Shemyasha: Chapter 1

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

* That morning was silent, crystal clear in its perfection. Mist clinging to the ground and rising over the forested mountains. Dew glittering on the soft green grass under the thick canopy of trees. The air was still crisp from the nights chill, but it would soon be warm. However, the forest silence was interrupted soon by the thunderous sound of horses. Riders. The beast galloping down the forest road, they were four. Five riders in dusty, dirty cloaks, faces obscured by darkness. They all wore weapons, swords and shields, and they appeared dirty and battle worn.

"Hey Elizka?" a female voice called out over the thundering sound. "Where is that town you promised?! My ass can taste the leather by now! I want my bed and a hot bath!"

Chuckles from a couple of the other riders were heard.

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

"Patience, my white lioness~" The leader called back over his shoulder. "We'll get there! Soon....just around these--"

A explosion was heard and for a moment the early morning became night once more. The sky crackled with energy and the horses screamed out their neighs of terror. The warriors cursed and struggled to keep the animals from bolting. But they were seasoned riders and so they managed to remain on the animals backs.

What the HELL is that?! a hoarse young male voice screamed.

Demons! another cursed. The leader drew his sword. In the shadow of the hood, a pair of bright, poison green eyes, no whites, flared.

Elizka! Wait! The female cried out, cursing colorfully. They all quickly drove their frightened horses after the vanishing shape of their leader.*

Tia says:

*The smooth marble floor was cold under his splayed toes. The rustling of a pale silk robe as a slim body shifted. A slim hand took up an incense candle, moving it to a higher shelf. There was something happening outside, but he was not going to wander out when the tales of demons near the temple had grown more and more frequent. He shivered, bi colored eyes flickering down the darkened hall*

*Something was happening and he did not know what. The boy, not really a true boy at all, was worshipped here. Why, he did not know. He did not speak well the language those of the temple spoke, but they often talked of the bi-sex god they worshipped and of him.*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

*Suddenly the incense candle was snuffed out. A sudden wind blowing through the room. It did the same to all candles...even the lanterns, leaving the hidden temple chamber dark. But not for long...A eerie warm red light suddenly filled the room. Without no apparent source, it made the shadows swirl and shape unnaturally and monstrous. There was the sound of chamber doors slamming shut...or open...Unnaturally loud to the poor boy, that was not a true boy s sensitive ears. And then, there was only silence. *

Tia says:

*Startled, he looked up, hugging his henna adorned arms about a slim, leanly muscled body. What was that...? The boy's ears flicked forward, tail between his legs as he shifted back, grabbing a dagger glittering with jewels.*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

*But as his hand closed on the jeweled hilt, a strong fingers encircled his slender wrist and held it firmly. Gradually he could feel the presence materialize behind himself. Tall and strong.... He heard the quiet, slow breath against his ear. Could almost hear the smile when a deep, rich male voice spoke. "At last....It was such a bother finding you..." A strong arm encircled him from behind, hugging his lower body tight against. "Did they harm you?....those foolish mortals....Do not worry...Shemyhasa...I'm here now....You will soon be where you belong..." And then lips, warm and soft were pressed against his neck.*

Tia says:

*The boy tensed, his hand trembling, the knife glittering in the light of the brazier. "Get off me..." He growled softly, his eyes wide and frightened. He knew that name; he had heard it before somewhere... "My name is Mya, you have the wrong person." *

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

*A chuckle. "Mya?...So that is what you call yourself?.....No, Shemyasha...I would recognize your smell....your taste...anywhere...." fingers slipped in through the robe to caress the boys belly, under the navel. Painting a loving circle. "No matter how time passes....I will never forget, the feeling of you..." Mya was spun around. The male, wearing loose fitting, pale clothes, open at the chest, was tall, Mya barely reaching him to the collarbones. He had a beautifully shaped, face, with fair skin and high cheekbones. Slanted golden eyes and a mane of pale hair, like white gold. And a horrid slash scar slanted over the right side of his face leaving the eye there a white, dead orb, staring down at Mya. The hands on Mya s skin were strong...and clawed. Claws painted with gold...and small pearls. The feline ears adorned with gold pearls and rings...and he had two tails, both covered in long, silky white fur to match his hair. You will be mine...once more...." And Mya found himself pressed down against the cold floor of stone.*

Tia says:

*Startled, the boy cried out in alarm as he was pushed to the floor and held there by a much larger body. The man was huge and he looked rich, which frightened him all the more. Shemyasha... where had he heard the name before!?

" No! P-please! I am untouched!" He cried, pushing at the other in alarm.*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

* The one-eyed, fair male stared down at him and something akin to hurt showed on his face. Claws dug in lightly into Mya s golden skin. "I would never...abuse you....I seek to free you...." Mya s clothes were spread open in one swift motion and the clawed hand slipped over his flat chest, brushing over one nipple gently. "Do you not remember...you were mine..." He leaned down, seeking to kiss Mya*

Tia says:

*The boy blushed, his hands up near his cheeks, slim body spread out before the other. "N-no... I only remember finding m-myself here..." He replied. He thought he had always lived here. The others lips touched his, making him blush further, unable to shove the other off.*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

*Mya was kissed. Hot lips against his own, fingers caressing the side of his neck and his long hair. The hand on his belly mover further down, caressing over his pelvic bone and the soft curls of pubes, slipping in between his legs, to slowly, gently, feel that area, so different from a normal boy. The fingers moved slow, but with such familiarity. As if the man knew exactly where to touch in order to make Mya squirm and gasp. Mya was pinned under his weight, the dagger left gleaming dully on the floor...*

Tia says:

*The boy tensed and gasped, the soft flesh touched slowly and tenderly by the others fingers, brushing the smooth flesh. A jolt of pleasure went through him, a tiny whimper escaping Mya's lips as the bigger male claimed his lips and caressed soft flesh.*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

*One finger worked Mya s sex, teasing it until it was slick and wet. Hot and throbbing to the touch. He rubbed the sensitive area repeatedly, gazing tenderly...yet hungrily...down at the youth. "Mine...." A unusually long tongue licked over Mya s lips and then the man pressed his smiling face against the youths neck, sucking, nibbling and kissing the velvety soft skin.*

Tia says:

*The burn started by the larger male caused Mya to shiver and mewl wantingly, blushing from how much of a whore he was being. But his fingers touching and caressing felt too good.

*his slim tail curled, thrashing on the floor as the long tongue slipped over his lips and then down to his throat, kissing at the soft, unmarred flesh.*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

*One blunt finger rubbed over Mya s wet opening slowly, carefully. And the man leaned down to whisper into the youths trembling ear. "You are making it so hard for me to resist...Just having you here and now on this floor...Make you mine again and this time forever " A brush of sharp teeth against Mya s ear and Mya could feel the hugeness of the mans erection press against him through that oh so thin layer of cloth. Then suddenly there was a deafening sound, the lights in the room flaring and then shrinking. And the gate to the room was slammed open. And there stood a nightmare like apparition. A blood smeared face, one side obscured by long black bangs like the wet feathers of a drowned raven. The one visible eye a slit of red fire, long feline teeth bared in a snarl. A face that might be beautiful, but right now looked like the painted mask of a murderous beast.

The nightmare apparition wore a heavy black armor that Mya thought looked familiar, and a ragged mantle hung from his shoulders like broken and torn dragon wings. He was swiftly moving towards them, leaping at them. A sword gleamed in the dark, metal sticky with blood. Dark, almost black blood. It swept in a wide hissing bow and struck the surprised, white-haired one in the side. The white male hissed and his face was suddenly not at all pleasant, feral and fanged like a serpent. "YOU!" He spat. The nightmare vision growled. It was the rolling sound of a tigers rage. A long, almost serpent like black tail, whipped behind him. His ears were badly scared and jagged, pressed against the black-haired head.*

Tia says:

*Frightened, Mya rolled away, hiding behind a small lounge couch, his eyes wide and terrified as the two males snarled at each other. He had no idea what was going on, only that he had come so close to being ravaged by the strange white-haired male and that now, something violent was going on. *

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

*Mya heard a roar of pain and hissing of metal. And bodies that moved, snarled and fought. The shadows in the room seemed to dance like mad and the air felt hot and hard to breathe. And then he saw the dark one being tossed through the room to slam into the wall. The wicked looking feline slowly slidd down the wall, smearing blood on the wall as he collapsed to his knees.

He roared in agony as three long, blood red, barbed spear like objects slammed through his shoulder, nailing him on place.

