Silky moonlight streamed through the trees down onto a fog laden valley. Comatose (Data) prowled through the dark out side watching. This wonderful world called Phantom's Whisper meaning there would always be a whisper of hope or faith or light, etc. had been taken over by a single silhouette, a shadow, a darkness which slowly damaged and kill all that this once had been. So far the only place left that it had not been able to grab was this misty valley where the moon always shone, Crystal Fantôme.
Now Comatose (Data) wondered if she needed help, she was usually a lone "wolf" persay... But now she felt she couldn't save this world by her self. She would try no matter what happened tho and no matter how many years.
She turned from the valley, hooded cloak flapping in the dark winds and ran into the forest...

Foxx walked through the forest, his perked in the air, expecting something to suddenly jump at him. The young fox hid behind a tree at the sound of some rustling not far away. He closed his paws and a soft wind started to blow.

Bumbling through the forest quite loudly while cursing under his breath Rosuto keeps crashing through the under growth. "God, can't friggin see, cause of that stupid brat, throwing sand in my eyes, what an awfull child." he says as he trips over a log and slams down on the other side letting out a loud string of curses, rubbing his eyes furiously. "When I find that kid's mother I'm going to give her a peice of my mind, raising her children to throw sand in other's eyes, sheesh, times are bad but not that bad." he adds on as he keeps trying to get the sand out.
-
~Much appreciation for the complement Sash~
Comatose slows for a moment, -hum-, goes under the cover of the trees and sets paw gently but firmly on the grown. She stands on two legs and covers herself more with the cloak. The wing rustles around. But she notices more of a sound and hides behind a tree looking around. She sees a red fox tail brushing a tree slightly. She listens for a mind and hears the mumbles of somethings thoughts. She spreads the cloak into wings and glides over so as to not make a sound and changes it back as she lands in front of the creature and brings out claws "Well hello there good monsieur, are you a friend or foe?"
-
Foxx heard some sounds, closer this time. He prepared himself but a hooded figure landed in front of him making him back away from the tree. The wind got slightly stronger.
"That depends..." he started "If you are a follower of Darkness, I fear that we will fight."
-
"Good, Good. First time in a long time I haven't had to fight the Darkness. Now young fox, what are you doing here? What's your name?" A noise from trees away and getting louder crashes through the silence. A white figure can be seen far a away. "What is it with so many noises today? Come come, answer me then we shall see if the next living creature is ready for us and if it will live to see tomorrow." She grabs foxx's paw and then grabs him. Comatose fly s him to a small dark valley that is known for evil not always being there. She pulls him to a tall tree. "Now answer."
-
Name: Richard Redvale
Nickname: Richy
Gender: Male
Species: Folf
Strengths: His dedication to his friends is unequal. He is also a masterful ranger and a sly and cunning mediator.
Weapon: A stringless bow that generates elemental arrows when a drawn motion is made. A longsword and parrying dagger as well.
Armor: He wears a strong black silk outfit and dark green cloak capable of resisting any and all cuts. Doesn't protect against crushing or smashing, obviously.
Extra: Personality: He's always one step happier than all others, grinning all the time in spite of everything. He's also transcendently loyal to any he considers a friend, and will put their lives above his own.
Richard leaped from tree branch to tree branch quietly, attempting to catch up to the figure that just took off with Foxx. The Folf whispered to himself, "That kid did have an aura of unluck about him... Not surprising... But the poor guy being taken? Pffff..." he broke off and focused on keeping up with the fast kidnapper... He saw the culprit pause in a dark valley, and he hopped from the branch silently to a pad of leaves and lay panting quietly, just a few dozen feet away from the two...
-
Foxx heard the sounds too and he barely kept in a scream of surprise when the hooded figure flew up in the air. He was put on the tree branch and looked at his captor.
"My family and friends were taken by this darkness. I am trying to save them." he explained "And my name is Foxx Sashihiki." he continued.
-
Getting up slowly, Rosuto hears some noise, and turns a bit to quickly toward the noise and looses his footing again, landing with a muffled 'Ooof' as well as the faint jingle of his chainmale before he gets up once more, still half blind from the sand and heads unwittingly in the direction of the valley. Stumbling in he trips and rolls down the slope, jingling and clanging the entire way cursing his bad luck.
-
Foxx heard the noises and looked behind the hooded figure. He saw a white a white kitsune rolling down the slope. He moved his paw slightly and a small whirlwind formed some feet down the slope, stopping the kitsune and laying him softly on the floor.
"Are you ok?" he asked, still keeping an eye on the hooded one.
-
"Who said that" He replies, looking about, still disoriented by the sand in his eyes, not to mention the rolling and the whirl wind. "Where are you!" He shouts as he gets up and sweeps his head around, trying to see the source, but with closed eyes.
-
*Growl* Comatose feels presents in trees around them only hoping that it isn't a servant of darkness. *Purr* "Ok, Foxx I swear I'll help you get your family back little one, only if you wish to have my help. And now you kitsune answer him, are you alright? I will tell you where we are once you tell use what or whom you follow." She then covers herself and Foxx just to make sure the presents in the trees and the unlucky kitsune are not going to start a fight.. Then she flinches at the open wound on her back but hides the pain. "So, answer..."
-
Name: Riku Blackhawk
Gender: Male
Species: Snow leopard
Strengths: he has mastered the art of deception and cunning, very intelligent. He is also skilled with a spear and blade, has a slight control over fire (e.g. can create fireballs and manipulate fire on a small level)
Weapon: Enchanted spear 'Shadowclaw**' and two short swords
*Armour:Black Plate armour on shoulders and legs, chain mail shirt covering torso, plate boots and bracers
*Extra: Disposition: he normally travels alone and isn't used to company, also he doesn't like to be touched, Large scar down his back, can be seen through his mail shirt.
**The enchantment on shadowclaw is that it is both light and incredibly tough, nigh-on indestructible, and wounds inflicted by the spear take substantially longer to heal and do not respond to any healing ointments or medicines save either powerful healing magic or by a master alchemist
--------------------------
Riku walked on the forest path, his mind mulling over what had happened a few miles ago. He stopped to wipe the gore off his spear and face as it was beginning to dry. Once he had finished he heard a commotion further down the path, from the voices he guessed there were around four of them, give or take one. Stepping off the road, he continued in amidst the trees and bushes, keeping out of sight. He stopped about thirty feet from the potential enemies, far enough not to be spotted, but close enough to overhear some conversation.
-
Richard gasped when the mysterious figure put a cover over her and Foxx, and against his better judgement, he ran out into the open in plain sight. He slapped himself in the forehead and froze in his tracks...
-
"A wolf? A fox? Oh dear now what do we have? Your turn, who in the heck are you. Hiding from us. Not wise to jump out amitsed possible enemy's. Who are you and are you an enemy? Don't think your off kitsune." Comatose backs up a slight bit and whispers "Are you ready for the possible battle?" She feels presents far off getting closer but has to ignore it for a few moments until she figures out about the odd amount of creatures in the valley.
-
Richard stood up straight and looked the speaker in the eye, "I'm only here because I was following Foxx. The poor guy had only just left my little shack in the forest, and I didn't want to see a visitor as respectful as him be attacked... What are you doing with him?"
-
"Not going to answer? I need to know whose on my side, and he is. Don't worry, there's no way I'm going to hurt him unless he chooses to fight me, he's free to go soon and do as he decides. You should know at least in this world, it's a smart idea to find whom you may be able to trust. What do you think?" Comatose begins to wonder if she should leave now and continue her mission, leaving who ever these creatures are. But part of her mission is to find who these living ones are. She starts to get confused, but holds her stance. "Are you looking for a fight?"
-
The last thing he wanted is to see Foxx hurt at this point. For the sake of his friend, he smiled and bowed to Comatose slightly, "I'm Richard Redvale. I'm a ranger and a friend to those in need. Foxx was traveling through the forest and because he was friendly, I invited him in my shack... He's a friend to me now, and I don't want to see him hurt."
-
Name: JoXander Swiftclaw
Gender: Male
Species: Silver Wolgon
Strengths: I am blind in both of my eyes. My Physical Abilities are almost that of a full grown adult, and my hearing ability makes up for my disabled sight.
Weapon(s): My Physical Ability
Armour: Full Black, Skin Tight Outfit that also covered the head but left an eye slit going across the front of the face mask. This suit helped with my agility and to keep cool in the heat.

==================
~I stayed hidden in the trees above, keeping quiet and in the shadows of the canopy, following the conversation that was going on between the group of furs on the forest floor~
-
"Hello Richard. So your not on the dark side, or are you? Either way, I did say I wouldn't hurt him didn't I. Why don't you talk to him, it's his move if he wants a fight right? So far he seems to be a good friend and so I shall be." Comatose now feels yet another presents, above. Now one above one below. The two right infront and the one next to her. She starts to feel anxious and thinks 'What if there all enemies?'
