Shades of Twilight.

[princess2708]

Welcome to Valencia
A world where humans are no more then slaves to the nobility, and the land is ruled by creatures long thought to be nothing more then myths and legends. However it is in this dark era that a war is slowly beginning to form. As more people join the resistance which calls itself Twilight, it will soon become apparent that battle lines have been drawn between the powers that be and those who would change the current state of Valencia.
The only question is, which side will you choose?

RULES:
1.)No god-modding
2.)Romance is fine and you can go beyond kissing, but don't describe everything in extreme detail please.
3.)You can have as many characters as you wish.
4.)We need both male and female characters. You don't have to be both, but if you wish to do so then by all means feel free.
5.)And most importantly, HAVE FUN!

IMPORTANT! (please read)
I need someone, or two different people, to play the two leaders. One is the leader of the nobility, which they call their Emperor, and the second is the leader of Twilight. Below is what you need to have in your profile (Which isn't much).

TAKEN! Nobility-Called the Emperor by those of lower rank, currently cannot be human but other then that you have free reign.

Twilight-Can be any race but must have some connection to the past leader of Twilight (Ryvia's father)! Doesn't matter what kind of connection though, just make sure you have something there.

[princess2708]

Name: Ryvia
Age: 18
Race: Human
Appearance: http://i74.photobucket.com/albums/i250/SB2708/normal_jmgnffdfr.jpg
Alliance: Twilight
Personality: Often comes off as a bit shy and introverted, Ryvia is actually much tougher then she looks. Though her blindness is a bit of a drawback, she has learned to compensate for her loss of sight and often uses it to her advantage as many people wouldn't suspect a 'weak blind girl' to be even worth their time. However, Ryvia is actually very capable of looking out for herself and knows how to take on the persona of a loyal slave when in reality she is far from it. Overall she can be a bit manipulative towards enemies, but to friends and family she is one of the most loyal people in Valencia. She would fight to the death for anyone she cared about, and puts their well being far above her own personal safety. Even if that does tend to get her in trouble more times then she'd like.

Bio: Daughter of the past leader of Twilight, Ryvia grew up as a slave but secretly worked with her father to spread the word about the then small resistance. True it was risky but Ryvia had one advantage that made her look far less guilty then she really was, she was born blind. Because of her blindness her master never thought twice of her possibly being involved with Twilight, but that all changed the night her father was captured.
Once it was discovered that he was the leader of Twilight, he was immediately executed for his treachery and Ryvia was also captured. Now realizing how dangerous this girl really was she was locked away deep within her master's palace and brutally punished for her refusal to tell who was involved with Twilight. However, she is determined to never reveal anything to anyone even if doing so would be her only means of escaping her prison.

__________________________________________________ _____

Ryvia sat in her small cell, staring at nothing in particular as her dark eyes remained fixed on the opposite wall. Not that she could see the wall, but it helped to show her indifference to everything around her and to the endless questioning that took place almost every day. Anyone would think that they'd give up by now considering she'd told the guards nothing, but if there was one thing Ryvia knew it was that they wouldn't give up until she told them what they wanted.
And that was one thing she wasn't about to do.

[Naruto_rulz]

Ok

Dragon was just walking minding his own business

[Ashley_loves_Kurama]

Ashley was in a tree like always reading a magna book about Naruto.


((I'm overly obsessed with that show thanx to Naruto_rulz))

[Animeboo]

"So, does this cover it?" asked the cloaked man. Ichigo stood in the dark, moist allyway, waiting for the man to hand her the money. As he said tht, he took a small bag out.
"How much is in there?" asked Ichigo. She waved her head in the direction of the bag, her sword clinging to her side.
"About 17 gold peices... I'm very poor and I-"
"Save it old man," she gestured her hand in his face, interrupting him, "If that's all you have, then don't waste my time." the man stood there, stuttering. "I've got better things to do," and with that she jumped up onto a roof, using her strong and muscular legs to push herself up, she turned to the scared man and yelled down, "By the way," she flipped her hand to her hip, "Who did you want me to assassinate?"
"Horoshi Souma..." mumbled the man, "not that it matters."
Horoshi Souma! He wants me to kill the friggen' Emporor of the Twilights! Ichigo gave a small disbeleiving laugh.
"You're crazy old man, do you know who that guy is?" Ichigo thought for a second, Psh, 17 gold... with that she rushed away, jumping above the rooftops, swiftly but silently.

[princess2708]

Ryvia bit back a shriek as another slap landed across her face.
"You'd better talk wench! Or we'll make life more of a living hell for you then it already is." Yelled the guard as he roughly grabbed Ryvia's arm and pulled her to her feet. "You can beat me all you want but you'll never get a word out of me!" Hissed Ryvia as she spit some blood out of her mouth, and this time she felt her body hit the wall as the guard threw her down. "Well I gave you the chance, but I guess you're going to play stubborn." The dangerous tone of the guards voice gave Ryvia a clue as to what was coming, and she braced herself as she felt the familiar sting of a whip cut across her body.

