(-hugs for Naura-just glad you're here ^_^ Sorry your week's been crappy)

((Hello :) I'm new to this role-play and I'll start soon once I've read up on what's happened. ))

(first day at work guys just got home ^^)

((How did it go? :D Was work good?

Oh, and I'm glad I made people cry!! Mwahahaha, I did good! :twisted:))

Inno closed her eyes, leaning against Gabriel as he allowed her to. For many minutes she wasn't quite aware of the world - only tears. Sniffing a few times, she let her tears flow . . . before reaching up to wipe them away furiously. It was the first time she'd related the story to anyone - she hadn't even told the full tale to her brother.
"Don't pity me," she said, shaking her head. "I didn't tell our past to get more feeling from you." Blinking rapidly, the elf sat up, crossing her legs beneath her again. "I-I . . ." the blonde woman glanced to Sapphira, and she stood suddenly. "Thank you for dinner," she choked out before spinning on her heel and swiftly stepping away from the group. She meant it . . . but her heart was burdened. She wished for things to be as they had once been - but there was no chance of that. One couldn't bring back the dead or reverse time.
Heading for the darkness, Inno bit back a few more sobs as she moved away from the group. She hated others seeing her cry. She didn't want to break down like she was.
-

Vin'dehl slowly approached Lyna, holding a hand out to lightly brush her arm. "It's only me," he said quietly, his gray eyes moving about the area to ensure it's safety. "Why are you out here alone? You could get lost or hurt." Though his words were worried, his tone was firm and strong - curious, even.
-

Dante frowned when the vampire spoke, and shook his head. "I'm fine," he growled, ignoring the lance of pain that seared through him when he stood. The gold dragon let a low growl rumble in his chest for a moment as he steadied himself, and then headed forward. He'd gotten no more than a few steps when the cross on his chest suddenly burned worse than any amount of silver could have.
Letting out a muted cry, Dante's gauntleted hand flew up to his chest, and he paused to breathe - unfortunately, the wound seemed to be letting a weight settle onto his chest. Breathing coming in shortened gasps, the broad-shouldered male fell to one knee, an expression of agony flitting across his face. What . . .?

((I needed something to keep this little tyrant from going after them. :sweat: So, yes . . . he is more wounded than he cares to let on.))

-Gabriel held her as long as she'd let him then when she was ready to be let ho his arms fell to his side as she rose before him spinning around on her heel. He could tell she wasn't use to being this vulnerable in front of people and he got on his knees and asked her forgiveness upon him for asking the question-"I'm so sorry Inno, please forgive me." However, when Gabriel looked up she was gone. He sighed again to himself and hung his head shoulders slack and his arms at his side not knowing what to do. If he should follow or give her space and time alone.

He looked down to his bowl it was almost empty but he had not any more the apatite to eat anything else. Gabriel looked to Sapphira and bowed his head softly-"Coupled with the meets, juices, and spices the stew was extremely delicious. Thank you for your service Sapphira"

((you are black listted for being evil!!!! wait i don't have a black list in this one......dang))

"I believe i grew up around here....and i only believe that because i know the land so well....i just know i won't get hurt or lost. It just something know evn though i can't remember." she siad to him as she grabbed his hand when it brushed her arm, she used it to help her self up off the ground. Her words were soft, they held the sound of the knowlegde that she had long forgotten. Once she was standing she brushed the hair out of her face as if it were habit, she hadn't bothered braiding it again, there was no point since she was blind.

(aw yeah good thinking but it looks like hes being stubborn miranda better go stop him)
Miranda runs toward Dante since its already has gotten dark"are you alright?"she notices the cross wound is bothering him"Do you need some help?"she touches Dantes shoulder gently as not to hurt him.Miranda kneels on one knee to Dantes right side"you need rest we'll catch them later".

