Lomachislots War - Lost Childhood (Original) ~
Director of Music:
Phineas leaned back against the wall, his head slightly bowed, tapping his cane in a steady beat. Andy watched him awkwardly but didn't say anything. Phineas looked back up again. "Alright." He said quietly. He shifted his weight slightly as to be more comfortable.
"Question one. Where are you taking us? Question two, what do you mean "Your world." And three...three..." Here, his eyes got hazy. He shook his head briefly and continued. "And three..." He looked over at Rin, his concern rising even though he tried to push it down. "Will Rin...be alright?"
Andy, who was standing up, crossed his arms and leaned back against the wall, looking up at the ceiling. Closing his eyes, waiting for an answer to the millions of questions to his head. Although, Phineas HAD asked some very direct questions. He wondered...
Cracking open an eye, he looked at Finny. He seemed to have changed so much. Phineas was always stoic, but now he seemed completely emotionless. What HAPPENED to you, Finny?
Kasawa Lanford:
Lurea nodded and outstretched her palm. A sudden image appeared and slowly rotated. "We are taking you to a world full of magic, where you will be safe for however long you desire to stay," she said, answering his first quesiton. "Our world was created by master mage roughly a thousand years ago so that those with magic could develop it in safety, so they wouldn't be shuned by the world we now know," she stopped and took in a breath.
"Our world is mostly referred to as a magical realm, which in it's own right is as you can only cross into by those who are gate keepers, like my little sister," she said and looked down at the sleeping Yoko. "While there you can develop your own magic as you see fit, or you can attend school and just learn what is needed to survive in this world," she smiled and then looked over at Rin.
With a heavy sigh she turned her gaze back toward the dirt. "I'm afraid... I don't know if she'll be alright... if we make it back to our world in time then the elder clerics can save her... but it's a slime chance. I don't know what the idiots here did to her, what they administered into her blood stream, but whatever it is is killing her from the inside out," she said, unsure if the boys would understand. "If she were to awaken now she'd scream out in pain," Lurea shook her head. "As long as we get back in time she... might be alright..." she said and smile at the boys.
"I'm sure you have more questions for me, like perhaps who we are, why was magic created, or why were you gifted, or perhaps cursed depending on how you look at it, with magic," she said and laid her back up against the stealth field.
Director of Music:
Phineas nodded, waving a hand at all of them. "Yes, yes all of them." However, he was quite furious when he heard about Rin. He shakily stood up, his eyes flaring. "She'll be alright. Rin. I know her. She won't give up. She'll make it."
Andy nodded. "Yeah. Both of em will. They'll make it...They have to..."
Kasawa Lanford:
Lurea almost knew that Phineas was going to ask for them all. "I can explain a few things, but some are better explained by the elders," she said as she looke to her right. Outside the stealth field a group of foriegn soldiers ran past the alley were they were hiding. One soldier stopped, raised his rifle and scanned the alley with the rifle's powerful light.
After two minutes the soldiers lowered his rifle, turned to his right and said something that none of them could hear before running off. As they watched them leave Lurea let out a low growl that made Anise shiver. She let a minute pass before turning her attention back to the boys and their questions, "I can't really explain the magic part very well, espically since the person most fluent in it is asleep right here," she said and looked down at Yoko.
Anise blinked and placed her finger up to her chin and asked. "How come?"
"Yoko.... is a special case within our group; she's the most knowledgable about magic and as such, retains a high position. However, she's also one of the youngest in terms of apperence," Lurea said. Anise just nodded, she didn't really understand much but was trying. "There's a history behind Yoko, but it would take a long time to explain, it'll be best to wait until we get to our world," she said and relaxed her hand. "My collegue and I are apart of a 'rescue' team, Yoko is also a member as well as a few other people you might've met. We search for potential magic users like yourselves and try and protect you behind the scene's from those who would interfere with your lives. However, once you start showing magic then we usually jump in and either help you learn to control it... or to banish it," Lurea said.
Her partner shifted on his right leg in order to get more comfortable. "My name's Syran by the way," her partner said. He smiled slightly and looked away from the boys and toward the exit. "We can't explain how the process works, how a person is 'selected' to inherit the ability to use magic. All we know is that it just happens, you three, myself, Lurea... we've all been through the same process of discovering our powers. Each one of us has a unique ability that no one else has, Sakura is one of the examples, and perhaps is the one person who has a wide range of use's. As I'm sure you know her singing is beautiful, but she is also able to use it as a deadly weapon," he said before his head snapped to right and down the alley.
"What's wrong?" Lurea said, tension in her voice. "Trouble... seem's someone is using an anti-stealth spell to look for us, we have only a few minutes left before they find us. Lurea, I can't use Crisalise since I've using my current magic to keep Rin alive..." Syran said. Lurea nodded and stood up, "you boys want to know the full extend of a magi's power? Then watch and learn," she said and stepped out of the stealth field, which promptly collasped it.
She dipped her hand into her pocket and pulled out what looked like a small medallion, she then pulled out a second one from her other pocket and placed them on the ground. "Inheriters of the light, of power, of nature. Grant me thy armor, thy skin and bring upon thee my weapon," she chanted as the medallions glowed green before a power wave of energy lashed out. The shockwave shattered the windows, causing the glass to fall to the ground, yet strangely not toward the group.
Lurea's normal attire suddenly pulsed; her jacket vanished revealing a plain white shirt which also vanished and was then replaced by another shirt that was dark blue, shoulder pads appeared on her shoulders and chainamil along her arms. Her hands were covered in a gauntlet and her legs were covered in chainmail leggings.
On her face four long metallic bars appeared just under her eyes and nose and ran toward the back of her head where they disappeared under her long hair. In her hand a large staff materealized. She spun the staff around before taking a defensive stance, "this... is what it means to be a Magi..." she smiled, even though she knew they couldn't see it.
Director of Music:
Phineas merely nodded, alert. Andy however, was beside himself. "HOLY...WOW...THat's the...what the...how....I...can we?...Wow..." Flushed, he looked over at Lurea who was smiling down at him, and Phineas, who remained motionless.
Andy, who was just pumping with adreneline said, "I sure am ready to go to that...magical transport thingy!"
Phineas slowly got up. "It's called a magical realm, Andrew." He briefly looked around at the small group. He glanced at Yoko, who was stirring, and back out the window. "This is all nice catching up and all, but we..really should go. They're..." he hesitated, "Making me nervous."
