Fox demons Vs Wolf Demons rp.

Corina grinned as she grabbed his hand, pulling him away from the high tower. She stopped when they had walked a number of yards from the tower. She looked up the tower with a smile on her face and then turned back to Dek for a moment and nodded in the same direction that which they came from.

"The high tower is where the wolven commander is located. From the tower he has a great view of almost the entire base, along with most of the boarder lines of the outer base lines."

She nodded at Dek before continue walking. Maybe it was to the better that Dek was coming with her at her duty. Well, it could not be entirely called a duty. More an inofficial obligation, as she were under the command of no-one. Heading along the barrack quarter, she turned back to Dek, grabbing his hand once more. She did not want to loose him here, as it could probably be the last thing she would see of him.

"This is the barrack quarters, where each of the common soldiers dwell. I recommend you not to wander away on your own. It might be a foolish move, and by that I mean even more foolish than knocking on the wolven door as a fox"

She turned around and grinned at Dek, followed by a gentle smile. She did not want to tell him where they were heading. Mentioning the name 'Carbo' would change things. It would be to the best if he met Carbo without knowing that Carbo was Carbo. Carbo was not the person she were going to meet anyway. Sky was the one she wished to see, but Carbo was most likely with her. Hopefully Corina would get the chance to explain to Sky what was the deal, before one of them slipped and introduced the wolf that had killed Dek's brother.

<<GHA! so lost... recaps, plz??>>

[Nothing have happened 🙂 Just one conversation after the other 😄 The caravan has been given permission to wander trough the land of wolves 😄]

<<oh thank god... thanks, C.C. !>>

Kairi awoke and looked around, her eyes wide with terror... she'd heard something coming, but didn't know what. Rather than cause another false alarm, she allowed Champion to remain sleeping and climbed to the rooftops to take a look around. Nothing. She shrugged and yawned. "Must've been me imagination..."

~champ is snoring~

Kairi jumped back down into the building, sword drawn and creeped over to the only other entrance, her intention to keep any intruders away being her driving purpose at the moment. She reached out for the door and lunged forward, though fell down the flight of stairs since no one was there, landing at the base with a loud thud. "Ow..." She groaned, rubbing her head with her free hand. Suddenly, an ominous shadow overtook her. As she looked up, she fumbled for the right words, though only one thing managed to slip out. "Champion! RUN!!!"

"The high tower is where the wolven commander is located. From the tower he has a great view of almost the entire base, along with most of the boarder lines of the outer base lines." Corina said with an air of playfulness in her voice.

Dek looked back towards the building he had just come from. He took a mental note of what it looked like on the inside, and how far away it was from the gate to the Wolf Kingdom. After all, you never know when you'll have to make a quick exit the next time you come somewhere...But at this point, Dek made sure to stay close to Corina, for fear of losing himself in the vast kingdom, to never be seen again. Even now as he was being escorted, the passersby still threw him horrible looks and snarled at him. He shook himself off. As if she was reading his thoughts, Corina grabbed hold of Dek's hand.

"This is the barrack quarters, where each of the common soldiers dwell. I recommend you not to wander away on your own. It might be a foolish move, and by that I mean even more foolish than knocking on the wolven door as a fox" Corina said, a smile brought to her lips. Dek shrugged.

"Well it couldn't be that dangerous, I got here alright, barely a scratch on me." Dek said matter o'factly. He looked over towards a few wolven soldiers and flexed, and was recieved by a load howl of disgust, and a plate of food being thrown at him. He ducked low and moved to Corina's otherside.

"Ehheh.......so uh...you were saying?" Dek said, his voice cracking as he spoke.

While the tour continued, Dek still took his mental notes. The captain would want to know where everything was, and Dek was getting it all. But during this trek, he wondered where his final stop would be. Who were they going to meet? He decided he'd wait to find out, and held his tongue. There was also the mystery of Corina as well. Why had such a smart creature joined up with the wolves? What was her role in the kingdom? Dek was determined to find out.

"So tell me Corina...why is it that someone with your demon background has chosen to join up in this war of wars? Don't you have a family...maybe a special someone waiting back home?" Dek tried not to sound too interested in the "special someone" part, but he listened eagerly anyways.

*bump*

Corina turned and smiled. She looked him into the eyes before giving him the answer. Since she was quite devoted to her work she wanted to have him hear her clearly. She walked up to a bench and pushed him down on it. As she made sure he sat, she sat down next to him.

"You see, Dek! When I was born the feude between wolf and fox had since long been going on. As I grew up, my relatives and friends spoke a lot of the feude and the wars that was going on all over the world. I never liked fighting and I will always have it as last resort. I therefore educated myself to become a peacebringer. Best in class if I may add"

She grinned briefly before continue.

