Rhyldrin had gotten word that his actions had caused the near by camp to be a target of Brishen. As much as he'd love to shrug off this fact and leave them to their won he knew damn well the camp wasn't prepared for a full assault and Brishen would certainly bring most of his force with him. He sighed a little listening to the General here barking orders and trying to prepare this camp at the last minute. This was almost pointless most of them would die. They weren't trained enough let alone numbers this was a small camp.

"I'll lead" Rhyldrin said as he walked past the general with two blades already drawn. The man started to protest but this was the mercenary that had been helping them in the past he trusted Rhyldrin, even if this was a lost cause it was a fight to the end. "The lead is yours then.. " He bowed his head a little steeping back. Though about the same time a sudden cry was heard and the light elves showed themselves in the progress of their attack.

"Tsk here already damn it" He hissed before looking at the general he was given the ok that he could call out a order if needed. "Archers fire now, ignore waiting for reload commands it's at will" He yelled before spinning both blades and waiting till the last second before making his move. He had his timing perfect as he met two of the light elf soldiers head on each getting a blade across their necks before they could figure out what happened.

Sure the other dark elf soldiers were putting up the best fight they could but it was easy to tell what one was the biggest threat aside from the general himself. He was keeping his eyes peeled for any sign of Judith or Brishen.. he figured he'd see that mage as well. This would be fun if he had to deal with the mage and Judith both firing at him. He needed to focus for now though as he slid his blades across another poor soul's neck that got in his way.

"damn it theres no end is there" Was there really this many of them back at the camp last time he was there? For fucks sake there were at least 5 to one numbers here if not more then that. Really he had one true target he was seeking out, the red haired commander.. he was going to get his revenge for binding him like that and using Judith as a cheap shot.

Brishen's men fell as easily as the Dark Elves did, they seemed to have equal power. Kane seemed a bit panicked by the site of the fallen bodies, the smell of blood was overwhelming and it made him feel uneasy. Though Brishen didn't seem to feel any remorse. He really didn't care if his men fell, he only wanted one thing. He wanted that damn Dark Elf that had escaped. Brishen barked at Kane to see if anyone had survived to at least seem as if he scared. He told Uldric to find Judith when he noticed that she was no longer with them. Judith had stayed behind in the commotion avoiding harming any Dark Elves unless it became absolutely necessary. She had a feeling that one of the other men had suggested bringing her along. It was probably Uldric trying to stop her from avoiding him. It was unusual for Brishen to ask her to come.

It didn't take long for Brishen to find Rhyldrin, really it seemed that something wanted them to cross path's. "Did you miss me?" he spat the joke and laughed. Brishen held his blade in his hand tightly, his face was twisted with amusement and his body quivered with excitement. He wanted to kill Rhyldrin more than anything. Brishen had learned from his previous mistake, he should have just killed the damn Dark Elf to begin with rather than bringing him back to the camp to play with. All he wanted now was to hear him choke on his own blood.

For a moment he watched Rhyldrin wondering when he should draw his blade and begin attacking him. "This is going to fun isn't it?" he asked, a smile still on his face. Brishen drew his blade from his side and held it with confidence. There was no way he could lose in his mind, he would win this battle and would bring back the Dark Elf's head as a trophy.

[Rosekitten]

Rhyldrin was just pulling one of his blades from a light elf corpse as Brishen spoke. He grinned a bit looking towards the light elf. "Dreadfully, It kept me up at night even knowing you still drew breath" He laughed a bit knowing he didn't mean a word of it. But he'd play along with this little trade off of words.. for now.

"This will be your end" He hissed towards Brishen before charging forward both blades ready to strike. This quickly turned back into a similar match like had happened before as the sound of steel upon steel rang out. Most of the weaker fighters were already fallen. There was a handful that remained standing though the general of the dark elves from this camp wasn't one of them. Both sides seemed ready to drop though a few were still fighting while the others seemed to stay away from the other side to try and save their own lives for the time being.

Trading blows back and forth for a while Rhyldrin had a few tricks up his sleeve this time around, he wasn't going to let Brishen pull the same tactics as before. He knew there wasn't any of his top men near by this time around and he didn't see Judith so he had a fair enough battle with the light elf this time. And he wasn't letting him walk away.

