luna fluttered around the fores for awile in search of sym. so much was needed to be done in so little time. she had to get sym and leave for the palace again. soon after she found sym and the other girls name who slipper her mind...keli...kemi...kezi? she flew over to them quickly and said, "sym we must go, you can stop lookink around now we have a lot of stuff to do when we get back." she turned to sym's accompanyment and said, "you can come as well kezi, if that is what you wish of course i never turn down help to someone in need."

"stop!"

- rosalie stops just long enough to stare at the guard as she hears the elven guard command her before she leaps over his head and up the tree of the elven leaders-

"rosalie, how... nice to see you"

" hmn im sure its about as nice as itll be ripping your throught out snake" -turning i take in the kings advisor- " besides ive got important info for his royalness let him know im here like a good little doggy wont you?" -watches as he runs off before i sigh quietly- " one of these days the lordship will see him for what hes worth. till then i guess i can ontinue to sharpen my tongue on him" - straitens up as a shuffling is heard through the doors in front of me.- "ah rosalie how are you today?" -running up to him a give him a big hug before bouncing back- " i wish i could say im good uncle but it is not so today. i have bad news. do you remember the demon lucifer that valentine defeated all that time ago?" - he ponders momentarily before answering understanding in heis tone-

"yes i remember him... why is he back?" - his face clouds in worry at this troublesome thought-

" yes unfortunately and it look like hes got an army with him" - paces back and forth my eargerness for battle showing-

"relax rosalie explain why you have come to me."

"its your army i seek, that and the armies of the other clans"

"you would have us mingle with the future speakers?"

yes, cant you fell the winds of change? a new time is upon us, fairies are getting along with demons, -smirks- people are learning how t sleep in trees, and you have elves no going to different places; heck you even got the weres moving their forces to gather near here. you cannot tell me that this is not a change. besides tthe demon valentine could hardly harm lucifer before and and lucifer is stronger. so even if we could not harm him directly we can still strip him of his magics, makie him easier, you never know what might happen on that field but i do know what will happen if we do nothing. we will be slaughtered, our trees burned to the ground and every ting will be lost so please call the other clans and let us fight for what we need"- is a little winded after this long speach-

" very well we will do so niece" -and so it was done. tribes were callled; from the east the plains elves who cared for the plains in ways that fairys could not, the north mountain elves, blue skin with large feet, the western elves from the sea, elves that breathe both on land un underwater easily, and the amazon elves from the south, small compact women whom believe in a matriarchy leadership and whose leader is my dear friend. much argueing and outrage issued as i made my speach though it was just pompous bs from people who didnt know what they were doing. but it was decided that they would help and 2500 (martial artists, archers, mages) elves moved deftly into the forest disturbing not even the fairy gaurds luna had posted as we made for the central meating spot.

((emiko_firecaster, we already have an elves leader... they just joined today... they should be starting soon...))

Sym smilied at Kezi, letting her know she could come. Kezi looked a little shy, so Sym tugs on her wrist.
"Come along, sister."

She knows Luna is right, they have much to do. She follows Luna to the castle, mentioning to Kezi that she should make her way there on foot.

Kezi was thankful for the kindness Sym has shown her, but she was worried about being around such important people, Holy Forest, a Demon Lord, the Faerie Queen, and Weres are not people I see in a normal day!

Kezi followed below Sym to the castle, trying to be respectful, but thought that after living in the forest for two years it would be difficult not to stand out, literally like a criminal in a room full of lords and ladies.

((shaylee... check your PM's))

luna was thankful they were finnally on their way home. when they arrived a couple warriors saluted to her. she turned to sym and kezi, "well i'll be going to meet with the fairy elders. sym, you can stay with kezi right now, shell probably get lost in the halls with nobody to guide her."the fairys had no problem with land proportions because fairys were so small and didnt need much space. "well i'll be off now"

luna arrived at her desk and summoned her secretary, "go and summon the elders, we have a great matter to speak of." she waved and the secretary flew off down the halls. luna decided to walk to the room which she and the elders met to give them time to get there first. when she got there to her surprise they were all present. "fairy elders, lucifer has returned and he is more powerful than before. valentine the demonic leader himself said that he could barely fight him off because he was so powerful. we must prepare for the worst case senerio."luna fluttered up to sit with one of the oldest elders in the kingdom. "divinda, you yourself have seen what he can do. you were around when lucifer was demonic leader were you not?" divinda's wrinkled face looked solemn."we lost many fairy during those times..." she said. luna looked around to all the elders. "i have planed for warriors to be set up at posts in the forest and have given them instruction to be on the look out for suspicios activity. we must gather our army, sharpen our swords, and fight until the end because i will not stand for the innocent forest to be lost over something as trival as war!" luna had to sit down out of breath with all that was said. she looked around to the elders who all nodded in agreement. "then its settled." luna said. "i hope with all my heart that we will be victorious. until then..." luna bowed gracefully and left the room to plan and gather her army of warriors.

