Possibly the rainiest place on Evelon, Baian stretches for miles along the southern coasts. Thanks to the moist soil rich in minerals, wildlife here have developed unique adaptations. To travel through this thick, muddy area, most either take specially designed boats. (+2 Offense)

The endless sound of dripping, leaves all titled and overgrown, as the entire place was. That was no surprise, it nearly overflowing with so much water that neither was able to believe how it all stayed in. Clear, obvious paw-prints and trails were left behind the two, as they sank into the water with each step took. It was raining all the time, even so when it stopped, the trees kept going.

---------------
Dark hued creature kept a rather steady pace with his 'sister', trying to measure the graceful movements of the Aqua Sahound as his own. So far, success wasn't here. It just didn't come as easily to move in water and such ground as it did for her. Ice Comet's fur was plastered thickly to his body, and that made him feel uncomfortable and revealed. There was not a fur on the male's body that was dry, and everything was dripping, until he looked like a walking---running, rain cloud.
Of course going here was all Mizu's idea, and The Ice Comet could remember how her face lit up a few days ago when Est came to tell them about the updated map. More paw pads, the creature could feel his chest heaving with enormous effort and discomfort, and the water trickling down the back. A blue tongue couldn't resist sticking out and panting, until it seemed as though he was drinking and breathing at the same time. Ice Comet's mind felt a frenzy, as though it wasn't him moving, just getting lost in the rhyme and moving on. How Mizu enjoyed this, he couldn't have a single thought.
-----------

This was a beat, a test of the lands and water, strength to the fullest of abilities. At least that's what the female Sahound told herself. Even if it wasn't, she'd make it so, or it was part of the truth. There was nothing terribly different about this place than her home, other than it had a sense of wildness among it, nature and other creatures that didn't want to let her go. It was addicting, with walking on soft, moisture-like lands, and even while on ground, being covered in a coat of water and strange warmth that seemed to come from within. These were her lands, her home. Mizu's muzzle was lifted in the air, sniffing out creature and the simple scents of the marsh. It was wonderful. Every sight was green, cluttered and messed, every time there was water passing by, not allowing her to dry—not that she wished too.
Sides of the creature's neck heaved, as though gills were working, and there was more water in the air than oxygen. Mizu's tongue, which was a light shade of green, was busily working at licking the raindrops, eyes wide and glittering, not seeming to notice or care when water trickled into them.
----------

They both kept moving, Mizu slowing her pace to await her brother, though it wasn't needed, for they both froze when something rustled and rattled. Ice Comet seemed uncomfortable, ears twitching and beginning to shake him off—it might be company after all, but it was no use. Each second he was covered in a fresh wave of moisture. The female, on the other hand, swung her head to the side, eyes widening and head titled, paws sunk deeply in the ground.

Oce' & Azul

[center]The sounds of the drips of water from the tilted and overgrown leave's came. All over the place.. it was covered with the leaves that looked like they should have died along time ago. It wasn't much of a suprise to them though. The place was pretty much over-flowed because of all the times it has rained. Paw prints were shone in the mud under the water as the two sahound walked along. They were clear, and would probably dissaper in the water sooner or later. The sahound weren't so found of the place at the moment, but who knows. People; or Sahounds in this case, can always change their minds can't they?

--------------------

The larger, Glacial Sahound started to walk through the mud, not at all happy with the sitation. His pelt was drippin wet, and the whiteish-blue area's of his body were grey as a rain cloud. His blackish area's were like a raincloud as well---just bigger and full with more rain. Rain trickled onto his pelt more and more, getting on his nerves. Of Course-- he hates that Icy had to find the place, and it was quite true that she did. That she added both the Wilt'No Desert and the Baian Swamp to the map. He wanted to growl, but he couldn't do it because of all the water that was falling on him and slipping between his lips and into his mouth. He eyed his so called 'sister'; to smaller, Cobalt Sahound.

