She chuckled and nodded. "That sounds like a good one. My favorite ones are probably scaring Bailyn. I'd creep up on her and boom! I jump out and scare her! Oooh! You should see her face. It's priceless." She squawked, nudging Bailyn who was blushing madly.
Bailyn:
"Hey, don't judge me! I thought you were a cougar or something! And also, you always scare me when I'm in the garden, so I never expect it!!!" She mumbled, her ears a bright red, which just made Nova laugh even harder.
Nova:
She sighed as she collected herself. "Ahhh, I'm too good! I've got some more really good pranks that even Loki doesn't stand a chance against." She said, arching her hawk head. Bailyn rolled her eyes. "You're so humble, Nova." She said, sarcastically.
She smiled at the shapeshifter. "I love flying and taking care of animals and nature." She giggled, braiding Cloudfeather's mane as he dozed soundly beside her.
Nova:
"Hey! I love pranks too!!" She said, flicking her lion's tail back and forth with glee. "What's your favorite prank you like to pull?" She asked..
"Well, it's nice to meet all of you. " said Tala. There was such a wide range of creatures here, and all of them were ones she had been longing to meet. "You guys are all from Asgard, right?"
She was outside when she heard these questions. She had been carefully eating some of the grasses, to make sure the land wasn't poisoned. She shifted back to human form and walked in to help answer the questions. She had observed all other Asgardians in the shadows, and knew much about them, but she would let them answer for themselves. "We could ask you the same quesstion," she said with a smile, "but I'll be happy to answer them. I am a centaur, as you have plainly seen, and my name is Melany," she said before backing out of the cave to look at the stars.
She thought for a moment, and right before they were to cook the deer, she took it and held it in the air, examining it. "Alright. Then I'll cut it into a portion for you guys to eat raw, and for all of them to eat cooked," she said, going to the outside of the cave to do so. But before she left, she muttered, "I wonder why I'm preparing food I won't even eat!" She scowled as she grabbed her sharp rock she had left outside the mouth of the cave and began sawing through the raw meat. Once she was done, there were two halves of the deer. One for the were-wolves, and one for all the other Asgardians. She brought back and tossed it to the Tala who caught it easily, and set the other half on the stick to roast.
She pushed them aside. "You guys are hopeless sometimes," she laughed, grabbing one of the sticks, some dry straw she had found, and started to move the stick quickly. She had placed it in the center of the straw and began to twirl with amazing amount of pressure. Miraculously, the straw lit and the fire was started, glowing warmly. She sighed at the warmth she hadn't felt in so long, and looked over at her supposedly sleeping brother with a sense of joy she hadn't felt in a long time.
"Yeah, but, right now, I think we have bigger things to worry about-"
Nova:
"-Like starting a fire to cook this meat! I'm starving!!" she said, interrupting. She had moved the sticks and logs into a big pile, waiting for flames.
Bailyn:
"And how are we going to set it aflame? No one has that power." she said, placing her hands on her hips.
Nova:
"Well.....what about the sun?! That could set it on fire!"
Cloudbreaker:
-Smacks Nova upside the head with his wing-. "The sun can't set anything on fire, silly! Besides, the sun's already setting." he pointing toward the orangey-light coming from outside the cave.
Nova:
Glares at Cloud and frowns. "Then, how do we cook it!?" she squawked, getting frustrated.
She shook her head. "I can say it because this land is not the same as Asgard. It is much darker and holds more secrets waiting to be explored," she said.
She stood up. "I'll tell you why," she said to Cloudbreaker, "because there are creatures like us. Anything is possible in this world. Anything," she said as if she had just seen the most terrible thing in the world. "That's what makes it so wonderful and terribly frightening," she finsihed, her bearings back.
He loped back into the cave, his eyes bulging looking as if he's seen a ghost. He went over to the fire pit and placed the sticks ,that he was carrying in his wings, in the pit. Then, he jerked his head away and went back to the side of the cave and exhaled deeply.
Bailyn:
"Cloud? You alright?" she asked, going over to him and running her fingers though his dark gray mane.
Cloudbreaker:
He lifted his head to look up. "I-I've never seen anything like it...While I was collecting sticks, there was these.... winged horses. They looked a lot like me, in some ways. But, I-I thought that I was the one and only Son of Pegasus...how can there be more? And if there is more, why are they here?!" he huffed, his breathing increasing. He stamped his hooves and lashed his tail, confused and angry.
She entered the cave in time to hear Tala's question and nodded. "yes. At least they are. I don't eat any meat of any kind," she said as she helped Nova set up a fire inside the cave using a pile of sticks they had collected earlier and using the rocks.
Zavier:
He popped one eye open and nearly blew his cover as he saw his sister with the body of the horse and then change to the sister he knew. He quickly shut his eye as to not be caught, but listened to their conversation.
As Melany came back to the cave, she saw that she was carrying a dead, bloody deer. Her heart pounded and her knees were like jelly. Yes, she ate meat, but never deer, and she's neverseen a dead one. She was a faerie; it was her responsibility to care for the animals and the plants of Asgard gardens. She ripped her eyes away the deer and looked down, feeling ashamed.
Cloudbreaker:
He stood up straighter "I'll go get the firewood." he said and cantered out of the cave and into the woods.
Nova:
"I'll help look for rocks." she said, going over to Melany.
Bailyn:
She pushed the dead deer out of her mind. "And I'll....." there wasn't much she could do. In fairy form she was almost useless, in this situation, and in human form, she wasn't much help either. "I'll do whatever is needed...." she said, shrugging
She looked up and gasped. There were tons of zooming dark figures up above in the shape of.... horses? But they were flying. She stared up in awe again. Apparently there were pegasi here like from Asgard. But they were much more beautiful and wild. She estimated about 15 steeds in total and continued on walking in centaur form. Then she heard a flutter of a heart beat. A dying heart beat. She looked around quickly. Then there it was. A deer on the ground, slowly dying. She didn't know what had caused it, but she picked it up from it's back legs and examined it. She would find a stream and a sharp rock. Soon she found a stream, grabbed a sharp rock from it, and in human form, guiltily stripped the skin from the deer. She made the deer ready to be eaten, but it would need to be baked first. So she shifted back into centaur form and made her way back to the cave. She stood in the mouth and shifted back to human. "Alright. Here's the meat. Now we need a fire," she said as they all looked her way hungrily at the deer. "We all need to pitch in for you all to have food tonight. Everyone start collecting firewood, please. I'll find rocks for the wall of the fire pit and a stick to roast it on," she said.
