From Rags to Riches to Ragnorak {Quake!}

Meanwhile a person flew out of the roof of a small pub as he went flying into the sky leaving just a sparkle in the sky to mark where he flew as neo hobled out of the pub annoyed once again. For you see the man who went flying was one who had unfortunatly insulted neos work and was hitting on the same girl ok well GIRLS that neo was so he sort of maby, almost definatly lost his temper and sent the guy flying after using his enhancing magic to give him a good wallop. UNfortunatly after that he got too "freindly" with the bar maids there and earned himslf a hard slap on both his cheecks one for each of them and they shone red for now as he hobled out not yet drunk but trying to get into the proper feel to get drunk. It seemed no one had any idea about anything on the sword so it was another day of no leads as always. He had also failed at finding any of the strange people so far as well so for now he was simply wondering around afraid that at any moment his assiustant would find him and give him a beating for his flirting today.

Muko walked the streets. He eventually found out where the... thing- cant say clown- committed one of its murders. He may have had to put a dagger into someones knee and then pry off the cap... but hey, business is business. And you should know not to ******** with someone with green hair carrying a sword... its just a bad idea.

He circled the house then broke a window to get in. He then proceeded to try the doors to see if it was necessary to break a window- it wasn't- he laughed. Then he went to trying to figure something out about the murder. He checked for any sign of struggle, make up, rainbow hair, maybe a huge footprint. Anything that would let him know if he was going to s**t himself in the next few days or not. He eventually found something, and he didn't like it. It was a clown... or maybe a jester- but whats the difference, really?

After about an hour he left the house through another window- that he broke- and headed off looking for those two he met in the bar. He just wished he had a list of 'Good guys' and a list of 'Bad guys'. So he knew he could talk to, and who he needed to put a knife into.

Lunia listened to Rugalia completely, she smiled gently at his compliment. As she was about to say something else, she jumped back in such fear when Rugalia pulled out his sword and bashed the man on the head with it. "Why is this happening Rugalia?" she asked him, moving closer to him she held onto his clothing tightly, showing she was scared and wanted to be closer to him to be protected as she couldn't fight. "I just want to get out of here.." she said to him, hiding behind him from the other fighters.

((No worries, Dez. *sticks a stamp on Dez's head*

Other World - Cyrus))

The Regent nodded. Before he could say anything else, Jade had left with the cat that was her sister in blue light. That was true about the communication. Communication was one of the most important factors in coordinating and keeping order. Cyrus continued walking. Well, that was counter intuitive. Now, they're all in Ruthbar. Maybe Leo is right, and I need that rest. I can't sleep though. The Regent wondered how Leonardo and Rine were doing and if they had found the jester. For some odd reason, an image of red clowns suddenly popped up in Cyrus's mind. That confused him. Well, that was random. He supposed he could contact Leonardo to ask about how things were, but then again, he was supposed to let Leonardo and Rine handle today.

The engineering professor sighed silently as Andrelia suddenly said he had to go. The professor could tell that Andrelia was tense and perhaps acting a bit paranoid. He watched Andrelia pull Casidy away from the candlelight vigil area as the two of them talked and walked. Andrelia's reactions had not disrupted the candlelight vigil, and to those present, Andrelia and Casidy were just people walking in the crowd during the chorus. However, the professor was somewhat concerned with Andrelia's mentality.

(what was the stamp for? am i being mailed somewhere? And where too? )

Clad only stopped laughing at Genya when he realized the man's confusion was sincere. Watching the young man the shifter concluded that he'd get along best with the scientist he'd run into earlier...in fact he was part of the resistance wasnt he? Clad shook the thought from his head, if Neo was a part of the resistance than Alister must have delt with him for the most part. The chimera didnt need all that extra science stuff when planning a battle.
When Genya asked his first real question Clad gave a wide toothy grin, showing off all his triangular teeth. "Me welll, Its not often i get asked that. Most see the ears and just assume shifter or avoid the topic all together because of me title but since ya asked i'll oblige ya. I'm a Chimera...the Reaper of Ruthbar as they say and this town here is Ruthbar. Soo what about you sky man. Where you from? Avn't heard of any flyin cities around here so spill it. And mind given yer name while your at it? " Clad signalled one of the bar maids and two mugs were set infront of them. A rather strong near painful smelling liquid infront of Clad and nearly the complete opposite for Genya.

