2007-05-18 [Cupboard*Full*O f*Malice]: bends down and searches for signs of where they wen~

2007-05-18 [Silver Moon]: *Looks like they went to the tower's grounds*

2007-05-18 [Cupboard*Full*O f*Malice]: ~he heads twards the grounds followed by grzzlat and vashik~

2007-05-18 [Xeroh Kanoe]: Ryu glares at them as they leave. "Jerk wad..."

2007-05-19 [Silver Moon]: *hears some commotion*

2007-06-14 [Ravendust]: Raven ran into the woods quickly after leaving Fox with Star.

2007-06-14 [Silver Moon]: A cloaked figure was surrounded by several cloaked figures. The cloaked figure clutched her side, and you notice it is bleeding badly

2007-06-14 [Ravendust]: "Hey!" Raven shouted, making her way over to them.

2007-06-14 [Silver Moon]: The figures turned on them and shot bolts of lightning at her.

2007-06-14 [Ravendust]: "Hey!" Raven said, ducking and rolling to the side, "That's dangerous, you know!"

2007-06-14 [Silver Moon]: "Stay out of this girl." One of the men snarled.

2007-06-14 [Ravendust]: "I've been given no reason to stay out of anything." Raven growled, standing and brushing the dirt from her knees.

2007-06-14 [Silver Moon]: "This girl is wanted for treason, you will stand aside or you will die."

2007-06-14 [Ravendust]: "What treason do you speak of?" Raven growled, crossing her arms.

2007-06-14 [Silver Moon]: "Treason against the warlord."

2007-06-14 [Ravendust]: "That doesn't say much."

2007-06-14 [Lirerial]: *Zataria walks out from the grounds followed by Saverad and Phuaraun, she glances towards the people at the mention of the Warlord*

2007-06-15 [Silver Moon]: The cloaked figure hisses in pain and andger. "They killed my spider.." Zataria and Pharaun realize her vioce is familiar.

2007-06-15 [Ravendust]: "Spider?" Raven blinked in mild surprise.

2007-06-15 [Lirerial]: *blinks and tenses* spider? *she trys to remember where she's heard it before*

2007-06-15 [Silver Moon]: One of the men backhanded the cloaked figure and she spraled to the ground. her hood flew of to reveal a young female drow (Zataria and Pharuan reckignize her as being Zarie)

2007-06-15 [Lirerial]: *she snarls in anger* leave her ALONE!!!!

2007-06-15 [Ravendust]: "Hey!" Raven shouted, shoving them aside as she moved between them and the woman, "I won't allow that."

2007-06-15 [Lirerial]: *comes up to stand behind the figures, her shadows start to rise* what did she do? *says angrily*

2007-06-15 [Silver Moon]: "She attempted to kill the warlord." One of the men snarled.

Zarie groaned but went silent

2007-06-15 [Lirerial]: what?! *she pales, and looks torn*

2007-06-15 [Ravendust]: "Well, he deserved it I'm sure." Raven replied, brandishing her fists, "Just try and go through me."

2007-06-15 [Lirerial]: *looks helpless, as her shadows fall and she takes a couple of steps back*

2007-06-15 [Silver Moon]: "If you were wise you would leave too girl." The man said to Raven.

2007-06-15 [Lirerial]: *her face hardened and she glanced sharply at the figure who had spoken* Don't kill the traitor...

2007-06-15 [Silver Moon]: "Why should we spare her?"

2007-06-15 [Ravendust]: "I won't go anywhere. I've stated before- he deserves death." Raven replied evenly, "If you were wise, you would back down..."

2007-06-15 [Silver Moon]: "What's a little girl like you going to do against us?" One of the men asked drawing a sword.

2007-06-15 [Ravendust]: Raven cracked her knuckles, "That move is a mistake." She warned.

2007-06-15 [Lirerial]: *smiles coldly, and quirks an eyebrow* number one *talks to Raven* The warlord already is death...and two..*glances at the figures* back off...

2007-06-15 [Silver Moon]: "We have orders to kill the triator and anyone who interferes."

2007-06-15 [Lirerial]: and who gave these orders?

2007-06-15 [Ravendust]: "You can try, but you'll fail." Raven replied.

2007-06-15 [Silver Moon]: "The warlord issued the orders."

The men watched Raven skeptically. "Are you wanting death?"

2007-06-15 [Ravendust]: "I've no fear of your swords."

2007-06-15 [Silver Moon]: "You're a fool girl."

2007-06-15 [Ravendust]: "Try me." Raven growled.

2007-06-15 [Silver Moon]: "Take the prisoner to the warlord while I deal with this girl." One of the men barked, as he came toward's Raven.

Several other men made a grab for Zarie

2007-06-15 [Ravendust]: "No you don't!" Raven shouted, turning quickly and striking each one a forceful blow, sending them pivoting backwards.

