Alone Again, Again Alone. (Blood 'n stuff.)

[Raey]

Raeynia moved swiftly and silently through Selkia Forest, her eyes glittering in the gloom of twilight, her dark clothes camoflaging(spelling?) her lithe body in the gloom. As she slid through a breakage in the trees, one could see her blue hair rippling in the slight wind, for once it was streaming down her back. Her eyes lit up as she glanced to her right, moving stealthily, she grinned a predators grin, her lateral teeth elongating into her Vampyre teeth, they sharpened and stopped growing halfway past the end of her normal canines.

Her smirk grew wider as she spotted her prey, this disgusting human had been found running away from the slaughter of a young woman, her body broken and destroyed. She licked her lips "nothing better than the sweet smell of fear" she muttered to herself, slipping forward she continued stalking him, her eyes growing brighter in her eagerness for the hunt.

Slipping over a fallen log she followed him still through the gloom of the forest, her vampyric senses helpnig her in the dark.

[Dr. Ears]

Athier wandered through the Selkia Forest, his head down. He had been in deep thought for most of his journey. He could hardly remember what he was thinking about. Although he knew that it had something to do with his wife. . . How he missed her terribly. His boots crunched through broken branches and leaves that littered the ground underfoot. His head darted up, looking around as he heard rushed footsteps. He squinted into the undergrowth, he could see the outline of a man. He wasn't old, nor was he young. Probably in his mid twenties or so. He was running, and he looked worried. It was the face of a man who had committed a crime. Athier knew this face all too well.

Athier began to jog up towards the man, then he hid behind a tree. It's trunk easily hid his body from the mans line of sight. He waited a few moments, judging the speed of the man perfectly. He flicked his arm out, creating a sort of clothesline in front of the running man. The man smashed straight into Athiers firm arm, getting smacked directly in the throat. The man flipped onto his back, and landed into the ground with a painful thump.

Athier stepped over the man, and bent over him. He stared into the mans face, and said menacingly to him

"What you running away from?"

The man coughed and choked, his throat was in an immense amount of pain. Not just from the strength of the blow, but just how much it had surprised him.

"Um. . . I don't know. I'm just having a nice run in the forest" replied the man.

"Bullnuts" yelled Athier, and he spat in the mans face. The man recoiled, blinking a couple of times then looking back up into Althiers wrinkled and wearied face.

"You've f**kin' done something wrong. Haven't you? You've stolen something, murdered someone. What have you done?"

"Nothing"

"Argh!" Athier yelled as he lifted his boot up, and kicked the man in the abdomen.

"I can HELP you, why don't you tell me what's wrong!?"

He kicked the man twice more, and glared down at the mans face. Blood was beginning to seep through the mans undershirt.

"Why don't you start with your name?"

The man sighed, then gasped as he tried to take in a breath. Athier blinked and realised that he had probably taken it too far. The man looked up at him.

"My name. . . My name is. . . Devon."

[Raey]

As Raeynia continued to follow the man at a leisurely pace, her pupils dilated slightly and she growled inhumanely, sensing someone else's presence, she quickly pulled back into deeper shadows, skirting around the area she came out in front of the man but a few trees away just in time to see a stranger clotheshang him and begin to abuse the man, Raeynia smirked, as she calmly walked forward, purposely standing on a hard twig, hearing the sweet sound of a dead snap. Her eyes rested on the man on the ground, whom she now new as Devon and the stranger demnading answers.

Folding her arms across her stomach she smirked "Ahhh, it seems you've caught my dinner, and the murderer/rapist, so kind of you" her tone was cold and biting, her vampyre teeth still out, clearly showing she was one, and if the teeth didn't give it away her glowing violet eyes with the silver swirls was a dead (no pun intended) give away.

Raeynia continued to walk towards them, her body as agile as a feline's, her arms uncrossed as she put one slim hand on the bark of a tree next to her "now, if you'd be so kind as to leave, i'd like to have my meal in peace" her eyes hardened as she looked at the stranger.

[Dr. Ears]

"Now, if you'd be so kind as to leave, I'd like to have my meal in peace."

Athiers head turned to the side, and he looked into the violet eyes of a vampiric woman.

"I bloody well caught him for you. He ain't yours no more."

He glared at her, then he looked back down at Devon.

