Personal thread: WHAT WILL HAPPEN?! WHY...MY CHARAS WILL COME AND GO AND MEET EACH OTHER AND MAYBE PRACTICE MAGIC OR FIGHT WHO KNOWS WHAT WILL HAPPEN?!?!

I may allow a few guests to drop by here and there, but for the most part..this one's all for me and my rambling of characters.

"Speech" Thoughts

Arkrael stood in one spot. Completely focused on what she was doing. She was in a fowl mood. No matter what she was doing, she just could not make it work. She had failed several attempts by now and she was starting to feel discouraged again. Heterochromia eyes narrowed as the hackles upon her neck began to rise with her annoyance. Why was she doubting herself? She had done it before so why was she allowing these failed attempts bother her? She would not be discouraged in her practice. She would get it right and she would do it successfully. Her top lip quivered up, baring the tips of her fangs as her tail was held high. She still didn't quite understand why she always held it so high, but it only ever felt right to do so. It was just part of her nature she guessed.

Clearing her thoughts Arkrael slowly closed her eyes and forced herself to relax. Releasing a slow breath to relax her body even more she began to concentrate. Willing her magic to do her bidding. Slowly, but surely her gem came to life. Vibrating with it's, safe and familiar, sensation that soon began to emit a gentle hum from it. A smile instantly curled over her features as she felt her magic course through her. It was working this time! Her ears perked up when she began hearing the ore that was slowly reacting to her. Eyes opened and she watched as ore slowly began to spill out of the rocks and floor alike. Skittering and jumping over the ground until it ultimately jumped up and met with her Gem. Almost instantly the ore spread out over her body. Encasing her head with it's Familiar helm while providing her chest and legs with armor. The last thing the ore reached was down along her spine, leaving little spines to gather up along it's ridge in a dangerous fashion.

Happy laughter escaped the she-wolf as she did a quick circle, trying to see every last bit of ore that gathered along her body to make such an amazing feature to her. The helm atop her head covered the top and circled around her ears easily before small parts jutted down between her eyes and on either side to cover even her cheeks. Yes! She could still do it! Her tail flagged behind her, showing her joy at her successful attempt at using her magic. And with one final breath the ore fell away from her. Dropping off in broken pieces until all the ore rested upon the stone she stood upon.

Quietly she watched as the ore absorbed itself back into the ground before she finally turned her gaze away, a firm smile attached to her muzzle. It was time for a break. Slowly she carried on in her pace, deciding a good spot to sit was a few paces way near the wall. She had almost gotten to her chosen location before a sudden glint caught her attention. Her ears perked up and she turned her head to get a better look. Blinking a few times she awed over the large gem that jutted out of the wall. Stone and rumble began to fall away from the gem and Arkrael's curiosity grew. She hurried over to it, sniffing at the Citrine gem that lay embedded into the wall and floor.

There was no way it wasn't what she assumed it was. She pressed her head against the gem, her smile growing even larger as she easily felt the vibrations of gem coursing with life. There was an unborn gembound in here. There was no other explanations to that particular wave of vibrations. Arkrael hummed softly as she lowered herself to sit on her haunches and lifted a paw to press against the side of the Citrine. Quietly she began to play the guessing game with herself, curious to know what would hatch from this Chrysalis. It would hatch soon, she just knew it. The vibrations within the gem were too strong for it not to be.

"Speech"

It was high time this little kitten headed home. She had spent enough time recuperating back in Cetus for long enough. Though her ribs still hurt with certain movements and to big of breaths, it wasn't nearly as bad. She was slowly progressing back to her old self. The one who wasn't in constant pain and fear of moving the wrong way. There was a bounce in her step, one that hadn't been there in the longest of times(which really was only a couple days). A smile curled across her muzzle as she thought of all her friends back home that she would see again. Just the thought of that caused Amaria to pick up her pace. Of course...Cancer would surely be there. She would have to apologize to him again that was for sure.

