"It's Tigertallon's four members!!!" Gwen shouted. She made a gun appear in her hands and aimed it at one of them.

"Don't get to hasty now," one said. They were still in the forest so we could only see their silhouettes.

"If you can get to the center of the forest," another said, "we'll see you there." They disappeared back into the forest and left all of us staring at the forest.

"NOW I REALLY WANT TO KICK SOME BUTT!!!!!!!!!!" Yuki shouted, staring at the forest. He took a step forward but Yui grabbed the back of his shirt. He spun around and I caught a glimpse of something sparkling around his neck. I blinked, but it was gone.

"We have to make a plan," Pan said cautiously. "I think we should send teams. I think Silver, River and Gwen as Team A, Yuki and Yu, Shu and Ruby as Team B, Hayato, Haru and Haku as Team C, Yui, Shizuku and Ayato as Team D, and finally Ami, Levi, Yukio and I will be the support team. Any objections?"

"Yes," Ayato said. "Are you sure I can battle with you? This is your mission to carry out."

"The more help we can get the better," Yui said smiling at him. "You can stay if you want."

"Who made you boss?" Yuki asked. Yui glared at him.

"Wanna challenge me?" she asked and Yuki ran over to me.

"She's gonna kill me!!" he shouted. We all laughed and Pan got our attention back to her.

"Yui is the one in charge," she said. "Do you have any objections with the plan?" Yui shook her head and smiled.

"I like how you chose people from different guilds for the groups," she said, looking at everyone. "I hope you'll all give it your all out there."

"Here," Gwen gave each group a small pistol and gave us three different colored bullets. "Green means the enemy or one of the enemy was defeated. Red for badly injured and can't get back here. Blue for injured and coming back here."

"Good thinking, Gwen," Yui said as Gwen, Shu, Hayato, Yui and Pan put the pistols safely away in their bags. "The side of this cliff with be our base of operations. This is also where the support team will be if need be."

"Aye!" Yu said, putting his paw into a salute.

"Don't forget the one important thing," Yui said. "We're in this together." We all put our fist in the air, shouting with agreement. As Team A, B, C, D and E went off into the woods, Pan, Ami, Levi and Yukio started putting a hospital tent up.

Meanwhile, Team B, Yuki, Yu, Shu and I, walked straight for the middle of the thick forest. The hazy black fog didn't help with that as we trek through the undergrowth. I looked around, all five senses alert. My hand was near my keys, ready for any battle. Just then I noticed something sharp and shinny on the ground near the base of a huge oak tree. There was a bunch of brush around it that hid the rest of the object. I pushed some bushes away and saw a two foot long sword. Not a magic sword, but an actual fighting sword. It had three rubies in the hilt and a diamond shape at the ends of the hilt and the bottom of the handle. The handle was covered in white cloth and the blade gave off a shinny silvery glow.

"Whoa," Yuki exclaimed. "Nice sword. I wonder who it belongs to." My gut told me to take it with me, but I didn't.

"Are you going to take it or not?" Shu asked. I looked at him.

"Why would I?" I asked. "It belongs to someone else."

"I don't think he'd mind," Yuki said looking beyond the tree. I stood and looked at the spot Yuki was looking. My eyes got wide as I saw a teenage boy a little younger than us lying on the ground. I gasped and covered my mouth.

"What happened to him?" I asked. Yu flew over and looked at the boy.

"Looks like he's just unconscious," he said. "Let's take him back to camp."

"What?!" I asked. "We can't take a stranger back to camp!!"

"Look there!" Yuki said, crouching over the person. There was a rip in his shirt and you could see a Lamia Scale guild mark on his left arm.

"Lamia Scale?" I asked as the three of us looked at it. "I though they couldn't come."

"What's he doing here?" Shu asked, glaring at the guys pale face. His chestnut brown hair was covering his eyes. He was wearing a normal shirt with pants with a few rips here and there. He had no cuts, but had a few scratches. He had a sheath around his waist and we found that sheath was home to the sword.

"You know him?" I asked.

"Now I recognized him!" Yuki said. "He's one Blue Pegasus's top members. I saw him a lot at the Grand Magic Games."

"Really?" I asked. "That's amazing."

"I saw him on the same train I saw you on," Shu explained. "He got off at your stop, actually. I think he said his name was Ali Ren." Just then the boy groaned, but didn't get up.

"Let's bring him back," I sighed. "We can't just leave him out here. We need to bring him back so Pan can heal him."

"Aye!" Yu said, grabbing the back of his shirt. He flew back towards camp and we followed at a running speed. We made it back a few minutes later. Levi was on guard duty, looking around the place.

"Yo," he said. "Who's that guy?"

"His name is Ali Ren," Shu said. "He uses Sword Magic and is known for his one handed swordsmanship skills he created. He just started getting entered into Sorcerer Weekly Magazines, too."

"What's going on out here?" Pan asked coming out from a tent connected to the cliff. She saw Ali and rushed over. "Who is he?" she asked in a frantic. "Where did you find him? How was he cast unconscious? Is he a wizard?"

"Calm down!" Shu said. "His name is Ali Ren. He's one of Lamia Scale's most powerful and we just found him unconscious."

"Bring him inside," Pan said and we went to the tent. Levi stayed outside to keep guard. We went inside to see three tables of medicine, medical tools, bandages, etc. ready for any type of emergency. The cliff had a small dugout area where 14 cots were set up. We set Ali down on the one farthest to the right while Pan got a examining tool off a table. She put it on and scanned his body.

"So?" Yuki asked. "How is he?"

"There's a poison inside him," Pan said, stopping at his chest. "Looks like it was a poison that kills the target within a week. It's also a poison that makes the target unconscious and you can't see the pain they're in on the outside. It's treatable, though. Good thing I brought every medicine all the guilds had combined." She took the examine tool and put it back on the table, grabbing something else. It was a small jar full of clear liquid. "This will heal him," she said, taking a spoon and feeding it to him. "He'll wake up within 6-8 hours."

"We have to get back out there," Shu said. "Can you watch him?" Pan nodded and we walked out of the tent. Ami and Yukio were walking out of the forest with baskets full of herbs.

"Why'd you come back?" Yukio asked.

"We found a Lamia Scale member," Yuki said. "Go and Pan will fill you in with the details. We have to get to the center of the forest."

"It's around noon," Ami said. "Don't forget to signal if anything-" Just they we heard multiple gunshots. We looked up and saw something horrifying.

A line of blue smoke coming up from three different directions.

All of our other teams were in trouble.
