Just above the trees
J was falling from the sky due to losing his focus from being surprised out of what he saw while he was flying through the clouds: A castle... floating in the sky with strange energy surrounding it, this had disturbed his focus and caused him to start falling rapidly. Luckily Ti-Dez had kicked in at the last second here above the tree's and briefly suspended him in the air followed with a stern message to his wielder. "A true Windseeker does not lose focus, even when surprised." though this was immediately followed up with him being dropped through the trees taking a few bruises on the way down before hitting the ground landing roughly on his back. Groaning in pain he opened his eyes to see he had landed a few feet away from a girl resting on a tree, barely managing to get to his feet he acknowledged her presence.
"Hello... sorry for disturbing you, I kinda fell out of the sky. Though I am pleased to make your acquaintance, my name is J."

While she rested peacefully beside the tree, something caught her attention; The sound of branches breaking down as if something or someone was falling through the trees. She held the hilt of her katana and opened up her eyes as she saw a guy falling from the sky and brutally landing on his back right next to her. She was somewhat startled but she didn't express her surprise as she simply stared at the guy with a blank stare while he was groaning in pain. She looked back at the sky as if she was waiting for another person to fall, though it was a sarcastic gesture on her behalf.
"I suppose you lost your wings, quite unusual to see a man falling out from the sky... Or were you spying on me...?" Her tone was filled with sarcasm as she looked at him again before she properly introduced herself. "My name's Laufeia... I guess it's an honor to meet an angel in training."

J was starting to regain his bearings, and while the girl was speaking to him although he was distracted for the moment as he took hold of Ti-Dez from his back and quickly unsheathed the weapon to make sure it hadn't been damaged during the fall. The wind blowing madly around him in a circle as he did so which prompted a sarcastic response from the Windseeker "Calm down it's your fault I had to take you out anyway. This wind you're throwing at me isn't help either you know."
The inspection done J sheathed the weapon with a sigh, the winds dying down as he did. Now that that was out of the way he decided to respond to Laufeia's wonderful sense of humor "Well Laufeia if you wish to think I'm an angel sent here to sweep you off your feet you're most certainly welcome to think that. But yes, I do suppose i lost my 'wings' up there..." Though now J was looking up at the sky, trying to find that floating castle again, but to no avail.

Laufeia remained silent as she watched the man glancing at his blade before listening to his response. She noticed that something was bothering the man as he looked up in the skies, looking around at the blue veil as if he was trying to find something up there. She tilted her head and asked. "Did you lose something?"

J brought attention back to Laufeia seeing as he couldn't find that floating castle again. He'd have to take another trip into the sky later and find it, he was dying to know how such a structure could maintain itself, maybe there were others of the wind inside?
"No, just... thought I lost something while I was falling through the trees."
Post by Laufeia Denkashi on Dec 16, 2013 18:42:46 GMT -5
"Well then, I guess my blade and I will go back to resting since you don't seem like a threat to us." She said as she closed her eyes and rested her hand on Denki's hilt, letting the icy air crawl in her as she took a deep breath.

J nodded and let Laufeia get back to resting so with that he walked a fair distance away and turned back just to make he was out of her sight before looking straight up into the sky, soaring back up into it with a massive wind shortly following making a decently loud sonic boom that could be heard throughout that portion of the forest, whether Laufeia's hearing was acute enough to pick it up was something he didn't take into equation but disregarded.
Now in the sky once again he began his search for the floating castle he had seen, or rather thought he'd seen previously.

As the wind faded away, Laufeia was finally able to clear her mind and heart. She was resting peacefully before a sudden boom made her jump up on her feet; Her heart was pounding against her chest as her breathing became intense. She looked around her, holding tightly onto Denki while her eyes scanned the area around her... Nothing in sight, nothing seemed suspicious to her but that noise still bothered and she thought that it would be better if she kept on moving instead of waiting here.
She grabbed her bag and started to walk in what seemed to be a natural path built up by the trees that shaped the limits on both sides. She grumbled, still wondering what was the cause of such noise before she looked up at the sky and noticed something she never thought she would see. " Is that... J?!"
She remained standing still, watching the man in awe as he remained up in the skies.

