(Mission) Rumble Rumble. RUMBLE! (Amber and Ayeseru)

Battered and bruised, a wizard crawled out of the docks, panting. His eyes wearily gazed up as he half-limply dragged himself away from the crowd of people who were fighting, "Th-They just won't stop." The young wizard passed out from exhaustion and injuries. Amber, the newly ranked-up C-class mage without a guild found herself staring at the large dust cloud that was the people who were all fighting. Merchants and Wizards and Sailors alike were getting their faces smashed in with attacks, using barrels for cover, magic guns, and other various holder-type things to hold one another off. Explosive lacrima appeared to go off at random intervals. "Wow, these guys are really mad!" Amber would comment.

While she stood and watched, she had received word from the streets that another mage was coming to assist her endeavors with putting down the fighting, well it actually went more like, "I hear these two wizards are gonna stop the whole riot soon." Amber, of course figured she was one of the great wizards they spoke of, and thusly awaited the person who was going to show up as well. For this mission, Amber was clad in a long white shirt, with yellow leg-warmers that went up to her thighs, along with a pair of light brown sneakers with yellow laces. Of course, she was decorated for battle, wearing a large numerage of rings, as well as a pocket watch adorning her hair like a decorative hair corsage. This all made up for a relatively grand appearance for a little girl, only 8 years of age.

Standing where she watched, she would get weird looks from the people around her, all rather inquisitive. Most asked why she was watching the fight, others spoke to her more as, is that girl alone? How sad. Amber of course was only getting mentally prepared, strategizing what she was going to do. Amber wanted to outshine the other mage who was said to arrive soon, as this was her first job she had intended to complete. Lo, she knew she'd probably need to let the guy get a few shots in, so she started making sure her plan left some openings for the other guy to fill.

Rudely awakened by Peterus, Ayeseru shot awake from his deep sleep. "What is it now, you miserable wolf?" Ayeseru said not realizing exactly WHAT he said, being groggy. "Oh, shut up you idiot. I cannot believe you forgot about what the letter that the guild received which asked to help at a fight in the Hargeon docks. YOU said that you'd take on the mission with another mage who wasn't in the guild." Ayeseru blinked and yawned a few times before fully understanding what Peterus had just told him, before his eyes widened at the realization.

"Wait... Are you telling me that it's today, and that I'm late?!" "Exactly." Ayeseru had a fearful look on his face - what was happening? Was his partner there? Was he being waited upon? Was his partner okay? How badly has the fight gotten? These were all questions that were running through Ayeseru's head. He quickly got dressed, grabbed his scythe, grabbed Peterus and ran out of the guild. He knew which direction Hargeon Town was in, so he wouldn't need to trouble himself with a train. On his way out, he noticed just how quiet everything was. It would almost seem as though Eternum was loosing members.

However, Ayeseru couldn't afford to trouble himself with more worries than what were already presented to him. Though Hargeon Town was not far away from the guild, it would still take him at least a couple of hours for him to reach by going through his shadow form, meaning he had to Shadow Step while holding his scythe on his back and Peterus all the way to Hargeon Town. The trip took him a mere five minutes, though exhausted him in the process. He dropped Peterus and got to his knees as sweat dripped from his face and harsh breathing. "Tch... Even I must admit you're getting better." Though Peterus did love and looked up to Ayeseru a lot, he would never show it or admit it. That was one of the few times Peterus would even praise his master.

"How unusual of you, Peterus. Getting soft, are we?" Ayeseru smirked and laughed. "Now then... We should be getting to the docks, the fighting there has probably gotten extremely chaotic by now." Being a dragon slayer, Ayeseru was able to recover very quickly from small things as traveling with Shadow Step, though it would exhaust him greatly if he did not take small breaks in between. He traveled with Peterus silently to the docks, not uttering a word. The way he was able to tell they had reached the docks was by the people piled around the steps to the docks.

He pushed his way through, stating he was one of the mages to put an end to the rumble, which only just barely let him through. As he got to the steps that would lead down to the docks, he gazed upon the chaotic rumble that was occurring before him. He couldn't imagine what would be the cause of all of the chaos, till he saw an explosive lacrima go off. Gah... I really hope it doesn't have to do with the fact that all the lacrima has been delayed...

It took him moments, but what struck out to him the most was the little girl that was standing right next to him. She seemed very young, and such a place was not suitable for little children. He crouched down to the girl and spoke to her. "Hey... Little girl, this isn't a place where you should be... I'm terribly sorry, but I'll have to ask you to please stand back where you can be safe." He was very worried of the girl. Seeing such things at a young age wouldn't be appropriate for her.

