[❤] The Uprising of Delra (accepting, pm me)

[Starwalker123]

Rose Sunshine-Lesbian-Twodor- Talking To animals- Team Beta, Roe, Caleb’s bird

Rose heard the bird chip in surprise and honed in on it as it caught it’s balnce. She still paid attention to Roe as will but she had to listen to the birds. Rose knew the bird was there but it hadn’t made a sound, thats when she heard it. Lucy heard the words and thought back, hello Caleb . That would make sense. She paused then thought again, should have thought of this before. How’s things on your end.

Leon Nightstaker-Pansexal- Ninon-Light Bending Team Alpha

“Yeah but mostly they just call me Leo.” The boy said with the same cool as ice tone. He didn;t want to make friends but it paid to have people like the medic like you. Leo had no idea why he was talking and not taking the lead but it was something to do since someone else had done that for the time being. “No just thought i'd say hello since you where alone.”Leo said why did everyone assume you wanted something, but with him that really would make sense.

At the sound of Gavotte's voice he sent the water bender a blinding grin, despite not wanting to be a leader he had stepped up to the plate since nobody else had. It meant that the support he got from Gavotte meant a lot to him, he wasn't a leader at heart not that he was a particularly good follower either. He started to respond to them when he was all but pushed aside from their resident fire user. Despite her jogging in front of him and her using a voice he could only assume was meant to be quiet enough for him not to hear, he heard every word clear as day. His usual smirk faltered ever so slightly as a certain kind of anger bubbled inside of his chest. Bursting into action the light footed archer easily jogged forward until he over took them and turned to face Jen whilst keeping up his pace. "Two things really fast Jennifer. First if you took such an offense to me being a leader why not take leadership back at the beginning? I could have been at the back of the group like I originally wanted and you might actually be happy for once. And second despite what you may or may not think we all need allies and you aren't going to have many if you treat people the way you do" he said while his voice was serious his bright smirk never left his lips. Glancing over at Gavotte he gave the water bender an apologetic smile. "Sorry you got dragged into this" Quinn apologized quickly. Then without waiting for a response from either, mostly because he was afraid Jennifer would scorch him alive, he hurriedly made his way away from them. He only slowed down when he spotted Arys' and Demertia. Darting around the werewolf he cowardly hid behind her. "You'll protect me if Jennifer decides to burn me alive right?" he questioned hopefully whilst eyeing the pair that were now leading the way. He hadn't ever really known his fellow archer but he had mad respect for her skills. While that hadn't changed her poor attitude had definitely changed his over all opinion on her. "Before you ask I um may or may not have pissed her off by trying to be a leader and then I might have spoken my mind a bit to bluntly. he admitted and almost looked a bit ashamed. However any tiny appearance of being ashamed disappeared very quickly. "So do you two mind if I walk with you? I don't mind dropping back further if you two want to talk alone" he said as if he suddenly just realize he was kind of butting in on their conversation.

Aisling was quiet like usual however she was being more quiet than she should. Mostly it was because she was worried about this mission, while everyone else had already participated in their first mission she had been unable to participate due to her own stupidity. Shortly after the marking ceremony she had attempted to find out just how long she could hold her shield and had ended up falling unconscious. The fact that she had passed out had freaked her out and she had been unable to actually release the shield for another fifteen minutes. She had then spent the next forty eight hours in the health ward in a deep sleep also known as a coma. She had only come to after the mission and had been very upset with herself for a long time about it. She still was upset that her teammates had gotten injured during the mission and she hadn't been there to protect them. The only good thing that came out of it was she had discovered that she could still control the shield while unconscious. When she had passed out she had woken inside of her mind and it was like watching everything on the tv. Only the thing on the tv was what was going on outside of her body and she had no control over what was going on. It had taken her fifteen minutes to figure out how to dispel the shield with her mind. With a swift shake of her head she forced her worries and fears from her mind and focused on what was going on around her. It was then she noticed that the others had started to walk away without her, understandable she was quiet and short. With a burst of speed she hurried after them and quickly took her place at the back of the group.

