A small breeze blew over and Seshuyin was sitting next to Skog. "D*mn, must you yell so loud?" Seshuyin said, picking his ear unenthusiastically. "What do you want? Death? A final resting place? An eternal sleep? To be cremated?" He asked, with all questions death questions.

Skog laughed at Seshuyin's suggestions, "I'd like death, but not for me. I have a favor to ask of you. Will you help me destroy the human city that nears my forest?" His eyes dimmed slightly, as if a dark cloud had passed over them. "I fear I may die soon," He confessed, looking down at the ground instead of straight into Seshuyin's face.

Seshuyin finished picking his ear with his pinky and wiped it on Skog, "So, death by humans. What do you want? Volcanoes, earthquakes, massive storms, floods, tsunamis, blizzards, the works?" He asked, still showing no enthusiasm but a little more than before.

"Hmm," Skog pondered; this was a serious decision, so he couldn't mess it up. "Fire."

((Next time guys, if you wanna time skip a pm to me would be nice because you confused EVERYONE in the thread as to what their characters were doing))
Nyma awoke as she seemed to vanish again and appear within the forest spoken about by Skog. She seemed to be the only one that can possibly save it. Her powers were highly active as she appeared to hug one of the trees. “Healing, light, water, and wind please guide my powers. I know I have no right to ask this of you oh powerful elements. But save this forest…revitalize and save it…” Nyma would drop to the ground of the forest as she seemed to absorb two feathers into her body. Both were the feathers of earth. Her body had acknowledged her will to save the planet and earth heard her plea.
They knew it had to be done to prevent so much death from happening. She knew the cycle of war was about to begin again and from it her death was certain. She’d remain there on the ground as her power poured out encasing the entire forest with its gentle light that seemed to touch the trees and the ground. The flowers and the animals there seemed to also be touched by the light that was exuding from her body to heal it. Her wings would glow brightly as she would float off the ground remaining there until she was sure the entire forest was healed.

A wide grin spreads across Seshuyin's face as he heard the word fire ring through his ears. He stood up to stretch his long limbs and pointed his left hand to the lake, setting it ablaze, "Fire huh, sure I can do that." He said, knowing that he was supposed to say that before showing off.

Raven sat up. She had been laying back in a bed and reading a book. She felt a disturbance in the air. Nyma, the angel, was calling it seemed. Her heard began to race. raven closed her eyes feeling Nyma's presence. She jumped t her feet and, revealing her wings, she jumped out the open window and began to fly away. She had to hurry.

Kaz let out a loud scream, she could feel what Nyma was doing, afraid that she would be to late she took to tiger form. "Get on! We may be to late already, she has already absorbed the feathers of the earth. She is trying to heal the forest near town!" Before Jack could get on good she was off, not worrying so much about him knowing he would follow her and would be able to find her.
Jack just nodded as Kaz ran off, he knew she would be running before he could jump on her back so he shifted himself to his tiger form. Pausing to look at the doc, "We will have to find a way to save Nyma. No one should have to die for a world that will keep repeating the same mistakes century after century, and lifetime after lifetime."
Casting a forlorn look to Kaz's wake he added, "Also, we have no idea what will happen to Kaz if Nyma dies. No one we know has shared their life force with another like she did." With that said he turned and ran off after Kaz.
Kaz ran at full speed, hissing at a couple of cars that screeched as the drivers braked at the sight of a large tiger running across the street. She slowed down as she came to Nyma, watching the forest as it seemed to be healing. Kaz had tears still streaming from her eyes. Standing near, half afraid of touching Nyma she just watched in terror. She felt a slight drain to her own energy, her eyes widened. "NYMA! Stop, don't do this, there is more to live for then a legendary sacrifice!" She yelled, hoping to be heard.
Slowly she stepped up to Nyma, she shifted, reaching a paw out she grabbed a hold of Nyma's hand and waited. focusing all her thoughts on her own family, and happy time that they had had together and thoughts of introducing Nyma to them. Sharing them all with Nyma. Hoping to give the angel something to live for, waiting to see if it would work or not.

“Too…late…it has begun…” Nyma would take her hand from Kaz’s paw. Her eyes were full of wishes and wants. They were the eyes of someone wanting to live. “I must do this…to protect the city. Please understand.” Nyma had done what she could to heal the forest as she would fly away to accept the final two feathers where in she would meet another angel already there. A violet haired and eyed angel.
“I sensed you…You do this for us….”
“Yes, please do not stop me. I have no choice or millions shall perish….” She would set herself for the sacrifice as she floated up towards the sky to accept the final two feathers needed. The feathers of song as she felt them lodge into her back. She did not cry out in pain as it hurt terribly, all she did do was cry about wanting to live. She’d hug herself knowing that she had to die in order to protect. She needed a barrier large enough to keep all destruction from the city and heal the forest at the same time. It had to be a large scale magic.
Nyma began to focus as she floated there before feeling the angel that was near her just hug her. She did not push the angel away but rather hugged back. She knew why the angel was there. She needed someone to catch her as she fell from the sky lifeless. Nyma began to exact the magic needed by then as she created the barrier first over the city to protect it from any forms of destruction and to show the city the truth of their own plight and their own actions. They needed to know it. The other part of the magic would flow throughout Skog’s forest to further heal it as Nyma’s eyes began to quiver and suffer. She’d begin to falter then as she went limp in Melanie’s arms.
Melanie would float down to the ground as she suddenly felt pain shoot through her body. She felt afterwards power surge through her body as Nyma was giving her power from the feathers and her soul just at death. Melanie didn’t have a soul nor magic except the feather of water she found. Her eyes widened as she landed upon the sitting on her knees holding the dead Nyma gently in her arms. The woman had sacrificed her own life to protect the city from any harm that might come to it, to stop a war.

