It is an ancient book containing very powerful lost magic. But unknown to the Scarlets someone else has hired The Kralle mercenaries to do the same task. You will be meeting on the river port and the boat ride shall take several days payment will be based on the condition of the book and the time it takes for it to be retrieved (history lesson: No ordinary person can read the Book of Leben, Only the most powerful of mages. Any normal person or lesser mages who attempt to read the book shall only see blank pages. The Kralle mercenaries are a brutal group who will kill someone just for looking at them the wrong way, and The Kralle and the Scarlets don't quite get along and have had confrentaions in the past) |

| Leaning against the side of ship, Katsumi closes her eyes, smiles and breaths in the fresh water air as the small breeze blows through her hair. 'This brings back such fond memories' |
 |
| Athena arrives whit the other two.Her hair is still waved by the breeze. |
 |
| John is onboard sitting against the mast sharpening his sword MournHeart, he looks out at the crew and the other passengers. It seems like its going to be a quiet day... |
 |
| Athena gazes at the horizon,sitting on the edge of the ship.The red sun goes down in the dark blue salty water."I just arrived and I go again." she said and sighed,in a low tone. |
|
| "Seems as though we have that in common. Hello I'm 'Katsumi', but please call me 'Kat'." Katsumi puts a hand out for her to shake. |
|
| "Athena." the lady smiles,and shakes Kat's hand. |
|
| "And you sir?" |
|
| ((i just called my friend akumatenshi13, and she asked me to put her charecter on the ship cause she is at the store, so LET IT BE)) The ship pushed off of the dock and began its journey into the north |
| ((do we still talk to her or should we wait??)) |
|
| Athena returned to her gazing over the horizon.The image was calming her down.She put her hand on her chest.No beat...Her heart wasn't beating.You would think that after so many years you get used to it,but she hated it.She felt as she was a ghost between living.She sighed,a tear rolling unnoticed down her cheek. |
|
| "The name is John, Ms. Kat. The name is John Doe... the man you wanted to buy as a pet" he said with a humorless smile. |
|
| "Greetings,John." Athena said,quickly wiping her tear and turning around.Her golden eyes were shinning even more because of the holded tears,and her hair was flowing in the wind.Her lavender scent was all over in the air,along whit something that inspired the same serenity feeling as a cemetery. |
|
| "Oh sorry about that. I had no real intention as keeping you as a pet. I figured if I told them that after they found out I was a noblewoman, they'd let you go sooner." |
|
| "Uh huh... because your cute, I'll give the benefit of the doubt Ms. Kat" said John with a now more honest smile. He then turned towards the other girl and said "Pleasure to meet you Ms. Athena..." his face looked puzzled for a minute then he shook his head to rid himself of the errant thought. |
|
| Katsumi walked to the other side of the ship and looked at the water as they passed. |
|
| "Call me only Athena." Athena smiled back,and noticing his move."Something bugging you?" she than asked. |
|
| "Its nothing... just you remind me of and old face. Then again, when your walking corpse who works as a merc traveling the world. You tend to see alot of faces... over ALOT of years" said John holding his head, he made a movement to his pack and grabbed the bottle from earlier and popped it open and took 2 pills and chewed on them as oppose to taking them with water... He then said "You seriously remind me of her: golden eyes, large bodice, but... I can't remember her name for the UNlife of me! I've seen and worked so many EXOTIC women that their names tend to get mixed up or forgotten altogether..." |
|
| Athena sighed."I'm that lady,dumb-ass!" she says,smilling and coming closer to him."We met when we had to recover some treasure.We fought for it and as I was tired it was a draw.We decided to share the reward..and than started to work together." she said sitting turkish style in front of him. |
|
| "Nyah... I don't think so. From what I remember YOU didn't 'work' with me. YOU ditched me sweetheart to go and do whatever one day and left me high and dry... and lunchmeat for the those huge arse rats in that Tomb..." said John smiling at her |
|
| Trying to stop any fighting that may start, Katsumi interrupted, "How long do you think this will take?" |
|
| "It wasn't me.I'm not that cruel considering that I'm the one to -" she started to say but stopped."And when I disappeared,I did it to go find my necromancer." she said,ignoring her unfinished sentence,ignoring Kat. |
|
| Sighing, Katsumi decided to mostly keep to herself until they get there. |
|
| "Your... Necromancer?" said John with look of wonder on his face, then it abrupbtly disappeared as he said "It doesn't change anything... years feel like centuries when you see them pass by with you still sit there unchanging, you know that as well as I do" he gave her a hard look, then he looked over at Kat and said "It should be soon... a few days at the most providing good weather and no pirates". |
