"I barely had a chance to talk to him. I think he was blameing himself for her death. Also is that the Mani Katti? I heard the guy who ran the shrine for it wouldn't let anybody take it, and it couldn't be taken out of it's scabbard." Kenshin then takes the slim sword out. "It looks like it's about to break anyways. I had a few fights with it. Also that whole thing with Sain's knight takeing over."
Kenshin then looked at the rest of the group with Matis and seen Matthias "Hey, haven't seen you in a while Matthias." Kenshin then looked back to Matis. "Who else did you get to join us?"

Dray'Gon stepped forwards, and introduced himself. "My name is Dray'Gon. I had heard of a group of travellers whom were battling the bandits, and came to get their assistance, and help them drive the bandits out of Nabata." He seemed proud as he said this. "I gather that you are one of the allies we came here to find?"

Matthias nodded to his old companion. "Yeah, it's been awhile, hasn't it?" he glanced over at the mostly new group of warriors. "I think introductions are best left to them... hey, where the hell are Sokka and Alexia?" He turned completely around to study the group. He saw Katara but no Sokka... "Dammit, did those two run off together?" he cursed, glaring at Katara as though it was her fault. "I'm gonna have to go get them, no way I"m lettin' those two wonder around by themselves." He began heading for the door, but was stopped part way by an impressively muscled knight. "Are you Matthias?" he asked in a booming voice. The scruffy archer glared up at him. "Yeah, that's me, now let go!" "You're to come with me," the knight instructed. He looked at the two lords. "Don't worry, nothing bad will happen to him." "Like hell nothing bad will happen. THe last time I got drug off by an Ostian knight they wanted to kill me! Dammit, let go!" at this point the knight began dragging the archer away.

Kenshin was quickly near Matthias with his Iron blade drawn. "Let him go then explain why your here."
Kenshin wasn't about to lose a good soilder from what he could see, and a friend to an unknown person. Matthias did go to the base in Bern and it could be one of them, Kenshin didn't want to take any risk.

The knight sighed, but loosened the grip on Matthias's arm. He leaned in close, trying to prevent the knowledge from spreading to Matthias. "As a reward for his services to Lycia, he is to be promoted to the rank of sniper," he explained to Kenshin. "However, it was decided that it would be kept a surprise for him."
Matthias strained to hear, but couldn't make out anything. "See, this is exactly why I didn't want to come back here. They're probably plannin' ta do somethin' awful to me."

Dray'Gon seemed confused over all the fuss. "Why would they want to wish you any harm? Have you not been instrumental in fighting against the bandits?" He then said to himself, as he held a hand to side of his face, and closed his eyes, "I can see it'll take a while to fully understand humans."

Matthias looked over at Dray'Gon. "I sort of signed up for service with Ostia, but they sort of didn't do a damn thing about the bandits. I got pissed because they all wanted to sit on their asses and stare at the bandits. So, I got sick of it all and took off. 'course, the fact that Alan and I once saved a village doesn't seem to count. Nor does my aid in the assault at Santaruz. Or the bandit fort. Or that little border village. Or the retaking of Santaruz. THey just care that I left without asking permission."

Dray'Gon looked thoughtful for a moment. He had done much the same when he left his home to seek outside help. Would this be what he'd expect when he returned? No. My people are different from these humans. I may be scolded, but they will see that my actions were for the best of our kind. He looked back at Matthias, and said, "I do not believe I can help you. I came here seeking help, and I do not wish to further any ill relations between my kind and yours." It almost seemed he did not wish to say that, however as he turned away.

Kenshin belived the guy. "Fine, but don't force him to go. I shall go along to make sure everything is fine, my hired bow will come too." Kenshin turned to Albel "Albel, get ready we're leaveing."
Albel sighed as he said "Again, when will we just rest. All we've been doing is moveing around since I first joined you guys. I'm starting to think this was a mistake."
OoC:Nobody flip out since I RPed for another "memeber". Albel is my alt if most of you haven't figured out yet.

OoC: really? I honestly had no idea.
"What? You're letting him drag me away! You bastard! I can't believe it! You f**k**g bastard!" Matthias was still screaming as he was drug off by the knight.
OoC: Sorry for the cursing, this is matthias, not me. Thankfully, everything is censored...

OoC: Everything except bastard. But I doubt any of us care. You hear curses just by stepping out of your house, or turning the TV on. Oh, Kenshin, by the way, you already knew I had the Mani Katti. You used it against that Ostian general, remember? Then you threw it back at me, and started using the Slim Sword I had given you.
BiC: "Things will never change, will they? Come on, everyone. I don't want to miss this." Matis said, following the guard, Matthias, Kenshin and Albel, back into Ostia's castle.
Matthias...a Sniper...Not many are promoted in ranks. Last time I heard of a rank promotion was when I was a child. A warrior by the name of Oswin had become a General after serving Ostia for a long while.(Was it Ostia?)
"Just hope he doesn't get overconfident from all this..." he muttered, entering the castle.

Dray'Gon was still bewildered by what was going on, but had no other choice but to go along. He had so much he had to learn about humans, assuming he could ever learn all there was to know.

'Don't worry about him, he'll be fine. Anyone seen Sokka and Alexia though? We came here in such a hurry that I didn't pay much attention.'

Matthias stumbled back into the room, muttering to himself. He looked a lot more impressive than he did before he left, the promotion showing in his armor and bow. "You don't get any f**k**g money, noooo! We're giving you this damn honorable promotion instead of the 1000 gold you're supposed to have earned. f**k**g sons of a..." he continued ranting for a while. Stopping when he got close to the others. "'Anyone seen Alexia or Sokka yet? I think they ran off..."

"I was not aware that there was anyone else in the group, so I do not know them, or where they are now. It would be my guess that they were left behind in Sacae." Dray'Gon grumbled a bit as he added, "Will this cause further delays as we head back to find them?"
