"So, what is it you wanted to ask me about?"
"Well... it's about ::Kerion lifted his eyepatch, showing his icy blue eye:: this. I heard this looks familiar to your eyes."

*Jas's eyes widen at the sight* "That's impossible. That's a Cetra eye. Where did you get that, who did you get that from?" *Looks to a waitress as she passed by* "Excuse me, can I get a drink."
"Certainly sir. What would you like?"
"Anything strong." I think I'm going to need it after hearing this.

"That's impossible. That's a Cetra eye. Where did you get that, who did you get that from?"
::Kerion holds his attempt to laugh when jas orders a drink:: "I got this eye from an old man. I was hired to be his bodyguard from Shinra. They came for him, I fought them off, but not before losing my left eye in the process. But just as I thought I was going to die, next thing I know the guys are down before the old man fell over. Despite only having one good eye, I got him to a hospital. But it was nearing his end. He had no other family, yet he requested me. I knew I wasn't going to get paid, but figured I let the old man have his last wish before he died. What he said surprised me, in lieu of money, he was going to have one of his eyes trasnplanted into me to replaced my damaged one. He told me of the magic he used, called it time magic. Said it took years for him to master, and yet all he could do was freeze time. He said it was entirely my choice. I figured I had nothing to lose, but he also made me promise not to misuse his 'gift' to me." ::Kerion covered his eye back:: "Who am I to deny a dying man his last request. I got the eye, but found it zapped my strenght unless I keep it covered at first." ::Kerion looks Jas in the eyes:: "I need to know how to fully master time magic. Tell me you know how."

*Jas had his eyes closed as Kerion explained how he got the eye. As he finished, he took a bite of the fish and swallowed it before replying:: "I'm sorry Kerion, but time magic is one classification we Cetra's try to avoid. We only use Haste and Slow, and that's all we're willing to go into. Need I remind you what time magic can do if its used for the wrong purpose, remember Ultimecia, that's one example of time magic that should never exist. So, you're on your own learning to control that eye, I never encountered anyone that had a implant off a Cetra before. This is new to me. Only you can learn how to use the old man;'s time magic. If he was as old as I think he was, he mastered that magic to make up for his failing body, but I think it's ironic that power also lead to his death. Remember Kerion, nothing good comes from manipulating time." *Takes another bite* "another question, what brought you here to Dali? I'm sure it wasn't the good food."

::Eva walked through the streets of Dali with a piece of paper in her hands as she kept her disguise up looking for an address::
I know it has to be around here some place..
::She looked up to see an abandoned building as she looked at the piece of paper and back up towards the building with a frown::
Figures it would be here in this area...time to search for clues.
::She took a deep breath as she then entered the building, taking note of the cobwebs and dust around the area::
I wonder how long this place had been empty....
::She started to go through the building working her way deeper and deeper inside hearing a slight humming noise as she progresses::
It sounds like there are machines going right now...But this place is abandoned isn't it?
::She continued to work her way deeper this time not noticing a flash of a muzzle that was pointed towards her direction as she progressed::

Dante sat in the bar, drinking his usual non-alcoholic sparkling cider in a beer mug.
I wonder if I called Eva to see how she is... Oh god, she's an strong angel lady for crying out loud! If she had a big snag, and I mean a BIG ONE, she can push that button on the cell and yours will start screaming like a stepped-on chocobo or something. But I'm sure whatever it is, she'll be fine... Yes... I suppose you are right. Knowing her, she cannot be put down that easily...
His mind starts to ease down and wonders about the events that happened such as these odd killings and the need for organs. It all just seems to lead back to the Order... but nothing much is supported other than a hooded man that smelled like roses and organs used to create some horrific monster maybe like that tank... then again, trying to recall as best he can, it seems to lead to some sort of odd symbolism of maybe a rebirth or summoning..... (OOC - I honestly can't recall well). He sighs a bit, continues his drink, and keeps ear sight of things...
(OOC - ... *sigh*... I started a new page again....)