-
Riku cracked a smile as he learned their affiliation, he was about to attack when a better idea sprung to mind. Moving back towards the road, he lit a few small fires, controlling them so they didn't spread. He made a line of at least sixty feet wide and forty feet from the furs. Once he had made a full circle he kept the flames at an ember so as not to rouse suspicion or to attract their attention, once he was another ten feet away, he released his hold on the flames, letting them rise high and devour the foliage and hopefully kill his enemies.
-
I noticed the fire rising towards the canopy and jumped down onto the forest floor. I then jolted out of the forest, using all of my functional senses to help lead me to the Fur that caused this fire.
-
'No, I knew it, dang.' She thought. "Foxx, I'm going to have to get you out of here." Comatose grabs Foxx and again her cloak makes wings and brings him fast and far. "I'm so sorry for bring you into all this." Then goes back. Her thoughts come in 'What about the others, I know there capable, but should I help or leave them and let the dark flames have even have the possibility of them consuming. Well if they're enemies I guess they'll live to fight another day.' She goes in and grabs both the kitsune and Richard tight and brings them just barely out of the fire. Then goes back and wonders about the presents she felt in the trees, but it's gone. *Growl* She yells ready to spring on the starter of the fire. "You evil follower of darkness..." Then fire begins to engulf her...
-
Riku saw a figure approaching and acted as though he was trying to put out the fire "you there, boy! You're just in time! Help me put out this blaze...Ah it's no use, we'd better get out of here! now before we get burnt to a crisp" he waited for the figure to catch up with him before he set off towards the outside of the forest, the flames rising and getting hotter behind him. Noticing the Woman in the sky he pointed to her "you! how dare you accuse me of following the darkness! I'm trying to put the blasted flame out!"
-
I continued to run until I heard the word 'boy'. I stopped in my tracks and listened some more until I could distinctly tell from where the voice came from. I began in the direction slowly, then started faster, feeling and avoiding the warm patches of heat coming from the fire.
-
((Thanks for waiting... -_-'))
Foxx looked down and noticed Richard.
"Richard!" he said, surprised, then he turned to Comatose "Don't hurt him, he's a friend, he helped me a while ago." he explained. Foxx stood up quickly as he felt magic being used not far away "We have problems... and big ones!" he said as the flames started devouring the trees around them. He shouts in surprise when Comatose jumps with him and grabs Richard and the kitsune, then watches in shock as Comatose is engulfed by the flames "Ok, ENOUGH!" he yelled, lifting his right paw "Rain! I summon thee!" he shouted to the air. It started to rain heavily. The flames slowly disappeared and Foxx looked around, trying to spot the culprit.
-
((Yea I know, I'm very sorry Foxx... my fault))
~Going back a bit~ "Ok, fine, a friend..." "Problems?" 'No I knew it, dang.'
~Now~ Comatose feels rain hitting, it hurts yet it feels good. She tries to get up but it doesn't go so well. "Stupid fire," She whispers. 'Ok lay here for a few more seconds then try to get up again.' Now she, stands but can't move. She starts to get really frustrated, then looks around. "Foxx? Why did you come back over here? Thanks..."
-
((It's ok... I'm kinda used to it @_@. And I manage to post anyway xP))
Foxx went near Comatose and helped her up.
"Are you ok?" he asked, still looking around to see who made the fire.

Name: Philly
Nickname: None
Gender: Male
Species: Red Fox
Strengths: Agility, Doesn't let petty things bother him
Weapon: Dark aura powers.
Armor: lightweight training suit
Extra: Markings: Brownish-orange fur, white underbelly, left ear is blue. Personality: Does whatever he can to survive, even if it means betraying a teammate.
===================================================
Philly was walking through the forrest when he suddenly saw huge flames rise up somewhere off in the distance, only to be put out by the rain a few minutes later. He knew that this was the work of magic and wondered if there was a battle goin on. He turns in the direction of where the fire was and starts off running towards the clearing.
-
Richard rolled over when Comatose dropped him next to the edge of the flame and got to his feet. He looked around stunned and saw a Fox with a blue ear coming towards the clearing. He put out his hand in warning to the Fox and dropped into a cautious stance, looking around for the starter of the flame.
-
Philly stops infront of the creature holding up its paw. He looks him up and down wondering what exactly he was. "You would be wise to step aside and let me through to the clearing" he said.
-
I step out of the foliage, slowly coming to a stop near the group of Furs. I eyed them cautiously
-
"Yea, just fine. Not many people care around here any more do they, heh. Anyways, I managed to keep my 'cloak' out of the fire, I'll just being gliding around for a while." She looks at all the creatures all around, still cautious. "Foxx, follow me." She moves quickly to the on who started the fire. "If it's a fight he wants, it's what he'll get." She goes under the cover of the trees and sees another and looks at him. He moves slow but then fast. She waits to see what will happen... 'Please, if your on our side don't believe his lies...'
-
Foxx followed Comatose and noticed the one who said that was trying to put out the fire and the smaller fur.
"Were you the one that started the fire?" Foxx asked, looking at the blue eared fox.
-
name - Golge
nickname - none
gender- male
species- chameleon
strengths- very agile, very sneaky
weapons- three swords, one in each hand, one in the tail.
armor- he doesnt wear armor
extra- he's rather insane, his mind being shattered by past events, he is very unpredictable, often saying one thing, then changing his mind and doing another.
Golge was returning to his home from a day of hunting, he lived alone in a treehouse of sorts. when he arrived, he was enraged to find it burned down. "rrrr what!?" dropping his food, he conjured his three blades, and took off into the trees.
he quickly came across a group of furs, among them a fox with blue ears, he slowly crept up, listening to what they were saying, he heard the word fire and his blood began to boil "rrr stupid furs...they burn my home, and look at them...too thin, too thin, they wont do, no not at all" his stomach growled as he watched them from the shadows
-
Glancing over to the side after the blue-eared-fox threatened me, I saw a familiar person come running out of no where... I dropped my paw and then cupped it over my mouth, "Swiftclaw!? That you!?" and I ignored the fox at my back for the moment, running over to my friend.
-
~I realized who it was and gave a delighted smile behind my facemask. I stepped forward, slowly. I was taking in all of this information as I was listening. I came upon the one who called my name, sadly, I forgot his, and held my paw out in a shake~
-
"Heya little buddy... It's Richy... What are you doing here?"
-
I smiled again, this time adding a shrug into it. I didn't know how many Furs I was surrounded by, but now I knew that it was one less to worry about. This was Richie. Richie and I have crossed paths a number of times, so many in fact it's like we don't even realize that we do. I felt out into the air, reaching, trying to touch and feel who I was with.
-
I stood beside little Jojo, and put a large paw on his shoulder, "I'm not exactly sure what is going on myself... But you remember Foxx? Yeah... Someone's screwing with him... I don't know who she is yet."
-
I looked up at him, my seriousness beginning to kick in. I didn't like my friends..my PACK..being jerked around like some rag doll human.
-
Comatose starts to get angry with all the furs around and feels to many enemies. She feels if she stays she'll be betrayed and attacked for the 3rd time this day. She knows she isn't welcome by the few people on her side. 'I can't let Shadow win, my mission isn't to stand here...' She whispers to Foxx "Hey, I'll help you get your family back and you help me fight this evil. You decide. Meet me two miles north outside of the Crystal Fantôme once you finish here. I'll wait as long as I can, but..." She feels eyes on her and starts to go but then thinks. "Here, Foxx, this is a gift to remind you of the good in this horrible place, don't open it unless you need help." Comatose hands him a gift rapped up. *Growl*. She pounces under tree cover and makes sure no ones around and watches...
Then looks up and over to see chameleon mumbling at the others...
-
"No I didn't start the fire, but I was curious as to who did so I came to check it out" Philly says to Foxx. Seeing that the creature that had stopped him had stepped aside, Philly decides to check the ground where the fire had been started.
-
Foxx looked at Jojo and a small smile appeared on his muzzle.
"Hey, Jojo." he said, keeping an eye on the other fox. He then looked at Comatose and nodded, "Ok, thank you. I'll just take care of somethings here, then I'll go meet you." he said and took her gift "Um... ok..." he said, and put the gift in a pocket inside his cloak.
-
Riku had taken advantage of all the commotion going on and slipped away into the forest, though not before hearing about Comatose's meeting place "Maybe an ambush is in order, though it would take a fool to think that they can best two enemies on their own..I may have to recruit somebody" he thought to himself, and decided to advance upon the blue eared fox once he had left the company of others...something seemed...dark about him, maybe Riku could use that to his advantage.
-
Philly bends down and studies the ground where the fire was started. "This was definately dark magic" he thought looking around for the person who started the fire. He picks up a sample of dirt and sniffs it, then sets off into the woods searching for the scent.
-
Riku saw the Fox move towards him. Knowing that The fox was going to reveal his position, he stepped out in front of the fox, his blade shining in the flames that licked around his legs, kept alive by the leopard's dark magic even in the rain. Pointing Shadowclaw at the Fox he declared in a confident voice, loud enough to be heard By Philly but quiet enough so no-one else could hear "I am Riku, and I am in league with the darkness, State your name and affiliation so we can get this over with"
-
"My name is Philly, and I too follow the darkness" Philly said staring down the edge of the blade pointed at him.
