"He actually found me." She looked over at Amico and their eyes locked. "I Should get going now.." She left the room and made sure to close the door behind her. She walked down the hall feeling confused and lost. She needed to find Bridget! So many thoughts filled her head and she could barely keep them in order.

Sheena only smiled at him as he brought the both of them to a tree. When he had set a black sheet beneath them, she sat down and then opened the basket. She pulled out a few sandwiches and handed them to him, "Here, you do need to keep up your strength," she then pulled out two plates and two cups. She pulled out a small canteen of her special herbal tea and poured it into the cups, it was still warm. Even though she was only preparing lunch, she did it with such grace in her movements and her face held serenity as she did so. Once she filled their plates, she picked at the grapes she put on hers and ate them, "So, what do you plan on training them today?"

Bridget could only smile. She had used the back paths to exit the castle and make her way to the yard. When she reached the housing sight the men just looked down at her and laughed. “What they can’t spare that red haired man again so they sent us a little girl.” they laughed collectively and Bridget felt her fact grow red. “sit down little girly, you’ll only get hurt.” She shook her head and stomped her feet a bit before moving over to the men. She lifted one hand and gave a sharp shove to the man sending him flying back into another.
“Let me show you a thing or two about growing houses.” the men looked at her funny. How could one grow a house? It just didn’t’ seem possible. She rubbed her hands together and glanced around. Wooden planks, even though they were dead, still came from the earth, which meant she could control it. “Fitz, Raz, Sparks, you are on middle duty?.” the fairies saluted her and flew off to take care of the glass. The men just stared at her as if she were insane. She slammed her foot into the ground and took a slow breath, then she began to move. The wood began to move from one spot to another, fallowing her plea.
Things she could not lift, the fairies did for her, like shoving nails in boards and such. The point was that in a manor of minutes she had build an entire house. She sat down and looked at the men with a smug look on her face. “Lady Raylee sent for more earth elementals. You can expect your work is about to get a hell of a lot easier.” She was greeted only by silence.
______________________________________________
Keishiro flanked up as a man waltzed in his room. This wasn’t his bedroom but his war room. He spent most of his time in there just planning. In two years he had become quite the strategist, thanks to Soma doing all t[he paper work. He could do it himself, but he felt that the younger boy was better set to such things. Over the two years he let his hair grow out a bit, this he had pulled tightly behind his head so that it wouldn’t bother his maps and get in his way. He moved his eyes up to look at the man. “You know the drill, this better be damn important.” The man began to stumble and stutter but a sharp look from Kei made him settle down.
“Sir Soma has announced Hokyo’s return. “ Kei’s eyes widened a bit but he laughed. He had always knew. There was no way he could have killed Hokyo so easily. He placed his hand to his neck. Where they even? Hokyo had cut off his head and he had cut off an arm. Either way it was so exciting. He lifted a hand and got ready to dismiss the man before he stopped. “Gather Soma and Yukio. We’re going on a little trip” The man ran out to fallow the orders given to him.
_____________________________________________________
Yukio had retreated to his bedroom, which was the highest tower in the building. He sat in the windowsill, one leg hanging out while the other was bent and his elbow rested on it. His head was hung low and his right hand was quite bloody. But if one looked closer they could tell it was his own blood. He had hit the wall in his room a bit to hard this time. The wall of course gave away but he had to pull his hand out of the wall because the room had been made especially for him and his fits.
When a man came to gather him, he simply fallowed. He didn’t say anything. What he did do was wash his hand off before he left and pull on a pair of gloves so that no one would ask about the blood. He was rather bummed that Soma had not believed him, in fact one could almost say he was heartbroken. Like someone had killed his dog or stolen his favorite toy.
_________________________________________
Raylee left her room after a short cat nap. She felt much better. She would probably leave soon, maybe do some exploring of her own. She had wanted to be free of Yunari and she was. She wanted to be free of duty and she was. All that was left, was to take the trip out of there and what better time to do it? She wanted to go to that island, that place that was said to drive men mad. But she was no man. There were no bags packed, only a hunting knife that she placed in her shoe and her powers. She would walk first, then maybe shadow hop. But for now she was in the best mood she had been in years, even if Hokyo was in control again. She helped him out with her last order though so maybe he wouldn’t be under too much.
The main idea was to leave before he realized how much work he had to do.

