Firesburn An angel appeared from somewhere in the sky. She had been watching them from a nearby tree and felt the need to save them. Just so that she could get something in return later. She threw something at the demon to distract it then she threw a small knife aiming to kill it instantly. She quickly pulled her hair up into a pony tail using a bit of string that was wrapped around her wrist them she jumped out of the tree her white robes still gleaming. She had her wings out but didn't seem to notice or care, her real feathery angelic wing and then her mechanical wing crafted by someone unknown out of the lightest metal avaliable then dotted with holes to make it lighter. She pulled the injured man out of the way and up into a tree. "Stay there." She muttered jumping down to help the strange man in creme. "You timed that well." Neo smiled watching the demon hiss in pain as the knife hit it across its neck. It stumbled, in pain, towards Neo and hit his face then threw a ball of darkness at him that pushed him over. Then the demon either disappeared or died in a puff of black smoke. Mike frowned and jumped out of his place in the tree and went over to Neo who was on the ground seemingly unconcious. "Bad luck mate." He laughed checking for his pulse but moving his hand quickly as if the alien was diseased. "What the...?" He frowned and shook his head. "Sorry mate, those clothes aren't worth that." Then he disappeared running off back home through the trees.

Emelin rolled her eyes and kept walking. She stopped at an incline and looked to her left. There was a small lake, gleaming in the morning sun. She looked for any signs of the woman and Bennett, but they were still gathering herbs. She went over to it and looked into it. She smiled and went back to the path.
She went over the small hill and looked out to the town ahead. It wasn't large, but not too small, a plus was the fact it was near the sea. She adored the sea. She felt something when she's near water, like a powerful calmness. She gave the town a grin and walked down the hill towards it.

Saphira_lights "You timed that well." Neo smiled watching the demon hiss in pain as the knife hit it across its neck.

Then he disappeared running off back home through the trees. The girl winced as Neo fell and rushed over to him watching the other man as he ran off. "What?" She called after him sighing knowing that he wouldn't answer. She watched the man and frowned. "What's the matter with you?" She said softly folding her wings carefully, it took a bit of thinking to make them do things at the same time. Extending a pale hand to touch him the girl thought better of it and let it drop to her side. She hoped he was ok as she didn't know what to do to help. "That is a demonic wound, it won't go away without a fight..." She muttered knowing more than she let on about demons and their workings.

I really don't want ugly scars on my new body already. I haven't even seen myself yet, you don't have a mirror do you?" He asked suddenly opening his eyes and looking up into the face of an angel. "And i believe the reason for that man running off is because he won't have met someone with two pulses before." Neo smiled attempting to sit up slowly although he felt dizzy.

Jade sat in a tree in the forest looking at a small town, she started at it for a moment then jumped down from the tree heading twords the small town. Jade walked into a store looking at the ground, she wondered were she was now, she new she was in a different continent but what was it? Jade looked up "What is the name of this continent?" Jade hadnt talked to someone in a long time so her voice was a little shakey
The person she asked looked at her "Jal'Rusai"
"thank you" Jade walked from the store. she never heard of a place called Jal'Rusai, weird.

The demon was the first to break the stare down and he lunged at Jager. This was exactly what Jager was waiting for. He stood still as the demon gained speed.
"You're giving up, eh? Heh, doesn't matter! DIE!!"
There was a slashing sound and then a splatter of blood. The villagers, who had turned their heads, were now staring at the result. The demon was hanging on to Jager's shoulder. The Draco Dao was sticking through his back to the point where some off the pole had gone through him. The blade and pole was dripping in the demons blood. The demon looked at Jager with a gaping mouth and a eyes that were fading to pure white. Jager placed his foot lightly on the demon's chest and thrust him through the blade, the demon dropping dead. Jager looked down at the corpse and then back at the villagers, his eyes meeting with the eyes that were filled with disbelief. He pointed his blade at a random villager, some of the blood dripping to the ground in the momentum.
"Where can I wash this blade?"
The villager was a boy a few years younger than Jager. He stuttered as he spoke, and he pointed to the left.
"Ther-there's a-a lake down th-that way... W-we don't use it f-for anything, so y-y-you can wash it there."
Jager nodded and made his way to the deirection, but he was stopped by the young woman he rescued.
"Wait..who are you..?"
Jager looked at her a moment. "I am the Dragon Chieftain."
The crowd grew excited. Random people starting talking out.
"King Riyu finally found a worthy man, eh?"
"Seems that way..." Jager used his Wisdom powers and used his telekinisis to levitate his body to fly. He came to the lake and kneeled down to it.
-=No wonder they don't use it. It's so dirty..=-
-=Mmmm.....=- Jager nodded in response. -=It almost seems like it was poisoned by evil magic. It should be alright if I just use it on the blade to clean it. He took a clothe out of his jacket's many pockets and dipped the blade into the water. He swirled it around a bit and pulled it out, wiping the blood off with the clothe. When Jager saw a shine in the blade again, he tossed the clothe into the lake. He smiled at his reflection.
-=How's that look? Think it's clean enough?=-
-=Yeah, that looks real good.=-
Jager patted Valk's head and stood up, continuing to go on wherever fate led him.

