"Let's go to the fort then," Lumi said.

"Long-term analysis concludes that Hazelwood would be the most secure. Kim would have to be eventually left in the fort or in Tinsbury stronghold and demon soldiers could be insufficient against high-tier commoneer rebels who can target Kim for strategic reasons. However when kept in the Hazelwood prison or another similarly secure location Kim will be under direct observation and therefore protected," Grace said.

"You want to imprison him?!"

"Hazelwood stronghold should be in appropriate construction phase already."

"Well, it does make sense. Move out!"

Shashoh, Cifero and Dala walked for a while in the almost pitch black tunnel unitl they arrived in a brightly lit chamber full of swords, halberds, bows and armor, more than Hazelwood ever posessed.

"This is for everyone else," Shashoh said, gesturing disregardingly. "Come, I'll give you what I gave Dala. I guarantee satisfaction," he said to Cifero, opened another secret doorway and digged something out. "Dala, care to demonstrate?"

Dalavesta took the weapon and aimed at a dummy target.

"They call it a 'crossbow'. Very recent invention. Ingenius. There are no proper materials and tools to manufacture them on larger scale, so I only have a couple I made myself. Absolutely quiet when loaded, very low profile."

Dala loaded a greenish steel bolt into the crossbow, stood in a show-off pose and smiled.

"It fires small, but heavy arrows of sorts. Mine are made of dragonsteel, a rarity as it needs dragon scales and for high quality dragon fire as well. Incredibly dense and hard. Also very spectacular. This bolt is very old, too dangerous to be stored any longer. It first pierces through even the best armor and then... see for yourself."

Dala pulled a lever on the device several times and aimed at the dummy again.

Firing! she shouted and then pressed the trigger. The bolt hit the dummy and pierced right through it, driving into the wall and only then exploding into a spectacle of yellow-hot steel needles, causing the dummy look like a flaming hedgehog. Shashoh then handed the crossbow and a bunch of finely ornated dragonsteel bolts to Cifero.

"It might be the only weapon even remotely capable of killing a dragon in a single shot. You have only three bolts. Use them wisely."

[Cifero Windtail]

*Cifero sheathes Selven, which he had been using as a flashlight, and acceps the weapon.*
"Thank you, sir."
*He puts the bolts in a safe pouch in his satchel, slings the crossbow over his shoulder, and brings out Shadis' swords.*
"Um... do you have anything that could help be keep these in a good condition?"

[Hunter_]

*Hunter nods at Grace*
"That will be the most secure place in Hazelwood right now.
Now, let us travel to the place, and root out any trouble makers.
Should be fun and good for training."
*Hunter starts his walk towards Hazelwood*

[Sne]

"These swords... they're not of this world. Not dragon either," Shashoh said and smelled the blade. "Couldn't be... blood obsidian." He took a deep breath and recited.

"One seeking to raise a hellion
Needs not to look very far
Conquer heart of a demon
Give the darkness to devour

Forged of oddly gleaming ashes
Black like night in bloom
From where earth's cruor gushes
Bright like midday sun

Smith in shining wolves' moon
Feed it burning leeches' feast
Train in mortal battle soon
And you have your deadly beast."

He glanced at Cifero's confused face. "You carry weapons like this and you never heard that? Legend says that one must feed the weapon with boiling blood of one's enemies." He smiled widely at his guests' horrified expressions. "However, I found that bathes in hot vegetable oil with some iron nails in it work just as well. Let us deep fry some swords while Dala keeps watch for the dragon."

"Yes, sir!" Dala saluted and walked out immediately.

The group approached Hazelwood. Grace observed her surroundings all the time. She saw a silhouette hiding behind a chimney, who apparently spotted her too and moved away.

"We are being watched."

"What?" Lumi said.

"It is advised for you to get inside."

"Nonsense, we never hurt anyone, did we?... You were following my commands, weren't you?"

"All commands were executed successfully by all available definitions."

"Then we have nothing to worry about."

#

Dala sprinted towards one of the hidden passages to get to Shashoh as fast as possible, bumping into a black wolf dressed in black clothes. Confused to see a newcomer, she stopped for a second, then got a grip on herself and rushed again. She finally opened the way and ran up to Shashoh. "They're coming," she panted out. "They're here!"

