DD got the hint and disappeared from Twilight's shoulder and reappeared in her second form by the door. "I would say 3 to 5 days max before that could happen my lady Queen. But ummm... oh..never mind... it isn't of importance. I am gonna play with my new pet in the arena...Something actually quite like netas there. Happened when one of them were hit with my bullets." She said as she left the throne room by conventional means.... walking.
She arrived at the arena.. that girlie boy was just being finished by the giant cat/lizard thingy. It stopped and regarded her as it slurped down the rest of it's victim. Getting up it paced and stalked around DD, who just stared it down with her odd eyes, showing now fear.
It wasn't long before it jumped to attack her. What it got was a shadow replica as she reappeared on it's back latching a collar around it's neck. Startled it tried to twist to dislodge her. But nothing worked, as she spoke soothingly too it. "You my pet need to settle down... Let me into your mind." was all she said as it whipped it's head around to bite her. that was it's mistake as it's eyes caught hers, it was held in a trance as she picked it's brain apart. "Appocalypse huh? Strange choice in names and you a boy... Netas would like you." she said in a soft purring voice as the creature settled and stopped.

Xavier didn't really know what was going on, and at this point in time it had little importance to him for he had seen the open door. He moved away from the rest of the group, silently drifting to Sionet's side. When he saw what condition she was in he slowly reached out to gently run his warm fingers through her hair, shutting his eyes as he did so. He crouched down to lightly bury his face into the thick curls of her hair, one of his hands gently resting on the back of her head while the other reached out clamp onto the edge of the bed Sionet was on. He was angered and distraught; apparently seeing Sionet in such a poor condition had more of an effect on Xavier than most would have realized.
---
Netas watched DD go, turning her head to look at Twilight. She morphed back into her original form, lightly resting her chin on the armrest of Twilight's thrown as she stared up at her. She understood what she was supposed to do, but she had to wait until Dusk was ready to strike. Then she would make her move, wreaking havoc upon everyone, just the sort of thing she was created to do.

With a nod of their heads, they were all gone leaving Eda Uru and Solartic there, when they noticed that Xavier had disappeared. It didn't take much to put two and two together. They both drifted into the room and saw the scene before them. Eda Uru took in a small gasp of air at what he saw on the bed. Sionet laying there bandaged all over. Her eyes still wide open and unseeing. The color of those warm eyes had become dull and gray, and exceedingly blank.
with a cough to get their attentions, solartic spoke. "I know it is unprovential but you both are granted the right to sleep in the anti-chamber tonight.. incase something happens or she awakes. It would fall to me and Lunaris, but plans have changed and we have to retrieve the young man shade for ritual. So we wont be around much tonight or tomorrow. I just fear the worst is gonna happen in the coming weeks if she is being so bold as to kill a god." He said as he left the room.
******
Sionet opened her mental eyes, she was floating in a cold blackness. She opened her mouth to speak and air bubbles escaped her. Quickly she covered her mouth, only to hear a gurgling voice berate her, "OH give over child you know you can breath in my realm. And as for what I said earlier quite taking it to heart. I was referring to your stupidity in judgement. Not that you yourself is completely useless. Actually you have grown more then I would of ever given you credit for." that strange gurgling voice said coming from everywhere.
Shaking her head she removed her hands from her mouth as she spoke. "No I am useless.. I hate these gifts or powers that are given to me. They grow on their own, and I am forced to keep realizing they are there. and made to contineously learn to control them better." she said her own voice full of self loathing.
A cold icy laugh followed her when she finished. "Ahh but you have been given them, and your tainted.. that just makes you strive harder to survive and master them though. It is nature. But don't forget girl you owe me a price for when you first called me. And a message from my sister, air head that she is, that she was happy wiht your growth and surprised you called all four of us and held us there before you blacked out." It said again.
A small bit of shock washed through her. "Oh umm thank you I guess to the lady Sien then Lady Agluim" Sionet replied to that. A tut-tuting could be heard. "well as long as you don't let it go to your head, it is fine with me. And thank you for using hte old language not many learn it any more." that gurgling voice took on a warm note. "it is respect that is due to all your kind. And I know you feel the pain of loss right now... he has gone hasn't he?" Sionet asked. She felt a pat on her head.
Eda Uru and Xavier could see her eye lids slowly come down and shutter, and a small smile spread across her patched and bandaged face. As she finally slipped into a peaceful sleep.

Xavier payed no attention to Eda Uru or Solartic, but he did notice the change in Sionet's features. Even so, this did little to comfort him; he still felt pain, even as the peaceful look and smile came across her face. He had no way of helping her wounds, no real way to speak to her unless she happened to hear him when he spoke aloud. "Sionet.." he murmured near her ear, much too quiet for anyone else to hear. "Please be well, dear one..please be well..." Xavier let his head rest beside hers, being very careful so that he did not hurt her.

