((Anouther friend yay! *eyes go stary*))
 
" Angel..." Tsunami stated. The girl looked over at him in surprise.

" Yes, MiLord?" She asked nervously, dropping to one knee.

" Go and find the one named Katajii and bring him here..." The god said, placing a hand gently on her head. Angel nodded sharply and rose to her feet. She looked at Lini warmly, patting her on the head.

" Take care little sister!" She beamed. Then the panther woman turned to Karnage. The goddess embraced her daughter lovingly, before backing away.

" Be careful my love...you will be going into the north..." She warned. Angel nodded and bowed to those present.

" I hope that MiLord Iros will send a good wind to my back." She stated, before walking outside. Her wings fanned out wide and she leapt into the air, flapping her wings. The wind rushed to lift her up and a joyful smile graced her lips. She could once again be free! The girl spun in mid air, laughing joyously before veering in Katajii's direction.
 
<< Woman! Must you always bite me? It stings a bit, ya know... I'mmana make sure to get you when i see you. A nice. Big. POKE. xD >>

He walked towards the sun. Three day's, he'd remembered, the sun was at his back. It was his second day of walking, and he passes the sacred tree his father's ancestors had planted. It still bloomed it's black sakura petals. Someone of his linieage must have been alive... but then he laughed to himself. He was. He could be the only one.
An entire village could have been slaughtered, as he lay asleep. This did not strike him as honrable.
"I'd rather have died by my family, Kyo. Then I would be feasting with them. Drinking sake. Eating my fill of rice, and those little cherries that I loved to much."
"Cluck!"
"... No. I know I am alive now. But... I let them die."
"Cluck Cluck!"
"You wonder why I call you a chicken somtimes..."
-PECK!-
"GRr..I could cook you, you know..."
The bird settled down, and lifting it's head, flew from Katajii's shoulder. He know what this meant... either he was close to the boundry, or the stupid chicken was hungry. Shaking his head, the young man went back to thinking. His village was a small one, not the size of the capitols or the towns, but for a village, they contained a strength that was unmatched. The worst of his village were the Emporer's best guards. No one dare'd attack them. What exactly was this evil he was to face.
*Snap*
The faint sound jolted him back to his senses, his hand steathly moved to his blade, the wind stirring about him.
"I am Katajii Honooku, of the Village of the Mikatsu-yo. You have three seconds to show yourself and convince me you've-"
An arrow was shot, he spotted it streaking past a tree to his left. Katajii focused and drew his blade, the folded steel cutting the arrow in half as a trail of flames burst forth from the tip. Whatever it was that attacked leapt from the shadows, it's massive form seeming feet taller then himself. It's snakelike tongue licked it's lips as it bowed it's head and drew a blade of it's own. The two stood still for a moment, before a small flick of Katajii's wrist and a gentle leap brought him a foot behind the beast. The sticky sound of blood and intestines oozing forth made Katajii smile, as he tapped his blade to the ground and said a small prayer as the blood was burnt off.
"Flames of Heaven, rid these enemies from my path."
The air was once again silent, his sparring match was over. Katajii looked to the sun as it set, sheathed his sword, and continued on for the day.
'Soon, Father, I will make it back to pray to our family. Then, I shall cleanse the land of the evil that claimed your souls.'
 
Angel flew onward, her wings had been weakened from the lack of use. She kept her senses alert, beastmen weren't exactly liked in this region. The boundary was ahead, and now she would have to be extra careful. Unfortunately there wasn't a cloud in the sky. The irritated woman alighted on a tree, folding her wings against her back. Just her luck. She would have to risk it, after all, Tsunami had been the one to order her.

" Curse the gods..." She growled, her claws digging into the branch. Suddenly several arrows whizzed by her, one skimming her forarm. The Dark Angel turned with a snarl, spotting a platoon of human soilders below.

" Shoot the sinner down!!" The leader shouted, earning a cry of triumph from the rest of the men. They fired again, Angel bloocking most with her Halberd and dodging the rest.

" Fools!" She snarled leaping to the ground. Angel swung her blades in a wide arch, a few unfortunate men being sliced in half, their blood staining the grass at their feet. The screams of the men alerted more, Angel's eyes narrowed, weighing her options. The Panther woman stabbed an attacker and parried another. She was being overwhelmed. Dark energy shot from her body, searing the fleash of anyone nearby. The woman then leapt into the air, and flew at full speed towards the border.

This was not her day. Sentries on the wall fired at her, Angel letting out a cry of pain as one arrow hit it's mark and embedded itself in her right wing. She flew on, ignoring the blood that was now dripping from the wound. The woman flew higher, spining out of the way of another volley. She finally managed to put somedistance between them and lowered herself to the ground. Angel collapsed onto her back, panting hard. They would catch up.
 
