Southern Glen - 1 mile from the Den.
Mirius was in her white dress with the scarf tighed around her waist once again. It was good to keep up the idea that she was being harmless and innocent looking, and walking around with guns all the time was not necessarily helping. Even of thos events, she felt like relaxing for the moment, walking through the forest of the southern glen by herself quietly.

Igneous: Mirius would soon feel and barely here Igneous walking with her as if he materialized out of thin air.

Mirius Pojoris: She looked over to her side and grinned. "Well, if it ain't the general himself. What brings ye here?"

Igneous: "Seeing how your progress is going. Have you gathered more information?"

Mirius Pojoris: "Very much so." She smiled and looked forward while they walked. "Seems there's been a lot goin' on in that Den of theirs. And seems I am just another innocent lupinossai there, of course I ain't taken it fer granted."

Igneous: He chuckled. "Yes. I can't see you being just another boring female with a child. So how bad is this Den?"

Mirius Pojoris: "Oh, ye find me interestin'?" She winked to him with a laugh. "Anyways, seems their Alphrans, Vuusoolta, had used someone to kill off other council members. And apparently the one who served him was against his own will. Somethin' about his items forcin' him to do all the work."

Igneous: Igneous thought about that for a moment. "Was the servant named Mogriil?"

Mirius Pojoris: She looked to him. "Ye it was. How'd y'know?"

Igneous: "How could I forget such a nasty mage killer." he grimaced. "So what became of Mogriil?"

Mirius Pojoris: "Well, looked like he was innocent if ye look at him the other way. He did things he didn't want to, but anyways...apparently, he got sentenced 20 years to someone called Aramus and for him to get neutered. Only saw that Aramus fella fer a few minutes er so, but it ain't no lupe I can tell ye that."

Igneous: "Amusing. Exiled and sterilized." He laughed loudly. "Sounds about as pathetic as the Wolf rebel leader I personally whipped and castrated in the Old Country. Street was his name I believe." he grinned with fond memory. "At least Mogriil will not be a problem now. So the Alphrans has mud all over him then?"

Mirius Pojoris: "Oh yeah." She smirked. "And I met Street. What a charmin' fella."

Igneous: He raised a furred brow hearing Mirius. "He is here?"

Mirius Pojoris: "Mhmm. But Igneous, I have to tell ye somethin'. Don't get blood thirsty yet. I'm tryin' to see if I can work some people over within' the Den. Maybe start some riots. It seems the people within the Den have many racin' thoughts about everythin' that goes on. And many seem to have some lack in confidence in their law holders." She grinned. "But not like it be all I havin' ideas about."

Igneous: "I see. So who all have you won over so far?"

Mirius Pojoris: "None as of permenantly. I got Street thinkin', but ye know it is family he'd be havin' to go up against. And fer others I got them to think I'm just a bit misudnerstood and harmless truly." Oh and then she pulled out her ID card and handed it to Igneous. "Ye like?" She snickered.

Igneous: He looked at the plastic thing. "What is this?"

Mirius Pojoris: "An ID card that lets me get into the Den. All thanks to Ammy Spiritor. I can get just about anywhere I like with this little thing."

Igneous: Igneous grinned. "Well aren't you the resourceful little cuss. Is Ammy on our side yet?"

Mirius Pojoris: "Well, things like that are hard y'know. She ain't wantin' war. She just wantin' everyone to get along. And she healed me from dyin'. So, even if she ain't on our side exactly, she still be helpin' in a sense." She snickered evilly.

Igneous: "A weapon with a sense of morals and pitty? Maybe I should meet her and remind her of her purpose." he said a bit darkly.

Mirius Pojoris: "If ye do leave me out of it. I told 'em I ain't hurting her or her family. I have to keep me word if I want to stay in that den y'know. Understand?"

Igneous: He paused in his walking to look at her for a long moment considering a few things.

Mirius Pojoris: She stopped when he paused, looking at him. "Ye okay?"

Igneous: "That makes sense I will have to admit. Having you within stirring things up is more advantageous than having you physically in an assault." he kept thinking for a moment or two. "Have you run into Fleetian Wolf yet?"

Mirius Pojoris: "Aye, I have. Had the chance to kill him. Instead he and I had a little talk."

Igneous: "How did that go?" he smirked.

Mirius Pojoris: "Quite nice. He just be more worried about knowin' how many injuries he's gonna have to be healin'." She grinned. "Told him to stay out of me way and he and his family will be just fine. And so far I've kept me words. I ain't hurt a fly yet."

Igneous: This greatly amused Igneous. "He didn't try to kill you and he's more worried about the wounded? You sure he is Fleetian Wolf?"

Mirius Pojoris: "Father of Vuusoolta ye." She grinned. "Talked about how he be missin' fer so long and came back only to find everyone missin'. How there be only like what...four of 'em left alive?"

Igneous: Igneous was starting to get a sly grin on his muzzle. "So he is unaware of the full extent of the wars then?"

Mirius Pojoris: "I would believe so." She grinned at him. "Oh, and where did magical items that Mogriil had come from? Do ye know?"

Igneous: "A Spiritor mage long dead for being a traitor." He grinned. "Maybe, just maybe if we play our cards right, we may not need an army to conquer the Den. It would be nice to not have to invest heavily in restoring lost wealth and property." Igneous said with a sage nod.

Mirius Pojoris: "That is a shame. I was hopin' we could get somethin' like 'em, but seems other things can suffice." She sighed. "But of coures I'll explore this Den even more. Find out more areas of it and a layout. Perhaps, I can talk to maybe less fortunate lupes within the den. With all them brewin' thoughts and people jumpin' up to scream at each other in courtrooms really be a godo sign."

Igneous: He nodded. "Oh, I would love a grand battle, and I have been gathering quite the force of sentient dire wolves, ogres, orcs, a few lychs with a battallion or two of skeleton warriors and a large band of ronin samurais." He grinned.

Mirius Pojoris: "And I thought I be doin' good." Mirius chuckled. "Me job is kinda painful. I can't be talkin' to the masses. I have to pick and choose and talk to individuals." She rubbed her head and leaned against a tree. "If I could just get somethin' bad to happen, make the higher ups react and get forceful, it'd get others to panic and get lost in confusion."

Igneous: "It has not been easy for me. I have been gone longer than I wished and have made more deals than I wished to be held to. Though having the Ebony Knight as an ally has given me weight with the evil creatures of this land. As to your thoughts, maybe you should ask Ammy to make a concoction that will make Lupes ill and use it in the water system? Spread a health panic that will put pressure on the leaders. Nothing lethal, just very uncomfortable and nasty." he chuckled.

Mirius Pojoris: "Oh that be nice, but see Ammy wouldn't be doin' that on her own, ye know. How would I suggest her to make such a chemical?"

Igneous: "That is a puzzle for you my clever spy." he grinned.

Mirius Pojoris: She chuckled. "Oh, but if I do get it. I believe I know how to get it into the water system without me gettin' in trouble." Mirius leand forward and off of the tree. "I mean every city has desperate poor ye? I could always find someone who be extremely desperate and maybe mak 'em do a lil' task fer me to get some money. Maybe a single parent stugglin' to feed their pups."

Igneous: "Now you are thinking like a Spiritor." he grinned.

Mirius Pojoris: She snickered. "But all just plans on getting that chemical." Mirius tapped her chin ."Problem is what if I don't get it...."

Igneous: "Think of another tactic to get the same results."

Mirius Pojoris: "What? Get it from someone else?" Mirius raised a furry eyebrow

Igneous: "No. I'm implying that if plan A does not work. Then have a plan B for causing the same type of panic."

Mirius Pojoris: "Well, I ain't got any ideas on that yet. Unless I just get someone to steal from a shop of hers I so hear about a lot."

Igneous: Igneous sighed and just shook his head. "Panic is what you are aiming for with the public. If the chemical is not on paw then simply find something else that is attrocious and draw attention to it and let the public go mad."

Mirius Pojoris: She rolled her eyes. "Kinda what I was already doin'. Figured ye were still referrin' to the concuction."

Igneous: He just chuckled. "Very well. Continue with your missions then and gave that daughter a hug for me." and with that he walked off and vanished into the woods.

Mirius Pojoris: "And don't ye be startin' too much trouble." She snickered and waved to him, watching him vanish.

Meanwhile, within the Den walls.

Iimiidiina: Iimii was just off of class. He walks the streets of the Den, cloak around his shoulders over the grey apprentice robes. Valla was waiting outside the walls, Hephaestus followed close behind. He moved with purpose, first towards Ammy's house. He pounds on the door. "Mom!"

No response was given at the pounding. No one seemed to be home today. A page opened the door to Vuu's office. "Alphrans, you have a visitor to see you."

Iimiidiina: "Aaf," he shouts in frustration. He'll try the shop next. He walks away from the door and goes toward Mom's shop.

Vuusoolta Wolf: Vuu looked up from studying a few things. He was a bit rattled by hearing the outcome of the trial and possible suspicions now renewed. "Who is it?"

"An Ammy Spiritor. Claims to be your stepmother." the page said.

Vuusoolta Wolf: "Send her in."

The page waved for Ammy to enter the office then closed the door.

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy stepped inside and when the door shut the Page for some reason decides to lock the doors as three Den Fangs walk in and take up a guard position in the house. They all seemed to be in a daze.

Iimiidiina: He comes to the Alchemy shop next, but the lights were off. She wasn't in. Hmm, wonder where that Lupe is that is -supposed- to be making deliveries for her. He sighs, then heads for the hospital. Maybe Fleet or some nurse knew where she was.

Vuusoolta Wolf: Vuu stood up and looked at Ammy. "Evening." he said refraining from saying her name or calling her mother. "You wish to speak with me?"

Iimiidiina may notice a few Den Fangs missing from their usual posts.

Iimiidiina: He goes up to the receptionist's desk. "Excuse me, ma'am? Do you know where my Mom, Ammy Spiritor, is? She's married to Fleet."

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius sighed and wandered through the Glen some more in her white loose dress. She decided to walk for he den, but she only took her time. Time was after all a factor of making the Den fall.

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy grimmaced. "No, 'Hello mother? Nice to see you mom?" She sighed. "You never have liked me, even after I made sure they didn't burn your body, and placed you within a regeneration crystal." she said with some sadness.

The nurse at the Hospital mentioned that she may be speaking with Vuusoolta about a magic teaching course for the Lupinossai Learning Center that was to open soon.

Vuusoolta Wolf: "How can I appreciate a woman, no, a female Spiritor who has more faces than a chaemelion? I am still surprised father found something to love in you."

Iimiidiina: That's a start. She wasn't at the usual spots. "Thanks. Tell Grandad I said thank you for the birthday gift, too, if he's in right now." With that, Iimii heads out and walks for the Alphrans house. Where are all the Fangs tonight? Maybe running a search party or something.

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy just crossed her arms for a long minute. "I am growing weary of this hatred of Spiritors. Why must we be hated? You have cost the freedom and manhood of a Lupe who was killing for you against your will. You have single handedly managed a coup in this Den and have taken full advantage of rising up from the dead. I swear your more Spiritor than I."

Iimiidiina: Iimii pounds on the door of the Alphran's compound. "Mom! Brother! Open up!"

Vuusoolta Wolf: "Interesting acusation for a b***h who's put up at least one demon tower in this Den under everyone's noses, had a daughter who brought an evil goddess in that destroyed most of the Den, and has managed to get exiled by her own people. Want me to make it a second time...mother." he said the last with a snarl.

Iimiidiina: "OPEN UP."

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius slowly walked up to the Den. Never did she forget that ID card to show the guards at the gate to get in to the Den. It was time for just a little bit of site seeing. Only to common areas of course. She wouldn't go into anything too shady.

The door opened enough for a Den Fang to look down at Iimii. *What do you want?*

Ammy Spiritor: "So you threaten to do away with me just like Mogriil? You do realize how dangerous it is to anger Street the way you have?"

Iimiidiina: Good thing he was answered. He was just about to break out his wand and amplify his voice. "I need to see my Mom. Ammy Spiritor. I know she's in there and I must see her." Hephaestus leers over his master, watching the Fang.

Vuusoolta Wolf: "Street is family, unlike you. He was born into our clan not brought in like some arranged peace marriage. He wouldn't dare attack me, or I'll seek out father for a honor dual between the two." he crossed his arms. He knew the laws new and old. Hell he wrote the new ones.

The Den Fang just looked at Iimii and Hephaestus. A slight distance in his gaze. "Den Alphrans and Her are meeting. They are not to be disturbed until the meeting is over."

Iimiidiina: "Tough. This involves the Alphrans, it might even be better if he was here. I'm not going to be denied entrance by you."

Iimiidiina: "I must see her."

Ammy Spiritor: "Ah, the tyranical side of Great Den Wolf is finally showing in you. Fleetian was spared that trait fortunately. You want to know why my Den came after yours? We hated the egotism and the fact you forced us all into the desert and caves just for being magic users."

Mirius Pojoris: After Mirius was simply inside the Den she headed towards the market district. Perhaps she could find a map or something of this place that could be sold. It would be a lot easier than just figuring this all out the hard way.

Iimiidiina: He wasn't going to bother with any mind tricks. Fangs were trained to be wily to such tricks.

"Access denied." the door was closed and barred tight.

Vuusoolta Wolf: "Oh, so the Spiritors hold grudges too? Fancy that. What is your real reason for being here mother and the for bespelling my staff with psionics?"

Iimiidiina: "Heph." The powerful familiar starts barraging the door like a battering ram.

That draws the attention of Lupes on the street. A small crowd starts to gather to watch Iimii assault the Den Alphrans house.

Ammy Spiritor: "I come with a warning, Vuusoolta Wolf. You are not fit to lead this Den anymore. You have let contempt breed among the Lupinossai and have caused old wounds to be left open and fester. I have to ask you to step down, resign, and find a replacement, or there will be consequences."

Iimiidiina: "No no, wait. Stop. Stop!" Heph immediately stops and looks down at Iimii, confused. "This isn't right. We shouldn't intrude. That's against the law. We'll wait for her. This isn't right." Iimii takes a deep breath and calms his temper. "We'll wait for her. Either way, we'll get to her. We have to."

Iimiidiina: Iimii looks at the small crowd. "I do apologize for the commotion. There's nothing more to see."

The crowd looked a bit confused but eventually left.

Vuusoolta Wolf: "Consequences? You are threatening me in my own Den?" he laughed.

Mirius Pojoris: She did indeed find a store this late at night that was still open for a short while. Mirius had gone into the shop to buy a map of the den and paid the necessary money of course. She would leave the shop, looking at the map. "Hm." Her eyes looked up from the map and around her. A housing area...that would be a good place to examine. Perhaps see the living ocnditions of the Lupionossai in the Den. Her feet turned her to the appropriate direction and began to slowly walk.

Ammy Spiritor: "Correction. My Den. This place came out of blood, sweat, and tears that I've shed before you were around and I am sick of the Den being poorly lead. Will you stand down?"

Iimiidiina: Iimii sits down Indian-style on the pavement and closes his eyes. He let's his mind wander, and there they are, inside the compound. They must be speaking. But about what?

Vuusoolta Wolf: "Who'll take my position? You, a former exile that few trust any more than me? Father who has become a plaything for deities and is now more interested in healing than leading? Or maybe Stree who loves battle? Who else would you put in my position?"

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy's eyes flashed for a moment or two. "It doesn't have to be a Wolf to lead. I say you put Igneous Fi'igoo in leadership."

Vuusoolta Wolf: "Who is this Igneous Fi'igoo?" he asked suspicious.

Ammy Spiritor: "You may know him better as the Flame General of Spiritor." she grinned showing all teeth.

Vuusoolta Wolf: "Why would I put him in charge? He is worse than you, and will certainly enslave the Den. A Den you built on freedom for all."

Ammy Spiritor: "Why? Let me see. Maybe becuase he's been snooping around the Glen. Or maybe because I can feel the stirrings or an amassed evil that can only mean he has an army gathering." she said cooly.

Vuusoolta Wolf: "They will never get past the new magical shield."

Mirius Pojoris: She continued to walk, occasionally peering at the map. Mirius began to enter housing area. Those eyes of malice look around warily. Planning, scanning, looking for something to thrive her evil doings off of.

Ammy Spiritor: "Really now. Just how many Spiritors do you know living in this city that could be spies? Last time I checked the roster at least eight Spiritors live in the Den." she said with a grimace. "You have problems."

Iimiidiina: Iimii suddenly has a bad feeling. He opens his eyes, then stands up. He starts banging on the door. But a trick must be used. Hephaestus waits around the corner. He knocks.

The door opened a crack again. Again. "What do you want?" glazed look in the eyes.

Iimiidiina: "Stupefy!" The wand is drawn and the Fang is knocked out cold. Iimii sneaks inside with Hephaestus close behind.

The Fang is knocked out and lays on the floor.

Iimiidiina: Heph closes the door with his tail so as not to arouse suspicion from the street. Iimii keeps his wand drawn in case they can't sneak by any Fangs. Inside the compound, it becomes easy to track Ammy's and Vuu's auras.

Vuusoolta Wolf: Vuusoolta looked as if someone had thrown ice water on him. "How do you know? Have you been siding with the Spiritors that have been shooting Den Fangs?"

Four more Den Fangs guard the hallway and a Page. The Den Fangs block Iimii's way and they seem to shimmer with magic shields.

Iimiidiina: Iimii holds his wand at the Fangs. "Step aside." He notices the dazed look--are they bewitched?

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy felt Iimii and didn't show to Vuu that she was keeping the guards in thrall and shielding them. It was starting to wear on her. "The Spiritor I healed has not harmed anyone that I know of."

The Fangs do not respond, just keep blocking his way.

Vuusoolta Wolf: Vuu went quite for a moment. "You are a traitor then?"

Iimiidiina: Iimii goes toward him. Maybe the wand alone will cause them to part like the Red Sea.

Mirius Pojoris: Though, doing this at night surely wasn't the best, but there is commonly 'night life' within cities usually. But not like she could do anything with them if there is some unfortunate Lupinossai about. Maybe to manipulate them against the Den if she were to find some.

Lots of night life about.

The Fangs don't move. The magic shields spark ominusly around them.

Ammy Spiritor: "Traitor may be your label, but I wish to pull down the barriers within our people. If I must give aide to the enemy, then so be it."

Iimiidiina: "Hephaestus. Clear the way, please." The massive familiar goes toward them and tries to shove them aside. The Fangs will soon know that while he is of fire, he is as solid as rock.

The shield would repel the first attack but a small crack will show.

Iimiidiina: Maybe the conversation he eavesdropped on was useless now. Iimii tries to figure out just what is wrong with them as Hephaestus beats at the shield, trying to make them separate.

Vuusoolta Wolf: Vuu was quiet again and the office seemed to go deathly still. The room seemed to vibrate with magic.

The shiled soon cracks more then shatters. Ammy winced slightly but she was more concerned now with Vuu who was prepping magic.

Ammy Spiritor: "I wouldn't do that." she warned Vuu firmly.

Vuusoolta Wolf: The entire house was starting to resonate with magic as if any moment anything could come alive and attack.

Iimiidiina: Iimii leads the way as Hephaestus blows a hole. They run, no SPRINT, towards Ammy's and Vuu's auras. They are not bothered by the house. It only sustains their accusations that something is wrong. Iimii would Stupefy any Fangs that might try to stop them, including a bewitched Verbosk that was stationed behind a tapestry.

Mirius Pojoris: So, there was night life....But dark alleys were usually where things brewed. Not like she feared dark places. Mirius rolled up her map and saw a interesting dark alley. With a smirk she began to walk down it. Wonder if she would find anyone here...

Vuusoolta Wolf: Several wood boards shot out at Ammy from the floor and the walls.

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy caught a jagged board to the shoulder and turned. With ease she deconstructed the other boards with a touch of her paw. "Vuu, stop this. I don't want to fight you!"

Iimiidiina: The pair come to the door, and Iimii points his wand at it. "REDUCTO!" The door would explode inward.

Vuusoolta Wolf: "You come in here and make acusations then wave around consequences like you own this place and me. Let me show you that a real Alphrans is willing to prove himself against all challengers." he roared, the desk was sent right for Ammy, everything on it flying at her.

Iimiidiina: Should the spell work.

Ammy Spiritor: Hearing the word Reducto and the roar, Ammy hit the floor letting the desk fly through the exploding door and the shrapnell of the door to pepper the office.

Vuusoolta Wolf: Vuu shielded himself against the door shards and flung a bolt of lightning right for Ammy.

Iimiidiina: Hephaestus punches the flying desk, reducing it to splinters. They run in and Iimii points his wand at the room in general. "Immobulus!" This would cause everything to stop.

Ammy Spiritor: She countered with Force lightning and managed to get sizzled a little. Then Immobulus happened. Ammy's loaa wings flared and she leaped from the floor, took several steps and crashed out the window and hit the grass running.

Vuusoolta Wolf: Vuu was stopped though, looking a bit surprised.

Mirius would find a few street pups playing cards in the alley.

Mirius Pojoris: She saw the pups sitting there playing cards. Mirius grinned and walked up to them. "Well, hello there, pups. Havin' a good game?"

Iimiidiina: "Relashio." Iimii would release Vuu as Hephaestus chases after Ammy, moving equally as fast she is. Iimii, mean while, interrogates Vuu. "Alpha, what happened?"

The pups looked at her with interest. "A curse mam." one grinned. "She lookin' fancy."

Vuusoolta Wolf: "I was just told by your mother to give up my leadership to a Spiritor war mage." he said looking at the mess in his office now.

Mirius Pojoris: She chuckled. "Oh, well thank ye. I say where be yer parents at this hour, huh?" Mirius smirked at them and put her hands on her hips.

Iimiidiina: "What? No no no, that can't be."

Ammy Spiritor: She heard Hephaestus hot on her trail. She was already arming her deconstruction arrays to break him down into little bitty magic pieces.

"Maybe we offed dem lady. You have money?" another pup asked. A few more were getting closer to Mirius.

Vuusoolta Wolf: "Oh it is." he raised a paw and with magic started repairing the office. "She flat told me that if she must she will aide the enemy to break down the barriers of the Den.

Mirius Pojoris: She smirked. Trouble makers. "Offed 'em? Well, now. I guess we all got somethin' similar then, huh?" She moved her paws behind herself and held them together. "As fer money. That highly depends. Ye may just have to work fer it."

Mirius Pojoris: "Not that the offier I be makin' is hard...."

Iimiidiina: "Hephaestus! Let her go! Come back!" As if he would hear. But Heph is a familiar. Of course he can hear. Heph breaks off the pursuit and teleports back to Iimii's side. "She saved the Den! She can't possibly betray it!"

Ammy Spiritor: She let the deconstruction arrays fade with a sigh of relief. She'd rather not hurt Iimii. A few lupes were looking at the running Ammy covered in glass. She forced herslef to slow down and breath. She gave a charming smile to the others. "Experiment gone bad in the Philosophers Flask is all. Got knocked through the window." and she kept walking. Soon she was getting near a certain alley.

"Werk fer money?" the lead pup spat. "We'd rather take it frem ye."

Vuusoolta Wolf: "She's a Spiritor, Iimii. Evil to the core. She only does what she wants to further her goals."

Iimiidiina: "I don't believe that! I've seen her good side! She couldn't POSSIBLY betray us!" But he was simply in denial. Everything made sense: the healing, the absent nights, the shady going-ons.

Mirius Pojoris: She took out a nuukel and held it in paw out to him. "Take it. See that yer worthy. If ye can't take it. Then ye gonna do the simple task I ask."

Vuusoolta Wolf: "Don't let her fool you Iimii. She's not your mother. Ammy is nothing but a traitor that should die."

Mirius Pojoris: She may be looking pretty and fancy, but under all that was indeed a trained killer.

Iimiidiina: Iimii shakes his head. No. He was going to find her, and he was going to prove it. "You're wrong, Alpha." Iimii creates a mental picture of Ammy in his mind. Then Hephaestus and Iimii teleport right in front of her.

The lead pup looks like he's going to go for the coin, but another pup that came up behind her clicked the hammer on a musket behind her. "We no want hurt ye miss. Just give money and leave."

Vuusoolta Wolf: Vuu sighed and went about finishing up the cleaning. Then he sat and started writing up a letter for the Den Fangs.

Ammy Spiritor: Well Ammy wasn't expecting that and collided with Hepaestus.

Mirius Pojoris: Her ears twitched and she heard the click from the musket. "Let me guess. Old fashion weaponary that is decent to the very least? Ye gonna try and hurt me with that?" She snickered. "Pups, do ye even know who yer dealin' with?"

Iimiidiina: Iimii grabs Ammy's arms and the three of them teleport to a random location. This spot just happened to be a secluded wheat field on the edge of the Den. He grabs her arms and shakes them vigorously. "Why, Mom?! Why?! Why would you betray us?!"

One of the other pups looke at the lead pup. "She ain't right in the head, Jesp."

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy broke free of his grasp and stepped back a foot from him and Hephaestus. "You wouldn't understand Iimii."

Jesp looked to the gun pup. "Midg, don' waist the shot." he looked up to Mirius. "What kinda job?"

Mirius Pojoris: Muskets. Those were rifles. Rifles aren't meant for close range.... She spun around, ducking low at the same time. As her body spun aroudn her head was turned towards the the one with the musket and a paw went to grab the barrel and pull it away and at an angle that wasn't facing herself.

Iimiidiina: "Try me." He was staring intently at her as Flame would extend from his back and encircle them, stopping any escape for either of them.

The pup Midg lost hold on the musket and just backed away.

Mirius Pojoris: She held the musket in her paws. There, now she wasn't in danger. "Ye ain't suppose to use a gun of sorts at point blank, pups. A lesson fer later in life." She winked at Midg. Her eyes directed to Jesp and tossed the musket at him."First I must ask a few more things. How's the Den treatin' ye?"

Ammy Spiritor: She looked at Iimii. "All my life I was hated for being a Spiritor and being used as a magic weapon for war. This Den still hates me for being a Spiritor. With Igneous Fi'igoo in the realms, it's only a matter of time before he decides to find me and entrap me again into being Weapon 237 again." she said with a tremble in her voice. "I have to act fast to keep as many people alive before that happens. If the Den falls without a fight, many will live."

Jesp caught the gun and grunted. The pups went back to their card game. "Feh, we live. We steal. we have fun. The Den is just stupid adults."

Iimiidiina: "We will be slaves again, Mom! That is not what you want. That is not what I want. That isn't what ANYBODY wants! You do this, and you'll already be Weapon 237!"

Mirius Pojoris: She walked around them with her paws behind her back. "I couldn't agree more with ye. In fact, wouldn't ye like a change in this Den?"

Ammy Spiritor: "If I don't help, many will die Iimmii." she said head down and not looking at him. "No one realizes the danger poised outsidte the Den."

Iimiidiina: "I do! Mom, your agent almost killed me! Mom, you have to tell the truth and deal with it before it becomes too late!"

Jesp thought a moment. "Wha' kind change?"
Ammy Spiritor: "What truth Iimii? That I am tired of war? That I want conflicts to stop to the point I'd rather have the enemy conquer us then continue on being hated and loathed?" she said in frustration.

Iimiidiina: "You have been blessed by Canis, Mom... You can't possibly believe the words you are saying. You would spit Her gifts back in Her face just so you can be more comfortable?!"

Mirius Pojoris: "Wouldn't have to deal with them outrageous law enforcers about. And the very devious Alphrans. I mean if this was such a great den ye all wouldn't be sittin' here havin' a struggle would ye?" She raised a furry brow as she questioned.

Ammy Spiritor: "Ye have a point lady. some change may be nice." jesp said.

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy didn't look at Iimii. "How can you tell me that I am doing this to be more comfortable. Have you suffered as much as I have?" she asked with deep anquish.

Ammy Spiritor: "Have you been used as much as I have? Loved and hated? Killed and revived? Befriended and betrayed?"

Iimiidiina: "You're a coward. Have you even considered that we might have a chance at actually winning? That there are people in this Den who are suffering just as much as you are, who have to deal with hatreds and prejudices and all kinds of mu'udra on a daily basis? I have adults, even pups at the Orphanage, who look at me like I'm a monster that needs to be collared so I don't blow a crater somewhere!"

Mirius Pojoris: She took out some money. Enough to feed the pups for a couple days and dropped the money in the middle of their card game. "If ye want more money than this. Simply if I ever pas by again. Do as I ask. Nothing I be askin' be hard. In fact they may be very simple when I be returning. But first thing I ask. Tell yer friends around here and any unfortunate lupinossai. Cause a little trouble since ye like to. I'm sure it will be...fun." She smirked

"Yes'm." Jesp said and soon money was divied up.

Ammy Spiritor: "Have you seen the crater just outside the Den? I am just a broken weapon who dared dreamed to have a life beyond war. I can't help it when my past surfaces rearing it's ugly heads. I feel I am not in control anymore of my life. That history is about to repeat itself. All I've done so far is heal a poor Spiritor who was dying from alien parasites, help an orphan find a mother who is loving you just have to look past the weapons, and have promised not to interfere in their war."

Mirius Pojoris: "And just don't be pickin' anyone. Choose the stragglers in life. Ye know, the ones who really need the help n' change. Do your job well and don't be mentionin' a thing about me to any of them authorities. Otherwise I can't help the den be a better place. Understand, pups?"

Iimiidiina: "You just were interfering! You were helping them! That's even worse! Do you even care about me? About Lene?"

Ammy Spiritor: That was a low blow.

"Yes'm" the pups said.

Ammy Spiritor: "I do care." she whispered, pain in her voice.

Iimiidiina: "Then why do this? Would you see me a slave? My future pups slaves? What of Lene's new pup? What kind of a world would he live in when he can't even trust his own grandmother to do the right thing?"

Mirius Pojoris: "Good. Good. I may be seein' you all soon. Just look at me like an angel. I'm sure ye wouldn't deny and get a helpful angel into trouble." She winked to the pups and slowly began to walk away to leave the alley.

Ammy Spiritor: Her paws were trembling slightly. "How can I tell what is right and wrong anymore in this Den?"

Iimiidiina: "I can tell you one thing: what you are doing is not right. Why undo all of your hard work and sacrifices?" His voice becomes tender. "Ammy... Mother... we can beat them back. I know we can. You don't have to do this."

Ammy Spiritor: "But, Mirius hasn't hurt anyone since I made her promise. She can't be evil." Ammy said in a daze feeling quite a bit unsteady in everything.

Iimiidiina: "That's not her mission. I know what she's up to. Heph." The familiar opens his mouth, and soon the entire conversation between Mirius and Street would play out. See? She's sowing dissent. She's a virus, killing the Den from the inside."

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy sank to ground, holding her stomach. She had been used again.

Iimiidiina: "You have to do something, Ammy. She can't continue being inside the Den. She's probably already poisoned poor Rawsha."

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius began to walk down the streets again. Slow and casual. If things don't go smoothe, then they'll only get rough. There was always more and more plans.

Ammy Spiritor: "Can't be possible. Rawsha loves her. I've seen them together." Ammy said weakly.

Iimiidiina: "That is what I mean by poisoned! Don't you get it, Mom? She's a Soultre orphan, an outcast in the Orphanage. She's the perfect target to breed into the perfect assassin! You have to get Mirius out!"

Ammy Spiritor: "How?" she said, eyes closed. She felt used, sick, weak, and out of control.

Iimiidiina: "We find her. I can distract her, then, together, we can kick her out."

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius continued to walk down the streets. Those eyes of hers examined those she passed by, looking for anymore stragglers of the night. Of course, she has affected a few pups, but why not affect even more?

Ammy Spiritor: "I gave her my word Iimii. She's not evil. Misguided yes, but salvageable." Ammy said trying to find some hope in this.

Soon Mirius would see Den Fangs posting up flyers on walls, trees, and posts.

Iimiidiina: "Then you distract her, and I'll kick her out."

Ammy Spiritor: "Why...why...not capture her and rawsha together? Convince her to... join the Dens side?" her head hurt with all of this.

Mirius Pojoris: She saw the flyers about. Then she got curious and walked up to one to read it.

Iimiidiina: "You know that's not going to happen."

Ammy Spiritor: "How do you know? I can meld minds to my will." she said quietly not really wanting to say she had that power thanks to the demon lych she once knew.

Iimiidiina: "So I saw. But if she's an agent for a Spiritor war mage, she must have protection against such tricks."

Mirius would see the posters. They read ~Wanted Dead or Alive: Ammy Spiritor, Street Wolf, and any Spiritors acting suspiciously for crimes of Treason. 100 Diamon Nuukels Alive, 200 Diamon Nuukels Dead. Authorized by Den Alphrans Vuusoolta Wolf~

Ammy Spiritor: "I... I didn't feel any protection when around her..." she said with a stammer. Did she slip up somehow? Did she let her compassion for a fellow injured Spiritor trap her?

Iimiidiina: "We can't take any chances. She must be sent away. You know she has to leave, and then you need to apologize to Vuu. Now, come on. Get up. Let's do this."

Mirius Pojoris: Uh oh....Now was the time to make sure Mirius herself didn't screw up big time. She took a poster and rolled it up and kept it with the map she held. Mirius doesn't know what is going on, but surely enough she's got to find Ammy or Street. It wouldn't be good to hae potential allies to be captured. She began to move again now that her goal was changed. No time for the stragglers in life. They can wait.

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy stood shakily and walked with Iimii. Soon a howling shot was made from a farm house as lights came on. *HEY! I FOUND HER! CALL THE FANGS!* the farmer shouted.

Iimiidiina: "What the Fen?!" Flame disappears. "Aaf, Vuu must have put up notices!"

Ammy Spiritor: That didn't sound good at all. "So it begins." she gave Iimii a quick kiss and stunned him with a jolt of lightning. She vanished into the field heading for the Den wall quickly.

Iimiidiina: "Yap!" Iimii lies stunned on the ground. Hephaestus roars after Ammy. Stupid thing.

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius side and her pace picked up slightly. She didn't know where to go or look. She mumbled a few swears to herself, then a few other words she picked up from some other realms that didn't sound too nice either. If Ammy gets caught it would be hell to get her out.

Iimiidiina: Inside, he despairs. Vuu was right. She was a liar.

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy used her Loaa powers and vanished teleporting past the wall and in the midst of a patrol of Den Fangs. "Muudra." she cursed. *Lupis, it's her!* they shouted grabbing pistols.

Mirius Pojoris: Then she thought. Street. Mirius turned the other direction and headed for the cafe to see if he was there.

Ammy Spiritor: Clapping her paws she blinded them with a flash of light and kept running. Her aim was not to harm. A glance over her shoulder at the Den for a moment. "I'll make this all right some how Iimii. I promise. I just can't fall into Vuu's paws." then she ran for all she was worth.

The cafe staff told mirius they hadn't seen street for a few days.

Iimiidiina: Uh oh. Watch dogs. Hephaestus picks up Iimii and runs into the night.

Mirius Pojoris: She rubbed her head now getting a little frustrated. Vuusoolta was making this difficult for sure. Mirius looked at the staff. "Do any of ye even know where he is?"

The staff told her he left on his bike a day a go. never came back.

Mirius Pojoris: She groaned ."Thenk ye..." Mirius hurried out of the Den and went for the gate. She checked for her ID card...yep, she still had it...hope it doesn't become tainted from whatever is going on and make her unable to use it.

A guard stopped her and checked her ID card. He took it inside a booth to check something.

Mirius Pojoris: She simply waited feeling a tad bit nervous.

The guard came back out with another guard following. They didn't have her ID anymore.

Mirius Pojoris: She raised a brow at the guards. "Somethin' goin' on?"

*Yer under arrest for questioning.* one guard said, the other went to grab Mirius.

Iimiidiina: Iimii is put down as he regains control of his muscles. The pair walk to Valla, a worried Valla twitching about in the trees. ~I'm alright, my darling. Just a lot happening. No, don't worry yourself. Heph and I have this. If I need your help, I'll call for it. Just make sure that no enemies try to come in.~ He comes upon the gate just as Mirius is being arrested. He stops and watches.

Mirius Pojoris: "Whoa! Hold on!" She pulled away and backed up." Questionin' fer what? What's goin on? I ain't gettin' arrested fer no reason here."

*Ye work for the wanted Ammy Spiritor.* A few more guards were coming.

Ammy Spiritor: The clap of paws was heard and a small explosion threw chunks of ground pelting the Fangs.

Iimiidiina: "Whoa!" Iimii automatically pulls out his wand and holds it at the ready.

Mirius Pojoris: "Look. I'll be happy enough to answer yer question's right here and now, but ye ain't arrestin' me." She was caught in war before and was definitely not going to be arrested. At seing the Fangs being hit, Mirius made a run for it holding the map and poster in hand. Gee, hope those kids can get the word spread in the Den.

Iimiidiina: "Petrificus totalus!" The full body bind. And it was aimed right at the fleeing Mirius. He wasn't much thinking, only trying to help.

Mirius Pojoris: She looked back to see if anyone was chasing her, only to see Iimiidiina to be shooting a spell at her. Mirius jumped to the side and slid across the ground. It hurt some and now her dress was all dirty and getting messed up. She stumbled up her feet, having a hard time in the dress and ran for the forest.

Iimiidiina: "Stupefy!" Iimii chases after her. ~Valla, after her!~ The dragon roars and jumps Between, trying his best to get to a spot in front of Mirius. But such constant jumping made it inaccurate.

Ammy Spiritor: Suddenly a paw would grab mirius into the bushes as Ammy slammed a Cruciatos curse at Iimii. "This way." she whispered pulling her deeper off the trails to an old laboratory she had before the attacks on Rhydin.

Iimiidiina: The pup shouts and drops the wand. Valla would roar as well in shared pain.

Mirius Pojoris: Well, everything was catching her by surprise this night. And she was just pulled along with Ammy through the trails. "Ammy, whatis goin' on?" She demanded in a quiet tone.

Iimiidiina: With a simple command through the pain, Hephaestus tracks the fugitive as best as he can: with footprints.

Ammy Spiritor: "I had a chat with Vuu and he just about tried to kill me with his powers. I barely escaped then was questioned by Iimii. Now I am wanted." Using her alchemy she had the plants and ground regrow to obscure their tracks soon they reached a burnt out hulk of a building and ammy pulled mirius to a storm door, opening it and shoving her inside. She followed and shut the door locking it and with several arrays cast in the air rapidly hid them from magic and mundane detection. Ammy was tiring fast.

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius panted and leaned against a wall. "Great...and they're after me now..." She then handed Ammy the poster she and Street are wanted on. "Look at this."

Iimiidiina: Hephaestus growls, but continues to search, however fruitless is might be.

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy leaned against a wall slid to the charred floor. "I am not surprised." she was panting as well and looking thin.

Mirius Pojoris: "I looked fer Street..." She moved to Ammy's side and sat down beside her. "They say he left and ain't been seen fer a day. Left on his motorcycle."

Ammy Spiritor: "Streets a better survivor than I am. He'll be fine. As for us, we may survive if we surrender and you abandon Igneous." yep, she's figured it out now.

Mirius Pojoris: "How ye know about Igneous?" She looked at her in surprise. "And I ain't surrenderin'. I've been through too much war and escaped by luck to be goin' back to some prison. I got an apartment in RhyDin. We can be there for a little while. Rawsha is there. I need to get her, too."

Ammy Spiritor: "You wont go to prison. I'll take all the punishment and say I made you do these things. You'll be able to keep Rawsha and just live peacefully." she had her eyes closed now. Exhausted.

Mirius Pojoris: She put a paw on Ammy's shoulder and pulled her close. "I ain't leavin' ye behind, Ammy. Ye've gone too far be helpin' me. Time I help ye back. I ain't lettin' them catch ye."

Ammy Spiritor: She started to cry. "Dammit. I just want peace. If I can just get you and rawsha out of this without harm I'll turn myself in. I've mad a mess of everything."

Mirius Pojoris: "How ye gonna get peace bein' in prison? Fer all we know they can kill ye!" She sighed and leaned against the wall. "Ammy, I'll tell ye what I told Rawsha. Ye don't have to get into this fight. And yer a fellow Spiritor. If we can get to me apartment, ye make yerself at home and get rest."

Ammy Spiritor: She hung her head. "If I don't get involved now, I'm breaking my oath to my goddess as her angel to protect all lupe females and lupe children." she cried. "I've broken it several times tonight now hurting my own son."

Mirius Pojoris: "Ye can't protect everyone, Ammy...."

Ammy Spiritor: "I can try." she leaned her head back against the wall. Her shoulder hurt like hell. She could feel blood drying on her clothing from the wound by the sharp board and the glass window. "As soon as it is safe we'll get to you're appartment.

Mirius Pojoris: "That's what I want to hear..." She slightly grinned. "And they want ye dead or alive, Ammy. Ye know that means if yer captured alive yer goin' to be in a livin' hell. If yer dead, well, ye can't die now can ye? Just a....livin' hell...."

Ammy Spiritor: She gave a shuddering sigh. Mirius was right. She was a loaa and couldn't die permanently. Street could. Ammy felt cold dread. "I've gotta find Street. He was the closest thing I had to a father."

Iimiidiina: Finding the search fruitless, Iimii and Valla start heading out themselves, their voices combining as they search. "Mom/Ammy?"

Mirius Pojoris: "I'd be more than happy to look fer him with ye. I know we went to this dark place when he and I got away to hide to talk with each other. Maybe he be there..."

Ammy Spiritor: "Dark Hearts well." she said softly. She relaxed some. "Trust my dad to go to the one place few would tread."

