Once Upon A Time... discussion

((...))

Shayella walked into the library and sat on her feet, reading a book

Nobody came inside. He was looking for a secret somebody.

Shay pulled her hair into a bun and put poison darts through it

Nobody looked hard at Shay. He was thinking. He sensed that Shay was thinking about poison darts......

Shay went back to reading her book, The Art of War.

He read Shay's mind. He could see that there was a phrase in her mind. "It is said that if you know your enemies and know yourself, you will not be imperiled in a hundred battles; if you do not know your enemies but do know yourself, you will win one and lose one; if you do not know your enemies nor yourself, you will be imperiled in every single battle."

And he said, "If I were you, I'd not be reading about wars."

Shay, who was startled, looked up and answered, "I have read this book to many times to count. I find it interesting."

"So are crimes. But they aren't good, are they?"

(heyyy can i join the rp :P)

"The Art of War is not to be followed, yes but, doesn't mean I can't read it." Shay said.

"If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle." she quoted.

((yeah, totally))

(lol awesome, i'll make my dramatic entrance in a moment LOL)

(Yeah, you totally can!)

Saraphina walks into the library, her wolf guide trailing behind her. She tilts her head and stops, hearing to people talking.

Nobody suddenly gets worried. There's another person in the room and that person has not come with good intentions.........

"What is it?" Shay asks, quietly, sensing something wrong

"A person is eavesdropping and hearing our every word right now."

Shay started searching the library. Finding a source of fears.

Hearing this, Saraphina laughs. "It would seem so wouldn't it? But you are the one who is eavesdropping on my thoughts." She slams her mental sheilds down and smiles tauntingly.

Shay keeps searching, her power not affected by the shields.

Nobody smiled back wickedly and said, "It's a habit. Reading people's minds. And it comes in handy when enemies are near you."

Hissing, she takes out one of her Tarot Cards. Searching she finds the one she's looking for. "Protect me from intrusion and my fate." The words echoed and died down. "That wasn't a very nice thing to do now, was it?" Saraphine says softly.

"Nice is an understatement," says Nobody.

"Enemies? I am simply a girl who wanted to go to the library." She smiles innocently.

Shay hisses and enchants Saraphine, swaying her will.

(um guys im getting confused lol)

"You're trying to trick me, aren't you?" says Nobody. "You were one of those people who drove the Bigfeet back into Nowhere, weren't you?"

((okay. Nobody talking to you. My charrie is an enchantress. she's trying to sway your will))

"Don't know what your talking about." She reaches down and runs a hand through her wolf's fur.

"I'm Shay, and you are?" she says sweetly, adding Sway to her voice. ((it's to make her like Shay. at the moment))

"You have a plan in your mind. I can see it. And so...." Suddenly, where Nobody had been, there was a tall man standing wearing a uniform. He had a black moustache.

Shay shifted her features to look somewhat less dangerous.

Nobody looked surprised. "You can shape-shift too?"

She snapped, shrugging off the Sway she pulled out a knife and threw it accurately towards the man. It whisled right past his ear, embeding into the wall. "Do not test me, you have no right to know my thoughts. And you, do not ever try that again, or you'll suffer the consequences." Saraphina stalks out, leaving the both of you behind.

"It's a pity I didn't get to show her what I can do with my hands. It would have taught her a good lesson." Nobody said, still in his form of Hitler.

"Some what. Did I mention I'm impervious to weapons?"

"Impervious? That's interesting. So you'll be unaffected by my hands?"

(lol tayyab) Saraphine stops, and crouches beside her wolf. Looking into it's eyes she spoke it to it. "Would you mind going back? I would like to keep an eye on them." The wolf nods and runs back the way they came. (im going to be the wolf now lol)

"No, I can be hurt by physical hits but, not by any weapons."

"A hand counts as a physical hit, does it?" Suddenly he goes rigid. His enemy has sent a wolf in the library......

"Yes!"

The wolf creeps inside, moving quietly. Slowly coming to a stop a few metres from the two people, she watched them, a ghost to both of them.

Shay concentrates on shifting her features again. Back to normal, she relaxes a bit

The wolf watches the man, then decides as Saraphines guide she would bfriend him, for her own good. Walking closer she sits at his feet, showing no fear allowing her mind to be read.

Nobody looks down at his feet. The enemy's guide seems to be thinking of befriending him.

"Saraphine is not an enemy." The wolf thinks to the man.

"It can't be. She drove my kind out of her country. I have to take my revenge on her."

"She did not, she was chainded to a whipping post when that happened, young one." The wolf's eyes filled with tears as she recalled the day.
