Evelyn had left the bar with Ninrian and had gone back to her home. She walked in and turn the light on on the first floor instantly going to one of the shelves and getting some glasses, grinding the roots in them together and putting the powdery mixture in a glass. She started to walk up the stairs and smiled, "Well.... we'll mix this in with some water and all these little intoxication will go away soooooo no hangover for us!" she said cheerfully. She walked in the kitchen and to do just that.

Her kitchen was cozy and quaint with a small fridge to keep things cool, some cupboards, three counters and a little portable stove top on one of the counters that Evelyn left unplugged. She grabbed a glass for her and a small thimble for Ninrian and mixed the proper amount for her and Ninrian with water and then drank hers and gave Ninrian hers. She walked out of the kitchen and across the living room to her bedroom and she noticed a figure on her balcony. She smiled and walked towards the balcony, looking down at Night as she did.

She walked out to the balcony and said "Hello Sarah, to what do I owe the pleasant visit today? How have you been?" she asked as she leaned on the railing that was over grown with flower vines. A cool gentle breeze blew and Evelyn looked up at the moon, it was bright and beautiful tonight helping to illuminate and cast a blue light on the village below. "Are you here for business or leisure?" she asked looking at Sarah slightly concerned hoping that there wasn't something wrong.

Sarah immediately jumps up when she sees Evelyn, a grin on her face. "You know Eve, you ask me that same question every time I come over. You realize that right?" she asks with a laugh. "It's pure leisure. I couldn't sleep so I snuck out. It was a lot easier then I thought it was going to be, 'cause you know my parents have put more guards around my room to try and deter me from sneaking out. Too bad they all fell asleep." She gives Evelyn a mischievious grin. "Although I guess I did partially come for business now that I think about it. I need more sleep powder." She laughs almost innocently and then gives a small wave to Ninrian inside.

"Hello Ninrian, nice to see you again," Sarah says. "And to answer your other question Evelyn, I've been fine. Bored around the palace, but fine. My parents are tired of my escapades out into the forest at night, but I don't care. It's not like they really care about what I do, as long as I don't make them look bad." She scoffs and turns around, leanning on the railing looking out, a slight frown set on her lips. But it quickly disappears as she smiles once again. "Beautiful night tonight. Can't you just imagine two lovers meeting somewhere in the forest, all alone, just the two of them?" She sighs dreamily. "It sounds so romantic. I bet it'd be quite magical. Especially on such a gorgeous night as tonight."

"So what's new with you Evelyn? Anything? Have you finally worked up the nerve to tell Kale how much you love him?" She grins at Evelyn. "You should tell him. I bet he likes you back. I could find out for you! I'm great at spying when I'm shifted! Oh cmon Eve, let me do it, please??" Sarah kind of begs her. "It would put some excitement back into my day! And that's what I need! Excitement!! Oh cmon Eve, please say I can!"

Ninrian fluttered around the pharmacy, smirking. She was just a tad tipsy, nothing drastic, just a tiny bit buzzed. She knew that Evvy would've concocted something to remove the effects of a hangover completely, it was only a matter of time. She was a brilliant alchemist, and she was quite attractive as well. Though she was quite sure that was just the alcohol talking. She fluttered over with Evelyn to the balcony, to find another one of her friends; Sarah. She wasn't as close to Sarah as Evelyn, but they were still good friends.

"Heya, Sarah!" Ninrian projected in her usual bright tone. Out and about at this time of night? Surely you must've had to do some smooth talking to convince your parrents to..." She then burst into a fit of giggles. " Yes, I'm quite sure you talked your way out of it, with a little help from some kind of magical or alchemical ingreedient." She said with a sarcastic voice. When she admitted she used sleeping powder, Ninrian just giggled to herself. That was one thing she found herself drawn to...Sarah's mischiviousness. It was a day brightener all right.

Sarah spoke to Evelyn, before smirking as Kale was brought up. "She hasn't told him anything! I promise, though, if she asked, he might say he likes her too! But what is funny is how she almost drools in his presence!" She projected with a laugh, patting Evelyn to let her know she was joking. " And you don't need her permission to spy on him. You have my permission to spy on him!" She pointed out with a grin and a wink. "She may not want you to, but I want you to spy on him!" Ninrian projected, brushing her red hair from her face, shooting a smug, but playful look at Evelyn.

Sarah easily catches the bag of pills from Evelyn. "Thanks Eve, and are you sure I can come along with you? Shapeshifters aren't really supposed to go to the Lycans' or Werewolfs' cities, at least what my parents tell me. And to answer your question as to why I don't leave, it's because I'm not old enough to be fully independent form them. Since we live so long the official independency age is somewhere around one hundred." She rolls her eyes and sighs some. She stifles a yawn and thinks for a second or two.

