Ryu's ears twitched slightly as Lini's raised voice echoed about the temple. Though he could not see the female's angry hand gesture, he sensed her displeasure increasing. Seemingly undisturbed, he moved his tail from beneath his cloak to adjust his hood. However, as Lini began to tap her foot, the Dragoon's tail again vanished beneath his cloak.

Serini, why would you bring me here? The world has never done anything for me, and I doubt some blind outcast without real training could do anything for it. Right now, it seems pretty clear that I'm not wanted or needed here. So, tell me, why am I at this place at all?

Though she remained unseen, Serini's voice spoke within the warrior's mind. Patience has never been your strength, Ryu. But, you need it now. Wait and learn.

For a short moment, Ryu's tail seemed to swing more rapidly--his only indication of being irritated. However, after a time, his tail resumed its previous rhythm as he attempted to tolerate the sound of Lini tapping her foot.
 
He'd barely known this woman with wings of onyx, but she was showing him kindness. He wasnt a total moron, and knew she was no foe... but he could tell she had some strange side. A darker side... Kinda like a chicken... with the good white meat and the bad dark meat... << Err... It's s'posed ta be funny... >>. Katajii held back a smile as she gently wiped the bolld that trickled down and turned towards the sun.
"One more sunrise and we should be there." He said softly as he began to walk once more. Kyo found himself a small perch and decided to follow them later.
"Skree!"
"Yeah yeah. Finish eatin then you can follow us. An be nice, got it? I wouldnt wanna find you on the end of a skewer..." He scolded.
 
Angel rolled her eyes in annoyance at the man.

" Are you really that dense?" She asked, crossing her arms.

" Heeelllo? I have wings! Baka Humans..." She muttered darkly. The girl lifted into the air easily and hovered, a light scowl on her face.

Tsunami turned to the two mortals emotionlessly. His eyes gleamed knowingly as he examined them.

" I have a task for the two of you..." He stated. " To the far north, in the caves of the dwarves is an orb. The orb of Silienesti. Find it and bring it back here...There will be allies there that can help you. If you truely are part of the six, then you will beable to hold the orb."

<< lost me there a bit... but i gotta go... so... I love you mate! xD ha! >>

Katajii laughed a bit and turned towards her, bearing an impish smile,
"Well... I didnt know how fast you'd heal... but if it wouldnt be a bother... I'm only human... and at the moment... barely able to stand. North from here is my village... whats... left of it... Please... take me to the center of the ruins and stay with me... after that, I will follow you wherever you need me to... as long as i get to kill those responsible for..." He paused a moment, trying to grasp the image of his family in his head... but all he was was a face that had been fading since he awoke.

<<This angel's the main character yer usin right? ... xD anywho... gotta go... sisters suck.. >>
 
(( Yeah Angel's mine and then I also play the gods sometimes.))

Angel wraped her arms around him, her wings fanning out wider. She flapped them once, lifting him into the air with her. Dark energy surrounded them as she flew higher. That was the good thing about her wings, they were bigger in proportion to her body which allowed them to lift more then her. She flew in the direction he had been walking.

"I Will keep that deal to heart Human..." She growled in his ear, her crimson eyes watching for the ruins.

" My name is Angel..." She added.
 
<< -.- last post had typo... 'All he saw was" gomen ne. >>

He shivered as he heard her name. 'Angel' They way she spoke it rang in his ears for a moment. Katajii loved her voice, he noticed, when she wasn't yelling or fighting. But... when she was just... her. He shook off the feeling of nausea that had been setting in as they made thir way to the village. It had been a quiet place. Small, but enough for the people. Many of his friends were important government figures... and no longer living... and it pained him to think of the frivilous times they had together. All matters aside... he actually had fun sometimes, between the boring visits, the pompus flattery of jewles and gold that they wore... when they weren't watched by thousands. He actually got to have some fun.
'But it isnt like that now...' he thought, retching in his mind, 'In the end, the strongest was...'
"Weak. Pathetic. Dishonored." He spoke softly, as he felt the tears swell from his gut, pouring like the waterfalls he'd once trained at. After all that work... he was still as useless as when she died. He felt weaker then he had ever been before, not from the crying, but from the sword. He had figured out it's curse. To take lives, one must give one's own. He didnt really mind it. If he was to die, better in a ball of raging fire then old and sickly. At least, in battle, he would have been worthy of knowing her. Touching her. Kissing her.
"Rho."
Blackness surrounded him.
 
Angel flinched at the sound of a very familiar name, her eyes widening. She almost dropped him in her shock. Where have I heard that before? She shrugged it off as the ruins came into sight. Slowly she circled the area, keeping her eyes peeled for any trouble. She did not want a repeat of what had happened earlier. The dark angel began an easy desent, not wanting to wake the man that she carried. Gently she sat him on the ground before fluttering to her feet a little ways away from him.

She growled in discust at the bloody clothing she wore, annoyed with the stains that would never come out. Angel cast a concerned glance back at the man, confused by him.
 