-
((Sheesh guys, leave a fellow behind for getting sick))
"Leave now evil ones." Rosuto growls out under his breath, drawing his sword with his right hand and whiping enough of the sand out of his eyes to see, just barely. "I am the Paladin Rosuto and none of your wicked ness shall survive the purging light of my blade." I growl out, attempting to entice some one into acting, so I know who to strike.
-
(sowwy :sniffle:)
Riku lowered his blade, raising an eyebrow at Philly "Is that so? Then would you deign to assist me in the ambush of a common enemy? I could reward you if need be" Riku fell silent, waiting for a response from the fox in front of him, not even acknowledging the ruse from Rosuto, as he realised it was just a ploy to get him to give away his location and his allegiance
-
"It is" Philly says not taking his eyes off the blade. "What kind of a reward are we talking about exactly? And furthermore who is it you want to ambush?" he says with a slight sound of greed in his voice.
-
still skulking about in the shadows, golge suddenly realised he had been spotted and darted back into the undergrowth, he quickly spotted the one who had started the fire, "rrrr i hat- wait..that one looks familiar" and he crept slowly towards the leopard and fox then asked loud enough for them to hear " rrrr you, you start fire?", and he pointed at the leopard, sensing the refreshing dark energy in the area.
-
Riku cracked a lopsided grin "Gold...power...whatever you wish. As for the targets, just a few faith followers that need to be...educated" His gaze switched towards the chameleon who had just come out of hiding "it depends...Who wants to know?"
-
golge hesitated slightly "rrrr my house...it burned" he said quickly, having almost forgotten... then something clicked in his mind "rrrr you serve darkness? yesss yes? rrrr maybe i help you yesss? my name...golge, its golge" the chameleon said excitedly, fidgeting like crazy
-
Name: Pheonix
*Nickname: Nix
Gender: Female
Species: Wolf
Strengths: fights till the end. Doesn't let anything stop her from reaching her goal. Very stealthy (Assassin).
Weapon: Dark Bow and Arrow. Claws.
*Armor: none
*Extra: Makings: pentacle on left palm of paw. tribal crescent moon on right ankle. 3 large claw marks running down back.
Pheonix slowly stalked through the thick woods. A light glow of a blaze and black smoke rose out of the darkness of the night. She sat on a branch and looked towards the red glow. "What the---," She paused. As the smoke rose, Nix darted towards the commotion. She stood along the tree line and watched as wanderers discussed the issue presented.
-
((Sorry, but why are dark followers in the same clearing as us light followers, that doesn't make sense))
-
((O.o... i read all the posts... and still didnt understand whose dark or light.))
Nix decided to go back into the dark forest. "Hmph!" she mumbled to herself. She drew her bow and arrow and quickly shot it. the arrow was lost in the darkness. "These woods are so old, they creek with the lightest breeze." She collected her thoughts and continued moving onward to her home.
-
(errr lemme read the posts......i think they arent in the SAME clearings, just ones that are very very near)
-
(it is in a different clearing, just close by)
"I'm more interested in that blade you have there, but either way I'm in" Philly says with an evil grin. His grin quickly turns into a scowl when an arrow flys out of the woods and right past his head. He ducks low to the ground and stays squatting for a while in case anymore arrows come by. Looking at the chameleon Philly asks "Do you have an interest in the dark arts?"
-
Nix continued walking through the woods looking for her lone arrow. she came to a clearing where a chameleon and fox were conversing. She got low to the ground, her ears twitching, while attempting to get a good listen in on the conversation.
-
Golge leaned closer to Philly and answered in a hushed voice "hehehe, Golge IS darkness" then he began jumping about excitedly like a young child on a sugar rush. suddenly he stopped dead "rrr someone else is near" he growled and began searching around the area
-
Pheonix dipped low to the ground. Her breathing thinned, almost to a halt. She quickly jumped into the tree that hung above her. ~Damn! please don't let them find me~ she thought to herself as the chameleon came near.
-
"I know" Philly said still low to the ground. "I could smell them coming closer to us." Philly stands up straight and walks over to a tree where an arrow had stuck in it and pulls it out. Sniffing the arrow he says " Whoever they are they shot this arrow right at us." Twirling the arrow in his paw, he starts scanning the treetops, knowing that someone was there but not seeing them. "And whoever they are they can hide themselves well" Philly thinks to himself.
-
(I'm so sorry for the problems such as not waiting and confusion)
Data (Comatose) almost got skimmed by an arrow. Comatose sneaked up the tree that Pheonix was in but stayed cloaked. She wanted to know what she was doing here, but she had to wait for the others to leave. She also had to figure out what the once below were discussing, she had heard a few words from what they were saying. She felt it may be about her or someone who was good. Comatose hoped she was wrong but she didn't know.
-
Foxx smiled at Richie and Jojo then turned to Rosuto.
"Sorry, but is something wrong?" he asked.
-
((God, I read though the multiple pages twice and still couldn't tell that we were in diffrent areas, thats why I posted like I did, I'm in the same area as Foxx god I make myself look bad))
-
(Yeah, it is kinda confuzzling. You, me, Jojo, Richie and Comatose are in the same clearing. We are all on the same side. The others are in another clearing, nearby. Phoenix is on our side too, but we don't know... yet)
Foxx noticed something in the Kitsune's eyes and made a small ball of clean water near them.
"Clean your eyes with this water." he said, smiling slightly.
-
(this is going back a few posts at the beginning)
Riku chuckled at the fox's comment "you'd have to do more than a mere ambush for me if you want this blade" He took a step back as he heard a distant twang of a bowstring. Looking where the arrow came from he couldn't see anybody, but his senses were on high alert "I feel we are being watched...Silence both of you! lest your tongues be our downfall" He fell silent, taking a few steps back so he was out of the clearing "I'll meet you later...here" Riku threw a small piece of parchment showing the Fox where to meet him.
-
Upon seeing the water Rosuto quickly clears his eyes with it, sighing as th burning sensation from the salts in the sand fades away, allowing him full vision once more. "Thank you, all I heard was some one mentioning darkness and assumed that I was in the prescence of evil, being unable to see didn't help things all that much." He says as he shieths his sword and realigns his chainmail so it doesn't trip him up again.
-
Philly grabs the piece of parchment at his feet and memorizes the entire thing. straightning himself back up again. Making sure the leapord has left the clearing he looks at the chameleon and says "I'm sorry about your house, but if you want revenge for it then follow exectly what this parchment says and you will find the fur responsible for burning it down." He tosses the parchment at the chameleon and runs off into the woods with a smile, knowing that soon he would have his hands on Riku's blade.
-
Golge looked at the parchment for a second, then realized the others were gone, not wanting to be alone again, golge quickly began heading the direction the others went.
-
Nix's ears twitched. "Whose there?!" She whispered sternly. She then looked at the fox holding her arrow. well I'm not getting that back anytime soon she thought to herself.
-
I looked around noticing that it was getting darker...and colder...Without warning I abruptly turned and began to walk in the opposite of the group casually. I was going to set up camp for the night.
-
Comatose prowls around and watches as the 3 darkness leaves and in the direction she thought she was planing to take. Anyways she started to get closer to Phoenix. She tightened her cloak. "Who may you be?..."
-
Pheonix jumped at the voice. "I'm Pheonix. And whom might you be?" She whispered, questioning the voice.
-
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to scare you. I am... Comatose. May I ask of your being here?" Comatose looked down into the valley and listen for voices and presences around. She was thinking about a lot but stopped herself to focus on the task at hand.
-
"My arrow flew in this direction and I've com to retrieve it. But as I can see it, I'm going to be getting it back," She said as she looked beside her at Comatose. "And what is your purpose here?" She questioned.
-
" Oh, so that was yours." Comatose wondered if she should say what of her being here and decided to respond. "I am helping a... a... friend I guess you could say. And am also on a mission." Data looked around again and again. Now focused but a little on edge with all the happenings and meeting with in only a short time. She decided to be... even more careful.
-
Name: Korin
Nickname: Kor
Gender: Male
Species: Void (or Shadow) Dragon
Strengths: Surprisingly limber and agile, making dodging attacks easier; Rarely scared or surprised, and willing to help others if he can.
Weapon(s): Black colored flame used as projectile and in close combat, sometimes uses his scimitar, but perfers to rend than rather cut

Extra: In complete darkness, his eyes glow red, indicating his ultravision is activated. Also, He has mutliple scars across his body, with one that gives off a light purple glow across his chest.
After several hours of fitful sleep, Korin finnaly wakes up, and starts to head out to the entrance of his cave, which looks out over the valley, but thats a pointless reason due to the fog that doesn't seem to leave the valley. He thought he must be seeing things, but he could've sworn that there are new creatures in the forest since he was last awake, but then again...that was quite awhile ago, so things must have changed. He decided to gather his supplies, and scale down the wall, notcing that nothing has affected it in the time he was gone, into the darkness again I suppose...
-
Nix jumped down from her perch and moved closer to the fox and chameleon. I need that arrow back She thought to herself and she got low to the ground, her agile body and stealth characteristics not making a sound on the forest floor.
