MOD: This is going to be a part of a quest that will take place in the Quest boards. This is just the opener. (Characters of any alignment or element are free to enter.) *This is the RPs first event! Milestone!*
Place: Mishima Village, Konogi's Tavern Time- Evening. Requirements- You must procure an invitation from the traveling Monk. How this occurs is at your discretion.
Amidamaru sits at his table, sipping his warm sake. With out any warning, the tavern doors burst open. A short man, garbed in robes enters with a scroll in his hand. He is apparently a monk of sorts.
MONK: "Ryuusei Amidamaru."
Amidamaru stands as his name is called.
AMIDAMARU: "I am he. What can I do for you?"
The monk kneels before the Ronin, and extends his hands, passing the scroll over to Ryuusei. The tavern's manager, and friend of Amidamaru approaches.
KONOGI: "So... what was that all about?"
AMIDAMARU: "...not sure... but in that satchel, he seemed to be carrying more of these scrolls."
KONOGI: "You must open it! That you must!"
Amidamaru removes the decorative red ribbon from around the scroll, and unravels the paper.
AMIDAMARU: "......interesting....."
SCROLL: "Warrior, thou hast been selected amongst many to do battle in the Grand Colloseum of Maltus. Hither thou whilst find many a challenge. Thy reward shalt be grand, and thy reputation reputed. Come hither, to Maltus."
KONOGI: "....those other scrolls... I'll bet they were invitations as well! That they MUST have been!"
AMIDAMARU: "Yes... this sounds strange... not at all like a Colloseum event. It didn't even mention name of the defending champion...."
KONOGI: "Maybe there isn't one....that it could be."
AMIDAMARU: "Perhaps. Though only one way to find out for sure."
Ryuusei grabs his twin Katana, and heads out the door. On his way to Maltus, to see the Grand Colloseum.. and get to the bottom of this.

Eiketsu walked on a dusty path humming to himself slightly, half asleep. Every so often his stomach rumbled. A figure approached from behind.
Monk: Mayonaka Eiketsu...
He turned to face the person, it was a monk.
Eiketsu: Oh, uh... Hey there, freind. Do I know you?
Monk: Most certainly not but I do know of you...
The monk kneeled in the same fashion he did to Ryuusei. The monk held out the scroll. Eiketsu respectfully accepted the scroll from him. Skimming over the message, Eiketsu pocketed the scroll.
Monk: Have a nice day, Mayonaka Eiketsu... I must be going now...
Eiketsu: Alright then, safe journey, freind!
Giving a slight wave, Eiketsu turned his sights on the Grand Colloseum.
Eiketsu: ... next stop, Maltus...
And with that, he walked off.
Though Eiketsu isn't the brightest of them, he could tell there was something strange occuring. Not everyday you meet a fan who gives you an invatation to a colloseum...

After living on the wing for the past three days, the half dragon finally spoted a settlement. He would pass it up, though, having flown over many of them before.
Looking to the setting sun in the west, made a quick calculation, adjusted his wings, and rose higher.
Tempest Storm, the once achlaimed Engineer, finally resided to his fate of being stuck here. After the fight with a dragon changing his life, it all didn't seem so bad. With the blue and yellow scales, wings, tail, horns, amplified lightning abilities, and claws, life wasn't so bad.
A gust of wind picked up, cold and icy from the north, throwing him off his projected course. It pulled at his pants and vest, collasped his left wing, sending him spiraling to the ground. His black goggles fell off, casting the sun to be brighter than it was to his oversensitive eyes. He lost all sense of location and judgement, falling into the trees below.
Laying the the ground for a few moments, dirt in his mouth, and his hair falling in his face. He reached around for his goggles, but they wern't there. he serched for a few more minutes, coming up empty handed.
Sitting on the side of a worn path, or road, he folded his wings back and decided to wait.. maybe someone would come along to help him at least.
A rustle of robes and the crunch of gravel under foot drew his attention to the right. With eyes closed tight, he raised a hand to the person.
"Excuse me? Could you help me find my goggles? I dropped them, and I need them to see."
"Yes... What do they look like?" The Monk asked, bending down to pick up the black eyeware from the road, not even a meter away from the dragon-man.
"Black, solid rimmed. there is a leather strap on both ends, and you can't see through one side." He said, slightly pantic.
The Monk walked over to him, putting the eyewear in Tempest's claw. "There. Are you Tempest Storm?"
Replacing the eyewear, he looked to the monk, standing up to nod. "Yes, I am."
The monk kneeled down like before, and held out a scroll. Once it was taken, he got up and continued on.
Temepst removed the ribbon, unrolled it, and tried to understand it. "Uhh... Hither? Maltus?"
In a split second bout of frustration, a lightning bolt arched off him with no control and hit a tree, slicing a branch clean off.
"Great, lost, and now I have this invitation to 'Maltus' When I don't even know where it is at. Just one big happy fricking Family!" More lightning shot off, scortching trees.

