(OOC: Screw it. Lumeas is taking too long. Let's go to war!)

Gabriel shook his head, and flew out of the church door. He sensed something inside the church, but he had no time for it. There was a battle to the west, and it required his attention. Besides, the church was home to one of the best Schools for Paladins in Terra. If anything went down, an invader would end up with several dozen Paladins to mess with. Although they weren't as powerful as Gabriel, and they certainly didn't have Soul Summon partners, they weren't warriors to think little of.

Gabriel approached the group.

"Let's move out. Those that are without a means of travel, take flight on Pheonix. Let's move."

Gabriel removed his shield from his back and unsheathed his sword, it's black blade shining in the morning sun.

"To battle!"

With that, Gabriel's four wings flapped greatly, and he pushed up into the air, soaring towards the western horizon.

"Well, there he is. Lets go!" Novaras said with enthusiasm.

When Kelvin and Josh got on Phoenix's back, they could feel the excessive warmth of his fires. Phoenix flapped its wings twice, then took off, speeding alongside but making sure not to pass Gabriel. It wasn't too long till they could see the lands and castle wrecked by the battle. Looks like we've found some other Gaians to team up with. Shall I burn the other passengers now?

They're armed. We don't want them taking you down while they roast. Lets land, then you can use a well-timed Rebirth Flame for the Gaians while I take care of that paladin.

Sounds good. We can catch them off guard. Wait for me to use my Rebirth Flame before you send a thunderbolt his way, I'd like to see the confusion on their faces when they see the Terran army decimated while the Gaian army is restored.

Novaras called out to Gabriel, "Where should we land?"

OOC: Bosolai, I have to remind you to keep the power of the Rebirth Flame within limits. I suggest that the effect be limited to no more than ten men per cast? And do note that each time Pheonix casts the spell, it'll drain off his own energies greatly, making him vulnerable to attack. Also note that depending on the scope of spell, the revived characters will suffer a rebirth weakness(if the spell is cast on only a one or two characters, then they do not suffer the weakness side-effect).

Josh wasnt surprised by the heat on the bird, it was on fire, so it was going to heat up, but he was happy they were traveling now with the rush of air cooling them.

We are here

Josh looked down on the war below them and was instantly in pain, his eye overwhelming with so much pain that it glowed blood red and wasnt easily unnoticed by most people. His eye normally did this when seeing the fiends that were invading thier world, but this wasnt the pain he had grown used to, with so many everywhere the pain was almost unbearable. His hands glowed green and were ready to spew poison from above onto the creatures below.

"Whats are plan of action", he said to Gabriel.

After Darik caught his breath, he stood.

"Probably wise to leave, Little Brother."

Again, Laccolith was not happy.

"The wise man avoids trouble...and those two are radiating it. It's time to go."

Darik stood, and began to walk away...only to come face to face with another man, with a...something that looked like a dog made out of energy, at his side.

Darik felt Laccolith tense.

No! Stay hidden, Little Brother. Don't come out unless I need you.

Darik sallowed, and looked at the man. "Greetings, stranger. You may want to avoid the clearing ahead...some interesting characters in there.

((OOC: There you go, Newb. Someone saw you.))

((yay!))
"which interesting characters are they, and for which side do they fight?"
This man smells of summoning, watch out

Bahamut. Seeing that summon reminded Kelvin of something. Exactly what, he didn't know. All he knew was that the dragon must be brought down. "Guys, I'm getting off here." Luckily they were high up off the ground and above bahamut too, so he was in the perfect attack position. "May you guys survive the fight ahead." Kelvin says as he gets up and jumps of the phoenix. After free falling for a minute, he had positioned himself right above the dragon. He pulled out his sword and fell right on the back of the dragon, and he used his sword to catch himself from the fall by driving it into the things back. "I bet that pissed him off."

New plan. Fly us above Gabriel. Novaras thought to Phoenix. When we're up there, turn up the heat.

Why not just drop Josh here? Why let Gabriel save him? Phoenix asked, flying into position.

We aren't letting Gabriel save him, we're making Gabriel save him. Preoccupy flyboy while we help out that dragon. By now, Phoenix was above Gabriel, and was getting hotter. "Go limp, you'll be easier to catch." Novaras said to Josh before he cast the passenger off Pheonix with a blast of wind.

"Bring me as close as you can to Bahamut. Try to heal him if you can. If I fall off, be prepared to catch me." Novaras said. Pheonix flew just to the side of Bahamut, and Novaras blinked aboard, just in front of Kelvin. "Not so fast." Novaras said, preparing a Holy Fire spell.

Watch out.

"Huh?", Josh didnt realize he was falling till he noticed the ground getting closer, "Traitors...or evil summoners", he began muttering and a black ball grew next to him untill a large wasp came from it and cuaght him. "Take me down", as told the wasp, "And brace yourself", his eye glowed red and then a black and green concentrating a blast in his eye and let it loose, cuasing the wasp and himself to get push from the force of the blast. It was aimed right for Phoenix and traveld quickly.

"They evil shall fall", he said to himself and Anima as they decended.

OOC: I wont be around Thurs and Fri and posibbly the weekend.

"Should've known you would turn. Lying about that accent gave that away." Kelvin said as he pulled out his sword and prepared for the fight. "I'm feeling nice, why don't you make the first move." Kelvin said as he got into a defensive position.
