Mizuki hissed as she spoke "I know my body thank you and I am not being ungreatfull either" He spoke "or would you rather want to clean up a mess of stomach bile and blood with some water I suggest you leave me be" He said glaring at the female. This was when Thalion spoke and he looked to the male "Just as you never listened to me" He stated "Or should I remark on the scars and how you got them?" He said with a smile and a tilt of his head "Minus the last what...8 years" He said with a glare.

Mizuki moved and sat up better leaning into the wall. Crossing his legs and placing his arms into his lap he sighed a little. This was all to much. First the meeting then the talk now this? What on earth did the fates have in store for him bringing Thalion back into his life. Either way Mizuki had a feeling it was going to be a long trip ahead of them.

[Rosekitten]

"I can recall how I got each one thanks. Most of them I pretty much asked for and you never had to get your hands dirty in the least." He said crossing his arms before moving to lean against the wall behind him. He acted like he had more to say but stopped himself short. He did remember most of them. Heck one of them was from keeping Mizuki out of trouble. Most he kept covered up hardly being proud to say that they were from random fights that should and could have been avoided.

After a moment of silence Thalion finally moved from the wall and towards the door again. "Wait where-" "sentry duty." Neimi started to get up to stop him but Felix stopped her. After the door shut she looked at Felix before she managed to say anything. "Leave him be, he gets like that at times. It took me three years to even get warmed up to him and thats because I'm a damned pest about it."

Before Thalion was cocky and a bit rash and hardheaded but least he was social and had everything to look forward to. After Mizuki left and he lost that job he seemed to just go down hill. Felix was in his class the last year he bothered with trying to take college thats how they met. Well and the bar of course.

This was when Felix stood stretching a bit. "Well I have to say I have never seen anyone get on his nerves quite that quickly before." He had a good idea of who this mage was. Thalion had spoken on him a few times. Every so often Thalion would be caught reading over deaths and the names just to make sure that one wasn't on the list. It wasn't like Thalion loved him actually Felix wasn't sure Thalion loved anything. He was married to his work and that was because he had to be.

Mizuki sat there for a little while before he moved and layed down. He knew sleep was not going to be easy but it was better then just sitting there and doing nothing. Laying there he sighed silently to himself as he curled up. Just his luck that he would meet up with the one person he never thought he would ever see again. Why did the fates hate him so?

The next day he was up and walking. It was a slow steady walk but one none the less. He lost count of the times he was told to sit down "Look you might as well give up" Luna said "He knows how far to push himself he will stop when needed...your just wasting time and energy" She spoke before going back to her water. "Take the advice clerk" He said slightly before grabbing his cloak and going out side.

He knew his limits and what he could do. Mizuki walked a little ways out into the snow and stood there breathing in the crisp air around them. Mizuki sighed a little. How did it come to this...and what would happen when he was healed? Would they leave and go different ways? Or would they stick together and better their chances? Mizuki didnt know but part of him wanted to stay with Thalion...though he knew they would never be how they used to be.

[Rosekitten]

Felix shook his head a little. "Sounds like someone else we might know." He was referring to Thalion. "Neimi sighed though thats when it dawned on her. "did he ever come back last night!" She slightly panicked that maybe something happened and she had never even given the slightest thought on it. No he didn't now that Felix thought about it though he didn't seem nearly as worried.

"You'll get use to him running off and vanishing. Normally one of two places, a bar or home." When he was off anyway. "Though seeing as there is no home option he probably just found somewhere to keep out of the storm. It started getting pretty bad last night." Neimi looked at Felix before shaking him finally. "Whats wrong with you! You let him walk out into a blizzard?!"

"Relax Neimi. He's fine, he's too stubborn to let a bit of weather get the better of him." "While that may be true... it is touching someone cares at least. I almost feel ill at the thought of warm fuzzy feelings." Smart ass as always. Neimi glared at him before she started to say something though he quickly stopped her putting a hand over her mouth. "Be thankful I was out there, I seem to be a good deterrence against anyone going this way without even drawing a blade. Besides.." He started before handing her a wrapped bundle. "cleaned, skinned the only thing to do is cook it. The bonus to staying in a cold region is that meats won't go bad and its easy as sin to track things."

She still shot a glare at him before handing the parcel over to Felix. "The lot of you are damned stubborn!"

[Pinkie]

Mizuki huffed as he desided it was time for a walk. Heading to the trees he smiled slightly to himself as memories came to his mind. He knew why he was thinking the way he was. It was the fact that he knew Thalion was around that he even thought of what he did. Shaking his head he walked some more beforem he stopped at a fallen tree.

