"I miss them but I'm not alone. I have my family here." Day had been angry about it but it wasn't in his nature to stay mad. He knew his family was gone but they wouldn't want him to not be happy. He had made a new family here and it made him happy.

"If you are ready to we can. You should go have fun jumping around." He gave her a wink. He stood up quickly. "Of course we can get together again. I do not really practice. Sometimes she rides me and juggles for a few minutes but that is it." He paused and sighed. "But I should go speak to Ahanna and Rythen and then Zalia about this form."

Kyle and Akasha stayed sitting together on the trampoline, planning things out not just for themselves, but for the other two siblings and of course how to possibly help Melony. They thought she was a sweet girl, and Kita seemed to like her, when she could handle people that was.

Nakita shook herself after the change, tail flicking at the end, and trotted towards the treeline. She felt free in this form, nothing from her human form could touch her here. She was a silent predator, fast and cunning, and the only thing to separate her from the other wild creatures was the special trinket that circled her right paw with a name plate. 'Kita' was elegently scrawled across the plate. Reaching the treeline, she paced back and forth trying to find the perfect tree. Unhappily not finding one, she flopped under one that was next to a man-made path into the trees to a very popular clearing.

Nodding Casimir stood and went to try and find the mess tent. Walking around, he heard the sounds he associated with training. Routine took him, and the young man went over to see what exactly was going on. Slipping in quietly he was astounded. All those he had thought lazy and graced with natural ability were practicing their art diligently, with nearly no pause. A small gasp escaped him at the sight of two women doing arabesques and dancing in such a way that his breath was taken. For a few seconds the hunter found himself unable to breathe.

Grasping Day's hand in her own, Melony started walking up the path. "I'm glad for you, this family is definitely a wonderful one."Looking down at her feet the young woman blew a stray hair out of her face."Are you really dreading telling them that much? It's not like you're always going to be in this form is it? On another note, I'm looking forward to the next time we can talk, or fly. Whatever form you're in, it'll be fun. "Melony gazed up into Day's face with a smile, marveling at the fact that she'd got her wish. Suddenly her brief, but thorough, hunter training kicked in and she knew someone else , or something else, was near them on the path. "Whose there?", demanded the young woman as she stepped in front of Day automatically in order to protect him.

Nakita had nearly dozed off, the friendly breeze and cool shade lulling her off, the only movement from her was the twitching of her ear. She rolled onto her back for a quick scratch, settling back down on her side as she heard someone along the path. She lifted her head lazily, making a soft rumbling sound, before settling again intent on ignoring people. In her animal mind, people were the problem, people couldn't be trusted not to hurt you. Only family or pack as the grey wolf claimed, could be trusted.

Watching any of the quadruplets shift fascinated Zalia. It was such an amazing process to watch. Looking to Caleb she let out and laugh and put her arm around his shoulders. "I do love yours and Ky's pancakes," she said then dropped her arm and started walking forward. Entering the tent she looked at everyone and spotted Casimir staring at the twins. He seemed to not be breathing as he watched them dance. Maybe he will turn around.. she thought to herself and then cleared her throat. "The circus will be moving places shorty but we will not be performing tonight. I thought everyone could use a rest. I'll let you know when the next performance is." She gave them all a smile then turned and walked over to Akasha and Kyle. Raising her eyebrow to the leader of the siblings she waited for her to say something. She wasn't mad that they had gone out, it was good for them to do so. She had just been worried about them and that showed on her face.

Akasha and Kyle had both turned to look at the entry at the same time when Caleb and Zalia entered and the older female made her announcement. Akasha's brows furrowed in concern when she noticed Nakita was not with them. Kyle flounced up from his spot on the trampoline with his head in Aki's lap. He grabbed a plate of pancakes and brought them with him as he walked to Zalia, presenting them with a flourishing bow that brought a snort from Caleb at her side. "Oh great Lady Zalia, your pancakes." He spoke in a mock british servant voice. Caleb glided past him, swatting the other boy in the head before climbing on to the trampoline. "Sorry Zal, it was never our intention to worry you. But I imagine you already know this. If you wish I could let you see the new books I brought in." Akasha replied to the leader's obvious look, even though she herself did not look apologetic.
After passing Zalia her pancakes, Kyle took his leave, slipping into otter form since it would help him find his sister faster. He easily found her, pouncing onto the white striped form with a chatter.

