Log;

Dark walked out in the open street, almost daring the authorities to come and try to arrest him. Besides, they didn't have anything substantial on him. Just rumors and gossip.

Slowly glancing around, as to not grab the attention of anyone tailing him, he noticed a large... bird tied to a pole near one of the large apartment building. He signaled to the others as he fished out his trusty Ice Talon; they had found their next steal.

[ooc: Sorry for the late post~ I woke up late. DX We can just post as we go, no real order, ok?]

Eisen was bored. A very. VERY. Bored chocobo. As much as the humans and various other beings here complained, there was very little to do if you really thought about it, and even less for those without thumbs. He fluffed his crimson feathers and let out a sigh.

'Mother' was in her nest, reading some hide covered paper of pretty nonsense, muttering or shifting once in a while, but clearly not paying attention to HIM. Tempation to untie himself from the pole was high, but he heard a rustle in the bushes and turned his head.

[OOC: good with me?]

Haku looked over at Dark and gave a slow nod to Dark as he drew out his bow and an arrow, quickly scouting the area for potential danger as he fanned out to the right, making sure that he didn’t stray too far away from Dark.

Haku blinked slowly as he got a better look at the strange creature in front of him, it was a rather large bird and by the looks of it, had too short of wings to fly. Haku pulled back at the arrow, eyes alert for any and all movement. He stopped a few feet in front of the bird before turning around, making sure the coast was clear and awaited further instruction from Dark.

Dark pointed to the right and held up a palm, signaling for Haku to take up a position from there while he slowly moved to the left of the red bird.

His Ice Talon, a cardboard replica in hand, he moved closer to the bird and the rope, slipping into the shadows. A few deft motions and the rope was loose.

[ooc: PECK HIM CHOCOBO, PECK HIM]

Eisen huffed and warked, shifting uncomfortably as the ropes were untied and some... male attempted to take hold of the reins. Whipping his head back and snorting into Dark's hair, giving his to-be-captor a blow to the forehead with his hard beak, making sure not to injure him with the razor sharp edge of his beak.

A flap of the wings and he strutted away proudly, tailfeathers up and turned away from the three intruders. Not his problem.

[OOC: how about a headbutt? someone jump onto his back? That'll alert the kitten to the disruption~]

Dark staggered backwards, slightly disoriented at the attack. "Stupid bird," he growled as he shook his head. "Fine, we'll do this the hard way." He put away his weapon, ran a hand through his hair quickly, and launched himself onto the back of the bird.

The large bird believed that his sharp rap to the head was the end of it, but he was wrong. Spreading his legs and lowering his head into a pool of water to take a drink, Eisen had left himself open for Dark's (slightly suicidal) leap. A heavy weight, much heavier then his 'mother' was recently, landed on his back suddenly, earning a loud startled WARK from the bird. A flap of the wings and he turned his head to glare at Dark Before he tried to buck the young man off, like a wild stallion.

If he wanted excitement, give him a Rampaging Behemoth or a horde of angry Orcs; not this!

An ear twitched as the 'mother' in question heard the startled wark of her hand-raised chocobo. Darting up and dropping the books she was researching without a care, her hand grabbing the small, yet heavy warhammer on the wall before heading outside before slamming open the window and launching herself out the window. Her eyes were greeted by the fiasco.
"What in Blazes is going on here?!?" She roared, not in the mood for things like this.

Dark probably would have cursed if he had the time, but, at that moment, he was trying his best not to get thrown into a wall or trampled by an angry bird.

His left hand grabbed at feathers while his right moved to free his cardboard dagger from its sheathe. He then threw it at the angry hammer-wielding catgirl and tried to reach the reins.

"Haku! I could use some help over here!"

Nunnally had heard Dark's call for help so she pushed forward on her wheelchair controller. It moved her into sight and she faced where she heard the angry woman yell.

Reaching into her robe, Nunnally pulled out some dirt and grass she had pulled out of the ground before and sprinkled it a bit. Then she pointed her finger at Zaheela chanting a few words.

"Magic Missile!"

She had no reason to really block what looked like a paper dagger (unless her fate was to die by a papercut that was). It bounced off her shoulder, not even hurting in the slightest before she tapped her foot, watching as Dark continued to try and 'wrestle' with her Chocobo. She was smirking, before she heard a voice chant out Magic Missle and threw up her hands, casting a (real) barrier spell before anything could hit her. She waited....

...And waited....

.......and waited....

When nothing happened, however she peered to her side, confused. What in the world was going on?

