*Had made it fairly deep in the labyrinth it was... Massive!! She had took a spiraling path down for up to hundred feet and lit every torch on the wall all the way down until she came across this massive entrance which had statues with swords holding them towards the entrance they were giant statues at least 20 feet tall and there sword crossed she decided to enter and it would lead to a dungeon with many pathways and halls and rooms, inside were undead corpses necromancy was present... She drew her sword and ran forward cutting down all the zombies that tried to attack her she cut there bodies in half and heads checking the first door it was locked rather then move along she took a breath and 'bang!' the door was kicked open she walked in and found webs over the walls and Skelton's all over the room as if people took shelter here...* `"All these places are the same hopefully I can find some gold to bring back maybe a weapon or something for ai."` *She was so nonchalant about this as she desecrated all the corpses, there was a Skelton hand over a chest she lifted its hand with her sword and put it on the ground* `"Excuse me kind sir... Let's see what we have..."` *It was book of dragon magic with a coin purse she took it and shoved it in her satchel at the end there was an undead man on a chair his body didn't look to rotten he had armor all over his body she walked away and closed the door she wasn't going to disturb him yet she walked down the hall tripping a few traps flame trap, eeep! The flame bursted out covering the hallway she ran back into the room phew ...*
Marlene
*Thank god for echo location, but man... The sounds of everything overlapped and when she finally made it remotely close to her, she just literally had to follow the trail of dead bodies. Coming to the large door that had been kicked down, she took her normal form and stared at it cautiously before resting by her metaphorical bonfire and then walking through the metaphorical mist to find Ysildea.* "Hello? Ysildea?" *She whispered, carefully walking along the ceiling to try and find her... Better to be safe than sorry. By going this way, it was easy to avoid traps and gimmicks as well as any paserbys that were deemed zombie worthy. This was also one of the times she wished her sense of smell was mundane because- it reeked of rotton flesh. Covering her nose with her sleeve, she pressed on... Following the torches.*
Donnie
*Rose her sword to her shoulder proud of herself she dodged the flames, how unique she thought, and ironic she also used flames as she heard ai's voice as skittering on the ceiling inside the room, she looked up and jumped up grabbing ai by her waist and pulling her down with a smile holding her out like a small puppy* `"Hey aiiii I just went for a little exploring a few dead zombies here a few dead zombies there I made it to this room... Now your here! Wanna explore this spoooooky mine, dungeon labyrinth whatever they call it these days."` *She said with a proud look* `"Look look I found a book of dragon magic and a coin purse! Has at least 100 pieces of gold!"` *He sets sundown and shows her the book excitedly and the gold*
Marlene
"You just left. No one knew where you'd gone or if you'd been taken AND you're injured. At least leave a note..." *Now holding a dragon book, she just stared at her with a very stern expression.* "I'm going to leave in the middle of the night one day while we're outside unfamiliar ruins and say nothing, and then when you find me after an hour of panic, I am going to happily hand you a book, and a pouch of gold." *Did she see where she was coming from?? Ok, fine, explore but take someone or write something hell- carve it into the side of the cart she didn't care! But she wanted to make it clear that this shouldn't become a habit.*
Donnie
*Lowered her head as she understood what she did wrong and lowered the book and pouch of gold* `"Oh..."` *She placed it back inside the bag slowly as ai said she would leave in the middle night one day and do what she did she truly understood why ai was in such a panic her face was red as she didn't like ai being mad at her she fought back tears* `"I won't do it again I promise."` *Her voice cracked slightly as she was truthful and her eyes looked to the ground she should have left a note or let ai or someone know* `"It won't happen again I won't ever do it again."` *She said telling the truth with her head low it was as if her mother was giving her a stern warning it would hit her where her heart is*
Marlene
"You can't do this. WE can't do this. I thought you had been dragged away or werw being held captive and couldn't fight very well because you had a *Sword* Run through you- I need you to help me understand why you do these reckless things! Do you know how much I love you??" *Gently taking her hands, she needed her to explain her logic because the math wasn't mathing.* "If I was hurt, wouldn't you be worried?" *And then pissed when she found her happily galavanting about.* "We let the other two know you are alive, that I am alive, and then the two of us can explore together, ok? **Ok??**" *It would be different if she was at 100%..But she wasn't. She was still bleeding, she could smell it, it was just not safe and not smart.*
Donnie
*She guessed it couldn't be avoided anymore she rose her head to look up at ai through her helmet, as her hands were taken* `"I run into battle head first... Because I need to be strong if I'm not strong people die people I love die, I do things to keep my skills honed... I was with child once... I had a lover..."` *She admitted, as she didn't know how to feel putting her hands over her helmet she didn't have to tell anyone this before but she could not avoid it any longer ai needed to know right? To understand why she is the way she is.* `"They were taken from me because I wasn't strong enough he always said I wasn't strong enough then the day came he, he..."` 

