Dragonslayer away? *opens the window and shouts* Hey!! Winged people!! What do you want with that guy?
<<trying to communicate with the Draconians...>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *sighs and leans against a tree, examining his wings* Still black, are they? But why? Why are they out? *notices the expressions of Naria and Eryia* Now, now... Dornkirk-sama was indeed out of bounds, but... he was just frustrated. I was to go to Asturia to prompt the wedding of the princess there, to convince them that we had no intentions of attacking them. Then I was to go to Freid to tell them that the kidnapping of Prince Chid was a complete mistake. My wings' sudden appearance could jeopordize the entire plan. There's no way they would listen to me if I came to them as I am. *looks distant* They would call me a demon...
<<he may be a traitor, but he isn't a demon!>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *coughs and jumps backwards, covering his mouth with his hand* He was going to eat my SOUL! *whips his sword forward to be directly beside Guimel's* You *cough* monster! *cough* Did you kill Miguel? You must have!! *coughs again and listens as the doppleganger speaks* What? You're telling me that you were hiding in here, planning to kill him, but when you grabbed him from behind, some winged people took him away, so you tried to take his place? LAIR!! *his hand trembles with anger* I should kill you right now... *remembers what Dilandau said before about Miguel being "up here"* !!! Could he be right? What was it Dilandau-sama was talking about? *drops down to the ground, grabs his comm, and flips it on* It's a doppleganger, Dilandau-sama! Miguel is being taken away by flying people! Guimel and I can handle the doppleganger... So go save Miguel!!
<<CRUD! I was wrong!>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *glances at Yukari as he holds Hitomi up* She's made herself so tired because of me... *looks greatly troubled as he opens a door to a bedroom* Rest in here, Hitomi. If you have any visions, tell me right a... *trails off as he sees the flying people out the window of the room* What??? *runs over and stares at the sparkly winged people* Draconians.... *flutters his wings a little*
<<What..?>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^  *looks vaguely at Merle* .... Van? The one with the wings? *feels his face grow hot* He took Hitomi away. I have to find her and Yukari! Ahh.. but my head hurts so much... I had a brick thrown at it. *falls to the floor, unconsious*
<<poor Merle...>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *sees sparkles begin to flutter around the winged people* That can't be good, that can't be good... Oh, I wish someone would help me... this is worse than being taken captive!! *looks down at the fading fortress and the far away ground* . If they decide to drop me... I am going to die before I even hit bottom. *squints as the sparkles get brighter*
<<what is going on??>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ I agree Allen, about you landing in the courtyard. *nods her head in agreement and stares out the window* But I'm not sure if Folken was planning evil. *sighs and looks at him* He is Asturia's ally after all. I do think it's best that we should get home though. Father is ill, and I don't want to be away from him any longer.
<<worried about Father>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *stares in shock as Miguel/Doppelganger attacks Gatti* Oh no you don't!! *grabs his sword and shoves it under the Doppelganger's throat* If you move, I'll slit your throat. Gatti! Move! Where is Miguel? Oh no..it didn't kill him...did it? *glares and spits on the Doppelganger* Where's Miguel?
<<angry, very angry>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *stops and looks at the moleman.* You see them too? *looks back out the window. notices that the winged people are disappearing into the horizon.* I think Lord Van should be more concerned about this. *squints her eyes and goes right up to the window.* That draconian, she looks like... *shakes her head* no it can't be. *looks again, but the figure has joined the others and is now too far away to see clearly.* could it have been Lord Van's mother? but...but she's dead, isn't she? *looks back and notices that Van has left the room, along with almost everyone else. runs out the door after Van and runs smack into Amano* I'm sorry. I was looking for Lord Van. Have you seen him?
OOC: Hey everyone! I got my camera. I'm pretty excited to! *giggles* And JubJub, are you spanish or from a spanish country??? I think the Day of the Dead is a spanish tradition. Am I right?
