The League: Bloodlines ((Started/Closed))

[Dragon_of_red]

Plain walked into the temple, and wandered around. He wasn't particularly sure where he was going to go, but he had nothing but time to kill until people showed up. The temple was always a nice place to be... The sick gathered here and he did what he could to the injured ones. Others however he needed to leave to better trained doctors. Or let God try and cure them, it's all the same to him.

He wandered and said hi to everyone walking past.

.
Titus held his ground against the strange local.
This light is unnatural, it somehow stopped me
" We came, We saw , We conquered. Be glad you are serving the empire, runt " Titus said. His shield expanded, more red liquid flowing up and down, creating a large rectangle.
I hate bleeding. I should have gotten my shield and sword.
" Charge at me, Judean "

Contristo let the draconian woman's words sink in and register with the evidence found at the scene. He allowed himself a smug chuckle as the story lined up perfectly with his conclusion, it was a second later that he came to regret his haste. Pain shot from his lungs and resonated through his body at the action.

I'm exhausted

The ringing of combat between the Roman soldier and some freedom fighter hung in the air as the silence between the dragon and man continued.

" Interesting, can you revert back to something more human? " Contristo queried. He had seen how powerful the beast was in this form, but he had also seen it beaten and bruised by soldiers as a human. His safest bet was to speak to her on equal ground.

"Unfortunately i don't know how to. But i also fear what will happen to myself if i do change back." Matrion said with a tint of pain lying under her voice and gesturing to the wing. "My best guess is that I'll change back when i run out of energy. On another note, I wonder how hard these scales are?"

 

[Dragon_of_red]

<spoiler=OOC>Oh balls I didn't respond to this?! I was waiting on you... FML...

"Hello" he simply stated and continued walking. He took a few steps and stopped dead, "Oh, its you" he said with a smile and turned back, "I someone figured you would be the first one to show up here." he continued talking, "Is anyone else here? Or do you want to just start helping like now?" he asked her, he had a plan for her to help him out in his plan, but it was easier to tell the entire group at once, though he knew she liked to work alone.

Cloud Runner was distressed again at the sign of Contristo's pain. "Master! Please don't push yourself. Perhaps we should take her to see that man." Cloud Runner had yet to meet the person named Plain, like most of the other Exorcists, but she had heard quite a bit about him from Contristo. It was definitely possible that he would know something to help the dragon.

"After all, you did get that letter anyways."

Contristo sunk his hand into one of the pockets lining the thick cloths draped over and around his arm. His eyes remained glued to the beast standing before him, searching for signs of betrayal, while his ears remained focused on the clashes of combat going on in the background. After the brief exploration of his attire he withdrew a rolled piece of parchment.

" I know of a man that may be able to aid you, just be aware if this Edling were to take over again. That tear will be in your throat. "

Mortis lifted himself up with the aid of Cloud Runner, the girl had extraordinary strength for a child. He gave one final look at the Roman in armed battle with a man wielding shards of light as he motioned the Dragon to follow him.

" All roads lead to rome... "

"I'll try to stay in control, if it happens, i'll accept my fate." And Matrion got up, this was no easy feat considering how large and un-adjusted to the body she was.

she was ready to follow Contristo at a moments notice.

 

[Dragon_of_red]

Plain sighed, "Dammit, oh well, you are lucky number one, so you get to choose who you get to follow." He pulled out a small scrap of paper, with 3 names written on it. "There are 3 people we think might be causing the deaths and suffering. Since you got here first, you get to choose which one you get close to" He said with a smile, but it quickly faded as he added in the final part "Kill them if needed" he whispered to her, making sure others didn't over hear.

He showed her the paper. The first had a man named Damien, followed by a short description of his position. "The councils most influential memeber, always choosing the option of the greater good, to sacrifice others to benefit the kingdom"
The second was a man named Nero, "The emperors own son"
The final one was only his alias, Shadow. "The emperors assassin. The one he pays to slaughter people, usually from Damien's words."

"Pick which one you want, I don't really mind" he said warmly to her, even though they were discussing the possible death of a royal member.

Spoiler: ooc

Rome had an emperor and then a council under him if i'm correct.

 

[Dragon_of_red]

<spoiler=Cheers>Thanks, Shall edit that. Emperors act like Kings right? So they have like a son/daughter to take over?

The Trio proceeded to make their way to Rome. [Contristo, Cloud Runner and Matrion.] during one of the nights, Matrion changed back to her self, leaving an open wound on her back. when they arrived at Rome, she stayed in an inn at the city to keep out of sight. meanwhile, Contristo and Cloud Runner went in search for Plain.

Spoiler: ooc

Yes, there is a royal bloodline if that's what you're asking.

 

[Dragon_of_red]

Plain laughed, "I should have guessed that you wanted the assassin.". He looked at the names, "I assume you want to work alone too? Since that seems like how you would want to handle this guy." he continued, asking her the question.

Shadow glanced at the person he was set to murder this time. He didn't know why this man needed to die, all he knew was that he had to die, and the money was necessary. He jumped out of the darkness, digging a blade into the mans neck. Apparently he didn't even see it coming. He cleaned the blade on the mans coat and walked away as if nothing had happened.

After the fight he had attempted to take part in, Garerus decided to take a quick nap, still clutching the unread note in his hand. When he woke up some time later, he decided to read the note, and realized he had messed up. The note was from the boss, and he was supposed to be in Rome a long time ago. Cursing under his breath, he quickly got up and looked around, seeing if any horses were nearby. He quickly hopped on a suitable looking one, pushing the owner off, and rode off toward the city he had left earlier that month.

His horse was tired when he had made it, because he hadn't stopped since. He left it outside the city and quickly strode in, searching for signs of Plain. He could spot people on crowds fairly easily, but Rome was a busy place. He set off to find the boss, before he was in too much trouble.
