"And you both try to escape exactly the same way." Galia murmured, letting go of Zade's shoulder, but still watching him.
"Yeah, so what?" Erai snapped, glaring around at all of them. Her eyes were dark with anger, she just wanted to be able to get away. She whirled around, and was about to dart away after starting off in a walk, when a strong hand grabbed her shoulder and pulled her back.

Dray pulled Erai back. "Just tell us."
Zade crossed his arms then walked away again, and he felt the hand on his shoulder again. This time, he turned and grabbed it, but not hard. "What?"

Erai whirled around, her dual blades automatically raising, one to eye level, the other to stomach level. She tore free of his grip in doing so, and her eyes were like ice. "Let me go." She whispered in a deadly tone, shifting her grip slightly.
"Just tell us why you look similar, and we'll let you both go." Galia murmured evenly. She didn't move anything except her eyes.

Zade was now very annoyed. "No." He picked Galia up then dropped her a few feet away before walking off again.
Dray let her go and smirked. "Your brother and sister arn't you."

Erai turned her head, glaring at him with cold eyes. She shrugged. "You'll never know, will you?" She snapped, then started walking again, her steps quickening, then she was caught by the shoulder again, and jerked back for the second time. She shifted her blades again so that they pointed behind her, and she stared at the path ahead. "Leave me alone. NOW."

Dray smirked. "I already DO know." He released her. "I never knew you had a sister Zade, why didn't you ever tell us?" "Because she is an embarrassment." That was Zade, his tone cold and rotten.

"And he is an ass." Erai shot back, obviously talking to Zade. She started walking again, then paused. Still holding her blade, she drew a shuriken throwing star from the front of her belt, sprang up into the branches of a tree, and aimed at the others, but then someone knocked her loose, and she lost her balance, almost falling.

Zade shook the branch and smirked as she wabled up in the tree. "Your such a loser. Why didn't you just go die when you were soposed to?"

Post by ‡§åkørü‡ on Jun 23, 2006 20:11:06 GMT -5
She whirled around, holding the shuriken between two fingers, and aimed it down at him. "And when was I supposed to die, eh? Tell me that. Before I kill you." She growled, holding the tree branch with one gloved hand, the other wielding the star. She closed one eye, and carefully aimed it at his heart. He would answer truthfully if he wanted to live.

Zade glared up at her. "With mom." He looked away, then smirked. "You were soposed to be beheaded with her, you were a mistake, you should of died and would of to if I hadent been so kind." His grey eyes showed nothing but hate for her.

"Kind? You're the one that tried to put my neck on the chopping block." She hissed, and leaned back, then was about to throw the shuriken into the back of his neck when someone grabbed her ankle and jerked her down, making her clutch the branch with her 'free' hand. Dray and Galia had left, so it had to be someone else...

Zade turned to see Akili, Kalor behind her. "Let go of her Akili." "No." "Fine then, don't." "I woun't." "Good." Zade smirked. "Yeah, because of what you deserved I stopped, your lucky." He turned and started walking before feeling something sharp jab into his back, drawing blood.

Erai hissed at Akili, and kicked her spiked boot violently, then stabbed down at her back with her blade, intent on getting away. Just before she struck the other, she paused. "Let me go NOW." No matter what she did, she could not make Akili let go, but she still didn't stop. She finally straddled the branch, and lowered her leg-blade against Akili's wrist, trembling with rage. She managed to throw the star, however, and it lodged into Zade's back.
Kalor looked at Akili. "Let go of her..." He murmured quietly.

Akili let go of Erai's ankle and backed away, she watched Zade flinch, it was barely noticable, as he reached back and pulled the star out of the wound.
Zade jerked the star out then turned around and walked back. "You think this is funny?" He smirked, "Well I think this is funny." He placed the star on her knee and punched it hard, digging it in incredibly deep, plus the spikes on his knuckles made separate wounds. He had cut his hand doing that, but it was worth it, she wouldn't bend her knee without it hurting for a while. He turned again and strode off, smirking evily.