Topaz kept walking throught the cloudy night and all next day. She stopped around noon by the side of a small pond. Slipping off her boots, she dangled her feet in the water. Phaeox flew off towards the nearby forest. He would see if there was anyone nearby. So far on the road, they had met a fisherman, but that was all. He was intrigued by Phaeox, but obviously didn't understand what he was, or he would have tried to steal him, like so many other countless people.
She finished swirling her feet around in the cool water. She replaced her boots and looked around for her Phonix.
.: Phaeox, I'm ready to go.... :. She thought this, and he had luckily been monitoring her thoughts, so he replied.
.: Be there in a moment. :. He flew into veiw with a mouse clutched in his beak.
"Next time, could you finish that befoer you come back?" She watched, disgusted, as he choked down the rodent.
He just looked at her, with a reproachful look in his features. He almost seemed human sometimes.
They set off again. The path slowly changed from a country dirt path to a forest path, then to a cobble stone road. Finally, she stood outside huge city gates. The sign said: Eyeral, capital of Jal'Rusai.
"Here we go again..." Topaz stepped into the city, pretending to be unaware of the watching towns people. They couldn't help staring. Most probably hadnever seen an elf before, and much less, with a Phoenix.
She would find the castle, and explain that a very important official in her people's court had been wrongly accused, and she had come to return him. They wouldn't know that none of it was true.

Emelin stopped just before anyone noticed she exsisted and put her coat back on. She didn't know if anyone would talk to her if her wings were all out there. She walked into the town as if she's been living there for years and came back for a friendly hello. She looked around for something to eat and saw a little stand with a boy behind the counter, looked no older than 7.
"Excuse me, how much would this fruit be?" The little boy looked as if he was petrified and then an older woman came from around the corner.
"Ah, hello hello. Sorry about Darwin, he doesn't know how to handle strangers... so what would you like m'lady?"
Emelin searched around her pack and brought out three coins. "How much food would this get me?" The lady smiled. "Your a traveler aren't you?" Emelin nodded and gave a weak smile. "I never had alot..." the lady smiled back and gave her three fruits. "Give me one coin and you keep the rest."
Emelin smiled brightly and gave her one coin. The lady smiled back and gave the coin to the child and the child ran off to a little group of other little boys. Emelin walked off with the fruit and began eating one and put the other two in her pack. She had to find a place to sleep, so she wandered off to the shore of the sea and looked around. She found a shady tree and laid under it and set down her things. She deeply breathed the sea air and soon fell asleep.

Jade sat in the tree she was in before looking at the sky, then in her head someone or something said something, the words were muffled and she couldnt hear them but something pulled her to a ice and snow covered mountain (sp). Jade jumped from the tree confused for a moment and then started to walk tword the mountain, as she reached it at the base of it was a large cave the opening of the cave was iced over. Jade walks to the iced over opening of the cave she couldnt see through the thick ice so put her ear to it, in side it she could hear nothing.
-=Strike it. You can break it.=-
Jade stood there confused for a moment then backed up from the iced over opening of the cave. She runs at the ice and makes a clean slash. At first, nothing happened, but then the ice shattered. Then a small, icy blue dragon steps from the cave shakeing its head and wings getting ice and snow off them. As soon as Jade saw this dragon something inside her said she would never want this dragon away from her side. She kneeled down to the dragon and held her arm out, touching its forehead out of a mixture of instinct and impulse. Right after contact, a bright light consumed her, and a new power flowed through her. The cold environment was not so chilling now. She looked at the dragon, who stared back at her, tilting its head.
"Luka.." A random name for this new dragon, but the dragon agreed.
-=Hello, Jade.=-

Jager halted as he felt the power of another Dragon Knight rising. Valk, who scanned Jager's mind, felt it too.
-=It's another Dragon Knight. I wonder which one has come up.=-
-=Finally! A new dragon!!=- Valk beamed at the thought of another dragon appearing.
The two made their way back to Eyeral. Jager saw a figure at the castle gates. As he came closer, so did the figure. It looked like a moon elf. A girl moon elf. Jager approached the girl. (Topaz)
"Who are you?"

Emelin woke up, many hours later, to the sun starting to set, again.
"Oh bloody hell, I really need to learn to sleep at night..." She gathered her things, and checked them, in case someone decided to rob her of her items as she slept, and walked to a cliff, just outside the town. She sat on it's edge and looked out the the sea with the sun setting upon it.
"So beautiful..." She sat back on her hands and swung her feet over the cliff's rockey edge and watched the waves beat heavily upon the rocks below. She felt something powerful, something she's never felt before... she just shrugged it off and headed back into town to see if she could do some begging, or see if people will pay for a feather of hers... its worked before... and she needed more coins anyway.

Topaz turned as some human addressed her.
"I'm ...uh... Topaz." She looked the figure up and down. He was wearing odd sort of clothes, for a human. She looked confused for a moment, but cleared up instantly, when she saw he had a dragon. All dragon trainers were a bit touched in the head, she had learned from experience.
"This is the capital?" she asked.

She walked through the streets of the town and people were scurrying to get home. Apparently it wasn't safe at night outside in the streets. "Well this is wonderful..."
She walked through the streets, people looking at her in surprise, others pretending she didn't exsist. "What is the point of staying here if no one welcomes you..."
She gave a sigh and walked out of the town with one last look of the sea and headed towards the next town, what that town was? She had absolutly no idea. Though upon leaving the town in her tracks, she took her coat off again and stuffed it into her pack. She spread her wings wide and started off again. Keeping wings cramped up in a coat gets very uncomfortable.

"No, this is not the capitol. Jal'Rusai has none. This is Eyeral, the Dragon Knight's headquarters."
The Dragon Knight of Wisdom eyed Topaz.
"What business do you have of Eyeral?"
