Valkyrie quickly wrapped the cloak around herself and waited. She hated going back on a promise, but this guy was pushing it. He came back minutes later, her clothes in his arms. "Here you go. I think something must have taken them. You should be more careful." She grapped them and went to a more private spot to dress. She came back, but not after having drawn her sais and hiding them in her sleeves. "Why would you steal my clothes? Just answer that one question for me."

Name: Kaya Valkyrie Age: 15 Appearence: 6'5", caramel skin, grey eyes, short spiky black hair with red dyed-in streaks; usually wears all black (jeans, boots, shirt, choker). Bio: Kaya was born into an extremely rich family and has also gotten whatever she wants, which isn't much. She's usually bored and got her first net navi so she could battle and meet new people. One day while watching TV, she saw the commercial for improved net navis. Always looking for a way to better herself in any way, she called the number. Personality: loud, outgoing, and outpsoken Battle chips: Flaming sword, Flaming sais, Phoenix, Flame Canon The net: Name: Phoenix Appearence: I'll have to think on this. I'm not good with words. Style(optional): Is this supposed to be fighting style? Signature attack: Flight of Phoenix-Makes a fire ball and throws it. It forms a Phoenix that attacks her opponent. She can also use other attacks after starting this. visser3, i'll pm you either a drawing, pic, or description of phoenix.

Here's the info on the mandolin. I spelled it wrong. :P [i]Mandolin, stringed instrument derived from the lute about 1700 in Italy. Of several kinds made in different cities, the Neapolitan mandolin became most popular. It has a deep, pear-shaped body and four pairs of steel strings tuned like a violin (G D A E, upward from the G below middle C). It is played with a plectrum, which creates the illusion of sustained tones by its rapid tremolo between the strings of each pair. The strings, hitched to a metal plate at the base of the body, run over a bridge and along the fretted fingerboard to machine-head tuning pegs. The belly angles down from the bridge to the base, increasing string tension for more brilliance of tone. The oval sound hole is surrounded by a protective shell plate.[/i]

OOC: Thanks for the reminder Blanko. IC: Kaya looked closely at the map. According to this, she was either in the wrong forest or..."HE GAVE ME THE WRONG MAP!!" She recognized the tree her father had told her so much about. She turned and ran quickly home. "MOM! Hello, is anyone there?" She checked the kitchen. "Hmm, maybe I've just missed something. I'm sure no one would mind if I tried to use the well." She walked to the shrine, removed the well's cover, and concentrated. After a few minutes, she jumped, sure she could do it this time. She landed at the bottom and looked up. There were trees all around. She climbed out and took out the map again. Now everything made sense. She ran swiftly through the forest then stopped. She heard that voice again. [i]Anybody... This is important... There are 5 scrolls hidden but only 2 people know where they are... one of which is dredus... and my father...unfortunatly he is dead because of dredus... so you must find them on your own... they are scattered.. on each one is part of a spell ... one scroll wont work unless the others are with it.. and only i can read it so its kind of difficult.. these will cut off 1 of dredus's forms but the scrolls wont do much there is someone you should meet... Lin.. She lives in Sujin a small village near the waterfall huts..i hope this helps.. i cant say much more i hear someone coming [/i] Well, that changed all her plans. She looked at the map again. There was a label on it she hadn't noticed before. A village called Sujin near a waterfall. She smiled and took off again. OOC: Okay, fixed it.

Xaphania gasped and backed away. 'They warned me, didn't they? He's not my type they said. I really should listen more.' "Umm, Damien? I think I should go now. You look you're going through, uhh, some things right now. If you want to find me, just wait for the battle. Don't look for me. Umm, bye." With that, she turned and flew off as fast as possible. She could sense Sakura and Chance ahead and rushed to catch up with them. "Chance, I saw Damien! You were right, he's not my type. I'm sorry I didn't listen, but technically, I didn't look for him. Please forgive me!"

Valkyrie woke slowly, yawning the entire time. She hated mornings. They were always so bright. She rolled onto her side and saw Dmitri sitting in a tree, staring at the horizon. "I'll be back later. I need to take care of some things." She began to walk back into the forest. "I'll go wih you. You might need protection." She turned and looked into his eyes. They seemed full of sadness. "I'll be fine. I'm going to bathe and then I have to find some 'friends' of mine. You should stay with your friend here. He's still asleep." With that, she took her leave. There was a small stream nearby. She quickly undressed and began bathing. She was about to get out when she felt a pair of eyes boaring into her back, almost as if they were searching for her heart. "Dmitri, please leave. I thought you were supposed to be with your friend." "He awoke, so I came to find you. I thought you might be in some kind of trouble." "Right. Of course you would." Keeping her back to him, she walked to the tree she had left her clothes under. "They aren't there anymore." She turned and looked. He was right. "WHAT DID YOU DO WITH MY CLOTHES?!?!"

