And the colors of her mind bleed into each other...
Silence hung heavy in the air, broken only by the soft, muffled sound of footsteps through the caves.
Teagan found herself coming to a stop after a long day of aimless wandering, sitting down on the cave floor, tucking her legs neatly underneath her. With her right hand she supported her somewhat awkward, tilted position, and with her left, she fiddled mindlessly with a lock of her hair, staring at it intently as though it was the most interesting thing she had ever seen before.
Her mind was somewhere else entirely, thinking about various things--her mothers death, Torrent, where she would sleep tonight, where she would get her next meal--the usual.
She shoved the thoughts to the back of her mind, taking in the silence.
Of course, it wasn't pure silence--there were still the little things, the sound of her breathing, the air whistling against the walls of the caves, and even softer sounds she couldn't quite place.
Teagan shifted her position then, criss-crossing her legs and resting her arms on them, fiddling her fingers absent-mindedly, wondering how long she was going to rest here for before leaving again.

After the meeting of a man, Azrael wondered around with his sister into this dark cave. His navigation skills seemed to have lead them some where completely different and now he was a bit glad it did. This place was dark...darkness like the abyss of death. Dark like the powers within his eyes. He enjoyed this Azrael wandered deeper and deeper into the cave not expecting anything else. This was a place that could be his sanctuary. A place where he could hide when ever he needed to. Azrael, forgot about everything else, his sister also as he walked in to the depths into the cave closer and closer.
Zywie began to cry silently as she and her brother entered the cave. She hated the dark, there was nothing more fearful for the dark for this child. IT reminded of her of things that shouldn't be true. Things of death and ill. Zywie wanted to leave but her brother kept going in closer and she followed. The only thing she had of comfort was a flower that was given to her earlier. It glowed in the dark but as they two went into the darkness more, the light began to fade away from this flower. Her fear was about to take over her. Something she couldn't handle at the moment.

Sometimes life seems to quiet into paralyzing silence... [/size][/i]
Teagan was suddenly aware of footsteps echoing throughout the caverns. She stood suddenly, feeling the slightest bit dizzy at her sudden movement. "Who's there?" she called daringly into the darkness.
She was greeted only by silence. "I said who's there?" she asked, louder now, her pale green eyes searching for any sign of life. Every muscle in her body was tensed, waiting to see who was there. The silence was nerve wracking.

A voice, this voice disturbed the peace of Azrael and his connection to this darkness. The person who said this sort of angered Azrael. When it was quiet, he was calm and at peace but this was broken. Azrael was pretty much mad and then let go of his sister's hand. He looked at her and with a low voice said "Im going to go see whos there, stay here. Make a shield of light ti keep you safe. Azrael left his sister and began to walk away. At first, he didn't say anything but then to respond to the yelling earlier, he called out to the cave "HELLLLOOOOO"
Zywie listened to her brother and watched him go. Tears rolled from his cheeks to the grounds as she felt alone at a peace where she feared. She was scared of a boggie man coming to eat her. She wanted to run way but didn't want to leave her brother. Listening to him she muttered these words when a magic circle appeared below her "Sun and Moon's shine combine, create the object of protection and grace.... As soon as the spell ended, a bubble appeared around Zywie with a bright light. It shined throughout the cave and rid of some of the darkness.

Just whisper, don't make a sound...
Finally, after what seemed like ages, Teagan heard a reply to her call. She hesitantly walked towards the voice.
Her wings brushed the skin of her arm, the soft feathers comforting her somewhat. After a silent debate in her mind, Teagan decided to leave them out--why bother with the pain of letting them out later if she didn't need to retract them now?
"Hello?" she called back, wondering why her heart was racing. What do I have to be afraid of? She asked herself silently, her green eyes searching the darkness.
She took another step, her foot sliding in just the wrong way that her ankle twisted and she stumbled, falling so that she was on one knee, instinctivly, her left hand shot out to break her fall. Pain shot up her arm and she winced slightly.
Teagan quickly stood, brushing a few pebbles off her knee and rubbed her forearm as if it would take away the ache.

Azrael walked closer to the cave as he heard a voice back. What made things worst was that Azrael could see the light from his sister's shield. He wanted darkness and so he went on where things were darker. AS he walked closer to the abyss, he looked around for anyone. He walked for a bit not finding anyone till he felt someone near. He didn't know who it was or what is was but he called out Helllloooo? HE yelled walking more and more into the darkness.He got to a point where he saw a figure on the floor. He thought it was someone but he didn't know.
Zywie stayed within her shield.It was all she could do. She had some comfort being in the light but was alone. This loneliness make her anxious. Where was her brother? She wanted him here. Zywie didn't want to go to the dark though. What was she suppose to do? She removed her shield and made a bright orb of light in her hand getting ready to travel within the cave.

So find out for yourself, so your ignorance will stop bleeding through...
"Who are you?" Teagan asked as soon as she saw the figure in the darkness. Might as well just cut to the chase. she thought, rolling her eyes at herself.
Her heartbeat slowed down after a moment, but the ache in her arm was still there--just not as strongly as before. She absent-mindedly looked down at her arm, looking for any signs of injury and to her satisfaction found her pale skin unmarked.
Her eyes flicked back up to whomever it was she was questioning before, waiting patiently for a response.

