Dastan nodded. " Alright...sounds like a plan , genius. " He chanted as he rolled his eyes and goes to his room. He just hoped their so called allies could find their way.

Okay, so Tori didn't find this stupid mission she's been forced to join in on important enough to hurry. She took her own time, and when she arrived in Acre(or wherever this place is, she just followed her... companions), the first thing she did was buy some fruit. An apple. She liked apples. They were sweet, but not overly so.

While she wasn't fond of the city, their apples were good. Nice and crisp. Buying one more and placing it in a pouch attached to her belt, she surveys the place with slightly narrowed eyes. The short-haired girl had abandoned her horse a little ways back, she preferred to walk. Even though she hated this city. The mercenary had a good a idea where the others were, but she would take some time in getting there.

Tori had only been to Acre a few times before. It was a place she avoided, and only came here on business.

Pushing such thoughts aside, she enters the mansion. This was sortof a business visit. Sortof. She knows of one, but not the other. What was his name again? Dastan? Rastan? Something-tan? She never cared for him enough to learn his name properly. That is, if he even told her.

"If you do not mind..." The blonde begins, "What are we to be doing here?" Her tone was a little louder than her previous quiet statements. It wasn't rude, but wasn't polite. Dark eyes watched him as she waited for an answer, resembling little of the sleepy girl before.

This was business, afterall.

Ceres finally reach the mansion when she heard, "Kewh-Kewh," come from an off set of the large building...

CHOCOBOS?!

"I guess it doesn't harm anyone if I just take a look..." the dragoon knight whispered grinning walking quietly off to the stable.

She crept into the stable to find not one, but ten chocobos. Most of which were sleeping, but oddly one, a red chocobo was still awake. She grinned searching for something to feed the beautiful creature.

She looked to the side to find stores of food for the creatures. Grabbing a handful of Gyshal Greens, Ceres walked to the bird, smiling, "want a treat young one?"

The bird seemed to have nodded in acknowledgment, so she held out her hands with the Green it and the Chocobo happily ate what was there.

"Can I touch you?" Ceres said quietly to the bird, arm slowly stretching to pet it's feathers. Once she lightly pet the birds feathers it seemed as it if was asking for more. Ceres happily obliged the bird. Grinning she could felt like she could do this forever.

Ghazi watched from the open door way, quietly as the dragoon fed his prized bird. But it wasn't long before his pet noticed he was there. Jupiter kewh'd loudly right in the poor woman's face. Ghazi just smiled and slowly approached Jupiter, stopped there standing next to Ceres. "Hello my sweet, how are you?" he asked Jupiter as she looked up at him appearing to be quite happy with her new friend. He laughed. "You are the object of my affection, Jupiter, don't eat too many greens." he said to her in a soft but commanding voice. Ghazi gave her a final pet, and turned to Ceres saying; "I see you have found your way to us.."

Dastan quirked in his bed , with cold sweats and sighs. The young man simply growled. He couldn't sleep nor rest. He simply tried to take a rest from this all.

[Short lads. My bad.]

[Tsunade]

Ceres was enjoying her moment when the bird let out a loud noise scaring her. Ceres turned around to find that the Chocobo had recognized it's owner happily and was wanting his not hers.

WHY MUST HE RUIN EVERYTHING?!

She watched as the man treated the bird with kindness that was heart warming.

OBVIOUSLY HE ONLY TREATS THINGS HE LIKES WITH KINDNESS.

When he turned to her acknowledging her feat in finding him, her barrier slipped.

"I'm sleeply." She said out loud before realizing. She quickly covered her mouth in horror of her display.

I sat in the upper rafters of the barn, looking down at the interesting scene below me involving Ghazi, Ceres, and the red chocobo. I took a small bite of a juicy pear that I had 'borrowed' from a passing vendor, and settled back quietly against the rafters, as I lazily watched the dust motes floating slowly by.

[ForgottenBushido]

"Oh-?" Ghazi said as he reached out to catch the collapsing dragoon. As she fell against him asleep, he picked her up hoisting her over his shoulder and turned to walk out. Stopping at the door he said in a small, still voice; "Elvaan, There is nothing for you here. If you have business with this family do us the honor of meeting my father formally. Stalking me in my barn, is quite pointless." when he was done he proceeded to leave, minding Ceres' head carefully as he exited. Ghazi crossed back out to the courtyard to find another new guest. A blonde woman, no doubt associated with the one in his arms. "Excuse me? But I take it you're this girls friend, as well the Elvaan?" He perceived the look on her face to mean that she was indeed their ally. "Well If my brother Dastan has failed to introduce you properly, let me take this time now, to introduce myself." Ghazi knelt down to lay Ceres on the loveseat adjacent to him. Returning his attention to the blonde, "Ghazi Al Husam, is my name. Ghazi Al Husam. Remember it."

[Yakatsu]

" Remember it. " Said the young man coming out of the shadows showing off his real face. It was red and boiling of the fact of the scarfs squeezed his cheeks to avoid getting them eroded by the raging cold and sand. " Must you always end your introductions like that brother? It makes you seem....slightly...arrogant. But then again that's what makes us special. " Chanted the boy grinning. His hair was black and his eyes were ...brown. Nothing out of the blue, no point ears , no scars nothing. Even though his left hand being nothing more then a metallic claw , replacing the bone and skin that was of before. " Knight-woman. Pointy-ears girl. " He nodded his head as he addressed to both of the girls. " Ghazi. What now? I'm done resting. I wish to fight an antlion to see if my blue magic and my swordsmanship are still intact. Not to mention the fact my hand has been dieing to crack the shell of those beasts. " Dastan spoke grinning as his claw clanged together. " Oh I miss the overall violence. "

[ForgottenBushido]

Ghazi bowed to the guest and questioned his brother. "Dastan, Why must you always lust for battle?" And don't look at me that way and talk of Antlions. "The last time you looked at me that way, you lost your arm to an antlion." Ghazi never raised his voice, he didn't have to. When Ghazi spoke, it meant that it was his word, and Ghazi never lied.

Dastan growled. " Bah! Details details! Actually ever since I lost my arm , I've been better at fighting! I actually even think I'm better at fighting then you right now brother! " A grin crossed his face. " Jokes aside , brother , you do have to admit. Ever since I've lost my mortal hand and replaced it with cold steel , my battle strategies and overall power have increased. " He chanted as he crossed his arms.

[ForgottenBushido]

Ghazi smiled and looked Dastan in the eyes. "Indeed, your loss has truly been your gain. But women respond to the warm embrace of flesh, Not cold steel. Fear not little brother, You'll always have the love of your chocobo."

Dastan laughed. " Women. Bah! Most women flaunt at us because of our money. Lustful for our gold. Not our flesh. Most of them don't care if I'm a cold man of steel. As long as my pouch is filled with riches they'll kiss me and whisper sweet things. I'm looking for a woman that can look at me and see a hero. I dream of impossible feats. But enough about women and gold and what-not. I'm sure the Northerners wish to see the antlions. And to see what I can do with them. " With that a cackle came out. A big one. Almost came out of evil's bowels itself. " Ah, sometimes I just get carried away. "

[ForgottenBushido]

"I believe rest is what they seek, and they will find only death, If forced to march onward." he replied. "Furthermore, waste not your energy on antlions, We have spies to catch and a princess to save. Let's see if your steel claw and gold with win Her heart.." Ghazi huffed and made his leave.
