In a flash maku appearing behind aalamas. "You have no idea what im capable of." Maku said cooly before walking off to join the others. "Just remember. You kill an innocent, i wont hesitate to kill you."

[Alan the fox]

"That is war kid....Innocence is always the first loss." Aalamas said then ran up and grabbed him to say something only Maku could hear,"And I refuse to die...I will return to my daughters no matter what its bad enough their mother was claimed by my trusting of a mage....and that will never happen again."

Aalamas stepped away,"Mage, whats up name," Aalamas asked as he pulled a weapon out of the supply wagon," And no you wont go unarmed.....Here take this weapon its light when you prove yourself you will get your staff back."

[ClementineKitsune]

"I don't know how to use any other weapon besides my own, I have trained with it for years so I'd rather go unarmed then carry something useless around." She replied to him, irritated that she still had not attained her weapon. "My name is Shirian by the way, what can I call you by?" She asked him and glanced quickly over to the fort to see what they were doing. The general had not left the building yet or else she would've seen guards, and if the general did not see her better for her. She had about five minutes before he would finish with his rounds and return outside to finish his daily routine and if the guards saw there would be an unnecessary fight and travelers here were not common. She turned her head back again to face the fox with a light smile.

"if you girls are done fighting." slayn said while looking through the bushes at the fort. "you can stay here and enjoy your tea party im going to go scout ahead. dont miss me"

slayn walks out of the bushes and heads down the trail.
hours pass and no return.

a fort messenger comes running by with a letter. its saying they caught slayn gray. and more about his recored. his dark past. if the reaches the federation. then this mission is a failure.

[Makurayami]

Maku noticed the messenger running thru the forest about 50 yards from them and motioning for siphiria to follow he dashed off in his direction. Silently and swiftly maku grabbed the messenger from behind with one arm wrapped around his neck using his other to hold his grip tight enough so he couldn't slip away. "Well who do we have here?" Maku motioned for siphiria to search the messenger to see what he was transporting.

As siphiria searched the man she found a letter hidden in the bag he had around his waist. Quickly scanning over it she looked up at maku "We've got bad news."

Walking back over to the clearing where the others where maku tossed the now bound messenger down in front of him. "We have company." he said with a smirk. "Messenger. He was carrying this." He motioned for siphiria who held out the letter.

"Looks like they got slayn. This is a message to the federation." She waited for one of the others to take the letter, hiding the last half of it in the pouch on her waist. All the others needed to see was the part about slayn being caught, Something told her that what was on the other half slayn wouldn't want them to know. He'd tell them if it was important or they needed to know. All they needed to worry about now was rescuing there leader.

[Alan the fox]

Aalamas didnt even move during the whole event but noticed Shirian was looked at the fort. Then upon news of Slayns capture he turned to her with an evil smile.

"Well now we know where you are from and now you are of use" Aalamas laughed, "Time to go I am going to trade you for Slayn.

Aalamas then tied her up and began to drag her to the fort, "Well atleast use you to get thru gates to kill the guards." Aalamas said coldly.

[ClementineKitsune]

"W-Wait!!" She said aloud, finding herself in a tight situation before she knew it. "Whatever just happened was not my fault and turning me in for a trade is a preposterous idea. They could care less who I am and the guards in there are of many. The three of you could never take the place down or even slip in unnoticed. We need to figure out a way in without resorting to this fashion." She explained, still being dragged away. She didn't know if either of them heard her of even cared about the words that came out of her mouth, but she knew what would lay ahead if they continued this way. "Let me try to help you." She told them quietly.

[Kiva Darkbane]

slayn awake in a make shift cell that would be easy to escape from but the 5 gurads now on post would make things harder.
"damn there must intend on keeping me here." he looks around. ne noticed he had strange handcofs the prevent aura chants. "damn" he wisperd. he looked over and noticed there was another in here.

[Makurayami]

"Aalamas stop! she hasn't done anything. how do you know that she is a spy! She says that she can help us!" Siphiria yelled at him. "Maku do something!" She added turning to her teacher.

Slowly and smoothly Maku walked in front of aalamas "Bad move" Maku said softly. Putting a hand on aalamas's shoulder he punched him in the stomach bringing him to his knees. "I told you not to touch her. She has done nothing to provoke you or harm any of us." Maku pushed aalamas to the side and pulling out a small knife he cut Shirian loose and helped her to her feet. "You said you could help us. Well nows your chance." turning to the fort Maku gently fingered a small dark colored ring with a dark red hint to it on his middle finger. It was just a small band with three almost unnoticeable gems imbedded in the metal. At the same time siphiria looked down at hers, a small silver ring with an almost blue hint to its color. Like maku's it had small gems in it but hers only had one.

[Alan the fox]

Rezia turned her head and saw Slayn looking over, "Do you have a problem. Dont look at me." Rezia said

"Havent you ever saw a pow(prisoner of warf) before?" Rezia said coming out of shadow annoyed by Slayn showing she was a female silver fox.

Rezia had also removed her cuffs and covered Slayns mouth to keep from saying anything about it.


______________________________________________

Aalamas laughed but not at Maku but anger over having something his daughter made in his armor got up and hit Maku so hard he went head over heels, "You broke it I will make you pay!" Aalamas screamed.

[Kiva Darkbane]

slayns eyes grew red. he just met this chick and he wanted to kill her and if it wasn’t for the magic cuffs she would be. he tried to calm him self but with lil effect he was still angerd. the air around him grew darker and began to move like radiation waves. the cuffs glowed but didnt melt. the ground around him where he knelt was turning black with what looked like cracks extending from it. then suddenly it vanished. and a guard came running in "what the hell!" he looked around and saw nothing wrong so he went back to his post. "i cant looses it... not again" slayn thought

[Alan the fox]

Rezia laughed, "Try as you will you will never scare me little boy ahahahah."


Rezia then walked over to the lock and looked for guards.

[Kiva Darkbane]

slayn lowerd his head and closed his eyes. "this is going to suck" slayn thought to him self.
he then bit through the cuffs that girl shoved in his mouth. "your nuts."

[Alan the fox]

"Nuts nope a female that i am" Rezia said laughing at Slayn once more.

"Now be quite so i can pick the lock with my claw." Rezia commanded.

[Kiva Darkbane]

slayn smiled "i wouldnt do that my dear."
