"GRAIL"
CHAPTER 7: "The Invasion"
~SM STATION~
(Ace's House)
"Looking at Penelope makes me want to sleep as well."
"Poor Penelope"
"Yeah, I thought she's the type who fears nothing."
"I don't think Penelope's gonna wake up any time soon."
"Shawn, why don't the two of you stay here for the night"
"I totally don't mind"
"About what happened awhile ago..."
"Yeah?"
"The Elite Brigade member killed the man without hesitation... and what bugs me more is that... He said... It wasn't human, alive... or dead..."
"I wasn't able to look at the man... or the creature... or whatever it was xD What did it look like?"
"Hm... it had a human-like body... more or less it was like a corpse... a decaying dead body... covered with dirt..."
"Covered with dirt?"
"Yeah... for some reason it was covered with dirt"
"I wonder if there are more of those things..."
*Yawns*
"Let's go to bed for now... We all got pretty tired huh?"
"Yeah... I hope Penelope will be better by tomorrow"
"Yeah"
~SM STATION~
"Huh? What the?! Why am I here all of a sudden?!"
"Hello again Ace ^^ "
*looks back* "Ritzy? What the?! Am I dead?"
"No silly ^^ "
"..."
"I have something I want to tell you..."
"Huh?"
"But first of all... I'm sorry..."
"Sorry?"
"Ace, do you still remember the things I taught you?"
"Yeah, but..."
"I want you to master them... all of them ^^ "
"Huh? but I'm a blade Ritzy... What if I get caught?"
"It's silly don't you think? That it's a taboo to learn skills of the other jobs ^^ "
"Gee I don't know... I'm kinda bad at buffs and stuff xD "
"I don't think so... You just lack practice... You are unique Ace... able to cast spells without the use of a stick" ^^
"I didn't thought of it as anything special... I just feel more comfortable doing it without the stick" ^^
"Lemme tell you this, I know no assist that can cast spells without one"
"Woah! really?"
"Yup ^^ Ace, I also want you to learn to use the knuckle hammer...
"Woah! What's with all this stuff Ritzy?"
"Ace, just do it ok?" ^^
"I'll try"
"No! I don't want you to just try... I want you to do it! "
"Hey, relax Ritz"
"I'm sorry... Just promise me you'll do it ok?" =(
"I'm getting a headache... This is just too sudden..."
"Ace, when the time comes... please don't be mad at me..." =(
~SM STATION~
(Ace's House)
Penelope: "Aaaaaaaaaahh!!! Get your hands off me you perv!!!"
Ace:"Oouucchh!" What did you do that for?!"
Shawn: "Will you two be quiet!"
"ACE TOUCHED MY..."
"I DIDN'T DO IT ON PURPOSE!"
"Yeah right..." :glare:
"At least we know Penelope's back to normal" :ridicule:
"I kinda liked her better when she was unconscious" :glare:
"That hurts" :sigh:
:sweat: "Woah... I'm sorry... Forget what I said"
"It's ok... I'm sorry too" =(
"I'm witnessing love in the making" :sparkle:
Ace and Penelope: shut up!
"ACE!!! ACE WAKE UP!!"
"Wait, someone's at the door"
*opens the door* "Hey, what's with all the ruckus?"
"I don't have time to explain, get ready... NOW!
meet us at the old arena! go there ASAP! gotta go... I still need to tell the others..."
"Who was that Ace?"
"A messenger from the Blade's Guild... Penelope, please turn around..."
"Um.. ok..."
*wears his gear* "I'm sorry for the rush but I gotta go to the arena ASAP... duty calls..."
"Ok... We'll see you there..."
"Take care Ace" ^^
"ehem" :ridicule:
Penelope: :glare:
~Saint Morning~
The Arena
"Woah! What's with all these people?"
EVERYONE GET READY!!!
"What the?!"
KNIGHTS AND BLADES AT THE FRONTLINE! PSYKEEPERS AND ELEMENTERS SUPPORT THEM!
RANGERS AND JESTERS ELIMINATE THOSE THAT GETS IN!
*goes to the frontline*
~As Ace goes to the front line, he saw something moving closer and closer to them...
"..."
~Ace's body froze...
~He saw a horde of creatures... Just like what he saw in the Darkon Mines...
"Hey, snap out of it..."
"Oh, it's you again..."
"No time for a casual conversation... Give it all you've got ok? ^^ "
"I will..."
RINGMASTERS START BUFFING!!!
"(Crap! Im getting really nervous!)"
"Here they come!"
GET READY!!! RANGERS, NOW!
~All the rangers gave all they've got to the horde....
Arrows covered the field...
It became dark...
because of the rain of arrows...
A lot of the creatures died...
But still, there were so many left...
~The front line soon began charging...
"Whraaaa!"
Everyone fought...
Every minute felt like forever...
and soon...
Everyone reached their limit...
"What's wrong with these things? Don't they get tired?!" Whraaaa!"
Still, Ace and the others continued to fight...
"Behind you!"
"Crap!"
*charges to the creature* "haaa!"
"Penelope!"
"Looks like I saved your ass"
"Thanks... that was a close one..."
"Just a little longer and..."
"Penelope... get back... You've reached your limit already..."
"No! I can still fight..."
Alexander: "BURNING FIELD!!!"
A huge burst of fire came about...
The fire eliminated all the creatures nearby...
Alexander: EVERYONE PLEASE GET INSIDE SAINT MORNING... NOW!
"Woah! It's Alexander..."
"The guild leader finally showed himself ^^ "
Everyone went back to Saint Morning...
Everyone... Except Alexander and his members...
"Sorry for being late... I was waiting for him to show up as well..."
~The crowd watches from Saint Morning...
"They are heavily outnumbered..."
"It seems they have a plan..."
"Wait, where's Shawn?"
"Let's go look for him..."
"I hope he's okay..."
Alexander: "Eurynome"
The horde stopped charging...
and a man from the horde stepped forward...
"I'm impressed..."
"Get everyone to Flaris..."
"What about you sir?"
"You all have done more than enough... I'll take it from here ^^ "
"Very well... Take care sir..."
~All that remains in Saint Morning now rather than the horde is Alexander...
"My oh my... aren't we arrogant... You think you can handle me alone?"
"Eurynome, why did you come back?"
"Oh, you know the reason..."
"You were the last summoner that summoned the Clockworks..."
"And you are the sons and daughters of the fools who killed my fellow summoners..."
"..."
"Stupid fools... This is what you get for being so ignorant!"