*The man she was with snapped and beat her until she lost her child she would explain this to ai she was 7 months along when he did it this happened years ago... She placed her head on ai's hands her own hands shaking* `"Then he just disappeared he said he would rather die then be with someone like me I was to masculine but he said I had to be strong I don't know Ill never know what I need to do... He said he loved me he was perfect until he found out I was with child then he just changed..."` she held no self pity only rage, anger and fear of losing her newly found loved ones.*

 *Her lover left to escape judgement for killing the child in her stomach and because he didn't want women that was no longer pure* `"I try to keep my mind occupied from my problems by fighting, or doing something, there could be more productive ways to keep my mind busy but when fighting is all I know what else am I good for? I can't cook, I won't be a good wife or mother, have no skills but fighting... So the day I find him I can kill him for what he did to me..."` *Taking a soft breath she looked to ai* `"Of course I would be worried it's all I ever do. All I ever do is worry what if you get hurt.."`
Marlene
*Well that was an awful lot of information to be given in the middle of a labyrinth mine littered with zombies. She was just... Stunned for a moment, and for a while she didn't say anything at all, she just listened. After a moment to process, she would try to reason with her* "Your skills do not define your worth. I cannot do anything of the things you mention **Or** Fight, does that make me worthless? Of course not. Right now your biggest enemy is yourself." *Time travel didn't exist, and the more she wanted to poison herself by holding on the more detrimental it would be down the road.* "I understand the want for vengeance... And I support your reasoning. But this isn't the way to do it.." *She couldn't replace the child she lost, but she could help her seek retribution however, she couldn't do that if she was dead.* 

"You're grown up, you can make your own decisions perfectly well I just wanted you to see things from where I was standing.." *With a small sigh, she'd look around the room. Well, they were here now and at least they were together.* "If this is an abandoned mine shaft... Maybe we can find some gold to hold us for a long while. That's what they were mining for, right? Or gems... We could easily sell those.." *Fine, fine.* "But we stay within each others eye sight!" *No Leroy Ysildea either.*
Donnie
*Raised her head with a smile she remained happy even though she mentioned what had happened to her the burning anger she had would always remain there as to why her hands were shaking it wasn't out of sadness never always anger. As she said her skills don't define her worth she nodded and let go of ai's hands gently she wouldn't understand how she was her own biggest enemy maybe because she lets her anger guide her decisions instead of reason.* `"This anger is so hard to control sometimes, for the sake of myself and you I'll try to control it better... If this isn't the way to do to get stronger can you show me a better way?"` *She tilted her head inquisitively raising her sword to her shoulder*

`"That I am. I do see things from where you are standing just try and be patient with me I'm very um... What do they call it... Hard headed it think? That might be the word."` *She giggles as she nodded* `"It seems like an abandon mine shaft but it turned into this strange dungeon or something after going down the spirally thinga majig."` *She said as ai said they could find gold or gems as she said they would stay within each other's sight she sighed defeated.* `"Fine fine! What about faedon won't he come down here in search of us?? His valkyrie doesn't speak."`
Marlene
"Oh no, no, no, I said this isn't the way to get vengeance and there are plenty of ways to fight without risking your life." *There were... And she could make money doing it and it was a lot more efficient than going off by herself.* "Oh thats right- can you not send a message via your..." *She sulked a bit as she seemed to say this next part with disgust.* "Your...**Bird**" *Who she totally should have eaten by the way!* "That way, we can keep going. What was their name? Your child?" *She was juat curious, she wouldn't ask anymore of she didn't want to discuss it.*

"You know, when we get to the next town we should look for a bounty board. I think that would be a good way to ger stronger. You never know what kind of opponent they'll have you hunt down" *True. And, she could make easy coin on the side.*
Donnie
`"Oh... I thought fight meant versus them in a death match all the time."` *She was confused at ai's mention fight without risking her life that's the whole thing about a fight? Maybe ai's saying she shouldn't hold back and not give anyone a fair chance instead just murder with all her might each time, yes, yes that made the most sense.* `"Oh yes what should I tell the bird to say?"` *She asked as she summoned the bird it phased through the ceiling over there heads flapping it's wings.* `"The name was kikyo imari they told me it was to be a girl just 2 months from delivery, said she was strong and healthy."` *She smiles softly.*

