Drake nodded at Esther, glad that Leonce had helped break the silence. He had begun panicing on how to start conversation, as he never had to do much in the ways of social interaction before. **"Thank you for the introduction,Leonce, and it is a pleasure to meet you Esther. I hope that the rest of our stay here is at least marginally better than our first day has been."** He took a moment to glance at his right arm, where he had scratched the name of the Spartan who had sacrificed themselves for them. **"As for lunch, I do second the motion, though locating the mess might be some what hard to do. So, until we find it, take some candy to tide you over."** He reached into his pockets to pull out the candy he had taken from Lorenzo's stash, holding them out with both of his hands. **"Take what you like,but not too much of it mind you, but make sure to make it last, as we don't when we might see such delicacies again, if ever."**

Have you learned nothing man! You just shouldn't say stuff like that.

**Korrigan and Shade, Lugere, Nouvelle** Korrigan laughed as Sophia gave him a hug, glad that she was glad to see him. He was about to amswer her question for Shade, when Neva suddenly tried to kill some random guy on the street. While Sophia managed to calm him down, Korrigan felt a great onrush of disapproving anger from Shade. The legendary expected a certain amount of maturity and composure from most legendaries, something Nva never seemed to be good at when Sophia was around. **_So, this is how the mighty Articuno acts when a youngling like that tosses a pebble in its general direction. Though what should one expect from an one as unrefined and childish as yourself._** Shade was using his general telekinesis, making sure everyone good hear what he was saying to the Legendary Freeze pokemon, **_You bring shame and disgrace to other legendaries with your churlish and immature actions, and likely the same to dear Sophia here. And look at the trouble you ave wrought as all of these guards see you, not as an example of how one should act, but a nuisance that they wish to be gone from their city. Truly, you should practice greater control over your emotions, Neva, before it becomes the death of you._** With that, Shade turned his attention to Milly and Sophia. **_It is a pleasure to meet you again Sophia, and I believe this may be are first meeting Milly Cheviot, though do correct me if I'm wrong. I've been alive for so long, it gets hard to keep everything straight up in the attic, and my master Korrigan doesn't help with hi inability to ay attention to even the smallest details in search for the next thrill to experience._** At that, Shade let out a sigh, shaking his head, **_I don't know what I going to do with him, his recklessness is going to give me grey feathers at this rate._** Korrigan, having decided to let Shade speak rather then attempt to quiet him and cause an even bigger ruckus, suddenly walked up to the Articuno, ignoring the guards as if they weren't even there. Staring at the bird for a second, he turned to Shade with a raised eye. "Shade, I don't think you give Neva enough credit, I think that he can control himself just fine, and I'll show you. I'm going to pet him, and he'll let me do it because he knows if he kills me, It'll make Sophia very, very sad, which he wouldn't like in the slightest. So if you don't mind." Before anyone could stop hi, he quickly reached out and placed his hand on one of Neva's wings, taking a second to marvel at their softness. **John Flares and Axia, Ayero, Road to Hiden** John chuckled a little as Corvianna introduced herself, she really was one of the most interesting nobles he ever had the pleasure to meet. His hand twitched as he thought about how great it would be to fight her, not a spar as had been done with Claire, but a fight, her facing him, Kyo facing Axia, blood every where, adrenaline flowing through every vein in his body as he struck at her again, and again and again and again an- _'No, John get control in of yourself, you contol the madness, the madness doesn't control you.'_ _'That's a dirty lie, and you know it.'_ _'Okay, I know, but still, you got to reign it in, we can't take on two legendary pokemon, and three strangers at the same time, evne of Axia wasn't injured by now, so get a grip.'_ John took a breath to calm himself, before he deemed himself stable enough to speak to Corvianna again, albeit with a semi-crazed smirk on his face as he couldn't completely contained his bloodlust. His gauntleted hands were gripping his arms fairly tightly, a means of restraining himself physically and mentally. "I must say, for one of the King's Guard, you seem rather unrefined, that is, until you speak to Lady Terrane. Raises questions in some minds, but lets set that matter to the side for now, as it's no business of mind what you personal taste may be. Instead, I feel to be missing something about your Kyogre their. How in the bloody blazes does the devil fly. It's been bugging me since you arrived, but how the hell does fly, and how the hell can it breathe with no water around."

Cruor was enjoying his peace and quiet, when he heard knocking on his door. Getting up, he opened the door to see Nova outside, a rather large bruise forming on his face. He knew what had happened before the boy had a chance to speak. "Natasha went out alone again, and you tried to stop her." It wasn't a question. "I tried my best,but she hit me in the face with a bat when I said I'd tell! Where the hell did she even get a bat!" "I don't know, can't say I care, and it certainly won't help her when I come time for her to face her punishment. Why can't she just listen to me for five seconds." Cruor sighed, before he reached for his white reaper jacket and put it on, bringing the hood over his face to hide it from view. "I'll be back shortly Nova, so stay here and draw me up something nice while your at it, maybe a phoenix or something else of a mystical nature." Cruor gave a wave, before running out of the tunnel, focusing his senses so that he could filter out Natasha's melody from the cacophony of pounding bets and whispers of humanity. **Meanwhile** Natasha was currently watching a man root through the garbage, wondering how to approach him. She had seen him earlier, summoning that creature of shadow and garbage, and knew that theytcould really use someone like that in the Reapers. But she wasn't sure if he was safe to approach, or even be interested. No, she had to toughen up, Scorn would be able to convince this guy easy, or at least make sure he knew his place. She could do this. Natasha walked up behind the man, clearing her throat to get his attention. "Hello mister, do you need anything?" She said in her best innocent voice, smiling on the inside as she thought of her devious plan. First, help him out, then keep doing it until he is indebted to me, finally, use debts to make him join the reapers. The plan was foolproof and she gave her self a mental pat on the back for thinking of it.