The smaller, Colbalt Sahound seemed to enjoy this trip. She was the one who begged Oce' to come with her anyways. Icy also helped her plead him to come with her. Icy wanted him to see what she found as well, Icy was so proud of it. She was proud as well. Of Couse; Azul loved this. She fit in here perfectly, like a shell on a peanut. But- that wasn't the subject. Azul was haveing a compete blast here, and not a single thought like that went through or was even was there in Oce's mind. He comepletly disliked this place, and wished he could go back- but in the makeing could get lost and not find Azul. He sighed, not knowing what was better to do. Foregetting that mud was everywhere, Oce's feet were brown and all gushy looking. He never seemed to notice, he was to busy thinking on how gross the place was.

--------------------

Really, it felt like the Baian Swamp was testing Azul. Well-That's what she told herself. Though it wasn't really true, because Baian Swamp would probably be completely differant if it didn't have as much rain as it did now. The place in the out-doors of her home, or pen, was much like this. When people sang, "Rain, rain, go away, come again another day", it would just ran even harder. She loved the rain, even if it messed up her pelt, that she loved in dear. It wasn't that hard for her to walk among the land that was covered with moistured soil. It was like a paradise to her. She loved it. She kept her head at a high level, smelling the smells of the Marsh.. creation, and well, moistness. Not a place let her dry---even if she did want to.

Oce' just kept a steady pace. Walking along without trouble of were he was going because he was deep in thought-about the Swamp. Azul wished she had gill's sometimes. Like when she went to Jawan, she would'nt have to go up to get air, just live of the water; though she wouldn't be able to get on land. Soon, all she could see was green, smell the Creation, the moistness... and then more Sahound?

--------------------

Oce' stoped, finally smelling the two new sahounds that he and Azul smelled. He then noticed his paws. He gasped slightly, and wiped them by a near by tree. Azul flickered her ears.. and slowly walked through some bushes.. running into a female...

Ice Comet was the first one to scent them. That was the biggest surprise for the creature, whose nose was busily twitching as he yearned to hear something other than the sound of rain and water. Instead, and a large orbed gaze was sent toward the female, ears pricked and nearly stretching out of his head—heard nothing, though his nose was more than glad to scent something.

It was true, for the scents had been getting him dizzy, over flooding until the point of sickness. Humans get sea-sick, was being swamp-sick any different? That, obviously, was an idle thought. Still, the slight change in smell was all it took for the brute to snap his head toward the left side, eyes blinking rapidly as more water trickled down the forehead and onto eyelids.
The others were just as went and fur-soaked as them, and just as same, were slowly blending into the marsh. The smells anyway. It was getting hard to see, and the dizziness that appeared when Ice Comet shook himself out –yet another time, didn't help, though a slightly clearer view was brought.

Someone was coming. And they were Sahounds.
------------

The lean creature kept her paws to herself, carefully taking them out from the holes of mud, until a clear glance was sent around the area. She had noted The Ice Comet about the sounds, and the rest was up to him. She heard—he scented. It was the way their team worked, and it was fine. Now, the ground was bustling with water, rippling out big droplets and streams from it, covered with mud and dirt. Slowly, Mizu's body lowered itself, hind paws digging in deeply as to gain better footage. Aqua Sahounds were sometimes web-footed, or had the talent of being so. It wasn't difficult then, other than a slight side before fully transfixed, the vixen's bottom getting wetter as water bubbled came up and exploded from the ground and onto her.

Still, she dug deeper and stretched out, enjoying the tingles that stood up and got wetted down. It seemed funny to pay so much attention, and the others, well, this was her place now, and no one would hurt her here. Mizu couldn't stop a toothy grin from emerging onto her muzzle, and the Aqua Sahound finally lie down, tail getting enough strength to thump on the muddy ground, and a growl from The Ice Comet when mud and dirt hit him.  Female just shook the crania,  ears pricked and seemingly unaware of any troubles that might happen. The cool and damp ground felt nice upon the paws, and it seemed to cover her body. Her whole being was here and alive, blood mixing in with water, until Mizu was just a part.
------

Of course, neither of them quite expected what happened next. Least of all Mizu, though she suspected it from the sounds on her left. The Ice Comet was a bit in front of her, eyes warily trailing the path, and claws flexing themselves. The muscles upon the body were trembling, as though a fight would help him get his senses back to their full amount.

