Final Fantasy RP Chapter 3

Dante · 01-09-2004, 06:54 AM

Dante noted the stares of the N'Revat soldiers and the surviving Rab troops. They seemed to ask who does this guy think he is, walking through the streets like he owned them? Dante didn't care. He was neutral, and he had a pass. He would not be attacked. If he was...

Then things would be pretty much par for the course, no?

Shut up. We're not fighting now. No need for senseless, suicidal violence.

A young private, his pike trembling in his hands, came up to him.

"S..sir, I'll need to see your identification..."

Dante looked askance at him and produced the pass. The soldier looked at it and beckoned his sergeant over. The gruff man returned Dante's cool defiance with a scowl.

"You sure 'bout this? This pass here is signed by Commander Dezil... and last I heard, he was out attacking the Capitol Building-"

I have a bad feeling about this...

"Yes. I met him, he gave me this pass and llet me leave."

The sergeant laughed, a short, harsh donkey's bray.

"Ha! As if! Dezil's as cold a man as his machines. He'd never do this for anyone! Men! Arrest hi-"

OOC: :rmage: DUN DUN DUNNN!!!

A hand glowing crimson caught the sergeant under his throat. The luckless man could feel his life draining away as the reversed cure spell infused him with baleful negative energy. Around him, Dante sensed a dozen crossbows pointed his way.

Par for the course, Dante...

His eyes blazed. "I don't need this!" Dante shouted. "There's no bloody point to any of this! Why can't you stupid bastards take yes for an answer and let me go?"

Negotiating's a lot harder when you're draining the life out of your hostage, Dante... heh heh heh... Kill them all and save yourself the trouble...

He blinked. The red glow faded from his hand and the sergeant managed to gasp a command.

"Lower your weapons! Drop them now, you idiots!"

The soldiers complied. So did Dante. He lowered the sergeant to his feet, and the soldier immediately fell to his knees, coughing and choking. He was about to say something when he noted Dezil's Magitek charging up behind him.

He'll call his men on you! Kill him! Kill him now!

I told you to shut up, right?

Dante stepped out onto the road, into Dezil's path. Surprisingly, the Magitek actually stopped in front of him.

"What do you want now?"

"I've been having a few... emigration problems. I doubt you'd want to lose these men if you could help it, and I don't want to make a big fuss out of the matter, so I would appreciate it if you would be so kind as to escort me out of the capital and thus avoid further scenes like... just now."
