Subj: [ffml] [HD] Shattering of Peace Date: 01-02-22 12:14:15 EST From: c-jaymie.delacruz@wcom.com (pyxie) Reply-to: ffml@yahoogroups.com To: ffml@yahoogroups.com The Anything Goes School of Sexual Arts was in turmoil. News of the killings that happened in the village caused a huge uproar all over the island. The death of their people rather than the fact that one of the precious Crystal of Chaos had been stolen was the source of their outrage. A large party of villagers gathered at the base of Calypso Mountain, shouts of anger mixed with please for help. Aryun looked down upon the crowd, her goggles giving her a close-up view of their ragged and torn appearances. Shame filled her as she realized her failure in doing her job while Pyxie was away. She had been so engrossed in creating that teleportation machine that she didn't hear about the invasion until it was too late. "Lady Aryun! BahamutX has arrived and demands to see you right away!" Dagger's booming voice brought Aryun back from her brooding. When his words finally sunk in, her eyes widened and she rushed back inside the building towards the landing area. When she arrived, BahamutX was already surrounded by every concubine and man whore of the harem. They were all eager for news of their mistress and the rest of the party. "Baha!! Oh boy, are we all glad to see you!" Aryun pounced on the dragon and smothered him with kisses. "Everything has just been a mess lately!" BahamutX relished the attention for just a few more minutes before he got down to business. Sitting on his haunches, Baha turned to look at everyone with his glassy eyes. [Unfortunately I have more bad tidings to give thee.] Everyone gradually hushed down, clearing their minds to heard BahamutX better. [During our travels, many problems occurred. Our mistress being captured by the Gyro Bandits to be assassinated being the worst of them.] "What?!?!?! How did this happen? Where is she?" Aryun stared wide eyed at the news. She was sure all the other harem members felt as shocked as she did at that moment. [No need to worry. She is fine now. Pokey, Bix, Hortian and a quite a few others are protecting her right now.] "B-but, why are they not here with you? Where are they now?" BahamutX gave a weary sigh. He had been flying for 3 days non-stop, intent on getting his message back home as soon as possible. [They thought it best to go by foot. We had a devastating mishap on the ocean on the way to Nikeah. The party ought to be on the eastern shore in four days more. Thou shall send the boat to fetch them then.] Aryun gave a firm nod. Four days. Only four more days to hang on and keep things together here. "Ok! Well until then, we shall make preparations for defense and battle!" A unanimous cheer arose from everyone. "AND ONE MORE THING!" Baha's gravelly voice shook the whole area, causing everyone to stumble where they stood. "My god Baha!" Dagger yelled at him "You scared the shit outta us talkin' like that!" [Well excuuuuuse moi.] Baha lowered his lids to glare back at the man, exposing his pointy teeth to intimidate him. [But I had another important message to impart. Rydia is missing. Our mistress's greatest wish is to get a search party formed and ready to go looking for the girl.] Again Aryun nodded, feeling the burden on her shoulders get heavier and heavier. With a firm hand, she split the members into groups, one to protect and the other to search. And so the peace was officially over at the AGSOSA harem as everyone prepared to defend what they loved most.