Casimir actually tripped when he tried t step forward, and he never tripped. He'd thought having an attraction for Cire was bad... He fell right into the silent standing twin, who was watching her sister dance. Quickly he stood, but did not apologize. "Why aren't you dancing too?" His thoughts, not supposed to be voiced aloud, had slipped out. These two flustered him, and he had no idea why. It was disconcerting for the hunter to realize that maybe not all the supernaturals were as bad as he'd been led to believe... That maybe they were actually people too.

Seeing an otter pounce onto a tiger, Melony rolled her eyes. "Kyle you better not have left my sword lying around where anyone could grab it!" It was shouted in mock anger, as she remembered Aki saying Kyle could turn into an otter.

(sorry for the short post, I can't think of anything else to say.)

Nakita growled at the sleek brown creature, rolling over onto it and if tigers could laugh, she would be as the little otter let out high-pitched sqeaking sounds as it was squished by the bigger animal. Moving off of him after a few minutes and giving it a baleful look, the tiger leaped into the tree above them, only her tail hanging down. The otter wriggled on the ground as it righted itself on its stubby little legs before shifting back to his human form. "Damn you Kita!" He shouted at the currently apathetic feline before he turned a bright smile to Melony. "Of course not dear lady." He said, engaging in a floushing bow as he presented her collapsed rapier to her. "Did Aki scare you away?" He asked in genuine concern.

Melony giggled at the flourish, and took her blade from his hand. "Actually it was my fear of heights, but don't worry. That kind of disappeared after Day let me ride him, it was wonderful... The whole sky open right in front of you with nothing but air holding you up! It's the most amazing feeling." Her eyes were a little dreamy as she recollected the experience. "So who is the tiger?" Jumping from one subject to another was becoming a habit for the gray eyed young woman. Feeling a light breeze made her want to fly again. It seemed like that one experience, had made her fall in love with the sky.

Laughing hard Zalia took the offered pancakes for Ky and shook her head. Looking to Akasha she made a shooing motion with her hand. "It's ok don't worry. You all are 19 and I shouldn't keep fussing over you. I guess I just can't help myself." She gave her a small smile then started to devour her pancakes. She hadn't been lying to Caleb, they were her favorite.

Azra was so involved with watching her sister she hadn't sensed the hunter coming near her, so she was taken by surprise when he tumbled into her. Stumbling herself she caught her balance and looked to the hunter..Casimir! That was his name. "I enjoy watching my sister when she is so lost in the dance. She's truly happy in that moment when she never is anytime else." A small smile flitted across her face as she looked back to her sister. Then she turned her focus back on the hunter. "Why do you ask?" She said softly. Azra really didn't know why she was talking to him but it seemed as if he was realizing that all supernaturals weren't bad.

Still so lost in the dance Chenol didn't hear anything around her, not even when Zalia spoke to the whole group. Her eyes were closed and she still had that rare smile on her face. When she was like this she tended to block everything out, knowing that her sister was there to protect her. Dancing was the one thing she truly loved besides her sister.

Kyle smiled at her. "Well if you like flying so much, you might like the trampoline then. And that sour puss up there is Naki." He spoke with such eagerness till getting to the tiger in the trees, lightly tugging on the tail and eliciting a loud yowl. The tail shimmered away as a glaring female dropped from the tree, landing in a crouch. "Was that really neccessary Kyle Reece?" The slightly smaller female snarled, her arms crossing in front of her chest, the emotions emanating from her form was anything but anger though. Depression, hurt, anxiety, they flashed across her fast too fast for a normal human to catch, but Kyle did and he pulled his other half into a tight embrace as she collapsed into silent tears. He glanced at Melony, wondering what she was thinking. "Don't mind her, this happens a lot." He tried to joke as he sat on the ground with his back to the tree and his sister burrowed into his side, left handing patting the ground for the other girl.

