Kevin Downfall wanders in to the Dojo looking cautiously around wondering who was in this Dojo he had heard of during his travels. He keeps going and wanders in deeper.

"I don't suppose you know where you're headed?" Asked a man, frustrated by the female he was following. He was an elf but not nearly as dark skinned as she was. He was a noble just by looking at him and had no facial hair to speak of, as elves rarely do. He was short for an elf though, nearly as short as the female with him. They were wandering the lounge area of the BC dojo and he wasn't sure why.
"Did I tell you to follow me, Seph- I mean, Prince?" she retorted with a hint of poison about how she said the word prince. She looked back over her shoulder at him in her hastened pace before looking ahead. "To tell you the truth I'm not heading anywhere, I'm just where I want to be... the dojo.... now I'm just working on losing you...." she said before the figure before Sephon vanished and he froze mid step in confusion. She sure had gained some strange magics while being out here on her own.
"Lystral!" He called out in anger, "Don't be like that- where are you?!" He said flustered.

Mumbling in her sleep, as if her dream has something to do with pancakes, Sai stirred softly, as she managed to keep herself balanced on the rafters. her normal attire of a red blouse with a black corset , untucked from her black slacks and combat boots, doesn't change. Her light sun kissed blonde hair was down, which hung below her waist, dangled off the rafters. She remained asleep as No one stirred within the dojo for some time now. her gunalet was neatly cased and the energy sparkled away, though un noticed through the covering of Skin that she is able to grow to cover the gunalet.

Turbines wheeled as Tegral's personal transport shuttle veered hap hazardously through the sky. Branches from trees, those that weren't ignited by the no-orbit thrusters, blew away as the belly of the shuttle slid against the canopy of the forest.
"Oh s**t!" Tegral cried, "I just spilled my damn drink!"
Laughter errupted around the Admiral, his 'friends' sitting around with thier own drinks filled the cockpit. Kah, her absurd attire of snow pants and bikini top with theigh high black boots, sat in the co-pilot's seat with a bottle of Southern Comfort that was more than half empty. Rookin, a massive jug of Everclear resting in the crook of his arm, stood behind the two bellowing laughter as the Admiral's flask of whikey fell over and splashed on the metal grating of the cockpit.
"Save the booze!" Roared the Admiral.
All three jumped to save the liquor, including the Admiral who'd happened to be flying at the time.
Seconds passed with no control, the air craft spiralling out of control, until the ship's AI took command and leveled out a landing vector. The shuttle thunked against the ground and it's ramp slid from the confine's of it's shielded interior.
...And Tegral, Rookin, and Kah stumbled out towards the dojo. Arms wrapped around the other's shoulders.
"Sing it with me boys!" Kah shouted and began singing a boisterous version of the classic '99 bottles of beer on the wall'. That both the Admiral and Rookin both picked up in off key, loud, vigor.

The vibrations of a Ship landing Stirred Sai softly as She peeked open her blue eyes. Uncrossing her arms from behind her head she yawned softly, giving her body a stretch. She curled back into her position on the rafters until she was being annoyed by loud drunken singing, in which was way off key.

Bursting through the front door, Rookin acting like a living battering ram, Tegral leapt through the open portal, dropping his flask and literally depositing himself right on his butt as he lost his footing and stumbled back. Kah was amused to no end as she almost fell over herself as she held her gut laughing at the Admiral.
"Yeah, shut up, you just like looking at my butt." Tegral shot at Kah as he stood up and dusted invisible dust from his bum.
"Oh yeah, baby." Kah responded sarcastically and took another, long, swing of the 'fruity' tasting liquor.
"Now, now, you two. If you're going to go at it like jack rabbits let me get far, far, away." Rookin butted in and took a drink of his own, clear, drink.
Outside they were all happy and friendly, drunk and care free, but on the inside their cybernetic brains were still tactically alert.
"There's someone here." Tegral shot the encrypted message through the short range command com links the three shared.
"Yeah, ignore them." Kah responded and took another drink to drive her point home. "We're suppose to be relaxing."
"She has a point, Sir." Rookin said while he started over towards the 'lounge' area of the BC.

Clinging onto the rafter as she nearly fell from her perch as the three stumbled in, Sai panted slightly as she was scared out of her wits from the sudden noise. She Sat up as she rubbed her eyes gently, glaring down at the 3 who were making the racket at such and early hour of the night. Her left fingers dug into the rafter for balance as the skin melted away and large claw like structures buried into the wood.

Lystral was just outside of the dojo and wanted the strangers as they approached her then walked right passed. She huffed at them from where she was leaning on the wall, she never had never sort of care on weather these people were stronger than her or not. The mere fact that they were drunk had her frustrated. She followed them inside though she wasn't sure why, probably cause she was still friends with Sephon even if she wouldn't admit it.
In the dojo Sephon heard the ruckus outside and watched them through a window then saw that they were heading his way. He looked around the room but decided not to run, instead he went to sit down in a chair, this was the lounge after all, why not use it till he could find Lystral again.

