@Amberanime,

Kage looked at Black. "Hmm...well then, My name is Kage. It means Shadow. And try not to call me a lady. Mainly because all the zolnixies in this forest would disagree with you. I have rumors covering my surface and for one thing." Kage looked at the whole of the group, including Shadow Night. "I will ask questions when I wish to. And I expect them to be awnsered. Or else. If you want to know anything else about me then go try and piece it together yourself." Kage glared at the group, she wanted some fun. But this wasn't what she expect. I hate new things, but they are sometimes fun, she thought.

Shadow Night turned back to the group but didn't step next to Kage. Obvious reasons, she would take out one of his eyes in style before someone could say "Kage"

@Coradrawa,

Black went on unfased.
'Well ma'am, I would not ever wish to insult a lady. Don't take it to heart. Lady refers more to a gender then anything else. Though I could call you Kage from now If you prefer. As for answering questions just because you wish it, I will have to dissapoint you I'm afraid. You see not even my king always gets answers on his questions, and your not my king. I do not yet know how you believe things work in this forest, but where I am from dictation is not part of it. If you wish to know things from us I suggest you try asking nicely. Who knows..I might just answer them.' He said in a friendly tone, like he was talking to a new neighbour that did not quite get how things worked.


Black did not back down or bow for this woman but neither did he really challenge her or insult her. They came here for a reason. Being bossed around by some evil woman was not part of that reason. She was going to learn you can not control everything. If she did so far she was in for some nasty surprises. A new breeze has entered the forest. And it refuses to get caught by it's branches.

@Amberanime,

Kage studied the male called Black. Then she made eye contact with him and did not break it. "Fine, then. But I have one question for you. Which I expect to be awnsered or all the zolnixies here might murder you for...evil, I wouldn't mind helping them with the slaughtering. But anyway. What are you and the preditors doing together?" Kage didn't lose her serious tone. She didn't do any action that made her seem to threaten them. She just stood there, making eye contact with Black, speaking with a serious tone.

@Coradrawa,

Black tilted his head.

'Together? Predator? Oh you mean that smoke thing that just left? Sorry to dissapoint but we where not together. We just happend to hear this lad over there being in trouble so we went over to help him. Then we tried to scare it away. We where not really attacking it, but sure where not together either. The smoke thing or Predator if I understand correctly, just touched my forehead with something and ran off. There is nothing more to it. Though seeing as you where watching all of that I asumed you already knew this. Perhaps you could explain to us what these predators are instead? Obviously you think that it is not natural for a predator to just run off. You seem to know them much better then I do. So let me ask you instead, do predators fall in love? Because maybe it fell for my charm.'


Shax Topaz and most of the group sweatdropped at the last part.

'Though that is not likely is it? Anyway you are kinda hostile to us, and did not seem botherd to watch this kid over here die. The fact that your standing there all relaxed, just observing tells me 2 things. 1 You do not care about helping others and might even enjoy their suffering. 2 You are not as afraid of the predators as the others probably are, when compared to the kid. This last observation in turn tells me you either work along with them, or understand how they work much better then most. In both occasions this would mean you have connections to the one's who are corrupting this forrest.''


Black lost his goofy and nice and charming tone and looked very serieus.

'Which means you are part of the problem and we came here to fix the problem.'

Tenshi grinned. Most Zolnixi looked at Kage dangerously. Whoever she was, she would not wind Black around her paw. They saw right trough her. Black was forced to thank an old enemie for that. Feiht. He learned Black how to read those people....trough experience. Bloody Feiht. Funny how that bandid dissapeard a year ago. Black hoped he did not dissapear to this place...

Black went on.

'So unless you have usefull information that could help or save zolnixi in this forest I suggest you move along. We most definitly do dare to fight you. And I promise you, whatever damage you may do, we will return it with interest.'

(Remember all very well trained experienced warriors/mages Zolnixi with a few exceptions like translator and nature experts but even they can hold their own in a fight. Only Tenshi has no experience but his crazy strenght level makes up for it. Kage has no chance. She probably could beat most of Team Black in one on one fights but they are not alone. If they want to stand a chance against the forest and it's predators and hostile nixi's they better be good otherwise they would be dead before midnight lol)

@Amberanime,

Kage's movment or stance did not change at all, nor did her voice. As though his words might mean nothing at all. " Well...Black...Let me tell you this. Preditors will choose a prey and won't leave it alone EVER. So, if you think you have saved this boy then you haven't. That preditor will not leave him alone till he dies. And another thing. " Kage walked right up to Black and glared at him flicking her tail. " If you want to know ANYTHING else about me then work it out for yourself. And maybe I DO injoy the suffering of others. But what is that to you? Nothing at all. And corruption of the forest. Well, that's just outsiders speaking. There is no corruption. There is only zolnixies, preditors and the guardians. Oh, we best not forget the guardians. And you better watch where you tred and what you might spread in this forest because, if they don't destroy you first. Someone else might." Kage turned around. Her tail brushing Shadow Night, who shivered from the touch, as she walked to the tree she jumped off. " And don't think I won't be watching you. I might watch you but then might not. Oh...HE will injoy hearing the news..." Kage jumped onto the tree's bark and climed up. She soon disapeared in the canopy of leaves.

