Mores and Drakious ceased their combat and gazed upon the girl...  she was seen often about their great city but never have the twins spoken to her.  "Thank you, good maiden." Mores smiled in welcome, bowing his head before the girl.  Drakious rolled his eyes, and slid his sword into its sheath, turning on his heel to the large wooden building that made up the winter training area.  Mores scowled but rose his head, "please forgive my brother... he never had the best manners, faire girl." he said in the same friendly tone.  He rose, and inlodged his blade into the soft sand that made up the academy.  "Mine is crafted from the finest bronze and steel...  the handle is framed in golds... may Ares the great god see my blade as it clashes about the battlefield." he anwsered calmly.

Silininia cocked her head, "Time for our quest..." she stated calmly, sliding down the stairs of the tower and strolling after the man called Drakious, her beauty enhanced as the sunlight reflected off her locks of brown curls and her ivory skin... her green eyes narrowed as she gazed upon Akilina, which was no doubt Aphrodite, the great goddess of love and beauty's daughter.  She came into the indoor academy, seeing Drakious sliding off his shield, loosening his armor.  The torches enlighted the room dimly, "You will never earn the respect of Ares in the likes of that." she stated expressionlessly, the light breeze blowing her skirts gracefully behind her, the light flame flickering across her skin.  Drake looked up, seeing the quite lovely girl, "Excuse me?" he asked suspiciously, turing to face the stranger.  Silin rose and eyebrow, approaching Drakious...  she stroked his cheek gently and leaned in close, her left foot sneaking behind his heel, her eyes closed in alluring.  Drake smiled and was about to kiss the stranger... Silin's eyes flew open, with a quick motion she dragged her foot from behind Drakious, and he collapsed to the ground... she circled the man..."You are distracted to easily, relying on your eyes." she stated the sand digging into her bare feet.  Drake's eyes narrowed...could this be a nymph from the god's themselves?  He jumped to his feet, only to fall once again when the girl palmed his chest.  Silin narrowed her eyes... and pulled a dagger from her skirts...Drake swallowed, was she to kill him?  He pulled out his sword and lunged, the girl dodged with ease, managing to get behind him and hold the dagger to his neck, "3 times you have died already... you were ceated with 5 sences...use them." she growled, removing the blade from its attack position and retreating behind a column.  Drake ran to the column, jumping behind it.  SIlin managed to sneak behind the other side and kicked him hard from behind... "4 times, want to make it 5?" she hissed, getting annoyed.  Drake panted heavily but turned and swung the blade, Silin dodged with inhuman ability, meeting his sword with her feeble dagger, and knocking the sword from his hand so it landed several feet away in the sand.  "5 times." she stated dangerously.  Silininia raced behind teh next column without another word.  Drake grabbed his sword...5 sences...use them... he thought, and he closed his eyes, getting into an attack stance...  her scent... the sweet scent of vanilla...it was coming from the east... her bare feet scratching into the sand... approaching.  His eyes sprang open and he turned abruptly, swinging the blade, and as predicted the girl was there...she ducked and made another quick shot with her palm...this time he dodged...  "Very good." silin smiled, lunging again with her dagger and once again knocking the blade from the boy's hand.  Drake dodged her attacks and jumped back, pulling his shield from his back and shielding himself from her blows, she kicked under the shield and it flew from his hand, he picked up his sword with his foot, and swung, knocking her dagger from her hand... he gripped her shoulder and swung her against the wall, himself landing several inches in front, the sword at her throat. 

Silinina smiled, "Very good..." she breathed.  She wasnt trying hard, but it was enough of any mortal man. 

"Now now, lets not kill my sister." YUkita laughed emerging from the shadows swiftly coming up behind the boy, knocking the blade away. "Your technique needs improvement, and your reflexes are slow. But with years of hard core training, you might beable to improve." Yukita's laugh filled the air around them, light and sweet. "What do you think my dear sister?" SHe asked, looking over at Silininia.

