Lyra watched the byplay between the two with interest, and the show of affection from the male to the female was an oddity, at least to her. She had never seen anything come from a male that wasn't harmful, but the girl didn't seem to mind his touch. And well, she couldn't say never any longer, her rescuer had yet to hurt her as well. She supposed that was why she didn't trust him, she kept waiting for the bad part and so far there wasn't one. She had trouble keeping her surprise out of her gaze, for the man had actually seemed worried for the womans safety. Of course that was laughable, from her the girl was in no danger...so long as she didn't get hurt anyway. Once she got hurt too badly she wasn't sure what happened but no one seemed safe from that. Sighing, she absently played with a lock of her long black hair. She froze though as the man came toward her, dragging the woman along behind him. And while she stood her ground for a few moments, she backed up when the distance between them had dropped about halfway. She hesitated, once again cursing the curiosity that kept her from outright running, even though her gut told her she should.

Dani followed Dazramus, if only to go see what the woman was all about. She really wanted to explore that old castle, and if this was how she got to, she didn't mind.
Daz was intent on finding out if the vampire had hurt this woman any. He'd met many vampires who fed upon young women or half turned them just because they were pretty. Half turning some people made go crazy and harm others or themselves. He didn't think that was the case here. He kept his pace slower than usual, partly so Dani could keep up and partly so he wouldn't scare the other female into running. He really didn't feel up to a chase and had the feeling that Dani wouldn't forgive him if he scared someone. When he got close enough to be heard, he paused, letting go of Dani's hand. It was, however a mistake to let go of Dani and he sighed as she moved forward.
Dani lifted her hand, waving it as if to shoo off bad thought from the air..
"If we promise not to hurt you, will you stay and talk to me?" she asked. He voice sounded childish, even to her own ears. But she longed to talk to someone other than Daz. Ha was great, but she was tired of him not talking to her. A few feet from the woman, Dani stopped, waiting for the girl to respond.

Lyra frowned as she heard the other woman speak, her voice sounded young...younger than she was definitely. Sighing, she tilted her head to one side and considered carefully. Speaking with them couldn't hurt could it...so long as there was some distance between them she should be alright. Lifting her face to the wind, she let the breeze calm her, though she never took her eyes off the strangers in front of her.
"If you promise to stay over there and not come any closer I guess that would be alright." she answered, softly, letting the grass of the plains and the wind carry her voice...she knew it would...for some reason it always did.
"Why would you want to speak with me?" she asked curiously, no one had ever really asked to talk to her before. It was a strange and new feeling all the way around. Even though she still felt like she should run, she was slightly more relaxed...at least they hadn't made any move to hurt her...yet.

Luxord walked and wlaked for hours and now passing from the plains of dirt and rock to the tall swaying grass and gentle soothing wind, he thought he had finally survived. His sword became heavy, his injuries screamed out of pain, his head became weightless and his eyes completely slammed shut. Next thing anyone knows he falls into the grass flat.

Dani smiled brightly. She'd been hoping for the chance to talk. Now she could ask about the castle and who lived there. She figured she should take it a bit slow first though.
"Maybe I'm just curious by nature?' she asked then laughed. "I'm Danielle. This is my friend, Dazramus." She pointed over her shoulder to where Daz was looking on in distrust. "Don't worry, he always looks like that, but he won't hurt you. He's more like a big teddy bear." Still smiling, she looked past the girl at the castle for a moment. "What's your name?"
Daz listened to the conversation in silence, but his attention was soon caught when the scent of blood drifted to him on the wind. Turning his head, he listened carefully. When he heard nothing, he shifted his other senses outward from his body. His hearing became more tuned in, his sense of smell keen. He could smell more blood now. Through careful listening, he distinguished the sound of a faint heartbeat, picking it out from all of the closer strong ones. Who or what ever was hurt, it wasn't too far. He was almost positive he could find it without leaving Dani alone for too long. This was what he did, slipping off through the tall waves of amber colored grass.
He stumbled upon the body almost half a mile from where Dani was standing. Keeping his distance, he drew his sword and pressed it along his side. It would be partially concealed this way, just in case. He shifted, reaching out and nudging the body with the toe of his boot.

