Magic had existed for so long. How it was discovered was a mystery to all. Technology had advanced during time. Now Gaia was in an age of peace. Although men and women were welcomed to join the militia. As some suggested centuries ago. The main countries of the world were now allianced. But soon this Utopia built was to be crumbling into oblivion. Man had once again thought of evil deeds. Magic enhanced this. An army was raised from what seemed over night. Counquering much of the land. Then everything started anew of this new Tyrant. Years had passed, then centuries. It seemed he still remained. How this could happen who knows.
Three continents were left. Solitudine, the country had the greatest navy and council. Next was Lagowit, they controlled the air what stood against them was soon brought down but they also had many of great artists. Wether they were singer, painters, dancers, or actors. The final continet was Fiyyun. It as you may guess held the land bound army. Though few could match them. Their knights were of legends.
As it would have it. A fourth continet laid in the south. No one stepped on it since the Century War happened. It was forgotten of course. But it was larger then Solitudine and Fiyyun combined. Finally the day broken with war. Men and women were stationed for war. Though at each other. The fourth continet was also void of this. It held many secrets but were said this was the origin of all legends.
A final note. Each man, women or child. And creature. Had a special talent. Wether to create a polka dot on a skirt or to Summon the very power of the weather. Some could change forms. These were the ways of the world.

The navy fleet was all new technolgoy. The haul of the ships were made of a new alloy found by the famed scientist Dr. Conusa. He also outfitted Lagowits with their new fighter planes. he also helped create many of the local pistols used by Fiyyun. Their sleek looks, they looked flashy but they also packed a punch. He never envisioned his works to help destroy the allienced nations. He had summoned his assistant and several other men and women he had met over the span of ten years. They each had were of the three nations. Were the councils of the three continets being lead by a mysterious force? Magic had its uses. Mostly to for convinience and such. But all three of the over grown countries were now implying them for war. These times were bleak. A millenia ago, Kings and Queen called forth Knights and adventurers to right these wrongs. But now everything had changed. Who was to protect them now?
Talents had different caliber's in their magic. Some surpass others.
Sorcerer/Sorceress- These talents are virtually the power of humans. ExamplesSuch as being able to control the weather, immune to magical effects. To combine magical elements. Enhancement to magical or natural abilities. To have an anitmagic field around them to a certain extent.
Neo-Sorcerer/Sorceress-These abilities are a level below Sorcerers. Though they had also quite formable. ExamplesThese may be transforming a human being into a inanimate object such as a book. Or to be able to turn men, women and animals to stone.
Medium Level- Now this types of magic are more of variety. Examples Like being able to go back in time ten seconds(This might give a person a chance to redo something of great importance). To turn back time but age for that amount of time being turned back. Growing roses even if it is impossible. Summoning one type of magical or natural animal.
Almost Worthless- Now even worth having it but still there. Examples A small green dot on the wall, Being able to have bad ideas more then good ones.

(I will be playing both a good and bad guy..)
A man wearing a white trench coat and black garbs under the coat walked through the town of Fiyyun. He used to be one of the great knights but backed out due to the fear of death. That was a good 30 years ago. The 49 year old man continued forward. His hair was almost grey besides the remaining black. Through the years the man had learned that he had nothing, no one to come home to, no one to trust. He began ancient studies and gained a special power. The man learned to combine elements to make an ultimate element. Though he was old he had excellent hearing, besides his color blindness which occured to him at the age of 26 when he was trying to synthesize the ancient element. He would now try to find something better to do with his life, like journeying to find people with special elements he could further synthesize with.
High atop the tyrant's castle stood a large dragon. The dragon almost looked like it's grinning. The black dragon then leapt from the castle wall to turn into a bird. The bird hit the ground as a man formed. This man was a great and mighty general, even though his leader had suspision against him. This man could transform into anything, gaining physical appearance, strength, and skill. Sadly he could not take mental ability and could not use any magic unless he became the elements themselves. It has changed so much that it forgot it's real look, whether it was a male or female or even human was a mystery. The thing always made itself into a man though since it fit more power. The main thing that drives him to doing the tyrant's bidding, is hatred, insanity, and the love for death. When he looked like a man he had on a red shirt, black pants, and a skull tatoo on his left arm. His hair was bright red and his eyes white. His nails were an inch longer than they should be and he always smelt like rotted deceased.

The young woman had answered the professer's call. She had awoken about 4:30am. What on Gaia did he need this time? She had to wake up in two hours anyways but still what did the old man want? The female took a long shower and blow dried her hair. SHe had put on a simple white blosue and black knee length skirt. Plus some high heels. Then she grabbed her lab coat and car keys. Oh... she almost forgot the paper work the good Doctor asked her to bring. She quickly grabbed the large stack of files. Many of them were men and women in the three nations. She entered the silver car and drove down the street to the institute. She went to a coffe house and ordered a large french vanilla. Thank god they never closed. Soon enough she was the complex. She pciked up the files and coffee. Good thing they only needed a retna scan. Magic and science had their places. And security was one of them. She went to the main labratory and set the folders on the man's desk. " Hello?" sha called out.

