Gale wasn't surprised by the fact that Karen had questioned his choice to follow the flare. After all he was basing this entirely off a hunch and with the current situation at hand, there wasn't a whole lot of time that could be used to second guess himself. "I may not know where they got the flare assuming that it is Drake and Veera who fired it, but there's still a chance that it was them and I'll take it." Having said that, Gale continued in the general direction of the flare. It had already vanished in the night sky, thus leaving them with a general guess as to where it was. At this point they were nearing the middle of the city as a building could be seen in the distance. Was this where the flare was fired off from? There was something else that he wondered as they got closer to the building. At the distance they were current;y at, he could make out there being two figures in front of the building, but he didn't recognize them just yet. The closer they got thought the figures became clearer and clearer until it was pretty obvious as to who they were. It was Drake and Flame who were standing in front of the building. As greats as a sight as that was, Drake looked to be worse for wear as he was injured a bit. As for Flame, well he wasn't even sure when she's gotten here but least nothing had happened to her. "Drake are you okay? Where's Veera?" Those were the first two things that Gale could think to ask.
Having decided to put the thoughts on what he'd heard on hold for the time being, he went back to doing one of the few things that he actually could do. Zephyr started to look around and took note of what was going on around him. Nothing much to note though, just people talking. That said, by the time he'd decided to do this, Operator had already ran from Alexis, so all he saw was his bumping into Remy and flicking away. Okay, so other than that nothing much other than people talking. Then some random guy had just appeared from a portal made of darkness. This brought about another sigh. It was just one thing about another. After that run of looking around the room Zephyr returned his gaze to just staring off in front of him, simply waiting like he was prior to following Operator up the stairs.
Zephyr wasn't surprised by the fact that Operator hadn't answered his question, so instead of just waiting around Zephyr headed back down to where everyone else. There he found himself a place to sit by himself as he started to put together what he had over heard. According to those voices he heard, someone wants them dead before a certain floor, except for Operator. That one was of the things he was curious about, just what made him special compared to the rest of them. Figuring this out was going to take some time without having anything to go off of other than what he overheard and since chances were the Operator wasn't going to be all that helpful, least to him, in getting answers. He was just going to have to get them himself. The problem with that was he had no idea where to start looking.
"Pretty sure whatever powers the computer, powers the alarm as well." Zephyr said, not entirely sure what Ander was planning on doing. Whatever it was it didn't matter for the group had chosen to advance through the forest towards their next destination. A decision that had lead to their three guides and Ezekiel falling off a cliff and into a swamp before. Hopefully the fall didn't damage them, but with the appearance of the tree monster they kinda had more important matters to attend to. "Hey Virgo." He knew Virgo had expressed a desire for him to become a Celestial Spirit Mage, but least she was in the hands of someone he trusted. Seeing just about everyone break out their new magic, Zephyr decided to do the same. His fist became engulfed in black flames as he charged towards the tree monster. "Flame God's Shattering Fist!" Zephyr aimed his flame covered fist at what he assumed to be the face of the tree monster. Alisa gave the fairy whose name MoK can't remember a nod before holding out her hands towards the ground. Doing this focused her gravity magic around her and only her for the time being. Next Alisa reversed enough of the gravity around her so that she would float up towards the flower, making sure to return the gravity around her back to normal once she was over the flower. "Are you okay?" Alisa asked Silvia. "Basically what Thomas asked and any more information on them would probably be helpful too." Veilen said. Beyond that there wasn't much that he could think to ask for the time being. So the mage just waited til those questions had gotten answers before moving on.
Well shit, literally seconds after stepping foot outside, Sara ran around to the corner of the building. Evidently she wanted a bit more than fresh air. No matter, Zephyr didn't waste much time in going after the little girl. He'd started to turn the same corner that she did when he heard a voice down the alley. It wasn't a voice that he recognized and he was positive that Sara had gone this way. Zephyr then decided to take a quick peek to see just whose voice he'd heard. He certainly didn't see Sara, but he did see some random lady with what looked to be weapons in her hands. This brought about some questions, but for now Zephyr decided to watch from where he was hiding for the time being.
