Phoenix smirked at him and shook her head, You're not the only one on the endangered species list. But I'm in this for the voyage. Nothing more. "So you plan on hiding yourself still even though we are not out at sea. If I were you I would tell the Captain what you were doing." Phoenix glanced at him and touched her brow then took off to the air. "Later," she said and sored up to the very tip of the highest mast and perched herself there, folding her wings in tight so the wind did not pull her off.

Netormat shook his head and walked over to edge of the boat and watched the waves roll about lazily you didn't tell her the whole truth that you're a freak a monster a jeering voice said inside of his head.Netormat stood there as the voice continued to throw insults at him he focused his hands and clenched his mouth shut but still the voice whispered into is mind.Snarling he closed his eyes and stood there his body giving off blue smoke,after a few seconds of immobility he threw himself off the boat keeping hold of the boat with one thread.

"Holy crap !" shouted Keleth as the newest arrival, now revealing himself to be some kind of humanoid-lizard-hybrid, just threw himself off of the boat. "Um, Alùn, your mercs seem to have already had enough ..." stated the assassin ironically, pointing towards the now empty spot where the lizard was, as blue smoke emanated around it.

Alùn and several other sailors ran to the side-railing and peered over the edge of the ship. They tried to see if they could spot the mercenary in the water. "Hey!" called one of the sailors, "Hey, uh lizard-fella'? You okay?"

"This," muttered Alùn, "is not the best way to start a voyage."

Phoenix saw the man jump and without a second thought she dove off from her perch her wings folded in as she dove for him. Just as his grip gave out she caught his wrist and snapped her wings open. Cursing under her breath steam erupted every time water hit her flesh. "Damn boy you weigh a ton," she growled and beat her wings until she finally was high enough to have him over the ship. Once he was over Phoenix dropped him and landed falling to one knee, her wings shaking from the effort of carrying him and steam still rising from where water hit her. "What the hell was that all about?" she growled at him as her chest rose and fell quickly.

As Argo watched this event he could not help but wonder what will be of this specific group of people. How will they work with each other, how will they complement one another. This thoughts were weighing heavily on him for this adventure was of great importance to him, as for the others he is not so sure. After some observing he stud and walked to the newest member of our party. You seem to be unwell, maybe you should rest. I doubt you came all this way just sop you could jump in to the sea. And when you are rested maybe we can all get together and know a little bit about one another? He sad this last part louder so everyone could hear his words, and after saying he looked at he captain for he assumed that captain to would like to know what are the motives for all this adventures.

Nweris was awoken from her musings when a cry was called out on deck. It seemed the cloaked mercenary had thrown himself overboard. She walked over as Phoneix thrust him back on board, panting from the exertion. It was then she noticed the being to be a lizardman of sorts. Jaks hid further behind her leg at the sight of him. Shaking her head, she looked at them all. At least Phoneix seemed willing to risk herself for one of her companions without a second thought. That type of dedication to the job was impressive to say the least. She walked to the Avian woman and knelt beside her. "Are you alright? I have an herb with me that makes a wonderfully relaxing tea. It would also do well to calm the nerves and help ease you from your exertion."

Slowly Asphir opened her eyes to see the sun hovering above the masts of Good Intent. For a moment she had forgotten where she was, but after a few moments the thoughts came flooding back to her. The map, the ship, and her crew mates, who were mercenaries. At some points she could barely believe that they were all going to have to work together to reach the goal- the reason Alùn put up the job bill- in some kind of joined effort. From what she had seen, it would be quite a big feat for everyone on board the ship to get along, yet alone go on some quest together.

She was pulled away from her thoughts by a shout, which she figured was from the assassin that she was arguing earlier. For a second she dismissed it, as she thought he might have just misplaced a weapon of some sort. That was, until she heard the scurrying of quite a few sailors towards that position. Asphir reluctantly pulled herself up from where she was sitting and made her way to see what all the commotion was about. She saw the man that was playing the flute earlier throw himself overboard voluntarily, to be swept upon by Phoenix and pulled back on board, and also noticed that this mysterious man was actually a lizard.

From where the lizard landed back on board, she could hear Argo speaking about all of the mercenaries getting to know each other more. She couldn't help herself but to step up next to Argo, and say with a smile on her face, "I think that's a great idea. We so should!" before walking a few steps away from the whole dramatic scene and sitting down, cross-legged, to watch the events that would certainly unfold. Adding more drama to an already dramatic scene was fun for her, as she knew a lot of the mercenaries would be less than keen to share details about their past.

I'd be interested to learn more about that assassin, she thought.