The man finally entered the complex, moving through the ID tests, and entered the lab. His desk which had the name "Dr. Mandoza" on a plate and looked at the girl standing at the desk. "You got all the files right?" He asked, pulling the stack of folders to his direction. The man's name was Doric Mandoza, though he used to be part of the military he quit out of cowardice and switched to books where he learned many things. He then pursued the scientific life where he would excel. By his desk layed many instraments which had many different elements. Whenever someone looked at the display they always felt a few elements missing. Doric was so close to discovering all the elements and the true power that he could just smell the success and money.

The young woman turned around and nodded at Dr. Mandoza. " Professer may I ask what these files are for?" she questioned. She was onl an intern until last spring. Now she worked with the most prestigious man in the known world. Her name tag read " Daryl Montgomery". She had frost kissed skin and bright green eyes, with copper coloured hair. And this was all natural. She stood aproximately at 5'7 and weighed roughly at 104 pounds. She was a petite woman in societies eyes. Her magical talent was to do with her singing. It was minor though, it gave the man, woman or creature empathy to her emotion while she sang. And it was intensified when others felt the exact same thing. In times of war this was actaully a formable talent that could have been exploited if not for the good doctor.

"Of course." He said and taking out a very large book. He began flipping threw pages quite quickly until he found the correct page. Then he handed to her. "Read page 526" He said as he put a glass of coffe on the table. The page talked about a legendary dragon, the king of all dragons, named Bahamut. That dragon was able to cast a an all elemental attack that canceled all elements out. This spell was built up of all elements. Since most elements destroy the other, they all cancel out to make a light element that had no real element. It seemed quite confusing but Mandoza had the power to synthesize all elements together. Sadly there are so many elements in the world that Doric would need a whole new life time in order to gather them to make the element. Mandoza has no family, no wife, nor kids so no one to continue his expiriment. This girl might prove useful if she could learn to grapple the techniques in which took Doric half his life to learn.

" Doctor you do know he is but a myth. A fairy tale to get children to go to bed. Although I must admit that he might swoop anytime and take me did make me listen to my mother more" she replied to her employer. Bahamut? Honestly he's only a children's story.... isn't he? Well this would be interesting if nothing else. " But what is the relevance of the men and women in the folders to this... dragon?" she asked. Dragons died long ago. Well many of them. There has been recent rumours of several dragons taking residence in the four continets.
They knew of the elusive land but had fears of what might happen. It seems an Crystal Dragon nested to the North of Fiyyun's capital. A dragon in the east of Solitudine's largest port, it was supposibly a black dragon. then next sprouted the rumour of the Gold dragon laying in Lagowits. Then a mysterious rumour saying of the largest of all of them. Could they possibly mean.... Bahamut? ' Nonsesne' Daryl thought.

Doric laughed. "My girl.. Those are possible elemental casters. I'll pay them for me to collect a small sample of their elements. When I get all of them the spell could be so great... And yet... So disasterous that all of Gaia would know." He said with a smirk then laughed. "I'm sure it isn't that disasterous, I was just kidding with you." That book in the doctor's posession was one of a kind and was lost for centuries. The book looked as if it was just published, but as you carry the book you feel so much history from it that it was as if the book itself had powers. Mandoza loved his work even if people did call him crazy. Yet they saw what he could do with the elements as he would form them by hand.

The roar of several airborne vehicles could be heard just entering the (town?) of Fiyyun. The planes filled the sky like an alluminum cloud, about fifty aircraft total, most were bombers. The squadron in the front of the formation consisted of eight fighter jets. Eight powerful craft, each with one very skilled pilot. This squadron was known as 'Ofnir squadron'. A message was sent out to all pilots from the AWACS or Airborne Warning And Control System. "Attention, due to drastic circumstances, we have been forced to step into Fiyyun with weapons. But note when this land becomes ours, we will have their ground technology! And have the ground and air power to destroy the country to our west!" No reply was givin' back, but alot of the pilots knew this was a suicide mission. Returning to the Ofnir squadron, they were assembled by skill, Ofnir 1 being the best of the best, and Ofnir 8 being the worst of the best.
Ofnir 6, a young asian woman named Kei Nagase, simply looked forward, keeping an eye on her flight lead. The go code was sent in by the AWACS. "Alright Ofnir, engage! Keep an eye out. These guys maybe be the best on the ground, but that doesn't mean they can't it anything in the air, and I'm not counting on it, but dragons and such might play a threat here." The Captain responded. "Roger, Flanker engaging." He had stated his callsign, as did the other pilots in formation. When it was Nagase's turn, she announced 'Edge engaging.' The eight lead jets broke formation, now flying over the city. "Don't attack until the air-raid alarm goes off."

