*Hidden Nature* A Shapeshifting RP

[NickyKnack]

Shaylee glanced to Xatia then looked back to her drink as she savored the unusual fruit flavors. She had remembered that they had found the warlock pretty dehydrated in the void, and since he was temporarily her responsibility, she wanted to be certain he would be ready for whatever came next.
~~~
Aurora nodded and looked back to him again. "It is a good suggestion, that would give them both what they need for what they are, the only thing would be learning about a realm I do not know about myself." She said then dipped her head. "I am frightened to think of my girl alone in a strange place."
~~~
Anna straightened a little and looked to Axis to let her know what they were planning and what they needed from the hyenas. She looked back to Zypher again when she was done. " Is that all?" She asked to be sure.

Xatia watched Xavier drink the juice, before looking to Shaylee curiously. She'd taken his voice away, to only given it back to him. She wondered what he'd said to evoke such a response from Shaylee. She brought her focus back upon Xavier. She then stated her observations. "It must be nice to be treated far better then you've supposedly treated others."

Xavier said nothing at first. He just looked to his almost empty glass. But then with a weary sigh, he admitted, "I'm willing to make atonement for my wrongs, but first I must free my son." He said with conviction.
~~~
Maxton quietly thought of a solution. When he realized how simple it was. "I can teach you our language and our ways, when we are finished with our agenda. If you'd like me to, that is. If not me, then perhaps another could be offered in my stead, since I'm not well versed in the art of teaching. " He replied honestly.
~~~
"No, you covered it all. " Zypher admitted happily.

Axis smiled proudly at Anna and Zypher, before nodding. He pulled out his phone to spread the orders to the pack.

Axis smiled proudly at Anna and Zypher, before nodding. He pulled out his phone to spread the orders to the pack.

"Your son, this dragon Storm. Tell us about him" Shaylee asked, taking a sip of her drink then flicking a glance to Xatia and speaking privately to her "I saw that look, but you notice, now he is talking to us and in a far kinder manner. I am curious but his mind has blocks I do not want to break down right now."
~~~
Aurora nodded after thinking on that a minute. "I think that would be best. Both girls were meant to rule, it is their nature." She said then looked to Aeval and smiled again "You should certainly be there for that, learn the language of your people and perhaps find a way to find them. Being fey means you can learn more magic than just your dragon element."
~~~
Anna smiled and settled back, drinking her coffee until Jason arrived. She looked over to Aurora and wondered about the fey having such an interest in the deep sea dragon.

Arbus turned and left the cavern and transported back to the barn battle. He was easily bored, but felt obligated to continue to help Owla and Erica. He sent a pulse spell that sent their enemies to the ground, as he trotted over. He hunched over and growled deeply at Owla's attackers.
~~~
Carrow tried to object, but wasn't fast enough, when Morgana put the cobwebs on her shredded arm. She bit back a cry of pain and fought through the worst of it. She gritted her teeth and stood up to fight again.

Erica yelled at Arbus,"I want to keep the fight!"and made he spell break.
~
Morgana was throw to the ground,and she had a huge gash of her arm,she screamed and cried in pain.
~
Heather was fighting Arbus

Suddenly,morganas eyes lit up,"I HAVE HAD ENOGHT OF THIS!YOU WILL DIE ERICA!OWLA!AND ARBUS!I HATE ALL OF YOU!"she screamed,"kera solar co so ma!"she yelled sending a huge ball of light and Arbus,Erica,and owla were gone,she panted falling to the ground.

( You can't kill my character. That's power playing and it's aginst the rules. :/ You can banish him, but you can't just kill him without permission. Which I don't want him dead.)

Anna smiled and settled back, drinking her coffee until Jason arrived. She looked over to Aurora and wondered about the fey having such an interest in the deep sea dragon.

Xatia looked to Shaylee and smiled softly, "Just as I saw yours. But your methods are working to open him up. You have always had more patience than me." She spoke privately to her, before looking back to Xavier as he started speaking.

Xavier scrunched his face deep in thought and from barely contained emotions. "I had saved a infant dragon from a devastating blizzard. It had froze the two fire dragons solid. But they had huddled together to protect their infant son, using the last of the heat from their chilling bodies to keep him alive. But despite my efforts, I could not SparkLife back into their lifeless bodies. So honoring their sacrifice, I took the dragon infant and put him aginst my skin to warm him. Once I was sure he was going to make it, I was determined to raise him up. But that night when I was feeding him, something that I never expected to happen, did. He transform into an infant child. That's when I voted to love and care for him as if he was my own son. I name him Storm after the freak storm that had set our paths to cross that fateful night. But soon proved appropriate, when his powers turned to that of ice, not fire like his parents. Since then, he has been my faithful companion. We have made a great team, for Storm's intelligence is unparalleled and my powers were almost limitless. So we lived as nomads, never staying any place longer than a week or so. That's until one day, Markus approached us and made us an offer. A job, of jobs, with unlimited resources. Upon careful thought about the very interesting problem he wanted solved, I agreed to his terms." He looked to Sheylee and sighed softly, before continuing. "Markus wanted the original spell that created the shifters and the ability to harness the power to create more. With my son being a dragon shifter, I was motivated to help. For in our travels, we had yet to meet another dragon. I didn't want Storm to be alone after I was gone, nor would any other parent." He explained quietly. He then took another sip of juice. When he set the glass down again, he shook his head. "I solved the puzzle and recreated the spell from Amar's blood. But the betrayal and deceit occurred on both parts. He had no intention of ever letting us go, let alone making a dragon for my son. He enslaved him and imprisoned me." Xavier fell quiet as he spun the glass within his grasp.
~~~
Aeval smiled sheepishly, "King Racine granted me all knowledge of written and spoken languages. I was illiterate in all but Greek when I met him. But I don't know any spells and especially not fey customs. I would eagerly embraced that knowledge." Aeval said excitedly.