She spun around at the voice of someone new and she gasped softly as the raven turned into a human. She approached him, with Nova at her side, eyeing him suspiciously. She smiled in greeting, knowing this stranger was Asgardian, "Of course you can. Were you transported here as well?" she asked, through her clattering teeth. "Oh! Where are my manners?! I'm Bailyn. And this is Nova." she said, pointing to the fierce griffin.
He was flying above a cave filled with more Asgardians in raven form. He looked down and cocked his head. He landed in the mouth of the cave and shape shifted back into human. When all of them looked at him with surprise, he grinned and said, "May I join you fellow Asgardians tonight?"
Melany:
She didn't say anything to the new arrival. She just sat there, her younger brother curled up in her arms.
She sighed. She didn't like the way she was acting towards these asgardians, but she had too. She needed an excuse to stay away. If she stayed, there was no telling how much danger her brother could get in. A silent tear slipped down her face, but she wiped it away quickly and followed the others. It hadn't been long when they had reached a cave. She could fit inside in centaur form, but she shifted back to her human state, cradling Zavier in her arms. She went to the very back of the cave and sat there, huddled with only her brother. If he woke up to all these asgardians, he would not be able to handle it. He had never seen anything like them. He didn't even know his sister was a centaur. She took off her small leather jacket and wrapped her brother in it, keeping him close. She didn't fall asleep at all, but rather stayed awake to the sound of his gentle breathing. She kissed his forehead gently and whispered, "Goodnight," and settled into a comfortable position where she could watch all the other strangers in the cave with them.
She raised an eyebrow. "Oh? Then why are all of you still standing here?" she hissed. She glared menacingly at Wynter. "You'd be surprised what I can do, horse," she growled. She could understand anything related to the common horse, for she was a centaur. Zavier had fallen asleep on her back. Melany back away as too not bump into anyone as her body began to shift again. Now she was in her true form, with her hair falling to waist length and wild. She cradled Zavier in her arms as she loomed over everyone. She stroked his hair. "I have no doubt that you can find shelter, for I do know of what you are," she said to Ulric. "It is what is here that I doubt," she said. No one every listened to her. Probably because she was an eighteen year old girl with no power what soever other than scaring people when she changed into a centaur.
Wynter saw him sorta blushing and "smiled" at Cloud, she whuffed, drinking in his scent and exchanging breaths.
Valen looked at Melany, "I saw Henry Hudson adrift, set afloat with some of his crew and son on what you now call Hudson bay. What makes you think I can't find a shelter to keep us all warm?," she spread out her hands, "I've been alive for a long time and in human years im young. Don't call us Horse-dung as it does have its properties and does insult Wynter" She stroked her mare's fine dappled coat.
Wynter whuffed at Valen and striked a powerfully muscled leg and a sharp hoof to the ground after she backed away from Cloud. She pranced around powerfully around Melany and blew a sharp breath at her. Not dangerous, but a little threatening.
She flicked her eyes towards the others a few feet away, and stomped right up to them, Zavier still in arms. "Look, I don't who you guys are or what we're doing here, but you guys are all idiots," (Pardon her language) she hissed. "We are out in the open and none of us know where we are or how we got here. I don't care if you guys have other plans, but if you guys really aren't horse-dung then you'll find a safe place to hide and keep warm," she said so they all could hear. She stroked Zavier's head again and glared at them all. They were standing in an open field, only one safe layer of trees behind them. Otherwise, anything could spot them and decide it was hungry.
He stared at the other figures in the dark. He had a red-splotched face with tears falling down quietly. He was only a six year old, unaware he was a Centaur and had never seen a fairy or a griffon before. His sister, Melany, had never let him out f their small shack in Asgard. Slowly he stepped forward, the curiosity over taking him as he sniffled with fear. He took another shaky step in his over-alls and white shirt with caution. He wanted to call out, but he was too afraid too.
Melany:
After she had laid there for a few good minutes, she stood up and sighed. Suddenly, her body began to blur and shift until she was at least 8 feet tall to her head. Her body seemed to be perched on a appaloosa horse with no head. Her ears were longer and furrier. She listened carefully until she heard foot steps in the distance. She bolted in that direction until she came upon other Asgardians. She scowled. None of them appeared to be with her brother. But then she saw a very small figure behind them taking cautious steps towards them. She narrowed her eyes and clenched her jaw. She couldn't have her brother see her like this, but she had to get him before he was broken and shattered. She cantered forward, out of the line of trees towards her brother, but as she got closer, her body yet again shifted until she was a human sprinting. She smiled and ran towards him, arms outspread. "Zavier!" she exclaimed. His head whipped around at the familiar voice and a huge smile grew. Tears began to stream down his face again as Melany scooped him up. "Shhh...." she whispered in his small and delicate ears. "I'm here. It's okay..." she said. She hugged him closer until the only sound she could hear from him was a downrated sniffle.
The red headed girl awoke with a start. It was cold, but her eyes stayed stiff and shut with her own ability. She groaned and opened them. She nearly screamed, but was careful not to incase someone she didn't want to run into was around. She stood up steadily. She was still in her black leather boots, brown pants and white short with a black torso. One moment she had been Asgard, that most wonderful city she knew of, and now she was in a desolate landscape.
That's when the scariest thing she had ever felt hit her.
Where's Zavier?!, she thought urgently, looking around for her younger brother. He was nowhere to be seen. She started to panic and breath heavily. She wanted to shout his name, but he was still no where to be seen. She sat back down. That's when the tears started to well. She had no idea where she was, why she was there, and where her younger brother Zavier was. He was the only reason she had kept going. Now she had lost the last thing she loved.
Her wings drooped, discouraged that she couldn't have gotten any useful information. She sighed gently and flew back down toward her friends. As she got closer, she saw that the were-wolves were moving toward Nova and Cloudbreaker. She squinted to see a smaller figure behind them. As she fluttered down even further, the figure appeared to be a boy, around her age, trailing along behind them.
"Must be another were-wolf." she thought.