"I've heard Netherfield has excellent shops there. I could always use a new dress. BUt my parents would never allow it. They'd send an entire search party after me if I left. Speaking of, those sleeping pills are probably going to be starting to wear off those monsterous guards by the time I get back so I need to skedaddle. It was great seeing you again Evelyn. Next time I come Ill stay longer. Promise." She smiles and gives Evelyn a hug, dropping a small pouch of coins onto the table behind her, then waves again to Ninrian, giving her a smile as well. "See you again soon Ninrian. Bye Evelyn! Goodnight to both of you!"

She walks out onto the baclony and down the stairs to the scond floor balcony. A few minutes later the moonlight glints off of the silver wings of Sarah's shifted shape as she flies upwards out of the trees and back to her home in Thorton Lacey.

Ninrian smirked, as she was scolded like a child for not taking all of her 'medicine'. "Uh huuuuuh...I'm still waiting on the side effects. Last time you gave me something for cramps, I ended up being out of my MIND. I tried having conversations with my furniture. And yours too, if I remember correctly." She projected. "And If there was anything I learned from that, it was that the words "supple" and "wood" don't belong together in a sentence. Period."

She waited for a while, as Evelyn and Sarah talked. Eventually, Evelyn picked her up by the foot, and held her upside down. Her hair, and her loose articles of clothing hung down from her form. "Speak on your behalf? I was speaking on "OUR" behalf, Evvy." There was a slight pause as she was held upside down. "And if you wanted to see up my clothing, you could've just looked up, like the rest of your population does when a female fairy flys overhead." She projected, folding her arms, and grinning. "But we're smart, we wear..- whoa!" She cut off as she was released, causing her to drop before her wings came to life, allowing her to flutter. " Oh yeah? Dampen it all you want, but fire is still hot, and water is still...wet." She continued, not exactly sure where she was headed with this....

But before long, Sarah was leaving. "Bye Sarah! Take caaaaare!" Ninrian said, waving to her friend as she flew off. "She's pretty neat huh....? But are you serious about going on a little "Road Trip"? Because, I wouldn't mind getting out of town for a while. Noone needs medical help, currently, and if they can, there are like...four other aids around this huge forest." She proclaimed. "Not to mention, you know you'd die of boredom on the way there." She finished with a grin.

Evelyn had been wandering in her thoughts as she wrote down things in her book an her mind drifted back to Blitz. "He really isn't very talkative, If he doesn't say something this whole time it's gonna be really awkward," she thought. As she kept writing she heard his footsteps com into the laboratory and then a few moments later he asked what something was. "Oh?" she said out of reaction as she looked up from where she was kneeling. She placed the book down and walked over to see what he was pointing at. It was one of her oddly colored chemical tubes. It had a large circle shaped area with smaller tubes spiraling out of its sides and was attached to its own little burner.

"This is a chemical mixer, more commonly known as an illusion maker. Here let me show you how it works..." she said flashing her usual smiled and then walking over to some jars of powder made from herbs she had previously crushed and walked back over to where Blitz was. there was already liquid in the tube, so she turned on the burner and the liquid started to bubble and gave off a light that, through the multicolored tube, seemed to be a rainbow. She put some herbs in through a smaller one of the tubes and as the hit the liquid they smelted into it and a smoke of a blue hue was released and Evelyn swiped her hand through it and it took on the shape and started to move like a rabbit.

"You simply put one of three herbs in and then imagine something, like an animal or people dancing, and then swipe your hand through the smoke. It reacts to the small waves emitting from your brain and with the contact to your hand takes on the shape and movement of that thing," she explained as she put in another herb and it turned the smoke a purple hue and she swiped her hand through it again and it took the form of a wolf as it ran through the air of the room and circled around Blitz then started to dissipate.

"It was originally made for just testing chemicals, and with it's design it's really good for it, but it was discovered the liquid best used with the material of the tube could provide the perfect settings to make an enchanted smoke when the right conditions were met and a good deal of story tellers use it now." she added as she grabbed a small handful of another herb and gently put it in Blitz's hand. "Give it a try Lord Blitz," she said and then stepped back a small step. "Just put the herbs in then imagine something and strike the smoke," she repeated.

Evelyn looked on curiously as the smoke started to take shape, slowly, of an elf and then she recognized it to be one like here writing in a book. She blushed for a moment but then regained herself and laughed slightly. She walked back next to him and smiled up at him, "That was exactly right Lord Blitz," she said. "Feel free to use the herbs and mess around with it if you want. Just be careful of how much you put in at once otherwise the liquid will have a reaction and release a large amount of smoke in a large burst and I'd have to open the windows to let it air out," she explained.

