Vexous smiled. "well done Sakura, i know we're moving fast with you, but i know you have it in you. okay just relax and give me full control. but make sure you hold on" she cracked her neck as she walked outside. "well have to clean up a little later."
she began running extremely fast in the direction of Josephine's cave. gliding and jumping over fallen trees it was as if she wasn't even touching the ground. in no time they reached the cave. "sakura do what you can to help the birds, they are injured, me and Josephine will fight the wolves." she whispered.

Josephine was slipping from shock to pure rage as she stared at the gray wolf who had so casually injured her friend. 'You will die alone, you will rot alone, you will live alone, and you will love but be unloved.' as she spoke she wove a curse of her hatred and threw it into the farthest reaches of his mind, her fury providing her strength.
"HA! As if you're words alone will make it so!" he said, laughing. "I can guarantee that you will not fight with me and win." he stood staring at her, so he didn't notice Vexous enter the cave behind him.
"You reek of Vampire. BETA, stand down, you wouldn't want to kill her before the leeches arrive now would you?" the leader commanded, practically sneering at Josephine.
"I would tear out your wings if it was my decision to make."
'Vexous, are you ready?' Josephine inquired quietly. She stood tall and raised dragon scales to her skin and dragon claws to her hands. 'Lacsar, take care of the hatchlings!' With that final command, she leaped at the leader, taking him by surprise and opening a long gash in his muzzle.


(let the fight begin)

Vexous had entered the cave quickly they hadn't noticed her yet. good. the thought. nodding at Josephine; to the are you ready question. She grabbed the wolf that was going for Josephine's back. Graping it by the neck she slammed it hard against the floor. causing it to yelp. her fangs were bared as she hissed at the pack. one...two three....four five six...seven and eight, this should be a piece of cake. she sent to Josephine as she kicked another wolf in the face causing it's jaw to break. the smell of blood erupted through out the cave.
her speed and her strength were equal to that of the wolfs and maybe alittle more. ripping another wolfs tail clean off it's back side it collapsed as if pallized. "wow it really does work!" she smiled, but that one second of her letting down her guard aloud a wolf to claw her right across the face, 4 deep gashes opened on her face and she greeted her teeth against the pain. it was hard to not cry out. but thats what put her over the edge. she ripped and tore apart the wolf that had clawed her and went after another.

Sakura tried to hold on to the the best of her abilities, not even knowing how she was doing it. Once they arrived, she was getting out of Lady Vexous's body, but her foot got stuck. She had to grab and yank it out as Lady Vexous ran off. "Help the birds?" She looked around in the cave. How? She decided to run over to one of the more authoritative birds there in the cave. "Lady Vexous sent me, How can I help?"

Alex let out a gasp for she was startled a bit when the young man approached her. She looked him up and down for a moment, not sure whether to run or accept his offer. But her curiosity overwhelmed her and she exclamed, "Oh yes please! This place is magnificent! But I have to admit that I am kind of lost..." She smiled and laughed nervously. She quarreled amongst herself, Oh Alex, you're so stupid. Why didn't you run? You could be in terrible danger!...But it's so amazing... She sighed.

Josephine stared at the three remaining wolves and smirked, 'This'll be a piece of cake.' She ran towards the closest of the three, a large black wolf. "You will not kill us!" he roared, charging at her. 'You will not live to stop me.' she moved forward striking him across the chest, tearing a gash straight through to his tail. She glanced at the other two, who had begun to circle her. Roaring, the one behind lunged at her, tearing a gash across her forearms as she raised them to block. The other rose to attack her exposed wings, but couldn't get close enough to strike. 'Thank you.' Josephine muttered to the raven who was concentrating on keeping the barrier up. She brought one arm up, slashing it across the muzzle of the wolf in front of her, bringing a howl of pain. She turned to look behind her at the wolf trying to claw his way through the barrier. 'Now!' she yelled to the raven, who instantly dropped the shield. The werewolf fell forward with a yelp, landing on his muzzle. She ran forward and ripped the wolf’s head off, killing him instantly. She looked to Vexous worried, watching as the lead wolf approached her.
"Can you heal?" Lacsar asked the ghost floating on the edges of the battle. "I would appreciate it if you helped our friend. His wing is broken and bleeding from three gash wounds." He looked over at Roirraw, worried.
"You will die for your insolence leech." the lead wolf yelled, leaping for Vexous and swiping at her as he sprang past, aiming for her shoulder. He turned to see the outcome of his blow, expecting her to be left with no right arm.

