[h2]Ajax Thera - [color=orange]Hellmouth[/color][/h2]

The Wizard Saint noticed Ira when he appeared, turning to face the masked figure instantly. While Stacy began to turn to see what had stopped Ajax, he had already vanished with the mysterious man, leaving her alone on the dirt road. When Ajax appeared on the plateau, he took a moment to take in his surroundings. He hadn't expected anyone to be willing to instigate combat with him so directly, considering his status and renown. But it seemed that this person wanted Ajax's Heart Fragment, a piece of the heart of the former Demon's Maw master. The big, armored man stood still a moment, but the temperature of the area began to rise.

A gust of magical power radiated from Ajax, blasting the remaining wisps of mist off the plateau and revealing the grassy surface. While the sky was dark and imposing there was no breeze, aside from the continuous wind radiating from Ajax. The gust had become so powerful that most humans would be taken from their feet. The magical energy died down after a few seconds, but the mist did not return. [color=orange]"I understand your objective now,"[/color] Ajax stated, crossing his arms over his chest and closing his yellow eyes. [color=orange]"How you came to know the location of the Heart Fragments will have to be determined later. The most important question right now... isn't if I can defeat you and protect the Fragment."[/color]

[color=orange]"It's how to find my way to Era once I'm done."[/color] Steam began to rise from the grass, starting from around Ajax's feet. As the temperature began to rise, the dew had begun evaporating. Notably different from the earlier mist, but similar in properties. [color=orange]"I will reserve my questions for you until we are through,"[/color] Ajax continued, now opening his eyes again. Unlike his stoic, emotionless expression that most know him for, his eyes had an anger in them. [color=orange]"For now, I will wait until you gain the courage to reveal yourself to me. Then..."[/color] The grass across the plateau began catching on fire, the heat in the air growing intense. It felt almost like being in an oven, and the spreading fire across the ground didn't help that effect in the least. [color=orange]"I will punish you for challenging me. The Wizard Saints aren't to be trifled with, and our power isn't to be tested. Your survival now depends on your constitution."[/color]

The big man uncrossed his arms, his hands balled into fists as he stood upright. Ajax Thera was always an imposing man, standing taller and wider than most that met him, always looking down to see who he was talking with. With the flames surrounding him, he looked as daunting as ever, with his scarred black armor and unforgiving gaze. Despite the heat, he seemed completely oblivious to the fire. He couldn't be bothered to notice the flames around his legs. [color=orange]"Come."[/color]

[h2]Hana Oshiro - [color=deeppink]The Last Samurai[/color][/h2]

Before the two women could go investigate what Revan was getting into, the man himself appeared in the clearing with them. He wasn't alone, either, bringing Matisuki with him. And much to Hana's dismay: Revan was completely naked. The pink samurai's face immediately went red and she looked away from the two men. [color=deeppink]"You're indecent, Revan,"[/color] she said simply, keeping her back turned to him. She was tempted, very tempted, to cover him with her blossoms just so she could tolerate looking at him. But Hana knew that would be somewhat disrespectful of her, and Revan was a fellow S-class mage. Belittling him would be rude. [color=deeppink]"I... I'm not going anywhere like this,"[/color] Hana said timidly, tilting her head just enough so she could see Jeanne out of the corner of her eyes. [color=deeppink]"It's humiliating. I don't want to be around nudists. It's dishonorable..."[/color]