[Kaya]

Cassandra smiles as they enter Hazelwood, and brushes off Grace's warning. "Let them watch. better them witness us crushing the restince so they see what will happen if they oppose us."
 
(i hope thats right. )

[Hunter_]

*Hunter smiled at Cassandra*
"Now, lets root out the houses first, and drag anyone who's resisting to the town's square.
Im sure out friends couldnt keep watching as we slaughter them, one by one, soul by soul."
*Hunter got a odd thirst for blood and smiled deeply while walking into the Hazelwood*

[Kaya]

shadows seem to be thrashing and crawling out of her own. her aura changes from one of a deep purple to a solid black . Cassandra laughs her runes now are glowing a deep black casting an eerie light around herself. "shall i let thiese loose to reak havoc? or are we doing this manually?" She smiles darkly.

[Hunter_]

*Hunter laughs darkly and says*
"Let them loose, and let mayhem rule in this place!
Then they should know they shouldnt rebel."

[Kaya]

Cassandra growls something in a deep guteral tone and it seems like thousadns of shadows start pouring out of her own and dart across the gound. the air gets a supressive feel as they run loose. within a few seconds crashing is heard within houses, screams and yells of terror then men and boys are being dragged out into the streets. within those are only a few women, burly women. some of the people that are being draged out have fresh wounds, and old battle scars. "mmm this is rather nice.." she chuckles to herself

[Hunter_]

*Hunter looked at Cassandra*
"I knew you had darkness within you, and i even think youre enjoying it,
am i right?"
*Hunter walked up to the town square*
 
//Alright, wait for others //

[Sne]

Shashoh dragged Cifero to the observation point.
"Cifero, you were right, I never saw a dragon like this. If... if it's something beyond a dragon, if something bad happens... take care of Dala. And take this," Shashoh said, putting a small but heavy golden key in Cifero's paw. "This is to my ship."

#

"This is insanity!" Lumi yelled in reply to her comrades' words. "Maldo andwae! Ige maldo andwae!" She screamed in shock as she saw what they start doing.

"It is highly recommended for you to get inside."

#

"Casting spells, are you, witch?" Dala muttered under her nose, aiming the crossbow from a window with a clear sight on the street. "Come on Shashoh, give the signal."

[JohnnyP789]

Atticus smiled slightly, his sharp teeth gleaming in the darkness, his yellow lowing eyes watched as she ran off. He stopped walking and followed her, in a deep voice, he said, just as she reached the door,"You know... It isn't nice to slam into someone and run off without apologizing." he stood in the doorway of the area she entered and heard about a rebelion, and then he felt kindof strange, like the air was condencing. He stepped back into the darkness, hoping that no one would see him, and he closed his eyes and sighed,"Another war.... And i'm gonna have to decide who is right and who is wrong and kick the crap out of whoever is wrong..."

He looked at the girl who bumped into him and he smiled slightly,"all she need to do is walk back here..." and he got his wish. She saluted and walked past him. He followed he and smiled, wrapping his arm around her neck and her arm behind her back, gently and whispered into her ear,"so.... Military girl huh? Hehe.... I love a girl in uniform..."

[Hunter_]

*He turned to Lumi saying*
 "What's wrong? Are you afraid?
There's nothing weird going on, maybe new for you, that is."

[Sne]

Dalavesta noticed the black wolf is behind her. "What are you doing? Take your bow and get to position, soldier!" She then realized he wasn't in the same team. She quickly turned around and after just a slight moment of hesitation squeezed the uneager trigger of her crossbow.
 

[Roxy Wolf]

*I poke my head out from behind Casandra, to see what's happening, then stretching he's hand forth, getting the crossbow bolt in he's arm, sent right through min and out the other, putting it to the ground, but strangely, without a scratch*
*I run across the corner, when a shadow grabs me, I react quickly and touch the shadow with a burning spell, setting the shadow on fire as I disappear up at the roof* what the ??

/speed up a little, we say everyone have joined the circle... and the group is now complete/


*with the circle complete, I take my kunai and cut my  right palm, letting my blood make a rope, going across everyone, tying their hands together, and as the blood rope reach my left hand and tie it to Savel's hand, we disappear*
