[Some time later...]
Sutiiven walked towards the Gate with his companion. Sutiiven seemed to be otherwise the same, still packing his normal weapons and clothing but nothing more. His companion, however, was carrying a backpack on his back, seemingly light for the trip that they were about to embark on with Damrius.
"Remind me who this guy is...?"
"You met him once before, remember? At the beach..."
"Oh... that guy"
Stephen's companion was none other than his Silver Dragon, having taken Human form via his Polymorphing abilities. He appeared like an average human male, wearing simplistic clothing. This current incarnation had dark blonde hair and dark blue eyes, both each bearing a hint of sliver. He apparently was coming along for the journey, though as to why he was disguised and the only one carrying a backpack of the two was anyones guess.

As Sutiiven neared him, Damrius picked up the duffelbag he had, and started to move his way towards Sutii. Damrius saw he had a companion with him, and he didn't much mind, and he wasn't going to ask who the guy was - If he was with Sutiiven, then he must be of some use. Even if he wasn't much of a fighter, pack mules were always nice to have around.
I wonder if he can cook....
Hey, I've got a present for you, as I beleive I stated. It's some armor, pretty much the same as I've got. It's a lot liek Ryugi's Dragonsteel, and the set i had at HoH, but this stuff isn't as strong, and it's literally meant to help prevent the demons claws from getting through to you skin... Of course, these are the prototypes.
Damrius reached into the dufflebag, and tossed Sutiiven the smallest one, which should have fit him perfectly. The stuff looked like kevlar, only cause of the coloring of the metal, but it only looked like thus in the dark or from a distance, up close you could see the glint of metal. It slid on like a shirt, and moved just like a under the shirt tank top.
As Damrius tossed it, he looked over to the companion, up into his eyes.
I... I know you. You're the dragon.
The attractiveness had given it away.
You look good.
Hey, we gotta get going, or else it's gonna take us forever. i'm not sure where to start off, but i'm fairly sure we will if we go and have a look around at the local deaths in other cities, and mass sightings of "uber zombies", as I like to call them.
Damrius pick up the bag, closed it, and turned, starting to walk down the path...

Sutiiven caught the vest, and turned around to put it on as Dame began to walk away. The dragon, meanwhile, decided to have some fun with Dame.
Walking up from behind the man he approached him to one side for conversation.
"You're a very astute individual... I don't run into many humans like that -"
"I heard that!"
"- but I suppose everyone's unique."
If Dame were to look at the Dragon, he would notice that the humanoid creature was VERY close to him, practically breaking what many would consider the comfortable "bubble" without touching the man. He was grinning and one could notice that his canines were exceptionally sharp - another hint at his true form.
Apparently he was trying to startle Dame with his sudden appearance. The creature was a bit of a trickster.
Sutiiven caught up with the two a few seconds after he had performed an otherwise rapid clothing change - the armor was nowhere to be seen, but it was obvious it was beneath his clothing.
"So, where are we going again?" he asked, stretching his hands behind his head in front of the two sword hilts.

Damrius stopped where he was, a smile on his face. He reached up with his free hand, and removed his sunglasses, and stared the Darong in the eyes - His canines also unusually sharp, something else that had changed along with his sanity.
Heh, cute. And we are just going to go look around, see how close we can get to finding Triniti, cause I have no exactl location of her yet. She probably knows my general vicinity, but nothing more. So...
Damrius started to walk again, shrugging at the last word, letting it fade into the air.
*About a mile or so away from the gate*
Damrius stopped as he heard a rustling on in the bushes, his hand going for the combat knife on his right side, dropping the bag. As he started to pull it out, he saw... A rabbit. It stopped, looked at them, sniffed the air, and was about to move on, when a chipmunk came crawling down the tree to have a look at the rabbit.
as they Sniffed eachother, Damrius smiled a bit, and let the combat knife slide back into it's sheath, and went to pick up the bag he dropped, when the chipmunk suddenly opened it's mouth, wide enough to make out clearly the black, crystal like teeth in it's mouth, and bit the rabbit in half.
Damrius, never seeing a chipmunk Scourge, stood there, wide eyed, face full of shock, and right eye visibly twitching behind the sunglasses.
Holy... holy...
As he studdered, the Demon reached into it's mouth, yanked out one of its teeth, and it turned into what looked like a black, crystalized meat cleaver - the perfect size for a chipmunk. It then smiled at them, the smile as big as the "Alice in Wonderland" cat's smile. Bigger. Scarrier. Now, all that was needed was the dissappearing act.