She looked around and started writing down inventory again. She had gotten done with the room fairly quickly. Partially because she knew a good deal of what amount was in there already and also because half way though she found a book of an inventory she had taken the last week and knew what she had used and what she hadn't since the inventory was taken. She finished the inventory in the laboratory and turned back to look at Blitz whom she had actually forgotten was there while she was working. She wasn't even sure what he had been doing the whole time while she was taking the inventory.

"Well I'm done with the inventory in the laboratory. So I'm going downstairs to..." her sentence was cut short when there was a knocking at her door and a voice called out announcing that two members of the elven night guard needed to speak with Evelyn. "What do they need with me...." she mumbled as she walked out of the laboratory and to her balcony. As she did she leaned over the edge and called out, "I'll be right down." she made it to her door and the two guardsmen stood there. They were tall an very lean like all elves, dressed in the uniform of the elven night guard. They started questioning her about anything that happened on her trip, she found it very odd and half way through she stopped them. "Why are you asking me these things, this trip was a business call and honestly isn't any concern of the night guard?" She thought they were a little odd, night guards never asked her anything before, she recognized most of them, and they didn't move or speak like normal elven guards.

The guards smirked at her and then pushed passed her and into her shop. "We're here because we heard you had one of the ancients with you," one of them said as he looked around the store. "And we want him dead." he added as the other one closed the door behind Evelyn and then went to grab her. In the next moments a short lived struggle happened, she moved to the side and his hand went passed her head, she grabbed his wrist and pushed on a pressure point causing the joint in it to pop. She pulled him forward in front of her using his own momentum against him and then pushed him into the other man. She moved out of the way of another strike. She pushed one of the men away again but then the sound of a sword being unsheathed sounded and slid in front of her neck. The cold feel of the steel against her skin caused a shiver up her spine. "Now be a dear and tell us where the Ancient is," he demanded.

"Drop dead!" she replied. The man pushed the blade into her neck some and a small trickle of blood moved down it. He looked at the other Night guard imposer and motioned for him to check things out. The other guard moved up the stairs and started to check things out. "Just great, I get arrested, treat two of the four ancients, return home with one of them and get attacked by some idiot who wants him dead all in the same day," she thought as the blood trickled down from the blade onto her chest. "Great and now he's cut me just deep enough to where I won't die but if I move I'll nick mu jugular," she added to her thoughts as she wondered what she should do.

Evelyn stood there thinking of what to do when she realized something. The guard impersonator hadn't bound her hands in anyway at all. She got a slight smile but hid it and thought, "This idiot, he hasn't take the time to tie me up or disable me in anyway. If I remember correctly this is the guy that I injured the wrist of as well." she thought back trying to remember all the movements in the short skirmish and figured out that it was. "Good so his one wrist he's using for show in a way, and his good one has the blade. If I can hit a certain pressure point in his wrist it will immobilize him with pain and I can safely move his blade away," she started to devise her plan.


The guard had just made it up the stairs when he was immobilized by Blitz. Blitz gave a short and harsh inquiry asking who the impersonator was. The man smiled and replied, "You know who we are you pathetic dog!" he replied in a smug tone. "Or maybe you are so stupid or maybe in the dark so much you don't know about any rebel groups! I won't be the one to tell you anything more!"


Evelyn saw her chance and took it. The guard had shifted his posture slightly when he had gotten distracted by a sound upstairs. She reached back with her left hand and grabbed his hurt wrist and applied a great amount of pressure in two singular points. The man yelled out in pain as that became all he could do, and she pushed away his hand with the blade then grabbed the blade. She turned her body and pulled him forward and threw him in front of her. "Why so you want the ancient ones dead?!" she demanded.

"That's a stupid question wench, we want to usher in a new era with new rulers and supreme laws and in order to do that the current must be erased," the guard replied while looking at her smugly. Evelyn was about to ask something else when her body started to become heavy and her vision blurry. "And that blade that I cut you with has a nice little coating of Marvalo Poison on it. Seems like my partner has been captured I'll just make myself scarce," he said smugly as he walked up to her and grabbed her by her hair, "Thank the spirits of your forest I don't have the time or I'd enjoy torturing you to death with your own poisons," he said and then opened the door and disappeared into the shadows of the outside area.



