"Fang, where are we going to hide?! This place is pretty much just a desert, except there is no vegetation period!"
"I know! But unless we find someplace quick, we could be dead. So let's hurry."
Mizuki followed Fang south away from the direction where the mages would be coming from. About 1/4 of a mile down, he stopped and Mizuki crashed into him. She fell backwards, but he grabbed her arm and pulled her into the bushes. There, Mizuki brushed herself off, and began to speak, but was cut off by Fang shushing her. Fang parted the bushes slightly, so that they could see clearly, but they could easily be seen. Mizuki thought for a second. She didn't know how strong the Mages were, but to keep the werewolves at bay like this, they had to be very strong. So, estimating the danger she was in right now, she decided to try casting some magic. She began to focus her mind on a few trees and bushes that were in front of them and blocking their view. Suddenly, all Fang could see was the village, and there were no trees or bushes in front of him. Panicking, Fang grabbed Mizuki's arm and tried to pull her away, but she resisted and pulled him down. Fang began to reproach her, but Mizuki stopped him. She grabbed his arm lightly, and he looked at her confused. She smiled as she placed his hands against the bushes in front of them, that were just invisible, and began explaining things to him.
Mizuki: (whispering)"The bushes are there, and so are the trees. The only thing is, is that the trees are see-through to us, but not the eyes of someone else. It's one of my spells."
Fang: (whispering)"Ok then. Now, let's watch, listen, and see what happens."
Mizuki: (whispering)"Right!"
The mages
At the village a very small amount of commotion and excitement was commencing, as people ran in and out of their homes replacing beautiful pots, brightly colored plants, and other grand items with older, much uglier stuff. When each one had done with their re-organizing, they knelt outside and faced downward. Suddenly, Mizuki and Fang began to hear drums, and Fang's gestures signified that the mages were finally here. Mizuki looked closer, and saw that there were beings carrying something. The beings were cloaked, and hooded, so Mizuki could not see what they looked like. Mizuki wondered what they were carrying, when someone appeared on the item that the cloaked beings were carrying. It was a male werewolf, that seemed entirely normal, except for the fact that his clothes were completely different from that of anyone she had ever seen. His pants were really wide at the end of the legs, and he only wore an open jacket on his abdomen. He had long, blue hair, his fur was of a brown color with white patches, and he had blue eyes. He wore a belt and necklace that both had sapphires in them. He seemed to be floating....
Mizuki: (whisper) "Who's he?"
Fang: (really low whisper) "That's Durageo. He's one of the 7 mages of our village. He is able use water at his command in any way he wishes to utilize it. He can also control all the water that is supplied to this village, which is probably a reason why it is like this."
Mizuki: (whisper) "Who does he think he is, taking away water like he owned it..."
Fang: (whisper) "Well, he does control the water like he was taught to do so."
Mizuki: (whisper) "....Good point. Let's keep watching."
The next few figures were carrying another werewolf, that had silverish fur with black patches, and was very thin. The werewolf was laying on a red velvet pillow, while fanning itself with a large leaf. It had long, blonde hair, that was strangely perky and lively, and it flowed as the wind blew it around. It was a girl! She was giving everyone a look of arrogance and pity. The way she was dressed told that she was very self-centered with a hint of sass. She had colorless eyes, which were obviously not blind, since she could see that one of the people who were carrying her were trying to peek up her dress. The person got hit, obviously, and she gave little wicked smile as her long ears moved around threateningly. Mizuki nudged Fang, who was staring at the werewolf.
Mizuki: (whisper) "Hey, remember, she is an enemy!"
Fang: (Whisper) "I know that!"
Mizuki: (whisper) "Then why are you blushing?"
Fang: (Whisper) "......"
Mizuki: (whisper) "Nevermind. Now, who is she? Is she a mage?"
Fang: (whisper) "Yes. Her name is Lapine. She is the mage of gravity. She really likes to torture people by increasing the gravity around them to unearthly amounts. Her powers are very deadly, and that is kind of hard to believe because of her outer appearnance. She killed many great warriors because of her looks."
Mizuki: (whisper) "So she seduces her challengers?"
Fang: (whisper) "Right, and it's always worked."
