Alpha raised his eyebrow "A summon thats actually a mercenary.... clever idea I suppose but what could he possibly need the money for since he can't exactly just walk into a shop" he pondered getting himself a bag of crisps from the cupboard. "Some of those creatures are better known than others. In fact demons had similar creatures at one point that could be summoned but over time the lot of them were killed. Your summons aren't anything that special in comparison to some of the demons that used to float about"
Hebal nodded happily "Sure but first she will get the summon at her home temple which isn't apparently that strong a one. Or rather she's more known for supporting people than killing. Perhaps the viera and the happy elves should meet for a big party as viera still like to prance and dance about in the forest when not working still" she laughed.

Satoshi shrugged "Well I don't know why the summon asks for gil when summoned before doing anything. Maybe he's just greedy or collects shiny things" she suggested reaching over and petting Cid. "I'm also guessing that not just anyone can summon an elven god from nowhere as they aren't exactly known for making themselves seen. I'm also guessing the dwarves left the forests alone more when they developed tools to make things out of stone"
Hayate paused thinking for a moment "Actually an elven god was summoned during the demon wars as a last resort when Yithra almost fell to demon control but that was the first time in over 18000 years for only a select few get the opportunity to perform something like that. There were some pretty big demons back then but I wouldn't go as far as to say they were on par with summons" he recalled.

Gil chuckled "Well maybe Aeon's have their own world and currency is useful for something or other to them" he said watching Cid shuffle closer to Satoshi for a petting but keeping an eye out for Terrato and Enkidu "Well nice to know your gods keep an eye on you when you are in serious trouble" he said.
Zadina nodded "I doubt they are as individuals but remember we've already had to fight Shiva before" he said "Mind you I think I remember one of the temple's priestesses telling me that an Aeon's strength is linked to the summoner so maybe uncle Elorin could summon an even better Shiva than the one we encountered" he suggested.
Oassu chuckled "Well our summons are still around unlike those old demon gods you go on about Alpha, it's not a competition mind though some summons are really nice, like little carbuncle apparently it brings good fortune if you encounter him" he said

Alpha grunted "Just because you've never seen em it doesn't mean they can't still exist. But I wasn't referring to demon gods in this case. I was talking about demons big enough to hold the city of Agralia upon its back and other strong things like that" he explained holding back a yawn.
Hebal let out a low whistle as she tried grooming her ears "Oooh a demon god is impressive. What did it look like and who summoned it?" she curiously asked while she watched Cid's behaviour. "Maybe your right about that one so your dad could pull a way better shiva than Neliel. Though I dunno how one could boost their aeon strength very high since you don't summon that often"

Felina smiled returning from her room with a bigger than usual bag slung over her shoulder "Yeah carbuncle was a cute little summon and I liked the phoenix king dad showed me when I was little. Never thought a phoenix would have so many coloured feathers" she agreed patting Cid on the nose "Well I'm ready to go now"
Satoshi smirked "Would be nice to think something that high and mighty would stick up for us ninja but thats highly unlikely since we follow no religion or anything. Though wouldn't it be classified as abuse to build a big city on the back of a big demon? Plus may I add theres more to life than size if you know what your doing in a battle right?"
Hayate paused and gave Felina a slight nod "It was Elorin who summoned it, fortunately his sick father managed to teach the skill to him before passing away shortly before the war. Anyway he summoned Zoltphach the thundergod, sort of a big blue green yellow dragon with a long mane about 6 or 7 times the size of this airship" he described.

Oassu nodded "So I see but is it time to go now?" he asked "Though we'd have a little more time before the flight" he said as Jenna stepped smugly out of the basement with a small bag of clothes "Well me and Boco are ready to go whenever glad to have gotten everything sorted" she said.
Gil nodded "Precisely there was a fairytale in my village of a man who revived his loved one by defeating several giant colossi one after the other some as big as cities, every opponent can have a weak point, a bigger monster just means a bigger weak point" he chuckled
Zadina giggled "Well Uncle Ellie certainly is powerful lets hope we don't need to bother the Elven gods for another thousand millenia again like that" he said with a slight yawn "And I imagine it's strength is derived from spiritual strength Miss Hebal but I imagine Miss Amane would know better than me about it" he said