*As a note, she preemptively assailed whoever she was to fight. Monster Dice was who she attacked, attack dice was the assault I'd choose, block dice was their reaction*

As the people in the massive brawl would be tossed up and over one another the large cloud of combat, Amber would watch with an excited smile. However, she waited, with bated breath, wondering where the mage who was going to assist her with quelling the combat was located. For a few more minutes she would wait, before a person who gave a decent magical signature showed up. This person was about even with Amber herself, though he seemed to not pay attention to her magical aura, and more attention was directed into her appearance. Amber would grin at his comment about her needing to stand back, "You're my partner in this? Took you long enough, I've watched a few sailors go down already, so we should probably get fighting."

Amber let the context clues fill the gentleman in on the situation as Amber would start towards the crowd of combating mages, merchants, and sailors. "I'll hurry up and take down the merchants, you deal with the others," Amber would say. She would charge at the crowd after saying that, and she would jump over the crowd, finding within her immediate vision a gentleman who was presently wearing a musketeer-like outfit of sorts. "Natural Element - Water!" she would say. Amber was an advanced elemental mage who could make other elemental mages look like chumps. This was immediately apparent, as the sea around the docks began to swirl and she would funnel out a grand amount of water, and she would wave her hand out wards and point her palm at the gentleman, as a large wave would wipe away a large numerage of people from the edges, however the Merchant who was in musketeer clothing was out of the way, and had spotted his new enemy. Amber would land, as a circle of combat formed around them, people present very wary of her presence.

"So, are you the merchant leader?" Amber would ask the man. The merchants' ring leader would laugh as he would requip a pistol, pointing it at Amber, "A little girl like you should have stayed at home and played with your little dollies."

Though it took him several moments, he began to notice a strange aura being emitted from the girl. Well, not exactly, the aura he felt was from a few set of rings she wielded. Heh... Well, wouldn't want her to get harmed regardless. He jumped down into the chaos as the young girl confronted what seemed to be a leader of some sort, presumably the merchants seeing as they were crowding around him. He taunted the girl which was a mistake in Ayeseru's eyes, so he'd let the young wizard take care of herself unless she requires help.

Instead, he focused on the leaders little friends that were crowding around him, mere merchants. Though they were mere civilians, they were determined to protect their leader. A very noble act indeed, though that would be what would defeat them. Hmm... Well, I cannot kill them... Seeing such violent killing would be bad for the girl. I suppose I must merely knock them out with as little violence as possible, so... Ayeseru took out his scythe, though wasn't going to use its sharp part most of the time. He was going to strike mostly with his handle, dealing blunt damage and not killing the civilians in the process.

He spun his scythe so his handle would be on top, rather than the blade part of the scythe. Though he had to be careful, one wrong move and he'd pierce himself, or any of the people around him could be smart enough to drive the scythe into him. Though, no one seemed to notice him through the chaos, so his time to strike was then. He shadow stepped to a merchant and hit his head hard with his handle, soon being followed by two other merchants. Ayeseru counted how many merchants were near the ringleader, in total he counted ten including the three he had just knocked out.

The merchants almost instantly noticed that three of their comrades had fallen, though they couldn't see who caused it as Ayeseru turned into a shadow before his figure was noticed. He had to, however, be careful. It would be strange to see a lurking shadow that belonged to no one, that would cause more panic and would merely draw attention to him. He would remain in his shadow form for a little while after before deciding to strike once more.

(Ignore the strong dice. Wouldn't be logical if there were two ring leaders.)
(Took out three merchants with a surprise attack)

-As a note, God's Hand Magic has a stipulation that all of Amber's spells do not appear in any way to come from the rings. It looks caster-type.-

Amber would notice that the merchant was mocking her, with his laughter, telling her that she should go home and play with dolls. She would giggle, "Silly merchant. All my dolls are broken." Amber's eyes lit up with magical aura a bit as a blue magic circle would appear around her, in a massive area. The circle's coloration would suddenly attain a glossiness likened to a mirror of sapphire, and would fade out again. Amber had just cast her spell, Level Up, to buff her water spell. "I'll let you say hello to them in the hospital when I'm done playing with you," she would finish, a genuine smile etched on her face.

