Chani Ravenwood
~Her face portrayed deep agony as she looked up at her friend. She quickly shook her head.~ "No... No, I haven't gone deaf... I..." Locke Foresthide ~He looked down at her in a concerned manner and interrupted.~ "What's wrong? What happened?" ~At her troubled silence he lugged her to her feet, took her head in his hands and made her look him straight in the eye.~ "Speak to me!" Chani Ravenwood ~She felt fresh tears come to her sore eyes and streak down her cheeks. Her face crumpled to sorrow and confusion.~ "Locke it's just so terrible and... She would never... I thought I could... Oh! I just want to go home!" ~A tremor of distress ran down her spine. She felt herself collapse onto him.~ Locke Foresthide ~He exhaled disturbance as she fell on him. His eyes averted to the side quickly. He then warily surrendered his arms, reassuring gestures followed.~ "There there..." ~He shook his head, trying to lighten the atmosphere.~ "Agh this isn't right. You're supposed to be the man! You always were before!" Chani Ravenwood ~Her body heaved in a humorous scoff.~ "And you used to be funny. Seems we've both changed." ~She shook her own head and recoiled.~ "Locke... You're the first person who hasn't said: You are home Chani." Locke Foresthide ~He shrugged.~ "Home is where your heart rests, isn't it?" ~He looked at her in the eyes.~ "I don't think they realize the possibility that you might have a life away from here." ~He watched her sorrowful eyes avert downward.~ "And looking at you now, I'd wager you did." ~He rolled his shoulders.~ Chani Ravenwood ~She looked at her friend in astonishment.~ "You understand." ~She turned back to hyper.~ "But Mistral, how... And Larry, I wonder... I mean, is Deiter even..." Locke Foresthide ~He stopped the flow of uneasiness mid-sentence.~ "Spree, Chain, Chani, CALM DOWN!" ~He tried to remain forceful in spite of pity for her.~ "I can listen, but only when your words make sense. I CAN'T read your mind!" ~He took a deep breath and gave a reassuring gesture.~ "Now, take it slow. I'll still be here. What's distressing you so?" Chani Ravenwood ~She nodded her head slowly and swallowed.~ "W...Well, it's Nightblade... H... Oh you're never going to believe this!" ~The hyper-venilation returned.~ Locke Foresthide ~He shook his head, rubbing his sinuses patiently with his fingers. He looked at her.~ "Chain I am the most gullible bastard you will ever hope to meet; I have a lot of trust instilled in you from over the years. If you told me the sky was falling, I'd duck for cover. If you told me I was dead I'd dig a hole and crawl right in. You can relax about looking stupid, I do it all the time, it's really not that bad." Chani Ravenwood ~She nodded her head slowly, forcing a thin teary smile.~ "Well... Nightblade..." ~Her head snapped to the side as she was suddenly interuppted.~ Quabola Wolfrun ~He stepped from the bush with a convincing growl, even though he was in elven form.~ "Cyrus Nightblade is dead Miss Ravenwood. I don't know why you waste your breath on him." ~He turned his gaze venomously to Locke.~ "I told YOU to stay away from her." ~His intent eyes, it seemed as if looking at something with them would cause the thing to burn.~ Locke Foresthide ~He returned the glare, his dark brown eyes becoming twice as convincingly angry as Li's. But he said nothing. Unless he wanted to be killed, it was best not to anger Li. Normally the lythari was in good humor and rather comic, but lately he had become a wretched ancient ass-hole.~ |

Chani Ravenwood
~She watches silently as the two stared eachother down. A frightened shiver ran down her spine. She'd never seen either of them so furious. Why does Li want Locke to stay away from me? Of all people why Locke?! She watched both of them, not daring to say a word. Li's pale skin held a silver glow underneath the influence of the dark clouds. His neatly combed silver hair blew on soft cool breezes. His green eyes were seething apparent hatred. Hatred! Arrakis and Locke were always Li's favorites! What the hell could have changed between then and now? Li's tall frame seemed mountanous and casted a great long shadow over the ground. A most forboding sight was he. Locke was none the less. Locke was even taller than Li, and due to the old age of his mentor, nearly twice as fit. Locke's abyssal dark eyes locked with Li's. I'm waiting for an explosion between those eyes! Finally she could take it no more, and stepped between the two, raising a palm to each.~ "Stop it!" Locke Foresthide ~He looked at Chani momentarily and his gaze softened. He nodded his head with a grunt and stepped back. He looked at Li under his friend's restraint.~ "You can't just hide her away and hope nothing happens! She's not a child anymore! She has a life and we have no right to interfere!" |

(ooc: Packers won! YAY!!!!
![]() Quabola Wolfrun ~His glare grew even harsher and his features seemed to be made of jagged cut stone.~ "Noble as your intentions may be it is not your position to cast judgement Mister Foresthide. You've proved unworthy in the ways of wisdom. Now. Go home." Chani Ravenwood ~She watched as Locke turned away, listening to dark mutterings she could not quite make out. She looked to Li, disbelief, anger, confusion, and tears all clouding her vision and features.~ "LI! What the HELL is going on?!" Quabola Wolfrun ~He shook his head solemnly, the normal calm features residing.~ "It is not for me to say." ~He then turned and walked away.~ The Ghost Of Cyrus Nightblade "Some help he is, eh?" "Tell me about it..." ~Chani leaped around in surprise and he smiled.~ "Don't worry, their problems don't really concern you. All I can say is not to fear disobeying Li. He needs to see that you have grown." ~He smiled proudly at his daughter.~ "And you have indeed." ~He sighed, looking at the ground.~ "If you need me... Us... We'll find you. Trust me." ~With a final thin smile his ghostly form dissapeared.~ |

![]() ![]() I was reading through some old one-eyed wolf threads... Ah the days when kisses and pop-tarts were plenty... I miss those times! I could never replace a Deiter though. ~Sighs~ Welp... Guess I'll see ya'll tommorow. Maybe the roads'll ice over and they'll cancel school. That'd just be lame if we had the worst snow/ice storm in 30 years and school dosen't even get canceled.

Tale of the One-Eyed Wolf
Part One Rest'raunt opened off'ring food There in Athklata it stood Banding Aerie-hating ones Cracking many hurtful puns A.L.S.B. came to fight Shedding unto darkness light Furious combat taking place Drifting off to forest maze Loner lady passes by Rest'raunt silent; wonders why Hostage taken, tension piles Time to think of winning wiles Half-elf enters, striking foe Suffers damage, blow by blow Blazing fire engulfs room Lady knows she's facing doom Casts last spell to free half-elf Then is imprisoned herself Haunts Waverider ev'rywhere Fin'lly released from his lair Injured elf needs urgent aid Favour owed is now repaid Pensive ranger wielding blades Meets two half-elves 'pon some glades Forming an unlikely band Finding aim in foreign land Lady bumps into them now Seek hist'ry she must somehow Names revealed to one and all Bricks are knocked off from the wall Waiting for the brand new day What future holds, none can say...

ooc: ~Groans~ I have a most terrible stomach ache... Nice poem though Mistral!
As for block-buster Larry... It may be a tale worthy of a bard, But the epic quest would be quite hard, To complete without his soul, As he plays a leading role, To continue without would be forbade, I couldn't do it without my Leafblade. Oh... My tummy hurts... This is not good... I've got a mortal fear of puking. |
