"yep... I am an artist... What about you with that clay" Shiloh asked as she finished up the details on the girl. Now she just needed to look at the colors for which to draw inside the lines. She shaded the picture and stated to move on to her colors. Her head was down towards her work for the time being until she finished the drawing of the girl. Handing it to her she picked up her pack and went onto the road. "Well i better get off. Gotta find the next town before sundown to figure out what im gunna do... You two are welcome to join me."

Ru Li, not having been completely asleep, murmured out something, still shaking himself fully awake. "Uh. Yeah." He finally says coherently, pushing himself up off of the ground sleepily. "Nothing else I have to do, so...why not?" He says, shaking his head; trying to figuratively 'knock the sleepiness away' long enough for him to find a place to stay. He picked up his pack and slipped it on his shoulders, stretching out, slowly stepping towards the road as well. "I may part company with you later on though--I don't like staying anywhere too long."

"Who said i was staying anywhere? Im traveling rmember. I dont want to just settle down in one place for a while but im cool with it if thats what you want to do" Shiloh said as she looked at the others. The man was the only one standing right now so she waited for the female to respond. It was nice to have company while traveling, even if it was only going to be for a little while.

Thank you, it is really good. I guess you can call me an artist, company sounds.....good." Lyna said as she stood up,tucked the picture into her bag and grabbed. She walked over to Shiloh and handed her the little clay fox sitting in the middle of a rose to her. It didn't seem like her best work, but it would do she made sure the clay was dried out before she handed it to Shiloh that way it wouldn't break. "Ru Li, right?" She said as she turnned towards the long black haired man, and looked him over. She didn't get a good look at him earlier but she saw that he was quitte handsome in his own way, but then again this was the frist man she got to see up close.

Shiloh took the clay model. It was beautiful. It may not be completely detailed or colorful or anything like that but it was detailed in a way that made the clay just seemingly illusional with the flower and the fox girl which she assumed was her. "Its no problem. Well i say lets get going if we are going to hit a town any time soon." She said smiling and feeling like she had the massive urge to just skip away with her new companions though she didnt exactly want to. The urge was just something she fought with her desires. She turned to take another look at the man as she walked. He was just handsome beyond belief. Especially for a human. Hmmm This was new. No one had ever attracted her to their beauty when she wasnt painting or drawing.

"Correct." Ru Li answered as they walked toward the nearest town. He happened to have been going that way before, so he figured he lucked out. During most of the walk, he wasn't entirely focused on the two pretty girls he was with; he was somewhere else entirely, inside of his mind. He didn't speak unless spoken to, a habit that he had developed from his upbringing that was hard to get rid of. During the trip he suddenly reached behind his head and put his hair into a ponytail, tired of it going in front of his face all the time. Satisfied with it, he gave a soft smile to himself then resumed his silent, expressionless journey.

Lyna looked around at thier tiny group and couldn't help but feel like they were going to be together for a while. She looked back towards the sun and saw that it was almost night time. Looking forward she didn't see a town in sight, it didn't seem like they were going to reach a town in time for night fall. She stopped and reached into he bag and pulled out a little more clay, she began to play with it. She noticed that Ruli was lost in thought, and that Shiloh was happy to have companions with her. Lyna sighed to the sky as she watched the sun set the rest of the way down.

((move the story along people lol))

((Sorry guys.. I know it should be easy to think of something but i have writers block... Ill post something tomorrow during my free period.... I was hoping for a better turn out))

((don't worry i will recrute people))

((Thanx))

((no problem))

((i don't think anyone else is going to join yet))

((Yeah me neither but lets keep this running))

Shiloh started to walk down the path a little faster with more pride in her stride because she had companions now. It seemed more logical to travel with companions rather than just with no one at all. She stopped for a second thinking there was something coming towards them that posed a threat but let it sleip from her mind for a little while. "So.... Lets um try to get to know eachother... like what are your likes and dislikes. The trip would be better without silence."

Emerging from the nearby woods Carina wiped the debris from her clothes and long dark hair. Man all that climbing and stuff for one leaf she thought blowing her bangs out of her face but it was worth it. Smiling she looked down at the leaf she found, which was quite rare and took three days to find.

Digging into her dark brown leather satchel she pulled out a thick journal and pencil. Looking around she spotted a huge boulder and moved over to sit on it. opening to a blank page she began to sketch out the plant in detail pointing out special features and listing ways in which could be used, her bright green eyes moving back and forth between the two objects.

[[Hello everyone, hope it was a good introduction post!]]

((hello i like your introduction i am just going to assume that your are near the road and our group))

"Well nature, animals, travelling, meeting new people and i dislike violence, but i understand the need for it some times, dresses, and tormenting animals. I don't think we will make to a town beforenight fall. Maybe we should camp out to night." she said as she looked around and noticed that tere was a girl sitting on a rock near the woods. She stopped walking and stared at her for a while, she seemed familiar to her but she couldn't place it. As Lyna played with the clay in her hand, she slowly walked over to her, the clay was taking an unkown shape to Lyna. She moved closer forgetting that she was travalling with some people that she had just meet. Lyna moved behind her and looked over her shoulder to see what she was drawing, then she moved in front of her so she wouldn't surprise her when she spoke. "Excuse me, you are really talented." Lyna said as she commented on the picture the human girl was drawing. Looking down at the clay in her hand, she saw that it turnned out to be some sort of plant.

