(kk X3 )

During the last month or so Viv had been getting used to her spirit form and was soon learning how to shift along with how to speak again. It took almost that whole month for her to re-learn how to speak though that didn't stop her from starting to do her job. After they had spoken to the council she had started her job as a spirit, but it had taken her a week to do so. That was excused by the council since she was a new spirit and she had just learned what her abilities were. She had gotten to meet the other three plant spirits and had found that she could work at night so she could be with Raven whenever he was in the area she was in. Today would be the first day she got off from her job since she had finished up early and one of the other nature spirits explained to her that once she was sure all the plants in her area that she was to take care of were good for a few days she could take those extra days off... though she still had to check up on the plants ever day. So today she was planning on going to see her parents then would have to go out later to check on the plants again... though that didn't bother her. "Are you ready to go love?" she asked Raven with a smile. she wasn't able to go into the human world yet by herself though she could keep a stable human form... it was just that she wasn't strong enough to do that yet on her own... she knew that Raven didn't mind though.

Raven had watched over Viviayn's progress and had taught her how to speak over the month she was a spirit. It was great that she worked at night since he coudl easily bisit her when he needed to. It was great for them but he knew she wanted to visit her parents. So he was going to go with her but he would have to leave once the sun started to go down. He had to be apart of the sky and if he wans't he would lose Viviayn forever. When he heard her he couldn't help but smile as he pulled her into his arms and kissed her head gently. "I am ready to go as long as I get to stay close to you." he said as he looked into her eyes and smiled.

Viv smiled easily and used her wings to float some and kissed him on the lips softly. "Justremember, tonight I'm going to visit my parents and you can't skip work so we'll have to meat at dawn." she said softly and wished it wasn't so though knew that this is how it had to be... If he missed even a short time in the night the council would take her away... Though Raven still hadn't told her what would happen in that instance... He just kept saying it wouldn't happen.

Raven smiled when she fluttered up and kissed him. Gently he wrapped his arms around her to hold her up in the air and kissed her gently again. "okay, but I will be watching from the sky. If anything happens tell me and I will come get you right away." he said as he looked at her and smiled. If he could he would of loved to come with her but he couldn't. He had to stay at work or else he would lose her. She still didn't know what would happen if he did and hta twas what he wanted. She needed to stay clueless so that she wouldn't freak out.

"Okay then... maybe sometime we could come during the day and you could meet them? They're really nice and I'm sure they'd love you." Viv smiled some kissing him again then sighed some as she looked at the entrance to the cave and knew they would have to go soon. "Come on... the sun is setting... we have to go and start our jobs... I just have to check up on mine and that I'll do once I'm done at my parents house..." she said softly as she looked at him and smiled some though really wished that he could just come with her... though they had to stay safe... he couldn't miss work so it would have to wait.

Raven smield when he heard her and nodded, "I liked the sounds of that." he said and then kissed her back right away. THought when they pulled away he sighed and looked as he looked to the cave opening. "your right, we better go." he said as he gently set her down. Yet he kept her hand in his and walked with her towards the enterence. When they got to the edge he smield at her, "I will see you soon." he said and then kissed her deeply. "remember that I love you more then anything else." he said to her softly and kept her close to him.

"Yes... though do remember love... I can't get in or out of the human realm without you yet... so I have to go with you." Viv smiled some as a reminder since often times Derek would take her but tonight he was busy so Raven had to instead... normally her work started after his.

Raven nodded, "that just means I get to spend more time with you." he said as he picked her up and slowly let his wings out. He then took off into the sky and after a few minutes they were flying over the earth. Son he landed down infront of her home. "I will be back for you soon." he said as he gently set her down in the ground. He then kissed her geek and seemed to dissappear into thin air right after it.

Viv smiled as she heard him then felt him kiss her cheek before watching him go off into the night able to now that she could see like a spirit. She then shifted into her human for and walked to the door and knocked lightly. She smiled as her mother opened the door and they soon started to talk and laugh and have a good time. She made up stories to tell her mother and father and they bought them all blindly. Ow too soon however it was time for her to go and check up on the plants she was in charge of so she said bye to her family and was soon off again. Tonight felt wonderful though at the same time there was something off... what was it though? She looked around as she was making her rounds in her spirit form though soon her eyes got wide as a net came over her then she was stuck in a clear jar and started to scream for help.

(can you be the guy that caught her please?)

((sure))

The man smiled as he pulled the jar close to him and looked at her. "finally, I got you." he said and smiled as he looked back towards where her house was. "now then I wonder if your family has more of you." he said as he headed over to her home. "if there aren't I can just kill them. I dont need a human in my collection, all I want are more rare spirits." he said as he walked.

"NO! LET ME OUT! LET ME GO! LEAVE THEM ALONE!" Viv screamed as loud as she could though it still wasn't loud enough to be heard far from the jar. She moved around in the jar banging against the sides and the top and even the bottle just just couldn't seem to break it. "RAVEN! DEREK! MIDNIGHT! MEME! SADY! SOMEONE PLEASE!" she screamed out for help from any of her friends but no one could hear her but the man that held the jar she was in. She started to cry and rattle the jar again though was becoming weak and tired from all the moving about.

