W-What? She can read my mind? Stop it! These are my thoughts >_<. "M-my mind has a mind of its own, I wasn't t-thinking about that at all.". I said. I leaned over to Sana and said, "I'll tell you about it later". Seriously, stop reading my mind Gwen q-q

Know each other? Yep.

"Yeah, I know this guy. This is Archemiday, a renowned bard from the days of the Morai invasion. You young whippersnappers wouldn't remember." I wink and pat Arch on the back. "For some reason, he thinks I'm going to scrap him. It's not like I'm the Finder anymo-" Wait, they might still hate me. "-or anything. Only the Finder would scrap you for no reason, right?" I laugh nervously. My hair has no business being in my face right now.

This sounds like a good time to change the subject.

I brush a hair out of my face and examine the new girl. "So...Sanaca, is it? Nice to meet you. I'm Gwen."

Awkward!

Sanaca stared suspiciously at the two Knights, there was something peculiar about the way they were both acting, but she just couldn't tell.

"Well, if you two know each other, would you like to join our little team, Gwen? Any friend of Arche, is a friend of mine!" Sanaca's face lit up with a smile, but then she frowned. "And what's this about, dismantling? Or scrapping? And, what, Finder?"

Awkward...

My darn impulsiveness is getting the better of me. I thought I was quieter than this. "Erm...oh, it's nothing, just pointless, nervous rambling. I think I'll stick with you guys, but I'm hesitant to 'join your team,' since I don't know you guys that well. B-but I appreciate the offer!" I salute them and step out the door to have a look around. "I'll be right back, guys. Just gettin' the lay of the land." I shut the door and vault up to the roof.

Nice view.

Awkward?

Sanaca tilted her head curiously. There was definetely something going on between Gwen and Archemiday, but she didn't want to pry and abuse their privacy, so she ignored it.

"Shall we head back to the Inn now? With Gwen tagging along, we might need to make some adjustments for her to have a place to sleep." Sanaca said to the strangely off edge Archemiday.

(This is a different Arch, thin.)

"There is one problem. Gwen is a Valkyrie, and they are out to capture me, remember? She doesn't seem to remember that order, and she is thinking of the wrong Arch. I'm going to play along though. If she at any time tries to capture me, she is gone, alright? And yes, lets head back.". I felt in my pocket to make sure my pass was still there, and it was.

Day II-- Noonish

I tossed the bag of crowns on the desk of the innkeeper. "Told you." With no futher comment. I walked upstairs to get my things and I headed out. I accepted the fact my leg wasn't going to get any better. If somebody could probably treat it, that would be amazing. But it would probably cost me a fortune, I got lucky scaring the man in the bazaar. Probably not going to happen again. I rushed out of the inn, which wasn't a good idea, it really put a number on my leg. I decided to take the shop keeper's idea and search for people in need. I looked all around, I bumped into the CSLG (Cheap Shot Lute Guy), the Sanaca girl, and some other knight that I had never seen before. Mr. Lute seemed to be flustered and uneasy. I didn't really care about Mr. Lute's woman troubles. I walked around the bend into an alley, to my surprise (well sort of, it kind of seemed surprising at the moment) there was a woman getting mugged. I ran over there as fast as I could, (which wasn't very fast) and blindsided the guy. He looked dazed, he hadn't been expecting an assailant.

*Cue Battle Theme*

((I'm going to do a wierd format for my battles with NPC's, just watch. From the beginning now))

Drewaq- Blindside: 37 Damage

Bandit- Punch: 20 Damage

Drewaq- Blaster: 40 Damage

Bandit- Knife (CRITICAL): 60 Damage

Drewaq- Blaster: 30 Damage

Drewaq wins! Loots 2,500 Crowns off of the Bandit.

*Cue Victory Music*

I panted, that knife wasn't expected. Another reason to get to a doctor.

"No problem," I told the lady. She walked away from me, as if I was some sort of monster. "Wh-what?" I asked. She ran away. I coughed into my hand. Blood... The last thing I thought before everything went black was, "I seem to really like doing this..."

(( Hush, child.

lol derp

(OOC: Gwen is going to be very upset when she realizes that it isn't her Archie.)

