Eric frowned. "That was cold and mean hearted, but i a bit funny." he said, taking a huge breath. He really didnt want to fight that thing. "Im sure i would have gotten seriuosly messed up if i tried to stop him. Of course you would have been fine, up there on the cieling." he said.

Rayne just shrugged innocently. "It was all truth..." she admitted. A small smirk crossed her lips. "If you knew me by now.... you would know that I love to torment people". She took a subtle smell from the air... "He's afraid...."
Instantly Rayne set off after the boy, running up the wall and onto the ceiling. She only stopped just above him and smirked, changing her appearance to that of a 10 year old girl with red hair and emerald green eyes. She even changed her outfit to a pale green sundress.
Once the change was complete she landed on her feet behind the boy, clasping her hands behind her back innocently. "Hello", she said in a voice that was almost serene. "Why are you running?"

Eric frowned. What the heck was she doing. He was about to object, but instead, he sat back and watched the show. She knew how to really play with people.

But Chip was so terrified that he ran right into the girl, not even realizing that she was there. The frightened cheetah just keep up his 70-mile per hour pace.
Also close to the houses of healing, was Peregrine, walking towards the houses on foot, when a blur of black and orange wizzed past him. He turned around quickly in order to the see what went running so quickly by him, to see the cheetah retreating. Because he knew cheetah's weren't native to Scotland, Peregrine turned around and called,
"Chip? Why are you running."
But Chip didn't hear his call, he was too terrified.

Rayne tilted her head when she noticed that the boy wasn't going to stop.... wait, he wasn't going to stop! "Oh sh*t..." she muttered before bracing herself, instantly changing to her original form. As soon as the cheetah ran into her, Rayne flipped over with expert skill. However.... she did land on her feet, but she tripped over and went rolling across the floor.
Rayne layed there for a moment.... it had been along time she had to pull that move. Then she stood up and walked outside, looking for the kid. Then she spotted Peregrine. In quick reaction she latched herself to the wall and hissed.

A cold, hard look came over Peregrine's face.
"So, we meet again dvampire." He said coldly, then with the sharp sound of metal sliding along metal, he drew his sword and took a few steps toward her.
"Still think I'm pathetic, do you?" He said in a dangerous voice, then his tone changed to a more casual, mocking one.
"I wonder how much the king values you?" He asked as if he was talking to another person. "Wonder how much he pays for hostages, you know, as in randsome money and supplies." He paused again, as if thinking hard,
"No, the King is a cold-hearted dog, best to kill his servant now." He smiled slightly at her. "They say vampires are difficult to kill." He mused, "But a half-breed should be only half the trouble. Tell me, girl, are you well aquaintened with pain?"

Eric followed her out, then saw peregrine. he was about to say hello, but he heard him speak. Eric now became a mediator. "Peregrine, stop. She isnt with the king anymore. I think." he looked over at rayne. She hadnt told him specificly if she was leaving the Army. He had a doubt, but it was quickly overturned by his trust in her.

Rayne hissed again and moved further up the wall. "If you must know,.... the king values me very highly. Along with another dhampir..." she snarled. Pain was something she knew well.... she felt little pain at most times. But as her eyes caught the sight of the sword she moved further up the wall again.
Silver.... she thought angrily... yet her anger was laced with fear.
"But he wouldn't accept me back knowing that I had been saved by a silmaril.... one that I didn't kill", she stated honestly, glancing down at Eric.

Eric met her eyes for a moment, then turned back to peregrine. "There you have it. She isnt going back. And if you still dont believe, then you will have to go through me first." He said stepping between them. "If i can trust her, so can you. She might be of alot of help if she was on our side."

"Exactly...." Rayne said. Then her eyes widened.... what did she just say? Did she agree that she would..... be of help? Apparantly so. Alligence was torn in two..... she still felt loyal to the king.... but she knew that she could be killed for letting herself be healed by a silmaril.
"I know all his tactics.... who's in the army.... the weaknesses of the members", she commented. Build up the trust.... then maybe she wouldn't be hunted. "Who leads the ranks..."

Peregrine raised his dark eyebrows, then laughed.
"I don't even know who you are." Peregrine said to Eric, "I don't even know if your a Knight or a Sceithian, you too could be collaborating together, working together. And even if you aren't a Sceithian." He said to Eric, "She is and she could be lying. I've been at this game long enough to know that words are not always the truth. Actions speak louder then words, and so far all I've been hearing is words." He paused and thought for a moment.
"Actually that isn't true." He added, "I have seen actions. I've seen you chasing the terrified Chip Robin and then trying to trick him while he was in alternate form that you were a harmless little girl. I think you scared him better then even you thought.
So this is ehat you like?" he added, putting venom into his las and his next sentence. "You like frightening children?"
((He didn't see Eric in the battle.))

Rayne narrowed her eyes. "Actions eh?" she sneered, jumping down off the wall. "I like frightening anyone for your information.... and if Eric remembers rightly he was witness to that... kid... frieghtening me. As you did just then".
Her words were dripping with bitterness. "And Eric is a Silmaril... I fought him before he made me turn soft". Then her eyes flashed when she heard the sound of someone gasp... a sceithian spy was standing at the other end of the building. "Traitor..." the man called out. "The king will hear about this Helsing!" Then he turned to run.
Rayne was already on the move after him before anyone could object... up the wall to the roof. She followed him quickly and then tackled him from a height. She was stronger and faster than both of her inheritted species. "I cant let you do that..." she hissed before she did something that no one had ever seen her do in public.... Rayne's fangs became longer as she bent down and latched onto the man's neck. Her prey screamed out in pain as the dhampir found a vein and began to drink his blood.
Fresh blood hit Rayne's lips like honey on ones tongue. Sweet yet bitter at the same time... it seemed so long that she had fed on fresh blood. The only throats that she had managed to feed from were those of the dead.
The man stopped twitching when there was no more blood left in him and Rayne stood up, keeping her back to the Knights. Would they accept her for what she was now.... now that they had seen what she was capable of?

Eric stood there, frozen, but his mind was going crazy. All he thought was to gett away from there, fast. He took one step forward, but fear sent him running back towards the house. On the way he managed to knock over three barrels, two innocent bystanders, and send a fruit cart rolling away. Right before he got to the door he turned around to look....and smashed his head on a low waterpipe. He hit the ground, funny little birds and stars floating in his vision. Asmall amount of blood trickled from a growing knot in his head.

Rayne turned around when she heard a crash. "What the...?" she muttered as she turned. Then she saw Eric make himself a complete idiot by trying to run... but why back to the house.
She cringed when he hit his head on the drainpipe. Even though it wouldn't have to her.... that must've hurt. "Eric?" she asked when she ran over to him, knealing beside him. "You alright?" Please dont try to run again... she pleaded in thought. Why had he run? It must have been because of her.

Eric was very delirious from the impact. The world was spinning, and when rayne appeared next to him, he didnt care, although the birds were getting a bit annoying. He would have played it cool if he was functioning correctly, but instead he said the wrong thing. "When did angels start appearing on earth?" he asked, still not quiet himself. "And when did anvils hurt that much?"