You see, Amber didn't like to be mocked as if she was a standard little girl who played around. She was serious business and did work to survive, apparently not having parents around. Amber could only laugh at the folly of some odd gentleman who could succeed in life without need for hardcore work. He had no opinion in her mind, and speaking his mind with so little respect... well Amber was going to make sure he'd have to work to pay off the medical expenses for what he said.

Amber would raise water from around the docks, now in a much more massive quantity than before, giant towering, snake-like funnels. Then she would start sending down waves and waves of water in whirling, ripping, and glowing currents. The man took two shots at them and managed to take one down, but they would slam into him one by one, dealing a great deal of damage overall. However the merchant managed to avoid the first of four remaining currents, thusly only taking three B-rank attacks, which totals to equivalent of 6 C-Ranks. Amber would pant a bit, exerting quite a bit of power by doing that, but she wasn't done yet.

However, in this moment of quiet, the man took two more shots at Amber. Amber took the first shot to the chest, and fell on her ass, and formed a glowing bubble of whirling, ripping water currents around her to stop the second magic bullet.

Ayeseru watched on as the young mage had begun her work and smiked. Though she was young, she caused quite some damage on the ringleader, though somehow he was able to shake it off and shoot the girl twice. Only a single hit landed on her, though it worried Ayeseru like anyone else. She was a very tough kid, though regardless, she is still a child. Furthermore, she was his partner. Ayeseru was beginning to adapt to the qualities of a legal, "good" mage, which would worry him about her regardless of her age.

All of the remaining merchants were also stunned to see such a young female mage not only going toe to toe with their leader, but beating him also! However, with all of the gawking Ayeseru was doing he failed to realize he did not appear to be the shadow of anyone, or anything. He was out in the blazing sun, seeming like a pool of shadows. This would lead to one of the merchants noticing him, and shouting out to the other six merchants that were remaining. Crap, they see me! I suppose now I must come out to them.

Ayeseru solidified himself only to find a pitchfork right next to his face, nearly driven through his skull. Luckily for him, the intimidated merchant was shaking through fear, causing his aim to be terrible. Though, another merchant with a pitchfork had also tried to drive it through Ayeseru's skull, of course, the merchant was intimidated as well and shaky, also just narrowly missing Ayeseru's skull. That was just about as much luck as he had with the intimidated merchants. Angry, Ayeseru took his scythe and smacked both of the merchants with the handle, knocking them out cold.

The remaining five and well merchants all charged together, sending out a volley of attacks. Carelessly, Ayeseru let himself be hit in the groin by a merchant with a spade, though Ayeseru returned the favor and punched the man in the face, and due to his dragon slayer strength he was able to knock him out instantly. Expecting several more attacks, Ayeseru turned himself into a shadow to evade the other merchants attacks. Ayeseru giggled as they attempted to harm him while he was in his shadow state.

They retreated in fear, seeing as their attacks were having no effect, which led to Ayeseru resuming to his solid, human form. However, he had not seen another merchant who had a hammer in arm and struck Ayeseru's back with it.

*First dice was the monster dice, Amber was ambushed. Second dice was the attacks of the ambush. Third dice was Amber's dodge. Fourth dice was merchant ringleader's rocket attack (poor guy). Fifth dice was Amber's three allotted dodges on that. Sixth dice was Amber's overall field wrecking assault that aimed for every conscious combatant on the field. Seventh dice was their hope for salvation. It failed them.*

Amber was preparing for a counterattack, when all of a sudden, a barrage of damage would begin raining down upon Amber as she would move her barrier. Amber would be caught off guard, as many elements of magic would converge on her and explode. Amber was tossed like a rag doll and bounced a couple of times before she rolled to a halt. "Did we get her?" asked one of the wizards who assailed her, "Come on, man. No matter how powerful a mage, a little girl is just a little girl in the end."

Amber would let out a great amount of air, a slight amount of whimpering was heard. One of the merchants in the accompanying group would notice she was getting up, "D-Demon!" The whole squad fired guns upon her, only to have their hopes dashed as a wall of water would intercept the firing line. "Ouchies. Owwie. Ow," she would mutter as she would walk menacingly towards the groups.

Then she would notice that the Merchant ring leader was Requipping. He was trading out a pistol for... a very large instrument. Amber knew she was done for if she was hit by that, so she started to run. Amber would charge at the crowd of people who were interrupting the match. The ringleader, dazed and angry from the shock of being hit with water, paid no mind to anyone but, Amber and trailed her until she made a quick stop to run right at him instead.