-
When he reached the ground, the mist made it almost impossible to navigate the forest floor safefully, so..instead of relying on his sight, he makes use of the extra water in the air and starts to sniff the air for the newcomers, the first scent he got was one that at first seemed like a chameleon, but then realized that the creature had no real defining scent, but he then picks up the scent of a fox, no, a fox and a wolf. Well, this is going to be an interesting day. He mused as he started towards the scource of the three scents, not noticing hes giving off an aura of darkness, easily alerting those who are sensitive to magic..
-
Nix felt a dark presence but chose to ignore it for the time being, for it was still quite a ways away. Nix looked onward at the fox and chameleon. I'll attempt to retrieve it tomorrow. Dusk is approaching. I'll come back later and pick up there scent. She retreated silently and looked up at Comatose, who had remained in the tree. Pheonix continued on her way. She felt the dark presence gaining. What the..... she thought as she got low to the ground.
-
The wolf scent seemed to get closer than the other two, almost to the point where he could guess its location by his nose alone, and when he noticed the scent stop moving he calmly said "Wolf, come on out, I can already smell you, so no point in hiding, if you wish to fight I am more than ready". he says, stabbing his scimitar into the ground, waiting for it to approach within sight...
-
The agile female wolf rose and swiftly but gracefully wandered to the dragon. Her eyes glistened as she stepped into a patch of sunlight. She looked at the dragon. Fear absent in her eyes. "I felt your presence and I do not wish to fight." She said calmly.
-
While wandering through the woods Philly decides to get some rest before he heads out to the meeting place. He lays down beside a large tree and closes his eyes, the arrow still tightly gripped in his hand.
-
Comatose see's the wolf leaving. "Goodbye, if your purpose is good I wish you well." She jumps off of the tree and flies deeper into the dark forest of no light. 'Another presents. I feel many more battles deadlier than ever... will come soon.' Data glides low and goes to check around also look for signs to what she was looking for. Then she goes higher skiming the tops of the trees and soon finds something she hasn't seen for a long time. Comatose closes her cloak around as to not be seen and most likley not senced. The shadow says something to the trees and a wolf comes out. 'Are you shadow too or just in the wrong place at the wrong time?..."
-
He smiled and removed and sheated his blade "Good, I was not in the mood for wolf today...now, what is your buisness here in this valley?" He solemnly said, wraping his arms across his chest. Then, as he snorted out of impatience, he caught a whiff of the unsual scent, somewhere nearby. "and whoever else is here, I expect the answer to the same question" he said, only almost to the point of yelling.
-
"Which question... my "good sir"? This forest was and still is mine." Comatose jumped down and bowed then flew behind. She ran into the shadows and shape shifted into a smaller dragon form, ready for any fight. "What is your Majesty Impatience's doing in this valley?"
-
I looked at the shapeshifter and bluntly said "I live in the cave on the valley wall, so I am a resident as well, but I just can't seem to remember you, whats your name?" he asked, almost forgetting the wolf.
-
"Oh? Well, creatures know me as Comatose. And you?" Comatose came out of the shadows and stood next to the shadow dragon. "You seem, either angry, tired or confident." Data wondered if a battle between them would break out. ...
-
The name seems to be familiar with him, but he just can't seem to remember why..."Hmm...are you also called Data?" he asked, in pure curiostiy...
-
" Quite possible my good shadow. How would you know this?" Comatose looked around, then at the wolf. "Have you found your arrow? And you Dragon, what is your business being here?"
-
A big smile crosses his face, and he hugs the small dragon "Its me Data, Kor...the little whelp that followed you around several decades ago, I would say you changed alot, but thats what your species does." then he let go, and without any regal tone or stature, impatiently asked "So what have you been doing all this time?"
-
"Kor? I don't remember you being... so dark. I work on saving creatures a lot of times. You didn't answer... what's your business here?" Comatose wondered what she should do. His impatience was making her impatient also. Data wondered if she could trust him or not.
-
He cocks his head to the right, and quickly answers, "Well, I just woke up, and when I looked out my cave, I noticed movement in the forest, so I came to check it out...I'm sorry I was gone for so long, I kind of went through a mentally stressful time when my powers came, so I left the valley and found the cave, and basically slept off the stress, learning how to use my powers in my sleep, sounds wierd, but thats what happened..."
-
Foxx sighed as he reached the meeting place. He looked around and jumped onto a tree, so the followers of darkness wouldn't spot him, Now I just have to wait... the fox thought, looking at the moon.
-
As golge reached the meeting place he noticed one of two things, number one he was the first one there, number two, the sickening stench of light was in the air, suddenly he became very nervous... was it an ambush? a trap? he summoned his blades and began to fall back into the shadows. "rrr maybe this not a good plan for golge"
-
Foxx's ears twitched and he looked around. Someone or someone was near him. But the problem was... they didn't seem friendly. He slowly grabbed the hilt of his sword, not moving much, Maybe if I stay still, they will just walk by and there won't be any problems... he thought.
-
a couple hours later Philly wakes up. Yawning he says "I'd better head out towards the meeting place." He starts walking in the direction of the meeting place making sure to keep to the shadows.
-
(Also, everyone including myself... remember to wait for those who are getting behind)
"Alright. I'm sorry about your stressful time. I hope your alright now. Always good to see you again. I need to go soon." Comatose went over to Phoenix to see if she was ok. Then went back to Kor. "May I ask what you plan on doing now that you know what the movement was?"
-
Riku came up beside Gogle, not making a sound, he indicated to wait and mouthed "it's better if we attack from different angles, you stay here and I'll go further north". Riku finished and then strode right out into the open, he knew there a was a faith follower nearby, but continued as if he didn't notice him and walked straight past the meeting place and out of sight, hiding himself from view and detection.
-
After a while of walking Philly sees Golge hiding behind some trees. He walks over to him and says "Any sign of anybody here yet?"
-
golge jumped slightly when philly spoke "rrrr i smell it... there is light here" he hissed loudly, looking everywhere for the enemy, swords at the ready
-
Foxx moved slightly, crouching on the branch he was on. He saw the leopard ((leopard, right? sorry I forgot..)) and waited for him to walk out of sight. He then jumped off the tree and landed on the ground with two soft taps and carefully looked around.
-
(gone for 30 minutes and everyone leaves me behind grr)
He looked around, noticing other scents in the forest.."Well, I could follow you around, you might need the protection, since I'm geting a whiff of other creatures...and some of them are not from the shadows...." and nods to the wolf, hoping that she will follow as well...
-
"Yes....I sense it too. The light is unusually strong with this one." Philly says. Gripping the arrow in his hand tighter he says "I fear more may come soon. When do we strike?"
-
"Not from the shadows? I... I don't think that's a good idea at the moment. After the long time, you don't know me well any more. Maybe we could meet later in time?" Comatose glided into the air about twenty feet ready to go. But she waited to see if he was going to do/ say something.
-
Golge hesitated, he was unused to being asked for advice "rrrr uhhh we have to find them, when we do, we kill" he replied, feeling satisfied with what he just said he continued to search, he could make out a very faint outline of someone in the shadows and began to move towards them
-
"But if I let you go now, I'll know you even less, no, I'm coming with!" he insisted, and shadowy wings formed out of his back, allowing him to fly up to Data..."I'm much stronger than the whelp you knew before, but I still want to call you my friend...not a nice stranger...and to do that, I have to be with you now!"
-
Philly gets low to the ground and starts creeping towards the person standing in the middle of the clearing.
-
((Phoenix?))
"I am stronger also. Well, hoping you won't attack me for who I am now..." Then she turned to Phoenix. "I hope you find your arrow." Data flew high, changed into what she was before and headed toward the meeting place. She glided right above the trees weaving in and out of the tops.
-
who I am now?? he wondered as he floated up, and saw her change again, and followed close to wherever she was heading to..
-
"Let me ask you, have you ever attacked someone on the other side? Do you have all light?" Data went a little faster. 'Almost there.' Comatose kept on track but curved a little out of the way. 'Can never be to careful.'
-
What is she talking about...I'm just worried about her! was all I could think before she started speeding up and curving, it hurt to match the speed and tried to stay right behind her, but losing sight of my only friend is even more painful...
-
(Sorry, I meant do you hate all light not have)
Comatose went about 50 feet of the meeting spot. "Kor. Be quiet and don't make a move. I feel like I, as well as a friend... are in danger. I'm just going to check around to make sure we aren't." Data jumped from tree to tree silently, covered in her cloak. She sensed about 3 or four here. 'Who and why are they here.' In one way she hoped Foxx wasn't but then again hoped he was.
-
as golge searched, the stench of light grew stronger "rrrr, more of them" he said worriedly, he was confident in single combat but against more than two opponents, not even his strange combat style was effective.
he began to back away again, ever the indecisive chameleon
-
When she lept away...he felt he had to stay with her, but if she told him to stay, why should he disobey...these conflictions constantly made his mind more and more confused, to the point where anything could make him snap...
-
Philly stays low to the ground, still creeping up behind the unsuspecting fox. He was getting ready to strike but suddenly felt two more light followers closing in on his position fast. "Two against three isn't good." he thinks turning around. His eyes grow wide when he sees that golge had left him.
