Rinion keeps trying to soothe Krista, stroking her hair and holding her close.
Damien shakes his head. "Aylana, really," he says, the same soft voice. "How do you expect to do that before he runs into this room? If that were Rhiannon on the stretcher, nothing you could say would be able to calm me down."
Lenore stands a little, to brush the tear from Melantha's cheek.
~*~*~***~*~*~
Nyoka sees him, not too far ahead. Speeding up, she gets in front of him, and close enough to hear her voice. In a low, hard voice, and said in the scariest tone she can manage, she says, "You like to beat on women, do you? How about you take on a woman your own size?" If Ducan were to look in the trees on the right side of the path, he will see the flash of green glow coming from her eyes.

Damien's words couldn't be closer to the truth as Surion raced towards the room dodging around anything that was in his way, this included the Fa'e and Damien as they emerged from the room "Move Lana, Damien.... please" he says trying to avoid them in his hurry to be near who he loved, nothing would stop him if he could help it.
Ala shook her head "Dear Visha.. if it weren't so much of a emergency I would never have done that" she says before hurrying into the haven after Surion she too following scents

Krista looks over just as she see Surion enter the room. Looking up a Rinion she shakes her head before hiding her face once more. She knew this wasn't going to go well. Turning she rest her cheek on Rinion's chest as she watches Surion. Aylana closes her eyes before turning back towards Damien the tears started falling as she shook her head " I was trying to warn him...." her voice was barely above a whisper. " But your right, how do you tell a person there love one lying there helpless, and not expect them to freak out..." she looked away from Damien just watching the back of Surion's head. She knew this wasn't going to be pretty. Melantha closes her eyes feeling the touch to her cheek. Opening her eyes as she heard the footsteps she looks up before letting Tinania's hand go. Stepping away from Tinania so she could give Surion room she wraps her arms around her waist. She too just watched, she didn't know what she could do now. ~~~~~~~ Ducan dropped the cig as he came to a stop. He swallowed as he held his breath. A shiver ran down his spine as he continue to look around. He could feel his heart pounding hard. almost like it was going to come out of his chest. Moving his hand slowly to his pocket he pulls out a flip blade holding it in his hand " Who the ******** is there?" he continues to look around until out of the corner of his right eye up in the tree he spots the glowing. Taking a few steps backwards he continues to watch the green eyes. " What the hell are you talking about? I didn't do s**t...."

Rinion kisses Krista's temple, and rests his cheek on the top of her head.
Damien reaches up and puts a hand on Aylana's shoulder. He doesn't say anything as he is nudged out of the way.
Lenore stands next to Melantha, and slips an arm around her waist. They're still friends, and she is going to try and be there for her for this.
~*~*~***~*~*~
"Oh?" Nyoka says, stepping from the shadows. She is probably pretty intimidating, her long hair wild about her, her face set in a mean, evil, angry way, her eyes glowing faintly. In her right hand is the long-bladed dagger that she pulled out before, strapped across her chest is the quiver of arrows, sheathed at her side is her sword, and her bow is stowed away at her back. Not to mention that she might be towering over him with all six feet of her stature.
She studies the elf before her, her black lips twisting up into a sneer as she sniffs the air around him. "You reek of blood, Ducan," she says, keeping her voice low. "You have it all over you. Now," she says, changing her voice into an overly-pleasant tone. "I have a cousin, back in my home. She has been cut very badly," her faintly-glowing eyes snap to Ducan for a moment, before she starts to circle him. "You are covered in Tinania's blood. Don't deny it!" she says the last through clenched teeth.
Clearing her throat, she resume circling him, pricking her finger on the sharp tip of her own dagger, allowing her lethal blood to spill onto it. "I am here to get revenge, Ducan. Because, Tinania cannot do it. I ask you the same question as before. How about you take on a woman your own size?"

