Autumn's Beginning, Autumn's Breeze [2]

Richard

I crept forward, staying in the shadows and nocking an arrow to my bow as I listened to their conversation.

"...Corrie for short. And you three are?"

"I'm Caspan, this is Ramere and that's Bella."

I returned the arrow to my quiver - if they were open to meeting people, they wouldn't likely pose any kind of threat.

"Corrie, Caspan, Ramere and Bella." I muttered. They turned, one of them tensed to release a spell, the others appearing more relaxed. I held up my hands, smiling, "I'm not here to cause trouble, I'm just another traveller. My name's Richard."

Storm-

Storm slowly walked towards teh town skipping his house. He saw some of the others standing around a tree. He walked over smiling the others following.

"Let me guess, your playing hide and seek again." He smiled shaking his head, he enjoyed playing with the younger ones but sometimes it got old. He didn't figure the other ones his age always enjoyed them either.


Cara-

Cara looked at the group around the tree. She almost chuckled, she hadn't played hide and seek in ages. Now wasn't the time to start either. She rubbed Fire's head and looked at Storm.

"Thanks for showing me here." She said to Storm then started towards the town her eyes looking for any others that were hiding too just to see if she could spot them.

Ramere-

I glanced from one of the newcomers to the other, my body tense. I had a spell in mind - not powerful or flashy - but adequate.

"What are you two doing here?" i asked, growling slightly. Just then Carlie came running from the trees and came to stand at my side, clutching my clothes (still green) and staring around.

I touched my hand to her forehead softly. Don't be afraid.

She looked up at me, her lower lip quivering slightly. I put my arm around her shoulders and drew her closer to me. Though she could be a pest at times, I still looked after her with my life.

***Storm's their cousin, I can't post cause my other girl walked past them, hopefully to run into Christian (Wink Wink *CoughAliceCough* tehehehehe. Anyway. ya.******

*I'm still confused!!!!! *cowers*

***Christian is hiding from playing with some people, the I think it is Kayla that is with Storm. That help?***

I'm bringing us all to one place. If you have a complaint/don't want your character brought to where everyone else is, speak now or forever hold your peace.

Alzz>> You have a character not in the story at the moment, no? If so, bring her into the woods if you want.

Caspan-

I glanced around into the trees as Ramere questioned the two newcomers. I spotted Storm off in the distance with a few others. A girl with a wolf at her side, a girl with blond hair and gray eyes, and others.

I was about to go and meet them when another figure stepped from the trees, staring at us in confusion and surprise. His blue eyes examining each of us in turn as his black cape billowed out behind him.

Quite a few newcomers, i thought to myself. We haven't had this many come at once for a while now.


*There, now everyone is in the same place, more or less.*

Corrie-

There were many new people in the clearing now. I decided now would be a good time to leave. I didnt want to get too caught up in people's lives. I stood without a work and backed away from the group. She spun on her heel and was just about to make a break for it when someone said, "Oye where are you going?"

Richard

I remained a little apart from the group, not having been around this many people at one time for a while. He looked over all of them, putting names to faces and committing them to memory.

The man called Ramere still appeared a bit on edge, growling, "What are you two doing here?"

"Well," I began, "I pretty much stumbled on this place, I had no idea it was here. I'm not sure about her though."

I turned to look for Corrie, to see her just about to run back into the woods, "Oi, where are you going?"

Bella--

I watched the others speak, too nerved up to say anything. It had taken me months (possibly even years, I tend to lose track of time), to speak to Ramere. And now I was standing here with a group of strangers .... it was completely unnerving!!

Sighing, I moved to lean against a nearby tree. I pulled my hood up to cover my face, hoping to blend away from the others.

Kayla

I soon found myself in the midst of a good dozen people, avaians, vampires, mages, humans, people who usually stayed on their own. At least as far as I knew, I couldn't remember much from my child hood.

Aurelia

I realized as I watched the whole parade of "people" that I hadn't fed in a while. In so long in fact that I found myself drawn into the circle. Before I came into view I bit my arm and sated my hunger. I wanted friends, I was going to have them. I wasn't going to scare them.

(No idea what to do for Christian, took me 20 minutes to get that XD)

Cara-

Cara looked at everyone in the group, she felt Fire push against her leg and she looked down at him.

Behind that stone wall, there is someone watching everyone. Fire said,

Alright, go see what his intentions are.

You aren't coming. He laughed,

Course I'm coming. She said slipping away from the group and towards the town. She doubled back so that seh was behind the guy.

"See something interesting?" She asked as Fire stood next to her ready for anything.

Christian

I smiled, "a couple things, like the fact that my cousin still hasn't found me."

"You're related to them?"

"Yup, most are my cousins, one's my sister."

I flew up over the wall and got a good look at her and the winged wolf. "Thats a new one."

Cara-

Cara blinked a few times surprised, "Y-you have wings?" She asked looking at him. "H-how?" Fire looked at the guy and growled, ,

Humans shouldn't have wings. He growled in her head.

Hush She growled back, You shouldn't have had your wings out just to startle him either. Put them away. Fire did grumbling the whole time.

Christian

I couldn't help but smile at her, "I'm an Avain, so are my parents and brother and sister."

"How?"

"Mages turned my father, my father turned my mother so we were born this way."

She still looked a little unnerved.
