A Furry world of nature...

[Dr. Strange]

She leaned to the side and crawled to the entrance, reaching her hand down lazily. "I hope no one has to suffer because I stepped in..." She looked over the lip and screamed. "TEZZTOR!" Her eyes widened in shock as she scrambled down the treacherous rock, grabbing his arm. "What're you doing here?"

[Somebody]

"I came to ssee if you were alright, I saw you get cut by that other lizard" Tezztor almost cringed calling the other one a lizard. He hated giving somebody so dark in nature the same label as himself. He paused for a moment. "Despite all that happened I sstill can't fly" he said half jokingly, half seriously poking at the fact there was a cliff between him and the entrance to her den.

[Dr. Strange]

She nodded, flying down to pick him up. "I know you don't like flying much but bear with me here." She groaned, holding him close to her chest and sweeping her wings down then back up to push her. She folded them to her sides slightly and coasted up on a draft of wind. "There..." she panted, laying him gently on the lip in front of her den. "Wow, you're light."

[Somebody]

Tezztor nodded, "Yess my size often misleads people" he said giving the best answer he could think of. "Where did you put the intruder?" He was curious and it probably was written all over his muzzle. He tried to fake interest in the magical doorway to hide his concern for the scar the chameleon had given her. It didn't particularly sit well with him. "So how do you open thiss door?"

[Dr. Strange]

"The scar will fade with time." She replied, answering his unasked question. "I don't mind the curiousity, it's alright." She looked at the door and smiled sadly. "It works with pulleys and levers. The lever there moves that pulley over there to close it. The other lever pulls the second, more complex pulley to open it." She laughed to herself, moving the levers to demonstrate. "I have him in the other room. Sen'll take care of him."

Attica had missed everything as if she had been in a powerful trance. It was as if her blood burned due to her two completely opposite natures clashing as she was engulfed in black flames. Her more powerful side urged her to grip what life flourished in this place and destroy it while the more righteous angelic side fought a hopeless battle to stop her. As she levitated in the black fire, her three-fingered hands and feet extended into claws, her fangs grew longer, her eyes grew a brighter yellow, and transparent cuffs of light attached to broken chain links appeared around her wrists and ankles. In a flash of light, her clothes had changed from her usual garb, to snowy white attire: a tattered open backed tank top and ripped up capris with lacing down the calf. A grin spread across the half-demon's face as she touched the ground, the grass around her feet dying as it touched her. She whipped her tail with anxiousness, ready for the chaos as the flames around her subsided only still burning around her hands and eyes.

[Dr. Strange]

"Besides, I was stupid enough to stand in his way so I deserve what I got. I can handle it." She looked at the scar again, frowning. "I've been throught worse, trust me." She murmured.

[Somebody]

Tezztor didn't approve of such things happening but he forced a comforting grin and made a "ladies first" gesture torwards her den entrance

[Dr. Strange]

Leading him in, she pointed out the kitchen and the living room and the bedroom. All set off by half walls. "Sorry for the small spacing." She blushed, stopping in the center to sweep her arms. The den was a lot bigger than most she'd seen but the biggest she had been in wasn't her own.

[Nintai Tamashii]

Nintai sighed and stared at her reflection in the lake. Her face was the same, except for her eyes, but she didn't recognize herself. "My name is Nin-no... I'm no longer Nintai or Mei. My name....is Kurayami...Fukyuu Kurayami....." She told herself with the slightest ease. As if she was never any other person than who she was now.

(since it's japanese the last name goes first)

[Dr. Strange]

"Well, what do you think of my humble home?" She whirled around slowly, laughing.

[Sen]

Sen looked down, and took a deep breath, sensing great evil down where the confrontation with Dzas took place.  He quickly walked over to Sam, taking her by the shoulder and turning her toward himself, hissing to her, "Do you feel it?  The abomination of death and plague of chaos and destruction that beckons for us?  Do you not hear it?  It's down there, and it wants our blood, as well as all that inhabit the forest.  You call me stupid, and that my foolishness will lead to the destruction of this forest, but this humble spit of land has been more home to you than any other place.  Before you have arrived, this forest was nothing but a desolate forlorn swamp.  I took this place from Dzas, but for the good of everyone else.

"If I hadn't taken my rightful place here as guardian of the newly grown forest, then surely he would've made everything around him a swamp."  Sen turned, walking over to where Dzas hung, pointing up a furious paw at him, almost yelling.  "THAT is why he's back.  He wants his land back, and I'll be damned if I'm going to let him have it.  With every breath in my body, I will defend this place to the death.  There is nothing you can do to stop me.

"If we ignore the ongoing war between what is righteous and what is chaos, then the peaceful mountaintop that you call home will soon be destroyed.  If you look down the face of your mountain, you can see that there is still great evil lurking, calling for us.  As a being of light, I am obligated to rectify the cause of the darkness.  Now stay here if you want, do what you'd like to Dzas, but don't kill him.  Leave that to me.  Seal up the entrance to your den after I leave."  Sen slowly walked to the entrance, encasing himself in holy crystal.

"You say that I fight out of stupidity... I fight out of honor and and undying passion to defend what's mine.  I fight for the lives of people like you that are willing to just turn their cheek away from a dying comrade.  I fight to keep you alive.  Call it stupidity, but I call it a good reason."  Sen turned around, running and diving off the edge of the cliff, spreading his brightly-glowing wings wide, taking flight and gliding down to the demonic being.

Attica's powers spiked as if in anger as Sen approached, a few trees and brush around her instantly decaying and withering to nothing in a flash of black fire. Hello, darkness. The half demon's dark powers were now controlling her rather than her controlling them.
The holy crystal armor that protected the white wolf seemed to strengthen the shackles of light around her wrists and ankles, making her powers calm for the moment. Her eyes dimmed and she stumbled a few steps forward as if confused, in the pit of death in which she had created. She was trying to fight off the black entity that made her so strong, but it seemed to be too late for that now. She cackled as if to mock the chains that were trying to suppress her, and released a small bit of energy, an aurora that killed the wild life around her as she strolled to the lake.

[Nintai Tamashii]

A sudden shrill shrieking rang through Kurayami's ears, causing her to cover them in a futile attempt at blocking the sound out. She could here so many voices at the same time it was painful, but she resisted the urge to scream out in pain. After a few moments the shrieking had stopped and only one voice could be heard.

'Well well....you've remembered then name I originally gave you....my perfect creation is finally back to her old self again...'

Kurayami's heart nearly stopped. She could never forget that voice. Her creators' voice. But why she could hear him now and what he was talking about didn't make any sense to her.

'...A-akuma...you...what do you mean...old self. I-I'm nothing like this! I can't be! I was a mistake, an experiment gone wrong!'
'Hmm, this is a disappointment. Seems like it hasn't all come back to you yet....I won't confuse you any more than you already seem to be....'
'Wait, what are you talking about! tell me!!'

Kurayami sighed. It was too late, she could feel his presence in her mind any more. "....What....what really happened to me...."

[Sen]

Sen let out a loud bark of anger, the demonic entity tainting the purity and holiness of the lake water.  Right above the dark being, he folded his wings back, spikes growing out of his armor, quickly drawing his katana, and letting himself plummet down ontop of the demon.  "I will not let you take this forest, you foul deity!"  As he fell, he got into proper position to slash away at the being.
