Ahri kept walking through the woods, feeling the pure and fresh air fill her lungs as she inhaled it slowly and let out a soft exhale. She was still tracking that familiar smell that passed by the trees and got carried by the wind, curious about this person's presence here. Suddenly, she saw him, her feet immediately stopped moving as she eyed the man who was sitting on the ground... Thomas.
What was he doing? And what did he want? Ahri was clueless and frankly lost, but there was not much she could figure out until she decided to speak to him. A feel of distrust crawled in her thoughts as she approached the man carefully.

So she had come to him after all, the young man quickly sprang to his feet at the sound of Ahri calling out to him and bowed his head in respect, unsure how she would react to his words he spoke carefully
"Before you say anything else... i just want to say i'm sorry for what happened... before. It was wrong for me to accuse you of charming and i hope you can forgive me."

Ahri leaned her body in and stared at him curiously in the eyes, shifting from the left one to the right, as if she was inspecting him carefully. His words seemed honest, innocent, and his voice was soft and pure... She pulled back and felt the wind blowing against her skin, lifting up her finger and placing it under her chin as she spoke.
"There's no need to apologize, I don't blame you for your reaction... But is this the reason why you came here?"

Forgiven? He was forgiven so easily, at that moment someone had reignited in his mind and his connection to his gift was resolved. He looked up to Ahri with a grin and his usual positive attitude.
"Making things right with you was number one on my list, but these woods act strangely with my gift. So i decided to try and experiment with it."

Ahri took her time and thought carefully, what gift was the young man talking about?
The wind's speed gradually decreased, her expression softened as a jovial smile crossed her luscious lips, pointing out Ahri's comfort and trust she felt towards the man who stood before her. She walked closer to him, her hands crossed and lying on her chest; the sound of her feet crashing down on the branches and leafs as they moved forward in a perfect tempo, generated a natural melody, mixed up with the gentle whistles of the birds and the subtle rush of the wind, that could please the ears of any person who'd hear it.
She took a quick halt and admired the guy, gazing in his eyes charmingly. Her lips cracked, releasing her heart-melting voice as she asked him with a subtle purr in her tone.
"What gift are you speaking of Thomas? I'm very curious~"

Thomas took a moment to analyze his surroundings and closed his eyes briefly, when he opened them again his eyes would be a bright silver. He had suddenly felt extremely relaxed and took a deep breath before trying to explain his power to Ahri.
"You see, i was born not from here. But on another world, and i was the child in 1000 to not be born a hybrid like the rest of my people. I was born a human, and to add to this i was blessed with the ability to "see" the auras of people that showed their true nature in a color. With it i can fly, heal my wounds and even create numerous tools and weapons. And summon my... old mentors sword"
He took a step closer to Ahri and gave her a quick smile before continuing.
"It's a curse at the same time though. most people from my home are able to assume greater forms of the animals they're born from. Since i was human and had aura i already knew i wouldn't be the same. In fact, if i'm seperated from my aura for a prolonged amount of time i turn into a stone creature until i'm reunited with it. A gift and a curse, a gift that no one among my people have. A curse it made me an outcast, but i've learned to live with it clearly. It takes hold of me and helps me get where i need to go if i'm lost, gives me a clear view of the world as a whole and even let's me speak to animals."
He looked at the fox with another smile, the soothing sounds of the forest and her voice giving him a positive feeling.

Ahri's smile slowly widened into a sly, satisfied smirk. She flicked her tails around glamorously as a soft giggle slipped out of her throat. Whatever he had, it interested her, and she thought it'd be a good idea to keep him around, because such great powers are rare to find from what she heard of him and she wouldn't allow herself to let this opportunity slip away.
She leaned in closer to his body, feeling the heat that was coming out from it as her hands crawled up his torso and hung around his shoulder, her soft voice rang in his ears as she spoke calmly, her eyes gazing at him seductively.
"Tell me Thomas... I've been thinking about something... Surely I forgive you for what you have done to me... But I think you owe me a little thing though if you want me to fully forgive you and put our past behind."

With Ahri's hands around him Thomas changed his smile to a look of curiosity, giving a slight blush as her hands were getting curious on his body. He decided to simply go with the fox's move and moved his hands to her waists and met her gaze with his own.
"I've been thinking on it. And i may have something to offer, i'm sure when you leave these beautiful woods you feel rather unsafe when traveling alone. I have experience with protecting people, what do you say i become your personal bodyguard? Besides, it would give us a chance to get to learn more about one another."

