Shounen yo jashin wo Idake...

Young man, embrace your wicked heart.
Endless Night Pt 1: chpt 3: A New Day
Issac awoke the next morning with a start, recalling all that had happened on the day previous. He shook his head in disbelief and dressed up in his shirt and robes. His new mission began today. As he stepped downstairs tightening the laces on his robes, he met up with Mia, the young princess he had met yesterday. No longer was she donned in the beautiful white dress, but instead wore a more casual kind of clothing. A white traveling cloak patterned with red triangles at the edges was worn over the golden yellow shirt she wore over it underneath was a white undershirt obviously for no wardrobe malfunctions. She wore a matching pair of pants and donned a quiver of 24 arrows and a bow on her back. "strange taste in wardrobe," He joked. "Are you going anywhere?" "Yes actually," she replied. "I'm coming with you." He looked aback. But for some reason he didn't seem to worry to much about it. "Are you sure about this though?" he warned. "It'll get dangerous along the way." "Of course!!! No way I'm going to leave my friend out there to forget everything again!"

"we were friends?"

"...Yes. Best of friends."

"I see...well lets go then."

They met with King Alex for one final farewell and a starting destination. They were to head to the border city Ethelain as it was the most likely target for an attack and the original area where the first report of the disappearance of the mages and the intelligence forces were. "Good luck," he said. "And may the force be with you." "Wait, what?!"

"Oh sorry wrong story... well good luck either ways."

And off they went towards the border city. The duo prepared for any resistance that came across them. Meanwhile, looming overhead the northern mountain range, a dark airship sailed over the clouds. The Lone figure standing on the bow of the ship, stood staring grimly at the distant horizon...if anyone could see his face that is. He was donned in a black armor, trimmed with a silver metal that looped around every indent that resembled his muscular body. Intricate designs looped around his armor. His own helm was shaped like the head of a dark wolf giving him a fierce feature that went well with his golden yellow eyes that glowed in the dark interior. A young man in a dark grey uniform approached him donning a similar uniform but wasn't as intricately designed.

"Sir," he started. "We have begun to clear the mountains."

he replied in a dark and sinister tone, "how long then will it take us to reach the border city of Ethelain?"

"By this time tonight, sir."

"I hope you're correct corporal. You know how I am about punctuality."

"Y-yes sir."

"Good... I'll return on the bridge by this time to night...And If I do not see the lights of the city...I'll have your head."

"Y-yes sir."

The Corporal left still shaking in his boots. The Armored man chuckled sinisterly. He had that effect on people and loved it. By midday the Duo arrived in Ethelain. It wasn't that long of a walk, they were actually able to hitchhike on the way. What they saw was not exactly what they expected. It was a small town, but there were guards on every corner, The buildings all had a balcony where Archers and cannonneers stood priming their weapons. It was as if the town was declared under attack.

"Whats going on?" Asked Issac. "I didn't think the war had arrived this early."

"It's about to though." said a voice.

The two looked to the right and saw a young boy, dressed in a shirt and ripped sleeves, tucked to make it look neat, and what seemed like ragged brown pants. A dagger hung at the end of his belt as well as a pouch and his hair was styled messily in a spiked anime fashion..

"Who are you?" asked Mia.

"my name is Kaos," said the boy. "I'm the local thief around here."

"Proud of the title are you?"

"heh heh heh. Don't worry, I'm an ally to the country. Also useful as a spy." He frontflipped off the steps he sat on, showing his versatility. "How may I help you"?

"we're looking for information...something you might help us with." said Issac.

"Depends. What information?"

"Who's attacking? and what happened to the Cornelian intelligence forces and the mages here?"

Kaos' face grew dark he looked around the area then said in a low voice. "You should come with me then. That is something that should be told under private circumstances."

He motioned them to follow through a door under the latter and they followed.