You should be dead, pitiful half-creature! the fair one hissed and held his hand raised. The spears seemed to be coming out of his raised hand. They were dripping of blood Why do you still struggle? That one red eye stared with such hatred up at the other one and suddenly the air around him cracked with energy and the lances broke. The room turned pitch black. The fair one stood there, surrounded by boiling shadows wrapping tighter and tighter around him. And then, with a enraged scream, he vanished. Outside there was suddenly a sound of explosions, greater than the previous ones. The room shook, the walls cracked, dust and small pieces of the ceiling falling down. And then everything was silent and dark.*

*Mya screamed in fear, covering his head at the loud sounds and the roars of hate and savagery. And then it was over and he was left trembling, eyes wide. He got up slowly, peering around shakily, his ears flattened and tail trembling.*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

* He heard a sound behind him and then strong hands grabbed him, lifting him up carefully...or perhaps just exhausted. And he found himself cradled in the arms of someone smelling of blood. Cold metal of a black armor against his own skin.*

Tia says:

*May cried out, hitting weakly at the armor covered chest, his bi-colored eyes wide and frightened.

"Let me go! Let go!" He cried, quivering in fear that this one would be after the same thing.*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

* He heard a tired gruff. "Shut...up..." and then he was being carried out of the place. The chamber door was slammed open and he was momentarily blinded by grey light. He was outside...And what he could see there was horrible. The temple laid in ruins, everything except the chamber that he had been in. And beyond it...the town had been devastated. No building was left standing and not a living soul was visible. The air smelled of death and fire. The one holding him was the one in the black, spiked armor. One side of his face was obscured by the curtain of long black hair and the pale cheeks smeared by blood. He took a step, armor clinking in the silence, and then another one. The look in his one, visible, red eye was unreadable. Cold and hard.*

Tia says:

*Biting his lip, Mya went silent, but it did not stop his angry, frightened glaring at the man. He was scared, yes, but he was also very angry that the man was so boldly taking him from his home. And then he saw it... the utter destruction of all he had known and he screamed, hitting the other in a mindless rage. "How could you!?"*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

*The man s one blood red eye widened a little at that and he made a move to grab Mya and hold him still. Capturing the youths wrists in iron clad hands he stared down at him. "...." He frowned, looking as if he would say something, but instead he groaned quietly. His one red eye grew unfocused and he staggered, armor clinking. He managed, somehow, to put Mya down....before he collapsed to his knees. The long, black tail, whipped slowly back and forth and he panted. And then suddenly there was the sound of approaching horses. A crossbow bolt hit the wall next to the kneeling mans head. "Don't move!" a female s voice. Five riders were approaching. Five wide eyed soldiers, one woman and four males. And they all looked shocked at the sight of what had happened to the town...and of the sight of the kneeling figure.

"It is him...Oh gods..." one of the males hissed. The one in the lead pulled down his hood, revealing long, golden red hair framing a dark velvety grey skinned face. "Boy....move away from him..." He drew his sword and slipped off the horse. Holding one arm out for Mya to take, in the other he held the elegant sword aimed at the kneeling one. He angry...and terrified....but even so he moved towards the armor clad one and Mya*

Tia says:

*Mya shrank back, baring his teeth. He was afraid, who to trust when so many strangers had come to him today and none of them had boded anything good for him. His robes still hung slightly open, baring his chest and creamy gold thighs. "Who are you?" He hissed, eyes frightened as he moved away from both the men.*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

*The man looked at Mya as if seeing him for the first time. I am Elizka Maeve, former captain of the tiger claw unit...." The armored one made an attempt to stand up and Elizka hissed. He leapt towards Mya, pulling him out of the dark armored ones reach and then, with a growl, slammed the broad side of his sword against the side of the tall mans face. The red-eyed one collapsed onto his back and was very still then. Elizka stood over him. He looked triumphant, yet confused. The others were approaching like wary animals. "Is he dead?"

"Hey kid? You alright?" the woman called out looked at Mya, concerned, her hair was white with red tops, her ears the same and her eyes a beautiful blue*

Tia says:

*Mya shrieked, clawing at the man in armor before going still and trembling, his little face fierce and angry at all the man handling. He did not like it at all! Stupid men! He glanced sharply at the woman, pouting out his lips. "No! Everyone keeps touching and grabbing me!" He wailed, shoving at the big male holding onto his slim waist.*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

*Elizka let go of him to approach the fallen one and the other males did the same, looking nothing less of murderous, whilst the woman tore off her mantle and walked up to Mya, offering to wrap it around him as protection. She was a tall woman, straight-backed and proud with a tail held elegantly in a curve behind her. A scar was across her throat as if someone had tried to take her head off and failed. Her gentle blue eyes were filled with sympathy as she watched the small, slender youth.*

Tia says:

*He shivered under the mantle placed gently about his shoulders. "There was another one, with pale hair; they got in a fight..." He muttered softly, brows furrowed, "Pale one kept calling me Shemyasha...." He frowned, looking distressed and tiny.*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

*She looked down at him "Shemyasha..." frowning a little and looking thoughtful. "...Do not worry, we will not let him touch you...." she glared at the armored man, being chained up by the others and stripped of his armor and weapons. Under it he wore only simple, worn and ragged clothes.

"....We must bring him to the capital....to stand before justice..." Elizka told the others who looked keen on tearing the male to bloody ribbons.

"Justice? The same justice he showed our countrymen? That he showed these humans? ....Showed my brother...Justice is dead!" The youngest male growled. He wore his hair blond, ruffled. His eyes were bright green and clever and he stuck his jaw out cockily against their leader, his ears tilted back with anger.

"Damon..." Elizka murmured. Then they were all silent, as if something was being exchanged between them silently. The woman gently squeezed Myas shoulder. A reassuring gesture.*

Tia says:

*Mya growled and yanked himself from her arms, walking up to the chain man and kicking him. "Who are you!?" He shrieked, "Who was the other one, what the fuck do you want from me!?" His ears were flicked back angrily, eyes narrowed. He stood tall, looking like a gold statue, revealing the regal nature that had made a whole tribe worship him as a god. "Tell me!" He snarled, grabbing the sword from someone's sheath and holding it to the man's throat, eyes burning angrily at his near ravagement and the destruction of his home. He did not care if the man was unconscious, he would beat it out of him.*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

* The five mercenaries appeared stunned at Mya s sudden and explosive anger. The man, now awake, if barely, laid there on his back and the long, silken black hair had slipped from his face to reveal that, indeed, the skin on one side of his face was a pure black. The eye there burned a cold blue. The half-closed, red eye, gazed up at Mya...but he did not say anything for a while, only watched the slender youth and the sword. His clothes were sticky with blood and the wound from those spears was a ugly one

"Iokastaz...Tigon...Vidamiz..." he murmured. "....Can not, let them take you...Shemyasha" His eyes slipped shut, his breathing heavier. "My...master..." *

Tia says:

*The boy's eyes went wide and he stumbled back, sword held out before him. His chest heaved, ears tightly flicked back against his head. "Why do you call me Shemysha, you and the other, why?" he demanded, voice shaking and tail flailing behind him in agitation*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

* "It is your name..." the man sighed. "Shemy......ah..." and then he was silent. Unconscious. The little group was silent and so was the surrounding.

Finally the blonde spat. ".....Who is going to take the bastard on his horse....personally I say, we drag him after us all the way back until all that is left of him is rattling bones!" No one else said a word. Elizka gave Mya a thoughtful look. "....You are lucky to be alive boy..." he murmured. "Unbelievably lucky..." Damon murmured and he watches Mya with suspicion rather than sympathy.*

Tia says:

*"Don't you dare..." Mya hissed at the blond, easily pointing the sword at the man, his eyes narrowed. "This man knows something, you hurt him and I will personally chop your manhood from your body." He snarled softly, ears still laid back in agitation. No one but him was going to hurt the black haired man. Mya was going to see to that.

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

* The blondes ears slicked against his head and his tail fizzed up. "Watch your mouth you twerp!" He hissed. "This monster killed my brother!" he spat. "I'd rip his heart out in an instance! I'd--" Elizkas hand on his shoulder quieted him. "We should move...this place is not safe..." The leader spoke, his low voice strangely calming.*

Tia says:

*Mya glanced sharply at them. "I'm not going anywhere." He mumbled and plopped right down on the ground, his body shivering. "This is my home..."*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

*The woman kneeled down in front of him. "...There is nothing for you here now..." she looked at him and there was a curious light in her eyes. What had one of their kind done here, in human territory like this. "....I promise, nothing will happen to you...We can not force you...but you should not stay here..." She tried to touch his hair in a gentle gesture of comfort. Two of the males dragged the man known as Iokastaz up from the ground and started carrying him towards one of the poor, nervous horses.*

Tia says:

*He flinched, quivering. "B-but.... I don't want to leave." Finally tears came to his eyes and began to slid down his cheeks, the sword clutched desperately to his breast. "All my things... the people..." He sobbed softly.*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

*She wrapped her arms around him and hugged him to herself, caressing his shoulders and murmuring comforting nonsense. Promising that she would help him and keep him safe. She helped him up on his feet and guided him towards the horse. Looking at one of the other warriors she ordered him silently to help her assist the boy up in the saddle with her. Somewhere in the distance, something monstrous howled. The horses neighed and danced fearfully, frightened by mere shadows. The unconscious, chained, man was put over the back of Elizkas horse. Sounds were heard from inside the forest. Terrible sounds...hungry sounds.*

Tia says:

*Mya trembled, ears pricked forward at the sounds. They seemed familiar and he wanted urgently to get out of here now. "G-go! go!" he wailed, tugging at the woman to get into the saddle so they could leave. The sound was getting closer and his henna covered hands were trembling.*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

*Damon cursed. "They're coming! Hurry!" and he was off, thundering down the forest path on his iron grey horse. The others were swift to follow. Elizka riding last, sword drawn. And out of the forest leapt horrid, lizard like creatures. Reaching out for them with their clawed hands, snarling and hissing. The woman cursed, her horse almost panicking, but she drove it on with iron hand. Mya could see them in the forest. Feasting in the shadows on the remains of the poor humans that had tried to escape. They appeared vaguely humanoid, some more monstrous, some almost human. All with bright glowing golden eyes. Like fires in the dark forest.

