Chaos laughed, sounding completely insane, which he was. He looked at the group infront of him. They were dangerous, they were powerful, and like him they all wanted the mercenaries guild dead. " Now as you know, we hate the mercenaries, each for our own reasons. We want rid of them, and the best way is to work together." Bella took over from here, her eyes gleaming in the dim light. " Now, the deal is, we need to hunt down each of the former members, and kill them while they are still separated. Once that's done, we will separate the territories of the NTWF, and each have our own area."
-------------------------------
Cyborg looked out at the sea, he loved sailing his ship out here, so peaceful. Sure it was a smaller ship than he used to have, but it was just right for a crew of one cyborg/kougra and a hoarde of squirrels.
-----------------------------
Midknight and Shado walked through the forest. " Shado, let's return home, that was great training." Shado and Midknight turned into shadows and raced off towards their house.
---------------------------
Rose and Esme looked around at the school. " So Rose how's the healing coming?" Esme asked.
" Class sucks, I'm just not able to get the whole ressurection thing. How`s your class?" Rose responded.
" Hang in there, Telekinesis class is quite fun actually, though one kid got hit by a rouge boulder that was sent flying."

Twizzlers was blowing bubbles like she used to when she was smaller. She remembered the mercs, and then she remembered something else. After the mercs disbanded, she was kidnapped. She escaped, but just barely. She was also sent to boot camp once or twice. But that was months ago. Maybe even years. The time without the mercs all blended together. Twizzlers blew another bubble and smiled. She was going back to the merc headquarters, no matter what.

After the mercenaries had disbanded, Jernath had moved into a small house by himself. Since then he had been living a generally peaceful life, without the need of ever pulling out his old weapons. Though it was a bit odd not going out and fighting for money for the first little while, Jernath had eventually gotten used to the peaceful life again, spending a lot of time chatting with his friends from his pre-mercenary days.
"...So yeah," Jernath told his friend, who happened to be visiting that day, "it didn't really go that well."
"Wow, that's too bad," his friend, Varin, replied. "Say, what happened to that merc chick you used to hang out with? I think you and her would make a cute couple..."
"Varin..." Jernath chuckled, rolling his eyes. "Anyway, I haven't really seen any of the mercs since we split up, Esme included. So I'm not sure what happened to her."
"Aw, too bad," Varin said with a grin. "You should've got her number while you had the chance."
"Heh, really now." Jernath stood up and started walking toward the kitchen. "Say, would you like a snack? Something to drink maybe?"
"Sure! Do you have any of that soda I like?"
((>_> Ignore the odd, fillerishness of this post. BTW, did we ever decide how many years into the future this is, exactly?))

Esme was in her room, back at the house she and Rose bought. They had become friends very quickly, and after a while were inseparable. She thought back to the days of the mercenaries. She missed Jernath a lot. Rose did too, she said so from time to time. Rose seemed to miss Cyborg and Midknight too, if anyone knew Rose better than Esme, it was those two.
-----------------------
Midknight and Shado arrived at their house. It was a nice little cottage, hidden away near a waterfall. They found the location to be peaceful, and good for meditation purposes. Another bonus, was there was less of the hustle and bustle of the city. When they walked in the door, Shado went and curled up next to the fireplace that Midknight was tending to, keeping the fire large enough to keep them warm. Midknight walked over to a large chest he kept locked tight. He opened it, and looked inside, there was a lot of gold, and under, there were his hidden books, which contained all of his shadow spells, including a few he created. The most important things of course were the twin cutlasses he was given by his father. How his missed his mercenary days.
---------------------
Cyborg watched the ocean, it was a wonderful sight, watching sea creatures swim by him as he sailed. The squirrels were an amazing crew, quick nimble, and fairly strong, especially when they worked together. Hazel of course was still the leader of the group. She loved to tell the young squirrels stories of the older squirrels, and Cyborg`s escapades. She missed those days, she missed Rose the most. Cyborg however missed his brother. Sure they fought a lot, but they were still brothers.

Fenrix sighed and tapped the latest report from the village of Eclipse. "Shiloh if I get one more complaint from the idiots down in the valley, I'm going to go down there and burn them myself." Angrily she brushed a bit of black hair from her face and stood, turning from the table. "Lets go for a walk and see if we can't find Hades."
Shiloh yawned and stretched lazily. "You're restless. Ever since the Mercs broke up, you've been grouchy." He jumped onto his mistress's shoulder, licking one pointed ear.
She sighed, shrugging her shoulders in a lazy way. "I had thought running the Quarter Moon Fortress and the village of Eclipse would be interesting. But it's boring. Since it's the off season for court functions, all I do is paperwork. I'm bored." She grabbed a dagger hanging from the wall, out of practice. "I'm sure Hades will provide some fun. He's been acting strange lately. I think he misses the mercs just as much as I do."

((Yes, I do know what I'm doing. Mostly.))
Hades ran through the forest, trying to clear his mind with the exertion. He’d been trying for weeks now, trying to forget what it’d been like, years ago, living with people he trusted. There had always been something happening, even if it was completely internal to the Mercs. Living out here had been fine, until boredom set in. Once Hades had gotten bored, nothing was quite enough to bring him out of that state.
So he ran through the woods as a wolf, trying to forget.
Something cold covered him, a misty hand covering Hades’s neck. Hades struggled, trying to burn the misty form away, but his fire barely flickered before going out, taking Hades’s consciousness with it.
* * *
A note found it’s way onto the piles of paper that littered Fenrix’s desk.
Fenrix Akaba --
I took your pet wolf. What would you give for his return?
Leave your reply here. I will find it.
* * *
Another note found its way onto a certain lycanthropic general’s desk.
General Lucius Tiberius --
You don’t like rogue military groups, do you? Go to the Quarter Moon Fortress. You will find a vampire with connections to a certain Mercenary group.
* * *
The note-leaver laughed, settling into the caves it had come from. The merest shadow of a being, it was invisible in the darkness. On the floor behind it, a wolf struggled, one eye shining blue in the darkness, watching the shadow as it faded away.

