Snide felt the wind on his face as he ran at top speed to his destitnation. "Watch the Rebels and report back to my captain. Sounds easy enough, but i should still be careful." he thought to himself. He was closing in on the rebel camp and decided to slow down for a moment to catch his breath.
He then jumped in the branches above to see if he could get a better view.

Sheena was startled when the red haired man took notice of her. She turned her head to the side ashamed, she hadn't meant to attack those men that came to her. She clutched the pearl that hung from her neck, it was the same pearl that had used that pulse. She then listened to what he was saying about the two women in front of her. She also sensed power from them as well.
She stepped forward, looking up at him, "M-My apologies..." her voice was light and held the siren note behind it. It was the one thing she couldn't control, though she could control the spell that her voice could cast, she couldn't make the sound it gave go away.
When he had said that she was out of her enviroment, she wasn't surprised that he could tell. Her looks easily gave away her lineage. Her deep blue eyes were soft and to look at them, you would see the ripple of water in their depths. Her skin had a soft glow around it, another thing she couldn't control.
She still didn't meet his gaze. She was afraid to. She was afraid that she had threatened him, when she had no meaning to do such a thing. It was her Mother's pearl that protected her when she couldn't do so herself. But, she could have protected herself, why did the pearl react? That confused her the most.
She then watched as one of the women stood up for the two of them, she was surprised. The woman had no need to stand up for her, they had never even exchanged a single word. And then the other woman she defended, she felt...Sheena couldn't explain it.
When the red headed man spoke to them to reveal their names. She was a little scared at the attention she was now being given. "M-My name is...Sheena...and please...forgive me. It was not my intention to attack...my pearl just...reacted. I don't know why..." she was scared and the fear presented itself as she spoke.

Mayumi sighed. She could still hope could she not? She continued to look at Dark.She couldn't even assume his feelings on the battle. He seemed laid back enough, but way back at the celebration he seemed almost tense. Maybe because of Daton... She thought silently.

Bandi eventually parted ways with Ghost and headed to his tent to see if he could further muster information about the Jirigo demon. His texts and info that he had personally were limited, so he would eventually borrow the resources from the temple. But from what he could gather, Jirigo was a Demon who had powers over shadows.
He eventually pulled his head out of the pages and took his staff. He'd walk the perimeter to stretch his leg and get some fresh air.

Snide looked down on Bandi ((ha)). Watching his movements and paying close attention to his accesories. "He seems to have powers in the arts, he could be a grave threat." he thought to himself. Snide shifted his wait to keep an eye on Bandi, which made the branch move abnormally. Snide froze waiting to see if Bandi had heard him.

Bandi was still in his tent when he decided that it would be best if he consulted Evan, the priest about Jirigo. From what he had gathered from their short acquaintance, he had much knowledge of th dark arts as much as the light, and he had access to the Temple. So he walked out of the tent and headed to the temple in hopes that the priest would be available.
Besides, there was something about the priest that appealed to him. Ever since that brotherly bond he had mysteriously felt, he was more and more curious as to his past.
Fully immersed in his thought, Bandi was not aware of being watched. [edit] ((Edited to clarify he didn't notice anything. You may attack or engage in any way you wish, Snide.))

Sci moved around the town. He heard a commotion about some old man dying but that wasn't what he took notice of. A figure was moving in his territory, a person was trying to avoid detection by hiding in the darkness. A man by his presence, and not normal. But this wasn't to be tolerated. Not only was he different but as sci could read his aura he was not of the red rebels. Sci moved into the shadows to follow him becoming one with them to hide every part of his being down to the last speck of his essence. Sci pinpointed his location and watched as he followed Bandi. This wouldnt do, not at all. Bandi was his way of finding out the information he needed about his father. But suddenly the man lost interest it seemed and walked straight into camp. Sci moved into the mans own shadow and followed his movements. One little problem and sci would destroy him.

The blond stopped in her place, at that moment a small wind blew causing her hair to defy gravity. Her fists clenched together ever so slightly but they soon released. She turned her gaze back to the red haired man over her shoulder. Only her bright blue eyes showed between strands of blond hair “You know so much about me. Perhaps you would remember that. I give my name only to those who deserve it, and you, don’t” She didn’t take well to people who were trying to toy with her emotions, and he was doing just that, toying with her. Ray had warned her about such men, they would use you, abuse you then tear you apart till there was nothing left.
It was at that moment in time that the blond truly felt a dark emotion for what had to be the first time in her life, she was sure she hated someone. It shone deeply in those icy blue sapphires, a cool feeling as if her heart could freeze over at any second. Her heart remembered this man, she didn’t know why but it throbbed with both pain and sorrow. Under these emotions lye something she could only explain as love. But he said to throw the past away right? Then she would do so, she would learn from her past selves and not get involved with this man beyond what was destined to be. She would hate him, and for that she would avoid the pain she knew would come from loving him.
Her eyes softened as she let her gaze fall on Ameena “ I will do as you wish my lady, for I am a servant of faith who will not deter on my path, despite my obstacles” And she was leaving then, one foot step after another till she felt she had put enough distance between them, then began to run.
____________________________
Ray gave a small nod and her body sank into the shadows. The last thing she saw was her sister, running. While she wanted to stop and go to her, she had made a promise and she was a woman of her word. The world was black. Nothingness and silence consumed her and the small creature. A tug here and a tug there made the trip uncomfortable but the pale woman lowered a hand and placed it on the plush’s back to keep him from being pulled away. A small light invaded the darkness and they went to it. The shadows swirled and she stepped into a dark and murky looking forest. The ground was damp and the trees looked quite clawed and hungry at that. “let me do the talking” Of course she was use to traveling with her sister so it was the first thing that came out of her mouth.

