Many different emotions flick across Jasmine's face as Gantu talks. Sympathy, irritation, disbelief, chagrin, puzzlement and finally she settles into a look that says she is mulling things over. Exhaling softly she finally begins to speak again. "I am sympathetic to your plight, but your reason that there are innocent sentient lives to save is also true of my planet. However, right now I do not know how to get back as I do not even know how I got here. I will not have my word about the Ba'al's doubted or I will not stay. They are evil beyond measure. If you cannot even trust my word on that then there would be no point in trying to work together. Your colleague should definitely have thought twice before trying to link his mind to a sentient sword that he knows nothing about. That was hasty and foolish at best. He knew nothing about me, but decided the sword I was carrying would be safe to open his mind to. She shakes her head a bit in disbelief that anyone would do that. "I'm sorry, but I cannot fix your friends stone, nor do I know anything about how it can be fixed. I am not from this dimension, nor do I know what Durandal did to break it. He will have to figure that out himself. I am not trying to be difficult, I just don't have a way to help with that. As it is I think your friend should be more careful throwing threats and warnings around. He left himself very vulnerable trying to cow us just now. I do not want there to be bad blood between us...but that is not a reason to stay. As I said I have no way home so if you will agree to return me to a safe location within the Nightlands when this is finished I will stay and help. There may have been a reason that I ended up being transported here in your hour of need. I will not ignore that calling any more than I would not ignore Durandal. If you can agree to return me I will see if I can be of help in this war."

Gantu gave her an amused, but slightly confused look. "If we agree to send you back to your dimension, you'll then return and help us in our war?"

Jasmine raises her eyebrows at Gantu like that is absurd. "Orrr (frowns)...we could do like I said and return me when the war is finished. As long as I can get back to help my world that is all that matters."

While Jasmine in talking to Gantu she asks Durandal, Is this alright with you? Do you want to stay and help in this war?

Gantu chuckles, "My apologies. I misinterpreted you. If you give me your word that you will do all in your power to protect the people of this world from the coming Demons and Deevils, I will give you mine that I will see you and your sword sent home..." Gantu paused. "How long does your species live? This war may last quite a while and we can not have you here nearly your entire life. Would 5 Earth years sound reasonable?"

Jasmine:
"One war is as good as another. Demons and Deevils are similar enough to Nightlords that my powers will be effective".

Jasmine listens to Durandal's response and turns to Gantu. "5 Earth years sounds reasonable enough. We shall see what comes of them. Pleased to make your aquaintance and join your team." Jasmine holds out her hand to seal the deal and show that she now considers Gantu a comrade in arms.

Gantu shakes gingerly, as if he is unsure of his own strength. Even so it is a strong handshake. "Glad to have you on our side. Are you sure you can't atleast try to help Kira restore his stone? Please?" Gantu tries a small smile, but it felt strange on his face.

"No, I can't," Jasmine shakes her head. "I do not trust him. Durandal said something odd about him when we first arrived....," she pauses for a moment trying to recall what was said. Her hand goes up to her forhead as she thinks, partially covering her eyes. "Ah, now I remember!" Her hand flies up off her face as the memor returns. "It seems this Kira had presumed that we were here for him. Durandal said we had no idea that there was one wanting to follow in the Ba'al's footsteps here." Her face changed in an instant turning to one of loathing and hate. She spit on the floor in front of Gantu. "I will not help someone that would follow the Ba'al. He has no friend in me."

Gantu looked at the spit on the floor. That's really a shame. The floor is new, he thought to himself.

"Alright. Your help in the war is more than enough. I had simply hoped to prevent bad blood between the group. Obviously, I was tardy in doing so. Anyway, our head quarters are elsewhere. I will arrange to have you sent there to see what my leaders would like you to do. Or contact them anyway. Sadly, Kira, whom you seem to have a problem with, is the leader of this installment.(OOC: Right?) If you would prefer, I could fly you to headquarters quite quickly." Gantu offered a hand, as if in invitation. "I saw your armor before, it should be sufficent to protect you from the wind."

(OOC: LOL!)

Jasmine activates the armour and takes Gantu's hand in answer to his query. She was in no hurry to hang around a place where Kira was in charge. Besides, why delay meeting the boss. Best she make herself useful immediately.

Gantu nods, and then scoops Jasmine up in his arms. He slowly flew outside, to make sure he can control this flight thing properly. Once he was outside, he slowly accelerated to Mach 3, flying very high to avoid the buildings and causing a stir with his sonic boom. Slowing down and Landing in front of the church in Albany(?) that was the headquarters before, he put Jasmine down gingerly. (At 2300 miles per hour, it would have taken about 25 minutes to get there) "There you are Ma'am. I will introduce you." He lead her in and set up everything to get her involved in the group. Once she is set up, he nods to her and flys back to St.Louis.

