Welcome to Gaia! ::

Sariel ran forward, propelling himself off the ground and swinging his sword--aming for the monster's eyes. The samurai hit below his mark, but the momentary spray of blood showed that it was at least slightly effective.

"Get inside!" he shouted back to Dars as the sinspawn reared back.

Hoelun shifted her position on the warm tile of the temple. The bards ended the musical piece and then dismissed for a break. She shared a short conversation with Olier that left her wondering.

Distracted, she ventured out of the temple into the fresh air. Unfortunately, it was not a warm breeze that carried to her across the temple plaza. It was the whistle of air in the wings of the Sinspawn.

She gave a shout and ducked inside the doorway to regather her nerves.

I've been training for this all of my life, haven't I? I knew the danger when I accepted the job. I knew it. And I knew that if I played in a place destroyed by Sin, there was a chance of meeting Sin itself.

Hesitant green eyes turned to the scene outside. She made a quick prayer to Yevon and darted onto the steps. "I'll help!" she cried, waving her arms. What a sitting duck.

"I am not going inside, you can't take this thing on your own."

Dars fired again, missing rather badly this time.

"But I will stick to using white magic I think."

Dars hid his pistol back in the holster and unslung his staff, just as someone ran down the stairs shouting about helping. Dars raised his staff and cast protect on Sariel and the newcomer.

"Then go for it!"

The sinspawn turned and flew straight towards Hoelun, claws held out.

The sinspawn broke off it's attack, howling in pain.

"That seemed unusually effective....."Dars raised his staff and cast scan on the monster. He shouted "It's weak against fire!" Coming to a decision Dars edged towards the steps as the sinspawn started going for Hoelun.

"Keep it busy! I'm going to get Ifrit!" Dars ran up the steps and entered the temple, running through the cloister of trials, disregarding his own safety slightly because he didn't know what it held. He passed through as quickly as he could, entered the chamber of the Fayth and began to pray ferverently.

"Get it in cloe--oof!" Sariel was knocked backward by one of the sinspawn's wings and hitting a wall--rather hard.
The samurai got up again, seeing double, but tried to get back into the battle. Though his head was still spinning, Sariel was able to graze the monster's stomach. As one can imagine, the monster didn't like this at all. It caught the samurai in the chest with a backswipe of its claws.
"Ahck!" he was thrown back a ways, blood soaking through his kimono and shirt.

((OOC: Overdrive, damn you! *beats Sariel with a baseball bat*))

((Now, I am posting this when no-one is online to try and ensure that it is as fair as possible. In this RP summons will be controlled by the RPers, for example let's say that Dars summoned Yojimbo, PL would RP as Yojimbo until dismissed. Seems pretty clear I think. Now we'll be doing this on a first come, first served basis, we have the exact right amount of Aeons to match the number of RPers for the moment. The Aeons are Valefor, Ifrit, Ixion, Shiva, Leviathan, Bahamut and Yojimbo.
PL has chosen Yojimbo and I have chosen Bahamut (privelidges of being the GMs i suppose) and, because we denied her RPing an Aeon earlier we let Saffire choose her Aeon first, she chose Shiva.
The Magus Sisters are too out of the way to warrant going after them. There is no Anima Aeon as Seymour's mother never existed, Baaj temple exists though and is home to a new Aeon, a water based one known as Leviathan.
The Aeons that are left are:-
-Valefor;
-Ifrit;
-Ixion;
-Leviathan.
Post in this thread which one you'd like to RP/own. Remember it's first come, first served.))

((OOC: I'll take Ixion...since the boob bird--erm...I mean...Valefor is taken.))

His head cleared as the spell took effect. Sariel looked up and gave the newcomer a grateful nod. That'd helped a bit. The samurai rolled out of the way of another buffet and jockeyed for position.

*looks at the fire daemon at one side of the room*
*looks at the water serpent at the other side*
*remembers FF8's grafics for the daemon*
*runs towards the serpent and together, they fill the room with water*
*noticed Ifrit's not there anymore*

((sorry, had to post something more elaborate than "I take Levy!"))