2007-06-15 [Silver Moon]: She is struck in the side by a bolt of lightning, the pain feels terrible

2007-06-15 [Ravendust]: Raven winced at the pain but forced herself to stand straighter, "Who did that?" She growled.

2007-06-15 [Silver Moon]: The men grinned evilly

2007-06-15 [Ravendust]: "Well, you're about to get a mouthful of loose teeth!" Raven said, clenching her fists.

2007-06-15 [Lirerial]: *watches expressionless*

2007-06-15 [Cupboard*Full*O f*Malice]: ~pharaun finlly snaps out of his stunned silence and steps forward an eerie calm coming over him as he spoke "plesase step down,girl~he said looking to raven~this fight is not yours

2007-06-15 [Lirerial]: *glances at him in slight relief* Finally....

2007-06-16 [Ravendust]: "It's become my fight." Raven replied evenly, "Since they decided to attack."

2007-06-16 [Cupboard*Full*O f*Malice]: Pharaun kept that same eerie calm look about him"i do not need,nor want your help"he stated looking at Raven"you will only get in the way"

2007-06-16 [Lirerial]: *she glances at Raven* Unless you want to die as well you would move away..... *takes a couple of steps back herself*

2007-06-16 [Ravendust]: Raven looked back at him with an impassive face, "I should be saying that to you." She said, "I don't take lightly to being forced from a fight."

2007-06-16 [Cupboard*Full*O f*Malice]: "this is nott of your concern"

2007-06-16 [Ravendust]: "I gave them their options, and they made their decision- as have I." Raven replied cooly.

2007-06-17 [Lirerial]: *looks at her annoyed* its your life

2007-06-17 [Ravendust]: "I say the same to you." Raven said simply.

2007-06-17 [Lirerial]: *rolls her eyes then walks over to saverad, using her shadows she transports both of them to a high tree branch*

2007-06-17 [Silver Moon]: Saverad continues to watch. "I wonder why Death really wants her dead."

The men formed a tight circle around Zarie grinning wickedly. "Drow. You will die here.

Zarie let out a groan and was instantly kicked hard, in the side.

"Pharaun.." she moaned, but was kicked even harder, she let out a gasp of pain and than lay still.

2007-06-17 [Lirerial]: *Zataria flinches, and turns her face away, her breathing stops*

2007-06-17 [Silver Moon]: Saverad steadied her and looked concerned. "We can't get involved, this is Pharaun's fight.'

2007-06-17 [Lirerial]: *nodds* I know...*her face is slightly pale*

2007-06-17 [Silver Moon]: *hugs her close* "It will be alright."

2007-06-17 [Lirerial]: *hugs him back, hiding her face against him*

2007-06-17 [Silver Moon]: *gently rubs her back*

2007-06-17 [Ravendust]: "Stop hurting her!" Raven growled, lifting one of her attackers easily by his collar and throwing him over her shoulder.

2007-06-17 [Cupboard*Full*O f*Malice]: Pharaun pulled a small blue vial from his piwafwi whispering into it and tossing it forward causing it to burst and sending blues wisps of colder then ice air that freezes flesh on contact in all directions

2007-06-18 [Lirerial]: *presses closer to Saverad but lifts her head to watch*

2007-06-18 [Ravendust]: Raven moved back, out of the way if the exploding vial.

2007-06-20 [Bloody Remnant]: **************************************************************

*Kazuki finds a place in the trees to take cover and relax for the night*

2007-06-20 [Xeroh Kanoe]: "Damn, can't believe I lost him..." Ryu drops into a tree and writes this new information in his note book. "If I remember right...I fought him once before...but he called himself Tristan I think...interesting..."

2007-06-20 [Bloody Remnant]: *Kazuki wakes ans senses an entity near and it's close enough fo him to I.D.* what the hell? he followed me. i really don't feel like dealing with anyone right now. i think there's enough shadows around for it... * consintrating Kazuki forms a blanket of shadows that covers him. making it to when others look at where he is they see shadows instead of him. since he is already in a shadowed place he is harder to detect. if he were in brought day light others could see a cocoon looking thing of shadows. and thankas to the ring he was given he can hold it longer*

2007-06-20 [Lirerial]: *glances up sensing the use of shadows*

2007-06-20 [Xeroh Kanoe]: Ryu senses this too. "Could it be...? Naw, this is limited control...but what is it..."