::Eva barely heard a click before she dropped down just as the figure pulled the trigger as she quickly took behind cover::
Ok, this would explain why there's machines going in here...how many are there....
::She heard another click before diving out from her hiding spot and once again managed to dodge the incoming fire as she heard a voice echo around her::
"Heh heh heh....you've done well to dodge my shots...your the first to ever realize that there was someone in here."
::Eva kept calm a bit while accessing what route she's going to take::
"Why so silent? Are you so afraid that you can't speak?"
::The voice taunted while the figure aimed for her again::
I hate it when they talk to much...hmmm looks like I'm gonna have to improvise. What luck.
::Eva started running and step off to the side just as the figure pulled the trigger as it grazed her shoulder before she narrowed her eyes::
Got him!
::She ran over quickly to the direction she felt the blade at as she could then see the figure::
"Crap!"
::That was all the person could say before feeling Eva's fist in his face knocking him against the wall knocking him out::
"That was a bit easy....hmm now my curiosity is peaked. What was he guarding...."
::She froze him against the wall so he wouldn't go anywhere while she explored::
I'll keep him there and turn him in later...assuming Dante doesn't kill him first.
::She continued to explore deeper into the place where the roar of the machines were gettting louder and louder::

"Well... I'm not here on a vacation." Kerion replied to Jas. "I assume you heard about those murders in Lindblum?" ::Sees him nod:: "Well, I was involved in the investigation there, until the captain decided we weren't no longer needed. The killings were done by someone called the 'Autum Harvester'."

::Rainii begins flipping throught the book, Lillith telling her what to look for and when to stop. When they reach a page that looks promising, both girls lean a little closer to the book, focused on trying to glean any important information from it.

(OOC- I know that feeling lol)
::Eva continued to go down the building to the source of the noise as she was surprised on what she was seeing::
"This is amazing!!!!!"
::She saw the most beautiful diamond which seemed to have different colored flames inside of them as she took a step forward before quickly rolling to the side as a metallic fist dropped down to the spot she was just standing causing her phone to go out of her pocket as it unintentionally activated its camera mode and started its video share feature as it went to Dante's phone::
(OOC-Yes some cell phones does have that function on some of their phones...though its extra >.> bleh lol anywho back to the action)
"Oh come on!!!!! Not only did I get shot at earlier I gotta deal with you too!"
::The metallic arm withdrawn from the spot it punched as Eva looked up to see the metallic chimera before noticing its change to the arm into a gatling gun causing her to curse::
"Ok I retract my previous statement about getting shot at earlier..."
::She started to use her agility continuing to back flip and avoid the incoming fire as she tried to get herself to safety before doing a 1 handed cartwheel behind one of the machines as the robot stopped firing and started to make its way towards her::
Ok lets see, I get a machine with a gatling gun and a lot stronger than I am right now...what fun.
::She noticed some of the spots looked like it was melting while others doesn't::
And some of it is acid applied bullets....isn't life grand.
::She placed on her haste ring as she made her way quickly around the machine only to be blocked at her attempt of slicing it down as it grabbed the diamond and implanted it in its chest as the flames grew bigger each corresponding with a different color::
This is not good.....and I don't think this is a place he could track me...too much interference...I'm on my own...

"Eva!" Sina said. She jumped through a portal and rolled beside Eva. She stood up and wiped the dust out of her clothes. "What are you doing here? I was supposed to purchase a magic book from a shop nearby, I didn't know if it was good so I looked for you."

Bad spot to show up....
::Eva quickly jumped and tackled Sina out of the way as the robot let loose on the firing towards Sina's direction while getting shot on her arm causing her to scream in pain a bit::
"Agh...that hurt...."
::She tried to ignore the pain that was coming from her arm as she and Sina stood behind cover from the robot's firing as it was going towards her::
"Sina...I'll tell you this now...I think it would've been better for you to get some additional assitance than jumping in here with me..."
::She unsheathed her sword as it began glowing with fire and ice around it in a never ending tornado as Eva's disguise faded away revealing her firey hair and her wings extended out as she stood in front of Sina::
"I appreciate your concern but right now I want you to get out of here and if you need to get some help..."
::She see's the crystal glowing as it was setting up for a particular spell::
God, the last thing I need is a barrier set up!!!!!
::She cursed mentally as she flew out and slashed at the robot in its face, temporarily blinding it as she quickly turned to look at Sina as the machine started to fire randomly::
"Hurry before this thing sets up a barrier on portals! Trust me on this one."
::She glared as the gun quickly turned into a electric blade and was soon being thrusted toward's Sina's way causing her to quickly block the incoming blade::
"Your opponent is me...."

