Meeting Room
“Lord?” Confused by the term Nakarah shook her head, “Where I am from there are no royal guards or Lords…” She glanced to the table and shrugged, it seemed four had already decided to sit three had sat together and a woman sat across from them. Looking around the room she saw a red head that didn’t seem interested in what was going on around them. The group really didn’t seem to fit together very well, almost like they preferred their own click of people.
“You’re lucky to not have to deal with them,” Aria looked to Kuthin as she shrugged, “Some say it’s to expand their territory, others say that they just don’t like werewolves, and many see us as a threat to their diet.” Looking towards Jarel she couldn’t be certain as to why demons like them would be here. ‘Is his whole group here?’
Ray glanced to the Void Walker but it didn’t really peek his interest. ‘Finally out of the cell and trapped in a room with lots of people...I can’t stand people,’ Ray moved from the wall and sat at the far end of the table deciding to wait patiently while comfortable.
Closing his eyes, Zamar tuned out the noise around him. Since it was apparent which four would not be joining them he didn’t see the use of being too chatty. None had looked familiar to him when he had looked newcomers comers. Sitting on the floor, he forced himself to relax and wait for whatever it was to happen. ‘Zami be careful what lurks in this place might be deadly,’ Zamar sent with caution to his brother.
“Too many in one,” Haiz cut herself off as she was about to agree with Yume, recognizing someone sulking in a corner. “I’ll be right back,” Haiz made her way through the people trying to avoid breaking any of their conversations as she then stopped at the moping Rohza and knelt down. Poking her head between their wings that had covered their crouched body, Haiz frowned as they petted the fire fox that was sitting on their lap.
“Are you okay?” Unsure what had happened Haiz glanced around the room, her eyes fell to Aria with a small grown, “So much for my cover…”
“You’re not a monster in their eyes,” Jarel muttered looking to Haiz he smiled a little, “At least there is one other from our group, so I’m not fully alone with the werewolf.”
“You see me as food so I’d say it’s pretty even,” Haiz laughed and looked to the firefox as it watched her, “What had I missed?”
“Not much really. All Rohza are the same in their eyes. Best to stay clear of the wolf, as for the others not much, lots of hugging,” Jarel shrugged as he retracted his wings and looked around the room. “I’ll stay here until the time comes, it may be best for now to avoid me,” looking back to Haiz he gave a small smile to the vampire, “If the other two are here…”
“I’m not worried about them, Zenos will keep Magnus in check. But it’s finding them that may be hard,” sitting down she made a copy of the firefox, only it was black with yellow eyes. She laughed as the real one fluffed it’s flames as if intimidated by it. “Do you think the wolf will cause trouble for us? We aren’t exactly on good terms with the pack either..”
“Possibly, why I’m staying the hell away from her if at all possible. Also why you should keep your distance,” he grumbled shaking his head as he looked back towards the others that Haiz had came in with. “What of your cellmates?”
“I like them, they aren’t bad, and no I didn’t bite them. As far as they know I’m human with odd power. I was hoping to keep it that way but wolfy there will blab and if not that wolf another might,” shaking her head she looked to Yume and Arcana, “Are you sure you don’t want to try and mingle a little?”
“And be scorned, no. Besides once they discover what we are, they may shun us all the same,” Jarel closed his eyes and let the firefox disappear.
Haiz growled at the stubborn demon and marched back towards Yume and Arcana. Irritated that a wolf had gotten under Jarel’s skin and that the demon pretended that it didn’t care, bothered her. Looking to the two next to the wolf, she couldn’t be certain on what they were talking about. ‘We are going to have many enemies after this…’ Haiz closed her eyes trying not to let it bother her at the moment, ‘Just a mountain to get over when all hell breaks loose. Take one thing at a time..’
Outside
“Perhaps both?” Zami agreed as he looked to the only way out then towards Magnus. The demon seemed unsure of Ice’s question, shaking his head Zami had stepped back into the room and grabbed a cloak from one of the spilled boxes. Throwing the cloak at Magnus, “Here put this on, it should protect you from the sunlight.”
“Thanks, I’m not sure if I’ll need it or not. If not I know someone who will,” Magnus replied as he caught the cloak and put it on, making sure it covered his head before putting his arms inside it. “Alright ready.”
“And it’s black, which is her favorite color,” Zenos smiled looking towards the mouth of the cave, “So we are headed out there?”
“Yep, unless you want to stay with the boxes of bones,” Zami smiled as he headed towards the opening of the cave. Hearing the two join him he glanced back towards Ice and stopped, “Did you need anything from the room? A change of clothes until you can wash the ones you are wearing?”
Cell Four
“Hopefully not, I don’t like puzzles or riddles,” Syus glanced to the wolf they had been following as it changed into their human form, he stopped and looked around the dark tunnel. “What is it?”
“The torches are blown out, but there is a faint sound of voices this way…” Jesper glanced back towards the two behind him, ‘If our torches go out...it could be hard to navigate..’ Unsure of what had caused the torches to go out he shifted on his feet uneasy.
“Lead the way hopefully, we can finally get answers as to where we are,” Syus glanced to Loch with a small smile, “And maybe we will run into our friends…” Though he doubted he would find anyone other than Ray that he knew. Shrugging it off he followed Jesper down the tunnel, as they got closer he could make out some of the voices within and frowned. “That is a lot of people…”

Meeting room
Quintus looked at Kasius confused who only shook his head.
“If you want Nakarah, you can stay with us and our friends, I wouldn't want you to be alone in this large room” Kasius gave the girl a smile.
Quintus nodded in agreement, we're still missing one or two of our friends, but they're all nice, but no pressure if you don't want to, we are still strangers here…” Quintus struggled with the wanting to be friendly part, while also making sure she knew it was alright to decline.
“If you want we can stick around and make she he doesn't mess with ya” Balgrim offered, tapping the strap that held his ax in place.
“There will be no fighting or cause of any hard until our Lord shows up” Jester spoke up watching the three.
“I’ll fight anyone I want little girl, as long as I can keep my party safe” Balgrim glared at her.
“Little!?” Jester was taken back by the comment.
“Seems like she doesn't like her size being talked about, and you” Kuthin looked from Jester to Balgrim, “this is why we get into trouble, you always gatta act tough and pick fights!”
“You know if your magic wasn't sealed you’d be attacking her right now” Balgrim stared down Kuthin who remained silent, pulling at the collar around his neck.
Yume watched Haize go off to a person, someone she knew? If only she had that luxury.
She walked around where they had “landed”, keeping close to Arcana and the Void Walker, seeing what kind of people were in the area. One taller male looked very confident where he was, even looking over in her direction and grinning, only making her uneasy.
