(Don't ask... I just felt like having the title be a little kooky)
"Well, well, well... if I were hellspawn... where would I be?" she gave a mental chuckle at the thought and she let her vision wander the forest around her, she made careful not to make the slightest noise, which was something she was fairly good at, Kyar had taught many things, unseen movement was one of them, as well as bladed combat, which included even throwing knives, tracking, concealment, and sharpshooting of various forms. She could assume that Julius had the same tutoring as well which would mean that if someone actually was in the forest, then they would be likely to be found.
She honestly had no clue as to whether or not the others had decided to follow her into the forest, but she didn't care. She had to act as if she genuinely wished to seek out Eithne and so she did, though she didn't neccesarily seem to be enjoying herself.

"So, do you have any ideas cooked up?" Damon thought to her, coming down from above. He had been traveling through the treetops, pretending to look for "Eithne". "I mean, what happens when we don't find anybody? Even if he goes off and leaves us alone, eventually someone will tell him who you are." He scratched the back of his neck with his claws, looking around for Julius.

Julius followed the two his eyes shut. He was sending his thoughts through the forest seeing who responded. He got some small responses from smaller animals and even the living trees had there own responses to his thoughts. As his mind went through the forest his mind found an intelligent life form. The person was about a couple miles ahead. Julius ignored the two taking the lead. He knew where he was going know. "There is someone close to us." he said to them. He then spoke to Eithne again through thought only, and to her only. "Do not compare me with you. You may be powerful, but also put into aspect that my true powers are all sealed away. So don’t say things like you can kill me right now if you want to. You know as much as I do that if we fought there is no telling the outcome.”

"Damon, I'll just have to inform as many as possible... and hope none of them talk to this guy before I get to them." she explained before she let her eyes fall on Julius and she reached for her necklace.
"Don't use that to consider yourself so much more powerful." she almost seemed to laugh with the comment before she tucked the pendants back in her jacket so they wouldn't get in the way and she looked around the forest with a glance, "Have you always had telepathy, or did you have to drink someone's blood for the ability?" she inquired, genuinely honest.
(Yeah, Eithne isn't immediately telepathic. I want you to be aware of this. She's just telepathic because she assimilates someone's powers when she drinks thier blood... It's an ability that I consider all vampires have... I don't know if your vampires are the same... so... meh. *shrugs)

Julius smiled. "I have been able to ever since I was turned." He told her through thoughts as he continued a steady pace. They were getting closer and closer to the person, or being, or whatever was out there at the moment. Julius turned to her again. "Is there any other personal questions you want to ask? I'll try to answer as much as possible." Julius made this move for one reason. In hopes that he can find what ever she was hiding from him. Otherwise Julius would just go search on his own. Also if she asked the right questions then Julius could find more about her. There was some questions she would only ask if she alot about him. Also it would reveal just how much Kyar had told her about him.

Damon leapt back up into the trees, staying a few dozen yards in front of them and scanning ahead. Why he was doing this, he had no idea. Perhaps because it was one of the few truly interesting things that had happened here. That, and he wanted to see how things would turn out. "Do you have any idea who or what he sensed?" he thought, feeling a bit strange. It was like a voice in his head answered all of the questions he pondered.

Eithne nodded, "A power you aquired, then... interesting..." processed the thought silently, "You have strong mind guards, did you practice them... or were you placed in certain... circumstances where they developed naturally over time?" She wanted to know this, because Kyar trained mind guards, she recieved little schooling on the bit, though. They were always stronger if they were learned from real threats, from experience of real invaders. She would find out whether or not Julius had been immediately trained by Kyar, giving her an idea of his seniority to herself. It was rather important.
"I don't know if he can sense you, but it's likely. He's probably just letting you have your fun. I can even smell your living, human blood. It's choking the air and your pulse is positively music." she shrugged, "As to anyone else, I have no clue." She kept Julius from hearing any bit of her conversation with Damon, she liked her privacy.

"If you're thinking of doing your little vampire thing on me, you're welcome to try. Not that I wouldn't like the whole super-long life thing and all, but I don't like the idea of becoming a blood-sucker." He smirked, glancing back toward them. "So far, vampires haven't given off a very positive vibe." He thought for a moment, then came down to land once more. "Thanks for the compliment though, if you can call it that."

