Flare Posted June 18, 2012 Posted June 18, 2012 "GUYS! Are you being serious about letting her free!? Are you crazy!? Our mission was to take her captive, and to stop her thefts, not take these gifts for ourselves... although I admit, they are quite valuable... but we shouldn't. We should finish our task... if we let her free we have no guarantee that we'll actually get our items in return."
Masked Builder Posted June 18, 2012 Posted June 18, 2012 "The items wouldn't be for ourselves, they'd be given back to their respective houses."
Sandy Posted June 18, 2012 Author Posted June 18, 2012 And where would we meet to discuss with him?" "That can be easily arranged - just as long as you don't get the Town Watch involved. You may have been able to beat me, but Ulric is beyond even your league. He's my mentor, so trust me on this. Just take me to the Hovels without the watchmen noticing."
Masked Builder Posted June 18, 2012 Posted June 18, 2012 Alexis turns to her fellow quest mates. "Well guys, what do you want to do? I want to return the items to their houses. Though I'd expect we'd fail the quest."
K-Nut Posted June 18, 2012 Posted June 18, 2012 "We get the items and return them to their houses. Easy as that." Althior hated lying to his love, but that Medal could make him almost unstoppable.
Masked Builder Posted June 18, 2012 Posted June 18, 2012 "Alright, that's what I would like to do. I seem to recall that she said we had to capture her and return the items, half the quest isn't bad."
Sandy Posted June 18, 2012 Author Posted June 18, 2012 Violetta dares to smile a little. "I like your thinking, although I doubt Ulric will just hand you all the heirlooms. There's still the problem of us being surrounded by both watchmen and Ji Pei guards. The only way out without getting caught is up through the ceiling and over the rooftops. Any ideas how to get there? Your magical powers were useful in the battle, maybe they can help you outside of it as well..."

Alexis should go up first, than Benji, then Violetta, then I'll use my Garnet to make a ledge under me to lift me up and out. Sound good?"
Masked Builder Posted June 18, 2012 Posted June 18, 2012 "That sounds like it'd work Althior. Let's do it. You always were smart." She kisses him on the cheek. "See you at the top!"
K-Nut Posted June 18, 2012 Posted June 18, 2012 "That sounds like it'd work Althior. Let's do it. You always were smart." She kisses him on the cheek. "See you at the top!" He smiled at Alexis as he expended as much Ether as needed to use Wind on Alexis, Benji, and Violetta to get to the top and use Garnet to lift himself up to the top. He whispered to Alexis, "Bind her so she doesn't escape,"
Masked Builder Posted June 18, 2012 Posted June 18, 2012 Alexis summons Skorpios and has him grab Kayla with his pincers so she can't escape. "Let's go to the hovels."
Flare Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 (edited) "I still disagree with this, I don't think that the plan was for us to be giving Violetta back And if we're not even going to be getting all of the artefacts back then whats the point?" Benji whispers to Alexis: "What if this is a trap? If she's taking us to Ulric so that he will fight us, we'll lose..." Edited June 19, 2012 by Flare
Masked Builder Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 Alexis whispers back. "Well I could always send Mandy back to try to give them a message of where we're going. We'll try to get all of the items back. He should be ashamed of her like Kayla said."
K-Nut Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 Alexis whispers back. "Well I could always send Mandy back to try to give them a message of where we're going. We'll try to get all of the items back. He should be ashamed of her like Kayla said." "The thing is, she is Kayla."
Masked Builder Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 "I know, I just wanted to use a synonym rather than say Violetta."
Sandy Posted June 19, 2012 Author Posted June 19, 2012 Althior spent three ether to weave the drafts in the surrounding air to do his bidding, and lifted Violetta and his two party members silently up to the ceiling, where there was a hatch leading outside. The mage then spent one more ether to conjure a rock spire from the ground below his feet so that he could follow the others, but the ensuing rumble caught the attention of the guards outside. Captain Patricia and her watchmen rushed into the room only to see the party disappear through the hatch into the roof. "Unbelievable! I should never have trusted Heroica on anything!" Patricia huffed, and then turned to bark orders at her men. "After them, you hear?! They're trying to escape along the rooftops!" At the rooftop Alexis spent one ether to summon Skorpios to hold Violetta still. The Wolfgang burglar was still weak from the defeat, so she could not resist the clutch of the dark spirit. "You three would make lousy burglars. Silence is the key in being covert, and all you can think of is causing an earthquake?! I'd like to see you get us out of this mess, especially since you've bound me like this. Evoker, I don't think your scorpion can fly from rooftop to rooftop, can it?" There was a wide gap between the roof of the Ji Pei Palace and the surrounding housetops. Watchmen and the guards of the Ji Pei were starting to gather in the streets below, and it wouldn't be long before they'd manage to climb to the roof as well. What will the party do now?

Masked Builder Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 "Good job Althior, not sure why you want to use a garnet. Well we could always try Ocven. Though I've yet to try out this ruby... Who knows what my ruby summons will be."
K-Nut Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 Finally! Playing all those Batman stealth games comes in handy! "Alright, Alexis, give me Violetta's whip," As he grabbed the whip, he tied it around Violetta's hands. "Take that grand tonic and then summon Ocven." He paused, "Ocven can carry us all to the Hovels, right?" He took out his Smoke bomb, "As we take off, I throw this smoke Bomb, obscuring the sights of the watch and the Ji Pei," He thinks for a moment, then starts again, "Benji, I need a venom. If I can tie it to the smoke bomb," he rips off a part of his pants, "then we can make it poisonous gas, poisoning the guards and stopping them in their tracks. If we need to do it again, Alexis has a Smoke bomb, and we have more venom." He turns to Finnegan. "Take my hat," He puts it on Finnegan's head, "Once the guards get up, you run. They'll think you're me and they'll run after you, understood?" "Oh great! Now I'm part of this? I wanted to follow the rules for once!" "Where's the fun in that?" He laughs, "Go to the hall once you've lost them, we'll meet you there."
Masked Builder Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 "You're welcome." She says as he takes the whip. "I'd better get that back! I suppose he could yes, there are only four of us. Why do I need to take the tonic?" Alexis stares as he rips part of his pants off. "Great! Now I'm going to have to fix those!"
K-Nut Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 "You're welcome." She says as he takes the whip. "I'd better get that back! I suppose he could yes, there are only four of us. Why do I need to take the tonic?" Alexis stares as he rips part of his pants off. "Great! Now I'm going to have to fix those!" "The Hovels are on the other end of Eubric, and I'm not sure if you have much Ether you have left. What do you think I do in the library all the time, study maps!" As he starts to tie a knot with the part of his pants, he laughs at her remark, "What do you want? Fix the pants or get arrested?"
Masked Builder Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 "I believe I have three." Alexis sighs. "Fine, I'll fix the dumb pants when we get back."
Flare Posted June 20, 2012 Posted June 20, 2012 "Why'd we even listen to this blasted thief in the first place..."
Masked Builder Posted June 20, 2012 Posted June 20, 2012 Alexis summons Ocven, and pushes Violetta up on his back before climbing up herself. "When you two are done fooling around, climb on and let's go!"
K-Nut Posted June 20, 2012 Posted June 20, 2012 Althior climbs up on the white dragon's back. "Bad time to say that I'm scared of heights?" He grips the Dragon's scales firmly, holding on for dear life.
Masked Builder Posted June 20, 2012 Posted June 20, 2012 "You tell me this now?!" She says exasperated.
