Watch me fly... You know I'll crash...
Serenity bound through the woods. She didn't know how long she had ran for, but her leg muscles sent a wave of pain everytime her foot hit the ground, her arms and any other exposed skin were being scratched to ribbons from every branch that happened to miss her line and her lungs were aching and screaming for air, but these thoughts did not register in her mind...

All that mattered to her was putting as much distance between her and her pursuer...

You stupid girl! How could you not have known that he was an assassin?!?!

She cursed herself for her obliviousness. She was always careful and alert, but she had grown careless, she had pratically ignored her sixth sense when it was clearly ringing warning bells. If she hadn't seen the glint of the dagger she would've been done for. And now she was tearing through the bushes, her body was racked in fear, anticipating her eventual capture...

She leapt over a fallen trunk, only to dicover she had miscalculated. She let out a pained cry as she tumbled along the grounds, pain racked out throught her body, adding to the pain of her muscles and lungs. With the last of her strength she dragged herself under the nearest bush, praying it would be enough cover, and held her breath...

As she heard footsteps approach her location...

Listen to the rhythm of the falling rain.
Ah, the enchanted forest. Such a lovely place. It virtually buzzed with magical energies, the natural world surrounding the arcane. Thus it seemed the perfect location to practice her sorely out of use magics. Raiyne had decided just to come here for the afternoon, so she didn't even bring supplies with her or set up a camp. Trevena City wasn't that far away. or so she thought. But she had forgotten how big this forest was. Now the elementalist was quite lost.

However, she was not worried. Trials and tribulations could unlock some serious potential after all. Or at least this was her greatest hope. True, many lesser people had died begin lost in the woods, but she refused to be one of them. Tossing a blonde lock over her shoulder, she wished she had at least granted herself the presence of mind to carry a ribbon or something. Her hair was getting annoying. It was getting to the point that if she had a knife, she'd just chop the locks off and be done with it.

Crouched before a puddle, she waved a hand over the waters in an attempt to move them. For almost an hour now she had been sitting, right at this pool. It was not much larger than her hands placed side by side and palm spread wide. Now at last the puddle wavered, water lapping against the dirt sides in a small wave. With a victorious hum, she cast the water over the side and emptied the puddle completely. It was a very minor thing to those with a knack for magic. For her however, it was ... progress.

A disturbance in the surrounding forest cut her victory short however. Though she had no extra sensory capabilities, the unmistakable sound of heels against leaf litter snapped her from her pose. Standing, curious, she followed after it. Not much more than seconds later as she stumbled off the path, she found her self collided face to face with ... something. Falling to the ground with a thud and a sharp yelp of pain, she rubbed her sore temple. "What the .... damn ... whole forest and you run into me?!" Ugh ... this would bruise by morning. Blinking briefly however, she looked to the girl who'd collided with her. Then back to a figure on the forest path again. "Err... friend of yours?"

The Lycan's body was racked in immense pain, she was at the end of her very limits, even the slightest twitch sent a wave of pain throughout her body. She lifted her head up to see the unfortunate person she had crashed into, despite the sharp protest of her muscles. The person happened to be no more than a mere female human, but she could sense that this person had the ability to use magic, but she was in too much pain to be wary. Serenity tried to stand up, she managed to stand up, despite the searing pain.

"Err... friend of yours?" The woman asked, but the question was not directed at Serenity, but someone behind her.

Oh shit... Please... Let it not be him... Serenity pleaded in her mind, she turned her head and her hopes crashed. She made a mental note to hunt down whatever God controls Fate. The assassin had stopped in his tracks, but did not answer the woman's question, instead he walked over to the Lycan and grabbed her by the arm, wincing at the bone-crushing squeeze. She would've collapsed if it wasn't for his grip which held her up.

"Don't worry about her, she's my friend's paranoid sister" he lied, if Serentiy wasn't in so much pain she would've scoffed. "She tends to run off at times, she always thinks someone is chasing her... Did she hurt you?

Serenity gave the woman a pleading almost desperate look, pleading her not to believe this man and his 'smooth talk'...

Well now, something just wasn't right here. Rising slowly to her feet, she brushed a hand against the bruise on her temple. As the other girl began to rise as well, she stepped forward to make sure she did not fall. It seemed a useless gesture however as the figure noted down the path had arrived by now. Raiyne noted how he grabbed the girl by the arm, it was not a gentle gesture meant to steady her. The elementalist's thoughts roamed over the possibilities in her head. Was the girl a thief or run away perhaps? But the posture held by the man in dark clothes and the notorious nature for those in such garb struck her as amiss.

The girl's fearful expression reminded Raiyne much of accosted maidens in taverns. Knowing that something was definitely amiss caused her to drop a hand to her belt. "I think you should let her go." Her tone drew to a serious note, and though she had no weapon, already a magic was formed on her mind. "Now."

Serenity was at the verge of giving up. What's the point of trusting? She was only living on borrowed time and it would only be minutes or seconds away till she will breathe her last breathes, what's the point of trusting the woman who will leave? Serenity would've had given up, if it wasn't the wave of realisation and the build up of magic she sensed within the woman, she would've let out a sigh of relief but due to the pain she didn't bother, and she didn't want the assassin to know what she knew.