Wulf left his post after gathering a small group of guards and posting them where he'd been. He'd given them specific instructions to follow to keep up this level of organization, and so far, it was working. Re-entering the castle, he wandered for a bit and saw the dark-haired girl that had accompanied the one with the fairies. She seemed lost in such a big place, and he smirked. Can't really blame 'er. Even I get lost 'ere! He approached Renee, making his presence known so as not to scare her. "Hey, need tah find somethin'?" he asked, sounding sincerely helpful.

Alastor finally stood up after sitting there for a while. He brushed himself off and looked towards the crater he had made with a wince. He shook his head then looked towards the castle walls. He folded his arms in front of his chest as he looked up.
"It's....small."He mused.
Glysta laughed,"Well, of course they're not going to be as big as the ones back home. We had nothing BUT castles for the most part."
Alastor sighed,"I suppose you're right. I'm hungry. Maybe i can teleport myself a little more accurately this time and find something to eat."
Glysta started to protest but it was too late. Energy once again began to swirl around Alastor as he closed his eyes. The ground shook a bit around him and he vanished with a bang. He reappeared with another loud bang inside of.....a broom closet? Alastor groaned and fumbled with the door leading out. He practically crashed into a hallway with a broom and mop following close afterwards.
He looked up and down the hall and blinked,"Am I in the castle...?"

Raylee practically jumped out of her skin when a man fell out of the broom closet. She placed her hand on her heart and jumped back as she tried to regain her composure. It was not often the great "queen" was startled out of her wits. The man didn't seem to notice her so she relaxed and tilted her head as he spoke. She placed a hand on her hip and offered a small chuckle to announce her presence. "Yes you are in the castle, though why you are in Bridget's broom closet is beyond me.... she'd have a fit if she saw this mess..."
She moved around and bent over a bit to get a better look at the man. He was different, held a different aura and even well over all feel. She had seen many people before in her life time this one bought the cake for sure. "you're not from around here." the statement was more for her own observation than anything. She lowered her hand and offered it to the male to help him stand.
"Welcome to the red kingdom." Was it strange that she didn't ask him how he managed to get in there while she was standing outside it. In fact she wasn't even going to pay mind to it. All the weird abilities people had these days, she didn't want to know.

He jumped a bit when hearing the woman talk then spun around. he stammered a bit then looked all around at the things he had knocked over. He started picking things up and putting them away quickly while stammering apologies. He swallowed and then looked at her then looked all around.
"The Red Kingdom? Why is it called that?" He said while giving her a questioning look.
He then straightened up and offered her a smile,"No, I'm not from around here. My name is Alastor. What's your name?"
Glysta hovered around his head humming a bit. He stopped for a moment to merely say,"and I'm Glysta." Afterwards, she started floating around while humming again.

Raylee ran her hand through her hair and then glanced around. "Two years ago it was simply a group of people who called themselves the Red Rebels. Later on we built this castle and it kind of just stuck with us. As for my name, I am Raylee, former runner of this place." Her eyes went up to the small creature that floated around the man's head. She tilted her head to the side and frowned "You know, you kind of look like one of the little faeries that Bridget hangs around with... but different, you talk."
She shook her head and then gave a little laugh and apologized for her rudeness. She was not normally this nice but because she had been set free of all her problems, well she was in a good mood. "What can i do to help you with?"

Glysta couldn't help but giggle,"Fairy? They exist? I'm a sprite. big difference. According to the tales, fairies are just bells with wings that glow really bright. Fairies exist on this world?"
Alastor heaved a heavy sigh and looked at Raylee with a sort of lost look,"I was sent here by sages to seek training in my abilities. I....am not of this world. The sages merely said that this planet contained powers that could help me. Maybe....you can help me?"
He gave her a hopeful smile and his eyes seemed to glow a little as he looked at her. Glysta rolled her eyes.....but nobody could see this since she just appeared to be a small glowing ball of white light.