The capture impersonator started to laugh at Blitz and said, "You may as well kill me and try to find out as much as you can through my available files because if you say here like this much longer your little elven maiden downstairs will be dead in a matter of minutes. Course if you go down there now I'm sure even you could find the antidote for simple Marvalo Poison, after all... you're in a clerical pharmacy shop."



Evelyn was able to barely make her way to one of her shelves in the back corner of the room and looked up to see the antidote labeled 'Anti-Marvalo' on it. She barely made it to the shelf though and could barely lift her arms. Her legs gave way underneath her as her body felt like it was having ton after tone of weight put on it. "Why is what I always need out of reach?" she thought to herself as her vision became so blurry everything was becoming shapes and when she attempted to move her body would only shudder. "Marvalo Poison, it travels through the veins quickly. A small amount won't kill a person unless highly concentrates, normally a torture device of sorts. It makes the body feel heavier to the point when the person poisoned with it eventually starts to be put into unbearable pain from the feeling of their body being caused even though this symptom is psychological due to some of the chemical reactions your brain has from the poison. Vision blurs, however hearing is increased.... what a nice way to end up dying, listening to Blitz and some lowlife who probably is just a lap dog in his gang argue," she thought as she sat there with the feeling of weight and pressure being added while she listened to the rumbling upstairs.

Evelyn had been on the floor a few moments and could hear the mishaps upstairs. "Oh no..... he killed the guy. That may had some repercussions for me later...." she thought as she laid there on the floor feeling the pressure bear down on her. Before she knew it Blitz was there and calling her Evvy, of course in her mind now the only thing she could think was "Why is he calling me that?" She dully watched him as he looked on the shelves and wanted to smile so badly when she saw he had grabbed the right antidote.

He put it on her cut and she could feel the burn as the antidote started fighting off the toxins directly in the wound. She found it surprising that he had gone to the length to make sure he administered the antidote correctly that he even pour some into her mouth. She looked up at him as her vision started to clear and the pressure started to lift. Her whole body ached and burned as the toxins left but it didn't bother her very much. She smiled up at him and the first thing she said was, "Thank you Lord Blitz."

She looked over at the door the other impersonator had left open, "I'm sorry, I don't know why I couldn't stop two lowlifes like them." she started to move, her body was sore and a little shaky but she was already recovering. She sat up and looked up at Blitz curiously, she wanted to ask him about him calling her Evy and was about to when she realized her neck was still bleeding. "Oh... I'm sorry it seems I've bleed on you," she said as she looked at Blitz's hands which had gotten a small amount of blood on them. She stood up slowly, "I should bandage this," she added and then made her way to a small door behind the very last shelf, it opened into a small bathroom. and she started to clean the wound. The sink became stained with the blood thinned by the water as it circled the drain. Her hands were still shaky as she tried wrapping the bandage around her neck. She frowned when she saw her shotty job of dressing her wound.

She undid her bandage and got some clean gauze and turned to Blitz. "Lord Blitz, I'm sorry to ask but.... could you help? I'm afraid my hands are still a bit shaky to properly wrap my wound. " She held the gauze out to him and looked up at him, she hesitated and then asked, "Wh why did you call me Evvy?" The room was oddly silent, the sounds of the forest seemed to stop as she asked him about his recent term of endearment. She found it odd that he would called her anything other than Miss Lynosry or Evelyn. He was a werewolf and on top of that one of the four ancients, most of the time their race was too proud for such things.

Evelyn stood there as Blitz wrapped her neck and listened to his confused reply to her question. She looked to the side the whole time as he wrapped the bandages around her neck and could feel the warmth from his hands. "I see," was all she said when he was done explaining. She he took a step back and asked it the job he did was okay she moved her neck around to test the tightness of the bandages and smiled up at him, "It's very good Lord Blitz, thank you very much." she said. She looked around a moment unsure of what to say and then sighed.

"Well.... there's a dead body bleeding into my second floor, so I guess we should go find the actual night guard. You may want to stay her out of si....." she stopped what she was saying remembering that he had taken it upon himself to watch her in the time she had been allotted to inventory her store. "Ha ha never mind," she added and then walked passed him and out of her shop. It was obvious she had become a bit more on guard, but to her joy she didn't have to leave at all, the two night guards assigned to here area had just turned onto her pathway. She waved them down and they came over.

"What is it Miss Lynosry? What happened? Why do your clothes have blood on them?" the guards started to flood her with questions both of normal protocol and genuine concern for a fellow elf. Evelyn stood leaning on the side of her door way trying to hid the after effects of the toxins still in her body from both the guards and Blitz. She explained to the guards the gist of what happened leaving out details on why one of the ancients was there and what had happened in Netherfield. The guards nodded and one of them went off to notify others while the other guard asked Evelyn to how him the body. She nodded and then walked up stairs with the guard following her in suit.

