Not far in the distance of the camp, a sound of horse trots came up the road. Valencia looked up from her hood to see a carriage with a horse on the side of the road. She noticed it had a broken wheel and a cargo of fireworks. Judging by the tracks it wasnt there long but no driver in sight. Valencia tugged the reigns of her white horse and it came to a stop with a snort. She sighed and pulled the paper Artis gave her from her pocket. As she looked it over she tapped Layla over her shoulder as she rested against Vae's back. "Hey, were getting close. I need to stretch, I haven't rode a horse for this long in awhile..." Valencia made sure Layla didn't fall off as she climbed off the sattle. After she stretched then walked over to the carriage to see the damage and Valencia smirked. "Oh that's an easy fix. I just need a solid piece of lumber and..." Valencia looked to one of the trees and saw a decent branch. Using her divine ability she jumped up to it and grabbed the branch then broke it off with her weight. Valencia landed back down by the cart and pulled some tools and string from her larger satchel. She got to work smoothing the wood and began to fix the wheel. "Just gotta wedge this in here... I need a rock." Valencia grabbed a good hand sized rock then began to hammer the wedge then the wheel back into place. Her strikes could be heard down the road. Well this will be a blessing for that traveler. If he comes back..." Valencia checked her work on the wheel and was certain it will hold for many miles.

 Theme:Here...Seeing as these are blurred I guess I wont be answering that...
●...If only I could figure out what happened... ● Layla's head ached and her anger which was one of the 7 side affects began to troll on her mind as she tried to keep her temper but she would grunt every now and then to show her frustration along with the pain in her body from being over intoxicated and having to ride horseback she leaned against Vae most of the ride until she told her she needed to stop and stretched; Layla sat in the horses saddle her eyes scanning the misty woods as her eyes blinked slowly, as her head lolled back somewhat she felt rather paralyzed by the affects of the alcohol; She thought she heard movement was that Vae or someone else? She couldn't tell anymore as her head fell limp and hung low before her taking in a deep breathe she tried to swing herself from the horse but only manage to start falling off of it before she tried to grab the saddle to steady herself only to feel her hands slipping as she desperately gave one last effort to haul herself back on the horse in the end she ending up spooking the horse as it whined reared back causing her to fall tumbling into the mud onto her back as she barely managed to roll out of the way as it began to run off, she then proceeded to turn onto her stomach coughing and spitting out the mud and then heave up whatever food and drink she had earlier,"F*cking horse.. F*ck..", she spit out the last of the bitter taste out of her mouth as she got onto her knees to sit down on her calves;

●..May my Heart be my Guiding Key.. ● Vin sat there, quiet as he thought about what all that had happened. Placing the finished cigarette in a small metal cylinder to throw away later, Vin all of a sudden felt familiar presences close by as he turned his head toward the door that Soris had went through,"Hmm?"
During this time, two soldiers were walking down the pathway that the wizard had told that his cart was not too far away. Walking through, the first soldier, who was a younger male who held his sword in his sheath within his left hand, his right hand on the handle to make sure that he was going to be protected. All of a sudden, the two soldiers heard the sounds of breaking and smashing two objects over and over again. The older soldier looked toward the two ladies, one working on the cart and the other not fully in his sights, though the smell of her throwing up could be very noticeable as the smell of the Seven Wonders whiskey was floating in the air,"I see you two have met Clingus MiDingus then.."
The smaller, younger soldier stood there, his legs wiggling under him as he grew a little worried but the older soldier sighed softly as he turned to his teammate. Shaking his head, he turned back to the lady with white hair before speaking up with his arms crossed,"I have a feeling you two aren't from here either.."
"Umm sir?", the young soldier spoke up as he finally saw the other female's face. Though the smell wasn't pleasant, the older soldier walked over to investigate to see who it was.
"Ah yes, the Bulletproof Angel graces us with her presence", the older soldier spoke once more in a cocky attitude, his arms still crossed as he sighed softly. He knew exactly who she was as he turned toward the thirteen year old soldier before speaking up softly,"Let the others know that she has made it home."
The young soldier nodded softly before running off toward the main camp just as the older soldier looked over to the woman with white hair with a soft smirk before looking over at that cart,"It was nice of you to help with everything..though fair warning, Clingus has faced some very weird things in the past...he told stories about the time where he fought a Orc army alongside a half orc, a gnome named Pillowshoes, and a half elf sorceress...though strangely enough though, orcs aren't usually around here. Trolls, yes, but not orcs."
Back at the home base, Vin picked himself back up from the bench as he walked over toward the second entrance, his cigarette hanging from his lips as he wondered exactly what was going on. There were ladders that went up to the watch towers which the trees made for good camouflage which really helped as he climbed all the way up to get the best view. Standing there, up where the tree leafs covered them, he noticed a young man yelling out to the fort,"THE BULLETPROOF ANGEL IS HERE! OPEN THE GATES AND GET THE BATH HOUSE READY FOR A CLEANUP!!"

