Fever }{ [Open]

[skuggflamma]

Catelyn held him in a firm grip. Saw his eyes change color - again. He was ... she didn't know what he was really. Good or Bad. Human or not. Does it matter? She asked herself.

- Samuel.

She felt him shiver.. no shake. The paladin staring at his eyes while looking for... something she could not see. Holding her breath - holding him on his feet.

-Grethom.

Catelyn breathe deeply, due the heat and the tension. She would find the village. Looking him into his mysterious eyes of what world she couldn't understand,

- You did great. Samuel. Thank you. Will you follow me there?

[thedookienut]

Samuel slowly began to stop shaking, calming down. He loosened his arms and sighing deeply. What had happened? He was clueless.

He lifted his head up, nodding a little. He'd go with her if she wanted. Wherever Grethom was.

"I'll go..." He replied, just managing to get the words out.

[skuggflamma]

Catelyn nods.

- You're brave, Samuel.

But let's see if he got a heart, the paladin turned away from him and whistle a tune. From the forest she got an answer. A whinny from a horse. A big and white horse came running towards them, and stops just in front of Catelyn. The horse wore neghter sadle or any reins. The stallion sharpen his ears and looked at Samuel with dark eyes.

- Whoa... You need to carry this man, Eocho. His to weak to walk by his own.

She spoke to the horse, and it seemed to listen. Catelyn pinches the horse on a spot and it followed the commando. The white horse lay down on the ground and Catelyn turned towards Samuel.

- This is Eocho, he will carry you.

She would take the packhorse.

- I need to go to my camp and get my things.

[thedookienut]

Samuel closed his eyes once again, trying to recover his strength. His head jerked up as the sound of hooves thundered towards him. He watched the white stallion eye him carefully. He let out a deep sigh and headed towards his things.

He felt himself trip and crash into a tree. He definatly wasn't strong enough to walk. He swore and grabbed his sword and jacket, which he slipped on to cover his neck.

"Your kind." He said, bowing his head and stumbling towards the horse. He winced as the burning sensation from his scar blazed. Breifly, he ran his hand along it and mounted the horse.

[skuggflamma]

Catelyn signed. The man was weak and she was selfish, he could not travel in this shape. Prehaps they could await the night and evening coolness before searching the village. The paladin jumps upp behind Samuel and she puts her arms arround him.

- Don't worry. I got you. Hold on to me.

She pressed her heels in the sides of the horse, and it rose to its feet. Just with her toes, pressing the spots - giving the horse diffrent commandos - she got the horse to start moving towards the forest. She lay her palm over his forhead.

- You're burning up. I am so sorry for this, Samuel. I could not see that... t.. I am a fool. I hope you forgive me. I'll care for you untill you're better.

Catelyn made the horse to trot av bit faster. The paladin signed. As the went in between the threes the soothing shadows welcomed them. The steady steed bore them to the campsite and the woman jumped off. This time did Samuel have to get off the horseback himself, but Catelyn was ready to catch him.

[thedookienut]

Samuel swayed as the horse rose to his feet. He closed his eyes, clentching his fists.

"I'm being such a burden..." He muttered, gripping the horse's mane. He bit his lip and opened his eyes.

Once they reached the camp, he waited until Catelyn had dismounted before he did. Once his feet touched the floor, his knees buckled. He dropped, landing on the ground.

"I'm sorry...."He sighed, trying to get up.

[skuggflamma]

She felt bad, feeling that made her feel responsible for his condition. He was exhausted! It was to warm and she made him look at.. at.. that horrible vision. With shame burning on her cheeks.

- ...

She grabs one of his arms and puts her other arm arround his waits... and tries to get him up on his feet.

- You need to rest. It's my fault... I ..

[thedookienut]

"No...it's my fault. I don't know why I started walking in this heat." Samuel sighed, slowly getting to his feet. He pushed off from the ground and stood. He could feel his knees trying to buckle again. He fought against it and walked.

He stumbled forwards, dropping back against a tree. Her camp was a lot cooler than where he'd previously been sat. He undid his belt and placed his sword to one side. He could rest better like that.

[laraine]

A figure ran through the forest. She panted, glancing behind her and wishing she hadn't.

"Gods they are still following me." She looked ahead again in time to dodge a low branch and lose one demon to it. She smirked, and continued to run through the forest.

But, of course, as graceful as she was, she tripped over a root and fell to the ground, the demons surrounding her.

The hood fell from her face to reveal determined purple eyes and long silky pink hair.

"Well well well. Look who we caught here." Hissed one of the demons. "A beautiful, but dead halfling."

"Well see who is dead.." She hissed, reaching to grab her sword, but one demon grasped her arm and pinned it behind her back. Another demon did the same to her other arm. Surprised, she struggled to free herself, but then a figure appeared from the demons. Long pink hair signaled that she knew this was no friend.

He looked at her with harsh eyes and drew his sword. "Die, Laraine."

[thedookienut]

ooc.// Nice to see you joined laraine. Hi hikari. You joining too.

Bic:// Damien's eyes shot open again. They were the same strange colour from before. "There's someone in the forest!" He called, struggling to speak. This time his vision had been of vile creatures and a girl. A girl whom, by the look of his vision, was about to die.

He pushing himself to his feet and reached for his sword. He was in no state to fight the creatures, but he could try.

[skuggflamma]

Catelyn watched the crows fly. A bad sign. She knew before Samuel sad anything. There was something in the forest. The paladin went for her crossbow, grabbed her sword and started running towards the forest.

- Bel'tiai - guide me.

She whispered while running. There was only one projectile loaded - but she counted on it. And was thinking of using the sword. She could hear them now, and started to run faster. When she could see the a figure, she fires the crossbow and hopes for it to make a good hit.

[thedookienut]

Samuel pushed himself to his feet. The newest vision had left him feeling evermore weak. He called to the horse, Eocho, making a tutting sound. He stumbled forwards, determined not too fall. He could defeat his weakness, he was sure he could.

He tripped, landing at the feet of the stallion. "Please...." He whispered, remembering the look he'd been given before. He pushed himself to his feet again, stroking the horse gently.

[laraine]

One demon was struck nearby the one with pink hair and red eyes. It turned towards the person who shot the arrow and hissed. Raine took this chance and escaped from her Uncle's clutches and swung her sword, cleaving one demon in two. She formed red energy, demonic energy in her free hand and blasted it towards the pink haired demon. It dodged and Raine backed away sword held out in front of her.

"You cant hide forever Raine." Her uncle called.

" I can try!"

[skuggflamma]

The Paladin stopped. What... the...?! Demons! Their red enery made the whole air thick, collideing with the forces of Bel'tiai.
Catelyn backs off, confused. Why would she help that woman? Using that kind of dark magic. It made the holy paladin , really . Catelyn tubbles to a tree and vomits. The sword were shivering with power, and the flame of Bel'tiai wanted to break through. Catelyn holds back, tubbling away from the battle.

[thedookienut]

He could hear a odd buzing noise. He shuddered and gripped his sword harder, trying to walk towards the noise. Through the trees he could see red light blinding through the gaps in the dense forest. He stumbled, cursing under his breath.

He continued forwardsas fast as his weak legs could carry him. He saw a shape cowering behind a tree. Only when he got closer did he she it wasn't cowering but throwing up.

"Catelyn? Are you alright? " He leaning against a latge rock, his voice filled wit worry.