She flew down and hovered next to Nova and Cloud, just as the were-wolves came into eye-sight and ear-shot. Cloud looked tense, while Nova looked slightly confused. Bailyn concentrated on getting bigger again. Right now, what use was she to them in fairy form? She felt herself enlarge and the familiar tingling sensation as the wings retracted. Now in human form, she smiled gently toward the were-wolves and flicked her hand as some sort of a wave.
(Due to the increasing amount of homework, I don’t think I will be able to continue to be doing the RPs. Sorry! You guys can totally use my characters to keep them in the story if you want. School is getting REALLY hectic and I’m becoming super busy. Sorry again!)
Long before the creature, witch was now identifiable as a young were-coyote, came crashing through the woods, Ulric had become aware of a faerie and a horse like being on the far side of the large clearing he and Tala were in. But had stopped paying attention to the pair when the were-coyote had approached, now he was taking a defensive position next to Tala and was glaring at the new comer.
Ewan-
Ewan shrunk away from the werewolves gaze, terrified about what might happen. "I-I sorry."" he stammered, not sure what else to do, "I'll j-just leave now... if that's alright." The young were-coyote started backing into the woods.
Ulric-
Ulric glanced at Tala, and she gave him a confused look, clearly not realizing that the boy standing before them was a were-coyote. Then silently cursing himself for not teaching his beta more about other super natural creatures, he relaxed and took a step towards the frightened boy, but as soon as Ulric's foot landed on the ground, the were-coyote bolted.
Tala-
Tala was very confused about what was going on, but when the kid bolted, she lunged after him, catching him by the back of his shirt. She dragged him down, and then sat on him. Once she was sure she had him, Tala looked down and saw that her captive's eyes had turned from brown to glowing sapphire blue. Startled, Tala let go of him. The boy tried again to bolt, but by this time Ulric was ready to catch him.
Ewan-
Completely running on instinct, Ewan tried to free himself from the male were-wolf, but he quickly realized that he was never going to escape, so he gave up. He looked up at his captor and said in the bravest voice he could, "I-If you're going to k-kill me, at least make it fast."
Ulric-
The alpha werewolf smirked, and released his grip on the were-coyote, who stared up at him confused. "Relax," said Ulric, "I'm not going to kill you, I just wanted to stop you from running away."
Ewan-
Relieved that he wasn't about to die, he did as the male werewolf had instructed. "Why would you do that?" he asked.
Tala-
Tala was growing more and more confused by the moment, she had no clue what was going on, but something was defiantly off.
Ulric-
Ulric sighed, "Because I don't know where this place is, and I figure that you don't either." there was a long silence that followed this statement, so Ulric figured he had assumed correctly about the were-coyote. After a moment or two, the alpha were-wolf stretched out his hand to help the boy to his feet, "What's your name?"
Ewan-
Ewan wasn't quite sure what to do, but he was gland he wasn't the only one who was lost. "Ewan. Ewan Welpen." he said, answering the werewolf's question, "You?"
Ulric-
"I'm Ulric Jungle, and this is my beta Tala Madchen." said Ulric, motioning to Tala.
Tala-
Tala stepped forward when Ulric introduced her, "Hi," she said, then quickly added, "Why are your eyes not blue, and not yellow like mine?"
Ewan-
Ewan looked at Tala, and woundered how she didn't know what he was, "That's because I'm not a werewolf, I'm a were-coyote." he answered, then turning to Ulric he asked, "So if us three don't know where we are, do you think there are more were-creatures that are lost."
Ulric-
Ulric shook his head, "I have no idea, but I do know we're not the only ones lost." he cast a glance in the direction of the faerie and horse-like being, who had just taken to the skies. "We should probably go over and see if they know anything." Tala and Ewan nodded, then they both followed Ulric over to the other side of the clearing.
Ewan woke up, and realized right off the bat that he had no clue where he was. But he wasn't overly concerned because he had become quite adept at finding his location after loosing control on full moons. The young were-coyote pick himself off the ground, and sniffed the air. That's weird, thought Ewan, as a verity of smells wafted into his nose, he couldn't pick out any scent trail that belonged to him. Maybe it just rained or something, he reasoned, but the ground was perfectly dry, no chance of a scent trail getting washed away. It was then Ewan started to panic a little, if he didn't have a scent trail to follow, he might end up miles away from his band, and a lone were-coyote, especially one as young as himself, probably would last all that long He began franticly sniffing that, hoping that he had missed something, but instead of finding his scent, Ewan caught a whiff of something familiar that kinda smelled like a were-coyote, but it was some how different. But instead of waiting around to try to figure out was different about it, he started off in the direction the smell was coming from. It only took Ewan a few minuets to locate the place where the scent was coming from, a clearing about 50 feet from where he had woken up, and he head towards it as fast as he could, making a considerable amount of noise as he did so. Ewan was about ready to enter the clearing, when he suddenly remembered what the scent belonged to, it was a werewolf's! And werewolves often killed were-coyotes that wonder into their territories. His pulse started to quick, but it was to late to turn back, he was already starting in the clearing, looking straight at two werewolves, who were glaring back at him...
She laid on the ground ,in human form, her long hair draped over her back and shoulders. Her eyes flared open and she gasped and sat up abruptly.
She looked around, "Where-" she stood up, trying to find her bearings
"The last thing I remember is flying alone above Asgard...how did I get here?" she mumbled to herself, looking around.
Nova:
She was already up and padding around in a big circle surrounding her friends. Her hawk head was swiveling around and her wings flared. She tromped over to Cloudbreaker, who was standing up and looking just as confused as every one else. "I don't like this. The smell...it's nothing like I've ever smelled before." she sniffed again then huffed "Hmph, I'm not sure how we got here," she said, answering the question he was about to ask her, "But, I wouldn't like to stay and find out."
(Thigs from other mythologies end up in Anok, witch would include things from Egyptian, Norse, Chinese, and Greek/Roman myths, plus another unnatural creatures you think would fit in)
Tala's eyes fluttered open, and she caught a glimpse of an unfamiliar sky line. Slightly confused, the young werewolf sat up and looked around, and realized that nothing surrounding her was recognizable. Tala breathed in and tried to catch a scent that would help her figure out where she was, but the only smell she could recognize was that of Ulric, who, as she looked around, noticed was leaning on a tree a few yards away.
