Lanthanos' eyes wandered across the table of the temple, his eyes fell on something he couldn't help but grab. "I don't believe it... the-the shard of earth!? After going to all of that trouble last time, here it is, falling into my hands!" When Lanthanos grasped the shard, it absorbed itself into his body, and he heard what seemed to be a memory of Mouse.
Those who are foolish enough to use the shards power to its fullest take on demon-like states. I suspect that the original demons, the ones who tried to steal the Jewel, were actually former Elementalists themselves. Watch this shard well, and beware of Geo...
Lanthanos couldn't believe it, he finally had it. He heard a sound outside, which brought up his curiosity. He ran out into the other room, and found a woman in the temple. Knowing that the charms were still in place, he knew this person couldn't be hostile. "Greetings, and welcome to the Druid Temple, or what is left of it. I am Lanthanos."

Angel made her way along the outskirts of the ruined druids temple. She was wearing a blank tank top along with a pair of jean cut of shorts, revealing her toned arms and legs. For some reason it felt as if she was being drawn towards it. Atleast ever since she had discovered that strange shard. She could remember when she found it, almost as if it was yesterday. She was making her way through the woods towards the south, as she tried to find a safe place to rest for the night. She remembered she was making her way along the edge of a steep slope, and had lost her footing. She ended up sliding all the way to the bottom, and found herself with her face in the dirt. She looked up to see something shining about a foot away from her. She pulled herself up onto her knees, as she carefully reached out towards it. She rested the small metalic colored shard in her hand when it suddenly started to grow and appeared to meld into her hand. After that though she had discovered she had suddenly gained strange new powers, which were very helpful from time to time. She had practiced with her powers everyday untill even she had to admit she was pretty good at handling them. She then sighed, as she shrugged these thoughts out of her mind. At the moment her main priority was to find anything valuable so she could get money to get food, and to possibly rent an inn.

Angel continued to make her way through the forested area surrounding the temple grounds. She could of sworn she had heard someone earlier, and didn't want to risk getting caught. Maybe if she waited for awhile whoever was there would leave. Deciding not to risk it, she then made her way over towards a nearby tree where she would be able to have a good view of the temple. She began to pump her arms back and forth, before jumping up towards a sturdy looking branch. She gripped the branch, as she pulled her knees up towards her chest before slightly leaning backwards. She hung her legs over the branch, as she hung upside down. She could feel the blood begin to rush to her head, as she stayed the way she was for a moment. She then pulled herself up, and carefully stood up on the branch. She was able to get onto the next branch a lot easier seeing how it wasn't as high, and she could just swing her leg over and climb onto the branch. She continued to climb up at a steady rate untill she was pretty far up. She had a pretty good view of the temple from where she was. Now all she had to do was wait.

((im guessing you're talking to me Geo..right sweatdrop ))
Hearing someone elses' voice she jumped back in suprise as her hand reached for her throwing disc and placed her hand over her necklace defensively. It was an automatic response when she wasn't expecting anyone to be around. Quickly seeing that the person was greeting her rather than posing a threat she sighed and chuckled to herelf as she relaxed bringing her hands to her side and bowing in greeting.
"uh hello there...sorry about that, you just startled me. I didn't expect anyone to be here really".
Her eyes continued to scan the ruins of the druid temple in fascination, she had heard soo many stories about it and wanted to see if they were true or not.

Lanthanos grinned widely at this woman. "You should not be afraid young lady, for in these hallowed walls of the Druids, no harm can come to those who hold shards, for those who wish harm to us may not enter. It has been thus since before... for a long time now."
Lanthanos thought that it might be best not to mention the Void incident directly to this person, for he wasn't sure if the soul within her was directly involved with Void. He would like to tell it, it might even make an interesting story. That's it... it is a story.

