Your always by your self thats the point in the end your all you've got

But if thee is one thing that can break that fact its love...eternall long lasting love...



My journey began long ago :;Willow looked to her city as tit was rebuilt,Darin and she now sat side by side as they had long ago:: I often wonder if I could go abck if I would change anything

Would you? ::he asked with a smile::

Not a moment,not even the dark times would I change,nor what happened as of late

:;He looked to her,his wife his lover the mother of his son,they had been parted for years now.God and Goddess she able to walk in the mortal realm he would never be able to:: I have missed seeing you Willow..::he would admit:: I know you have found a new love,out side of Crendias realm...the love of an elven man...

::Willow did not look shocked that he knew:: Yes I have,I am married again.. it has been a long time since we were... :;she gazed to him:; even friends...what are we now? Allies,Comrades....

Soul mates love...::he smiled:; I killed you that amde me a god, and made you a goddess my punishment was lossing you...to my self, you deserve a good man and a good life...with out death and darkness

I will always be a deamon hunter and slayer and mage,as well as a goddess,torn bewteen two sides you know very well I am not all good...death comes with my line of work you know this Darin,you lived it

::he smirked:: yes I know,goddess of light with a dark secret, you all ways did fall for the men who ahd a tinge of dark to them.. Aye yes detah follows you like a pup at its masters heels,Slayer and mage life by the sword and stake.... :his silver-blue hues looked to her:: are you happy?

Yes...its not what you and I had its very different.... ::those emerald hues looked to him,she saw him as the god he was now his long silver hair his blueish silver eyes, but in her mind she saw him as the man long ago that she had come to love:: do you ever think about our past?

Often...::he placed his hand upon her shoulder:: I do not deserve your friendship or your trust...

I never said I trusted you Darin...but you are helping to rebuild this city,penence or not.. you knew I would be here.. so tell me why ...why have you come....?

:;Willow left Darin and Crendia and shifted to that wrold in rhydin of rhydin.Somewhere hidden in its past in its future. She sat beside the man she loved now.That elven man Chrissium. Willow watched him as he slept. He hadnt woken in the time she'd been gone. A soft sigh escaped her lips as she looked to the moonless sky.Thinking of Shea now.Of what that woman that powerful mage was going throguh.Willow could nearly feel her pain.Willow remembered her days of love and passion with Darin as if they were yesterday,but she wondered if she could have gone through what Shea did.Knowing the love is there and not just a lie,knowing there is desire there but not being able to...savor in it. Willow and Darin had savored in thier passions many times that was proof enough by their son. Shaun. Willow sighed again, he was dead. What mother could bare the death of their child? Shea had risked her very life to save Aiden, Willow wished she could have done the same for hers.

Her past was nothing but long lost memeories of blood and death. Loss and love for the moments she could savor in it.

Long ago Willow the goddess that she is now was a normal mortal woman. well not normal,but mortal at least.


In a village now long gone by Rhydins or any standard she was born and raised by simple villagers who tended to their farms and familys. They tended to flocks of sheep and goat,and farmed their feilds in the spring for winter,the children were put to easy labor cutting woods or tending to getting eggs or milk. Willow was born in to this world.When she was very young her father as well as the other men were called away fromt he village by the count of the country to war. None returned...

years later when Willow was a teen age girl her mother died...and so she went to live with her aunt. A year passed and Willow went for a walk one day. Down tot he river by the grotto,to catch some fish and harvest some wild berries. She sat by the river looking deeply in to the waters when a man, appeared as if from nothing behind her. "Willow" he said, "you need to come with me now...."

even then Willow was armed with magic that she did not understand nor did she use it,but she was armed with one very simple dagger she turned to face the man. Tall handsome,long dark hair and bright blue eyes. He smiled to her " I will not harm you, but you need to come with me now. Your destiny is waiting..." He offered his hand and she started to rise then heard a blood cuttiling scream. She looked towards the village and saw smoke. " its too late to save them Come with me." he pleeded with her but she didnt listen running back towards town. It was in flames women and children ran young boys stood up against beasts huge feral beasts thatw ere driven on by soemthing Willow heard what soudned like a hunting horn and dark riders appeared meters behind her, she ran in to the village past falling buildings and death towards her aunts house it was all ready gone..as was her aunt.

She ran past it when someone pulled her in to the wrecked building. A cold hand covered her mouth so she wouldnt scream. Past thwe house walked armored men. Some men cloaked and hidden, and hell hounds and feral beasts, behind them ona huge war horse rode the leader the man none dare to look at, his appearance was dark, his face was hidden, by cloaks hood but thsoe red eyes glowed as if they were some holy star. He had many amassed weapons all around him the hell hound stuck their noses in to every house alone the way. Willows emerald hues shifted abck tot he man who held her close to him as the hell hounds came closer, he moved her tot he floor and laid on top of her. She moved against him he pressed his lips to her ear. " shhh, I am not going to hurt you,just stay still...and try not to breathe."

Willow held her breath it was hard to breath under him as it was. The hell house poked their noses in to that house in which the two hid and sniffed, then they walked on the armored men and their learder going forward..

It felt like hours had passed when the night setlled in. Finally the man rose off of her and held his hand out to her. The moon light played over his features. he was shirtless,a long coat around his shoudlers,black pants and boots. Dark hair,,, and dark eyes. Handsome was not a good enough word for him. Willow took his hand and rose. "Thank you..."

He nodded, " your not supposed to be here slayer, wheres Jueleick?" Willow quriked her brow to him. "who?"

The man looke dout the window, and shook his head... "never mind, looks like I'll have to tell you..but we need to get out of here,they will be back..." He held out his hand to her. She took it and they left her village behind. She had nothing to take with her,only some gold or what every the could find amonug the ashes amoung the niht light they ran towards the woods.

Soon they sat inside a huge hollow trunk of a tree. He offered her his coat. and she took it. He smiled looking to her. " your younger than the last one... " He knew she didnt know who she was...he smiled looking upon her so fiar so beautiful...he had lived for four hundred years and neverseen a woman like her. "My anme is Vincent." She smiled, "Willow..." He nodded, " Jule's was supposed to find you and stop you from going back to town..." "the man by the river?" He smiled, " oh good so he did try.. Jule's is a good man, I've known hima long time, I am going to take you to his vila so he can train you." "train me for what?" "for the war that is coming. You have power, great power in amgic and else where. " his cold hand touched her hand so warm. It had been ages since he had fed on human blood,ages since he felt thisw ay about anyone. He lifted his hand up, " get some sleep, we'll move again at dusk." She looked in to his dark eyes, and nodded.

He with drew from her neck tasting ehr blood on his lips in his mouth feeling he power flow through him like tiny bolts of lightning.He graoned against her he could feel himself near his own climax, he moaned softly through gritted teeth in an animalistic voice, almost more of a growl as his body shook against her, sinking close to hold her tight against him, his lips found hers in a graceless passionate kiss, holding her lithe silken form against his rigid hard flesh,his hand raced down her body sliding his finers down leaving soft red lines from his nails along her perfect hind.His other hand got lost in those thick brown locks.His lips lifted to her ear as he licked away the blood. "you feel so good,the way your blood tatses..you body so hot..."

She arched her back softly as she felt his hand at her hind, she smiled feeling his other hand in her hair. She shuddered and shivered those rushes of wamrth going through her over and over again... she could sense that he was holding back that release. As he pulled her body up against his roughly she moaned deeply that great passion and pleasure welled within her as she held back that final realease. She heard his words with in ear, as she bit down upon her lower lip then gasp...and shuddered... her body tensed...she was holding back as best she could but she could feel her climax coming...so close to the brink..."Oh Vincent..." biting in to that lower lip hard she shivered as warmth rushed through her, and a loud moan escaped her lips, and seemed to echo off the walls of thier room, her nails dug deeply in to his back, as her body pushed up in to his...her whole body quaked with excitement and pleasure.


His touch was like the hottest wasteland sun mingled with frigid ice like the touch of arctic waters everywhere his bare flesh met hers, an electric fire moving through her body as his hands traveled her body, his burning touch rising and falling along the small of her back, his eyes meeting hers as they flew open, shimmering darkned gaze locked deep within her own emerald eyes, his passion burnt within his glowing stare. "Willow..."


Those emerald hues glowed that soft green, as she starred up to him shivering, beads of sweat rolling down the length of her arms, every had faded away expect him,and that passion that ahd arisen between them.


His face softened as his eyes met hers, seeing deep within her in that moment of their union, he could contain himself no longer, his eyes flaring like a wildfire, her skin burnt with pleasure and pain at his touch, arching his great broad back to drive himself into her with a few more steady hard thrusts, feeling the sharp slap of his body as he came inside her..."I'm in love with you...I tried to stop myself. But I can't help it..." His words enary moaned as he gazed down at her.

She shivered more so feeling her self explode with passion and desire, her gaze never left his a soft mummer of a moan escaped her lips. "Vincent..." She looked up in to his eyes,she ahd fallen for him the moemnt she saw him,from those first moments at the village. "I'm in love with you...."

He sunk down slowly against her, groaning softly at his release, his lips sinking to meet hers once more, his pace slowed now, his body covered in a thin layer of strained perspiration, he slid down upon his side, wrapping his arms about her lightly to draw her closer, pulling the edge of their soft blanket across their naked forms " My lover, you're a goddess."..he murmured softly into her ear between the playful peck of his kisses. "I didnt hurt you did I. ?" Licking at those bite marks in her slender neck,alson speaking of the forcefullness of thier love making.

"I'm fine...it felt amazing..every bit of it." Her lips met his softly. They lay there side by side holding each other till dusk came then they were dressed and on the move again,now closer than before he had tasted her blood, the first human blood he had in years now..he could feel her pulsing through him he was barely able to keep from taking her there in the woods as they walked.

Soon enough they came to a huge Vila in the middle of no where.Out side sat the man from ther iver smoking a long pipe dressed in all black.His blue hues looked to Vincet and Willow. "took you two long enough." His eyes looked to Vincent,then to Willow. " you and I need to talk..." He pulled Vincent away... "You drank human blood I can see it in your eyes..dont tell em your going to go all wild on me again...I don't want to..." "I fed off her..." Vincent cut Jule's off, "I made love to her,and fed off her..." Jule's looked to him from behind those thin rimmed glasses... "Your serious....?" Vincent nodded... "I'm in love with her..." Jule's hit his own head with his hand, " oh good god man...what were you thinking your a vampire she is a slayer..." He shook his head... " she gave her self to you willingly?"

"Yes, I did..." Willow looked to Jule's "I know its taboo...but...I wanted to be with him, I still do...I don't care what he is..."

"Your in love with each other then..." Jule's sighed, "you two..." Vincent smirked looking to the door of the Vila as it opened there stood a tall woman with long black hair and softly tanned skin.Her eyes were soft and green. "Look whos talking...I see Kathryns here..." Smirking. Willow looked to see the woman standing in the door way wearing that soft purple robe. Jule's smiled, " well you can't be the only man that enjoys the woman in his life...I have wants and needs too Vincent my old friend..."

