This was his new life and he would easily accept it, quicker than he was to accept his past life. Just like the Phoenix; Jeremiah was reborn a new man both in mind and spirit. Whatever challenges he faced from now on would determine the man he would become in the future but for now he was a lost soul - at least part of him was. Jeremiah had been up since last night, allowing his mind to drift in the haunted forests. A dangerous place indeed for someone as young as him especially since his mind was so unstable as is yet he was able to endure his time within the forest. If it hadn't been for Bennu he probably would have gone totally crazy by this morning.

With Samehada on his back, his black snapped boots and his usual light jacket he was ready to get into whatever heinous crime they would be participating in today. "They" referring to him and his new partner Vance, of course. The Savannian was the new blood of the guild and already his name and presence has turned quite a few heads in the guild. His goal wasn't to bring attention to himself, but if he did so in the process of achieving power so be it. Everything had a purpose. After his time spent in the forest he remembered he was to meet Vance at a certain place for them to take his job so he wasted no time in getting there after he was done.

There he stood on the rooftop of a building across from the street light that Vance stood soon approached. The new Phantom was anxious to see just what the job enlisted. Although he wasn't a sadistic killer like many in the guild, he would have no problem slaughtering someone. Everything had a purpose.

Jeremiah leaped down from the building and made his way over towards Vance. "Took you long enough." and a nod was his greeting.

Despite the winter temperatures being below twenty degrees, Jeremiah was pretty warm because of his magical capabilities, but he noticed that Vance didn't once wince at the cold temperatures either. Perhaps Vance was a a fire mage? An ice mage could as well be an option but it could also be many other things but now wasn't the time to try and decipher his ally's powers. If it was one thing that Jeremiah learned on his own, it was always to know as much as possible. It may have just been easier to ask Vane himself how he could take the weather so easily but after a few seconds Miah no longer cared and the thought became nothing but an unsolved mystery. The taller man told Ali how he needed to clean his teeth in response to why he took so long before cracking a grin, revealing his pretty white teeth. As a kid Jeremiah was rebellious towards his mother when it came to cleaning himself in general. Whether it was something as simple as washing his hands, or taking a shower he simply did not want so he would not do so. It usually took his father to explain to him that cleanliness was next to godliness for him to want to be clean but as he grew up that problem was no longer even a problem. Boys will be boys right? Whatever the hell that meant...

Through the dark frozen streets of Oak both mages walked until Vance stopped at a door. The home it belonged to was pretty damn huge and light music could be heard in the background. Jeremiah didn't know exactly what the hell was going on but again, this was something he just couldn't bring himself to care about. Even when Vance knocked on the door and it was answered by some dude followed by a girl in a nightgown who seemed to be too young for him, he hardly cared. Miah wasn't a completely cold hearted bastard yet, so he did force himself to look away as the to dudes spoke. Samehada itched on his back as the man spoke to Vance saying that it's been a while since he needed Phantom Lords help. The Phoenix mage didn't need to look in the man's direction to listen, instead he looked to his left, waiting for the two to do whatever to get this show on the road.

All that needed to be done was the exchange; the job page for files. Interesting. Frankie didn't take long after that. He closed the door for  breif moment before opening it and handing them the files. The girl was still there and just when Jeremiah turned his head she seemed to be trying to make eye contact. The girl seemed to have wanted him to see her so bad at the moment and who was Jeremiah to take away what was probably the only thing she wanted that night (besides her innocence maybe?) The young Phantom looked the girl directly in her eyes. His empty gold orbs meeting with her emerald eyes momentarily before her boyfriend spoke.

Seems he was interested in Jeremiah and offered him a position in his lil crew or whatever. "I'll keep that in mind." Turning he walked beside Vance who looked at the files before giving them to Jeremiah to look over. Apparently they were to follow two dudes, but the files didn't exactly say why, though for the final time Jeremiah did not really give a shit, he wanted the money and experience. This task did seem to require some stealth though which he had no experience in. Great time to learn. The first thing they needed to do was find the dudes and according to the files these dudes were targeting 3 stores. Jeremiah could easily use his Phoenix vision to scout the area since it gave him visual abilities equal to that of an eagle but he wondered if he really needed to do all of that for such a pretty simple task. "Hm." Quickly Jeremiah transformed into a humanoid figure that stood at 9 feet. His hair, nails, and everything about him changed in almost an instant. The transformation was easier to do ever since Bennu's return, but now Bennu was trying to force his way to stay however the ex Fairy would easily fight it. He scoped the area quickly before seeing two figured roughly 50 meters by the "Weapons shop." He blatantly stated as he changed back into his normal being.