[Tetsanosuke]

No sign up thread.. Heh...

Name: Tetsanosuke Kirikami
Age: 9000 Years (Looks around 18)
Race: 75% Dragon God 25% Human.
Appearance:

He is a tall and slightly muscled being, his skin is a little pale and there are patches of silver scales about his body, one being the right side of his face. His whole left arm is scaled silver as well as his whole right leg and the scales from his arm round out fromhis shoulder over his chest halfway protecting his heart.

His eyes are sapphire blue and glowing, usually the glow depends on how he feels. He wears a blue kimono, though he has black slacks on his legs under it. At his waist is a crimson sash lined with chain, which holds his two of his many swords Arvalace and Destyn.

His hair is black and flowing, some of it hangs over his right eye.
Alliance: Nuetral
Personality: He always shows what emotion he feels unless something depended on him hiding his feelings. He is an honorable, yet kind and caring and deeply imaginative creature who loves life itself. He is stern when needed and though hard to anger he is a wrathbomb when so.

Bio: He was born 9000 years ago in a demension called the "Dragon Verse", his father was the Reigning Dragon God at the time and he had met a human woman. Gamjinosuke, Tet's father traveled with Vajura Yuka for a few years after coming to this world on the trail of a demon from the void.

They had a son, Nosuke who was half Dragon God and Half Human. and a thousand years later, After Gamjinosuke fused his blood into Yuka they had Tetsanosuke. Thus his 3/4 Dragon God blood.

Throughout his life he learned about his powers over Creation and Destruction. The power to Create anything and Destroy anything at his will. Throughout his adventures he made many friends, and though most died of old age he would honor them by living on keeping the peace.

More or less recently, Nosuke Died for the second time after being brought back to life, at that same time Gamjinosuke was murdered as well. Taking the essence of his Brother and father, and the power of the Forbidden Art called the "Omniessence", Tetsanosuke became the Successor to the throne in the Dragon Verse.

After events went by, he fell in love with an Elemental named Katomi Isaki on one chance day after sparring with a friend. Later on his home, the Dragon Verse was destroyed by Ragnarok, 'The end of everything' and his mother was near death. But with the power of his will, love, passion and friendship he was able to destroy the envoy and banish it's essence from existence.

Since then he had lived a quiet life with his love, and now he has set off to travel once more in this new land.

----------------------------------------------

Walking down a lone road, the dragon god could feel the dust of a new dawn approaching. This world was new to him and everything around him was fascinating. He couldn't help but gaze at the endless waves of tall blue grasses and fine orange trees. His sapphire blue eyes came upon a small city ahead, the clouds of smoke and smog filled the air about it and he wondered if anybody could breath there.

But he needed not to worry, he could just will it all way through a single whim, a mere thought. Inside he felt the warm silver power, the golden radiance fill him with an exhilarating burst of confidence and prowess. He felt a warm breeze hit his scales as he brought a hand from his drooping blue sleeve out over his eyes glowing sapphire radiance.

"This city... it needs my attention." He brought a foot forwards, his first step towards his new destiny in this brand new world filled with wonders. He could feel that breeze over his abs, as the kimono hug over only one shoulder as he stalked the beaten path approaching the city slowly.

[Naruto_rulz]

Dragon started to look for a happy place.

[Ashley_loves_Kurama]

Ashley saw Dragon and jumped down and walked over to him,"Do I know you?" Ashley saked him.

[Naruto_rulz]

" not that I Know of " dragon said looking confused.

[Ashley_loves_Kurama]

"I must be imagining things cause you look like one of my old friends."

[Naruto_rulz]

" wait is your name Ashley " Dragon said

[Ashley_loves_Kurama]

"Yeah it is why?"

[Naruto_rulz]

" cause i use to have a friend named that." dragon said looking at the ground " i lost her when i was abonded as a child"

[Ashley_loves_Kurama]

"Do you remember what she looks like?"

[Tetsanosuke]

OOC: Let me show you how to REALLY RP...

BIC:
While entering the city he noticed to people conversing somewhere, he knew not where they were on a count of them just existing out in the open. It seemed as though they were near a building and an ally meadow, but he hadn't a clue where they were off to and left them at that. He started further into the city to see a small ruckus, and instinctively he brought his right hand to his left side and from existence itself drew a golden burning beam blade.

He dashed into the fray, a small skirmish was about like a gang war. He would strike down each approaching warrior with a stunning blow from the saber, he hadn't intended on killing any of these people, only stop the commotion. He pulled out a golden feather from the air with the flick of his wrist, the feather shined out in it's brilliance as he held it up high.

"Stop this now!" He called out into the crowd before hurling the feather into the ground before him, creating a golden wave of force. The fighters all fell to the ground, stunned by the flash and the force of the action. He looked at them all with hids sapphire blue eyes flaring with power, and slowly stated;

"Stop this pointless fighting!"

They heard him, and afraid of what he could do they ran off into the shadows, Vampires and Angels alike. Tetsano could feel a sigh coming forth as he watched they run off. "Why must they fight? In the middle of this city as well..." He shook his head again and went off to find the nearest inn or tavern.