As she went upstairs the guard stopped by Blitz, "I understand that you are one of the leaders of your race, but please understand that in Longbourn you are a visitor here and if we have any reason to suspect that you were some how secretly involved with this attack we will arrest you Lord Blitz," he said, it was an official message but there was obviously some suspicion in the guards voice. He gave a slight bow and then followed Evelyn up the stairs. She had found the body and was looking to the side away from it. Blood had indeed started to flow from the body but since that time the flow had stopped shortly after his heart had and the bleeding ceased, so there was only a small amount on the floor. The other guard returned with others and they moved the body out of the house and brought some cleaning pixies who cleaned the stains and blood from the wood and then they left transporting the body to be inspected in a near by morg.

The guards said they would notify Evelyn when they had identified the body and gotten more information and spoke to her more. She thought it was a little off they weren't asking Blitz very much, but understood that his presence there probably made them all uneasy. A short while later they left and Evelyn turned to Blitz and said, "I'm going to get out of these bloodied clothes I'll be right back." she walked into her room and gently closed the door. She stood with her back against the door for a few moments clearly unnerved by the thought of a man dying in her home, but shook it off and slid out of her clothes. She left them fall to the floor and then kicked them over by her dresser and went into her closet and grabbed a white dress. She put it on and it showed her feminine figure much better than that of her heavy multi-layered travel wear. It had simple thin straps for sleeves and had a somewhat corset styled back that tied together with string that could be adjust to fit anyone's body. The bottom was to midway between her thighs and knees in the front and flowed into a longer back that went to her ankles at the longest point.

She smiled to herself happy to be out of her travel clothes and into her casual wear and stretched slightly before opening her door and walking out. she looked over at Blitz and started walking to him, "I forgot to ask earlier, you aren't hurt anywhere are you Lord Bli," her question was cut off as her legs seemed to give out under her and she started to fall forwards. Blitz caught her with ease and held her steady until she regained herself. "I'm sorry, some of the toxins are still in my body so my movements my be a little on the ditzy side for the next day or so," she explain as she regained herself and then took a step back from him. "But are you alright?" she asked again. "Either way I should recheck that wound on your chest to make sure that it didn't reopen in the commotion," she added.

Evelyn moved her arms around Blitz as she unwrapped the bandages around his chest. She tried to focus on working and not the fact the she was doing the equivalent of embracing Blitz, she hid her blush and kept it from moving to the surface of her face by deepening her breathing slightly. At one point she caught herself just stopping and holding her arms around him for a split second but she quickly realized it and continued on. Once she finished unwrapping his wounds she set the bandaged aside and looked at his wound. She frowned slightly and then got up and said, "Stay put I'll be right back," and with that she walked back down to the first floor and got the same medicine she had used on him earlier that day.

As she grabbed the bottle she stood there in perpetual stillness and finally let her mind take a moment to get back to what it had pushed away until the major issues of the night had been taken care of. "I matter to him? ....Why would I matter to him? He's a werewolf, on top of that one of the leaders, why would he care about me? A forest elf who isn't even royalty of some sort?" all these questions flooded through her head as she stood there looking at her slightly transparent reflection on the bottle she was holding.

"And what am I doing?! Setting myself up to get cut down that's what! I can't just think that someone like him would ever truly care about someone like me!" she thought as she started to walk back to the stairs. ".... But why would he say it? He doesn't seem like the type to lie..... I don't know what to do, what to say, how to say it. I'm so stupid!" she kept degrading herself in her head and finally she started walking back up the stairs. As she did she let out a deep sigh and pushed the thoughts to the back of her mind again and went back to hiding the many emotions she was feeling. "I can't be vulnerable right now..." she mumbled to herself. She walked back into the room Blitz was in and had her usual expression covering her face in a mask of lies.

"Sorry for the wait I forgot where exactly on the shelf I put it," she said as she walked back in front of him. She looked at his wounds closely again, they hadn't reopened but they weren't healing properly by the looks of it. She put some of the medicinal ointment on her finger tips and started to lightly and gently apply if on his wound and skin. She stayed focused keeping her eyes on his wound making sure she wouldn't be too rough and reopen it as well. "Lord Blitz.... are you feeling any discomfort right now? If so please tell me your wound wasn't exactly a nice one and I'm sure me having to pull out a werewolf's claw wasn't pleasant. I didn't exactly go prepared with the proper tools to do that so if something went wrong then and it's causing you any problems now I need to know. I'd never forgive myself if I were the cause of health problems for you," she explained as she stayed focused on the wound. She didn't even realized that she had said 'you' instead of what she thought she said which was generalizing him and calling him a patient. She had kept it personal something she was afraid to do.

