Welcome to Gaia! ::

Jinsoku's portal opened and he jumped out. When he looked around he was in an unfamiliar place.What the.... He looked around and seen a statue of Eden and a somewhat peaceful waterfall. What he had seen next was enough to make his heart stop. Jinsoku's eyes grew wide...standing in front of the statue was High Priest Nyuudou himself. Holy s**t!.....how am I gonna get outta this one? He had no idea where he was, and no idea how he got there. But unsurprisingly none of that mattered to him, for he only wondered how he would get out...

Jinsoku stood up and smirked. He didn't really know why he was smiling when he faced certain doom but either it was his pride or his lust for battle that would not allow him to show any traces of fear to his opponent. He looked the High Priest in his eyes. Before I try to start any fights i need to figure out where the hell am I. Jinsoku looked around. He didn't see any stairs but he knew there had to be some way out of here. He decided the best thing to do was battle, but not with swords but rather words. Maybe tonight would be different and the High Priest would actually listen to reason. "High Priest Nyuudou, I have not done anything wrong. The teaching of Eden tells us to do what is right no matter what the cost and that is exactly what I'm doing. Faia hasn't done anything wrong! Can't you see that, your excellency?! She was framed. I'm not sure why or who but I know for damn sure the person who stole the sword wasn't her! Instead of wasting time hunting her down like a dog you should be finding out who the true culprit is!"

The priest seemed highly irritated but unluckily for Jinsoku his powers hadn't full returned. He looked around and analyzed the situation. Was he really ready for a fight to the death with the High Priest? No, he wasn't...if he fought him now, chances are he would die. What can I do? He won't listen to reason and if I fight him now I'll most likely die. Damn him! I guess that I don't have much of a choice. Jinsoku could feel his anger starting to rise. He was furious. Not just because of the fact that he was facing death in the face but also because he couldn't stand to hear him bad mouth Faia no longer! Jinsoku slid his hand in his back pocket, and a light clicking sound was made, only loud enough for Jinsoku to hear it. "You know what, I'm tired of hearing this from you! So make me an enemy of the church and try to assassinate me! I don't care anymore. Go to hell old man!"

A large shadow crept over the area, it engulfed the church in an ominus presence blotting out the sun. ''Alright, thats the signal...LET ROCK THIS JOINT!'' Asura shouted extatically as he smacked his palm down on a large red button on the control pannel infront of him. The hull of the ship then began parting, ''Oh yeah, here we go....'' Asura flipped a glass case over a set of switches and began flipping them making the switches glow...''BOOM BABY!'' He pulled a lever next to these particular controls and from the parted hull a flurry off vibrantly glowing red orbs began scattering, though they did nothing in the air but glow, upon impact they became highly unstable. The first hit an area of land approximately 10 meters from the church causing a explosion surrounding that general area and in turn the shock of the explosion made a chain reaction.

All the orbs began exploading in a domino effect across the church land leveling everything in their path. The red orbs scattered well over the church itself and the whole surrounding area plowing right through thevery earth leaving not even rubble. ''This is awsome! I love my job!'' Asura screamed loudly with laughter as he then slowly flipped the switches back and returned the controls to the original position pulling back the lever. Asura let out a lengthened whistle as he poked his head out of the window fazing down on the large dust cloud surrounded by fire waiting for it to clear to see the resulting damage. While waiting he curiously spoke without a care and in a joyful tone, ''Is anyone alive down there? I got the signal!.....'' He then paused and childishly paused as he stared down into the destruction he had caused with child like glee filled with satisfaction like an artist proud of his work.

Asura whistled loudly as though impressed and gave a large wide eyed grin. ''Hey there, you survived! Thats good, I would not want my contracter to die....I wouldn't be able to collect my pay! Ha, ha!'' Asura laughed as he stretched his hand out to grasp hold of Jinsoku's and for a moment let him hang from the side of the air ship. ''Wow, thats some impressive leg strength you got there, Remind me never to go up against you in anything involving leg action, friendly or otherwise.'' Asura spoke holding a friendly smile as he yanked him up and draggin him through the window over head. ''What the hell happened to you anyway, you look a mess, and honestly that jump did not look right regardless of the fact jumping up here was impressive....'' Asura suddenly spoke with a more concerned tone though he held a smile, but he still clearly showed some kind of worry for Jinsoku's health.

''Well I think we better get out of here before who ever you seem to want to get away from decides to pull some kind of fancy stunt to either get up to us or bring us down to him....'' Asura pulls down a large lever next to his leg causeing the ship to shake and move rather than hover s i did prior to Jinsoku's bording. ''Alright hold on tight, this is going to be a bumpy ride, Aries is not that smooth at handling when it comes to turning sharply like this....'' Asura spun the navigation wheel rapidly causing most of the ship to totaly tilt to one side at an angle while moving forward performing a sort of mid air turning drift until it faces the opposit direction. Asura then slams his left hand down on a small lever on the pannel moving right up in one shove causing a large amount of kick back for a moment as it quickly jolts forward gliding surprisingly quickly through the air away from what was left of the church.

Shino walked closer and closer to the church and looked further on ahead and saw a huge curtain of smoke covering the sky and a rather large sky ship making it's way from the church. 'Hmmm, so this is what the letter was talking about, thats defiantly Asura' He gave a chuckle as he was suddenly a hell of a lot closer in an instant. Now he was only juts around the corner. Now that he was this close he could see the streets scattered with dead bodies, rubble and parts of the street. There was fire left and right and as he came closer to the church the fire was much more fierce. He went around the corner and saw the church left in ruins and seemed to be devoid of life apart from two people talking to each other. Shino walked closer dodging the bodies, rubble and fire scattered around the streets to get close.

"What the hell happened? I am the leader of the Wind Empire and I got a message to come here. Are we going after As... The sky pirate?" He spoke in a rather loud tone of voice but didn't think that he may need time to get over the amount of deaths that this person had witnessed. Shino tended to speak without thinking very often. He kept walking closer to those two still jumping over the obliterated streets while mumbling something about wanting to be lazy and stay in the house eating junk

Shino looked slightly alarmed at the presence of the man that suddenly rushed up to him but he kept the same lazy posture. He waited for him to finish and he gave a loud yawn as he stretched. He took yet another glace around to see the death and destruction that Asura had caused in his name, the church was no longer recognisable as a church. "I don't care much for the religious side of things, never have, God Eden is just another figure head to me to give false hope to people that need it but I however, have no need for this hope." Shino lifted his hand behind his back and scratched the back of his neck as he continued to talk. "but you give hope to my people so I will help you just to keep the alliance. Now this.... attacker, I know who he is yes... but where he is.... it's an another question completely. He is a sky pirate, not a Lord and therefore he can not sit still. I bet he is already half way to another Empire now. His name is Asura, I have had.... some of my own running’s with this guy, friendly guy really but he just.... loves destruction waaaay to much. His ships are incredible powerful and can n ot be stopped from the outside." Shino took his arm back down and let it drop lazily to his side.

"It is no surprise that he did this. I will help you but only under one condition, I get something in return. We may be allies but my Empire needs things as well. I wish to be given some sort of reward for helping but in the event that I manage not to help at all then I will give you something. I think this is a fitting deal. What shall be at risk is up to you." He finally finished the long winded convocations and he gave a sigh or releid. He hated long convocations where he talked a load.
