He sighed heavily after she had already shut herself into the room not allowing him to explain anything. His plans were to tell her why he didn't allow himself to get close to anyone, let alone another of the noble or royal families. She was right though he didn't really take charge in his life, he tried a few times but most were shot down so easily that he had given up on getting out of this loop of hell he call ed a life.

He needed to talk to her tomorrow, not that she'd probably understand but he still needed to talk to her. Or that was his plan anyway when he woke up. Though a guard handed him the note after he had walked to her room. Reading it over he rolled his eyes a little. 'She tells me to take charge and then runs away? tsk' He hissed in his mind before walking away from the guard who seemed a little confused.

She probably had walked all through the night, she'd be the type to do that.. where was she. Oh wait he had told her Vaden never changed his location really so she'd be heading there. That was at least a few days walk depending on the pace. She might be half way by now if she walked the whole night, give or take a little.

He wouldn't have really cared if it wasn't for the fact that he had upset her last night, he always watched himself trying to not be too forward and yet he still managed to fuck it up somehow. Either way he could catch up to her he thought as he entered the stables. There were rows of horses but thats what the creature he was looking for, he needed something that ran a little faster.

At the far end there was a stall that contained a reptilian like creature that was half covered in feathers and half covered in scales. The beast had hunter eyes and claws that would make you think twice about messing with it. It's tail swayed a little as it noticed Zek standing there. He smirked a little "you and me have something we have to do ... " he spoke to the beast as if it understood.

It might have had two legs compared to a horses four but it's speed was hardly something to snort at, Raptus is what they were called, a sort of breed of raptor that was domesticated years ago and is larger then most of it's counterparts. They were hard as hell to tame and even tamed were known to kill the riders. Not that Zek had that worry, besides he had a talent for beasts like this one from dealing with dragons at a young age.

The creature was hissing out it's breaths as it ran, he had ran it from early morning to some time in the afternoon. Though for the time being he saw no trace of Elvara. What was he expecting really. She didn't want to be found thus she probably wouldn't be.

He pushed the beast on a while longer before he noticed someone on the road ahead. It took most of the damned day but he had finally caught up to her as he yelled to her and received a glare at the fact he had bothered. Dismounting the beast he half ran over to her panting himself a little. "you... have some damn nerve..." he breathed out trying to regain himself a little.

She still seemed rather annoyed with his face let alone him speaking. "Not even letting me explain anything, and you told me i need to take charge yet you ran away? Tsk.. some advice." he straightened a little before trying to speak again. "You want to know why I keep my distance from nobles or royals, it's not cause of the damn title!"

He started to go on, screw trying to explain things out clearly to her. "believe it or not I am part demon, it's not as easy as you think truth me. The reason why I refuse to let anyone get close or let myself get too tangled with someone is because of what I did over 70 years ago." she seemed a little confused in what he meant by that. "I had grown close to someone, I dare say I might have loved her. The reward she got for bothering to look past my crude actions and selfish ways was death, no I didn't do it on purpose but it was still my damn fault."

If he thought she wouldn't walk away if he went slower on the details then he would have, but he saw her as the type to walk away saying her mission was more important. "So there, some information you probably didn't know. To put it all bluntly I didn't want to hurt you." He bowed his head a little towards her. "Now seeing as you left, I'll take my leave now and allow you to get back to your quest before I cause anymore trouble." he merely shrugged before turning around and walking towards the creature who was still standing there with it's sharp eyes.

[Pinkie]

Elvara stood there and glared as Zek came up. What the hell was he doing here? She had left with enough time to ensure that she wouldnt not be caught up to till she reached the town. Elvara sighed heavily as she Listened to Zek. Slowly her rigid exterior became a little more relaxed before Zek started to walk away.

Elvara fallowed behind him before she reached out and grabbed his hand stopping him in his tracks "You really think you could hurt me?" She asked in a playfull voice as he turned around to look at her "Last I checked we were 3-0 for wins" Elvara said with a little smile and a tilt of her head.

"Besides...I know the risk" She said slightly stepping forward to him "I know you wont hurt me Zekrak..." She said with a light smile on her face "I think I could handle my own anyways" Elvara said before leaning up and kissing the male once more as her other hand rubbed the side of his cheek lightly before she pulled away "But I mean if you really want to go thats up to you" She said with a playfull smile and a little shrug before turning and letting go of his hand.