"Where are we?" asked Tala, as she picked herself up, and moved closer to her alpha.
Ulric shook his head, "I have no idea."
Tala scoffed, "So... your saying that you may have lost control last night?" There was a long pause after that, in which Ulric didn't answer, but finally something accrued to Tala, "Do you think we might be in Asgard?"
"No," answered Ulric, "I don't recognize anything here."
"But couldn't this be a place you haven't been yet"?"
Ulric shot his beta a glare, "We are not in Asgard."
Tala raised her hands, "Okay, it was just a suggestion." she said, slightly disappointed. This was because, since werewolves weren't technically from Norse mythology, and they spent most of their time in 'Midgard', it was considered a great honor to visit the home of the Norse gods. And Tala had been fantasizing about going ever since Ulric had told her about being found as a pup as growing up Asgard.
Suddenly, Tala felt Ulric touch her arm, then saw him motion to her to be quiet. She was about to ask him what he was doing, when a whiff of something strange drifted into her nose, and then she heard the sound of something coming towards her.
As soon as the sun touched the horizon, Ulric pulled Taya's chains out of his backpack, and with a lot of complaining on Taya's part, managed to secure the girl's arm's and legs.
Ulric stood on a mound of stones in the middle of a clearing in human form, looking around for signs of danger. Tala, Ulric's young beta, sat a few feet away on an old fallen down tree, also in human form. The pair been hiking all day to reach this spot, and now they were anxiously waiting for nightfall. This was because tonight there would be a full moon, and it was common for newer werewolves, like Tala, to loose control of their animal side and go full wolf, and so to protect both the girl and others, Ulric and his beta got as far from civilization as possible.
"Do we really have to do this again?" ask Tala, looking up at her alpha.
Ulric sighed, "We've already been over this." he said, "You haven't show very good control during full moons so far, and I'm not going to take any chances."
Tala looked disappointed, "I wish you'd have a little more faith in me."
"You are seriously going to go there?" said Ulric, shaking his head. "I have faith in you Tala, but I don't have faith in the wolf. Ever since I bit you, you have struggled to maintain control, and I'll admit that you are much better now then you were at the time, but you are not ready to go at this without help."
Tala rolled her eyes, "Okay, one, I didn't ask to be bitten, and two, your 'help' sucks."
"If I hadn't bitten you, you would've have died from cancer a year and a half ago." pointed out Ulric, as he recalled seeing Tala when she was on her death bed. She had been pale and week, but her eyes had this fierce look in them, and that look had given him an overwhelming erge to save her.
"Hellooooo?" said Tala, and Ulric realized that he was staring of into space again.
"Uh, sorry." said Ulric, then there was a brief science before he added, "And my help dose not suck."
Tala snorted, "Says the werewolf that chains his only beta to a tree every full moon."
Valen steered her silvery steed towards Odin's palace. the time was up and she had to go to the human battlefield now. The Valkyries let out their powerful Valkyrie battle-cry even though they were not fighting. Dale, Tori, Brin, and Anselma rode aongside her with Hurrikan, Jaspion, Grante, and Volter. All of there ravens, Siel, Kor, Londer, and Rion flew by their shoulders. They descended on a almost deserrted battlefields, many soldiers lay dying on the dusty grounds. Val swerved to a brown haired, green eyed soldier clutchjing is injury. even in his throes of death, his green eyes sparkled, they were beginning to dull. Only a few minutes remaining, Val thought. She gently pushed the brave soldiers head up, "I am a Valkyrie, i shall reap you so you shall reach Valhalla, a place for the bgravest soldiers. Would you like me to give you my name? you woluld have to be attached to me though, and bear my mark." Valen said, feeling the slightest attractive pull to him. "you are brave honorable soldier."
He blinked and hesitated, "i'm... i'm not sure, no, please. thank you....." his spirit flew above his body, and they rode up towards Asgard with everyone else. Heimdall, the Bifrost's guard came up to greet them, "keep going!" HE CALLED OUT.
She was sitting peacefully on a rock, her knees pulled to her chest and her arms wrapped around them. She was humming slightly to a slow, but pretty tune as the wind ruffled her long hair. Suddenly, a twig snapped and her pointed ears flicked toward the noise. She climbed off the rock and stood up and peered into the bushes. "Hello?!" she asked, thumbing thought the leaves. Two pairs of amber eyes beaded back at her. She gasped as the figure lurched out of the bushes. She stepped back and the figure tackled her to the ground. It spread it's wings wide, it's amber eyes still lurching down on her, as the beast placed it's sharp talon on her chest. Bailyn yelped her covered her eyes with her hands, feeling like this thing was going to end her life.
~~
"GOT YA!!! HAHAHAAA!!!!!" yelled a familiar voice. Bailyn peeked through her hands to see Nova rolling on the ground with laughter and she stood up. "Nova!!?!!!???! Don't scare me like that!!!! Odin have mercy!!" she said, out of breath.
Nova:
"Hahahahahahahaaaaaaa!!!!! I got you SO good!!!" she chuckled, arching her neck, feeling proud.
Bailyn: She sighed and chuckled "I'm going to have a heart attack and I'm only 13, thanks to you!" she said, catching her breath and starting to laugh at how silly she acted.
Nova:
She chuckled and nodded. "That sounds like a good one. My favorite ones are probably scaring Bailyn. I'd creep up on her and boom! I jump out and scare her! Oooh! You should see her face. It's priceless." She squawked, nudging Bailyn who was blushing madly.
Bailyn:
"Hey, don't judge me! I thought you were a cougar or something! And also, you always scare me when I'm in the garden, so I never expect it!!!" She mumbled, her ears a bright red, which just made Nova laugh even harder.
Nova:
She sighed as she collected herself. "Ahhh, I'm too good! I've got some more really good pranks that even Loki doesn't stand a chance against." She said, arching her hawk head. Bailyn rolled her eyes. "You're so humble, Nova." She said, sarcastically.
Bailyn:
She smiled at the shapeshifter. "I love flying and taking care of animals and nature." She giggled, braiding Cloudfeather's mane as he dozed soundly beside her.
Nova:
"Hey! I love pranks too!!" She said, flicking her lion's tail back and forth with glee. "What's your favorite prank you like to pull?" She asked..