A small flame held its shape, flickering in the palm of a pale hand. There was a sound of quiet whistling of an obscure tune. A small spot of light followed the flame, and the light scent of ash was in the air. A tall, slim male with deep brown hair, the ends the color of fire, strolled nonchalantly through the caves. He wasn't exactly lost; he just didn't have a particular destination in mind. His golden eyes seemed to burn against his colorless skin. Almost invisible trails of smoke were drifting from his lips as he whistled, the often side effect of taking the form of a dragon.
He could just barely feel the presence of the other people inhabiting this cave. He hadn't been directly looking for anyone else, but he still knew they were there. A crooked smile played on his lips as he thought about the possibilities. What, perhaps, had brought them here, he thought to himself. He supposed he wouldn't be too mischevious; after all, he wouldn't want to frighten strangers. He did enjoy playing with fire, either way. He stopped a few feet away from the group, seeing the shadows of another light farther down into the dark caverns. He began to shift the shape of the fire, creating a tiger, a dragon, snakes in the air, leaving their shadows on the wall.

Mairead had been skipping along outside when she heard someone whistling from within. Quietly she stepped into the caves and brushed back her silvery white hair. Flame from something made illuminations on the wall, a tiger, a dragon. All very impressive. but the only thing that was present in Mairead's mind, was causing mischief. A smirk grew on her lips as she sent a strong wind through the cave, causing the flame to blow out. A slight giggle passed her lips as she wondered what the guy was thinking.

Kaiji followed his little sister into the cave. He leaned over to his sister. His lips let out a bit of laughter as well. "You and your misheif." He said with a grin. Water streamed from one of the canteens he had and into his mouth. "Ahh." He said, "Nothing like water." He stood back up straight and walked in front of his sister to make sure whoever it was wouldn't do anything to her. A stream of water flowed around his arm in a spiral, ready to be used in whichever way it needed to be.

Azrael watched as things started to get stranger and stranger by the second. He first glared down at the girl on the ground and then looked ahead of the cave. He first saw shapes of beasts amd then suddenly disappeared. He wanted to just yell at someone or something now. This place was the peace for him but now suddenly, disturbances corrupted this. The unknown darkness was now a place for the entertainment of something and Azrael just wanted to find that thing, beat it senseless to death. Azrael looked back from the direction he came from and noticed the light and instantly thought of his sister. He sighed as he didn't know what to do for now. He just waited to see what happened next. So person on the ground.... what the hell is going on.... Azrael looked down at this girl.
Zywie stopped and then looked around here. She began to cry silently as she was afraid of this unknown. She just stopped in the middle and cried and suddenly, the light she created dimmed.

Aidyn examined his hand with a frown. "Now, was that really necessary?" he asked to no one in particular. With a smirk, he snapped his fingers once, and the fire reappeared in his palm. "Time to find the little troublemaker that likes to play with my fire." He sent the fire slithering across the cavern walls in a long, thin line. Suddenly, he stopped as he felt a light dimming, and a young girl's sadness. Deciding to play the nice stranger, he sent his swiveling fire down onto the ground, forming around her in a circle to give her what he called "artificial light."
He peered around the corner, the smirk still on his face. He wanted to see her reaction. Often times, it was quite the unexpected. But he had come to expect the unexpected. Other people had complicated emotions. He didn't want to engage in all of that fruitless nonsense. He just enjoyed being the observer, sitting back and watching the show that was the lives of others.

Mairead let out a giggle again and sent another gust through the cave. It caused the fire around the ground to sputter and spark. Slowly the temperature grew hot in the room, very hot. It seemed as though the fire was causing it, but how could it? After all it was only a small bit of fire. She spotted the fire wielder and looking up at Kaiji she had a face of mischief. What could she do this time? She would think up of something, soon enough. Running her small fingers through her white hair she started to twirl on chunk around her finer. Showing that she was thinking of something to do.

Kaiji smiled. His sister knew how to really cause trouble. Not that he didn't. Then the room began to get hotter. This began to get him uncomfortable. Heat in general wasn't something he liked. He noticed Mairead twirling her finger in her hair. 'This is going to be fun.' He thought with a grin. His eyes went everywhere to see if there was fire in the room causing it. A little of the water around him went into his mouth. He liked to keep hydrated. "What are you planning?" He asked her, knowing it would be fun.

Jessi can't thinka something to write here, so lookit mah big writing! LOOK AT IT! I COMAND THEE! Alright. I'm good. Now I'll write something...  Teagan followed the footsteps and voices she heard echoing in the caverns. When she finally came to the group of people--all strangers to her--she watched them for a moment in the shadows, wondering if it would be suicidal to approach them. Lately, that was the way things were going for her--nothing seemed to be safe. After a few moments of silent debating, Teagan breathed in deeply, almost as though she was reassuring herself, and walked over to the others, a guarded smile on her face.[/color]