**John and Axia, Ayero, Road to Hiden** John chuckled a little at the desert man comment, shaking his head a bit to roughly in denial. He was starting to lose his cool, that battle had hyped him up a lot more than he had thought it would. "Well, that oblivious blonde one is Claire Terrane, head of House Terrane, and the drooling lady pirate is not known to me, only thing I know is that she's an Espada since Kyogre is their guardian pokemon. And I," He said pointing at himself with a crooked smile, "am John Flares, a knight in service to a Baron who serves the Terranes, as well as a formal monk of the Heatran Monastery, or was it a Temple. The fainted Haxorus over their is my partner Axia, and I do need to get her some medical attention soon, for you see, got into a little scuffle with the Terrane girl, but nobody got hurt to badly so no hard feelings. Anyway, what be your name stranger, can't properly introduce you with out that, and you seemed to be rightly educated, are you a traveling scholar of some sort." As John spoke, his eyes and fingers began to twitch randomly, sometimes violently, and yet he continued on like he didn't even notice it. He probably didn't.

"Long enough to see that you and who ever was on the other end were having quite the argument." Raijin said, staying quiet for a bit as he formulated his response a bit more. "Look Cynth, If you don't want to talk about what ever going on IRL, then I won't pry, just know that everyone is here for you if you need a shoulder to cry on, a person to listen to your worries, someone for you to just vent your emotions at, we'll be their for you. So don't get all soft and embarrassed on me now, O fearless leader and drill sergent." Raijin's then started marching aroun in a much exaggerated army march, speaking in a barking tone way above the necessary volume. "The troops need hard, stict discipline to whip them into shape, and someone they can count on to lead in to them battle! And in my humble opinion, I believe you to be the best canidate for the position." He came to a stop in front of Cynthia, his arm above his head in salute. "So, do you accept your position, Madame Drill Sergent Cynthia, ma'am."

Raijin reached into his inventory and pulled out another sack of coins, the rest of his savings to be exact. "Here's the rest of my savings, about 50 gold coins. I'm sure that'll be enough to get us a good starting amount of supplies, maybe even a little extra. Now be in your way, Lil' firecracker, and make sure you keep Void in your sights, okay." He waved to Cherry, then quickly walked into,an alleyway next to the store, already punching in the number. He waited for a while, before a window opened up showing his sister. He could tell from her red eyes and then tear streaks that ran down her face that shenhad heard then news. He had changed the settings so that when he called his sister, she would see his actual face instead of his avatar's. "H-hey sis, guess you heard the neww, huh." He saud rather lamely, unavle to look his sister in the eyes. "Jason, ohmygodi'msogladyourokayithoughtihadlostyoyandi'dnevergettoseeyouagainand-" "Hey, easy there Valerie, take a breath. As you can see I'm fine, and I will continue to be fine, so don't worry, okay. Besides, I bet now your happy you didn't get the game, right?" His sister, having almost nothing to do for a majority of her day, was an avid gamer andnwas extremely jealous when he had gotten Paradise for his birthday, and didn't stop pouting until Dad had promised to do the same for her. It was going to be her birthday in about a week, and it had been all she had been talking about forthe past three. Now, he figured she would want nothing to do with it. "That isn't funny Jason, and pleasw be careful okay. Theu are going to be bringing you to the hospital, at least thats what I overheard the doctors saying. But please promise me that whatever you do, you'll come back home, okay." Valerie's eyes shone as tears began to gather again. "I promise, so you need to focus on getting better, bye." Jason quickly ended the call, sitting down for a second and letting himself catch his breath, to steady himself in the now. He was not Jason, he was Raijinslayer. He was not Jason, he was Raijinslayer *I* am not Jason, I am Raijinslayer *I* am not Jason, I am Raijin. He repeated this mantra in his mind, and would continue to do so until Cherry came out of the store.

**Korrigan and Shade, Nouvelle, interacting with Sophia, Milly, and Zaegar** Korrigann was currently untying the women who had been taken captive, ignoring their frightened looks. He was used to such looks, as his appearance was rather unnerving to those who weren't used to it, basically almost everyone. The fact that he had also just disemboweled and decapitated several men in front of them with the ease one would use to gut a cow, so that could also be a factor. To be honest, it wasn't hard to do when your opponents had consumed enough mead and rum to drop a mamoswine. Once they were all free, he escorted them towards the town of Nouvelle. Luckily, nothing attacked them while they were walking through, probably because Shade was giving off an a psychic signal of 'come to close, and you'll die' to every thing that came close. They soon made it to the town, where he handed over the women tomthe local guard, letting them know that their bandit problem was over. As he walked through the town, he noticed something near the center, an Articuno, which meant one thing, and one thing only. He smiled as he gave a telepathic message to Shade, then began to sink into his own shadow. A second later, he popped out of Sophia's shadow with a smile on his face. "Hello Sophia, how are you doing and what are you doing in Nouvelle?" From behind Neva,a large shadow began to rise from Neva's shadow. It moved towards the edge of the platform, and its form coalesced into Shade in all of his glory. He gave Neva and Mel a nod to show that he acknowledges their presence, but then he got distracted by how his plumage seemed to be slightly out of place. He immediately began to preen himself, not wanting to look disheveled infront of other people.

Hey, should I continue on with Korrigan now, or wait another day for Charak to post, cause I really want to get Korrigan moving again.

and it's awesome!!!!!! Could you make me one, maybe, probably, if you don't mind, please.
