Brutal Clash (invite only)

[Kaitou]

"Get that barrier up! They're launching their cannons!" Koji commanded.

Several white magicians lined up and began generating power. A barrier pulled up in front of them and formed a wall in front of the army. Several shots smashed into it and created ripples throughout the barrier.

"Enough! Launch the meteors!"

The barrier dissipated and a group of fire casters launched pieces of burning earth onto the Tech army. The enemy received heavy damage as the meteors collided into enemy grounds.

"This is too easy. Why do they spend so much resources developing useless technological junk?" Koji asked Soma, second-in-command.

"All their weapons are scrap metal now. We can make our advance and capture Eoin City now." Soma responded.

"Very well. Bring the lines forward slowly and generate a mobile shield. I don't want any surprise attacks."

"Yes sir"

Sazura stared at the chaos outside the city. ¨So. It has begun.¨
After he had said this he Rised his hand... All what was left on the infantry, attacked.
Sazura himself started walking slowly towards the enemy. ¨Let's see what you got mages.

[Kaitou]

The two warring sides met at the city border. A brief silence swept across the armies. The citizens of Eoin City were tending to the injured. The city itself was hit during the battle. Innocents were being brought off the streets and into care.

"Remember, they're the enemy too," Soma reassured Koji.

"Right. Gather our white magicians close to the front. Infantry, advance into the city! No long-range spells," Koji commanded.

The infantry assimilated their magical weapons and ran forward.

The morning was a beautful until the dark, black smoke filled the air, and men started to fight on Eoin city. Asuka lives in the Harmonia Forest, under the care of God, in an abandoned church. He sits on a broken pew, folding his hands together to his mouth and praying that today would be better.

Kaboom!!

Asuka heres an explosion, from about yards away from the forest. People who took place in this peaceful forest, started to run to check what was going on. Asuka grabbed his sword, and inserted his gun into his gunhold(w/e it's called), then ran to the front gate of the church. A villager nearby, ran past him, "Hey what's going on?" Asuka asked, the person stopped, turned around and said,"A battle has started in Eion city!"

Asuka heard this, and ran as fast as he could to the site where he could witness the battle. Everybody gathered at a cliff, they could see the buildings crashing down, guns being shot, and soldiers fighting other soldiers. He couldn't stand to see many lives being wasted..but no...they never helped me why should they deserve to win...they all should die...

[Kaitou]

The two armies collided. The Tech army was already injured, and they were losing considerably. Koji watched as Magic infantry slaughtered the Techs, many of which were just defending their hometown.

We're no better than the people that killed my family, Koji thought.

Koji galloped towards the city on his warhorse and witnessed the suffering the Innocents were going through. Innocents ran from the battlefront, medical staff carried away the injured, a little girl stood crying at the sight of her dying mother beside her.

"Soma! Retreat our army immediately!" Koji commanded.

Soma removed his sword from a defeated Tech's chest. "What?! Sir, the enemy doesn't stand a chance. The city will be ours in just-"

"Retreat now! Infantry, withdraw. White magicians, bring up a mobile barrier! We're moving back!"

Soma glared in disapproval, "Very well, sir." He galloped back and motioned for his troops to follow. Koji looked back at the city, then galloped behind.

[Suzu Kitamura]

As he watched innocents tormented by the heated battle, he only smiled..Then he walked away, eyes darkening..One of the men asked Asuka,"Hey where do you think you're going?" He didn't reply for he was distracted by a malevolent force growing inside the forest.

As he drew nearer into the inner area of Harmonia Forest, his feeling of anxiety cultivated as his spine brew of coldness. Step by step, he clutched his gun ready to shoot until he ended up into a manifestation of darkness growing into a large tree.

Something approached under the roots of the tree, the creature dashed out and landed right infront of Asuka. Then a few anothers of the same creature came about, Asuka was stranded so he pointed his gun at one of the creatures his other hand on the hilt of his sword. The dog-like creature jumped straight at him! Asuka shot rapidly at the stomache of the creature, then slashed down. It landed on the ground breathing heavily, black musty smoke came out of the chest of the creature. Asuka shot it hesitately, without giving it time to recover.

