Welcome to Gaia! ::

Sa'Vinitta looked at her and nodded his head. "As you wish." he said. He set her down on her feet. "But I warn you, Camaris is going to complete the transformation and he may not be able to reverse the effects, and I may not be able to stop him. It was him who asked me to get you out of there." he told her. He turned around and looke out of the room. Camaris, I wish you the best of luck, you will be needing it. he thought to himself.

I sit down on the floor, my eyes still closed. This next change was not as physical as the other, but more of the mind. It will alter my minds control over my muscles and reflexes, greatly shortening the time it takes my body to react. Reacting on the slightest thought will increase my bodys speed ten fold, but at the possible cost of losing my mind and tearing my body apart from the strain. I feel my body quiver as rage and frustration pushes back every thought, value, and memory that will not aid me in the aproaching struggle. Rena grins knowing what I was doing. "You know that you may kill yourself by doing this." she said. I smile as I analize her voice. She was confident that I would lose. Very confident in fact. "If my death is the price I have to pay to erase the terror and destruction you have, and will continue to bring upon humanity, then it is a price I will most gladly pay." I told her. I open my eyes. The change is complete. I close my hand around the hilt of my sword as I stand up and remove the tattered remains of my shirt from my body. "Lets finally end this rediculus struggle." I said. She nodded. "Do lets." she said.

Sa'Vinitta watched her. He wasn't sure if she was telling him to shut up or not. By the way she said it he was pretty sure she wasn't talking to him, but he didn't know who else she could be talking to. Everything has been so confusing and complicated since Camaris woke him up that sometimes he whished he remained asleep.

We just stood there stareing at each other for what seemed like forever, each of us waitng for the other to make their move. There, a slight flick of her right wrist. Dust fell from the wall on her right. Thats it, thats her trick. I look closly at the space between her wrist and the wall. A thin piece of string was attached to her wrist and stretched all the way to and into the wall. A closer inspection made me see that there was actually many strings on both of her wrists. In our fight she must and woven a intricate web of those strings throughoiut the enitre room. But what exactly was she planning on doing with them. I carefully look around, makeing sure she didn't realize that I noticed the strings. I can't see any of them, but I can clearly see them on her wrists. I roll my head around, makeing it appear that I was cracking my neck. I bring my shoulders backwards in a motion that would make it appear I was cracking my back. I shake out my right leg and stomp it down on the floor. The dust on the floor kicked up a bit and I caught a breif glimpse of some of the strings. I do the same with my left leg. The strings were all around me and her. The were even between us. I find it more than a little odd that she was able to weave this web without me noticeing. I must have run into some of the strings at some point. But why was it that I didn't feel any of them. This was all getting very strange and complicated. I guess the only way I'm going to find out what she is using the strings for is to carry out this fight. I just have to make it appear that I aven't noticed anything. Nows the time I make my move.

Rena kicks me off her and I slide across the floor with what felt like a couple cracked ribs. She picked her sword off the floor as she stood. I could see the anger in her eyes as she walked towards me. I swing my leg up, knocking her sword from her hand and onto the floor. Before she got the chance to grab it I kicked it into the room and past Romero. I wish I could say it was planned, but Ray could use it if she chose to. Rena turned back to me and shot her hand out, enclosing my throat. She squeezed as she lifted me from the ground, her strength seemed to grow tenfold since I plowed her down. She threw me down the hall. I couldn't stop myself. I folded my wings close to my body and carefully stuck out a hand. I grabbed hold of one of the posts of the railing. It stopped my flight, but also dislocated my shoulder. I look up to see Rena charging at me. ~Sa'Vinitta. I want you to get down the stairs and grab my sword. Then imeddiatly rush back to Rae.~ I sent to him. I stand up and flail my arm out, popping my shoulder back into place. I see a blur coming out of the room and descended over the railing. ~I can't get back up with you adn Rena blocking the path. It's also good to see your wits are back.~ Sa'Vinitta sent to me. Rena reaches me and throws her fist out. I catch it and alter our positions, placing myself in front of the railing. I let go of her fist and instantly crouch down. At the same instant, she swung her foot, barely missing me on my way down. I jump up, doing a back flip and land a foot under her chin. I flip over the railing and land on my feet and one hand. Rena quickly recomposes her self and leaps over the railing. ~The way is clear, now go.~ I sent to Sa'Vinitta. Out of the corner of my eye I watch him dash up the stairs.