The two shared a good laugh...and the three went inside for a nice long chat between the four of them with hot tea...and sweets.

from the beginning


::They met,they wooed...they loved,from the beginning::

::Two years passed since the time they had met,and in that time Willow came to know many new friends::

:;All who were lik her,deamon hunters,slayers,uses of magic and alike.::

::She and her now best friend opened an Inn The Rose Inn::

::Outside of what is now known as Rhydin,beyond the hills and valleys ina wide open space stood this old inn,that they ahd worked on so hard for the past few months. Darin ahd gone away again and Willow ahd been left alone to wonder if what they shared was anything more than just some slight attraction. Now on this day she stood behind the bar at the inn, her friends sat :Sammy,Isabelle,Julie,August, and Andrea.::

::All had talents for slaying deamons and amoung them, three had magic, Willow,Sammy, and Isabelle.::

::they talked and laughed as they sipped there tea of drank their coffee, it was training night and theyw ere all decke dout in their classic gear. Willow ahd aquited that long silver longsword, that Darin ahd amde just for her, and it was then that the door opened and a man came through the inn door...::

::Sammy looked up as she heard the bell on the door ring, slowly she tucked that stake in to her jacket pocet, the man at the door was tall, his hair was long softly sandy brown his eyes were blueish green. All the women took note of him, dressed like a knight from some time long past with shinning armor and all...:: "Good eve my ladies," ::;he spoke softly nodding to each woman at the bar as he crossed to an empty stool and slowly sat, his eyes reste dupon the fair tenderness.:: "My I have a mug of ale,My lady?" :;He posed the question to wlllow, and will poured him an ale and sat the mug before him.:: "There you go, welcome to the Rose Inn"

::He smield and took her hand in his and kissed the top:; "thank you,fair tenderness..." ::he took a sip of ale and turned his gaze down the bar, they were all beautiful women..each of different from the next. Just then four more women walked thoguhtew door,the man at the bar had noted how well aremd all the ladies at the bar were,with short or long swords, and now four more well armed yet lovelt women came throught he door, he thought it might be his lucky night::

"Hey ladies, your late" ::Willow called to the women as they walked in and took the last seats at the bar:

::The one whos at next to him smiled to him:: "Hiya.." :;she flahsed him a wink::

::Willow smirked:: "be on your best behavior now,Summer. We have our first paying... customer..." ::willow smiled tot he man:; don't mind my friends sir, its only the second night this inn has been up and running,My names willow..." ::she held out her hand::

:;He smiled:: "oh its no problem, James.. nice to meet you...Miss Willow"

:;Willow shook his hand, and these are my friends,looking to them each::"I'll let them o the intros if they want." ::she slipped back in tot he kitchen and James smiled.::

"I'm Summer," ::said the woman with the long light brown hair and eyes as bright as he had ever seen ::

::He shook her hand. with a smile. One y one the four that came in last intoduced them selves::

"Marina" said the one with the long red hair thatw as puleld high behind ehr head, as she shifted from her seat to go join Summner who had moved to the lounge::

::Sammy and Is watched their friends flirt with the man, as they spoke whsipered words to Julie,Andrea and August..::

"I'm Eve..." ::The lovely woamn witht he pourle hair said to him,as she held out that gloved hand. He took it ans shook it softly before kissing the top, she cast hima wink ebfore walking to join Summer and Marina in the lounge::

::He looked to the five that were whsipering then to the last fo the other new four...::

"Talia.." ::she spoke witha soft accent as she took up ehr tea cup and joined the others in the lounge::

::he watched them with much intrest, but his eyes looked back to the kitchen door...waiting for the fair tenderness to come out again::

::Then at the end of the bar the two with blonde hair rose up and walked back in to the kicthen...::

"Don't mind us darlin..its nothin personal..." ::Said the one with the long three tones hair of auburn,red and brown... as she sipped her coffee:: "I'm Andrea,this is Julie.." ::poining tot he one with the short reddish brown hair:: "And this is August.." to the one on ehr left woth the long black ahir that shwon in the light to have soft auburn hilights."

::James smiled:: "a pleasure ladies..." ::his hues looked back to that kictehn door as those three left the bar to join the others in the lounge..::


::Thent he two blondes walked back out and to the lounge then the one witht he brown hair, Willow::

::she smield to him:: "that will be two gold please"

::he smield as he noted his mug was dry, he placed two gold in her hand::" for room and board?"

::willow smiled:: "depneds on what ye be needing, soemthing simple or something more lavish..."

"simple please"

" three golds a night..."

::he nodded:: "I'd like to stay a week "

::she nodded:: "that would be twenty one golds, at the end of it, it inculdes food and drinks as well... " ::she placed a small key in his hand:: " room 23, when ever you like.."

::he smiled to ehr and rose to his feet and crossed up to his room::

::it was good timing for her once they heard his door close they allw ere gone out in tot he night in to teams to hunt down some vampires and other deamons running about... they wouldnt be back till dawn::

"No he's bound to oath now too"

::The night had gone on and they all sat there Isabelle,Willow and Sammy talking to James letting him know the jist of what they did.::

:;After about four times running it over with him, her udnerstood. Then that night they all went out again he held down the fort so -to-speak:;

;;When they came back Eve was gone..the ladies looked like hell,bloody messes the most fo them, save for Willow,Sammy and Isabelle.They'd lost another slayer,another friend another tomb would soon be in that back yard near that tree, where the others he had seen were::

Death comes to us all.

"The life of a slayer is filled with death" ::Willow said softly as she gazed across to Isabelle and Sammy. Those three had been together a long time. That was apparent,their friendship was so soild.::

"Every deamon hunter,slayer all of here, everyone one of us knows that some day some where we'll met the one deamon, or vampire that will her life." ::Isabelle looked around as the other women walked in to the room. Eve was gone,dead.::

::James looked to who was left, now two more graves would be plotted in to that yard. Marina's and Eve's. He looked around past all of those left: Talia,Summer,August,Andrea,Julie. Then the three leaders. Willow,Sammy and Isabelle. Who would be the next to fall in battle. He had to wonder for a moment why they did what they did. Oath and honor he understood, and then he realised he udnerstood it more than ever. He would put his life on the line for king and country. He ahd many times, and since his mission to find the daughter of the lordship, he knew now somehow that fate had sent him here. The lords duaghter had been taken in the night.By a mysetious foe. :: "I think,I understand....why I am here." James said softly.

::Willow looked over to him witha soft smile, he had come in to their lifes as a guest for the inn, and now he knew their secret,one of few. Darin knew about them too. He too though was a hunter of deamons, and now was off on some cursade.::

"I think the man that took my lords daughter was a...."

"A vampire" ::Talia chimed in... as she sat back in to her chair, her arm was broken, out of them all she had nearly been the one to go with Eve, to that place beyond.::

"This daughter your looking for, whats she look like?" ::Julie asked softly as she warmed her sore hands upon the flames in the hearth.::

" Shes young,lovely. Her name is Maria DelMonte. She has short blondeish brown hair and blue green eyes." ::James spoke softly about her, thinking about how he had not protected her well enough.::

"Maria":: Willow breathed the name thinking about all the people she ahd saved from vampires over the years, names and faces flashed before her eyes, but no maria's and now one close to how he described her. If this maria had been taken by a vampire it was more than likely that she was all ready dead,or changed.::

Vampires are strict sometimes: they can kill you, feed off of you till you die, or feed off you till you beg to live, and then they might change you to be like them. But mostly they will just kill you...

::Willow smiled thinking back to the few vamps and deamons she'd runa cross in ehr few years thatw ere good, Vince....his dark eyes and haor flashed before her face,his loving embrace....::

::she knew that not all vamps or deamons were evil, as did the co-leaders: ,Sammy and Isabelle knew that not every creature of the night or day was evil.::

::In their few years together the three, had seen only a hand full of vamps that could walk in the day light, some were day wlakers made in the day so they could walk in it, some were old vamps,who had lived long enough to gain that ability. Now Willow thoght back to those days where she had saved Vince from the sun light, by now he too might be able to walk in the day...like any normal man.::

::She often wondered if he knew where she was, none of ehr friends there not even her closest ones knew she had once loved and been witha avmpire, thsoe marks on ehr neck had long since healed, and the scar hat might have been left... she had healed with magic. Her emerald hues looked to James, then to Is and Sammy.:: "Take Julie and Summer with you on morning patrol."

::The two nodded and Julie and Summer rose up and followed Sammy and Is out the back door. Then Andrea,August and Talia went up stairs to rest for the day.::

James looked across the table at Willow. She had a ffew cuts on ehr arms and legs through her sleeves and pants.A bruise ehre and there her long brown hair was a slight bit messy but he still smiled at yher. Her beauty was more than just on the outside, it was inside, in her heart and soul. :: "I am sorry about Eve"

::Willow nodded:: " the funny thing is we were all taught that we were the only ones,the only hunter or slayer. by our mentors our teachers... ":: She thought about Jules and Kathy, wondering if they were still out there some where.Shed not seen nor heard from them since the day she left.::

" Are there just women... who do this?"

::Willow smiled,:: " no there are hunters who are men, anyone can hunt and kill demaons, freelance style you know, but only a few of us have that birth bound oath of it: Myself, Is, Sammy,Summer and August. We were born to be, the rest of the ladies here are hunters,trained but not born with the oath tied to them."

::James nodded, looking to her in the fire light. The day had newly dawned but the inn was still slightly cold.::

::Outside Sammy, Is, Julie and Summer patroled the out lying forests for any day time deamons or vamps.::

::James was the only paying guest, Will let everyone else stay for free, though a few of them still chipped in. hardly a soul came out this far,hardly a soul knew this inn was there.::

The Rose Inn...

::Willow had opened it to be a place where she could be anything but who and what she was, but in the end she couldnt escape her destiny.::

::Another month would come and go and James would stay there at the inn, every so often leaving for a few days, trhen returning to find that Now Julie as gone, as well as Andrea.. two more plots of graves i n that back yard behind the inn. Death really was apart of this nightly war they all waged, he had seen it him self a few times. He often asked willow how those who were barried back there died.. and she would tell him, in vivid detail, someone missed one shot, or missed blocking one move, and a neck would snap, or a vamp would sink their fangs in to a neck, or a deamon would cut their head from their shoulders with a wicked looking blade...::

No matter how skilled you are, how well armed you are, never underestimate your foes,you can kill them, but they can kill you

death is what a slayer bretahes, she makes it with her hands

with every kick, with evey punch...

a slayer must awlays have her weapon at the ready, a vampire all ready has theirs....

They were lucky all of them to have that palce to stay, most of those girls,those women, had no family left to go back to, some of their family had been killed by deamons,hince thier hunter like prowless...some of them had never known their mother or father, and some like willow had lost their only known family long ago...

It was one late night when they all were out and James was holding down the inn again that Darin.. came back...

He walked through the door and the two men locked eyes.....


so began another chapter.....

there can not be light with out darkness, they work hand in hand light morning and night. The shadows will welcome any who wish it.

::Taila ran fast and out of sight, and Auguat and Summer could not keep up they gave up after losing ehr in the woods:: "Well now we'll have to go back and say we lost her..." :;august sighed

"I think we might need to camp out till morning and see if we can pick up her trail ::summer admitted::

"Your right,okay lets find some fire wood..." ::off the two went to make upa camp site::

::Through the woods Sammy and Is tracked Darin till they lost sight of him:: "damn he's good..." ::Issy smirked::

"We lost him, lets head back to the inn, and hope James or August and Summer had more luck than we did" ::Sammy sighed::

::Deep in the forest,James tracked Willow with more success::

"Will! Wait!" ::He ran faster::

::Willow ran faster, she was quick, tears ran down her cheeks:: "leave me alone James...!"

::He picked up his pace:: "No!"

::Deep in those woods a trio of Vamps were making their nightly plans to go out and have some fun, when Willow blew by them, now heres the thing about being a slayer, every deamon every vampire,knows who you are::

::The vamps watched her run by then turned and ran after her as well, every vampires dream, to kill the slayer, at least one fo them, to drink of her blood was suppsoed to be a very erotic experience.::

::James saw the vamps chasing after her, he knew she was armed but he didnt know if she knew they were there:: "Damn it..." ::he muttered lucky for him he was well armed too, but Willow was fastt and so were those vamps:: "I gotta do something..."

