“How pathetic…” Ragyn jumped off of the tree he had been resting in while mildly enjoying Zagato’s display. The ring of awakening on Zagato’s finger crying out to control him in its thirst for blood. Very quaint. Ragyn landed effortlessly on the ground behind Sol Zagato and with the same force of dispatching a butterfly from his face merely waved his hand and the once undead Sol froze, encrusted by crystal of purple hue.

“My my Kyle. Do you see what your father has to offer you? A weakling just like the Knights and their…Guru. Your mother is under my control.” He sneered watching Kyle’s un-passive eyes. “Don’t for get that I have your powers and sadly you were rendered much like your father and mother. Helpless. If you want my suggestion you should beg for mercy upon my feet. Or…” Ragyn turned away from him giving his open back.

“You could join me just as easily. I think I will give you that choice.” Swiftly he jerked around till he was mere inches away from the gem that Zagato had become. “Such a find… a stored resource in which I can tap into. This is no longer your father nor…” His eyes drifted down to the girl near Kyle’s feet. “Nor yours Naomi.” He laughed softly running a hand down the cold crystal.

“Do get mad little Naomi… little Kyle. Struggle or join me. I will return within a forth night. Be prepared to answer me or fight. I will not let you get away from my …hands unscathed. Saccharine isn’t it?” With another wave of his hand Zagato vanished arriving near Kuu in the underground passage ways of Cephiro.

“Go.. your precious Guru.. or rather your brother’s cause is about to start.” Ragyn vanished in the same haze that transported Kyle and the rest to the grand assembly.

Kyle stood there thinking. It was true that he had his powers, and Kyle was useless. He shook his head and glanced down at the poisoned Naomi. Arrows were sticking out of her and he had to get her help quick. He picked her up and glanced back to where Ragyn had been. "Alright, I'll join you. I would rather die as a fighter than die as a helpless human being." Kyle muttered walking away with his wounded sister. He arrived in the assembly room and smiled slightly. "I am sorry to interrupt, but it seems we have had a slight problem this morning. Someone manage to tend to her. I have some business I have to tend do. Any one of you that follows me will regret it dearly. That is all."

Chad ran over to Kyle. "Hey! What are you--?" He stopped suddenly, his blue eyes widening. He staggered back and fell to his knees, holding his stomach. "Why did you--?" Kyle's face remained straight- forward, not even glancing over at his brother. "You would be wise to listen to my words, brother. We are no longer friends. We are enemies. For your own sake, stay out of this war. It doesn't concern you." Chad winced in pain as he heard his brother's words and gritted his teeth. "I can't believe you. We're trying to keep peace around here. Why do you want to turn on us? On me?" Kyle walked out, not saying another word. His decision was made. He would stand by Ragyn's side, as much as he regretted it. He reached the forest of silence and called out to Ragyn. "If you are here, show yourself now, Ragyn. I don't have much time to waste. Let's hear what you have to offer on your side. If anything." His eyes were as emotionless as ever, his shades glimmering as he spoke.

Chad stood up coughing a little. "Well that went just great. Now we have to fight against my own brother. I've had such a wonderful week." he said grimly. Megor cast a glance over. He had almost pitied the young man for having such a hard time in his life. He shook his head, not wanting to say anything though. He had sworn himself as Chad's enemy and even though a slight feeling of regret for doing such a thing was starting to dwell inside of him, he had too much pride to admit it. Megor glanced back ahead at the Guru and crossed his arms firmly, holding himself back from saying anything.

Chad limped over to Naomi and kneeled down. "I wonder if Kyle did this to you." He said placing a hand on the side of her head. He raised his eyebrows and cast a glanced at everyone. "Hey, before we get started, does anyone know how to take care of poison? I don't want to lose anyone before we even get started!"

Rulya's day was just going great. First she woke up late, then she lost her food, then she go teleported into the sky, and then she landed in some water in a strange world. The emerald hair girl was a little more then ticked. "I'm gonna kill the next thing I see!"

"Hey, before we get started, does anyone know how to take care of poison? I don't want to lose anyone before we even get started!"

Her ears picked up a voice and she went to go have a look. It was a tall young man, and he seemed to be concerned about the girl. She walked over by them, not even looking at whom ever else was there and lead down so her head was level and next to the man's face. "I do. Why ya wanna know? Is she hurt?" The purple-eyed youth reached out her hand and lightly lifted Naomi's chin. "Hmmmmmm" Not taking her eyes off Naomi, she addressed the man. "Were was she hit with it?"

Chad glanced over at the girl who had just arrived. "Eh? Well...They are still sticking out of her. I'm afraid to take them out because I'm afraid it will open the wound even more and she'll bleed more! Can you do something about it and the poison?" he asked looking at Rulya.

