Ash's smile became visibly smaller at the news that Sanders was currently preoccupied with what sounded like some pretty important business. While she was somewhat glad that she didn't have to tell him anything yet then, she also didn't want to put it off any longer. Although she was a little surprised that Sanders was meeting with the Phoenix Wingers, the guild master in particular. Like Indigo said, she had come as an observer to the games and as someone who had been raised in a very tense environment she could generally notice such things. They stuck out like a sore thumb to her.
So she was slightly confused by Sanders going with them. Were they trying to smooth things over or something? Surely with how tense it was it wasn't going to be that easy....Ash knows that if she was in their shoes, she just flat out wouldn't forgive them.
[color=9e0b0f]"I..see..."[/color] Ash mumbled somewhat quietly and thoughtfully. She wasn't too sure how long this how thing would take either...maybe Ash should just speak with one of the Generals? Afterall she was talking with one right now, so it's not like she would have to go searching for one.
Realising she was just standing there, thoughtfully staring at the ground for god knows how long she quickly shook her head. She needed to focus and stay on track. No tangents.
[color=9e0b0f]"Indi-I mean General, you...What do you think of second chances at life? Does someone whose fire was once fueled by sins, even if they felt like they had little choice in the matter, do...do they still deserve a chance at redemption?"[/color] Uncertainty crept into Ash's voice as she spoke. She still wasn't a hundred percent sure she should talk with Indigo about this. Shouldn't Sanders know about this first? But it was too late now, she had started and didn't plan on quitting half-way through. [s]That just wasn't her ninja way.[/s]

Jasmine almost jumped out of her skin when she felt Nidhogg tap her on the shoulder, letting out a loud, girlish squeal and in a comical fashion nearly fell off the bench. She only managed to stay on by throwing her hands out at the last moment to catch herself on the edge of the seat.
Now obviously she was very confused by what Nidhogg said next. Jackson? Wait. As in Jackson DuCarthy, the [i]man[/i] she had met a couple of days later during the whole incident when she not only got separated from Cody but also somehow caught up in some big wizard fight....was now a young girl who looked not much older than herself?
Magic was a strange thing. But Jasmine was trying to reason that surely even it couldn't do this...surely not.
[color=f49ac2]"M-Mr DuCarthy?"[/color] Jasmine was trying to work out why anyone would bother tricking her. After all she wasn't that overly important, at least of what she knew anyway, so it's not like some girl would go out of her way to say she was someone else right? The mentioning of the Shadow Creatures was also, while not overly specific, was something which most people wouldn't known about as well. Or at least, that her and Nidhogg were involved somewhat anyway.
[color=f49ac2]"H-how? Weren't you...umm....a man?"[/color]

Cody hadn't been watching where he was going. One moment he was in the busy, bustling streets of the capital next he found himself in an isolated alleyway. Well. This was never a good sign, so maybe he should leave before triggering-too late.
[color=red]"Poor, poor little boy..."[/color] A voice rang out clearly like silk, dark and intoxicatingly sweet and calming.
Turning around sharply as the voice called out to him, his hand immediately flew to where the sword on his hip was supposed to be strapped...except he had left it in his room. Right..next to his armor. He had planned to stay out of trouble and thought that carrying a sword around mightn't be a good way to do that. Man was he regretting that decision already. At least he had his magic...for what that was worth.
[color=red]"Did someone break your heart? A girl...? Or maybe someone took your little love away from you...?"[/color] Cody twitched slightly at the teasing tone to her voice. Just who was this woman and why the hell did she care? And what did she find so funny?
[color=ed1c24][b]"I have no idea what you're talking about."[/b][/color] Cody's fists were clenched tightly at his side at the woman's accusations. Love? He didn't love Amaya...he barely knew her. They had met only a few days ago after all, nowhere near enough time for a relationship to form surely.
The woman had been mostly hidden in the shadows now but walked out for Cody to see, her black and white dress swishing about her thighs while adding [color=red]"If only you could pay them back, the ones who hurt you... But alas, there is nothing."[/color] 
Akai lifted her pale hands to brush the hood from her head, revealing her soft and deceptively innocent face underneath. [color=red]"Of course, you could use my way..."[/color]

Cody didn't seemed convinced by her words that much. In fact, he was very much on guard after what had happened over the previous days. This woman gave Cody a bad feeling. Her words sounded...[i]too[/i] sweet. Her words seemed to have a resonating effect however....and it wasn't magical based from what Cody could sense. It was almost as if she was talking directly to his torn up soul right now.
[color=ed1c24][b]"I-I told you already. You're mistaken."[/b][/color] Cody directed his gaze elsewhere, a blush forming on his cheeks as he continued to adamantly refuse her claims. Though it was obvious he was lying.
He also didn't want to make eye contact with this woman for some reason. She made him feel uneasy. What was it about her? He couldn't quite place his finger on it.
[color=ed1c24][b]"Just state what business you have or go away. I'm not in the mood."[/b][/color]

Angela was pretty bummed out. The end to the games was so anticlimactic...then again she hadn't watched much of the games in the end either, so she was beyond disappointed with how little of the games she saw. Wandering the streets byself wasn't really a wise move on her part either, but she didn't overly care. Arthur was supposed to be keeping an eye on the girl while Jessica and James recovered from their injuries with Manami and Shiro, but she had given him the old flaming pumpkin to the back of the head and slipped away while he frantically tried to put out the fire which resulted on him.
Worked every time.
That was when, out of the corner of her eye she saw [i]him[/i]. She could spot him, like pretty much any other member of the guild, from a mile away. Her speed was out of this world as she ran over and jumped on Indigo's back now, all the while shouting.
[color=f26522]"Indiiiiiiiigooooooo!"[/color] The young girl wrapped her arms around the neck of the wizard double her age, a large toothy grin on her face. 
Yes Indigo would do nicely to play with! He knew how to make things fun!
