Rani cocks an eyebrow at the bartender's last suggestion, looking around at all the hooting and hollering men. "I'm flattered, really. Think I'll pass, though. Sorry to disappoint. Although that arena sounds fun. Thanks for the tip." She pays for her drink, rising to leave. "And I can find it on my own, boys. No need for any of you to come with." With a tip of her hat she heads out the door, heading toward that arena.
After the bar gets out of sight, she ducks into the nearest side alley. "Slaves, huh? And an arena for them to fight in. Tells me a little about this place. It's not the kind of place I want to be caught unprepared in." With a snap of her fingers, she activates the enchantment in her armor, turning her loose travel clothes into her tighter battle clothes.
Now dressed in dark pants, a white shirt, and sturdy shoes, she moves out of the alley. Pulling her hat low to hide her eyes, she retrieves a long knife from her blue bag, securing it to her belt. She goes to check out the arena. "This place just got more interesting..."

Sirena looks at the necklace with an eager excitement blooming in her eyes, she had been dreaming of gaining back what was hers for so long and this would just bring her closer to that dream. She couldn't even say a word as the excitement swelled inside of her, she looked around the room trying to find something that stood out to her and not seeing anything else she smiled widely at the necklace.
"I seek power. This necklace you promise brings me closer than I will take it but I need more. Do you know of where I can gain more to help my companions on our missions?"

The older woman nods to Sirena, she pulls out a map and places it on the table and spins it around for Sirena to view completely. She pointed at the map showing several small islands not far from where they were at.
"That my dear is where power lies. On these islands stand ancient temples guarded by powerful entities. They hold a great deal of power and if you managed to defeat them...That power than belongs to you. Be warned dear they are not the only creatures walking on that soil. Other creatures pursue this power and you will only get in their way."
With her other hand the old woman held her hand out to Sirena for payment. Those eyes watching her carefully.

Amethyst walks in the direction the bar tender had given her, she could see the building from where she was walking. Its massive walls towered well over several buildings and it was cleary a place of entertainment.
She could hear the crowd's screams even several blocks away. She finally came upon the building and made her way into it. Its stone walls held sparks of magic that seemed to contain protective barriers to make sure people on the outside were safe.
As she moved through crowds of people coming and going she managed to break free and enter an area where she could see out into the center of the arena.
At first glance there looked to be a young man standing in the midst of the arena, surrounded by at least twelve men so far and there looked to be others emerging from doorways. The arena floor was filled with sand that was once brown but now had a red coloring to it over the countless battles upon its surface.
The young man appeared to be in his late teens, sixteen maybe eighteen but he looked very young from this distance. As she was in touch with the earth however she could feel this young man was far behind his apperance in age. She couldn't make out for sure but he was well over sixty thousand years old. He had a thick collar strapped to his neck with a smooth surface and little magical runes etched into them that would spark with electricty.
He was one of the slaves that had just come in from another country and was being used for these peoples amusement.
The earth didn't seemed bothered by his presence but she felt a mixture of darkness and light radiating from him.
His long black hair was dirty with blood, his pony tail was almost completely released from the fabric's he had used to tie it into a somewhat reasonable fix in front of all these...people.
As Amethyst saw a little closer she could make out markings on the boy, scars covered the majority of his body,stitching and his skin now that she drew her focus on it was of multiple colors. One arm was a pale white, another tan, another a tad above pale and she could pin point these odd pieces due to his outfit being shredded.
His long coat was in ribbons laying on the ground scattered, his black pants cut and ripped also. His feet were barefoot and again more stitching and different colored toes even. His eyes were a deep brown, his face had stitching across part of his face.
He frowned at the men as they called him freak,monster, and a whole lot of other names.
The woman had been tossed in without any weapons, while all these other men had clubs,axes,pitch forks,chains,nets and a variety of swords.
The man seemed to have been defending himself for the most part as none of these men actually had any attacks upon their person. While the boy was cut,bruised and bleeding. The crowd booed the men below who were twice the boys size and didn't let him do much but be cornered. The boy stood a little over 6 feet but these men were massive in muscle and height. They were all half giants or actual giants themselves. Hill giants, storm giants, mountain giants and they were pitted against this young man.
A man snuck up behind the boy and clubbed him in the back causing him to stumble forward but he rolled and managed to avoid being impaled and slashed by the others. He ran toward part of the section where it had been raised and climbed part of the stone elevation that was created to give the battle a little more life.
The cheers and screams of the crowd rang in Amethyst's ears. The people seemed to enjoy the fight but it was only just starting.

((I presume doing this is fine.))
While the fight was going on Amethyst could see Cordelia talking to one of the people running the arena. After a few minutes of talking the man nods and Cordelia runs down towards the railing and vaults at least half the arena before landing and sliding to a stop with her arms slack.
The crowd goes silent for a moment and the competitors pause, confused as to what is happening.
The silence is broken by a sharp ring as Cordelia projects two blade from her wrists. And then the carnage begins.

Amethyst pales as she sees Cordelia vault into the ring, blades sprouting from her wrists like leaves on a plant. She begins pushing her way forward, trying to get closer, not sure what good it will do. "What's that girl doing now? This is not how one behaves on shore leave!" Pushing a little magic into her voice, she is able to convince the spectators to clear a path for her, making her way up to the very edge of the arena. Should she decide to, she could leap into the ring herself, but for now she stays, watching with concern and a small amount of interest.
Actually, the concern is kinda fading now that she's up close. Cordelia can handle herself, and this could be interesting!