Tala-
She shruged, "I just was curious considering I've never been to Asgard."
Colin:
He nodded after he had introduced himself to Tala. "I'm pretty sure we are all from Asgard," he chuckled.
Tala-
"Well, it's nice to meet all of you. " said Tala. There was such a wide range of creatures here, and all of them were ones she had been longing to meet. "You guys are all from Asgard, right?"
(-sigh- Sorry everyone! I'm Back...finally! sry I haven't been on in a while...I hate school)
Melany:
She was outside when she heard these questions. She had been carefully eating some of the grasses, to make sure the land wasn't poisoned. She shifted back to human form and walked in to help answer the questions. She had observed all other Asgardians in the shadows, and knew much about them, but she would let them answer for themselves. "We could ask you the same quesstion," she said with a smile, "but I'll be happy to answer them. I am a centaur, as you have plainly seen, and my name is Melany," she said before backing out of the cave to look at the stars.
Melany:
She thought for a moment, and right before they were to cook the deer, she took it and held it in the air, examining it. "Alright. Then I'll cut it into a portion for you guys to eat raw, and for all of them to eat cooked," she said, going to the outside of the cave to do so. But before she left, she muttered, "I wonder why I'm preparing food I won't even eat!" She scowled as she grabbed her sharp rock she had left outside the mouth of the cave and began sawing through the raw meat. Once she was done, there were two halves of the deer. One for the were-wolves, and one for all the other Asgardians. She brought back and tossed it to the Tala who caught it easily, and set the other half on the stick to roast.
Nova:
She glared. "Well...How was I supposed to do that!?" she said, indicating her wings and talons.
Cloud:
He nickered in amusement. "Same. But, that's a nice fire." he said, going over to it and laying down, enjoying it's warmth.
Bailyn:
She grinned and gave Melany a quick thumbs up before following Cloud and sitting down beside him, rubbing her hands together and quickly warming up.
Melany:
She pushed them aside. "You guys are hopeless sometimes," she laughed, grabbing one of the sticks, some dry straw she had found, and started to move the stick quickly. She had placed it in the center of the straw and began to twirl with amazing amount of pressure. Miraculously, the straw lit and the fire was started, glowing warmly. She sighed at the warmth she hadn't felt in so long, and looked over at her supposedly sleeping brother with a sense of joy she hadn't felt in a long time.
Cloudbreaker:
"Yeah, but, right now, I think we have bigger things to worry about-"
Nova:
"-Like starting a fire to cook this meat! I'm starving!!" she said, interrupting. She had moved the sticks and logs into a big pile, waiting for flames.
Bailyn:
"And how are we going to set it aflame? No one has that power." she said, placing her hands on her hips.
Nova:
"Well.....what about the sun?! That could set it on fire!"
Cloudbreaker:
-Smacks Nova upside the head with his wing-. "The sun can't set anything on fire, silly! Besides, the sun's already setting." he pointing toward the orangey-light coming from outside the cave.
Nova:
Glares at Cloud and frowns. "Then, how do we cook it!?" she squawked, getting frustrated.
Melany:
She shook her head. "I can say it because this land is not the same as Asgard. It is much darker and holds more secrets waiting to be explored," she said.
Melany:
She stood up. "I'll tell you why," she said to Cloudbreaker, "because there are creatures like us. Anything is possible in this world. Anything," she said as if she had just seen the most terrible thing in the world. "That's what makes it so wonderful and terribly frightening," she finsihed, her bearings back.
Cloudbreaker:
He loped back into the cave, his eyes bulging looking as if he's seen a ghost. He went over to the fire pit and placed the sticks ,that he was carrying in his wings, in the pit. Then, he jerked his head away and went back to the side of the cave and exhaled deeply.
Bailyn:
"Cloud? You alright?" she asked, going over to him and running her fingers though his dark gray mane.
Cloudbreaker:
He lifted his head to look up. "I-I've never seen anything like it...While I was collecting sticks, there was these.... winged horses. They looked a lot like me, in some ways. But, I-I thought that I was the one and only Son of Pegasus...how can there be more? And if there is more, why are they here?!" he huffed, his breathing increasing. He stamped his hooves and lashed his tail, confused and angry.
( Nova was carrying rocks not sticks btw )
Melany:
She entered the cave in time to hear Tala's question and nodded. "yes. At least they are. I don't eat any meat of any kind," she said as she helped Nova set up a fire inside the cave using a pile of sticks they had collected earlier and using the rocks.
Zavier:
He popped one eye open and nearly blew his cover as he saw his sister with the body of the horse and then change to the sister he knew. He quickly shut his eye as to not be caught, but listened to their conversation.
Bailyn:
As Melany came back to the cave, she saw that she was carrying a dead, bloody deer. Her heart pounded and her knees were like jelly. Yes, she ate meat, but never deer, and she's never seen a dead one. She was a faerie; it was her responsibility to care for the animals and the plants of Asgard gardens. She ripped her eyes away the deer and looked down, feeling ashamed.
Cloudbreaker:
He stood up straighter "I'll go get the firewood." he said and cantered out of the cave and into the woods.
Nova:
"I'll help look for rocks." she said, going over to Melany.
Bailyn:
She pushed the dead deer out of her mind. "And I'll....." there wasn't much she could do. In fairy form she was almost useless, in this situation, and in human form, she wasn't much help either. "I'll do whatever is needed...." she said, shrugging
Melany:
She looked up and gasped. There were tons of zooming dark figures up above in the shape of.... horses? But they were flying. She stared up in awe again. Apparently there were pegasi here like from Asgard. But they were much more beautiful and wild. She estimated about 15 steeds in total and continued on walking in centaur form. Then she heard a flutter of a heart beat. A dying heart beat. She looked around quickly. Then there it was. A deer on the ground, slowly dying. She didn't know what had caused it, but she picked it up from it's back legs and examined it. She would find a stream and a sharp rock. Soon she found a stream, grabbed a sharp rock from it, and in human form, guiltily stripped the skin from the deer. She made the deer ready to be eaten, but it would need to be baked first. So she shifted back into centaur form and made her way back to the cave. She stood in the mouth and shifted back to human. "Alright. Here's the meat. Now we need a fire," she said as they all looked her way hungrily at the deer. "We all need to pitch in for you all to have food tonight. Everyone start collecting firewood, please. I'll find rocks for the wall of the fire pit and a stick to roast it on," she said.