Brushing the snow off of the tree he sat down and crossed his arms under his cloak. and began to hum to himself as he sat there thinking. Mizuki wondered to himself if this was the way things were meant to be...was he supposed to leave and head his own way or was he supposed to stay? Mizuki sighed to himself.

[Rosekitten]

"So anything else that we should know about?" Felix finally asked walking behind Thalion before the other stopped. "Yeah I hate the sunlight... aside from that no." Felix laughed expecting to hear that complaint for a while. "Well good news you'll get use to it some time.." "before I go blind or after?"

Neimi sighed a little before leaning against the tree near the shack. "We should get moving.. These two seem about to walk a bit. Staying here is asking for some larger group to try their luck."

Thalion paused when Neimi mentioned the other two. "They're coming with us?" Neimi tilted her head a little. "Well im not forcing them but it might be a good idea. They are not in any shape to fight and there is safety in numbers.

Felix shrugged a little agreeing with the numbers. "yes lets put two races together that naturally hate one another on top of a feud from real life."

[Pinkie]

Mizuki had returned after awhile and the day went on like nothing. Noe the sun had set and rose again bringing a new day with it. Now the smaller group had gathered the things needed and Mizuki couldnt help but to hear the conversation they seemed to be having right out side of the door. Shaking his head he walked out side "Strength in numbers maybe right..." He began "But i can tell from all its not welcomed" He said with a nod of his head.

This was when Luna joined his side as he made it past the three standing there "I would rather walk and freeze in this hell whole then be where I am not wanted" Mizuki said with a nod of his head. Making his way to the trees he stopped a moment "I myself could care less...if you want to fallow do so if not..." Mizuki stopped for a moment "Well...thats your choice" He said looking back and right at Thalion.

Mizuki began his walk again. He knew where to go. The map said to go south then east so thats what he was going to do. Going south meant warmer weather then this frozen shit and he was more then greatfull for that.

[Rosekitten]

When Mizuki spoke up as he started walking Thalion rolled his eyes a bit. It wasn't that eh wasn't wanted. He never voice the thought though. As the two started to walk off Neimi folded her arms and looked at Thalion. "what? He walked off I didn't- stop that... " She was still glaring at him and giving him a look that said this was his fault. "Tsk fine I get it already damn..."

He looked at Felix who was trying not to laugh at this. "This .. right here is why I don't keep a chick around, you asked once and I said they were a damned pain." Felix nodded but was still holding a laugh back none the less.

Either way the two groups seemed to remain together in a way. At the least staying within range of the other. Though this was when Neimi decided she was curious. "So what exactly happened? You two seem to be at a on going war with each other without drawing a weapon or saying a word."

Thalion sighed heavily rubbing his head a little, the light was bothering him again. "Young and dumb we'll sum it up to that. Apparently I didn't try hard enough is what it comes down to." She tilted her head a little before saying anything again. "Can't you two get over the past?" "Because things are that easy oh yeah sure. Would you forgive seeing someone you hadn't for eight years?"

She seemed to really think on it. "I dunno.. maybe not. Unless they were cute. I might make a exception then." She giggled a bit at the thought before Thalion shook his head a little. Well I can see how you ended up on a team with Felix now.."

Felix decided he wanted to pitch in this conversation as he spoke up. "Aw you two can't just kill and make up?" Thalion gave him a bit of a odd look before laughing at the thought. "Right, I think I'd get another ice bolt to the stomach with a attempt." Neimi thought on this a moment before smirking edging this on. "I'd pay to see it and I have gold to do so with." She said boldly sticking her tongue out. "Tempting... I rather like being in one piece."

This was when Felix had to go down a road Thalion rather would not remember. "Oh just pay for enough drinks and he'll take you up on any bet or dare you can think of."

[Pinkie]

Mizuki walked and walked not saying anything to anyone. All he did was walk and think. It was not until he heard his name being called that he even looked to his side. Looking at Luna he tilted his head "What?" He asked in a little shiver "We need to find shelter soon...the sun is setting and its only getting colder" She said with a shiver as she rubbed her arms. Mizuki nodded his head "I agree with you"

Taking out his map he looked over it before smiling "Well its a days walk still to the nearest village" He said lightly "But there should be something around here that we could use as shelter" He said "Norids and barbarians used these woods lots" He spoke before moving past her and continuing to walk.

It was moments later that they came through some trees to stop at the mouth of a cave. They were traveling along and away from mountains so it didnt shock him there was one near. Looking into it he smiles. It was large enough to walk in and would be big enough to sleep in.

"Alright I will gather wood so we could get a fire going" Mizuki said looking to Luna "Then we shall sit and have some tea what do you say?" She nodded bounding up and down to keep warm. Walking away he gathered what he could and by the time Thalions group reached them the fire was ablaze.

