Was she really already better? No..She was lying..and she knew it was a sin..But she didnt want to worry anyone. She crumpled to her knee's and screamed exasperatedly, "Giselle!"
The figure rose its white head gracefully as it gazed downward at the scene below. It had been curled up around the top of the tower, blending in with the white. A Low, sweet sound echoed as the dragon allowed a graceful call to escape from its lips. Snaking around from the tower, it drifted into the air, spiraling downward to Crissy. A soft thud echoed gently as the ground shook slightly from the massive beasts weight.
Its movement was like a snakes as it made its way to Crissy. It large head snaked down to Crissy's as the girl wrapped her hands around it neck. The dragon lifted its head, pulling her to her feet as she steadied herself against the dragons neck. The dragons right wing moved behind Crissy's back to keep her from falling backwards, the other pressed tightly against the creatures back. Another long, elegant call was heard as the creature called out to the spirits around it. "It's ok Giselle..." Crissy said gently, stroking the beasts neck gently, calming the giant.

Bartimeaus fell back in surprise as the dragon landed. He gaped at it with an open mouth. Some bad ass he was... A\the only thing keeping him from transforming and ripping the beast for blood was that this was a holy place. though, his eyes did change back and forth for a bit before relaxing to human form. "My God..." he breathed softly as he stood back up. "It's amazing..." he circled the dragon, clearly forgetting about Crissy.

Giselle's head moved gracefully towards him as she released a gentle sound from her throat, though it expressed a gentle distress. Her tail moved swiftly over his head, missing him by mere inches, and wrapped gently around Crissy's waist for support, no, she was not aiming for him.
Crissy gently soothed the giant beast as she stroked it gently, raising a brow at him. "Yeah..She really is something..Im blessed to have her...Her name is Giselle...Sorry about her..She doesnt take well to new comers, unless your an angel...Sorry..She will get used to you." she gave him a tender smile as Giselle released another sound from her throat, her eyes rested on Crissy gently.

Ally moved swiftly d\out of the building, her pace quickening as she headed for Crissy. Her slender arms wrapped around Crissy's waist to hold her sister up. She gave Giselle a kind look, and gently patted the dragon on the head, allowed Ricochet to climb up onto Giselle head, where her curled up in dead center to sleep.
Crissy smiled at her sister and gave her a calm lok. "Ill be fine.." She said gently.
Allyssa just gave her a curt look. "Liar..You know never to touch the gate..why were you on it this time?" She asked, her fear increasing. She followed Crissy's eyes to Bartimeaus, and gave him a slight nod before looking back to Crissy. "Sometimes its hard to beleive were sisters..But I guess you had your reasons.." She said softly, the souls telling her what had happened.

Bartimeaus smiled at the dragon and bowed deeply. "Greetings, I am Bartimeaus and I mean Crissy no harm..." he murmered, still not sure about the whole dragon situatuion.
Then his eyes met Allyssa's and he smiled. He immediatly knew them to be sisters before she said it. Bartimeaus bowed politly to her as well.

Crissy laughed gently at his remark as Ally held her up, she was slowly regaining her strength back. she figured it owuld be hard for him, but it was no worry for her. The dragons usually stayed away from the people around her anyways. She turned her head towards Gisselle and whisled gently. The dragon rose gently. Ricochet, being awoken, Clung on desperately to the rising dragons head as an exasperated whisle like whine escaped his throat. The dragon was in the air in a heart beat as it headed back for its spot around the top of the tower.
Allyssa gave him a bow as well. "It seems someone has his manners." she laughed gently. "Im Allyssa, but everyone calls me Ally for short. " She flashed him a kind smile and looked at Crissy who was now standing on her own, most of her strength back.

Bartimeaus smiled. "I have been around rude men of my breed and it's not pretty. I have changed my ways. Seems to appeal to women better..." He told her.

Ally smiled again. "It does. Most men are like that,.." She said kindly to him as she released Crissy. Her eyes flashed up as she saw the red dagger like creature approaching. Ricochet nailed her arm, wrapping around it quickly and resting his head on her shoulder..Ally shook her head gently and rolled her eyes..Lazy as ever..Some protector he was...she ignored Ricochet and looked back at Bartimeous. His odd apparel showed her he was not of here.,,though she didnt have much room to talk. She noticed the markings gently. "Ah. A king, you are the one the spirits speak of, how nice to meet you. " She bowed gently.
Crissy laughed gently as Ricochet came flying through the air at ally, and smiled at him gently before rubbing her finger on his tiny head. She looked back at him and smiled. "Yep, a King. And it seems like you were a great king at one time. "

Bartimeaus's eyes clouded over. "I never really got to rule. After my father was killed, I went after his killer and ended up here. I haven't been able to return till I've killed his killer." He watched the small red dragon for a second before returning. "I was actually worshipped as a Prince. I was the first youngest to ever transform the earliest. My Pirde believed that to be a sign that I was meant to be the rightful king. I just haven't had the heart to return yet..." he told them.

The girls nodded. It was good he was able to tell them..Most guys would have shut them out in a heart beat, afraid to damage their pride and ego.
Ally nodded and gave him a comforting smile. "Your welcome to stay here as long as you wish, however, Crissy here needs to be medically tended to, and I never got a chance to take my bath." She said annoyed, giving Crissy a hard look, who in return gave her an innocent grin.
Crissy took his hand gently and pulled him along. "Your room has been waiting for you. We were warned about your arrival before you knew you would meet us. It has a gold plate on the door with your name encarved on it. Inside you will find all you need. The baths are right down the hall from your room, so when your ready, just head on over. " She said kindly before releasing his hand and heading for her room so she could change.
Ally smiled and headed for the Baths, pleading for a hot bath. She wanted one so bad.

