Nekoyasha_Skiiy ((Er, I don't mind...*Nudges Minikaru* Psst, your turn.)) ((Lol. Sorry. I usually can't get online 'till later, but I'm here!)) As much as she hated to leave her friends side, Mairyela knew Skiiy was right. They had to give chase; she wouldn't allow this act to go unpunished! Laying Wyralein on the soft grass, she lent and kissed her brow. "Don't worry. I'll find the one who did this to you." she whispered. "May the Light illumine your soul in the hereafter." Following Skiiy, they ran into town, following the blood trail. Nothing seemed out of place, which is what bothered her. Another thing nagged at her mind as well; as they followed the trail, the scent of blood and sweat was becoming fainter. "A trap...nobody's this careless about leaving a trail..." Skiiy mumbled, more to himself. As soon as the words were out of his mouth, the same gut-wrentching scent of decay hit her. Skiiy must have sensed something too, for he stopped dead. Suddenly she felt something whizz past her ear. Embracing the Power, she whipped around. A silver dart lay embedded in the inn across the street, the shaft poking out of the oak door. The rush of saidar filled her marrow. It enhanced her senses tenfold, which allowed her to pinpoint the arrows origin. Down the street, about ten or so buildings down, a man stood on the roof of a merchants house, grinning like mad. He had short brown hair and blue eyes; her sight could pick up as much. His dark blue silk shirt shone in the glow of the setting sun. He carried a belt knife and in his hands was a dart blower. Focusing saidar in his hand, she wove a fireball the size of the man's head; she meant to blow his smirking face off his shoulders! Running forward a few paces, she hurtled the ball of fire at the man, using flows of air to increase its speed. He didn't even move as it hurtled at him; he didn't stop smirking. The fireball hit him dead on, erupting in an explosion of flames, wood and stone. The two watched as the smoke began to clear, and got a shock when it finally did. The man was still there, unfazed and unscathed. What surprised her the most was the fact that, even though the roof had been blown away, he still stood where he had been; now on thin air. "It isn't very nice to destroy what's not yours." he yelled at them, his smile getting wider.

Skiiy can feel the arrow fly at him through the air through his attunement with the wind, and he goes into a roll as it flies through the air where he'd been. Returning to his feet, gunblade already pointing at the man, he instinctively pulls the trigger, only to remember that it did not work here. He'd need to try another strategy to defeat the man. He also notices that the fireball doesn't seem to phase him one bit, though it'd knocked everything else away. He might be protected against Saidar...good thing I've got a plan for that. Turning to Yurin, he mouths the silent words "Another fireball."
Running at the man, Skiiy clears holes of air near the man's head, letting them reclose immediately and quickly, causing small thunderclaps right in his ears to distract him. He appeared at least a bit confused, which gave Skiiy the time he needed. Clearing the space quickly, pushing himself along faster with air, he soon reaches the building, using steps of solid air to reach the roof. He swings his blade at the man, a careless swing which he dodges by jumping backwards, onto the next roof over.
However, it was never Skiiy's intention to hit his target. Borrowing from the air around him, he builds up the supply of oxygen in the space right in front of the man. If Mog had launched his fireball at the man correctly, it should be extra powerful due to the increase of oxygen. Also, the fact that it's Saidin might also help hurt the man.
((Chemical Engineering, baby!))

((its all good thanks))((i really do hate cleaning)) Alina looked at herself in the mirror. it was the same old mirror that had always been there. any questions? she ahd millions! some she was to afriad to ask. she looked down at the floor tiles thinking about which questions to ask. "so, i wont lose Dupre? oh....okay thats good...and kitchen duty, i always hated that, and i know that Laras will work me hard, so its worth it, im glad that you were not as harsh as i feared, and thank you for notpunishing me for what Mesaana tried to do. I really hope she has truly left the Tower." she thought she had gone to far with that, she she tried to cover up, "I accept that i will work even after i get raised, well, If i get raised, i give my word that i wont leave untill it is done IF i am raised. i thank you very very much for your kindness with my punishment." she glanced at the closet where the strap and slipper were kpet. she had thovght she would be gtting the strap for years for this. she put her hand in her pocekt and played with the Tar' Angrel that was there, protecting her from the Dark One and Mesaana. "umm, at what meals should i do my kitchen duty Vancelle Sedai?" she had really just been babling before, her real questions were all regarding Mesaana and what efforts the Amyrilin was making to finding her. even if she left, seh could come back as another sister. or even an accepted or Novice. or even a servent! she could always do mask of mirrors, and hide her strangth. i really wish i could learn that, im so strong with spirit, why cant i learn that one? she looked up from playing with her skirts and looked at Vancelle stright in the eye. she was no seanchan Da'coval not to look at a higher in the eye, she was not testing Vancelle that would be wronge, she was just meraly looking.