Hebal nodded pulling a speck of dust from her ear "yeah and more than me too as I'm not really a magic expert myself despite my odd ability. Though remind me not to make Elorin really mad if he can do impressive stuff like that. Don't want one of those coming after me for accidentally stealing his cookies" she gasped bouncing around in her seat.
Alpha shrugged "Maybe so but it often takes more effort to bring them down and when they can stomp on you things can be difficult. I think I heared that fairytale once, didn't end very well from what I recall cause it was part of some shifty deal" he pondered vaguely remembering a bard going on about it.
Seph laughed emerging from the stables "Ahh but you see Alpha it's the little ones you've got to look out for. At least with the big ones what you see is usually what you get when it comes to a fight" she stated placing herself down on the kitchen bench seeing all seats were taken. "If a little demon bites you, it's better not keep it to yourself"

Felina paused glancing at the clock "We do have a little bit of time but bear in mind that we need to find our airship and it's still pretty crowded outside" she pointed out picking up Cid. "But don't worry Hebal, my dad doesn't especially like cookies to want to send a god as scary looking as that one after you. It's the pinapples and peaches you've got to keep away from" she joked.
Hayate snickered "Yep but not just that, he would be very mad like that if all the shiny things were to go missing in his palace be it a pile of treasure or a piece of tin foil" he added following Felina's gaze to the clock "Give it ten minutes and we'll go airship hunting. Its nicer and warmer here than in the aerodrome"
Satoshi shrugged "I dunno. I've never heared that fairytale so dunno how it ended but it sounds like it could be a nice one" she guessed giving Seph a wave "I'm sure if you know what your doing and with the right equipment the big demons are no bother but what do you mean with the little ones? Are many of them poisonous or something?" she asked a bit confused.

Oassu smiled "Besides if he didn't summon him when Agralia was attacking I doubt it's something he can simply do like that besides you wouldn't steal his food Hebal your too nice for stuff like that but ok we'll head off soon for the airship, you got everything you'll need?" he asked Hayate and Felina
Zadina gasped "Don't you do something like that Miss Hebal that would be really mean for poor Uncle Elorin and he might not like you" he scolded Hebal "Otherwise I'm sure if you are nice and respectful he'll appreciate it" he said sleepily watching as Itaka and Barbaros emerged.
"Are you ready to go Jenna?" Barbaros asked "Alpha we'll need to open the cargo hatch to get my bike out but then we can hit the sky and get back home" he sighed happily "Been fun seeing you all was nice travelling with you Gil" he said waving to the others.
Gil shuffled "It might not end well but he does revive his loved one at the end, it's not really important but how long do we have before our flight leaves?" he asked before waving to Barbaros "Farewell Barbaros and Jenna maybe we'll meet again some time" he said

Seph smiled getting up from her chair to give both Jenna ans Barbaros a hand shake "Well take care of yourselves. Chances are we'll cross paths again and most likely sooner than I would expect" she told them since she had no idea what Itaka had mentioned "Just don't hand about and miss your flight or Boco will get mad" she added before sitting back down to answer Satoshi's question. "Well thats the thing you never know but its usually small demons that have sort of catch to them. Think about it, theres gotta be a reason the larger demons hadn't wiped them out and taken extra territory"
"One might argue those big monster things got the last laugh considering the ending but I'll be back shortly" Alpha grunted getting up from his seat to the main controls "There you go, the hatch should be opened the nice and easy way" he said pushing one of the buttons. "Now take care and best of luck on your travels/business adventure"
Hebal groaned shaking her head frantically "No no no I haven't stolen anything from your uncle, not even by acident though don't need to worry about any missing icky pinapples" she frowned bouncing up and rounding Barbaros and Jenna into a long group hug "Aww bye bye you two, do still let us hear from you sometime" she sighed sadly.

Felina sighed seeing the sad viera "Hey don't worry they have to at least write to Itaka and Oassu every once in a while. Safe travels you two and thank you for all your help" she told them standing up briefly for a bow. "I have everything I need packed with the exception of Cid but he's here. How about you dear?" she asked a little relieved that for the time being Oassu would be away from Jenna's influence.
Hayate glanced over and gave the pair of leavers a nod "Don't do anything stupid. And bear in mind if you do move to Tricasia some things will work differently to Agralia in terms of underground activities" he advised pointing to his bird and his bag "Yep I packed ages ago and sent a letter by mognet to say when we're expected to reach Yithra. No point making wedge race the airship so he's coming with"
Satoshi twisted her body around and waved "Good luck maintaining the guilds you two" she grinned before turning back into their conversation "We have a little bit of time though I know which area our airship is at and can guarentee there won't be any long cues. Though if Alpha wants to leave early so he cans tart all his pick ups then we should maybe help him out a bit" she whispered.