"So, Devon. What did you do? You look so scared, and I would be too if I was in your position. You got a f** after you, and a mercenary that has almost broke your ribs. What have you done wrong? You've certainly murdered someone, I know that much. No ones face is like that unless they have just committed their first murder. In fact its the same face warriors have when they make their first kill."

"Uh. . . uh. . . I. . uh" Devon stuttered a few times before making a little scared squeal. Athier grinned for a moment, before looking up at the .

"So, . You must have been chasing him for a little while, what did he do?"

[Raey]

Raeynia smirked, her eyes twinkling with mirth "you see, your first mistake, you caught HIM for ME, I never asked you too, so in actual fact, I still have claim to him" Raeynia's eyes darkened slightly as the man looked at Devon and began to speak to him, Raeynia let out a huff of impatience, inspecting her nails she glanced around.Her eyes however, snapped back to the man as he said he didn't even know what the man did. Her motuh opened and she let out a soft, musical laugh "you don't even know what he did? You don't know what this vile, disgusting, worthless piece of a creature did?" Her tone darkened considerably as she continued speaking, striding forward, she place a booted foot on the man's neck, shoving down slightly he began to cough and wretch.

Raeynia looked back up at the stranger, "this scum, this pathetic excuse for a life, destroyed an innocent-" at the word innocent her voice darkened even more, her features became harsher, "he raped, assaulted, destroyed, murdered an innocent woman because she wouldn't do what he said." Turning to look back at the man on the ground she growled, "and now he deserves to die!"

Looking at the man she smirked "only been following him for about a day, picked up his trail just after leaving the village, decided to play a little game in the forest, didn't we, devon" as she said the man on the grounds name her foot pressed down a bit harder.

[Dr. Ears]

Athiers eyes widened as the told him what Devons deed was. He assaulted, raped, murdered some poor woman. . . He stood up, and looked at the vampires face. Then he grasped her shoulders with both hands, and threw her away from Devon.

"I'm going to decide what happens to him, not some worthless leech like you."

He looked back down at Devon, and grasped his collar. He lifted him up slowly before speaking.

"Well Devon, I know what you have done now. I am disgusted. You have made me remember some painful memories. My wife and child were brutally murdered, but not until my wife was raped several times by three or four different men. I had to watch this happen, my arms and legs bound in chains. Do you know what I think about men who rape and kill?"

"Er. . . ugh. . . no" he squealed.

"There is no jury for men like you" Althier said violently, then he lifted his boot up again and kicked Devon twice more in the body.

"You can die here for all I care"

[Raey]

Raeynia laughed as the stranger attempted to throw her away from devon, she only flew like a foot and landed on her feet, "sweety, I'm a vampyre, an older generation, I am not easily thrown by humans like you," she walked back over to devon, "worthless leech, WORTHLESS LEECH!?" Her temper flared up, her violet eyes began to swirl as the silver contorted taking control of her eyes, "IM the leech? You, who cannot even look after yourself? Trust me darling, I can see straight through you, I can see into your heart and mind, I know what lurks there," As Raeynia continued to talk she moved swiftly forward until she was standing right agaisnt him, her eyes narrowed viciously.

Lifting up a hand she pressed it into his chest, "speak wisely, human, before your next attempt at an insult, for it may be your last. i'm not the strongest vampyre, and I'm not godlike with my strength, but I have enough strength and power to overrule you and your precious humankind. My kind would of killed you of long ago if it werent for the few of us that defended you people." Raeynia, done with her little outburst, turned around and began to walk around devon's body,

"sooo, devon, let's see, I can either...snap your neck, drink your blood through your jugular...orrr, break open your chest and rip out your heart..." as she spoke outloud of what she might do to him, she tapped a finger agaisnt her chin, then glancing at the stranger she grinned, "or we could decide some other course..."

[Dr. Ears]

"Don't touch me" Athier thought as he pressed her finger against his chest. He watched her step around Devon. Athier knew that the was right, but he didn't care. She may be stronger in terms of physical strength, but Athier was certainly proficient with his mind. Quite possibly even moreso than the .

Athiers attention was averted to the again as she spoke to him.

"Or we could decide some other course..."

Athier thought about it for a moment.

"Well, I feel like stomping his face into the curb." He smiled for a second and looked down in Devons direction.

"Actually I kind of feel like killing you nice and slowly, a bit like how that lass would have felt as you killed her slowly."