Sa'Vinitta steps to the side and lets the knives fly by. Out of the corner of his eye he sees Rae drop. He rushes over and carfeully sets her up against the wall. He swears when he notices fresh blood staining her bandages. There was no fresh cloth any where in the room so he gets up and runs to the linen closet. He grabs a handfull of sheets and runs back to the room without bothering to shut the door. He tears the cloth into strips and, hoping she doesn't regain consciousness before he's done, begins carefully peeling the old bandages off her. When he finished he eased her back against the wall. Drawing his sword he layed against the wall next to her. Regardless of wht she says, he's not letting her fight next time.

Sa'Vinitta cautiously peered over the railing, silently wondering why Camaris and Rena weren't doing anything. He glances at the sleeping form of the boy, Sarusan he remembered Camaris callign him, laying on the floor. He realizes that he probably should have stayed with Rae, but he wondered why he didn't here any fighting and went to investigate. Besides, Sarusan is now a vampire and would need to feed when he woke up. Seeing how Sa'Vinitta could only carry one person, he took Sarusan. This way he can watch him when he wakes up.

We just stared at each other, neither of us knowing what to do. We weren't locked in mental combat, which knowing Rena was suprising. Her right ear twitched. I mentally grin. Her right ear always twitches when she's thinking. The question now is when she was going to move. We have no weapons so I tighten my fists. Her ear twichted again and she lunged. She threw a right hook towards my face, but I moved my head and dodged. She flung her knee upwards into my stomach. Her arms began flailing, almost too fast to follow. I accepted every punch, carefully moving my feet towards hers while she concentrated on me. She let up slightly and I made my move. I hooked my foot behind hers and got it out from under her. She began to move backwards, but I grabbed her arm. I balled up my right fist and drew it back. Tightening my grip on her arm I drew her in towards me and punched out with my fist. With the combined momentum of my moving fist and her moving head, my fist slammed into her face with so much force as to shatter nearly every bone. She staggered backwards, but I refused to let up. While she was stunned I continued to slam punch after punch into her body. It didn't matter if it glanced or was a direct hit. As long as she kept moving backward it worked in my favor. I kept her in a backward motion toward a corner. Suddenly she lashed out and wrapped her arms around my waist. I pushed down on her arms, but was unable to get her off. I begin to flap my wings and lift myself, and her, into the air. I slammed my knees into her ribcage as we ascended repetetivly. It got to where my wing tips were brushing agians t the ceiling. I began slamming my elbows into her head as well as continuing to slam my knees into her ribcage. Nothing worked. I grab her hair and lifted her head to look at me. Her face was covered in blood. Her nose smashed. She couldn't see through all the blood welling up in her eyes. But I felt no pitty. She put me through too much. I saw too much of her carnage to have any feelings of pitty whne it came down to this beast before me. The angert took its hold again. I balled up my fist and slammed it into her face again, and again, and again. Her grip relented, but I did not. I kept pounding, and pounding. Before I knew it I started screaming as I slammed my fist into her face over and over and over. My fist turned red with the blood that has been coated on it, but I kept pounding. Her body went limp and my hand went numb, but I kept pounding. Blood spatered all over myself, the ceiling, and the floor but I kept pounding. Memories of my family, my wife, Marya, Kira, My friends throughout the years that she took so much pleasure in slaughtering. All rthese merories only served to fuel the fire of my anger. I kept pounding even after her face was unregonizable. I faintly heard Sa'Vinitta screaming at me to stop, but My rationality was already gone. I knew she wasn't dead. I've only been pounding her face. No way was she dead. Unconcious yes, but not dead. My fist hasn't even ouched her brain. "Camaris. Her vampires ar here." Sa'Vinitta screamed. That got my attention and I dropped the limp form of Rena. I turned around and saw what must of been all of Rena's genetically enhanced vampires, for there were too many to count. Without any second thoughts or remorse for my brutality I flew into the ranks of the vampires. I knew Rena wasn't dead, but I didn't care. She couldn't fight back anymore, but these knew enemys could.