[Naruto_rulz]

" no it's been too long"

[Ashley_loves_Kurama]

"Was she a demon or a human?"

[Naruto_rulz]

" I can't remeber It's been 10 years since i seen her" dragon said softly.

[Ashley_loves_Kurama]

"I haven't seen my friend in 10 years either."

[Naruto_rulz]

" weird" dragon said looking up toward the sky

[Tetsanosuke]

OOC: . . . . . One sentence posts? Eh... this story isn't going anywhere. I'm dropping out. Good Luck all.

BIC:

Hearing a call from deep inside, Tetsano could feel the silver burning light of aura resonating true to the feeling. He turned about, his sapphire eyes flashing as he sighed.

"I should return... this place cannot be helped." He threw a hand forwards as if swiping at the air, and a hole opened up before him. He looked around at the city, the world around him before jumping into the hole.

The hole sealed up as he left that world, who knows if he'd return one day? But he had his own issues to deal with, and a family to raise back home.

[Ashley_loves_Kurama]

" weird" dragon said looking up toward the sky
"Your telling me....btw what's your name?"

[Strega]

((Can I join even though I'm a little late???))

[Animeboo]

This should be the right place.... thought Ichigo, looking at a small hut. She looked at the note again-
Dear Ichigo, the Assassin,
Don't be afraid just because I know you're an assassin without even meeting you. Of course this is all none of your buisness. So let's just say, that if you kill the man that lives in the small hut between Hellside Street and Heavenside Street, you'll get a handsom reward.... don't try to find me, I'll find you.
Signed,
A man with money
Ichigo sighed and looked at the street sign again, Heavenside and Hellside and this was the only house in between. She jumped off the roof she was standing on and landed on the ground swiftly. She slowly walked over to the front door of the house, making sure not to draw attention. I'm just a little half demon, going to visit her demon father.... wait, the guy never told me what race this dude is... o well.... She opened the door silently and saw a man sleeping on a cot.
This is too easy... you'd think a guy that had someone wanting to kill him would have more.... security... sh*t. suddenly the door slammed shut, a candle was lit and the man in the cot sprung up with a sword, along with two other men from behind the furniture.
"Don't move!" the man yelled, "You're under arrest for charges against the Nobility!"
Ichigo stopped moving, and sighed. She knew she could take down all three of these guys, but hen the whole nobility would be after her. She put down her weapons and raised her hands,
"A man with money... eh?"

[princess2708]

((Can I join even though I'm a little late???))


((Of course, this RPG stays open for characters! Oh and I love the KH Fan sig!))

[Naruto_rulz]

"sorry but i got to go" dragon said then disappearing.

[Ashley_loves_Kurama]

Ashlet just kicked the ground and sighed. 'That has to be Dragon! OMG I finally found him after 10 years ^_^ yay!'

[Naruto_rulz]

Dragon was running thourgh the desert and stoped on a giant cliff and layed down drifting off to sleep.

[Ashley_loves_Kurama]

Ashley sat back in the same tree and read more of her Naruto magna.

[Strega]

Name: Sora
Age: 19
Race: human
Appearance:http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c366/David_Billy_Hamster/art-anime-01.jpg
Alliance:Twilight
Personality: Not much of one
Bio: A slave to a cruel demon Sora joined Twilight as hopes of getting free. She's a skilled fighter, and can fix weapons easily. Her father told her tales of times before this and she fights in his memory. Her 'master' killed her parents after he found out about them being in Twilight, he sold her brother in hopes of crushing her strength. So far, it's failing, she's determined to find her brother and become free.

[Animeboo]

Ichigo winced as they threw her in the jail.
"Your crimes are punishable by death... unless you give us any information you have on the Twilight." said the gaurd.
"Psh, you're just gonna kill me anyway..." she said, then spit on the ground in front of the gaurd. He ran up to the bars, but another gaurd stopped him from reaching in and stranggling Ichigo.
"You will pay, you dirty mud person!" he spit back at her. Ichigo wondered to the back of the cell and sat on a bench. They had already taken her daggers, but she had more up her sleeves... er, non-sleeves...?
She looked over to the cell next to hers, and a girl ((Ryvia)) was getting wipped as they asked her, "What do you know?! Talk!" but she stood strong. Daaaaannnnmmmmm.... Ichigo leaned her head against the wall.

[Strega]

Sora wandered in the town, not wanting to return "home". 'Home.... That's not home. It's anything but home.....' She looked at the ground.

[princess2708]

Ichigo winced as they threw her in the jail.
"Your crimes are punishable by death... unless you give us any information you have on the Twilight." said the gaurd.
"Psh, you're just gonna kill me anyway..." she said, then spit on the ground in front of the gaurd. He ran up to the bars, but another gaurd stopped him from reaching in and stranggling Ichigo.

She looked over to the cell next to hers, and a girl ((Ryvia)) was getting wipped as they asked her, "What do you know?! Talk!" but she stood strong. Daaaaannnnmmmmm.... Ichigo leaned her head against the wall.


