Valdus left the small boat that brought him to the docks of the Ghost Shipyard, how they made it with out the ship going under was a mystery but he was still alive and so was his carrier. He turned to Argies, his carrier and offered a hand in brotherhood. "Forsiktig Venn" He said wishing him a safe trip back to the homeland. "Forsiktig Venn" Said Argies letting go of Valdus's hand and pushing the boat off the dock. He watched as the boat sailed away. He turned around and refitted the few packages he had with him. Fidgeting around in one of his bags he pulled out a hunk of lettuce. Taking a large bite out of it and swallowing it he tossed it over into the water. "Gone bad." he said as he starts walking forward trying to find his way
He paces around for a few minutes before getting the smell of something he did not like. He started smelling around. "Demons" he said to himself. "The same scum who wish to use me?" he began panicking slightly moving his hand to the slender package on his side. He slowly walked away deciding now wasnt the best time to make himself known to the likes of full blooded demons, or angels if he could avoid them.

A woman whom appeared to be in her early twenties smirked, she appeared to be a normal woman except she was a bit more than exceptionally beautiful, and she certainly had her 'lovely lady lumps' as Fergie would aptly put it. The strange enchantress had burning blue green eyes and short cut black hair with bangs that barely fringed over her eyebrows. Her light rose hued lips drawn in a smile and she shook her head, "Child, use you? Not even in your dreams." she chuckled, her canine teeth abnormally sharp, one of the few hints of the fact that she was in fact a demoness. She was dressed in a red dress of sorts, though the skirt was split on both sides up to her waist- for modesty she wore tan pants, so it was nothing for anyone's heart to get racing over.
It seemed the stranger's only imperfection was the pulsating course of black dots that traveled under her right eye like some kind of cursed scar on her soft, porcelain skin. The woman seemed to glow with a contageous confidence and her smile was infectious, she offered a hand to Valdus, "My name's Akira, and I'd assume that you're Valdus?" her voice rang like a bell through the Ghost Shipyards. She seemed terribly out of place here, almost enough to make the situation a tad awkward... and she didn't seem too trust worthy, because well... evil came in all shapes and sizes and uhh... levels of attractiveness, and she was most certainly a demon. Then again, she hadn't done anything to put her under suspicion.

He stared the woman down. She was exceedingly beautiful, but it was not why he was there. "Its not as though i'd allow you to use me anyway," He said, " but if you don't understand then you are not one of the demons i am concerned about." He began to turn away but stopped, he realized something that he should have from the start. "How do you know my name!?" He stepped forward, moved his robe to the side and placed a hand the thin package on his side. "You're going to have to understand something about me, i offer a hand to only one person and that person just left on the boat five or so minutes ago. So if you get the cold shoulder when you raise that hand to me, it is indeed because i don't trust you." He made another pass at her and a feather fell out of his robes. He slid his foot over it.

Akira watched the feather go to the ground and either she dismissed it as unimportant or she had expected it, "Well I'm not going to deny it... you're very rude." Her hand fell to her side and she seemed not to care all too terribly much that she had not been given a handshake. "And about knowing your name- I was sent by Twilight Moon to meet you here." Akira seemed to hold a smirk on her face, apparently she was the holder of some piece of knowledge or nother concerning Valdus that even Valdus was unaware of. Some amusing tidbit that seemed to make the rudeness of the student all worthwhile.
Akira seemed to patiently await when Valdus would agree to be accompanied to Twilight Moon Academy because they would have to try to arrive at Twilight Moon Academy as soon as possible because being in the Ghost Shipyard for any length of time was not a good thing to make a habit out of. Akira slipped her hands into pockets that had not seemed to be there moments before, as if they had materialized into existence from nothing. Akira must've had some kind of magic strong and living inside of her, but as of now it seemed like it was mostly harmless. "So I'd appreciate it if you would please not get me confused with your rather run-of-the-mill 'let's cause havoc and hell for mankind' kinda demon... it's a bit irritating when such a judgment is left oozing from someone's pores like it is with you."

He ground the feather into the dirt to get rid of it. "Growing up with only one person will make you that way," He said arrogantly. "Especially when that one person was the one i called Master." He now in his life cared little about what anyone wanted to say. He didn't like the fact that his Master's last dying wish was for him to come to this school. "Twilight Moon Academy, how fitting." He said smirking. "If you are the Academy's representative then tell me the name of the man who sent me here, if you are who you say you are then you should be able to tell me that." He didn't like the smirk she held on her face, she wasn't telling him something.
Although Akina knew they had to go as fast as they could, Valdus was taught to question everything till he knew what he needed to know. "I had already dismissed the thought of you being one of the demons that i needed to avoid, i see no cause of threat other than what is unknown to me." So far he has noticed many things, this demoness had more power than she let show.

