"Well... I'm not sure of Shadow's whereabouts or why Demonica.... Angelica... Is here. I met her when she came back from the cave..." Aqua muttered, shifting her position to stand in between Demonica and Fae. "Well, don't be scared! I doubt she'd hurt any of us! But I do wonder why Katrina ran off like that..."
((Aqua, you might've jinxed it...))

Shadow had shifted to his shadow form, about to head back when he saw Thorn walk past him. What's he doing out? Wondering what the male nixi was up to -he should've been in the den, shouldn't he?- he decided to follow him, hoping that Thorn wouldn't notice a living shadow was tailing him. As they walked for a bit into the forest, he saw Thorn enter a cave, to which he decided to take a tentative step inside it, only to notice ghost and multi nixis. Cursing mentally, he slowly backed out, before shooting to the top of the cave entrance, and listening in to the conversation.
"See if you can persuade a few to believe what we are doing is right...because it is..."
Knowing that that was the end of their talk, Shadow quickly went to the forest's shadows, waiting for Thorn to come out before following him again. But it seemed that they were heading to the den instead.
((Shadow got seen or something? I dano...))

Thorn stopped and listened. He heard walking... he turned and his eyes scanned everywhere, finally spotting Shadow. " You know you shouldn't follow people... " Thorn said dryly, clearly knowing that Shadow might of seen what he was doing.

Demonica growled as she sulked around the den. She spotted Dee-dee and raised a eyebrow. " Who the hell is this bunch of fluff?! " She asked, in a demanding tone. Demonica gently kicked Dee-dee wondering who she was and who she belonged to.

Shadow snarled. He had wanted to confront Thorn, not the other way around. Perhaps he had shifted to his solid form too soon, he thought, as what else could have alerted the nixi before him than Shadow's own footsteps? He should've just shifted right in front of Thorn... Taking one step out of the shadows, Shadow glared at Thorn. "Why?" He knew there could be an ambush at any moment, but he had to ask.

"DEMONICA!" Aqua shouted, dashing to Dee-dee's side. "How could you kick her?!" It didn't seem like the young nixi was anywhere near crying, or hurt, but the thought of anyone kicking a kid was horrifying to Aqua. "Dee-dee, are you alright?"

Thorn sneered. " Why what? Why do I want a better world? Why do I eventully turn traitor to everything I see? " he pawed the ground. " Now Shadow...can't you see the world as a better place? Where multi-elements and ghost nixies guide everyone? Show them the right path to take? "

Demonica sneered. " Oh a kick is nothing! So stop whining! " she replied. " However a bite though... " she bared her teeth at Dee-dee.

"A better world..." Shadow muttered under his breath. It was something he wanted, yes, but not with the multis and ghosts as the leader. Heck no!
"A better world..." He said louder and louder as he repeated it, laughing as he did so. "Yes! A better world...Who wouldn't want a better world?..." He sneered, his crazed laughter stopping. But now anger took its place. "But how can that be if the ghosts and multis rule all?! How can you be so sure it will be better? How can you be sure that everything will be peaceful?!" He was shouting.

((Unfortunately, I almost shouted as well >< This is a touchy subject to me as much as it is Shadow... since the poor dude saw his family killed...))

Aqua bared her teeth. She rarely fought, but she would if she wanted to. "Then come and try! You'll find I'm not an easy foe to take down..." She was hoping she didn't need to fight, since Demonica and Angelica shared the same body, but if it came to that, she would.
((Shall we wait for Razor to rp here? Dee-dee is her char and Monty is Dee-dee's father...))

Thorn growled. " It would be better! The ghost nixies could stop crime with their powers and the multi's can help diffrent sorts of nixi get along because of being more then one power! Do you not understand the possabilities?! Why not join us Shadow?! We want a firm grip on this land to provide peace for all! Do you not want that?! Peace?! " his voice was slightly rising to a shout.

( Yeah let's wait for them Xo And Thorn...you moron!! )

((Both males got anger issues~ Also, I would add bold to all italics, but that might make other people mad so....))
"Peace?! How can that be when multi elements are in control?! How can you be sure that they will help the others get along?! Tell me, don't you feel hatred towards the rest, the rest who viewed you as worthless, as trash for just being a multi? Tell me you won't get revenge, show me you won't go for revenge!" Shadow snarled back. Peace, when multis were in charge? There would be no way, no way at all. If not, why not do things peacefully, instead of resorting to force? "Then tell e, if you value peace so much, why fight at all? Why not talk things over, do things peacefully, as you claim you want things to be."

Thorn snarled. " Because no one accepted us! Almost every multi-element is hurt badly and scared for life! If we ever try to do things peacefully guess what happens! We are attacked and hurt! " he s******ed. " If you don't believe me then hear yourself! How you are talking is just like the everyday stuff we face! "
Thorn's tail twitched in announce. " And it's also ghost nixies who are hurt not just us multi-elements...always wondered why Demonica is so viscous? Why Angelica is so scared of people?! Because it's nixies like you who made them like that! "
Thorn sighed. " What we are doing is revenge and to stop these crule things done...but I doupt now that you would understand after what you said " Thorn glared at Shadow.

"It's okay, I'm fine." Dew Drop assured Aqua and puffed out her tiny chest to look tough. She took a step toward Demonica and looked her in the eyes. "It's not nice to bite or kick!" She scolded. "If you do it I won't be your friend."
Montague couldn't help smiling at her version of a threat but sensed something off in the girl's voice. She almost seemed in a mood, probably from having her reading interrupted. He hoped she wouldn't let her temper take over, her water skills needed mprovement but her earth skills were quite advenced and she could do a lot of damage to the den if she had a tantrum.
He wanted to intervene but noticed Katrina had run off and he wasn't done with her yet. He finally decided to go after her. Although Montague didn't want to leave Dew Drop he knew she had taken a liking to Aqua in particular and hoped that was enough to stop a tantrum.
He snuck away while everyone was distracted and followed Katrina's scent.

((Thanks for waiting, guys. Monty wants that book so badly... I might have to think up a reason he's so obsessed with it.))

((wait, what did shadow say? O____O))
"...You said it yourself. This is for revenge. I will not help a cause that's built on hatred, it wil lonly make things worse. And don't you dare say I don't understand! You don't even know me!" Shouted Shadow, who was fuming. Don't you dare say I don't understand, Thorn, don't you DARE say that!
((Poor thing went through similar treatment since he was an orphan, and a thief~))

Aqua's eyes flickered to the nixi that just left, before flickering back to Demonica, and the pup who was standing in front of her. Not bad, the pup's got guts... Deciding it time to ignore the dual persona nixi, she coaxed Dee-dee over and asked if she would like to continue her reading with her.
