Thread: Sacred Army: Part I

"Just a robot." Vincent said to Tad. "It probably won't hurt anyone. If it was going to...Why would it have waited?" He turned to the robot.

"My name's Vincent." He said.

He really was coming out of his shell around these people. "Wait, is a robot a person?" He wondered.

"It's not like it's any stranger than anything else these days." She said.

Tad's prepared spells:

• Feliciana's Floral Frenzy - Vastly accelerate the plant growth in a small area
• Spiritwalk - Walk through walls
• Gaze of Glass - objects blocking one's immediate line of sight become see-through
• Magic Bullet - Shoot a ray of concentrated, positive thought to cure minor maladies
• Sealing Wish - Issue a short prayer to cure minor gashes
• Rock Block (x2) - A wall of stone rises up before the caster for protection
• Fireball (x5) - A conjure & throw a tennis ball sized sphere of flame
• Chain Lightning - throw a bolt of lightning that hits multiple foes

Tad said nothing in response, but lowered his hand and returned to his seat slowly, still eyeing the machine. Lizardmen and dragons were one thing, but robots creeped him out at the best of times. Well, mostly just the humanoid ones - their anthropomorphic design combined with their mechanical movements, deathly cold skin and the like was deeply unsettling to him.

"My name's Ame Kren. What's your story?"

"Monster hunter," Tad replied, "you?"

Destiny smiled, she blushed slightly and looked to Vincent "Aw, why thank you" She then looked over to Tad. They're both soo cute... Destiny was listening to her music, she could still here the others. The girl sat with her flute in her hands, she fingered through numerous songs for amusement.

"All of you are quite impressive, who do we have left?" Tye asked the group. "That is...other than myself" he chuckled. Wow, I have a lot to work with here... Tye was obviously impressed with his teams skills.

"A traveler mostly. I like to wander the world and explore. Forests, old ruins, cities. You name it, I've probably seen it. I also help a few people here in there if there are any problems."

Ahmal watched from the corner. The infidels were chatting to each other and seeming to have a good time. Chatting is not against the will of Allah, why are you angry with them? It was true, he always felt a burning rage. He overcame his feelings and spoke up.

"Don't forget me."

I should probably make some friends... Destiny smiled sweetly and turned off her headphones, placing them around the base of her neck. She then proceeded to get up and out of her chair, walking over to a chair next to Tad and by Vincent. She took a seat, at first she didn't say anything, she only continued fingering through songs on her flute.

"Oh, then it seems we have a lot in common then", the young wizard replied, taking his eyes off the machine at her words. He was about to ask for warstories when-

"Destiny," Tad said, now with a more cheerful tone, as he noticed the young woman having come to join them, "Ame and I were just discussing our previous travels. Pleasem tell us: where does an Angel call home?"

"I-I don't remember..." Destiny frowned. "They told me I fell from the heavens...they thought I was a meteor at first...at least that's what they told me" She looked up to Tad's face. "I don't remember much at all before then...just light, and warmth" Destiny smiled at the thought. One day I'll find out where home actually is...

SI-44 drew a parallel between itself and Destiny. They were both definitively unaware of where they came from. It hadn't reacted to the hostility, it had experience of human jumpiness in hostile situations.

"You lack first person memory of your past?"

"How do you know you can trust them? Not that it's not true, but...I don't trust the people employing us." Vincent said. He held his hand.

"Suspicion prudent. However, conclusions best reached based on observation."

"Well...they raised me, got me back on my feet in this world" Destiny replied. "I have been given no reason not to trust them...but yes Android, I have no memory of my past prior to a few years ago"
