Part One of Three: SEARCH PARTIES // HOSTAGES - Pre-battle prep

[nishimono.livejournal.com]

[You've all searched long and hard to get here--a strange manor surrounded by thick forests and right near the mountains that encompass Paradisa's castle. It's old-looking and you can't quite place the architecture...and it has an oddly empty feel to it. It certainly doesn't look like the place where a guts-eating monster would be dwelling, nor where she'd kidnap and torture people. But appearances can certainly be deceiving...

Now that everyone involved knows where she is, it's time to converge and figure out a battle plan.]

[He can sense the staring, and though he continues the amiable trot...]

You can come out and speak to me. I know you're there.

[ino]

[LMAO. she just hops down from the tree in front of him, glancing up] Are you headed to find the hostages?

[wishmadeinfire.livejournal.com]

[The horse starts a bit, which was bad for a war steed, but Ashura doubted the animal had seen much of a battlefield, and even the beast animals could only take so much.]

Yes. My group isn't to far off, but I thought I'd do some scouting a bit out from them, just in case there was something to find.

[ino]

[glances at the horse, then back to this guy ... girl .. thing]

Ah, really? Who else is in your group ... ?

[wishmadeinfire.livejournal.com]

Oliver, Allan, and Xellos. I'm Ashura.

And you?

[He clicks his tongue and urges the anima to keep walked sedately along the path. Walk and talk, walk and talk.]

[ino]

[oh, she doesnt know those people. boooo. but she'll be walking along with~]

Nice to meet you, Ashura ... I'm Ino.

[wishmadeinfire.livejournal.com]

The same, though I wish it were under better circumstances.

[He sighed and shook his head, what little jewelry he had on jingling. The joy of his war robes? Not half as many jewels as his usual outfits and he got so show more leg ~]

[ino]

[LMAO mmmm pretty boy leg]

Yeah, no kidding. [a pause] You're pretty new, I'm guessing?

[wishmadeinfire.livejournal.com]

[And it is a wonderful leg (http://www.onemanga.com/Tsubasa_Reservoir_Chronicles/65/11/) ~ A high rise thigh length stocking with a golden thighlet. Oh yes ~ ]

Yes. I'd say no more than a few weeks now since I had arrived. [He sighs] It seems I cannot escape battle so easily as I thought.

[ino]

[goodness gracious. dude looks like a lay-dayyy]

That's what I thought ...

[and a bit of a frown at that. it's true, sadly] Unfortunately, there's just as much fighting going on here as in any other world.

[He gets it from his mama. It must have been the gods being kind, giving the kingdom an heir and his moms someone to dress up at the same time.]

I suppose it's bound to happen with so many people together, but something like this....

[He shakes his head sadly.]
