*All three of you see a man simply sitting on a bench outside the Dojo gates. He is rather thin and 5'10. He appears to be sleeping until he opens up one crimson eye. His other eye follows and he looks at the three of you*
Hey guys. You guys new?

[b][i]The two spirits blink as they disappear back inside Vanders body. With a sigh he scratches he back of his head smiling. [/i][/b] "Yeah we are forgive them they are shy today it seems." [b][i]Walking over to the bench he sits down looking at the man with his blue eyes. He stood at roughly the same height as the man as he looked over. A new person leaving his body, a female once more but this time she had long flowing green hair and green eyes. Her smile showing as she waves to the man.[/i][/b] "Oh hey Sylvia don't mind her she doesn't talk much but is super friendly."
-
Ah, nice to meet you guys. I'm Mortar. That's impressive, how do those spirits stay in you? Most I can do is make shadow clones of myself
-
[b][i]Sylvia lays her head on his shoulder and hugs him as he blushes looking at her. With a shrug he smiles back to the man as he thinks.[/i][/b] "I have ancient blood or something. Basically my old clans job before everything got super advanced was to be able to store and harness the power of spirits. Although my clan was a lot more mean to them than I am maybe that's why they stick around?"
-
Ahh, okay. That's intriguing. I've heard of stray spirits, those who have been able to... Escape the Underworld, but I don't think I've met a guy who can harness them. Had your clan been working with the Underworld both of them would've benefitted.

[b][i]He shrugs as the girl beside him blinks looking a bit protective as the wind slowly picks up. Gently he flicked her nose and the wind stopped.[/i][/b] "Hey he was just pointing out an idea. Nah these spirits aren't from the underworld. Although we might have benefitted I'm curious how that would work." [b][i]He shook his head as he looked at her the girl seeming to hover as she sat in the air beside him.[/i][/b] "All of these spirits were trapped inside a curse by demon. Well all except Sylvia she saved my life. In turn I helped save her friends lives and here we are."
-
Ah, okay. And I'm sorry if I sounded threatening Sylvia, I'm not with them anymore. Haven't been for the past fifty or so years. Though I still get the perks. *As he says this a shadowy figure forms from the ground, leaning up against the dojo wall*

[b][i]Sylvia looked at the shadow as her eyes grew wide now seeming to hide behind Vander. Placing his hand on her head he looked at her as she spoke in a quiet voice.[/i][/b] "It's not....right..?" "No Sylvia it's not him...you are okay.." [b][i]He turns back to the man in front of him as he whispers in his ear. Not wanting to say it to loud.[/i][/b] "She was caged in the underworld since birth. She got out a decent amount of time after but it scares her as she doesn't want to go back. Not your fault you didn't know."
-
Oh... Okay. I'm sorry about that... Maybe you're talking about my father, the king of the Royal Underworld. He really is an evil guy, I'm really sorry.

[i][b]She looks at him noticing the sadness in her eyes as she shakes her head. Walking over she gives him a quick hug.[/b][/i] "Don't worry...it's not your family...but I appreciate you trying to fix it..." [b][i]She smiles as she walks back to Vander giving a wave to the shadow. Vanders eyebrow raising as he looks at her scratching the back of his head.[/i][/b] "Uh...that's new she doesn't really talk to anyone but me not even the other spirits...so I think you are forgiven."
-
That's intriguing, Thank you Sylvia. *He nods and smiles as the shadow nods and dissipates*
-
[b][i]Sylvia smiles as she faded re-entering Vanders body as he sits down and leans back on the bench.[/i][/b] "So why are you here by chance?"
-
I've been wanting to visit interesting places after my reputation mellowed out... My religion isn't well known, but I've done some... Things... in my past
-
[b][i]He nods as he looks up into the sky closing his eyes. A sigh as he shakes his head looking down.[/i][/b] "My clan summoned a demon and got these spirits trapped so we aren't much liked either....these four spirits are the only ones out of thousands who enjoy me being alive even..."

Wow. Sounds like me, I am a demon slash Ex God slash war beast
