With Azura being the quietest of the two, and Sakura being adorably shy, It was up to Elise to keep up with conversation, she could literally chat up a storm the entire way there without anyone ever getting to say anything if they all wanted to be quiet! She didn't mind! "We won't be far behind!" She said to him, the three girls following the two strangers along.
But as they got a little more ahead of them as she liked, Elise hurried her steps so that she was keeping up at their own pace, hanging right behind them with her smiling face! It was.. to be expected, as they probably would very well know! "Mm! We are..We also think that our sister is somewhere in that city! As we started to ask around, and learned about where we were..we all came to the same idea that maybe big sister was also sent here! It would explain why she has been missing for so long! Right? Don't you think so?? " It was clear she was looking for hope in their own words, if they agreed, she would feel a whole lot better. "My sisters name is Corrin. She has silvery-grey hair and deep red eyes. " She said, smiling as she continued to walk behind them close by. "If you see anyone like that....will you please tell them were looking for her? " That was of course, if the worst case happened and She, Azura and Sakura could not locate her in the city. At least these two would be able to help! "Our world is so much greater then this one, the people are much nicer, and there are no scary monsters roaming the lands. During the war, well, there were kind of creepy monsters there, called the Faceless. Nothing like what we've seen here though! Now though, it's so peaceful! I can go see anyone in Hoshido anytime I want! He,he, that's where Sakura and lots of our friends live. Corrin, Azura and I live in the kingdom of Nohr! You wouldn't believe how much it changed since the war..I really, really love it! " Though, it could never compare to the beauty of Hoshido's kingdom. Still, Elise loved her home. As they continued to follow, they might be surprised by the soft giggle coming from Azura. It seemed, although it was a short time spent with these two so far, her worries were starting to dwindle away. The way Justus spoke, and how they treated them was enough to see even for her, that they were not with ill intentions, there was also something about them, especially the silver-haired one, that had her very interested. "I'm sorry. Elise can be quite the talker." And she meant that in the kindest way! But the look she got from her darling little sister was worth it. "Azuuurrraaaa!! " Her pouty face as she turned to Azura only caused her to giggle softly again, followed by Sakura.

Orion "...Yes, I think that seems reasonable." Justus answered, almost taken aback by how social and talkative the girl was. He really shouldn't be, given who it was, but he supposed she would be maybe a little more withdrawn with someone she had just met. Then again... maybe not. "Well, it certainly sounds like a great place. The world I'm most familiar with isn't so different, but my father-" Orion suddenly held her arm out, bringing Justus to a stop and naturally the other three as well. "...You're right. I see him.""Your sister, is it..." And there in front of them appeared Sephiroth, still with a wound the size of Siegmund's blade in his chest. Yet it clearly didn't slow him down as much as it would most. "Convenient. I have unfinished business with her family. Come... dead or alive, you'll be of use to me." He said, holding out his hand towards Elise, as if she'd willingly just run to him after that introduction.Orion's eyes cut towards Justus, who looked towards her. "I'll handle this. He's already wounded." He said, his hand going to the broadsword on the back of his hip.Orion shook her head. Too dangerous. She raised her arm, closing her eyes--and everyone gathered there would feel the earth suddenly shake violently for a second."Orion, wait!"She wouldn't react. The three behind them would know the energy that was being used--or rather, that was being created. It was very familiar to them. She was utilizing a Dragon Vein, something this world had none of. And that was because she wasn't just utilizing it--she was creating it. Draconic power surged from her body, filling the nearby area with a rich deposit of draconic power to fuel her--and she utilized it to spawn an orb that shot towards Sephiroth, slamming on the ground near him. In the next moment, he'd feel his legs nearly stuck to the ground, making movement much more difficult, while the ground beneath his core tore apart and lava surged up, engulfing his form. Orion's expression didn't change for a moment, and that draconic power would surge again, bringing a glacier to cover Sephiroth's form, freezing him solid....But only for a moment. Either of these attacks could potentially kill most people, but this wasn't most people. He vanished from his icy tomb, appearing behind Orion and plunging his blade through the back of her chest....Or at least that was the intent, as his blade gave a loud metallic clang upon contact, and was apparently deflected. She turned her gaze over her shoulder, her eyes glowing as the draconic power surged again, and the earth shot up in spikes to impale him.Stepping forward aggressively, Justus swung his blade to push Masamune out of the way, before swinging it towards the man himself, feeling his Crest of Blaiddyd surge as his weapon crashed against him, with such absurd force that it broke him free of the earth impaling him and sent him FLYING across the air like a bullet.Yet Sephiroth was beyond resilient, catching himself in midair again. And despite how well they managed against him, he smirked. "Not bad..." He said. "I'll see you again." He said, vanishing once more from the area. It was clear this family was not one to be underestimated, even by someone of his caliber.Justus let out a soft sigh, sliding his blade back into its sheath. "Well, that wasn't what I had hoped to see..." He said.Orion only closed her eyes, turning and silently continuing towards Midgar, as if her power and more specifically her use of Dragon Veins warranted no further explanation to the three with them! This was why she had given Justus that look once they had set out. She knew if she was forced to fight, it would be difficult to hide her heritage--especially from three with Dragon Blood, who could sense and utilize Dragon Veins themselves. Not that it particularly mattered to her.