"Yeah, let's all sit down together ... and after a long pause Keleth added: and start a group therapy session, talking about our problems and congratulating each other for surmounting a simple, everyday-life one ! By the gods !" What a bunch of losers. Giving up his earlier sarcastic tone, the assassin added: "You're supposed to be a band of mercenaries, not some drug addicts looking for consolation ! Talk if you want, but it won't get us anywhere closer to the goal, that's for sure ..." he shouted. Shit, anger flaring up again, not good. Keep your calm Tarn, otherwise heads will roll ...

After muttering a few curses, Keleth stormed off to interior of the ship, going deeper into its belly, and he finally reached the storage compartment. No one was around; not a soul, not a sound, barely a light. To make up for this, Keleth placed his hand over the ruby pendant, Sharilyun it was called, and let the blood-red light calm him, soothe him. After staying many minutes in a deep silence, were he simply let the anger exude out of his body, he started his interior monologue again: And what if they just want to be friendly, I can't hate for that, can I ? I'm used to working solo, or with other guys like me, not a bunch of goody-two-shoes girls and boys. Then again, they each tried to be nice, I'm the one that's rejecting help the whole time, and keeping friendship on a strictly professional scale ...

He sighed heavily, the full weight of his thoughts sinking into him: he was being an absolute fucker, pissing everybody off, demanding respect where none was due so far, and not helping anything or anyone. This isn't getting anyone anywhere, not their play-talk, my actions are ... And the worst thing is, I'm too damn proud to admit it, and too damn haughty to demand forgiveness. "Keleth Tarn never has to demand forgiveness" ... Damn this interior reflection, before I know it, I'll be sinking into depression, and what do you know, I'll commit suicide in the ship's hull, and nobody will feel sorry, no one will feel a loss. That is the way of the assassin, out of touch, or only with himself, to consume himself in his own pride, and fall, for overconfidence kills, and I have reached a climax of overconfidence. Argh, change, that fickle thing; do too much of it and you can never come back to your original stage, for better or for worse. But I guess I'll just have to, or else I'm a gonner, either by their hands or by the hands of fate, as she sweeps me up and takes me away; damn this all. Luckily, my dagger isn't feeling too friendly right now, so gutting myself will have to wait for another day ...

He just sat there, against the hull, bathed in blood-red light, as the thoughts swirled around his head, a myriad of feelings the assassin had tried to shut up all his life, but that were now erupting and flooding over him. For the first time in his life, Keleth Tarn, the great assassin, felt weak and out of control.

Hearing sarcastic remarks from almost all on this ship a vein popped out on Argos forehead. He is calm, but he is only mortal. And even gods have their outbursts of rage. If there is to be any hope of all of them living through this adventure cooperation will have to be achieved. At the very least on some basic level. Having endured enough patriotism from almost all the party he sad: ENOUGH!!! His voice completely distorted, floating some half of meter in the air, his eyes glowing in bright while light and strong winds swirling all around him, he has awaken his dormant air element blood for the first time in a long while. You want to die on account your foolish pride is fine by me, but unlike you I want to live. And the only way to do that is to know what exactly each and every one of us is able to do if the tough situation presented it self. I ma not asking for your histories, family trees or any specific of your jobs up until now, my gods have you ever worked with a group? It is as different from working solo as are heaven and earth. So we WILL share our skills with one another i order to improve our chances of survival, for where we are going we will need it!!!

The mime sat quietly on the mast, watching the whole commotion. Her shifted from one person to the next. With a heavy sigh she looked out to sea again. All she could her was the wind and the sea roaring. Her ears were not pleased by these sounds, especially with the shouts from below.

Wow, so that elf does has a nasty side to him. But he's not someone to mess with when angered.

She made a small motion in the air that produced a small symphony of chimes. Rierjah rocked back and forth listening to the song.

Oh dear little elf, ha, I would love to tell all my moves and secrets, but that only means you will most likely have a shorter life span. Besides I don't think you want to know what this deck holds, only dreams and nightmares.

She thought about her skills for a while and realized something.

Eh! I forgot a few items back at the tavern that I suppose to pick up. Better not go without them otherwise I'll be screwed in battle.

She jumped down from the mast, and walked up to the captian. With a short bow.

Captian Alun, I fell it's best for the crew and me, if I go and meditate for before we reach land. This way my senses will be at their peak. So I request no one come bother me while I am below deck.

She did an sharp turned and walked with grace from everyone and below deck. Rierjah then quickly dashed down the hallway, but stopped aburptly. She saw the assasian standing there with pendent glowing. She knew what he was doing, composing himself. She had done this many times before she went on stage for her performance. A soft smile grew under her mask. She walked up to him without a sound. Bent down and looked up at him.

I have done that many a times myself. It's good to see you try and control yourself. But it's too bad that you cannot control yourself in certain times. Otherwise I would see no problem taking you where I'm going. You might even enjoy. Sadly enough with your temper, you would attract to much attention for my liking. Maybe when you are more sure of yourself, I'll take you along.

