+Anima discussion

(Please remember to write more then 3 sentences)

Ny'ren shifted her thin legs closer to her chest as the wagon she was on bumped and rocked, a small frown gracing her lips. "Not long till we reach the town Miss!" called a voice from the front of the wagon, causing the fair girl to lift her head and smile somewhat "Alright, thank you." she replied faintly, shifting to the back of the wagon and hopping out, her bag tied securely to her back as she tumbled in the thick under growth beside the road.

((Sorry its short, and she is near the rain forest if thats alright.))

Hiro walked down a dust road that seemed to go on forever, healthy green grass lining it and barley any people around except for maybe a few who were traveling to the nearest town. He wore almost all black leather except for the white button up shirt underneath which seemed to be tucked in a short cotton shirt that didn't even reach his stomach. Two earrings hung from his right ear as one on the other.His bag dangled from one of his hands almost reaching the ground where his covered feet walked on. Oh he was a sight, people could point him out a mile away in this country and of course know where this boy must be from.Not like he cared what others though. His eye's which seemed to be the brightest thing on him, skimmed the area, it all be quiet new to him.

Standing up and dusting herself off, Ny'ren cautiously stepped out of the bushes and into the road, timid eyes glancing around for any sign of people. With a small sigh, the fair girl let her bag drop onto the dirt and stretched, a tiny smile slipping onto her lips.
With a quiet yawn she scooped back up her bag, only to pause and stare at an approaching dark figure, causing a startled and curious look for flash across her face before she realized that she was standing frozen and staring at the stranger.

Damon yawned from is perch in a tree; his emerald green eyes looking down with contempt on the lone girl below him. "Is she worth mugging in the middle of the day? What do you think, Hebi?" He asked a black snake; most of her body wrapped around his left arm which dangled off the branch. "She smells like a peasant. It's not worth your time." She hissed, obviously disappointed. "This path is ill traveled by the people we prey on. Can't we move to a more suitable location?"

Rima walked down the road a black lace parasol over her head. Her top body unseen from the shadow but her sliver eyes glowing almost. Her long gracfull legs easily monevering over the rocks. Her face was blank and indiffrent and yet so beautiful. Her dark hair sworling behind her from the wind.

"What about her?" Damon's attention was quickly attracted by an expensive black parasol that was making it's way quite easily on the path. "...She smells like a +Anima. And Money." Hebi squeezed his arm in approval, but she flicked her tail as if to make him wait. "Let's watch her for a little longer, though~"

Rima stoped and and and to look around beofre walking over to a tree. She sat under it and pulled ot a paper and black paint. She began to to some calliogiraphy, her favorite art form. Even doing the girl did a peacful artwork she was still giving off a deadly aura

Hiro continued moving at his own slow pace looking from the ground to in front of him seeing a figure that seemed to be a girl causing his body to tense as he got closer, keeping up his guard. He let out a slight sigh and swung his bag over his shoulder, holding it tightly as it dangled behind him and swayed a bit as he continued to walk down the road.

Ny'ren tilted her head slightly to one side an dscrunched up her nose as she caught his scent, shaking her head slightly and pulling her bag onto her shoulder, her attention caught by a well groomed figure alittle ways further up the road, though it wasn't her appearance that caught the young girls attention it was her scent, or more specifically her almost perfume like scent. Coughing faintly and relaxing her expression she moved closer to the side of the road so she could bolt into the trees if she needed to.

Rima hissed under her breath secing them. She tensed and turned in thier direction though her smooth motion of he rpainting hand never stoped. Her sliver eyes flashing in the light. They became slited like a cat so she could shee the two better. Her hair swirling around her as she turned to them giving off the sweet delicate scent of cherry blossoms

Damon watched the progression of events with little to no interest. "They're becoming attracted to each other. I suppose birds of a feather DO flock together." Hebi sneered, slithering back up into Damon's cloak. "Tell me about it." He snorted, itching his cheek lazily with his slightly scaly hand.

Rima's indiffrent face turned away from from the two and she looked up, directly at Damon her silver eyes flashing dangerously. Her calliography picture was of him and Hebi. She had been painting them. She had known they where there.

He didn't look at the girl as he pasted her.His eye's wondering to behind him before back to where he was moving, some buildings coming into view. He licked his bottom lip and put his hand in his pocket with a sigh.

"Your name"Rima demanded in a deep voice that was dark but also rich and pure."Tell me your name"she demanded once more. Her odd silver eyes staring at him unreletnly

"Observant little creature, isn't she?" Hebi peered out from his collar, disapproval in her jade green eyes. "Although she has my body length all wrong. What do you think? Knock her out or kill her all together? Let's see what's in her pockets."

"I'll pass. No more bloodshed, thank you. The local townspeople think that I'm a chupacabra now; sucking the blood out of all the travelers." Damon sighed, staring down at Rima with cold, calculating eyes. "Anyways, what do you think? Should we stop speaking in parcel tongue and give our names?" A dangerous smile tugged at his lips, but he waited for a reply from his advisor.

Ny'ren flinched at the sound of the odd girl's voice, her eyes shifting for a second to where the girl was looking before thinking better of it and continuing her walk to the town, not wanting to get into anything that could possibly turn out bad.

Rima's face was unchanging from her indreffent expression. Her mysterious eyes hard and cold as well. She demanded again."Your name"she said. The rossettes in her dakr hair just barly visable in her hair. She looked up from her sitting postion. She'd easily beable to fight him off if he pounced.

