[OOC: Nowait. It doesn't work like that. xD You can escape, fine <3 But you can't like...have the dust. xD I'm a Dust Wielder, one of the last of a rare speices. We're born with the dust and have it until we die. You can't take it from us and use it. It's like...part of us. That's like if I stole your arm and started using it to fight. xD *sowwy, has actual like...legends and stuff as part of my OC. That I probably should have said earlier but...didn't. xD]

Scia walked into camp and nearly straight into the battle. Backing up a little, he listened to whoever it was attack fiercely.

[yeah im never gonna use it ever, but my axe does have a copycat ability(it always does)]

And with that Ashy disappeared back to her bed exhausted from her fight, she hadn't had to use so much energy in a long time.

"I hope we meet again Sakura Minamino..."

Sakura nodded to Ashy as she disappeared into the night.

Sakura noticed a young man walk into camp and nearly be hit by a sparring couple's blows. More concerned for her comrade's life than Taiye's answer, she took flight and landed near him, pulling him further backward from the fray. "Careful," she said, "or you won't live to fight our enemy."

Scia chuckled. "Sorry. I was too preoccupied to hear anything. And apparently people move their tents around here. I'd memorized their placements before, but got so disoriented that...heh. I'm usually not this...clumsy."

Taiye nodded to Ashy and then looked to Sakura, who had suddenly flown off. She watched her interact with the new recruit that she had never seen before.

Sakura nodded. "It's all right," she said. "Wouldn't want a comrade to fall before the battle's even begun, hmm?" She glanced down at his companion. "What's your name?" she asked the creature. She had always loved animals, and the recent loss of her snake friend had her more sensitive to this than usual.

[hang on here, i said that the blow didnt actually pierce the snakes skin ><]

(d'aww, sorry Ashy, I read it as being beheaded, sorry @o@)

(gimme a slight sec while I think of a name x_X)

[Oh, well, it would have though. It's a snake, if you hit it with an axe it's going to be chopped in half xD It actually wasn't really dangerous....I made it scary looking and hoping you'd surrender. /bad plan *grin* So sorry, I thought it was beheaded too. But hey, it's okay. You can float back from where you came from and talk to us now : )

EDIT: LOL @Scia. xD <3]

Scia held up the silver ball of fur. "Fiamma. She is the one who lights up my day, and helps me through when I can't see even in my mind."

(Shoooooot. gtg eat dinner. -facepalm-)

Sakura gingerly picked Fiamma up from Sciathan's hands. "She's beautiful," she said with a smile as she petted the soft fur.

[Aw, it's okay. Dinner is a good thing, we'll be here when you get back.]

(Back. Ate too quickly.)

"I trust that she is. I'd like to see her, but..." Scia trailed off, laughing. "Here, I think she likes you...You must be nice, too, eh? If she trusts you, then I do, too."

(I spy a lurking Axel.

EDIT: And a lurking Angel.)

Axel does not lurk, he stalks.

Fenrir walked from her tent and looked around, she was still weak from blood loss, and she was not recovering well. Though the soldiers didn't know that part of that was due to Ascellus. It had been a light punishment because she could not risk killing Fenrir, though that might of been a mistake. Only time would tell.

Sciathan winced visibly as the stench of blood flooded his mind. Coughing, he held a hand to his face, muttering an apology towards whoever it was who had just walked into camp. He could sense that the person wasn't bleeding much anymore, but the smell still lingered.

Who was this person who had an immensely strong aura?

<<Oh, and merry belated Christmas, everyone :)>>

-she stared at the one who winced at her smell and she walked toward him, she was starting to envy mortals but she was trying to keep her mortal-loathing image so she decided she should reinforce it.-

"You, isn't a little disrespectful to wrinkle your nose at your superior"

The woman in front of them was the general of their army.

"I may smell like blood but I will have you know that I shed that blood for this army,trying to keep our supplies in tact. Be granted I lost but that was to an unexpected disadvantage and I still escaped with my life to try again later"

"I am sorry," Scia mumbled, flustered. Out of all the people... He made a low bow. "Mi dispiace, madonna. I couldn't see who you are. I am a bit new to the place."

(Curses! I wish I actually can speak Italian.)

Letiel had been practicing archery with Kyari when she felt Fenrir's presence. Immediately she went looking for the general.

She sighed and smiled, the general seemed more alive at least for the moment, when she had first come to this world she had seemed like a statue. Perhaps she was suffering from nostalgia.

"Hello Letiel"

Fenrir stated before she even rounded the corner and she patted Scia on the head.

"Fear not I am not actually mad, Though that may have been a different case not so long ago I guess you mortals are starting to get to me"

Scia bowed again, gratefully. Then he straightened up, alarmed, and turned around in search of Fiamma, who had gone off in a wild game of tag with the General's tail.

"You darned creature...Don't make things worse for this blind fool of a friend," he muttered through clenched teeth.

Fenrir started to laugh, she didn't know why her spirits were high. Perhaps it was to fight the horrible feeling in her gut. The laugh would of been more enjoyable if it didn't sound so dead. The general was suffering. Not from her physical wounds but from deep mental wounds, the air of anguish followed her wherever she went, and it was getting worse. She had started to hide behind it hoping that the army would not see just how much pain she was in.

Taishi sat in the sun on her front reading her book she was still studying in the hopes to help her friends in this dreadful war. She was still nuteral and didn't give a damn who won so longs those she cared for where safe and protected.

Mumbling to herself her hair continusly changing color as did the cloud below her "Fire... water... " she continued to herself she started kicking her feet in the air, ignoring the goings on around her

Fiamma had now turned her attention on Taishi's hair which keep dazzling her with its different colors. Before Scia could catch her, the little creature had already crawled onto the girl's foot and was now staring intently at the clouds below her.

