[@PaulHaynek] [quote]"Everybody, watch out!"[/quote] [color=a187be]"Wait, was that Tal-ACK! The hell!?"[/color], exclaimed Kira as she, along with her companions, were caught in the middle of several smoke bomb explosions, the area soon becoming clouded and difficult to see through. A brief scuffle was heard from Nero, but no one could do anything due to the lack of vision. So, wanting to clear the air... [color=a187be][i]"Wind Art: Cloudburst!"[/i][/color] ...Kira used her wind magic to create an air shockwave, not enough to blow everyone off their feet, but more than enough to disperse the smoke clouds around them. [color=a187be]"Everyone good?"[/color], she asked, checking on her guildmates. She noticed that Nero was now missing. [color=a187be]"Just what the hell was that?"[/color] [quote]"Damn it, I was too late!" Talia arrived at the scene. "Sorry for disappearing on you guys, but I saw some suspicious behavior from the Kikimora contestant and had to secretly track her down. I found out that she stole the prize for the cooking competition, thatnooneseemedtohavenoticed, and then was gone for a while before here we are."[/quote] [color=a187be]"Seriously!?"[/color], the young Beelzebub replied, shocked. Of all the mamono here, she didn't even think the Kikimora would be the one to doing anything that can cause a stir, let alone cause trouble. [color=a187be]"It's just a cooking contest! Why go through this much effort!?"[/color] [quote]"Whatever her plan is, it seems to involve kidnapping Sir Nero." Neil voiced his thoughts. "Where do you think they've gone?" "Since we are witnesses to her deeds, she would probably attempt to leave Boreal Port as soon as possible. We can go to the town's entrance and catch her there." Talia said. "Although, I'm not sure if she would actually be there. Do you guys think we should split up?" "We also haven't reached our other members yet. Someone should go and tell them about this so we can all work together." Neil suggested.[/quote] [@Stern Algorithm] [@Restalaan] (YNG) [@13org] (ADA) [color=a187be]"I'll go find the others. I'm the fastest one here anyway. You guys worry about getting to the entrance and cutting that Kikimora off. I should probably find Bart as well, let him know what's going on."[/color], the flygirl quickly chimed in, seeing the situation take a turn for the serious. Not wasting anytime to even hear responses, Kira quickly took to the skies to inform the other guild members. [@13org] (FYR) The first stop Kira made was at the archery range where Freyr, Hailey and Sir Reed went off to for the Target Contest. However, as she came in to hover near them, she could see that the rabbit man and Siren were in the middle of a rather peculiar conversation, with the rugged knight standing off rather awkwardly. [color=a187be]"Errr, am I interrupting something? You know what, on second thought, that's not important right now. One of the contestants of the cooking contest has been kidnapped!"[/color], Kira quickly informed the trio, cutting to the chase.
