NUMI: "Oh... my home, the Endolian Stronghold, was attacked. A lot of people were talking about it, so I guess you should already know about it. As you can see, I'm an Endolian. I'm positive that I'm not the only survivor, I need help finding them..."
LINK: ".... and to find the source of this attack, if possible."
Most likely, Link was having a telepathic conversation with Numi while they were at the tavern. In an instant, Link's eyes turned red, as he engaged the Sharingan; a rustle was heard to their right. Even Link's Sharingan couldn't catch what it was. Squinting over in the direction of the sound, his eyes returned to their normal state. And so, they continued through the forest.

*Frost uses his magic to create a light that brightens the path*
FrostXero:Hmm it is getting dark soon. I might as well be useful as a lantern too.
*Frost watches Link throwing his object into the forest.*
FrostXero: Hmm need a little light on the subject or just a little paranoid eh Link?

Wraknorian: "I can check if there are any humanoids near us now. Perhaps I can track him down." He sits down next to the next tree, focusing on locating all living humanoids near them. He stops when Miorix falls onto his lap. Miorix: "Eh?" Wraknorian: "Actually, never mind. Let's go." He walks on for a moment, then remembers what they had been talking about. Wraknorian: "So, about this stronghold... anything you know about this attack?"

NUMI: "No, me and two other Endolians were away during the attack. The two went in to help, but never came back."
The little girl's eyes shifted down to the ground, obviously she was about to cry. Link promptly pat her on the head, and smiled a a reassuring smile.
LINK: "I'm sure they're fine."
The moment the boy had finished his sentence, a huge beast, looking to be a cross between a wolf and a bear sprung out of the forest, letting out a deafening roar; Numi let out a scream. Link was able to whip around and fix his hands into the beast's jaws, preventing them from closing over the top of his head.
LINK: "Hey, little help over here!!"
He fixed his feet against the underside of the beast, and managed to kick it off. His hands were bleeding from catching the animal's teeth. It was obviously not native to the forest. Taking advantage of the blood on his hands, as well as the fact that the beast had backed off for a moment; he used the Doton Tsuiga no Jutsu. As soon as his hands came in contact with the ground, symbols erupted out in a small circle, three dogs appeared.
Link barely dodged a second swipe from the beast, before grabbing Numi by her collar and tossing her in the air, the largest dog caught her, and bounded away into the forest. The two other dogs leapt at the best, only to be beaten, and disappeared.
Snarling, the beast circled around, and decided to go for what seemed to be easier prey, the drunk Miorix.

*Frost makes a make shift flashbang by using his power of lighting and light to create an orb.*
FrostXero:Hey ugly! Why dont you go for some one your own size eh?
*Frost facing toward the beast's backside threw the orb and making it explode just before it gets in the beast's eye sight.The orb making no damage but hoping to catch the beast attention. He then pulls out the marasume and the familiar green aura enguls his right and enflames the sword to about a half a meter form the tip of the sword.*
FrostXero: I've been waiting for a challage maybe you could bring it

The sudden flash, didn't affect the beast at all. Instead, it just seemed thoroughly pissed off. Instead of attacking Miorix, as it originally planned to; it whipped around and charged at Frost. Baring it's fangs, it leapt at Frost, ready to sink it's teeth into his face.
Link, was hiding in the shadows, his hands trembling. The beast's saliva was poisonous. He pulled out a tube of ointment, and quickly spread it over his palms before wrapping them hastily with cloth; he pulled on his gloves.
The dog that Link had summoned, had run away a safe distance, it had stopped. It's ears were perked up, listening for anything, ready to dart away at the first sound. It paced back and forth, Numi had scrambled onto it's back, and was gripping his fur tightly.

Miorix's pupils grow larger for a moment, then smaller. He tries to focus, and draws his swords. He manages to keep his balance, and doesn't sway much, but isn't looking his best. His smile is still on his lips...
Miorix: "Eh, you're lucky today... usually, I'd take you down before... breakfast. When I eat breakfast..."
His eyes grow unfocused for a moment as he rambles, but then focus again...
Wraknorian, in the meantime, has also drawn his weapon, and is holding it at his hip in his right hand. His left hand is pointed at the beast, and he is gathering magick for a fire spell. Yet he waits, making sure his spell will be potent enough. The moment Frost teleports, he also unleashes his flame pillar, causing a meter-thick pillar of fire to descend from the sky.

