Nassii shivered visibly as Prygus spoke his name. "Who IS this boy?" he thought, seriously thrown into a bit of a panic. His heart beat too fast - he knew nothing about him. Maybe that was the missing link? What was keeping him from being able to act as his "normal" self?

He spun on his heel. The fae didn't quite expect him to be so close but it was no matter. He closed the rest of the distance between them quickly, perhaps making himself uncomfortably close to the other man. Nassii was just the slightest bit taller than him, but any random onlooker probably could not tell, considering how spikey Prygus' hair was. He tried to lock eyes again with him, knowing his own must be blazing at this point but he could hardly care less. "Tell me all about yourself." he said in quiet but urgent way. He chanced to reach up and touch some of his purple hair.

His untrusting nature was getting the better of him once again and for the moment he was wondering why things were they way they were between them. He knew it was likely paranoia causing him to wonder if magic or deceit were in play, but the alternative - that this was something real and wonderful - beyond anything he had ever known before - was just as frightening in a way.

His heart pounded in his chest as Nassii turned the distance between them nonexistant. He saw his eyes were glowing with blazing intensity as he asked him about himself. He tried to catch himself from shivering with the closeness and a part of him ached to be touched as Nassii gently touched his hair.

Trying to compose himself, he took a deep breath. "I-i.." Visibly shaken he shook his head trying to clear his head from the lust that had colored his thoughts. Only the gods knew how hard he was keeping himself in control as he struggled not to just grab Nassii and kiss him right then and there no matter if he was rejected or not.

She groggily opened her eyes. What the hell just happened? She seemed to be in a different position that she remembered and her body ached. As she gained awareness of her surroundings, she heard a soft, velvet voice laced with desperation, "Wake up...please...."

She blinked, clearing her eyes and looked...into the most beautiful eyes in the world. Dream was looking down at her and she realized she was in his lap. He was cradling her to him. "D-dream?....w-what happened?"

She felt exhausted and when she went to move she gave out a sharp gasp. The pain in her side was immense. She found Dream's hand and clutched it in hers.

"Is this a trap?" Nassii briefly wondered, but the paranoia was overturned by the same primal desire he had every other time he laid eyes upon him. Prygus was the most delicious thing that Nassii had ever laid eyes upon and right now his only thought was wondering how he tastes...

With an instinctual sound that was a cross between a growl and something intangible, the red-haired fae moved his hand swiftly to the back of Prygus's head and pulled him in for a kiss.

Biting her lip as he ran his fingers along her ribs, she tried not to cry out as he hit the broken one. He could just as easy break more if he wanted to but....she trusted him. Completely. Looking up at him she simply nodded and closed her eyes, bracing for the pain she knew was coming but she knew he wouldn't hurt her more than was needed.

Shojiro was so shocked he couldn't react soundly. He merely gaped at her until she spoke to him. "I...I dreamt of you." He said, losing sight of everything around him. All he saw was the striking elf in front of him, he forgot all else. "I..I don't think we've met..but I feel like I know you." He said. The world seemed to wash away from him, and the clearing in which he saw her appeared. His feathered wings twitched as he held himself in place. He had the urge to go to her, to hold her in his arms.

Kojiro saw that the woman had seen him. He sucked in a sharp breath, almost not hearing Ari at all. "Huh? Oh, sure." He said. He felt himself being drawn to the woman, as if they were magents. He waited for Ari to accompany him to meet the other two women. He didn't understand what was going on with him or Sho. Burning desire flowed through his body, hot and demanding. The desire to hold her was strong, he never felt that before. Not even when he looked at Ari.

Bard had no nightmares during his restful sleep. His eyes fluttered opened slowly, the sun was high flitering through the leaves. He looked over at Kai as she still slept, a smile upon his face. He rubbed the sleep from his eyes, his golden blonde hair even wilder on top of his head. He didn't move, he didn't want to disturb the moment. He laid in the grass, watching her sleep.

Andre chuckled at her lover. "As you wish." He said. He held on to her for a moment longer before he got up and held his hand to her. He would have to find Bard and the other males, he would need help. He thought it would be good to build a large cabin, so everyone who wanted could stay in their cabin until they are finish with the other cabins..

