Don't Even Try to Hide (Blade)

[Nami]

(Moro is her terrifying beauty)

Moro stood atop her hill, looking down at her wolves. The Dark Bloods. All the land she could see belong to her and if it didn't, she'd get it shortly. Mars was dead. That realization still brought an ache of pain in the Queen's silver chest. She had killed her sister because it was the right thing to do. She was protecting the kingdom and her beloved Mars. Moro had been the wolf Venus confided her darkest secrets in late into the night, who had coming seeking comfort and advice. Although Moro was not the eldest, she had always been seen as the oldest one. She and Venus were the best of friends, until Venus got the one thing Moro truly wanted. Mars. Moro and Mars had been good friends, and he had met Venus through her. Venus had fallen in love with Mars and Mars fell in love with Venus. Moro was heartbroken and the very memory brought a quivering sickness to the Queens throat.

She shook off the memory and snarled, "Bring in the prisoner!" She needed to run off some steam and anger. Moro's eyes burned with red rage at seeing the White Blood enter her domain. He was young, with a hansom face. The dark Queen smirked at him as he looked up into the face of the wolf who held his destiny. Moro padded down to where he was, she smiled at him, trying to give him some false sense of security. "What is your name child?" Everyone was a child to Moro, she was at least 100 years old. Had it really been that long, since she had killed her sister? The memory flashed before her eyes, before she had chance to contain it. It had been a few years since Mars and Venus's marriage and coronation to become King and Queen of Haze and Moro had finally lost all grips with reality. Moro had realized her sister was unequipped to rule Haze, let alone be Mars's mate. She had been quietly gathering followers and troops, ready to kill her sister. Now it was time to attack.

"Twark and my death will not help your cause. Mars will return and kill the beast that sit in his throne." The prisoner's voice was filled with venom, cutting through Moro's memories.

The Queen laughed, "Twark, Mars is dead, or dying slowly as we speak. I'm the only one with power now. Quit living a lie." Moro kept her voice level, circling the male. "Your so young." she commented smiling sickly at him. She was answered with a glare. Moro payed no mind to it, "So, you were sent as a spy, by who?" The beautiful queen moved her fair face in. She loved to see the shocked looks on wolves' faces when she first got to see her. No, she wasn't an ugly beast with sagging, rotting skin. She was beautiful. Terrifyingly beautiful.

"If you think I'll tell you, your dumber than you look." Twark snarled.

Moro kept her icy glare set straight in Twark's eyes, her voice shaking slightly, "I'd watch your mouth boy, or you might lose your tongue."

Twark remained quiet, staring straight into Moro's gaze, his eyes showed bravery, strength and truth. They were a hansom brown. They reminded Moro of Mars's eyes. His hansom, kind eyes. The Queen shuttered, closing out the pain once again. She instead turned it into hot rage. Moro snarled and slammed her body onto Twark's knocking him clean to the ground. The Queen stood over him, snarling her upper lip quivering. Her fangs, blood stained, glinted in the light of the sun. Moro moved her face closer to Twark's ear seething, "Scream boy, and I might let you live in the Caverns."

"The only one who will scream will be you, when Mars has his mouth wrapped around your throa--," Twark's voice was replaced with the sound of choking and gurgling. Moro had snapped her jaws right around Twark's throat, making sure to cause pain and slow suffocation. Moro pulled back, blood soaking the ground around Twark's empty shell.

"BLADE!" Moro roared, her voice sounding as if it had joined a chorus of many. She sat beside Twark's body and pushed him to his side, so his youthful, hansom eyes did not stair lifelessly up at her. Moro lowered her head shaking and spat, "Mars." as if it was poison in her mouth.

Blade ...



I padded quickly into the room and saw a dead wolf.
"Good kill, my gracious Queen" I said, bowing down low to her.
I wondered what she wanted and instantly her beauty over whelmed me.
But i knew she would never want some one like me.
I stared at Twark, the one i had caught.
I had sent the guards after him ...
Twark thought i was a white blood as of my light coat.
But no...
That was a good thing about having a blonde coat.