Bar fight. Liquor being thrown around in all directions. The sound of breaking glass and shattering jaws echo through the small building.
RED: "Ya' bastard! You said you'd pay 500GP, up front!"
Red DeLuce, Demon-Exterminator, has produced a captured Demon Soul to the Blackmarkets clerk. The clerk, who at one point offered 500GP for this soul, has now decided to hold back and have the price lowered. Red doesn't fall for it, and in the end, a fight breaks out. With a kick to the teeth, the Black Market clerk surrenders, and gives in to red's demands.
CLERK: "!!!! Ok! I...I give! HERE! TAKE IIIIT!"
He tosses the 500GP to the ground and begins to run.
RED: "Hey, asshole! You forgot something!"
Red throws the Mafuba at the clerk, hitting him in the back of the head, knocking him unconscious. Red goes back and collects the Mafuba, and relases the Demon Soul into the clerk's Devil's Talisman, sealing the soul in there.
RED: "A deal's a deal."
Red turns to walk away. As he turns, he finds himself face-to-face with a monk of sorts.
MONK: "Red DeLuke."
RED: "....eh, DeLuce...."
MONK: "Red Deluke?"
RED: "Close enough. Whadda ya want?"
The monk kneels, and produces a scroll.
MONK: "For you, Red DeLuke."
Red snatches the scroll, and has the monk escorted off the property by the bouncers.
RED: "Th' hell is this trash?!"
He reads the scroll.... He reads it again.... and once more, to make sure to memorize it.
RED: "Maltus?! Where th' hell is that?"
The Barkeep answers quickly.
BARKEEP: "...'Bout a two days hike from here....head south."
RED: "Yeh? Thanks. Who asked you, anyway?!"
Red storms out of the bar, but not before giving the black market clerk a goodbye kick in the ribs.
RED: "Low-life dog!"

A boy was looking through a window and watching the bar fight. With a silly smile on his face he watched the black market guy get beat up. A monk leaving the bar kept whispering to himself...
Monk: Stupid long name... I wonder if I could just call this guy Goku, or would that be disrespectful?
The boy bounded over to the monk and snatched the scroll.
Goku: Ooh, whats this? Is it for me?
Monk: Gimme that kid!! Its for someone important!
Goku: Is it for me? My name is Goku, too! Unless someone else is named Goku!
Monk: Golden Eyes... Coronet... Son Goku!
He kneeled in the usual fashion. Goku simply patted his head and glanced over to the window, just in time to see the black market person get stuffed in the ribs.
Goku: Oh, gotta go!
The golden eyed boy rounded the corner, bumping right into DeLuce, and fell over. The people who saw DeLuce's brutality were just leaving the bar, and thought that this boy was going to have his head cleaved off.
Goku: Oh, hiya Red-sama!!
He waved the scroll infront of DeLuce's face. People gasped and went into loud whispers...
Goku: Look what I got!! Where're we goin'? Are we gonna get some food?

The hooded figure moved along, slowly. He never tired, but his body was only able to take limited stress. And he wasn't in a hurry, as he was still thinking of cruel things to do to Sull d'Har Chiom... This was enough torture to the actual owner of the body, H'yan d'Har Chiom. Once a powerful mage, now with his will and his contact with his body broken by another, powerful mage...
A monk approached. "H'yan d'Har Chiom, mage master?" he asked. "Yes?" answered Thiorex through H'yan's body. "This message..." H'yan's hands grabbed it, and the monk left.
"Mhm..." H'yan's body smiled, as his soul frowned at the crueltys that went through his head. "Interesting... I might have my fun... Pain to the father, pain to the son..."
Instantly, Thiorex sent a messenger to Sull d'Har Chiom, inviting him to the very same place, the Colloseum of Maltus. Several minutes later, the servant arrived.
"What? I don't..." "Your father awaits you there." "No... you're mistaking. He's dead..." Chiom sobbed. "No... YOU are mistaking. He will be taking part in..." Chiom whispers to the wind... "You are right... he seems to be there... Chiom changed into wind shape, leaving behind only a single tear.

