After a few hard blinks. He mounted again, Orion had his head peeking out of Leon's sweatshirt from the back now. Still staring wide-eye'd at the Cuniflare.
Nami looked to see Freez. being flung over onto Ky.'s back. "..what if you fall off?" She called up to Freez.

[Freezair]

With a mild snarl, Kyhorlet replied, "Are you implying that I'm so careless I'd drop her?"

["Ky, calm down," Kayneena sighed. "You're starting to act like Kyhorlet!"

Kyhorlet's face fell. "Errrm..."

"I'm sure it'll be alright if you just say you're sorry," Rorygon told her.

"Sorry, Nami," Kyhorlet said. "I'm a little on edge today."

Ignoring the turmoil, Rocket slithered up on Kayneena's back. He found a comfortable spot next to Rorygon, though not so close the Rollaby could complain about Rocket's scaly skin. "I think we're good to go here."

"why's that?" she asked, Leon kicking Mitfuhlendes's ribs lightly, to start off in a trott. He quietly lit another ciggarette.

[Freezair]

Kyhorlet gently paced her stride. Although Freezair was bopping around a little up top, she felt steady. Kyhorlet made sure to set her breathing before replying.

"According to Freezy here, this forest is infested with creatures called Moonlings." She huffed. "They sound awful creepy to me."

"'Creepy?' You've got to be kidding me," Rorygon joked. "A little spirit scares you?"

"If it means anything, then I certainly concur," Rocket hissed. "I find the idea of a--'haunted forest,' if you will--rather unnerving myself."

Kayneena put all her energies into running and did not add to the conversation.

OOC: Sorry.. My net has been going in and out.. T__T STUPID WEATHER!!! >o<

"So did you think i was some moonling? " He rasied one brow, but smiled warmly.
"..I know someone who faught the moonlings.." Orion said quietly.
"Whhha-?!" Nami had crawled up from Leon's pocket, and into his shirt as well.
"AAUUUGH!! THAT'S COLD!! WATCH WHERE YOU'RE PUTTING THEM PAWS!!"
Leon growled, and yelled.
"OH poppy-cock! Your just fine!!" Nami shifted around in his shirt before being comfortable next to Orion.
"So are you saying you know these things?"
-" ..not really. i haven't experienced it myself, Twilight has.."
"Who-?! O.o"
"Twilight.. She's a glacial Able who belongs to Rouge.. Her pen is close to ours.. we're going now is Leon's Shop/home."

[Freezair]

"'Fought?'" Freezair worried. "So are they aggressive? Gee, I hope not. I'd hate to be ambushed on the way to Leon's place."

"Don't sweat it, Freezy," Rorygon said. "We'll stick up for you if anything attacks. And you've always got your stuff."

"I know," Freezair sighed. "But you know how the jumps are. Every one we do, we get a little weaker. I mean, you've seen Ky's family--"

"It is, unfortunately, true. But with each new place we visit, we still gain new powers. Don't forget."

"Yeah!" And then, not content with merely throwing in a word of encouragement, Kayneena said, "Ummm... how much farther?"

[Queeny]

IC/ Leon

He was listening to their conversation, Untill the general question was asked.
"Oh; Sorry, uh.." *he looked around, getting  a sence where he was at.
".. not to long now.. 'bout.. 20 minutes.. or so" The forest was starting to get a bit foggy; since it was raining a few hours ago.
"..I think we should pick up the pace, or the fog'll get too thick to see. Shall we? " He looked up at Freezair.

[Freezair]

"Way ahead of you", Kyhorlet said. She moved from a simple trot into a fast sprint; as she ran, a warm breeze seemed to flow from all around her, pushing the fog aside. Kayneena moved into her wake. The Serraptor's claws slashed through the mud and loamy earth.

Rocket squeezed himself tighter around, but Rorygon had a hard time finding a place to get comfortable. "What a ride," he moaned.