(Respond as you wish :D)

Sakura's eyebrows needled together and she bit her lip uncertainly. "Um...I'm not sure...but I can try...I'm finding out I can do all kinds of stuff." she gave a nervous chuckle. She knelt down next to the hawk like creature, examining it's wounds carefully before gently placing her hands over them. She closed her eyes tight and tried to focus. Heal...heal...heal...heal...
Soon her hair began to slowly lift and whip around her, her body giving off a faint glow.

Vexous hissed as her arm detached from her body, blood rushed out. She glared and took a large step towards the wolf. "you, BEAST will not leave here alive." she shifted into her shadow form and flew straight at his body tearing it in half, not a clean cut ether. The wolf howled from the pain until it only twitched on the floor covered in it's own blood.
Shifting back to her true form she picked up her arm and reattached it hissing as it healed and held it's self in place. her eyes glowed a deep red, she'd lost a large amount of blood and needed to feed soon, or risk losing herself to blood lust.
"Josephine i think it would be wise to take your friends and yourself to the castle, until we can find out why this happened." she dare not look at her, she hated being this way. Her voice so harsh so unnatural. "sakura be sure to helpl then, i'll meet you at the castle once i clean and feed."
she ran out the cave and headed start for the castle. Josephine do not worry i will be fine and so will your friends. Before long she was standing behind the human that was in front of Acheron, in her shadow form so that nether of them could see her, she licked her lips and waited for just the right moment.

Acheron smiled at the girl. "my name is Acheron, i am a butler here, please dont feel as if your intruding, this happens more then you can intimation." he gestured for her to follow him as he feel a cold ripple run down his spin. Vexous is her and hungry! he tensed and tried to locate her, but couldn't. Clearing his throat her moved behind the girl, "this way"
in this state she'll kill the girl.

Vexous grinned as Acheron tensed. your still afraid of me, even after all we've been through!? she sent to him. Moving more quickly then he could, she grabbed the girl by the hair exposing her neck, bending down she bite down hard and let the warm think liquid run down her throat.

Josephine stared as Vexous reattached her arm, confused. 'I should feed too, but that means I need to nab another shark.' she sighed, disappointed 'They ate my last one.' She glanced over at the embers. 'I'm going to have to carry them as a dragon.' she started out to the ocean, once again jumping off. This time she found to large sharks, and swiftly transformed to deal with them. She grabbed one in her mouth, and took the other one in her back claws. Josephine shoot out of the water and began the journey to the castle. 'Lacsar! As soon as Roirraw is healed, bring the others to the castle, we're going to be staying there from now on.' she told him, reaching the castle's door. She entered, then made her way down to the garden, where Tania and Rasul were sitting. 'I brought you a shark.' she said to Tania, putting one of them in front of her and tearing into the other.
'Will do mistress!' Lacsar replied, gathering the birds together. "We're going to be staying at a castle that me, Draug, and Roirraw visited earlier."

Tania looked at the strange person sitting in front of her. "It's for me?" she asked hesitantly.
'You can have it if your hungry.' Josephine replied.
"Wait. You're that strange voice I heard earlier." Tania looked hungrily at the shark, then sprang forward and bit into it, draining it of blood. 'That was delicious,' she thought to herself, staring at the other one in Josephine's mouth, 'I just wish I could have both of them.'
'Hahahaha. You're new to Telepathy aren't you? If you want, I'll show you how to catch the sharks, but it might be a little hard to get back up the cliff.' Josephine looked at Tania and frowned, 'As long as you let me eat the rest of it, you can drain the blood.' Josephine handed over the shark, and reached for the one Tania had already drained and began tearing into it. Tania likewise grabbed the shark, and after taking several long drinks offered it to Rasul, "Would you like some Mas-, should I call you Rasul now that I'm a vampire too?"

Alex couldn't help but feel that something was wrong as Acheron led her to away from their location. "Oh okay, my name is Alex by the way." She felt it was only polite to introduce herself back. But her feeling of unease soon disappeared as she saw more of the castle. She began to dart back and forth across the hallway from realistic paintings to elegantly designed doors. "Ooo! I can't believe it! Everything she told me is true!"

Eventually, Sakura began to feel weak. She dropped her hands to her side with a sigh. "Did it work?" She asked, not wanting to see for herself if she failed.

Rasul watched the transaction quietly, and stared as his newborn drank her fill. He had not been created as a telepath but he knew how to think to someone who was. As she offered the remains he witheld a grimace and shook his head. "Animal blood makes me ill. Drink your fill," he said politely and then thought for a moment. "You don't have to call me Master anymore. Nut just remember that the connection between us has gone between slave and master." The water's warmth was a little more inviting now and he slowly lowered himself until he was submerged. It did not ease the hunger but it strengthened him. After a fe minutes he lifted himself up and shook the water out of his hair. "Where is Vexous? Is she still with the lycan?"

