• *Another beast, one with cool, radiant blue eyes similar to those of Kileaf's, watched from the trees above during the wolf's ritual. The beast had found Kileaf and waited patiently while the ceremony took place. Smiling sadly, the creature stood silently on the branch it was perched on and turned to leave, taking one last look at Kileaf below.* (NT) -- The Master of the Storms, 18:40:08 06/08/04 Tue

• *a deep red colored fox sneeks up on the wolf, quickly and quitely jumping from tree to tree untill he gets almost right over him. The fox watches the ceromoine with some intrest, then he remembers his family. Throwing a rock at the wolf just missing his right ear he says,* 'ello, what u doin' out here this time of night. * he takes a bite of an apple he has in his pack* you know there is bad men out 'ere in the forest in the night (NT) -- Firefist Sliverpaw, 18:54:22 06/08/04 Tue

• OOC: inside>>>>>>>>> BIC: -- Kileaf, 19:22:33 06/08/04 Tue
  • *The other beast in the trees looked at the red fox with a silent snarl. What kind of beast disrupted obvious important ceremonies in that manner. It's blue eyes blazing, the creature leapt from it's tree and onto the branch that Firefist sat upon. It tapped the fox on the shoulder lightly and put a lithe paw on it's dirk.* (NT) -- The Master of the Storms, 09:10:27 06/09/04 Wed

• Kileaf caught scent of another beast, not the fox, but another. He looks to Firefists branch and sees the creature. He states in a hard voice. "Stop your paw beast. He knew not what he was doing. There shall be no blood-shed here on this night. I do not know who or what you are but you will not strike. If you do you condem your self to damnation. This ritual is sacred and until daybreak this is sacred ground. "Kileaf rises of the ground the katana glowing in the moonlight in his paw.* (NT) -- Kileaf, 10:43:36 06/09/04 Wed
  • *"I was not going to hurt him, Kileaf," came a cold but soft feminine voice. "I was only aiming to rid you of his presence. Forgive me." With that the beast turned and disappeared into the tree canopy, headed back to where ever she came.* (NT) -- Master of the Storms (or so they call me), 11:41:00 06/09/04 Wed

  ---

• *Kileaf's expression softened. He leapt to the branch the the fox was sitting on. Sheathing the katana he sighed."Sorry bout before but this is somethin very important to me. It keeps the memories of my family alive, and it keeps the blade new. You couldn't tell by looking at it, but this sword is a thousand seasons old wielded by my ancestors long ago. Every blue moon, this must be done. Well I am going back to the fort to see a few beasts and eat. Care to join me? But I'll need to know yer name. I am Kileaf Maelstrom, ex-protector of Mossflower Forest." Kileaf turns to leave."If you are coming lets go. Kinda cold this night."* (NT) -- Kileaf, 12:35:42 06/09/04 Wed
  • *Zave, Xander, and Jara are all waiting for the white wolf when he appears in the tavern threshold. Zave looks to Jara and mutters, "There's your answer," to her previous question. She then waves to Kileaf friendlily. "Ah, there is our vanishing friend. Hello, Kileaf, I trust you enjoyed you walk, though it is well past the time you appointed for us to meet back here. Nevertheless, come, sit, and bring your friend over here also."* OOC: Would you like to just make this the continuation of the other post? (NT) -- Zave, 18:06:53 06/09/04 Wed
    • *the fox looks round and decieds it's all good round here and says in a good natured vocie* Sure, thank ya. By the way meh name be Firefist Sliverpaw. (NT) -- Firefist Silverpaw, 18:52:39 06/09/04 Wed

  ---

• *Kileaf waves back to his friends. He casts a look at Firefist as if to say ""keep silent about what you have seen No one should know."" Kileaf walks to where his friends were sitting and motioned the new fox to follow."Yes it is very late. Sorry, lost track of time. But I do enjoy walks at night, they are more peaceful than in the day."Kileaf takes a seat, and orders a round of drinks for his friends and himself. Kileaf jokes with his the beasts at the table "What did you miss me that much? OOC:Sure why not? I just thought the last post was getting a little long. (NT) -- Kileaf, 20:05:58 06/09/04 Wed
  • *Jara chuckles slightly along with the other beasts at Kileaf's joke. She looks at Firefist and smiles. "Ello, fox," she says. "And what would yer name be? I am Jaranai Stormsea, former corsair of the wide seas!" The she-wolf grins and holds her paw out to shake with the fox and winks. "At least I think I was."* (NT) -- Jara, 07:51:32 06/10/04 Thu

