    Awright, I havn't RP'ed in a while so I'm a bit rusty people ^_^; work with me :P This is a story that I'm working on writing, so i decided to return to PC and make a *hopefully* succesful RP! (Hope the story dont sound to clique'd!)

    Long ago on the ancient continent of Saruz, all was peaceful on the continent, Saruz celebrating it's centenial of peace throughout it's nations...until one day a conspiracy in one of Saruz's nations caused an uprising of 7 powerful Dark mage's and their henchmen brought chaos across the continent, the 7 dark lords (as the dark mage's called themselves) each controlled a different Kingdom of the continent of Saruz, overthrowing and murdering each emperor and seizing control of each kingdom and it's throne. After 29 years of turmoil under the tyranny of the Dark Lords, a few people living under the rule of Dark Lord Macros discoveres a hidden temple underneath the city they occupied, a spiritual palace where the spirits of the elements reside...each person, now with the power of one element within their body must decide which route they take...wheather that is to release Saruz from its Tyranny of the Dark Lords...or to back away from the problem and watch as your life is lived out in turmoil...This is Crescent Moon...

Soon he found an old man that was dying, when he ran over to help the old man up, the old man touched James and bestowed him an elemental power "Dark" is what the old man's dying word was. James then realized that he should save this human race from any danger instead of letting it rot away. Afterwards he was teleported to some temple and he heard a voice next to him "Well lookie here we got another elemental to join us" said the voice. "What am I doing here?" asked James. "We cannot leave this place until they find us." said the voice. And that is what James has found out for the rest of the time he was in there, Who, What, When, Where, and How?

    Okay time to start this bad boy up! XD

    This RP is rated PG-14 for cursing and violence :D

    The sun was slowly setting on the horizon, Cloud sat on his roof and stared out at the broken down city, this was the only life he has known, Cloud layed down on his back and closed his eyes as sunset approached when, VREEEEEOOOOOMMMM!!! Cloud was startled and jolted up. To his surprise he saw his best friend Fawkes starting up his self-proclaimed street rover, oil shot out from under the hood where Fawkes was working on it "Crap! NOT AGAIN!!!" Fawkes yelled as he wiped the grease, which made a grease smear on his right cheek "hmm...wrench...*mumble mumble*" Fawkes mumbled as he searched through his toolbox and pulled out a wrench, he quickly whacked his street rover on the engine, which caused it to rev up and ram into the garage "AAAHHHHHH!!!" Fawkes screamed in rage as he chucked the wrench backwards, only to hit a 'parol' officer of the Hourglass who roamed the streets. The man in the black cloak walked up to Fawkes menacingly as Fawkes monkeyed around under the hood of his machine after pulling it out. "Yeah, yeah, leave me alone moron..." Fawkes said from under his vehicle "You seem to not know who i am..." The man said as he pulled Fawkes out from under the street rover "Oh crap..." Fawkes said sofltly with wide eyes. "Fawkes what have you done this time..." Cloud thought as he quickly got up and jumped down to the retractable latter on the side of his house and slid down "Sir, im sorry, my friend he's...not all there!" Cloud said, trying to get convince the man that Fawkes wasn't in the mental care to go to jail (very strict "laws" under the dictatorship of the Dark Lords) "He seems fine to me Fool!" the man said as he lifted Fawkes up by the coller and held him up, Fawkes closed his eyes and prayed humorusly "Alright..." Cloud said as he threw a rock at the engine starter for the street rover. The lights flashed on and blinded the man, Cloud leapt into the seat of the vehicle and sped by the man, knocking him over and getting Fawkes into the passanger seat. "Thanks Buddy!" Fawkes laughed as he reclined the recliner (makeshift, as i said XD) and put his feet on the dashboard. "Geez Fawkes this is like the fourth time this month i've had to save you from getting your *** beat..." Cloud said as he shook his head "Fifth!" Fawkes laughed "Fifth wha-nevermind..." Cloud laughed as he steered down towards the outskirts of town.
     
    Secluded from much of the tyranny that had overtaken the land, Willow sat in the branches of a tall conifer, watching the sun set on the horizon as it had since the beginning of time. Completely silent against a background of evening noises, Willow tossed her long blond braid behind her back.

    Her eyes were tired, but not because of the day's events. Her eyes were a kind of worn out, troubled tired. They had seen much...and endured much more. Alone now, with no one to call family or friend, she spent most of her time avoiding the minions and cronies of the Mage that ruled the land.

    She would have liked very much to return to her little cottage by the sea, but only spent time there to sleep or eat. Most of her time was spent in the forest, or out surfing in the ocean, as secluded and far away as she could get from the troubles her world faced day to day.

    The sun was setting....nearly gone. The warmth she had grown so accustomed to over the daytime would soon be transformed into the chill of night. She climbed down from the tree slowly, and walked down the forest path she had created back to her home by the sea.

    She sat out on her small porch with a cup of herbal tea. She sipped slowly and carefully, her eyes on the horizon, her heart beyond it....there had to be something better out there than this.
     
    Kaivious watched the sunset and then turned towards the river he was practicing his swordplay near. He had thought about what had happened that day concerning his instructor. Earlier that day he had been challenged to face his instuctor. The practice battles were fierce becauce of kaivious' great abbilites with a sword, but in the end his instructor was struck by arrows from the sky around the river. Now being practices his instructor or the stundent would of stoped the battle without death, but someone had killed Kaivious' instructor.

    He sat near the river pondering over who could of killed his instructor. He endend up come to one conclusion, he couldn't figure it out. So he grabbed his cloak and started wandering of to search for items along the street,"Hopefully I can find something tonight." He walked into the shadows of the city and into the streets.

