Pleasure in Exile {Closed}

[LoganDarkHolme]

Dev made a gesture back towards where they had come from "Crazy? we're normal compared to them, go out and ask any one of them if Shape shifters, or gods, or vampires are real and they will laugh at you, so no, you dont sound crazy, and considering what i live with and what i am, " Dev shrugged non nonchalantly. "Trust me, the last thing i wanna become is a science experiment for any of them, i like the way my body is now, i dont need anyone poking around....." He Tilts his head to the side briefly as if thinking, they just shakes it off, a small stab of pain reminding him he was injured, and while he healed it, it wasnt perfect, he needed to shift and to eat,

He listened to her explination and he couldnt stop his lip from curling slightly at her "curse" comment

"well, keep your curses to yourself, as i said before, ive been cursed once already in my life, and im still trying to find a way to break it soooooo yeaaa....."

his stomach choose that moment to make itself known and he groaned

"you live here in town? or, staying? in..well, town...." Dev could swear he forgot how to speak english and rubbed his eyes "im not usually this much of an idiot, i swear, but, im hurt, i need to shift, and i need to hunt, so im gunna be a total Male here, and ask you Pretty lady if you wanna come back to my place so we can keep talking and we can try and figure out what in the hell is making us both twitchy, or we can forget we ever met and probably drive each other nuts with naked thoughts of each other....." Dev stopped talking, thought over what he said "ahhh, forget i mentioned that naked part, again, im just a male.....and being Feline in spirit doesnt help the situation...." Dev's voice again had that teasing, sarcastic lilt to it and a cool smirk on his features

 

[Asa]

She shook her head. I am not in the town but out to the west of town towards the river and the old caves and mines. Set up a private property because for the longest time I wanted nothing to do with the residents of my banishment. You could hunt there. Or we could travel to your dwelling Dev.

She smiled a little with a laugh at his comments...

SO I gather kitty likes what he sees?

She teased back with a smirk. She was of Bast so sensual and carnal pleasures were laced in her being even if she could ignore them for some reason he had caught her mind for some reason.

 

[LoganDarkHolme]

I am not in the town but out to the west of town towards the river and the old caves and mines. Set up a private property because for the longest time I wanted nothing to do with the residents of my banishment. You could hunt there. Or we could travel to your dwelling Dev.

Dev considered, he knew the area, and hunted there frequently himself, he cocked his head slightly as he thought back, while he stayed near the river, wildlife coming there to drink where easy targets, he wondered just where she lived, he never recalled seeing any residence in that area, blinking he was taken offguard as she asked him if he liked what he saw, and stuttered. "'ermmm,,, well, yes, of course, the design work on that tattoo is amazing, and i'd like to see it more then just in the low light of over head street lamps.."

he crooked his arm in a gentlemenly fashion as he turned on his head facing back towards where they'd entered the park

"i live out, slightly that way, more, North west, off Route FF, not fancy, but its functional, but would love to see where you keep yourself hidden, cats gotta snoop around ya know?" he winked teasingly "i left my Bike parked out by the bar, you have a car? i could follow you"

 

[Asa]

NO no car... I called what do they call them... a cab... I figured that would be a small start to dealing with humans socially so lead the way to this motorcycle of yours Dev

She slipped her hand in his arm having seen it on what passed for entertainment in this realm. TV and movies had been a rather interesting window into the mortal mind.

 

[LoganDarkHolme]

Dev looked to her as they walked, his brows furrowing once more, a tremble went through him when she touched him, felt like someone had laid a livewire to his skin but in that sick it feels really good way that confused the hell outta him.

"just........how long have you been here??? its things like that, that make me think not very long, everyone's gotta have a car, its almost a necessity to get anywhere now a days"

He quieted his voice some as they exited the park and headed back down the street, again, an Air of malevolence seemed to pall over him, people just moved away from him as he drew near, Dev muttered to himself but kept walking, until he came across his Bike and slung his leg over it, pulling the key from his jeans pocket he steadied the bike and looked to her

"just hop up on the seat behind me, your dainty enough to fit and wrap your arms around my waist to hold on"

 

[Asa]

I remember when this town was just starting out. I believe that would be about the late 1800's. I have always just kept to myself for the most part.