"It's no use, this brat isn't going to talk. She's as stubborn as her father was." Hissed the guard who had been interrogating, or rather torturing, Ryvia.
"Oh don't worry, not even she can take but so much torture. She'll talk eventually." Said another as he motioned for his comrade to follow him out of the cell.
"In your sick dreams I might!" spat out Ryvia once she was certain both the guards were out of earshot, but when she tried to move away from the wall that the guard slammed her against she hissed as pain shot through her back from the whip marks that she had been left with. "Damn....they keep this up and I'll have more scars then I already have!" Muttered Ryvia to herself.

That was when she heard another guard yelling at someone ((Ichigo)) in the cell next to hers, but she waited until she heard that guard leave with the others before taking the risk of talking.
"You're lucky you got off with just being yelled at, not even I was that fortunate." Said Ryvia as she turned her sightless gaze in the newcomer's direction.

"Lucky shmucky,I don't believe in luck. Never did me any good, just pure talent." Ichigo sighed looking at Ryvia. "Let me guess..... part of the twilight?"

[princess2708]

"Lucky shmucky,I don't believe in luck. Never did me any good, just pure talent." Ichigo sighed looking at Ryvia. "Let me guess..... part of the twilight?"

"Is it that obvious?" Asked Ryvia with a humorless laugh.
"But yes you would be correct, I am a member of Twilight. That's what landed me here in the first place, or rather my connections in Twilight."

[Animeboo]

"Is it that obvious?" Asked Ryvia with a humorless laugh.
"But yes you would be correct, I am a member of Twilight. That's what landed me here in the first place, or rather my connections in Twilight."
"hmmmm..." Ichigo nodded. She heard her stomach growl, but pushed her hunger back, Hey, I've been through worse....

[princess2708]

"hmmmm..." Ichigo nodded. She heard her stomach growl, but pushed her hunger back, Hey, I've been through worse....

"So what brings you here? As corrupt as those in power may be I do recall that they hardly ever throw someone here in the dungeons without good reason." Said Ryvia as she sat close to Ichigo's cell, while listening for any sounds that could signal the return of the guards.

[Naruto_rulz]

Dragon woke up still on the cliff " so let's see whats changed around here he said then disappering into the night sky.

[Animeboo]

"So what brings you here? As corrupt as those in power may be I do recall that they hardly ever throw someone here in the dungeons without good reason." Said Ryvia as she sat close to Ichigo's cell, while listening for any sounds that could signal the return of the guards.

"Aha...." muttered Ichigo, slightly wondering if she could trust this girl, "I... stole somthin'." she lied. Why tell someone in the twilight that you're a hired assassin? Ichigo didn't see why, but she was accusstomed to lying anyway, so she just sighed.

[princess2708]

"Aha...." muttered Ichigo, slightly wondering if she could trust this girl, "I... stole somthin'." she lied. Why tell someone in the twilight that you're a hired assassin? Ichigo didn't see why, but she was accusstomed to lying anyway, so she just sighed.

"You stole something? There's more to it then that isn't there?" Asked Ryvia, the inquisitive tone to her voice only proving that she really didn't believe Ichigo. At least that was one thing she excelled at and that was picking up on whether a person was being truthful or not, which often netted her an advantage she needed. Still there wasn't much use for it when you're locked up in a dungeon, but that didn't mean Ryvia couldn't still use her skills every now and then.

[Naruto_rulz]

Dragon was running near the jail compound that Ichigo was in and stoped right in front of a guard. " Hey guys remeber me" dragon said smiling " thats the guy with the 100000000000 rubee bounty on his head get'em." a guard said charging. Dragon started to run around the facilty making a giant tornado around the facilty " Catch me if you can suckers.

[Ashley_loves_Kurama]

Dragon woke up still on the cliff " so let's see whats changed around here he said then disappering into the night sky.

Ashley grumbled still looking for Dragon,"Dam.n it where is he?!?"

[Animeboo]

"You stole something? There's more to it then that isn't there?" Asked Ryvia, the inquisitive tone to her voice only proving that she really didn't believe Ichigo. At least that was one thing she excelled at and that was picking up on whether a person was being truthful or not, which often netted her an advantage she needed. Still there wasn't much use for it when you're locked up in a dungeon, but that didn't mean Ryvia couldn't still use her skills every now and then.
"Okay...." sighed Ichigo, "I assassinate people." she stated it as if it were the plainest thing in the world, "but, ya know, whatever pays the bills...." she then noticed the man ((dragon)) yell to the gaurds,
"What the hell? Who do you think that guy is? and 1000000000000!!! he must take his bragging rights very seriously...." she laughed silently as Dragon started to run around the building.

