Slowly breathes out as I pin another photo to a board with various strins connecting them ...This is a shit show
18:07:21
I sit down at my desk and hum as I stare at the board, steepling my fingers
18:08:42
Sighs as I rub my eyes Wish I had fresh eyes on this
18:12:24
Comes in with a cup of coffee and sets it near Draco ...Draco... you've been at this for days now
18:16:05
Takes the coffee and silently drinks it I know. This situation is just... frustrating
18:16:33
I get that, I mean... an unknown force is planning something after all
18:17:06
((Nice~
watches))
18:17:25
I have an inkling but I can't confirm anything yet
18:17:43
Looks back at the board of photos, documents, and transcripts ...I really can't believe that the person doing this is a descendent of a branch family
18:18:32
You and I both know genetics are weird. Considering you know... everything
18:19:02
Yeah, yeah that's true... ugh
Sits back in my chair, sipping my coffee with narrowed eyes
18:19:37
...Draco... can... you promise me something?
18:19:57
Yeah, anything. We're family
18:20:06
Holds Draco's hand softly ...If you do end up doing this alone... come back to us alive
18:20:40
...I don't... I don't want to lose my only brother
18:20:54
I give a small smile I'll do my best. I won't let some maniac take me down that easily
18:21:26
Smiles back I'm glad
18:21:39
Sighs and sits on a couch Really wish all of this wasn't so exhausting
18:21:59
I wish that also but, unfortunatly, it's gonna be a hell of a situation.
18:22:24
...How are we gonna tell the others?
18:22:43
They've peibably figured out by now I've locked myself in my office basically and are gonna visit
18:23:18
I doubt any of them wouldn't be concerned and want answers
18:23:33
In the meantime, I'm gonna just keep an eye on things
Grabs out a document and reads it over
18:24:35
Nods and grabs out a book to read it (For now, things are a little on pause until people come in)
18:27:37
(Can't let things be just a small group imo)
18:27:50
((I'm doing stuff on the side. I'll see if I can jump in later))
18:32:02
(But yeah folks are free to jump in if they want)
18:32:25
I place the document down before sipping my coffee again
18:36:21
Hums ...You'd think someone wouldncome in by now
18:38:51
Sighs and continues sipping my coffee
18:45:21
Peeks right in with a fluffy wave of my tail
18:50:45
Heya Ame
Sips my coffee with a stressed expression
18:51:05
Waves at the wolfie also
18:51:20
Comes inside and sits nearby before waving to both Draco and Virgo Heya Draco, and hiya Virgo^^
18:52:07
How are you both doing?^^
18:52:16
Good inspite of... well
Gestures to the board with various photos of destroyed land and charred trees
18:52:57
Our current situation
18:53:16
Notices the multiple photographs of destroyed areas and charred trees....and looks alarmed while also perplexed Ummmm...what happened?
18:54:03
Your trashcan look mighty flammable Draco :3
18:54:16
...Ethan, normally I'd appreciate the jokes but no (eh, it's cool. Little funny tbh)
18:54:55
Well Amelia. Turns out someome related to my past life has decided to come onto Dragonia and take over a piece of my land
18:55:34
For what reason? We don't know
18:55:45
Draco here locked himself here for days looking for answers
18:56:07
My wolfish ears were perked up in an attentive manner as I listened with great interest while my tail sways in a calm manner... I cross my arms as a rather pensive look was now present on my face. Mhhhmm... so if it's someone related to your past life...did you already figure out who it is yet?
18:57:33
...Someone who wants to continue the Hands Of Light's work
18:57:57
That's my theory. After all... they're clearly wanting to settle the score with me after destroying their organization all those years ago
18:58:39
A sympathetic look then appears on my face when I hear from Virgo how long Draco has been doing this...before nodding my head some more...looking more and more interest. Question...whose the Hands of Light...if you don't mind me asking~
18:59:01
...For good reason; doubt anyone here wants the total eradication of all things Magic
18:59:03
And well, they're an Inquisition. They operate in the dark for well... their goal which I stated
18:59:31
walks in and waves just in time upon hearing about a certain organization Hey Draco, Virgo, and Ame!
looks over to Draco Draco, I know I just came in, but I swear you mentioned a certain organization again...
18:59:44
Ahhhhh...
nods my head as I hear his answer before seeing Aleda walking into the office with a wave as I wave back Hey, Aleda~
19:00:33
Indeed I have, Hands Of Light
19:00:53
nods and smiles at Ame before looking back at Draco Wait... you mean the jackasses that were planning on crashing your wedding with Kiki many months ago?
19:01:23
No, those people were wanting to mimic them. A copycat
19:01:46
Sighs Had a feeling that's all they were... just a copycat
19:02:10
This person is actually descended from a member
19:02:26
So... yeah, that's an issue
19:02:38
Damn! Basically, a bad apple, eh? I know I haven't been on Dragonia for a while, but I heard some shit happened recently. I'm guessing connected to... well...
gestures over at the paperwork
19:04:09
More or less, we've been investigating this. They already took out an entire squadron... and this was ONE person
19:04:45
One person took out some of the best we had that were there to observe the situation
19:05:11
...You can already know what response that illicits
19:05:30
nods my head as I've been listening to all of this quietly...a surprised look on my face when I hear what happened recently. Damn....I am starting to wonder what kind of tactics or skills this person even had to be able to do such a thing~ Mhhmmm...that definitely means somethings up~
19:07:51
More the power they have. Flames Of Gluttony is a powerful ability to have
19:08:31
I reach into my pocket and take out a cig given by Kara Wow...
