BLOOD WAR - Page 4

Divide&Conquer · 08-08-2007, 02:18 AM

Nivian back away some and turned back into his human form. He sensed the uncertainty in her, but this was the only way to keep her safe from the other lycans.

He stepped closer to her and one side of her shirt down over her shoulder. He lowered his head and bit her shoulder hard. Blood seeped from the wound he created into his mouth. She tasted sweet but was full of fear. He released his bite and held her fast.

SkywalkerRules · 08-08-2007, 09:14 AM

Aria held on to Nivian tightly, as he bit her shoulder. She started to whimper. Then when he bit her harder, she gasped, and yelled in pain. This was an experience she never felt before.

When Nivian was done, Aria shivered, and felt a strange feeling inside. "What... what's happening to me?!" she yelled. Her blood dripped on a white flower on the grass.

Divide&Conquer · 08-08-2007, 10:29 AM

Nivian held on to her, and looked her straight into her eyes. Her blood running down from the corner of his lips.

"The process will be very uncomfortable. But do not fight or the pain will be worse. After a while you senses will be heightened, and you'll notice a strong craving for flesh. Because you are new to this, you wont be able to transform until the moon is up, until then you'll feel it coarse threw you like a virus that wants it's presence known."

SkywalkerRules · 08-08-2007, 10:42 AM

Aria fell to ground, crying. What have she done? She clenched her fist, angry and scared about what was going to happen on the full moon.

"I wish I never done this! I should've stayed at my village, as my people warned me! I don't want to eat any human... because I'm fighting for them!" She continued to cry.

Divide&Conquer · 08-08-2007, 11:10 AM

Nivian lowered himself to the ground, he gave her a warm smile. Inside however he felt horrible for what he had done to her. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

"I was like you when I first was bitten. But you'll find that the beast is hard to control at first. You have to remember who you are during that time. When you feel lost you can rely on me."

SkywalkerRules · 08-08-2007, 12:13 PM

Aria looked up at Nivian. Then she wrapped her arms around him, and cried. She felt different... not in a good way for her.

"I'll...I'll try really hard to remember who I am. And I'll always rely on you, Nivian. Deep inside, I know that there's a girl with a big heart still. And hope I won't give that up. I hope..."

Divide&Conquer · 08-08-2007, 01:25 PM

Nivian held her.

"Remember that, always. Even when you feel lost. There will be times when your actions are uncontrollable, but always remember who you are. And I'll always be there for you. Fight along my side, and I'll guard you."

Nivian stood up and held how his hands for her, and smiled the best he could remember.

"We should get going. Soon the war will begin."

SkywalkerRules · 08-08-2007, 01:36 PM

Aria took Nivian's hands gently, and got up. She trembled a little, but decided to build up the courage. She smiled.

"If we win... I hope my people would accept the Lycans. I really hope that they'll be safe. And I hope that you'll be safe too."

Divide&Conquer · 08-08-2007, 02:02 PM

Nivian felt slight sadness sweep threw him. But he shook it off.

"Possibly, but humans fear what they do not understand. And anything they do not understand they destroy. I have lived along time, and I have seen it happen to often."

SkywalkerRules · 08-09-2007, 12:53 AM

((Hey, did you guys see my Lycan? She's on the Blood War: Recruitment backstage calling.

))

Aria turned her head to one side, and closed her eyes. Then, a thought occured to her. "Maybe... maybe I could convice my people to help! They have a strong army too! About like 120 men! And... oh yeah. Then there's your friend. He might not like the idea. Right."

She sighed. "I... cannot believe this! Has he never trusted anyone?!"

Divide&Conquer · 08-09-2007, 01:35 AM

Nivian grinned at her and sighed.

He trusted me once, he thought to himself.

"He doesn't trust easily. Your actions in battle will prove yourself, and hopefully gain his trust."

SkywalkerRules · 08-09-2007, 05:04 AM

Aria shrugged. "Yeah. I guess you're right." Then she sighed.

"All right. Let's get moving." She wondered if she could move in a fast pace like Nivian, or just climb on his back again.

Divide&Conquer · 08-09-2007, 09:22 AM

Nivian looked at Aria and grinned slightly. Soon enough they'll both be able to see what she was capable of.

"So do you want to see if you can keep up with me or just ride on my back for old time sake?"

