[center]The sky was a mixture of lots of colors. Red's, oranges, pinks, and a light purple, with the blue sky coming around the corner.  Light pawsteps were heard if you where there, watching these two pad through the damp earth of the Tengel Rainforest. The Kuhna wasn't sure what was going on, and why he looked so different from everyone else. His white body with his grey and black stripes, with his fairy wings and earings. He looked so much like a girl to so many others, but he was a male.

All the male wanted was a mate, and a family but that couldn't happen. His owner said it herself, but yet did he know it had to be a Elder, because he was a unknown breed. He thought it as unfair. Why couldn't he have a family? Things got better, but went downhill again.

A Doom Kitty was padding behind him, she had odd feathery wings with her ears pierced as well. They first met in the Tengel. He remembered the day...

Small mew's where heard from the hallow in the tree he was hearing. The white, grey, and black kuhna looked out of the hallow, to see a Doom Kitty roaming in the rain of the forest. He perked his ears, and jumped branch to branch to reach the cat.

"Are you alright?"he asked the Doom Kitty, his fur was already soaked along with the Doom Kitty's. She looked odd for a Doom Kitty, but he knew It was one. The Doom Kitty was black – they were usually grey -, had red spots – they usually had purple ones -, and also had blue eyes – they usually were white, from the ones he has seen over the years -. The oddest part was...she had wings.


"Do I look okay!"the Doom Kitty screeched. "Sorry. Is there somewhere I can stay?"she asked, her voice getting sweeter. He blinked. "Um. Sure."He told her about the hallow, and she agreed and purred happily about him letting her stay in the hallow with him..

The day rang in his mind, and then they were found by Icy, which was kind of okay. Yesterday, she gave them some special water. It was really shiny and blue, but they drank it anyway. They didn't feel all that bad, but things got horrible.

They were cursed with the spirt of the Ballama.

They didn't know of course. Some where blessed, but the Ballama spirt on them gave them misfortune. They feel in lots of places, branches fell ontop of them. And their food tasted like.. er.. I don't feel like telling you. It made him vomit though.

The forest soon became bright, and then they came to the spot where they first met. The hallow in the tree was still there, but they could sense someone else in it.

"WHO'S IN OUR TREE!!!"The Doom Kitty splattered.

[Dawnhawk]

[center]The kit was ashamed to have been tresspassing, yet there had been no harm done... The only thing missing was a bit of space. Nervousness clawing at her stomach, Cura-tsumei called out, "Umm.. Not me? Yeah, yeah.. Not me!"
At that moment, the Kuhna wished that she had brought along a travelling companion, but there was a strange calling that had led her here alone. Giving her head a sharp shake to clear her brain, C'tsu spoke again. "It is I, Cura-tsumei, Citrus Kuhna, otherwise known as Fruitpaw. My Ballama lingers underneath my changing pelt. His name is unknown as of yet, though he can send odd, grating noises to my imagination. It's not come fully. Mister Ballama can help me through."
The poor thing knew what Chontez would've done if she'd heard the words Cisti had uttered: A night in the dump and a fierce smack across the muzzle, if not another scar upon her hind legs. "Don't hurt me, please, I beg of you! I meant no harm! The Ballama told me to!" she wailed, covering her eyes with her paws so as not to allow the fresh tears to stain her ungroomed fur. Gasping for breath, Cura-tsumei flopped onto her side amongst the branches of the tree, the salty fluid now uncontrollable.

"I'm sorry!"
((A bit late, but better that than never!))

[Icy Rose]

[center]The what? What Ballama? At that moment, a little Ballama came and sat beside Xunhba's feet.

At the same time it happened to Senbria, the Doom Kitty. They couldn't see each others Ballama though.

"..A KIT IS IN OUR TREE."The Doom Kitty yelled, and then arched her back. Xunhba put one of his tails infront of the Doom Kitty to tell her to stop. He looked up at the kit. "The Ballama? What are you talking about? Also, this is Senbria, and I am Xuhnba."He said, and then brought the tail that was infront of Senbria back to encline with the other tails.

