ROM 4: New Horizons

((Um, are we ditching Ivy here or is she going to be following us around for a while?))

*Josiah and Virgo arrived shortly after Neo's group as did David along with Jeff, Ibun, and Ivy. Together, they waited for Simeon, Shauni, Silver, and Opal to arrive.*

((Lame post but I just wanted to get more characters to the meeting point.))

((Keep Ivy around...))

Simeon was already in his smithy, working the forge. The hiss of metal hitting water was heard as the cloaked blacksmith turned to greet his guests.

"Hullo, Master Josiah. Is everyone here?" he asked, examining the brand new Tao edged sword he had cooled.

"Not yet, but they should be here soon." *Josiah glanced at the others.*

"Hey," *David's voice was low,* "what are we going to do about Ivy? I wouldn't feel comfortable leaving her here without a guard but I'm not exactly comfortable with her traveling with us either since she was a boss character and all."

"Wasn't Virgo a boss too?" *Neo has been listening in on the conversation.*

"Not exactly..." *Josiah tried to figure out how to explain it.* "See, when Moen created the zodiacs the data he had for Virgo was currupted so he tried to fix it by using data from another character from the game. But the character he chose was good and the conflict ended up creating two Virgos, a good and a bad."

"That's right. My evil side tried to absorb me to become stronger but Josiah saved me and had Codo purify the evil. So, technically I was never a boss, the other Virgo was."

*Neo frowned, a little confused by the explanation.* "You know, you guys should really write all this stuff down sometime. Some of the things that happened to you are really confusing."

Shauni had been sat on the roof of the smithy for a while and when she heard Josiah talk about Virgo, she flew down and landed next to Neo, grinning at him
"I would think Ivy is the least of our worries. Things are changing here if you guys hadn't noticed. Who's to say Ivy was ever ment to BE a boss. Maybe it was her short falls that where used to transform her"

She walked away and viewed Simeon's work
"This is very nice....I have a request of you lion-thi-....no, you deserve a grander title than that..."

SHauni lent back. it was clear to simeon it was Amber talking, but her voice hadn't changed at all
"I think I'll call you Simba for a while. We like that name"
hauni closed her eyes and shock her head "I'm sorry about those two..."

"I like you! Your furry!"
"I'm find Simba interesting"

Shauni sighed again
"I know youve been watching over me, just like you have these children. Thank you"
She bowed
"Do yo like yarn?"
"Kohaku! Don't ask it stupied questions!"

Meanwhile outside clouds begain to form. Within moments the sky over the whole area was covered with a layer of clouds blocking out the sun and the area became like that of a really cloudy day. Though luckly it didn't look like it was going to rain.

"I find this appopriate for the situation."

Post by **shauni** » Mon Apr 03, 2006 11:53 am

Shauni glanced at the sky
"An ill omen for us I fear..."
She sighed "indeed, this cloud fills me with dread"
Shauni suddenly smiled
"I'd like to see the rain from those clouds"

((Hey Shauni, I'm assuming that we can hear all this stuff you're saying...))

"What the heck is she talking about?"

"At this point, I don't even want to know." *Josiah sighed.* "Where the heck are Silver and Opal?"

Simeon growled audibly as he put away the new sword edge he had just forged.

"... That fiend..."

(I should have posted sooner, but I'm having a terrible case of writer's block)

Shauni went red a little as she realised her conversation with the sisters had come out loud
"Umm....hey, Simeon sir...could you, um..."
"We need you to make us a weapon"
Shauni pulled out the two Holy Daggers she had
"This weapon is okay for slashing at minions, but now the Cursed daggers we slept within are gone and our power restrain...we have little way of willing our own protection"
"My monster are strong enough"
"But we would prefer to defend ourselves"

Simeon glanced at the Tao edge he had just forged.

"Are you familiar with the Chinese straightsword, Lady Amber? The Tao edges are things of beauty and balance, perfect catylysts for your power..."

Post by **shauni** » Tue Apr 04, 2006 10:26 am

Shauni took the blade then suddenly threw it into the air, and it twisted 3 times before she caught it by the handle
"This is very fine work"
She look at the blade closer "And it has a flawless edge."
She then did a drew majestic slices forward into open space then threw the blade and caught it again
"This will do fine for us for now"
She then placed the sword threw her belt and it hung nicely down her side
"We know blades better than any others, as we existed as them for a long time"
She then looks at the archangel with a glimpse of interest in her eye
"That is a fine blade you have there....please, tell me, where did you get it"

Finally, Opal and Silver appeared.

"Sorry we're late. There was a flock of these blue birds with a white and red chest....Silver went crazy and attacked all of them." She apologised.

"And I got them all. Fear the power of pidgeot!" Silver laughed evily.

" You don't even have a pidgeot..." Opal said dimly

Post by **shauni** » Tue Apr 04, 2006 10:48 am

Shauni heard Opal and Silver's comment and couldn't help but giggle, losing all interest in the archangel, to Simeon's relief
"Can we go now? Don't we have to rescuse something"
"Someone"
"A little girl"

"Ok, everyone's here. Let's get moving." *The tone of Josiah's voice showed that he was growing impatient.*

*Simeon led the group outside of the village and towards the forest. David, Jeff, and Ibun continued to stick close to Ivy while Silver continued his attempts to keep an eye on Neo without looking like he was. At Josiah's request, Virgo was staying near Shauni. At the moment, she was wondering if it would be worthwhile, or even possible, to engage the other girl in a conversation.*

*Josiah stayed at the front of the group near Simeon. Although the guardian seemed trustworthy, Josiah sensed that there were still many mysteries about him and many truths that he kept hidden. But what could they be? After all the time spent building his information network in Orca, Josiah was not as tolerent of being left in the dark as he once was.*

Shauni glanced at Virgo
"I suppose you want to ask me why I keep talking to myself"

She smiled
"It is indeed an interesting story"

She then sighed
"Our feet hurt"
