Elm was glad to see another human being. He spoke. "I'm- I'm fine."
He gestured to the bonds constricting him. "Except for the whole being tied up thing."
His thoughts turned to his savior. A girl, maybe a little older than him, maybe not. Not carrying around dead sewer rats and didn't reek of death or beer, more like a hint of vanilla. And smoke.
His mind wandered off to his parents, still with the caravan, still riding, maybe crying because he left.
He cleared his mind when he saw Carteu pop into his vision. "Uh, could you help me out? My bag is still out on the road... and my half-harp's there with it...'

The red head quickly knelt beside him, seeing he was indeed tied up. She couldn't help but let a smirk play her lips. Poor guy, has to be saved by a girl. she thought to herself as she looked over the knots carefully. They where complex, his captor leaving barely any room left in the rope to untie him with.
"You sure don't look fine. " she stated, tilting her head to the side so her hair would fall over her shoulder, allowing her a better vantage to begin the great untie. "Who did this too you?" she asked her voice reaching higher notes in her question. Who would just tie up a stranger and leave him in the middle of the forest? After all the deaths that just tolled, it didn't add up. Must not be the same culprit.
Elizabeth quickly found the end of the ropes, setting her bag down beside her as she pushed it against the knot, causing the knot to begin to loosen up. She pulled and yanked for a good 5 minutes. Finally, the rope slacked, causing his hands to fall free. "Now, about this bag. Are you suggesting that I should leave you here tied up and retrieve your bag? Now that makes a lot of since." she said with a forced laugh, she didn't want to go back to the road, but it had to be done. This boy asked for her help, Elizabeth was far to good natured to deny him that. "Come on, we'll go and get your bag."
Right after her voice fell short, a small paw reached out of her own bag, the claws extracted outward, digging into Elizabeth's silken dress, causing the sixteen year old to scream out loud a high pitch whale. Her left hand quickly reaching for her thick hair, habit she had when frightened. "Oh my goodness, Cloe! You scared the dickens out of me!" the girl exclaimed in yet another high pitch voice, picking up the small orange tabby, blushing at her scream.

Max shuddered at the mere mention of a Necromancer. He himself could not use magic, but he knew of those who could. Necromancers were, in his opinion, the most twisted creatures he'd ever heard of. He hoped with all of his heart now that his love was no where near. he couldn't stand the thought of her beautiful features twisted by someone's control.
A scream caught his ears like a hook, as if his thoughts had made his joined fear and hope come true, and brought his love to him. He glanced to Trinity, hoping his expression would serve as his explanation, and ran into the forest towards the scream.

"I'm going to be nice and pretend I didn't hear that." said Elm, hopping lithly to his feet.
She was a little older than him, he thought, but they were almost eye-to-eye. He smiled a bit at the realization. It was bad enough she had that 'motherly' tone.

Trinity needed no words to figure out what he was thinking. She goes after him in case if he needed help. She wasn't in good shape for battle but she may be of some help.
She unsheathed her sword and readied her shield as she follows Max into possible danger.

The sixteen year old gave a small, nervous giggle. "You pretend my cat didn't just scare me, and I'll pretend you wasn't the damsel in distress." she spoke, a wink in her voice as she picked up her bag and her cat, placing the kitten back, safely ontop of her clothes. Well nice to know my clothes are making a good bed. she thought to herself, closing the bag, but leaving just enough room at the top for the kitten to poke her head out when she so desired.
"Well, do you remember your way through here? And about where and which road you left your bag at?" she asked finally, turning to look at the boy who was more or less her size. Elizabeth smiled, she never been alone with a boy before, don't see what the fuss is about. she thought to herself briefly, she felt nothing more to this boy then she felt by hanging around her few girl friends.
At the thought of friendship in the past, her chest tightened with the grief she was holding back from her destroyed city. Her parents and friends where gone now, Elizabeth doubted anyone had lived through that attack. I don't understand why we where attacked! Why did this happen!? she screamed in the back of her mind, wanting so badly to hit something, but that wasn't the lady like thing to do. No, she just forced a smile back on her perfect face yet again, waiting for the boy she had to untie to reply.

Max couldn't think of anything else as he ran through the forest, not even the branches whipping at his face and arms. He could soon see a female form up ahead, it seemed to be speaking to someone obscured by the trees. That didn't matter though, the only thing that mattered was the figure he saw, the same one that had been running through his mind almost constantly for the past month.
As he got closer, however, he started to notice differences. He saw that her hair was a different color, as was her skin. When he got close enough to see her face he realized how stupid he'd been. It wasn't her, though she'd sounded so similar. He stopped running, still a few yards away from the girl, and what he now saw a a boy, a little younger than himself. He also noticed that Trinity had followed him and pulled her sword, and realized that he'd made her think there was trouble.
"I heard a scream, what was it?" He asked, seeing that neither of them appeared to be in trouble. His disappointment showed on his face, even though he tried to hide it.

