Welcome to Gaia! ::

Red Kingdom

Hokyo looked at Bandi and Evan, he hadn't noticed it till then, but as he could tell the normal soldiers were down, some mourning Ameena in a corner. The woman Yune had such a rash manner about her, but in a manner that was something Ameena had not had. His train of thought however was brought to a stop as Sci came to his front, begging to aid him.

Hokyo offered a soft smile to the man. "No need to worry Sci, I could not protect her either, and I fear that no amount of magic Sheena will bring her back, her soul is no longer, it simply does not exist and try as you might you would bring back a soulless body which would not be Ameena." He glanced at the small girl which had been his hope for so long. Taking a deep breath, he noticed that in the chaos many of the leaders of the Council were dead, and as it appeared only and him and Bandi were the last remaining ones.

His mind returning to its thought of those around him. Slowly he bowed before Yune. "I declare that, this woman before us, Lady Yune will lead the Red Kingdom." He looked down as he kept his formal pose, a small smile slipped across his face. "As Bandi and myself are the last remaining members of the Council after Kei's attack, I suggest that you should appoint those around you as your new Council, including yourself will make that the seven seats among us." He spoke slowly, with Ameena he had been able to pull the strings but with this woman he could not.

"By doing so you split our military forces into divisions and as the thief Kira has suggested we can prepare our forces, if it is considered alright m'lady Yune I would like to take the assault on the Capital, as I fear that my nick-name has become rusty, as the Blitz division I can assure you that we will break through the walls, I am not going to attempt to sneak into the Capital, people know me there, I will have to take the wall by force in this manner, but I will need your permission to assault the Capital, even if no man follows me." He spoke calmly for feeling so down, for most men what he was asking for was to walk into his own death, but he knew he could break through.

"Ghost, Bandi, and the priest Evan can assume the other three points around the Capital, at which point as I break through the wall at my area, there will be chaos leaving openings on the other walls for those three to break through." He spoke with a cunning ideal, of course the enemy would see him coming but when the soldiers run to support their comrades when he breaks through the wall they will leave the other walls weak.

"Shiva, Kira, and yourself then can support what remains of my squad and assault the castle directly, Shiva can assume medical post within the city walls, and Kira can preform her own terms to help as being a thief she may be able to break through the Castle walls before any of us get there, allowing us open passage." He kept his kneel and he noticed that a few of his squad that was present had taken a stance with him, their arms crossed across their chests. "Kei being removed from the Generals leaves five, but the man that likely took my position is your father is weak compared to the others, if one of our positions should come across a General I assume that the normal soldiers should fall back, among our Kingdom, the people that lead are the only ones that may have the power to handle such powers." He had planned their entire assault on the Capital, he wasn't aware if he had done it on the spot or had it been planned for a long period, that dark pillar in his mind cracked a bit.

Rena saw the soldier coming towards them in a hurry. as he said that general Kei had been murdered she felt her heart rush. She couldn't believe that Kei was dead. She realised that they might be after the generals. If they go after the generals then the soldiers won't do anything. she thought to herself. She looked at Soma. They'll be coming for him if they know he's just been assasigned as general she thought again looking at Soma. As she heard her name being told by Soma as he got up she was a little shocked he had only called her Light never Rena. She nodded to him "Yes of course . . Sir" she said gently. She would not only be Soma's second but she would do her best to protect him. Even if it ment giving her life to protect him. She thought about the old days. when she hda watched Dark and Hokyo practise as generals. She had always admired Hokyo but when he left she fell with hate. She didn't know why, but she did. She looked gently at the sky. Those days are gone forever, Hokyo would never remeber little Light she thought to herself and shut those memories away.

Yunari brought her hands up and crossed her chest and bowed back. She would take responsibility and lead these people. “then first, the counsel, that is easy enough. I will appoint the people who saw what happened today. The people that seem to understand what we are really fighting for and why. So With Bandi, and you already in toe, my sister and I will occupy the same seat, then Kira, Evan, Sci and Miss Sheena. So you are all officially appointed as of now, any questions and such will be taken care of later“ She lowered her arms and smiled at Kira then glanced to Hokyo. “yes and no. You have to know how Kira things before you can just send her somewhere.” She grinned and looked down to her thief friend .

“We will send kira and her force in first. With her skills and abilities she can get inside. Then I can send You in for a frontal attack. While everyone is rushing to you we can have Kria attack from the inside. In the confusion of this we can send in Sci, Bandi and Evan as you suggested from the other three points. This would create more of a pincer and divert attention. If they think like you Hokyo, then they will not expect someone to already be inside. As for Sheena and myself, we are the only healers. I want the two of us as far apart as possibly to cover the most ground. Ray.” At the sound of her name the raven haired woman looked up. “I want you to be our communication. With your mice we can keep everyone informed on the progress of the other.