Iimiidiina: "Where are you?" Iimii was waving the theoretical white flag here.

Mirius Pojoris: "Well, we can start with there. I'd be more than happy to let him hide with us fer a bit until we can find a safer place. The aprtment I have ain't fancy er anytihng, but there be food and a few places to sleep. Just a calm lil' place.

Ammy Spiritor: "I'll be able to teleport us to your appartment in a few minutes. As long as you have a good memory of Rawsha we'll be there soon."

Mirius Pojoris: "Of course." She smiled. "How could I ferget the daughter I love?"

Iimiidiina: "Where are you?"

Ammy Spiritor: "Good, good." she said tiredly. "You must have been nice before the war."

Mirius Pojoris: "I'm nice as long as other don't be provoking me." She chuckled. MIirus was still trying to gain her energy back, but she was feeling tired as well. Maybe not as tired as Ammy, though.

Iimiidiina: "Mom, please answer me! I'm not mad!"

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy could feel Iimii searching for her. She sent a single one way message to his mind and valla's. ~Don't look for me anymore. Please. It's too dangerous and you'll get marked as an enemy as well. I'll be fine. I'll come home when I can.~

Iimiidiina: Iimii finds the link, and hears the message. ~Mom, where are you?~ He didn't know it wouldn't work.

Mirius Pojoris: She looked over at Ammy and examined her. "When we get to me apartment. Eat and rest. Ye need it severely."

Ammy Spiritor: She laughed weakly. "I bet I look like something out of a refugee camp." she was feeling some of her power coming back. soon, soon she would get them out of here.

Iimiidiina: ~Mom! What are you doing?!~ The boy was panicking.

Ammy Spiritor: "You realize my family is going to come looking for me, Lene included." she looked at Mirius.

Mirius Pojoris: "Oh yeah." She grinned and respodned to her refugee camp statement. Then she rubbed the side of her muzzle knowing well what Ammy meant about other scoming to look for her. "I know. I ain't lookin' to hurt yer daughter, Ammy. As I said I won't be hurtin' yer family as long as they don't do a thing to me. That includes yer runt, Iimiidiina." She chuckled.

Ammy Spiritor: Thank Canis for small favors. She looked around the burnt out basement they hid in. One more piece of her history mocking her.

Mirius Pojoris: She held out a paw to Ammy. "If ye want. Take some energy from me. I got magic, I just don't know how to use it." She grinned to Ammy.

Ammy Spiritor: "I used to do research here when I was part demon." she looked at teh offered paw. "I am almost recovered. Save your strength for Rawsha. When we get there, I am going to be out of comission for a while."

Iimiidiina: ~Little one, we should heed your mother's advice. Trust her. And if she proves truly treacherous, as your stepbrother says, our combined strength can defeat her.~ Iimii didn't want to, but he nods. ~You're right, Valla. You're right. Let's go home.~

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius sighed. "Okay...and this was a research facility?"

Ammy Spiritor: "One of three I had. My main one is the Philosophers Flask, the second in the basement of the hospital. Then this one." slowly stood up readying to work the teleport spell.

Mirius Pojoris: slowly stood up with Ammy and put a paw on her shoulder. "This'll all be over soon. And it ain't like people got to die anyways. We do look fer methods that aren't messy...but we can talk about things later."

Iimiidiina: Iimii mounts the massive dragon. He looks around for a few more moments, in case Ammy chanced to wander on them. He calls out one more time for her, desperately. ~Mom! Where are you?~

Ammy Spiritor: ~Hiding. Stay safe. I'll attack from within their ranks and strike at Igneous if I can. I hope.~ her mental message was stretched then and weak. She shooke her head. "Think Rawsha Mirius."

Iimiidiina: He almost couldn't believe his mental ears. She told him to stay safe. Was she a double agent now? Did he actually convince her to stop this? Adoration comes across the temporary link. ~I knew you were good.~ He managed to eke it out before Valla jumped Between. Stay safe? Oh, he knew just where was safe.

Mirius Pojoris: "Easily done..." Mirius smiled at Ammy. Not a smile of malice or evil, but of actual happiness. She closed her eyes and began t othink of her daughter.

Ammy Spiritor: With a flash of green the two vanished from the basement and appeared in Mirius' appartment. Mirius would have someone waiting on her door step, someone Ammy sent away from teh den before speaking to Vuu.

Luna Felblade: *Luna sat next to the door. Her head is on her knees and she is whimpering softly*

Ammy Spiritor: The spell done, Ammy did what ammy always does when pushed too far. Hello floor.

Mirius Pojoris: She sighed and saw Ammy lying on the floor. She picked ammy up and put her on the couch then headed for the door.

Ammy Spiritor: She was out and in a deep sleep.

Luna Felblade: *Luna stays by Ammy's side*

Mogriil: Mogriil was sitting on a fallen palm tree near the beach, ears slowly canting back and forth listening to the waves lap against the sand. He was hunched over a bit, dressed in a plain white tunic, and very loose white cotton pants. He had a stick in his paw and was idly scraping random lines in the sand. He wore his jade mask.

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie was walking along the lagoon, humming a sweet little tune to herself with her eyes closed. She had a small skip in her walk and from seeing that it may be noticable that she was happy. That befriending smile on her muzzle as usual.

Mogriil: Mogriil heard humming, but he didn't look up. He kept his hunched posture and his yellow eyes looked to be in pain.

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie opened her eyes only for a moment barely spotting Mogriil at first. When her eyes closed, they opened almost immediatly again and she slowed down seeing him there. And by judging his posture and his demeanor. Vixie slowed her pace and approached him. "Hello, Sir!" she greeted in thatsweet and friendly voice of hers. "Are you feeling well?"

Mogriil: Hearing Vixie, he thought about how to answer that question. "No." he said softly.

Vixie Rivergem: "No?" Vixie moved towards his side. She didn't realize right off the bat this was Mogriil just yet. "May I ask what is wrong, Sir?" she asked caringly.

"Just punishment I think." Mog answered quietly sounding unsure of things. "I've done bad things I think." he went back to scratching out more random lines at first but to any not hunched over like him, the lines were looking like Lene's portrait.

Vixie Rivergem: "You think? You sound so unsure." Vixie sat down beside him and looked at him.

Mogriil: What Vixie would see was a young lupe, about 18'ish, wearing a jade mask that looked like a snarling wolf carved out of jade. bright yellow eyes would be behind that mask, as well as a few noticeable burns, not new, but old looking in some areas the mask didn't cover.

Mogriil: "I honestly don't know. I don't remember things and I was punished for what I don't remember. I even hurt someone I cared for, I think."

Vixie Rivergem: She examined him and did notice he looked quite young. Her eyes even took interest of the looks on his mask. "Punished for what you don't remember? Now why would someone do sometihng like that?" Unfortunately, she hasn't been around the Den too much lately.

Mogriil: "Because I broke laws." he said simply

Vixie Rivergem: She sighed. This wasn't getting anywhere. "Well, may I ask what your punishment was? Only if you want to tell me. I'm not forcing you." Vixie slowly moved a paw to rest on his shoulder to help comfort him.

Mogriil: He seemed to flinch at contact. "To be a servant for 20 years. Exiled from a Den I don't remember being in much, and.." he paused a moment or two as a troubling memory that sent chill through his spine hit him. "Neutered."

Vixie Rivergem: At hearing that she looked down at the ground and frowned. "I am so sorry for asking, Sir....I didn't know it would be something like that."

Mogriil: "What's done is done. I am just looking forward from here on out now. This is the time I remember now."

Vixie Rivergem: "Well, if it makes you feel better my family and I are barely ever in the Den. It isn't like it is a necessity to live there." She gave him a small smile.

Mogriil: He stopped his poking of the sand with the stick. "Yes, indeed." his voice was gentle, quiet, and though touched with disomfort, contemplative. He finally looked up to see Vixie for the first time.

Vixie Rivergem: was still giving a small smile to him. "I'm sorry, I should introduce myself. I am Vixie RiverGem."

Mogriil: "Sounds like a delicate name." he said simply.

Vixie Rivergem: "Thank you." She grinned. "You have a very nice mask, Sir. How did you get such an item?"

Mogriil: "I honestly don't know."

Vixie Rivergem: "Oh...well, I guess that can make it even more valuable if you look at it another way." she continued to smile at him. "So, is there anything you like to do, Sir, besides doodling in the sand with a stick?"

Mogriil: "I like to read sometimes."

Mogriil: "Sometimes I talk with my master."

Vixie Rivergem: She nodded and smiled at him, listening to him. Maybe just conversing about other things would help him feel better. "What kind of readings do you enjoy? And you have a master?"

Mogriil: "I enjoy whatever I can get to read. I have no money, and no possessions. Books are rare for me. And yes, my new master. His name, I think it's a he, is Aramus Con Jackuss."

Vixie Rivergem: "Oh, I don't know a Aramus. But if you ever want a book I have a few spares I don't read anymore that I'd be more than happy to let you read. Only if you want, Sir." she offered, still smiling.

Mogriil: "I would like that Vixie." he smiled, scarred lips under that mask are seen.

Vixie Rivergem: noticed the scarred lips, but a smile was still a smile. "And don't worry about money. I won't charge you anything."

Mogriil: "Such kindness." he looked over the waters for a moment or two. "What do you do?"

Vixie Rivergem: "Kindness is what Iwas raised on, Sir." She giggled. "I work with my family in the family jewelry business. We make all sorts of jewelry. And even nice simple things like these." She held out her wrists to him to show him the bracelets she wore.

Mogriil: He looked at the simple design then at his own, scarred hairless wrists. The burns were something he could never remember how he got. "They do look nice."

Vixie Rivergem: "Everything we make is by hand. No magic involved, unless it is very special gems. Like mood stones. And they do work!" vixie smiled and giggled a little bit.

Mogriil: "Magic." he said the word with a bit of softness. He touched his mask for a moment with his clawed fingers. "You must have very loving parents to teach you such a wonderful craft."

Vixie Rivergem: "Mhm. They love me to death. I wouldn't trade them for anything in the world." She paused for a moment before asking, "Don't you have any family?"

Mogriil: "Maybe, maybe not. My name is Mogriil. It means 'mutt'."

Vixie Rivergem: "Oh." Is all she said for a moment. "So, you were the one murdering others?" Vixie was feeling a bit uncomfortable now.

Mogriil: Mog simply looked at his paws lost in thought. "That's what they say." no protest in his voice. "If I didn't then they wouldn't have punished, yes?" he asked confused.

Vixie Rivergem: "Well...I mean I've heard a few commotions around the Den on either side of the story, but... well...you wouldn't kill me would you?" Even Vixie was confused. "I mean if you did you woudl've already done it, right?"

Mogriil: "Why would I want to kill anyone?" he asked softly. "I've known loneliness most my life I think. Why would I on purpose drive others away with death?"

Vixie Rivergem: she sighed an tried to calm herself. She looked to his eyes. "You don't even have any friends?"

Mogriil: He raised up a clawed finger. "Just one. Aramus." he looked back down at the rough portrait of Lene, she was even missing an ear. "I had another..."

Vixie Rivergem: "Oh?" She looked down at the protrait. Vixie couldn't exactly tell who it was. "May I ask who?"

Mogriil: "Her name was Myrlene, I think."

Vixie Rivergem: "Myrlene? Oh, I have met her. She is so sweet. And cute." She giggled.

Mogriil: He dipped his head and started to tear up. "I know...I once loved her..." looking at his paws again. "They....they said I tortured her. Stabbed her many times..." he wrung his paws at the thought of being that savage.

Vixie Rivergem: "Oh no..." She frowned. "And I"m sure you wouldn't hurt someone you love would you?"

Mogriil: "I don't know." he cried. "I don't know anymore." he put his head in his paws.

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie began to feel sorry for him as she saw him breaking down. Very slowly she would extend her arms aroudn him to hug him without a word.

Mogriil: "Why did I do those things?" he asked himself.

Vixie Rivergem: "Maybe it was some kind of mind control or something if you don't remember. I'v heard people can do that." She said softly. Vixie would move herself closer to him to hold him close in a hug. She didn't like to see anyone break down and start crying.

Mogriil: He leaned into that hug. For the first time someone was showing Mog some measure of concern and not scorn and hate. "I... never wanted to hurt her. I loved her. Loved her dearly.... even after I found she was my cousin... by blood."

Vixie Rivergem: "So, you do have family...." She spoke softly and kept him close. A paw would gently rub his back to help comfort him. "Does she still care for you?"

Mogriil: He yipped in pain when she rubbed his back. His clothing hid a body full of burn scars from magic fire. "I do not know is she cares for me anymore. i was told she has mate and pup now. I may still have a father, but I saw such dispair in his eyes when I was sentenced, that maybe he has given up on me."

Vixie Rivergem: She quickly pulled her paw away from his back at hearing the yip. Instead she just wrapped her arms around him gently again, making sure she wouldn't put any pressure on his back so she wouldn't acidently hurt him again. "I can ask her for you next time I see her."

Mogriil: "You would do that for me?" he asked softly. "thank you."

Vixie Rivergem: "Of course and your welcome." She patted his right arm gently. Hopefully, he didn't have any injuries there either. "Mogriil, if you ever want a friend. I'll be glad to be yours."

Mogriil: "You would befriend an exile? A known criminal?" he asked in a soft aw.

Vixie Rivergem: "Well, honestly I am still a bit wary...but I"m sure a guilty person wouldn't be breaking down like you. I try and see past all that." She smiled at him. "But yes I am aesy to befriend. Maybe too easy." Vixie giggled. "Guys don't seem to mind that too much."

Mogriil: Mogriil's attitude seemed to shift a bit hearing that. "Men should be more respectful of you. You are a kind lady and should have your virtue and honor protected." he said quietly. "As to ... a guilty person.... i am leaving that with the rest of the unknown in my past. All I wish for now is to exist and make a new life."

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie couldn't help but smile at that. "Well, thank you, Mogriil. That is sweet of you to say. But sometimes I'm just a plain flirt" She blushed. "If you want help starting a new life I can try and help you if you want...." She thought for a moment. "Maybe I could talk with my parents about trying to help you get back on your feet to start a new life. I can't gauruntee it, but I can ask."

Mogriil: "I... wouldn't be able to accept Vixie. I am bound to serve Aramus for 20 years. It is up to him how I shall live. He has given me some time to myself after... what they did to me." he rubbed his knees. s

Vixie Rivergem: "Oh...well, you can ask him and if it is okay with him then I can ask my parents if you want. And if that doesn't work, well, I'll still be around to be your friend." Vixie smiled to him reassuringly.

Mogriil: "I appreciate that."

Vixie Rivergem: "Would you like a mood stone necklace or bracelete or ring or something?" she offered.

Mogriil: He thought about that for a moment. "I would happily accept a necklace. In return, if master permits, I would offer my services to keep your honor intact Vixie."

Vixie Rivergem: "Oh, you don't have to do anything for me. I'm just being nice." She smiled at him. "That's what friends do is be ince and caring to each other."

Mogriil: He nodded slowly.

Vixie Rivergem: "And I just want to help you get back on your feet any way I can." She slowly released the hug. "So, don't get all acting like you're in debt to me for now."

Mogriil: "Hard to be in debt in when you're a servant." he said quietly. He gently rubbed his arms under the sleeves of his tunic.

Vixie Rivergem: She sighed. "You know what I mean, Mogriil." Then she leaned in to kiss the side of his cheek whether there was a mask or not. "I hope to see you soon, Mogriil." She moved her paws to pat his. "And think happy thoughts. If you say you don't have any, well, you just made a friend. I'm sure that's something to be happy about."

Mogriil: He nodded to her. "May you have a safe night."

Vixie Rivergem: "You, too." gently she patted his shoulder and waved to him. "And have the sweetest of dreams, Mogriil." Vixie would give him one more friendly smile before she got up and walked back home.

Mogriil: Mogriil was again resting on a log, but not hunched over anymore. Someone had sent him pain medication but they didn't give their name. The pain meds had him pain free, and i a light mood.

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie had a few books that were visible in her arms that were crossed over them. She wondered if Mogriil would be around here again since it seemed like he didn't have much of where else to go. She did have a smile on her face as she searched, a happy little skip to her walk.

Vixie Rivergem: In time she saw Mogriil resting on a log and a big smile crossed her muzzle. She hurried over to him. "Hi, Mogriil!" she called out happily to see him.

Mogriil: He looked up and a smile under his jade mask grew. "Hello Vixie."

Vixie Rivergem: slowed down once she came to his side and sat down beside him. "How are you today? Great I hope." she spoke in her always cheerful tone.

Mogriil: "Doing better. Someone gave me something called pain medication and I don't feel so bad now."

Vixie Rivergem: "Great!" She giggled. "I have a few things for you." Vixie smiled at him and handed the books over to him. "I got three books for you. One is a romance, another is an adventure, and the third is a bit funny." she handed the books over to him with a grin.

Mogriil: He took the books looked the covers over then in a odd gesture sniffed the books. He loved the smell of parchment and ink for some reason.

Vixie Rivergem: The books were hard covers and were kept in nearly perfect condition. "Oh, I got something else for you." she grinned. Vixie pulled pulled out silver chained necklace that had a stone hanging from it and she held it out to him. "I got the necklace for you."

Mogriil: He looked at the necklace now. "Looks very nice. What do I owe you?"

Vixie Rivergem: "Nothing silly!" She giggled. " And with this stone. Blue means you're feeling down. Red will be an aggressive type feeling. White would mean a happy feeling. My grandmother said she would teach my mother one day and that one day my mother would teach me." She went into thought a moment in case she forgot anything.

Vixie Rivergem: "Oh, and black would be more of a neutral type feeling. Personally, I think grey would have been better, but I guess it is too close to white in a sense."

Mogriil: "Oh." he nodded and put on the necklace.

Vixie Rivergem: "and a bright pink is when someone is in deep love." She giggled. "Do you like it?"

Mogriil: "I do." the mood stone was white when it touched him.

Vixie Rivergem: She looked at the stone and grinned. "Now I can really tell when you're happy!" Vixie moved closer to his side with a grin. She crossed one leg over. "I really do hope you ejnoy your gifts, Mogriil."

Mogriil: "Really do like them. i just wished I could give you a gift as well.

Vixie Rivergem: "Aw, you don't have to give me a gift. I enjoy being around you and that's enough for me."

Mogriil: "You enjoy being around me?" he thought for a moment. "Maybe I could give you a kiss then and use that as a promise note to do something nice for you?"

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie giggled and blushed. Her eyes looked down to the ground slightly. "Well, you could..."

Mogriil: "Only if you are comfortable with me giving you a kiss."

Vixie Rivergem: "Well..." Vixie was still blushing some. She looked up at him ."You can." Vixie said with a smile.

Mogriil: "Where would you like the kiss?"

Vixie Rivergem: "Can kiss me on the muzzle." She said quietly with a smile.

Mogriil: He leaned over and kissed the side of her muzzle with scarred lips.

Vixie Rivergem: She brought a paw up to his muzzle to direct it towards her lips so she would kiss him, too.

Mogriil: He blinked in surprise.

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie slowly pulled away and continued to smile. Then her head turned away and down some, blushing more.

Mogriil: Mogriil just simply looked like a deer in headlights.

Vixie Rivergem: she finally spoke in a soft tone, "Sorry if I went too far..."

Mogriil: "N..n...n.. no. .. not at alll...

Vixie Rivergem: looked back up at him and into his eyes. "I don't know. It just feels like there's more to you. I don't see some pernicious lupinossai murderer like others do."

Mogriil: "You still worried about me being a murderer?" he asked lightly.

Vixie Rivergem: "Well, not really.... I mean you have great values in you and I just don't see how or why you would be trying to hurt someone."

Mogriil: "Great values?" he asked in surprise. This was all new to him.

Vixie Rivergem: "Mhmm." She moved right next to his side. "You act like a real gentleman, too. Out of most guys I meet most aren't. I'm not saying that I desire everyone to be perfect in that way, though."

Mogriil: "I act like a gentleman." he said to himself softly. "I wonder if that's why Lene liked me so much. Though she had an annoying way of biting my paw when she was younger."

Vixie Rivergem: "Love bites?" She giggled

Mogriil: He blinked. "What? Oh, no...I uhm... uhm..." he looked for the right words. "I was originally her bodyguard slash babysitter. When I told her to do something like go to bed, she'd throw a fit, fling a tiny fire ball at me and then run. When I'd catch her she would bite my paw."

Vixie Rivergem: She giggled. "I never knew she could be so sneaky. I would never bite any of my parents' or babysitters' paws. It never ended good."

Mogriil: "Well, it never ended good for her either. I locked her in the broom closet once in the Red Dragon Inn. She was mad for a long time at me for that one."

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie could not help but laugh some. "Too bad I don't have any siblings to do that, too."

Mogriil: "I didn't have any sibblings."

Vixie Rivergem: "I'm an only child, too. I guess my parents don't want to have a lot of pups running around everywhere." She smiled. "I guess I'm a handful enough."

Mogriil: "Lucky you. I don't remember much of my childhood. Just me, and mom. She was always trying to keep us fed and surviving. Soon, when I could hold a sword, I went to war to support her."

Vixie Rivergem: "Aww..." She went to hug him for comfort. "I'm sorry to hear that, Mogriil. I wish I could help everyone that is less fortunate. I hate to see others having terrible lives and only just getting by troubles in their lives."

Mogriil: He seemed to enjoy the hug. "You seem to be a very nice girl, Vixie."

Vixie Rivergem: "Well, my parents said being nice will get me a long way and manners. So, I just try be the best person I can." She smiled. "Although, it's got me into a couple problems somehow...."

Mogriil: "What problems were those?" he asked. One of his large paws seemed to slip over on its own to take one of her own paws in it.

Vixie Rivergem: She let him take her paw and gently she clenched his. "Well, there was this lycan that was kind of interested me and I guess took advantage of my generosity, so when I invited him into the den he soon got aggressive and killed someone...I still feel that it was my fault..." she sighed.

Mogriil: "Vixie, you can't be responsible for someone elses actions." he said gently.

Vixie Rivergem: "I know and my parents were trying to tell me the same thing. I just...I don't know." She leaned her head onto his shoulder. "I've just really never been around death or anything before."

Mogriil: "It's something no one ever gets used to." he said and gave her an unasked for kiss.

Vixie Rivergem: That caught her by surprise a little bit, but she didn't pull away. She just smiled and returned the kissing. Vixie was starting to really like being around him now. After a few moments of kissing she gently pulled back with a grin. "Thank you." she said softly.

Mogriil: "I..uhm... you're welcome." he seemed to hide a shy smile behind that jade mask.

Vixie Rivergem: giggled some. Her eyes looked at his mask with curiosity, wondering what was behind it. "Do you ever take off your mask?"

Mogriil: "I do, but only when no one is around. I don't want to frighten people."

Vixie Rivergem: "Frighten people? How would you frighten people?"

Mogriil: He went quiet for a moment. "When I joined the wars, a mage hit me with a big ball of mage fire. Most of my body has been burnt and I have little fur at all under my clothing and behind this mask. Instead I have sensitive burn scars all over. My face is pretty bad and I have seen that it can make a lot of people uneasy to look at."

Vixie Rivergem: "Oh..." She frowned." so that explains why you yipped when I touched your back...can it not be healed?"

Mogriil: "It's been tried Vixie. My scars seem to hurt more when magic is used on them."

Vixie Rivergem: "What about...non magical ways?"

Mogriil: He shrugged. "Never thought of them. But if you really want to see what's behind the mask, I could show you."

Vixie Rivergem: "Only if you're comfortable. I'm willing to see, but if it is uncomfortable with you I don't want you to do it then."

Mogriil: He nodded slowly. Mogriil slowly undid the straps to his mask and took it off. The muzzle and facer severely scarred with old burn scars. Only his ears, part of his lower jaw, neck and back of his head had fur on it.

Vixie Rivergem: She frowned at the sight of the scarring. "I wish there was something I could to to help your scars at least not hurt." Vixie brought up a paw to caress the part of his lower jaw that wasn't scarred.

Mogriil: "They seem to be fine as long as I am not around a lot of magic."

Vixie Rivergem: "Well, I'm barely anything in magic. I am trying to get better with water, but it is a bit hard to do."

Mogriil: He just nodded and put the mask back on. He was so used to wearing it he felt naked without it. "I don't know anything about magic."

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie thought for a moment. "Does water hurt your scars?"

Mogriil: "Not one bit." he said simply.

Vixie Rivergem: she smiled at him. "Maybe we should go swimming together sometime."

Mogriil: Mog seemed to get overly self conscious about that offer.

Vixie Rivergem: "Well, would you?" She asked again. Vixie wasn't meaning to be pushy with questioning him, just curious.

Vixie Rivergem: "or are you afraid of swimming?"

Mogriil: "No. Not afraid of swimming...but..." he just decided to show her instead. He parted the white tunic showing more nasty scars all over.

Vixie Rivergem: examined his body and put a paw over her muzzle in shock ."Oh, Mogriil...." Vixie felt so bad for him now. She went to gently hug him. "I'm so sorry...."

Mogriil: "I can swim, just as long as no one else is around. You don't seem too offended by the scars." he said with a slight smile.

Vixie Rivergem: "Why would I be offended? I just wish I could make them go away to help you feel better. But if you still would like to swim we can make sure no one else is around like you said. I wouldn't want you to get uncomfortable."

Mogriil: He nodded. "For now, I can't get wet. Uhm... stitches down below."

Vixie Rivergem: She gently patted his paws. "Of course. It is not like a necessity. It's just the riivii in me loves water so much..." she giggled.

Mogriil: "Oh? Part riivii? That explains why your so beautiful." he smiled.

Vixie Rivergem: She blushed and giggled. "Thank you, Mogriil. I have both riivii and erthrii in me. I got the best of both sides it looks like."

Vixie Rivergem: "Which I guess makes me a mutt, too." She grinned at him.

Mogriil: "I'm a mutt due to not knowing my father until i came here and learned it was Street, I think."

Vixie Rivergem: "Well, I have to say the name fits you in a good way."

Mogriil: "You think so?"

Vixie Rivergem: "Mhm." Vixie smiled at him. "It just matches you well. I like it, personally."

Mogriil: he just chuckled at that.

Vixie Rivergem: "Good to hear you laughing, too." She smirked. "Oh! If you ever want any more books to read let me know. I have plenty lying around in my room."

Mogriil: "I'll remember that."

Vixie Rivergem: "Good!" she giggled and looked into his eyes, getting lost into them while smiling.

Mogriil: He liked looking into her eyes as well.

Vixie Rivergem: "Scars or no scars. I still like you, Mogriil." She smiled at him and moved in to kiss him again.

Mogriil: He did like wise. Mog didn't know why, but he seemed to like Vixie.

Vixie Rivergem: As she kissed him both of her paws held his paws gently to clench them.

Mogriil: He returned her kiss gently and seemed to let his tongue linger on her lips.

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie grinned at him and very slowly pulled away and let out a sigh. "I really hate to leave this moment. I'm loving it so much."

Mogriil: He just smiled at her. "I am usually here when not serving Aramus. I would love your company again sometime Vixie."

Vixie Rivergem: "As I would yours. I will try and come back here when I can." She would kiss him one more time and hug him. Then slowly stand up. "I hope you really do enjoy your gifts while I am away. And may you have the sweetest of dreams." Vixie gave him a smile.

Mogriil: He nodded. "Fair the well, fair lady of the waters." he smiled.

Vixie Rivergem: She giggled and waved to him, then walked home.

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy walked into the Glen looking about. She was wearing a coat and jeans and wondering where Mirius had disappeared to? She walked deeper into the Glen. A lot of things going through her mind. She was on an edge right now and was deciding which way to fall. emerald eyes were showing today. Ammy looked along the trails and plains looking for Mirius. Ammy managed to spot Mirius and Garnet and moved for them. "Hey ladies." she said softly plunking down by Mirius and Garnet.

Mirius Pojoris: "Well, hello, Ammy." She looked over and grinned at her. "Thank ye again fer helpin' me yesterday....though now I gotta get new equipment and new clothin' and armor and all that fun stuff...."

Ammy Spiritor: "Don't worry about it, Mirius. Let me know what you want and I'll pay for it." she said with a bit tiredness in her voice. "Hey Garnet. How are things going?"

Garnet Prismpaw: -she would wave to Ammy as she came up and sat down- "doing alright, but i am going to have to go rest.." -she pats Mirius on the shoulder and grins- "take care of yerself" -she moved over to the lion and lays a paw on his side..and they start trhough the forest-"

Ammy Spiritor: "Take it easy Garnet."

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius just sat there with a sigh. "Ye know about Fleet, right Ammy?"

Ammy Spiritor: Her ears flattened a bit when Mirius mentioned Fleet. Yeah, she'd heard. That was part of why she was mad last night. Taking a breath she looked at the grass. "Yeah. Heard he's a ten year old in the Inn right now. Doesn't know anyone. Doesn't remember me or anything."

Mirius Pojoris: "Ye, I saw him roamin' around in the open the other night..." She reached over to pat Ammy's shoulder with a paw. "I hate them Wolves, but y'know I just can't take advantage of a kid like that"

Ammy Spiritor: She sighed heavily and looked up at Mirius, her emerald eyes fading to almost a lost looking gold. "I... feel like I've lost him mirius."

Mirius Pojoris: "Now why do ye feel that?"

Ammy Spiritor: "haven't seen him in weeks, and the first time I do, he's a kid." she said frustrated.

Mirius Pojoris: "Well, at least ye get to see him. Crap just kinda happens to put it harshly."

Ammy Spiritor: "Seeing him isnt' enough Mirius. He's my husband. He's been through so much, and I've supported him. Now, now he doesn't even remember me. I mean...." she sounded frustated, worn, and about to cry. "where is Fleet when I need comfort and support?"

Mirius Pojoris: She sighed and reached her arms over to hug Ammy. Mirius wasn't exactly the best person to do all the emotional stuff, but she didn't like seeing Ammy so upset. Someone who has saved her tail on several occasions and she hasn't exactly had anything to repay her back, besides not killing her or her family. Okay, except Iimiidiina.

Ammy Spiritor: She leaned into Mirius' arms and sobbed quietly. "Mates are supposed to be together. Ever since Lene left, we've hardly been together. Oh Fen, you've been around me more than he has."

Mirius Pojoris: "Ain't that the truth." Mirius could say some more bad things about those relating to Den Wolf, but she decided not to. Instead, she just held Ammy. "And it ain't like I've had a choice." She grinned.

Ammy Spiritor: "I'm sorry if I keep throwing my neck out for you." she muttered and flinched some. That was a bit harsh. "Sorry Mirius. Just hold me."

Mirius Pojoris: "Don't worry about it, Ammy..." At least Mirius was in her jean jacket and pants to make things more comfortable, unlike her military uniform that she use to have. "Y'know ye've done a lot fer me and I barely anythin' fer ye." She kept her arms wrapped around Ammy and rested her head on top of hers.

Ammy Spiritor: She closed her eyes and sank into the comfort of someone holding her. "All ye have to do is just love me..."

Mirius Pojoris: "Y'know yer askin' a trained killer to love, right?" Mirius chuckled softly and rubbed Ammy's back with a paw.

Ammy Spiritor: "Ye love Rawsha. Ye seen me fight. I love Luna. I'm sure ye can find some space to love a hopeless girl."

Mirius Pojoris: Rolledher eyes and sighed. "Yer killin' me, Ammy...." Mirius made a short but soft laugh and kept holding on to Ammy.

twilight serenade: -out somewhere in the forest, an infant was crying, in a clearing of trees, Eranar had been alone for far to long and was awake again-

Ammy Spiritor: "Well at least it's a soft, cushy, killing." she said softly. Ammy looked up to Mirius and gave her a brushing kiss on the muzzle.

Mirius Pojoris: She grinned. At feeling her muzzle touching hers, she lookd at her with a curious look. And she also heard some crying somewhere in the forest and looked back, then looked at Ammy again. "Ye hear that?"

Kozilek: Kozilek would call his minions back, and it was at that point that they, and he, realized they were missing somebody. Once they regrouped, Kozilek would send all of his minions out to search for her while he reconstructs a new lair. More trees would die as he does this, this time making their location not as obvious. He would put out an illusion of invisibility, making it seem as though that part of the forest was alive and well. Just normal forest.

Ammy Spiritor: A twitch of her ears a moment. She did hear the crying. "Yeah. What about it?"

Mokk-ing Bird: ::::she touched bottom with her feet, waded to shore and staggered onto the beach a few hundred yards from the lupes:::

Mirius Pojoris: "Well...should we check it out?" Then she blinked a few times seeing a lady walking out of the water. This night was getting weird....

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy spotted the wet lady coming out of the lake. She repressed a sigh. "Hold me again later?"

Mokk-ing Bird: :::she fell down with a groan and lay on the shore, breathing heavily muttering waht sounded like a prayer::: oh god, please let me be safe.....

Mirius Pojoris: "That should be an obvious yes. Ye saved me tail time after time." She grinned at Ammy and patted her back.

Ammy Spiritor: "Okay. Which do you want. Mysterious crying or soggy lake lady?"

Kozilek: The minions chatter and babble would be in the distance as they searched for the escaped captive.

Mirius Pojoris: "Uhh...." She scratched her head in thought. "I guess I'll go to the cryin' since I ain't just hearin' it."

Mokk-ing Bird: :::hearing voices she crawled towards them calling out::: please help, need to get safe, monster chasing me, has lots of evil powers and minions

Ammy Spiritor: "okay. I'll check the lady and find you once I sort her out." she gave Mirius a small smile. Small, but warming. She headed off to Mimi and heard the babbling. "Whoa, whoa. Yer safe ma'am." she said. Odd how her speaking has shifted some.

Kozilek: The minions start to come closer. To both baby and escapee.

Mirius Pojoris: "Alright." Mirius grinned to Ammy as she got up. She began to go towards the crying noise to find out what was making it.

twilight serenade: -Eranar, was at one point wrapped in black blankets but had managed to pretty-much wriggle out of them for the most part..he looked like a dragon..well a green half-dragon with black feathered wings, he was to young to be alone, he was laying near an area were there appears to have been a struggle in the last day-

Mokk-ing Bird: no, i'm not safe until i'm someplace wehre evil magic can't get me! he's terrible...

Ammy Spiritor: "Okay, okay." she thought a moment. Jeeze, she's been helping the endangered a lot lately. "Here." she put a small copper coin in Mimi's had. It was etched with lupes runes. "This will take you right my place. It's shielded and warded against everything plus gods to boot."

Mirius Pojoris: Soon enough she came upon this young one that was crying and she walked towards it slowly. "Hey, there. Where be yer parents?"

Mokk-ing Bird: :::she took the coin up, kissed the lupe's cheek and activated the etched runes, vanishing to the safety of Ammy's home:::

twilight serenade: -there were bootmarks and then someone seemed to have been drug off into the forest and an odd perhaps magical darkness could be seen where the dragmarks ended....the infant laid crying and not in the best way, he was weak and hadnt been cared for in at least a day-

Kozilek: A Predator shoots out of the trees, pouncing on Mirius!

Ammy Spiritor: She blinked. Was she just kissed by a strange woman? She shrugged for a moment and went to find Mirius.

twilight serenade: -the baby screams out-

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius ended up on her back from the bounce with swears coming out of her muzzle loudly. She would try to grab it's head to push it back so it's teeth wouldn't try trearing her throat out or anything.

Kozilek: The Predator is shoved back, but it pounces right back at his prey, snarling and snapping at her. It would seem he thought the baby was food.

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius growled. And the worst part is she didn't even have any weapons on her. Her eyes looked to the side quickly and with one arm trying to defend herself from the bites, and it would be hurt, the other arm picked up a nearby hand-sized rock lying on the ground and she tried to beat it i nthe fac.e

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy heard the screaming and the sound of skirmish. Ripping a tear in reality, she pulled from her flat dimmension her .45 auto with ap and incindiary rounds and lept over some bushes and fired two shots aimed at the predator hoping to hit something vital.

Kozilek: The Predator yelps and stumbles back, whimpering. It rubs its face with a paw. Seems she got it right in one of its many eyes. Both shots would hit their mark as the Eldrazi Predator of Kozilek lay dead. It wouldn't burn, but it was dead.

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy stalked forward and put two more shots into it just to be sure. Rule #2: Double Tap.

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius crawled onto her feet with grunt. Her attention focused back on the infant and went to her to see if she was okay.

twilight serenade: -the infants emerald green eyes where closed as he cried,-

Ammy Spiritor: "Ye okay Mirius?"

Kozilek: The Predator jerks about as its shot.

Ammy Spiritor: Puts pistol in the waist band of jeans and goes about examining the beasty.

twilight serenade: -when he felt the lupe get close he would open his eyes and look around..he was wishing it would have been his mother coming back for him but he would watch this lupe-

Kozilek: It was quite the horrifying monstrosity. Black carapace covered its entire body, pockmarked by hundreds of eyes. Black onyx projections would shoot from its body, although it did appear wolfish in form.

Mirius Pojoris: She went to pick up the infant slowly and gently. "Ye, I'm okay. We got a lil' child here it seems."

Kozilek: The claws, as well, would be black onyx.

Ammy Spiritor: "A child? Fen, where do these kids keep coming from?" she asked in surprise. Rift opens again and she pullled out her lightsaber and flicked it on with a snap hiss. "Let's see how you work ugly."

twilight serenade: -those emerald green eyes blink, he had tears dried on his cheeks and he looked around now that he was picked up and looked toward the last place he had seen his mother...but she wasnt were she had been, all that was there was drag marks into that strange mystical darkness that might have blinded into the regular darkness of the forest but there was a tree standing there that didnt cast the right light because of the magical darkness it made the area look strange-

Mirius Pojoris: "Can ye speak, kid?" Mirius asked the infant.

Kozilek: Ugly was dead. So, it just lies there.

Ammy Spiritor: With the deftness of a Jedi Knight, she quickly disected the beasty and put the sectioned remains into the rift for later examination.

Kozilek: Smart. The Artisan won't be able to come back and revive it now that it's elsewhere.

twilight serenade: -he would coo..but then those emearld eyes would watch Mirius and as he looked at her she would feel like she knew his name was Eranar...some sort of suggestion spell-

Kozilek: A loud angry shout would be heard that would shake the forest at it's very roots.

Mirius Pojoris: She held the child and walked over to Ammy. "What should we do with him?" At hearing that shout she got a bit panicky. That didn't sound good at all.

twilight serenade: -Eranar would babble out and those emerald eyes would look around the area from Mirius' arms, he would look over toward the area he last saw his mama- "ma ma"

Mirius Pojoris: "Ye lookin' fer yer mama?"

twilight serenade: -he would look up at her and give a smile as he heard her say mama..his way of saying yes..he had last seen her where the boot prints of two forms could be seen in the soft dirt..one larger and heavier than the other...thats where he was looking...perhaps expecting her to be there still-

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius was being cautious of what was out there still, but looked in the direction of where the infant looked. "She go that away er somethin'?"

twilight serenade: "ma ma" -he whimpered slightly and looked back to her from where he had been looking-

Kozilek: Kozilek shouts again, this time even louder. A small earthquake would ensue in his fury.

Mirius Pojoris: She would keep herself stable from the small earthquake, trying to hold the child at the same time. "Not good...not good...." she already had a feeling of what was coming

Ammy Spiritor: Finally done stowing the chunks an sealing the rift, Ammy moved quickly to Mirius.

Kozilek: The terrible visage of Kozilek would appear before them. But the real Kozilek couldn't teleport. This had to be an illusion. But why did it look so real?

Mirius Pojoris: She saw the image and slowly backed away with the child in her arms. "Get away from us..." she growled.

Kozilek: "You have killed one of my Predators, dog." He pointed a clawed finger at Ammy.

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy saw Kozilek. "Well if it isn't ol' noodle nose. I told you yer arse was mine." she stepped in front of Mirius and the child. .45 pistol was in one paw now as was the lightsaber the hissed panting the darkness in an aquamarine hue.

Kozilek: He laughes. "You think you stand a chance against me? I could turn you into a slovenly fool with a click of my fingers. But as it turns out, that is just not as much FUN as whittling you down to your core."

Ammy Spiritor: "Fancy talk from a mutant elephant." she grinned showing all teeth.

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius didn't like being the one to hide behind someone else for safety, but she was out of her league here and with a child in her arms. She heald Eranar closely to keep him safe.

Ammy Spiritor: "Mirius, how about you and the kid start running for home." she said not taking her eyes, which had flashed green now off of the creature.

twilight serenade: -the infant started to get fussy and started to cry again, moving that dragon tail back and forth some, but he curled up to Mirius tiredly at the same time-

Kozilek: "An elephant, you say?" Kozilek would disappear and reappear at Ammy's side as one of her own. "Di'i yom haama yom oos aagoom u'unut taat?"

Mirius Pojoris: "I don't know if runnin' be a good idea, Ammy....if there be one of them ugly beasts out there. More than likely there be more of 'em...They neraly torn me to pieces last time."

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy tossed Mirius her .45, still watching the lupinossai imposter. "So you adapt well. Not impressed." The lightsaber on the other paw was held with ease and she moved in time with it. "Elephant, snake, vacuum cleaner from hell. You're all the same. Annoying bastards that need to go find new playtoys.

Mirius Pojoris: She took the pistol in one paw and turned around. The other arm held the child as she started to run for the beach house that had wards around it. There was no way she was going to leave the kid out here alone.

