Echo of Time: Awakening [PG14]~

[Monster Guy]

Stella Gold
Wielder of the Golden Ox Shield
Zuri

Apparently, those hideous boots Michel had on served some kind of function after all. He kicked the thing down, and it crumbled into a pile of dust. That didn't make them any less hideous in Stella's eyes. They were still dirty and unattractive. Not to mention completely out of place. All the others had traditional fantasy type weapons. His was a pair of disgusting footwear. What kind of weapon is a pair of boots anyway? Clearly, someone got shafted. They might've been tolerable if the horse design on them was one of those cute MLP styled ponies, but it wasn't.

"All right guys, we need destroy the next beacon. I am thinking the one in Aracadia should be the next one..." The guy with the staff points out.

Are you kidding? There are more of these things?

"It's funny. I thought this flame was going to lead us back to Seya at first. Yet it seems the fates have led us to take down the beacons beforehand. Clearly the beacons must be linked to Seya if this happened. Yet, what will happen if we destroy them all?" The white haired girl then produced a red flame, that seemed to be heading in the direction of the Arcadia district. "So, are we taking the same cars?"

"Yeah. C'mon and hop in. We need to get there quickly and I think just flying would get us arrested. Michel, you could come in too, unless of course, you'd prefer to stay with Stella." Caroline said, before heading to her car.

Stella wasn't about to just go along and pretend all of this normal. Awesome as it was, people do not have magical powers in real life. There was obviously more to this story she was missing. She put her hands on her hips. "Now wait just a minute. We is a lot of people. How can you all possibly expect me to follow you all along blindly? Why should I go along with any of this? I don't know anything about this Seya person or whatever it is you all have going on. Also, even if I did buy any of this, why would anyone want to travel around in that ricketty contraption?" She pointed to Caroline's car. "When I have my own fabulous limosine right there that's just so much more comfortable. I also have a driver who knows how to drive like a normal human being, I might add."

[Chaos War Reborn]

Hunter
Wielder of the Red Lightning and the Great Lance
---> Arcadia

In only moments, Milly and Hunter arrived to the sight of bickering, finally reuniting with Seya's Guardians of Light. "I hope you've all regained your memories," Hunter averted his gaze, focusing only on the deserted streets ahead, " ... If not, I'm afraid you'll be entirely useless ..." Hunter turned to Stella as he said the last bit, referring to her.

Milly stepped forward, "The last beacon is in Arcadia but I imagine you've managed to figure that much out."

Hunter didn't trust Milly one bit, in fact he'd kill her right now in front of everybody if it weren't for some information only she had and he desperately needed. Milly was well aware of this.

The red-head in the Maserati, Hunter glanced at her but his expression was cold. He recalled their battle with Hizeah ... And then he recalled his brutal fight against the Black Lorde Knights. Those demons threw him around like a rag doll, shattering the bones of his left arm, busting open his brow and giving him several concussions but still he managed to kill all three. Caroline ... He didn't say a word until something off of the corner of his eye caught his attention, the kind that made him grip his Great Lance tight.

There were shadows moving inside the buildings, you could see from the windows. There were dozens and they moved quickly.

Milly pulled out silverware from the back of her skirt, she held kitchen knives between her knuckles and chuckling half maniacally said, "We have company boys and girls."

Suddenly dozens of dark, faceless humanoids with abnormally stretched out limbs and razor sharp claws for fingers broke through the windows and charged at Milly, Hunter and the Guardians.


Several creatures went straight for Hunter, their claws reaching out. Hunter ducked and caught one by the face, using it to slam against the rest. The creatures screeched as the slammed into the ground. One by one, Hunter quickly stabbed the humanoids with his lance before they could get up but soon had more creatures charging for him. Hunter led the dozen that followed him toward the side of a building and ran upward alongside it, the monsters following close behind. Before reaching the ledge, Hunter twisted his body to face the group of dark creatures head on and dove right through them with a powerful blow, violently smashing them into the asphalt below.

It didn't matter how many Hunter killed off, they just kept coming.

Milly faced her own set of attackers but unlike Hunter, who preferred head on attacks, she flung the knives she held between her knuckles straight for her enemies' foreheads, killing several with limited movement. "We need to get to Arcadia!" She yelled.

Caroline McNamara
Wielder of the Valiant Hawk Scythe
Beacon - Zuri

"Now wait just a minute. We is a lot of people. How can you all possibly expect me to follow you all along blindly? Why should I go along with any of this? I don't know anything about this Seya person or whatever it is you all have going on. Also, even if I did buy any of this, why would anyone want to travel around in that ricketty contraption? When I have my own fabulous limosine right there that's just so much more comfortable. I also have a driver who knows how to drive like a normal human being, I might add." Stella remarked, causing Carly to turn and face the blonde. The redhead held up her hand and gave the other girl the bird.

"Funny how you first think that it's stolen, then turn around and diss it, just because I drive my own damn car. If I need to be fast, then hell, I'll drive fast for all I care! I haven't run over anyone for the three years I've been driving after all. Your chauffeur? He drives like a pussy." She shot back, then snickered at the younger girl as she got into her convertible and started it up as the rest piled in at the back.

"Arcadia...Arcadia...damn, not many small roads in there. Eh, who cares...we have to get there quickly." She murmured to herself as she placed her hands on the steering wheel and started driving, in a few seconds accelerating to the speed she drove at while getting to the beacon. Screw the rules this time, this was important.

"You guys alright back there? Don't worry, just keep your seat belts on and you'll be fine. We'll get there quickly, if nothing stupid happens." She said, looking back from the wheel and reassuring her friends, before facing forward once again and making a sharp turn towards the next corner. Hunter...Seya...she hoped that everything did not take a turn for the worse.
