*Cifero frowns slightly and looks off into the middle distance.*
"They weren't... but they were."

Grace's internal machinery stopped before consuming the coins she had just swallowed. Dragon-like metallic creature stopped suddenly and stood still like a statue, deep in thought.

A deafening thump of Grace obliterating the floor when falling down woke up everyone and the remaining, yet uneaten coins scattered around.

//Sorry for sci-fi stuff, but I think this is the last internal monologue of Grace and it was... essential to long-term storytelling//

[Roxy Wolf]

// is it very important that I read that??? //

[Sne]

// Only if you want to know what's going inside her head, obviously //

[Hunter_]

*Hears the thump in the distance*
"....What the hell do you have to do to get some sleep?"
*Hunter gets up again and opens his door*
"...What the...is that Grace?"
*He walks closer and turns over Grace's body*
"Hmm....Hey, Lumi!, get over here, your suit isnt working as it should im guessing!"
*Hunter looks around and see's his coins*
"How very intresting it is to see such a machiene fail at such a point."

[JohnnyP789]

Savel cocked his head and smiled slightly,That meant nothing to me, what happened?" He turned around as he noticed that Cifero was staring off into the distance,"What? Is something there?" He used his thumb to unsheath his sword slightly, so that it would be easier to draw if needed.

[Cifero Windtail]

*Cifero shakes his head rapidly, coming out of his odd trance and looking back over to Savel.*
"No, just.... "
*He sighs*
"C'mon, we should go join up with the others."
*He starts to walk away, motioning for Savel to follow him.*

[Sne]

Lumi ran towards Grace. It seemed that she just toppled on a side without much reason. There weren't any exterior damage--the only thing that was broken was the floor with a long and pretty deep dent besides Grace, now lying on her back.
Lumi picked up one of the coins with bewilderment and turned to Hunter, pushing him against a wooden support beam with amount of force he couldn't expect from someone that small, almost causing it to break.
"What did you do? I know it's yours! I saw those things on you earlier!" she shouted in anger, then threw the coin away, embedding it into the wall.

[Roxy Wolf]

//I stretch my arm towards Lumi, using telepathic force to push her slowly away from Hunter// take it easy! he didn't know this would happen

[Hunter_]

*Hunter quickly grabs Lumi at her shoulders pushing her with a heavy force into the ground*
"..I. Didnt. DO. ANYTHING!"
*He let out a puff and then let her go*
"She ASKED for the coins, and why would i destroy it? Its an valuble ally.
Explain why i should. Dont let grief grab a hold of you, its  waste.
Now get prepped, nights almost over, and were leaving at dawn."
*Hunter then walked infront of Lumi and looked into her eyes and said*
"You wont master me. You CANT, keep that in mind the next time you assault me."
*He then walked to the armory*

[JohnnyP789]

Savel slowly took a step twords him but stopped. He turned his head to look behind him,"Is it just me... Does it feel like someone's watching us..." he shook his head and he followed Cifero cautiously, his hand on the hilt of his sword as he walked, unsure of what he was going to walk into. "How many people are there?"

[Cifero Windtail]

"Hmm... well let's see..."
*Cifero lists his allies in his head*
"Um... about eleven, give or take.... although two are in another dimension right now... don't ask... and also, the scars are from..."
*He bites his lip*
"Well... from a friend after something took him over."

[Sne]

Combined forces of Lorkin dragging and Hunter pushing overwhelmed Lumi and she had to back off and catch some kind of a metal candelabrum if she didn't want to fall down. She looked at Hunter confused, trying to calm down and understand what a "coin" is. Anger pulsed through her veins, rage building up. Not even noticing, she crushed the candelabrum, making it bend awkwardly and prepared to pounce at Hunter. Suddenly shifting lights made her eye catch a glimpse of one of the round pieces of metal in a weirdest of places.
She calmed down, curious more than anything else. She looked into Grace's mouth, then put her hand inside and picked it out and saw a next glimpse, deeper. She picked one coin after another, throwing them away. The moment she dislodged a fourth or fifth, Grace creaked, which made Lumi get her hand out at an awesome speed.
"What happened?"
"Greetings captain Lumi--I need a time update," Grace said with her typical deep, vibrating voice and looked out of the nearest window in the sky. "Without any higher ranking officers in a defined volume of space you are automatically promoted. Congratulations, admiral Lumi Kreuz."
"Are you trying to dodge the ques--" Lumi asked and broke off as she noticed another coin emerging from Grace's mouth.
"I have found it--a non-willforce-interacting material," Grace said, holding the coin up. "Gold. This coin contains trace amounts of gold and yet managed to disable some of my internal systems. We must disregard non-essential goals and acquire currency of this particular kind."
Lumi got filled with joy and looked at Lorkin, like awaiting an opinion on the matter.

[Roxy Wolf]

*I rises my eyebrows* I'll pretend I understand what that means

[Hunter_]

*Hunter walked out of the armory in a light, but strong brown leather armor*
"Lumi, Lorking, follow me!"
*Hunter stood behind the Altar and put his paws on it*
"Now look, and look closly"
*His green pathces of fur turned brigh as energy could be seen flowing into the Altar and an battalion of Demons appeared*
*Hunter spoke up*
"You will be divided into three groups, one under the command of me, one under the command of Lumi and one under the command of Grace and Lorkin!
You ALL know what i will do if you dissobey me, or THEM!
*Hunter turned around to the others*
"As you have heared we will be dividing into three groups, each taking an area around this temple, I will expend towards our nemesis, Lumi towards an village and Grace and Lorkin will take a village with a dock.
All of these are essentials, if you have questions, ask them now."
