The cold shutter of footsteps shook the whole land around the forest. Soldiers marched, and moved forward...but it became soon quick to Atalante that they weren't alive. Skeletons marching by the droves through the dead trees, and forests armed with crudely made weapons that accentuated the evil aura the permeated the air around them. Almost a horde but not enough came marching forward towards her at the lead a man in a long brown cloak riding a black horse, and wielding a sword. Too make things worse a young girl's voice rang out of the nearby trees but was clearly distorted, [color=fff200]"You know you REALLY should've guessed something was up about the grey trees but hey I'm not one to judge the almighty black faction right?"[/color] the cocky girl's voice rang as the tree Atalante's foot touched down on broke, and the roots on some of the trees sprung from the ground in an attempt to attack her. Not all of the trees attacked just the ones in the immediate vicinity of rider. Rider's luck wasn't any better as the undead army's backline showered 'Perseus's' area with a shower of boney arrows. ---- Just as those contemplating on the west side of the forest began to move forward there was a suddenly sharp whistle from the forest as a group of wild wolves came out backed by a couple dozen skeleton warriors garbed in black armor, and led by a strange sight. A dark haired woman with tanned skin, and bulging muscles. She wore a tight fit set of early age east asian armor, and held a spear in her hands. Though one could not see her eyes due to the darkness she made no move to hide themselves, and led their troops from the front. The spear was a massive, and the red cap on top of the servant's head fluttered in the breeze, they raised their spear towards the Red Faction members in front of them. They had came through the path opposite to that Berserker had taken. [color=f26522]"Know me Members of Black Faction a Tiger General like myself needs not fear worms like you! I've come to engage you all on behalf of Red Faction! I am Lancer of Red! I will be your doom as a warrior of the heavens!"[/color] Lancer said pointing their spear forward still. Despite the size, and apparent shape of the curved, and intricately made spear the woman held it without any difficulty. The small army at their back made no moves. ---- The path of destruction Berserker carved was quite a large one as he stormed through the forest. As he made is way through the trees attempted to stop him roots, and branches of some of the small trees tried to swing at him. However it wasn't until a well placed arrow coming from the center of the forest in front of Berserker that something stopped him. The arrow hit with the power of a well placed hammer shot. Whoever Red Archer was their shots were taken by a man, or woman of sufficient power. However his armor took the damage for the most part. Despite this a man in the skin of wolves came out. He held a red spear in his hands, and what little armor he had on was dented, and crudely held together. The enemy berserker shouted as he charged at Black Berserker his spear in hand. --- [color=aba000]"Well then what do we have here lad? It seems we have a couple guests."[/color] Anderson stated as he looked forward he pulled out a sizable black key from his jacket as an group of strange chimera like animals approached Lancer who quickly chanted a rune of fire, and set ablaze the land in front of them. However it was not a moment later did Anderson knock an arrow shot away...or attempted to as the black key in his hand shattered instantly on contact, and the next moment scrapped Lancer's side barely missing her. [color=fff200]"Well that's disheartening...I'll take the small fry."[/color] Anderson grumbled as he pulled out two more black keys, and charged through the fire towards the chimera in front of him. Lancer meanwhile took a chance to look at a young man with a well made blade, and a young woman in red armor stepping out from the forest's borderlines. [color=8882be]"Those two aren't servants..."[/color] grumbled Lancer, and Leon looked forward taking the sights in, and using his intuition as a master gauged that those two weren't servants indeed...but they seemed to be confident. The boy in blue finery with some armor moved forward, and raised his blade. [color=0072bc]"I am a master of the Red Faction I challenge Lancer of Black to a fight."[/color] Leon looked at Lancer who nodded, and moved forward. [color=8882be]"An incredibly foolish challenge but I accept prepare for death Red Master."[/color] The boy held himself at the defense and that was when Leon noticed the strong mana coming from the boy...he was being empowered by something. He hoped this wasn't a trap...but it obviously was.
