*She tenses also, unconsiously, wondering what the matter is, golden eyes casting around warily.* (NT) Elle 14:54:59 05/29/01 Tue

*A erie howl echos throughout the courtyard, raising in a keening crashendo of sounds, he relaves and smiles, cupping his hand to his mouth and answering in an equally erie howl, lifting to the hight fo the sky then lowering once more, he smiles, his horse snorts and stamps the ground, the wolf replys with an eager lament....he gives no answer this time...~*~ (NT) -- Russet, 15:03:30 05/29/01 Tue

*She starts slightly, she had few dealings with any other animals besides horses, and they certainly gave no clue to the noise she was hearing now. She shivers slightly, eyes scanning the general location of the noise warily. Seeing him do it, she relaxed slightly, maybe it was a signal of some sort? She wouldn't know.* (NT) -- Elle, 15:10:11 05/29/01 Tue

~*~For the first time since she had been near him he smiles, eyes sparkle, no longer cold and laced with fear, there is a sound of movement in the brush, he quietly answers the howl again, yellow eyes peirce the darkness~*~ (NT) -- Russet, 15:16:32 05/29/01 Tue

*Seeing him so relaxed she calms down the rest of the way, only slightly shaken when the eyes come in view, trusting it to not be too bad. Besides, the visible difference in his appearance was enough to keep her somewhat occupied* (NT) -- Elle, 15:25:16 05/29/01 Tue

*He walks some distance from her and crouches, whistling softly, there is a whine as if from a dog and the creature slinks from the shadows to him, he slowly extends a hand to touch the brindle pelt of the wolf, eyes focused on the beautiful creature at his touch once more, the creature who traveld with him before~*~ (NT) -- Russet, 15:33:30 05/29/01 Tue

*She hesitates, unsure of this, but she raises her head and walks up, golden eyes wary but curious. She stands a small way back, head tilted lightly to the side, wondering* What.... who.... is that? (NT) -- Elle, 15:38:40 05/29/01 Tue

~*~The wolf flashes a fearful look to her, yellow eyes bright and he dashes into the brush, Russet smirks and shakes his head~*~ "Yes...run then...trust your instincts.,...flee..." ~*~He looks to her and shrugs~*~ "my only travel companion....I call him Damin...He is a wolf..." (NT) -- Russet, 15:45:38 05/29/01 Tue

*She flashes him a rather cold look, catching a possible implied jest in that she did not appreciate. She brushes back the golden hair in front of her face distainedly, look lessening somewhat* I have never heard of a wolf as a traveling companion... then again, I have done little traveling. *Her gaze is caught for a moment from something in the brush, then shakes her head slightly, turning back with a gaze laced with less poison then before* (NT) -- Elle, 15:54:45 05/29/01 Tue

~*`He pays her glances no head, having seen and received far worse he walks over to his horse and raches in the saddlebag for something~*~ (NT) -- Russet, 16:01:53 05/29/01 Tue

*She smiles suddenly, taken a liking to the fact he didn't seem to care what other people thought. She turns to where she had came from, shading her eyes in the glare from the lowering sun. She bends down, picking one of the many fragrant roses in the garden, twirling it absently around her fingers.* (NT) -- Elle, 16:12:03 05/29/01 Tue

~*~He plucks a rose from one of the bushes, with a snap of his fingers it changes from crimson red to white a snow, he swings into the saddle and turns his horse gingerly toward sher, a cool smile still on his lips, he reaches towards her and places the rose, thornless behind her ear and turns the horse to leave once more* (NT) -- Russet, 16:18:35 05/29/01 Tue

*She starts at the action, whirling around, eyes widening slightly. She manages to ruin a possibly nice moment with that action, overbalencing and falling with a soft cry... right into the creek she had been admiring minitues before. She flounders in the deep water for a moment, having little experience with swimming and even less with a dress on, before slipping waterlogged under the surface* (NT) -- Elle, 16:39:51 05/29/01 Tue

~*~He hears the splash and swings off the back of his horse, throwing off his shirt, it lands on the saddle, he takes a deep breath and dives into the creek, surfacing quickly and looking franticly for her~*~ (NT) -- Russet, 16:42:37 05/29/01 Tue

*She tries to fight her way up to the surface, managing to thrust one hand up... then slips back down limply, the breath she didn't have running out quickly* (NT) -- Elle, 16:46:40 05/29/01 Tue

~*~He draws a deep full breath and dives back under, opening his eyes in them murky water and swimming towards the hand, a firm strong amr slips around her waist and he lifts her up abofe the water with himself* "Hold On to me!" (NT) -- Russet, 16:48:50 05/29/01 Tue

*Her barely functioning mind realizes that there is air, focusing on that above all else. Disoriented mind realizes that he had said something, and she nods, not exactly sure what she is agreeing to, but slipping a hand onto his shoulder in a tight grip anyways, automatically.* (NT) -- Elle, 16:56:08 05/29/01 Tue

~*~He shake shis head with disaproval and takes both er arms over his shoulders and makes her take her hand with the other, he starts swimming towards the bank after this~*~ (NT) -- Russet, 16:59:06 05/29/01 Tue

*Senses clearing as the time moves on, her mind connects what happened, and she flushes a bright red color, glad he was facing the other way. Or maybe it wouldn't have mattered, anyway, except for the flower somehow still tucked behind her ear.* (NT) -- Elle, 17:08:22 05/29/01 Tue

~*~He climbs up ontp the shore and shifts to lift her from the water* "Perfect time to go swiming eh?" (NT) -- Russet, 17:12:29 05/29/01 Tue

*Still a bright flushed color, she manages a half glare, mood lessened considerably in her sopping state. Mutters* Perfect. *She manages an embarresed smile, turning more red as she manages a proper look at him. She lowers her gaze slightly* Um.... thanks. You... didn't have to do that.