Solartic left the room to be with his sister, knowing that she would leave in a few minutes to snatch up shade. He left the two boys alone with Sionet. Knowing she'd be alright as the bandage on her forehead disappeared revealing smooth skin.
******
Eda left the room shortly after, jealousy was a ugly thing something he wasn't used to. but he would give that man a bit of privacy with her. A smile on his face as he walked over n pulled that rope once again. Revealing three huge platters of rare cooked meat, adn a small tray of seafood stew for him. As well as several huge pitchers of light ale. "Xavier you must come and eat, then you can go back to her. She is healing rapidly due to the restoration spell on the bed." he said loud enough for him to hear clearly.
******
When Solartic walked into the joint room he saw Lunaris in her true form. She wore a skin tight shirt plated lightly across the shoulders back and stomach. It had a huge cut in the front to reveal a nice cleavage shot. Around her waist was a slitted battle skirt. A smile crossed his face, though sad. It had been well over 3 centuries since he had last seen her in her actual outfit. Unlike Sphynix who was young an wore it almost all the time.
Placing the black walnut box on the vanity he looked at her with pride. "You ready to fetch the young man?" he asked her. She just nodded and pointed to the clouded glass and the battle that was going on there. A malicous smile crossing her face.
She had seen that general before, and had an inkling that he took darks life. But wasn't for sure till she could get closer to him. "I will be heading out now." She said as she strapped on a wicked pair of spiked fighting gaunlets. Clanging them together in readiness before she misted and was gone. Finally alone Solartic sat on his bed and cried in peace, for all those he had lost to that demon witch.. including his own wife, who was visiting the Anara clan when she had struck. He never knew if she was alive or dead even now.

Shade264 Location: Gatha Shade waits till the last minute before rolling with the thrust. It appears as if Osiris hit nothing but smoke. As the strike carries him past Shade returns to his position as if he never moved at all, Osiris on the opposite side. "Nice move." He holds up his arm to show the marks in the coat made by Osiris claws. The skin beneath is untouched "You missed, by the way." Osiris looked at Shade like he was stupid. "Well, duh! If I'd hit, then we wouldn't be talking right now. I'm fairly certain that even one as powerful as you can't stay standing after a huge dose of this poison I've got." He held up his claws and a clear drop of liquid fell from the tip. "Potent stuff, this," Osiris said.

((more poison?))
Shade smiles. "Your probably right, though I don't have to be conscious in order to speak. But as with most things in order to be effective, it does have to hit."

(( question i've used poison before?))
Osiris sighed. "I know. But don't worry, you won't be able to dodge me forever. And when I hit you, you're coming back with me." He vanished and appeared behind Shade, lunging at his back with his claws.

Xavier made a bit of a sound in the back of his throat, showing that he wasn't going to eat. He lightly shut his eyes again, listening to Sionet's breathing and her heartbeat as she slept. He was glad that she was recovering so quickly, but even so he was still upset about the day's event. "I am in no mood for food.." he said, his voice low and soft so that he did not wake Sionet. He lifted one of his dark-skinned hands to slowly stroke some hair away from her face, closely studying where the bandage had been on her forhead.
---
As Osiris leaped at Shade, Hope acted on instinct and swung at him with a tree branch she had found on the ground. Her eyes were wide with fear and her body was trembling; she had no idea how to fight, but she didn't want to watch as this man attack her dearest friend.

Osiris slashed through the tree branch effortlessly, not slowing at all as he flew at Shade. "Silly girl," he smirked. "I think you're next."

((no, but it has come quite a bit.))
Location: Gatha
Once again waiting until the last minute,Shade crouches under the claws grabbing Osiris wrists in the process. Using Osiris's momentum, he adds to it by performing a forward roll, tossing him away and returning to his feet. There are now more holes in his coat, this time on the shoulder blades.
"Getting closer, but you can't hit me with speed alone."

Hope's eyes widened even further as she stared with numb fear at the sliced branch she held, her face turning a deathly pale color. Hope quickly dropped it and looked around desprately for something she could use to help Shade.

Osiris rolled easily to his feet. "Damn you. I'll get you soon." He threw a glare over at the girl. "I advise you to stand down, little one. This could get ugly."

A younger version of Lunaris appeared in the clearing watching the scene before her. Crossing her arms under chest as she leveled a stare at Osiris. "If your done having fun for today, I need that young man your fighting. Since you have already got what you wanted." She said in a cold hollow voice. The whole time she spoke though blades of wind wrapped around Osiris easily picking him like a rag doll.
Not even looking at the girl holding the stick she spoke again a little softer. "and you missy need to put that down and get out of the way, your in no condition to fight. Even if Sionet just healed you." Though her icy glare still pinned on Osiris, she had already seen the head of Dark. She barely contained her rage and composer.
******
Feeling a warm hand stroking her face, Sionet instinctively turned towards it. She fluttered her eyes opened a little, the soft smile still there. Smelling the food, she looked at Xavier. "Go eat... please for me. I wont move... I promise." she said in a weak voice. Though it was still a gentle command. Her eyes closing again she went back to sleep.

Hope gave a wide-eyed look at the woman before creeping back behind Shade, quickly looking him over to see if he had any injuries. "A-are you alright?" she asked, obviously worried.
---
Xavier smiled a little when Sionet turned her head into his touch, moving his hand to softly cup her cheek. "Shh, do not worry, I ate plenty earlier..now rest." he said, his voice a gentle purr as she fell back asleep.
