Jade looked at him andsaidshraply, "Anything I canclean for you, master?" The last bit sounded harsh, coming from her. "Were... were you in on his plan too?"

 
He frowned, and then Sighed. "Well.... yha. Just recently. But that dosent mean I agree with it."

His face was dark. "And dont you call me master, your no slave girl... to me."

She fluttered out and darted through the trees, though staying in view of Nathaniel.

 
Nathaniel looked up, after her. "Tettra!" He called out, confused. He felt a little uneasy at the thought of her in that tree by herself, for some odd reason. His fangs tingled a little; a usual sign to him that something bad was going to happen eventually.

 
"Tettra?" Someone said, the voice echoing through the forest. "Is that what he calls you now, sister? Tettra? Why would you let someone do such a thing as rename you?"

Tettra let out a screech, fluffing her wings up. The voice continued.

"Why dont you come out and be human again? Has spending to much time with these mortals weakened you... tot he point where form changing is near impossible?"

 
He frowned, and then Sighed. "Well.... yha. Just recently. But that dosent mean I agree with it." His face was dark. "And dont you call me master, your no slave girl... to me."

She fluttered out and darted through the trees, though staying in view of Nathaniel.
Jade stared down at her lap, and then smiled slightly. "Well.... Jackson, I'm not mad at you. I'm actually fond of you."

 
He laughed a little, and smiled, stroking her hair. "Well... I like you too. Your brother too, but I dont think he likes me much."

Tettra suddenly flew into the clearing, where the moonlight glittered on her feathers. A shadow moved through the trees, silently, after her, right up to the edge of the light. "Dont play games with me, love." He whispered.

There was silence as Tettra turned to face the voice. And suddenly, the thing stepped out.. and it was Croy, though Nathaniel might not have seen him before. He moved slowly across the open space, his eyes trained on Tettra as if he could see her- even though he couldnt. something purple ran down from the corner of his lip, but he didnt seven seem to notice anymore. Tettra flew to him and he caught her gently, but it was obvious no happyness had really crossed that face for a long time. And he stroked her, silently.

 
Jade said, "He's just not used to meeting a lot of people at once. One or two is fine but... larger than that, he becomes more introverted." She blushed at the touch of his hand on her hair.

 
Nathaniel just watched, his eyes narrowing. He slowly approached the two, careful. The tingling in his fangs became worst as he came closer, to the point that it was painful.

 
He nodded at this, and then lowered his hand, pulling it to his side. "Sorry for Adam being a *ss."

Croy whispered something in a language that wouldnt be understood by Nathaniel, and then let her go. She fluttered for a second, but all ready it was obvious- she was turning back into her human forme. Croy seemed to pay no mind to Nathaniel, though, as this took place.

 
Jade said, "Oh.... well.... you can't help that he is how he is. It's okay. Besides... if I look on the bright side, chores give me something to do."

 
It was silent, and silent.

and silent.

But Croy suddenly lifted a hand, and touched her, rubbing his fingers along her gave to recognize every feature.

"Life has been good to you, little sister."

"As it has been harsh on you."

He suddenly jerked off to the side and spat up a wad of ichor, venom, that burned thorugh the grass with no mercy. Tettra let out a cry and stroked his face, and he did not respond to that. but he still spoke.

"Little sister.... I see nothing anymore, as you know. But I see you. I see you, and you are beautiful... as I had knew, and hoped you would be. As I felt you would be after all these years. Little sister, you are the most beautiful thing in the world."

He shrugged. "But, you know... only do them when you feel like it. Dont do it if you dont want to. Ill help sometimes, kay?"

 
Jade shook her head and said, "I could never ask you for more than you have already given me: someone to be friends with."

 
He blinked, and a smile crept over his face. "You and your brother, ill take good care of you. Kay?"

"Croy, whats wrong." She whispered.

He replied, "Little sister... you know of much of my history. And you know what we are. The forest deity. Of healing, of protection... of chaos. When the forest died, your brother died too, but we are alive."

She only blinked at him.

"I know you understand little, sister. But please understand this. We can not stay with mortals, weather long lived or short."

She sudenly let out a cry and covered her mouth. "But why?"

"Because they are imperfect. And they display those imperfections, and we take them into ourselves. but we are perfect, because we are immortal- so we only become sick. I have fallen quicker then you because I am a monster, one that the mortals fear- a villain- but you, too, will fall sick. Will die."

"But why! What do I do!" she looked distressed. And he replied,

"Run. Run away with me. We will go into a place untouched by humans, however rare a place like that may be in their destruction. Please. We can live together, and keep each other compony.... like you and Sunne... Back... when I wasnt there. We can be brother and sister. Please. We will live out the rest of the worlds life there with each other, for isnt that better then living it out alone?"

Jade threw her arms around him, hugging him close. "You're the best," she whispered, before kissing his cheek and going to mend some clothes for the men.
