(OOC:sorry for the misunderstanding people)
Dark Wolf followed his master's orders and imedeinently teleported to Europe,"send out all avalible units to find, and trap The Rising Dragon. Then, Maya wants him brought to her. she wants him ALIVE."

~Reidou Ruins~

Behind the massive door was an Ancient. He was covered in silvery-white armor that resembled the armor of a knight, and he had long red hair that reached his ankles. He was slightly pale, much like Juno, and had cords jacked into his spine, elbows, and the backs of his knees. He had large silver wings on his back that looked similar to the wings of an angle. He seemed to be in the fetal position as he hung a good 9-feet off the floor. He appeared to be sleeping, or maybe even deceased. Due to his armor one couldn’t tell if he was breathing, which almost made him look dead. Suddenly his eyes shot open, and he stared down at the 3 Ancients. “So, the war has come,” the cords launched out of him, and he landed gracefully on his feet, “and the Ancients still stand.” The man stood at 6’2, about the same height of Kouken.

"Their powers might be similar, but they are not the same. Trust me, I would know." Juno replied. "In reference to what you said about Ziatoch giving Kuro his power, I highly doubt that. I know where Kuro got his power." Juno stated bluntly. "I've been doing a lot of research on Kuro and The Seven. However, some files are so ancient that they were even before the time of the Ancients." Juno paused a brief moment. "Kuro's total power of darkness was given to him by God when he was chosen to be the Dark Balance. He may have had powers similar to that before, but no records of him were kept... None that I can find."

~Reidou Ruin~

"Indeed, we do." Said Kouken.
"The time has come to summon the Elitro Reaverbots." Geetz said plainly.
"The Guardians await me. I must go now." Kouken said. He bowed to the other Ancients, and then teleported to where the Guardians were waiting to be dispatched.


[color=red]~With Donovan~[/i]

"You're a bit bossy for being so small." Donovan said rudely. "But, if the master wants this 'Rising Dragon' caught, than it shall be done." He stated as he rose to his feet. "Units 23 through 25!" He called out to 3 units of shadow-creatures. "Go, retrieve the Rising Dragon!" He ordered loudly.

Maya used a mind link she had with DW to have him tell Donovan to send his units to Kattelox.
"Kattelox Island, huh?" Said Donovan. "To Kattelox! Go!!" With that said, 300 shadow-creatures headed toward Kattelox with unbelievable speed--1 unit simply travled via the shadows, arriving at Kattelox right away. The Commander of the unit looked like a half-man half-snake shadow-creature, and stood at about 7'3.
"Find the Rising Dragon!" He ordered with a screachy voice, and the 99 creatures rushed off in search of R.D.[/color]

"The feel would be different, that it true," Ondal said, "As it is, He is still just as dangerous as the enemies you face now. Should Maya bring Ziatoch the Rising Dragon, it is doubtful He would keep His word if it were a deal. He would wait, and when the time comes, He would have her struck down. Do not be surprised if He actually comes to your aid during this war."

Ondal looked down at the floor, looking tired. "But also remember, you will be in His way as well. Do not be surprised if He comes to Maya's aid as well."

Ondal looked back up at Juno. "Perhaps we can benefit each other, MegaMan Juno. I need someone to help guide the Dragon on the path to unlocking his power and his memory. You seek knowledge of the Dark Balance. I can be of aid there," he offered.

===At Shayol Ghul===

The Child looked down upon the black tower of Xobelisk from one of the four Demon Spires, his ragged clothing fluttering in the wind. "The end of the Age has arrived," he said in a small voice, "And now you plan to give the Ancient access? A bold move, but risky as well."

It is necessary, Ondal replied in a mental link, We have been on the Isle for much too long. It is foolish to think that mortals are not gaining in power. It is the only way.

"Are you sure, Ondal?" the Child whispered, "The Library is too great a place. The knowledge could very well destroy him."

I am confident he will be fine. His power is unlike any other. He would be perfect to aid the Dragon and the Host.

"Very well, Artisan Ondal," the Child said, "Thy will be done, thy kingdom come, after all."

"...I am rather hungry," Matt suddenly remarked.

"Okay..." Hugo answered, not really caring.

Matt unshouldered his backpack, and dug into it briefly. "Okay, we may have a problem. Almost all our food is out."

"Good thing we're near a town, huh?" Alasea said, "It shouldn't be too much of a problem to get some."

R.D. glanced over at Alasea. "One, I think people are going to freak if our little ragtag band of misfits march into town leading a small platoon of Reaverbots, and two, this place isn't completely demolished like half the known world," he said, "So how do you propose we PAY for this food?"

Alasea rolled her eyes. "My parents were, if anything, rich. They're will had it so their fortune is inherited by me, seeing how they knew I wouldn't blow it all in one place," she explained patiently to R.D., "So don't worry about money. It's all on me."