Brishen brought his sword down upon Rhyldrin's blades as a sudden steel scraping sound was heard from the force of the metals connecting. "Give up dark elf, your head will make a nice trophy for my wall" Brishen growled at him still keeping the wild smile on his face as the fight went on. Though both sides seemed as evenly matched as before, and by this time Rhyldrin's shoulder was in far better condition.. so he was hardly fighting at a handicap.

He laughed forcing Brishen to step back breaking the weapon lock they had going for a few moments. "you'll have to land a blow first, and your lap dogs are in no condition to help you" He found this funny really, there were a few light elves near but they weren't about to up into this battle they didn't have the strength and most of them were hurt in some form or another.

Though at the same time Rhyldrin was a bit worried in the back of his mind, Judith was no where to be seen and other was the other guy that was with Brishen from before. He had seen the mage around but this whole thing seemed to through his off his game. Not that it wouldn't most there was blood covering the ground bodies upon one another and wounded all over the place if not the dying. why did that bother him they were both missing.. He didn't have time to think of that now as he returned his focus to the fight keeping Brishen on his toes as he went back to striking out at the commanding light elf.

[gremlin]

( I don't know what else to type to make this longer, I feel terrible. D: I'm sorry! )

Judith lifted her bow and brought the arrow back. Her stomach felt knotted and her wide eyes watched the two men struggling. Bastard, she thought if only she could say it aloud. Why was she so scared of her own brother? She lowered her bow and thought for a moment. Brishen shouldn't have thought of bringing her along all it was going to do is cause problems for him. Judith breathed out heavily, it felt as if her anger had consumed her. She lifted her bow, she narrowed her eyes. No one would know who had struck him.

Though as she went to let go she felt two strong hands reach out and grab her. Judith screamed startled by the sudden touch that hurt. Her arrow missed Brishen and nearly hit Rhyldrin though it avoided him as well. Brishen looked over his shoulder at the sudden commotion, he became distracted. Judith struggled with the man who had grabbed her, her ears dropped as she saw it was Uldric. "What are you doing?" he barked at her, his eyes were filled with anger. She let out a cry as she felt his grip become tighter. Judith slammed her bow against his chest and he brought his free hand to her other hand. "You're not getting away, not after what I just saw you attempt." he hissed.

Judith squirmed trying to release herself from his grip, she managed to pull one hand from his own and swung her first against his face. "Let go of me!" she hissed. Uldric flinched from the hit he brought his now free hand to grab her by her hair but Judith brought her mouth to his hand and bit down on it hard. Judith didn't let go even when she tasted blood though when Uldric reached for his blade she let go and dodged it as he swung it at her.

[Rosekitten]

(aw your fine silly)

He was mere inches from landing a hit on Brishen when he noticed the arrow that was fired and stepped back a bit to avoid it, Brishen had noticed this as well. Though the next sight seemed to trigger something in his mind. Something Judith had told him when she had run away from the camp she was in before.. this guy. Brishen seemed to grin a bit before he turned around and ignored what Uldric was doing to his sister. "seems you have allies dark elf" He laughed a little even his own sister nearly killed him.

Rhyldrin wasn't thrilled that this bastard and the other one with him knew this, why had she tried to do something so reckless it wasn't that damn long ago he made her promise him she wouldn't. "Tsk... " He hissed at Brishen though it wasn't going to matter he knew Judith was on her own for the time being. He needed to end this fight he knew she didn't fair well in hand to hand sure she could fight but it was different against someone who was doing nothing but close range combat.

"Leave her out of this" He growled at Brishen before striking at him and slamming all of his force into his strike as he brought both blades down upon Brishen's forcing him to take a few steps back in the process to keep his balance. "Oh, whats this? What are you getting worked up over you weren't trying this hard before" Brishen laughed at the sudden change in fighting style though he Hardly knew this was going to be his last fight if he kept trying to pick at Rhyldrin.

"Don't flatter yourself, I'm correcting a mistake I should have cleared years ago" He said towards Brishen before drawing his blades back and striking again, he seemed a bit more focused into the fight this time around as he did manage to connect one of the blades with Brishen while the other blocked the strike towards him. This was still to be a long drawn out battle but he wasn't going to lose, if he did then Judith.. no he couldn't lose it wasn't a option.

