Tai waited in Leana to show up, she already spent quality time with her mates and gave them instructions to follow while they investigate the fog that has moved closer to their camp.
Leana walks up holding a while staff that had a Phoenix on top of the staff with blue gems for eyes, Tai takes Leanas hand then leads her forward.
They walk for over a hour to see the fog ten miles from them, Tai looks over at Leana who is looking straight ahead.
" what's wrong with your eyes, I feel like sometimes you are looking straight through me and I'm not saying I don't like it " Tai said playfully earning a scoff from the other girl who pulls her hand away.
" who said I want you to like it.....I can't stand you !" Leana said, Tais smile faltered for a second then she looks away from her toward the fog.
" well I guess that's fine then, I'll still protect you since I promised you and the others. Just do as I say so neither of us end up hurt by whatever this is " Tai said releasing a growl while staring at the fog, Leana looks where Tai is staring and sees outlines of people inside the fog who are as still as statues. Everything Leana sees comes in usually blue colors, white, red and black, it's like a person is sketched in different colors. Tai she can see clearly and is the only one who comes to her like that, even when she doesn't use her skill she can still see Tai. Leana walks ahead of Tai and she starts to hear loud whispers making ripples of light bonce around the fog and she sees outlines of a city. Leana stops walking looking ahead inside of the fog, also bodies were hanging and laying in the streets while people just stood around. One of the buildings had a white flash of light coming from it, something eerie was inside of that building and it also seemed to share power that Leana does when the bright white light pushes away her blue light away making the outlines fade from her view.
They walk to where they are 59 paces away from the fog when that happened, Leana turns to Tai then tries to grab Tais hand when she hit a barrier that was now between them.
Leana quickly puts her hands up feeling the invisible force, Tai was staring at the fog like she forgot Leana was there with her.
Tai starts taking steps toward the fog, Leana tries to as well hitting against another barrier in front of her and every move forward she was obstructed.
" Tai come back please !" Leana shouted while hitting the barrier, she watches Tai get closer and closer to the fog.
Leanas breathing picks up when she sees Tai now ten steps away from the fog, the white light was pulsing like a heart beat the closer Tai got the faster it would go.
Tai changes into her demon form that sounded like a purr of some sort came from her, Tais eyes were glazed over.
" T-Tai I didn't mean it...please come back !" Leana said as she watched the bodies inside the fog start moving in a robotic jerky way, Leana pulls her blind fold off. When she turns around she seen Larissa flying toward them carrying Farron.
" they won't make it in time" Leana said to herself as her while eyes that held a silver color in them were now staring at Tai and the fog.
"AAAAAHHHHHHH" A ear piercing scream left Leanas mouth that broke the barriers, Farron had to quickly use a spell to protect Larissa and herself from busting their ear drums.
Tai wavered back and forth while holding her bloody ears, even her tears that left her eyes were now bloody and Leanna was running to Tai.
Tai was on her knees holding her head and Leanna places both her hands on Tais head then mutters a spell and a soft blue hue was covering both their bodies for a few seconds.
Tai looks up at Leanna meeting her eyes, the girl smiled at Tai caressing her cheek and neither of them noticed a wisp of fog was around Tais foot. They both stand up, Leanna was about to take Tais hand when a loud screech was heard from the fog and Tais leg was jerked from under her making her front hit the ground. Leannas eyes go wide, she jumped toward Tai trying to grab her hand when Tai was dragged into the fog. Larissa lands a few feet away from them and starts running toward where she seen Tai taken into when the fog quickly disperses away.
Larissa looks everywhere the fog covered a minute ago, she could not find any traces if Tai anywhere and all was there was the drag marks that disappear.
Fallon grabs Leana who is looking around as well trying to find what she had seen earlier inside the fog and all was there was things they left at the camp from before. A loud cry left Larissa as she starts walking toward the fog that has surrounded them from the beginning when Farron grabs her arm.
" this fog isn't like the one that took Tai, you'll only get lost without ever finding her again... Let's go talk to the others then keep our eyes out for the fog that seems to have a life of it's own" Farron said, Larissa swings on Farron who side steps the incoming blow, she then kicked toward Farrons mid section and she grabs Larissas foot while Leanna knocks her out from behind.
Farron throws Larissa over her shoulder then stares at where she seen Tai last, they start jogging back to the camp where Calista, Lo, Aliza, Phrae and Tala was waiting near Rau who was getting a unit together. Fallon and the others make it to the camp forty minutes later, she takes Larissa to their tent then puts her in the bed.
They've only seen this weird fog twice over the years, would they never see Tai again or would the fog come to try to take more or what.