Hokyo Cumen The Capital
Dark laughed a little at Mayumi, and let his head hang backwards. “We knew that your mission wasn’t going to bear any fruit, It was simply a way to show the people that we were investigating the rebel movements, just write that you had a nice trip of scenery.” He commented rather sore, he had never liked the idea of continuing to lie about things to the people, but this was needed to keep people happy. Glancing at Soma, Rena was engaging in conversation with the boy.
Soma glanced at Rena, a bit of a smile spread across his face. “Couldn’t stay away huh?” He asked knowing it was simply a joke. His limbs felt like they were heavy weights, nearly four hours and Dark seemed only barely tired. “That man is some type of monster Light!” He spoke rather loudly, but was sure that his conversation wasn’t going to be carried, soldiers had began to enter the courtyard.
Rena looked at Soma and smiled "of course not " she laughed gently at the joke Soma made. She noticed how Soma looked tired and smiled. She remembered what it was like when she first began trainging, but assasin work was a little harder because they had to learn how to get information out of people but also how with stand Interrogation if caught. It was very hard to get through but Rena just smiled at Soma. She laughed once Soma made the comment about Dark. She looked over at Dark with a smile "Well he was always good at keeping himself strong and it always took him a long time to get tired" she said gently she had only watched Dark train but she always liked watching him train. She looked at Soma "how you feelings with the training apart from tired" she asked Soma softly. Noticing soldiers were entering the courtyard now.

The thief listened intently to those around her. The people gathered here seemed to be so different and complex compared to herself. Here she was, a brash young woman with no sense of volume control and ready to fight at the drop of a pin if someone even seemed to breathe at her wrong.
This soft spoken girl she now assumed to be called Sheena. The thief looked at her as she thought to herself. This woman was even further from her own personality than Yune had been. She was shy, she stuttered from the nervousness in her voice. Her features were even different than the thief's. Kira had jagged, platinum spikes in her bun, and sun kissed skin, the sign of a laborer. This Sheena woman had pale skin like alabaster, and dark brown hair like a waterfall of chocolate. The two were opposites, the thief confirmed to herself. And she didn't like it one bit. A woman who had no backbone to stick up for herself pissed her off to no extent, and so she turned from her back to Yune.
This woman may have been the most complex of all the people in their new little party. She was pale, yes. With blonde hair. But, none of her physical features really showed how she was inside. She was regal and caring, while at the same time proud and feisty. Something about this girl made Kira's brain tingle, and it put a smile on her face. The way she took such a rude tone with the red head one minute, and then such a soft, kind one with the girl the next made her smile at the thought of being able to perhaps get to know this woman as a companion.
As Yune began to run off and take her leave, the thief looked back at their two "leaders". She gave the red head a cocky smirk as she gave him a ridiculous excuse for a salute. Then, she turned to the child, and gave a wide, goofy smile. She rose the hand she had used to salute with and waved before she turned on her heels, and took off after her the blonde. Nearing her quickly, and came to the woman's side and glanced at her face.
"You alright? Did I miss something?" The thief asked curiously. For the first time, she sounded genuinely concerned for her, though for someone who had just met her, they still may not be able to decipher such an idea from her naturally rude sounding tone.
The small creature had held tightly onto the woman as they had traveled through what he could only describe as some sort of abyss or portal. But, as they reached the end, he finally was able to let go of the woman and hover in the air at her side.
He tilted his head every which way to look about them at their surroundings. This type of area looked oh so familiar to the one he had last seen before being turned into this ridiculous form. But, he new this was not the exact place. They just looked familiar, they didn't feel familiar.
He then turned his attention to the dark haired woman and nodded his head. It's not like he could talk anyway. Was he going to squeak this witch his demands? He concluded not.

