The Yule Ball

"I trust you anytime"
*closes eyes*

* smiles and gives jason a kiss on the cheek* "okay,...follow me" *takes jason by the hand and leads him away form the dance, outside and away from the school toward the forbbien forest*

*walks trying not to trip*
*grin on face and heart pounding at the excitement

* walks close by jason still holding his hand and making sure he wont fall or trip* *walks into forbidden forest and continues deeper into the dark woods*

*feels the cool aura from the trees and smile widens*

*once in center of woods, helps jason sit on the ground* "open your eyes" *shows him the center of the drak, creepy, dangerous forbidden forest*

*Grin widens*
"never been here before"
*looks around and smiles at Raven*

* sits down beside jason* " your not scared?"

*smiles at RG*
"are you?"

" no....not yet"....."maybe if some creature jumps out"

"its certainly dark enough"
"perhaps my familiar will liven the mood"
*wistles and minutes later snake arrives*

*eyes glisten* " A SNAKE!!!.....I love snakes!"

" I did not fully acquaint him with you during the party, he was rather busy"
"this is Rex, my familiar"
"bond to me as i to him"
*snake nods in response*
"he is quite intelligent and can understand most speech"

"oh, he is very interesting"...."may I pet him?"

*Snake nods and curls up on RG's lap*
*birds caw and owls hoot as we sit in the middle of the forbidden forest*

*pets the snake, but becomes alarmed at the birds* *looks into sky but only sees darkness* "did you hear that......the brids"

*hears birds and is alarmed at Rg's voice*
"ya i heard em"
"what exactly lives in this forest?"
"I've been in evil forests but never this one."

"you dont want to know what lives here......this forest is home to some of the foulest creatures"

*hugs RG*
"now i'm scared"

*hugs back shaking*......"um....." *glup*.......*covers eyes with hands*
