Rosha Mission - Fire In the Inn
--------------------------------------
Ginger Complex: [ GM Post ]
Ginger Complex: --The Inn was pretty indecent by itself, it had a one
bedroom house and out there and above was another, it was there in the inn
that resided a small bar downstairs Down there would, of course, be where
the scene of the trouble
Ginger Complex: would of begun. There was a nice little outing there and it
allowed people to do what they wanted---drink, smoke---the lot of works. Of
course down there, there would be alcohol and with that sometimes came the
fixation of trouble
Ginger Complex: it usually would be one of the same. There was where our
story begins, we open up in the bar where there are a few fellows, each of
them drinking and having a good time Tomboy was on the piano and was
playing a good tune as the
Ginger Complex: woman below named Miss Betty had just finished her song.=d]
Ginger Complex: [ Miss Betty ] "Now Ya'll be tipping us all, hehe" -Came
the word of advice from the woman, buxom and blonde, she had herself a nice
little assets and in that pink corset, it made all the guys drive wild with
lust and jealousy
Ginger Complex: towards the other....as the woman bowed, she winked in
particular at two boys--Jeff and Frank, two brothers that never seemed to get
along. Betty loved teasing the two mule farmers and messing with them, so as
she did, she smiled- "
Ginger Complex: See you tonight, Frank." -Giggled and walked out-[d]
Ginger Complex: [ Jeff] "eY! What the hell was dat? Goin wit me girl?"
--Asked the drunken man...he hiccupped and frowned-
Ginger Complex: [ Frank.] "aYE AYe!" -Replied Frank, he had NO idea what
the world Betty meant, but he was so drunk, he just didn't give a damn.
Grinning towards his older brother [ by 5 minutes, since they were twins] the
man stood up.- "So mes
Ginger Complex: and betty gonna make grandkids!"[d]
Ginger Complex: [Jeff] "Grr!...How dare you talk about my womena!" -He
cried out and would lunge forth towards him now---the man moved forth in a
solid enchantment and attempted to tackle Frank towards the ground now! The
two of them would move
Ginger Complex: against each other as they hit the floor now.- "Shes' MAI
Gurl!"
Ginger Complex: [Frank] "No...lad shes MINE!" -And the two of them
struggled...both were strong mule farmers and each seemed to show off their
muscle and physique as each of them moved. it would of been an even match and
stronger than ever, if
Ginger Complex: they both weren't so drunk---all they did was roll against
each other and hit other tables now.
Ginger Complex: [ Tomboy] "Hey guys! Yous gonna start up some trouble!
Calm down and drink!" -He cried out---the bar had mostly emptied out when
Betty left---but it seemed that the rascal was doing nothing but making the
other patrons laugh
Ginger Complex: their asses off....it was in this that Tomboy [ whom was
small and weak] couldn't do nothing but shake his head. As he looked away, he
saw them struggling and rumbling towards one of the open barrels of alcohol.-
"Hey watch out you
Ginger Complex: two!"
Ginger Complex: [ GM ]
Ginger Complex: --Of course the two were not paying attention and the
brothers slammed into the weak structure of the barrel of ale---and the top
popped off. It would splatter them all with ale, the huge barrel falling
off the hinges and towards
Ginger Complex: the countertop now---with the barrel at least 3 x anyone's
sides, the people got the HELL out of dodge, and watched the barrel hit the
bar top---the end exploded and ale and alcohol went flying in every which
direction Some coated
Ginger Complex: the ends of the bar---some struck around the ends of people,
patrons and what not. It was in the struggles that part of the barrel had
flown off and struck an area in the back---where a bunch of lit lanterns
were. As they were
Ginger Complex: struck there came a shattering CRASH---as the fires inside
the candles struck the alcohol and as if set off like a match, a fire blazed
hot.-[d]
Ginger Complex: [ Tom Boy] -He watched the fire explode and cried out.-
"Oh GOD....get out now!!' -The fire was spreading fast, and he gasped as he
took off towards the exit, the other sane and somewhat sober compatriots would
move with the same
Ginger Complex: finesse towards the exit [ which wasn't covered, thankfully ]
and they would all head towards the outside There were only two people that
did not leave the bar that night---as the fires whipped around and covered
the exit---those
Ginger Complex: were the two struggling brothers ---who still fought for
control.-[d]
Ginger Complex: [ Jeff] "Oy!!" -Not even paying attention to the fires, the
screams from the people, all of them---the two of them continued to struggle
until at long last, his back hit something hot. Jeff screamed, pushed off
and realized they
Ginger Complex: were trapped inside an inferno of fire now.- "...Ahh
brother!"
