He smiled as she continued to address him like that. He knew she was just indulging him. No one else has, but her. As the topic of conversation grew serious about her past Darius shifted his weight and looked at the floor. "How couldn't you deserve the respect? I mean, you're you." He stumbled over his words some, "I can't see you being horrible but I wont use them." I don't want to make her mad. I'll stay here as long as I can.

"I'm me am I?" She shrugged, another smile gracing her features. "Titles are over rated sometimes. Besides, we're all family here. From my knowledge, no one calls their family member by a title. It's showing disrespect and it's impersonal." She raised a hand to ruffle his hair but remembered herself and dropped it to his shoulder, giving a slight squeeze. "Don't try to imagine me as horrible...you may have nightmares." Another laugh.

"Somehow I don't think I could have nightmares about you unless I saw something first hand. And the formalities depend on what family you come from. Some find it disrespectful to not use them." He felt oddly comforted by the squeeze. You might have nightmares about me though... "Tut tut tut, thinking those things'll only help me. So do continue." He shook the ravenous voice from his head, it's intention to eat at his humanity. He kept his eyes down and toed at the floor.

Fingers went to his chin and raised it so that his eyes were no longer downcast at the floor. "Shouldn't do that, it's bad for you neck...your wings too." The little reprieve, somewhat broken brought her to another issue that had been bugging her. "Can I ask you to accompany me on a most important task, Sir Darius." Trying to rescue the rest of the moment she played her words again.

She had raised his head up but he kept his eyes downcast for a moment, letting them switch to red and then forcing them back to amber. "Hm, it doesn't matter, I've help you can't comprehend. When he finally brought his gaze back up his eyes were bright and his grin was his own. Proper to the point of mocking he spoke, "Why yes my lady. I'm sure that I'll help you if I can and if you really need it." Like she will. He tilted his head to the side and cracked it loudly, "It's too late for my neck, and I don't know about my wings."

"That sounded...painful." Her hand went to her own neck then dropped as she turned and gave a tug on his wing in motion for him to follow. Aura felt bad for asking him...but she was having a hard enough time doing it herself. Their path led them to a hallway. A deep gash could be seen on the right wall, and a few spots, puddles, and streaks of azure and red blood spotted the floor in the odd darkness of the hall, espcially near it's end. "I need you to get something for me Darius." She came to a stop at the entrance of the hall as she let him catch up and observe the conditions down the hall. "You don't have to do this for me Darius...I know it sounds foolish...but I'm a little afraid to go down that hall myself."

Cymarron had been trying something to amuse himself, and to see if he could do it. presently he was on the ceiling, claws dug into the stonework, hanging above Aura and the one called Darien. he gave the old hunting growl, the one that sounded like it came form everywhere, and them dropped on them both, knocking everyone on the ground with a purr.
"Assassins better than thieves at stealth."
He grinned, nevermind it was the first time he mentioned what he was used for by his former master.

He followed after Aura, tilting his head to the other side getting another crack. When he came up right behind her he looked around the desserted hallway and noticed a gash mark in the wall and what had to be blood everywhere according to the smell. "What happened? How could you be afraid..." He trailed off and just left it alone. It's not your business dumbass. He thursted for the blood and on a weird twist Cymarron fell on them, distracting him long enough to keep calm. He landed on the floor, arm and wing flailing out to land in some of the sticky mostly dried up blood. "What the hell? Hello Cymarron. So you like creative his too? And you've got an advantage being feline! Cheater." He stood up and quickly offered the non bloody hand to Aurahkah, "Oh and what's it you want?"

Shin blinked, fox ears twitching.
Crashing....banging....
she shook her head, and tugged a hair tie from her pocket, pulling her hair up in to a pony tail as she trotted down the halls, following the general direction of the sound.

Aura shook her head, mind trying frantically to catch up to what had just transpired. A purr clued her into the culprit and she looked back to Cymarron with a smirk. "Oh really now...don't get cocky..." She took hold of Darius' hand, pulling herself up from the floor she brushed herself off. " Thank you Darius. And interesting way of greeting people you have there Cymarron." A smile to the cat before looking back to Darius. "A fight...and yes I can be afraid...believe it or not." She bent down and picked up what looking like a spiked piece of broken gold. "In that battle, my sais were shattered and strewn all down the hall. I need the pieces so I can remake them...you think you could pop down there and grab them for me, please?"

Nodding slowly he looked down the bloodied hall. I shouldn't do this. Blood's not good for a budding demon. But I've got to show that I can handle it and wont be a problem. He looked at the piece of broken gold. Nodding and grinning at her he closed his red eyes. "I still don't quite believe it but no problem." Turning away, the boy started off picking up broken pieces, finding lots of little shards and a hilt to one of the sai. Blood tastes good doesn't it? There're vampires after all, so what if they need it to survive? His eyes matched the human blood on the floor as he picked up another shard. As he's careless at times the shard made a small cut on his finger which after eyeing it he stuck his finger in his mouth and sucked off some of the blood. Mmmmm, There's must taste better than mine. He shook his head bringing himself back again as he picked up the hilt of the other sai, and confident that he had all the pieces, began walking back to the group. With the boyish innocent smile he greeted them and gave the pieces to Aura. "There ya go." He fought back the demon and embraced the human opening his eyes to show the amber even as he licked the coppery tasting substance off of his lips.

She smiled to him, taking the various busted pieces from him. "Thank you Darius." Hands full, the traditional pat on the head was forwent and she placed an almost mother like kiss to his cheek. "Really." A brief look went down to the gold she was holding. "Dammit...worse than I thought..." Well she had a few options. Lotus could fix them, or perhaps Khenu could do ti for her, or she could somehow do it herself. She shook her head slightly to push away the thoughts for now and turned her attention back to those near her.

For his part, he was already down in the hall, sniffing at the blood, licking it, shivering lightly as the taste went through him. he sniffed the claw marks, snorted, and kept exploring the area. the scent of hte one called Saradin, whom he only knew by scent was all over the place. of course when he got to his blood, and gave it a taste, the sheer anger, the shadowy darkness inherent to Saradin at the time literally threw him back, clutching his head as the onrush very nearly gave the beast it's freedom, the violent nature tapping into it like a surge of power. he stayed still for a moment, a low growl reverberating in his throat, before he slowly let go of his head and shook himself.

The low hum of a truck motor whirred through the echoing depths of the forest. The pickup thrashed gently through underbrush with no regard to the already scarred paints and searched through these woods for the building that was known to be out there. Inside the cab, a young woman sat, her fingers nervously tapping the steering wheel as time stretched on forever. In the seat beside her, looking more pale than usual was a young man, blood still dabbed on his chin and a handful of stains on his shirt. In a couple more hours of hunting the driver finally found the place they had saught.
The truck pulled to a stop outside the gates of the place theyd visited once before already. "Were here Johnavon, wake up." "I know already, I can feel this place." He said, his eyes closed still as he sat with his arms still crossed. "But it feels much more... tainted now. Far more comfortable than before." The disquieting pleasure in Johnavon's words sent a shiver down Kira's spine as she openned the door to their vehicle and leaned against the truck's side. "Well, maybe they can still help you." "You Kira. No one can help me, Im here to help protect you."