<<should i tell van that i saw his mother?>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *glowers at Folken* I leave the mission in your hands. *disappears back to his chamber* I didn't like the look on his face or those catgirls of his. *remembers their disobedence when he called for them as well as when he called for Folken.* Hmmmm, I think I better not count on Folken. He's been pretty irreliable lately. I wonder if he doesn't believe in the cause anymore?L *sighs heavily* Pity. Foken has been very valuable to me. It's a shame to lose him now. *looks through his NOSE. Sees the draconians, Miguel, and Varie* What? Hmmm, my plan will have to wait, this bares watching.
<<what are the draconians up to?>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *smiles and bows polietly to eries* Come princess. *offers his arm and escorts her to the comm room.* Gaddes! Are we there? Good! *turns to Eries.* Princess, I think it's dire that we land as close as possible to your father's castle. That's why I'm landing the Crusade inside the courtyard. It's vital that we beat Folken to your father. Who knows what evil he is planning.
OOC: JubJub, I'm too am excited about seeing you in your skeleton costume. The Day of the Dead? What custom is that from? I've never heard of it before. It sounds pretty neat.
<<Reaching Asturia>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *stomps the last house when hears Dilandau's orders about going to the flying fortress. takes off* Uh? Yeah I know. Whoever got Miguel will pay dearly! That's right! *listens to Dilandau's order about returning.* Man! What is going on here? First these people attack Miguel, then Jajuka sees flying people and now Gatti says he has Miguel. Man! Doesn't anybody know where Miguel is? *follows Dilandau to Gatti*
<<what's going on??>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *starts to follow after Dilandau* I'm confused. First Dilandau-sama wants me to find Miguel. Which I did..or at least I think I did..and then he says to follow those flying weirdoes. And I did that to...and now we have to go back to the ground? This is going to waste a lot of fuel, if we keep going back and forth. Oh well.. *stops as he sees something falling* Huh? *flys and catches it* It looks like a comm.. *looks up and sees the winged people flying off with Miguel* I don't care what Dilandau-sama says, that's Miguel!! I'm going to save him! *flys upwards*
<<got your comm...>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *stands by Millerna* You saw them too? *hears what Dryden has said and watches him leave* A book? Who would write such a book on this? *stares back out the window and sees the Draconians take Miguel away* I wonder what the winged people want with him...?
<<confuzzled>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Wait the night out? Naria and I haven't spent the night outside in a long while. This could actually be interesting. *gives Naria a smile and listens to Folken talking to Dornkirk* I HATE that old man now..he's making Folken-sama do all of this... *sighs and stares at him* I would gladly get rid of him...but for some reason, Folken-sama listens to him. Oh well...
<<nasty old man, making my Folken-sama do such things!>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Van? Yukari-chan? Millerna? *shakes her head and rubs her temple* I think I do need some sleep.. *gives them a weary smile* I'm ok though, so please don't worry. I just can't shake the feeling that something is happening. I'm so tired though... *stumbles and trips over her feet* Aaah..
OOC: Wow, I would love to see you in your skeleton outfit Jub Jub. Oh and btw minna-san, I have my camera prepared for Halloween as well! ^___^
<<sleep..need sleep!>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *stands beside Millerna, staring intently out the window* The Draconians are flying. I have a book on this on my merchant ship. It's docked on the Crusade. I'm going to go find it... I'll be back later. *bows as he exits the room and rushes to his ship* This is very significant... It may hold to the key to our finding Mystic Valley.. At last!!
<<We can beat Zaibach!>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *looks at Millerna and feels his face grow hot* R.. right! Rest. *sees the flying people out the window* Yeah, I definately need rest. *leaves the room and starts wandering though the halls* She was worried about me! .... Where's Hitomi and Yukari??
<<did I just get lost?>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *glances back and sees the tension brewing in the cat girls and gives them a strained smile* They don't understand my alliance with Dornkirk-sama. But it's alright. I know they won't do anything to harm him, because I would never tell them to. Well, Dornkirk-sama? I suggest I try to wait the night out and see if my wings will go back to the way they're supposed to.