The town was laid out like an old western town, with a main street running from north to south and rows of buildings on either side. She was standing atop the Armor Shop. On the east side of the street, beginning at the south end, stood the Blade Shop, Guns & Explosives Shop, Armor Shop, Shield Shop, and the Vendetta Inn. On the west side of the street stood a row of town houses.

Not a bad layout.

I swung back down from the roof and through the door. I planted my hands on my hips. "Nice town you've got here. I'm gonna go reserve a spot at the inn, then go exploring. Anyone wanna come with?"

"I already have a spot at the inn, I'd be glad to explore with you though.". While talking, I opened up a database and started reading through it. Archemiday, had an arch drive, fought morai, saved several knights in a selfless defense without a weapon, disappeared when they entered the sanctuary. Interesting. I decided to read into Gwen, as it had been a few years since my fall. Darn, password locked. Maybe I could find this other Arch. Hmm... Location... Deceased. Killed by an unknown knight when he caved into the swarms insanity twice. So, I have to make sure Gwen does not see me with my wings or odds are she will be angry, and might remember the orders. After Gwen reserved a space at the inn, we met outside. "Where should we explore?". I asked

Thinslayer

Exploring!

"Most mountains near populated areas tend to have paths running through them, or vice versa. I think we should explore those first." I extended my swords and twirled them. "Besides, I this place is sort of a prison, right? There's gotta be walls and guards, and I'm keen on finding them." I began to jog towards the mountains, and beckoned Arch to follow.

I think I'm going to like this guy.

Mhmm, I'm lost again.

(OOC: What exactly did you mean by 'opening a database' Arche? Since I didnt really get to join the mountain exploration, can you look for supplies there too Arche? This event occurred right after Ise's not so subtle hint, and right before Gwen literally swings back in. [OH GAWD A DOG JUST GOT HIT BY A CAR T_T ITS SO SAD!!!] And what did you mean by vice versa, Thin?)

"Wait, was that?" Sanaca peered out the door. Sounds of violence sounded from the alley near the shop. "Don't worry about me, I'll meet up with you later. I'm sure you'll be fine chilling with Gwen." Sanaca called out as she rushed out of the shop, after Drewaq. She arrived just in time to see Drewaq leaning against a wall, heavily wounded, but appearing victorious. "Are you okay?" Sanaca said, rushing towards him urgently. "You're that guy that faked being a bandit at the Inn, what are you trying to get yourself into?" Sanaca could tell that Drewaq had serious injuries that needed to be dealt with immediately. "Let's get you back to the Inn, now. What's your name anyways?"

(OOC: It is indeed! Kudos for guessing correctly. xP I figured she bears the closest resemblance to the recovered Finder, both in appearance and personality.)

The mountains certainly seemed imposing. They rose up to form tall cliffs on either side of the narrow valley, which wound a serpent-like path through the rock. Large jutting rocks formed convenient ledges along the walls. The place was ripe for an ambush.

"Gwen, you are a Valkyrie; couldn't you just fly away?" Archemiday asked me.

I turned to look at him and grimaced. "I could, but I'd rather fight for my innocence. I'm not a traitor, honest! I'd lived a life of sin and death, and I just wanted to turn it around and do the right thing for once. I thought they would understand. You understand, don't you?"

The Sanaca girl rushed up to me,

"..."

"Yes, yes I'm fine..." I stuttered. "I... don't need your help," I coughed blood up again. "That Bandit just pulled a cheap move on me, not the first though," I smiled at my own joke, exposing my blood-ridden teeth. "Let me just use these crowns to go and get somebody to fix me up..." I tried to walk away, I limped for a while, then buckling in my pain. This is so embarrassing...

"Mhmm. Gwen, could you remind me of what happened in the warehouse? It has been while.". The more I know about this fellow, the better I could be him. We started to climb a wall and grab the rocks. I slipped on one of the rocks, but recovered.

Romance & war is in the air

"I'm sorry, I don't rightly remember what happened at the warehouse. All I really remember is that you were a good lute player. You'll have to play me a tune sometime soon."

