Faylin: *considers cage* I can kill it, if you wish.

Me: Faylin! *exasperated* Be nice, alright?

Faylin: But you agree, do you not?

Me: That's not the point. You simply can't go around eating other people's characters.

Vampire- Yah, what he said!

Me- Don't worry he's just fodder.

Lyr'Ous- Yah, it wasn't even that hard to catch him.

Vampire:

Faylin: *laughs* How hard could it be to catch a vampire? From what I've heard, they sparkle.

Me: *trying not to laugh* Oh, Faylin...I would tell you to hush, but I happen to agree.

Harry: That was a foul ploy on the sparkly one's part. They're stronger than normal humans, faster too.

Lyr'Ous- No that's fairies that sparkle, there seems to be some confusion about that nowadays for some reason. (Lyr'Ous Shrugs)

Me- Um, where did the vampire go? (Me and Lyr'Ous look at the empty cage)

Both- That can't be good.

Shawn: * shrieks *

Me: "Me and you both."

Shawn: "But you di- di-"

Me: "Calm down."

Shawn: * hides behind Tae *

Lars: "Igh." * shivers *

Me: "You have a dragon on your side..."

Me- don't worry Lyr'Ous caught him once I'm sure he can do it again.

Lyr'Ous- Um... I didn't catch him.

Me- What!

Lyr'Ous- I mean I'm a terrible tracker. Syl'V'Ous did all the work.

Me- Well go get him.

Lyr'Ous- I would its just. You know.

Me- What?

Lyr'Ous- You and him cant occupy the same space or...

Me- Or what?

Lyr'Ous- (Walks up to me and whispers something in my ear.)

Me- Oh... I guess ill leave so you can go get him. (Poof)

Harry: Calm down. It can't be that bad.

Corid:*brings back a dead vampire*

Tae: I didn't know vampires looked like people.

Mylo: [Sniffs cage carefully] He reeks of blood is he part shark?

Aelynn: I was picturing something a little more evil.

Seymour: What creates a vampire? Or are they their own race?

Tae: [Squeals in alarm} It got out?!?!

Mylo: [Snarls and backs slowly toward the water]

Me: I have a cowardly dragon? Chayn wouldn't have been scared.

Seymour: Wouldn't she?

Me: Mmm... probably not. She'd be too busy protecting Shawn to be too scared.

Mylo: I didn't say I was scared, now did I?

Seymour: Alright everyone just calm down. We'll look for this vampire fellow and return it to its cage.

Me: I think he's a guy.

Seymour: Fine, we will return HIM to HIS cage. Better?

Me: Yes.

Tae: [Squeals again]

Me: What no- Ooohhh. Well done, Corid.

Mylo: [Sniffs vampire] How did you kill him? Or it?

Tae: He's even creepier when he's dead.

Harry: A person becomes a vampire when they're bitten by another vampire. The specifics, I don't know.

Corid: I hacked it with my axe.

Lyr'Ous- Check again IT'S not dead yet they don't die that easy.

A man with a pair of pointy ears and dove white vestigial wings. Appears dressed like a hunter.

Syl'V'Ous- Yah you want it dead you gotta separate its mind from its body.

Lyr'Ous- (Takes his and and runs it across his thought) Yah I know dark.

Vampire- (Twitches)

Syl'V'Ous- (takes the vampire from Corid) good work Ill take this from here (Drags the vampire off where no one can see.) (Comes back) The deed is done.

Lyr'Ous- On a lighter note. Syl'V'Ous is the best hunter in all Ska'Lah'Seh.

Syl'V'Ous- No I'm not.

Lyr'Ous- Then who is.

Syl'V'Ous- Not me.

Lyr'Ous-

Harry: Did you get the stake to bury them beneath a cross-road?

Tae: [Shudders] Ewww.

Aelynn: Well, I'm glad that's settled with.

Mylo: Is it good to eat?

Me: Mylo!

Mylo: What? I'm hungry. if no one else wants to eat it-

Tae: [Goes pale]

Me: Go fish for food. No one's eating the vampire. Not my characters, anyway.

Harry: You don't eat vampires!

Syl'V'Ous- Yah vampirism is a blood born affliction so if you eat him you'll catch it.

Mylo: [Cocks his head] So, you humans don't eat each other?

Me: Where were you raised?

Mylo: In a lake. Where big fishes eat the smaller fishes.

Me: Oh yeah...

Tae: So, vampirism is like a disease? How awful.

Harry: No, we don't each other. At least, civilized people don't. Yes, it is like a disease.

Mylo: I see. [Looks in the direction of the vampire] Would the disease affect me?

Me: What is wrong with you?

Mylo: I'm curious. I've never seen a vampire before.

Me: You've never seen much of anything before beyond your lake, silly.

Tae: If anyone's eating anybody, don't do it here.

Aelynn: Is the disease curable?

Harry: Not that I know of. It affects the soul.

Vetis: Ooh, this must be the right place. A discussion about souls. *he chuckles as he enters*

Me: Behave. No violence in here.

Vetis: So?

Me: Stealing souls is violent.

Vetis: Ah.

Corid:*looks at Vetis like he's a tree Corid would like to fell*

Harry: Not really. More about vampires.

Vetis: *shrugs* Almost as good. Souls and diseases thereof. *he gives Corid a glance that expresses his contempt, as though Corid isn't worth his notice*

Harry: If there's going to be a fight since you two seem to dislike each other, take it outside. In the rain.

Vetis: I'm not the mood for fighting. *he casually straightens his cloak* I'd rather converse. Later, perhaps, I'll kill him.

Harry: Talking is good. Perhaps you can talk your differences out? It's much easier than fighting.

