Arcane Rivalry [J] [Pw]

[SirBlaziken]

((Now to make this interesting.))

I feel as if someone is breathing down my neck. I hear noises in the distance. Someone's there, I know it. I allow my hands to start glowing, and hold them up without turning around.

//Heh, I was right.//

"And you are?" I say, turning around, revealing the stalker.

[Wolstenholme]

I spin around. I had sensed a presence but I'd thought it was just someone coming out of the restaurant. I grunt in surprise, a boy a few years older than myself stands before us, he is tall and muscular, wearing glasses and plain but tatty clothes. He has a rogue, "devil may care" look. 'Hellooooooooooooooooo!' my brain screams but I push the words away. This boy is a potentially dangerous stranger.

[SirBlaziken]

Flames start to dance on my palms. "Explain yourself please or bad things will start to happen to you. You're lucky that I've remembered my manners in the case." I say lucidly. "Also, I'm not the most dangerous of us, so I'd recommend that you start talking."

[Moon Chaser]

"Woah," He stepped back a bit. As interesting as it would be, the last thing he wanted was a fight. "I'm just bored. It's nothing to be worried about."

[SirBlaziken]

((You know, first person is fine))

"You still didn't answer me, I'd suggest you'd start talking. NOW!" I say in a more assertive voice assertive, gaze remaining on the stranger and palms blazing wildly.

[Wolstenholme]

"Edan!" i whisper, alarmed. "Cool down, I think he is telling the truth." The truth was that I had checked him for the signs of a liar, and he carried none of them, he could have just been very good at hiding it but his mind did not have the feel of a biomancer. His defenses were there, but easy to overcome... I survey the scene.

[SirBlaziken]

I put out the fire but hold my position. "Answer me, now." I said, a bit calmer.

[Moon Chaser]

((I prefer writing in third))

Matt chuckles. "Someone seems to have a bit of an anger problem," he says, jokingly. "I'm not lying. I'm bored and was going to pull a harmless prank, which is now kinda pointless."

[SirBlaziken]

"No, I just don't like people following me, you're the third today and the second one almost killed me. So now you know why." I said, calming down. "Now, tell me who are you?"

[quack98]

"Edan. Drop it. He's not going to give you answers in a tone like that." I say sharply. I extend my hand to Matt. "I'm Nikolai, and whilst I don't like being followed, I assume you have a reason?" I say, half stating, half asking.

[Moon Chaser]

"As I said, I was bored. You lot looked pretty interesting and considering he said someone almost killed him, I guess I was right. I'm Matt," he says shaking Nikolai's hand.

[Wolstenholme]

"Chloe." I say proffering my own hand for Matt to shake. He seems nice enough but it is Soifra's opinion on him I wait for...

[MzLuluZombi]

"As far as I can tell, he speaks the truth," I pipe up with a chuckle.  "I can't read much, but I know he's a strong one at telekinesis."

// How strong is the question. //

I shake my head and lightly tap Nikolai on the shoulder.  "I doubt he wishes to antagonise four capable warlocks.  I advise that we leave him be and continue moving.  He persists, we kill him."  I look at the newcomer and smirk.  "I doubt he'll want that.  Unless you wish to form more alliances?"

[Moon Chaser]

"Wow, you'd really kill me for following you? I must have stumbled onto something really interesting then." He looks around at different objects he could move with telekinesis. It was better safe than sorry and after all she did have a point. If anything went wrong, he was outnumbered. "So what are you lot up to?"

[quack98]

"I have no objection if he wishes to join us. Although, I'd want proof of his loyalty" I say to Siofra. "Nothing much." I say evasively to Matt