<<-poke- hehe.>>

He'd thought his day of fun was over, but he was too close to the border to fully understand what the yelling was about. Paying no mind to the shouting of the humans, Katajii crossed the border and walked along the path. That is when he saw them.
Black. Wings.
"You've got three seconds to show yourself friend or foe... and take heed... the last to cross me got less then that."
He didnt wantt o study this heap of a being in front of him, all he saw where the giant wings. He wondered if he would have to slay a creature of the sky, as he so hated to harm anything that could fly. Nevertheless, he took his stance, the blade making it's eerie ringing sound as it was loosed.
"Two."
 
Angel leapt to her feet in an instant, her Halberd appearing in her hands. She glared at the man before her, and bared her fangs. The wound in her wing was now bleeding freely, the arrow still sticking out from it in an ackward position. Her white hair had freed itself from it braid and flowed around her. Angel's ears laid back against her skull, dark energy radiating from her weakened body.

" You are a fool to think that I would lay down and allow a HUMAN to kill me!" She spat angrily. She was exausted but that wouldn't stop her from fighting to the death.
 
"You have yet to tell me if you are a friend or a foe. My name is Katajii Honooku, of the ancient Mikatsu-yo village. Are you a friend, or foe. You have one second."
He lowered his head, tensing his muscles and honing his mind. If he was to kill al lady, he would have to have the mindset before the fight.
After all, he was a man of honor, but he was also alive. Until his purpos was fullfilled, there was nothing he would let stop him.
 
Angel felt relief wash through her at the sound of his name.

" Oh thank the gods...I've been looking for you..." She breathed. The halberd in her hands shattered and she took a step forward. She felt a wave of nausea wash through her and she raised a clawed hand to her head. The woman had lost more blood then she thought. Her crimson eyes rolled back into her head and she fell, letting out a groan.

Sweet darkness rushed to take her into the land of lala. The sounds of men echoed toward them. Her persuers were getting closer...
 
[OOC: It seems I have missed quiet a bit. My apologies.]

Listening to Karnage's messenger, Ryu felt Serini gently urging him to relent to her orders. Turning, the Dragoon followed the others in silence. Once within the temple, he listened to the story wordlessly. Then that would explain why Serini brought me here . . .

Beneath his hood, one of Ryu's dark ears twitched as he heard Angel depart from the temple.
 
He heard them closing in, settling his blade into it's sheath he darted to the Winged One's side, catching her as she fell. He was surprised she wasnt heavier, but he payed no attention to what her weight was. They were here.
"Hand her over. She shall be exterminated like the filth she is..." one of the men declaired.
"This is my land." Katajii spoke threateningly, "All that falls in my territory belongs to me. All that is decreed to die, passes before me."
The men riled in laughter as each questioned his brash accusation. The leader of the group, a large man carrying a nigatana, stepped forward and hushed his men.
"This land, belongs to the Emporer. His ancestor ceased it after there was no one left of the ruined village at the foot of this hill. No one can survive out here with these things about."
"My village... belongs to me. Ruins or not. I shall claim it and all that belongs to me, in the name of Katajii Honooku! Step aside and let us pass, or i shall be forced to slay you all."
"Ha... The Honooku line has been dead for a century now. Ever living man and woman were slaughtered by her kind as they fought. There is no village. Just rubble, you pig brained twit."
Katajii gently set the woman down, standing with his back to the men, as he reached for his sword.
"I've had enough of this frivilous trite. You shall die now, punished for belittling the son of Oorumi and Ayeka Konooku."

There was little left of the group. The still unconscious woman lay at his feet, the sword glowing a bright red as the cyclone of flames it called forth diminished. Stabbing the blade into the ground, Katajii was forced to his knees coughing. The magic of the sword had taken his toll on him. He used his last remaining thoughts to seal the two in a barrier as he collapsed on the dirt, a rivulet of blood danging from his chin.
'Mental note moron... dont... do that... again... *cough*'
 
Angel stirred slightly, her eyes fluttering open.

" W-where?" She asked, trying to sit up. A throbbing pain in her wing caught her attention, the woman wincing. Angrily she grabbed it, snapping it in half. Discusted she threw the oblect to the ground, and pulled the other half from the other side of her wing.

" What the?" She yelped looking about. Angel looked down at the collapsed man and her eyes narrowed. What kind of party did I miss? She sniffed at him curiously, then looked him over for any serious injuries. Her head was pounding from lack of blood but she knew of a way to fix that little problem. The Beastwoman turned her preditory gaze on the remaining men, a low growl building in her chest.

Having gotten her second wind, she extended her claws, gripping the earth as her wings fanned out. Her tail flicked from side to side almost playfully, as every muscle in her body tensed. With a snarl she leapt through the barrier that Katajii had formed, landing on a startled man. He let out a scream of terror when her claws sank deeply into his flesh.

" I'll show you a monster!" She snarled. Blood stained her white outfit as she sank her fangs into the man's neck. He went limp in her grip, life draining from him. She dropped the man and wiped her mouth with a smirk. The other three men nearby backed away nervously as she advanced on them.

