Welcome to Gaia! ::

Tempest? Well, Jack would have to brush himself off as that wind has covered him in dirt and grass. He was there as well, apparently. Darkness would flow upwards from the ground about him in thin, rope-like pillars, swirling counter-clockwise. His white-gloved hand would open, and that cane of his would appear. That tip now lands upon the grass, and he rests upon it with the flat of his palm. He did not bother speaking for the time being, that darkness now arching, flowing downwards into the back of his hand, and then into the orb of his cane.

"He's in demon form now. I don't know who he's fighting but it's worrying me right after a really bad feeling came from outside the castle ust earlier. It's gone completley now though, but Zypher...." Tempest said feeling worried.

The crossed blades of the assasin were met by Zypher's own weapons. The metal clanged as sparks lit the night. Zypher's wings flapped down knocking the man's arms down as well. Now that there was an opening Zypher spun around and threw the dagger in his right hand at the man. The dagger was aiming for a vital spot in the man's chest.

Matachi ran with them "What exactly does this demon form look like?" he said looking at her as his sidiion activated in his eyes the wind kicking up his hair around his eyes coming to a stop as he stopped, seeing the thing he slowly drew his sword "katherine...don't even do it." He said seeing her pull the knife out

Katherine seemed to ignore Matachi's words for now she threw the dagger but not at the man it would land right at his feet in the ground just as it had Zypher's. Her voice held a note of command to it when she spoke next. "What is the meaning of all of this?!" She spoke her purple eyes directed to the form slideing across the ground.

Matachi moved infront of Katherine pretty pissed at her now "Stop putting your life on the line when you don't need to, its really annoying especially when the boys need you." He said as he wasn't moving from in front of her he was sick of her just ignoring what he said when he listened to her everyword

Three other men made their way into the castle. "We don't have much time. Shadow can only divert them for so long." One of them said, to the others, as they wandered the halls effortlessly. This one looked around at the world around him nervously, as if it was going to attack at any second. the second one, who was just behind the first. "Keep moving, freak. The Queen's room, King's room, and then the children. That is the order." He told them in a voice as cold as iron. His long, shoulderlength hair was sopping wet and dripped across his damp clothes. The last simply followed the others. He was the smallest of the group, with a pair of glasses over his eyes.

The man smiled at all the attempts on his life. "You fools. You don't seem to understand what I'm here to do." He spoke, watching them all. The black string around his ankle was nothing, and so was the dagger almost fallen into his feet. Even the gust of wind was nothing. "I am Shadow." He yelled into the air. The man would simple dissapear, body and all, dissolving into the darkness around him. A laugh would be the warning for his next appearence. To the left, the sound preceded his appearance. The shadows rolled away from him. He stood simply, watching.

Katherine looked towards Matachi then being foreced to. "By the gods Matachi can we argue about this later!" She spoke as she moved back slightly her purple gaze looking back to the shadow man as he spoke. Her purpel eyes looked back to Zypher. She wished someone would tell her what was going on.

Allen stepped out from around the corner hearing the words of the men chattering.
"Ah, It seems the warning were true! Zypher told me to keep watch around the castle and not leave for anything. I think he was suspecting an attack." Allen said going into a fighting stance. His hands were raised and his feet were spread shoulder width apart almost like a boxing stance.
"I will protect the kingdom with all I've got." Allen said.

"There are a few good men still in the castle I put alot of trust in these men. You may be a shadow. But you are one....." Zypher said. Birds chirped again and Zypher moved to where the man was raising from the shadows. Both daggers coming towards the man. As well as a sharp wind coming from everywhich way around the man as he left the shadows.

"Zypher is using the three pronged way of detecing an opponent here. First his eyes, then the distortion in the wind..... Finally when those two won't work the birds tell of where the man is." Tempest said watching the battle.
"Wait... The castle is in trouble?!"