She still couldn't help but notice how warm he was, "You'd think I'd be used to his body temperature by now. My hands must feel like ice every time I touch him," she thought as she continued slowly placing the ointment on his wounds. "Wait, I shouldn't think like that..... It shouldn't matter id my hands are old or not to him, I should stop worrying, why do I even care about him and what he thinks so much?!" she started to yell at herself in her head again but simply smiled as she finished applying the medicinal ointment. She looked up at him and said, "That's taken care of. So are you in any pain Lord Blitz? If not I'll re-wrap your wound now," she said and then patiently waited for his answer.

Evelyn had just finished redressing Blitz's wound when he had taken a deep breath. She didn't think much of it and was about to say something else when she felt his hand move around the back of her neck. He quickly bent down and kissed her, she froze up for a moment and her head was wiped clean of all thoughts. All that she could register was the feel of his body close to hers and his hand on the back of her neck and, most intensely, his lips on hers. She felt relief and happiness start to wash over her as she realized that this was his way of telling her how he felt. He had broken the kiss and started to look at her trying to gauge her reaction. She was still slightly surprised and knew she was blushing deeply. She then smiled up at him and move her hands over his shoulders and stood up on her tip toes to reach him and then started to kiss him back with just as much passion and warmth as he had when he kissed her.

She loved the feeling of their lips together and being this close to him. After a few more moments she pulled back some and looked up at him. She started to let her true feelings show through now, her eyes revealed her shy insecurity of opening herself to him, and at the same time they were showing the joy she was feeling at that moment. She couldn't help but just gaze into his eyes unsure of what to do now and still enjoying the fact that they had just kissed and were still so close. Finally, unable to think of anything else to say she said the first thing that came to her head, "So..... you like me too Blitz," she said in a soft but cheerful tone. She enjoyed that fact that she had dropped the Lord title and became less formal.

She stayed close to him keeping her arms around him, lacing her fingers behind his neck. "I've never felt this way for someone so shortly after I met them," she added looking down to the side shyly. Then she looked back at him with concern in her eyes this time, "But.... I've already put you in danger once tonight, and what about your brothers? I don't think they'd be too happy if they found out we were together... Not to mention I think Christos suspects me of something along illegal terms and when he hears about the attack tonight he won't be happy," she said quietly. All these thoughts started to flood her now, she didn't want to put Blitz in any danger weather it be from an unknown enemy or his own brothers. There was a short silence, she didn't give him time to respond if he even intended to. She smiled up at him again and said, "I'm too happy to care right now though." She leaned up and gently kissed him once more and then stood there not intending to break their embrace until he did. She didn't know what else to do and at that moment she was happy not knowing what to do next and not knowing what was going to happen next.

Evelyn simply was smiling up at Blitz after they had kissed for so long. She loved everything about this moment: her being close to him, her hands touching him, the feel of his large powerful yet gentle hands on her waist and neck. Her joy of the moment was short lived though as she watched him wince and her happiness was replaced with worry. She watched him as he started to try to breathe deeply and then found a nearby chair to sit in before she could register enough to do something. She snapped out of her worried daze and came over to his side and knelled down beside him.

She waited until it seemed his pain had subsided, before she could say anything he tried to convince her that it wasn't her fault and even went as for to apologize. "You've nothing to apologize for...." she said as she looked at his chest with a worry that she shared for both a patient of hers and the only man she had affections for. She had so many thoughts running through her head now. "He shouldn't be in that much pain, even Elves shouldn't experience pain to that magnitude with a wound like that if it was treated properly let alone a werewolf. What if it's just Blitz who has the pain? Then it's all my fault and I could be putting him in even more danger. ...But if Christos were to be having this same pain I'm unsure on if he would think it normal or blame me," she thought.

She refocused again and looked up at Blitz, "Well we should move you to the bed, staying sitting causes some of your muscles in that part of your chest to pull and other to tighten," she said. She slowly helped him up and led him back to her bed room and had him lay on his back on her bed. "There hopefully the comfort will help relax your muscles and help relieve and excess pain you may be having," she said as he laid on the bed. the best she could hope for until she knew more was that her bed would be comfortable enough to him to do jut that and make his muscles relax.

She walked over to her dresser and got one of her medical journals and started flipping through the pages of it. She sat on the side of her bed as she did and glanced over at him and then back to her journal. "Okay I need you to answer these truthfully, there could be something seriously wrong. Anything from there being some of the claw still in your wound, to an allergic reaction to the medicine or even an infection." she explained and then continued. "Okay, does it hurt on all of your cuts or just on your chest? Is it a burning sensation or does it feel like someone is stabbing you? And where does it hurt the most?"