• *As the waiter brings their drinks, Kileaf reaches for his cloak pocket out of habit then realizes that it isn't there. He rises quickly and says "I will be back in a moment. I have to find my cloak it has all my money that I keep with me in it." Kileaf walks out the door. After reaching the door he breaks into a run that seasons of walking, running and jumping had given him. He reaches the spot where his cloak lay on the ground quickly and picked up off the ground. His paw flew to his money pocket that he had fixed to his cloak. He felt many gold coins and was instantly relived, he put it back on. He ran back to the fort's tavern and entered without even breathing hard. He casually walked back to his friends table and pulled eight gold coins out of his cloak pocket. "Here that should be enough." He said as the waiter placed the drinks down on the table. He looks at Jara and says gently"You sleep good? I know I did."* (NT) -- Kileaf, 10:41:25 06/10/04 Thu
  • *Jara keeps looking at Firefist with her paw outstretched, not meeting Kileaf's stare. "Aye, Kileaf," she says, "I slept well indeed. Thank you for asking, and thank you for the generous accomodations. Tell me, though, why did you shed your cloak outside on such a blustery night?"* (NT) -- Jara, 12:17:55 06/10/04 Thu
    • *The fox takes her hand, when he does he notices that his mind starts to race. he becomes focesed again.* My name be Firefist Sliverpaw, i was once a person somebody called on if they needed somebody...ahhhh, silenced. But i stoped that for a reason i can't say. *The fox lookes into her eyes with his deep blue ones.* (NT) -- Firefist Sliverpaw, 17:40:19 06/10/04 Thu

  ---

• *Kileaf looks out a window. "I don't know." He states "I guess it was weighing me down when I decided to do some tree hopping. I don't even remember if I even fastened it when I awoke." Kileaf gives the coins to the waiter. "Why does it matter?" Kileaf looks back to Jara as he takes his seat.* (NT) -- Kileaf, 18:14:16 06/10/04 Thu
  • *"It doesn't," the she-wolf replies shortly. She then addresses the fox, letting go of his paw. "Welcome to Nightshade, Firefist," Jara says. "I am sorry to be leaving just as ye get here, but I must leave now. Maybe I shall meet ye some time soon. Until then, may ye have good fortunes following ye as ye go on yer way. Goodbye, then." With a nod to Firefist and an apologetic smile to Zave and Xander, Jara turns toward the door, her cloak swishing around her and leaving her scimitar and dirk in clear visibility, and she heads for the door.* (NT) -- Jara, 16:49:59 06/11/04 Fri
    • *the deep red colored fox nods back and asks* Where ya off to? *The fox stands up as if from habbit when a lady gets up* (NT) -- Firefist Sliverpaw, 18:14:09 06/11/04 Fri

  ---

• *The white wolf stands as Jara heads for the door. "Jara wait..."Kileaf says as he walks over to where she is standing near the door hoping she will stop. "I didn't mean it like that. I know you were concerned or you would not have asked. What would you say if asked you if I could join you? I would really like to talk to you a little more in private. Ok?" Kileaf says in an apolgetic voice. At the moment he was showing a side of him self not many beasts had seen.* (NT) -- Kileaf, 19:14:01 06/11/04 Fri
  • *The black she-wolf stops, but only out of respect to listen to Kileaf's words. For the first time that night she looks into his eyes, her icy blue orbs boring into his. Then Jara looks away and puts her paw on the door handle. "Come with me if ye wish, Kileaf," she says. After that the corsair looks back to Firefist. "Where I am 'off to' is none of yer concern," she states, but quickly shakes her head. "Forgive me for me shortness, it has been a long few days. I have private matters to attend to, fox. Thank ye for yer courtesy, though." The the she-wolf looks turns to Zaviar. "Zave, entertain our guest until one of us returns, please." With that the frustrated beast opens the door and exits the tavern, not caring to see if Kileaf follows or not.* (NT) -- Jara, 11:18:03 06/12/04 Sat