[gremlin]

"I knew there was something wrong with you," Uldric hissed as he waved his blade from side to side. "I knew that you hated your brother but I didn't know that you would ever consider striking him to protect that thing." his eyes wandered over Judith trying to figure out what she could have possibly been thinking. "I should kill you but I have a better idea," he spat then smiled, it was an evil smile and it made Judith feel uneasy. "I think that I'll play with you for a little bit then kill you, traitor." Judith's heart pounded in her chest when he called her a traitor. She really was wasn't she? She had not planned to kill Brishen she had only wanted to harm him to allow Rhyldrin to gain the upper hand and for all of these years she had thought about how she would end Uldric's life as well. She smiled at him, she didn't know why she was smiling. "Why are you smiling?" Uldric looked at her, he was a bit surprised by how she was behaving. "Do you think that this is funny?" he hissed then approached Judith. "I think it's hilarious!" she replied.

Judith's ears dropped as he swung his blade at her once again, she breathed in heavily afraid of what could happen to her. Uldric wouldn't be kind to her, he never had planned to be kind to her. She wrinkled her nose in disgust, her hand wandered to her thigh and she released her dagger from it's holster. "I'm tired of you." she watched him for a moment wondering if she even had time to speak again. She bit her tongue knowing that taunting Uldric would only anger him more. "Fuck you," she spat. She twirled the dagger in her hand wondering where to strike him first. What would cause him the most pain?

Uldric readied himself to attempt to strike Judith again. "Bitch, I'm going to enjoy this." he laughed then began to circle around her. Judith watched him carefully as he swung his sword at her she ducked and dragged her dagger against his stomach. She wasn't good at close up combat but she would try her best. Judith wouldn't allow Uldric to be an annoyance anymore. She flinched when she felt something warm hit her face, Uldric pressed his free hand against his stomach. Judith leaned upwards and slammed her elbow into his chin hard.

Judith pushed her entire body against him in an attempt to knock him down, though he grabbed her arm and brought her to the ground with him. They struggled, Judith held his wrist trying to keep his blade from reaching her skin. Her dagger slipped from her hand as she brought it to block his blade from meeting her neck. Judith cringed in pain as his blade dug into her hand. Fuck, she thought and breathed out heavily. He laughed at her though it was a weak one, perhaps the wound she had given him was getting to him. She became desperate, her hand was in pain and her head was pounding. Judith dug her fingers into his wrist, pushing them against his skin. She didn't stop even when she broke his skin, she pushed his wrist towards his head trying to get his blade away from her.

Suddenly she couldn't breath, it felt as if he was crushing her neck in his now occupied hand. Judith tried to scream, though she couldn't. She couldn't reach her dagger with her wounded hand though even if she could she hardly though she could hold it properly. Her eyes grew wide as she felt him push her to the ground, he was now on top of her. Her hand still kept his blade at bay though she couldn't do that for much longer, she had to think of something to do before she fainted. She brought her wounded hand to his wound and her fingers dove inside of him. Uldric released her from his grip as he cried out in pain. He let go of his blade and cringed in pain, it was overwhelming. "What the hell?" he spat, she breathed in desperately filling her lungs.

Judith brought the hand that had held his wrist and took hold of his blade quickly. Uldric opened his mouth to speak, probably to call her a bitch though the words didn't come out before she slammed his blade against his face. He screamed and held his face as he fell beside her. Judith breathed out heavily, she stood quickly her legs were trembling. She gripped his blade with both hands and watched him with wide eyes. She felt light headed and she was almost sick. "You god damn b-" Judith thrusted the blade into his neck pinning him to the ground. He spat blood and gurgled, his eyes became lifeless. She stood for a moment in almost disbelief of what she had accomplished. There was blood everywhere.

[Rosekitten]

Brishen wasn't paying any attention as to what the struggle between his sister and Uldric, he was too damn caught up in his own world. Both sides having a few minor cuts this fight was still in the air it seemed. "Why don't you just let me kill you, then you can join your friend over there in damnation" Rhyldrin stopped paying attention to Judith though he wanted to make sure she was alright he needed to focus losing it now wouldn't solve anything. "Tsk you first" He hissed towards Brishen before thrusting forward again one blade digging deep into Brishen's shoulder seeing as he had misjudged the strike.