-
Comatose slipped back to Kor. "Look, I'm sorry about being so confusing. I might need your help soon." She went again motioning with her tail to follow. "Stay here, we are about 20 ft from the meeting place of my friend. I know there's a few creatures around." Comatose went in the trees of the meeting place and sat at the top watching.
-
golge could feel the light around him, he began to panic "kill before killed, kill before killed" he muttered over and over to himself, it was his motto and he would live and die by it.
-
Being told to follow her calmed him down, but all this secrecy of what she is has done little to help ease the stress, but he trusts her enough to not turn on him...after all, he trusted her to not lead him to harm when he was growing up...why would she turn on him now?... and he sits on a branch, causing little to no sound, and tries to dampen his aura...
-
Foxx started walking under the shadows of the trees, trying not to be spotted, This is not good... he thought, looking around. He saw a shadow, not that far away, then another one, flying, I hope their friendly... he continued, slowly unsheathing his sword.
-
Riku felt the arrival of more light and another dark presence "well that makes it four on two" he thought to himself, he adjusted his position slightly to see if he could discern where the other light follower was, but to no avail. Finally growing impatient of waiting he broke cover and stood in the open calling out "reveal yourselves followers of light, I can sense your presence just as much as you can sense mine, now come out of hiding before I hunt you down." He stood there, his senses on high alert as he waited for a reaction from the others. it didn't even matter if Philly and Golge had abandoned him, he was used to being alone. Just two of them wouldn't pose much of a threat to him either.
-
Upon hearing Riku call out for the light followers to show themselves he turned around and looked towards the clearing. "Finally" he says as he blasts a ball of energy at the ground, propelling him into the air. Landing beside Riku in the clearing he says "Where have you been?"
-
Riku jumped back and raised his spear in a flash before he realised who it was, lowering his spear again he said calmly "waiting for the opportune time, unfortunately I got impatient before that time came" he finished, his tone bitter and scornful "I wait to wet my blade with the blood of those who are against me"
-
"Well there's no hiding now. Golge bolted right when I was getting ready to strike" He says looking around for any others.
-
Foxx saw both the leopard and the fox standing not far away. He slowly walked from under the tree, holding his sword tightly in his right paw, "So... were you the ones that made that fire...?" he asked, Come on, Data, I can't beat them alone... he thought. His tail was wagging nervously.
-
Riku grunted "what does your heart tell you?" he said in a low, growling tone. clicking his fingers, a fireball shot towards the tree that was behind Foxx, enveloping the oak in flames as the tree burnt brightly, casting a orange light about the place. "Now drop your weapon and your death will be painless...you cannot hope to beat us both"
-
Foxx looked behind him, seeing the tree burning. He turned to the two furs and nodded slightly, "Yeah... I guess you're right..." he said, but instead of putting his sword down, he grabbed it with both paws, "But I won't just give up, either...!" he added. A slightly sinister grin spread across his muzzle, his eyes glowing in a somewhat sinister way, too. A small breeze was felt, Let's see... if I can stall them... Foxx thought.
-
Feeling a fight about to occour, he can barely control himself, his aura becoming more and more overwhelming....
-
Comatose went back to Kor. "Come closer. I'm going to go to Foxx and tell him we're here without letting the others know. When one of them begins to fight I go to Foxx's side, then you come and the battle will begin between us." Data flew over to where she was and slunk through the shadows to Foxx and whispered "Don't worry." She stayed there hidden ready for the strike that would would start this.
-
as he ran, Golge realised something sinister, a cruel grin spread across his face. turning around he leapt into the trees and headed back to the meeting area.
when he arrived he saw a tree burning "rrrr there, enemy" he growled to himself and then he began to chant "kill or be killed, kill or be killed" over and over, working himself into a frenzy.
at the height of his bloodlyst he let out a loud shout "KILL!" and began to charge from tree to tree into battle.
-
Laughing, Philly says "Either this kid is really stupid, or he's got guts. And I'm inclined to go with the first." As he was about to strike though he heard someone shouting "Kill or be killed!" several times over and over.
-
After slowly creeping away from the Dragon and Comatose talking, Pheonix crept back into the forest still pondering how she was going to retrieve her arrow. She continued onward into the forest. She came to an opening. She sniffed the air and ground searching for a trace of any other sent. "Ahhh. No other sent. I'll make camp here for the time being." She said to herself. She kept by the tree line and began to make her camp.
-
I sat in the trees, my black full body helping me keep cover with the dark sky behind me. I had built a fire for my camp so if thieves were to attack, no one would be there. But I was.
-
Foxx looked at them, slightly nervous. He then heard something and looked around, seeing a chameleon running towards them, "What the...?" he said.
-
Pheonix lays by the fire. She flipped over and began looking at the constellations.
-
Riku watched as Philly stopped his strike "fool, getting distracted like that could mean death". Seizing the opportunity from the distraction Golge was giving, he shot a jet of flame towards the Fox intending to engulf the distracted fox. Then he began to run forward, sticking his spear out, intending to skewer his enemy.
-
Foxx looked at the chameleon then noticed the flames approaching him. He quickly lifted his paw and a wall of water, that seemed like a waterfall going up, appeared in front of him, protecting him and Comatose, who was behind him, hidden in the shadows, from the flames. He saw Riku running with his spear and prepared his sword.
-
I noticed her in my camp and quickly jumped off of the tree, landing on top of her, holding her arms and chest down with my weight and strength. One could easily tell when I became serious.
-
"Hmmm, a fake alliance is more effective than coming to help...." he mumbled, before leaping down, and breathing shadow flame over the waterfall, quickly breaking it up and drawing out 'Wrath'. "Finally found you light scum, leave the valley or I'll make you leave this plane..." He said, standing tall and looking quite fearsome. Hope Data likes the setup...
-
Seeing everybody start attacking Philly shoots a couple balls of energy towards Foxx and starts running towards him, gripping the arrow firmly in his hand prepared to use it as a temporary weapon.
-
Comatose saw Philly...jumped out and became a Shadow lion. Data raced and landed on him claws meeting face. Then without taking her eyes of him she spoke to the tall fearsome dragon behind, Kor... "You trader!"...'Fighting has to be real.'
-
As Philly was about to attack Foxx he was suddenly attacked by a shadow lion. Struggling to get free, Philly grips the arrow in his hand and stabs it into the shadow lion on top of him, breaking it off in it's side. "Get off of me!" he shouts still struggling.
-
Comatose almost feel over with failing strength. *Roar* "You little... devil." 'Sorry about your arrow Phoenix.' She grabbed Philly and threw him across into a tree... Then she looked at her side. 'Well no pain no game.' She looked back. "There, I'm off."
-
Foxx started running towards Riku, the tall water wall collapsing and getting the two wet. He swung his sword, meeting the leopard's spear. They looked at each other for some moments. Foxx pushed Riku away and ran at him, intending to pierce him with his sword.
-
"its fine" Pheonix said as she heard all the commotion. She quickly ran over pulling out another arrow and firing it hoping to pierce the skin of one of the attackers.
-
Koro lets out a roar as he wraps 'Wrath' in shadow flames and lunges at Data...swinging with the intent to kill...
-
Pheonix watched the dragon in awe. She quickly retrieved the arrow that barely missed data and quickly fled before she was involved in the battle.
-
Seeing the girl pick up the arrow that had just flown past him, Philly starts after her, running through the woods intent on catching up to her and making her fight.
-
She quickly looked back at Philly, who had followed her "Damn it!" she said under her breath and she bolted through the forest, jumping from tree to tree hoping to lose him.
-
Philly sees her jump into the tree tops and begins to run faster, intent on not losing her. He starts firing shots of energy into the trees hoping to hit her and knock her down.
-
Riku laughs as Foxx engages him. He watched as his enemy charged towards him, Jumping to the side, he swung the spear around in a tight semi-circle before sweeping it at the fox's legs, intending to trip him up.
-
Foxx saw the leopard lumping to the side and grumbled some cusses, trying to avoid the spear by jumping and rolling forward. He got up and looked at his enemy.
-
Riku's face grew serious as he leaped towards the fox, his feline agility aiding him as he closed the gap between them. Once he was a few feet away, he grabbed his spear in the middle and spun it before attempting to drive the blunt end into Foxx's stomach
-
Foxx looked at the leopard as he quickly approached. He leaned back a bit when the spear was about to hit him, and he waved his paw quickly. A gust of wind was felt, and the leopard was thrown to one side.
-
Deciding that chasing after the girl was a lost cause, Philly turns back around and runs back into he clearing. Seeing Riku get swept away with a gust of wind, he blasts a ball of energy at the fox's back. "I hope I didn't miss too much."
-
Turning around, Nix runs after Philly. She quickly fired an arrow that swiped his arm.
-
Sighing, Philly turns to look at her and says "Make up your mind! Are you going to run or fight?!" But before she could say anything he shot an energy ball at her.