[Naruto_rulz]

Dragon then ran into the building ignoring the guards " hey why are you in the cell here let me get you out" Dragon walked over to the cell door and took a good hard yank at the cell door and tore it off the hinges " there your all free now" dragon said smiling

[Animeboo]

"What in the hell!?" she yelled, watching Dragon rip the cell door. She didn't dwindle, however, she ran past him. As she ran to the door, she saw a bewildered gaurd that just happened to have her two blades in his hands.
"Convinient..." she mumbled, punching him across the face. He fell to the ground and winced. She then happened to notice it was the gaurd that spit at her. She kicked him in the stomach and grabbed her blades.
((mine's not outside yet, though))

[Naruto_rulz]

Dragon then ranm past the girl, outside and killed every guard leaving noone alive then running off to a waterfall then laying down to go back to sleep.

[Ashley_loves_Kurama]

Ashley sighed and took a break near the waterfall,"This stinks at this rate I'm not gonna find him."

[Strega]

Sora saw some guy running from the prison, "Wonder if he's escaped....."

[Animeboo]

Ichigo ran out of the prison, and seeing the dead bodies, she thought Man, that dude is.... powerful As she ran she turned her head to see if the girl ((Ryvia)) got out safely....

[Strega]

Sora saw a girl run out, "Prison break." she grinned.

[Animeboo]

Sora saw a girl run out, "Prison break." she grinned.


Ichigo saw Sora, but refused to stand and look like an idiot. She forgot about the girl ((ryvia)) and ran. She truned a few corners, in and out of allies, and finally reached home. A small shack of a home, but home non the less. She went inside...

[Strega]

Sora followed the girl ((Ichigo)) and slowly walked up to the house.

[Animeboo]

Ichigo's ears perked as she heard footsteps coming closer to her house. The house was small and very un clean, for Ichigo never had the time nor patience to clean it. Really, there was only a bed, cabnits for food and a couch to sit on, spread into two rooms. Ichigo switched her daggers under her palms and slowly creaped into a small, dark corner. It's a gaurd, no doubt, come to take me again... I won't let that happen... I'll have the element of surprise.....

[Animeboo]

((I gtg, don't go too far without me))

[Strega]

((Not that I can, I mean, I'm sneaking up on you, aren't I?))

Sora slowly opened the door.

[princess2708]

Luckily, Ryvia had managed to escape but was a bit slower getting out of the prison then the others. "Damn....it's times like these I hate being blind!" Cursed Ryvia as she kept her hand on a nearby wall. She had to have lost the guards because she no longer heard footsteps following her, but she stayed on her guard as she continued to move forward.

[Strega]

Sora was about to enter, but heard a girl grumbling about being blind. She walked to where she heard the complaints.

[princess2708]

"Whose there?!" Demanded Ryvia when she heard footsteps coming in her direction. True she was at a clear disadvantage but she certainly wasn't going to let whoever was out there know that. After all, she could pull a few tricks of her own if need be and so she kept up her defenses as she waited to see who was there.

((Love the sig with the silhouetts Strega!))

[Strega]

((Thanks))"Depends, who are you? You break from the prison, too?"

[princess2708]

"That is possible, then again maybe I'm just some blind girl who happened to find herself at the wrong place at the wrong time. Both could prove true."
"I hope this works....I can't say anything until I know more about whose here." Thought Ryvia to herself as she remained on guard.

[Strega]

"I'm Sora, slave to a demon..... you?" she didn't want to mention Twilight, just in case.

[princess2708]

"Another slave?! Then maybe...."
Ryvia decided to take a risky chance and without any hesitation, she slowly stepped out from where she had been hiding. If this human was a slave, then there was a good chance they had connections to Twilight. True she was taking a leap in the dark here, but she did that almost everyday so once more wasn't to much to be wary about.

"My name's Ryvia, human slave and daughter of Twilight's past leader."

[Animeboo]

((BLIND! wow, what a twist!))

When Ichigo heard the footsteps slowly dicapate, she came out of the corner. She noticed something... Notes...? she went up to her table, where there were a stack of papers. She sat down in a wooden chair and opened the first.
I am pleased to inform you that the gold you sent in was recieved and is now being counted and checked for piracy.
Good.... she opened the next one,
To: Ichigo
From: Kyle A note from Kyle?
I have another job for you, meet me under Blackfriar's Bridge when you get the chance. It's an easy one that won't provide much sport, but I know you can't resist the money.

Kyle, kyle, kyle.... another job for your dear sister?

[Strega]

"Most of us thought you to be dead." Sora stroked the girl's cheek.

[Animeboo]

((btw, I have to go... AGAIN, grrrrrrrrr, try not to go to far, and have fun! The suspence is killing me, can't wait to read your conversation tomorrow. :D))

[princess2708]

((TTYL, and we'll keep you updated!))

"Well I'm not as you can see, I'm very much alive." Said Ryvia with a slight smile in spite of the rather serious circumstances. "And no I told them nothing, but I fear things are becoming more treacherous for everyone involved."

[Strega]

((I have 13 minutes... time to abuse time! YUS!!!))

[Strega]

"... Hmmm... If you're alive, they must be desperate. Please, you need a place to stay.... That girl from earlier...." Sora was thinking.

[princess2708]

((That's the best time there is! Uhhh...yeah you can tell I can be random at times....))