2007-06-20 [Lirerial]: *scents the air and slowly moves higher into the tree peering around looking for the source*

2007-06-20 [Bloody Remnant]: *the shadows burst and return to their natural place. Kazuki released his hold over them* i was able to hold them longer. i'll need to wait before i use my abilities again. i need to regain my energy. this is as low as i'll let myself get. *he jumps from tree to tree and comes acroos a hammock. when he touches it he has a flashback and sees Trisitn laying on it. when it ends he get on it himself and starts to relax while he regains his energy*

2007-06-20 [Lirerial]: *her eyes narrow slightly as the shadow use ends, she gestures and a small shadow races out tracing the source, it finds and investigates the hammock*

2007-06-20 [Bloody Remnant]: "what the hell!?" *startled by what he saw he drew both swords and stands beside the hammock ready to attack*

2007-06-21 [Xeroh Kanoe]: Ryu watches Kazuki from a near-by tree and pulls out his bow and notches an arrow when Kazuki takes out his swords. "Wonder what's going on..."

2007-06-21 [Lirerial]: *the shadows speeds off and returns to Zataria, she stands and leaves quickly, finally reaching the hammock* are you the one who used the shadows?? *says questionedly*

2007-06-21 [Xeroh Kanoe]: "Zakir Bow!" In a flash of light the simple wooden bow is turned into something more intricate. Ryu fires off a bolt from the tree, the arrow hitting right at Zataria's feet. "I was."

2007-06-21 [Lirerial]: *whirls to face him* hmmmm...*looks thoughtful then glances at the arrow, quirks an eyebrow* playing with toys?

2007-06-21 [Xeroh Kanoe]: "This is a legendary weapon from my homeland. Fire off two bolts into any living thing and an electric current passes from arrow to arrow electrocuting anything in it's path." Ryu notches another arrow "But I've never exactly had a chance to check it out."

2007-06-21 [Lirerial]: *watches him thoughtfully* hmmmm...a battle? *says hopefully* Its been awhile since I've played

2007-06-21 [Xeroh Kanoe]: "I'm not looking for a fight, but if that's what you want " Ryu returns the bow to it's normal state and puts it a way pulling out a simple stick and a few chunks of metal, in another flash of light the stick and metal change into a long slim sword with an intricate hilt "I'm going to give you one hell of a battle." Ryu takes a sip out of his flask and gets into a battle stance.

2007-06-21 [Lirerial]: *grins darkly and holds out her hand, causing a black sword to form out of shadows, her eyes darken slightly as she poises lightly* perfect!!

2007-06-21 [Xeroh Kanoe]: "Neat trick. Watch mine." Ryu's normally blue eyes flash a bright green and suddenly the wind wraps around him, when the wind finally dissipates Ryu's wearing red shingled gauntlets and greaves of the same kind with his large white wings spread wide. "Let's get this party started!" Ryu rushes at Zataria with an unusual amount of speed.

2007-06-21 [Bloody Remnant]: *Kazuki slowly backs to the edge of the branch the hammock is in, still holding his swords ready fro an attack* while these two are fighting i can leave. *Kazuki jumps into a back flip and while in the air sheathes both swords and lands on the ground bellow than walks away with a hand still on trisitn's sword*

2007-06-21 [Lirerial]: *laughs, moving with inhuman speed as she brings her sword ripping upward, black armor forming from her shadows around her as she moves*

2007-06-21 [Xeroh Kanoe]: Ryu blocks the attack and stabs at a hole in the armor, the opal on the hilt giving off a faint glow. I wander if I should use that... Ryu thinks then grins Yeah...

2007-06-21 [Bloody Remnant]: *Kazuki stops for a moment and looks back at the two* hhmm. dang it Trisitn. why'd you have to comunicate and become visable to me only? *Kazuki starts to watch the two*

2007-06-21 [Lirerial]: *jumps back, throwing two daggers as she moves, one hits a tree and dissolves into the shadow, she chuckles* very good!

2007-06-21 [Xeroh Kanoe]: Ryu barely blocks the second one with his sword, the dagger bouncing off and hits a tree. "Trained by the best." Suddenly Ryu moves so fast that the eyes can't follow and comes up behind Zataria, suddenly he licks his finger and sticks it into her ear "Wet willy!!" After that Ryu jumps back wards laughing. "What can I say? I like to have fun."

2007-06-21 [Lirerial]: *shakes her head, she laughs as well* finally....some who can laugh....*a dagger shoots towards him from the shadows behind him*

2007-06-21 [Bloody Remnant]: good point Tristin. if he can afford to play when battling he could be a much better fighter if he wanted to.

2007-06-21 [Xeroh Kanoe]: Ryu moves, but the dagger catches him on the side causing a small but deep cut just below the ribs. "Damn, I got careless..."

2007-06-21 [Bloody Remnant]: "Trisitn you better not." *Kazuki falls against a tree unconcious. then he stands up again, his eyes changed to a bright blue cat-like form* "time fro some assistance." *he jumps into the trees and draws his sword*

2007-06-21 [Xeroh Kanoe]: Ryu's sensitive ears pick up Kazuki "This is our fight, I'm sure neither of us needs assistance." Ryu yells into the trees. At the same time he throws up a barrier around the two fighters.

