The sight she was met was an usual one. A large stadium and a court was where she found the people. Below she could see warrior and several other dressed individuals. They were playing a game yet she knew it was no ordinary game. A game of life and death if those who lost would be sacrificed to the gods. Turning her attention away from the game she drifted in to the crowds and to the King. Trying not to draw attention to herself she went along the shadows of the buildings and behind the Kings throne.

The Mayan King nods to the woman as she comes and sits in the empty chair. It is done. There is no return, the stone was off to find it's rightful heir. Soon it would be the dreaded time to reveal to the demon that he had been fooled. Warriors stood by on the sidelines around the village, ready to fight to their honorable deaths. He leans over behind him and thanks the Healer then whispers to her, "Is all ready? I will announce it at the last goal." He figured there would not be a ritual sacrifice at the end of the match. Enough sacrifice of blood will be made when the will have to fight the demon god.
Tarik had been enjoying the attention of the servant girls. It had been a long time since he could enjoy the kingly pleasures. He spent so much time on his quest to defeat the guardians. The final goal was near. He rooted the warriors on and tried to lend them a hand, although they were very good and really held their own. The ball was being passed very close to the goal...

Eiji blinked a few times, something wasn't right, he began scanning over the arena, noticing a dark aura over the ball as it traveled, "You dirty snake. Two can play at this game. Eiji put his necklace under his clothing to hide the glow. He then began to twirl hi finger around causing a gust, not to strong, to blow the ball off course and miss the goal. Eiji smirks to himself, feeling proud.

The blond woman sat herself behind the empty chair behind the King. She would prefer not to draw attention to herself. The King turned to her she smiled kindly beneath the cloak he thanked her for escorting his daughter away. Inclining her head she nodded "Yes it is ready your majesty...." she confirmed to the King. A sudden worry filled her eyes as her attention drifted to the man who was surrounded by young servant girls. The scene was all to familiar to her.

there's something more to this than we first realised the mayan king is stalling tarik for some reason. maybe no one will be secrificed at the end of this match. she thought to the other guardians including roarke as she watched the ball come towards her, leaping up shehiut it towards onyx using her shoulder before quickly looking around her again. we need to help the village if tarik tries to do anything to them after the match, she thought.

So you noticed too? There is something bigger going on here. We need to get to the bottom of this before Tarik notices what what we've noticed. Eiji continues to seat in his seat, observing the game for anymore disturbances.

Roarke tilted his head slightly, clenching his fist as he slid between the legs of one of the warriors charging towards the ball to deflect it. He grabbed the man's ankle, dragging him down to the ground as he rose to his feet with a fluid motion. Onyx exhaled, feeling the air leave his body as he leaped up, bouncing the hard ball of his chest, then slingshotted it from his knee before doing a cartwheel, launching the ball through the hoop for the final time. If he tries anything... I'm going to stop holding back; Scaoill's pissed off enough at Tarik to rip the demon king apart, literally, he thought. The Mayan King knows something we do not; likely from the woman behind him, he said dryly, having noticed the movement of the blond woman; though he was certain she hadn't noticed his awareness of her with the goings on of the game.

Acos muttered. She guessed she was hearing spirits or something, but she forgot sbout the voices as she remembered the game.

Tarik watched as the guardians made the final goal. Oh well, he thinks. Time to get the stone, entertainment was over. He gets up but the king comes over and tells him that the stone is gone and pleads for mercy. Tarik is furious. He claps his hands and the village starts to shake. An earthquake. "How dare you cross me!" Tarik then clenched his fist and one of the buildings collapses. "Your people will suffer for tricking me! Let your people burn!"
He send a rain of molten rock and fire over the village then leaves to get back on his boat to find the person with his stone.

" no!" elaise shouts seeing what tarik had done to the village, her eyes gleaming slightly " we need to help them, we can't just leave them to die."
lifting her hand she sent a burst of water towards one of the nearby fires quickly putting it out before turning to the others.

Acos raced forward and grabbed Tarik around the neck. "You sill pay for this. And I still don't know why you like it!" she hissed, then flung Tarik against a burning tree.

Onyx growled low in his throat, fighting back the demonic fury welling up within him from the demon sealed within his body. He focused it, then used it to douse the flames around him for several hundred feet in a shockwave of energy.

Acos flew up, flapping so her wings made wind that blew out the remaining flames.

elaise could feel the shockwave of energy and looked at onyx. " you really are amazing sometimes." she said softly looking around her for a sign of tarik " we need to talk to the king maybe he'l help us. after all we did save some of his village." she muttered to onyx glancing over at the king.
