Welcome to Gaia! ::

Dradeo walked on and his stomach growled more. "I should have grabbed some food while I was at the bar."he thought to himself. But he walked on regardless. His head became light and his feet unbalanced. "Gah. I really should have gotten some food." he said as he sat down at the base of a large tree. His shirt drooped a bit, showing an odd symbol on his neck and some of his chest. His coat lay on the ground beside him and his head rested back on the tree eyes closed.

I turned my head as a new aura entered into the forest, it seemed to be that of another vampire. Weak in physical strength but strong of aura control. I smiled and disappeared into the shadows. I traveled along the shadows until I found this new aura and saw that it was that of a young vampire but now that I was closer I could sense something else within him. Demon perhaps? I followed him until he came to rest at a tree, falling with fatigue. He slept and during that I searched through his mind. I found all that I needed to know, of his mother and father, and of this 'demon' that I had sensed. He woke with a start at the sound of one of my scouts calling that he had found something. I traveled to him and he was in a brawl with another demon. "I have found another of your kind, sir!" He called as the other struck at him, "He is coming this way." I looked down at him and lashed my aura at his, "You truly are pathetic, I knew this already! If this is all the news that you bring to me than you have still not completed your charge. Begone with you." He looked down in disappointment and quickly devored his opponents essense, he them turned and ran deeper into the forest.

Dradeo laid against the tree hearing what sounded to be low mumbles, but he assumed they were words. He tried to focus, but his energy hadn't quite replinished yet. He then heard feet rustle through the leaves going at an NW angle to him decently fast. The feet weren't heavy. They traveled quite light actually. He could tell those steps familiarly. He sat for a bit longer before closing his eyes. He flashed white for an instant and stood up quickly. He popped his back once and stretched as he searched for the direction that the person had traveled in. He soon locked onto the trail that was to be followed and rushed down it huridly. As he ran the leaves seemed to swirl and dance in the wind behind him. He realized he would never catch up this way and jumped into the trees hopping from one to another each time the tree vibrating oddly and tossing him quickly to the next, speeding up the process of jumping.

Dradeo noticed an odd pattern in the footsteps and slowed down. The footsteps soon stopped and he lost all trace of the man. He came to a hault in a clearing. He sensed something odd. It wasn't chakra. It was more of a. . . a smell. It caught him odd. He knew the smell before. He realized it from his home town. He didn't know the name for it, but he knew it lingered on one of his neighboring families. You see, everyone in his village had some sort of special power. Sure his family had the most important to the town. But it didn't mean that the other families didn't have one. Every 'Clan' had one. He sniffed the air a bit more and tried to place the particular smell, but to no sucess. He the became frustrated and starting spinning his arms around in a seemingly akward manner. As his arms moved, the wind moved with it. Tossing leaves, dirt, twigs, and even small to medium sized stones in every direction. He had built up a good bit of energy, and this was a nice way for him to vent both that excess energy and his anger in the fact that he lost his only possible source of information about this forest at this point in time.

Dradeo laughed a bit. He actually had no idea where the man had gone. And he realized how akward and odd his motions must have looked. He blushed a bit, showing good blood circulation.((xD)) He stepped back and looked at the man. "Do you know anything about this forest?" he asked in his mind automatically assuming he did. A couple of other thoughts began to flow at the same time and it hurt his head a bit. He quieted it down and responded "A bit of both. . .?" he said head still a bit in pain from the thoughs.

"Hmmm?" Dradeo asked in an odd tone. It was true he had lost some memories, but could this man have actually taught him. "Stronger prey, eh? Sounds like a plan to me. From what I hear, the beasts get stronger the deeper in you get." he responded glad he had obtained more information than this person.

"Sound's good to me." he said only slightly picking it up, energy not fully returned yet. He plunged his hand into the ground for a minute and then emerged. "Its moving a bit though. We should be able to cut it off at an angle if we leave now. It is traveling a bit westward. If we go at a 25 degree intercept, we should be able to cut whatever it is off."

He smiled at the man's remark. "You don't even know the half of it" he said as the man dissapeared into the shadows. Dradeo had a very long period of time to train, and during that period, he did so vigourously. He jumped into the trees and disspeared very quickly. All that was heard was a giant 'swoosh' as the wind blew past the trees, nearly knocking them down. While travelling Dradeo wondered who this man was and also what were they about to intercept that could rank on this level, nothing to fear, but still. . .