She found some pages that may have something to do with their current predicament, she stopped and held her place on them and then looked up from her book and to Blitz waiting for his answers. "I knew something was wrong when I saw his wounds.... I should have done something earlier," she thought as she mentally beat herself up over her mistake, and fearing what all lay in store for her, even more so Blitz, over it.

Evelyn frowned as he explained where the pain was and what it felt like. She compared the symptoms to those of some of the things in her journal and she started to yell at herself more for making such a careless mistake. She cleared her min and detached herself from Blitz going into full on cleric mode knowing if she got too emotional over it being Him she made the mistake with her mind would become clouded and she may make another mistake. "I'll be right back," she sad and stood up leaving her journal on the bed. She quickly walked out to her balcony and up to her laboratory.

She looked around and quickly found some medical herbs, disinfectants, and medical tools. She turned on two of her burners and let the waters come to a boil. In the other she melted down some of the herbs she had grabbed. She quickly took a needle and filled it with the liquid from the herbs, and in the other water she sterilized her tools. She grabbed some gloves and went back down the stairs to return to Blitz.

"Sorry that took so long," she said as she walked back in and placed everything she had on a nearby silver tray on a small table next to her bed. She grabbed the needle and flicked it to make sure the substance within didn't separate and said, "This is going to numb the area around your wound. In order to find out what's wrong for sure I'm going to have to reopen the wound and examine it again." she explained. "Little sting," she warned as she put the meddle in and injected some of the fluid and then pulled it out and put in back in in another spot around his wound and repeated it till the fluid was gone from the needle.

She placed the needle on the table making sure not to put it on the sterile silver tray she had her tools and medicines on. She slipped on her gloves and looked at him, "I'm not one hundred percent sure but I think you have an infection, and now I want to double check to make sure I got all of the claw out," she said as she looked at a nearby clock. Two minutes passed and she grabbed a small scalpel. "You may be numb but you will probably feel a twinge," she warned and then cut open the largest, the center cut of the three, first. She looked at the wound and then bent her head down and smelled it. "There's no puss but it's definitely got the starts of an infection for sure. I have some anti-bioctics I'll use after I check for anything left in the wound." she stated and then put the scalpel down.

"Alright this will definitely hurt. I have to push the immediate muscles under you skin slightly to check for any anomalies," she said and gave him a moment to brace himself. Then she took her index and middle finger and started pushing in on his skin. She hated the fact she was causing him pain but simply kept going determined to fix anything wrong with him. Then she found it she could tell by many ways, there was a hard sport right past the end of one of the slashes, she could feel Blitz tense as she hit it, clearly causing him more pain than anywhere else. "Okay I guess part of the tip of the claw must have broken off when I was pulling it out earlier," she said. She got up and grabbed a pair of thin long tongs she had sterilized.

"Sorry about this, I need to be at a different angle to pull it out while causing you the least amount of pain and make sure I pull all of it out this time," she said. She got on her bed and put one of her legs on either side of him and held herself up over him. She place her left hand on his shoulder and put some of her weight down on it to hold him down just in case the pain started any reflexes. Then she placed the tongs in his wound slowly pushing further in and then started to slowly open them up enough to move around the claw. A procedure that would make him more uncomfortable then put him in pain. The easy part was over, she looked at him and said, "This is going to hurt as much as it did when I pulled the large claw out earlier," she said and then started to slowly and carefully pull back on the tongs. she could feel his muscles tensing under her hand and didn't look up to see his face. She pulled the tongs out to see a piece o the claw, about half the length of her pinky finger in the tongs. She placed it on the nearby table next to the needle and then pushed on his skin in that area again to make sure she got everything out from under it. She continued pushing around in other areas and around the smaller two wounds she hadn't reopened to make sure there was nothing in them either.

She moved off the bed again and grabbed some disinfectant liquids and poured them on all of his wounds including the smaller ones. She removed the bloodied gloves she had on and then re-wrapped his wounds and gently pushed him back down on the bed. "You should probably rest Blitz," she finally said letting her mind leave its clerical mode. she put all of the now used and dirtied tools on the silver tray and brought them back up to the lab. She started to clean them of slightly and put them away. "How could I be so stupid as to miss something like that?! If he hadn't gone with me he could have been in serious trouble right now, werewolf regeneration or not." she mumbled to herself as she put up the tools. "I shouldn't have let the fear of being arrested take up so much of my mind and I should have focused more on his wounds like I normally do!" she said kicking a nearby shelf.