Ray shrugged easily going with what he sister had said. She folded her arms once more and looked to Hokyo “And as for my father. Ray and I will take care of him. He is our responsibility. I don’t want anyone touching him. If there is one order I issue in my life it will be that. No one, is to touch Sven.” Then she let out a sigh. She had only dreamed of leading people into battle. Even in her past lives she was the one taking orders. “They know Hokyo, so when they see him on the front they will probably not separate as you think. They will expect him to be the diversion, this will make things harder for Kira, but I’m sure she is up for a challenge. Are there any objections?”

She was being more diplomatic. Sure most of the plan was still the same but she had tweaked it a bit. Sometimes thinking a different way could make things turn out better. "oh and Gizmo... i'd like you to be our signal. Kira could probably spot you a mile away."

Sci bowed to Yune and to Hokyo. Sci then struggled to stand. He was weak and it made him feel even weaker to know and admit to himself that he was weak. He needed to train, fight, and train. He wanted to be strong enough to endure anything and everything. Even if it meant closing off even his mind and heart to feel nothing at all. But he also knew in the second part of his mind that that would only make him more weak. He had to find a middle ground. A strange idea came to his mind." Hokyo I want you to help me train. I have to make myself stronger.. I need to make myself stronger I can do nothing if I am not strong enough to stand up on my own power and fight with my own power. And your power is what I could not fight against. And why I ask to fight and train with you."

Jirigo appeared before Daton." The old council is dead as you commanded my lord. The rebels are now leaderless and have no one's true wisdom to draw from. They will seek new leadership and they will seek the wisdom of those of shorter life times with less to draw from." Jirigo had not heard of Kei's death. He had been slightly fond of him and he knew that kei had caused most of the commotion that let him kill the council.

Rena looked down at Soma and smiled gently as his hand brushed her cheek. She smiled gently back at him. "well i shall always answer to you" she said in reply to her being his light. "my white lighting power is at your service" she said with a smile. She hadn't had anyone show her effection like that in many many years. She had missed it. But she wondered would that mean he'd be her weakness if something was to happen. She thought about the mourning service and thought would it be allowed for her to take in a weapon. The only time that there could be an attack would be with something that made them unprepared like a mourning service.

Sheena watched as Sci started walking away. She made her way over to him and began aiding him as he moved, "Here, let me help you...your energy has yet to recover. You shouldn't be forcing your body so hard because you want to be stronger. You will be of no use to anyone if you further injure yourself..."

She blushed lightly as she helped him along, "I have a tonic that will help you sleep better and regain your energy faster..." her chocolaty brown hair flowed over her shoulder as she helped him. She then looked back at the others, "I'll take care of him for now...please, call me whenever you need me."

Kira continued to look up at her blonde haired friend, and found herself continuing to smile wider as she spoke. It was a cocky smile, but a smile none the less. Not that know-it-all smirk from earlier. When it came to this woman, no matter what the topic was that she was speaking about, she felt herself humbled by her presence. It was a strange closeness she had not felt in a long time other than her great friendship with Giz-- er... Night was it? She wasn't sure what his new name was, or what the story was behind how he had found his new voice, but bigger things needed to be discussed at the moment.

The thief found herself almost giddy at the idea of breaking into somewhere. It seemed as if her profession would actually come in handy to these rebels, and it made her feel great. It was a strange feeling. Almost like... a feeling of being needed. A feeling of belonging. And for this silver haired young woman, such feelings had not been a part of her life since she'd left on her journey and actually first became the famous thief she was today. She could feel a ball of excitement welling up inside of her chest as the leader spoke, and she nodded her head to her.

"Yune, you should know by now," She started, "I'm up for any challenge the world dishes out at me. No matter how risky, and how difficult it may be. I can do anything, as long of it's of some benefit to myself, of course," She said in a joking manner as she chuckled to herself.

As he looked up at the blonde as well, Night nodded his small head to her request. He was a tiny creature still, but it seemed even someone like him had a purpose in this rebel cause.

"A beacon, eh?" The small plush asked in response. If he could have, he would be giving that same cocky look Kira had about herself. She did wear off on the little guy from time to time, "I think I can do that for you all. It's not much, but if I'll help, I'm more than willing to assist."

Kira laughed at the small friend of hers, and gave him a playful tap on his small shoulder with her fist. She shook her head, and then turned her head back to Yune who she found walking over to the priest from earlier. She blinked curiously at the other woman as she bent down and began to pray.

Kira could feel her face glow with a slight pink color as she reached behind her and scratched her head in an unsure manner. She hadn't prayed in years and years. Ever since she left her old home. And, it just didn't seem like something she would do. But, here she was, kneeling down beside her much more virtuous friend on one knee with her hands clasped tightly in front of her face. She closed her eyes, but did not speak. She didn't remember any of the old prayers, and so she would let her friend do the talking for her.
