Justin looked at Ray "why don't you get some sleep". He pulled off his jacket and gave it to Ray. "Tomorrow will be here soon, and something tells me we are going to need some sleep" he said calmly, and noticed Wrath was being quite though all of this, but he like it that way. He leaned back, and looked up at the stars, and moon with a smile on his face.

Ray pouted a little, but took Justin's jacket. She laid down next to him, placing her hand on his chest, her eyes sliding close. Sleep always brought the worse dreams. The dreams of running away from an unknown person, of her mother's death, of the time she died and of the man with the grin. He haunted every dream, no matter the dream. His darkened features, the grin like the cat from Alice in wonderland, his blade glittering in the dark night that was her dream. Ray hated to sleep, but her body needed it to keep her energy up. Slowly she relaxed and was soon asleep against Justin, her breath coming out in small puffs and her hand laying limply on Justin's chest.

Justin welcomed her touch and smiled. He could sensed many battles will be fought, and so many will die. He hated the ideal of fighting, but he would do anything to protect his new family. He would never stop fighting until he knew Ray was safe. Justin slowly drifted off to sleep, and a feeling of peace washed over him

Ray didn't dream, at first. Having another to sleep with had calmed her mind. Justin had calmed Ray's world, though soon there lives would become much harder.
As the wind picked up a little, a loose feather caught on the wind. The wind whisked it off towards the far end of the forest. It flitted about before it was taking out to the farthest edge of town, landing at a foot of a shadowed man. He reached down and picked it up, examining the feather. A large grin coming to it's face. "heh, i've found you little tengu....."

Justin felt something in the air, a darkness that he could not explain. He slowly drifted off to sleep in Ray's arms. In his dream he saw a pair of blood red eyes, and a toothy grin, and In front of this smile of teeth was Ray, covered in her own blood. Justin was mortified and could not bring himself to attack the man. The person that stood in the shadows stepped into the light and Justin became sick, for the person who had killed Ray was himself. He bolted awake, and looked at Ray to make sure it was just a bad dream. He hoped that his sudden movement did not wake her. Justin turned his head towards the sky, the moon had began to receded for the night, and a sliver of light pierced the sky.

The sudden movement hadn't disturbed Ray, but her fingers look twitched a little. She was to far in a dream to really notice anything outside it.
Ray stood in a clearing somewhere in the forest. This was a new dream, she had never been here before. She cautiously stepped forward, the noises of the forest the same as always. She wander a little bit farther seeing nothing wrong. She felt arms encircle her, she looked at them thinking it was Justin. There was something wrong with the arms, they tighten painfully hard, pinning Ray's arms to her side. A voice said something....It made her sick to her stomach what it said. She couldn't move or get way as the voice seemed to get more vulgar and and excited at her struggles.
Ray's hand that was twitching, started to try and grip anything, her face scrunching up at an unseen force.

Justin noticed Ray's fingers twitched, and at first thought she was starting to wake back up. When she seemed to panic he took hold of her "Ray wake up, wake up, its just a dream". He hoped it was a dream, what if what he had seen was the future, no he would never let that happen. "Please wake up Ray" he yelled and held her tight, with tears running down from his eyes.

The world around her seemed to die, but that's not what worried her it was the voice. It was familiar....'I've got you now, tengu.' Ray threw her wings out pushing the thing away and slashing at it's face. Ray fell to the ground, she was eight again. It was a part of the memory, that her brain forced her to forget. The man looked at Ray with hate and excitement as he held his face. The dark, cold blue eyes staring at her. 'Your a tough one aren't you?' The smile split his face as he reached for Ray. Fear had her held in place, but someone kicked his hand away. "Ray wake up, wake up, its just a dream....Please wake up Ray!" It was her mom's voice and someone else....
Ray's hand tensed as her eyes shot open and she took a deep breath in. Her body was shaking as she looked around unsure of what just happened; she noticed a light in the sky but ignored it, she felt Justin holding her close and crying. Why was he crying? She placed her hand on his face. "Hey.....No crying, it makes you look like a wuss." Her voice shook, the dream still in her mind. She pushed out to see his face a weak smile on her face.