Doing so only made the others angrier and vengeful for their defeated brother. So a pack of the creatures surrounded Asuka, snarled and prepared for the assualt at the mortal.

"You've wasted my time long enough," Asuka said..

[Kaitou]

"What were you thinking? We had them!" Soma shouted.

"Leave me alone Soma. It's over now, we've delivered a blow to the Tech forces. No reason to involve their citizens too," Koji replied.

"What, the Innocents? They're on the Tech's side! The city supports the Tech army's needs!"

"Shut up!" Koji shoved Soma through the tent wall. The tent collapsed, revealing Koji and Soma to the others. "I see no reason for involving Innocents. As long as I'm commanding this army, we do what I say, no questions!"

Everyone stared. Koji walked off into the woods.

"Everyone back to your tents, get your sleep." Soma stood up and began repairing the tent.

As the creatures dashed to Asuka, he dodge to the left, to the right and left again. He cross slashed one of them, he turned around reloading his gun, kept running to the left at high speed shooting rapidly at the creatures. Three of them died down, and eight were left. All of them ran at different directions, trying to confuse Asuka to go into one of them. One came out and bit Asuka on the arm, "Danmit, where did you come from!" it started to jiggle forcefully trying to rip his arm. Asuka pressed his gun into its stomache and blasted it with full force.

It let go of his arm, and died down on the ground. Asuka kneed on the ground, breathing heavily from their attempt to slay him. He opened his eyes and spotted a bar code on his right leg, a name printed on it saying..

Alchemy

[Kaitou]

I can't keep worrying about Innocents. It'll ruin my reputation and affect the Magic army's progress in this war, Koji thought.

He walked deeper into the forest and noticed a hound-like creature running throught the forest. He heard shuffling behind him and turned around. Another hound leapt through the bushes and at Koji. Koji drew his sword and thrust it down the hound's mouth. The hound wimpered and died as Koji withdrew his sword. He noticed a small barcode printed on the hound's hind leg. Koji knelt down and examined it closer.

"What the hell? Animals created with biomagic?"

The hound evaporated into streams of mana and disappeared. Koji stood up and sheathed his sword.

"Why would we need biomagic creatures?"

Lana watched the Tech City's citizens gather their dead after they had withdrawn their army from Eoin City. So many lives wasted in unnessecary war... so many wives waiting at the city gates for husbands who would never come back...

She decided to head back to the city. She was halfway through Harmonia Forest when she heard a rustling nearby. She reached for her weapon but realized she had left it behind.

"Great, just great." She muttered.

Lana turned around and saw a strange creature leap at her. She screamed.

[Kaitou]

The biomagic hound burst into streams of mana as Koji's sword swept through it.

Damn fiends, they're also attacking other humans. If they harm a Neutral, we could be in trouble. Koji thought.
"Who are you? Are you a Tech or with us?"

Lana looked up at the man, and slowly got up, clutching onto her bleeding arm. She gave a sigh of relief.

Ehh.. I probably look like a damsel in distress.. god, what else can go wrong?

"I'm with 'us'. Er.. thanks for helping me. What are those things?"

[Kaitou]

Koji noticed her arm, "Don't worry about them. Let me take you back to camp, we can treat your wounds there."

Koji brought Lana to the campsite. The campfire had already been put out, and no lanterns were on, so everyone was probably asleep. Soma had fixed his tent.

He walked into the clinic and opened up a first aid kit.

Koji spoke while bandaging her arm, "So...what were you doing in the woods?"

Lana examined Koji and decided he was probably a soldier or a commander in the army.

"Just exploring... I suppose. It never really occurred to me that the woods could be dangerous. Umm.. I guess I should introduce myself? I'm Lana, and you are?"