<<But I will do as you order.>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *shakes a bit as he sees Miguel's eyes* It's another one.. a DOPPLEGANGER!! *the doppleganger lurches forward and grabs the sides of his face* AHH!! *drops his comm, with it still on, and grabs for his sword* NO! You can't eat me!!
<<I'll kill you first!>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *sees Dilandau's guymelef flying towards him* !!! He sees me! He's going to rescue me! *sees Dilandau fly downward again* AAAAHHHH!!! WAAAAAIIIIIIIT!! DILANDAU-SAAAMAAAA!! *is silent as he sees Varie approaching* More of them?? !! Hey, maybe I have my small comm in my pocket... *twists around so he can barely reach one hand into his pocket and pulls it out* H... Hey!! *sees the Draconians looking at him* Ahhhh.... Hey!! D... Dilandau-sama! I've... These... demons are flying off with me! Please come back... *his hand slips and the comm falls* Oh crud. *looks back at the flying people* Where are you taking me??
<<miserable>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Hears Dilandau's comm. The fools! Miguel is right there and they are getting further and further away! Turns on his comm to the Flying Fortress. "Wait for Dilandau-sama. I'm following the winged people." OOC: Hey guys. Did you know that Nov 1 and 2 is when the Day of the Dead is celebrated? That's when I get to dress up except my costume is that of a skelaton. We also will have skelaton candy and will decorate everything with skelatons. You see, this is when we celebrate our dead. Yes that may sound funny. Even though we morn our dead, we also celebrate that they have gone on to a better place. So, that's what I'll be doing. If you still want pictures of me, I'll be happy to send them.
<<i KNOW what i SEE!!!>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ I don't like that withered old man calling the my love of my life a moron *glowers at the image of Dornkirk* who does he think he is? Folken-sama is right. He can't go into Asturia with his wings showing like this! That old fool is blind as well as a complete idiot! I would kill him in a heartbeat, if Folken-sama ordered it. *sighs* Why does Folken-sama follow him? It seems to me that Folken-sama is the real power. He should just take over and let me do away with that gross thing.
OOC: Hey guys! I haven't forgotten! I'm also looking forward to the pics!
<<i wish you would kill that old cretin.>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *hears Gatti's comm* What??? Are you sure???? *turns to the other dragon slayers that are near him* FOLLOW ME!!! Gatti! We're coming over there! grrrrrrrrr, you better be right, Gatti. Miguel better be there and not being flown away somewhere! *with his comm still opened, barks orders* Jajuka! Don't take the flying fortress anywhere! Wait for ME! Gatti claims Miguel is here! I'm going to see! Someone is playing games with me and I don't like games!
OOC: Hey DragonOne, I wouldn't forget about this for anything in the world! As a matter of fact, I'm pretty excited about it!!! I can hardly wait!
<<no one hurts my dragon slayers but ME>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *looks out the window* Oh my! There are draconians flying! *goes after them, hurryiing as fast as her wings will allow.* Oh I hope they see me! I should be in shouting range now. HEY! WAIT UP! *sees them hesitating.* oh my! they heard me!!! * flies even faster. sees two of them coming towards her. flies right up to them.* Oh thank goodness! You can see me. *notices them smiling* What's going on here? Why are you flying and why have you taken that young man? *is very still as one of the draconians reaches out and touches her forehead. feels warmth and love. also hears the answers to her questions.* I see. I understand. *looks at the others disappearing* I will go with you.
