Leoshi was walking along the streets. As he walked, other townsfolk merley gave his glances. The fact that so many others where wathing was uncomfortable. Nonetheless, he tried to ignore them and kept on.
"So many. This place is filled with crime. I regret having to do this. ...I must find the others."
As he walked, he suddenly came to a halt. Up in an alleyway, he saw a shadowy figure starring right at him. Leoshi instantly took the book and opened it up, ready to defend himself should anything go awry.
Instead, the shadow rushed away behind the alley.
"How long was I being watched? And who else may be in on this?" he thought. "Something's definetly amiss if spies are observing my movements. I hope the others haven't been spotted as well."

Jay quickly ran toward a Warp Pipe, which led me underground above Rougeport. He walked the rest of the way, and saw a pipe going up. Jay went inside and found myself above ground. This place was just about...a dump. Bandits were roaming around, try to pick pocket anyone. He didn't care, he just kept walking.
While walking, Jay felt something behind me. A Bandit! He tried to get something out of there. He quickly took out my sword and pointed him near the face. "If you value your life, get away," he said. The bandit walked away slowly and ran. Jay just looked at him with a small grin on my face. 'I wouldn't kill him, I just beat the stuffing out him, if he did.' He thought. He kept walking. Just trying to hope nothing bad happens...yet...he had a feeling that something will.

I exited the forest as fast I came in; it wasn't very widespread to begin with. I could see skyscrapers in the town, but they were a good three miles away or so. Crossing a field of nothing but a wide open space of grass, I took caution of the ground and a few houses that were in the distance. "I hope I don't get caught..."
As I approached one of the houses, which was still a good mile and a half away, the terrain started to become hillier. Walking up and down the hills were starting to become a pain. The steepest sat a house on it. "How am I going to get around this house without getting noticed...?"
I climbed up the hill, walking straight at the house. As I came closer to it, I started crawling. When I reached the other side, I sprinted toward the city. It was still another mile or two away; I became tired quickly. I slowed my pace; it didn't seem as if I was getting closer...

Atticus drew his sword, and placed it on Jay's shoulder from behind, "It's anything but wise to show off to the bandits in this..place. Drawing attention to yourself is all you need. I assume you're here for the mission as well, I reccomend you don't do something like that again, if you value your very existance, boy," he spat. The sword left Jay's shoulder, and footsteps could be heard, Atticus walking towards the center.
"Keep up, all ready, or do you wish to be left behind?", the footsteps just continued, fading away eventually, if Jay didn't keep up. The swordsman gave a sideways glance at Leoshi, then fixed his eyes in front of him, seemingly ignoring the half-jogging dragon headed for an alleyway. He just wanted to get this done and over with.

Robert made it to rougue port and kept his money by his hand,which was close to his gun, to make sure he came and left with the same amount of cash. "Now where was his house again". some bandits decided to hold him up however. "hand over the cash and no one gets hurt",one said. "if anyone is to get hurt,it would be you and your group",robert said with a smirk". robert brought his gun out,but then he jumped over the nearest one and shot a nerby wall to get their attention and he ran twords the center of town".

BANG was all I heard after the crazy shapeshifter turned into a smiley face. I went flying, but I was still gripping the face. "AAAHHHHHAAAHHHH!!!!!" I screamed. I saw the ground above me, along with a greenish warrior. He was standing near a blue Yoshi with a book. I landed on the light blue Yoshi, still holding the face despite being flung into the air. "Sorry!"

'Oh, boy. Someone else is trying to kill me.'
He walked on to try to catch up. He saw another Yoshi nearby, and also a Dragon, who seemed pretty messed up. He looked aorund and saw some residents. However, that guy saying that stuff to him and try to threaten him got Jay pretty upset, He had a pulse mark right on his head, but he cool down.
'What does that guy know about me? I am not a showoff. I was just joking. He pulls that sword on me one more time...'
He didn't let him bother him, much, so he kept his cool and kept walking.

"WHEEEEE!!!" I cried, one of the few words I knew in English...well, it was pretty much universal. I was flying through the air, and in the air, I changed into a pancake and after having flown through the air with the little clawed creature and the dino, landing with a loud slap. Odd how I loved to turn into comical things...and a pancake did exactly that.

There was a loud explosion, and then someone had run past toward the sound of it. "hey! are you..." he was a little late, the runner had already disappeared from view. Some smoke rose into the air a short distance away, near where the sound could have come from, it wasn't too far actually; Cory got up off the ground and jogged over to see. There was a small crowd gathered, debris was scattered around the immediate area, and everything was scorched black. "Mixed worlds?" he asked, hoping that someone would respond.

