Glancing sideways at Abadon's voice, Rene sighed inwardly, closing her eyes for a moment as she continued to flit. It wasn't really a problem that she couldn't see; Her other senses made up for her lack of sight. Opening her eyes, she kept them focused on the path in front of her. Honestly, what was with this guy?... He picks a fight, then decides he wants to be the best of friends. She snorted quietly at the thought, just as they left the streets behind, breaking the treeline of a large wood that seperated the castle and city. "A castle not too far from here." She replied shortly, grimacing, before glancing over towards the male Vampire, an eyebrow raised. "Just why are you following me?"
It wasn't like she was fussed. She didn't particularly care what Abadon chose to do, but having him "tag along" wasn't exactly sitting well with her. She hated having people follow... Not that she could help it. She enjoyed her solitary life, and much preferred it alone. Though, naturally, there were times she sought the company of her kind.
She sighed in defeat, continuing towards Xaphan's castle with no intention whatsoever of expanding on the number of beings already in her presence.

Abadon kept pace, flipping one or two times to avoid crashing head on into fallen trees before landing back itno his flit, "You can fight and you have an interesting personallity, anything rmoe someone needs to be liked by something like me?" Abadon always cl*censored*ed himself as 'something' he didn't view himself as 'someone' he lost his humanity in the first century of his life, he found surviving easier without it so he abandoned it along with his home. He continued to run, punching a hole in an old tree as he apsed it, he did this to a few on his journey, as a way of arking his travels, this way he knew his way about. "So is there anyone else in this castle? and if there is will I find it easy enough to either not get in a fight with them or just ignore them?"

Rene didn't so much as glance at Abadon as he answered her question; She simply kept her eyes on the route she was taking, supressing a slight chuckle at the males words as she flitted between the trees. Really now, it seemed like a pointless reason to follow someone, though she wasn't going to argue.
Currently, she just couldn't be bothered telling him to get lost, despite her preference to be alone and the fact her body was already pretty much repaired- Not taking into account the blood that still lingered on her clothes. Crap...
She was going to need to change... And there was no way she was gonna take what she needed from Xaphan's home, she'd lived too long without relying on him and she refused to go back to that now... She sighed quietly, figuring that she'd just have to break into a clothing store as soon as she got the chance... Glancing upwards, she saw through the sparse gaps between the trees that dusk was quickly approaching, the sky becoming a deep purple, shot through with streaks of red from the setting sun.
She eventually looked back to the path she was following, guessing the time had neared 8pm.
"Naturally." Rene replied, narrowing her eyes at Abadon, snorting at him. Talk about stupid... "Ignoring wouldn't be smart, idiot. One of them owns the damn place, and I don't think he'd willingly ignore a stranger butting into his territory."
With one swift movement, Rene jumped into the air, using one foot to push away from a nearby tree before coming to land on the old castle wall overlooking the courtyard. It looked a magnificent site, what with the light of dusk giving it a fairytale-like glow. The silver haired Old Blood took note of the scene for only a second, before sitting herself on the wall, legs crossed and elbows resting on her knees.
"Maybe you should go and introduce yourself~" She said sarcastically, closing her eyes.

Abadon chuckled slightly, sensing the sarcasm in the Old Blood's tone but still seeing the temptation, was always one for judging the competition, and meeting these ones may prove to be useful, as he may find mroe like Rene. He winced in pain, looking down at his forearm which had yet again began to drop blood as it had opened up, he frowned, he hated doing a heal so fast but he had to to stop it going ceptic, he worked up a mouth-full of spit and let it leak itno the wound, sealing it ocmpletely leaving a dark coloured scar, being careful as to not allow Rene to see what he was doing, he examined the jacket before turning to her. "You owe me a new jacket by the way." Abadon had realised that it would be wiser waiting for morning to come, as he knew the majority of people in the castle would be asleep or otherwise pre-occupied at this time. He jumped up on a leddge on the castle, burying himself as far ina s he could get into one of the corners, getting comfortable away from sight and allowing himself to doze off, familiarizing himself completely with the scent of Rene first just in case.