Akasha gave Zalia a blank look even as Caleb escaped to the top of the trampoline to work on a fast paced routine much like the one Kyle had put on earlier, just without the blade. The blonde woman moved towards the other, giving her a tight hug. "Whether we are 19 or not, you would still care, and its amazing to us that you do." She spoke as she turned to stand next to her, watching Caleb. "Its also one of the reasons Ky and the others, but Ky mostly, like to call you mother behind your back." She snickered softly, knowing the other woman didn't want any reference to being old used in the same reference to her.

Just having finished her pancakes Zalia set her plate down right before Akasha gave her a hug. Surprised Zalia hugged her back quickly before the girl let go. Hearing her last sentence Zalia chocked on surprise and sputtered. Catching her breath she turned and looked to Akasha. "They do that?" She was really surprise at the admission and couldn't help feel a bit happy, even though she hated being considered old sometimes. But it was true, she was ancient. "I do care about all four of, you a lot. Like you were my own children." She smiled faintly and watched Caleb.

Akasha laughed full blown when Zalia sputtered, the serious mask she wore fading. "Would I ever lie to you Zal?" Akasha sounded offended but the smile trying to break through let the other woman know she wasn't serious. Hearing the other woman's declaration, Akasha went back to watching Caleb, her eyes rather shiny as she leaned her head on the other woman's shoulder. "I'm sure they'll be happy to know." She murmured softly. Opening her eyes as she stood up straight again, she seemed slightly nervous. "Who are all these new people, and what do you plan on doing with them?" She asked, all over emotions gone as seriousness and protectiveness for her family over took her.

Grinning Zalia looked to Akasha. "Maaaaybe stretch the truth but no you wouldn't lie to me." She said with a chuckle. When she laid her head on her shoulder Zalia brought her hand up and brushed Akasha's hair, dropping it when she stood up straight. "Melony is a hunter who only hunts murdering supernaturals. She's quite nice, I like her. The circus magic already made her a ring. Rae and Roe are sisters and also are hunters. They were sent here to pretty much die. Mikhail, you haven't seen him yet is a hunter but the twins figured out that he has Naga blood in him. Automatically he is accepted and will be getting his ring when I see him next and so will the sisters. I think he likes Chenol, I know she likes him." At this she smiled glad that Chenol was opening herself up. "Casimir is the one talking to Azra right now, also a hunter. He's suppose to be locked up right now as he shot Mellie last night with an arrow. I embarrassingly missed a dagger he threw and it caught me in the thigh. He hasn't attacked anyone since and I think he likes Cire so I haven't made someone lock him up yet. But if he does anything I'm going to."

Akasha couldn't help the grin that sprouted on her face when Zalia mentioned her stretching the truth. She would after all, not with the intention to hurt any one, but sometimes it happened. She nodded softly as she listened to the other woman list the newcomers, a soft smile about hearing of Melony. "Thats good. Nakita may be able to make a new friend. And I hope no one develops a crush on Azra...Kyle seems to pine for her at night himself." She chuckled softly. At hearing Zalia had been hurt she whirled on the other woman, green eyes being replaced by gold as her hawk blood went into overdrive. "You were injured? Is it still bleeding? Does it hurt? Why are you standing? You should be sitting!" She nearly, very nearly, screeched out loud, but managed to contain it to a rustling growl as feathers sprouted along her arms as she lead the other woman to sit down. At the moment her main focus was Zalia, the one woman she would never admit out loud she saw as a mother too, and the only reason she did not try to rip the male, Casimir's, head off.

Day looked at Melony. "I do not dread it really. I have been with them for longer then I had thought I would be."

As soon as the tiger got near Day folded his wings and tried to make himself small. Every fiber of him screamed 'Predetor!' When the otter bounced out and Melony addressed them he knew it was the shifters. He started to straighten but stopped when he realized he was in a two legged form. I want Ahanna nad Rythen to be the next people I tell. He watched as they shifted and talked to Melony but stayed behind her. She did say she had gone for a ride on me and I smell the same in any form. Maybe they will not notice me.

((I made a new character:) Male, his profile is up. I'll bring him in soon!))

There were to many questions fro Zalia to get a word in so she let Akasha lead her over to sit down. Once there she looked to the young women who now sported feather's on her arms. "Akasha honey I'm fine I promise. It's completely healed up I don't even have a scar." She gave her a smile and motioned for her to sit down. "I'm telling you the truth I promise." Zalia was completely touched that Akasha seemed to care about her. "Now does Kyle really have a crush on Azra?" She asked with a grin.

