Welcome to Gaia! ::

Silver laughed at Ryudo's remark, not even hearing Damrius as he headed up the stairs. He wasn't entirely serious about everything he said to Ryudo; he just liked to push his buttons. Well... mostly, anyways. Entering his private room, he closed his door to take care of a few things.

First off, his casual clothes were a mess. Not only were they dirty, they were battle torn too. Opening his backpack he had left in the room, which he only takes on what he knows will be long trips, he began to search through the clothes he had.

The formal kimono wasn't really travel ready. Even though both the new Kimono and the one he was wearing were both similar, this new formal was much fancier and expensive. Not fit until he was brought before the council. The next was his Ryugin uniform (minus the breastplate, as he was wearing it), which coincidently he didn't even know why he brought along. The last, an indigo outfit, was something he had randomly grabbed. Thinking, he couldn't even remember the last time he's worn it. It was probably a good twelve years ago.

He'd have to remember to update his wardrobe when he got back.

Donning this new (or old) attire, he gave an approving nod in the mirror. The indigo was a pleasant change from his much overused crimson. Silver awoke the reluctant Angelous and headed downstairs to the others, ready to head out to the City of Elders.

Damrius rolled his eyes. He doubted he had much potential, at least not until he reached full ties to the Plain of Lightning. speaking of which...

I'm heading out. I have some... Things to do.

THings to acheive... I've gotta become stronger. Show them that I'm able to hold my own. I'm tired of it. What would Ryugi say if he knew I STILL hadn't acheived that level... urgh... gotta get it..

Damrius headed for the door, and as soon as he opened it, he dropped his sword off right next to it. He very rarely went anywhere without his sword. Must have been something important for him to do it...

But that left him with his battle guantlets. Good ol' weapons. He moved out of the Inn, and started towards the exit of town.

Madison blinked three times and then quickly followed after Dame only to not want another event like the last one to happen. As she walked a few steps out the door she stopped and turned to look at the door, but after a few secounds she coutinued to quietly follow Dame without saying anything.

And then it would stop, and Dame would feel a pressence near him. If he were to open his eyes and turn he would be face to face with a lightning beast. Something like a tiger, its body lacked solid form, and looked to be completely made of electrical energy. Its red eyes would look deeply into Dame's for a moment before it backed off and roared a strange etherial roar.

Seconds later, a rune would appear, and a small ball of lightning energy would begin to form over the middle of the rune, and pulse with energy. Clouds would circle overhead, and lightning would streak across them, accompanied by booming thunder. And then, with a bright flash of electical light, a being would appear, a human-like being.

His hair looked almost like solid electrical energy, if thet were even possible. Hie eyes were red, and glowed a bit. He wore a totally MASSIVE bright white cape of electrical energy that sat around his shoulders and covered his chin as well as it billowed out behind him. His armor was silver, and shone so brightly it was like a mirror, reflecting the light around him. His pants were white as well, and fit snuggly down into his silvery, mirror-smooth, armored boots.

In his hand was a sword unlike anything Dame would have ever seen. It was made up of a thin yellow energy band that formed the cutting edge, and in the middle where the metal should be, there were white runes and markings. In his other hand was a massive shield that looked almost exactly the same as the sword, the edge marked by the crackling electric band, but the whole shield itself seemed to be made out of a slowly crackling electric field. His hands were protected by metal, mirror-smooth silver, and fabric gloves, the fabric made of the same bright white material as his pants.

This "man" stepped foreward off of the rune, his body still crackling with an electric aura of sorts, large arcs of electricity flowing slowly around him. He then looked at Dame, and pet the tiger beast as he spoke.

I am Volt, Guardian of the Elemental Plane of Lightning. Who is it that hath called apon me to form a pact?

His voice seemed disembodied, not a solid tone, even though his mouth was clearly moving, and a slight reverberation accompanied it as if he was saying the same thing a few times....

Be ye he who hath called me forward to create a pact, Warrior Damrius?

His voice was strong, powerful, and not one of kindness or malicious intent, merely neutral as he spoke.

Whats with all the energy fluxes today? I better check it out...

Silver looked over at Ryudo, not bothering to interrupt the dragon's conversation. Thusly, he went go investigate the energy source.

"I'm heading out for a sec..."

Damrius nodded.

Yes. Let me know what I must do.

Nothing is going to stop me... it can't. I have to do this... To save Ryugi... He's like a... father to me... beleive it or not...

Damrius pulled his battle gloves out from behind his back, and nearly put them on.

Wait... Weapons make you weak... To truly prove myself and to have him judge me fairly... I hsould attempt to defeat him with my bare hands...


That is when Damrius tossed his gloves behind him, and brought his hands up. He saw scarred tissue formed where he had felt the burns. Lightning. Of course.

Works by me.
