[center][@SoleAccord], [@Piercing Light] [h2][color=sienna][b]Cerden [/b][/color]and [color=darkorchid][b]Flora [/b][/color]- Agrabah Palace[/h2][/center] [hr] [color=darkorchid][b]“So what do we do now?” [/b][/color]Flora asked. Looking at each other, both Cerden and Flora knew that with the Destroyer Warship leaving Agrabah’s orbit and into the blackness of outer space, their chances of saving Dominic and Shinto flew away along with it. If that wasn’t bad enough, there was no telling where Nomis and that ship went. It could have flown off to god-knows where and that’s what the worst of it was for Flora. [color=sienna][b]“I have no idea. I don’t even know where they could be heading, but don’t worry. I’m sure Dominic and Shin will be fine for the moment.”[/b][/color] Cerden said Flora looked at him as she sighed. [color=darkorchid][b]“I guess so,”[/b][/color] She said. [color=darkorchid][b]“But that still begs the question on what we do next? If we have no idea where they’re heading, that kind of makes it hard to follow, no?”[/b][/color] Flora asked. [color=sienna][b]“You do have a point,”[/b][/color] Cerden said, agreeing with Flora. Cerden’s eyes came to his surroundings, looking at the rubble that was the result of what had just happened. There was gravel and blown up chunks of beige-colored stone from the palace. He took a few paces examining it. He went down on one knee and picked up one of the chunks of stone. For whatever reason, Cerden thought this was worth his time. [color=sienna][b]“Funny that this all used to be a beautiful palace. Now, it’s destroyed.”[/b][/color] Cerden said. [color=darkorchid][b]“Okay, but what does that mean?”[/b][/color] Flora seemed confused by where Cerden was heading with this. [color=sienna][b]“I’m just saying. The Empire might be gone, but this beautiful palace paid. Just a pity.”[/b][/color] [color=darkorchid][b]“I didn’t peg you for the sentimental type.”[/b][/color] She said, a light chuckle escaping her mouth. Cerden laughed, and put the chunk of rock down to the ground. He got up and dusted his pants off. He started taking off and Flora followed curious as to where he was heading. Cerden continued walking through the rubble of the palace without saying a word. Flora didn’t know where he was going or what brought on this sudden desire to take a walk. It would be about five minutes and several hundred paces around the rubble until Cerden came to a stop, Flora not far behind. She peered through the wall that Cerden was hiding behind and she saw a group of kids. She recognized a few of them from Hollow Bastion. They must be the Resistance against The Empire. She quickly turned to Cerden, looking at him. He had a rather serious look on his face, [color=darkorchid][b]“so you want to tell me what this is about?”[/b][/color] She asked him. [color=sienna][b]“You’ll see,”[/b][/color] was all he said. Flora made a noise of slight annoyance, but she trusted Cerden. Waiting for the perfect chance, Cerden noticed that there was someone else coming up to them. It was someone he didn’t recognize. However, he and Flora were close enough to hear what she was saying, but it wasn’t much. All he heard was the new person telling them that what just happened was a victory. Cerden laughed lowly at that, smiling somewhat. And then Cerden heard the mention about some place called the Caribbean. [color=sienna][b]“That’s our cue.”[/b][/color] Cerden said. He didn’t wait for Flora to respond. He walked on over to the group of kids with a wave of the hand and a half smile. [color=sienna][b]“Yo, remember me?”[/b][/color] Cerden asked as he approached the group. [color=sienna][b]“I overheard you lot talking,”[/b][/color] Cerden wasn’t lying. Though, it was more like eavesdropping on their conversation. [color=sienna][b]“Anyways, I--” Flora punched Cerden in the arm, “--I mean [I]we[/I] would like to come if that’s okay.”[/b][/color] Cerden somewhat asked. His tone was as laidback and calm as it would get in this situation. [hr] [center][h2]Shinto - Trident Warship[/h2][/center][hr] [color=fff79a][b]“I wonder what’s going on.”[/b][/color] Shinto had a lot of time to think when he was left alone after Caleb left. He had been counting and it was at least eight hours since all of that shit occurred. In that time, he was thinking back to the good old days when he, Flora, Cerden, Nomis, Dominic, Jaakuna, and Sarah were all still apart of the Dactyl Program all those years ago. He remembered back to how simpler things were then and how all of them were the best of friends. Even though Shinto didn’t care for Jaakuna all that much, he still looked up to the dumbass and even cared for him in his own special way. Yes, those were the good old days. [color=fff79a][b]“And now I’m here, a prisoner.”[/b][/color] Shinto loved the irony in all of that. As Shinto in all of the boredom that was present hummed a casual tune, he heard an explosion of some kind. Shortly thereafter, he felt the ship rumble and various items and tool in the room that he was in fell from the shelves that they were on and those very shelves came off their hinges. All Shinto could do as he saw everything become affected by the ship’s sudden movement was look. He was still restrained to the table-like prison cell he was on, so he couldn’t really do much. Silently cursing himself, Shinto sighed and then he felt something and this time it was more than just the rumbling in the room. It was sinister, and yet…[color=fff79a][b]”I know this feeling and there’s two of them.” [/b][/color]Shinto said as he tried to fixate where exactly on the ship that feeling was coming from. “It’s on this level, I know that for sure.” Shinto was at least narrowing the location of them. [color=fff79a][b]“GOT IT!”[/b][/color] Shinto had found them. He closed his eyes and felt out the feeling. It was a power familiar to him, but it was also something that was different. It was a good kind of different, though. He would reach out nonetheless, [color=fff79a][b]“Hello? If you can hear me, say something?” [/b][/color]Shinto said, sending out words via telepathy. [color=fff79a][b]“Listen, I don’t know what happened to get people like you on here, but it must mean that something big happened on Agrabah. Regardless, you seem to be on the same floor I am and I assume something happened to the ship as well since the power seemed to be out or something.”[/b][/color] Shinto had to get what he was going to say out before he ran out of time, [color=fff79a][b]“anyways, I have a feeling that Nomis and his crazy machines might be coming for you first if I’m right in thinking who you two are. So, here’s what you need to do. Leave your room, take a right, and run down the hall until you pass seven hallways. There is a door on the left. Take it and free me. I know this ship and I can help us escape.” [/b][/color]Shinto said, [color=fff79a][b]“oh and you better hurry. Odds are is you two only have one minute until Nomis arrives. So, haste is encouraged.”[/b][/color] [hr] [center][h2]Dominic - Trident Warship[/h2][/center][hr] [color=crimson][b]“That was not fun.”[/b][/color] Dominic was free from the machine that had him in its clutches. It was at the cost of most of his energy reserves though. Combined with what was drained of him after the pasty, torturer had his fun, Dominic felt that he had enough to at least defend himself and zip through any distance shorter than two hundred miles. After that little shakedown with the ship, he knew that anywhere but here would be best for him. [color=crimson][b]“I just hope Shin is okay.”[/b][/color]
