under the blue moon (1x1)

[Jump.Jump.Fall.]

Troy's ears twitched slightly, hearing something in the distance. He growled under his breath and ignored the sound, closing his eyes and curling up into a taut ball.

Pandora dropped to her hands and knees, running her hands over the ground as she searched for her glasses. "Uh... I can't believe I dropped my glasses..." she grumbled under her breath, her hands bumping against carcasses of dead insects.

"Don't allow them to bite you. We still are not definate on the effects of an unattended bite." Skye warned, lifting his right hand as if to be asking some imaginary person in front of him for their hand. It was a simple movement. He raised his wrist, then quickly jolted it towards the ground. Ten lances shot from the ground around him and his two temporary companions. He then put his fingers to his mouth and whistled sharply. "Remain calm. If any of these creatures come through, show them no mercy." Skye said emotionlessly. The lances spun around them. They were fast enough to just seem to blend any of the bugs that came too close.

Knight rolled his eyes and looked from side to side. He then picked up a pair of glasses just by some brush that didn't look like anyone tended to it for years. "Here." Knight said, stopping Pandora and holding one of her shoulders while slipping the glasses onto her. "Better?" He smiled and chuckled lightly.

[Jump.Jump.Fall.]

Pandora tensed and drew in a deep breath, clenching her teeth when Knight touched her. She lightly touched the glasses that now sat on the bridge of her nose, letting out a sigh of relief. Pandora's eyelids parted, her unusual eyes glowing faintly. She looked up at Knight, wondering if he could see her eyes from his distance. The pupils of Pandora's eyes were shaped in the form of a cross, while the rest of her eye were a stunning deep green color with sea blue tinges around the corners of her eye.
"Thank you..." Pandora said softly, looking up at Knight, the boy was taller than her by a few inches. She calmed her muscles and then lightly bit down into her lower lip, her sharp white teeth piercing her lip slightly.

Samantha nodded and transformed back into a wolf. Nyx nodded and transformed as well keeping his ground in front of Samantha.

[Mayiamaru]

Knight smiled kindly and laughed a bit, dropping his left hand on Pandora's head with his right hand shoved into his jean pocket. "Don't mention it. Now, these bugs kind of scattered. Wanna figure out why or are you afraid about going blind on the way?" He said, his kind smile turning devious midway throughout his little monologue.

Skye had wind picking up around him, although there didn't seem to even be a breeze this night. It was still, but Skye's cloak and hair were swirling while dust circled and spread arounf his feet. Soon, a snowy, white wolf with a silver chain and a blue crystal hanging onf that chain jumped over the bugs, timing to stop in front of Skye's little cage. Skye shifted his feet into a different positions then nodded. "Do as you wish. Just do not allow anything to bite you." Skye said in a calm tone, although it was still loud. His voice flowed over the wind, canceling out the sound for the most part.

[Jump.Jump.Fall.]

Pandora raised an eyebrow at Knight, folding her arms over her chest. "I can see perfectly fine without my glasses..." she stated, rolling her eyes slightly. "And sure... I'll go along." Pandora said softly and then let her arms drop to her sides again, her eyes focused on Knight.

[Samantha5696]

Samantha had to shift around to see the white wolf because Nyx was in her way. She wondered about this wolf but it seemed to be on their side. She laughed to herself at being that clue-less if even for a moment. Duh the wolf's on our side, it obviously knows Skye. Samantha thought to herself. Nyx just kept his eyes on the bugs.

[Mayiamaru]

Knight lifted his hand from Pandora's head and nodded. "Then c'mon." He said lightly, turning on his heels and dashing along the ground. He was fast, just enough so to be able to keep up with a bicycle, but still slower than a small car.

Lumora was flying over the forest shrine, watching the fight. She couldn't commit any good havoc like this. She needed to find a victom, one far away from Skye. So she retreated to the school. Maybe, if she could fake being the sweet, sickening Mayia that she was trapped in, maybe she could get Troy to give her some blood do she could stay free for another day. She hated having to lay dorment in this weak girl. She was also disappointed in herself for being so weak as to let Mayia be the one to trap her. Once at the school, she slipped into the main office through the window and searched for that boy. It may have been a mistake to have gotten him in trouble. Maybe she could fool him.

Skye whistled with his teeth and Rioku lowered himself, wind forming around him as it was with Skye. In a flash, the lance vanished and Skye and Rioku were beating off bugs with ease. This was like some kind of power mode. A ring of dust blew from underneath them, but as time passed, the rings would slowly get weaker and Skye and Rioku would slow slightly.

[Samantha5696]

Samantha wanted to join in the fight so she jumped on Nyx and leaped into battle. Nyx was at her side in a moment and he killed the bugs in her blind spots while she killed the bugs in his blind spots. That way neither would get bit.

[Jump.Jump.Fall.]

Pandora's eyes narrowed mischievously and a crooked grin spread across her pale lips, turning and running after Knight. She ran up beside Knight, keeping pace with him easily. Pandora was slender and her legs were long; she had an athletic, but still curvy build, she was made for speed. She glanced at Knight out of the corner of her eye, the lenses of her glasses gleaming in the light that fell from the heavens.

Troy sat in the hallway quietly, his back propped up against the wall and his arms folded heavily over his chest. His eyelids were sealed shut and his hair was draping down over his closed eyes, his teeth tightly clenched together and a low growl rumbling through the back of his throat.
