D-rank: Escort the Entrepeneur! The incredibly snooty Lord Samule!

A man in highly clean bright white suit, wearing a pair of bejewled cufflinks, a completely white fedora, a black tuxedo jacke hanging on his shoulders, a pair of sensible buissness shoes, was clutching at his hawk head engraved cane in impatience. He was rather broad man, looking much more like a body builder than a buissness man, and hand a thin goatee on his rather upstuck expression, with a ridiculously long beak shaped nose and with his eyes appearing to be closed, while his jet black hair was tied back into a short pony tail. This man was Lord Touscoon Samule, head of the largest chain of restraunts in all of Fiore, and was to be a quest speaker at the Love and Lucky guild, and was a very busy man who did not like to wait. Ever. He looked around nonchantly for a few seconds before sighing in his plummy voice and mumbling to himself; "Where on earth is that mage? I have been here for at least five seconds, and that could have earned me an extra few jewels. I suppose time is of little essence to such shallow mage of Blue Pegasus."

Sense Joseph Wing was from Acalypha town he knew the way quite well. Upon arrival Joseph Saw the broad man in the Bright White suit. Walking up to the man Joseph extend a friendly handshake.
"Lord Touscoon Samule I presume? I'm Joseph Wing From Blue Pegasus I Will be escorting you today."

Joseph bowed his head politically. "Sorry about being late The coach wasnt as fast as i anticipated."

Lord Samuel didn't even attempt to shake the mans hand, but nodded in approval as he bowed in respect at him for his minor lateness. He dusted off some invisible specks from his shoulder before raising his nose to an almost vertical level before replying; "Good to see mages have some manners, I suppose they aren't all uncouth hooligans. Get on your feet already, your here to escort me to that ghastly guild after all." He then turned around and began walking in what he believed was the right direction to the merchant guild, adding with a casual wave of the hand, "Do please try to make sure not to get any dirt on my suit if it turns out someone is foolish enough to attempt to strike me."

Joseph let out a small frown seeing his handshake was refused. Joseph Didnt want to argue with the mage about mages he was working now and if he wanted to keep the job he would have to bite his tongue for now.

Answering Samuel's Request Joseph Wing Nodded and Said "Yes Sir I'll protect you and your suit from any harm."

Joseph Walked with Lord Samuel And Decided to use his only spell.

"Snake Eyes!" Joseph''s Eyes Transformed into Snake Eyes. He could see things from far away and see Heat signatures.
Scanning their Surrounding's Joseph placed his Hand's near his Katana's. He would be ready for an attack.

"Good, good! Otherwise you may be looking at a reward reduction! I can not, will not let those Love and Lucky guildsters the satifaction of catching me with a dirty suit!", Lord Samule growled, with obvious contempt to the Love and Lucky guild. "I hope you are adequette in your combat skills as your are in your manners, mage. Bandits are such unsightly hooligans and I would gag at their horrid stench!", he added continuing to gain ground to Love and Lucky.

Meanwhile a few miles away, a pair of filthy looking individuals are squatting in the bushes, doing their best to keep quite. "So this Toucan bloke is pretty rich yeah? So we just need to nab him and then leave a note, and we'll get the cash easy!", one of them said to the other. "This plan of yours is fool proof Gary! Some suited twit ain't no match for us and thats sure!", Gary said before his acomlace shushed him and whispered; "Keep it down, we don't want him to catch us out! Besides, I heard that a dark mage was getting the same idea! Though heard he's a bloomin pansy though." Gary frowned before apoligising; "Right Harry, sorry Harry."

Joseph Wing's Responded
"I will rather die then let damn bandit's get the best of me... Damn I think I see two of them now! Bastards hiding in bushes. Lord Samuel please stand behind me. Theres a Chance I could be wrong but im not takeiung that chance."

Joseph could see two heat signatures within the bushes ahead. Joseph couldn't hear them speak from that distance but knew they should probably avoid them all together.

Drawing both his Katana's Joseph dint want to lead Lord Samuel off the road theres a chance he could get his suit dirty.

By the time they where within 25 feet of the bushes Joseph rushed ahead with his Katana's draw He Did a Jump kick at the man hideing in the closet bush to him. Hopeing to catch the man off guard.
He'd ask questions later.

Lord Samule sniffed at Joseph arrogantly before replying; "Do not order me around mage! Just do your job!", but stopped walking nonetheless. He didn't need to wait too much though as the jump kick easily sent Harry tumbling backwards and knocking himself unconcious on a nearby tree, while Gary raised his hands while quivering in fear, managing to wimper; "P-p-p-p-please! I d-d-d-don't wanna die!", before breaking into cowardly sobbing. Lord Samule merely carried on walking, greatly unphased by the whole situation, holding his nose up almost verticaly once more. "Hurry up mage! If we linger we may be infected by these ghastly fools! We have little time for you to dawddle!"

Joseph Pointed one of his Katana's at Gary.
"Why where you hiding in the bushes? Were your trying to ambush us? "
Joseph wanted to question the man but was being rushed by Lord Samule.

