(gods you guys/girls get a lot done in one day)<br/><br/>"this is all wrong"  *i said to myself a moment before Arkain began to show signs of pain, it was only a split second later that that same pain began to leach its way into my own body , my own latent empathic ability forcing my body to share part of the agony that Arkain was feeling*<br/><br/>"dear god, what the hell did they do to Arkain"  i wanted to scream at them but my muscles had all clenched and i found myself hitting the ground hard enough for the air to be pushed out of my chest before i lashed out and began to lash out the ground and trees in a frenzy, doing anything to stop the pain i dug my claws into the ground and started to draw on my powers to quell the screaming in my head*<br/><br/>*my teeth arched and my gums bled as i ground my jaws together waiting for the pain to a bait and watching as the grass that was below my face started to turn yellow ....then brown and black before it crumbled into powder, the ring of dying flora spread out about me as i drew life force from everything nearby, my over tensed body twitched as dead black leaves dropped from the branches above me and touch my fur*<br/><br/>*the ending to the ordeal came as i heard the trunk of the tree near me split asunder and the acrid scent and taste of rotting wood filled mouth and nose as i dragged in a shaky breath and pushed it out quickly as my lungs burned from the strained muscles of my chest*<br/><br/>*i could barely think as i waited fro my body to take in the last little bits of life in range of my sprawled form, my skin tingled stung as i stood wobbly to my feet and trying to only concentrate on taking in one breath after another, my eyesight was damaged and my vision tinted red from what i figured was burst blood vessels.*<br/><br/>*lifting my head to look at where Arkain had been i growled deep in my throat, my hackles rising as i looked upon the group of dragons gathered around the fallen form of the lizard, they looked as if they had backed the lizard up against the tree and hurt him more while he was in pain, there was rope bundles upon the ground and one of the   new comers, a dragon that had not been there before had his paw pressed upon Arkains chest while the other gripped his arm*<br/><br/>*my sudden rage was replaced by something far worse, a cold calculating hatred filling me as i lowered my back legs into a crouch and the fur around about my arms, chest and legs begins to get darker in places until ribbons of black fur show through the normal brown and silver fur above it*<br/><br/>On the other side of the clearing where the dragons and Arkain are gathered a wall of sound shakes the leaves and buffets everyone there as i launch myself across ground and vanish from sight before i reappear half a foot from the one with his paw on Arkains chest and slam him against the tree with my right paw about his neck and my claws extended  powerfully from the tips of my digits  into the trunk before they burst cleanly through the other side of the tree.<br/><br/>*spittle flecking from my jaws as i snap them at the face of the one that i hold i growl and with my voice a harsh whisper say     "what did you do to him, what kind of beasts attack those that offer the hand of welcome"<br/><br/>*turning my head to the dragon who had had his claws about Arkains arm i say "what kind of creature asks to speak with my friend in private and in peace while secretly keeping others of there kind hidden from sight like this one" i turn my head to indicate the new and unfamiliar dragon who had appeared after Arkain had collapsed before turning back towards illidan and spreading my jaws in a rictus like grin  and saying  "speak truthfully and quickly or you shall find this ones blood washing over you a moment before your own stains the grass"<br/><br/><br/>(ouch my fingers hurt, i hope you enjoyed my over and insane protectiveness of Arkain, but me and him have shared a rather imaginative experience together, besides i really don't like seeing anyone that i like being hurt, as to my character behavior, although he is a  cute as can be most times, this is how he would react since he was a dog soldier on another world, again i hope you liked it and that,    some of you...not pointing fingers will give people chance to reply<img alt=";)" src="./images/smilies/wink.gif" title="Wink"/>)
