Nyx looked suprised. "Oh, I guess I am so used to keeping them covered up, that I almost forget they are there. They were put on me at a very young age. The black bands represent death, and has gotten darker today. The silver represents electricity and the green represent an undying spirit." She said the words, and smiled at Raizan.
<span style='color:purple'>I suppose you are wondering about this?</span> He said, showing her his white hand.
Nyx took his hand in hers. She smiled and said,"Yes, I noticed it before but, I figured if I were meant to know, then you would tell me." She gently stroked his hand.
<span style='color:purple'>It appeared when I was young. There was a fire in the village, and I was trapped in our house. Something black appeared out of the fire and reached towards me, burning anyting it touched. I hid, and just before it touched me, my right hand glowed and shot a blast of wind at it. It punched through the thing and destroyed it, also extinguishing the fire. My parents found me under the bed, and I didn't come out from under it for 3 days.</span>
Nyx listened and continued stroking his hand. "I don't blame you for staying under your bed, at all. I would have also. Did you ever find out what the black thing was? Oh sheesh, sorry. I think I have been around one particular apprentice, a little to often. Her curiosity and being nosey, is wearing off on me, I guess." She let out a laugh as she said the words, smiley fondly at the thought.
<span style='color:purple'>Never did, never plan too. It's dead, and I want to keep it that way... Which apprentice is the nosy one?</span> He asked, smiling.
Nyx smiled. "Her name is Chzyuak. I have spent more time rescueing her from herself, since I have been with the guild. Although, she has improved immensely in her telekinesis. She hardly practices her pyrokinesis at this time. She tends to get distracted easily depending on who walks into the room but, then she is only 17." She let out a laugh, she ended up doing that when it came to Chz.
<span style='color:purple'>To be young and curious</span> He said, rolling his eyes and embracing her, rubbing his cheek against hers.
Nyx smiled and rubbed his cheek back. She felt an odd itch. She looked down at her wrists. She blinked, wondering if it was just her imagination. She pulled up her sleeves and took a closer look. Sure enough the itch was due, to a new band, that was colorless for the time being. "Raizan, look a new band." She said in suprise.
Nyx looked down at her wrists, and thought about it for a moment. "Well, the only reason that I can think of, is the fact that I have fallen in love with you. I wonder what color it will turn out."
Raizan blushed a little, still holding her. He then shook his head and cupped her chin, kissing her with a gentleness he never showed to anyone before. It was to show his love for her, and as such, she had been the first and only to get this type of kiss.
Nyx felt the wave of warmth flow over her again, as he kissed her. This time another feeling started along with it, an ache that she couldn't quite explain. The ache seemed to create a desire but, she had to push it down. She was not ready, to take care of it. She felt herself blush. She looked down, not quite sure how she was going to explain the feeling, if Raizan seen it when he looked into her eyes.
<span style='color:purple'>Lets get back to the mage guild</span> He said, smiling at her and looking at her in the "I-know-why-you-are-turning-away" style. <span style='color:purple'>Keep the desire in your heart, we will both let it come out when we decide to</span>
Nyx smiled. She stood up and picked up the book from her father. She stretched and put her wings away. She looked at Raizan and felt her face redden a little more. "Alright, both of those ideas sound good."
Nyx smiled and took Raizan by the hand. She turned in the right direction, and started walking. She shivered as the wind picked up slightly. With her open hand, she placed the book in the front of her skirt, tightly against her fur and readjusted her sweater.
Raizan smiled and put one of his wings on her back, shielding her from the wind. <span style='color:purple'>Better?</span> He asked, smirking at her.
Nyx moved a little closer. She smiled. "Yes, thank you." She looked at him and raised an eyebrow. "Why are you smirking this time?" She asked, she couldn't help but, be curious everytime he smirked at her.
<span style='color:purple'>Because you have a sweater and you are cold, I have nothing and I'm perfectly fine with the wind</span> He said, smiling and laughing a little.
