* Guardians of the Twilight

[Demon_Lord_Kaguya]

"Fine with me. Let's just go, we have duties." She said and took a last glare at Gray as they left.

Meanwhile, in the shadows, the king's army awaited. "So that's where you're hideing." Said the leader. He nodded and the army went into a simple formation. "We'll catch them soon." Said the leader.  

[Sebastian Kierrn]

Sebastian was curious as to the sudden hostility to Gray that Rie was showing. He remained quiet, seeing as he had nothing else to say on that subject."Where do we head to?"  

[Demon_Lord_Kaguya]

She looked up at Sebastian. "How about the next town or so. I need some time to rest and i'm not at my best when i'm wounded this way." She replied and remained focus on ahead.  

[Sebastian Kierrn]

Sebastian nodded, then folded his wings to his back."I would offer to teleport us, but I am a bit drained from an earlier...problem that I ran into."He said, not willing to go into more detail yet."So this may be a bit slower than a pace would could set at best conditions."He said with a chuckle.  

[Demon_Lord_Kaguya]

Rie nodded. "It's ok. I had my own confrontation to deal with. As long as we go now, I don't care." She replied with a smile.  

[Sebastian Kierrn]

Sebastian stopped as his eyes started to glow. He shifted down to his wolven state, though he was alot larger than normal. He was large enough to be ridden, so he made the offer."Would you like a ride? If you can hold on, it will make our pace faster."  

[Demon_Lord_Kaguya]

"Sure, I can hold on." She said and waited for the signal to sit on him so they can go.  

[Sebastian Kierrn]

Sebastian sat down to make it easier for Rie to sit down."I'm ready when you are. Just mind my wings please."He said, and as if on command they vanished. 'Thats new' He thought as he waited.  

[Demon_Lord_Kaguya]

"Ok, but there's no wings here to worry about." She said and sat down on him. "Ready when you are."  

[Sebastian Kierrn]

Sebastian stood up slowly, as if testing Rie's weight. He took a hesitant step forward, upon realizing he could carry her would ease and that his wings were gone and not just invisible, he began to trot."I'll keep at this pace unless you want me to go faster."He said, moving through the forest with relative ease.  

[Demon_Lord_Kaguya]

"Ok, I appriciate you carying me on you're back and for helping me with this rebelion. I assure you that this won't go unpaid." She told Sebastian.  

[Sebastian Kierrn]

Sebastian shook his head, he didn't care for payment."Don't worry about it, I don't want your money or anything else you could offer. Truthfully, I help you because things are more interesting with you alive. And because one of your companions was someone that accepted me as I am."He said, speaking of the elf Selwyn.  

[Demon_Lord_Kaguya]

"Ok, but if we do get out of this alive, I would still like to repay you some how." She said, hoping that they would get out alive.

Unknowingly to the two, the Dark Lord's troop was hot on their tail. They were waiting until they were far away from Grey to attack them.  

[Sebastian Kierrn]

"The only thing I'll need after we are done with everything is a solitary house away from everyone else. If you insist on paying me, that is up to you."He said, he didn't shrug because he was carrying Rie."I'm going to run, my energy is returning a bit faster now."He said, giving Rie a warning before he started running. It was slower than he would if he was by himself, but even then it was still quite fast. He avoiding obstacles, sometimes giving tree's a wide berth so that low branches didn't hit Rie.  

[Demon_Lord_Kaguya]

She gave a small laugh. "I'll see to it that you get you're solitude then." She said and hung onto his back.