Upon that he would fire directly at her, "Die you little bitch!" Amber would gracefully sidestep just aside the rocket launchers projectile, and it flew straight into the crowd of jerks who ruined a perfectly one-sided match. And they got blown up so bad, all of the merchants in that group were blown away easily and knocked out by the explosion, and the wizards were damaged heavily. The Merchant Ringleader was shocked, all of a sudden, realizing what he had done, and Amber took advantage of that moment, and a great deal of water formed a blanket over the battlefield, and tendrils of water would rain in rapid fire, tearing apart the battlefield. Yet only two in every five actually hit. Amber didn't care though, she'd finished off the wizards, and dealt a large deal of damage to the Ringleader.

Then her spell was released from the water, "Oh just my luck. I won but it started to rain..." For some reason the water in the sky only fell as rain. The Merchant Ringleader toppled to a knee, "D-Damn it..." He muttered a few more words of cursing before he fell over. Amber would take a deep breath and sit down for a moment, while she had the chance.

As Ayeseru was occupied with his own battle, he failed to notice the amount of new opponents that had just appeared. The signal to him was the leader shooting a rocket launcher, hitting his own men and other mages as he missed the little girl. He smirked as she defeated the ringleader, and then focused on his own opponents. Though there were not many left, they were being a nuisance to him, and so he was annoyed. He needed to put an end to them as soon as possible so he would be able to stop the mage leader.

However, as he was looking on to see what was happening with the girl, he failed to realize till after they were near him that the remaining four merchants were NOT happy. Seeing their leader and other comrades fall was horrific to them, causing them to go in a state of rage. Two of the merchants were charging towards Ayeseru, who with his dragon-like reflexes managed to shadow step out of the way before he was pierced with two pitchforks aiming at him at a high speed. He was getting sick of it, and so casted his Dark Fist spell.

That was mistake number one. Mistake number two would be his failure of realizing where exactly were the other two merchants he had been battling, which, in fact were right behind him, and they did NOT look pleased as they were trying to drive their hammers onto Ayeseru's skull. Again, his dragon-like reflexes saved him and so he was able to shadow step away from his foes. At this point, Ayeseru was not pleased at all. Now that he let the merchants dish out their failed strikes, it was his turn to do damage.

As he turned into his shadow form, he went straight to the merchants with the pitch forks working together. They stood their ground, not because of bravery, but because of fear. Ayeseru would then use his shadow to leap into the air, and JUST before his shadow would land on them, he solidified himself and smashed the face of one of the merchants with his Dark Fist, and kneed the other again in the face. I seem to like striking faces very much for some reason... I wonder why that would possibly be the case. In his mind, it all sounded sarcastic.

Eight were taken down, two were left. Seeing what had just happened to their comrades right before their eyes put the remaining merchants in a frozen state. Ayeseru calmly walked to them, with a very wicked and sadistic smile. One of the merchants couldn't stand seeing Ayeseru and ran off, though the other was still frozen. As he approached the merchant more and more, the expression on his face grew more sinister and evil. Not giving the merchant much time to react, Ayeseru used his speed, dragon slayer strength AND spell strength to strike the merchants groin, sending him flying into the air, and then falling with a loud thump noise.

One remained. Ayeseru yawned as he watched the coward merchant and his attempts to flee, though that did him no good. Ayeseru shadow stepped in front of the merchant and quickly knocked him out with a single strike. Ayeseru would then return to the side of his temporary ally. "Well then, that is taken care of. Do you require any assistance?"

*First dice, were who Amber was about to beat up. Second dice was her attack, the third was the enemies' block. Fourth was enemies' attacks, fifth was Amber's block.*

Amber would take a deep breath as she noticed her partner was ready to continue. Amber had managed to get enough calm to rest herself just a bit. She was ready to tap into her proportionately large magic pool once more, to start wreaking havoc. "If you feel like it, but I'm still putting down the mook merchants," she would say as she would note several merchants were about to take her on. She would look up at the raining water from the sky. "First a smokescreen," she would say. She would take a stance and a magic circle would form under her, as she would form a large amount of fire into a ball, as it would jet out of the magic circle. She would force it upwards into the raining water, and the water would evaporate on the fire, forming a mist. The area was now obscured with a fog, and the bright fire that was left was slammed into itself to heat the air around it.