Okay, finally checked back and editted my post. tell me if anything is wrong now.

Name: Valkyrie Age: 17 Appearance: long white hair, grey eyes, caramel skin, 6'5". Wears all black with a silver necklace Bio: Not much is known about Valkyrie, even by herself. She is the sole survivor of a fire that claimed the lives of her closest relatives. Now, she travels, hoping that one day she will find the people responsible. Recently, she has been hiring herself out as an assassin. Occupation: Assassin Weapons: seven foot long blade made of silver and a bow and arrows

Kaya looked over her map. According to this, she should go through a forest. A very large forest. She sighed. 'Good thing I took a nap.' She headed into the forest, hoping she would't meet anything along the way. OOC: Sorry, it's so short. I just want to give anyone in forest a chance to meet up with me if they want.

How could he know? This was usless. If she wanted to, she could go with them, find out more about him, maybe even get her revenge. It didn't matter. As long as she did [i]something[/i] she would be happy. And there would be someone like herself with her. Even if he did scare her slightly. She didn't enjoy anyone being able to read her so easily. She'd just have to deal with it. She made a promise and couldn't go back on it. Still uneasy, she fell asleep. Morning was coming soon.

Name: Kaya Valkyrie Age: 16 Description: short, spiky red and black hair, caramel skin, grey-green eyes; usually wears tight black jeans, black boots, a red shirt;always wears black lipstick and eyeliner with red mascara Country: Italy Bio: Kaya was born into a wealthy Italian family and hasn't had much of a chance to grow as a person. She lived a very sheltered life and began to rebel against her upbringing by dressing like a goth. When she turned 14, she began crystal fighting as a release of anger and another way to rebel. But the more she played, the better she got, the further up she moved in the rankings. She's met many people and has started to grow, little by little. Crystal: Pheonix Special Attacks: Fiery Kiss-blows a kiss that erupts in front of an opponent; Flight of Pheonix- makes a fire ball, throws it into the air. it takes the shape of a pheonix and attacks; Flaming swords-makes swords completely of flames. Can be any kind (long, short, broad, throwing, sais, etc.) Team: Hyper Speed Knights Appearance in Crystal Form: Same as description with long red and orange hair and large wings made of fire. If there's anything wrong with any of this, please pm me.

That little...she'd get him for that comment. She had trained herself to make her breathing as light as possible. He'd pay, along with everyone else. Unless he'd help her. That would change everything. "Dmitri, I kow you're not asleep, so tell me. What have I just agreed to? I do have my own agenda and need to know."

Xaphania flew, hoping she wouldn't be sensed. She stopped suddenly. There was Damien, just ahead. "Well, technically, I didn't look for him," she said to herself. She landed in front of him, startling him a little. "You again!" he snarled, bristling with anger. Obviously, he was still upset about the spikes thing. "I'm sorry if I upset you in anyway. I just, I don't know, thought I liked you. You are cute, especially the wings, horns, and claws, in an oh-my-god-this-guy-could-kill-me-with-those kind of way." 'Hmm,' he thought as she babbled on. 'She seems to know I can kill her, yet she's unafraid. She's either incredible brave, incredible strong, incredible stupid, or some combination of the three. Maybe I could use her...' "Uhh, hello, Damien, you still with me?" "Yes. Were you saying anything of importance. I'm very busy." "Uhh, yeah! I just said I love you. Or does that not matter to changelings?"

Valkyrie pricked her ears. The elf knew she was here and was telling the demon. Sighing, knowing she no longer had the element of surprise, she jumped down from trees, slightly ashamed. "Why are you in these forests? Who has sent you?" "The same could be asked about you. Why were you watching us anyway?" "My name is Valkyrie. I live here. I thought you were sent by my father to kill me. Does that answer all your questons? Now answer me." "Fine. I am Dmitri, the half-elf, half-drow. This is Dango, a wolf demon. We're on a quest. Would you like to join us?" She stared at him in slight disbelief. An elf, even if he was half-drow, accepting her? It was impossible. "I, uhh, I...yes?" "Well, if you're not sure, decide in the morning. You can stay here for tonight." "Thank you. Sorry for any trouble I may have caused you. You can call me Val, if you wish." "No trouble at all, Val. None at all."