Barbaros chuckled "Easy there momma, I'll send you a letter and some of my wives cooking I'm sure you'll love it" he chuckled returning Hebal's hug "And you cheer up now, your going to spend loads of time with your beautiful daughter and I'm going to spend some good time with my children so it'll be fine I'm sure we both appreciate how good it'll be to be back with em" he said returning the hug before leaving to talk a couple of words with Itaka "Right I'm gonna get my bike I'll see ya outside Jenna" he said picking up his back and stepping out the door.
jenna sighed returning Hebal's hug "Alright alright it's not like you'll never see us again" she said punching Oassu in the arm once she was free "Don't you dare not invite me to the wedding and don't go soft on me while I'm gone" she chuckled "I'll keep you updated on the guilds plans though I don't think I'm going to Tricasia" she added to Hayate "Still was nice meeting you all" she said waving to the others before stepping outside.
Gil nodded waving to them "Well guess we've got a bit better luck than them finding our ship Agralia will be a proper destination and they need to book a spot for a bike and a chocobo too" he said "Well we're all sorted to go whenever but you shouldn't look at stories so negatively Alpha" he said.
Oassu grunted rubbing his arm "Well see ya later, be sure to send me some of the funds once you start profiting again and we'll see about that invitation" he sighed "It'll be good to have some consistent income again kinda missed the old business" he sighed turning to give Felina a kiss "Oh well will need to get used to taking a back seat in the business" he said.
Zadina gasped instantly cuddling Hebal "Hey hey Miss Hebal cheer up please you'll make me sad if you stay down like that besides Mr Barbaros is right, soon you'll be able to spend loads of happy happy time with Miss Amane and give her cuddles" he said insistently.

Seph paused "In answer to your question Satoshi, some of he little demons are poisonous. But some just have sharper teeth" she remembered to answer while watching Barbaros and Jenna disappear from the building before making her way over to Itaka. "Well good luck to them getting back into Agralia safely. Though what were you plotting down their? Some fantastic new plot to get your guild revamped or is it all top secret thieves only business"
Alpha shrugged choosing another cold drink from the fridge "It's a sad story at the end of the day so its easy to feel a bit negative about it. But we're not flying for a little while yet. Still got a few hours unless we can nick someone elses boarding time who aren't ready yet. That means you can stay well up to your flight" he assured them.
Hebal sniffed returning the hug from Zadina "Uhuh I guess so but I don't like it when nice friendly people have to go away. It's no fun if everyone disappears" she complained slumping down a little in hear seat. "But don't be sad because of me, a litte more time and perhaps a bit of sugar and I'll be fine in no time" she smiled reaching for a spoon to eat from the sugar pot.

Felina frowned unsure whether or not to stop Hebal from eating all the sugar "I wouldn't advise that or your teeth will go bad" she eventually decided to warm. "I'm sure taking a back seat won't be such a big deal for you. I mean you'll be having too much fun to think about that ideally" she told him finally returning the kiss.
Hayate yawned "But it wasn't all sad was it if the guy succeeded in his mission. It's a matter of perception" he argued moving over to see to Wedge "Well its good to see Jenna got to keep Boco in the end. And don't worry too much about what Seph said to you, I've never encountered a poisonous demon yet and I spent the whole time during the war on the front lines" he added.
Satoshi scratched her head watching the bird fly to Hayate's shoulder "Most airships have a stable nowerdays and a holding area don't they? It's just that you need to pay extra for the extra service, not nice but reasonable fair I think" she muttered glancing down at her nails "I won't be worried, theres not many demons about and I would like to think I could stop one from biting me"

Oassu nodded "Guess I'll be too busy helping out with our wedding and stuff to really take an active role in managing the guild though if Jenna does get in some serious trouble while trying to relocate I'll probably have to go and see if I can help, would you understand?" he asked Felina
Itaka shrugged "Well yeah she paid a little bit for him but she got him at a steal, really though they'll need to pay for the space for the bike though the stable rent will probably be more expensive" he said "Gotta cover food and sometimes insurance and stuff for the chocobo's trip" he said idly stroking Seph's tail as she came to him "And you wouldn't be interested in the stuff just a couple of logistic and economic things, gave Barbaros a promotion stuff like that" he said shrugging.
Zadina nodded stroking Hebal's ear as she sat down "Well we'll just need to see him again sometime Miss Hebal" he said concerned about Gil and Satoshi leaving "You'll be having a wonderful holiday soon" he said yawning again and rubbing his eyes sleepily "And we can see Miss Amane and stuff" he said.
Gil frowned seeing Hebal sniff "I'm sure you could though not seen any little demons like that around here though really you should be careful of any bites as they can all become infected and bad so the little demons aren't too special mind you my armour is kinda biteproof but it's still something to bear in mind." he said
