After a long talk with Jotie, Sithe adventured torwards the medow. It was a good distance away, but the fragrance was great and he enjoyed every smell from all kinds of flowers. He was told by his mother that he was born in a rose, so his favorite flower are roses. He flew and landed on the rose bud and then jumped onto the rose that was fully blooming and relaxed on there.
"Aah... so beautiful and it smells good." He noticed that this was surrounded by black roses, but it didn't matter. He relaxed a bit and closed his eyes.

Lilis was poking around in the darkness, on her way into town. She was hungry again and needed to feed. But she was feeling a little playful about feeding this night. Black roses were always associated with being turned into a vampire, so Lilis was just going to collect a few to leave lying around. She pulled a dagger from one of her various sheaths and cut a few. When she heard someone talking she immediately dropped into a crouch. A vampire getting caught with black roses in hand wasn't a good idea, though it would have been fun for Lilis to throttle someone. Not hearing the voice again, Lilis stood up and walked easily among the rose. None of her clothes snagging on the dagger-like thorns.

Sithe lifted his head and looked around tiredly. "Sheesh... Can't sleep." He looked at few of the black roses and noticed someone standing there. He was a bit curious and he flew upwards and flew in a little closer. Usually faries are shy, but he wasn't. "Hello there! Who are you?" He said, flying right around behind her.

Lilis whirled around, dropping into another crouch. Her dagger was once again in her hand. She spotted the fairy rather easily and quirked an eyebrow at him. Lilis stood up slowly, but kept her dagger in her hand and made no bones about the fact that she was carrying black roses.
"Lilis, Zuki's bodyguard. You?" Lilis replied tersely, watching the fairy and her surroundings closely.

Sithe smirked. "I am Sithe. A fairy bodyguard of Jotie's." He said his title boldly. He then yawned and stretched himself. He then wondered, "Are you a vampire like the kingdom of Crysos? Rarely anyone in there is pure human. Been there to go sight-seeing and only seen vampires and demons roaming there."

Lilis was silent for a long moment. She had wanted to meet Jotie's bodyguard, but now that she had she felt she was done. But Lilis wasn't yet in the mood to be rude to anyone, Constantine was better at that. Lilis relaxed only a little, twisting the dagger back up into its sheath on her wrist.
"I am Zuki's bodyguard, I am where he is and is not. I protect him from danger before it gets to him. You tell if I am from there or not, but if you meant where I was turned... that was over two hundred years ago and I do not feel like telling you." Lilis said her voice void of emotion so that is was silkily flat. "I am part-demon and I sometimes take easy offense for my demon kin and demon friends. Do you have a problem with my two sides? Vampire and demon?"

"Eeh..." Sithe sunk downwards a little, but flew back up. "I don't know. I'm not too easy with some demons. Vampires, I can handle. I just get tired of small demons that likes to eat faries for snack. They say we are sweet and have lots of flavor, yuck!" Sithe spat.

Lilis quirked another eyebrow at Sithe's comtempt towards some demons. "I'm sure that was satisfying, but won't help you much against one of them." She murmured, rubbing her one of her fingers over the thorns of the roses in her hands. "I am hungry, as it is, and on my way to catch a meal in town. Would you like to come with me? We could talk about the security of our kingdoms and of different methods we could use to protect our lords. But the night is still young yet and you are a day time creature. If you prefer to catch your rest, that is fine with me."

Sithe yawned and shrugged. "Hey, I can stay up a night or two. I'll just have to sleep less, for my duty is always on a sunrise shift when he's still asleep. But yes, I'll like to follow you." He told her as he crossed his legs in mid-air float. "Don't worry, I can keep up with you. But if you have an easier solution that I could travel with you, go ahead and tell me."

"It works good in two ways: first, you can sleep, and second, I wouldn't worry about leaving you behind. I have no doubts that you could keep up, but I have the habit disappearing in darkness or shadows. So my proposal is that you let me carry you. I do not care what perch you pick so long as you are comfortable there." Lilis said in a low voice. She paused for a moment before continuing. "I won't bite you either. You are too small for me to draw an acceptable amount of blood from."

The fairy laughed. "I know you wouldn't do that! Vampires don't bother us, that's why. And your teeth are too big, so it would just cut me in half if you attempt to bite me." He flew over and into one of her pockets. He settled in and moved his wings, until his back was rested comfortablly. He closed his eyes and yelled out of her pocket. "Okay! I'm settled in!"

"Very good." Lilis mumbled and began to run towards the town. She stuffed her roses into the bag that she was carrying. Lilis loved to run, it was one of the few things she was good at besides killing or seriously damaging someone. ~ How is security at Jotie's castle? ~ Lilis asked Sithe curiously and halted at the edge of a cliff. She was going to have fsome fun here and she hoped that Sithe wouldn't mind. ~ If you feel weightless in a moment, I'm having fun so don't worry about it. ~

Sithe nodded and knew the mind speak clearly. ~Yes. I understand. It's very bright and cheerful and nice and clean. Brilliant marble floor and smooth walls are built inside the castle. I belive he likes the color, red for there are lots of red drapes. Either that or it means something, considering there is a few blue drapes then green. How about yours?~

~ I asked about security, not what it looked like. ~ Lilis replied with a grumble and jumped over the edge of the cliff. ~ There are statues, tapestries, and some other stuff that I haven't looked in there for decoration. I have my crew to help me with security though. I try to stay as close to Zuki as I can, but when it is not appropriate for me to follow him I send a snake with him. Kara's taken to Foxtrot, so she's usually with him. Wade follows Zuki when I can't. I keep my people everywhere but close enough so that they can respond if a problem arises. ~
Lilis caught the branch of a tree as she fell and pulled herself up. She climbed up another branch, ran across the limb, and jumped onto the limb of another tree. She did this a few more times before jumping to the forest floor and walking. They were getting close to town, but not terribly so. Lilis could just begin to hear the sounds from the night life. There was still a long walk ahead of her.