Xaphania sighed. He was so hungry. Pulling one of the sais she always carried from behind her back, she sliced the man's wrist and held it over Joe's slightly opened mouth. The blood flowed slowly. In a few minutes, he was conscious again. "What happened?" he groaned. "You passed out from the thought of taking human blood. You came pretty close though." "Close to what? What are you talking about?" She sighed again. This boy must be dense. "Come on. I'll take you to someone who can explain all of this to you." They got back into the car and drove away. "Where are we going?" "To see an old friend. His name is Sebastian. There is another like you with him, named Davey. I was hoping he could help." She drove, recklessly again, when they came across Sebastian carrying Davey. "You look like you could use some help."

'Sleeping in Algebra! I love it! Hope she doesn't see me...*snores*' "Ms. Higurashi, would you like to tell me the answer? Or maybe you would prefer me to provide you with a pillow from now on?" "The answer is, uhh, seven?" "No, the answer is infinite solutions. If this wasn't last peiod, I would send you to the disciplinarian(sp). Do NOT fall asleep in my class again, do you understand?" "Yes." "Good. Now, as I was saying,..." Slowly, Kaya fell asleep again. [i]I must search for help... Here goes... Please all who can hear this... this message goes to the good of heart... this is Yallren, Ruler of the SpiderClan Region... I have been taken captive by Dredus.. a very powerfull demon who seeks to rule the land. He has now sent out a massive army of powerfull demons and mindless zombies to take over the colonies and regions one by one. I need your help! We all need your help... The clans.. the colonies.. Please help us.. bring peace back to the land.. you must defeat Dredus...but be warned... he is more powerfull than most of you out there... please kep this in mind... he has 4 forms... each one more stronger than the last...please...hurry[/i] She woke up with a start. At first, she thought it was just the bell for the end of the period, or some kind of candy-induced dream. But lunch had been hours ago and there were still ten minutes left in the class. Her ears began to twitch. She had to tell Uncle Sessho about this one. "And that's what happened," she concluded. He looked at her, still slightly confused. "Are you trying to tell me you heard a voice in your head? Or is this an excuse so you don't get in trouble for falling asleep in class again?" "THIS IS NOT AN EXCUSE!!!" she yelled. "I heard someone calling out for help. I need you to tell the school I won't be back for a while. You told me to use my traning to help people so here's my chance." "Then go if you must. Just don't fall in love with strange demons." "Uncle Sessho, when was the last time I did that?" "Yesterday." "Hmm, good point." With that, she collected a few essentials and was about to leave when she remembered on last thing. "Can I ask one last question?" "You already have, but you may ask another." "Where is the Spider Clan Region?" He smiled and handed her a map. Thanking him for all he had done, she left.

Xaphania sighed. What was with this guy? "Come on. I'll show you what to do." She walked back into the club and sauntered over to a random guy. She dance with him a while and took him outside. Kissing him slowly, she moved methodically from his lips to his neck. Covering his mouth, she sunk her fangs deep into his flesh and drank a little. Taking a deep breath, she looked over to Joe. "That is how you lure someone." She propped the body against the wall. The guy wimpered a little. "Now get over here." Joe came, almost hypnotized by her work. "Now just finish him. It should be easy. I know you're hungry." "What?!?! What do you mean? Did you even know his name?" "No." she said flatly, wiping the blood from the corners of her mouth. "It's easier to kill that way. Now finish him." "What happened?" The guy was starting to recover a little. "What just happened to me? Am I dead?" "Don't worry," Xaphania said sweetly, kneeling beside him, "you will be soon. Now," she turned to Joe, "finish him before I finish the both of you."

Name: Kaya Valkyrie Type: Bard Age: 16 Instrument/Weapon: Mandoline and a silver long sword BIO: Kaya was the daughter of a nobleman and has taught many fine arts, all of which she hates. But she was always regarded as one of the best musicians. One day while playing in her chambers, she was able to do many miraculous things, including some she does not wish to mention. She was cast out because of this and now wanders, searching for others like herself. Okay, I've editted it. If there is still anything wrong with this, please pm me.