"There's no helping it... Come with us and tell me everything you know. As soon as i'm satisfied with the information I will let you go."

Joseph intended to have Gary walk in front of him while he unraveled his plans. This would give him a better prospective on what awaited him and Lord Samule.

"I Apoligise Lord Samule I will not keep you waiting any longer."

Samule sniffed in disapproval of the bandit being brought along, commenting; "Ugh! Such a fiflthy and comon criminal! Brain far too small, and not much in the muscle depart either! Discard this man as soon as possible will you?", ending his casual order with a casual wave of the hand, which left Gary shaking in fear all the more. "I-i-i-i-i'm sor-r-r-rry! We were j-j-j-j-ust hoping on nabbing S-s-s-samule for a tidy randsom! We had no idea he had anyone protecting him! We weren't gonna hurt him much, just enough to tie him up!", the bandit babbled; "We though we should hurry it quick because we heard a dark mage was having the same idea too, though he supposed to be a big pansy!" He then looked at Joseph sniffing back the tears and asking with puppy dog eyes; "Can I go now?", which was answered with a swift whack to the head with Lord Samules cane who merely replyed; "Gutter filth.", and carrying on with his stroll past the man.

Joseph nodded at Gary. Ignoring Samuels Violence.
"Just what I wanted to hear... Your free to go."
Joseph moved Quickly to catch up with Lord Samule.
"Sorry About that Lord Samule I just needed a few tidbits of information."

Joseph Sheathed his Katana's. As he carried on ahead with Lord Samule. With heavy thought's raceing across his mind. A ("Dark Mage is coming.... I have a feeling hes not quite the pansy those bandit's make him out to be... I Better stay on guard.")

Still useing his snake eyes Joseph scanned far ahead searching for heat signatures.

Gary the bandit imedietly fled as soon as Joseph let him, running away in blind fear and dragging his brother away with him. Lord Samule sniffed in disgust at the bandit, arrogantly complaining; "Worthless bandits. Why would you even converse with them mage? Simply disgusting. I suppose you should sort out this dark mage buissness. Attend to it swiftly mage. You need to make yourself efficent for your jewels." Little did the entrepeneure know that the dark mage was coming down the same pathway towards them. His name was Percy. He wore a pink leotard with some green tights, hand long wavy hair hled back by a red headband, and wore rainbow coloured sweatbands and leg warmers, and was skipping towards them merrily. "Oh this is just super! Soon I shall be bumping righ tinto this Touscoon guy! I bet I'll get oodles of jewels for his randsom! I suppose even more if I send a toe or two!", he said aloud happily to himself in a sing song voice.

Joseph Wing could see Percy walking down the road towards them with his snake eyes. Joseph snorted out with laughter seeing his getup as he drew both his Katana's. "Lord Samule it's seems its time to prove myself. I Dare say the Dark Mage is comming towards us as we speak."

Joseph assume normal people didnt go wondering around in such clothing and after hearing the Mark mage was a pansey this had almost confirmed it. However Joseph couldnt be 100% sure theres always a chance he could be wrong but no way in hell would he risk that chance.

"I'm gonna run ahead to take care of him. Hopefully this will be over soon."
Joseph jogged ahead to Percy. He didnt want to run and tier himself out. As he approched Joseph was extreamly nervas. This was his first mission and all he had to attack with are these stupid swords.

"Hey there!" Joseph still clutched his Katana's approching the man.
""I'm sorry but i'm going to have to ask you to take another path. If you do not comply I will have to do way with you and I would perfer that there would be no bloodshed."

Joseph laughed at himself in his mind. ("WHo knows maybe This isnt the guy and hell just walk another path.")
Joseph's Snake Eyes carfully watched Percy.

As Percy skipped along, he saw his target coming into sight, though unfortunetly, Mr. Toucoon Samule was with someone, to which Percy frowned and stopped his prancing, reverting back to a normal walk. "Oh dearie this simply won't do. Not fabulous at all.", he said to himself rather sadly. Samule was also fairly disheartened, sighing deeply beforemanaging to order wearily; "Attend to him will you? We simply dont have time for halfwits with awful taste." Little did the richman know, Percy had impeciable hearing, nothing magical mind you, just very keen hearing, so Percy feinted innocence and continued to skip along until Joseph approached him. "Well honey, that would comprimise my workout, and that would just be utterly unfantabulous! So if you don't mind...", Percy blathered, before leaping back and doing an odd short dance where he punched the air a few times, wriggled his hips and did a few high kicks, while chanting; "Dance of weakening!" He was performing a spell that weakened his opponents power if left long enough to fully cast it!

Joseph Wing frowned. "I warned you... You leave me no choice."

Joseph rushed at Percy with both his katana's.
With his left katana he made a horizontal slash at Percy's belly and
with his right Katana Joseph Slashes vertically at percy's right arm.