She slowly walked back down the stairs to her balcony. She stopped and looked up at the moon, it was almost full, it would probably be only three or four days to the full moon. "It's so beautiful," she mumbled as she looked up at it. Then she walked in her room from her balcony and looked over at Blitz, "I'm sorry, that was all my fault," she said.

Evelyn looked up at Blitz and couldn't help but to giggle at his winking more than anything else. "Oh really? Well if you're not okay with it I may just have to hurt you more the next time I dress your wound," she said jokingly as she smiled up at him. She noticed his hand squeezing hers slightly and she laced her fingers with his and held onto his hand. She moved slightly and went to kiss him when she felt the sensation of something light landing on her leg. She looked to see Jaclyn on her leg and smiled not minding too much that she knew her moment with Blitz was broken.

"Well hello there Jaclyn," she said in her usual calm voice completely voice of the slight nervous tone she had had before. She looked over to see Genevieve Heather and Kate Lynn flying over and all landing on her legs. She was about to greet them all when Night came up and stood on one of her knees. She laughed softly and said, "Well don't I feel like a perch now?" She greeted them all and then listened and watched as they were their usual contradicting selves. Jaclyn being clueless who Blitz was at first, Genevieve being respectful, Kate Lynn a little anti social and Heather being the only normal balanced one of the bunch at the moment. She couldn't help but laugh, then Genevieve started trying to convince Blitz to let her heal him as if she were a shady sales person.

She used Evelyn's neck wound as an example and healed it with ease, "At least now I won't have to worry about scaring," Evelyn thought as Genevieve went from healing her to convincing Blitz again. Then she asked for Evelyn's input. She was quiet for a moment then said, "Oh the pain, it's so unbearable I can't even writhe in agony!" in a fake crying tone. She the chuckles and said, "No, she's a good little healer thought Blitz, your wounds would heal in no time anyways but she'll just speed the process even more, and completely get rid of that nasty infection in the process so you won't have to deal with that pain either." she said reassuringly.

Night looked on curiously at all of them and then nudged Kate Lynn with his head and quickly flipped her over him to where she landed on her back and then he started to strut around on the bed like a cocky steed. "Well.... that's something you don't see everyday, Genny did you put something in that medicine?" she asked sarcastically.

Evelyn was just having a good time and enjoying the company around here when Tarrence started to be his usual flirtatious self. He started attempting to eat off her plate and then flirt with her some. It was obvious Blitz didn't like it and should couldn't help but smile at how possessive he was over her. Then Tarrence decided to drag her into his and Blitz's conversation which was a mistake on his part.

Evelyn smiled and said, "Come here Tarrence," and she moved her index finger. And held it out for him to land on. He fluttered up to it and she moved her face really close to him and said in a soft eerie tone, "Any illusion you have there being an 'us' ever is a physically impossible dream. Also ... don't eat off my plate," she said and then gently flicked him off her finger onto the bed. She smiled slightly and then went back to eating. "Sooo what were you guys talking about while I was gone?" she asked, but before they could answer there was another knock on her door. she sighed and got up off her bed, "I'm popular tonight," she said jokingly as she left the room and walked down the stairs.

She went to her door and opened it to see a messenger from Netherfield standing in front of her. "Oh.... hello," she said in a slightly surprised tone. The messenger nodded and then started to explain why he was there. That Lord Christos was going through phases of severe pain and bed ridden from it at the moment and that she and Blitz were summoned to the castle and that she needed to leave immediately.

He then turned and left to head back and she shut her door and sighed, "I knew this would happen," she said in a worried tone as she quickly walked up stairs. She walked back into her room and grabbed a small bag. she looked up at Blitz and said, "Christos is having pain issues and we've been called back to the castle," she said in a tone that clearly showed she wasn't liking the idea. She grabbed a change of clothes and remembered her traveling clothes were still bloody and sighed when she figured she'd have to travel in what she was wearing.

She walked up the stairs from her balcony to get more medicines she knew would take care of Christos' problems. She was completely packed in a few minutes and then walked back into her room and took a deep breath to get herself to slow down. She looked over at the fairies, Blitz, and Night. Then she looked directly at Blitz and said, "I'm ready to go when you are." She looked over at the fairies unsure of weather or not they should come. She was frantic, flustered, and worried but started to hide it behind her usual calm emotional mask. She started to wonder if Christos would blame his pain on her or just think it was his own dong for not accepting pain medication, and either way he probably had an infection like Blitz's which was completely her fault and she worried what repercussions it would have for her.