::he ran faster trying to go around the vamps,cut them off before they got to Willow.::

The darkness was rising in the west, the sun for sorrow wept at the sight of that wicked moon bathed in red light.

A slayer musta lways have ehr weapon ready, even in times of sorrow, for darkness feeds on that fear, that sorrow that great pain

::When dawn broke everyone went back on the move, Talia was hididng in the woods snickering about ehr wonderful plot, and Darin was tracking her. Sammy and Issy walked throught he front door of the inn, and went up for a hour of shut eye ebfore Augusta nd Summer came back to do the same. Two hours later Willow and James got back:: "I'll go wake the ladies up you mkae us some coffee and tea,along with breakfast,if your going to stay ehre for free like the rest of them, you'll have to earn your keep." :;She flashed him that dazling smile and wlake dup stairs to rouse the women. While James went to work on coffee,tea and breakfast. Another hour later the five emereged changed,toting weapons of every type. They sat at the bar and James sereved them their chocie of tea or coffee along with his hearty breakfast, which was grealy enjoyed by all::

::Once fed and ready the six made their way back out in tot he woods towards that house from the other night, any vamps left there sleeping in dark corners would die:;

:;They cased the outside first,looking in windows and such before Issy broke down the door and they flanked in ward,August and Summer took the basement,Issy and Sammy two the first level and James and Willow went top level to check for Maria,dead alive or gone, none would be worth seeing to James eyes Willow knew this, as she looked to him, they reached the door that led in to the lavish bed room :: "I can not promise you that she'll be alive or even in there..but prepare your self..." ::She spun and kicked down the door which flew tot he other side of the room::

:;In ward they walked and along the floor they paced.Willows gazed met thebed, no maria, no body at elast,lots of blood ehre and there torn pieces of clothing and such.:: "Looks like Mike kept his new pet..."

::James grimaced and averted his gaze:: "I think I'll ehad down stairs and see how Is and Sammy are holding up" ::and out he went ebfore Willow could protest, she alone sreached the room for any clues but fond nothing but more blood. So she turned and went back down stairs and joine dup with Is ,Sammy and James. Augusta nd Summer came up from the basement dusting them selves off :; " about six lackies..., nothing more..." ::Sammya nd Is nodded:: "Looks like they high tailed it outta here,last night before the sun came up, is shot Willow a look::

::Willow nodded:; "Okay,team groups scan the woods for a blood trail anything at all, meet abck here and well go from there ":;off the temas wentr,August and Summer. Issy and Sammy then James walked out the door and Willow followed, each team took route: North:Sammy and Issy. South: August and Summer. That left West or East for Jmames and Will: "well,Willow East or West?" ::Willow lifted her head tot he wind,like a dappled dear:: "East"

::And off East they would go..::

::Two hours later::

"Nothing,Sorry Will." :August shrugged::

"We got nothing.. either..." ::Sammy stated:::

"Nothing to the East..." ::James stated then they all looked West, then as a group they walked that way::

::Two hours passed and the sun began to sink slwoly throught he sky:: "I think this is ther way they went..." ::Summer grimaced at the blood and pieces of fabric.::

"Yep...hey Will Look at this.." ::Issy called::

"wtacha got" ::Willow amde ehr way over:: " Well I thought he'd sunk low before, all right..." ::she rose and looked tot he others:: "Looks like Mike left those lackies for us... and he dusted the rest him self so that leaves him and his commanders...his officers...::her emerald hues shifted to James:: " James which way os this kingdom of yours from where we stand?"

::He looked around a few moments:: "I'd say North West,aout two days ride...Why?"

"Any hoove prints ladies?"

::They all shook their head::

"All right fan out...Issy,Sammy solo work time August, Summer, James you three stick together. This is the plan, we go off look for a hosue anything that can be sued as shelter, crpyts and so forth,look in to anything you find, dont go inside, mark it on your maps got it?"

::More nodding:: Sammy,Is and I are gonna doa bit more recon...::she smiled and patted James on the shoulder:: "Your in good hands with them, don't worry,meet back here before dark..."

::Off those three went::

:;Willow looked to Is and Sammy:: "all right ready for some solo work? heres the plan, we go off looking for the smae hosues crptys but,anything that had major clues about it check it out as best you canw ithout getting killed,Okay?"

::Issy and Sammy nodded and the three shared a moment, before breaking off in different directions::

Isabelle



Isabelle Jean Thomas: Had been a slayer as long as Willow had and her life was no great tale. She grew up ina little town:Mother ,Father two sisters and two brothers. One day she went out in to town to get the daily bread, when she came back her mother was dead as well as her sisters brothers and father gone. There was so much blood... She then came in to the care of her Aunt on ehr mothers side. Till the day she turned sixteen: it was a late night a storm racked through the town,many people were killed in the floods.The next day Issy went down stairs to find ehr aunt speaking to a man. Then with a nod the mans gaze caught Issy's: " Ahh Miss Belle.. I would like to speak with you" :; he had a french like accent::

"Issy looked to her sunt who just smiled at ehr and went to go amke tea for the man::

"My name is... Eric, and I need to speak plainly with you. I have told your aunt that I am a teahcer ata school,two miles from here, but frankly I must tell you the truth I am not a teacher at a school. I have come here..".:: Issy'd Aunt walked in to the room placing the eta down ebfore taking a seat ehr self:: " I have come to ask you miss Belle, if you would like to come to my school to learn.":;He smield politely to her then to her aunt.::

::Issy looked a the man, for amoment,something told her to trust him so she replied:: "Can I fo,Aunt Lacy can I?"

::Issy's aunt nodded:: "yes of corse dear,a lady like your self needs a good education, how much sir..?"

"Dupart... and it costs about 20 golds a year,for room and broad food, and such..."

::The woman nodded:: "That is reasonable, whenwwould Isabelle have to be ready to go by?"

"Tomorrow, if at all possible, a carrige will come to pick her up."

::Issy looked to ehr aunt with a smile, then eric rose with a bow:: " thank you for your time ladies" :;to the door and out he went, the next night Issy packed said goodbye to her aunt in the monring and wa soff for adventures unknown.::

::When she reached the "shcool" Eric was there to meet ehr, it wasnt so much a school as a very large manor...:: "I know I did not get to explain mys ekf, but tonight I shall over dinner."

"Do you live here alone, Sir Dupart?"

"Aye I do, my beloved Denise was killed recently...so its just me now. I hope you do not mind"

""Issy shook her head, he was at least in his youn thrities but he was a handosme man, business like, in his pressed suit and square lense glasses.He carried hims elf tall,and proudly, as he hefeted her luggage through the door:: "I do have some maids, and servants in the kictehn though" ::A few of those maids would rush in to take Issys things up stairs:: "I'll show you around, first then up to your room, hows that sound."

"Very Good sir..." ::Dispite how rough around the edges she is now, Issy was brought up a very formal little girl, and was formal until she came to know of her great destiny::

::Eric chuckled:: " just eric will do,Miss Belle."

::Issy smiled, a boy in town used to call her Belle.::

::Eric showed ehr around the first level then the next then to her room which was rather large:: "your room my dear,oh yes before I forget,there is someone else whom on rare occasion comes to stay here,my son Joshua, he's about your age. He's beena way at school, for a few motnhs now, but it will soon be time for him to come home again"

::Issy smiled at the thought::

::Later that night they ahd dinner and over it Eric told ehr of ehr great destiny, unlike willow whow asnt ready to face it, issy had long over faced it. When she was tweleve she'd seen a woman being fed off by a vampire, and had then saved that woman....Issy knew well of vampires and darkness.::

::In the next few months Eric and She trained. She honned her skills and got ready to be able to go out on her own. It was on the day of ehr eighteent birthday thatEric's son came home. Joshua.. tall like his father, light hair and handsome blue eyes filled out his rugidly handsome face,he was well build too. Isabelle smiled to him. And he smiled back,:: " ello father, its been too long" ::the two embraced::

"Aye my boy, this is our new hosue guest, Miss Isabelle Thomas..."

::Joshua bowed to her:: "A pleasure Miss Thomas..."

::Eric smiled:: " I was hoping you might take ehr out to twon for me,see if anythign gets stirred up, she's very good, so good in fact that I think I may need to ice my arm down tonight...."

::Joshua nodded:: " It would be my pleasure father."

::Later that eve, Joshua and Isabelle walked in tot won,Eric hid nothing from hsi son, so his son knew well of what his father did, there were often young ladies int hat hosue, which was why Josh had chosen to go to school away from home, but now he found him self intranced with Isabelle. He knew what she was, and of her great destiny, a life with out much love or hope. He walked with her talking fo other things,school and the town and so much more. As the night drew darker he gave her his coat as theyy walked back to the monor,then before reaching the doors he stopped and took her hand and kissed the top softly::

::Issy blushed and smiled to him, smitten as could be:::

::Their love grew and bloomed over the next few months,Issy trained and got stronger...::

::Soon Josh had to go back to school and the love birds were parted for a year,then another.. then the day came Issy was tos trike out on ehr own, Eric had taught her well. She ahd but one night left in the manor.::

::That night Josh returned, he and Issy spent a night over candle light and food and dancing.. then as they walked up stairs to say good night he kissed ehr right full on the lips, not justa simple kiss the kind that curles toes.. that kiss was reaturned. it was a love that could never be, the next day Issy parted out on her own,and to this day she has not seen Eric or Josh....but thinks of them often when looking for badies in all places...she'd scaned a few hidding spots but not evena foot print would be found as a clue....these vams were good::

August,Summer and James: The Trio

August Marie Jameson: Unlike the main trio: August didnt get started young. She got to ahve a life a family and a love.Before destiny came a knocking upon her door::

::She lived in the large city known as Rhydin,a normal woman now, of the age of eighteen,she'd lived here for years now, mother and father now gone moved away. Brothers and sisters gone too. They'd all left but she stayed,taking up work making friends,and so forth. It had been a blissful youth,when the night came that ehr trainer would find ehr. Her name was Harmony Smith, and she was one of few female trainers,it didnt take long for August to accept her destiny,slaying demaons made since to her. Four years later she met Sammy out one night while hunting and joined the group...::

Summer Yvone Peterson: Now unlike the others,Summer was not so ready to give up her life to slay deamons.She was taken at birth by her trainer,adobted,her parents never knew their daughter and the only family she ever knew was her trainer and his son. George was a middle aged man,with salt n' pepper hair,he wore thick glasses and had athick english accent. His son Dan was born and raised in the states, so he ahd no accent and it was hard to see where they were fmaily. In fact they were not, Dan was adoted too,a freelancer deamon hunter from a young age George took him in and taught him. They met up with Summer, and at first she wanted to runa nd hide, but then one night she saved a young womans life, and vowed to always do this.. for duty or destiny.. aftera few years she met up witht he others and they became a group all bound by duty and destiny.::



James Wolfe:: He once was a knight to his lord, honored and bound by duty. He had long been trianed in combat but never in the things outside the castle walls,whent he lords daughter disappeared,he set out for adventure.finding along thew way that the world was much darker than he had pictured, and now he was slaying deaoms, things he once upona time didn't even believe in, but now he did.



::Through the woods they walked slayers all, save for James. Two slayers one old knight. All wella rmed for any battle that might befall them, but this was recon, not fighting time. They cased every shelter they came across from hollow trrees to old crpyts,but nothing came of it. They walked slwoly stelty like,trying not to go to far. They even got to dusta few vamps, and James even got to dust his first welll on his
way from knight hood to freelance deamon hunter::

We all come to a point in our life where we change,our circimstances change,so forth. We change with them,or they change us...