" Who else wants to play?" She asked, her voice holding a coldness that wasn't there before. With a roarlike cry she leapt at them. They turned to flee, only to find themselves unable. She grabbed one by the back of the neck, snapping it with a sharp twist. Her eyes glowed with blood lust, dark energy shooting forth to consume the remaining two. When their lifeless bodies fell to the ground she let out a soft mew like sound.

Her eyes returned to their normal crimson and her claws had also returned to normal. The beastwoman dropped to her knees and clutched at her head.

" I lost control again... " She murmured softly, her wings fanning out over her.
 
What's taking so long? Lini paced nervously around the temple, feeling rather dwarfed in the presence of three deities and the dragoon she had met earlier. The girl had only met Angel a moment ago, and yet the beastwoman was so nice to her, even calling her 'sister'. We couldn't be real sisters though... Lini though for herself, shaking her head at the though, She's practically a demi-godess while I'm just...well, Lini. One of the six or whatever, but... she sighed, wondering if she'd ever find her real family, and threw a glance about the room, wanting to see if the others shared her concern over Angel's absence.
 
'Wake up, pathetic human.'
'What the?'
'Oy, wake up... I brought you some rabbit.'
'Oh... you're back... done runnin away Kyo...?'
'Ha. Right. Whatever you wanna think Kata... '
'Heh...'
'That woman with the wings scares me. She's...'
"Oy..." He said softly, rising to his knees. The taste of blood was fresh in his mouth, his lungs burnt with a pain that made everything all to real. Looking about, he found his friend perched on a branch, and then turned his attention to the woman with the wings. "You seem familiar. I must continue to my village. Follow me if you must. But I will not deter from my path. Understood?"
He didnt give the woman a second glance as he pulled his sword and sheathed it. Calling to the falcon, he began to stumble down the path. It was worn, but he was glad that it was nearly identical to the one's he had once played on, over a century ago. He had to find out what decimated his home, soas to exact his revenge. He would not- could not- die until he took the head of whatever it was that did this.
"This path has been worn, Kyo. But the Sakura are still as beautiful as ever."
 
Raising a hand and finding a stone column to lean against, Ryu placed his back against it. Beneath his cloak, the Dragoon's tail swung gently--though its movements could not be seen. Hearing Lini pace and sensing her agitation, the warrior turned his unseeing eyes toward her. Though his features remained shadowed, his words were clear. "Stop pacing."
 
Angel glared in the direction of the human then stumbled to her feet. She walked after the human with an angry look plastered on her face. Since when did she take orders from a human? The panther woman growled a curse and trudged forward, her wings slowing her down. The injury in her wing still bled but she had too much pride to say anything. With a wince she followed after him, keeping her distance.
 
"Long ago, my village was a proud warrior village. Trained in the heat of the Magma swamp and steeled in the Lawn Gnome's twisted tunnels << xD >>, we were forged into warriors of the highest degree." He paused, allowing the winged one to come closer. He didnt know how to explain things to her. Times have changed... he was sure of it.
"My family was known to have special gifts. My father could turn the winds against his foes. My mother... drew the earth as she pleased." He laughed a moment before he coughed a bit and turned to look at her, "I... could understand the creatures of the wild. They... my Noble and Wise parents... the entire village... chose to save me. When I am nothing compaired to them. I must speak with them... to find out why my life was spared. That is my plan. My goal here, now, is to find their graves. If you truely wish for me to accompany you, then do this favor I ask." Katajii looked back towards the border. He was home. But he was never farther from it.
 
" What favor do you want of me?" She asked coldly, keeping her distance. The Dark Angel did not truely trust humans, of course she didn't trust anyone. The panther followed him, her eyes darting about for trouble. She used her Halberd as a crutch without making it obvious.

(( -_-;; shortness))
 
He sighed a moment before turning to her again and, slowly, raised his finger to the sky.
"You know..."
-Poke-
"You come with me to... see what's left of everything i've ever cared for an known... and then I'll go with you wherever you want." He spoke to her, choking on the blood and tears that strived to wash him away.
 
"Fine!" Lini snapped "Angel has dissapeared to gods know where but you consider my pacing a bigger issue?!" , she took unfair advantage of the dragoon's blindness by showing him a particularly rude handsign, until she recalled the divine presence in the room and quickly changed her fingers to a neutral state. Guess that about answers my question... she thought, glaring at the dragoon. A good bit of anger was now building inside her and she decided to taunt Ryu by tapping her foot against the stone floor instead. Bloody ingrate... she thought Let's see if I help you the next time you're in trouble...
 
Angel fought the urge to hug the human, her compassionate side surging forth uncontrollabley. She bowed deeply, wincing in pain.

" Very well..." She stated. The Panther tore the bottom of her shirt and wiped the blood from his face gently. She felt that she knew this man somehow. Then she realized what she was doing and blushed deeply.

" Allow me to heal, I need my strength back." She stated. The panther crouched on the ground and flexed her wings, Dark energy carressed her body, slowly closing her wounds. Karnage's energy flowed through her, replinishing what she had lost.
