Itaka sighed happily "It's the least I could do, I'd buy her a million more if I had to" he said shrugging before following after Seph. "We gotta get Barbaros and the others too though I'm guessing that earthquake served as a pretty rude wake up call" he sighed also whacking Oassu as he passed.
Oassu rubbed his head "Ouch yeah we'll get to see Jenna and it'll be good to see her again" he smiled "I owe her a lot, just hope she's over the whole jealously thing" he said hugging Felina.
Zadina shrugged "It sounds the same it's just a little mistake" he said blushing a little "I'd say a little more but I don't wanna be hit" he sighed letting himself be pulled along.
Mari nodded patting Hebal on the shoulder "Don't be so down about it you deserve more for what you do for us" she chirped.
Alex laughed and sipped his drink "Well I aim to please can't have you disappointed, maybe you can take one as your personal slave, and maybe I'll let Narasaela have Felina, though to be honest Oassu is a good man for her still I can offer them positions on my team if I get ahold of them"

Seph laughed waiting by the doors for the others to catch up "Maybe it's a good thing if the earthquake woke them up. After all some people say it's bad luck to wake a man while he's sleeping" she answered putting her arm around Itaka once he had caught up with her "Do you really think Barbaros will fight?"she asked scratching her chin.
Alpha snickered shaking his head at Zadina following the others out. "Say whatever else is on your mind while you can. They wouldn't hit someone of your age" he reassured. He glanced around the streets outside suspicously. "Judging by the fact that theres less people around I would say they have started the evacuation."
Hebal giggled loosening her grip on Zadina as they headed outside "You can tell us even if you just want to whisper it" she encouraged before pouncing on Mari to give her a glomp. "Hey evacuation is a good thing right? We should hurry up before they try and evacuate your friends at the inn"
Neliel smirked gulping down the rest of her drink "Sounds a little more interesting but why not give the boy to Narasaela? They have a history don't they? Heh no matter I have an old score to settle with Miss Hebal" she grinned rubbing her hands together.

Felina sighed continuing to rub Oassu's head "I can't believe how mean they are being to you" she complained taking him outside the store. "I don't think Jenna likes me but maybe we could get a long better if we spent a little more time together" she suggested quietly glancing around at how many people were left to be evacuated. "They really do work fast" she remarked.
Satoshi snickered watching Hebal pounce on Mari "Heh careful there don't want to go knocking anyone out before we've even got to the airship" she laughed before patting Zadina on the head. "Don't worry about the mistake, now you know for next time" she smiled glancing around for the path to the inn.

Itaka smiled as Seph put her arm around him "Of course he'll fight, Barbaros is a good man and a battle buddy besides he ain't no fan of Alex either remember, if he could take a shot at him here he'd do it so don't worry about it" he said shrugging away Seph's concern.
Mari yelped a little as Hebal glomped her from behind onto the ground but she giggled and turned around and cuddled her back "Thats alright and yeah evacuation is a good thing but if we lie here too long on of the guards might carry a pretty Viera like yourself away thinking he's a knight in shining armour" she said sticking her tongue out at Hebal.
Zadina giggled as Hebal glomped Hebal "Well what I was going to say is that theres so much love between them they may get married eventually too!" he chirped "Besides they are cute enough for it" he whispered to Satoshi.
Oassu nodded "Yea I'm sure you two will get along great with a little time and effort but trust me she's a nice girl really she helped me out and I owe her she's just a little short tempered thats all" he said rubbing his face where he'd been hit by Jenna yesterday.
Alex grinned seeing Neliel rub her hands together "Your kinda cute when your evil, maybe I'll need to see you for a private 'planning' meeting later" he smirked closing his eyes for a snooze

Seph grinned turning off the main street to the area the inn was that they had visited the night before. "Good point and Jenna will want to help Oassu too. All we have to do is convince Gilgamesh and we're set" she cheerfully comcluded ignoring a set of guards, who rushed past the group followed by a handful of people.
Alpha chuckled patting Zadina on the back "Maybe they will one days but they've got some stuff to do first. Hmm now that we are near the inn I wouldn't say no to a quick pint of something while we fetch the others" he muttered looking up at the street signs then moved out the way for the other people to get through. "Looks like they are starting to clear out the area so lets hurry up"
Hebal giggled picking herself up and Mari with her "Hehe I would like to see them try and carry me away. I can get really difficult when I don't want to go somewhere" she answered placing Mari on her shoulders. "Sure they'll get married one day lets all be positive" she chirped to Zadina waving to the guards.
Neliel smiled rising from her chair "Maybe a little later if things go as smoothly as expected. But I should really prepare for battle now so I'll leave you to your relaxation" she told him patting the top of his hat before heading into the tent next to the one Narasaela went into.

