Welcome to Gaia! ::

Aside from Firon's sarcastic statement all Hunter heard was the rumble of thunder from what sounded like a ways off. He turned toward the dragon with an expression on his face that was half-serious and and half-joking, hoping he could make sense.

"Three things: One: You're an ally and trust me when I say we need as much help in this rebellion as we can get right now. Two: you're a friend and as Dante and Rae will tell you I only make those joking remarks to those I consider my friends. Three: (and probably the most important) if anybody's going to beat you senseless it's going to be me when we spar after this is over" Hunter said, pointing to himself after the last statement and letting a small and quick grin break his face, "Besides, I've seen too much death and pain in the past four years of creatures that didn't deserve it and I couldn't do anything about...this is the least I could d-"

A flash of light and large boom followed by an earthquake stopped him mid-expliantion and after he caught himself he looked at the open door with the two girls outside and then turned to the dragon, tossing him something wrapped up quickly before turning to the door with ears flatted and all of his muscles tense, like a wild fox about ready to pounce.

"I found that mixed up with the blankets and crap in the building I was exploring," He said as he made his way to the door, his own sword drawn, "I'm sure it's not exactly your style and choice of weapon, but right now we could really use your help in fighting whatever is out there if you feel up to it."

Hunter stepped outside in what now was cloudy darkness and nodded to Re'nah and Sierra as he saw the mass of skeletons rising up out of the ground and growled ferally, waiting for them to make the first attack on the small group.

Day 4 continued: So the dead are rising?... well that’s original….
Lucy watched as the last member of the group entered and introduced herself before attempting to put the dragon back together. All of them seemed to get along even the fox wasn’t as cross as he was before to his rival. Things were starting to relax and calm down, Hunter had even started to crack jokes, but it didn’t last. The weather suddenly made a turn for the worst and all of the suddenly Hunter and Rae'nah darted outside. He saw through the open door that something freaky was going on outside. Despite the situation he remained perfectly calm as if nothing unfortunate could befall him. He morphed into his humanoid form and continued to sit next to the dragon “so this will undoubtedly turn into a skirmish, how about we partner up?, it doesn’t look like your in a good enough condition to fight but i don't wanna under estimate you, so how about it, you watch my back I’ll watch yours?” He proposed to Firion

Sierra had never gotten frustrated during a battle, but this is ridiculous even for skeletons, slashing at them did hardly anything but slightly cripple them. One of the skeletons near her were frozen by Hunters' attack, a thought occured to her her and she swung her sword at the frozen skeleton which shattered into a million pieces. She grinned at the results and attacked the skeletons after Hunter had attacked them to make sure they stay down for good. She never was one for teamwork but if something didn't work your own way, well there wasn't really any other options.

Mend followed the the group and made it too what seemed like a ghost town. He looked around for a moment and heard a fight going on. Mend then ran toward the sound and shape shifted into a little boy so he can can have the element of surprise. When Mend reached the group it seemed like they were fighting a horde of skeletons, and they seemed to be at a bit of a struggle. The little human boy walked up to them and remained silent. He then transformed into his original form and his six dark tentacles reached out and grabbed the skeletons around a girl (Re'nah) and lifted them up high above and smashed them together, shattering them to dust. A few skeletons started to climb out of the ground underneath Mend and reach for him legs to grab him. Mend kicked their arms away and ran away from them and lashed a tentacle forward picking one out of the grab and slamming it onto another skeleton.

He felt like he was doing a great deal of effort until one skeleton crawled underneath him when his gaurd was down and grabbed hold of his leg. He looked down and tried kicking it away but its grip was too strong. Soon after another one started to crawl out to reach for his other leg.

Mend Shook his leg more and finally lashed a tentacle down and pulled the skeleton up out of the ground. The force made the skeleton let go but left deep cuts on his leg, letting black blood ooze out. He threw the skeleton he was holding and hopped away before the other skeleton could reach out to grab him. "How irritating." His voice seemed like a loud whisper. A skeleton behind Mend then sliced off one of his tentacles. The tentacle fell to the ground and faded away. Soon after another tentacle replaced it and Mend turned around and kicked the skeleton. Soon after another skeleton came and sliced his arm deep.

Mend stumbled back slightly putting one large hand over his wound on his arm. He thought about if this would ever end. They are not that tough its just that there are so many of them. He thought to himself. He kept dodging the other skeletons to rest up a bit to try anything powerful.

A lot had happened, and obviously they were getting nowhere fast, for every one Hunter killed (if you could kill an undead) two more took it's place. It wasn't until he heard both Re'nah's scream of pain and Sierra's battle cry that he snapped out of his battle trance and looked in that direction before another wave of skeletons came towards him.

"Okay, this is starting to get really old and really annoying" He sighed in frustration, drew his sword, charged it with fire and swung it in an arc towards Re'nah's scream, causing the skeletons in it's path to turn to dust and he began running towards the sound using the fire wave to cut down s many in his path as he could.

Lucy agreed with the dragon suggestion to finish the fight, but after joining the fight that didn’t seem like it would be possible. After about twenty minutes of smashing skulls and breaking legs they didn’t seem to be making any progress. How could they though? Who knows how many people died here? If there was a war here at one time they could be fighting thousands of skeletons. They would eventually become tired and over whelmed unless whoever was bringing them got tired first and stopped. He noticed the others gathering together. Teamwork was a good idea, but he couldn’t help but feel it wasn’t going to be enough. “I’m with Sierra we should run…” He called out to whoever had the time to listen. He was dodging attack from the undead when he bumped into someone, well… more like something. “AH… “He staggered back away from the thing with no face, he was about to punch it when he realized it was fighting with them too. “Oh…uh sorry my good sir… nice suit...” it wasn’t the greatest introduction but they didn’t have time for introductions at the moment. It wasn’t long before he started to get tired, the thing about not having a weapon handy was when your enemy doesn’t have muscles or tendons, or in this case anything that could be used to cause pain it took a lot more effort to bring them down… he couldn’t just break a neck or a leg and be done with it, he had to almost literally smash his enemies to dust.

When the others arrived Re'nah finished off a small group of them and staggered back panting black veins ran up from her back and made their way up her neck and towards her heart. she turned to Hunter and with her claws cut off one of her dread locked and handed it to him. "Take this back to my mother...if you get out of here...and tell her i love her..." she said. "I'm staying here..it will give you all a chance to escape." When she didn't see Dante she looked around and saw a limp form leaning agaist a buiding farther off. Before they could argue and she knew they would she stepped away from them, and a wall of shadows raised up and blocked the skeletons from them, and at the same time made a path for the others to follow and escape the dead town. "Please, just go..." she half whispered and turned around just as more Skeletons attacked her and she fought them off. There was a loud matalic snap that ran out as Re'nah's staff broke from the force of one of the skeletons blades and Re'nah dropped the peices and used her claws to slice off their heads, it was apperent at that moment that she wasn't going to get out of this alive.

((Killing off Re'nah to bring in an old char i love to use with RPs with Jasper, and Alice can't make it to the RP any more so she asked me to kill off Dante. After your posts i'll make a time skip for when they make it across the border so i can bring in my new char and other things.))