"More then likely she has her own agenda and won't worry much with us." Said Ryvia, but just then she turned her head towards the direction she had just come from.
"Someone's coming...and from the sounds of it, it's more guards." She whispered as she immediately stood on guard for any possible attacks.

[Strega]

Sora grabbed her hand, "I know a place!"

[princess2708]

At first Ryvia cringed slightly at someone unfamiliar grabbing her hand, but she shoved that to the back of her mind as she noticed that the footsteps were coming closer.
"Alright, lead the way." She whispered in a low voice, but still loud enough for Sora to hear.

[Strega]

Sora avoided the rougher, faster path, but made it to a bush. She pushed Ryvia in and followed. The were in a cavern impossible to notice from outside of it, "We just need to stay quiet...."

[princess2708]

"Well that shouldn't be to difficult." Whispered Ryvia as she listened for any sign of their pursuers.
Sure enough the tell-tale footsteps continued to come closer as they remained in their hiding place, in fact there were a few instances were Ryvia could have sworn they walked right past the cavern yet never noticed it.

"No one's out here."

"But I could have sworn I saw that Twilight brat run this way, and there was someone with her!"

"And I think you're just seeing things!"

"Enough! Obviously there is no one here and there is no point in looking any furthur. We'll report back to the palace then continue our search, understand?!"

A few affirmative replies were heard before the guards began their treck away from where Sora and Ryvia were hiding. Though it wasn't until she could no longer hear their footsteps when Ryvia let out a sigh of relief.
"Well, that was more tension then I want to feel in a while." She said somewhat jokingly despite the still somewhat tense situation.

[Animeboo]

Ichigo opened her door slightly, she peeked outside and saw four gaurds talking to eachother.
"Enough! Obviously there is no one here and there is no point in looking any furthur. We'll report back to the palace then continue our search, understand?!" she heard one of them say. She waited a little while then stepped outside. Should I wait till the morning to visit Kyle? I'm still in hot pursuit by the gaurds.... decpite Ichigo's own warnings to herself, she walked on and out of her little home. She wouldn't dare make any sound, so before she left, she put on some simple clothe, as to not make any noise.
She walked slowly to Blackfriar's Bridge, making sure not to look suspicious, but still held a small shiv (knife) in a sheath by her side. When finaly she arrived, Kyle was standing under the bridge. Kyle had light, silky brown hair that curved right in the front. He heard the foot steps and looked, only to see his dear sister Ichigo.
"Kyle... I hear you have a job for me?" she asked, just above a whisper.
"Damnit, Ichigo, your pride will get you some day, mark me. Just get over here and listen." Ichigo did as her brother had said.
"Now," he whispered, "I heard a rumor going around the streets that there was a Jail Break." he whispered.
Why worry him by telling him that I was in it? "Really... I could hear it from outside my windows...." Ichigo said.
"Yes, and the man who let all those people loose has a HUGE price on his head."
"How huge?"
"More than one thousand gold peices, that's for sure."
"That sounds like easy money..."
"No it isn't."
"Hmm?"
"This guy is super strong, super fast and-"
"and I'll have the element of surprise like always, dear brother, so I'll just reach up behind him and stab him where it hurts."
"It's not that simple, Ichigo...." Kyle had a hint of worry in his voice.
"I'll have the head of that boy by tomorrow night." and with that she ran away, her brother Kyle calling after her.

[Strega]

"Woo! That was freaky. So, you're okay, right?" Sora smiled, slightly shaking.

[princess2708]

"I'm fine, but what about you? You sound rather shaken up." Said Ryvia once she was certain it was safe to talk.

[Strega]

"Heh, I go from not-so-loyal-servant to wanted for helping you, I've never had to run like that in my life, and one of those guards killed one of my parents, other then that, I'm fine...." Sora ticked off on her fingers.

[princess2708]

"Well I am grateful for your help, and as for the not so loyal slave predicament that I can relate to." Said Ryvia as she felt around the walls of the small cavern before finding the entrance. "At least we should be in the clear for some time, seeing as those guards probably won't start searching again for some time."

[Strega]

"They're probly at the local pub." Sora joked, helping Ryvia out, "Say, you haven't heard anything about a slave named Lyle, have you?"

[princess2708]

"No I'm afraid I haven't, but I'm guessing this Lyle is someone you know?" Asked Ryvia as a questioning look crossed her face.

[Strega]

"Yes...." Sora looked at the ground.

[princess2708]

Just from the tone of Sora's voice, Ryvia knew not to ask anymore questions.
"I'm sorry I don't know anything that could be helpful, but I might can still help you. There are other ways of getting information around this city, and I know most of them."

[Strega]

"I think you need to rest for now... I don't know anyone I can put 100% trust in though..." Sora sighed, "The times when I feel totally useless...."

[princess2708]

"Stop right there! You are not useless, and I certainly won't have you thinking such. You've already proven just the opposite by helping me. As for finding a place to lay low for awhile, we'll just have to take or chances and hope everything works in our favor."

