<span style='width:100%;font-weight:bold; font-size:10px'>Out of Character</span> <table class=ooc><tr><td>Sorry, thought a few other that are in would post and on the week I could have seem to hit me with a stomach flu. Yes it was a bad week. :( </td></tr></table> "More of a welcome back than otherwise." Nadyna chucked slightly, standing on her feet, "This excututor became a sanuctary in one of my nocti days, but brings more pleasant memories every time I thought of it." It slipped her notice of the Cucu in the scene. There was a few spots she remembered how wild ones like to be stroked in which, back in that day, gain her some friendship. One spot was on the top of the neck and close the ears that was hard to find, she remembered making a few mistakes with it. Another was on the right side of the tail, but that area was consider more sexual than friendly, her knowledge only came on a rare occurance of walking upon a couple. She slipped from her detracting calculations to remember a uneasy feeling in Paush not too long ago. "You seems spooked when I mentioned the caverns. I didn't think anyone else could know of them, much less find them. I hope I didn't stumbled on a temple you know. Well, that would be a lie on its own." She lifted her eyes in confident, hoping for a fumble or a slip on his part. However, those that confidence she sighed from her daedal boredom.
<span style='color:red'>You might have, but if you had gone there more then once you most likely didn't. If there was anything in there it would be a pack of Cucu's or a family of Anubi. Caverns are not common but both Anubi and Cucu make full use of them. You may have been here before but the Uhai has more to hid then you could ever imagine. If you ever did find a temple you would know it. I will say no more, except don't go seeking the temples, you will not find them.</span> Paush smirked, he almost slipped. She most likely had just found the old residental caverns which some of the less fortunate Anubi used to stay in. Unless she was a halfling it was unlikely she found anything else but that. He had to be careful though, more dragons were finding the temples and not coming out of them. He worried for everyone of them, he hoped those who didn't make it out...rest in peace...
"You mean the one hides itself into as a small rock when others glance upon at it, a glass temple shaped by a flaming wall that scalded, if not burn to ash to anyone not of blood, or perhaps the one consists of a mere fountain of violet water, drinking it either brings one's soul a temple cased betwixt bounds of Forminia or a good three week nap?" She queried with a feigning tone of mischief. "You worry too much...." Nadyna retorted, "Once, there this dark desert of a cavern with a old structure that I scatched my ta--" she stopped and avoided mentioning the little sepentine part as it might be troublesome, "my leg when I was camping around here last Mia...it had old records of such things, but I never search for either of them. It's not my business unless someone make it...and that most unlikely. But the stories in there are quite interes--" Somehow she lost a nerve a bit, thinking about that how she tranlated some of those writing in the first place "To me, that is...like I was meant t--Oh forget it. I just remembered that I couldn't tranlate some of it. " ...but some of it I didn't know I could tranlate Now mentaining that last temple had spoked errie memories from her first visit there, remembering that she couldn't sleep for ten days afterwards. Oh, there were many victims that had to endured her insormia in the torture chamber and they had the scars to prove it. Another made her question a bit on why she perfers this place more than others, even her own home at times. She could only guess that wanting to learn at least a little of an idea of the other side of her half exists naturally, even if 'a little' can be an understatment. "One stories that seem to reveal itself from an old tale, a fable maybe, about the Jackel and the Snake." A random statement, but she needed to distract herself from recalling the dream temple or Dusa Dyp Pjaun revealence or Paush pushing on about her nerve about the matter any further. Why she felt she needed to mention it at all? It slipped as if by force...and she never liked being forced.
<span style='color:red'>How the hell did she know the Anubi language?!</span> Paush thought, someone must of broken The Code, but the Temple Owners would have seen to it that they were killed before they could say anything. One word was all that she most likely knew, so it wouldn't hurt to much, her death would be rather painful though eventally. As it was forbidden for others that were not Anubi to know, the Owners would kill all those who found out, painfully, slowly or just torture or make a slave, slave would be the best for her. Hopefully her undoer would be Hathor, for then he may be able to give her some hope. <span style='color:red'>Do not speak to anyone of what you have translated. You may not let it leave this desert. For if tell even one letter, you will die suddenly and painfully on that instant. What you have learned has now indangered your life. Speak not of it, not even to the Anubi, unless you are in a temple...One which you have not listed. The temples will find you. Your life is in great danger, I don't know how this happened, but now your own life will be changed</span> Paush worried for this one now, the 13 would know of her, they would have seen it. Her life was in great danger. The temples of the 13 were never written about, and any Anubi would say it was just a myth. She was in great danger, so great it was beyond words.
