Kailani drew her daggers and changed her sight. It was better to see the darkness, especially at the new revelation. They were being hunted, she knew that much. She wasn't going to die. Not yet at least. She entered behind Ianthe, covering her back. Then, once they enter, she moves towards a basket she had started to prepare. She handed it to Ianthe. "We have to find somewhere to stay for the night, that is the most dangerous time to be out."
Ianthe nods and walks over to a shelf to get some supplies. An eye-shaped rune on the back of her neck fades in, which she hopes will keep her from being attacked suddenly from behind. As the rune only warns her when people are about a metre or two away, it probably won't make much of a difference.
((Yoooo @Lai-Bean you online?))
Fiona jumped and grabbed her bow quickly, her heart was racing as she quickly drew an arrow, and aimed it at the girl "Who. Are. You? and no. I don't have a boyfriend."
"My name is Alice Johansson," Aisha said smoothly, lifting her hands up to show that she meant no harm. "I was just wondering whether we could be allies. You seem pretty competent with that bow, and hey," she shrugged. "You're pretty cute."
Fiona glanced at the girls hands and focused her attention back on her bow, "Sorry not interested, I like to work alone, also sorry I like guys." She continued pointing the bow right at the girl and started to calm her heart down, in case she needed to take a shot at killing this girl.
((OOC: Just another thing with Sosdovah, since he's a dracopyre, he also has horns on his head, setting him apart from other vampires
Also, this is his dragon form: http://static.wixstatic.com/media/1c4ff3_3a06df0d70e350da6db5b238e9d8ff31.jpg_srz_1903_2537_85_22_0.50_1.20_0.00_jpg_srz))
Sosdovah watched as the two females scrambled inside of a store. He gave a soft snort, hearing the scrap of metal as one of them drew a pair of daggers. He couldn't help but release a snickering hiss.
"How cute, one of them has metal toothpicks. Such a thorn in the side it will be."
His forked tongue flicked out, testing the air. That one scent, it was familiar, from much earlier. The male glanced out of the corner of his eye, seeing a figure in the background. Despite them appearing to keep their distance, Sosdovah had learned that scent to be that other vamp he had crossed paths with earlier. A deep growl came from him, glaring backwards. So long as the other didn't step out of line and between him and his prey, Sos would leave the other alone. Though should the other vampire indeed come between him and the humans, Sosdovah wasn't afraid at all to tear them apart.
He quickly turned his attention back to the building. Sosdovah walked forward, taking slow deliberate steps. The dracopyre knew that being inside, the humans were trapped, for the most part. There was more than likely somewhere they could slip out, but then again that wouldn't stop Sosdovah, but it would slow him down a bit. The dracopyre's smirk returned to his face.
"Oh little lambs, you've strayed to far from the flock, and there is no shepherd to save you here. For the wolf has come, and the wolf is hungry."
((Off-topic, but @Dragoncita , your writing is amazing!))
Ianthe sits the basket on the floor, then begins to fill it with items from the shelf. It's a slow-ish process, as she's carrying her staff and so has to do everything one-handed.
Fiona glanced at the girls hands and focused her attention back on her bow, "Sorry not interested, I like to work alone, also sorry I like guys." She continued pointing the bow right at the girl and started to calm her heart down, in case she needed to take a shot at killing this girl.
"Well, that's a shame," Aisha smirked. Inwardly, she was cursing herself out. I hate the ones on solo missions. I could just kill this girl, but that'd be no fun… "Are you sure? I'm great with a blowgun. … Or just a gun."
Fiona nodded "I'm sure, now if you'd like to live i'd suggest walking far away from here, because I will kill you if you don't." She drew back her bowstring a bit further and put on her no nonsense face.
Kailani followed behind Ianthe with a basket of her own. She was mostly looking for food. "We won't be here long, but water will be necessary. I assume there's a lake out of town. But we may be lucky and find a well a little closer." she suggested. "And we should check for bags and or satchels, something lightweight and concealable."
((OOC: Thank you ^^))
Sosdovah soon came to rest right in the doorway. The dracopyre leaned against the open door, his eyes glowing brightly in the dim light. His gaze landed upon the two girls as they went about trying to gather whatever it is humans needed. Sos didn't know, nor did he really care. All he knew, was that these were prey.
The dracopyre grinned, showing his sharp fangs, "Well well, hello little sheep."
He watched the females with their baskets, scrambling about. Though, now that he made his presence clear, it was time to watch and let the games begin. His skin seemingly rippled, showing scales, but then returning back to normal. His forked tongue flicked out again.
"Mind if the wolf comes in little sheep?"
It was clear, Sosdovah was enjoying the moment. His eyes swirled from red to yellow, then back again. The dracopyre rolled one of his shoulders a bit. They were starting to ache, having not stretched his wings for awhile now. He kept most of his draconic features hidden while keeping a mostly human appearance. Only 'dragon' thing about him at the moment were the horns on his head, forked tongue, and his reptilian eyes.
Kailani paused as she filled a basket, her black eyes traveling up towards the voice. Her eyes flickered. That is the thing.. she a narrow of her eyes. He was impressive, no at all like the ordinary vampires she had seen in her time. She put her basket down and drew her daggers. "Do you want to come inside?" she quipped with a smile. You are far from what I expected….better, so much better She couldn't help be secretly admire the structure of the thing, vampire yet…. reptilian. She took a step back, towards the clear and open sitting room. Her eyes flicked over towards Ianthe.
Fiona nodded "I'm sure, now if you'd like to live i'd suggest walking far away from here, because I will kill you if you don't." She drew back her bowstring a bit further and put on her no nonsense face.
