Lyra rocked backwards from the force of yet another blast that day.
"What the bloody HELL is going on today?? Isn't anyone competant at their JOB?! Which for most of the people here is guarding! For the love of LYCRA!" She continued ranting in that fashion for a few more seconds until she calmed down and sent orders at the two guards that Shavas had played with to go find out what this new explosion was.
'Oh shade...what now? Hasn't enough happened today??' Tsuki thought to herself. She sighed, her body was slowly recuperrating from the battle that she'd had with her daughter but it was slow going. Her powers had been augmented by her long stay in the shadowy underworld and she had gained new knowledge of her powers in her fifteen year absence.
"Shavas, you up to a fight? It'll be just like old times...you, me, a slew of other people, and enemies. Though judging by what the shadows whisper to me, there is but one or two enemies to deal with this time...
((Tolly gets an uber character, Auren gets an uber character, so I want an uber character...thusly I shall make Tsuki have gained some new fun powers from being dead for 15 years. &_&))

((OOC: OMG! Spoof! Your sloganizer said " I want Spoof and I want it now" on the previous page and now it says "Feel it - Spoof!" rofl But hey, you need to revive Mizu soon, Spoof neutral ))
Junai looked around the room, and at the arrival of the people he had announced. He was quite confused as to what was going on, so he planned on just listening for now. Junai looked around for a seat to take and while he found one, near him, he walked slowly to it and sat down with a proper poise.

(Well. I want an uber character too. I sall place Shavas on a pedestal then)
Shavas reeled with the force of yet another explosion, and glared at the polished stone beneath her feet. "damn, it really isn't ever quiet around here is it?"
She grinned, "Well, I suppose I have enough time to put down another attack, but I must admit I'm rather surprised that another has decided to attack on the same day as us. They're going to be overshadowed big time." She winked at the others, "No offense meant."
With a wary look at Tsuki, Shavas backed away towards the stairs, "I think I'll take a safer way down to the battle, Shadow teleporting has never been my thing as you know all to well."
The captain of the guard...Junai was his name, looked vaguely familiar. He reminded her of Mizu... Mizu...
Her expression slackened, The trio had passed into the afterlife all in the same day, Even know haunting memories of the snarled, and shredded corpses of her friends and companions littering the floor of Laos's immense cavern. A crystal tear flowed down her cheek, and splashed to the floor. Angrily she wiped her eyes, and whirled to face the richly decorated staircase.

((Speaking of Mizu...you need to have Laos summon her from the dead and put her to some use so she can be alive again. If under a demon tyrant's control...and Fuzzy needs to post! She's important...>_>))
"Mah...Shavas, I miss Mizu. It's just not the same without her..."
Tsuki got an evil grin on her face and made as if to grab Shavas but another explosion threw her off balance and she landed on the floor instead.
Lyra shook her head in wonder at the antics of the two mages and said, "I appreciate the effort on your part, but we will all travel there as a group. That means your missing party members need to get here first...I believe they are Vermillion and Nadira, am I correct?"
((My new rule goes into effect now...it's in one of the threads on the main page for reference.))

It came into Junai's mind that he should probably be asking how he can be of service to everyone, instead of just sitting there. As head of the Royal Gurad, he cannot slack off. So he sat up and walked over to Lyra, to ask, "My Lady...I would like to know how I, and my troop of the Royal Guard, can be of service to you."

Lyra sighed, this was becoming irritating. "As I said before, send some men out to find out what is going on with those explosions. I want the person responsible captured and detained. He is not to be harmed...overly much but if he resists feel free to use obscene amounts of force. I would like you to stay with us in case I have need of you or your troops later. Though I don't doubt it as this is most probably another attack..."
Lyra sighed, she needed a vacation from this...

Shavas danced away from Tsuki, a suspicious gleam in her golden eyes.
She backed up against the wall so the tricky shadowmage could'nt come up from behind, and then turned to face the empress, holding her eyes with her gaze.
" Empress Lyra, there are only one, maybe two men down their causing this rucus. and their shaking the entire palace, I have no doubt that even if you sent your entire army down into the fray, they'd all be dead within seconds. No, you must stay up here along with the queen of Pearl, Ayame, and Rai. Nadira and Junai will stay up here to protect you just in case. Me, Ankhe, Tsuki, and Lord Vermillion will put a stop to this."
Her mouth was set in a grim line, and her eyes held no trace of playfullness as she delivered the speech, her tiny hands were clenched into angry fists, Shavas was used to being obeyed.
"When This is all over, I would like it if we could go to the dark mage tower. I can remove the spell that hides it and mayhap we'll find a spell to reverse this mess, and give us a chance, even if me and Tsuki will be gone.
(Spoof we must figure out how to keep the others out, Elicion Pyte, and Khui I just realized I don't know where you two are, so if you don't mind we can just pretend your with us, and Seamus can be lurking since he's good at that.)
Shavas motioned towards Nefen, "I'm afraid I don't know your name. But if you would be so kind as to stay here with the others since we don't have time to guage your fighting abilities. Or magical ones for that matter."
The young man lurking off to the shadows stood motionless, and seemed to present no harm, so she payed him no mind.

