There's Something in the Air

G`reth twirled through the air, avoiding the pathes of clouds. He was high enough that anyone below would think him a bird. The dragon harrumphed at this thought. Let them see him. Let them fear the riders or challenge them face to face. They would fall...

Sam sat on her dragon's back, relaxing. She felt the cool breeze race against her face, gently pulling at her hair. She let out a sigh of content and glanced down. The lake Flam was disappearing quickly behind them as was the sight of the Spine. And onto Bullsridge. Then the Hardarac. The elf hoped she was leading her riders away from danger, not straight into it. Someone nudged her concious lightly and she realized it was her dragon. Allowing the red in, G`reth gradually pulled her way from her body and more into his, allowing her to feel the freedom of his flight. Her mind was filled with elation and the dragon smiled, missing the happier, carefree times with his partner. [/font]

Blaze streched out her arms, sniffing the air. "I smell a herd of deer that-awaya." Blaze said nodding in the opposite direction from where the two tag alongs went to. "Or, we could always just kill the boy and drink his blood." Blaze added in an undertone. Blaze stopped suddenly. Why did Darkest send the boy here? It was all very questionable. Blaze looked down at endoh, she could easily summon him, but he was probably mad that she had tried to kill him. And, she did just sort of remember that it wasn't darkest that had killed her. Blaze thought about it, the wheels turning over in her brain. She gripped endoh and murmumered, "darkest."

Blaze placed Endoh back through her belt then turned around, holding her hands slightly up in the universal signal of peace. "I should have believed you when you said you knew who killed me." Blaze told him, speaking clearly and getting straight to the point. "I saw her, the drow who killed me, and I remembered. But, then that also rises this question, why is she working for you? And did you order her to kill me, cause if so, I'm not sorry I tried to murder you, and I am sorry that blade didn't work."

Blaze looked at Darkest trying to decide if she believed what he was saying or not. Sam enterjected with some new information. "You poisned Sam?" Blaze asked, in almost disbelief. 'Then sent two of your people to her? That just seems so wrong. Why did you do it? And that boy you sent, Jezzin? Did you know he's scared of the things the go bumb in the night? Pitiful really."

Blaze shyed away from the bright light. It burnt her eyes and after a few seconds of confustion she glanced down to see Leiko in her hands. That means Darkest took Endoh. Well, Blaze had been trying to get Leiko back for a while now. Although, she probably should have told Darkest that she had enchanted Endoh (this was mentioned in a post far back) so that it would come back to her when she told it too. She quickly laid the same spell over Leiko, she never wanted to be seperated from her swords again, then sommoned Endoh back to her. Finally, she had both twins together again.

Blaze sheathed her two swords and turned to Sam and Salah. "Hunting. That's what was next isn't it?" She asked with a smile.

Moth sprang into action, putting up a shield to stop the acid's flight and deflecting the two knives with one of her own. Falcydior bounded, quietly for all his bulk, into the clearing, ready for a fight. |Where are they?| he growled urgently.
|Long gone by now. They went through a portal of some sort.| Moth replied, pulling the dart from Heir's chest. "Are you okay?" she asked out loud.

Adela rubbed her head, blinking several times. "What happened?" she asked. She had seen a huge blast of fire, but she could hardly remember anything that happened before or after that. The familiar coldness of the air went right down to her bones and she rubbed her arms vigorously. Glancing around her, Adela said faintly, "Why are we back here again?" She noticed Caelia pull a new figure into the portal, one that she had not met before. "And who is he?"

"Yeah." Blaze said nodding. "Lets go." She turned on her heel and ran in the direction of the deer. Her feet were silent as she padded across the forest floor. She kept an eye on the ground, careful that she wouldn't step on anything that would go SNAP! Blaze stopped right at the borderline of the forest and a small clearing with a brooke running through it. She looked at Salah to check that she was ready, then jumped into the clearing. She headed straight for a buck drinking from the river and snapped his neck. A quick and painless death she hoped. She lowered her fangs and drank.

"I never pledged myself to anything or anyone if that's what you mean by 'traitor.'" Knurla defended, although he knew it probrably didn't matter. He really didn't appreciate being grabbed and forcibly pulled into the portal.
Knurla acknowledged Laron's answer to Adela's question, but however secure this place was he still wanted to know where it was.
"So what exactly did you accomplish back there, as far as Heir is concerned?" Knurla directed toward Darkest.

----

Back where(ever) Heir was, he was temporarily paralyzed-for how long he didn't know, but he'll soon find out (hopefully!)-Heir spoke telepathically to Moth, "No. It would seem nothing is going right today."
David rushed up to Moth and Heir and started working on a catalyst poison to counteract the dart's affect on Heir.
"He'll be alright." David explained to Moth, "But we have things to do. That includes following THEM. Knurla told me something before he was taken into that portal." He looked at Heir with sharp eyes. "Apparently you were our test subject. Your magic may be gone, but you're the only one in the Brotherhood without it. Of course...the Brotherhood, exactly, is dead in Knurla's eyes. But he has other goals in mind, for the best of you Heir, so we need to find out where they went." He turned his head back to Moth, "Did you plan on coming with us?"