Ginger Complex: [Frank] "Giving up huh? ---Oh bloody hell!" -He cried out
as he realized the planks had dropped below and now would of trapped them.
Looking at his brother now, the smoke inhalation got so great that there was
nothing too do but
Ginger Complex: cough and hack.- "...Dis de end?"-[d]
Ginger Complex: [ Jeff ] "....I suppose so.....Martha and Sylvia are
upstairs in the inn!" -The man knew them because they were their sister and
her child---each of them struggled, but another end of a powerful pin came
down and struck.- "Ouch!"-
Ginger Complex: [[ GM ]]
Ginger Complex: --And in all of its glory, there was nothing they could do
as the smoke inhalation went and took them over. The bar had been destroyed,
but with most of the patrons out [ having warned the people in the inn] there
began an evacuation
Ginger Complex: now before the fire went and rose out of hand People in
various rooms got out, worked together and managed to get themselves out of
there...each of them making sure that each of the rooms were locked and that
each people was
Ginger Complex: escorted out. It was only knowledgeable and logical that
one room might be forgotten---a room thought to of been checked by people, a
room where it might of been thought of to be empty....there was such logic in
that, right? That
Ginger Complex: is where we cue [ 20 minutes later] as the lower half of the
Inn is now engulfed in flames and towards the windows at the top was a
scream---an earth shouting scream that echoed all over the lands...a woman
appeared at the very top
Ginger Complex: window of the inn....with in her arms a 5 year old child,
crying and sobbing.- "HELP ME!!....HELP ME!!!"-[d]
Ginger Complex: [Habuki ] -Another night, another night....hunting had been
little visible, and as he left the district of darkness, he figured a tavern
would be the best place. Meet a drunken wench, drink some of his own, and go
on and about his
Ginger Complex: business....the boy was walking along the beaten path in the
darkness---but able to see [ Dark sight] whenever there was an explosive wave
of heat in the direction he was going! Eyes widened and the boy stared, in
utter amazement
Ginger Complex: now, as the local tavern and inn he was headed too was now
engulfed in flames now. The boy almost turned tail, except he heard
something---a powerful scream in the distance and he would sigh, and shake
his head.- "..mother..." -
Ginger Complex: And Habuki ran in that direction now-[d]
Ginger Complex: { GM ]
Ginger Complex: --As he neared he would see the entire lower half of the
building was now engulfed in flames and in the distance was nothing more than
the woman with her child...she seemed [ at best] beside herself and screaming
for help, the 5 year
Ginger Complex: old held in her arms to prevent smoke to get too it...the
baby was young, blonde haired and blue eyed and scared too death---the babies
cries echoed as the vampire came upon the scene, where a crowd of people
were, attempting to
Ginger Complex: find something too do...most of them had made a make shift
cloth to catch her in, but it was too soft and she couldn't jump that
far....there was no possible way. As they waited now, there seemed to be the
chief fire Marshall, beside
Ginger Complex: e himself and waiting....he saw the vampire and blinked.-
"...You---what're you doing here?!"-[d]
Ginger Complex: [Beetle Habuki] -He was called out cause he came upon the
scene now and looked at them- "...Hmph, I'm about too do more than just sit
here We have to help her." -He looked towards the fire Marshall now and
blinked a few times.-
Ginger Complex: "What're you guys waiting for?"