Kozilek: The Lupinossai fades into Kozilek's image again with a chuckle. Oh, this was fun. "You are proud, bitch. I like that. Makes the sport all the more intriguing." He chuckles and backs away.

Ammy Spiritor: "Oh, so you like shifting a lot too?" she said toyingly. Soon she was a mirror image of Kozilek except for the lightsaber being held.

Kozilek: The illusion Kozilek tilts his...eye... at his illusory counterpart.

Ammy Spiritor: Meanwhile, the fake Kozilek is getting probed by high level psionics as that is Ammy affinity of mastery. She was one not to be trifled with.

Kozilek: You think the real Kozilek is a fool? His tracks would be very well concealed. "And powerful. My dear, we shouldn't be fighting."

Ammy Spiritor: "I'm sorry, but I don't date things with tentacles." she shifted back to her normal lupe form and started backing away from the crature for the beachhouse.

Kozilek: The illusion would disappear and reappear right behind her. "Where do you think you're going?" It would feel real.

Mirius Pojoris: She continued running and wasn't slowing down since she was deep in the forest. Mirius kept that .45 pistol in her right paw and wasn't letting her guard down.

Ammy Spiritor: A quick spin and the aqua hued lightsaber blade would his right for the things mid section. Ammy was on high guard. "I thought I would go home and freshen up a bit." she said snidly.

Kozilek: Kozilek chuckles, then explodes. The vapors recreate into a hundred Kozilek's completely surrounding her in a tight circle. They speak in unison. "No no no. I think you should stay here."

Ammy Spiritor: "How quaint." she stood at attention and let a psionic blast ripple out from her in a ring intent on scrambling illusions and mind powers around her for 30 ft in all directions.

Kozilek: The illusions disappear, but one remains. Was this the real Kozilek? About to find out, because it swooshed right at her with supernatural speed.

Ammy Spiritor: A tap of Force power and she darted back just as quickly, while setting into motion a deconstruction array in her mind to use at will with any part of her body. Lightsaber whirled in humming death as a shield in front of her.

Kozilek: Kozilek steps to the side, then his tentacles shoot forward to pummel Ammy from all sides.

Ammy Spiritor: She hoped mirius and the kid were alright. Hopefully they'd find the kinds parents. Hold that thought. A twirl of lightsaber to lop off a few tentacles she hoped while taking a few hits as well. She was holding that array for now in her mind.

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius slowed down and began to take her breath, panting. "Ye okay, kid?" She said inbetween her painting as she asked the child

Kozilek: For every tentacle cut off, another would take it's place. Fen knows, Kozilek had hundreds to spare... assuming this was the real Kozilek.

twilight serenade: -Eranar blinks up at her, he was fine but tired and needed to be cared for..he closed his eyes sleepily and curled up some-

Ammy Spiritor: Great. Hydra effect. She switched tactics, taking more blows. She was going to be sore in the morning and went for a direct approach. She charged for the central mass of the thing Lightsaber out like a lance. If she got close, she'd spear the creature then hit it with the deconstruct array to blow into it's core essence.

Mirius Pojoris: She saw the beach house in the distance and not too far away. Slowly she began to walk toward it feeling better that they were close to safety.

Kozilek: Kozilek would disappear... and in his place be the whole pack of nine Predators, which all pounce on her simultaneously from different directions. Kozilek only made her see what she wanted to see.

Ammy Spiritor: Sneaky, sneaky. Ammy rolled hoping a few preds would collide with each other, any she rolled into would be tested for durability with a lightsaber.

Ammy Spiritor: By now her sweater and jeans would be shredded as well a lot of bruises and a some bleeding cuts.

Kozilek: They would sail straight over her... and then the real Kozilek, the truly real one, would slam one of his larger tentacles down on her weapon arm, hard, as she came to in front of him.

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius would walk past the wards of safety and closer to the beach house. "Well, were safe now, kkid..." She nuzzled his head gently as she walked to the beach house slowly knowing they were completely safe now.

Ammy Spiritor: Well now, that sucked. Crunch went arm and a yip of pain that she decided to give back to him by doing a quick cast of the deconstruct array she'd just used on his arm. Tooth, for tooth, eye for eye, she was hoping to break down most of his arm.

twilight serenade: -he whimpers softly but seemed to settle some with the nuzzling he would..look around as they went-

Mirius Pojoris: She went to the front door and walked into the beach house. Mirius set the kid on the bed of a empty bedroom. Left for the kitchen, then brought back some slices of meat, which she kind of guess the child would eat since he was kind of dragon

Kozilek: He laughes as the tentacle disintegrates into nothing. What was a tentacle to him? It'll grow back. He reaches down and tugs her hair up, lifting Ammy to his single great eye. The other hand would wrap around her neck. "I should kill you right now. You have caused me enough grief as it is."

twilight serenade: -when she offered the meat to him he took while but the sharp teeth he was starting to form made easy work of the meat after a while..he licked his lips after the first few bites he was used to milk but the meat was appriciated and eatin-

Ammy Spiritor: Grunts being lifted by the hair and growls being grabbed by the neck. She spat in his face, and grinned a bit crazed. Everysingle array and spell came to her mind. She hated doing this so soon after recovery, but, she whispered two words. "Yasmiir Blast." Every single spell and array fired off in a nuclear explosion of power, magic, Forc, and blinding holy light that would make a 100 ft crater.

Kozilek: Kozilek screeches like a Ringwraith, and he would drop Ammy as he and the Predators fled. They managed to escape the blast, but only just.

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy hit the crater bottom and collapsed to her knees laughing and holding her ruined arm in pain. "Mess with a bitch, ye deal with the pms."

Mirius Pojoris: "Kid, I hate to leave ye, but yer safe here. I need to go check on me dear friend, okay?" She rubbed the childs head.

Mirius Pojoris: "I will be comin' back as soon as I can, though."

twilight serenade: -he curled up some after eating and nuzzled her hand softly but he would close his eyes to nap soon-

Kozilek: Kozilek's screams could be heard all through the night. A spawn will be ingested tonight, for sure, to usher along the regrowth of a major tentacle.

Ammy Spiritor: She looked about the crater in pain. Well, her lightsaber was toast. Dust particles by now. Gonna have to build a new one. She tried to stand and managed to grit through the pain of bruised and abused knees. Man what a night. "What happend to me not being a weapon anymore?" she asked the heaves in accusation.

Kozilek: Once the Eldrazi is recovered, there will be vengeance, to be sure. And he already knew a weak spot.

Mirius Pojoris: She patted the infant's head gently and rushed out of the beach house, closing the door before she left. Once all that was done, she had the pistol in hand and rushed back into the glen for Ammy.

Kozilek: Oh, what lovely sport this is!

Kozilek: ~Oh, Miriusss.~

Ammy Spiritor: She stumbled up and out of the crater and away from the forest and into the glens clearing. She didn't want to look at her lower right arm. It flopped everywhere, bones pulverized and muscles ripped as well as bleeding. With a sigh she moved for the lake to deal with her wounds.

Kozilek: The voices were back.

Mirius Pojoris: "Ammy!" She called out as she ran through the Glen. Mirius growled at hearing the voices, but tried to ignore them.

Ammy Spiritor: "Over hear." she gave a pained rasp of a shout to her. She had reached the water and was laving her wounds turning the area around her red. She was pretty beat up, but this was par for her days of late. The arm, the arm was going to be a problem.

Kozilek: ~My dear dear Miriusss. Why would you attack me? I am your friend.~

Mirius Pojoris: "Get out of my head..." she growled. But when she heard Ammy's voice she changed direction and headed for her. Still with pistol in hand

Kozilek: ~I am your friend, Miriusss. I wouldn't hurt you.~ A screech would ensue just as he said that.

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius stumbled and shouted in pain. One paw was holding her head while the other the gun. She got closer to the lake and saw Ammy at the water. She headed straight for her.

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy tried Force Healing on her arm and winced more. She was weak again in magic after that blast. The healing managed to stop the bleeding, but the arm was useless now. She ran through her mind of what could be done. She couldn't go to the Den for healing. She was on her own in that department. Her friend was just a Vet. She could use alchemy, some metal, and components... that was geting close to taboo.

Kozilek: ~Why would you attack me, Miriusss?~ The question would repeat, gaining in intensity, as would the screeching.

Ammy Spiritor: A glance up at Mirius when she heard the lupe near. "Ye okay?" she panted.

Mirius Pojoris: "Because ye won't leave me alone!" She screamed, seeming as if she is screaming at nothing. Once she got close to Ammy while still holding her head. "Ammy, what the hell happened to ye!?" Then a shake of her head and she would go to grab Ammy's arm that isn't destroyed. "Nevermind! Just come on. We need t oget to the beach house before I go insane!"

Ammy Spiritor: Lovely. She didn't budge but put her paw to Mirius' forehead, closed her eyes and summoned what was left to search through Mirius' mind looking for the link to her.

Kozilek: ~Mirius, please don't leave. I love you. I need you.~ But over the pleadings would come one command. ~KILL HER.~ The command would repeat over and over again with all the authority of an Alpha.

Mirius Pojoris: "No! No! I ain't killin' her!" Mirius fell to her knees struggling to fight the voices in her head. It was becoming unbearable

Kozilek: There would be a link, but not the type of link telepaths share. This was a seed planted when Mirius saw Kozilek's coming to this plane. He was just as much a part of her as he was to his minions, and he is indeed trying to drive her crazy.

Ammy Spiritor: She was still hunting for the link to Kozilek that was allowing the voices in. Spotting the seed she grinned, remembering a few things her demon year. Quickly she set around the seed a binding sphere of holy light as well as a void thread that would suck in all of his communication like a leach aimed at draining him if he tried contacting her. The intent? cut all communications Kozilek had and make him annoyed and suffer for trying again.

Kozilek: That would do the trick. But Kozilek was clever. He'll find a way around. But for now, maybe for quite some time, the voices would be silent. In the forest, Kozilek just chuckles. He has already come to respect Ammy and her power, and he was truly enjoying their little game.

Ammy Spiritor: She dropped her paw from Mirius' head panting harder and harder. Lupis, she was in pain all over now. She reached her limit and went past it. Magic burn was going to be hell in the morning.

Mirius Pojoris: She panted and sat there on her knees for a moment ofr two and looked at Ammy. "Thnak ye again..." she slightly smiled. "Can we get home now?"

Kozilek: Kozilek's image would wait for them in front of the wards. A white flag would be in hand, showing he only sought to speak, eye to eyes, to Ammy.

Ammy Spiritor: "y..e..a...h..." she said slow with pain and exhaustion. Her voice sounded a little funny too like she wasn't running on all cylinders.

Mirius Pojoris: She gently wrapped an arm around Ammy's side and slowly stood up. "Let's go home, Ammy..."

Ammy Spiritor: "Ow, ow, ow." she whimpered holding her right arm tight to her body. She'd move stiffy along with Mirius.

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius moved very slowly with Ammy. "I know it hurts. I've been there, but we gotta get ye home and healed. And take care of that arm...."

Kozilek: Kozilek's image would stand in their way, but again, he possessed a white flag.

Ammy Spiritor: "I think..the arms....lost cause." she about passed out saying that.

Mirius Pojoris: "Yer in a world full of a bunch of stupid magic. Don't tell me that crap." She said harshly, but it was true. "Bound to be some mage er somethin' somewhere that can heal ye. An dsave yer breath. I don't want ye goin' out on me here."

Ammy Spiritor: She just nodded. She spotted the creature. "Shit."

Kozilek: He waves the white flag over his head. "I come in peaccce."

Mirius Pojoris: "Ye, yer about to become pieces ifye don't get the hell out of me way." She aimed the pistol at him with her free paw.

Kozilek: "You will attack me under the banner of truccce? You may kill me if I attack. But I desire only wordsss, Miriusss."

Mirius Pojoris: "Say yer words now. We ain't got time. Ammy be needin' rest now."

Ammy Spiritor: She panted more. "Can...ye just send... a memo to us.." even this far gone she was sarcastic.

Kozilek: "So I sssee." He casts his eye at Ammy. "Bitch, for you are a female dog and I know not your name, you are making for lovely sport. I have not had a fight such as ourssssince my people's imprisonment on Zendikar. For that, you have my deepessst ressspect. However, you have attacked me. You killed one of my Predatorsss. They are not easssy to replace. Not to mention you cut off one of my primary tentaclesss."

Ammy Spiritor: "And?" she gritted out. "Want me to kiss your boo boo's?" more pants. "Maybe a scooby doo bandaid?" snarks in spades.

Mirius Pojoris: She rolled her eyes and chuckled at Ammy's jokes

Kozilek: "Here are my termsss. I will leave you alone until sssuch time that your arm healsss and Miriusss recoversss. But in exchange, I want you to bring the remains of my Predator back. You will leave within the forest, my minionsss will find it and take care of it from there. In short, a temporary ceassse fire. When we are ready, we'll meet again for another game."

Ammy Spiritor: "Would you like him giftwrapped?" her vision was swimming and blackness touching the edges.

Mirius Pojoris: "Yeah, Ammy. Now I see what ye mean by we're alike..."

Kozilek: This was strange. But he was flying a white flag. He had to be honest. "Just leave the piecesss where you killed him. Do we have an accord?" He doesn't offer his hand because... well. Ammy's condition should be obvious.

Ammy Spiritor: "The terms.... I agree to..."

Mirius Pojoris: "I'll bring the pieces. Ammy's gonna need her rest."

"Wonderful! If you desire, I can even send a Broodwarden over to nurse your injuriesss. Miriusss can vouch for their abilitiesss, can't you, Mirius?"

Ammy Spiritor: "I think not." and with that, ammy popped her last reserve and teleported her and mirius inside the house to safety.

Mirius Pojoris: She glared at Kozilek and growed. "Ye, but I ain't wantin' her to be touched by you...." she finished her sentence and then poofed with Ammy.

Kozilek: He chuckles. It worked. Now, to use this cease fire to his advantage.

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy would be out as soon as the were inside, but they had a few things in motion as well during this cease fire. tit for tat.

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius would have gotten Ammy to a bed for her to rest, meanwhile she needed to check on the child

twilight serenade: -the infant slept on, curled up on the bed where Mirius had sat him, he could do with a bath and clean clothes but it could wait for now-

Mirius Pojoris: She moved to the other bedroom and say the little half-dragon sleeping. Mirius went over and scooped him up in her arms gently to carry him.

twilight serenade: -he continued to sleep, giving only a soft whimper but would lean into her slightly-

Mirius Pojoris: And at least the child was safe. Mirius just sighed and walked around the house with him in her arms, craddling him. She's going to have to help find this child's parents

twilight serenade: -he whines softly in his sleep and a tiny clawed thumb would find his snout..he would continue to sleep, the thumb in his mouth-

Mirius Pojoris: looked down at the child wondering what he was dreaming of. Sometimes she wishes her childhood was a nice one instead of just being crappy. Maybe this child wouldn't suffer the same fate, but who knows.

twilight serenade: -around his neck there is a string of leather with a saphire hanging from it the necklace is a bit big for him but the saphire is so pure at times the light hits it and it looks like the ocean is moving in the stone-

Mirius Pojoris: She looked at the necklace and brought her fingers up to it, holding it and inspecting it closely. She watched the sapphire as it was beautiful. "Wonder where ye got that..." she said quietly to herself

twilight serenade: -hanging next to it is a small circular disc smaller than the saphire it was silver and had the initials F.A. and E.A and S.A...pressed into the silver on the front and on the back of it was the only flaw of the peice..it had the name Fierna Lightmourner scratched out and scratched over it was the name Fierna Alexandros-

Mirius Pojoris: She looked at the silver circular disc on it, reading what it said. Mirius was tryin'g to figure out if this was a tag with his name on it or an owner of his. Then again, he didn't look like a Fierna Alexandros

twilight serenade: -the initials on the front looked like they had been inscribed on it with fine tools and a loving hand perhaps...and it must have been three different sets of initials-

twilight serenade: -he murmurs in his sleep- "ma ma" -and- "se to" -as he turns some cuddling up to Mirius, his thumb still in his mouth as he kept dreaming..was it by chance that he was babbling these phrases...perhaps he was dreaming of his mother and brother-

Mirius Pojoris: She sat there in thought and sighed. "Shhh." Mirius said quickly and rubbed his head and back gently.

twilight serenade: -he'd quieten down some and those black feathered wings would flex some around him as he snuggled up to her...boy was he going to be a handful when he got old enough-

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius yawned and went into the bedroom where Ammy was sleeping. She lied down on the bed slowly while holding the child. She couldn't just let the little thing sleep on his own.

twilight serenade: -he would cuddle up there to her and exhausted he would sleep through the night, with her and Ammy to keep him warm.-

Ammy sat on the couch in the comfy living room of the beach house. A beach house that was once locked up and silent now held life within its walls again. Life that may or may not be as happy as when it was first bought. The house was bought by Fleet during the days she was struggling to breath while being in pain from lung cancer. A cancer that forced her to seek help from a demon lich that summarily had her exiled from the Den. Once she was healed and healthy, she threw off the contract with the demon lich and was able to take herself and her family back to the Den.

Glancing at the crashing waves on the beach with her golden eyes, Ammy stroked the brilliant blue mane of a sleeping Lupinossai child in her lap. Her family was an interesting way to term the oddity it was. A mate that was a deity that fell to being just an angel and often sought out being normal just to spend time with his wife. He, or better put, shi was a young child now. Ten years old and all of hir memories gone until shi ages more. Memories of a wife, a daughter, and a grandson. Ammy stroked Fleety's mane more. The age didn't bother her as it was a product of a spell gone wrong and would correct itself in time. The loss of the memories is was jabbed her in the heart to see her loved mate look at her with no recognition and even fear.

Her ears flicked as she heard the disturbed dreams of Luna in the loft. Another nightmare of her enslavement most likely. She heard the lycan settle soon though so she didn't get up. Luna was an addition to her family much like Iimiidiina was. After Myrlene left her and Fleet for some semblance of sanity she was lacking in a family so hounded by chaos, I got lonely. I wanted another child but Fleety is too scared to have another one with good reasons. Myrlene just missed getting a full dose of deity genes which would have made her a deity. Instead it made a rapid aging daughter that was smarter than she should be with magic skills rivaling my own and even Fleets if she would just be brave enough to work the magic talents more.

Ammy sighed. But Myrlene wont. She's too scared and to scarred from events to develop more. She went for normalcy and was mated and has a child now. I could have tried to work with Fleets son from his first wife, but Vuusoolta is too strong willed and stubborn like his father. His ways are set and he will go far. Without approval from Fleet to bear another child, what did I do? I turned to adoption. I chose Iimiidiina, or actually he chose me and a human veterinarian named Sean to be his legal parents. I thought things would go well, be normal, give me a chance to raise a proper kid. Maybe correct the mistakes I made with Myrlene. I was wrong. Iimiidiina was just as quick at everything that Myrlene was and even more. He was rarely at the house always off training in one thing or the other.

So I still sit alone, with no one to love or raise. Fleety went from war to politics then to healing then to being severely beaten and raped. Shi's gone back to healing and working at Whisper Paws Hospital, but during that whole time shi was never around me much. Myrlene was the only thing that kept us together. When she left, Fleety put hirself more into work as if I didn't exist anymore. Maybe it wasn't hir but me? I was always gone from home too. I never fit the profile of a house bitch. I am too wild, to energetic and just can't seem to stay put.

That is the founding reason why I am sitting in this house surrounded by a lot of people. Some I know, some I don't know so well, and others I am falling in love with.

Rustling sound from Ammy's bedroom caught her attention. Sounds like Vixie was stirring some. Ammy went back to her thoughts again. Seems like it was yesterday that she ran into Mirius who was coughing her lungs out due to a parasite. I could have left her to die. I really could. I knew she was part of Spiritor problems that had surfaced recently but could I really turn my back on one more person? Can I really accept one more death I could've stopped? I couldn't and healed her. My rewards for that was seeing a Lupinossai that was a strong, loving mother of an orphan pup named Rawsha. Both were sleeping in another bedroom, happy and in peace with each other.

Mirius also brought me Luna is a bizarre way. Luna was her slave and that ticked me off to no end. I did what I did best. I opened my muzzle and shoved my foot in so far my toes tickled my lungs. I thought I could free Luna but the young lycan was so abused and broken by the slavers that freedom was instant death to her. So I broke my oath never to have a slave and now have Luna. But she really isn't a slave but someone I let into my ravaged and violence torn heart as another daughter to raise. She's has a lot of issues, but then again who doesn't in this house?

Well maybe not Vixie. She'd only met the young teenager a few times and Vixie always seemed a ray of sunshine to everyone. Having to put her back together after some vile creature ripped into her seems to have dampened the ray of light she was. I am growing tired of watching people getting hurt.

Ammy wrapped her arms reflexively around the sleeping Fleety. I just want to protect everyone and when I do that I get hurt, but at least it's me, and not them. I can deal with the pain. I have been dealing with pain for so long I can't remember when I've had a normal carefree day. I seemed to have been made to bear such heavy loads and ask for me with daring in my eyes.

Yet, I tried to do that and prevent the Den from being in a war with Igneous and that fell flat on me like a brick wall. I am once again exiled from the Den I built and loved. I am now offering sanctuary to people in a house shielded with more magic than should be possible because I took on these vile beast that tried to attack Mirius and a baby dragon we found. Now it's after me and anyone else in the Glen. I stood up to it and almost didn't live. Thank Lupis I have a lot of magic.

Magic? The one thing that seems to get me into trouble more than opening my muzzle. It's like I have a large target on my back asking for everything nasty to come after me. Ammy's paw touched the slave collar around her neck for a moment. I've even resorted to using my old slave collar from Fleet to dampen my magic so I can hide and rest. At least the cast is off of my arm now.

Another glance around the house full of memories and sleeping people. She even saw Valla on guard outside. How did I do this? I've become a rallying point again for people under assault from the unknown. I am not indestructible. Three deaths have proven that yet I am drug out of my grave time an again to rally people. Why? What is it in me that people find so attractive and worthy? I used to be nothing more than a magic weapon for the Spiritor military, yet people love me and I love them back.

A clock chimed in the house noting it was 9 in the morning, which meant she should really get up and get food ready for all of these people. She'd never cooked much when it was her, Fleety, and Myrlene. Now she was cooking like a professional house wife. Ammy just smirked to herself and gently slid the sleeping Fleety to the couch. Mirius was right. Shi was so cute when sleeping.

Ammy stood and went into the kitchen to cook. The sound of sizzling venison bacon would be heard and the chopping of onions and garlic to follow. She diced up some potatoes while continuing her mental dialogue. She still had time to think before anyone woke up.

Seems to me that the more people I care for, the more normal I become. I have less time to worry about things, and less time to play hero. Maybe I should just adopt everyone in the house and just have one huge family. Maybe start up my own Great Den. Call it the Great Den Ammy? Nah. She chuckled at that though. It would better be called the Great Den Disaster if I was the ruler. But why start a Great Den? I already started one, the Den. It may have it's problems, but what city didn't?

She moved the bacon off onto a large plate and threw in the sliced potatoes, garlic, and onion. A few stirs and she was off rummaging in the fridge for eggs. A lot of eggs. The ring of cracking eggs on metal bowl filled the house for a little bit then the scrape of the metal whisk to follow.

Okay, so I can cook now without setting off all the fire alarms, I can mother people decently now, and seemed to have fallen in love with another female Lupinossai. Ammy grinned as she whisked in pepper and salt. Mirius wasn't the first girl I've fallen in love with. I had a few, lovers, in Armestis when I was gone for ten years. I mean, love and companionship is all that matter regardless of sex, creed, or species. Though I guess some would look at me like a freak. What's new. I am a humanoid canine in a land full of people that would rather be happy with Elves, Dwarves, and Dragons. Nothing wrong with those races either, but it seems the humanoids that don't look like some close semblance to humans seem to get shunned some. But that happens in all worlds and civilizations.

Soon the potatoes were fried and into a serving dish. Ammy started scrambling the eggs. I know many have asked how the hell I manage to stay sane with all the crap and violence in my life? Well some people are just made sturdy though I've hit my breaking points lately. Some people handle it by beating up others, going insane, disappearing from life all together, or trying to take their lives. Her gold eyes shifted to emerald green a moment or two as she looked up and glanced at the sleeping Fleety.

There is a Lupe who's been to every known hell and heaven and is still willing to be with people though shi tried dying to join me when I died two years ago. Ammy shook her head and soon plated the scrambled eggs. I know he would have survived if shi let me stay dead, but something made hir bring me back. She took the dishes with food out to the large dining room and rested a paw on a hand bell that would wake everyone once she wrung it.

Should she ring it? How often does she get time to just think? But thinking often lead her down paths that got her into more trouble. Maybe I should just stop worrying about tomorrow, yesterday, and today, and just be Ammy. Here, in the present, no worries, no concerns, just putting one paw in front of the other and helping where I can? That would be a nice dream but then I'd have to wake up to reality again, right? Oh well, maybe I'll just enjoy the dreaming while I can and make anyone who pisses me while awake more miserable than myself.

The hand bell was taken up and she wrung it a few times to wake everyone up. "Breakfast is ready!"

Deep in the Outback:

N.P.C.: The Drow dropped each captive on the dusty ground of the outback. The area was a natural three sided clearing in thick, nasty, dead poison berry bushes with long thorns. Not lethal, but the poison would weaken escapees. 2 ogres guarded the entry once the drow were done.

Igneous: Igneous walked into the military camp. In the distance the roar of challenges and the sounds of catipults and magic blasts could be heard. "Ah. Sweet, sweet sounds of war." he stepped into his tent for a moment.

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy was completlely out. Dust, sand, and furr matting with blood at the gash in her head. With two darts in her she was down for a while.

rawsha: -Rawsha was so far under, dreams were out of the question, the young lupe was carried to the camp and dropped onto the ground of the holding area.

N.P.C.: "Prisoners have been detained Sir." the original drow spoke.

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie was out as well. So much for having a good day to recover from a terrible week of torture.

Igneous: "Very well. Prepare to attack the right flank of the enemy. Some of the lupes look a bit young." he grinned.

N.P.C.: "Understood. And the sleeping prisoners?"

Igneous: "I'll be waking them up." another nasty grin. "Now leave."

N.P.C.: The drow nodded and left to fill his order.

N.P.C.: The sleeping potion should be wearing off soon.

Igneous: Igneous left his tent and picked up a nasty looking cat of nine tails from one of the orc and coiled it up in his paws. He walked up to the two ogres and they stepped aside. He moved into the entry way and stood watching the sleeping ladies. "Wakey, wakey." he called out.

N.P.C.: Someone was clinking up behind Igneous. "More slaves sir?" a bored looking hobgoblin spoke. He had several slave collars in his hand.

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie slowly came to and looked around. She rubbed her eyes and sat up. "Mogriil?" Vixie looked around and began to panic again. "Mogriil!? Mogriil!" she began calling out for him for help.

Igneous: "Yes." he grinned.

Luna Felblade: *Luna groans softly as she slowly comes around. She already had a collar around her neck. Luna stasrt to cry when she doesnt see Ammy.*

Igneous: "Collar them except those two." he points to Luna and Ammy. "Shackles for the red head and chains on the collar she wears.make sure her paws are behind her. Chain on the young lycan."

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy was laying near Luna, not moving.

Luna Felblade: *Luna spots her mom and shakes her as tears run down her muzzle* "Mommy? Mommy please wake up!" *Luna is terrified to be on her own*

N.P.C.: "Alright." the hobgoblin nodded and went to work. First target was Vixie who was awake and closest. He held an iron collar that he would try to snap around her neck. Chain dangled from it.

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy was the heaviest hit with the potion and her head injury wasn't good.

rawsha: -finally Rawsha, started to stir, those deep-sea blue eyes taking a moment to focus, her jacket had gotten tangled up around her and she whimpered out trying to pull the hood where she could see, it smelt strange here, she finally righted the jacket and looked around...oh be brave....Rawsha be brave....she thought as she looked around for her mother-

Vixie Rivergem: She yelped and started crawling backwards." No no no no no! Please no!" Vixie was frightened by the sight of the collar and didn't want it to be on her.

Luna Felblade: *Luna ripped her shirt and tended her moms wound. Fear and anger showed in her golden eyes*

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius was just lying on the ground still. She has not woken up just yet.

N.P.C.: The hobgoblin just grinned with nasty teeth and reached for her hair to pull her to him.

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie felt her hair grabbed and she screamed. She tries to kick the hobgoblin away with a foot.

Igneous: Watched Luna dealing with Ammy. He had the key to controlling that dangerous lupe. "Stop playing Wart and put that collar on the b***h already."

N.P.C.: Grunts getting kicked in the knee. "Stupid wench." grabs for that foot instead.

Luna Felblade: *Luna looks up and growls at Igneous. She draws some water from the air and throws it at him. The water became ice needles as it flew*

N.P.C.: Igneous was caught by surprise and felt the sting of icy needles in his arm. "You little brat." the whip uncoiled and he lashed out at Luna with it.

Vixie Rivergem: "Please! Don't put it on me!" She started to nearly cry. After her foot was cat she pawed at the ground trying to get away. "Mogriil!" Vixie was screaming for help again

N.P.C.: The hobgoblin was on top of her, collar going for the neck.

Luna Felblade: *Luna screams as she felt the whip hit her shoulder. She holds her shoulder in agony,*

rawsha: -she whines out seeing her mother on the other side of everyone..she would move toward her and toward her side, she looked up at Igneous, those eyes would blink the young lupe would swallow some, seeing the whip but quietly kneel at her mothers side and paws shook her- "Mi'iaa?"

Igneous: Igneous was stalking for Luna raising a paw and forming chain out of nothing. "I'll chain you up myself, magic pup." the chain grew manacles as well.

Vixie Rivergem: The collar would go around her neck and she would struggle around. Then bring her paws to the neck to try and open up the collar t oget it off. "No! Get it off! Get it off!" She was in full panic mode.

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius groaned and her left paw moved some. Tail twitched, too.

Luna Felblade: *Luna glares defiantly at Igneous and launched another barrage of ice needles, but it was much weaker then the last. She wanted to stay near her mom, but she ended up trying to scoot away*

N.P.C.: Snick went the iron collar. The hobgoblin took the chain end and drove a long metal steak into the rocky ground where it would hold vixie in place.

Igneous: Fire swirled around igneous melting the needles this time. He whiped at her again getting much closer now.

N.P.C.: Wart was now moving for Rawsha. "Here poppy. Come her poppy." he cooed out with a laugh.

Luna Felblade: *Luna cries in pain as the whip connected with her right arm. She contiued ti back away from him, while throwing weaker and weaker attack*

rawsha: "Mi'iaa?" -she leaned close to her mother, staying close to her, she looked over watching what was going on the young lupes eyes went wide as she turned and saw the hobgoblin and yelped as she fell back over her mother-

Vixie Rivergem: After being chained she then tried to pul lthe steak out of the ground, but no luck obviously. She started to cry and scream for Mogriil again. "Mogriil! Mogriil! Help!" She cried. He said he was going to protect her, but she didn't know where he was. She launched forward at Igneous, but only going a short ways being held by the chain. "Why are you doing this!? We've done no wrong!" Vixie cried in anger, too, and fell to her knees.

N.P.C.: Lunges to grab for rawsha neck. Nasty teeth bared in a cruel smile again.

Igneous: "Pain!" he swore sending a curse at Luna with intent to fill her body with pain and subdue her.

rawsha: -she blinks and rolls out of the way of the lunge, she was small and fast-

Luna Felblade: *Luna screams in absolute agony as she fully colapses to the ground. She twitch and yelps and whimpers as it felt like she is on fire*

Igneous: Igneous grabs her, attempting to slap the shackles on her wrists.

N.P.C.: "Oy. Poppy. No need to run. Be nice and I'll pet you." he chuckled.

Luna Felblade: *Luna doesnt fight him. Her mind is too confused by the pain*

Mirius Pojoris: Miris groaned again, rubbing the side of her face. She pushed herself up off the ground "What the hell s goin' on..." She didn't realize what was going on first, trying to get out of the daze from he poison.

rawsha: "no..ugly taan not touch Rawsha!" -she was watching him backing up-

Igneous: Shackles her paws together and just like Vixie teathers her to the rocky ground.

N.P.C.: Grabs for her legs quickly.

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy's breathing was picking up as the potion was slowly leaving her.

Luna Felblade: *Luna whimpers as she draws her knees to her chest and rests her head on those. She lets a kong sad howl. She feels like she failed*

rawsha: "mama!" -yelping as he caught her foot. she squeeled a moment as she was slightly caught off guard, but she went to kicking him over and over again trying to get away-

Mirius Pojoris: She heard screaming from her daughter thne quickly looked around. Mirius got her brearings fast and once she spotted hobgobling messing with her daughter. She growled and withdrew her knife and charged for the gobling, planning on stabbing him in the back.

Igneous: Igneous stood and cracked the whip aiming for Mirius.

N.P.C.: Grunts getting kicked more. "Stop it poppy!" he growled and squeezed really hard on her foot.

Luna Felblade: *Luna whimpers and pulls at her shackle. She starts to rock back and forth and mutter to herself*

Mirius Pojoris: She felt the whip go across her back. Mirius fell to her hands and knees screaming in pain, but that wasn't going to stop her. Stil lholding her knife she went for the hobgobling again. Holding her knife up to aim to stab it into him."Ye aint' gonna mess with me daughter!!"

Ammy Spiritor: She gave a slight groan blowing dust out of her muzzle.

rawsha: -she yelped in pain and whimpered out as she felt his tightening grip on her foot, she was on her back looking up at him- "owwww" -she howled out-

Luna Felblade: "Mommy?" *Luna said in a raspy voice* "Mommy please wake up."

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie sits there on her knees, face buried in her paws crying. She was scared and didn't know where Mogriil was or even if he was left alive.

Igneous: "Fiesty tonight Mirius." Igneous said aiming to heat up the knife with a fire spell.

N.P.C.: Wart was bending over to put the collar on rawsha's neck unaware of the knife that sunk into his back. He grunted in pain.

rawsha: -those deep blue eyes looking up at the hobgoblin she grabbed up a paw full of dirt and threw it in his face-

Mirius Pojoris: "Gah!" She let go of the knife. Then went to grab the hobgobling by the neck and start choking him.

N.P.C.: Stumbles back blinded by the dirt and now howled as the knife heated up in his back. Easy grabbing target for Mirius.

Mirius Pojoris: She would go to wrap an arm around his neck into a headlock to choke the air out of him. "I'll kill ye fer messin' with me daughter!" Mirius shouted in anger.

Ammy Spiritor: "Uhn?" she said incoherently. Her head was stabbing with pain and she tasted blood. Ammy didn't know what was going on or why she couldn't move her paws.

N.P.C.: Starts choking, flailing.

Luna Felblade: "Mommy" *Luna said louder.*

rawsha: -she scurried up away from Wart and moved to stand up she was backing away but watched her mother-

Igneous: Igneous rolled his eyes and slammed a shock spell at wart that would inturn shock mirius. "You two, in here now." he barked at the ogres.

N.P.C.: The towering ogres came inside and two drow followed behind to keep any runners from making any rash decisions.

Ammy Spiritor: "Luna?" she croaked.

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius suddenly let go of Wart and fell to the ground from the shock. She yelled in pain from the shock. She's having more problems with lightning than any other spell it seemed.

Luna Felblade: "Mommy, I'm scared."

Igneous: Igneous was on Mirius like a snake with collar and shackles snapped into place teathering her to the ground. He stood and looked at Wart who was puffed up and dead. "Useless." he moved after Rawsha now.

Mirius Pojoris: She struggled against the binds and growled in anger. "Igneous! Get away from me daughter now!"

Ammy Spiritor: "What's...going on?" she tried open her eyes. One eye stung as she had blood and grit in it. The other was a dialated golden iris that just saw blurs around her.

rawsha: -she saw the display of magic, and blinked...this must be Igneous she thought, she watched the ogres and drow but her eyes where watching her mother- "mama! -she looked at Igneous as he was walking toward her-..."yom leave my friends alone!!" -she tried to back away...she was bring brave like her mother had taught her-

Igneous: "Oh, you don't like this?" he grinned and snapped the whip and Rawshas feet barely missing.

Luna Felblade: "A man hit me with a whip and chained me"

N.P.C.: The ogres were moving for Ammy with chains and manacles.

Luna Felblade: "STAY AWAY FROM MY MOMMY!" *Luna yelled and lost her voice*

Ammy Spiritor: The memory of the attacks and everyone falling hit her. She struggled to sit up and saw her paws together held by iron. Ammy clapped her paws intent on removing the iron with alchemy, but nothing happened. "What?" she forgot about her collar being on still.

Mirius Pojoris: She screamed in anger and said many disturbing words. She panted in anger and just watched Igneous. "What is yer problem! If ye hurt Rawsha I'll kill ye personally! Ye coward!"

rawsha: -she yipped as the whip barely missed her...she blinked looking up at him- "yom leave us alone!" -her quiet voice gone she was scared and wanted her mother but her eyes didnt leave the male with the whip-

N.P.C.: The ogres ignored Luna. They weren't very bright and followed simple orders. One reached for Ammy with a large leathery hand.

Igneous: "Then come to my feet and put on this collar." he commanded Rawsha. Whip poised in a position to strike any of the slaves.

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy bit that hand.

Luna Felblade: *Luna doesnt have a voice anymore. She has peed herself at this point*

N.P.C.: The ogre howled in pain and tried to get Ammy off of it's hand. With a pull the ogre would yank its hand away. If ammy stayed attached she'd go flying.

Ammy Spiritor: She stayed latched on and indeed went into the air.

N.P.C.: The ogre shook his hand still howling.

rawsha: -she looked at the collar..she had only seen two collars, in her life and both puzzled her....but the young lupe had backed herself til she was about a foot from the thorny bush walls...her gaze looked at the others, she didnr know what to do-

Igneous: A twitch of the whip and it sent the nine ends for Mirius.

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy couldn't hand on and crashed into the ground next to Vixie. She whined in pain.

rawsha: -she swallowed and yelped as he struck her mother- "ookaa ...please not hurt her!"

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius barked and whimpered in pain. "Why don't ye fight me yerself!" She screamed at Igneous. She wasn't giving up.

Igneous: "Smart girl." he held out the collar to Rawsha. It was made of pure iron and had a chain dangling from it with a long spike for the ground.

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie looked over hearing someone land beside her. She saw Ammy and gasped. "Ammy!" As fast as she could she went to help Ammy get up. "Ammy! They're putting collars on us!" She cried.

Igneous: A glance to Mirius. "Oh, this if for allying yourself with Ammy. You're mine now and you will do what I say, or..." he looked right at rawsha with cold eyes. "Your daughter get's hurt."

rawsha: -she would do as he commanded, the young lupe would move to him and takes the collar she had tears in her eyes as she put it around her neck- "please dont hurt her" -she looked up at him-

Ammy Spiritor: She was breathing hard. Nothing broken, but close. "Vixie?" she asked, blood trickling into both eyes blinding her.

Luna Felblade: *Luna is alone where she is staked to the ground. She is crying, but it is silent sobs*

Vixie Rivergem: She saw the blood and began to wipe away the blood. Even using part of her dress to help get it out of her eyes and face. "Ammy! Please, can you do something!?"

Igneous: Snaps the collar shut and shoves the spike in the ground ensuring Rawsha and Mirius couldn't reach each other. He turned to Ammy now. "Last, but certainly not least." he looked at the ogre with a larg bite in it's hand. "Go get healed." he ordered and moved for ammy.

Ammy Spiritor: A ragged breath or two. "Collar. Get it off me."

Vixie Rivergem: She lookved over and saw Igneous coming. Swifly she went to Ammy's neck to take the collar off without a word.

Igneous: That whip was now twitching back and forth as he moved for Vixie and Ammy watching them.

Luna Felblade: *Ammy whould see her wodden ring glow. Luna's is glowing as well*

Igneous: Snaps out that whip at Vixie.

Vixie Rivergem: She cries out in pain feeling it hit her side and arm. Vixie whimpers, but goes for the collar again.

N.P.C.: The ogres had left, just leaving the Drow. They watched the game Igneous was playing with boredom. Pay was the only thing keeping them here.

Ammy Spiritor: Tries to help Vixie get the collar off by rolling in the way to block Vixie from Igneous.

Igneous: Snicker snap, snicker snap, snicker snap. he lashed out at Ammy's back three times.

Ammy Spiritor: "Gah!." she yipped out feeling the dip bite of all three lashes but she stayed in place.

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie was able to get to the collar now. Her paws were on it and working it. It didn't seem there was anytihng to stop her now as she was taking it off.

N.P.C.: The drow saw the collar coming off and made bets on what would happen next.

rawsha: -she looked over at her mother, she would try her hardest to get to her crawling stretching struggling against the chain and spike- "mama!"

Igneous: Another snap of the whip at Ammy.

Luna Felblade: * Luna cries silent*

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius growled again. "Igneous! Ye fricken' pathetic coward! I've seen pups with more courage than ye! Get over here!"

Ammy Spiritor: Collar gone, she twisted clapping her paws echoing the snap and disentegrates the whip.

Vixie Rivergem: Finally having that collar off she backed away so Ammy could have room to do her thing. "Vixie didn't want to be in the way of the fight.

Igneous: "Ah you have your magic back. Good. Come now, let's see if you are worth remaking into a weapon." he slapped a bolt of lightning at Ammy.

