Draken disappeared then reappeared next to Katherine. He coughed up blood as he dropped to his knees. "Leader of the Light Riders? Have you come to finish me off?" He asked knowing he got the first wounds from attacking new elf Light Rider recruits.

"Why...why would The Light Riders be after you?" she asked in curiosity keeping her eyes on Shadow. A few thoughts came to her mind but she just ignored them and took a few more paces to wards the forest considering to run as she was told earlier.
(Sorry don't know what els to say)

Draken looked up at Katherine. "I..." He looked at the ground and decided to just ignore the question.

"No" Shadow said with a grim smile, his clones disappearing behind him "it's nothing like that" Shadow disappeared and appeared behind Kathrine and stuck a knife to her throat. "You have one chance" Shadow said telepathically to Kathrine "expose your dragon form or a slit your throat, take your pic"

Being startled by this she tried to back away but stopped as soon as she bumped into Shadow. Blocking her mind almost as soon as she heard his voice she looked up angrily "I'm no dragon" she yelled sounding more mad than she attempted to. This remark made her angry 'is that the only thing he attacked us for' she asked herself in annoyance. "If I was a dragon I would be..." she thought for a moment trying imagine herself as a dragon "...I would be big and...I would have long teeth and wings....and and sharp claws". She had almost forgotten about the knife, and as she looked down she attempted to back away once again feeling a chill go down her back.
Thinking for a moment she wondered weather or not to tell him that she was a shape shifter, that maybe this would end, but quickly shook the idea away wondering how she could have thought about such a foolish idea. The only thing she hoped for now id that he would believe her, and as she thought about this her eyes widened. Putting her hand on his arm she tried to keep the knife as far as possible. "And why did you give me that mark?" the question slipped out and she pointed at the mark on her wrist.

Draken watched helplessly beside her. He reached for his sword, but hesitated. He did not want to make any sudden moves. 'If he's not here for me, then what is he here for?' He thought. Thinking for a moment, he plucked a feather from his wing. It transformed into a throwing knife in his hand. He did the same with another feather, and threw the first knife at a tree. The knife and the tree formed into a large black dragon. The dragon's blood-red eyes stared at Shadow and growled showing his filed fangs.

Shadow laughed at the dragon, it was pathetic, compared to his powers, this thing was no more than a sapling. He waved his hand and the dragon dissapeared. "Out of tricks are we?" Looking at his face "O well, You're out of TIME!!" Shadow and his clones all jumped him, but not before he finished his magic spell, making it so he couldn't use magic of any sort.

"Not quite..." He said grinning. Draken withdrew his sword and slashed through the clones then threw the knife he had made before at Shadow. In pain and feeling weak, he fell to his knees once again. "Now may be your last chance, so RUN." He told Katherine.

Falling to the ground Katherine quickly got to her feet and ran into the forest. The owls corps seemed to change color and became darker and darker until it turned black, at this it turned into a silvery substance and soon the clone disappeared completely.
Panting hard she glanced back wards every so often but soon came into a halt as the edge of a cliff came to view before her. Gasping slightly she looked up as Lunar seemed to be coming back from hunting, a rabbit tightly clutched in his claws. He circled around as if waiting for her to come but she looked in front of feeling uneasy. Glancing back once more she backed up a bit and ran to wards the cliff preparing to jump.

Shadow suddenly yelled and grabbed his head, his clones dissapeared. he continued to yell, grabbing his head, his eyes bulging. The yelling was intense, his vocal cords could easily be damaged. He fell to the ground, landing hard and with a thump. He soon began to dissolve, all the parts that dissolved flew into the air and looked like nothing but hundreds of small fruit flies.

Gasping at the sudden sound for a moment she had forgotten were she was and a moment later felt herself falling down the cliff. Quickly turning herself into an eagle she flew up and back to wards the other two wondering what had happened. Staring down through her sharp eyes, they wondered around trying to spot shadow, but he wasn't any were in sight, and instead many fruit flies buzzed around. Being puzzled at this her thoughts wondered over to wards Draken wondering weather he was alright or not. Deciding it was safe enough she began to descend but quickly stopped and started to circle, 'no it's probably a trap' she thought gaining more altitude. Gazing around every were she tried to find if shadow was really hiding some were els, but to her luck he didn't seem to.

