Bode rubbed the toe of her boot into the ground. "Gaurdina Onyx is right, brother Moonstone. You were hurting him." She pouted. "You looked scary. And had really big read eyes."
"Red eyes? LikeFather's?" Tenderly, he inspected a bite mark on his arm. "I can recall being very angry. But...but I don't know why. Something triggered it." He hung his head, looking ashamed. "I'm really sorry, Onyx."

"That's alright. maybe next time you won't be teasing me about it."
A slight smirk.
"Besides, you know better than to tussle with me. I'm the brawler of the family, not you."

"Where would I have ever gotten the idea to tussle with anybody? I didn't even like fighting with you as a kit." He rubbed at his still soar forhead.
"Now look. I'm exaughsted. What if we get attacked?" He snorted. "You'd almost think someone wanted me dead."
"oh Darn. Would you look at that? I was so very close."
Tanundra paced back and forth on his cliff lefdge. Waht was taking so long? Oracle saud there would be an attack here, so he was here! But there did not seem to be any attack coimming at all! He was geting angry, frustrated, and worried.

Eliot groaned. She tried to lift her head but something was keeping it firmly stuck to the floor. When she realized it was her own, dried vomit she yanked her head up, smashing her brusied face into the bars and pulling out several white and blue hairs. Letting out a yelp she rubber her face
she couldn't get the memory of that awful thing out of her head. She felt liek it was goign to haunt her foreever. It had smelled so bad...
She looked around to find herself alone. What was she going to do? She needed to get out, get away from this man. She wanted to warn someone but she didn't know WHO to warn...
She sat rubbering her face for a time. She contemplated picking the lock on her cage until she realized ther was no lock. She had no idea how to get out of her little box. Feeling exposed and dirty she tucked her hair back into her hood, and her face cloak back up around her face, mercifully it had escaped behing drenched in to much vomit, only a few speckles here and there.
Eliot took a mental inentory. Her legs were pretty scraped up, her whole body felt tender from her thrashings. Most of all it was her throat that hurt, where that man had touched her. She shivered at the thought of him.
What was she going to do?

"The only person that wanted you even injured was me. and if someone else was doign it, then they obviously didn't do a very good job. picked the wrong feline to use like that."
Another smirk.
"well lets get inside, get cleaned up, and then we can get soemthign to eat and enjoy ourselves whiel you figre this out."
Onyx walked over, stuck his tongue out at emmie just becuase he coudl, and picked bode up, putting her back on his shoudlers and gliding off the roof and down back to the window.
"Andal. you claim you have five races of elf. I know three, the drow, the moon, and the woodland..what are the other two? And how have you managed to get all of them to get along, especially with the drow. adn the gold glimmer. I was told this has a unquie trait of catching light to make even a dark cave seem like noon. why don't you simply have darkvision or the like?"

"Cala'quessir and Ear'quessir, High Elves and Aquatic Elves. And get along isn't really the term. We more or less tolerate each other on the surface and well...we don't' associate with the drow and they hardly deal with the rest of us. Andal is mainly four large land masses and then a string of islands called the Tidal Pendant. The high, wood, moon and drow take the four, the sea take well...the seas." A pause then and a breath taken. "And the gold in a moon elf's eyes does indeed do that. We have the normal range of darkvision or infravision as any surface elf, we just have the ability to expand it in a sense." The a raised eyebrow and a look to Piper. "Why you been using it?"
"Once." Okay so they both knew she really shouldn't be doing it seeing as she didn't know how to do it so well, but point was she had needed to and she wasn't going to argue the point with him on it.Though then she had a question of her own. "You said you were out earlier, are you sure you didn't see anything? I mean, drow don't like to wait around to start something like this...I'm just saying it's been awful quiet."
"Nothing at all. I know, quite strange indeed."

Bode kept a careful eye on Moonstone as Onyx picked her up, and throughly enjoyed the flight down, "weeing" all the way.
Moonstone sighed. Onyx was right, whoever it was had chosen the wrong Vah. or had they? An explosive attitude was expected of Onyx, perhaps the...user...felt it would be more chaotic to fool with Moon? The idea was not pleasent, and he remebered to keep in mind the dd feelings that warned of this using.
Esmeralda and Moon followed Onyx shortly after, finding their way to the dining room

Morelle hadn't beena ble to find anybody in the area, it's like they had all disappeared. Not a single soul! He foudn his was back to the she wolf, as terrified as he was to do it.
Inside the door, he found his friend in a cage, but no creepy man. He squeezed through the bars, and nuzzled her. He had no idea what to do! He jumped in the girls lap, tried to comfort with his cute pressense. He'd help! He had to help!
Any ideas?