It was dark where he was. Slowly he regained his senses... only to find he was once again, with his family. They smiled... laughed. Cheered... Everyone was happy. But he remembered this day... all... too... well.
It was the first attack. Planned by the devil it seemed... it wasnt an over powering, all out atrition << sp? >> of a battle... it was... a test. The sake was perfectly warmed, the rice was ready... the fish and chestnuts were being eaten... and they came.
They came for him. For a young boy, who had just had his 16th birthday.
He watched himself as he rose to his feet, the ball of fire igniting the people that stood in it's path. He watched, fearlessly, as it was spewed forth from a half breed dragon. He watched as it dissipated and the beast snickered a smug look as the boy stood like a wall, protecting a girl.
Katajii watched, once again, as the dragon batted him aside like a ball of lint...
And devoured his younger brother. Screaming, the boy raised a katana, striking the beast as it swallowed his poor grandfather. The beast raged, snarling and clawing at everyone he could. It once again threw him to the side before his father and a few of the elders subdued the creature.
Then, Katajii watched the happiest moment of his life... His first true kiss...
Turn to the moment that hauntes his sleepless nights.
He watched the young girl, who was perfectly unharmed...
Get ripped apart by a beast that looked so foul... so hideous... that even the Gods had nightmares. He watched a gaint, dark being filled with hate and sin... destroy an angel that had given him reasons to live.
Then the pain set in. The light of the moon was brighter then he had remembered. Sleeping wasnt good for him... but he was human. A weak human. He had to sleep. But... it hurt so much more to dream then it would to fail in battle.
Either way... he had already lost.
"Home."
 
Angel walked about the area curiously, her ears twitching back and forth. She peered inside a half crumpled building, looking about. Suddenly a yowl filled the air as a streak of pure black shot over her shoulder.

" Nani?" she blinked turning behind her. Angel looked down in surprise, her eyes widening.

" KITTTTYYYYY!!!!!" She yelled. Her voice echoed throughout the ruins, another yowl following it. Angel hugged a small black kitten to her, the cat purring happily.

" Aren't you so cute!!" She beamed, petting it happily. It was an unusual cat to say the least. It looked like a cross between a cat and some sort of dragon creature, black and green colored.
 
The moonlight was irritating... but Katajii found himself focusing on his new companion. He laughed a moment as she cooed over the little kitten, smiling to himself as he shrugged away the pain.
"You always like this, Angel? Or are you just trying to get me to lower my guard?" He jested, bringing his yukata sleeve to cover his mouth. A surpressed cough broke the small silence that had formed, the man lowering his eyes to the ground as soon as he could in response.
 
Angel reguarded the man emotionlessly as the kitten clambered up onto her shoulder. It nuzzled her cheek lovingly and mewed softly.

" It all depends human. I don't plan on killing you...yet..." She replied, her voice deadly serious. " Do what it is that you came for so that we can go. Tsunami is waiting..."

With that she leapt into the air and allighted atop a wall that still stood, the cat clinging to her shoulder.
 
He sighed, looked about, and shuffled towards a small gravesite. Even thought the foundations were gone, he knew this village by heart. "
This is where I set her..." He began quietly, "She was still too young to be serious, yet she was much too mature to not try. I... I guess it was love... for her. It was to me." He knelt down, retrieving a few articles from his sleeves as he did so, and drew a few characters in the dirt. "When it attacked, no one was spared. Everyone who died was lucky. The next attacks were worse... by far." Katajii pulled his blade and summoned a small flame to light a stick of fragrance as he bowed his head for a second to say soemthing to himself. He then looked up and sniffled a bit, "Her eyes were so pure. Like... a cats eye gem. The sparkled like a star, they... made life... Life. ...When she died... he didnt kill her as fast as the others. He took her from me... we kissed and he stole her. He... he killed her, as she gave me a gift that was... everything I'd needed." The man looked down, his eyes cast on the small stone, worn through time and weather, to the size of his fist. He placed his palms on the earth beneath him, smiling as he scraped at the ground, flesh beginning to tear as he dug deeper. He lost track of time as he worked... and then... He found it. It was small... only the size of a sakura petal... but the wrought metal boasted a workmanship that none would ever best. The man smiled at the small silver ring, the sparkling gems lighting up in the night's eerie glow. "It was a promise, at first. We'd wait... and then run away. Marry eachother... live a long, happy life. We both hoped... wished... and dreamed, that it would happen sooner then It would have. But..." He caught himself and laughed a minute "I guess that's what I get for hoping."
Rising, the man bowed reverently and returned the pile of dirt to it's place. Looking about, he called outloud "Father, Mother, Friends... my love... I promise you, I shall die so that you are all welcomed into Nirvana! I will burn in your place... I... I will destroy the demon that did this... even if my soul must also die... even... if... I... must..." Katajii growled momentarily as he turned back to the woman, still petting the cat.
"If we are to go... then let us go. This place... is not my home anymore. It is nothing but... the graves of the dead. The ones who have honor. the ones I cannot join. Take me where you must, Winged One...And then you may do as you please... as long as I get to defeat my foe. Devour me if you desire. Feed me to the wolves. I care, no longer, for these memories that bring me into a void of sorrow and despair." He stood... waiting... uncertain of what was to come.
 