" I know Sir, but the problem is that the countries are at war. How will this help us? The dragon Bahamut from legend is quite the fearsome force. Even if the three great nations at their hight of power" she tried to reason with him. How could a group of men and women help them even if they had talents of the elements. Magic was a level all of it's own. And Bahamut was certainly imbued to with stand much force. Apperantly the last great battle with the King od Dragons was against a group of humans. They had faired quite well actually. And succeded in subuing the massive force of pure destruciton. Though they had allies. Harpies, Elven folk, A dragon, and also a mysterious woman. And at best they had put him in hibernation. Then how could people now take care of him? Much of the nations prefered peace. But with this oncoming war brewing. This only complicated the problem even further. " Maybe if we can somehow settle everything then we might stand a chance against him. But what of his generals?" she also added.

The squadron had been over the city for about 30 seconds, when out of nowhere, a missile flew past them, colliding into an apartment complex. Some of the wall had collapsed, and a fire started up. An enraged AWACS transmission greeted every pilot. "Hey! Who fired that?! Which one of you fired?!" But it didn't matter now. The air-raid alarm had been set off. "Damn't! Alright! All squadrons engage!" The aircraft dispersed. A bomb dropped from one of them smashed into one of the college buildings, and soon after, it was ablaze. "Ofnir! Make sure you eliminate and enemies that pose a threat to the bombers."
Nagase stared out the side of her cockpit. Fires had already started, the Fiyyuns starting a counter-attack. A transmission from a bomber came through. "This is Abel 4, something electrical hit me! I can't control my flaps or elevators! I'm losing altitude!" She quickly recognized the plane in distress. It went down a few moments later, crashing into the grass of the outskirts. "This is insane. Why are we attacking civilians?" She foolishly let that message to the other Ofnir, but luckily only one received it. "Ofnir 6, don't let the Captain hear that. He'll mark you as a traitor in an instant."

The local militia had everything monitored. Even with human help, magic and technology only took things to a certain extent. Several complexes would be contacted at once. The labratory with Doctor Mandoza, would be almost at the top. This city was more well enough to take on either navy or air based attacks. They were right on the coast and the outskirts of the city was a mountain side. The video screen had popped up. With Daryl's father showing up. She had never understood why her father wanted his passive daughter to join the army.
" Hello Daryl, Dr. Mandoza. We are about initiate the counter measure. One of the components is based within the labratory. Of course both of you know this. Please type in the password then take all valuables that you can handle and go to the bunkers underneath the city" he announced. General Montgomery said this with concern but why wouldn't he? He was adressing the one man in existance that made the most major findings and his only child. Of course he would need to be curteous.
She had nodded and noticed that the good doctor was already packing his research material, the folder, the book and of course his laptop. Everything else would be easily replaced. Daryl manuveured towards the main computer and typed in the military code. Then several more. Finally a blank screen popped up, then a smaller screen in the middle. The final pass code was put in. Then Daryl had packed everything that she needed. And typed in her own password to one of the consoles near the southern wall. This opened a gate way. Hopefully not collasped and they could easily go to one of the many bunkers underneath they City of Garx and the close by mountain scape.

"This is AWACS Cloudcobra! Bomber Squadrons: Abel, Cain, and Eve, target the central area! Bomber Squadrons: Python, Taipan, and Viper, target the western sector. All other bombers, standby. Now, fighter squadrons! Defend them at all costs!" This message was relayed to all the aircraft by the AWACS flyng above. The aircraft was their order keeper, without it, the operation would fail. The wilco codes were given by all the bombers, as they set out for the designated areas. Explosions came here and there, but the fires were spreading. Then, the Captain of the Ofnir's announced. "My team, engage air-to-ground missiles. Were going to hit their town center! Hard!"
Nagase didn't even think before blurting out. "But sir--" She was cut off by the Captain. "Ofnir 6! 1st lieutenant Kei Nagase! You'd better kill that motor for a mouth, or I'm going to write you up! got me? Good! Now engage!" They shifted course quickly, heading at a downward slant toward their target building, which would be more or less obvious to figure out.

She had gotten the Doctor through the gate. Daryl took a step back and input the code again. He was stuck to go down it since the password was in the labratory.. She had checked the tunnel incase of a possible collapse but there was no debris, by the camera's. The young woman had again gone to the computer but at a slower pace then before. She had accessed the City's outdoor televisions. She put on the video camera and started to play it. Her picture was displayed on all the outdoor screens and large speakers boomed over the daily crowds for announcements. So this was probably the easiest way to communicate with the populas and the attackers.
" Attention all citizens of Garx. This is not a test. Please go to the safe houses" she said into the microphone. " Air force of Lagowit this is Daryl Montgomery, daughter of General Morae Montgomery. Desist in your attack or else the city's defenses shall strike back with enough force to destroy half of your air crafts. Your safety is not going to be guaranteed once you commence your firing" Daryl informed the hostile party. Even now she was taking after her mother. The diplomat, how long ago did her mother come in and established a peace treaty with Solitudine. It did not matter this was not the naval nation was it?
