Mel hid the gasp with her hands as the ice spikes shot up at her, missing her only my a few millimeters. The tree was damaged beyond repair, and the energy she took from it just made the whole structure crumble. 'Can't play Cat and mouse forever it seems.' She pouted at the thought that her game had to end so soon. Even though it wasn't much of one, neither of them had much energy to begin with. A small sigh escaped her lips as she forced the ice to melt, it was impossible to move with the spikes surrounding her. She just wanted some wiggle room, and maybe an escape route would appear. 'I suppose I should give up for now.' Mel stole a glance at the vampire her purple eyes narrowed slightly before she snorted at the creature. "My name is nothing of importance, but if you must know it's Mel Kikuno FloRent."

A strong silence followed.Dani let go of Mel's neck,but glared into her eyes to give a warning that said 'Don't you dare move.'Dani suddenly slumped to her knees on the ground,coughing up some blood.With a raspy voice,she talked to Mel.Her reddish pink eyes seemed to turn glazed over,and Dani struggled a bit to breathe.
"Hey shorty,you're an elani,right?Could ya help me?"

She kept her eyes on the girl's presence,ready to kill her at any moment if she tried to flee.'I don't want my presence to be known in the village,I'll be hunted out.And in this state,I don't think I can fend back like usual.'

She watched the girl curiously as she bent down to cover her coughing fit. It seemed the vampire had caught an illness, which they do not often do. Being an immortal creature had it's benefits in the health area, but occasionally when they go without blood for every long they can pick up human illnesses. Or...she could be wrong, probably malnutrition was the case of this. Mel quickly lowered herself to the vampire's side and stared at the blood that had squirted out of her mouth. "I gave you my name, do use it." She sent a glare at the creature before she agreed to help her. It wasn't everyday that she got to work on a vampire.

Dani sat down,not bothering to protest.The world seemed to spin,and Dani shook her head."Hey,I left Dak behind....crap,brat better not get lost." She held her head as more pain flowed through head.

"Mmmkay,Mel.My name's Dani Arestol,no middle name."She looked boredly at at the girl,who was glaring at her.'I bet she's thinking i'm some creature or so.'

"I know you think I'm some kind of beast.But I was human once."Danidug her nails into a spot on her neck,blood pouring from it."It was a memento from my teacher from 6 years ago.She put her hand down,and stared at Mel with a neutral expression.

Treating a vampire you must try different methods since they don't have beating hearts like most creatures on this planet. Which made the process more creative to find out what was wrong with the girl.
Mel's glare soften into a small smile before she placed the back of her palm against the vampire's forehead, and then around the girls neck healing the wounds the silly thing did to herself. "Well Dani, I'm educated enough to know where most vampires come from." She quickly finished healing her neck before she checked Dani's eyes before a small 'ah' escaped her lips. "That glare was for the height comment, not for being a beast." She shook her head before standing up to her feet. 'I'm more of one than you'll ever be.' Her eyes rolled back into her head as she just stood there, but her mouth continued to talk. "But you just have the normal symptoms of malnutrition and strangely the stomach flu. Probably from the last person you drank from. It doesn't happen often, just your luck to catch it." She forced her hands to pull her eyelids down to hide her eyes before the vampire noticed. Mel was going to get every free moment she could to replenish herself no matter how small the pause.

Dani swore she saw the girl move around her eyes.She shrugged,and stood up.She seemed to dissappear for a second,until she reappeared with a squirrel in her hands."It's the only thing nearby,so I might as well eat it." She bit her fangs down and swiftly killed it before the pain settled in.Dani ate the animal,flesh,bones,fur and all.She looked up at Mel,who seemed slightly uneasy at Dani's actions.

"I wonder when that kid'll get here..Ishbal,he's slow."Dani leaned against a tree,and seemed to be asleep.She was tired and still feeling weak,but mangaed to fall into a light sleep so she could sense what was going on.

Three men, clad in common farmer clothes, were walking cautiously through the forest. "Hey, Kadek, how far to the checkpoint?" The youngest of the three, a handsome male with short black hair moved up to the front to ask their leader. Kadek sighed and turned to the boy whilst continuing to walk. "Look Jeremy, this is a covert mission, we are supposed to be normal farmers. So shut the trap and keep walking." Kadek was a tall and burly character, and his rock-hard face had two scars forming a cross on the right side of his face.

Dak was strolling through the forest, arms behind his back, looking for Dani and the Elani. "Why, oh why, can't Dani keep still for just a few seconds!" He suddenly jumped for a tree, hauling himself up into the branches. He narrowed his eyes, as a huge tree came chrashing down in a clearing not far away. "If that's not her you can call me a Britain..." He quickly started running down the thick branch he was standing on, jumping for the next tree.

OOC: There, i posted again! Didn't find anything to write before now. We have to get out of this forest sooner or later, so i put in some Britain infiltrators/spies to get the story moving.

Dani was shooken awake.When a tree came crashing down and almost knocked you out of a tree,you do not stay asleep.Dani's hair stuck to a sharp piece of bark,and refused to come off.So naturally she cut off an inch,leaving the hair only down to her shoulders.She could smell Dak heading towards her and the fallen tree and figured she should investigate too.A whoop and a jump later,she was trotting towards the thick dust cloud surrounding the tree.

"I smell Emo boy!"


ooc: how are they going to meet up with the three men (named reminds me of three musketeers) XD

OOC: I was referring to the tree that was brought down with the ice-spikes but oh well...

"I smell Emo boy!" Dak snorted. "She just can't let it go, can she..." He muttered to himself as he flew from one tree to the other. The black clad boy grabbed a branch, did a saltomortale around before flunging himself into the air, spinning around a little and then landed like a cat in front of Dani. "Sorry i'm late, i was away cutting my wrists." He said with a voice oozing of irony.

Dani smirked and put a grin on her face.She fell to the floor laughing and accidentally hit a tree with her leg while rolling around.A large hunk of tree toppled down and narrowly missed squishing both of them.After a a few more seconds of acting like a complete hopeless imbecile,she stood up.

"Sorry,I haven't laughed this hard in a while....man,you have a pretty good sense of humor for a thief.All the ones I know are either food or pathetic pick pocketer-ACHOOO!" Dani sneezed at the end of the sentence,and flushed a light red,embarrassed.
"Anyway,I was thinking of going on another raid today. I think I heard something about some britains holding stationing camp somewhere in the woods on a trip to the bar.You wanna go?" She paused for a few minutes to wait for a reply.
