Welcome to Gaia! ::

((Ok!))

Midnight gave this post to me over IM.

[[Okay, this is going to take too long to correct, so here's the chat transcript. And I'll tell her your post, Slifar. =) ]]

SQ™ - Zahir says (11:15 PM):
Five minutes passed. Then ten. Rose was petting the black hair on Zahir's head, trying to remember what his lycan formed looked like in detail. She had already scorned her servant - Brian - for hurting her pet. When it came down to it, Rose wasn't a cruel owner by any means, she just kept her pets confined too much in their cages. She had learned from that, and the cages were now slightly bigger,
SQ™ - Zahir says (11:17 PM):
but still too small by any normal, non-cruel means. Needles to say, as the horses rode on, a dangerous though crossed Rose's mind. "You did check to make sure nobody was following you?" She stated. "Of course," Brian replied, without any hesitation. Who was he to falter in his work?

Another minute passed. "I still don't see why you don't cage him," Brian scorned.
"I know he won't run away," Rose
SQ™ - Zahir says (11:19 PM):
shot back.

"It's been fifteen years..." Brian grumbled ot himself.

Zahir had only heard the 'fifteen years' bit, and was slightly disturbed they were speaking in english. That was unlike Levantou. With a groan, he opened his eyes. And upon the first real breath he sucked in, he almost choked, and shook. "It hurts to breathe?" It was a question for himself really. His head hurt, too. Then he re
SQ™ - Zahir says (11:21 PM):
membered where he was. "Your beast is awake," Brian grumbled, slapping the reigns on the horse's back for no particular reason other than boredom.

Zahir shoved himself up, out of Levantou's arms, to look around. He had the worst headache... "What the?" He glared to his previous owner. Who smiled. "You're awake. So fast."

Zahir scooted away from her ont he bench, his back hitting Brian's side. Up
SQ™ - Zahir says (11:24 PM):
on contact he turned to Brian and realised he was cornered. <"Why are you here?!"> Zahir shot to the old woman in Spanish.
"Why, because I love you," she answered in english.

There was a snicker of a laugh from the back. It sounded awkward. It was from a Hyena. It said something in a language Zahir couldn't understand. "Oh hush, you! He's not human!" Levantou shot to the caged animal.
Midnight-Glory says (11:25 PM):
Trinia still ran swiftly beside the wagon. She heard people talking in the front wagon. Something about Zahir and being a favorite. She had had enough. She turned and flitted past and jumped onto a connector in between the wagons. She shuffled down, balancing precariously on the thin shaft.
SQ™ - Zahir says (11:26 PM):
"But he's right. This beast is no use to you unless you get him to change," Brian growled.
"It takes time," Rose shot back.
"Time is something we don't have. We'll reach the reserve soon."

Just then, Zahir heard something, but couldn't place what. He turned back, to try and look through the wagon, but the back end had a curtain on it, so he couldn't see. There were, however, and overcrowded assortment of animals he'd never seen before, he could only guess where they were from.
"You're right," Rose gave in. One of the animals was staring at him. It looked like a huge rat with wings,
SQ™ - Zahir says (11:29 PM):
but it's head was like a fox's.

"Then you take the reigns," Brian stated coldly, handing them to her. Zahir was still preocucpied witht he flying fox thing.
That was until he started to have an uncontrollable seizure from being electrocuted. It was that damn collar from before...

"Look, Visitor, or whatever the hell your name is. You're under my control now, and the more you don't change into yo
SQ™ - Zahir says (11:29 PM):
ur beast form, the more pain you're going to be in."

Midnight-Glory says (11:32 PM):
Trinia heard the buzz of electricity and the thump of a flailing body. She had had enough. She tore down the curtain, not showing herself yet, but sat tense, waiting for the inevitable head to appear
SQ™ - Zahir says (11:32 PM):
As Trinia revealed herself to the animals inside, they began to bark, howl, squeak, whatever it was exotic animals did...
After a moment of the noise, Rose stopped the wagon, and tossed Zahir, who was still writhing, onto the ground with a grunt.
"You can't do this in the wagon, Brian. You're scaring the other animals."

Brian let go of the button on the remote, giving Zahir a moment of pain-free ecstasy, and jumped off the wagon near to the human-wannabe.

