[b]time Lord[/b] [@Lugubrious] [@invisible Man] Time lord was very aware that Nero didn't like him. He smiled in a friendly way, happy to annoy the Genie.[color=598527] "Oh, you dont need to be polite, Nero. I'm very aware you do not have any particular fond feelings for me. All I have is Eve's' best interests at heart, and I hope you do to."[/color] There was a threat in those words, but Time Lord still smiled, looking to Eve, [color=598527]"Sadly, I didn't bring anything today for you. I was running a tad late, and left it home. I'm sure there will be a place to buy something at the games"[/color] He smiled, and looked about the train station, easily picking out the train that would take them to Crocus, and began to herd the others in that direction, [color=598527]"This train will get us there just in time. I'm sure the rest of Dragon Fang will be on it, come on now"[/color] The fact that Time Lord was younger then Nero, not that the Genie, nor anyone else knew this, didn't seem to worry Time Lord. [b]Michael[/b] [@Silver Fox] [@Oblivion666] Michael smiled, happy that he could be apart of the games, as well as see his brother. They hadn't spent this much time apart...in ever. The longest they had been apart before this, was a few hours. It had been a very long adaption, anad Michael was just glad that Gabriel hadn't got himself into serious trouble. "[color=00a651]Of that I have no doubt. Gabriel always loved battles and competitions" [/color]he said, following Prince out.[color=00a651] "I guess I'm just looking forward to be...well, apart of it"[/color] He looked around at the cheers, and the way everyone was. Happy, Michael smiled, and finally managed to catch up with Zephyr. [color=00a651]"I know what you've been trying to do. If you want to take over the spirit completely, my guess is you have to prove yourself"[/color] He gave a shrug, because he didn't know this area of spirits, and could only speculate. He just didn't want his friend to get hurt. [b]Master Jamie[/b] [@Amaya Tamashii] Jamie grinned, [color=f26522]"You aren't back up, Rosie. We are entering two teams. I expect you to do just as well as the others."[/color] He said, taking the bag and slinging it over one shoulder. [color=f26522]"go on. I'll make sure she's all fine and find a good spot to watch from" [/color] She said, grabbing two Lacrimas, handing one to Rose. [b]Penny[/b] [@Zarkun] Penny returned Damian's grin, watching as he created the guild mark. She knew that it had been a frustrating process, but it looked excellent now. She smiled, giving a glance around at everyone. Some were already grabbing teleportation lacrima. There were new faces, which meant they would have to catch up on who joined. Her eyes were drawn to a girl. There was nothing really interesting about her, she could have been any one. No. It was the sense of her magic. [i]Phoenix? Solias said there was only a handful left...[/i] Thinking about Solias was painful, and she swallowed. [i]Is is possible she trained with a Phoenix? If so...Where is that Phoenix now?[/i] Penny wondered, figuring she would speak with the girl later. As far as she knew, she had been the only Phoenix Slayer around. Solias had said about one that he had known, a long time ago, but hadn't heard anything of them for a while. She looked back to Damain, [color=f7976a]"Let's go. You don't want to be late, and miss entering"[/color] She said with a smile [b]Sasha[/b] [@YipeeXD] Sasha retrieved a Lacrima, and retreated back to Lazarus. When the guild gathered, it was quite crowded in the hall, but Sasha liked that. The two teams were quite balanced, she thought, and She thought that Karn at least would be easy to work with. She hadn't had much t do with Nolan, and all she knew of Joshua was from Edolas, and that had been too messed up to really get to know anyone, but he seemed a reasonable member. Of course, the other team had powerful members too which meant that they had a good chance of winning this. But would they have to fight each other? That was a queer thought. She grabbed Lazarus's hand, and activated the Lacrima, transporting them to Crocus in minutes. [center][b]CROCUS[/b][/center] [hider=Jessie][img]http://www.anime-planet.com/images/characters/iron_necromancer_ann_47031.jpg[/img][/hider] it was nearing Midday. The games were about to begin. There was a lot of anticipation and hype for the grand magic games, and the Games Master was milking it up, cheering and getting the crowd involved as the guilds prepared to start the elimination round. At the announcer desk, a small, brown haired sweet looking woman sat with a microphone, speaking [color=f6989d]"So, for the first time in 100 years, we have the grand magic games. How amazing is that? And it looks like there are some strong contenders today! Phoenix Wing, well, we've all heard of them, does anything else need to be said?"