The girl moved with an intense grace as she twirled gently along the path. At the moment, she was free. The dead leaves were kicked up into the air as she twirled past them, sending them into a frenzy. The wind seemed to follow her enchanting motion as her eyes glimmered with a curiosity filled with lust and passion.
The girl was known fairly well within the Neko's tribe. She was forbidden in these lands, which was why she stayed in a secluded area. Her soul had been long ago given to the darkness, why she was here she would keep it a secret. Whether it be good or bad.
Her name was Isabella, a 'spronk' word nowadays. (spronk- bad, unutterable, forbidden, cursing) Most referred to her as Bella when alone, Bella being forbidden as well, but the sentence for uttering it was much lighter. Those who wished to speak of her in public, simply reffered to her as D.S. or Deadly Sin. Sin for short.
She cast her lovely eyes upon the statue before her of an olden time Neko king, her claws gently protruding from her fingertips as she gave it a mischievous glance.

Relaxed, cobalt eyes rested upon the neko as a figure clad in blue attire watched her from a safe distance away. These cat-human hybrids were new to him, and the race seemed to be as diverse as humans. With a light smirk, Nikolai shook his head. No, when it came to individualism and uniqueness, humans always came first… They seemed to be a plague on the lands, in his opinion. Their only purpose was to serve as cattle for the more mysterious races.
His eyes traced to the statue, not really knowing what it symbolized. A fallen warrior, perhaps? Or a well known politician or ruler? Whatever role the neko had played though, he seemed to be nothing more then a memory. This female here disregarded any respects Nick had seen others give to monuments, and her actions confused him slightly. Surely there was some significant reasons why a statue was made in honor of this neko…

A light smirk traced onto her angelic face as she crouched down onto her knee's preparing to crouch, but her ears cought a faint sound of....breathing? She stood and swirled around gracefully, kicking up leave that fell around her figure gently, contrasting to her face, adorning her gentle beauty. Her eyes fell in the direction of Nick, yet alas, he was out of her veiw, though she knew he was there.
She allowed a gently breath to escape her lips as she retracted her claws, placing on ehand on her hip as she continued to face his direction, the leave still falling as a gentle wind swirled around her, only kicking up more of the orange, and gold leave..She had things to do, but she hated on-lookers..

Ah, so she was far more keener then he had given her credit for. Interesting… Stepping into her view, the water elemental made no move to attack. With a calm expression, he studied her features, searching for some hint to her thoughts. Not finding any, Nick blinked a few times, wondering what this wily creature was up to. If she tried to attack, he’d reprimand her. However, if she were to leave him be, he’d cause no trouble for the girl.
“What is that statue for? The one behind you.” That was the only thing that came to mind. Usually, the females of any given race were the more tactful of the two genders, but this one only seemed irritated at his presence, not even bothering for something so trivial as a friendly smile.

Isabella looked over at the statue on last time and scoffed, looking back at him, a glare in her eyes as she folded her arms. "Thats the king that banished me as a small child from these lands. " Her voice was ice cold, not because of him, but because of the tipoc they were discussing. It was a sore topic for her. As a child, he was the king that dubbed her to be evil, he was the first to see her soul for what it truly was, besides the diceiving smiles, dark.

Banished? Raising a brow at the information, Nikolai smirked. “Surely a king would have had a valid point for outlawing a single child… May I be so bold as to ask what his motive was?” She seemed rather bitter about the subject, for obvious reasons. “But if you are banished, why loiter in the neko’s territory? Would you not be hunted down and slain?”

She smiled evily. "Because my soul as a child was tainted. He knew as I grew older, so would my power and darkness. " Her tail flicked behind her gently as she looked ta him, raising a brow. " And they do not hunt me down, because they do not know I am here, and because hunting me ends in more deaths for them. They have tried to slay me, many have. I am Isabella, and you are....." she asked him, her voice the same as she watched him.

Tainted… Well, he supposed not all was sunshine and daffodils. A grim smile came to his features, not too impressed with her life story. Why did people turn towards evil? What good would it do them? “As for my name, I am Nikolai, or Nick for short.” Isabella… A name he would remember for a long time. Not sure if she was going to attack him though, he kept a safe distance between them.

"Pleasure to meet your aquantiance Nick...." She said sarcastically to him before turning around. "Now if you will excuse me, I have buisness to attend to, I just wanted to know who was watching me..." She added flatly before her long claws lsipped out again, her fang tips glimmering as she crouched down to pounce yet again.

Being no stranger to sarcasm, he frowned. How rude of her. Oh well, she’d get what she deserved in the end… An avid believer of karma, Nick sighed, watching her get ready to leave. Just what was she after here in the woods? There was nothing of real value as far as he knew. And if she was just here to find a home, which he doubted, why waste time with memoirs of the past?

She felt his scorn from behind, and ignored it. In a split second she was in the air, then on the statue. The stoo, one foot on each of the statues shoulders. Her tail flicked gracefully behind her as she smirked. Crouched down to eye level with the statue she scoffed. Her claws moved swiftly, and the backflipped gracefully off the statue. As her feet hit the ground, so did the statues head.

