[center][h3][color=violet]Zenoram[/color][b]/[/b][color=purple]Zero[/color] Mt. Hakobe/Village near the Base of Mt. Hakobe Interacting With: Damian, Karn, Mithera, Melina, NPCs[/h3][/center] It took a moment for Zero to regain his composure. The ordeal on the mountain which seemed to have been a moment frozen in time, despite the fact that it had only really been about a 30 second confrontation before he was swatted away sent down the mountain by Hemlock’s tail. The following roundhouse to the side didn’t do much for him either other than threaten a rib or two. God they hurt. But they weren’t broken. He’d felt a broken rib before. [i][color=purple]Sorry Zenoram…[/color][/i] He thought to which Zenoram brushed off still in shock. [color=f7941d]“Haha all the interesting things happen around you Acheon.”[/color] Uriel said with a small chuckle as he watched the scene unfolding before him. It appeared as though he were completely ready to fight until he noticed his attacker had more or less changed targets leaving him to the chimera thing with the broken leg. [color=f7941d]“Awwww I get the broken toy?”[/color] His comments didn’t faze Zero. [color=purple]“I don’t know what they’re doing… But… They’ve got Hemlock under some kind of control. He was trying to fight it… But… Two minds against one… Luckily I’m alive but… Dammit…”[/color] He spoke to Karn in a hushed voice as he got himself to his feet. He was breathing heavily. Maybe because of the pain, maybe because of the shock of being attacked by Hemlock… Most definitely because he knew this meant having to bring his adoptive father down. He rolled his head to each side, hearing the cracks before he cracked his knuckles. [color=f7941d]“Oooo Looks like this one is getting ready to fight too.”[/color] Uriel then said as he glanced at Zero. [color=f7941d]“So what will it be Chimera-chan?”[/color] He asked as his eyes fell to Karn who was effectively positioned just behind Zero. The young dragon slayer sighed. Even if he was able to fight it wasn’t like he wasn’t hurt. [color=purple]“Karn. You okay? I hit you pretty hard. And to be honest… You don’t seem to be at 100% right now…”[/color] He said as he stared down Uriel. [color=f7941d]“Relax. I don’t want to fight the Chimera.”[/color] Uriel said before the conversation between Karn and Zero could go any further with him as a subject. [color=f7941d]“I’m almost positive that Acheon could handle the beast and the girl without me. But even then, if you're really intent on attacking me, just follow I’m gonna go make sure your other friend hasn’t taken out my companion.”[/color] He chuckled glancing at Acheon. [color=f7941d]“How about that? I’m following your advice.”[/color] He said as he turned and began to fly back towards where Maki should have been with Damian. [color=purple]“Crap… Karn. We should go.”[/color] Zero said. [color=purple]“I’m sure the blood chick can handle herself.”[/color] He said calmly. Even though he didn’t mind if Karn stayed or not he kind of had a feeling Karn being there would just get in Melina’s way. ------------------------------------------------------------- Maki had thought she could handle Damian. She had talked the talk, but she just couldn’t. She could not keep up with the S Class mage. It was a humbling moment. There were few grunts and cries of pain as he struck in succession. The difference in level was too high. No doubt he would be ending this soon. Then it was there. What she assumed to be the final of his attacks. Only it didn't hit. She had closed her eyes, but when she opened them there was something large before her. [color=00a651]“Oooo big surprise. Maki was in trouble.”[/color] Haemos laughed as he and Varen came walking around the large black thing. [color=0054a6]“Quite nimble this thing is.”[/color] Varen patted it. [color=0054a6]“I never expected it to make it. Luckily it did. The dragon is pretty sturdy too. Which helped a lot.”[/color] There it was. The huge black thing defending Maki was a large tail. Trailing up one would see it was connected to an even larger beast. The Dragon, Hemlock. [color=00a651]“Shall we destroy this town and anything else in our way now?”[/color] Haemos grinned. [color=9e005d]“Yeah!”[/color] Maki shouted from behind the tail though she was still trembling a bit in fear.
