OOC: Note that this first part takes place before they go away
IC: Jikka watched the fight, "Well that was spacktacular, I only had one problem, you forgot to mention me in that list at the end" Jikka laughed, "Well, Imma go shopping" Jikka said and walked off. He was walking along when he saw a weapons stall, "Oooh, these look nice" Jikka mused at them, as he looked around, then suddenly saw somthing, a Bastard Sword even bigger then his own, at least 10, maybe eleven feet long, "Hey stall vendor guy! How much is it for that giant bastard sword back there!?" Jikka asked him, pointing to it, "Money is no object... probably"

[color="#800080"]"You're not destroying your tradition by being with me, r-remember? But l-lets try to keep that bit from getting to Rage, o-ok?"[/color] She then let out a gasp as Zenith pulled out the wedding ring heirloom. [color="#800080"]"I.. Its beautiful! As for my name, I care not at moment!"[/color] Her blush became brighter and wider as Zenith said he wanted her to be her wife and the mother of his children. She then let out a small giggle as he slapped himself. [color="#800080"]"I-i think its cute when you stutter and blush.."[/color] she said shyly. Then as he asked that magical 4 word question, she couldn't help but to fling her arms around his neck in a hug as she deeply kissed him. [color="#800080"]"Y-YES!"[/color] She shouted out as she briefly stopped the kiss before returning to it.

After a few more moments filled with kissing, she pulled away and reached into her back pocket. [color="#800080"]"In.. In the gypsy way of life.. Its tradition for the female to give her lover a gift soon after engagement... I was going to give this to you, with or with the proposal..."[/color] She then explained that she had bought a medallion back at the village, intending to change into a charm as she pulled out a small napkin that had a leather necklace hanging out as the charm was still hidden. [color="#800080"]"Its been absorbing my love for you and the magic I possess, the shape changing accordingly.. I haven't looked at it since I bought it as a medallion..."[/color] After she finished explaining, she removed the napkin. Within her palm laid a charm that was about 2-3 inches long. It was an image of an elf that was being wrapped around and embraced by a dragon as both figures held onto the same small, pure, clear crystal. [color="#483D8B"]'It turned out amazing! I hope he loves it...'[/color] Laila said as she placed the necklace into his hands. [color="#800080"]"I-I don't know the power that lies within this, but that crystal should glow when it's in use..."[/color]

[Kyng's Old Account]

Zenith kissed Laila's lips gently as he was lost in her beautiful eyes. Then when Laila said yes Zenith shed a tear of happiness. [color="#556B2F"]'T-thank you.'[/color] Suddenly, the villagers around them cheered, threw roses and tossed hats into the sky. Zenith couldn't hold back a smile. Then Laila gave him the charm. It was a beautiful charm, an elf wrapped and embraced by a dragon. [color="#556B2F"]'Laila, this is beautiful. Oh Laila, you couldn't have made me happier than I am now.'[/color] And as he finished putting on the necklace the Dragovian Seal on his chest which was upon anther necklace glowed. [color="#556B2F"]'This is the Dragovian Seal, nothing to worry about. It means something in my life has changed. And this change couldn't be better!'[/color] Zenith lifted Laila and spun with her, deeply and passionately kissing her.

Arthur contnued with the plot. [color="#FFA500"]'Do you recognize where you stand? You stand in the throne room of the Greatest Monarch alive, King Arthur Europa! The undefeated King! I got this reputaion not by saying "Oh, that's alright, it was an accident." but by brutality where needed! I have beheaded childen for burning down orphanages! I have killed with my own two hands not just here in my Capital, but on the Battlefield! You will get no mercy from me!'[/color] Then he winked at them. [color="#FFA500"]'Now Silence! I must decide upon a punishment suitable for-'[/color] Suddenly the door opened and Arthur's servant came crashing down. 'I-I-I-I-I!' [color="#FFA500"]'Guards! Have him hung immediately.'[/color] 'Yes sir!' The guards then took the servant and walked off. [color="#FFA500"]'Now, we must plan your escape. Captain Daina has told me one of you have the key. That is excellent. Now, stand still.'[/color] Arthur stuck out his palms and they glowed green. [color="#FFA500"]'I still have some of my Sphere's energy!'[/color] Suddenly, out of each of the "criminals" came a doppelganger, each looking the same. [color="#FFA500"]'Now, I'll tell them that you lied to Captain Daina, giving false names. Then I'll have these artificial clones hung in your place. As for you Lance, Captain Daina told me nothing of you. Why should I set you free? You will have a small punishment.'[/color] The king took out a thick book and opened it. [color="#FFA500"]'Hold out your hands. Theft is unacceptable, but I'll take it you wont do it again.'[/color]...

