imjuggernaut Andreas studied the old worn parchment looking at the blueprints it wasn't going to be easy and it would help if he had better men or someone to lead this bunch of thugs at least long enough for his plan to work, if only that man had stick around. he didnt know much about him but he seemed like he would be good enougth to lead a band of thugs for awhile. perhaps if he found out what the man wanted he could make a deal. Yuki-kyai seemed like and excellent fighter but seemed to be more adept at striking swiftly and he would need her if things got out of hand. first thing was first thou, the men he had found would not last long without some advantage and he attended to give them one not that they really deserved it but it was the only way. he took a stroll through the streets. where was that shop he was looking for, ahh. he walked to a crudely decorated place weapons lined the windows and entered. looking around there was nothing particularly special on view but maybe he could get a few items and if possible a few horses from somewhere. he doubted those men would last long but for the money he paid he was sure they would fight for there greed after he promised them more. if it was one thing he had it was gil. as the shopkeeper came towards him he looked him over. "what can i do for you?"
"i need any powerful and rare items you have in stock, plus anything that might cause quite alot of destruction from bomb fragments to battle boots.. money is no object and i dont care about the safety factor"andreas chucked a pouch of gold on the table waiting for a reply. "certainly. i will have them all prepared for you on your return. the best my store has to offer"andreas didn't really think much of that but nodded and left to grab a drink as he did he spotted the man he had met before and walked over.
"Siveus wasnt it, so what is it your looking for im sure i could help you find it"

andreas sneered at the man as he pushed him away.
"that all you have to say. i thought you were smarter than that. obviously i was wrong."
andreas swung his cape around his arm.
"your not worth my time if you can not see the rewards of working with me. pity i could have given you much but it seems you shall be just another man to fall in the battle to come"
andreas turned away and made his way to find Yuki-kyai and to fetch a few steeds for him and her.
"farwell, perhaps i will see you in another life or maybe in thefuture at my feet"

A large blast suddenly erupted in the middle of the city. Many of the houses now lay in ruins and some were already ablaze.
The blast had come from the direction that Siveus had went and Andreas knew whatever was happening had something to do with him. A large mass of people were scampering through the streets towards the exit of the city. Large spires of ice and black flames were erupting from the city square and things seemed to be in chaos.

andreas watched the blast as ice spouted from the direction and he looked with one eyebrow raised then spoke back to Siveus.
"your work? i thought you said you weren't looking for people to kill."
he then walked away as if nothing had happened with the screams and people rushing around. he just kept a steady pace and looked for Yuki-kyai the panic and smoke filled sky didn't seem to bother him in the least.

Yuki-kyai sat on a roof top, eating a rice ball as she smelt the smoke from the blast off in the distance.
The tendrils of smoke snaking their ways towards her felt cool.
Finishing up her rice cake she spotted Andreas walking against the mass of crowd.
Smiling she stood up and brushed the crumbs off herslef before quickly leaping across the roof tops until she was ahead of Andreas.
Holding onto a strong thin transarent wire she spoke to him while upside down.
"looking for something?"

andreas stared at the girl who appeared rather abruptly upside down and watched her eat her rice ball. he looked at her inquisitively for a moment before speaking out.
"not now, i hope that you have quired all the supplies you need are journey will be a long one"
andreas looked annoyed at the men waiting for them at the edge of the village. ones he had paid to work for him, there weren't nearly enougth for what he had planned.
"hmmm, if only i could find men of a high standered willing to work for money."
these rejects would do and had the muscle to cope but what he needed was an organized group to follow his plan. hmm it may take a bit moret raveling before he had a decent amount of fighters but where. the best thing was to travel south .
"Yuki-kyai for now i need you to keep an eye on these men and make sure they follow orders, preferably without killing them. i know your more of a silent fighter but until i find a general to lead these.....men, i must rely on you"
he walked to the band of lowlifes as they spat and grunted weapons striped all over them waiting to move out in a rowdy bunch.

Yuki-kyai did a back flip, landing next to andreas and walked beside him as if she had been doing so.
A bit disappointed at not being able to kill them if they steped outta line she spoke.
"where are we heading to?"

"well we cannot do what i have planned with these few. it will take much more of a stronger force"
a carriage came slowly down the path towards them and pulled up next to him.
"whoah there"
the shopkeeper andreas had seen before jumped down and untied the back of the carriage.
"here are those weapons and supplies you asked for the most lethal i could find. bomb fragments, al behd assault rifles, battle axes and many others"
andreas took a look.
"its adequate. heres your money"
andreas threw a bag of gold in his arms and he ran away gleaming.
"all of you help yourself to what you want"
they all smiled with a few bellowing laughs and hurried to get the best pushing each other away then examining some of the huge weapons strapping them to there backs. after they finished andreas spoke out to them.
"make sure you put them to good use."
andreas observed the large group and saw a particularly brudy dark character his weapons of choice where very well thought out and he shielded himself in amour thou his muscley body was easily enough defense. he had a large mohawk and piercings all over. to andreas he looked to be the most experienced at fighting.
"you whats your name?"
"hundar"
"you will help lead these men under Yuki-kyai and i expect nothing but your best"
"of course"
"lets head out to the south any fiends we come across will be worthy enemies to face to train with"

Yuki-kyai looked at Andreas as the weapon carriage came, Shrugging she started to walk off as she polished one of her death stars.
They guy's who's ear Yuki-kyai still kept in her pouch, quickly grabbed a flail then ran to catch up to Yuki-kyai.
Looking down at him out of the corner of her eye Yuki's voice seemed to snarl
"I didn't ask you to follow me at this present point in time."
Seeing the man shocked and unknowing of what to do yuki turned around and whispered to him.
"Go back to Andreas men and tell me when we move out...I do not trust Andreas, tell me if you hear of anything that I wouldnt
Half chuckling to herself at the statement as he ran back towards the other men Yuki sat down and surveyed the land.

before they left andreas walked over to the stables just outside the entrance and barted for some worthy steeds. he brought the two hourses over then climbed up into the saddle of one as it grunted then rode along to them. Once the men where finished andreas marched ahead of them.
"lets move out!"
they all slowly began to follow still playing with their weapons and andreas looked over to Yuki-kyai as her taken slave walked over watching him. andreas could merely smile as he offered the reins down to Yuki-kyai.
"here, it will make the journey easier for us"
he then rode of with the rabble behind out of the city.

Yuki-kyai startled at the sudden appearance or reins took them in one hand and pushed herself up using her other hand.
She stoked the horses neck and whispered in its ear so quietly that no one else could hear.
She walked down its length and nodded before patting its rear and mounting it as she followed Andreas keeping at the rear of the party to keep a watchfull eye on them all.

as they set out the men followed in there chaotic bunch and andreas rode ahead. he had little idea where he could go to find what he was looking for but if he headed across the land there must surely be a few more men he could use. the men who followed would stay to fulfill there job as long as he paid them well but as for Yuki-kyai he wasn't so sure, her he didn't quite know her story and he could see she was a devious one.
the land was open over large grassy fields but covered in a soft mist it would take some navigating and he would have to keep an eye on the fools that folowed so they wouldn't get lost. he lit a strong light in his hand to show the way and headed south.
