(Thats pretty cool!)
Hinata cursed under her breath, tightening her grip on the inscription. She looked around, trying to spot anyone through the dense snowstorm. She squinted against the storm.
(Oh dear god, as I was typing this storm auto corrected to "autism"…….)
(Did you mean… pretty cool?)
The figure who created the snowstorm appeared right behind Hinata out of nowhere.
“Found you…” the figure said in a chilly voice, attempting to knock Hinata out with the staff they held.
(Oh god XD)
(Oh lord, THE PUNS XD)
Hinata whirled around, jamming the Pisces inscription in her pocket with one hand and drawing one of her swords to block with the other.
(Expect.More.Coming. Lol)
The magician cursed a little before backing up into the mist once more. Not even a minute after he went back into the dense mist he created, a loud scream can be heard… the scream was not Sebastian’s, that was for sure, but it could be anyone of the two other people who were with Hinata earlier.
At times like this, the only thing that would work might be to fire randomly and hope for the best… or is it?
Hinata turned slowly in a circle in a defensive position as she assessed the situation. She quietly checked on her energy levels. She wasn't running low yet, but she couldn't afford to just take random shots into the mist. Plus, she had at least one ally in the mist, and she didn't want to accidently hit him. She didn't have many protein bars left, either. There was the cake, but sugar was a last resort for energy.
Sighing softly, she continued to move slowly, keeping her attention on the sounds around her. With mumbled words and a quick flicking motion with her left hand, she lit a small fire ball. If anyone did see it, they'd either find their way to her or move away from her. She had to be prepared; she had no idea who would see it, and that could mean a fight.
(I'm so proud of myself. I typed that in two minutes on my phone. XD)
(Nice!)
A shadowy figure started to move towards Hinata. Out of the shadows came Conziac, the one wielding Aries.
“The others are separated aren’t they?” He sighed in the mist.
Unexpectedly, the mist cleared soon after. What happened during that time was now shown. The figure in the fur coat had his staff through Mason, the current wielder of Taurus.
Sebastian was already near them, only 12 feet away from Hinata.
The fur coated figure removed their staff from Mason’s body and turned to the group. Due to them wearing a blank mask, the group couldn’t tell what his expression was other than his stressed grip on the staff.
Hinata quietly extinguished the fireball, now holding her sword in both hands. She glanced at Sebastian, then turned to keep both the fur coated figure and Conziac within her line of sight.
"Well then."
The fur coated figure stared at Hinata for a while before walking away without saying a word. But he wasn’t the only one who moved away from Hinata, on his staff was a corpse. Not of Mason, but of a Corruptor that was inside Mason. The figure stared down at the corpse and froze it by simply staring at it. They soon left Hinata’s line of sight.
(My friend owes me ten bucks now XD)
Hinata breathed a sigh of relief.
"I'll repeat my previous statement; well, then."
(What did you do?! XD)
Sebastian turned to Hinata then to Conziac.
“So… he’s apparently on our side… or at least not violent towards us?” he asked, genuinely confused.
“That would likely be the case” Conziac replied as he went to Mason’s body laying on the ground.
“Not dead, just unconscious” Conziac said as he hovered his hand above Mason’s nose, checking for signs of breathing.
(I may or may not have made a bet as to which one was corrupted… :)
Hinata sheathed her sword, sighing and putting her hand on her head.
"That would explain why he retreated after trying to bash my head in with his staff."
(Lucky you, congrats on ten bucks lol)
Sebastian nodded.
“Well then Conziac, pleasure to see you, we will take our leave now” he said, still wearing the Virgo helm. The Virgo helm Sebastian had on him was shaking slightly. He tapped Hinata’s shoulder, gesturing in a way that asked her about the Pisces inscription.
(Thanks! )
Hinata tapped her pocket to answer Sebastian's question, then turned and gave a small bow to Conziac.
"It was nice, but I agree. Till next time."
Conziac nodded and waved them goodbye. He then continued to check on Mason.
Sebastian turned around and tapped his chin.
“Maybe we should check on Intharachit…” he suggested with a small laugh. “Not that he needs help dealing with danger or anything, but you know, as things are down here, nothing’s a guarantee”
"Yeah. Hopefully he hasn't gotten into too much trouble yet," Hinata said with a smile. She held her hands behind her back, starting to walk back to where they had left Intharachit.
((OOC Question : Have you read the character discussion I’ve @ you in? The one about character theme songs))
(Tbh, I have no idea XD. I still have about 50 notifications I'm sorting through rn from when I was off.)
(Oh me lordy.)
(NateWantsToBattle and Snowman?)
(You have made my entire day)
(The others are actually really good as well, especially the ones from Ariabl’eyeS, those are amazing)
(There’s a reason I needed you to read that, and it’s not because of the songs hint hint wink wink)
(……….)
(DETECTIVE MODE ACTIVATED)
(Lol, I’ll help you out)
(It’s either Oliver, Cronos or Connor ;D)
(This piece of information may be vital later on when we talk about… Hinata leaving the Labyrinth)
Sebastian giggled slightly. As they made their way to where Intharachit was supposed to be… he was found missing from where he was and not a figure was in sight.
“Well isn’t this just what we needed…” Sebastian sighed, not knowing of where Intharachit is will most likely result in problems emerging later.
(Don’t tell me you actually started making note of the characters XD)
(Ah, nope. Just dealing with a small fury ball of death)
Hinata put her head in her hands, ducking in a breath as she moved her hands to the back of her neck.
"Damn. Just. Damn."
(… I won’t ask any further…)
Sebastian looked around, almost to the horizon even.
A black dart hit Sebastian directly on his neck. The dart was small enough to pass through the small hole in the Virgo armor.
Sebastian grunted and knelt down before a white wave of energy attacked him from underneath, leading to him flying upwards and falling down, hitting the ground with his back.
(There was a mole in my basement that nearly ran over my foot)
Hinata quickly made her way over to him, drawing her sword and falling into a defensive position.
"You okay?" She asked through clenched teeth.
(……………)
(It seems I'm hunting ravens today)
