Welcome to Gaia! ::

After noon

Rikku

"Ok lets go then." Alexander and rikku walked out of their room and sure enough there were armed guards just outside the room, but they just looked at her and nodded, they walked through the palace normally but rikku knew better, she had a feeling that they were being watched from all angles.

They entered the library. "I wish you could see this..." Rikku stated looking at the incredibly expansive library, bigger than anything she'd seen in her life, other than the castle in the capital city. "That maiden said that the people in the town don't know about what is going on... and since the library is a public building I doubt we will encounter very many roadblocks... this time anyways... so we might want to get as much reading done here as we can." She said walking up to the receptionist, "Hello, I am the high priestess Rikku, I need to see the ancient texts, and anything relating to something called the "Dark Raven" Clan, please." Rikku said in a kind tone.

"Well Lord Velu has told us not to let anyone back there but I am sure he will make an exception for the priestess, if anyone has a right to read those texts it is you, mi'lady." THe librarian stated, motioning for them to follow her into a different room in the library, it smelled kind of musty... but that was only because the books in this room were so old. "I've noticed that your friend is blind, if you are looking for brail, it is all located on this wall.." the woman said pointing alexander in the direction of the wall before walking back out. "just tell me when you are done, and if you want to check anything out."

"Ok thank you! and we will." SHe said looking at some of the books before pulling one out that said something about dark ravens. "Well alexander... there is a very broad selection, you can look through that whole wall if you want," She said grabbing his hand and leading him over to the brail wall, if there is anything you need just tell me and I will get it for you." She said sitting down and opening the book and began reading.

Ty

"Who are you trying to tell me what to do!" He roared again, and flames shot from his mouth, "She is the only thing I have loved in a long time, and noone will stop me from taking her back." He said doing a corkscrew in mid air, trying to throw jaden off.

Melody

"Jaden! Be careful!" She said as he bravely leaped the gap and onto ty's back. "Larris hold on tight, this is going to get bumpy..." SHe stated standing on her broom like she was surfing, as she held out her staff, "holy chains!" She yelled and few white chains lept froward from her staff and wrapped themselves around him, as she tried to force him to slow down, it was working but only a little. "Jaden! Do it now we are getting too close to the town, people are going to start panicking soon." She yelled up to him, desperately trying to slow him down.

Killian

"You are so lucky!" he said picking her up. "You are incredibly lucky that you just happened to sprain your ankle with the one member of our group that knows transformation magic." he laughed as he summoned his rapier and held it up and it glowed before he became a large blond-whitish stallion. "Normally I would've just walked with you, but we don't have any time to spare... even on horse back it is still going to take us a couple of hours to get there..." He said galloping as fast as he could towards the city, which they could now see.

((Sorry, I don't know anyone that wants to roleplay thats not on gaia.))

"An ally trying to prevent you from doing something stupid!" Nodding his head in acknowledgment, Jaden waited for Ty to open his mouth one more time, and tried to shove the bottle into his mouth as they where doing a corkscrew, holding on tightly as possible forcing the liquid from the bottle into Ty's mouth.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Letting go of Melody as she stood up, Larris grasped onto the broom stick for dear life. This was no longer fun, but became quite scary for him.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"If I was truly lucky, I wouldn't have hurt my ankle." She faked a laugh, badly, as she was picked up by Killian as he transformed into a horse, a nice one at that. "At least we should be able to get there faster with you as a stallion now." Scooting forward some on his back, she wrapped her arms around his neck to hold on. Leaning forward she placed her head onto the back of his neck mostly to avoid any low hanging branches that they might run past.

Rikku

Rikku Flipped through a few duds, before she was able to find anything of interest, and was accumulating quite a pile of books. "I'm not finding anything I don't already know from the books in the capital... Hmmm." She said. "This one looks promising." She thought aloud as a bejeweled book caught her eye, and she pulled out an old leatherbound book, adorned with Rubies... it had no title on it, but it was definately covered in dust.... "Are you finding anything...?" SHe asked as she opened it and began flipping through.