|
| "Pirates are fun." |
|
| Athena ignored them.Her feelings were a bit hurt,even if she admits,she shouldn't have disappeared like that.Sighing,she lays on the wooden deck,and as she closes her eyes,her chest moves nicely up and down.She opens her eyes and gazes at the sky.The clouds were looking so nice in the sunlight. |
|
| Looking over her shoulder, Katsumi sees Athena lying down."Lady Athena, is something wrong?" |
|
| "Maybe.And please,only Athena..." she answers,looking at the sky melancholic and whit somewhat sadness. |
|
| "Lad- Athena, would you like to talk about it?" |
|
| "Not really.Is just my necromancer.I try to follow his steps,but everywhere I go where he was I find out he is long gone...I get only fragments,and my only question is why he left me,making me play a puzzle?" Athena said,in a low tone,whit her charming voice filled whit melancholy,sighing. |
|
| "I've encounter several necromancers during my travels. And they tend to be a weird bunch, but I think they try to bring those worthy of life back, and I've known only a handful to keep the people they brought back with them- and they are usually lovers or family members. So it was not done to keep you puzzled." |
|
| "He never told me who I was,as he placed amnesia on me." Athena said,thoughtfully. |
|
| "Lucky you, huh? Not remembering your family or old friends..." said John derisively "I never knew my Maker nor do I know whether or not why I was brought back. All I know is that I spent most of my Undead life trying to find the prick to beat the s*** of him or her and get some answers" |
|
| "Lucky?" Athena said,getting up,and looking in his eyes whit sadness,and somewhat rage."I only remember myself dying,saving my little sister.You have any idea how much it eats my soul to not remember anything else,except her screams 'Sister!Big sister,don't die on me!' As my eyes became blurry?" she said. "And as for your master...If only you'd know how close you are to it!" she continued in her head. |
|
| "...I was abandoned too...but I guess that doesn't help..." |
|
| "It helps.We have something more in common." Athena smiled,turning her head towards Kat,making the rage in her eyes swap away. |
|
| Kat smiled back. |
|
| (( Thanks, Saj! :D )) Ashe yawned and sat up. She was curled up on the floor, and the floor was moving. She blinked a few times, as she was in unfamiliar territory. She looked around, and noted many people she didn't know. Jumping to her feet, she looked around. She was on a ship of some kind. Her stomach protested. "I must've fallen asleep at the bar," she mutters to herself, feeling her face drain of colour. "I told Saj I needed to be on a mission, but this is a little wild....." She leaned over the edge of the boat and was sick. |
| Hearing the sound of a person emptying their stomach, made Katsumi feel sick as well. 'This is something I haven't heard in a while |
|
| The sound disgusted Athena,but she didn't said a word,just laid back on the wooden deck. |
|
| Kat lays down too, humming and rubbing small circles on her stomach while trying to take her mind off her sick comrade. |
|
| Ashe sat back down, visibly green. "I've never been on a ship before..." She states weakly. "I don't think I want to ever be on a ship again," |
| After several days journey the ship arrived at the icey port. Its a small nameless fishing community. Its mid blizzard and visability is low . The ruins are a few miles inland still. A girl (yummy) stands in the fishing village awaiting the rest of the scarlets |
| O.0 'Her seasickness didn't stop...and I haven't eaten in days because of here... Walking off the ship Katsumi clenched her stomach and tried not to puke again her self. |
|
| Athena got out of the ship.With the help of her mainly summoned creature,Azazel,she managed to stay clean.She was wearing a skirt that was ruffly and black,and a black tank top.The sea sun managed to tan her a little.The skirt revealed many bandages on her feet,and now she was walking shoeless. |
|
| Ashe drug herself off the ship, angsty and irritated. She wasn't able to do much than curl up and sleep on the ride to stop the seasickness. And now it was cold. Very, very cold. She didn't like the cold. She just couldn't win. "I need to be paid," She told herself, reminding her that she was broke. |
| John looked around and saw their contact, it was woman holding shield with the Scarlet insignia on it. He waved at all the girls in his party over to follow him to her... |
|
| Sunohl was looking out at the ocean as she was waiting and hadn’t noticed the party. Not that she knew exactly who to look for. With that, she looked a bit out of place. She had on a fancy-looking outfit that was long and flowing, with silver as a predominant color. She had on various pieces of jewelry and generally looked classy and ornamented. |
| "You gotta be kidding me.This ornamented thing is our guild?God help me..." Athena mumbled,as she walked behind John. |
|
| 'Wow, this is going to be very interesting.' |