Nix could hear the beast came threw in Mikhial's voice. He wondered if Mikhial new that he sent in wolf not english. It took Nix a minute to comprehend the growls and whimpers by the time his mind put it all together Mikhial was dissapearing from his sight among the trees.Nix tried his best to catch up but realized that the manny days of travel and small feedings had left him weak. By the time Nix caught up to Mikhial they were near what appeared to be a curch. Confused Nix hung back alittle wondering what Mikhial was up to.

Mikhial followed along behind his targets silently, onawear of his own follower as he watched. It didn't take long for him to relized that the one figure that he couldn't place the smell of was a ghost. Something unedable to Mikhial but still opposing of a threat. Not worth confronting something thats already and may have magical powers to use on him so he waited for him the ghost to be on its way before he neared the Church. He could smell that it was full of people. People that in his current state of mind that he would love to rip to shreds.

Josephine stared at Rasul, 'No, Vexous came back to the castle before I did, she must be around here somewhere.' She glanced back over to Tania, 'If you like it that much, I'll go get you some more.'

"Urg." Roirraw moaned, "I don't ever want to do that again." He stood up, testing his wings. "Hey! It's not broken anymore!" He looked up at the ghost and did a little head bob, in the place of a bow. "Thank you," Draug said "but you don't look so good. Do you need any help?"

Tania looked up at Josephine, "Really? Shark blood is de-lic-ious." She smiled, turning to Rasul. She jumped forward to hug him, "I'm so happy, I'm finally a vampire!"

Sakura smiled and gave a sigh of relief. She had did it. "You're welcome." She then turned to the other one, "no, I'm fine. It was just that it was my first time and it took alot out of me." She then stood up. "Come on, lets get y'all to the castle where it's safe.."

((with both my people asleep im at a loss for what to do someone wake one of my people up ^_^))

(You could always wake yourself up)

"Where did she go?" Rasul asked, his eyebrows drawing together. Rasul sniffed, his senses heightened by the pang of hunger. "Why do I smell lycan?" he added warily. He was stopped when Tania hugged him. "Let's hope it's a better experience for you, young one. We'll have to keep you fed so you don't go haywire," he advised, trying to smile. She may be called upon to use powers she didn't yet have full control over this very night. Without physically saying a word, he sent a mental message to his wolves. Silently he waited. But there came no response. Something was wrong with his pets. They always responded to their master. He waded out of the lake and paced toward the stairs. "We need to get news from Vexous now."

'We had a little run in with the pack, but I think most of them are dead. There might be one or two still alive.' Josephine looked over at Rasul, 'Vexous is probably out hunting. She killed five werewolves, I'm surprised I'm not going for another shark myself.' She looked over at Tania, who had let go of Rasul. 'Hatchling,' she started, the dragon part of her taking over, 'I'm going to fly to the ocean for more shark, do you want to come?'

Tania looked up at Josephine and stuttered "N-No, I'll help Rasul find Vexous, you go ahead without me." She ran over to Rasul and followed him up the stairs, "Where do you think Vexous could be?"

Josephine shrugged in response and flew out of the Garden, heading back over to the ocean, 'This time I'm bringing back as many sharks as I can carry.' She came back with three sharks and circled, looking for Vexous. 'Maybe she'd like some.' she thought to herself.

Lacsar stood beside the flock, making sure no one was hurt, then took off through the entrance of the cave and brought the flock to roost in the castle, silently telling them to stay there. He found a comfortable spot in the rafters, and tucked in his wings for sleep.

Nix began to worry normally Mikhial would have noticed him coming up. Something wasn't right. Nix began to wonder how long it had ben since Mikhial had last ate. It must have ben a long time if the Lunar flower was having this strong of an effect. As Mikhial leaned forward Nix realized the relic was gone. This wasn't good, the relic not only gave Mikhial's family strength it also kept them in "check". "Mikhail what are you thinking we can't feed in a crowded place like this?"Nix tried sending in wolf the best he could. But there seemed to be some sort of mental block that stoped the message from going through. This was not good this ment Mikhial was in full out beast mode all that mattered was the hunt. I hope I don't have to use the ancient spell that bound his pack to my family...plus i'm not sure i remember all the words. Nix thought worridly to himself

Mikhial quietly stalked his way to the door. He scratched at it once as if he were a dumb animal wanting in. Then he sat back on his haunches and maneuvered his paws about the door so to open it. He heard the door click and he slid his nose between the door and its frame so to nudge it open. Then slipping in threw the door, leaving it open behind him, a light draft blew in and rustled the loses hangings on the inside of the place.

