Neeks looked at the hydra.<br>
<br>
<!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>I'm am looking for a new place to start an apothecary,</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> she said. <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>Do you know where there might be a good location?</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END-->

To tell the truth, Darkember was a tad surprised to feel her not shift beneath him, twisting to suddenly snap him up like a midnight snack. Perhaps, if anyone, <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>she</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> could be trusted. Tentatively, he climbed from her wing to her back, perching awkwardly as he was war not to scratch her with his claws. It certainly would not do to irritate her when he was at her mercy upon her back. He remembered Olbaid and that wild ride that resulted in him breaking a few bones...no, the raccoon was loathe to have any sort of repeat like that, especially since he doubted that there were any healers nearby, especially any that would want to help someone like him. Feeling as if he owed her something for simply coming over here without a malevolent intent, Darkember told her, <!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:lime;">"My name is Squiji."</span><!--EZCODE FONT END-->

Mabyn stood as still as she could while he climbed onto her back and started to laugh a bit as his delecate setting. "<!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:fuchsia;"><!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>My name is Mabyn Scott, and you needn't not be so gentle. infact, you should probably hold on tightly.</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--></span><!--EZCODE FONT END--></em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> " she said softly, turning her head to look at him from the corner of her eyes. slowly her wings spread to either side, each flapping several times and lifting her streight up into the air. Her body - cover'd in feathers - was a sight to see.. Small soft feathers moving up and around with each beat of the wing. Dropletts of water sprayed through the air as her wings hit the water delecately. <br>
<br>
Trying her hardest to remain smooth in the trip she slowly made her way to the shore, her feet getting no more than 6 inches off of the surface of the water, and often gliding through it.

[Neco the Nightwraith]

Hydrus sat down on a patch of moss and flicked her webs over the surface of the water. The born sea creature had gotten quite used to these fresh river waters.<br>
<br>
She watched as Mabyn rescued Squiji from the rock.<br>
<br>
((Er, braindead now.)

[guess i'll post again]<br>
<br>
Softly her clawed feet landed upon the ground of the shore and she slowly lowered herself to laying upon the ground, her wing stretched out. "<!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:fuchsia;">There you go little creature, you are free of the water's dangers</span><!--EZCODE FONT END--></strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END-->" she said softly, her black eyes closing as her mouth formed a crude smile.

Darkember held on tightly to the creature’s feathers as she skimmed above the water of the river, gliding gracefully to the rich soil of the shoreline. They landed softly and she lowered herself to let him dismount, which he did with a cute little hop, landing upon all fours as easily as any feline would. Darkember turned his masked face slowly, gazing at the hippogriff in a new light. Obviously she was not going to eat him, why toy with him by saving his life then brutally ending it? <!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:lime;">“Thank-you very much for saving my life,”</span><!--EZCODE FONT END--> Darkember said with heartfelt gratitude. He bobbed his two-toned head, feeling as if there was something he needed to add… <!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:lime;">“Uh, anything I can do for thanks?”</span><!--EZCODE FONT END--> he offered uncertainly.

Mabyn lowered her head, a small sigh excaping her. "<!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:fuchsia;">i have no friends...</span><!--EZCODE FONT END--></strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END-->" she said in hushed tones.<br>
<br>
Slowly her wings filded agaunst her sides as she laid her feathered head between her front claws (layung much like a dog.)<br>
<br>
Again she spoke, still in an almost silant voice "<!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:fuchsia;"><!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>but i could not ask such a thing merely for being a kind soul...</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--></span><!--EZCODE FONT END-->"<br>

Hydrus popped her head up.<br>
<br>
"You don't have any friends? Why not?" she asked, with simple bluntness.

<p></p><i></i>

[kitty rei]

Mabyn turned towards the hydra, sighing softly "i just arrived here today. I've not had a chance to meet anyone really." she shrugged in an odd way and laid her head back between her for-claws

[Neco the Nightwraith]

Hydra leaned back into a tuft of grass, laying her back spines close to her skin. Even she had met a few people just on her arrival, a skinny amphibious creature lost and looking for water.<br>
<br>
"How sad," she said. Then rolled to an elbow. "I'll be you're friend!" she said, out of the purest generosity. "I might not be able to tell you all about the forest but I'm certain you wouldn't mind having someone with you around the river. I picked this bend to be my home. -But I always hope that I will go back to the ocean and find another of my kind," she said, and her voice obtained a depressive tone.