[1] Stephen's eyes opened wide as he saw the atrocity open before him. This wasnt gonna be pretty. Quote: Save The Bunnies!!!: An unofficial state occassionally achieved by Sutiiven due to his soft spot for Rabbits. Similar to Overdrive, it is achieved by a surge of emotion unleashing all stored energy. Unlike Overdrive, however, it can be achieved without any stored energy, and can only be achieved when Sutiiven witnesses a Rabbit or Rabbit-like creature being hurt or otherwise in danger. (Berserk) With an cry of enraged anguish, Sutii unleashed a large amount of energy, thrusting him into a mock Overdrive like state. Though his normal powers remained unchanged, he appaeared otherwise Overdrived. With a quick flip of his jacket he suddenly pulled out a pair of handguns which he had apparently been hiding upon his person and unleashed two full clips at the creature. Wether or not this would have any effect was to be seen. Meanwhile, the Dragon walked past Sutii and Dame, took a deep breath, and unleashed a loud roar in attempt to intimidate the demonic creature into fleeing. Dame had yet to act, but seeing as he was the only one with experience with these creatures, he would probably have a more sensible approach to fighting this thing.

Damrius heard the gunshots, and then the roar. He sighed, walked up to the thing, and punted it. Or, thought he punted it.
As he went to kick it, the thing latched onto the tip of his shough, and began to gnaw on it, hacking away at the rest of the exposed steel wildly with it's cleaver.
As he started to fall over, thrashing his leg wildly, Damrius reached behind his side, and pulled out the Vengeful, his shortsword that wasn't so short, and thrust it towards the demon's face, only to see it get stuck inbetween the teeth, and started to go up and down as the demon continued to gnaw on it, and his boot. As it started to gnaw faster, damrius sent a surge of energy in through the boot, but it seemed to piss of the chipmunk on demonic steroids. It began to gnaw faster, getting through the metal toes of his boots.

[2] Sutiiven didnt even need a second to react to Dame's screaming. He happened to have some extra clips hidden on his belt, and due to his connections, a few of them happened to contain silver bullets. Dropping the empty clips from the guns he held, he quickly reloaded them with the silver clips and shot twice - it would only take one good hit to take off the things head clean off, but the second one was for good measure.

Damrius winced as the demons' head exploded, spraying him in blood.
He looked down at the body, and picked up the now back to a normal crystal shaped tooth the thing had turned into a cleaver, and used the vengful - now scuffed and dull at the tip from the chewing - to poke at the multiple bullet holes.
I've never shot one before... That was totally awesome, by the way. And..
As he poked in one more time, he culd see the blood soaked ground underneath through the multiple holes
That was totally overkill. I don't know why the regular bullets didn't work... We used silver arrows all the time, and this was just a little ********.... Well, that's at least useful info.
Turning to stare at Sutii, Damrius sheathed the sword, and started to slowly walk in one direction towards his bag.

Stephen wasn't paying much attention to Dame as he was dealing with the remaining half of the mercilessly slaughtered rabbit, performing something of a proper burial, at least as far as animals such as this were concerned. After finishing up, he walked back over to Dame and the Dragon. "SO. That was one of the Undead bastards, eh? Manipulative little thing. Sorry about your foot, by the way... " he said, now back in total control of himself.

