Anei had finally gotten to the temple. But it seemed it was an utter war zone. She couldn't believe how much bloodshed she saw.. People were literally falling out of the windows in droves as the two opposing factions were waging war on each other. She felt sad. But knew that she was the only one that could truly stop it.

Flapping her wings to move higher, as a light nearly exposed her, Anei looked to find that certain ledge. After circling the temple a few times, Anei found the ledge in her vision. She landed as best as she could and picked the vial up. Replacing it with the fake and was about to fly off when a bullet hit her in the shoulder. She nearly cried out as she came into eye contact with a gunner. It was of the Ares army and she knew that he wasn't about to let her fly off... Good thing he couldn't see her all that well. But a call for a light was all she needed to be found out.

Anei feel off of the ledge and flapped her wings as hard as she could. Feeling the wind from multiple gun shots, as she finally caught a wind and was flying away. Her Shoulder bleeding profusely as she covered it. She couldn't keep the altitude and she knew she was going to be hunted down now for whatever she had. That gunner wasn't an idiot. He had seen that she could fly and had been wearing gold and white clothes.. that now the shoulder was stained with blood. She wouldn't be hard to miss on the ground.. But he never knew that Anei was in fact a master illusionist.. but the gunshot and blood would be hard to mask due to the smell it gave off...

After a good half mile or five minutes of flight, Anei started to loose altitude and finally landed, hard sadly, as she began to run. She needed to hide and hide fast... But where? Anei had never been to this city and didn't know any hiding spots... She was in a bind and knew for a fact that time was not on her side.. 'I sure wish I had left a bit more information...' Anei thought as she ran through the darkened streets. Turning away and using whatever fleeting powers she had as she kept loosing blood. She couldn't leave a trail of her scent right to the ship... She needed to get somewhere and clean off the blood and tie up her wound... It was painful. She honestly never knew that they'd have gunners hiding in the upper wings...

Anei kept running and finally found a small crevice in a wall and slipped in. She could hear men in armor running around. Screaming that they had to find her... she knew that she was in danger and wished that she had her 'Fathers' or Artoise and Elcid there now... But she knew that Elcid was still hurt... and she really didn't want Artoise to confront his own people just yet.. It would be a hard thing for him. Or so she thought... She really didn't know either as much as she liked yet. She just hoped she would be able to return to the ship before the sun rised in the East...
