Welcome to Gaia! ::

Dante blinked, barely hearing her last words before leaving into the crowd of gladiators. He wondered what that was all about but chances are his sharp words caused it. He thought about to keep following her but seeing how tense these last few moments have been he decided it wasn’t the best idea. Dante had other things to worry about other than their being a woman in the place; he had to get ready for the match today for The Coliseum which was a one for all type of deal for today. The dictator like making different events for each day, some days they were on teams and others it was everyone for themselves. Either way someone was dying at the end of the day. Walking a different direction he decided to get ready early and clear his head, it wasn’t good if he was over thinking things or distracted, he had no plans on dying for today or any day for that matter. As Dante walked he heard the screams of pain coming from the man who was now getting whipped for false actuations, gritting his teeth at each agonizing cried. Just another reason why Dante hated this place.

Dante blocked out the screams from the man as best as he could, he didn’t have any time to listen to that, he needed to focus so he could live for another day at least. Going over to a chest he took a key from his jean pocket before kneeling down to unlock it. The contents of the chest were his armor or anything else he owned, which wasn’t much. Taking off his green jacket he started to put on his armor, it was a bit big on him but that was for a very good reason since when he shifted he was far bigger than the size he was now. Dante looked at the helmet and just about rolled his eyes before putting it back in the chest, he never needed it anyway and besides to him he was hard headed enough. He laughed at that thought but was surprised that he could laugh about a life or death situation like this. A helmet could project him from a deadly blow or a weapon but he decided to take a risk and not wear it. Shrugging off those thoughts Dante closed his chest before locking it up again, looking over to see Dajana totally lost as she tried opening doors…maybe even looking for something? Sighing he wondered if he would regret this later but walked back towards her and caught her just in time before she open another door.”Looking for something?” He asked in his very loose armor. Dante was never this talkative to people, especially new ones but for some reason he kept talking to her, he wondered why.

Dante had a lost look on his face when Dajana saluted at him as if he was a captain of the guards or something around that job description; looking down at him-self it became clear she was doing it because he had armor on. He responded by shaking his head and rolling his eyes, not really finding it all that amusing. When he heard she was looking for clothing that could replace what everybody was looking through Dante couldn’t help but stare just as before when they met… but soon stopped him-self before he got any glares or even being slapped. Clearing his throat he answered her question.”I can get you some; mind though that it’s just a basic shirt and pants most of the guys wear.” He said, nodding his head at her to follow as went down the hall in his oversized armor. Stopping he went into a room and open a few crates that had clean simple shirts and pants for anybody to grab just in case they lost them.”Here we go, I don’t know what size you are so go ahead and pick what you need.” He said before remembering something.”Also since were fighting today I suggest getting armor from here too, you’re going to need it.”

“Yeah, you picked a bad time to show up here since you don’t really have a choice in fighting today, none of us do.” Dante said as he pulled up one of his gauntlet to make sure it didn’t fall off. Looking at Dajana, who looked pale in the face at this point Dante felt a bit sorry for her. Even if she could hold off her own in here he wondered how she would do out on the battle field, he still believed she wouldn’t make it but he wouldn’t remind her of that. Dante was a bit surprise she was so optimistic though about the whole ordeal, most men would just sulk or panic until their turn came to fight in the arena. Coming out of his thoughts he notice Dajana waving a hand at him, which made him have a confused look upon his face until it clicked in his mind that she wanted to change.”Oh!...um yeah , sorry.” He turned around and walked out of the room to give her some privacy, he wasn’t in the mood much to play a peeping tom.

Dante waited patiently as Dajana got changed into new clothes to replace the see through one’s she oh so hated. Looking around he saw others starting to get ready for today’s match and wonder who was fighting who, what kind of stupid type of match he had to go through just to survived today…the list of questions he was asking himself could go on for a while. Dante was in the middle of asking himself yet another question when he heard a whistle inside the room and looked back to see Dajana was fully dressed and cover. When she asked how she look and started to playfully pose he just shrugged.”Like someone who got stuck with a bunch of male gladiators…oh wait.” He smirked but soon got a serious look on his face.”Did you find the armor? Like I said it’s not smart to go out there unprotected, unless you’re trying to die of course.” He said, now wondering if she really was trying to survive in a place like this.

Dante playfully holed his hands up in defense at Dajana’s moody tone.”Hey no need to get all grumpy about it.” He said somewhat more calmly than he should. Being threaten by a woman who claw up a man’s face and hit him in the jewels should of made him more afraid, than again he wasn’t afraid of her more like interested. When she made the boob comment he couldn’t help but laugh.”For someone who doesn’t like showing her goods you would allow me to take one last look? I’m touched.” Dante teased but soon noticed she was having issues with the armor. He had to admit the first few times he was having issues with it himself, it just took practice but then again nobody knew if they were ever going to get that chance. Hearing Dajana cuss made him sigh, seeing she was frustrated with the armor and probably everything that’s happen so far. Feeling a bit sorry Dante went over and tapped her shoulder.”Do you need help?” He asked, seeing she was to the brink of tears. He wouldn’t make any more smart-a** comments for now and he really didn’t want to be the reason why a woman cried, the at least he could do now is help her.

Dante started to help by strapping up the armor, making sure it was snug but not so tight that it uncomfortable for her. Pushing up one of his oversized gauntlets again due to it sliding he looked at Dajana when she asked her question to him.”Well it just depends what that idiot wants. ” He said, referring to the dictator as he started to tie the last strap on her armor.Some days you’ll be on a team and some day’s it’s a free for all, with me since I’m a Lycan some days I’ll be outnumber against a team due to my size. But don’t worried about how the fight it going to work out just worried about yourself and keep your guard up alright?” He advised before finishing up tying the armor.”There, you should be ready to go now.”
