Looking at Veraka he raised a brow seeing the lizard" Bout time you showed up. I thought you decided to go play in a cell." Chuckling slightly he looked around" Well we do have blankets of sorts don't we?" He jested back" I mean I'm sure we could find chains to hold you down and let her have fun. And can't a couple drow have a moment's peace especially since you and her are gonna be like two horemonal children trying to kill each other... Gods help us if you two have children."

Inrii tho not fully asleep sense Zarstra enter and lay next to her.
"[i:1ct2zh77][color=red:1ct2zh77]i knew you'd be ok[/color:1ct2zh77][/i:1ct2zh77]," the lizard said, "[i:1ct2zh77][color=red:1ct2zh77]tho i come to find u like this? i'm gunna have to get after him[/color:1ct2zh77][/i:1ct2zh77]," she joked with Inrii, one that she was injured and two not quite [i:1ct2zh77]clothed[/i:1ct2zh77]. but she was very happy to be back with the drowess.
then she answered back to the ranger, "[i:1ct2zh77][color=red:1ct2zh77]naw, i thought i'd go exploring[/color:1ct2zh77][/i:1ct2zh77]." the lizard spent too much time around inrii.

Inrii was about to retort but let it go. what could she say really. tho she guessed some little friendly war between the two males.
"blanket's big enough for two," she quipped to the ranger.
then her demoner changed like a tide. she knew that presence. and her anger hadnt gone away, hadnt been released. thru all the pain of the cracked ribs, and other injuries Inrii made her self sit up, the cloth fell away from her form, and she didnt care that she wasnt dressed. her eyes were blazing crimson of anger. had she all her strength and magical reserves, no doubt the room would have been filled with fire.
Inrii struggled to get up, tho she didnt show it and launched herself at the fey'ri.

Zarstra just moved to the side stunned.

((thats just great, im gunna fight naked...!?!

what every mans dream

))

Watching the scene he chuckled some hearing her" I'll have to take you up on that sometime." He quipped back quickly. Watching her as soon as she was up he was already moving to grab her leg to keep her from going for a cat fight." You know it'd be more fair if you were fully healed. Veraka keep your girlfriend back before this whole place goes up in flames."

(this will be quick till veraka replies so i can better respond.)

Inrii managed to brace for a small impact (this time since last time she was under sleep poison) as she fell. she felt arms wrap around her lower half, legs grappled. she pulled to continue on after the demon, his arms moving to hold her around the waist and keep her from injuring herself. but that streak in her showed up majorly, for Inrii was stubborn and determined. it was found quick, she was hard to hold back (tho possible...the lightweight)

He didn't hold back in pulling her away and all but keeping her down even if it meant pinning her down or holding her in fashions that were far less than decent. He so knew there were going to be repercussions from this and he all but glared at the ranger" Yes we would like our own room please." he said deadpan sarcasm.

Veraka shook his head, then retorted; "oh, I think there'll be time for that later," he sneered back, a grin plastered to his face; "blankets, huh? Not a bad idea," he chuckled back at the ranger. The fey'ri had to smile at this remark, twirling a

At Zek's hormonal children comment, Neriah spoke up; "Maybe, but maybe not; at least we'll have [b:1hedbzxe]fun[/b:1hedbzxe] while we do so." This comment drew a raised eyebrow from Veraka, and a low growl from Aurora. Neriah didn't care; she liked it when sarcasm was traded off, whether it be at her expense or anothers.

"CHILDREN!?" Veraka exclaimed, flabbergasted that Zek would even go that far.
"Gods, Zek; younglings, in the life I lead; unsuitable for kids," Veraka said throwing up his hands in exasperation.

Neriah looked at the ranger with a mixture of confusion and desire. She had never in her entire life envisioned herself as a mother. To have someone to care for, to watch over; to have someone to love her as a lover and mother to their children. She didn't know what to think; would this Veraka really love her as a person, and not some object or love-hate toy, like in her past.
She felt something well up inside her that she'd never felt before. However, that emotion was lost the instant that Inrii lunged for her in an effort to try and strangle the fey'ri.

Neriah gritted her teeth, her fiendish blood fueling her potent rage and seething anger. She too lunged at Inrii, trying to find a way to vent her outrage.
But then, two armored huge, muscled arms wrapped around her waist and chest and pulled her back.

Before the words left the rangers mouth, Veraka had a grip and now grappled with Neriah, keeping her away from a fuming Inrii. He didn't understand what had provoked her into attacking Inrii. He gritted his teeth as she thrashed at him, giving him a good rake across the face. THe aasimar took the blow stoically, and continued to hold the fey'ri down, his sheer strength and massive frame capable of doing just that.
"Is this how you want to be seen!?!" he shouted at the fey'ri.

Neriah stopped for a split second, wondering why he had even stopped to consider her wellfare, and what others, people, whom had every right, to fear her and hate her. Why then, did this aasimar even care, she wondered.