"You may be thinking I am an ally of the wolves. That is information incorrect. I am just as well an ally of the foxes! I have no papers to prove my position as a piece of paper can be both manipulated and broken. No words speak more truth than the words that come from your tongue. If my words by tongue is not enough then I have nothing to add to this war. However I wish for only peace and that is the reason you have me interfearing in these dealings. I wish for what is best to both sides."

She stopped and smiled, looking at Dek once more. He sure seemed curious of her and she kept talking about things that probably were of very little interest in him. To spare him extra details, she just told him what she suspected he wished to hear.

"I grew up with my education. I lived alone for absolute privacy and focus which pretty much meant I was leaving my family behind. I considered solving this war of higher priority than any family. Of course that also means I do not have a 'special someone' as you gently placed the words. My family understand what it is that I do and they support me fully"

She smiled at him, remaining seated. She decided they might as well take things cool for a minute. Sky had her quarters not far from here.

After Dek had asked the question, he saw Corina's eyes spark. He knew that she had been anxious to fully explain to him what it was that she did in this kingdom. Corina turned towards Dek and flashed a bright smile. She gestured towards a small bench towards the side of the dirt road and Dek took his cue to sit down on it. She then sat to Dek's left.

She began to explain to Dek about how when she was a young girl, the long-lasting fued between fox and wolf had already started, and was talked about greatly in even her kingdom with her family. She told him that she did not like fighting, and thought of it more as a last resort. This sparked Dek's interest, as he felt the same way. He was awed by her peace-ful ways, much like he himself was in his own kingdom. The only difference was that she belonged to a kingdom of a different demon race. Seemingly reading his mind, she spoke up again.

This time she told him that she wasn't exactly aligned with the wolves, but it was merely her base of operations. She favored no race over the other, and only used her position in the kingdom to help promote peace. Dek thought that was very admirable of her.

Dek's interest peaked when she told him that she had grown up for the most part alone - focusing on her studies and kingdom history while promoting nonviolence in the Wolf Kingdom. Dek couldn't help but feel a pang of sorrow when she told him that meant she had spent alot of her time away from her family. Alot like Dek....except different circumstances....

But he also felt remorse when she told him that she did not in fact have a significant other. It would probably be hard for someone in her position to find a mate, as she lived in a kingdom that was very focused on their "bloodline" and "Wolf Pride."

She finished her story and smiled at Dek another bright smile. He didn't know what to say at this point, so he simply decided to smile back. They sat like this for several minutes in quiet, minus every few minutes that another wolf would walk by and shout some obscenity at Dek. Embarassed, he stood up and brushed himself off.

"Um...I would like...offer to get you some food or something at this point...but i'm pretty sure if I bought anything it would be....defiled." He said with a smile.

Corina smiled gently and looked at him where he stood. She was flattered by the fact that he was willing to get her some food and surprised by his choice of words. Why would food that he brought be defiled? She knew why he said it but at the same time she did not. Sure he was a wolf and she was of a different demon kin, but the owls had never looked down at anyone. With a grin on her face she shook her head and got up from the bench.

"Defiled? What? You forgot to wash your hands?"

She smiled gently before continuing.

"I am flattered and would love to have some food with you, Dek, but as you might recall me saying I have a certain thing I need to deal with before we can do anything else. After we have met the people that I seek, we can take that food offer of yours into larger consideration."

She ran her hand trough her hair, moving it away from her eyes. She grabbed his hand steady and her staff tight with her other hand as she started walking in the direction of Sky's quarters. At the moment she just wished to get it over with, as she had never been offered food by a handsome male before. A fox, never-the-less.

Corina had always been an admirer of foxes. Their tricky and sharp minds, that was almost as tolerant to intelligence, information and details as the owl mind. Of course this could be a fox trick, luring her to their side by bribing with food. One could never be too sure with foxes, but since she had lived a life alone, she for once was ready to take the chance.

She looked back and into the eyes of Dek with a great, gentle smile on her face as she kept walking.

~champion wakes up some, blinking, she realizes what she heard, she stands, taking off, where she has no clue~

"Defiled? What? You forgot to wash your hands?"

Corina said, giving Dek a nice warm smile. Dek returned the smile with a confused look. He scratched his head breifly and then thought it would be best to simply smile back. In his head he thought to himself "hmmm well I'm pretty sure if I bought anything here they would spit in it or something...seeing as how I'm a fox." But he brushed the thought away. There was something very interesting in Corina that Dek seemed drawn too. Then he felt foolish for giving her an oafish grin, and cleared his throat.