Suddenly, Arch's foot slips, and he hangs precariously on a rock. His knuckles whiten as he strains to hold himself up. I extend my wings and fly up to grab him, but he is heavier than expected, and we both tumble onto the jutting rock. I open my eyes to find myself lying breathless on top of Arch. "Um...well! This is awkward." I stand up, brush myself off, and stop short.

Three Spiral Enforcers are advancing through the valley. They probably heard us talking. I lay a hand on Arch's mouth and drop flat on the rock. The Enforcers arrive at the spot where I and Arch just were, and are examining the footprints.

Drat, they're onto us. My heart pounds in my chest and I shut my eyes as I try to figure out how to escape. I peer over the rock; they're not going anywhere soon.

I whisper to Arch, "We need to dispose of them. Stay here until you hear action." Silently, I extend my blades and drop behind the Enforcers. I almost catch them by surprise when my foot slips, and it loudly scrapes the dirt as I recover my footing. They whip around, and the leader's Calibur grazes my armor. I stumble back and find my shield just in time to block another swing. Darn, these guys are good. "Arch! Where are you!? A little help here?"

Archemiday-Thebard

and so span the man.

"U-uh, G-Gwen... C-could you get off of me?". I was blushing like mad when she fell on me. She stood up and covered my mouth. She had seen three enforcers. She tried to sneak behind them while I waited for my cue. "Arch, a little help?" she said. I dashed over the rocks, drawing my calibur.

Me : Attack! 35 damage.
Warden : Shield Bash! Stun! 5 Damage!
Me : Attack! Stunned!
Warden : Slash! Graze! 10 damage.
me : Attack! Critical! 60 Damage.

Warden fainted!

by the time I had fainted one, Gwen finished the other two. The stun was taking a bit of an effect on me. "Ugh... I feel dizzy.". I said as I tried to regain my balance.

"Are you kidding me?" Sanaca grabbed a hold of Drewaq, steadying him, despite his protests. "You really think I'll just leave you like this? We're heading back to the Inn, whether you like it or not, I'm not going to let you just die here." Sanaca remained stern, his condition was worsening, he needed immediate care, and being so reluctant wasn't going to help.

((Yay. You people like my battle system. :3))

I stared at Sanaca, obviously she wasn't going to give up. I didn't want to give up either, I didn't want help from her... You can possibly be allies... A healer, or at least somebody to share your plan with. It was lonely being the only one with a plan. I looked down at my necklace, it being the only source of hope I had. "Fine, steady me. I'm not completely useless," I told her. I put my arm around her and she put her's around mine and I walked as best as I could with her to the inn.

Thinslayer

Gwen disposing of the other two? lol nope

I spin and swipe at the Enforcer. I tear into his shield, and he replies with a powerful uppercut. My sword meets his with a resounding clang, and I push his aside as I stab at his chest. He merely steps back to evade it, as if to mock me. He heaves his sword over his head and brings it down on my shoulder with a sickening crunch. I drop to my knees with a yelp, push off the sword with my other hand, and slash at his leg. As he backs off holding his leg, his partner plunges his sword into my already-wounded shoulder.

I open my mouth to scream, but no sound escapes my lips. Bitter tears fall from my eyes, and I feel a river of blood pour down my arm. I slash wildly at the offender, and I seem to hit something, because he grunts and backs off, leaving his sword in my shoulder. I rip it out and throw it to the ground and try to sit up, but then I feel a gun barrel planted at my head with the words, "Don't move, missy."

At least he doesn't plan on killing me yet. I drop my head back on the ground and nurse my wounded shoulder, which now feels cold and lifeless. I turn my head to look for Arch, but all I can see is the Enforcer's back and Arch's stumbling legs.

I try to warn Arch, but my throat rebels against me. Shots ring out as the world darkens and fades away.

Someone needs my help!!

Once at the Inn, Sanaca treated the heavily wounded Knight. "You still haven't told me your name by the way." Sanaca's expression scrunched up. "What's been going on with you? How did you even find the strength to walk here? Let alone get into a fight. You're gonna need to take a rest, if you don't want to die, I suggest laying back for awhile, you should be better in a few hours." Sanaca explained as she finished bandaging the Knight's countless wounds.

---
3:00

Sanaca took another look outside the Inn, it had been hours and Gwen and Archemiday hadn't been back yet, she was getting worried. She popped back into Drewaq's room.

