She growled then smirked. She heaved a sarcastic sigh and scratched the side of her head in annoyance. <span style='color:aqua'>It's ice... Of all the things...</span> She swiped a paw infront of her, directing it at the oversized icicles. They seemed to whrith for a moment before crumbling. That was the only thing she had learned to do in crykenisis class... Of all the years of practice in it... it was the only thing she had ever mastered how to do... She had been taught how to use her powers in her clan befor eleaving to come to the school... The school taught differently.. but she had been determined to learn... Day after day of blisters and almost loss of her fingers.... she still tryed... She crouched and sprang after him. She was as stuborn as an Ox! She wasn't going to let her first love get away from her so easily. Even if his brother didn't want somethng horrible to happen... Well screw him... She though.
Talon groaned. Obviously this would be harder than he thought. He began running towards the dorms, randomly spewing fireballs and icicles backwards via the blade of his partisan. He would have to find his dorm and enter before she caught up, else everything would go wrong... He MUST prevent her from contacting Xavier... He knew he must take the most drastic measure. Tapping into the power of his spirit, a power Xavier had not learned to do, Talon began firing back sludgy piles of dark energy, along with blasts that resembled his fireballs from before. They would trip up or smother Femp if she was hit, and it was a risk he was willing to take to prevent everything from falling down around him...
For Femp's smallness came in handy. She flew and dodged the blasts back her her. Her growled and sped up. Geting closer and closer to Talon and Xavior. She was startled at the dark blasts. She nearly got hit by a few. She swirved out and around them as they came towards her. She was only a few feet behind them, just barely missing his shots now. She was too close to beable to dodge them properly. Luckily for her she dadged them all just barely. She put on a burst of speed and slammed into Talon. <span style='color:aqua'>When you tempt me.. I don't give up...</span> She mumbled as she knocked him over by the force of slamming into him. (not that there really was much for but she must have him him when he was on one foot or something)
Talon fell head over heels, just about to turn the corner. Xavier slid lightly off his back and came to a stop by the corner, but Talon continued on, and slammed gut first into a pole on which a small statue rested. The statue toppled and landed on Talon's shoulder before shattering. Talon groaned and sat up, just as Xavier came to. <span style='color:red'>Where the hell am I?</span> A groggy Xavier asked, staring directly at Talon where he lay gasping for breath...
Femp groaned for she had first slammed into Talon... Then slammed into the floor. The lay on her back. She sat up and rubbed the back of her head. She looked up at the sound of Xaviors voice. She pointed to his brother accusingly. <span style='color:aqua'>Wanna know how you got their? Well it's all his doing.</span> She made a small sound as she found a bump on the back of her head. <span style='color:aqua'>Ow....</span> She stood up and didn't feel sorry for Talon one bit for having the statue fall on him... <span style='color:aqua'>You deserve that... Trying to break us apart... you lowly Rapine dirt!</span> She growled at him.
Talon sat up, holding his gut. His robes were in dissarray, and his hair was in his face. He stood up, and after pushing his hair behind his ears, looked over at Xavier. Xavier responded by begining to shout at him. <span style='color:red'>WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING?!</span> He screamed, before realising it was the middle of the night. He stared angrily at Talon for a moment, and then helped Femp up. <span style='color:orange'>Xavier please, you have to understand, it would put us in danger of exposure, and we'd be kicked out of school.</span> Xavier stared at him for another few moments. <span style='color:red'>I don't give a damn, I'd rather go back to our old lifestyle, but obviously you don't want it that way do you?</span> He spun on his heel, and turned to face Femp. <span style='color:red'>You alright?</span> He asked, as Talon gazed sadly at his partisan, lying on the floor a few inches from his thigh...
Femp nodded. <span style='color:aqua'>I'm fine... just a little bump on the head thats all.</span> She said with a lgiht smile. It disapeared as she looked to Talon. She looked back at Xavior and shook her head. <span style='color:aqua'>I can't believe THATs your brother... Well he certainly ruined his first impression...</span> She said as she sneered at him.
Talon sighed and shook his head. <span style='color:orange'>Xavier, I'll leave you to your own devices, but please, keep our secret, and tell your girlfriend that as well...</span> He picked up his partisan, finished straightening out his robes and walked briskly off. He knew he had rushed in too recklessly, but there was nothing to be done about it now... He just hoped that Xavier would at least TRY to keep their secret a secret... <span style='color:red'>Sorry bout that, he's a bit too serious, he thinks that if anyone finds out about our spirits, or anything about our 'questionable' past we'll get kicked out immediately...</span> He brushed himself off, and picked Femp up in a big embrace. <span style='color:red'>I'm so sorry for everything... From now on I warn you about everything ahead of time</span> He smiled and set her down gently... <span style='color:red'>But I don't think my brother will be too happy about us hanging out around my dorm... heh heh... What do you wanna do now? Or are you worn out for the night?</span>
Femp winced slightly at the tight embrace. She chuckled when she let him down. <span style='color:aqua'>That might be nice...</span> She said with a smirk. She took a deep breath and sighed her answer. <span style='color:aqua'>I'm beat! holy... i feel like my wings are going to fall off... </span> OOC: woah... short.. ^^;
<span style='color:red'>How bout that piggyback now? heh heh...</span> Xavier asked with a grin, used to being active for more than weeks at a time. He wasn't feeling even a bit of fatigue, even from his transformation earlier. <span style='color:red'>You can show me where your dorm is I guess? And I can drop you off there? Or do you want to see where my dorm is, for next time?</span>
She chuckled and shook her head. <span style='color:aqua'>I don't have one yet... remember?</span> She chuckled lightly and nodded at the offer of a piggy back. <span style='color:aqua'>I guess i'll see your's? For next time...</span> She smiled as she hopped onto his back... barely making a weight difference.