Nearby him was a male sitting on the floor? There were perfectly good chairs he could have been using. Looking back at Arcana who was sitting on the floor and leaning against her wall made her judge less. But looking back at the male she sworn he looked familiar, that red hair…
Haize coming back and looking annoyed broker her out of her thoughts, “everything alright? You know someone here?”
Joker looked towards one door, “were almost done, the last ones are on their way” he smiled smugly.
Outside
Ice looked back at the boxes and frowned, did she think she would have to wear possibly someones dead cloths? No. Did she possibly have to do so? Looking back at Magnus, yes. She internally grumbled. “Give me a second…”
Going back into the room she looked at the crates and chose only one, if she found remains, she would just have to deal or go into the stream and risk hyperthermia. Why did that guy have to bleed so much? She used the hit of her katana to break a hole in the crate so it was easier for her to open it.
Inside the crate was just like the others, filled with odd things and clothing, “no bones” she whispered to herself as she looked through what she could wear. She found a black tank top that looked like it fit her, similar to the one she was already wearing and a short-sleeved jacket. As long as it was black and tight to her, she couldn't care.
She ducked behind some of the stacked crates and changed her top but, emerging once done and slipping on the jacket that she found would not close. Oh well. She looked back into the crate seeing a bag before with what looked like water bottles from her home.
She came back through the door and held up the bottles to Zami, “you guys go ahead of me for a moment, I'm gonna fill these up” she said before going over to the stream.
Cell 4
Loch listened to the voices, “I have a party of six, including myself, but that is a lot of people…and these are just the ones talking, who knows who else is in there…” how many were in there? Who knew. Hopefully, the girls that Jespar had found were safe, Arcana included.
A black wooden door with a golden doorknob came into view, the voices were louder as they were right behind the door.
“Anyone smell familiar inside? If you can smell beyond the door that is”

Meeting Room
“Thanks, no one here looks familiar,” petting Riku she was glad to be able to stay with the big group. ‘Looks like their whole group had gotten here…’ glancing to the table, Nakarah wasn’t sure if they should join the others or just stand. ‘Would it be rude to our host to stand? Then again they did kidnap us all..’ Looking back to Kasius a little curious if they would know the answer to one question that seemed to be bothering. “Why are so many of us summoned here? It seems a little odd…” Glancing to the ones staying alone, she wasn’t sure what would cause them not to sit at the table or join into some of the other conversations.
“Thanks, he seemed to back off when you two had shown up,” Aria replied with a small smile as movement caught her eye, she glanced towards Haiz from the corner of her eye. Watching the vampire walk towards Jarel, she wasn’t sure what had happened between the two but the woman had seemed upset as they moved back to the group Haiz was with. Brown ears twitched and she looked to Kuthin, “Magic? What is that?” Turning her head to the side she thought of the demon abilities from her world and wondered if they were the same thing, “Is it like portals that can transport a person from one location to another? Or fire made up of souls?”
“Yeah we are good friends, but he wishes to be left alone. Stupid, no good for nothing.” Haiz growled and crossed her arms, “I gave him the option to meet you guys and he refused. Hopefully after the meeting or whatever he’ll come around..” She sighed and looked to the floor unsure of what to do, it was only a matter of time before the wolf or Aria said something about Jarel and his group. Biting her lip she shook her head hoping to take the uneasy feeling from her mind, “Sorry he can just be stubborn sometimes…”
Turning to his wolf form, Jesper sniffed around the door and looked to Loch shaking his head. Pacing along the door, Jesper pawed at it and waited for Loch or Syus to open it.
“I don’t think he can smell anyone, and it doesn’t look like we have any other choice but to go this way…” Syus replied to Loch as he slowly opened the door and Jesper had poked their head in as Syus had then opened it a little wider. Looking to the people inside he frowned as his eyes fell on Ray’s head, he was tempted to close the door and find another way.
Jesper had turned back to his human form and looked to the many people in the room. None had looked familiar until his eyes fell on Nakarah and he sidestepped in the opposite direction hoping the woman wouldn’t notice him.
Zamar had glanced to the door but remained where he was. Yellow eyes watched one seem to avoid the group, another almost seemed to stay hidden in the shadows of the door. Shaking his head he closed his eyes and waited for whatever to happen. The room was getting a little too crowded to his liking.
Looking over his shoulder, green eyes fell to Syus. A sly smile formed on his lips as his brother finally joined the party. He made no movement to greet them as he looked back to Jester and Joker, “Is that everyone now?”
Jarel’s eyes narrowed at the cocky demon at the table, remaining where he was he looked to the two who seemed to be in charge until the lord or whoever was to show up. Arms folded across his chest he looked towards the door hoping Magnus and Zenos would join the room, but there was no sign of them. A little worried for the two started to creep over him at the thought of something bad happening to them. ‘What if they didn’t make it…’ hoping that they would be back home, and that they hadn’t made to this weird world. Jarel tried to stay hopeful as he closed his eyes and waited.
Outside
“If you’re sure,” Zami replied as he looked to the mouth of the cave. The movement on his right made him glance towards Zenos who seemed to be a little uneasy. “What is it?”
“I think I’ll help Ice out,” Zenos replied not wanting to explain himself. He then walked a little ways behind Ice as he followed her towards the stream.
Watching Zenos head off he glanced towards Magnus a little curious, “So you’re half vampire, what’s the other half? And is Zenos a vampire as well?”
“I’m half Rohza and half vampire,” Magnus replied watching Zenos follow after Ice, “As for Zenos, no he isn’t a vampire not unless you prefer to see him as one. He is actually a Kayram, be glad you see him in this form. It’s easier on the eyes.” Grinning at Zami he then headed towards the mouth of the cave.
Having more questions than answers, Zami followed after Magnus. Wincing as the sun made him temporarily blind, and having to blink several times to get his eyes to adjust. Looking to Magnus worried for the demon Zami turned his head to the side when they had held their hand out into the sunlight, “are you okay?”
Putting his hand into the sunlight, Magnus looked to his pale skin compared to Zami’s. He had never noticed how pale he had looked in comparison to a humans. The sunlight didn’t burn his skin, and felt warm. Pulling off the hood he felt the warm of the sun on his face and enjoyed it. “Who knew this light could feel so good,” Magnus closed his eyes as he enjoyed every bit of it.
“It’s just sunlight, do you not have a sun where you are from?” Zami tried not to laugh at Magnus who had seemed to be so new to their world.
“Yes but it doesn’t have heat, compared to this our world would seem cold to a human I think,” Magnus frowned and looked to Zami with a small frown, “Your world is like this?”