"He was a lot weaker than the others," He said while sheathing his sword. He was forced to lie down through pain and exaustion and stared up at the sky, which was now grey from the incoming storm. His keen ears could barely hear thunder rumbling from miles away, and it was coming towards them. He caught a glimpse of the eagle circling above. 'And the birds were even waiting for the dumb man's corpse' he thought.

"It's not that i'm weak" Shadow's voice emanated from nowhere "It's just that i have an inner struggle with what i guess you can call a demon. My evil half i you will, he takes control sometimes, like now, but i won myself back, and hopefully it won't happen again" Shadow's voice stopped and was not heard again. (In this rp)

Her head turned this way and that as if trying to find the source of the voice, but after a while she gave up and flew back to wards the cliff. Landing softly on the ground she turned back into her human form and walked back to wards the place were Draken was eyes looking around as if expecting to see Shadow again. Walking up to Draken she sighed ad looked up with a frown, her eyes traveled down to wards the Draken "We better find some shelter" she mumbled turning her attention to wards the wrist. She half expected the mark to be gone but made a whine like noise at the site of it and tried to rub it off again.

"'Evil half'..." Draken said aloud before Katherine approched. He opened his mouth as if he was about to speak but hesitated. He did'nt know how she would react to the truth about how he got his wounds, and that Katherine could be put to death if caught helping an assassin such as he. He shook the thought out of his mind and stuggled to his feet. He grabbed her wrist to observe the mark. Draken looked at Katherine, down at the mark, then back at Katherine. Lightning flashed and thunder roared at the storm finally rolled in. The downpour immediatly soaked them both. Draken, still holding Katherine's hand, ran to the cliff pointing at a dark abandoned tavern below. "There's shelter down there," he said. There was another flash of lightning and the thunder boomed again. "Quickly!" He yelled as he held her in both arms now, spread his wings, and glided gracefully to the tavern's entrance.

She squinted as he grabbed her wrist but didn't open her mouth to say anything, instead he just held on as tightly as she could until they landed below the cliff. Quickly running into the abandoned building she took a seat on the floor were water didn't seem to come through and sighed. A minuet later Lunar flew inside, the rabbit no longer in his talons although he looked rather wet. Landing beside Katherine he gave a friendly hoot and started to preen his feathers. After a while he took up a spot on a broken chair, placing his head underneath his wing he fell asleep.
Katherine's eyes still stared at the mark as she tried to search her mind of ways of washing it off. Getting her other hand she soaked up some water from her clothes and tried to wash it off but obviously it did not work. Later she tried freezing it for a short period of time, but after her hand became numb she stopped this and started to think of something else. Sighing she leaned back and looked outside at the rain wondering how they would find their way to town. "When we get to town" she began "we will have to get you to the hospital" she said half in thought.

"No, we..you can't," He said after she had said that. "I..I mean, this rain doesn't look like it will let up anytime soon," he added quickly, though a bit nervously. He knew how the townspeople would react to his prescence. He sat next to Katherine and took another look at her wrist. "My father had one similar too it."

"huh?...of yea...I'm guessing that I have to find him, and ask him to take it off" she said simply feeling a chill run down her back. Crossing her arms she wished that she could just turn into some other animal to keep herself warm, but turning her attention to wards Draken she shook the thought away, "hmm...I haven't introduced myself, my name is Katherine" she said bowing her head slightly, "and that little guy is Lunar" she added pointing at the owl, who gave a sleeping hoot in reply.

"Draken," he replied hopeing that she hadn't already heard his name mentioned elsewhere. He put a hand on his broken rib. The pain hadn't subsided at all, so he layed down with a groan.

The name seemed familiar, she remembered hearing it in a town that she had stopped in. She thought about this for a while then the word 'assassin' came into mind. She didn't actually know what an assassin was or did, "whats an assassin?" she asked curiously glancing outside again. The rain hadn't stopped one bit and instead seemed to get heavier.
