Welcome to Gaia! ::

Izieixie turned to Kitsuna with a sharp movement. "The Holy Army can provide you with the best protection you could imagine. We are fully aware that you can defend yourself, but we wouldn't want to take chances. Also, your membership will be kept in the utmost secrecy, for your protection and mine. And," she continued, "If you take up my offer, which seems ridiculous that you would accept at this point, you would get all of the status of an official ranking member of the Holy Army. That means minimal basic training, for it seems you would have little use for it, and your input would be used in our most important decisions." Izieixie started to cry on the inside at this point, this is not how she hoped thing would turn out.

She now turned her attention to Ryuho. "We won't be losing if you join," replied Izieixie curtly and coldly. "And The Holy Army isn't in directy controlled by the Zodiac Society, Ryuho, I thought you knew that. Plus, I thought you wanted to see the downfall of the Order. Apparently not. But I know a lost cause when I see one."

She started to turn around and walk away, but quickly changed her mind, as she saw another opportunity arise. "But, if you not take me up on my offer, I shall take you up on yours. I will accompany you on your mission, if you allow it. You've seen what I can do, you know what I am, I can greatly help you. But that is your decision to make, Ryuho."

Do what you like, I'm not here to babysit nor is this some kind of fieldtrip. If it comes down to it, i'll join you're little rebellion, but only to my own accord and will, Understand? But you're welcome to join us if you wish, though reguardless of you're ranking in the army, you follow my lead and rules got it?" said Ryuho as he made himself clear.

Kitsuna sighed, "well now that that's settle, can we move on now."

"You'll find this cove to be... dreary. It isn't exactly the most beautiful place in the world, but it has become a fitting home." Shadowstep lead them deeper into the depths of the underground caverns. "You see... I received a large sum of money after an escort mission with a certain child. It was enough for me to create a place I could call... home. I can offer you technology and equipment even the Order doesn't have, all I ask is Grave's assistance in my... constant line of work."
Leading Dr. Rav and Grave down, they came upon a chamber fit with several items that could be used for several situations. In the center of the chamber was a chair, fit with tubes and wires, chains and straps.
"Here, Grave will sit and the tubes will replenish what chemicals he is running low on. More efficient and requires less ectoplasm." With a bow, Shadowstep vanished back to his work.

Kitsuna looked around with curiosity. "How do you know of all these ancient places Ryuho?"

Shadow looked at hiom slightly out the conner of her eye, " Yes, its all just a memory now" she sighed slightly as she continued on with the reast of them.

"Probably because this is the lost city of the Seitomi Race. You wouldn't remember it, even if you were a god. This place is sacred and old. Only I, Jiro and time know of this place. Come, the Hall of The Fallen is close." said Ryuho as they continued downward more as the tempature began to drop more and the smell of rushing water was strong and roaring their ears.