Though it was during the day the fog kept much of the light at bay. The 'spirits' would have preferred darker, but this would do fine. The groups size was unknown, thick fog like shapes flowed through the tree branches, only thing to distinguish this unnatural fog from that caused by the weather was a softly glowing cresent, which would pulse in and out of view, beating like some unnatural heart beat.

The creatures made their way over the heads of the strange troop, whispers and stifled laughs following them. But this was serious business, as this group was very close to the territory the'd sworn to defend. Even though their old masters were long dead, their commands had never been recalled nor had they been released. So these strange creatures continued to defend the library. Already they'd met intrusion, only to fight them back. They were confident now, and perhaps more daring. The moonlings (atleast this small group) had gone out hunting, travelling further than ever. Or atleast since their old masters had left.

It looked as if this hunting trip may end better than expected...

(-looks around and giggles- hee hee, sorry about me missing for so long. haha. ^__^;; I'll be around more, promise. ^o^;; )

[Freezair]

Kyhorlet started at the sight of the creatures coming into her path. Only Freezair's thick grip on the curly faux fur of Kyhorlet's coat kept her from falling off.

"Stay back!" Kyhorlet warned, but the tremble in her voice did not sound very threatening. Even Rorygon allowed himself a little snort at her expense. His ride, Kayneena, tilted her head curiously. She watched the little creatures with an intense, curious eye. She was not frightened--she liked to think of herself as a laid-back gal--and although she admitted that the appearance of the beings was startling, she could not bring herself to be too frightened.

Rocket, perhaps as a former creature of the dark himself--half dragon, half octopus--found himself drawn to the creatures. He slunk down the back of his friend and down to the mud. He slithered through the air and approached one of the odd beings. They looked somewhat aggressive. But could it be that they were more scared of them than they were of the creatures?

"Hello," he finally hissed. "'We come in peace.' Or so I've heard, that is what I am supposed to say."

"Aiie!" ><; Mitfhulendes reared, and Leon held onto the reins to stay on.
The moonlings scared her.
Orion looked at the things infront of them.
"That's them... It's the Moonlings!! RUN! We gotta get out of here!! "

[Freezair]

Kyhorlet was more than ready to follow his advice. If she had been a Cavallion, she would have reared too. Trying to work some sense into her ride's head, Freezair grabbed on to the shoulders of Kyhorlet's coat and pulled. The beastkin shook hersef and stopped.

"Are you nuts, Freezy? The natives said to run, so I say, RUN!"

"Look," Freezair said. She pointed to Rocket. He was regarding the Moonlings calmly, and Kayneena and Rorygon were cautiously inching toward them.

"NO!! NO! don't go near them! They are vicious things!! You can't attack the unless you have some kind of Elemental! No Physical attacks will work!"
Orion yelled from Leon's back.
"Freezair!,Rocket!" Leon said, having Mit. back up slowly.

[Freezair]

"You mean elemental magic? Ky can do that. She is a wind mage, after all."

The spoken-off one did not like being offered up to fight the Moonlings, should they attack. She could not believe the one riding on her could be so calm!

Rocket was even more at ease, but he was always in an odd way. "Hello." He greeted them as if they were people he'd met in a cafe.

Getting a little worried. Kayneena and Rorygon skittered behind Ky.

[.:Random Event 2:.]

Most of the moonlings skittered out of view, hiding in the dark leaves of the trees. Their whispers and laughter floating through the trees in a most eary manner. A few over the younger ones floated down, only to materialize behind the cavallion, pulling on her long tail before turning into their mist forms and cackling madly.

Two remained in front of the one who had choosen to speak with them. They were still in their mist forms, but had decided after a few quick nods of their cresent markings came into view...

One slightly ahead of the other. The etheral creature tipped it's head to the side curiously. Being farther from home they seemed to be less daring, less willing to attack. These travellers seemed to have lucked out.. so far anyway.

The other moonling snapped it's mouth shut and made a series of noises at the other. No mood could be decided from the tone, as they always seemed to sound angry, no matter their mood.

(They haven't given over ownership of themselves, and it's a bit tough. I wish you luck! -skitters to reply in Terrace Park-)