“Well a lot of things exist here, Fairies, ghosts, goblins, giants, Elves, hell if I looked hard enough I could probably see a unicorn or something.” She shook her head and glanced out the window. They had just about everything. But what the sprite had said was kind of true. Those fairies of Bridget’s couldn’t talk, they just chimed and such. She let out another sigh as she heard him speak though. She had been on her way out, away from responsibilities but here was a person trying to give her another one. She gave a slow nod and turned away from him. “Explain to me what you can do and I will find you a suitable trainer. I might be able to help but I’d a bit…different from the others”

Soma had fought with himself the entire night and he looked worse for ware, he stood when he was asked to see Kei. His shirt being tucked in as he followed the normal man, he should’ve known this was coming. He wasn’t sure who was worse with this information, Kei or Yukio. Both of them wanted Hokyo dead and it left little room for error. It wasn’t that Soma had no passion to kill the red haired man, but he had been living with his own father’s death for so long that he simply could not indulge himself into a fantasy world where he could kill the man.
Things had to be done, people had to grow up. He hadn’t realized that he was just outside of Kei’s war room and entered, to stand with his hands behind his back and his face a bit titled up, as he was in the room of his lord and he had to treat him as such.

Alastor just stared at her in awe as she spoke. so many mythological creatures he had only heard about in fairy tales....all here! His mind was a swirl of thoughts. He shook his head and looked away while blushing a bit. He was staring and that was incredibly rude. He toed the ground a little bit and took a deep breath.
"Well....it's hard to explain. I have control over time....sort of. It's out of control and I was sent here to harness it. My planet is in danger from being attacked by demons so I need to hurry up and learn how to control my powers before it's too late. So...that's why I'm here." He said while slowly looking up to face her again.
Glysta floated away while Alastor spoke to Raylee. She continued humming as she began to float through the halls of the castle. Perhaps, she could learn its secrets. Then maybe she could get the two of them off this rock and back home...

Kaine woke up as usual, screaming about some unseen nightmare and writhing in unfelt pain. After gasping a few times, shaking the grogginess from his head, he surveyed his surroundings. He was certainly no longer in his makeshift tent- no, these brick walls and barred doors spelled only one thing in his mind. Jail... I'm back in the Capital. He frowned, apparently they had abducted him in his sleep, or otherwise knocked him unconscious. While he couldn't remember what had happened previous to his arrival in jail, up til about... When? What was the last thing he remembered? That would be... Going to bed, in my tent, he answered himself, nodding.
Which meant he had been taken in his sleep, or hit over the head hard enough to not wake up til now. Whatever the case, he couldn't stay here too long... He'd done a little too much for them to just lock him up. As soon as they finished his 'trial', he was done for. Which wouldn't last the morning, and that meant he had all of maybe two hours to escape. And while blasting a hole through the wall and fleeing through the prison, starting riots of all sorts and general jailbreak havoc, it didn't serve his purpose as well as planning would. So, this would be a thinking game...
He put a hand on the nearest wall. With a simple moment of concentration, he found the walls to be about a foot of solid concrete... Piece of cake. The bars, three inches around each of steel, wouldn't be as easily broken. If the issue was stealth, however, the bars would attract much less attention than shattering concrete... Although, he couldn't tell if he was in a cell by a wall, or in the middle of the prison complex. If it were the latter, escape would be made much more difficult... He decided to play it safe, and go with stealth for now.
Placing his hands on the prison bars, he grunted a bit as he pushed apart. Aided by very focused vibrations all along the steel bars, they bent rather easily. And with very little noise, that was good. He looked up and down the halls; nothing. Deciding to use a few precious moments, he un-did the damage, and bent the bars back into place. Perhaps that would serve to confuse the guards for at least a few moments, and allow his escape to go a little smoother.