(BACCCKK)
( Okay bye!!!! )
Bailyn:
She spun around at the voice of someone new and she gasped softly as the raven turned into a human. She approached him, with Nova at her side, eyeing him suspiciously. She smiled in greeting, knowing this stranger was Asgardian, "Of course you can. Were you transported here as well?" she asked, through her clattering teeth. "Oh! Where are my manners?! I'm Bailyn. And this is Nova." she said, pointing to the fierce griffin.
( BACK )
Colin:
He was flying above a cave filled with more Asgardians in raven form. He looked down and cocked his head. He landed in the mouth of the cave and shape shifted back into human. When all of them looked at him with surprise, he grinned and said, "May I join you fellow Asgardians tonight?"
Melany:
She didn't say anything to the new arrival. She just sat there, her younger brother curled up in her arms.
( gtg to bed. See ya tommorrow! )
Melany:
She sighed. She didn't like the way she was acting towards these asgardians, but she had too. She needed an excuse to stay away. If she stayed, there was no telling how much danger her brother could get in. A silent tear slipped down her face, but she wiped it away quickly and followed the others. It hadn't been long when they had reached a cave. She could fit inside in centaur form, but she shifted back to her human state, cradling Zavier in her arms. She went to the very back of the cave and sat there, huddled with only her brother. If he woke up to all these asgardians, he would not be able to handle it. He had never seen anything like them. He didn't even know his sister was a centaur. She took off her small leather jacket and wrapped her brother in it, keeping him close. She didn't fall asleep at all, but rather stayed awake to the sound of his gentle breathing. She kissed his forehead gently and whispered, "Goodnight," and settled into a comfortable position where she could watch all the other strangers in the cave with them.
Melany:
She raised an eyebrow. "Oh? Then why are all of you still standing here?" she hissed. She glared menacingly at Wynter. "You'd be surprised what I can do, horse," she growled. She could understand anything related to the common horse, for she was a centaur. Zavier had fallen asleep on her back. Melany back away as too not bump into anyone as her body began to shift again. Now she was in her true form, with her hair falling to waist length and wild. She cradled Zavier in her arms as she loomed over everyone. She stroked his hair. "I have no doubt that you can find shelter, for I do know of what you are," she said to Ulric. "It is what is here that I doubt," she said. No one every listened to her. Probably because she was an eighteen year old girl with no power what soever other than scaring people when she changed into a centaur.
Wynter saw him sorta blushing and "smiled" at Cloud, she whuffed, drinking in his scent and exchanging breaths.
Valen looked at Melany, "I saw Henry Hudson adrift, set afloat with some of his crew and son on what you now call Hudson bay. What makes you think I can't find a shelter to keep us all warm?," she spread out her hands, "I've been alive for a long time and in human years im young. Don't call us Horse-dung as it does have its properties and does insult Wynter" She stroked her mare's fine dappled coat.
Wynter whuffed at Valen and striked a powerfully muscled leg and a sharp hoof to the ground after she backed away from Cloud. She pranced around powerfully around Melany and blew a sharp breath at her. Not dangerous, but a little threatening.
( XDD. )
Melany:
She flicked her eyes towards the others a few feet away, and stomped right up to them, Zavier still in arms. "Look, I don't who you guys are or what we're doing here, but you guys are all idiots," (Pardon her language) she hissed. "We are out in the open and none of us know where we are or how we got here. I don't care if you guys have other plans, but if you guys really aren't horse-dung then you'll find a safe place to hide and keep warm," she said so they all could hear. She stroked Zavier's head again and glared at them all. They were standing in an open field, only one safe layer of trees behind them. Otherwise, anything could spot them and decide it was hungry.
Zavier:
He stared at the other figures in the dark. He had a red-splotched face with tears falling down quietly. He was only a six year old, unaware he was a Centaur and had never seen a fairy or a griffon before. His sister, Melany, had never let him out f their small shack in Asgard. Slowly he stepped forward, the curiosity over taking him as he sniffled with fear. He took another shaky step in his over-alls and white shirt with caution. He wanted to call out, but he was too afraid too.
Melany:
After she had laid there for a few good minutes, she stood up and sighed. Suddenly, her body began to blur and shift until she was at least 8 feet tall to her head. Her body seemed to be perched on a appaloosa horse with no head. Her ears were longer and furrier. She listened carefully until she heard foot steps in the distance. She bolted in that direction until she came upon other Asgardians. She scowled. None of them appeared to be with her brother. But then she saw a very small figure behind them taking cautious steps towards them. She narrowed her eyes and clenched her jaw. She couldn't have her brother see her like this, but she had to get him before he was broken and shattered. She cantered forward, out of the line of trees towards her brother, but as she got closer, her body yet again shifted until she was a human sprinting. She smiled and ran towards him, arms outspread. "Zavier!" she exclaimed. His head whipped around at the familiar voice and a huge smile grew. Tears began to stream down his face again as Melany scooped him up. "Shhh...." she whispered in his small and delicate ears. "I'm here. It's okay..." she said. She hugged him closer until the only sound she could hear from him was a downrated sniffle.
(kk)
( No, I think he might've been just trasnported somewhere else randomly...? )
Melany:
The red headed girl awoke with a start. It was cold, but her eyes stayed stiff and shut with her own ability. She groaned and opened them. She nearly screamed, but was careful not to incase someone she didn't want to run into was around. She stood up steadily. She was still in her black leather boots, brown pants and white short with a black torso. One moment she had been Asgard, that most wonderful city she knew of, and now she was in a desolate landscape.
That's when the scariest thing she had ever felt hit her.
Where's Zavier?!, she thought urgently, looking around for her younger brother. He was nowhere to be seen. She started to panic and breath heavily. She wanted to shout his name, but he was still no where to be seen. She sat back down. That's when the tears started to well. She had no idea where she was, why she was there, and where her younger brother Zavier was. He was the only reason she had kept going. Now she had lost the last thing she loved.