  ---

• *The white wolf watches Jara walk out without following her. His paws naturaly balls up into a fists. With a turn hits lashes out at a wall. "Damnit, what was I thinking." He says with anger rising not only in his voice but his eyes as well. Removing his paw from the wall a large dent can be seen where his paw struck. Kileaf walks out the door in anger, frustration, and confusion in his eyes. He does not follow the she-wolf but instead jumps to the nearest tree and quickly to the next. Tree to tree he jumped with amazing speed toward the north. Kileaf did not stop for several miles out away from the fort. Finally he stopped, looked down and there was the cave. The cave where he had observed the fort for weeks before entering it. He only stopped only long enough to grab a little food to survive on while he thought things through. With that he jumped back to the trees to a destanation unknown even to himself. (NT) -- Kileaf, 12:08:06 06/12/04 Sat
  • OOC: Ah, dang you, come back! BIC: *Jara soon notices that Kileaf was not following her and immediately felt sorry for the way she had acted. Kileaf and Xander were her two best friends in this fort, excluding Zave who was leaving soon, and she had done well to scare off one of them already. The she-wolf did not know which direction she had set off in, did not care, but she soon found herself in an unknown territory of the area around the fort. Above her the tree canopy blocked out all light, and noises around the young corsair made her jump frequently. "Demn ye," she berated herself quietly. "What happened to the old Jaranai, Master of the Storms, the one who all pirates feared? Where has she gone." Jaranai stopped and slumped down by a tree, attempting to hold back the tears. It had been so long since she truly cried, since she let her true feeling show. "The old Jaranai is dead."* (NT) -- Jara, 17:43:45 06/12/04 Sat

  • Inside >> -- Jara, 06:38:21 06/13/04 Sun
    • *The wolf smiled. His arms held her there for a moment, then he took his left paw, with is thumb under her chin her lifted it slightly and with his other paw he wiped her tears away. "It doesn't matter who we used to be. Only who we are now." Kileaf said. He looked up. Maybe now he was where he belonged. He turned with Jara on his left and his left paw around her waist, he walked in the direction of the fort. "Let's go home." He spoke quietly.* (NT) -- Kileaf, 09:02:10 06/13/04 Sun
      • *The she-wolf looked up into Kileaf's eyes with renewed hope. Maybe she had found a place to stay, a home as Kileaf put it. Wordlessly Jaranai followed, walking in step with Kileaf as they made their way back to tavern. As they neared the clearing, and Jara remembered what she had seen earlier that night. "Kileaf," she asked, stopping him. "'Twas me in those trees earlier. I'm sorry if I distrubed you, I just got angry when Firefist imposed, I, I'm sorry."* (NT) -- Jara, 18:33:11 06/13/04 Sun

  ---

• *Kileaf looks Jara straight in the eye."I know."Kileaf said with a little humor in his voice. "I knew when I first sensed you nearby. I didn't say anything because I, well I knew you wouldn't speak of it to anybeast. But now I have a question for you. If you were the one in the tree, why were you so upset about me misplacing my cloak?" The male asked his companion with a little wonder in his voice.* (NT) -- Kileaf, 19:05:18 06/13/04 Sun
  • *Now it was Jara's turn to show slight, bitter humor. "I was seeing if you would tell me the truth," she tells him truthfully. "It was not the misplacement of the cloak I was upset about, Kileaf."* (NT) -- Jara, 20:04:36 06/13/04 Sun