Allowing Bennu to Take over usually never ended well thanks to the beast's sadistic mindset. When he was a mage of Fairy Tail he would try so hard to keep the spirit under control when he needed to utilize his abilities Things have changed since then. Using his magic was harder before but now...now it was becoming easier than ever. It was to the point where he didn't need to speak to Bennu in order to change -he just gently tapped into the energy within himself and boom, instant transformation. Although his spirit had only returned, Jeremiah had been thinking thoroughly about changing...for good. On his travels around Fiore during his search for S.O.F.K he heard things about people undergoing permanent transformations. People have turned into demons, vampires and other naturally powerful entities. The most powerful he found to be dark in nature but he wasn't sure if he was ready to permanently give up his spirit. After losing Bennu once, he couldn't imagine losing him again.

Vance complimented the young fire mage on using his abilities so efficiently. With a nod, the Savannian thanked his partner and watched as he jogged into an alleyway. Jeremiah waited, he knew the enemies weren't that way so he was sure the Phantom Lord mage was doing something productive. Not long after he vanished, he revealed himself from the dark alleyway baring a pipe. Miah couldn't help but smirk. This guy planned on not using his magic the entire time? Interesting. After Vance recovered the pipe the two vanished into the shadows, eventually catching up their targets in time to see them man-handling the weapon shop owner. Little did these two bafoons know that they'd either be killed or die from sheer fear when the two mages approached them, he wondered which it would be. Vance nodded at Jeremiah, signifying that he would enter the shop. The two targets were on the move and since The Phoenix bearer wasn't quite the talker he decided quickly that it'd be best for him to keep an eye on who they were actually after.

Building hopping was sort of Jeremiah's specialty. He often liked feeling in control of his own life so by seeing the world beneath him in a way he was doing just that, plus it was an efficient method if he wanted to catch a bitch lackin'. The dark jacket flapped loghtly in the wind as Ali propelled himself about 10 feet into the air, grappling window hedges and swiftly climbing up. Just in time, he was able to see his targets moving forward pretty fast within the dark streets of Oak town. Their black clothing and top hats gave them the ability to blend in though they wouldn't be able to leave his focused vision that easily. There he stood atop the building with his arms crossed, waiting for Vance to finish doing whatever needed to be done in the shop. Not only did he look forward though, occasionally he did look behind himself just to be sure that there wasn't anyone else following them because you could never be too safe.

Soon enough Vance exited the shop and nodded at Jeremiah from below before moving forward and continuing to track their enemies. Miah would be moving from roof to roof never once losing balance or losing the two men from his point of view.

The two ran through the dark town known as Oak, keeping their sounds to a minimum and remaining under the radar as they began to come within range of their targets. Jeremiah noticing them, stopped and crouched while on the roof of a random store. At this time the store was closed, but the store across the street wasn't. That's where their targets would be. The two cloaked men entered the Armory shop quickly and began to terrorize the girl inside. It was proabbly never a good thing to have a woman be the only person working a store or stand after hours unless she was a mage. Not because women weren't capable of handling such a task, but because the world they lived in today usually targeted women. Jeremiah frowned as he was forced to watch the two men hurt her, grabbing her by her hair bullying her as she began to shout for them to stop. Soon tears would run down her cheeks and it was then that Jeremiah couldn't take it anymore. Watching something like that pissed him off but all he could do was clench his fists. It was final, when he finally got to these two disgusting, poor excuses of men he would kill them no questions asked.

The men didn't take long in the shop. They said a few words and even slapped the girl before leaving her bruised and helpless.  Despicable. At first Jeremiah thought Vance would be the one to enter the shop and do what he had to do just like he did with the last store, he was leading the mission after all. However, the man simply looked up at Jeremiah and pointed for him to enter the shop this time. When Vance looked up it made Jeremiah remember how he easily knew that the young Phantom was on a roof, he didn't even have to scout for him first. Intuition maybe? Or was it his magic? The Savannian didn't think about it too much right now he had a job to do. Nodding he leaped down from the building much like he did when he met his partner earlier and entered the shop with Samehada on his back.