Her thoughts were quickly erased when she suddenly spotted a form not far from where she was walking. She instantly halted and sunk back towards a more shady part of the cave(if there even was one) and for just a moment she watched. The black and silver canine was looking at something, almost acting excited by it as it rested it's paw against the surface of a gem jutting from the wall. Oh! Amaria's head quickly jumped back up into attention as she grinned. Maybe it was a Chrysalis!

Instantly Amaria moved, jogging over towards the Canine that had quickly looked at her in surprise. It nearly made Amaria flinch, but when the she-wolf merely gave her a smile and looked back towards the gem she relaxed. With only a moment of hesitance Amaria brought herself right up next to the wolf and gazed upon the Citrine. "That's awfully pretty..." Amaria broke the silence with a smile. She wondered just what it could be. Or if there really was anything inside this gem? Maybe this wolf just liked looking at it. This would be a fine opportunity to try out something new!

It didn't take long before the warm sensation flooded her being. Almost instantly she felt the heartbeat, as if her own. First the wolf's heart beat, steady and strong, resounded deep within her...and then a second. Her stunning blue eyes lit up instantly and she turned an excited look to the she-wolf "There's someone in there! I can feel their heart beat!" She exclaimed excitedly, starting to wiggle around. Alas, a sharp shock of pain in her ribs quickly made her settle down with a small wince. Damn ribs. They were going to take forever to heal weren't they.

"Speech" Thoughts

The appearance of another gembound was not at all surprising to the she-wolf. To see what it was, however, was. She had yet to meet a feline. So her interest was definitely peaked. She offered a smile to the cat before turning her gaze back towards the Chrysalis she now sat in front of. She had since pulled her paw away from the Citrine with the decision that she would wait right here. She wanted to know just what would be hatching out of this thread. As the feline boldly walked up and sat herself down next to Arkrael the wolf cast a side glance towards her, taking the opportunity to look her over. "Yes...it is," Arkrael responded softly as she curled her tail around her side. She was sure who ever was within this Chyrsalis would be just as pretty.

When the feline next to her suddenly got all excited Arkrael turned her miss-matched eyes to Amaria and blinked in surprise. So this little cat could sense things too. Sure, not quite like how Arkrael could, but in her own way. Heart beats. That was surely an interesting way to sense someone else. A grin spread across her features as she turned her gaze back towards the stone. "That's good! I've been trying to figure out just what it could be. Or if it's a girl or a boy..." She trailed off as she pondered on it. Arkrael nearly jumped out of her fur when there was a sudden, loud crack that echoed withing the tunnel. Her eyes widened as she watched a crack form over the crystal, small tiny webs stretching out from the man large crack. It would definitely be very soon!

Indeed this particular Citrine Chrysalis was well past it's due time. Cracks began to splinter all over the thing, pieces of it slowly tumbling down along it's side. It took awhile, but the cracking of the Chrysalis had soon covered the entire citrine and almost quietly the shards fell away from each other, allowing a small golden white creature to go tumbling out and rolling right into the wolfess' front legs. Her world had grown to become full of light, sweeping away the darkness she had so comfortably been slumbering in. Large orange eyes stared up at the creature she now quietly sat in front of. No words escaped her being, but slowly a soft and warm smile spread over her features, brightening her eyes into a warm glow. This creature had strange, but beautiful miss-matched eyes. Eyes that shown with power that would soon grow withing the creature as she aged.

Her eyes did not linger long on the canine in front of her and soon danced curiously over to the other presence. A feline. HEr smile seemed to grow and a soft mewl escaped her as she curled her long tail around her legs. This one was smaller than the wolf, with eyes as pure as an ocean. Stunning blue eyes were wide and glittering as they gazed down upon her and Arete felt the excitement radiating off this cub. Was she happy to see Arete? She certainly seemed it. A deep purr began to resonate within her chest as she rose to her paws and prowled even closer to the wolf, pressing pass her legs until she curled up into a ball just against her belly and behind her legs. She didn't understand why, but she needed to close her eyes if only for a moment longer. So for the moment, she would take the warmth and protection this wolf would surely give her and allow her to slumber on just a little while longer.