OOC: Hey gang!!! Don't forget your pictures for Halloween!! I've got my camera!!! Looking forward to seeing everyone's pics! *__*
<<joins the crowd>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Sigh...Allen IS jealous of that guy. I knew he liked her... *snaps out of it and hears Dryden* I don't apreciate your look or your tone. *frowns and walks over to Hitomi* Who does he think he is?? I can't stand him sometimes!! *puts her hand on Hitomi's head* You seem ok, but I agree with Van. You need your rest. *smiles at her and looks at Van* Take her to a room. *looks over at Amano* Are you feeling well? You did have that nasty wound to your head. I think you should get some rest too. *hears Moleman* What are you talking about? *goes over by Merle and looks out the window* Oh my..flying people..
<<I see them too...>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *scowls and tosses the comm in disgust* What the HECK is wrong with Jajuka? I'm not drunk...that is Miguel, Gatti is holding!! *hops beside him and listens to him talk to Dilandau* Great..everyone thinks I'm an idiot now... *stops thinking and sees Miguel move* Ne, Miguel, are you ok? *sees Miguel's eyes flick open* Uh..*taps Gatti* That isn't Miguel...look at his eyes...*stands up and stares at the glowing green orbs* Who are you?
<<this isn't Miguel!>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ STUPID PEOPLE! *flys beside Dallet and destroys a row of houses* How could they?? How could they hurt Miguel?? I'm going to kill the whole lot of them!! *lands and starts to stomp on random houses and people* DIE!! *hears Dilandau and flies upwards* Dallet, did you hear Dilandau-sama? He found the things that hurt Miguel. Let's go!
<<how could you hurt my buddy?>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *follows Allen out of the room* Allen. *stops and stares at his back* Why did he leave out of the room so angrily? Does he like that Hitomi girl? *gives him a stare* I trust your judgement...*sighs and walks past him* Though I don't think peace talks are such a bad thing... *looks at her hands* Why? First he likes Marlene, then Millerna and now that other girl. And they seem to like him as well. What do they find so appealing about him? He is handsome...but such a playboy...Well, I won't let him have his way with my sister. *smiles and turns around* Shall we go then?
<<er..thinking about Allen>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *goes over to Merle* Uhhh... Everyone shouldn't be leaving the room, you know!! This girl is right! *stares out the window* HELLO?? *sees that Allen, Van, Hitomi, and Yukari have left* Ummm... *looks down at Merle* I'll go get them back! Everyone, come look at this!
<<Merle ain't kidding!>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *listens to Dilandau's comm and responds* Uh, Dilandau-sama, I hate to contradict you, but... *stares down at Miguel* Miguel IS right down here. I'm looking straight at him. Guimel is right, sir. *sees Miguel stirring* He's waking up, actually. Hey Miguel! Say something to Dilandau-sama!
<<don't pick on Guimel!>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *glares at Dornkirk and stiffens* EXCUSE me, but I don't think you've managed to present yourself in such a way that you look like a friendly being. Ahem. I WILL complete my mission as you ordered me to. I have, however, encountered some problems. My wings have seem to have sprouted with no cause whatsoever, and I cannot control them. *stares coldly at Dornkirk* And I somehow doubt, Dornkirk-sama, that the Asturians would accept peace offerings from a draconian. ME, a moron?? He's the one that lives in a nose!!!
<<don't embarass me in front of my cats!>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *sighs* I was right. Zaibach is sending Folken to Asturia. *looks over at Eries and Millerna* We had better hope that your father doesn't listen to him. Or that we get there first... *looks at Amano, who is standing by him* Interesting.... He seems to be having some problems with that playboy knight as well. *smiles at Amano* Just ignore Allen. He doesn't understand what "off limits" means. *gives Millerna a look.*
<<Though she HAS been agreeing with me a lot...>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^  Ahh! Wait! *gets up and goes after Van and Hitomi, and grabs her other arm* Hitomi-chan.. *looks at her with a worried expression* You look so weak! And what's with everyone acting all huffy all of a sudden? *gives Van a strange look* Don't these people know how to contain jealousy? Sheesh!