::Willow,Issy and Sammy cast eachother a look,across the small field,throught he udner brush around the trees, five slayers one knight n his way to becoming a good hunter of dark himself, faned out along the sides of the hosue, there were no screams,which was bad..either she was dead.. or she was changed...:;

you know what flows there like wine

::Willow gazed through the window, the plan had been laid, they would atatck full force and kill everything inside that had fangs.They would hit it hard and fast,,no time for second guesses,one wrong move meant death.::

::Sammya nd Issy were along the front wall with Willow. James August and Summer along the back, they'd break in at two points front door and back,and flank inwards/ Swords ready,crosses,stakes,hoy water the whole bit,everythign that could killa vamp was brought... save for the sun light,it was black as midnight out now... Willow glanced to Is and Sammy her hand on ehr thoguh counting dsown three,two... One::

:;They moved Willow broke down the front door, August in the back ehard it falla nd the trio back there wa son the move throught he back windows and door. In tot he back rooms, slaying who came at them with fangs barred::

::Dust and ash and smoking fire rose in tot he house, as vamp after vamp fell, two by james's hand before Willow pulle dhim up stairs the ladies ahd down stairs cased, only a few left they could handle.Up the steps she pulled him whispering:: Michale and your girl are up ehre some where,Issya nd Sammy will be up here in...." ::Up the steps Is and Sammy came, down stairs Summer and ugst were ina party sitiation dusting the alst six or so vamps ebfore going up too.::

::Willow gave them orders with ehr hands the slayes broke off and Willow pulled James along down the hall.The two if Maria was alie that was would be in the largest room of the second story,which meant the last room on the left.:: "Now look" ::willow whsipered to James:: "If we break in there and she's alive,dont go rsuhing in to save her not till we know if shes" ::willow made a face:: "once Mikes done with,then we'll see, but if she atatcks you dont hold back the woamn you knew is gone...got it?"

::He nodded::

sometimes change comes all too fast for our liking

"death comes to us all... and some of us choose to fight it, and some of us are taken by its cold icy stare.. in to the darkest reaches beyond all hell"

::Willow breathed as she ran after Mike::

"You know you seem a little off ...:tense even, off yor game Slayer" ::he called back chuckling...::

::She picked up the pace using a touch of magic, to make her steps a bit lighter,and faster:: "hardly..."

::she was on his heals,ready to fight,, he wanted to draw this out,and she knew why::

::The ran and ran through the woods Salyer giving chasem to him just what he wnated her alone away from her friends... a trap not so much,fun times had by all,maybe not by her,by him yes...::

::Issy and Sammy took a few breaths they lost the trail as the wind picked up:: "Damn it!"

::Issy punched a tree and swore and curesed and looked down the fading path way in to the woods::

"Will's out there all alone,this sucks Is..." ::Sammy breathed::

::Issy nodded:: " she's well armed and well trained.. if shes not back at the inn by afternoon tomorrow we'll hunt that son of a bitch down...."

::Sammy nodded:: " good plan..." :;they turned around and headed for the inn::


::By this time at the inn all were sleeping,save fore James who sat up by the fire side thinking over and over again how willow ahd told him not to rush in but he had, and it could get her killed now... he cursed under his breath, and shuffled his feet,he would not rest till Willow was safe at home...::



::They reached the spot... Mike looked over at Willow as he leaned all non-caring upon a tree::

::She looked to him, emerald hues flaring:: "can we just finish this..."

::He shook his head:: " so hows Vince...still tagging along with you,the boy toy whipped ass Vamp that he is...?"

::Willow glared:: "Vince ... you want to know about him huh, well if you had any connections you'd know I havent seen him in years..."

::Mike smirked:: "Oh I know, got all rough with some other guy now huh, Darin whats his face.... is it good Slayer, has he made you a woman yet?"

::Willow gallred that sword hung in her hand :: " Darins gone too..."

"Oh cant hold on to your men now can you, too rough,not rough enough,to much of a goodie good? dont give up the moans?"

::That got him kicked hard in the groin::

::He gasp for air as he fell to his knees: "did I hit a nerve Will?" ::coughing slightly::

::She then spun around and round hosued him tot he ground her feet hit his face once,twice,thrice, before his ehad crashed to the ground... hitting it hard he winced slightly::

"I told you I don't want to do this, can we just fight?"

::Mike smirked and sat up looking to her,young,beautiful,lithe little boy:: "I bet you taste like strawberries..."

::That got him lifted by his neck and tossed to a tree... nearly dusting him but misisng his heart by half an inch or so.. he hung there in pain::

"You want to know what I taste like...?" ::she drew her hand across her balde and held it to his lips:: "go ahead I dare you.."

;;He smirked and slowly srated to extend his tongue, then he felt a shrp pain at his neck that was her sword there:: "it will eb the last blood you ever get to even look at " ::she slid the sword back and chopped of fhis head:: "bloody vamps..." ::she cleaned off her blade and sheathed it before sitting down to take a breather:: "No wonder Vince left..."

::Talia smirked as she lay there besidde Darin,the spell had wonr off and now she would wait to see if he tried to kill her or took her again::

::His eyes opned looking around then over to Talia...: "Talia? " ::he blinked a few times before a smirk played over his face,he moved over her again the thin sheets sperated their bodies:: " Mmm pet...what was that last night?"

::Talia smirked softly, it worked,he was hers:: "I don'tknow you tell me your the one who held back,even though I begged you."

::He smiled and leaned down slipping the sheet off of her,pressing his body back to hers:: "Well..then beg me now,lover,and I wont hold back..."

::She smirked,she'd wone,she had Darin..and he wanted ehr, even though he was under a spell...:: " take me baby..right now,pin me down and take me"

::He smirked down to her,and win in a moments time he was back inside her body,magic played through the air as he started to take her.,hard deep and fast. Her moans filled the air,as did their combined magic, now touched with darkness,his body gave in to her magic his light eyes going dark as he took her harder and faster,deeper still,his body pulsed with magic,against her lithe form:: "Talia...." ::he moaned her name and she reveled in his voice,giving in to him, as he took her, again and again... through the day light,he would shift to pull her on top,for awhile, then after a nice long ride he would toss her on her back,pinning her hands down, and bending her knnes her legs bent back to allow him full access to her,he would pulse in to her, over and over again, the magic about them stirred darkly,as he tioook her over and over agin the magic making it impossible to stop...::

::He'd slow down only to go again,the light of the day started to fade,when that moment of their final loud union was made. Talia moane dunder him as she felt him fill her...she was his and he was hers,and now she knew that if they kept this up for awhile that she could return and continue her plan to ruin Willow... she just had to bare his child...she smirked as they lay there in the woods.::

Love a Gift, a Curse


::Issy and Sammy sat up at the inn,looking to one another,talking about old times when Jule's came through the door,Kathy was with him::

"Issy,Sammy..." ::the three had met before long ago...:: "wheres Willow?"

"Out" ::Issy looked to him, She knew he was the only trainer still alive,looking abit worn a bit older,but still sorta hot...:: "Some stuffs gone down Jule's" ::sammy chimed in::

::He nodded:: "I have brought a few old friends..." ::Behind Lathryn cross in Dan.. and Josh...Sammys herat hit the floor... Issy smiled brighty:: "It can't be..."

::Josh looked to her, and rushed to her lifting her up in his arms::

::Sammy rose slowly and crossed to Dan:: "Hi...."

::He leaned down and kissed her::

::Jules smirked:: "good my gifts went over well...wheres Augie and Sum... out too?"

::Issy nodded mid-kiss::

::He chuckled and looked back to Kathy,who sent him a wink:: " I think its time we all get the chance to have a little love in our lives..." ::he smiled to Sammy and Is...:: " oh go geta room you guys come on...I don't want to see this..."

::Dan smirked and lifted Sammy up and wlaked past Hules:: " I think I will.." ::up he carried Sammy::

::Josh followed that suit, and lifted Issy up:: "come on love,I want to...spend some time with you..." ::up those two went and Jules and Kathryn were left tot end bar... sharing kisses here and there::

"I think they will enjoy their gifts.." :;she gave his ass a playful pat:: " you ol softy"


Time For Love
::A few hours later Willow and James came through the front door and Jules was sitting there smirking:: "well well well,long time..."

"Jules!" :;Willow hurried behind the bar and hugged him::

:He hugged her back:: "Its been too long..Slay...." ::then he saw James::

::Willow smiled:: "hes cool Jules, he knows"

::Jules smirked:: "what are you just telling everyone now?"

::James slowly nodded to Jules and Kathryn.::

:;Willow giggled:: "Yep, James this is Jules and Kathryn,he was my trainer...long ago"

::James nodded:: "a pleasure:"

::Jules nodded softly:: "Issy and Sam are up stairs with... a few old friends of their own..."

::Willow smirked:: "Dan and Josh, you brought them..." ::Willow had been told long ago by Sammy and Is about their long lost loves,but neither knew of hers:: "Jules..."

::He smiled and slowly handed her a note:: "here.. read this..."

:;She looked to the note folded in half,with her name written on the front,she'd knw that penmenship anywhere,it was Vimce's:: "pardon me..." :;off she went to go and read it::

::James looked to Jules and Kathryn::

::Jules smiled:: "so you part of the slayer club too?"

::James smiled dimly:: "you could say that I suppose.."


::Upstairs::

::Willow sat down on the end of ehr bed and opened the note and read it softly out loud to her self::

"My dearest Slayer,my love...

It has been a long time since we last spoke..I know you have looked for me,I am sorry for leaving all tose years ago, but I hope you understand now why I left.I have beenw atching you from afar,Jules has been getting letters from me and I sent this one to him to give to you. I have never stopped thinking about you, not for a moment. I have longed to see you,I know you have moved on with your life with a another man... but I would like tos ee you,if you like pelase write me,Jules knows how to contact me...

All my love in the world to you...

Vincent..."

::Willow tooka breath and held that note to her her herat it was the one thing she needed the most to see that he was alive, she hurried back down stairs and looked to Jules and James talking:: "Jules..." ::she interupted:: "I want to..."

::He nodded and smiled:: "you write to him, and I'll make sure he gets it, but wont your..new..."

::Willow looked on:: "Darin is gone, hes betrayed me...."

::Jules looked on shocked:: "Oh.... Willow...I'm"

::She held up her hand:: "its cool,im over it.. "

::Jules looked on with a nod, then Issy and Josh and Sammy and Dan came down the stairs, each of the gents was introduced to James..and they all sat and talked for a while. Willow sat there waiting to find the right words to write back to Vince.She wasnt sure what she wnated to say yet,but she needed to do it.Jules and the rest were going to stay at the Inn for awhile.So Willow would have a few moments alone to write that letter.::

::Vince led her through the forests and she followed him willingly,he had come across them on his way here,Talia that wicth and Willows newest beloved Darin.Who Vince had to hold back from killing right then and there,but he saw through the magic,he saw that darkness that lingered there in Talia,and in Darin.Willow had to know this, she had to see this,some how Vince knew that She was not her self this day because of that very man...he was here to prove to her that she, was better off knowing his ways than not knowing them.::

::He stopped and pointed off away looking with his dark hues,bidding her to look as well.Willows mouth dropped open shen she saw that sight again,her beloved the man she loved and trusted,and Talia,together again...::"Why are you showing me that which I have all ready seen?"

::He looked to her sadness in her eyes:: "did you really,or was it just magic the last time,I know you slayer...I know you like no one else..look at me"

::Emerald hues shifted to him,looking up in to his dark gaze:: "It was magic.... then... but now.....look at them gods..." ::she breathed...::

::He cupped his hands around her cheeks:: "Its not just Talia's doing Love, its his too, what man would allow some two bit witch whore to corrupt him in to thinking that he loved her?"