<p></p><i></i>

[kitty rei]

Mabyn smiled "i hope you do too, Hydrus" she said politely. "And i would gladly be your friend.. just please dont strand creatures on the rocks anymore"

[Neco the Nightwraith]

Hydras back stiffened, the long thin spines bristling as she looked at Squiji. "You would understand only if you had been robbed of a convinient meal."<br>
<br>
She turned and away and jumped to her feet, before splashing into the water. A fish flashed silver in the deeper water and she dove head first in after the meal, resurfacing with it clamped in her needle sharp teeth. Perching in the shallows she proceeded to rip it to shreds and swallow the strips whole.

<!--EZCODE CENTER START--><div style="text-align:center">({I greatly apologize for the delay, RL’s being a butt})</div><!--EZCODE CENTER END--><br>
Darkember was struck by surprise at Mabyn’s words. <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>She</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> did not have any friends? Even <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>Squiji</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> had friends, and most of the people he met wanted to eat him! Mabyn was nice, she had saved him from the evil hydra and brought him back to dry land, which everybody knew cats preferred to rushing water any day. And now she was not even asking for something in return. The raccoon simply could not understand it. Usually the only reason anyone helped him was because they wanted something back in return. He was so surprised that he couldn’t find his voice to make a suitable reply. When the hydra offered to be Mabyn’s friend, Darkember shot her a dirty look. Why would his savior ever want to be friends with someone like <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>her</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END-->? Beady black eyes glared incredulously at Mabyn as she accepted. What kind of world was this?! <!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:lime;">“Not my fault I lost my balance,”</span><!--EZCODE FONT END--> Darkember muttered darkly. <br>

Mabyn listened to Hydrus and glared a bit before turning back to the creature nearby <span style="color:fuchsia;">"<b>I do not blame you, and neither should hydrus, but i cannot control others</b></span>" she sighed and slowly stood, her wings folding against her sides "<span style="color:fuchsia;"><b>I should go now, no reason to hang out around the water...</b></span>" she said softly walking towards the woods.

<p></p><i></i>

[Neco the Nightwraith]

Hydrus stared after the hippogryph serenely, licking shreds of fish from between her teeth.<br>
<br>
"See you later, perhaps," she said. She wasn't going to stop Mabyn from leaving her territory. As for the raccoon....she looked at him. <br>
<br>
"Get out of my terrritory, lest I eat you for real." <br>
<br>
She turned away.

<p></p><i></i>

[kitty rei]

Soft eyes fell upon Squiji <!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>"If you wish, you may join me. I sertainly wouldn't mind the company. "</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--> she said softly, turning halfway back around to face the stripped beast. <br>
<br>
Mabyn lowered a wing to the ground, bending her front legs slowly in order to invite the creature onto her back once more.

[Calumbidarae]

Darkember was a bit startled when Mabyn suddenly suggested that she leave. After all, hadn’t she just said that she wanted friends? And they, who would willingly share such a relationship...well now she was simply fleeing them. At Hydrus’ comment, Darkember couldn’t help but stick his tongue out at them. She deserved far worse, but at the moment, he was a little crushed for ideas. Besides, such an action had proved to most irritable to creatures like the hydra. The black and grey head turned towards Mabyn at the hippogriff’s suggestion and his beady black eyes lit up. <!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:lime;">“Sure, Mabyn! Where’s we going?”</span><!--EZCODE FONT END--> Darkember asked cheerfully, climbing atop her back with much more gusto than he had the first time. By now, he had learned she was trustworthy, in fact, quite very friendly. Darkember settled himself comfortably, eyes glittering with good cheer.

[Neco the Nightwraith]

Hydrus snarled and spit, before standing up and leaping into the water, headed for her underwater lair, that which she had made in a crevice of rock.<br>

Sighing, Mabyn looked around at the now vacant area about them "i'm not sure.. i was told there was a colony of beings like me around this river, though i'm not sure where they are..."
