Welcome to Gaia! ::

Herne shrugged, "I have told you who I am after. Im ight be abe to use her body for some projects of mine, but it is not overly important to me. Seems a shame to waste such a body and power, though. Perhaps...well, if you want to kill her, I won't stand in your way."

Herne shrugged, "Oh this and that. Use to make some more hounds and the like, nothing I can't get without her. Of course, I could make her into one of my hunters. She woudl certianyl be a ncie addition. All it really requires is the removal of the soul and then it's just a matter of animating the body."

Morrigan was thankful the two Saiya-jins ended up forming a chain with Vincent; it certainly helped things. She focused deeply and closed her eyes, and they were all gone.

They reappeared at her hideout, the sun warm and the air fresh around them. She didn't say anything before she was gone again; Vincent shook his head.
"I didn't do ANYTHING to you," he told him aggressively, "I just woke your ungrateful a** up after you were drugged! Now where did she go now??"

She was back. Ashuri was still there, and contrary to Herne's thoughts, she HAD been aware of the Unseelie court's involvement in matters, and worried accordingly. She wouldn't leave until everyone in danger was brought home. It was her gut instinct, and morals. She couldn't deny it.
She crept through the secret passage ways, up the wall and peering out the same hole she and Imogene had been before. The dogs weren't so bad, but Ashuri was in danger. Now, what was the best solution to this???
To further complicate things, it soon became obvious that the Saiya-jin woman was poisoned. She still had a few of the undead/dog repellant sachets tied to her person, which usually was decent at keeping them at bay. She had an uneasy feeling this time.
Naga was quiet but watchful, eyes drifting around the complex. A guard came running in, alerting him and the others that the prisoners were freed--- he did not look happy. On the bright side, the search crew was already sent out. He didn't have to say anything.
Morrigan resisted the urge to smile.
Naga kept a perimeter of the ceiling and room, as if searching for something; Konton knew his thoughts without effort. He was suspicious.

**I wouldn't say attack so much,** Naga thought in reply, **More like a rescue-and-run. First Po-ar, then an entire room full of prisoners.... I'm sure you see where I'm going with this, plus, I can't shake that feeling that we're being watched. If she's here... We need to strike her unconscious so she doesn't switch between worlds.** he finished.

And indeed they were. Morrigan hadn't moved or made a sound, crouched like a tigress and ready to either attack with wind and water----while she was weak with water, she had enough to send icicles soaring at the three---or more likely, retreat.


Vincent shook his head. "That's where Morrigan went now, I'm guessing," he sighed, "But we're in the same realm. I'm sure she had weapons and armor and that here, and there's a stable down the way, so we'll call one of the groundskeepers and head to where Naga hides out. We don't have much other choice, unless you can get back faster."

"You misunderstand me," Naga spoke quietly, "I'm anticipating."

Morrigan winced. She was took late, she hadn't acted fast enough-----this definitely complicated things. How would she get that off of Konton, without getting caught??

Herne was a little surpsied at Konton's...pouch, but he smiled, "Indeed it is. One that I find quite useful to me. Hunting soul's is one of my favourite activities. How else could I aquire such faithful hunters?"

Herne grinned cruely, "Oh this and that. Torment them emotionally. Use themto aid me. Actually, it is thanks to one of the souls I captured that I know everything I do about the twins. I promised freedom to a youth's soul I had had for years, in exchange for the death of a girl who was their friend at the time. The souls can still wander about if I allow it, and occasionalyl communicate to a few gifted people, but they are forever bound to me. The offer of freedom and a body of their own- you have no idea how tempting it is for half of them. There's a good deal more to it than that, it's actually quite a tale. The important part is that I got what I really wanted and that was a wealth of information on those two. "
