Cmpuncle:<br/>Berserker spares a glance in your direction.  You're not sure, but you think you can detect a minor edge of annoyance in her expression but she turns back to Lu Bu before you can be sure.  "Alright then. Rider, you said you wanted a challenge. I propose we postpone our fight until tomorrow night night. That's when I'll be at full power.  Then we can go at it to both our hearts content. So waddaya say?"<br/>Lu Bu scoffs at the offer, "and why shouldn't I finish you off here and now? Are you too chicken to face me now?!"<br/>Berserker shakes her head, "nah. I just thought YOU of all people could provide a worthy challenge for me. I only propose we wait till tomorrow night because we'll be able to fight under the cover of darkness, away from the prying eyes of the public and we'll both be at full strength. Unless you fear you will not survive long enough to fight me? "<br/>Lu Bu's expression sours considerably, "I fear no man or woman on the battlefield. I am the greatest warrior of all time, no one shall defeat me before tomorrow night, nor will you emerge from our battle victorious! We shall meet in the park and have a glorious battle!"<br/>With that, he turns his horse around and departs, presumably to reunite with his master.<br/>Berserker warily watches him leave, and only after several tense moments have passed after he has left your sight does she begin to relax. Keeping her guard up, she retreats into the building where you and Izzy are still standing.<br/><br/>One of her eyebrows shoots up as she looks at you and Izzy.  Her gaze drifts down to where Izzy is still holding your hand. Izzy, upon realizing she hasn't yet let go, quickly releases your captive hand and turns to the side. Berserker looks like she's about to laugh, but holds her tongue.  Her amusement is replaced by an oddly satisfied expression  that lingers on her face for a moment before she approaches the two of you. She seems to be struggling to find the right words to introduce herself properly to you.  "Hello, um.....master?" she says to you, a curious expression on her face. She sniffs the air, absent mindedly and seems to become a bit more confident. "Yes, you are him alright. Hello master, my class is berserker, but you can call me Luna."<br/>Izzy turns to regard 'Luna' with skepticism.  "You claim to be a berserker, yet you retain you intelligence, and I know of no epic hero by the name of Luna. Who are you really?"<br/>A mysterious smile sneaks its way across her glowing face.<br/>----------------------------<br/>Undercover:<br/>You sense more than hear your partner chuckle, <Simple.  If they had intended to control and manipulate you, do you think they would have let you inform me of the problem at all? If you only started hearing their voice after donning the necklace, and you woke up hearing them, that means during our conversation, the mysterious woman already had access to your head. She could have easily made it harder for you to inform me, if not make it impossible. But she didn't. While I do not trust them, nor do I feign comprehension of her motives, my gut says that she is not out to harm us yet.><br/>-----------------------<br/>Ninja: Current time: around 2 in the morning. 4 hours in the past.<br/>Caster shakes his head, "Thank you. While food sounds good,  what I need right now is rest. You should get rest as well, it will help replenish some of your mana. My continued existence here requires a steady stream of mana from you. If you run low, I will not be able to sustain myself for long, so we both need to recuperate after that last battle, preferably sooner rather than later."<br/><br/>