Ginger Complex: [ Fire Marshall] We are waiting on the Mages, but I don't
think the WWA will get here in time..." -The fires were too extensive, and
the Marshall frowned....- "We were trying to make a safety net but she cannot
jump that far." -He
Ginger Complex: nodded his head and sighed.-[d]
Ginger Complex: [ Habuki ] "...Hm...well can you guys use that strength to
propel me up?" -He asked, he reached into his adventure bag and took out a
grappling hook a metal hook upon a rope, he eyed it for a few seconds, and
nodded.- "I need to
Ginger Complex: get high enough so I can throw this at the window and catch
it." -He would take that in one hand, the other would feel a resonation of
water as it overcame him [ Water Shield - Coats self in water ] ---And the
boy nodded towards
Ginger Complex: the man now.- "Can you do this?"-[d]
Ginger Complex: [Fire Marshall] "...O-Oh you're a mage! All right..Um....well
we could just get Bruno. HEY BRUNO!!" -He cried out as from the crowd came
the biggest, bulkiest human a man could of ever seen---the Marshall smiled.-
"Bruno, grab our
Ginger Complex: friend and throw him at the window ok?!" -Bruno did not
speak much, but he took orders well, he grunted and looked at Habuki, and
nodded as he picked the man up now and took aim-[d]
Ginger Complex: [ Habuki} "Hey!!---H-hey watch the merchandise!" -Habuki
called out now, he grabbed the grappling hook and nodded.- "Make sure to
avoid the flames, Bruno, I rather like my attire." -And his hide---flames
were scary, but so was
Ginger Complex: losing a mother and child---and he heard the screams again
and growled.- "NOW---WE'RE WASTING TIME!---THROW ME!!' -The flames had
overtaken the view and the black smoke rose so all he could do is see the
smoke and hear the screams
Ginger Complex: a bad sign...to say the least.-[d]
Ginger Complex: [ Bruno] -The brutish man was trying to aim through the
smoke but the words startled the man and he grunted and nodded---the beast
would throw him up hard---as hard as he could and attempted to aim through
the smoke now and help
Ginger Complex: the young one save those far up above-[d]
Ginger Complex: [GM ]
Ginger Complex: --The smoke and the barrier were good indicators now as
Habuki sailed above the seas of the black smoke and appeared at the top---as
he appeared there would be a chance where he saw the woman and the
child---the flames had risen so
Ginger Complex: far that the woman had taken to climbing upon the roof---the
room she was in had become engulfed in flames now---it was there that it
seemed to be a small indicator where the hook could be thrown and from
there---maybe some way for
Ginger Complex: them too escape!-[d]
Ginger Complex: [ Beetle ] -He had no where to throw the damned grappling
hook cause he flew through the flames, and the shield exploded---just as he
flew through them, through the smoke and hit the ground a few feet from the
roof. Shingles and
Ginger Complex: tiles all filled his mouth as he coughed hard---and laid
there for a few seconds [ before he remembered the damned building was on
fire!!] his body swung forth as he pushed up now and looked around- "Ma'am
you ok?!" -He would say
Ginger Complex: now as he turned his sights there and saw her for the first
time......laying down, passed out. The child was in her arms, held up but
seems she had fainted. The smoke was curling fast as Habuki rushed to her.-
"Wake up!' ---But
Ginger Complex: there was no time too wake her....and thus the body was
slung over his shoulder, and he gripped the babe in his other hand and looked
down----the baby gurgled and cooed at him.- "....How're we gonna get down,
love?"-[d]
Ginger Complex: [ GM ]
Ginger Complex: -He better think of something because the fires were
intensifying and even the ground [ or rooftop] below them was beginning to get
hotter and hotter now. There was an indication that he better get the hell
out of dodge, if he wanted
Ginger Complex: to rub out of this place a free man---there was some
indication of the flames slowing down a little bit downs wind [ maybe the
Mages had arrived] but the smoke and flames were too much to see through and
even his Dark sight didn't see
Ginger Complex: through all things-[d]
Ginger Complex: [Beetle Habuki ] "Ok!" -And the boy walked towards the
edge and looked towards one of the nearby buildings---he would swing the
grappling hook in one hand as the indicator spun and swung, he holding his
breath now as he would
Ginger Complex: stare forth---there was something in the distance of where
it could hook upon [ one of the nearby gargoyles] and from there, if one
managed to shimmy across to the lower building, one could find an exit more
easily. The boy was
Ginger Complex: relying on pure dumb luck as he released the grappling hook
and grunted.- "LET HER RIP!" ---And he had made sure this worked.....cause
as it latched onto in the distance a bit of an ice elementt on the hook,
froze to the first thing
Ginger Complex: it touched---the gargoyles neck-[d]
Ginger Complex: [ GM ]
Ginger Complex: -Success! The froze to the darkness of the gargoyle, but
upon that moment, it seemed the futile efforts were meaningless as the
flames had hit the top of the room now---they were cascading and spinning in
random directions, headed
Ginger Complex: towards him now, attempting to take him down...the flames
were spreading fast and that vampire boy better move or he was going to be
in....quite a sticky situation! Dealing with the lives of two innocent
women and then his own un
