A stroll out in the night

[Txep'Kxetse]

(Just getting back in the nack of using this character. Its been awhile)

It was a dark heavy night the air was thick and humid the stars were hidden by a thick blanket of clouds and there was even fogs rolling out over the damp land.

Heavy thuds plodded across the dirt with a slight offset misstep. The paws were dark and the legs white but dirtied and stained with days old blood and mud. The creatures massive wide head was held even with his shoulders as he limped across the land with a heavy breath. Taries hadn't taken a brake since being exiled and chased off his fathers land. His shoulder was in splitting pain from his brothers last strike, blood was covering his entire left leg, but it was dried now. But the wound must have been the worse he'd had since being a cub as the numbness didn't kill the pain, it was all the way down to the bone.

He lifted his lighter blue eyes and searched the place and grumbled as the skies broke and started crying again. The rain pittered and soaked into Taries's pelt again making it look a black instead of a dark brown. He sighed continuing on he really had no idea of where he was going he was just getting away from his now previous past.

(( Good oppening post ))

Being a rouge was a hard life, and that's a fact. However being a Female rouge is always a lot harder. Yet Jata found it increadibly easy, after being a rouge for so long. She had passed through countless lands and yet, no of them she had even felt the slightest glimps of finding a hom there. "This one will be no different" she said aloud sighing. Seeing a male infront of her, and quite obveiousley he was hurt, she had to help.

"Errr... Excuse me?" Jata said as she approached the male, "Are you alright? Do you need any help?" she asked, still a short distance away. Jata had had bad experiences with males, and even injured ones put up a fight. "If you want I could just leave" Jata said turning and walking off slowly, being ever vidgilant of an attack.

Hofu was leaning up against a tree, sleeping the night away, when he suddenly awoke to voices.
"Errr... Excuse me? Are you alright? Do you need any help?" She said, as he stood up.

He lookeed over and saw she was talking to another male.
"Oh good, she wan't talking to me." He said, giving a sigh of releif.

His eyes widened. "Oh, no. Now what do I do? I don't know wether I should go over there or if I should leave, this isn't fair." He said to himself.

[Txep'Kxetse]

Taries pinned his ears back at the approach of another he stopped as she spoke and came near. Excuse me? Are you alright? Do you need any help? He heard her say. He looked at her funny at why'd she ask such a thing, he obviously seen nothing wrong with him having a sliced up shoulder. He didn't understand why'd he need help for it either.

But before Taries knew it she was walking away as he stood a bit speechless. He blinked water out of his face as he opened his mouth. "Hey....uh...I'm fine you don't have to go..." he said in his low mellow strong voice. He hadn't an idea of what to say or do really, he had to just remember that she wasn't a lioness of his pride. But he still had no idea of how a lioness would act otherwise. He didn't understand her submissive retreat either.

His ears twitched and his eyes lingered to the side he had heard mutters from someone. A male? Taries wasn't going to acknowledge him unless he wanted to be so he looked back at the female, still standing as he took as much weight as he could off his left shoulder.

[Nakisisa]

I'm fine you don't have to go.... When was the last time someone had said those words to her? Never the voice in her head said to her. Now how should I act? Flurtious? Aggressive? Herself? the voice in her head said again. Her mind was a hive with activity, yet only one thought repeated itself, until she realized, He's a relativly uninjered Male, who is obviousley a rouge. What will he do to me?

"O... Ok" Jata said weakly, laying her ears flat against her head. "I... I'm Jata, who are you?" Jata said stammering. Looking at him, she saw something. He looked amazing, yet she wouldent tell him that yet. She was a rouge, and so was he, they had hard lives, and she didn't want to show weakness, and make their lives any harder. Yet at any rate.

[xscar10]

"What do I do? It looks like I should go over there... dang." Hofu decided.

"I hope I don't frighten them." He tried to sum up the courage to go, and started pacing back and forth.

(I'm using my new, evil chari for this ;D)

Mvuni was wandering around the plains in search of anyone else he could get into a fight with. That usually meant killing them but it was a different way of putting it. He was about to lie down and rest for a while when he caught the scent of his favourite thing. Blood. A sly smile made it's way onto his scar riddled face as he made his way towards them. He then slower down as he sighted three rogues. One lioness and two lions. "Oh, how I love a challenge." he whispered to himself.

[Txep'Kxetse]

Taries noticed her nerviousness and slightly dropped his head with a sigh. He really wasn't use to a female not chewing him out already for just standing here doing nothing. He looked back at her, "It's nice to meet you Jata I am Taries KnightScar...Uh Taries for short. " He purposely failed to mention he was a exiled prince of the KnightScar pride. He wasn't to proud of it.

He perked his ears and lifted his head looking around he smelt a third second male around and from the scent he could tell it wasn't a friendly fellow. Taries grumbled a bit as he could sense that the newest guy was looking for a fight. Through his years of training he had learned well that you did not need to see or talk to a lion to know their intensions. Their scent can be a dead give away.

