[h1][b][color=ed1c24]Sage Ruzuzaki- Little Brother?[/color][/b][/h1] It wasn't bad..so he though, earn the trust back- Yeah he was finding it difficult as it was. Not only was he placed under house arrest, Jeanne was now his jailer and held the key for him participating in the GMG, while she had all the right to fighting in it in 2 weeks times. It's was already clear if there was no guild-master, she would have killed him. It was fine by him. He already died 4 times the past week. Each one his body reconstructed and became better to handle. [color=8882be]"Boy. With me then. We are going for an afternoon stroll." [/color]That was the first order give to him by her. Sage nodded as he fastened his coat as followed her a meter behind her. This was going to take a lot of explaining to Mei and Kei when they go home. On the casual stroll, he noticed the townspeople bow in her presents as she acknowledged them. Strange...Sage wondered why....i guess it came for being a long term member of Lamia scale, the guild he joined 6 weeks ago, the same guild that he only spend their of 2 weeks in total before this all happened. They sound reached to the outskirt of Margret Town, it was then Jeanne fully spoke to him. [color=a187be]"Do you know the purpose of Lamia Scale, boy?"[/color] She inquired softly, even though her voice spoke with such distinction and purpose. [color=8882be]"It is to help and protect the people. It is not for fame nor for fortune, it is for the greater good in this world. To ease the suffering of those who are undeserving of it. [/color] [color=ed1c24]'This 'boy' reference is not going to go away anytime soon'[/color] Sage sighed and nodded as her words. 'Protect those who can't protect themselves...those words made him frustrated: it was those words they made him help Yang and his Beloved Nukos from danger. It was those exact words that betrayed him, it was like being stabbed countless time by swords by those you knew and trusted....it was evident that Jeanne only saw Black and white of the world: Never Gray. [color=8882be]"Destroying Valdosta displayed your clear lack of such a mindset."[/color] The Archangel continued, wings of purest light slowly grew from her shoulder blades then; so long did they flow outward that they did not stop until they brushed against the tips of the tall grass. [color=ed1c24]'That place was a Illusion, you do know that?' [/color]Sage still kept quite as he watched her wing grow. this 'onee-san' was raising her magical pressure in order to do something [color=ed1c24]'the building people: all of it was one giant illusion: Nothing was accomplished.'[/color] he kept thinking. She did have a point. But sometimes making mistakes is how you grow. [color=8882be]"Control. Focus. Discipline. All three are things you shall learn here. Or you will die trying. Do you understand? I will be the one that measures your worthiness to Lamia Scale no less; fail me, and you will be removed as a member faster than you can blink." [/color]Her fingertips rose so that her gauntlet armored hand faced him, and the closed fist opened for a beautiful effect. [color=ed1c24]'I've already learned all these actions, Bushido works like that. the only thing that sets you and me apart is the fact that you rely on others...i rely on myself to protect and see things through the end.'[/color] Around them both grew and flickered two-dozen blades of light and searing flame. [color=8882be]"You tried to remove my head from my shoulders in Valdosta, and you failed. The being within you lacks the control that you yourself do not possess. Attack me with the fullest of your might to allow me to gain measure of what you can currently do. Both of you."[/color] That when his mind when blank....he couldn't remember. All he saw was blood...a dead girl and a picture of something he had forgotten a long time ago....it wasn't time to think about it, she had challenged him to a sparring match. and already she had set up get swords around him. each one burning with white flames. Sage....strangely calculated each swords...as if wanting to get something out of it. Before looking at her again. She wanted to kill him. She wanted to set him straight. She was the Angel. He was the Devil. With a sigh, Sage removed his arm sleeves from his arm as he covered his upper body, the jacket handing loosely by the belts around his waist. [color=ed1c24]--This other...isn't here...nor i do want you to see him-[/color] he held out his hands and closed his eyes. [color=f7976a][b]Mucro Somnio: Musash![/b][/color] a white light appeared in his hands before two katanas materialized in his hands, he couldn't held back...this women was going to being out everything within him.. exerting his pressure to match hers. He readied himself. [color=ed1c24]-Fine then, let's dance.-[/color] Sage was waiting for the first attack. Full force attack on anything, His mentor was taught him everything, and he had ways to go. This woman was going to be tough.