It seemed that they were trying to figure out what to do next, most seemed interesting in finding food. That was a thought she could get behind, after all if they were feed they would be able to focus on their task on hand even easier. Letting her gaze flicker over her fellow teammates she made mental note on those who looked nervous. Despite being nervous herself she didn't want the other's to feel the same way so she intended on talking to whomever look the most uneasy. It seemed that most everyone was okay for now so she allowed her gaze to flicker to Caleb who had the best connection with the other team. She had seen when he had sent the bird to look after the other teams, an act she had appreciated a lot. Now she was looking to him to see if anything was going on with those teams. Her closest friend was on team beta after all. As she watched him it seemed that he was connecting with the bird. From the way he was acting it seemed like there wasn't anything to be worried about. At the sound of Ardai's voice she snapped to attention, she was not used to that tone of voice from their resident mischief maker. Pushing forward she managed to make her way up to the front of the group till she was standing next to Ardai. Lifting her gaze until she could finally see the onetian's face she blinked in an innocent way. It was quite the difference between her and Ardai. She was very short and he was tall, he was decked out in white and she was wearing all black. Even there piercings where different, Ardai had golden earrings lovingly made by Quinn and her's her silver. Hopefully despite her dark clothing she still seemed sweet and innocent. "I'm sorry sir I forgot something at home and had to go get it and well with these rumors of rebels I was scared to go alone. Anyways my friends decided to join me and then more people got worried that I wouldn't be safe so they all kind of came along" she explained sweetly and bashfully. Even she didn't talk in such a subdued way normally but she wanted to get the point across that she was weak and needed protecting. It wasn't really true but this stranger didn't need to know that.

"i am as deadly as fire itself."

Jen's eyes narrowed when Quinn jogged ahead of them. While she didn't particularly care if he overheard what she had said about him, at the time, it hadn't crossed her mind that he had Sixney's famous trait: enhancing hearing. The telekinetic swiftly spoke his mind, and before Jen could snap back, he took off. She didn't bother with it further, she was focused on Alastair, not him. Although she had little interest in making allies regardless and didn't care to play leader either. She'd simply grown sick of him babbling on, when Atlanta and Gavotte were probably the only people genuinely acknowledging him. She'd just taken on the role of shutting him up. "What are you feeling right now?" Jennifer questioned. The strength of the water should be overpowering by now.

"who says you can't wear a flower crown and still remain a fearsome thing?"

Demetria quirked an eyebrow as a terrified Quinn ran behind Arys. Separating him and whatever he was afraid of. Just as she was about to ask, he explained. She shook her head and chuckled, ”Yes Quinn, I’ll ensure she doesn’t turn you to toast.” She knew the fire manipulator had a temper, though when around her she was careful not to agitate her. Shifting herself to gain a better view of the pair up ahead, she sighed in relief when she saw Jen was concentrated on other things. ”Quinn, of course you can stay with us. Though I think you’re safe. No offense, but something tells me she has bigger fish to fry. Literally.” Demetria laughed, patting him on the shoulder. She could tell they were just about there, where the two groups would divide and get into place. Where she would transform into her beast-self, and hopefully scare the pants off of the prince.

Of course, it was always great to have two of the most externally neutral people in the party to have some sort of conversation, almost as though it were a neutral stand-off of some sort. He gave a curt nod in response though to acknowledge the abbreviation of the name being more apt to use now, which was something at least.

"Well, it's definitely nice to have greeted me." Cujo pauses for a moment before slowly continuing on, as if coming up with conversation with someone else of neutral-speaking ways was a little unnatural and tough. "So, any reason in particular you chose to be on the frontlines?"

Caleb Oxenbera——————————
♠︎ // Phoenix Squad Recruit // Beast Summoning // Tags: team omega, Ardai, Freyja, Aisling, (Rose mentioned)

A small smile settled on Caleb’s face as the the group seemed to have come to the conclusion his words had described. Ardai was enthusiastic enough for all of them combined too, and hopefully that enthusiasm would spread to those anxious about the other two teams. Freyja’s agreement had also boosted his own confidence a little.

Caleb found himself sort of in the front-centre of the quiet gang, allowing himself to merge with the group even if he had technically been the one to call the shots. It was the decision of all of them after all, plus Caleb’s lack of immediate family had left him to think of the rest of the Phoenix squad as his new one. They were all ride-or-die too, whether they liked it or not.

This position in the group also allowed the animal summoner to briefly return to being the sparrow, having heard Rose’s response as he kept one eye closed. It was a little startling, especially since he hadn’t seen her mouth move when her words’ meaning sounded in his mind. He mulled over the question for only a second before the sparrow chirped its reply. ‘We are fine.’ Then a pause. Caleb didn’t want the bird to chirp for an unnatural amount of time, meaning his sentences would have to be short. ‘Sounds looks like you guys are okay too.’ Another pause. ‘I just thought sending a bird after you would be more reliable than a walkie talkie.’ Pause. ‘And you can understand me. Just use your ability on this bird if you need us.’