Mikhial stopped for an instance and sniffed the air that flowed in from behind him. It was a vampire with out a doubt. "Theres no way I'm going to let some vamp take my banquet hall." He thought to himself and sent out loud, not even realizing that the sent he smelt was Nix. Nor did he even realize Nix trying to send to him. He was to far gone into his animal state for that to make a difference.

Then came the chance that Mikhial was waiting for. A couple (two) of the people from the order had wondered their way to the door way to see what the noise was. Mikhial took to the shadows beyond the door and waited for them to wonder closer to it. As they just with in the reach of the door handle, Mikhial sprung from his hiding spot, tackling one of them to the ground. He grasped his teeth about his neck and ripped out his throat. Then leaping to the next one as they shrank back in fright, at the sight of the large wolf. In an instant Mikhial had him pinned to the wall. But not before he could let out a shriek for help. Mikhial standing on his hind legs, looking the man in the face before clasping his teeth on both sides of his and ripping his flesh from his body as the victim died in fear.

Then more people (about 20) rushed into the room, frolicking about the site that was there as they wove their way around the pews. Looking for what could have done it. Then suddenly Mikhial lept from under the seats taking down one after another as if it were child's play. "I got to get them all before they scream." Mikhial thought to himself with a laugh as he was already half way done with demolishing his current set of victims and continuing on to the next ones.

(do as you guys wish with the remaining victims, when you come)

Rasul's eyes widened when he heard about the werewolves. "My pets," he hissed to himself and sprinted up the stairs, hardly waiting for Tania. "I don't know. But this is strange for all those werewolves to attack like that. Your training may have to wait, my child," he said, keeping his eyes infront of him. He ran outside and looked around. There was a small whine from a short distance off and Rasul bristled, suspecting a lycan. Out of the shadows crawled a small red wolf, head lowered and tail between its legs. It's insides trailed through the grass beneath it. It looked up at Rasul through it's one undamaged eye. Rasul took a step back in horror. "What happened to you, young one?" he asked. It's ears fell back and it closed its eye, maybe in shame or pain. We...We thought they w-were part of your pack...We thought you called them to help us guard. They weren't true wolves though. We l-let our guard down, Master, the little thing whispered quietly into Rasul's head. It crept closer until it was just infront of Rasul and then layed down gingerly, resting it's head pitifully on his boot. Forgive us for failing. And then it suffered no more. Rasul knelt down and petted the creature's head. "You did well," he muttered and rose, clearing his throat. "Come, we still need to get all the details from Vexous," he said quietly over his shoulder to Tania.

Araceli's eyes snapped open. Something wasn't right as she sat up in her bed, things were all too quiet suddenly. She sat very still and strained to hear familiar sounds of the other members when she didn't she decided to get up and investigate.
Walking to one of her large closets, she opened the doors quietly eyeing her own door as she reached in to grab a few things.
She strapped a special and slender set of throwing knives to her right thigh, and secured a long dagger to her upper left arm underside. Grabbing her usual and most favored sword, Araceli decided it was good to go investigate what was going on.

She took to the stairs quietly, slipping down them with the grace of a cat. Upon reaching halfway down them a smell greeted her. It was the smell of freshly spilled blood and from the strength of it there was a lot of it somewhere. She continued on carefully noticing the main hall was empty except for the two crumpled forms lying on the floor. Looking ahead of her and away from the bodies Araceli noticed the doors to the main cathedral open and what looked like a large wolf moving rapidly through the form slaughtering members of the Order that were in there.

"How dare you slaughter innocent lives that are far more frail than you." She hissed as she moved down towards where the wolf was.

Acheron gasped as Vexous bit into him, he passed out as she drained him close to the point of death. thats when Vexous noticed the small girl he was with. "you there! what are you doing here?" that was the last thing Acheron heard as his body hit the ground hard.

Vexous smiled, blood dripping from her lips, "it's a good thing he stepped behind you otherwise you would have been my dinner!." she said to the girl. her eyes were deep red as she licked her lips and dived into the humans mind. "aww Alex, what a lovely name." she said as she found out the girl had only wondered in because of curiosity. "curiosity killed the cat you know." looking into the girls eyes she smiled. "now little one follow me" she said in a hypnotic voice, "i have a use for you"

Darious frowned as a chill went down his spin. "hmmmm"
turning around he could only just she flicking lights in the distance through the thick trees.
"it's probably nothing but i should hurry back to the castle just in case."
He started running, and didn't stop till he reached the castle.