Elizabeth quickly turned on her heels, hearing the sound of foot fall crunching the forest floor. Her blue eyes quickly flashed to white, revealing more about herself then she had wished. She extended her hand outward, a bright white glow engulfing her entire hand in blinding white light.
"Who are you?" her voice boomed as she looked from the new pair that had came crashing through the woods like a bunch of wild animals. One, who she already recognized as to be Trinity. She didn't understand why the girl was here, she saw everyone in her town destroyed. She never really knew Trinity, just seen her around, and knew of her. So it did strike her odd. Though, she did seem injured.
"Trinity, is this boy with you?" her voice asked in a stern note, her glowing hand still aimed at the boy, the wind caused from her powers tossing her red tresses behind her in a mess of silken red tresses. Her eyes however, falling back to their blue shade, still holding some sort of white glow to them.

When her eyes returned to their natural color Trinity was able to some what recognize her. She was someone she new back in her home town, "Elizabeth is it? Yes, he's with me. You suvived the attack, are you alright? I thought everyone was dead."
After observing no danger,Trinity sheeths her sword and puts her sheild on her back.

Max had raised his hands when Elizabeth aimed her magic at him, showing that his only weapon was the bow on his back. "My name is Max, I mean no harm." He relaxed when Trinity vouched for him and the girl lowered her hand, but he made a mental note to try not to sneak up on her again.
He then turned his attention to the younger boy, noticing the lengths of rope near him. "What about you? What's your name?"

Damion sighed as he walked through the seeign a group of people, smirking he hid behind a large object, trying to not make to make any noise as he watched them. Seeing the boy he had tied up he grimaced thinking, how did he get out of that....damn it i forgot to put the gag tighter!
Then he looked over the group more and saw Trinity.....he huckled evily to hmself as he twirled a dagger on his finger. Looking around once more he spotted the last two people standing there, he didnt know who they were but knew that all three of them were going to protect trinity once they found out about him.

Elm backed up at the appearance of the pair. "Great Galden!"
He tried to blend in with the bark, but decided to use this to his advantage. "Uh, did anyone see a bag and a leather case about... this size?" He gestured with his hands.
((OH yeah, now you show up.))

(Sorry got in trouble and got comp taken away "^^ )
Damion watched as the boy he tied up back into a tree. Thinking he kneeled down and took a handful of dirt and smelled it, making sure not to get any in his nose he put his other hand over.
Catching the scent he could know what the other peoples names were...Elizabeth...Trinity of course...Elm...and Max.
He then eavesdropped on his conversation.
Ha...the boy doesnt know i have his bag and leather case
He looked to his side and smiled lightly and sat on it. Interwining his fingers he leaned back on a tree and watched the group from afar.

"Great Galden!" was the next thing she heard, something she had never heard before. She turned, looking at the boy who she had rescued. Shaking her head. "Galden, really?" she asked with slight sarcasm, turning her attention back to Trinity and her tag-a-long, soon to be known as Max. "Well, like wise to you ms. Trinity. I'm glad to see I was wrong " she said with a polite bow to her head.
"As to the other two of you, I'm Elizabeth." she said with a warming smile. She brushing the red silken locks out of her face, sighing once again at the shambled look she must be holding now. " At the formal introduction, the girls attention was suddenly side tracked by the tug of a unknown energy, one relating to death. Her eyes darting to the direction of the dark energy. Her blues eyes glowing a soft white once again, feeling threatened.
"Don't ask me how I know this. But something is still out here." she said flatly, looking in the direction she felt the tugs (The direction Damion is in) She frowned, allowing the holy white light to engulf her hand in a fiery passion yet again. Turning fully to face the direction it was coming from, she didn't want to be blind sided if the host of the energy decided to attack, she wanted to be ready. She didn't make it out of the city to be killed in the forest.
"As to your bag, it's obvious I saw it not." she said flatly, a bit more serious then her first words in the new conversation. She hated being eavesdropped on, most of all by something as dark and twisted as what she was feeling right about now.

Damion then pulled himself away from eaves dropping, he knew someone could hear him. Sneering he got up and grabbed the boys sack and drop kicked it in the direction the small party was before running off into the woods.
Lifting his hands to his sides into the open air he ran as he summoned more than 50 skeletons that were glowing with green flames.
That was fun he thought.
He let out a evil laughter that could be heard for miles, but no one knew what direction it was coming from.