Akasha watched the smile, slowly calming down, but it was slow going until Caleb, pulling a dangerous stunt, took a flip off the highest trampoline and set his landing on the mat just behind Akasha, where he wrapped the feathered woman in a hug from the back as he whispered words to calm her down. Caleb slowly let the blonde girl go as the feathers disappeared, Aki swaying slightly from a sudden burst of dizziness. "Jeez Zalia, what'd you do to ruffle her feathers?" He asked, attempting a joke to lighten the mood. Akasha glared at him as she sat next to Zalia. "Alright, I won't go on a murdering rampage, but next time someone hurts you I will." She rasped softly, vocal chords still strung out from the half change, but Caleb had heard enough to get him started growling. Knowing where it was headed, Aki threw her shoe at him, smirking as he spluttered in indignation. "But yes, Kyle seems to have grown rather fond of the other naga. I don't think she knows though." She replied as she leaned against the other woman. Since last night, and even this morning, her emotions had been strung thin as she worked to care for her siblings.

Kyle tensed as if sensing another there, but his acute sense of smell told him it was only a horse, a pegasus at that and he dismissed it as he focused on his crying sister.

Zalia watched Caleb calm his sister with a smile. The four of them were so strong for each other but someone needed to be strong for them all. She guessed that's where she came in. Wrapping an arm around Akasha she held her close, noticing that the girl seemed exhausted emotionally. "Caleb come sit by me I'm fine, no need to growl." She grinned up at him then turned her attention to Akasha. "No need to go on a murdering rampage for me. I don't think she knows either, she's weird that way. Both of the sisters can be so distant but she's better than Chenol."

Why had he asked her that? It was a question that made him wonder about what he was becoming. Casimir knew he couldn't return to being the mindless pawn he'd been before, not after speaking with Cire and realizing that perhaps the supernaturals weren't all as bad as he'd been led to believe. "Curiosity mostly." Something pushed him to ask something else that he was quite intent on. "I wondered, if I could maybe go into town? You see... there's this idea I had after speaking with Cire... I want to surprise her. Maybe you could help? I promised not to leave the circus grounds, but this is important. Or maybe you know of some supernatural being nearby, an immortal that wouldn't mind 'belonging' to Cire maybe a non-intelligent dragon or..."The hunter trailed off with a strange look on his face, a mixture of surprise and happiness.

After looking at Day with a smile Melony went to sit beside Kyle. "Hey Naki, you want to show me how to jump around? " She felt horrible for the young woman,but knew she couldn't really do anything except try and distract her. Turning to Kyle, she inspected her blade carefully. "So what weapons do you have? And ...." Planting the blade into the ground, Melony vaulted up quickly to grasp it. "How good are you with them? I might have an idea for another act, all about weapon skills. I just need to ask Zalia about it, see if she can fit it in once it's all figured out." Looking at the young man speculatively she shivered because of the drizzling rain, and looked up at the cloudy sky. She couldn't believe she'd gone flying in such weather, but it had been wonderful.

As soon as Melony moved Day dashed to the side and into the trees. He quickly pulled off the pants and shifted form. If only I didn't have to worry about clothes. He came out of the trees back in his four legged form and walked over to the people. He nuzzled Melony's hair then ran off back to the camp. I want to get Ahanna and Rythen together to tell them.

Kyle smiled at the other girl, one hand pausing in its ministrations of running through Nakita's hair, wet as it was. Kita slowly sat up as she wiped her face, the water coming down not helping much. "I'm sorry. But sure, I'll show you." She gave Melony a watery smile as she shakily stood, Kyle comig up to steady her. They both watched as Melony vaulted up, wondering what had given her such low confidence in herself. "Kyle has a wide range of weapons actually." Kita spoke as she snuggled into her brothers side for a few more minutes. He gave a lopsided grin and a one shoulder shrug. "Yeah, and I know how to use each of them proficiently. It seems that when my siblings were blessed with the forms of predators, well except maybe Aki since she's a bird, they have the physical prowess I do not have as an otter shifter, thus I have to supplement with weapons." He said, a light flush coloring his cheeks at his seeming disability. "Aki is actually another one to ask about weapon use. Since she and I are not major predators like Caleb and Nakita here, she would research the weapons way more than I would and then teach me how to use them. Of course she taught all of us, just in case as she would say." He admitted, grinning as Naki stepped away from him to do cartwheels in the rain. "I hope she hasn't scared you. Its a runing joke that she may be bi-polar, but then again we all grew up orphans...Its affected us all differently and Naki gets it worse. She was closest to Mother before the hunters found our parents." He spoke quietly so as not to attract the blonde playing in the rain.