Izaradas laughed as she flashed around the woods. She loved that he could keep up with her, that he wanted to catch her. Izaradas haven't had this much fun in her entire life, it was always torture and misery for her. She lept her mind focus, using her spells to help her and to confuse him slightly. She wouldn't mind being caught by him, although she didn't know what Keith was capable of. She began to slow her teleporting, making it seem like she was tiring and losing power.

Ari sighed seeing the look in Ko's eyes as he watched the other woman. This sucks. Wandering slightly ahead of Ko , she was trying to keep a smile on her face as she approached Sho and the two women. "Hello. My name is Ari. Pleasue to meet you." Ari said standing in front of them near Sho. "Welcome to our camp, it isn't much but everyone who seems to be attracted to these woods have ended up here." Seeing the interaction between the boys and the girls Ari wondered if it might be better for her to disappear for a while. I am so stupid sometimes. Ari thought as she forced herself to keep a smile in place.

Rai was alone now as she stood and wrapped her wings tight around herself. Sho seemed happy, and enchanted with the girl he just met. She wanted him to be happy, so she knew that there was not much that she could do about her feelings for him except to bury them. So then alone again. Rai thought as she unwrapped her wings from her around her as she walked along the edge of the water. I guess it is only my fault for falling for him. Rai laughed at herself. At least it had been a new experience. A sigh left her as a single tear slipped down her cheek as her feet touched the water a little.

Sayo had woken in the tree and was irritated. She needed to figure out a way to get the girl Rai back. Getting up to fly around and check things out she noticed the demon girl Kai and her partner Bard near some spings. Keeping out of sight she backed up a little and her sword slipped from her waist hitting the ground with a clang. A sudden spike in energy had Sayo looking towards the demon girl. Interesting. Sounds huh? With a slightly wicked grin Sayo all but smashed her sword into a nearby rock before replacing it at her side and disappearing towards the camp without having been seen as she was far out of the line of sight of both demons.

As much as Whispers had braced herself the pain was even more intense than she had expected. Trying not to scream, she gave out a small whimper as Dream healed her. She could feel the bone snap back into place. When he was finally done she laid there panting slightly. Looking up at him she whispered, "Thank yo-"
A monstrous feeling arose in her, filling her with dread. Something...evil was in the camp. She gasped as Dream scooped her up and ran in the opposite direction of the camp. Ignoring the pain she held on to him, terrified of this feeling she had.

Nassii's eyes fluttered back slightly as his spontaneous kiss was returned. Prygus's hand in his hair was a feeling so surreal... many often liked to touch Afanassii's long red locks but never quite like this. No matter how many times he might have run through a similar scenario in his past - whether in his mind or reality - this moment had no comparison.

The boy's fingers were warm, still a bit wet from his bath and they left quickly-drying trails of moisture as Prygus swept a hand across his skin, gently resting it upon the fae's cheek as if it were a fragile gift. Nassii returned the touch with his own hand lightly tracing down the side of his captive's neck as he lessened how tight he held him in.

His kisses continued, each one having a new mind of it's own as Afanassii used them to learn as much as he could about this remarkable human. Nagging thoughts, worrying about jumping into the unknown or trusting a stranger were dispelled as each caress allowed him to feel how warm, how... real... Prygus must be.

When his sudden lover moved in closer, Nassii smiled and put an arm about his waist, holding him there. Kisses found their way onto Prygus's neck and fae arms encircled him.

Time was still moving slow and it wasn't the slightest bit a part of the Abez'iana's powers. The moment he was in was in it's own reality, it didn't bother him in the slightest. Without a care for the surroundings, or the camp's inhabitants, he slowly felt town the shape of Prygus's spine with a single finger and licked his neck, just behind his right ear.

Just then a sudden noise in the area brought him back to reality. So immersed was he in Prygus that he failed to notice that they were not alone by the waterside. At first, he was a bit disoriented and looked confused. He didn't really place the sounds of a fight until a few moments later and he turned to take in the scene.

The feel of Nassii's hand on his cheek sent warm tingles down his body as he eagerly returned the fae's kiss. It seemed as if time had stopped, engrossed as he was with him. When he broke contact with his mouth and moved down to his neck he gave out a slight gasp, chills running up and down his spine.