"Don't look at them!" the woman pleaded. Apparently she herself had looked because her face was pale as death, her expression agonized.*

Tia says:

*Mya closed his eyes tightly, clinging to the horse as she wheeled it and set it to pace. His whole frame trembled, toes curling as he clung to the rippling body of the horse under his legs as they galloped away. He had looked and the sight left him breathless.*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

*They rode on for what felt like forever when the air seemed to finally lighten around them daylight opening up in front of them and it truly was as if they had escaped some kind of nightmare realm A pure blue sky greeted them. They rode on, leaving the forest path behind and riding across fields, passing small villages in the distance. Eventually, they reached a small river and there they drew to a halt. To rest and allow their horses to drink. The woman climbed off and more or less lifted Mya down, letting him down by the water so that he could drink and wash himself. She herself sat down and Elizka and the other males taking turns to drink and then keep watch the way they had come. The prisoner seemed momentarily forgotten where he was, laying over the horse, his long hair obscuring his face.*

Tia says:

*Mya skittered down to the water and knelt, gulping down liquid to ease a thirst he had not known he had. He shivered, mewling softly before washing his face and then sliding gingerly out of his robes to wash himself, feeling dirty from being touched as he had been.*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

*The woman who had been sitting there guarding him appeared somewhat flustered and wide-eyed at the sight of Mya s...unusual...naked body. Elizka came down to them, carrying a bundle of clean clothes, many times to big for Mya, but at least they were clean.... he sat down and waited for Mya to return to the shore. The look on his face was troubled and he tried not to stare too much at the unusual young one.*

Tia says:

*Mya scrubbed himself till his skin was pinkish from the blood rising close to the surface. He shivered, teeth chattering as he climbed back out and shook the water off his lean, naked frame. "W-What? Why are you looking at me like that?" He asked, blushing.*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

* The woman averted her gaze and seemed at loss for words, and Elizka quickly gave Mya a blanket to wrap himself up in and to dry, and then gave him the clothes.

"What is your name?" he asked calmly, seeking Mya s eyes. He had a kind voice. Calming.*

Tia says:

*Flustered, the boy looked up at the other. "My name is Mya.... what is yours?" He asked softly, confused by their looks. Everyone who had seen him before had been awed. They seemed... confused.*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

* "I am Elizka, this is Kalitha, he nodded at the woman and then at the others by the horses, Damon, Rhys and Tszavon. We are mercenaries, we were planning on resting in that human city....when we came upon...this." Kalitha nodded silently as if confirming his words. "But...what were you doing in that temple? ....How did you get there? You are...far from our homelands. "*

Tia says:

* He looked confused. "Homeland...?" he asked softly, tail twitching slightly. He remembered nothing but the temple, the priests and priestesses that led the worship and the daily kissing of his slender hands by worshipping humans. He had known nothing more then that. "What do you mean? I have always been here."*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

*They exchanged glances. "You must have come here at a very young age..." Kalitha looked at him. "Our people live in the mountain and forest kingdom of Femrilah...Few of us ever leave....soldiers, merchants and...adventurous spirits..."Her tail swayed slowly. "You....are so young....You could never have made it all this way without help...." She looked somehow miserable... Elizka looked at him. "....We will take you there...If you want to come....Naturally we will not force you..."*

Tia says:

*He hugged himself, looking thoughtfully down at the ground. He knew no one here. He was all alone. "I.... will go with you." He replied softly, rising his bi-colored eyes. "I want to see this 'homeland'."

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

*Kalitha stood up and carefully placed a hand on his shoulder. "Don't be afraid...we'll take you there..." she looked at Elizka. "....You might have relatives...someone that recognize you..." Elizka nodded.*

Tia says:

*The little herm nodded, feeling small before them. He did not know if anyone would know him there, but it was worth a try. He sighed, smiling up at them. "And what of my servant?" He asked sarcastically, looking over his shoulder at where the dark one lay.*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

*Elizka frowned, confused and then followed his look. "....That one is going to be taken to the court for judgment...he's a war criminal...mass murderer...He is insane, and you should stay away from him and not listen to a word he say...." Kalitha nodded. "....He killed Damon s brother....Everyone of us has lost someone to that monster..."*

Tia says:

*The boy gazed at him thoughtfully, lips slightly parted. His gaze went vacant, eyes skimming the tall, lean body and up to the face. He was beautiful. "Oh.... ok..." He relied softly, frowning and ripping his gaze away.

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

* Elizka looked around. The sun was starting to set again, they had traveled the entire day to get as far away from the demon infested area as possible "We shall stay here for tonight and rest....continue early tomorrow- Kalitha and I will rise the tents and care for the horses. Damon- it is your turn to make food! Rhys, Tszavon, you guard!" And they did. Dragging the prisoner off the horse and over to a tree, tying the chained man up against the branch. The black-haired male did not struggle, nor make a sound, even as he was violently slammed up against the tree. His one red eye sought out Mya. His face was so still and calm. Tranquil.*

Tia says:

*The slim boy stared at him, unable to tear his eyes away. His tail flicked slowly behind him. Mya wanted to come over and touch the other, to check him out. He was so curious of him, frightened, but curious. "What is for dinner?"*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

*The blonde known as Damon snorted. "Stew." was the gruff reply. He was already picking out a pot and vegetables, spices, along with a package of fresh meat. The camp was slowly being made ready, tents risen, horses cared for, and soon there was a scent of spicy stew being made, and it did actually smell rather appetizing, despite the sour look on the young cooks face*

Tia says:

*The boy wrinkled his nose at first, but the smell was nice. He cooed softly in pleasure at the smell of warm stew and he strode over, head cocked to watch the food cook. He had never seen anyone cook food before...*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

*After a while the blonde looked up at him, hard green eyes tense. "....." he picked up a small wooden bowl and poured stew into it. "Here...have a taste. " he stuck it out in the boys direction, refusing to look at him. Sullen. The stew smelled most delicious, even if it did not look very remarkable- most certainly not up to the standard of the food that Mya was used to...*

Tia says:

*The little creature took it gingerly and Mya took a sip after blowing on the hot stew. His lips curled in a smile. "It is very good..." he uttered before sipping down the rest in his little bowl.*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

*Damon looked up at him. "....You will have to wait until the others return for more." he muttered. He seemed to avoid eyes, as if he was shy...or distrustful....or maybe a bit of both. The soldier could not be more than maybe a couple of years older than Mya but already he had plenty of scars. Small cuts on his cheeks. His skin was incredibly fair and his hair almost ashen blonde. Soon there after the others gathered and they were all served more portions, Mya was told by the kind Kalitha that they had made a own tent for him. A smaller one in the midst of the other tents.*

Tia says:

*He nodded, holding his half eaten bowl close to him. When asked what he was doing with it, he told them he ate slowly and that his stomach was delicate. He had other plans for the stew though. Mya went to bed soon enough, the bowl tucked close and he waited till they were all asleep or on guard duty before sneaking back out.*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

*The last one to go to bed was Damon who had paced around by the tree, growling silently and murderous. Elizka however ordered him to go to his tent and the leader and the youth had argued heatedly, ending with Damon stalking off to his tent. Damon wanted them to off the prisoner and he had a row of interesting suggestions on how they should do it. Elizka was not impressed or interested, holding on firmly that it was in the hands of the law of their kingdom and not theirs.