::Willow pressed her head to his chest looking away:: "I don't want to see any thing more...."

:;Just then Darins eyes saw the two,then he looked to Talia,in that momwnt her dark spell over him was broken...:: "Will...."

::Vince heard Darin and glared back at him baring his fangs::

"Willow! " ::Darin called to her,seeing her in the arms of avampire he pushed Talia off of him and rushed towards her...but before he could reach the Vince and she shifted in to shadow and were gone....::

"No...No! what have I done? " ::He looked over at Talia who smirked then dispapeared:: "No...."


::Vince took Willow fara way from there,some wheresafe.She clng to him softly as she fell to the floor.Her legs bucked under her and tears ran down her face:: "I know its not all his fault... but..I would think him wiser to see through all that magic..."

::Vincent knelt down to be at her side,running his fingers to her chin to lift her gaze to his:: "I know ye ofen enjoy alittle monsetr in your man love,but he is... no better thana two bit..half wit fool,I know ye care for him...but ye can do better."

::Emealed hues looked up to him:: "Vince....." ::she breathed through the tears::

"Hush...your safe here...,take as long as you need,no one shall distube us here,only Jules would know how to find us..."

::Hues glanced about the place huge a large house or manor..well furnished in classic Vincent style dark,with lovely accents and textures..:: "your place?"

::He nodded:: "My sanctuary"

"Will..." ::he looked to her to her body,the way she moved he could nearly tatste her already feel her again:: "its not right,your... and I... and if we, we'd want more"

::Stepping closer still:: "Vince..." ::emerlad hues shifted to him:: "I haver not stopped wanting you,... and it is right..." ::she pressed her hand to his heart:: "you feel it... and you want me..".:: dropping her belt to the floor sheathed weapons and all now:: "as much as I want you...."

:his dark hues agzed to ehr as her belt witht hats heathed long sword hit the floor,then up along those curves of ehrs that showed through those form fitten black pants.He took a deep breat,she was right,how was it that she always was so right.He did want her,he had not come back just to say hey,i heard about you and oh your guy is a big bastard.That duster of his was pulled off his broad shoulders and tossed to the floor then, he step to her rnning his fingers through her hair,then down over her shoulders,then lower down her slender yet strong arms,then down to her hips.He then lifted her up with ease and carried her off towards the ebd room,down the long hall and tot he left,the room was even darker than that living area they had been in. Sparcely lit byt dim flickering candles.He sat her on the bed and knelt there before her. His hands on her knees:: "Will..."

::Her hands graced his cheeks,still so handsome so young he looked,but those eyes that seemed to flicker with their own flame shown her the world...:: "Vincent..." ::her emerald hues sparkled with those magics she had mastered.he looked to them and then leaned up to kiss her,his lips avored in that kiss,the taste of he rlips on his,their shared breath as the kiss deepened.::

::She moved and he shifted,now laying side by side for a moment before she was on top of him,still locked in that kiss,his hand rose and fell along her back,pulling at the fabric of her shirt,pulling it up along her bare bac.The kiss was broken for but a moment as he pulled the shirt over her head and down her arms and tossed it in to the shadows of the room.::

::Willow worked off her boots as he worked off her shirt they both fell to the floor with a gentle thud.Vincet sat up,pulling her down in to his lap,his hands graced her bare arms and mid-drift.Her long dark locks fell along the silk and lace of that well amde undergarment she wore,he could feel her breats heave against his chest,he now worked to take off his boots, as willow started to unbotton those buttons of that white dress shirt,one after the next till they were all undone,then her hands pulled at his sleaves and he moved his arms out of them.That shirst was then tossed to join hers in the shadows as his shoes fell to the floor with a thud.::

::Her soft hands moved down his broad well built chest,over the packed muscles and some old and newer scars,her emerald hues looked to him as she sat in his lap::

::He smiled to her:: "your not the only one who's been working hard" :: his fingers moved down her back and over her bare shoudlers,finding a few scars himself...:: "don't worry about me,I heal well,like you..." ::he kissed her bare shoulder,as he shited up to lay ehr on her back under him,his hands now moved freely down her stomach around to ehr hips along the waistline of her fitted black pants,unlacing them,and pulling them down her long legs inch by inch. Caressing those legs as he went before tossing them away to that dark shadowed part of the room,dark hues shifted over ehr form clad now in those silken and lace undergraments.::

::Sh shivered at his touch,feeling his hands slide along her body,as he tore off the last of her top garments, her hands then moved to the waist line of those black dress pants::

::he smirked ,looking down to her leaning down across her,to kiss her deeply,he wanted to savor these moments together with her:: " we need not to rush love,we will have eterinty together " ::said as he kissed sover her ear::

"Vince..." ::her body pressed up in to his,her hands moved down his back her legs bent and moved along his.::

:;He smiled bringing her up,to kiss along the form of her breasts that peeked out of those silken lace undergarments.his tongue then licked along the flesh,tasting the salt upon her skin,he felt her heart pulse as he licked and kissed along that tender flesh::

::her body shiver under his touch and kiss,as she worked a bit of magic to undo those pants about his waist,he smirked feeling that touch of magic,kissing up along her neck kicking off his pants as he laid her back down:: "now now love.." ::kissing her ear:: "no rushing"

::Willow smirked feeling the flow of his legs against hers,feeling his excitment through those,silken shorts he wore under those dress pants,Willow smirked more hearing his voice in her ear.:: "mmm sorry..."

::He smiled as he kissed along her jaw,feeling her silken legs move past his,as he lowered him self fully upon her for a moment before lifting him self up to lay on his side,hands running down her neck,to shoudlers,and down along the curve of her beautiful body.His fingers worked along her back to untie those laces that held the top og that udnergarmet she wore,once he felt them give way he slowly pulled it off,and tossed it away,dark hues sinking slowly across her exposed breasts,heaving in those deep breaths she took::

::Her eyes had closed the moment she felt him undo that undergraments of hers::
::Vince looked down to her her eyes closed,her arms covered with goose bumps,he smiled as he leaned down against her feeling her excited nipples press against his hard chest:: "you wouldnt be enrvous would you love?" ::he whispered in to her ear::

:;those emerald hues opened looking up to him:: "never with you love..." ::kissing kiss neck softly as she leaned up against him,he legs shifetd and moved along his,knees bending,her hips meeting his::

::That ggot a slightly stiflled moan to come from his lips as he leaned down,kissing along her collar bone and neck,along those amrks he hims elf had made years ago,he kissed them,and licked across them,yes he thirsted for her, but he was going to take this slow,not that thier first time wasnt amazing,but he wanted to show her that he loved her,and wnated to stay with her now..no matter thier differences::

::Willow titled her neck feeling thos licks and kisses,her legs moved along his sitll feeling his excitment through those silk shorts::

::He smiled against her neck,his fingers moved down across her form as he lifted him self over her then with a powerful show of strength he pulled her on top of him,while pulling off the last of her clothing she now sat nude to his roving gaze on top of him:: "mmm god, how I have missed feeling you... like this " ;;pulling her close::

::Willows eyes fluttered as he pulled her against him, cheeks softly red with blush, even though he had seen everything about her before...she still blushed and held back a soft moan ::

"Don't hold back love..." ::said to ehr as he lowered her head to the pillow,,and kicked off the last of his clothes,now exposed to her wondering gaze::

::those hues did wonder too,over him,as they had the first time,then back up to him, still bitting down on her lower lip::

"let me love" ::he licked at her lips,and nipped at them softly:: "I had forgotten" ::a smirk crossed his lips as he looked down to her,feeling her body shift under him as he moved over her again.His fingers tracing the outline of her form::

Blood Red Days,blood stained walls and fields,blood upon parchment like ink.


all the furys of hell hath no fury like woman scorned

all the deamons and devils of the darkest reagins hath no fury like this....



Evil , dark and pure,first and primal.... fear and death..Blood... and sweet screams in the darkness

:: Things were always calm before the storms. Things had been for the most part peaceful a few fights but no all out battles::

::It was one night when Vince and Willow sat in the lounge with August,Summer,Sammy ,Dan,Is , Josh and James.. who had returned from his mission, that there came a knock upon the door.::

::August stood smiling:: "I'll get it" :: the inn was closed for tonight seeing as they were having one of their meetingsshe bounded to the door and looked out the window there,her brows perked and she unlocked the door and opened it,no one was there:: "I guess it was just the Wind...." ::looking back to those in the lounge::

::Thena gloved hand grabbed August a round the neck and hefted her up wards and tossed her over the bar in a crash of glasses and mugs, those in the lounge rose evetyone went for a wepaon, cross bows,stakes swrods and what ever they coudl get their hand son inw alked Darin looking darker than hell ::

::Willow looked to Darin he looked possessed...::

::He looked over them all his eyes focused on Willow then on Vince...snarling at him almost::

::Behind the bar Augst rose bloody but alive:: "ass" ::to Darin::

:: in from out side moved three women clad in black faces not seen as he chased August out the back the others focused on fighting those three who were powerful::

::Darin kiiled August with a few moves even though the slayer put up a good fight.::

::She died with a twist of a neck....snap like some twig::



Inside Dan and Josh were knocked out, and Summer was dead,One of the darkly clad women licked Summers blood from her fingers:: mmm so thats a slayers blood...::smirking darkly under a hood of black::

::Willow rushed in at the woman but Vince held her back:: "No" ::he snarled at the three women as Darin came back in,Josh and Dan awoke in time to stand before thier beloves.Issy and Sammy ready to get really hairy with those cladly clothed women.::

::James lay uncousnious upon the floor::

::One by one each woamn left the room, and Darin starred at Willow: "You think ou know who you are whats to come,you've only just begun" ::a dark smirk and he left the inn::

::Sammy rushed outside out to the babck to see if August was dead.... coming back in shaking her head as Issy knelt near Summers body::" what are we going to do Will?"

::Wilows hues were focused on the door a moment before she placed a hand on Vinces shoulders, and walked to Issy:: "we will burry the dead... "::walking past her now to James:: "Dan,Josh can you two carry him up stairs...?"

::The two nodded lucky to eb alive,pulling James up and carrying him off up stairs::

::Issy and Vince lifted Summer up,and Sammy and Will went out side gathering up August they would burry the two once Josha nd Dan came back down stairs another grave to join Julie's, Andrea's,Eve's,Marina's and there was even one for Talia::

::there in the moon light they would lean Will on Vince,Sammy on Dan and Issy upon Josh, the final force,who these new eneimes were they did not know what had happened to darin they did not know but their lives would be greatly different from now on...::

::they were the lucky ones, seven survivors::

::Issy and Willow were hell bent on finding out who these new eneimes were,they headed out recon. They had to gather information, and the best place to start was the deepest dankest corner of the world, where deamons were,a deamon bar. Willow and Issy got ready,well armed,well preped.::

::They were going to find out who these new woemn were,these new eneimes and where they came from.They made their way out in to the waying day light,both well equiped with cross bows,bolts,stakes,swords and daggers. Two slayers, magic pulsed through their veins they were the last two,no more would be called,this task was given to them. And they would take up the call.::

:;They made their waya way from the Rose Inn, The world had changed,Rhydin seemed to have fallen away, the people the city,both Issy and Willow knew it, they ahd been taken away the moment they steppe dout in to the woods, to find their way to those bars headed up by demaons but found much worse, encampments of deamons,vampires, and those of mixed blood, feeding off the young and beautiful, the world had changed.::

:;They went on fighting through the horde killing with out remose,getting answers when they could they found out soon enough the names of thsoe foes,Raevyn,Aurina,Kaie,Kadri,Ivy,Razallia, Jade. And there was someone elading them a master pulling their strings a master who ahd gotten his claws in to Darin long ago when Talia first pulled her grave deception, his name was but a whsiper with the deamons that they killed a man, once long ago now changed.... a man froma land beyond all magic,a land where demaons reigned free, Willow amde a vow then to go there and fight,these forces.. Issy vowed it with her.::

:;They returned to the inn Vince and Josh were not happy with them,they had gone out to die,to fight alone.But they understood. Vince most of all, he had every intent of hunting Darin down and ebating the ever living crap out of him,to get answers.He would fight hell back for Willow.::



:;In times of great fights and great war,many things happened,more minor fight came tot he slayers fold,led by Darins hand.. then Willow found out she was with Child, it was Vince's she knew that but witrh Darin lurking over them some where between good and evil she had to decied what to do, Vince knew the child was coming he also knew it was his, but he knew what she had to do.::

"Tell him its his," :;pressing his hand to her stomach:: "I love you, and I'll love this child, but I dare not risk him or her,I dare not risk you."