[Strega]

"Okay...." there was a small hint of doubt in her voice, "Hmmmm..... Ha! I know someone, not 100% trustworthy, but at least 70%." she gently pulled Ryvia's hand.

[princess2708]

"Then lead the way." Said Ryvia as she felt Sora take her hand and begin leading her in a different direction then the one they came from earlier.

[Strega]

They reached a small house. Sora rapped on the door, "Open up, Felly!!! I got somethin' important!!!"
A tired groan came from inside and a small girl opened the door, "What Sora?"
"Let us in, for just the night, please?"
"Okay." the girl yawned, "You know your way around."
Sora led Ryvia in, then to a room, automatically switching the light on, "Your room."

[princess2708]

"Well she certainly doesn't ask many questions, but that's one more advantage we have." Said Ryvia as she slowly walked around the room and used her hands to get a better feel of the room's layout and where everything was located.

[AxelsShadowGirl]

Room for one more???? ^_^'

[princess2708]

Room for one more???? ^_^'

((Of course, the RP stays open for newcomers.))

[Strega]

"I always stop by suddenly, usually I'm in trouble though.... You gonna be okay?" Sora asked, half-leaning on the frame.

[princess2708]

"I'll be alright, after all I've faired much worse before." Said Ryvia in a somewhat joking tone of voice, even though there was a tone of truth to her words.

[Strega]

"Okay.... Um, the kitchen is out the door, and directly in front of you, it's the first place we hit when we walked in. the bathroom is the room right next to your's and my room is directly across from your's." she yawned, "I'm gonna head to bed, kay?"

[princess2708]

"Alright, and thanks again for helping me avoid those guards earlier." Said Ryvia as she turned so she was facing the doorway where Sora was currently standing.

[Strega]

"No problem. Please, don't go anywhere in the morning with out warning me. I wouldn't want you back in that place." Sora smiled and trudged to her room, keeping the door open, knowing she wouldn't be able to sleep.

[princess2708]

"Fair deal, considering that's the last place I want to end up again."
Ryvia couldn't help but cringe slightly at the memory of where she had been only moments before, and needless to say she was rather glad to get away from there. However, that also presented several more problems as she had no doubt that people would be on the lookout for her once word got out that she had escaped. Still she'd worry about that when she needed to, her main goal right now was to just lay low and see what she could accomplish behind the scenes.

[Strega]

The next morning Sora stood, sleepless, and the little 30 minutes of sleep she had were plagued with the usual nightmare. She sighed and decided to get breakfast.

[princess2708]

Ryvia had stepped out of her room about the same time as Sora, and she probably would have run into her had she not heard her footsteps.
"I thought I heard someone walking around, guess I was actually right."

[Strega]

"Huh? Oh." Sora smiled, "It's okay, one fall wouldn't have hurt me. I'd be more worried about you. Are any of your cuts infected? I'm not the best medic around, but I can still help."

[princess2708]

"I think I should be alright, true I'm still a bit sore but other then that they didn't cut me that badly. However, if I ever find the bastard that was using that whip then he had better hope someone else gets to him before I do."

[Strega]

Sora chuckled, "Hungry, then?"

[princess2708]

"Now that you mentioned it, actually I am but you'll have to lead the way again."

[Strega]

Sora led her to the kitchen, "Whatchya want to eat?"

[Animeboo]

The next morning, Ichigo walked to the nearest pub, wearing a loose cloak to shield her face, as if she wasn't used to it. She walked through the door, and to the bar, putting a small gold peice on the counter. A man walked up to her from behind the counter.
"What can I gets yous?" his voice was think and heavy with alchohol.
"Information... and a beer." she said, just above a whisper.
"Well if it ain't Mary." said the man.
"Well if it ain't Tom." replied Ichigo.
"My name's not Tom, and yous knows that."
"Well my name isn't Mary, is it Tom?" the man looked down at the bar. "Now, the information I asked for... and if you wouldn't mind, the beer."
"Yeah yeah yeah." he reached below the bar and got a cup, and then poured some beer in it and passed it to her, taking the shilling with him.
"Now, Mary, what do yous means by information?
"I mean people, Tom, people."
"I always knews yous wasn't no people person, Mary, I knews."
"Stop that, and tell me if you know a man named Dragon." Ichigo said, getting impatient.
"I'll tells yous if you stop calling me Tom."
"I'll stop calling you Tom, if you stop calling me Mary." she pulled the cloak a little tighter arouund her face, as she was getting some looks from the people in the bar.
"All right....Mary.... A guy named Dragon let a bunch of people loose from the jail last night, is what I heards, and don't ask me how I know." the man was proud of himself with the inforation he had just given, but Ichigo wa un-impressed.
"Useless," she said, angrily, "I was in the jail when he let us loose." she took a sip of the beer.
"Well.... Mary," he had a hint of cleverness in his voice, "the gaurds that just came through the door will be likin' to know that... I'm sure."
"Do you know where he is now?" Ichigo asked, slightly placing her hand over the dagger placed next to her hip.
"They say he rests at a waterfall to the east, but if yous don't wants me to tell the gaurds your little secret, Mary, you'll have to give me a little more pay..." he smirked.
"The name's Ichigo,"
and with that Ichigo spat in the man's face, taking out her shiv (knife) and throwing it through his rib cage. He spat a small gasp and then leaned over the bar. Someone next to Ichigo screamed as she withdrew the blood-stained dagger out of his heart. The gaurds quickly ran over to her, but she had already gotten up and jumped out the open window.....