Sina held hands towards Sina and healed her. "Read your mind, Eva." Sina said and casted a temporary barrier around Eva. "The barrier activates itself when you're under attack. You can still attack. I'll Call the others quick!" Sina said and started concentrating making a portal.

As Dante ponders, he feels something vibrating in his coat just once. Jus as he was about to flip it open, the odd tune starts up and turns the heads of many people. Ignoring the people, he flipped it up and looked into his phone... and see as not an image but a video.
"Hm?" He takes notice of the very unique diamond. Ohh... shiny.... did you make sure she didn't nab your gil again? Then again, she does that only when Iole comes along because it's boring to go on a shopping spree alo--... It takes the turn for the worst as she was attacked. He stands up in surprise and shock. "Damn!" Calm down! I'm sure it can't get any worst...
Dante mashes buttons to get a location... but it keeps saying "no signal". He groans in rage. OK, OK, I'm sure she'll just take it down... eventually... without getting killed. I'm sure it can't get anymore worse... like W.T.F worst...
Then Sina appears on the video... I jinxed it again, did I? -.- You know, I see it ironic that she can't lift a dagger properly but can bend time and space to call a portal; Maybe it has to deal with class magic or something but like seriously-- The portal... I KNOW! It's like the most-- No, it is still there... and she said she was heading to a shop for a magic book and this village is rather small and rural... so find the shop, find her tracks... ... find the portal. SO RUN NAO!
He dashes out the bar after dropping a small pile of Gil to finds the shop. The scream from Eva gives him more of a rush... and a random memory. Big Brother, help!! ... what was that? Who cares!? Just.. focus and RUN!

Just as Dante was to run A portal appeared above him and Sina fell on him. "S-sorry Dante, I have to practice on my landing." She stood up and the portal was still there. "Dante quick! Get in the portal! Eva needs help!" Sina said and threw Dante into the portal causing him to land on the same area where Eva was. Now I have to go to Lillith.
Sina ran back to where Lillith was.

::Eva continued blocking the electric blade while she flew and dodged between a slash and a punch from the mechanical thing::
Is it just me or is this thing getting a lot faster...
::She frowned as she narrowly dodged another punch and soon found herself pinned down blocking the incoming blade as the force left a crater from where she was standing::
Ugh....it is getting stronger...its that diamond...I have to get it out of that thing's chest.
::She used the strength and twisted her body to the side to make the blade crash into the ground and started to run up the robot's arm and did a no hand cartwheel to dodge an incoming punch from the robot's other arm as her flame grew larger and on the blade before finding herself shot with a net and pinned against the wall as she glared at the one who shot the net::
"Well well well, if it isn't the one who froze me earlier to the all...I'm quite impressed that you lived as long as you have against my creation."
::The man smirked as he walked up to Eva who was trying to move her blade as the man got a sadistic look on his face and punched Eva's shot round on her arm causing her to clench her teeth in pain though she wasn't gonna give the man the satisfaction of hearing her cry out::
"Oh a firey one eh, I shouldn't be surprised I suppose."
::He grinned as he looked at Eva lustfully while she continued to get her blade loose::
"Maybe I should have some fun before I let my robot crush you eh?"
::He smirked while the robot was extending its blade out as it was prepared to stab Eva at a moment's notice::