~{Just gonna do a straight time skip.}~
The first to awaken next morning, naturally, was Rene; Outside on the wall of the castle as the first rays of morning sun hit her face. Eyes still closed, she lifted a hand and held it over her face as she opened them, reading the time, before standing up and dusting herself off.
She glanced around, spotting Abadon despite his best efforts, her eyes narrowing. She knew he was there anyway, she easily placed the location of his scent, but still... She had honestly expected him to leave by now. Rubbing her temples, Rene looked back towards the courtyard before jumping off the wall; Strolling towards the huge castle doors as soon as she made contact with the earth.
On entering the hall, she spotted Xyen, sat on one of the old, gothic style chairs. Clearly, he'd just woken up, judging by the fact he was laid back, his face upturned and his eyes closed. As she approached, his sharp ears caught her presence, and his nose identified who she was, despite the odd smell he couldn't quite place...
"You took your time~" He smiled, opening his eyes and glancing at her. It took less than a second for him to realise what he was seeing. Bolting upright in his chair, he blinked. "What the hell happened to you?" His eyes were focused on the huge amount of blood that coated Rene's form.
"Don't worry about it, I'll live. I'm already healed."
Xyen sighed, then shook his head. It wasn't often Rene got into a fight, but even when she did, she usually got out of it unscathed. Focusing his eyes on her again, he leaned forward, crossing his arms on the small, round table in front of him; Despite knowing Rene, his ex pression was slightly concerned.
"An explanation?"
"You don't need one..." Sitting in another chair, Rene closed her eyes. "It really doesn't matter."

Abadon awoke as his keen ears heard Rene moving about, he remained staionary for a few moments while Rene jumped down for his eyes to adjust before following in suit, his jump being more of a fall, saving himself from the ground at the last minute. Abadon followed the scent of Rene, sniffing the air, walking through the castle door, hopping to a halt as he saw all the vampires and lycans that were already in there, he bowed slightly, sarcastically of course, he seemed to make a pantomine of the events that have happened so far, "Pleased to make the aquaintance of your friend." Sumnor stood, already beginning to care about the rest that were in the group, knowing that they could most likely fend for themselves, "Who are you and what do you want here?" "What? So I need a reason to walk into a castle nowadays?" "Yeah you do, especially when it belongs to a father and son of the Old Bloods." Xaphan slightly supressed a chortle, "Yeah, I'm really not bothered Mon Frere." "Maybe I should just throw you out by force then." Abadon snarled, he had noted the Old Blood in black clothing when he had walked through the doors, noting him of as a human, not being able to place his scent, but now he had stood he was looking forward to the oncoming fight, he leapt at Sumnor, a snarl building on his throat. Sumnor flitted two steps to the side, throwing a heavy punch to his right hand side, where of course it made contact on the jaw of the oncoming Abadon, "Don't stand up unless you either want to explain yourself, leave... or die" Dryac was stood with Niele, the two were still trying to come up with a way to tell Sumnore,they were thinking of letting him know after her had let off some steam on this unlucky vampire, "He's tellin' the truth dude, he won't think twice about decapitating you." Abadon stood, sliding his jaw back into joint and smiling, "Oh yeah? You really think that? Well i guess I'm gonna have to prove ya wrong about that." Abadon flitted, throwing a punch itno Sumnor, not knocking him down but dazing him for just less than a second, the two immediately went into flit fighting, dasheing about the great hall like a pair of headless chickens.

Rene's eyes snapped open at the sound of that all too familiar voice, her head turning towards the direction of the castle doors; She immediately spotted Abadon, currently bowing in a sarcastic manner to the others in the hall. With an agitated sigh, she placed a hand over her face, leaning an elbow on the table in front of her and closing her eyes again. My God. This guy was persistant...
Xyen blinked, looking between Rene and Abadon just as Reiyn appeared on the stairway, clearly having flitted from his room at the noise that was emanating from the hall. He walked the rest of the stairs, coming to stand a little way away from Rene and Xyen, his eyes following Sumnor's and the new Vampire's movements.
"What's going on?" He asked, glancing at the blood that still covered Rene, and linking the strange scent on her to the new Vampire in the room; He eventually looking back at the two flit-fighters, eyes narrowing.
"No clue." Xyen replied, scratching his head. "But it would seem our little Old Blood here got herself into a fight-"
"Do you mind?" Rene asked, glaring at Xyen through the fingers of her hand.
"-and now, said battle partner is testing his skills against Sumnor."
Reiyn snorted, his face annoyed. Like it wasn't bad enough they'd just woken him up, but this stranger had attacked one of them, and judging by the amount of blood on Rene, it was quite a serious attack. Turning away from the fight, Reiyn allowed himself to fall into a nearby chair, crossing his arms and closing his eyes as Xyen walked over to Xaphan.
"I don't mean to be pushy, but we should intervene. I'd hate to see your great hall reduced to a pile of rubble." He said with an amused smile, acting almost as though this was an everyday situation. "Besides, I'd like to meet the Vampire who kept up with Rene. You yourself should know how dangerous she is."
Over on the other side of the hall, Rene allowed her hand to fall, glancing at Sumnor and Abadon. This was proving to be more trouble than it was worth...