Maxton glanced to Aeval curiously, tilting his head, as he spoke softly in the fey tounge. "Language with out knowledge of culture, is not true enlightenment. It is an empty knowledge. Do you not agree?"

Aeval frowned in thought and the nodded, then said back in fey, "But it is a start on a long road to find it."

Maxton grinned widely at her answer. He looked to Aurora, not wanting to be rude and translated their words for her.
~~~
Navar had got up to get the pot of coffee and reached over the couch to fill both their mugs. "I figured you needed a refill.

Zypher smiled in appreciation. "You're and mind reader, you should set up a booth on the sidewalk." He teased.

When Navar came back out with a refreshed mug himself, he sat down beside Anna. "Oh? Trying to get rid of me already? Should I be offended? " He asked with humor. He then leaned back in the corner of the couch and studied them. "Enough with preliminaries, I want to hear about this alpha fight. " He said with interest.

Shaylee listened to the story then tilted her head and glanced to the other room. "You ended up with what you asked for. You have met two dragons and learned new spells, though not as you thought you would." She said with a frown then shhok her head. "Dragons have always hid from men, ever since men started hunting them."
~~~
Auro6Aurora smiled at them both. "This is a perfect opportunity to learn for you and Elle." She said gently. "They will have more spells than I know as well."
~~~
Anna thanked him for the coffee refil then sighed and settled back, starting to tell him what had happened when they had that fight, or at least how it had been from her perspective.

Castle had slept for the equivalent of an earth night. From that moment on, he stared into the dark room quietly thinking. He shifted his position on his stomach, to face towards Ender's wings. His wings were so white and beautiful. Unlike his own. They were more golden eagle in color. He reached out to gently touch a broke blood feather. It had bled badly, but was now clotting.

Ender flinched as he came awake and turned to Castiel suspiciously. "What are you doing? " He asked mentally.

Castiel held up his bloodied fingers for Ender's inspection. "You're hurt. How did you hurt you wing? " He inquired mentally.

Ender looked away as he thought of the ferocity his brother had threw him aginst the wall. "A family dispute." He replied honestly.

"Is it true? Are you in mating heat? What is it like?" Castiel asked quietly.

Ender bared his teeth in frustration and raw emotion. He cursed his circumstances and nodded slightly in affirmation. He sighed as he moved more on his other side to face Castiel fully. He rested his head on the pillow in thought of how best to explain mating heat from his prospective. " It's like it's said to be. It's a frenzy that is progressing beyond my control. It's as if you become powerless to fight it's draw. You shouldn't have to fight it, but with us, we must. All you want is to be together, either to kiss or in eachothers arms. When she offered herself completely, I know I had to flee while I was still strong enough to say no. But my fleeing only made it worse. It's now become maddening, it's complete agony and utter torment. We only twirled once and I initiated it. Why would the fates create such a thing when we can't be together?" He replied mentally.

Castiel was surprised by all Ender had just revealed. "I don't have those answers, I wish I did my friend. But if killing yourself was your only option, then the fates are cruel indeed." He replied honestly.

~~~
Anna thanked him for the coffee refil then sighed and settled back, starting to tell him what had happened when they had that fight, or at least how it had been from her perspective.

Xavier swallowed hard at the emotion that still affected him. But had to acknowledge the truth of her statement. "Yes, we may not know the how's or whys. We must keep the faith that it will all work out for the best. Thank you for that revelation." He replied softly.

Xatia was quietly thinking about his history. " And if he'd been pure dragon, would you have really released him when he was grown? Not keep him as a pet, like most wizards do? I'm sorry, but I don't see your motive as completely selfless." She spoke plainly.

Xavier was offended at her statements. "You were not there, you don't get to judge my motives, just my actions." He replied.
~~~
Aeval smiled happily at the idea. "I look forward to it." She said excitedly.

Maxton chuckled softly at Aurora's words. " Our friendship could only benefit both. There is not too many tarian spells I know. I may find, I'm equally schooled in such instances. " He replied softly with a smile.
~~~
Navar listened like a child at story time. When she'd finished, he took care of another formality, he submitted to his new alphas. He tilted his head and bared his throat to Anna. "Please accept me into your pack, Anna and Zypher.

Zypher looked at the display never having been on the receiving side of it before.

 

[StarrNico]

"Easy Xatia." Shaylee cautioned gently through a private bond to her then looked back to Xavier. "Selfless or selfish at the start, the way you speak of the child says that you love him now. Love is one of the most powerful forces on this world."
~~~
Aurora smiled and dipped her head at that truth. "We can teach eachother and see what comes of it all as the future unfolds." She said gently.
~~~
Anna smiled at him then moved to take in his scent before moving back so Zypher could do the same. She was learning how to do this without being awkward about it. This was her first pack after all, despite being raised to it.

Xatia calmly looked away from Xavier. She didn't didn't like villains playing the Martyr. She watched Kallen quietly, while Shaylee address Xavier.

Xavier tugged at his shirt collar and glared other at Xatia, before glancing to Shaylee again. "I do love him. It doesn't matter what any of you think. I know my heart. Black and shriveled as you may think it to be." He said with bitterness.
~~~
Maxton grinned and held his glass up in a toast. " To the mutual benefits of our future together, wherever the fates may take us." He said with conviction.

Aeval held her's up in mimic of his actions. Not knowing you were to touch each glass.
~~~
Zypher leaned over and did as Anna had done. It was so strange to him. But Navar was family already without the formalities. Once that was done, he asked, "So why are you not with Amar? "

Navar straightened and took a long sip of coffee as he sorted out his words. He then told the absolute truth of why he wanted to come back.
