(( Those sound interesting! Oh thank you! ))

As Kails hopes of ending the battle quickly began to fade a voice shouted from behind him, “I can help! Two-sided Blade aerial attack!.”
Seeing this girl flip into the air astounded Kail. After all she’s been through she was still able to fight! Nayumi revealed two blue polls, which seemed to have sharp ends at the end, and combined them into one. Kail just stared as she whipped the silver blades around her body. The blades seemed to shine without the need of light. Like a tornado Nayumi succeeded in slicing the bird in two.

Just then Kail noticed something shimmering in between the two half’s of the bird. The sun shone through the split in the bird, it was hard to see but something was definitely there. As Nayumi came out of the spin and began to descend to earth she chirped cheerfully,

“Yes, we did it! Huh, that was easier than I thought. I wonder—“

Nayumi was struck from the back by a claw which ripped her skin.

“NO!” yelled Kail as he stepped forward to help Nayumi.

“Stop! The best way we can help her is to kill that beast!” said Zaick agitated, “Have you forgotten everything? Look at the beast, its regenerating. We won’t be able to just rip its head off. Tho that would be fun… ”

"Kail, it seems like this is a regenerating bird using some kind of device so that when its body is destroyed, it can recover in a heart-beat," Nayumi explained, her voice drifting a bit. "In order to defeat it, you have to slice at its stomach and find a floating object that will glow whenever the bird needs to regain its composition."

The bird began to descend once again. This time it was diving for the injured Nayumi! Kail sprinted into action, leaving dust and ash in his wake. Due to his speed his hood fell off his head revealing a young man’s face about in his late twenties, with short brown hair that was stretched in all directions. Thought, that was not the surprising part. The left half of Kails face was not human, but that of a demon. His ear was pointed at the tip and little spikes/needles extended from it (the spikes/needles don’t just stick out they all point back words…hope that makes sense I just didn’t know how to phrase it =( )). The red scaly demon skin extends up the left side of the neck, the cheek, and extended to left eye also. Instead of being dark green like his right eye his left eye was a rotten red with what looked like broken glass in the red. His pupil faded from black into a purple abyss.

Kail jumped into the air and punched the bird, as it was a few feet away from its prey. The punch from kails left hand sent the bird off course and smashing its face into the hard ground. Its momentum helped the body of the bird slide 8 more feet. Using this time to his advantage Kail ran once again to the side of the beast. Using his left hand yet again Kail ripped off one of the wings to get a clear shot at the belly. He had to act fast because the regeneration was already working with the beast unconscious. Kail thrusted his left hand into the belly of the beast and started moving it side to side in search of the artifact.

(( Sorry about the repost stuff at the beginning. awe toxcicle posted if you want me to encorperat her actions in I can just tell me, and sorry about the long post I didn't want to go on more tho cause I thought it'd be bad to do long posts? and I'm tired...))

Nayumi felt her eyes shift towards the approaching Kail, when suddenly, his hood flew off his head by a sudden wind. A young man with short, messy brown hair sprinted towards her. She began to move her lips, as though to utter something, when her seagreen eyes widened like tiny moons in the night sky, swarming with water from the sea.

"Kail?" Nayumi felt her voice drift to the rate of an innocent child. "Why...?"

"Could that too be another demon?" Nayumi suddenly realized after her voice trailled off. "What if it tries to kill Hikari or perhaps...me? After all, we are the weakest ones here, besides the two unconscious allies. Wait, what if it tries to take the lives of those that are awake, gazing at us with twisted eyes?"

She tried to lift her body upwards, but her back sent shots of pain throughout her being. Long, dark brown strands of hair concealed her eyes as they wavered in a sudden breeze. She then forced her body against the tree behind her, feeling another sudden rush of pain spreading upwards. Blood trickled a bit through small indents on the tree, yet she was still conscious enough to keep her gazy on it...

((OOC: Do NOT post anything about how Nayumi responds to this post after posting,

Ex. Kail felt the cold gaze of Nayumi upon him.
Acceptable. Kail felt the cold gaze coming from Nayumi, but could not figure out what exactly she was looking at.

because what you think she is looking at may not be the true thing she is truly looking at because that could be truly anything...hehe...lots of "truly"'s
...))

Removing his hand from within the belly, Kail successfully retrieved some artifact indeed. Kails hand was dripping with stomach acid, eating away at the outside of the birds flesh and places where it dripped. Yet Kails demon hand was not hurt, though his brown cloak sleeve was being eaten by the acid. Kail gave his arm one hard thrust down to try and fling the stomach acid off. The artifact seemed unfazed by the acid.

“hmmm, magical?” Kail questioned to himself, “probably the bird could regenerate, to be sure we’d need an expert.”