Ginger Complex: death [ that could be bad]-[d]
Ginger Complex: [ Habuki ] -+5 Acrobatics -- --The boy was gonna climb
slow, but when he saw the flames hit, the boy grabbed the mothers
unconscious body the baby's own now and threw himself upon the end of the
rope now---those feet were cascaded
Ginger Complex: now as he walked across the ends of the ropes, his feet
moving in a direct pace. The boots were not upon sloppy condition, so he did
not fret falling--he moved with the simplistic movements, downwards and away
from the fires that
Ginger Complex: escaped from above---still hidden from the crowds from the
blankets of smoke, the boy moved through them and into the light now---well
the light air---people cheered as they saw him stories above, headed towards's
the next building
Ginger Complex: and came too meet him from one building to the next----happy
ending, right? .....You wish---there was the crackling of flames and
splintering crack----Uh oh-[d]
Ginger Complex: [ GM ]
Ginger Complex: --It couldn't end so sweet and as the man lead down, the
flames followed now, they crackled across the rope that had been tied down to
the post from one end to the other---the rope was pretty resistant, but you
could only take so
Ginger Complex: much heat before you snapped...the boy was headed even more
downwards when he heard the splintering crack, already past the smoke and the
flames [ except the flames that had followed him down the rope] and whenever
the splintering
Ginger Complex: crack was heard, the rope broke and the rope began to lose
slack as it headed for him---meaning to take him down!-[d]
Ginger Complex: [ Habuki ] --He was running when he heard the crack,
because he knew what would happen, and he knew what was going too go
on....the boy would run for his life as the rope around him would begin to
loose slack and the boy would feel
Ginger Complex: his feet almost giving way from him...his feet were fast
pace d[ he was a vampire after all] and when the ropes seemed to vanish,
instead of struggling---Habuki preformed a desperate move.- "Hold on baby and
mama!!" -And in what he
Ginger Complex: saw was a desperation move, the boy would hold them tight as
he leapt from his un slacked place on the rope and began headed towards the
building now---headed towards the building at full throttle, his hands
extended before him as he
Ginger Complex: would grunt and slam hard.-[d]
Ginger Complex: [ GM ] --The two were tucked under his arms so they did not
suffer much--but the boy slammed hard into the building....the claws of his [
vampire claws] came out and stuck hard into the building now, each of them
stuck with enough
Ginger Complex: force to keep him latched onto the building, a huge slam
into the boys undead forehead caused a huge bruise to appear, purplish in
movements now. The boy would relapsed that he had slammed head first into
one of the lower gargoyles
Ginger Complex: ad head butted it, and his hands we ere embedded upon each
area, holding onto it for dear life now It was as he held that a huge ladder
appeared upon the not burning building---one upon each side of him, and two of
the volunteer firemen
Ginger Complex: would roll up, one taking the crying baby, the other of
the passed out woman, who seemed to of been breathing all right ---just
medical attention needed. As the two descended, there was someone who climbed
up after [ the chief] an
Ginger Complex: he looked at the boy-
Ginger Complex: [ Chief ] "Ext ordinary...I don't know...how you did it, but
you saved them You are a hero...A true hero." -He nodded as he undid the
boys claws, and the chief would begin carrying him down the ladder now. The
boys body was covered
Ginger Complex: in soot from the battle and there had been many losses, but
it seemed with this had some an expression of goodness, had come something
that....really couldn't be explained. True heroism....the boy and the chief
got downstairs, and
Ginger Complex: he grinned and patted the mans head before the crowd of
people.- "Tonight...we have seen a hero. A young man who risked his life
for the good of a mother and child---whom are both doing fine!" -The crowds
cheered, the mother and
Ginger Complex: child had been carted off by the healers, but they would
make full recoveries [ a little smoke in the moms lungs, but the baby
miraculously had gone on unharmed]- "Do you have words too say boy?"- -He
looked at Beetle-[d]
Ginger Complex: [ Habuki ] -Being lead down before the crowd, he smiled
towards them all now and shrugged his shoulder blades.- "..It was nothing,
only what any other would do when they saw a mother and child. I acted on
instincts." -That erupted
Ginger Complex: more cheers from the crowd----and the "GIVE HIM THE
MEDAL!" From a few other patrons. The boy blinked and looked towards them
now---pale skin covered in soot and he honestly didn't ever wanna see another
fire if his life depended
Ginger Complex: upon it!-[d]
Ginger Complex: [Chief ] "Ahh yes the medal...here." -He smiled and reached
into his bag and took out two prizes, the first was some money for his
efforts [ 300 Gold ] and the second was a beautiful medal with the symbols for
a Hero upon them.- "I
Ginger Complex: present too you....young Lad, the Hero's Pendant, for
showing such bravery in the time of need....you have acted how like all of us
wished we had So you will be rewarded, this medal will speed up your senses
and allow to see further
Ginger Complex: than ever before....may you take this medal with pride!"