Kyofu shook her head slowly and lifted herself up from the cross of the palm tree and runs her hands along the side of her face before looking into the direction of Paush. Kyofu merely shakes her head at the old fool of a drama queen, being all dramatic and everything. "You get carried away with the old ways to much Paush. Hell you're getting as bad as the others beneath the sands." She spoke with a spat turning her eyes back towards Nadyna looking upon her. Kyofu eyes slipped shut suddenly and she leaned back against the tree crossing over her arms in a relaxed state of mind. But her peace was short as the decaying smell of flesh came into her nostials. She shook her head lightly and opened her eyes once more looking off into the direction of the smell. What on Ramath-lehi could it have been that sank so bad? Her question was shortly answered as that of green flames surrounded the thin form of a Anubis. Her eyes narrowed a bit as it came closer to the watering hole, causing the foul smell to become that much stronger. But just as she was about to look away her eyes widened at the site of someone that she killed centuries ago! Back when the desert was still young. "It can't be...you're dead! I killed you centuries ago! You aren't real!" She spoke towards the 'dragon as it came into view lifting up the two glazed eyes towards Kyofu. The Anubian smirked at her with black teeth as his eyes looked into Kyofu's with a vengeful gaze. "You may have killed the body...but you can never kill the soul..." he spoke throwing out a rotted fleshed hand towards Kyofu causing the same black Hell Chains to come from his flesh and bound her to the trunk of the tree. He eyes remained locked on that of Kyofu's as she stared back into his with fear, something that she hasn't expressed in centuries...maybe never in her life.
Paush's eyes snapped to Kyofu's attacker. <span style='color:red'>"Who are you? I am High Priest Sihathor of the Sand temple. What is your buisness here and why do you attack Lady Kyofu?"</span> Suddenly, his shadow rose up with red eyes and turned to the form of an Anubi...ish. A Koroshiya had revealed itself <span style='color:purple'>"I know you..."</span> It said in a double toned almost evil voice. It circled the attacker, its end still attached to Paush's feet. Paush froze in fear, she had never done this before. He didn't know what to think...This could be good or bad. He really didn't have an opinion yet, she was usually content with just talking to him or hiding in his real shadow, but now she was out and talking. He was really worried about what she would reveal with an outsider around...the outsider was doomed to die anyway so he might not have to worry...
His eyes never drifted away from that of Kyofu as he tightened the chains about her. "If you know who I am...then you must know what I have to do." He spoke as the other hand morphed and became a long metallic blade. He approached the bound Kyofu as she stared back at him still in shock from seeing his face after centuries of sleep. Kyofu screeched aloud and slipped her eyes closed as she extended her fingertips out. She gasps aloud and that of the same chains come from her hands and act as dueling blades hacking the arm that was attached to the chains off then knocking the ghoul away. She winces a bit and the chains that binded her body to the tree change to sand and blow away. She drops down onto the ground and winces a bit reaching her upper set of arms about herself and the lower set begin to channel fire into both palms. She throws them out away from her causing them to come down on the ghoul, burning him away as quickly as he came. She winced once more and drew her knees up against her chest, just staring at the rotting paw on the ground. "He...he is alive...he isn't going to stop until I'm dead..." she spoke as she sat there looking to the paw.
<span style='color:purple'>So typical...</span> She slinked back and became one with Paush's shadow once more. Paush sighed, his own danger had passed. She was both a blessing and a curse that he had to live with. Now he must figure out who this goul is because she wouldn't tell him. It might be an old friend... Or an old enemy <span style='color:red'>Who is he? Why is he after you? He was so mutilated I could not reconize his face.</span> He said turning to Kyofu who was cowering on the ground. He had never seen her like this. Nor any of the ones whos age is unknown. <span style='color:red'>And why do you fear him like death itself?</span> Fear...He never understood it, he only had it when it was the secrets of the Anubi and others would find out about it. Now he saw it in someone he thought never had it. Death was not something he feared, though he did avoid it quite well. His arms were scared from near death experiences, and battle. More battle then anything else though. He had dealt with Death enough in his time...from his one visit to Earth that changed they're history slightly in one part of the world. To all kinds of other things that had gone on here in this desert.