"Vince..." ::Willoe breathed:: "This is your child though,I don't want Darin to think its his..."

"You know you must,I will protect you both ,I promise..."

::Willow nodded:: " Vince I..."

::He pressed his fingers to her lips, and took her close quickly:: "I would do anything for you Will, anything... never forget that.. and I will do anything for my son, I love you both..."


::Three days later she told Darin about their child,he at first didnt beileve her, but then he did,the news seemed to change him, he became the loving man he had been all those years ago before darkness came. Willow would fight on, those dark wenches would not come, only lesser vamps and deamons, some how Willow feared bareing this child, he or she would be born in to a world of darkness,and what of this nameless foe,this master puppeter. Would use Darin would use this child,she would not let it happen.::


::Nine months passed,relitive bliss,Issy and Josh were well and Darin was around much more often.Vince came the night the child was born, when Darin was gone, to see his son.::

"He has my eyes..." :;holding the baby in his arms:: "hes so wonderful,are you doing all right?" ::Looking over to Willow,Issy was by her side::

::Willow nodded:: "I am fine, he will be a handsome boy,Vince...I don't want anything to happen to you or to our son."

::Vince nodded:: "Nothing shall happen to Shaun..." ::he smiled to Willow:: "Seems a fitting name yes?"

::Willow nodded: "Yes I like it"

::Vince looked the babe over :: " I love you my boy" ::he ksised his forhead::

::Issy gave a singnal:: "Darin's coming..."

::Vince kissed his sons head onc emore .. and slipped out the window Issy clsoed it behind him and walked the baby to the cradle::

::Darin came in through the doorway:: "How my wife and son?"

::Willow looked to Darin a shudder went through her:: "Shaun is sleeping "

"Shaun" :;He nodded crossing in to the room looking to Issy then to Willow:: "A fine name."

::Issy smiled:: "She should rest as well the birth was rather hard."

::Josh stood in the door way ready to drag Darin out if he had too.::

"All right" ::Darin nodded:: "I have to leave for a little while but I'll be back..." :: he slwoly crossed out of the room::

"We will take good care of her." ::Josh chimed in:: "Of them both."

"I'm sorry Will, I havent seen him for a week,since he departed and came back here." :;Jules sat at the bar looking across to Willow,her eyes fiece and green,her hair up ina braided bun. She looked ready for war.:: "He will come back."

::Willow nodded:: "Thank you for coming all this way,I know it is much for you now, to be parted from Kathryn."

::Jules smiled and reached up and touched ehr cheek:: "I know I told you once that a slayer is always alone, but your not lone Will, you have Issy Josh,Vince, me and Kathy."

:;Willow looked down to her now cold coffee:: "I feel alone with out him by my side,I feel weak..powerless and I hate it."

"Then fight.." ::Issy looked to her:: "lets take this fight to them,lets not sit here witing,we are slayers,and we must fight."

::Jules nodded:: "Is is right,its ime for action,I shall return to Kathryn and see if word comes from VinceI will retrun in three days." :: he rose and hugged willow then Issy then shook Joshs hand:: "Three days..." ::he nodded and headed off::

"It feels as if three days were a life time from now, Issy I ahve a grave feeling."

:;Issy smiled softly:: "You have not rested in days,you need your sleep, you need to focus. We will find Shaun,we will face this evil.. as a team. For Sammy... for all of those who have fallen."

"For Shaun." ::Willow nodded :: "Your right I need some rest,I shall gos ee if I can find sleep now.::



::Yet through she went to ebd and lay there sleep would not come she would close her eyes and see them those once nameless foes and their master,and Darin holding her son hostage...she would not sleep no sleep would come.::

::Two days passed on the thrid Jules would return, but he would return too late::


::They stood out back well armed all three two slayers an man,they stood against ofur, Raevyn,Kadri,Aurina, and Kaie deamons withces mosterous things, hell bent on killing Willow but savoring in it. They knew that if they killed her, that no one would stand between the masters arrival, his power gained, it was clsoe now so close.::


::Blood spattered over the fields,and two lie dead. Willow broken and beaten lay near death and they smirked and left her there setting her inn a blaze again.::

::She lie there eyes open to the sky,ready to die,but the though of her son played in ehr mind, she looked over to Issy, broken in two,Josh inches form his love,a dagger stuck through his heart...both dead by the eneimes hand. Willow lie there some where between death and life.::

::When Jules arrived he was barely able to save the Inn.But the sight of Isabelle and Josh both dead and his slayer near death nearly cribled him, he knew he could not save Issy or Josh but Willow could be saved.::

"Will." "Willow..."

:;Bright emerald hues opened and the world around her seemed to fall all in to place, wasshe dead the roomw aswarm and she heard his voice for a moment.:: "You can not die, it is not your time..." ::For a moment in ehr blurred visions he saw Vince but then her vision returned and Julesstrood over her, the smell of ash and dust and blood fileld her senses:: "Issy!" ::She sat up, wincing in pain, arm broken, rips too, a huge cut in to ehr leg, she could barely move. The fight played over and over again in her mind,they were out numbered and out armed, and the dark magic they all weilded was terrible... they killed Issy and they Killed Josh but they left her alive, she cried now,blood dripped off her face with her tears, she clsoed her eyes and she saw him, the master of them, colorless eyes, cloaked and hidden his voice made he shiver...:: "Leave her..." :; he had said:: " I am not yet through with this one... come.."

"Will..." ::Jules's hand met her shoulder::

::She opened her eyes and looked to Jules..:: "Dead... I am the last one.. he left me alive..."

:;Jules looked back to the back yard two new graves he had put there while she lie out, Kathryn was there as well,she had been tending to Willow.::

"Yes.. Issy and Josh are dead... they go to join Sammy and Dan... and the rest of the fallen..."

:;Willow looked to him then to Kathryn with wide eyes:: "I am alone now..."

"We are here, I will help you in this fight as much as I can,I am close to finding Vince I think... hes been tracking Darin and your Son, I found out what this amster of thsoe evil bitches seeks a blade... a sword.. of emmense power." :: He would explain everything to ehr while she sat there taking it in, her wounds numbed, the pain seemed to fade,as if it was nothing.. she took in everything about the sword about this Tancred and his mission, she stood in his way, and she would until her death.:: "I will fight Jules... until my last breath I will fight... for my son, forVince for my friends, for this land..."

::He nodded:: "Rest, take up strength, Kathry and I will do some recon see if this sword can be destoryed,once we know where it might be found we may be able to get to it first..."



::But it was too late for that, Darin had found it after hiding Shauna way he sought the sword and found it, he then locked Vince away in his rgeat tower, in the cells in which he had kept a few slayers for a while, even willow had spent time there when they all tried to atatck him, but she was stronger now than ever even in ehr sorrow, he set his bothers,Bane and James to keepw atch on the vampire to starve him, of blood an d food, to beat him.. and to show him images... of Willows death which Darin would soon bring he braged for ages to Vince about the power he felt when he held that sword, he was going to Kill willow with it... and then raise his son,to be an evil man. Vince nearly tore out of the wall but he was beaten back in to submission. ::

:;Two years passed, and nothing... Willow had not heard from Jules or Kathryn not seen Vince or felt him,she felt alone she knew some where out there Jules was seraching locked in some timelss battle but this was her fight... not his. She knew her enenmy knew what they wnated they wanted her dead,as long as she fought she would not let ehr self die, ebfore she could tell ehr son she loved him, before she could say goodbye to Vince...::



::Time passed, she trianed and finally got word from Jules some one had found the great sword someone of evil intent Willow was on high alert,they would come for her and when they did she would be ready, armed daya nd night with every weapon she could carry and still move,ready to fight...::

::But some things are meant to happen..... some times desiny and fate must play part...::

:: A slayers life is death, you make it with your hands you wield it with every blow, every slayer knows one day she will die. In that final fight, in that last moment her life, Willow gazed back over the days of her life. The best times with her friends that she would now go to join. She didn't feel cold, it didn't feel like death but there she stood at a place that was a wash of bright colors and a field of green grass that went on for miles. Her fiends were there, all there happy content at peace.

: Willow breathed in the air, she saw everything as if seeing it with new eyes. Her life had always hung in the balance, she walked a fine line as a hunter of daemons. But she could even now feel everything, every wound from her first to the last, she looked to her hands they had no form nor shape they ere as air yet she could feel them, sense them. She was her self and she wasn't.

::Then from below a voice came...:

"Will! Willow!" ::It was Jules with that new sight she could see him, as if she were an angel looking down from on high to her ever faithful friend and mentor, he knelt there at the grave with Kathryn at his side, he had come too late,ready to fight with her:: "No...No..Willow!" :;He sobbed, and Kathryn right beside him her hands over her dark and fair features. Her long dark hair in her face. Willow looked down to him, then a flash in her mind, her son,Vince... what would happen to them, what had happened in that final moment. She closed her eyes trying to remember, trying to remember what Darin had done, then it flashed before her that great light a mixture of dark and light magics.She saw what happened in that moment he killed her they seemed to just disappear that sword he held as well seemed to just be gone, then as she looked back to her friends and familiar face stood before her:: "Sammy..." ::she breathed looking at her friend::

"Willow, it is not your time to be here, your time is far from now..." :: Her hand touched Willows cheek::

::She deiced to start her life over again.There were nights of much lonelyness and nights of many fights with new forces of darkness, yet some where in Crednia or Rhydin lurked adarkness she could feel it.::


::Willow met a man, an elven man. They met by chance,but it was a love like she had never really had. Her mind often went to be with Vince, in her heart she knew he was alive she also knew that some where her son was alive, how mnay years had passed how old was he now and whow as rasising her son, it made ehr shiver to think that darina s alive after that fight,yet he was alive she knew it yet not mortal any more like her he had been changed::

::She learned to love again time passed yet she did not age, she loved the man she knew as Chrissum, he was elven and loved her,yet as it seemed with most men of ehr past he had a bit of his own darkness,a deamon lurked some where with in him, thsoe runes upon his skin glowed red at the full moon and at the taste of ehr blood, and Willow savored in it, giving in to those dark pwoers she'd long locked away letting her self be dark for but a moment.::


::They were to be married,he had given her his vow.... but only in part, they lie togther one last time::


::his hand slowly slid down along her leg, kneading slow steady circles along the back of her knee as he drew those silken thighs apart another inch, guiding himself roughly into her awaiting body, he moaned softly through his gritted teeth, lips curling back slowly to reveal his long gleaming canines, gathering his control about himself once more, those coal black eyes turning up to catch hers, leaning in to nip playfully at her lower lip, drawing back to turn a sharp sly smile upon her:: You wouldn't want to get me worked up...

