"Wear himself out, so that when we get to the village, I can do my job, and The Organization doesn't get angry with me, I need to keep out of trouble." Clare looked at the agile human, "Not to be rude or steal your spotlight with the others, but as long as I stay under the radar and don't let you three bring a whole lot of attention to me, we'll be safe for a while yet."

"I'm okay Raki." Aiya barely flinched when the sword nearly hit Raki. "Is there anything you'd like us to do Clare? You know so we're not in the way and all." She had a thought of traveling through.

Raki looks at Clare, "For a while? Trouble with the Organization? What's going in?"

((Ok so we're all on the same page, There is a new player, our first Male Claymore.
Gaian Name: Tonas
Character Name: Warren
Species: Claymore
Gender: Male
Appearance: 
Age/Years as a Claymore: 38
Rank: N/A
Bio:
"So, you wish to hear my tale then? Of how I carry the form of a male, while bear the power and strength of a Claymore? Very well then. I suggest you make yourself comfortable, for my story is not some simple serenade which will float through one ear and out the other. No, my story is like any other story, but only a few chapters behind with many, many pages untimely ripped from its spine. I do not recall much of my time before I was merged with the Yoma... I do remember it was a simpler time, simply travelling the world, doing my part in countries that I passed through to combat the Yoma with my trusted blade, "Roseblood". I knew of the Claymores, I knew of the extreme pain that would occur should one dare to meld the Yoma with the human body, I was aware that men who did so always died or became corrupted and Awakened, because we simply cannot contain the pressure and power that is unleashed within us. I knew this, and thus refrained from doing so with all my effort and strength, regardless of the temptation of more power. I remember... I had gone to sleep that night, after a strenuous battle... slightly wounded, though I had managed to patch the injuries and stop the bleeding. When I awoke, the bleeding had begun anew, and was growing out of control, the pain was almost unbearable. As a result, I did the unthinkable, I took the flesh and blood of the Yoma I had killed and consumed it, in hopes that it would either give me relief from this pain or at least, a quick and merciful death."
Warren sighs and looks back in your direction.
"I'm not certain how much time passed from there until I awoke again, but I awoke with my wounds closed and the blood on the ground was simply stained there, no longer flowing freely. I was confused how I had not died, or at the very least became corrupted from the Yoma flesh. I realized I only had one option. If The Organization got a hold of me, they would not want to risk the release of yet another Awakened in the world, and would have likely had me killed on the spot.
I ran.
I ran into hiding in the mountains, not from the Yoma, or The Organization, but from myself. I knew there could only be one solution. To master the corruption inside of me, to make it bow to my will and not allow it to consume me, as I had consumed it. More than thirty years have passed since my transformation, and in that time, I am the master of both sides of my inner-self, both human and Yoma. I've returned from my isolation and training, and with 'Roseblood' in hand, I intend to continue my fight against not only the Yoma, but anyone who dares to treat me as anything more than who I once was."
"I am more than just a human."
"I am more than just a Claymore."
"I am Warren, and this is who I am."))
"The last battle has opened my eyes a bit, and there might be some trouble in the future. As for Kir, you are welcome to stay with me, there will be no danger to you, and you can keep the people of the town calm."

A six foot man with cropped blonde hair and silver eyes stared off into the distant horizon. With a complacent sigh, he closed his eyes and whispered to the nature surrounding him.
"It's been more than thirty years... Are you ready, 'Roseblood'?" he said with a smile as he lovingly gripped the handle of his most trusted blade.
Warren took in a deep breath and listened to the wind as it breezed through, feeling the energy in the atmosphere nearby.
"There are others nearby... Yoma? Hmm.. maybe not... Shall we go see then, old friend?" he grinned as if the inanimate blade could respond.
"My thoughts exactly," he laughed.
With that, Warren jumped down from his perch and dashed away, leaving naught but a trail of dust in his stead.

Aiya nodded. She didn't need much. She still hadn't decided if she should stay with them or go back to traveling alone.
((I forget is Thron finally walking with us??))