[Elƒie]

She let out a small squeal of happiness as he picked her up and began to spun her around. She closed her eyes, enjoying his deep and passionate kiss as she wrapped her arms around his neck tighter. [color="#800080"]"I love you Zenith! Nothing could make me happier than taking on the Stormfury name and birthing your children! [i]Our[/i] children!"[/color] she shouted out in pride and happiness before returning to the kiss.

------------------------------------Meanwhile in the Schyderg House--------------------------------------

Even though Kaleb was asleep, he heard Laila's last sentence in his sleep. [color="#808000"]"SHE AGREED TO MARRY THAT... THAT.... AAAAAAAAAARRRGGGGGG!!!"[/color] he yelled out in a dream as he grabbed his hair and pulled on it. [color="#808000"]"SHE'S ZUPPOZE TO BE MINE! GRRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!"[/color] Then, in his dream, a couple of dozen doll versions of Zenith appeared as he pulled out Night's Tear. [color="#808000"]"HE'LL PAY FOR ZIS!"[/color] he screamed as he sliced through each one. As he stood there, panting and his face red from fury, a jester appeared forth in his dream. [color="#808000"]"What do you want, jester!"[/color] he said commandingly as he held up the tip of Night's Tear towards the jester. [color="#808000"]"You belong not, in my dream!"[/color]

[MortalKombatSmoke]

Neol bowed to the King, [color="#9932CC"]"Thank you for understanding, and thank you for all of your help, My king."[/color] Neol bowed before King Aurthur, [color="#9932CC"]"Please take good care of that Sphere, we know it is in trustworthy hands."[/color] Neol waited for Cael to uncuff him, [color="#9932CC"]"Now how do you suggest we leave without being spotted?"[/color] Neol asked, not really wanting to do any thinking at the moment. He was just following along right now.

[.:Blu:.]

"[color="#008000"]Thank you your Majesty. Neol's right, that sphere right now will be more safe with you than with me. Even though I'll be needing the sphere later on, I'm just grateful that you've helped us escape death.[/color]" Cael said. "[color="#FF0000"]Wait, I'm still getting punished?[/color]" Aki asked. Cael unlocked his chains and stocks then unlocked Neol's before turning to King Arthur. "[color="#008000"]I know I've already asked a lot of you by having you freeing us, but please don't punish Lance too severely. He's going to be helping me and Neol as well.[/color]" Cael pleaded. Aki sighed before holding out his hand. "[color="#FF0000"]No need to plead for my sake Cael. I did stole that damn cat... Oh well, I guess I have it coming to me. Besides, it's either listen to the King or die, and I think I rather listen.[/color]" Aki dryly joked. Cael then looked at Neol. "[color="#008000"]Oh right, how will we get out of here without being spotted?[/color]" Cael asked, not knowing how either.

[Kyng's Old Account]

Zenith kissed Laila over and over and over. He was the happiest he'd ever been. [color="#556B2F"]'Laila, from this day forth, you are my one, my only, my everything.' "I can't believe it! When we first met we were at eachother's necks and now...now we are engaged! I can't believe how lucky I am." 'Laila, you wish to bear our children? That would mean they would be Elf and Dragovian.'[/color] Zenith said to his fiancée as he carried her with his arms, still worshipping her with his lips. But he thought [color="#556B2F"]"Just as Rage said...could this mean what he said about everything else is true?"[/color] Zenith looked at the emerald green eyes of Laila and said [color="#556B2F"]'My love, I would be proud to be your husband. I can't wait for our wedding. I promise you, you shall have everything, everything you could possibly desire. But there is only one thing I desire. And that, my perfect rose, is you.'[/color] He said to her. The villagers were still cheering and roaring at the magic of the moment. Some were even crying. [color="#556B2F"]'Laila, what shall we do now?'[/color]