Elise smiled brightly, her energy and cheerful nature knew no end! It seemed to raise when meeting new people, Elise was a girl who loved to make new friends, and talk til the end of time, her innocence never seeming to register how annoying she might be to others! "Uh huh! I want to hear all about your---huh? " She paused, as the two suddenly stopped. Elise confused eyes scanned the area ahead, curious who or what made them stop so abruptly. That answer came in the form of a silver-haired man, clad in a...uniquely black outfit, a style not seen in her world! "Huh?? ..Are you...talking to me? " Gosh, she was very confused today. She had no idea who this man was, and it wasn't every day people struck up a conversation willingly with her! "Um...Unfinished business withCorrin? ...Are you talking about my sister?! ..What do you mean? You want to hurt my big sister?! " As if she could do anything to stop him! Look at that BLADE! Gods, she never seen one so scary before. "Hmph..! I-- I won't let you threaten my family! " ...It was easy to talk, wasn't it.
But neither she, or Azura and Sakura would have a opportunity to prove how much they were willing to step in to protect Corrin, before Orion stepped up rather quickly.
That woman was a complete mystery to her and the other two, but that mystery really began to increase with what they would see in the next moment. "Wha--! Is that...a Dragon Vein??? " "I don't understand, Corrin is the only one that we know of, who can use the Dragon Vein..but what she is doing.." Azura was hard to distract from the dangers of battle, but even she found herself overly curious about this girls ability. It was even greater then what Corrin herself could do. "This is more then just using the power of a Dragon Vein......it is as if...she herself is creating it? " Azura was suspicious before, but now...it was back. Just who was she?
The man clearly seemed skilled himself, yet he had no chance of standing against their mysterious friend here. "Wow! She's really showing him who's boss, isn't she! Hehe, serves him right for threatening my family!! " She really, really wanted to bonk him on the head a few times too, but, she may end up at the end of his blade before even remotely getting any chance against him. As if she had a chance at all. It wasn't just Orion, who showed incredible strength as Sephiroth became a literal baseball! "...We..should really stay with these two.."
With Sephiroth taking his leave after being severally beaten like a rag-doll, Elise turned to look at the two again. "You two were amaaaazing! But...Hey! " Orion might be surprised when Elise took it upon herself to rush over to her, and step right into her path as if to block her from going any further! "How did you do that?? Even big sister can't actually create a Dragon Vein.. Come on, tell us! You're from our world, aren't you! "

OrionOrion's stoic gaze didn't change as her steps came to a stop, as her small aunt blocked her path. Her eyes closed, and she let out a soft sigh. She shook her head to answer her question, but clearly they required more of an explanation than that."What you saw wasn't a... Dragon Vein, whatever that may be. She simply has a power that-"Orion turned her head towards him, shooting Justus a blank expression to make him stop talking. Turning back to Elise... "...Corrin...is my mother." Her voice finally came out for the first time since manifesting in this time period as a mirage. It wasn't as hard and stoic as she may have looked--it was soft and almost demure sounding. It was clear she did not talk very much."..." Justus rubbed the back of his neck. "...Yes, we were not entirely honest, I'm afraid. We knew who you were. That's why we wanted to help you get to Midgar safely. I would've preferred to keep the truth hidden a while longer, but telling you was Orion's decision."Then, as though she had made a mundane comment about the weather, Orion stepped past Elise, back in the direction towards Midgar once again. As though, again, that warranted no further explanation.