[Nami]

Blade's voice brought some comfort to her disturbed queen and she turned, "Get someone to take this mess out of my sights. But before you do that," She paused and walked over to Twark, putting her paws in the fresh flow of blood, then said, "I am grateful for your service." She placed her paws on Blade's chest and left two blood paw marks on him. She smiled and sat back down and looked over at Twark's body again. Shivers went up and down her spine, "When that's finished--we need to talk."

[Emily Coleman]

"Yes, great Queen. Delyn, Leo! Get in here and clean this mess up for your Queen ... NOW!" I barked as the two smaller black wolves dragged Twark away and licked up his blood.
I waited until they went and then snarled behind them.
"Yes, my Queen?" I asked, turning back to the beautiful wolf.
I looked down at the dried paw prints and licked them ... they tasted salty.
I stared at the Queen, amazed by her amazing beauty.

[Nami]

Moro turned back to him and motioned for him to follow, up onto her mound of cold, hard ground and then into the forest, "As you may know, there is talk of a great uprising to come." the dark Queen paused right before they were fully underneath the tree canopy. She turned to face Blade, her expression dark, "I have foreseen an image of a young wolf, black with a silver scar. Her eyes are blue, like Mars. She was last headed for the Cavern. Throw her into it." Moro resumed walking, willing Blade to run with furry and fleet of foot. But before he cmake a turn to leave she added, "Instead--find out what she is all about, do what you do best, my pet. Then, once you know all there is to know, throw her into the Cavern!" the dark Queen laughed evilly at her own plan. She trusted Blade, he and Marous were her top spies. She knew Blade could handle it.

[Emily Coleman]

"Easy as your selfish's sister bones" I nodded, smiled and ran my fastest, heading over to the Cavern.

I saw her.
I hid behind a mound of rock and grass, watching her.
She seemed to be talking to herself .... using the power Moro had granted me, i sent a mind message to her.
She is a manic! She is talking to herself! I scoffed in the message.
I waited for my Queen to respond ... watching ... waiting ... listening.

[Nami]

Moro waited for Blade to send her a message of whether the wolf was there or not. She heard Blade's voice echo in her head and what he had to say sent a cold chill down Moro's spine. The Queen let out a scream that shook every wolf to the core who fell underneath her voice. With a crazed look in her eye, Moro ran deeper into the woods, running straight towards a cliff side. She knew that if she through herself down, she would live, but she needed to calm herself. No one dared to bother her in this moment of search panic. Once she was calm, she formed a plan, "I will turn her to the Dark Blood's side. Mars will lose his warrior." She laughed evilly, quietly and trying to talk herself. She then sent a messaged that snarled, "Don't let on your a Dark Blood my pet. Watch her until she is finished talking with herself. She will most likely walk out. Be careful.'

[Emily Coleman]

I listened, frowning.
Of course my Queen. Do you know what she is doing? I asked, watching her get dragged on her own paws and squished over to a wall.
Before i could even gasp, a startling big white wolf appeared in front of her, hushing her.
He scanned the view and then saw me.
Oh crap! I screamed to her as he curled his lip.
My darling Queen ... it appears Mars ... is alive I gulped.

[Nami]

Moro crumbled to the ground, choking on her own breath, she could feel the magic Mars was radiating through Blade. Although Blade did not feel it, Moro could. She gasped for air and then seethed, "She is talking to Mars you!" She snapped and snarled, "Don't let Mars touch you!"

She waited for Blade to respond. She could not insult him now, she needed him to come back alive and unharmed.

[Emily Coleman]

He's not touching me! I'm exactly 40 metres away! I sent, trembling at her angry voice.
Mars snarled at me and i laughed evilly.
"Yes, you did help my mother. But look what i turned out to be when i was expected to be a white blood ... that's why i killed my mother! She was a white blood. And i could get Moro to kill you easily!" I snapped back at Mars's calm face.
He had been there when my mother, Juliana, had given birth.