-And the crowd cheered out loud now as he placed the medal upon his neck
now---it fitting kind of big on the teenagers neck [ it was meant for a grown
man] but figuring
Ginger Complex: the boy would grow into it....the gold also dispensed in his
other hand.- "....So what be your name boy?"-d]
Ginger Complex: [Habuki] -He blinked, and took the pendant [AQUIRED 300
GOLD AND HERO'S EYE MEDAL] from the old man and snagged the gold. he
grinned- "...Buki is what you can call me. I did what I had too do and will
continue to do it." -A nod
Ginger Complex: as the people came around and patted his shoulders, all it
did was bring a grin towards the vampires face now as he proclaimed.- "I
will do what I can for all those in need! I take this medal well of a hero
berceuse I will be--a
Ginger Complex: Hero too you all!!!-[d]
Ginger Complex: [ GM ]
Ginger Complex: ---And so against all odds, the boy triumphed now he had
managed to save the woman and her child from the elusive flames that man had
started---a medal of honor had been given, a title of Hero and that of the
name "Buki" may it reign
Ginger Complex: through the lands as the pale face teen who saved those
from that burning midnight. Maybe one day it would be forgotten, maybe one
day it would not be heard of---but this night---tonight, there was something
inside the boy born--
Ginger Complex: the heart of a hero-[d]

nodded.- "I need to
Ginger Complex: get high enough so I can throw this at the window and catch
it." -He would take that in one hand, the other would feel a resonation of
water as it overcame him [ Water Shield - Coats self in water ] ---And the
boy nodded towards
Ginger Complex: the man now.- "Can you do this?"-[d]
Ginger Complex: [Fire Marshall] "...O-Oh you're a mage! All right..Um....well
we could just get Bruno. HEY BRUNO!!" -He cried out as from the crowd came

smoke and hear the screams
Ginger Complex: a bad sign...to say the least.-[d]
Ginger Complex: [ Bruno] -The brutish man was trying to aim through the
smoke but the words startled the man and he grunted and nodded---the beast
would throw him up hard---as hard as he could and attempted to aim through
the smoke now and help
Ginger Complex: the young one save those far up above-[d]
Ginger Complex: [GM ]
Ginger Complex: --The smoke and the barrier were good indicators now as
Habuki sailed above the seas of the black smoke and appeared at the top---as
he appeared there would be a chance where he saw the woman and the
child---the flames had risen so
Ginger Complex: far that the woman had taken to climbing upon the roof---the
room she was in had become engulfed in flames now---it was there that it
seemed to be a small indicator where the hook could be thrown and from
there---maybe some way for
Ginger Complex: them too escape!-[d]
Ginger Complex: [ Beetle ] -He had no where to throw the damned grappling
hook cause he flew through the flames, and the shield exploded---just as he
flew through them, through the smoke and hit the ground a few feet from the
roof. Shingles and
Ginger Complex: tiles all filled his mouth as he coughed hard---and laid
there for a few seconds [ before he remembered the damned building was on
fire!!] his body swung forth as he pushed up now and looked around- "Ma'am
you ok?!" -He would say
Ginger Complex: now as he turned his sights there and saw her for the first
time......laying down, passed out. The child was in her arms, held up but
seems she had fainted. The smoke was curling fast as Habuki rushed to her.-
"Wake up!' ---But
Ginger Complex: there was no time too wake her....and thus the body was
slung over his shoulder, and he gripped the babe in his other hand and looked
down----the baby gurgled and cooed at him.- "....How're we gonna get down,
love?"-[d]
Ginger Complex: [ GM ]
Ginger Complex: -He better think of something because the fires were
intensifying and even the ground [ or rooftop] below them was beginning to get
hotter and hotter now. There was an indication that he better get the hell
out of dodge, if he wanted
Ginger Complex: to rub out of this place a free man---there was some
indication of the flames slowing down a little bit downs wind [ maybe the
