Dara watched everyone's movements as the situation got thicker. Nothing had even happened yet, but everyone seemed unrelaxed. Running her fingers through her hair, she stared up at the moon. She was unsure what time it was, but by the position of the moon, she figured it was late. The stars were no longer visible, as a thick cloud began to cross the sky. Dara shivered as she felt the night breeze run through her legs.

For another moment, she didn't realize Rael was speaking to her. As she heard his voice echo in her ears, she stared at him. "Um, I don't know. I think he wants us to follow him. What're we waiting for?"

Grabbing Rael's arm, she rushed to trace Dark's foot steps. He was abnormally fast, something Dara was not. It was pitch black, so her vision was impared too. Sighing, she began to call out to Dark, hoping he could actually still hear her.

"DDDAAARRRKKK! Where are we going? Can you slow down please? I need to catch up to you! Rael is with us! He can offer protection."
 
IC: I'm sorry I won't be able to rp everyday anymore. My finals are starting this thursday. ^^"

Dark came to a sudden halt as he heard the voice of Dara calling out for him. Heavily panting, he noticed how heard he had been running without noticing it himself. Seems te saying that fear gave you wings was true. As he was slowly regaining his normal breathing speed, he heard Dara's voice getting louder. So she had faith in the other boy. Dark stretched his back and turned his head towards the noice. Well, he'd rather flee then fight, certainly against those beasts.
He took a few steps back until the previous turn and waited there for the rest to catch up. If he fled too fast, he would possible outrun them and leave them alone in this city. A city that was fairly unknown to them, he though. It would be unfairo leave them in the dark.
 
OoC: Sorry for being so inactive, it's really harming JBC's story.

IC: "It shouldn't be a problem trying to get her trust. You know, I've always had a 'thing' with the ladies," Mizujin winked as he laughed at his own self in admiration. He began to talk to Zelda with a soothing voice that really made her think about who Mizujin was. With what he said, Mizujin had begun to gain some of the princesses trust. It wasn't all going to happen in a single moment, but he felt as if he had done enough for now.

"Well, I think we should be able to get out of the castle with her, but we can't do anything to lose the trust that we've already gained. Now what's my prize? I can choose so I choose....I'm going to sleep on this one." Mizujin gave a sleepy look as he stared out the nearest window at the darkening sky.
 
OCC: It's okay Mudkipblader and Leader-sama. Our poor RP is loosing its touch. XD

IC: Dara, with Rael in tow, continued running at full pace towards Dark. It was still nearly pitch black, something Dara hated. The dark had always been a fear of her's, since she was younger. And since everyone seemed to be talking about monsters and the Evil King's guards, she felt more scared. She halted for a moment to catch her breath. The air wasn't freezing, but she could see her breath plain and visible in front of her. Dara figured she had been running too hard. Since she had not spoken to Rael, she wondered if he was still there. Feeling around for his prescence, her question was answered. He was next to her, where she had originally began dragging him.

"DARK!" She cried out, once again. "Where are you? If you're closer to us, please reply back!"
 
Rael began to help Dara look around for Dark, even though he really didn't want to. He thought it would help him when her love though. As they looked around, Rael began to hear weird growling noises and they continued to get much worse. Rael pulled Dara close to him as he searched around for Dark. He hand his other hand on his sword, preparing to pull it out if necessary.

"Dara, maybe we should stop looking for now." Rael suggested, hoping she would listen.

The noises kept getting worse as whatever was causing the noise came much closer. Rael didn't want to wait around to find out what it was and hope that Dark would be near by. He sweeped Dara off of her feet and quickly ran away, hoping to find some kind of decent shelter. He held her so close that Dara could feel his heart beat against his chest. Laughing could be heard in a distance as he ran. It's not that Rael was scared, he was just worried about what the outcome could possibley be. He didn't want Dara to get hurt which is why he was running away from the noise.
 
Mosquett shook his head slowly, alowing his long black hair to fall over his shoulders, "First I must get my sword... after that..." he smiled, "After That we search for the inlightened ones." He turned to the princess, "Darling... where is it?"