Red Rebels
Ameena let out a small giggle when Kira questioned her. Though when the two had ran off she smiled towards Hokyo. “For being someone that dealt with people you need to learn how not make them angry my dear Hokyo.” Ameena said and then turned her attention to Sheena. Of course Hokyo cleared his throat and took his seat again. Ameena had not even noticed the girl when she had attacked her men, however Hokyo did, which means the girl was interesting. She thought for a moment as Hokyo drank his wine in silence, she slightly kicked his shin, she wasn’t happy with him of how he had treated those other women, but that was just it. Hokyo’s entire personality was bent in order to make people hate him, he was rather funny and charming when you got close enough, but to everyone else he was just the measure to an end with this war.
“My dear Sheena, why did you come here?” Ameena asked rather amused, the girl was beautiful, she looked as though she belonged in water, Ameena had heard of many races that lived in the world of Shindi however not many were alive anymore.
The Capital
Dark glanced at Mayumi, a smile spread across his face. “Yes you are right I am formal around Lord Daton, I am one of the Five Pillars, I need to appear so in front of the people. Otherwise they may think we are weak and attempt to kill our Lord.” He looked towards Soma for a moment, but ignored Rena he felt it was a good thing. “Do you know why strong people gather around Daton Mayumi?” He asked rather interested in her answer.
Soma laughed at Rena, of course he was actually enjoying himself for once, but he wasn’t sure how he felt towards Daton as of yet, he felt hatred towards Hokyo this he was sure of. His hand twisted around his sword and looked at Rena with a bright smile. “Actually really powerful, I haven’t felt weak once since I got here.” He said, which was true in the woods he was not a powerful person, but here he was stronger for some reason.

Snide collected info on supplies, troop numbers, and other things to that nature. When he felt that it was enough to report a good report he deceded to leave camp. He headed back the way he came makeing sure not to be seen. But something was off.
After leaveing the camp and going a fare distance, Snide stopped. The feeling was with him still. He sniffed and tated the air, while at the same time listening for any one near by. He knew some one was neat just not where. "Okay who ever, or what ever, you are show yourself." Snide was ready for just about anything.

Yune slowed when she was joined by Kira. She had not expected such. She could only blink and smile softly. “Do you believe in reincarnation Kira?” she knew the woman’s name now due to the introductions, so she would use it to address the woman. Thief was just not a good enough name for someone as pretty as her. The blond closed her eyes and continued to walk at a slow pace. “Due to my abilities, I have been able to see the dead sense I was a child. Because of this I got to talk with my mother and even see my past selves, wither or not you believe any of this is up to you. But I knew him once, not in this life.” she was not sure how much she would tell because she wasn’t sure how far the story rally went. She just had glimpses and such, strong feelings.
She placed her hands behind her head and took on her normal every day smile. She was thinking to far into it. Maybe that was why people could never get a good read on her, she was ever changing as the flames inside her own body. She was so true to her emotions that people often didn’t know what to expect. While Ray kept everything locked inside, Yune as ever expressive as her flames could not contain her feelings and sometimes even pushed them on others.
She didn’t look back, she didn’t need to. She knew he wasn’t fallowing her so there was no point in running. So she would enjoy her stroll with Kira.
_________________________
Ray gave a nod and even rolled her eyes because of the fact that she was so sure she had said something so stupid to someone that couldn’t even talk. She moved around the soft ground, stepping the familiar path that would keep her safe from having to clean her shoes. As they moved deeper in they could see a small cottage built under a rather large and old tree. The roots covered the house, extending from one end to the other with no problem. The windows and door remained unblocked however for some strange and unknown reason.
The dark haired woman moved to the door and without knocking or any sound really, she pushed it open and stepped inside. The cottage was lightly furnished, one chair, one table, a small set of kitchen utensils and little glass jars filled with strange things almost everywhere. “Yo Hicky, get out here.:
As if out of nowhere a man came. He was rubbing his eyes from sleep and stretching an arm over his head. “What do you want Ray? Do you know how early it is. If the moon’s not up it’s too damn early.” However the man stopped, his eyes opening a bit more as they fell upon a floating creature. A demon perhaps? No he didn’t have that kind of feel to him. As the man looked harder he could see it, a chained soul. “What are you doing bringing cursed things into my home? “ He moved over to the kitchen and began to fix himself up a cup of what could only be guessed as tea. He waved his finger and the tea began to brew itself as a cup laid itself out for him.
Ray placed her hand on her hip and rolled her eyes quite annoyed with the man “ I want you to take a look at him and see what you can do. He, interests me and you’re the only one that I know with the skill to help me out here.” The man turned up his hand and curled his finger in a ‘come here’ fashion. His chair shot across the room and rested behind Ray.
“Sit.” she did, even if she did have an annoyed face. Then the man looked to the plush. He patted the counter top for Gizmo to come and then turned to get his tea. “ I have to see what I’m working with. This is a strong curse, I can feel it from before you entered my home.”

Mayumi crossed her arms across her chest. She didn't like him in her head. His question caught her by surprise. She didn't think she knew the answer, but she had thought about this question many timse before now. Mayumi pursewd her lips. Why do strong people gather around Daton... There could be a few answers. One could be for more power, greed was a popular emotion. Another would be to find a worthy purpose to serve, but that would be naive. One more would be attraction to power. Mayumi decided her answer. " I'm not all that sure of my answer, but I think it would be because of their own fear of him." She muttered her answer, hoping Dark would stop laughing. Mayumi started picking more thorns out of her legs.