"I'm going to check on my friends, if you feel like you wanna die or you feel you are dying, then feel free to look for me." Sanaca knew that the Knight wanted to deal with himself by himself, but she highly doubted there were very many skilled healers or doctors in Vendetta.

Sanaca went back to the Armor shop, asking if he knew where Archemiday and Gwen had gone, the shop owner shrugged.

"Think I heard something about mountains, but that's it."

"Good enough for me, thanks." Sanaca whisked out the door. Mountains were not a good place to disappear to. When she arrived, she could easily discern recent activity on one of the trails. She ran down the path, hoping for any signs of Archemiday or Gwen. After awhile, she could make out the sounds of battle. Ducking down beneath a ledge, she peered over, praying not to get noticed. Her eyes widened at the scene before her.

I slashed at the warden, but he countered and hit my sword launching the sword out of my hand. I pulled up my shield, and he hit me so hard I fell to the ground. He kept pounding on my shield. I-I'm going to die... He broke my shield, but kept slashing until he had made a noticeable gash. He then held the sword to my head. "Don't move." he said. "So, we caught em."

"Whoa, lookee dat Joe! We got lucky! Valkyroid and traitor in one sweep. Say, you okay?"
"No- urgh, she got me in the leg. What about you, Bob?"
"Yeah, I'm fine, but oh my gosh, they got Kenny!"
"Don't sweat it, kid. You did great out there."
"Darn, why do traitors gotta be so hawt!?"
"Go romance her if you like her so much."
"She's dead."
"She's unconscious."
"Same difference."
"What?"
"Nothin'."

The enforcers dragged Arch and Gwen to their campsite, where Joe tended to their wounds (as well as his own), while Bob rambled on about spiraling knights or something. Joe suddenly spotted someone watching them from a distance. "Say Bob, do you suppose another Cobalt is watchin' us?" Bob looked, and nodded. "Yep, lemme git at 'im."

The two of them got up and approached for a closer look.

Ugh... My head... I tried to stretch my arms, but they were tied. I looked at my chest, and the gash was still there. Wait, where did my shirt go? I looked around me and saw my black wings, tied up. "Oh man, if Gwen sees these she is going to see I'm not her Archemiday and she is going to kill me!". I panically whispered to myself. I was never going to make it back to perform at the inn at this rate. Don't wake up Gwen, just please don't.

(Third-person is more appropriate for this section)

Unfortunately for Arch, Gwen did wake up. Worse, she turned to look at Arch, and her eyes drifted up to his lovely black wings. Fortunately for Arch, her mind was taking a while to process what she just saw. She apparently decided that it was of no consequence, because her attention soon drifted away to the Enforcers off in the distance. She wasn't bound like Arch was, but she was too hurt to move anyways.

(Come on people, someone rescue them!)

Sorry, had something different in mind, but had to go work...

Sanaca gasped in fear as the Enforcers came trudging towards her, why didn't she stay hidden! She had to think quick, the Enforcers weren't too close, but would be there fairly quickly, they would also have to go a certain pathway to reach the ledge, which would give her an advantage, as they would not be able to see her if she tried to jump them. What to do? She went over her options when her hand brushed her bag, making her recall...

She layed anxiously in position beneath the ledge, just out if sight, listening as they came closer. Just a few more steps, she thought, heart thumping... Now!

She launched herself up from her spot, her hand already releasing the vial of experimental fluid, made from the strange black plant she had seen when she first came here. The thing flew through the air, catching the Enforcers off guard. The vial struck one of the Enforcers on the chest, shattering on impact, a noxious gas engulfing them instantly. Sanaca dashed back a few paces, covering her mouth and holding onto her breath. A few coughs, moans and thuds later, she slowly crept back to find the Enforcers knocked out, a dark substance clinging to their armor. Well now she really wished she had a writing pad to note this down. She dashed past them to their camp a fair distance away.

Bursting into a tent, she found; nothing, just some sleeping roles and supplies, she checked the next tent and found Arxhemiday, tied up and shirtless and Gwen cringing with pain on the ground.

"Great Haven, what happened?!" Sanaca yelled in horror, untying Archemiday and applying aid to Gwen's injuries, this wasn't good.