((Bikari- i haven't gotten anything... resend it?))
((I'm going to set up an OCC thread.))

(( im not going to be on menewsha all day tomorrow for the next few days just so everybody knows. i'll definitly be back by january 2...happy new year! ))

((oops my bad ^^' ))

(( my friend was the one to send you something... It was a character ref for the underground army commander... a weresnake... i'll have her send it again.))

Slowly, Four massive demons walked in, beating their wings impatiently. "You have called us, sire?" The smallest one spoke. "Today, is a fine day, gentlemen," he smiled viciously, stepping slowly out of his throne and down at the gathered demons, "Today, I have not only solved our overcrowding, but also our impatience. Today, I have declared a war." Four sets of wings, sixteen in all, stopped beating. "Surely you are not speaking of the overworld."
"No, Fools, i speak of a threat to our kind. A darkness that not only threatens the overworld, but our city as well."

"What is that? Speak now!"
"Lucifer has shown his face again."
"YOU KILLED HIM. TOOK HIS THRONE!"

"Nay, I defeated, DEFEATED Not slew," Valentine shrugged and stepped down in front of his four brothers, "I injured, mortally, him. but i never slew him. and now, hes back for war. Ready yourselves, we set a perimeter around the forest in the morn."

"Wait a moment, how can you support the overworlders? they have taken from us and taken from us, forcing us to live below in this city."

"I CAN DO AS I PLEASE!" he spun around and grew, towering over the four, "AS KING I DECIDE WHAT SHALL AND SHALL NOT BE DONE! BEGONE AND PREPARE!" he sank into his throne and pulled out a map of the forest, muttering to himself.

((oh no i got that! i thought you meant from you! i'm just having major internet problems at the moment. >.< heh. i'm in the process of adding it to the character list.))
((okay, gloomy. see you then! <3))

Sym showed Kezi to one of the guest rooms.
"I hope you'll be comfortable here."
Sym fluttered her wings and left the room, looking for Luna.

luna quickly gethered her emotions and opened the door to the office of the commander of the fairy army - artimes. artemis was at his desk absorbed in his work when he caught sight of luna and stood up and saluted."how nice to see you my queen."luna bowed and replyed,"i wish it would be nice to see you too, but im here on buisness and i have horrid news." he looked up and said,"what shall i do to serve you my queen?"luna touched his shoulder and looked out the window, "lucifer has returned and we have reason to believe he is more powerful than the last time we saw him. what i need you to do is gather the warriors and tell them of this news. have them sharpen their blades and ready for war. we will be fighting on the side of the down worlders as well." artemis looked at luna with wide eyes obviously trying to take all of the information in. he swallowed hard and looked solemn."yes my queen, right away my queen."was all he said before he saluted and flew out of the room like a speeding bullet to get started on his task given to him.

as luna was leaving the commanders office she caught sym looking around."why hello sym. great timing, i was just leaving to find you. how is our special guest, kezi?"she asked.

Sym turned to Luna. "I showed her to a guest room" she explained. "I figured we had quite alot of work to do, no? Where do we start, Luna?"

Kezi looked around the room that Sym had shown her. Well I'm in a castle... the Faerie Queen's castle no less, in a very nice room, boy does this make me fe- Oh my! Is that strawberries...? I love strawberries!
Kezi started eating the strawberries she had found in the room, thinking, There is a big war coming, I can feel it, but I feel so useless!

"i've taken care of most of the things. i discussed what to do with the elders, and told the commander of the army to ready the warriors. can you think of anything else to do? well...do you think we should see how the other leaders are, just in case?"she spoke everything as it was coming to her mind.

"I think that might be a good idea... but let's avoid going near the demons? He does scare me a bit, their leader does. But i could go contact the weres if you would like? They seem very well natured.." Sym nodded. No way would she deal with Valentine, but she could talk to the weres, it just might take a little stuttering.