Inrii was down and held there tho she was still trying to go after Neriah. the ranger was nearly on top pinning her as his arms her around her tiny waist. Inrii grumbled under her breath. had she not been after the fey'ri she might have laughed at the scene.
she wiggled as much as she could, but was tiring quickly, her injuries too much to ignore any longer. movement stopped and heavy yet shallow breathing was heard from the drowess, her hair rising and falling from her face.
"and i should just let it go after all this," she said thru clinched teeth, "you and her are in this. you caused this mess," the last statement directed to Neriah.
Inrii wasn’t gunna forget her ‘o so lovely’ treatment here.

Zarstra stayed in the back unsure what to do. and without spells there wasnt much in the form of direct offense to do. she slunk around behind just in case she had to get involved. tho the guys looked like they had it, for the most part. but the lizard was surprised Inrii hadnt lashed out at the one holding her down.

((im sorta laughing at this scene as i play it in my head))

(( yeah that makes two of us))

He looked at Neriah and shook his head" Yeah I bet you would. I don't want to hear anything from the two of you. You do not want to get me in a disgruntled mood." He said flatly. At Veraka's comment" With your upbringing Veraka, anything is possible." Looking at Inrii he glared at her" Now stay down! You two can kill each other later. Vent your fury towards Alya. When we're done here then you can can screech it over. Enough both of you, and stop acting like children. Both of you were betrayed and sold out. So enough."

Inrii smarted off, tho it was not so much in anger as to keep from doing anything. she was in no position to do much anyway. she just narrowed her eyes at Neriah. and with a final, "fine," she stopped. she had patience when needed. she would bide her time.
she slightly turned to try and face her 'captor', whom was in an awkward position.
with a smirk and slight sarcasm, "having fun? and plan on letting me go?"

Watching her when she finally settled down he smirked a bit and shrugged" I am actually... and I don't know if I want too." he mused back before moving to sit next to her, ready to keep her down again if he had too.

"Clever ranger," Veraka grunted in return as he kept a raging Neriah back from Inrii, "uhh, very clever. With my upbringing, you say"

The fey'ri by this time had stopped struggling in the aasimar's iron grip and was looking at Inrii with hatred bred from a lifetime of being loathed and feared, taunted and tormented.

"Why should I!?!" she screamed back; "Besides trying to actually help you out, why should I just 'sit back and watch', just sit back and take more crap just because someone doesn't like my presence?"

Veraka wasn't sure how he should respond, but something about Zek's statement about both of them being betrayed and hurt in some way rung a bell. The aasimar turned her around and stared the fey'ri in her red-crimson glowing eyes; "would you just accept the fact that someone gives a damn about your actions and isn't in the mood for your suicidal antics."

"fine with me, stay. but thats gunna be a long night then. like trying to tame a wild horse."
hearing neriah she snorted derisively. as if a female drow among Vhaeraun's on the surface didnt have to deal with such problems. at least she wasnt whining bout it.
after he slid off, she sat up and dusted herself off, not bothering to cover herself at this point.
"any chance yall found my things?" she asked as she started to stand, but became lightheaded and fell back.

Zarstra just kinda stood there not sure that to do. when things began to settle she made her way back to the blanket shaking her head at Inrii and her smart mouth.

(edit: my comment just doesnt sound right by the way...just sayin. it could go a couple ways there...)

Veraka looked Inrii solid in the eye, his own silver orbs blazing. If his gaze didn't get his point across, him saying "can it," did. He decided to let Neriah cool off; though for some reason, when he unwrapped his arms, she didn't release herself from his embrace.

Veraka decided to not worry about it as the fey'ri released herself from him; when he looked over, Veraka saw Aurora looking at him with that smirking expression.
"What?" he asked in an innocent tone.

The great winter wolf just shook her head and went back to resting.

At Inrii's question, Veraka pulled out her mask, and said "you mean this?" extending the mask to her.

Zekafae · Post by **Zekafae** » Thu Jul 22, 2010 5:44 am

He just shrugged slightly to Veraka's comment" You survived this long, I think the kids would be fine." Looking to Inrii he just gave her a wry grin, nothing good could come from it." I got the stamina and endurance. I think I could handle that and tame the wild horse." Nodding he motioned to the nearby chest" They made if very tempting for you to somehow get your gear it seems."

Inrii was caught before she hit hard and helped to the makeshift bed. heard but ignored Veraka's 'command.' something was off. this female who attacked and intended to kill them and he was taking her side. no, there was more going on. she must have some powerful spell over him. that or using something to her advantage.
looking to the chest as her head was carefully set down she laughed.
"they had some confidence didnt they."
she wrapped the soft cloth around herself as her head cleared. she took the mask and set it beside her. the pain was returning with her temper beginning to calm. leaning against what she could she sat up a bit, the cloth falling off her left shoulder enough to show the ugly wound from the attack years ago. she didnt notice or she would have been quick to pull the cover back up.
"stanima? gunna take more than that to handle me." for truthfully, inrii was a spitfire!
she looked back over to Veraka and Neriah talking off to the side privately. she softly scoffed at the fey'ri, low enough that with her occupied, she didnt hear. she shook her head, not a bright idea, and leaned twords Zek to whisper.