[Rosekitten]

Neimi was keeping more up with Mizuki and Luna then the other two. They seemed to be in their own world. This was when Neimi caught word of them planning to stop somewhere. She waited back a little so she could tell the other two.

"Seems they are stopping.. so-" Felix had something he wanted to work on or test rather as he stopped Neimi. "Well go on an catch up with them. I want to test something with Thal." She tilted her head a little before shrugging a bit. "Um ok.. whatever." She said before walking off towards the direction she had last seen Mizuki and Luna.

In the cave entrance she found Luna bouncing up and down as she paused a little before pulling a blanket from her pack and handing it to her. "Here, it'll help." She smiled trying to not be a stranger seeing as they were sorta traveling together. A group of five was a target most would leave be at the least.

"This isn't going to work, you said it was a glitch so what makes you think I can use it on will?" Felix waved the other off taking a few paces away. "Because you seem to be able to use it when you need to, you've done it twice so its not a fluke. Think about it if you master this you'll probably be the only warrior that can use magic. This game wasn't designed to allow melee classes like ours to use magic."

Thalion groaned a bit before folding his arms. "Ok fine lets go along with this crazy idea.. how do we go about this?" Felix seemed to think a moment before naming off things to focus on or try to see if they could repeat the other two times he had pulled off in battle.

[Pinkie]

Mizuki sighed to himself as he went about and did the things he needed to do before he could sleep. He rested if you wanted to call it that. A fire can only supply so much heat in a cold cave so alot of the night was spent in a shiver.

The fallowing day brought more walking and with that brought them closer to the next village. "How much longer?" He heard the whine from his right and smiled at Luna "It should be just around this bend up here" Mizuki spoke with a nod of his head "Good I can not wait for a hot room and bed" Mizuki nodded "I know the feeling its been awhile since a bath" He said in a sigh causing Luna to shake her head "You and your bathing...I know why you do but I still dont understand" She said with a sigh.

Mizuki shook his head. He bathed so much because for five years he washed in fountains and hoses left by houses. So every chance he took a bath was something he did. It was now an ocd thing more then anything. Just as he was about to say something else he heard a squeal from beside him and smiled as he watched Luna run past him towards the town that was now in view. Yes the inn was going to be a great thing.

[Rosekitten]

At the least by this time the two groups seemed to be more formed into one. Though two of the group members still seemed to avoid the other. Probably for the best seeing as every time they spoke the two seemed to end up in a small fight.

None the less by the time the group got to the town and Luna darted towards the town Thalion was fed up with Felix trying to figure out how to get that fire spell stuff to work. Though he seemed determined. "For the love of- Enough ... just one night give it a break.."

He sighed a bit rubbing his head having a huge headache at the thought of trying anything else. "Ok fine, but we will figure out how to make it work." Good cause he wasn't going to play along today anyway. Not when there was a chance at at least one drink.

"Well I know where you'll be after we settle rooms..." Thalion smirked a bit as Felix shook his head. "Your going to kill yourself someday you know that?" "Better then being run through with a sword any day." He joked, though it was probably true. Neimi sighed a bit before taking Luna's path and following her.

Though the two groups were traveling together they each seemed to pay their own way. Mizuki roomed with Luna again and the same set up as before with the other three. Neimi would have tried to room with Luna but she didn't think the dragonkin would have accepted.

[Pinkie]

Mizuki sighed as he left the bathroom. "That...was fantastic" He said to Luna as the female looked up and smiled at him "I bet...not as good as this bed though" She said with a smile as she layed back. Mizuki shook his head "Well you sleep and I am going to go down and have a drink" This caused Luna to look up at him "Do you really think thats a good idea?" She asked "We all know what happens when you get drunk" She said and Mizuki smiled "I am not getting drunk...just having a drink" He said with a smile.

Leaving the room he headed down the long hall and stairs to the bar. Getting a drink he walked over and sat at a table in the back far right. Sitting down he leaned back as he sipped his drink. Mizuki had a feeling that this drink was going to be the only one alone and he was right the moment Thalion came down those stairs with Felix in toe. Yes it seemed an interesting night was ahead of him as the two males grabbed a drink each.

Mizuki watched as Thalion was all but dragged ton the table where he was by Felix. Nodding his head as he was asked by Felix if they could join him "I dont see why not...there are two other chairs" He said with a smile "Unless the two sips of this drink hit me that hard and I am already seeing doubles" He stated with a smile

[Rosekitten]

The two were having some kind of debate as Thalion finally seemed to give up. "ok ok fine whatever." Was his words about the time Felix noticed Mizuki. Thalion had noticed the other but he was going to avoid the other seeing as thats what seemed to be working. Though Felix had other plans as he all but dragged Thalion with him.