The beast leapt away, dodging both attacks, and remaining unharmed. It had backed up under a patch of moonlight, the silver light, highlighting it's features. It snarled, baring it's fangs. The beast had a deep red coat, with black outlined eyes, and crimson, bloodshot eyes. It was covered in long, thick scars. To sum it up, the beast looked extremely old; experienced in battle and war.
Link's healing factor, was slightly supressed due to the poison. He nearly toppled out of the tree, as Frost's lame comment reached his ears. Though, he managed to catch himself, and scrambled back onto the branch. He glanced over his shoulder, catching sight of the beast in the light of the moon. His eyes widened in surprise, before narrowing, engaging the Sharingan. Without hesitation, he leapt down from the tree, a kunai clutched firmly in his trembling right hand. His left was holding shuriken.
The beast... grinned. Link merely returned the grin, tilting his head slightly. His hands were still trembling badly.
BEAST: "Ah, there you are, child.... Hn, you expect to fight, with wounds like that? You'll only spread the poison faster, foolish boy."
LINK: "Yeah, thanks for your concern."
BEAST: "Apparantly, you haven't made much progress, at all. A shame. He won't be pleased."
Before Link could give a reply, the beast turned tail, and faded into the darkness. But from that darkness, leapt three others, apparantly the same race as the other beast. They merely grinned at them, looking quite eager for a fight, as well as a meal.
LINK: "Tch, why is it they always send in th' little guys?"
Another piece of information, that only Link seemed to understand. His mysterious past, seems to be more and more shrouded as time passes by.
One of the beasts launch themselves at Frost, threatening to sink it's jaws into his neck. Another sprinted at Wraknorian at blinding speed; whipping past his side, before turning around, and launching at his side, it's powerful jaws ready to tear through flesh and bone. The last, merely circled Link, looking quite amused at his prey, Link's trembling was growing worse. He was tense, his sharingan still active. Apparantly, these beasts were nothing to sneeze at.

Wraknorian focuses, and activates his fire dodge, increasing his speed. Then, he calls down another flame pillar into the path of the beast charging at him, before using both hands to swing his katana at the beast.
Miorix is still trying to focus properly, which isn't working as well as he would like it to. On the other hand, he is slowly becoming sober. He stands aside, knowing that right now, he's probably not very useful, and takes a defensive position for the moment.

FrostXero: Think thats gonna do it
*Frost activates his life force barrier surrounding him in a green orb, the beart defecting off it.*
FrostXero:Hungry little guy? Eat this!
*Frost manipulates the orb to srink to his finger and starts throwing multiple orbs at the beast.*

The beast punched right through the fire pillar, recieving a few burns; it's own safety didn't seem to concern it. It only wanted to take out Wraknorian. Smoking, and somewhat aflame; the beast ducked and sidestepped Wraknorian's swing, and sprung up at his face while he was still in midswing.
The beast was stopped by Frost's force barrier, but tore at it with brute force, before back off. It had almost broken through. The beast dodged Frost's orbs with ease, before leaping at his face, before it was within a foot's distance to Frost; it vanished, only to attempt to sink it's fangs into Frost's shoulder from behind.
The beast had attacked, Link quickly rolled out of the way, as the beast tore at the ground where he was a second earlier. Before he even had a chance to get up, the beast was on him. He had dropped his shuriken, and had managed to catch the beast's fangs on his kunai; which was already cracking. With his damaged hands, it would take a lot of trouble to bring out his swords, and he didn't have such time at his use.

Miorix realizes the fact that he is in danger, and concentrates on clearing his head a little more. He considers casting flare, but decides against it. It requires more concentration than he can muster...
Miorix draws both swords and runs in, attacking the beast attacking Wraknorian. ------------- Wraknorian moves out of the way, wielding his katana defensively now. He raises his heat shield, and hopes the combined heat of his sword and the spell will be enough to wear out the beast. He whispers a few words, and hopes that Sull is listening...

The beast attacks Wraknorian ruthlessly, but is caught in his heat shield. It quickly backed off, snarling, dispite the severe burns it recieved, it refused to stop it's merciless attack on Wraknorian. The beast took another bite at Wraknorian's side, before having to back off and dodge some of Miorix's attacks. All Miorix succeeded in doing, was piss it off. Instead of trying to leap at Wraknorian again, it lunged at Miorix, ready to tear out his throat.
Link's kunai broke, and the beast's fangs drew closer to his face. Luckily, he reacted quickly, and his elbow collided with the beast's face, causing it to flinch, and back off slightly. It was just enough for Link to roll backwards, and gain some distance between them. The beast snarled, and recovered from the blow. It was pissed off. The beast lunged at him, and a silver blue light erupted from his hand, Novaku was gripped in his hand. He swung it at the beast, but it was too late, his sword was much too long and clumsy against the fast beast, that refused to back off. Instead, he dodged him, and with another flash, Novaku was gone. Instead, a silver golden light erupted from both hands: the Balam Iztetl. The two lunged at one another.