Taishi's eyes went to the little thing on her foot still going through the elements "Light... void" her hair and cloud changing to match, thought she stopped for a moment "Wind" she say her hair turning to a light gray the cloud turning a light blue taking a small part of the cloud she looked at it "Evening" she said and watched as it began to sparkle and handed it to the little creature on her foot

Fiamma clearly thought the cloud was edible; she opened her jaws wide and clamped them down on...nothing. Meanwhile, Scia was in complete confusion. Spells were something he could neither hear nor smell.

Taishi watched as the creature ate the cloud and giggled "Sweet hu" she would say her voice childlike and innocent "I can create the cloud into food... well sweets really" she finished wondering if the creature wanted some more

Letiel spun around the corner and nearly fell over in surprise as she heard her name. "Good morning general! Are you all right?"

Taishi looked away from the creature as she heard a familure voice "Hello miss Letiel... How have you been?" she would ask a pleasent smile on her face

(Back story: http://trisphee.com/forums/showthread.php?t=3082)

Dacorum is struck down just outside of Fenrir's tent, the previous seeming-invulnerability defeated by the corrupt poison of an enemy captain. Taiye came to his rescue at the last moment, but right now he's in sorry shape and might not make it in his current condition.

Espy walked slowly into the camp, and looked at the havoc that had been wreaked. She wandered over to Dacorum, staring for a bit, wondering whether she should heal him or not...

This was the captain who she had nearly attacked a few months earlier...A quick hit right now would do him in.

Instead, she took out parchment and quill, and hurriedly wrote a message to her brother and Cronis.

Taishi who had been sleeping through out the comotion opened her eyes and streched, she sniffed at the air and her eyes went wide as she smelt blood "An attack?!" her voice showing she couldn't believe such a thing would happen after such a short time, but then again this was war.

Standing out of her cloud she ran to where the blood smelt thickest, stopping in her tracks as she seen Espy "What happened?" she asked kneeling next to Dacorum her eyes changing to be emerald "Morning Earth...." she began raising her hands to the sky her hair turning a sky blue "Re-newing sky... you both and I..." she brought her hands close to herself "Trust in me as I trust in you, rebirth and renew" one of her hands went to where Dacorum's heart was "Trust in me as I trust in you, your health reborn... your strength renewed" her voice sounding almost trance like, the hand close to her would begin glowing with a golden light while the one on Dacorum glowed a gentle green, her eyes closing as the viscus black poison slowly began to seep from Dacorum;s form (With any luck) her eyes closing as his skin began to pale slightly, she knew if she told espy what she was doing that she would go againt it but she wanted to save him no matter the cost

Taishi opened her eyes the sun's within her eyes seeming dulled "That isn't normal" her voice faint although she seen a bit of improvement "At least your not going to die Captain Dacorum..." she giggled weakly "We still have a fight to finish" she said remembering the fight in that strange arena they started but never finished.

She moved onto his form her hand moving to her headband removing it, revealing what would seem to be a decrotive gem, but it was pulsating light showing looks can be disceiving, lowering herself she allowed the crystal to touch his forehead "Forgive me captain and please trust what I am about to do" she whispered, with that she closed her eyes "Hand to claw..." she began clasping one of his hand in her own that now had longer nails almost talon like "Claw to hand" she continued doing the same with the oppisite hand "Gem to crystal" with that the crystal started pulsating golden light "Life and light to understand..." she was begining a rite that hadn't been done within her race for millenia and here she was doing it with a non dragonic being "Listen to our hearts, they beat as one..." her form began to glow and engulfed them both "Fused together it's only begun!" with the final word the glowing dulled and taishi floped beside him a gentle smile on her face. She knew he wasn't going to die, like she knew she was not.

She had no idea how the incantation was going to work between them but within two of her race it intertwined there life strings allowing them to call on each others strengths, it was only done in emergence;s and she seen no greater emergencey than saving his life "once more captain forgive me" she said her eyes moving to the skys above, she was exhausted and it was shown

Taishi looked to Dacorum and giggled a little 'You do trust me don't you captain?' her voice appearing in his mind 'I do not fight for the divine nor for the corupt... I am a nutral being, i wish to protect what is dear to me... it seems you are one of them or it wouldn't have worked' her voice once more in his mind, her eyes closing 'We are intertwined until we die, there is no way of undoing, and it wasn't taken lightly... I knew what I done and would have done it again in a heartbeat" the voice in his head gentle and warm, her eyes opened as she looked to the sun once more "gokai dai're uizi" she said weakly, to Dacorum's amazment he would have heard the words 'Gokai be blessed' as if she had spoken in common, the smile remaining "I'll protect you and fight while you mend Dacorum" her voice gentle her hand going to his

You fight to protect, not to destroy or for your own gain. That is why I trust you.

Taishi hears Dacorum worrying about what Ascellus might think about this development, though, as well as the implications of this bond to the execution of his duties -- if he has to protect her to preserve his own life on the battlefield, that could interfere with his ability to protect others.

He hopes that she gained enough of his resilience to make that less of a concern.

Taishi turned his eyes towards him and chucked a little "I can hear your thoughts like you can hear mine" she say quietly as to guard it "I might look like a defenceless twelve year old but I am far from it... i am 582 years old the defender of my race" she say with a short sigh "I know best enough how to make sure not to die so the bond will not interfear with your duties nor mine" her voice was low as she spoke through her exhaustion but she sat up slowly "I am not a frontline soldier, unless I am really annoyed, I normally rely on my magic and on the element" moving her free hand she would help Dacorum sit up using the wind 'if we manage to get stronger, then I'll help you... but the training is going to require alot of trust as you would be riding on my back' her voice would appear once more as she placed the image of a beautiful white dragon with what seemed to have feathered wings
