Current Day: 47 Current Quarter/Month: Mia Current Year: 81378 Mika walked slowly, eyes downcast, heading towards the temple. Her mind hurt, but more so, her heart. Ignoring the mild pain in her side she continued walking, heading towards the one place she knew she would find peace, or peace would find her. Mika Tolias was a name most had never heard of... An irrelivant piece to the great puzzle of the universe. Her wings remained tightly withdrawn, covering her arms. Mika's attire was a loose cloth around chest and another around her waist. After a moment of walking, she went down to her fore paws, walking on all fours, looking like a winged wolf, but with hair sprouting between her ears and colors unnatural. She pushed back into a wolf, howling position, then shifted up to a knee, kneeling, one hand on the ground the other on her up knee. "Goddess, I ask your forgiveness. Forgive me for causing ill-will towards another life." That was it... all she came for was in the simplness of three sentances. She stood, turning and heading out. With a solem expression she crossed out of the sacred area, easily forgetting the fight. She was probably considered short, a heighth of about six feet and also oddly designed in color. On her forearms were three slash looking red marks, on her sides were sky blue streaks, contrasting with the deep blue that covered most of her coat. The streaks ran from underarm to hip. On her wrists it looked as though she wore bracelets, but at closer glance they were actually black rings of fur. Then there was the tattoo... a large circle, colored with green, brown, and blue... spread between her shoulder blades and the sprouted wings. Someone once said it was Earth, but Mika has no clue. The wound in her side was not so easily forgotten however. She limped on, finally reverting to walking on all fours again. When she finally reached the front of the temple she spread her wings, bending her hind legs and then springing, flapping once, strongly, continuing up... til she collided with another pendragon. ((ooc-timestamping done correctly?))
Iode was startled he thought no one would be here...so far away from society...his large red-black form was quite imposing. he caught the other pendragon in his arms. "Wow...are you...oh...that looks bad..." He commented on her wound, he took his shirt and ripped it into strips and started to wrap it with it. "This should help...you need real medical attention though...that is something I'm not trained in..." The blonde maned male sighed...she was bueatiful in his young eyes. He was still a student on a break for a weekend. He sighed "You feeling okay anything I can do for you?"
Mika shook her head, slightly startled at his boldness. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to crash into you. I wasn't watching where I was...flying." In truth Mika had just taken to flying more often recently than in most of her life. "The wound isn't that bad." Mika shook her head. "A scratch that will heal if I don't put too much strain on it." Mika had taken care of herself plenty of times before and with someone telling her what she should do it made her wary. She still smiled though, holding out a hand and politely stating her name. "I am Mika Tolias." With the recent studying of empathy she could tell he was sincere. Mika herself was still a student, and probably an age close to the males. With a mild sigh she pushed back the stray strands of crimsom with her other hand and placed it by the bandage, keeping her other hand out for a shake, an odd formality but still.
Iode took her hand and shook it with a bright white smile "My names Iode" He said getting up, a single curl of blonde hair right in the middle of his forehead. His blonde mane glimmered in the light while his red and black fur seemed to change in the light. He was very young, but he was still a bit of a hero type pendragon. It drove some of the more gothic dragons nuts.
Unseen, Woe pitched her large ears forward and listened to the conversation. She was not one for eavsdropping, but with her new predicament she felt it necessary to understand her surroundings before she got involved with them. She had been so alone, all this cacophony was startling. She crept forward, still in hiding, dragging her black, heavy wings lghtly on the floor. Fixing her blazing blue eyes on the scene ahead, she noticed the two 'dragons and contemplated her next move. She was just a baby, and lost...utterly lost. She chose not to present herself... Instead, she began to hum a beautiful song...a song that sinks deep into the soul...and suddenly the ambiance changed, the air became so sweet...or was it in the mind? All became so relaxed... She flicked her dark tail warily as her telepathic music eased pains and worries of all but her own....
Mika smiled slightly. The male was quite handsome and his name was beautiful. "Well, Iode, My hero for today." She tilted her head and winked an eye then she stilled. Her telepathic abilities kicking in as she looked around. "Do you hear that?" Mika was not gothic, not normal... she was just an individual. Then it was louder. Mika had been studying telepathy for a long time now, and her second best was empathy... which she was also feeling. Loneliness...utter loneliness. Mika went down to all fours and let her eyes scan the area, the pupils changing to an erratic orange. "I hear it...but I don't see anything."
Iode was a Jemdrull player and that was all he was addicated to the sport. he was a fierce warrior though, give him a ball or a rock and he could kill you with it. This was one of the few days he wasn't carrying a Jendrull ball. "Hear what?" His ears started to twitch as he looked around. He smelled another but the wind was blowing so he couldn't tell where it was coming from...He was hoping maybe it was Paush or a friend he hated having to fight unless it was on the field. He was fast if needed, not to mention strong he worked out everyday. He flexed his bat like wings and continued to look around
Woe froze, terrified...the wind lightly brushed her pitch black fur as her intense eyes scanned the scene... She continued to hum until she saw the male lift his head in confusion...he struck her as aggressive.... Oh...if only mummy hadn't left me, love... She thought to herself Suddenly she took off in a black streak of ebony past the two 'dragons...stopping suddenly about 15 yards away. She extended her big, awkward wings as she searched for her escape. She gave up after no prevail and curled into a pup ball of fluff, wrapped her wings around her and whimpered.
