A Walk in the Forest }{ (Open to All)

[{::Lucine-Rhychore::}]

Lucine pictured his version of a club scene. Him and his elven family dancing to the tune of handmade whistles and instruments drinking whine and having a great time. It was a quiet and calm celebration. Everybody was nice. She wondered if that would be fun. Probably...not. To her at least. He was raised here and that was his idea of fun. She couldn't judge that, it would be wrong. She nodded and smiled. Lucine watched as he looked to where she had come from, the path that lead to the cities and towns outside of the forest. She was getting ideas.

"Hey Brandon. I was wondering if you'd join me tonight. There's a festival going on in a town near here. A huge one. Maybe you'd like to come with me?" She rubbed the back of her head. She blushed a little bit as well. Since she was taking him somewhere and they were going to have fun...could it be considered...a..date? She turned around to hide her blush and waited for his answer.

"Then maybe you can take me to the next celebration you have." Lucine smiled widely. She was excited for if he'd say yes to either one of these options.

[brandon]

Brandon smirked, as He knew what she was asking for. And it would be good for him to leave the forest once in a while. And so, He smiled a bit, as he nodded slightly to her invitation. "Sure! Its a Date!" He replied, chuckling a bit to see her expression on her face.

He seemed a bit suprised when she asked if she might be able to go to one of the Elven Celebrations. He thought for a bit, and smiled gently. "Ill have to talk to the Elders about that one... We dont normally even converse with outsiders..."

Lucy pictured Brandon's version of the bar scene. She invisioned him and his elven family dancing and drinking whine to the tune of handmade whistles and other instruments. She thought that maybe if she opened her mind it would be fun. She watched brandon as he looked to where she had come from. She saw a little bit of longing in his eyes. Lucine smiled.

"Hey Brandon. There's a festival in a town near here. There'll be games and wine and people...anyways do you want to come with me?" She said and started to blush. She turned around instantly embarrased at the thought that she would be going with him. Two people going somewhere and having fun could be considered....a date.

"And maybe, if you family let me, I could join one of your celebrations." She just stood there with a hot face and waited for his answer.

[brandon]

Brandon nodded, as he quickly ran off into the Bush, and came back with a Backback in his hands. "Of course, I could use a lil Adventure..." He replied, as he smiled brightly.

"What town is the Party at?" He asked, Wondering where the Celebration was.

((OOC: Agh, Short post))

[{::Lucine-Rhychore::}]

Lucine didin't even turnn around before Brandon returned with his backpack. It made her laugh out loud when she saw him standing there so eager to go. She was happy to take him and all the embarrassment had left her. His bright smile seemed to make her so eager to get out of the forest as well. Lucine wiped a tear from her face, she laughed so hard she had started to cry.

"Well, I'm heading toward the capital. Tamsha village. But, I'm going to take a detour if you don't mind. I have some business to take care of in a neighboring village." She smile and waited. Stupid Tamara had been causing trouble again. She needed to put him in his place. Now was the perfect time since Brandon would be coming with her.

{It's okay. ^^}

[brandon]

"Tashma Village? Thats a few days walk from here... And with your lil Detour, Maybe more then 5 days atleast..." He said, as he counted up the hours they would have to travel. He shrugged a bit at the distance, but he was used to walking that much already.

"I dunt mind a lil side trip... I could see more of the country side..."

[{::Lucine-Rhychore::}]

Lucine knew how long it would take, but she wondered how fast he could travel. Her, she could travel somewhere very quickly due to her shapeshifting. She smiled and nodded.

"Yes, it's a long way by foot. But, we don't have to travel by foot." She smiled and started walking wondering how Brandon would feel riding on the back of a dragon. She could summon one for him to ride and transform into one herself. She just kept walking knowing he'd follow and catch up quickly.

"As for my detour. This guy has been causing trouble in the village I spend most of my time in. I want to show him who's boss." She laughed. She couldn't wait to see the look on his face when she kicked his sorry ass.

[brandon]

"I dont mind Travel by foot... Im used to it... I can run for a few Miles before I get tired..." He said, with a smirk. Being raised by Woodland Elves, His Body had enough stamina to Run, and fight for a long time before feeling tired.

"Alright then... So, Shall we get going?" He asked, Eager to leave. Though he disliked the idea of Revenge. It was against his 'Adopted' Nature, but it was going to be worth it.

[{::Lucine-Rhychore::}]

The two started to walk. Lucine knew exactly where she was going, so the trip would be a breeze. She hated walking on foot though, but if Brandon enjoyed it then they'd walk until they were tired.

"All right. But tommarrow, we travel my way." She said with a smile. If they walked they wouldn't get there in time for the festival. Then what? She just kept an even stride and looked into the deep forest listening to the birds and bugs that sounded their presence.

[brandon]

Brandon also walked at a brisk pace. Slightly faster then her, Once he was a few meters ahead of her, He smirked, looking back towards her. "Agreed... You seemed to be in a bit of a Hurry... I got an idea... Get on my back..." He said, as he got to his knees, which would allow her to climb on easily. He chuckled under his breath as he waited for her. He had a bit of a suprise instore for her, and it would help on their journey to the Captial.