“”It has a sun yes, but this place is not home,” Zami muttered looking out of the cave.

Meeting room
“I don't think any of us have an answer for that” Kasius looked at Joker who seemed to be smiling about something.
“They just said to wait until their lord comes,” Quintus sighed, “and who knows when they’ll give us a straight answer…”
Kasius shook his head, “lets just join the others at the table for now, maybe they have some information” he said walking to the table.
Riku looked up up at Nakarah, “what do you think were here for? Some of these people don't even look human” she eyed the one with horns on their head.
“Well you got your own bodyguards, so of course they would back off” Balgrim laughed.
“You don't have magic in your world?” Kuthin looked at her confused. He thought magic was a universal thing. “Its kinda what you said, it's like an ability you can do or control, I myself am an elemental mage, my strong suits are anything connected to the natural elements of the world”
“We also have a really strong sorcerer in our party who can do all sorts of things, I mean he's be-” Kuthin was abruptly cut off by Balgrim who nudged him hard with his elbow.
“Be careful what you say about him, remember your last blunder with Kraus” he reminded the young mage who looked away from him. “Sorry, nothing personal” Balgrim looked at Aria smiling.
Yume tilted her head looking back at the person Haize talked to, “well, we can always introduce ourselves to him” he looked at her with a smile.
Walking over to Jarel Yume knelt down in front of him and held out her hand to him, “hi, I’m Yume, one of Haize's cellmates” she smiled to the man in front of her.
“Someone's seems fearless to make friends” Arcana said watching Yume and the male. Sighing she looked at the new people coming in. Her eyes widened, that blue hair, those lavender eyes, that look. She sprang to her feet, throwing the Void Walker into Haizes arms, the creature letting out a confused and scared yelping sound, and bolted to the other side of the room. “MASTER LOCH” Loch only had seconds to react, hearing the shriek of his name before being tackled harshly back into the tunnel.
Kuthin and Balgrim looked at each other and nodded, “called it” they said at the same time.
“N-nice to see you too Arcana” Loch weakly petted the girls head as she clung onto him for dear life, making it hard for him to get up or even breath.
Joker laughed at Rays comment, “yes, this is everyone, four have escaped the maze of cells, so our Lord is doing one more check up before he will grace us with his presence”
“If everyone would take a seat it would be even better, but some people like standing around or sitting in the floor like dumb animals” Jester commented looking at certain people.
Outside
Ice knelt down by the stream and slipped off her face mask that she had around her neck and dipped it into the ice cold water, hissing at the pins and needles she felt from the cold water, “blazes…” she cursed under her breath. She started to wring out the blood out of the mask when she noticed Zenos coming over to her.
“Something the matter?” It was odd not seeing him next to Magnus at all times. She pulled her hands out of the water and flexed her fingers a little, feeling them start to go numb. She wrung out the black material seeing that most of the water that came out of it was clear and not the dark red color.

Meeting Room
“I can’t be certain, but I doubt it’s anything good,” she replied to Riku as she made her way towards the chairs. Nsure of where to sit she decided to sit on the other side. Keeping Riku close as she sat across from Ray. Petting the kitsune’s head she glanced towards the three newcomers. ‘What is he doing here? She stifled a grown and looked to Riku, “No sign of your friend?”
“There are abilities though none that my pack possess,” Aria frowned unsure of what a wizard or sorcerer was. She gave a small shrug to Balgrim who had cut the other off, “It’s all foreign to me..” Brown ears lowered as she glanced to the others at the table, “How long have you two known each other?”
Startled by Yume, she was about to follow until the Void Walker was thrown into her hands. Looking towards the pink haired girl as hey clobbered one of the newcomers. “If you don’t wish to be seen, I could mask you,” Haiz offered as she walked towards Yume, watching the girl kneel down near Jarel. It was a little shocking to see, and she hoped that Jarel wouldn’t mess it up and cause everyone in the room to be against them.
Blue eyes blinked in shock at the sudden human in front of him. Recovering from being startled he took Yume’s hand carefully into his own, “Jarel, one of Haiz’s close friends I suppose you could say.” He glanced to the vampire who gave a small smile, unsure of what she was up to.
Stopping behind Yume, she watched Jarely sadly as she petted the Void Walker, “Be nice, we can trust her.”
“Then show her your true self,” Jarel replied with a shrug as he released Yume’s hand and turned his head as he watched Haiz. Knowing the vampire as he had, he had never seen her take down her ability for no one. Red eyes narrowed as he pondered on how much the vampire really did trust the ones she had been celled to.
“That’s so unfair,” Haiz grumbled as she looked to the Void Walker, toying at its fur gently between her fingers. Contemplating if she should so Yume or not, she bit her lip as she hesitated. Letting out a small sigh Haiz let the ability she used to become more human melt away. Red eyes looked sadly to Yume before showing one of her fangs It'sthe girl, “Its only cause I trust you. When most demons or humans see me, it strikes fear or hunger. So I hide what I am…”
“Only Haiz and I really have abilities, there is Zenos but you’ll be lucky to see what he can do. I just hope you aren’t on the receiving end,” Jarel shrugged as he looked to see more had started to sit at the table. “Oh and Haiz doesn’t really drink blood, not if she can help it anyway…” he smiled as Haiz glared at him, “Shouldn’t she know that tidbit?”
“I crave it still Jarel, I just have better control than others in our group…” Haiz grumbled as she quickly put her ability back up to where others wouldn’t notice. At least she had hoped no one had noticed as he looked around the room to see.
Taking a few steps back, Syus wasn’t sure at first if Loch knew the girl or not. When it had seemed that they had known each other, he glanced back into the room. Blue eyes fell to a demon and human talking, which had peaked his interest but he didn’t move towards them. Instead he moved to the red haired male sitting on the floor. “Is it okay if I sit next to you?”
“Don’t mind at all,” Zamar muttered as he looked to Syus, a little shocked that anyone would want to communicate with him. “I am only waiting for us to be released from here.”
“You’re not worried as to why we are here?” Sus asked a little shocked by the human he sat next to.
“Not really no, only to why so many,” Zamar shrugged and looked to the table that had started to fill up, “I don’t like following sheep.”
“Sheep?” Syus frowned confused by the metaphor.
“Those who do what they are told, rebellious is more fun. Don’t you think? Considering they haven’t really given us any clues as to why we are here. I don’t like being in places with so little information,” he gave a small smile to Syus as he extended his good hand to the demon, “I am Zamar, and you are?”
