One hand rested upon a jewelled pommelstone of a great blade, bigger than the man himself as it rested slightly at an angle on the ground. Pendant and Dragon_Sniper, having just recently appeared, knelt down before him. "It seems the Guardians are beginning to appear in Fef, just as you had said, Sir." Pendant bowed "I engaged one in combat. Crysta, the Ice Master." "And I tailed the man called Soja, the Shadow Master." Dragon Sniper stood up, staring at her leader without trace of emotion. "So as of right now..." the shadowed man rubbed his chin pensively "We know on our side, we have the two of you, and the Lightning Master and the card master are currently headed here as well. that makes four of the seven seals. Of the guardians, we have caught wind now of the Ice Master, the Shadow Master...Reaver must be struggling to call out to them if only two so far have shown up." "Master Sentenal, I'm quite sure the rest of us are already in the city." Dragon Snpier's monotone seemed to cut the pensive air clean in two. "I'm already sensing the presense of the other elemental masters." "Which ones?" Sentenal immediately gripped his sword "Give me their locations at once...so that if they are indeed of the Seven Seals they will come immediately." "..." Dragon Sniper closed her eyes, the air around her warping. Pendant joined as their two energies mixed in the air. "The Earth Master is currently in the Fef military Barracks. A man called Rock." Dragon Sniper announced. "That is all I can gather at the moment." "our two new arrivals should go meet this Rock, fellow while you two rest up." Sentenal turned to the door. "Ah, they're here now." Stepping forward he revealed his longish brown hair, resting gently on the shoulders of his white trench coat. Everything he wore underneath was black. he hefted his sword upon his shoulders and took up a stance facing the door. Several lines appeared in the door, with light spilling through. The three in the room felt a sizzle of energy, and soon the door was blown apart. Two figures walked in...one coursing with lightning, and the other had a small sphere of playing cards floating around him. "Welcome gentlemen." he sized the two up. The electric man wore a black shirt and denim jacket with a pair of raggedy jeans. The smaller man had a long coat, a sleeveless shirt beneath it and a pair of khakis. "Neither of you look like a threat, now do you?" "You." Leon raised his rapier, the thin blade occasionally emitting a few sparks from the tip. "That wasn't a very nice introduction" "How about this one then!" The other one flicked his wrist deftly. The playing cards in the sphere went flying out at Sentenal "Stop invading our dreams!" he yelled. With surprising agility for one weilding a blade so large, Sentenal repelled the flying cards with ease. Without ceasing his motion, he leapt up into the air and slammed the massive weapon down, causing a tremor in the earth itself. Leon and the Cardmaster struggled to regain their balance, but not before they noticed Pendant between them with her circular blade to each of their necks. "Peace." Sentenal rested his weapon on the ground "I assume you're here because of my summons, yes?" The two men nodded. "So then you're Leon...he who wields the power of the thunderstorm. And you...a reknowned gambler and assassin...Zephyr, was it?" The man called Zephyr nodded. His blonde locks falling over his eyes a little as he did so. "So, Zephyr, Leon, welcome to the fold of the Seven Seals. You already know why you're here...even if you refuse to admit it." The two men nodded slowly, silently. "Then you already know of me." more nodding. "Fine then, bobbleheads. I'll give you your first assignment. There is a man called Rock currently stationed at the Fef Military Headquarters. Give him an interrogation. If he is on our side, bring him to us. If not, then dispose of him." * * * The bar had been good to Rock. It always had been. The tall man sat at the bar, still in his military fatigues. He had left the base earlier in search of a drink, and he had reached his quest. For all his apparent manliness, he did enjoy a good Mai Tai now and again, and he finished his second one with apparent, albeit silent, relish. As if he had expected it, a tingle in the ground itself caused him to stand up and face the door. Other patrons looked at the tall man quizically, wondering what he was up to. The door opened, allowing a cool night breeze to disperse the beer hall stank. "Major Rock. Come with us." Wordlessly, and betraying no emotion on his face, Rock left some cash on the bar and strode past the two men. "What do you want with me" he said in a rich baritone as the two walked alongside him. "You're involved with the end of the world, are you not?" the shaggy blonde asked. "And what if I am?" "Are you one of the Seven Guardians, or one of the Seven Seals." asked the brown haired one. "Depends on who's asking." "Members of the Seven Seals" the blonde asked hesitantly, instinctively reaching into his pocket. The brown haired one to Rock's left clenched his fists tightly, the air already starting to tense up with static electricity. Never one for words, Rock's answer was swift and brutal. The two Seals suffered a heavy punch each in succession from the powerful man. The two went hurtling across the empty street from the sheer force of it. They both hopped up and nodded at each other. "Leon, take left, I'll take the right." "Shut up." Leon muttered and went straight at Rock, drawing his rapier from the air "The dumb brute must not be very fast if he's that strong." Much to his chagrin, his initial thrust hit nothing and a heavy fist descended on his back. Zephyr shook his head and threw the cards up into the air, watching them form a pentacle. He began to charge his spell when a large pillar of earth rose out of the ground at a sharp angle, hitting him square in the stomach. Focusing his energy, he yelled something in a foreign tongue, and watched as the pentacle formation broke apart into many streaks of light, rushing at Rock at terrifying speed. Rock stood there, paralyzed for a moment; he had never seen an attack like that...more or less from playing cards. But just before the beams could hit, something seemed to swallow them up. Rock's face finally belied his surprise. Before him, a man wielding a large golden scythe seemed to rise out of the ground...as if he were on an unseen elevator. "I'll handle it from here, Rock." The Red Haired man turned and looked back at Rock, giving the slightest hint of a smile. "Soja...you son of a bitch...you're a guardian too?" "Yeah. Who'd have guessed?" The man called Soja levelled his scythe at Zephyr and Leon who were now standing up. "Now the playing field is even, wouldn't you say?"
