-Kazuma landed, somewhat awkwardly, back down to the ground. He was breathing hard, all the magic he had been throwing around coming back to him. He switched his grip on his blade and tossed it like a javelin at the thing, aiming for it's back.
-Cleptsii was still laughing as he charged the thing and leaped, hitting its knee and jumping again. He reached its head and slammed his foot forward and at the same time sending another blast right at its face, towards its forehead. Cleptsii jumped back, did a little flip in midair and landed a little ways away with style.

Miles cursed softly, returning to his standing position, turning to see the beast.
"Vile thing, I will test your medal myself!" He cried, rushing again, this time slamming into it's back, and slashing at its legs, before back flipping off of him and out of range, taunting the beast with one claw in a "Bring it on" Motion.

The beast spun around and charged at Miles, but felt something on his back. James was on there tinkering with some strange device. A loud audible click was heard as his helmet fell off. Under the mask he wore was a single massive eye that shot open. It roared as it reached to grab him, but stopped as a diamond shot from the door and slammed into its wrist, "That's my brother you're about to grab partner," a voice said as a young man, standing at 6'6 wearing a white t shirt with a black leather vest and a pair of denim pants walked out from the shadows. He had a small goatee and had buzzed brown hair, "Paul?!" James exclaimed, still on the back of the beast.
The battle raged on in the cave.
Mitsuro was rapidly firing arrows, using water vapor like a madman as he tried his best to keep the goblins at bay.
Valen used his TK, able to lift the goblins they were so small and weighed so little. Slamming them against walls and killing them instantly.
Iridis slashed his way through so many, but more and more just kept coming.
Critias was alongside Iridis, hacking and slashing through a large number as well.
Sepp put some distance in. Using his keen marksman skill to take multiple goblins out with one shot.
The team had been backed up to the wall, there were simply too many goblins, but then they saw something. A blast of energy erupted from the other side of the cave and slammed into a group of at least thirty goblins, killing them all. The goblins all turned their attention to the other side of the cave, there they saw a man wearing a red coat. He stood at around 6'5 and wore a pair of orange shades. He had spiked blonde hair, and wielded a massive two handed sword on his back. In his hand he held a black gun, as long as his forearm, the barrel smoking from the blast of energy, and a white gun of the same size in the other. The goblins all shrieked as they all charged him like ants to a dead bug. There must have been hundreds, but the man stood his ground. He raised his other gun as a strange aura of blue energy began to surround him. Then a loud BANG was heard and a bright light flashed as two massive blasts of energy erupted from both barrels. It kicked up massive amounts of dust, preventing anyone from seeing what had happened. When it finally settled the man was walking towards the group, with only piles of ashes behind him, "Wait here," he said as he went the same way that James and the others had gone.

-Both Kazuma and Cleptsii charged the thing, both realizing its now obvious weak point. They both leaped at the exact same time. Kazuma fired a bolt of lightning at its eye, while at the exact same time, Cleptsii shot the last round loaded into his shotgun at the same spot. They both sailed over its head, landed on the other side and rolled, still synchronized, and got up, dusting themselves off. They looked at each other at the exact same time, narrowed their eyes at one another. They both cautiously raised their left hand, again at the same time. They jumped and faced each other, still at the same time. They both slowly raised their right hand and their hands met in the direct middle of them. Suddenly, Cleptsii flung both his hands up saying "Nope, gotta stop this foolishness."
-"Aww, you're no fun." Kazuma said, smirking. He reached his hand out and his katana zipped to his hand again. He flipped his grip on it and suddenly it was gone. "Let's get back to the others." He said, still smirking.

A grumbling was heard as the beast seemed to wiggle and twitch, "Uh oh..." Paul said as he walked over to it. Just then James crawled out from under the thing.
"I was still on its back!" He exclaimed glaring at Kazuma and Clep.
Paul laughed as he helped James to his feet, "Easy down brother. They were just doing their job," he said with a grin.
"So Paul, what are you doing here exactly?"
"Came here with-" Paul stopped as the wall at the end of the room shot down, revealing another giant, only this one had no helmet, both hands, two small eyes, and a mouth.
"YOU HAVE KILLED MY BROTHER! BUT I WILL NOT BE SO E-" it was cut off by a loud gunshot as one of its eyes exploded. The group turned around to see Luke standing there holding a smoking gun.
"Came here with Admiral Luke," Paul said with a smirk as he looked at Luke.
"Luke?" James asked, "What are you doing here?" Clep noticed a small door from where the second giant had come from.

Luke stepped forward, smiling softly, that familiar grin taking over his face as his hand twirled his gun for a moment, back to his lips blowing a wisp of smoke away from the barrel and spinning it once more, dropping it right back in its holster without much thought.
"Ah little old me? What? Can't a guy come to see his favorite nephew?" He chuckled softly, tilting his shades down a bit to glance over the group. "I was in the area~ Figured I'd check in on you to make sure you didn't die yet and all." Luke laughed a bit. "Your dad worrys about his little boy~" Luke taunted the man, before reaching his side and slapping a strong hand on his shoulder "But it is good to see you in one piece." He turned his eye to the group "Ah so this is part of the recruits I heard about?" He smiled.
Miles watched the impressive display of both men and sighed softly, deactivating his blade and placing both hands together, in a praying motion, and nodded "You were a worthy opponent indeed, rest in piece." He then turned to Luke, a bit shocked.
"I remember tale of you... one of the few legends of this galaxy yes?" He chuckled "To see you in the flesh is quite the honor..." He paused for a moment before nodding to him as well. "I am proud, Sir Luke."
As Miles spoke Luke attempted to wave it off, he did not really like the official terms, even from recruits and thanked Miles for his words before turning back to the others.