"speech"

OoC: --

"Speech"

A happy grin slid across the feline's features, thankful that this canine was not aggressive. She hadn't met very many canines, save for Majesty of course, but she really hadn't interacted much with him outside of a hunt that she did with him and Makyna. She hummed thoughtfully as Arkrael spoke, musing over the idea of just what could be resting inside this beautiful Chrysalis. Many ideas popped into her head and she lifted her paw to thoughtfully touch against her chin. Just as she was about to offer some ideas a loud crack echoed within the tunnel and her blue eyes quickly turned to the chrysalis. "Oh!" A broad grin quickly tugged her lips back to expose teeth.

As the shards began to delicately fall away and a gold and white creature slowly tumbled out and bumped into the wolf's legs a soft 'awwe' escaped the clouded leopard as she moved little more to the side. "You're adorable!" She fawned over the new feline cub! Her coloration were strange and she was unsure if she had ever seen a cat look anything like that. Oh, she was definitely eager to learn just what kind of cub this was! When the golden cub looked at her with such a warm smile Amaria's heart melted even more and it was all she could do to not grab that cub and cuddle her close! Instead she watched as the cub so easily swayed up to her paws and padded right over to the wolf and nestled down behind her legs and against her belly

"Oh my gosh that is so cute!" Amaria purred as she wiggled in her spot. She turned a grin to Arkrael. "Haha, you're a mommy now!" Of course it was merely but a tease to the wolf and the laughter behind her miss-matched eyes made Amaria laugh as well. "I'm Amaria by the way. Leon is my big Bubbi and Makyna is my big sis. I don't know if you've met them yet, but if you have i'm their little sister," She hummed proudly as she now plopped back on her haunches and introduced herself.

"Speech" Thoughts

Arkrael smiled warmly as all the new little fuzzball did was smile up at her so warmly. Not a care in her little world as she looked between both herself and Amaria. Sure she would never hurt the new fuzzball, but she wasn't everyone. So when the little white and gold cub came padding even closer, nudging her way behind her front legs and comfortably curling up near her stomach ARkrael couldn't help but smile, even if she was a little shocked. Amaria's words rung in her ears and the wolfess looked to the feline with a risen brow and a 'i think not' look, but laughed all the same. She shifted to better accommodate the cub as it curled up and rather quickly fell back into a deep sleep.

"My calling is Arkrael," Again she turned a smile to the cub only to prick her auds forward when Ammy spoke even more. She could not recall the names. Maybe Leon. She could just vaguely remember meeting a little bear only briefly just before all the lights had returned to the caves. "I may know Leon, but as for Makyna I can't say that I have met your sister," Arkrael answered as she once more turned her gaze down to the fuzzball that now slumbered. She wasn't sure how to feel about this feline feeling the need to go back to sleep. Wasn't most gembounds whom freshly emerged full of energy? She guessed now. She shook her thoughts and smiled to Amaria again, "Well, I haven't honestly met a lot of people. Tamelyn is my best friend. We hatched together. Then there's Vazi..." Just thinking about that stag sent butterflies rushing through her belly and it was all she could do to push the feeling away and focus on having a small chat with this feline. "Ghanyarah," She positively beamed when she thought of that cranky little lizard.

"Speech"

Ghanyarah? Now that was an interesting name! She hadn't heard of Tamelyn, or Vazi, it seemed and Amaria sat there pondering over the three gembounds this canine knew. Funny how there were so many living within Origin, but not everyone knew of the other. A grin curled around her features before she turned her gaze to Arete who still slumbered under the canine's protective stance. "I wonder which gifts she has been bestowed," She hummed lightly. She knew about hers. About Makyna's arcayne. Leon's fire. And Cancer had the same gifts she did, and then some. How he managed to learn more than one type of magic was still lost on her young mind, but she knew it had to be possible some how.

She soon began to study the wolf once more. Curious to know what type of magic she possessed. "I don't have a very interesting magic. I can hear heart beats...and see in the dark. But it's not so dark anymore, so I don't hardly ever use that anymore..." But maybe...- She was always watching others learn new spells. So shouldn't she be able to? Her being able to feel others heart beat was new at some point. Cancer was able to do that to as far as she was aware. Would she be able to do something different?