Aisha sighed. "Goodbye, then." She stalked off towards the town, clearly annoyed. Goddammit… I hope she dies a slow and painful death. (aisha's not strong enough to defeat someone in an outright fight)
(Yay! Fiona lives for another day XD!)
Fiona sighed in relief when the girl walked away, she slowly put her bow at her side and backed into the woods, away from the girl.

She took a step back, towards the clear and open sitting room. Her eyes flicked over towards Ianthe.
Ianthe dropped the basket and picked up her staff. She's not great in close combat, so she's glad that Kailani is here. On her own, she probably wouldn't really stand a chance.
Sosdovah smirked as he watched the two females pause in their gathering. He watched the one girl draw her daggers. In response, the dracopyre curled his lips back, showing sharp fangs. How amusing, the girl drew her metallic toothpicks again. His eyes shifted to the other girl who had dropped her basket, picking up a stick…sorry, 'staff'. If anything, Sosdovah would find it absolutely fun if they were to fight back. Knowing him, he'd enjoy every moment of the fight. Hell, he might even be nice enough to let them try and beat him, give them a false sense of hope before he swept the tide into his favor.
"Oh-ho, the sheep speaks!"
It was clear that his tone was mocking. Sosdovah's eyes glowed brightly, his form seeming to radiate with extreme heat, but the coldness was still there. He removed himself from the doorway he had been leaning upon. The dracopyre took a few steps into the building, approaching slowly. Though he did come to pause some feet away from the two girls.
"Do I want to come inside? Well of course I do little sheep. So, how shall we do this?"
He gave the girls his grin. The male's forked tongue flicked out, running across his lips. His body seemingly trembled again, as it seemed to do when the dracopyre was excited.
The rune tattoos on Ianthe's arms fade into view, then glow slightly. She glares at the dracopyre, and as she does her eyes change their colour. Her left eye turns completely black, and the iris of her right becomes copper-coloured with a slight glow. This is uncommon, but not unusual for Runecasters. It is a side-effect of activating powerful runes, the sort that if used incorrectly could cost the caster their life.
Yve stands tall behind the dragonpyre for a long second before using his cane to bump him aside to make way for himself.
“Pardon,” He snickers, “Snake.” He walks into said building further, shoving the dragonpyre, smiling at Ianthe and her dagger-clad friend whom he had encountered earlier and looked slyly at the Dragonpyre, happy to have ruined his haughty stance. He leans on his cane, tiling his head.
Fiona sighed and continued to walk away from the buildings, she had heard faint noises from there so she was trying to stay as far away as she could.

Ianthe stops glaring at Sosdovah for a moment to smile at Yve, but then goes back to glaring. It seems that she's trying to intimidate Sos in the hopes of avoiding a fight.
Instinctively, he released a snarl, eyes glowing dangerously. The heat seemed to flow off his body in waves as the other vamp suddenly stepped forward, shoving himself between him and the prey. Sosdovah curled his lips back, releasing a growl that seemed to cause the entire area to shake. His pupils were thin slits, nearly lost in the vast swirling of red and yellow of his eyes. More draconic features started to appear, his agitation clear and growing. Behind him a long tail seemed to lash back and forth.
"And just what do you think you are doing," Sosdovah curled his lips back, showing his fangs, "I had my eyes on these sheep first. I suggest getting the hell out of my way, or I'll be adding you to my meal plans."
Sosdovah's complete appearance had seemingly changed. The male had seemed to grow larger, taller. His horns grown considerably, eyes continuing to glow with malice. The skin along his arms had seemed to even change, appearing scalier, hands ending in wickedly curved claws. The tail that had sprung from his spine continued to lash back and forth.
"Besides, would actually benefit the rest of us, weed out the weak so the strong may survive. A cripple like you has no chance in our world. Surprised they haven't put you out of your misery. Just goes to show how soft the normal vampires have become."
Taking advantage of Sosdovah being distracted, Ianthe looks around for another exit. She starts to walk slowly away from the entrance he's blocking.
Kailani narrowed her as she watched the vampire grow. "Dear Croa'Tao…" she muttered as she took steps back. This would be a LOT harder than she thought. Her eyes flickered towards Ianthe, she took a few more steps back. There is another entrance on the other side… We cannot fight him in this building…
Yve sighs. “In my land I am a necessary person. Master of Trade. I don’t fight, I take orders.” He says, smiling. At that point his mechanical leg finally powers up again and he bends it with creaking and whirring. He stops leaning on his cane as such. “And please, make my legs don’t work but my powers are strong still.”
He moves forward, standing in Sos’s Personal space. He doesn’t seem scared, nor is he fearing death at all.
“So, back off, baby snake, I might be old but these two are going to be my kill.”
Due to his mechanical leg being irritatingly long, he still compares evenly to Sos’s Height.
Sosdovah's growl continued to grow even louder. His tail lashed back and forth. His fangs glistened, eyes swirling to bright red. The shadows seemed to converge towards the dracopyre's body. Though, the dracopyre's snarling face suddenly turned into a smirk.
"Oh I will look forward to this cripple. A pile of ashes will all be that's left of you when I'm finished."
His eyes glanced over, taking note as the two girls were scrambling backwards. Sos hissed softly, eyes continuing to glow. No matter, even if they did manage to get out, he had their scent imprinted in his mind. It wouldn't take too much to follow the trail once he finished with the cripple.
The dracopyre turned his attention back to male vamp before him. The fang-filled grin flashed, a few sparks flying from his slightly agape jaws. The shadows writhed around behind him, several tendrils suddenly forming. Sosdovah said not another word, instead instantly going on the attack. He suddenly pivoted, swinging his tail full force, aiming to knock the other right off his feet. Sosdovah knew once he had the other grounded, he would have full advantage.
That is less the other either was strong enough to block the attack or dodge it…