Ammy Spiritor: She couldn't avoid the attack or counter it with her bound paws. She screamed when hit and crumpled.

Luna Felblade: * luna tries to get to her mom, but her chain stops her*

Igneous: "Coward?" he laughed at Mirius. "I am standing, not you." he smirked. He grabbed ammy by the hair with one paw and grabbed her collar with the other paw and drug her to the center of the holding area. Fastening the collar back in place, he sealed the buckle shut with magic. Then he chained her to the ground too and gave her a swift kick to the ribs.

rawsha: -she couldnt reach her mother...so she did the only thing she knew of that wouldnt let the enemy know anything about her at the moment ...she sat down indian style and closed her eyes there near the spike her collar was attached to...her father had left her with knowledge of one thing while all that star gazing was going on when he was alive he had shown her how to calm herself at a very young age, she took some breaths and wipes the tears from her eyes, she thought about the Soul Garden--

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie screamed, "No! Please don't hurt Ammy! Please!"

Luna Felblade: *Luna cries. She wants her momm*

N.P.C.: The drow looked in amusement thogh one passed the other money losing the bet.

Igneous: Igneous sat on Ammy and looked at the slaves. "Ah, such beautiful company."

rawsha: -she looked over at the drow and glared-

Luna Felblade: "Mommy." *Luna said weakly. Tears made her muzzle whiney*

Ammy Spiritor: Grunts being kicked and sat on.

N.P.C.: The drow glare back, hands brushing crossbows.

Mirius Pojoris: "Just 'cause I'm on the ground don't make me a coward. Ye just scared to fight me yerself." She growled at him.

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie went back to sitting on her knees starting to feel hopeless. She buried her paws in her face again. "Mogriil...where are you...." she cried to herself.

Igneous: "Now what to do with all of you." he looked right at mirius. "I think you'll serve nicely on the front lines as a leader for our high risk missions." he grinned. A look at Rawsha. "And you will serve me and my men, or your mother is hurt."

rawsha: -she looked at Igneous, but her mind was on the two drow, the two drow start getting horrible tastes in their mouths to the point when they swallow they get nausiated

N.P.C.: The look on their faces was unpleasant and they left soon to be heard retching.

Luna Felblade: *Luna looks exhasuted*

rawsha: -she nodded acting most serventlike, the young lupe might be young but she was sharp-

Igneous: A glance at Vixie for a moment. "Ah, yes. The b***h of Mogriil. You are going to sit in my lap and look pretty for me and my commanders. I made sure Mogriil knew I took you and left him a nice little note. He comes for you, you die."

Igneous: A look at Luna now. "I am surprised a lowly lycan is in this group." he glanced down at Ammy. "Picking up strays and street trash are we. You're going to regret it. I need this war to more forward, but your Den has a strong army. Not strong enough though if I have you blasting their ranks. You're going to be my weapon."

Mirius Pojoris: She growled in anger and said some swears at Igneous.

Ammy Spiritor: "Or what." she spat out, face down in the ground.

Luna Felblade: "Leave mommy alone." *Luna said very weakly. Blood dripped from thr whip mark on her arm and shoulder*

Igneous: "I have your daughter. Your precious, lycan daughter. Obey me, or you get to watch her scream."

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie looked up at Igneous in fear. "No...no please! I don't want to die...." she continued crying and started to feel a bit broken again.

Ammy Spiritor: "Bastard." she growled.

Igneous: A grin looking at Vixie. "Then you stay pretty and hope your Mogriil doesn't show up."

Igneous: "Now do you all see why I have you? I hold the keys over this war now."

Luna Felblade: "Why Luna?"

Igneous: "Because, she," grabs Ammy's hair and yanks her head back. "is fond of you."

Ammy Spiritor: "I....wont... break..." she growled.

Luna Felblade: "Let my mommy go please." *Luna's voice is very soft*

Mirius Pojoris: "Don't listen to him, Rawsha...him hurtin' me ain't some biggie." She snarled. ""cause he knows his troops are the worst of the worst. I'm better than any of 'em! I'm too precious fer him to lose."

Igneous: Pulls harder.

Ammy Spiritor: Yips, her head wounds opening up again. "Luna.... I'll be...okay... be strong."

Luna Felblade: *Luna whimpers and curls up* "Luna will be good. Luna is a good puppy"

Igneous: A glance right at Mirius. "Yes, indeed, Mirius. You will be fighting for me." he grinned and let Ammy's hair go.

rawsha: -Rawsha watched Igneous and dusted dirt out of her fur, her jacket's sleeve was ripped the knee of her right pants leg was ripped and her foot hurt but the young lupe was just sitting there...she heard her mother- "but if im good mama...he wont try to hurt you" -she sounded as if she was going to mind Igneous.-

Igneous: Standing he walked for Vixie and took a good look at her with a grin. "Mogriil has fine taste."

Luna Felblade: "Luna is hungry"

Mirius Pojoris: "It don't matter, Rawsha. If he weakin's me then he ain't got a good solider on the field."

Igneous: "Oh, you are wrong Mirius. I can hurt you and heal you and hurt you again."

Luna Felblade: "Mister?" *Luna's voice is weak*

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie sniffled and looked up at Igneous. She backed away on the ground feeling very afraid of him.

Igneous: A look to Luna. "Yes slave?"

Luna Felblade: "Luna is hungry. May Luna have food?" *SHe is reverting to how she was before AMmy got her*

Mirius Pojoris: She snarled again and rolled her eyes. Didn't seem like she was going to get out of this...."Aww, so ye love me. How cute. I never knew ye could be so affectionate, Iggy."

Igneous: For that, Igneous hit Mirius with the pain spell he used on Luna.

Ammy Spiritor: "What's the matter Igneous. Getting riled up by a group of girls?" she laughed with some pain in her chest and ribs.

Mirius Pojoris: She got shocked and yelped. Then started laughing.

rawsha: -she hoped those two drow had vomited up everything in their stomachs, she watched Igneous, her paws moving up the collar and rubbing under it slightly but she stayed quiet-

Igneous: He was growling at the this point. "How dare you mock me!"

Luna Felblade: "PLease mister, dont hurt mommy"

Mirius Pojoris: "Ye asked fer it, iggy. Ye just outta yer league." She snickered

N.P.C.: By this time two more ogres were in place at the front and a small group of airii, all collared and enslaved were standing at the entry.

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie wasn't liking the insults. She was starting to get more scared thinking if they make him mad she or someone else might get really hurt.

Igneous: He stalked over to Mirius and kicked hard for that snickering muzzle.

rawsha: -she started to growl as she watched him kick her mother but cut it short-

Ammy Spiritor: She had managed to roll painfully on her side to see Igneous. This was bad. They were in deep trouble.

Luna Felblade: "Mommy?"

Mirius Pojoris: "Aaah!" she screamed. A tooth was even knocked out of her mouth and she was bleeding oout of her muzzle. "And who said I ever left ye, Igneous!?" she growled.

Igneous: "Ever since you went to that Den, you've been gone. You've been turned by that excuse of a Spiritor." he spat at Ammy.

Luna Felblade: "Mommy is great"

Ammy Spiritor: "I'm okay." she said to Luna fighting to keep the pain out of her voice. "Vixie. Vixie, don't be scared."

Mirius Pojoris: "It was called deception." She growled. "Called workin' from the inside. I was suppose to look like I was changed. I had to make myself believable you idiot!"

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy looked at Mirius for a long moment hearing that. Did Mirius really just lie to her this whole time?

rawsha: -she had heard things about Igneous that had made her admire him...her mother had told her things,. she was looking at him trying to figure all this out, he was someone she had wanted to meet since she met Mirius...for some reason she still admired the magic using general...but was she just another dumb lupe kid?-

Igneous: "So you feel no love for Ammy then? No love for Rawsha? Just using them for cover?" he moved away from Mirius looking at ammy and rawsha coldly.

Luna Felblade: *Luna tries to reach her mom, but the chai isnt long enough*

N.P.C.: The group of Airii just stared at the ground. "Master. We come when you call. We care for slaves now?"

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius was of course lying, now, but she seemed to be really good at doing so. But she isn't fully aware of the consequences on the others. She was just trying to get Igneous off her back. "I love Rawsha as she be me own daughter. It's good bein' a mother. And that den was willin' to take her away and I'd kill 'em fer tryin'."

rawsha: -she looked over at her mother and back to Igneous-

Igneous: He paused in mid stalking hearing the group of Airii slaves. That pause was enough to snap him out of his rage and killing fever. "Take care of these slaves." he growled and left the enclosure.

N.P.C.: The Airii scattered like ducklings then reformed and moved. Two to each slave.

Luna Felblade: *Luna is quiet and stareing into space*

Mirius Pojoris: She growled and just lied there on the ground, sighing.

N.P.C.: They held blankets, food, water, and healing supplies.

Luna Felblade: *Luna doesnt respond. She is locked in her mind again*

Vixie Rivergem: "More slaves?" She whimpered. Vixie was starting to feel hopeless. "I'm going to die a slave...."

Igneous: He stormed into his tent in a foul mood. Was Mirius telling the truth? Did his hate of the Den and the need of Ammy blind him to this?

N.P.C.: Luna would covered with a blanket and taken care of.

N.P.C.: Rawsha was given food and her injuries cleaned and bandaged. The airii working in silence and flinching at any unusual noises.

Luna Felblade: "Mommy? Luna want mommy"

N.P.C.: The two tending to Vixie tried to calm her. "You wont die. You pretty. He wants you." one of them whispered. "Pretty ones survive until leaders tired of them."

Ammy Spiritor: "I'm here Luna." she called out.

rawsha: -she watched the two Airri and took what they offered she pulled the blanket around herself, the child looked at her friends and her mother and these slaves...she was trying to keep from crying...she hid under the blanket after taking some of the food and water, it was warm under the blanket and she was freezing and had just noticed-

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie whimpered at hearing that and whispered back. "How do I make him not tired of me?"

Luna Felblade: "Mommy, Luna scared. Luna's arm and shoulder are dripping red"

N.P.C.: The airii tended to mirius as well.

N.P.C.: The ones with Luna would clean and bandage the wounds. "Master has bad temper."

N.P.C.: "Do what he say." one airii told Vixie. "Maybe he let you go. Maybe he make you his. Maybe you get..." the airii looked around scared. "you..get knife.. stab him good."

Mirius Pojoris: "I ain't in need of help...." she grunted at the Airii trying to help her.

Luna Felblade: "Luna is a good girl. Luna is good." *SHe kept repeating to herself*

N.P.C.: They would still give Mirius blanket and food and water then sat with her.

Ammy Spiritor: "You are a good girl Luna." Ammy whispered.

N.P.C.: The two airii with Ammy worked on cleaning her head wound and bandaging them. "Lady Ammy. Sad, see you here like this."

Vixie Rivergem: "Stab?" she whispered back. "But...but I don't think I could stab anyone...."

Luna Felblade: "Mommy must not like Luna. Luna was weak,"

Mirius Pojoris: She sighed. "Damn it." Seemed she was getting help either way.

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy gritted through the cleaning and bandaging. Hearing luna made her hurt worse. "You're not weak Luna. Be strong like mom."

Luna Felblade: "Luna should protect mommy."

N.P.C.: "You want live? You stab." The airii told Vixie.

Ammy Spiritor: "Keep thinking that Luna. You will protect me. Just wait for your chance."

N.P.C.: The airii with Rawsha checked on her.

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie cried softly and still whimpered. Slowly she nodded her head. "Okay...." she said very softly. Hurting someone else was the last thing she wanted to do in life.

Luna Felblade: "Mommy, my head hurts"

Ammy Spiritor: "So does mine Luna."

Mirius Pojoris: "Well, this sucks...." she mumbled and lied there on the ground.

N.P.C.: They wrapped Ammy in a blanket and gave her food and water as well. A drow showed up and chased the Airii away and left as well. The ogres stood guard.

Luna Felblade: *Luna had hit her head going down into sleep* " Mommy, Luna wants to be near you"

Igneous: Igneous mused through the night about what to do. He had what he wanted yet he wasn't satisfied. That hunger for more of everything gnawed at him again.

Ammy Spiritor: "I know." she whispered. Like everyone else, she was out of reach of everyone.

rawsha: -she was crying curled up under the blanket. she was cold, she usually stayed bundled up at night, she zipped up the jacket and put the hood up around her head the best she could...and used the blanket around herself-

Luna Felblade: "Mommy, your ring." * The leaf on Luna's ring is glowing to show thet where connected&

Ammy Spiritor: "Sorry this outing sucked everyone." she said sighing heavily. Ammy looked at her ring and it was glowing as well. "Think mogriil will get help?"

Mirius Pojoris: "Crap happens, Ammy. Ain't that much of a biggy."

Ammy Spiritor: "You really lying about liking me?" she asked with wounded tone.

Luna Felblade: "I love you mommy"

Ammy Spiritor: "Love you too Luna."

Vixie Rivergem: "Stab...." she said to herself in a whisper. It was a painful word for her to say. Vixie sniffled. She got onto her hands and knees to start praying to Canis that she didn't have to hurt anyone and was praying that Mogriil or someone could come and save her and everyone else. Even if it meant her own death.

Luna Felblade: "Mommy, where is my necklace?" *SHe wore a topaz stone necklace which sealed her spilit personality, She also wore the half heart that she shared with her mom*

Ammy Spiritor: "I don't know sweety."

Mirius Pojoris: She looked to Ammy and gave a quiet stare. Mirius couldn't say anything or else ears around the camp could hear. She just gave Ammy a unhappy and sad look. Really she still wanted to be close to Ammy, but that was going to to do around in the camp and Igneous and his forces.

Ammy Spiritor: "You okay Vixie?"

Luna Felblade: "What if AJ comes out?"

Vixie Rivergem: After finishing the prayer she looked over to Ammy with a fearful and saddened look. "I...I don't know....I'm scared Ammy....I'm scared...." her body trembled violently.

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy closed her eyes after seeing that stare. She knew what that meant. There was hope still. "You'll just have to fight her off Luna."

Luna Felblade: *Luna eyes shift color to emerald green* "Too late, pup." *Her voice is cold*

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy nodded. "Just stay calm and think of mogriil or something happy. Don't think about anything else. It'll help. Rawsha, you okay?"

rawsha: -she looked over toward the ogre guards and then looks to her mama- "mama...i'm trying to be brave...im trying...-she was having memories of mean lupe kids at the orphanage..she looks over at Ammy- "yes..im ookaa..just cold...but ookaa"

Vixie Rivergem: "But if Mogriil comes Igneous said he will kill me!" She cried. "What do I do!?"

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy nodded for a moment. "He wont kill you Vixie. He does that, Mogriil will kill him for sure. Just stay calm."

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius fixated on her daughter. "Don't give up, Rawsha. Yer a strong pup. Just don't say and do stupid things like yer mother is doin'." she grinned.

Luna Felblade: "I know you whould get my friend in trouble. Ammy-pup" *Said AJ*

Ammy Spiritor: "We all need to stick together." she didn't know what to do about Luna. That was a battle she had to fight on her own for now.

Vixie Rivergem: "But what if he does? I won't get to see my family again...and Mogriil will be all alone...and Sean won't have help at th vet..and.." Vixie started crying again. Throwing this on top of the recent trauma wasn't helping her at all.

Ammy Spiritor: "Yeah, we're in trouble, but we'll get out of it." she said to Luna. She'd been slaved before. The key was patience and timing.

Luna Felblade: "You tried to free her and failed. I think you made her worse pup." *AJ snarls*

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy just lowered her head hearing Luna. "I am still trying." she needed to find a way to help them all stay together. She did what she was naturally good at. She started to sing a soothing song.

rawsha: -she looked around at them all, then those blue eyes fall on Luna...she watched her..she didnt know or care she had a split personality, the young lupe was now getting irritated- "Luna...why dont you wolf up.." -she was four years old and had been through alot in her short life and it just sort of slipped out...wolf meaning grow-

Luna Felblade: *Luna starts to fight AJ.* "Help Me Mommy."

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius wasn't breaking easily, though. It was going to take a lot for her to be broken.

Ammy Spiritor: She just kept singing, going from soothing to encouraging songs. She didn't have her magic, but she hoped her voice would help. The rest of the camp sounded like it was growing still and quiet.

Luna Felblade: *Luna pushed AJ away and listens to her moms singing.* "Mommy, I wanna go home."

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie sniffled and just sat there quietly. She listened to Ammy's singing and she felt somewhat better. Picking up a blanket she wrapped it around herself nad lied down on her side curling up on the ground.

Ammy Spiritor: "So do I." Ammy said softly. "Fleety is all alone."

rawsha: -she turned over and pulled the blanket around herself again putting her paws under her head she looks up toward the sky and tries to plock things out, she would close her eyes and fall to sleep..she was going to need her rest-

Luna Felblade: *Luna finds a pebble and throws it at where she thing Rawsha was*

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy stayed up keeping watch over them all. She felt this whole mess was her fault and would protect them all somehow.

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius sighed again and lied there. Captured once again. She tried to hum along with Ammy's tune.

rawsha: -she snarls out as she was about to drift off to sleep, feeling the pebble plink off her jacket hood, but she would drift off to sleep-

Luna Felblade: *Luna soon fell asleep*

Vixie Rivergem: Soon Vixie would fall asleep from Ammy's singing. It was hard to go to sleep, but she did anyways.

Ammy Spiritor: She would just keep singing and eventually she'd be the last one to nod off.

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius fell asleep eventually, too. Even though she was irritated out the fur.

The Den:

Vuusoolta Wolf: Vuu was in his living room staring at maps looking at the battle reports that came in.

Iimiidiina: Stepping out of Between, Valla and Iimii appear in front of the Alpha's Compound. Iimii dismounts him and knocks on the door.

A page opens the door and admits Iimiidiina in and leads him to Vuu.

Iimiidiina: "Brother," Iimii says simply as he is taken to Vuu.

Vuusoolta Wolf: Vuu looked up from the maps. "Yes, Iimii?"

Iimiidiina: He dove straight into it. "Ammy has been captured."

Vuusoolta Wolf: A look at Iimii as if he misunderstood. "Captured?"

Iimiidiina: "Yes. Ammy, with several others, have been captured and I think enslaved by Igneous."

Vuusoolta Wolf: "Not good." he looked grim. "The Den Council of Laws just agreed that Ammy and I should rule the Den together. That means one of our leaders is in captivity."

Iimiidiina: "Yes... Alpha, we can't just let her waste away in there. We have to get her out. I saw a vision. He's going to use her as a weapon, just as she was used in the Old Country."

Vuusoolta Wolf: That made Vuu look a bit old. "I already have the Den army locked with Igneous' army."

Iimiidiina: "You know my wand and Valla's teeth are at the ready. We'll bust her out and jump Between to safety." Of course, he knew already that that plan was far to simple to work out.

Vuusoolta Wolf: "Do you know where they are though? Teleport's only work reliably if you know where your target is." Vuu cautioned.

Iimiidiina: "No... But you do. You have sentries all over the place. I've heard them at night when Valla and I walk under the moon together."

Vuusoolta Wolf: In the Glen, yes. The outback is vast. Look at this map." he indicates only a quarter of the map is known and nothing beyond the front lines.

Iimiidiina: "Well, let's think here." He pools over the map. Valla watches through his eyes. "If I wanted to hide an army, where would I put it? It would have to be concealed. With many trees for fires. But the clearing would have to be large enough for the camp center."

Iimiidiina: "What about here?" He points at a large forested section of the map. I could go out there and investigate myself, but I can't Shadow-bend yet."

Vuusoolta Wolf: "Maybe." he tapped his muzzle thoughtfully. "Wish I knew where father went. He was a good scout in the old days."

Iimiidiina: "Shi's a child, and a target. We can't rely on hir. It's just the two of us. But... maybe there's one more."

Vuusoolta Wolf: "Who?"

Iimiidiina: "There's a creature... who has taken up residence in the forest surrounding the Glen. An Eldrazi Titan. He's a master illusionist, and I have seen his power firsthand. If what I know about his people is right, I think he might abandon his hatred for our people and jump on the opportunity to... kill some goblins..." This was a huge risk, and his voice betrayed it.

Vuusoolta Wolf: A look to Iimiidiina. "This is a risky move."

Iimiidiina: "I know. He's evil, dreadfully evil. He has no respect whatsoever for anybody, he's arrogant in his power, and I think he has every right to be. He's a terrifying figure. But if what I gleaned from Vixie and Mirius and Ammy is accurate... he enjoys a good challenge, and I know for a fact he admires Ammy for the 'play' that she provides for him. But you are right. It is a huge risk. I don't even know if I want to do this."

Vuusoolta Wolf: "How well do you know this Titan? And why is he angry with our race?"

Iimiidiina: "I've only encountered him once. He was massive. He attacked Vixie, and before her he attacked Ammy and Mirius. I don't know why he hates us. But, in truth, he's Eldrazi. Eldrazi are plane-devourers. They travel from realm to realm and feed on the life and magical energies of that plane until there is nothing left. And, like I said, I have seen his power firsthand. He might be able to tell us something."

Vuusoolta Wolf: Vuu looked at Iimii for a long moment. "You realize you are risking your life and your dragons to speak to this thing."

Iimiidiina: "I know. It's a huge risk. But he was blasted with a displacement spell. I saw this with my own eyes as well. He shouldn't be physically manifested yet."

Vuusoolta Wolf: Vuu turned his back on Iimii and looked out the window taking deep breaths weighing out things.

Vuusoolta Wolf: "How did you know of Ammy's capture Iimii?"

Iimiidiina: "Mogriil went to Lily, asking for assistance. Lily told Marishka, who as you know is my girlfriend. I scried them to confirm the truth of their words."

Vuusoolta Wolf: "Mogriil told your Mari? How is he tied to this?" concern in his voice.

Iimiidiina: "I guess he was there during the capture. I know Vixie has made some moves on him, and he on the other paw. But that's all I can really say."

Vuusoolta Wolf: He took this all in and something made him grin. "I see. Mogriil has something precious in all of this." Another thought. "Has Lene been told?"

Iimiidiina: "Nay, I haven't said anything to her. But that doesn't neccessarily mean she hasn't heard."

Vuusoolta Wolf: "Alright." he closed his eyes. "Your mother is going to kill me if you are hurt." he moved to the table and pulled out a head set that used both radio and soul gem magic for communication. "Take this and wear it. All of the military leaders are keeping in contact with me here via these headsets."

Iimiidiina: He nods, then takes the head set. "I won't go to the Eldrazi immediately. I have a couple other options I'm considering. The biggest issue, for me, is getting inside the camp without notice. That means I won't be able to bring Valla or Hephaestus in. That'll just leave me with Flame for protection, and since he IS me, it's a big risk."

Vuusoolta Wolf: "You do realize Igneous is a fire elementalist like you." Vuu said. He pulled out a tome recently retrieved from the Den Library. He opened the section to Known Generals of the Spiritor war.

Iimiidiina: "He is?" That caught him off guard.

Vuusoolta Wolf: "Yes. His main element is fire as well as several others. He is ranked fourth out of the five generals as his mastery on some of the other elements is not as good."

Iimiidiina: "That's... astounding! Almost a blessing. Because I have Bahamut at my back, along with Canis and Lupis. Maybe I could just challenge him."

Vuusoolta Wolf: "Maybe. I am concerned with something Ammy told me the night she came here. He's allied with her twin Amaretto and the Ebony Knight. You may have others to deal with Iimii."

Iimiidiina: "I'm not afraid of the Ebony Knight. I've held my own against him, and wherever he shows up, Canis and Lupis are sure to follow. Amaretto, I don't worry about either. I can just drive her back with holy magic."

Vuusoolta Wolf: "Throwing around magic like it's water is not a sound strategy Iimiidiina. Even Loaa have limits. I would plan some tactics if I were you just in case."

Iimiidiina: He thinks carefully, then perks. "Mary! She's a Priestess from Draconia! She can hold off Amaretto while I challenge Igneous."

Vuusoolta Wolf: He nods. "Or, ask her for charms. Don't overlook the small things that can give you an edge."

Iimiidiina: "I will! Absolutely! Okay, but that's in the future. First things first. We need to know the campsite, and we need to know where it is. Without detection. We can't just waltz around in there. They'll move."

Vuusoolta Wolf: "Indeed." he looked over the map again. "Maybe I should send your sister out on recon as well since she has a dragon as well."

Iimiidiina: "Dragons attract attention. Unneeded attention. Here's the problem at paw, brother. We can't just know where the camp is. We need accurate depictions of where they are keeping the slaves, where they might be holding weapons and supplies. About how many of them there actually are."

Vuusoolta Wolf: "Indeed."

Iimiidiina: "Now, I could talk to this gypsy witch who is a friend of Ammy's. She might be able to lend me something that could make me invisible."

Suukaa: An alaskan husky trotted up to the guardian forest and wuffled to be let in. The wuudrii mage allowed her entry to the Den. She trotted for the Den Alpha's house. She'd been here a few times and figured the alpha would like to know intel before mogriil did. A scratch at the back door of the Alpha's house.

Iimiidiina: "What the Fen?" He looks over, confused.

Vuusoolta Wolf: Vuu nodded thinking and heard the scratching. He moved to the door and opened it seeing the husky. He let it in.

Suukaa: Suukaa walked right in and in a blink shifted to a short 4 foot human. "Alphrans." she bowed her head.

Iimiidiina: "Brother, what is this? Whoa!"

Vuusoolta Wolf: "Suukaa." he nodded as well. "What brings a rare visit from you here?" To Iimiidiina. "This is Suukaa. She is a Lunarnan. Distant cousin of Lupinossai."

Iimiidiina: "Pleasure to meet you, my Lady." He offers a paw.

Suukaa: She didn't take the paw. Suukaa had a thing about touching. "I came with information. One name Mogriil asked me scent out two captives. I have found them."

Iimiidiina: "Would they happen to be Ammy and Vixie," he asks as the paw drops.

Vuusoolta Wolf: "Good news then. Where." he points to the map.

Suukaa: "The one I find is Vixie and a lycan. A few more were with them. This Ammy I know not of." she moved to the map and looked at it studying it for a mometn.

Iimiidiina: Close enough. He follows her to the map and looks down at it. "You found their camp?"

Vuusoolta Wolf: Vuu watched her.

Suukaa: "It is hard to say. Paper is not the same as the trail, the scent, and the feel of the hunt." a slow pause. "Here." she gestured in a generally large area of desert plane in front of the forest area. "Many troops. Many slaves."

Iimiidiina: "A desert. Interesting choice for a campsite. How many troops, do you think?"

Suukaa: "Not to count. Only to smell and find. I have found them. I will go now to tell Mogriil, and his ally Garnet. They have a dragon Xan working for them as well. Good night Alphrans." she sifted back to husky form in a blink and trotted out the back door that was left open.

Iimiidiina: He looks at Vuu. "Well, that's one issue dealt with. So now what?"

Vuusoolta Wolf: "Go speak with your potential Ally. I will put out a reward that those bringing ammy and the others to the den alive will pay well as she is now co-Alphrans of the Den." he leaned on the table closing his eyes. He hasn't been sleeping much with everything going on.

Iimiidiina: "And when should I challenge him?" In truth, his blood boiled hot. He wanted to get a piece of Igneous and help his Mom and friends.

Vuusoolta Wolf: "It would be safer if you didn't, but if you must, it should be when we can shatter his army and cause them to run. He will have less barriers in the way by then."

Iimiidiina: "Very well. I will assemble allies. If it comes to using the Eldrazi, I'll let you know how it went."

Vuusoolta Wolf: "Very well. Be careful Iimii. Dying isn't permanent for our kind, but it's painful and disorienting as hell."

Iimiidiina: "I will be. Thank you, brother." He pats the Alphrans shoulder as he heads out.

Vuusoolta Wolf: Vuu went back to the map and marked out where Suukaa indicated. He was starting to find ways to move the Den army for better effect.

First shades of twilight began to fall on the camp. The troops were enjoying the cooling off from another hot day of battles in the sun. Most of the patrols were back at base eating, though the frontlines were still held. Mirius, once again has been sent out on a mission. This one was to find and kill a field commander on the front lines. Igneous was in a large tent that was errected after the kindappings and spelled for keeping noise in. Vixie, Luna, and Ammy would be in the big tent and Rawsha would be somewhere nearby doing chores.

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy was tied to a metal chair that was hooked to wires and the room smelled slightly of singed fur and ozone. Her eyes were closed and she was breathing hard.

N.P.C.: A gnome fiddled with the controls of an ugly looking machine that sparked. "It's no good Igneous. The machine will short out if I use anymore voltage on her. Besides, you want her alive yes?" the gnome asked gazing at Ammy with thick glasses.

Luna Felblade: *Luna wasnt that far from Ammy, but just out of She is curled in a ball and whimpering softly. Her dark fur hid the forming bruises on her skin.*

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie was sitting on her knees by Igneous, frowning. Her eyes were looking down to the ground very unhappy. She didn't like seeing Ammy or anyone being tortured. It was becoming a bit too much for her.

Igneous: "Pitty. I enjoy listening to her scream. You may leave and take that thing with you." Igneous ordered and nodded at the torture machine. He took two steps forward and leaned in to look at Ammy. "Wake up." he growled.

rawsha: -Rawsha had been doing chores, earlier she haw washed clothes for a few of the drow, since they had been taken she had taken to causing problems for a few of the men....some had probably caught on that it was her but others not...she was now taking the clean clothes back to tents -

Luna Felblade: *Luna looks up as Igneous growled at her mom. She weakly gets some water from the air and throws it at him. She still didnt have her voice back though.*

Ammy Spiritor: Golden eyes cracked open. She was doing her best to keep her anger shoved down inside, hiding her emerald eyes that would herald the change in her mood. A glance up at Igneous and she simple spat in his face.

Igneous: Igneous wiped the spit from his muzzle and rounded on Luna. "You are still a problem." he struck at her with a fist.

Luna Felblade: *Luna yelps and tries to slash at Igneous with her claws. Her eyes held false bravery.*

N.P.C.: The drow troops followed Mirius. Her mission was simple today. A group of Den troops had split from the front lines and were trying to use the forest to get to the rear of Igneous' army. Her mission was to find the group and kill them all. No prisoners this time.

Vixie Rivergem: Winced at hearing and watching Igneous. Vixie softly whimpered at thinking of how bad things were getting. She looked at her dress and noticed it has been getting a little dirty and so was her fur. She tried focusing on all that to help ease her mind. Vixie didn't like staying dirty.

N.P.C.: A few of the troops at base tended to keep away from Rawsha hearing rumors of the drow she stabbed and killed. Only a few pesky humans were dumb enough to keep it up. One of them, a short man of 5ft was staring at Rawsha with a creepy desire on his face. He was fancying just what might she be like in his tent.

Igneous: He would bat aside her attempt and grabbed for her throat.

Luna Felblade: *Luna gasps and tries to kick at Igneous. Slowly the brave look in her eyes was changed to fear as she tried to breath. She tries to call for her mom, but her voice just isnt there*

Ammy Spiritor: "Leave my daughter alone Igneous. She's not a part of any of this." she croaked out.

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius walked slowly grumbling inaudible words to herself while leading the drow troops. She held that stupid rifle she hated and was given in her paws. Mirius had her orders, though, and she was going to do them to placate Igneous for now. He was really starting to get on her nerves.

rawsha: -she had fresh blankets she was bringing back to the tents..each cot would get a clean blanket..and she knew of them were to busy or were staying away from her...she went about cleaning up most of the tents, be coming used to cleaning up after them. her paws where rougher now as she had some blisters from working but she went on about doing it-

N.P.C.: The group Mirius searched for were marching through the forest as quietly as possible. They were travelling light, had on leather armor, and all carried crossbows, short swords, and a few had pistols on them. Among them was a large Erthrii that was the commander of this little tactic. He was wearing full plate and walked as if it didn't bother him at all. A huge sword was on his waist.

Igneous: "You are a pathetic Lycan." he squeezed her throat. "You're weak, useless, and you trusted a Spiritor to love you?" he growled.

Luna Felblade: * Luna gasped and thrashed. She got some of her voice bzck* "Mommy will always love me."

Vixie Rivergem: "Please don't kill her, Igneous. She's done no wrong." She said very softly with fear in her voice. Vixie was trying to convince him some.

Igneous: He looked back at Ammy for a long moment and would force Luna to look at Ammy. "If she loved you, she'd obey me and be my weapon again. But no, she resists. She doesn't care about you at all. She'd rather play hero and let you suffer."

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius didn't see any enemies yet, but she was being wary and slow as well. "Any of ye let me know if ye see anythin' suspicious...." she said in a low voice back to her troops.

Luna Felblade: "Mommy loves me. Right mommy?" *Luna said softly. She tried not to think that Igneous might be right*

Ammy Spiritor: "I love you sweety. I really do." her voice was hoarse from screaming and no water.

Igneous: "If you love her, swear loyalty to me and become the Mage Weapon you are meant to be."

rawsha: -Rawsha walked into the tent that usually had a human men in it, had she missed seeing him she shrugs and moves inside putting a fresh blanket on each of the cots and picking up trash and such as she went, like all the others she made sure they had what they needed-

Luna Felblade: "Mommy dont listen to him. He is bad." *Luna begged her mom*

N.P.C.: The man she ignored was a mistake. He decided he wanted to see how exotic Rawsha was and grabbed for her.

N.P.C.: One of the drow in Mirius' company made a whistle letting Mirius know he's found or heard something ahead.

Ammy Spiritor: "I..." she said for a moment and went silent. She didn't want Luna harmed anymore but she couldn't, wouldn't let herself willingly be made into a weapon again. The deaths of the people in Lupinoss at her paws still haunted her. But could she really say no to Luna?

Vixie Rivergem: wanted to do something to help stop this madness, but she was so useless. She couldn't do anything to help. A few tears rolled down her cheeks. Maybe she should think about what that Airii said about stabbing Igneous in the back with a knife.

rawsha: -she turned around quickly as she was grabbed at, she had felt him as she left the cot after putting the blanket down,. the young lupe blinked and those deep-sea blue eyes went wide, but then she remembered the other night and watched him as she tried to pull away- "ye better not touch the help..sir" -that braveness back in her-

Blizzard Shimmerscale: ::Slipping through the forest, still trying to avoid the storm, ice blue eyes were kept upon the ground.::

Igneous: "You see. If she really loved you she would have said yes by now. Ammy doesn't care about you Luna. She only cares about herself."

Luna Felblade: *LUna whimpers, uncertainty and fear in her eyes. She tried to block out her other voices in her head who where areeing with Igneous*

N.P.C.: "Or what. You'll struggle? Who's going to care about me having my ways with a serving wench." he tried to pull her close, his brown eyes alight with lust and nasty desires.

Ammy Spiritor: "Luna I love you...." she whimpered and whined feeling torn now. "I... I... can't be your weapon Igneous. I swore to never help a Spiritor fight fellow Lupinossai ever." she hung her head feeling she had doomed her adopted daughter.

N.P.C.: A lone lupe scout from the approaching part was slinking through the bushes and snapped a twig by accident. He was 30 feet from Mirius' group.

Mirius Pojoris: She heard the whistle and nodded. Mirius lifted readied her considered useless rifle. She would look through the scope to search ahead to find what was out there.

Blizzard Shimmerscale: ::Sensitive ears twitched at the snapping sound of the twig.:;

rawsha: -Rawsha blinks as the human male pulled her to him she tried to get her paws on him ..as if to push him away....she whimpered out- "dun touch me or you be sorry" -she was struggling...or acting like she was trying to push him away-

Igneous: "A mother would have done anything for her child. Rawsha's mom is out fighting for me to keep her safe. Ammy doesn't love you, but, I can love you like a father and make you happy if you will serve me."

Mirius Pojoris: Then she spotted the scout through her scope. She slowed to a stop and held up her paw to tell the drow to stop with her. "I need an archer. Take out that scout silently." There was no way she was going to use her loud inaccurate rifle.

N.P.C.: The male human just laughed. "I like it when they fight." he was trying to tear her clothing off.

Luna Felblade: * Luna looks confused and scared. Her stomach let out a fierce growl for food*

N.P.C.: A drow to her right nodded and nocked an arrow firing it at the scout.

rawsha: -she growled and those deep-sea blue eyes would glimmer some as she stuggled..her maroon shirt ripped a bit and she laid a paw on him and electric energy went through him it was enough to burn skin and if he was wearing any metal for it to melt- "i said, dun touch me!"

N.P.C.: The lupe scout grunted as he was hit in the chest. He turned and ran as fast as the adrenaline and shock of being wound would let him. He had to tell his commander he found the enemy. His life blood poured out quickly and he feel lifeless to the forest floor fifty feet away deep in the trees and bushes.

Blizzard Shimmerscale: ::Pausing, just for a moment before slinking closer, moving through the trees.:;

N.P.C.: The human male screamed and cursed at her letting Rawsha go. "You little bitch!" he grabbed for a heavy stone mace and was coming after her.

Ammy Spiritor: "Igneous, don't toy with her. Please. Don't toy with her." Ammy was watching all of her hard work with Luna falling apart. Luna was one of her reasons of having hope of getting out of here. Should she give into Igneous?"

rawsha: -she watched him and moved around the cot inside the tent, she was looking around for the way out..which she would back toward-

N.P.C.: He waved that mace at her following her. He was in the mind to follow Rawsha no matter where she went. The male would be happy having fun with a corpse as much as a living body.

Mirius Pojoris: Unaware that there was even a dragon nearby, she saw where that scout was running to. Mirius pointed in the direction to move and she started leading them into that direction. Her movements were slower and more careful. Her eyes cautiously looked around for any more enemy troops.

Vixie Rivergem: "Sir, may I talk with Ammy and Luna personally?" she askd Igneous quietly.

Igneous: "What do you say Luna? You sound hungry. I can feed you, give you nice clothing, let you sit with Vixie and play. I'll even get you anything you want. Give you a warm bed." he touched Luna with a free paw. A glance to Vixie for a moment. "I don't think so my sugar cookie."

Blizzard Shimmerscale: ::Nostrils twitched, then a rumble given.::

N.P.C.: A few feet from the scout the first troops were emerging. One tripped on the dead scout and when the lupe saw the arrow of drow make howled the alarm out.

rawsha: -she looked up at him tripped up over the flap of the tent as she moved out into the night..she scrurried back trying to get to her feet-

Luna Felblade: *Luna looks close to breaking. She wanted food and to play with toys. Her stomach growls again*

N.P.C.: "Come here doggy." he growled at Rawsha swinging the mace at her, trying to toy with her.

Vixie Rivergem: She frowned at hearing that. Vixie looked to Ammy with sad and pleading look. Maybe if everyone just did what Igneous wanted no one would get hurt and they would be rescued soon enough.

Igneous: He was close to Luna's muzzle with his own again. "All you have to say is 'yes', Luna. One simple word and I'll make your fears go away. I may even make you my own daughter."

rawsha: -Rawsha growls at him and tumbles out of the way of the swing of the mace, she raises a paw and casts a line of fire toward him as she get to her feet and starts to run down the alleyway between tents-

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy couldn't stand hearing Igneous. He was lying. Lying out of that foul muzzle of his. She tried to resist her binding making the ropes slick with some blood. "Don't listent to him Luna. Don't listen to him! He won't make you his daughter. Do you just want to be slave again and not be able to do what you want?" she forced her muzzle to work.

Luna Felblade: *Luna looks on the verge of saying yes. She looks at Ammy and whimpers in fear*

Mirius Pojoris: She swore at hearing the alarm. Mirius looked back to them and would order half of them to go at them from the front and the others from the side as quickly as possible. Mirius would move with the group that was making the frontal attack. She would fire a shot at the torso of the Lupinossai who howled in alarm. Aiming for the head was a smaller target and that was a bad idea with an innacurate rifle.

N.P.C.: The male human howled as his face and arm was burned and his clothing caught on fire. He started to run for Rawsha, his whole body on fire and his mind in pain. A tent or two too close to him started to catch on fire.

Blizzard Shimmerscale: ::Following the scent of blood now, normally she didn't eat people, but when one was hungry..::

N.P.C.: The holwing lupe screamed in pain as he was shot in the chest. 15 lupe soldiers were now charging forward seeing Mirius and her group. Swords and crowsbows drawn. The drows obeyed Mirius' orders and the group split into two leaving Rawsha with 15 drow in the front and 10 slipping off to the side to rain death on the flanks of the lupe group.

Blizzard Shimmerscale: ::Finally making it to the fallen soldier, nostrils twitched, and she nudged the body of course, making sure first it was officially dead.;;

Iimiidiina: Iimii was in the woods that were nearby the camp, trying to contact Canis. He was alone this time, as he felt ready to attempt an infiltration to the camp. Don't ask how he snuck by--he has had much experience sneaking past the guards in the Den when he wandered about after hours. Why was he trying to contact Canis? Well, she was reportedly mad at him. Might as well try to make peace if this expedition failed. This could be his last shot.

rawsha: -she would turn and see him go up in flame and then start after her again, she saw the tents catching and blinks..she lifted her paws and let a magic missle loose at the male and kept backing up- "told you not to touch me"

Mirius Pojoris: "Don't rush them! Take cover and slowly gain ground!" Mirius yelled out. Quickly she went to hide behind a tree as she would ready the gun again. Don't want to be hit by an arrow when trying to deal with a worse than decent rifle.

Iimiidiina: "Canis," he calls out at a whisper, holding the orb in his paw.

