The Phoenix Three

[The Blade]

A silver burst lit up the sky above the City of Lus as a small portal opened up, the amount of sparkles radiating from it would seem rather ridiculous but then again, Empty did like to make a rather bright impression upon others. Said Phoenix came firing out of the portal with a stream of bright silver and black flowing behind him and he angled towards the planet, a determined look set into his eyes.

He flew down to the surface of the planet, a strange shell that covered most of the surface, his massive silver wings forming a shadow on the ground before he leaned down and pecked the solid earth a few times to get the attention of any living beings inside. The pecks were heavy and slightly magically enforced to make sure that they would be heard and not ignored. The silver Phoenix then looked back and waited for Auri and Blackout to arrive, although only the Phoenix would be able to come down into the inner citie. with him.

Auri flew down into the Planet's atmosphere, sending out bright freen waves of color before landing next to Empty. Aurorae were seen wherever blackout was, forming glittering waves of purple and green. Auri folded her wings neatly and asked"So what's the plan?"

[Admiral Regis Hermitage]

A sign in the shape of a kitten came up from the shell. "Friend or Foe?" it asked.,

[Ghost]

Auri glanced at the kitten thing"Friend. We're here for exploration. No harm meant to be created." It felt awkward to address something, but that must be normal here.

Just as Relle was about to sit down to share in the 'feast' that Cheshire had managed to dig up with great difficulty, along with Rev and Gen who stared at her every minute, still perplexed by the notion of eating even years later; she sensed the magic signatures of incoming Phoenixes. Immediately spinning around, she looked around her for the source, and then slowly her eyes were drawn to the direction that the signature was coming from. Could it really be? The magic signature of a Phoenix Sage? Relle was surprised as she by now without meeting in, she had thought she was the only one.

"There's another Phoenix Sage here!" The girl exclaimed, promptly pointing in the direction, "There! Just outside this planet. Two of them! I'm sure of it."

"A Phoenix Sage?" Rev looked thoughtful, as Gen closed her eyes and added with a smile,

"Phoenix Sage, an avian sub-race known as Sages of the Sage dimension. In their true form they're large raptor-like birds while in their chosen form they look like the common form of everyone else in this dimension. Known for their fire, reincarnation, healing, powerful magic, and true form the most!"

"I KNOW THAT Gen!" Rev stuck his tongue out as he exclaimed, "I was just trying to remember." Then as if to prove his knowledge, Rev continued where Gen left off in an attempt to look more knowledgeable, "In their true form they can be as giant as they want or as small as they want. At one time, they were a kingdom that was known amongst most of the Sages. But then the kingdom fell and the race was thought to be extinct with the widely known family known as the Sage Three as the remainder. But then we met that one guy recently, who was also one! SEE!"

"I see, I see," Gen giggled before grinning, "But don't forget Miss Relle there, she's one too!" Gen pointed over to Relle who simply looked dumbfounded, with her mouth hanging open in surprise before she realized it and quickly thought of something to say.

 "W-w-wow how did you know all that?" She blinked, "I didn't think many people knew about us, much less children."

"We learned a lot." Gen grinned, "The Archive taught us, and Archon taught us,"

"And also the Relorians!" Rev quickly concluded. "Then we found out more through this place and its archives!"

"I-I-see..." Relle continued to just blink in shock, "In any case! If they are Phoenix Sages, that means there's more of us! Can they come in?"

"OF COURSE! MORE PEOPLE!" Rev and Gen both jumped in excitement before looking to AMI and nodding to Relle's request at allowing the new Sages in.

Meanwhile as the sharing of information was going around between Relle, Rev, and Gen, Cheshire continued to stare at them all, her head tilted in a very thoughtful manner as she took in everything being said. Of course, being an AI, she already had access to all of this information as the kids had saved it, but one word registered to her through the entire conversation, 'avian.'  Or put simply, bird.

[Ghost]

Auri waited. And waited.... And waited........Aaaaand waited.... "The security system here sucks..."she said before a note of some sort appeared in from of her face. She looked at it and opened the note. "Oooh a masquerade? I always wanted to go to one! Empty! Will you come with me to this dance? It sounds like fun! Oh please can we go? Please please please please please!!!" She looked at him thoughtfully.

[The Blade]

Empty waited as well, his avian face looking almost pensive as he sat there and just thought over what he was doing, why he was doing it and who he was with. Another Phoenix, who would've ever thought? He shook his head, silver feathers flicking out slightly but realigning themselves. When he looked up though, a note appeared in front of his eyes and he grabbed it with a slight wing.

His bird eyes shot over the writing and he took it in before snapping his head around to Auri, who had apparently read over it already. "Well Auri, if you so wish to go to the Masquerade then I shall join you." Empty turned and flapped his wings a few time. "I must warn you however, I am not very good at dancing"

[Ghost]

"That's fine. I never had an opportunity to dance before"Auri replies and stretches her wings to fly off, away from the planet."Youcoming or not?"She calls down to him, eyes flashing signs of happiness and excitement.

[The Blade]

The silver Phoenix mulled the idea over for a moment before taking flight up next to Auri and nodding slightly. "After you Auri, ladies first after all" He gave a slight bow, his wing sweeping under his chest and coming extremely close to swiping Auri but only the very edge feathers would brush along her beak.

[Ghost]

Blackout looked at the two as their neared. "So what's goin on Love birds?"She asked. Auri"No one's home so we're going to a masquerade"

Blackout looked at them"Shame /i can't go to babysit you two. You know where I'll be. So let's go!" Auri nodded and looked at Empty Sky"Ready?"

[The Blade]

Empty Sky payed the Space Dragon almost no attention apart from a slight glare as he flew up to them and sat hovering. "Well then, I suggest you all follow me." He whispered and turned to empty space before rocketing forwards with a long trail of silver and black sparkles flowing out behind him.

After a few seconds of flying, the sparkles increased in intensity and with a massive silver flash, Empty disappeared and in his place there sat a large, white portal in the middle of space. The portal was set to close after two living beings flew through it, aka, Blackout and Auri.

[Ghost]

Auri and Blackout flew through le portal.