Xaphan nodded to Xyen, before flitting straight into the two vampries, barging just enough of a bap to grab the new vampire in a full Nelson and rag him away from his son, kicking him hard in teh shin just hard enough to make the leg go numb, Abadon crumpling to the floor. Sumnor snarled, his eyes glowing, he had been forced to let go of his anamosity whilst in the fight, therefore his eyes were glowing with the rage of a thousand Old Bloods, he flitted over to Abadon, accidentally knocking his father down, he grabbed Abadon by the collar of his shirt and raised a fist,r eady to send a hard punch into the throat of the vampire. Dryac wasn't particularly worried, he had seen Sumnor kill people in much more vicious ways, ways that would kill a human stone dead at just the sight of the barbaric act, this vampire seemed nothing special, apart from the fact that he had managed to hurt Rene which was a major deal aparrently, he looked over at Niele, "Quick, while he's not lookin'." He kissed her, aprolonged kiss which seemed to go too fast for the pair of them, Niele smilling when the kiss ended, "Those kisses are by far the best parts of my day."

Taking his Lycan form, Xyen moved carefully forward after Xahpan, grasping Sumnor under the arms before the Vampire could throw his punch. Using his full strength, he pulled Sumnor away from the stranger, muttering words in his ear in a bid to calm him.
Rene had turned back to the table, chin on a hand and her eyes closed. She was trying, without much success, to block out the noises of the others in the room. Already, she was beginning to feel the need to leave again... Not surprising, really...
As the crimson eyed Old Blood hissed in irritation under her breath, Reiyn strolled past the table where Rene was sat, walking to stand over by Xyen, who still held onto Sumnor; His eyes on Abadon. He, despite the fact he preferred to remain uninvolved, was getting just a little annoyed by the intrusion. He, Xyen and Rene never really stood for uninvited guests until Sumnor and Dryac...
"Who are you, and what do you want?" He asked, Xyen looking up at the new Vampire also as they waited for an answer.
While the others were busy interrogating Abadon, Rene slipped past them, making her way to the hall's large wooden doors; Glancing once over her shoulder. With a sigh, she turned away from the scene and took one step outside, flitting as soon as she hit the castle's stone steps. It didn't take her long to make her way back towards the town streets she'd left earlier.
After a minute or two of flitting, she stealthily slipped into a closed clothes store, grabbing the first things that caught her sight; A pair of black combats donned with a dark, silver belt, and a granite gray coloured t-shirt, patterned by dark silver, jagged lines. It looked very much like the image of a dead tree, the branches sharp and complicated, something so easily seen in a horror movie.
Flitting out of the door, she jumped onto the roof and glanced around. She wasn't going back to the castle, not yet... She hated crowds as they were, but a crowd mix of Vampires and Lycans was much worse. Flitting yet again, she decided to feed. Afterall, it had been over 24 hours since her last, though she could go much longer. Besides, the thrill of the hunt would distract her, and that was something she felt she really needed at the moment.

Sumnor allowed his friend's words to calm him, lowering his fist, his eyes turning back to their normal red colour, which was odd for even vampries such as these, but in this group there were at least two with red eyes. Sumnor patted Xyen on the wrist, "Thank you, but may I ask... Why on Earth did you stop me from breaking his neck bones? It isn't as if the world will be any worse off for his death, in fact it may be the other way around." He stretched, his back clicking in several places, specks of Abadon's blood on his black jacket which he wiped off, making his appearance immacualte once again. Dryac walked over, placing a hand on his shoulder, whispering into his ear, not wanting everyone to know the news he was about to break straight away, "Sumnor my friend, i don't know how to say this gently, so I won't, I'll just tell it as straight as possible, I and your daughter have... fallen for eachother." Sumnor frowned for a moment but eventuallysmiled, turning and hugging his friend, "It's brilliant news, I would have never wished for a better suiter for my daughter." Abadon spat a mouthful of blood that had been caused by one of the punches thrown by Sumnor, "I'm Abadon... and I haven't a clue what I'm doing here, so that aint gonna get explained any time soon."

Xyen chuckled, releasing his friends arms as he looked at Abadon, still being grappled by Xaphan. He remained in his wolf form as he spoke.
"The mere face he lived 2 minutes against you should answer your question Sumnor. You have to remember... Our species' are dying... Killing this being would be pointless."
The Lycan then looked back at Abadon, his eyes narrowing. "How can you not know why you are here?... No-one dragged you here, you must have a reason." The lycan inhaled sightly, catching the scent of Rene on this vampire. Well, it looked like this was indeed the one she'd faced off against. "And congratulations." He added, glancing over his shoulder at Dryac and Niele.
Reiyn snorted at the vampire, before alking away from the group and sitting by his lonesome yet again, his features agitated.