“Syus,” he replied with a small nod as he shook their hand, “I hope everything becomes clear soon as to why we are here…”
Ray shrugged as he smiled to Jester, “Let them be animals, at least then the lord will know where his guests stand. Might be better that way.” Looking to his brother, his eyes narrowed curious as to why they would mingle with a human.
Outside
“You said the water may not be safe, I just wanted to be sure nothing happens. We are safer together than apart, at least that is what Jarel tells us,” Zenos said shifting on his feet uneasy as he looked into the water. Seeing his reflection he quickly took a few steps back, not wishing for Ice to see him, and glanced towards Zami and Magnus, “I hope it’s okay…”
The two seemed to have stopped not wanting to go too far without them. Zenos could make out that they were talking but on what he couldn’t be certain. “Thank you for letting us tag along,” he knew it couldn’t have been easy for Ice considering what Magnus had done to her. Feeling a little at fault for not doing more to stop the demon from scaring Ice, he looked to the ground and watched the grass move in the small breeze.

Meeting room
Riku looked around, her ears perked up in order to hear Yume in case she was hidden behind some people she couldn't see passed. She spotted her green eyed friend with two other people, one looked like Haize who was in the cell with them, but the other was unknown to her. “Found her! But it looks like she’s talking to someone” she looked a little upset, her ears lowering slightly.
“I wonder what they have in your world” Kuthin looked back at her, “but things like portals, like you mentioned, are hard to do, just how strong are your magic users?” he said with a tilt of his head.
“It's probably not like the magic back home, who knows, there are probably people stronger than Loch” Balgrim laughed, earning a glare from Kuthin. “But anyway, the two of us have known each other for two years?” he looked at the mage who shook his head.
“Three years, your and I met when we went to go pick up Arcana from Madam.
“But these two,” Balgrim grinned seeing Kasius and Quintus walking over to them with a person they assumed they shared a cell with, “they've known each other for longer”
“Aria this is Kasius and Quintus, their also with us, though i'm not sure who you are” Kuthin eyed Nakarah.
“She's trustworthy” Kasius nodded.
“If you could please,” it whispered, “I’m pretty sure my presence, if I wasn't already spotted, could be bad” The void Walker tried to lay flat in Haize's arms as much as it could.
Yume smiled and shook his hand as he grabbed hers, “it’s nice to meet you Jarel”. She looked between the two as they spoke, confused, true self?
She blinked a few times seeing Haize shift appearances, “can't say I saw that coming…” she then smiled, “thank you for trusting me enough to show me, I'm sorry I don't have something to show you to prove that you can trust me” she rubbed the back of her head glancing at Jarel.
Jester huffed in annoyance, she liked order and nothing about this was order. “Maybe our Lord has taken too m-” she silenced herself when she saw Joker look in her direction, “sorry” she whispered.
Joker nodded and closed his eye, “he should be here any moment, he has confirmed that the four are going to venture out, though how you will all meet up is another question”
Outside
“Its safe to touch, just numbingly cold” Ice shook out her hand before dunking the face mask back into the water hoping she won't have to keep her hands in for long.
“If you don't mind me asking, who is this Jarel person? You mentioned them a few times now” she shot him a curious glance before turning her attention back to her mask which she was satisfied was now blood free.
She looked at the two bottles she had aside, was the next question she had for herself. Was the water drinkable?
Opening the bottle she dipped it into the stream and emptied its contents a few times washing out what was in it previously. Dipping it one more time, letting in a little bit of water. She looked at the contents before taking a sip of it. She instantly winced and put a hand to her forehead, “It’s cold, really really cold, but drinkable” she tried to smile though her wincing and handed Zenos the second bottle.
“And don't worry about it, it’s best that we keep together like your friend says, and as much as I want to, I can't really stay mad at Magnus. I was covered in blood, we were in a small space and obviously angry” she tried to sound reasonable about the situation, her mind slowly thawing from her brain freeze.
Back at the door a figure appeared, a male with long silver hair clad in blue. They removed the rocks that were keeping the door opened and smiled as it closed, the door disappearing entirely as it closed, not even the door frame remained.

Meeting Room
“Why does that upset you? Is it not good to make new friends?” Nakarah asked petting Riku’s ear as she looked to Kuthin, Quintas, Aria, Balgrim, and Kasius. A little confused by Kasius’ statement, “My name is Nakarah, Kasious had said I could tag along. Unless it’s a problem of course…”
“If you count the portals, windows, barriers, and telepathy among them all. I suppose they could be, but their height is from your hand to mid forearm,” Aria replied thinking on the shadow creatures back home, it had made her a little homesick. There was nothing she could have done about the situation she was in. Aria then looked from Nakarah to Kasius and Quintus with a small smile, “Nice to meet you, I’m Aria.”
Making the Void Walker look like a shadow of what Riku looked like only black and purple, Haiz smiled down at it, “There now you look like a cute kitsune.”
“We are used to being rejected by our own kind,” Jarel tried to explain as he glanced to the table a little uneasy. “There are some who can see through Haiz’s disguise, as well as another within our own group. Once that gets out on what they are it's expected to be feared and attacked, it’s a natural response. I’m protective of them…”
“Jarel way to kill the mood,” Haiz rolled her eyes and knelt down next to Yume, “The two to cause us possible trouble is the werewolf at the table and Jesper. The one that may cause a disaster is the werewolf due to them not liking Jarel's race.” Shaking her head she petted the Void Walker, “But we will tackle that as it happens, just know Jarel really isn’t bad once you get to know him.” She looked to Yume with a small smile, hoping Jarel hadn’t scared the woman.
Jarel watched Yume curiously he had expected many things to have happened. But the young woman had seemed subtle overseeing Haiz’s true self. “Thank you for helping Haiz out of the cell, I am glad she is safe.”
Outside
Putting his hands behind his head Zenos shrugged, “Magnus, Haiz and myself respect him. Though he is full demon and not a halfling like some of us, he gave us a place of safety from other demons in our world. Our world is not exactly kind…” Watching Ice fill the bottles he turned his head to the side as he took the one she had handed to him. Seeing where the water reflected through it to his hand he quickly moved it behind him. “I’m glad you can forgive him, he really is the newest to our group… He’s been through a lot…”
“At least we won’t go thirsty,” Zenos replied watching Ice get brain freeze, and working on filling the rest of the bottles.
Following Zami carefully through the rocky terrain, Mangus frowned feeling uneasy as they moved further away from the others. “We aren’t going to wait?”