The feel of Nassii's arms encircling him felt so...right, a perfect fit. He trembled slightly as the fae ran his finger down his spine and shuddered with lust as he licked behind his ear. Not to be outdone, Prygus returned the caress with one of his own, nuzzling into the man's neck, kissing softly and slowly. His arms went around the fae, holding him tight.

At the pause of Nassii kissing him, he returned to reality with reluctance. It was only then that he noticed what he was looking at. Two fully transformed demons were in the midst of a fight, power radiating off of them both. Looking past them at the water he could see just the outline of another person under the water. They didn't seem to be floundering or drowning, just hiding.

He kept holding Nassii as they both watched to see what would happen. The feel of his body against his own was delicious and he couldn't bear the thought of letting go so soon.

Looking toward the water again he noticed small splashes. Maybe whoever it was, was drowning. However much he didn't want to let go of Nassii he couldn't just stand there and do nothing. Breaking free of Nassii, he rushed over to the water and dove in, franticly swimming towards the person.

Finally, Dream stopped running. She clung to him, her heart beating hard in her chest. Whatever that was back in the camp couldn't be good at all. She felt a need to find out what was going on but knew she was too weak to do anything at the moment.

Tying to take deep breaths to calm down, she stared in astonishment as Dream began to sing. He has a beautifl voice! Looking up at him and deeply into his eyes, she listened, entranced by his voice. Her heart slowed down as she began to calm down listening to him.

As he finished his song, she found herself speechless for a moment. "T-that was beautiful," she said softly. She could tell that he was tired from running with her but could see that he wanted to find out what was going on back in the camp as much as she did. "You should go find out what's going on in camp. I'll be fine right here." She looked around opening her senses as she did so. Nothing that felt like danger was near this secluded spot and there was a small stream nearby if she needed water.

Afanassii was still disoriented and he leaned back into Prygus as if his presence grounded him in the return of reality. "Do you know them...?" He started, trailing off at the end as the girl in the water caught his attention more fully. He wasn't aware of the "whats" or "whys" of the situation, but soon after Pry jumped into the water, he joined him.

Assuming that his purple-haired companion's attention was on the girl, Nassii attempted to keep an eye out for the two strange beings on shore, not knowing how either of them might react.

"Birds shouldn't get wet..." Nassii found himself thinking as he attempted to pull up more of the girl's body weight. With a quick look back over his shoulder to make certain they weren't noticed, he began working with Prygus to move her toward the other side.

He could swim, but water wasn't his element and so he likely wasn't the best help there could be in the situation. Still, he gave it all his effort and constantly worried about whether his friends from before were doing all right. "Miss Ari was certainly right.."

The fae was winded, too. His clothes were soaked and he found himself put in a bit of a fouler mood because of it. His clothing was of his own creation so he was proud of it and didn't like to see them in disarray. The situation commanded more of his attention than his hubris, though, and so he let the annoyance melt away rather quickly.

The two fighting on the other side seemed intent upon each other. He took a deep breath in an attempt to steady his rocky nerves. His heart pounded in his ears from the jump from his pleasant exchange with Prygus to another sudden situation - this one apparently life or death.

The winged girl appeared to be breathing and he was relieved and also touched at Pry's immediate concern for her. "Do you know her?" he asked, wondering if it were personal.

Nassii would find it hard to believe that Prygus thought to highly of his appearance at the moment, he always thought he looked a bit like a wretched wet cat when he was in a state like this. At the moment, his heart warmed at the thought that Pry had only helped the girl out of her need and not simply because of a personal attachment. He closed his eyes as well as he felt his body up against him.

It was very comfortable - almost enough to give in and have the sleep he had been missing all this time. But he could still hear the two demons fighting across the water and felt anxious. "Is this safe enough for her?" he asked quietly, looking down into Prygus's eyes once again. "Should we take her back to the camp? Perhaps the others will know what better to do?"