Mizuki: (whisper) "Well, she'll need to get around me then, because, as I am a girl, I-"
Fang: (whisper) "Shh! The next mage is here!"
The next figure to appear was by itself. It was another male werewolf, but he was literally floating in midair as he came to the place. He immediately went next to the side of Lapine, who blew a kiss at him. His hair was brown, as were his eyes, and his fur was all chestnut, except for the tip of his tail which was black. He wore pants that were baggy, and his jacket was really small. He seemed to have a strange glint of sadness in his eyes that hid his true nature. Fang nudged Mizuki during her observation of the eyes.
Fang: (whisper) "Don't be fooled by the eyes. He's killed so many people in the past. He's a very bad person. His name is Emilio. He is the mage of wind. He's another reason why many people can't defeat them all. He always blows everyone away with a tornado or hurricane, and they always land in some place far away. He seems to love Lapine, though...."
Mizuki: (whipser): "You mean like you do?"
Fang: (blushing & whispering) "....Shutup."
Mizuki: (whisper) "Hush, there's more!"
The next figures that came were just two figures. Both were males, and judging by how they were treating each other, they were brothers. One of them looked really fierce and hateful. He had red hair, brown eyes, and tan fur. He was wearing armlets on both arms, and a little metal band on his right arm. He had a sword on his back, and he only wore underwear and loincloth to cover it. Other than that, he was pretty much naked. However, the other werewolf was more calm, and peaceful looking. That one had deep blue eyes, silvery hair, and silvery fur to match. He had an earring on his right ear, and he wore wristlets on both of his wrists. His pants were somewhat baggy, but they fit him correctly. He wore armor that only covered the left and right side of his abdomen, but the middle of the abdomen was very bare, and was very distinguished too. The armor, as well as his necklace and pants, were made of something very see-through.
Mizuki: (whisper) "Who are they?"
Fang: (whisper) "The one with the red hair is Burn, and the one with the silver hair is Keith. They're brothers, and their mages. Burn is the mage of fire, and Keith is the mage of ice. Of course, I probably don't need to say the dont get along too well. However, they are both very powerful, and they have killed many out of pure pleasure. They seem to enjoy combining their powers to attack, but that is the only time they come together."
Mizuki: (whisper) "Keith's kind of cute."
Fang: (whisper) "What?!"
Mizuki: (whisper) "He is!"
Fang: (whisper) "Ok, let's just wait for the next one..."
Mizuki: (whisper) "I never get to have fun..."
Mizuki watched and watched, but didn't see anyone. For some strange reason, no one was coming in, yet, nothing was happening. Mizuki began to wonder if something was wrong, but Fang kept looking on, so she did so as well. Mizuki laid her head on her arms and began waving her legs around out of boredom. She looked at each mage once again. She looked at each hair color once, and wanted to criticize.
'The red hair on Burn is kind of nice, but a little bit too long. If it were shorter, then he would be much more handsome. However, his brother Keith isn't bad at all. His hair totally matches with his handsome looks. But what's with that blonde girl? She totally looks bad with her hair like that. I mean, even I could wear my hair better. But, still... considering she's evil, I guess she wants too go for the complete look. And that guy's gray hair is... GRAY HAIR?!'
Mizuki: (freaking out & whispering) "Don't look now... but there is a freaky gray haired guy standing there."
Fang: (whisper) "Calm down. It's just Genshin. He is the Mage of time. He hasn't made any kills from what I know, and he's pretty quiet . He's really old, so I'm guessing age has todo with it. He's pretty much the only mage that is over 24. But, like everyone else, he's definitely dangerous."
Mizuki: (whisper) "He looks... just like a monk, except with a staff and pants. He looks so innocent..."
Fang: (whisper) "I know, but remember, those are just looks. Even if you wanted to talk to him, barely anyone can understand him."
Mizuki: (whisper) "The drums stopped. Is there something wrong?"
Fang: (whisper) "No, they never stop unless all the mages are here."
Mizuki: (whisper) "I thought there were seven mages...?"
Fang: (whisper) "There are; but no one has ever seen the seventh one. I only know that the other mages are terrified of that one mage."
Mizuki: (whisper) "Wow...."
Fang: (whisper) "Let's get in closer, so we can hear what they're saying!"
Mizuki: (whisper) "Alright, let's go!"