"Valentine. It is unacceptable to assume that we will just pledge our forces for this," growled one of the lords. "We must..." Howling, Valentine rose, drawing the blade next to him from where it was resting. "I HAVE MADE MY DECISION AND THAT IS FINAL. IF YOU WISH TO CHALLENGE ME FOR THE RIGHT TO RULE, SO BE IT, IF NOT, THAN LEAVE!" The four demons bared their fangs and dove at him. "Bad choice," he whispered from behind them, landing a blow with the blunt end of his blade, sending them through the ground and into the armory below the throne room. "I have had enough of the insolence, I lead our people as best as i can." His eyes began to spark darkly, diving at them he raised his hand. "Now you have two choices, you either do as you are ordered, or You are charged with high treason."
"Die, filth." they hissed.
"I take that as a yes." he exhaled, a dark black mist dripped from his fingers and touched each of the demon lords, binding them tightly and than flashing, trapping them deep in the ground, surrounded by solid stone, unable to move. "I will speak about this later. after you have thought it over"

luna smiled at her friend and said softly,"well,no matter how that does sound tempting but he is a leader, and he goes through...some...of the same things i do. we must do everything in our power to protect our own kind. and that is what we do. thats why i feel we must include him in whatever we do. do not fret. he doesnt scare me so you dont have to worry. all i need you to do is contact the leaders of the weres and the elfen. i'll deal with the leader of the demons myself." luna nodded.

(( since my last post was not able to be i will post another instead))

- aftermelting into the forest i turned and headed for my forest home hidden with in the forest further in -

"hmn i think a bath is needed" - drawing up a bath i quickly strip down and sink into the water to soak for a while and collect my thoughts-

"hmn what to do about this war... should i join.... or just let things play out. if i stay hidden it is likely i will survive for the next hundred years or so.... but it has become so boring so i think i will join. hmn i think it is time to with draw that once again. lets hope this will be the last time"

- finishing my bath i walk to my home redressing in forest green clothes that dont impede my movements as i walk over to a stump that is next to my home- "Aranel Carnadhiel, echui am guruthos, toltho bann bronadui cuill" -the foreign sylables though strange sounding roll off my tongue effortlessly as a large tremor of the magical plane is felt all around. stands my feet shoulder length apart as i grab something in the air and pull hard my muscles straining as i pull a long and wicked looking staff out of midair-
"hmn this ought to be an interesting battle that the fates have planned out"

After finishing eating the strawberries Kezi climbed into the bed in the room and fell asleep before her head hit the pillow. Kezi hasn't had a good nights sleep in a long time so the nice bed was a dream come true.

And, of course as Kezi slept she also dreamed. In this dream Kezi was walking through the forest as she has done since she was old enough to walk, but this time she was near her home village. Then suddenly men from the village grabbed her and dragged her back to the village. Kezi has had this dream before, reliving the events of her exile, but something was different this time. Everything seemed darker, and when they finally got to the village, it was like shadows were spreading out from the village into the forest. When they got to the center, there was the source of the darkness, all Kezi could she was a man sitting on throne, she couldn't see his face, but the man was radiating evil. Kezi was thrown in front of him, her hand had been tied with rope sometime along the way here. The man stared at her with a piercing glare, and said "Hello, Kezi."

Kezi then woke screaming, covered in sweat, she sat in the bed with her hands covering her left eye, which burned in phantom pain, as she trembled from the nightmare. She got up still trembling and found the bathroom, stripped off her clothes, turned the water on, climbed in and tried to stop shaking in fear.

Sym nodded, took that as a cue to go talk to the were leaders, smiled, and took off.
She found her self at the entrance to the underworld, near the weres. She flew a few feet in and hovered in the air.
"H-hello? It's Sym... from the Faerieland. Is anyone there?"

((Hey sorry everyone, i couldn't get on yesterday. Where should I start? Anyone got any ideas?))

((Crimson- hey! :D feel free to start now, the faerie queen was needing to talk to you anyway. haha.))

As Aurora woke from her slumber she looked around her darkened room and sat up in her bed. She looked towards her big curtains and raised her hand. With a single flick of her hand the curtains opened to show a beautiful scene of trees and vines. With a smile Aurora climbed out of bed and walked into her bathroom to take a shower.

When Aurora got out of the shower, she walked back into her room and to her dresser. Grabbing out a pair of leggings the shade of a deep gold and a forest green tunic she got dressed. After sweeping her long silvery white hair back into a green ribbon she walked to the windows and through a door to an outside patio. When Aurora was at the ledge she leaned against the wooden railing and looked around the forest her Tree House Palace was in and smiled.
