Vapor appeared next to Prodigous. Saluting he grinned. "Accounted for!" Looking down his lips twitched. "Geez, this place used to have nobody here...just...nothing, I miss it."
Vapor stretched slightly and turned, brows furrowed in thought. "Wonder if he has anything to do with this? Nah...doubtful. But if I could find him, maybe it could be finished!"

Prodigous raised an eyebrow at the other man."I can read thoughts."He said in cold indifference. He kept looking down at the battlefield, trying to spot the woman.'Where is she. Maybe she was attacked before being able to reach this spot.'Prodigous bowed his head and prayed."Forgive me father for I have sinned, I have taken human life. Though in defense it was still needless. I pray to you in forgiveness, and in hope that you will help me make it through this day."

Vapor twitched a bit and turned around. "No way really?! That's so cool!" he was grinning widely, not even defending the fact that he was speaking aloud."Geez, I thought that stuff was in like, fantasies, y'know?" The calgor turned, looking up at the red, billowing fog. A frown creased his mouth as he looked down. "Hrm...I hope she makes it out okay..."
He turned back towards the opposite direction, and his ear twitched as he heard a prayer.
"Eh? You're praying?" Vapor tilted his head to one side."Human life? Ah, those are humans. They've been accumulating a lot recently...not that I mind humans, grew up with them, but eh they didn't much like me." He chuckled merrily. "Had a problem with a calgor family."

Eve killed another man before jumping up onto the building the other two were perched on."Mind telling me what happened there?"She asked grabbing her head."That was the weirdest sensation I've had in years."She looked at the man praying, and looked at him puzzling."No use praying for the dead their souls have already left their bodies. It's too late for them now."She sat down and threw her sticking it into the wall of the adjacent building."Thanks for the trick kid, I thought we were goners."

Prodigious finished his prayer and sat down looking at the woman."The prayer is for me. Murder is still a sin even in self defense, or in times of war."He looked back to the water calgor and shook his head no to his question."I've rarely seen your kind Calgor."He spoke in a even tone. Prodigious eventually grabbed a cloth out of his pocket and began to clean his blade.

"A sin perhaps, but in times of war, what can you do? If someone seeks enjoyment out of killing, then I think that's when it becomes sinful," Vapor said suddenly, looking up at the sky, the red fog slowly dissipating. "I mean...if you kill someone and then are slain yourself seconds later, you would not have enough time to ask for forgiveness." He shook his head slightly, and ran his fingers through his hair.
"You guys ever heard of anyone named Deluge?" He asked, tone hopeful. If he could only reach his brother, then maybe the outbreak of war would collapse in on itself. The calgor wasn't sure he could handle another war as vicious as the last.

"Yeah."She spun a finger around a lock of hair bored."Deluge is my employer, it's the reason I'm out here. These blokes leader."She motioned to the group of guards still searching for them."Owed Deluge alot of money."Eve turned to the boy."Why do you know him?"She looked at him closely."I knew I recognized you from somewhere. Are you an assassin for him, like I am."

Vapor tensed up, and mentally smacked himself on the head for that. Remembering that the man said he could read minds the calgor decided to think in a language he hoped the human wouldn't know. Te tankou woulo liv byen ak pawòl mwen se yon asasen... li ap kapab sèl chans mwen gen pou rive pre Deluge...*
"Yeah, just joined," he saluted happily. "I'm not very good at my job, I've been wandering mostly. Haven't been able to find home base and all. I'm such a scatter brain."
OOC: Translation: *Might as well roll with saying I'm an assassin...it'll be the only chance I have to get near Deluge...

Prodigious recognized the language the Calgor spoke but he couldn't decipher it.'This man is very odd.'He thought to himself."Who is this Deluge."He spoke evenly as he placed the bloody cloth into a pool of water that had collected on the roof and cleaned it free of blood."I've haven't heard of this man in my travels."Once he was satisfied that the cloth was as clean as it was going to get he returned it to his pocket.

Eve continued to spin her lock of hair."Deluge is one of the most feared person in the land of the Calgor's."She grabbed the mans scythe."Could I see this?"She asked not waiting for an answer. Eve hit the switch and the blade dropped."Interesting weapon you have here, did you make it yourself or did you kill a man for it?"She whirled the blade around making sure not to hit the other two."This must have taken years to master."

Prodigious stood up and walked to the edge of where Eve was twirling his weapon. He grabbed the blade of his weapon in middair and pulled the handle out of her hand. He continued to flip the switch retracting the blade back to its resting posistion."I created it, and it did take awhile to master."He strapped it onto his back."What does Deluge do?"He asked the two of them.

"I'm new so I'm not entirely sure," Vapor lied through his teeth. "Just looking for something to feel useful in."

He felt that the boy was lying, but decided to question him later."What are you doing here then?"He asked the boy in his steady monotone voice."If you two are both working for the man, shouldn't you be leaving by now?"He questioned the two of them further.

Serena pulled her hammer out of the wall and stood next to the group."Ehhhhh screw him. He hates humans anyway, he can wait."She kneeled on her perch looking down on the group of guards still looking for them."If I can kill a few more of these guys, and take their stuff I'll have enough money to help mother."She mumbled to herself.

Vapor sighed softly. Brother really hadn't changed...but he understood his dislike for humans. When they'd lived in the human's town, they'd been treated more like animals than people. Mother always had tried to get Deluge to see the light, but since her murder the water calgor had only got more and more enraged at the sight of humans. Was enraged the right word? Vapor wasn't about to think about what words fit his phsyco brother the best...he just needed to get to him.
"Your mother?" he asked, tilting his head to one side. That caught his attention.