Of course she would then move around while the area was obscured, her tiny body being hidden well. She figured this would give her ally more stealth as well. She would snap her fingers as another magic circle formed a circle around her and more fog would obscure her, making her invisible. Amber would then have snuck up behind the relatively large group of merchants, and formed a large item made of ice, it appeared to be a boulder of sorts, and she would fling it at them. While most evaded her large rock she managed to peg one. They would suddenly fire at her only hear a very satisfying pinging noise and then a shattering as the waves of bullets were stopped by small walls of ice. "You cannot fight me, you are too weak," she would tell them. She would raise a hand allowing her shadow to be seen as a demonic figure of sorts, and she would form a large club, and jumped in swinging at the lot of them. She would hit one and knock them out, but the club shattered. She would stand as the thick fog enveloped her, the merchants freaking out.

Ayeseru sighed deeply as his partner went on to take on the remaining merchants that were in sight. His final targets needed to be finished off before he could continue in his search of the leader of the mages. He's bound to be somewhere since his lacrima were no delivered. This time, the targets were upgraded from mere merchants to mages that released a reasonable amount of magical powers. They would be a challenge indeed, though nothing Ayeseru could not handle. He was thinking of calling in Peterus soon to give him an easier time.

He underestimated his foes, letting them attack first. Each mage appeared to have a different magic type, but they were all make magic. There were five mages in total, however, they were wounded by his young partners attack previously, which is what led to Ayeseru underestimating them. They attacked individually, an interesting tactic considering the situation, and not really an effective one at that. It started with a Fire-Make mage creating a simple blade made out of flames. The attack was extremely easy to see coming, meaning Ayeseru had no problem at all dodging it.

Next came two Wind-Make users. One of them created a bird made out of wind, while the other created a throwing spear. The spear was thrown at the bird who would then catch it in midair. The bird was fast, too. If Ayeseru would be hit by any of those, it would be trouble. Luckily for him, however, his shadow form travel was faster than any of the mages attacks. He was able to not easily, but evade the spells that were being handed to him. All of that, however, seemed to be their plan. The remaining two mages were standing right where he was traveling to.

The two mages were Water-Make users, that created sharks made out of water. While Ayeseru was able to dodge most of the blow, one of the sharks took a clomp of his right arm, though it wasn't ripped off or too badly injured. This, however, angered him. His Dark Fist was gone, but he didn't care. "Shifting Shadows." he muttered under his breath. Shadows began to surround his body, not really doing anything, but cloaking his limbs. He charged to one of the Water users and transformed his left arm into a large battle hammer, to send him flying into the air, soon followed by Ayeseru leaping up and using his head to slam the mage down as it transformed into a polearm.

He took a breath, and with maniacal eyes turned around and faced the mages. "Now then... Who is next?"

*Enemies, Enemy attack, Amber's block, Amber's attack, Enemy block. This round was sadness*

It would be just Amber's luck that she would be attacked by such large numbers after making the field so in her favor. But more mages had showed up to ruin her day. A large barrage of elemental spells would fly right at Amber. She'd put a series of shields up, and attempt to block them all, but the barriers were broken at the last spell, and she was knocked backwards into the sea. She would look skywards and turn her body around as she would brace herself by covering herself in a thick layer of ice and look like a miniature iceberg as she would splash very satisfyingly into the water. Amber would let the top layer of ice break as she would sit and rest herself, holding back tears. "I'm a big girl, I can beat up some stupid-face mages," she would tell herself.

Taking a deep breath, and counting to ten, she would get a few moments of reprieve. "I'm okay. I'll use that," she would say, looking upwards at the misty area. She would jump off her ice, it breaking from the impact, and then make a pillar of ice that launched her upwards really high. Like, she was impressively high up in the air. Amber would then close her fists and waved her hands, allowing two magic circles to form behind her. One was blue one was red. They would then collide into an odd purple colored magic circle, "When I merge water and fire, I have water with the properties of fire. Something that can destroy anything it touches. Fluid, destructive... I call forth the power of the Devil's Nectar!" She would then have a large cloud consistent of purple bubbles.

Amber would then wave her hands as the bubbles would freeze over and form for her, a pair of clumsy wings. She would descend down into the mist and then begin to pummel the mages. However, they were unfazed as they had a freaking barrier mage amongst them! Amber would immediately become stressed. She was about ready to show her skills as the bubbles of frozen purple substance would continue pounding on the barrier before popping and spilling purple liquid onto the docks devouring the wood, and forming more bubbles. Amber now had two clouds.