`"I don't like taking bounties they tend to cheap you out of your payment... It's best to just find strong beasts kill them sell there hide, teeth or anything that can be used for magical or recreational purposes the most money is made that way, like killing a dragon, they're wings, teeth, blood, scales each one having value more then any bounty."` *She spoke from experience but ai did say things less life threatening so ai's decision was better.* `"But bounty boards are usually the safer options..."` *She grumbled*
Russell
*The bird screeched at ai and instantly harassed her with his wings flapping them all in her face and landing on her head before flying around behind ysildea for protection* `"Raaahck! Crazy vampire, crazy vampire Raaahck! What message needs to be delivered Raaahck!"` *It hopped into ysildeas head*
Robert
*Slowly began to stir awake he yawned and his eyes opened moving the blanket off of himself he noticed ai wasn't there ysildea was gone the coffin lid was open, his mind was confused just waking up then red glaring eyes peering at him through the darkeness his breath paused for a few moments as the situation and circumstances... His lover was gone... Ysildea was gone.. Red eyes glaring at him... He began to panic internally as he sat up and reached for his sword he got into a fighting stance taking an inhale of air, standing up so quickly after just waking up he took a step and lost balance falling onto the ground hitting the wall of the carriage, before he decided nope, he exited the carriage or well fell out onto his side after his stumbling ordeal inside.

Panting softly as he looked up to the door of the carriage putting his left arm and palm down to lift himself up keeping his eyes on the door, once he caught his breath he slowly made it to his feet with some struggle after his mind began to fully wake up* `"Where is ysildea, ai?"` *He left around and began to search around the carriage under over, nothing... Sides .. Nothing then he saw the mine shaft entrance he thought to himself... They did not just go down there without telling him what if something happened?! Are they ok? But he turned back to the carriage or did... Whatever is in there kill them...*
Charles
*Was just standing there looking at faedon stumble and fall about inside the carriage she blinked as she rose a finger to try and explain with her hand signals, and there... He went stumbling outside the carriage fumbling around she didn't understand why? But ai said to keep him inside the carriage right? She didn't say how her arms extended grotesquely as faedon was standing at the entrance of the mine shaft she walked just to the carriage door exit only her red gleaming eyes could be seen as she wrapped her large demon like claws around him and his waist dragging him back inside careful and mindful of his arms as she managed to pull him back inside.*
Marlene
"Tell h- ack!" *Stupid thing and it's stupid feathers!* "Tell hi- off of there! I am not your perch!" *She blew her bangs out of her face before she tried again* "Tell- oh that is it!! Doth would like bare witness to crazy?? I shall oblige thee!! Come hither you black, parasitic turkey!" *To hell with the message! Its corpse would be a message as she chased it around the room until she took a mis step and fell down into a hole that formed in the floor from weak brick and bonding. 

She landed on her back whoch knocked the wind out of her, but the light from the room above provided a decent spotlight. Coughing and sputtering, she stood up and dusted herself off... She could hear water drops but she couldn't see much else.* "Ysildea??" *She called up to her, hearing a faint skittering, she jerked her head to her right, but saw nothing.*
Donnie
*As ai was having a hard time with her bird as they were fighting each other why was her bird so angry at ai it was kind of funny she started laughing as she chased the bird around the room she saw ai little self disappear, into the floor, she walked forward, and peaked down, she didn't panick she kneeled down and poked her head into the ground* `"Ai are you ok!! What's down there turn into a bat and fly back up here! Nevermind I'll come down!"` *She decided to pursue ai into the hole! She was worried that some monster may snatch her up before she could get to her* `"Damn bird go to faedon and tell him where in the dungeon not to harm his damn arms or me and ai will kill him!"`
Russell
*The bird flew up seeing ai fall down into the hole he screeched at her over and over in repetitive fashion* `"Serves you right! Serves you right Raaahck!!"` *It flew off to go find Faedon leave the two with there mess.*
Robert
*Standing at the edge looked back to the carriage to see two red gleaming eyes glaring at him just ominously in the shadows as he felt elongated arms wrap around his waist and began to pull him back inside the carriage he tried to grab his sword but its handle was pinned his arms held onto the outside of the carriage but rokus hands gently wrapped around his fingers and pulled them off gently and shut the door trapping him inside he was panting as he was sat down in his original spot he then only realized it was his valkyrie his heart finally returned back to normal* `"I thought you were going to eat me! Why are you always so ominous!"` *He grumbled as his heart beat slowed down* `"Why did drag me back inside I was going to go inside to help ysildea and ai."`
Charles
*Simple stared at faedon blinking as he went on his rant about whatever she didn't really pay attention all she knew was faedon stay until ai say otherwise. As he asked why she brought him back inside maybe just maybe... If he left her explain before running off she could have, but she just gave him a karate chop on the head like ai did to her before but she didn't know it wasn't supposed to be hard so this would leave a thonk sound on his head*
Marlene
*She heard the skittering again, almost like spider legs, but loud enough to be audible. Squinting in the darkness where she caught movement, she swallowed hard and as soon as Ysildea landed next to her, she covered abruptly covered her mouth with her hand... Not enough to smack her, but enough. She slowed her breathing as a ginormous, centipede like creature strolled and past them. This thing was enormous... And there were two. They came because they heard the crash but were completely blind... They had the body if a centipede, and the face lf a man. The skittering she heard was their legs. If she moved, or sneezed, they were fucked. 