[Nami]

Moro snarled and called out, "It doesn't matter! Keep your distance no matter what! And don't look him in the eyes! Keep your eyes away from his eyes!" Moro was so frightened for Blade. But why? She was a powerful queen, she could easily find a replacement. Why was Blade to important to her?


((ooc: aww first signs of love. ;P))

[Emily Coleman]

I ran back through the forest, head and legs throbbing.
Soon, i fell to a stop behind Moro.
I didn't even have the strength to tell her i was here ...i howled and screamed in pain.
It was like my insides were being twisted and pulled.
"Mars ...." I grunted in pain ... and then every single thing went blurred.

[Nami]

Moro screamed and ran to her spy's side. She sniffed him, sensing a strong magic worming it's way through Blade's body. She howled and tried to pull the magic out of his body. She felt it give way a little and Moro grunted as she pulled the magic harder, then it was gone, as soon as it broke the barrier of his body it was as if it was shucked away somewhere else. Moro felt beside Blade and licked his shoulder, "Awake my loyal warrior. You must awake." She waiting, willing Blade to open his eyes. His beautiful eyes. Her heart raced. She couldn't lose Blade, not Blade!

[Emily Coleman]

I panted, blinking hard.
"Moro. Thank you, my Queen. I am for ever grate ful" I gasped for breath and got it, sighing contendly.
I looked up at Moro... my Queen.
My amazing, beautiful, saviour Queen.
I loved her so much ... i just hoped she liked me.
I reached my neck up and licked her muzzle softly and then bowed my head, ready for a blow.

[Nami]

Moro let out a sign of relief and smiled down at Blade. To her great shock and surprise Blade reached up and licked her on the muzzle. She froze, she had never been touch that way before in her life. It was wonderful to know what she wasn't just feared and adored but--loved. Blade bent down ready to take to blow of touching the queen, but Moro did nothing. She smirked, trying to pretend that Blade was just a young, innocent child--she walked off and waited for Blade to follow.

[Emily Coleman]

I watched as she walked off and followed, watching her hips sway.
"What now?" I asked, trotting up to her side.
My darling Queen was so beautiful .. i couldn't stress it enough.
I had kissed her ...
And she had done nothing about it!
Sweet doggy, maybe she liked me!
Or ... dare i think it, loved me?
But then i sighed.
Of course not.
She loved Mars ...

[Nami]

"We must rally troops my pet. A war is upon us." An evil grin shown across Moro's fair muzzle. She howled once she was out of the forest, calling the Dark Bloods to come. To come and make ready to fight. Soon, dark figures began to come from the dark of the forest, their eyes fixed on their Queen. They joined in the howl, ready to fight along their beloved queen.

Moro laughed and snarled, her voice sounding as if it joined a chorus of many, "Don't even try to Hide, White bloods. The Dark Bloods will find you!" It wasn't a threat, it was a promise. A true, and powerful promise.

[Emily Coleman]

"Sit in front of your Queen, you oafs!" I snarled at the members.
They planted their bums on the ground, facing Moro.
They looked at me as second in command.
"Heads up, backs straight! Your magnificent Queen Moro has an evil announcment! Anyone not listen will be killed with my bare teeth!" I roared out, letting Moro take the stage.

[Nami]

Moro was silent, giving them all a look and listen or else, "My loyal subjects. Dark Bloods. Moro Warriors!" She paused the wolves howling in approval. "The time of war is upon us! It's time for all the white bloods to be wiped out. We will destroy the hope and will of the white bloods once and for all! Dark Bloods, will you fight along the side of your queen?" She was silent taking in the sound of snarls, growls and howls of approval. She howled loudly, her voice dominating all the others. She was ready. "Come and get me now Mars." She growled to herself.

[Emily Coleman]

"Mars leads the pack. We must be strong and brave warriors to fight him ... but we already are!" I snarled after Moro trailed off.
Gasps of astonishment followed my confirmation that Mars was alive.
After they had cleared off, i led Moro back into the castle.
"My Queen. Incase i happen to die in the battle ... i just want to say i respect you ... and i love you" I bowed low, pressed to the ground, respect and love and honour shining from every hair on my body.
I loved her.