Angel looked down at the man almost boredly, even though something about his story set bells off in her mind.

" Enough mellow drama..." She growled, dropping from her perch. Angel strode right up to him, stopping a few inches from him.

" Just because you didn't die with them doesn't mean anything...They died for a reason...so honor them by living." Angel concluded, before turning and walking away from him. She pulled a small whistle from her collar, holding it to her lips. Angel blew into it, but no sound came from it.

" We will wait for a little while...I am too tired to fly anymore." She stated emotionlessly. The panther abruptly sat down where she was and folded her wings tight against her before curling up into a ball and allowing herself to rest. The kitten mewed and fit itself into the curve of her body, purring softly as it too fell asleep.

Angel breathed deeply, sleep taking her almost instantly. Obviously she was far more exaughsted then she had first thought. Faces flashed through her mind as she slept, but one remained, a demonic face that had for as long as she had lived haunted her dreams.
 
He watched her curl into a ball, a sickening feeling washing over him.
'Live so you can honor them?' He smiled a second before he turned and walked through a small collection of trees at the far corner of the main street.
"I died... you know." He told her, walking off into the darkness. Heck, he wasnt all sure of it himself... but he knows that no mortal could survive the wounds he had. He fought, and died... and was rejected. For some odd reason... he was not welcomed as the rest of his family was. All he know was that his fate was a mystery to him. He walked out into a small clearing, about ten square feet, where one lonesome tree stood. The branches were thicker... 'Aged to perfection,' he thought, but still... the same as before. He smiled a moment as he sat with his back to the tree, remembering how the spear felt as it twisted it's way into his chest, the blood gurgling up as he used his last effort to deal a blow to the Darkest One... He smiled as he died too.
"If it bleeds... it dies."
'That it does, master.'
"If it dies... I win."
'Rest... I'll wake you if you're endangered.'
"I want to sleep... but... I'm scared... again."
'It's alright. She's been watching you. I can feel her."
"Rho... my... sweet Rho..."
He prayed the night would bring him a dreamless slumber. But all he got was a blurred face... a hint of silver... and memories.
 
The earth rumbled beneath Angel's sleeping form, rousing the woman. She looked up and rubbed the sleep from her eyes.

" Oh! He's here!" She exclaimed as a familiar lizard like creature ran towards her. The large beast slowed to a hault beside her, Angel stroking it's side gently.

" Thankyou my friend. Oy! Human! Get over here!" She called, climbing up onto the lizard. The kitten scurried up to sit in front of her, Angel looking down at it in confusion.

" And where do you think you are going?" She asked in amusement. It mewed up at her, flashing her the classic " You know you wanna take me with you" look. She smiled and petted it gently.

" I should give you a name then..." She stated, scratching it's overly large ears. "Hmm...Ryat!" She beamed, earning a happy reply from the cat. Angel walked her mount forward a little way, the beast impatiant to be off.
 
He rose, almost as if he was a puppet. Looking about him, he pulled the blade free and cut the tree in half, as silent as the night was, it was almost inaudible.
"I will not fail." He spat, cursing to the demons that he knew were around. Wearily, the man ambled over towards the woman and her pets, looking at her in an exhausted stare, "I'll climb up in a sec... l... lemmie catch my breath..." He mused as he moved onto the reptile. "Kyo... follow." He commanded before he looked at her.
"If you dont mind... I... need to rest... please... dont take offense..." Katajii apologized as he rested his head on her winged shoulder. Oddly, it was pillowy soft, and smelled of heaven."I... promise... I wont... dr..drool..." He told her as he passed out, yet again. >.>
 
Angel looked back at him mutely a faint blush lining her cheeks. Her wings moved slightly to surround him and keep him in place. After all they would be moving quite fast and the last thing they needed was for him to fall off.

" Let's go..." She murmured to the lizard and it turned toward the center and galloped forward. Angel looked up at the stars that hung overhead, their gleam reflecting in her crimson orbs. What a strange turn this is. She glanced back at the sleeping man and couldn't help but smile. She wrapped her long tail about his waist to help keep him on the beast's back as it moved faster.

Angel kept her nocturnal gaze alert for any danger, travel by lizard would be slower then wings, but she didn't think she would be able to make it back, exspecially with the extra weight. With a soft sigh she held tight to the reigns and urged the creature on. Ryat curled up and dozed off as well, his tail curling around his small body.
 
OOC: Was the orb assignment directed to Ryu and Lini or Angel and Kataji? Wouldn't want to make a screw up that big...
 
(( Lini and Dragon boy, sorry for the lack of clarification
 
OOC: Okay. ^_~ This should be interesting...

IC:

Lini spun around as the higher deity adressed her, "Me-work with him?" she fumed at the thought "But-" Lini sighed in forfeit, somehow questioning Tsunami's judgement didn't seem like a worthwile enterprise. "Alright." contrary to her usual customs Lini gave a short bow, feeling that it was appropriate "How will we find our way there?"

Great... the girl thought, casting a sideward glance at Ryu We haven't even been introduced and we're already sent on a mission together... What was Tsunami thinking?