TY

As soon as the drugs were put into his mouth, he began to feel dizzy and his eyes began to drift away from him as did his mind. "..." he roared one last time as he began to plummet down to the earth.

Melody

Melody caught them as they fell.... well... at least tried too! but actually wound up tumbling to the ground trying to hold the four of them up, they didn't hit hard enough to do any real damage, but it wasn't the soft landing she was hoping for. but it was better than nothing... and they landed just outside the walls of the city.

Killian

"There Up ahead!" he said as he watched the group plummet to the ground, "That beast we saw in the air was TY!" He said galloping, they burst forth from the forest, but were still a ways away from town.

Dropping all he had, Jaden held onto Ty as they fell back to the ground, trying to stay prevent himself from getting injured as well as Ty but there wasn't much he could do. Hitting the ground, Jaden rolled off to the side, and felt his body, making sure he had no broken bones before just lying on the ground looking up into the sky not saying anything for a moment. "Glad that, thats over." He said after a moments silence, still staring into the sky.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Larris tumbled off the broom as they landed and stood up a few feet away from the group completely unharmed.Turning around, he looked at the city. "Are you all alright?" He asked, not turning as he gazed at the city.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sitting up completely as they left the forest and looked up in the direction to where Killian was hinting towards. "Didn't know Ty could transform into a beast... I hope they are all right, they did fall far..."

"Minos...minos...here" He said. He placed a hand over the page and started reading the words outloud. "Minos is one of the eight demon lords of hell. Like all others minos at one point held mortal status but becasue of many evil deeds he commited he was punished. After many years of suffering he rose too the rank of lord becasue of his knowledge. The torture had left mino's mind, although still sharp, abit mad. His body suffered also. His skin became as white as marble and has a serpent like lowerhalf and what appears too be a crown pretruding from the top of his head. His eyes appear sown shut, but over the years the thread has loosened allowing him blurred vision. Minos has the ability too grow and shrink his body at will, more then often he is atleast three times the size of the person he is judging in order too both intimidate and too show that they are no longer of worth and at his complete mercy. When a damned soul (Reffered too here after as shades) pass throught his door he gains all knowledge of that persons crimes so that he may judge them completly on there actions and not their pleas. Once minos has passed his judgement he circles his tail around the shade too the corresponding level of hell too which they will suffer in, from there they are dropped, falling helplessly too their fate. due too his 'judge' status and ability too know, Minos is often associated with schloars, cults following him are often made of high ranking, people of intellect" Alexander says.

RIkku

"Then why is he so bent on getting back at the world? Does it say any more? If he is a judge then he knows that what he did was evil and there are crimes that he must atone fore." Rikku said sternly. "Anyways does it say anything else about him or about what might be going on?" She asked Curiously.

Killian

Killian got close enough for the other group to hear him if he yelled! "Melody, Jaden!" He called out as he approached the group slowing to a stop, looking over at Ty. "What happened to him?" He asked turning back into his human form and setting Luna on the ground gently.

Melody

"Hmmmmm... what to do about ty." SHe stated looking over. "Oh? I didn't know you knew transformation magic." Melody said to Killian as he appeared. "And well... Ty... I don't really know, he got mad and his form shifted, I can't really tell you much more, other than it didn't feel like normal magic, What happened to Luna?" SHe asked.

Killian

"Oh she sprained her ankle on her way here." He replied.

melody

"Oh! Than luna... do you think you could stay here with ty? It should be quite some time before he is awake again... I hate to ask such a thing of you, but we can't just waltz into town carrying some half shifted enraged, fire, dragon, monster thing..."

"I'm sorry rikku, I think this is just imformation on the demon, not any sort of reasonsing or why they would do stuff. Demon's arn't a very well known species, I'm suprised theirs so much actually" He says.