[b]'Now now, don't fret, I'm just a mere jester!'[/b] Ludentimpus said to Kaleb, holding the tip of Night's Tear. [b]'...is what i would've said a long time ago!'[/b] Then he grabbed the tip and crushed it. [b]'You are a little feisty one, you are! Pointing weapons at me like that! Hehehe...it's such a pity, such a pity that Rini decided to marry that Dragovian. You know, he also is supposed to be an excellent lover, attending to all her needs!'[/b] Ludentimpus wanted to make the anger in Kaleb grow. [b]'But you knew she was to good for you. So why oh why did she settle for that scrawny piece off flesh? Maybe, it's his other form that really sets her off. I mean, how can you compete with a dragon? Sure, they've been slain, but only by heroes. And my friend, you are no hero.' [/b]Ludentimpus then created a dagger of pure energy and swiped it across Kaleb's face. exposing blood. Then the wicked Jester licked it off his face. [b]'Mmm. Tasty. Well, you want her so badly right? I can help you with that! I can give you strength beyond your sweetes dreams. And then...'[/b] Ludentimpus picked up a doll of Zenith and crushed it in his hands, strangely squirting out organs, bone and blood rather than fluff, which came out the other dolls. [b]'...he'll be gone! But there is one slight problem. If you kill him and she finds out, no chance. We need to expose and kill him secretly, then you'll be her shoulder to cry on, and one thing will lead to another, much more pleasurable other.'[/b] Ludentimpus then let out a maniacal laugh.

The King closed the book on Aki's hands quickly and strongley. [color="#FFA500"]'There. Now go, I'll deal with the guards. Just walk the streets, when the doppelgangers are killed you are off the hook.' [/color]Then Arthur said to them [color="#FFA500"]'Ok, hide. Guards! Hang these men!' [/color]'Yes sir!' The doppelgangers were taken by the guards and sent off to their destiny.[color="#FFA500"] 'Now you are free men. Write a letter to Daina about your status, she's worried. Also, I no longer possess the Green Sphere of the Almighty, its in the hands of a Dragovian by the name of Zenith Stormfury. Farewell, gentlemen.'[/color]

[MortalKombatSmoke]

Neol used his magic to make himself, Cael, and Aki invisible temporarily right before the guards entered. The spell wore off just in time less than a minute after the Guards left and were down the hallway, [color="#9932CC"]"That was close, sorry, that spell is strong and doesn't last long." [/color]Neol then bowed to the king and thanked him, [color="#9932CC"][i]"Wait... a Dragovian? Well..."[/i[/color]] Neol stood up straight and put his book away, [color="#9932CC"]"well, it couldn't be in a better place. Not only is it with a Dragovian, but it's also one you trust. It is definatly in good hands, now Cael let us get going."[/color] Neol then headed for the door, [color="#9932CC"]"Aki you are coming to I presume."[/color]

[.:Blu:.]

When the book was slammed onto Aki's hand he winced with pain and almost shouted but he kept it in. "[color="#FF0000"]T-Thanks your Majesty...[/color]" Aki comically muttered, a tiny tear drop at the ends of each of his eyes. After unlocking Aki's chains, Cael listened to what King Arthur had to say and was surprised to hear that King Arthur did not have the sphere after all. "[color="#008000"]So it's with a Dragovian named Zenith Stormfury huh? Right, got it. Thanks a lot your Majesty.[/color]" Well they were given the chance, Neol turned all three of them invisible so they could escape. When asked if he was coming along, Aki simply nodded. "[color="#FF0000"]It's not like I have anything better to do. Besides, I already told you on the ship that my new life will be helping Cael find the spheres.[/color]" Aki replied. "[color="#008000"]Alright then, let's move out.[/color]" Cael spoke before all three of them left the castle.