Mages had arrived] but the smoke and flames were too much to see through and
even his Dark sight didn't see
Ginger Complex: through all things-[d]
Ginger Complex: [Beetle Habuki ] "Ok!" -And the boy walked towards the
edge and looked towards one of the nearby buildings---he would swing the
grappling hook in one hand as the indicator spun and swung, he holding his
breath now as he would
Ginger Complex: stare forth---there was something in the distance of where
it could hook upon [ one of the nearby gargoyles] and from there, if one
managed to shimmy across to the lower building, one could find an exit more
easily. The boy was
Ginger Complex: relying on pure dumb luck as he released the grappling hook
and grunted.- "LET HER RIP!" ---And he had made sure this worked.....cause
as it latched onto in the distance a bit of an ice elementt on the hook,
froze to the first thing
Ginger Complex: it touched---the gargoyles neck-[d]
Ginger Complex: [ GM ]
Ginger Complex: -Success! The froze to the darkness of the gargoyle, but
upon that moment, it seemed the futile efforts were meaningless as the
flames had hit the top of the room now---they were cascading and spinning in
random directions, headed
Ginger Complex: towards him now, attempting to take him down...the flames
were spreading fast and that vampire boy better move or he was going to be
in....quite a sticky situation! Dealing with the lives of two innocent
women and then his own un
Ginger Complex: death [ that could be bad]-[d]
Ginger Complex: [ Habuki ] -+5 Acrobatics -- --The boy was gonna climb
slow, but when he saw the flames hit, the boy grabbed the mothers
unconscious body the baby's own now and threw himself upon the end of the
rope now---those feet were cascaded
Ginger Complex: now as he walked across the ends of the ropes, his feet
moving in a direct pace. The boots were not upon sloppy condition, so he did
not fret falling--he moved with the simplistic movements, downwards and away
from the fires that
Ginger Complex: escaped from above---still hidden from the crowds from the
blankets of smoke, the boy moved through them and into the light now---well
the light air---people cheered as they saw him stories above, headed towards's
the next building
Ginger Complex: and came too meet him from one building to the next----happy
ending, right? .....You wish---there was the crackling of flames and
splintering crack----Uh oh-[d]
Ginger Complex: [ GM ]
Ginger Complex: --It couldn't end so sweet and as the man lead down, the
flames followed now, they crackled across the rope that had been tied down to
the post from one end to the other---the rope was pretty resistant, but you
could only take so
Ginger Complex: much heat before you snapped...the boy was headed even more
downwards when he heard the splintering crack, already past the smoke and the
flames [ except the flames that had followed him down the rope] and whenever
the splintering
Ginger Complex: crack was heard, the rope broke and the rope began to lose
slack as it headed for him---meaning to take him down!-[d]
Ginger Complex: [ Habuki ] --He was running when he heard the crack,
because he knew what would happen, and he knew what was going too go
on....the boy would run for his life as the rope around him would begin to
loose slack and the boy would feel
Ginger Complex: his feet almost giving way from him...his feet were fast
pace d[ he was a vampire after all] and when the ropes seemed to vanish,
instead of struggling---Habuki preformed a desperate move.- "Hold on baby and
mama!!" -And in what he
Ginger Complex: saw was a desperation move, the boy would hold them tight as
he leapt from his un slacked place on the rope and began headed towards the
building now---headed towards the building at full throttle, his hands
extended before him as he
Ginger Complex: would grunt and slam hard.-[d]
Ginger Complex: [ GM ] --The two were tucked under his arms so they did not
suffer much--but the boy slammed hard into the building....the claws of his [
vampire claws] came out and stuck hard into the building now, each of them
stuck with enough
Ginger Complex: force to keep him latched onto the building, a huge slam