((I'm not sure, but I assumed he was))
"There is a....presence around. Yoma, but not. Like a claymore, but no Claymore should be here, be on guard. Thorn, do not attack, we don't know who this is yet." Clare looked around imperceptibly, hoping to track and identify who ever was in the area.

Aiya's hand was on her sword and ready to draw. She kept her face calm and her body as calm as possible.

"They're here..."
Warren landed in the wooded area, scanning around him, looking for some sign of life, whether it be Yoma, human or Claymore. He shook his head for a moment, becoming slightly dizzy from his mad dash to get to the location.
I need to remember to continue limiting my usage of power... Even with as long as I've spent training to prevent myself from becoming Awakened, I still need to be careful.
The six foot, blonde haired man looked quite out of place in the forest, the light shining through the leaves and reflecting off of trusted 'Roseblood'. He was certain that he was standing out from his surroundings. He did not care, however. A wide grin spread on his face.
"Come out! I know not who or what you are, but hiding will not help you!" he bellowed at the top of his lungs, his copper voice resounding throughout the scene, "Come out and show yourselves! I know you are there, do not make me start looking for you!"
With that statement, he unsheathed his greatsword "Roseblood" from his back and began brandishing it threateningly in front of him.
"Last chance, or I start looking myself."

Aiya heard shouting and tensed She pulled out her sword a little ready for an attack.

((I'm aware, but Warren, although wizened through age, is a bit paranoid and has lost a small portion of his sanity from spending so much time in solitude, hence why he's unable to actually find the group by trying to sense them, and... why he's maniacally trying to force the group's hand instead of simply calmly looking. Also, thank you, I intend to make my stay here enjoyable to everyone))
The giant blonde haired man's grin changed shape into a scowl as he yelled out, "Fine! So be it!"
Swinging "Roseblood" wildly, he began spinning erratically, destroying trees, splitting them in half then again into quarters and disappearing again and again as he repeated the process, searching for his unseen quarry.
"Where are you?! Grah! You won't even respond? You must be Yoma!"
"Hah...Haha! Hahahaha! Even more reason for me to continue the hunt!"

Thorn changes his sword to the pink glow and with out even looking he slashes in the direction of the yelling person, the wind from the pink glow cutting down the trees but stoping right in the strangers face. "with all that noise wasnt very hard to pin point......." He just now realized something about the sword "odd before i changed it to the pink glow i didnt know his location but with it, it seems to have enhanced my hearing or something......" He turns around sword ready to defend himself if the stranger should attack.

Raki slides closer against until he's right against Clare, "Who is that?"
((Oh I forgot to say hi to. But did you bring cookies, we forgot to mention all newbs must bring cookies for us to feed on domokun ))

(("I made you a cookie but I eated it"? >.>))
As the stranger's blade came narrowly close to Warren's scalp, "Roseblood" spun around and caught the sword mid-swing, followed by the gaze of the blonde haired man.
"So, you are not Yoma. I can see this much..." Warren grinned as he looked into the stare of this newcomer,"And you have a magnificent sword, handled very well, I might add. Let's see just how well that is!"
With a forceful shove, Warren threw back the man from their weapon locked parry and brought "Roseblood" to bear, soaring back in at the same time as the recoiling stranger, their blades meeting furiously and at a speed that was uncanny and painful to even watch. Each parry, each maneuver was countered by the other.
"Not... bad..."
Warren's smile reformed as a scowl and symbol similar to those of the ranks of the Claymores appeared on his blade, his eyes turning even brighter silver.
"I think that's enough for now.."
With one swipe, the force of the air from the swing knocked the stranger back several yards then he drove the blade halfway into the soil. His Yoki unleashed a bit of its power as it forced the silence to return to the surroundings.
"Who are you, stranger?" he called out, "You are not Yoma or Awakened, yet you possess great prowess. Give me a name to call you... and call out to your companions. I can feel them... faintly. If you intend to come at me all at once, at least give yourselves the luxury of honor before doing so."