SQ™ - Zahir says (11:35 PM):
"You know where to meet us, just catch up when you break him, alright?" said rose, a look of discomfort on her face. Deep inside, she didn't like torturing Zahir, but she knew it had to be done.
"Yeah," Brian grunted. He put a foot gently on Zahir's chest, just to keep him from running off while Rose flicked the reigns and got the horses to go into a trot to get the caravan going again.

"If he ble
SQ™ - Zahir says (11:35 PM):
eds too much, you give him a bath before you bring him to the show," Rose shouted as she went off.
Midnight-Glory says (11:39 PM):
Trinia cursed silently and jumped off the wagon, slinking into the shadows. Brian acknowlaged Rose's comment and turned back to Zahir. That was when Trinia acted. She ran up at a breakneck speed and jumped on Brian's back, pushing him to the floor. She rolled him over and pinned him on his back. She changed just her top half, though her mouth was still full of fangs, making her voice seem gutteral
Midnight-Glory says (11:41 PM):
as she spoke softly and menacingly to Brian, "This is what you get for messing with friends of Trinia Bellos" the sharp taste of Blood filled her canid mouth as she tore his juggular out from his neck. after a few moments, he was dead. Trinia stood back panting slightly, rage flashing in her blackened eyes.
Midnight-Glory says (11:42 PM):
She turned to Zahir with a look of "What a complete and utter b*****d" in her eyes, followed by a "Y'alright Mate?"

SQ™ - Zahir says (11:44 PM):
Brian was taken down so easily by Trinia, Zahir felt like a total retarded child for not fighting for himself when Trinia could so easily do it. In fact, just that day, she had killed her own brother...

Zahir didn't say anything. He could've been in shock that his torturer's life ended so quickly and easily, or it could've been something else. He didn't know, couldn't figure it out. There was his
SQ™ - Zahir says (11:46 PM):
blood on Zahir's face. The lycan coughed for a moment at the realisation of such gore right there, turned onto his own side and coughed up some of his own blood because of the broken rib he'd gotten earlier. He supposed the throw to the ground from the wagon didn't necassarily help, either.
For a brief moment, he wondered if he healed as fast as other lycans, since he'd stayed in human form for so
SQ™ - Zahir says (11:47 PM):
long, or if it even made a difference. Eventually the coughing stopped, but his shaking didn't. He just laid on his back and closed his eyes, trying to breathe normally. Zahir didn't have any words.. He didn't even know what to think, for once in his life. Today was just... Too messed up.

Midnight-Glory says (11:50 PM):
Trinia winced slightly as Zahir coughed up some blood. She grabbed the collar of his shirt softly with her blood-stained muzzle and drug him into the soft uderbrush of the forest. She pushed his hands to his sides before sitting by his hand on the right side. He was pretty battered. One of
a difficult position to keep, but it was only for an instant. "You wouldn't happen to have to key for this wretched collar still on you. It's driving me insane." She shifted back, her black eyes looking worriedly on his form.

Me:

Zahir sighed the best he could after he was propped up with Trinia's help. He opened one green eye slowly, then the other.

His left hand shakily reached toward the silver wolf, then his right. Zahir had never been beaten before, this was still very new to him. The pain, that was. He eventually had both his hands on Trinia's collar, and pushed the releases simultaneously, unhooking the collar.

When it fell to the ground, so did his hands, and he decided to lie on his back again, breathing noisily, yet still lightly.
He forced his eyes closed. He never remembered anything like this. Is this what all the other lycans went through before they came to Trinia?

Zahir couldn't understand.. How they could ever live through this...


[[Midnight told me to remind you that wolves don't climb trees, but she'll respond on Friday. ]]

((lycans are larger than normal animals. It would be extremely had for them to manuver through the branches. And even though they are more adept at balancing, they still do not have enough balance to go though trees. Think of it this way: Have you ever seen a wolf in a tree? No, thought not. Ergo, a lycan wolf CAN NOT go into a tree. thusly ends my little rant.))

Trinia shook the think fur on her ruff out. She looked him over carefully. Pressing his hair back softly with her nose, she licked the blood off from his face. She turned her movements downward and cleaned the blood on his stomach off too. The wound on his side was already healing swiftly, which was a good sign. Then, she let him rest. She sat by his side, watching her surroundings warily for any sign of danger. It was true that she was very tired, and would have liked nothing better than a cool drink of water again, but she wouldn't leave Zahir's side.