Hokyo had been resting in his room with guards outside of his door and he felt a little comfortable it had been so long since he had been offered so little when he was on the island of Amad. Amico had ventured off and he was alright with that, lying on his bed he crossed his arm over his eyes and looked out of one eye towards the curtain covered spread of the ceiling. He hated how much he was already being forced into. He had not planned on becoming the ruling word of this Kingdom, he had left that to Yune, but she of course did not survive.
He closed his eyes and turned on his side, bring his legs up to his upper body he rested his head on his open hands. He was beginning to drift off from the waking realm, when suddenly he felt a soft hand slide between his chest and stomach. Looking he could see the flickering image of a hand and a smile spread across his face. “Lore, what are you doing? Shin will find out about this.” He said calm as the arm around his body formed solid and he felt the rest of a soft body press against his back. “Just shush Falo, I needed to feel you one last time, Shin is being held off by Lagn and Wento, but he wants you, he refuses that you bound yourself to a mortal life instead of taking revenge against you.” The woman spoke to him and her voice filled the room as though it was in every corner, like a whisper that spread into a shouting echo.
“Shin has always been a child when it comes to such matters, he could never understand why I was put on the throne instead of him.” Hokyo said calmly his voice not changing which he could feel Lore tighten her grip on his stomach. She could feel it as well; Hokyo was taking over the man who had once been the god Falo and the man that made the Red Rebels, Sinnel. In the end there would only be the man Hokyo, it was his curse to be a mortal that even if he remembered their memories he would never be the men he was. “Falo…do you still love me?” Lore asked which shocked Hokyo in a small manner, when he had been Falo, Lore had always been a woman of pride and one that had only found comfort in his arms. Though for her to confuse such a manner in love it was hard to understand. He reached down and interlaced his hand with hers and turned to look at her. Her dark brown hair flowed across the bed like the soil, deep blue eyes which melted a mortal mans soul. Such red lips which the roses which grew in the garden could not compare.
“Falo will always love you.” Hokyo found himself saying, he had referred to Falo as another person, not himself. He even found that odd and Lore looked away from him when he had said it. She placed a hand on his chest and looked as though she was looking through him. “Such a violent live you have lived and will continue to live, such colors of emotions you hold inside in order to maintain your former selves, a storm which can crush any force with a smile.” She said softly to him and he closed his eyes listening, she was not speaking about Falo, she was speaking about him. “I can see why you love them, these mortals they have such a bizarre manner of blazing until they can not even stand, they are more stubborn then I recall making them. They would fight a god even knowing it would be their doom.” She continued to speak and Hokyo could feel the weight on the bed begin to lift, she was being pulled back into the heaven realm. He opened his eyes to stare at those blue eyes one last time.
Lore smiled in such a manner that he could’ve sworn that she was teasing him, her ghost like appearance pushed him onto his back as she hovered over him, only her upper body was still there, even her arms were beginning to vanish. Hokyo looked up at her and she simply bent down and kissed him, her body continuing to vanish until she was gone. He laid there in silence, his eyes starring at the space that his sister once remained. He chuckled a little, she wasn’t his true sister anymore, he was Hokyo Cumen no longer the god Falo. Sitting up quickly he slipped on his boots and raced towards the door, slamming it open. Taking the guards off guard, they looked at him oddly and he smirked at them. “Inform anyone you find that we are going to war.” He remarked smoothly which made the guard look at him oddly for a few seconds, before Hokyo’s stare left him to run off in a random direction, followed by the second guard.
Hokyo smirked as he ran his hand through his hair and pulled it tightly back into a pony-tail. He was heading towards the throne room, he doubted it would take long for him to be surrounded by the people that matter, and he was not going to war with the Capital. He would have to inform them, but this was war. As he approached the throne room, he walked slowly up to the seat and took his seat in a rather odd fashion, his legs crossed and one arm rested on its elbow to support his head with his fist. He could already hear the servants mumble.

Singo watched as the island stopped only about twenty miles off the coast, they were still far off from either of their points of attack, but this would work rather well. His hand raised and suddenly a large pillar appeared on the island, so tall that it pierced the clouds in the sky, its dark shape casting a shadow across the Sea and the rest of the land that it could touch. Within a few seconds each level of the pillar began to glow from millions of lights which lit the inner walls. Singo snapped his fingers and the border of magic which held back the power of all those that were on the island of Amad was released. At first it was slow like a mist which eased itself out into the sea, but in a sudden there was a flow of power and the rest was pushed in all directions.
Singo smirked as he added his own power into the mixture of other soldiers which were inside of the pillar and he smirked. “Fear attack the village that blocks our view of the land of which we will soon control, do not spare a single human.” He said as he turned walking back towards the pillar, he had leftit up to Fear to make the first attack, not because he wanted to test the shadow man’s power, but because he wanted their enemy to understand that they were going to destroy them. The power they had released would spread across the land towards the two Kingdoms leaving no room for mistake that they held a chance against the demons and gods which resided with Shin.
