Thorn squeaked in surprise and outrage as the man picked her up "PUT ME DOWN DO NOT TOUCH ME!" she exclaimed angrily chasing the guy as he exits the chamber he put her in "FIND YOU'RE OWN HORNTAIL!" she yelled flicking her right arm towards the man her chain flying out and wrapping around his nkle stopping him as she pulled back sending him backwards and behind her the chain slipping off his ankle as he passes her jumping up to finish off the last head raking the dagger right across it's throat causing where the wound appeared to turn to stone while the entire dragon crumbles to dust and rubble she growled turning back to the figure "EXPLAIN YOU'RESELF! who are you and what do you want!?!" Thorn exclaimed slightly annoyed at the things audacity "NEVER pick up some one who doesn't like to be picked up you're lucky I don't finish YOU off as well!" she growled holding her dagger to the things throat.

Specter chuckled a bit as he lay on the ground, dagger to his throat. "Why, Thorn.. I'm what's left of your fathers army." he said, as the black slowly faded away from his face. "I'm Specter.. And I'm only fulfilling what your father wanted. Keeping you safe until you take his place." he chuckled, the last of the color fading to reveal Shadow's face, eyes shut and multiple cuts along his face. His eyes slowly opened and he gasped in surprise at seeing the dagger at his throat, before looking up to Thorn. "What happened...? Did I try to attack you?" he asked quietly, eyes staring at her own for a moment before looking to the ground and scooting away from her a bit "I'm sorry if I did.." he let out meekly, his legs coming close, he'd hug them to his body and just sigh "Maybe I'm better off dead with how I am..."

Thorn shook her head putting her dagger away, "it wasn't you horntail took control of me and had forced me to this you're last attack just broke the hold he had over me." she smiles warmly hoping he believed her lie offering a hand to him to help him up, "come on shadow we have training..........I mean you have training to do I need to report to phantom before anything else." she said as she turned to stagger out of the cave her injuries making it harder for her to walk, "no need to find me I'm already here Thorn." said Phantom steping out of the shadows near the rubble that was horntail "that was rather impressive you two it seems something about you Thorn turned him into a blood thirsty creature." he said slightly concerned pointing at shadow, "not now Phantom..............my dual blade pride is broken................." Thorn muttered sadly walking into the shadows to go and pick up the pieces of her pride leaving Phantom and Shadow behind.

Shadow sat there and listened, a small bit of a smile crossing his lips at her words. He grabbed his scythe before taking her hand and standing up, letting it hang over his shoulder. "Then... I'm glad I could help, I guess.." he said, before hearing Phantom. He smiled at first that they wouldn't have to go find him, but then quickly turned to a frown and lowered his head at what he'd said. "What do you mean a bloodthirsty creature..? So, I did attack Thorn, then.. Didn't I?" he asked quietly, just as she started to walk away. "Wait, Thorn!" he called out, following after her only to bump into a wall. He sighed and gripped his scythe tightly as he started to walk from the Cave of Life "Phantom.. Come walk with me, I have some questions." he said lowly, to which Phantom would just shrug and do so. "How much of the fight did you see?" "All of it. You're very protective of Thorn, aren't you?" Phantom would ask. Shadow remained silent a moment, before avoiding the question with "So, what happened to me...? Did the other Shadow get free?" "No, he called himself Specter, I believe.. He was quite powerful, on a level we've only seen from the Heroes and a few others such as Thorn and Rosaro.. Though, much more heartless. He seemed to get great joy out of the pain he caused.." Phantom answered quietly, as they'd reach the outskirts of Leafre. "This is where I leave you.. Take care of Thorn."

she had locked herself in the small room that the halflingers had given her with reports from the alliance and mission details from the alliance and her master Lady syl "I don't feel like I can take any of these right now............i'm always so flooded with requests.........." she said ignoring everything that happened outside the walls of her room even if someone knocked only earning them a 'GO AWAY!' she set down the report she was reading about black wing movements in leafre laying on her bed groaning, "this doesn't make any sense they are becoming more active what are they planning............." she muttered to herself trying to see any patterns in their movements and activity "they are just.............to quiet for my liking." Thorn muttered to herself groaning angrily "this doesn't make any sense! why aren't they swarming to the temple of time where my father is sealed.........what are they planning it has to be something we wouldn't think of......" she closed her eyes to relax and think laying there motionless enjoying the quiet.

Shadow stepped to the door a few times, about to knock but deciding to let Thorn be alone a bit longer. In the meantime he walked around Leafre, talking to the Halflingers and helping a few with small things. He even helped one with baking, and was given a few sandwiches to take with him. He finally knocked at Thorns door, calling to her "Thorn? I think we should talk about what happened at Horntail.. I talked to Phantom, I know about Specter.. I'm sorry for whatever he did." He waited at the door, even if he was told to go away, eventually calling out "I brought something for lunch..", taking a few steps away and stabbing his scythe into a tree, before walking back and giving another light knock "Please let me in, Thorn, I really want to talk about what happened.. I want to hear what happened from your eyes and lips.."

"I want to be alone!" she yelled every time she heard shadows voice she didn't want anyone to see her in her broken state never had she taken such a beating or had her pride broken she didn't even know if she could continue working for the alliance or lady syl the way things were going for her. "if only Evan were here........she would know what to do...." she muttered sadly missing her old friend she hadn't heard form her in months even though she sent regular letters to all her friends Aran Luminous Evan Phantom, the only ones she heard back from was Phantom Luminous and Aran, she pulled out all the old letters they had sent her and read them over still ignoring the occasional knock at her door hoping if she was quiet enough they might think she was asleep "what are you up to Evan............" she said to herself putting them away going to lay on her bed to relax a bit more hoping time alone would repair her pride.