[Rosekitten]

The glare was expected, hard to not expect it with that note she had left. He wouldn't have really blamed her if she didn't try to strike out at him, though he was prepared this time.. there wouldn't be him just taking the beating. Not when he had things to say to her. Though it would seem she stood there and listened instead of trying to force him away.

He seemed to question her when she said do you think you could really hurt me. Though he frowned a little when she said the win-lose score was 3-0. "I only recall two fights, one I didn't fight back at all and the other I never bothered drawing my weapon...I hardly think thats fair to compare them.." He sighed a little as he faced her. "its not a fact of wanting or the ability to hurt you.. it's more of the chances that I could lose control.. I'm sure if you've done any amount of research into demons you know very well the affects that half bloods go through."

It was a known fact he was a half blooded demon, and the research had proven that all half bloods eventually seemed to break under their own power as the demonic energies took control of them, this either destroyed them or happened multiply times over their lifetime. Though in the end they would be destroyed in some way or another. Vaden was already prepared for if this happened or rather when it happened to Zek.

"If you know then I think your slightly foolish.. heh" he laughed weakly, maybe she was a little more insane then he first thought. He never said a word on her handling herself, sure she could.. but that still worried him, he knew too well what his own powers could do. Though his thought was lost as she moved in and kissed him. It didn't last long though as she seemed to pull away speak once more and turn to walk away leaving him there.

His ears dropped a little "thats not a fair choice.. and you know it" He said before following after her. The creature he had brought with him soon followed him as it seemed to eye Elvara. Zek glared at it a little, the creature seemed to second guess it's choice of actions with biting the female.

[Pinkie]

Elvara smiled and looked behind her as Zek fallowed her. She was hoping for that. As he made it up to her side Elvara smiled at him "So....ready to go see Vaden?" She asked slightly. "Though it is going to be night soon so maybe camp and something to eat?" She asked almost happily.

[Rosekitten]

He sighed a little "not really.. i ditched out on the old man last time remember? He had some test he wanted to run.. im sure he's not forgotten yet." He dreaded the idea. Though she was right it would be dark soon. "Guess we should.. No point in going on, not when you've been walking sense last night.." he shot a little bit of a glare at her.

He never made a comment on eating, though he did eat almost nothing and managed to stay alive, but that was due to other reasons. He had a fear in the back of his mind she was going to be pissed off at him again once they made it to the town, he needed to do something about his energy levels, they were getting to the point where it was affecting him. Once before he had starved himself of the energy.. it wasn't a easy recovery process and he sure as hell didn't want to do it again.

[Pinkie]

Elvara smiled to that "Yeah...what can I say I was angry so the last thing on my mind was sleep" She said in a bit of a laugh. Elvara then turn to get off of path walkig into the trees some way before she found a place with a large tree and a little bit of a grassy clearing. It would be perfect for the night. Elvara then dropped her pack on the ground before walking off.

A moment later she came back with twigs and sticks. "Could you get the fire started...I will be right back' She said with a smile dropping the wood before she left again. Coming back this time she had a rabbit in her hand and three wood logs under her arms. Placing one log on the fire she smiled as the flames soon engulfed and danced over the log.

[Rosekitten]

After she ran off again he sighed and looked at the beast still with them "least i have one use right?" The creature snorted before walking off to find it's own meal for the night. He did as he was told as far as starting a fire. Though he was a little distracted with some thoughts.

The main ones were the fact he needed to get energy somehow and the other was dwelling on the fact that she didn't care about the risks with being close to him. He had half a mind to bring up his issue at hand but decided against it by the time she returned.

After she was back he frowned a little noticing his charge was still missing as he walked away a few feet before letting out a high pitched whistle. The creature hissed a little before walking back as it carried a deer it had found. "... i didn't mean bring it to me! I swear I leave for a while and you lose all of your training.." He sighed a little rubbing his forehead.

[Pinkie]

Elvara watched the weird crature. She had never seen something like it before. Walking over to Zek she stood infront of him "What in goddess creation is that?" She asked with a little tilt of her head "It looks like the out come of a bird mounting a dragon" She said slightly looking to the creature as it brought deer over. She shuddered a little.