She raised a brow at the change in him till they got to his bike and then sat on the ba k like he had explained and slipped her arms around him.

 

[LoganDarkHolme]

he blinked, that sentence stopped him dead. sitting back briefly he looked over his shoulder at her

"18........hundreds????? holy shit........"

he shook his head, while he couldnt really be one to talk, while only really looking like he was in his late 20's, Devin Himself was nearly 90 years old, a gift of his Shifter powers and the healing energies of the earth magic he practiced. she was over 200 years old. damn.

"well, guess there is something to be said about being attracted to older women...."

Dev thumbed the starter and the bike growled to life with a throaty roar and deep rumbling purr

"since youve never been on a bike before, Lean with me in turns, it will feel awkward at first im sure, but just hold on to me and youll be fine"

Dev Geared down and the bike began to roll, looking over his shoulder to check traffic he merged out and weaved his way through the stop lights and intersections before reaching the west edge of town, Stopping at a red light he looked over his shoulder

"which way?, My place is North a few miles, where you at?"

 

[Asa]

Follow this road to the gravel road then straight through the trendline. You will see the old dirt path once you get through the treeline. If the bike tries to get hung up I can take care of it.

She slid her arms around him and thought about what he said about leaning into the turns with him. That sense was so strong this close to him the leopard tat on her simmered and sparked as she curled against him when the bike began to move.

 

[LoganDarkHolme]

He nodded and made the turn, a few miles up he saw the small gravel path and eased his bike onto it, the gravel wasn't loose, but it looked like it was an Old construction vehicle path for Power line maintenance, but he got to thinking he should have gotten his dirt bike, instead. He was, however relieved to see the Dirt path she spoke of was dry and hard packed, they hadnt had any rain for a few weeks so things had dried up enough for now that he wouldnt worry about getting stuck or damaging his bike.........unless you count the potholes.......Dev almost whimpered at the thought.....

Dev parked the bike and waited for Lilura to get off then got off the bike himself. His skin tingled, having had her so close to him was driving him to distraction and he flexed his hands and stretched

"well.....you weren't kidding" he grinned as he looked around "you really are out in the sticks, im sure the taxi drivers love you"

he turned and winked at her

 

[Asa]

I walked out to the road to meet the cab and he thought he saw a tow truck hauling a car away.

She laughed a little but smiled at the wink. She bit at her lower lip at the feeling of of being that close to a feline spirit once more after so very long.

SO care to come in or would you rather hunt and just stop by the house later?

 

[LoganDarkHolme]

Dev just shook his head at her explanation, hooking his fingers into his shirt he peeled it away, the blood stains sticking to his skin slightly he threw the shirt to the ground, looking down at the stab wound he grimaced, he'd stopped the bleeding but the wound was deep, and not entirely healed. Dev cursed softly the bastard that got the lucky shot in.


"naw, i need to shift, Shifting forms heals most non lethal wounds for me, in the city its harder to utilize my magic when theres not much of nature there to draw from. and hunting helps me to refocus myself most times."

he turned to look at her with a wicked grin "besides, i may be a pussy but i enjoy stalking prey "

smirking he turned back to face the forest before him leaving the Double entendre hanging between them. He took a deep breath in and knelt to one knee touching the forest floor and exhaled slowly, a calming breath. there was a subtle shift in the air, a Vibrant feel of life, of joy, of peace. Dev began a low mummer, a chant, a prayer. The air around his body began to shimmer as he drew that life energy slowly into his body. his muscles along his back rippled.

The forest was alive, Dev's eyes opened and they were an mixture of emerald green and yellow, Sitting back on his haunches Dev's hand pulled from the ground, and the energy spiked, Dev reached out, as if Beckoning something unseen and the air infront of him blurred, shimmered with a pale haze, an ethereal form seperated from the tress, barely visible it was large, ghost like in its beauty, the pale fur glistened. a Spirit leopard. Dev's hands spread out, his arms outstretched on either side of him, he let his head fall back to look to the sky, again there was a rippling of his muscles as the Ghost leopard let go a roar and leapt at him. Passing into his body Dev spazmed for just a moment then fell to kneel with both hands The instant he touched ground his breath exhaled, and then his very body seemed to melt away.