She skipped over to the darkest corner of that room, pulled out a scroll, and touched it. A small hole appeared on the wall, the mime waved good bye to the assasian and jumped in. Nothing had changed except, now she was in the shadow realm. It was dark and gloomy place. It held all the fears of one's mind, but they had come to life. This was no place for for for people weak in strength or mind. She could see Keleth standng there surprised at what she had done. She was no where to be found. She placed a small orb in the corner of deck making sure no light would ever hit, if it did she would not be able to find her way back to the ship.

Oh, better not travel with white attire on, bring to much attention on me.

She let out a small giggle and pulled on her hood that streached down to her feet and changed into a dark royal blue. Rierjah lifted her hood to reveal, not her face, but instead a long long elegent woman's face. She appeared to be in her late twenties, with brilliant green eyes, silky black hair, and mauve colored libs. Rierjah cunningly smiled and walked her away up to the deck, she did not want to stay in this place for long, there were many things here that could send her to the other side in one foul swoop. This however was not like walking in the normal realm. With one step a person would walk to the nearest shadow in their direction. One's depth perception was thrown off, so that you would have to rely on the other senses. Rierjah walked on aboard and then out to sea stepping in the shadows toward the port.

Let's hope this old man will be reasonable with me and swift. I don't want to be gone long, the others might reach land soon.

Phoenix looked up at the girl that offered her help and held up a hand and gave a kind smile. "No, I'm good. Just his weight caught me off guard is all." Taking in a deep breath Phoenix got to her feet and glanced around. This is going to go to hell quicker then my temper, she thought and rolled her shoulders and stretched out her wings quickly before she folded them again.
When the mage yelled out Phoenix let her head rest forward and closed her eyes to listen. Once he was finished she smiled and walked over to him and place a very warm hand on his shoulder and smiled, "you're right. Now all of us need to grow up and let go of our pride." Letting her hand fall she glanced around. "You all know it as well as I do! Come on! Let's do this and get it over with!"

After hearing such words Argo calm himself almost instantly. Stopping the wind, his eyes glow and landing on the deck he looked at Phoenix and sad: I am most pleased that you understand my intentions Phoenix. I only wish to survive this voyage and see my ancestors, that is all. And I will be the first one to say what skills I posses, for I doubt that anyone else would want to begin. But for that I think it is best for all the protagonist of this adventure. Argo bowed to Phoenix and as he was passing bu he he sad quietly thank you. Agor looked at the deck of the ship, he was looking for captain. When he saw the captain he approached and sad captain Alun I would like you to organise a gathering so we can gain some knowledge of one another. I think you understand why I insist on this.

"True words." stated Keleth from the doorway accessing the deck. He was replying to Phoenix. Tarn had left shortly after the mime had appeared. For a moment there, he was surprised at what she had done, but he had worked with dark magic users before, their ways were not unknown to him. He'd just smiled when she waved goodbye and disappeared through her portal, and here he was now.

"The mime set off through a portal, she wants to fetch something I think without hampering the voyage. She'll probably be back soon. As for Phoenix's words, she's right: we've been fools, me not least of them. Let's just, you know, forget about it. We've got a solid contract with Alùn, let's not squabble like children, let's just get the job done, and done well ..." As he finished his little speech, he leaned against the edge of the doorway, awaiting their approval, gazing into each of their eyes, one by one.

Nweris nodded to Phoneix as she righted herself. Standing by the rail, she listened to the yelling of the elf, disappearence of the mime, and return of the assassin. She simply closed her eyes and nodded in silent agreement to their need of a gathering. The warrior did not enjoy divulging information about herself, but this assignment and the fact that she was working with others would make such a thing necessary. Besides, as the elf had said, they only needed to know of one another's abilities. She would be giving up her advantage, but it was something she could live with. The woman turned to Alun, awaiting for him to announce the meeting that was sure to follow.

With a nod, Alùn agreed. "I'll at least be wanting to know what sort of skills we have available on this ship. Every mercenary: meet back on the top deck one hour before the sun sets. We will be having dinner then."

With that, the captain turned and returned to his cabin.

Phoenix nodded and looked to the assassin and walked over to him with her arms at her sides. She looked him up and down and nodded. "I'm not going to apologize for the burn I have you, but I did no mean to insult you earlier today." Pausing for a second Phoenix looked at him again and held out her hand, "Fresh start? I'm Phoenix." Her red eyes stared into his, waiting to see his reaction to her approaching him. She knew that she had pissed him off when he underestimated her. But he had it coming and needed to be put into his place.

Well then when all of us are here on this ship and gathered we shall begin. Seems the mime is not here so we can wait until she returns. so until then my friends I will practice my martial art, if anyone is willing to spar with me feel free to do so. He stepped on a part of the bout that was not crowded and looked to see if anyone is willing to do a training session with him.