[Grunt Issun]

Jikka had been able to haggle with the man until he got it down to a more reasonable price, "Thanks, and next time we meet, you have to tell me how that works out," Jikka said to the man as he began to walk off with his new sword, "No problem, Jikka, and I'll be sure to do that." he called back, then Jikka walked around for a bit until he heard cheering, "The hell? Whats with that?" Jikka wondered, and walked twords the crowd, he threw some people down and out of his way, with many people protesting agianst him doing so, and when he came to the front he saw Zenith and Rini, "Oh geez, is this really what the crowds so worked up about?" Jikka said with a sigh, "I thought there was somthing INTERESTING going on, oh well" Jikka said and sighed.

[MortalKombatSmoke]

Neol opened the doors to the back exit and left the building with Cael and Aki behind him, [color="#9932CC"]"Before we do anything... I saw a store before that I have buisness with."[/color] Neol said as they walked, Neol saw a man being unbelievably rude to people crowding over something, [color="#9932CC"]"What do you suppose his problem is?"[/color] Neol asked before entering the blacksmith shop he was talking about. [color="#9932CC"]"You two,"[/color] he said to Cael and Aki, [color="#9932CC"]"Stay here." [/color]He pointed to the ground outside of the shop before he went in. He was in there for a good five to ten minutes. He then exited the shop with new, black armor lined with gold instead of silver and two new jewels on his boots. [color="#9932CC"]"My buisness is done..."[/color] Neol said with a smile. He also had another Jewel which was attached to his sword.

+ 1 Black Magic Armor (+50 defense, +30 Will, -20 agility, immunity to water and fire based attacks)
Mystic Blade - - Upgraded (+50 offense, +20 Will for Fire and Dark based moves, -10 agility)

[.:Blu:.]

"[color="#008000"]Whoa, you look completely more powerful Neol![/color]" Cael said excitingly. "[color="#FF0000"]But you were in there too long.[/color]" Aki said. "[color="#008000"]Speaking of armor and stuff, I need to go sell something and look for something to buy.[/color]" Cael spoke before walking to a nearby shop that sold weapons exclusively. Cael looked at the available selection of weapons and saw an interesting looking short sword. "[color="#008000"]Hey Mister, how much does that sword cost?[/color]" Cael asked. "Oh this one? It just arrived this morning. Only got one in stock. Since you look like you really want it, I'll sell it to ya for 1,500 gold." the shopkeeper replied. "[color="#008000"]Wow that's a steal! Thanks![/color]" Cael said as he gave money to the shopkeeper and the shopkeeper handed him the weapon.

Received Silafarion (+30 to Offense & 50 to Agility)

"[color="#008000"]Oh yeah, I also wanted to sell this Cave Orc's Hammer. It's too heavy for me to use in battle.[/color]" Cael said. "Alright, I'll take it off your hands and I'll give ya 600 for it." the shopkeeper said. "[color="#008000"]Thanks![/color]" Cael said before taking the money. "[color="#008000"]Alright, so next I think we should look for this Zenith Stormfury guy.[/color]" Cael suggested.

[Grunt Issun]

Jikka over heard someone talking about Zenith, he moved back through the crowd to see who was talking about him, and saw two people that looked vaugley familiar, and one person who was a complete stranger, "Hey, you're looking for Zenith storm-whatever, theres a guy named Zenith up there, not sure if its the same guy, but it's probably not a bad idea to check" Jikka told them, then he realized somthing [i]'Why would I tell them that? I'm usually not that kind of person'[/i] Jikka noticed of himself, "Hey, do I know you guys from somewhere?"

[MortalKombatSmoke]

[color="#9932CC"]"Dragovians may seem like huge beasts but most of them have human form. However..."[/color] Neol began to look around, [color="#9932CC"]"Each fate line for different species have different colors, Humans have gold fate lines, Warlocks and Witches have purple, and Dragovians... Well... they have green." [/color]Neol said looking around and saw a green fate line on one of the people in the center of the group of villagers, [color="#9932CC"]"Well... Looks like there is our Dragovian. He's the man back there Cael, spiky green and gold armor and blond hair. You cannot miss him."[/color] Neol pointed out.

However some other man, the man from before near the cave, had told them where he was also. [color="#9932CC"]"Yes... You're the one who were following us until we entered the Cave of the Nightmare Guardian."[/color]

[.:Blu:.]