Skin became fur, hands to paws, the wound knit itself closed, the blood vanishing as if never there as fur passed over it. In seconds he stood there, rearing back and let go a roar that echoed amongst the trees before he settled down, shaking out his fur as the energy around them waned then returned to the earth and everything was again as it had been. Claws dug and kneaded into the ground, feeling it shift and stir.

Ears twitched, listening, swiveling around as the beasts senses settled down and he turned to stare at Lilura. His eyes coming into focus, Emerald gold eyes slitting, the last thing to change and Dev was in control of his body again. Cocking his head to the side his tail twitched, watching her

 

[Asa]

Her eyes seemed golden as she smiled watching him locked on his transformation as she spoke faintly...

Sekmet...

Seeming to come out of the trance she tilted her head just like him.

What? I thought you were going to hunt? I am sure there are rabbits or something around here to hunt.

Smiling she suspected he was thinking she would run and hide and while it was tempting she felt sure that eating would help him heal as well.

 

[LoganDarkHolme]

for long moments he sat there, fighting with his beast, in this form the draw was so much worse for him, he wanted nothing more then to nuzzle against her and roll around like a kitten at her feet, he growled low more at himself then anything, he'd watched her, heard her soft whisper of Sehkmet's name, but finally it was her words that snapped him out of the haze he was falling into

What? I thought you were going to hunt? I am sure there are rabbits or something around here to hunt.

he rose to all 4's and took a step towards her, but forced himself to stop, his body straining, fighting the beast he turned and ran into the woods

 

[Asa]

She moved to the treeline as well but her path ventured different from his there as she moved to a small alcove in the river well hidden from sight allowing only the full moon's light to caress the water surface as she slipped from her clothes and into the water sinking deep within the cool depths.

Sitting in the center on a rock that allowed the water to rest about shoulder level as her eyes closed and she began her own meditation and magics. Her voice a soft whisper as she sat there.

Sekmet... Bast... As you have always taught... the feline energy has found its way even in this foreign land to your lost daughter

 

[LoganDarkHolme]

this late into the night it didnt take long to find two deer that were grazing, and he quickly took one of them down, eating his fill his ears twitched as he heard the wildlife around him pawing around, scavangers, and what not. Deciding it probably wouldnt be a good thing to return to Lilura covered in blood he ambled himself down along the river bank. taking a few drinks before plunging into the water and rinsing himself off. He caught her scent on the air, his ears perked forward, Padding softly up the river along the banks his nose to the air, following the scent as it got stronger he found her. She was hidden away in an opening he didnt know about, and he hunted these woods weekly.

he watched her, submerged in the water, his head tilted slightly as he watched her, it almost seemed like a glow was about her, wether from the moon reflecting on the water or something else, he watched her, and again his beast gave a nudge, wanting control, wanting to stalk her, wanting to.............he shoved that thought away and pushed the beast away, even in the glow he knew she was naked and he growled just slightly, slitted eyes taking in the way her hair formed her face. She was beautiful, even more so in this lightning.

 

[Asa]

With a sigh she opened her eyes.

They do not answer like they did before I was sent to this realm. Yet I wonder if they brought you and your feline side into my path as some form of gift or solace.

Turning she looked to him with a sad smile.

If you could toss that shirt at least to me?

 

[LoganDarkHolme]

His ears Perked as she spoke softly, then jerked as she turned and looked right at him, he was surprised, he'd come apon her in total silence, his head cocked to one side at her question, emotions had scents to them, lies, happiness, his tail flicked, she was saddened and he wanted to go to her, sniffing around he found her shirt and nudged it up onto his nose and carried it to her sitting at the river's edge, tail twitching still

 

[Asa]

She moved from the submerged rock and waded in the water over to him taking her shirt with a soft caress to his muzzle as she turned her back and stop fully in the thigh deep water and put her shirt on before reaching for her skirt and climbing out to slip it on. Turning to face him with a smile.

