(Eh, she's going to where Beth and Li are. I just want my character to see some action. Amber doesn't post as often as she should, so it's not doing me any good to have Ryouku stay with Rosso. No offence, Amber.)

(I can't post alot because I don't have Internet at home. The only time I get to use the computer is when I'm at school, after I finish my work. Any who...)
**************
She came upon one of the school buildings, stopping right outside the door. The scent of the unicorn had become so much stronger now. Why? That was when she heard a thump and a rustling noise, like feet against grass. Running around the edge of the building, she spotted a girl standing beneath a window.Was she the--?The wind blew toward her, sending the girl's scent into her nostrils; of course it was the unicorn.
She ran over to the girl swiftly, winding her way slowly between her ankles like a loving kitten.
(Sorry was busy. Just tell me if my girl's been killed.)
Beth:
Trama wracked her body. How dare he?! Fury swept through me every time I thought about it. ANd now Riley thought I had betrayed him...tears kept streaming down my eyes as I tried to find a way out of this now hellish nightmare. Everyone knew what I was...so naturally they were blaming me for the killings. How could Riley do this to me?! The first time I love someone, he breaks my heart. I shuttered remebering what had happened a couple of weeks ago, the memory still fresh...sending me into convulsions everytime...Why?! Why me?! I groaned...washing all my pain and hurt away as the warm shower beat down upon me. I heard a noise. I got dressed quickly. I knew that scent...
"Riley? What are you doing here?" I asked, surprised and hurt. I wanted to be back in his arms...but I knew he hated me...with a passion. I would never have that feeling again...and now I was about to face my death...
"This kind of love is not a product of reasonings and statics--it just comes-none knows whence-and can't explain itself. And doesn't need to." Mark Twain
name- Mana
age/grade- 17 10th grade

personality- reckless and competitive, a short temper and a sharp tounge, as a result of the way she grew up has a tendency to push people away. fiercly loyal to her friends
background- as a summoner she isn't noticeably different from humans (she can make the wings vanish) until she hits 25 and stops aging, raised by a human couple as far as she knows she's the last of her kind, her adoptive 'parents' were neglectful and cruel, they were part of a crime organization and made her kill for money. part of the reason she bonded with Astirah, they sent her to the town/school when they could no longer take her summoning spirits all the time. She just got transfered to the school. (the new kid)
abilities- can make pacts with summon spirits and use their powers. proof of the pact is in a ring like tattoo on her arm. currently only has a pact Astira (summon spirit of heart) and her control sucks.
likes- swimming, high places
dislikes- the cold, she is also claustrophopic and afraid of the dark.
extra- Astirah (Rah for short) is always following Mana around, normally small enough to ride, and sleep, on Mana's head. When they fight he's taller then her. looks like a fox with six tails
------------------
Mana shivered the light from the streetlamps actually made the surroundings seem darker. The people who had brought her here had left her at the town gates and given her a map of the place.
Hitching the duffle bag up higher on her shoulder she continued walking down the streets. Suddenly 'Rah hissed jumping off her head he flashed to full size. "Something is coming." His voice, almost always warm and gentle held a hard edge like it did when she was doing a "chore" for her parents.
The only building in sight was a bar with a really gaudy neon sign. She could hear crashing sounds nearby. Tensing she set her bag down an pulled out the twin swords. Drawing the blades she ran towards the bar with 'Rah beside her, they reached the building just in time to see a guy go flying through the window, quickly followed by what looked like a dragon.
She heard a yelp and whirled around to see 'Rah sitting on someone's chest with his fangs bared he snarled in the guys face. Apparently he'd try tried to sneaak up on her.
Biting back a grin Mana jumped into the fight, even though she had no idea what was happening.
*Whoa how did we flash forward to Riley back at Beth's.. I havn't even gotten my next post where he wakes up in yet! He has yet to get his mission.. and she wouldn't be blamed for the bar killings.*
All you need is 20 seconds of insane courage, and I promise you something great will come of it.
(Ignore Beth then. She is confused. XD Sorry to mess up the story.)

