((Oh, yeah, Erik's mind was wandering))
Erik jumped when he heard Zack talking to him-or, to be exact, yelling at him. "What happened!?" Zack shouted at him. "So, you weren't there?" Zack shook his head. "Very well. The mental elemental tried sneaking into my head, and then I snapped. I know that I shouldn't have, but I let my emotions get the better of me. Also, if she did get into my head, she would drive herself insane. My memories detail a dark past...there's a lot of blood on my hands, and not just demon blood. I've had to kill so many people...I have all this power. And yet, I couldn't save them. I had to kill them. They followed the Hellspawn Empire, and they tried to kill me. So I had to kill them. I...I just didn't want her to see what I've done." Erik started to cry as he spoke the last sentence. "I don't want anyone to know the truth of what I've done. Zack, promise me that you will not breath a word of this to anyone."

Zack nodded. "Your secret's safe with me," he said. He knew that if Arabella hacked his mind, that promise would be screwed but, he could try. He saw the man crying and wanted to comfort the man, but also didn't wanna look gay. Zack paced his hand on Erik's shoulder, "Dude we all have a screwed up past, just relax. We judge you based on the present you, not your past," he tried to reassure Erik. With the demon spawn appearing from nowhere, he hoped Erik would pull it together soon. He pulled a sword from the ground, putting some iron ore and some other metals along with the designs he created upon it. He swung the sword through the air, it was perfect.  "Alright," he said as he sliced through two demons.

I’m an idiot! She thought to ones self; that was all she really could think as she ran through the darkness, her heart pounding from underneath her rib cage as if it were to break through it at any given moment, shattering her bones. Her legs moved quickly and her eyes strained through the darkness trying her hardest to avoid smacking into a tree or tripping over the uneven ground. Hopefully the woodland would end soon and she would come out at some kind of civilization where she could get some help, she did not dare look back, she wondered if he was even still following her. There was no noise of footsteps behind her, it sounded like she was alone. She began to slow down until she was just walking fast and then she came to stop, she did a 360 degree turn. I lost him all she could hear was her own heavy breathing, her grip tightened at the hilt of her sword and she got a little panicky where the hell am I?
Earlier in the day Rudolph had decided to sneak from her mansion so that she could walk around freely without bodyguards…now the biggest mistake she had ever made. Some strange man had began to follow her around town, stupidly Rudolph hurried off out to where there weren’t people in hopes that maybe this man wasn’t following her…but he was and then she began to run and ended up in some big woodland with some weirdo pervert chasing her…well at least that’s what she thought.
She was a very fast runner; he had not expected her to be able to run from him at such a pace, he did well to keep up. This girl could be the key to unlocking many of the secrets that he did not know, was she even aware of what she was? A child of the elements? He saw that she began to slow down and he also began to slow down too, he kept his footsteps in time with hers so that she was not to hear him and then she stopped. He could see her silhouette as she turned in the darkness; she was unaware of his presence. He waited only a few moments and then charged at her, he grabber her hair that was tied up in a ponytail and stotted her forehead against a tree, she gave a loud screech and then he felt a sharp pain as he sword came back and grazed his side cutting through his clothing. The girl span round as he staggered backwards.
“Leave me alone!” she shouted in anger “I am the daughter of Lord Morgenstern! If you harm me you will be hung I can assure you sir!” her voice high pitched and broken.
“I have no intentions of harming you girl” he spat back at her as he held his side “Not yet anyway” he gave a shrug.
Rudolph glanced around and then through the trees she saw the orange glow of a fire, maybe there were people. She felt his cold hand grab her arm, she yelped out in fright and swung her blade in his direction for it to be knocked out of her hand, her feet were swiped from beneath her by his leg and still gripping her arm he gently let her fall to the ground, as she lay on the soggy dirt ground she felt his foot on her stomach and the tip of his blade against her cheek just beneath her eye. His tall figure looming over her, what is he going to do!?
“Please!” she cried “Let me go, I can pay you…my father is a very wealthy man, no one need know of you…just please don’t kill me!!” her body shook as she wailed frantically.
“Calm down!” Raphael knelt down so that now his knee rested on her stomach holding her down and he brought his blade away from her face “I am not going to hurt you” he explained “but you must come with me…you are a child of the elements!” he hissed.
“How do you know this!?” she exclaimed “You cannot!” she flailed her arms punching and scratching the stranger “You are a hunter!” she bellowed “You hunt children of the elements! I am no fool!” right from the pits of her being she let out the most blood curdling, ear shattering scream in hope that someone, somewhere heard her.

