Elsina stood in the alley and waited for her friends to arrive. Adder would be coming soon, she had just needed to eat breakfast. Elsina looked at her watch 7:55. Everyone had 5 minutes to arrive. Creed, Pandria and Amara were going to be most excited and nervous about where their journey was taking them.
She checked the supplies. 1 tent for 4 people. 2 tents for 2 people. And 8 sleeping bags. Using a bit of her magic she made them the size of a small back pack and waited they had 4 minutes left...

Amara, Pandria, and Creed stepped out of a large portal down the alley. "Are we late?" Amara asked running over to Elsina.

Rayne stepped into the alley quietly. She didn't annouce her presence, for she felt there was no need. Her grey eyes watched Amara run up.
Rayne wore grey pants and a shirt under a long hooded jacket. Last time they'd gone to another world it had been freezing. Her bag was slung over her shoulder. She'd taken out some of her things to lighten the load, but she felt some of the stuff would be needed. She settled it better on her shoulders and approached the group.

Suddenly a portal appeared and Gwen walked out wiping a drop of blood from the corner of her mouth. "Hey guys." she said walking up next to Creed. She gave him a quick hug and picked out one of the sleeping bags and shifted her own book bag on her shoulder.
Elsina handed each person a sleeping bag or tent to carry. Soon Adder was seen running down the street her black locks fanning out behind her as she sped on. A back pack thumped up against her and a basket was in her hands.
She huffed as she reached them. "Hey guys, sorry if I'm late. I picked up some stuff to eat on the way." Now that she wasn't pregnant she seemed to be eating nonstop, but she only bought foods with low calories. she had shrunk back to her original figure before thay had even found her due to malnourishment, she had even gone below weight. But now she was gaining it back.

Amara had a small pack slung around her right shoulder to carry her things. "Are we missing anyone?" she asked stuffing a tent into the bag.
"The portal's ready it should take us directly to where we want to go" Creed said leaning against a brick wall.

Rayne excepted a tightly wrapped sleeping bag from Elsina and placed it in her bag. She carefully re-arranged the bag so that she knew where everything was and so the things she would need to get were in a position where she could get them quickly.
She looked up at Elsina after she had finished. "When are we going? And where exactly? And one more thing: How dangerous will it be?"

Elsina grinned. "Yes, I believe we're all here." She said before whispering where they needed to go so he could prepare the portal. "We need to be dropped of in the Bodemi Plains in the Dragon Realms. I don't think you'll mind being our guide will you?" She grinned.
Gwen slumped against the wall next to Creed feeling relieved. She had shown affection, well sorta, and Pandria had not killed her. She hadn't even done anything. But then again neither had Creed... Amara had been right about Pandria though. Phew, one crisis avoided. she thought to herself.

"Ok let's get going!" Amara said jumping into the portal. Pandria followed along with Creed.
"Oh and Gwen," Pandria said turning back. "I'm going to be awake the whole time."

At Pandria's comment, Rayne's eyes flicked to her, then Gwen and then Creed. It took quite a bit of effort for her to maintain a straight face.
Rayne followed then through the portal warily. She wasn't used to portals yet nor any kind of magic.

Gwen gulped apparently not so avoided. Acctually not avoided in the least. She shoot Amara a questioning look right before she stepped through the portal.
As she reached the other side she sighed. Even the dark side of the Dragon Realms was beautiful.

"If you have any weapons I suggest you take them out and get ready to use them." Amara siad fumbling through her bag.
She pulled out a piece of wood with several different kinds of metal projecting out. She blew on one end of the piece of wood and put it away.

Rayne took a belt from her bag and buckled it around her waist. Along the belt were many different pouches varying in size, though they were all made of a soft, dark leather.
She stuck her hand in her bag again and fiddled about. She knew where everything was, so she didn't even have to open the bag. None of the others could see what she was doing. Finished, she pulled her coat tighter about her and looked to the others.

Gwen eyed the dagger strapped to her arm on a band. Then clicked a trigger on her palm that made two spring loaded daggers pop into her hands. Then she slid them back in and checked to made she her gun was safely at her waist, it was. Her eyes swept the plains alert for danger.
Elsina rested her hand on the hilt of her sword and thought of the gun in her bag. She knew that Adder had herself well protected. But with what she had no idea. Well, she did know that she was carrying a sword, it was kind of hard to hide that.
Once they were all in the plain Elsina signaled to Creed to let the portal close. She saw the cave a few leagues ahead. It wouldn't be long now...

Amara pulled a few daggers and a sword out of Pandria's bag. "Do you guys want to walk or do you want a ride?" she asked clipping the sword and sheath on her belt and strapping the daggers on the other side.
Creed did the same with two long swords while Pandria waited for them.

Rayne shrugged. "I'll walk," she told Amara.
Her grey eyes surveyed the landscape. She saw no threat but something could be hidden anywhere. She'd keep her guard up. She spotted the cave that Elsina was staring at. Rayne guessed that was their destination. "No time like the present," she murmured, adjusting her belt and putting her hand in her bag to double-check.