Rulya took in a deep breath and counted to ten. She didn't even know any one here, let alone how she had managed to get here, and she was already helping others. "Just like being back at home," the girl thought. "God I just want to go home!!! All I did was counter punch a monster's fist while saving a lady and *POOF*, I'm a million miles up in the sky and then fall into a huge lake!" she mentally screamed. Turning her eyes to Chad, she looked into his eyes intensely for a moment, then a smirk found its way to her face. "If you know how to do this the wounds won't open more, and the poison shouldn't be a problem. Don't worry. Smile."

The young woman picked up the little girl with the long black hair. She walked through the crowds of people, not caring if they stared. "I must be a sight to see though." She thought. "Here I am, soaked from falling in that lake, my hair is most likely out of whack, and I'm carrying a girl with things sticking out of her. God I must look freaky to these guys." She exited the room and walked down a hall. "Nice......." she thought as she admired how nice the castle looked to anything she had ever seen before. Not far from the original room were she had found the girl, Rulya opened a door leading to empty room with a desk, a couch, a pitcher of water on the desk, and a few bookshelf's. "This will work just fine." Rulya said with a smile. She laid the child down on the couch and brushed some of the hair off her forehead. "This will only hurt a little."

Slowly and gently, the older girl pulled the arrows from the younger one, placing them next to her feet. After they all had been removed, she sucked the poison out of her veins, spitting it onto the floor. When that was all done, Rulya looked around for something to bandage up her wounds, finding nothing. She sighed but she noticed her half skirt as she lowered her head. "Well, that will work." She tarred cloth out from the inner part of it and wrapped up Naomi with gentle care. Finally, she was done with that. Tearing off one more piece of cloth, Rulya drenched in in the cold water, folded it, and put it on Naomi's forehead. "That should stop the fever." the soaking wet girl sighed. She let Naomi stay on the couch while she walked over by the desk, sat down in the chair, and stared at the wall in front of her. "Why me?" she asked out loud, before allowing her head to hit the hard desk. Rulya let it stay there, he arms hanging lip at her sides. She most likely absorbed a small amount of the poison and was getting a headache. She just stayed there in the position and stared at the floor as her forhead resd on the edge of the desk. "I'm seriously gonna kill the next thing I see..."

Naomi slowly opened her eyes, cautiously looking around. Noting that she was in the Cephiran castle she sat up wincing at the wounds. She looked at the bandages and everything wiping her forehead with the cool cloth. Naomi then noticed the girl. She went over to her. "Ne, did you do this?" She asked mentioning to the bandages while her other hand felt the girls forehead. "You really shouldn't have. My magic would of taken care of the wounds and I'm immune to most poisons, but thank you." She said and took a leaf from one of her pouches out and handed it to her.

"If any poison got in you this should help, just chew on it and swallow the juices that come from it. When you can't swallow anymore juices you need to spit it out, though I'd like it if you'd give the leaf to me so I can plant it with the rest to try and grow them." Naomi said and smiled sitting back on the bed.

She tarred cloth out from the inner part of it and wraped up Namomi with gental care. Finaly, she was done with that. Taring off one more pice of cloth, Rulya drenched in in the cold water, folded it, and put it on Naomi's forehead. "That should stop the feveer." the soaking wet girl shighed. She let Naomi stay on the couch while she walked over by the desk, sat down in the chair, and stared at the wall in front of her. "Why me?" she asked out loud, before allowing her head to hit the hard desk. Rulya let it stay there, he arms hanging lip at her sides. She most likely absorbed a small amount of the posin and was getting a head acke. She just stayed there in the position and stared at the floor as her forhead resd on the edeg of the desk. "I'm seriously gonna kill the next thing I see..." Rulya looked up at the girl before slowly sitting up straight, her back lightly cracking. "Nah, it's ok little girl." She offered a small smile. The 16 year old girl had had worse done to her, so this was no biggy. "I just have a head ache that's all. It will go away soon. And I didn't know little girls had magic."

Naomi slowly opened her eyes, cautiously looking around. Noting that she was in the Cephiran castle she sat up wincing at the wounds. She looked at the bandages and everything wiping her forhead with the cool cloth. Naomi then noticed the girl. She went over to her. "Ne, did you do this?"

When you can't swallow anymore juices you need to spit it out, though I'd like it if you'd give the leaf to me so I can plant it with the rest to try and grow them." Naomi said and smiled sitting back on the bed.

Rulya looked up at the girl before slowly sitting up straight, her back lightly cracking. "Nah, it's ok little girl." She offered a small smile. The 16 year old girl had had worse done to her, so this was no biggy. "I just have a head ache that's all. It will go away soon. And I didn't know little girls had magic."

The emerald haired young woman stood up and undid the belt that was holding her orange half skirt in place and wrung out the skirt. After she was done, she walked over to the bed by Naomi and sat down next to her, handing back her leaf. "Maybe one day when I really need it I'll eat it, but right now you should plant it so you can grow more."