“Look around, there is no cover to hide in for miles, we need to find a place to lay down at least until sunrise...if it does rise here,” Zami looked to the sky for a brief second looking for any signs of a moon, “Ice will catch up, she can care for herself despite what you may think of her.” Zami looked at his feet as he tried to avoid tripping over stones, “I really hope there are no poisonous snakes, that could be bad.”
“Snakes?” Turning his head to the side as he missed stepped and almost fell. Catching himself he looked towards Zami puzzled.
“Yeah...they are serpents, if you have those where you are from, with poison in their teeth,” Zami glanced to Magnus making sure they didn’t fall.

Meeting room
“Sorry, but with all that's happening I’m on edge” Kuthin mumbled, feeling Kasius’ eyes on him. “I guess if he says your fine, your fine”
“I think your just grumpy” Riku looked at the white haired male before closing her eyes, enjoying the pets she was getting from Nakarah. When Yume was done talking with whoever those people were she would seek her out, she was sure of that.
“He’s always grumpy” Balgrim laughed. Kuthin shot him an annoyed look making Quintus and Kasius laugh.
“It's a pleasure meeting you all” Quintus said with a smile, it was nice to know that not everyone seemed scary or intimidating of any sort. Maybe they could work together to get back to their own homes?
The Void walker sighed heavily, “thank you, I don't know what those two would do if they had spotted me, I believe the male is the one that locked me in that infernal light room” it said as it studied Joker closely.
“Well no need to worry about me,” Yume smiled at Jarel, “and you just added another Ali to help you out if those guys try to mess with you” Yume punched her fist into her open palm with a grin, “and no need to thank me, it was a team effort, plus it also helps that we found a cheat code” Yume glanced at the void walker who looked like Riku now.
In an area where no one had been looking appeared a door. It suddenly slammed open allowing a light blue light to pour into the room. The torches that once gave off an orange glow now flickered with a blue flame instead. Through the door came two very familiar faces, Edyn and Noir. Jester shot up from her seat and ran to Jokers side where the two stood and watched the two coming through the door.
Edyn winked and waved to Balgrim and Ray, the two who had interested her the most. Noir locked eyes on Jester, still obviously mad about getting a door shut in his face. The collar was missing from his neck.
“It's lovely seeing all of you again, and for most of you it's lovely meeting you” Edyn said with a giggle. Joker and Jester shot each other the same annoyed look to each other. “I know some, well, let's be honest, all of you have been wondering about the person who brought you here. Well that time is now!”
As Edyn and Noir stepped aside and stood beside the door frame a rather tall male stepped out. His hair was long, messy and ended at his knees. He had eyes that were a bright aqua color. Through the loose fitting clothing could be different shades of blue scale like patterns on his skin, mostly seen on his arms and on his chest. Once in the room the door closed behind him and disappeared like it was never there in the first place.
He smiled and bowed slightly, “sorry for taking so long to meet you all, but I had to see off our four straggles of this group, they won't be making it”
‘Seems four right away got a strike…’ Joker thought to himself watching his Lord and awaiting orders.
Outside
“Is there such a thing as a kind world?” Ice asked, not to Zeno, but just in general. “But it's nice that you have someone you can look up to, I hope we can get you two back to him” she said with a soft smile.
Looking back at Zami and Magnus at the mouth she put the filled water bottle in her bag and stood up, dusting herself off, “water will keep us for a while, people can last ten days without food, but no more than five without water, we got lucky because we have no idea what's out there…”
The sun remained in a position where it could signify dusk or dawn, just over the horizon but remained fixed in its position, its golden light just barely touching the cave where the two men stood.
Ice looked back to where the door was, thinking they should take one more look for things they could use, maybe a weapon for Magnus and Zeno but noticed only cave wall, "Zeno...the door is gone..."

Meeting Room
As the torches changed from an orange glow to a soft blue glow, the room had gone silent and all eyes fell to Edyn and Noir. Jarel watched from where he sat ready to launch if an attack were to happen. He wouldn’t let harm come to those closest to him. Haiz looked over her shoulder towards the two who had entered the room, a chill crawled over her skin as she moved closer to Jarel.
Aria watched the two who had entered, a cold chill came over her as she saw Noir among them. This can’t be good, grey green eyes looked around for Kuthin curious of their reaction. She knew he hadn’t trusted their cell mate, and now it felt she was right not to. This is starting to feel more like a trap and we’re just waiting to be slaughtered.
“What’s become of the ones who didn’t make it here?” Zamar asked when the quest of honor finally showed up.
“Isn’t it obvious? They die,” Ray replied with an evil smirk showing his sharp teeth, “Four less to worry about.”
Why must you cause trouble in the open brother, Syus thought as he glanced to the strange male who had entered the room.
For his sake that better not be the case, Zamar glared at Ray who seemed to be enjoying themselves considering the situation. Keeping his hand on his blade, he was tempted to take off a good foot off the person.
Watching the two red heads, and glancing towards the door as it disappeared, Nakarah kept the Void Walker close. "Who is that?" She whispered quietly wondering if the Void Walker knew any of the new three that had entered the room. "I'm guessing they aren't to be trusted.."
Looking around the room from his location, Jesper frowned at the hostile air between Zamar and Ray. It didn’t seem like they would back down until things started to become more clear. Jesper glanced to the figure standing between Edyn and Noir. The guy was intimidating as he slowly approached the table edge to get a better look at the person. “If this is truly a place where there is no blood shed, care to explain what is going on before there is a blood bath all over your table and possibly the walls?” Jesper asked pointing to the two hostile of the bunch in the room, knowing it could quickly escalate.
Outside
“I suppose not really no,” Zenos admitted with a small shrug, “Hopefully we will run into the others that were taken here. I think you may like the other two.” He gave a small smile as he followed her gaze to the outside world then to the way they had come. “We’re already out here, there is no going back now…”
Shaking his head he looked to the other two as they headed for the mouth of the cave. What is more dangerous, night or day here? Zenos wasn’t sure he wanted to know the answer as he looked back to Ice. “Shall we join them? For the most part you don’t smell of blood, at least not as strongly.”
Keeping the water bottle behind him, Zenos watched Ice tuck the other into her bag. Only two, if we share it may only last a short while.. he frowned as he glanced back towards Magnus and Zami, Hopefully this isn’t the only water source out here..
“We don’t have anything like that back home unless you count vampires. But they don’t have venom.” Magnus frowned watching Zami shake their head, “Though this world really is something.” Looking around them Magnus pulled the hoodie around himself as he glanced back on ahead.
Catching himself from taking a bad tumble due to mistepping, Zami shrugged. “All we can do is hope to find, I guess who you are looking for and my brother so I can hit him.”
“You are very worried about him, is there a reason?”
