Iris smiled, "Great. Seifer will you come with me please? We can talk about this new idea of yours as we go get some gold for Ziro." She said as she started walking out the door. She may of asked it as a question, but she expected Seifer to follow her.
Adele smiled and couldn't help thinking, 'This is going to be fun.' She focused onto the earth and stone around her and thought to Ellen, 'There is a stairway down at the end of the hallway, about 25 feet away. Once your up the staircase, there is a door, I don't sense anyone around it, so go ahead and walk through it.' She started focusing on what was further away, but the further she got, the more blurry her 'vision' got.

"Fine, it isn't particularly complex but I may as well." Seifer said as he followed after his rather pushy princess. He glanced briefly at the recruits on the way out.

Ellen nodded to Adele and began to navigate her creation out of the dungeon and up the stairs. Hopefully her own sense of direction was still working properly so she wasn't walking half in / half out of a wall currently. In her minds eye, she could faintly see what the illusion was seeing, but not so much that she would trust herself not to make it obvious it was a fake. Noticing the faint shape of a door, she pushed her copy through it. 'Okay now where?' She asked now keeping to her thoughts this time.

"Well, I might as well get some shut eye, and I suggest you two do as well." Orin told Ziro and Genji. "You never know when you'll have to jump."
"I think that would be a wise thing to do." Genji replied. He then turning to Ziro, asking, "We can go now, or we could go back to the library and wait for the princess to fetch your payment. You seemed interested in some of the books, and I'm sure I'll find something that I'm interested in."

Ziro nodded at Genji and started toward the library. "They've got something interesting about the first lightning elementalists. Lets go."

Iris started walking down the hallway when she looked at Seifer, "Okay then, what is this plan of yours? I have something in mind already, so I wanted to talk to you before our recruits got any ideas." For a spit second Iris's vision got blurred and then everything was dark. She blinked and then shook her head, and then everything was back to normal. 'What is Violet up to?' she thought, 'And where is whats-his-face the dark elemental. I know he is here somewhere.'
Adele concentrated on the stones of the Castle. 'Go right... about 30 paces. Then turn left. Walk that way for a bit then stop. I can feel.... two people, walking towards the illusion.' She tried to figure out who it was who was walking towards the illusion, but everything was getting blurry and she couldn't get anymore details other than the fact that there were two of them.

'Got it!' Ellen thought responding to Adele and then proceeded to move her copy through the halls in the direction she was told. As she got close to where she was told to stop, she sent a bone chilling laugh echoing around her. Hopefully it would unnerve whoever it was coming towards it.

"Well, you said you would send groups out to different parts of their nation. I figure if I attack Ardere Isola that might serve as a cover. Since the two of them are assassins, it would be easier to sneak them into more distant territory, say Suggerimento da il Mondo, to take it more covertly. Even if water does get word of my attack, they wouldn't split their forces based upon an assumption of other attacks, it would be foolish." Though Seifer's gaze was focused upon the hallway passage ahead, out of the corner of his eye he noticed Iris shaking her head which for all he knew was a typical reaction to a headache. "Something wrong, your highness?"

Iris looked at Seifer, "Nothing is wrong." To her self she thought, 'At least not right now anyway.' She thought Seifer's plan over a bit. She lowered her voice so that only Seifer could hear her. "Our plans are similar, but I was thinking of something a bit more sneaky. Something that covers our tracks a bit better. I was planning on using the ceremony as the cover an send in small groups of people to attack the nation from different fronts. For my plan each group will have one person of Fire in them. That person will only be there to observe. That is why Violet and I have gone and gathered people from the other nations to attack for us. We will not start any fire there, that way they have no evidence that we did anything. As of the moment we have the two Lightning elementals, an Earth elemental, one other girl, what element she is from I'm not sure..." it was then that Iris heard a laugh coming from down the hallway. She looked and saw the girl that had spoken to her before, "And she is not where she should be." In a split second she pulled out some throwing starts and threw them at the girl.