"Myaa?! What is this Mixed Worlds garbage?! I have no interest in escorting this Harold Sir person to safety! This man is trying to take my freedom from me! Who are these fools to think I was right for the job?!" Kymek had just returned to his home in underground Rogueport, finding and reading a paper that was sitting on his desk.
" Myaa... I do no good for the people... And yet, I do not know why I never considered it." Kymek sat down on a wooden chair next to his desk and propped his head up with his hand and elbow. "Where do I come from? This endless fountain of power my wand draws from, where is it?" Kymek stared at the ruby red tip of his wand, thinking deeply. He kept staring at it, he began to see something in it, an insignia? Yes, it looked like the head of great koopa, with mouth wide open and horns on top of the head. Kymek did not yet recognize it, but it was the Bowser insignia.
"What is this, what does it mean?... That is it, I must know the source of my power, I must find it, wherever it comes from is where I belong." Kymek retrieved his broom leaning on the wall and mounted it, he flew it directly into a pipe and up until he reached the top and was flying skyward.
Kymek flew to the central plaza of Rogueport. Kymek spotted a green dragon about the average size of a human adult. For the first time in a long while, Kymek dismounted the broom out in the open and called for the attention of someone else.
"Myaa? Sir! Did you say Mixed Worlds? Did you recieve a notice too? The, perhaps, you could help me with something?" He called to the dragon. "Ahem, yes. Could you tell me if you recognize this insignia? Just stare at the ruby there, I will not trick you, I am in need of assistance, I swear it." Kymek pointed the ruby on his wand towards him, waiting on a response.

Leoshi watched the frantic Yoshi, as she was clinging to the, uh, pancake?
"There's something you don't see everyday." He commented. "...this town is even weirder then I thought."
"Ah, but still... that shot and this one screaming will draw attention to us unless we move at once." he thought.
Holding the book, he began to walk away. "I hope I can just get this overwith."

I struggled, but I finally managed to make it to Rougeport. "Finally..." I panted when I reached the outskirts of town, but I was also relieved that I made it in. I stopped to rest a while, almost falling asleep. About seven minutes later, I realized that I was still laying on the ground. Going into town, I noticed a group of people gathering around over something. I couldn't see what it was, but smoke was coming out of it.
Someone was yelling for the Mixed Worlds people, one of which is me. I budged into the crowd to find the location of the caller. I couldn't find him, but I did raise my hand in response. "I'm over here!"

Arriving on the scene of the explosion, Hizeme was immediately treated to dissapointment. Nothing had caught on fire, just scorch marks all over... Frowning, her whiskers drooping with the added touch of the flame on her tail turning over to a calm blue, Hizeme was clearly disappointed.
"Hmmph..." she muttered, silently wondering if she should cause some excitement... No, this was official Mixed Worlds business. Pushing away the thoughts of a hearty burning, Hizeme was back in tune with reality in time to hear someone ask: 'Mixed Worlds?'
"Mixed Worlds? Who said that?" she asked, eagerly tilting her head side-to-side. Tail flame back to a bright orange, excitement clearly flashing in her red eyes, Hizeme's eyes quickly picked out a likely candidate for the voice: a green dragon. Upon picking out her target, she began to lazily stride over to him.

3 people had apparently responded to his call, Cory smiled, this worked much better than he'd expected. "There's my team!" he said, he gestured to the blue yoshi to come over and looked at the other two: another dragon, and some koopa wizard. "glad I found you all, I've been kinda lost here 'cause my letter didn't say where to meet up with the team." Cory was excited, so he only took a glance at the wand and said, "looks like Bowser, mr. Koopa" He put his full attention back to continuing his introduction, "oh, anyway, I'm Cory..." he stuck out his hand to shake and continued, "...I don't think we've met have we?"

The word "Bowser" was all Kymek needed. "...You...You mean... I draw my power from the castle of the powerful Koopa King?" Kymek was shocked, all this time he was a minion of Bowser, the Evil King whose sole objective was to make the world his own. He did not know if he wanted to belong to such a clan. He valued freedom, and wanted more than anything to have fun. But would being a soldier of the army that wants to enslave the world really bring him these things?
Kymek made his decision. "Hm...I don't think I will join you just yet..." He said to Cory, without shaking his hand, "But I'll be watching you all. Perhaps helping you, perhaps hurting you."
Kymek made his decision. He mounted his broom and hovered up to gain altitude, then zoomed away again.

The light blue Yoshi ignored me... I crawled to my feet in the midst of a large crowd, none of which had seemed to notice me. "Well, Mr. Shapeshifter Pancake, I suppose we may be stuck with each other, for the time being." Better to keep him in my sight and make sure he didn't cause any more trouble... Champ landed neatly on the area where his feet should be directly in front of me. <That was fun! Let's do it again!> I plopped the pancake into a backpack I happened to be carrying, and walked over to the location I heard a voice from. "Mixed Worlds?" I wasn't sure if I heard it right, but it was worth taking a chance for. "That's me! Right here!" I pushed my way between a few Rougeportians to come into a group of a Magikoopa, three dragons, a hybrid between a Yoshi and a dragon, and two light blue Yoshis. I recognised one as the one I had landed upon.