Bard was shocked at what was happening to Kiako. Before he could even react she was gone, transformed into something he didn't recoginze. He pulled his sword from his back and raced after her. His angelic side cried out in pain and fear, his demonic side pushing him onward. He reached the clearing, seeing Kiako attacking the black winged angel. "KIAKO!!" He bellowed, his heart breaking. This wasn't her, this wasn't what she wanted. He knew the woman he loves was still inside the shell of the monster that she was at the moment. He stood his ground as he watched as Keith try to stop his mother. Bard cursed himself for needlessly using his tengu form already. Perhaps in that form he could have help, stood a chance against Kiako. He could feel his angelic mother's presence embracing him, the Wind spirits whispering encouragments. Bard wanted Kiako's attention on him, no one else but him.

Shojiro was shaken bak to reality as he felt a sudden spike in emotion. It was first fear, the kind of fear that made one's soul scream. Then it was bloodlust, a deadly bloodlust, it was so strong it made him sick. He wanted to vomit, but he contain it. Soon a great beast burst through the trees, heading striaght for Rai. "NO!!" Shojiro called out, starting towards Rai but before he could get to her, someone had clung to him. It was the elven woman he had been staring at for what seemed to be like ages. He was tormented, he wanted to help Rai, but he wanted to keep the elf safe. He kissed the elf on her head, whispering to her that all will be well. "Go hide, be safe." He said softly. He looked at his brother who had his weapons out. Shojiro detached himself from the elf and stepped away. He was stronger than before, resting had restored him. He summon his scythe and nodded to his brother. It was time for him to transform himself, he closed his eyes and chanted. Releasing his tailsmens he placed himself, his enegries rising, his body began to reshap itself. He transformed much like his father had, but he was a crow and not a raven, his beak was smaller and his wasnt as massive. He hovered off the ground about three feet, his taloned feet tangling. He looked at Kojiro and then took off as fast as he could and plowed into Kiako.

Kojiro was suddenly aware of a strong demonic energy. Before anything could happen, Kiako was attacking Rai and Keith was trying to protect her by throwing himself in front of her. He heard his father cry out to the woman and he caught Sho's looks and transformantions. He decided to follow suit and began chanting as well. His brother taught him the chant to break the tailsmens on his body to keep himself in human form. They had a hard time controlling themselves in tengu form, unlike Bard. They were full tengu demons where as Bard was half angel. Soon enough he was changed, in his tengu form he and Shojiro looked the same. The only difference was that Ko wore red wrappings and Sho wore blue. As he watched as Sho plowed himself into the back of Kiako, Ko looked at the two elven women he was attracted to. "Go..Some...where..safe.. NOW!" His tengu voice was far deeper and more guttural than his normal smooth voice.


Andre was admist a joyous moment when things began to so bad so quickly. He didn't notice right away, not until Tzip froze and everyone started yelling did he see the monster that was Kiako. He grabbed Tzipporah and ran from the encampment. He was determined to get her as far away from the demon as quick as he could. He didn't want anything to happen to her, not now not ever. Sure she handled his sister, but she couldn't handle what Kiako had changed into. Once he was satisifed with the distance, he set her down. "Do NOT go back there!" He said to her, knowing that she would want to fight.

Izaradas shivered as the fine demon male caught her. Her body tingled all over as he gripped her wrists and kissed her, dragging his fangs against her skin. She couldn't wait to feel what he would do to her next. However her excitment was cut short as he took off and asked her care for a human. She would've ignored his wish, but something in his tone told her she better do it. She headed off to find the human he called Syn. She could see the human's trail, a pale color. She followed it, finding the human sitting against a tree. "Hey, the demon wanted me to make sure you stay safe. So don't go to the camp right now." She said, in her normal haughty tone. She then took off in the direction of the camp, knowing that's where she would find him.

When Izaradas arrive she was angered at what she saw. She saw her lovely male demon damaged by another. She growled at the scene, summon up a monsterous spider. The gaint spider looked at Izaradas, who pointed at the demon attacking her demon, then took off towards it. She didn't care about the two tengu demons who were rushing the female demon. The giant spider swung it's leg at Kiako, trying to knock her down.

Afanassii stood and watched the situation with disbelief. "What... is going on here?" he asked aloud. As the scene burst into action his tension skyrocketed. "What do we do, then?" He looked to Pyrgus again. It seemed like the way back to camp might just be barred.

When the spider appeared on the scene he wrinkled his nose in confusion. Being that he was a spider fae, he wondered why it would possibly be in this fight.