Caleb’s closed eye opened at that, just in time to see the aerokinetic nearing him from the side. He was a little surprised at her question but gave two gentle nods. “Yes, both with me and the other group.” The 18-year-old answered quietly. His eyes widened a bit after realising that she had probably asked him on the basis of his closed eye before, and he grew a little flustered. “A-ah, but I never really spoke to you too much about my ability, have I? I-“ his explanation was cut short when a new voice arose and Caleb looked up to see Ardai very close to a Onetian.

The redhead’s excuse gave Caleb enough time to fix the immediate panic that rose to his face into a fraudulent but calm expression. A Onetian impression, it’d be called back at headquarters. It would be... hard to explain certain aspects of the group, but if those who could easily improvise took charge than maybe... Caleb felt a rush of relief when Aisling spoke up, making a pretty good actor as he internally cheered her on. ‘Nice, Aisling!’ However as Caleb peered over at the stunning local, an idea formed in his mind. A risky idea. An idea what made him fairly sure he would stop himself if there were two of him. But... they might as well take advantage of the situation.

“Yes, we were making sure that she returned safely, and our instructor is from Twodor so she simply couldn’t let our friend go alone. But if you could do us a favour, I am also not familiar with this area and I really need some medicine for my sick sister. Could you direct me to the nearest convenience store? I was planning on getting it after school, but if we are already out right now...” Caleb did his best to keep his tone steady, but he knew for a fact that his legs were starting to get a little shaky. Hopefully this Onetian would not pay them much mind.

Onyx Carriado——————————
♣︎ // Phoenix Squad Recruit // Acrobat // Tags: team beta, Keelan

The acrobat’s eyebrows raise a bit at the comment of Keelan turning invisible when she got nervous. It was a bold thing to admit so openly, and Onyx would have respected that- if not for their hobby of intentionally bothering people. This little fact blinded the fun-seeking kid from potentially causing any damage to self-esteem, and in a not-too-bright moment they snorted. “Heh, didn’t realise training was that scary. Watching you was entertaining at least- it was like you were one of those occupied. Octupie? Whatever that ocean critter is that has all those arms and changes colour.” The raven-haired teen snickered, bringing up their hands and wiggling them like hey were an octopus. They considered telling the girl something scary about the oncoming mission in order to see her ability in action, but decided against it in case it put the entire thing at risk. They’d hold off on it. For now.

Onyx made a ‘prrb’ like sound when a small branch hit the back of their head, then turned around. If would be best for them to continue like this, especially after the tree root incident. And Onyx would have to be more aware as they approached Alastair. Hearing the comment on their ankle, they sent a side-eyed glance back at Keelan. “Nah, it was a nice trip- although I didn’t get any souvenirs.”

The kid was then distracted by their own curiosity at what had happened towards the beginning of the line, keeping an eye on Jen and Gav before looking back to where Quinn seemed to be hiding. Onyx made a mental note to ask about it later- although if someone actually attacked their friend then they would have to step in. Luckily it didn’t appear as if that was going to happen. Onyx’s short attention span made itself known yet again when their keen hearing caught the gurgling of a stream and their entire being perked up. “Ohh, water time!” They murmured excitedly. They had... not paid much attention to what map-marks they had passed, but they definitely recalled the prince’s location being close to a waterfall.

Keelan-Rose Major

Keelan froze up when Onyx commented on her invisibility. Then they started wiggling their limbs like an octopus. Keelan's face turns red, and she rubs her right arm with her hand. Onyx has hit her where it hurts. She chuckles a bit, trying to hold the tears back from her eyes; she can feel them prickling. She takes a few deep breaths, her voice shaking as she says, "I need to... go. I'm... going to chat with a few other people, so I probably won't be back." Keels pauses for a moment, before deciding to let it out. "And you know, that was really mean. I wouldn't tease you about barely having a power, and I wouldn't try to hit you where it hurts. I'm going to go now, please don't follow me." She turns on her heel and follows the others, walking at a brisker pace than the acrobat, trying to outrun them. She's okay with a little teasing, but something she was obviously nervous about telling them should be off-limits for teasing.