The man smirked when he heard her and looked down at her, "sorry, but I made sure that no one was going to come get you. Your mine little farry." he said as he got to her home. He kicked the door open without warning and frowned as he smelled the air. "oh, only humans. I guess they have to go." he said and in less then a second the home seemed to blow up. The only ones who were protected from the blast was him and Viviyan. He laughed as he looked at the destruction and then headed out of there. "time to put you with the others." he said and then bat like wings came to him. He then flew up into the sky and away from there.

Raven smiled as the sun started to come up and headed to go and get Viviyan from her parents. But when he got there he just stared. THe house was gone. Sniffing around he soon smelled a demon and he growled. Before it was time for him to go he took off from job and started to look for her.

"NO! MOM! DAD! NO!!!" Viv screamed as the house just seemed to explode but it took long enough that you could hear her parents screaming and that made her scream and cry even more. She continued to struggle and beat against the jar but had no luck in even scratching it. She finally just sat down and curled up into a tight ball and started sobbing repeating over and over 'Mom and Dad' then also 'Raven help me' and even cried for Derek or the council members to save her... but no one heard her... no one knew that she was being stolen.

The man smiled as he got to his lare. it was simply a dark cave and inside it was a collection. You coudl see one of every mythical creature and he smiled as he placed her on the shelf along with the other farries. Most of them were dead and he smiled as he looked at her, "your mine." he said smilply and then headed out to get something. They looked like tools, disection tools.

Raven growled as he looked around frantically for her and it felt like forever since he couldn't find her. He had to though, she had to be okay. He shifted into his dragon form and started to look for her. He roared and flew around, frantic.

Viv looked around and screamed again when she saw all the dead ferries and creatures sitting around tried harder to get out and ended up knocking the glace on the ground... though it didn't break even a little. She felt panic hitting her harder and harder though she just couldn't seem to get free and it really did scare her.

The man smirked when he heard the jar hit the floor and looked over at her. He smield as he reached out and picked it up. Looking at her he smiled, "sorry, but I need to disct you and then stuff you." he said as he looked at her and smiled. He then moved to open it but before he could do anything something tackled him to the ground and started to tear into him. It was raven, a very angry raven. He growled and bit into the man and didn't care taht he screamed. Once he was sure that he wasn't going to get up he turned back to his human form and quickly opened the jar that she was in. "are you okay?"

Viv screamed when she heard him and felt him pick up the jar though then was rattled a bit when the jar fell out of his hands and he was tackled to the ground. She was dazed and vuagly confused though then looked up to see Raven and smiled some. "Thank you love." she said as she crawled out of the jar and sat in his hand feeling tired and still shaken. Her whole form was quivering and she couldn't pull herself together enough yet for her to turn big or to turn into her human form... she didn't want to turn into her human form now... it would only remind her of her family.

Raven pulled her close to him when he felt her shaking and knew that she was scared. Gently he held her in his arms and then looked down at her, "how about if we go home.' he said to her softly but then remembered he had missed his night. He then shook his head and just looked at her, "lets just walk." he said as he carrie dher out of there and just started to walk around amilessly.

"Why do you want to walk? Why don't we go home?" Viv asked as she looked at Raven then the sky but it was morning so she didn't know why he didn't want to go home... she wanted to go home... all she wanted to do was go home and sleep off what had just happened and try not to think about it... so why couldn't they?

Raven looked at her and sighed. "I am a little tired from looking for you and just wanted to rest a second." he said as he looked at her and hoped that she was okay with this. He had skipped out on his work and the price was her being destroyed. He had to talk to thecouncil. Maybe just maybe he could strike a deal with him. "you know I though I had lost you." he said as henlooked at her lovingly.

"Ow okay..." Viv said softly and tried to give him a smile but it was broken... she was in pain from what had happened... to have been right there and to not have been able to help her parents... she just hoped that her new baby sister wasn't in the house... she didn't think she was though...

(should we just have it that she vanishes or something then he has to go to the council or something?)

Raven frowned when he saw her broken smile and slowly sat down under a tree. Getly he stroked her head with a finger. "everything is okay, I promise things will get better." he said as he looked at her and hoped he wasn't right. He wanted her to be happy and to smile all the time.

((sounds good))

"But... he killed Mom and Dad... I don't think Mesa was home though... ow she'll grow up without parents!" Viv sobbed putting her face in her small hands and started to cry again. She suddenly stopped though as she looked up and around as her form started to glow and she grabbed ahold of Raven's finger but before anything could be done about it... she was gone.

(hm... shall we go to the council and Viv? Or stay with Raven?)

((lets go to the council and I can write about how he freaks out))

Raven frowned when he heard her and wanted to hold her close to him. But she was to small so he just stroked her head with a finger. But when she started to dissappear fear stuck him. And then panic sent in when she was gone. He knew what this ment. Growling he let his wings grow and headed out of there.

(so should we have it where they bring Viv in or something? Or straight to where Raven comes in?)