The brute looked over to the pacer that was making a fool of himself going back and forth, he shook his head then looked at Jata, "We have an unfriendly friend near you better watch out. " He warned her as he was sure she didn't have the deadly skills of the females back at home. His light blue eyes glared in the direction of the foe as the rain became a pouring shower that was hard to see in now.

[thegunner18]

Mvuni stopped as he saw that one of them could sense he was there. It was then that the rain started pouring down. "Oooh rain, my favourite type of weather." he said to himself. He dropped down as he got closer to the three of them, the lioness inparticular. She looked the weakest out of them.

As Mvuni neared the group, making not a sound, he got close enough to pounce on the lioness. He made his final adjustments and pounced on it, bringing up his unsheathed claws for the final blow.

[xscar10]

Hofu was still pacing, when he saw another lion pounce at the lioness. He opened his jaws as wide, and far as he could, and roared. It was a haunting, and disturbing roar, further distorted by the rain.
His jaw still wide open, he ran over to them; the fear inspiring image of a ghostly lion running toward him would be hard to forget. As he neared he landed his paw on his stomach lifting him up, but not hurting him badly.
"You had best leave here stranger. I do not allow someone to get hurt, especially a female." He said not looking at Jata.

[Nakisisa]

"And what's that supposed to mean?" Jata asked, rather demanded. "I can take care of myself" she said, almost hissing. Her tail swishing agitatidely, and her eyes alight with fire, she sniffed the air. She also smelled the newest lion, growling, she let out an ear splitting roar, letting the new guy know, they had already claimed the land

[xscar10]

"I never said you couldn't." Hofu said not understanding what she meant. She then roared at the attacker.

"I'm guessing she's angry, so it would be best to leave." Hofu said as if to a freind.

[thegunner18]

Mvuni smirked at the three of them. "And what makes you think I will leave?" he asked while pacing around them. "I'm not weak unlike the one i was about to kill." he motioned to the lioness. "I'm not exactly what you would call...a normal lion either. My eyes for example, and also my front shoulders, if you haven't already noticed." he continued walking around them. "You can call me Death's servant and that's probably the last thought to go through your head."

[Txep'Kxetse]

Taries hissed hating the sight infront of him. "Pathetic whelp attacking a female that isn't as strong as you!!!" He roared charging the distracted lion "Don't ever brag your looks they never help in a fight." Taries speed was to acute and fast from being on edge his whole life before Mvuni could react he slashed his paw across the male's face hard enough to turn it just like a punch then he aim to bite right into the scarred shoulder the lion had pointed out. Taries didn't take a chunk out but left a scarring four toothed gash over it.

In another swift move before male brought up his head Taries quickly lifted his hind legs claws bared as he gave a forceful kick to the male's chest pushing him back and most likely down. Taries readied himself for Mvuni's counter attack now as started to circle him, Taries took no notice of Hofu's ghastly looks he was to engaged on the fight.

[thegunner18]

Mvuni fell down onto one leg letting his mane fall over his eyes. He shook his head in amusement, silently watching the blood drip down from his shoulder and onto the floor. "Disposing of the weak is my mission from death himself. You don't want to get in his way." He looked up at the lion who attacked him with renowned anger and determination. "You aren't related to her in anyway, so move and let me carry on with my mission, or I'll have to kill you as well, which i'm actually resisting myself from doing at the moment. I might just let myself go wild and satisfy my bloodlust."

[xscar10]

"Dude, you're diturbing." Hofu said squinting one eye.

"But as long as I'm here you wont hurt anyone." He said mellowly. He smiled not knowing how scary it was.

[Txep'Kxetse]

Taries hated talkers they were so annoying. He hissed again and gave no answer as even though he loved to fight and watch fights he hated unfair ones. Mvuni and Jata were definately unfair. With a low roar Taries edged toward him, he wouldn't answer Taries never talked in a fight. Seeing his opponent was being to slow to get up he took the advantage and charged him from the side. Taries was now to the left of the two watchers as he quickly ran at Mvuni. With a swift move he jump to the side paw extended, nearly jumping over Mvuni as his entire five claws gripped undernieth the back of his jaw and pulled slanted upward across his entire side of his mussle.

Taries then disappeared into the darkness in the tall grass the pooring rain cutting out any sound he made as he turned to circle. He normally didn't disappear in a fight but if he could distract the male so at least the female could run. Taries cared nothing if he lived or died now, technically he had no reason to anymore. But he'd still give a hell of a fight. He waited to see what the sick minded creature would do after his last attack.

[thegunner18]

Mvuni winced in pain as he was slashed across the cheek down into the muscle. "Thanks for that, i appreciate it. Another scar to add to the collection it would seem." He then glanced up and looked around, letting an evil smile etch itself onto his face, seeing that Taries had disappeared, most probably into the grass. He looked at Jata and slowly made his way towards her. "Now I only have two of you to deal with." he unsheathed his claws, expecting an attack at any time.

