[Sage Akia]

Inferno swung the sword around to get a feel of the ancient sword. It had been a LONG time since he had even touched the sword. It was something he had forged from himself long ago by the best craftsmen of all the races, even vampire and werewolf. Inferno stepped forward, spinning his sword and not even wrrying about whatever the werewolf had done to his own swords. Inferno's sword was strong enough to break through any regular sword. He brought the sword up over his head and brought it down on Lunaris.

[Hunter_Killer]

Fang smiled... overesimatting again. His blades weren't forged by any know metal in the land. They were forged from a fallen star, the only thing, that he knew of, that was naturally stronger than his bone armor. He crossed the blades and stopped the Vampires swing. Bending his knees and pushing him off with such force the vampire stumbled slightly. "Come on now, you're going to have to do better than swinging that blade like a scythe..."

Briena embraced the woman.
She could hear the fight resuming and groaned.
She had to stop the fight. Briena darted away from Sonusai, bowing her head.

She ran hard, and when she reached the fight, she hid behind a fallen tree.
She watched Lunarus.

Then, Bri remembered that he had said something about his mate and another Werewolf coming.
She nodded to herself and Shifted into a winged mare. She could travel much faster by air.
Bri reared, her white wings unfurling and took flight.

[Omio]

(( Edit: Typos fixed. Again, sorry about the long post. ))

He traveled more, with a nice red robe; the red and black dragonic-scaled robe that he usually wore for whenever he expected tough and tumble. Sure, he didn't have his usual equipment, the rapiers, great swords, throwing knives and daggers, but with just the Tetsui, and the fact that he normally had all that equipment, he was a fast little bugger on two feet; as long as he wasn't carrying his supplies with him, he was impossible to keep up to unless you were something faster than a human.

He then began to reflect back on troubling times, thinking back to when his village was attacked.

There was his mother and father, both killed by guards for protecting the two children, and the guards found Nikita, his sister. The event was 18 years ago, back when Omio was only nine. Nikita had just turned ten two days ago, in fact. Nonetheless, using the commotion of Nikita's capture to his advantage, he escaped, and was forced to live on his own. It was sheer luck that he was one of the very few survivors of that incident; and the village that was nearby had heard of this - another family took him in for a while before that village too was taken to shambles - 5½ years after the first incident.

Omio managed to escape much easier this time, having been able to build up his skills - his two years of swordsmanship training at this point was of little help, but a good enough help to get him to escape once again. After that incident, he decided to live on his own, as a true vagabond, and he was quite that way for a while, mostly being a hunter of sorts. Thanks to this, he learned tricks of guile, and improved his swordsmanship. After some time, he managed to come by another village, merely stopping by, and someone had noticed and remembered Omio - they talked for a while, and soon enough, Omio gained himself a job as a hunter for the village - and so he was able to net some money.

After a bit of time to develop and all, Omio learned the fundamentals of magics, and began to learn with them, keeping in touch with his swordsmanship. After this, and enough profit, the town began to bustle, and Omio knew at this time that he should go soon to keep the village safe; seeing as there was always someone that was out to capture him again. After some time, he found other people, Firewings, and from there, his entire life changed; his blood being fused with theirs, and theirs with his, soon enough giving Omio the Firewing powers we have yet to see. Once Omio had become Firewing, other clans began to accept him; him taking on an unofficial role of a Tactician - though he was an adept fighter, too.

However, after all of this, he had not heard of Nikita ever again. Ever. It was as if she vanished from all existance; not even a rumor of death or anything. Thanks to this missing chunk in Omio, he was cold and bitter, though when he was alone, on occasion, he wept.

The 'missing chunk' had been seen again, and he began to cry - he took a seat under a tree and hugged his knees, sobbing without much control. The very slight hope she was alive, but the facts almost pointing to the fact she was dead; though he could never be sure until he heard something. The way he brought the deaths to so many was also something that he wept about; unable to ask for their forgiveness or anything; So much senseless death because of him. As much as he wanted to kill himself, he knew that he would let too many down now, so he couldn't.

[Sage Akia]

Inferno spun around with an aimed strike at the werewolf's leg. He had definately underestimated the strength of the swords and would have to think of a number of new maneuvers to hit Lunaris. All it would take was one hit. If Inferno managed to cut the werewolf, the blade of his sword would do the rest of the work. One cut and Lunaris would lose some of his lifeforce to the blade.

[Hunter_Killer]

Fang blocked easily... the Vampire's moves seemed slowed down to him... He counter atttacked with a swing for the upper chest while his other blade shrugged off the vamp's blade. He did admitt in his head that this vampire was slightly different... but Fang hadn't fought a good fight in over 700 years, so he had to warm up first.
-----------------------------------------------------
Arimis was looking for more supplies, food, bones, whatever they needed, when he heard Selene's howl song. He returned to the Angelic Falls hurridly and saw she had transformed into her human form. Her eyes were wet with tears... but they were tears of happiness, not sorrow.

Giving no word, he took his delicate hand in his and picked her up. He was in his human form, due to the full moon. At his side Twilight Fang sat patiently, waiting for them to hurry up. They gave a parting glance at the other figure who had been at the falls with them for these past few days... a being from a dead race, the last of his kind.... They tilted their heads in good bye and sprinted off into the night, under the full moon.

They headed in the direction of the mountain passes, which lead to a place called the Forrest. Tha is were Selene sensed Lunaru's presence... and that was where they were headed.... But even though they would be united at last, something far greater also waited for them in the forrest... to finish what it started 500 years ago...

