"Well, you and Destanius are basically going to be caged up and handed over as gifts. Once he puts you somewhere inside the castle, you two can break out and take the castle while we stall the leaders."

"Alrighty then. That sounds unrealistically dangerous but then again, I've seen pigs fly, so screw logic." He paused. "I'll be wearing clothed, right?"
-
"Destanius is, so I don't see why not. The king might find it a bit odd, now that I think about it, but the alternative is much more odd. For us at least."
-
"I could turn into something less awkward? That something being a werefox, basically a werewolf, but slimmer and smaller, and less frightening."
-
"That could work. It doesn't matter what you are as long as it is exotic looking."
-
"Would a large white fox standing on two legs look exotic?"
-
"In this place, definitely."
-
"Cool. When're we doing this?"
-
"Like right now. I have everything set up."
-
"Fast planning. Anyway, where do I need to go?"
-
"That cage over there. Don't worry, it is quite comfortable. There is a hidden button on the inside that will open the door. If for some reason the door doesn't open, the metal is quite malleable and you should be able to bend an opening in the cage."
-
"Sounds reasonable." he said, walking over to the cage. As he walked, his form changed, becoming larger and his back had a slight hunch. Whatever clothes he wore tore and fell off. He was eventually walking on all fours, hopping up into the cage, closing the door before curling up into a huge ball of fur.
-
"Ok, let's go people!" [b]Destanius walked into the other cage, which closed behind him. Five soldiers, two of which were carrying the cages, entered the castle. A receptionist stoped them.[/b] "What is your business here?" "We are from the neighboring planet and would like to speak to your king. Is he open?" [b]Fortis asked, using a ridiculous accent that sounded a bit Italian.[/b] "Take that elevator to the top floor. His room is through the large doors exactly in front of the elevator." [b]The receptionist said before getting back to looking at her computer. Fortis and his group went into the elevator. Within five seconds, they were at the top.[/b] "I just realized something, this guy might not be the guy we are looking for. If it isn't, we have to destroy this city. No questions asked, ok?"
-
"I do not agree with that, thus I will not partake in slaughtering people merely because we're not in the right place." He grumbled.
-
"Look, if these people were innocent, then I would have a different plan. But when we got here, before wee even reached the city, we were attacked. The receptionist had a shotgun hidden under the table. And every civilian I have seen had some sort of gun on them. Trust me, I have been in situations like this. Once you kill the evil leader, the citizens won't stop until one side looses.
-
"So this is like a Skyrim situation where everyone will try to kill us? Fun. But i wont kill unless I have to. And from how you described this, than I might have to.."
-
"Did you expect this to be easy?"
-
"No, not really, but I didn't sign up for mass killing." he said, shrugging. "This is a very long elevator ride..."
-
[spoiler]They are out of the elevator standing outside of the room...[/spoiler] "Listen, I understand that you think it is wrong, but these people are not... them. They are being controlled. Here, I will show you. I just have to find a guard... there is one right now." [b]Fortis walks over to a guard and, with a single blow, cracks his torso in half. He then cuts open the corpse down the middle and rummages around for a while before pulling out a large metal device hidden in the man's chest cavity.[/b] "This was controlling the man. I will bet you that everyone here has one of these in them."
-
Quincy blinks, his eyebrow up high. "That was highly disturbing...But ok, i get your point...Can we hurry things up before I get hungry? Im more...aggressive..when im like this.."
-
"Ok, let's do this." [b]Fortis walks into the room. Seated in a large throne is a pitch black Mechonus with piercing yellow eyes. Wisps of some sort of smoke drifted off of him, and his sword was a black as the night.[/b] "That isn't good..." [b]Fortis said.[/b] "Greetings, uh, what is your name?" [b]The king asks.[/b] "I am Trajan of the Yilemites! I have come bearing gifts, and I hope to negotiate an alliance between our two empires." [b]Fortis says, putting on the strange accent again.[/b] "Very nice. Guards! Take these gifts to the corresponding chamber." [b]The guards started hauling Q and Destanius out of the room and down a ramp. They opened a pair of steel doors and dropped the cages off. Inside was a pure white room, lit with soft light. There were various other cages around the room, some empty and some full. Destanius opened the door of his cage and walked out.[/b] "You good?"
-
I nod, nudging the door open with my nose. "That was a little too easy, wouldn't you agree?"
-
"That was the easy part. Now, we have to actually take over the castle. But before we go, I have to tell you something. Don't trust Fortis."
-
"There a reason behind that or are you gonna leave it at that?" he asks, stepping out of the cage.
-
"Well, it is a very long story. Let me put it simply, you know those guys attacking the dojo? Their main power is corrupting and controlling the minds of their enemies. I have reason believe that Fortis is either in league with them or is under their influence."
-
"What makes you think that?" he asks, now curious to hear what he has to say.