So Mizu had flattened herself deeper, and lowered her face to the paws, head titled toward the place where the sound came from, the bushes. A chuckle of laughter was erupted when the other ran into her—or tripped over.

Ice Comet didn't quite turn around, though his ears pressed firmly into their direction. There were two, he was sure of it. And there it was. While Mizu was busy with what seemed a female, the brute spotted the male and nodded. "What a party we'll be having!"

The vixen's eyes were narrowed, and while she had to struggle somewhat to get up, her claws digging into the muddy earth and a strain to pull herself up, she did it, a tossed an annoyed look at the other. "Can't you watch where you're going?!

Great! Now he can't find Azul! All the things around him started to confuse him on were his sister went! Her scent was everywhere as well. He started to blink furiously. Aaah! "Isn't this Perfect! Now I'm loseing Azul!", he thought to himself. He wished he could just punch himself for it but he knew it wouldn't help him. No.. it wouldn't. He dug his paws into the mud, and over heard some words from Sahound.. or, that's what he was thinking they were, he took a step towards them, and saw his sister, and two other Sahounds.

---------------------

Azul blinked. "OMG! Rude much?!" she asked the female, saying it more in a comment. She stood up, and started to brush herself of, only getting herself more dirty. She looked up at them, seeing that they were Sahounds as well. "So, I see you got the updated map? We didn't need one because, well, this is our second time here. We found it will Icy." She started to put some attitude in it, then she noticed the male, she didn't really do anything, but think something in her mind. She streached out her paws, and then stood up, and looked at her 'brother'.


(Extreamly sorry for the crappy post)

(Hm. Want Azul and The Ice Comet to have a sort of crush on each other? ^_^)


The blue orbed gazed didn't look away from the other, hackles rising in a slightly dangerous attitude. He wasn't here for a fight, though it'll be fun, but this wasn't the place where he would like to be attacked. The two newcomers didn't seem that threatening, but then again, neither did him and Mizu. Ears pricked and went forward, his muzzle stretching out. "And who are you?" It was a direct question, blunt and challenging.
-------

Mizu; who had plopped herself down into a sitting position, titled her head slightly, sizing up the other. There wasn't much, but there wasn't that fatigue in the other's eyes as there was in Ice Comet's. Everything was going simply, and this distraction was actually interesting, and the female was glad for it.

"Rude much!?"

An eyebrow was lifted, careless and ignorant, and Mizu simply gave a lift with her shoulders, "Maybe, what's it to you?" Well, she had every right to be annoyed, someone did trip over her. A slight shake of her head was put out for disbelief.

"So, I see you got the updated map? We didn't need one because, well, this is our second time here. We found it with Icy."

That, she wasn't expecting. Whether respect had suddenly grew or not, it was impossible to stop her eyes from widening, hardly noticing when droplets of water hit and spilled out. The pitter-patter of rain was still there, though it wasn't paid much attention to, and it did feel like a pleasant rub over on the already flesh-soaked body of the vixen.

"Yea, you've found it?" A glance was tossed toward The Ice Comet and back, "We don't need one either, since we could get our way out of here without it." There was a haughty tone, which was broken by a friendly grin.
"That's awesome though! You finding it."

Well, she didn't know what else to say. And thus, Mizu look around, digging her paws deeper into the group, biting at the bubbles of water that sprouted out.
----

The Ice Comet was listening, and couldn't help but produce a grin at the other's words, chuckling softly. They had found it? Amazing. Though it did make him want to prove himself. Mizu's words were welcome, but not enough.

