Welcome to Gaia! ::

Lalita sighed. Trickery wasn't one of her favorite things ever, but it was something she believed she had to use every now and then. She walked around until she could find a maple leaf, an essential item for her spell. She threw it on the ground along with a few powered things. With her index finger she mixed everything together on the leaf. "Okaya unum uin" she whispered. A blue flame engulfed the ingredients and she threw the beans in. "Asuru mei uin" she whispered. The leaf shivered and turned smooth and glossy. Images with a light blue background appeared on the surface of the leaf. Jenneth... Allora... Thanatos... The image shifted, making it look sinister. Ebryn... Juan...
Lalita sighed. "That couldn't have worked... Who are those people? What the hell do they have to do with my destiny?!" She crossed her arms and began to think of the components she used in her spell. "I didn't miss anything!" She frowned and looked at the ashes that had been the leaf. "I wonder where I went wrong?!"
She gave the ashes a menacing look and walked off. "Destiny, my ...." she muttered, but her words were muffled by the sound of a near-by river.
Cursing all the way, she went to the river, sat down on a rock and stuck her feet in the water. "Stupid worthless spell..." she muttered, oblivious to anything and anyone around her.

"You don't get nothing from practicing for, say, fifteen years."

'You're right... I guess...' Ebryn said with a whispering voice. I would have killed you if I had a good weapon instead of this useless wooden stick. She couldn't stand people like that...that.. woman... Another arrogant Light-person. She had never met a friendly one. As if being one of the light side means that you have to look down other people. Ebryn grimaced and looked around her. She saw that there were a lot of people near the river. She was surprised because she didn't notice them when she was hiding in the bushes. Suddenly she shivered. It felt like someone was watching her or.. maybe it was just the cold wind.

"Calla uin daesc..."

Jenneth leaned down and picked up the two parts of the sheath/staff and replaced her swords into it. She reconnected the two halves and leaned against it once more. Seeing the slightly blurred grimace on the newcomer's face, Jen sighed.

"I'm sorry if I offended you. It's just that darkness and light don't mix well. The Dark One-" She halted herself. Why was she appologizing to this Dark-sider? Why even bother with her? Why not kill her?

Jen wasn't that type of person. She had one enemy, and that was the Dark One, not this poorly armed woman.

"-murdered my mother when I was young," she finished in a whisper soft voice, just loud enough to hear. Jenneth found her composure again and finished firmly.

"I have one purpose, and that is Calla uin daesc of the Dark One!" With that, Jen spun on her heel, accidentally whacking her marked tree with her wooden stave, creating a cracking noise. She turned her head one last time, a semi-gentle, semi-fierce look in her eyes.

I don't need any more blood on me. Once is enough. Jen gave the boy one more look before starting back the way she came. The wind picked up and the distant thunder shook the ground.

Crap.




OOC: That's alright.

Juan is idle.
Allora bowed also, thinking it might be a custom in her country or town and didn't want to be rude.
"My name is Allora, Miss Lalita." she said standing up. "And I'm sorry about the mishap of your spell. I, myself, do a little magic of my own. Even though most of it is quite small, it is very powerful. It is good that you are aligned with the Light, because I would not have known what I would have done to you." she said. She looked around, knowing that that boy could be coming any minute. She sensed that he has a power that could destroy them all on a whim.

Juan flew swiftly down the river. He sensed three Lights and one Dark and that person, or whatever it (or he or she) is, might need help. He flew right past Lalita and Allora and landed right next to Ebryn.
"Hello, Miss. I fear that you may have been in trouble when I sensed that you were here with three Light-Siders." he said gestering to Jenneth, Lalita, and Allora. "How could I be of assistance?" he asked.
Allora opened her to say more, but was stopped when the boy that was in the air earlier. He landed next to a girl that was staring at them and started talking in an overly loud, obnoxios voice. She walked over there and leaned in her staff.
"And what are you going to do about it?" she asked, her usual sing-songy, bell-like voice icy cold as she spoke to the boy. "You couldn't do a thing." she continued, prompting him to use his power so she could get a good sample.

((Allora and Lalita are having a conversation after Allora sees her there in the water. Then, my Darkness character, Juan, is coming into the scene and talking to the characters for the first time since I started posting. Allora, the elf, is aligned with the light and came to Jenneth's, Sapphirianna, and Ebryn, Giant Mushroom's, aid. She really wanted to get a sample of his power, which is to make an acid rain stun his enemies. I can explain that because they are my characters, I'm not sure about everyone elses. (: ))
