The female flushed lightly at Geil's words, but she wasn't overly bothered by the truth of the remark. Something niggled at the back of her mind again, but she pushed it away instead, unwilling to look at it just then.
The dragon inclined his head lightly to the tsume before turning his attention to the gryvern. "Natalya, I would not have expected you here."
The Healer turned to regard the being with dark eyes, "You have the advantage of me," she said quietly. "I do not know you."
"We were introduced but once. I am Terein Laez. You are Natalya, the Healer who was with Mozer when he dealt with. . . that problem."
She narrowed her eyes at him; how did he know about this. "You are very knowledgable."
"I listen wherever I go. And to warnings."
Her curled ears went back swiftly and her feathers twitched.

Geil was interested by this dragon, it knew her but she didn't know him... He wondered what the realm where she came from was like, generally where he was from if you knew about someone they probably knew about you. Obviously it was not the case at her home.
He got up all the way, and stretched a little bit... He listened to warnings? Of course he listened to warnings, this world was filled with Evil and murderous creatures... Like the few Ikarien dragons that came and terrorrized people occasionally, or those dark hued tsumes who had an affinity with darkness and fire. None of which were here. [/b] "I'm Geil, it's..." He paused and furrowed his brow slightly, and glanced over at Natalya... This person was giving off very strange vibes... And his appearance was so odd, could he be a Poison tail or something?[/b] He looked back over at the other dragon and shook his head, as if trying to clear his thoughts. "It's nice to meet you."
Geil was getting a bad feeling all of the sudden, like he was forgetting something... Or that maybe it'd be best to get moving again soon... Such a pity though, he liked it here.

Natalya felt herself tensing again as she tried to place Terein. Shouldn't she remember him? Of course, if it had been whilst she was busy with something else. . . but they hadn't been greatly busy as of late, surely she'd remember this rainbow-hued dragon. Right?
She rose, standing beside and slightly behind Geil instinctively, watching as Terein's eyes narrowed again for some reason before he lowered his voice, ignoring the tsume for a moment. "Natalya, I think you need to come home. The others will be looking for you."
The Earth leaned into Geil, as suspicions flared through her mind. "I. . ." she shook her head and looked away from him.
Terein turned to look at Geil then, dark eyes contemplative. "Looks like you caught her." He had no intention of trying to fight the tsume, not that Geil looked much like a fighter. Since neither of them were, it would be a battle of wills and words and he didn't often practice. Geil, he had a suspicion, was very talented in such a thing.

Geil leaned softly leaned against Natalya as well, rubbing nuzzling her slightly before responding to Tereins insinuation. "I'd say she caught me..." He said with a small chuckle, it was obvious that Terein was disturbing him... If she could pick up bad vibes... Then obviously Geil was picking up something very bad from him[/b] Geil wasn't going to let himself seem completely unconfident though and quickly made sure to hide the fact that he was disturbed by this person...
Well, he pretended to anyways... He wasn't incredibly disturbed, he just exaggerated it abit so that he'd seem a bit more... Like the good guy in this situation, why rely simply on her current feelings? It was easy to stay ahead if he continued to play this game.

"I'm sure that's how it appears," Terein said quietly. He tried to decide wot his best course of action would be. Natalya shifted uneasily behind Geil. He didn't understand her unease around him and it was hard to know how to proceed.
Natalya arched her neck slightly to speak softly to Geil, "I think we should go." She seemed more and more uneasy.
"Natalya," Terein called to her again and the gryvern started against the tsume. "At least go and tell Mozer wot's going."
"Geil, I want to go." For some reason she couldn't name, she was unwilling to go without him. But the tsume seemed rather uncomfortable, though he was hiding it better than she, and as any sort of empath that had a great deal to say.
"Don't bother yourselves," the dragon said abruptly. "It's obvious I'm wasting my time here." He inclined his head to them suddenly. "I wish you luck." He turned, looking back over his shoulder for a moment. "Don't hurt her; they're very protective of their own." With that, he snapped out his dual set of wings and leapt skyward again.