[/color] She smiled sweetly, looking to her other commentators, [color=f6989d]"Dragon Fang, again another powerful contender for the games, but these two guilds seem to have a good relationship, I wonder if they will use that in the games? Guess we shall see! Frenzy Plant, not much is known about them, but we are hearing more and more from them! And then there is iron Inigma, a mysterious guild. There are always late contenders, and we've heard things about a Rider guild too! How awesome is that? I wonder if they ride horses!"[/color] Again, she smiled sweetly, and looked to her comrades in the announcer box, [color=f6989d]"Who do you think will win?"[/color] Ferris sat next to the small, sickeningly sweet woman while watching the games master hype up the crowd. She had spoke into the microphone with great enthusiasm that was greatly justified. This was the first time in one hundred years that the games had last taken place and as a mage himself he was very honored and excited to be apart of this even if he wasn't fighting himself. Magic was finally becoming accepted again just like it was back in the golden age of mages, the age when Fairy Tail, Saber Tooth, Lamia Scale, and so on. Today all of the big names of this century were taking place to fight for the title of strongest guild and the prize money that came along with it. He had been looking forward this day ever since it had been announced by the royal family. Brushing his hair followed by sparkles appearing around him, he leaned in and spoke into the microphone. [color=00aeef]"That is completely up in the air. Phoenix Wing has Damian "Blades" Gerald and we all know what kind of force he is to be reckoned with along with Sasha Shin, the Ice Queen that rules over the ice. There are many well known mages such as Trinity, Maddox, and Lazarus, but there are a couple of not as well known mages from their guild such as Nolan and Karn. Dragon Fang is a monstrously guild as well that has one of the strongest teams in all of Fiore and Frenzy Plant's militaristic discipline shall prove to be a tough wall to hurdle for the other guilds. My knowledge of Iron Enigma and the Rider guild is zilch. What I can guarantee is that this will be one blood pumping, heart stopping ride! "[/color] He smiled ever so handsomely at the female announcer with sparkles all around him. The announcer, her name going by Jessie, grinned and said [color=f6989d]"Ferris is making himself look pretty, as if some of you girls in the crowd could see him! He's pulling all the stops, sparkles and everything! This guy's a player!"[/color] she gave a sickeningly sweet giggle, the young woman showing that she wasn't merely a sweet girl. [color=f6989d]"But he's right, there's so many powerful players here, that anyone could win! It's going to be a fascinating ride, that's for sure! Now, the peliminary round, that's going to be a-ma-[i]zing[/i]. There's 77 guilds registered right now, who knew that there was that many guilds around? Of course, 100 years ago that number was much greater, but I think 77 is a marvelous number! But it isn't for the games, of course! So, there needs to be a round to eliminate some guilds, all the way down to six! How awesome is that? Six guilds, out of 77 will compete to prove te strongest guild in Fiore! OH! WE Don't know what the peliminary round is, but we can spectulate! Little birdies over heard questions being prepared, so is it going to be a round of quizzes? WHO Knows, what say you Ferris?"[/color] Ferris smirked at Jessie's not so innocent comments and spoke into he microphone in a way that conveyed that charm of his. [color=00aeef]"I deny nothing."