"Nani!" Surion just about freaks his eyes turning green, oh Visha he was sure he knew who did this, no way she'd wind up this way on her own. He runs across the room dodging anyone who was standing around till he was at her side, "Oh dear Visha, please be all right" he pleaded hesitating only a moment before taking hold of her hand ignoring the glow the gem on his forehead emitted the second he did
Ala pants coming to a stop in the sitting room door "What... happened..." she gasps out, she didn't remember exactly why she came racing to the Haven so quickly, had to have been important though
(( note to anyone reading who hasn't read previous RPs, too many straight Nether Jumps, those are jumps without a minnutes' break on the other side, are not a good thing, and can cause the jumper to forget the things at the top of their mind for things to do ))

Shadows melt off of Eirnae's form as she steps into the sight of all within the same room as Tinania, resting a hand on Surion's shoulder as she silently looks down on her niece's face. Her lips are pursed in a thin line, and her eyes' irises seem unable to decide whether they are sea green or a brillantly bright emerald. She does not know who is responsible for this actrocity, but she's sure that they must be the greatest fool on Gaia to believe that they will escape the wrath of the Haven's families.
~~~~~~~~~~
Shina had been reading a book in the family's library, treasuring a bit of privacy in a house as crowded as this. It was only thanks to her empathy training that the surge of conflicting emotions that had flooded the manor didn't give her the world's most terrible headache to date. Shutting down a large portion of her sixth sense, she slipped from the library and peeked up the stairs, finally ascending them when things seemed to have calmed down somewhat. She finds Damien with Aylana, just missing Surion as he heads in the direction she knows Tinania and Eirnae are in. She gently lays a hand on Damien and Aylana's shoulders as she asks quietly, "How is she?" Only Tinania's brand of emotions had dripped with pain earlier, so she presumes that only she is the one who is hurt.
~~~~~~~~~~
The trail led a winding path through the forest, and wasn't hard to follow in the least. Especially with the additional one that had joined it recently. A snapped twig, a droplet of blood smeared on a tree's trunk, each small step led her closer to her target. The wide swathe of grass that has been pressed down at one point tells her who she is sharing this task with, and that fact brings a slight curve to one side of her mouth.
She just reaches the edge of the trees where Ducan and Nyoka are having their stand off as Nyoka begins to circle her prey. Dark blond hair is pushed out of her eyes and tucked behind a long and slender ear as she watches the woman she considers kin, despite how obvious it would be to any observer that their blood is not what ties them together. Certain that Nyoka will be able to handle the man who dared to harm one of their own yet not wishing to take chances, the darkly garbed elven youth creeps around to the side, keeping the pair of combatants in her sights.

Krista watches Surion before closing her eyes for a moment, this was more then she could handle. Pulling away from Rinion she walks out of the room pass Aylana, Damien, Shina, and Ala. She was tembling as she pushed her hands through her hair. Without really caring anymore she hits at the wall a few times before sliding down the wall sobbing. Her arms were wrapped around her body as she pulled her legs as close as she could to her body. Her breathing labored a few times as she continue to cry. ~~~*~~*~~~ Melantha watched as her twin left the room, she was tempted to run after her and hold her, but she knew right now it would be better to stay here. Looking up she watches Eirnae and Surion. Her body was still tense as she placed a hand over Lenore's that was at ehr waist giving it a squeeze. Her anger at this point was building, she wanted to go find Ducan and kill him. The cat within her was demanding it of her for hurting someone close to her. Her eyes had flashed white a few times, but she wasn't allowing it. Looking over at Ala she steps away from Lenore as she walk over placing a hand on her shoulder. It was trembling as she looked around the room then back at Ala " Tinania had been attacked, by Ducan, a boy who lived on this land..." her voice was cold and unforgiving as she spoke Ducan's name. ~~~*~~*~~~ Aylana looks over her shoulder towards where her mother had run off to. As much as it pained her she knew not to follow. Placing her other hand on top of Shina's hand she bites her bottom lip " She fairing, she keep phasing in and out it seem. But it seems she sleeping right now. All we can is wait and pray that she will pull through this..." she looks at Damien for a moment before looking back into the room. Tinania breathing labored a few times before it went back to normal. Her hand moved alittle within Surion's but she never woke up. ~~~*~~*~~~ Ducan's eyes for the first time showed fear as he watched Nyoka. He knew trying to get away would be useless. Holding the blade in his hand his eyes narrowed alittle as a twisted smile formed on his lips " The little brat had it coming to her. All she needed to do was hook up with me then this would have never happened." he pauses when he hears the last part of what she said. Looking her over he laughs alittle shaking his head " You wouldn't stand a chance against me. I'll take you on and you'll fall just like that little wench did.." pulling out another switchblade he holds one in each hand his eyes never leaving Nyoka.