 𝒮𝑜𝓇𝒾𝓈 𝒜𝓂𝒷𝓇𝑜𝓈𝒾𝑜𝓊𝓈 "A wizard is never late, nor is he early ..." the horse that was attacked to the cart looked at Valencia the whole time she fixed the wheel and even looked to the soldiers arriving. and walked with them as they escorted the two women to the fort "honestly, i believe Gandalf would give him a run for his money" the horse actually spoke as he passed the semi drunk guards from before and made his way to Soris "Shadowfax! how did you get here?" he asked as the horse shook his head "that nice woman fixed the cart ... though her friend-" he said before turning his head to look towards the Bulletproof Angel herself making Soris wince slightly. he could smell the alcohol from where he stood. Simon, who was not too shocked at the talking horse, looked to the woman as well and spotted Valencia giving her a nod and looked to Soris "what do you think? possible to help her?" he asked as Soris looked at him like he belched loudly "she is drunk, Master Jedi and she will continue to be drunk until she sobers up ... not even the most powerful wizard can remove a drunken stupor" he said trying very very hard not to roll his eyes and instead just sighed before looking at the list and frowning slightly "if i can get the ingredients then yes i should be able to brew a potion in no time at all .... i just need-" he said before climbing up to the wagon and pulled out a carpet bag and opened it before putting his whole arm in it and felt around. after a few moments of fishing he finally pulled out a large stand and cauldron that couldn't have possibly fit in there normally, luckily the bag was enchanted. "right ..." he said before looking to one of the guards and extinguished his pipe, hanging it in a slot on his staff "you wouldn't happen to know an apothecary anywhere around here would you?" "... He arrives precisely when he means to!"

Valencia poked her head up from the cart when she heard Layla fall. She got up and went to Layla's side and held her shoulders as she coughed. "Damn I'm never letting you touch that stuff again. It was crap anyways..." Valencia said as the alcohol wore off on her a lot faster due to her tolerance. She looked to see the soldiers approach and was happy to see them. Valencia chuckled when the soldiers claimed they didn't look to be natives of the time. "Yeah? In fact, we were looking for you guys. Artis sent us here. Has he arrived?" Valencia knew they would recognize Layla. Even with her current blonde hair. They would help her as she sobers up. When Valencia turned around to the cart she saw it had moved further down the road. She looked ahead and saw Simon and Mitsuki along with someone unfamiliar. Valencia waved hello to them and called to the unknown traveler. "You're welcome!" Before she decided to follow the soldiers with Layla, Valencia noticed her friend, Shukurai, had been dead silent since they left Novigrad. Valencia almost forgot he was there. "Shuk? Are you alright? You haven't said a word on the road." She turned away from Simon and Mitsuki to see Shukurai, for all to see, standing in the middle of the road. He was looking straight up into the sky and the wind blew his hair back. "Do you feel that?..." Shukurai spoke ominously. "Can you hear that?..." Valencia grew nervous and approached him. Shukurai looked to her and Valencia saw sadness and grief in his eyes. Shukurai looked back up and placed a hand on Valencia's left shoulder. She suddenly felt a rumble in the cosmos that those with divine senses can feel. Valencia then heard an unfamiliar screech as if something was dying in pain. This sound made her head ache and her heart heavy with grief. "What is happening?" A tear fell from Shukurai's eye and he responded. "A star is being brutally murdered... It's screaming mercy and all that the others can do is helplessly watch..." Valencia dropped to her knees and placed her palms on the ground. The planet can feel it too and it was all around her. "It's Ruin... Isn't it? It's the only thing capable of murdering a star." Shukurai shook his head slowly. "It's not just him..."