" how do we get Tai back and what the fuck was you standing there for !! " Calista hisses out while looking at Leanna who forgot all about her blind fold, she was still stuck on seeing Tai being dragged away and her fingers grazed Tais before she was dragged away. Leanna wasn't paying any attention to the others while she stared at her hand and then tightened her fist.
Phrae walks over to Leanna, she gently rubs her back and then pulls out a blind fold handing it to her. Leanna stares at the blind fold then walks away from the others and exits the tent.
Farron walks behind a set of tents holding her mouth to muffle her cry, she thought they was going to make it in time and when she seen that everything went into slow motion. Farron heard Larissas angry voice outside of the tent and quickly wipes her tears away, she walks around seeing Lo calming the vampire down and Larissa could tell that Farron was crying.
" where can we find this patch of fog, how do we find Tai ?" Larissa asked crossing her arms on her front while holding her tears back, they seen groups of ten men being put together by Leanna and Rau and they sent them out to watch different parts of the fog.
Leanna walks out of the camp when the three Run after her, they silently walk behind Leanna whose eyes are roaming the fog.
(' she'd never keep the blind fold off this long, I guess that happening to Tai has affected her...does she also want Tai ') Farron thought to herself as she looks around the fog also, a horn blowing was heard toward the East and Leanna starts running that way.
" they've must have spotted something " Leanna shouted back to the others when Larissa releases her wings then quickly flies off toward the sound.
Larissa is now hovering above the stunned soldiers who are looking at corpses that seem to have been dead for a long time. They had hikes in their chest and stomach while some had their throats ripped open it heads missing, no blood was on them or the ground.
Larissa lands by the group of guards, she looks over the corpses and it does seem like these wounds were similar to what Tai was capable of.
Leanna and the others finally caught up, she could feel and see some of the residual white light that still remain on the corpses. On one of the corpses chest near the hole in it was a shattered end of a crystal that seemed to be embedded in it's flesh, she pulls out a piece of cloth and digs out any parts of the broken crystals she can find on the creatures.
" these things were inside the fog " Leanna said making the others look at her, they all scan the fog near by but can't find the fog they seen earlier. Another horn sounds off to the south of camp this time, it was a sword they found that belonged to Tai and all of them look at each other with confusion.
" This fog seems to move around freely with the rest, we should be able to spot it again and then we will save Tai " Larissa said grabbing the sword from one of the soldiers, she felt a wet, sticky substance on the handle when she looks at her hand it has blood on it. Larissas breath got caught in her throat while her eyes watered, the blade part had no blood on it what so ever.
Leanna looks away from her then stares at the fog when she caught a flash of white light, she grabs a soldier and pulls him close to her.
" get ropes, sheets whatever and tie them together as quick as you can ...go !" Leanna said while she keeps an eye on the slow pulsing light, she doesn't even blink because she is scared of losing it.
Aliza and the others run back with the soldier carrying a rope tied to several tents material to make it longer, all the women and twelve guards tie themselves to the rope and to one another.
" stay close to each other and follow me these soldiers will stay here with the rope to pull us out if need be " Fallon said while twenty soldiers picked up their end of the rope, Leanna and Fallon was leading them while Larissa,Lo was behind them with Calista and Phrae then Aliza with Tala.
They entered the fog with Leanna keeping her eyes on the light they slowly move toward, the whispering could be heard and the soldiers were shaking from the eerieness they felt while the women was determined to find Tai.
The fog started to get thicker than the rest of the fog around them, the whispers got louder and the fog seemed to be swirling around each person as if searching their bodies for something.
The whispers got louder when they entered the thick fog making it to where it seemed to have surrounded them, the further they walked the thicker the fog got to where the women grabbed each others hands to make sure not lose each other in case something happens to the rope. Another twenty minutes going through the thick fog, it started to thin out to where they were now walking on cobblestone roads and buildings could be seen. The fog slowly clears up showing different size homes and buildings with people walking around, the guards pull their swords out.
" no... don't pull weapons or bother anyone sheath your sword unless we must protect ourselves, stay on the rope and stay together " Farron said looking around while moving forward, they heard a Qin playing beautiful music while moving toward the music. A woman's beautiful voice was humming music when they were standing outside of a large castle dwelling.
Four large guards who was wearing knights armor walks in front of the group, their helmets and suit hid the mens bodies.
" Halt...what business do you have here " one knight ask while putting his hand on his sword, A woman came out from the doors wearing a short white skirt with a top that only covered her breast, but left alot of cleavage showing.
" let them pass, she wants them to enter the castle " the girl said with a smirk as she looks at each woman then giggles as she turns to enter back in the castle. They all start walking toward the entrance when two of the guards hold their arms out to the soldiers that was behind the women.
The girl turned to see they were all still tied to that rope, she rolls her eyes then walks back to them.