Kyofu lifts her eyes up from the hand looking to Paush before turning her eyes back to the hand again. "He was a pendragon...well Anubian anyway that I killed centuries ago. He was one of the temple guardians that locked me away into my own temple away from the population." She spoke turning her eyes back towards the hand that was no more. She leans her head down against her knees with her blue flames dying off, leaving just her short dark fur beneath. She shakes her head lightly and sighs before drawing his head back from her knees and standing up from the ground. She moves over towards where the ghoul fell and rubs her foot on the ground. "He is Shiva Avihs...and he is back for revenge against me now..." She spoke crossing her arms over and shivering a bit.
She simply lowered her eyes, "You'll be surpised how cursed I am to live...I don't even know my own mother or the dumb second blood she gave me. Maybe I come here to see how close am I into finding it...yet I find another stupid death promise that has entertained me more for my 'lovely' lifetime. Thank you Paush, for informing yet another disgusting waste of my ti--" Murmuring below her tone, her depostion didn't even flinched until this green dragon appeared to them. Nadyna had a little fear at the moment while these dragon exchange moments, not hearing the details of any of them...but that fear will vaguely short, as it was stabbed into the heart with a furious rage that was always wanting a reason to flame out of out-of-control" "How....bothersome." Nadyna glared at this meeting harshly, "For one thing, I have no idea why the hell I find myself with your pointy ears dogs or your lousy buildings that seem to jump at me since you vokchylat are too busy with your whisperings. As far as I see your secrets hush-hush, you can take it and bury it into the sand along yourselves for all Ramath-lehi's gives a rat's ass on what is it....I'm see that I'm no longer required to enterain so I'll be on my own way for all I see I believe you should all considered a head check." Whipping the sand angrliy as she stood with her tail, she walked off to leave, "Stupid ancient epeyst! don't even know their left from their own arse, now I don't even want to know what breeding I came from now." She hissed under her breath as she walked off. This blows...maybe I should kill somthing
A wall of sand comes up out of the sand and bars Nadyna's way of exiting. A laugh could be heard coming from beneath the sand as that of the green flamed ghoul, lifted himself up out of it and all in one piece. He throws his head back and takes a deep breath before looking back over towards Nadyna. His glares a bit upon her as his foot comes to rest upon the sandy surface once more. He shifts his weight a bit and walks towards Nadyna reaching out his chilled fleshed hand waving it around in around in a circle, causing the black chains to come from the ground and take hold of her legs. "So...you come to the party and leave...just like that? No very pendragon of you." He spoke as his black lifeless eyes drifted over her backside. He takes another step forward dropping his hand back to his side walking around to where he was infront of her, looking down into her eyes. "I felt something within you...Nadyna...something that sparked my interest..." he spoke with a fork tongue as it slipped out along his lips. He waved his hand out once more and the wall of sand dropped down behind him. "It's so close to fear...but it had kind of a kick to it. More like a hidden secret that your not aware of...something that picks at the back of your mind to the point of driving you mad." He spoke with a light smirk shooking his black glass looking teeth.
Paush was now fully alert. This was not good...A temple guardian back for revenge. He was now not happy with the situation. He was now on edge. He was hopeing it wouldn't come to this. His eyes at this point were glowing vibrantly <span style='color:red'>Leave her alone! She has done nothing to you nor does she have anything to do with your problems! So leave her be Guardian your problems are with Kyofu not this madien!</span> As Paush spoke behind his back a portal opened and a giant black serphant like dragon appeared, it had red eyes like Paush but had a pointed dragon like head. It was very large and was poised to attack. Its claws were black like the rest of it. The whole this quavered like it was made up of pure Fromnia. It hissed with its mouth shut, it was not a pretty sight if you were on the oppisate side of it. <span style='color:red'>This is the Serphant Dragon, would you like to meet it? Guardian stick to your priorities, do not meddle with the Outsider. If you do you will meet your match...</span>
Shiva lifted his empty hollowed out eyes and looked upon Paush as he stood there. Shakes his head lightly and looks back to Nadyna searching her eyes again without so much as a word to him. His other hand comes up on the side of her face before he took a step forward drawing her into a light hug, feeling her hidden energy. He smirks a bit and leans his face against hers before drawing back and slipping his hand down along his side. "Don't jump your boundries holyman! She is very much my business as much as the next person! So if you would be so kind to shutting your vokcemd hole! Mind your own business." He spoke turning his eyes away from Paush back to her. Shiva when abck to Nadyna looking into her eyes, feeling a familiar presents of another that once was in the Circle of Protect as he. If he was only able to peel back the pendragon that stood before him...just to see beneath the surface, he might know of her or rather the part of her spirit anyway. But sadly he was interrupted by the sudden feel of hot breath against his cool dead flesh. His ears folded back and he shook his head lightly in disagreement with this force. "Sorry to breathe it to you old timer...but she isn't so much of an 'outsider'. She is very much Anubian as much as you and I." He spoke to Paush flexing his shoulders out causing the bones of his shoulder blades to break skin, allowing his dark, dead blood to pour out of him. Gradulately causing Hell Chains to come from beneath the surface around the dragon at his back, but not striking.