He growled at Rhyldrin before losing his mind a little from the pain in his shoulder from the strike. He slammed the sword repeatedly against Rhyldrin's blades each time it seemed to cut it closer and closer as to if a strike was going to land or not. This was more then tiring, the fight alone was taking it out of both fights but now they were at wits ends both sides knowing that one or another was not walking away form this.

A few strikes did land from Brishen, Rhyldrin was quickly reminded that this man was fare from sane.. None of the wounds were deep enough for him to care about though, he'd deal with it. "Tsk that's the best you have? Damn I wanted a challenge" He mocked Brishen, why the hell he was edging the light elf on was beyond anyone, it seemed like a foolish move. He had his reasons as Brishen lashed out wildly trying to strike Rhyldrin down. Though the taunt did reward him with a sudden blow to his right side and a sudden crack was heard with the impact.

Rhyldrin seemed to wince for a mere second before forcing himself away from the blade and stepping along side of it to try and aim for Brishen's neck, though at first the strike didn't seem to hit. Seconds later a small trail of blood did leak from the scratch he had managed. Brishen laughed finding this still fun for some unknown reason being so close to death and they both had a wound that was going to get the better of them.

This dance of death seemed to continue on even long after Judith had killed Uldric. Both fighters seemed oblivious to anything around them, though they couldn't afford to watch anything else they were determined to kill one another it was like two animals fighting by this point with wild strikes and taunts back and forth trying to edge the other side on. The remaining troops from both sides were watching this struggle back and forth aside from these two fighting had stopped there wasn't anyone left to fight.. none that were already worn out or wounded anyway.

"Why don't you die already!" Brishen yelled at him before landing another strike this one slamming down on his left shoulder though he caught it before it did too much damage as he forced the blade up breathing heavily. "Y.. you first, I'll be damned if I die here" He hissed out between a breath before he finished pushing away Brishen's blade fully. Both fighters were bleeding heavily and seemed out of breath but they kept on lashing at one another, at this rate they'd end up killing one another without a final blow.

Brishen did after a while give the opening Rhyldrin was waiting for this whole time. He charged forward both blades ready and aimed for fatal spots. Though on the same note Brishen wasn't going to let Rhyldrin have this strike just like that.

Rhyldrin's blades both stuck into the spots they were meant for, one into the heart while the other was in the gut but it was positioned in a way it for sure hit sometime vital. Though bot fighters stood there for a moment it seemed as if time stopped, in the same strike Brishen had managed to force his sword through Rhyldrin's middle, though the blade seemed off and at the moment both sides seemed to be motionless.

Brishen suddenly released the grip on his sword as blood trickled out of his mouth and he fell to the ground his eyes more while they they usually were. Rhyldrin fell to his knees before coughing violently and holding the wound near the blade. "Heh... bastard..." He forced out before coughing again as blood came up this time. He knew that last strike was reckless but .. it finished it. Thats what he had wanted right? The blade was all the way through he couldn't tell if it hit anything vital hell he was in pain all over anyway so it's not like it was much worse with the blade there.

Either way he didn't seem to move from the spot as he stayed on the ground, he was half waiting for a light elf to come along and finish him, that'd be a good glory claim to slay the one who killed the commander. He continued breathing heavily trying to get his mind settled so he could think of what to do, aside from this wound being very bad and that he was probably going to die.. the odds weren't in his favor that this blade missed everything vital.

[gremlin]

Judith breathed heavily, it took some time before she calmed herself. Though she wasn't as calm as she wanted to be. Her mind was a mess and she was almost afraid to go to Rhyldrin, she had watched the struggle still dazed from her own struggle with Uldric. She jumped a little when Rhyldrin seemed almost motionless. Was he dead? She hesitated to bring herself beside her, though she eventually pushed herself to do so.

She brought herself to her knees beside him, her eyes wandered over his body. Judith became alarmed by the sight of his wound. "You fool..." she mumbled and brought her good hand to his face, Judith gently ran her thumb over his cheek and smiled weakly. "Though I can't really call you one when I am one myself." she laughed quietly then ran her hand down to Rhyldrin's hand. She took it in her own and squeezed it. "What am I going to do?" You're a mess... I can't leave you like this. I refuse to!" her voice cracked, she was a mess herself.

