Hidden Angel [Social][Merrze]

items/pet:

The night is still covered in the crimson color of his fire flames. The young boy sat at a distance just right enough to feel the heat emitting from the makeshift pit. He had neatly placed each stone in a circular formation with twigs aggressively wedged between the stones. The crimson rose two shadows from nothing behind his small frame, and an even smaller body right next to him. The tree’s around them bent, and were brutally ripped apart as if horses were slammed into the trucks. Hung from the damages was dried pelts connected together making a large enough tent for the boy. His camp site was gloomy, and what one could say just for them.

Neph, wore a clean ordinary robe for travelling around his shoulders, alongside his ‘Axca Mask’ haven’t taken it off in who ever knows. It had been a long time since this angel of a boy stepped into society, or out the mountains just carelessly living about alone partially with his pet eagle-rabbit.

Never bothered after his sudden rejection from the dungeon, his loss. He remembered the scenes in said place, and knew he was nowhere near experienced enough to enter another one again. Neph’s priorities have just been repairing his mind, and merging the two entities into one sound body in which they resided in, his. Still three fought to figure out decisions, while one held most of the control but was pressured. These past few days, the hunt around during the nights seemed less, and less meaning he was nearing the end of his hiding, but was he ready to return. Yes? Neph minds weren't sure, but Aseo was ready. Sadly, he was the one with the upper authority in most situations so they all followed in the end.

Hidden in the forest of the jade mountains was Neph’s life for as long as he has been outside the dungeon, and much has probably happened. Which means it was time to bring the harbourer of light back to the light. Sad enough, he knew not what he wanted personally, so first off was Aseo’s Family once and for all, and Taavetti’s too. To overcome both personally all must be left in the past, Neph thought.

“ Why must I think so much. Just Why? “ Dropping a light sigh from behind the mask. “ Dexter, what should I do? “ Looking over the little rabbit, running his fingers along the tips of its large ears. Smiling at the peaceful, relaxing feeling of having one companion. “ You want some wolf meat tonight? Dex. “ Standing up, releasing the ear softly as he held it, looking around to see if he attracted any animals yet. This night felt so stil to him, but he had been there too long, or what felt like too long. Neph instincts were always close to right, but with three of them. How could he be too wrong?

“ I’ll be back. Protect the camp, buddy! “ Grabbing his wand from the ground beside him before stepping away into the pitch of the night, covering himself in shadows as the flames cascaded into nothing the further he got away. Just little chirps from Dexxter could be heard as the small rabbit tried to respond to its owner. For now, Neph was about twenty meters away from his base camp, and heading further into the mountain range to obtain food.

The night was always somewhat of a comfort, she was used to the dark. The shapes of the jade dragon mountains began to blend as the inhabitants of its' jungle hunted through the night. CAWWWWWWWWWWWW! chr chr chr chr chrrr The sound of a lone bird in the night followed by the chirping of crickets. It was peaceful, maybe that's why Merrze enjoyed it. The motions of the jungle were serene, and the animals that resided there. Her eyes would scan the horizon, there would definitely be something to grab as a quick midnight snack, but she felt like fishing might've been her best option.

Water splashed over the rocks, the fish of the stream moving through. Some would make small leaps over the granite, glistening in the pale moonlight. Splash! While one would leap, trying to follow the path of others Merrze would strike, grabbing the fish mid-leap!

"Gotcha!" She would sit down, the cooling stream washing over her bruised feet. While the dirt washed away, rolling away into the stream. It was nice to relax, she was only this close to Kou because she was on her way back from a political meeting. It was nice to enjoy the little moments on her trips. Ery was nearby in the sky but walk, especially on a night like this was always welcomed. Despite relaxing though her senses would stay sharp.

Snap! Her eyes would dart around, with a fish half hanging in her mouth while she hunted. She knew there was something, most likely large by the sounds of it. She doubted some predator was gonna go after her, but better safe than sorry after all. From sitting to now standing the fanalis would choke down the fish before getting in a crouched position.

"If you can hear and understand me then please come out slowly." she commanded. With an assertive and intense voice, she was also making herself known. If there was the chance that this was an animal she could just scare it away, the trouble was if things were more than they seemed.

She'd continue "I mean no harm, just enjoy the waters and a meal, but these jungles are dangerous especially at night I don't plan on stepping away till I know who, or what you are." It was a gamble she doubted there was much than a person, if there was a threat she could always call Ery to their location but she doubted there was any need for that.

Walking the darkness of the jungle for a few minutes he stumbled across the lake streams. Fish flopped, and danced across the surface down, hidden by the moonlight's reflection. Neph looked into the waters to see his own reflections noticing the other two standing behind him, Aseo and Taavetti. “ Ugh.. “ Came out his mouth slowly. Shaking his head softly, disappearing back into the tree lining heading further down, but out the way incase of bandits, poachers, and the etc that loved to take the night routes.

