It was a typical Day at Cloud Ruler…Falcan seemed to be a little more easy at heart. Finely getting used to things and people, didn’t seem to mind him at all, he’d also become good friends with Martin and others. Almost hoped with was all one long dream, at least this part would be a good dream.
It was a normal peaceful day they seemed to be taking brake from running errands. After all they were all human, or so to speak.
Falcan was standing at the bottom of the steps just outside the large door, it was half open, he’d been taking the horses out to graze. And was returning them. There wasn’t a lot of grass around here due to all the snow but there were a few areas with some types of foliage that the animals liked.
Day continued to be normal, that was until Falcan was about to head up the stairs when suddenly there was a clunking sound by his head, he twisted to see a arrow stuck in the wood by the large door, he shifted around and put a hand back on his blade also ready to shout an alarm if so needed. But then he noticed a note tied to the arrow. He scanned the area once again before yanking the arrow free and taking the note off and unfolded it to read it. His eyes widened a moment before closeting tightly he crammed the note into his pocket and led the horses back up to there stalls after closing the door.
He headed up blank look in his eyes as he entered the main hall and took his capes from the hooks on the wall and also yanked off his shirt to slide his ‘normal’ shirt on and pulled the stings tight and also laced up his boots and strapped on his few pieces of armor before tossing the capes around his neck, pulling the red one up over his mouth and strapping the other one on. And headed back towards the door. Calmly though.

Alessandra was wondering around the streets of Bruma clothed in her families armor and her fur cloak. the armor which hugged her form was made of only fabric. the fabric was black with some padded on her arms and legs. no leather no mail no nothing. her hands were wrapped up in the fabric as well. her hood was pulled up and her hair in a braid falling down her left shoulder. her feet were in foot wrappings as well. with a slipper like covering on them. she had jewelry glittering on her fingers that glowed with a slight red tinge to it.
it was the middle of the day and she was out walking, it had been too long. she smirked lightly to herself. people where strange in the day time always bustling about and slightly rude actually. she huffed and shoved people out of her way as she made her way threw the streets as visited the shops and everything early in the day. she asked around were cloud ruler temple was, the beggars told her.
"head north mi'lady. follow the road once you leave through the north gate. fallow it straight the road will turn and go up a hill on the side of the mountain."
"thanks you beggar, her take these coins." she handed the beggar a small purse.
"blessings my lady, blessings."
"same to you beggar same to you..." she walked up the stairs and went out the North gate by the castle.
She started up the road....

Falcan managed to get off without any of the others seeing him, as for the rest of the blades the just told them he was going hunting. Some how then just believed him, hum, the Blades seemed a little more relaxed then they should have been, maybe it was just nagging at the back of his mind. He headed down the stairs and closed the door before taking a deep breath of the cold fresh mountain air and headed down the pathway.
He continued on, picking up his pace his heart pounded like a drum in his chest it almost hurt…..his vision on the left was the same a little blurry but his eyes scanned the area around him contently. He grunted gritting his teeth people watching him, was someone always watching him!? The Blades….Martin even…but that’s just what people do right? Judge one another? But why….now?! He gritted his teeth and whipped though the air cape fluttering eyes closed tightly, he felt like he was running away from a murder, like a small child in shock, all they could do was run until they passed out…
He opened his eyes trying to remain calm while things were going to grate too….almost had started a new life for himself…he had many people to thank for that….did none if matter now? Why was he even so upset? He kept asking this his head pounding with the beat of his steps, but suddenly eyes widened as he lost his footing and fell forward into the snow.
He groaned lifting himself upon his knees, but at least his mind was clear again…. He gripped the snow in his fingers though it melted or squished out of his fingers then he shook his shoulders and head shaking snow off. “In the end….dose it matter?” he muttered lightly then eyes narrowed looking up he heard foot steps on the road. He gritted his teeth and shot upright and darted towards the sound then jumped over a small hill and whipped out his blade shimmering in the light, ready to kill in one hit. “AHHHHH!”
But then his eyes widened. “Alessandra!?” He gasped he suddenly dodged to the side at the right time but to suddenly end up falling into the snow yet again, blade flung from his hand clattered and rolled down the road some.

