The Guild of the Rose

"Lancelot... I would stand if I could but you know the status of me.. I am sure the potion does the same to you.."

Xavier was getting older by the minute.. Something really had to be done

"He is being himself again and won't leave the guild to get help"

"Alexander! I will never leave this place you know that."

"Sorry Xavier"

Xavier's hand came from the side of the chair to grasp another vial..

"This liquid which poisions my life and keeps me living from the curse of the afterlife"

Xavier threw it against the wall

"GOD DAMN IT! Why did things have to be like this"

Xavier just struggled to hold himself together anymore grasped the photo of Desert and held it close to him

"Guys am sorry... Am sick of this"
 
Lancelot saw Xavier and recognized a familiar problem. But it seemed as Xavier was in even worse shape than he was. The old and hardened skin, the veins were most likely giving up soon and the blood pressure was probably dropping from high to low all the time, resulting in headache and losing conscious. Not even to mention the result it had to magical powers. It felt like someone was casting constantly drain on your body, while draining everything you had and yet you never really run out of energy.

'' Well ... there is one another way .... but ...'' Lancelot told with lazy voice and smiled to Xavier.

'' The way how Solidjuss managed to live for thousand years and maybe a bit more .... the only true way to trick the death. But it's not easy to find any crystals of Terra or also known as the crystals of reborn. If it would have been easy, I wouldn't look as old as I do now ...'' Lancelot continued and then stood up.

'' A week ago, I managed to locate the last two crystals on earth ... but there is one problem. You remember Satan right? Well when Solidjuss and Shadow beat him, they left everyone else in Hell alive. And well ... for now, it's overrun by the darkness ... filled with beasts that no-one has seen on earth since the mages wars.'' Lancelot told and turned around, looking on the pictures of former guild leaders. Even Solidjuss was there, after all he was the last leader, but gave his position away the moment he thought that everyone have died.

'' So what do you think? '' Lancelot told and thought about the crystals of reborn. It was said, that once you wear the crystal and die, you will reborn at the age of 20. The only negative effect was, that it exhausted your sould and for like a month or so, you were inable to regain your former powers.
 
"I would rather die than have no powers... It seems to be my destiny to be old now.. after all.. Its been thousands of years... finally I may be able to be with her again"

Xavier stood up

"Lancelot.. you may go after these crystals... but I shall not have one. go after one and myself and alexander shall accompany you."

Xavier looked at alexander

"Some of us just have to face our destiny at the right time"

Xavier looked down at the picture of Desert...

"After all... Its only worth fighting for love"
 
Lancelot was a bit surprised, but in the end, he didn't expect less from Xavier himself.

'' Well if that's the case ... we shouldn't waste anymore time. After all ... I don't have left more than a week or two.'' Lancelot told, with a bit worried voice. He raised his look and gave a quick glance to Xavier.

'' Are there any motorcycles left in the guild?'' He then asked.
 
Xavier looked through his vials...

"Hmm here try this.. Its a much more potant version of the original potion.. Gives you that extra edge" He threw the vial Lancelots way.

"Erm motercycles..Sure but i'll travel my own way there..." Xavier whistled and a crack in the floor opened up and a kind of hellhound crawled out which resembled the form of a large gorrilla.

"Alexander can take Unicorn... I am sure there is my prototype glossiar ring motercycle left in the garage. Use that"
 
Lancelot smiled to Xavier and turned around.

'' Well, we will meet in the mansion of Mr.Hell. Remember the building in the far southern border of Lancia? It's the only way to hell nowadays.'' Lancelot told and went to garage. A nice looking bike was waiting there for him.

'' Hehe ... I haven't ride one of those for decades.'' Lancelot muttered and jumped on it. And a moment later he was gone together with the bike.
 
Xavier stood on the top of the stairs..

"hmph.. never got the hang of it"

Xavier clicked his fingers and his mound came over to him and picked him up onto his back

"So its to Mr. Hell's Mansion.. Alexander lets go"

Xavier pointed towards the motorcylce in the distance

"Follow that friend"
 
Lancelot was driving with his bike as fast as he was able to, but Xavier and Alexander caught him in mere hour or even less.