<<so BOTH Amano and that knight like her now? Siiiigh...>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *shoves Amano's arm off of Hitomi's shoulders and stands somewhat close to her* Allen is going to get us to Asturia very quickly. I will wait for my brother there. Did my mother seem alright? *steps his way between Amano and Hitomi, smacking him with his wings* Oh.. sorry. *flutters them a bit* Here, I'll help you find a place to rest. *helps her to stand up and holds her arm lightly as he begins walking out of the room* Merle! C'mon.
<<Don't get so close to her!>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Gah! *looks digusted at Folken's fear of him* What a fool! First he failed at bringing the pendant back and now it looks like he's going to fail his mission! *follows them down to the ground. goes to Folken* Listen to me you moron! I am Dornkirk! I am projecting myself to you! Now I need you to complete your mission. Are you going to do it or not? I need to know if I can count on you.
<<well???>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *is relieved at Guimel's comm* Those idots! Come on men! We'll make them pay for what they did to Miguel! *stops short hearing Jajuka's comm* What? Miguel's with winged people? Jajuka! What are you talking about? *looks up and sees the last of the winged people flying away* He's right! There's Miguel! He's up there! Everyone! Back to the flying fortress! We're going after them. And once we get Miguel back...WE ARE GOING TO KILL THEM!!!!!!!
<<grrrrrr Guimel...grrrrrrrrr>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *squeezes Van's hand.* Oh Lord Van, your mother is all right. *smiles at Hitomi* And it seems that your mother is right here, with us, right now. *looks around hoping to see Varie. Instead, sees winged people out the window carrying a...eyes widen...* Lord Van! *points to the window* Draconians and they have a dragon slayer!
<<yikes>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *is relieved that Hitomi got her message. is a little alarmed at Allen's tone when mentioning Folken.* oh dear, they are enemies. i can tell. and allen schezar is one of the best knights around. if he gets a hold of folken first...i just can't think about it. *flutters over to Van.* oh Van, you must go to Asturia. you must save your brother.
<<van! save folken!>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ In the middle of landing when hears Miguel crying out. Jerks his head upwards and sees winged people carrying Miguel away. What??? Hears what Guimel said. Snaps on his comm. "Dilandau-sama! Don't listen to that fool! I see Miguel up here. Winged people have him. They are carrying him away. Guimel must be drunk." Goes after Miguel.
<<or i'm drunk...one of us is...>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *hears Guimel's comm* What in the world happened to Miguel? *feels extreme anger towards the people of Castmela.* If they've harmed him, I will kill them all!
<<grrrrrrrr don't you harm dragon slayers>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *gently takes Folken down to a clump of trees.* oh my poor folken-sama, what is wrong with you? What ails you so? *snaps on her comm* Sister? Did you see that strange apperation of Dornkirk? Do you think that's what has our poor Folken-sama so upset?
<<poor folken-sama>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *looks bemused at Amano's outburst about Hitomi* I don't think, *he quietly says* that anyone forced Hitomi to go back into her trance. *hears what Hitomit said about Folken* Folken's going to Asturia? That's not good. *looks at Eries and at Millerna* Princesses, I don't think that Asturia is in any danger, but I believe your father may be fooled by Folken. Millerna? Please administer to Hitomi. *looks back at Amano* She does need to lay down. *sees Hitomi coming too. feels pains of anger at her blushing at Amano.* Gaddes! We need to hurry to Asturia. *leaves the planning room in a huff*
<<blush at that little peepsqueek will you?>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Hai..Hai..Folken-sama! *follows Naria while carring Folken's guymelef* How did Dornkirk do that? That was soooo creepy!! *shudders at the memory of the ghostly image of Dornkirk* Poor Folken-sama. *watches him on Naria's guymelef* Why did he go on her melef? Why not mine? *pouts and continues to fly*
<<beyond freaked here!>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *helps Gatti pull Miguel out of the guymelef* Oh man..he really looks messed up. I'll check to see if he has a pulse. *puts his fingers up to Miguel's throat* Well he is breathing and his heart seems normal..not that I'm a doctor or anything. We should get him back to the flying fortress. I'll contact Dilandau-sama. *hops in his guymelef and turns on the commo* Dilandau-sama, we found Miguel, but he's unconcious. Gatti and I are going take him back to the fortress.
