"Noo...if I remembered you then I would probably be trying harder" he said this andten lept straight from the branch he was on to one half way to her ehight and then another the same height as hers was on the opposite side. "You'll run out of brnaches to jump up to soon enough..." he said this and then a split second later he was standing on the branch directly above her and looking down. He recognized the texture of water when hsi attack was sen off course earlier and though he'd not known it earlier he now assumed the little butterfly thjing to have been what shielded her from his claws. He kicked hard off of the branch he was standing on, causing it to brack off almost completely but not quite. The branch fell down towards her and he hung upside down from the branch above it, swinging himself swiftly around onto the top of the branch nad peering through blood filled eyes at the branch from before. He did not take his time though, if she'd dodged the attack he'd make sure to be attacking her before she'd have time to dodge again. He jumped to another tree and then kickied off of it launching himself toward the area around her branch so as to hopefully catch her midair before she could jump to another. The fault of this being that he would already be in the air as she was just jumping, giving her time to drop or dodge horizontally instead. The Blood Demon could have cared less though and was paying no more atention to the details of his attacks..he wanteed to make her bleed...

Karin glared at him, eyes following as he leapt around. "Then I'll jump to another tree," she growled, head jerking upwards as he appeared above her. She watched him steadily, one hand still clamped over her injured arm. Her eyes widened slightly though, as he jumped off and caused that branch to break. She frowned, not understanding why he needed to break everything he touched now. She threw her hands up though, catching the branch before it hit her. Luckily, the higher up you went, the smaller the branches became, so she was able to hold it up and not let it hit her. Her eyes followed, watching as he jumped towards where he thought she'd be heading to avoid the branch. Without any sign of command from Karin, the water butterfly darted out, aiming itself for Suka's side. Meanwhile, Karin dropped the branch slightly to the side, so it was in between herself and Suka. That way, there was a small chance he wouldn't see which way she went as she fled to another tree several trees away from the one they had been on previously. She did not want to hurt him. She just wanted him to return to normal, though she had no idea how to help him do that.

the blood Demon saw the butterfly just in time and cutting himself as he was in flight he threw a plentiful amount of the blood at the water butterfly thing and then stopped himseolf on the branch she was just standing on watching the blood cover the butterfly. The Blood Demon's wound healed up steadily and quickly leaving that excess blood to fend for itself. The blood was now being used as a weapon. He'd obviously been wrong about how she was going to move and so once the blood had completely concealedd the butterfly within it he made the blood leave from the butterfly and shoot out in an accidental opposit direction from which Karin was....though he'd sent it in seqarch of fresh blood and therefore if given enough time could easily find where Karin was. H dropped down a few branches and then kicked his way up to the top of this particular tree standing on the top-most branch even though it did not support his weight very good. Through all of this the part of Suka's mind that sstill belonged to him had already figured out the way to get rid of the Blood Demon...though he had no clue of how he wwas going to pull it off and had no contact with the outside world at all. Suka was imprisoned within his own mind and that he knew what to do to get his body back made it that much worse...The Blood Demon jumped off of the tree and began to fall fast, landing on a branch that broke and catching himsef by grabbing two other branches not far forom the broken one. He began to follow the blood he'd sent off as he saw it change direction, that she was bleeding made it utterly impossible to hide from him for very long. He would eventualy make her bleed for he was just using Suka's body, he did not feel the need to slow down and even if he did feel the body when it got tired Suka's body did not tie very easily...this could take a while.

Karin was crouched on the branch of a tree several away from the one she'd just been at. Her back was pressed firmly against the broad trunk, and she was holding he bleeding arm tightly. She knew that he could easily follow the scent of blood, but at least she'd gained a little time to catch her breath. She was near shaking from a combination of fear and sorrow, but she refused to let her face show anything other than the calm expression she'd been keeping. Occassionally it flashed to anger, but that was towards the demon who'd done this to Suka, and not to Suka himself. She had no idea how to help him return to normal, nor did she even really understand what had happened. She just knew that a blood demon had taken over his body. She didn't even know what exactly a blood demon was, except that it was intent upon hurting her. She bit her lip, bowing her head for a moment as she tried to call back her butterfly, but it didn't come. She growled very faintly in her throat and cupped her hands before herself. She began pulling water from the air and from the tree's surrounding her, though not enough to kill any of them. Soon, she had a nice sized puddle in her hands, overflowing the edges slightly, yet not falling. She held it in place and kept it from dripping away. This was her only defense since she didn't want to hurt him with her claws. The water could just push him away without actually causing injury. Even if he wasn't thinking straight, it was still Suka.

