"That is just what I was taught...You know...as a kid"
She looked at her....
"I like your hair by the way..."
"How would you know? Just because you dont remember them, doesnt mean they didnt exist."
she smirked, staring at the door with her back still to the girl, her long hair falling down the sides of her face so her countenance was unseen.

She looked at her....
"I like your hair by the way..."
S:"Why do you always ask me this?"
M:"Because you're the only girl I'm completely honest with..."
S:"Really?"
M:"Yeah."
S:"Wow."
M:"What?"
S:"Oh. Yeah. I just didn't expect you to say that...."
M:"Yeah."
S:"It was sweet."
M:"Sweet."
S:Too bad I'm in love with his brother...
Name: Kaanth
Gender: male
Race: Shadowling (being born of shadows and able to manipulate shadows to do next to anything, mostly occurring in humanoid form, the royal lineage has blond hair, as opposed to the natural black hair)
Age: 17
Hair Color: Blond
Eye color: Blue
Height: 5' 3 3/4"
BodyType: wiry, but strong
General Outfitting: A black tunic with a gray belt cover his torso. A pair of black pants made of an unnaturally silent substance and a pair of black padded shoes are worn below the belt. He usually wears black gloves with no fingers and has a kodachi worn so the hilt comes over his right shoulder and another kodachi worn so its hilt protrudes from behind his left side.
Weaponry: Kaanth wields two kodachi, one a cursed blade, the other a holy one. The cursed one is Raserei, the holy one is Vorspiel. While Raserei seems to suck light from the world when it is unsheathed, Vorspiel seems to shed light. The reason for Kaanth carrying both is that he would otherwise be corrupted by one, the two negate the mind warping effects of the other, allowing regularity of the senses.
History: Kaanth was born and raised like all shadowling princes, in a dark cave, where he had to kill or be killed just to earn food. After the age of 12, he was moved to the castle, where he had to steal his food, and at 16, he went through his right of passage and was allowed to go on assignments for various needs that weren't provided at home. Upon the age of 17, he was banished after picking the locks in the weapons vault and stealing Raserei and Vorspiel, he now wanders aimlessly, hoping to be found by a kind soul...

Kaanth sighed, he hadn't eaten in days, he needed food, he looked at the nearest building, a large castle. "Boy... this brings back memories..." he mumbled, listening closley to some clamor going on further inside, "Heh... maybe the guards are distracted and I can get some food..."
Kaanth reached his hands into a shadow and pulled them out, they had small spikes made of solidified shadows on the palms, he wiggled his almost ghost white fingers. Then, he leapt up and latched onto the wall, climbing with the speed he was most noted for...
Give me suffering, pain, anguish, sorrow, and death! For I shall make it my driving force, and from beyond the grave I shall paint the sky red...
"You should never believe what you're taught. Teachers are liars you know" she looked back at her "crafters of lies."
She looked back to the door and reached for the knob "Yours is acceptable, I suppose."
"I believe there's a little good and truth in everything."
She stroked her own hair and smiled...
"Thanks.
If you don't mind me asking, where'd you get that stone? The one on your sword?"
S:"Why do you always ask me this?"
M:"Because you're the only girl I'm completely honest with..."
S:"Really?"
M:"Yeah."
S:"Wow."
M:"What?"
S:"Oh. Yeah. I just didn't expect you to say that...."
M:"Yeah."
S:"It was sweet."
M:"Sweet."
S:Too bad I'm in love with his brother...
Kaanth reached the top and perched on the edge of a spire. He gazed down and sighed in disappointment, the guards were not distracted it seemed.
"Ugh... and I haven't eaten in days too... no money, no food, hardly enough water... why... why did I fall to the temptation of power?" He mumbled as his stomach made a very loud noise, the fatal flaw of the design of a shadowling's body, their stomach's make an extremely loud noise when empty.
Every guard looked up, "Oh... goody..."
Give me suffering, pain, anguish, sorrow, and death! For I shall make it my driving force, and from beyond the grave I shall paint the sky red...
[[Dargomethe: Welcome ^_^ ]]
Alyx opened the door and held back laughter
"A teacher."
With that she dissappeared into the hallway.
"Me too..." She said softly.
Suddenly she remembered Ryan.
"RYAN! Oh my...Your father is safe...Yay."
Ryan stood up out of bed and looked at her softly.
"I don't believe we finished" His deep voice flowed like a river through her ears as he leaned down to kiss her even more.
Kail went with it...
[Yup yup...welcome]
S:"Why do you always ask me this?"
M:"Because you're the only girl I'm completely honest with..."

M:"Yeah."
S:"Wow."

[[Hi]]
Kaanth quickly leapt from his perch and behind a post that was near a torch. He scrambled for the dancing shadows and dematerialized in front of the guards when his index finger touched the eerie dancing shape.
Kaanth rematerialized on the other side of the wall, outside the castle, there was a small brook feeding into the castle that he noticed, "Finally... I can fill my water again at least..." he muttered as he dipped his flasks into the brook, "If only... if only... there were easily caught fish... then I wouldn't be so hungry... would you shut up!" the last part was his growling stomach...
Give me suffering, pain, anguish, sorrow, and death! For I shall make it my driving force, and from beyond the grave I shall paint the sky red...
[[You dork, Kail.]]
Alyx slowly made her way down the hall, in no rush at all, turning and going up stairs, following that royal scent, stronger than the one in the room.
She stopped abruptly at the end of one hall, hearing guards talking about something outside..surely they couldnt have just now have sensed her presence. She had been there what seemed like ages ago..
where they honestly that slow?
But the bigger guards, with the longer swords, stood by themselves, in front of two great doors, their faces like stone.
Alyx stretched her hand, her sword appearing in it once again as she listened to their pounding hearts, rushing with blood, blood that was soon to be spilled.
She walked out from behind the corner and they all began to watch her, noticing for what she was they all brandished their weapons.
She turned her head and stared at them, blinking slowly.
As six of them headed for her right side, the sword overflowed with red power and with a swift strike, all of their heads fell to the floor right before their bodies did.
She looked down at her reflection in the pools of their blood, watching their eyes blink for the last time, their heads rolling around the once clean floor.
The remaining three stared at her in horror then took off running, one of them slipping in the liquid crimson and screaming as he tasted it on his lips.
"Idiot." she said coldly as she continued down the hall, towards the two stronger guards
"Who wants to go first?"
She had two minutes at most to kill them and kill the king. Those guards were going so mad all over the castle, that two minutes could very well be generous.
