The afternoon is quickly setting at Grand Chase castle. The sky has turned a mixture of orange and red while the remaining sunlight has turned the forest into the great shadow over the large field. The group has already begun to settle for the day.

A bright flash appears in the back field close to one of the many entrances of the forest. The mage and thief appear as the light dims

"Here we are." said the mage as she walked towards the castle "Now Lass I want you to go and talk to Amy and Lire too I'm not the only one you had worried ok."

"Yea I know" replied the thief looking down at the idea of what he put them through "I'll go talk with them right now."

And with that the thief became a blur the passed the mage as he shadow step towards the door to begin his search for the dancer and archer.

"What a troublesome boy." Arme giggled to herself before walking to the castle herself.

Now inside the castle Lass had slowed to a fast walk know where the two would be. Lire could usually be found in the library and Amy would most likely be somewhere in the garden. Lass figured it would be better to look for Lire first since he was already inside.

After exiting the grand hall through the front entrance turning left directly under the stairs where two large doors the opened up to a larger part of the castle. This section was cut into two different rooms one was a simple chamber with a fire place, a small table and very well made chairs where those who were looking for a quiet place inside the castle came to relax. The other section was a small library. It mostly included text on old history, maps of the different continents and some old journals the knights used when reporting on missions. Of course there was one section filled with manuals and special books used by Mari and Arme for creation and magical study.

"Lire! Lire are you in here?" cried out the thief as he walked by each shelf.

"Lass? Over here!" yelled back Lire her voice coming from one of the farthest back shelves

The thief continued to walk now in silence till arriving at where the voice came from. Much to his surprise though she wasn't alone Mari and even more surprising Amy was with the archer.

"Oh good your both here." The thief said as he gained the attention of all the girls

The girls just gave a confused look.

"Did you need something Lass?" asked the archer obviously curious of why he was calling for her

"Um well yea from you and Amy." He replied "I um… just wanted to say I'm sorry for worrying you and that I'm ok now"

"Are you really ok?" ask the dancer in a very skeptical tone

Lass just nodded and smiled. Both girls eyes widened as they never seen Lass' smile so clearly. In perfect sync they rushed the thief both clinging on to one arm. Suddenly Mari joined in as well wrapping around his waist

"Mari? Why did you join in?" asked a shocked thief

"What was I not suppose to? Everyone was doing it." Replied the rune caster in her very almost sarcastic way of talking

The thief just let out a sigh and the girls let go. They exchanged quick goodbyes and the thief was on his way out of the library.

As he opened and closed the doors behind him before he had a chance to turn to continue walking he was in the headlock of none other than the immortal gladiator Sieghart.

"Seriously how many time am I going to get ambushed by someone today!" the thief yelled out as Sieghart's grip was now in place.

"Sorry Lassy boy." replied the gladiator laughing while he did "But guess what?"

"What?" mumbled the very annoyed thief

"You're going to spar with us. So pull yourself together and me us outside." Said the gladiator releasing the thief from his headlock and began walking towards the grand hall to exit out back

Lass just sighed and began to walk to the stairs and continued to his room to grab a weapon. Lass' room was one of the last one at the dead end of the hall. Right next door to him was Arme's room and across was Ronan's.

Lass opened the door and walked inside. His room was very simple. A nicely kept bed with a blue spread, a closet for his many outfits and armors and a few shelves where he kept weapons.

After grabbing a pair of daggers and slipping some on light armor he opened his window and hopped across the roof of the castle to quickly get to the field out back.

After arriving he scanned who was participating in this bout. Elesis was hopping in place holding her twin swords while she did. Sieghart was laying on the grass gladius at his side. Ronan and Ryan were also talking part Ronan with his tyrfing and Ryan with his jade hook.

"A five man match?" asked the thief as he was now standing over the gladiator lying on the ground

"Yup Lassy boy" replied Seighart picking himself up off the ground "Everyone get in positions!"

The five participant knight took places distancing themselves from one another. After talking fight postures a magic countdown began. As the light of the word go appeared all five knights began their match.