[Animeboo]

OOC: IS Naruto Rulz still playing?

[Strega]

((I don't know...))

[Animeboo]

((Well, it's going to be hard to fight him if he's not even here, lol o_0))

[Strega]

((Lol, yes it would be.))

[Animeboo]

((well, I'll wait another day or two before continueing.. just in case.))

[Strega]

((lol, okay, That'll work.))

[Animeboo]

(( that's it... I'm sure he would've posted by now. Does anyone mind, before I go ahead, if I play Dragon for this scene?))

[Strega]

((I don't mind.))

[Animeboo]

Ichigo looked around herself, at the water fall surrounded by plants. It was really beautiful.... not that Ichigo cared. She held her dagger firmly, hidden behind a small bush. She looked around, trying to find DRagon. MAybe he's not here... but as soon as she thought that, she saw a man laying down.
I don't remember seeing him there.... it was like he appeared out of nowhere. She decided to get a closer look.
She stepped forward, only to step on a small branch. It cracked making more noise than Ichigo wanted, and Ichigo wanted none. She ducked down, and watched as Dragon turned around swiftly at the noise. Ichigo gave a small sigh of relief. When she opened her eyes again, he was gone.
What the...? she looked around for him, but saw nothing. Suddenly, she heard a noise from behind her! She turned around as quickly as she could, but it wasn't fast enough. He was standing behind her,
"Hello there, I guess you've come to kill me...." he said, but before Ichigo could do anything, he raised his fist and punched her in the face, sending her backwards, and out of the bush. I've never seen anyone this fast before! she threw her shoulders back and gripped her blade. She swung herself forward and atempted to hit him with her dagger. BUt when she came close to hiting him, he dissapeared.
SHe could feel his breath behind her for only a split second,
"Pathetic..." he whispered to her, she tried to turn around,but he beat her to it. He swung his foot at the back of her head, throwing her against a tree. She winced at the pain, but retaliated and threw herself at him again.
The same thing happened, he was gone before she could come close, but she had learened. She turned around, to find Dragon behind her. He looked mildly surprised, but smiled anyway. Ichigo, instead of throwing herslef at him, threw her dagger at him. HE dodged but not fast enough. The dagger cut his left arm.
"You're a fast learner," he smirked and laughed at her. Ichigo ignored him, as she hated small talk while trying to kill someone. She tasted the blood in her mouth, and knew that she had to beat him quickly, But how? she thought.
Suddenly he dissapeared again, Ichigo turned around in a 360, but found no sign of him.
"Grrr, Show yourself coward!" she ran over to the ground to pick up her dagger, but he beat her to it.
"Okay, only if you want me to!" he picked up Ichigo's dagger, and Ichigo took a step back. He swung his left hand at her face, she dodged, ducking down and attempting to punch him in the stomach. He jumped back and flipped right over her. Ichigo turned around as he landed and tryed to kick him with her left foot. He caught the leg (with lighting fast reflexes) pulled her closer to him and sliced her left arm.
"AH! Why you!" she used her other leg, and used him for support, she caught his face with her ankle. He dropped her, and pushed back.
Ichigo jumped back up, putting her right hand over her wound, breathing heavily. Who is this guy? How can he do this? She ran forward, but he jumped over her, but as he jumped over her, Ichigo pulled on his arm and grabbed her dagger back, throwing off his balence. He landed awkwardly and then kicked the dagger out of Ichigo's hand. She jumped forward at him, almost screaming with fustration. She thrusted her arm forward, only to have him grab it and twist it.
"AGH!" the pain was immence. BUt she wouldn't give up. She tripped him with her legadn sent him flying torward the waterfall's edge.
But he wasn't going down that easily. He caught himself just intime so as he wouldn't fall off the water fall edge. She ran forward, again, and tried the same manuver.
He laughed as he jumped up, sending Ichigo running off the edge....
But he grabbed her hand as she fell. She was relieved but at the same time angry for not beating him. Just get it over now, stop taunting me!
"I never caught your name," he said it as if he didn't break a sweat, but his breathe said otherwise.
"Grrr, go to hell!" she twisted and turned, but his grip was to strong, and she was too weak to jump back up.
"Woah, c'mon, you put up an... okay fight." he didn't let go, no, he WOULDN'T let go.
"Just kill me you sorry excuse for a man!"
"Why so eager to die?" he asked her. Ichigo had had enough of this. She took out her shiv (small knife) out of her pocket and sliced his hand.
He let go of her....

((ps, don't worry, she didn't die.))
((pss, I want to know what you thought of my action sequence.))

[Strega]

((It's awsome!!!))