Dek frowned as Corina denied his advances for food. She was right though, they did have a place to go - a place that Dek was keen on getting too asap. Why did he invite her to some food? He had work to do. He shook it off. He couldn't help himself - she was a looker. He flicked a batch of dust from his shoulder and pointed onward with his thumb.

"So, if we have somewhere to go, let's hurry up and get there. I am indeed starving and would very much like to see what kind of grub I can scour up here in Wolfworld." Dek said, beginning to turn away from Corina. He stopped when Corina reached up and grabbed his hand. He looked at her and she smiled back, and began walking back on their original path. He hoped there would be something of great importance that he could report back to the Fox Captain. The man who had allowed Dek to enter the Wolf Kingdom in the first place. Come to think of it, he should probably head back to camp as soon as this business was finished. The Captain might think that Dek had failed in his mission - or even *gulp* was killed by the wolves on arrival. Dek shook the bad thoughts from his head and continued on.

"So...where exactly are we going? Is it someplace with a view? I'd like to get a good view of the kingdom - I won't exactly be able to take a tour in this place again anytime soon." Dek said, his hands behind his head in a relaxed walk. He turned towards Corina and winked.

Corina listened carefully to every word he spoke. Her smile turned into a minor grin of disappointment when he appeared to only want to eat with her because he was on the edge of starvation. Keeping her face turned in the direction they were heading she forced a smile back on her lips, a smile that would in her mind be considered a lie. Almost turning a bit annoyed, she gripped Dek's hand tighter as they walked.

"Oh, your just hungry. Well I am sure we can get you something to eat around here. And you are most likely better of not knowing my task in details. For your own sake and safety. The place we are visiting has a view but not much of a view really. I can take you to a place that has a most excellent view after we are done with what I am supposed to do. I go there often. It is beautiful!"

She this time did not turn back when speaking to him, but at all time kept her eyes on the path. Coming to a number of stairs, she just kept on walking as if she had been there millions of times before, even though this was her first time around here. She walked past door after door until finally stopping by a door, looking pretty much like the other doors.

"This is the residence of Sky. It is her that I wish to speak to about a certain event that might take place."

Corina knocked the door gently and put her head against it to listen for footsteps or sound of different kind. She knew the wolves were not happy having a fox wandering around the city, but something made Corina think that Sky could look at it from a more peaceful view.

Returning from his long walk around the base, Spirit shut the door to his quarters behind him and entered a smaller room to the left of his main office building. Inside the room was a single bed, a smaller desk for writing or what not, and another window.

Spirit yawned and scratched his head. He was extremely tired, he had been up most of the night and had awoken early in the morning. Because of it, he had a throbbing head ache that had lasted almost the entire time he was awake. Since he wasn't expecting any more visitors, he climbed into bed and shortly fell asleep, hoping to feel much better when he would awake in a few hours.

Dek noticed that Corina was paying close attention to what he was saying. It made him feel like he was on display, so he promptly shut his mouth and gave her yet another half-grin. The situation had become more awkward than Dek had hoped it would. He had to stay on Corina's good side, otherwise this whole tour could turn for the worst. She turned away from him and continued walking - her face a stern smile. Dek raised an eyebrow. Did he strike a nerve? Maybe he should make some sort of joke...er...no that probably wasn't a good idea either. He'd just shut up for now.

After she told him about their destination - and how he might be in even more danger, he raised both of his eyebrows.

"So out of the frying pan and into the fire eh?" Dek said, more to himself than to Corina. But that just made Dek that much more anxious to get there.

"There's a beautiful place with a view? Hmm, that might be interesting to see." Dek said, trailing off. Then his stomach growled - a very loud growl." He looked back towards Corina who met his eyes and he smiled again. They approached a long stairway, and this must be the place, as Corina began the long ascent upwards.

"This is the residence of Sky. It is her that I wish to speak to about a certain event that might take place."

Sky?...Who's Sky? Dek thought to himself, as Corina knocked on the door and listened for any sound. Unsure if he should do the same, Dek just stood their looking out of place. Continually looking over his shoulder.

(Someone warn me if a long post involves my character, I rarely read long posts unless they do)

<<er... i have writer's block from Hell, so I may be a few days...>>

(LOL)

<<nvm, i'm good... GHA! long day...>>

Kairi awoke hours later, still in the floor where she had last been. She looked around, the light of daybreak peeking over the rooftops across town. "Damn..." She looked around, trying to get her bearings when suddenly a moment of realization hit her. "Champion! Hope she got out okay..." She stood, walking slowly to the doorway, her head throbbing. She wasn't sure who it was that had attacked last night, but she did know that she once again had to find her friend...