-
Comatose becomes a smaller dragon and jumps up and lands on Kor's back when she saw the deadly attack coming and bats him to the side then pins him down. Then she looked at Philly wondering if she should continue fighting him.
-
Philly switches his gaze from Pheonix to Data and rushes towards her. Just before he got to her he saw an arrow sticking out of the ground. Smiling, he picks it up while still running towards Data and leaps into the air at her.
-
Koro tries to fight back a smile as he bucks her away from Philly's leap and then blocks the attack..."She's my fight...interferance will result in your death..." and I turn towards Data, sheating my sword in the same shadow flame...but calmy walking towards Data...
-
Nix quickly dodges the ball and fires another arrow. She chanted a spell causing the arrow to glow a black-purple.
-
Seeing the dragon fly infront of Data, Philly, slightly frightened of the beast's sudden appearance infront of him, nearly stops in mid-air and lands back down on the ground. Just as he landed however, he felt a sharp pain in his back. He reached back and pulled an arrow out of his back, then turns to look at Pheonix. Before he could say something though he just feel to the ground unconcious. The last thought running through his head was "What kind of an arrow was that"
-
Pheonix ran to Philly and picked him up. She quickly looked around and darted towards her camp.
-
Comatose silently thanked the dragon in her head then looked over before the fighting begin again and saw Philly fall unconscious. 'Oh my, is he dead? Phoenix, what is she doing here and what did she do?' Before anything else happened Data ran to Philly flew into the air and tied him to a tree with magical chains. 'Just to make sure he won't hurt anyone or get away. Two more...' Then she bounced off the tree onto Kor...
-
Pheonix watched as philly was tied to a tree. She sent a message to comatose. Don't worry he isnt dead
-
((Sorry, when I wrote the last reply I didn't realize you had picked him up))
' 'O...k, good. Sorry for stealing him from you. Why are you here, what's your real purpose?' '
-
Golge was still running around like a madman, apparently unnoticed, he became tired of being a distraction and readied his poisoned swords. stopping for a brief moment to steady himself, he launched himself directly at phoenix, blades ready for the kill
-
Noticing Data was on top of him, he reaced back with one claw, and tossed her onto the grass, careful to not land her near any large rocks...Then noticing the crazed lizard launching itself at Phoenix, he immedeatly forgot to 'fake' a fight, and threw a shadow-flame sphere in front of Phoenix to knock away the lizard...
-
"I'll tell you the story after we're done here" She replied preparing herself for the crash of the lizard but jumped back from the shadow sphere that flew past her.
-
(Oops, sorry guys.. almost forgot this.....)
Foxx grinned as Riku was thrown away by the wind and turned around, seeing the ball of energy coming directly at him, "Holy...!" the fox said, trying to make a shield of water, but he wasn't fast enough. The ball hit him in the chest and he flew some feet away, landing on his back with a loud thud, unconscious.
-
The flame hit golge square in the chest, the pain was intense but his enraged mind told him it was nothing. he charged relentlessly towards the intended target, not caring that the large dragon had attacked him
-
Pheonix watched the lizard fly back. "Oh damn!!" She quickly drew an arrow and chanted a spell in a different language and once again the arrow began glowing a dark-purple haze and quickly fired it at the charging lizard.
-
As the arrow hit him in the shoulder, he recoiled, dropping his blades. "RRAAAGHH" he roared in both rage and agony, before leaping onto phoenix, with the intent to kill, tooth and claw
(do those arrows do anything in particular or just hurt like a banana?)
-
((they slowly or quickly shut down your body depending on the chant... i shot you with a slow shut down, but it does wear off eventually))
Pheonix panics quickly and tries to dogde the crazed lizard.
-
(thank you kindly ^^)
as phoenix dodges him, Golge stumbles and falls over, the effects of the magic arrow, should move slower but the damage done by the shadow flame was speeding up the process. "rrrr whats this? i burn, hot, too hot" he began to panic, his anger turning into fear
-
Pheonix looked at the lizard confused and oddly worried. "Oh god... "
-
Twitching in pain he looked at phoenix "rrrr filthy followerrrrs of light, firrrrst you kill my family, and now you trrrry to kill me" he hissed. suddenly he becsme exhausted "rrrr you win" he said softly, sitting by a tree "rrrr kill me if you desirrrre, just make it quick" he said dejectedly,
-
Pheonix went over to the lizard, cautiously. "I have no interest in killing you," Pheonix said, "let me see your wound."
-
He bared his teeth at her, but in the end he presented his injured shoulder to her "what differrrrence does it make, an injurrrrred perrrrson in these woods arrrrre as good as dead" he snarled, but softly this time
-
Nix looked at the bleeding wound as she slowly pulled out the arrow's head. She put her hand over the wound and applied pressure. "Sorry if this hurts."
-
He simply grunted, " rrrrrr i cant feel it, it has gone numb, why,, i trrrried to kill you, why arrre you helping me?" he asked, the hostility in his voice had all but disappeared
-
Pheonix back up and looked at the lizard. "if you dont want me to help you then i wont." She sneered, completely ignoring his question.
-
"no, no, im not rrready forrr....death, yet, i, am sorrrry" he said calmly
-
Philly slowly wakes up beside a fire somewhere else in the woods. "How did I get here?" he asked himself, taking a look around. He stands up, but collapses to the ground almost immediately. "I'm still weak from that spell" he thought rubbing his head.
-
"First of all, don't attack someone just because they're light...not everyone on one side is out to get the other side, and about that wound, most of the pain is in your head...denizens of shadow don't take much actual damage from their own element...but it does hurt..." He said, walking over to the lizard, pulling out a flask of glowing white liquid...
-
Nix looked at the dragon. "You dont want to fight me again do you?" she asked, the last encounter fresh in her mind. She turned to the lizard. "You'll be fine. You're not going to die." she reassured him.
-
"Assuming he doesn't die of panic, yes, he'll be fine, just need to purify the burn before it corrupts..." and he sat next to the lizard, opening the flask and pouring a few drops onto the burn...and it quickly and painlessly fades away as smoke...
-
Riku had been stood up for a while and watched the proceedings with a snarl on his muzzle "enough of this, I came here to kill, and I don't care who it is...my blade thirsts for blood". His anger and impatience was clear in his voice, it was also emphasised by the growing flames from around his feet.
-
Pheonix watches the dragon carefully. She kneels down in front of the two. "So what do you mean by the followers of light are out to get you?" Nix asked curiously. She quickly stood up remembering Philly was at her camp. "Oh damn... I'll be right back," she said as she dart towards the camp. She saw philly awake but immobile.
-
"If your blade thirsts for blood, then let it have your own...or better yet, I'll force it out of you so your blade can drink you dry!" He said with a somewhat demonic tone as he rose up, his entire body becoming coated in shadow-flame, and 'Wrath' elongating and becoming more sinister...
-
Riku laughed maniacally "you think your words and tricks can scare me? You're nothing but a pathetic insect, my blade will have it's blood...But there is no place for words now, let our actions do the talking, brother of darkness...and we shall see who's blood is spilt". With that he flicked his wrist, sending flames to encircle them both. He had created a fiery arena so nobody can interrupt them.
Once that had finished, he allowed the flames to engulf his body and run along his spear, making him resemble a living flame. A voice quite unlike Riku's echoed across the forest; "Your move"
-
Pheonix saw a bright glow from deep in the forest. "What the....?" She hurried towards the glow after checking on Philly.
-
"Its a bit unfair to surround me in unknown flames...so lets make half....mine.." he said, reaching back with his non-sword hand, and half the ring became shadow-flame, then he made two swings, sending u-shaped waves of shadow-flame towards Riku..
-
Pheonix stopped and shielded her eyes from the glow and heat of the fire. She quickly ran over to the lizard and quickly picked him up, rushing him away from the flames.
-
Riku bowed in agreement before jumping backwards to give himself a bit more reaction time. Using his spear as a pole-vault he leaped over the dark flames, and spun around in the air to bring his spear up and over his head to produce a cartwheel of flames, which he fired at the dragon. He landed back on the ground, panting lightly from the effort.
-
He coats his hands in shadow-flame as he grabs the cart-wheel flame, and it quickly burns out...
-
Golge opened his eyes just in time to see the flames, he looked away expecting pain but, instead he began to move, away from the fire. he looked back and saw his savior, phoenix had helped him yet again. "rrrr i...thank you, perrrrhaps not all light followerrrs arrre bad..." he stood up shakily, and bowed deeply towards her
-
"No problem. I dont think that one should die just because he chose his course of life." She helped him walk through the forest to her camp. "Don't worry about philly he's fine. I took him here because i know how the forest is."
-
Riku watches as his attack is stopped "he's better than I expected, I may have to change my tactics". He thought to himself before launching a couple of fireballs and unleashing a flurry of jabs to follow-up the fire attack.
-
using the flat of 'Wrath' like a shield, he bats the fireballs away, and then tries to cut off the spearhead that is jabbing at him...
-
Golge sniffed the air, the smell of the light still made him nauseous, but he would tolerate it, these people saved him, even after he tried to kill him. "I am...sorrrry, ive had difficulties with the light in the past" he confessed
-
"To tell you the truth... I just chose the Light path. I once too was a Dark follower," she admitted while helping him over to a seat.