2007-06-21 [Lirerial]: *she changes into her hyrbrid forms and snarls angrily in Kazuki's direction* Stay back! *her voice sounds hoarse, meanwhile the dagger wound starts to darken as poison sets in, she grins, baring sharp teeth*

2007-06-21 [Xeroh Kanoe]: Ryu drops to one knee clutching his side, his barrier faltering. "I gotta do something about this wound..." Ryu quickly draws an alchemical circle with his blood over the wound, "Hidden Skill #42! Purification!" The seal gives off a flash of light and the poisen vanishes from the wound.

2007-06-21 [Lirerial]: *bares her teeth in a smile, shifting back to full human form* very, very good....*stands straight with her sword held ready*

2007-06-21 [Xeroh Kanoe]: Ryu also stands and wraps the wound with a bandage. "Very seldom do I have to use that skill, and it drains the hell out of me." Ryu's armor and wings fade away. "So we shall have to continue this some other time." Ryu jumps into a near by tree and vanishes among the leaves.

2007-06-21 [Lirerial]: *looks slightly annoyed as her sword dissolves into shadows once again, and she starts to head back*

2007-06-21 [Bloody Remnant]: *walks over to a puddle of Ryu's poisoned blood and examines it* clever girl. shadow poisoning. to think if she knew we used the shadows this might have been our blood. *he puts some into a vile and puts the vile into his pack* we'll have to keep this with us. i may prove useful. *goes over to the hammock and lies down on it. seconds after he does that he goes unconcious, then wakes, his eyes returned to normal their normal state* "Trisitn i told you not to do that...you could to help it...fine thenn next time tell me when you plan to do it. last time you did it we were in town and you made me levitate."

2007-06-21 [Ravendust]: As the vial exploded and Raven dove back, she waved her hand towards the hooded woman whom had initially been attacked, engulfing her in a shield of shadows to protect her from the explosion.

2007-06-21 [Lirerial]: *Zataria arrives back at the tree, she qickly climbs back to her vantage point her armor dissolving as she goes*

2007-06-21 [Bloody Remnant]: *Kazuki looks at her* " what do you want?" *he places a hand on Trisitn's sword*

2007-06-21 [Lirerial]: *watches him in surprise*hmmmm...wrong tree...*laughs to herself* put away your toy...*scents the air and her eyes darken* do you..by any chance have blood close to you? *smiles coldly*

2007-06-22 [Bloody Remnant]: *Kazuki looks at the puddle* "there is some there, andi think i'll keep my hand on my sword." *looks back at her*

2007-06-22 [Lirerial]: *smiles* as you wish... *dips her finger into the blood and tastes it* oh..I see...this is blood from my shadow poisoning...*grins, licking the rest of her finger* hmmm...do you know who that guy was??

2007-06-22 [Bloody Remnant]: "said his name was Ryu Kiris."

2007-06-22 [Lirerial]: *grins and nodds* thank you.... *her eyes darken to a pitch black* I might have to hunt him down...he tastes remarkably good...*glances at him and bares her teeth* you wouldn't happen to know if you taste good would you??

2007-06-22 [Xeroh Kanoe]: "Looks like I'm in trouble..." Ryu says 200 yards away, the circle under his palm causing the wind to carry the words of the two of them.

2007-06-22 [Lirerial]: *breathes deeply, as she dips her finger once more, she quietly licks it clean*

2007-06-22 [Bloody Remnant]: *firmly grips the hilt of the sword* if something happens then you can but not right now Trisitn. she's too close for you to do it. "no, i wouldn't."

2007-06-22 [Lirerial]: *smiles coldly showing pointed canines* hmmm....would you care to play??

2007-06-22 [Bloody Remnant]: *Kazuki rolls a smoke capsule out from under his shoe then steps on it. a thick black smoke suuround him and when it clears he's gone* Tristin now! *Kazuki goes unconcious for a sec then awakens as Trisitn, his eyes in their bright blue cat-like form. he activates the pressure switch in his right bracer and a blade slips out of a slit on the top of the bracer* "hm, it's good being back." *he pulls a dagger from the side of his leg and then jumps to another branch not 30 yards from his opponent* "let's dance."

2007-06-22 [Lirerial]: *crouches slightly, a dagger forming from shadows inher hand, her eyes darken to a pitch black* yes..lets

2007-06-22 [Xeroh Kanoe]: Ryu watches from near by. "Finally I can just sit back and watch a fight..."