Erai swore, and glared at him intensely for a moment before concentrating on getting the star out of herself. She set her fingers on the edge of the sharp shuriken, and pulled it out a short distance. "YOU ARE FUCKIN' DEAD!" She yelled after him, and gritted her teeth. She took in a deep breath, and ripped the throwing star out of her leg, then eased herself up back onto the branch. She cleaned it off, and pressed it back into her belt, then straightened her legs, and shot off the branch, landing with both knees bent almost to the ground, taking the shock of landing. "Fuck you." She snarled, then raised herself off the ground, and, as she ran past Zade, half limping, she raised her blade, and slashed his back, then dodged to the side into the trees, and vanished. But she didn't leave.

Zade didn't so much as flinch. But it hurt like hell. He kept walking knowing she hadent left. He took a small paper out of his pocket, it was worn and had small blotches of dryed blood on it, but still readable, but useless to Zade, he couldn't read. His mother had given it to him. He could read his name, and Erai's name, but that was it, and those two words were on the top of the letter.

Erai slowed down, walking at his exact pace in the bushes beside him, well out of sword range. She bit her lip as a stick dug into her knee, but she ignored it, and half raised her twin blades, watching him through the thick foliage. A note? She wondered what it was for?

Zade stared at the first letter writen on the page. It was a T, but he didn't know that. The second letter was a H, the third an I and the fourth a S. He couldn't even read the word this. How was he going to read the whole thing? He sighed and stuffed it back in his pocket once more. He wouldn't allow himself to die until he knew what the letter said, only then, would he stop caring completely.

Erai suddenly stopped walking. She had reached her hideout, and she turned silently, disappearing into it. She sat down and pulled one knee up to her chest, the other leg stretched out in front of her. Blood ran down the side of her wounded leg, and she cringed, but moved over to her little pile of things, and found a bandage. She pulled the white gauze roll out of the stack, and wrapped it around her knee tightly, biting her lip not to swear with the pain. She hated her older brother...he was stronger, faster, and he had the note, too. She sighed, and fell back on the ground, crossing her arms over her bare stomach, feeling the metal coil around her slender waist.

Zade continued walking when he suddenly felt a gentle hand on his shoulder. He turned slightly to see....

Valdarii's light hand was on Zade's shoulder, then she let her arm fall back to her side. Her emerald eyes were soft, and she looked at him silently. Her teal hair was behind her shoulders for a moment before she shook her head and let it fall before her scars and tattoo again.

Zade blinked a few times, his eyes only holding something other then hate for a few seconds. The turned cold fast. "Its... You?" He stood and stared at her for a while. "Is something wrong?" Strangly he never was mean to her, and strangly, when she was around, he wasn't angry.

Valdarii shook her head slightly. "No, not really. I was just walking and saw you, that's all. I can leave you if you want." She murmured softly, tilting her head back to see into his eyes.

Zade smiled slightly. "No, thats okay, I don't mind, you can tag along if you want." He turned to start walking again, just looked over his shoulder at her. "Hows life?"

She shrugged, walking behind him. "About average, I suppose...mishaps here and there, but not too bad. What about with you?"

Zade looked down. "I don't really know." His back still bled heavily, and showed no signs of stopping, and yet he acted like there was nothing there. "Bad, like always."

Only now did Valdarii notice his bleeding back. "Is your back okay?" She asked softly, walking a little faster to catch up, then looking over at him.

Zade looked at her. "Why? Its just blood." He stuffed his hands in his pockets, feeling the note inside.

Post by ‡§åkørü‡ on Jun 23, 2006 21:29:11 GMT -5
She smiled slightly. "The bleeding isn't stopping." She replied somewhat flatly, but cracked a small smile. "Usually a wound like that in the back hurts."

Post by BäŽë™ on Jun 23, 2006 21:30:27 GMT -5
Zade smirked. "I don't feel much. Its not stopping? I wonder why." He smirked then felt a hand on his shoulder, that made him turn.
