King of theives

thorn smiled softly as her root shot forward the men ran forward her root shot forward piercing through on of the mans chest she then swung him side to side knocking others into the side winding them. the strongest men managed to get out the way but only just she had crippled most of them and they would not be getting up soon this gave thorn an advantage to take out the strongest of the men then deal with the weaker ones. picking up a sword again thorn raced forward slashing at the men in no skilled way just hopping the randomness would catch them off guard and let Thorn deal some damage. She was not so lucky this time her sword missed everyone and not it was there tune. thorn pushed past them as they began to attack they hit there mark and corsed thorn immense pain but she did not stop she needed Sinali and that is where she was going.

flame shot past as she ran down the hall skidding around corners hoping to lose the men she had no hope well this is hat she thought until her luck changed and in front of her was sinali against her own enemies "I could use some help!" she wheezed as she came up next to Sinali she hoped she would get what she needed of the girl with a one track mind at the moment.

Sinali didn't have much left to do apart from find the boss of the cartel and recover the lacrima. However, it was also a difficult task. The boss hadn't been anywhere in the facility so far. It also seemed the lacrima weren't active as she couldn't sense it. However, before she had a chance to look for anymore after taking down these twelve Thorn came rushing in asking for help. With her came 5 of the swordsman and nine more mages. There were quite a lot of enemies it seemed.

It seemed that the Garm were not present either. Had they been destroyed? No, she could still sense them. It was time to even up the odds she felt. She whistled and with another howl the garm came charging up and leapt at the five swordsman easily tearing them apart before they had a chance to react. A couple of the garm fell during the result and the mages blasted apart a few reducing their number to eight. Still, it was now 10 on 9 if you included Sinali and Thorn.

"Thorn. You head off ahead and try to find the boss." Sinali ordered and then charged in. As she did the mages created a wall of fire preventing her getting up close. It was an annoyance to say the least and she didn't have any real magic power to get through it. THe garm also couldn't get close.

thorn cursed slightly to loud backing up from the blazing hot flames her eyes squinted and her arm shot up in an attempt to cover her face. Thorn glances at sinali out the corner of her eye before throwing tiny objects through the fire so small they where able to get through without two much damage "well as that plan went a bit on the back bench how about I cover you and you do something ever silly, stupid or plain brilliant!" she stated she knew she would be punished for that in the future but she did not really care right then.

Thorn closed her eyes and reached out to the two objects she had thrown no one had noticed them fly straight past. thorn smiled as she emagened the plants grow into deadly flowers as they blossomed black thick smoke filled the air quickly this coursed the fire mages to mutter in concern they could not see this is what thorn wanted and soon the smog would start to make them choke and splutter this might give sinai enough time to figure out something.

thorn looked about trying to figure out her next move at the same time trying not to get to close to the flames.

The smoke that Thorn used was very useful. It disorientated the mage's briefly and caused them to cough and choke weakening their fire barrier significantly. However, it would still set things on fire which was quite perfect in her mind. She grabbed some of the dead bodies near her and begun flinging them through the fire barrier. They were quite moist so didn't catch fire that well. Well, the bodies didn't. There clothing did though. So what in essence ended up going into the poison cloud were flaming bodies. The first few were merely to light up the smoke a bit allowing her to see shadows and thus identify where the bodies were. Then she began to get more accurate.

However, it seemed the mage's were able to avoid the flaming bodies. Almost as if they could sense them coming. Perhaps due to the fact they were on fire. Sinali considered the next plan and then suddenly leapt at an angle upwards with full might. The ground below her cracked slightly, but the ceiling she hit she went straight through. As soon as she was through she struck the ground hard and caused it to break. The floor began to crumble and fall, straight onto the guards below. Hopefully, due to the poison smoke and the flaming bodies preventing movement it would hit. Plus the garm were covering their retreat so there was little area to escape. Hopefully, Thorn would be able to survive it. If she didn't though she wasn't worthy of serving Sinali.

As the floor crumbled Sinali came down into the middle of the poison cloud. Her sensory allowed her to detect that four of the mage's had been knocked unconcious, but five still remained. Judging by their magic power fluctuation they had been hit quite heavily. Sinali quickly lashed out with her sword trying to strike at one of them and heard the satisfying sound of flesh rending. Another one that had fallen.

Thorn smirked softly her eyes drifted softly to Sinali as she watch her through the dead body's "throwing dead body's nice touch!" she stated lightly as she watched where they where landing and started to see shadows. Thorn was confused by this as in the past even fire could not be seen over a arm distance away she wondered if something was wrong with her magic.

Thorn swore when she sore Sinali jumping up and went right through the roof Thorn went down bringing her arm up covering her face as the roof came fulling down and she got hit. Thorn winced as she tested her body for the damage and she found she had a broken arm and ribs these made it difficult to breath she had browsing all over her body but she managed to stand back up and look over to where Sinali had come back through the ceiling her eyes slowly adjusted to the cloud of dust that had come down and smiled softly as she noticed the fire was not gone.

Thorn smirked softly gripping her staff with her good arm she slowly made her way to Sinali "A bit of warning next time!" she stated angrily through gritted teeth her eyes landed on the slavers and smirked "four against two how is this fare" she asked lightly tilting her head as she thrust the staff forward towards a slavers throat crushing it coursing the slaver to chock and suffocate. Thorn smiled down at the slaver as she watched him die from lack of air.

Sinali was about to intervene to help Thorn when suddenly out of nowhere her arm fell to the floor sliced off. She stared at it for a moment and turned to see a man in white robes draped in gold. In one hand he wielded as scimitar. He made a gesture with his hand and suddenly Sinali's other arm fell off as he called back the scimitar he had telekinetically moved to slice off her first arm. In an instant he had disarmed her...literally. She stared at him and walked forward towards him.

