Plot-Twist: The Fifth Disaster

[Kirfir]

Even though Kar could not be touched by the elements in this form he still ducked his head for cover as fire and electricity roared and crackled all around them, moving closer to Allure in an effort to protect her from it. There was something odd in his movements, like he hadn't quite realized he wasn't fully solid anymore. Those eyes gazed around emotionlessly, wisps of darkness trailing from his form as he padded over to his fallen leader. Bending down to headbutt him in order to try and rouse him into consciousness, his muzzle started to dissolve the minute it came into contact with the Fire Lord. He fixed his remaining pack-members with a dark look, "It's up to you two now. Reiko, if you want you can direct that electricity at me to get rid of it. It won't hurt me and Allure, do the same." It came in a whisper that was black as coal, almost otherworldly though his muzzle didn't open. Light had flooded the area now so they could see everything, all the shadows and darkness having been consumed by Kar. The beast that was standing there could have been another entity altogether, born from a fatal overhaul of power usage. Tilting its head at them, its eyes met Allure's waiting for her permission now that Kerrigon was down. There was no sign of the wolf that it had stolen. Yet from its eyes it signalled a well of comfort to the other black wolf. Perhaps Kar was still in there somewhere.

The flames were dissolved as the painted fae bravely risked her safety for the lone brute. They tumbled along the mulch together in a splotched ball of browns and blacks, dotted with crimson until the last flame was smothered by the pressure of their tumbling bodies. Amber orbs peeked warily from under their enclosures watching Reiko closely. As he saw her gain consciousness his white tipped tail swept the earth twice before curtains closed, reality left perhaps for a moment, perhaps a life time.

[Allure]

To the earth the black wolfess dropped in an attempt to avoid the lighting stemming from the brute she was just attempting to bring back to this life. As the explosion simmered to nothingness a plush pelt was shaken free, few toasted hairs floated to the earth in acceptance of their doom. Although the shadow beast could not be physically felt his presence was comforting to the fae, crimson limbs seemingly following it as it drifted closer to Kerrigon worry consuming her features. Ruby gems slipped to the direction of her adversary, it was vital that they work together not only for themselves, but for all of Fallamora. A feminine skull bobbed once in agreement, We must rid this dancing devil before it consumes us all. It seems that the winds are slowing with thanks to the Wind Pack. But where were the other two packs of the lands? The thoughts of the scared groups scurrying from the lands left as fast as it entered her mind. A last twist of her crown offered softened eyes to the conscious brute. Are you sure you will be alright with such an additional load?

[Kirfir]

A choked, strangled laugh sounded from the wolf's chest, "No but what else is there to loose? Ready when you and Reiko are m'lady," This was magic that was beyond anything Kar had ever attempted. Gathering all the darkness into himself so much that it was combining his very body, his very soul and essence into it was a feat that could go wrong in so many ways and it had. What was left of Kar was his barest essence, stripped down to his core. And another skill that if done wrong could spell his death. Darkness worked in strange ways and unlike the brute force of fire and electricity it worked subtly, discretely choosing sides at will. And in this case it would work for the necessary good as a black hole sucking all that was thrown at it.

Even though Kar would have enjoyed seeing Fallamora burn his loyalty prevented him from doing so. Perhaps he was starting to like these lands. Walking away from Kerrigon so he was at a safe distance from the Alpha he nodded to Allure, the darkness that represented lips on a maw tugging in a mockery of a wry smile. "Let the games begin."

[Reiko Izuka]

"Allure are you ready?" She called out, she was getting ready to summon the lightning herself, to leave Kerrigon rest. "I am not going to hold back the wrath of thunder, so you got to be ready to hold it's flames." She softened her words to ask Allure, she didn't want to scare off the wolf, but didn't want to push her either. "I know it must be hard and scary to bend flames, but keep your mind focus no matter what." She arched her back again, touching her muzzle once more to the ground, this time lifting her tail straight into the skies as a lightning rod for the sky and not Kerrigon.

She had no idea how well she could do this, but she was willing to try. Thunder roared in the skies awaiting her orders as lightning danced along side.

[Allure]

Auds fell to half mast as the brute's reply hit them with the answer she knew was coming yet hoped wouldn't reveal itself. Worry soon was sucked deep within her, they had to do what was neccessary to save Fallamora and all those who reside within the lands. It was time. Pistons pushed the fae several feet from Reiko in an attempt to allow distance and perhaps better control. Rubies locked onto the painted female with a dip of her head Let's do this. All fears were pushed aside, she was prepared.