Kevin Hears the landing and soon afterwards the off key singing and goes to see who would have such a bad attempt at nintey nine bottles of beer. Seeing them completly drunk in the lounge he comes in, puts down his claymore, sits and decides to wait till they are sober and awake to see if he can find anything out from them about the dojo.

Tegral turned at the intrusion of the new members, members of the Black Company he'd actually never met before, and raised his flask in greetings. "Hail and well met my friends!" He called while Rookin flopped down on one of the many couches littering the Dojo's interior, the furniture's structure creaking under the armored weight of the elder man who'd begun drinking again. "Come, come and join the merriment!"
Kah flung herself at the Admiral, arms wrapped around his neck and sloshing her liquor across the front of his stained white, button up, dress shirt. "Yeah, we've got plenty o' booze for the whole lot of you!"
Grasping Kah on the wrists Tegral gently, well as gently as he could considering the crushing power of Kah's cybernetic arms could have destroyed a tank easily, pried his Commander of Special Operations off his shoulders and back. "Aye that, we've got plenty of drink if you'd like to partake."
And Rookin raised his jug.

Seph looked up at the man who offered him a drink and he smirked at him but waved a hand out in front of him politely. "No thanks. I keep away from the stuff, I'm too easily swayed by it-" he said and saw Lystral enter the room behind them.
She gave him a small glare. "I wasn't going to leave you in a room with a bunch of booze and drunks, I'm not that stupid." she hissed and sank into a couch near Sephon but not near enough for anyone to think they were in a relationship together, because they weren't.

As Tegral and his group landed, the stranger was roused from sleep. The man had probably only had 30 minuted of it at least before the whoop-la started. Peeking out of a window in the room he was in, the stranger would try to see what was going on. This place wasn't as dead as it had first appeared to be. Seeing as the party had moved indoors, the man would creep from the upper level room, to hear what was going on down below in the common area. It looked as though alcohol was on the menu.
" W-wha--? "

Passing the forest itself had been a mild nostalgia bomb. How many times had something gone down in the forest that Thanatos was involved in? There had to be at least half a dozen incidents. The most memorable was easily the short lived battle with Xol, but that had been years ago, in another era it felt like, with different people. Than no longer cared to associate himself with memories of who he'd been as a member of the Black Company.... truly a different time indeed.
"Now what the hell's going on here....." Thanatos knew from Zio's reports that the dojo had been rebuilt, and it had a structure completely different from before, but he couldn't tell what the other large mass in the area was. Being blind, he had little in the way of being able to determine that the ship was Tegral's, and if he could, he still wouldn't know what to make of the cyborg's presence here. Ignoring it for now, Thanatos made his way to the main dojo structure, opting to leap over the large stone walls of Black Company grounds instead of finding a door. Now close to the dojo, he could easily feel the presence of many people, only one being somewhat familiar. Because they were cyborgs, Thanatos had a harder time determining the presence of Tegral and his compatriots. Still, he didn't let the sound of cheering and good spirits, pun intended, get in the way of his approach, and soon he was walking up the stairs to the dojo's main entrance.

Making herself more comfortable on her rafter, her gunlet remained visible, as she leaned against the rafter wall. She was out of sight and out of way, off everyone, then again all they had to do was look up and they'll See her. She sighed and shook her head at the drunk men and woman, No familiar faces came into view. She kept her eye on them seeing who would make the biggest fool. She remained silent for now as the show below was more entertaining then sleep. her blue eyes gleamed a cat like green in the dark, as She let her leg dangle over the side slightly, rocking it softly.
The drunks who walked in remind her of her home, where there was always drunk men, chasing the barmaids, instead of a traditional pirate tavern, the females actually fought back with swords. She let out a heavy Sigh, as the memories of her past was fading, though she feels that theres a part of her life she was missing, and this place she was in felt all so familiar and calming as if she lived here for years now. With a slight shrug, she focused down at the show below.

((Eh I wouldn't normally do this... but what the heck))
Sephon felt like someone was watching him from above and it was an odd feeling, he was used to feeling like someone was watching him, but from above? He looked up into the rafters then spotted a set or eyes there, and a gauntlet. He studied whoever it might be a moment before getting to his feet and walking away from the group, not looking up cause he didn't want to attract attention, not that he had been anyway. And when he was far enough away that the group might ignore him in their drunken chatter, he jumped up, grabbing a hold of the rafter and hoisting himself over it, gracefully. He sat down on it and looked ahead of himself at the girl he had seen there. He wasn't too close to her to 'pop her bubble' but he was close enough to talk and not disrupt the drunks below, Lystral- well she's easy to disrupt. "What's your name?" he asked calmly.
