Vampire-Tavern

[shadowhound]

Shadow stops and tries to decide whether to keep looking or to head back to the tavern, after a while he turns and starts to walk back towards where he thinks the tavern is.

ooc- ah yes, very helpful of you shadow. [img]tongue.gif[/img] why dont you use those nice new vampyre powers of yours?

ic- Skye started to laugh harshly in someone else's voice. Going to take ME to the abyss? No, no, I think not. Perhaps this feminine body, yes, as well as yours. But I will find another host even more powerful. It is too bad you changed her into a vampyre... she could have defeated me... She laughed again, gratingly. How ironic that I would infest the person who can destroy me...

Duo listened intently to Laisrean and Skye's mental conversation. 'No, not Skye, an evil spirit,' she corrected herself. Her ears pricked mentally with excitement at the last words it spoke. Laisrean, you can still defeat it! It said "can destroy me," not "could have destroyed me" she thought excitedly. Try getting Skye back to her senses, help her break away from the creature's control. Maybe there's a way to reverse vampyrism?

ooc- Laisrean's too nice to kill off.. [img]smile.gif[/img]

she sits silently still becoming more and more aggitated. In a deep growleing voice she sent a message back to duo:
Bring her back here if you want her to live and be sane i strongly suggest that you bring her back here.
making it very clear that when her advice is not take she is a very irritable person she relaxes in her chair and awaits their arrival. Suddenly she closes her eyes and thinks quietly to herself her lonleyness becomeing overwhelming. thinking of her lack of trust for others made her hurt even more. she opened her eyes and is now drinking and stares at the fire. the flames became blue and intensely hot feeling the heat from accross the room. she sighs and continues her thoughts.

Shadow stumbles across what appears to be a castle of some kind, although disapointed not have found the tavern he strolls into the place, calmly noting the fact that there is no-one to be seen.

"Hello anyone?" He is about to leave or try and find some valueables to steal when he hears voicesm one of which sounds like Duo's. He opens the door and walks into the room.

[Skydracgrrl]

Duo whirled about, seeing Shadow. Grabbing his hand she said "Come with me, we must hurry back to the Vampire Tavern."

ooc- Waiting for Laisrean to make a move with Skye..

[shadowhound]

Shadow just about gets jerked off of his feet, "Fine, fine, I finally find someone and then we have to go back. Wouldnt that be right." But he smiles anyway and follows Duo.

The dark voice rumbling from Skye was enough to make Laisrean nervous, and only as nervous as he was sad. He pulled his arm away, and took her face in his hands. Her eyes glowing an innatural color and glaring vindictively and coldly to Laisrean... But he knew, somewhere lost in the darkness, Skye still fought on. "Skye, you can't let this be! Don't let this happen to you! To Duo!" A small tear fell from his cheek onto the Tavern roof, as if in slow motion, the sound was deep and quiet, and that was the final sound he heard. He stared deeply into Skye's eyes, screaming her name loudly and desperately... He couldn't hear his voice. He was slipping into a second death, the final death.

"What of Duo? Will you kill her too?! You can't let this happen to her, you can't let this happen...to us..." He was shouting as loud as he could, and still he wandered if she could hear him. His wrist wound poured and poured, until it slowed, slower, and slower... He could only hope what Duo was near, in this state he couldn't feel anything, much less use his vampyric senses. In his final moments he could only look into the eyes of his attacker, who was the only mortal he had ever had feelings for. The wind rushed over him as an icy breath of death... eyesight fading...

Was this demon before him still an assailant? Or, indeed an angel of death, who had come to take him away? His eyes then closed, and he felt the world slip away, wishing only for someone to come and save him...

Skye screamed inwardly, seeing with her eyes but unable to do anything. The spirit smiled cruelly, looking down at the dying vampyre. He was too weak. What a waste... Skye suddenly looked grim. "Wuh.. What are you doing! You foolish creature! You're nothing without me!" the blackness hissed angrily, and with more than a little fear, Skye noticed.

In her cold rage, she had brought her arm up to her lips and tore away at her veins with her newly formed fangs. Pulling Laisrean around so he was leaning against her, she placed her bloodied arm across his mouth, securing her grip with her other hand. Skye's eyes narrowed as the vindictive spirit struggled to regain control of her body. Her hand tightened around her wrist, drawing blood where her nails pierced through her skin. Please, wake up Laisrean... I can't hold off much longer... she pleaded mentally, her head starting to swim with the sudden change from half-elf to vampyre, and the major loss of blood she was undergoing at the moment.

ooc- hmm.. hope this sounds ok.. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Laisrean was swarmed in nothingness, the only feeling obvious was a frigid cold that had overtook his soul. He was lost an abyss, a forever spiral downward. One would assume a purgatory, the damned were fallen from grace, no place in the Heavens, and even the pits of Hell would not take the nightdrifters. Laisrean could move in the eternal darkness, but the feeling was much different than that of the world he had always known. Moving left, then right, down and up, all at once it would seem. It was in this place that he waited, for what seemed as lifetimes...

He felt a pull from the inside, and his eyesight brought to view his own immortal body lying alone on the Tavern roof. He felt a strange sensation, though bodiless, a strange sensation struck what would be his throat. The feeling was the first thing he had felt in the long time in final death, and the feeling, although haunting, was a perfect feeling. Looking at his body he saw it moving towards him, eyes hanging open in its dead state. It frightened him, and he had no choice but to let it encounter him. It then stood in front of him, silently, motionless, for minutes...

Thud. Laisreans attention focused on that single sound for what seemed as hours. Thud, thud, it got louder and louder, quicker, until racing. The body's eyes opened widely, and Laisrean drifted quickly back into his body! His eyes shot open, looking to Skye in amazement. The chill began to rise from his feet, legs, thighs, uncovering him completely until his Vampyric feelings returned to him once more. Laisrean had come back from final death, and felt more alive than ever before. The thud was a heartbeat, the sensation was blood. Skye's blood.

He sat up quickly, taking her blood willingly. This time more refreshing than ever before, he had went a long, long time in death without it. He pulled away and gasped, looking to Skye amazed...

Skye gave him a pained smile, as she continued to hold her gashed wrist. Whether because he had just drank her blood or because he had just returned from his final death, Laisrean could see her aura around her, as well as the suppressed darkness swirling about her, angry crimson slashes welling up inside it, threatening to consume her.
"I am... glad you are alright," she whispered weakly, before her eyes rolled up into her head in a faint. Falling over backwards, she fell over the edge of the roof. Rushing to the side, Laisrean looked down. Skye lay on her back, her body at an awkward angle. The opaque shadow surged forward gleefully, no longer held in check by Skye's now unconscious spirit. It submerged down into her body, encasing her in its malicious blackness, slowly smothering and suffocating her, absorbing her power and will. I shall rise again! Akumu shall once again be uttered in terror at the coming of darkness! The shadow laughed, a sound that chilled the blood and marrow of anyone who heard it.