(sorry I did not include this in my previous post, but I am reworking my character after all)

Land Nav 89% (1d100=97) FACEPALM

After flying for a short time and landing in an unfamiliar city, Gantu looks around. "Ummmm, One more try?"

(accidentally rolled twice but this is the first roll)
Land Nav 89% (1d100=7)

This time Gantu sets the newcomer down and gets her set up in HQ, he then heads back to St. Lious to get started on the security Ideas he had for the pyramid.

Jasmine releases the armour as Gantu sets her down and thanks him for the lift. "Quite the sightseeing detour," she said with a smile. She walks inside and waits for whoever it is that was in charge here to come and greet her and fill her in on her role in what was going to happen.

As Jasmine walks inside the church, one very much like she knows where she comes from, a nun is walking down the eisle. She looks askance at the sword on Jasmine's hip and turns to look her in the face. "What may I do for you child"?

Seeing the nuns glance towards the sword Jas quickly turns it back into the silver armband so as to put her mind at ease. "I was just brought here by Gantu. I understand him to be part of the team helping with the defense agaisnt the impending war. I have just been enlisted. Since this is the headquarters Gantu brought me here to speak to the people in charge and be put to work doing whatever I might be helpful at."

Gantu bows slightly to the sister, "This is Jasmine. She has come from another dimension. I asked her to help and she agreed to work with us for 5 years before returning home. I have indeed brought her to be admitted to the 'team' and given an assignment."

Kira:
Gregory takes Kira aside after Gantu leaves with Jasmine. "There is a place called the Garbage Pit. A dozen or more dimensions use it as a dumping grounds for their waste. Everything from bodily waste to broken hulls of ships. There is an outpost of people in a place called Salvage City. It is there that you may be able to find the Artificer. However you will need something to trade to get into the city. Parts, supplies or information to one of those two should get you in".

Jasmine & Gantu:

"Father Damian and Lady Fatima are in Pittsburgh making weapons for the war. I believe that the headquarters will be moving to one of the pyramids once they are built. I would suggest that you take her to help oversee the building of the pyramids".

==Kira==

"Parts and supplies shouldn't be a problem, this world has many of those. The only problem if I go is knowing how and when to return. I have seen how capable you and your fellow masters are and I do not think that a brief excursion would hinder you in any way, but though they have not yet moved against us, the demons could come at any time. If they do you will need me. Can you bring me back quickly if need be? If not, then staying here will have to be the first priority. The construction of these pyramids and your safety are of paramount importance, though the loss of the stone grieves me, its recovery is secondary in comparison."

Gregory nods. "I could get you back. However all Rifts to the dimension open up anywhere from ten, to a hundred feet above the ground. So if I did open a rift to retrieve you, you would need a way to get to the Rift. I am sure that you could either get your hands on a jet pack or something similar when you get there. I can provide a piece of the pyramid that way if we do need to get you back we can track you down, and not have to search for you. If you want to go, it will take me about six hours to get things ready, plenty of time for you to do some shopping".

"That sounds perfect. The chip of stone will be important, I would like to implant it under my skin or fastened to my body inside a bracelet before I leave so as not to lose it."

If that is all then Kira will head out to do some shopping, buying bottled water, potting soil, a selection of seeds for a number of different strong and easy to grow plants, non perishable foods, and 3 kits filled with general medical supplies (disinfectant, gauze, tape, painkillers, etc...). He packs it all in the biggest most durable duffel bag he can find and carefully hides a few of the finest select fresh fruits and vegetables in the bag.

The time goes by and when Kira returns to the pyramid he finds Gregory ready to go. He nods to Kira and proceeds to open the portal.

Gantu looks to Jasmine, "Oh. Well, I was mistaken. I will take you to Pittsburgh immediately, unless you would rather accompany me back to the pyramid and help me to safe guard it, as the Sister suggested." Gantu inclined his head to the sister politely.

"Since I can do nothing to help forge weapons I don't see how I can be of any help in Pittsburgh. May as well take me back to the pyramids to help guard it."

"Then welcome to the security team. Let us be away. Thank you Sister." he waved to her as he left, and once outside extended his hand to Jasmine. When she took it,. he scooped her up and flew back to the pyramid. Setting down at the security booth, Gantu got Jasmine the proper clearance.

Before he left, Gantu had an idea. "Jasmine...would you like to spar? I have recently gone through some...changes, as if I remember rightly, you have too. Perhaps we should practice with our new abilities incase we need to use them in the near future?"

Jasmine gives Gantu a playful grin and backs away a few steps. "That sounds like a good idea to me." Her armband becomes her sword again and she is instantly covered in the glowing armour again. "That still takes a little getting used to," she admits.