-
he looked over at her with wonder "rrrr why change, what is wrrrrong with darrrrkness"
-
Riku suffered a long gash on his forearm from his assault "arrrgh, you have weapons for a reason, idiot!" Standing ready with his spear, he leaped forward, intending to sweep upward and give the dragon a long gash.
-
"Nothing. I just figured, why go around the rest of my life being mad about something that i knew i couldn't solve," She replied, as she sat by the fire.
-
"What...no fire jet?" he asked, as he brought 'Wrath' down to block the spear....
-
memories flooded into golge's mind "rrrrr but i CAN solve this, rrrr i can kill the light followerrrs that did this to me" he shouted , jumping up from his chair, heaving with anger
-
Riku grinned as their blades collided and locked together "oh, you'll get fire, I'm just adding a bit of variation and excitement.....It'd be boring if I just toasted you". He pushed off and landed a few metres away, observing his foe with a trained eye.
-
Pheonix watched him jump up. "Do you even know who did it to you? And once you succeed where will you be then? You will have no more motivation." She stayed calm, completely pushing aside his anger.
-
"If you say so....just remember...even if you fight with everything you have, your opponent might still be holding back..." he said as he raised his arm, creating three smaller spheres of shadow-flame in the air, which fly out and home in on Riku...
-
He twitched at her words "it...was a prrriest, he told them, rrrr the warriorrs, to kill them, all of them, dead...i sworrre i would get rrrevenge on the light" he heaved, trying to calm down
-
Riku threw his spear, impaling one of the spheres on the end. he then pulled out two swords and slashed the two spheres with his own blades enhanced with flames. Jumping towards the dragon, he sliced diagonally-left with one blade and thrusted with the other.
-
"How do you know he isnt gone? So you go on throughout your life killing anyone that defies you, just so you can get to the priest? And still. What would be your motivation to proceed with life AFTER you succeeded in your life's MISSION," She exclaimed. She poked the fire with one of her arrows. Her eyes gazed at the fire, deep in thought.
-
He backed up so the slice wasn't lethal, but had to parry with 'Wrath' to keep from getting any serious wounds...then he does a low-kick, coated in shadow-flame...
-
"i....i....don't know....rrr all these yearrrs, was it all forrr nothing" he crouched down low "rrrr what should i do?"
-
Pheonix came out of her trance. "Well first things first. I say you figure out if the priest is still alive. Then debate on whether his death is really what will make you happy. But you have to keep in mind about the outcome of the situation." She looked at him.
-
he thought carefully "rrrr....if he dies, my families death will be avenged,rrrrr i see no consequences forrr that, but..." he trailed off, trying not to remember
-
"well.... you also need to think about what you will do with your life after your life goal is achieved. Hey, I'm willing to help you find him," She offered. She threw a few more sticks on the fire.
-
"rrr you...would help me still? therrre is something about you followerrrs of light, it is.....interrresting, howeverrr i would not want to trouble you furrrther" he explained, bowing again
-
"what do you mean interesting? Yes I am willing to help. The priest took something from me as well. He deserves all that he recieves. And i would love to watch his death." She said smiling as she took some of the fire and held it in her hand. The fire danced about. Her eyes showed a dark purple haze to them.
-
"rrrrr you know of him!" he jumped up and grabbed her gently by the shoulders "rrrr then we have a common foe, we will help each otherrrr, you will get back what was rrrrr stolen frrrom you, and i will watch him squirrrm in agony when i rrrr kill him"
-
Riku saw the kick coming, but was unable to do anything about it and so let it connect, sending him sliding backwards, a dark burn mark where the blow connected "Impressive". Sheathing the two blades, he picked up his spear once more and thrusted forward, intending to skewer him through the neck, but this time he sent flames shooting from it.
-
She smiled her purple eyes glowing now. "Sounds like a plan. Might i ask you your name first?"
-
thinking quickly, but not that well, he breathed a jet of shadow fire to deter the jet, and then realized he made an opening, and jumped back, putting some space between the spear-head and himself...
-
he straightened himself out and said proudly "rrr I am Golge, last rrrremaining memberrr of the shadow clan, and you arrre?"
-
"Pheonix or Nix. Nice to meet you Golge." She smiled casually and bowed to him.
-
Golge stopped suddenly "what about yourrr frrrriends? will they be joining?" he asked
-
She looked at him, he face stern but still some what gentle. "I have no friends... well at least not at the moment." She stood up and stretched.
-
he nodded, "rrrr then we go when you arrre rrready" he looked around, found a spot against a tree, and sat down
-
He stops breathing shadow-fire and gets out of the jet's range.."Look, as much as I want to stay and fight....theres someone who still needs burns to tend to..so I'll be leaving" He said, parting his side of the arena, and dashing off towards a small flicker of a campfire...forgetting to turn off his shadow-aura.
-
Nix's eyes quickly fade back to normal as the dragon reappears. "Everything ok?" She asked looking at his small but seemingly noticeable wound.
-
He looks at the already closing up wound "Well, someone wanted to start a fight...but after awhile, I realized it was going to take a bit...and whats-his-face is still in need of treatment...afterall...the flask only helped ease the pain...the real wound is gettin worse..." he said, squatting down...
-
"I could have told you that." Nix watched the dragon carefully, still not sure about him, she still barely knew him.
-
He smiles at Phoenix..." Oho...so you know about Shadow-flames do you?" he asks...really curious.....
-
golge felt worried for a moment "worrrse? but i feel alrright, arrre you surre?" he asked the dragon
-
"yes i do. You'll be fine. Scaly will fix you up." She looked at the dragon hoping that he wouldn't read her like a book. Her eyes flickered a purple haze for a moment.
-
He noticed the flicker...and decided to talk to her after dealing with the lizard..."you feel alright now...since you just recently got burned...but until you get an acutal purge...the inner burn is going to rot your insides before next month arrives..."
-
golge twitched slightly <rrrotting insides arrrre no good, any help would be apprrrreciated" he said, trying to sound as nice as possible
-
"Good...now this will hurt...but it will cancel out the rotting effect..." he said as his index and middle talon sparked a white flame, and stabbed into the burn site...counter-balancing the shadow burn...
-
golge clenched his fangs, and withstood the pain, his fists clenched, he waitied for it to be over
-
Nix watched the dragon. She was unknowing of the flicker. She lay back and gazed at the stars as her eyes slowly opened and close again and again.
-
((jeez, i had to catch up by reading about... 6-7 pages =^..^= heh))
(Going back a bit) Comatose got up from Kor knocking her off and growled. Then the leopard threatened, Philly seemed safe in Phoenix's camp, Golge was hurt, and getting helped. Data wondered if she should respond to the leopards threat or see who Phoenix really was. She hid under he bushes between the camp and battle valley so she could know what was going on. She heard some of conversation but finally couldn't ignore the fire. Data ran under a tree ~ fire shot at her as she ducked 'My was that close.' Kor went to the camp and Comatose came out a little to make sure Snowy wouldn't go threat the camp, ready to fight in case need be....
-
((Sowwy :3))
Foxx grunted and slowly sat, shivering slightly, "Ugh... that really hurt..." he mumbled, looking around and noticing the leopard still there.
-
He pulls out his fingers, and the puncture instantly heals up, leaving no scab or scar..."All done...or did I hit you somewhere else too?" He asked, giving an occasional glance at Phoenix...
-
Philly opens his eyes breaking the trance he had set himself in to recover his energy and looks around the campfire. Seeing that there were three new people here now his eyes grew wide. He rubbed his eyes trying to see if it was real and sure enough it was. "Who the heck are all of you exactly? And why are we sitting casually around a campfire?" Philly had know idea of what had been going on for the past few minutes.
-
Pheonix looked over at the dragon occasionally. Why does he keep looking at me? She sat up and looked at Philly. "The reason your here is because if i left you there immobile, you'd be dead by now," she said looking at the dragon once more.
-
"I could have handled myself back there. I didn't need your help." he said trying to sound tough but in his head he was glad she saved him. "Besides, I believe it was your fault that I was in that condition to start with."
-
*yea well what else was i supposed to do. You were attacking people. Your welcomes by the way," She said, ignoring his attitude.
-
Golge looked at the dragon, "rrrr it is fine...now......thanks." he flexed his arms, checking for pain or damage, then nodded and looked over at philly
-
"Why is that physco chameleon looking at me like that?" Philly wondered. "What do you want?" he asked Golge looking back at him, ignoring Phoenix.
-
Pheonix lays back down and continues looking at the stars.
-
'rrrrr hehehe, even you werrre saved by the light" he replied, noticing the tone in philly's voice
-
Nix smiled, as Golge figured Philly out, even thought she already knew how he felt. "Oh let him have his fun," She chuckled, looking at Golge.
-
"You two are insane. I would never need the help of a light follower!" he said standing up getting ready to leave. He was mad that they had figured him out.
-
"Fine, have it your way," She looked at him, feeling as though she was to blame for his unhappiness for some odd reason.
