Welcome to Gaia! ::

Kneeling beside Ahlena, Thalia placed the pearl at Eric's feet. "For you." Reaching out a hand, Thalia began petting Kara, delighting in the click/whistles sounds the shadow creature made. It was something she'd never heard before, which fascinated her. Humming softly, she studied the two with knowing eyes, knowing exactly how this conversation would end.

Zai Hana had finished collecting different plants she wanted for poisons, and had put them in a black bag. Walking silently through the forest, a long dark grey coat with a hood on over her, which up her neon dread locks and her typical neon cyber clothing completely. With her coat, combat books, and gas mask, she looked almost like something apolocalyptic. Stopping, Zai Hana heard voices. Two, or three people? Walking quickly and silently towards them, she held her hands tightly around the bag, wearing in fingerless leather gloves. Seeing Salazar, she paused in the distance and stepped instantly behind a tree. Her fingers dug into the old rotting bark of the ancient tree. I remember him, yeah.... made that claw for him 'while ago.... When I broke 'em out of the crazy house. Her white and black eyes, kohl lined, shifted up the tree and she saw a figure sitting up there, watching them. She also saw the glent of a revolver. Her eyes moved back down to them. Zai knew they could not see him, if it has not been for her eyes, she could not of seen him in that darkness and thick of brush. Still, she was a little suprized that none of them had realized he was there. If I move, he would see me... yeah, though it wouldn't matter, he wouldn't move 'cause he is here to kill 'em. Best wait and see how plays out, yeah...

Salazar scoffed. "It all boils down to revenge Sam. I honestly feel like I'm fighting a war for Kirai's own personal vendetta. Still, I put up with it for some odd reason."

"Great now there is another one, this is ridiculous." Seth thought as he watched the lot of them. "They seem to notice me too, the women at least. Dammit I have to work on that cloaking spell." He spun the revolver a few times and holstered it. "To hell with it, I'm going down." With that being said he jumped from the branch he was on and made his way down to where Salazar was sitting. He shook the leafs out of his hair and said "Hello Salazar."

Salazar was shocked for a moment and then grinned. "Hello Seth, or do you still go by Kaiser."

"I prefer Kaiser, Do you go by Salazar or deranged psychopath?" Seth said offering his hand for Salazar to shake.

"Both" Salazar said giving out a laugh of pleasure. "It's good to see you, you old b*****d." He finished as he shook Seth's hand. "Sam! Meet Seth, er I mean Kaiser, he is a very very old friend of mine."

"I am aware of that fact. I wasn't expecting so many people. Oh and by way Zai is about 30 or so meters that way." Kaiser said pointing back to where he had been standing. "Samantha, how about you go and greet her while me and Salazar take a small walk. So that me and him can catch up."

"Sounds like a good idea to me, do you mind Sam? We'll be right back."

Zai Hana smirked, although it was hidden by her mask. "Samantha, nice ta see ya, yeah..." Her hooded grey figure took a few steps towards them, the wind blew off her hood and revealed her long flowing neon dreads which flowed down to her waist, as well as her stark contrasting eyes and her gas mask. Her painted poison nails flicked against each other. "It's nice, but ya might wanna know...." Zai pointed, "That guy there has a revolver." She shrugged, "Nice ta see Salazar's claw's still nice, not much 'gainst a bullet, ya know?"

Zai looked to her an nodded, "Hey there."

Footsteps, light and swift, hustled through the forest, as well as some grunting noises. At one point there was a curse and a scream, two figures appearing out of the shadows. One a man with a frustrated expression, the other a woman trying to escape his hold while his other hand was pressed firm to her mouth. "Will you just shut up, already? It'll be over soon." He squeezed her hard enough that she stopped struggling, too busy trying to breathe now. When he came to an empty patch he stopped, gripping her. "I know you can hear me, Dragon. I summon you, and I bring a sacrifice." She screamed against his hand and he squeezed her harder.

Lys felt tears in the corners of her eyes, her heart hammering. Her brother, her big brother, truly was a b*****d.
