"Right, right!" Walking carefully out of cover he quickly revised his code, causing the arrows to stop coming their way, instead three people jumped from the treeline, each in a green uniform similar to Enizo's.
"Welcome back, Enizo," one of them said, their faces cloaked by a hood.
"Hey, guys," Enizo smirked pointing over to Roxa, "I completed part of my mission."
The three people glanced over at Roxa, if one could see their eyes you could tell there was some shock in seeing Roxa, the one in the middle stepped forward, "Forgive us for that, but it seems Enizo continues to use the code that we have long given up..."
The man shot Enizo a dark glare which he just chuckled off.

Roxa stretched out his neck once more, the purple aura fading from his hands and eyes "I guess it's alright, we all make mistakes some times" he looked across at Enizo aswell "All of us do..." he sighed and shook his head before stretching his hand out to the soldier in the middle "My name is Roxa Sairen"

"Yes, I know," The soldier explained shaking his hand, "We've been keeping up with your recent activities, along with all your former and current comrades." He slipped off his hood to show his face.  "My name is Kal, I am a member of the Allurom Guardians. It's a honor to meet you in person." |

"My former and current comrades?" Roxa asked smiling not releasing Kal's hand "I do hope you've not been following me and my friends?" He gave Kal a smile, the kind of smile only someone with the appearence of a 17 year old could give, it appeared sickily and sweet but oozed warning and threat "I would take great offence if that were the case" he finally released Kal's hand and took a step back, crossing his arms across his chest "And I've already been through the whole 'honour' thing with Enizo, I'm sure he'll explain how much I detest the thought of it, but all the same, I know what you're doing here and I'm here to help to an extent"

"He likes it," Enizo gave a sarcastic thumbs up to his ally.
"I assure you that we're are done following them, with bigger things on our plates and not enough people to take care of it, as you can understand I don't have people following your friends every second of the day." Kal assured giving Roxa a nod, "I assume Enizo has filled you in about everything."
(That's fine, now I need something to do for awhile ;D it being only 8:18 here.)

"Yeah he did fill me in on things" Roxa said eyeing each member of the group with suspicion "And I can only wonder, you worry about being replaced by the Heroes, but have any of you thought of fighting alongside them? I myself have engaged against and alongisde the heroes a fair amount and they're all pretty damn strong, surely having some of them on board to help with this would make a massive cut in the amount of time that this will take?"

"That was the point of Enizo's mission, to bring the leaders of the Kishu and Heroes here to make formal ties with our groups," Kal explained.
"Problem is," Enizo started, "I noticed the Heroes are pretty tied up too, I doubt they could spare any of their troops for our mission. But the Kishu on the other hand seems pretty free at the moment."

"I have three generals, my second in command and about fifty elite Ignisian troops at my command" he said matter-of-factly "I reckon that Aya's pretty busy at the moment, Gensayce is up in Ghiaccio with the Queen, Riliath I could probably get to me pretty sharpish and maybe bring down about 10 men, he's in Ignis which is just north-west of here and he has a very fast horse and as for Van, if I can get hold of him I could probably get him down here aswell" He crossed his arms and looked at Kal "But if their's a risk of me losing some men, what's in it for me and them?"

"The world you live on," Kal answered blankly, "Enizo must have explained the world's current state, correct? But, if it is money that you feel is necessary I'm sure we can get you some."

"Well if we succeed and save this planet but my men die. I expect you to be the one to knock on the doors of their wives and children and explain to them that they've lost someone they love" His voice had turned bitter for a moment before softening again "Consider the money a compensation, if we lose a few men then some of it goes to their families and funerals, if we keep most of them then consider it our payment"

"Understood," Kal nodded, Enizo was left dumbfounded at Roxa's remark.
"I don't remember the Saints ever taking money when they volunteered to fight..." Enizo said quietly to himself, "I suppose the times do change."
"I was told by my leader to connect ties with your group at all costs, it's a little informal but shall we seal the deal here?" Kal said raising his hand to shake with Roxa's.

"The Saints were all gathered around a united cause, we didn't have a choice to make profit from it" Roxa looked across an Enizo as he shook Kal's hand "My men have spent their lives fighting for money, anything different would be abnormal for them and they would see no point in it" he released Kal's hand and reached into his over coat, pulling out a small scrolled note he gathered the air pressure around it and launched it into the air "I expect Riliath to be here with my men within a day, maybe a day and a half if he brings heavy infantry"

"I suppose I understand..." Despite what Enizo said he didn't agree, after all he was raised with the ideal that you do as much good without expecting anything in return.
"Then shall we discuss a plan of action?" Kal asked stepping aside so Roxa could see a small cave ahead.

Roxa nodded and started walking towards the small cave, as he passed Enizo he halted for a moment "If one of my men died. Their family won't be able to afford his funeral..." he looked across at him, his face blank "...remember that" he continued towards the small cave, his mind in turmoil. Although he had tried to validate his reasoning, Enizo was right, Roxa should not be asking for money to help save the world he lived on, but he had to think of his men.

Once entering the cave it was completely different then it looked outside, open spaces, good lighting, and statues of all the fallen Allurom Guardians standing at entrance. Kal walked to a room that was guarded by two other Guardians, each of them saluting Roxa and Kal as they walked by into a war room.
"It may surprise you but tracking down every single person responsible for this mess is harder then it looks, we've actually only been able to narrow down a couple locations," Kal directed Roxa to a map where thin little markers were placed all over the world, Crepusculum, Santo-Luce, but most of all there was a ton of them located on Unda.