  ---

• *Kileaf's eyes darken a little. He was not at all happy that he had lied to his friend and it was obvious. "I'm sorry Jara." He said as he looked back towards the fort as to not lose direction. "I always was a terrible liar. Couldn't stand to do it ever." Kileaf took both of Jaras paws in his own as he looked back into her eyes. "Forgive me...." He said sorrowfully.* (NT) -- Kileaf, 21:01:58 06/13/04 Sun
  • OOC Mwahahaha, Never! BIC: *Jara smiles. "Of course I forgive you, Kileaf, how could I not?" The she-wolf answered. "But now I really need an ale, so let's get back to the Fort." She takes his paw in hers and leads him back to the fort. Zave, Xander, and Firefist were waiting, as was expected. Jara let go of Kileaf's paw and looked at Zave. "I trust you kept our guest company, Zaviar?" she said.* (NT) -- Jara, 09:15:34 06/14/04 Mon

  ---

• *"Thank you." He said with his eyes brightning back up. Then he states. "Yes I could go for an ale too." Kileaf lets Jara lead him back to the tavern. When they reach the tavern he leaps to the rafters. "Go to the table I'll be there shortly." He says. Kileaf walks towards a window* (NT) -- Kileaf, 18:02:30 06/14/04 Mon
  • *Jara began to frown, but held it back as she left Kileaf and sat down beside Zaviar. She didn't like being ordered away from him, but she listened anyway. "So Firefist," she says, "Where're ye from?"* (NT) -- Jara, 18:24:26 06/14/04 Mon

  ---

• I'm from here and there, *he laughs a little*, where ever you find me (NT) -- Firefist Silverpaw, 18:39:46 06/14/04 Mon
  • OOC: Wow that's bright. BIC: *The she-wolf nods, looking around for Kileaf. He should have been back by now... "Here and there, as are us all," Jaranai says with a smile. "This fort used to be a grand place, full of sea-farers and such. I never joined, but I passed by it on me travels sometimes. Zaviar can tell ye of it's wonder, though. Now 'tis just a place for rogues, and many of the former members have left. Tis a pity really, but there's nothing we can do about it." She shakes her head, looking back at Firefist. "So, from what I gather, yer a paid assassin, a mercenary. How pleasant. I did notice, however, that ye and Kileaf did not seem to be that much of strangers. Have ye met before this night?"* (NT) -- Jara, 18:48:34 06/14/04 Mon

  ---

• * Kileaf drops back down from the rafters. "You could say that Jara" Kileaf said as he started to a seat beside Jara. "But....I would rather you not. Is a very long story, and I am sure neither one of us wants to tell it. So lets just leave it at that." He said. Kileaf sat back in the chair and looked at his friends at the table.* (NT) -- Kileaf, 19:18:55 06/14/04 Mon

  ---

• OOC: yeah but not as bright as kileafs BIC: Long and full of memeorys that, i rather would not like to remember (NT) -- Firefist sliverpaw, 19:26:07 06/14/04 Mon

  ---

• OOC:So I like my bright color BIC:*Kileaf rubs his eyes. Too much jumping for one night had left him tired. He yawns." I think I am going to retire for the remainder of the night. Good night." Kileaf stands and turns for the rooms. Before leaving he places a paw on Jara's shoulder and looks at her for a moment. Then he removes his paw and walks to the hall of rooms. He picked the last room down the hall where the beds are consdierably larger. He removes and hangs his cloak. Then he removed his dagger and sword and layed down to sleep.* (NT) -- Kileaf, 19:53:05 06/14/04 Mon
  • *Jara looks at Firefist somewhat questioningly. "Aye, and did ye two meet through that profession of yers, Firefist?" she asks after Kileaf leaves.* (NT) -- Jara, 08:24:01 06/15/04 Tue

  ---

• *The fox looks at her* Aye, that'll be how we met (NT) -- Firefist Sliverpaw, 16:50:51 06/15/04 Tue
  • *Jara nods, hiding her look of disapointment. "Well, Firefist," she says, "I fear I must leave again. Please tell Kileaf that I said goodbye." With that the she-wolf rose from the table, waving goodbye to Zave and Xander, and walked out of the tavern into the still night air.* OOC: Sorry guys, I'm leaving for my dad's today and I won't get to post as much. Have a good three weeks while I'm gone, and please be here when I get back! Talk to all ya'll later! (NT) -- Jara, 06:13:28 06/19/04 Sat