((P.S. Her name is Akira... not Akina... >.> <.< the R and N key aren't even near each other... lol))
Akira paused, her expression going to a comically curious one, her eyes widened slightly and her eyebrows raised as she pursed her lips as if she was about to kiss someone. Her narrows drew themselves down as she tried to sort through to find the name in her head somewhere... y'know... out of 2000 years worth of names... it's kinda hard to figure who was who... it was a V name... kinda like Valdus... and the name certainly wasn't Vana... nor was it Valdoren... or Viktor... or Valentine... or Valens. She closed her eyes and called out to the heavens, "Makashi! What's the guy's name again?" she asked, being what some would consider a bit too loud for a prayer.
A man suddenly made his presense made, it was an odd kind of appearance- not noticed even though he had his oddities, but you had a faint recollection of him being there the entire time, he hadn't just appeared or anything. He had a pair of soft brown eyes in contrast to Akira's fiery turquoise ones and his hair was a dark bloody red hue. Though neither of these things were his most prominent feature, it was the spiraling horns protruding from his skull like some kind of gazelle's. He looked like some kind of calm, gentle creature though noticeably more demonic thanks to the horns... and the fang-ish canine teeth... and were his eyes... slitted? He was dressed rather plainly in brown clothing that made him look like a prophet of some kind and there was not a hint of malevolence about him- he actually had a sense of... holiness about him. How odd.
"Oh! Makashi! There you are!" Akira smiled to the stranger whom was supposedly Makashi. "I can't remember the na-"
"Verden, his name was Verden." Makashi spoke, his voice level and calm as well as a regal tone held there somewhere. "It's a pleasure to meet you, Valdus." he nodded to the character whom had ground a feather into the ground, there was a smile on his face but a vague uncertainty to it, as if he was aware of the same thing that was making Akira smile but he wasn't quite following it. The strangeness of Makashi wasn't the thing to be thought over, it was the fact that if Akira was something to be wary of due to power... Makashi was a hazard to keep you on your toes, the utter sense of some kind of divine right and heavenly place about him that made him utterly an undesirable being to be around for someone such as Valdus with his 'disposition'. In fact, Makashi was what some cultures refer to as a 'god' but Makashi actually didn't let that get too well known, but Makashi's roleplayer on the other hand likes to let people know that she just brought out someone who was pretty much one of her most powerful and special characters. Because she rarely gets to RP Makashi nowadays.

(sorry, there is an Akina on another site im on and i just got done on that one when i wrote mine lmao)
He didn't let his surprise of the other person be known, although he figured they already knew more than they were letting show. He looked at the newcomer, and back to Akira, it seemed that Akira was straightly demon, but Makashi, he seemed different, the mix of how he appeared to Valdus, seemed almost familiar. Almost with a hunger for the answer he looked at Makashi and said, "What are you?" He kept his eyes fixed on Makashi's, what did he know, by looks, He was the stronger of the two, but they told him what he needed so for all he was concerned about they were trustworthy. "So when do we proceed to this academy?" he asked trying to divert his attention from the two of them. He hated standing here in plain sight from places where a load of demons were that he didn't know, he didn't want to take the risk of being in a place filled with the potential beings who wanted to enslave him for what he is, the "forbidden offspring" as he is so commonly called in the land he is from.
OOC: sorry its short compared to how much i've been doing, i got sick and im slightly out of if at the moment lmao.

Makashi laughed, "I can answer both your questions with a single gesture." he said, a slight shrug and a look of amusement playing over his expression as he looked towards Akira, "This kid has no idea, does he?" he shook his head as he started walking towards the edge of the dock, "Anyways, when shall we be off?" he inquired, the questioned aimed at no other than Akira.
"Whenever you'd like, Darling. I've got all the time in the world but my student is a tad more stressed for time." Akira pointed out with a rather amusing matter-of-fact expression on her face and she took a few steps back while motioning for Valdus to do the same considering it was probably better for his health if he was a few more steps away from the dock's edge at the current moment. Makashi knew what was about to happen, Akira knew what was going to happen and for thier own personal amusement they were going to let Valdus find out soon enough with absolutely no explanation- though it wasn't necessarily Makashi's idea, there was an entire stream of telepathic dialogue between Akira and Makashi where Akira finally convinces her husband of doing this but it's completely irrelevant at the current moment so it shall be overlooked.

Valdus was slightly disappointed with the reply he got from Makashi. "That isn't an answer." he said jokingly. "And i've lived in a forest my entire life, time doesn't really concern me." He was becoming slightly annoyed with these two, he wasn't completely used to being around people he didn't really know so it kinda bugged him. Makashi however confused him the most. "I dont know "what"?" he said stepping forward away from the dock's edge. He was ready to leave for the academy at anytime but the look on Akira's face gave him a worried feeling as though they were about to be attacked by something or other. He stepped forward sliding the lance out of its bagging slightly enough to keep an attack optional. He pushed his attention back to the two. "Now there are obviously somethings you two arent telling me, i would like to know." He could tell when he wasn't being told something, and he had that feeling now.