(One... strike that... one more character for my intro to completely start.... and one more after that to have it completely finish... so i end up with 2 characters)

[Aderas]

As the man walked, he noticed the rhythmical breathing had changed somewhat. He drew his bow, though did not yet string an arrow as he walked around the Dragon to near the side of it he thought the smaller creature might be.

[Hunter_Killer]

(Things will be interesting soon.... the Acrolytes are coming)

[Sage Akia]

Inferno felt the sword leave a gash across his chest then the pain immediately faded as he regenerated. He smiled as he pulled a small knife from his belt. Inferno sent a large amount of energy into the blade of the knife. The energy poured out of the blade and solidified turning the knife into a black bladed dagger. Inferno spun with both his blades flying as he moved. He aimed the slash of the dagger for the werewolf's chest and the sword for a hamstring.

[Hunter_Killer]

He pulled his swords down to stop the sword but the dagger cut across his chest's armor. It managed to scratch the bone underneath, but re temoulded and because unscathed once more, its magic properties still stored within it during nights with the full moon. With his other foot he kicked out at the hand holding the dagged and felt as his heavy boot connected right below the wrist.

[Sage Akia]

Before the kick landed, Inferno was already stabbing down on the leg. The dagger's blade sank in and with a smirk, Inferno released the energy in the knife. The dark blade faded and the knife fell from the werewolf's leg, but the dark energy from it stayed inside the wound and caused a sudden burst of black flames INSIDE the wound. While Lunaris was stunned, Inferno made a stab for the werewolf's heart.

[Hunter_Killer]

The blade sank halfway hrough the bone guard before it stopped. Inside Fang's mind Lunarus chanted in lyconic to stop the burning within the leg. Fang howled at the hurried attempt to finish the battle and he swung the blades in a cross formation. One swung high for the vampire's head, the other swung low for his upper thighs... Forcing the vamp to chose which he would prefer to keep.

[Sage Akia]

Inferno ignored the blades as they came towards him. He felt a tug of energy from his gut as black fire shot up from the area around his feet. The fire engulfed the werewolf's arms and hands, forcing him to drop his swords. Inferno attempted a swing at Lunaris's head with the flat of his sword. He needed a trophy, and the fang was best for that sort of thing.

[Hunter_Killer]

Lunarus finished the chant on the wound in the leg and quickly took control from Fang.... His body went from its weary state and became revived as a fresh mind took control. He ducked his head and snatched his swords, rolling to the side. As he stood he cut across two trees, the force sending them collapsing down over the Vampire. Within his head, Fang began to chant words in the ancient language of the god NighClaw to disperce the fire that burned at him.

[Sage Akia]

As the trees fell they were suddenly cut in four peices each. When the peices fell to the ground, Inferno stood in the middle of them holding his scythe and sword. Inferno broke another seal on his power and black fire roared from his feet. Hellfire shot at Lunaris in huge waves. Inferno just stood there as the hellfire blasted and blasted at Lunaris.

[Hunter_Killer]

Lunarus grinned. The Vampire hadn't learned that magic wasn't the way to go to get him. He took his swords and cut an opening in the first wave, which wasn't yet strong enough to stop his own spells. The second and third were much larger.... Thinking quickly, Lunarus cut down two trees beside himself to jump back and forth until he reached the tree tops.

Once he gained the top, He pushed off and did a spinning flip over the second wave... The third wave, unfortunetly, was to powerful and large to pull such a manuver again. He jumped from the tree top and pulled some of his reserves from Fang and sprinted to the river.

Once he reached its edge he jumped in the moving body of water... just as the wave passed overhead, flash vaporizing a good top portion of the water. Lunarus planted his feet on the silt covered bottom of the river and launched himself from it and sprinted back at the Vampire. Closing the distence rapidly so it couldn't take advantage of another magical attack.

He swung both swords for its stomach, one cutting just above the first rib, while the other aimed for the general area of its heart.

[Sage Akia]

Shadows gathered to inferno as the swords flashed at him. The second to last seal inside inferno broke and power burst from him, sending lunaris flying through several trees. The shadows mended Inferno's wounds as dires burnt all around him. One final seal remained in him to hold back his true power. If he was forced to release it... well the werewolf wouldn't just be thrown back. Inferno swiped his scythe upwards and a wave of fire burst along the path of the blade, heading in Lunaris' direction.

[Hunter_Killer]

Lunarus crossed his swords in thier shear-like position and swiped them back at the vampires fire wave... as a band of silver-white light flew back at it... anything it flowed over instantly froze in the position it was in.... The two attacks collided in a giant hiss of steam and water as the attacks canceled each other out... Two holes in the steam appeared as daggers, made from his fangs cut cleanly through and flew at the Vampire... one heading for his knee cap, to stop his movement, the other aiming to pin both of his hands together....

As the blurred form of Lunarus burst through the steam and charged for the final blow... beginning to tap on the reserves of power he once held himself from using.

[Sage Akia]

Inferno broke the daggers with his sword before they got close and once again let out an outburst of energy that blew Lunaris away. The werewolf was tiring out pparently. Lunaris was using the all of his reserves while Inferno, still had the vast amount of enrgy still sealed inside him. It was all over now. A dagger from Inferno's belt flew off with the outburst of power and was sent flying in Lunaris's direction.

[Hunter_Killer]

Lunarus sideswipped it away, his feint had worked at the vampire dropped his guard. He landed on his feet and bent his knees infront of the Vampire, slashing his swords back together, sening another band of silver-white light at it...

He watched the band sail at the vamp, who was only about 3 feet away from him... He had gotten him this time.