Red looks at Goku.
RED: "Yeh, c'mon, squirt. Lets get some grub before we make tracks t' that... Malted or whatever..."
Red looks at the faces of the people leaving the bar. Some had smiles, some had fear, and some had that familiar "Did I miss something?" look about them.
RED: "Hey, you dead-beats! Hurry and get th' hell out. Bar's closin'."
BARKEEP: "Hey, that's MY job! Get outta here!"
Red walks out of the bar, and sticks his head back in the door once more.
RED: "I'll be back at 5PM."
The barkeep has a disappointed look on his face, then shrugs Red away.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Ryuusei is on the road, and on his journey comes across his friend Red DeLuce.
RED: "Heya, Ryuu, ol' boy...."
AMIDAMARU: "Red. Nice to see you again."
He looks at Goku.
AMIDAMARU: "You as well, young Goku."
RED: "So hey, what're you doin' around these parts?"
AMIDAMARU: "I was invited to Maltus for some sort of Colloseum event."
RED: "Malted, huh. Yeh, me an' kid here are on our way too. Gonna snag some goods first though. Wanna head to the diner with us?"
Ryuusei nods, and follows Red into a local diner.

The golden eyed boy waved at his master's close freind.
Goku: Hello!
The boy listened patiently to their conversation.
Goku: Malted? I didn't know we were going to Malted. Does this mean we get malted foods at Malted?
The boy trotted along side them to the diner.
~~~~~
Eiketsu had decided on taking head start on his journey.

Tempest had remained on the side of the road where he first landed, perched in on a rock now. He looked up as Eiketsu walked nearer.
"Uh, Excuse me, do you know where Maltus is? I got this Invitation from a Monk, and He left before i could ask him any questions."

Eiketsu had stopped and looked over at the being set on the rock.
Eiketsu:Maltus... a monk, eh? Interesting. Yeah, Maltus is south-east from here. Infact, I'm heading there myself. You can tag along as well if you'd like, freind.
Eiketu stood still and awaited the stranger's reply.

Temepst gets up, streching his legs abd back from his crouching position.
"Thank you. My name is Tempest Storm."
He sticks the invitation in a pocket of his vest. There truly was no problem in joining Eiketsu, since at least one of them would know where they were going.

Smirking, Eiketsu replied...
Eiketsu: Mayonaka Eiketsu. ((Eiketsu is his first name, japanese thing.))
Nodding his head in the direction they should be headed, Eiketsu led the way.

the trio of warriors had been in the diner for sometime now. A couple of hours had elapsed.
RED: "Heh heh! Ma-aaaan.... that wath *hic* thome hella good hooch, there....uh...whoever you were...."
MANAGER: "Yeh, we keep a li'l somethin' special for our regulars. If you wanna another shot or two of th' whiskey, lemme know."
Ryuusei sips his own drink, his preferred sake, and orders another bowl of fried rice.
AMIDAMARU: "We should be leaving soon."
RED: "*hic* Mhmm! Yeh, we shlurd be leavink shoon."
AMIDAMARU: ".........or not. Perhaps we should find shelter for the night instead."
RED: "*hic* Mhmm! Yeh, we shlurd be leav...eh... findink a room shoon."
AMIDAMARU: ".......check please!"
--------------------------------------------------------------------
The not-so-sober red is being leaned on Ryuusei's shoulder, and they stagger to a nearby Inn.
AMIDAMARU: "Goku, go in and request some rooms for us. I'd prefer Red's to be void of a personal bar. Make sure we're going to get our complimentary breakfast, too."
Ryuusei hands Goku some gold, and sends him in.
AMIDAMARU: "So, Red. How're you feeling?"
RED: "Zzzzzzz......good......zzzZZZZZZ"
AMIDAMARU: ".............."
-------------------------------------------------------------------
INNKEEPER: "AHOY! HIYA SHORT-STOP! WELCOME TO MY INN, BUDDY! WHAT TH' HELL CAN I DO FOR YA', SMALLFRY?! I'LL BETCHA NEEDA ROOM, EH?! HAH HAH HAH! OK THEN, HALF-PINT! TELL ME WHAT KINDA ROOM YOU'RE LOOKIN' FOR, JUNIOR!"
The obviously loud-mouthed Inn keeper has asked for Goku's requests....