Sensing someone come near her Carina paused in her drawing to look a up too see a girl with silver hair in front of her. Blinking she was barely able to register that last two words she said. "Why thank you!" she said brightly a smile lighting up her face. Standing up and brushing of her skirt she noticed the clay figure in her hand. "Did you make that?" she said gesturing to it, the bangles on ehr wrist making a light tinkering sound as she did.

((sorry i started out with one point of view then i went to another lol i fixxed it to the frist point of view that i was using))

"Um...yes i did, i never did a plant before. If you want it you can have it, i have plenty of other figures i have done in my bag. I can always make more." Lyna said as she handed the strange plant to the dark skin woman in front of her. She looked back towards her new found companions and saw that they stopped and watched her exchange words with the stranger. "I am sorry. I am not really talkative but i saw you and you reminded me of someone but i can't remember whom. Oh my name is Lyna, Lyna Lunair." Lyna said as she introduced her self a little to late for some people's taste but all the same better late then never. She pulled out another piece of clay and started to play with as she has done with the many other pieces before it.

The whole exchange had been watched by a small spec in the sky. 'They look like they're having fun and could be nice. I just hope I'm not wrong this time.' As the sun slowly progressed across the sky a small finch, built for speed began coasting steadily towards the ground. 'Last time was so terrifying, but that wasn't their fault. Those shape-shifters showed up and ruined everything. So, I guess it was my fault...' About 30 feet until landing the finch slowed and began to turn away from the group and back towards the comfort of the trees lining the path. 'Maybe I'm not supposed to find a family.'

Taking the sculpture she looked it over carefully taking in the details "It's beautifully done Lyna." Carina said taking out a cloth from her satchel and carefully wrapping the sculpture in the and placing it back in her bag. "My name is Carina and I tend to be overly talkative." Reaching out she took Lyna's hand in her's and have it a light shake "Nice to meet you and I'm glad I remind you of someone." Seeing her look over her shoulder Carina saw a few other people standing not to far behind them. "Are they your friends?" she asked pointing to them.

((oh just to make it clear Lyna is a shape-shifter and the shape she chooses the most is a fox that is why i said she is a fox shape-shifter just thought i would clear that up))

"Oh thank you. I don't suppose you know what type of plant it is. I guess you could call them my friends. The white haird girl is Shiloh and the guy that looks like he is out of place is Ru Li. We just met each other a while ago, we are heading towards a town for the night but i don't think we will make it in time. You can join us if you like." Lyna said as she noticed a finch fly into the woods, she cocked her head to the side a little bit because something about that finch reminded her on how she was told to identify a race of people. She pushed it out of her head and looked back towards Carina. Smileing at her she moitioned towards the other two as she introduced them to her. "It is nice meeting you, Carina." the tan youth said as she looked down at the peice of clay in her hand and noticed it looked like the finch that flew into the woods but there was something off about it.

((Oh and since the other two aren't on or anything they will just be silent tag along partners))

[[Ru Li is very much a silent companion as well. I'll only post when necessary for him; every little thing doesn't need a post from me; just assume he's silent and watching when I don't deem he's doing anything else.]]

'It can't possibly hurt to just follow them. Then I can help them if they get hurt! Yes, this way I might make friends and I should be safe.' Ko made her decision quickly as she notice the group beginning to reembark. She landed in a tree at the edge of the path to watch were they were headed, then shifted to her favorite small ground form of a white squirrel with various dark brown markings. She jumped from tree to tree and traveled along the ground in the grasses making sure to never lose sight of the party before her, even when she would gather seeds and nuts to eat along the way.
Ko couldn't help getting excited and running ahead of them at times just to fly from branch to branch and taunt the other squirrels with her superior acrobatics.

Remembering how the clay sculptued looked she answered Lyna's inquisition "Well it looked liked the Bird of Paradise flower but the leaves were a little bit rounder. Then she turned and bowed the other Shilo and Ru Li as she was introduced to them as it was alittle to far for a handshake.Gathering up her things and shouldering her bag and moving over to the other two"It would be a pleasure to join you all." Stopping she tilted her head and she heard a few squirrels moving threw the trees. Sounds like they are having fun

Shiloh started to walk with the rest of the group... There were so many people that she just met and that had just joined... She was practically speechless as she saw something in the trees that was running along with them. She took out her sketch pad and started to draw again as they walked trying to get to the next town though it didnt seem possible as they kept meeting people over and over again.

Balthazar sat in the forrest trying to concentrate on his honing his sword skills. He loved the woods, it let him be himself and it was the one place he didnt feel ashamed to be different in. As he practiced he let his one wing out using it like a sheild, as he coated it with electricty. He didnt know why he used the forest to train besided that it was the first place he could remember ever.

Lyna smiled for the frist time she met everyone and tucked the clay finch into her pocket. She walkwed over to the rest of the group and looked back towards the sun. "Shiloh, do you think we could just camp out here to night. It doesn't look like we are going to reach the next town." Lyna asked as she turnned back and looked at Shiloh and the others. We made our selves quite an interestting group. I wonder why we are meeting so many people now? She shook her head to get her self focussed on the group she was apart of.

((sorry if it is short))