Hearing someone else's voice, Gale looked to seeing that both Akari and Hunter had landed. While Akari was silent for the most part, Hunter had said something about being able to take down more titans than anyone else. "This isn't the time nor the place to be playing a stupid game, let's just focus on getting Drake and Veera back." Gale said, hoping that that would be enough to put Hunter's mind back on tr-wait this is Hunter. So instead he hoped for the best. The group had continued forward when the green flare flew into the sky. At first Gale wasn't sure as to why a flare had been shot up, but when Karen mentioned people in the city wanting to be noticed, he started to get a hunch as to what the flare was. What if Drake or Veera had shot up the flare? He wasn't sure how they'd managed that or even if it was correct, but it was the only clue they had right now."Everyone, we're heading towards that flare." Pointing towards the flare while it was still in the air, Gale headed off in that direction. Hoping that his hunch was right.
The first thing that Lumen did upon entering the dinning hall was to find himself a place to sit, then he started to look around at everything that was set up for them. It was quite impressive just how much had been set up for this, but it was the first meeting of the Adventurers Society after all. So going all out for this occasion was quite understandable. Since Lumen's attention was being focused on looking around at everything that was set up, he didn't notice Anthea when she had first poured his tea. Thus when he saw the cup of tea in front of him, he was a bit confused as to where it came from. That was when he noticed Anthea pouring tea into someone else's cup. While he was grateful, he found her doing so odd since he thought that she too was hear to be a part of the society like the rest of them. Either way, planned on thanking her once she was doing talking to the person she was speaking with now. For now he casually took a sip of the tea as he thought about what to snack on first.
Listening in to what was being said, one key thing stuck out to him the most. The fact that all of the competitors excluding Ze Operator were supposed to be killed. So when he had heard someone whisper into his ear, he turned towards the girl and replied. "All the more reason for us to win." All of which before Ze Operator had decided to notice them. By the time he'd gone an addressed Zephyr, he had his index finger up to his lips in the traditional shushing position. Zephyr was much less concerned with the fact that Ze Operator knew he was there and more with the fact they someone wanted most of them dead. Unfortunately the voices had heard one of them, probably Ze Operator, and someone was now going to investigate. So much was gathering more information. Fortunately they had managed to avoid being spotted due to Ze Operator closing, so when the mountain of a man had gone back into room Zephyr looked towards Ze Operator. "So you going to keep us filled in on what their discussing or what?" Zephyr asked in a hush tone, though he wasn't sure if the tone was needed due to the sound proof door.

Spending one point in stamina and one in willpower. Would spend some crowns but price increases are a thing. And since someone should, I guess I'll equip Tribute as well.
With the teams having been decided, the first thing that Kel took notice was how unique of a team it was. Three members he had actually been on a team with before so he knew how they fought for the most part. There there was D'daear who Kel has had very little experience in working with so he was the black sheep here. Though that didn't mean that he doubted what he could do. There weren't that many people, who are still in the group anyway, that Kel either doubted or questioned. Once again Karina was the first to head out, motioning for everyone else to do the same in her usual emotionless way. Before he could take a step forward, Stratos had approached him with a fist bump. Returning the fist bump, Kel replied with a smirk. "I plan to." Thus having said that, he followed behind the other towards their next destination and battle.
"I figured as much." Kruez replied. It wasn't like he had all that many alternatives on what to do since he was still tagging along with them just for the hell of it. Evidently the only issue with Derrick's plan were the people who would be looking for her. As problematic as that sounded, there wasn't much that Kruez could thing to do to resolve that. Well anything not involving a conflict of sorts. Not having anything else to add, Kruez crossed his arms and leaned back a bit in the chair he was sitting in. Not enough for there to be any noticeable difference in how the chair was seated, but just enough to make him a bit more comfortable. Hearing Tatiana's attempt to ask him something, he looked towards her before answering. "If you're asking why I'm still here, it's cause I don't have anything else to do nor anywhere to go." He's mostly spent his time traveling and staying at whatever place he could afford at the time. Plus there was something he still needed to do, so traveling helped. At least the fire had been put out. Zephyr wasn't sure just how Terra managed to put out the fire, but judging from whatever method she used he figured that she could handle the rest herself. Now as for walking Sara back to her room, the little girl had wanted to go outside for some fresh air first. "Sure." He didn't see much wrong with taking her out to get some fresh air. Seeing as Sara still held on to a part of his sleeve, he used that hand to gently hold her hand took her towards the entrance.