Igneous: "Oh, I think I can take care of her." he grinned cruelly at Ammy, then he spoke something. "Haani'is aashdaamo." something shadowy flew over to Ammy and touched her.

Blizzard Shimmerscale: ::The body didn't seem to move, obviously the arrow had seen to that. Serpentine neck lifted, and twisted, scenting the air, before lowering her snout back to the fallen, making use of the meat there.:;

Luna Felblade: "Will mopmmy be safe?" *Luna asks. Her tone says that she is close to giving up*

N.P.C.: The drow all nodded and took cover among the trees and knocked arrows firing into the charging Lupes.

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy heard the words of a spell and gasped as something touched her mind. She felt icey cold then nothing more as she watched Igneous talking ot Luna.

Mirius Pojoris: The rifle was jammed after she tried to fire, so she hid behind a tree again and banged on the gun a few times and doing a few other things with it. Her eye caught the sight of a dragon nearby eating the dead scout. That made her pause a moment and stare. "What the...." That certainly wasn't something she would see in most battles.

N.P.C.: Canis was not answering still. In fact, Iimiidiina may feel a hollow void where Canis, Lupis, and Paladine once were, their powers and spells muted and gone.

Blizzard Shimmerscale: ::Ears twitched,, though the promise of a free meal kept her near.:;

N.P.C.: A few of the charging lupes went down. The clink of more charging troops was heard and more screams were made as the second group of drow made their shots count. One Lupe managed to get past the drow frontline with several arrows in him. He tossed something round and metal as he fell. In a second or two an explosion rocked the ground and trees killing two drow and flinging shrapnell everywhere.

Vixie Rivergem: slowly moved onto her feet and crossed her arms. She didn't know what to do and knew she couldn't leave otherwise Igneous would get mad at her.

N.P.C.: The male human fell backwards dead from suffocation by the fire consuming his body. The magic missile hitting him squarely. Other troops were looking out at the commotion and noted the fire. They raised the fire alarm.

Igneous: "Of course, your mother will be safe. She, she looks to be safe." he points to the confused Ammy. He heard the fire alarm at that point. What the devil were his men doing? He left Luna and strolled past Vixie. "Stay here." he growled and left the tent.

Blizzard Shimmerscale: ::Starting as the ground shook, she retreated to the relative safety of the trees, dragging her meal along, No she's not giving it up.::

Mirius Pojoris: She heard the explosion and shrapnel went into the tree she was by. Mirius said a few swears loudly and aimed around the tree. She began to fire shot after shot from the bolt action rifle. The shots would be rather hit or miss since the gun was innacurate.

Iimiidiina: The boy sighs. He tried. Nothing more he can do. The orb goes away, then, in the shelter of the trees, the armored youth shifts into a luscious, very pretty Airi'i female, garbed in a simple tunic that compensated for her wings and white fur everywhere else. Shi checks over hir pseudo-form and nods. Shi could still feel the armor under the form, which was good. Shi might need it. Waving hir hips seductively, shi makes way into the camp, eyes always watching about for any perimeter watchmen.

Luna Felblade: *Luna curls into a ball and starts to mutter to herself.*

Vixie Rivergem: She slowly nodded, but once Igneous would leave the tent she would look back to Ammy. "Ammy." she said quietly. "Maybe you should do what he says...."

rawsha: -she looked around as the fire calls went up, she had more dirt in her fur and her shirt was ripped apart she held it closed, she had left her jacket somewhere, she stood looking over the burnt remains of the human..the smoke was thick around her..she wanted to make sure he wasnt going to get back up..she kicked his hand with a foot-

N.P.C.: Two more lupes feel dead to Mirius as the drow now took up scimitars, the enemy was too close. in the trees though, the sound of a huge lupe in armor was heard moving for them.

N.P.C.: The body gasped one final gasp when Rawsha kicked it and went silent. The others were all grabbing buckes of water or downing tents to stop the fire.

Mirius Pojoris: They were too close for the use of a rifle now. Instead of reloading she would come around the tree to use the rifle as a melee weapon. She should have put a bayonett on the end. Mirius charged after a nearby solider with her rifle in both paws.

Blizzard Shimmerscale: ::Ice blues peered back out of the trees, though the dragon wouldn't show, not yet, she had to be sure it was safe enough first.:;

Ammy Spiritor: She looked over to Vixie for a moment, feeling odd and dazed. To her mind she saw herself loose from her bindings now, and when looked around, Luna and Vixie were gone from her mind. She heard a fire alarm. Maybe she could escaped and fidn the others?

Igneous: Igneous saw several tents ablaze now. "What in the name of Fen is going on out here? Are you all so inept that you set the tents on fire!" he growled.

Vixie Rivergem: "Ammy?" She moved up to Ammy and put her arms on Ammy's shoulders. "Ammy? What's wrong? Are you okay?" Vixie was very worried now.

N.P.C.: A lupe closed with mirius and swung a nasty long sword her way.

N.P.C.: Two drow on duty spotted the loose Airii. She didn't have a collar on and looked like something the master may want. "You! Stop." said one drow. The other had his bow knocked with two arrows in place.

Mirius Pojoris: Seeing the sword swung at her she held up the rifle so it would block the sword attack. At the sametime she would go for a kick to the gut to knock the air out of the soldier.

Blizzard Shimmerscale: ::Sliiinking out, she slid upto another fallen form, sniffing the body, before dragging it back into the tree line.:;

rawsha: -seeing he was dead, she walked out into the walk way and looked around her trying to stay out of the way of the men trying to put out the fires, she looked back at the dead human...this was number two..she her long sandybrown hair with brindle tips hanging down loose she, looked up hearing Igneous yelling, she looked at her hands, she had killed by magic-

Iimiidiina: Shi stops and turns to face the drow. And shi smiles very prettily at them. Time to play. Shi raises hir paws and shows they are empty.

Luna Felblade: *Luna continues to whimper and mutter to herself.*

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy didn't feel the touch. In her mind she left the tent looking for the others. There were troop running around putting out fires. Another look around and she saw Ingeous with his back to her. Her eyes flashed green and ran for the Lupe summoning a rapier and stabbing him in the back where his heart should be. Igneous howled and spun slowly grabbing Ammy taking the sword from her paw. "Ammy, Ammy. Why did you stab me mom? Why did you hurt Luna? Why are you killing Luna?" Igneous slumped to the ground but it wasn't him but Luna there lying in her own blood, dead. Ammy's eyes widened. "Luna? Luna!" she knelt pulling the body to her. "Luna? You can't be dead Luna." she cried. To the others, Ammy was just staring in a daze.

Blizzard Shimmerscale: One, then two more disappeared into the forest. The dragon eatting until she was sated.:;

N.P.C.: The drow got close to the Airii. "You don't have a collar." he sneered and moved to grab her. "You're our prisoner now."

Luna Felblade: *Luna becomes still and raises her head. She looks around and spots Vixie. SHe clears her throat to get Vixie's attention*

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie whimpered then left Ammy there. She moved to Luna and kneeled down to Luna. "Luna, I will try to take care of you the best I can if you are around Igneous and I. Sometimes I can convince a better side of him." she pleaded and worried for Luna, too.

N.P.C.: The soldier mirius kicked went down from the blow gasping for air. Another Lupe, with a pistol fired at Mirius. The huge sounding Erthrii was emerging from the trees. 9 ft tall and decked in full plate, a wicked Wolf's Angel in one paw.

Luna Felblade: " Where is he? Igneous promised me food." *She had given in. Her stomacj grumbles again*

Igneous: Igneous spotted Rawsha. "You. What happened?"

Vixie Rivergem: "He'll be back shortly. Don't worry." Vixie would go to hug Luna to comfort her.

Luna Felblade: *luna lets Vixie hug her* "Can we play?"

Iimiidiina: Shi let's the drow touch her, then caresses his face with hir paws, framing them between white fingers. And shi kissed him deeply. Shi pulls back after a lingering second, hir face mere inches from his. "I'll do anything you say," shi says in a sultry voice.

Blizzard Shimmerscale: ::Nostrils twitched, though the dragon remained within the trees, watching the flames now.:;

rawsha: -she used a bit of air magic to clear the air around her and walked along she needed to get back to work, back to the chores..she saw Igneous there looking at the men trying to put the fires out..- "i'm sorry master, another man attacked me...i.killed him...hes back there " -she pointed to the dead body between two tents-

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius pulls out her knife and goe sto stab the downed Lupe in the chest. She wasn't so aware of that Erthrii commander coming closer at the moment.

Iimiidiina: Already, the glamour was at work.

Igneous: "Another attacked you. How did you kill him?"

Vixie Rivergem: "Maybe. We have to wait for Igneous to come back so you can tell him. Okay?"

rawsha: -those deep blue eyes looking up at him- "m..magic sir...fire...and energy"

Luna Felblade: "Ok." *Luna had her emotionless mask back on once again*

N.P.C.: The drow looked back at his companion. "We could just take this one to the wood with the others. Igneous wont mind one missing would he?" the other drow just grinned and called for a few two ogres, a hobgobblin and two more drow. They were going to have fun with this prisoner. The one holding the Airii slapped a collar around her neck with a thick chain on it.

Igneous: "Did you enjoy it?" he asked with amusement.

rawsha: -she pulled her ripped shirt close to cover herself the night was cool and her short fur, she was slightly chilled,...she thought about what he asked- "i love magic...and well he...he deserved it sir"

Iimiidiina: "Mm. I like it when you play ROUGH." Shi grabbed him and smiled wickedly as the collar was slapped on.

Vixie Rivergem: "I willd do the best I can to have Igneous take it easy on you. And when he lets us we can play and groom each others fur and everything nice. Does that sound good?"

Luna Felblade: "Yes it does. Can I have some food??"

Ammy Spiritor: Soon the body vanished in her arms and Ammy blinked looking for where Luna had gone. She wasn't in the camp anymore but back at the beach house resting after being injured. Luna was walking toward her smiling. *I love you mommy.* Ammy blinked again and looked around. She felt at home, resting and safe, and Luna was dead. "I love you too Luna." Luna would get close to her in her mind and hug Ammy. *I love you mommy, but you killed me. Now you're going to join me.* Luna stabbed Ammy in the back.

Vixie Rivergem: She frowned. "I...I don't know. We have to wait for Igneous to get back. Like I said we have to wait for him to return. I'm sorry." Vixie really did want to feed, but if Igneous caught her feeding Luna it would be very bad for her.

Luna Felblade: *Luna nods and draws in the dirt*

Igneous: "Good." he touched Rawsha's clothing mending it. "You look like you've had a rough night. Come join me at the large tent and I'll get you some food and a warm jacket." he said, ever playing the devious lying son of b***h he was.

Blizzard Shimmerscale: ::Watching from the trees, the dragon was on the move again, this time she had stepped onto a branch, which snapped with a loud Crack.:;

N.P.C.: The lupes that were charging heard the snap and some of the faultered in their charge thinking a new attack was coming. A few more died, shot with arrows in the back. Mirius' split tactic was working. A lupe was lucky enough to stab a drow shoving the drow back hard. The lupe drew it's pistol and fired at Mirius. The lumbering commander swung that wolf's angel and snapped a drows scimitar and slicing the drow and two trees in half.

rawsha: -she nods- "yes master...thank you." -the child watched as he mended her shirt and gave a small smile up at him-

N.P.C.: The drow party that had the Airii were all chuckling. "She likes it rough she says." He pulls on the chain to drag her into the forrest with the group following. The hobgobblin was sharpening up a set of knives as he walked.

Mirius Pojoris: A loud crack of a branch breaking? That caught her attention and she looked back. A bad mistake that was. A bullet hit her in her right shoulder. She shouted in pain and dropped her rifle.

Igneous: He put a paw on her back and guided her to the big tent where Vixie and Luna was. Entering he looked at the dazed ammy and grinned noting the tiny twitches. His nightmare spell was working beautifully. He should have used it sooner.

rawsha: -the child had been up every morning before dawn and it was late nearly evernight she was aloud to eat or sleep and she had been doing everything she was told plus causing trouble for some of the men at times..and the two she had killed...she would go with Igneous to the tent-

Luna Felblade: "Welcome back sir." *Luna says as she see's Igneous return*

Iimiidiina: All a part of the plan. Shi is led along, almost seeming a bit too willing. But, shi had studied hir role well. The rewards will come with time. Shi sees the goblin sharpening up some knives, but is not bothered by that. Hir underarmor should protect hir from bodily harm.

Vixie Rivergem: Seeing Igneous come back into the tent she would stop hugging Luna and back away slowly. Vixie stayed silent

Blizzard Shimmerscale: ::Snorting she trotted closer, still keeping within the relative safety of the trees. Fire after all kept her at bay.:;

Ammy Spiritor: She howled in pain in her mind feelin Luna stab her in the back. She rolled off the couch panting in pain. "Luna. I didn't mean to kill you. You were Igneous. You can't be dead. You are here." she said in confusion. Luna just grinned at her more. *Mommy is so stupid. I serve Igneous now and I will kill you if you dont serve him." Luna picked up a fire poker determined to beat Ammy to death with it.

Iimiidiina: The glamour behind this relatively simple illusion was laid on thick as shi was taken into the grove. Perhaps the moonlight was striking hir body in just the right way, making it angelic and glowing.

rawsha: -she saw Vixie, Luna and Ammy there as she came inside with him, she dusted dirt out of her fur and was glad to be out of the wind, she looked up at Igneous after looking around-

N.P.C.: One of the drow in the group paused a moment. "Wait a minute. Every lupe we've caught has fought us. This doesn't seem right guys." he pulled out a gem of true seeing and saw through Iimiidiina's spell. "He's a spy!" The drow shouted drawing his scimitar. The other drow was chanting a spell.

Iimiidiina: Caught. The illusion breaks, and the revealed Iimii draws his wand. "Fiendfyre!" The white-fire dragon lurches out of the wand, roasting all in its path.

N.P.C.: The lupe that fired the gun died by the drow soldier that looked up to Mirius. He put an arrow into the lupes head and pulled back seeing the large lupe. "Sir? Sir! Big one!"

Blizzard Shimmerscale: ::Starting again, a blast of icefire may have erupted from beyond the trees.:;

Iimiidiina: The heat from his body, meanwhile, literally melts the collar off of his neck as he draws his dagger that Carrot gave him and stabs it into the femoral artery of the one closest to him. Even if it missed, the tooth would cause rapid, nasty infection.

Iimiidiina: It did come from a decaying corpse-eater, after all.

N.P.C.: The drow holding iimii and the one who pulled the scimitar ashed. The hobgoblin ran into the forest on fire. But the ogres were flame retardent it seems and they slammed clubs at Iimiidiina. The other drow cast his spell on Iimii as he was stabbed in the leg. He screamed. The spell was a mind affect spell that would bore into the lupes mind and shields to corrupt his thoughts and confuse him. The drow pulled a wicked, poisoned dagger and lunged for Iimii's throat.

Igneous: "You all look hungry." Igneous said gently. He poked his head out of the tent. "Wenches, food and drink in this tent now!" he barked then returned to current company. "So, Luna. Do you want be loyal to me?" he was walking slowly around Ammy like a shark.

Luna Felblade: "Yes sir. Luna is a good girl." *She bows before Igneous*

Iimiidiina: Sometimes, it pays to be a telepath, and a Foxingale. The half-concocted spell spreads off of his defensive barriers like water on pebbles. In other words, no affect. He parries the blow, then leaps back to dodge the ogres and their clubs. Meanwhile, he calls for Valla. ~Valla! I've been caught!~

Blizzard Shimmerscale: ::Slinking closer again after the flames started dying out, wings rustling.:;

Mirius Pojoris: Sir....She never did like being called Sir, but she wasn't exactly so girlie either. Guess it fitted. Immediatly she looked up and saw the big Erthrii Lupinossai. "He is a big one..." She chuckled and had to ignore the pain even if it hurt a lot. She readied her rifle and aimed for a shot at the big one and went to pull the trigger.

Iimiidiina: The Fiendfyre swoops around for another go, this time aiming for the drows.

N.P.C.: That blast from Blizzard killed two of the rear drow.

N.P.C.: The ogre's swung fro the Iimii again.

Ammy Spiritor: Her drow knocked an arrow as well and would let loose when she fires.

N.P.C.: Her drow knocked an arrow as well and would let loose when she fires.

Blizzard Shimmerscale: ::Perhaps she was curious, sliiiinking closer to the encampment.:;

rawsha: -she watched Igneous, there in the tent..she was tired and hungry but the child stayed quiet, she was thinking about the two men she has killed, the deserved it and she was protecting herslelf...Igneous had healed her after the drow had stabbed her the other night and then tonight...he didnt seem upset with her...she as thinking-

Iimiidiina: By this point, goblins should be mere ashes. White fire is the hottest, after all. Iimii focuses on the pair of ogre's and dodges their slow blows at him with heavy clubs. He sheathes the Hound dagger and draws his pair of blades from his back. Divine blades. Came straight from Bahamut's realm. They gleamed like white fire as the forest blazed, in perfect control, around them.

Valla: Valla had teleported on the edge of the forest. A distance away from the fighting and army. He was looking for Iimii and heard the call. He lumbered into the forest.

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie softly nodded her head when Igneous came in and asked if they were hungry. She just watched Igneous silently wishing he wouldn't be so violent and cruel. Maybe there was some way she could help prevent him from doing rash decisions to her friends, but she couldn't think of what.

Iimiidiina: The Fiendfyre approaches the drow, ready for the roasting like their unfortunate goblin friends.

N.P.C.: More ogres and a few mages were coming to see what the ruckus was at near the camp lines. Seeing the fires and the battle Iimii was doing they started casting binding and null magic spells around the Lupe boy.

Igneous: "Good." he said to Luna. He stopped a moment and listened to the magic flow about him. He heard Iimii's magical beat and something else. Something large, and powerful with a link to Iimiidiina. Oh, this was too good to be true. He noted another dragon way off in the forest too, but the one with the link. He had a cruel mind in place.

Iimiidiina: Iimii felt the drain on his wards and looks over. He sheathes one blade, then unsheathes his wand again, aiming for the nearest mage. "Stupefy!"

N.P.C.: His spell rebounded off the mage coming back at him.

N.P.C.: Servants brought in food and drink for those the in the tent.

Luna Felblade: "Can I have food and play now sir?" *Luna asks excitedly*

Blizzard Shimmerscale: ::She was getting closer, curse her curiosity.:;

Igneous: "Yes, Luna."

Mirius Pojoris: While the rest did their jobs Mirius sat there recovering. She reached over to pick up her knife and sheathed it. Then reloaded her pistol after that. Her eyes darted in differeint directio to make sure she wouldn't get attacked

rawsha: -she would watch the dragon being pinned down to the ground and stood watching queitly-

N.P.C.: The lupes in the forrest were all dead now. Her drow looked about. "I believe our mission is complete." he looked at mirius now. "Again, you're shot in the shoulder?" he laughed a little letting off a little tension. "Want me to heal your wound sir?"

Vixie Rivergem: "Oh dear...." She felt the warm head. After some minutes passed she noticed the dirty bandage. She would slowly take off the bandage. Vixie may have not have expeirence in all these type of things, but she could tell that it was infected. "We will have to tell Igneous about this when he come sback. I'm sure he wouldn't want you to be sick."

Igneous: "Now come Rawsha. Let's get you back inside with the others. Your dragon will be there in the morning."

Valla: Valla wanted to be furious, but his mind was numbed by the orb as he was drug into the enemy camp and staked down next to the other dragon.

rawsha: -she looked at the dragon and grinned then went to her master's side- "yes..master"

Mirius Pojoris: "I think I'm gonna need shoulder armor. my head is more safe than them." she laughed with the Drow. "A healin' would be appreciated. There were no surrenderers?"

Luna Felblade: *Luna nods and focuses on staying awake*

Blizzard Shimmerscale: ::Grunting, thoughit seemed she had company.;

N.P.C.: "No sir. All dead as ordered." he poured more of that green potion on her shoulder.

Igneous: He stepped inside the tent with Rawsha again. "How is everyone doing in here?"

Blizzard Shimmerscale: ::One ice blue eye swivelled towards the other dragon who was being staked at her side.::

rawsha: -she looks at Valla...she remembered seeing him with Iimii before she stopped a moment and looked between the two dragons before she followed after Igneous to keep up with him, she had a grin on her lips as she moved inside the tent with him-

Vixie Rivergem: She rubbed Luna's shoulder. "maybe you should lay dow, sweetie.." Vixie saw Igneous come back in and she spoke. "I think Luna is sick, Sir. And one of her wounds are infected."

Mirius Pojoris: She sighed. "Don't kill 'em all so fast next time. We could always question 'em before their deaths y'know."

Valla: Valla stared at Blizzard with blank eyes. The dragon orb by his head now and Dragon Knights kept him under close watch.

Luna Felblade: *Luna lays dowm and pants softly. The whip would she had gotten upon arrival jad never been properly cleaned, so it had become infected*

Blizzard Shimmerscale: ::She eyed the orb by the other's head, if only she could move.:; Just trying rattled the chains and forced a grunt from her.:;

N.P.C.: "Right boss." he lifted her up. "Let's get going." the troops pulled back from the forest and for camp already under the wards of protection.

Igneous: He knelt by Luna. "Hmm. Looks like someone is ill." he touched her wounds and purified them sending cooling energy through her. "Feeling better Luna?"

Luna Felblade: *Luna relaxs.* "Feels good sir."

Ammy Spiritor: Her darkness faded as she was back sitting in the tent looking at everyone. She blinked her dry stinging eyes, more tears falling.

Vixie Rivergem: She smiled. "Thank you for healing Luna, Sir."

rawsha: -she quietly watches Igneous she moves her paw up to the collar and scratches under it slightly moving it a bit-

Igneous: He could feel his spell finishing on Ammy. "Good, good." he stroked her hair. "I love you Luna, my child. I'll make you my daughter. Will you call me father?"

Mirius Pojoris: After being lifted up she went back to the camp with them. Screw the rifle she was leaving that crap behind. "I'm startin' to hate war...."

Blizzard Shimmerscale: ::To her, the orb looked like a ball, serpentine neck stretching, maybe she could reach..:;

Luna Felblade: "I am thirsty father. Can I have some ice water?"

N.P.C.: The orb hummed noisily. It wasn't attuned to Blizzards color, but it would none the less give off nasty vibes.

Igneous: "Yes, my daughter." he said with false compassion giving her a cool drink of water.

Luna Felblade: *Luna sips the water and smiles. Her fever is breaking, so she should be fire*

Blizzard Shimmerscale: ::Ears flattened and she groaned then, horned head sinking to the ground.:;

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie would smile some. She was happy that Igneous wasn't being cruel right now. "Is there anything I can do for you, Sir?" she asked Igneous.

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy heard Luna call Igneous father. She had hoped she was dreaming, but she wasn't now. She was bound, in pain, and her world just shattered. She lost Luna and she felt Fleety's teeth on her throat. She was alone now. Ammy howled in the tent. A heart wrenching howl and cried were she sat, bowing her head.

Luna Felblade: "Thank you father. Your so kind"

Valla: Valla was out of it for now. He didn't know where he was and oh look, pink elephants were coming to play. He was drooling, his jewel in his forehead dimming under the control.

Blizzard Shimmerscale: ::She on the other hand didn't see pink elephants, though she did once more reach up to claw the iron band around her neck.:;

N.P.C.: The Dragon Knight looked Blizzard up and down. They didn't remember the boss having a second dragon?

Blizzard Shimmerscale: ::Ice blue eyes fell upon the knight then, surely he wasn't guarding her as well?::

Igneous: He looked up at hearing Ammy. He closed his eyes and took in the sweet, sweet sound of someone finally breaking. He laid Luna down and moved over to Ammy. He leaned in close. "I knew I'd break you, Ammy. You're useless as a weapon to me now. Rawsha will take your place."

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy raised her head barely looking at Rawsha with dull, gold eyes.

rawsha: -she looked around the tent and sat down back near where she had sat earlier...her mind was on being an apprientace...and to a powerful mage...the child looked down at the blisters on her hands and used a bit of her healing magic to heal them up.-

Mirius Pojoris: "You men did a fine job fightin' tonight. I'm proud at all of ye." she grinned

Igneous: "Yes. Sweet Rawsha want to be my apprentice. Luna is now mine. So is Vixie. You're broken now. No one at that Den wants you now. You're going to be my plaything. A pet, yes. And something to sate my mens desires." he whispered all of this in her ears. "I own you now Ammy. The fabled slave freer is now my slave."

N.P.C.: That Dragon knight wasn't sure himself but he was told to the dragon. Which one though?"

N.P.C.: The drow with Mirius nodded though they weren't happy with loosing their own. "You think Iggy is parading around with his women?"

Blizzard Shimmerscale: ::Maybe.., maybe she could convince the man? ::Nostrils flared and she gave a low groan.:;

Vixie Rivergem: She looked over at Ammy and frowned. Vixie wanted to help her so much. Maybe when Igneous wasn't looking she could at least attempt to talk with Ammy.

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy's cheeks glistened as more tears flowed. She barely reacted to her name now. Her mind had retreated far inside of her.

Igneous: He looked right at Vixie. "Vixie, take off her clothes, clean her up. I'll be back." he walked over to Rawsha then. "Let's go look at your dragon some more while Vixie cleans up Ammy."

Mirius Pojoris: "I woudn't doubt it..." she kept on walking with them back to the camp. Her legs were still hurting, but she could at least walk. "I'm surprised he never had a thing fer me." she chuckled.

rawsha: -she grinned and stood up- "yes sir" -she wanted to see the dragons and would move to walk with him-

N.P.C.: Her drow rubbed his head. "Well, the boss did from what I hear, but something snapped in him. He's been rather odd the last month or two."

Igneous: "Good girl." leaving the tent, he smiled. "Well, looks like I have a dragon as well."

Vixie Rivergem: Thinking of chances this was a perfect opportunity. She would go get a bucket of water and a sponge to help for the cleaning. It wasn't the best thing for cleaning but it was better than nothing. She came back to Ammy's side and kneel down beside her. "Ammy?" she asked for her in a quiet tone again. Her voice always stayed sweet and friendly.

N.P.C.: The dragon knight looked at the groaning Blizzard. He got closer to her.

Blizzard Shimmerscale: ::Another low groan, she could be very convincing surely.::

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy would look at Vixie with a dull, tired, and expressionless gaze. She looked like a beaten puppy.
Mirius Pojoris: She raised a brow in a bit of surprise. "Did? Huh....Well, what's he been doin'?"

N.P.C.: "The boss was making deals all over the place. Someone thinks he may have sold his soul out to some guy named the Ebony Knight."

rawsha: -she looks at the dragons as they go outside and come up to them, she grins- "yes sir..they both are am..azing" -she would look at Valla and Blizzard-

N.P.C.: The Dragon Knight indeed was beeing fooled. He was supposed to watch the dragons and tend them. Which one was simple. The one groaning.

Vixie Rivergem: Slowly she would start to take off Ammy's clothing to show her fur. "Ammy. I am so sorry this all has happened to you. Please don't give up hope. I wish I could do more to help you."

Igneous: "Indeed. You have a lovely blue, and it looks like I have a lovely warrior. You think maybe your master can tame him into doing tricks?"

Mirius Pojoris: "Y'know I had the den wrapped around me fingers until everythin' started gettin' all screwed up. And he didn't even realize that I was gonna cause some fine trouble within that den." Mirius sighed. "This war ain't goin' anywhere."

Valla: Valla tried to blink, even move. He was getting sick of pink elephants. Oh look they're blue now. He could sense the other dragon near him. With all of his might he got his tail to twitch.

rawsha: -she grins some but blinks, she thought for a moment they were dragons after all..- "yes master...but how..dragons welll are powerful things"

N.P.C.: The drow nods. "Your right. I think the boss has someone pulling his strings you know. Something darker out their, which is why I want out when I can."

Blizzard Shimmerscale: ::Blue eyes almost seemed to be pleeding with the knight, just remove the chains, oblivious of course to her new owner standing nearby.:;

Ammy Spiritor: Hearing vixie, more tears streamed. "useless." she whispered. "useless. Fleety hates me." she sat numb in her chair. "Vixie, kill me please."

Mirius Pojoris: "I could always say ye died in battle." she winked to him and smirked.

N.P.C.: "Not leaving without you sir, or that lot of women. Just cruel what he's doing."

Vixie Rivergem: "No, no please don't say that. Fleet loves you. And I won't kill you. You're life has great meaning, Ammy. You've done so much to help so many people." She would weat the sponge and start scrubbing Ammy's fur.

Igneous: Igneous stared at the Dragon Knight. "Not to close. That blue one has fight in it." he walked up to the dragons looking at them. "The way to get beasts to do tricks is to find a treat they like and coax them into behaving." he chuckled.

Vixie Rivergem: wet the sponge*

Ammy Spiritor: "Just a slave." her voice monotone.

Blizzard Shimmerscale: ::Blink, blink, she groaned again, wings still on the ground at her sides.:;

rawsha: -she had never had a pet and nodded hearing her master- " you mean like meat...dragons like meat...dont they?"

Mirius Pojoris: "I've come from a lot of war and even all this is way out of me standards. He's gone too far. And I may know who her talkin' about. Ebony Knight."

Igneous: "Yes, they love meat. Especially meat laced with mind serum." he pulled out a piece of wyvern that had some of the serum on it. He split it in two. "Hear, coax your pet to eat it." he moved to valla. If either dragon eats it, the effect won't be immediate but will build as they eat more laced meat that would lead them to having locked minds and no will of their own.

Vixie Rivergem: "No, you are not just a slave. You saved my life, Ammy. Please, stay with me." She would put the sponge back in the bucket of water and go to hug Ammy. " Soon someone will rescue us. Maybe Mogriil or Vuusoolta or someone. Please don't give up...."

rawsha: -Rawsha takes the meat and moves slowly toward Blizzard..the young lupe offers the meat out on her paw and offers a gently petting to her snout-

Ammy Spiritor: "I..I killed Luna. I left Fleety. Shi tore out my throat." her voice was small, frail.

Blizzard Shimmerscale: ::Petting, that was nice, jaws soon parting to accept the meat.:;

Vixie Rivergem: "No, no you didn't. Luna is still here and alive. And your throat is not torn out." This was going to be hard trying to help Ammy.

rawsha: " Coomaa..good dragon" -she continued to pet the dragon's scales..those deep-sea blue eyes watching Blizzard as she ate the meat-

Blizzard Shimmerscale: ::Swallowing her meal.::

Valla: Valla smelled meat and was hungry. He took the meat not reallizing how fed him. It tasted a little odd, but that orb still clouded his mind.

rawsha: -she pet her a bit more caressing a paw along her scales then backs up and watches her master and valla-

N.P.C.: The drown nodded to Mirius. "Somehow I think this Den he's after is not really some monster he's making it out to be."

Ammy Spiritor: "Where's...Luna?"

Igneous: "Now what will you name your pet, Rawsha?"

rawsha: -she looks up at the moon a moment and blinks she then looks to her master, staying close to him and the dragons, she looks at Igneous then to Blizzard..looking over the dragon a moment-

Vixie Rivergem: She looked Ammy straight in the eyes then motioned her head towards Luna. "She is still here, Ammy. Just look."

Mirius Pojoris: "I've been inside that Den. Studied some of it. Ain't too bad I guess. Could use some improvements. I felt bad her beaten' up their authority figures. They need better trainin'." she chuckled.

Ammy Spiritor: She looked seeing Luna but her mind was afraid that Luna would rise and try to kill her. She trembled where she sat in fear. Ammy closed her eyes tightly.

Blizzard Shimmerscale: ::Obviously the serum was starting to work, she wasn't begging the knight anymore.::

N.P.C.: "Better training you say? Is this Den primitive? Seems the lupes we fight are skilled warriors. A bit antiquated equipment, but deadly enough."

Valla: Valla seemed to not mind the elephants now.

rawsha: "i will call her Lakaa..since shes blue and white"

Igneous: "A wonderful name. As for mine, I shall call him Draas."

Mirius Pojoris: "well, their soliders ain't that bad I'll give ye that. But their police authority could do better honestly...."

rawsha: -she petted Lakaa's snout, reapeating the name to her- "Lakaa....my Lakaa"

N.P.C.: The dragon orb dimmed and went quiet feeling Valla under sway by something else. the dragon knight excused himself and took the orb with him.

Vixie Rivergem: "Ammy. Look at me." she said in a quit and pleading voice. "Please."

Ammy Spiritor: She forced her eyes open and looked at Vixie scared.

Igneous: "Draas, wake up." he commanded.

Valla: His name wasn't Draas. It was valla. Or, was it? His gem swirled in confusion with colors.

Blizzard Shimmerscale: ::Prumming as she was pet, ears perking at the name chosen for her.::

Vixie Rivergem: "I know it is tough, but we can make it through this. I don't know what's going on but at least know I won't betray you. You know I could not even hurt a ant. But please try and stay together. I'll try and convince Igneous to lessen his torture."

Luna Felblade: *Luna whimpers as she starts to wake up aghain*

rawsha: -Rawsha watched her master and his dragon a moment, as she kept the light petting up on her dragon-

Blizzard Shimmerscale: ::Tail twitched as she was pet, well this wasn't so bad.::

Luna Felblade: *Luna sits up and looks around confused* "Where is father?"

Igneous: "Good rawsha. Get the dragon used to it's name. In the morning I shall start your training." he turned to Valla, now Draas and stroked the dragons head noting the lack of wings. "Well now, you're an odd dragon. I wonder what you can do?" he grinned coldly.

Ammy Spiritor: Hearing Luna she cried.

N.P.C.: The drow nodded hearing Mirius and leading her to the mess tent. He even got her some food and drink. He was concerned for his boss who seemed to have vulenerable shoulders.

Vixie Rivergem: "Shh." She stroked Ammy's hair. Then went back to the sponge to get it and start washing Ammy's fur again. "And I'm sure Fleet still loves you, Ammy. You two have been through a lot."

Valla: Valla thrummed a little hearing Draas spoken. Maybe he was Draas?

Luna Felblade: *Luna looks around and spots Ammy and Vixie* "Why are you helping her?"

Mirius Pojoris: Vulnerable shoulders. It was like she might as well run around in nothing but fur and have just bullet proof armor over her shoulders and she'd just be all dandy. She would sit down at a table in the mess tent and nod to her helper. "Thank ye. Get yerself somethin', too." Mirius would eat and drink after sitting down.

rawsha: -Rawsha would look at the dragon she named Lakaa- "you are my pet, my beautiful Lakaa" -her tail wagged happily as she had her pet dragon and she was going to be trained to be a mage-

Blizzard Shimmerscale: ::Still thrumming, seemingly growing accustomed to her new name.::

Ammy Spiritor: "I'll try." she whispered. Her sanity and reality had been broken. "I'll be a good Am-am."

Vixie Rivergem: "I'll see what I can get Igneous to do to put you in a better position here, Ammy. I promise I'll do everything I can for you." Vixie kept on scrubbing Ammy's fur."You still believe I am here with you right?"

Ammy Spiritor: A silent nod.

Mirius Pojoris: "Well, thing about us Soultre types is the more we use magic the more it drains us. So, why drain meself when I can have strengths elsewhere, right?"

Igneous: He roared in pain as the spike struck him in the eye, blood pouring down his cheek. In anger he raked her body with flames of fire, intent on singing the rebellion out of her.

Luna Felblade: *Luna scareams in agony as she is burned.*

N.P.C.: "Sound logic." he sipped his ale looking around at the other troops. "He's a bit late. Can't blame him I guess if he has a bunch of females to be with. Sod."

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie covered her muzzle and her eyes went wide in shock. She turned away to not see the battle as it was becoming too disturbing for her. The blood she could barely stand and just the thought of losing an eye like that sent chills down her spine.

rawsha: -her eyes went wide as she watched, Luna cast and wounded her master...she stood there not moving-

Mirius Pojoris: "We could always go bug him." Mirius snickered.

Igneous: He threw Luna hard out of the tent. Igneous looked hell bent and enraged. His one good eye blazed with fire and he stalked out of the tent after her.

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy whimpered seeing Luna hurt like that. Her eyes were shifting to green slowly. Her paw raised again making another scratching sound on the metal buckle.

Luna Felblade: *Luna lands on her arm wrong and it snaps. She screams in pain as she skids along the dirt. The bone didnt go through the skin*

Vixie Rivergem: hearing the noise she looked back to Ammy. "Ammy, what are you doing?"

N.P.C.: A sentry jumped as a body was flung from the tent to land by his feet. The human guard looked at the poor thing and then saw Igneous. He quickly got out of the way and spread the word. The General was losing it on a slave.

Ammy Spiritor: The scratching was slowly making and alchemy array.

rawsha: -she silently stepped out of the tent , she was interested in what her master would do..she stayed quiet but watched-

Vixie Rivergem: "Ammy." she whispered to her ear. "Ammy, if you take off that collar and use magic something bad might happen....I'll go try convince him or something. Please?"

Igneous: He didn't remove the icecicle from his eyes, his face and muzzle looking horrendous with blood seeping deep into his fur. "I have Ammy now. I don't need you as my daughter now." he wove his paws craftin cruel looking barbs and chains. He was going to flail her, he was that pissed.

Ammy Spiritor: She was panting hard, her eyes nearly full green. The smell of blood and rage was setting her off.

Luna Felblade: *Luna stood her ground. Her golden eyes show no fear as she held her broken arm*

N.P.C.: The drow heard the whispers hitting the mess tent. "Sir, I think Igneous just flipped." he stood.

Igneous: Igneous flicked out the chains to lash at Luna. He was starting to weaken from blood loss but rage kept him going.

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie whimpered. It seemed she couldn't stop Ammy from doing what she was going to do. She hurried out of the tent and went to Igneous, but stayed a few feet back. Vixie was going to try to persuade him."S-sir, please. Luna is just misguided...M-maybe I can change her for you without y-you having the stress?"

Luna Felblade: *Luna screams as the chains hit her. She wriths on the ground*

rawsha: -she blinked , she thought about trying to stop him..but she was conflicted because she had harmed him and he was getting her back but...then she swallowed and thought about her mother and Ammy...she moved up behind Igneous spoke as she touched his arm with her paw- "Pi'iwu'u master please...Pi'iwu'u shes a fool"

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius stood up. "We should probably check it out. C'mon." she would start moving to exit the mess tent with a fast paced walk.

Igneous: He continued to whip at her not hearing anyone.

Luna Felblade: *Luna screams till she looses conciousness*

Vixie Rivergem: "Sir! Please!" Vixie even brought up the courage to try and grab his arm to stop him. "Please stop!" she begged.

Ammy Spiritor: Array complete, she bit her thumb and smeared blood on the etching. A snap was heard and the collar fell off of Ammy. Green eyes flashed, but they held no sentience of the old Ammy. She was quickly out of the tent and tackling Igneous.

N.P.C.: The drow nodded. At this moment, half the camp was watching as a slave was beaten unconscious, their commander was bleeding and enraged, and now another slave tackling him. Bets were soon raised.

Igneous: He dropped the chains, being brought to the ground by Ammy's weight. "Get off of me!" he growled and swung at her.

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy leaped away from the downed Igneous, not being touched. Such speed and movement indicated she was in weapon mode. She crouched in front of Luna, protecting her. "Master should calm down. Master hurt bad. Master losing too much blood. You want me to heal master?"

Luna Felblade: *Luna is out cold*

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius ran towards the crowd and shoved past several people. She pulled out her pistol and held it in her paw just in case something worse was to happen

rawsha: -she stands feeling Igneous' rage, she was watching all this from close up...she looked at Luna, Ammy and Igneous-

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie backed away from them all and slinked in to the crowd. She knew there was nothing she could do, so she might as well be in a safe spot.

Igneous: Igneous' anger cooled as he was face down in the dirt, the icecicle melting away. He slowly stood. "Yes, Ammy heal me." he commanded. "The heal that slave and put a muzzle on her."

rawsha: -she watched them as she stands there quietly-

N.P.C.: The drowl looked with surprise. "First time I've seen him lose it like this. Mirius, maybe you should find out what's behind him."

Luna Felblade: *Luna remains out cold*

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy stalked forward looking like a combination of beauty and lethality. A few arcane words were uttered and she touched Igneous' face. The blood ceased to flow, but the eye was not healed. "I can not replace the eye master. I don't know how." she lied.

rawsha: -she watched the healing and how Ammy left his eye-

Igneous: He waved ammy away. "Heal Luna and muzzle her. Have the guards lock her up. Then come to me in the mess tent." he didn't realize she was missing her collar. He staggered off for his tent to get something.

Mirius Pojoris: She looked to her officer. "I'm confused of what the hells goin' on here...but ye if I get the chance I'll see if I can get some questions outta his muzzle...."

N.P.C.: He nodded.

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy stalked over to Luna and knelt. She cried touching her burnt daughter working her healing magic on Luna. The bone would mend properly. The fur and skin healed and even that mangled ear she never got to. Then she picked up Luna and held her close to her chest.

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie was trembling in fear while she stared at the scene not knowing what to do or say or where to even go.

Ammy Spiritor: "Luna be safe. Luna no hurt anymore. Ammy take care of precious. Kill those who harm precious. " She nuzzled Luna's neck.

rawsha: -she moved out of the way of people, she saw Igneous walk off..she watched as Ammy healed Luna, she looked over and saw her mom..and made her way through the group of men.- "mama! mama!" -she got to her and hugged her around the waist..it seemed Rawsha had grown a bit taller...she was thinner than when they had been brought here-

Igneous: Igneous was in pain even though he was healed. Falling inside his tent he scrambled for his stool and pulled himself up. He activate a mirror.

