The usual sounds of the forest filled the air, the cawing, chirping, ridiculous screaming from a young teenager, yep, normal day. Enizo leaped from tree branch to tree branch with unnatural speed, spelling out his name with an incredibly amount of drama.
"E.N.I.Z.O! That's the name of a true-" Enzio stopped mid-speech when one branch cracked right under his weight and before he could leap again he began to fall to the ground, "HEEEERRRRROOOO!" He went through two different branches before being stopped by tree vines just a little bit from the ground, he sighed, it seemed the 'Hero' needed help. Debating if he should call for help he opened his mouth, when he heard a sound of growling behind him, glancing behind his shoulder he noticed a pack of angry, hungry beasts beginning to approach him, and in the moment all pride disappeared, "Ack, help, help, HEEEELPPP!"

Their was a slight sigh amongst the trees followed by a strong gust of wind, a few of the beasts fell over on to their sides before a shadowed figure was stood in front of where Enizo was traped amongst the vines of a tree. The figure looked back at the man tangled up in the vines and gave out a small sigh "I miss the days when this wouldn't happen..." he muttered before quickly turning a full one hundred and eighty degrees, as he spun a glinting silver blade seemingly appeared in his hand and sliced through the vines which held up Enizo.
He quickly turned back to the beasts, a dark onyx blade now in his other hand "I miss the days, when a small pack of beasts wouldn't trouble someone who sings of himself as a hero" He added emphasis to the last word and turned his face to Enizo, it was hidden in the shadows of a hood, the hood of a large overcoat which covered all of his body, he shook his head before clicking out his neck "But I'm back..."

Enzio leaped to his feet and gave a small smirk at the man, "For a second I thought I was a goner..."
Enzio glanced back at the monsters whom were getting back onto their feet, "Hm, the world thanks you for saving me. But it seems this battle is only beginning, ah the work of a hero never ends..." Enzio held up his hands and closed his eyes, when he reopened one of eyes were completely back why the other was white, "Now witness the power of a true HERO!"
He raised his hands up and a blast of light and darkness blew one of the monsters away, "Success!"
...Meanwhile the other three monsters began to charge from his side.

"Interesting..."
Roxa muttered before looking briefly at the man's flank, with a shake of his head he leapt over Enzio's head and landed at his side, he crashed to the earth with an un-godly slicing sound and one of his swords forced it's way through the beast's head, he then pulled his sword free from it's lock and spun around in a brief circle, swinging his silver sword towards the other two monsters, a massive burst of wind forced the creatures back.
During the spin the darkness of the hood seemed to fall away from him, the spiked blonde hair seemed to fly off in all directions and his blue eyes glinted with delight, Roxa had spend a long time living as a civillian, and it felt good for him to be back in his element. It felt good for him to be fighting.

Enzio leaped from the ground at the two monster which were sent back, taking out only two of his five sword Enzio sliced into one of the monster and decapitated the second. He cleaned his blades and then put them away, turning back to Roxa he studied him for a moment, "Wait a moment... Do I know you?" Enzio paused for a moment before his face brightened up, just remembering who he was, "You're Roxa Sairen the Ex-Saint. My name is Enzio, I'm in league with the Allurom Guardians."

Roxa at first ignored Enzio, instead slowly kneeling to the ground he cleaned his blades against the grass and stood up straight, carefully examining each before sheathing them under his coat. Only then did he respond to Enzio, standing up straight he turned to face him and gave him a small smile "Yes, Roxa Sairen, that's me alright!" he looked the man up and down before humming slightly to himself "Enzio huh?" he scratched his chin with a gloved hand "Who're the Allorum Guardians?" he asked sheepishly.

"Gah..." It was like a cold chill swept over them, Enzio was completely frozen in his place just mumbling quietly to himself, finally he was able to speak, "I know in the recent years we've been losing numbers but really? You don't know...?" Then Enzio remembered something: Roxa being a Saint was way before their time, "Oh, um, never mind. We've been guarding this world for 900 years, it may surprise you but our founding fathers were heavily inspired by the Saints."
He laughed nervously, "Actually, me meeting you is kinda like a honor. Most of our ideals were based off the Saints."

"..Oh.." Roxa said with a small laugh "Can't say I've ever been met by someone who considered it an honour to do so!" he looked Enzio up and down again still humming as if he were examining him for some sort of potential "That thing you did back there... With your eyes" it had scarily reminded him of someone when he had done that "What exactly was it that you did?"

Enzio stood up proudly when Roxa questioned his magic, "That was a magic called Unity, I can combine things like fire and water, light and darkness and have them work together to make a devastating combo. I was told I could use this power due to my origins, my father being a human and my mother being a-" He suddenly stopped mid-speech, remembering how many are raciest against Elves and Highlords, "Well, um. So I haven't exactly mastered it, but I'm working on it." Enzio said quickly changing the subject.

Roxa noticed how Enzio seemed to blatantly cut off his own statement, but why would that be? Embarresment? It seems he wouldn't find out for the time being "It's an odd skill, one that I have not seen before, I myself can use wind magic and dark magic but I struggle greatly to bring them both together..." He still cast a suspicious eye over Enzio "You said that the Allorum Guardians are sort of who replaced the Saints after they all became paranoid of conspiracy against them... I would very much like to meet more of your order, see if they sufficiently replace the Saints"

"I bet they wouldn't mind that," Enzio thought back to how the Saints were betrayed long ago, the Allurom Guardians didn't appear until 100 years later, at that point the world's governments had realized that they betrayed their own savior, and began to honor the Saints for their sacrifice. "There are about a dozen or so of us left, like I said, we're a dieing group. It seems more and more we're going to be replaced by the 'Heroes'."

"I'd be careful how you talk about heroes!" He said with a slight smile hoping to show his point was not serious "All of the other members of my small order are heroes, and lest we forget I fought alongside most of them to save this world against both my former brother's and sister's in arms and against Trucido's forces" he nodded slightly in thought "I had hoped that the Kishu would be the new Saints, a group of people fighting to defend the innocent and not for greed, but I did not realise that such an order already existed"

"We've been trying, but we continue to lose our influence with other kingdoms, along with our falling numbers many of us are unsure how much longer our order will last." He nodded, "Kishu? I remember reading a report from one of our members about you guys, actually I was told to try to make ties between the Kishu and the Heroes."
Suddenly he realized the reason he was in this forest, "We wanted to make stronger ties with the two groups due to... disturbing reports."

"Disturbing reports..?" Roxa echoed Enzio's words before nodding slowly to himself, he hadn't once considered that this person might be hostile and feeding him lies, Roxa was a good judge of personality but he still had to be cautious, he sat down on a felled tree with his arms crossed against his knees with his fingertips lightly brushing against the hilts of the two swords at his waist "Care to clarify just what you mean?" He asked

Enzio nodded and sat down on the grass, "To put it simple words: Allorum is under a lot of stress, there are so many powerful people on this world that it is actually killing it, we haven't exactly found out where all this power is coming from but we can assume a massive uprising of groups will start." Enzio closed his eyes, "The power you and I possess isn't enough to cause this, considering the defeat of Trucido and the disappearance of Mark Fri it has helped the world, but this only tells there are more, extremely powerful people on this world, and I doubt they are here for good."