Noise gave one last nod to Alister, waiting for him to fully close his door before deciding to wander off to his room. That was at least until his sensitvie ears picked up voices in Alister's room. After only a moments deliberation, Noise placed his ear next to the door and silently listened. The voice was just so familiar...the scent too. Just where exactly had he smelled it before. The place, to his frustration, continuied to illude him, thus he was stuck with simply listening in.

Morrigan heard a commotion and saw a man walk out of a bar with two red cheeks. Do you think that's the man there? she asked her sisters. Jade stared at him activating her claravoyance as she looked through his eyes. She purred in an affirmative tone. Morrigan then began to walk towards Neo as her hair flowed behind her looking at him. "Excuse me sir, but I am lost...I'm looking for a weapon's shop...do you think you could help me find it?" she asked him in a gentle tone.

 

[NeophantomX]

Neo remained where he was rubbing his cheecks when he heard a gentle beautiful voice coming from behind him as he swiftly turned on his heels to face her. " Ahhhhhh yyyes of course i could. It would be an honor to escort such a beauty as yourself to a weapons shop. Or any place really as it is my duty as a man to aid a flower such as yourself." said neo bowing low and offering his hand with a graceful motion. He was in gentlemen mode right now but he would likely switch to pervert mode soon enough he usually always did. " OH by the way my name is Neo, Neo Spades, i assure you any rumours youv heard about me are very much untrue gossip." added neo after remembering how that info might have helped him before as some unflatering rumours about him have been going around such as him flirting with everything in a skirt and hes a major crackpot. All he beleived at least were completly false, or so hed like to beleive.

((Postage. Dez, you are being mailed to the Other World for a real life experience while I'm drowned in snow in Never Never Land.))

The creature stopped laughing and smiled creepily at him. It's an animal! And it talks! At this point, Genya was now a combination of confused and scared and fascinated with what he thought might be a new species. He still had lingering suspicions that he was stuck in a messed up dream though.

As Clad answered Genya's question, the blonde glasses boy blinked. Shifter? What? Hmm... "Chimera... and what's characteristic of that?" Huh? Wasn't chimera something from a mythology thing? Chimeras existed? Didn't seem to fit the description that he had read though. Genya was a man of science, not myth. "That's physically impossible..." he mumbled. Then Reaper of Ruthbar didn't sound like a nice name either. "Umm..." And then the two mugs were set in front of them on the table. The grad student could smell the stench coming from Clad's cup. What toxic concoction is that??!! Genya hesitated. "Genya... Japan. What do you mean by sky? What country is Ruthbar in?"  

[demoneyeszero]

Clad's eye twitched at the strange stares he was getting from Genya. Was he examining him or something? He took a swig from his mug to clear his head. "Oold on a minute, dont tell me ya never even heard of a chimera before? What do ya think man." Clad sighed before taking another drink. He remembered that the man did fall a fairly long way and concluded he must be damaged in the head. "Allright, hears how ya can tell a chimera, listen up cause it could save your life..first for most shifters they usually display somethin of their feral traits. For chimera generally our ears, strength and dependin on yer breeding teeth as well. Then theres this..." He held his arm out over the table letting it grow and become furred before quickly stopping the change. At his next question Clad raised a brow. "Never eard of Japan...must be fairly far huh. An Ruthbar is in (first off let me tell you my disdain for you making me name things...im not good at it xp ) Bryliane, the land named after the family thats ruled it for...oh who the hell knows how long.

Morrigan looked at Neo and smiled. "Nice to meet you" she said. "I've never heard of you so you don't have to worry about rumors" she said giggling. "Actually, I'm looking for a sword...called the Dmage sword...I've been searching for it in hopes of finding one at a weapon's shop" she told him. She was a blunt person so it wouldn't do any justice to beat around the bush. She wouldn't give away her cover but it would seem that they shared a similar interest at the most that would lead into more conversation.

(Special guest appearance. Lolz.)