When Mizuki answered Felix's question Thalion glared a bit at Felix. "drinking is to relax not-" "Oh stop being anti social." Felix said before making Thal sit. That was one thing he did hate, there was a strength difference due to Felix being a nord that was damn sure.

"I'm not being anti social.. I just like drinking alone, ever think about that?" Felix waved him off a bit. "Whatever you say. Anyway! So how is the mage doing?" Felix wasn't drunk by any means but when e was he was a rather happy one, a bit loud but still.

"Why did you drag me over here you could have asked that without me being here..' Thalion started as he sipped at the drink. "Though they need to serve stronger drinks for the price they cost.. " Felix shook his head a little. "Well if you didn't drink so much maybe it wouldn't take something near pure to have a affect on you. But i dragged you here so maybe Neimi would try more to get alone with that dragonkin. I feel bad that Neimi puts up with us and she seems to never interact with another of her own gender. "

"And?" Thalion said waiting for the real reason. "Ok and I thought it would be fun to have some old fashions guy time. A few drinks and just maybe smoothing out some rough edges in the process.." Maybe this was a bad idea.

[Pinkie]

Mizuki raised an eyebrow to that "I think it would take alot more then a few more drinks to smooth out some of those edges" He said with a nod of his head as he finished the drink he had. Mizuki had a feeling this was going to happen so he might as well be drunk when it happened. Waving down a watress he smiled as he orded some more drinks.

Mizuki looked at the two of them "So then" he began not knowing where to take anything "Where abouts do you think we should travel?" He asked lightly "I was thinking heading south a little then east...head towards the final boss I guess you could call him and see what the hell is going on with this game" He said taking some more of his drink.

Mizuki didnt drink often so little to say he was feeling it a little bit already. This was how the night went on. Though with the more and more drinks he added to the mix the two well more Thalion began to drink the more he began to talk until the three of them were joking and laughing and drinking. Nothing hung in the air between the males and it was a nice change.

"Oh yeah right!" Mizuki said shaking his head as he finished the last of his drink "I doubt you could beat me at anything" He said to Thalion but the male smirked commenting on hand to hand combat "Yeah yeah since when have you ever knowen me to hit some one?" He asked tilting his head "Not to mention enough to cause damage" Mizuki siad with a little hiccup.

[Rosekitten]

"East sounds good to me, get the hell out of this blasted freezing weather." "Aw.. its not so bad here." Thalion shook his head a little. "Yeah it is, I grew up in the south, our winters we could still wear shorts in... " Felix thought on that a moment. ""We wear shorts in the winter." "Cause you all froze your brain cells to death.."

Though as the night progressed the three of them seemed to get along. That was a good thing though, Felix knew when he needed to call it quits that was certain and that would be soon. There was no way he could keep up with Thalion and his drinking habits.

"Oh there is plenty I can beat you at.. a lot has happened over the years." Though the other seemed to insist that Thalion was wrong. Till he brought up hand to hand combat. "Well.. that is true. Though that ice bolt hurt enough.. so don't tell me any crap that you don't hit anyone anymore." He had a point seeing as him and Luna had started that attack.

This was when Felix sighed heavily and stood up. "Ok.. I'm calling it a night I need to be able to make it to my room and walk tomorrow.. don't let him get too carried away eh?" He waved towards the two before he started to walk off leaving the two of them. "One day Felix you need to learn to keep up." Thalion laughed a little at the thought.

Though this was when he noticed that they needed new drinks. He sighed standing like it was nothing. "We'll continue this debate in a moment." Sure he was feeling the effects by now, he stopped counting a while back.

At the bar counter he was ordering more as he noticed a young girl walk over and plop down in a chair next to Mizuki almost leaning against the male. "Hey cutie... " She started flashing a smile. She seemed to be a demon race from the looks of her ears and tail. This made Thalion decide to wait and see where this was going to go leaning against the counter a bit. He hadn't quite ordered the drinks just yet so there was no hurry.

"You keep some interesting company, why is that? A catch like you lowering himself to the likes of that barbarian and a mere dark elf." It was unsure if this was a player or a npc but she seemed intent on her role here. "How about we go somewhere hrm? I can show you a good time-" This was when Thalion decided that things were going to get get out of hand sooner or later.

Knowing Mizuki he would be stupid enough to say yes with his current state. "Alright I think thats enough out of you." The demon girl glared at Thalion daring him to stop her though she quickly backed down. "And you.. letting her hang all over you, I think its time for you to get to bed before Luna has my hide for letting something happen to you."