●...If only I could figure out what happened... ● Layla was helped up and then she gazed up at the person who was calling her a bullet proof angel,"Oh... wah?", she said her head whoozing from getting sick she stumbled along with Vae until they reached the camp seeing a couple of familiar faces,"Commander", she said seeing Vin she gave him a sloppy salute,"I'll take that laughing gas penalty now..", she said with a "hic" she then rubbed her temples feeling miserable,"D*mn Drawfs.. what was in that stuff?", she said,"I took one shot..", she barely whispered, turning to find a seat nearby a log jutted out as she sat down on it trying to clear her head she was already starting to feel the affects of a hangover just her luck;

●..May my Heart be my Guiding Key.. ● "What in the..a talking horse? What's next, is the horse gonna sing the Empty Feedbag Blues?", Vin spoke to himself as he stood in the watch tower, hearing what the horse was saying. The soldier next to him just looked at him confused in which Vin turned toward the soldier with a smile,"It's a joke..don't worry about it, way before any of our times, that's for sure."
Sliding down the ladder when he saw Valencia with a slumped over Layla, Vin opened the door for the soldiers to come through before closing the door behind Layla and Valencia once the two walked through the large doors. Hearing Layla calling him commander, Vin smirked softly toward her as the three walked toward the buildings,"Yeah, sounds like you had a fun time and you got a lot of that fun out of you now. We'll get you feeling all better soon, Angel"
Looking toward one of the female soldiers, Vin spoke up softly toward her,"Heard you all have a bath house, right?"
"Yes sir", the soldier spoke, her hair was long and blond that was pulled up into a bun, two chop sticks stabbed through the bun to show a little bit of fashion along with culture from her home realm. Looking toward Layla and Val, the soldier lead the two toward the bath house where there was a small creek going through the back of the house,"We have ice tea inside that'll help out with the aliments of the drink. Believe it or not, Clingus does this a lot. You don't want to know all the ingredients..Sargent Artis hasn't arrived yet but we'll have more information soon enough. We have a crew out in the city to keep tabs."
Meanwhile, Vin sighed softly as he watched Layla and Val being lead toward the bath house, looking down as he wondered where the Witcher in question was. Turning toward Simon and Mitsuki, who were still talking to Soris, the demigod only sighed softly before pulling off the headband around his head. With that, the motherly soldier returned with her son holding a tray of drinks for the group. The scent of tea and fresh sugar filled the air as Vin gently grabbed one of the plastic cups. The motherly figure looked up toward the demigod holding onto the headband as she spoke up softly to him,"You remind me of Big Boss when you wear that..I guess the Ideology never dies."
"Ideology never dies..you can say that", Vin replied as he wrapped the headband back around his head, pulling his wild hair away from his face. He thought about the days back on motherbase where he listened to Big Boss's final words to the troops before heading toward Outer Haven. We were soldiers without borders who would not be buried in the heartless sea. Huey Emmerich yelling out how Big Boss was nothing but a murderer to his own people. Those words haunt him to this day for this created a shadow within his own past as but with that, Big Boss did something no one expected. Turning their ashes into diamonds to take them into battle alongside their brothers in arms. Turning back toward the village where the people were developing their food supplies and their weapons, Vin smirked softly before speaking,"Ideologies change..MSF, Diamond Dogs...We were a military without borders..this is still true but now..now War has Changed..we must adapt to survive..once Artis comes back, we'll have t-"
"SIR!", a voice interrupted him as he turned to see a soldier in torn civilization clothes, his face covered in soot as he quickly solute to the ex-commander before speaking up,"We have a situation.."

  ● "the Jedi and Sith have it wrong, you know" ●
"There is no good or evil with the Force"
●.."only choices".. ●.::Jedi Master Keyblade Armor::.Simon was smiling before he felt a strange disturbance in the Force and stumbled slightly but Soris caught him. Simon had no idea what it was, it was as if a powerful shift in the cosmos was occurring but it felt like an end "w-what .... what's going ..." he said before his eyes glowed golden for a slip second then went back to normal. the tremble in the Force was still there but it wasn't as powerful, it was as if the Force itself was holding back the blunt of the disturbance at bay for Simon "-alright?" Simon heard Soris ask making the Jedi shake off the feeling for now "y-yeah ... i'm alright, Gandalf" he said as the horse, Shadowfax shook his mane "even i know something happened to you, you seem pale" the horse said as Simon chuckled and shook his head. he hated lying but he didn't want his friends to worry about him "it's nothing ... just ..." he said before he saw the iced tea being offered and accepted then held it up for the others "bit thirsty" he said before taking a sip
Soris frowned deeply at Simon knowing a lie easily but decided not to call him out on it "very well ... Shadowfax you best go get some rest" he said but then heard the soldier speak up then looked at Simon with a shrug that said 'might as well help out' then the both walked up to listen "whatever the issue is, i'm sure you can use our help" he said in a calm manner .::Other Armors::.