OOC: Thanks much! Here's my character. Umm, I don't know if I'll metion this later, but she's a half-demon, half-human. IC: Valkyrie walked slowly through the Dark Woods. They had been her home for some time now. Her father had cast her out of his home. All for loving an elf. And for being a half breed. She had such human tendencies, she couldn't help admiring his beauty. He said he loved her slightly tanned skin, her amber eyes with cat-like slits, her long, silverish hair, her little dog-like ears. He said he loved all of it. Then he left her. Alone. With a daughter. Her father had kept her. He said she was his replacment for her. The bastard. She was easily the strongest of any of his children, fully demon or otherwise. Before she left, she stole his prived sword and a pair of sais. Both of them were priceless...and very powerful. She'd train then take her sweet revenge on all of them. There was a light ahead. She crept close not making a sound. It was a half-breed of some kind and a demon. A very powerful demon. She quietly climbed a nearby tree and waited for dawn. She'd find what they were here for in the morning.

Name: Inukaya Higurashi or Kaya for short Age: 17 Race: Hanyou Appearece: Looks almost exactly like Inu-yasha. Silver hair with thin black and red(dyed in) streaks, goldish eyes, silver dog ears, very sharp claws; usually wears black jeans, black boots and a red t-shirt. Impressions: usually very light-hearted and care-free but at times can be very much like Inu-Yasha. History/Bio: Inukaya is the daughter of Inu-Yasha and Kagome after they have returned to the Modern Era. For some reason, she was raised by her uncle Sesshomaru (who also lives in the Modern Era). He has trained her in the martial arts and swordsmanship. When she turned 16, he gave her a pair of sais and told her she was never to use her training unless it was in defense of herself or others. He also told her it was time for her to go to high school. Now in her junior year, she is involved in just about everything and hasn't once thought of anything other than school. That is, until she heard a cry for help. Remembering her uncle's advice, she has decided to find the person and help. Weapons: Silver Sais made for her by Toutousai(sp) Attacks: Thief of Souls-extends claws and slashes. very much like Inu-Yasha's Iron Reaver Soul Reaper(I hope that's what it's called); Graceful Killer- her sais glow yellow and she points at her target. takes the life of a human, injures a hanyou A LOT, and hurts a youkai pretty badly.

OOC: Sorry, BB. If I had known it was exams, I would have waited! IC: Xaphania laughed. It was almost cute. But still, he needed to eat something. Again, she stood against the wall, smoking another cigarette. "You really do need to eat something. Or, more correctly, someone. There's a club nearby. That's where we're going. Please, shower and get dressed. Now." He didn't move. He merely sat there, staring at her in disbelief. "Look, I'm not a very patient vampyre. You took too long to answer before. Now, you're a vampyre. Take too long again, and I'll do much worse." That woke him up. He took a quick shower and they left. Xaphania drove even more recklessly than usual. "Umm, do you always drive like this?" "Do you have a problem with my driving? I don't take critizism(sp) too well either." "Uhh, no." "Good." They got to the club without much more conversation. "Wait, before you get out, pull up your hood." "Why? Is something wrong with me?" "Did you even bother to look in the mirror?" "It was kind of hard. It's broken." "What?" Suddenly she remembered. She had punched her mirror yesterday. She was a little upset at having taken him. "You have pointed ears." "How can I? I've never had pointed ears! You don't even have them!" "Correction, I know how to do my hair so that no one sees them. You, on the other hand, don't have enough hair. I gave you that hoodie for a reason." She got out of the car. "Are you coming?" "Yeah, I guess so." He still felt light-headed, and was pretty slow. They walked in with no trouble at the door. "I guess they found his body. Too bad. One of them would have made a good first kill for you." "Whose body?" "One of the bouncers. Well, now you can learn how to lure someone. Go for a blond." "Why?" "They can be pretty easy. (OOC: Sorry to any blonds out there. Nothing personal. I just know some very...silly ones.) That one." She pointed to a girl in the corner. "Ask her to dance." "I'm still too light headed." "Just do it. You'll be fine. After a little while, tell her you want to go somewhere more private. Take her to the car. Simple. Now go." She handed him the keys and pushed him in her direction. He seemed to be doing very well. They walked out and she followed. "The rest is up to you." OOC: Okay, BB. You'll have to write whatever you do next.