(Well, I'm going to attempt to revive this. Now, mercs new and old, if you are bringing in a villain. Bring them in now!)
" Okay, it seems we have tracked down a couple former mercenaries." Bella stated, " the shadow master Midknight and his fox. His brother the earth mage Cyborg, and the squirrel army. The healer Rose, and the telekinetic girl, Esme. We have also found the location of the archer Jernath. Now I want all of you to state your name, get into squads of two or three and move out." she added. " I am Bella."
" And though you already know my name, for I am everywhere at once, I am Chaos." Chaos added with a maniacle giggle.

"Chaos?" A shady figure in the corner laughed, "How original. You get that from Final Fantasy or something?" Walking into the light, the man put his hands on the table in the middle of the room. "How about we just call you 'Doom', or maybe 'The Man in Black'?"
Turning to face the group as a whole, he added, "As for me, the name's Dean, Dean Palmer. For now, anyways. The sharpest eye in the world, and fastest trigger finger. If I can't shoot it then it's not there." Only once had an enemy escaped Dean, but soon that man would be hunted down.
______________
"I'm sorry, Alice. There's no place for me here." Clint said, walking towards the door.
"But Clint, Washington-..." The General rebutted, but not before being interrupted.
"Washington has Eli if they need him." He paused, collecting his thoughts. "I am so sick of all this bureaucracy. I'm so sick of your staff trying to live out the legacy of the people we loved. I'm sorry, but I have to get away from the capitol for awhile." Clint didn't face her. This decision was hard enough on him as it was.
"Clint, where else can you go?" Alice asked, trying to be the voice of reason, as always.
"I know a place... I don't know if I'll still be welcome there... but I figure it's worth a shot." Clint replied.
The General stood. "You can't mean..."
"Yes." Clint said, opening the door to her office and walking out, "I'm going to go find those Mercs again."

( Yaayz, more villains!! I thought you were going to say " Dean, James Dean." XD)
"Haha aren't we a genius. What clever remarks." Chaos replied, " Am I supposed to be impressed? I am Chaos, I cause chaos. Guns and bombs and claws," he added, " OH MY!" he giggled again in the same psychotic manner.
" ....men" Bella stated as she shook her head at the two conceited killers. " Now you two will stop, and we need to start picking targets. I'm going after the healing and telekinetic girls." she added.

"Quarrels among comrades does not become a true organization." A gravelly voice said from the back of the room. "And since we're all going to be on a first name basis, you will call me General Lucius or General Tiberius." A man leaned forward. Or at least had the appearance of a man. Everything from his well polished shoes to the top of his gray hair screamed 'Lycanthrope'. Black eyes swept across the room in a very practiced fashion.
"Mercenaries are bad for morale. I am here simply because I wish to destroy them. I hold no grudges against any of them, not that it matters. I recieved a note saying that we might try The Quarter Moon Fortress in the village of Eclipse. Their leader is a vampire and a former mercenary leader."

"With the battle about to take place, surely a medic would help you." A man wearing a doctor's uniform stood up. He had a wolf-like nose, tail, and ears, though did not seem to care if he drew attention. "My name is Doctor James Fenrir Lupe, but just simply Dr. Lupe is fine. I am here because I heard rumor of some former enemies of mine trying to join the divided Mercs. Near impossible, but they may ally themselves with the former members when our attack happens." The doctor glanced over at General Tiberius, thinking: "The wolves are the only two taking this seriously. I suppose we are the best at the hunt."
"I forgot to mention, I am not only good as a medic, but a warrior." He pulled from his medical bag a bottle of pills. He took one out and threw it at the wall, resulting in a small explosion. "That was a weak dosage, but I assume you get the idea."

(Yaaayz the mercenaries haveth returned to life.)
"I will go after that archer!" Chaos stated. " OOOO I like the doctor, explosives are quite fun aren't they? But I think Mr. Lucius here needs to remove the stick from his butt. Enjoy this, the feeling of murder,...is to DIE FOR!" he cackled as he jumped on his hover board and flew off toward his target.
( Timeskip) (Won't affect everyone's post, just wanna help out PFA.)
Chaos arrived at the coordinates he was given. It was a small house, but not too bad for a retired mercenary. He flew down and landed just infront of the door. He proceeded to knock on the door. After he did this he took out a mini explosive.
------------------------------------------
(Meanwhile)
Bella looked at the remaining people. " Dean, would you mind coming with me. We can kill two birds with one stone." she offered.

((I won't be able to post until late in the day tomorrow, so I apologize for this short post so soon after my last one. I just don't want to fall behind in the RP.))
The doctor looked at the others making their plans. "General Tiberius, attacking The Quarter Moon Fortress sounds like a job for more than one person. Do you mind if I come with you?"

Varin had left, and Jernath was just cleaning up the mess. The sun was starting to go down, and the day was drawing to a close.
Just then, there was a knock at the door. Jernath was puzzled. He wasn't expecting anyone, and he certainly wasn't late on any bills or anything. Who could it be?
Tossing the various items he was carrying into the garbage can, he walked over to the door. As he reached for the doorknob, he stopped. Something about this felt odd... too odd.
"Who is it?" he called, a hint of suspicion in his tone.

" Hi my name is John. I am here to inform you,....there was a tragic accident with one of your old friends, and I was appointed to inform you of the information." Chaos lied with a big smirk on his face as he waited for the door to open.
