Drenched in the throes of combat, Gildarts was burdened with the quips from the Malefactor, none of them, save one, deserved his attention, Uh-oh, looks like the little girl is having a little difficulty, this observation was followed by a feminine snicker, and Gildarts swept his feet swiftly to his other side, and caught Guu, having some difficulty with her form. With some quick thinking, they’d evaded the ambush Gildarts was wheezing. Shapes were getting foggy and Guu seemed much taller. His eyelids fell and darkness came with it.
When Gildarts awoke, he was groggy, and Guu was looking much more mature, and banging her wrist against the side of the boat. Smog was everywhere, and there was no breeze, meaning they were dead in the water. The mage propped himself up with his silver hand, and eyed Guu’s actions with a little more focus, the bracelet just didn’t seem to be coming off, “Oh hi, you’re awake! Bout time. Here, see if you can get this off of me, one of them slipped it on and its enabling my shapeshifting abilities.”
The fog made anything beyond the boat difficult to see, and the murky air was stagnant, boiling the heat up in the space that they shared. In the water, which was still, traces of glowing flower petals speckled around the slightly rippling surface while fireflies danced in and out. Twilight fell darker and darker, but Gildarts was oblivious to it all. He leaned forward wrapping his hands around the two thin pieces of metal, and tugged, only to be met by an electrifying ZAP!
The magic bracelet crackled with the wizard’s magic and he was sent flying off the boat, as well as some of the fireflies that were buzzing in the air had fallen, shocked or hit with magnificent force of magic that swatted them to their deaths. Gildarts had landed pretty far out with a sploosh! and Guu had looked concerned for a moment, until his head bobbed above the water, good, he was still breathing. Then, her dark womanly eyes looked back at her wrist, with exaggerated annoyance, “Dang. It must be on good if even Gildarts can’t get it off.”
Gildarts splashed through the water and was weighed down by his cape, so he had to untie it and let it sink with the dark depths of water. Next, came the ‘how can I get into the canoe without tipping it over with Princess Guu inside’ which turned out to be rather comical. Guu sat on the opposite side of the canoe, while Gildarts, steel appendages and all, pulled himself atop the tipsy canoe. “Careful, it’s going to tip!” Guu exclaimed, and Gildarts’ organic hand slipped, causing him to crash ker-splat! right back into the water.
Second -plop! no, third time’s the charm. Gildarts entered the boat with his iconic shirtless, muscly chest wrapped in now wet white bandages, across his torso and over his shoulder. The Prime was tan and attractive, and only no just set his eyes on Guu, “Oi, did you... Get taller?” Guu was now much older, and her eyelashes had filled out gorgeously emphasizing the deep color of her irises.
“Yes, I’m glad you at least noticed now, it took you long enough,” Her girlish sass was still there, which was good, as Gildarts wouldn’t have believed it was the same woman -er- girl.
Glancing side to side, he posed the question, “So where are we, and what are we-” Gildarts was interrupted, by music that seemed to come from nowhere. It was music one might slow dance to, and while he could’ve had a partner right in front of him, this was hardly the time. Still, his muscles were rippling and dew was still rolling off of them. There was something in the air, making it heavy and hard to breathe. It was also effecting his body in the way that he began to get dizzy unless he was looking at Guu. She too found himself staring at Gildarts, who observed, “There’s something in the fog, its making me sick, do your best to cover your mouth while I try and push us out of this.”
Guu was still fiddling with the bracelet absentmindedly but sighed and complied to his wishes, taking a loose garment and covering her mouth. Gildarts charged up some magic, and released it into the water, causing a huge, dramatic splash. Water stayed around them in a perfect circular wall, hovering nicely in the air, before falling like a waterfall, and bringing down with it, a good amount of the fog. Now, they knew what direction to go in, and had some cleaner air to breathe.
The ferryboat seemed to have disappeared and the land was about a mile or two out. Gildarts seamlessly abandoned ship again, seeing how there were no oars, and began to push. Time moved along nicely, until the wooden boat began to unnecessarily creak. First, it was every few minutes or so, and Gildarts had been paddling for a while, next, though, the time increments shortened and the creaks became bumps in the raft, though there was nothing for the boat to run into. Guu alerted Gil, “There’s something underneath the ship,” but the mage was all too aware of it, for a green vine came out of the water and edged close to Guu’s hand, which was dangling over the edge, sulking slightly, due to the invisible chains that now bound her form.
Gildarts released some magic into the water, and they blasted off, like a rocket, or a skimming stone across the water. The burst was enough to get them far from whatever that green water-monster was, but the vine had broken off and still attached to Guu’s arm, it just wasn’t her lucky day for bracelets, now she had a slimy green one, and a gold one with a gem. The green one fell with a gentle splash into the water, and Gildarts and Guu had now rocketed toward land. It was nice, having a mage with crazy powers that almost matched Guu’s around. Their differences helped them get along better, until a crazy demon-parasite began to talk in your head again, and the other person could hear because of telepathic abilities...
Gildarts... The voice called ominously. Guu called back, “Oh, put a sock in it.”
They had breached land, and Gildarts pushed boat so that Guu could debark her raft with ease, meanwhile the mage’s legs were a little shaky as they adapted to solid land. He swept his hand over his damp hair to push it back, and his eyes fell on the town.
Basic houses everywhere, then, once you got past the outskirts, there were a few large buildings, probably hotels and other business establishments. Gildarts shook his legs, but his shorts had stuck to his legs and he was drenched, it probably wouldn’t dry for at least an hour or two, based on how humid and murky the air was. It was amazing, and superb how in the middle of no where, there were places like this, all made possible by Omnillium of course, and the magic that was this world, so it wasn’t hard for Gildarts to fathom, and yet... It still had that special charm that all of humanity, and other species had, a sense of community, a sense of friendship, a- “Hey, that guy’s stealing our boat!” Guu exclaimed, but neither primes did anything to stop it, and the kid took off with an oar in one hand, and pushed the boat into the water and was drifting along, much faster than Gildarts had even swam.
He remembered this town, and the people in it, were all conning them, it was all a show, and they were part of it, just to what extent, Gildarts and Guu would find out soon enough.