N.P.C.: The Amaretto's image appeared in the mirror. "Jeez Igneous. Get mauled by a bear?" she laughed at him.

Igneous: "I want to speak to Ebony!" he growled.

N.P.C.: Ebony appeared, red glowing eyes and light sucking black fur. "Having problems?"

Mirius Pojoris: "Think I should go speak with him now?" she asked her officer. "I know we ain't gonna be in private time in the mess tent."

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius did lean down and hug her daughter though. Giving a kiss to her forehead and nuzzling her.

Igneous: "I've captured a few extra pieces in our game with the Den, but they are unrully. But I want to know why I can not advance my troops yet?"

N.P.C.: "Shear might doesn't cull these mongrels, Igneous. You should know that. I have been amassing soul knights as you requested. Soon, very soon, you will have numbers to over whelm every lupe on the field and more. As to your troubles, shall I send you Amaretto?"

Igneous: "No. I don't trust that b***h sister of Ammy. I will wait, but I want my eye replaced."

rawsha: -she smiles up at her mom and wags her tail.- "im gonna learn magic mama.! and i have a dragon for a pet"

Mirius Pojoris: She noticed how thin Rawsha was looking. Mirius didn't like that at all. "I'm glad ye learnin', sweetie. And ye got a dragon? How'd ye get a dragon?"

N.P.C.: "Replace your own eye Igneous. My resources are tied up in the army I am crafting and keeping my brother and sister away from me." he growled and the mirror went dark.

rawsha: "Master Igneous gave me Laakaa" -she pointed off toward where the dragons where kept and grins-

Mirius Pojoris: Her eyes followed the direction Rawsha pointed. She spotted the dragons and blinked, looking back to Rawsha. "What exactly he be teachin' ye to do with a dragon?"

rawsha: "shes blue and white and..big...and pretty.." -she was excited..her stomach growled slightly but she looked up at her mom-.."feeding them mostly.."

Igneous: He cursed and looked about his tent. He didn't know how to restore, only mend. The taunting laughs of the other generals were in his ears as they called him a lesser Spiritor general for not having enough mastery of his elements. He'd show them all and take over this realm. His one eye spots a topaz crystal on his desk and grabbed it with his paws. He began crafting and laying down layer upon layer of death and life spells to make the gem into a gem of seeing with a few added perks.

Ammy Spiritor: "Luna?" she tried to get Luna to wake up. She looked around for a moment remembering someone who had tended to her. "Where Vixie?" she asked a guard.

N.P.C.: One of the humans pointed off to where Vixie was staying safe.

Mirius Pojoris: She heard her stomach growl. "Ye hungry. Why don't ye go get somethin' to eat? I need to speak with igneous."

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie was well frozen in place and wasn't aware she was being pointed to. Her eyes were even closed too along with her body still trembling.

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy stood and moved to Vixie, Luna clutched in her arms. She gave Vixie a nuzzle, seeming to forget some things, like verbal communications for some situations. She was relying on touch a lot.

rawsha: -she nods and hugs her mom again..then runs off toward the mess tent.- "bye bye mama" -she would go in and get something to eat and drink-

Vixie Rivergem: smiled a little bit and went to hug Ammy and Luna both. She would rub Ammy's back, too.

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius smiled and watched her daughter run off. "Go look after me daughter, please." She said to her officer and went for Igneous' tent.

N.P.C.: The drow nodded and followed after Rawsha.

Ammy Spiritor: She gave Vixie a small smile. Her eyes were still emerald green, but she seemed to be less broken, though not entirely herself.

rawsha: -she got food and drink and went to set down..she was sitting at a table where she could see everyone that was at tables...and she was eating slowly-

Igneous: The spells set, he shoved the gem into his eye socket roaring in pain as gem melded with muscle and flesh.

Mirius Pojoris: slowly walked into Igneous tent with quiet footsteps. She put her pistol back into her holster. That scream didn't sound too fun.

Ammy Spiritor: "We go eat?" she asked vixie like a child.

Vixie Rivergem: "I'm scared, Ammy." Vixie would return a nuzzling to Ammy's neck. She wanted comfort too and didn't have any family to be comforted with. After hearing Ammy she looked to her with a slight smile and nod. "Let's go eat..."

Ammy Spiritor: "Master would want us to. Master is kind."

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie slowly nodded. "Yes, he wouldn't want us to be starving."

Igneous: He turned hearing Mirius, and looked at her, blood caked on on his fur and the topaz gem glowing brilliantly in his head as he gazed at her with his one red eye. "Mirius." he said simply.

Ammy Spiritor: She moved to the mess tent carrying Luna like a doll.

Mirius Pojoris: "That's kinda eerie, y'know." She grinned at him some and crossed her arms staring at him. "Igneous, I need a few words with ye."

N.P.C.: The drow officer sat across from Rawsha and watched her a moment. "So you're the pup Mirius is speaking of often?"

Vixie Rivergem: followed Ammy closely to the mess tent. She was being quiet more than usual from fear.

Luna Felblade: *Luna cries in her sleep

Igneous: "Sit." he indicated his cot. He was in no mood for chatting, but the loss of his eye, the pain, and the games the Ebony Knight was playing with him left him with a need to do something.

rawsha: -she ate and drank and looked up at the drow officer- "yes Mimi..is my mama" -she hadnt called her Mimi in a while she grinned-

Ammy Spiritor: "Vixie get us food. I sit and keep rawsha and luna safe." Ammy moved for Rawsha's table and sat stroking Luna's hair.

N.P.C.: "I see." he took a slow drink. "Have people been messing with you Rawsha?"

Mirius Pojoris: She sat down on the cot stil lstaring at him. "What's goin' on with ye, Igneous? Ye been screwed up fer a while. And don't pull some lyin' crap on me."

Vixie Rivergem: "What food would you like?"

Ammy Spiritor: "Meat." is all she said and watched Rawsha as well.

Luna Felblade: *In the attack, Luna's old collar and fallen off*

rawsha: -she saw the others come in and nodded some- "a few of the men...i do chores around"

Igneous: "I am not longer in direct control of my army." he growled. "I had to make a deal with the Ebony Knight to help me hold sway over the mercenaries here after the first skirmish went bad. He's making me soul knights, Mirius. My current army was too small. But to get these new troops, I have to sit here and let the lupes think they have the advantage. I am sick of it."

N.P.C.: He frowned some. "Like the on in the pantry?"

Vixie Rivergem: "Yes, Ma'am." She gave a small smile. Vixie would go get some food though she had a little trouble finding her way around the mess tent to fidn the right foods and drinks, but she eventually found everything.

Mirius Pojoris: "Great, so where does that leave me and the gang? We just keep fightin' uselessly?"

rawsha: -she nodded as she swallowed- "i...i took...i protected myself"

Igneous: He growled again, the topaz flaring for a moment. "I am using you as a way to get around just sitting here. You're an independent unit. I am sending you after targets that I am hoping will start to get the Lupes to fall back. Then maybe I wont need a large army for pointless destruction. The Ebony Knight has his own agenda for us as well."

N.P.C.: "Did you really kill him on your own?" he questioned.

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy just listened and started to lick Luna's cheek fur to clean it.

rawsha: -those deep-sea blue eyes looking at the drow- "yes..i did..."

Luna Felblade: *Luna still hasnt woken up.*

N.P.C.: The drow went silent for a long moment.

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie came back with a plate of several slices of decently sized meat. She brought the plate over to Ammy and set it down before her and Luna. After that she sat down beside Ammy silently.

rawsha: -she looked over at Luna and Ammy...and Vixie...then back to the drow- "both of them...they attacked me...not a problem now"

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy started to eat hungrily, using her magic ate at her body.

Mirius Pojoris: "Well, I'll give ye a hint, too, Igneous. If things don't get any better. Worse things are gonna be happenin'." The stare was turning into a glare. "And ye disrespectin' me and treatin' me and others like utter crap ain't helpin' ye at all, y'know."

Igneous: "I have, havn't I?" he asked simply.

N.P.C.: "You be careful around the General. He has a few screws loose."

Luna Felblade: *luna whimpers as she slowly comes around*

rawsha: -she nodded- "i..try to be.....hes gonna teach me...dont want him mad at me"

Mirius Pojoris: "Yes." She stated in an aggravated tone. "A general should at least show respect fer his troops and yer lackin' that worse than a desert lackin' water. Ye need to change her attitude, Igneous, and ye need to get yerself straight before ye start makin' other stupid choices."

Mirius Pojoris: change yer attitude*

Igneous: Igneous' face look tired. "I am not always the one pulling my strings. The Ebony Knight gave my soul over to Ameretto. Some days, she is in control." he sighed. "I'll see if I can't fool them into not seeing a few more units being put into action."

Mirius Pojoris: "Ye sold yer frickin' soul? Why the hell'd ye do that!?" She was even shouting at him.

Igneous: "I couldn't get those two to agree to an alliance any other way."

Mirius Pojoris: "And what if this all goes crashin' down, huh? Yer completely frickin' screwed I hope you realize that!"

Igneous: "Yes, I know. Maybe I was wrong in my ambitions to conquer this realm." he looked into the shadows. "Maybe, I've been wrong my entire life."

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie would gently lean against against Ammy wanting some comfort.

Mirius Pojoris: "If ye did want to take it over honestly ye could've done it better, honestly."

Ammy Spiritor: She rubbed Vixie's back. This Ammy seemed different and didn't mind being a slave again.

N.P.C.: The drow looked over at ammy and vixie and luna even. He was thinking about something.

Luna Felblade: *Luna whimpers as she wakes up.*

rawsha: -she finished eating and took a drink..licking her lips-

Igneous: "Story of my life." he grunted and stood. "I am going to eat. I think I'll give you a gift for doing so well Mirius. You may have Ammy for the night."

Vixie Rivergem: She could barely tell Ammy was different right now. Vixie was having a terrible time so any comfort she could get was what good enough for her.

Mirius Pojoris: "And be with her where? Ye been havin' me shoved in that degrading pen."

Igneous: "Not any longer. Tell your drow officer to put you in an officers tent right away." he paused at the flap for a moment or two. "Mirius, do you know or anything of value around here to take over?" he asked as if he was not sure about his goals anymore.

Ammy Spiritor: Pets Luna some more. "You a nice Lupe, Vixie. Do I know you?"

Vixie Rivergem: She smiled, then looked confused. "Um. Yes, you do know me. We have been friends for some time...are you okay, Ammy?"

Luna Felblade: "Mommy?" *Luna whimpers softly*

Mirius Pojoris: She sighed. "I don't know. I guess there's families and stuff living around the Den I would assume if you wanted more leverage. Tell the enemies if they advance any further you'll kill some of them or something. If you want to go that far to buy time."

Ammy Spiritor: A glance at Luna for a moment. "Hi sweety. You okay. You're my precious." a look back to Vixie. "I'm okay. Master is kind to me." she has checked out of her mind.

Igneous: "That wasn't...what I meant. I don't think my original goals of just taking over the Den because I wanted to were right." He gripped the tent fabric for a long moment. "Maybe I should just shatter this army, send them all away and take time to find why I want that Den so badly. Gain a true army." his voice was trailing off.

N.P.C.: The drow sipped more ale. "Can you fight with magic yet rawsha?"

rawsha: -she looked back at the drow- "yes..some....master is going to teach me more"

N.P.C.: "I see." a glance at Ammy and Luna. "Both of your collars are gone. That's not going to sit well with Igneous."

Mirius Pojoris: She stood up and walked over to Igneous. "Well, yer kinda in a screwed position. ANd y'know if ye ever want yer soul back. Yer probably gonna have to talk to Ammy on that one."

Ammy Spiritor: "I no need collar. I am master's pet."

Vixie Rivergem: "But you don't remember me. Are you sure you are okay?"

Igneous: He left the tent and walked for the mess tent. "Mirius. Just don't die out there. Maybe, just maybe, we'll you use this first war to see how strong the lupes are. If we lose, we lose and come back with a better army. If we win, then well, we win." he sounded like he had his old self back in place.

Ammy Spiritor: She shook her head no. "You clean me. That all I know."

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie whimpered. She wasn't sure what was going on anymore.

Mirius Pojoris: "if we lose they might kill ye, y'know."

Mirius Pojoris: she did follow Igneous.

Igneous: "They wont kill what they cant catch. I have a dragon now Mirius. So does Rawsha." he entered the mess tent and spotted his ladies. "Ah, enjoying your meals?"

Ammy Spiritor: "No worry. Me keep you safe vixie." she nuzzled vixies neck again. This is what Ammy was like as a weapon. One moment violent, the next meek like a child.

Mirius Pojoris: "I guess we have common thoughts." She chuckled. Mirius would split off and go to sit by her daughter and her officer.

rawsha: -she looked up seeing Igneous and smiles, she felt alot better after eating, she took a moment and looked at the stone he had replaced his eye with, she looks at her mother-

Vixie Rivergem: She hugged Ammy and nodded to Igneous. "Yes, Sir. Ammy was hungry so I fed her."

Igneous: "Good for you Vixie." he looked at one of the drows, topaz gem eye glowing now. "You. Go get an officers tent set up for Mirius. Make sure it can house up to four people." he then sat by Ammy and Vixie. "Ammy, you are to stay with Mirius tonight and make sure she is happy. Understood, pet?"

Igneous: Within a large 100 ft clearing in the scrubby forest of the Outback, Igneous sat on a large rock with his accompaniment of beauties. He was going to be working with Rawsha on some magic today and was gracious enough to let the others come and be with them. Hidden within the forests were drow guards all watching their leader and the slaves. Igneous even let Rawsha bring Laakaa.

Luna Felblade: *Luna stays near Ammy. She wanted to take off her muzzle, but knows if she does she will be in trouble. Her golden eyes contain hate and a slight bit of fear*

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy was sitting in the grass, devoid of all clothing, just clad in her fur, brands, and tattoos working on brushing out Luna's fur and hair. She didn't pay any attention to how she herself looked. She was just happy master was happy.

Blizzard Shimmerscale: ::Muscles twitched as she stood beside Rawsha, wings stretching themselves out. At least she wasn't underneath all those chains anymore.:;

Luna Felblade: *Luna looks up at her mom as if asking if she can take off the muzzle.*

rawsha: -the child was staying near Laakaa and Igneous, she was petting Laakaa's neck softly, she was glad to be out of the main camp and that her master was going to teach her-


Blizzard Shimmerscale: ::Prumming as her neck was pet, ice blue eyes now upon the one that had originally caught her.::

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy's emerald eyes just gazed at Rawsha with a coolness that wasn't normal. She knew the look Rawsha gave. "Master Igneous. Am-am asks if Luna can have muzzle off please?"

Igneous: Igneous glanced at Ammy for a moment, then at Luna. His normal eye and the glowing topaz gem replacing the one Luna had ripped out didn't look very kind at the moment. "Ammy, will you guarantee she does not utter filth or defiance to me?"

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie sat on her knees by the large rock Igneous was on being quiet. At least they were out of the camp now and she was enjoying being out there in the forest in peace. She was wishing there was a lake she could at least swim in, but she'll just have t obe happy with what she has for now.

Ammy Spiritor: "Am-am try, Master." she said in a small voice.

Igneous: "Not good enough Ammy. Either she behaves, or you will lose a finger for each outburst your daughter has. Understood?"

Luna Felblade: * Luna looks at Igneous. Her eyes showed her fear that she had fopr igneous. She lets out a muffled whimper in fear.*

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius just kind of stood around. It was nice to relax, but she was bored, too. She sighed and crossed her arms. No weapons were on her today besides a combat knife. "Or if she yaps can I just beat Luna up, Iggy? It ain't like I got anythin' else to do."

Blizzard Shimmerscale: ;;Serpentine neck puffed up a moment at hearing Igneous, though she snorted then.:;

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy didn't say anything, just staying really quiet not sure if she wanted to remove that muzzle or not. Finally she did speak. "Yes, master." She fixed Luna with a pleading glance to behave and she took the muzzle off of Luna.

Igneous: "Bored Mirius? How about this then. Why don't you and our broken little weapon here spar some while I give Rawsha a few lessons in magic?"

rawsha: -she looks over at Luna and then over at her mother and just grins hearing her she pats the dragon on the neck, then her paw lays on scales a moment as she looks around at the others then she smiles up at Igneous-

Mirius Pojoris: "Sounds fun." She smirked. "Up fer some wrestlin', Ammy?"

Luna Felblade: *Luna rubbed her jaw and whimpers as it pops. Hatred seems to roll off her towards Igneous, but she remained silent*

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy looked to Igneous first. "I have permission to act violent, master?"

Blizzard Shimmerscale: ::A click of her jaws, now ice blue eyes were studying the trees. Surely there was a way to move about more freely..:;
Igneous: "Yes, but not too violent. Go have fun with Mirius. Must have all of my weapons in good working order." turning back he looked at Rawsha and Laakaa now. "Seems you are taking to your dragon really well Rawsha. Ready to learn some things today?"

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy nodded and stood with the ease of a warrior and the grace of a killer. She moved for Mirius slowly and stopped a bit away, just waiting.

rawsha: "yes master" -she pats Laakaa again and smiles then takes a few steps from her. She was always ready to learn, excited about magic as always-

Luna Felblade: *Luna stays silent. Her inner rage was hard to contain, but she did it with some grace. She felt a sense of satisfaction that Igneous was short an eye*

Igneous: "Oh, and Vixie, there is a small lake just on the other side of those trees. My troops control the area around it. Maybe you would like to swim my pet, and you can take Luna with you too."

Igneous: "How good is your control on Laakaa?" he asked.

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie looked over to Luna and back to Igneous. "Oh, I would love that very much, Sir. Thank you." She smiled. It seemed she was a little more happy today. "Would you like to come, Luna?"

Blizzard Shimmerscale: :;Wings flapped and fluttered again as ice blue eyes fell back onto Igneous.:;

Mirius Pojoris: She took a deep breath and stared at Ammy with a grin on her muzzle. "We just gonna have a little play fight. Ain't like we be fightin' to the death er anythin'. Alright, Ammy?"

Igneous: He stared right back at the dragon.

Luna Felblade: *Luna opens her mouth to answer, but then fear hits her. She looks at Igneous with a soft whimper*

Igneous: A look to Luna with a nasty grin.

rawsha: -she looked back at Laakaa- "she has been a good pet master Igneous...i think she will obey me" -she looks up at Laakaa- "peace Laakaa...calm down"

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy nodded once. "Play...fight..." she mouthed and sprinted for Mirius kicking out at her.

Luna Felblade: *Luna's eyes turn to an acid green. She looks around confused. AJ had taken over* "Where am I father?" *She said to Igneous*

Igneous: "Then let's give a test shall we. Have Laakaa fly around this area then return to you."

Blizzard Shimmerscale: ::Grunting, she took to sniffing around, before ears perked to hearing her owner's voice.:;

Igneous: "Luna, go play with Vixie in the lake."

Vixie Rivergem: moved over to Luna. She would hold out her paw to Luna, still smiling.

Luna Felblade: "OK father." *AJ didnt know of Luna's betrayal of igneous. She takes Vixie's paw to get up and follow her*

rawsha: -she nodded- "Laakaa..fly..stretch your wings and go around the clearing....then return to me" -she hoped her pet would obey her-

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius took a step back with her left foot some. Then reached out to grab Ammy's foot to swing her around and let go.

Igneous: Igneous layed out a square cloth of red silk and began laying out various pieces of gems, crystals, wires, and more.

Blizzard Shimmerscale: ::Finally, she stretched still stiff wings, pushing off the ground. A hover was attained, before she wheeled to glide over the tree tops.:;

Vixie Rivergem: "Come on, Luna. Let's go for a swim." Vixie grinned and began to hurry off into the direction for the lake. She was almost skipping she was so happy.

Ammy Spiritor: Letting her foot be caught, she used the brief captivity to vault into the air to kick out with the other foot, her crimson hair flowing behind her as if it was alive.

Luna Felblade: *AJ follows. AJ is Luna's split personality. She is the loyal one while the real Luna is a rebel. AJ will do whatever she is told*

rawsha: -she watched Laakaa and took a few steps back as the dragon took off...she watched her pet...thinking the dragon was amazing as she watched her...she looked over at the items that Igneous laid out...though keeping her attention on her pet-

Blizzard Shimmerscale: ::She of course was taking her time, being chained for so long.:;

Igneous: He watched as well seeing how well the control serum on the dragon was working.

Mirius Pojoris: Not expecting the other kick, she would try to dodge it but instead it hit her in the side of face. Mirius landed on her back hard. "Ow! Sheesh Ammy!" She held her face with her right paw and chuckled.

Vixie Rivergem: Once they reached the lake she smiled. It was so great to see so much water again. "Would you like to swim with me, Luna." She turned to Luna when she asked.
[
Ammy Spiritor: Ammy landed on the ground with ease, green eyes just watching, her tail flicking some, planning her next attack. She darted forward low for Mirius' mid section.

rawsha: -she moved to stand at her masters side as she grinned- "Laakaa is beautiful...thank you Master for letting me have her" -the young lupe was smiling.-

Luna Felblade: " My name is AJ, Luna is not here." *She looks at Vixie with Acid green eyes.* "I would like to swim though"

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius went to get up, but soon she was getting tackled by Ammy and went down for the ground again.

Blizzard Shimmerscale: ::Over the trees and around the glen, finally backwinging as she came back in for a landing.:;

Igneous: "Anything for my pupil." he gave Rawsha a pat on the head. "Once Laakaa is back I'll show you about creating your own Soul Pendant."

Vixie Rivergem: That confused her quite a bit. "AJ...Well, okay." Vixie took off her clothing and was just in fur. After that she walked a ways into the lake and dived into a deeper part of it. The water felt good. Vixie was beyond happy to be swimming again. She loved it to death.

Luna Felblade: *AJ stays in the shallows. Her clothes lay on the beach. She still had no idea how she had gotten here*

rawsha: -she watched her pet come in for the landing- "very good Laakaa.." -she moved over her and pats the dragons snout- "now master wants to teach me...so be a good girl" -she smiles at her pet and moves back over to Igneous...feeling very proud, she had to stop her tail from wagging as she looked up at him- "ready when you are master"

Ammy Spiritor: She rolled off of Mirius when they hit the ground and she came back up in a ready stance, a low growl in her throat, though her tail swished happily behind her. "Am-am happy. Not get to fight much. Master nice to Am-am."

Blizzard Shimmerscale: ::A thrum as she was patted, before being left to her devices. Maybe she could explore, starting to wander.:;

Igneous: "Very well then. Have a seat. Oh, and be sure to let Laakaa fly often to keep her muscles up."

rawsha: -she looked over toward Laakaa- "not to far Laakaa...come when i call.." -she looked up at Igneous and sat down- "yes master i will.."

Mirius Pojoris: Another chuckle and she quickly jumped back onto her feet. "I'm glad ye happy, Ammy. That cute talk ye do is kinda fun, too." Mirius smirked. She held up her paws and slowly began to circle around Ammy.

Igneous: "Now what I have here is a collection of gems and crystals. Each one is able to be used for making soul gems or pendants with, and a few types of necklaces and holders for the pendat. Choose what you want your pendant to look like. Take your time and feel each material and go with what feels right to you."

Blizzard Shimmerscale: ::Ears swiveled as she heard her owner's call, serpentine neck lifting to look that way, if only for a moment. She was unencumbered now..:;

Vixie Rivergem: She resurfaced and moved towards AJ some. Then splashed some water at her playfully with a paw and giggled.

Luna Felblade: *AJ laughs and splashes back.* "Where are we and why did father take us here?" *She asked Vixie*

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy turned slowly keeping her eyes on Mirius, tail twitching and ears laying flat. She was ready for what may happen.

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie laughed when AJ splashed her back. "I don't really know, but we can always take this time to enjoy ourselves." She smiled. "

Blizzard Shimmerscale: ::Had it not been for that serum, she'd have escaped a long time ago. Still though it kept her obedient, so she would not stray too far away.::

rawsha: -she looked down at the materials before her and picked up each one at a time, inspecting each slowly and touching each...she grinned and took a silver holder with an intricate design after a moment, the chain she chose was simple silver braided rope, she looked over both a moment-

Mirius Pojoris: It seemed it was Mirius' turn to attack. She charged forward and went low going for a leg sweep for her feet to trip her.

rawsha: -then she looked at the gems...looking over the shapes and colors of each-

Luna Felblade: *AJ swam around, still looking puzzled*

Ammy Spiritor: She seemed to move back to slow letting her legs being swept from under her, but as she fell, ammy kicked upwards at Mirius putting her long legs to good use.
Vixie Rivergem: "Feeling okay, AJ?" She flipped herself over and began to float around on her back to relax.

rawsha: -she soon chose a gem that looked black unless light hit it and then a red tint could be seen- "i think these...i like them the best master"

Igneous: Igneous just watched Rawsha inspect things. His mind drifted off for a moment thinking back to the old country. When was the last time he was allowed an apprentice? Never it seemed.

Luna Felblade: " Is father mad at me for something? He sounded mad and what happened to his eye?"

Blizzard Shimmerscale: ::Perhaps a nap.., easing down onto her belly, wings tucked against her sides. Her head came to rest beside her forelegs as slumber took over.::

Igneous: Coming back to the present, that topaz gem now in his eye socket regarded what Rawsha selected. "Good selection. Now put the pendant together and I'll show you how to power it up."

rawsha: -she smiled and put the pendent together, slipping the chain through the small silver loop, she slips the stone into the setting making sure it was secured well...then she held it in her paws, this took a few moments but she smiled- "alright done master"

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius would use her momentum to dodge the kick, but she had to move away from Ammy at the same time which would give Ammy time to get back up.

Igneous: Igneous went back to thinking for a moment again, seeing the caught dragon. Know one in the old country has managed to catch a Lupinoss Dragon. The dragon Rawsha hand was beautiful and looked powerful. Was he doing the right thing capturing it? Or kidnapping these women? Looking back to Rawsha he smiled hearing the word master. "Good. Now then hold it to your heart first." he picked up his own pendant and held it to his heart.

Vixie Rivergem: "Uhm..." She went into an upright position and looked to AJ. "Well, Luna badmouthed and attacked him with ice sickles and one of them hit his eye."

rawsha: -she grinned up at him, the child really wanted to learn from a great mage and she was going to do everything...to her best understanding...she brought the pendant up to her heart and waited for his instruction-

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy rolled, came up and leapt for mirius hoping to grab for a wrist.

Luna Felblade: *AJ looks shocked. She quickly leaves the lake, not putting her clothes on. She calls out for her father, Igneous.*

Blizzard Shimmerscale: ::She was peacefully napping, though ears ever remained perked should she be called.:;

Mirius Pojoris: Her left wrist was grabbed and she went to grab Ammy's side with her right paw hoping to swing her down into the ground.

Igneous: "Repeat what I say. ~I'im mi'itu'u taamra oom ooprem soolta fi'ili'i.~"

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie went wide eyed and went after AJ. "AJ, no, no, no, don't do that!" She said in a hushed voice.

Ammy Spiritor: She stepped back hoping to flip Mirius but she lost her footing when Mirius grabbed her side.

Luna Felblade: "FATHER!" *AJ yells again. She only really listened to Igneous. She runs back to the top of the hill and yells again*

Vixie Rivergem: Doh. She puts a paw over her face. There wasn't anything Vixie could do now with AJ running off like that.

rawsha: -she nodded and smiled as she repeated after him- "I'im mi'itu'u taamra oom ooprem ..soolta. fi'ili'i" -keeping the pendant at her heart, her ears perked as she heared ..AJ, but she paid little mind to the yelling-

Igneous: "Next move the pendant to your forehead and repeat these words. ~I'im mi'itu'u haani'is ooprem soolta fi'ili'i.~"

Mirius Pojoris: With the grab she tries to swing Ammy down to the side and onto her back.

Luna Felblade: *AJ moves closer, bit doesn?t look at Igneous. She waits for him to notice her*

rawsha: -she moved the pendant to her forehead- "I'im mi'itu'u haani'is ooprem soolta fi'ili'i"

Igneous: A glance at the shouting. Igneous could tell Luna was something, different with the oddity of behavior. "Yes, my daughter?"

Luna Felblade: *AJ bows, head to the ground* "Please forgive me father for what Luna did. Luna was bad, but I am good father."

Igneous: Back to Rawsha. "Clasp the pendant in both paws now, speak these words the blow into your paws. ~Wu'us mi'itu'u fi'il'ii mi'itu'u mu'u yom li'i foo mi'itu'u soolta magi'i."

rawsha: -she grinned and closed her paws around the pendant and spoke- "Wu'us mi'itu'u fi'il'ii mi'itu'u mu'u.. yom li'i foo mi'itu'u soolta magi'i." -she then blew into her paws as instructed-

Ammy Spiritor: She's found herself on her back looking up at Mirius. She struck out with a paw hoping to tag mirius in the back of a knee.


Mirius Pojoris: With that paw going into the back of her left knee she stumbled and efl onto her knees almost falling over.

Igneous: Rawsha's pendant would glow briefly whatever color Rawsha aura would be. Igneous looked at Luna a moment. "Luna was punished my daughter. You don't need to apologize."

Luna Felblade: "Father, I don?t want her to take over again. Cant you make it so she cant?" *AJ didn?t like that Luna was a rebel and did not follow as she was told*

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie moved back for the water and began to swim around in it again. Occasionally diving and resurfacing. Though she was starting to really miss home. And missing that time she was swimming with Mogriil.

Ammy Spiritor: Rolling, she moved to pin Mirius, with her body on top.

Igneous: Igneous regarded Luna for a long moment. "Maybe I should have Amaretto speak with you." he grinned a bit coldly.

Luna Felblade: "Who father? By the way, my name is AJ. Luna is a stupid name to me."

Mirius Pojoris: Falling down on her back she stared up at Ammy. Her paws would go and try to Grab Ammy's arms to try to keep her from pinning her down on the ground. Mirius would also try to roll Ammy over so she could attempt to pin her down, too.

rawsha: -she watched the pendant as she opened her paws and grinned as it glowed then she looks at the pendant with a grin, she watches AJ and Igneous-

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy rolled and put her foot up under mirius' belly and would kick hard.

Igneous: "Really now. So you are not Luna?" separate personalities. Hmm. Isn't that what Ammy suffered then she split into her and her evil twin? Maybe he could get a daughter out of this yet. He looked back to Rawsha and smiled. "Well done. Now then, the way that pendant works is it is attuned to your soul only. It will not work for anyone else. You have charged it with a bit of your soul and the charge will always renew itself. So you can cast several spells before it is exhausted and starts drawing on

Igneous: your own body."

Mirius Pojoris: She'd be kicked off and fell to the ground with the air knocked out of her. That made her temporarily vulnerable.

Luna Felblade: "No father. Luna is locked away where bad girls go" * She meant that she had locked Luna in her mind*

Ammy Spiritor: She was on her feet and straddling mirius, muzzle near her throat, that tail not swishing anymore, and she was growling.

rawsha: -she smiles and nods understanding.. she looks down at the pendant and slips the chain over her head to put it on- "thank you for showing me this Master"

Igneous: "You can make another pendant this same way if this one breaks. The hardest part is collecting the right gem or crystal. Only you can find the right one for yourself. Now to magic." he stood and looked at Luna. "I see. We'll talk about this later then, AJ. Go play in the lake with Vixie then."

Mirius Pojoris: Catching her breath she looked at Ammy. "Ye can really hit hard, Ammy...." Mirius chuckled. She noticed Ammy's muzzle near her throat and the growl. "Ammy?" she raised a brow curiously.

Luna Felblade: "Ok father." *She walks back to the lake and dives in and swims around*

Vixie Rivergem: Seeing AJ return she smiled. "Oh, there you are! Is everything okay?"

Ammy Spiritor: Presses her muzzle closer to mirius' throat. Her body shook. She wanted to bite, rend, kill, feel warm hot blood in her muzzle.

rawsha: -she stands up smiling-

Blizzard Shimmerscale: ::Yawning, one eye drifted open before closing again.::

Igneous: A glance to the sparring and he stopped moving. "Ammy. Enough."

Luna Felblade: *AJ comes to the surface* "Father said he will talk to me later about it"

Ammy Spiritor: She kept growling louder and didn't move. White, sharp teeth bared now so close to puncturing fur and hide.

Igneous: "One moment Rawsha."

rawsha: -she nodded- "Yes Master Igneous" -she watched them all-
[
Igneous: Igneous moved for Ammy. "Step away from Mirius number 27. That is an order."

Mirius Pojoris: "uh...Ammy, we were just play fightin'. Remember?" Mirius didn't make any sudden movements. She wasn't wanting her throat being ripped out.

Vixie Rivergem: "Oh, okay. I hope he isn't upset or anything." She said with a concerned look. "Do you like swimming?"

Ammy Spiritor: "Screw orders." she growled low and deep. "I want blood." her eyes were narrowed as she looked right into Igneous' soul.

Igneous: He lifted his paw readying a shock bolt.

rawsha: -she stayed back hearing the growling but Ammy was after all fighting and now had her fangs bared at her mother...she watched them all-

Mirius Pojoris: "Ammy, calm down. Just calm down." she tried to convince her.

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy didn't give him a chance. She leaped off of Mirius' prone body, arcing in the air with the grace of a killing machine, paws glowing red with crackling energy as she sent a rippling of lightning for Igneous.

Luna Felblade: "Yes I do. Keep my fur cool" *Black fur in the heat is murder*

Mirius Pojoris: "Ammy! No!" Mirius jumped to her feet after Ammy leapt off of her.

Igneous: "Damn it all to Fen." he dodged, the shock spell fizzling as he abandoned it. He was an idiot for forgetting how unstable subject 27 could be in weapon mode.

rawsha: -she stood back and watched Igneous and Ammy-

Ammy Spiritor: She landed, gouging the ground deep with those energized paws. The red lightning ceased as she ran for igneous in one fluid motion, intent on touching any part of him she could with a deconstruction array. Black energy hung ominously around her paws.

Igneous: Stepping back, Igneous would have to time this right. He let her get close, the stepped in, grabbing one wrist, then shoving his elbow hard into her solar plexus.

Vixie Rivergem: She giggled. "I agree with you on that, AJ. Do you know any magic with water?"

Luna Felblade: *AJ nods and makes a pair of dancing water figures*

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy grunted and her breath left her and she crumpled to the ground.

Igneous: Releasing Ammy's wrist, Igneous went on to move for Rawsha. "Now where were we?"

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius swore several times and ran over to Ammy and Igneous. "Ammy! What the hell were ye thinkin'!?" She was surprised Igneous just walked off like nothing happened. He was acting odd. Mirius kneeled down beside Ammy.

rawsha: -she looked up at him- "you said you would teach me one word spells..Master Igneous..and more"

Ammy Spiritor: She was trying to catch her breath, all magic spells off line for the moment. "What...happened? Am-am bad?"

Mirius Pojoris: She groaned and sighed. "Ammy. Ye went crazy. What the heck is goin' through yer mind? Huh? Ye was about to kill me then ye tried to kill Igneous."

Igneous: "Ah yes. Indeed. Let's pick those trees over there for practice." he moved to show her the spot. "One word spells, are the culmination of learning how to fuel the arrays and words of a spell into one representative word."

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie gasped at the water figures and clapped her paws together. "Oh! Wow! I have been hoping I can do water magic too one day. I started to learn and I hope to get the hang of it. I'd like to do things like you can." She smiled widely.

Ammy Spiritor: "I did?" she shivered for a moment. "Did...did i hurt you?"

rawsha: -she moved with him listening to him as they went-

Luna Felblade: "What do you think of that stupid girl Luna?"\

Vixie Rivergem: "Stupid? Now why do you think she is stupid?"

Mirius Pojoris: "Well...ye knocked the air outta me." She chuckled. Mirius would sit down by Ammy. "Okay, so maybe we shouldn't rough play a lot. Seems that makes ye get all excited fer fightin'."

Luna Felblade: "She doesn?t listen to father and disobeys him. She even hurt him"

Igneous: "First spell to learn is quite useful. The word is Haat and it will stop most of your opponents in their tracks. The exception is strong willed opponents at magic shielding." with a wave of his paw he made a short bush come to life and take a few steps forward on its roots. "I want you to focus as much as you can on the word Haat and envision that this bush will be stuck in the stickiest thing possible to stop it. Once you have it down, I'll have the bush attack you."

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie frowned and thought for a moment. "Well, Luna is scared. And sometimes when people are scared they do stupid things."

Ammy Spiritor: She layed where she was and simply nodded. "Am-am sorry. Thirst for blood get high some time."

Luna Felblade: "She hurt father"

Mirius Pojoris: "Ammy. Ye ain't a vampire are you?" She asked acting serious.

Vixie Rivergem: "I know, AJ. And that is what I meant. And stupid things can be harmful."

Ammy Spiritor: She shook her head no. "Sometimes when masters test me, I taste blood. It makes am-am black out then I wake up and many are dead. Blood make me crazy. Berserk."

Luna Felblade: "Are you defending her?"

Vixie Rivergem: "Well...Kind of....I just don't like to see people fight and hate each other."

rawsha: -she'd nod and looking toward the bush, she concentrated on the word as she spoke it over- "Haat" -and brought to mind sticky giant spider webs, she looked at the bush-

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius chuckled. "Alright, no blood for you then." She would move to wrap her arms around Ammy to move her into a sitting position slowly.

Igneous: "Are you ready Rawsha?"

rawsha: "yes Master, im ready" -she readied herself her eyes still on the bush-

Luna Felblade: "All bad girls must be punished"\

Igneous: He sent the bush after Rawsha at a slow pace first.

rawsha: -she watched it close in on her and commanded- "Haat" -it must have been a small giant spider, at first only few webs formed...she repeated with more of a direct command- "Haat!"

Ammy Spiritor: "I'm sorry Mirius. Am-am bad girl. Am-am is a freak. Not good enough to be a Spiritor Weapon."

Igneous: The bush started to slow, then stopped. "Decently done." a wave of his paw and another bush moved coming for her faster than the first one.

Vixie Rivergem: "I guess so...." She wasn't sure what else to say and just decided to keep on swimming

rawsha: -she directed her attention to the bushes and pictured the bushes in thick quicksand- "Haat!"

Mirius Pojoris: "Oh, hell Ammy. Don't be callin' yerself a freak er anythin'. Aint' like we all perfect er whatever." She'd go to hold Ammy close.

Igneous: The bush slowed down quite a bit as the terrain shifted. "Nicely done." a wave and a small tree now came for Rawsha.

rawsha: -she looked up as the tree came toward her, grinned- "Haat" -earth would tear up from the ground and hold the tree in place-

Ammy Spiritor: "Okay." she leaned into the hug.

Igneous: He clapped in approval. "Now, then Rawsha, what did you learn about using this one word spell?"

Mirius Pojoris: "So, did ye sleep well last night?" She hugged Ammy close with an arm.

Ammy Spiritor: A small nod. "Felt weird. Dream of a small little, uhm, boygirl who was crying from nightmares. A little boy was holding hir, making hir feel better. Call himself hir knight."

rawsha: "that one word spells..dont use as much energy and that i can use the same word to stop things in different ways" -she looked over at him-

Mirius Pojoris: "Huh...." She paused. "I do not know what to say about that..."

Igneous: "Well done. So you've notice how the spell changes to match your thoughts on how to stop opponents of various types. This is very key to making a very useful mage."

Ammy Spiritor: "I think hir name is Fleety."

Vixie Rivergem: She swam around some more then moved to a shallow spot that was knee deep. Maybe this was a good time to try and practice her water magic like Fiim was teaching her. When she was standing in knee deep water she stood up straight and held out her paws to either side with paws facing down towards the water.

Mirius Pojoris: "Fleety? Don't ye mean Fleet? Or are ye makin' up cute names fer others now?"

rawsha: -she grins and looks at him, the child was glad she had an imagination-


Ammy Spiritor: "Who Fleet?"

Mirius Pojoris: "Yer mate. Ye don't remember anythin' do ye?"

Igneous: "Now let's work on another spell. Streepa. Imagine again all of your focus into bind your opponents." the stopped bushes and tree would start to move for her again.

Ammy Spiritor: "Master give am-am a mate?" she blinked.

Vixie Rivergem: She began to clear her mind and let it flow free like the water. just as Fiim had told her too. And even began to feel that tingly feeling at her legs from the water. To manipulate the water was the tricky part. Hmm.

Mirius Pojoris: "No. He was yer mate before all this....sheesh. Did not matin' fer a long time drive ye crazy er somethin'?"

Ammy Spiritor: A slight tilt to her head in thought. Green eyes flicker to gold for a moment or two. "Fleety." she mouthed softly, a note of love, passion, sorrow, and loneliness all rolled into that name.

rawsha: -she watched the tree start to move after her again, her attention on it, she took a bit longer thinking this time but spoke- "..Streepaa!" -from the ground chains shot up and wrapped themselves around the trunk and branches of the tree?pulling tight as the tree tried to move forward-

Igneous: The bushes ran at Rawsha quickly.

Mirius Pojoris: She gave Ammy a squeeze in the hug. "Don't worry. Ye still got me here with ye, Ammy." Mirius nuzzled her neck.

rawsha: -looking at the bushes she grinned- "Streepaa!" -roots and grasses shot up and took over the bushes binding them and holding tight-

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie kept her mind simple and flowing, though. It was hard and difficult. At least she had the patience for trying to learn this.