"I was so foolish...forgive me Archie..."

Gentle hands tend to my wounds. I will not faint again, but I darn-well want to. The pain from my wounded shoulder is great, but almost nothing compared to my fear that I will never use it again. "Can you mend it?" I ask Sanaca. I'm praying that there's a medic in town if she can't.

(OOC: IT'S IMPOSSSIBRU! ... That joke didn't really apply here, did it...)

Sanaca smirked despite herself, as long as she kept a cool mind, everything would be okay.

"Relax Gwen, you'll be fine, if you stay tense, you'll hinder the healing."

She grabbed some more herbs from her bag to find that she was practically out. Then she remembered with relief the sleeping roles and supplies in the other tent. She gave some pain relieving herbs to Gwen and then the rest to Archemiday, saying,

"This'll help ease the pain a bit while I go and see what sort of medical supplies these 'thugs' have." Sanaca said rushing out of the tent.

(OOC: please try to give us better hooks. The most I can have Gwen do right now is think and react, and even then not much. Could you...you know...take her someplace with more people around?)

The pain soon subsides, but I can't stop thinking about Arch. Something is off about him. I look at him again; why is he so pale? His black wings catch my eye again.

Arch didn't used to have wings.

Huh! Whaddya know? Looks like the boy became an angel while I was away. Guess it paid off to befriend him. Don't people have to die before they become angels, though?...

Sanaca returned, drawing the attention back to herself, a smile beaming brightly on her face. Her arms full with a medical kit and the sleeping bags.

"Turns out they had more and better than what I was hoping for!" She leaned down next to Gwen carefully, yet expertly repairing her arm. "You'll probably have to stay off this arm for awhile, but for that kind of wound, it should heal much faster than it would have." Sanaca wrapped a bandage around Gwen's arm, and quickly set up a sling. "This makes the pain practically imperceptible, just remember not to exert your arm, or rather your entire body, while it's healing." With a little pride, she added, "This is actually a blend of medicines that I came up with, I'm surprised no one has actually made it before." Sanaca said, applying a strange cream that vaporized as it touched Gwen's wounds. "Try to rest for now." Sanaca said, pulling up one of the sleeping bags beneath Gwen's head. "Now to Arche."

Sanaca crouched next to Arche, immediately applying medication, when suddenly three figures entered the tent. Sanaca gasped, fear taking control, the Enforcers were back! In her haste to check up on Archemiday and Gwen, she had forgotten to check the vitals of the Enforcers to see how long they would be knocked out; after all, the concoction was completely experimental.

Gwen shot up, expecting to wince in pain, but remained unaffected by the sudden movement of her body.

"I-I thought they were knocked out cold, I had no idea they would recover so fast!" Sanaca explained, moving Archemiday back a bit and pulling out her Blaster, she was the only one who was well enough to fight. They were also trapped inside the tent, there was no way out, and if they defeated both Archemiday and Gwen, how would she win?! But then she noticed that their eyes were glazed over they had not reacted at all since entering the tent, what?

(OOC: Better Thin? ;3)
(EDIT: I knew something was off, in your entry, you said that only TWO of the Enforcers went to check out who was spying on them... uh whoops?)

Miyu quietly looked on,

Miyu quietly looked on, unseen, from a nearby rock. She cautiously counted the people and the sleeping bags. She didn't want to outright KILL them by scavenging. One one ratio. Damn it.

She then noted the Enforcers en route and decided to gain the trust of the people in the tent. This would take work, though. She grabbed the rock she was behind. Decent size, certainly heavy. Back up, she took good aim, and gave it a mighty good throw! It smacked into one of the Enforcers, drawing their attention to her.

"Catch me if you can~"

She then took off running, taking shots with her Blaster to keep the heat on her and certainly trash-talking them. Reloading was taking some time. Energy was scarce here, more so than in Haven. This was what allowed the Blasters to reload. Since it was taking her some time, she holstered the gun. By now the people in the tent had to be out. She doubled back, taking a graceful leap over one of the Enforcers and dropping a Blast Bomb mid-leap. It exploded in the cluster, blowing them all up but not killing them. They'd obviously be out cold for a long time. She decided it'd be better to leave nothing to chance and wielded her Calibur for the first time. It felt wrong to kill other Knights, but these people tried to kill first. With three quick stabs to their foreheads, she wiped the blade of it's newly acquired crimson splotches and sprinted back to camp.