He chuckled to himself as he thought of his next quip,

"Or I could pull out my knife and chop ya thingy off? Actually, I might give this the pleasure of dealing with your extremities. How would you like that, love?"

He chuckled to himself with this comment. He certainly felt like killing this young man named Devon.

[Raey]

Raeynia came to a halt near Devon's head, crouching down she stroked his forehead, staring into his eyes, as he looked at her fearfully, not even managing to move so much as fear of both a vampyre and the man that attacked him rooted him to the ground. She sighed softly, "oh sweet human, what made you turn to evil?" she asked rhetorically. Still stroking his forehead she looked up at the man and shook her head, "such crude words, human, and you might give me the pleasure? Oh, I thought it was mine to take." Her eyes came to a point just past his shoulder as she frowned slightly, "my name's Raeynia by the way so stop calling me vampyre." Her eyes darkened slightly.

Looking back at Devon her face brightened quite considerably, "so, mister innocent killer, how are we gonna do this? Would you like bits of your anatomy sliced of, and live knowing how deformed you are, or go through a bit of torture then die slowly? Really it's up to you, I have basically a millennia to do this...though maybe you do not..?" she asked sarcastically. A small smirk gracing her features.

[Dr. Ears]

Athier was still chuckling to himself when the spoke to him again.

"My name's Raeynia by the way so stop calling me vampyre."

Athier looked at her darkly.

"I will call you what I want, ."

He looked back down at Devon, then he smiled when the said

". . .live knowing how deformed you are, or go. . ."

"Ha!" Athier laughed thunderously

"No man would want to live if his manhood was removed, ha! I can't believe you could propose such a thing. Are you one of those dumb vampires or something, aye?"

Athier looked back up at the .

"I suggest, you let me kill Devon. I'll kill him, stab him, whatever. Perhaps even impale him with my sword-"

He stopped for a moment.

"And I know you're thinking it, , but by that I don't mean that I'll sodomise him, I'm not into men. I mean that I'll run him through with the bloody sword across my back"

He pointed at the sword strapped across his back. Then he looked back down at Devon.

"So mate, what do you think we should do?"

Devon was speechless.

[Raey]

Raeynia's temper began to rise, as the man continued to annoy her, looking up at him her teeth had elongated again and the silver in her eyes had nearly taken over all of the violet, "look human, would you shut up the heck up! Stop acting so arrogant or you will be my after dinner snack" she growled threateningly, and turned back to the human, "well, little human... what would you like..." she smiled at him, which was quite disrtoted due to her teeth and scary silver eyes.

Raeynia's self control snapped as the stranger still didn't shut up, "look here you ridiculously dumb human! I was not speaking about that! I know how men act you bad excuse for anything. And no you do not know what I am thinking! You must obviously actually enjoy men like that if that jumped to your disgusting mind" Raeynia's voice darkened threateningly as she talked, her hands balling into fists, her eyes were nore completely silver and her face calmed down, staring at the stranger "I think, seeing as he is my prey, I will deal with him"

Uncleanching her fists, blood began to flow freely for a minute, she had dug her nails as far into her palms as she could and as her nails were rather sharp, they'd dug and cut into her skin. Grabbing Devon's shirt she yanked him up and began to walk off, half dragging Devon behind her.

[Dr. Ears]

Athier ignored the vampires insults, and turned to look at her as she picked up Devon.

"Okay then lady, you stay right here. You aren't taking this son of a pregnant dog anywhere. You either kill him where you're standing, or I kill him right now. I'm not gonna let you take him away and set him free, I have a bad feeling that you actually like this not a very nice person."

Athier reached over to his back and pulled his sword out of its sheath. He held it ready at his side.

"If you try to take him away. I will kill him, and then I will take care of you. Try me."

[Raey]

Raeynia sighed as the stranger continued to annoy her, turning around she frowned angrily at him "what gives you the right to tell me what to do?" she demanded, angry that he continued to annoy her. acting as if he could boss everyone around and that he frightened people, pah, what would he know of fear. Raeynia looked at devon, bending her head she whispered something in his ear then sighing she looked at the stranger.

A glare erupted onto her features "fine then!" she snarled and turning back around she merely broke devon's neck letting his limp body fall to the ground she scowled back at the stranger "happy now?!" she demanded, it always irked her if someone saw her killing someone, albeit they were murderers, etc, but still. Picking up devon's body again she walked a short distance to some bushes, she slid his body in under them and turned away.