The giants werent expecting to see some little runt girl jump into the arena. Now she was slashing up giants and they screamed in fury. The ones giants she had attacked take a good deal of slashes but they manged to start getting into the flow of battle now.
The fire giants screamed and jumped into the fray beserking, they wielded massive battle axes the size of themselves and brought down heated weapons intent on splitting the little bitch. They roared and followed up with attacks getting in sync with eachother. Cordelia could tell that these warriors were sent together as a team.
As soon as the fire giants were done with their series of attacks, Frost Giants summons a powerful gust of freezing wind with ice shards into it intent on turning her into a pin cushion.
They crowd roared with excitement at this new action. It must of been awhile since someone had jumped into the arena to fight.
The young man looked over as he dodged another large hammer to his body, as he did he was grabbed by one of the storm giant's lightning whips, his body shook violently with the electricity and was thrown through the air and with another yank the Storm Giant brought the man back to earth straight into the ground.
Even over the screams of the crowd, roars of the giants, Amethyst could hear a sickening crack of bones cracking or out right breaking. The man vomited up blood and looked even paler than he did before.
He twisted and in that moment the lightning whip vanished from the Storm Giant's hand, he looked surprised but the young man stood up quickly with a spring in his step and sparks of lightning danced along his chest through his stitches. He shrugged to the giant and sprang forward. He dodged a hammer, leaping onto the weapon as the giant pulled it up and kicked it in the face breaking his nose.
He launched off its face and onto the Storm giants back and dug his hands into its body. Lightning forked off the young man and surged through the giant's body causing blood to rupture and the giant dropped down.
"TRULY AMAZING! DO YOU SEE HOW THESE TWO WARRIORS FIGHT AGAINST SUCH ODDS!!"
The announcer screamed through magical means over everyone else as he made broadcasts. Magical screens appeared up for people to see all angles as the fight continued.

The killing intent from Cordelia is enough to be felt even outside the arena walls. She dodges the first axe blow by jumping to the side so that the axe is now in the ground and the giant that swung it is now between her and the other giants. She then shoves one of her blades into the ground to pivot and the releases a burst of energy from her right leg which sends it into a upward kick aimed aproximately at the elbow of the giant that just attacked her. Despite the way that they attack looks, if it hits it will cleanly sever the arm.
Whether the arm is severed or not another burst of energy blasts from the side of her other foot and she uses this kick to blast the axe currently in the ground towards the other fire giant.
Cordelia completely ignores the incoming ice shards and they seem to have no effect, most of them just bouncing off of her. She uses the wind to manuver into a slightly better position.

Cordelia slices straight through the giants arm, it screams in agony as its limb falls to the ground with its weapon and blood soaks the battlefield. It falls to one knee gripping its arm and roars in fury. One of the giants behead the screaming party member cursing him for weakness.
The giant that sliced the fire giants head off was a earth Titan. He had granite armor, a massive sword that was carved out of some stone that seemed to shift and change in density. Its gray eyes lit up with an intensity to crush Cordelia.
The Titan spun his blade swiftly through the air and darted forward sending a series of jabs and quick slashes in Cordelia's direction trying to cut her off. The sand beneath her rose to this mans control and started to wrap up and tried to grip her feet attempting to stop her in her tracks.
The young man had been stabbed twice now, he staggered away where his black blood spilled along the ground and he continued to frown at these giants. He rolled away as another came in to strike him and he let out a muffled scream as if his voice wasn't too good at the moment. It could be because of the blood leaking from his mouth but it was hard to tell at this point in time.
With all the blood coating the ground, using his own in with this ability he lit the whole section where he was fighting up with a jolt of electricity. The giants stumbled as they tried to get out of the wet sand and it quickly melted into their skin and caused sever pain and some even passed out dropping around him.
He was still breathing heavily, two large gashes showing and blood still poured from his wounds.
With Cordelia taking a good portion of rage from the giants they seemed to focus on her now. Trying to meld their elemental heritage together and caused a blast of super heated fire to rain onto the sand around her to crystalize and help their Titan leader.
Cordelia could see to her left the axe that she managed to kick out of the giant's falling hand buried deep into another of the giant companions skulls close to the young man.

Sirena summoned a massive bag of gold and heaved it onto the countert. She opened it up and let it spill a few coins to show she wasn't faking it.
"Thanks for the map and necklace. I'm not worried about enemies. We have a good team and I think we can handle it."
Sirena slipped on the necklace, grabbed the map and stuffed it into a pocket. She gave the woman another wave and teleported out. She went to where she sensed the others appearing beside Amethyst.
She looked out at the fight and her eyes went wide.
"Well it seems our Cordelia is growing up quickly. So you joining Amethyst or should we just let Cordelia have all the fun?"

While traveling through this city, Thrash got lost in the crowd and quickly lost track of where he had been headed. Finding himself in front of an arena, Thrash was sure this was not where he wanted to be. Still, he figured that the answers he was looking for could wait and so he headed inside for a little exitement. He found his way up into the crowd just in time to see Cordelia fighting giants. Not sure what was going on, but certainly interested in seeing how this new companion fights, he stood watching, no longer even interested in finding a seat.
