con held the makeshift spear up to the deer and trust it forward trying to hit the animal between the eyes. He backed up however to avoid being stabbed by it's horns.

Nick stood up and glared. anger bubbling. "Stop that right now." he threw his hand forward and the stick.. the toher was trying to use as a jabbing point towards the deer. jumped from cons hand but instead of going into nicks it hit him in the face.. nick swore as the stick hit the floor. "Why can't I EVER get anything right." he mutterd rubbing at his face. he had a nice red mark but it'd fade with some time.

(fire sint forgetting this one is she? .-.)

The deer took advantage of Con being disarmed and continued to force him backwards, tossing his head and rearing back to flail with his hooves. Landing heavily and snorting and pawing the ground.

((OOC: No, just doing five others and people won't stop talking to me. ^_^;))

Con backed up to the tree behind him and sat down, he eyed the stick that lay on the ground a ew yards away and immediately made plans to retrieve it.

Nick sat back down and eye'd con wairly. yeah that.. was a bad idea. now he had a headache. "Great.. stuck with a dear and two ..what barbarians..and a migraine.. sounds like a bad joke.."

The momment Con sat back down the buck calmed and turned in Nick's direction, nosing him softly to check if he was alright.

Nick chuckled. "I'm fine big guy Im fine.. just a migraine.. It'll go away with some sleep.."

When the deer was distracted Con took the only chance he probably had and jumped up scrambled for the stick, he grabbed ahold of it and smiled in triumph.

The deer merely blinked at him then bowed it's head and began to graze on the sparse forest grass, keeping one eye on the stick wielding man at all times as he slowly moved around the area.

Con crept back to the tree keeping his eyes on the deer and sat eyeing nick a little as if he were about to lash out.

Nick leaned his head against his tree. "Let him have his stick..at least it keep shim from bolting."*

The deer did not respond, instead merely continuing to graze, still watching Con and the child carefully, positioning himself in the best place to lunge should he need to before seeming to relax.

The child was still sound asleep, curled up against the trunk of a tree..curled around a peice of fruit that he had been curled around since being found in the bush.

Con fell for the deers false relaxation and jumped forward trying to stab the animal in the side.

Nick snarled and his silver eye's flashed green, the earth rolled and lunghed up CAKEING con in a wall of earth, immobalizeing him as nick stod up and jerked the stick free of the others hold the minute his hand touched it tree branchs surged from it and he yelped dropping it to the earth where it returned to normal. he stared at it. silver back in his eyes. "W..what the HECK is going on.."

The deer reared with a bellow, eyes wide, nostrils flaring. It hit the ground with a thump and bellowed again, pawing the ground as it trembled, fighting the urge to run. Instead it settled for snorting several more times and shredding the ground under it's hooves.

Con became very agitated while being encased in the wall of earth. He struggled to move but couldn't.

Nick glared at Con. "Attack another creature while Im near you and I'll burry you cub or not." he said voice calm. and eyes returning to silver. he reached up and gentle patted the deers side trying to help it calm down.

(so is con out?)

((no he's just unable to move))

Con jerked and twisted around wanting to be free from the earthen prison. He shouted some as if expecting another of his kind to come from tjhe woods. The yelling woke the kid and he immediately wandered over.

Nick moved to his spot and sat down ignoreing Con as he pulled out a small bag from it he pulled a peice of fruit, and placed it in easy reach of the deer before he pulled another for himself and put everything back into his back pack. "I'm not letting you out until you stop being a jerk."

The deer heaved again, it's sides coated with a sheen of sweat, but it seemed to calm almost instantly when it Nick touched it. There was a rustle of branches as Shin appeared on them and leaped to the ground. She glanced at Con and smiled "I take it he caused trouble then." Several more forms appeared on the branches above, unlike Shin, they were fully mature. They were larger, both male and female, and instead of changing appearance with whatever tree they used, they had their own distinct and permenant appearances. One of the eldest males stepped up to Con and spoke to him in his own language "Who are you and how have you come here?" while the others dispersed, one to watch over the child, another to comfort the deer, and the rest to examine and speak to Nick, trying to analyze his powers from what they had been told, they demanded to know what he could do and how he had aquired them.

Con glared at the elder, yes he was able to understand him. But he only answered with threats against Nicks life. He wasn't happy nor was he comfortable being trapped like he was.

The child shied away from the dryad that walked over to watch over him creeping back ot the tree where he was curled up and picked up the fruit he had kept protected all this time.

Nick glared at them. "I don't KNOW.. alright I've already told HER that. it just happens. I didn't aquire them ethir. they've always been with me." and he flat out refused to explain how they'd 'come to be' ethir. aggitation started building he harder they qeustioned. he was NOT gonna talk about how they'd come to be. he shied away from the memorie and his silver eye's started to turn green as anger and fear built. no he wasn't going back would they make him go back? he'd rather die first.