"I think you should let her go." The woman said the the assassin. "Now."

But he did not let her go, instead he only griped tighter, making Serenity let out a pained whimper. At the corner of her eye, she saw him grip the hilt of what seemed to be a throwing dagger, if it was for her or the woman, she did not know...

In truth she did not have too much in the ways of magic. It would be some time before she had redeveloped her previous finesse. However, Raiyne believed she could take care of this small problem. "Well... Don't say I didn't warn you." She shrugged, but nodded almost imperceptibly to the woman. It was as much a gesture to duck as any.

Eying the water puddle at the assassin's feet, Raiyne summoned what her recent practice granted. Abruptly the entire puddle of water rose up to splash the man completely. It was harmless really, but should serve a worthy distraction. Already however she was working on turning that water to ice ad inflicting real damage. But the girl had to be out of the way first...

Serenity watched as the puddle of water beneath the assassin rose and splashed him, distracting him. She did not waste a second at this opportunity. She quickly kicked the man at the side, in his distrated state letting her go, and threw herself away from him, reawakening the pain in her muscles. But he recovered quickly and drew the throwing dagger out of its sheath and threw it at the woman, aiming at her heart.

"Watch out!!!!!"

"Oi bad show!" She yelled, stumbling back and barely managing to avoid getting impaled. It dashed past, slicing opening her arm as she turned to avoid it. If the girl had not spoken then she might not have evaded it. With a sweep of the hand the water from the puddle would rise up, forming into small discs and douse the assassin where he stood. However no longer was it ordinary water, but liquid blades, sharp as any knife. At this range there was no way he could dodge them all. Or so she hoped.

Luckily, the woman had heard her warning, allowing her to dodge the flying dagger. But the smell of blood was evident to her sensitive nose, the dagger had sliced her. The Lycan watched as the water rose into bloades, surrounding the assassin. Serenity could sense the magic used behind this, and she could tell this was an offensive move. The assassin pulled out two daggers, his cold eyes analysing the attack, calculating options in his mind. His eyes flickered to Serenity, she was still the target, and with the wave of determination she knew he wasn't going to give up any time soon.

Before anyone could comprehend, he lunged at Serenity, his dagger inteded for her neck...

Evidently the assassin underestimated the damage those aqua blades could do. For as soon as he made a wrong move to the girl, Raiyne cast the spell towards him. Being that the blades of water surrounded him on all sides, the droplets closed in. The faster the assassin moved the greater damage the blades of water caused. The effect on the assassin's body was the same as if he had been cut by several dozen knives. Now Raiyne could only hope it had done the trick and halted his attack on the girl.

The blades of water struck down on the assassin, due to the fact the attack came from all sides it was impossible to escape injury. He was left with open gashes and a stab wound, but it didn't seem to faze him that much, but Serenity could sense the wave of pain coming from him. Despite his injuries, he grabbed another throwing dagger with movements so swift Serenity almost missed it, and threw it at the woman. Then lunging at Serenity once more...

This guy just wouldn't give up! Even though her spell had left him torn and bleeding he still drew knife after knife. And she was running out of things to do, as her magics were not quite up to snuff yet. Not to mention her bow was left behind somewhere. "Ah!" She exclaimed as a dagger lodged in her shoulder. It was good that she hadn't brought the bow anyways, now with one arm incapacitated she couldn't use the weapon to begin with.

Stumbling back a little from the force of the blow, she clenched her jaw and pressed on. The water that now spilled across the ground slowly rose up, hovering before her until it formed to solid ice. Grabbing the lance in her uninjured hand, she flung it at the assassin's torso. "Oh just give it up already!"

Serenity just watched as the water rose into the air, forming shapes, before it for it froze into a solid lance. The woman flung the lance at the assassin, aiming for his chest, but he twisted around at the last second, causing it to impale into his shoulderblade, possibly disabling the use of his right arm. She saw this as her chace, she lunged at the assassin, her dagger in hand. She crashed into him, the force of it causing both of them to fall the ground. The Lycan swiftly brought down the dagger on him, hoping to hit a vital spot and kill him, despite the screaming protest of her muscles.

Though little did she know, his hand still grasped around the hilt of his dagger, and he was bringing it up to her neck.

It was not quite the effect she wanted, but it would do. For the time being she could only stand back and hope the girl took the opportunity. When she did, Raiyne quickly stepped forward. She summoned another ice lance to her hand, a smaller one this time.

From her position she could see the danger the girl was in. With little regard for herself she stepped in, shoving the man's arm aside and bringing the lance of ice down into his neck. If that didn't finish him off, well he had to be immortal!

Of course, in Avalon, anything was possible.

He blocked her attack with his own dagger and flicked it out of her hand as if it was the mere air. She was in a vulnerable position, she wasn't strong enough to hold him down and though she was fast enough to dadge an attack, when he deflected her dagger her had grabbed her dagger hand, preventing her from another escape attempt.

Fortunately, the woman brought down another ice spear on the man, lodging it into his neck, effectively killing him. Serenity ripped off the man's grip on her wrist and stood up, despite the pain in her muscles. She gave the woman a grateful look. "Thank you..."