Excellent, everything was starting to turn as she expected it to be, and she intended on carrying on with her plan. Her eyes remained locked on his, her natural charm could be easily felt through her honey colored seductive eyes. Her soft hands started to massage his shoulder pleasantly while her melodic voice escaped again from her throat and flied towards Thomas' ears, appeasing his mind and body.
"A personal bodyguard? How nice of you. Perhaps we could be good partners after all and travel these lands together... Fine then, I'll accept your offer with open arms my dear."
Post by Thomas Greenfield on Feb 9, 2013 19:48:21 GMT -5
So it was decided, he would be Ahri's personal bodyguard and travel around this new world with her. Not that it bothered him, the chance to follow a beautiful woman around the world unknown to him was worth it. His hands still at her waist and their gazes meeting he was feeling attracted to her in this situation, he spoke to her in a voice of curiosity.
"I think we can make it work, it would give me the chance to get out and explore this world. But what now? Shall we stay in this embrace a bit longer, or does the journey begin now?"
Post by The Nine-Tailed Fox on Feb 10, 2013 21:44:08 GMT -5
"The Journey begins~"
Whispered Ahri in his ears with her charming voice before she released him and wrapped her tails elegantly around her body, giving him a couple of seductive blinks just to tease him a bit more. The plan was going as expected and she finally have things in her control now, but for how long? She hoped that it'll remain like this long enough to be able to get what she wanted...

(( Simple note to all those who wants to post : Unless you just want to come here without meeeting up with Ahri, all encounters with her will occur a week later since she went outside of the woods for now. <3 ))
Tilly's foot steps sunk lightly in the soft Ionian grass.. it had been years since she dared come back to this place, but she needed too, she needed to remember. Tilly looked around her, birds sung their songs, the tree's seemed to be at peace.. suddenly, flashes of flames caught her eyes.. followed by screaming, bodies littered the floor. Tilly quickly shut her eyes, the screaming then seemed to fade off into the distance of her memories. Tilly reopened her eyes to find she had a death grip on her Sword.
Tilly allowed herself to relax a little, shifting a little in her Armor. She looked at her sword for a moment, countless blood was spilled by it, and only more to come. For she was not finished. Tilly then hefted the massive blade onto her shoulder and continued to walk. The farther she walked, the more flashes of that faithful day sprang back to life before her eyes.
When Tilly had reached the clearing, she looked down at her old village that seemed to be repaired over the years.. people were happily moving about, going about their daily lives. One young girl caught her eyes.. she was about eighteen, and she was laughing and smiling with her family.. Tilly clenched her Sword. Tilly would make sure that girl lived a normal life, and never had to experience the unspeakable horrors of unnecessary war..
Tilly then turned on her heels and began to walk back into the forest. However, she stopped when she thought she was alone.. laying her Sword on the earth, the tired warrior sunk to her knees and began to sob. She allowed herself this, if only for her own ease. Tears spilled from her eyes, for her fallen comrades in war.. for the innocent.. for her family. Tears she had no time to spill on those days, all seemed to build up and roll down her cheeks. Tilly let herself lean up against a nearby tree, tears quickly staining the grass.
This was the only way Tilly knew of relieving some of her pain.. she could not talk with anyone about it, for those horrors are never to be mentioned again. Only in solitude, where her agony would spill out from her eyes, did she feel some of the pain chip off. It had been years since she had shed the same tears on that faithful day, but had no time to grieve.
So here she sat, the anguished warrior, shedding tears for her people that she had no time to shed before. The dead needed at least some solace from her..

Scrod was glad he decided to finally get off Bilgewater for a change to allow himself to enjoy the new scenery. The Ionian woods were something new for Scrod. Quite different from the way the sea was, where it could be calm one moment and squalling the next. It was almost a stark contrast with it's peaceful tranquility and bright, serene landscape. But different didn't mean he didn't enjoy it, one could travel all across Valoran and not see sights like the ones in Ionia.
While meandering through the woods, smoking on his pipe from time to time, he looked towards the sky. Seeing it about midday he decided it'd be a good time for a quick nap to relax.
"S'pose it won't hurt none ta' lie down n' rest my ol' brain a bit..." he told himself yawning as he found a comfortable spot under a tree near a clearing to sleep under.
Just as he was about to doze off he thought he heard something. He opened one eye lazily to look around but tried to just shrug it off to hopefully doze back off to sleep but couldn't quite find the spot he was in before to get comfortable again. Sighing in annoyance he sat himself up and took a swig of whiskey to get rid of the grogginess and payed closer attention around him. As he did, he noticed in the clearing near him a girl alone in the woods. Upon closer inspection he saw that she was crying, as he frowned mentally he made his way to her plainly to not startle her. Maybe he could cheer her up, he hated to see a woman cry.
"Don't be meanin' to pry but yer' lookin' mighty upset there Miss...sumthin' wrong?" he asked her sincerely.