Felina smiled stroking Oassu's face where Jenna had hit him. "A little short tempered is a bit of an understatement don't you think" she laughed a little nodding to one of the guards on their way past. She then turned to Alpha shaking her finger "no drinks for you, drinking before battling isn't clever. Save the drinking for when we win" she tutted skipping up to the inn entrance.
Satoshi snickered at the sight of Hebal carrying Mari over to the inn. She then glanced over at Seph and Itaka "They do make a cute couple in a weird sory of way but I think you should be thinking more of when Oassu will become your new cousin" she whispered back to Zadina

Itaka nodded "One way or another they'll all have something against Alex, remember he gave Gilgamesh some bogus information on where Excalibur is besides..." he sighed "I think the big lug wouldn't pass up the chance to have another big battle to write about" he grumbled as they entered the pub.
The staff inside were crowded round the desk while the barman was handing out various weapons from behind the bar. The Bangaa glanced curiously at the newcomers looking very menacing with the weaponry. Among them were the barmaid from last night carrying a spiked rolling pin who waved happily to the group seeing Zadina before they went back to their planning. The bouncer was also seen donning his metal knuckles. Another group of raggedy elves stood in the corner where the waitress took some drinks over to. Some guests were escorted out past the group through the door by some guards but Gilgamesh, Barbaros and a sleepy Jenna were sitting at a table in the corner having some drinks.
Mari squealed a little in shock as Hebal lifted her up. She happily sat on top of Hebal and played with her ears "Wheeeeeee!!!" she cried "It's like awesome up here" she said hugging her ears together and stroking them playfully "Thank you so much" she sighed happily stroking the ears fondly.
Zadina giggled "Oh Yea he'll be like my cousin then won't he when they get married and have kids and I can teach them magic!" he chirped skipping into the bar waving to the waitress as he entered.
Oassu shrugged "She's still good but nah she calms down really quickly" he reassured Felina "Least she hasn't tried to hit you" he teased entering the bar and spotting the groups. "I'm guessing the Bangaa are going to fight too, and a militia or something?" he asked Felina looking at the other elves around the table.

Seph nodded slowly while waving to the group in the corner "They don't seem to be going anywhere from the looks of things" she agreed pulling up a chair for herself to sit down on. "Morning you guys, I see things are pretty hectic for you too" she greeted them but looked over at the bangaa.
Alpha grunted going up to the bar to order himself a glass of water "I suppose alcohol would be a bad thing at thime" he grumbled taking his water over to the table in the corner "Hey you lot. I'm guessing from the amount of chaos going on around here we don't need to tell you Alex is going to attack the place"
Hebal giggled bending down to prevent Mari bumping her head on the door frame "don't squeeze my ears too hard, I need them to stay balenced" she warned Mari skipping accross the room to catch up with the others. "Good morning Jenna, Gilgamesh and Barbaros. We came here to pick you up them make preparations for battle" she explained.

Felina smiled weakly poking Oassu on the nose. "I guess thats a good sign but don't say stuff like that. It makes me nervous" she whispered to him glancing around the room at the other people inside. "The bangaa can fight too but they know it is at their own risk. We have a huge army but it doesn't mean everyone else isn't allowed to do their part" she explained bowing to the groups.
Satoshi laughed ordering Zadina and herself an orange juice from the bar. "Thats right, you could teach them loads of magic spells. That is if their kids choose to become black mages rather than white mages" she pointed out carrying the drinks over to the corner table then pulled up two chairs between Gilgamesh and Jenna "Hey you guys" she greeted them with a wave.

Oassu stroked Felina's arm "Hey don't worry about it I got your back she wouldn't do anything like that," he said sitting down beside Jenna. "Good morning you three guess the wakeup call wasn't very polite" he sighed.
Mari ducked under the door frame earning many curious looks from the groups "Sorry Hebal" she giggled stroking the ears softly "But your fur is tickling my legs" she laughed.
Barbaros nodded to greet the guests "Ya it was quite the wakeup I tell ya, first the ground starts a shakin then these guards burst in and demand we leave while the staff are all barging about the place clearing the rooms" he shook his head and sipped his coffee "Bad morning" he grunted.
Gilgamesh nodded clad in his armour again "The staff are willing to take up arms against this unseen menace who could raise the very earth to the sky!" he said dramatically pausing slightly "such a battle must be coming the kind people will sing tales of for ages." he said
Itaka rolled his eyes I can just tell he's going dreamy eyed at the thoughts of all the endorsements he'll get "Yea Agralian forces have attacked the castle, the battle begins later on today provided Elorin doesn't give up the kingdom" he sat down as Jenna and Barbaros' eyes widened.
"Agralian forces?" Jenna said bemused "Why....thats our kingdom's forces..." she said. "Meaning....." she said slumping a little.
Itaka nodded "Thats right Alex is probably leading them so its in your best interests to fight with us."
The barmaid brought over some hot croissants to the group "Ach forget about the gil love your doin yer bit to help fight after all" she said patting Zadina on the head as he reached for his wallet. Zadina thanked her before turning to Satoshi "I could teach them a little white magic too! I know all kindsa stuff!!" he cheered clearly happy to sit next to Gilgamesh

Seph rolled her eyes at Gilgamesh taking one of the croissants "Doesn't look like Elorin is going to so much as consider handing the kingdom over. Still I like a bit of action" she grinned completely consuming her food in a matter of seconds before starting on a second one. "Heh you can never be too full to go into battle"
Alpha smiled taking one of the croissants "We still got half a day to prepare and stuff. We're going to go to the airship and pick up a few things and drop some stuff off so if your going to be travelling with us you'll need to get all your stuff now" he informed Jenna, Barbaros and Gilgamesh.
Hebal laughed picking Mari up and placing her back down on the ground. "Sorry Mari didn't mean to tickle you. Also maybe we should be a little more serious even if its just while we are in here" she added in a whisper. She looked up at the new members of the group with a big grin "Cheer up guys, you're going to get to see your new living space" she chirped.