Lonesome looked at the newcomer as she spoke, all of a sudden he heard a scream and was running in the direction it came from with his sword in his hand. Bursting through some trees he saw a man holding a girl down. "You should probably let her go now, unless of course you would rather me remove your head from your shoulders." he said in a low tone.

Jumping to her feet when a loud scream echoed through the forest she grabbed her staff her eyes searching for the direction it came from. When the demon who she had yet to get his name run into the trees she followed close behind his heels. She may be apposed to fighting but one thing she was even more against was the injuring of those who where innocent. When she saw a girl pinned down to the ground by a large man this infuriated her. She did not say a word just readied herself to help fight the man if needed and get the girl free.

Erik heard someone screaming from a far off place. "Great. Now what the ******** is happening? A Hellspawn camp, and now this. God, why do you hate me?" With a sigh, he drew his sword and raced off, only to find Lonesome was standing there. "G'day, mate. Now, you there," Erik said, pointing his sword at the unknown male,"Kindly release the lady, and I'll kindly consider not chopping you in half." That was when he noticed Aurora standing there. "Please, do not get yourself involved. I have no doubt that no matter who this person is, Zack, Lonesome and I will be able to defeat him without breaking a sweat."

Her eyes shifted to behind the man holding the woman down. Aurora recognized the man who burst through the trees as the one who stormed off earlier. Gritting her teeth with he spoke to her in such a degrading manner she clinched her staff tightly wanting to bash him upside the head with it. "Why is it that when their is a fight to be had the big bad men are the ones who take care of it, while the women must watch and cheer them on?" In her voice was clear frustration and anger. Trying to keep herself calm as best she could but she was just to annoyed. These people didn't know who she was and she wanted to keep it that way. She still couldn't help but let a little static electricity build up which could be felt in the air.

Atrum barely felt the little pinch of Mizuje taking a bit of blood from his arm. At hearing a scream, Atrum found his tired legs carrying him to the source. Aurora was making the hair on his neck stand on end again, but that was the last thing on his mind. Whoever had screamed was in alot of trouble.
He arrived not long after Erik and Lonesome, and at the same time as Aurora. He looked toward the man that was holding the girl down without something something to say. Hey, Erik and Lonesome seemed to have things covered. With a stream of light now excited and ready to be commanded, Atrum hushed it and calmed it into a dull glow. With two swordman and Aurora's staff that he was sure could do something, he'd only attack if needed.

Raphael got to his feet; he stood as if not really ready for a fight. "This is not how it looks" he said shaking his head "She can handle herself, she is no mere mortal...these matters do not involve you boy" he snarled, he saw Rudolph attempt to get back up to her feet and so he stamped her down with his foot on her right shoulder. Raphael heard the rustling of branches and leaves and footsteps trudge quickly through the mud from different directions and came to the realization that he was surrounded and out numbered.
"Thank God!" Rudolph gasped "Please!" she cried "Don't leave me here with him! he's crazy...do not believe a word he says" she shouted to the people stood close by, she was scared Raphael would talk his way out of it...tell them of how she was an elemental and these people too would most likely turn on her.
Raphael turned to the girl who had just arrived, she had been told not to get involved by one of the boys "The women...especially one like yourself" he started with a playful smile "certainly should not stand by and cheer these halfwits on...I would have you fight by my side, I would respect you" he watched her for a few moments and saw that there was something not right about her...electricity, he felt it, the crackle of the static. He pulled his foot from Rudolphs shoulder and brought his sword up "You are an elemental" he then looked around himself in disbelief "You all are...are you not?" but before they got a chance to answer him he realized he was at a great disadvantage here...if they had all been mortals he would of been fine, but facing up to a few elementals at the same time would not do him good. He brought his sword up high and then jabbed it into the soil. Fire burst from the ground and created a ring of fire around them, it felt like a little explosion. He then bent low dragging Rudolph to her feet and brought his blade to her throat I can not lose her!
Rudolph cried out as the force of the spell made the ground below her shake, the fierce flames dancing as they trapped her and Raphael within them "Help me!" she cried hoping that none of the people who had came to her rescue had been harmed by the fire.

