Welcome to Gaia! ::

Sherad nodded slightly "No, but I did meet one of those nice marines, such good people" he laughed nervously. He looked around and wished he had his pipe, he needed a puff about now.
Zera snorted, stifling a laugh with a yawn "Well, I wisssh you luck in your resssearch..." he ignored Sherad's glances at his bag, where the smoke was.
"I guess I'll be going to, must make sure the animals are alright..." the elf almost twitched as he stood "..which way was the forest again?" he asked Arya, a little confused in the dark.

Arya grimaced, she couldn't help it, she didn't like those marines at all. "Oh." She muttered, sighing as she watched the two of them, closing her eyes for a moment, holding out a hand. She reached through the light, trying to pick out where his pipe was. It took her a moment, but she had it, holding it out to Sherad. "Thats probably best." She chuckled a little, pointing for him. "That way. Wait a moment, here." Pointing a finger to the air above him, a small orb of light shone, able to shine within ten feet of him. "That should help."

Tilting her head, she sensed Tanya's approach, looking behind them. "Thanks Zera, I'm going to need it. Not like I have much info to work off of." She muttered with a heavy sigh, spreading her wings as she rose up into the air. "Tanya, you may either remain with them, or come with me. Though, it'll be boring where I'm at, I'm just doing more research." She called down, calling up an orb of light for herself.

Tanya raised an eyebrow at Arya as she looked up at her. She pulled the white feathers out and beat her own wings, flying into the air a short distance from her, "Mind identifying these for me?" she asked innocently, eying the angel's wings at the same time. She knew they weren't hers, but that didn't mean they weren't an Angel's...


((I'm still totally for a marine [specifically mathias] catching Tanya drinking blood lol))

((I agree with OMG, the blood drinking would be fun twisted ))

Brother Mathias knocked the young marine to the ground, overly bored with the challenge "Come young Brother Raphial, I am not your teacher for nothing" he grinned as he switched on his power fist "You were the best in your graduation unit no? Let us see your faith then"
Brother Raphial shook his head and stood, growling at his sparring master "Yes sir" he examind the sma;l sparring room for the uptenth time, looking for any advantage he could use. He threw a kick at Mathias' hip, and it hit its mark.
Brother mathias didn't budge "Haha! Good hit Brother, but nonetheless, you will have to try harder to knock me down!" his fist flashed, cracking across the young marines, chest. He flew back, smacking against the far wall with a thud. Brother Raphial groaned and slipped into unconciousness.
"His faith is strong Brother, but he is in need of more rigourous battle-conditioning..." the Apothocary Jerad stood at the door, shaking his head.
"Yes, he does..." Brother Mathias looked at the marine "The heathen xenos will be crushed under even his armored boots" a smile spread across the grim warrior-priest's face.

Sherad smiled and started toward the forest, the orb of light above him. He whistled and trotted to the woods at a lazy pace, keeping his mood light, even considering he could not smoke his special smoke.
"I wonder if you talk little guide..." the elf waved a hand in front of the orb, creating little shadow-puppets in it's light "..well, now this is fun" he smiled.

Sherad laughed as the sprite showed her true form "Well, one of the small faerie folk! What a surprise to see such a small cousin here!" he pocketed the smoke, a wide grin on his face "Thank you little one, a good puff sounds good right now" he stuffed a small bit of the weed in his pipe, lighting it with a match "So good of you to help me so much!" he smiled as they kept moving toward the wood "So what be your name little one?"

"Yes, and I am pleased to meet you Natasya" he smiled brightly, puffing on his pipe evenly. He inspected the little sprite, seeing she was of normal sprite build "Arya summoned you?" he asked, curiosity apparent. The small faeries were known to not like being bound in any way.


Brother Mathias left the sparring room, leaving the Apothocary and the young marine. He sighed and left the ship, making his way toward the secondary post, where squads 46-50 were setting up the temporary communications array.

Tanya hovered mid-air for a moment, but did not follow Arya, instead she eventually folded her wings, landing lightly on the ground. She could wait till morning for the results, it really didn't bother her that much, but she was curious.
She looked around, and finally decided to stay close by. Her wings opened again and she rose into the air where she could get a better look at her surroundings. She saw the marines and their ship, the buildings Kai had made, etc. She picked out a small secluded area a short distance away from everything else that was going on, with a shady tree. Tanya flew over there, her form high above cast a shadow on the ground as she passed the marines and the ship before landing in her little spot.


((I have a suggestion then, if you like the "blood idea"... after we get things going, we could do a little time skip, and say the humans have been here for a week or so, and with the marines having found nothing threatening Brother Mathias would [i would think] be annoyed by it... and then he catches Tanya! by maybe following her when she leaves, cause she'll do that a lot, or something, I don't know.... anyone like that plan?))

((I think we should connect that to the horrible accident that happened when the humans came the first time and caused the 'event'))