Lyra looked over the girl in surprise and had to smile at how easily she laughed. When she introduced the man Lyra looked beyond her and studied him for a long moment. Shaking her head, she let a small laugh escape and returned her attention to the girl. A big teddy bear indeed...that was a laughable thought.
"My name is Lyra...I think your friend has left you." she answered quietly.

Dani turned. Indeed Daz had left her. She wondered briefly as to why, then shrugged. If he was going to run off, at least he'd picked a time when she had someone else to talk to. Turning back to the girl, she smiled again.
"Do you live there in that castle?" she asked, motioning with a finger toward the huge, looming structure.

As Luxortd laid there in the grass unconcious he began to dream fop the events that had happened before landing on the plains of Demoria. His brothers sword at the ready soopn started shooting off like a mad man. Lux began blocking it and dodging it for life. Then a surprise attack from under sin's wing slicing into Luxord's side. Then Sin getting a slash down his chest.Soon Luxord felt a poke on his side where the pain was coming from. He opened up his eyes and let his fangs show and he screamed into the sky out of pain, then he laid on the ground trying to relax and he looked over at a strange new person.

Daz stepped backward a couple of feet to give the male room. His long, pale locks swung slightly with the movement. His face became a mask of no emotion as he stared down at the man. He recognized the man to be a vampire. His first thought was that this vampire might be the same as the one that he'd seen to many days ago. Though the face was wrong. Too wrong. Now the only questions were, who was this vampire and why was he here? Daz sighed softly. His gaze lifted for a moment as he checked to make sure Dani was alright. He returned his gaze to the vampire then, dropping into a crouch.
"Who cut you up?" he asked. The question was a simple one and had been asked in a emotionless tone. Hopefully the answer would be as simple.

Gemara twirled in place, delighting in the feel of grass on her body. She had to admit that it was a bit unsettling to stand on her tiptoes to see, but she was having fun with the sensation anyway. She stopped, giggling a little. She had found no signs of anyone around and another giggle slipped past her lips. She had a plan. Singing softly under her breath, she stepped out a large mythic symbol in the grass. You could not see it from the grass, but it would very visible from the air. "If anyone here could fly, which I doubt" she thought. "Oh well, it was still fun". Turning away from the symbol, she headed for the castle in the distance, finally levitating somewhat to improve her vision. After a short time she froze in the grass, hearing voices in the distance.

"My brother is the one who has done this." He stared into the eyes of stranger and tried to remember what had happened last. He tried to sit up but the pain was worse than before. He grabbed his side and just laid back down and stared at the stars. "I remember fighting against my brother, i had hurt him and he in turn also hurt me. then i landed in the middle of the plains and now i ended up in the grasslands of the plains. After that i had gone blank. Who are you?"

Daz allowed his gaze to pass over the man for a moment, then sheathed the blade he had out. It didn't seem as though he would need it. Bracing his elbow upon his knees, he balanced in the crouched position and regarded the man with pale eyes.
"Do you need healing or can you heal yourself?" he asked, carefully avoiding the man's question of Daz's name. If the man could heal himself, then Daz would leave him be. If not, then Dani could heal him.

Luxord coughed and soon started to nod off but had enough energy to keep talking. "I think i need help... i have never had wounds this had. I'm honestly lucky heheheheh" Coughs again trying to stay awake. "He could have gotten my heart and ended it... but he only got close." He cough up blood onto the stranger's face by accident and soon nodded completely off, being unconcious.

Daz grew distant upon receiving Dani's mind call. His response was to call her to him. He couldn't heal these wounds by himself and didn't dare try. Healing magic hurt him for some reason. He could self heal, but if others tried to heal him they always ended up making it worse. Only Dani was able to heal his wounds thus far without hurting him. He lifted his hand to his face, wiping the blood from there. Lifting the man could cause further injuries. Some things just didn't leave room for winning. This was one of those things. He settled with levitation. It was safe. He wouldn't have to touch the man at all if he did it this way. In his mind Dani confirmed the plan for her to go with a female named Lyra. Daz figured this was the same female he'd seen earlier and gave the okay for that. He canceled the request for her to come to him, instead, telling her that he'd see her soon.
His mind focused, gathering the energy required. The body of the man lifted slowly, as if it were being pulled up by strings. Daz then turned toward the castle where Dani was waiting and began to move the body of the man in that direction, following behind to make sure nothing happened to him.