:she moaned softly:: mm maybe I do:: she nipped back at him, pressing in to him, shifting her hips:: maybe I want you more than worked up:; she nipped at his lips, and spread her legs a bit more, allowing him to go deeper still:; maybe I like it...

:his hardened length ground into her body faster with each pulse, his brow raising at her words, but a soft shudder took the words from his lips, his lips sunk to press along her cheek, tracing across her side of her neck, his long fingers scratched down along her naked hind to cup her ass in one long elven hand. His lips parted slowly to once more expose his sharp ivory fangs, his voice a low subtle growl:: You might get more than you bargained for tonight, lover...

::another moan shook her slender form. As her nails dug in to his back. That warmth rushed through her.:: mmm like what:: she pressed her lips against his neck nipping softly then kissing upward to his ear, licking at the sensitive parts, a soft moan was given in to his ear::

he shuddered at that cold shock of pleasure that pulsed through his body as he buried himself within her hot wet walls. The sound of her moan reaching his preternatural ears sent a shiver down along his spine, forcing an even quicker pace as he felt that change begin to come over his body even without the blood catalyst, those complex silver marks shining brightly to her for a moment before they faded completely away::

::she noted those shining silver marks and moaned deeply, with the quickened pace her body only got hotter and wetter, her breasts pressed tightly against his bare chest:: mm yes..:: her hands danced down his back over his spine::

:he growled harshly as he pushed himself to the hilt, grinding his naked thighs roughly against hers, arching his back to let his coal black gaze catch hers, his sharp eyes seemed to burn with a light of their own, she could watch the change come over his lean sharp features, his eyes slipping shut only to open once more the sharp slitted eyes of a serpent::

::she gazed to him, seeing his eyes burn with that light all their own, she licked her lips, no blood there... he was changing before her though she moaned deeply closing her eyes, giving in to him:; m'love...

he watched as her eyes flickered shut, growling gently as he saw her submit to that demon as it took his senses, his body growing longer, she could feel him grow within her body, his erect member filling her completely as he ground slowly into her body, that stroke slowing for a moment to allow her body to accept his girth. She could feel his hands at her back lengthening, nails growing sharp and dangerous as they dragged slowly and gently down along her back, his hand cupping her naked ass lengthening, until his fingertips just grazed the inside of her thigh, his voice was a slow beastial growl as it parted his lips, he knew in an instant that that voice was not his own:: This is what you wanted, lover?

:she moaned as she felt him grow inside of her, legs spreading as far she could, she moaned deeply, eyes closed, body tensed then relaxed,:: mm m'love:; she knew that voice not to be his, emerald hues opened to gaze to him, her hands slipped over his back, she didn?t know how it was possible he did not taste her blood:: m'love ::she moaned:: mm yes...

:his sharp features turned upwards slowly into a malicious grin, those long sharp features looking deeply into her emerald gaze as that moan parted her crimson tiers. Those long heavy hands pulled her tightly into his every thrust his pace quickening to fill her silken womanhood. He leaned in slowly until his warm breath lingered just above her ear, she could suddenly feel the length of his long slender tail as it wrapped about her leg, running up along her thigh. That same inhuman hiss meeting her ears from just inches away:: Yes pet...I've missed you already

her eyes fluttered closed with a moan. She gave in to him, her body only getting wetter and hotter, her breath quickened... as her breasts heaved against his chest.:: ohhh :; she felt that tail about her leg, so sudden, it ran a shock through her and a moan parted her lips

:he groaned softly as he felt her body tighten and spasm around his iron shaft, dipping himself deeper within her, that moan only forcing him to quicken his preternatural pace. He felt the hardened nubs of her nipples burying themselves in his broad dark chest, his back arching to bury himself deeper within her, his lips sinking slowly down along her collar until they brushed across those bare breasts, begging for his attentions, those long sharp teeth parting momentarily to nip at her exposed silken skin:

:another shiver and moan went through her form, as she felt his lips at her tender nipples... her body only gave in to him more, nails digging deeply in to his back:;

he felt her shudder around him, bending her back across that long slender hand resting upon the small of her back, his quick powerful thrust working into her body as that long serpentine tongue flickered slowly out to trace a slow rough circle around her tender pink aureoles, drawing back an inch teasingly, she heard his voice creeping slowly upon her ears:: Say my name lover, and I will be free...

M'love...:;she shuddered, closing her eyes. her mind was swimming, between darkness and light she could not recall his name, she moaned and did all she could to gain strength from her body::

:he grinned softly, that long tongue darting out instantly to wrap about the erect flesh of her nipple, wrapping and pulling tightly at her tender pink bud, his voice grew stronger now, that malicious hiss creeping slowly into her senses, like that long slender length of his tail that curled and wrapped slowly up along her thigh:: The demon Imbrium...Say it pet...

she moaned softly and repeated his words:: The demon Imbrium...::she gasp softly for air...:Her body gave in to him, her own darkness creeping in to her hands, as those nails grew, long and crimson? her hair in an instant was darker, with streaks of deep crimson and raven black. The passion filled her eyes, as they flickered open, still emerald colored as she fought to gain control . Her body gave in to him, that pulse of magic leapt from her finger tips. And down his back? long nails dug in to his skin as she moaned deeply.

his sharp features turned upwards into a wolfen grin, drawing back his lips until his eyes met hers, a sudden sinking sensation seemed to creep into her mind, that dark gaze spreading a ring like a halo of shadow about his head. He could feel her own sharp be weapon nails as they pressed sharply into his dark hardened back. His own long taloned hands drew down slowly along her hips, pulling her into his rough steady stroke as he ground his heavy frame to hers.:: Well done pet...You won't regret it...

She caught his gaze and shivered softly:: I hope not..:; another moan... a s a dark light grew in the emerald gaze, still tight upon his as her nails dug in deeper, drawing her self tighter against him, pushing him, willing him deeper::

:he arched his long lean body, his long broad demonic member withdrawing dauntingly from her body for but a moment as he felt that rush of hot desire flooding from her uncontrolled thoughts, a dark sharp grin creeping across his features once more as broad leathery wings rose from his back, rising out of the steaming waters to fill the expanse of their shelter. He leaned closely, forked tongue brushing her ear as his serpentine voice slowly penetrated her senses:: I am yours now pet...Tell me what it is you have summoned me for.

:She smirked, moaning softly:: summoned, I have summoned you my pet..? ::Her eyes flickered witha darkness yet unseen, the desire rushed her mind, going through her body like a spark of lightning. Her hands drew up his back, sparks of magic flying:: I summoned you to be my lover, to please me, to take me as you wish :: her voice darkened::

his body lingered still, grinding roughly against her naked thigh. He moved sharply, regathering himself as he felt those energies gathered upon her fingertips, drawing iron member instantly from her body, his hands at her hips moving instantly to turn her around against him, his hard elongated palms sinking to part her silken thighs, leaning back to press that hard member against her teasingly from behind. His long serpentine body arched until his lips lingered about her bare neck once more, his voice meeting her ears, a sharp sensual hiss:: As I wish?

:She moaned deeply, closing her eyes:: yes my love as you wish :: she smirked softly feeling him press in to her from behind::

::he shuddered suddenly at her moan of consent, giving in even more than he would like to her knowledge of her power over him. In one fluid quick motion he pressed his that hardened throbbing member deeply into her awaiting womanhood to fill her completely with his burning flesh. His long hands slid up along her bare naked stomach and chest, that long slender draconic tail wrapped slowly up between her naked thighs::

She shivered and moaned deeply, chanting her head back:: mm yes... :: her voice darker still, her eyes flickered shut, at the feeling of his hands and that tail.:: MM my love..:; her fingers danced down over his hands, sparking wildly with magic..:;

:he pressed sharply within her tight walls, filling her with each quick fluid stroke of his massive body, his long sharp fingertips running across her naked stomach to knead her tender exposed breast in his long strong palm. She could feel his warm breath as it flooded across the nape of her neck. Even his own great body shivered again as he felt the excitement of her slip into darkness, the close release of the beast hidden somewhere within his pure maiden::

she shivered at his breath across her neck:; mm careful pet..:; her eyes flickered open, shimmering with a darkness all their own:; you might get more than you bargained for from this slayer...:;magic drifted over him, dark, delightfully dark::

::he growled sharply, pushing himself in one sudden hard thrust to completely fill her tight silken walls, reveling as he felt her creep closer to that release that already coursed across his own demonic form. His very touch burned upon her naked body wherever his touch ran across that slender darkening frame:: Let yourself go lover...We will be free tonight

;She smirked:: I am not sure you know what your getting in to lover of mine:; she titled her head back to gaze in to his eyes, her so dark, filled with a billion little sparkling points like stars trapped in abyss of black sky, a soft hint of crimson colored those black tinted eyes .Her breasts heaved against his hands, her hips shifted backward in to him, with a deep purr of a moan::

he growled sharply, leaning down instantly to press this long thin lips to her bare neck, his hand rising up to run along her neck, tilting her head back to nip at the tender exposed skin of her collar. His hand at her breast opened, sharp fingertips tracing slowly around her enflamed pink aureoles to pinch once more at her exposed rosebud of her nipples as he felt her push herself into his touch:: Yes lover, show me everything...

she smirked deeply, and let those eyes slip shut, her hands sparked with dark magic, like lightning. She lifted her hand up and across his face and planted a very deep kiss to those thin lips, that shock of magic traveling through her lips and on to his, she with drew from the kiss, biting down upon those savory lips and flicking her tongue out at him:: You asked for it. My love

he growled sharply, his coal black gaze filling her darkened eyes, he drew himself into her kiss, pressing his lips tightly to hers once more, that long forked tongue flicking out along her own tiers, his hand rising up to cup her exposed breast within his palm once more, kneading roughly against her naked body::

;she smirked opening those darkened eyes, witha deep moan. She smirked and witha sudden force, pressed her hand to his shoulder and pushed his back against the wall, holding him steady with a gained strength, she pressed her body close to his:: I am not so sure you want me to be free my love, I might hurt you

he grinned sharply at her burst of strength, even surprised a moment as she overcame him. In a moment though that long slender tail whipped sharply at her leg, pulling her balance from beneath her only to catch her once more in those long demonic arms, pressing her back roughly as he pressed himself into her awaiting body to pierce her in one long heavy burst of preternatural strength to rock himself into her once more:: You are strong love, but you do not worry me...::he rocked back slowly, that powerful stroke filling her body against as his lips met her ear:: Show me yourself pet...