Catellina stood nodded in acknoledgement. "Im sure He  will. Your skills should be admired by all the men of Troy." She smiled in fare well, as she turned and made her way home, not aware of the battle that had taken place after she had left. "I have returned father." She said, running to catch up with him on his way down to his station. "what are we selling today?" She asked slowing down her pace to match her father's.

"Silence, Yukita... your improvement matches his own." she growled, picking up the boy's blade...  for a goddess...and daughter of war, yukita deffinatly needed improvement, if she were a mortal...well, she would be one of the best in the land.  Silinina took Drake's hand in her own and she placed the handle in his grip...

~~

Drake narrowed his eyes, "Its so lowly when back up is needed... either that or your sister follows you around like a lost hound." he sneered, glaring at Yukita...not appreciating his sword being knocked from his hand, it was utterly unneccessary. 

Silin was appauled by the boy's attitude... but it did remind her of herself... she let out a humorless chuckle and delivered a deathly glare..."And your brother fails to do the same?" she anwsered in an empty, and cold hearted tone.

Drake stopped, this was true...his brother was always there... "My dear, I wish not to offend you, but your sister's actions didnt teach a lesson, unlike your own...  her words mean nothing, considering she simply knocked the blade from my hand to try to own up to your strength." he stated expressionlessly, never has he spoken to women in such a tone, but then again, he has never seen one like the two.

Mores emerged into the cabin, His eyes met the twin girls'... "Drakious, what ever is going on?" he asked, an eyebrow raised suspiciously... worried his brother has angered the girls.  They were both lovely, and he would love to make on ehis wife... but he knew this could not be.

Silin smiled and nodded her head in acknowledgement..."Actually, I was just leaving." she stated expressionlessly, glaring at the one called Drakious she stalked past the newcomer... Drake ran after and grabbed her arm, "Thank you... I will remember your words...  perhaps you and your sister will accompany my brother, Mores and I, to our mannor, for a grand meal?  Perhaps you can ask the girl sitting outside if she would like to attend as well." he smiled invitingly.  "The warriors you have seen today will also attend, a warrior's banquet it will be." he finished.  "And a warrior you are... and dont worry, your secrets are sfe." for in troy, women who could fight were destroyed or sent away.  Silinina smiled wickedly, it was about time these men showed hospitality.  "It would by my honor..." she said expressionlessly, not flinching away.

Drake smiled, "Lovely." he stated, leaving the room, his brother, and the twins behind him.

Mores coughed, "Forgive my brother for his rudeness, my dears." he said, looking towards the ground.

Silininia looked back but said nothing.

Akila sighed and snuck up to her cousins. "I think he's cute. But he was being my clas.sification of a jerk."She said to them.  "Hello cousins."She smiled.

(~Braindead~)

((oh tri.. you never posted your bio to the vendetta rp D8))

Yukita listened to Akila and Silin talk, walking behind them slowly. "We all fall into a trap somtime. Its how you decide to handle the situation that matters. You have fallen in love against your mother's wishes. What will you do?" Yukita chimed in, still having the strong urge to fight. "Oh, I cant take it anymore. I have to pick up a weapon before I die." She said though she knew she couldnt really die.

Silin glanced at Yukita..."Whenever a goddess falls in love, their lover is destroyed...  however when a god falls in love, nothing arrises from it." she stated in an empty tone.  "If her mother dosnt approve, Drakious will be destroyed." she responded, her eyes narrowing..."What if father discovered either of us fell in love with a mortal man, let alone the ones we went to find information?" she pushed on, glancing back at Akila, "As I said, if the parents dont know... then we should be fine." she smiled,

"Your mother always said follow your heart, if you dont listen to it now, wont you be dishonoring your mother's wishes?" she said, a cunning smile spread across her face.

It pained Silin to tell her cousin of the news..."Perhaps... perhaps you can take the form of a human man, and show off your skills in the academy against the others... then when you believe you can trust drakious enough..perhaps you can reveal your true identity." she said, swirving around the rules...once again finding a loophole.  "Then... our fathers and mothers wont be able to say that we broke the rules...for a woman didnt fight."