Iode was surprised with the flash and then he looked and saw her and walked over and nudged her with his nose "Don't be scared...I promise I won't hurt you." He smiled he came off as a tough guy but he was really a softy at heart. He loved anything and everything. It was part of being a Jemdrull player he must know his surroundings and be one with them.
Her striking blue owns stared at him, her ears laid back and her tail dropped... She was quite afraid, but not fleeing... "Mmmm..." She whimpered, "I'm lost..."
"Here lets move over here, I know where we are, it's my little get away spot from school" he loved school he was a dork like that. His red black fur shimmer as the wind blew thru it. "Your eyes are a lovely shade of blue you know you remind me of my friend Cue at school, a little fearful, but always lookin cute.' He smiled and held out his paw
Woe gave Iode a curious look, something mystical about her gaze seemed to sink beneath one's soul... "My name's Woe..." She shook her head lightly to get to dark black strands of thick fur out of her rich eyes...then she began to follow him, cautiously at first, but began to pick up speed as she felt more comfortable... "Thanks" she said slowly, as if contemplating the word. She gave him a look with a slight smile, and as she continued to walk on she began to feel comfortable enough to start humming again, only this time there were words and and they seemed to glow and dance as she sang them...Her thick paws padded lightly on the ground and she folded her wings back, lifting them off the floor.
"Names Iode nice to meet you, I'm a Jemdrull player at the acadamy" He smiled kindly, though he himself thought there was something strange about her but he shook the feeling off. He thought he was being too suspisous he walked back toward Mika "Are you sure your okay I think that we should go to the healer at the acadamy and get you fixed up."
"I'm not hurt...I'm fine" She grinned sheepishly. She continued to follow him, back to the female 'dragon who seemed to be hurt. Woe looked sympathetic. To shy to approach, though, she followed her new-found friend, with whom she found herself growing more attatched to, like a small child following the "big boy". Still a little unsure of her surroundings, she asked, "Do you stay here often?"
he nodded "I kinda like to get away from it all I'm from this area, I think..." He scratched his head he never knew his parents. He sat down, more like flopped "It's so peaceful and serene up here...I love it." He smiled and took a deep breath
"Oh? It is nice here, but I can't remember how I got in...I don't know why I'm here...I'm looking for somebody..." She gave him a pitiful look, and sat down beside him. "You must have a lot of friends here...especially if you grew up here" She looked off in the distance, her rich blue eyes seemed a shade lighter than before. "I don't know many people...I spend most of my life running from them!" She laughed nervously, as if the statement wasn't funny but she didn't know how else to express it. "I don't have any friends, none that I can remember anyway" She swished her tail around, back and forth, rhthymically...she turned towards him and cocked her head to the side, looking like an absolute picture. She yawned, and sighed, then suddenly yelped in distress, clawing at the head, pushing her ears forwad. She fluttered her wings about and writhed in a horribly mess until she lay still in a heap. She quickly got up and shook herself off, smiling as if nothing had happened...there was something absolutely peculiar about this pup, it was obvious, but it was undecided what, exactly, it was.
Mika was quiet, observing the new arrival. She smiled slightly and nodded her head at the child. "Hello, I am Mika. You are a telepath?" Mika arched a brow, now figuring out that the song came from her. She sat down as well, legs crossed indian style, her arms going to the open space made in front of her. With eyes flashing a deep green she observed the child, trying to break down the several emotions inside her. Fear...loneliness? Most prominent of the many. Then the sudden shift in demeanor caught Mika off guard. She jumped back slightly, eyes going to Iode's. She felt the message sent clear to him, What was that? (( OOC- Been out for a week guys. Vacation, back now. :) ))
Iode was just as surprised as her...the strange little pup had scared the crap out of him and he lost his balance and hit his head on a rock right in the middle of saying something... "I...OUCH!!!! Thes! that hurt!!!" When he got Mika's message he just shrugged he had no clue what was going on as usual...He never really got anything if it had to do with Psyic powers or anything Psy.
Mika laughed, an uncommon act for her. She felt herself stretch out, extending her wings, preparing for a flight once more. The pup though kept her waiting. She arched a brow and then with a sudden force of maternal instinct she moved forward. "Are you with anyone right now, Child?" The term came out before Mika meant to make it less degrading... however automatically it was more of an endearment. Mika would make sure the pup was safe before taking off.
The pup looked at her with painfully tired eyes, "No." she whispered. She looked around at the two sets of concerned eyes and answered the unspoken question... "I get...headaches. " She said vaguely, and understatement for the intense, searing pain that shoots through her brain, forcing her to writhe in agony and with every headache came more pain, and more bloodcurdling visions of hate and murder and death...
