Initially, while it would have seemed that Luca's attack had hit gloriously, striking him clean through the chest and leaving what would presumably be a bloody mess, it would come to light that the claw had passed through Gregory's body, Gregory's chest seemingly dissolving into the air as though he was nothing more then an illusion, his body nothing but mist. The body of Gregory would turn completely black, dissolving into the air as the real Gregory seemed to melt back out from the shadows, as though his physical being itself had been taken in by the darkness of the alleyway. <strong>"Hmph... Stubborn little..."</strong> The look in his eye hardened, and his sword started to glow with a black energy, seeming to almost steal power from the shadows as he prepared for his next attack.<br/><br/>However, that attack would never come, as Lyuk wasn't the only newcomer to the alleyway.<br/>"Hyaaaah!"<br/><br/>.......................................................................<br/><br/>(http://uc.exteenblog.com/saintzoul/images/seinarukana/character/ruptna.jpg)<br/><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 18pt;">Ralena Tharin</span><br/><strong>Location:</strong> Leolt city streets<br/><strong>With:</strong> Luca, Lyuk, Gregory<br/><br/><hr/><br/>The creepy man with the silver hair dodged backwards out of Ralena's punch, as she sent one of her magically infused fists straight towards the man's head. Upon realizing that she had over-committed to the punch, the black haired girl stumbled awkwardly and skidded to a halt before falling over flat on her face, at which point she spun around towards the creepy guy and got back into an upright position. She kept her gauntlet covered hands up around chest level, and bounced off her knees as though she was in a boxing match, her voice coming out in a serious tone with her usual amount of pep and energy mixed in. "Sup Luca? Looks like your friend is a whole lot more talkative then mine was. Hope you don't mind if I butt in." While Ralena went on her little spiel, the creepy guy shook his head, sheathing his sword when he realized that the newcomer was another member of Fairy Tail. <strong>"Hmph. Of course idiots like you wouldn't heed our warning..."</strong><br/>"Yeah, about that, I've still got a few questions for you involving that buddy of yours that I ran into earlier."<br/><strong>"..."</strong><br/><br/>The man glanced up at the sky, seemingly locking his gaze on Lyuk for a few seconds before he shook his head and let out a slightly frustrated sigh. <strong>"This is a waste of time."</strong> After saying that, his whole body started to get consumed by that same darkness, those same shadows as before. Ralena, not happy to see her second member of the crows bailing on her, rushed forward as quickly as possible. "Oh no you don't!" She put all of her might into the ensuing punch, thoroughly punishing the air that she struck down with her righteous fury, the shadow crow member that had occupied that air just a moment ago seemingly nowhere to be found. This time, however, there was no saving her as Ralena crashed into the ground. "Nng!" Her gauntlets vanishing to the air as she got back to her knees. "Oww... What's up with those jokers, anyway? They seek us out, swing around some big nasty words, and then run away whenever we decide we wanna throw down..."</div>