They couldn't go up... Wing beats would surely draw attention so what she would do, is float to the other side of the room so she wouldn't step on any dubree. From here, she'd walk up to the ceiling right beside the hole, and hold her arms above her head for Ysildea to jump and grab onto. Once she did, if she did, she'd slowly walk across the ceiling with her hanging down... They just needed to get out of that room. Down a different cooridor she would go, leaving them behind. Only choice now was to go deeper.* "That's and Omukade.." *She whispered** "They dwell in mountains, aggresive, no weapon can pierce their slates... They are blind, but can hear very, very well."
Donnie
*Had landed on her two feet she went to speak as she rose her sword but wham! A hand was over her mouth however it wasn't a smack but she thought it was as how fast ai's hand traveled, she narrowed her eyes seeing the gigantic centipede skittering by a challenge?! The centipede dare challenge ysildea! Who has never known defeat! She wanted to stab it or swing at it she didn't know what it was only that it dare pass her without being scared.

As ai floated to the other side of the room she stood there looking at ai she herself couldn't float but as ai came back walking on the ceiling she jumped a little bit and held onto ai's arms as they made it to a new corridor without the centipede in it she let go and landed on her feet* `"Well they never met ysildea, before Hmpf."` *She pouted she wanted to fight them but it was probably the best she didn't seeing as no blade could pierce there hide.* `"Deeper we should go there may be a corridor that has a staircase up to the main dungeon."` *She said as they were basically in the sewers of the labyrinth she was walking the smell of sewage could be smelled with puddles of water occasionally now knee deep water as they progress and steel cage bars on windows of certain areas, lanterns hung unlit from the ceiling as it took a right turn and opened up to a longer deeper corridor*
Russell
*The bird finally made it to the carriage it screeched loudly as it flew inside the carriage through a window and began to flap it's wings at faedon* `"Ysildea, ai stuck in dungeon Raaahck! Ysildea ai in dungeon Raaahck ai fell ai fell!"` *It flew around hovering over Faedon harassing him with pecks and landed on his arms pecking at them* `"Time to go time to go Raaahck!"`
Charles
*Covered her ears the high pitch sounds of the birds voice caused her literally physical agony but she kept a numb expression however the moment the bird pecked at faedons arm her hand went like a baseball bat in a closed slapping motion thwacked the bird like a wet piece of paper on the wall, ai said to make sure he didn't hurt his arms that included outside things right? She blinked and looked at the birds legs twitching as it was on its side*
Robert
`"Ysildea and ai is in the dungeon alright see we need to go help them the bird said ai and ysildea are in trouble."` *He rose his hand trying to swat the bird away but as it landed on his arm and began pecking he winces and grimaces in pain then like the sound of a bat hitting a baseball the bird was gone* `"Thank you... I guess I can forgive you for hitting me to hard on the head."` *He rubs his head from her karate chop before.* `"Next time do it like this."` *He gave her a soft karate chop on her head and smiled* `"Let's go find them."` *He took rokus hand and lead her out the carriage he turned and summoned a dire wolf familiar it was the size of Aslan and it layed down crossing it's paws to guard the carriage, he began to enter the mine, followed the spiral path down and the torches with Roku beside him he let go of her hand* `"I need you to protect me best you can I can't fight that well but I'll try my best."` *Roku allowed him to go because ai was in a predicament but if it wasn't because of that she would have tied down Faedon so he couldn't leave if she had to.*
