It was a relatively easy choice which door she wanted to go through in the end. While a door to Miso City seemed nice and all, it was too familiar of a place to be a real adventure. Thus, Rose stepped through the door to darkness with the rest of the group, the stars in the sky leading them forward to a bright new beginning. A dude not unlike the Mysterious Dude appeared, yet this particular mysterious dude was not nearly as fun looking as the Mysterious Dude from earlier. In fact they seemed quite intent on fighting the group, which was fine by Rose in the end. You can't have an adventure without a hint of danger after all!

He struck Kanbaru with lightning speed, yet Umi was already on top of him as she tried pull his legs out from under him to get him into the dirt. Rose readied herself quickly, muscle memory she shouldn't possess moving her into a fencing stance as she instinctively moved in front of their Bard, who had just taunted the man in an attempt to get him away from Kanbaru. [color=#a94064]"Alright then, lets get this show on the road! Jolt!"[/color] She thrust her rapier towards the man in black, despite being nowhere near him whatsoever. Yet somehow she knew this was the right thing to do, as a bolt of red lightning erupted from the tip of her sword and arced towards the figure, seemingly homing in on him as Rose already prepared her next action. Mana surged within her as she focused her attention on Kanbaru, the initial casting sending her systems into overdrive as she cast yet another spell immediately. [color=#a94064]"Petal!"[/color]

Her dagger flashed through the air before bursting into a shower of rose petals above Kanbaru, yet she reached behind her and drew another dagger from seemingly nowhere as far as Akiko could tell, being right behind Rose and all. [color=#a94064]"Whoo, that was thrilling! Looks like it's two at a time though, can't throw out spells as quickly as I'd like."[/color] She kept her eyes focused on the hooded man to see what he would do next, on guard in case he pulled another disappearing act to try and attack her or Akiko.