Amelia heard the window in the guest room open and she came to the door and knocked. Realizing no response came she opened the door and found Raven was not in the room. Amelia closed the door to the room and came down to the garage where Lance was busy preparing his body for a tough conflict ahead.
"Papa, Raven has left the premises." Amelia said calmly as Lance checked his mobility. He looked up to her and nodded as he stood.
"Thank you Amelia. I'll be back later." Lance said as he put a hand on her shoulder. Lance remembered Raven's surprise when she met Amelia some time ago. She probably never seen a realistic robot before. Amelia is more like a mechanical doll then a typical robot.
"Please call if things get to chaotic Papa. You do tend to over do things at times." Amelia said as a smile crossed her lips.

Kaz felt the pain, and the tears falling faster. She could not stop Nyma from doing what she felt she, she just looked up at her and watched as it happened. She saw another angel appear and wondered what she was there for.
She felt more than she saw as Nyma faded, the suddenness of it felt like a jolt to her own life force. Suddenly Kaz felt nothing, not even that she herself was falling. Everything around her was no more, she fell into blackness, until she sensed nothing else. No emotions, no sight, hearing, just plain nothingness.
Jack ran full speed trying to catch up to Kaz. Finally he caught up to her and saw her holding Nyma's hand. As Nyma let go his eyes widened, he shifted and watched in terror. What would happen to his beloved? He could do nothing to stop Nyma, so he had to wait and see.
As Nyma fell he saw Kaz wobbling on her own feet. Eyes wide with fear for her he rushed to her side and caught her as she fell backwards. Her eyes closed he shook his head, "No, no... Kaz, wake up baby. KAZ!!!" He screamed. Holding her to his chest he sat with her, unashamed he let his own tears fall. She was his world, his everything and now she was still, albeit the slow rise and fall of her chest that hinted at life.
Jack stood with her in his arms, taking a deep breath he reminded himself that he needed to remain calm. Yes they were in a forest, but it was not theirs, he could not help but feel like a trespasser on land he was not welcome to. Burying his nose in Kaz's shoulder he noticed the other angel that had fallen. "I know of a place we should be safe, it is not far from here. If you wish follow me, I need to get Kaz there soon though." He addressed her, "By the way ma'am, my name is Jack."
With that he started walking in the direction they had left. feeling torn, and hollow. His Kaz was out, she was gone from inside him as he had grown accustomed to. He always heard her thoughts, felt her joys and pains. It made his own world seem less bleak. She was his other half, and he felt incomplete without her thoughts with his own.

“Go for now. I must stay and bury her. I am Melanie.” Her arms were still holding Nyma cradled in her arms as she sat there. She would not leave Nyma alone as she gently brushed aside hair from Nyma’s face. Tears fell from Melanie’s eyes for the first time as she looked for a safe place to bury her.

Skog dropped to the ground in a seizure-like fit. "Se- Seshu-yin," He stammered, unsure of what was going on. When he started to glow, his seizure stopped. "Someone is in my forest!" He yelled angrily to no one in particular, "I will return when I have seen to this. Be ready for battle, friend. I... don't know what's going on." Standing up quickly, he said his goodbye to Seshuyin.
Skog raced back to his forest, with the hummingbird meeting him halfway, as it had been looking for him. "Hummingbird! What is going on here?" The hummingbird twittered excitedly, and he nearly tripped over himself at its response. "Angels? Those human-loving weaklings have no right to be in my forest!" He growled at the hummingbird. Skog changed into his human shape before arriving at the scene. "What is this?!"

"Kheh!" Seshuyin grunted as seeing Skog, "And here I thought I was the weird one. Well now, looks like today will be a good day after all...I will get to reek havoc among the humans." He said, smiling at the end. He turns to look out to the lake to see the flames starting to die out by the water and the fish starting rise up on their sides, dead, from the sudden temperature change. The water was steaming and bubbling all over from the intense heat of the flames that it looked like the Agnes Mountains held a volcano inside.

“I will finish what you started…I will heal this forest, but I will not sacrifice myself to protect the city with a barrier as you have. The city and the area will not have war. Thank you Nyma.” Melanie smoothed out the woman’s hair before standing up as she closed her eyes. “Hear me oh light, healing, and song. Guide my powers and heal this forest. Make her wish a reality. Stop the war that is to start by the wish of destruction. She wished not the destruction of anything, so please feathers! I beg of you stop it from happening!” Melanie’s own wish happened as she started to glow herself floating off the ground and surrounded by a ball of light. Her body was on fire it seemed but not in a malicious manner as she was then swept over by water before kissed by the wind. A light gently caressing her skin, before healing took place, and finally the gift of truth as she opened her lips to sing a song for the forest’s sake. Her entire body was alive and well as she sang the song of life to heal the forest. She had to protect the humans and the forest at the same time.