::she moaned softly :;mmm :: she smirked deeply at him:: as you wish...:: her eyes flickered shut, her hands sparked with the darkest magic?s she had ever wielded. In a moments time, her body became hotter and wetter and tighter around him. She was no daemon, but long ago she had not always been good and pure. Her hands rested tightly upon his shoulders, she pulled her body closer, as those dark magic?s slipped down his back like a rapid wild fire, her eyes opened, a deep dark flame there in her once emerald gaze now black. As the darkest nights. with the softest undertones of crimson, she pushed against him hard, again pushing him to the wall, tightly, she smirked deeply, as those long claw like nails dug in to his shoulders::

::he fell backwards allowing her to drive him harshly into that rock wall, arching his back suddenly as a burst of sudden pleasure shook his massive frame, those dark energies gathering within her leaping outwards to coarse through him where there bodies met, one long taloned hand rising up to entangle in her hair, cupping her head in his palm, his own black engulfing gaze met hers, a shudder of excitement parting his thin elven lips::

she smirked to him, feeling that shudder pass through his form:: is this what you wanted my pet? :: she kissed along his neck, nipping softly up over his ears, then she bit down on his lower lips and licked across it slowly::

:he nipped sharply upon her lip, licking softly at the gentle red whelp that developed from those sharp canines, his heavy quick stroke never slowing as his long slender hand drew across her bare naked hind, pulling her into him:: Lovely pet...

she smirked and pressed in closer to him, dark magic?s flowed freely down his arms and across his back, sparking from her fingers. She pressed in to him tightly, her dark hues shifted and that smirk grew.. as she lowered her head and kissed along his neck line again, slowly, tenderly kissing then fiercely biting down on the flesh:;

:he jerked sharply into her as he felt that sudden sharp bite upon his unguarded neck, a dark animal growl reaching forth from deep within his throat. His body arched to meet the curve of her lithe form, pressing to her impossible tightly, leaning back his long neck to expose himself completely to her, a malicious grin creeping across his sharp wolfen features as he recovered his composure. His voice was a sharp growl upon her ears, filled with the mildest hint of playful malice. Leaning in to nip sharply at the nape of her neck:: You will pay for that lover...

:she moaned deeply at his voice, licking across his neck slowly as she with drew :; mm pay :;she play pouted, her eyes shimmering with mischief:: mm what ever will you do to me? :: a wide smirk crossed her fair features::



he growled softly, his sharp features turning to look straight into hers. Even as his cold black irises met hers she could feel a sinking sensation as if falling into a pit. Cocking his brow playfully, he arched his body into a sharp quick pulse, driving himself completely to the hilt into her slender body wrapped about him. He leaned slowly down, his long serpentine tongue flicking out deftly across her hardened pink nipple as his cold dark gaze held hers:: ::his voice was a low subtle hiss as he leaned closer to whisper into her ear:: Anything I want...


: She smirked and moaned deeply, closing her eyes with a shiver feeling that deepening sensation of falling deep in to a pit, but it only made those wild dark magic?s at her finger tips flare more:: mm yes what ever you want...::she purred softly::

::he shuddered softly against her, the sensation running through his massive heavy frame pressed tightly to her body, suddenly she could feel his engorged member as it slid from her body, his warm breath sinking down across her naked chest, lips grazing her bare breast ever so slightly to nip at her tender flesh with those elongated razor canines::

:her smirk widened, as her chest heaved from those show slow breaths she took, getting more excited with each passing moment, those dark hues opened, looking down to watch him::

his black gaze lowered slowly down across her body, his scalding breath running in sharp bursts over her naked body. His long arms slid up beneath her bare ass to support the weight of her body where it lay out before him, his descending breath sunk until she could feel that burning rush of air between her wet open thighs::

Mmm ::she moaned softly, feeling that hot breath between her legs:: going to have a taste lover ::she smirked as she asked that question, spreading her legs a bit more::


:his only response was a sharp growl as the scent of her sex wafted through his preternatural senses to send another involuntary shudder through his massive frame. Even as his thin lips parted to graze her silken thigh he himself could hardly believe the desire that seemed to cloud his mind with lust. His hands at her back drew slowly down along her softly curving spine, leaving a slow deliberate line of scratches trailing down her naked back, she felt the long prehensile length of his tail as it crept slowly up along her naked thigh::

::she smirked moaning softly at those shudders she felt from him. Her back arched at his touch, savoring in those long deliberate scratches. another moan parted her lips at the feeling of that tail creeping its way along her thigh:: mmm tease...

:his lips played slowly between her warm inviting thighs, brushing just for a moment across the soft glistening rough of her womanhood. She felt the hard insistent drive of his tail as he slid up along the inside of her leg, working its way slowly up along her naked stomach, his dark eyes turned upwards to watch with pleasure that soft moan that subdued her body to his touch. His voice was slow and playful as it reached her ears:: I can show you pleasures that fool elf Chrissium never could...

:she moaned, deeply for a moment, some where deep in her mind, she heard him, the good pure her at least, and for a moment she knew what she had done:; he is no fool... :: now she fought for control again, trying to push back that darkness that had invaded her mind, but it was a losing battle:: then show me :; that dark voice crept out again::

he smirked mischievously as he felt that subtle hint of resistance enter her voice, and in a moment that natural desire pushing it careening from her mind. In an instant she felt his hot breath upon her excited sex, his long forked tongue darting deftly from between his thin elven lips to pierce her body in one supernaturally strong driving thrust into her body. His long arms tightened around her, pulling her roughly up against him as she felt the first quick heavy stroke of his tongue::


a deep moan passed through her body, along witha shiver of pleasure, and a spark of magic that leapt from her finger tips, her body gave in to him again, giving in to that lust and desire: which over powered all other senses:: mm yes..:: her voice rang out

:his tongue plunged deeper into the depths of her heat, those pointed tips flicking against her clit as he worked that warm wet length in and out of her slit. His long pointed teeth just grazed her naked thigh, his pace only quickening as he heard that soft moan of acceptance from between her parted tiers::

she only moaned louder, at the feeling of those pointed tips flicking against her clit, a shiver passed through her body as she felt those teeth near her thigh:; mmm yes,, :she spread her legs a bit more, as the pace quickened so did the amount of her wetness::

:his claws at her naked hind pressed softly against her to leave a soft line of bleeding welts where he touched her bare tender flesh. He felt her thighs part desperately wide for his invasion, her hips bucking softly back against his darting tongue, impaling her deeper and deeper. She felt the length of his tail as it slid along her naked stomach. Between the vicious thrusts of that long forked tongue she could hear his voice, a hoarse growling whisper.:: That's it's my pet, give yourself to me...

::She moaned deeply, shaking violently , with that deepening pace of his tongue. Her body gave in to him, giving in tot hat darkness that invaded her mind and body. Her knees started to bend upwards. As she slid her hands down to dig those claw like nails across his shoulders.. And over the back of his neck::

:she felt his warm breath against her thigh, his deep voice filling her ears as he spoke softly, slowly, the full power of his words sinking into her senses between each incredibly fast pulse of his long draconian tongue:: You are mine pet...::he could feel the excitement, that hot desire that was a stranger even to her. He nibbled and bit playfully at her excited body, suddenly feeling his bitter cold talon against her flushed cheek, leaving a slow angry welt as it raked slowly down along her tender ivory flesh between the valley of her naked breasts. He could feel her nipples harden as he pressed the icy pad of each finger against her tender flesh, cupping the globes in his rough callous hand before roughly twisting the her coral nub::

;She moaned deeply again, and yelled out in pleasure or pain from that long talon mark between her breasts, then she moaned again. And bit down on her lower lip as he slid his cold hands down over her breasts, that lip was bitten in to harder as he twisted her coral nub:; my love :: the words hissed out of he lips as she could taste blood in her mouth, her blood. She closed her eyes tightly, her mind giving in the that darkness that swelled around her, but some where deep in her mind there was a flicker.. A memory.. Perhaps of what happened the last time she had given in like this..:: ahh ! :; the part moan part scream parted her lips::

:he shuddered softly, that long demonic tongue flicking once more to part the soft pink folds of her cunt before drawing slowly roughly away, his long probing tongue tracing slowly up as his lips met hers, pressing himself between her thighs once more to fill her once more with that massive demonic member, his tongue flicking out playfully along hers, the prehensile length of his tail curling and slipping down along her naked thigh until the sharp flicking tip slipped slowly up along the crack of her bare ass. His taloned hand ground roughly against the mounded flesh of her naked breast, the full venomous force of his voice weighing heavily upon her:: Yes my little pet, cum for me...Let yourself go...

:she moaned deeply, pressing in in to him, parting her legs even wider, as she shook with lust and desire.. deep heavy breaths taken, as her body shook under his. as that rush of warmth passed through her, those dark magic?s leaping from those claw like finger nails and over his back as she came::

he arched his back sharply into her body, feeling that sudden release of her body as that pleasure rocked through her, growling sharply at that impulsive parting of her legs, burying himself deeply in her body as he felt that sudden spasm of her body as it shook around him, those dark powers arching upwards across his massive bare back, the sudden release of his own dark pleasure imminent. She could feel him spasm and release within her, a sudden explosion of his hot pleasure as he filled her body with the sharp slap of his ejaculation. In a moment he arched his back, thin lips parting to howl sharply to that shimmering orb of the moon.::


:she smirked, breathing deeply. Her heart raced, as she licked her lips, still tasting her own blood there. Her body tingled with desire and pleasure as well as magic.. her dark hues shifted over him, and that smirk widened:: mm my love.. ::her voice still dark tinged with magic::

::he shuddered sharply against her, that warm breath sinking down across her bare neck as he tilted his head to hers, leaning in to press his lips tightly to her parted tiers, driving himself into her with one last powerful thrust to milk that bit of burning pleasure from his still hardened manhood, drawing back but an inch until his dark orbs met hers once more, a cool dangerous gaze upon his sharp wolfen features:: Mmm...My dark little pet...Now that you have tasted me how can you desire that pitiful elf again?


she shivered and her dark hues shifted quickly back to emerald:: he?s is not pitiful.. :;that was her normal voice, she shuddered and the darkness too her over again:: mm i enjoy the taste :: her eyes shifted back again, as in her mind she fought the timeless battle she'd been fighting most of her mortal and non-mortal days.. good vs. evil...::

he cocked his brow at that subtle shift in her voice, leaning in to lick lightly at that lingering taste of blood upon her lips, his eyes flicking shut for a moment, though that demonic energy did not dissipate within him this night. Even where his taloned hands drew slow tender lines across her naked back, drawing her tightly against his massive frame, long black wings sinking to shut slowly about them:: Mmm...Good...You have tasted my vitae now lover...I will not wait so long to come visit...

:she tilted her neck softly, the pale moon light caressing that soft curve of her exposed neck, so very inviting. she shuddered again, her breath becoming heavier as those darkened features faded from her visage. Those claw like nails shorted, that darkened raven hair lightened back to its normal soft brown with hints of red, her lips shimmered back to a rosy pink, her skin more sun kissed again, the last thing to change back would be those dark eyes, which slowly shifted back to Emerald Those hues gazed to him a bit in fear a bit still in desire as the last of those dark magic?s clung on::


:his lips turned sharply into a vicious laugh as his eyes locked upon hers, watching that change come slowly back upon that slender pure little girl tightly bound within his hard muscular arms, still sensing that lingering desire that would never again be dispelled from her deepest darkest thoughts. Leaning in slowly until his lips brushed that supple nape of her neck once more, almost tenderly.:: Admit it lover...It was me that you saw in the grotto that night, lurking behind his dull mortal eyes...This darkness is your desire.

she pressed against his frame as he leaned down against her, she would not admit to that, though she might want to, she merely shivered against him, deep in her darkest desires and thoughts she knew it to be some what true. But not completely. She had desired the man, the one who had brought her comfort in a dark time, the man who loved her, and had kissed her so softly, yet urging. .the man that loved her, and made her his wife. She looked down to that hang where that ring sat upon her finger, she was still silent::

:he grinned softly, leaning in to brush his lips just past the nape of her neck, his voice a low malicious laugh as it slipped through her senses:: No matter love...In the morning your mate will be back...::he smirked softly, turning a dark glance to follow hers:: But remember my name lover...I have no doubt you will call for me again...


:her gaze met his, she knew that she would again wish for that deepest darkest desire::

::Yet that deep dark desire had arisen a darknes sin them bith, he had to choose to leave, or risk hurting ehr, he would find a way to make hims elf not so dangerous to her, he looked down to ehr sleeping form, kissing her lovely brow with thsoe darkened hairs upon it before he leapt of fin tot he shadows::