Julius sighed he was about to reveal something that was a little bit to much. But it would explain just what kind of power Julius had. He spoke just to Eithne again, while keeping his normal pace. "When I was first turned I destroyed my entire village in a single hour. The village had 500 villagers all woman, men, and children. Kyar taught me the minimal of things at most. I expanded on that until I became known as the person feared by almost all vampires." Julius stopped as his eyes turned onto the person he had sensed. Standing in front of Julius was a 18 year old emo boy. He was dressed in a cloak and had a staff in his hands. He had black shaggy hair and he spoke aloud to Fionne. "Who is this man Eithne?"[i/] Cowl asked. Julius turned his eyes to the human. With amazing speed his gun was drawn and pointed at the real human in the trees. His eyes were full of anger. He knew something was up.

"You mean to say leech, don't you?" she asked Damon, a slight chuckle in her telepathic voice, "And don't flatter yourself, I don't wish to turn you or bleed you dry. So you can relax." she stopped when Cowl was seen and she cursed in her mind.
Luckily, though- Julius seemed to think that Damon was Eithne. She couldn't believe this.
"Don't be such a stupid bastard." she shook her head, "My name is Eithne Byrn, daughter of the mage Blaise, as well as childe of Alysdair, and apprentice of Kyar. You'd disbelieve everything I tell you, except my name- don't you believe I'd give a false identity?" she let Julius, Damon, and Cowl hear the words, no need to hide them, "Now tell me why you wish me dead when we both seem to be of common goal." she was utterly calm, icily so and she looked levelly at Julius, awaiting a response. "Alysdair is your enemy, is he not?" She couldn't let someone take the fall like that, she had some pride and sense of honor.

"Well then, lucky for me I'm not worthy," he thought with a laugh, bursting into a cloud of black-purple smoke. With a rush, he solidified next to Eithne, knowing with the two of them together, Julius was less likely to attack. "You didn't have to do that, you know, but it's nice to finally cut to the chase," he said, crossing his arms and watching the others. "And by the way, no. Vampires are far more poetic than leeches. And slightly nicer."

"Don't cut to conclusions as such, I have an honor code, believe it or not. I won't let someone else get injured for my problems. What I did had absolutely nothing to do with kindness or such feeble emotions of the sort." she shook her head and for a moment, her eyes carried a dark sheen to them like some sort of poisoned opal. She blinked it away and she focused back on the current situation, figuring out whether or not she'd have to waste her time with such a bother as fighting someone who was utterly meaningless, sure... Kyar wouldn't be too happy if she killed another apprentice. She shook her head, she wouldn't kill him, though perhaps convince him that fighting her wasn't the best idea, sounded good enough.
Still though, the same sheen of darkness clung to the edges of her eyes, she was disreguarding everything that Cowl had said to her earlier, that denying emotions like love and caring is what would make you a demon. She seemed to have decided it didn't matter, and that she was to be a demon no matter what she did. That's what vampires were anyways, wasn't it? To anyone else, this small occurance, this slightest detail was nothing... the only one who would even catch it would likely be Cowl, maybe Damon if he was paying really close attention, but Julius obviously had different things on his mind.

"Liar," Damon thought quietly. "I don't buy it. I can see it in your eyes," he said in his mind, dropping his only hint that he could see the color change. "Not to mention the fact that I'm a shadow clone, and Damon is actually in your room, probably lying on the floor and waiting in case he's needed. Why would you feel the need to protect a clone, unless you simply didn't want to see the person get hurt?" He decided it was better not to push the subject too much, at least not with Julius' finger on the trigger.

Julius lowered his gun as he looked away from the two. He spoke aloud to Eithne. "If you know so much about me then why did you ask me all those questions? Why not reveal who you really were, since you know my agenda and my enemy?" He sighed and turned to Cowl. "I thank you for your help. Our agreement." He took out a small bottle with a green liquid on the inside and a stopper in it. He threw it to Cowl. The liquid he had handed him was very rare. He had no idea what this boy Cowl would do with Dragon Blood, but nothing good ever came out of it. Julius had known from the start that one of these two had to be Eithne. After all there were only a few vampires in this entire place, and Cowl had been generous enough to meet him in this forest. And by the off chance that Eithne wasn't a vampire there were only few people who would know her. So either way he would have come out ontop.

Eithne narrowed her eyes at Cowl, "Believe it or not, Kyar doesn't tell many people about his former apprentices. Such as you. I wouldn't have known he had another if I hadn't had seen you before." she kept a glare steady on Cowl, obviously rather displeased with him. "And Cowl here really had a deal with you, then? What for? Letting you know who was Eithne?" she asked, she didn't bother keeping it to a specific person, it would obstruct conversation, after all. Cowl actually had a chance of living and those chances just decreased considerably.