Holding saidin and being a Gaidin, especially double-bonded, heightens one's senses to a preternatural degree. The whistle of the projectile slicing the air was easily heard by the Warder. He moved at blinding speed his swords cleared their scabbards and sliced through where the body of the arrow was.. Or should have been. It was too short for an arrow and he completely missed. Nonplussed, as he saw Skiiy dodge out of the way, Mog's sharp eyes immediately caught the laughing fool, red lines shot through where he was as quickly as thought, having begun his weave after the Aes Sedai, the lines of red thread slid through in the midst of the explosion. The man still standing on thin air irritated him no end.
Hearing Skiiy's mouthed words more than seeing them, the Asha'Man sent his own version of a fireball at the laughing idiot, he didn't see what his would do where the Sister's had failed, but he immediately complied with his comrade's request. In battle one didn't hesitate to question, those who hesitated died. True to form, Yurin did not stand in one place as he formed and released his flames, he was in motion even as his blades missed the dart.
As he passed the Aes Sedai, he hoarsely whispered, for her ears only, "I'll be behind him, please don't hit me."
The flames he created was no simple ball, it was a ring of fire that appeared around the target and collapsed on him with incredible speed and force, combined with the excess of oxygen, the resulting explosion shook the street and left a ringing in the ears of anyone within two blocks. Before the ring had reached his target, a hole tore in the air in front of him, seeming to rotate into existence. Beyond it, a Stygian darkness so deep it seemed to suck all the light nearby inside, dimming the surrounding area. A Gateway required one to either know where one was going, for a male, or where one was leaving from, for a female. Skimming held no such restrictions, he didn't even know any females who knew how to Skim, it had been a lost Talent before the Lord Dragon had relearned it and taught his Asha'Man. Alighting upon a flat, golden platform in the shape and likeness of the dragon on his lapel, Mog's exit opened almost instantly, he was only moving several dozen spans, he could travel miles in moments, short distances were a hop, skip, and a- Jump!
Leaping through the opening as it appeared before him, Mog reached his target's back the same instant that Skiiy clashed with him from the front. Let's see how tough you really are, fool. Mog thought to himself.

Faye slowly walked outside. Maybe some sun would do her good. She walked carefully, but no one could tell she was really in pain because she hid it well behind her mask. She would NOT let this affect her, she REFUSED to let them win. She went out into the gardens and leaned against a post lazily for any who saw her, but really she was using it for support.

Bookwizard Emaleen nodded as she listened to Mirren's explanation of what they were to do. Then she remembered something. "Mirren, I have never been to an ocean before, I have seen sand-like soil near rivers but not sand. I know what it is though." Emaleen paused. "Maybe after I finish my training I could visit the beach, have you ever been to the beach?" Emaleen wasn't sure of exactly what she would make, this being because she wasn't sure how it would stick together, maybe the white tower? "I would like to see the ocean one day to. But we are confined to the White Tower grounds, you even more than me, so we cannot even visit the rivers beach." *A novice quickly walked past them* "Jumi? I thought you had class with me this morning." *Jumi curtsied and showed a note saying she had to help one of the Katale Sedai by copying notes.* "Very well. Oh and make sure you write large, her eyes are not very good and she doesn't like small writing." *She turned back to Emaleen* "That means it will be just the two of us, much better since she's further in her classes." *Mirren started to walk towards halway that would lead the two outside*

Mercuryangel Azalea Verde : Azalea rolled her eyes as she took a sip of the tea. If anybody deserved this potential power, it was Azalea, and no other. She decided to change the subject. "No use discussing rumors," she began the transition as she pierced steamed carrot, "What was the thing between you an Alina about?" She popped the mushy carrot into her mouth as she waited for a reply to her inquiry. :
Well...it's only asking for trouble to lock someone away without offering some comfort or source of guidance. The Mother would likely be too busy, so I offered. She wanted to talk, and I went. It took a bit longer than I expected."
Mercury continued to devour her bread, waiting to see if Azalea wanted to know more. Like as not her friend had already caught on that there was more to the story. : Azalea yawned and leaned back in her chair as she stretched, "Go on," she said in a bored but dominant tone. She finished her stretching and resumed eating. She ate swift but in a precise manner as if she was taking each bite for a reason. After all, if there wasn't a reason for it, why would someone like Azalea do it? :