SkywalkerRules · 08-09-2007, 10:24 PM

Aria thought about it for a moment. Then, she gave him a grin. "I'll... see what I can do." She readied herself for a fast movement, as if in a race.

"I'm going to see if I can run as fast as you." She smiled, waiting to see if she could run in a fast pace like Nivian.

Divide&Conquer · 08-09-2007, 10:45 PM

Nivian looked at her from the corner of his eye and grinned.

"Get ready then Aria"

He then took off at full speed, but making sure he could sense Aria behind him.

SkywalkerRules · 08-10-2007, 01:41 AM

Aria smirked. "Let's see what she's got." Suddenly, Aria felt herself running in full speed. She ran by Nivian, and jumped in the air. She was high in the air, as if soaring through the sky.

"Woooo! I've got speed!!" Aria yelled, excitedly. She landed on the ground and continued to run. She looked at Nivian and smiled. "Not bad for a new Lycan, huh?"

Divide&Conquer · 08-10-2007, 01:52 AM

Nivian smiled back. He was excited to see her doing so well. But he could tell she was still careless with her other senses.

"No not bad at all. But you should pay more attention to your surroundings. Like that tree" he said as he picked up more speed.

SkywalkerRules · 08-10-2007, 02:00 AM

Aria looked confused. "What tree?" She glanced ahead. There was a tree in front of her that she was about to hit! She jumped up in the air, front flipped over the branch, and landed on the ground. Then she continued to run. She smiled.

"Sorry, Nivian. I'll be careful more. Hey! I know this might sound crazy but... can you be my teacher?"

Divide&Conquer · 08-10-2007, 02:14 AM

She wants me to teach her huh?

Nivian grinned. He ran passed her with great ease. He was no longer holding back.

"Alright I'll be your teacher. But don't use any formal titles with me. Those are nothing but irritations. Nivian will do fine"

SkywalkerRules · 08-10-2007, 02:27 AM

"Sure thing... Nivian." She smiled at him, then continued their journey to Hungary. She sighed.

"Are we at Hungary yet?" Aria asked, curious if they were near Hungary or not.

Divide&Conquer · 08-10-2007, 03:11 AM

Nivian stopped abruptly and caught Aria so she wouldn't over shoot. He looked out at the distance to a near by castle.

"We've been in hungry for a while. You see that castle over there?" he pointed in the distance.

"That's our destination." He smiled at her "But first, some basic training. Please take a seat."

Nivian sat down with his legs crossed.

SkywalkerRules · 08-10-2007, 03:40 AM

Aria scratched her hair. "Um... okay." She sat on the grass in front of him. She hoped that she'd pass this training, and not fail Nivian.

"Okay. So... what's the training about?" She smiled, waiting patiently for his answer.

Divide&Conquer · 08-10-2007, 08:25 AM

Nivian closed his eyes. In th distance he heard a stream flowing steadily. He could smell the flowers, and animal life that surrounded them.

"Besides greater speed and strength. All your other senses are heightened as well. Close your eyes and listen to your surroundings. Do not strain yourself, just listen" He finally told her.

SkywalkerRules · 08-10-2007, 03:21 PM

Aria looked confused. "Er... okay." She closed her eyes. She could hear all of nature's surroundings. She smiled silently. Then nodded.

"Yes. I... I feel it somehow," she whispered.

Divide&Conquer · 08-10-2007, 04:12 PM

Nivian smiled and nodded his head. He was slightly surprised she was doing better then he thought she would.

Guess I better not underestimate her ability to learn.he thought to himself.

"Now focus on one thing you hear. Follow it." he said to Aria.

SkywalkerRules · 08-10-2007, 05:09 PM

Aria still had her eyes closed. She listened to the one thing that she heard. The stream. She opened her eyes, and slowly got up. She followed the sound curiously.

When she got to the stream, she knelt down and looked at the water. The only thing she saw was her reflection. She sighed. "Nothing."

Divide&Conquer · 08-10-2007, 06:00 PM

Nivian watched as Aria got up and walked towards something curiusly. He tilted his head to one side then got up himself and followed her. He saw her knelling down by a stream. He walked over to her and sat down next to her.

"So what did you see? Or more importantly what did you hear?"

SkywalkerRules · 08-10-2007, 07:36 PM

Aria bowed her head, ashamed. "Well... I only heard the rushing water of this stream. Then something told me to come here. But I don't see anything. I--" Suddenly, she stopped.

