Despite her size, her movements were fluid as she maneuvered through the trees and brush on the forest. She took a whiff of the air to keep on track with Darius and the creature accompanying him. Skar was pissed at herself for assuming Darius would listen or that something else wouldn't try to take him. Now he was gone and… Skar didn't even know what was going on. Based on the tracks, someone or something was with him. Skar figured Darius was likely alive which wasn't too bad, but she would never trust leaving him alone again. [Color=green][i]He can't hide… can't fight… can't stay in one place![/i][/color] Skar picked up the smell of fresh blood, which caused her brows to furrow. If she could have moved faster, she would have upon picking up the scent. She thought the worst until she stopped in her tracks at the sight of a boar that seemed to have been hunted by some sort of predator. The boar was also surrounded by the pink fruit Darius had been eating just moments ago. It was an odd discovery.a She got ready to bellow his name again. Skar was more sure that he was alive now. [Color=lightblue]"Skar!"[/color] Darius shouted as he clumsily moved through the brush. Darius turned to the thick vegetation behind him to speak through it to Myra. [Color=lightblue]"Trust me. I can talk to her. Come on, we'll be fine."[/color] Darius tried to assure Myra who had tried to save him from Skar's wrath. He even forced a smile. [Color=lightblue]"It's my turn to do something."[/color] Darius turned back to Skar who hadn't moved from where the dead boar lied. Her fierce eyes were on Darius and whatever was beginning to come through the brush with him. [Color=green]"Should kill you here, human! Skar told you to stay hidden! To wait! You ca-"[/color] Skar was interrupted. [Color=lightblue]"NO! Skar what the fuck are you even saying?! I DID hide and I DID wait! You were the one that didn't come back until now! Look!"[/color] The seemingly angered man pointed down at what was left of the boar and fruit on the ground. [Color=lightblue]"I needed to eat, so my new friend Myra and I went to get food. We were going to try to get something else before heading back to my spot…"[/color] Darius sighed. [Color=lightblue][I]Keep it up. Just a little more.[/i][/color] Darius could see Skar had been initially taken aback by his retort and was beginning to hold a softer expression as she listened to him. [Color=lightblue]"I have to eat. If I don't eat, I get weak. If I get weak, I'm useless. Plus, I found us a new friend."[/color] Darius stated this calmly. Skar let out a low grunt, as she had no argument against his. There was still one thing that bothered her. She sniffed the air and her hard expression returned as she identified Myra for what she was. [Color=green]"The demon can't live… Demons ally with the Dark Lord. She is a spy or will be one. Step aside human. We must stay hidden from demons, from dark elves, from orcs."[/color] Skar swiftly drew her axes. [Color=lightblue]"Whoa! No! You're not going to just kill Myra! She's not a demon and she's not like that!"[/color] Darius wasn't acting this time around. However, Skar was set on dispatching Myra here and now. Skar snarled. [Color=green]"Step aside![/color] Skar went to backhand him to toss him aside and potentially knock him out so he wouldn't be able to interfere with her attempt to slay Myra [Color=lightblue]"Stop![/color] Darius put his hands up in defense from Skar's attack. A torrent of water suddenly fired from Darius' hands. The blast of water was powerful enough to push her off her feet and go crashing into a tree. [Color=lightblue]"What the fuck?! I… I shot you with water!"[/color] Darius stared at his hands as Skar picked herself up from the ground. She appeared to be just as surprised but regained her composure quickly. Skar's grip tightened around her axe handles as she faced Darius. [Color=green]"Move."[/color] Skar's demand caused Darius to break away from his state of awe. [Color=lightblue][i]Focus, Darius.[/i][/color] He stood his ground and readied his hands at his side. [Color=lightblue]"Still thirsty huh?"[/color] Darius wore a smirk on the surface, but was still concerned with Myra. Skar took off to his right to get around him. Darius aimed his hands to attack again. [Color=lightblue]"Nope!"[/color] Darius said as Skar instinctively juked to Darius' left while ducking from where his hands aimed. She planned to close the gap and take him out before dealing with the demon. She was surprised to see Darius use his powers, but not surprised with the element he inherited. Darius hadn't even shot out water. [Color=green][i]No handle on power.[/i][/color] The orc wasn't worried in the slightest. Her eyes met his, and to her surprise, he had remained confident and his hands were still aimed at her. A blast of water knocked Skar off balance and sent her tumbling across the grass. [Color=lightblue]"I can do this with you alllll day Skar. Just trust me. I'll be responsible for her."[/color] Skar stood up and moved her damp hair from her face. She was uncomfortably soaked now. [Color=green]"And if demon kills you?"[/color] Skar got up again [Color=lightblue]"She would have already. She found me sleeping and you haven't been around for hours. If she wanted to kill me, I'd look like the boar right here!"[/color] Darius readied his hands again. He had a better handle than he thought he'd have. [Color=lightblue]"You claimed me right? Well, I claim her. She's mine. Okay?"[/color] Darius kept his eyes on Skar's. With a grunt she placed her axes on her back. [Color=green]"I will accept."[/color] Skar wouldn't look at Darius. She could have gotten him out of the way if she tried again, but Darius seemed like he would be a problem she managed to harm the demon. Skar needed Darius, so she could give in this time. [Color=lightblue]"Really?"[/color] Darius let his guard down. [Color=lightblue]"Thanks Skar… Looks like you get to kick it with us Myra. Well that's if you want to."[/color] Darius wasn't sure how much of what he said Myra would grasp, but he was just happy to say it. --- [Center][Img]https://fontmeme.com/permalink/190909/a5c38c2717b4a85142ab69dbdfa0a23d.png[/img][/center] [Color=silver][b]Time:[/b][/color] Dawn [Color=silver][b]Location:[/b][/color] Aklenroth's War Room [Color=silver][b]Interaction with:[/b][/color] [@Alivefalling] - Aklenroth, [@Tae] - Azriel [hr] Umber silently floated through the entry into Aklenroth's War Room. His focus was on the Lich King. [color=silver]"Apologies for the wait my lord. My age must be slowing me down. Azriel and I are ready to be deployed to any location you see fit for your Wraiths."[/color] Umber did not bow and instead crossed both pairs of his arms over his chest and floated with his feet just inches above the floor. [Color=silver]"I hear that we have humans in our world again… It is true and you are deeply displeased with… The elves. Azriel's favorite prey. He rage still hungers for their spilled blood, even now at this moment Lord Aklenroth."[/color] Umber was already picking up the emotions and thoughts flowing in the room whilst he used his words to stir them up and make them surface.