The male turned around quickly causing Magnus to take a step back. “That is none of your concern.” Their eyes narrowed until he put his hands up in surrender.
“I meant nothing by it, just normal siblings fight. Thought all were that way,” Magnus mumbled as Zami turned and started walking again.
“Lets just try to locate where we are and which way to go from there. Something tells me we are far from the other groups of people that were brought here,” Zami grumbled as he picked a better path to travel down the mountain on.

Meeting room
Arcana held onto Lochs arm tightly as the new trio walked into the room, “Master Loch…” she whispered to the blue haired male who put a hand on hers.
“I know” he whispered back as he walked them to the table where the rest of their friends were, noticing Kuthin and the girl that was with them watching the boy with platinum hair, wondering if they had met up with him before.
Kuthin watched Noir with narrowed eyes, he didn't seem to notice Aria and himself, but what annoyed him the most was that he had his collar off, while Loch and him were stuck with theirs on. He noticed Balgrim beside him glaring at the woman who was, winking at him? And another person in the room, what the hell happened while he was away?
Yume watched the trio walked into the room and felt a cold shiver up her spine, eyeing the taller male that stood in the doorway, something about him felt...off.
The void walker’s ears went back locking its eyes on the taller male, “That’s Judgement, the lord of this place,” it whispered to Haize, “some call him a God”
“The four that are not with us are fine for now, though their actions outside of this room will put them to the test to see if they are truly worthy” the taller male seemed to grin wider, making some in the room uneasy.
“Worthy?” Loch asked what he was sure other people were wondering.
“To live, to be frank,” he said with a short laugh, “besides Zamar, you can communicate with your brother and check on his well being, so there's no worry to worry about him, you on the other hand…” he smiled lazily and turned his attention to Jespar.
“And to answer your question Jespar, you are all here to be judged. There are people here who have made questionable choices in their lives and they should answer for their consequences, but, this world is to see if they can redeem themselves, and I as Lord of this realm, will be the final judge on that. Thus allow me to introduce myself, my name is Judgement, Lord of Gaia”
“You twenty have been lucky enough to be chosen by Lord Judgement personally” Edyn chimed in with a giggle.
“But we should note that there are some innocent people within this group, possibly to help those who have wronged, or become tainted by those who have sinned” Noir finally broke his gaze from Jester and looked at the group in front of them, waving to Aria and Kuthin with a grin.
Outside
“I suppose your right…” Ice muttered looking away from where the door once was, ‘would have been nice to have the room to run back into just in case something happened…’ she mentally sighed, “It’s all on us now…I hope we can meet up with your friends and Zami has a brother that we need to find too, or have them find us…”
“And I gatta say, I'm glad I don't smell like it anymore,” Ice pulled at the tank top a little examining it to make sure there was no transfer when she changed, “don't wanna trigger Magnus again” she looked back to the two boys and saw that they seemed to be butting heads, worried she followed after them.
“Everything alright up there?” she fought the urge to run after them, but it didn't seem like a good idea to take it too fast.

Meeting Room[/b]
A god? Nakarah frowned as she glanced towards Jesper. It didn’t surprise her any that Jesper was already asking questions and trying to get answers for everyone. Shaking her head she looked to the Void Walker disguised in her arms, “Is he truly a God though? Or does he use his ability to simulate that of a God, or has the power gone to his head?” She glanced back to the one called Judgement, her eyes narrowed as she tried to figure the guy out.
Does he know everything? Down to our names and abilities, Zamar scowled at the thought as he tried to figure out just what Judgement had wanted from the group. “What do you get out of it? I’m sure it’s not just to redeem our souls that we are here.”
‘Zami, be careful, there is some guy in this room that seems to know a lot about everyone. Names and abilities, please stay safe,’ Zamar warned before cutting off communication with his brother. He didn’t know what exactly the extent of Judgement’s ability was. If they could listen in on their conversations he was certain it would end badly for himself or his brother.
The more Judgement spoke the more he had liked about the person. To kill someone and call it mercy or Judgement was interesting. A so-called purpose to kill without it being called murder or a mass killing. Watching how this played out, Ray looked towards Edyn and Noir, the woman seemed to be enjoying herself.
Syus rested his head on the table, quietly listening to the conversation going on around him. So he determines if we are worthy to live or not? Either he is bluffing or he has his minions do his dirty work. Closing his eyes he reflected on his life before shrugging. If we die we die.
“I don’t like this,” Jarel whispered low enough for Haiz to hear, watching the nod and step closer to him. “Who is he to determine our lives?”
“Jarel, don’t anger him,” Haiz turned to face the demon kneeling down on their feet as if ready to pounce at the right opportunity. “We don’t know what he is capable of.”
“I still don’t like it,” Jarel mumbled glaring at the figure called Judgement.
“Like it or not we are stuck here, there are five of them and one of you. I wouldn’t attack him unless you know you can win. Who knows attacking him may put the other two in danger,” Haiz hissed kneeling next to Jarel and putting a hand on the demon’s shoulder, “Besides we need to know if Zenos and Magnus are truly safe.”
Aria slowly got to her feet, fighting the urge to hide under the table or someplace dark. She looked to Judgement unsure she wanted to know the answer to her question. “So we are here for you to pass judgement. I’m assuming if we fail we remain here or worse. But what happens if we pass?”
Jesper froze not expecting the Lord to know any of their names or abilities, certainly not out of the blue as they had done. His body felt cold as he stared at Judgement unable to move, Who is this guy? Can he really know so much about everyone here?
Outside
Let's hope no one else gets hurt until Jarel is around… Zenos thought as he followed after Ice. Picking his way carefully through the rocky brush and looking from Magnus to the samurai. Something must have happened as they appeared to be mad at Magnus. Letting out a soft sigh, Zenos roared over Ice’s shoulder to be certain that Magnus had heard him, “You better not be causing more trouble!”
“I’m not!” Magnus jumped and looked back towards Ice and Zenos almost causing himself to fall from miss stepping when he jumped.
Rolling his eyes Zami shook his head as he looked over his shoulder and glanced towards Ice. “Yeah, let's just try to figure out how long the sun will be up before we need to find camp…” He decided to explain it later as he waited for the two stragglers to catch up to them. “Please tell me you have something to make fire with? If not we may be needing to look for stones or other means to make one…”
What is going on that would make Zamar warn us? Zami frowned as he tried to send to his brother but the communication seemed blocked. Growling to himself he looked on ahead-looking towards the sky. I hope everything is fine where he is…

Meeting room
“No one has dared question him, and if they have, I'm not sure if they are around to tell the tale” the Void Walker picked its head up more to get a better look at the man and the two accompanying him. “He just has a lot of people working with him that have special abilities” its tail flicked in annoyance.