After a few minutes of searching the area for the castle J found no results and sighed, how could a giant floating castle have disappeared... unless he had imagined i- no, he definitely saw it and he would find it, though not today. Sighing to himself and sitting in the blowing wind for a moment he decided to go back to the ground once again, this time landing on his feet instead of falling through all the tree's.
Feet planted firmly he decides to rest against a tree near his takeoff point, holding Ti-Dez in his hands as he did and mumbling to it at the same time. "Sometimes Ti-Dez, I wish Johnathan was still around to help in times like this."

Laufeia stood behind a tree as she closely listened to J. Something seemed to be off about him... Why was he talking to himself? And who's Ti-Dez? She thoughts it'd be best to just walk away and make sure that he doesn't see her an- *CRACK* Oh Laufeia... You're such a clumsy person sometimes, but it's probably that branche's fault... It should've been out of your way.

J snapped back to reality, he had heard something... maybe some had found him? Possibly, he decided to stand and scan the immediate area for anyone with Ti-Dez still fiercely being held in his grip.
"Who's there?" He called out and proceeded to wait patiently for anyone to respond, if there was anyone there to respond anyway...

Laufeia would sense a new presence looming above her in the treetops. Shivers would shoot down her spine, it was as though she were being watched by a tiger. A hiss of heat, no twigs broke, there was no announcing of its presence as it flew past her face, but she would see a bear pelt flapping in the wind as it crashed downwards to the ground.
In front of Rainey, a large brown ball of fur would land without a sound. As he rose up to his full height, his muscles bulging, the beast man of Ionia stared the man down. He bore a scar from the top of his head straight down on his nose and down to his upper lip. Udyr crossed his arms and stared at Rainey with a scowl.
His nose twitched as he took deep inhales, continued to stare at Rainey, his eyes flicking and looking about at every bit of him. He eventually rumbled over and tilted his head slightly downwards. He was taller than Rainey by only half an inch, it was odd to him to see someone close to his height. The beast man leaned in to Rainey and would start smelling his face. The sound of his inhalations were similar to a tuba being played in short, random bursts.
"You smell of the wind," Udyr grunted.
The beast man would stand and stare at Rainey, watching him in complete silence, as though he were waiting for something to be said, or done.
The proof that the state is a creation of nature and prior to the individual is that the individual, when isolated, is not self-sufficing; and therefore he is like a part in relation to the whole. But he who is unable to live in society, or who has no need because he is sufficient for himself, must be either a beast or a god.

As a blur came to approach him J was truly surprised, even though he was in self-isolation in the mountains for a few years some time ago he still knew who stood before him. Udyr, one of the more common names spoken anytime the Noxus-Ionia rematch was mentioned, and now he was here in front of him. Too many questions and concerns were flowing through his mind to properly engage a conversation, so he decided to simply answer his question though a bit nervously this also meant if Laufeia were paying attention she would possibly know his origins, knowing that he felt his grip on Ti-Dez only tighten.
"I do. I am a windseeker, yearning to master myself as well as the element. Since you approached me, I can only assume we are in your territory?"
Of course he was slightly concerned he was just sniffed by a hulk of a man, but knowing it was Udyr he could ignore this. Especially if he turned out to be intruding on his part of the forest. Though he suddenly thought of Laufeia, what was she thinking of this situation?

The chills crossed her spine as she felt the unsettling presence of the beast man; until she saw him with her very own eyes. The big imposing figure of Udyr greatly intimidated her and she decided to remain still behind the tree that was hiding her. She took a deep breath and threw a glimpse at both men before she hid her face again behind the tree, listening carefully to the conversation while she was at it.

Udyr snorted and nodded in response. "You are."
He cast a casual glance towards Laufeia and growled, "It is a futile effort to hide from us. Come out in the open."
Looking back at Rainey, he stared the man in his eyes, evaluating him, gauging him.
"What is your purpose for being here?"