2007-06-23 [Bloody Remnant]: *telepathicaly speaks to Ryu* don't get too cozy. i may need you to jump in if we get hurt. *Trisitn closes his eyes and lets his conciousness expand around himself allowing him to sense even the smallest movment. his arms rest at his side and the dagger in his left hand is held with a firm grip and a slight breeze blows by making his hair flow to the side in the air currents*

2007-06-23 [Xeroh Kanoe]: Don't worry, the winds are on your side. Ryu speaks back, e wind picking up.

2007-06-23 [Lirerial]: *scents the air blowing and grins as she recognizes the scent, her eyes narrow as she feels the oncoming power, she gestures slightly causing her shadows to begin moving in a slow rotation around them*

2007-06-23 [Ravendust]: When things settled down, Raven released her barrier, ignoring the pain in her side brought on by an earlier attack. She looked about uneasily, feeling a strange rise in the wind, as well as some unknown power nearby.

2007-06-23 [Bloody Remnant]: *Tristin smirks* "whenever you're ready." *he still has his eyes closed and looks to be a some sort of meditation, his consiousness extended all around him*

2007-06-23 [Lirerial]: *she throws the dagger, another forming as it leaves her hand, the shadows whirl faster, developing spikes as they move* of course....*she steps back and dissolves into the shadows*

2007-06-24 [Bloody Remnant]: *sencing the dagger and knowing where it is aimed to hit he moves his left hand up and the dagger hits his which blocked it from hitting his heart, her dagger then bounced off it and stuck into the branch he was standing on* "aiming for the heart this soon? you don't mess around do you?" *Trisitn opens eyes while putting his dagger away then pulls out her daggar from the branch* "quite skilled at crafting these aren't you?" *he senses something*

2007-06-24 [Lirerial]: *she laughs cruely but it comes from all around* not just the heart...any place will do..for my purposes...*you hear a cold chuckle as the daggerdissolvesfrom your hand and joins the spiraling shadows* thank you....

2007-06-24 [Xeroh Kanoe]: Ryu unleashes a bolt from his bow hitting the dagger that was meant to delve into the shadows. "Not this time..." Lightning strikes the arrow causing the dagger to shatter.

2007-06-24 [Lirerial]: *Ryu hears a whisper in his left ear*there you are...hmmm...*he feels a sharp knick in the back of his head as a shadow cuts into his skin and steals a sample of blood* thank you...*he feels her presence leave quickly, you see her step out from the shadows several trees away, she's holding a red colored shadow that drips blood into her mouth* wonderfully good....*she smiles coldly* you are very powerful..it makes you taste..so good

2007-06-24 [Bloody Remnant]: "vampiric shadow walker. great." *metally says to Ryu* please tell me i'm not the only one out of the two of us that knows how to beat a shadow walker. *Trisitn pulls out the small cross bow that he had in a pouch in his pack and arms it with a dart with an inscription on it*

2007-06-24 [Lirerial]: *laughs coldly, and licks the last drop of blood from her lips*a vampire? *raises an eyebrow* my, my, someone knows their creatures....*smirks*

2007-06-24 [Bloody Remnant]: "and a shadow walker at that. you people are a pain. i was bitten by your kind before. let me shadow walk up until i was killed. luckily my clone here was still alive and now his body is a time share. he's still learning all what i am capable of. when he perfects his understanding he'll be able to keep me out if he wanted. he let's me take over since i have more experience with these things. like identifying my enemy and knowing their weakness." *he places his hand over the dart and the inscription begins to glow*

2007-06-24 [Lirerial]: *laughs once more* oh yes...but I'm afriad you have no experience with me....for you see....you're wrong...I am not a vampire...I'm one of a kind...*smirks, as her eyes darken to a pitch black with no white showing, her shadows move around her causing her hair to move smoothly*

2007-06-24 [Bloody Remnant]: "this dart isn't specified for vampires. in anycase enlighten me. what might you be?"

2007-06-24 [Lirerial]: *grins* I'll let you find out yourself...*she gestures and a dagger forms from the shadows*

2007-06-24 [Bloody Remnant]: *noticing the dagger forming he retracks the blade back into the bracer* oh boy, i hope Ryu knows how to handle thse kind of people. otherwise this could be difficult

2007-06-24 [Lirerial]: *she smiles calmly as she drops the dagger into the shadows, it vanishes and she imdeiately drops another that had formed in her hands* Tell me...what is your experience worth?

2007-06-24 [Bloody Remnant]: "depends on how badly it is needed, what i get in return for it, and what it is to be used for."

2007-06-24 [Lirerial]: *nodds* I see...what do you say we start for real? *stands and crouches slightly without a single weapon in her hands, her eyes glint strangely*

2007-06-24 [Bloody Remnant]: "you must really want my blood. eager to see if i tase good?" *he then takes the dart and pricks a finger letting his blood run down it and being to pool in his palm* "i'll let you now." *Tristin drinks the blood clean from his hand then seals the wound by charging it with kintetic energy then smirks as he says* "to be honest, it's not that bad. shame you wont be able to see for yourself."

