Cask roared his frusterations as he pulled back the paw that had been injured. His blood splattered on the forest floor. Hissing as Ace took off again, he lunged at her, his maw open to reveal sharp, pointed teeth. When she leapt into the river, he glowered and sharply turned his head in another direction. Pretending he heard something, he took off.

But not before changing back to his human form from behind a dense clump of tall bushes. His sweater was unzipped, revealing ripped abs and a tattoo high on his chest. The sleeves were pushed up pas-sed his elbows, showing another set of tattoos that came up from his wrists. With his hood up, it was impossible to tell what colour his eyes were though his hair is a light crimson.

"Hello?" he called, feigning weariness. "Is some one there?"

Hearing somebody, his head turned in the direction of the voice and let out a fake sign of releif. "Thank the known and unknown gods, your alright. I saw that big... dragon demon give chase after you. Are you alright?" he asked, his tone full of sarcastic concern.

"Bedwyr," Cask lied, using his last name that nobody actually knew. "Why was that beast after you anyways?"

Cask narrowed his eyes, which was hidden by his light crimson hair. "Wait! Before you go, do you know the name of you as.sailant?" he asked, mocking curiousity.

Cask took small step back and when he spoke, he sounded insulted; "Me? Hiding something? Why would I do that?"

Scowling, Cask pushed back his hood to reveal his bright yellow eyes that were now swirling with crimson. His anger was mounting. "I'd violate you in more ways than one and watch you beg for death before the end," he replied in a very deadpan, emotionless tone that was very different than his previous words.

Cask snorted and crouched down just as a shiver rolld down his spine before he transformed into his demon form. A large crimson dragon-like creature. "We'll see about that, little girl," he growled through a deep, demonic tone.

Hearing her scream, Cask's head perked at the sound and he took off. When he got to the waterfall, he curled his talons around the edge of the cliff face. A low growl escaped his throat as he spotted the human girl's motionless body on one of the banks. Great. He half-turned away, but stopped when the sour scent of death did not reach his nose. Smiling evilly, Cask leapted down from the cliff and dived into the water before climbing up into the s*censored*. "I know your not dead, girl," he said, his voice still demonic.

Cask noticed that she had not waken yet. Smiling to himself, he slid up to her and wrapped his foretalons around her slimp body. Shadow-like wings materialized on his back before he jumped up into the air. Circling once, he flew back towards his palace.

[[ It would be a palace... right? ]]

((Yep))

Ace  awoke in a room that was locked all except for the window.She had claw marks all up her arms and hurt in places that shouldn't.She felt her stomache jerk and she noticed that she'd gained some weight...although unnaturally fast.
