*The Aasimar Essme and Tiefling Kamors began to tumble, their clothes being covered in a hot sand. It was midday, so the sun was at it's highest point in the sky. Eventually, the two came to a halt at the bottom of a sandy dune, Kameros now on top of Essme.*

Essme's screams echoed off into the void with pure fear as she began free falling into nothingness. With Kamors still in her grasp, she instinctively held onto him tighter; but not only to not let him get away... But out of fear. Not knowing where this was going, she shut her eyes tight as the pair tangled down below.

Landing with a soft **Thud**- a low, long groan moaned out of the paladin. She slowly opened her eyes to be greeted by the blinding sun, her vision blurred. But as she laid there in the sunken sand, she felt a weight resting ontop of her.

"Hm... N.."

Essme glanced down painfully to see that damned teifling ontop of her. She quickly shoved him off, shaking the sand from her large wings that laid outstretched on the ground. With fire still present in her eyes, Essme quickly sat up and pointed her finger at the man. Her words stuttering with just how furious she was at him.

"....**You**... Where *ARE* We?! What did you do?!"

The Angel exclaimed, darting her head around to find nothing but miles of sand dunes. That angered expression on her face slowly melted, showing signs of panic knowing this wasn't anywhere close to her home town. And Pim... Poor Pim was gone.

Kameros groaned and rolled over as he was thrown off of Essme, landing with a thud. He then suddenly let out a scream of pain as he rolled over once more, getting up onto his knees and gripping his wrist in pain. Upon looking down at his hand, it was scorched, almost as if his spell blew back into his hand. He began to shudder, clearly in heavy pain as he gripped and hugged his hand to him. Kameros didn't even hear what Essme shouted at him, seeing as he was so focused on his hand. He looked up and around and cursed under his breath as he sucked air up in through gritted teeth.

"G.. Goddamn it, paladin! This is YOUR fault. CALA!"

As Kameros called out the name Cala, a red haze began to form in front of Kameros as a wolf with large horns emerged from it. It snarled, clearly knowing it's master was in pain or danger. It then laid it's eyes on Essme and let out a low growl, more of a warning than anything. It eyes Kameros before taking up a defensive position between the aasimar and Kam.

"Keep that dim-witted angel FREAK away from me."

Kameros slowly began to stand as he cradled his hand, and slowly he began to wield a bright yellow magic in his unscorched hand.

"Freak? *Freak*?!"

Essme growled, shifting in the sand, she did her best to stand up gracefully; her wings fluttering around to keep her balance. At the sight of the teiflings wolf she saw this as a full blow sign of disrespect. Scoffing and rolling her eyes, the Angel crossed her arms and rested on one hip.

"Oh come on, **You** Were the one who ran away from *Law enforcement.* You are in the wrong here. Had you have not run... Maybe we wouldn't *Be* In this mess.
Salem, come on boy."

Suddenly, sparks of purple and black electricity formed beside the paladin, and out jumped a large paguar, its roar reverberating the sand beneath them. Salem had two states; one of blue and purple. The dark lighting stripes across its silk black body showed aggression, seeing as Salem was sizing up the teifling and its wolf. But Essme leaned down and stroked its back, trying to calm him down.

"I need you to go back to Findara buddy, go find Pim and get some help. Yeah?"

Salem's growl lowered into a deep coo, not taking its eyes leaving the strangers in front of him. But upon his masters request, the animal headed off in the direction of the sun and ￼ dissolved back into that fog of lightning. 

Essme slowly turned her attention back to the man, noticing his injured hand. She didn't feel bad by any means, this *Was* His own doing. But she didn't understand the need for his anger. ￼the Angel tucked in her wings, and after a million fuzzy thoughts she decided against fighting him for a multitude of reasons. If the brawled here in the middle of the desert... Well, no one would make it out alive. 


"I have a name, you know." She started, trying to keep the irritation out of her voice. "It's Essme. And I assume you have one too, so why not start there."
Julio
Kameros rolled his eyes and watched as a Paguar ran past him. He paid it no mind however, and continued to warp and wrap his burned hand in the yellow light from his other. Around five minutes passed and Kameros slowly began to stand. He turned to face Essme and as he turned he removed the hood from his head, revealing his horns once more. Kameros glared at Essme before he began to trudge through the sand.

"The day I tell you my name is the day you stop me, paladin."

Kameros continued to trudge through the sand, and Cala the fire wolf walked behind him, keeping the distance between Essme and her master. Kameros began to mutter things to himself as he walked, but aside from what he said before he began walking, he ignored Essme completely. The tiefling began to clumsily climb up the sand dune, occasionally slipping but he managed to get up to the top. He glanced around now on a bit of a perch before glancing over his shoulder at Essme.

"I'm going to collect my bounty, paladin. Leave me the hell alone. If you're a guard of Findara, you are way out of your jurisdiction anyways, so fly home birdy."

With that, Kameros continued on, his fire wolf eventually making it's way ahead of him to check for dangers.