2007-06-24 [Lirerial]: *laughs* oh no....see I can absorb a kind of power through blood *she shudders as the smell comes towards her, then charges with inhuman speed almost moving to fast to see*

2007-06-25 [Xeroh Kanoe]: Ryu pulls out the Demons Fang. "Get ready to feel the sting of the legendary Blade of Light." Ryu closes his eyes as he focuses all his energy into the gem on the hilt of his blade. "Hidden Skill #1! Shining Blade!" In a flash of light Ryu is completely clad in red armor, his wings a pure white, and the blade of his sword shimmering in the semi-darkness of the forest.

2007-06-25 [Lirerial]: *a black glow developes around her, as her sword forms in her hand, black flames burn the air behind it* light... *she blinks out of sight apearing behind him*

2007-06-25 [Bloody Remnant]: *Trisitn's body looks as if it was vaporized as he darts to another branch 20 yards from where he was* "you are fast...but the training i put myself through to be as fast as i am made me much quicker." *he places the dart with it's bloody tip back in the small crossbow and the inscription shines even brighter in reaction to the blood*

2007-06-25 [Lirerial]: *smiles coldly as a dagger shoots out at him from the shadows behind him* faster than me?? well...I'm waiting...

2007-06-25 [Cupboard*Full*O f*Malice]: [Grzzlat looked over hearing some commotion and realized Zataria was in trouble so he fflew over to her side with amazing peed considering his large bodie and opeed hi vulture like beak gnashing it twards the two who she was fightng]fun with mortal time[he laughed]

2007-06-25 [Lirerial]: *glances at him* hmmm...thanks for showing up....*mutters so only he can hear* I was starting to worry...

2007-06-25 [Cupboard*Full*O f*Malice]: [he laghs and gnashes his beak together and fleckes his muscles clenching and unclenching his clawed hands while running his long forked toungue across his sharp beak looking at the two men]so mortals,do you wish to die quickly,or do you prefer a slow painful death?

2007-06-25 [Lirerial]: *grins coldly* I'd enjoy hearing them scream....

2007-06-25 [Xeroh Kanoe]: Ryu closes his eyes, his energy level rising at an insane rate. The amount on energy begins to put a strain on his body "Graaaaah!" Suddenly Ryu's body is surrounded by a bright aura, the energy pouring from his body. Ryu opens his eye's, they've changed colors to a shinning golden. Ryu disappears with inhuman speed and appears behind Zataria and slashes at her back with the still glowing blade.

2007-06-25 [Lirerial]: *her shadows slow his attack enough that she is able to dogde somewhat, recieving a long but shallow cut on her back, she hisses in pain, while throwing another dagger* damn!

2007-06-25 [Xeroh Kanoe]: Ryu jumps into the air, the dagger missing easily. He stops gaining altitude once he clears the top of the trees. He closes his eyes and holds his hands up, his palms pointed towards the sky. Suddenly the aura manifests itself into a large glowing ball, illuminating the forest. "Bombardment of Light!" The ball splits into many and falls to earth heading straight towards Zataria.

2007-06-25 [Lirerial]: *stands straight and gestures to her shadows, causing them to form into a sphere around her and Grizzlat, the shadowsare so dark that they swallow the light that approaches them*

2007-06-25 [Xeroh Kanoe]: (Sorry, I got disconnected from my internet.) Ryu watches Zataria and senses the split in energy. So...there's someone else...one she wishes to protect... Ryu grins. We can use this to our advantage... The aura reappears.

2007-06-25 [Cupboard*Full*O f*Malice]: [grzzlat snarls with rage]dont do that again zataria,i dont need your protection[he laughed flexing his large clawed hands extending his large wings and hurtling his massive body into ryu and latching on in midair ripping at him with his beak]

2007-06-25 [Lirerial]: *smiles*of course... *she charges towards Kristin, blinking out ofsight and appearing behind him, she slashes and cuts a small gash into his leg, she smirks as she jumps back*

2007-06-26 [Xeroh Kanoe]: The aura forms a barrier around Ryu causing Grzzlat to fall back to the ground, the part of him that hit the barrier is covered in burns. "My suggestion is to not do that again." Ryu says in a voice not like his own as he glides down to earth.

2007-06-26 [Bloody Remnant]: *Trisitn speaks fron a couple branches away from her* "shouldn't you make sure the things you attack are living before you attack them? that was a decoy i set up when i first relocated from when you charged me." *the decoy turns back to it's priginal form, smoke that Trisitn held in his form, as the dagger remained in the air. Trisitn released the smoke letting it cloud around her* "might i sugjest you learn to mind your surroundings?"

