Welcome to Gaia! ::

She bit her lip and looked around then at him as she began to get soaked. "...be carful ok...?" She asked him, not ever wanting to let him go. She kissed his cheek,"..I love you..." She said in a pathetic tone of voice that she never ment to use, but it always just came out.

"I'd feel better if you could heal first, but..armor is a step better." She luaghed some. All she really could do was try her best to smile, she found it hard to be serious or frown around him.

She stepped back and jumped back on the branch,she examined his hrit ever now and then and got out her needel and thread, sewing as she watched him. Once again she promised herself that if things got too out of hand she'd interfere. ut until then..make herself useful and fix his shirt.

Baylor had dozed off on the tree branch while looking up into the sky. He was simply exhausted.

((BACK!!))

Altair kept swinging but he hit nothing but air, I need to get a lighter weapon, this hammer is to heavy for me to use aginst a fast opponent, Altair brought the hammer back but didn't swing forword the hammer became engulfed in darkness, it's shape changed into the scythe as well as the armor took on it's dark colors, Altair's stikes moved faster now, he spun and twirled around the scythe moving as a blur of black and grey.

Altair kept swinging and twirling, aquos kept dodging and blocking but Altair could tell she was worried, Altair finally managed to hit Aquos he kicked her hard in the chest causeing her to drop her trident and knocking her into a tree, Altair swung the scythe as hard as he could but Aquos recovered and rolled out of the way, the scythe blade sunk halfway into the tree, Altair tried to pull it out, nothing the scythe had become stuck, "s***" he muttered as he tried to pull again nothing. Altair turned around and faced Aquos she had her trident in hand. this dosn't look to good... Altair thought to himself. Aquos began to unleash a fury of attacks using the pointed and blunt ends of her trident, Altair used his hands and arms to block the attacks he caught the forked end of the trident with both hands he pulled the pushed causing the blunt end of the trident to hit Aquos in the gut, he pulled ripping the weapon out of her grasp, Altair then began to unload punches and kicks.

Altair pounded away at Aqous defences, He caught her in the ribs with a kick he spun then hit her in the jaw with a powerful roundhouse, once his foot touched the ground he jumped back and landed back at the tree his scythe was in when his hands touched it it changed from the scythe back to the hammer, the change in size caused the tree to break partiall creating a large hole in it, the hammer changed back to the scythe which was easily pulled out. Altair turned and Aquos was back on her feet trident in hand, "...and were back to square one..." He said giving a rather large sigh before taking his fighting stance.

"I think it's time I brought a friend to lend me a bit of knowledge..." Altair said, from the shadow of the tree a black cloaked figure rose behind Altair, the figure placed it's dark hands onto Altair's shoulders and bowed it's head, the figure was Darkus element of darkness the first that Altair had killed, Darkus faded Altair's eyes changed color, they were a dark blue now,Altair spoke...but his voice was differnt it was rather monotone and emotionless "Hello Aquos", "Darkus...what are you doing...your interfearing with the fight...", "Am I?... I don't recall doing anything other then watching my dear sister in law fight...is that so wrong?", "just leave darkus!", "Your words hurt...if that's how you feel I won't leave...instead I'll watch Altair walk all over you...now that he knows what darkness is capable of...", "What do you mean?", "Isn't it obvious?...Altair said it himself...I'm giving him full knowledge of his control over darkness...and you gave him the most excellent conditions to play with to" Darkus said. He was right, the rainclouds had blocked out the sun making things abit darker. "Well I think i've let him soak up enough to give him a edge using darkness...But I think I'll hang around with Aiyuko and Tear for abit...you know...since we'll all be popping up now and then...might as well get to know the people that this whole thing will effect" Darkus shrugged, Altair closed his eyes Darkus pulled out of Altair but he was no longer in his cloak but instead wore a Black t-shirt and a pair of dark blue jeans, his hair was fairly long and jet black, over his eyes he wore a pair of dark mirror sunglasses, a black gautair case was strapped to his back. He casually walked over and leaned aginst the tree Aiyuko sat in. Altair opened his eyes, they reverted back to his normal color, He rather casually twirled the scythe, "let's get started shall we..." He stopped the scythe then did a verticall then a horanontal slash, two waves of black energy came out as he slashed and headed at Aquos.

((And since Tear's sense of smell is better then anyone elses Darkus smells like a mix between midnight during the fall and cigrette smoke))
