Taran to the rescue?

As soon as Taran could, Taran set the ship to autopilot to go find n**. The last screen he saw her on wasn't too far off.

"n**?!" he called out, worried about her well-being. "Can you hear me?" he asked. He was almost to the point where he had last glimpsed her. He dashed through a doorway, and that's when he saw her, lying unconscious on the floor.

Muttering a dragon curse under his breath, he saw the barb stuck out her front and the line leading back to a... severed Renstok arm.

"Well, young lady." Taran said, kneeling down to her level. "At least you got them before they got you."

Taran proceeded to sever the barbed end of the thick arrow with lightening. It made quick work of the arrow. But then Taran had the unpleasant job of pulling the arrow back out of n**'s body from behind her.

"My sincerest apologies." Taran said as he pulled the arrow out as carefully as he could. The arrow had managed to miss her spine, but he wasn't sure it wouldn't be fatal anyways.

Se'rox and Leaving the Other Worlds Behind

Se'rox blinked as she felt ZuchaX III move to the far end of the mud pit. She got the feeling, suddenly, she had done something wrong somehow. However, she didn't ponder that long, as ZuchaX's question caught her by surprise.

"Hm. I guess... a few things, really." Se'rox said, not quite sure of the exact turn of events that brought her to Gaia. "I met my somebody, I guess, and managed to save her life." Se'rox sighed. It was most odd to save the life of the one person you always felt you should have been. "I... wanted to talk with her more, but this crazy person named Dragon, whose ship Rose was somehow on, was too much trouble. I came here because Rose lives on Gaia. Specifically, I came over here because I thought I felt the presence of the Organization, and... well, you know how much I don't like my visibility into portals."

Realizing she had almost rambled on, Se'rox stopped. She had come here, to Chazu's gaian home, because she trusted ZuchaX III with her life. But, how do you say that to somebody? More specifically, to a nobody?

Running a muddy hand through her mud splattered hair, Se'rox shrugged, and mumbled, "I came here because I trust you with my life."

Rose and Calming Down a little.

Rose had just gone past the point where her anger had tripped a boundary in her, and her demonic powers were flush, when Dragon and, Shal, and Wynn returned.

Rose laughed, though, when Dragon said her grandpa had just wanted to talk to them.

"Your grandpa? I thought your parents were dead. How come you never told me about a grandpa?"

Her temper was flaring, and she was just barely able to keep still and sort of calm. "What does this have to do with anything? I don't even know what's going on here!"

Rose wanted an answer. Nogard was still missing, and Dragon didn't seem to be including her in any plans for a rescue. She was tired of feeling like she was just along for the ride.