@Coradrawa,


Black smiled the moment Kage was out of reach. He got exactly what he was fishing for.

'Guardians eh? Why thank you Kage for your help. Much apriciated.' (He did not talk to Kage, he knows she left. He is just thinking out loud.)

Black was not worried about what she said. Outsider or not, the fact that the forest had gone bad was kind of obvious. The question was how to get rid of the corruption and make it a safe and peacefull place again. The guardians seemed like as good as any place to start.

As for having to figure Kage out, there was no real point to that now. All he needed to know about her he already did. And he had better things to do with his time right now. She was right that her enjoyment of suffering had little to do with him. Except that he hated suffering. And innocents get hurt unneededn because she just watches. And that has something to do with him.He was more interested in these guardians right now though.

As for those preditors, appearently they never let go of their prey, but just a few minutes ago it was made clear that they never just leaves either. And yet it did. Seems their presence is making them act different then usual so for now he would not go on the information just given to him. He would do his best with every situation at hand. If it came back it came back, if not then not. That simple.

And spreading stuff in the forest is kinda the point, They are here to safe zolnixi and take down the corruption. That will obviously put some corrupters in a bad mood. To bad the corrupters where on Black's to deal with list. He had no intention of pleazing the bad guys. Taking them down was something Black enjoyed. Hey he was no saint. He liked to to take down tough evil ones and to gloat when he did. He did not like killing them though and if they had redeeming qualities he was all for second chances. But back to the point. Seeing as there where Zolnixi who apearently listend to all that cra.p before and still live bad lives Black knew that playing nice and playing by the rules would not safe anyone nor change anything. So some upsetting, moving around and changing some rules had to be done.

As for this ''HE'' person. Black could hardly wait to meet him. This girl obviously was no small fry, but she was not one of the big shots either. Perhaps this ''HE'' could be another path that would lead them to solving the problem.

Speaking of problems... There was still a boy he had to chat with.

Black turned to his nixi's. 'All right everybody, time to do some research on guardians and predators. Don't let that Kage girl bother you to much. It does not matter if she is watching or not. Let her. We have much more importand things to deal with.''

He turned to the boy, who was called Shadow apearently.


'Hey kid, you calmed down?'

@Amberanime,

Shadow Night looked at Black. "I'm kinda carm now..." Shadow Night was unsure if he should tell them about the guardians or not...what if they plan to wipe out the guardians? And turn the forest dark? What if they are spreading the so called 'corruption'. Well, he thought, beautiful Kage defently isn't.

@Coradrawa,

(Uhm wasn't shadow part of the group that was anti forest lets escape? He should not be one of the brainwashed ones. And he was there...he nearly died...she let it happen... big duh the forest is currupted, and shadow as one who wants to get away should not care about these guardians in that way right? No offense but Shadow sounds like Tribe and co now. I know how to go on with the rp because Shadow was thinking it instead of saying it, but I am just pointing out that the way he thinks does not make much sense as one that wants to get away and is not brainwashed. As one who has free will and knows the forest is fishie, he should be all like YAY finally some Zolnixi who see the truth like me! Maybe now we will get somewhere, somewhere hopefully being OUT of the forrest. You know what I'm Saying?)

''Good, now I want you to relax. We ain't gona hurt you kid. We are just here to help. Like Tenshi tried to explain, we left nixi's behind we care about greatly to try and help you so try to give us some credit here. However we only just got here and don't know much. All the help we can get would be apriciated. You mentioned Zolnixi who wish to leave this place. Could you bring us to them?''

Black could not let it go, but something about that boy looked familiar.

(ps: Can I enter a nixi in the group nixi's that want to get out? Besides Gully who will join there soon )

@Coradrawa,

Gully heard the voices too now. She was growing a bit nerveus and shy. She never was good with meeting groups of new faces at once.

'Whisper, they will not harm me will they? Do they accept new nixi's like me? I am kinda young and not a fighter.. what If I get in the way? Do you get here often? Do you know them? Are they nice?'

Because of her nerves she once again was asking a lot of questions.

@Amberanime,

(Yeah, but he knows Kage believes in the guardians and because he fancies her, he feels that if he does something she would hate she would hate him. And he doesn't want that :3)

Shadow Night shuffled slightly. "Well...as long as he doesn't upset any of the zolnixies..." Shadow Night nodded towards the white Zolnixi. He shuffled again.

(Yeah sure! Add away XD)