Zack was standing beside Erik and heard the scream. He followed Erik to the source and saw the flames. This guy made it too easy, Zack being of space could just teleport her, but he needed reassurance.
James finally waled up to the blazing flames and the man with the girl. "Sorry I arrived so late," he apologized to the rest of the elementals and then saw Zack. He knew by the look on the man, the girl's, and Zack's face that this was a hostage situation. He held to his time powers and looked at Zack.
Zack and James came to an unspoken understanding really fast for two people who weren't related. James froze time leaving himself and Zack as the only two that could move, and Zack used his powers to teleport the girl away from the frozen man. James released time to move as it usually did and the girl that was previously a hostage stood beside Zack.
Zack looked at the man carefully, "We won't let you hurt a sister of ours," he declared. "However, if you state the place of which you live, I will send you back where you came," he stated, almost threateningly.
((it ROCKS being two elementals.))

"Silence! Your snake tongue will not get you out of this. Just release this girl, there is no need for blood shed." Her words where very calm given the situation she only hoped that the man could be reasoned with. All hopes of that where crushed when he drew his sword and proclaimed her as an elemental.
When fire surrounded them only inches away from her foot she moved it to keep from getting burned. "No do not hurt her! Please be rational. Your clearly out numbered just let her go and be on your way." She tried reasoning with the man again but she had a feeling it would not work. He seemed hell bent on taking this girl with him and she feared they would have one hell of a fight to stop him.
When yet another showed up to save this girl she wondered if it would help to sway the man into letting her go. Blinking she looked around confused when in the flash of a second the woman was no longer in the mans arms. Looking towed the boy as he spoke she hopped the man would take his offer. He was clearly out numbered and with several of them being elementals he would be foolish not to.

"What!?" Rudolph went from being from one side of the flames to the other looking through them at the man who had tried to take her away, she felt that she was stood right beside a boy, she turned to him. Her eyes reddened and sore from all of the tears and her face wet "Thank you" she whispered.
Within the blink of an eye what he had been hunting for so long was out of his reach and she stood now with the other elementals. "I wasn't going to hurt her!" he snarled "I want answers!" he stepped through the flames he had created and they vanquished as he did so "You all will bring the end of the world upon us" he said quietly ignoring the questioning or shouting from any of them "Selfish...all of you, young and naive fools with too much power within to handle" he stood amongst them in awe almost at them...the energy he felt from them was unreal.

He watched the situation unfold as he stood ready to strike the man down. Once again Eric seemed overconfident, he had no idea what the person could and yet he told the newomer to not get involved. He shifted his eyes towards the other elementals who had arrived. Atrum, the time elemental, the other who had accompanied Eric. All of a sudden the man claimed they were elementals and activated some sort of spell. Just as he was about to slice the man's head off with some wind the girl was gone.
Looking around he saw she was with the elemental that was with Eric. Lonesome sheathed his sword the moment he knew the girl was out of the grasp of the man, but still kept his wind at the ready. "If you would like answers you should try asking a question." he said as the man walked closer to them.

"Well" Raphael began as he turned to face the voice that addressed him "Demon" he spat as his eyes fell upon the horns he had "Have any of you read of the prophecies that have been written about you? have any of you heard of the crossing of the sun and moon?" he waited for a response and as he did his eyes wandered past the people who surrounded him. Any of these would do, the power from any one of them would be enough for my revenge

Listening to the man speak she frowned when he reacted to Lonesome in such a way. She despised racist. She herself had been cast out and looked down upon for being an elf. Prophecies about us? Before today she hadn't even heard of the elementals. She always saw her abilities as a curse. Everyone she loved or cared for was dead because of her. She couldn't even make friends for fear of electrocuting the. Being in solitude so long had caused her to lose touch of everything.
"It doesn't matter what has been written it doesn't give you the right to treat anyone in this manner." Relaxing her defensive stance she pulled her staff close to her body. If the man did decide to attack she really didn't need her staff to fight. Her elemental powers were much faster anyways and far more effective.