Justin let out a small laugh "its better then not crying". He smiled at the sight of her face "are you ok, your body was shaking real bad". He took his left hand and wiped the tears from his eyes "I have this feeling something is coming, and its not going to be good". He held her tight again, even if he had only known her for one night, it felt like a life time, and Justin did not want to see her hurt.

"I guess so....yeah i'm okay...." Ray was struggling with trying to explain what happened, the sound of the man's voice still ringing in her ears. "i...i.... i have dreams....about the past.......and i think i just.....remembered something that happened.......is al..l....all." Ray's voice was cracking as she spoke, a tear ran down her face. Ray looked Justin in the eyes, her blue ones looking clouded as she nodded. "I feel it too....." She returned the hug, to her he was like a very close family member and she felt that she would have to do everything to keep him by her side, no matter the cost.

Justin wanted that monument never to end, but slowly the sun started to rise. "Well do you think we should get Graves up" he asked standing up, he hoped the tree could take a little bit more abuse before falling over. Justin held out his hand to Ray, and tried to forget his dream. When he saw Ray's face, the image in his dream raced across his vision, but he knew to keep it to himself. "So how about he get Mr. sleepy up and cook some thing to eat" he said with his stomach aching, he only had that one fish in two days, and could eat a horse.

Ray watched as the sun rose, It was like this ever night. Her Tengu side always woke her just before sunrise every day. There was one thing though it had been Justin who had done it. What was the meaning of her dream, was it a warning or had something blown into town with the wind? Ray pushed this away for the time being. "Yeah, let's get his lazy a** up. It already two minutes after sun up and he still asleep." She followed him and took his hand. "I don't think i could eat anything, but i'm sure Graves will happily cook something." Ray held her stomach with one arm. She was still feeling ill after the dream, she couldn't remember what he said. Only whatever he said was horribly repulsive, that it was still affecting Ray in the real world.

Justin looked at Ray, and leaned down to grasp her legs. He picked her up "sorry quickest way down" he said laughing as he jumped down from the tree with her in tow. He landed hard, but his legs where used to it, so he was able to brush it off easily. He smiled at Ray and put her down "ok you get Graves up and I will go hunt us something to eat". He turned towards the forest and started to walk off "hope your in the mood for dear" he called back with a laugh. He did not really hunt, but there was a strange sent in the woods this morning and he wanted to know what it was.

Ray wasn't expecting him to pick her up, so in response she had squeaked. She wasn't use to being picked up, since her real form was much heavier then this human form. Feeling thud of the ground, she flinched, but smiled back at Justin. She grabbed the tree next to them, remembering that her shoes were back up in the tree. Ray would get them later. "Alright, just be careful." She called after him and heard what he said. Ray was uneasy, that dream spoke of bad things to come and how Justin had acted before was more troubling. She walked; more like clung to everything, over to where Graves was asleep. "Jak.....I had a nightmare." She had crouched down over the grave.
Graves' eyes shot open at the sound of his sisters voice. "Well, that's not good." he said groggily, slowly sitting up. His joints protesting the movement as he started to brush off the dirt. "why don't you tell me about it." Graves said very sympathetically, he knew about her dreams, but nightmares meant it was worse than the other dreams. He looked around before looking back at Ray. "But before that where's your boy?"
Ray blushed. "He went to go get food, out in the forest. He'll be back in a few minutes." She sat down on the edge of the grave to tell Graves the story.

Justin sat in the bushes waiting, and thinking. Wrath had been so quite lately, he started to wounder why, but before he could think more a large doe walked up ten feet from his current position. He hunched his back, and got ready to pounce. In a flash he had his teeth on the doe's neck. His sharpened fox teeth crushed the deer's neck, killing it instantly. Justin smiled "this should do everyone for a awhile" he picked up the body with one hand and started to carry it back towards the campsite. He loved to hunt this way, he would never use a blade to kill, maybe hurt, but never kill. He had almost forgotten that when he had faced the wolf child before, but now he had regained his composure. He walked into sight of the small campsite and set the deer down near the fire pit "so who wants a leg" he asked half jokingly