Dark saw this wasn't going anywhere; he was tempting death by means of a giant rampaging bird and a very pissed off catgirl with a hammer. And the latter seemed to be immune to both physical and magical means! He knew they were outclassed.

His right finally grasped the reins of the bird and Dark rolled off its back. His other hand slipped to his pocket and pulled out a bag of flour and flung it at the catgirl's general direction.

"Run away!" He shouted, pulling at the reins of the stubborn bird.

Nunnally had to keep the lady distracted or else she would catch up to Dark, who she heard running away. She steeled herself, willing to be the sacrifice. So she did the only thing a young girl could do. She cast Charm.

Nunnally turned her head toward the sound of the girl breathing and gave her a thankful smile.

"Can you help me find my way home?"

She had made a move to chase after Dark when she was stopped by a young girl in a wheelchair who asked the most innocent of questions.
"I'm... erm." She had no idea how to handle this. Dark was trying to kidnap Eisen but it would be wrong of her to leave the girl there... She stood there for a moment, ear twitching in her mental debate, trying to figure out what to do... The answer, however would reveal itself in a moment.

The bag of flour exploded against the barrier, and out of sheer surprised, she broke the barrier. The impact caused the lose paper bag to spill it's contents, covering her surrounding with white and blinding the Mithra. She began to cough wildly as the flour choked the air, giving them plenty of time to escape. Eisen pulled his head back, lifting Dark off the ground for a moment but began to move with the thief, struggling all the way.

The cloud of flour disappeared and the Mithra blinked bleary eyes. She had no idea what was going on, but now her patience was growing thin... Dangerously thin. It was bad enough that they had attempted to 'attack' her, even in jest. But they took HER Chocobo, HER Eisen. Someone was very... very dead, and she took chase after the thieves. Ooooo, when she got her hands on them....

Haku ran along side Dark, turning his head to look back at Nunnally wondering if it was a good idea to leave her, a part of him wished to go back and help her in case the charm didn't prove effected, but as of right now, Dark was far more important. Haku ran along side Dark trying his best to calm the bird down.

"Dark-sama!" Haku called out, looking up at him. "Let's make a left, let's run towards the lake!" It was a bit of a stretch...but since the woman was a cat humanoid, maybe she has a great distaste for water?

Dark nodded as he dragged at the reins, the big red bird digging in its heels into the ground. He did a quick inventory; Nunnally could probably take care of herself - who would hurt a blind, cute sorceress? - he had used up his only flour bag and thrown his only weapon. Well, he reconsidered, he could use that katana that he hadn't gotten the chance to identify yet from that dragon's den...

An angry squawk tore him from his musing and made him growl in frustration. He only pulled harder at the reins, the lake slowly coming into sight.

Eisen didn't like this. He was being taken against his will, and his beak was HURTING. He would seriously claw at the young man if he didn't stop. leaping into the air, he whipped his head, trying to rip the reins away.
"WARK!!!!!!!!"

Back at the apartment, Zaheela growled loudly, ears flattened. She took a step forward before stopping and remembering that there was a blind girl who she had to take account for. She couldn't just leave her there, but Eisen's beak would suffer damage if he resisted any more she theorized.

That left one option, take the girl with her.

Picking up a stick she began to walk around the girl, dragging the end against the ground, occasionally stopping to scrawl some strange symbol at a random point.
"I guess I'll take you home if you tell me where, but I have... a small detour. Is that alright?" Zaheela inquired, glancing at the girl, before closing her eyes. Without even asking for an answer, she began her own chant, long and complicated, willing the spell into being. Slowly and surely, gravity lost it's hold and lifted the both of them, wheelchair and all, into the air. Fingers grabbing one of the girls, she began to lead the way, giving chase. Dark was a dead pervert.

Nunnally responded to Zaheela, mentioning that she lived in building 9.

Then she started to fly. She enjoyed flying but this time was sitting in her wheelchair instead of being carried. Nunnally thought it was better this way.

She wrapped her hand tightly around Zaheela's and let her other senses feel exactly what was going on.

Intent on the lake, Dark was startled as the chocobo began to whip its head back and forth. He struggled to find a footing and didn't notice the pebble near his left foot.

Damn Murphy's Law.

Stumbling, he let go of the reins, and the chocobo shot free. "Get back here!" Dark yelled as he chased after it.

Minutes passed by as she lead the girl after the thieves. Coming upon then, Zaheela couldn't help but be proud as Eisen wriggled and fought to get free from his captor. When Dark was forced to let go and take case, her lips grew into a smirk. She waited and waited until Dark moved into the perfect spot... And dropped the hammer onto his head.