'' I see your pets are amazingly fast eh ... '' Lancelot told with bored voice and continued driving. For 7 hours in a row, they had traveled non-stop, until finally Lancelot pulled the break.

'' It's getting dark you know ... and we should get some rest as well. We are not in the first youth.'' Lancelot told with clear voice and sat down. With a simple hand movement, he summoned a fireplace to the middle and set it on fire.

'' I have missed all those camping nights from the past. Kings like me don't have often the opportunity to go out to the nature.'' Lancelot continued. His voice, it was a lot more fragile and quieter than it was back in the guild. Maybe he was just exhausted from the ride.

'' The mansion is still hours away ... anyway, what have you done in the last 100 years?'' He asked with questioning voice and gave a glance to Alexander.

OOC: Anyway, I'm wondering what happened with Stephen/Chris redfield , Lone-wolf and shadowjet :D and was there someone more?

OOC: I don't know tbh

IC : Xavier sat down... alexander sat next to him

"I was kidnapped by orcs... for 40 years I spent planning an escape.. But didn't need too"

Alexander jumped in " Me and my riders slaughtered the orcs and rescued the lord, no orcs take a ex king captive"

"All of the riders but me were wiped out.. you could say me and xavier are the last of a kind"
 
'' Well, I think my last 100 years were kind of different ... for example, I died for 4 times ... '' Lancelot muttered and smiled to Xavier. He coughed for a moment and then continued talking.

'' To be honest, if I would have avoided at least 1 death, I wouldn't be hunting for the last 2 crystals of rebirth ...'' His voice, it was a little bit ironic.

'' Anyway, I'm way too tired to start my story ... maybe some next time.'' His voice really felt tired. And then, he fell asleep.

'' We will move out early in the morning!'' He told trough the world of dreams.
 
The birds were signing in the trees. The fire had long gone out but morning had broken.

Xavier stood up and looked around. It was a long time since he had seen the world in the morning like this..

"Ha.. something worth fighting for I feel not"
 
The sudden clap caused by Xavier woke Lancelot up. Slowly, he stood up and gave a look to the surrounding.

'' Just beautiful, isn't it?'' He asked cautiously from Xavier. He took his spear and seated it.

'' Now, let's get going.'' said Lancelot while he jumped on his bike.

'' We got no time to lose.''
 
Xavier took a look around...

*sigh*

He jumped onto the back of his mount and started to ride forwards.

The truth of the matter was.. Xavier wasn't just admiring the countryside that morning... He was saying goodbye.

Alexander rode up next to Xavier.

"Are you okay Xavier, you look very weak"

"I'm okay Alexander.. Just weak"
 
OOC: Sorry for the REALLY long delay ....

IC:

The bike and the beasts were moving at high speed, unmatched by the creatures of the nature. And in time, the forest where they were moving, got darker and darker. The athmosphere, it felt dense and dark and shadows were lurking behind the trees. When finally, Lancelot had to stop. The road was gone, not leading any further.

'' Be cautious ... these beasts here are no weaklings!'' He said and gave a glance to the sky. The clouds, they were all colored in black and soon, it started raining.

'' Here we come!'' Lancelot shouted while unseating his spear. Two shadow like beasts were cut in to thousand of pieces. A bear like dark mass charged at him. An elegant jump and slash. Blood burst out from the mass and it fell to the ground.

'' Follow me and kill everything that attacks you!'' He told and started running. Once in a while, beasts charged at them.
 
Xavier drew his staff and cast a bubble around himself..


"The days are not as old as they seem"

"Lancelot, there is ancient magic in this forrest about to be cast... Move and don't look back.. Reach Hell's Mansion.. We shall meet you there.."

Xavier and alexander took a left just behind Lancelot.

Xavier pointed his hands quickly and cast float onto lancelot..
"Fly there much easier"
 
Lancelot flew as fast as he was able to.

'' God, I have missed flying!'' Lancelot said to himself and rushed towards Hells mansion while not looking back. Not even once.