Eventually though, Only Elizka was up and about, out somewhere in the nearby forest to keep watch. Leaving only the Mya and the horses awake in the camp....and the dark prisoner. He sat there in the dark, his one red eye glowing dully.*

Tia says:

*The boy slunk out, bowl in hands and hurried over to the man, kneeling by him and gently holding the bowl of cold stew to the man's lips. "Hungry?" He asked softly. He was not a cruel person and he wanted to know more from the male. Perhaps if he was kind the other would talk more... "Please eat.... it is very good."*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

*One red eye locked with Mya s and the male slowly licked at the contents. His eyes slipping shut in a kind of...pleasure...relief. After a while he looked up again, licking his lips. A flash of incredibly sharp, white fangs in the dark. " Thank you master..." his voice was no more than a whisper. Soft and quiet*

Tia says:

*Mya flushed, unused to being called that and he nodded. "You are welcome..." He replied softly, "Tell me more... of myself..." He asked softly, sitting down by the dark male, head cocked. "I am afraid... I do not remember."*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

* "You are Shemyasha...General of the eight legions of fire" He murmured. "My master...and protector of the people of Femrilah...Worshipped and adored.....captured and taken away...lost." His eyes blinked, tiredly. "I have searched for you a long time...Even after your followers were shattered...." *

Tia says:

*" And the other.... why was he trying to have... sex with me?" He blushed hotly, eyes half closed as he listened to the other. They must have him confused with someone else. He did not remember ever being a general, even though he could easily wield sword and dagger. It was all so confusing to him.*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

A shudder ran through the other and his red eye flared. A low growl. Hearing what the white one had attempted with Mya apparently agitated him. "Demon lord Alzamahr....He wants you...he has always wanted you..." a quiet whisper. "What more he is after...I do not know...you never told me..."*

Tia says:

Tia says:

*Mya hugged himself, The names, they were familiar to him, but where he had heard them before he could not place. "Ahh... I see." He replied softly, looking away slowly, teeth nibbling his bottom lip. He was frightened, he did not know whether it was wise to trust this man or not.*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

*He looked at Mya in silence. The cold blue eye and the red glowing dimly in the dark. It was as if he studied the youth as if he wanted to burn the image of him into his memories."....I have murdered innocents...It was not the purpose that you had created for me..." A hoarse whisper. Those scarred ears sunk, a small display of sorrow. He leaned his head back against the tree. "...You should...return to the tent...The soldier is right....I am not to be trusted." *

Tia says:

*Mya nodded slightly, bidding him a good night before slinking back to his tent. Not what he had made him for....? He sighed, thoroughly confused and conflicted by these sudden events. What was he to do? Sighing, Mya slipped into his tent and sat down on the bedding they had provided for him, milling over the other man's words.*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

*Mya, if he slept at all, was left to alone until early morning when the white-haired lady Kalitha politely called for him from outside and told him that water had been heated up and made ready if he wanted it. She waited outside for him to guide him there, should he wish to*

Tia says:

*He came out, looking tiny in the clothing that had been provided for him. He thanked her, smiling sweetly as he allowed her to lead him to it. It would be nice to rinse himself off again, he had had nightmares and had tossed and turned all night, fighting off a big male trying to ravage him.*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

*There was a wooden wash-tub ready for him inside one of the tents. Elizka nodded at them as they passed and the others seemed to be busy readying for their leave. Kalitha had readied a small bar of soap and decently clean towels. "I will wait outside...just call out if you need something." She murmured, giving him a brief smile before slipping out.*

Tia says:

*He nodded and slipped into the tent, stripping shyly. He gazed down at his naked body, flushing as he sat eyes on his nether regions. Those had been touched for the first time the day before, warm and wet and he bit his finger to stall the memory. No more of that! Mya quivered and slipped shakily into the bath, scrubbing himself all over again as if trying to erase the memory of the touches.*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

*Outside the others prepared and when Mya was done they picked down that last tent and finished packing. The last things gathered on the one package carrying horse. "Do you want to ride with me?" Kalitha offered Mya. The prisoner was once again lying thrown over the back of one of the horses. He looked limp and did not seem intent at all on fighting what ever destiny was to bring him at the hands of those that would judge him*

Tia says:

*Mya nodded, his eyes flicking over to the dark one again. He still wanted to touch him and get to know him and that bothered him more then he wanted to admit. He had to ask for help. He was small and climbing onto the back of a horse in such baggy clothes was not going to work at all. Of course, he did look cute trying to pull himself up, ears flicked back sharply.*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

*Kalitha tried hard not to chuckle at the sight as she reached down and took his hand to pull him up. They were aided by Elizka who, putting his hands on Mya s waist and helped the slender youth up behind the female warrior. He gave the boy a brief smile and then turned and headed over to his horse, who would be carrying him and Iokastaz today. And they were off. Following the road along the river until they reached a small bridge made of stone, crossing it and continuing once again through forestland. A thick, dark forest where barely any daylight reached through.*

Tia says:

*Mya blushed, firmly seated now with his arms wrapped about Kalitha's waist. He sighed, peering up at her. "Who was Iokastaz before he was a mass murder?" He asked softly, curious as well... a cat. He smiled up at her, his soft, spotted ears flicked forward and his slim body pressed close.*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

*Kalitha looked at him in the corner of her eyes. "Well....it was rumored that once he was a prince Femrilah...sort of hard believing when you see him now....but even since I was a small kitten they have told stories about him...The war beast....He shows up where ever there is battle....and he kills all...demons...humans...our people...alike. There is no stopping him..." She frowned. "...he does not look so frightening now...even if he is clearly demon corrupted...that black skin and black hair...those eyes...he has been touched by demons...perhaps he have had them inside...Maybe they left him...maybe that is why he was weak enough for us to capture..." She was silent after that.*

Tia says:

*Mya listened, his face rested against her back. He milled her words over, curiously. "But what if he is only playing at being weak...?" He breathed softly. "Maybe he is waiting for something or someone..." *

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

*She looked at him, eyes a little wide. "Hmm.....What makes you think that?" she asked. "...As far as we know....the demons wants to kill him as much as we do....and the humans...." she shook her head. "No....something s wrong with him.....but I suppose it is not our thing to deal with....He will be in the hands of her majesty and the court soon enough..." she murmured.*

Tia says:

*Mya sighed, looking back at him with an almost painful ache in his chest. He ignored it, ears flicking back in agitation. The man looked so lonely.... Mya pulled lightly at the woman's sleeve. "How long till we get to this place you speak of?" He asked curiously, tilting his head.*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

*She smiled at him. She thought that he was absolutely adorable, like a restless child. Reminding her of her own daughter back home. Maybe they would meet when they got home?...She was sure that Mikita would adore this little beauty....

And then it happened. A cracking of wood from above. The horse let out a startled sound and then something fell down on them from above. Something huge, much bigger than the horse! It appeared like a dark mass of wriggling darkness, fastened to a snakelike, reptile body. Kalitha cried out a warning, drawing her sword. And then the darkness was over them, Mya felt himself drown in it, slimy appendages wrapping around him, capturing him like a mouse in the claws of a bird. One tentacle wrapped over the youths eyes, preventing him from seeing anything. And he heard Kalitha curse and scream. And then they were moved...being carried away from the path where the group had shattered, panicking horses and struggling, terrified riders. Elizka screamed out after them. But they were gone. The monster moved like liquid, among the trees, pulling itself forth and looking quite grotesque as it darted back and forth, now and then letting out screeching, deafening sounds*

Tia says:

*Mya was waiting for an answer when something cracked, like the snapping of something s spine and something was all over him, grabbing him and dragging him as he screamed in fear and struggled uselessly in the vile thing. Panic set in, knowing that death was a very high possibility. He would never see this homeland or anything ever again.*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

*And then suddenly the hellish ride stopped. Mya was raised up into the air above the writhing mass of tentacles and somewhere close by he could hear Kalitha scream in rage and terror.

"Well, well...what have we here..." a soft voice hissed and he could feel a slender, cold hand on his cheek." The tentacle slipped away from covering his eyes and instead was on his forehead, forcing his head back. Someone was levitating in the air above him. A pale, naked shape....with swirling greenish black hair. "Such tender meat I have not seen in very long...." pink lips smirked in a beautiful but terrifying face. Bright golden eyes were just a little bit too wide in that pale face. Insanity. A long, reptile like tongue licked over sharp teeth. "I wonder...which way to devour you...Hmm?" The tentacles were wrapping around his legs and arms, holding him spread-eagled and vulnerable.*

Tia says:

*Mya shook, his teeth bared in a terrified little snarl that sounded more kittenish coming from him then scary. His body tensed up, quivering in terror. "L-let me go!" He demanded, tail thrashing and eyes wide and frightened. Someone help, anyone! They were going to eat him!*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

* The pale demon levitated closer to him and Mya could see that he had a long, barbed tail, black and sleek like the tentacles and incredibly long, razor sharp as a weapon. He chuckled, tilting his head. "Let you go, before I even start with you both?" A gurgling sound was heard from somewhere nearby, a muffled female scream. And then tentacles slipped up inside Mya s clothes. They were slippery and cold and left trails of slime on his skin, up his legs and thighs, over his belly. The demon studied him. "You do seem familiar....Maybe I ate a relative of you a long time ago..." he purred. A strange horrible.... yet pleasant...heat was spreading through Mya, making him tremble and feel hot and weak.*