She looked up at him her eyes dreamy, "It's in the throne room..."

Mosquett nodded, "I shall return." And he was gone, like smoke he travled threw the halls of the castle, fast and silent a true ninja. He reached the throne room and found his sword, the long blade that had been his only friend for many many years. "there you are..." he whispered lovingly to it. Taking it in both hands he makes his way back to the tower all the while wondering exactly who the other inlightened ones where.

When he got back to the room he appeared suddenly hoping to startle the two who stood there, The princess squealed and Mosquett chuckled, "I have him." he showes Penitrator, the sword was easily two thirds of his hight and the pink jewl at the end of the hilt shimered as Mosquett's power corsed threw it. "If we wish to get out before they find me missing we must go threw the way they brought you." he said to the Zora.
 
OOC: Haha sorry guys I haven't been able to posted since I was accpeted. I'm in Florida and I can only get on at the Library and I haven't been able to go for a while.

IC: Alex was standing on a rooftop with a torch in hand and his bow across his shoulder. He loosened the bowstring on his shoulder and it went down a few milimeters on his shoulder. "There we go." He said and checked his quiver. He had a number of thirty some arrows. He put the quiver back on his back. He ran over to a ledge with the torch and set it down. IT was pitch black, the time of the night he loved. He pulled the bow off his shoulder and knocked three arrows. He saw a massive creature run right into the light of the torch. He unleashed the arrows. One nailed it in the head as another landed right into it's hand that carried it's sword. The creature roared but it lasted only a second or two. The last arrow nailed it throw the head this time. Alex grinned. He grabbed the torch and jumped down to a balcany and landed on it and and jumped the small jump to the ground. He plucked out the arrows, which took longer then he liked. He sliped them in his quiver and slung the bow back in place and walked slowly down a diserted alleyway. The torch gripped in his hand and the bow ready for him to whip out any time. Alex turned a bend and stuck the torch out. He saw a man, couldn't really tell the age by the dim light of the torch. Alex didn't say a thing for a while. "Hey are you lost? Or just waiting for something?" He asked the man curiosully.
 
Beginning to become hesitate, Dara weaseled out of Rael's arms. As much as she enjoyed the warmth, she had to cease it. She was still searching for Dark, and saw the dim glow of a torch, or maybe a lamp. Unsure what it was, Dara gripped onto Rael's arm again. This time, she threw him infront of her, almost as if she was pushing him. Still, her grip was stead fast, and she would not let go. Once she reached nearer to the glow of light, she whispered to Rael.

"What is that. Better yet, who is that? Rael, go and see who it is. I'll be behind you."

Dara continued to guide Rael, or have him guide her. Once they reached the light, she noticed two shadows in the form of humans. She sighed with relief. Having a keen sense of smell, she noticed one of them to be Dark. Another sigh of relief. The other person, whose scent her nose had not memorized, made her a bit more nervous. Dara prayed it was someone of good interest, not an enemey surrounding them.

"Hey Dark." She began to whispered, "We finally caught up with you. Is your house closer now? It's getting colder outside. And.. whos is that one person?"

Rubbing her arms over her shoulders, Dara shivered. Her attire was not suited for the night, especially this time of night. Still, he held onto Rael, hoping he could keep her warmer.
 
Rael pulled Dara close as he tried to warm her up. He knew that her clothing was not suitable for this kind of weather right now. He grew angry as he knew Dark was around.

"Dark, would stop running away?" He yelled.

He was growing more and more frustrated with this Dark guy, he always left them behind! Since they are new to the place, too, they didn't know where to go or what to do if something bad happened. He noticed someone else was with Dark and became more protective over Dara.

"A buddy to help you steal, Dark?" He hissed.

He held her much closer, hoping to protect her and keep her much more warm.
 