(=^-^= Sure! -giggles- So, is this ever not going to be a Private RP?)(Ooh, look at Icy's Lineart! Zein is editing it though. XD The way she looks {http://i179.photobucket.com/albums/w291/LayserBeam/Icey.jpg)

Oce' couldn't help but look at the male, to see that they looked so much alike. He knew they couldn't be clones, nor' being related. He and Ice Comet were just the same Breed and Type. "Me? I am Oce'.", He told the other Glacial Sahound that asked him. Many people pernounced his name as- Oak. Which was plainly wrong because his name was pernounced; O-see. By the way the male asked him, he was acting like he was challenging him. Oce' wasn't in the mood. He looked at the female, moveing his eyes back to the male. "You?" he asked him. His voice was smooth, and seemed what relaxing. He still glared at the male with his blue orbs.

------------------

Azul; also plopped herself into a sitting position, glared at the female she ran into, then slowly moveing her eyes to the male. She looked over to her 'brother', and then slowly got up. She started to streach out her paws. With a sigh, she looked around themselves. Unlike Oce's eyes, her's were looking happily, as Oce's were the total opposite. Inside boredom, Azul started to wag her tail.

"Maybe, what's it to you?"

Azul didn't comment on that. She gave a plain saying to her. With a small yawn, she glaced back over to Oce'. He just stood there, not doing anything but breath. He also didn't know he was sinking into the mud. She just got all mad because she tripped over her. Like, she was Right there! She wanted to sigh. Just give her a attitude!

"Yea, you've found it?""We don't need one either, since we could get our way out of here without it.""That's awesome though! You finding it."

Oce' smirked, still just breathing and moveing his mouth. A small angry look came onto her face at the first sentances she gave her. But, changed as well at the last sentance. "Heh... Heh... Ya.. Oce' doesn't like it here that much though. Also, I'm Azul!" she said still in a smile. Indeed she didn't know what else to say, she just watched Mizu and started to wag her tail.

-----

Azul didn't have much to say either. She wished Icy was here. She always wanted Icy with her. She just liked how she always used to help her do something that would make Oce' annoyed alot. She loved doing that kind of things.  
---------

Oce' listened to them, not really paying that much attention but indeed listening. He planted his but into the mud that his feet were sinking into. Still not noticeing that they were.

(Hehe, nope! =D It'll be more fun as a private one, I think. I want to see if I could make Ice Comet act like a puppy and then be all shy and uncomfortable, then challenging and 'stuff. xD I'm having trouble with their personalities, so I need to go and inspect them.) (Oooh! Smexy picture <3)

"Me? I am Oce'."

The voice was formal at the beginning, the brute noticed, relating to the 'am' use, and didn't reply. A nod was shown, or a bob of the head in acknowledgement to the words. Sometimes, shows like these were good for each. The other male looked surprisingly like him, and that did cause a curious look to flicker by before settling.

"You?"

A grin brushed by the Ice Comet, the tone was proper, and he blinked before answering, "The Ice Comet." Then the Sahound chuckled, "Now there's not much to say. Should the celebrations be set?" Blue orbs glared right back at blue orbs, though any paying attention would see his legs start to ease, and a calm, friendly expression over-coming...if not wary.
After this, he'd play around the place.
---------------

"Heh... Heh... Ya...Oce' doesn't like it here that much though. Also, I'm Azul!"

Mizu snickered at the Ice Comet's last comment, flashing him a silly look. Turning to glance at the other fae, the Aqua Sahound grinned and titled her head, ears flopping gently at the sides. The water felt cool and pleasant, and she couldn't resist paying no attention to the words before reaching up her muzzle and snapping playfully at the raindrops. Running forward a few steps, just past the one called 'Azul', Mizu laughed and tossed some mud toward the other, her tail pounding the ground with effort, sending splashes all over the place. She wanted to play...now!

"Neither does The Ice Comet," The female barked out, skidding to a powerful stop in the mucky mud, grass stains covering her fur. Mico should be here, she decided, and next time, they'll drag her here. A wave of ground lifted up, covering some plants, which shook.

Putting her muzzle to the ground and mud, Mizu stuck her nose in, before lifting in up in a fast motion, trying to get the other with it, "I'm Mizu!" She laughed, eyes glittering. They could talk later, this would be more fun.