When he entered he saw the girl on her knees, struggling to get up and crying. Jeremiah was usually gifted with women, all he had to do was give a simple glance and if he wanted to he would be in their panties by the end of their meeting. This poor girl looked at him differently. She looked scared and trembled as Jeremiah walked towards. He assured her that it was okay before helping her up. He asked her if she was okay but she only responded with a nod. Unfortunately Jeremiah didn't have time to attend to whatever wounds she had so he simply told her that she didn't have to worry, he'd keep her safe. After that he left the armor shop and looked t Vance. He didn't know if he would have to use his form again to track the men or not considering they were out of sight.

"Did we lose em?"

It was time for the grand finale. Vane replied by saying there these men were only a little up ahead so Jeremiah took it that Vance knew where to go. The young mage nodded and followed his superior sprinting through the streets of Oak. The man before Jeremiah was fast, but luckily Jeremiah was able to keep up. All and all him and the man were around the same speed. Taking note of that mentally was important for the Savannian, it was always good to be one step ahead somehow.

The girl back at the shop crossed his mind just before he arrived at the potion place. He worried if she would be okay alone by herself, not because he actually cared for her personally, but he could never disrespect a woman. It was like his whole demeanor changed around them. He had already promised himself that he would both hurt the men who did that to her and come back to check on her. He hadn't felt the need to have sexual relations, he had goals that waited to be accomplished, the last thing he wanted to do was waste time on someone who didn't matter in moving closer towards his dream.

It really was odd. It was his first day doing an actual dark job and he felt more like a hero than he ever did in Fairy Tail. This mission alone would bring Jeremiah to a lesson of course, he would just have to figure it out later when he could self reflect. When he was in Fairy Tail all he'd ever do was little job like helping with a block party or some soft shit. There was no emphasis on simply overpowering your enemy and destroying them. Everything was about love in a world of hatred. Everyone in Fairy Tail were fools, trapped in illusion that all they needed was each other. Power was everything in this world, and Jeremiah was able to see that now more than ever. Fairy Tail was childish. He was ready to ascend.

Jeremiah came into view of the men they'd been tracking down holding down another man and beating him up. Jeremiah didn't think of doing anything else when he saw his enemies. He zoomed forward towards the enemies, drawing Samehada as he dashed towards them, clearing approximately five meters. The man that held the store owner would get to feel the blade first. It was Jeremiah's first time using Samehada. His palms tingled as the mana was sucked from him. Jeremiah swung the blade upward from beside his left hip, slicing the man from his right hip all the way up to his left shoulder. When the man screamed out for help he moved towards him, a look of disgust on his face.

Jeremiah didn't worry about the other man, he figured Vance would deal with him. Jeremiah wasn't attacked from behind so he was sure the man was occupied by now.

"Pathetic."

The deed would be done soon enough. Vance had taken care of his opponent easily but Jeremiah didn't bother to watch. Instead he glared at the man below him before slamming his foot directly onto his chest. Damn he was getting so anxious he just couldn't wait to kill this guy however he wasn't sure if that was the correct thing to do. Last he remembered they were supposed to make sure these guys never came back...but then again...if he killed them they wouldn't be able to come back right? Jeremiah was furious from what they had recently done to the girl, not even the rest of the shop owners. Any man who could abuse a woman didn't deserve to live at all, that was his final judgement. The man under him tried to push the Phantom's foot of his chest, he would probably feel his ribcage pressed against his heart. It was obvious that he didn't want to die but sometimes that was the price you pay in the line of work that he did. Even in the line of work that Jeremiah did, death was the possible outcome. This young Savannian didn't plan on dying any time soon though. NOTHING, would come between him and his own personal goals. Jeremiah completely tuned out his partner since he was so focused on this man, but he heard when Vance warned these bafoons that if they caught them again, they'd die. Guess that meant he couldn't kill them. No...wait... that's not what that meant. Vance nodded at Jeremiah soon after, clearly giving the okay to do what he truly wanted to do.Nonchalantly Jeremiah gripped the hilt of his large blade with both hands before slicing the neck of the man under him, chopping off his entire head. He turned to te other man Vance had already basically destroyed. Today was his lucky day, he wouldn't die. He would be playing messenger though. Jeremiah slowly walked up to the man, Samehada being gripped tightly. It was amusing seeing these men fret before a teenager such as Jeremiah. It made him feel powerful. "Go tell whoever sent you what just happened here." He said with disgust. Jeremiah then put his blade away and trailed after Vance, eventually meeting him at Frankies home and collecting their pay. Mission complete.