Alessandra was making her way up the hill when some one jumped out in front of her. it was falcan he looked furious and amazing at the same time, he really would make a beautiful addition when and if he chose that path. she ducked a little as he dodged her a rolled out of the way his blade clattering further down the road. she hurried over to Falcan.
"are you alright? my' dear?" she said as she knelt next to him. placing her hand on his shoulder. she took her hood off, to get a better look. as always Alessandra had some form of jewelry on she had an amulet on that was made of carved t stone the stone had a sun carved into it. and she had on a pair of ruby droplet earrings.

Falcan groaned a little in pain and sat up just as she ran to him. His eyes widened a lightly he put a hand on his head. “I….I’m so sorry!” he half gasped and shouted and shook his head roughly. “are you alright!?” he frowned looking up at her. Slight blush coming to his face when she said ‘My dear’ he shoved that aside, mind now a little more scrambled then before. “wha-what are you doing here?’ he blinked and then slowly stood dusting off. “I…” he looked away and then walked over retrieving his blade and sheathing it and looked back towards her. “I…could have hurt you.” he frowned looking away again.

she nearly rolled her eyes at Falcan what a male. she snorted though "hurt me my dear? I could severely doubt you could have seriously wounded me." she placed a hand on her hip and leaned to the side.
"why am i up here?" she grinned her little grin. "why my dear it is too see you of course." her hand on her hip was next to her Falchion's hilt the hilt was studded with rubies and topaz. the sword looked old but well taken care of and fully functional. she walked back over to him "what is wrong Falcan to have you so wound up?" she said while twirling her long braid in her jeweled fingers.

Falcan looked to her and frowned, right now he didn’t really think much of her first words, he swallowed and looked down. Then back up at her. “to see me?” he blinked then smiled faintly. “thank you.” he said then paused. “hey you shouldn’t be up here it could be dangerous.” he frowned deeply.
His brows twitched at her question. “I need you to leave….or wait for me at the temple, I have something I need to take care of, I shouldn’t be long.” he forced a smile. He seemed to be failing at hiding whatever pain he was feeling as he walked toward her and took her hands and lifted them up in his near his chest and smiled warmly.

Alessandra just gave Falcan a look that said typical male did you not hear me? she thought with a sigh as she listened to him. go to the temple? like hell they'd let her in there without Falcan. she was about to fold her arms when falcan grabbed her hands and lifted them near his chest. her eyes almost glinted as she blushed for two reasons, one that was incredibly sweet and two she could feel the heat and almost feel his pulse she had a craving for his blood again but mentally shook herself out of it.
"my dear you should know i can take care of myself... those bandits were a fluke." she said with a great distaste for that encounter, she never told falcan was that she hunted them all down the next night and slaughtered them. including the one in the anvil jail. she ate there hearts while they were still beating watching them as they died. she smiled softly at Falcan, " i can help you i told you i would help you..."

Falcan blinked watching her it was comforting but also stuck like daggers.. “I…” he paused, then gritted his teeth light his shoulders arched. “this isn’t related to the Blades, or…Ma- you know how, or anyone…up there.” he glanced in the direction of Cloud Ruler. “ just me.” he sighed. “I know…you would.” he looked down and then looked up into her eyes so deeply…. He dropped one hand by his side then took a deep breath. “I have to settle something with someone, I’ll be back.” he smiled. “I’m not sure what they would do If I let you come.” he added.
Then smiled and put a hand on her side, and slid it around her back and suddenly pulled her close and put his other arm around her. It was funny…he wasn’t blushing, and even her being a vampire….she felt so warm. He just held her tightly [not to tight] for a few moments. Before letting his arms fall and he rapped his red cape over her shoulders. “wit for me.” he said before turning away. “you can show that to them in Cloud Ruler, any time and they’ll let you in.” he stated, not even looking back he started to walk away. Further…and further out of sight….
A few seconds later…something would crackle in the bush behind her.