“what is she staring at?” grunted Zaick.

Kail looked up from the artifact, his eyes met where Nayumi rested on a tree. Still standing by the fallen bird Kail was unable to make out her expressions. Using his free hand Kail pulled up his hood and started toward Nayumi.

((hows that? ))

Reamy could only watch as the three fight the giant bird for if she leave the two unconscious guys alone, they might get attacked too. She watched as the man took out an artifact from the bird's stomach but just stopped with that. Reamy then started running towards the bird.

"Move!" She shouted to the man as she threw her hammer to his direction. The bird suddenly opened its eyes and lunged at the man. Luckily, the hammer hitted and crushed the bird's face before even it's claws made contact to the man's back.

"Ahh... I thought you guys know how to kill these things..." Reamy sighed. "After taking out the artifact from a bird demon, it'll still have one more life." She continued. Reamy notices Nayumi's wounds and took out a bottle with green liquid inside.

"Here, pour this on your wounds. It doesn't heal wounds but it will ease the pain for awhile until we find a safe place to stay..."

((OOC: Welcome back to me on this RP :P

Claymore has half human, half demon characters))

Also, my name is Lokuri, not Iokuri, but I forgot to capilize the "L," so it appears to look like "lokuri," like an "I" but slightly different. ))

Nayumi watched as Reamy came forth to give her the greenish liquid. Before she could raise her hand, Nayumi felt her lips fling open.

"It is here," Nayumi muttered under her breath.

All of a sudden, the ground started to shake as the barely lively trees wavered a bit. The sound of a huge beast was approaching, followed by a tremendous roar. Then out of the bushes appeared four glowing, light yellow eyes, like the moon in the sky. There were two eyes on each side of the creatures head, the second diagonal from the first was a bit smaller, and they were all almond shaped. Sharp, blood red claws stabbed the earth, a foul odor escaping from its darkened moth, aside from extremely yellow, scattered teeth and a bizarre, purple tongue. The body of the demonic beast was entangled within tree branches, which twisted around it like brown snakes.

"I will come for all you humans when the sun is at its darkest hour," The bizarre being announced, nearly killing all plant life with its breathe. "As for my name, I am known by my prey as the 'Demon of Death.' I hope all of you will make a fine meal, but if not, your screams will be music to my ears."

The Demon of Death then vanished from sight, but the stench and indent of where it was last gazing down on everyone was still present. Nayumi could only stare in horror, completely unaware of Kail's facial features. Everything was silent for a bit, before Nayumi moaned a bit. Her eyes travelled downwards, concealed by compressed eyelids as she remembered the pain in her back. Nayumi tried to reach for the healing liquid, which had fallen out of her grasp when the Demon of Death arrived, but once again her vision was getting blurry. Scanning the horizon, she noticed the sky was sinking into a sunset.

"I will come for all you humans when the sun is at its darkest hour," Nayumi repeated in her head again. "After sunset? No, it has to be...midnight."

((OOC: Myahahah, more fighting >_< no no, we get a while to rest, but I am afraid of this RP losing its luster :O ))

When all seemed to finally calm down Kail heard a steer behind him.

“Behind you!” cautioned Zaick.

Acting on instinct Kail reached into his cloak, with his free hand, for a dagger. Then something Kail and Zaick were not relying on intervened. A large hammer found its way into the birds’ skull, killing it for the last time.

"Ahh... I thought you guys know how to kill these things..." Reamy sighed. "After taking out the artifact from a bird demon, it'll still have one more life."

Kail turned to meet his savior and was about to give thanks but before he could the ground began to shake! A loud roar followed, before Kail had time to make accusations if it was an earthquake. Kail diverted all his attention to the trees because that seemed to be where the commotion was approaching from. The stench almost overpowered Kail but seemed to overcome it enough, though if a battle did break out kail would have a hard time focusing.

"I will come for all you humans when the sun is at its darkest hour," The bizarre being announced, nearly killing all plant life with its breathe. "As for my name, I am known by my prey as the 'Demon of Death.' I hope all of you will make a fine meal, but if not, your screams will be music to my ears."

With that the Death Demon left. Leaving Kail a little worried, there seemed to be alot of demon activity.

“You know him?” Kail said to himself.
“I don’t know every demon that that ever lived you know,” Zaick replied harshly, “I lived in the very bowels of hell! This is a surface demon…he couldn’t be all that powerful or I would have heard of him.”

Still Kail was uneasy. There was something about that demon, could it really just be a demon. With questions arising and battle scenarios all going through his head Kail hurried back to the party members that remained conscious. Hopefully they had a plan.

((we need the creator back so we can move on the story! ))
