The war was over! But what of the teens?? Some without parents, many without purpose, most without education in their Qis. Look no further than Cabal Academy! Sponsored by the Academy, a conference of a bunch of staff and exceptional students from the Academy would be held to show just what an excellent opportunity it was.
It was a sunny day, a few clouds dotted across the skies, and a little hot, but the heat was perfect for handing out water bottles with information on them. Tables and informational pamphlets and devices filled the town square.
Soni gazed across the scene and spectated who she would actually wanna talk to. There weren't many options. Instead she turned to wandering around awkwardly through the crowd of people taller than her, being sure to keep her mask on. The variety of people there was mind-boggling; spiky hair, no hair, yellow skin, red skin, pale skin, and even one big guy that had blue scaley skin. There was a part of her that was looking for a person so affected by Qi that they had a tail and horns... but there wasn't anyone that matched the subconscious description. It was a little strange, she felt like some of the faces rang the tiniest bell in the back of her mind, the quietest jingle, some as if their names were just on the tip of her... well... It didn't matter. Even if she did recognize them, she wouldn't say anything. Social interaction wasn't her favorite. |

At long last, Triton had unveiled his destination. The crowd great, there were many that wandered the streets; many mainlanders all gathered to take part in salutations and speech. The visions which took shelter within his mind had led him here, but spoke naught of what was to come. Thus he would continue on his merry way, seeking the truth of the visions.

Deimian wandered into the town square, poking around with his cane. He wasn't a fan of this many people, some of them offended that a blind person bumped into them. His normal path through such a crowd was filled with "Sorry"'s and "I didn't mean to"s. It wasn't very pleasant, but it was worth it this time. It was here that he hoped to find someone that could take the darkness away. Thus he began down the rabbit trail of questioning different people to find a master of Qi that could help him not only to control it, but to remove it altogether.

There would be a lot of people having a good time and enjoy the peace they had grown accustomed to... however there was something amiss. As people in hoods starting showing up. Not all at once, and not from the same direction just. Periodically another one or two would show up. Most people would even notice if it weren't for the fact that they were bumping into people rudely and not stopping to apologizing. Triton and Damien both being one of those people being rudely bumped into.
Soni however, would feel something. Almost a sense of familiarity. It could also be noticed that she specifically wasn't getting bumped into!

Soni slowly but surely picked up on the strange characters. Her heart started to thump a little faster. This couldn't be a terrorist attack, could it? But part of her felt oddly at ease; it was very conflicting, the fear vs. the comfortability. What was going on???

Triton scoffed at the transgression. "Mainlander I kindly request that you examine your path!" he called out.

Deimian chuckled a nervous laugh. "Excuse me, sir, I apologize."

After a few more moments of this EVERYONE in the crowd was aware of the strangers presence and what started with Anger and irritation, was now bubbling up to confusion and worry. All of the hooded figures stopped. The pause would short but seemed to last forever due to the tension...
Then Soni would FEEL a high pitched ringing inside of her head! Immediately all of the hooded figures began to attack! They all seemed to be misshapen humans wielding crude wood or rusted metal weapons! They began to attack the the crowd indiscriminately! Screams were deafening and the smell blood was so strong Damien would barely smell anything else. The exception being the horrible stench these attackers were giving off. It was so foul it would make him want to vomit!

Soni bent over in pain, holding her head and ears. Her mind and heart were taken back to the lab, and the excruciating sounds she was victim to, by the scientists and by the attempts she made to end it all. Her heart began to speed up, her breathing became irregular, and by the time it was gone she had hit the ground, struggling to breath and think. Tears fell from her face as her breathing gradually transitioned into panicked crying.

With great haste and iron scales, Triton struck the nearest fiend!
[Qi uses remaining: 9/10
Iron Scales: Triton can harden the scales that cover his body, allowing him to take more punches and deal them back harder, giving him +100% Eng to Atk and Def]

Deimian gagged at the smell and stench, and his darkened eyes squinted. It was horrendous, but useful. It lead him right to them. After fighting through the physical reaction of the revolting odor, Deimian slammed his cane into the head of one of the fowl creatures.

Triton and Damions does would go down! But yet more attacked then with their crude weapons! Soni was being left alone just hearing the sounds of death and cries of agony, some were even bagging for help to their dying breath...

Soni kept crying, until she hit her limit. So much emotion couldnt be contained in her small 13 year old body. Gradually she began screaming, louder and louder, with more and more force being emitted out in front of her. Her eyes squinted shut, restricting her from seeing much of the battle at all.

Poseidon's might as his aid, Triton wrestled one of the creatures to the earth below them and sought to rip its weapon from its hand. Truly, these demons were from the darkest depths of Hades's abyss.
Suddenly, a great outcry began to erupt from a girl a great distance from Triton's view. The shriek was certainly one not kind to one's ears, nor was it getting kinder.

Deimian put his shirt over his nose, trying to escape the awful sense. Instead of continuing on with his attack, he desperately tried to find the nearest hiding place to get away from it all.
Then, a scream came from across the courtyard, one that was getting louder and louder. If it continued he would have to cover his ears too.