OC: Okay, I just deleted it anyway. =o

Dark leaned agains the wall. Listening to the sound of Dara's voice. The noise was coming towards him, so they were catching up. Dark sighed of relief. He put his hands next to his mouth and called out for them. He was not sure if they would hear him, but it was worth trying.
His right hand had started itching. With his other hand he rubbed over it, but the itching didn't go away.
He sighed. Ever since this night, it had been itching, without stopping. It was warning him, in some way. But Dark didn't understand.
He quietly removed the cloth around his hand and walked towards the only torch on the crossroads. He stretched his fingers and looked at the back of his hand. It was still there... very blurry and not barely visible: The crest of the Triforce. He was blessed with the power of the Goddesses some would say. But Dark thought more of it as a curse, after all none of the three triangles ever lit up. No, only the fourth and middle one. And it didn't even lit up. It was dark, very dark. As if it sucked up the light of the torch. He groaned and rubbed over the it again. Nothing changed. Dark wished for the morning to come, then his hand would probably become "normal again".
He suddenly heared a strange voice asking him something. Dark rushed to bind the cloth around his hand again and turned around. There was a youngman standing there. In the little of light there was, Dark could see that he had almost his age. His hair was very dark and he was armed with a bow. In his hand he held a doused torch.

While Dark was trying to explain to the stranger that he was waiting for someone and that it was dangerous tonight, he heard the now familiar voice of Dara. His heart sprung up. They had found him. He smiled broadly as he turned back to them. He saw that Dara was having a hard time with the night's temperature. Even though he was only wearing a T-Shirt, he wasn't cold. He got used to the nights temperature. "It's not that far anymore," he grinned. "You'll be warm very soon."

Dark groaned inside when he heard Rael's remark. HE wouldn't get angry very easily, but if Rael would continue like that, he would be very soon.
"No, and for your information, I just met him." he hissed back. "Let's go", he said normally. He turned to the stranger and asked him if he would tag along or not.
 
Dara could see a faint glow coming from Dark's other hand. She became interested and stared at it. Ever since the moonlight had become brighter and the evening later, he was obsessed with itching his hand. A little worried, Dara reached out for Dark's hand. Her touch was gentle, and she hoped it was not burning his hand in anyways. She was unsure what was even wrong with his hand. Now, the glow of his hand became a tad more visible to her. It was in the shape of a triangle with the center piece missing. Carefully, she examined it.

"Dark, why is that symbol on your hand? Why is it itching?"

Her inquiries became more and more annoying, or so she began to think. "Dark, are you going to be okay? If you want, we can go ahead and go to your house if it is bothering you that bad. I've only seen this symbol as the mark of the Royal Family of Hyrule, but that was years and years ago. Why do you have it?"
 
A shiver rushed through Dark's body as Dara took his hand. Although her touch was gentle, Dark was not used to being touched by anyone, as he mostly was alone. She took his hand in hers and stared at it.
He softly cursed himself for not putting the piece of cloth in place. He pulled his hand away, probably more rudely than he wanted to. With his left hand he quickly bound the cloth around his hand.
"I... it's nothing..." he said, for some unknown reason a slight blush had appeared on his cheeks. He was happy that it was dark, for he could not tell if it was of embarrasment, anger of because of Dara taking his hand.
"I...I'll be fine..." A second shiver rushed through his body, and this time it wasn't because of Dara...

A loud and unplacable noise came from the rooftop. Dark's neckhair went straight up from hearing those sounds. The guardians of the king where here.
 
OoC: Just so I don't have to spend 20 minutes each time I visit this place, I've only been reading JBC's posts until we meet up with the others. (Sorry if this offends anyone, it's just so I save time.) I noticed you talking about the enlightened ones, is this something everyone else has been talking about, or is just something you came up with?

IC: "Well, I hope I remember the way around this place. It was pretty nerve racking the first time through and I was thinking so much. I just hope I don't get us lost. Well here goes nothing," Mizujin said as he darted down the nearest corridor hoping to find the rotting wooden door that he had entered the dungeon from the first time. His companions followed close behind also hoping he could find the right way.