    Cloud and Fawkes were relaxing under a tree as the sun set and Fawkes rusted up 'vehicle' stood out like a sore thumb around all the greenery of the surrounding land "It's sad isn't it..." Fawkes muttered from above on a sturdy branch with his eyes closed "Waddya mean?" Cloud asked from below, listening to the radio "I mean just think about 50 years ago this place was in total peace...I've never known what that was...ya know, struggling to survive basically, practically half the people in town carry some sort of weapon for protection and we're always-...did you hear that?" Fawkes ended as quitly as possible as he heard footsteps on the rock road ahead of them "Crap it's that guy you hit with the wrench!" Cloud exclaimed as he got up and pulled out a 7 foot long retractable bo staff from his back, Fawkes jumped down and pulled out his familys sword, which had many odd sympols on the sheath and blade itself. "You thought you would escape again, but you are wrong, Lord Macrose doesn't want the streets poluted with your filth!" the cloaked man said as his staff started to glow "VERTIGO KNIX!" the claoked man yelled as he cast a magic attack that struck the tree, causing it to fall, Fawkes leaped on the falling tree and kicked off of it, as he branded his weapon and slashed the man across his chest, blood fell from the mans body as he fell to the ground. "Is he..." Cloud asked with wide eyes "No, He aint dead...yet...but when he wakes up he's gonna be pissed...all of Macroses' cronys in town will be after us probably." Fawkes said in a light tone "y'know i doubt it this kinda thing happens everyday almost..." Cloud said as he walked up to the bleeding man and threw a rag from the street rover on the mans wound "Clean yourself up!" Cloud laughed as he and Fawkes got into the vehicle and sped off further through the forest until they came across a cottage by the sea...
     
    Willow, rather deep in a somewhat meditative state, heard two sets of feet approaching her home. She stirred ever so slightly, turning her head to the side to peer at the two figures. Her tea cup lay empty by her feet. She blinked, her expression blank.

    Slowly, her slender, lean form rose to her feet. She watched the two boys approach with a wary curiosity, wondering what had brought them so far out of the way.
     
    Cloud and Fawkes walked up to the girl about the same age as them and waved "Uh...Hi...Could you...uh...Be so kind as to tell us where in town we are? See we're kinda...Lost...heh..." Fawkes studdered as the two walked up to the young woman on her porch "Hi sorry if my friends scaring you," Cloud laughed as he smacked Fawkes in the head "...Well My names Cloud and this is my friend Fawkes, we're from Scito, thats about 30 miles that away!" Cloud said as he threw his thumb backwards.

    The pair were about 15 feet from where the girl was standing on her porch and could hear the crashing of waves on the near beach.
     
    "The prices for supplies around here are unbelievable..." I muttered as I exited yet another shop. As an attempt to avoid any unecessary trouble, I was taking the scenic route to my destination. The damp, cold, and dark alleyways along the edges of the town. If I was even so much as seen, I would be thrown in prison, just because of the profession I've pursued. There was a time when monks were highly respected members of society, famous for dispelling demons and such. Nowadays, if we're seen, we're thrown in the slammer. Then again, I'm not even fully a monk yet. I'm in training.

    Alas, I ran into an Hourglass at the beginning of my final exit, looking for conflict. I'm not really that strong, but I'm strong enough to take out a single crony of the darkness. I summoned a small ball of light overtop my palm, and threw it towards the Hourglass, knocking him out into the streets, and out cold. That would attract some attention...
     
    [OOC: sorry guys I was away yesterday, otherwise I would have posted. @.@]

    Tallain sat back and watched. He was enjoying this quite a bit, Leila was occupying herself with yet another dozen of the Hourglass henchmen. "Well... Looks like it's my turn," he said to himself as three of the magic users spotted him. Taking his lance from his back, he noticed Leila had finished with her opponents and was about to beat him to his own. "Do I ever get to kill anything by myself?" he murmured as two knives flew through the air straight at his opponents. He reattached his lance and walked over to Leila, obviously happy about her work today. "Hi," she said looking over her shoulder. "Did I go a bit overboard today?" Tallain sighed, she had been this energetic since a week ago after another one of her killing sprees. "Possibly, you do know how much attention this will attract, don't you?" She stared at him in disbelief, "If this is all they're going to send, is that called attention or suicide?" He shook his head, then noticing something past her he said, "Want to stop by the beach?"
     
    Willow walked over to the pair of boys. She had a small, friendly smile on her face, seeing that these two were not bad people. With a small chuckle at Fawkes' question, she replied:

    "Your best bet is to head back to Scito then. I'm the only one who lives here for miles at least. It's quite a long walk though. You could spend the night here if you want, since it's getting late. The Mage's henchmen will be out as soon as the sun goes down, and I assume by the looks of it you aren't on their side? In any case, my name is Willow. It's nice to meet you."

    She entended her hand for Cloud and Fawkes to shake, her long blond ponytail swaying gently in the ocean breeze.
     
    OOC: Just a warning, it is not a good idea to patronize my character. ?.o

    IC: In the alleyway the young man with red hair was standing outside, a large shape appeared, suddenly rushing towards him. He stopped in his tracks, however, when a thin sword blade protruded from his chest. The blade was pulled back, and he fell, revealing me, with my grey hair, but otherwise ageless look, with no wrinkles. I could have been as old as him, standing there in a long black coat that covered everything but my head. "You're lucky I was here." I said flatly, pointing at the cudgel in the thugs hand, before I bent low to the ground, searching his body for any money. It was how I got by, preying on thieves, until someone was stupid enough to accept a duel. I was mostly ignoring the boy, if he proved to be a threat, I was confident I could dispatch him easily enough...
