There was a sudden, unholy screech as Alek was tackled by Angel. Her small body was deceptive; she, like all vampires, was very, very strong, and the two went flying maybe twenty meters before she thought to use her wings. At that point they were close to a small group of people, although thankfully out of sight. "What was that?" he asked softly, bemused and amused.
"There was a scary thing," Angel whispered with wide eyes. "And it was going straight at you!"
"Kid, that was a bird." Val knelt beside the two. "Birds usually don't hurt vamps. In fact, they're usually pretty scared of us."

"Not until I get out of this damned body." Vilrath responded to Mala.

"Geeze, was I this much of an a** too?" Van wondered as he scratched the back of his head. "Ah well, I'm Van. God of Thieves. Used to be stuck in his body until Mala and a random holy dude helped get me out." he said pointing at Riley.
"And I'm Riley, Mala's younger brother. And yes, I'm pretty sure you were. At least for the first month or so." Riley said in response to Van's question.

Mala chuckled at Ceri. "Very well, I'll try to quiet things off." she said. She then went on to joke to her friend, "If I find a hottie who's great in bed, however, all bets are off." Mala gave a playful wink as she said this to Ceri, clearly just playing around. After this she turned back to the others and chimed in to Van's question, "Riley's got a point. For the first month, as I recall, we couldn't stop fighting and trying to verbally murder each other."

Ceri smiled and nodded. She also blushed. "I guess we're making introductions....I am Ceri de Engle, and at the moment, I do believe that you are in my woods, which would make me your guide." She bowed deeply. She then looked at Mala and said, "I'm just glad your not going to kill me. I got pretty close to the deadline, don't you think?"

Then Angel noticed something delectable in the air. "People!" she whispered, her eyes widening. "And... god blood, I think." Her eyes widened further, almost impossibly, as she looked at her siblings. "Can we go drink? I'm hungry, so hungry." Her wings twitched restlessly and she folded them against her back. "Can we? Pleasepleaseplease?"
Val hesitated, then sighed. "If you ask nicely, Angel." She saw her sister's crestfallen face, and said, "I'm sorry, but we're not in the manor anymore. You need to learn to be polite to your food."
Angel nodded meekly, and then she was up and her little body was flung towards the group of people, and she was squealing adorably as she tackled down the god. She gave a little sniff and said, "I like you." She ignored her sister's voice, which came up suddenly.
"Nyx Rosafie Angelica!" Pure fury on her face, Val strode in and pulled Angel from the god. She needed to brush up on her history, he wasn't familiar... she had more pressing issues at the time. "When we left, I told you that we had to be discreet," she hissed. "That was not discreet. That was idiotic. You'll be lucky to get out of this with a whipping." During this angry speech, she had been dragging the girl back to their brother. "Please attach her to a tree or something, sugarsweet." Alek nodded and did so, the crystals growing rapidly from his hand and attaching one of Angel's arms to a tree.

Mala blinked a couple times. "Uh...Van? Who the hell was that?" she asked while looking over at the strange trio as the one who tackled Van was being dragged off.

"I was hoping you'd know..." Van grumbled somewhat sarcastically as he picked himself up and brushed himself off.

Val returned to the small group, bowing respectfully. "My sincerest apologies. My younger sister doesn't have much in the way of self-control, because she hasn't had to exercise it yet." Then she looked at the god and murmured, "You have god blood in you, but I don't recognize you. What's your name?"

"It's Van, God of Thieves, although technically I ditched the pantheon a few years ago." Van said folding his arms. "And most people don't ever meet a god in real life, I'd be more surprised if you did recognize me."

Val nodded slowly. "I've been worshiped on occasion, although mostly in bed." She sighed, running her hands through her hair, and suddenly she was staring at them suspiciously. "I know your game," she said, eyes narrowing. "You just want to put something through my heart. Lulling me into a false sense of security to kill me." She let out a banshee shriek (vampires shriek loudly, and they called it the Scream of the Damned) and sprinted back to her family, where she curled up, shivering, in her brother's arms.

"GAH!! HOLY--What in the nine hells was that about?!" Van said covering his ears in pain from the sudden shrieking, left in angry confusion by the bizarre girl suddenly getting paranoid before screaming her lungs out and running off.

Mala, who was quietly standing beside Van up until now, had tears brimming in her eyes from the pure pain in her ears. She fell to her knees, covering her ears as best as she could while hoping she didn't go deaf. Once the ordeal was over, the pain remained as her ears rang for the longest while. "What he said!" she exclaimed.

Angel was freed because Alek needed both arms to comfort their sister, so she squealed and flew and tackled Van again. "Sorry about that. My big sister's a little crazy, 'cause that's her demon. But only sometimes. Usually she's really nice and all not-shrieky." She nuzzled Van's neck. "Can I eat you?" Her wings rustled against her back restlessly.

"AHhhh!" Van flinched a bit at the sudden woman nuzzling him. "No, you can't eat me!" Van said pushing Angel away.
