Welcome to Gaia! ::

Kealani floated in mid air above the pond. Her wings keeping her steady as she dipped her hind feet in the pond below. She had now learned how to fully utilize her wings. But she all her concentration now was on the stars. Oh how they glowed with her color. As if saing she belonged with them. Which was fine with her. Seeing as the harsh sun treated her with hateful rays of pain.

Marishka stalked out from behind a tree and with one graceful and quick movement was in the air. She could see the moon's rays glittering and waving on the pond and she flew in its direction. The moonlight called to her, as did the forest on the other side, which would surely have something to prey on. Halfway across she was distracted by something else reflecting the moon's rays. It was a white figure, one she had seen before. She flew close, in another quick movement and was before her. "We meet again, my little pretty." She smiled somewhat lustfully. This girl did have lovely warm blood, and she could see it pulsing beneath her smooth white skin and fur.

Lani had heard the wind take a weird turn and had noticed the figure flying twords her. When Marishka stoped in front of her something changed in her. Her heart beat faster and for one slow moment her blood pulced hot within her veins. A look crossed her eyes of want and danger. The kind of danger one has while enjoying a patienete night in bed. In a quick flash it was gone and her eyes went back to her normal soft angelic gaze. "Hello there friend. What bringsw you around this part of the land?" A soft smile gracing her lips.

Marishka did not miss the quickening of her pulse or the inviting smell of her blood. She wondered if perhaps her appearance had frightened Lani. But she seemed to be back to a friendly expression almost immediately. "Searching for...sustenance. Enjoying the moonlight. What about yourself. Also enjoying the sky I see?"

Lani gave a slight chuckle. "I love the way you talk. Its so... refreshing. Though I seem to talk to so few theese days." She gave a quiet sigh. "My own brother seems to rather stay in his cave now a days." Her smile once again crept to her lips. "But I'd rather enjoy the night sky then stay in a damp cave." A breath before she started talking again "Yes, the moon is rather inviting tonight. I'm almost tempted to fly to it." She giggled "But I guess that wouldnt be the brightest idea." She winked "THough I've never been known to like anything really bright."

Marishka tilted her head to the side as she listened to the girl talk. Interesting girl, she definitely didn't appear to be afraid of her at all. "Refreshing? Is it really?" Marishka chuckled as she flapped her wings against the night air. "Caves are nice for daytime, I have one myself. Perhaps your brothers cave is not far from mine?" She lowered herself to the bank to rest her wings as she said, "I don't think you could reach the moon. It's a nice thought though."

Lani flutered softly down to rest next to Mariska. A toes reach away from the tiny waves that broke on the shore. She smiled as the thought of the moon took over her thoughts for a moment. How it helped the water move. Lani shook her head clear of the moon so she could listen to Marishka. "It might be. I'm not exactly sure how to get to his cave. When I do go, my wings usually take me while my thoughts wander." She smilled and looked at her midnight companign. "I find it nice to just let your wings guid you once in a while. I've found some rather nice clearings that way." Her laugh rang out "Not that I could find them again." "Where is your cave?"

Marishka gazed out over the pond and across the river. "In the mountains across the Great River. There is a small forest near by, but the forest on this side of the continent is much more full and lively." Her lips pulled up at the corners as she said, "Where do you live, my lovely?" Marishka thought she ought to ask her name, for she could not remember it.

Lani nodded to the huge mansion across the lake "There, in the basement. I have my own room. I've even added onto it by digging into the dirt." She gave a vixenly smile "Not that any one else knows, but I've added quite a lot to that room" A soft chuckle again vibrated her neck gently. She sruged a little. "Shippo knows, but I dont think she knows how extravigent I got. I even made my own in door little watering hole that I can bathe in. Or escape if I decide I have the lung capacity to risk it." giving a side glance to Mariska. "Is it nice in your cave?"

Marishka looked at the mansion. "It looks extravagant. I'm curious to know what this extra room of yours is like." She gave a smile of her own and stared back out across the pond. "It's dark, and nice for sleeping."

Lani looked over to her. "Well, Shippo wouldnt want any visitors, so we'd have to go through the lake entrance. But I'm felling adventurous, so mamy just this once I could dissobey her." "You feel up to it? Its nice and warm there. You could even sleep in my bed if you wanted. Its a dwn comfeter so its very snuggly."

Marishka tilted her head and raised an eyebrow at her. "You want me to come over?" marishka stretched her wings as she thought about it. "Perhaps. Is it very dark in your room?" She looked at Lani and then remembered something about her. "You don't like the sunlight either, do you?" Marishka leaned close to her and sniffed. If she could get Lani in an enclosed space, perhaps she would let her drink her blood again. "You smell...very nice," she added with a seductive grin.

Lani gave a slight nod "I think I wouldlike it if you did. I havent really met someone like you. ....You...intrigue me." "Well, its not terribly dark. I have some light strands hung in my room but they are set to low so it doesnt ruin my night vission." She scrunched her nose at the mention of the sun. "Its more like my body doesnt like it. I get really terrible burns when I go out in the sun.

Shippo says its called Albinoism." She gave a little quark to her smile "Its why I have white fur and red eyes. My eyes arnt really red, its just the blood you can see. Pretty nifty huh !"

She watched as Marishka came closer and shivered at the sniff. More of a shiver of when a lover touches bear skin with fingertips then of scared. She giggled "Do I? I dont really know what I smell like."

Marishka smirked at the sight of her shiver, knowing that her charm was having the effect she wanted on Lani. The fact that she was intriguing pleased her greatly. "What is your name? You are very intriguing as well. Albinoism, yes, I have heard of it. It's fascinating. My eyes are red as well from blood." She smirked again. "Your smells very sweet." She too made a face at the talk of sunlight. "Terrible things the sun does to us night dwellers."