<<why are you unconcious?>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *sees Guimel and Gatti below* They found Miguel's guymelef! *is about to land but hears Miguel* Wha..? *turns to look and sees an apparition of Miguel* MIGUEL?? What happened to you? Are..you a ghost?
<<freaked out>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *listens to Varie* So you don't know why his wings came out. *gives a small smile* I think they are beautiful too..*blinks* Folken is going to Asturia? To have peace talks? I will tell Van that..thank you very much! *feels something around her and snaps out of her trance* Eh..? *turns to look at Amano* Amano-senpai? *blushes at bit* I'm..I'm ok..*looks at Van* I..I saw your mother again...Why does Amano-senpai have his arm around me? Was he that worried? Oh..geez..I hope I'm not blushing..
<<a little flustered here!>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ H.. Hai, Dilandau-sama!! *flies down quickly and lands beside Guimel* Guimel! *hops out as well and sees him trying to open the door* It's stuck? We need to get Miguel! *also pulls on the door and hears it screech horribly as the two of them yank it open* Miguel?? *sees an unmoving Miguel* MIGUEL! Guimel, help me pull him out!
<<please be breathing...>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *glares at Allen and puts an arm around Hitomi* Hitomi? Are you okay? C... can you hear me? Please, don't do anything that's going to get you hurt. You've already passed out. You're on the verge of exhaustion. *glares over at Allen again* She won't open her eyes. She needs to get to a bed, instead of you people using her for this strange ability she has. You made her feel guilty, so she's gone into a trance again!
<<(yeah, like they MADE her do it... ^^;;)>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *opens his eyes and finds himself flying above everything* AHHHH!!! *sees the other dragonslayers a short way below him* WHAT THE HECK?? *looks around and sees misty flying people carrying him* Who... who are you?? What do you want with me?? Am... Am I dead? WHERE ARE YOU TAKING ME??? WHO ARE YOU??? WHAT are you?? HEEEEEY!! *yells as loud as he can in hopes the others can hear him* I'M UP HERE!!
<<I'm being abducted!>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Ahhh... *flies backwards in shock* Get away from me, you cursed apparition! *lands and crouches on top of Naria's guymelef* (because it was closer, mind you.) We need to land. There's something... something wrong with me, and there's a... a... ghoul creature there. *looks down and sees a forest below* Come, let's go down there and take cover for a while.
<<this is too creepy!>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Ahhh, everything is going as planned. *looks back through his NOSE and sees Folken flying without his guymelf* What??? He'll ruin everything! What's he doing? hmmmm, i can't even contact him with the comm. *eyes wide* Wait, I can contact him! *uses the enhancer and projects himself to where Folken is flying. Goes right in front of him* Folken! Folken! Can you hear me! You must stop this and complete your mission!
<<will it work?>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Uh? *looks in surprise at Dilandau's new orders* Miguel was attacked? *looks back towards the burning city.* I don't see anything. *powers up his liquid metal, following Dilandau, starts tearing up the few buildings that are left.*
<<Miguel?>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Hears Dilandau's latest communication. Miguel was attacked? Hmmmmm, this isn't good. Turns to a guard. "Something strange is going on. Castmelans don't have a weapon that would bring down a guymelf. Someone else attacked Miguel. You man the comm and get the other guards on alert!" Jumps into his guymelf and takes off, heading towards Castmela.
<<something funny going on here>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *squeezes Van's hand and gives him an encouraging smile. however, Van doesn't see her because he is intently watching Hitomi. turns to Hitomi* Oh Hitomi, I hope you can contact Van-sama's mother again. He needs to know if she's all right.