Felina nodded squeezing Oassu's hand as she sat down next to him. "Good morning Jenna. I hope you're ok now, you reacted pretty badly to the pollen" she shyly greeted her taking a croissant from the plate the bangaa. "Hey there good timing. Still what took you so long?" she suddenly called accross the room waving to Hayate who had just entered the inn.
Hayate groaned slouching into the first unoccupied chair near the group. "Was busy with an errand for your dad, then spoke to Adohand because I won't be seeing him anytime before the battle then I brought your chocobos over. Heh to be honest I was afraid I was going to miss you then I saw you leave the shop" he explained.
Satoshi waved to Hayate while taking a bit out of one of the croissants. "Looks like the people of this city are too proud to consider surrendering. It's kinda impressive" she told Gilgamesh before turning to pat Zadina on the head. "You're a boy of many talents in that case. I bet you'll impress loads of people in the future"

Jenna yawned drinking her milk "I'll fight, we're going with you guys anyway" she said punching Oassu playfully "Someone has to look after this doofus besides if we get Alex now its pretty much mission accomplished right?" she said glancing at Barbaros.
Barbaros nodded "Ya that'd be the whole trip done with" he said leaning back and grinning "Ahright Itaka we'll fight but if this goes poorly my grandmother is gonna curse you and I'll haunt you forever" he said pointing a warning finger at Itaka.
Itaka grinned "Your grandma hasn't done that black magic voodoo stuff for ages man" he said
Barbaros scratched his head "Dat's right but she still knows a trick or two, besides if we didn't fight we'd probably have to pay for these croissants" he said taking one.
Gilgamesh nodded "That is impressive but I'd be ashamed if I didn't assist them in this noble defence." he said proudly as Enkidu padded down to sit beside him "It'll be an honour besides, this Alex you speak of gave me some false information regarding the location of Excalibur and I need to repay him for that" he said bitterly patting Enkidu's head.
Mari sighed "aww it was fun up there, Sophia liked it too" she giggled holding off a struggling Sophia trying to climb back up "But Hebal's right the airship is lovely, though we might be pushing it for space now" she added.
Oassu smiled pushing Jenna back "Hey I've done alright for myself so far and once we take back the guild there'll be riches and glory for all" he said happily squeezing Felina's hand back.
Zadina giggled "I am a prodigy after all" he said smugly eating a croissant and drinking some orange juice "But I'm really glad you'll be fighting with us Sir Gilgamesh" he chirped looking up at the armoured figure.
Gilgamesh laughed heartily "Aye young master me too" he said ruffling his hair.

Seph smirked patting Itaka on the shoulder. "We better not lose. I don't want some crazy voodoo curse placed on me. Besides theres still loads of things I want to do before I die, like own a chocobo farm or eat a mountain of ice cream without getting brainfreeze" she joked taking yet another croissant. "On a more serious note we have spaces we can squeeze you in but you'll have to share a room"
Alpha rolled his eyes at Seph spreading some butter on his food and waved to Hayate "Barbaros, you'll be with me and him, Jenna will be with Felina Oassu and Zadina, Gilgamesh will be in with Satoshi" he explained passing Hayate a croissant. "So whats the low down on whats going down and what was this post 16 thing you got sent to?"
Hebal shook her head bouncing up and down on her seat "We have pleanty of room left. The more the merrier and if your super good I'll do that again with you sometime" she chirped patting Mari on the head. She leaned over to grab hold of Itaka's arm and examine the damages. "Hmm I'm going to have to fix that soon, Seph don't you go hugging him that tightly again" she tutted.

Hayate leaned back on his chair taking the croissant from Alpha "The soldiers are stationed in 20 different areas of the forest. The places they are stationed at is known as a post. The soldiers at number 16 are those nearest the palace if that makes sense." he explained taking a bit of his food. "Right now we have men evacuating the people into the temple. Also everyone is getting ready to fight."
Felina smiled and nodded at Jenna "You're right about that. Oassu seems to have a talent for running into trouble" she laughed offering him some of her food. "But he has been making you a lot of money lately. He got 100,000 gil just yesterday" she chirped winking at him.
Satoshi grinned leaning over to pet Enkidu "It's good to hear you say that youll fight. It will give the kid some much needed confidence boost" she whispered to Gilgamesh before turning back to Zadina. "Yes you are a prodigy but theres a little thing called modesty" she teased sticking her tongue out at him.