Tia says:

*The little one squirmed weakly, hissing. "I don't have any relatives." he snapped, blushing and struggling to get an arm free to push at the tentacles. "Let Kalitha go! Leave her alone!" he snapped angrily, though that hot feeling was making him weak and trembly.*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

*The demon giggled. "Oh, if you don't have any relatives - that would explain a lot! Mmm...I must have ate them all, If they looked half as good as you!" Suddenly the demon startled and hissed as if from pain. "Stupid bitch...ohhh she will regret that..." He wrapped his tail around Mya, slipping his hand in under the others tunic, caressing his belly. "You're so soft...and you smell so nice..." One tentacle wrapped around Mya s tail firmly as the other started to slowly, tear apart his clothes. Another enraged female scream was heard and then silence.*

Tia says:

*Mya struggled at the scream, "K-kalitha!" He shrieked, fearing she was dead. His body froze as he felt claws tear at his clothes and he struggled harder, managing to rip one hand away and push at the male. "No! Stop it!" He wailed, ears flicked back sharply in alarm as the other tore his pants from his delicate hips.*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

*The warmth was spreading like an infection through his body, making it sensitive and aroused, as well as sluggish. The demon ran one slender hand along Mya s taunt belly, from collarbone and down to his crotch, caressing him teasingly. "....Soon you will scream in a different way entirely...." he promised, eyes hungry as he studied the naked hermaphrodite. ".....I'll mate with you...Your body....there is something wonderful about it..." he leaned down, pressing his lips against Mya s chest, licking at his nipples teasingly. "Such power....I want it all for myself..."*

Tia says:

*Mya panted, eyes watering as he pushed at the other with one hand. What was it with men wanting him so much? He was the second that was after his slim body and he had no idea why! "Please don't, please..." He begged, sobbing and pushing at the creature desperately.*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

*The demon slipped his hand in between Mya s legs, caressing him and pushing one finger in quite carelessly. It sent a jolt of pain and pleasure through the youth and the reptile like parasite demon purred, rubbing his face against Mya s chest. But then suddenly he stiffened, his back arching and he hissed out a terrified cry. On the other end of the glade stood the dark one.

"You?!" The demon cried out, slipping away from Mya and rearing up as if balancing on his tail like a cobra. "I will kill you!!!" And at once all tentacles shot out for the dark one and all but buried him, capturing him and drawing him in. The young looking demon cackled. "Was that all?! I'll tear you limb from limb, half-breed! I'll---" and then he choked. Something red and sparkling with energy gleamed among the tentacles, cutting them off like thin threads. A broad red blade of a two hand sword. Iokastaz cut himself free and then stabbed at the writhing reptile body under him, each stab causing the pale demon to screech. The tentacles let go of Mya and he fell onto the writhing mass, slowly sliding down to the grassy ground. The demon squirmed and tossed and then, with a loud scream, slithered off in among the trees, howling with pain, leaving a slimy trail of blood and flesh. Kalitha was left on the ground, her clothes half ways torn off of her, drenched in the same slime as Mya. Her eyes were like a wild animals. Humiliated, angry, terrified. Terrified as she stared up at Iokastaz where he stood, surrounded by writhing tentacles laying on the ground by his feet. He still had the frightening red blade in his hands as he turned to Mya and started walking over to him*

Tia says:

*Mya was sobbing, clutching his sex and quivering in shame and arousal. His tail was tucked gingerly around his body, face hidden by one of his arms. He was angry, humiliated, but he was alive and he knew he had come so close to bad things yet again. He tried to sit up, feeling rubbery and weak, eyes reddened as the big male walked over to him and he blinked in surprise.*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

*Kalitha hissed. "GET AWAY FROM HIM!" a slurred, almost drunk sound. But she was in such a poor state she could not stand up or do anything to stop him.

And he did not listen to her hissed out threats. He kneeled down and the weapon faded from his hands. He pulled of the tattered remains of his own tunic and gently started to wipe the slime off of Mya. Gently grasping the others face and holding him as he wiped at his face and then at his neck and chest. The look on the dark ones face was tormented as he watched Mya sob and tremble.*

Tia says:

*The boy grabbed onto him weakly, crying and holding him shakily for support. He said nothing, trembling as the male gently cleaned the slime and gunk off his naked body, removing the foul stuff from his little face. The herm's sex was swollen and hurting, his body smelling faintly of sex and sweets, but it was weighed out by how small and vulnerable Mya looked as he clung trustingly to the man.*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

*He held Mya close, wiping him clean with care, like a lioness cleaning her cub.

His eyes displayed such sadness and concern behind the mass of black, bloodstained hair. His hairless chest was a contrast of black and white. Half side dark and sleek, the other pale and velvety soft. He bowed down, placing a butterfly kiss against Mya s forehead and then he picked the youth up, cradling him easily in his arms before walking over to Kalitha. He grasped the woman s arm without a word and helped her up. She moaned, face twisted in confused emotions as she looked up at him. As if she wanted to claw his eyes out or cling to him, weak with relief.

Can you walk? he asked her. She nodded and, after tying what was left of her pants together, she tore off her tunic and wiped herself off. Her chest and muscular belly was unscarred but she had one tattoo around her belly button. Starkly black against her pale skin.

She looked bitten together, agitated and flustered, as she walked, right behind them, staggering now and then. Her tail a tense bow.*

Tia says:

*Mya clung to him, arms wrapped about his neck and body shuddering. He was happy that Kalitha was ok, he had been so afraid the woman would be hurt. They were both humiliated, but they were ok. "T-thank you..." He cooed softly.*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

*He was offered a silent, half smile from Iokastaz and those strong arms hardened around him a little, as if the male was afraid that Mya would be pulled out of his arms. And then suddenly they were surrounded by the others. "Kalitha! Mya!" Elizka hurried over to them, his gray face fierce looking. The others had their weapons out, eyes flickering from their female friend, Mya...and the prisoner who had so easily escaped the chains and ran off.

However Iokastaz slowly sat Mya down and then, raising his arms over his head he kneeled, bowing his head. Surrendering.

Kalitha drew a shuddering breath. "...he drove the demon off...." she growled. A strange lustful sound that startled the males around them. The tattoo on her belly was melting, running like oily darkness down to the top of her pants.*

Tia says:

*Mya was forced to lean against the dark male, quivering still till he sank down to the ground beside him, unable to get his legs to move or even to keep them locked. He peered groggily at Kalitha, startled by her tone.*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

*Kalitha dropped the dirty remains of her tunic and walked straight towards Elizka, looking nothing less of predatory, and then she leaped at him. He looked wide-eyed but not surprised as she grabbed a hold of him and viciously pulled him with her. She made a half growl and mewl sound. The look on her face was that of hunger...The grey skinned male followed her meekly, letting out a mewling sound of his own.

"The demons skin....that mild poison works as an aphrodisiac..." Iokastaz murmured. "....The tattoo she wore kept her from going into heat...female soldiers use them all the time...The women are violent and unpredictable when in heat...usually they lock themselves up during those days..." There was a stunned silence after his words had been spoken.*

Tia says:

*Mya rested against him, curled up close and quivering still as he listened. Lucky Kalitha... He bit his lip, whining softly and hugging Iokastaz's arm tighter. He was scared and uncomfortable, loins burning with need.*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

(I wonder how Mya will be when he has heat...if he will be more like a female, aggressive in heat or more laidback and meek like the males are X3 )

Tia says:

(he'll be a little of both. >:3)

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

( X3 The women are SCARY! when they're in heat....It is like....young males are protected by the adults when their female peers strikes their first heat....because they might be ravaged and scarred for life if the females get their hands on them....so usually the young girls are herded up and taken away to live away from their homes until the first couple of heats have been lived through....X3 The females are way stronger than the males, Kalitha is actually a rather petite female because she's only about the same size as the average male!)

Tia says:

(Wow! I love her so much already. X3 )

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

*Damon was the one breaking the silence. "Tie him up. We'll make camp...." he cursed. "Why now...we will loose at least a couple of days on this...." he muttered. Rhys and the other males grabbed Iokastaz and dragged him off to the nearest tree, tying him back up again. They did not look at him this time...They worked in silence and discomfort. And then when that was done they hurried off, supposedly to fetch the horses. Damon turned to Mya. He seemed intent on not noticing the young ones distress "....There is a spring near by....let's get you washed off of that....* he shuddered

" Damned demons and their disgusting habits!" *

Tia says:

*Mya mewled in distress as the comfort of the big male was dragged from him, toppling him over into a little shivering pile on the grass. He wailed softly, ears flicked back in distress and he looked groggily up at Damon, vision swimming.*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

*Damon stared down at him, his eyes as blue as the sky above. And then, sighing through his nose he kneeled down and helped the youth up. "I'll carry you if I must..." he muttered between his teeth, helping Mya down towards the spring. Mya could feel Iokastaz gaze after him all the way down the forest slope.*

Tia says:

*Mya mewled, reaching for the dark haired man weakly as he was carried to the spring. He went still in Damon's arms, shivery and hot to the touch. The poor thing looked like he was aching horribly.*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

*Damon freed him from the last tatters of his clothes and helped him down in the cold water. It was a none to pleasant thing but it did help. It did take away the horrible burning feeling even if he was still horribly aroused, his lower belly and sex throbbing with longing...All he could think of was how good it would feel to press up against a strong body and Iokastaz eyes was on his mind the entire time. Burning ice and fire. Damon muttered, letting go of the youth.

