A royal wedding, and a significant one at that. Briefly, the halfling wondered if her King were going to send the couple a gift, and what would it be? What was she going to do? " You know," Eliza started out looking back at her date, " It didn't start brilliant, but - at least the end of the date was semi-saved, right?" The angel felt that even if that time in that cave was awful, it was still significant in its own way.
Feeling the kiss on her cheek, Eliza blinked, as he was already heading for the door. Smiling suddenly, the blonde waved slightly, " Yeah, later!" Watching him leave, the blonde then leaned back against the cushioned chair - actually glad that it was a kiss to the cheek, instead of what guys sometimes assume would be the mouth.
Laughing lightly, Eliza would give Vincent merits, he was certainly cute in his own.
Drinking what was left in the wine-glass, which wasn't very much, and the fact that it was a slim glass, she sat it down. The halfling wasn't even really buzz, over all the excitement for the wedding date of the two was on her thoughts. Standing up from the table, Eliza left the resturant - also taking the wine bottle with her.
It be a waste of money to simply leave it there anyway.
Now what to get the two? Weapons would more then likely be out. Same for jewelry, money doesn't seem very creative, 'mythical' creatures- ' You know, it's better not to go through the list, Eliza.' It be more then easier to simply ask Scarlet and Drako. Welll that is if she get's a, ' don't care' for a answer. Which could very well be likely, and then that wouldn't really get her know wheres. Eh, then again she could always push for answer.
However, Eliza suppose that can wait. It was getting late afterall and those two, rather three, having to deal with those riots were probably a huge head-ache enough. So, yes, she shall pester Scarlet later. But right now, what's a little shopping?
It was a hour or two after shopping , that Eliza decided that it was probably time to head back.

DAY 1: Pole Arms and tactics.
I wake to the sound of laughter in my room. I look up from my mattress to see a group of young girls, one being Lin. "Geroff me!" I yell as one jumps on me noticing I was awake. "I have a.... Girlfriend!" I guess you could call it that. They giggle more, and then the master comes in. "You are not pleasing me Wolfgang, it is not for you to woo the girls! Right?" He nods his head. They all get up in a line, and I do as well, pulling on my robe, and then getting next to Lin. She smiles and I glare.
"You will all come with the other students to class, and then, you get to spend time with me afterwards. Now, go. Oh, and also, Lin, Vincent, do not engage in those activities, for it is not permitted!" I gape at him. I had a girlfriend! He smiles as he leaves. Why was I the blunt of these misguided jokes? We follow him to the room, and then file in after the others. The burly man in front looks up from his work, and then gets up. Hopefully to tell us to eat. I was starving!
"You will learn how to do pole arms today." I groan, and they all look at me. I shut up. I had already knew this stuff! I wanted to learn Martial Arts. He shakes his head at me. "Would you like to explain that groan, um..." He looks at the board in his hands, and then at me. "Mr. Wolfgang?" I just call Oblivion, from my room, to my hand. He lets his eyes deepen. "You think you know it all?"
"No, not all, but almost all. Learned from Grand Master Gorringhammer." He laughs. "And that is funny how?" He lets out more laughs, and the others look at each other. I nudge Lin. "What is this guys problem?" She replies with a 'I dunno' and she just keeps staring at him. "He was a very well respected Poile Arms maker and teacher."
"No no, I can't believe you, scrawny and little as you are, was taught be a man. Go home boy, and think up a different story!" I gape at him as I did Master Horin. "I am not going to let you speak of that!" I get up, an angry look on my face. I let Oblivion swing about me as if I was Master Gorringhammer. His eyes bulge. I come down close to his neck, when I was almost over twenty feet from where he was. He backs up a little. "That proves not to me." I then proceed to show him a certain dance, the Dance of Gorring, as it is called. He backs up just a bit more. "You, are just a youngling! Not over thirty!" I shake my head.
"I am over a hundred now." He doubles over. "I was a Kitsune before being an angel, and from being an Angel, I became a Nothing. Human appearances can be deceiving. I feel more the teacher then you now." He looks at me. "I may look weak, but ask any who have fought, or sparred, with me, they will tell you otherwise." He looks at me as he gets back up. "Believe me or not, you are not to misjudge my appearance again." I told him! Mr. Burly sure would have to respect that! I then feel a rap on my head as a hawthorn staff connects with the back of my skull. "Ow ow ow ow" I turn, Master Horin was standing with an angry and not amused kind of look.
"You are not to tell your teachers what or what not to do. Your little display there was informative, and not in the least bad, but the end was bad." I look around, no one else seemed to agree from the low boos. He raps his staff on the ground sharply to get their attention back. "You are to clean when dinner comes, and no meal for you, just bread and water in your room!" I sigh. "As for your training, you will wait in class, and do your work, and then spar you will with Lin, for she has asked, and you have agreed." I sit back in my seat, Oblivion propped up next to me. The class goes onward!

