Welcome to Gaia! ::

As Belladonna and Sebastian travelled back towards the camp they kept up a light banter. Out of anyone in their pack he easily knew her the best. He'd only been born one breeding year before her and they were considered to be in the same age group. They had been trained, and still trained, together; they were in the same general feeding rank; all of their companions were the same - they often seemed to be two halves of the exact same creature. Sebastian was as light when he hunted as Belladonna was dark. The only, and the key, difference between the two was the fact that, despite her younger age, Belladonna was considered to have a much higher rank in the pack. It had become obvious at a young age that Belladonna was to be groomed to be the pack leader. Her hunting prowess was known througout the feral lands.

There was one large flaw in this great plan for her however, she had absolutely no intention of ever becoming the pack leader. It was a position of power that would require her to live permanently in her hunting rage, something she never wanted to happen. Some ferals gave in entirely to their hunting instincts, never releasing the more vicious personality, allowing it to rule them till they are killed, either on a hunt by the prey or by another feral (in their own pack, or a different one). These ferals were the only ones who made successful leaders and Belladonna refused to submit to her dark side.

Eventually the pair reached the camp and passed on their information to the elders. With that done, they went back to their lodge and grabbed a bite to eat. They had barely put down their licked clean eating knives when one of the elders entered the lodge. Immediately all the subordinate ferals assumed a submissive stance. If one of them hadn't, it would have been seen as a direct challenge to the elder. The elder swung is long axe off his back and rested it on the ground, blade down - the signal to release the posture.

"Belladonna," he growled in a voice that could shatter the nerves of even the most courageous beings; however as the elder was not being threatening, most of the younger ferals were able to shake it off. Belladonna stepped forward in response to the summons.

"We acknowledge the information you provided. You will return to keep a watch at the location. You will not attempt to enter the portal - that is what we have decided it is. And, and this is a direct order, you WILL destroy utterly anything that comes through from the other side," the elder continued and Belladonna merely inclined her head in acceptance. Nothing else was required from her. The elder had done exactly what she had expected, the same thing they always did when something new presented itself. Eventually they may venture through the portal, but it was unlikely. Most likely, someone would be assigned a permanent patrol at the location. After she collected some supplies she said a quick farewell to her brother and headed off at a comfortable lope back towards where she'd seen the new portal.

((Woah!! you people do type fast! God i'm so jealous lol XD))

Violet merely twitched a little as Holly showed up. Until both her and Dream set of the light. It was so sudden Violet screamed, the pitch almost high enough to break glass. Instantly she backed away, covering her eyes. She barely had time to see Liam before she'd been blinded. Even now she could barely make out the shadows of the others.

Miu was shocked when Holly appeared, "hi" she said. She watched silently as they discused a plan to stop the fallen angel. 'Maybe I can help... I can shapeshift after all' When the light shown, Miu didn't mind she enjoyed it, forgetting about the demon. "Are you alright?" she asked running over to the demon, "Hey, maybe I can help, anything you would like me to shapeshift into?"

"No problem." He was actually just about to suggest sunglasses himself; he had forgotton she already had them. "And I'm really sorry. Next time, I'll let you know. For now, I'd keep them on."

He looked at Miu. "I don't really think you can help her much, she's more of the soloist type. Which isn't bad, just saying."

He smiled. "True. Just keep them on, then, and always expect it."

(OOC: Mine's shorter. Nothing much to say, really.)

Violet nodded, then shivered a little. Slowly she turned her head, large emerald eyes searching around her. Something was nearby, something she recognised but couldn't place. Turning to Dream her fixed grin grew a little smaller.
"Do you know what that is?" she asked, refering to the strange feeling. It was almost like a fog, surronding her until everything seemed hazy. Violet shook her head, trying to get rid of it but it wasn't going away. The oddest part was, she didn't want it to.

Dream looked at her; he couldn't feel anything. Was it the darkness? It couldn't be, he'd feel it too. Then what could it be? "I don't know... I can't feel it at all. What's it feel like? Maybe I'll recognise the feeling from somewhere."
