A large dragon began walking to the fortress. It's small steps made the ground rumble with every step. A it's red tough hide glowed ever so slightly in the sun. Four hunters grouped together and drew out their lances and guns for the battle before them. A long and dangerous battle it would be. A man in light armor with the lance of undertaker called to his men to place down the large barrel bombs. Two men did so while the others awaited the large monster's arrival. It drew near for the sound of its booms bounced off the mountains. Its large piercing roar boomed through the sky and Alleia woke up. She was breathing heavily, as she sat up and rubbed her left arm lightly. "Father..." She said lowly, as her eyes drifted to the open window. The field was green and filled with children playing little games in the sunny sky. Alleia smiled and got out of bed; she did her daily stretches and grabbed her armor along melting wail dual swords. Alleia made her way out of her house and to the tavern.
Lokee sat in the tavern his hand around the handle of a mug of ale. He had a plate with a large drumstick on it and watched as Alleia came into the tavern. He showed no interest and sipped a bit of his ale, though he did wonder where she'd be off to today. He'd always wonder where she'd go next. His eyes were on his food as he picked up his drumstick and took a bite.

Alleia took a seat near the back of the tavern and let out a soft sigh remembering her dream. "The same every night." She said to herself as a guild maid came to her and asked,"Hello traveler, I'll be your waitress for today what will you have?" She took out a little slab of paper and a writing utensil. Alleia didn't pay attention, still in thought about her dream. She snapped out of it soon and looked up at the waitress, "I'll have a batch of eggs and ale." She replied and looked at the other hunter eating a drumstick. There weren't many hunters in the tavern, most were asleep from the long battles they've fought. Alleia was ready for another fight, besides this was the day she'd take on the Plesioth. She needed her strength for what she was going to do today and to have her mind clear of all things to mentally prepare her for this battle. A mug of ale was set on the table along with a plate of large sunny side eggs with a fork and knife. "Enjoy fellow hunter." The waitress said kindly and walked away. Alleia nodded and began eating.
Lokee cocked his head to the said and from the corner of his eye he looked at Alleia then turned back to his food and took another bite of the drumstick and washed it down with the rest of his ale. He knocked the mug on the table and raised it in the air, "More ale!" He called. "Right away!" A waitress said happily.

The waitress came over and poured him more ale. "There you are!" She said happily and left. "Thank you madame." He said and took a swig from the mug.
Alleia rested her head in her hand as she moved around the eggs with the fork and sighed. She sipped a bit of her ale and set it down.

Sin pulled his shield up on his shoulder as he talked the the small town. It wasnt very crowded but he got many stares from people. It was the type of town where most people knew the others. "Must have something on my helmet." He grinned and stepped inside the guild hall, dropping his shield by the wall without making any nose he took a seat and leaned back. "...Water." He looked up to the maid who came to serve him.

Lokee finished off his drumstick and drank more of the ale. The ravager blade on his back began to shuffle lightly. His eyes shifted to the right and looked at the counter where they make contracts for the hunters. He drank the rest of his ale and stood up to do a quest. He turned to Alleia and took a seat on the opposite side of the bench. "Hello." He said with a glazed look in his eyes.
Alleia kept her eyes on her food, "What do you want?" She asked, knowing his greeting meant something.
"I'd like to go on a quest with you." He said.
"I'm eating." She said hoping he'd go away now. He wasn't a person she'd like to go on a quest with besides.

"I can wait." He said kindly sitting calmly.
Alleia sighed, "What are you going to be hunting?" She asked stabbing into her egg and eating a whole egg. Slowly she chewed it. It wasn't as warm since it cooled off while she moved it from side to side. It tasted good needed a little salt, but it would do. She began to finish them off and drink down her ale.
"Cephradrome." He said his eyes on her hair where her eyes would be. Her hair was interesting to him it seemed mysterious, but he knew it was only her eyes under her hair.
"Alright post the contract and lets get it done I have a plesioth to slay by today." She said standing up and checking her inventory to see that it was all in order.
"Okay." He said and went to the main counter, "The Cephradrome quest." He said to the contract dealer. "Okay." And gave him a piece of the contract while the rest was posted on the guild quest wall set for two.
Alleia put down her mug and took the quest contract, "You ready?" She asked him.
"Yeah lets go." He said and departed for the quest.
(To the desert!!! ^ o^)

(The return of the hunters Lokee and Alleia)
Lokee makes his way into the guild hall and steps up to the counter.
Alleia made her way in and up to the counter. She gave the guild maiden the contract. "Well done you two." The maiden said and looked at the contract. She gave it a cleared stamp and gave them the share of money. "This'll be added to both of your records and guild credits. Thank you and have a nice day." Alleia nodded and walked out of the guild hall.
Lokee noticed her leaving and hurried after her, "Alleia wait." He called to her.
"What is it Lokee?" She asked slightly tired from the trip.
"Thanks for the help." He said with a smile. "Maybe we can go for another hunt sometime."
"Uh huh." She replied and walked off. "Maybe sometime."
Lokee nodded and walked back to the guild hall. He took a seat at a table and slammed a balled up hand on the table. "Bread and water!" He demanded.
Alleia dropped her treasures in the box and put her weapons next to the others. She took off her armor and had on a small top with shorts. "I could go for a bath." She murmured. Alleia grabbed a towel and walked to her indoor hot spring.

"Here you are sir." A waitress said kindly and set down a loaf of bread and a tall glass of water. Lokee nodded and gave a smile, "Thank you." He drank a bit of the water and tore off a little piece of bread and ate it. He thought about the quest he did with Alleia. "She's a really good hunter." He said rubbing the side of his face. "And shes a good cook." He added. "Never have I tasted soup like that."
Alleia came from the indoor spring and let out a sigh of refreshment. She had her shirt and shorts and laid on her bed. How tired she was from that walk back. She closed her eyes and drifted off to slumber.