Rinion follows Krista, watching as she punches the wall, and then crumbles onto the ground.
And his heart aches. He crouches down in front of her, and pushes the hair out of her face. He doesn't know what to do, so he finally just rests his hands on her shoulders.
Lenore watches as Krista leaves, and Mel walk over to Ala. She steps back, and leans against the wall, watching everyone.
"She's stronger than she looks, Aylana," Damien says, shaking his head and looking back into the room. "She is going to pull through."
~*~*~***~*~*~
Nyoka's eyes flash, for the briefest of instances, a more intense green. She narrows her eyes, still glowing faintly, and hisses. "You're pathetic," she says, in a dangerous tone. "Hurting a woman, because you are a piece of s**t that doesn't deserve anyone's heart."
She shakes her head, still walking in a circle around him. She runs a finger over the long scars on her right hip, the ones Poseidon gave her with his trident before she killed him. This little s**t before her would be hardly any challenge.
Pulling out the other dagger, the anonymous gift from someone, she grins wickedly. "Come one, Ducan," she says. "Try and draw first blood. . . ."

Surion felt Eirnae's touch, and any other time he might have pulled from it, but this was not that time... "Oh Visha please let her be all right" he was pleading to the woman he knew as the goddess of his father's people, the glow his gem was constant and bright, and dark pinkyred tears slid down his face, and he leaned closer kissing his mate's lips, ignoring hte taste of her blood on her lips.
Ala stared a moment taking in what Mel told her before a low growl was heard from her and her eyes narrowed "Him again" she growls her eyes turning a bright green she hadn't been angry in this way in a very long time.

Eirnae doesn't move her hand, this being the first time she's placed it upon her student while he is concious and maintained contact. Normally she'd be with those of her immediate family to comfort them during this crisis, but the mercenary in her knows that in Surion and Krista's hearts beat the deepest pain, and the latter prefers to deal with her sorrows alone. Here is where she is needed, and here she will remain till Surion asks her to leave. Silently she vows to re-enchant Nani's brooch to better protect her niece in the future, cursing this oversight of her skills. 'Forgive me,' she adds into the prayers she is already sending up to Eilistraee for the welfare of Tinania, 'This will be corrected. By my word, she will not come to this again.'
Much as Eirnae seemed to come into sudden existance, a female form steps from the shadows cast by the bed onto the floor, shaking off wisps of darkness with flicks of slim wrists. Somehow this white robed figure seems as if made of the element she just came from, her ebony skin barely reflecting any light as she goes to be beside Eirnae and Surion, bending over at the waist to examine Tinania's body with intense scrutiny. Pale lavendar hair almost floats forward to brush at Nani's fingertips as Calavel reaches to rest a hand on Nani's abdomen, her eyes fluttering closed as she murmurs softly in the gutteral language of her people. The palm of the hand now resting upon the sheets between her and Tinania begins to glow a faint white.
~~~~~~~~~
"What has been done for her?" Shina asks as softly as before, looking from Damien to Aylana, trying to maintain the status of both. She does not wish to cast her senses beyond this small circle, there are too many variables in a situation such as this to keep organized for the effort to be worth the trouble, "And how was she hurt?"
~~~~~~~~~~
Full lips very much like Eirnae's lift in a smirk as sensitive ears pick up Nyoka and Ducan's exchange almost as clearly as if the young elf were but a foot from them. Nyoka's gibes at Ducan's expense bring a twitch to the palm of her right hand. She longs to wrap it around the hilt of her shortsword and slide the point of the icey blade through Ducan's ribcage. Not too quickly, as she'd want his heart to only begin to freeze when he realized he'd been stuck like the snot-nosed pig he'd turned out to be. She settles for curling her eager fingers around the leather of the hilt lovingly, her thumb stroking at the familiar texture as she continues to weave through the green, as silent as the shadow she oft resembles. If he dares to run from Nyoka's challenge, then he will be hers. If he tries anything tricky, then he will be hers, also. Yet Nyoka has called first blood, and she will honor that. It is the least she can do for her sister.