I met up with the figure that called the Mixed Worlds team together; it was a green dragon named Cory. "Hello, Cory. My name's Enrique." I shook Cory's hand. "Nice to meet you." I looked around at my teammates. I hope to get along with them...
I stood around waiting for others to introduce themselves and Cory to give instructions. By the letter that was sent, the mission doesn't seem to be extremely difficult. But you never know with these things...

Steffan examined the outside of the crumbled church, seething with rage at the people of this plane's inability to keep even the most basic forms of their existence intact. He slowly, deliberately turns away and steps down the equally broken sidewalk; remembering the words of the Angel. He was to protect a figure, not punish the civilians for neglecting their beacon of hope.
He turns the first corner he can find, grateful to find buildings blocking his view of the temple. The light quickly faded as he made his way into an alley. Not letting that slow him down, he continued on a now brisk pace until he came upon a group of youths huddled together under what must be a fire-escape stairway.
"You there! Direct me to the location of Harold Sir immediately!” Steffan’s shout caught the attention of the figures, who immediately began laughing after they saw Steffan’s unique wardrobe. The largest one stood up and quickly calmed the others down. Steffan shifted his grip on his Sunforger.
“Tsssss. What’s it to you, poser?” The largest one spoke up.
Steffan lurched forward and gritted his teeth. “You dare speak to a Guildmage in such a manner?! I have been ordered by Razia herself to protect Harold Sir. Show me to him!” He tightened his grip on his Sunforger, which began glowing orange and was soon aflame.
Steffan had already decided what he was going to do by the time the group of youths had stopped laughing for a second time. The largest one broke from the group and stood alone to face Steffan. “I speak to whoever I want that way, punk, you best step or you gonna get hurt!” The larger youth jerked his right hand, revealing a switchblade with a Ka-click. The remaining youths cheered him on at the sight of the blade, who then got into a rudimentary fighting position. “You want a piece of me? Come and get it!”
Steffan mumbled archaic incantations to himself for a few moments, flashing red, then white. “Even the warriors of the Gruul fall before me. Justice is toothless without punishment.” Before Steffan’s opponent can react, he charges forward and brings the flaming Sunforger down on the youth’s head, heat from the weapons holy fire making the motion easy and fatal; there was almost no resistance as the head was melted, then crushed in a single stroke.
As their leader’s body tumbled to the ground, the remaining three yelped in unison and scrambled to escape. Steffan grinned and sprinted after them. “Don’t run! Don’t run! Your judgment is at hand!” He immediately threw the flaming Sunforger, which became completely engulfed in flames that grew more intense, at the nearest fleeing youth. The unfortunate target barely had time to register being struck before the weapon punctured through his body and engulfed him in flames.
The remaining two split up as more paths became available, one diving down the right alley and another leaping down the left. Steffan slowed down just enough to pick up his now cool and flameless Sunforger, stopping at the intersection, shouting “You will never be able to escape judgment forever! You will pay for your wickedness, and I will make it happen!”

Atticus grumbled at the random shouting and such that was going on, what a great job they were doing of protecting Harold Sir! None of them even knew where the man was! He grumbled, and turned off the path, calling back to Jay, "You, stay here with these others, make sure they stay here!", he had smelled flame, and burning flesh, and was rather curious...
Rounding a corner, he encountered a frantic running little punk, and narrowed his eyes, drawing his rapier, "I recognize you...You attemped to rob me before, and got away, did you not?"
"Oh, man, oh man, oh man pleaaase!!", the kid cried and fell onto his knees, clasping his hands in a praying motion, "Some psycho with a flamin' hammer's after me! Don't kill me man!!"
"...Pathetic.", he said, and drew the Reiterpallasch, swinging the blade in one motion with the unsheathing, then stod again, and walked off towards the source of the smell. The boy gave one more gasp, then fell over, his head toppling from his shoulders.
Rounding the corner, coming to an intersection, he sheathed his blade, noticing the man with the hammer, shouting, "...It might be best to be quiet, you'll only draw more of the wretched little urchins, you know... I assume you're here to help Harold Sir?" one thin blonde eyebrow went up, it wasn't often he saw someone dressed as oddly as he was.

Weehee...now all I have to do is wait in this backpack until something happens! Enough of being a baked goody... I turned into a pile of pink jello and sagged at the bottom of the sack, feeling some items becoming ever so slightly absorbed into me, but I looked at them in case I would need to become them and practised. It was fun to become something new, but it was also fun to look at new places. I turned into a periscope and peered out of the back of the bag, looking around Rogueport (which I learned was the town from a message in the bag). There were dragons, and more dino's! I took in what the dragons looked like for future transformations. Some of these guys looked powerful!! I could tell one just wanted to blow something up...
I shrunk back into a gooey pink blob and waited, pulling on a map and reading what was on it for futur reference.
