Demon: *Wanders through the forest, the trees suddenly seeming quieter and errie even to his ears. He looked around, here was were he had left his mark on Rhea..... he turned his head.... there was were he fought Nori over this land, he turned around, and there was were he stalked Enqueri. The forest held many memories, some louder than others. He just wished they would leave him be.*
Rhea:: *Is but angered and sorrowful about the departure. Though, her anger seemed to be the more dominating trait in this moment. She was cursing under her breathe, even though she knew it wasn't lady like. Somebody about how things turned out left her with more grief than she had ever experienced. Well, almost at least.* Demon. Hmph.... that fool. That... that hot headed- ugh! *she charged at a random tree, feeling the need to blow off some steam by stabbing a random object. Clearly she hadn't thought this through because when she hit the trunk dead on her horn stuck into it a few inches and her body came to a sudden stop and a pain to shoot through her head and neck.* AHH! *she cried out at the top of her lungs and tried to pull back only to realize her horn was stuck.* Oh! No no no no! *She pouted and tried to tug and twist her head to free herself but she was stuck good.*

Demon: *Demons ears flapped at a sudden noise near by. It had been less than a day since he had seen Rhea last but part of him thought he could hear her now.... he shook his head, wishful thinking. He had things to do... black magic to practise, he couldn't be dealing with a silly mare who liked to play games right now. He growled. He actually enjoyed most of her games. His thoughts lingered on the mark he left on her rump... that was his mark. But she was so frustrating, so...... AGH. He raised he head and let out a bone curdaling roar.*
Rhea:: *The mares attempts to unstick herself from the tree were rudely interrupted by a ear ringing roar that left her shaking. Usually, she wouldn't be this shaken by such a noise but the fact that she was stuck with little room to move, whoever that roar belonged to could rip her to peices. She began to desperately tug and this let all sorts of sounds of frustration and desperation as she attempted to free herself. Never had she felt so helpless.* Ugh, Hmph! Grrrr.... *Her noises continued as she struggled.*

Demon: *Once he was finished, his throat feeling a burning sensation that he welcomed, pain.... pain was something he could handle.... still his ears twitched towards the noise, it was getting more.... frustrated, desperate. He wondered if this would be an opportunity to taunt some prey.... or maybe even attempt to use his black magic? He grinned. Surely either of them would erase any thoughts of yellow mares and their hot headedness. But he was wrong, as soon as he saw the rump... now with his familar mark upon them... he knew who he was looking at. He stayed back, hidden by the trees as he watched her. He wanted to growl, he wanted to attack her... he wanted to kiss her. Each a more disturbing thought than the one before it. She was stuck, horn fully embedded in the tree before her.... he wondered if he could help, did he even want to help? He growled then, a low rumbling noise.... this mare had him second guessing himself, to anyone else he would have either killed them or walked away... yet here he stood contemplating to help her? She was under his skin, a sensation he DID NOT like! Still he walked forward, careful not to make too many loud noises, he didn't want her to know it was him... not yet..... slowly he circled her, only letting her catch glimpses of him due to her lack of movement until he stood to one side of her. Still as a statue and just watched her. Of course, it was the side with his mark.... he was just as vein as she was in that regard.*
Rhea:: -She heard the faintest snap of a twig and she tensed up, stilling for a brief moment to listen but when no other noises came she continued her persistant tugging that was causing her to have the worst headache of her life. Just as she felt the tree starting to give way she caught the sight of something. A shadow? Maybe her paranoia was playing tricks on her. No wait! There it was again. She stilled herself and took a deep breathe. Even if she was stuck she wouldn't go down without a fight.* So much as rouch me and I'll kick your teeth in.... *Her voice was low and warning, but wasn't as assertive as it would have been had she the freedom to look at her opponent.*

Demon: *Demon stood quietly for a moment before finally saying.* Look at me Rhea. *It was full of authority, and was a command rather than a request, he moved slightly so that it would be relatively easy for her to see him should she turn her head..... then he waited, for some reason he felt her welcome would be even colder than it had been to the circling stranger. He waited for it. Welcomed it. Maybe then he could hurt her in return.*
Rhea:: *The familiar voice had caused her to body freeze and her heart seemed to do the same.* Demon.... *she spoke as if it were a regret. Shame began to wash over her as she flicked her eyes towards the direction of his voice and tried to turn her head but it harmed her head which was throbbing with pain. There was no sense of malice. At the moment she was only embarrassed from her current situation.*