Corid:*handles the haft of his axe*

Syl'V'Ous- In Ska'Lah'Seh vamperism is known as the corruption it is a affliction that first affects the body and then the soul.

Lyr'Ous- Yah there's a whole bunch of em in the ash lands the Di'Fir'An have to deal with the monsters everyday just about.

Syl'V'Ous- Crazy fanatics the Di'Fir'An.

Lyr'Ous- there not much different than your people.

Syl'V'Ous- Oh really they say kill the infidel we say Love the infidel there is a pretty big difference between Mon'An and Di'Fir'An.

Lyr'Ous- Well you both have wings and pointy ears al;so you are both meta-humans created by living on holy ground for hundreds of years...

Syl'V'Ous- lets just agree to disagree.

Lyr'Ous- So... Vetrid or whatever you like to steal souls?

Syl'V'Ous- Yes I am interested in that tidbit as well. We just LOVE soul stealer in Ska'Lah'Seh.

Both- (Look at Vetis with twisted grins)

Harry: Things are getting a bit, ahem, tight in here. Anyone mind if I open a window?

Does anyone mind if I bring in Etattadix?

Etattadix: No, of course they wouldn't mind!

Me: They might.

Etattadix: You're too worrisome! * shrugs * By the way, why won't you bring in Etavke?

Me: Not yet. I have to create a profile for him.

Etattadix: It'd be nice to have my brother around, while I'm interviewed by these people.

Me: In a bit. Don't worry!

Shawn:

Lars: "I'll fish with you, Mylo."

Shawn:

Me: "Shawn..."

Shawn:

Harry: Shawn, why the shock? We don't mind having new people in here.

Shawn: "V- v-"

Me: * notes that Shawn hates vampires *

Shawn: "New people? Oh, sorry, I didn't see you at first!" "Hello, Etattadix."

Etattadix: Hello, Shawn!

Me: And if you're nice, Etavke may turn up sometime.

Etattadix: * coughs * Understood. How are you today Shawn?

Lyr'Ous- Um are you OK Shawn if I knew you'd have a panic attack I never would have "you know"

Syl'V'Ous- Brought a blood sucking soul stealing monstrosity into the forum.

Lyr'Ous- why do you have to be so blunt.

Syl'V'Ous- what you call blunt I call honest. Don't worry Shawn the the Dea'Mon'An is gone there is no need to fear here I even have proof (Syl'V'Ous reaches into his pack)

Lyr'Ous- (Grabs Syl'V'Ous's hand) What are you trying to do give him a heart attack. besides I'm pretty sure its that Vurnan guy that's freaking him out.

Syl'V'Ous- Well I can deal with that.

Lyr'Ous- No you cant its a nonviolent area all your weapons are gone.

Syl'V'Ous- Who said I needed a weapon?

Lyr'Ous- Um... sometimes you scare me.

Syl'V'Ous- Said the man who fought a dragon fist-a-cuffs.

Seymour: Welcome, newcomers.

Tae: Hi!

Me: [Realizes Tae is going to suddenly act a whole lot older soon] Oh boy, this should be fun.

Mylo: Come, then. Let us go fishing!

Aelynn: I have a strange feeling that Mylo's idea of fishing will be different than Lars'.

Tae: No, really? A dragon's idea of fishing is different than a humans?

Me: OK, when I said she was going to act a lot older, I didn't mean right now! You've barely finished your lessons! You can act all grown-up and political and noble later.

Tae: [Hugs Shawn] It'll be OK. The vampire's gone now.

Vetis: Yes, I'm quite a collector. *smirk* What would you two know of stealing souls?

Lyr'Ous- Well I am skilled in the elimination of any such entity.

Syl'V'Ous- As am I and while Lyr here has all the All-consuming power of being chosen by Dia (God) I have all the ability to make any such unholy being wet its pants every night for the rest of its scared existence. Leach. (Lyr'Ous must hold Syl'V'Ous back)

Lyr'Ous- (Whispers somthing in Sylv'V'Ous's ear they both smile at Vetis)

Both- HAVE A NICE TIME VETIS.

Vetis: *soft evil chuckle, which swells into a full laugh* You poor, poor fools. Thinking the power given to you by your God is enough to stop me. You have no idea what I truly am.

Corid: I'm prepared to see.*pats his axe head*

Harry: Everyone just calm down or take it outside.

Lyr'Ous- Ah the old I am greater than your God bit.

Syl'V'Ous- Didn't work the last hundred-and-forty-seven times doubt it will work the hundred-and-forty-eight.

Lyr'Ous- But dont worry I'm sure you have some hero climbing up the ranks of power readying him/her self to plunge cold steel or ect. through your wicked heart so why should a couple pro's like us bother Vameran.

Syl'V'Ous- Yes I know what it feels like to want vengeance against something unnatural. So I want steal there due.

Lyr'Ous- As tempting as it is. Though perhaps if we met theme we might teach em a thing or two Vecky.

Vetis: I did not say I am greater than your God. I am saying that, as mortals, you cannot use enough of His power to destroy me without burning yourselves out in the process.

Harry: That was close.

Me: Quite. Wu Qiang could probably take him.

Harry: Who? I don't think I've met him before.

Me: You will eventually.

Tae: I don't think I understand why they're arguing.

Seymour: Religion, it sounds like. Or something of the sort.

Lyr'Ous Oh so sorry Velma I'm just so used to villeins with god complexes.

Syl'V'Ous- I apologize as well however I doubt you would last longer than a minute with either of us We fight dirty. Vary Dirty.

Vetis: *chuckles* In the millennia I've lived, I've forgotten more dirty tricks than you two will ever learn.

Harry: Now things are getting rough. *leans against a wall to watch* *point of hat falls down over face* *flips it back*