"Maybe one day when I really need it I'll eat it, but right now you should plant it so you can grow more."

Rulya felt her long hair begging to be let down instead of contained in it's boy like manner. Slowly she pulled the violet ribbon head band away and her hair went from boy short all the way down to the bed and over the sides (Like how Emarulds hair looks, just emerald green). She wrung that out as well and then glanced back over at the girl. "I like your hair. It's soooo pretty. By the way, what is your name?"

Behind her cool exterior, Rulya was screaming. "MAGIC!!! What the heck? I wanna got home!!!" she yelled at herself mentally. Lucky for her she was a rather good actress so Naomi couldn't possible tell what she was thinking. Finally her head calmed down. "She is a sweet girl. Maybe it's not as bad as I thought.

Naomi seemed a little upset when called a little girl, sure she looked about 10 or 12 but she couldn't help it! And as for her 7 year old shape, she like it because she could reserve alot more energy in a small body. Energy that she desperately needed.

"Please don't call me a little girl, I'm older than I look." Naomi said smiling at her cheerfully. She blushed at the comment about her hair but continued to smile. "My names Naomi. My guardian is Moro, you'll meet her sooner or later." She said, still smiling.

"Naomi, what a pretty name." She raised her hand to herself. "I'm Rulya Massies. It is nice to meet you. Oh and sorry for calling you a little girl. can you forgive me?" Rulya swiftly garbed the ends of her hair and with making some swift turns and twist comibned with the ribbon head band, her hair look short once more. "Who is Moro?"

Naomi blushed once again when the comment was made. She nodded, accepting the apology though not really caring if she got one or not. "Umm... Moro is my guardian, like a parent, both my parents... went away but my mama's come back." Naomi said. It wasn't a lie... just not the whole truth. "Moro is.. umm.. Well, she's coming so hang on." Naomi said and opened the door. A white cloud came in and went to the middle of the room, before changing its shape. It turned into a 4 feet high, 6 feet long, white wolf. Naomi pet its side before sitting down. "This is Moro."

Turning his head at the voice, Ferio noted that the young woman he was sitting next to was addressing him. He smiled, shaking her hand and nodding at her. "It's a pleasure to meet you, Leilandra. I don't think I've seen you around here before," he replied. "So, in that case, an unofficial welcome to the palace. I'm sorry our circumstances aren't too inviting right now, though..."

He briefly glanced towards the front of the room, where Guru Clef was standing, a slightly worried frown creeping across his features, then he turned back to face Leilandra again. Mildly astonished at her immediate willingness to help here, yet quite pleased, the prince's smile widened. "Thanks for that offer," he said. "Madoushi Clef will hopefully talk to us soon, about what we need to do in the upcoming weeks, or however long it will take."

Leilandra's smile only grew wider as he offered his apology. "It's all right Lord Fario. I know I'm a tad bit rusty at the moment, but my magic will improve. By the way, the reason you have never seen me is because I live in a remote area on the outskirts of your kingdom. I had to walk the whole way here." She noticed the frown creep to his face, and she herself felt a little sad. Then her smile returned. She lightly pulled one of her flowers out of her hair and held it out to him. It looked like a rose, but it was a bright emerald green color in the center, but towards the edge of the petals, they were fading into white. "Cheer up sir. This flower is one of the rarest in all of Cephiro, and is said to bring good luck and happiness to all who have one."

Rulya could only try to keep herself from screaming and betting the living daylights out of something. "Ok." She thought. "A white cloud just turned into a huge wolf that is her guardian, she can use magic, and there are monsters running ramped around this place. God I wanna go home!" She only smiled on the outside though. "Oh, so this is Moro! I've never seen a wolf this big. were I come from they only get about this big." She made a motion with her hand on how tall they got. Her smile then faded a bit. "I know what it's like to be without your parents. I lost mine in a rather large car accident. I lost my older brother as well. He mente a lot to me." She chose to leave out the part that it had been her fault that they all died, and the details of how it happened. Rulya's smile then came back. "Well, at least your Mom is back. Is she nice?"

"Yes, very." Naomi said continuing to pet Moro. "Moro isn't like the rest of the monsters around Cephiro. She's a spirit." She said, Moro shrunk in size a bit. "You're much calmer then most people who meet Moro, she scares alot of people."

"Do you come from the world that the Magic Knights come from?" Naomi asked, Moro jumping on the bed and laid on her lap. "You seem alot different and I've never heard of cars. If you do come from that world will you tell me about it?"

Chad sighed and gathered his thoughts. Hopefully his sister would be alright, but they had to hurry if they wanted to stop this wild war. Chad cracked his knuckles and awaited his mission. His worries now had to be cast aside, would Skyhawk show up again? He looked at Megor who was also glaring at Clef. The two awaited eagerly, to see who would go where and when.