Demon: *Watched her, and noted the way she said in his name in recognition. He knew not if she was glad it was him or not... not that he had much to go on, apart from Fathom his sister no one was usually glad to get a visit from Demon, and few others walked away from him twice. Still... here he stood facing Rhea again. With a cough to clear his miind he tried not to snarl or growl or roar, the look in her eyes almost broke him. It was hatred he saw there..... it was something he didn't understand, and didn't know if he could ever return. He looked to were her horn was trapped, and wondered if he would snap it if he tried to help. He stared at her for a moment longer before asking... something foreign to him, he usually just took.....* Do you want my help?
Rhea:: *She excepted a taunting comment or a snarky joke to spill from his mouth but what she recieved was something unexpected.* You offering me your help? *She seemed to be sore about it but in the end she glanced down at the ground, seeing as how there wasn't much else she could look at, but this stare was something of defeat and shame. Something she felt a lot around Demon. So why was it that she kept yearning for him to be around?* If you could... yes... I would want that very much... *Still, there was a lingering fear that his definition of help might be just snapping her horn off right there to break her away from the tree. Hopefully he was .... gentle.*

Demon: *Nodded, suddenly determinded to try and help her...... he had no idea why it was so important but he simply ignored that and set to work. He closed the distance between them, invading her personal space. His head moved closer and closer to her own as he looked at the horn. He could feel her body heat, smell the aroma of her scent and even feel lingering whispers of her breath. It was hard to think straight over it... but he thought... maybe... just maybe he had a plan. If he made the hole larger she could slip her horn out, if he made a hole next to it the tree would weakne between the two and allow her get free? He hoped. Before consulting her he headbutted the tree with as much force as he could muster. The horns on his nose pieced the bark and wood, and sure enough he felt the tug as the tree attempted to refuse him to leave. He dug his hooves in deep and pulled backwards with all his might. It took a moment but he was flung free, causing him to lose control on strike Rhea's side as he stumbled free.*
Rhea:: -She felt the tree jolt as a boom was heard from above. Being how her head was pointed down she could only guess what was happening. Perhaps Demon was attempting to split the trunk or something. It was hard to tell just from one bang. Then there was a tremor in the tree, causing her head to shake and irritate her worsening migraine. Subtle whimpers of pain filled her brain, and this pain was far worse than when he had bitten her. However, in a split second after the jolt in her head there was a sharp pain in her side that caused her to cry out. Her eyes were starting to sting with tears from all this suffering.* Demon! *She scolded him but with one firm tug her horn slipped free of the wood and she stumbled back, dizzy and disoriented from the headache. She fell to her knees before flopping down on her side and just resting her head on the ground, trying to just lay still.* Thanks.... *She muttered out her gratitude.*

Demon: *As she called out his name Demon found himself incredible disappoint in himself. He gritted his teeth and bit on his own tongue to stop it running away from him. Then as she pulled herself free and literally collapsed on the ground muttering thanks he found himself... confused. He blinked and stared down at her... what had just happened? He grunted and then nodded to her.* Em.... *he started, unsure how this really worked.* Are you ok?
Rhea:: *Because of her current state, she didn't want to move, she didn't want to raise her voice, and she certainly didn't want to fight. Anything to worsen her headache was something she was trying to avoid right now. When he asked her if she alright in that awkward sense she flicked her eyes up at her before feeling a sharp pain behind her eyes she sighed and squinted them shut to ease the throb.* My head just.... It hurts a lot right now. Sorry I'm actually being quite for a change. *Was that a friendly joke? Why yes. yes it was.She cracked a faint smile and remained with her eyes shut tight.*

Demon: *Found himself averting his gaze from her. He didn't like being in this situation... he would rather she was fiesty and mad at him. Still, she mentioned a headache... maybe if he could get rid of it he would have his fiesty mare back? He grinned at the idea and looked around for one of plants he knew grew around this area. After circling the area he found it. Thyme. He gathered it in his mouth and pulled before joining her again. He threw it to the ground before her and barked out a command.* ....eat it. *His eyes narrowed on her as he watched her. Then he softened a little and added.* Trust me.
Rhea:: *No response to her humor. Eh, she was never to good at making others laugh, unless of course it was Demon laughing at her when she wasn't trying to be funny.* Demon? *She called to him and tried to lift her head but gave up when it felt like thorns being stabbed into her eyes.* Uuugh, Demon, get your butt back here! *she called out for him, but soon he was dropping some thing in front of her. She stared at the strange plant for a while with squinted eyes before glancing up at him.* Eat it? What is it? *She asked but he told her to trust him, and that was all she needed before she began to ingest the plant, not liking it's taste, but she ate it all. It took a few to actually feel it's effects but surely enough it was starting to numb the pain slowly.* By the way... way to hit me on my side... *she lifted her head, feeling strong enough, and glanced at her sore spot. There was no scratch but surely there'd be a bruise under her pelt for a while.*

