[Roll]

[ooc]Yes... I realize I am double posting. Due to message length limits, I have to. ^-^; Sorry. Here I go.. [/ooc]

Everyone returned, one by one, to the area where Mizuki was. Each one was holding what they thought would be useful, and, interestingly enough, it was always the same item for each person. The item was a purple crystal, one that seemed mysterious in it's own way, and allowed each person to clear their minds of all negative thought. Yet, not having any other knowledge about those crystals, none of them were able to figure out how to use them in this situation: Mizuki was still on her rampage (she was floating around, anyway..), and getting near her would be too dangerous, let alone getting the crystal to her.

Contemplating on the thought, each person placed their crystals down to enable themselves their full ability of thought. After 20 minutes of sweating and pacing backward and forward continuously, they all looked at each other, and took a break. There had been no ideas except for trying to throw the crystals at Mizuki, hoping she would catch the crystals (submitted by Yanguz, who was crushed by the diligent "no"); Send someone into Mizuki's field with the crystals, and hope they come out alive (which was rejected, thankfully); and just leaving the temples and Mizuki altogether and forgetting about her completely (which, to Razz's disappointment, was rejected immediately). There was basically no choices left to their thought at all, and there would be no way to rescue Mizuki without getting killed (or feeling like it) on the way.

Razz took a glance around the room. ShinRyu and ShoRyu were staring up at mizuki's floating body, while Yanguz paced around them trying to think of other solutions. Kedjin was holding a wound that appeared fresh, yet not grave, and was staring down at the ground, obviously in deep thought. Razz's eyes passed by Mizuki, then passed the field she made, then the wall.... the blood stained spot where the unconcious werewolf [u:post_uid4]used[/u:post_uid4] to lay.....and back to--
Razz's eyebrows raised, as he turned to the spot where the werewolf used to lay. Stepping lightly, Razz strode over to the area and examined it for some clue that would tell what happened to the werewolf, but all he could see was a bloodstain, some fur, and some clear liquid nearby. An aroma of blood lingered, but was only noticable when kneeling by it (as he noticed when standing up to move away). He turned on his heel, and began to walk back to where he was originally. Unfortunately, he wasn't paying attention, and he bumped into someone, who fell from the impact and landed with a "thud" and the classical "oof!". Razz turned around and immediately started apologizing, though he didn't look at who was talking.

Razz: "Hey, man, sorry 'bout that."
?: "Don't worry about it. I've taken much worse..."
Razz: "Ok then."

And as Razz passed by him quickly, he noticed that the person he bumped into was brown, white, and had a particularly, long nose. He stood back in his spot, proud of the way he apologized like that... then, upon realizing the 'brown, white, and long nose' fact completely, Razz turned around to look at the werewolf who had been unconcious standing right before him, alive and well, though he still had the large gash on his side. Looking at him for that moment was almost like looking at a zombie...However, there was no time for judgement, because the werewolf asked a question, though Razz (or anyone else, really) failed to notice.

Fang: "HEY!"
Razz: (!!!!) "Who?! What?! Are we under attack?! LET ME AT 'EM!"
Fang: "Woah, hey, calm down. I just asked you what those crystals are for."
Razz: "Oh.."

Everyone, now aroused by Razz's excited yells, stared at them, as if expecting something strange to happen right in between them to stop the disturbing and continuous stares.

Razz: "Well, these wierd crystals can clarify a persons mind, to our experiences anyway. We want to use them to help out that girl... er... Mizuki... out with whatever is messing with her mind, but we can't get too close to her without getting massacred. Any ideas?"
Fang: "Sure. Give them to me."

Razz took a step backwards in suprise and stumbled over something. Apparantly, everyone was now behind Razz, watching and waiting from "his side" of the room. Razz took a deep breath, shook his head, and looked back at Fang.

