Theodoric seemed to find her funny, as if he didn't believe that she was serious. "Your eyes are the windows to your soul. What you are, who you can be... they live together inside of you. Not only are you a strange and exciting man, but you share your body with another force, a wolf." She watched the churning green depths of his eyes, hoping to see it again without going to far into his head. But, it was hardly a shadow, pushed back to the deepest recess of his mind. She smiled and stopped probing... she didn't need to know what was in his head, he wouldn't hurt her. "Theodoric, have you mastered your other half? Or is it the reason you were so bad off?"

Theodoric suddenly got serious. "It wasn't the reason I was so bad off and I can control it to an extent," he said in a very serious tone.
"Tell me. Why were you crying that night?" he asked, very curious because that night the scent of demons was all over her.

Orianna tapped her foot impatiently. "What in the world is taking so long?" she mumbled, crossing her arms. 'Aurelie! WHAT are you doing? Will you hurry up? I'm ready to go. Besides, your boyfriend's... Let's just leave. Now.'
Okay, so that wasn't the nicest, but she was not in the mood. Her head was starting to hurt, and pain made her cranky.

Orianna was getting impatient and she knew about Theodoric. 'You can wait. Leave if you want you didn't have to come.'
Theodoric's mood had changed. He asked why she had been crying the night she'd found him. Aurelie decided to be truthful. "I had been attacked in my home by a demon, I don't know his name but it is the same one that killed my mother. Her name was Ari. She was a witch, too. He killed her in front of Orianna and myself. My father had disappeared earlier that night. His name was Gniess..." Tears slipped from her eyes as she remembered that horrible night.

Crying. Aurelie was crying... Orianna's brows furrowed as she put a hand to her forehead. 'What's going on, sis? I'm not leaving until you come with me. Who knows what kind of maniacs are out this time of night...'
She sat on the curb, sighing heavily. Full-blown headache. Thank you, Fate. Just what she needed at the moment. Perfect. What else could go wrong?

Theodoric now felt really bad. He had never made a girl cry before. He tried to comfort her as best he could.
"Listen," he said as he placed his hand on her shoulder," I'm sorry about what happened to you. It seems you know what I've been through very well."
He smiled to try and comfort her a bit," So, stop your crying," he said in a soft tone," It won't bring them back, but they will always be alive in your heart...."

Aurelie tried her best to smile. She hated to get so worked up... and Theodoric was right. She looked at him, not just his eyes, but all of him. He knew what it felt like, he had hurt before, too. "Theodoric, I know this sounds odd but, Would you let me help you? I'm not just a healer, I can fight! And I would really like to help you."

Aurelie's question shocked Theodoric. She wanted to fight. He saw something in those eyes of hers. Something he hadn't noticed before, a burning soul, the soul of a warrior. He was quite impressed, very few people had such a fire within them. However, he understood where it had come from. A thirst for vengeance.
"Are you sure about this? Demon fighting isn't exactly a walk in the park."
He had to make absolutely sure she wanted this.

"Are you sure about this? Demon fighting isn't exactly a walk in the park."
Aurelie stopped a moment, She knew that if she accepted it was for the long haul. It was for forever just like her mother. She might not get to dance or make her glass art, her sister could get hurt... but she could be hurt worse if she didn't. Aurelie nodded, "Yes, Theodoric. I want to fight with you, right by your side. Until the end."

Deep crimson eyes watched the lone female, glinting maliciously in the dim light. He sensed at least two more not far away, but the figure had no use for them and if necessary, he would destroy whatever he had to in order to get to the petite woman sitting on the ground.
A deep rumble of a chuckle slipped past his full lips. Pain was an easy enough sensation to cause, and this 'headache' she was experiencing was all his doing. Perhaps it would be easier than he expected.
(Hello, Ori. Hope you don't mind I'm bringing Damien in ^.^ It was a tempation I couldn't resist.)

(*blink* Nope. 'Course not ^^ This should be interesting)
'Aurelie, no joke,' Orianna thought, putting a cool hand to her forehead in order to ease the pain. 'We've got to go. I'm getting sick.' She stood, wiping her pants off absently. What in the world was the matter with her?

Damien smirked, watching her as he glided discreetly to the inky shadows behind her. His hand reached out, brushing against the sensitive skin of her neck.
"Hello, Miss Orianna," he said silkily, moving to lean smugly against a lamp post. "Long time no see, pet." His eyes flashed again.

ChroƬ grumbled moodily as he rubbed his head. "Prickly runt can't even take a joke." He stood back up and dusted his pants and cloak. He picked up his scythe and shaking his head, made his way through the throng of people.
'Not much help going there. All I got were bruises.' He thought as he moved. Quite strange it seemed. Demons were moving out of the line of fire faster than a deer from a flaming forest. And yet, no one seemed willing to talk about it. Curious.

"Yes, Theodoric. I want to fight with you, right by your side. Until the end." This eased Theodoric of her resolve. He knew that she would stick with it and he knew from past experience how strong of a witch she was. He smiled,"Alright, then. I think I should train with you a little bit, okay? And I want you to meet a friend of mine. His name is Chroi and..." Theodoric trailed off. 'What's that?' Theodoric thought,'Somthing isn't right.' "Aurelie... do you sense anything?" (Hey, Orianna and Carina. How about posting your characters in the character profile board in the original themes section?Thanks.)

"Alright, then. I think I should train with you a little bit, okay? And I want you to meet a friend of mine. His name is Chroi and..." Theodoric trailed off. "Aurelie, do you sense anything?"
Aurelie instantly sent a wave of thought towards her sister. "Orianna? Orianna! What's going on out there?"
There wasn't a reply...
"Theodoric, Orianna... she won't answer."