Lyra clenched her fist at the commanding tone Shavas had taken. This was her domain dammit...her palace.
"I thank you for your advice my dear, but you must remember that I am the one who controls this palace. I must concede however that you have a point. Though I resent the thought that someone thinks I need protection...I will be coming with you on this. These attacks are beginning to irritate me and I want whomever is doing the attacking to know it. Intimately."
Lyra had a rather creepy gleam in her eyes...she reached into her sleeve and pulled out a wicked looking dagger.
She looked at Junai and said, "Keep watch of this corridor. If anyone tries to follow, detain them."
Lyra turned to Shavas again, "As I said, I will be coming with you. This person is going to regret his attempted invasion..."
As she was speaking, she was undoing the belt of her ceremonial robes. They slid off her shoulders to reveal her Houkan battle uniform underneath.

Vermillion pulled Nadira to a halt as they neared the end of the corridor. "Alright were here, my arms about to fall off, and whoa..."
Vermillion watched Lyra disrobe, and raised a eyebrow remaining silent. He moved out of the way finally speaking; "Shavas, I will not be joining you below, i will remain here in support should you require reinforcement, however you can take another in my stead."
Vermillion offered no other explanation.

((sorry, I've been gone for a while, end of term has kept me busy. Luckily, I'm not all that important here...))
Kanashi watched from the doorway of the throne room as the others spoke of intrusions, lost comrades, and basic politics. Although he hadn't the slightest idea of what they were talking about, he listened intently anyway. Being only 17 and having only known the inside of a barracks since he was six didn't help his knowledge of what had actually happened in the outside world.
Kanashi stepped forward as the others prepared for battle. Being left out of any important battle after 10 years of extensive training made his skin crawl. But he wasn't about to argue, at least not in a time of war.

(My dad restarted the cpu and I lost my entire old post darn!)
"Very well your highness." Silently she cursed herself, Shavas should have known the empress of battle-ready Houka would be a spitfire.
She watched with emotionless detatchment as the Queen stripped down to the gleaming, rather wicked looking Houkan battle apparal. She glared pointedly at Junai, "If someone comes down this corrider it means we're all dead, and for gods sake you better step back and let Vermillion take care of it."
"Shall we be off then, or are you going to wait until this place falls down around our ears? Either way is good for me although I'd like to be done as fast as possible so I can check the scrolls in the dark mage tower. I hid it with a veil before I left last, and there may be away to reverse all Laos has done.
(never fear Tolly, I shall reply for Nadira tonight as well asap)

"What's going on downstairs? Not another attack...?"
One look at the solemn, battle ready group before her confirmed her suspicion. Queen Marta was being awfully quiet, and standing off to the side Nadira would have expected her to jump right in and insist on healing the poor men who were probably lying in pieces on the main floor.
She aimed a questioning look at Vermillion after his declaration, but otherwise paid no heed to his surprising declaration.
Shavas was obviously taking charge on this expadition, and the queen didn't seem to happy, but to be honest Nadira was betting on the Queen. Shavas may be extremely powerful, and obviously knew what she was talking about, but she seemed the type to deal out orders and then fade into the background.
(I just realized I typed the same opening for Shavas, I must change that immediatly.)

Vermillion summoned another text and began to read it with some fevor. Leaving it to float open mid air he summoned another text hoping to cross reference something, but more and more books began to appear. A few disappeared once he doublechecked, something nabbed his attention and he wasn't botheirng to hide it descretly.
"You highness..." vermillion looked up from his many floating pages, a view path opening in the books, "Do take care, and good luck on getting your answers."

((yeah Marta has been standing there quitely because ive been working my a** off trying to pay my bills))
Marta had a look of pain on her face as she stood there she wanted to help but she was only good on a fighters level and she could feel so much pain down in the main hall that it made her head hurt her eyes glanced over at Lord Vermillion just as he arived then she looked over at lyra and a small smile came across her face.
((sorry its the best i can do))

(don't feel so bad, I get to worry about all that, and to ice the cake I half to make a life choice. Do I move to Arizona to take a good job there, or do I rest my faith in where i'm currently established?)
Vermillion's gaze flickered to Marta briefly before being buried back in his books, and the small mumbling began all over again as he searched for some answers to a unheard question.