[Reiko Izuka]

She swept a light smile, encouraging Allure to do her best, although Reiko was going to do her best in out playing Allure. In a silent summon, her dainty paws anchored onto the solid ground, lightning struck ferociously their master at this point. She took the skies ferocity's previous master, Kerrigon, and demanded it's power. A large lightning bolt struck down, thunderous cries soon followed it's wake. Her face cringed a bit at the stinging sensation, soon it smoothed, listening as the electricity beat through her. For what seemed like an eternity to Reiko, was only a moment in reality. Her eyes struck open again in white rimmed black eyes, and a sudden bolt of thunder was released with an intensity so controlled, it burst into flames immediately.

She stayed silent after that, she could understand why Kerrigon was so tired after wards, with the added bonus of controlling Allure's out of control flames. She snuck a look back at the fallen leader, then back at Allure, silently encouraging her to not break her focus this time.

[Kirfir]

Cassiel

Droplets of water hit the injured wolf's charred pelt, sending pain coursing through his body. A slight twitch of his hind leg then a low whine of agony hit the air as water plunged onto his prone form making his wounds seem like every part of his body was on fire. The winds had carried the water from the nearby lake. Weakly, he opened his eyes and wished he hadn't, shutting them again. It felt like his eyeballs were being roasted alive. And all he could see was a blurry figure through a window of red, a male with two rings attached to a torn ear by the looks of it. What remained of Cassiel's fur was blackened, large patches missing to reveal bleeding flesh. An ear was torn and the collar he treasured so much had noticeable bits missing from it and the lettering that had inscribed his name was nowhere near distinguishable. Whimpering, he raised himself to his paws and fell down again as blinding agony shot up his right foreleg and through his ribs. "What...where...? Hey! Hey you...please, can you please help me?"His voice was like dry sandpaper as he tried to call out to the figure. Hallucination or not, it mattered nothing to him. His mind was frantic, images flashing one by one that didn't make sense but he knew he must move. Gritting his teeth, he hoisted himself up on his paws again. A howl immediately escaped his maw, pained and scared. By the gods if they had any mercy they would kill him right then and there.


Fae

As Fae continued to throw out pieces of wind she started to notice a pattern. The more she threw it out at the top the faster it started to die down. "Aura I think I found something! We have to take out the top! It'll go faster that way!" She blurted out. She regretted her action instantly as it broke the song they had struck up but in her excitement she couldn't contain herself. A surprised yelp escaped her maw as the ground suddenly churned beneath her paws due to the rotating mass at the bottom of the twister, breaking her concentration. Stumbling back, she lost her footing and was flung tumbling head over heels backwards into the air.

"Aura I think I found something! We have to take out the top! It'll go faster that way!" Her gaze shifted onto Fae, slight joy in knowing she found a way to better slow the beast down. She too felt the churning of the ground and kept her center of gravity low enough not to fly away. Stretching out her maw, she was able to take hold of Fae before she did fly off to far. "Every one we must move to another location to continue!" she said in an alert tone. "It is not safe here anymore!" She felt their location was in danger, the beast was getting to close and they had to move now. She kept her winds at it, able to concentrate on her Alfena job, and the twister task. Her winds grew stronger, replacing Fae's dying wind. This time she aimed it at the top like Fae pointed out, 'The fire tribe better hurry, we can't do this on our own!'

[Loki]

Ronin[/u][/b]
The wolf backed up several steps, where he had a clear image of the top of the storm. He shut his eyes tight, and let his powers flow to the top, cutting off more from the storm. He egged his own powers on, quietly speaking a mumble of inaudible words. The wind he had taken from his wall was now spread like a tarp over the storm, and he let it drop, taking another bit from it.

Loki[/u][/b]
Loki, hearing Fae's words, pumped as much power as possible into helping his tribe mates. Noting Aura's words, he also took a step back, still transferring the wind into the top. It flowed like water up to it, wrapping itself at the top, and tightened, getting tighter, and tigher as that section weakened.

[Allure]

Allure

Narrowed lanterns fastened themselves upon the painted fae, cranium only tilted slightly. Allure watched her every move and reaction as she mentally prepared herself for the feat at paw. Ebony claws dug themselves into the earth below, silently scattering particles of decayed leaves and dirt. Soft pads swayed until a perfect encasement of mulch formed around them, anchoring her to Mother's hide. A black banner rose to full mast, the tip flipping over her haunches, auds shifting backward stretching to meet the plume.