Razz: "Why?"
Fang: "I would like to take them to Mizuki right now, if you wouldn't mind. It could take months for her to recover on her own, and I'd rather not let her take so long in doing so.."
Razz: "......"
Razz turned around to the group and began whispering.
Razz: "Can we trust him? I mean, he IS a werewolf.."
Yanguz: "I don't care! Right now, he's willing to go near the girl to help her, even in sacrifice of his life!"
ShinRyu: "Right now, it doesn't matter how it happens, as long as it happens."
ShoRyu: "That's right."
Razz: "......So do we trust him?"
Everyone: "......"
Razz: "Fine, geez... excuse me for the joke.."
Kedjin: "This isn't exactly the time for bad jokes."
Razz: "..." (Great... life threatening situations and insults... I [i:post_uid4]love[/i:post_uid4] my life... yeah-huh.)

Razz took all the crystals and walked to Fang with them, who took them immediately. He then inclined his head in gratitude, and walked into Mizuki's field. Everyone turned away, except for Razz, ShinRyu, and ShoRyu. ShinRyu and ShoRyu were hoping that Mizuki would be revived again, and Razz was just eager to see whether the Werewolf would come out alive. They saw the outline of Fang's body stepping close to Mizuki, and stopping as she floated gently down....

Mizuki looked at Fang, and floated in a small circle around him. She stopped to look at his face, and then his wound again. As she looked at the wound, her completely blank eyes began pouring out tears that flowed silently down her cheeks, rolled to her chin, and then fell down to the ground. Fang moved closer to her, but stopped when he felt he was overstepping his boundaries. But then Mizuki wrapped her arms around him, and lay her forehead on his chest. He looked down in surprise and awe, but understood her worries. He embraced her in turn, and both stayed in the embrace as long as the other one dared to hold their embrace. Finally, Fang whispered to Mizuki:
"Do you want to go back to normal again?"
Mizuki nodded, still not making a sound.
"Do you trust me enough to let me help you?"
Mizuki nodded again, and still didn't make a sound
"Alright then. Now, just... try to gather all of your thoughts..."

Mizuki nodded an "ok", and winced as she began. The field she created began pulsating horribly, and moved closer to the group. Sadly, all chance for escape was now in-accessable, because the field consumed all of the exits, and destroyed them. Moving into a corner, everyone began panicking, and expecting a painful death to come towards them... However, Mizuki and Fang were perfectly fine, though Mizuki's hair was flying around as if she were standing in the middle of a tornado and it occasionally got into Fang's eyes. He needed to be able to see Mizuki to make this work, but in the meantime he prepared even further, the help that Mizuki desperately needed at this moment. As soon as the hair flew out of his eyes, he placed the crystals on Mizuki's body, where they could be used to lower the pressure of thought of Mizuki. Fang soon was down to one crystal left, and he was hesitating. he had placed the crystals everywhere, except for a few areas (obviously) one of which needed the crystal. The last crystal needed to be placed on her chest, and Fang, being a warrior and man of honor, felt embarrassed. However, a sudden shout (coming from Razz, because a rock he tossed disintegrated in the field) made Fang realize that there was more danger than that which occurred to him, and he took up all of his courage and placed the crystal in the final area.

Razz's nose began to feal burned when the forcefield suddenly died down, and realizing as much, he began waving his arms in an attempt to cool off his nose. However, everyone else was fine, and they looked around, noticing that there was now no exit, and that Mizuki was standing. They all then stared at Mizuki, wondering if she was still in her state of mind. Then, Mizuki started moving toward them, which triggered a fearful reaction that forced everyone back up against the wall in an almost disgusted manner. Upon seeing this, Mizuki looked down and let some tears fall to the ground. Then, she lifted her hand into the air and everyone began floating, which scared everyone. They all began floating to the ceiling, and then, as they touched the ceiling, they went through it. It was dark outside now, and the sky was lit up with shining stars that glowed immensely. But when they touched the ground, the sky seemed suddenly dimmer, and Mizuki spoke:

Mizuki: "I'm sorry, everyone."
Everyone: "....."
Razz: "Lis-" He was cut-off by Mizuki.
Mizuki: "Yes, this WAS my fault. If I hadn't gone and accepted what my mother left for me, none of this would've happened. Unfortunately, this isn't the end, and this path that I have chosen only goes further. I have to continue on my journey and find the last remaining piece of my life... And afterwards, I will be able to fight with Duraga (with no regrets) to the death..."
Everyone: "...."
Mizuki: "In any case... I realize that some of you are terribly afraid of me now, and I don't blame you. I'm afraid of myself right now as well. However... I want to ask you for your help. I can't travel alone to where I need to go: It would be too lonely, and I'd probably wind up dead after all the fighting and running I would have to do alone. Yet, I want you all to take your choices in this matter into consideration. I don't want any of you coming just because I asked, and I don't want anyone coming against their own will." *looks at Razz* "I want you all to think about it. I'll be leaving tomorrow morning at dawn. If you're coming.... meet me at the village common entrance. Until then, I must take my leave and prepare for my trip..."
Everyone: "...ok..."

And then everyone seperated to go thinking someplace...

Mizuki went into the tent of a werewolf that had a fire going. It apparantly was a priest that held many items with him that would be of need in the journey, and Mizuki traded some magic silk and metals for them. Impressed by the silk and metals, the Werewolf began wondering what the possibilities for it were, and nodded off to sleep in Mizuki's presence. Mizuki walked over to the fire, put it out, and magically placed a little orb of warmth near the werewolf to keep him warm. Then she moved on out, and into the forest again. She passed many trees on the way to where she was going, along with animals that all stood still to watch her pass by with eager eyes. When she reached a small cliff, she sat on the edge of it, and stared at the moon in the sky. Then, out of nowhere, Fang appeared. He walked over to Mizuki, sat next to her, and looked at the moon too. He was smiling about something; Mizuki noticed that his wound was wrapped. When Fang turned his face to look at Mizuki, he wore a serious expression.

Fang: "Are you really sure that you are ready to go on a journey like this?"
Mizuki: "Whether I am ready or not... I have to go. I have no say in this, at least not if I ever want to live a normal life..."
Fang: "......"
Mizuki: "......Ok, a not-so-normal life, but as normal of a life that I CAN live, anyway..."
Fang: "...What do you expect you'll come across on the journey?"
Mizuki: "Well... monsters (of course), people, towns, new experiences, lots of opportunities, chances to gain knowledge, and if I'm really lucky, a real living relative."
Fang: "But what if you never find what you're looking for?"
Mizuki: "...Well, I don't ever try to "but" these things. You don't know what's on a path by doubting it, and never embarking onto it. You will, however, [u:post_uid4]know[/u:post_uid4] if you go."
Fang: "...Well then, Mizuki.... I guess I'll have to find out then."
Mizuki: *blinks* "What do you mean?"
Fang: "I don't want you going on the search without someone who can help you if you go into another rampage like you did again. Besides... I need a new adventure. I can never sit still."

Mizuki giggled and patted Fang's head. Fang blinked at her, utterly confused. After about ten minutes, they both went to sleep next to a white light that Mizuki created, and it shined throughout the night, as if it were a star.
The next morning, Mizuki and Fang were waiting at the edge of the village common, and they waited...

[ooc] Since Karma had posted already, I'll post what he put down.. [/ooc]

KEDJIN:"Some adventures, huh!"

[Voice coming up from the nearest tree]

*Fang and Mizuki turn their heads to see the person*

Kedjin:"I too seek adventure. Besides... if anything were to happen, it is my sworn duty to help. Clearly, you do need a lot, and even though I don't know you, I'm sure I can help you find what you seek as well."

Mizuki smiled and inclined her head in gratitude.
Mizuki: "Thank you, kind sir.... but what was your name again?"
Kedjin: "You may call me Kedjin."
Mizuki: "Alright... we'll be leaving soon, Kedjin. We just have to wait to see if anyone else will come."

And so they wait some more, as the wind blew passed them, and kept them entertained with many different colored leaves...
