Has anyone seen a man who… well, looks like a clown? I saw him go into the portal but hasn’t come back yet. Also trying to find Miyabi who may or may not have gone through the portal. She’s a Poncle - really small and wears a butterfly cap. Everyone else that I know of who went in has already come back…

Oh. And a man named Sabin. His friend doesn’t think he used the portal but is also missing. He’s tall and muscular. With blond hair, blue eyes, and a loud laugh.
[Unfiltered]

If anyone sees them please let me know? How big is this place anyway?

Meryl. I’m going out to the desert for awhile. Don’t worry I’ll be back.

[Yes he’s off to search for the missing in the desert. He knows it’s a mostly fruitless endeavor; but he has to try. Feel free to run into him on his way.]

[Brook peers ahead] There does seem to be a figure there in the distance! It is rather hard to tell however, with this sun blinding my eyes.

Ah, but being a skeleton, I don't have any eyes! Yohohoho! Skull joke!

[A stick? Well, he would be a rather large stick if showing up from that great of a distance, but then this demon is 6'3" and add the black, and well yeah, he's noticeable.

He's not moving towards the group or anything, still paying far more attention to the barrier. In fact he's moving towards the east, and then stops.

He can hear the voices slightly in the distance, but they are far enough away to not be worth his notice yet. He's listening to see if they come closer, because then he will need to take notice.]

[Vash just has crazy good vision so they're still a pretty good distance away - he squints trying to get more details] I'm not sure if it's one of the ones we're looking for. It's a guy and he has blonde hair I think... so it could be that Sabin guy.

Hm... maybe. [ She's squinting. ] I'm not sure what he looks like.

You can tell his hair color from here? Impressive.

Does anyone know how Sabin normally dresses?

Unfortunately I have never met the man, so I do not!

[Well, Vash was told Sabin was tall and muscular along with blond, this demon is tall, but doesn't look very muscular.

And the distances must have been closed enough that he can hear the voices of humans, somewhat, so he's going to abandon what he was doing and instead appear before the group. No weapons are visible for now.]

More humans in the desert? [Well, actually he's now looking at Brook and is unsure what to make of the skeleton with an afro, but Brook's appearance is obviously not bothering him beyond that.] And to think, I was starting to grow bored again.

[JAIgheahea GAH! Where’d he from come?! Well now that the distance is closed it doesn’t LOOK like there is much muscle hiding under his clothes… but still - better safe than sorry!] You’re name wouldn’t happen to be Sabin would it?

[He's going to look up at the group, and it will be a bit more obvious that this man is also not exactly human.]

No, it wouldn't be.

[So what if he's not human? Kurtis is friends with both angels and demons.]

What brings you to the desert?

[Except this one is very decidedly unfriendly. And interestingly, Kutis doesn't much faze him either, though that coloring is strange.

Still, he can't reveal much about his reasonings for being here. If he says it's orders, then they'd want to know whose, and well that is among the things he cannot speak of, no matter how much he'd love that sort of chaos.]

Explorations. Of course, I'm most definitely not going to object to a bit of entertainment. You know what they say about all work and no play...

[And he's smirking, though no sign of his weapons yet to hint at what sort of entertainment he is referring to.]

Well of course! Work can be a very tiresome thing after all. Funny you should mention entertainment though - I happen to be a musician! Would you care for a tune?

[Oh wait] Ah, though we really should continue our search.

[Psh. Humans are over rated. Oh… sorry Meryl. And besides - they never said if Sabin was human or not and ONE of your eyes looked blue so it was worth a shot. Vash gives a small nod at Brook’s comment] Yes. We’re looking for some people. Have you seen a Poncle? It’s kinda like a fairy I think. Really tiny, she wears a butterfly cap and her name is Miyabi. We’re also looking for a guy named Sabin who has blond hair, blue eyes, very muscular, and a loud laugh. And a… uh… well… Clown man. But his name is Kefka and he could be dangerous. [And while you’re unfriendliness is putting Vash on slight alert. He isn’t too worried yet. Entertainment is very important after all!]