She gave him an evil grin, still miffed about his sexist comment from earlier, "Though it's totally unchivalrous to make a lady pay, you know," she teased.

R.D. simply rolled his eyes. "Don't think I can't take you in a fight," he warned.

"I have Reaverbots now."

"Mine are bigger, and I have Lumiya."

"... touché," Alasea muttered sullenly. "I'll pay for the food, just don't expect me to carry it all."

"I am sorry. But I cannot be R.D.'s guardian. The war is coming quick, and I must lead my army against The Seven Beats." Juno replied. "As much as I desire more information on Kuro I must put others before myself."
"I'll do it." Vagabond said suddenly, a hard expression on his face.


~Elsewhere~

A small group of about 10 shadow-creatures had located Matthew and the others, and saw R.D. was with them. "There! I found it!" He exclaimed as he pointed to R.D.
The other creatures looked to R.D., and a mental message was sent to all the other creatures telling them where to find R.D.

A large shape rose out of the shadows on the horizon, seemingly twisting the darkness around it. The night sky seemed lighter, comparitively.

"Wonder what that is," Kalmar thought, standing in his boat to stare at the floating castle on the horizon.

"Or who owns it, for that matter."

----With HER!! >.< ----

The redheaded woman stepped out from behind a tree, her green eyes glowing contemptuously. She waved her hand in the air, and a blueish trail appeared, moving through the forest towards the ocean.

"You can run, my dear... but you can't hide."

She slowly stepped forward, following the trail on it's ever steady course to Kalmar.

"I did not say guardian," Ondal explained, "I said guide. Someone who can help him tap into his power and teach him to be a leader for when he enters the war, as he WILL enter it."

Ondal looked at Vagabond briefly, before returning his gaze to Juno. "Think on it. The offer is still open. The Library of the Isle contains more knowledge than anything even Elysium holds. There, you will find the answers to Kuro, and perhaps weaknesses in the Seven Beasts and Maya."

He finally turned to Vagabond. "You will do what, now, Vagabond?" he asked politely.

===On Kattelox===

Something suddenly shot through R.D.'s mind like a lightning bolt.

"Look alive, guys," he growled, "We've got company."

"I'll be his guide." Vagabond replied. "I know what you're thinking, but I can do this." He paused a moment, and then added: "Ya gotta trust me here. I'm the guy for the job."

Juno looked at Vagabond, not sure what to make of him. Was this man as his name stated, a wonderer, or was he something else?


~With R.D. and friends~

"Retrieve the Rising Dragon!" One creature shouted, and the beasts ran toward the group, ready to strike down all who got in their way of capturing R.D.

The shadow-creatures exploded just as Lee once did, and then reformed, surrounding Matthew and the others. "Give up now, and we will not kill you! We come only for the Rising Dragon!" One monster stated loudly.

"Robots! Attack!" R.D. shouted, alerting his Reaverbots to charge into the fray, further disrupting the group of shadow creatures.

Just why am I called the Rising Dragon, anyways? he wondered as he drew one Phase Blade and slammed it into the hilt of the other. He pulled the fused weapons out and squeezed the hilt, causing the blades of the Phase Lance to extend. The amnesiac teen readied himself for battle as he spun the weapon overhead and brought it down into a combat stance.

===Within the Main Gate===

Ondal also watched Vagabond closely, his line of thought unknowingly mirroring Juno's. The man puzzled the Artisan. Finally he asked, not unkindly, "Do you have any experience in the field of untapped potential?"

"Indeed I do." Vagabond replied as he folded his arms. "I am also very skilled in combat." he added. "If it's quite alright I would rather not reveal anything more about myself until later."

~Elsewhere~

The shadow-creatures were one of the weaker groups, and many were killed by the Reaverbots R.D. commanded. 1 other was killed by Matthew, another harmed by Hugo. However, 4 still remained. The 4 lept at the group, and tried to slice them into pieces with their large claws.

The 4 were destroyed, but not before the other 80 shadow-creatures showed up. They just stood there a moment, smirks on their faces, many of them laughing lightly. "Soldiers, bring the Rising Dragon." The snake-like Commander ordered, and the other 79 monsters charged at the group, seeking to kill all but R.D.

R.D. swung himself and slashed his Phase Lance around in a circle at one of the beasts that leapt at him, and used his free hand to start firing Light Beams at another. "I told Lee the same thing, we're no easy meat!" he snarled.

Alasea unsheathed her own weapons and ordered her Reaverbots to aid the group, then leapt at her foes. Hope my Reverser Strike works on these guys as well, she thought as she tore into the ranks of shadow creatures.

When the rest of the monsters showed up, however, he couldn't help it.

"God dammit!" R.D. swore at the incoming horde.

