Vulpyre Tales

Ritsuo shook his head, "Geez, what a sissy, I didn't punch you that hard."

Syaoran was still in pain and the blood puddle wasn't getting any smaller. "I feel faint. Seriously, does anyone have a roll of bandages, I need to stop this bleeding before I..." He passed out again.

[Oedipus Rex]

Incendium stepped out of the rubble that used to be a bakery, and walked towards the party. When he arrived he saw the young Faux lying on the ground, bleeding. "Somebody messed you up badly, eh?" He said, kneeling down to him. "Let me see what I can do."
The mage placed his palms on the chest of the boy and released icy air, numbing the pain and thickening the blood. He then took the faux's shirt off and tore it into thick strips before blasting them each with cold air, sterilizing them, and wrapping them tightly around his body.
"You'll be alright, boy. 'Tis but a flesh wound"

"Thanks, It's a little confusing though, Skylar usually comes with her twin, I wonder she didn't this time?" Syaoran said as he pondered for a bit, "Oh well, I need to get to Hectomatru." He stood up and recovered the ruby talisman clasping his cloak together and attached it to his neck as a necklace of sorts, they noticed two more on his wrists. He began to walk off with Ritsuo. "You know, I think it would probably be a good idea to stick with us for a while, all of you. The Dark Skulls now see you as threats and will quite likely try to take you all out, so strength in numbers right? Besides, something's fishy and I don't know what." Syaoran said, turning back towards the group. "They're probably planning something elsewhere." Ritsuo added.

[Oedipus Rex]

"I'm in" Incendium said, walking over to you. "Somebody has to keep you out of trouble"

[fireheart126]

"Cool, thanks. Anyone else?" Syaoran asked.

[Cef]

Cef laid there as the runes started to sink back into the dagger while the dimension fades. Again he let someone get away. "You're good at nothing but talking to yourself aren't you?" he said and the flesh he stole from the beast disintegrated, making him look like a zombie again. "Well that's that. I'll see what syaoran has to say about this

[fireheart126]

Syaoran noticed Cef had caught up to him as well, "Don't worry about it. They didn't cause any lasting damage, at least nothing that can't be fixed by the Construction Magic Guild and they get away from my friends and I all the time."

[AJ Fawxe]

Alex strolled up listening to the conversation to get caught up on the end of the conflict, noticing that the dimension spells were fading. Hearing Syaoran comment on their adversaries frequent escapes Alex scoffed at the remark, "Them constantly slipping out of your grasp isn't something I'd mention when I'm trying to be reassuring. I suppose I should come along as the voice of reason in this cacophony of madness. Seeing as everyone wants to make games out of screwing with reality and whatnot. I do need to pick up a few things, though."

[fireheart126]

"The point is, nobody died, and that's what the important part is, and more than likely they'll come back again, probably with more reinforcements next time. The reason they're able to get away, is the fact that after our fights with them we're too exhausted to do much else. We try to conserve our energies only to eventually be forced to use our best magics, then we're too tired to do anything else. I've even passed out from overuse of magic at once. It's not fun, trust me on that. Anyways, what do you need to pick up?" Syaoran explained. Ritsuo was still miffed about letting those two get away again.

[AJ Fawxe]

Alex looked to Syaoran and smiled ruefully, "Some things I've picked up in my travels. Many useful, others entertaining. All interesting however, I wouldn't own something that wasn't interesting." Alex cracked his fingers and stretched, "So where shall I meet you once I've gotten my things?"

[Oedipus Rex]

Incendium nods in agreements. "I've got some things that might be useful for us as well at my home, some potions and books, as well as my traveling cloak are among them"

[fireheart126]

Syaoran nodded, "Alright, everyone who's coming, meet me at the north gate of the city."

[AJ Fawxe]

Alex nods softly and walks off to the slums where he found the normal run down hovel he used and dived into his bolthole and grabbed the stuff that was stashed along the way and came out in some underbrush outside the city. Seeing no one around and no sensory magic spying on him he re-covered the exit and enchanted it to subtly guide animals and people away from it. "There we are. Long time no see old friend," he spoke casually to the hole and then walked off towards the north gate, leaning leisurely in the large gateway at the north end of town, being the first to arrive no one would question why he came from the outside. The only truly noticeable difference in his appearance was that he had a cloak colored in earthy colors.

[Cef]

"Well. Guess that's my cue to look for..." cef was.about to finish his sentence before getting interrupted by the cops. "HEY YOU!!! STOP RIGHT THERE!! YOU.ARE UNDER ARREST FOR STEALING STORE MERCHANDISES!!!"

"You can't steal something that's free popos!! Besides, I have a coupon to show you that the ice cream is mine" A purple wolf being pursuited yells back with a tub of ice cream in her hands.

"Here we go again" Cef sighed as a shockwave of sound sent to cops flying backwards. Noticing Cef, the purple wolf waved at him and gestured to tell him to go to the nearby cafe.

*minutes later*

"Hey Cef! You're late! Ice cream is melting" Filarie said while digging into the tub of ice cream. "Look something happened while you were away." Cef said while looking at Fil. "Uhuh." Fil said while still eating her ice cream. "We might have to leave town for awhile" Cef finished and Fil stopped. "What for? The cops are friendly. They have plenty of food. They have ice cream and. Well. It's just a nice place." Fil finished and Cef sighed, thinking that she wouldn't stop, he got up and dragged her by the hand. "Hey where are we going? Cef I haven't finish my ice cream. Cef!!! I haven't finish my ice cream. Do you know how hard I worked for that? Cef!" Fil nagged while Cef ignored her and carried her to the north gate.

[fireheart126]

Syaoran reached the north gate to see Alex there, "Huh, wonder how you got here so fast?" Before Alex could answer, Syaoran noticed Cef dragging a purple Luporo, complaining the whole way there. Syaoran just sort of stared... "Who's she?" He asked.