Shadow sighed at hearing that setting the pouch of sandwiches aside and slumping against the door, sitting in front of it. He tilted his head back with a soft 'thump' and stared at the ceiling. "Alright.. I'll be quiet, but I'm not leaving. Not until you actually say something to me, face to face." he said, finding little things to occupy his time like watching the occasional insect flying by or waving to someone passing by. Though, his eyes always turned to his scythe, a heavy sigh when he looked at it, he'd hug his legs ti his body and shudder at the thought that he might have hurt Thorn. About the fifth time his eyes returned to the scythe, he'd walk over and pull it from the tree, looking down to it a moment and yelling out "I fucking hate you!" as he threw it into the air, landing somewhere off in the distance in the forest.

she ignored shadow she ignored everyone all in favor of looking over the reports the alliance sent her about black wing movements. "what are they up to.........." she muttered going over the reports for the fifth time since she had locked herself in her room. "wait.............I think I understand now........." she muttered to herself going over to a map of the entire ossryia continent marking down locations that were mentioned in the reports all of them leading towards leafre, the temple of time, and her own room "I'm endangering everyone here.........I need to leave here now.........." she said to herself grabbing all of her papers and her few possessions stuffing them all into her pocket leaving the room as bare as the day it was given to her "I will honestly miss this room........"she said as she stepped into the shadow of her table disappearing from the town of leafre and stepping out deep in the dragon forest "good bye leafre.............and shadow" she said to herself grimly staggering along still wounded.

Thorn wandered grimly though the forests of leafre on the run from her friends, she didn't want them to see the broken woman she had become. she didn't even know if shadow believed her when she said that he had saved her from horntails control she knew it was a lie but did he............, she couldn't concern herself with that now. "you do realize she is running away right?" said a girl holding a polearm with her snow white hair held in a pony tail, "her pride is broken that is the only thing she really had left out of all the things that's happened to her, without her pride she feels............lost" said the girl sadly knowing all to well what Thorn was going through. "so you're job now is to track her down and make her feel better or face the blade of maha!" she said bringing her polearm into a ready position looking indifferently at the boy but her eyes said she didn't want to hurt anyone unless she had to as a yellowish form appeared next to her, "you know you won't hurt any one who hasn't wronged and he has done no such thing!" said the form "maha hush you know I will do what I must........" said the girl looking sadly at the ground, "well then as the spirit of you're polearm I openly disagree with you're choice!" said Maha defiantly.

Shadow stood in the silence his shouting had created, staring at the ground angrily with his scythe off in the forest. He let out a soft gasp when he heard someone speaking to him, raising his head up to listen. After hearing what she had to say, his eyes shifted about in thought and he grit his teeth as he took off running in the direction he'd thrown the scythe. "Where are you going to start on looking for her?" Shadow paused and gave a sly grin, looking back to the woman "I don't know.. I can't even find my own way. But I can't let her down, I have to find her, even if it kills me." he replied quietly, before continuing to run, through the forest. He grabbed monsters and threw them at one another, and upon finding his scythe, grabbed a Cornian standing near it by the face, crushing it's skull as he pushed it to the ground. "This is mine." he scowled, picking his scythe out of the ground. This thing... Why do I keep coming back to it? he thought to himself, before shrugging it off and running through the forest as fast as he could manage, looking for Thorn. "Thorn! Answer me!"

the girl smiled as the boy ran off to find Thorn, "you were never going to hurt him were you aran!" asked Maha annoyed by how Aran had acted. "nnope you really think I have a reason to hurt him? he has done nothing wrong yet." she said smiling brightly quickly following the boy just to check on Thorn "so what are you going to do with her? I know you were sent to check on Thorn but what is you're plan Aran?" asked Maha curiously floating behind Aran as she walked, "well................help her if I can I know she is still denying her parentage so I was hoping I could find a way to help her." Aran said happily, "and if she doesn't want help? from what Phantom described she is pretty broken up about what happned." Aran said more to herself then anyone else.
~Thorn~ she heard someone running through the forest yelling her name, "why can't they leave me alone!" she groaned ducking into a hollow in a tree hiding in the darkest corner hoping the person would pass her and leave her alone, "why can't people understand when some one wants to be alone.........." she muttered sadly pulling out a sandwhich to chew on.

Shadow started to pant quietly and slow down to a stop, huffing a bit as he'd call out "Thorn! I just want to talk to you! Please, Thorn!" he stabbed the scythe into a tree and fell back onto his rump, staring up at the sky. "Damn it.." he let out, scolding himself "I can't protect anyone.." he sighed and lay back, an arm crossing over his eyes.
"I'm so useless, I can't even help someone that helped me.." he said before jumping up and gripping his scythe. "Reap!" he yelled out, eyes glinting red a moment as his scythe ripped through the tree it was in, sending a shockwave out far enough, strong enough to hack away several trees. He let out a grunt as he saw a group of monsters, spinning himself to swing another wave at them, splitting them into halves. "Pitiful, now... Where could Thorn be?" he asked softly, a bloody X in his shirt, perfectly synched with that large scar on his chest.