A minor zap of lightning from my guitar lights up the cig as I put it in my mouth Heh... need any help? I think my combat bard skills are still up to par when we last had a piece of shit threaten us
19:10:31
We're observing for now
19:11:15
I sigh I'm not taking a chance here
19:11:32
A rare sight to see me exhale a puff of smoke seeing as it's usually a bottle I would choose for something like this I see. Well, just let any of us know, Draco. I wouldn't mind going into the battlefield yet again, if needed
19:12:31
Yeah... I know
Suddenly an alarm blares, making me blink before nodding and getting up, walking out of the door
19:13:10
Gets up to follow, gesturing the others to follow It's very clear we got new info
19:13:34
Nods my head with immense understanding as my furry tail remains still...my arms still crossed... That definitely makes sense...well...if there's anything I can do...I'm willing to help with whatever~
Hears that alarm and Virgo's words as I follow.
19:13:56
blinks out of curiosity Huh? What's this now?
follows the rest of the group
19:14:17
Walks down a corrifor before entering an elevator, looking at everyone as they enter This is a secret access code... so do not tell anyone this. Understood?
19:14:57
I'll probably forget it after a drink... which, I'll have a feeling I'll need after this, anyway
19:16:26
Opens a panel and presses a few buttons before saying into the speaker Ad coelos pervenimus, Obscuros patimur
19:18:02
The Elevator doors then close before moving downward, the floor indicator going past the ground floor and swapping to a different set of floors. After a moment, the elevator doors open and I walk out
19:19:07
...Ladies, gentleman... welcome to the Office of Dragoons.
All around is various people monitoring various things with a large electronic board showing a variety of information
19:21:09
My arms were still crossed as we were in the elevator while it made its journey to the intended destination. Once the door finally open and Draco walks out, I peek my head before following right behind him...looking all over the place...with an amazed look on my face. Mhhhmmm~
19:21:57
I walk forward and place my hands on a rail on a balcony looking down at the lower area Immediate Status Report
19:22:13
The Electronic board as a man wearing a white suit with a butterfly mask walk in Sir, the area that has the Hands Of Light Descendent has gotten worse. They've hijacked electronic equipment
19:23:23
Heh... quite the set up. It'd be almost funny if the Booty Warri--oh, shit. That doesn't sound good...
in response to latest development
19:24:10
Nods at the AI Philemon... can you tell us why?
19:24:34
Philemon nods To send a message here to The Capital
19:24:56
We got the recording... do you wish to hear it?
19:25:10
I peeked over the railing....before starting to hear those rather concerning developments...remaining silent while I listened.
19:25:26
I sigh and pinch the bridge of my nose ...Yes. Please play it
19:25:35
Philemon nods before playing an audio file Sek! I tire of your passiveness! I will invoke a great power if you do not face me! You have three weeks. Three weeks to comply
19:26:38
As the audio file stops, I clench the guardrail hard enough to bend the metal ...Philemon... activate Code: Foxtrot Alpha Theta 12
19:27:38
Philemon nods before I look at the others In two days time we'll face them... this won't stand
19:28:03
I just look at Draco with a knowning gaze... and nods
19:28:22
I grasped onto the rail as soon as I hear that...looking even more curious from hearing that recording...before noticing the railing Draco held being bent at that moment...before seeing him and Virgo exchange those nods
19:28:53
Ah... freaking ultimatums.
I mumble and then look over just in time to see Draco bend the guardrail Damn! That's metal as fuck, dude, but shit...
19:29:24
Yep... we've got preperations to do
19:29:41
Seems so~ Do you plan on telling anyone else besides those of us here?
19:31:02
We'll talk in two days time
19:31:25
Afterward when we all leave the building, I head for an Armory and grab out a partizan with a sigh ...They're gonna hate this... but I'm not risking their lives... this is my battle.
I then grab and airship, flying off to the destination alone
19:31:52
(Yep, he's doing this alone)
19:32:16
(I swear of he dies-)
19:32:28
(The code was to indicate to Virgo that he planned on lying about going together and was gonna do it alone)
19:32:52
(And well Jess... you'll find out tomorrow)
19:33:05
(Draco won't die.. Maybe M.I.A!)
19:33:19
((End scene here then?))
19:33:46
(Tomorrow will be the conclusion)
19:34:03
(That was interesting ^^)
19:34:06
(Yeah, figured this would be a nice bit of lore to do)
19:34:27
(Good read. Missed out on jumping in before the elevator.)
19:34:36
(
sigh if he dies there's going to be a very angry witch around the city)
19:34:48
(But yes. Tomorrow will be the conclusion. May change depending on circumstances)
19:35:03
((Around the same time as today?))
19:35:17
(And well... I will promise this Jess... tomorrow, Draco's death will not be announced. And pretty much)
19:35:31
(Keyword: Announced)
19:35:46
(<.< now I'm more worried)
19:35:47
(But yeah, see y'all tomorrow)
19:36:16
( :^) I'll show up for the conclusion tomorro.)
19:36:20
** Draco The Breeder left the game (definitively). **
19:36:31
bot
Hey? Are you awake?
19:36:31
