dante watched as she woke up, having done quite a few spells during the night but managing to dispel most of them. when she woke, he seemed to be looking around for a specific scroll, and if she looked down, she'd know why. on her stomach was a new mark, looking to be some sort of tattoo or such, but it was in the shape of a rune. simultaniously, there was one above her on the headboard, and if she tried, she'd notice that she couldn't leave the bed. dante continued to search, looking quicker now that she was awake.

Aaliyah stretched and started to get off the bed, only to feel a faint jerk at her midsection and a feeling as though she were trying to move through a wall. She gazed steadily at Dante, clearly not impressed as settles back down in the centre of the bed. Examing her stomache she finds an intricate rune, not crudely drawn and very meticulously done. "Great. Cremtaarchk. Would you mind telling me why you have decided to keep me in this bed?" she gazed steadily at him, her tail flicking in agitation.

dante looked around still till he finally picked up a single scroll, quickly unfurling it and searching. he nodded as he found a spell and stood, going to her and drawing another rune. he slammed it down on her stomache, the rune disappearing along with the one on the headboard. he sighed and nodded to her. "sorry about that... it was an...uh...accident." he nodded and went back down, rolling the several scrolls up and nodding.

"Ah-huh." said Aaliyah dubiously standing beside the bed and grabbing her blouse as she slipped back into her human form, buttoning the blouse up before turning around she stretched langoriously and ran a hand through her hair. "Well, what's going to happen today?" she asks blandly.

dante went to the desk and picked up the final scroll, slipping it into his pocket, barely fitting, then nodding. "i'm leaving. if you wish to follow, go ahead." he walked to the door, a board nailed over the hole he made, and went through. "you can always change your mind..." he said finally before leaving the room, going down the stairs.

Aaliyah laughed softly and followed him out "It's not like I have anything pressing to do here." She stretched her arms out and halted abruptly, mid-stretch. "You won't tell anyone about my nocturnal erm...pecurliarity will you?" she asked suddenly.

dante stopped in his tracks, turning around. "i'm a halfbreed that practices spells in the night and eats my enemies, do you really thing i'm going to tell about you?" he just sighed and turned around. in the tavern, the people were standing and waiting, the bartender standing with them. beside him was merie, the succubus, but in full demon form. "she told us your leaving, thought we'd say good luck." the bartender said with a nod. merie ran over, giving him a hug. "come back quick, ok? just try not to get caught this time..." dante nodded, patting the girl's shoulder before walking forward. the people all looked at him with a nod, moving out of the way. it wasn't many people, but still a surprise. the bartender, put his hand on dante's shoulder. "hey, give that bastard a few hits for me, alright?" dante gave a smile and nodded. "that, i will..." and continued to walk, walking out of the tavern without another word.

Aaliyah followed slowly, evidently turning things over in her mind. "You're not trying to find a friend...are you?" She caught up and placed a gentle hand on his arm "Why -do- you want to find this...person?" she asked quietly, her green eyes trying to meet his two coloured gaze.

dante looked at her rather matter of factly. "he killed my father, he killed my mother, he tried to kill me. isn't that good enough?" his eyes seemed to probe her for the answer, before he turned and continued to walk. his pace like a human's speed walking, heading for the other end of town.

Aaliyah muttered something under her breath and winced as she stepped on hard stones. "Good enough I guess." after getting a stick in her heel which started to seep out a black liquid she growled "I so wish I didn't have to walk like this."
Muttering curses she dabbed at her heel, pulling out the stick and trying to stem the flow.

dante looked back at her. "well, get used to it, cause from here on, we're going faster." with that, he began to run, as soon as they were out of town. his speed was great, along with his stamina as his face showed the same as if he were walking.

Aaliyah hobbled her way through the town, neatly pinching a few bolts of cloth and a small sheet as she went passed the vendors. Once out of the city however, and Dante started running, Aaliyah swiftly removed her blouse, her wings sprouting from her back as she tucks it around the cloth along with her silk dress, wrapping the sheet around her breasts she knots it and starts running after Dante, her cloven hoves barely touching the ground as she catches up.

dante looked back at her. "don't go full speed. we have three days at this speed, and you'll need to conserve your strength if you're coming with." he kept running, his arms hanging limply behind him as he does. his gaze stays forward casually, as if the speed they're traveling at is no big deal.

She laughs softly "If my legs get too tired I could always fly, I prefer to fly actually but if as you say, we are going to be travelling this fast for a few days, I would rather have a swift means of escape, rather than an easy travel."

dante merely nodded and kept running, darting down the road. soon, the road took a sharp turn, but dante didn't. he leapt up into the trees, bounding branch to branch with great speed, not losing an ounce of it in the process.