<<oh Lord Van, you are so worried>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ No! Hitomi! *glances at Millerna* She's too weak to attempt this again. *softly curses as Hitomi goes ahead. hears what Amano said. gives him a glance* I think, *he softly says trying to contain his anger,* that we have more important things to worry about besides your appearance! Yes you do resemble me and your friend, *smiles at Yukari* resembles Millerna. Things like that do happen. Right now, I think we should concentrate on what is happening here, right now. *looks back at Hitomi and then at Van* Van, Dryden is right. Whether you're draconian or not, it doesn't matter to us, to me! You are the King of Fanelia and always will be. *looks back at Hitomi*
<<please be okay Hitomi>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *hears everything that was being said.* oh girl from the mystic moon, you must hear me. *flutters over to Hitomi and grabs her pendant.* Can you hear me? I'm here! I'm with you and Van! I don't know what's going on with Van's wings, but tell him that they are beautiful! They have always been beautiful. Tell Van not to worry about me. I'm fine. However, I think he should continue his journey to Asturia. His brother Folken is going there. My poor Folken is trying to make peace with the King of Asturia and will attempt solidifying his relations with the Dutchy of Fried. Tell Van this is a good time for him to contact his brother, to try and make Folken come back to him...to us! Will you give him my message?
<<a message>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *watches Hitomi try to reach Varie* She's trying again? But she just fainted from doing that! *frowns and looks over at Amano* I think it's just a coincedence that I sound like your friend and you look like Allen. *smiles and laughs a bit* Though I do find it odd...I don't think it's such a bad thing! As for Chid-ouji seeing flying people...or this dealing with Van's mother..I'm not sure.. *turns to look at Chid* I wonder why Chid was the only one who saw them...what does all of this mean?
<<trying to explain things...>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *feels a bit flush and looks at her hands* Wow..he looks so cool with those wings. I wish I could see them more often. Ack! He's looking at me..better answer quickly.. Ummm it could be because of your mother... Though I don't sense anything. Let me use the pendant. *clutches the pendant and closes her eyes* Varie? Varie are you here? If you are, do you know why Van's wings came out?
<<trying to reach Varie again...>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *looks in strange bewilderment from Van to everyone else* So let me get this straight- that little boy saw winged people flying out the window, and your hidden wings suddenly sprout? And this all happened after you talked to your dead mother? *sits back down in a chair* Wow. But that still doesn't explain why this... knight, Allen, was it? Looks just like me with long blond hair. Or why this princess here seems an awful lot like Yukari. Or what any of it has to do with our being kidnapped....
<<nothing makes sense, you realize.>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *looks down at the floor for a while, struggling to find words* Everyone... *looks over at Chid quickly* What? *goes over and kneels down to eye level with the boy* You saw more people like me? *goes over to the window and stares for a long moment* There's only one other person like me as far as I know... My brother. Otherwise... I didn't know there were more draconians. *turns around again, and looks at everyone* I... I don't know why they came out. I've always been able to control them before, but now I can't put them... er.. "away". *goes over and takes Merle's hand absently, staring now at Hitomi* Do you think it's because we contacted my mother?
<<do you sense anything?>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *watches Folken fly* I agree sister. I guess we should just follow Folken-sama. Oh Folken-sama, why did you decide to fly like that? I love your black wings, but I think it's a little dangerous to do that, so close to Asturia...perhaps you are ill? Folken-sama? Are you ill? Do we need to go back to Zaibach?
<<worried about Folken-sama>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *hops out of his melef and grabs the brush* Oh thank heavens! A brush!! I must repay Dallet! *hops back in and hears the last part of Dilandau's orders* Huh? Why are we going back? Oh well! I thought we should have level the whole place!! *smirks and follows Dilandau and the rest back to Castmela*
<<I got a brush I did!>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *stares at Van in disbelief* Yo..you..look like...*runs over to him and smiles* You look like those flying people I saw just a few minutes ago...*points at the window towards the moon* I saw them flying..but they are gone now.