The Blood Demon stopped the blood as he caught a glimpse of her and then he cut himself open again in the same exact place as he had for the blood that was already there. As the blood poured out of the new wound he held it open and then finally stopped it from bleeding much more and let the wound close just as quickly as it had before. Now the stench of the blood was all over the place and though he had not been following a scent there were other people that might now want ot follow it andthen there was KArin who would by now be aware of his position. The blood did not just float there though, it formed the shape of a hilt and a huge blade. The hilt latched onto the blade and then the blood began to crystallize and solidify. Once it was silod he ran his fingers across it stopping halfway as it was longer then his arm could outstretch to. He dragged it for a few moments but themn picke it up and swung it at the closest tree, the blade made a clean cut through it and the tree leaned into another tree as it fell. The blood Demon dragged the blade beside him with both hands as he now went off in her direction, the little bit of blood from before following im in an orblike fashion...this blood manipulation wouldnot last long for it drained Suka's body of a lot of it's blood and would need to return sooner or later lest run te chance of the blood demon faling unconcious and Suka's body going limp. He swung the large sword again and hits another tree making another clean cut and havig that one fall onto the tree that he'd seen Karin at...right now though se was unsure of where Karin was and was not in the mood for playing with her anylonger....he was going to draw more blood if it was the last thing he did while in control of this body...

Karin's head jerked around at the sudden almost overwhelming scent of blood in the air. Her eyes widened this time before she could stop them as she peered around the tree she was sitting against, in time to see the blood shaping itlsef and then solidify. She stared open now, not even bothering to act calm or like she wasn't bothered. She actually flinched as he cut through the first tree, and scrambled back in alarm as he felled the second. On her feet now, she walked backwards along the tree branch she was sitting upon before leaping to a new tree and darting behind the trunk of that one, so there was still something between them. She couldn't turn her water to ice to make it more solid. She could only shift around the liquid form. She knew there was almost now way he wouldn't cut through the water if she tried making a sheild from it. Also, gathering that much of it would only tire her out needlessly. She bit her lip, hands moving into her pocket to fidget nervously with the X there, as the water she'd gathered floated by her head in a shapeless puddle. She tensed her whole body, ready to spring away at a moment's notice.

The Blood Demon followed her movement as it had not been very hidden and the tree whose trunk she hid behind wasn't too far off either. Instead of cuttting a tree to fall into it he swung the blade at that particular tree making a not quite clean cut but still enough to knock it down. As it fell he followed slowly after it and then instead of waiting for it to fall all the way he jumped andd kicked it sliding the blade along beside him as he did and using it to balance out his positioning. He stood there in silence not knowing where she was ans sicne he hadn't a clue of her current position and the scent of solidified and liquid blood smelled the same even if he could smell a little more he would not be able to find her. The five senses were of no use to him at this point. At her next movement he would strike for she was most likely not far enough from where he stood at this current moment. The Blood Demon stood silent and waited...

[It's ok! Take care ^^]
Karin glanced around the tree trunk, springing back onto a branch of that same tree as she saw him hack at it with the sword. It began to fall, but as it did she jumped on the edge of the branch and ran along the end, jumping off just before the tree hit the ground. She reached out with her hands, grabbing a branch and then swinging herself forward. She then landed nimbly upon a branch of a neighboring tree and crouched there, quickly turning back around to face him. She inched back a couple steps after standing again, still facing him. The water was floating by her head again, having stayed with her as she moved. She bit her lip, tilting her head slightly as she watched him through her left eye. Her right was covered by her hair, but she made no move to shift it aside. She just focused soley upon him, not even blinking. Her ears were flattened back, tail flicking behind herself, and she was lowered slightly with her legs bent, still ready to spring away if needed. Hiding would be pointless, she realized. He'd just go around hacking down every tree in his path, and she didn't want that. So she just watched him, hands back in her sweatshirt pockets despite how afraid she was. Her natural instict was to not let on of her fear, so that's what she'd returned to doing.

Mack heard loud noises behind him. He turned around but then shook his head. "Better not to get involved," he muttered to himself. "Anyways, that's not what I came here for." He continues on his way through the forest. Soon afterward, though, he began to feel tired. "I'm sure a nap won't hurt me." he says. He looked around for a decent place to rest and found a tree leaning against another. "This looks good enough," he mutters, as he lays down under them. He closed his eyes and had soon fallen asleep.