“Lord Judgement gets the satisfaction that he rids your world of a few less horrible people” Noir said with a grin, “when he does visit your world to see that man, it's not as unsightly if he had never done it in the first place”
Edyn matched her brother's gin, “you’re not the first group to be judged, the largest yes, but certainly not the last”.
Judgment nodded in approval, “I can't get everyone, but wouldn't you agree a few rotten people in a large society gone would do some good?”
Turning his attention to Aria he smiled, almost happy that she spoke what was on her mind, “yes true, if you do not pass my judgment you will die here, but if you do pass you will be sent back to your world and homes, exactly where you were when you were transported here,'' he chuckled, “if I kept you any longer I fear Koray and Samara would worry that something bad would happen to you, especially since you are in a room with some people you don't get along with” his eyes glanced over to Haize and Jarel.
Yume gritted her teeth, he said some names so they must have been some people close to her, so he even knows people who aren't in the room with them, family possibly. She sprang to her feet, “just how much do you know about us?”
Judgement looked at Yume and smiled, tilting his head, “I do quite a lot of research when I choose those are about to be judged, Yume Umino, little sister to Zeros and Daughter of Broly, or should I say Mr. Snuggles” he said with a laugh. He saw her eyes widen, the color in her face paled, “but please, there is nothing to be worried about” he smiled from ear to ear as he watched the mixed emotions in the room.
Outside
Ice jumped, startled at the sudden roar from Zenos to Magnus, looking at them they seemed like they were arguing about something, “Zami you better not be causing any trouble either” she called up to her friend. She picked up her pace so she could catch up to the two ahead of them, she didn't want them to get too far ahead in case something were to happen. Rule number of adventuring was never split the party, and they already split off from the main group.
“Well I can say there's one positive outlook on all of this” she smiled, glancing at Zenos, “this sun doesn't seem to have any affect on your kind here” ‘I know a certain wolf who would love this for her and her boyfriend’ she smirked slightly.
Outside of the cavern was a large area covered in grass and scattered bushes along the land. The grass would move on its own from time to time, indication that something was moving from within the blades of grass, or maybe it was in the wind making it move on its own? Far off into the distance was what looked like a small hut that was perched on a hill incline, it was average looking, made of mostly wood with what looked like stone shingles. No lights shone through the windows and the chimney on top had no smoke coming out of it, it looked vacant.

Meeting Room
"So best not to question...got it," Nakarah frowned as she petted the Void Walker in her arms. She glanced to the one sitting at the table who had gone pale then to the other girl who had spoke out. Both seemed unpleasant about the news the God of this world had offered. Research? Does that mean he had been watching us all before coming here?
Shivering at the thought she glanced towards Haiz who had seemed to look more sickly than before. "He knows everyone's secret...this can't be good..." Nakarah whispered more to herself than to the Void Walker.
Brown eyes narrowed at the sound of her adoptive parents. Aria's nails dug into the wooden table as she tried to keep control over her emotions. "So it would be like we never left? I'm guessing whatever is going on back home wouldn't exist once I am back."
Nothing to worry about but our lives.. Haiz growled and felt a hand on her wrist causing her to jump. Looking back she noticed it was Jarel's hand and gave her the look. She reluctantly slunk to the ground near Jarel's ear. "This isn't good..."
"They will find out sooner or later, I don't have a big issue with it as long as it doesn't cause us more trouble. I have a feeling the group will be divided either way," Jarel hissed glancing from Judgement then to the two lackies near him. How much chaos does he want to cause before his departure is the real question...
The power to make it like we never left....If he can really do that, maybe he really is a God.... Zamar shook his head unsure of what to really believe. What he did know was if he was being watched, why hadn't he felt it. Putting a hand to an old wound he glanced around the room. Everyone else seemed to have another reason for their discomfort. And he couldn't blame them.
Jesper watched Nakarah quietly, he noticed some discomfort but not as bad as the others in the room. She seems to be adapting well... Jesper then glanced to Ray who had moved from the table to join another near the wall. The man gave him the creeps, and it was hard to ignore.
"What do you make of this world brother? It's like having something handed to us," Ray whispered across the table as he glanced around the room.
"Is it wise to kill off our world and into another that we know nothing about?" Syus mumbled under his breath as he glanced to his brother, "Killing these people wouldn't be worth it, nor as fun for you."
"Kill them with little consequence, are you scared of the one who brought us here?" Ray shook his head and looked back to his brother, "Why should he have all the fun?"
"If you know what's good for you... I'd keep your head down," Syus looked to Judgment, Not like he would listen though... I hope he doesnt do anything stupid.
Outside
"That is one good thing about this world so far," Zenos replied smiling back to Ice as he followed close beside her. He looked to Magnus and Zami who seemed to have calmed down, though he wasnt sure what had caused the small spat in the first place.
"Sorry none of us have the ability to make fire," Magnus frowned remembering Jarel's ability, but even that wasn't really warm. He glanced back to Zenos and Ice who were now catching up to them.
"Stones it is," Zami looked around them for some good stones they could use to make a fire with. Until something in the distance caught his attention. It was too far to really make out what it was, "Do you see that?"
Looking to what Zami was looking at, Magnus shrugged unsure of what the black looking shape was. "Maybe we should stay away from it?"
"Shelter is shelter, besides it could have clues," Zami looked to Ice and Zenos, ignoring Magnus protest and mumbles of traps, and bait. "There seems to be something in that direction we may be able to stay in, or figure out more of where we are."
Coming into ear shot of the conversation of the shelter, Zenos looked to Magnus puzzled on the demons reaction, "And your not happy about the news why?"
"I dont trust anything this world offers. It could be a trap and we are the bait," Magnus mumbled as he moved closer to Zenos.
"We won't know until we get closer, besides it beats sleeping under the sky. Who knows what comes out at night here," Zenos teased causing Magnus to stiffen.
"To the structure!" Magnus shouted and started to make his way towards it, not waiting for the others.
Zenos shook his head laughing under his breath, "If in doubt a little scare always works." He looked to Zami and Ice, "Shall we follow?"

Meeting room
Judgement smiled as he watched everyone's reactions, it was something he could never grow tired of. Everyone gave different expressions for different reasons, each person having a thought go through their mind.
"But I won't have you stay in this room forever" he spoke up snapping his fingers. Two doors appeared behind Edyn and Noir, each door giving off a glowing color at it's boarder, shifting colors ever so often.
