Shortly after Xapham and Avice returned Acice would receive a summons from Rai!

"Ya called, Yar Excellency?" She would say almost in a jesting manner but she would mean it. Even if he asked her to not be too formal in time like this.

Rai chuckled.
"Ah, Avice. Good to see you back in one piece. I trust your trip worthwhile?"

She shrugged. "Difficult to say, I met something or someone interesting. That piece with the runes was what the man called a Piece of Binding. So... With some explanation of what 'im meant. I made a pact... With someone long dead." She shook her head. "Not sure what Afterlife they pulled the poor soul from but apparently this can be done by anyone with a Piece. I kind of regret it... It's ominous but knowing and understanding what that was and whom I dealt with seemed to 'ave given me a few answers even if I also have more questions."

"Oh? And you say you met someone? DOD they offer you a name? What did they look like?"
Rai asked curiously.

"'Im called 'imself, The Contractor, and wore what I assumed was a Gastly mask of a face skinned, and 'im's clothes were all black. Spoke about connecting dates and not gonna lie it sounded a lot like what yee said to me on our first meetin' I got suspicious you played me." She would be honest with him. Her lack in full trust of Raikotsu didn't make much a difference compared to any fool on the street except she chose to get involved with him. And that called for a little more trust than said fool on the street... But not much more.

"Contractor... hmmm..."
Rai rubbed his chin as thought about that name and description.
"Interesting, I must say I'm deeply curious about this being. In all my travels I don't recall ever running into anyone matching your description. But from the sounds of it, he is an old being."
Rai shrugged.
"Granted I could be wrong."
He shrugged again not really caring. Then he would look at Avice and smile.
"Still wary of me I see!"
He laughed.

She grinned slyly. "Raikotsu, ya can't tell me Yar been wholly forward with me, honest but not forward. And I respect that, no need spillin' all Yar secrets I frankly don't mind a surprise. From what I can tell ya not forward with nobody. A man of many facades, all dependin'on what you want from people." She shrugged. "I know I said it once or twice now but I don't care for bein' used or bein' played with. That all I ever be untrustin' about with anyone."

"Fair enough."
He would say with a shrug and a chuckle.
"Anyways, back to this 'Contractor' is there anything else you can tell me about him?"

The Abyss, as 'im called it, is where 'im gets 'is contracts. A very broad term but I felt I was short on time to gather to many details." She tried to think. "'Im knows ya, though 'ow personally I can not say. Could just know yar as a Blood King or the Blood Dragon."
She snapped her fingers. "Maybe ya'd recognize the bloke I contacted with... Ya recall the name Rick Fox?"

Rai rubbed his chin in thought. Then shook his head.
"That name doesn't ring any bells. But you said this contractor knows of me? That's interesting. And quite curious..."

"Ya got to remember ya a Dragon tho, that alone night be what 'im might know." Its like these people forget they are famous... Or infamous, suppose it depends on whom you ask.
"I assumed as much just would not be sure if the others brought'im up... Fought the originals 'im did. Wore somethin' called Fire Dragon gloves 'im did. Fuckin' bloke wore a lotta layers." She shrugged and gave an awkward grin.

"Even so, you said the way the man spoke to you made you think I was the one pulling the strings. That can't be coincidence... but your... contractee, you say he fought the original Dragons, hm? Then it is possible that Leon, and maybe my old Master Mathew might have a clue who he is. They also fought the original's back in the day."

She arched a brow. "Oi, I thought yar Masters were the Originals? Earth, Lightnin', and Storm Dragons, Men whom fought beyond mortal limits and 'ave yet to be stopped by anythin' other than... well I guess boredom." she looked at him with a further questioning and confused glance. "Aye?"

Rai tensed and lurched forward.
"I only had ONE Master! That was Mathew the Earth Dragon, and he was, and probably still is, the strongest of the three. My uncle could never beat him and the Storm Dragon was to busy trying to make himself look good to ever try. This is why he died in the great war and yet the rest of us survived. He'd rather die a hero than live long enough to be seen as a failure."
Rai eased back this moment. Taking a breath.
"Sorry, for the sake of correct history. I only had one master, Mathew took on two apprentices we both not only survived his training but became full fledged Dragons. The other two have never raised a successful Dragon, and as such are not worthy of being called my masters."
Now he would relax back on his throne.
"Anyways, to answer your question. No. They are not the original's. When the Dragons you know of were only but teens and children they met the original Dragons gang. And after much conflict they defeated them and took their names. So, you could say I'm actually a third Generation of Dragons, not the second."