Tis day two, and did she hear any random riots going on in the outside world? None what's so ever. Eliza smiled before plopping back onto the comfortable white bed. While she herself didn't make it out of the city last night, the blonde decided to just stay in the Inn over night. Perhaps a little irresponsible, but it was better then traveling when it was late into the night back to camp just to see whatever happened to the men. That and for curiousity sake, but Vincent didnt make that big deal out of it, so Eliza figure that they were be up to their own devices doing whatever.
However, she was curious, and the halfling did want to know about the commanded army. Perhaps that's what she could do today. That, and pester Scarlet a little about a possible gift. Considering that, she still didnt know what to give the two.
About two hours later, Eliza left the inn, clean, shower, new clothes, and not to mention the things she bought yesterday nicely packed into the magical designed enhance small bookbag that could be changed into a purse if wanted. A gift one could say. A very, useful gift that seems like it can fit pretty much anything in there, and yet weigh not much.
As she headed out from the city earlier that day, Eliza took cared of pretty much everything she needed to. " Alright Eliza, Let's see..." Just as she made her decision to see if she can make her way back where the army last was, a portal appeared infront of her.
Blinking, at the sudden sight, and the magical appearance of the portal, Eliza paused in mid-step. " Right," She muttered to herself, before shaking her head and started to step away from the portal. Only to feel the gust of wind pushing her towards the portal. With a sigh, Eliza looked up at the sky, adjusting her book-bag, " Okay-Okay, I understand. No, right?"
Looking back at the portal, without any more delay the halfling walked into the portal, shifting her bookbag and keeping a good hold on it. Well, surprises and adventures, often comes from curiosity. Aside from that little push and non-verbal echo of direction, curiosity really was a constant that the blonde never really loses.

I sit there. This was the most boring class, EVER! I get up and head to the restroom, and stopping. I smile. I could do that.... Hee hee hee. I make a portal of Nothing and walk through it. Seeing Eliza, I make a portal by her, and then, while she steps away, I summon a strong gust of wind. And as she steps through the portal, I make one to the exact place she would end up, in the hallway of the Martial Arts Dojo. I come around a corner, and see her. I smile dubiously. "Hey, Eliza, glad you could come!"

" Ah. So this is where the rabbit hole leads too," The angel stated outloud to herself, curiously looking over the place. Let's see, a dojo perhaps? Maybe she shouldn't step into random portals, but it didn't distinctingly feel evil, neither did her intuition tell her otherwise. Pushing back a strand of her blonde hair, she heard Vincent's voice as she turned around slightly to face him, slightly grinning at her next words, " I felt a rather pushy wind edging me this way."

I look at her. New clothes, that would end well, really well. "Oh, um, you may want to get into some old clothes, before you are seen, so you can keep your new ones." I laugh. "And well, I did have a certain, possible, partake in your being here. And why? Because I can't stand being away from you, and I want for once and for all to stop having these jokes, and these girls, to stop coming to me!" I throw my hands up. "And also, it is a learning opportunity for you..."

" Ah. Vincent Wolfgang, popular with the ladies. The truth comes out.", She teased, not seeming to worry about the clothing thing. " And, Im quite sure you're perfectly suitable to handle direct advances from other women." Was she jealous? No. Not really, she actually found it a little amusing that he was really bothered by this. " So, My clothes?" Eliza made it a question, idly tugging at the rim of the blue shirt, " And these learning opportunities? You sure you just weren't bored?" Not that she was complaining, she just wasnt expecting to see him so soon.

"Haha, I would hope you could get a robe, such as me. Since, I was also hoping you could be admitted to it, seeing as I do have some pull around here." I rub the back of my neck. I then hug her. "I did miss you though. It is tough being lovestruck." I let go, and then look her down. You will stay here and learn with me, no?"

" To be honest, I dont believe that robe would be very flattering on me." Eliza went for the honest approach, seeing that she really truly believed that, only to be glomped. Blinking a few times at the quick movement, Eliza leaned back some looking up at him curiously, " I dont think they would want a angel wandering around in their mist, do you?"

I look at her. "Robe really would make you look dull... Much like Lin. But, I am sure they would not mind. I mean, beings from all over the universe come here, they just don't learn Nothing's Demise. Only Nothings can learn that. And besides, they would have to deal with me if they said no, that is, if you want to stay and learn with me?"

She lifted a brow, " Lin?" She questioned hearing the name. Looking at her own clothes, she probably would stand out a. .. little, " I wouldn't mind staying, and learning something new is something I am always up for, but -for Scarlet and Drako. . To be honest," Was that footsteps she heard?

"Lin is my sparring partner, and a pesky girl who keeps trying to woo me." I stare out at the window. "And, there are plenty of places here in Oblivion to find a gift. I mean, just ask me if you want and when we have a break, we shall go." I then hear footsteps, and I grab Eliza, and when I see who it is, I dodge my head. "That is Lin, unless you want to meet her, just stay low."

" But, I don't want my gift to be something. . that they're going to more likely receive. Selfish I know it sounds, but - weaponry, is out of the picture. And then theirs jewelry, if you own a throne, and getting married to another lord, why would you need that? Besides Im sure they're going to be littered with that. Perhaps. . something more personal- I-" Howeveer she didn't get to finish as Vincent tugged her into a more hiding place, not that it really was much of one. " Erm. . Vincent.."

Her cheeks were slightly heated, but then the blonde shook her head, and stepped away from him. Honestly. " It's like we're sneaking around, like two teenagers or something, afraid to get caught," Pausing slightly, Eliza then flashed him something of a grin, " Well, in a way, we are sneaking around and do not want to get caught at the second."