Sapphira looked at her empty bowl of soup. ....i will kill the Gold one for the honor of the other Dragons and the Dragon Speakers....He will not remain on this earth as the hateful abomination that he is.... She looked up at the empty places next to her and the one where Lyna should be. She turned her head and saw the depressed Gabriel and Axel still sitting by the fire. "...Thank you Gabriel...." She said the anger in her thoughts causing her voice to sound much darker and gutteral.Then she said to the open air, not anyone in particular. "....Have some as you feel you want more..." She Turned away from the fire and sat still with her hands making a circle on her lap.

{FYI is a filler post to get a Gabriel/Sappira convo started since she can't run off after Inno or Vin'dehl}

((Haha, yeah . . . poor Saphira. :XD))

Inno headed a little ways off from the group sitting down and burying her head in her hands. Pulling her knees up to her forehead, she sobbed silently for a few minutes before sitting still, listening to the coming sounds of night. She let the night creatures and sounds ebb and flow about her, enveloping her in calming peace.
She would wait until she was in control before returning to her friends. The blonde elf lifted her purple gaze to the starry sky, sniffing and wiping the remaining tears away. If only things could be as they once were.
-

Inno narrowed his eyes, watching Lyna as she got to her feet. "We should head back to the others," he said quietly, linking his arm with hers. "It's getting even darker, and they will worry if we're away for too long." Glancing in the direction of the softly glowing fire, the tall elf took a slow breath. In a way, he didn't want to return. But he felt obligated to - for Inno, and for the others.
"This way," he prompted, gently leading the young woman in the direction of the group.
-

With a growl, Dante smacked Miranda's hand away from him. "I'm . . . fine," he gasped, turning his face away from the vampire. He hated being so . . . weak. The wound wouldn't be this bad if it hadn't been made by a holy blade. He grit his teeth, red eyes flashing as he determinedly forced himself to stand again. Unfortunately, his body had other plans.
The male's legs gave out beneath him, a wave of darkness enveloping him for a moment like a tide of dizziness. Perhaps I'm not as well off as I thought.

((*totally wants to steal your sig* i think you mean Vin'dehl lol))

"If you say so...." she whispered almost guiltily to him, she let him link his arm with hers and guide her back to the campsite. She tried to tred softly and carfully so she wouldn't fall and cause more damage to her self, which caused her to cling to Vin'dehl like he was the only thing well safe around her, which technically he was. Her foot got caught on a root and she stumbled forward some, almost bringing Vin'dehl to the ground with her, she mumbled an apology as she blushed slightly. She figured if she had her eye sight that she wouldn't have to relie on him so much and drag the group down with her.

(cute signature esmme)
"ouch"miranda gets up and shakes her hand"your not fine"she could senses Dantes weakness and frowns."how am I gonna take care of him?"she thinks to herself and when she looks up she notices Dante feel so she kneels beside him and put his arm around her shoulders then helps him back to the cave.

((*beams* I'm glad you like my siggy! He's SO darn cute!! *huggles little L*))

Vin'dehl let out a quiet exclaimation, his second hand moving to help steady Lyna as she stumbled. Though the both of them had nearly fallen, the elf was able to keep his footing - for the most part. "You're alright," the male said, his gray eyes lingering on her blind features as he righted them both. "I don't mind."
Leading her onward, he tried to avoid most of the things that Lyna would trip over, but since it was getting even darker, he had trouble avoiding all of them. He shifted his arm under hers to help support her and keep her from falling, but that wasn't a fool-proof way to keep Lyna on her feet. A silence followed them all the way back to the camp - the soft glow was a welcome sight for Vin'dehl, and it showed in his voice.
"We're almost there," he said quietly, gaze flickering between the fire and Lyna.
-

Dante grit his teeth, hissing lightly as Miranda helped him to his feet. "I'm fine," he repeated breathlessly, though his attempt to get away from her showed otherwise. He relented, allowing her to lead him back to the under-root cave. By the time they got there, he was nearly shaking from the effort. Who would have known that one wound could cause so much trouble?
Practically collapsing to the ground when he was allowed, Dante took a few steadying breaths. His red eyes moved to the vampire, and then darted back to the outside world. He didn't thank her - he seemed to wounded to do so. Not physically, but mentally. He hated being weak - and this was a large blow to his pride.