" your soldiers can stay with our knights, just leave them on the rope and enter through the damn door. I give my word that you'll be just fine and our time is short so please hurry." she said while watching them, she clicks her tongue then starts to walk away.
" W-Wait if I just go to speak would that be fine " Leanna said while the others shake their heads no and untie their selves from the rope, Larissa pulls out a dagger and wraps the rope around the blade then drives it down in between two cobble stones.
" wait here don't move and don't follow none of them either" Larissa said while glaring at the four knights who didn't move from their spot, they leave the soldiers at the door and follow the girl through a couple large rooms and then down a hallway where two large doors were. The girl waves her hand and the doors open wide to a large throne room with a woman sitting on a throne, her whole body was covered in a dress with sleeves and a veil over her face and a large crown on her head made from gold and gems.
" so mortals what is it that you seek " the woman on the throne said while laying her chin on her hand resting her head.
No one could make out anything through the veil, Leanna shuddered at the woman's dark aura and the young woman who led them here had a white light like what she seen earlier in the fog while this woman's was black and red.
" my wife we want our wife that was taken into this fog " Calista spoke up as she walked forward from the rest, a loud laughter comes from the woman while the girl giggled beside them.
Larissa gritted her teeth as she started to reach for something from her back, Farron grabs her hand then holds it. The Queen watched them and didn't miss a single thing, she slowly stands up then walks toward a door behind the throne.
" get that woman, she has guests" the queen said then looks back at the girl and then enters that room, the girl ushers them into that room.
" have a seat...your wife will be here shortly~" the girl sings out, they notice that it was her that was singing earlier and they each take a seat.
Tai walks through the door standing like she was at attention and not a single look was sent to any of the women that started to move toward her. The girl wraps her arms around Tais waist then Huns a tune, Tai caresses the girls cheek and kisses her lips.
The others stopped moving then Tais eyes flicker toward them as she moves the girl behind her and glares at them.
Calista was the first to move forward and grabs Tais hand, confusion was on Tais face as she let Calista hold her hand. Lo and Larissa wrap their arms around Tai from her sides while Calista kisses her passionately. Farron and the others stood there watching them and their surroundings.
Tai was now kissing Calista back causing the girl to moan, they slowly stop their kiss as Larissa is now taking Tais lips while Los hands were rubbing up and down Tais stomach.
" ENOUGH !!" the Queen shouted with her fists clenched, Leanna walks over to Tai clasping her hands around Tais face and pulls her down into a hungry kiss that made Tais eyes go wide like she was now fully awaken. Leanna was trying to dominate Tais tongue but lost just as quickly, the girl who they followed in pushes them apart.
" MMMPH Tai you hurt my feelings" the girl said in a baby voice, she pulls Tai into a kiss then licks her bottom and top lip clean.
" Suki, let them go back and help them out of the fog " Tai said, the girl narrowed her eyes when looking at Tai and then sighs loudly.
" Lala la la mmmmm hmmm La la " Suki starts humming then turns around and rubs her butt against Tais front while staring at the women in front of her, she stops her eyes on Leanna and Farron.
" you five are not marked and you two are what to her exactly to look and touch her " Suki said while eyeing Farron and Leanna, while reaching back holding onto Tais hips.
" well we haven't had time to be marked !" Aliza said loudly staring the girl down, she shrugs her shoulders then turns around hugging Tais waist.
The girl had black cherry colored hair with red eyes, her height is 5'5" with a small frame and a good sized chest.
Calista kept staring at the girls neck, she sighed in relief when she didn't see a mark.
The girl started to shake in fear while Tai held her, she slowly backed away from her then exited through the door that the queen done earlier.
" Tai we need to leave this place " Farron said walking in front of Tai, she looked in Tais eyes noticing a cloudiness to her eyes.
Suki returned to the room then holds the door open with a smile, she motions her hand to Tai.
" Let's go " Suki said, Tai ushers the girls through the door while leading them to a hallway with doors and stops at the first door.
" ok so pick a room to stay in " Suki said while looking at her nails and the others look at each other while Tai stood there and was staring down the hallway at the last room.
" we want are men here if we are to stay " Farron said with a business smile on her face, Suki nods her head then steps closer to Tai.
" why don't you go bring them here " Suki said pecking Tais lips, Farron walks up beside Tai, she holds Tais hand.
" I'll go with her if you don't mind " Farron said while the others giving a look if relief, Farron nods her head at Phrae who does as well.
" we only need one room to stay in since we're close " Phrae said with a friendly smile, Suki smirked at them and takes her finger across Phrases lips.
" well maybe I can be close to all of you as well " Suki said with a wink, that made Phrae blush and Aliza pulls Phrae away from the girl.