Caleb growled at Aki when she threw her shoe at him, but he still reached down and brought it to her as he sat down on the other side of Zalia, grinning at their conversation. "You do know that when Kyle realizes you told about his secret crush, he's going to be furious?" He said, then shifted into his furry form to escape further conversation that could possible run into an angry tirade from Aki. The blonde female just glared at the large grey wolf. "And Kyle will never know about this conversation because you won't tell him." She responded, sounding better. She glanced at the entry way, spotting the gloomy looking sky with a drizzle of rain. "Well, those two should be happy. It wet outside." Her tone was sour, one of the few indications to her obvious dislike of wet weather. It was so hard to fly in, how could she ever like it? But Kyle and Nakita both loved the water, it just had to be their animals.

A grin spread over Melony's face when Day returned in his pegasus form to nuzzle her hair before leaving. She turned back to the siblings and watched as Naki went off into a series of cartwheels. Smile dropping Melony turned to Kyle. "Of course she didn't scare me! It does seem like nearly everyone here has a sad story, having to do with hunters..." The young woman put her arms around herself to try and warm up, and tried to suppress the tiny shivers that were starting to run trough her body. Melony didn't like the cold too much, but she did love the rain. She only wished it was warmer, and sunnier, so she could maybe see a rainbow. "So... I have no idea what kind of act to put on, would you want to help me come up with it? It isn't really my kind of thing."

''a meum iussum circo ponete, et meum orbis redigete. Iusso.''* She chanted, the only sentence needed for the spell. When she stepped out of the animal tent, an invisble barrier, marked by small incantations at it's end, appeared. The animals could walk till over the creek, but the barrier would turn smaller when time would stretch. Of course, she'd make it become smaller faster, as the spell could take three days. Now, she only had to set the animals free and clean up their stables.

((Translation, it's latin and prob has a few mistakes xD At my command place a circle (shape meant), and bring the circle (more meant as in a community circle) back. I command
(a.k.a make the circle smaller so the animals (the second circle) have to return xD) ))

Lucifer laughed and stood up. Picking up Scarlett, he ran off to the woods, as fast as he could. Soon, he stopped, as they came to a clearing, and the beautiful waterfall. His face lit up as fish jumped out, and splashed around. "Welcome to my paradise," he smirked and set Scarlett down gently, on her feet. Taking his shirt off, he walked to the water and dipped his foot in. "Wanna swim? It's actually really warm," he spoke and bent down, wiggling his finget around in the water. He watched the fish come over, and nip at his finger. "They need more food ..." Lucifer stood up, and walked over to a rock. Under it, was a few bags full of the food these fish ate. There were special herbs, and leaves, and of course, the finest fish food. "These fish are legendary ... Theses are the only ones in the world. They glow at night, and during eclipses, they turn human and walk the Earth, all in one night, eating what they want, doing what they want ..." he said, looking up to Scarlett as he took a bag, and moved the heavy rock back into place.

Mellie smiled to Rythen and stood up. She ran quickly to her bathroom, hoping he didn't see her soaked nightgown. She put on her light green dress, that sparkled in the light. It had no straps, and lace in a flower design across the top. The bottom of the dress was frilly, and it stopped a mere two inches above her knees, much like her nightgown and other dresses. She didn't bother applying make-up, but she did brush out her hair and put on parfume. Walking out of the bathroom, she immediately ran back in, for she forgot to go to the bathroom, which was usually the first thing on her to-do list. After washing her hands, she went back out to Rythen and giggled softly, waving to him. "Morning, sunshine!" she said, chipper, happy her real voice was back.