As they came nearer and nearer to the end of the hallway, the door didn't appear. Mizujin felt as if he had failed, but he didn't give up. At the end of the hallway, there was no door like the one he came through, so they ran even faster down the hall again back where they were before. This time Mizujin chose a different hallway and within about two minutes he had found the door.

"This is the door," he said as he shook the handle "but it's locked...." He spun around quickly, and smacked the handle with one of his forearm fins. The handle shattered as the door fell open. "Now quickly! I wanted that to be quieter but we need to go now." They darted down the stairs and through the rat infested sewers until they reached the door that led outside.

Dara watched Dark draw back, a little disdain sweeping over her. She felt like she had done something wrong or offended him. Watching him wrap his hand, she became more curious, but didn't push the subject any longer. Sighing, she decided to let it go. Rael was still beside her, or so she could tell. The only possible sign she knew he was there was his breathing in the air. Once again, Dara's body reminded her that she was quite cold. Shivering again, she attempted to warm herself up. The boy with the torch seemed quite content with the heat, making her a tad jealous. She wanted to be warm.

"What's.. that noise?" Dara asked, hearing loud foot steps coming from far away. She noticed Dark's reaction, and figured he knew better than she did. Taking Rael's hand in nervousness, she stared off into the abyss.

"Come on guys! I think the guardians are coming here.. we need to run everyone!"
 
Rael didn't understand what they were talking about at all. He didn't know what the royal family symbol was and he didn't understand who the guardian's were. Rael held her closer, still trying to keep her warm.

"Dara, what's wrong?" He asked worried.

The sounds were getting much worse, which made Rael become much more protective. He put his hand onto his sword and pulled it out. These noises and this area were all so new to him, he didn't understand what was going on at all. Which frustrates him a lot.
 
OOC: Sorry I haven't posted in a while, guys. x.x I've been busy with finals and all that junk. Can someone catch me up, please? o_o
 
"Sure I'll come. I'm usually out here alone but with some people I'd be easier to get through here. Oh and sorry for forgetting but I'm Alex Fendetta." He said his last name a bit quieter and was waiting for spit coming at his shoes. He put his hand in his pocket and fished around and pulled out some flint and steel. He light the torch again. "This will be easier to see the guards now." He slipped the flint and steel back in his pocket. "Any of you guys want to hold the Torch?" He asked no one in particular. He held the torch in his left hand and slipped off his bow and held it in his right.

The guardians of the king were coming and Dark could hear them. So he ran off, telling Rael and Dara to follow. Dara dragged Rael with her and they went looking for Dark. Rael was begining to hear the guardians so then he ran off in a different direction with Dara and they ended up runing into Dark and there they meet Alex. And that is pretty much it XD

If I am missing anything, then please let me know ^^; I wasn't reading Leader's and JBC Blank's.. Sorry D:
 
"Wait.....Weren't you just there? Apprently you dont know your way around here." Alex said holding back a laugh. "Here could you just hold this for a moment." He said and shoved the torch in the free hand of the guy that was dragging the girl.. Alex shifted the bow to his other hand and set an arrow on the string. The arrow head looked strange because the sides were cut into and had been taken out and curved. They could rip through any armor with ease. He pulled the bowstring back. "Hold it out, will you?" He asked the man he had given the torch.
 
Dark overheard the converstation quietly. He was getting annoyed that it took so long for them to react, meaning to run. Dark didn't know about the fighting skills of the others, but he had never fought, let alone held a sword. The other man that had introduced himself as Alex, had given the torch to Rael. Dark quickly asked if he could hold it, he would find the way easier with the light and that way, Rael could defend Dara more if he had both of his hands free. Dark himself had now a powerful weapon himself, not that he know how to fight with a burning torch, but it made him feel more secure. The orange, yellow fire, made him feel better and more at easy that light of the cold, blue flames came from the roofs. Sounds were getting louder. Dark was sure they had heard their little group. He inhaled deeply and then said softly: " My house is not that far away from here, probably 3 or 4 streets away." Dark counted. "If we run, we'll be there in 5 to 10 minutes, at least with this amount of people. And even better, if we leave now", we might keep ahead of them."