naevys had to be honest with himself. he needed to stop zoning out at times like this. of course, he had listened to his commander’s instructions, but the time after was spent pondering on his own as he sauntered behind the group. the telekinetic was on team alpha— there was no time for him to slack off, but naevys had been strategizing in his own head since the team he was on would be leading the attack.

perhaps being intimidating would be a good choice, but aside from pushing alastair towards team beta, they could possibly guide him. naevys didn’t personally know alastair, but every person could be changed. knowing the prince of delra could be a weapon is a beginning. how to use that weapon? that is what matters. naevys had a goal in mind, now. befriend the prince. his opinions and knowledge would certainly be useful.

as his eyes return to the scene before him, naevys adjusts his crossbow-gauntlets and the bag of bolts he had strapped to his bad leg. it was time to move forward and live in the present— something completely new to the rebel. team alpha had began to walk in their own mini-groups at this point, starting small conversations to keep themselves afloat before the moment came.

arys, demetria, and quinn caught his eye. arys in particular. despite knowing all of the phoenix squad since birth, he and arys have grown close over the years and naevys had begun to enjoy her quiet company whenever he had the chance to. cujo, his roommate, was also a choice, but naevys had overheard him and he seemed pretty pre-occupied with leon. may as well walk with a larger group.

upon catching up to arys and the others, naevys interjects. “how are we doing? are you all ready?”

he only really wanted to check up on everyone, but inside, he needed some positive reassurance that they could all pull this off. demetria had been helping out with a terrified quinn, after all. yeah. positive reassurance.

Letting a warm smile grace her features, Roe couldn’t help but admire the genuine Twodor woman. Rose’s warm-hearted nature and her love for nature stood out to the Severin girl and her appreciation for the woman only grew as their time together soared. A small stream of water trickled beneath her feet and she averted her vivid aqua gaze to the swaying leaves overhead.

Her thoughts urged her to the woman’s earlier question and she pressed her lips together before letting the words fill her throat. “I’m sure we’re doing the right thing, as well.” Her words were sweet on her tongue and she let her lips stretch out into a silent yawn as if the sounds being radiated by the scenery around her was lulling her to an inward sleep.

Listening quietly to Rose’s question, her answer for the woman’s question remained hidden for several long moments. Odd silence pressed into her skull and the air around her and alas, her next words came to her like a wave crashing onto shore. “Just a little nervous, that’s all.” Pausing for a brief moment to harbour another breath, her skin prickled as a gust of wind brushed against her slender frame. “Hopefully, we catch the prince, after all of this.”

Eyes flitting to the feathered-creature fluttering to the Twodor woman, she glimpsed in awe as the bird and Rose seemed to chorus a silent conversation. It was certainly unlike anything she had ever encountered and she savoured the moment as she slowed her movements to observe the young woman.

⚜ 18 ⚜ Female ⚜ Werewolf ⚜ Mood: anxious ⚜ Location: forest ⚜ Tags: Demetria, Quinn, Naevys ⚜ Mentions: Gav, Jen ⚜

Demetria's assurances take the edge off Arys' nerves a little. She's glad that there's someone else who feels the same way about this mission. As the dragon-shifter mentions Gav and Jen finding two landmarks, she looks around, a little surprised that she hadn't noticed, since she'd taken a look at the map too. Shame flits through her, but she brushes it away. She's so poor with directions in the first place, the vague map would just trip her up. It's better that she lets someone who knows what they're doing take the lead. Besides, Arys is more of an "explore the woods and get lost in the adventure" kind of girl. "That's good! Honestly, I hadn't even noticed. Those two are always on top of things. I wish that I had Jen's directional skills, but I honestly can't find my way out of an unlocked room!"
Demetria continues, and the werewolf is touched at the girl's promise to have her back, even if the smile was a little intimidating. "Don't worry, Dem. I'm not going anywhere. I'll make sure you're safe, not that you'd need any help defending yourself." Arys grins. Being a dragon does have its props, after all. "But if you ever need my help, I'll be there in a flash!" Suddenly, Quinn comes out of nowhere and ducks behind her. Laughing a little as he explains the situation, she replies, "I'm with Dem. I'll protect you, though you probably won't need it. Jen's a little prickly like that, but that's normal." When the telekinetic asks to walk with them, Arys gives him a smile. "Of course you can walk with us!" To be honest, Arys is glad that her little group at the back is growing. Not only is this a good chance to become closer with Quinn, the more people to distract her from her nerves, the better. So when Naevys joins the three of them, she gives him a wide smile. "Hey Naevys! Not gonna lie, I'm pretty nervous, but Calypso gave me some good ideas, so I think I'll be ok. Plus, I have you all to make sure I don't get hurt! I guess we're getting close, so we should come up with a game plan. I already know what I want to do, but maybe we can all stick together and help each other out?" As the gir talks, she reaches into the little bag she is carrying and draws out her claws. Sliding them on, she recalls how the last time she'd used these, she'd been trapped in her wolf form. A chill runs through her at the thought of having to go through that on another misson. When the rebels were heading back to the station, she'd gotten quite a few stares from Fivanians. Since a pet wolf was all but expected in Fivana, she didn't attract too much attention, but had it been another province, she'd have had a serious problem. Being human for a good part of a mission is like a breath of fresh air, and Arys plans to stay human as long as she can.