"That wound is pretty deep," Judith jumped and looked up at a familiar face. Kane smiled at her then looked back at Rhyldrin. "It isn't something that I can't tend to, though we can't do that here." he went a little quiet, he was still nervous when speaking to a woman. "Let's see if we can find somewhere better to tend to his wounds." Judith looked down at Rhyldrin she reluctantly let go of his hand. "Where will we bring him?" she asked Kane, her ears dropped as she wondered how long Rhyldrin had before he bled out. Kane's eyes wandered over there were still some tents that stood firmly. "We can bring him to a tent, we have no need to worry about the living Dark Elves or Light Elves." he brought himself to the other side of Rhyldrin and leaned down, he took hold of Rhyldrin and forced him to stand. "With the way the war is it will do them some good to see kindness." Judith stood and held the other side of Rhyldrin. They knew that he wasn't in good enough condition to be up and walking though how else would they move him?

They brought Rhyldrin to a tent where they were awkwardly greeted by a Dark Elf. They had ignored the stares from the others, everyone seemed a bit confused by two Light Elves helping a Dark Elf when in the first place they had been attacking each other. Though they wouldn't interfere, why would they? They were helping Rhyldrin not taking him off to torture him. Perhaps they had left them knowing that Kane held much more power than any of them combined.

"Lay him down here," he told Judith softly. They had managed to find a medical tent, they placed Rhyldrin on a bed though it wasn't the best. He looked up at the Dark Elf who had been watching them almost curiously. "Could you please bring me your medical supplies? I need to tend to him before he bleeds further." the Dark Elf nodded and gathered some supplies for Kane. He brought him creams to clean the wound, stitches and gauges. Kane didn't speak as he worked on Rhyldrin, he didn't need to be distracted by anything. Rhyldrin was quite a lucky man, nothing vital had been hit. Judith was silent as she watched, she wasn't good at tending wounds and had always wanted to learn. Though she squirmed a little in her boots, there was so much blood and she had had her fill of it already today.

Kane began to close the wound after he had cleaned it well. When he finished closing it he asked Judith to lift Rhyldrin so that he could bandage the wound properly. Kane let out a heavy sigh, hopefully the wound would bleed less and less then it would stop. He didn't know what he would do if it continued. Kane looked up at the Dark Elf and smiled weakly. "I'm sorry for barging in here and taking your medical supplies." Kane looked over at Judith and took her wounded hand in his own. "Let me see this... it isn't bad." then he began to clean her wound.

[Rosekitten]

He didn't seem to respond to Judith, really it was all he could do to keep himself awake. All he wanted to do was close his eyes and he knew damn well that wasn't going to happen he didn't trust waking back up if he did. She was right he was a fool he took that strike knowing this was going to happen, but he did it anyway. He could allow Brishen to live not after he knew about Judith. If it were anyone else he might give them the chance to change.. but her brother wasn't the type to do that.

If he was with it he would have complained at the two of them helping him, but in truth he was pretty out of it. It was probably boarder line of being too late as far as saving him went. But at the same time this action stumped both sides as they watched. The dark elves and light elves both weren't sure what the hell to do, now they stood before the enemy with no leader on both sides and their own either being helped or helped by the other. For now the confusion was a good thing it would prevent further blood shed here.

The dark elf in the tent flinched a little when he saw Judith and Kent, let alone he wasn't sure how to take them carrying Rhyldrin or the fact that he looked like he was almost dead as it was. Either way he tried to assist Kent in what he was asking watching all of this unfold, it was a true sight that was certain. Though he quickly flinched again hearing Kent say sorry for just walking in "er.. ah no it's ok" He said staying back a little he wasn't sure why they were helping Rhyldrin they had to know this very dark elf destroyed countless camps by himself let alone killed half of the troops here.

Though he couldn't say anything else as someone else walked into the tent, this was a familiar dark elf at least to Judith. Though this time he was in robes with chain mail. "Seems that messenger was a bit late wasn't he" He spoke before excusing the two dark elves that were with them telling them to tend to either said and to obey the order they were given.

