Welcome to Gaia! ::

(( It's OK, I was needing a short break too. biggrin ))

Sera was move or dragged, into the battlefield. She isn't sure what is Zane's plans, but he told her about something earlier. The darkness not only seems to cloud her vision, but also her mind and consciousness itself. This isn't Zane's fault, her mind is playing tricks with her. She could hear sounds though, of the battle going on around her. People shouting, the clanging of weapons, rumble of the earth, sizzling of the flames, blowing of the wind, and the flowing of the water. What was not heard, but is still there, is the darkness. As they continued to pass through the battle Sera felt a surge of power from somewhere, she was losing control, having the urge to go face that power. Her red book was trembling in her hands, not out of fear, but with bloodlust. The book trembling was the only thing telling her she is still awake. For some reason, the image of the girl with the shifting iris appeared into her mind, Ash. Sera dismissed the thought, she didn't like Ash as much, so she wondered why she would think of her now. Sera didn't like this urge at all, the sudden influx of emotion, it was like her brother and sisters. All of them were barbaric. "I think wherever you are going, you should move faster." Sera spoke in a strained voice. "I think there is something wrong with me."

((Haha at least you aren't stuck until the entire attack is over. emotion_drool ))

((Yeah, I was faced with a decision and I made that decision. Now I must wait.))

Sebastian looked over the fallen master with a mixture of disgust and curiosity at the boy. "You fight well, and strong," he said. He knelt down to the young man. "You are lucky that I have a code of honor. Not many do in my world." He stood again. "I will fight you again, someday, water master. But not today. I will not strike you will you without a fair blow." He smiled. "But, I believe that you are past your capacity...." With that, Sebastian took the hilt of his sword and knocked it on the back of Maverick's head, knocking him out.

((wolf, Okami left.. >.> Sorry friend. Cheese, clever biggrin I like it shame I ahve to not let it succeed :/ being the main villian and all... And Tammy I read your post but all I saw was "I would sooner destroy a stain glass window than an artist such as yourself." *walks behind* "but since I can't have you following me either" *thwomps on head with hilt of sword then leans down whispering* "Please understand I hold you ih the highest respect"...I've watched Princess Bride to much....))

Maverick looked up at his foe, feeling helpless and defeated but accepting defeat. He had no energy to respond to the man's statements just panting trying to catch his breathe before he felt a thud on his head and then nothing but darkness.

Rhonin smirked as the child fell straight down. He listened as she made the platform and made stairs and heard her run up all the way to the top. Then silence, he chuckled to himself just ever so slightly waiting for the girl to dive down "You are much to noisy. You will never stop the shadow that way you silly girl" He blocked her blade with ease before knocking it out of her hand and holding her in the air by her throat. "Tell me, how does it feel to fail, to truly realise you're outmatched, do you feel fear yet?" He pierced his blade through he shoulder before tossing her away.

(Well, that just put a damper on my plans.)
Hang on a moment longer. He told Sera telepathically since she was in his shadow. He made his way across the battlefield unseen but to his dismay, he arrived a bit late. Maverick already laid unconscious on the ground. He would have to target on of the others but with the way the attack was going he didn't want to takeout someone who was still relatively healthy. He looked back at were Maverick laid. Knowing what some of the members of the cult was like, it would be unsafe just to leave him there. He would also have to let Sera out soon. Zane ended up throwing Maverick over his shoulder. This made moving unseen much harder. Still, all he had to do was make it to the wall of the school building.

((...how dare she leave without saying goodbye first! So does that mean we're just gunna like kill off her character or something?))

Jake sighed as he felt that his last air spirit went away. "Would love to hear your answer but I have to go." He told the student as he sprinted back to where his spirits were. Thankfully there weren't very many people. He would probably wouldn't be able to take on very many more than the amount present in front of him.