[Rosekitten]

He laughed slightly. "they are rare now a days but they use to roam the plains.. though as time went on and tons popped up here and there they became a threat, they are hard to control for starters and they hunt in packs.. They are called Raptus, it's a decedent of the ancient raptor, though they tend to be larger then the prehistoric ones.. they move a bit slower and kept the trait of having feathers." He shrugged a little as the creature snorted and walked off so it could enjoy it's catch. "We use to use them in place of horses because in the caverns they are stronger.. horses can break their legs easily if they step wrong down there. But over time they've become rare.. so this one was found wounded and throwing a fit. It's pack left it behind due to the wound." Though that hardly meant the thing was nice.. it just happened to listen to Zek a little better then most, though most didn't have dragon training as well. "aside from a temer and the teeth and claws harmless enough." he laughed slightly, that was hardly harmless but it was safer then a dragon

[Pinkie]

Elvara looked to it before shaking her head and turning back around to her cooking rabbit "Well what ever it is it looks weird" Was all she said before she sat back down at the base of the large tree before pooking the cooking rabbit with a stick while resting her head on the bawled up fist of her hand.

Elvara had some different things on her mind. One though was something that was bothering her. The last time she noted Zek getting energy was way back when she fed the male some herbs. Elvara knew the extent of her herbs and how far the different combinations could take one in energy. She slightly woundered if Zek was pushing it....or if he was waiting for the town....

[Rosekitten]

He shrugged "weird or not it gets the job done, though I trust that thing better then I do a horse.. thats damn sure." Though not everyone could say that, you better have trained one to really trust it and even then it was hard to say it's mood unless it respected it's rider. "though to admit it... horses are easier to train.. "

It seemed the conversation died off and it became oddly quite, normally she had some complaint she'd voice by now. What was she even thinking of.. Not like he'd get it out of her if he asked anyway. So instead he kept to himself, though he was probably giving it away that something was wrong from the fact he hadn't said a word after the bit of talking from earlier.

Really he wasn't sure what he should be dong now, the idea was still going through his head that she said basically be damned with titles or blood. Though he doubted she'd go that far and he knew he needed some form of energy soon, but he wasn't sure how to go about it just yet. He figured he could hold off for a while so long as he avoided using any of his powers till the town, even then he could hold off.. though he'd be rather useless in a fight.

[Pinkie]

Elvara sighed a little as she sat there "Well....out with it" She said slightly before looking to him "I know somethings on your mind" She said looking back to the fire "Usualy by now my ear is falling off with your talking and rude comments' She said trying to get a rise out of him. It was weird not having the male make snarly comments about anything and everything.

[Rosekitten]

He blinked a few times looking at her with the sudden out burst telling him to say whatever he was thinking about. "eh... it's nothing that important, don't worry about it." He shrugged a little before turning away from her, sure he could tell her but what damn good would it do. "would you rather me just keep chattering about pointless things, if it'll make you feel better then by all means I can find something idiotic to talk about." He laughed weakly at the thought of it.

[Pinkie]

Elvara gave a little growl at that "Oh what did I take all of your intelligent talking with that last kiss?" She asked slightly with a tilt of her head. Elvara then stood and walked up behind Zek before kissing his cheek then lightly and playfully shoved him a little. "Awww whats the matter...drow caught your tongue?" She asked with a smile taking a little step back.

Elvara was trying to get a rise out of Zek and she did it the only way she knew how by teasing him. It seemed to be the only way that she would get a reaction so she would tease him till he was sick of it.

[Rosekitten]

He glared at Elvara when she asked if the kiss had stolen his intelligence. "No it did not... you act like I've never had a kiss before.." He rolled his eyes a little thinking about it, not that he was really proud of that fact but still. Though her next move she made caught him off guard, he was hardly expecting her to kiss him out of no where, let alone move from her food she had been fixing.

His ears went back a little as she spoke again. "hardly.. " he growled out at her, he knew what she was doing but he couldn't help but get annoyed a little at her teases. "just have a few things that are none of your concern on my mind is all." he said with a slight shrug. "Is it so bad that i can be silent for a few moments.. normally your complaining that I don't shut up and now your not happy that I am quiet."

He sighed a little, he swore that she was never happy, though to tell the truth why would she be really. Though he wished she'd stop with the teasing already, it wasn't helping.. at all

[Pinkie]

Elvara shrugged "Maybe I just like bugging you" She said to him with a little smile "Then again you dont like anything so why do I bother?" She said a little with her ears going back and a playfull smile on her face. Elvara then thought it was about time to bring up what she had been thinking about "Not only that but I think its your lack of energy thats causing you to be this way"

She said with a smile on her face "You know...." She said slightly teasing him more. "There is a way to fix that" She said with a little smile walking a little closer to him with a sway of her hips and half lidded eyes.