"Go ahead. I have something I need to do first. Trust me, I'll be really quick." Xaphania said, smiling at Chance. He thought about it for a moment. "Okay, just find Old Kai. We'll be with him. What are you going to do anyway?" "I'm just gonna get my sais. That's all." "We'll come with you." Sakura put in. "Sulphy might be nearby." "No, I'll be fine by myself. If Sulphy's anywhere nearby, I'll bring her. Don't worry." "That's fine," Chance said. "Just promise me one thing, will ya?" "Sure, anything. Just name it." "Don't go looking for Damien." "Why? Are you jealous or something?" "Xaphania, are you dense? HE IS THE ENEMY! THE NEW EVIL! DOES ANY OF THIS RING A BELL?" "So?" He sighed. "Just don't go looking for him. You might get hurt." "I will not get hurt. He's pretty much harmless!" "HE IS A CHANGELING!" Sakura exploded. Xaphania's boy problem was definitely clouding her judgement. "Can you not understand that he won't always look like that? How can you see anything in him anyway?" "I like his wings. They're adorable. Well, bye!" She took off, leaving everyone looking at her in amazement. "That girl could find a new boyfriend every week." Kabito said. "That's the problem," Sakura sighed. ~~~ Xaphania flew away, humming happily. She'd get her sais, then find Damien. She just had to see him again! Suddenly, she realized what she was doing. If she went to see him, she could be endanger Chance! Oh yeah, and everyone else too. She quickly got her sais and flew after the others.

OOC: Sorry, BB. I feel like I'm not contributing to this RPG. IC: They stood there for a good fifteen minutes. He must have been thinking very hard about her proposal. Xaphania glanced a her watch. "Sorry, kid, I'm gonna have to cut this little heart-to-heart short." She walked over to him, covered his mouth, and dug her fangs deep into his skin. She drained him slowly, trying not to go overboard. When she had gone far enough, she propped him against his bed and pulled a sai from behind her back. Wincing, she made a small cut on her right wrist. ~Three Days Later~ "Where am I?" Joe asked groggily. His eyes slowly adjusted to the gloom. "You're in my apartment. You took too long to make a decision and my boss needs you. I wanted to give you a choice." He looked over to the wall she was standing against. She stood by an open window, smoking again. "Come on, you need to eat something." She tossed him a bag with some of his clothes in it. "I'll be back. I'm gonna go get my car." "Wait!" he called. She stopped and turned to him. "Am I a vampyre? Did you kill me?" "Yes. You've been unconscious for three days. And now, we're gonna go to the club for a bite, then we're going to see my boss." OOC: Sorry, BB. Had to keep this thing moving.

OOC: I was wondering that myself. Also, Cecilia still has her puppy, backpack, and lacrosse stick. Wow, she must look a little odd with all that. IC: Cecilia simply stared back at him, shifting the things in her arms. "Well, I've never thought as myself as an annoyance before. It's just that everyone else has been running from me. I need to talk to someone. You at least seemed like a nice person. You wouldn't happen to have..." She trailed off. Maybe she shouldn't mention these powers to him. Something was very odd about him. He wasn't like everyone else. "Were you going to say anything else? You're wasting more of my time." "No, but if you need a ride somewhere, I have a car." He considered this for a moment. "No, I have much more important things to do." "Umm, okay." Cecilia turned and left, heading back to her car. She put everything back in and drove away. She past town after town, seeing barely anyone. She was driving through another big city. There was someone standing outside the remains of a dry dock. She got out again, this time taking only her weapons (OOC: this includes her lacrosse stick. Well, it could be a weapon!). "Hi," she said hesitantly. "my name's Cecilia. What's yours?" OOC: Okay, you're turn, InuyashaDeamon. You wanted to meet someone. Here I am.

Xaphania laughed at the changeling. Guys are so cute when they're angry! She flew away, looking for Chance again. When she couldn't find him, she decided to visit Old Kai. She found him sitting on a hill, reading a comic. "Hello, Old Kai!" she said as she landed. "Do you know where Chance is?" "There's a new evil and he's supposed to be gathering you. Obviously, he's been slacking off." "Hmm, new evil? Would it have anything to do with a changeling named Damien with a really bad temper? I just met him! If he got rid of the horns or spikes, whatever they are, he would be really cute!" Old Kai's eyes bugged. "Bye for now! I think Chance is nearby!" She flew off again. There he was just ahead, with Sulphy and Sakura. "Hey, Chance! Slow down! Wait for me!" She caught up quickly. "Old Kai just told me about this new evil. And I meant this changeling named Damien. He was kind of cute!" Everyone's eyes bugged. "What is with you? Can't I think someone is cute for once?" Chance sighed. "Xaphania, he's this new evil, or at least part of it. Besides, he has a very bad temper. I'm sure he's not your type." She shrugged. "So, what do we do now?"