A frown marred her features as she stared at the walls. Contemplating a little too hard just what she could learn to do. Amaria sighed as she dropped her gaze. However, there was a sudden sensation suddenly spiraling up from her tail. It sucked the breath right out of Amaria as it crept all the way up and quickly settled at her ribs. Excruciating pain suddenly wracked her body. Her flesh beginning to burn and inflame and a strangled cry escaped the feline as a paw moved up to grip at her ribs as she clenched her eyes shut. No. No no no. She didn't need that! The pain nearly knocked her from her paws, sending her mind in a whirling mess of agony as it seemed every inch of her skin was on fire. It made her draw in pained gasps of air, only causing her ribs to react accordingly. Slowly she eased herself down, intent on curling about herself to try and help ease the sudden pain. Oh how tired she was of feeling pain. She kept her eyes tightly shut, unwilling to allow the tears that burned behind her eyes to flow. She would fight the pained feeling until it was gone...

"Speech"

How tired she was to always be hurting. She guessed that's what she got for assuming nothing bad every happened in the caves. With a heavy breath and a shocking pain from her ribs, Amaria pushed herself up to her paws. Her ears were pinned back to her skull as she avoided the canine's concerned expression. "I am okay..." She murmured as she coiled her tail around her side. She needed to go rest. She was happy she got to see the birth of a new gembound. A beautiful one at that. Yet now she needed to go find her way home and rest.

Finally she turned her gaze up to Arkrael and smiled warmly at her. "We will meet again I am sure. For now, I must go and rest. I have had a long few days is all..." She didn't allow the wolf any words even when she could clearly see that the wolf-pup had something ready on the tip of her tongue. With a quick dip of her head, Amaria pulled herself up to her paws. She stood there for a brief moment, allowing her injuries to adjust to the shift of her muscles before she finally began her way again. Heading out of the tunnel and into Polaris where she would soon find her way back to Pisces at some point. Maybe she would find a place to settle down for awhile and take a quick rest before the rest of her travels back home.

The soft purring that had been emitting from the slumbering tiger cub continued on all the while the two spoke. It wasn't until the other feline was responding to pain did the purring halt instantly. Golden eyes fluttered open with concern as rounded ears perked towards the laying down clouded leopard. She didn't yet speak, but rather continued to rest beneath the canine as she watched the ongoings with out word. When the leopard slowly brought herself up back to her paws, Arete felt a little relieved. Though that quickly washed away when Amaria was quickly saying her sudden goodbyes.

Arete quickly unraveled from the comfortable and warm ball she had found herself in and squeezed out of between the wolf's front legs. She turned her glimmering orange eyes up towards the wolf. The two shared a knowingly glance and with one last warm smile Arete rubbed along the front of Arkrael's legs and then hurriedly bounced after the injured feline. She would return some day, to fully introduce herself to the wolf, but for now someone was in need. That someone being the other gembound who had been there the moment she emerged from her Chrysalis. She ran slowly through the tunnel, following after the distinct scent of the leopard.

OoC: -EXIT ARETE-

"Speech" Thoughts

Arkrael was silent as she studied the cat that had slowly sunk to the ground. A frown of concern was quickly displayed across her features, but before she could even say anything about it the feline had rose up to her paws and gave her farewells. She hadn't even given her the chance to make sure she was okay. Arkrael sighed, but soon looked down to her paws as the tiger began to move. Their eyes locked and she knew instantly that this little tigress felt the need to go after the leopard. She sure did seem to feel like she needed to help in some way. Arkrael smiled to the tigress and gave a lick to her head before the tigress was off bounding away after the Leopard.

Well. Now what was she to do? Why... Practice her skills of course. Arkrael rose to her paws again and moved her way towards the center of the room. She glanced around for a moment, making sure no one else would be around. Once she was for certain no one was Arkrael turned her gaze back to the front of her and closed her eyes to concentrate. Almost instantly the ground around her paws began to quake. Shaking softly around. She listened to the vibrations of the earth around her. Hummed along with the humming stones and hidden gems that lay in secret among the stone. It was not enough. It was not strong enough. She would try again. She opened her eyes, features set onto that of determination.