Igneous: "You are learning well. One more for the night then we'll work on something more complicated." Looking at the small bush he pointed and spoke. "Fi'igoo!" and the bush burst into flame. He waved to Rawsha to figure it out.

Ammy Spiritor: She nods. Ammy looked over to Igneous. "Master? Am-am sorry I disobey. Can Am-am go swim? Me hot."

Mirius Pojoris: "if she goes. I'll go with her, Iggy." She grinned

Igneous: "By all means. Go to the lake. But mirius, you get away from her if she goes nuts again. Shoot her if you have to."

rawsha: -she watched the bush catch fire and waved a hand toward it after a moment- "Lakaashaa" -clouds came up over the bush it started to rain the area around the burning bush putting it out-

Mirius Pojoris: "Shoot? All I brought is me knife." She chuckled. "But I know what ye mean. Don't ye worry."
Igneous: "Now that's thinking ahead." he grinned to Rawsha. "You put it out, now set one on fire."

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy whimpered hearing Igneous. "Am-am be good master." she shivered close to Mirius scared.

Mirius Pojoris: "C'mon, Ammy. Let's go to that lake, eh?" She grinned and would slowly move up still holding Ammy with her right arm.

rawsha: -she grinned at him and pointed over to the other bush- "Fi'igoo" - from her hand a line of flame being pushed with her air magic swirled around the bush lapping at it before it moved toward the bushes center lighting the bush on fire-

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy followed. "Me so confused." she sniffled.

Mirius Pojoris: She would lead Ammy towards the lake slowly. "I'm confused as hell, too, but ain't a think I can really do 'bout it all. But I guess that leaves us confused together."

Igneous: He grinned seeing how she manipulated the fire. "Good. I believe you understand one word spells. As a test though, the next time we have a lesson I want you to show me four new one word spells that you have made. Now let's work on your own affinities."

rawsha: -she smiles as he gave her her first assignment to work on then she nods- "alright Master" -she stands there near him-

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy nodded once. "Am I good enough for some clothing soon?" she asked like a small child. "I behave like master wants." leaning into Mirius. "I wasn't like this before was I?" her clarity of mind all over the place.

Vixie Rivergem: With a sigh she rested her paws at her sides. "I guess I'll just try more of that later." She went back into the water and swam around on her back, humming sweet little tunes.

Igneous: "You can control the wind. Show me what you have learned from your parents and on your own."

Mirius Pojoris: "Ye'll get yer clothes at some point." She patted Ammy's side with the arm that was wrapped around her lower torso. "And no ye weren't like this before ye got a master n' all that. Think ye sufferin' from shock er somethin'. Or goin' without matin's is really drivin' ye that nuts."

Ammy Spiritor: "Shock?" she thought a moment. Bad thing to do. The visions of what happened to her mentally buckled her knees making her scream in phantom pain.

rawsha: -she takes a step away from him and levitates off the ground about a foot.- "i can go up a little higher" -she lowers herself to the ground..then she puts her paws together and forms a three inch in diameter lightening orb between them- "i can make a sheild with air, and use air to cut and crush things....too father spent lots of time with me teaching me" -she smiled at him-

rawsha: "and I can call metal...and make it...was working on that...but didnt learn much"

Igneous: "Good. What about your life affinity. You know how to heal?"

Mirius Pojoris: Noticing Ammy going into that position and screaming suddenly had her alert and worry."Whoa! Ammy! Ammy!" Mirius kneeled down by her to hold her close. "Ammy! Calm down! What's wrong?"

rawsha: "yes Master, minor...are not a problem...I can heal major, mend bones and some purifying...but it takes a lot...well until now" -she smiles as a paw brushes the pendant-

Ammy Spiritor: "Luna kill me. Get the knife out of my back. Why Luna, why, why...Fleety don't, please don?t. Not my throat." she screams some more holding her throat as if she is bleeding to death.

Igneous: "When you are healing, do you have to touch your target?"

Mirius Pojoris: "Ammy! What the heck ye talkin' about!? There ain't no knife in yer back. Luna and Fleety ain't even right here!"

rawsha: -she thought a moment- "I never tried...without touching"

Vixie Rivergem: "Enjoying the swim, Luna?" Vixie stopped humming to speak

Igneous: "Well you will now. You can blend several affinities together to make unique spells." he pulled from his robes several small black crystals. "These are called ill stones. They simulate the sick, wounded, or dying. They are used for practicing healing spells when no one is around that is hurt." He placed six stones around Rawsha about 3 feet away from her and 4 feet apart from each other.

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy blinked looking around and scooted right up into Mirius. "but...but... I saw them in my mind. I was dying... they were hurting me.... Fleety was mad at me..." she was crying softly now.

rawsha: -she looked at the ill stones as he placed them around her and she stood there in the center of them, she hadnt ever seen anything like them, she just looked at them all and waited for his instruction-

Mirius Pojoris: "Shh..." She remembered when Ammy told her last night about all that happening. "It's all in yer head, Ammy. It ain't really happenin. It's just me yer gal Mirius here."

Igneous: "Touch the first one and heal it, then step back. When you heal an ill stone it will turn bright red and stay that way for a few minutes."

Ammy Spiritor: "Mir?" she hugged mirius close seeming to be Ammy for once. "What did he do to me?"

rawsha: -she would look at the first one and like she had done with scratches and cuts before she stepped to the stone and sent healing magic into the stone as she touched it, she watched for the glow he had told her about as she stepped to the center again-

Mirius Pojoris: She didn't hesitate to hug Ammy tightly. "I don't know, Ammy. I think he been screwin' with yer mind while I've been to the battles. Everythin' gonna be alright. I'll be here to help keep ye as sane as I can."

Igneous: It glowed red.

rawsha: -she smiled and looked at the glowing stone then she looked up at him-

Igneous: "Good. Now, the fun part. Conjure a small stream of air and have it blow on the next stone."

Ammy Spiritor: "Okay." she sniffled more. her eyes shifted back to green again. "We go to lake? Am-am hot."

Mirius Pojoris: "Sure. Lets go to that lake." She grinned to Ammy. A paw rubbed her back to comfort. "Want me to carry ye?"

rawsha: -she looks at the stone and puts her paws together as if she was going to do a small clap, but instead of closing her paws she would send a small flow of air at the stone, as he had told her and she watched the outcome-

Ammy Spiritor: "Ookaa." she didn't refuse. Hell, Ammy was looking thin, really thin again.

Igneous: The dirt around the stone stirred. "Keep the wind blowing and now let healing energy seep into that wind."

Mirius Pojoris: And noticing that she sighed. She lifted Ammy up and carried her in her arms with one arm under her back and the other under her legs. Mirius began to walk for the lake once more. "I'll see if I can get Igneous to let ye rest with me again. How's that sound?"

rawsha: -she realized what he was having her do and how it worked...she fed the healing energy into the wind and watched the air move her healing around and into the stone it was flowing around, her tail wagged lightly-

Ammy Spiritor: "Am-am like Mirius. Mirius nice to Am-am like master is nice to her."

Igneous: The stone lit up read. "Now you can heal without touching. This is good for when you can't reach a person or if the illness is something that may hurt you as well. Now I want you to heal the other four stones at the same time."

Mirius Pojoris: "I'm nicer than that fur-bag will ever be." She snickered. "I won't be mean to ye, Ammy. Don't ye worry."


Ammy Spiritor: She nods.

rawsha: -she thinks a moment as she looks at the other four stones, she thought a moment as she had the air magic moving around her she motioned with both paws and four streams of wind, two from each paw went out to the four stones...one stream to each and concentrating a bit now, as she did this...the air magic was more natural to her but healing was something she could do...those blue eyes glimmered as she sent healing into the four stones at once through the air-

Mirius Pojoris: She reached the lake and Mirius would sit down still holding Ammy as if she was like a child in her arms. "Looks like them two havin' fun swimmin'."

Igneous: Igneous just watched with a smile. Rawsha pendant may be glowing brightly too as he was having her do more and more magic to tax the pendant to it's limits.

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy nodded. "Am-am can stand." she'd move from Miriu's hold and go for the water hopping in like a little kid. She may be light weight, but she seemed to move with the grace of a killer and an assassin.

Mirius Pojoris: "Just figured ye wanted to be held er somethin' was all." She shrugged and watched Ammy.

rawsha: -she watched as the stones glowed and she stood there in the center of them, she lowers her paws and smiles up at him- "thank you Master Igneous..for showing me these things" -she understood the use of healing from a distance and she had learned about one word spells-

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie saw Ammy coming to the water and smiled. "Hello, Misses Ammy. Come to join for a swim?"

Igneous: "You are welcome. Now, you may go relax at the lake if you wish. I will not show you anymore today as your pendant is nearing it's limits."

Ammy Spiritor: She looked back to Mirius. "Like mirius's holding, but feeling odd right now." a look to Vixie and nods. "Me swim. Get cool."

rawsha: -she smiles at him- "alright master" -she looks off toward the lake where the others had gone then looks up at him...then she moves off toward the lake-

Vixie Rivergem: She giggled. "Okay. Jump on in then." Vixie swam a little closer to the shore. "Are you coming in, too, Ma'am?" she said to Mirius.

Mirius Pojoris: "Not really. Think I'll just keep me tail over here and outa the water fer now." She grinned.

Igneous: Ingneous returned to sitting on his rock and simply held his head in his paws lost in thought again.

Vixie Rivergem: "Okay." She began to swim around in the water some more. Vixie almost never got tired of swimming around in water.

rawsha: -she walks through the forest toward the lake, she was thinking about everything she learned today, the little lupe sees her mother up ahead and heads toward her- "mama!" -she moves over and hugs Mirius-

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy swam around for a bit enjoying the water and letting her memories flow away from her.

Mirius Pojoris: Looking back she saw Rawsha and eopend her arms. "Me little Rawsha!" She grinned. "How was yer learnin' from Iggy?"

Igneous: He's showing someone else how to cast magic. He's passing on his knowledge. He's lost an eye and is in a land surrounded by many enemies as well as selling his soul to the evil god of Lupinoss. Has his time come to walk off of this world?

Vixie Rivergem: VIxie would begin humming a sweet little tune again and swim by Ammy. Smiling at her, too.

] rawsha: -her tail wagged happily as she hugs her mother- "its goin' good ma'ma!. Master Igneous showed me lots today" -she called him Master Igneous not as a slave master but as a teacher...the young lupe was so excited-

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy listened to the humming tune and was smiling as she swam. "Vixie?" her eyes were gold again.

Vixie Rivergem: "Yes, ma'am?" She looked over to Ammy and stopped humming for the moment.

Igneous: Igneous shoved the thoughts from his mind. He was a Spiritor General. He wouldn't die so easily. He'll find a way through this mess. He stood and walked for the lake and just leaned against a tree watching the others swim.

Mirius Pojoris: "Really? What kinda things did ye learn?" She ruffled Rawsha's hair and ears.

Ammy Spiritor: "I am so glad to see you again. Have you been okay? Not hurt by Igneous?"

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie giggled. "Well, I'm glad to see you again, too, Ma'am. I'm fine and Igneous has not hurt me. He's been treating me fairly well, actually. It's just things around the camp and all the fighting that I get upset over."

rawsha: "he showed me using air and healing...together" -she smiled- "and one word spells." -she spoke to her mother and smiled as she looked down at the pendant she had around her neck- "and ...i made this...its a soul pendant" -she child?s tail wagged more-

Ammy Spiritor: "There was fighting?" she asked truly ignorant of what has happened when in weapon mode.

Mirius Pojoris: "Oh?" She examined the pendant. "Well, ain't that somethin'. Ye've learned more than me in a day than I have in me entire laugh." Mirius laughed.

Vixie Rivergem: "Well...yes there has. Igneous lost an eye from Luna attacking him. And you also assaulted him and...just a lot has been going on." Vixie sighed. She did not like thinking back on bad things.

rawsha: -she grinned and looked out over the lake, then looking back at her mother- "how you been mama?"

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy stopped swimming and stood in belly deep water. "I did that? But, that would have gotten you guys into a lot of trouble." she held herself for a long moment. Her eyes went greet again.

Vixie Rivergem: "I don't know. Igneous has been acting kind of weird...." She didn't realized Ammy changed again.

Mirius Pojoris: "I've been alright. Lil' bored I guess. Kinda tired of battles fer some reason. Other than that ye I been alright." She kissed Rawsha's forehead.

Ammy Spiritor: "Am-am been activated." she whispered.

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie had a discontent look at hearing that. She was getting full of worry for Ammy and what was going on with her. She didn't like seeing her like this.

rawsha: -she nuzzles against her mother and smiles- "good mama" -she smiles and sits down beside her mother looking up at the sky, she grins a she hasn?t gotten to look at the stars in a nights now...she just relaxes there-

Igneous: Igneous moved for the lake and stood some in ankle deep water watching the water and vixie and ammy. He was listening to mirius and rawsha now.

Mirius Pojoris: "Lookin' at them stars again?" Mirius grinned.

Ammy Spiritor: she went back to swimming though thoughts of Mirius seem to drift through her mind.

Vixie Rivergem: She just continued swimming around on her back humming to herself more. Her eyes closed as she would lose herself in her own little world.

rawsha: -she grins softly- "yes ma'ma.....missed lookin' at them a few nights...something might change" -she laughs a little, but she looked up toward a few clusters of stars she always liked gazing at and smiles-

Mirius Pojoris: "Somethin' might change? Like what?"

rawsha: "...father taught me...stars die....the sky changes...new stars..be born"

Igneous: Grinned hearing rawsha. "Anyone tell you are a pretty pet when wet Vixie?" Igneous called out softly. "You as well Ammy."

Mirius Pojoris: "The be true, but stars do live an awful long time y'know? Billions n' billions of years n' stuff."

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie opened her eyes and looked over to Igneous, giggling. She also blushed. "Thank you, Sir." She smiled a moment. "Would you like to join us"

Ammy Spiritor: "Am-am not pretty. Am-am just weapon." she stopped swimming and shied away hiding behind vixie.

rawsha: "but mama what if.. I don?t get to see the sky one night...and one of my favorites die?" -she grinned a bit, she was at the same time being serious but also teasing a bit-

Mirius Pojoris: "I understand, sweetie. It be like on of them once in a lifetime things." She rubbed Rawsha's back and chuckled.

Igneous: "Water and I do not mix well Vixie, my pet. This is as far as I go in the water."

Mirius Pojoris: "is that why you smell, Iggy?" She said outloud to him, of course joking.

Igneous: "I'm not the one who smells like fish." he poked back at Mirius.

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy just kept in the water near vixie and away from Iggy. She wouldn't believe she was pretty. Killer's aren't pretty.

Mirius Pojoris: She laughed. "Gee. That's what ye say to girls as a pickup line?"

rawsha: -she smiled up at her mother and then looked over watching Vixie and Ammy a moment then she looks at Igneous and her mother-

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie turned around to Ammy and looked to her eyes. "Ammy, you are pretty." She said sweetly.

Igneous: "I don't pick up girls Mirius. If you haven't noticed, I simply take them." he chuckled and looked to the stars for a moment.

Ammy Spiritor: "Me, pretty." she looked down at her wet fur, thin body, and brandings.

Mirius Pojoris: "Oh I see. So, ye like taken' girls who smell like fish then to compensate fer yer own smelliness."

Vixie Rivergem: "Of course." Vixie smiled. "I think you are very beautiful, Ma'am."

Igneous: "Very funny." he muttered.

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy blushed which could be seen on her skin under the thin wet fur now.

Mirius Pojoris: "Just jokin' with ye, Igneous." She chuckled.


rawsha: -she just stays there looking up at the stars, she was listening to them all though-

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie giggled. "Do you think I am pretty, too?" she asked Ammy.

Ammy Spiritor: She nods.

Mirius Pojoris: "So, tell me. How much ye like me, Igneous?" She asked as she ran her fingers gently through Rawsha's hair and gently rubbed her ears more.

rawsha: -she leaned her head against her mother, smiling up at her as her hair was played with she just relaxed there-

Igneous: He raised a furred brow for a moment or two. "I recall liking you a lot Mirius."

Mirius Pojoris: "Really, eh? Why's that?" Mirius wasn't even looking at when as she spoke. Just looking down at her daughter then wrapped her arms around Rawsha gently.

Vixie Rivergem: Vixies plashed a tiny bit of water at Ammy and swam off slowly giggling.

rawsha: -she nuzzled her mother and closes her eyes listening to them but she was enjoying snuggling there for now-

Igneous: "Eh, I have a thing for Spiritor women. Though Riiviis are starting to make the list."

Ammy Spiritor: Giggles a little and swims after vixie.

Mirius Pojoris: "Gee. I am flattered." She chuckled and gave a nuzzle to Rawsha's ears. "Ye like that Vixie don't ye?"

Vixie Rivergem: With a grin Vixie would start to swim a little faster after seeing Ammy following her.

Igneous: "Could always have a little fun back in my tent and give rawsha a sister or brother to play with." he grinned staying ankle deep in water.

Ammy Spiritor: Would tickly Vixies feet if she got them.

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie giggled with her feet being tickled. So would start to swim a bit faster.

Mirius Pojoris: "Speakin' of tents. I be meanin' to ask ye. Mind if Ammy stays in me tent again?"

Igneous: "Growing a bit attached to her eh? That'll be fine, though I may require you or her in my tent some time." he just grinned with not so nice thoughts.

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy would keep, feeling happy and not remembering anything bad.

Mirius Pojoris: "Sounds delightful." She snickered. "But hey someone needs to be keepin' her from going haywire anyways."

rawsha: -she was staying there near her mother, she was happy and relaxed-

Vixie Rivergem: With a grin Vixie would dive under the surface and swim as fast as she could. And she was great at swimming, too. Especially with that sleek fur of hers.

Igneous: "Indeed." he was frowning now for a long moment. "Spiritor Labs should have killed her as a pup. She's too unstable for weapon use."

Ammy Spiritor: She just swam around looking for Vixie now.

Mirius Pojoris: "If she was dead. Then I wouldn't be here either, y'know. She took out some lethal parasites that were in me body and saved me from bleedin' to death another time." She'd give Rawsha a light squeeze in the hug. She would also start rocking her gently back and forth.

Igneous: "I am grateful for that. Just she's mentally warped, before I even touched her." Moving back to dry land he looked at the lake. "Time go my pretties."

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie would come up under Ammy to grab her feet to start tickling them.

Mirius Pojoris: With a sigh she'd stand up holding Rawsha in her arms. "And what'd ye to do her?" Mirius looked to Igneous.

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy eeped and swam away running up the sand and laughed and stopped when she was near Igneous. "Sorry master." she sat on the sand being quiet.

Vixie Rivergem: Surfacing she saw the others at the shore. It must have been time to go. Vixie swam to the shore and walked onto the sand. She shook her body to get most of the water out of her fur.

Igneous: Igneous stroked Ammy's damp crimson hair for a moment and fondled a wet ear. "Normally when I break someone, simple pain is enough to keep them in line. But Ammy, Ammy is stubborn and tough, so I went for inner pain. I took those she felt safe with and made them turn against her in her mind. Quite effective too. A bit too effective." he sighed.

Mirius Pojoris: She didn?t like hearing that at all. "Well, ye better be careful. Too much of that crap and she'll probably kill us all and no hope of stoppin' her."

Vixie Rivergem: "Are we leaving, Sir?" she asked after shaking off most of the water.

rawsha: -she holds on to her mother, as Mirius got up she looked up at the sky a moment...then she would look over at Ammy and Vixie, she motioned a paw toward the two of them and used air magic to dry them off and leave their fur soft, but brushed down-

Igneous: "Yes. It is time to go back to camp. You may stay with Mirius again if you wish." Igneous wasn't too happy with what he did to Ammy either. He saw how she had snapped with Mirius. "And keep Ammy with you for sure." He sighed and walked back to the camp by himself. He knew they'd show up. His men would insure that.

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy shivered a little when air dried but looked happy again. "Master like me?" she asked a little confused.

Mirius Pojoris: "I think he does, Ammy." Whether she was right or wrong. It would at least make Ammy stay happy. "And looks like ye get to stay with me as well, Ammy. All of ye are welcome to stay in me tent again if ye want. Igneous looks like he'll need some alone time again."

Vixie Rivergem: With her fur all dry and soft she smiled. "Thank you, Rawsha." She grinned. Then put on her dress that Mogriil had gotten for her. She was all ready to go now.

rawsha: -she clung to her mother softly and smiled at Vixie- "yom welcome" -she laid her head on her mother shoulder-

Ammy Spiritor: "Why need alone time. Me bad again?"

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius kept her arms wrapped around her daughter and nuzzled her head affectionately. Then started to walk towards the camp at a casual pace, not bieng in a hurry. "It ain't you, Ammy. He's just been kinda screwin' up a lot. Probably blamin' himself er somethin'."

Ammy Spiritor: "Oh." she followed Mirius. "He smell like my sister Amaretto." she said in a small voice.

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie walked along by Ammy's side gently and quietly humming a sweet little tune just to comfort everyone there.

Mirius Pojoris: "Smell like yer sister? I was wonderin' what the hell that smell was." She laughed.

Ammy Spiritor: "Sandalwood, Burnt Amber, and Redwood. These three shall mark the darkness within thee." she murmured.

Mirius Pojoris: "And a lil' rhyme....I'll have to remember that." Mirius gently rocked Rawsha in her arms with a smile. "Wonderin' what he been doin' around Amaretto."

Ammy Spiritor: Nearing the camp, she spoke in that eerily straight and to the point voice. "She's keeping tabs on her property."

Mirius Pojoris: "Ah. I see. Remind me not to sell me soul." That thought kind of bothered her a lot. Still she wondered what the hell Igneous was thinking of when he was doing all that.

Ammy Spiritor: "Maybe he thought he could get more powerful." ammy said seeming to see her thoughts. Her psionics were going a little funky or two.

Mirius Pojoris: "No doubt. He's done a lot of recklessness." She sighed as they moved on into the camp. Mirius would lead them towards her tent.

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy would dart in and sit on the floor by Mirius bed. "Give foot massage?" she smiled again being the odd but perfect little weapon.

rawsha: -she looks at Ammy a moment then looks up at her mama, she could tell something was up with Ammy's powers...she yawned softly and a paw moved up the pendant she wears and she just smiles-

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie followed on in and sat down in a cot in the tent. All that swimming sure did make her tired.

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius sat down on her cot with Rawsha in her arms. "No, Ammy. Ye don't need to give me a foot massage. But I could do with some huggin's and stuff when we sleep." she grinned.

Ammy Spiritor: "ookaa." she smiled and looked around. She stood and gave Rawsha a hug, then Vixie a hug. "Family. My family." she sounded a bit possessive.

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie giggled and returned a hug to Ammy. "I enjoy having you as family, too, Ammy. Friends are family after all."

Mirius Pojoris: "Family." She grinned and looked down at Rawsha. "Ain't that right, Rawsha?"

rawsha: -she watched Ammy with a smile, with another yawn?those deep-sea blue eyes closing- "yes family is good"

rawsha: -she thought about Igneous and then looked up at her mother- "Does Master Igneous have family mama?"

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy slid onto the cot with Mirius and snuggled up with her, seeming to purr a bit.

Mirius Pojoris: MIrius would get up and move Rawsha over to a cot for her to sleep in. "I don't know, Sweetie. I have no idea. I guess I'll ask him later. Or ye can if ye want." She grinned. Then would set Rawsha in her own cot and put a blanket over her to tuck her in.

Ammy Spiritor: "Most of my masters have no family. Power gets in the way." she said with ease, stretching on the cot and looking comfy.

rawsha: -she curls up and smiles up at her mom...sleep starting to take her over..- "maybe if not...we can...get him a family." -the young lupe closes her eyes and cuddles up as she?s tucked in- "night, mama"

Mirius Pojoris: She kisses Rawsha's forward. "Maybe so. Who knows. Good night me lil' angel." Mirius would move back over to the cot that Ammy was on and snuggle into it with Ammy.

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie relaxed on her cot and pulled a cover over herself with a yawn.

rawsha: -she curled up and was sleeping within the next few moments-

Vixie Rivergem: Soon enough Vixie fell asleep, too.

Ammy Spiritor: "You have nice daughter Mir. One day I have one too." she leaned into Mirius and enjoyed her smell.

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius would have to explain that to Ammy later. She was just too tired to do that now. She'd wrap her arms around Ammy to hug her close. "She is nice. I be blessed to have her. Now all I need is a mate." She chuckled.

Ammy Spiritor: "Oo. I know one. you can share Fleety with me?" she offered. Ammy was fluctuating between her and am-am.

Mirius Pojoris: "Share Fleet?" Mirius blinked. Mating with a Wolf? Especially Fleetian Wolf? That just sounded insane to her. She may not kill him, but mating with him was another thing. "Uhm. I'll think about it."

Ammy Spiritor: "Someone sounds worried." she cooed in Mirius' ear.

Mirius Pojoris: "Well...I mean he's a Wolf. Y'know?" She said oddly and a bit hestitantly.

Ammy Spiritor: "Who care about last name. Shi like me and I am spiritor." she snuggled closer to mirius. "Maybe I find way to get Igneous back from sister?"

Mirius Pojoris: "Hm." She sighed. "I'll think about Fleet. Alright? I ain't givin' gauruntees er anythin'. And if ye get Igneous back from AMaretto. Maybe he'll cut ye a ton of slack er somethin'."

Ammy Spiritor: She thought about that for a long moment. "Gonna be hard. Sister no play nice."

Mirius Pojoris: "After seein what she did to Iimiidiina ye. I can tell."

Ammy Spiritor: Yawning she gave mirius a nuzzle of the neck and murmured sleepily. "I think we are going to be fine."

Ammy Spiritor: Soon she drifted off into sleep with little cute yips as she chased something in her dreams.

Mirius Pojoris: "Now look who's speakin' all positive." She smirked and gave Ammy a kiss on the forehead. She'd fall asleep with Ammy in her arms.

N.P.C.: Another afternoon sets on the Outback and the army camp of Igneous. A lot of injures soldiers are coming back as the Den Army is pushing harder on the forces, though many of the front line units are fighting back like demons and even advancing, feeling relief in hearing Igneous' orders to show the Lupinossai what the we are made of. Meanwhile, in the camp, Mirius would be inspecting six new recruits for her unit. Igneous has started to teach Rawsha dueling magic, and Ammy is watching the duels with Vixie and Luna.

Luna Felblade: *AJ was sitting next to Vixie, as she didn?t like Ammy. She watches the duel curiously. Every so often her acid green eyes looked at Ammy with a stony stare*

rawsha: -Rawsha has been watching and listening to Igneous' ready to learn as always she stands waiting for his instruction-

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy sat very still on her knees watching master. She was happy to see him with an apprentice. She did feel Aj's stare, but simply smiled at her every time Ammy looked over.

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie sat by Luna and Ammy just humming a little tune softly to occupy herself along with Ammy and Luna.

Igneous: Igneous stood in his usual robes and looked at Rawsha. "Dueling or fighting with magic is not artful, fancy, or perfect. You have little time to think. Little time to perform each component of the spell correctly, and you will be in pain from injuries. So, you will need to learn to short or cross the ritual/power gap quickly."
Luna Felblade: *AJ wanted to be down there with her father, not with Ammy. Her tail twitches in irritation, but she did not move from her seat*

rawsha: -Rawsha nods to him- "yes Master" -she listened to his words an understood-

Myrlene Wolf-Spiritor: Lene didn't know how she did it. She had managed to follow Suukaa to an area near the camp. After a few hours of watching stragglers and patrols, she used some alchemy to whip up the right type of clothing, gear, and weaponry most of the humans were wearing though she did make some of the weapons a bit finer to indicate she had a bit more training and wealth. Now she was standing with 5 Drow males in an inspection line hoping to get enlisted into the enemy army. Her human form showed no
Myrlene Wolf-Spiritor: Lupinossai traits.

Ammy Spiritor: "You want learn magic?" Ammy asked Aj with a small grin.

Luna Felblade: "If father wants me to." *AJ said coldly.*

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius was in her new armor. It was some lightweight metal that'd cover most of her body from slashing attacks, but not piercing. Her paws and head weren't covered, though. She had a short sword sheathed on her right hip, a combat knife on her left thigh with a pistol holstered beside it. And a different rifle that was semi-automatic and more accurate and better than the previous rifle she was given. The strap holding the rifle to her back went across her torso.

Igneous: "Now then. One word spells can be used really well in combat, but if you lose your voice, you are severely handicapped. Now then. We will use your affinities Rawsha to develop quick casting. Attack me."

Ammy Spiritor: "Ookaa." Ammy giggled. "Master good teacher." she swayed a little where she sat in tune with Vixie's singing.


Mirius Pojoris: She held her paws behind her back as she approached the five drow and the one human. Her eyes looked them all up and down closely. "So, all of ye are the ones who are suppose to be me new recruits, eh? Who's good at what or are any of ye good at shield'?"

shield

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie grinned at seeing Ammy's little swaying with the tunes she kept humming. To her it was nice to see a happy side of Ammy.

Luna Felblade: *AJ glare at Ammy and tries to freeze her tail*

N.P.C.: Three of the drow proudly said, "Archery." The other two cried. "Close combat!"

Myrlene Wolf-Spiritor: Lene looked at the other five and just smirked. "Sharpshooting! Sword Dueling! and Magic!"

Igneous: Igneous slammed an orb of water at Rawsha while she was charging up. He avoided the lightning with ease. "Too slow!" he barked.

Mirius Pojoris: She thought about that and shrugged at hearing the drow. It was better than nothing. Though hearing the human she walked over to her and stood in front of her. "Sharpshooting, sword dueling and magic? Really now? And yer skilled in all these things?" Mirius raised a brow at the female human

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy's tail froze then thawed as her green eyes glowed. "Little miss should behave or master gets angry. "

rawsha: -she frowned as the water orb hit her and looked at him as she shook some water from her fur- "yes master I can see that." -she thought about how to improve her casting speed-

Luna Felblade: "Why should I care what you say, stupid?" *AJ is always mean to Ammy. She blamed Ammy for how Luna was.*

Myrlene Wolf-Spiritor: "Aye sir!" she stood a full 5 ft tall and proud. She had two pistols, a short, nasty looking double edged sword, and what looking like a casting bracelet for magic. "Names Ashe, Sir." she saluted.

Vixie Rivergem: frowned some just feeling those negative vibes between AJ and Ammy, but she kept humming just trying to keep the mood somewhat light.

Igneous: "Think about the process. Why did it take you so long to summon the lightning? Are you trying to imagine a perfect bolt? Or a bolt that will kill ugly or not. Try again."

Ammy Spiritor: The green eyes glowed again. "I am masters weapon. Anyone who messes with me, I kill." she said in a light, airy tone with a bit of happiness in it. She gave another bounce and wiggle to the music.

rawsha: -she thought about the orb and went to summon it from her paws but instead brought it down from the sky in the form of a bolt to attack him from over head-

Mirius Pojoris: blinked and thought for a moment. "Ashe? What the hell kinda name is that?" To her it really was a pretty weird name, but she shook it off. Couldn't say the last name she came up with sounded good, too. "Nevermind that." Mirius eye her equipment. "I hope all of ye equipment is more efficient than the crap they give 'round here."

N.P.C.: The drow all looked at Ashe for a long moment. "The human b***h is lying. No human's that good."

Luna Felblade: "You wouldn?t kill me. I am fathers favorite." *AJ growls. She tenses and tries to pounce on Ammy. She had her claws out*

Igneous: Igneous grinned as the bolt lit up his shield. "Better. It's like the one word spells. Mental imagery of what you want the elements to do can be sped up when changing the form or source you pull it from. Again. Different spell."

Vixie Rivergem: Kill...Vixie didn't like hearing that word at all. Then yipped when she saw Luna go after Ammy.

Myrlene Wolf-Spiritor: Ashe just side. "Drows would know accuracy if it bit them. See them dummies over there in the practice ring?"

rawsha: -she pointed at him and an orb of flame appeared flying toward him from her paw as she in her mind said "fi'igoo"-

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius held up a paw to the drow telling them to shut it.

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy would simply reach for Aj's neck, and if successful, slam the lycan into the ground without moving from her position.

Luna Felblade: *AJ gasps as she is slammed to the earth. She tries to get back to her feet to pounce on Amy again*

N.P.C.: Five practice dummies, spread out, and five hundred feet away stood really menacing.

Mirius Pojoris: "Why don't ye show us what ye can do, Ashe." She grinned.

Myrlene Wolf-Spiritor: In a blink, Ashe had both pistols drawn, and shot two of the dummies in the head before she started moving in a very fast run born of the Force and Fleety's bloodline. Pistols were holstered while she drew her sword, lopped two dummies in half, and shattered the last dummy with disintegration alchemy. She sheathed her sword and left the carnage.

Igneous: Igneous countered with water and sent a bolt of lightning her way."

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy would keep a firm hold on Aj's neck, holding her to the ground. "Silly child." she squeezed a bit hard on that neck.

N.P.C.: The drows just gaped.


rawsha: -she brought up her air shield and braced herself, she sent a spray of ice shards toward him empowered with her air magic to move them faster-

Luna Felblade: *AJ gasps for air and struggles. She sent a pulse of water at Ammy, hoping to get free*

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius smirked and chuckled and looked back to the drow. "She sure told all of ye." She looked back to Ashe. "I'm stunned by yer skills, Ashe. I'll be glad to have ye with me group."

Igneous: Igneous rolled away, though he was tagged by some of the shards. Coming onto his feet, he grinned. He ran right at her, full speed, his feet kicking up stone shards at her.

Vixie Rivergem: "Ammy, please don't kill her and AJ please don't attack Ammy." Vixie pleaded innocently. She never liked seeing either of them fight.

Ammy Spiritor: Lets go as she is squirted, but doesn?t move.

Luna Felblade: *AJ gasps to catch her breath and growls at Ammy. She sees red as she lunges for Ammy's throat with her claws and fangs out*

Myrlene Wolf-Spiritor: "I'll be more than happy to serve under you sir." she bowed once. She was wearing long sleeves though that hid something her magic couldn't hide. The red and blue dragon tattoo's, but she made sure the sleeves were down at all times.

rawsha: -she motioned quickly to the earth and brought up a shield of earth around her to block the incoming attack, she took only a couple hits from the stone shards and sent an orb of water at him-

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy falls backwards from the tackle and just laughs with a cold eerie tone. She aimed a head but for Aj's muzzle hoping to break it while was clawed in the shoulders.

Mirius Pojoris: A nod and she paced back and forth and stopped in front of them. "Well, then. Looks like yer all goin' into me group. Ye all should get prepared. I'm sure we got an assignment to be doin' very shortly." She grinned.

Igneous: Igneous dodged getting a bit wet by the water ball as he sent a blast of fire at her back side, testing her ingenuity.

Luna Felblade: *AJ lets out a half form yelp as a sick snap was heard. She backs away and whimpers as her bottom jaw hangs loose. She lets out an odd scream*

N.P.C.: Speaking of which, Mirius, drow officer came up to her. "Got our marching orders boss. These then new meat?"

Ammy Spiritor: She sat up laughing more and stood slowly stalking for Aj, those emeralds glowing.

Vixie Rivergem: "No! No!" Vixie quickly got up to quickly get between the two. "No more fighting please!" she cried out.

Myrlene Wolf-Spiritor: She studied the drow officer. Seems he was a second to Mirius. She filed that away.

rawsha: -she grinned and tumbled out of the way taking only minor damage from the fire, she quickly came up to a half- kneeling position out of the tumbler and threw his own fire blast back at him adding her own fire and air magic-

Luna Felblade: "Father!" *AJ yells the best she can*

Igneous: He took a few steps back sizzling with singed fur that regenerated. He was about to attack again when he heard the commotion with Ammy and Aj.

Mirius Pojoris: "Yep. Got some fresh recruits and an impressive one. Ain't too hard to pick the odd one out." She chuckled. "What are the orders?"

Ammy Spiritor: "I hunt. I kill. She attacks me. She dies." Ammy growled with no hint of sentience or feelings except rage.

Luna Felblade: *AJ backs away and whimpers as she holds her broken jaw*

N.P.C.: "Human eh?" Looks Ashe over. "She'll do. We are going up against hostile front line units."

Vixie Rivergem: "No, no, no, she doesn't deserve to die. She's your daughter remember, Ammy?" She would try to keep Ammy back from AJ. "She's your daughter!"

Igneous: "One moment Rawsha." he walked over to the fight. "Ammy! Haat!" he shouted.

rawsha: -she saw the commotion with Ammy and Aj...and came to her feet she kept her air sheild up but, she knew Igneous needed to tend to things-

Mirius Pojoris: "Ooooh, goody. Get everyone ready. I'll met ye all right outside the camp entrance." She grinned. Mirius walked off to stand outside the entrance of the camp waiting for her group to meet up with her.

Ammy Spiritor: Something shimmered around her negating the command from Igneous, but Vixie's words seemed to be putting her rage feral mind into lock down for the moment. She was frozen stiff with confusion and growly. "She hurt me. She hurt masters weapon. I kill."

N.P.C.: "Yes sir. You six follow me. We leave soon. Hope you don't mind dying today." he spoke with his back to them already in a fast paced march.

Luna Felblade: *AJ whimpers and sits down. The right side of her jaw is broken.*

Myrlene Wolf-Spiritor: Well this was going to get interesting. She soothed Moonshines worry over their link and followed orders, marching with the others.

Vixie Rivergem: "Please don't kill her. Please...." Vixie would try to look her right in the eyes with a pleading look. "You've always wanted to protect family."

Ammy Spiritor: "Fam...fam...family?"

Vixie Rivergem: slowly nodded to Ammy. Hopefully she was getting to Ammy. "Yes, family. Don't you remember?"

Igneous: Igneous closed with Ammy and used his affinity for metal to draw out a long metal staff that he smashed against Ammy's side. "You will obey me!"

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy fell to the ground with a grunt holding her right side. "I am sorry master. Am-am be good." she whimpered.

N.P.C.: Soon the whole unit of 24 drow and one human were outside by Mirius.

Sitalkis: :::the dakini was at odd ends while her husband was back at his family castle, so she was out exploring, she sensed a mixture of familiar magics and new ones that seemed.....odd, so she glided along to investigate:::

Luna Felblade: * AJ whimpers and watches her father*

Igneous: "I am having a hard time believing you Ammy." staff still in paw he went to Aj and knelt. "Let me see what she did to you my daughter."

Luna Felblade: *AJ's jaw, on the right side, hung loose. It is starting to swell as well*

Mirius Pojoris: She grinned at all of them and then looked at her officer. "Ye gave 'em all the briefing I hope."

Ammy Spiritor: Hearing Igneous she growled and stood. "She's my daughter!" her eyes were glowing gold. Ammy sprang for Igneous.

Vixie Rivergem: "AJ attacked Ammy, Sir...." She gasped and then tried to grab Ammy to hold her back, but she wouldn't be successful.

Igneous: Gently he touched her jaw and healed it. Something heavy and angry hit him in the back pushing him into the ground.

rawsha: -she watched them, seeing Igneous form the metal staff she observed, the young lupe was always learning and since she had been shown how to use magic the correct way.. she watched Ammy spring for Igneous-

N.P.C.: "Aye. Simple really. We attack a group of 30 Den Fang Knights that have pushed through."

Luna Felblade: *AJ whimpers and see's Ammy tackle her father. She shoots an ice spike at Ammy*

Sitalkis: :::she reached the outskirts of the camp and looked on confusedly as drow and humans and lupes in a mixed group seemed to be preparing for battle with other lupes:::

Ammy Spiritor: That caught her off guard, nailing her in the ribs and rolling Ammy off of Igneous leaving her gasping for air. A lung was punctured.

Mirius Pojoris: "Numbers are fair enough. C'mon everyone." Mirius began to walk forward and pulled out her rifle. Well, crap. It only had an iron sight. Oh well. She continued onward anyways

Igneous: Standing up, Igneous growled. His topaz gem glowing in his eye socket. He leaped onto Ammy and proceeded to beat her until the metal staff bent.

Vixie Rivergem: "Sir! No please!" Vixie had the nerve to budge in and tried to hold Igneous' arm that he was using.

Myrlene Wolf-Spiritor: Ashe followed and said a silent prayer in her mind to Canis and Lupis to forgive her for any Lupes she killed today.

Sitalkis: ::::she recognized the one called Mirius as one she had healed before, a sometime ally of Ammy's, or so she thought....so she slowly materialized out of the aether in front of Mirius::::: greetings one called Mirius....Sita wishes to know what you do here?

N.P.C.: The drow officer shouted out the marching count and stopped seeing Sita. He drew his sword and several in the ranks were starting magic spells.

Igneous: The touch of Vixie seemed to snap Igneous out of his rage. He looked down at the battered and beaten Ammy and the bent metal staff in his paw.

Luna Felblade: *AJ is silent where she sits*

Mirius Pojoris: "Oh shhh..what the holy hell!?" Mirius jumped back and fell on her bottom and quickly got up a second later. She wasn't use to people just popping up in front of her like that. "Everyone hold on!" She glared at Sita. "What the heck are ye doin' here!?" shouting in a tone as if calling Sita crazy in other words.

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy gurgled, and gasped in pain. Her muzzle and jaw broken. A few ribs broken and that punctured lung was not helping.