"[color="#008000"]Wait so he's already here?! Well then that's easy then, let's go![/color]" Cael exclaimed before running off. However, before Cael can go, the man they saw from the Cave of the Nightmare Guardian arrived. "[color="#008000"]What the- It's you! Huh? You say he was following us Neol?[/color]" Cael asked as he didn't know the man was following them. "[color="#FF0000"]Uhh wait, I'm confused, who is this guy?[/color]" Aki asked. "[color="#008000"]I don't really know myself but I remembered he said his name was Jikka, am I correct?[/color]" Cael asked the man. "[color="#FF0000"](This guy doesn't look very trustworthy. I should know, I'm a pirate and a thief...)[/color]" Aki thought to himself as he looked at Jikka.

[Grunt Issun]

"Yes" Jikka nodded, "Thats right, I remember, and yeah, my name IS Jikka" he told them, then looked at the new guy, he studied him for a few seconds, [i]'This guy seems odd, somthing about him... must be some kind of criminal, he gives me the same vibe as those 'High Risk Traders' so maybe he's on of them?'[/i] Jikka thought, he decided it was best not to bring it up, "But anyway, I'm not all that important, you guys know the way" Jikka told them, then sat down, laid agianst a house, and started to take a nap.

[MortalKombatSmoke]

Neol watched as Cael and Aki went towards Zenith, [color="#9932CC"]"I'll meet you guys there in a minute." [/color]Neol said, he looked over to Jikka and saw his fate line, coming closer to Neol's own. "Jikka huh?" He said quietly to himself, he walked over and tapped the guy on the head to wake him up, [color="#9932CC"]"Hey! Anybody home?"[/color] He asked, standing tall above the man on the ground. [color="#9932CC"]"Jikka, You are a petty theif... I can tell. I served much time in the rift, however, there is something different about you." [/color]Neol then saw their fate lines begin to touch, [color="#9932CC"]"Our fates have something to do with each other, now let me ask you something... Are you happy with your life?"[/color] Neol asked Jikka.

[Grunt Issun]

"Huh?" Jikka mumbled as he woke up to someone tapping his forhead, "Well I don't know about petty but..." he began but then he said somthing about there fates "Fate huh? Interesting" Jikka decided, that being one of the few things he actually belived in that have to do with things like that, "Am I happy with my life? Um... To tell you the truth I don't know... I think I am, but after what I've seen recently, I've realized that I'm not as powerful as I once thought, at least not compared to the people I've met, I mean... I'm was happy, because I was sort of enjoying being a bandit, and everything like that, but now with these guys, I don't know anymore" Jikka told him [i]'Woah! I just completley opened up like that to a total stranger, what the hell just happened?'[/i] Jikka thought

[MortalKombatSmoke]

Neol nodded and smiled a devilish smile on the inside, but a caring smile on the outside, [color="#9932CC"]"Now you are thinking, [i]'why did I open up to a stranger?'[/i], Jikka, I am a powerful Warlock, and your face is easy to read. You obviously believe in fate and have an odd urge to prove yourself... This I can help you with."[/color] Neol then extended his gauntlet out to Jikka and opened his hand, [color="#9932CC"]"Jikka, I sense a great potential in you, dormant inside of you is a great, powerful warrior. I can see it. Your potential however is blocked by a fear, and by your love for thievery. I can teach you the ways of the dark arts, I can teach you to unlock your true potential and you can matter in life. If you join me, I promise you... You will earn a rightful spot in the history texts. Our fate lines are about to intertwine... It just depends... On whether or not you take this opportunity, and grab my hand."[/color]

[Grunt Issun]

"A powerfull warrior..." Jikka muttered, "True potential..." Jikka stood up, "Alright Warlock, everything you say, it's made these things much more clear, I'll do it, I'll learn the dark arts, no point in trying to defy fate" Jikka decided, and took his hand, [i]'A powerful warrior, dorment inside me'[/i] Jikka thought as he did so, [i]Blocked by fear, and my love for theivery'[/i] he continued to think [i]'And now, thanks to fate, this warlock, whatever his name is, is going to help me unlock that potential, and teach me the dark arts'[/i] Jikka thought with a smile on his face.