A dark portal opened in the area surrounding the Druid Temple, and from it emerged Godric. He surveyed the wooded area, and it made him glad to be back in this realm. "Ah, the fresh power of earth, mine to grasp once again." The very ground that he was standing on seemed to wilt away to death.
"Let's see now, is there anyone around here? Wait... oh this is too good to be true. In the temple, there is an earth shard holder, perhaps Mouse has returned for another round with me! And... wait, closer, there is a metal shard holder." He sniffed into the air, he definitely could smell someone was nearby. He walked through the woods, the ground where he stepped dying under his feet. He walked right next to the tree that Angel stood atop of. He stopped, not knowing exactly where the shard was, but knowing he was directly on top of it.
((Or under it xp ))

Angel was getting bored or waiting for whoever was inside of the temple to leave. She just wanted to see if there was anything valuable inside. Sighing, she was just about to leave when she noticed someone had appeared to be under the tree. There was something odd about this person, the ground around him appeared to be wilting away. He also appeared to look familiar. She didn't know if she should go and check it out or not, but this person seemed to be giving her a bad feeling. She decided to try and go up higher in hopes that he wouldn't be able to notice her that easily in the covering of the tree. She went to to grab a branch close by when her foot slipped on the branch she was on. She luckily grabbed a nearby branch, but she didn't know if whoever was at the base of the tree had heard her.

Walking up the path the pack on her back looked large as she leaned on a stick to help her balance up the path as she moved, staring up at the temple she wrinkled her nose at it annoyedly as she stopped beneath a tree near the entrance, seeing another man there but deciding to leave him alone. Leaned against it to rest for a moment. Sitting down she swung her pack gracefully around to her front, resting it on her lap as she rested her hand on the front of it, holding it like a baby, protectively holding on to it

Godric looked around him, he couldnt' believe this. He seemed just to be overcome with shard holders that he desired. The only shard left that wasn't accounted for was animal, this was just too wonderful. He would go after the metal shard holder, and get their shard, then the gravity shard holder, then the power of gravity would easily allow earth to be overcome, and after that, the animal shard would easily be his.
He suddenly heard a gasp, like out of surprise, and he looked up. In the tree, there was a girl, one who seemingly resembled Angel. And she was right here, he found the metal shard. He leapt up into the air with superhuman strength and agility, and landed on the branch she was on.
"Hello Angel, need a hand?" he teased as the branch rotted away beneath him, sending them both plummetting back towards the ground.

Angel looked up with a surprised look on his face, but she didn't have time to react. The branch they were on soon began to rot away, as it broke under their weight. She found herself falling towards the ground below. She was almost to the ground when she reached out towards a nearby branch. She managed to grasp onto it, but it began to break. Luckily though it wasn't as high as before. She managed to gracefully land in a crouched position, as she quickly turned her attenention to whoever this person was.
"Who are you, and how do you know my name?" She demanded, as she got into a fighting stance. She wasn't about to take any chances.

Opening her eyes she heard someone behind her. Standing up she swung her bag behind her back again, resting one hand beneath it and the other one hovering over her side lightly
"Hello? Is anyone there?"

Godric landed on the ground with a heavy thud. He didn't move at first, but the ground beneath him continued to wilt. He stood back up, seemingly unhurt by the tremendous fall. He ignored the sound of someone else, all he could think about was finally getting his hands on a shard. "Angel, I am surprised that you don't remember me. After all, I did once give you what you wanted, a chance for revenge."
Godric smiled wickedly at her, his long red hair hanging in his face. He drew out his warhammer, a wicked looking piece of work, and prepared himself for a charge. "You have something that belongs to me right now though... and I would very much like it back."

Angel took a step back, as a shocked look formed on her face. An image of a notebook appeared in her mind, and she could almost make out what was on the pages perfectly. She quickly wipped the thought out of her mind, as she reached behind her back, as she grabbed her kamas. They appeared to almost be minature sickles, but they were defiently useful seeing how they were made completly out of metal. She then let out a small scuff, as she prepared herself for a possible attack.
"And what could I possibly have of yours?" She questioned in a somewhat sarcastic manner.

Slowly peeking around the edge of the tree she stopped before stepping out next to the strangely familiar girl. The man before her gave her an uneasy feeling as she leaned against the tree and smiling innocently and using the name she'd heard the man call the girl
"There a problem Angel? Looks like this guy is getting a little obnoxious or something"

Godric turned his head in shock, to see the shardholder of gravity standing there. This was too good to be true, two shards in one fight, and no other demons around to muck up this battle. "Toni, ah well this is a pleasant surprise. Well, it just so happens that you have something of mine as well. You both see, you are shardholders... specifically of the shards of gravity and metal... both my powers you see. And Angel also happens to have my notebook. So, you can both make this easy, or difficult." Godric also drew out his demon longsword, holding this in his other hand. The demonic make of these two weapons made them resistant to rust, which was definitely a bonus to Godric.