The Ballama at Xunhba's feet was sitting on his head, whispering something in his ear. Yell at her...make her so sad that she'll bow at your knee's for good... The Ballama said. Of course Xunhba was the only one who heard the Ballama talk. He shook his head. "NO!", He thought. And then shook his head.

The Ballama was thrown off, and in rage he stood on a tree branch and it started to break...it was going to fall at Xunhba!

[Dawnhawk]

[center]Quick as a flash, although stricken with fear, the young Cura-tsumei jumped from her perch in the tree and splayed herself out on top of Xunhba, so as to protect his head from the branch. As it came spiraling down, she utilized all of her might to send it cascading down the side of a small knoll a little ways away. Suddenly, C'tsu fell off of the other Kuhna's cranium via violent spasm, whilst the unprepared for wave of emotion entered her. "Kay.." she murmured, intending for her coldhearted to alight near her. Nothing came, yet it was now possible for the Citrus to see the others' Ballamas.

Eyes rolling into the back of her head, everything went dark.

She dreamed of a place full to the brim with the little spirits, though it wasn't a dream, but a vision. To her utter surprise, there were not as many of the entities as met the eye. Kay, her nickname for the malicious soul sent to her, was absent.

"Kay! Kay? Where are you, Kay?!?"

"I'm right here, inside of you. Now, it's time to go back. No doubt they're wondering what's happened."

"Is it my fault?"

"It's mine. You needed it. Now, tarry along, then."

OOC: Sorry for the short post.  
 Spammy, attack! xD -had to do that-

[Icy Rose]

[center]As the tree branch went the other way, Senbria and Xuhnba were frozen in surpise. They didn't know what happened to the kit. As they noticed the kit was knocked out - or something -. Xuhnba poked her with a paw in her chest, not hard but just a slight amount to try to get her up or something.

Senbria was trying to get into the tree though. She clawed her way into it, and then her Ballama jumped down ontop of the kit. Now; Xuhnba and Senbria could see three ballama's.

"Buan!" Xuhnba shouted as he saw his Ballama jump on the kits stomach. He swatted at the Ballama until it got away from here.

((Mines small tooo. ;; ))

[Dawnhawk]

[center]Cura-tsumei shook her head, somewhat reviving herself. Simply because she didn't realise the Ballama was there, the she-cat attempted to stand... And succeeded! Kay stammered his disbelief, telling her that she was doing something wrong. Immediately she flipped onto her back, writhing around like an insane thing. "Here now, hun, here now! Stoppat! Nothing's wrong, just don't get up yet..." The ballama padded up to the other Kuhna, his paws soundless upon the earth. "She's okay, just never you mind about before. The past's the past, there's no changing that. Imagination is a powerful thing, my friend. Harmless though it is, she may go out again... My comrades have many things to tell her."

((Meep! I'll do something that extremely exceeds the border, and then I'll barely pass it! There's gotta be some sort of pattern here. I'll find it, even if it's the last thing I do!))

[Icy Rose]

[center]"Oh, Kay. Stop being such a brainless llama!" Buan shouted, and then shoved him abit. Buan was a 'female' ballama, if they had genders. Senbria's was a male. Senbria has named her Ballama Bright.. because it was bright blue color.

"Really Kay." Bright started to say. Ballama's got used to names quickly.. well.. Baun and Bright. "Cura-tsumei has a lot to learn, Dear Senbria and Xuhnba. Many.. Many things." The male ballama started to say. Not to mention curse ((or blessed if you wish to bless her)) her.., the male Ballama thought before then scampering around Cura-tsumei.

Baun joined in.

Xuhba blinked. "Dont tell that her what to do!" he hissed, and then picked Cura-tsumei by the flank and put her on his back. He stared at the Ballama's. How rude!

((;; Small.))