Atlanta Hunter
Commander of the Phoenix Squad
Tags: Robin

Atlanta had been serious when she proposed her idea, but admittedly, the idea of an enraged attack-ferret diving down from the skies was kind of hilarious. She imagined the complete bewilderment on the elegant Prince's face as tiny claws slashed at him. It would be some form of poetic justice almost, but Robin was right. It would pose a greater risk to her if the Prince retaliated too harshly.
"That's fair, I wouldn't want you risking danger. Especially since some of Team Alpha have more destructive powers, and could accidentally hit a ferret they don't see." Atlanta looked thoughtful for a moment, then another mediocre idea came to her. "Oh, maybe you could throw things at him? There's bound to be plenty of sticks to choose from. If you want something more useful than sticks, I did bring a capture net in case I had to get involved. You can have it if it helps."

Gavotte Tenuto
Water manipulation
Tags: Jen, Quinn

Jen's sudden shift of pace took the waterbender by surprise. He could feel her tension through the grip on his hand, although she wasn't hurting him. Once they'd passed Quinn, Gavotte looked to her in confusion as she muttered under her breath. She seemed seriously annoyed with something.
It all came together when Quinn spoke up. Gavotte froze, lost for a reaction. Confrontation was not his forte, and Gav was afraid that he would accidentally hurt either Jen or Quinn's feelings. The moment passed quickly though, Quinn slinking away towards other teammates. A knot of anxiety twisted in Gavotte's gut. Hopefully neither Quinn nor Jen would take this to heart.
When Jen spoke, it was thankfully neutral. Gavotte didn't need to close his eyes this time to feel the rushing water ahead of them. "We're definitely close to the river," Gavotte spoke, repeating the obvious (Onyx had already heard the water, after all).
"Once we get there, all we'll have to do is follow the water upstream..." He trailed off for a moment, concern creasing his face. They were going to meet the Prince of Delra face-to-face on the battlefield.
"I'm a little worried," He admitted. If Jen hadn't been here, Gavotte would probably be paralyzed with fear. Although she had a fiery temper, her decisive nature was something he deeply appreciated. "Should we maybe stop and plan things out...?"

Ardai Fairchild
Shadow puppets
Tags: Team Omega, Dr. Beaumont

A wave of relief swept over Ardai as the ever-dependable Aisling emerged by his side. She spoke in a small voice, sounding so vulnerable it made him want to immediately comfort her. The redhead fought the urge to hug, reminding himself Aisling was just acting (and very good at it).
"Ah, I understand completely. I too have heard the reports of suspicious activity in Fivana..." Something visibly shifted in the Onetian's eyes. Were they getting through to him...?
Caleb spoke up then, his voice even calmer than usual as he elaborated on the hoax. Combined with Aisling's timid ruse, his tale about the sick sister appeared to have won the stranger over. He was as emotional as an Onetian could be, placing a hand over his heart in sympathy.
"Oh dear... I am so sorry if I sounded accusatory before." At Caleb's request for guidance to the convenience store, the gentleman nodded cordially with softness and concern in his eyes. "Certainly. Please follow me."
He began to lead the way. Now that the Onetian's back was turned, Ardai glanced at Caleb (and the others) with a confused expression. The prankster wondered what their plan was... did they have one?
"Ah, how rude of me not to introduce myself. My name is Walter Beaumont," Their 'travelling companion' continued to speak. "I have a child around your age, Justine, you might know them. As for me, I work at the local hospital in the children's unit. I do not recognize your faces from there... so I am assuming you have kept yourself in good health."
They turned onto a street with several restaurants and stores, faint classical music coming from inside. The convenience store was just down the road.