After some running, she broke her sprint. Panting, she walked into the tent, but was more dehydrated than she thought. She crumpled over to the floor. It hurt like hell, her legs, her migraine brought on through this. She reached for what looked like a bottle of water but blacked out on the hard dirt.

Archemiday-Thebard

Gwen had seen me with my wings and I grew pale instantly. Oh vog oh vog oh vog! To my fortune, she turned away to look at the wardens leaving the tent. I heard a few thuds, and then Sana opening the tent. She started to untie me and Gwen, and started applying medicene. The faster I got away from Gwen now, the better. It was obvious I was not her Archemiday.

Day II-- Afternoon

"You still haven't told me your name by the way." "Well, I suppose it serves you right to know," I told her, "My name is Drewaq, or at least that's what my necklace told me, and I'm wearing it."

Pre-Evening ((I don't know what the appropriate word would be for between afternoon and evening :3))

Sanaca had been gone for quite a while at this moment, yet with still no return. I'm sure she's alright, those other two looked capable in a battle. As an after thought, Especially the Bard... I hope that Lute is used on someone other than me. Feeling completely useless, I just sat back thinking about my situation. I have a plan and no way to execute it, hopeless... And with that happy thought tucked away in my head I drifted to sleep.

Getting back is the hard part.

I sit up, still nursing my arm. Arch looks keen on getting away. I don't blame him; I am too. I pat him on the head with a grim smile and stand up. I'm a little unsteady, and fall into Arch's lap. I laugh with embarrassment, feeling my cheeks flush. I stand up again and help him to his feet. "C'mon, Arch. Let's head back to the inn, shall we?"

We travel back through the valley until we reach three dead enforcers. Their foreheads have gaping holes, and a strange black substance lightly covers their bodies. I look at my wounded shoulder, then back at them. It's not fair; they didn't deserve this. They didn't even try to kill us. Maybe they came to tell me I was acquitted, or...I don't know. I'll never know now. Regret pangs form a lump in my throat as I stoop to kiss an Enforcer's forehead. As I stand up to leave, I feel something grab my ankle. I look back to see the Enforcer I just kissed looking at me. A grateful, bloodstained tear rolls down his cheek as we gaze into each other's eyes, and a serene smile forms on his face before he passes away.

I bite my lip and turn away. I need to get back to the inn to patch up my arm.

DAY II - TWILIGHT-ISH

Miyu revived. Her head hurt even more. She was beginning to hallucinate now. If she didn't find water in the next give or take half an hour, there was no doubt in her mind she would die. Even the act of walking was a horrible struggle. She was confined to this camp, and if it didn't have any water in it...

She checked the tent she was in. No water. Bottled, dripping, or otherwise.

She checked another tent. Still no water. This left one last tent. She kept her blaster out. That way, if there wasn't any water in this camp, she wouldn't have to suffer dehydration any longer. She walked over to it. Yes! A bottle of water. She quickly reached for it, picked it up, uncapped it with a serious struggle, and gulped it down.

OK. This was good. She still felt dizzy and retained the migraine, albeit it was less serious. She started, from mostly muscle memory, to walk back to Vendetta. This was bad, though. If anything were to attack now, they'd have a serious advantage. She looked up. Almost nightfall. Damn it all, she thought. She picked up the pace as much as her migraine-rattled brain would allow. Eventually, stumbling, coughing, and in pain, she walked back to that town. She had found some small piles of crowns, totaling to about 250. She had to move. She stumbled back into the inn, placed the bag of crowns on the counter, and asked for water.

She drank, but was cautious. Too much water intake after being this dehydrated for this long would no doubt harm her systems even more then if she was dehydrated. Down went the first bottle. OK, the migraine was beginning to fade. The second, the third. She no longer felt as parched. The fourth and the fifth. She felt much better. All of it had been drunk in half an hour. Still fading in and out, she went to the room she had, and, not caring any more, collapsed onto the bed.

Never again would she let herself fall that far.