"....That is demons for you...corrupting you...stealing your feelings or making you feel things you wish you could not fell...." he patted Mya s shoulder awkwardly. "...I'll wait by that tree..." and then he made it over to it, standing with his back to Mya and seemingly staring stubbornly at the branch as if he had spotted something extremely interesting there.*

Tia says:

*The boy shivered in the water, mewling sadly as he sat in it and let it wash the last bit of the gunk off. But it was already in his system and simply washing it away would not help much. Soon enough he slipped out and pattered naked past Damon and over to Iokastaz, crawling and curling up in his lap.*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

*Iokastaz stared down at the wet, naked youth and the others, that had returned, both looked sort of helpless, not knowing what they should or should not do. Eventually Damon returned and he put a blanket over Mya, covering him up. "Go back to your tent...get some sleep...he suggested, glancing up at the sky that was growing darker and darker. There would be rain tonight.... He glanced at Iokazta s, a flare of anger in his eyes. But did not say anything as he strode off to help the others with the horses.. Iokastaz hands were tied up behind his back but his tail was free and he wrapped it around Mya rubbing his naked back slowly. A quiet, rumble of a purr erupted from the man and he closed his eyes. "Master..." a soft, longing whisper.*

Tia says:

*The boy did not move, clinging to the big male helplessly, his eyes half closed he knew Kalitha was getting what she desired and Mya dearly wanted to make the pain go away. But he was scared and he little mewls were soft and desperate as he nuzzled his nose under the big male's jaw.*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

*Iokastaz stiffened slightly, feeling the slender body rub against him and that face nuzzle against his face. He let out a quiet gasp, through a tight throat. "It will be over...in a couple of hours..." he whispered tightly, Blue eyes glancing over at where the other three males had disappeared into a tent. "....You've been forced into this...fake heat..." He lowered his eyes, looking at Mya tenderly. And then Mya could feel the ropes slackening slowly, and arms slipped around him under the blanket. Iokastaz once again kissed the youths forehead. "...Master...What should I do?...Tell me what you want me to do..." his voice was so quiet...almost reverent. His hands resting on Mya s slender shoulders*

Tia says:

*Mya whimpered, shuffling under the blanket. "H-hurts..." he whimpered, nipping at the other demandingly, not sure what he was trying to do but knowing he wanted something done about the pain in his genitals. The dark one was the only one he could turn to. The others looked at him so oddly.*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

*Iokastaz breathed out hoarsely. His hand on Mya s shoulder rubbing slowly and he pulled the other closer to himself, arm around his waist, so that their bodies were pressed together, warm and hidden under the blanket. And then his tail slipped like a feathery brush over Mya s behind and thighs, entwining with the younger felines slowly, rubbing it. It sent sparks of pleasure straight up Mya s spine and behind his eyes.*

Tia says:

*The boy cried out softly, muffling it into the others neck. Every nerve was on fire, tingling hotly and so simple a touch made his body ache all the more. He breathed the others name shakily, eyes watering and glazed over with desire, little virgin body aching so badly.*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

*Iokastaz muscular body shivered under the youth and his arm tightened under the boy, his tail rubbing with more intention. "When I look at you....I remember things..." the dark warrior whispered quietly, voice thick. "Good things...Sad things..." He kissed Mya s eyelashes gently. "I searched for you...so long...Forgot everything...but the search itself." One hand slipped down in under Mya, caressing his naked belly in slow circles.*

Tia says:

*Glazed eyes looked up at him, the flicker of power in them shining brightly in his drugged state. He sighed sweetly, pressing the slim, hot length of himself against Iokastaz, breath hot and sweet as it fans softly against his neck and chest. "Mine...?" He cooed groggily. " My Iokastaz?"*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

*Iokastaz purred, nuzzling Mya s face and hair. " Yes " came the soft, breathless reply and the strong hand slipped from the youths waist, up his back to caress the back of his neck. The other hand slipping in between his legs, gently touching the youths throbbing member and flesh.. "Beautiful Shemyasha...Mya....My master." *

Tia says:

*Shivering, the boy wrapped his arms about the others neck, eyes closed and breath hot on the others neck. Those strong fingers were gentle on his tender parts, making them ache more and his words cause a soft sigh to leave his throat.*

PESTILENCE: You are my purpose, you are everything says:

*Iokastaz rubbed and stroked Mya s erection gently, carefully with that tender flesh in his hand. He rubbed the tip of one finger against its head and continued to stimulate Mya with his tail, slipping it in between Mya s thighs to tease his fevered skin. Mya could feel Iokastaz arousal and see the look of almost tormented desire on the males face...but he had not touched himself, only watching Mya and pleasuring him. Iokastas growled out a soft moan. "You are...so sweet." he kissed one of Mya s pointy ears, almost playfully.*

Tia says:

*Mya mewled softly, little lips pressing close to the others neck, panting softly against the moist flesh. His little erection throbbed in the others hand, his female sex warm and hot and starting to leak excited juices. His little claws prickled the male's chest as he nuzzled against the other.*

PESTILENCE: Say anything about Deathly hallows and I will murder you... says:

*Iokastaz rubbed his hand over Mya s erection and then down further to rub his fingers against the female sex, rubbing one finger against the moist opening very gently and by now a tiny blush had shaped on his pale cheek and he leaned down, kissing Mya again, rubbing his fingers faster and more eager. At the feeling of Mya s claws scratching his skin, sending shivers of sexual delight through him, he groaned deep down in his throat ...it was a suffocated sound since he most certainly did not want to draw the others attention to what was happening out there under the tree....*

Tia says:

*Mya would have hissed and attacked the men if they had tried to remove him. They would not have come away without blood spilled. His breath was heavy, letting mewls whined into Iokastaz's ear as he trembled and pressed closer to the warm touch of the dark man. He was the only one Mya did not feel sickened by giving himself to. *

PESTILENCE: Say anything about Deathly hallows a sent 7/27/2007 1:16 PM:

*One wet and slick finger slipped in, very slowly, and not at all very far. Iokastaz stared with a lusty, dreamy look on Mya, and he was painfully hard. But controlled, so very controlled. He brushed his lips against Mya. "Do you want it to be like this...or do you want more?" he asked softly, breathless at the beauty right there in his lap. His beloved master, glowing in the semidarkness.*

Tia says:

*"M-more..." Mya near wept, his sex pulsing slightly around just the bare little bit of finger in his depths. He lustily ground his hips down, begging the other with his body. He did not know how to go about this, he would need help. *

PESTILENCE: Say anything about Deathly hallows and I will murder you... says:

*Iokastaz slowly slipped down, so that eventually he was laying under Mya instead of sitting up and, after pleasuring Mya some more he slowly withdraw the wet, sticky fingers and started undoing his pants. His eyes were downcast as he undid the simple buckle holding them together. He hissed as they came open, his erect member a quite impressive sight, pushing up against Mya. Calmly, almost shyly, he looked up at the youth where he laid, slipping his hands up the others thighs, caressing them. Making no move to force Mya to anything.*

Tia says:

*Mya trembled, feeling the thick, hot shaft bump his aching sex. He mewled softly, rubbing against it and shivering with delight as the warmth slid against his wet folds. Now to get it in... Shyly he spread himself, looking up at the other for help getting it in. He blushed cutely, ears flicking forward in excitement.*

PESTILENCE: Say anything about Deathly hallows and I will murder you... says:

*Iokaztas threw his head back and growled quietly, an almost tormented sound. He held on to Mya s thighs firmly, rocking his hips in slow movements, the head of his cock rubbing against the slender youth s sex. He guided Mya down and raised his hips up, slowly pressing the slick bluntness of the head against the virgin opening. Slowly pushing it in, almost not breathing as he did it, his hands caressing the young hermaphrodites sides gently, encouragingly. He was long and thick, the mat of curls of pubic hair, raven black*

Tia says:

*There was some tension and then the hymen broke, a soft pained mewl leaving Mya's throat, though he clung desperately to the other. He whimpered in delight, impaled as he slid slowly down the others cock till he was well seated. Mya kissed at Iokaztas' neck, breathing his name appraisingly.*

PESTILENCE: Say anything about Deathly hallows and I will murder you... says:

*Iokastaz let out a animal sound of a growl, his eyes fluttering shut and he seemed to smile when he heard Mya whisper his name. His hands wrapped around the slender body, hands burying in the lovely hair of the young feline. And then he started to move, slowly, thrusting up into the small, slender body in a even, patient and controlled movement.*

Tia says:

*The little one cried out softly, quieting himself in the flesh of the others neck so he did not alert anyone what it was they were doing. If he did, it may cause trouble and certainly violence. His sex trembled around the slowly thrusting member, pleasure seeping into his sensitive nerves.*

PESTILENCE: Say anything about Deathly hallows and I will murder you... says:

*Iokastaz hands traveled over Mya s body, settling eventually on his hips again to hold him as he moved, faster and harder. That delicious tightness squeezing him so hard....he could not remember when he had had sex lastly...Had he even had it after Shemyasha had saved his life? When he had left mortal life behind...and only had eyes for his saving angel...The slender and graceful....unattainable beauty...Beauty to blind out even the gods...His master. Now here with him, allowing him all of this...returning life to him in a way he had almost forgot it to be.

