From The Ashes of the Old

["Zero" Americanski]

"Amy, it took me a long time to understand. I used to be a slave to a man named Vlad Tepes. I am free now, and I work to help Valodya because... Well because I believe it to be the right thing to do."

[Valkoinen Joki]

i look around still. "i am fine as well, besides the fact that my mind wonders often to the times when you tried to kill me, even after i was kind to you...".

[Amy Smith]

"Oh... I still don';t think I understand, but I'll learn." I look around as we reach the bistro. "What is this place, and what function does it serve?"

[Serena]

"Ceph, I am going out to get some groceries
It is night, but there are plenty of late grocery stores. So, I start to walk the long dark streets to clear my mind and get something to eat

[Matsumura]

"Yes LuLu, now would be a good time to help," says Matsumura. "You can take this guy."

[Surma]

Surma looked up at Matsumura and Lulu. "You'll need to work as a team." Surma said calmly.

[Valodya Bassarov]

"It is a place where people can relax and get something to eat or drink." Bassarov explains in regards to the bistro.

"The word comes from Russians who were in France after the napoleonic wars who would order at local restuarants, uttering the word "obistri or obistro" which is Russian for quickly. I may be mistaken, but I think that is the orrigin of it."

[Matsumura]

"Fine, but first I'm getting this girl outta here," says Matsumura. Matsumura grabs Oak. "Sorry, but you'll just be a distraction. I've got bigger fish to fry," says Matsumura as he teleports them away to the East. He uses his ki to power his arms and smacks Oak's legs, breaking them. "Well, I hope you have a nice stay in the Tongzi River," says Matsumura as he drops her in. "That should keep her out of my hair." Matsumura teleports back.

[LuLu]

I smile..."Are you kidding? I have it under control."

[Sayuka]

[glow=violet,2,300]Perhaps if you weren't so affectionate towards me I wouldn't have acted so cruely. Anyway, you are a dragon and you were attacking the city. You also work for Red Infinity. I really don't need an excuse to fight you...or mistrust you [/glow]

[Amy Smith]

"Oh, so like a fueling station for biologics? I understand. At least I think I do. There are still some things that I don't understand, like why would you wish to rebel against the rightful rulers of this planet. And why does she deliberately inhale the smoke from the leaves of a poisonous plant?"

[Mazura]

Mazura bows. "I thank you, greatly. I'm sure my powers will come in handy of the job required."
So now I've joined. And now I see why.... I am needed. "So this is why?"
"You know as well as I do."
Mazura nods to herself. Now...
"So what am I to do, first?"

[Hikari]

Hikari covered her eyes with her hands as Riku turned to another form and killed Eris. She didn't like it one bit.
Once Riku returned and smiled at her she scowled back and ignored him.

"Too many intruders who want to fight..." She groaned, bringing her knees to her chest and wrapping her arms around them.

Hikari glanced at Surma's calm form and then Varsha's blank one. She didn't know what to do, but if Riku was going to be rude again she knew exactly what to do.

[Kaitalish]

I see him attack my minion. Acting quickly, I take control of her body and form a gate, moving her safely back to my lair and engulfing her in a Cloud of Taint to heal her wounds.

["Zero" Americanski]

I just about gag at that last part. "You're right, it is pretty stupid, but I've been doing it for the last few years and I kind of like it despite the side effects... If you were human I'd tell you never to start. As for your other question Valodya can answer." I say as we find a table and sit down/
