For Solodin ( Closed)

[DarksideQueen18]

Donatello & Spencer | Aboveworld

Jeezus, frack, lord of Solodin....Donnie cursed as he surfaced from the depths of the body of water that surrounded the waterfall. It'd been a long day and he was awfully cranky. Still, he and Spencer had obtained a lot of what they'd need to make a pretty penny in Solodin. As he wearily walked towards his large backpack stationed dutifully on the bank of the water, he carefully reached into a knapsack for various colored gems and placed them into the larger backpack. Already the backpack was filled with plenty of gems but Don didn't want to have to come up here anytime soon so he always tried to fill the backpack with as much gems as possible. With his powers, this job was easy but it just required a lot of work that Donnwasnt quite cut out for. He Sighed heavily when he placed the last gem, a quartz, and zipped up the backpack. He took a long swig of water before plopping himself onto the ground and waiting for Spencer to finish scavenging for any cool human items that may have ended up lost in the river and eventually have been deposited here at the waterfall.
When Spencer did surface with her own knapsack full of who knows what, Don didn't bother to ask what spencer had scored for he was already tired and ready to head back home. Analytical eyes turned to the forest nearby, and he studied how the sun filtered through the trees beautifully as it set. He clicked his tongue, irritable and envious that the Howlers had such a world that should rightfully belong to them.
"I need coffee" he mumbled miserably.

•••[♥ Prince Soren] [Quell; Purple/Blue] [Location: The waterfall, forest] [Tags: Basil]
Soren nodded, sticking close to his sister as they surveyed the area. He was quiet in thought, mentally mapping out the area. The stronger the presence of smoke became, the harder of a time he had relaxing, but he tried to stay focused. He looked over the river briefly and stared off in the direction of the fire for a long moment, but when Basil spoke, his attention was drawn back over to her. He tilted his head, holding his chin, and nodded slightly at her idea. "That would work. Though the flames could jump over the boundary once it's set up... it'd slow it down, at least." He took in a small breath, opening his wings and looking to them. He stretched them out, raising them a bit. "Getting water there won't be a problem- we just need something to carry it in. Though it'd naturally start dying out once it can't burn anything else, we shouldn't really rely on the idea of it not jumping..." He looked back off towards the waterfall. "It's probably possible to find something that could be hollowed out or something that'd... er..." He trailed off, realising now that the scene wasn't wholly the same. He was pretty sure he saw some others at the waterfall now- he pulled his wings in close, suddenly aware that they were rather obvious if he held them open. He scrunched his eyebrows and narrowed his eyes, feeling he knew the two that were at the waterfall, but without getting closer he couldn't be confident. "They... weren't there before," he commented. Though it was certainly pointing out the obvious, his thoughts ended up stopped in their tracks. "What- What are they... doing here..?"

Hawthorne gave a warm laugh, "I guess it will be a surprise. But, I'm sure they'll love you" He said confidently. Hawthorne smiled, looking back at her. His hazel eyes sparkled amusedly. Something about Arkady brought out a different side to the grumpy soldier. As the two of them walked, Hawthorne noticed the Quell giving Arkady dirty looks. He had never considered what it was like to be frowned upon. Being a Royal and a distinguished fighter, Hawthorne rarely was treated disrespectfully. He frowned deeply, debating on what he could do about it. " Come on, Arkady" Hawthorne said, offering his arm to her in a gentlemanly way, " The palace isn't to far away. " As he offered his arm to her he glanced darkly at the nearby Quell, as if daring them to say something about it. The tall, muscular soldier could be intimidating when he was angry.

Arkady hesitated before taking Hawthorne's arm and looping her own around his. The person who had locked her up was now walking down the street with her, arm in arm. It was complicated, but in a good way. She would much rather be out walking on the streets than spending her night in that cell. She had been so close to having a breakdown and trying to beat down the door before Hawthorne had come and gotten her. Arkady kept her chin up and her eyes set on the road before her. "Be honest with me. Do I have to have you with me at all times for my own safety or for others?" She didn't know whether or not he expected her to hurt someone while he wasn't around or if someone would hurt her. Arkady wouldn't be surprised if it was the first. He was the protector of the city after all and she… she was a thief and fugitive.

Oliver | Quell | Prince | Tagged; Mentioned Hawthrone & Arkady

Nothing really happened in Solodin without anyone knowing so it wasn't surprising when Oliver found some friend or familiar face sharing news or rumors. What was surprising this time was the news itself. When he heard that Hawthrone and the so-called prisoner made another appearance in the better part of Solodin, he'd dropped the Crispy piece of bacon that he'd planned to set in his mouth. Surely it was a mistake and he tried laughing it off but even his friends whom he'd been hanging with was pushing for answers. "Okay okay" he huffed, "Jeez you all are so nosy. Just let me eat my breakfast for dinner and then I'll go attack Hawthrone for answers" Ollie had declared, slipping some buttery toast into his mouth. In reality, he needed time to think. Perhaps Hawthrone was just taking the prisoner to see the King? But with it being so late why couldn't he just wait till morning? He sighed, why couldn't the news have been that hawthrone finally got a girlfriend or something positive. Now that would've been way more surprising than the news he'd just received.