[/color] He chuckled and turned his attention back to the main event in front of him. As fun as it was to play it up with the sweet commentator there were more important matters at hand. He listened to what she had to say about the elimination round. Seventy seven joined in the preliminaries, but only six could make it. They didn't know what the first event except that it maybe a quiz so it was purely speculation at this point. [color=00aeef]"Well Jessie my guess is that the mages' wisdom is going to be tested so that they get through obstacles. One of the most important things a mage needs is their wits. If they don't have that then they aren't worth their guild's crest. If I can guarantee who is going to be in the six is Phoenix Wing, Dragon Fang, and Frenzy Plant. The rest I couldn't say. What about you Jess?"[/color] Jessie giggled again, and smiled, leaning into the microphone, it was clear she was sitting on a book or two to be able to see over the desk. Uncomfortable, she climbed up onto te pannal and brought the microphone to her. [color=f6989d]"Well, of course, they will be in it. They have bright members, once you get passed their power! I reckon you're right, I guess we will just have to wait and see! OH LOOK! The games master, SHeldon is getting ready to start! HUSH! Let' here what he has to say!"[/color] [hider=games master][img]http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-DGJgpGFJ8LM/URxEG8cRHhI/AAAAAAAAAwI/74EM7rQ9unE/s1600/anime-guy-anime-guys-5284778-570-78.jpg [/img][/hider] The Games master was twirling about, generally making a fool of themselves, grinning, dancing and playing up the crowd, but as half past 11 rocked around, he become serious, and stood with a hand in the air, waiting for silence. When He was granted Silence, the Games Master Smiled, and began to speak, his voice unnaturally loud [color=ec008c]"Gooooooooood Daaaaaaaaaaaay Fiore! I am SHEEEEEEEEEEEEELLLLLLDDDDDDDDDDDDOOOOOOOOOOON! Your Master of Games! Now, some guilds are still arriving, some guilds are still signing up, and they have 30 minutes to reach the Stadium! Of course, we have to kull some of them, and bring you six teams! So, the Pelim round, or as I like to call it, You Blew it round, will begin to get rid of some of them! This years Blew it Round is a test of wits, genius and the ability to trust your team members! There are ten levels! You must climb to the top, passing each level and going through the door to the next floor. You must answer riddles! THAT's RIGHT1 Haha, you'll have fun, I'm sure! And you may just find a surprise at the top! You have 25 minutes, guilds! Use them wisely!"[/color] Sheldon cackled, grinning widely [color=ec008c]"Fire up, get ready to RRRRRRRRRRRRRUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE"[/color] [b]Master Jamie[/b] [@YipeeXD][@Zarkun][@silver Fox][@Joshua tamashii][@J8cob][@hatakekuro][@Amaya Tamashii][@Jangel13][@CirusArvennicus] Jamie, still holding Elyse, turned to his teams, and smiled at them. Most of the guild should already be in the stands, ready to watch and cheer the guild on. They had a ssection reserved, close to the action. [color=f26522]"Alright. Take your time with these, and don't get impatient. I know most of you prefer to kick butt, and think later, but I know you can do this! So. Talk and then answer, okay? We'll be cheering you on! I know Sheldon can be queer, but he's really quite harmless. And will enjoy this more then you"[/color] Jamie smiled again, [color=f26522]"Okay. ANy last minute worries?"[/color] [b]Gabriel[/b] Gabriel had arrived with the rest of Frenzy plant, and after enlisting Thor to save him a seat, he went hunting for Michael. He expected his brother to be here, and was not disappointed when he found him through the crowd. Gabriel then proceeded to weave through the crowd, to his brothers side, looking over the members of Dragon Fang that were with Michael. [color=8dc73f]"MICKY!"[/color] Gabriel said, and Michael looked over, then smiled brightly, and pushed towards Gabriel, hugging him. [color=00a651]"Oh, I hoped to see you here, Gabriel! It's so great to see you! I've missed you! How have you been?"[/color] Michael seemed very eager, and Gabriel smiled, glad his brother was somewhat energetic right now. [color=8dc73f]"I'm doing great, Micky, what about you?"[/color] Michael was probably five cm taller then Gabriel, and yet, he had a way of seeming smaller. Gabriel ruffled his hair, and smiled. [color=00a651]"I'm excellent! It's been great, these last few months, but I've missed you greatly"[/color]