( Hmm.. I think I can work with that.. Thanks! BTW I commented on Invasion and I think Alternative Endings )
Bailyn:
Her wings drooped, discouraged that she couldn't have gotten any useful information. She sighed gently and flew back down toward her friends. As she got closer, she saw that the were-wolves were moving toward Nova and Cloudbreaker. She squinted to see a smaller figure behind them. As she fluttered down even further, the figure appeared to be a boy, around her age, trailing along behind them.
"Must be another were-wolf." she thought.
She flew down and hovered next to Nova and Cloud, just as the were-wolves came into eye-sight and ear-shot. Cloud looked tense, while Nova looked slightly confused. Bailyn concentrated on getting bigger again. Right now, what use was she to them in fairy form? She felt herself enlarge and the familiar tingling sensation as the wings retracted. Now in human form, she smiled gently toward the were-wolves and flicked her hand as some sort of a wave.
(Aww!! Ok...I hope school gets easier!)
(Due to the increasing amount of homework, I don’t think I will be able to continue to be doing the RPs. Sorry! You guys can totally use my characters to keep them in the story if you want. School is getting REALLY hectic and I’m becoming super busy. Sorry again!)
(Sorry that was so long)
Uric-
Long before the creature, witch was now identifiable as a young were-coyote, came crashing through the woods, Ulric had become aware of a faerie and a horse like being on the far side of the large clearing he and Tala were in. But had stopped paying attention to the pair when the were-coyote had approached, now he was taking a defensive position next to Tala and was glaring at the new comer.
Ewan-
Ewan shrunk away from the werewolves gaze, terrified about what might happen. "I-I sorry."" he stammered, not sure what else to do, "I'll j-just leave now... if that's alright." The young were-coyote started backing into the woods.
Ulric-
Ulric glanced at Tala, and she gave him a confused look, clearly not realizing that the boy standing before them was a were-coyote. Then silently cursing himself for not teaching his beta more about other super natural creatures, he relaxed and took a step towards the frightened boy, but as soon as Ulric's foot landed on the ground, the were-coyote bolted.
Tala-
Tala was very confused about what was going on, but when the kid bolted, she lunged after him, catching him by the back of his shirt. She dragged him down, and then sat on him. Once she was sure she had him, Tala looked down and saw that her captive's eyes had turned from brown to glowing sapphire blue. Startled, Tala let go of him. The boy tried again to bolt, but by this time Ulric was ready to catch him.
Ewan-
Completely running on instinct, Ewan tried to free himself from the male were-wolf, but he quickly realized that he was never going to escape, so he gave up. He looked up at his captor and said in the bravest voice he could, "I-If you're going to k-kill me, at least make it fast."
Ulric-
The alpha werewolf smirked, and released his grip on the were-coyote, who stared up at him confused. "Relax," said Ulric, "I'm not going to kill you, I just wanted to stop you from running away."
Ewan-
Relieved that he wasn't about to die, he did as the male werewolf had instructed. "Why would you do that?" he asked.
Tala-
Tala was growing more and more confused by the moment, she had no clue what was going on, but something was defiantly off.
Ulric-
Ulric sighed, "Because I don't know where this place is, and I figure that you don't either." there was a long silence that followed this statement, so Ulric figured he had assumed correctly about the were-coyote. After a moment or two, the alpha were-wolf stretched out his hand to help the boy to his feet, "What's your name?"
Ewan-
Ewan wasn't quite sure what to do, but he was gland he wasn't the only one who was lost. "Ewan. Ewan Welpen." he said, answering the werewolf's question, "You?"
Ulric-
"I'm Ulric Jungle, and this is my beta Tala Madchen." said Ulric, motioning to Tala.
Tala-
Tala stepped forward when Ulric introduced her, "Hi," she said, then quickly added, "Why are your eyes not blue, and not yellow like mine?"
Ewan-
Ewan looked at Tala, and woundered how she didn't know what he was, "That's because I'm not a werewolf, I'm a were-coyote." he answered, then turning to Ulric he asked, "So if us three don't know where we are, do you think there are more were-creatures that are lost."
Ulric-
Ulric shook his head, "I have no idea, but I do know we're not the only ones lost." he cast a glance in the direction of the faerie and horse-like being, who had just taken to the skies. "We should probably go over and see if they know anything." Tala and Ewan nodded, then they both followed Ulric over to the other side of the clearing.
Ewan-
Ewan woke up, and realized right off the bat that he had no clue where he was. But he wasn't overly concerned because he had become quite adept at finding his location after loosing control on full moons. The young were-coyote pick himself off the ground, and sniffed the air. That's weird, thought Ewan, as a verity of smells wafted into his nose, he couldn't pick out any scent trail that belonged to him. Maybe it just rained or something, he reasoned, but the ground was perfectly dry, no chance of a scent trail getting washed away. It was then Ewan started to panic a little, if he didn't have a scent trail to follow, he might end up miles away from his band, and a lone were-coyote, especially one as young as himself, probably would last all that long He began franticly sniffing that, hoping that he had missed something, but instead of finding his scent, Ewan caught a whiff of something familiar that kinda smelled like a were-coyote, but it was some how different. But instead of waiting around to try to figure out was different about it, he started off in the direction the smell was coming from. It only took Ewan a few minuets to locate the place where the scent was coming from, a clearing about 50 feet from where he had woken up, and he head towards it as fast as he could, making a considerable amount of noise as he did so. Ewan was about ready to enter the clearing, when he suddenly remembered what the scent belonged to, it was a werewolf's! And werewolves often killed were-coyotes that wonder into their territories. His pulse started to quick, but it was to late to turn back, he was already starting in the clearing, looking straight at two werewolves, who were glaring back at him...
Bailyn:
She laid on the ground ,in human form, her long hair draped over her back and shoulders. Her eyes flared open and she gasped and sat up abruptly.
She looked around, "Where-" she stood up, trying to find her bearings
"The last thing I remember is flying alone above Asgard...how did I get here?" she mumbled to herself, looking around.
Nova:
She was already up and padding around in a big circle surrounding her friends. Her hawk head was swiveling around and her wings flared. She tromped over to Cloudbreaker, who was standing up and looking just as confused as every one else. "I don't like this. The smell...it's nothing like I've ever smelled before." she sniffed again then huffed "Hmph, I'm not sure how we got here," she said, answering the question he was about to ask her, "But, I wouldn't like to stay and find out."