N.P.C.: The drow officer looked skeptical but held up a dark hand to stop the others.

rawsha: -she watched as Ammy rolled off hurt, then just stayed back watching Igneous been the...crap out of Ammy, but she would move toward them once he snapped out of the rage-

Vixie Rivergem: "AJ attacked Ammy, Sir! Please, she didn't mean it! She even warned but...b-but AJ still continued assaulting her." Vixie didn't like putting the blame on AJ, but she couldn't let this stand either.

Myrlene Wolf-Spiritor: Ashe watched with interest. She hoped Sita would be safe, and she moved closer to the drow hoping not be to seen.

Ammy Spiritor: "Is this true AJ?" he looked right at AJ.

Igneous: "Is this true AJ?" he looked right at AJ.

Luna Felblade: "Yes father. She made me mad."

Sitalkis: ::::she looked confusedly from the drow with the weapons and the others with growing magics and lastly at Mirius::: Sita smelled confusing magics and the scent of warfare and violence to come, she wished to see if the lupinossi needed healings as before....she thought she smelled friend Ammy here also.....is this wrong?


Sitalkis: :::she wished her husband were here to explain things, she never quite understood why mortal beings fought amongst themselves:::

Igneous: He looked down at Ammy. "You are not to hurt my daughter no matter what." looking right at AJ he growled. "Do not tempt her. She can kill you before I know it." Igneous proceded to heal Ammy.

Luna Felblade: "I am sorry father. Please forgive me."

Felix Starke: :: Wishes were magical things.. and so were flying horses... which is how he showed up this time.:;

N.P.C.: "You, uhm, know this being boss?" the drow officer asked Mirius. The others were getting antsy not sure if she was enemy or ally. If she was enemy they had problems.

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy groaned as the magic mended things and not in a nice fashion.

Mirius Pojoris: "Sita, a innocent thing like ye shouldn't be 'round here. This'll all have to be explained some other time, got'me? And it was true. She wouldn't shove Sita away in any other situation, but this was war and she didn't need someone like her to get harmed. Especially if Ammy or someone else found that out. She'd be suffering for it later.

Sitalkis: ::trying to grasp the concept of civil war was beyond her, how could war be civil, how could one lupinossai fight another if they were all one race, why could they not wish to heal those they had harmed if they were kin? her face reflected this confusion.::::

Igneous: Igneous stood and looked about a bit mad still.

Luna Felblade: "How can I make it up to you father?"

rawsha: -she was standing close by watching them all-

Sitalkis: :::she looked up at the sound of the flying horse and broke into a smile:::: husband Felix!

Felix Starke: Sita.. getting in to trouble again Princess?

Igneous: "You!" he growled at a bored human soldier on guard detail.

N.P.C.: "Yes sir?" he snapped to attention when Igneous called to him.

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie stood there silently now. She's been courageous enough and felt if she did anything else she might get into trouble.

Igneous: "This b***h is all yours for the day. Make her scream, squeal, beg, I don't care. Have your way with her and pass her around camp while your at it." he left Ammy on the ground.

Ammy Spiritor: "No master. Please, master. I'm a good Am-am. I'm good. I'm good." she cried.

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie cringed at hearing that. "Sir? Is there no other options?" she asked very softly.

Sitalkis: :::she looked confusedly from her spouse to the one she thought an ally::: Sita thought she smelled friend Ammy and strange magics and violence and she wanted to heal the lupinossai who might be hurt, but the one called Mirius says Sita should not be here because she is innocent?

Luna Felblade: "What about me father?"

Mirius Pojoris: "Uh...yeah, I know her...." She replied to the drow. "Uh..If yer her husband ye might want to get Sita outta here before one of ye get hurt. This is a battlefield not some walk in a park." she said to Felix.

Igneous: "As for you Aj. You want to be my daughter but you have this Luna in you, yes? You have a visitor coming. She'll deal with you. Go back and sit with Vixie." He stalked for Rawsha next his red eye, and topaz gem glowing menacingly. "Let's continue."

Sitalkis: ::::she glided over to her husband's side, petting the flying horse he had arrived on.:::

Felix Starke: :: he quirked a brow, and then silently offered her a hand so he could pull her up onto the horse:: You really shouldn't be here Love. It's dangerous.

Luna Felblade: "Yes father." *AJ quickly goes and sits back with Vixie*

rawsha: -she stayed quiet waiting for her teacher to finish, she defiantly didn?t want to make him mad, or she might be back in the tent..she nodded to him and her shield came up around her- "yes master"

Sitalkis: but if this is a battle field, should Sita not be here to heal the wounded that will come?

Vixie Rivergem: It seemed whatever she'd say wasn't going to matter. She looked back at Ammy and frowned feeling so sorry for her. Vixie wished she could do more to help Ammy and even shedded tears.

N.P.C.: The soldier nodded with a grin. He wasn't going to be bored today. Walking over to Ammy he grabbed her tail and drug her away to his tent.

Ammy Spiritor: She clawed the ground as she was drug away, whimpering that she was a good girl.

Felix Starke: Not at risk to yourself. :: he frowned:: Besides.. I thought we had plans to meet with Liss tonight.

Igneous: Igneous started throwing lightning bolts at Rawsha rapidly mixed in with water balls, and a few iron arrows.

Myrlene Wolf-Spiritor: Ashe tensed feeling something tug at her. She could feel mom was in trouble. She almost went for Ammy, but to do so would blow her cover and run the plans for the rescue.

Sitalkis: :::she nodded obediently then queried softly:: may Sita come back after the battle and heal the wounds then? she thought that the meeting would not happen until after beloved Felix had returned and he had not returned yet, yes? ::::her loopy logic was as knotted as ever:::

N.P.C.: The soldier disappeared into his tent with Ammy.

Ammy Spiritor: She vanished within.

Felix Starke: After yes.. We'll have the bat watch. He can fetch you if you're needed.

Sitalkis: ::::she smiled gratefully, took his hand and hopped up onto the horse behind him, then leaned around him to wave farewell to Mirius:::: Sita will return to heal the wounded when her husband's watch bat says it is safe!

rawsha: -she yipped but used the volley of multiple attacks as practice, she would dodge most of the lightening got hit with a ball of water and sent her own volley of lightening at him mixed with a few fire orbs, the iron arrows one hit her and she sent ice arrows his way as she tumbled out of the shot of the other iron arrows-

Luna Felblade: *AJ is quietly watches the practice*

Igneous: He growled being hit in the legs, but the dueling was bleeding off his anger.

Felix Starke: :: He shook his head and turned the flying horse away from the battle.::

N.P.C.: The drow officer looked at Sita, her husband, then his men. The lady was nuts.

N.P.C.: "Form ranks." he ordered and started the marching again.

rawsha: -she stood and watched him as she already had an idea for his next attacks when and if they came-

Amaretto: Something cold, and evil had a chill wind blowing into the camp as Amaretto walked past the perimeter.

Igneous: "Pain!" he barked hoping to hit her with that curse.

Mirius Pojoris: "Well, uhm...I'm gonna be honest I'm as confused as all of ye are...but let's continue." She motioned a paw forward and she began to walk forward again.

Myrlene Wolf-Spiritor: Ashe followed again, feeling very disturbed, but kept moving. No one said this plan of hers would be easy.

Luna Felblade: *AJ stays quiet*

N.P.C.: Soon, they were in a field and a large group of armored lupes, plate armor, and some chain mail here and there, were moving in fast pace for them.

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie just sat there by AJ. "Please don't attack Ammy anymore, AJ...." she said softly. A chill ran down her spine from that eerie feeling of something with a strong presence nearby.

Luna Felblade: *AJ shivers to* "I understand."
rawsha: -she growled at first then before his curse had time to hit she put up block around herself and barked toward him- "Ewska"

Amaretto: Looking like a sinister version of Ammy with a glowing sliver of crystal imbedded into her fore head, Amaretto gazed upon everything with tri-colored eyes. She paused to watch the dueling.

rawsha: -she grinned and sent a large fire orb toward him-

Igneous: The caught him by surprised rendering him mute and the fire orb set a robe sleeve on fire. He doused it with water with a grim look. Rawsha was getting better.

Luna Felblade: *AJ looks around and sneezes.*

Amaretto: "Having fun playing with your toys Igneous?" Amaretto asked with a silky voice that would make most demons wet themselves.

Igneous: He would have responded except he was mute. Igneous just simply nodded.

Amaretto: "Where's this child I am supposed to deal with?" she asked bored.

Luna Felblade: *AJ stays quiet. She sat next to Vixie*

Igneous: A tilt of his head at Aj/Luna.

rawsha: -she grinned, but then saw the copy of Ammy walk up, she kept her sheilds up but would watch her master, she watched him and would speak toward him- "Vaa"

Mirius Pojoris: Noticing that they were here and there spread out she stopped. "Shoot the ones chargin' and then we fight the rest of 'em close up! Fighters form a defense for our rangers! Don't let any of 'em through!" Mirius pulled out her rifle and began to fire at any soldiers that were coming close to them, she'd leave the farther soldiers to be picked off by the archers. Best to take as many of them out as much as they could with range before the close quarter combat.

rawsha: -she just grinned she was amazed at herself-

Amaretto: Amaretto raised a furred brow in amusement. "I thought your taste was in Spiritors, not filthy little lycans. Whatever." she walked right up to Aj, and inspected the girl.

Luna Felblade: *Aj looks at Amaretto with acid green eyes.*

Igneous: His voice returned he nodded to Rawsha. "She is touched in the head with two personalities, maybe even two souls. I want you to separate them."

Vixie Rivergem: stared at Amaretto and noticed she looked like Ammy. Vixie couldn't help but ask. "Who are you?"


Amaretto: The tri-color eyes of red, green, and gold, blending all of the moods Ammy has ever been swallowed up those acid green eyes. "This one has spirit. Was she the one I felt ripping into my sister Ammy?"

Luna Felblade: *AJ growls at the name Ammy*

N.P.C.: The Fang Knights charged with war howls. The lead lupe went down from a head shot by Mirius. Arrows from the Drows darkened the sky like a rain of death.

Myrlene Wolf-Spiritor: Ashe pulled her guns and fired, aiming for weak points to drop Lupes and trying not to kill them.

N.P.C.: Two more Fang Knights went down from Ashe's shooting. They were not dead, but would wish they were.

Igneous: "Yes." is all he said to Amaretto.

Amaretto: "Well aren't you the little tiger." she patted Aj's cheeks. To Vixie she grinned, showing very pointed demon teeth in her muzzle. "I am Amaretto. Ammy's darker half."

Luna Felblade: "I am happy your splitting me from my useless half."

Vixie Rivergem: "Darker half?" She said quietly too herself. There sure was a lot she wasn't aware of. Vixie went quiet again, frowning.

Amaretto: "Charming. Come with me then and I'll make sure your free of your pathetic side." she stood and made a come hither motion to Aj.

Igneous: "Go with her Vixie, and help Amaretto with whatever you need." his voice seemed a bit strained and odd.

Luna Felblade: *AJ follows after Amaretto. She seemed to be happy that she is getting rid of Luna*

N.P.C.: Those fired arrows rained down killing four more Fang Knights. Some of the Fang Knights returned fire with arrows and muskets.

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius would continue firing shots. The repeated loud cracking noises throughout the area from the rifle every time she pulled the trigger. More shots were landing with this rifle than the other. "Fighters charge!" She said as soon as she saw them pulling out muskets and arrows. "Ranger provide as much cover as ye can!"

Vixie Rivergem: slowly nodded and followed after AJ and Amaretto. She wasn't liking any of this one bit.
Myrlene Wolf-Spiritor: "Guide my hands to wound and not kill." she chanted in a whisper firing more at the Fang Knights.

N.P.C.: Arrows on both sides rained down. More screams as 4 for drow were pinned to the ground dead. The armor of the plated Fang Knights were holding up against the arrows, but not against the rifle or the pistols. 4 more Fang Knights went down. All four dead by Mirius and Ashe.

Myrlene Wolf-Spiritor: Ashe moved up closer by Mirius and took aim again.

N.P.C.: Musket and bows were put aside as the range was now close enough for swords and the Fang Knights charged into the Drow.

Amaretto: Amaretto took Aj to the big tent and stepped inside. "Take a seat."

Luna Felblade: "Yes Ma'am" *AJ sat on the floor and watches Vixie and Amaretto.*

Mirius Pojoris: A few arrows landed right by Mirius. "Phew...close ones..." She said noticing the arrows. Everyone being too close and clumped together she couldn't get any good aim with her rifle. "Time fer some brawlin'" She smirked at Ashe and put the rifle around her back. Then drew out her short sword and charged forward.

Igneous: Igneous panted heavily after Amaretto went into the tent. He seemed to want her. His heart and soul aching for her. He leaned on his knees while standing. Her presence was intoxicating to him.

Myrlene Wolf-Spiritor: Ashe holstered her pistols and drew her sword. "Canis, Lupis, forgive me their deaths." and lene put aside herself, took on her full guise as a human soldier and closed ranged with the Fang Knights.

Amaretto: Amaretto walked around Aj like a shark grinning. Her eyes glowed watching the lycan child. "Yes, yes. One body, two souls, two minds. Fascinating. What is your name?" she asked Vixie.

rawsha: -Rawsha was watching them she stayed quiet as Amaretto took Aj off..she looked back at Igneous watching him, she tilted her head seeing him act very different after Ameretto went into the tent, she finally spoke- "Master are you alright?" -the young lupe just watches him-

Igneous: More panting. "No." he shivered. Lupis he wanted to be all over Amaretto and yet he despised her.

N.P.C.: A few more Fang Knight fell to drow scimitars. Two large erthrii were headed right for Mirius, and two more for Ashe. Wolfs Angels swinging with the promise of death.

Myrlene Wolf-Spiritor: Ashe cursed, ducking one swing from one Erthrii, and parrying the massive blade of the second Erthrii on her. Moonshine was growing worried over the link the shared, and she did her best to shut out her mate. If she didn't focus, she dies, he dies.

N.P.C.: The soldiers tent that Ammy was drug to after her beating and healing had a few human soldiers and few drow lined up waiting for their turns all making bawdy jokes and plotting their fun. The soldier within the tent sounded like he was having a lot of fun.

rawsha: -the young lupe, had only an idea of what was going on in his mind,, it had to do with adult things she just stayed quiet as she stayed near Igneous but still gave him his space-

Igneous: "You are...doing well...Rawsha." He was slowly trying to fight off the affects of selling his soul to Amaretto.

Mirius Pojoris: Her attention went to the two large erthrii coming for her. She swung her blade that barely parried his sword as the first one swung it at her. She pulled her pistol and fired shots at him, but the second erthrii would get a slice into her right side. The armor protected from most the slashing attack, but a good bit of the blade still got into her and she howled. Mirius would try to fire a few shots at him as well with the pistol.

rawsha: -she would move over to him finally laying a paw on his arm she smiled at him- "Pi'iwu'u Master...and thank you" -in her mind she imagined a more peaceful time for him..hoping to send that feeling to him, she did after all look up to him and thanked him for what he was teaching her, even if she didn?t know what he had planned for her-

N.P.C.: The one erthrii fell to the close range gun fire from Mirius. the other swung back at her. The erthrii with Ashe were circling her and attacking form both sides.

Myrlene Wolf-Spiritor: Ashe parried one more blow but the curved hooks on the wolfs angel did it's job wrenching the sword out of her hand. The second erthrii, behind her, didn't quite connect with his slash and clipped her in the head with the flat of the blade sending her ears ringing and a thin line of blood to run one eye.

Igneous: That touch and image helped him to rise above the pull of Amaretto though he was still shakey.

Luna Felblade: *AJ looks around and sneezes*\

Mirius Pojoris: With that slice in her side it was hard to stand and seeing that other blade coming at her she quickly fell onto her back to avoid getting sliced in two. She fired more shots with the pistol at the other erthrii attacking her. Sure was good to have a pistol for backup, but reloading in the middle of a fight was going to be a pain.

Amaretto: She felt Igneous resist her charms and just grinned. In her paws she formed a soul shard. "Bring me that large tub." she spoke to Vixie.

Vixie Rivergem: A small and silent nod, Vixie went over to the tub and picked it up. She carried it over and sat it down by AJ and Amaretto. Vixie backed away to let them do whatever was going to happen.

N.P.C.: The erthrii fell back from several close range shots as well. The two around Ashe closed in to cleaver her into two.


rawsha: -she smiled at him and stood there near him now- "Master do you wish to do something else, or keep teaching me today?...i can go help with chores somewhere if you wish"

Amaretto: "Excellent." she stepped forward and yanked some hair and fur off of Aj and dropped it into the tub. From out of thin air she summoned various chemicals and powders to fill the tub. Lastly she placed the shard onto Aj's forehead. "I call the soul and mind that is Aj to leave the weak and pathetic flesh of Luna."

Luna Felblade: *AJ yelps as her hair and fur are yanked. Luna's normal golden eyes appear as AJ goes into the shard. Luna looks around confused*

Myrlene Wolf-Spiritor: Half blinded, Ashe saw her predicament and did what came to mind. She clapped her hands and dropped the ground causing and eruption of dirt and grass to blast out at the two erthrii.

N.P.C.: The two fall back but are just stunned from the impact against their armor.

Igneous: "Maybe a break and some food would help." he slowly straightened up.


Amaretto: She grinned with glee dropping the shard into the tub. In an eerie chanting voice, she started the spell of creation for creating a living body, slowly move around the tub and Luna now in precise movements. A chill bite in the magic of the whole camp and beyond would be felt as she corrupted the magic weave to do her bidding.

Luna Felblade: *Luna looks confused. She tries to run*

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius slowly got up. Seeing those two erthrii stunned by Myrlene she went to fire at one of them as she ran towards them with her short sword in her other paw, but no ammo was in the clip. She holstered the pistol and ignored her own pain. She went to stab one of the erthrii which would go for the lower spine.

Ammy Spiritor: Within that tent, where the body of Ammy was being ravaged and played with, she had her withdrawn her mind into a small corner cowering, too afraid to resist the human soldier. The bite of that chill power though hit her soul and she felt her sister near by and near her daughter. Here eyes flashed green then gold.

N.P.C.: The spine was severed.

rawsha: "then too the mess tent...i will get you food Master" -she grins at him, just offering to be a good servant, she had grown up a bunch since she came here...she shivered some as she felt the pull of the magic in the air, her short fur standing on end a moment before she shakes the feeling off and looks up at him-

Myrlene Wolf-Spiritor: Ashe stood and felt something vile touch her. A small shiver she drew her pistol knowing she couldn't fake a killing of the Erthrii with Mirius so close. She sent a bullet for the visor opening.

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie body shivered at seeing what Amaretto was doing. She didn't want to be here, but Igneous told her to be. A soft whimper escaped her.

N.P.C.: The erthrii died from the bullet to his brain.. The drow were making short work for the last of the group, losing two more drow.

Amaretto: Luna would be held in place by magic that restrained her tight. Slowly, a body took shape from the ingredients within the tube, taking on Luna's form and appearance. A crystal shard in its chest though.

Mirius Pojoris: Letting the spine-severed Erthrii dropped she panted and stood there a moment holding her side. "These brutes tough, eh?" she grinned and snickered to Ashe.

Igneous: He twitched feeling the vile magic being worked and gasped.

Luna Felblade: *Luna whimpers in fright* "Why you making clone of luna?"

Mirius Pojoris: though that feeling of corrupt and strong magic sent a shiver down her spine and even made her wound seem even minor for a moment

N.P.C.: The soldier in the tent went from pleasant moans to screams of horror and pain then went silent. Those waiting outside of the tent looked inside then stumbled over each other to get away from what they saw.

Myrlene Wolf-Spiritor: "Aye." her head hurt like hell. She'd never been in true battle, and the adrenaline was singing through her.

Amaretto: "Rise, rise, rise, and live AJ. Twin to Luna. Now separate in mind, soul and body!" she cackled and howled in glee still dancing.

Mirius Pojoris: While her troops were finishing off the others, she took out her pistol and began to reload it. As well as looking for any survivors near.

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy stepped out of the tent, blood dripping from her muzzle. Her face, and the front of her fur covered body was drenched in blood. Not her's but the soldiers. She knew her sister. Knew that vileness. She started to walk for the big tent, nearing Igneous and Rawsha.

Myrlene Wolf-Spiritor: Ashe hoped she would see the injured ones she shot. Please, canis don't let her find them.

Igneous: He looked up at the shouting and screams and saw Ammy walking. A different Ammy. A very pissed off Ammy. "Stop." he asked weakly.

Luna Felblade: *AJ studies her new body*

Amaretto: Soon the spells were done and Aj would be ready to wake up. Amaretto stiffened feeling her sister nearby and grinned. She fed influence into Igneous. ~Kill her, Igneous. Kill her, and you can lay with me as much as you like.~

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy didn't look at Igneous and ignored his orders. She was headed for the big tent.

Igneous: Igneous shook with sickening desire and the flood of control on him. She had his soul. He had to obey. Growling he fired lightning at Ammy.

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius looked to the battle that was dwindling and shouted. "If there are any survivors! Bring 'em here!" After shouting she looked at her right side. There was a lot of blood there. "Y'know any healin' magic, Ashe?" She looked to the human.

Myrlene Wolf-Spiritor: "Yes sir." she clapped her hands together and touched Mirius' side working to heal her. Mirius may feel something familiar about this magic. Something similar to Ammy's magic.

Ammy Spiritor: She twitched as she was hit in the back but didn't fall. She turned and glared at Igneous.

N.P.C.: Soon two wounded Fang Knights were brought to Mirius and Ashe.

Amaretto: ~Hit her again, Igneous. Kill her.~ She sent her magic deeper into the Spiritor Mage. She wasn't focused on the others in the tent anymore, but she radiated a chill whilst she was commanding him.

Mirius Pojoris: After being healed by Ammy a bunch of times, something did seem familiar. Mirius even gave Ashe a weird looking stare, but no word was said. When the healing was done she looked at the two wounded. "Go check that big erthrii over there." She pointed to one nearby. "Got'em in the lower back. Might be dead. Might not." Saying no harm in checking would just be a contradiction. Mirius grinned at the two wounded Fang Knights. "So far two of ye are survivors..." she snickered.

rawsha: -she looks up seeing Ammy coming near them with blood all over her, her jaw dropped slightly...she saw Ammy wasn?t hurt and wasn't taking orders she stayed near Igneous but not in his way, she watched as he went to attack Ammy, Rawsha knew there would be killing if Igneous got to Ammy..she looked at him and barked out- "Master Haat..please don?t fight" -she imagined a wall of stone between Ammy and Igneous...out of sight out of mind perhaps-

Vixie Rivergem: Feeling the radiating chill Vixie shivered more and wrapped her arms around herself. She didn't like being near Amaretto at all.

Myrlene Wolf-Spiritor: Ash just nodded, wiping blood from her eye and using her sleeve to stop the bleeding of the cut on her forehead.

Igneous: The next bolt of lightning hit the wall Rawsha made.

rawsha: -she put her paw on Igneous- "Ammy is good, Master please.....please don?t hurt her" -she looked up at him-

N.P.C.: The two Fang Knights grimaced in pain and knew they were done for.

Myrlene Wolf-Spiritor: The Fang Knight that was stabbed was still alive when she found him.

N.P.C.: "Pain. So much pain." he could smell Ashe coming up to him and he twitched. "Lady Lene? Please run. Flee. You'll be captured." his voice was weakening.

Myrlene Wolf-Spiritor: She twitched, heart thumping with fear that the Fang Knight may be heard. With a twitch of her hand she crushed his head with the Force and dropped to her knees feeling sick. She had to stay safe and hidden she reminded herself.

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius curiously looked over to Ashe and watched her closely.

Igneous: Panting more and even sweat beaded on his fur. He was trying to lower his paw. Trying to keep from blasting the wall apart to get to Ammy.

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy's glare softened a little as she felt the sting and chill of her sisters magic. It seemed to get worse near Igneous.

Mirius Pojoris: Seeing her kill that Fang Knight she glared. "Ashe?" There was a note of anger in her voice.

Ammy Spiritor: She stepped around the wall and approached Igneous. "Sister has master. Master is not himself." she cooed softly slipping into Am-am mode.

Myrlene Wolf-Spiritor: "He was babbling insanely. No good for information. I gave him an honorable death." she gritted out not looking at Mirius.

Amaretto: Her eye widened feeling Ammy near Igneous. She was growling under her breath. ~Kill her!~ the chill surged out more.
[
Igneous: "I...I.... must....kill...her..." his voice straining as he was losing his grip over his body. A paw raising and crackling with flames.

rawsha: -the child lupe would blink up at him as she say Ammy come around the wall...oh she hoped she wouldn?t be in trouble for this one- "Master Igneous, Soopree!" -she commanded...she hadn't used this before and didn?t know what would happen but hoped he would just take a nap and wake up a bit baffled later-

Igneous: The spell hit him, numbing his mind, letting amaretto gain more control.

rawsha: -she growled out seeing it hadn?t worked in her favor- "Ammy run please!"

Mirius Pojoris: She glared for a moment. Something didn't seem right. "That is for me to decide. Next time ye will not kill another wounded. Ye will bring them to me, understand? And if ye don't I it ain't gonna be pretty." Mirius focused on the two wounded. "So tell me. How many more of ye are out here? Any special plans happenin'?"

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy was now within Igneous's grasp and the crackling flames on his paw were cooking and singing the blood on her fur. "Master.." she cooed and touched his arm calling upon something dormant in her. The omega in her came out.

Myrlene Wolf-Spiritor: "Aye sir." she muttered.

N.P.C.: "A lot of us, bitch. We'll be taking over your front lines soon." the both laughed with fear.

Igneous: Soothing energy flowed into him, loosening his body, and snuffing the flames on his paw. Rawsha's spell took full affect now shoving him into a deep sleep. He swayed and fell.

Ammy Spiritor: She caught his arm and guided Igneous down to the ground gently, stroking his cheek.

rawsha: -she frowns, but saw the spell had worked, she moved to Igneous' side and stayed there with him she looked at Ammy and smiled-

Amaretto: ~What?~ "What!" she howled in anger, destroying the silence spell on the tent in rage.

Amaretto: ~Rise, and kill her!~

Mirius Pojoris: "Bitch? I take that as a compliment y'know." She snickered. Then went to grab one by the neck with her own paws. "But ye ain't gettin' very far when I'm around are ye? Ye all fallin' pups who cain't walk." But that sounded surely like that'll be making a push against them. "But y'know I wouldn't be makin' smart comments. Yer life is in me paws. Literally." Mirius smirked.

Ammy Spiritor: The chill air and vile energy seemed to fade from the area Ammy, Igneous and Rawsha were in. ~Master is mine, sister. You leave. You bad. Very, very bad.~ Ammy sent that message loud and painfully clear to Amaretto.

rawsha: "he?s alright Ammy." -she kneeled at her teachers side...just watching over him, she had a sick feeling in her stomach as she felt Amaretto's vileness nearby, she just stayed there-

Amaretto: She left the tent enraged. "Igneous is mine!" she howled in rage at Ammy. "I have his soul. He belongs to me!"

Vixie Rivergem: just kind of stood there quietly too herself. She didn't know what to say or do or where to go. So she just slinked over into the corner of the tent being to herself.

rawsha: -she growls at Amaretto as she sees her again but the feeling wasn?t as bad in the pit of her stomach with Ammy there,.she stays near Igneous-

N.P.C.: "Is that so. I thought you wanted us alive." he chuckled. "You can't stand against us. We have allies coming and you will all die."

Myrlene Wolf-Spiritor: She slowly stood and walked over to Mirius to listen.

Ammy Spiritor: "Master be safe. Master with me. I save you master. Master is good. Am-am was bad. Now Am-am make it up." she stood slowly and turned to face Ameretto. "You bad. You trick master in giving up soul for power. You no deserve master. He is mine. You leave."

Amaretto: "Or what?" Amaretto was getting closer, a glowing black mist surrounding her.

Ammy Spiritor: "Last chance." her voice changed.

Amaretto: She fired a choking cloud of deadly curses at Ammy.

rawsha: -she imagined a shield over Igneous and herself and just held it there as the clear shield glowed with a slight gold aura, she wasn?t taking any chances in any wild spells or curses hitting her or him-

Mirius Pojoris: "Oh, I just wanted ye alive fer fun. I like to play with me food before I eat it. And I never said I was going to keep you alive ferever." She bared her teeth with a grin. "So, tell me what kind of allies? Just more Fang Knights. How about that sissy of an Alphrans ye have. Why don't he come out n' play? And ye best tell me or I'll let Igneous get to torture ye. And ye know he don't play nice."

Ammy Spiritor: Ammy clapped her paws throwing up a glowing shield of azure energy. "I injured you last time Sister. Don't make me kill you. Yasmiir bolt." she summoned her spells to mind, all of them. A surge of power bloomed in the magic then was sucked into Ammy. She fired the yaamiir blast in a form of a tight beam right at Amaretto.

Vixie Rivergem: silently looks over to where Luna and AJ was to see what they were doing. She didn't know what would happen with there being a separate AJ and Luna now and definitely she hoped it wouldn't mean more danger.

Amaretto: The curses evaporated and so did the lower half of Amaretto and a swath of land 10 feet wide by a mile long behind her. She started to disintegrate and howled in rage. "I'll kill you when I come back!" she howled at Ammy and blew away into fine dust.

N.P.C.: "Dragons. Mages. Machines. And more." he laughed already going dizzy from blood loss.

Ammy Spiritor: "I'll be waiting sis." Ammy spoke in a tired voice the lapsed back to Am-am. Kneeling she nuzzled Igneous neck smearing stick blood all over him.

rawsha: -she blinks softly and lets the shield around her and Igneous fade away as well as the wall she had putt up before, she then looks at Ammy..she watched Ameretto go to dust then she looks at Igneous-

Mirius Pojoris: She dropped him and looked back to the others. "Ye all can get yerselves back to the camp. I wanna have a lil' fun with these two before I leave." She smirked. That could've meant anything really.

N.P.C.: The drow nodded and took their fallen and any gear they strip off of the dead fang knights and retreated back to camp.

Myrlene Wolf-Spiritor: Ashe didn't move but stayed. "May I help in the fun?"

Igneous: He gave a slight grunt, starting to wake up.

rawsha: -she stayed there near his side sitting on the ground-

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie left the tent to find out what happened and gasped. She was glad she wasn't out here when all this happened. Vixie hurried over to Ammy, Rawsha, and Igneous. "What happened!?" she said out loud in near panic.

Ammy Spiritor: In creepy voice, Ammy spoke. "Sis go boom!"

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius rolled her eyes. "Just turn yer head the other way. Seems ye got upset from killin' that lupe over there." She glared at Ashe. It wasn't words that gave it away, but how Ashe acted.

rawsha: "Master Igneous is fine...he just...took a nap." -she heard Ammy, but looked to Igneous-

Myrlene Wolf-Spiritor: "I'll watch." she was stubborn. She cursed herself for acting weak.

Vixie Rivergem: "Go...boom?" not liking the sound of that she whimpered and kneeled down beside Igneous.

Ammy Spiritor: Nuzzling Igneous again. "Am-am good girl. Keep master safe from sister. Take his soul back."

Mirius Pojoris: "Ye don't follow orders do ye?" She glared at the two wounded and made sure her pistol was loaded.

Mirius Pojoris: though what she said was to Ashe

Myrlene Wolf-Spiritor: "It's kept me alive around dumb commanders." she lied.


Igneous: "Why do I smell burnt blood?" he asked, eyes still closed.

Mirius Pojoris: "Calling me dumb?" Mirius peered over to Ashe. "Why are ye here? Why are ye fightin'?"

Myrlene Wolf-Spiritor: "Didn't call you dumb, yet. I like testing my commanders." she said lying more. "I am here for the money."

Mirius Pojoris: "Just like everyone else." She aimed the gun at the two wounded. "Got any last words?"

N.P.C.: The both looked at Ashe for a long moment. Something about the human seemed familiar. "May you both rot in hell."

Myrlene Wolf-Spiritor: Here eyes widened slightly hoping they wouldn't say anything.

rawsha: "Ammy has blood on her fur and you were going to burn her Master Igneous.."

Ammy Spiritor: "Am-am sorry. Am-am dirty."


Igneous: "I was going to burn her?" he sounded quite confused.

Mirius Pojoris: She shrugged and grinned. Then fired two shots each in the direction of the two wounded. None of the shots hit them, though. Mirius simply holstered her gun and began to walk away as if they died and didn't say a word.

rawsha: "you were trying to attack her Master...i....well i cast a spell to put you to sleep" -she watches him as she stayed there near him-

Myrlene Wolf-Spiritor: Ashe wasn't sure what was going on but followed Mirius now.

rawsha: -she felt a bit afraid she didn?t know if he was going to be mad at her or not-

Igneous: "Thank you. I don't feel lust anymore for the demon."

rawsha: "Ammy ...got rid of her Master"

Mirius Pojoris: "Too bad they weren't worth livin' right, Ashe?" she crossed her arms and smirked as she kept on walking back towards the camp.

Ammy Spiritor: "She only gone for now."

Vixie Rivergem: "You had lust for her, sir?" She asked confused.

Myrlene Wolf-Spiritor: "Whatever you say sir." she grunted.

Igneous: "I..I... just wanted to bed her so fiercely when she was here."

Mirius Pojoris: She stopped and looked to Ashe "What? Would you have rather me take other actions instead?"

Vixie Rivergem: "Had a lot of guys say that around the Den before about me." She giggled trying to lighten up the mood.

Myrlene Wolf-Spiritor: "Why show kindness leaving two behind that'll say who you've lost and what your tactics were." she tried to keep the tremor of thanks out of her voice and tried to keep the carefully constructed grudge up.

Igneous: He sat up stiffly, feeling sticky with blood, sweat, and exhaustion. "Yes, Vixie. You are quite the thing in bed." He looked at Ammy with the blood all over her. "Just what have you been killing?"

Mirius Pojoris: "Who said I was bein' kind? And if they believe I lost then that'll mean the enemy slacks up. Besides, ye probably joined the worst organized mercenary army in the universe." She chuckled. "I'm probably the only one who knows what they're doin."

Ammy Spiritor: "Am-am no like sleeping with others. Me neuter, kill human who mate with me."

Myrlene Wolf-Spiritor: "Do you now?" she kept following.

Vixie Rivergem: giggled and blushed some. Then stopped and looked at Ammy wide eyed. That was unbelievable of Ammy just said.

Mirius Pojoris: "I'm the most successful here. Ask anyone in the camp. My group is a force to be reckoned with." She grinned and started walking again.

Myrlene Wolf-Spiritor: "I guess I hired on to the right unit then." she followed more, her fore head had a nice cut along it with drying blood.

Igneous: "I see." he sighed. "Help me up. I need food. Vixie go take Ammy to the lake and clean her up. She stinks."

Mirius Pojoris: "I intend on keepin' me troops alive. But if ye ever see me let captives live. Don't say a word. Got it?" She glared over at Ashe.

Vixie Rivergem: "One clean Ammy coming up." She smiled and took Ammy's paw. "Let's go get clean, Ammy."

Myrlene Wolf-Spiritor: "Fine." she grumbled. Inside she was sighing with relief though the ones Ashe had killed would haunt her.

rawsha: -she looks at Igneous and stands up, she was hungry she would go with him to the mess tent-

Ammy Spiritor: "But. But. Me stay with master. Me good girl."

rawsha: -she helped Igneous to his feet-

Igneous: Being helped up, he looked at Ammy. "Go. Clean up, then you two come to the mess tent. Thank you rawsha." He swayed a little. He took a look at the destruction that marked where amaretto was. "By Fen, Ammy. You are a weapon still." he grinned.

Vixie Rivergem: "We'll come right back, Ammy. Don't worry. We are just going to get cleaned is all, okay?" she said reassuringly and in a comforting sweet voice. "You aren't being punished."

Ammy Spiritor: "Ookaa." she sulked and let herself be lead away.

Mirius Pojoris: "By the way. Might wanna heal that wound on yer head. Don't want yer brain slippin' outta yer noggin'." She chuckled.

rawsha: -she would move with Igneous and helped him balance and would started toward the mess tent..she didn?t want him to topple over-

Myrlene Wolf-Spiritor: "My brain is fine." she clapped her hands and touched her forehead healing the wound.

Igneous: With the help he made it to a table in the mess tent and sat down.

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie would begin to hum as she would lead Ammy to go for the lake to get them both cleaned up.

rawsha: "I?ll get you food and drink Master.." -she would head off to get the best food that was being served-
Ammy Spiritor: She followed Vixie but was starting to cry as what she did was coming back to her.
Igneous: "Thank you."
N.P.C.: The rest of the troops were back in their tents recovering.
Mirius Pojoris: "And I thought I was a bitch." Mirius laughed commenting on Ashe's attitude.

rawsha: -she came back with a large platter with large cuts of meat, cheese and breads,...seemed she took time to pick out the best and what ever drink, a lot of food and water for the rest of them when they came back and plates and cups for everyone, she would serve him up some of everything and water- "there you go Master"

Igneous: He ate hungrily. Worry gnawed at him. He couldn't recall much of what he'd done for the last two months.

rawsha: -she then served herself and poured her some water as she sat down near him at the table...she looks at him seeing the worry on his face, she would let him eat...he looked like he needed it-

Myrlene Wolf-Spiritor: "Eh. You should see me around my husband." she groused.

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie slowed and hugged Ammy tightly. "Ammy, what's wrong?" asking in a comforting voice as best as she could.

Ammy Spiritor: "I..i.. killed..."

Mirius Pojoris: "Husband? Gee, I've never been mated. It must suck." She snickered and walked on as they were close to the camp and about to enter it

rawsha: -she ate some of the food and looked over at him again after a little while- "Master are you alright?" -she was worried about him-

Igneous: He kept eating and trying to recall hazy memories. He had an apprentice named rawsha. and a few slaves as well.

Myrlene Wolf-Spiritor: "A dragon for a husband is alright."

Myrlene Wolf-Spiritor: She froze as those words lift her lips, never to come back.

Mirius Pojoris: She raised a brow. "A dragon? How the hell'd ye get a dragon as a husband? He still ye and horde ye up er somethin?"

Igneous: "Rawsha, right?" he rubbed his head. "How long have I been acting odd?"

Myrlene Wolf-Spiritor: "Never mind." she said clamping down on panic.

Vixie Rivergem: "You killed? Who?" She rubbed Ammy's back

Ammy Spiritor: "Human. Gutted him. Enjoyed his blood. Warm feeling and smelled so good."

rawsha: -she smiles at him- "yes I?m Rawsha" -those deep-sea blue eyes watching him- "mama said you had been acting strange more than a month before you took us and brought us all here Master" -she remembered her mother saying something about it-

Mirius Pojoris: "Oh, c'mon. Tell me. " She grinned.

Igneous: He rubbed his head. "When did I get an army?"

Myrlene Wolf-Spiritor: "I fell in love with him. He likes to make metal things. We even have an infant. A baby boy." Shut up Lene.

rawsha: -she thinks a moment and logic tells her- "probably two or so months ago.. maybe more or less...Master"

Igneous: "Who am I at war with?"

rawsha: "the..-she started to tell him...but looks over at him and blinks- "Master would you like me to go find mama? she should be back soon..she might be able to tell you more"

Mirius Pojoris: "How the hell'd ye have a kid with a dragon?" That was a legit question from Mirius.

Igneous: "That may help." he held his head.

Myrlene Wolf-Spiritor: "Magic fixes a lot of things."

Vixie Rivergem: Vixie whimpered at hearing that. "What happened to drive you to kill him?" She slowly began walking for the lake with Ammy.

Ammy Spiritor: Following Vixie, she gulped. "I felt sis doing something to Luna. I don't remember from there."

Mirius Pojoris: "I'm not sure what to honestly say about that." Mirius really didn't. Not a smirk or anything on her muzzle as she entered the camp with Ashe. "Well, go do what ye need to do. Get washed up er get food er whatever ye need."

rawsha: "I?ll go get her....I?ll see if I can find her...."-she left her dinner there and ran off out the mess tent entrance...she knew her mother should be coming back from patrol soon, she would move toward the entrance and sniff the air...she grinned as she followed her mothers smell..and would soon see her near the gates- "mama! mama!" -she would move toward her-

Vixie Rivergem: "I know what happened...." Vixie frowned. "Do you want me to tell you, Ammy?"

Mirius Pojoris: Mirius then grinned seeing her daughter She kneeled down and opened her arms for a hug. "Rawsha! How's me daughter doin'?" grinning widely.

Myrlene Wolf-Spiritor: "Sure boss." she went away to the wash areas, still nauseous with fear.

Ammy Spiritor: "Okay." she didn't sound so confident.

rawsha: -she hugged Mirius but then looked at her and spoke quieter...so that troops wouldn?t hear- "mama something?s wrong with Igneous...someone named Ameretto was here and Ammy made her go away..made her go boom as Ammy put it....and Igneous...hes in the mess hall...he doesn?t remember things.." -she whispered most of it very fast hoping her mother could keep up with her talking-

Vixie Rivergem: As they got to the lake she'd take off her clothes. She was going to get in the lake too to wash off her fur. "Well, I'm not exactly all of what happened....but she made two Luna's....and she took AJ out of Luna. So, now I think there is literally an AJ and a Luna..." All of it was said uneasily as she moved into the lake.

N.P.C.: The Drow officer was at the cleaning area an