Bartimeaus thanked her as she walked away. He watched Allyssa go before searching for his room. Once found, he went in, looking around. It was a rather beautiful room, better then what he had been staying in...

Ally moved gently to the Baths, closing the door quietly behind her. Her Kimono slipped off her figure gently as she smiled, stepping into the hot, fresh water. She slid down the tub, water cascading oever the side. She slipped her long hair out of the lace, and let it tumble ot her over her shoulders and into the water, where it drifted around her gently.
Crissy slipped quietly into her room and dropped the towel, grabbing a fresh kimono and slipping it on over her thin frame, taking a deep breath before slipping into her bed and under the sheets.

Curious as to where the bath's were, BArtimeaus opened the door and walked in, stopping dead in his tracks when his eyes rested on Allyssa.

The water rushed over her body as she sunk down into the tub, but her peace was shattered as her eyes fell upon Bartimeaus. usually, she would scream, and slap womerver walked in, but usually it was on purpose, she knew his was a mistake. Her eyes grew wide as she snatched a towel and wrapped her body, stepping out of the tub. Her hair dripped as she stared at him, unsure of what to do.

"Um...." he said awkwardly. "i'll...just...go...?" he asked, pointing towards the door but he didn't move towards the door.

Her eyes remained on his as he pointed..Strange...He did need to go..but..She didnt want him to leave...She hardly even knew him...What was wrong with her...."Umm....That would probably be the right thing to do.." She added quietely...Serious doubt in her voice..She wasnt quite sure what to do...."We will just keep this between us...." She laughed a little, trying to lighten the mood.

He gave a nervous chuckle and walked backwards towards the door. "of course...Sorry..." he reached out for the door, still staring at her. He fumbled with the door handle before he turned and left the room. When he closed the door, leaning aganist and breathed out. He reliezed he had been holding his breath. "Whoa.." he whispered.

Allyssa's eyes never left the door as she just stared blankly.....What had just happened? Why had she held back from slapping the mess out of him. Dumbfounded, she fell backward, and ended up sitting on the edge of the tub, still clutching the towel...Eyes just beginning to clear.

Collecting himself, he headed back towards his room, his mind all jumbled. He wasn't sure what had just happened and he wasn't sure why he was still thinking about her. He went to his room and closed the door, sighing softly as he collapsed onto his bed.

She felt she had to do something.......Odds were he was completely unsure of what to do...
Rising gently, she stepped from the tub and grabbed a fresh towel, putting the one she had on the edge of the tub. Ricochet tugged a clean kimono over to her, bringing a light smile at his feeble and desperate attempts to please her.
Drying her body off she slipped gracefully into her clean clothes and sighed, she wasn't quite sure what to do herself....He had seemed so...Bah..she couldn't explain it...But for some odd reason, she hadn't wanted him to leave....
Shaking herself gently she dismissed her thoughts..She was a priestess, and an angel none the less, she couldn't allow such thoughts to enter her mind..Yet she was in a human body..She couldn't help it...Could she?
She gently stepped out of the baths and closed the doors behind her, taking a deep breathe before heading for his room. Her knuckles gently touched his door as she knocked, thinking about what she would say..

Bartimeaus flinched. He almost found himself wishing that it was her. He growled and shook his head. Why was he thinking like that? he got up, nonetheless, and opened the door. "Alyssa..." he began, unsure of what to say. Was she here to kick him out? It wouldn't surprise him. Hed gotten in trouble with the wrong women before. It wouldn't make a difference.

Allyssa couldnt help but give a shy smile. "Look..Bartimeaus...About earlier...It wasnt your fault..." She kept going, her words muffled as she talked blindly, her eyes on the floor as her cheeks began to turn a rosy pink color.

He looked away from her. "I-I was just looking for the baths..." he told her, afraid to look at her. He wasn't shy about his emotions. He never was. If he met a hot girl, he'd come out and tell her that but, she was different. She was a priestess. He couldn't get involved...Could he?

Her finger tips tingled as she restrained herself from reaching out to him. The butterflies in her stomach only made her worry worse...She hadn't ever felt like this before..And she hardly knew him to top it off...But she had never wanted a man to embrace her like she wanted him to right now...Her mumbling ceased as she looked up at him, but quickly dropped her gaze to the floor, her thoughts jumbled as she fought to hold herself back.

He watched her for a few seconds, unsure of what was wrong. "Um, do you want to come in? No reason to stand in the hall.." he told her as he stepped aside, allowing her to walk past him inside.

she smiled lightly and nodded as she stepped inside. She knew the room well, she had helped in its design. She glanced about it gently though, unsure of whether she should make eye contact or not...Her hand moved swiftly along the satin sheets of the bed, smoothing out a tiny rippled before she turned around to look at him. She wasnt sure what to say.."Look..You did nothing wrong.." her mumbling began again as she looked at the floor.

This time, he didn't apologize, let alone answer her question. "Why are you here?" he asked her. "I mean, I just walked in on you...naked..." the concept seemed to just come over him as he grinned slightly.

That actually had never occurred to her.."I..I really don't know..." She said gently, a tiny smile lifting her spirits. She looked at his grin and couldn't help but smile. "Why are you grinning? " She asked him, placing a hand on her hip and she smiled tenderly.

he only shook his head, a smirck going across his face. "no reason..." he leaned his butt/back aganist a chair nd crossed his legs and arms as he grinned at her. "Tell me...If you have no idea why you're here...Why are you still here...?" he got up and moved towards her. He was rather close now, his breathing ragged as he smelled her scent. HIs eyes turned into orbs that reflected the light. His lycan self was coming out.

She had to admit..This new side of him..Slightly forceful..different...Brought a light, mysterious smile to her lips. "Why? Do you want me to leave?" She asked him as she fell back, sitting on the bed, watching him.
