"Yes, I can somewhat." Rink replied. "It looks like the armies are fighting at the cities...I can't make out much however. It seems a bit tricky to see."
He then scanned the area a bit more. "Hmmm, I also see a patch of light somewhere...I can see, a couple off people there, not sure who they are..." He then, stood up and rotated his arms, making a slight cracking sound, since he was in a stiff position for awhile. "Should we go find the others?" Rink asked.

Suddenly the squad Darak was with was attacked by Grey Empire foot soldiers outside the city walls of Retangrad.
Darak could still barely see with the torch he was carrying. He spotted a soldier run at him; he swung his axe, in a horizontal motion, slicing the soldier's gut, taking him down to the ground. Another Grey soldier swung his sword at him, he blocked it with his axe, yet he dropped his torch, and the light went out.
"Shit!" Darak cursed as the light went out. He then kicked at the soldier, and then swung his axe downward at his enemy finishing him off.
He then backed into something and following his first reflex he spun around and hacked at the it with his axe, making a wood chopping sound. He appeared to have hit a tree. He let out a breath of relief. Torchlight then cased his shadow upon the tree, and he turned around, and readied to attack the person, yet it was a friendly.
"Ah, good." Darak said, nodding, he picked up the unlit torch, and then motioned to the torch barrier. "Quick, light it." The soldier did so, and the two then split up.

"Hopefully that will not reveal our position." Marshal said to Ein, as he stood up. He then checked his machinegun. "Well then, maybe we should still be on the look out. I can hear a battle going on however, near by the cities. However, I'm mainly worried about the Empire's allies. Mostly that Zeros' guy. He gives me the creeps."
----
"No I didn't hear anything. I haven't seen Valos since he walked off, for some reason." He then stepped beside Ven, to get a closer look at what he was looking at.
"I don't know...They don't think those guys are with the Empire." He said softly. "But judging by the fact that they are sneaking around in pitch dark I don't think they are here on a pleasure trip..."
He then softly stepped closer. "Let's see what they're up to."

Suddenly a purple glowing projectile began to fall down in the centre of the battle outside of Retangrad. A few soldiers looked as the glow landed down, some people even stopped fighting.
A figure covered in a glowing purple aura could be seen. The figure stood up, the Crimson troops recognized him as Valos. He then drew out his sword, and pointed it diagonally upward. He remained silent and motionless.
Abbodahon's voice echoed in his head. Remember your place Valos, or else you'll loose your freedom, just like Nex did.
He closed his eyes, and then swung his sword around in the air. A Grey Empire soldier ran at him, yet his head was sliced off before he could even make a move. He then began to clash swords and fight with the troops attacking him.
----
"That fool..." Abodahon, groaned. He was viewing Valos fighting. "Well...I'll give him awhile, he's been in the Empire for a long time, so it should take him awhile to think things over."
He was sitting down on some sort of demonic throne. The room was glowing red, and the doorway seemed to have figures of skeletons and demons, there was an eerie looking fountain that flowed red wine. A servant scooped up some of the wine with a wine glass and handed it to Abodahon. He sipped the wine, as he watched the fight go on. He then viewed the fight at Alphagrad. "Ahhh." Abodahon grinned. "My men have arrived."
----
Suddenly five ghostly figures seemed to jump over the walls, of Alphagrad. Yet detail could not be easily noticed, they were wearing dark grey suits, and had strange red glowing eyes, and wore gauntlets, similar to Abbodahon's yet made of a more simple metal, and only rubies on them, and much smaller. They began to blast blood red lasers from their hands at the Crimson warriors.