2007-06-26 [Lirerial]: *snarls angrily, and starts to charge before coming to a complete halt, she closes her eyes and her shadows start to wirl around Tristin faster than ever, she grins coldly* and might I suggest you learn not to fall into a trap? I can feel that you are real, for my shadows are drawn to the beating hearts of my targets..*says coldly as her shadows form into a sphere* oh try and get out....you'll be hurt considerably....

2007-06-27 [Xeroh Kanoe]: Ryu senses the darkness and sends a small ball of light towards the swirling darkness, when it hits it causes a small hole. "She can control darkness better than I though..." Ryu sends two more balls of light causing a hole big enough for Tristan to escape through.

2007-06-27 [Lirerial]: *glances towards him agressively, her shadows quickly close over the hole, as more glide towards him* Stay back! *the shadows develope painful looking spikes with barbed points*

2007-06-27 [Xeroh Kanoe]: Ryu jumps between Tristan and the approaching shadows. When the shadows come into contact with the aura they vanish giving off a plume of black smoke. But unfortunately this put a strain on his energy, "Damn it..." Ryu says, dropping to one knee, the aura flickers and his eyes almost loose their golden color. But Ryu is able to maintain the power, breathing heavily Ryu stands. "You're stronger than you seem. But I've fought worse." Ryu says with a slight strain in his voice.

2007-06-27 [Lirerial]: *laughs* maybe..but see... my shadows are part of me...I don't loose energy when I fight with them....only one thing drains my power of them...*she smirks* and you don't have it... *she opens her hand to reveal a small black dagger* hmmm..this should be enough...*she walks towards him*

2007-06-27 [Cupboard*Full*O f*Malice]: [grzzlatlaughs as the burns on him dissapate instantly]im a demonfool,did you eally think fire would harm ME???[he said jumping up his claws growing to about a foot each and flames surround them as he comes down upon ryu slashing thro the aura]Missing: </b>

2007-06-27 [Xeroh Kanoe]: Ryu holds the Demon's Fang out in a defensive stance. Behind his back he holds the other half of the sword. "I would assume that the shadows are a part of you, just as the wind is a part of me." The wind picks up as he says this. "And it's not fire, it's light." Ryu easily blocks the claws.

2007-06-27 [Lirerial]: *chuckles* don't kill him completely please....or at least save me his blood...*her eyes narrow* winds...of course...*laughs once more* but wind cannot blow away shadows

2007-06-27 [Xeroh Kanoe]: "That may be, but the wind has always filled me with energy." The wind begins to howl through the trees, and suddenly the aura doubles in size with a greenish tint along the edge.

2007-06-27 [Cupboard*Full*O f*Malice]: ah thank you for the cool breeze[he charges ryu and dive a him and his wings sharpen as he dives at ryu veering off to the side and hitting him with his wing]

2007-06-27 [Lirerial]: *smiles softly* just as blood gives me my energy...*gesturesand a red colored shadow glides up* of course I prefer fresh to the stale stuff I store...*the shadows glides into her mouth and comes back out the color as the rest*

2007-06-27 [Xeroh Kanoe]: Ryu bends over backwards the wing flying over him by about an inch. He stabs up into the wing with the short half of his sword, he then swings Grzzlat around and slams him into the ground. Then Ryu sends a ball of light at the red colored shadow.

2007-06-27 [Cupboard*Full*O f*Malice]: [grzzlat continues into the ground as he is slammed digging through and then coming up from under ryu a hole opening underneath ryu surrounded by flames he grabs ryu and falls back down into the hole]

2007-06-27 [Xeroh Kanoe]: Ryu is unable to react fast enough, but a few feet from the rim he spreads his wings and is able to hold himself there. "Two against one isn't very fair..."

2007-06-27 [Cupboard*Full*O f*Malice]: i agree,zataria focus on the other mortal this ones fun to play with,hes stronger than i had thought[grzzlat snarled and twisted his bodt violently while still holding on to ryu tring todisloge him and pull him down]

2007-06-27 [Xeroh Kanoe]: Ryu drops another foot. "That's it..." Ryu is able to reach into his bag and pulls out a few pieces of wood. In a flash of light a staff forms in Ryu's hands. "Heheha, Gia's Staff." Suddenly the garnet begins to glow and spikes shoot from the earth surrounding them, one slices across Grzzlat's wrist causing him to let go. Ryu flies out of the hole and stays in the air. "Why don't you come join me in my territory?" The staff returns to it's original state and Ryu slides these materials back into his bag.