He shook his head a little noticing Rhyldrin before speaking. "Didn't I tel you ages ago a girl was going to get you killed? Damn I thought i was joking" He sighed a little he knew Rhyldrin wasn't with it enough to reply the woulds alone looked pretty bad. Though he quickly returned his attention tot he two light elves, one looked like a fellow mage yet he was helping Judith and it seemed he was the one who tended to Rhyldrin. He bowed towards them both before straightening again. "I never introduced myself the last time we met. The names Madaes, third general of the Queen's own and commanding officer of the magical department."

his actions before you would have thought he was a simple worker or something or a book keeper but it seemed Rhyldrin had rather high ranked friends, they must have sent a messenger out to get back up after the numbers were reported in this face off. Though either way this one seemed to share the view that Kent and Judith had seeing as he had ordered his own to tend to both sides as needed. Maybe this was the beginning of the end.. at least tot he war.

[gremlin]

Kane had finished tending to Judith's wound when more Dark Elves entered the tent. He wrapped her wound then allowed her to take her hand away from him finally. Judith's ears dropped, at first she felt uneasy and didn't expect to see a familiar face. She smiled at Madaes when she recognized him. "Neimi's husband?" she asked though she knew the answer would be yes. Kane looked a little confused, he wanted to ask Judith how she knew this man and how she also knew his wife. Though he kept to himself and occupied himself by looking over Rhyldrin quickly for any wounds he may have missed. Judith blushed furiously when she heard his comment, her ears remained down. She knew that Rhyldrin was rather reckless though maybe them meeting again made him even more so. She had been rather reckless herself, most of this was certainly her fault.

Judith looked over at Kane, she saw his confused expression as she spoke to the Dark Elf. "I don't really have to explain though I don't want you to hurt yourself trying it figure out how I know him." she laughed weakly. "You can trust him, don't worry. If needed then I will explain it to you later." she added then turned back to face Madaes. Judith wanted to ask him a few questions. She was concerned about her own safety being in enemy territory and she was concerned about Kane. "Are we going to be alright?" she asked then tilted her head to the side. She felt nervous as she asked him.

[Rosekitten]

He found it amusing when Judith blushed from his comment he didn't mean it that way, really it was a on going joke but Rhyldrin was too out of it still to hit him for it. Though he could tell that the other light elf wasn't doing any harm, let alone he seemed curious on how Judith knew him. That'd be a hell of a story. "I said my name it's not Neimi's husband" he sighed a little he was just joking about it really bothering her. "She'd be here as well but she's helped the midwife soo... I'll leave it at she ended up being busy."

He listened to Judith's questions before laughing afterwards he could tell she was nervous hell they should be this was the dark elf claimed areas after all. "You don't have to fret over it, just having Rhyldrin here no one would bother you, they'd rather not get on his bad side." There was more to that then he was telling her but it wasn't his place to say it either. "But no you and your friend there are safe enough, the men outside are as well. So long as no one starts trying to pick a fight I think the battle here is done.

He smiled at her before speaking once more "I did say I was the 3rd General to the Queens own, whatever I say is what goes as far as the dark elves here are concerned. I'll also be passing this little tale along to the Queen herself. She'll be amused to say the least." He also knew the Queen was looking for reasons to try and stop this war, he didn't know about the light elves king but at least one side was willing. "just get some rest you look a little beat up yourself, and tell your friend to stop fretting so much over Rhyldrin" He said before crossing his arms and looking at Kent. "He'll live, I've never seen someone whos that damn lucky before." He almost seemed annoyed by it but it was true, Rhyldrin had the devil's luck it seemed.

It would probably be a while if not a few days before Rhyldrin recovered enough to really respond to anything, the fight alone drained his energy. The wounds weren't helping and the larger one was still bleeding a little as his body was trying to heal. It'd probably do him some good to sit still for a while anyway and that was only happening if he was out of it. So Kent probably lucked out on that or else he'd be getting on Rhyldrin's last nerve with telling him he should rest.

[gremlin]

Judith had convinced Madaes to allow her to stay at the camp, no matter how dangerous it would be. Though she didn't feel that scared despite being surrounded by her so called enemy. Madaes had control over them and she was sure that he would not allow any of the Dark Elves to harm her as long as he was around. Kane had not originally planned to stay either, but he was concerned about Judith and decided to stay in the end. While he remained at the camp he tended to the wounded, both Dark Elves and Light Elves. The other Light Elves left after they had their wounds tended to, they were still a little bit nervous up by the sudden change. The enemy was taken care of them when they had been so intent on kill them mere moments ago.