"Take the situation however you feel. I'm going to sleep for a little bit." Hebi replied after a short pause, coiling loosely around his neck; hidden well by his coat's high collar.

"I don't feel like it." Damon replied nonchalantly, his limbs hanging down from the branch. "Besides, who would want to give their name to a sullen girl like you? I'm sure that even the girl passing by right now," His eyes flicked up to Ny'ren, a coy grin appearing on his lips, "would get many more court* attempts than you ever will."

((To be courted = To be sought after by people wishing to marry. In the olden days, it was a very popular way for children to potentially become married to powerful people.))

Rima didn't blink at the insult obviously not caring."I need you name."She said but with some emotion this time, irriration. "I need it to finish the painting"She said her brows only slightly furrowed.."Plus....you bore me"she said

Ny'ren attempted to ignore the male's voice and the young woman's, her eyes locked on the ground as she continued walking towards the town, her hands holding onto the strap of her bag tightly as she chewed her bottomlip.
Shifting her blue eyes up slightly she studied the man infront of her, curious about him even if she wasn't going to speak to him.

After what seemed to be quiet long of a walk he arrived at the town, ignoring stares from people at his weird appearance. guess they don't get out of town much he thought to himself, rolling his eyes. He stopped for a moment, his nose scrunching up a bit as he glared looking down as a cat ran across the road.

Ny'ren blinked and looked down at a small stray that sat down right infront of her feet, forcing her to stop, much to her resigned dismay. Kneeling down she scooped the thin feline up and held it close to her chest as it purred contently.
Glancing around she was pleased to find that most of the attention of the towns people was on teh strange man in black, leaving her glare free for the time being as she headed to the nearest blacksmith to ask for work, her eyes straying for a minute back to the man as the wind carried his scent to again "A bird...?" she murmured, setting the cat down softly.

He watched as the girl picked up the cat, his mouth making a tsk sound before turning and looking for a place he could buy some cheap food, his bag now back at his side, but close in case of any thief's.

Ny'ren quickly shook the thought out of her head and hurried into the blacksmith's shop, speaking with him quickly and softly, before leaving with a small smile and looing around for a place she could stay for the week or two she would be in the town.

Hiro sat in a small Inn that sold some food and things to drink. As he ordered what he wanted from the women, he thought about renting a room, feeling a bit tired from the long journey.

"Oh ho ho? Getting irritated now, are we?" Damon's eyes narrowed down on the girl. "Well, perfect for me. I don't really find you very amusing either. Give me your name and I'll give you mine. A fair trade, no?" He smiled, although it was unfriendly and didn't even attempt to reach his eyes.

Wandering for around 10 minute a sigh finally escaped her lips and she took to questioning some of the people in the town about places she could stay, soon enough being steered to a quaint Inn, alittle ways away from the blacksmith she would be working for.
Upon entering though, Ny'ren nearly turned and walked out, her eyes imidiately landing on the bird man and widening. "Damn..." she silently hissed under her breath, shifting her eyes from him as she approached the woman who ran the in and purchased a room, flashing a sweet smile before leaving the Inn in a hurry, her eyes landing on the man once more as she left.

"Rima"Rima said shortly"Just rima"she said coldly her indiffrent face looking at at him."And I wasn't insitally interested in you. Mostly her"She said blandly painting to Hebi.

((Hebi's out of sight.))

Damon raised an eyebrow. "She doesn't speak this language, you know. And anyways, I'll be off now. Have fun painting with no reference." He licked his lips hungrily, chuckling a bit. "My meals are waiting in the next town. Chao. Don't trip on any snakes." He gave a last flick of his wrist before receding into the canopy of leaves; bounding lightly from branch to branch as he headed towards the civilization nearby.

((Her eyes are still slited like a cat's remeber. She see's things better than she would if she had her normal eyes))

Rima's face didn't change but a tense atmostephere blew around around. She packed up and walked out into the sun the opposite way of the others.

The feel of a cat near by came to him as he looked around and to a girl as she left. Just then the women came with his food and set it before him."Do you have any cats?"He asked. The women shook her head."No sir not here." He frowned and nodded before looking back to the door which now two older men were coming threw and sitting to a table. The feeling now gone. He chewed a bit on his bottom lip before looking to his food, His apatite almost gone.

Ny'ren walked till she was a shortways out of the town, having been followed by nearly 4 different cats she had finally given in to their constant demands for attention and had sat down on a grassy hill and began petting them, humming a tuneless song.
Within 5 minutes the cats were sleeping and the fair girl had layed down for a nap herself, oblivious to the setting sun or the cold breeze begining to blow in.

Later that day after taking a look around town, he found some things he could do to get money. One of them helping this farmer with his crops and doing some heavy lifting mostly. He sighed tiredly as he walked back into the Inn from before and asked to rent a room.

((No, I mean, literally out of sight. She's under his cloak; which is baggy and completely hides everything. I don't really have much time right now, but I'll post soon.))

Feeling a paw on her face Ny'ren slowly opened her eyes, jumping softly as a drop of water hit her cheek and one of the cats made an annoyed sound. Sitting up and shooing them off she stretched lazily, alittle annoyed to be woken up from such a peaceful nap, but the thought of her room at the Inn and an actual bed got her to her feet and padding back to the town, a warm smile gracing her features, even as the rain began falling harder, muddying the dirt road quickly.

Sakura walked quietly down the road, looking around at the scenery.