He wasn’t entirely keeping his presence hidden, he just knew his way around his campsite area so he knew the nooks, and crannies to hide when others may spot him. What was soothing about his walk while hunting was the water's light buzzing of refreshing waters. However, Neph ears lost that sound once the words from a woman hit him. Barely audible at first, then after a few more snaps of twigs beneath his feet he caught her voice clearer.

"I mean no harm, just enjoy the waters and a meal, but these jungles are dangerous especially at night I don't plan on stepping away till I know who, or what you are."

“Fuck a woman. Why a woman of all things… “ He said to himself softly. She was very authoritative the way she spoke, and he knew he wasn’t one to speak back in these situations. How could he avoid this? Neph, was hesitated and his steps would show as he snapped another large twig giving off his location. “ FUCK! “ Would bark from his mouth, letting his anger steep out from his actions.

“ Neph, I think you should just leave this area quickly. If she heard you from this distance. I advise you move now, and into the air! “ Aseo would say.

“ Neph, I advise you stop being a bitch, and just confront the situation head on. It's not like the woman going to be dangerous enough to kill us. “ Taavetti would chime in.

Collectively the three had a quick pause, before Neph took his own actions. Feeling the breeze of the night's air, he knew flight was his only course if he wanted to make it seem like he disappeared. For now, his three thoughts were leave, stay and talk, or say nothing.

“ sorry, bye. “ Came from the young man's mouth, more in a little boyish tone. Neph’s little body jumped from the ground, and higher into the tree’s getting himself easily, and safely on to a branch up above, and hopefully out of the range of sight of Merrze if she had spotted him in his momentary pause. “ i have no intention of talking with you lady, i'll be on my way “ he added to echo off.

It seemed her new friend didn't want to make themselves known. Tsk! She'd need to force a reveal it seemed. She would prepare to step, and maybe he was aware of this because his first words were a goodbye. "Great, I didn't really wanna play a game of chase, but that's where it seems this is going" she'd think to herself.

Her feet would buckle against the ground, the earth crumbling in a shattering KrckBOOOOOOOOOOOOOM! as the Lioness would Flash Step. She could only hear the direction of his voice at first. Yet as he spoke his uninterest she would get a clear look at him for one moment, as he was beginning to take off. Flying was always a handy way to get away, any hunter knew that. Any expert also knew that take-off was the best time for a pouncing bird to strike. Once again the earth would crack, giving under Merrze's feet as she would use her momentum and strength to kick in the air leaping after the mystery figure.

"WHOOOOOWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET! would slice through the air, a sharp whistle, and command that came from Merrze's mouth. The burst of sound following along with Merrze as she jumped into the air. With her command, the sky would rumble shaking above the angel. The sky would begin to brew into a mighty storm, the wind slamming towards them as rain pelted down with the force of a rockfall.


There in the sky, the beast would come down, Ery the sky whale had descended his partners call. With now a storm in his way, and a pouncing fanalis behind him she hoped it would encourage. Amidst the downpour, she would scream out "You're not gonna get away young man, I can have the very large beast increase the downpour if you want. Or I can snatch you right now and slam you down into the ground." She would close in, her expression wide arms outstretched ready to grab as he had seconds to reply. "Or we can settle down and have a talk?"

Her last shouting reply would come in only a moment before. Tick tock, tick tock, Afterall, 6 wings meant more of a snack.

Blinding light would soon pop in her vision, twinkling in the raging storm. It seemed the angelic fellow was up for some conversation as sass ensued. She couldn't blame him for his feelings, she'd certainly be pissed if the same happened to her. That's just how life was sometimes, taking a moment to breathe she'd walking close to him, her eyes shut as she approached so as not to hurt her sensitive vision. She'd exhale a deep breath, snapping to signal to Ery to halt the storm, so she'd could now speak "That's a lot better, I'm sorry to interrupt I was here getting food too and I had to be cautious."

She'd pull out of her wet bag a flag with the Meridian Lion isignia on it incase he was aware. She had to take a minor leap if she wanted to earn his trust, and if he was a threat she could always off his head with an ease. Eyes still closed she'd rattle out a response. "I know magicians need to play it safe but please kill the light, I was on my home to my country after delegation in here in Kou so I was worried somewhat might've trailed me."

Mustering through her bag she'd look for some of the food she'd been catching. While she scoured she'd say "I have some extra fish, should be enough to provide a decent meal for you and whatever your pet it is."

Her hands would bump into the moist fish, she'd pull out 6 large tuna she had fished up earlier. The fatty fish would certainly provide a decent meal, and a peace offering so they could get to know one another better. With the fish extended she'd say one last thing. "My name is Merrze, I'm the leader of a place called Meridia, Its a pleasure to meet you and I hope you like tuna."