Judith and Kane had been given their own tent to sleep in, they kept to themselves and planned to leave once Judith saw Rhyldrin once more. She was waiting for him to heal and was told to leave the poor Dark Elf alone until he did. Though that didn't stop her from sneaking into his tent at night, she spoke to him a little trying to assure him that everything was going to be alright. She felt bold when she kissed him, even if it wasn't on the lips every time. She was in Dark Elf territory kissing a man who should be her enemy so freely. It gave her a little thrill. Though when she was caught the third night that she went to see him she didn't return. She resisted seeing him telling herself that he didn't need to be bothered by her, though she really wanted to desperately see him.

Kane was packing his things, he felt satisfied knowing that Rhyldrin was alright now. Though he wasn't looking forward to the Light Elf camp again. He had gone back in the middle of the night telling the others what had happened, though he didn't tell them why he would be gone for so long. Kane had said that he had important business to attend to and disappeared back to the Dark Elf camp. He looked up at Judith who was still asleep in her own bed. Lazy, he thought then let out a heavy sigh. Kane resisted waking her knowing that she had spent many restless nights worrying about Rhyldrin. She was terrible at hiding how she felt about Rhyldrin, though Kane wouldn't bother her about it. Did it really matter if she was falling for him? Who said that a Light Elf and Dark Elf couldn't be together? Kane wouldn't object to being with a Dark Elf, hell anything could happen.

He was growing tired of waiting for her to wake up though as he went to wake her she stirred from her sleep. Judith jumped a little and looked up at the man, Kane felt rather awkward. "I wasn't watching you sleep," he blurted out trying to save himself from being scolded for something he was not doing. His face became red and he watched Judith as she lifted herself from the bed. "I-I was about to w-wake you and-" he stuttered, he was flustered. "You woke up and now y-you're looking at me as if I'm crazy and-" he stopped speaking as she began to laugh. "Don't worry about it, I know that your not a creep." he stepped away from the bed as she stood. Kane breathed out heavily, he felt relieved that she wasn't going to accuse him of being a creep. Judith stretched her arms above her head and let out a soft yawn. "You're already packed?" she looked over at the things piled on top of Kane's bed. "Jeez... I'll start now I suppose." she began to gather her things.

Over the next few days Rhyldrin didn't move at all really. Hell most of the time he stayed asleep. Madaes said that was a good thing or else he'd end up tearing the stitching. Though he got a odd look from Kane when he said such a thing before explaining he had done it before and that's why he knew that Rhyldrin would do it a second time. he wasn't one to sit still not if he still had breath or the energy.

Even with Judith visiting he didn't really respond to her, it was only the last night tat she visited that he even was conscious enough to listen to her. Tough after three days he had recovered enough energy to know he was hella stiff and restless beyond belief. Sitting up he was quickly reminded he still had a few larger wound that needed to be watched.

"fuck" he hissed out under his breath holding his middle with the sudden pain. "if he wasn't already dead I'd kill him" He was talking about Brishen, and he meant it though it was odd for him to be muttering to himself like this. Then again he didn't even know how many days he had been out, any normal person would still be out. Madaes was standing near the entrance of the tend hearing Rhyldrin cussing each time he moved, he had to laugh a little he had seen him like this before it was rather funny for some reason.

"Shut up" He said bluntly towards Madaes as he stood next to him now though he was still favoring his middle a bit, it'd take the longest to heal for sure. Madaes smirked a bit before speaking "I think they are leaving tonight, you know.. she worried over you the whole time"

Rhyldrin questioned him a little "time? how long was I out?" after he was told this was day three Rhyldrin sighed heavily "geese.. that explains why I feel like a board.. damn it" Madaes laughed gain before going on "i know your not one to thank anyone but you should thank them both, the young man with her is the one who made sure you didn't bleed out. Besides it'd be good to let the girl know that your moving" He smiled at Rhyldrin though he was hardly amused by it.

After a moment he frowned before speaking "ok fine I'll go say something to them.. geese you can put on a guilt trip can't you" Even with Madaes not saying a word he felt like he had to at least say something before they left. Though with Madaes here and what little event that seemed to happen he was curious, he wanted to question the mage later to see what he was going to pass to the Queen, or what he had already passed on.

