[b]Julia[/b] Julia looked to Ming and was about to answer when Angela answered for her. She gave a small and half listened as they walked through the forest. Though something about the forest was different but she couldn't put her finger on it. Every so often she'd answer Angela with a simple 'yes' but there was something she needed to correct. "When I said files, I meant physical copies. Like books or scrolls. Whenever a child is born a book is magically created and from there it writes itself with magic from ever on. It is my job as Liberian to check any new files that has been created, and check the list of those disappeared and forgotten every day and honestly I don't know how long we've got untiln the cracks reach us, neither do I know what's causing it. For supplies, I can summon anything that anyone needs you just need to tell me what you want. Anything I can't summon we can buy. For home base, we will be on the move constantly, so we will have to settle for roaming camps. Lastly I can send yo..." She stopped herself and let out a sigh not saying another word. Besides something was very off here in this forest. The once so peaceful forest made her feel on edge, like something was watching her. It was then that she stopped completely and held out her hand, creating a purple forcefield to stop the nine from going on any further. "Change of plans. We're going to visit the Guardian of the Forest, Rethynth. Stay on guard, there's something about this forest I cannot put my finger on." Her voice spoke with concern and urgentcy and with that the purple barrier disappear. She took a sharp left turn to go deeper into the forest. After a few minutes walk she came to a large tree that shot up for miles until it reached the clouds. This was the Tree of Life! Protecting it was a large green dragon.

"He knows me, so let me go in first." Slowly she walked to the dragon and spoke to him. "Rethynth I need to speak to you. Are you able to talk?" the dragon's eyes shot open and at that moment Julia fell back in fear. It was clear as day now. The eyes of the dragon were filled with hate and bloodlust. Something was affecting the guardian. Suddenly he roared out loudly and his warriors rose to the ground. Quickly Julia stood up and ran to the barrier. She turned to face the dragon before undoing it. "Do not kill the dragon! Whatever you do! He is connected to the Tree of Life, if he dies, the entire forest dies!" Now she shouted, this was an urgent matter that could not be dealt with a heavy hand and intent to kill. This was a very serious and delicate situation.

So she read all their files, physical copies, self writing books, there must be hundreds in there and with her being the liberian she must of read quite a lot. She then heard her when she heard that she could send them back and clenched her fist. "So you CAN send us back if you wanted?" However she completely ignored her, something was clearly on her mind. She sighed, she wouldn't go back anyway. She had no choice to help it was either that or everyone and everything dies. She couldn't allow that. It was then that she walked into a purple barrier and Julia began to speak. Her voice was filled with concern and urgentcy, it made her grab her sword. She knew there was something bothering the little girl. Cautiously she walked with her, her eyes now open and ready for danger. When they stopped again they were at a huge tree with a dragon protecting it. Before Julia said anything she spoke. "Tree of Life I presume? If it dies, all life in the forest dies." Again Julia said nothing at first, after a minute had passed she spoke again and created another barrier. She went to speak to the dragon alone but the moment it awoke Ming pulled her sword out completely. She knew that look in it's eye and Julia's reaction was all she needed to know that something was very wrong. She heard Julia say not to kill the dragon and nodded. Then looked to the minions it summoned. "What's causing this? I presume the rips in reality, but how?" There was no answer for the moment. The barrier was done and now it was a fight. It seemed it wasn't all going to be easy, of course, she knew that. With that she called out loudly. "Samurai Art: Cutting Wind!" Her sword glowed brightly as she slashed one of the warriors. As she did her sword created a wind slash cutting three others apart. She gave a small smile before the dragon created the four warriors that were destroyed. This battle was going to take a while!