Allure was for once calm inwardly about this new toy she has been granted, that devilish grin danced upon her maw and pirouetted upon crimson pools in anticipation. Flame kissed limbs stretched, reaching for the flames that Rei had released to her, as a cat toying with a mouse. Her lungs filled with vital gas before being squeezed from her bodice, emptying the air sacs held within her chest. A slender maw parted in a gasp for life, flames flickering their way towards the beauty, slipping through her parted jaws until the last flicker was inhaled. Dark lids closed, blinking and reopening with the eery glow of lava cascading over black pupils. Her ebony coat began to dance in the wind, each slowly transforming into a burning flame until her body was an inferno. Her gaze shifted to Kar's weakening presence remembering his instructions, but the fae refused to potentially harm another. Determination forced a calm over the burning wolfess, the angered blaze slowly sizzling to a simple red aura surrounding her in an awkward beauty.

[Daiki]

Daiki

Auds pushed forward as the fae was not within sight. Emeralds glistened as the shifted calmly over the disastrous lands, a solemn expression capturing his features in dismay. As all seemed as if it were lost to the storm his broad chest lifted an fell heaving a long sigh. The last breath had not yet been squeezed from his lungs and a cry for help penetrated dual auds, causing them to swivel as if they had a mind of their own. This was not the call of one he knew, but it was desperate. Heavy paws pulled the brute along the injured earth with a surprising fluidity and silence, his large skull was held high with nares flared searching for the host of the call.

And there he was, a broken pile of seared lupine, the scent of charred flesh was pungent to the senses, the sight sore on the eyes. Fear encompassed the battered wolf, the energy oozing from his sores was proof enough. Daiki took up residence beside the fellow brute, haunches planting themselves upon the earth as his maw lowered to level with Cassiel's. Words were not needed, he was sure that Cass knew what type of state he was in. A comforting gaze was offered through soft green gems, Be Still, the words were gently demanding. The silver male's focus never broke in an attempt to receive Cass' full attention, as a gentle smile was offered the earth gently shook, a wall of stone forming around the pair. Some protection from the elements would make the stranger more comfortable during his last breaths.

[Castiel]

Cassiel

Fear overtook him as the other brute came closer. Shaking his head he let out a low growl. In a frenzied attempt to back away as quickly as he could the wolf forgot about his injuries. With a yelp that was muffled by the stone forming around them, he landed awkwardly legs splayed out. As the brute spoke he froze, half elated that this wolf seemed friendly half wary. Raising clear blue eyes to the brute's, he whispered in a delirious ramble. "My pack, they...Rei...I don't know where they are. I need..." His words ended in a hiss of pain as he moved. The contact with the earth and the open wounds as he shifted felt like he had been burned a million times over. A red curtain clouded his vision, numbing his senses. He stilled, eys snapping shut again. A single crack of thunder split the skies above them as if encouraging the golden wolf's suffering. In a broken voice, Cassiel choked out, "Who are you? Can you take me to them maybe?" The brute's words were hopeful. He was staring at the ground with pained eyes. It was tainted with blood that was starting to gather around his body, oozing from his exposed flesh. It was starting to fade, the pain. Out of the corner of his eye he spied the stones coming to life. Awe overtook his now scarred features, irreversibly burned. His face was singed, blackened and he winced as his facial muscles screamed in agony. "My name is Cassiel although I don't think it'd matter much longer," He said after a pause.

[Soul [BUSY]]

Soul[/u][/size]

Soul didn't pay attention to the young wolves trying to help him on his feet. His mind was elsewhere, trying to seek out the presence of his pack. His eyes were half closed as his senses reached out to Aura and the others. 'Aura... Aura where are you?' Soul felt bad for dragging Geneva down, and even causing these pups to help him. But if it would get him back to his pack, then so be it.

As his mind returned to reality, he realized the young wolf coming up under his shoulder. His lips curved into a smile, these young wolves were so determined to help him up. Even when the Twister that could claim all of their lives was not to far behind.


Lenalee[/size]

Lenalee eyes slightly opened at Kirabo, with her determination to heal her mentor. But when she felt cold water trickling down her neck, she let out a snarl, and the uncontrollable ice around her shattered into pieces. Her eyes were now open and looking into Kirabo's. The determination that burned in Kira's eyes made Lenalee smile. It's not everyday that the Apprentice heals the Healer.

[Hydrus]

“Fae!” The cerulean winged brute knew enough about his powers to guess that he was doing absolutely zero to help his packmates in that regard. But a helpless female, pushed cruelly about by the winds, was definitely in his department. Besides, Fae was one of his best friends. What would he do without her? “I’ve got you!” He leapt backwards, just as the lithosphere crumbled away under his own paws, and surged towards her. It was almost like half flying, half running in slow motion. The visions he had of catching her safely in his jaws were ruined as another torrent of wind pushed him into her in a most ungainly tackle.