Alessandra blushed, he hugged her... he barely ever touched her, she was thinking it was because she was a vampire that he never touched her before. but obviously not he really was just shy. kind of sweet actually, she took a step back.
"i doubt they would still let me in Falcan... as it was I'd rather go with you. most times when you need to settle something the other side lies. especially when they wish to see you dead." she hated being nervous and such emotions when it came to humans this one though she adored. her eyebrows furrowed and looked around something made a noise. "did you hear something?"

Falcan was to far away to hear her before he vanished out of sight and she was left alone. The bushes started to move some more, as someone seemed to appear from the shadows. “well hello there love.” the male spoke, not much could be seen for his face was covered and body hidden by cloche and hood. “ah don’t be alarmed…..” he chuckled pulling out some rope and other men ‘appeared’ around her. “we need to talk, you see master thinks your boyfriend is going to run for it, we need you to ensure that he don’t, missy.” they grunted and laughed.
“if you don’t struggle we’ll take you kindly.” they cackled slowly approaching her. [uhg sorry lame post DX btw the ppls are Gmable >.< and I will try and post better asap.]

Alessandra looked at the men..there were a lot of them. Alessandra growled at all the men. and cursed her luck ever since she met falcan....if she didn't think so highly of the d**ned man. either that or falcan just had some very very bad luck in his mortal life.
"you fools," she hissed.
"why why little missy has some 'teeth' on her." one of the men chuckled.
"i'll show you teeth!" she withdrew the falchion from its scabbard "meet Abagaianye Naga" the blade rung as it was pulled out clear and true. "you will meat your doom!" she ran forward and attacked. the first one fell easily. though she lost her element of surprise. because everyone drew there weapons. until someone hit her with a fatigue draining spell, she fell to the ground and hissed at the men over came her.
all that was left was her sword and Falchion's cape.

Falcan had hurried along…he knew where he had to go…the Note said it all, but he just hadn’t expected to have to go back there so soon…. He approached a clearing in the woods.. Seeing a small farm like house. He stood there on the hill a moment or two taking in the scenery. His hair and capes blowing slightly in the wind.
The house hadn’t changed much except the fact that it was empty and a small hole seemed to be in the roof form maybe a storm blew though, but nothing unfixable. Outside was the same too but the old wood fence seem to had fallen in some spots and where a garden used to be was over run with weeds. He frowned it brought back so many sad memories…but also happy ones, thus bringing a small smile to his face he walked towards his old house. Seriousness coming back to his features.
Meanwhile inside the farm house was where his friend was taken, tied up a cloth wrapped over her mouth. “well that went fairly well.” the seemingly men being followers of someone sitting in a chair over in the non lighted part of the house. “he is almost here.” he voice chuckled. “but please don’t be rude to our guest.” he smirked, one of the men quickly yanked the cloth away from her face so she could speak.

Alessandra glared furiously at the men surrounding her as the cloth as lifted from her face. her hair was disheveled and coming from her braid. she was tied up good, she couldn't very well. she all but bite the next person who came near her.
"oh well she is a wild one..."
"I'm more than you can handle child!" she hissed. she squirmed her arms around to try and find her dagger she had hidden in her belt.
"i almost think we should have kept her face covered or at least her mouth. " another said.
"she killed the Nord earlier..."
"you are very lucky one of you knows good magic..." Alessandra said her eyebrows furrowing as she couldn't find her dagger.
"looking for this puppet?" the one man said he waved her dagger as he patted her face, she bite him hard. causing him to drop the dagger and almost loose two fingers. she slide the dagger underneath her and waited. glaring anyone to come near her again. they all kept a good distance from her.

The man chuckled. “I’m sorry about your misfortune.” he smirked. “but if you sit still, after this is over I’ll let you go. I don’t know what your connection to that Low-live of a man is, but I don’t really care….if he sees you in harm he will fight to the death, can you disagree?” he razed a brow though remained unseen. The other men continued to laugh but when she bit the one man, the ‘boss’ didn’t even seem to flinch. “Well, quite messy.” he smirked then looked at the vampire. “you know where we are?” he asked calmly. “this is Falcan’s old Home…where he lived as a child, where not to long after his papa died, I became his best friend.” he waved a finger.