Ellen couldn't really tell what was happening, but she did know that the girl had just thrown something at the illusion of herself. 'Ah crap. I did want to keep the fact that it wasn't really me a secret for awhile...' She thought fast and moved the copy a few feet to the side to avoid it best she could, but she wasn't quite fast enough and she felt one of the darts slice through a portion of the upper arm. To make it seem real, she created a small cut where the darts were and then caused 'blood' to pour out a bit. The doppelganger looked down where the cut was and then back to the girl and her lackey. "Oh my... it seems you've cut me." She shrugged and then leaned against the wall in indifference. "I got lonely and came to find you and this is how you treat me? I don't know why all these people stay with you." She hoped to get a reaction from this, or maybe spill a bit of Fire's plan. Who knows? cause she certainly didn't.

Iris smiled, and in a split second she was a few feet behind the girl, putting her between Iris and Seifer. The throwing stars were embedded in the wall by Iris. "I take back what I said," Iris said with a small laugh, "You are exactly where you should be." She pulled the stars out of the wall, "Because what stands before me now is just an illusion." She examined the stars, "If i really did cut you, then there would of been blood on the trowing star that cut you, but all of them are clean, telling me that that is fake blood," she said pointing at the blood on the girls arm, "And that is a fake being." She smiled, and in another second she was beside the girl, her staff in hand. "Do not mistake me for a fool." she said in a low voice, "Just wait a few more seconds and I will come and see you child, but for now, be a good girl and stop causing trouble." she said as she ran her staff through the illusion, making it disappear. She then turned back to Seifer, "Come on, I have some people you should meet." She then continued walking down the hallway towards the dungeon door.

Seifer remained silent in speech and posture at the brief distraction caused by what was shown to be an illusion of a young girl he hadn't seen before. For the moment he didn't see reason enough to reach for his weapons or raise an alert over the would be intruder, since the princess made quick work to dispel it. Judging by the context of that last bit of lecture to the illusion of such a misguided girl, and the direction they were taking in the halls now, Seifer figured they would quickly see that girl again in the flesh this time. "One of Orin's findings?" Seifer presumed.

Ellen sighed and rested her head back against the wall. She didn't say anything to Adele, she would know soon enough that they were coming. 'What do they want to do to us? Take our lives for knowing too much? Or leave us locked down here to rot just for fun?' She turned her head to look at the entrance of the dungeon, keeping her thoughts to herself. 'If only I was stronger... I could actually do something to help. Right now I'm just dead weight, nothing I do will actually harm them.'

Bloom entered the castle in a burst of flames. She saw Iris and Seifer further down the hallway. She ran up to them, and turned to Iris, "I have news from Violet, Menos has left. We think he has somehow learned of the attack and is on his way back to the Water Nation. Violet said that she will stay in the Throne Room to take advantage of the situation at hand." She stayed and waited for orders.
Iris smiled at Seifer, "Two of Orin findings. Two girls." It was then that Bloom appeared, 'Got the message loud and clear Violet,' she thought to her sister with a hint of sarcasm, 'Don't know why you sent Bloom though, when we can talk like this.' She turned her attention back to Bloom. "Well, that changes the plans a bit." She said with a sly smile. "Go back and tell her to do whatever she wants. I can't stop her. But just to keep in touch, I need to know what she is up to in order to work out a new plan. What do you think Seif?"
Adele looked at Ellen in confusion, she could tell that Ellen was disappointed about something. 'Whats going on?' She could tell that the two people stopped by the dungeon door, when suddenly a third person appeared out of no where. 'Ellen! Whats going on up there? Do you know who that third person is? Has anything happened to the illusion?' She thought urgently, she hated not knowing what was going on. And she was determined to find out.

"Why do I get the feeling that one of our new allies may have decided to rat us out?", Seifer shook his head, asking no one in particular. Since the situation had changed and the plan was likely to evolve greatly in response Seifer started to think of what course of action to take. "I'm not too sure what to think. Does this change of situation, change your goals? The Prince of water certainly isn't doing himself or the union any favors by leaving the castle, but either way we can't perform the ceremony without a royal from water present."