Leon walked into the forest looking around at the Huge trees that surrounded him. He was very impressed by there size, some must have been at least 100 feet tall. Over all it was very intemedating. Leon continued walking looking at the plant life as well as the little forest critters that scurried around. He began thinking about life and moralizing on his choice to become a warrior. As he always did when surronded by this much unadulterated life. He was so lost in his thoughts that he didn't hear the giant wings beating over head. A piercing roar broken Leon's concentration. His hands instantly where on the hilts of his swords which were out of the scabbards soon after. Looking around he couldn't see anything. Until he looked up, circiling overhead was a Great Blue Dragon. He had read about them before though he had never seen one in person, he had been greatful for that considering the size of the beast. It was over 30 feet long and had solid blue scales that were harder than diamond, It's eyes were a piercing red which bore into the soul of the Dragon's victim. Leon couldn't remeber the Dragon's strengths and weaknesses however and he cursed his lack of attention during one of his father's lectures.
"Alright, let's go." leon said under his breath as the beast landed with a great thump that shook the forest's very foundations. It opened it's great maw and let out another blast of sound that rocked Leon back on his heels. never one to back away from a fight Leon charged in recklessly. He jumped up into the air beating his wings to gain height, he rolled in and dismissed his wings quickly so as not to obstruct his arms with the strike he was about to try. With his momentum building He brought his arms behind his head and through the hardest downward slash he could muster aiming right between the dragon's eyes. Leon's swords simply bounced of throwing him of balance. The dragon turned, one of it's mighty wings collided with leon during his decent slaming him into a tree. Leon hit the ground hard but got right back up. He was very winded however and didn't think it wise to try that strike again. The dragon twisted it's body even farther bring it's tail around to strike Leon in the chest sending him flying once again into another tree, this one cracked from the force of leon's metal clad chest slamming into it at a speed that would kill any who hadn't conditioned his body as hard as leon's. Now he was hurt, with at least a cracked rib or three Leon passed out, a dangerous thing to do in a fight against a dragon.
"you must wake up child" Leon was dreaming, the spirit that dwelt within him contacting him through his subconciouss.
"who are you?" Leon asked looking around in this strange half reality, all he saw was the mutilated body of a phoenix with sharp claws and black feathers on it's wings. "what are you?" Leon asked starring at the monstrosaty before him.
"all that will be answered in time through memories i will share with you. But now you must wake up and kill this dragon! Or else nothing will exist of us ever again." The creature said all at once Leon's eyes snapped open, but they weren't his eyes. They were completly black with small white pupils framed by a red iris. His right hand started glowing with a white, heavenly light and his left glowing black as the darkest midnight. Leon quickly sheathed his swords and stood to face the dragon, he approached the beast at a run bringing forth his wings and flying straight at the dragon's head. Letting out and unearthly roar himself leon put both of his fists together ahead of himself and let all the energy he had inside of himself go. A beam of gray energy shot straight out of his outstreched arms blasting into the dragon's face knocking him back and destroying most of the scales that served as the dragon's armor. Still flying at the dragon leon pulled one of his swords out of the scabbard and collided with the dragon's head stabbing down with all his strength right between the dragon's eyes. This time it worked and he pierced straight through skin and bone into the dragon's brain, effectivly killing it.
Leon collapsed to the ground and stared up at the sky. "where did that come from?" he asked himself his eyes turning back to thier normal shade of blue. He slowly collected himself off of the ground favoring his right leg and his left side. He had broken two ribs and his right leg in the fight. "better get to the hospital..." He flapped his wings, which were luckily undamaged thanks to the forsight of dismissing them during his first attack, and flew back towards the school making a straight shot for the hospital.

Ayise skipped through the underbrush, looking around the forest with undisguised child-like curiosity. Small animals scittered underfoot but nothing apprently dangerous had come by, Kii-kun slithered on the ground; probably enjoying it's natural environment.
She was fascinated by all the flowers and wildlife here, it was so much more different than home. All the plants there were carefully clipped, not a leaf out of place.
"I'd like to teach the world to sing,
In perfect harmony..."

As usual, Ayise was running ahead happily, while Kumizu walked calmly, making sure he got a look at every little thing surrounding him. Something as lush as a forest got to test his observasional skills. ((theatre has poisoned me this way)) There wasn't exactly anything exciting yet, just birds and monkeys and... trees, and other animals you'd see in a regular forest. No evil manticores, he thought smiling.
As he caught up with her, Kumizu noticed the song she was singing. He was about to comment when he heard steps behind them; not human or any small animal. He whipped around; twisted the head of his cane, which brought out the tip of a poisoned dagger; and stepped in front of Ayise.

"I'd like to hold it in my arms '
and keep it company,
I'd like to see the world for once..."
Ayise stopped short when Kumizu jumped in front of her, "What's wrong Kumi-chan?" She asked, her body tensing at the footsteps. "W-what is that?" Ayise asked, nervousness edging her words. The bushes rustled and out came what appeared to be a large orange and red Salamander-type monster. It was almost twice Ayise's size. The creature looked furious and had long sharp teeth that gnashed the air.
Ayise sweatdropped, "I'm too young to die..."

The salamander ran at them. "Don't be silly. You're not going to." I won't let you die. Kumizu smirked, and threw his cane at the it like a javelin. It easily knocked the cane away with a foot, but that's what he was counting on. He generated a sword in his hand and rolled under the beast, slashing off its outstretched leg. It cried in pain, and tried to gnash at him. He managed to avoid its teeth and again rolled to get to his cane. He grabbed it while the beast was practically on top of him. Just as it went to bite him, Kumizu turned and stabbed it with the cane. The poison took an almost immediate effect. It cried out, a horrible screeching roar, which seemed to shake the forest and scared off many land animals and birds.
Kumizu walked back to Ayise, trying to ignore the dead salamander. People were one thing, he just wasn't... comfortable killing an animal unless it was necessary. But, it was. He leaned on his cane, a smile on his face. "See? You're not even scratched." His cuts and bruises were slowly healing themselves though his water energy.