Krista looks up at Rinion shaking her head before she crawls into his arms wrapping her arms around his waist holding him in a firm grip " I can't loose her Rinion..I just can't..." her voice was bare above a whipser. She seemed almost to scared to say that outloud in fear it would come true. ~~~*~~*~~~ Melantha placed a hand on Ala's shoulder shaking her head " He is being handle, at least from what I have guessed." she looks over at Lenore hoping she is right. She knew anger was rising in those who were not crying. His blood is what was wanted to pay for what he had done. Tinania's lips moved under Surion's for a moment as she spoke softly " Pain....." she winces keeping her eyes shut. The pain in her head wasn't letting up no matter what healing or potions they used. If anything it seem to be increasing. Coughing alittle she moves her hand to place it ontop of the hand on her abdomen. the Other moving to rest on top of Surion's hand giving in a weak but gentle squeeze. It was her way of saying she wasn't going to die on him. ~~~*~~*~~~ Aylana looks to Damien nodding " I know she will pulled through, I'm not worried about that. I'm worried about the effects this b*****d may have caused on her mentally..." she closes her eyes trying to keep her anger under control for her sister sake as she looks toward her " I'm not sure how she was hurt, I was at work when it happened it seem. But some potions have been used on her. And not the healing going on right now." She falls quiet again just looking back toward the sitting room. She refused to give up hope, not when she could see her own sister still fighting. ~~~*~~*~~~ Ducan smirks shaking his head " You're in the mood to die, well then let me be the one to solve that for you." he doesn't even think as he lunges at her both his switchblades position to hit either her side or chest. He wanted to end this quickly so he could get home and away from this place. He knew if one of them was after him, then it meant Tinania was alive and others would be after him as well.

"You aren't going to lose her," Rinion says, holding her tight. "She might have a long road ahead of her before she feels back to herself again, but we are not going to lose her."
Lenore's eyes move to meet Mel's, and then move to Ala. They do this back and forth for a while, as she remembers the look on Nyoka's face, and the tone in her voice.
She shudders a little. She knows her daughter too well, and she knows what that look in her eyes was. She nods in response to what Mel has said, but she does not verbally acknowledge that she knows exactly what Nyoka left to do.
Damien looks over at Shina, and sighs again. "I think she had been stabbed, and pretty deep from the loss of blood. . . . Mum Lenore did what she could."
~*~*~***~*~*~
Nyoka drops her daggers in an instant, and her hand shoot out. She grabs Ducan's wrists, and grips them with most of her muscle. Her upper arms strain, showing the power there, as well as her forearms, as she squeezes Ducan's wrists tighter. She lets her long, clawed nails dig into his skin, and sneers at him. "There is only one person that is going to die, Ducan. . . . " she says in a dagerous hiss, the glow in her eyes instensifying for an instant, before they go back to glowing faintly.
She is hoping to get him to drop the switchblades, so she can have the satisfaction of roughing him up with her bare hands. And, if he runs away like the coward she knows he is, she has an arrow with his name on it. . . .