"I'm sorry, but you've chosen the wrong card...yet again. I'm sure you have a wife and kid at home sir. Maybe you shoud stop giving me your money." A con man at heart, the assassin of assassins stood at the edge of candlelight vigil putting on his own show for those unspecting. A large man, mid thirties, stood before his wooden gambling post literally feeding him money as if her were a vending machine holding gold. Being the person he was, he couldn't deny it. "Okay sir, it appears you want to play Denn's game again eh? Let's go for a spin." The artist at work, Denn Rezzler, placed three cards down before him. He would always say that one was an ace. He'd even show it. But once the spinning began, it was another story.

He cursed how easy it was to fool people on this plane of existance, but if it meant money, he didn't care too much. He lifted his hand over the cards and to the amazement of those watching, and those that have been watching for his current customer lose for the past fifteen minutes, they began to shift in intricate helix-like patters. For five seconds at least this went on and speed up as time neared it's end. Once the shifting stopped, Denn looked up at the man and grinned. "Sir, you look mad. If you're going to punch me, can I at least change into something darker? I don't want my clothes being marred today."

((Dez, I'll get to you later.

Earth))

Ezio’s engineering professor headed through the crowds to the outskirts of the candlelight vigil area, glancing as Casidy and Andrelia’s figures got smaller and smaller. The two of them weren’t the only ones leaving. Not everyone could be expected to stay for the whole thing. People had different schedules. He came upon a table when some guy who the green eyed professor didn’t remember ever seeing was doing card tricks. There were a lot of people between the surrounding towns and the university, so it was entirely possible that the professor really had never seen or met the guy. But still, it was hardly appropriate to have this kind of set up at a candlelight vigil. He heard Denn mention the “punch”line and stepped in. “Hey, break it up. This is hardly the place to be doing this. There won’t be any fighting over spilt milk, burning hot wax, or random paper cuts tonight.” He looked at the others in the area. He recognized some of them. One or two were students that he had taught before or was currently teaching. There was even another professor, and the green eyed professor known better as Orion shook his head. “Remember why we’re here tonight. Respect and remembrance. Please don’t be rude and gawk with candle wax dripping over you.” The professor’s words seemed to have an effect, no matter how odd the combination of words may have been. The crowd began to disperse and turn their attention to the candlelight vigil.

The professor turned back to Denn. “Shady card young man, deck it in. Devious, but you’ve got the wrong stage for collecting pennies.” The professor wouldn’t be leaving until Denn packed up and left for sure.  

[Mahareshi]

Denn's eyes looked away from the three tee-pee folded cards and shot beams of nonchalance at the man who was talking to him. He wasn't exactly accustomed to this part of Earth and attracting the law wasn't something he wanted to do. Ever. Although he did want to react to him calling his setup a 'stage for collecting pennies.' The dull glow in his eyes became the equivalent of a dejected sigh. He placed his hand against the top of his stand and said to the fountain of money,"Stop. Credentials over here has a point. We should be remember and reminscing. Well, I should." The stand burst into a plume of white smoke that Denn hastily walked from behind. "You should be remembering your wife after she leaves you tonight. Five hundred? Seriously?" As if on a mission, Denn left without saying anything else to the Prof. For now, he needed to catch up to the two people leaving and fast. He wasn't about to fail the only thing he considered himself good at.

He crossed into an alleyway, but kept moving parallel to them. Within the darkness, his deck of cards shifted among his body, then toward his hands and fingertips. Slitting throats were much easier when your fingernails were sharper than most blades.

Shaco

Shaco was here and there gather information and causing trouble. It was what he was known for and that was his only goal in this world. To interferer in the daily lives of others, cause as much chaos as a single being could which happened to be quite the bit in his case. Several thoughts wandered through the jesters mind. There was a person of interest not to far from him as he was always watching and listening to others. A man had a little outburst and the word clown had been thrown around and he was a jester so it was time for a little show. Timing would be important and he showed up sitting on a barrel just outside of the bar where the man was. Tilting his head to the side the sounds of bells went off and he gaze at the man. "How do you do" he asked in almost a teasing tone, wanting to grin widely to see how the man would respond.