-
Golge laughed with glee "rrrr yes yes, mighty philly, saved by the light, and still ungrrrrrateful forrr it" he clapped his hands and danced up and down, "wherrrre is the blade you sought frrrom the leoparrrd?" he asked teasingly
-
Pheonix chuckled wickedly. "Oh Golge, let him be. It's bad enough i saved him."
-
"You two are lucky I don't dispose of you right now." looking at the dragon he said "I don't know your story, and quite frankly I don't care, but just don't try to pull anything funny." "And I will be back when I get that blade, or spear or whatever it is. I can't really seem to remember which it is, but it doesn't matter." he said towards Pheonix and Golge.
-
"yea yea yea," she continued to chuckle, her eyes flashing a purple haze again, "just keep telling yourself that. I can just as easily hit you with an arrow like before." Nix looked at golge, and then at the dragon.
-
"Ahhh that's right you can. But your forgetting one thing mate, this time I know it's coming, and I know what to expect." he says with a hint confidence. Smiling he turns to walk away.
-
"Don't be too sure of yourself," She lay back down and slowly closed her eyes, her confidence in the tone of her voice.
-
Before walking away Philly kicks up dirt on the fire, showing his dissatisfaction for them. He walks off into the woods without looking behind him. "Fools. They have no idea of what I can accomplish."
-
"Then why don't you show us," Nix shouted after him, as she started up a large fire again.
-
Philly ignored her and kept going, but soon enough, got lost. "Great, this is just what I need right now."
-
Nix decided to go into the woods to get more firewood. This place is actually really creepy at night
-
((Just incase you want to know... I'll be gone until Sunday evening. I'll just try to catch up then))
Comatose wondered if Foxx was alright and sneaked through the trees to go check on him. She kept her eye on the leopard just in case, ready to spring at any time. Data continued over to Foxx quietly.
-
Foxx tried to get up slowly. He shook his head a bit and looked around, seeing the leopard. He grabbed his sword and huffed, I better get out of here... he thought, starting to slowly walking away, towards some trees.
-
(Bleh, stupid internet, sorry for not posting, internet was down)
Snowy nodded at the dragon as he left, he was a worthy opponent and so the leopard honoured his request, extinguishing the flames around him. He was about to leave when he spotted Foxx, but he decided against fighting him and continued on into the forest
-
((sadly i was gone all weekend!))
Nix opened her eyes, after dozing off for 15 minutes. The fire had gone out, the smoke still rising from the embers.
-
Koro had used up all his strength in casting magic against his alignment, and had decided to sleep with Phoenix....
-
Nix saw the dragon lying next to her. hmmm
-
Golge patrolled the campsite, he didn't need sleep, he would make sure no harm befell his new allies
-
Comatose saw Foxx leave and then Snowy. 'Well, I guess there's no danger at the moment.' She hoped Foxx would find he camp and stay with them. Data wondered if she should continue on her mission or if she should go to the camp. 'It would seem no one would miss me, but what about Kor. I don't just want to leave him.' She climbed a tree in the shadows and curled up for a bit to think and straiten some of her confusion and sudden sadness.
-
Nix awoke, birds chirping in the tall trees that over hung the campsite. Her arms stretched high over her head. She lay back down with a thud and realized the dragon next to her. She jumped at first, but relaxed.
-
Feeling the sudden drop on him, he stirred, opening one eye and smirking at Phoenix..."Did I scare ya 'child'?"
-
"One, I'm no child. Two, no not at all." Nix smiled as she gazed up at the clouds.
-
Smiling, he got up, preparing to pick her up. "Then I guess being lift off your feet by someone else isn't scary at all then!" he said, picking her up and taking off into the air, making sure not to drop her, but making it look like he might....
-
Nix clung to him at first, but realizing that she looked ridiculous, she loosened her grip.
-
Making a hiss-like imitation of laughter, he lifted Phoenix into a full hug and then decided to poke fun at her "Ah...so you did get scared!"
-
"No! When did i show FEAR!" Nix looks down at the ground and then buries her face into his chest.
-
Satisfied with her physical reaction, he floats back down to the camp..."I just wanted to see you freak out...which you did..." he said with a silly grin...
-
Frightened to let go, She clung to Chrono's chest. "Thanks! That makes me feel better." she mutters.
-
Riku looked up as he saw the dragon fly off with somebody in his talons, it looked as though he was going to drop them, but he thought better and walked on before seeing Golge standing guard
-
After walking aimlessly through the woods for some time, Philly finally steps out into a clearing, but was sad to see that it was the same place where he had began. "Great, I've been walking in a circle!"
-
Golge noticed Riku approaching, and waved his hand,"rrrr you come in peace?" he asked nervously, shifting from side to side and gripping his swords instinctively
-
"Unless he wants a rematch...I believe so..."
-
I wake up and look at the dragon. "I still don't know who you are." I look at him curiosity dancing in my eyes.
-
Riku looked to the dragon "unless it is your wish for us to cross blades once more, then I come in peace for now...I have no wish to fight all of you, no I am simply passing through" Looking at Golge "So you have allied yourself wish these lot have you?" He indicated to the other two figures with a paw.
-
Golge shifted again, looking at his feet he replied "rrrr only to one, she said, she would...rrrr help me... and they both rrrrr saved my life" he glanced up at Riku, almost looking ashaed of himself for allying with the light
-
A flicker of annoyance dashed across Riku's face before he concealed it "Fine....if that is your wish...I shall give you thanks for your assistance and be on my way." He turned and began to walk away from the three
-
Golge gave a nod and recited his old clans goodbye "may darrrkness be yourrrr guide" then he punded his chest with his left fist, and watched Riku go
-
Seeing Riku walk away Philly runs out from behind the tree he was behind and chased after him. When he got close enough he said "I still side with the darkness."
-
Riku turned and raised an eyebrow "is that so? Good for you. What do you want, a trophy?" he sighed and continued "What do you want? I'm assuming you didn't chase after me just to tell me that".
-
"oh ummm, no reason. Just thought you might want some company"
-
Looking at Philly, he shook his head "look, I travel and work alone...maybe if we had a similar goal we could travel together" he waited for Philly's response, shifting his weight from one foot to the other.
-
Philly looks down at the ground. he couldnt tell riku that he was only going to follow him to steal his weapon. "I suppose we dont really have a common goal."
-
Riku nods and begins to walk off. But stops and sighs "look, I'm travelling to the next town...you can accompany me until we get there if you want?"
-
"Well that sounds like a splendid idea. Where is the next town?" he said looking into the distance
-
Riku points. "west. Over a desert. You sure you still want to come?" he questioned, adjusting his equipment so it was a little comfier to carry
-
"Im positive" he said confidently. "I have nothing else here"
-
"Okay, then lets go." He replied. Taking a few steps forward he looked at the ground "this vegetation is annoying" he said shortly as he burned it out of the way. As he walked, he reflected "I'm glad to be getting out of this damned forest...it was getting rather repetitive"
-
He turned to Phoenix and smiled "You already know who I am...but what I am is something that you might never know" he said sticking his tongue out playfully
-
Comatose had woken and flew to the camp and watched until the two worked there way out of it. Then Kor turned to Phoenix and stuck his tongue out. 'Well it looks like their both in good paws...' Data flew into the air and saw the sky and more than half of the sky was forever night. 'The dark is almost done taking over.' She couldn't let this happen. She grazed the tree tops and continued her mission, so far, alone.
-
He retracted his tongue, because he just realized he ditched Data, then he started looking around, sniffing the air, and finnaly caught the unique scent...
don't you dare leave without telling me whats going on! He thought as he flapped his wingly madly and took off at an almost super-sonic speed towards the direction of the scent
-
Data felt someone following and speed up weaving in and out of trees. She cloaked herself as she flew into the shadow veering a little off her course to take them off track.
-
dammit, she's at it again! He thought as he adjusted his movements to keep up with Data....
-
Data went a little faster as he kept up. Then she angled strait down and did an all together halt. She wasn't trying to be mean or funny but she giggled a bit as she watched him speed past then almost hit a tree...
-
He noticed the scent trail stopped, and he grabbed a tree, and swung around it, catapuling him right towards Data..
-
Data sprung up and leaped into the air and went through fog 80 ft ahead and twisted deep in to it. The forest was thick like the fog. Usually this stopped scent and visual contact.
-
He tried to follow, but as soon as he gets in the fog, he loses all track of her...."DATAAA!!" He roared as he tried to get her attention...
-
Riku continued on through the forest, coming to the outskirts and sighing slightly with relief "It feels nice to be out of that damn forest". Looking around, Riku adjusted his stance, pulling out his spear "wait...something smells...strange"
-
Stopping beside Riku, Philly says "Sorry, that's probably me. I had a can of beans earlier."
-
Riku let out a chuckle "No, something else. Regardless we should continue". He began to walk again, the silence growing. After a while he decided to break it "So...what's your story? I'm guessing you have a reason for following Shadow"
-
"My story? Well Really I just figured tat the bad guys always have more fun. Really the only reason I joined the darkness was because I wanted adventure, and I didn't want to wait for it to find me." Philly says walking beside him.