Edited 2009-12-04 14:45 (UTC)

[Good Vash, very good instincts there. Because this demon's idea of entertainment is shedding your blood.]

None of the worthless humans who came here were capable of speaking. [One oinked, one couldn't talk, yeah.] Not that I care about the names of those who amuse me.

[And now his swords do come out. It's a really neat trick in fact, because they appear to have been hidden up his sleeves the way they appear, but the two swords are far too long to have been hidden there.]

But since more have come, you can serve to entertain me.

[Kurtis reaches into his fanny pack and pulls out a pair of blue gauntlets, clearly made for human hands.]

I would not recommend starting a fight. You're facing a Defender of Earth.

[ Meryl is keeping quiet, for right now, wondering just how Vash's luck of doing good and receiving bad has followed him to an entirely different dimension. Still, she has her hands ready to snatch up her derringers, just in case. ]

[Brook squeaks and is then oddly quiet for several seconds. He draws his sword from his cane.]

I believe we have vastly different tastes in entertainment, sir.

[Vash’s hands stay limp at his side - only move just slightly closer to the gun hidden in his coat. Don’t be fooled he can draw faster than someone can blink and right now he’d like to try to end this without fighting. He moves forward slightly - out of what he believes is the rang those swords can swing but trying to make himself the closest target. He laughs nervously.] Hey now! Careful! Those things look sharp!!

[The objections just make this even more amusing. Though now he's thinking Kurtis is just a bag of hot air like most people of that sort he's dealt with. Or else he might be the most interesting of the group, though what is a Defender of the Earth? Is that something like the Flame Champion? If so, then he's going to be the main target.]

They are very sharp. But that just means you won't have to suffer long. And a defender of a useless element? Hah, you are probably as weak as the Flame Champion was.

[And since Vash is the closest, he becomes the target. Being tall and wiry does have an advantage, and this demon is pretty fast on top of that. This isn't any sort of supernatural speed, but if Vash isn't quick at dodging, he will be finding out just how sharp both swords are, since Yuber does hit with both.]

[Good at dodging? Vash is the king of dodging. Hell, he’s been known to use it as an excuse to dance with pretty girls. And there might be a gun coming to rest just inches from your face when he’s done.] Do you think we could maybe discuss this without the sharp toys? Someone could get hurt… Like me!

Edited 2009-12-07 05:07 (UTC)

[Kurtis is used to fighting those with impossible speed, and he's get his gauntlets aimed and ready to fire, but he holds back, sensing that Vash is capable of handling the situation on his own, and that he doesn't want to turn this into a fight just yet.]

[And Yuber's very used to being sorely outnumbered. He's a demon who is summoned to fight in wars after all.

And a gun? Doesn't bother him, he's just going to use one sword to push it off to the side so it can't shoot him, because well, bullets do hurt and all. Other sword is going to indeed slash at Vash.

Yes, he's a horrible cheater with two weapons like that. And to think, he hasn't even pulled out any magic yet.] That is the point.

[And whether Vash is hit or not, he's moving backwards to make it easier to dodge attacks and he's going to starting chanting some magic. It's obvious he's not going to retreat willingly and his idea of amusement is a fight. He's very much craving some bloodshed right now.]

[It's a good thing Yuber isn't the only swordsman around here with extraordinary speed then. Brook blocks the attack meant for Vash with his cane sword.]

You attack us even though we have done nothing to you? [That scares him a lot, actually]

[Well, damn, trying to scare him into not fighting didn’t work. Not that he really thought it would but it was worth a shot. Vash uses Brook’s helpful block to jump back and try to shoot the other sword - hoping to break it before he can swing it at Brook. That… chanting doesn’t sound good. Uh- maybe he’ll answer a question and STOP IT?] What happened to the other people you saw!!

[ Meryl pulls out one of her derringers and aims it at Yuber the moment he attacks Vash. She's glad for his ability to dodge. It means he's okay, and that she doesn't have to shoot. She knows she can't fire without a deep guilt, but she will if she has to. She tries to keep her aim as the others bustle around. ]