[MortalKombatSmoke]

Neol shook Jikka's hand and smirked, [color="#9932CC"]"My name is Neol by the way, Neol Mardolva Lukia."[/color] he said ending the handshake, [color="#9932CC"][i]"Jikka, he will become useful to me... Now... But wait, what about Cael? Why did I go out of my way to- never mind, I must have had a good reason for it when I blacked out. But Now..."[/i][/color] Neol patted Jikka on the back, [color="#9932CC"]"Jikka... I will teach you any spells that I belive will help you, but for now... We must meet up with your new allies."[/color] Neol said as he walked over to Cael and Aki who were near Zenith.

[.:Blu:.]

Cael and Aki made their way through the large crowd of people. "[color="#FF0000"]I wonder if Zenith guy is really even here?[/color]" Aki asked. "[color="#008000"]Well Neol said he is, and I trust Neol is right about it.[/color]" Cael replied. "[color="#FF0000"]How can you trust people so easily on things?[/color]" Aki asked. "[color="#008000"]Well, all this time he's been with me and he hasn't try to kill me or harm me in any way so why shouldn't I trust what he says?[/color]" Cael asked. "[color="#FF0000"]*Sigh* Whatever Cael, I just got a bad feeling that leaving Neol with that Jikka guy will come back to haunt us later...[/color]Aki replied. The two made their way deeper into the crowd and soon they were almost at the center. "[color="#FF0000"](You know... At first I thought stealing the spheres is the only reason I came along with this kid, but he did save me from probably getting hung... Maybe... Maybe it's not so bad... Changing my pace...)[/color]" Aki began thinking. However, his train of thought was interrupted as the two entered the center. "[color="#008000"]Umm, excuse me, a-are you Zenith Stormfury by any chance?[/color]" Cael asked a man wearing golden armor with blonde hair.

[Kyng's Old Account]

Zenith noticed the boy ask him if he was Zenith Stormfury. [color="#556B2F"]'Yeah, that's me, and this lovely woman...'[/color] He looked into Laila's eyes, who he was carryng in his arms. [color="#556B2F"]'...is my fiancée, Laila Madou, or soon to be Laila Stormfury.'[/color] Then he passionately kissed Laila's lips. He was lost in the magic they shared with their love. As he pulled away from Laila's lips he looked into her eyes for a moment. [color="#556B2F"]"I could stare into those beautiful eyes for the rest of my life...wait a minute, am I forgetting something? Oh yeah, the kid!"[/color] Zenith then turned to Cael, ready to answer him. [color="#556B2F"]'Sorry, kid, but can you blame me? Anyway, what's wrong? Anything I can help you with?'[/color]

[.:Blu:.]

Seeing Zenith's and Laila's romantic moment there, Cael began blushing and his eyes widened to which Aki quickly covered Cael's eyes. Aki had a big sweat drop on his head. "[color="#FF0000"](Jeez, don't you guys care about privacy...?)[/color]" Aki thought to himself. After their moment had finished, Zenith turned back to Cael. "[color="#008000"]Well Zenith, my name is Cael and this here is my friend Aki. I've came seeking one of the Seven Spheres and I heard from King Arthur that you are in possession of a sphere. I'm on a mission to collect the Seven Spheres in order to create the Golden Sphere that will be delivered to the Almighty.[/color]" Cael explained. "[color="#FF0000"]Stop beating around the bush and get to the point already Cael.[/color]" Aki said, crossing his arms. "[color="#008000"]U-Um well... Do you mind parting with your sphere?[/color]" Cael finally worked up the courage to ask.

[Grunt Issun]

Jikka had followed Neol through the crowd and up to Zenith, and when he had kissed Rini... er, Laila, Jikka couldn't help but smack him on the head, "You moron! Don't you have any manners, this comming from ME of all people!" Jikka yelled at him angrilly, then he just shook his head, and listened to the kid talk to Zenith, "Spheres eh? I assume thats what you were after when you went into that cave not to long ago?" Jikka asked him, then sat down, rolled some Tabaco is paper, put it, unlit, into his mouth, took out his flint rocks, and sparked it right in his own face, then looked at Zenith, "Oh by the way, sorry to disapoint you, but I think I'm goin' with these guys for a while"