He started walking towards the direction where Judith and Kent ha been staying for the past three days, though Madaes gave one of his troops the order to baby sit Rhyldrin to make sure he didn't over do it. Needless to say this wasn't putting Rhyldrin in a good mood Really the guard following him was just to make sure he didn't collapse.

Judith had just finished packing her belongings as Rhyldrin arrived. "I'm going to go for a walk," she told Kane. He didn't speak he nodded at her. Kane knew that she was lying, she was probably going off to see Rhyldrin once more before they left the Dark Elf camp. Why couldn't she just be honest? He didn't give a damn what she did with her life or wanted to do. He was concerned for her though, a bit weary of her behaviour. Judith would get in trouble if she was caught being too friendly with the Dark Elf. Judith did appear to be rather reckless considering what she had done three days ago. It was none of his business though.

She left the tent though she didn't get too far before she spotted Rhyldrin. Why was he up? He could open his wound and harm himself. Then again she wasn't surprised that he was up and she noticed that another Dark Elf was following him around. Probably to insure that he didn't push himself. She approached him, her stomach felt knotted and at first she didn't speak. "You're awake," she said softly then smiled warmly at him. "I'm glad to see you up and about but shouldn't you be resting?" she really was worried about it. "You're so reckless!" she laughed then brought herself closer to him. Judith wanted to kiss him, she wanted him to embrace her though she hesitated. Then again the other Elves in the camp were talking about her and Rhyldrin. It didn't take much to see what was going on, the way they looked at each other gave it away enough.

Her ear's dropped and she watched him for a moment wondering what he was thinking. "You scared me," she hissed at him. Judith almost spilled her emotions in front of him but she fought back the urge to cry. She wasn't going to sob or become hysterical, she wanted to cry thinking about how she almost lost him. She breathed out heavily in an attempt to calm herself. "I don't know what I would do if I lost you." she mumbled softly though she knew he would hear what she said. This was more than lust that she felt and it frightened her.

[Rosekitten]

He sighed a little listening to her asking if he should be resting sure she was right so was Madaes but he wasn't going to. "Last I know walking about meant i was awake yes, as far as resting I already feel like I did a weeks worth.." Though he could tell she wasn't fully convinced by his statement. This was further backed when she called him reckless, she was right though he was.

"I'm reckless hrm? Who tried to shoot their sibling?" She might have thought he didn't catch that but he knew where that arrow had been aimed before it was fired. "I don't think you have the right to call me reckless" he smirked a little though she'd probably get him back for that later.

He watched her as she spoke again talking about that he scared her and what would she have done if she lost him. what had gotten into her all of a sudden he knew she wasn't normally like this, really he wasn't sure how to treat it. What was he suppose to do to get her to calm down before she broke down on him, she looked like she was on the edge of crying but holding it back.

He sighed a little before speaking softly to her "you worry too much. After he had finished speaking he moved a little and pulled her close to him, holding her there. "you should know better then anyone I'm too damn stubborn to die." Normally he'd feel a bit awkward holding someone close like this but with her.. it felt right. Aside form the fact holding her like this was hurting at least three of the wounds that were still healing.

"it's not fair of you to say such things.. what the hell were you thinking anyway you could have been killed, all the damn times I saved you or got you out of harms way and you almost threw it away" He laughed slightly still keeping her close. "what am I going to do with you?"

[gremlin]

Judith fell silent when he mentioned Brishen. Her brother was dead and she didn't mourn his death even a little bit. She wondered how her parents would react to the news of his death. "I am reckless, I know that." she looked up at him and smiled weakly. "I suppose that I don't considering how I have gotten you in so much trouble." her eyes wandered over to the Dark Elf that had escorted Rhyldrin. It was difficult to speak openly to him with someone else around. "I only worry because I care," she hissed and gave him a look. "Don't tell me not to worry when I know damn well that you have worried about me too!"

"Rhyldrin," she squeaked when he pulled her close to him. The sudden motion had surprised him and her ears dropped. Her face felt hot and she knew that she was blushing. Judith avoided placing her hands anywhere near his wounds, she placed them on his waist gently. "I wasn't planning on getting caught," she said softly. Judith laughed nervously. "I wanted to help you like you had helped me all of those times, I didn't expect to be caught in the act." she breathed out a heavy sigh. "And you can do anything to me." she purred. Judith looked up at him her eyes met his and she didn't look away.
