"Hmph." Anne looked down at a strange piece of paper in her hand that looked like a small business card. It was a small advertisment of the dojo around Sege road.
"Pfft....Theres no way I would ever choose launching my fist at a punching bag over straight up slashing vines with a sword." Anne moved gracefully through the thick forest brush, carefully aiming at certain areas of each vine she passed, imaging them to be large throats, or perhaps, large monster throats.
After a while, she stopped and took a break, sitting down on a large root of a tree. She wiped the sweat from her head and un-did her ponytail, letting her hair drop down to her shoulders to let it dry out from all the moisture. She looked at the palms of her hands. "After I get that crystal, all my training will have not been in vain. I must keep searching..."
Anne got up once again and started to train more, yelling out as she slashed at more drooping vines in the forest.

Dante noticed the girl and was following her by jumping from tree to tree. He followed her around and studied her trying to figure out what she was trying to do exactly.
Whats a pretty girl like that doing in the rough woods like these? He thought.
He continued to follow her along the trees hoping that she wouldn't noticed. He looked up at the sun he figued he had about 3 or 4 more hours till he had to go home so he had some time to follow her.

Anne eventually stopped from physical exhaustion. She stood dead in her tracks, and listened closely, scanning the upper forest area with her brown eyes. Her eye twitched in suspicion. She was subconciously sensing the presence of another being, but just could not put her finger on it.
"Must be some kinda weird panther or something. No worries, I'll cut the beast's head off!" Anne laughed amusedly and started to tie her hair back up into its original pony-tail style. She bent over slightly and reached her hand down into her left boot, pulling out a small piece of rolled up paper. Opening it up, it was an ancient map.
"It can't be that far away... I gotta get goin'." She proceeded deeper into the forest, clutching her short sword tightly in her hand.

Dante winced when she had said she would cut off a panthers head. Dante loved animals alway did and only killed one when it was attacking him or when it needed to be killed. He continued to follower and thought about the map.
Maybe its about time we get acquainted!
Dante jumped on a branch a little bit ahead of her then jumped down right infront of her. He looked at her eyes. They had a nice brown color he took off his sun glasses and said.
[glow=blue,2,300]Hello there the names Dante! Dante Reach? What a nice lady like you doing out here? [/glow]

Anne was spooked by Dante's sudden appearance and jumped back somewhat. She automatically put the map behind her back. "What the..." she thought to herself. "Dante Reach...? Who---- or what is this guy!?"
"Oh, I'm just out here taking a nice stroll and enjoying the air...." Anne put on her "sweet and innocent" look to try to trick him. She examined him in the meantime to see if he had any kind of weapons or valuable items on him. She sighed silently to herself, since she found his appearance somewhat intimidating and made her a bit fearful.
"It's very nice to meet you Mr. Reach. I hope we can become great friends!" she smiled at him innocently, but had a strange gleam in her eye. She kept her map close to her body, out of Dante's sight.

Knight was walking in the woods, looking for something edible for dinner. He had been out camping, and was starving. He began to walk out of the dense spot of trees he was in when he saw two figures talking. He could only see the back of the female one, but he could see the front of the one who had just called himself "Dante". He was about to announce his presence, when he saw that the female one seemed to be hiding something that looked like a map. Knight decided to wait a few minutes before saying anything.

Dante smiled then looked at her sword. He maybe didn't look it but he was very smart and right now he was thinking what a young lady was doing in the middle of these dangerous woods. He figured to be in a place this dangerous she would have to be pretty trained with that sword. He noticed the plate of armour she was wearing on her chest that showed a royal symbol.
She probably is skilled with that sword because she was probably a knight for that kingdom. Wait that makes no sense. That kingdom was wiped out ages ago....So why would she still be wearing that symbol..
[glow=blue,2,300]If you dont mind me asking....Why are you wearing the chest plate of that kingdom if it was wiped out many years ago. Were you a knight to that kingdom?[/glow]

'"Oh... oh no, I was not a knight, but I uhm.... actually---- uh, i-its" Anne was not so sure if she suddenly wanted to reveal that she was actually the royal one, since she still might have unknown enemies lurking around. "I don't know about this guy, I can't just tell him everything.. man, I gotta make a diversion, and quick!" she thought to herself quickly.
"Oh my, am I hungry! Perhaps theres suitable food around here for us to consume?" Anne spoke properly with graciousness, using her princess-like etiquette. She set her sights on a small parrot chirping on a branch that was above Dante's head. She brought her sword to eye-level, aimed, and hurled her short sword at the bird, kebobing it right through the chest. She walked over to it after it fell to the ground.
"Macaws tend to have a very interesting taste. Have you tasted it yet, Mr. Reach?" Anne looked at Dante in a somewhat sultry way. She bent over a bit to the left to return her map back to its original spot, in her left boot.

"Might I ask what that map leads to?" Knight asked, as he slid down from the branch he had been sitting on. He had been watching them both for sometime, and he had suspicions of the female, but did not want to state them yet. "I don't think you ever mentioned your name. I don't have one, but you can call me Knight." Knight said, as he eyed the lifeless macaw.

Dante thought it was odd that she had changed the subject, but then the fact that she perfectly threw her sword striaght through the birds heart also made him want to know what all this meant. He was going to keep pressing on untill this guy that called himself "Knight" Appeared.
[glow=blue,2,300]Hello Knight, and he is right. I never did get your name.[/glow]
He looked and saw that map Knight was talking about. He was just about to say something untill his stomach rumbled.
[glow=blue,2,300]Uhh...Maybe we should get something to eat.[/glow]

Anne smiled somewhat relieved at Dante's growling stomach, still trying to avoid revealing any dramatic information about herself just yet.
"If you excuse me for just a minute, I'll prepare a lunch for all of us. I hope you all will enjoy my cooking!" she started to remove some cooking tools out of the small pack that hung from her shoulder. Within minutes, she had de-feathered and cleaned the macaw, started a fire, gathered forest herbs & spices, and cooked the bird until it had reached the perfect done-ness. It gave off a very desirable scent. Anne took her short sword and cut the bird in different pieces, each individual got 1/3 of the meat.
"By the way..." Anne said, sitting down on a nearby rock. She looked at one of her many cooking tools. "You can call me uh---- Knife. The map I have here is actually the map to some historic ruins. I guess you can say I'm searching for something..."

Knight sat down, crosslegged, where he was. He took a small bite of the macaw, then began to talk. "So... Knife.... how far away are these ruins? I happen to be looking for something myself, but I doubt I will find it where you search.... I'm not sure if I'll be able to find it anywhere...." Knight stopped to think for a moment. "In any case, what I search for is far from here."

Dante took a bit out of the Macaw. I didn't taste to bad he took another bite then leaned aganst a tree. He looked at Knife then asked
[glow=blue,2,300]What exactly are you looking for in these ruins Knife.....That is an interesting name...What would your real name happen to be?[/glow]
He said then took another bite out of the bird. He looked at Knight.
I wonder what he's serching for.....

....mivelle leans his back against the root of a tree lying down with his arms crossed, eyes closed and narrowed, as his hair blows in the wind as the tree leaves do the same, making a quiet gentle wind-like ambience. He seems to be either in deep thought or a very relaxing nap.