-Kazuma raised his hand in greetings towards Luke. "Hey, I'm Kazuma Magari. You're....Admiral Luke, aren't you? Wow, it's an honor." Just as Kazuma finished his greeting, everything froze. He felt a surge of energy after the recent battle. He grinned as the new power coursed through him. In front of his eyes, 4 cards appeared. He could barely make out the design on one, the others looked like they were windows that had been shot through. The design was of a little snowman-type thing with a blue hat that extended into two blue antennae-looking things. He was smiling, his mouth completely open and looked to be around a 1st graders age. Kazuma tried to reach out and grab his card, but all of the sudden, the cards flipped and began spinning around him like crazy. He just barely managed to keep an eye on the snowman card and reached out just as it passed in front of him. It hit his hand and stopped. Suddenly, he felt a stirring in his heart. Where he usually felt just Fall, he now felt the presence of this little guy as well. He called him forth from the depths of his heart and he materialized in front of Kazuma. "Hi, I'm Jack Frost!" The little snowman said, his voice innocent and sweet. "Hello Jack, I'm Kazuma." "Are you my new friend?" Jack asked politely. "Of course. You're a valuable addition to our team now, Jack." Kazuma said, smiling. Jack let out a cheer as he crept back into Kazuma's heart. As soon as Kazuma put his hand down, time continued forward.
-Cleptsii was about to introduce himself when he noticed the door. He cocked his head slightly in puzzlement. He felt something draw him to the door and before he knew it, he was walking over and opening it.

In the room Clep found only one thing. A sword stuck in stone.

-Clep slowly walked into the room, cautiously approaching the sword. It was a beautifully crafted sword, a longsword by the looks of it. It had a long silver blade, and a gold hilt with a slight guard jutting down from the guard. There was a ruby at the very end of the handle, and it seemed to glow, like a small fire was burning within it. Clep arrived at the stone and firmly grasped the handle. He tested it at first by lightly pulling. When it wouldn't budge, he grabbed the handle with both hands and pulled with everything he had.

The sword popped out as Clep noticed it was very light for its size.

Luke smiled over to Kazuma and nodded.
"A pleasure to meet you too ah Kazuma...that feels familiar for some rea- wait! I remember now!" He snapped his fingers, turning to the man and offering his hand with a smile "You are one of the most promising recruits Fallout mentioned...yes" He teased, laughing a bit, "It looks like you live up to expectations too." He smiled. "I am happy to see it."
After offering his hand, Luke looked around "Where is that other guy... " He hesitated and shook his head

-Clep studied the sword. Nothing happened. Then, all of the sudden, a booming voice echoed in his mind. "I AM THOU, THOU ART I. I AM ORPHEUS, YOUR GUIDE AND PROTECTOR." Clep clutched his head with his free hand and closed his eyes. He felt the voice resonating from the blade, and could even feel a slight thrumming coming from the ruby at the bottom. "Greetings Orpheus, I am Cleptsii Solamnia, knight of the Krynnian people." Clep said to the sword. "I know who you are, Cleptsii Solamnia. I have chosen you to wield me in battle. I shall guide you on your journey, as well as protect you from any harm that may follow you." The booming voice answered. "I see...." Clep said. A blinding light exploded from the ruby and Clep averted his eyes. The light died down and when he looked at his belt, a new scabbard had appeared. He slid Orpheus into it and walked out of the room. "Forgive me for leaving so suddenly." He noticed Luke and immediately stood straight up and saluted. "Admiral Luke, it is an honor to meet you. I am Recruit Cleptsii Solamnia." He said, his voice very stiff and honrable.

-"Ah there's the other one~" Luke smiled, nodding at his entrance and introducing and welcoming them all properly. After the introductions, Luke turned to James for a moment.
"The real reason I came by is to bring you all with me, there is a ship waiting outside to take us to the Olympus, your dad wanted to meet the gang I believe." Luke smirked a bit turning to the side to the others. "Congratulations lot, you get to board the most advanced ship in the galaxy~ So please, do wipe your feet." He said with that familiar grin of his before turning to the entrance, swinging his coat with one motion of his arm, and walking off down the tunnel

Critias turned to James as they walked into the ship.
"Wait, your father? I'll be meeting him so soon?" He said.
"This is a very odd turn of events... does this sort of thing happen often?" He asked jokingly.

"What does it matter...its happening now anyway" Sepp said slightly annoyed at Critias constant questions hoping a response would stop the questions.
"..even if you didn't come along...I'm sure word about you from James would reached the recruiters eventually and brought you here anyway.."
He pause slightly and spoke with a slight chuckle
"...they pestered me long enough...."