into the boys undead forehead caused a huge bruise to appear, purplish in
movements now. The boy would relapsed that he had slammed head first into
one of the lower gargoyles
Ginger Complex: ad head butted it, and his hands we ere embedded upon each
area, holding onto it for dear life now It was as he held that a huge ladder
appeared upon the not burning building---one upon each side of him, and two of
the volunteer firemen
Ginger Complex: would roll up, one taking the crying baby, the other of
the passed out woman, who seemed to of been breathing all right ---just
medical attention needed. As the two descended, there was someone who climbed
up after [ the chief] an
Ginger Complex: he looked at the boy-
Ginger Complex: [ Chief ] "Ext ordinary...I don't know...how you did it, but
you saved them You are a hero...A true hero." -He nodded as he undid the
boys claws, and the chief would begin carrying him down the ladder now. The
boys body was covered
Ginger Complex: in soot from the battle and there had been many losses, but
it seemed with this had some an expression of goodness, had come something
that....really couldn't be explained. True heroism....the boy and the chief
got downstairs, and
Ginger Complex: he grinned and patted the mans head before the crowd of
people.- "Tonight...we have seen a hero. A young man who risked his life
for the good of a mother and child---whom are both doing fine!" -The crowds
cheered, the mother and
Ginger Complex: child had been carted off by the healers, but they would
make full recoveries [ a little smoke in the moms lungs, but the baby
miraculously had gone on unharmed]- "Do you have words too say boy?"- -He
looked at Beetle-[d]
Ginger Complex: [ Habuki ] -Being lead down before the crowd, he smiled
towards them all now and shrugged his shoulder blades.- "..It was nothing,
only what any other would do when they saw a mother and child. I acted on
instincts." -That erupted
Ginger Complex: more cheers from the crowd----and the "GIVE HIM THE
MEDAL!" From a few other patrons. The boy blinked and looked towards them
now---pale skin covered in soot and he honestly didn't ever wanna see another
fire if his life depended
Ginger Complex: upon it!-[d]
Ginger Complex: [Chief ] "Ahh yes the medal...here." -He smiled and reached
into his bag and took out two prizes, the first was some money for his
efforts [ 300 Gold ] and the second was a beautiful medal with the symbols for
a Hero upon them.- "I
Ginger Complex: present too you....young Lad, the Hero's Pendant, for
showing such bravery in the time of need....you have acted how like all of us
wished we had So you will be rewarded, this medal will speed up your senses
and allow to see further
Ginger Complex: than ever before....may you take this medal with pride!"
-And the crowd cheered out loud now as he placed the medal upon his neck
now---it fitting kind of big on the teenagers neck [ it was meant for a grown
man] but figuring
Ginger Complex: the boy would grow into it....the gold also dispensed in his
other hand.- "....So what be your name boy?"-d]
Ginger Complex: [Habuki] -He blinked, and took the pendant [AQUIRED 300
GOLD AND HERO'S EYE MEDAL] from the old man and snagged the gold. he
grinned- "...Buki is what you can call me. I did what I had too do and will
continue to do it." -A nod
Ginger Complex: as the people came around and patted his shoulders, all it
did was bring a grin towards the vampires face now as he proclaimed.- "I
will do what I can for all those in need! I take this medal well of a hero
berceuse I will be--a
Ginger Complex: Hero too you all!!!-[d]
Ginger Complex: [ GM ]
Ginger Complex: ---And so against all odds, the boy triumphed now he had
managed to save the woman and her child from the elusive flames that man had
started---a medal of honor had been given, a title of Hero and that of the
name "Buki" may it reign
Ginger Complex: through the lands as the pale face teen who saved those
from that burning midnight. Maybe one day it would be forgotten, maybe one
day it would not be heard of---but this night---tonight, there was something
inside the boy born--
Ginger Complex: the heart of a hero-[d]