Demon: *He winced... actually winced as he mentioned the hit to her side. He had been clumpsy.... how could he ever explain that to her? He growled low and lowered his head and simply stared at her for a long while before he managed to bite out a single word.* Sorry. *Then he pulled himself tall and stepped back from her... things got complicated when they were together.*
Rhea:: *She raised an eyebrow and rolled so that she was sitting up straight, but remained on the ground as she looked up at him. She wasn't sure if she liked this side of him. He was so... normal. She narrowed her eyes at him and sighed.* No you're not... If you're going to lie to me Demon at least try to convince me. *She sighed and got up to her feet at last.* Helping... apologies? Thought all of this was above you... *She gave him a skeptical look.*

Demon: *He growled then, she goading him... again. With a sudden movement he was looking at her again, his eyes narrowed and teh whites glowing with a menacing intensity.* For someone who was not mine... perhaps. But you ARE MINE Rhea. *He purred her name* And I find I do not want to fight with you again so soon. *He growled again despite his words. He wasn't very good at this but he bloody well wouldn't let her talk to him like that without fighting back.*
Rhea:: *She let out a small huff before staring back. It wasn't with anger, or nervousness. Just a blank stare, filled with nothing.* If we're not fighting... then what are we to do? I find it hard to think you and I could ever hold a normal conversation...

Demon: *He growled at her again.* I thought we were.... *He looked away then, frustration building as he looked to her rump, sure enough there was a patch that seemed a slightly different colour, he must have struck her with a lot of force to bring it out already. Slowly he turned his attention to her.* What do you suggest then? How about I kidnap you. Take you back to my dark cave and keep you safe from everyone but me? Is that what you want Rhea? Remember what I am... *Another growl rumbled in his throat*
Rhea:: *A longing expression rose to her face, but she tried to hide it with a mischievious smirk.* You flatter me Demon. I've never had a stallion long for me so much as to consider kidnapping. *She seemed to be untouched by his mentioning of his monstrous Kalona blood. To her he was just a twisted stallion who tickled her fancy.*

Demon: *He rolled his eyes before glaring at her once more.* I am starting to think you are even more twisted than I am. *He blew out a breath through his nose into her face, partically venting out of his frustration. Then he stared at her again.* You need to rest..... *He didn't know what to say or do now, but the desire to kiss her was growing and he was determined not to cave into it.*
Rhea:: *That comment on her sanity left her feeling irritated. She wasn't twisted. Odd maybe but twists wasn't a word she would be proud of being labeled as.* Not Funny.... *She warned him in a low voice before he mentioned she needed rest.* Rest... I don't need that. I'm fine... *However, she did still have a sickening throb in her head, even though it hadn't been as bad as it was moments before.*

Demon: *He glowered at her and ordered in one firm word.* REST! *Then he gentled ever so slightly,* Please Rhea, I will not ask you again. *If needs be, he would knock her out... anything to make her rest. It was bad enough that he had struck her leaving a bruise, but she was also suffering from a headache after having her head attached to a tree for however long. He growled low at the thought of someone else attack her... she was his! He was the only want allowed to enjoy her now. Angry sudden he looked at her,* Why are you still in this forest? *Was she meeting up with someone? Spying on him? Planning to attack him? He growled at the thought, but sudden he felt like something clicked... she was so brave around him because she had back up?*
Rhea:: *She widened her eyes at his sudden demand and she sighed, giving a harsh glare, even if it hurt her head.* Fine.... *She lowered herself to the ground and since he was so urgent to have her rest she might was well do it here. She looked up at him for a moment until it hurt her neck and decided to just lay her head down on the floor as well. The question as to why she was in the forest bothered her as well. It wasn't even clear to her why she was so drawn to this forest. Before meeting Demon she usually just passed through but now she was lingering.* I guess it's the closest thing I have to home.... *As sad as that answer made her it was the truth. Not to mention it held her closest friend, who she strangely hated. Yeah, Demon was the closest she had ever gotten to anybody. Sad.*

Demon: *He growled at her but softened a little as she obeyed him without another word and answered his question. Home? Most mares outside of the Kalonas and skinwalkers didn't believe in living alone, so he found this incredibly hard to understand.* Alone? *He snapped out, he wanted... no he needed to know. He didn't even know why it matter so much, all that mattered is it did.... she was his possession, yes, that was all it was. No one could have her but him. He lowered himself next to her so that she would stop wincing every time she looked up at him.* Rhea.... *he purred out her name but said no more.... he couldn't bring himself to.*
Rhea:: *She cringed at the word. It was so miserable but she accepted the fact that she was alone. All alone. Still, did she trust him enough to explain? Nobody else had asked. Nobody else cared. Wait, did that mean he cared? She found this hard to believe and gave him a curious look before sighing out with frustration. She couldn't tell, but her best guess would be that he didn't care.* Ever since my .... father was taken from me... I've had nobody else who cared... Are you alone? Or.... do you have people who you can go to if you need them? *It felt terrible to think that she had nobody to count on.*