Eliot was glad to have her friend bac, his cute pressesnce was slightly comforting.
"I've been thinking, the bars on this cage are close together but if i were to be awolf, would i be able to squeeze through?" She wasn't sure if he could understand her in her human language, but she needed to get out.
She wasn't even sure she had enough strength left to even become the wolf...

Morelle looked strangly uncertain. Not because of her idea, the suggestions was as good as it could be. But...but he had a certain ability with souls.
As his mistress and her mate had whitnessed several times, he had the abilty to extract a soul form a body and contian it within himself, becomeing a vessal for it. The soul then had control of his body, unitl he felt righ to return said soul to the body. If they did this, the she wolf could talk through him, find someone she trusted to come and retreive her body, which would rest in statsis.
The mad man, since he seemed to love death so much, probably wouldn't even destroy the body, should she appear dead. He looke into her eyes. He couldn't possibly portay this in any way...he could only ask for her to trust him.

Eliot looked at the little creature in the eyes. He was far more intelectual then she had fisrt thought. Whatever he was thinking, it looked genuine. She felt it more than anything, that she could trust this little guy.
She put her and on his little back. "I trust you." She said the the fox-squirrel.

Morelle took a deep breath. Okay, here we go.
He open his eyes as wide as the would go, and stared into the she-wolf's. He caughter her gaze, and suddenly she could not turn away from him. Ethereal smoke began to rise from Eliots body. The more smoke, the more light left her eyes. Soon, a wolf had appeared, standing tlal and strong, amde of nothing but a black whisp. And suddenly, the mist as drwaing inot Morelle, like he had inhaled it.
And then his eyes turned grey, adn she was in control. Although he could offer his advice as he saw fit, and take back the control if he really felt he needed it. For now, they shared a body. Hey, good news! This also meant they could understand each other. The language of souls was universal, and Morelle knew how to speak to souls.

"WOW! what an amamzing feeling! it was bliss!" Through the eyes of the fox squirrel, whom she now knew was called Morelle, she oucl dsee her boddy, as it had been when she had passed out.
"This...is pretty cool." She stretched her little paws and shook out her (or should she say their?) tail. What an amazing little body, so agile. Nothing compared to her Wolf's body. All of her pain was going to, which made sense sinc eit was a physical pain she had been feeling.
"Time to get out of here, which way out?"

Morelle was amused. She was the first person to be so utterly happy about leaving her body behing. He helped her navigate the new body out the door.
Which way? Um...straight for a while, then head up some stairs. If you need help finding your way, just use my nose. Fresh airs is a clear marker for "that way!"
Eliot. That's a nice name. Oh dear, you had a rough life, didn't you? My mistress did to. Well, due to a demon stealing her memories in an attempt at revenge, well she doesn't remeber that life anymore. Now she's ahppy, with a mate and many children. Except she was sad when I left, because two of those children have gone missing, making her happy memories sad ones again. That's why I am here! I am loking for her lost kits.
All of this was passed in a single thught, too less than a second to pass on. She tripped up their leges, bashed their nose agianst the stone floor. All right, don't think about moving the feet, just walk and you'll be okay.

I would like to meat your mistress one day, adn her children. Two of them have gon emissing? well you are helping me to escape that creepy man, I will help you find them! its seems the slaves here are all gone but sooner or later i'm sure there will be mor here. But i thikn it would be wise that I stay out of the castle for a time. Yes I will help you, if you would care to have me for company.
She followed their nose, sometimes she hit dead ends, and other times she felt like she had been runnign forever. She was getting used to the legs at least. The joints were just so different. It felt wonderful to have such endurance though! she would never have been able to saty a wolf for so long.
Soon she was heading up passagesways that she recoginized, her own scent was there! And yes! There was Warren's. maybe she could find Warren and he would help! She didn't know if he would, but she coudln't think anyone else to go to.
Nearing the top levels The combination She-wolf and Fox Squierrle ran straight into someone's ankles.