"The king of theives has come out to play." Sinali said and then looked at her arms as they slowly rose up next to her. "Looks like its not his day." She said and ran leapt forward towards him. As she did so suddenly he let out a huge wave of telekinesis and she was sent hurling back. With a free hand she gestured to some of the garm and suddenly they dashed towards the mage. They were instantly sliced apart, but in that brief moment Sinali had recovered and ran forward. However, her arms were nowhere to be seen.

When he threw out another wave of telekinesis she was thrown back but then suddenly he was struck from behind with both of her arms. She'd used the garm and her own movement to hide the movement of the arms. She was highly skilled at using her dismembered limbs to her advantage. Remote control was very useful.

The remaining four garm stayed with Thorn and began to help her bring down the men. There were still a few tough ones. However, between Thorn and four garm they should fall.

Thorn smirked softly as she spat a bit of her own blood to the floor this was not a wurry to thorn as long as she did not continue to cough any more up. Thorn moved her grip over her staff slightly she was against fire mages something she hated and was quite week against what made it worse was Sinali could no longer help her as she had the man they where after taking her on. Thorn watched the men infrount of her with intense eyes never letting them out of her vision.

[color=blue"Ow look lads this will be easy we are left with the young ones pet!"[/color] One of the slavers said and thorn stood up straight her head tilted slightly [color=violet]"I will make you pay for that comment I am no pet!" she stated softly swinging her staff around aiming for the mans head. Thorn missed as the man moved back avoiding the strike and then through a fire ball at her. Thorn covered her face as she swore the fire ball coursed thorns arms to be burned.

Thorn curse softly as she had to step back as the garm shot forward attacking the man that had shot the fire bull at Thorn it toke all four of them to take him down then it tock them a while to kill him thorn looked up at the remaining men and smirked softly "you ready to die?" she asked smirking more her eyes darkened as she thought of the many ways she could kill them.

The king of theives rose up using his telekinesis and his blades began to orbit him and with one hand he held her arms in place preventing their use. His focus was on his blade defense and on holding back the arms which left her with just her body. Normally, her magic would be enough to overcome her opponents, but she had very little magic power left. Getting close enough to do any damage with the blades there would be difficult. She whistled calling the two garm that had been blasted back earlier to her. It seemed she would be relying on these abominations more and more today. It was not a bad thing. In her mind they were adorable and true embodiments of twisted perfection.

She charged forward the garms charging along side her. One garm leapt and was instantly butchered by the blades, but the other managed to get a bite onto the man's leg breaking his concentration ever so slightly. That was enough to free up one of her arms, but this time rather than going for a punch it grabbed hold of one of the man's chains and pulled it sharply against his throat beginning to choke him. His concentration was broken further as he tried to struggle to get it off. He couldn't control the blades. That was her opening. With a huge powerful leap she struck him head first in the solar plexus knocking the wind out of him. That was enough for her other arm to get up behind him and strike him in the back. Choked, headbutted and punched. The three combination were almost too much, but he managed to let off a final flare of telekinesis blasting them off. He was gasping for breath, but wasn't dying yet.

That was when Sinali ended it with a spell. Her eye rapidly expanded and a huge beam of energy shaped like the savage skull emblem shot out of it hitting the man in the chest where his heart would be. It burned about halfway through, but not enough to kill. That was when the second blast hit him and burned the savage skull emblem clean through him. "Beati Mortui king of theives."

thorn smiled softly looking down at the injuries sighing softly looking back up at the slavers her eyes went dark "I would run if i was you" she said hissing her words tilting her head thorn stepped forward her hand turned wooden and she smirked. The slavers started to run but Thorn was not going to let them flee. Once the slavers was ten feet away she shot her root forward parsing the one on the left through the chest making the root go through him and turned the root back around and before the slaver could even scream thorn forced the root through his heart killing them both in an instant up when she brought the root back around she sighed seeing them both stuck there.

Thorn looked at sinali "can i have a hand please!" she asked softly pointing with her spear hand to the slavers on her rooted arm. Thorn smiled and walked over to Sinali "did that make you feel better?" she asked looking down at the king shaking her head "well his room is the next one on the right lets finish this job!" She said looking at Sinali trying to see what was going through her mind she half wished Sinali was a plant so Thorn could understand Sinali at points.

Thorn smiled lightly she was thankful the job was almost over and she was going to be able to deal with the damage she sustained thorn was shore someone within the guild could help with that.

Sinali took a deep breath and thought about the day as she sent her still detached arms to tear the dead people off of Thorn. It seemed that the job was almost over. However, the job had almost failed on multiple occasions. Those two rune knights had almost brought them down. She'd been forced to bring out the garm and on top of that she had lost Perry. It had not been a good day. She stamped down heavily on the king of thieves' head crushing it entirely. He had been the cause of Perry's death, if indirectly.


She walked into the room with the large crate of lacrima. With a swift kick she smashed open the lock on the lacrima crate. The side flopped open and a bunch of lacrima fell out. She looked at them for a moment. All of them were charged with magic power. Fortunately, none were volatile varieties. Well, that wasn't true. There were some volatile ones, but they were inside seperate boxes within the crate to prevent them detonating and taking out all the others. One of her arms picked up a seemingly random lacrima and held it next to Sinali. Her body began to glow brightly and then all the wounds she had received that day were healed. She pointed a second lacrima towards thorn and she too was healed.

Without so much as a word she began to set up seemingly identical lacrima around the large crate and beckoned Thorn over. As soon as she stepped in the circle there was a bright flash and they appeared inside the client's home. "Here are your lacrima." Sinali said with a smile. "Sorry about using some of them, but it was the safest and quickest way to get here."