The one thing you need to be truly strong is something to protect, once you have that nothing will be able to stop you. Currently sitting in the barracks, Reitan couldn't help but to recall the his teachers words. Words that would go to be the last piece of advice he'd get from his teacher as he passed away not too long after that. It has been a year since he's teachers passing and Reitan was still no closer to figuring out what his teacher meant. How would having something to protect make him any stronger than he was now? Pondering this would have to wait til another time for upon hearing Carissa's voice. Their time for rest had come to an end. If the Valiant had been spotted then the Order of the Hammer couldn't be too far behind. Perfect chance to prove those last words of his teacher wrong. Making sure to take his lance, Mikazuki, with him, Reitan left the barracks and headed towards the battle. There was a feeling of anticipation inside him for it had been some time since he fought seriously and other than practicing his lance skill. Doing so may have kept him from getting rusty, but it was different from being in an actual battle. "Let's get this started." Reitan said in an confidently manner. Now he made his way towards the battleground, ready for a fight.
As more time went by Zephyr got tired of just standing around waiting for something. Some of the others that were in the stasis room were interacting with one other. Unfortunately Zephyr had no desire to do so at the moment, so that option was out. While he was looking around the room, he noticed that the Operator had started to go somewhere. This intrigued Zephyr so he decided to tag along behind him. Going through the same gap in the door that Operator had, he advanced up the stairs before him, making sure to move as quietly as he could. Voices could be heard the higher he got, but he couldn't make out what they were saying.
Karina putting points into defense? What madness is this?
Lumen took notice to Sanderson and his sister for personal reference as he greeted the newly formed adventurer society. Whether or not it was official at this point or not, Lumen didn't know, but that wasn't going to stop him at all. Following the crowd of people inside, he made his way towards Ms. Arcamere when whoever was in front of in had given their name and approached her. "I'm Lumen Seiker, nice to meet you." Having gotten that out of the way, he walked over towards the dinning hall with everyone else and found himself someplace to sit.
There wasn't really anything wrong with Karina's choice to stay away from large groups and it wasn't like he was going to force her back to the group, cause that wouldn't end well at all. "Well nothing's wrong with that per se, but the others aren't all that bad. Well some anyway." Other than his grasping at straws, for the most part he was right. It was quite the unique group that they had, some good, some bad and some tolerable to some and not to others. Though in the end Karina went off to another dark corner and Kel simply left her alone after that. Seeing Steel being restrain to the table by the mad doctor, the first thing that pop into Kel's mind was Glad I'm not in his position right now. Having someone named Mad Doctor operate on you was not something most people would want to have happen to them. Then the plunger/special tool descended down and began to extract the ink from Steel. A plunger was certainly the last thing that he'd expect to see. The operation seemed to end without anything severe happening to Steel, so all's well that ends well he supposed. Since that was now out of the way, Kel turned his attention to the Keyblade Passing Ceremony between Oswald and Mickey. Were keyblade passing ceremonies a common thing or just for special occasions? Kel couldn't remember whether or not he's heard about those before, but there were some blank spots in his memories as of recently. (Blank spots caused by Moksha re working Kel's background). In an attempt to figure this out, Kel stood there lost in thought. Not noticing the green mist that surrounded them until he'd started coughing because of it. As his coughing died down, Kel overheard and made note of what was said. Only five of us can go fight Master Blot and we have to use blot form as well. It sounded simple enough, despite not knowing what blot for was or did. Karina had been the first one to speak up among the wielder as well as take the first steps towards the final battle (in wasteland), follwed by D'daear. Not having anything else to say, he followed behind the two out of the lab.