[Dawnhawk]

[center]Kay blinked rapidly, not sure wherether to be flustered or ashamed. "I believe that I know how to handle my charge better than you, thanks. Here heart is too fragile; it needs some toughening up. There was a quick flurry of Ballama body as he shook himself and lashed out a Baun, to retaliate her shove. It seemed as if all of the little creatures were rude and unkempt. "There is no reason for my darling Cura to be up there. Down with her!" Without much consideration for the other Kuhna, Kay forced his way beside the Citrus and prodded her, testing for wakefulness. "Fruitpaw, rise. Life beckons."
There was no response.
"Cura-tsumei?"
Motionless.
"Are you even in here?" A smooth, dry tongue caressed her cheek.
Cold.
With a disdainful look at the other Ballamas, the one assigned to a defenseless kit hung his head in shame. "They've captured her. It's all up to me to save her. Up to us."
There could be no mistakes this time.

[Icy Rose]

[center]Buan got attacked by Kay, but it was over quickly.

Buan stared it disbeilef. "They've tooken her?" she said, and then poked the kuhna kit again. Buan and Bright hung their heads.
"It is up to us."

Xunhba stared at the kit on her back. "Is-Is the dead?"

Xuhnba wished not, it would be like losing another friend. But last time it was Xuhnba's sister Tsua. He shook his head, memory's flooded his mind, and he didnt want to see them now. He wasn't a fan of flash-backs and memory's, they just werent his thing.

Senbria payed no attention what so ever. She curled up in the tree hallow.

[Dawnhawk]

[center]Another glimpse at the others told Kay that they were serious about this. "Yes, sadly, they've taken her life essence away. But she's not dead... Yet. If we don't get there soon enough and rescue her, there can be no hope. Let us forge on then. All those who wish to come, sit in a circle with me. Departure is quick."
Inhaling only slightly, the Ballama placed his rump on the damp soil. With a disgusting schnak, the limp body of Cura-tsumei fell to the ground. "The things inside of her know we wish to aid her. Do everything within your power to ignore it."
A dry, crackling hum struck itself up in Kay's throat, calling upon his magic to summon the land of her torture.
It felt as though the only thing left buzzing inside of him was the droning of his hope...
Nothing to do but wait. Nothing but the constant waiting.
Admittance was easy.
Camoflage was easier.
Acceptance was the hard part. If you weren't accepted by at least one other creature, it was off with your head.


If you were lucky.

[Icy Rose]

[center]Senbria overheard, and sat in the circle with the others. Xuhnba joined no doubt.

Baun and Bright hummed as well, for help was the one thing. They needed to help, to get into the land which was torture to her. This would be hard. To get past everything....but it was easy to get by without anyone noticing you... just.... getting around with your paws is hard.

Xuhnba stared down at the ground. What was happening? He couldn't understand anything! He glared over at Senbria. What was she doing here? Did she overhear.. when she was in the tree? He shook his head and looked at Kay, Baun, and Bright.

[Dawnhawk]

[center]There was really no imminent disaster, so Kay made sure that he proceeded correctly. With another large gulp of air and a giant pop, he was gone.

Cura-tsumei was giggling in a malignant manor, an odd way of expressing depression. "Lookiesee, rat, no way am I gonna eat that slop. You get out of my way or there shall be some serious consequences. My darling Kay's got me quite the curse now, so if you've got something on your mind..." The gigantic reddish tan rat looming over the Citrus had her baffled.
At first.
After a few minutes listening to him lecture her on the proper way to enter Malfia, trust was bridged between his eyes.
No, I do not mean the emotion. I mean the demon.
It was a small purple auraed black thing with no apparent shape except for white, beady eyes and a snare for a mouth. It was the evilest being you could possibly meet, with no intention of mercy for anything except for the rodent.
Who was Sharptalon.
((Won't be back on 'til the end of the world, so don't expect me to have large and plentiful replies. FYI))