2007-06-27 [Cupboard*Full*O f*Malice]: [grzzlat laughs as his blood flowed from the wound]i hope none of that got on you[he said spreading his large scaly wings as the hole in the one heals over he flies up spinning as he goes gaining momentum as he crashes into ryu]

2007-06-27 [Xeroh Kanoe]: Ryu flies back spinning wildly. After a few yards Ryu is finally able to correct his flight path. "Damn it..." Ryu says, breathing heavily. The aura begins to flicker and finally vanishes, "Aw, shit..." Ryu says as he looses consciousness and falls back to the ground. With his last ounce of strength he disappears in a flash of light.

2007-06-27 [Lirerial]: *alertly watching over Tristin as well, her shadows growing thicker. as blue colored ones blend in, Tristin feels extreme pain as the blue shadows absorb his power by force*

2007-06-27 [Cupboard*Full*O f*Malice]: [grzzlat closes his wings and fals quickly to the ground with his talons down landing on the spot where he thought ryu should be,he shakes his head a little off balence from breaking the barrier he sniff around for ryu]what the......[he looks around confused]

2007-06-27 [Xeroh Kanoe]: Ryu watches from a near by branch barely able to keep his balance, his energy suppressed to barely anything. I should have learned my lesson with Shadow but noo, I just had to go and do it all over again... Ryu thinks to himself.

2007-06-27 [Lirerial]: *laughs quietly, as her shadows tell her where he's hiding, but stays silent*

2007-06-27 [Cupboard*Full*O f*Malice]: [grzzlat tries to sniff ut ryus power still shaking the cobwebs out of his head from the impact with the barrier]damn,hes gone[grzzlat says not sensing his power anywhere nearby]tricky little buggger

2007-06-27 [Xeroh Kanoe]: After a bit Ryu regains enough strength to jump to a different hiding spot. Ryu pulls out the Zakir Bow and notches an arrow, ready to fight at a moments notice.

2007-06-27 [Lirerial]: *lays back quietly soaking up power from Tristin, he starts look limp as his energy is drained*

2007-06-27 [Xeroh Kanoe]: I gotta help the kid but I risk giving off my location if I do...Damn it! Ryu thinks to himself.

2007-06-27 [Cupboard*Full*O f*Malice]: [grzzlat alks over to where tristain and zataria are]whered he go[he demanded angrily]

2007-06-27 [Lirerial]: *chuckles* let him go...he lost....*she yawns slightly, almost getting sleepy with the power*

2007-06-27 [Cupboard*Full*O f*Malice]: [he snarls angrily]hypocrate.......[he looks at tristain laying there and back at zataria]it looks like he lost to and yet you pursue?hypocrate[he chuckled]

2007-06-27 [Xeroh Kanoe]: Ryu suddenly gets an idea. He lets two arrows fly from his bow, one hitting Zataria just above her heart, the other hitting her just to bottom and right. "Lightning Strike!" Lightning strikes one of the arrows and sends an electrical current through her heart to the other arrow. "Now for part two..."L, it's your turn. "Transform!" The wind wraps around Ryu and when it dissipates a large red wolf stands where he was. The wolf drops from the tree and lands on Grzzlat's back and begins to tear at him with his claws.

2007-06-27 [Cupboard*Full*O f*Malice]: [grzzlat laughs as the wolfs claws dig fuirtlessly into the heavy armor like scales of his back and jumps up in the air spreading his wings spinning and coming back down back first landing on the olf]

2007-06-27 [Xeroh Kanoe]: L jumps into the air and rolls over, he lands back down on top of Grzzlat. L rolls from on top of him and jumps back growling at him.

2007-06-27 [Cupboard*Full*O f*Malice]: [he rools over and getting to his feet he look at the wolf laughing and walks over pulling the arrows from zataria the lightning doing little to affect his talons he looks back at the wolf]run along and take your freind[he says picking tristain up and tossin his limp form over to ryu]

2007-06-27 [Xeroh Kanoe]: Tristan's body begins to glow as energy is restored to his body. L growls at Grzzlat, but decides to leave so he heads towards the city.

2007-06-27 [Lirerial]: *she shudders, in shock* damn...*says faintly* I need blood...*passes out*

2007-06-27 [Cupboard*Full*O f*Malice]: [grzzlat bends down holding his arm over zatarias mouth and reopening the quickly healing wound on his wrist letting the blood flow over her mouth]

2007-06-27 [Lirerial]: *she wakesup... she drinks not letting a single drop fall* hmmm...spicy...

2007-06-27 [Cupboard*Full*O f*Malice]: [he as his wrist closed p]good to know,was it enough?

2007-06-27 [Lirerial]: *nodds slowly* yes.... *she stands and changes form, becoming a black wolf* I am eager to find that one with the arrows *she bares her teeth* I want to find out if he is a werewolf..or just gifted....*laughs, and turns to go* oh yes...please tell Saverad to call me if he needs me....he knows how

2007-07-08 [Fearathress]: Lenwe walks into the forest shaking his head thinking.
