[center][i]Flashback...[/i][/center]
Lucas flew across the sky at lightning speed, he had to find Damian, fast. If what that girl said was true, then The Golden laws finally have their super weapon. The guild master needs to be notified, but before going all crazy about this, he had to find Damian. He finally saw him, he was among houses, looks like he was recovering from a fight. Lucas landed without stopping his motion, rushing next to Damian, without saying a word. Damian looked up as Lucas arrived, spinning Durandal around before placing the blade back on his back. When the other mage reached him, he held up a hand. [color=FireBrick]"I'm alright, Lucas. Just didn't account for a hand coming out of a portal from no where."[/color] Lucas's head slightly bobbed down, his fear was coming alive. "[color=00aeef]Damian, I have recently discovered what the weapon is. I wanted proof before going to the master but it cant wait now. The weapon is too powerful, and now they have all the parts to make it.[/color]" Lucas looked towards the bright sky, it may be the last time he sees it so beautifully. [color=FireBrick]"Any weapon that's been broken into pieces is going to take time to calibrate, build properly and ensure proper function. Jamie needs to be told, but we do have time. Oh, and keep an eye out for a guy with a fresh gash across one eye. I managed to wound one of the two, guy used some kind of lightning magic."[/color] Damian followed his gaze. [color=FireBrick]"Besides, they've set themselves at a disadvantage with so few in their guild, even if they are strong. Always a bigger fish, as my father used to say when we would loose a battle."[/color] Lucas shook his head. "[color=00aeef]No Damian. They are no longer small. Their guild is no longer alone. The enemy is in the hundreds, maybe even thousands. It's true we have time, but that time is so little. Maybe a week. I do not know the full capabilities of this device but from what I've gathered, it has a beam like Etherion. I also have reason to believe its a I de-limiter, meaning no magic drain. I shall go tell the master, but we have to prepare for anything.[/color]" Damian shook his head. [color=FireBrick]"That much power takes time to get used to as well. As for their numbers, well, I'm not worried. You forget that the number of Light Guilds and wizards is still higher than that of their dark counter parts."[/color] Lucas was still too worried. "[color=00aeef]The wielder, my father, has been training his whole life for this, it may not take as long as you think. And its true we too have armies, were not just versing guilds. Mercs are with them too. That girl, Charlie Portwing was the one who stole the last piece, is a merc herself. And that lightning wizard, is the infamous wolf slayer, killer of guilds.[/color]" Lucas slowly paced, before stopping and turning to Damian, "[color=00aeef]These next few days are crucial. No time to spare.[/color]" Noting Lucas' worry, Damian pulled his attention to himself and looked the young man in the eye. [color=FireBrick]"You can't train for having no limits because you will ALWAYS have limits without a special device like this weapon."[/color] At the mention of mercenaries, Damian's lips pursed together but he still didn't seem too concerned. [color=FireBrick]"Men and women loyal only to their next paycheck? Poor crowd to put their faith in."[/color] Lucas came to a sudden realization. "[color=00aeef]Wait![/color]" Lucas faced Damian, "[color=00aeef]If the device is capable of firing a beam slimier to Etherion, then it would possibly need to be charged, a day at least. If something is drawing that magical power, a sensor mage could pin point it's location, right?[/color]" He looked Damian up and down, "[color=00aeef]She stopped his attacks, Charlie i mean, didn't she?[/color]" His mind flicking to her on the cliff. Damian shrugs. [color=FireBrick]"First question's answer, most likely, if you can find a mage with that magic. Answer to the second, maybe, but I was too busy fighting and blocking attacks myself to focus on where all the portals were coming from. It's how she got the drop on me."[/color] Lucas thought about his encounter with her, [i]if she wanted to, she could've got out of my hold...[/i] "[color=00aeef]Alright, so what do you need me to do?[/color]" [color=FireBrick]"Tell Master Jamie to keep an eye out for them, and continue on as normal as possible. The last thing we need is any kind of panic."[/color] [color=FireBrick]"Tell Master Jamie to keep an eye out for them, and continue on as normal as possible. The last thing we need is any kind of panic."[/color] Lucas turned, he readied his jump before turning to Damian, "[color=00aeef]What will you do?[/color]" Damian chuckles as he summons a small knife blade and lets it dance on his finger tip. [color=FireBrick]"Train and repair bridges, metaphorically speaking. Don't worry, everything'll be fine."[/color].