"Wait. I see something..." Aria looked at the water closely. She could see a female Lycan with yellow eyes and brownish hair, looking back at Aria. The young woman squinted her eyes. "Is that me?" she whispered to herself.

Divide&Conquer · 08-10-2007, 07:53 PM

Nivian grinned. He stood up and placed his hand on her shoulder.

"In time perhaps. But for now your human. Come we must head to the castle the war will be starting soon."

SkywalkerRules · 08-10-2007, 09:24 PM

Aria nodded. She got up by his side, and looked up at him. In her eyes, she was afraid of death... but she knew she'd be protected by Nivian, and she'd protect him.

She smiled. Then they began to walk towards the castle.

Divide&Conquer · 08-10-2007, 09:27 PM

As they were walking up the hill towards the Castle Nivian could sense that Aria was nervous and slightly afraid. He placed his hand on her head.

"Don't worry you'll do fine. And you've always got me when things are rough."

He then opened the doors to the Castle.

"Well this is home."

He stepped to one side saying "Ladies first"

SkywalkerRules · 08-10-2007, 09:36 PM

"Thank you." Aria smiled nervously. When she got in, she could could feel coldness. Nothing was warm about this place. She trembled, but remembered that Nivian was always with her.

She turned to Nivian. "Where are the others?"

Divide&Conquer · 08-10-2007, 10:29 PM

Nivian took a deep breath in and sighed. This was home, cold and uninviting as it was it was still home. He took a few steps forward.

"They are probaly in the meeting room. But first I need to change. And you should be shown to your room for the night."

He turned towards her.

"Please follow me."

Nivian led Aria to her room. "You'll be staying here for the night, please have a look around. My room is a few doors down if you need anything."

He nodded his head. "Please excuse me, I must change."

SkywalkerRules · 08-10-2007, 10:36 PM

Aria nodded. She sat down on the bed, waiting for Nivian to show her to the meeting room after he changed. She decided to lay down on the bed and rest.

The young woman looked at the window. The sun was bright and beautiful on top of the mountains. Aria wondered what it felt like being Lycan... but in her heart, she wanted to be a good person still.

"Mother... I hope that I'll still be a good person. Even if I turn into a Lycan, in my heart I'll still fight for my people." She sighed. A tear fell from her eye. Then, she closed her eyes.

Divide&Conquer · 08-10-2007, 10:53 PM

Nivian entered his room. He closed the door behind him and placed his back against the closed door and and leaned there.

"This has been a long day. Now the vampires will be after me. But it's good that they will be off Freidricks tail. He's the better tacttion.

He stood up and walked to a wardrobe. Opening it he saw replacements for his cloths and Armour. He got dressed in his cloths and Armour. Once he was sure he was ready, he walked out of his room towards Aria's. Nivian then knocked on the door.

***Rogue Nine*** · 08-10-2007, 11:00 PM

Juuuuuust a friendly reminder that you need a minimum of three active RPers at any given time and recently, it's just been you two. Get some more people back in the mix please. Otherwise, you're better off just writing a collaborative fic or something.

SkywalkerRules · 08-10-2007, 11:29 PM

((All right. We're sorry about that, Rogue Nine. We'll get more people to come back to this. Padawan says that he's still playing, but he'll be back home in three or two days.))

Aria rubbed her eyes. "Come in." She sat up, and yarned. She's had a rough day... but everything will be okay. She hoped.

She waited to see who was knocking on the door.

Divide&Conquer · 08-10-2007, 11:44 PM

((My sincerest apologies Rouge Nine. We are working on it.))

Nvian opened the door and walked in wearing his black Armour. He stopped in the door way and smiled at her.

"Ready young one" he said teasingly.

SkywalkerRules · 08-11-2007, 12:10 AM

"I'm ready... sir!" Aria jested. She walked by his side, smiling. She tried to hide the feeling of fear, but knew that she had to be brave when she got to the meeting.

Aria glanced at the hall and sighed. "Boy. I'm sure gonna enjoy this."

Divide&Conquer · 08-11-2007, 12:18 AM

Nivian placed a gentle reassuring hand on her shoulder. He looked at her from the corner of his eyes, she smelled of fear but he didn't let on that he could smell it.

"You'll do fine. Your one of us now."