(It's not to late Sylver...actually we are no where near the middle of it...XD anywho I need Rory to post with Sean or Riley which ever so I can keep writing...XD)
I stopped myself and turned just in time to see a vampyre fly through the bar's wooden wall. A large dragon lumbered after the pale, stone-like vampire. A girl and a large fox-like animal with six tails had just joined the fight. Without warning Sean hit me in the stomach, making all air escape my lungs. I fell to the ground and gasped for air, not noticing that each time I gasped I said Riley's name. Sean growled and picked my up by my hair. I cried in pain as he lifted my higher in the air. Once I was a foot off the ground I transformed into my demon self.
"Enough! I've had enough!" I roared as I twisted out of Sean's grip. I landed on the ground and transformed into my larger self. I lunged at Sean...
(I can't post for Sean because in my last post he had flown off so you have to post for the fighting part until Sean flies off cause I can't so now I will just post for Riley..Yeah the Beth thing is fine it just confused me..)
Riley-
Riley rolled over and swung his arm out. HE was in the middle of a fight. He didn't know who- well what- he was fighting but he had to win. No he wasn't in a fight that had been last night. Was that last night? Or was it longer ago? He couldn't remember. He could feel the human blood of the three girls now inside him. Feel the power it gave him. He sat up abruptly. He was missing his shirt. He noted he still had his pants which was good. He stood up and walked to the window and peeked into the sunlight. Then he heard a voice.
"Riley." He knew that voice. His mother. He didn't turn around. He put his hand against the blinds and hung his head. He had been dreading this reunion and Sean, that dirty bastard, had made sure it was the first thing that happened to him. Great.
"Aren't you going to say anything to your mother?" She asked walking over to him. Technically she wasn't his mother but she was "mated" with his sire (also Sean's sire), otherwise known as his father. And humans thought their families could be disfunctional. She put her hand on his shoulder and turned him to face her. She was daintier but older, which meant stronger.
"Hello mother." He said taking his time to draw his eyes up to meet hers.
"That's better."
"How are you?"
"Better now that you are home. Your father is anxious to see you." She said drawing him into a hug. At first he was reluctant to touch her but then he wrapped her arms around her and remembered how much he missed his family. He lifted her up into the hug. Then the door opened breaking the moment. It was Sean.
"Always the favorite." He said leaning against the door frame.
"Don't be so jelouse all the time, green is not your color." He retorted smiling, "Where is my shirt?"
"The girl or dragon or whatever I was fighting last night swung, missed me, and ripped your shirt in two. I think I lost it somewhere over the lake."
"Great. You didn't..you didn't kill her did you?"
"No, I saved that for you." His mouth flickered at the corner.
"Well can I have another shirt?"
"What're you cold ya pansy?" He teased throwing a black long sleeved v-neck shirt at Riley.
"Thank you." He pulled the shirt on and followed Sean out into the main room of the mansion. There were many vampyres littering the room and he was sure there were more in other rooms. Some he recognized, others he didn't. His father was sitting in a chair set high up in a loft overlooking the main room. He was king of the vampyres so why not be as gaudy as possible? He walked up the stone marble stairs taking each step lightly, hating it because it was taking him closer. He knew his father was angry. When he reached the top step he paused before striding over to the chair and kneeling.
"Riley Patch," His father said standing up, "son. Welcome home." His father stood up and embraced him. This was odd, but he would take it over a beating. Which was what he had expected. Sean walked over to the father and son embracing. He put his hands on Riley's shoulder and shook him playfully.
"It's good to have you back."
"Your brother is right, Riley. We are all very happy to have you back."
"It's good to be back." Riley rubbed his palms together. He was anxious to fins out this mission Sean had told him about.
All you need is 20 seconds of insane courage, and I promise you something great will come of it.
I sat in my room, pain rolling off in waves, shock dispersing through my entire body. Apparently, there had been a huge fight not too long ago...and Riley was gone. Why he left, I had no idea...but I was sure it had something to do with me. I curled up in a circle on my bed and cried. Why did he leave? Why now? I sighed. At least I didn't have to worry about Matt anymore. His blood had tasted good, but I was not willing to sample anyone else's without just cause or reason. I picked up my magic book, it had been days since I had tried a spell. I began reading, concentrating on making the spells perfect.

"It's genoside."
"No, it's control. These other magical beasts are beginning to outnumber us, soon they will try to take over. We have to control the population. We have already wiped out a few small villages, but we need to start big with that school. You know much about the school, all of it's ins and outs. You will able to help us come time to attack."
Riley rubbed his temples for a minute in thought. Why not? He hated that school, hated everyone in it- some more than others. He glanced up at Sean who was leaning against the banister arms folded across his chest. He could tell everyone in the great room was listening.
"Alright." He said quietly, "when do we start?" His father grinned and Sean patted him on the back.
"You really are back Riley." He really was, wasn't he?
"We don't have to start soon, let's celebrate your homecoming."
All you need is 20 seconds of insane courage, and I promise you something great will come of it.
(Ok Rory I'll end the fight between the two right now...sorry. I'll need Tatu in the future so I'll bring her back, too.)
Tama~
I lunged at Sean, missing. Instead I fell to the ground and cringed. Sorry sis. My pain is your pain also. I heard Tatu's voice in my head. Stop fighting I'll be there in a second. I told her. I stood up and walked backwards towards the bar. Sean grabbed Riley and flew off. I ran into the bar and finished the last of the vampyres off with the help of the new arrivals.
"Thanks." I said as I ran over to Tatu's side. She moaned in pain as I applied pressure to her wound.
"Protectors." I commanded and in a flash the three others where next to me, applying pressure to Tatu's wound. Tatu opened her eyes and stared at the ceiling. The pain in my stomach, that was also her pain began to reside.
"W-what happend to R-Riley." She whispered weakly.
"He got away." I sighed and hugged her.
"Thank you all." I said, before running back towards the school.
"We will have new members joining us. Be ready." I directed to the Protectors that were there. I nodded for them and ran back towards the dorms.