Once again, Hawthorne was surprised by Arkady's bluntness. Though, he admired her honesty. " Well..." Hawthorne said, trying to choose his words carefully," To be completely honest, a bit of both.". He hesitated, looking up at the beautiful sky." I don't believe for a second that you would blatantly attack Quell for no reason. But Solodin's council doesn't feel the same way. Our laws state that any person that commits a minor crime can be released if they are kept either under house arrest or are with a guard at all times." Hawthorne said honestly," But, since you're half Howler..... I'd feel much better about your safety if you had a guard anyway. The war with the Howlers makes Solodin a dangerous place for Mixes like yourself." The captain fell quiet as they neared the palace." I don't mean to sound rude... but I've never really considered what it was like for mixes living here in Solodin. There aren't very many, but... I know it must be hard. We Quell.... can be very cruel to people different than we are." He said quietly. To be completely honest, this whole day had been.... a bit overwhelming for Hawthorne. He had realized a lot of things today thanks to Arkady. The first and most important was that he was slowly beginning to learn to like mixes. It didn't matter what a person was... right? Hawthorne actually enjoyed Arkady's company more than many Quell he knew. She always challenged him and was brutally honest sometimes. Arkady also didn't treat him differently because of his rank. Hawthorne liked those things about her. Though, their friendship was a rather odd one. This morning they had been enemies, but now they were walking together watching Solodin's sun set. Hawthorne's stomach rumbled loudly, snapping him out of his deep thoughts. He was suddenly reminded he hadn't eaten all day; this morning speaking to Donnie had stopped him from getting breakfast and he had given his lunch to Arkady. Hawthorne chuckled a bit to himself," Come on, lets hurry and have dinner. Maybe I can introduce you to my family at the dinner table, if we're not to late?" He offered.

Basil was quieter than normal as they surveyed the area. She nervously bit her lip, listening carefully to Soren. He was probably right about setting up boundaries and letting the fire die out. " True... there is the possibility of it jumping the boundary..." She nodded, thoughtfully. Basil didn't know very much about fighting fires, though (not surprisingly) she had read about it. The green haired Quell tugged her bangs slightly," I know it's a crazy idea, but maybe I could... " Basil fell quiet, seeing Donnie and Spencer. " Oh no..." She said, her eyes widening a bit. " What are they doing out here? Did they follow us? What if the catch us?!" She whispered instinctively. She grabbed his shirt sleeve, pulling him a bit closer to her and the forest. Basil looked up at Soren as if he knew the answer.

Juniper was still unconscious, his head lolled gently on Ash's shoulder. Though, he breathed a bit easier as Ash carried him away from the fire and the smoke cleared. It was easy to see that the flames and smoke had done a lot of damage. Juniper had several bad burns on his arms, back and chest. Worse though, was the noxious smoke that had hurt his lungs. It made him wheeze with every painful breath he took.

While they walked, Aurora examined the burns on Juniper. She was no medic, but she could tell that they were serious. The air became slightly easier to breathe in as they got farther away from the fire and closer to the river. Their walk was silent, no one saying a word. She figured no one wanted to speak about what had happened to Ash and the idea that anyone one of them could die while they were still in the danger zone. Juniper's heart beat was the only reassurance to Aurora that he was still alive. She glanced over at Ash's body. Leonardo was carrying her through the woods, and she could of sworn she saw her chest move. No, it's just my eyes playing tricks on me. It's just her shirt being ruffled. Aurora shook her head slightly and continued walking. The glistening water began to come into view, and she breathed out a sigh of relief.

Arkady tightened her grip on Hawthorne's arm as he mentioned his family. Her expression turned blank and her legs felt like lead. She nodded slightly and forced herself to keep on walking. "I'm… very excited to meet your family." In all honesty though, she was far from it. Even her voice sounded false and betrayed what she really felt. Arkady would be surprised if they welcomed her with open arms. Never in her life had something like that happened to her, nothing like this. Nobody could have ever predicted she would be walking with Hawthorne down the streets of Solodin. The thought was to absurd, but here she was, doing what no one would have ever dared to think. At the mention of dinner though, she felt the returning nag of hunger. Even though she had eaten only a couple of hours ago, she had to feed a wolf and a human.

Ash's clothes were riddled with holes from the fire and sparks that flew down upon her. Her whole body hurt, as if she had been slashed with a knife. Burns were along her arms and legs and chest, though thankfully not on her back. Juniper and his jacket had protected that part of her. Her lungs felt like they were caving in, and her breathing was heavy. Ash's racing heart had slowed down as they got farther away from the deadly fire. Her arm fell from where it rested on her chest and hanged by her side.

Hawthorne noticed Arkady tighten her grip on his arm. He looked down at her a bit concerned, " Really...? You sound as if I'm marching you to the gallows" He said, in an unintentionally comical way. " I may be a bit thick sometimes, but I know something's wrong." Hawthorne nudged her slightly, "If you're worried about my family, don't be. I know they'll be happy to let you stay. " He said looking up at the palace, " And if they don't, we'll figure something out, okay? I promise, you won't have to sleep on the streets. If all else fails, I have friends you can stay with. " He said matter-of-factly. Hawthorne knocked on the door to the palace, and a doorman opened both of the huge, gilded doors. " Good evening, sir" The doorman said politely, but hesitated as he saw Arkady, " And Good evening madam" He said, obviously a bit surprised. Hawthorne never brought people to the palace, much less peasants like Arkady. Hawthorne gave a friendly nod to the doorman, as he walked in with Arkady. The inside of the palace was lavish and very well decorated. It seemed everything was glided and very, very expensive.