Xavier grinned, and then was jogging down the corridors towards the dorms. He began getting a little crazy, leaping off walls, sliding down banisters, and leaping over statues and walls. <span style='color:red'>Are you thinking you should have said no?</span> Xavier asked as he leaped the railing of a two story spiral staircase and landed on his feet below. After a quick glance up to see how far he really jumped, he bolted off again, hanging onto Femp's thighs securely to prevent her from slipping. He continuied on like this for awhile, before skidding to a halt at the door of a dorm room. <span style='color:red'>Wild enough? I took the long way around.</span> Xavier explained, and then opened the door to the dorm, revealing the crowded 4 person room. Talon was lying on his bed tinkering with a small clock, and two others were nowhere to bhe seen... <span style='color:red'>Here's home, for now...</span> Xavier said, proudly, leading her over to his bed, with shelves covered with weapons on shelves, posters of assasins, and a small picture of Talon and him together, taken when they were only 5 or 6 years old...
Femp closed her eyes, afraid to see what he was jumping over, sliding down and such. She was laughing. She opened her eyes and yelled with delight. It was light a 'dragon rollercoaster... okay well he WAS like a 'dragon rollercoast at the moment. She was laughing so hard she could hardly breathe. <span style='color:aqua'>No! I love this! Whee!</span> When they reached his dorm she felt unusually nervous... She smiled when she saw the picture of Talon and Xavior as kids. She picked it up and turned to smile at Xavior. <span style='color:aqua'>You guys are so cute... How old were you in this?</span> She smiled at the two youngs kids smiling back at her from the picture.
Xavier thought hard for a moment. <span style='color:red'>I dunno actually... We were pretty young, it was taken by a friend in the village we moved to after our original home was destroyed and everyone else killed... How old were we Tal?</span> He looked over to Talon, who ceased his tinkering and sat up. <span style='color:orange'>We were only Seven...</span> Talon said, and then after thinking himself for a moment, spoke again. <span style='color:orange'>Listen, you two, as much as I can say I don't approve, I'll be behind you one hundred percent behind you. Be happy, live long, as long as it doesn't ruin my life because of either of you telling Xavier and my secret...</span> He smiled sincerly, and laid back down on his bed, prodded a single button on the clock, and it exploded in an array of lights, showering the room in a torrent of reds, blue, greens, yellows, and purples, all the colors of a rainbow, in a clock... It was almost like a signal for Xavier and Femp to be happy...
Femp watched in amasement at the clock lights. She smiled at Talon, a smiled that said, "don't worry." She was happy Talon would let them be with their lives, for now at least... She looked back at the picture and smiled back at it... It seemed pretty cheery for Talon. She put it back on the shelf and and turned to Xavior. She wabted to just hug him so ahrd... She knew she would never be able to accomplish a hug that told him how she felt right now. She wouldn't have the stregth... She chuckled mentaly at herself.
Xavier stared at Talon, his mouth open in shock. Since when was Talon not such a hard ass?! He nodded, grinning slightly, and then grabbed Femp in an hug. <span style='color:red'>No more waiting for approval, it seems... You got somewhere to stay tonight?</span> He set her, down, and then opened his arms and looked to the sky. <span style='color:red'>THANK YOU!!!</span> He shouted, and then fell silent...
Femp smiled happily as Xavior took her up in his arms. She felt like she was going to melt! When her let her down her face was slightly flushed. <span style='color:aqua'>No... I have no where i need to be. I usually just find and place... and sleep.. ha ha...</span> She chuckled at herself. She giggled at his praise to the sky's.
<span style='color:orange'>If you really need somewhere to stay, you two can have the dorm, I have some errands to run anyways...</span> Talon said, with just a hint of sarcasim, before snatching his partisan, walking out, and slamming the door behind him. Xavier stood stock still, completely blank as to what to say next....
Femp winced as the door slammed. She stuck her tongue out at the door. She chuckled and looked at Xavior, pointing her thumb at the door. <span style='color:aqua'>Does he always wake up on the cranky side of the bed?</span> She shook her head. <span style='color:aqua'>Nevermind... I shouldn't be saying that... He just.. partially aproved eh? </span> She smiled and then yawned a large yawn, showing all her little teeth. she laughed. <span style='color:aqua'>I guess all this has taken quite a bit out of me... Not used to having so much fun</span>
Xavier stared blankly at her for a moment. <span style='color:red'>You call causing tons of mischief, having me transform, and running around the school in the middle of the night fun? You're more like me than I thought... </span> He said, his face spread out in the biggest grin yet. <span style='color:red'>I think I'm gonna head to bed. Just in case there's a problem, I'll take Talon's, you can have mine, andif he comes back, he can have the floor... heh heh...</span> He plopped down on Talon's bed, but for some reason couldn't fall asleep. He just stared at the ceiling, thinking of nothing but total blackness...