"I haven't even done anything." Makashi chuckled as he looked towards Valdus and a ripple passed through the air and distorted his figure slightly, then something amazing happened. His mouth elongated and his face turned into something more canine, his body stretched out like it was part of some serpentine creature as scales sprouted over it, Makashi had morphed into a dragon, one of asian decent from the look of him, the ivory horns turning opalescent white and his brown eyes looking towards Valdus from thier feild of seafoam green scales "We can leave for Twilight Moon whenever you wish." Makashi spoke telepathically to Valdus.
"Well theres your biggest explanation right there." Akira said rather dryly as she pointed towards Makashi. "And then another thing to be said was that I chose you as a student because I wanted to teach you specifically and I was allowed to teach you because they thought I was best suited. I'm completely unbiased of your divided heritage- I'm a demon... and my husband is a water god... the whole conflict you face is no new knowledge." Akira smiled, the truth of the matter was that not only was there the holy-unholy issue with a relationship between a water god and a demon... it was thier animal ties as well- the dragons weren't exactly known for getting along well with kitsunes, in fact, they were enemies. Made life hard for certain people. "Anything else you'd like explained?"
((Sorry this post took so long, I was shipped off to summer camp and then I've seriously typed up the same post some eight times (I kept track) and my computer kept freezing or my internet got disconnected and I would lose the post. I'm terribly sorry.))

OOC: What was coming from the dock? thats why i started unraveling the lance lmao. thought something was going to attack. lol
IC: He was quite surprised at the transformation that just took place. "Well," he said looking upon Makashi. "That explains alot to me actually." He finished after analyzing the new information he had just gained. "Well if you requested me, then exactly how much about me do you know? And whats the purpose of him being here?" He pointed at Makashi. "No offense to you though." He made a valid attempt to not insult the Water god. "In my homeland there are very few species other than Angels and Demons," he said giving a small explanation he knew was probably not needed. "And the two majority races are in a constant war with each other." He reached up and gripped his cloak on his shoulder. "Never before in my homeland has someone like me, a mixing of the races, been born. To them this is looked on in disgust, so my parents were killed off and now im being hunted and recruited all at the same time."
He pulled the cloak off and stretched out his wings causing shining black feathers to float through the air."Feels good to spread out." he said randomly. "Anyway, i can head to twilight academy now if you two or i am on a dead line to get there that is drawing closer. The lance have been slid back into its casing. "Just lead the way." he said. He was slightly confused as why they were so eager to get away from the edge.

Makashi showed no sign of being insulted, he actually smiled a bit which consequentially revealed his fangs making the expression seem a tad less than kind though such a thing was not his intention. "If I wasn't here than Akira wouldn't have a way to get you to Twilight Moon in the first place." he explained telepathically, "And Akira's well aware of your parentage, it was the most defining factor in her choosing you, believe it or not. She believes that you remind her of someone very dear to her." Makashi was well aware of who this mysterious person was but made no inkling of a hint as to who it might be, he probably had some kind of purpose for this.
Akira walked towards Makashi, skillfully getting onto the long dragon back and now she looked towards Valdus, actually seeming insulted instead of Makashi. Akira shot Makashi an unpleased glance, obviously the two were having some kind of conversation telepathically which could prove most vexing to most people.

He looked at Makashi,"Well i believe all i need are directions for i am capable of flight." He said. He scratched his head as he folded his ever dark wings under his arms and around his waist. He said with unneeded and unmeant sarcasm,"Flattering." He flipped his cloak back over his shoulders just in time for his stomach to begin growling. He sighed,"How long would it take to get there and should i go ahead and eat now?"He asked, he thought his hunger wouldn't creep up on him so quickly but hey nature is nature. He began to drag his tongue over his sharp carnivorous teeth. It was at times like this he wished he could access telepathy, but then again, he'd rather not know what people thought at times.

"The fact that she's chosen you should be enough, not many students are requested here... though to be honest, I don't extactly see the comparison she's made of you." Makashi yawned wide, "It's Akira's obligation to provide transportation whether or not you can get to the school on your own, she has to atleast offer." the dragon almost looked bored at the current moment, looking towards Valdus, "Feel free to follow to the academy if you must turn down the offer."
Akira seemed unaware of the telepathic conversation, she herself wasn't entirely telepathic, she could only have a mind-to-mind conversation if someone else initiated the conversation with her first, she was passive telepathic. It kinda sucked at times. She simply watched Valdus and Makashi while they had their conversation, she released a slight sigh over her lips as she looked out towards the water and towards Twilight Moon Academy, "Valdus, stay away from the water." she warned, "Don't fly too low if you're flying on your own." her voice was completely serious and it was a warning to be listened to, hopefully Valdus wouldn't be a dumbass and he'd listen to her.

He threw his cloak back over his back."Well im going to take you up on your offer of transportation." He laughed."I myself am not particular to flight, kinda afraid of heights, so i don't fly unless i have to." He pulled out a day old bagel and a small tube of creme cheese and began spreading it on the bagel. He finished spreading and began to rip and chew chunks off the bagel. "So how am i getting my ride?" he asked seeming expecting Makashi to be the answer and this gave him a small bit of amusement. He had been wandering what the fuss over the water had been and now he has been verbally warned his curiosity only increased. "What by chance is in the water?" he asked his thirst for the answer finally swelling over to the point where he couldnt hold the question back. He had by this time finished the first half of the bagel and started on the other repeating his process of spreading on the bagel.
