Karik smirked. <span style='color:#25383C'>"I've got a better deal for you."</span> Standing up and facing Shecil eye to eye, Karik held his sycthe in a battle ready position.
<span style='color:#25383C'>"Your parlor tricks don't scare me. Not only that, you failed to answer my questions, Meaning I've got no reason to give you anything. But I am feeling generous today."</span>
Reaching into his pocket, Karik took out a quarter and flipped it by Shecil's feet. <span style='color:#25383C'>"Go buy yourself a gumball you pathetic twerp."</span>

<span style='color:pink'>"Aren't we a little too younge to gamble? Not like there's any pool or air hockey in this world." T'kina pointed out. "They have dice and card games though..."</span>
<span style='color:purple'>"Ah, come on sis. Why can't we play a little poker or dice?" Ransom nudged his sister.</span>
<span style='color:pink'>T'kina sighed. "Fine, what ever."</span>
<span style='color:orange'>"So it's agreed on. Games it is." Joshua led the way.</span>

A voice trailed in Jaron's head.
Follow them apprentice. Never keep them out of your sight. And when you have the chance, use the crystal so that Cancer can do the rest.

Zanther watched the battle and listened to the conversation that proceeded the battle. Right now he had no intrest in getting invovled yet. But the news of some of the portals bothered him. He know they were looking for looking for ones yet undiscovered but still. He hopped his two still worked. Last he knew they didn't know. If fact, he had managed to keep his safe up to this point. But he feared the program he made will spell trouble for them. For now he watched the game of chance that they were begining to play.

They got in to a building {i guess it was a pub or something} and Joshua got out a crystal box. <span style='color:orange'>"We shall play djinnverso. It's a game designed to circumscribe luck in a way, it's mostly about bluffing. There are seven eight sided dice. They are kept in this box so that others can not see your rolls. The rules of the game are not simple. The starting player rolls all eight dice and makes a bid. For example, if you had four of a kind, you would bid as such or-if you wish to be decietful-less. If you believe someone is lying, and they got a lower roll then they bid, you may challenge. If you get it wrong, you lose one point. When you lose three points, you are out of the game. This box is made out of a crystal that can detect magic, and magic is against the rules." here he was looking straight at Ransom. "If this box detects magic then the person using it will be disqualified, and I will take some money. Does anyone not understand?"</span>
{{Yes, it's a real game, no, I didn't make it up, P.B. Kerr did.}}

"What? Do you think that I would cheat?" He was flustered
"Yeah, like you could even attempt it in the first place." T'kina laughed.
Ransom steamed with anger and T'kina sat down. putting her sword back onto her back.
"Ok, who goes first?" She asked Joshua.

Silver mostly just wandered around the whole time - further exploring the town since he had no intention of going home - before eventually deciding tha the most entertaining way to spend his time would be to bother the other terrestrials. He found them playing some dice rolling game and watched from the window since he hadn't exactly amassed a whole lot of money.
"Irregardless" and "Over exaggerated" are NEVER CORRECT EVER because they are redundant
Regardless means "without regard", and adding "ir" on the front actually makes it a double negative; exaggerate means "to overstate" so you're literally saying "over overstate."
Example: I can not exaggerate the importance of this fact enough, regardless of how often people ignore it.

"Err, I suppose we should roll the dice." He rolled, and got a five. "Okay, then, you two roll. Highest goes first, then clockwise."
{{They're sitting, in clockwise order, T'kina, Ransom, Joshua.}}

Cobalt was sitting near his two "friends," arms propped up on the back of the chair. Resting his chin on his arms, he watched Joshua explain the rules. Having declined earlier to participate in what he had long since labeled "gambling," the blue-haired boy was content to simply watch. Another thing that other people at his school made fun of him for. In any case, he was a little disappointed that he couldn't learn how to use his weapon properly. "Oh well," he thought to himself, watching Joshua roll the dice. "I guess the old panic-and-swing-wildly tactic could always work..."

Ransom rolled and obtained a 1. "Shucks." He mumbled.
T'kina laughed as she rolled; 4 "Ah, almost." She rested her hands onto the table. She looked over to her right and saw Cobalt.
"Hay Ransom, it's your friend." She nudged him.
"Huh?" He turned his head to come eye to eye with Cobalt. "Oh, hey." He coughed. "I never really caught your name actually....I'm Ransom, and this is my sister T'kina." he introduced themselves.
(You can control the first round Stevenson. I still don't understand the rules XD)

Joshua took the crystaline box. "Very well." he said. " You say how many dice you roll on your turn out of seven. I'm first, so I have to roll seven, but you can do less then that." he said, throwing the dice. He looked quite pleased with the results, closing the lid and handing it to T'kina. "Three of a kind, plus a pair."
{Oh, I got it now, I'll control the others.}}

Cobalt looked up, a bit embarrased. "I'm sorry, I didn't realize I didn't introduce myself...My name's Cobalt." He cringed. "Scientist parents...took one look at my hair and named me after an element." He sighed. "Ah well. Nice to meet you, Ransom, T'Kina." He smiled faintly, then turned back to watch the game. "This game looks extremely complicated," he thought.
*Taizen crouched atop a rocky slope and scanned the surrounding area.* "Just like I thought, there's a lot of DukaKnights out today." *he muttered as he watched them patrol the surrounding areas.* "At least they seem content to stay out here. Having another batch show up in town would probably ruin my plans. Even so, I'll have to be careful... If anything goes wrong who knows when I'll get another change." *Turning away, he slipped silently down the slope.*
Ransom tried to study Joshua's facial expressions, but he failed at it.
"I trust you." He sighed, looking at Cobalt. "Really? Weird. Our last name is Col[/b[balt
"Well, I challenge." T'kina was determined.
Joshau smirked.
"Alright." He revealed. the dice from the crystal box to show he was telling the truth.
"Fiddle sticks." T'kina slumped back as the three continued the game.
As time passed, Ransom was out of the game.
"Grrr...." he was now sitting beside Cobalt.
Everyone seemed engulfed in the game, not having a care in the world