Geil simply ignored what he said for the most part, it was easier and usually less damaging to his case than attempting to deny it. He was so very glad that this dragon, as many dragons tended to be... Was not very good at attempting to prove his point without violence, especially to someone who didn't want to hear the truth.
"Don't worry, we'll go." He said as he eyed Terein cautiously, waiting for him to fly off before starting to turn away, going in the opposite direction atleast to begin with, of course waiting for her to come with... Although seeming a bit anxious.
"That creature... It was across the river, yet something about it's emotions were very disturbing..." He ran his fingers through his hair and sighed, "I think it's going to come back with reinforcements..." He of course, didn't know whether it planned on coming back but got the distinct impression that it might. And if it did then he might have to fight, or run... Not the preffered course of action...

Natalya nodded, still uneasy because of the encounter. "Do you think he really does know Mozer?" she asked quietly. And that thought led to others. Wot if he really was a Poisontail? It didn't happen often, but they could be born very pleasing to the eye. If he did know Mozer, it could be in a distinctly unpleasant way. "Do you think Mozer is alright?" Concern tightened her voice.
Terein flew a short distance then blinked out from this world to return to Hawkings Crest; now if only he could actually find Mozer in a timely manner.

Geil nuzzled her as they walked, sighing slightly he shrugged "I don't know, I actually only know about mozer because you keep mentioning him... If he's an important gryvern then it's possible that Thing just knew the name and was trying to use it to..." He furrowed his brow again and glanced up at her. "Coax you into a sense of security... Who knows where the portal would have gone if you tried to leave just then." He said with a slight growl, the growl was actually kind of cute rather than menacing because it sounded like he did not practice it nearly often enough...
After alittle while he changed direction and started heading towards a area that appeared to have grown into a rather dense forest.

Geil's words helped her relax a little. The tsume was right; Mozer was becoming well-known. It would be easy to pick up his name and try to lure out the gryvern. Of course, it didn't answer why he knew her name. She shuddered slightly, pressing gently against him again, as though she could draw his confidence to herself.
It didn't occur to her to go anywhere but with him. She followed his lead without question. Though her eyes scanned the forest around them, her mind was on the strange meeting and that strange dragon, if he was a dragon.

He sighed and managed to relax all the way once more, or atleast show that he was all relaxed, there were several pops when muscles that had been tense returned to their previous state... Strangley enough, he did seem to give off a bit of confidence when she leaned against him, probably because he always seemed so calm and collected himself so quickly.
As the forest grew thicker he glanced around occasionally too, nuzzling her before speaking again "Do you mind caves?" He asked softly, as he held his head against her side, not actually taking it away after he nuzzled her, untill a few moments later.

(( totally not pg13. . . xD; )) Natalya stretched languidly in the water, feeling sore in strange places, but, nevertheless, she felt content. Her gaze would often slip back to Geil and she felt a swift stab of unease. The gryvern paddled closer curiously, tilting her head to the side. She watched him for a long moment, then rose from the water, letting it run from her hide in a swift stream. She waited until most of it was gone before she shook and moved closer to the tsume. She stretched out her neck to run her muzzle along his neck again and asked softly, "Wot are you thinking about so intently?" Her feathers flicked in a sudden movement of agitation. (((Rastko: What?! What?! *bristle bristle* (*^#$#*@ you, Geil!!! How dare you impugn a lady's honor that way?!? You loathesome cad!! My seconds will be calling upon you!!
Dawby: *psst* Rastko, you don't have any seconds.
Rastko: *looks around desperately*
Kalina: Don't look at me!! Thal sounds scary. I'm not going near anything associated with him.
Rastko: *bristle bristle*
:-D)))

"I used to live in a cave," Natalya replied easily. "Now I have a glen, but in our Home Reality it wasn't safe to sleep out in the open." The feel of his head pressed against her helped recall her distant thoughts and she finally actually looked around them. "Where are we going to?" she sounded as she felt, merely curious.
(( hehe we started a fight! xD;;; or. . almost. . . .
mozer: sorry, rastko, i'm not going near him on an errand to tick him off. . . <<;;; ))

"I prefer the privacy that caves provide." he said with a small shrug, before prancing forward a little bit, moving somewhat like a raptor... Leaning forward, but still up on two legs, then he turned around so he was facing her rather than at her side. "I have a few caves scattered around that I stay at... I thought that maybe we could hide out at one for a little while." He offered with a smile, looking back at her before tilting his head. "Of course that was just a thought..." He said smoothily, waiting for her to come back up close to him before hugging her once more, leaning his head against hers. "Is there anywhere you had in mind?" The question made it seem like he was more than willing to do anything she wanted to do... He very much doubted with the state she was in that she'd consider anything other than what he had suggested though.