Ala's eyes do not change in color. not even a little bit "Surion nearly killed him once... Tinania stopped him" she tells the pair of them looking over at her son. "it's in me to wish she hadn't... this would have never happened if she hadn't"
Surion pulls from the kiss he was giving her when he heard her words "I'm here Nani, I'm here... please ... please be all right, I pray to the lady Kalika and Visha herself you will be ok" he says barely audible

Eirnae notices the wince on Tinania's face, and it's only because she is so close to where the healing girl rests does she hear the barely audible word of 'Pain'. Grinding her self control against the anger that wishes to surge to the surface, she gives Surion's shoulder a brief pat, then turns and walks away to give the young couple their privacy. Her mentor is here, and within Calavel lies the power of healing that Eirnae can only harness through magical items. The shadowdancer instinctively knows where Lenore is in the room, and stalks over to slide an arm around her betrothed's waist and draw her close without a word. She knows that her voice won't be steady right now if she spoke aloud, and no one in this room needs to know how much on edge she's become, especially Lenore. 'Eilistraee, please let me be strong for our family and friends during this time of crisis,' she prays in her head as she turns her focal attention to the two women who were talking with Lenore. She knows that Alatariel is Surion's mother, and that Melantha is Krista's twin, but she barely knows both women. The fact that Lenore and Krista trust them both has been enough for her not to pry, and wait for them to approach her when they are ready to talk.
Calavel's chant continues, though with a slight smile at the touch of Tinania's hand on hers. The glow under the drow priestess's palm expands gradually till it surrounds Tinania's body with a dull golden aura. Only then does Calavel go silent, slipping her fingers around Tinania's to hold the pale teen's hand gently. "You will heal, child, given time. Now you must fight the demons in your mind. Rest and gather your strength, for this is a battle only you can fight," she advises quietly.
~~~~~~~~~~
"Stabbed," Shina repeats, but not as a question. She believes Damien, though a part of her never would have thought such a thing possible on the lands that her parents own. "Do we yet know by who?" She looks to Aylana for the last question. After all, her sister had said 'this b*****d', and that usually means that the person muttering said curse is aware of who it implies.
~~~~~~~~~~
He's being held steady, unable to move. The handle of her sword gets regripped all the tighter, her eyes narrowing till they are little more than green slits slashed into skin. She ceases her sidestepping, crouching down still more. Now she is close to kneeling on one knee, all muscles taunt and ready to propell her in any one direction at the slightest provocation. She prays that he'll give her a reason.

Krista held onto Rinion as she continue to try and keep herself from breaking down anymore then sha already had. She mumble to herself but it was more of a pray to the heavens that nothing would go wrong while her daugther heals. She was trembling and her body went num on her a long time ago, but none of this seem to matter to her right now. ~~~*~~*~~~ Aylana looks over at her sister then to Damien, frowning she nods alittle " I have a good guess as to who it might have been. He goes by the name of Ducan. He was once a childhood friend of Tinania. But he changed since then...I knew we should have taken him off the land the moment you camr to us Damien..." she looks down her fist clenching up enough that the knuckles turned white. ~~~*~~*~~~ Melantha winces slightly from Ala word then nods alittle " As do I, but we can't change what has happen. All we can do is give her support, just like Surion is doing right now and pray that she will be okay. We have done all we can do..Its in the young sprites hands now..." she turns looking back at Lenore and Eirnae. Her eyes went emotionless as she once again put up the front of acting brave. It was the only thing she could do, she didn't want to break down, that would be admitting deafeat, and as long as Tinania didn't gve up on them she wouldn't. Tinania smiles alittle hearing Calavel's words. All she wanted to do was sleep now. Opening her eyes slowly, even the color seem to dull in her eyes as she looked at Surion " I will not give up......" wincing alittle she closes her eyes as the pain in her head became over whelming. Breathing alittle hard she squeezes Calavel's along with Surion's hands. The pain felt as if her head was ripping apart, and this was shown clearly on her face as she seem to force herself to sleep. It was so she escape the pain even for a short time. ~~~*~~*~~~ Ducan face wrinkles up showing the pain that Nyoka was causing to his wrist. Growling as well as hissing in pain he couldn't seem to stop himself as the dagger dropped from both his hands. Looking at her his eyes narrowed as "Yea its going to be you...." jumping up into the air his lifts his feet towards Nyoka's mid section hoping to knock her away from him. It would give him enough time to get away from her.
