Lumino didn't really see the point in talking in private, but he figured that he would humor the swordsman. After all, another sword in this crazy adventure of theirs would always be helpful.

Stopping near an old oak tree. Bless turned to face the mage and asked him "So, what do you want to hire me for?"

Lumino scribbled something on a piece of paper, and handed it to the swordsman.
You are to protect the women we were with. Do not alert her to the person who hired you, or that it is a job. Do well with this, and I may have further contracts for you later.

After the mage filled Bless in on what he wanted him to do. Bless decided he would do it seeing it will be an easy job with that Kenshin fellow around. "I can do that boss," Bless said to the mage "But, I have two questions, what is your name and would you like me to protect you too?"

Lumino quickly scribbled his reply on another sheet of paper.
No need to protect me, it might look odd. And my name is Lumino, do not call me boss or tell anyone about the job I have hired you for, or the fact that I hired you at all. Make up your own story for why you follow us if you'd like.
Lumino waited until the swordsman had read it, then took the pieces of paper and burned them to ashes.

Katara sheathed her sword and stepped out of the cabin. A horseman came to her, it was one of her father's men. "Dame Katara! We have a situation!" he said. "Yes?" Katara responded. "A group of Bern footsoldiers have launched an attack on out west flank. We need your help, we cannot hold them off!" he said. "I'll rally Lumino and the other and be right over!" Katara said, taking off.
She ran out to where Lumino, Bless, and Kenshin stood. "We need to get to the west flank now!" she said before heading towards the area herself.

Sokka batted away another axe and sliced the wielder's head off. Lyon, a nomad and one of his childhood friends, had just saved him by shooting a man coming from behind. "Thanks, I owe you one save!" he said. "No need, it's what we're here for. To drive back these infidels!" Lyon answered, shooting another man. "I hope that runner gets back with Katara soon! She's gotten even better than me," Sokka added. "Ya, me too! Cover me and I'll cover you! let's head for their leader!" Lyon shouted and a fireball just missed them.

Kana aimed a fireball at the mage who just missed Sokka. When she hit him, he retaliated with one aimed at her. The fire singed the end of her braid. The shot hin again, this time killing him. "Thats what you get for messing with a girl's hair!" she screamed. She had stayed back with Saul protecting her like Sokka wanted her to. "Chieftain! I think Sokka will need some help," she said, spying the myrmidon and his freind running into a crowd. "Stay next to me Miss Kana, and we shall," he answered. The chief told a few of his men to cover their sides and rear, and the headed into the fray along with Sokka and Lyon. "Let's finish these murderers off!" Saul said, holding up his sword and charging alongside Kana.

Post by Kenshin on Oct 4, 2007 3:32:12 GMT -6
Kenshin had stood there after they all rushed towards the west flank. "Won't they learn, there's no point in fighting to keep their homes. All of that stuff is replaceable, loved ones aren't." Kenshin went back and got fully dressed and joined everybody on the battle feild. He was in the rear looking at what the last of the warriors in this village had to offer.
"Only if Alan was here, it would be easier." Something sparked into Kenshin, as if he was truely ready for the leader role. He walked into the frey sword drawn towards a man. "You there, you don't look like you're well suited for being into the meele so I need you to help evacuate the non combant people in the village." His eyes scanned the rest quickly "I don't think either Katara or Sokka will want to just leave but one needs to survive just in case." "SOKKA" Kenshin shouted. "Help this guy here and leave a few people here and take the rest with you to get everybody out of here. Defending this lands is a hopeless battle, know when to cut your loses and high tell it. Saveing your home isn't as important as saveing the ones you love, you can always relocate but a brother or sister can't be replaced." Kenshin found it weird they wasn't trying to attack him right away, he figured they heard the stories of the other day.
They were people as well, he figured they just feared him. One of them realized he must be a leader or something. He charged towards Kenshin only to have his sword blocked. Both blades were locked, a few other bern soilders knew they outnumbered these people 4 to 1 so they all started to gang up on Kenshin.
Kicking the man away that had locked blades with kenshin he turned to block one man's attack when he got hit. The one who hit him must of really sucked becuase all he was able to do was make Kenshin lose his footing, honestly who wacks somebody over the shoulder with a lance. Turning Kenshin cut his throat spilling his blood all over the place. The other three feared for their life and feld towards somebody that looked like an easy kill. "I'm nowhere as strong as Alan and they think I'm stronger or something. That or they sent a bunch of new recruits and that one banged up my arm kinda good."

Lumino saw it, his chance was coming. Now Kenshin would be alone, outnumbered by the hundreds, and he was already being attacked. He and Bless had reached the battlefield, and he grabbed Bless's shoulder. He pointed to Katara, and gestured far away with the retreating villagers. Once she was gone, then he could do it. He thought slowly and carefully. He would only have one chance on this, and if he screwed it up, he would fail. He was quite glad he hired Bless, as it was likely both he and Kenshin would die this day.
In the home of the women he had stolen, he would die.

Bless came running at full speed to aid the girl as Lumino wanted. As he neared her he saw a Bern soldier come at Katara with a sword. So, with one sweeping motion Bless drew his sword and sliced the enemies soldiers head right of his body. "Girl its time to get out of here now, Kenshin and Lumino can handle this themselves!" Bless shouted over the fighting that was surrounding him.

"My name is Katara, and I am no girl! I am a swordmaid, and I must fight!" Katara yelled at the man. She dodged him and ran back to the battlefield.

Sokka ran though the town, collecting the older men, women young and old, and children. Then they left, Sokka decided they would be safest if they went to that castle. He saw Katara run past a new man with green hair. "Hey!" he called to the man, "I need you to tell Kenshin that we are going to find sanctuary in the Santaruz Castle," he told the man.

Does she have to be a pain? Bless thought to himself. Losing his focus talking to the girl, he didn't see another soldier coming to attack him. Then pain just seared through his body as the soldier happend to stab him with a spear right into his collarbone. Bless stepped back and managed to get a thrust at the soldier, but ended up missing. Luckily, a farmer from the village came and killed the soldier with his pitchfork. "Thanks." Blessed told the farmer as he ripped the spear from his collarbone. "Katara, we need to go protect the villagers that can't fight, they don't have anyone to protect them!" Bless yelled trying to trick the girl into running away with him.

"I have duties with my lord Kenshin. I cannot leave him. You are strong, as is my brother and Kana. You will make it without me," Katara shouted back. She kept running.