"I will have you go through one more door of your choosing. It will lead you to the outside, differencing in terrain and temperature, but you must choose wisely"
A door behind Noir shifted to a blue green color as Judgement opened it revealing an oceanic Sean completed with fish and other water based creatures. Judgement put his hand through the threshold of the door and removed it after a moment, showing that his hand was dripping wet, revealing that it was a real ocean and not some illusion.
"You may want to talk amongst yourselves, or your friends, or make some new ones," he laughed, "but as you see, with one of these doors you will have someone accompanying you" he snapped his fingers once again as a third door appeared, Joker and Jester stood from their seats and stood in front of the new door.
"I will say this though, once you choose a door you can no longer turn back. But since I am fair, Zamar and Quintus, since you were in the smaller party and the first ones to arrive you two are allowed one "reset" of a door for yourself or your party" Judgement held up one finger as he spoke, looking at both Zamar and Quintus. The smaller male shrinking under his gaze.
"I will give you a moment to collect your thoughts and work on your game plan, or," he grinned clasping his hands together, "if you have any questions ask away. I won't be joining you so this is your chance, but be wise with your time"
"So we're definitely not through that.door with that crazy witch" Balgrim quickly spoke up turning back towards his party.
"And there's no way ere going with that twin of hers" Kuthin added, looking toward Aria, "he's just too creepy to be alone with him again, right?"
"So your saying the only "safe" choice is with those two?" Arcana looked towards the door with Joker and Jester. "But thanks to Quintus we have one reset, so we have to choose carefully".
Loch watched carefully as the doors shifted between colors behind the four "guides". Some were solid colors, some were a mixture of two, but no more than that.
'Just what kind of places he would send us? And where do we go from there' his eyes drifted towards the four people standing in front of the doors. Two of his party members seemed to have issues with the two that stood at Judgment's side before, so they would be going through the one with two guides, but nothing was set in stone.
"Outside" the Void Walker whispered, the flame in it's chest seemed to glow brighter and flicker wildly. It looked up at Nakarah, "I haven't been outside in such a long time, but this means I would no longer be of use to you or the others," it's ears lowered slightly.
Yume shook her head a couple of times before placing her hands on the side of her face, her hands clapping against her cheeks as she tried to regain her composure. First thing first. It may draw some sort of attention towards her but she needed to find Riku and get her back, if she was even in the room that is. Bringing her fingers to her lips she whistled, short but loud enough.
Rikus ears perked up, "sorry, Yume is calling me" she said as she sprinted towards the green eyed girl, jumping into her arms once the were reunited.
"Missed me?" Riku said with a toothy grin that earned a giggle out of Yume. She looked at Haize and their new friend who seemed just as shaken up as some of the others, "long time no see" she smiled, hoping with here now she could ease some of the tension.
Outside
"If we need fire I can help out with that about," Ice paused looking at her right hand and saw three small lights at her fingertips, "three more times before I have to sleep to reset my ability".
She looked up at the structure the boys were looking at, ' that just screams trap' she thought, agreeing with Magnus. Her face reading she wasn't fond of the idea, but Zenos was also right, shelter from the unknown night would be nice. She mentally sighed.
"We better stick together but stay on our guard" she said as she quickened her pace after Magnus, her hand resting on the hilt of her blade, preparing for anything that could come for them.

The room had seemed to go quiet until whispering broke out among groups. There must be a trick to this, he had watched Judgement closely when the doors had appeared. Looking to the one Judgement had opened, golden eyes watched the door for sometime. Slowly looking back to the clear leader of this world. The “reset” seemed too good to be true. “If I chose to see my brother, I’m guessing I wouldn’t be alone?” He eyed the two closest to Judgement.
“We should keep our distance from him,” Aria mumbled for them to hear, but hopefully not too loud for the one they wished to avoid to hear. She then looked to the others, “which door should we take?” she frowned as she looked to the doors. They both gave her chills as she slowly got to her feet moving the chair she had been sitting in. Looking nervously towards Judgment knowing one person already had asked a question, and they deserved their full attention. She slowly headed towards one of the doors, watching the hugh of it.
"It'll be okay, at least you'll be out of the tunnels and darkness," Nakarah replied petting the Void Walker's head with a small smile. She then looked to Jarel and Kasius unsure which door to choose herself. The sea seemed like a dead giveaway, do not enter.
Jesper looked to the two doors unsure which to choose. One was clear, not the wet door, even though he could swim he doubted shore would be close by. The others didn't seem any better. Where there is a door to water there could be a door to fire, desert, or worse. To stay together or drift apart? It had felt like a trap, like Judgement wanted to split them up.
His attention then went to Aria who had tried to be quiet with their chair but had failed. He watched as she looked over the doors going back and forth between two in particular. Turning his head he wondered what they could be doing.
Looking to the doors that had appeared, Haiz glanced from everyone to the room before looking to Jarel. "Which door do we take?"
Stairing at the doors for some time, Jarel shook his head, "I can't be sure." He glanced to Narkarah then to Kasius, no one so far had decided on a door. The soft whistle caught his attention as he looked to Yume who now held a kitsune in their hands. "What will you do?"
Biting her lip gently, Haiz looked to Yume. She had hoped to have their company but their paths could be going two different directions. Maybe we will meet again, Haiz smiled at the thought before looking to Jarel, "What door would they most likely be behind?"
"There is one thing I am certain of, and that is neither of those doors are going to lead us any closer to them. The real question is, which door will bring us a little closer. These two could bring us miles away from them," Jarel looked to the soft Hugh of the doors pondering the best option.
Watching everyone contemplate on what door to take, Syus glanced to his brother who didn't seemed worried in which door. A soft growl escaped his throat as he looked back to the doors. He didn't have his brother's confidants in just choosing a door. The soft hugh kept changing between colors, making difficult to determine what door.
"Relax brother, it'll be much easier. We are already back together so what are you so worried about?" Ray said with a small laugh as he placed his hands behind his head.
"More like what is on the other side should worry you," Syus mumbled under his breath glaring at the demon across the table.
"We may need that once inside," Zami replied chasing after her and Magnus. Looking to the slowly looming building as they got slowly closer.
This can't be good, chasing after the three, he gripped the water bottle tightly as he looked around them. It was odd to not see anything for miles, no animals, nothing in the sky. I hate quiet.
Reaching the building Zami pulled out his sword before slowly approaching the door. Looking from Magnus who seemed jumpy and hid behind Zenos who had an arm around them while the other was ready for anything. He then looked to Ice, "Ready?" Not really expecting an answer from any of them, in fear they'd all chicken out. Zami opened the door; sword raised and ready for anything that may come at them from within.