===Within the Main Gate===

"We shall see," Ondal replied, "I will have to observe you more as time goes on. But I believe you have good intentions. If you wish, you may aid in R.D.'s current battle, but no more than that. Should I give you permission to guide him, I will take you to him personally. Do we have an agreement, Vagabond?"

"That doesn't look good," Hsien-Ko deadpanned, in a rare moment of dry wit.

"I'LL take care of this!" Matt chambered his fists, and began drawing energy. "Megaton..."

Hugo raised his pickaxe. "I'LL take care of this, you mean!" He slammed his pickaxe down, and torrents of cold overtook his small body, changing his helmet and shoes to a cool blue. He dismissed the cold torrent with a wave of his pickaxe, pointed it at the horde. "Let's go!"

Vagabond unzipped the zipper on the side of his bag, and tossed the content on the floor. Out of the bag came some food, a water canteen, the jem he took from Matt, and two sword hilts. The hilts seemed to be made of white gold, but there was no blade on either of them. There were also shin-guards, forearm-guards, a torso piece, and lastly a helmet--all made of the same thing the hilts were made of.
Vagabond knelt down, and slid the peice of armor for his torso over his head, and shoved his arms through the arm-holes. He put the forearm-guards on, and then the shin-guards, and lastly his helmet. On the helmet was a blue diamond about an inch large. He touched the diamond with his right index finger, and then he said: "Armor of War, activate." He said, and suddenly the space between each indivudual piece of armor was covered by a thin layer of a red metalic substance.

Juno's eyes widened as he gazed upon Vagabond. "Oooh...shiney." He said quietly.

"I'm on it." Vagabond said to Ondal, and then grabbed his hilts. When he moved them toward his armor they started to glow. Once they met the armor around his waist silver sheaths formed on the hilts, and the sheaths connected to the armor. He stood to his feet, and then rushed off with such speed he could hardly be seen.
It didn't take him but a couple seconds to reach the mass of shadow-creatures. When they were in sight he unsheathed his blades, which were made of the same red metalic substance areas of his armor was made of. "Hya!!" He shouted as he raced through the 79 monsters, slicing them into pieces within a second, and then stood about ten feet in front of the Commander with his back to him. "May your spirits find peace." he said as he sheathed his double-bladed swords.

"What?!?!" The Commander exclaimed as he looked upon Vagabond with widened eyes.

The dark form of Ziatoch sat on the Throne of Souls, His red eyes staring. But His eyes saw nothing of the Throne. In reality, He watched the battle between the Dragon, the Host, and Donovan's latest monster. He was mildly intrigued by the interloper, but not overly concerned.

He then felt something enter His lair.

Is there something you require? He inquired.

The being that stepped onto the platform wore a black hooded cloak. It did not speak, but merely turned its head to the side slightly.

Very well, Ziatoch said to His guest, Do as you see fit. You know not to mention a word of Me should you be captured.

The being stood straighter, as if it were insulted. Ziatoch chuckled. Indeed you would not. I do not doubt your abilities, avatar. Go. Use the shadows.

The being nodded to his master, and was suddenly gone.

===At Kattelox===

The cloaked figure stepped out from the shadow of a tree and watched as the red-armored figure confronted the leader of the group of minions that had been slaughtered. It looked down at the group, flanked by Reaverbots. It stared at R.D. and Matt in particular.

It raised a hand out of its cloak and snapped its fingers, and a multitude of demons appeared around the group, snarling and raring to battle.

Down on the battlefield, R.D. swore. "Well this isn't good," he muttered under his breath. He had barely had a chance to react to Vagabond's emergence and the destruction of the group of shadow beings when another set of monsters appeared.

Alasea looked up on the hill the interloper stood on. It waved its hand, and the demonic horde converged on the group.

===Within the Main Gate===

"A strange one, this Vagabond is," Ondal murmured, "So secretive. He never did agree to my terms before he left."

The Artisan turned back to the Ancient. "So, Juno, I know you have an obligation to your obligation, but I believe you may find the knowledge waiting at the Library of the Isle quite useful. We have much information of Kuro stored there, though I do not know if some of it was damaged by the previous Age."

A thought came to Ondal, and he cursed inwardly. He is here? That monster was supposed to have been destroyed completely.

"I must make my leave now, Juno. The offer is still open. Should you desire to enter the Library, call my name and I shall appear. May the Light shine on you, Master Key of Kattelox," Ondal bid his farewell, bowing. With a thought, he disappeared.


"Why do you care that I care that you care enough to care that I care for caring?" "Conversation isn't your strong point, is it?"
"I worship the supreme comrade Cossack!"
"OugharagarraaahhHHH: When 'Ow' just won't cut it."

"Oh, this just keeps getting BETTER and BETTER!" Matt spat, hands bright with power. "All right then! Boys, I'm servin' up a nice, hot pan of HUMBLE pie!"

