Antankage's Office

[LoveableLou]

Growls at the new comer bearing her fangs. "Who the hell are you? And damnit i know what we're dealing with im just so pissed off!!!" Snarls very loudly.  

[Alexandromeda-Iris]

Um...
*looks nervously at Ketsu*
I'm, uh, I'm Alexandromeda... I was, well, I was "invited" here a while back... and I'm finally here.
*looks between the others, and at the book in Itatsume's hands*
Um, what's going on?  

[Iak-Kereshna]

*looks to Itatsume*
Well... I'm not quite sure. All my father ever told me was that he "found it" somewhere. I was never told where, though...
...
Waittaminute.
*reaches into a pocket, and pulls out a large, old, worn sheet of paper*
There was this... It's the notes my father made when translating what little he could... The more faded notes are before he summoned the dragons... and the others are from when he sealed them into the book.
...
And, well... that last note, in the bottom corner... It's what he believes to be the symbol on the cover of the book...
"Trials"
...
It is... difficult to explain much of it, of how we managed to translate portions of it... All I can assume is that he had something to base it off of... Something... where he found the book.
*looks at the book*
Hold on. Itatsume, may I have a look at the book again for a moment? Don't close it, let me see that page you have opened there...  

[LoveableLou]

"Hey Iak?" Calms down and stares out the window. "You know the woods back behind my house?..." Turns back around and looks at the book from where she stands. "The cavern behind the waterfall... The stone stairs lead to ancient ruins... i'm getting a feeling that place and the book has a connection... Plus that book smells like cold ice and stone just like the ruins..."  

[ChibiToraYuri]

Itatsume turns to look at Ketsu. "Take me there. Iak still needs rest." She looked around slightly nervous. "Alexandromeda, keep and eye on Iak, please?"

((OOC: Is book in Japanese..??))  

[LoveableLou]

"No we'll need more people if anything happens. Just ask Iak my territory is full of blood thirsty beasts that could provide a challenge for even you Itatsume-sama." Stares out the window. "I've only seen one symbol in the ruins and it says betrayal. I don't like that place as it is."  

[Iak-Kereshna]

*looks at the new girl*
{Alexandromeda Iris... where have I heard that name before?}

((OOC: No, basically, it's more or less supposed to be some sort of ancient, obsolete language. Like the Egyptian heiroglyphs, except a *lot* more open to interpretation. Long story short, assume everything that *has* been translated thus far to at least be *mostly* correct.))  

[Alexandromeda-Iris]

Umm... Alright! 3nodding
*looks around, then realises she's standing in the doorway*
Oops!
*steps to the side, then walks over to Iak*
So, umm... You're Iak?
{Hm... I'm sure I've heard that name before...}


((OOC: BTW, I just realised I forgot to mention it in that last post, leave the book. Let's just say that some of it *will* be translated in your absense. And I think Iak's regained enough chakra to at least be able to contain "them" within the book.

Oh, and to anyone reading who hasn't figured it out yet, I'm also Iak.))  

[LoveableLou]

"Hey new girl with the long name... Your name is Iris too right? I'm gonna call you that now got it?" Ketsu thought for a minute. "Itatsume-nee if you want to go then i can get Katsu,Saki,Kage,Miyu,And Maya to help if you want?"  

[Iak-Kereshna]

*barges in*
Iak! Are you alright? I just heard what happened...
*Iris is wearing a black turtleneck and tight black vinyl pants, her blue hair tied up in a ponytail, some of it dangling down over her tan face*

*looks up to Iris*
Yeah... I'm alright now...
*thinks for a moment*
Iris, think you could go with Itatsume and Ketsu? You're probably the best to really help at all...  

[Alexandromeda-Iris]

*looks at Ketsu, then at Iris*
Umm... I think to avoid confusion, just call me Alex...
*idly places a hand down next to Iak*  

[LoveableLou]

"Iak we need more than just Iris to help us you know and Miyu already wants to go already, and you know Maya will go if her brother does." Leans against the wall. "I'm more worried about Maya i know Miyu can handle himself... But this is worse than anythign we've handled before."  

[Iak-Kereshna]

Erm... actually Ketsu, I meant...

You shush, and get some rest. I'll take it from here.
*looks directly at Ketsu*
What he meant is that, since he is in no condition to help at the moment, of anyone he could summon to help, I'm really the only one capable of doing anything useful... I mean, Pansy is cute and all, but not much of a fighter yet. Dionaea's really just an overgrown kitten. And Daisy and Lilly, well... They're useful enough, but only if you can get past their constant bickering.
*yawns slightly*
Enough of that. If we're gonna go, let's go. Sooner the better.

Er, and Itatsume, if you don't mind, I'd still like to hold onto the book while you guys are gone...
*looks back to Ketsu*
The kids, well... You know them. They know each other. They can keep each other safe, don't you worry.  

[LoveableLou]

"Are you saying i'm incapable of handling this?" Growls at Iris. "Remeber i do have family i can bring... except for Kuro..." Looks down at the ground and keeps her black wolf tail held high her ears twitching.  

[Iak-Kereshna]

No, I'm not saying that... Erm...

*glares at Ketsu*
Iak, shut up for a minute. Let me tell her what you're actually thinking here.
*flicks her tail sharply*
Honestly, considering the friction between you two because of, well, recent events... He wants someone there who he can trust *completely*. Someone who trusts him. Someone who has been with him long enough to know what, exactly, any of this could actually mean for him.