[xscar10]

"What do you have to gain from this, what if the point to this? All I see is a tortured soul, who has known no true love. Prove me wrong if you can, because I hate seeing sadness portrayed as anger. I probably sound like a fool to you, but you look like fools to me." Hofu said more concerned than angry.

"I don't want to stay just to see more of what I stand against." He walked over to Mvuni, and placed a paw on his scared shoulder.

"You say you are death's servant, but what do you know about him? Did you know that he is the prserver of balance, not just the bringer of death? His job is to take a life to make room for a new one, did you know that?" He said, as if to a freind.

[Txep'Kxetse]

Taries snarled as he seen this arogant creatures intension hadn't changed. He didn't intend to kill but he was definately going to injure this creature somehow to make it weak even if it was temperary. Taries circled around to the sides of Jata and Hofu, he still wasn't able to be seen. " Jata RUN, you are no match for him!!" He said a deep commanding voice from the darkness, surprising himself he sounded alot like his father when he gave orders to the pride.

Taries hissed slowly creeping closer to Mvuni. "Every creature has the right to live, you are not a god to choose who lives!" He snarled at the opressing male. Maybe words would distract him better. Either way he intended to protect Jata at the least he would make sure she'd live. Taries was a bit dumbfounded by Hofu's actions, didn't he understand Mvuni could just in one blow kill him for being so close. Is this lion a priest or something Taries thought looking at the distorted creature but keeping attentions on Mvuni.

[thegunner18]

Mvuni snarled as Hofu put a paw on his shoulder. He slowly turned around and then suddenly back pawed him leaving claw marks across his face. "Don't make me kill you as well. I would love to do that. My temper is nearly broken."

Mvuni then looked around the grass, knowing Taries was somewhere in there. "Why don't you come out and fight again? Don't you want your girlfriend here seeing you die by my own hands? But then again, she won't be alive much longer." he looked at Jata again and sprinted at her. When he was in range, he swiped up with his paw, claws unsheathed, connecting with her face, then repeating that on the otherside of her face.

[Txep'Kxetse]

(hey lets wait we need Jata's reactions to everything before Mvuni does anything that'll p*** Nakisisa off to bad)

[thegunner18]

(lol swearing reported to admin XD Yah, i was going to wait anyway)
(Changed it now have you )

[Txep'Kxetse]

( oh yes I need to keep myself in check at times. )

[Nakisisa]

(( Please, don't god mod, that includes causing injuries. I didn't want a scar, but ill let it slip ))

Jata turned her head after the swipes landed, spitting out some blood in her mouth. Looking back at the male assailant she spoke, her tone dangerous. "Never, Ever" She said preparing herself, "Touch Me AGAIN!" she roared, swiping the male's paws from under him. Quickly after this, Jata jumped high up and landed on the male's body, winding herself slightly from the blow. quickly parting the males mane she spoke, "On false move and you die." she said, placing her jaw, with her razor sharp teeth around the males Neck.

[xscar10]

"Why doesn't anyone understand anything, but the language of violence." Hofu said to himself.

"If you only want to kill each other, I'll move along. I know when I'm not needed." Hofu said as he started to leave.

"You can pretend you are strong, but he who lives by the sword dies by the sword." Hofu said walking away.

[thegunner18]

((Sorry! I knew you wouldn't have liked that. If you didn't want it you don't need to have it.))

Mvuni just laughed to himself. "I Don't think you realize what i'm capable of doing. I'm not your average pushover you know, and I think your boyfriend over there...." he said, gesturing to Taries. "...already knows about that." His voice turned into a lower tone. "now kindly let me out." On that last word he kicked Jata in the knee twice, forcing her mouth to open and quickly getting out.

[Txep'Kxetse]

"Hey preacher guy... Thought you said you wouldn't let a lioness be hurt in your presence. You've failed at that already Spiritual man!!" Taries snarled at Hofu for just leaving obviously not caring if you could have prevented death or not.

With quick and deadly speed Taries sprinted in shouldering Mvuni in the rib cage as he bit into the soft skin right infront of the male's hip clamping down with his large deadly teeth. He rapped his arms around digging his claws into Mvuni's flesh as he jerked his head side to side at his flesh clamped in Taries teeth.

(sorry Gunner if this is god modding I can change it if you please I just didn't know what else to put means this is a fight and its hard not to have god modding if there is actual physical contact.)

[Kirsui]

((If you are worried of god modding, you can always PM the other player and ask them if doing this or that to the other character is ok or not. :3 For now you can let it go like this though since this is the practice area.))

[xscar10]

"As has already been proven, you, he, and her all care little, if at all, for eachother. I couldn't have prevented death if I wanted to." Hofu said turning to them.

"Look at yourself, you attack eachother, when you could have easely avoided it. As I see it, either pride blinds you, or there is somthing to fight for. It would be unfair to fight a blind man, and far be it for me to stand in the way of a man on a misson." He looked at them fighting.

"I think as bad as I look, you look worse to me, don't get me wrong, I'm not angry, feel bad for you." Hofu turned and started to walk again.