Or at the same time, "Fancy a game? My brother did mention celebrations!" The last was sent in amused-mocking fashion to the Glacial Sahound, before turning back to the female.
--------

The Ice Comet let out a burst of laughter, turning to catch a glimpse of what was going on. Did no one know how to act as the rules said it? Rolling optics and barking back a reply, the brute looked at the other and shrugged, chuckling.

~Icy Rose~ wrote:[center]ImageImage

(XD I understand. XD)(She is smexyyy. XD Zein is Re-doing her though. <3)

Seeing that the Glacial Sahound didn't answer, he gave him a slight glare. Why not answer? Did he say something wrong? If he did, he didn't understand why, and what he said.. was it saying 'am?'. Most people said 'I'm', but he prefered to say it the way people used to say it, before rarely anyone used the word. He sighed inside his head, then turned his eyesight to Azul then back to the Glacial Sahound.

"The Ice Comet"

He nodded to him, or a bob of the head as well since he didn it to him. Seeing how he chuckled, he must have been enjoying this. He didn't understand that well why it was that 'funny' since he laughed, but he was senseing he was thinking about something. Just something. A small smile of innocentcy came to his face as he glared his blue orbs into his blue orbs. Once again, he felt like he was looking in a mirrior. He sighed inside his head again, he was slightly enjoying this period of time.

"Now there's not much to say. Should the celebrations be set?"

His ears flickered up as he heard the words of 'The Ice Coment'. He stared, and a few blinks came. "Celebration's?" he asked, slightly wondering what he meant. His voice sounded confused as well. Why would they be haveing a 'celebration'? And in a place like this? That totally confused him. Here? He gave a small eye to Azul, who was just totally admireing 'The Ice Comet'.

---------------

A small smile came to her face as she heard the words celebration. She made a small smile, hopeing Oce' didn't see it at all. The Cobalt Sahound looked back at the Aqua Sahound as she glared over at her, and then slowly looked up, and a splot of water came onto her face. She got her tongue, and licked it off. It was right there on her muzzle so it wasn't all that hard to get. Feeling the cold mud against her back, she jumped up, and turned around, digging in the mud flinging it back like a dog digging in the yard. She giggled, and started to wag her tail quickly. She hadn't have this much fun in a while, even though it lasted about less then a minute. Just like the Aqua Sahound, she wanted to play as well! Her tongue hanged out of her mouth, like a dog waiting to fetch a bone or a stick.

"Neither does The Ice Comet."

Azul laughed. "That makes no sense! I mean, I thought guys liked mud!" she said, smileing at Oce'. She had brown stains all over her body, though Icy would probably give her a bath. She should have dragged Ien along. He was a Aqua like Mizu. He liked mud just like her, and Mizu. She smiled, and started to sink her paws into the mud, slowly trying to get them out, she couldn't do it in a quick amount of time.

"Fancy a game? My brother did mention celebrations!"

Hearing 'game'. She smiled and waged her tail more quicker. "Sure!" she said happily, and looked over to Oce' and The Ice Comet. She made a slight smirk as she looked at The Ice Comet. She would have to play a game with him sometime. She still tried to pull her paw out of the mud, which was half way to the top.

----------

Oce' couldn't bare but to laugh. He looked over to Azul, to see that her paws were stuck in the mud. Slowly, the laughter of him stoped, and then turned into a smile. He shrugged, to see they were going to play 'games' of some sorts. He still managed to smile.

~Icy Rose~ wrote:[center] OCC// Sorry for such a short posteh.

Knowing what games ment, Oce' still wondered what they ment about a celebration and games. What, hide-and-go-seek? Tag? What? Tradional games? How about a game called 'Find Food?'. Speacking of food, Oce's stomach made a growl. He lightly blushed. Great. "FOOOOD!" He thought inside his head and then looked over to Azul. She broke into a laugh. "Ooh.. that was sooooooooo loud!" she said, streatching the word far out. That was a loud growl from his stomach, and she couldn't hekp it.