(Thigs from other mythologies end up in Anok, witch would include things from Egyptian, Norse, Chinese, and Greek/Roman myths, plus another unnatural creatures you think would fit in)
Tala-
Tala's eyes fluttered open, and she caught a glimpse of an unfamiliar sky line. Slightly confused, the young werewolf sat up and looked around, and realized that nothing surrounding her was recognizable. Tala breathed in and tried to catch a scent that would help her figure out where she was, but the only smell she could recognize was that of Ulric, who, as she looked around, noticed was leaning on a tree a few yards away.
"Where are we?" asked Tala, as she picked herself up, and moved closer to her alpha.
Ulric shook his head, "I have no idea."
Tala scoffed, "So... your saying that you may have lost control last night?" There was a long pause after that, in which Ulric didn't answer, but finally something accrued to Tala, "Do you think we might be in Asgard?"
"No," answered Ulric, "I don't recognize anything here."
"But couldn't this be a place you haven't been yet"?"
Ulric shot his beta a glare, "We are not in Asgard."
Tala raised her hands, "Okay, it was just a suggestion." she said, slightly disappointed. This was because, since werewolves weren't technically from Norse mythology, and they spent most of their time in 'Midgard', it was considered a great honor to visit the home of the Norse gods. And Tala had been fantasizing about going ever since Ulric had told her about being found as a pup as growing up Asgard.
Suddenly, Tala felt Ulric touch her arm, then saw him motion to her to be quiet. She was about to ask him what he was doing, when a whiff of something strange drifted into her nose, and then she heard the sound of something coming towards her.
(Cool! Could I please join? If not, that's totally fine.)
urmmm an RP thats based on mythological things and you caqn choose youyr mythological creature or human.
(Wow, this looks interesting! What is it about?)
(How about be so a time skip or something to when they all then up in Anok?)
Ulric:
As soon as the sun touched the horizon, Ulric pulled Taya's chains out of his backpack, and with a lot of complaining on Taya's part, managed to secure the girl's arm's and legs.
Ulric:
Ulric stood on a mound of stones in the middle of a clearing in human form, looking around for signs of danger. Tala, Ulric's young beta, sat a few feet away on an old fallen down tree, also in human form. The pair been hiking all day to reach this spot, and now they were anxiously waiting for nightfall. This was because tonight there would be a full moon, and it was common for newer werewolves, like Tala, to loose control of their animal side and go full wolf, and so to protect both the girl and others, Ulric and his beta got as far from civilization as possible.
"Do we really have to do this again?" ask Tala, looking up at her alpha.
Ulric sighed, "We've already been over this." he said, "You haven't show very good control during full moons so far, and I'm not going to take any chances."
Tala looked disappointed, "I wish you'd have a little more faith in me."
"You are seriously going to go there?" said Ulric, shaking his head. "I have faith in you Tala, but I don't have faith in the wolf. Ever since I bit you, you have struggled to maintain control, and I'll admit that you are much better now then you were at the time, but you are not ready to go at this without help."
Tala rolled her eyes, "Okay, one, I didn't ask to be bitten, and two, your 'help' sucks."
"If I hadn't bitten you, you would've have died from cancer a year and a half ago." pointed out Ulric, as he recalled seeing Tala when she was on her death bed. She had been pale and week, but her eyes had this fierce look in them, and that look had given him an overwhelming erge to save her.
"Hellooooo?" said Tala, and Ulric realized that he was staring of into space again.
"Uh, sorry." said Ulric, then there was a brief science before he added, "And my help dose not suck."
Tala snorted, "Says the werewolf that chains his only beta to a tree every full moon."
"So?" Ulric shot back, "You haven't killed anyone yet."
"Have you?" said Tala.
Ulric rolled his eyes, but chose not to answer, and instead watched as the sun crept closer to the horizon.
(What about all the other characters? Will they get transported to?)
(oki! letsdo that!)
Valen steered her silvery steed towards Odin's palace. the time was up and she had to go to the human battlefield now. The Valkyries let out their powerful Valkyrie battle-cry even though they were not fighting. Dale, Tori, Brin, and Anselma rode aongside her with Hurrikan, Jaspion, Grante, and Volter. All of there ravens, Siel, Kor, Londer, and Rion flew by their shoulders. They descended on a almost deserrted battlefields, many soldiers lay dying on the dusty grounds. Val swerved to a brown haired, green eyed soldier clutchjing is injury. even in his throes of death, his green eyes sparkled, they were beginning to dull. Only a few minutes remaining, Val thought. She gently pushed the brave soldiers head up, "I am a Valkyrie, i shall reap you so you shall reach Valhalla, a place for the bgravest soldiers. Would you like me to give you my name? you woluld have to be attached to me though, and bear my mark." Valen said, feeling the slightest attractive pull to him. "you are brave honorable soldier."
He blinked and hesitated, "i'm... i'm not sure, no, please. thank you....." his spirit flew above his body, and they rode up towards Asgard with everyone else. Heimdall, the Bifrost's guard came up to greet them, "keep going!" HE CALLED OUT.
Bailyn:
She was sitting peacefully on a rock, her knees pulled to her chest and her arms wrapped around them. She was humming slightly to a slow, but pretty tune as the wind ruffled her long hair. Suddenly, a twig snapped and her pointed ears flicked toward the noise. She climbed off the rock and stood up and peered into the bushes. "Hello?!" she asked, thumbing thought the leaves. Two pairs of amber eyes beaded back at her. She gasped as the figure lurched out of the bushes. She stepped back and the figure tackled her to the ground. It spread it's wings wide, it's amber eyes still lurching down on her, as the beast placed it's sharp talon on her chest. Bailyn yelped her covered her eyes with her hands, feeling like this thing was going to end her life.
~~
"GOT YA!!! HAHAHAAA!!!!!" yelled a familiar voice. Bailyn peeked through her hands to see Nova rolling on the ground with laughter and she stood up. "Nova!!?!!!???! Don't scare me like that!!!! Odin have mercy!!" she said, out of breath.
Nova:
"Hahahahahahahaaaaaaa!!!!! I got you SO good!!!" she chuckled, arching her neck, feeling proud.
Bailyn: She sighed and chuckled "I'm going to have a heart attack and I'm only 13, thanks to you!" she said, catching her breath and starting to laugh at how silly she acted.