(OOC - Sorry, sorry; was dragged along to watch the movie Bolt late tonight. I would also like to say sorry for the length of this post) Dante falls in flat on his back after Sina threw him in the portal. He starts to get up and groan. Geez, she's so random... I wouldn't surprised she was Ren's girlfrie--A metallic fist comes from above but Dante Backslides, flips back, and performs Retaliation Shot. He takes notice of what he is dealing with as his bullet just dinks this metallic Chimera. (OOC - I should have asked if it was on four legs as that is the only Chimera I know... well, it has arms so I should assume it has two.... you'll know why later in this post) Looks like we're going to have to take to a 'hole 'nother level! Pull the Memory Trigger and I'll--Out of nowhere, a net is fired not at him but Eva. He turns see this random man come up out of nowhere as he sadistically toys with Eva. "You...!" He was about to perform Aerodynamic Thrust but the Chimera annoyingly throws another punch at him, forcing him to cancel his move and block the attack. He skids back after impact and hits the wall grunting. The Chimera changes targets brandishing a blade and thrust forward towards Eva. "NO!!! EVA!!!" In a unexpected burst from the Memory Trigger, he performs Transcend Dash and covers Eva as he unsheathes his blade to block it... everything goes into slow motion as the blade is about to impact his. "I... do not want to lose you too... as you are one of main reasons I live for..." But through an unexpected twist... the blade skids off Dante's and gives enough impact to slightly pierce his Memory Trigger. His eyes widens... and his memories seem to be in conflict with... something else.. new memories he never recalled before but were too much "blur and static". Before he could observe, he bellows out a great otherly roar and gives out a force-pushing flame burst. The man is flown back, the net upon Eva disintegrate excluding her, and Chimera is just pushed back and annoyed; in retaliation, he turns his arm into a gatling gun and fires at Dante who stood motionless... until in an instant Dante simply lifts his arm as a whole demonic right arm of fire shielded him. From the arm and up, it slowly reconstructs its whole form via pyreflies... revealing the fire demon Ifirt... completely crimson red and transparent hovering behind his back with no legs. The Chimera continues shooting mindless only to have his bullets melt the instant it reached Ifirt's arm. Dante, almost too transparent blue and a pair of red eyes, flips his blade reversal and charges it up for Ifirt's Swipe, his blade with red-hot flames and an demonic arm; he dashes at it with a full single spin to swipe-slash and grabbing it at the same time, flinging it across the room. After crashing the wall, the Chimera's arms transforms and throws a pair of giant fists at him... only to be grabbed by both of Ifirt's/Dante's hands and later pulled the Chimera towards him. Once in range, he grabs both the arms of the Chimera, screeching in buzzing pain from the heat before they were ripped off. The Chimera, dazed and armless, is later hazed much further as Ifirt/Dante uses the arms to bash him more until the arms disintegrated. For the final ensuring blow that Chimera stays dead, he digs a hand in the dirt, inducing the dirt and rock with so much heat that it becomes shearing lava before performing Molten Slam... walloping a handful of lava with a powerful slam upon the Chimera and shoving it down the ground. When Ifirt/Dante's hand lift, it was nothing more than a pile of dried-crust lava... with the unique diamond amazingly still shining and intact. But it was not over yet as Ifirt/Dante turned to glare at the man. Before the man could leave, he was instantly grabbed by the legs from him; the unforgiven heat from the demonic being started to sear the man's legs with second-degree burn as he screamed in pain. He is lifted up to be eye-to-eye of Ifirt himself as he bellows a roar... he is about to swipe the man with the other arm.... SUMMON CEASE! Then in an instant, Dante grunts and Ifirt disappears dispersing into great amounts of pyreflies, dropping the man to the ground now unconscious. Dante, dispersing pyreflies himself, slowly walks to the diamond to pick it up... "... I... just remembered now, Eva..." After picking it up, he walks towards Eva and hands her the diamond as he caressed her hands... "... Happy Anniversary... Eva... I love you... always.." He almost pummels to the ground, maintain to stand through holding onto his sheathe and blade like a cane and to point of unconsciousness. The pyreflies starts to disperse more violently... (OOC - Damn, that was long... wasn't expecting that much.)

Of course she is. Can't we even go to Dali without the two of them blowing something up. Calm down Sina. Get control of yourself. ::looks at Rainii:: You know, now that I think about it, things started to pick up right after you got here. Did you jynx us? We might as well.