"Masssterrrrrr...." a soft hiss, claws digging into those shapely, soft hips as the strong back arched.*

Tia says:

*Mya shivered in delight at the others hiss of pleasure. He whimpered, clutching close to the other in want. He shuddered, his sex pulsing and clenching at the hot shaft sank deep into his body. He whimpered his lover's name, fingers twisting into the long dark hair.*

PESTILENCE: GOIN BACK TO THE WILD FRONTIERS says:

*Iokastaz thrust rhythmically into the welcoming, tight warmth abow, his eyes narrow slits of pleasure, it tail wrapping around Mya s own, tensing up with spasms of pleasure. His fingers dug into the tiny hermaphrodite s curved hips, clawing just slightly, without breaking skin. He growled silently in his throat, eyes closed as he aimed to give Mya pleasure and prolong his own. He knew womens bodies well, knew where the knot of nerves sat that would make them mewl in delight....he had once had a wife...but that was in another life, long ago. Before he became what he was now.*

Tia says:

*Mya gasped softly into his ear, straining against the other in blissful agony. He clawed up the others neck and back, leaving bite marks on his shoulder and the right side of his neck. Tiny whimpers as Iokastaz rubbed against the little bundle of nerves in his tight body.*

PESTILENCE: GOIN BACK TO THE WILD FRONTIERS says:

*Urged on by Mya s mewl and whimpers Iokastaz thrust in harder, slamming his cock against the spot that caused the young feline to squirm and make such delicious, if muffled, sounds. He leaned down and licked his masters neck and cheek adoringly. A most tender gesture. Purring and the muscles of his belly tensing and twitching. He was nearing his climax.*

Tia says:

*The little herm arched against him, mewling urgently as he neared his own completion. It felt so good, he could barely get his breath as he squirmed on Iokastaz's thick cock. He whimpered suddenly, going stiff as his female sex trembled and clenched in orgasm.*

PESTILENCE: GOIN BACK TO THE WILD FRONTIERS says:

*At those tight muscles clamping down around his sex Iokastaz bit down on his lip and threw his head back, rubbing the back of his head against the tree slowly as he groaned out, slammed into Mya one last time, spilling his seed deep within. He pulled the lithe body close almost desperately, strong body trembling and breathless. His eyes were closed, lips parted in bliss*

Tia says:

*The little one panted and shivered, holding the other tightly to him in return. He was groggy and sleepy now, tired from his first orgasm and first sexual encounter. *

PESTILENCE: GOIN BACK TO THE WILD FRONTIERS says:

*Iokastaz settled soon enough, purring and dealing out small, almost shy kisses on Myas warm, flustered face. He was silent, apparently recapturing his breath, the look on his face more alive than ever before. Filled with...wonder perhaps.*

Tia says:

*Mya gave him tiny kisses in return, peppering them on the other male's face. He sighed softly, half asleep already in the others arms. Mya felt so very tired...

"Sleepy..." He mumbled. *

PESTILENCE: GOIN BACK TO THE WILD FRONTIERS says:

*"Sleep, my sweet master..." Iokastaz murmured into one of those soft, feline ears. "I will take you back to your bed..." and he got up, lifting Mya as easily as if the youth had weighted little more than feathers. He carried him back to the tent made ready for him. And there was something strange then....No one saw them, as if they were enveloped in darkness. Resting against Iokastaz chest, Mya could hear the dark males heartbeat race.*

Tia says:

*The little herm snuggled close, eyes closed. He sighed, already half asleep as he was carried back to his own tent and was lain down gently in his little bed. He sighed, drifting off into dreamless sleep.*

PESTILENCE: GOIN BACK TO THE WILD FRONTIERS says:

*Iokastaz remained with him for a while, caressing his hair and cheek until the youth had drifted off to sleep. And then he slipped back out and walked down to the tree. He sat down, wrapping the blanket around himself and leaning against the tree. The rope laid around him on the ground like a dead snake.

Mya dreamt....Dreamt about a temple of jade...with winged beings painted in gold on the walls. Beautiful winged creatures. He knew them to be angels...He could hear the faint sound of songs in the distant. A beautiful choir. And then the dream melted together in nothingness, meaningless and confused dreams that made no sense.

And then he woke up to hear Damons enraged shriek*

Tia says:

*He sat up fast, eyes wide. He still smelled heavily of Iokastaz, a delightful scent that pleased him to no end as he got up with the sheets tangled about him. He stumbled out, eyes wide to see what was going on.*

PESTILENCE: GOIN BACK TO THE WILD FRONTIERS says:

*When he stepped outside he saw Damon, barely reaching Iokastaz to the collarbones standing in front of the dark male, his tail frizzled up in rage, hands like claws. Iokastaz simply stood there, blood running down his face from scratch marks.

"I could not tie myself back up...." the dark one murmured, calmly "....And I really needed to relieve my bladder..." Damon hissed. But the young blonde feline looked just as confused as he was angered. Why had this abomination not attacked them when he could? why had he returned? Damon was frightened and his two comrades did not seem to be any more confident. Wide-eyed and twitchy*

Tia says:

*"Leave him alone!" Mya yelled, walking over and pushing lightly at Damon to make him back off, his eyes dangerously narrowed. "He's not hurting anyone, leave him be! I'll take care of it!" He shooed them off, glaring till they were cowed and backed away.*

PESTILENCE: GOIN BACK TO THE WILD FRONTIERS says:

*Damon hissed, mostly with surprise, but then stepped back, ears tilted back. "..." he made a strange sound as if he bit back something vicious before it could be spoken into words and then he stalked off to the other two, joining them.

Iokastaz looked at him and there was a very faint smile on his lips. "...Master...I hope that you have slept well," he bowed his head a little. Mya could hear the quiet purr of pleasure on his voice.*

Tia says:

* Mya nodded, smiling faintly at him. "You did very good not fighting him. He hates you." He murmured gently. "I slept very well, thank you." He blushed faintly, tottering a little as he walked past the other to go and relieve his bladder. "Be good and stay there, I have to pee..."*

PESTILENCE: GOIN BACK TO THE WILD FRONTIERS says:

*No one raised a voice to protest or to stop him. The three feline males seemed confused and uncertain of what to do, without their leader at hand and with their prisoner suddenly fee....a prisoner who they hated...but had obviously saved their beloved comrade....and this child...who seemed to somehow have a mysterious control over him!*

Tia says:

* He found a good place and crouched, for he had to relieve his bladder like a girl, his member not connected to his bladder. He sighed in contentment when it was empty before walking back with a slight limp. The little burn to his walk made him blush in pleasure at what he had done with the dark one the night before.*

PESTILENCE: GOIN BACK TO THE WILD FRONTIERS says:

*The camp laid quiet that day. Watchful eyes glanced now and then at Iokastaz, but no one walked near him or tried to tie him up again. They seemed to have accepted that the tall, dark male was....as for now...Myas responsibility. And Iokastaz, like a protective and loyal, big dog, followed Mya around, unless told not to. *

Tia says:

*Mya was happy that no one tried to touch the big male. He was his now in his young mind and his responsibility. Mya would hurt anyone who tried to harm the dark one. He ate and drank, sharing it with the other, idly wondering where Kalitha had dragged her prey off too. XD*

PESTILENCE: GOIN BACK TO THE WILD FRONTIERS says:

*For two days they remained in that camp. Late evening, the second day, Kalitha and Elizka returned. Kalitha looking quite a lot steadier than last they had seen her, a sort of flustered pleasure on her face. She looked smug if anything, with just a little bit of embarrassment. She was wearing Elizkas tunic. Elizka limped behind her, her grey face exhausted, even if he also looked rather satisfied. A new scar had been added on his face, running over his lips. His shoulders and chest was lined with them. It looked as if Kalitha had tried to murder him, and yet they walked side by side with a definitive closeness as they entered the camp, being greeted by their comrades instantly. Relieved, smiling faces. Even Damon was seen smiling*

Tia says:

*Upon seeing them coming back, Mya smiled and waved at Kalitha, holding to the hem of Iokastaz's pants. He had kept the man close all day, letting him follow him like a faithful dog about the camp. He had been very good and had not started any trouble like Damon had earlier. *

PESTILENCE: GOIN BACK TO THE WILD FRONTIERS sent 7/31/2007 11:09 AM:

*Kalitha gave him a small, flustered smile but her eyes were watchful. Elizka walked up to Mya slowly, glancing warily at Iokastaz "...I am to understand that he saved both you and Kalitha...she told me what she saw..." he looked up at Iokastaz. Evaluating, as if he was not entirely sure of who or what the person in front of him was. "....Thank you..." he murmured silently. ".However, it does not change anything...You must still be put through justice..." Iokastaz nodded serenely. "I understand..."