Feel I better or do you requires more healing?

 

[LoganDarkHolme]

he watched her, as she waded from the water, his eyes taking in her beauty, her body, the gentle caress to his muzzle forced him to close his eyes, he purred and a shiver ran through his fur. Opening he his he saw her watch him

Feeling better or do you requires more healing?

he shook head briefly no, his tail twitching still he turned, looking out into the forest, ears perked, listening. Nothing out of the ordinary....well....as ordinary as it could be with him anyway. he let a deep sigh, his head hanging briefly he closed his eyes. His body began to shimmer, like steam rolling from his skin the fur, his animal form melted away, the energy of it trailing down his body back into the earth, leaving him kneeling there as he had been before his transformation. Shirtless, but wearing his pants and boots still. He Trembled slightly, as if cold, his skin still burning yet from the power, his breathing deepened before that too calmed and he opened his eyes.

Looking around he rose slowly to stand, brushing a hand through his hair

"gods, i love quiet nights like this" he glanced to her a smile on his lips,

"you have to be a goddess, your too beautiful to be human, " he winked at her

"so.......your place?"

 

[Asa]

Some people would say sorceress some would say witch where I am from technically immortal. Orphan there as well found in the desert as a young young child.

She sighed talking of home still brought sorrow to her. To be banished from home because of the actions of others.

 

[LoganDarkHolme]

the wave of sorrow that flew off her furrowed his brows, cocking his head to one side as he watched the emotions play across her face before she settled on disappointed

"come on darlin, not that i scent anyone else around us, but talks such as ours shouldn't be left in the open, but...................for what its worth..........im sorry for your loss, and the pain. i know what its like to be banished and betrayed........"

His voice trailed off but he schooled his features to show no emotion he inclined his head in the direction of her dwelling

 

[Asa]

She nodded a little and began walking towards her little home. It was in some ways decorated as a reminder of home and the various magics she has learned about over the years in this realm and the rest very simple function only sort of set up. She motioned for him to come on in as she walked in and over to the fireplace and began preparing a fire.

Make yourself comfortable...

 

[LoganDarkHolme]

his skin tingled as he approached the small cabin, there was a lot of magic in this area, but magic too, had a feel to it, sadness, emotion, he watched as she moved to the small hearth and began making a fire he took his time looking around, there was so many different emotions in the air, he sneezed and rubbed his nose trying to clear it

"it probably doesnt mean much coming from a stranger...........but.....im sorry for your heartbreak, and the issues that lead you down this path, the scents, the emotions that hang in the air.......you were hurt badly....."

he turned to look at her, an almost sorrowful look on his face, as he slipped onto her couch and sat down

 

[Asa]

Once the fire was going she turned to him.

I was banished from my home due to two factions of Gods going to war to possess or to protect my magic and myself. How better to punish them for the war they started then to banish what the fought over sealing it away forever.

She moved to curl up on the far end of the couch.

They are Gods they could always find another prize another source of magic to help their respective people. So why banish one from their home and world thinking it would punish Gods.

 

[LoganDarkHolme]

He cocked his head to one side, brows furrowed as he listened, while he'd been raised to respect peoples religions he never really thought much about it, he prayed to the earth and the spirits of life and healing, never gave much thought to peoples gods or beliefs, but to hear her speak as if they were real had piqued his interest.

"well, not to offend darlin, but at least to me it makes some sense, Why fight over something they cant obtain? makes fighting pointless after that. But on the other hand, it may just drive some to try and obtain that which they cannot have, kind of like how a Thief or Career burgler to think"

he looked to the fire, thinking

"you say i cant have it? ill prove you wrong and take it mentality...."

he stroked his chin and rubbed his nose some

"their Gods, or so you say, dont they have the ability to move to any plane of exsistance, travel between realms and worlds? ive studied Greek and Norse Mythos, what would stop them from coming here to find you?"
