Mathew rubs his temples. He needed to calm down. "I'm sorry Bruiser, I shouldn't of yelled at you like that." He says. "I just need a second to think....." His face had gone pale from the shock, and it just hit him how weak he felt. After taking a minute or two to compose himself, he asks Bruiser, his voice barely a whisper, and quite weak. "Do you know in what direction the magic came from? And if you felt it again, could you identify it?" After hearing her answer, he realized they have to act now to get information. Asking Bruiser to help him to the car, he allows her to drive back to their base aw quick as possible. Upon reaching the base, he readies [Action x] and releases [Action y]. These are discussed in the previous PM's sent to you. Checks: (it appears they didn't go through on the PM

0800 - 1300 Mathew stands there, completely horrified by what just happened..... It can't be.... The one person who had supported him. gone. GONE! Wait. Bruiser was acting different this morning. She even suggested waiting! SHE KNEW SOMETHING! "BRUISER!" Mathew screams, his voice a mixture of anguish and rage. "WHAT! DO! YOU! KNOW!?" After a second, he composes himself. Well, partially at least, considering the circumstances. Surely this was an act of another competitor, trying to throw him off his game. There was no other explanation. Planes rarely malfunction. First things first. Gotta get his eyes out. Definitely first. And then, it's time to do what he does best. What's known about this? He has to know. "Bruiser. I need you to keep guard. We're being targeted, aren't we?"
Sorry I've been gone for so long. After the slowdown I thought this died........ Only for me to randomly check on this (it popped up as a most visited page on an old laptop of mine I hadn't been on in a while) and long and behold, it's still here! I'm about to e-mail you the sheet for Mathew Swift, will be posting IC soon. Again, sorry for not posting for so long. Do you need bruiser's sheet too? acecipherzero had e-mailed it to me. Expect the e-mail to be from: another_crockett@hotmail.com
2nd book of the Night Angel trilogy...................... WE HAVE A BRENT WEEKS FAN!!!! ALL SHALL REJOICE!!! Ahem. Have you by chance read any of his lightbringer series of books (specifically the new book, the Blinding Knife)? If so how was it? Edit: Btw, Ace, did you get my PM? I know you've been busy with that IRL disease, just wanted to make sure you got it ;)

1. Lite breakfasts. Got be quick and get moving! 2. He's not too picky. Just from whatever is usually available (usually bottle)3. He'd probably just take the first available person to ship with him. 4. June 22 5. Because you can? :P
Matthew has quite a bit of trouble sleeping at first. He's thinking about the war, the challenges ahead of them, and his servant. He hadn't expected such a lively one, but in truth, he was glad. He knew it'd push him to do his best. He had to. Sleep finally found him, and so he rested, dreaming about some new spell that had just come to him. If only he could actually remember his dreams, it'd actually be useful.
It felt good to be home. Getting to see his wife, and to relax for a second sounded wonderful to him. However, he should of known better. He really should of. As soon as [Servants name] finishes, he just sighs. "[servants name], that was my wife, not a servant. I'd prefer it if we didn't treat her as a servant." "Anyways, here, lets head this way." He says, leading her to one of the back rooms of the apartment. OOC: Rest is revealed in a PM.
Matthew just grins at the last part. He wasn't going to try and correct her about the generals part, instead just enjoying the drive as the head back to the town. The wind in his face, and the last rays of the sun, it was an all too perfect day for a drive. Still, he guides her back to his place. "I think you'll enjoy the place. It has a very nice view of the city."
Even Matthew enjoyed it for a little bit. The ride, the speed, it was everything he enjoyed about the car. But everything must come to an end at some point. "[SERVANT NAME], I know you're really enjoying yourself, but perhaps we should get back to our place? So we can start planning out our conquest of this war?" He asks. He figures it was her goal to dominate the enemies and claim the land, so perhaps this would get her to go to their place.
At first Matthew is surprised. But then he realizes what might happen if Bruiser drives his car. She may have an idea of how to drive it, but if she....... she...... Wrecks my car, then..... Well, may the heavens have mercy on her. Matthew takes a deep breath before saying anything. "Bruiser, did you forget you don't know the way? And that you'll stand out? Not that I don't enjoy how spirited you are, but many people in this day of age are not as energetic or spirited as you are, meaning you'd stand out quite easily. I'll drive for now, and show you around the city for a bit after we have had a chance to prepare for this war. Afterwards you can drive if you show me that I can trust you driving; as it is right now I know next to nothing about you and your abilities, let alone your driving abilities. Ok?" He says, and then with a very quick motion turns off the car and takes the keys. He has a grin on his face, like all the other times, only this time, it's very easy to tell it's forced. "For now, I WILL drive and take us back to my place. You are excited to see this place aren't you? It has quite the view." He asks, hoping this would tempt her more than driving HIS car.
"Well, we don't have palanquins in these times. However, I do think I possess something you will greatly appreciate. I just ask that you be careful in it, it was quite expensive......." He says, with a grin on his face. No matter how many times he drove it, he still loved his vehicle! The wind hitting his face, the gentle warmth of the sun as he drove down the highway...... Anyway, he turns around towards the door and opens it. Instead of heading straight down, however, he holds the door and gestures at his servant. "However, I must insist ladies first." As they walk down, he leads her to his car, the finest one he possessed. Sure, he had another almost the same, but nothing could match this fine beauty. He proceeds to open the door for Bruiser and gestures for her to sit in it. "We will be traveling in this beauty! I just ask that you please wear your seat belt, as I don't feel like dealing with the police." He says, a wide grin on his face. Perhaps she'll enjoy it more than his wife. She never had the passion for vehicles he had, even though both of them loved technology!
"You won't let me down, will you?" He says, and proceeds to smack his hand to his face is frustration. Although if he was an onlooker, he can't say he wouldn't be rolling on the floor laughing right about now at his own situation. "Anyway, its in that direction" he says as he points in a direction. "Its not a fortress, since we can't stand out too much, and I already stand out anyway. A lot of people unfortunately know my name. Do you mind travelling in spirit form, at least until we get there? I don't want others seeing your form quite yet? It'd be nice if we can catch at least a few people off guard. "
Matthew grins at this. He had gotten a live one for his servant. "Well, mainly to learn more about magic! Yeah, bringing honor to my family is another reason, but not my main one. I just want to know everything there is for the magics I specialize in, and surpass all in those fields!"
"Well, I've finished erasing the seal. Ready to go? My place isn't too far from here, although we have a lot of preparing to do." He says with a sigh. He was not looking forward to tonight, probably would have to take an all-nigher to finish his preparations!

OOC: Sorry for the late reply, I have to go to bed early since I have to wake up early. Matthew is surprised by this! Surely he didn't expect to have such a bold character as a servant. Sure, it wasn't the class he was hoping for, but after thinking about it he realizes this could be for the better! This class would surely be useful, especially with his abilities! But he quickly recovers. "Yes, I am. My name is Matthew Swift. As soon as week clean up these marks we'll get going! We have a lot of things to accomplish ahead of us. And if there's anything you need, just let me know, I'm sure we could get it." He says, making a quick but warm smile at his servant before starting to splash water over the marks. He was thankful that it hadn't rained that day, he would of had to gone elsewhere for the ritual! "So tell me, what do you hope to get out of this war?"