Valencia was following the soldiers to the bath house after Shukurai told her the disturbing event that is occurring in the Realms. Her stomach was in knots and her mind was now filled with anxiety. Then something happened and she paused. The rumble in the cosmos suddenly stopped and all feeling of reality became silent and still. Valencia looked around noticed the birds had stopped chirping all at once. The forest had gone eerily quiet. "Shuk?" Shukurai was behind her when Valencia turned around. His arms crossed and hidden in the sleeves. His head was looking down and his eyes closed. "The star is gone... The Realms will silently mourn... Ruin is here." Valencia was scared. Her and Shukurai were lucky to have escaped Ruin the first time. Shukurai may have lost his physical form to him but his soul was saved by Valencia. As long as he exists his Universe won't collapse to Ruin but now it hunts for them. "How?... How did he get here? I destroyed my infection with everything I had in reserve." Shukurai sighed. "That doesn't matter anymore. I need to commune with my siblings and see what has become of home..." Shukurai looked worried and before Valencia could say anything he left instantly. Astral travelling between Universes are easier for souls but to get a physical person like Valencia over, it would require something more complex. Valencia sighed knowing Shukurai will be gone a few days and the birds songs slowly started to come back to the trees. Valencia clenched her fists and grit her back teeth a bit before yelling, "F*CK!" in frustration.

●...If only I could figure out what happened... ● Layla's head popped up as soon as she heard something about a recovery drink,"Bath house? something to kill my hang over? I'm down", she told him,"Also when can I get out of this disguise? now that we found Artsis will we be here for much longer?", she then watched as she was escored away,"Guess we talk later commander", she saluted to him before following suit as she turned to see Vae talking with Shuk about something as they walked,"Oh boy..", the big F*ck that followed assured her they got into an argument or something; Finding herself entering the bathhouse changing room she went to strip down into a swimsuit stepping into the bathhouse itself someone came over and handed her that Iced tea she sipped on it soaking in the hot steamy water,"ah!", she exhaled feeling much better and relaxed,"They should have had one of these at the base", she commented quietly the dark image of what remained of it went through her head as she frowned and closed her eyes,'Forget about the past layla... you have to keep looking for the future...';

●..May my Heart be my Guiding Key.. ● Vin, with a seriously look on his face, walked over toward Mitsuki, who had a strange animal near her which he remembered it being Carbuncle, Soris who was talking toward his horse which was quite strange but then again, they knew a Samurai Warrior Cat. And then finally Simon who seemed to be a little bit distracted which was quite interesting. Vin walked up to the three before crossing his arms, looking up to them as he spoke up silently,"We umm..have a situation. Follow me to the bath house, Layla will need to hear this as well."
Walking toward the bath house, Vin turned toward Valencia who was talking to Shukurai, the demigod smiled softly as he motioned his head to follow him to the bath house. He looked a little serious as he explained to the whole group outside of the bath house which Layla could hear,"We umm..I just got word that Artis was captured over at the place you two were. A place called Novigrad? Took him to a island prison where they wait to burn him but unfortunately, we have no information where the island is. That being said, we do have one lead."
A soldier walked up to the group and pulled out a few letters with the Novigrad insignia. Novigrad is a Independent State which meant no one outside the city could tell them what to do though there are deals going on inside the walls of the so called "Free City". The soldier speaks up nervously,"T-t-There is a Ball going on tonight where the new General of Novigrad's army, nicknamed the Eternal Flame Butcher, will be located spending time with the people. It's a short ride up there but we had to fabricate these invitations for all of you plus Layla."
"We go in, in disguise, and find out the location of the stronghold, get out before anyone notices..", Vin finished the plan as his back leaned against the wall, looking over toward Mitsuki and Valencia with a soft smirk on his face,"We just have to put on some disguises the soldiers are working on first which..that means you two and Layla are going to be wearing some dresses..meanwhile, Simon and I will be wearing their...lets say less then flattering fancy outfits.."

● "the Jedi and Sith have it wrong, you know" ●

●.."only choices".. ●.::Jedi Master Keyblade Armor::.as the two followed into the bath house, Simon and Soris listened to his plan and the Jedi couldn't help but shrug "less than flattering ... clearly you've never been to a diplomatic feast at Alderaan" he said with a chuckle but then looked over at Soris who looked at Valencia with sadness. he wasn't sure why but he felt as though sympathy was needed. after a few seconds he cleared his throat looking to Vin "well just in case there should be a back up plan ... my father tends to believe the best laid plans always go awry ... and i tend to agree" he said then turned back to Valencia and bowed his head in respect "though before i forget i would like to thank you for your help ... Shadowfax told me it was you who helped fix my cart. i'm Soris Ambrosious" he said with another bow of his head as Simon shook his head "leave it to Gandalf to prioritize manners before a plan ... but he is right though, awry or not this mission will obviously require diplomacy and a bit of charm .... so Vin it might be a good idea for you not to speak at all at this ball" he said slightly joking making Soris hide a smirk .::Other Armors::.