-Gabriel sat in place and nodded to Sapphira's offer but he wouldn't take more until Vin and Lyna ate. He wanted to make sure there was enough for them both to have a helping of stew. Gabriel, looking around just grabbed what was around him which was grass. he started after grabbing enough of it weaving little chains out of boredom sighing. He made a long chain and wrapped it around his head playfully making a crown-

{~lol yay so much posting!~ i thought it was Sapp/Vin, Gab/Inno, Miranda/Dante, and Lyna/Axel~}

Sappira sat in silence ignoring Gabriel and Axel. Her back was warmed by the fire. She looked up from the ground when she heard noises in the forest. She set her bowl on the ground to clear her hands if they were ambushed. "Vin'dehl?~"

Lyna stopped in her tracks, pulling Vin’dehl to a top with her, she turned her face to were she heard his voice come from. She stepped closer to him, being more careful then when they were walking, she wrapped her arms around him and hugged him closer to her. “Thank you……” she whispered into his chest, after a few minutes of her hugging him, she pulled away some and began to walk again. Biting her lip every time she hurt her self or tripped over something, it was quit amazing that she had gotten that far into the woods with out having this problem.

((sorry i think i will have to kick Noura out guys i don't want to but i don't think she is keeping up with this rp and what not so yea..... :( ))

((Give her a couple more days -looks up at softly begging at your feet- Please))

((Hmm..... *looks down at the five inch man* oh alright but if she doesn't post soon i will have to warn her or ask her if she wants to leave))

(whoa i'm against that we can't hold work against noura)
Miranda lays Dantes down sighs and sits next to him"you men and your pride"she smiles at him"I'm not hurt by how cold you are, but you are very lucky I helped you"Miranda closes her eyes and thinks back to how she was left for dead. After a minute she opens her red eyes and looks at Dante"at least your not leaving me for dead".

{~lol srry to promote on another thread, but check out Silver Lining Academy for the Gifted~}

~sounds like alot of fun i'm working on my profile right now~

Vin'dehl was about to respond to Sapphira when Lyna wrapped her arms about him. The elf blushed heavily, thankful that she was blind and it was dark. As soon as the girl slipped away from him, the tall male cleared his throat, calling out to Sapphira.
"I found her."
-

Dante grimaced, and then forced himself to lie still. Ignoring the pain in his chest wasn't easy. After keeping expression from his pale face for many moments, he finally caved and let the look of torture envelope his features.
"At least your not leaving me for dead."
"W-what?" he asked, his red eyes meeting her gaze as they flickered with more pain - which triggered rage. "Why would I leave you for dead?"

((Don't worry, Kings! I'll have Inno wander back. ;)))

Miranda looks at Dantes and smiles"you wouldn'tshe lowers her head so he can't see the sad expression on her face"but my family did"she knew she couldn't cry so she looks up and back at Dante"i'll have to heal your wound its making you weak i can feel it"she wonders how to cure these wounds since shes never done it before.

"How does a vampire heal anything?" Dante asked quietly, sombered for a moment. Poor girl. Narrowing his red eyes, he leaned back, hissing as he did so.

Lyna could no longer walk any farther so she sat down where she was at which was near the river, she startted to finger the scar on her wrist. After a while she pulled the blindfold off and seemed to look out across the water. She splashed some onto her face before she tied it back over her eyes, she tilted her head towards the sky, all the while it seemed like she could see and was just being by her self.

Miranda looks up at Dante and smiles" it won't be hard at all"she nods"but i'm gonna have to have you take off your shirt so I can see your wound". Miranda thinks to herself*I hope I can heal his wounds*.