Meh, it's okay. Nothing broken, nothing bitten, only one hellishly expensive boot ruined. I got another one. And yes, that was one of them. But, I've never seen a.. a chipmunk version before. That was new. Tells me it got infected though. We need to find a place to camp, and discuss battle plans.
Turning to the dragon, Damrius stepped closer, invading the personal bubble as he had earler.
So uh... Can you uh... er... Cook?
Damrius said this, and for the first time every, Sutiiven would hear damrius in a shy, kinda worried voice.
As Dame realized what he was doing, he stepped back, and looked over at Sutii, a kinda awkward smirk on his face. They did need a place to camp out, but they had a ways to go before sunset, and a ways to go before their chance of possibly running into something like a demonic chicken, or hell, even a cow. Now there was a scary thought...

"Are Trolls Stupid?" said the Dragon with a big smirk on its face. "Just don't expect much instant cooking by fire breath - being one who has a Cone of Cold as a breath weapon, I have to cook the old fashioned way." He said, and whapped the bag on its back, causing the sound of metal cookware to eminate from within amongst whatever else was in the pack.
Sutii smiled confidently at his companion, and then glanced at Dame. "I assume we need to get moving a bit before nightfall... where to?" he asked Dame.

Damrius looked back down the road, and sighed. Pointed that wa with his free hand, he started to move down it, and then stopped, left hand in the air, index finger moving as if trying to draw his words in the air. he turned and face Sutiiven again.
Are those uh... boomsticks and swords of yours... are they all you have with you weapon-wise?
Damrius asked this, and questioning look on his face - Guns would be useless against larger creatures, for the most part. Those suckers had tough skin, and arrows rarely worked unless boosted with the archer's abilities. Silver however, would probably melt the skin away. Not for it's religious "purity", but just because the buggers were alergic to it.

Dark Conspiracy "It's not funny!" Madison wiped her tears quickly away, as a few more people became angry with the fact that they were blocking the road for others. The rabbit finally rose to her feet and looked down at Chesire. "I don't know what I'm supposed to do!"
What she saw was a young Leporidae woman who seemed as if she was about to suffer mental collapse... and a strange felidae child with striking purple hair. The purple haired cat girl was unknown to her, but the rabbit... they'd found their girl.
As Madison exclaimed her uncertainty of how to proceed, a small child-like voice would answer her...
"Why, You should come with me of course!"

Madison had then looked up from her tears and noticed that their was another woman standing above her. The rabbit looked at her in a rather unsure manner as she brushed some of her hair out of her face, only to be curious on who this is.
"And who are you?" Madison sobbed slightly as she finally managed to clear her face. Now she didn't look like a sniffling idiot. Madison adjusted her clothing and the fixed her glasses. She had never seen this individual before in her life.
"You aren't the voice I heard."

Sutiiven looked back at Dame as he asked the question, looked over at the dragon, then back at Dame. With a sigh, he began to disarm himself.
Not saying anything, he took the twin swords of his back, sheath and all, and dropped them on the ground next to him. he hen reached into his jacked and dropped the two hand guns he had used previously. He then took off each and every one of the spare clips he had on his belt - six in all, there would have been eight but he had used two to reload earlier, four regular, four silver. He then removed two daggers strapped onto the back of his belt, and dropped them on the ground, then from the same general location, he took a small metal rod. At the press of a button, it extended to about five feet, revealing a Metal Bo-Staff (slightly smaller than the usual 6 feet, but a Bo none the less. Removing the belt, he revealed a pouch, and without a word opened it and dumped a bunch of Kunai onto the ground. He then flicked his hair up and took a dagger from a sheathe strapped to his back near his neck. Following, he bent down and rolled up his right pant leg to reveal a small knife strapped to them, presumably for throwing. He added this to the already growing pile of weapons. He then took off his jacket to reveal that there was nothing more on his body.
But then he turned to the dragon and snapped his fingers.
In an equally quiet and sufficient fashion, the dragon took off the back pack he was carrying, opened it up, and dumped it on the ground, revealing numerous cooking utensils, as well as about eight more clips (presumably half and half like the first eight) another pouch of Kunai, four sacks containing trail rations, four canteens of water, and a few other odds and ends to round out the camping gear.
Sutiiven glanced back over at Dame.
"Any questions?"