Elizka watched him.

"....It feels rather ridiculous to tie you up again now...." he muttered. And then turned and left. Damon made a quiet protest but the look Kalitha gave him quieted him. Damon too looked confused....more confused than angry now.*

Tia says:

*Mya nodded. He did not think about them smelling Iokastaz all over him and that the smell was very much sexual. He looked happy though and he bounced over to Kalitha to make sure she was unharmed from the horrible thing that had happened to them. "He's being good, let me take care of him." He beamed up at her, his bright eyes wide.*

PESTILENCE: GOIN BACK TO THE WILD FRONTIERS says:

*Oh they could all smell the sex on him alright and it was confusing, arousing and causing them all to react. Kalitha however, seemed the most relaxed, if she scented it, she did not react at all. She smiled down at him. "....He seems intent on following you....I for one am not going to complain...." she frowned, concerned "....He seems different somehow..." she murmured. You really do trust him don't you?" she asked, her white ears tilting forward.*

Tia says:

*Mya nodded. There was something to him that made Mya trust him. He would not have given his body so freely if not. "Yes." He replied, glancing at where he had left the big male standing. "I trust him..." He beamed at her, a much happier little creature now. *

PESTILENCE: GOIN BACK TO THE WILD FRONTIERS says:

*They left camp early after Kalitha and Elizkas return. This time it was the exhausted Elizka that sat behind Kalitha on the horse. Mya and Iokastaz were given Elizkas strong and robust horse to ride on. Iokastaz took the reins and offered Mya to sit at the front so that he could have a better look on the landscape they passed. Iokastaz was silent, but there was a small smile on his face and when Mya talked to him, perhaps asking him questions about the kingdom they were about to enter, the dark male answered, with that quiet, wise voice, his questions to his best of abilities. The others seemed to grow more relaxed as well, sensing that their home was nearer and with it the end of their hard journey. They were traveling up a steep forest path, through a bright, airy forest, crossing the mountain to reach Femrilah*

Tia says:

*Mya enjoyed the ride, leaning back against Iokastaz's firm chest, eyes half closed and lazy. His tail slid against the others thigh slowly, twitching slightly. He looked up at the man's face, smiling sweetly. "What is this place like that we are going to?" He asked softly, tilting his head curiously as he gazed up at the larger male. "No one has had the chance to tell me..."*

PESTILENCE: GOIN BACK TO THE WILD FRONTIERS sent 7/31/2007 12:17 PM:

*" Femrilah is not a big kingdom..." Iokastaz murmured softly, nuzzling Mya s hair. "Our people prefer to live in simple ways, tiny villages surrounding the capital, Falmere...where the temple of Flame lies...guarded by the royal bloodline and their holy warriors...I have not been there in a very long time..." Damon gave him a dart of a glance at that. Sharp and nasty. But he said nothing.

"....Mya..." Iokastaz murmured. "....When we reach Falmere...I will have to answer for my deeds..." he sounded almost sad, but numb. There was no defiance or anger in him. "...These are your people...they will take care of you....you are back where you always belonged...you will be safe in Falmere." He kissed Myas ear, a brush of a kiss.*

Tia says:

*Mya pouted out his bottom lip and grabbed the others arm defensively. "We will see about that." Was his answer before he melted back against the other and relaxed, though there was still a bit of tension in his slim body. He would not let them harm Iokastaz. If anything, he would take up the punishment of the man himself. *

PESTILENCE: GOIN BACK TO THE WILD FRONTIERS says:

*They rode up the mountain and then, when the evening came, they reached a travelers resting spot. A place where someone had built a small cottage for wanderers to use, a small fireplace in the ground. They made camp there and lit a fire. Mya could see lights beyond the mountain. A beautifully glowing beacon in the distance. Femrilah laid at the bottom of a valley. A great valley that looked as if someone had dug it out like a bowl. Iokastaz had told him earlier that one legend of Femrilahs creation was that something had fallen from the sky, an angel, and blasted a hole in the mountains, creating what would later be this green, blossoming and rich valley. A jewel among the kingdoms...desired and fought over many times in the past as humans and other races had tried to invade. Always failing*

Tia says:

*Mya was happy when they stopped. His legs were starting to ache and get bow legged. He yawned, looking sleepily at the cottage. It would be a fine place to sleep. He slid down with some help from Iokastaz and stretched.*

PESTILENCE: GOIN BACK TO THE WILD FRONTIERS says:

*Once again Iokaztas followed him like a silent guard dog and when it was time to sleep, he actually, unless Mya protested against it, embraced the youth and pulled him on top of himself, wrapping his tail around him tenderly. Gazing up at the youth and just tenderly laying there, silently sharing his warmth and caressing the slight body comfortingly. The feline warriors all seemed exhausted. Elizka fell asleep by the fire where he was supposed to be on watch. The night was silent except for the call of a nightly bird now and then, and fireflies played in the greenery in the forest all around them. There was and air of peace here that they had not felt earlier on their journey. In her sleep Kalitha purred, caressing her belly. Her body knowing, even if she did not, that she would soon again be a mother.*

Tia says:

*Mya was comforted by the big body holding him close. His lids sunk low on his eyes, happily resting against the big dark male. He was warm and held him so gently against his big frame. Mya slept well with him, cuddled close and looking small and sweet curved against the other.*

PESTILENCE: </3 sent 8/1/2007 2:14 PM:

*They were allowed to sleep peacefully through the night. Only, early in the misty morning Mya awoke to feel a tickle of something. Wet. Iokastaz was sleeping still. His eyelashes and face, nuzzled against Mya s hair, wet from tears. The others were already up, making ready for the leave. Kalitha had noticed that Mya was awake and gave him a small, gentle smile as she passed.*

Tia says:

*Mya gently turned, touching the dark male's cheek gently with his little fingers. The man was crying in his sleep, hugging to Mya almost desperately for comfort. A tightness took hold of Mya's throat and he nuzzled up under Iokastaz's chin, mewling sweetly. "Wake up... we are going..." *

PESTILENCE: </3 sent 8/1/2007 2:22 PM:

*Iokastas blue and red eyes slipped open slowly and he blinked. A quiet groan escaping him as he sat up. He had a vacant look on his face but that soon changed as his eyes focused on Mya and he smiled that faint smile, raising his hand to caress Mya under the cheek, tilting his head up and just watching him. Watching him like a man that saw something bright and beautiful after a long and exhausting journey.*

Tia says:

*Mya smiled up at him, his ears flicked forward and his body relaxed and content. He did not fear the dark one at all, to him he was a strong, faithful companion. He would protect him and Mya would protect him in turn.*

PESTILENCE: </3 sent 8/1/2007 2:30 PM:

*Iokastaz tenderly Mya to get dressed and then, after they had all eaten a smaller meal, they were off again, but not before Elizka had confronted Iokastaz , and given him a hooded mantle to wear. "Your face is recognized by many...feared....we do not wish to stir up panic." the leader mercenary said sternly. The journey would take them down the mountain path and into the valley below, passing through small forest villages where children played carefree and fearless and most faces wore bright, happy expressions. The feline people, not starving nor suffering war or plagues....Smiles and waves greeted them as they passed. It was obvious that Elizka and his men were well known and liked.*

Tia says:

*Mya watched them all with interest, leaning back trustingly against the big male. They had made sure that no one could see his face, gently tugging the hood far enough down that no one could see his eyes or hair. Mya was enthralled by the smiles and pleasure on the faces of those they passed.*

PESTILENCE: </3 says:

* People were even smiling at Mya, eyes curious but kind. A small girl tugged her mothers robe, staring up at Mya in openmouthed wonder. "Pwety lady" she chirped. Her mother laughed and herded her with herself. Iokastaz face was tense and paler. His eyes flitted over the villagers they passed almost as if he was fearing something and his tail frizzled up. He remained calm however, one arm around Mya s slender waist. And then, before the darkness of night fell completely, they could see the golden and painted domes of the temple of Falmere...*