Sithe chuckled and sighed. He liked the feeling. It soothed him a little. Every movement bounced him some and he felt light, then back solid when his back fell back on the soft comfortable pocket. ~Oh, security. Well, there's a weak point, but there is no way you can get there, unless you could fly or climb that smooth wall. Security is pretty tight, considering it has many men around. But on the east side of the side castle is a big window and no one ever goes through there. I don't know why, but someone has to guard that area. I even put up a house in that room it was rarely used. I swear, dust is collecting up in there quickly.~

Lilis allowed herself a small smug smile. ~ I'm good at climbing. ~ She told Sithe and began to run again.
It had been a long time since she had run and now she knew how much she had missed it. As she crested the next rise, the noise of the night life intensified. Lilis grumbled and trotted down the hill. She began to walk as she got near the town. She didn't like humans or elves much unless she was bleeding them or they were unusually lucky to have her as a friend.
~ Are you sure you want to watch me feed? It's not very pretty but I'm not messy. And if I get caught, you'll be in trouble too... not that I tend to get caught. ~ Lilis remarked to Sithe as she entered the small crowd. People began to jostle her, but she moved quickly enough so that neither Sithe or her roses got damaged. It didn't matter if people bumped into her, they were the ones who were going to get bruises, not her.

Sithe didn't care. ~I'm not actually going to watch. I'm only going to relax in your pocket for a while, until I feel more awake again. I might need some nettle tea to stay awake.~ He kept his eyes closed for a while and felt like stretching a little, before relaxing again. ~Sorry. It's been a stressful day. Flying post to post everywhere. The place is huge, for my size that is.~

~ Understandable. ~ Lilis said and gave a man a disgusted look when he brushed against her. ~ You should try setting up a network. Get people you trust or are friends with to do duties at certain times in certain places. That way you won't have to fly everywhere, but if just need to be everywhere, find the highest point of the castle and use that as your focal point. You may need a spell or a special spyglass to see if the distance from this point to the ground is very great. ~
Lilis turned down an alley and hopped onto a rooftop. She stooped and walked quickly across the top, stopping once she reached the other side. She peered down into the next alley. A man and a woman were making love. Lilis wrinkled her nose in disgust. She stepped back to give herself some room to jump across. She was going to have to get her meal elsewhere, these two wouldn't have tasted too good. Not to her at least.
Lilis landed quietly on the next roof, ran across it, and jumped to the next roof. She stopped to listen. There sounded like a promising catch a few more houses over. Lilis chuckled softly. Once she fed, she could leave her roses in a few places.
~ Don't you just love it when some mortals act so stupid? It makes living or being already so much easier. ~ Lilis commented and began moving towards her targets.

Sithe snapped open his eyes and closed them again. ~Uh, well... Whatever.~ He told her. He couldn't belive her meal was going to be an innocent. ~As long as you don't get caught, I'm sure it's fine. Just don't be feeding in Kestal, or else I might have to report you over there.~ He told her truthfully.

~ Wherelse would I go? I can't very well feed on other vampires! Do you know what happens to you if you do that!? ~ Lilis asked as she quickly and quietly made her way towards the noises. ~ And besides, I only feed on criminals... those that haven't been caught at least. ~ She told him and paused suddenly on a roof. ~ Hey Sithe, if you do report me... you'll never see me again unless I permit it. I don't bleed children, innocent teens, or innocent adults. I... I miss my own innocence sometimes. ~ Lilis swore softly and continued on her way.

Sithe thought about it a little. ~Well.... If it's criminals, I guess that's okay. I heard Crysos was more strict on the rules and most likely you would get the death penalty anyways.~ He felt a little better when he was resting. ~Tell me if you got... whoever it is. I'll fly out and stretch a little. I don't want to risk loosing sight of you.~ He told her as he continued resting his eyes.

Lilis gave a disdainful snort. ~ As I told you before, you would have to find me first and then you would have to go through the trouble of trying to catch me... while preserving your own life. I don't keep up with the rules in Crysos. My job is to keep an eye out for anyone trying to destroy Zuki and destroy them before they get him. I do my job, even if I'm breaking the rules to do it. I figure more than a few people will be upset if they lost their King than if they lost some other idiot. And they are an idiot for trying something so stupid. ~
Lilis looked over the edge of the next roof and into the alley. There were about six guys and one girl. Four of the men were beating up another guy and the other guy was with the girl. Lilis shook her but was grinning rather evilly.
~ I'm going to have some fun now Sithe... it is advisable that you leave. I like to move pretty fast in a fight. ~ Lilis said, pulling off her cloak, taking off her bag, and taking off her head gear. Her ice blond hair tumbled past her shoulders and to the middle of her back.

Sithe shrugged. ~Eh, oh well. As long as it isn't the innocent. I won't tell then. It might be very unlikely, considering it's at night and I'm mostly asleep by then.~ He hummed a little and climbed out of her pocket. He got out and looked up at her and smiled. ~Nice hair. You look outstanding. Have you ever considered of getting a boyfriend?~