He threw his hands foward. "Get it while it's HOT!"

The Megaton Cannon made its grand entrance, erupting from Matt's palm as a bold, powerful beam of streaking blue energy, fired at their various enemies.

Meanwhile, Hugo slammed his pickaxe to the ground head-first, and from that point, jagged towers of ice burst forth in a large wave toward the monsters. "Frost Tower!

"Feel my wrath." Vagabond said slowly, and stirnly as he drew his blades. He dashed into the horde of demons, slashing at them with incredible speed, force, and accuricy. He made his way through the demons until he reached R.D., and stood by his side. He looked to his Phase Lance, seeming rather intrigued by it. Let's see just how good they really are. He thought to himself. He ran through the crowd of fiends at the speed of light, slicing through many demons as he did so.

R.D. nodded and readied his weapon. As he dove forward into the mass of creatures, he noticed the ground shake as Matt's Megaton Cannon vaporized a swathe of monsters, and Hugo's ice attack shred another large group, while his Reaverbots trailed behind him, wrecking their own kind of mechanical havoc.

The being in the cloak watched passively as the group tore into the group of monsters. And as if it were some sick game, with another snaps of its fingers, another horde of demons appeared around the group, nearly twice the size of the first group of demons it had summoned.

Back on the battlefield, R.D. and Alasea danced a tight circle with their backs to each other, their blades slashing through the ranks of monsters that pressed closer.

A particularly large beast, with massive arms, a dumb face, and a strange cart strapped to its back, lumbered up behind Matt and swung its large arms, while a group of imps began throwing spells at the two sisters while they made short teleport leaps around them.

Matt felt the attack coming and leapt up, swinging around and delivering a hard roundhouse to the beast in mid-air.

It was then that he caught side of the cloaked figure. There you are, you little bastard...

Now in battle mode, Hsien-Ko spread her arms to their full length and swung around quickly, like a bladed tornado. Her claws extended, attached to chains, in order to better attack her assailants.

Vagabond caught sight of the being up on the hill just as he snapped his fingers. "Well, well...the ringmaster." He said to no one particular. "Wait a minute..." He rose an eyebrow, "where's the snake dude?"

Up on the hill the snake-like shadow-creature stood behind the cloaked being. "Who are you?" The shadow-creature asked.

"Make way!" Vagabond shouted to R.D. & friends as he readied his swords. Father, guide me. He prayed silently. "Cha!!" He yelled as he raced through the demons, imps, and other faul creatures that had arose, slicing through them with ease. He moved like lightning, killing anything touched. For his final kill, he jumped up and slashed through the beast towering over Matthew, his blades and armor shimmering in the sun. "Begone!" With that one word the monsters fell to the ground, deceased.

~Main Gate~

Juno watched on the small screen in the cryo-room as Vagabond defeated the monsters, rather effortlessly. "Just what are you, Vagabond?" Juno thought out loud.

Ultima slowly made his way out of the forest covered in dirt and leaves he arrived before a town surrounded by a giant pool of water."Aw damnit can't I ever get a break?!"he fell over backwards and stared up at the sky.

(OOC: Yo, Juno, tone Vagabond down a little. I don't want to keep adding monsters.)

The cloaked figure watched as Matt's kick, combined with Vagabond's attack, obliterated the lumbering beast. With a twitch of its fingers, a pair of winged female demons, much like Cora, descended from the air at Matt, their hands sporting vicious claws. Another snap, and an even larger group of monsters surged onto the battlefield.

It then turned to the snake creature and stared at it. With a look, it dismissed the creature as a weak tool. It turned away and continued watching the battle.

With a quick plan, R.D. had Alasea step up onto his blade. Using a burst of strength from Lumiya, he used his Lance to vault the girl through the air. She made a whooping cry as she cut down some flying monsters and landed nimbly on one of Matt's Karumuna Bashes, and quickly seated herself. As the Reaverbot charged through the fray, Alasea used her blades to strike down enemies it missed in its charge.

R.D. quickly cut his way through the pack. He too had spotted the cloaked figure. After a spot of frustration, R.D. used his superweapon's elemental powers to launch a flurry of fireballs, ice bolts, and tines of lightning at a pair of large demons wielding human corpses at clubs, then charged up the hill at the figure. He split his Lance into the two Phase Blades as the figure drew a black sword.

"Here, boy!" Matt shouted at his other Bash, which promptly came running in. Leaping on it, he drew his Vorpal Sword, and ran through the crowd, skewering monsters. "This is startin' to get old!"

Hugo was just laughing maniacally as he reveled in the carnage he was causing, his powerful ice attacks easily defeating his enemies.

Hsien-Ko, meanwhile, was surfing through the crowd on one of her own hovering Reaverbots, slicing and dicing on her own.