Sumnor snarled before turning abck to Dryac and patting him on both shoulders, "You have my total and utter consent to you having a relationship with my daughter." "That's good old friend, 'cause of course you know I'm stubborn and Niele can be, so we'd of made a go of it either way." "I know, and that's what makes it so I consent, you'll do anything in your power for her, and that is all i can ask, that you protect my daughter and earn the love I have no doubt that she feels for you." Dryac smiled, turning away from his friend and walking over to niele, putting an arm around her and holding her close, happy to at long alst be absolved of the feeligns of guilt that were building up inside him, "You see? now I know that made you feel better." "What? Have I signed myself away to another psychic? 'Cause I've had Sumnor trying to do psych analysis on me for millium, and he aint managed to yet." "No, I am not psychic, I can just see it on your features, in your eyes, across your brow, on your lips." She then kissed him, letting him know that she loved him and she wasn't going to leave. Abadon stood, dusting himself off, looking at the tears in his jacket which had now grown worse, some caused by Rene and some caused by Sumnor, "I just go from palce to place, have all my life, I settled here cos it seemed quiet, which at the time was all I needed, but seeing Rene fight, it inspired me to attempt to make friends... although what just happened with taht guy wasn't the best option."

Xyen laughed at Abadon, shaking his head slightly, then taking his human form. He nodded at Xaphan, letting the Old Blood know that he could probably relax. "Makes sense I suppose..." He said, chuckling. "But Rene was probably the worst of us to try and befriend. She's incredibly solitary."
Running a hand through his hair, the Lycan glanced around the hall, before focusing on Abadon. "You have some guts, getting on the violent side of Rene. Ah well... If your wanting to befriend, as you say you are, you'd need consent to stay here." Xyen gestured to Xaphan, indicating the Old Blood owned the place.
From behind where Reiyn sat, Eazeah bounded down the stairs, coming to a stop at the bottom. Blinking, she strolled over at sat by Reiyn. "What's going on?" She asked quietly, looking at the dark haired vampire.
"A new member, or so it would seem."

Xaphan tottered over and placed a hand on the shoulder of Abadon, "You're welcome to stay in my castle as long as you do not pick fights with my relatives or friends, and everyone here is happily considered as such by me, even Reiyn over there. He doesn't like to know it I don't think but I view him as a friend of mine." Xaphan nodded over at Reiyn with a slight chuckle. Abadon stretched, nodding at Xaphan, he could tell that this Old Blood radiated power and energy, that he has slain a good few enemies of high standing in the past, that he was one for wielding a blade with great ease, "Thank you Xaphan, I look forward to being able to earn th right of being cl*censored*ed as your friend." Sumnor, content at long alst, walked over to his father and the new member of their merry band of vampries and lycans, "If you can fight like that whenever you want to, then you're a welcome addition to our group, I may call on you somet iems to help me teach the odd vamprie to flit fight." Dryac and Niele smiled at the group, looking around, Dryac was happy to be with niele and vice versa, but niele had a question on her mind and she couldn't help herself, "So are we moving on today or what?"

Reiyn ignored everyone, even has his name was mentioned; Xyen laughing. Placing a hand on the back of his neck, the Lycan smiled around at them all, his eyes eventually coming to focus on Niele.
Blinking, he looked back over at Sumnor, then returned his gaze to the female. "You should ask your father, seeing as he was the one wanting to come visit his home town." Xyen chuckled. "Though myself, Reiyn and Rene will probably move on again eventually."
Reiyn opened an eye, then stood up. "I'll be back later." Without waiting, he walked past the others, outside the great, wooden doors, before flitting. Xyen mumbling something about him never changing. Reiyn was getting tired of them. Besides... He had what he needed, staying there any longer would have been pointless.
After a good half an hour, he stopped, coming to stand on an outcropping of rock, miles and miles away from Xaphans castle. In front of him stood a woman, stunning, and incredibly dark.
"It's about time. I'd almost thought you'd gotten lost or found out."
"Don't underestimate me."
She smiled. "You'd better hurry, the Lord is waiting for your report on Sumnor and friends." Name: Feala Zhane
Age: She's human, being kept alive by the Shadow Lord she summoned.
Appearance:
Ability:Necromancer, camn raise the dead to do her bidding. Sold her soul in order to revive the shadow lord. Her form has changed thanks to her dabbling in black magic.