Joseph wouldn't have attacked so seriously if he didnt hear the Man mumbling a chant. He had no idea what kinda powers the man had but he couldn't afford to wait.

"Oooh don't get so stressed so easily honey! You'll get wrinkles!" Percy giggled as he leat back from Josephs dual katana attack, though not fast enough to avoid getting a rather nasty cut on his right arm to which he clutched in suprise. "This just unfantabulous! You'r actually good at fighting! Looks like I have to remedey that!", the unusual dark mage said as he cotinued with another dance, this include some ssliding to the side, balancing on one fott as he did a high kick backwards, a few plevic thrusts and ending with the splits, while reptively chanting; "Empowerment Dance!" He is now twice as strong as he was originally and attempting to kick joseph in the head!

Joseph Wing dropped to his knee's as Percy's powerful leg's blast over his head. At that moment Joseph quickly Pushed off the ground and thrusted both Katana's up attempting to skewer the leg Percy kicked with. If successful Joseph would twist the blades to overwhelm his opponent with pain.

"I will not fail this mission! I am a member of Blue Pegasus! And I will upon there honor!" Joseph was determined to Defeat Percy protect Lord Samule and to not give his guild a bad reputation.

As Joseph launched his next attack, Percy kicked away from the Blue Pegasus mage with his free foot, before taunting; "Ha! Blue Pegasus? Those posers dont have anytihng on my six years of dance academy honey! I'm going to but you up just fantabulosly!" He then charged at Joseph with a manical grin and then launched a spinning kick at him. Lord Samule on the other hand was greatly unphased by the confrontation and merely managed to slip past the two and carried on walking, testily turning back and barking; "Finish this mockery of a mage already! If you don't hurry up I'llleave you behind! I am arriving punctually and that is that!", strutting away in a huff.

Joseph got very serious and shouted passionately "DOnt you ever mock my guild! your done for!"

Joseph had to think fast. Picking up a loose rock from the ground Joseph quickly tossed it as Percy's nut's to to stop his attack. If that didnt work he proceeded to make an X slash with both his katana's attempting to block the spinning kick and carve up his leg.. If none of his attacks went threw Joseph would be sent flying off of the road unto the dusty ground.

Percy continued to spint owards Joseph, cackling with glee as he easily kicked away the rock that was thrown at him and taunted; "Useless! Not Blue Pegasus member will ever get the better of me! And it's not because im still bitter about being thrown out for the guild!" Unfortunetly for Percy, he was easily taken out by Josephs X slash, being flung back with an x shaped cross on his chest, screaming a cry of agony and dfeat as he collapsed to the ground and then fainted in fright, frothing at the mouth. Percy was defeated!
Lord Samule had gained quite a bit of distance already, so it wasn't much of a suprise when he tunred round to holler at Joseph; "Hurry up mage! Were almost there! Thats enough frivollity for one day! Do you want to finish this job?", and then continued to walk.

Joseph Sighed in relief if that fight lasted any longer he probally would have lost. Sheathing his Kantana's. Pricking up his ear's he heard Lord Samule's hollor. Sucking it up Joseph sprinted towards Samule. Breathing hard from running after the hard fight Joseph caught up.

Breathing like a maniac from the long spring Joseph gasped. "Sorry Lord Samule.... Ive... Put ...and ....end to......The Dark mage...." After a few minutes Joseph regained his composure and scanned there surroundings. Even if he just defeated the Darkmage there could always be another eniemy laying in wait.

"Good, good, were right on schedule, the Love and Lucky guild is just up ahead. I dare say you may have earned your keep Joseph." Lord Samule said casualy, uisng the Blue Pegasus mage's name for the first time, as the closed in on the guild. They continued to walk to the guild until they finally reached it's door, where a man that was also dressed in a fine suit but of a much plumper build was there. "Ah good! Looks like the mage I hired for you was the right choice Toucoon! Good to see your here! And righ ton schedule too!", the stranger greeted happily, while Toucoon grumbled under his breath and pushed past the plump man, who frowned a bit before smiling again, this time at Joseph. "Thank you for looking after him, he wasn't too much trouble was he? My brother can tend to be a bit moody to be honest.", he whispered to Joseph, hoping Toucoon couldn't hear him.

Joseph Bowed in respect as Lord Samuel praised him. "Thank you Lord Samlue."
Then smiled at Toucoon Joseph lied as he whispered back.
"He was no trouble he was in fact a delight. Is there anything else you need me to do before I head out?"

Joseph wanted to make sure his mission was complete and he didn't mind helping out around the place if they needed it.

Touscoon's brother grinned warmly at Joseph as he handed him a purse filled with jewels and told him; "Don't worry, you filled the quota with aplomb, and really? He was no trouble at all? Good to hear he wasn't being..... difficult with you. Thank you once again good sir.", he finished with a flourish of the hand.

Thanking Touscoon's generosity Joseph Wing gladely accepted the bag of Jewles as he slowly headed back to Blue Pegasus.

"Waveing goodbye Joseph call out "Thanks again for the work!"