<<are you related to them?>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Dryden's right Van! There is no reason to be afraid. We aren't going to hurt you, because you have wings. Now let's try to figure out why they came out. Again, I'm agreeing with Dryden. What a day!
<<Van, let us help you!>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *flys out of the way as Miguel comes crashing down* Wha..? *flips on his comm* MIGUEL? Can you hear me? *hears Dilandau new orders* Well this is a pickle. Should I follow Dilandau-sama and let Shesta and Gatti help Miguel? Or should I just help Miguel, since I'm right here? *sighs and lands in the burning city* I guess I look for him...what if they are too late...and Miguel is.. *shakes his head and hops out of his guymelef* Miguel!!! *runs towards the flames and searches for him* There's his guymelef! *runs over to it and tries to open the door* Mphf...it's stuck!
<<you better not be dead...>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *hears Miguel. turns around just in time to see him falling into the burning city.* What? *snaps on his comm* Miguel? MIGUEL!!! *addresses the others* They must have attacked Miguel! Those insollent fools! Well, they won't get away with this! Shesta! You and Gatti go get Miguel! The rest of you, follow me! We're going to level what's left of Castmela!
<<DIE!!!!!>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *turns away from the window* This is so strange. I don't see anything unusual. Why, my son, are your wings out? *smiles at what Dryden said.* Oh my precious boy, you are so lucky to have such good friends. *looks over at Hitomi* i wonder if that girl and her pendant have anything to do with this?
<<hmmmmmmm>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *is shocked to see Folken just fly out of his guymelf, especially so close to Asturia.* Folken-sama! What are you doing? *looks at her sister* Eriya, I think we should follow him. *looks at the guymelf she's still holding.* And I think we should bring his guymelf along just in case.
<<folken-sama?>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ They... I have no control over them... *opens the door to his melef and flies out* What... what is this strange pull...? Why am I compelled to just... fly?
<<so strange...>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *stands back up immediately, smirking to himself* He may have just put a dent in my melef, but he listened anyway. *sighs* I don't like being called a coward though... oh well. *heads back up when he sees Miguel heading DOWN* Ehhh? *sees the melef crash into the burning city* MIGUEL!
<<Why???>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Van... are you alright? *stands up and studies him for a long moment* You're... a draconian, huh? *smirks* Wow, to think that the people of the fabled past are real. I've always hoped to find them... What's wrong? You needn't back away from us. *looks around at each person in turn* You are still the King of Fanelia, and our valuable ally against Zaibach. This doesn't change anything. But... why are your wings visible now?
<<you seemed just as shocked as we are...>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *turns on his comm so only Guimel can hear* Hey, we'll do something later to get Dilandau-sama to like us better. *starts to fly back to the fortress beside Guimel when his guymelef suddenly malfunctions and he falls a LOOOONG way down* Gyaaaaa! What the??? *crashes into the flames of the city*
<<HELP!>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *is delighted to be back with Van. softly flutters over to him. is shocked when his wings suddenly spring out from under his shirt.* What? *sees Van creeping away from the others. Oh my poor son, now they know your shame. *looks out the window* But why are your wings exposed? Are the Draconians flying?
<<what's going on?>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *sees Folken in trouble* Folken-sama! *races and grabs his other arm.* Folken-sama! Your wings are out! Your guymelf can't handle that. Maybe you should put them back in, Folken-sama?
<<uh, your wings are showing>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ *laughs quietly to himself over his plan and the way he handled Van's mother. takes another look up his NOSE.* What??? *sees Folken going down in his guymelf* What's with Folken's wings? Why is he using them now? The fool! He can't use them and the guymelf at the same time! *adjusts his NOSE and goes to the planning room on the Crusade.* What??? both Folken's and Van's wings are exposed. And I can tell by Van's expression that he didn't mean to show them. hmmmmmm, this can only mean one thing.
<<The Draconians are Flying>>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