He wasn’t too surprised at her rash action, and did nothing to stop her. The affairs of others really weren’t his forte, and besides, there was no real profit to be had if he stopped her. Watching the head fall to the ground with a dull thump, he rolled his eyes in futility. What did that accomplish, removing the head. Absolutely nothing…

She turned around and faced him, sighed gently and retracting her claws, giving him a tiny smile. "This statue is one of their most sacred..By beheading it, it enrages them, thus proving my point.." She answered, seemingly guessing his thoughts.

Raising a brow, he slowly nodded, still not seeing why, or more particularly, how, this 'accomplished' something... "Sure..." Whatever she wanted to think, let her, he figured. "Isn't this a little counter productive if you wish to end this pointless argument? Surely it would be better for everyone if the broken ties were mended." That was his chain of logic, anyways... If this stubborn female wanted to continue sowing seeds of chaos, oh well...

" You see...I dont like mending things, in fact. its my job to stir things up. Chaos and death are my specialty.." She said as she faced him, her gentle featured lightly illuminated from the gentle sun as she placed a hand on her hip.

“And chaos brings you pleasure?” Studying the female’s face very carefully, Nikolai raised a brow. “I’m going to go out on a limb and assume that you will continue your ‘stirring things up,’ and if so, I might be forced to take action against you.” Well, it wasn’t really his business, but if he found something worth protecting here, the elemental would defend it to the death. “But that will depend on whether or not you decide to destroy things that I hold dear.” Keeping a level, calm gaze, Nikolai frowned.

Isabella allowed a grin to creep onto her face. "Is that so?" She asked him and she glanced about. her body moved with the agility and grace of a cat as she walked towards him. Slowly, she walked around him, as if examinig. Her tail flicked gently as her slid around his body. "And just what would that be?" she hissed gently, then laughed bitterly.
Removing her tail she walked back to where she was, and jumped up, landing on the neck of the statue she be-headed. She sat gently, legs crossed, facing him.

"My apologies, but I don't feel like telling you..." Primarily because he had yet to find something of interest here, but he didn't really like this neko in particular. Watching her jump back to the statue he walked calmly over to the stone head, studying its features. Good, evil, who was he to judge? He was a foreigner here.

"Aww...Now thats just to bad..Dont you know its not nice to keep secrets? I told you why I was here, why dont you return the favor?" She hissed, swinging her legs as her tail and ears twitched with the lightest sound.

"Because, I have no secret to give." Staring back at her, he found her wily actions rather amusing if anything. "And what would I gain, telling you this? You might use it to your advantage later on, and that, I will not allow..."

"Me? Use it against you? No!" She said as she tipped over backwards dramaticcly, flipping to the ground. Stepping out from behind the statue she eyes him wearily. Leaning upon it again, her tails twitched at him. "So then, tell me about yourself...You got family?" She asked him, raising her left brow gently, leaning forward, her hands resting upon her knee's.

"I do not appreciate your sarcasm, neko..." Staring evenly back at Isabella, he frowned once more. "Well, if you must know, my family is no longer of the living... Save my brother, Vladimir. You may have met him, I believe he is somewhere in this region."

"Maybe so. " she said coldly as she rose to her feet, folding her arms. "You don't get out much do you? " she said sarcastically..Yet she was passing her time talking with him, and quite enjoyed it.

With a gruff exhale, Nikolai looked away, muttering something to himself. This woman was quite detestable… Like a female version of Vladimir, if he ever saw one. And one of him was all that he could take. “On the contrary, I have seen much in my years of travel. Perhaps even more then you, I would assume. You have not left these lands from what I am getting, so you would be the more sheltered one. Especially with that attitude of yours.”

Her tongue rolled over her lips as she listened. "Just because you have seen a lot-" she strolled towards him as she talked. "-Does not mean you get out a lot...Your so naive.." Her tail flicked his cheek as she walked past him, turning and stopping to face him a few feet away.

This time, Nikolai couldn’t help but laugh at her. “By trying to argue with me, you just me examples on how to prove my point… I see that you have a problem with being beaten, or to be thought of as inferior. Trust me, I am not here to win a debate with you, so feel free to return to your cocoon of ignorant bliss.”

Growling at his remark, she strode towards him. Her hand slid onto his chin, gripping it and forcing him to face her. "You still don't get it, do you? Your attractive, so like most attractive men, I figured you would be one of the arrogant, it seems your heart has been hurt enough, that you proved me wrong, congrats.." she seethed somewhat gently, as if she was holding back her true anger for his protection. "I feed of the ignorance and anger of others. If it turns their heart black, I live off of it. That is why I would push you so far...It seems you have one that does it on a daily basis..A brother perhaps? " Her nose twitched a little as she sneezed. "A fire elementalist, correct?" Raising a brow, she let hi go, remained where she was, inches from him.