When the wall came in here her path, she was completely willing to smash a hole right though. Stone walls and pillars have never been a limit of what her fist have destroyed so how would a sand wall hold to her irrational rage. This mystery was not meant to be solved after the chain immobilized her legs, with a concentation of some sort dark spiritial energies course from them. "How dare you..." She was already in bad mood enough for her poison glands to build it enough for it to partcipate around her frontal fangs that were exposed she bared her teeth in anger. With enough sense she realized what was happening and calm down reducently, controling her venom to suit her need this time, when Paush gave enough distraction. Her need spat out a florent green fluid on the blacks chain that began crackle as its spirirtal flow was cut from its owner. The chain shattered to the lack of power. "Me? An Anubi? I doubt that fact as much as your ability to bind me" Nadyna sneered as she bought out a small pillar a sand which she jumped onto with her wings speading out slightly. "I'm estaticated to learn how you going to prove your case, ghoul. Whether its convenicing to scare me or vague enough to make me produced another batch of anti-spirital venom."
Paush was just a little disturbed by the venom thing. Just a tiny bit...She was very powerful then saying most of his powers were spritiual or darkness. He was interested in what the Guardian had to say though. There were very few of them left and the ones that were left were not very kind. It is thought that his own Koroshiya is or was a Guardian at some point as it does take the form of an Anubi. Paush reveals none of its secrets so no one knows. <span style='color:red'>What do you mean? There are few half breeds in this world and there are even fewer that know any words of the Anubi. You know that...Every Anubi respects that. That is one of the highest laws and the Anubi still hold true to it.</span> Paush spoke with the upmost confidence. He knew his people well, he still lived among them when not dealing with the outside world too. He mainly kept in contact with priests and things but there could be dealings that go deeper into the hearts of the desert that no one knew of. He was a slightly shady character at times, most of the time he was just a high ranking Anubi though. The Serphant Dragon still loomed over his shoulder threateningly, it was not his strongest summon...but it did its job well. It looked threatening and it was large enough to be a threat. Its glowing red eyes were a nice touch too.
Shiva looked towards Nadyna for the longest time as she seemed to still be in the dark about whom she was. He gave her a light glare before reaching his hand up over his face and conbusting into dark green flames disspelling the dragon and chains that riddled the ground. "A shame I can't hang around longer than this...but the desert winds are taking a heavy toll on my already ruined body. He spoke drawing his back rom his face with his eyes rolled over white looking upon Nadyna then past her towards the still sitting Kyofu. He shakes his head lightly and slips his eyes shut whispering a few words into Nadyna's direction to keep Kyofu close, but not to close and then he was gone just like that. Nothing of his being was left there, not even the fine smell of his decayed flesh. Kyofu winced lightly and looked over towards Paush and Nadyna noticing the nightmarish ghoul was no more. She sighed softly and lifted herself up from the sands brushing off slowly before looking off into the direction of the distant dunes. She has to get back to her place amongst the Black Sands, but without so much as a guide or a way to do so...she was lost. He eyes drifted shut and the flare of her energy blasted up about her again ingulfing her figure in flame again. It was a calming feel to have such energy...that she can't even keep it contained within the body. "Sleep...that is what I need...sleep." She spoke aloud not even caring if anyone was paying attention. She took a light breathe and moved off into the direction of the drifting sands, just to go and wander again, without aimless cause.
<span style='color:red'>I thought he was dead...she told me he was dead...both of them told me he was dead! Are they both decived? This is an interesting turn of events. So there are more hidden secrets then I have been told, I have been decived. Damn it...</span> Paush never liked being decived he wistled and the white cat appeared again. He wispered something to it and it bounded off. He was definatly unhappy with his current situation...A half dead Guardian was in the desert. This could not be good for his state of mind. He turned to Kyofu and shook his head. If she feared him, it was beyond his own power. The only one she could think of that could help would mostlikely say no...She never did like doing things that made her come outside.