[{::Lucine-Rhychore::}]

Lucine had to contantly jog to keep up with Brandon at her walking pace. She was short and walked a considerable amount slower than did. Everytime she caught up she's smile at him and try and walk faster. Sooner or later she'd slow back down to her normal pace annoyed by Brandon's fast one. She gave up eventually and trailed behind him until he stopped all the sudden and she caught up. He looked back at her.

"What? You're back. That'll just slow you down." She said and then thought about it. She looked at him. He was very muscular and she giggled a bit. It wouldn't slow him down, it would speed her up. She walked up to him and crawled up onto his back and looked at him for a minute.

"Okay, but if you get tired let me down."She smiled and waited for them to start moving. It felt nice to not have to walk, but she also felt bad fr Brandon having to carry her. She should have say no. Lucine just stayed put because Brandon seemed willing to do it.

[brandon]

He nodded as he got back to his feet, like she was merely a Paper Weight. He smirked, as he looked back to her a bit, and said "Hold on..." He said as he started to walk, and eventually, Broke into a Run which was a tad faster then she could of done.

Being raised by woodland Elves, He was trained to be fast, No matter what he was doing, What he was carrying, or what the weather was. Carrying Lucy was easier then a pack full of stones. He leapt over fallen trees with ease, and he plowed into small creeks like they were nothing.

"You alright back there?"

[{::Lucine-Rhychore::}]

Lucine wasn't expecting anything too severe when they started to move. They were walking and it didn't seem to be any strain on the elven raised boy that was carrying her. But, they certainly were moving faster than before. But, a few minutes later, they started to move faster and faster. Soon, they were flying through the woods. Brandon was weaving through the trees and bushes heading down the path from which she had come from. She thought about the village bullly and how she was going to take care of him, but she really didn't feel like it. She thought about it for a moment and then decided to change her mind.

"Hey Brandon. I think we should go straight to the festival. It lasts more than a day and I want to have as much fun as I can. So, let's just have fun." She said and smiled. She was doing absolutely fine riding on his back. He was sweet and kind and she felt like she could act like herself already around Brandon. She hoped they would become great friends and have a hell of a lot of fun at the festival over the next few days.

They were getting closer and closer to the end of the past, a few hours past and a village could be seen in the distance. It wasn't the village they were looking for though, but they would have to stay the night there and continue early in the morning on their journey.

"Hey, what do you say we stop for the night. Rest up and then continue in the morning. It will get dark soon." Lucine let him keep running and make up his own mind. She just thought about reaching the festival and having fun.

[luke]

Rudi sat down slowly into his seat. It had been a long trek through the woods today and Rudi had been happy to find this village with its tavern that also doubled as the villages inn. Rudi had quickly purchased a room for the night and also food and drink for the rest of the day until tomorrow morning. Rudi sat at the table in the corner where he could observe the comings and goings of people. Most of the people in it are from the village. Sipping at his tankard of ale, Rudi yawned somewhat silently and got to his feet again. Rudi, his staff in one hand and his tankard of ale in the other, walked slowly out of the door and to the edge of the village. Breathing in the fresh air, Rudi looked around himself, first back at the village and then toward the trees facing him. Something in the distance caught Rudi's eye and Rudi saw a tall human-like figure rushing through the bushes a fair way off but seeming to be aiming to get to the village.

Looking again at the figure, Rudi saw that it was actually a guy with a girl on his back running at considerable speeds and dodging through the forest, boasting his ease and grace even at those high speeds. The young man must of been raised by elf's, most likely wood elf's. The girl hung on with a little less grace despite her being the same age. Rudi got the impression that they were siblings. Smiling again to himself, Rudi realized that he was out in the open and quickly stepped back into the shadows, where he could watch without being watched himself. Slipping his staff into the strap that fits effortlessly around his back, practically invisible when it was not in use but still easy for him to slip his staff away onto his back. Continuing to sip at his tankard of ale, Rudi watched their approach to the village, noticing how beautiful the girl was...

[Azuroth]

Azuroth was wandering around the woods, staggering due to energy loss. Oness again he hadn't drained life force for few days, so he couldn't move very fast nor could he fly. As he tried to move forward he stumbled on a tree trump, cursing. Cursing his power to hurt in order to live, as he sighed on the fact that he had to drain life ones again in order to continue his journey. As Azuroth reached upon a tree in order to drain the tree next to him something soared trough his eyes. He fixed his eyes to the direction the shape went, and saw a large and fast creature moving away from his location (not noticing that it was two creatures, one carrying the other). He began draining the tree, fixed his eyes in the withering root, shed tears and mumbled something in fae as in asking to be forgiven by the tree now corrupted by his touch.

Azuroth wiped tears off from his face got up, and begun moving towards the shape that passed him a while ago, being intrigued by it as he was. Soon noticing that walking will never allow him reach that large shape, so he flapped his wings, took up in flight, rose above the trees and flew towards the large being...