Lokee continued to eat and drink. He wondered about Alleia's quest she wanted to do. "Plesioth... I think." He said as he held up his head with his hand. "I wonder if she would quest with me again." He chuckled. "Not much to choose from here." He said looking at the guy with the water. He cocked an eyebrow, but shook it away. "He wouldn't quest with me." Lokee mumbled as he let out a sigh. He looked at the guild maiden at the counter and she looked back. He gave a soft smile and she replied with a wave. He rose his hand a little and gave a hesitant wave back. Her hair was blond and she wore a pink guild maiden outfit. Lokee grew unsure of if he should go over or not. He heart began to pound slightly, but it faded away as she went off to do other work and someone else took the counter. He groaned and ran a hand through his hair. He decided to go for a walk, to get a little fresh air. He walked outside the sun beamed in his eyes before he adjusted. He walked through the market place and saw all the vendors out. He looked at the children playing having fun. A few felvine were with an old man and they were cooking up food for people, for a small fee of course. Lokee smirked and continued on to the outside of town where the field of grass was. A gust of wind blew by and the blades of grass began to shine in a wave. He closed his eyes and held out his hands to feel the soft breeze blow by. As it passed he continue to the grass and fell down on his back. He gave a small smile to himself and took in a deep breath and slowly let it out. "What a great day." He said.

Lokee had his hands behind his head and kept his eyes closed. The sun felt good and the small breeze that went by made it even better. He let out a yawn and shuffled lightly getting feeling a bit more comfortable. He hummed a tune his master used to hum. It made his mind trail off to when he'd go gathering with him in the jungle. It made his troubles go away and he'd sing it on breezy days just as this one. Lokee opened his eyes and looked up at the blue sky and saw puffs of clouds in the sky and it made him smile. He enjoyed the simple things in life and he continued to hum as he looked at the clouds float on by. "Such a beautiful day." He said happily.

Alleia woke up and slid to the end of her bed and stood up. She did a slight stretch and put on her armor. She let out a soft yawn and looked in her inventory for sonic bombs, potions, hot drinks, whetstones, mega potions, her power and armor charms, and her power and armor talons, she also brought along a few demon drugs and mega armor skins. She put them all in a pack and got ready to go for her plesioth. She made her way outside and saw it was afternoon. Everyone was busy and about. Before she went to the hall she looked at the vendor's materials. She looked around to see what was out, but nothing caught her eye. Leaned against an armory shop and let out a sigh as she pressed her hand to her head. She was mentally preparing for the quest. Her mother would always tell her to mentally prepare, it'll make a better outcome. She closed her eyes focused ten seconds passed by and she was ready.
Lokee sat up and blinked a few times. He stood up and rubbed the back of his head. He began walking back into town he walked past the armory and saw Alleia with her hand on her forehead. "Hey are you okay?" He asked her.
Alleia lowered her hand and looked up to see Lokee. "Yeah I'm fine." She said "Just preparing for this next quest."
"Oh the plesioth?" Lokee asked. He nodded and gave a small smile, "Hey... mind if I come with you?"
Alleia shrugged, "At your own risk." She replied. "Just come prepared this time." Her voice grew stern. "Just be sure to bring the essentials; hot drinks, potions, sonic bombs, and whetstones." She raised a finger for each one she named. "Alright? Go get anything else you need and meet me at the guild hall." She began to walk to the guild hall.

Lokee nodded and walked beside her, "My things are in the guild hall on the second floor. Its where I reside." He said with a slight chuckle. "I'm surprised that you're ready to knock out another quest after the cephradrome. You're really strong. Normally people I used to quest with would take days before they go out for another quest. They often laze around until something good comes up, but not you, you're a good hunter you are. You're tactical too I mean did you see how you took down that cephradrome? Of course I helped, but I mean that plan was flawless."
She nodded in reply to his compliment and continued nodding and ran a hand through the front of her hair revealing her tough gray eyes for a split second before her hair fell back into place. He went on jabbering about how good she was and how she defeated the cephradrome with her "flawless" plan. Alleia groaned and stepped in front of him and placed her index finger to his lips. "Stop talking." She said annoyed, "Get you're items and lets get going." She removed her finger from his lips and maked her way past all the vendors and into the guild hall.
Lokee's heart skipped a beat when he felt her finger on his lips. It was warm and soft, but as she removed it he walked beside her and into the guild hall. Lokee hopped up the stairs to his hunter room and grabbed the following:
Sonic bombs, Potions, hot drinks, bbq spit, whetstones, and his power charm he bought with the last of his money. He closed his treasure box and put a lock on it. He readied himself and stretched his back and arms a bit.
Alleia went up to the guild maiden in the green clothing with pinkish hair, "The water wyvern of the sea." She asked leaning on the counter with her forearms. "Right away miss." The maiden replied. Alleia groaned quietly at the sound of the word "miss". The maiden gave her the contract, "There you are." Alleia nodded, "Thank you... and don't call me 'miss'. Call me Alleia." She said and walked away. She tore off a piece of the contract and posted it on the wall. With the other piece she placed in her bag and walked over to the tables and took a seat.
As Lokee finished up he made his way down stairs and made his way downstairs. He saw Alleia sitting at a table and took a seat on the opposite side. "Ready?" He asked.
"I've already posted the contract so grab it and lets get going.." She said and stood up.
Lokee nodded and walked over to it and took it from the wall and put it in his pocket. "Alright lets go." He said.
"You sure you're ready?" She asked crossing her arms. "I don't want to have to break my back giving you items you should've came with." Then it hit her. "Along with that I don't want any passing out on the job." She demanded.
Lokee nodded, "I've got my items and I'll do my best." He said and they departed.
