Rajnish let out a snarl and turned his head to the direction the wind blew from. He may have been a jerk but he was still a unicorn and hated useless death.
Jayda looked to Rajnish and cocked her head. He seemed irritated and she wasn’t sure… wait… was that the scent of blood in the air? She frowned.
Rajnish looked to Jayda, his purple eyes blazing, “I’m with the woman, Jayda and I have more pressing issues to deal with right now.”
That was his way of saying she was going with him whether she wanted to or not. Her elven blood demanded she go and find out what was causing the scent and stop it no matter what.
She sighed looking from Rajnish, who was already flickering into his normal form, to Togema, “Very sorry.”
Once Rajnish’s transformation was complete, Jayda hopped onto his back and he let out a battle cry, charging through the village and in the direction the scent came from.

Ah, it seems they sensed it too... I think I'll help them, if they'll allow it...
Dustyn looked to his host, giving a curt nod. His face turned from the lost clueless expression it bore to a more serious look.
"Thank you for trying to tend to my needs, but I really must be going. I'm sure you'll be coming along too, however, so I won't say goodbye yet. Until then."
After that, Dustyn ran off in the direction the others went to, preparing to draw his sword. He only hoped that he could be useful here...

Moving with the others Mysterious didn't keep to their path. Quickly making her way into the tree tops she shifted her direction. Moving back toward the outpost and around. It would be night very soon the sun had already started to set, and those responsible would be after her now. She knew the others would be safe if they were lucky enough not the catch the vampires in the act.
If they caught her scent near them they wouldn't pass them by. Stopping in her tracks Mysterious thought for a moment. The others far ahead of her now even more so since she was moving the other direction.
Growling low in her throat mainly to herself she started after the strangers again. Trying to catch up to them for fear of what might happen now with the small party from the outpost.

The group split and left the scene before Togema had a chance to react. "Guards! Alert positions, possible unknown threat!" Togema shouted a basic warning. His crew would know what to do. Everyone that held a sentry position quickly paired up with someone and took a stand in a specific spot on the edge of the town. Togema followed the outlier, Mysterious. Where was she going? He ran beneath, following her sounds, whatever glimpses he could catch of her.

It had taken her some time to sense Togema following her. Stopping as most instantly she hide among the leaves. He was clever and the others were so far ahead as she circled around him. Quiet not to make a sound so he could tell her position.
She let him wonder for a short while before she pounced on him. Swift like vampires were as the forest began to darken slightly. Her hands coming at the collar of his shirt and her weight forcing him down to the ground. There wasn't a change in her expression as she partly pinned him beneath her.
"Why are you following me?" She asked plainly waiting for an answer wondering just how close the others were to the place they had sensed the danger from.

Without warning, Togema lost Mysterious in the trees. After a short glance upward, he noticed her shadow darting about, blotting some areas of the now darkening skies. But she wasn't clear enough - he hit the ground and lost his breath with the surprise attack. His forearm rose sharply into her chest in immediate response the moment he hit the ground. He didn't want to strike her, but it was a reflex.
Whether he connected or not, he wasn't even sure, but in the same motion he was rolling out from being under her, and he came to a kneel. "You're the only one that went the other direction," he answered her, "And the first to notice. I have a strong feeling you know something you've chosen not to tell."

Togema's arm forced Mysterious back. Jumping from him as she landed in a crouched position watching him in the falling darkness. Mental cruising herself for have even stopped at the outpost.
Listening to his questions she just huffed. Standing up completely now.
"There are a lot of things I choose not to speak of." She said partly answering him.
"You carry my scent on you. Your in the same danger the others are now. It is only a guess but I would bet a good one that the thing or things bring this wind about are after me. No doubt vampires from some clan or demons it is hard to tell from this range but i am sure in only a matter of moments we will find out." Mysterious explained as if this was nothing new. Like it was no shock to have this life from day to day.

Without warning, Rajnish stopped his charge. Jayda glanced down at him, puzzled.
“What’s wrong?”
“I sense undead.”
Jayda flinched, “Undead? You mean zombies?”
“No, these seem stronger… I can’t place the exact race, could be wraith or vampire… not sure…”
Jayda sighed, “So what does this mean, we stop here?”
Rajnish snorted, “Of course not. I just want you prepared, last thing I need is your death on my shoulders, literally. You weigh enough as it is.”
Jayda scoffed, “Let’s not bring my weight into this, or I’ll be forced to remind you about when we first met.”
Rajnish snorted. They’d been standing still long enough that the one following them had caught up. Jayda glanced at the silver haired man, she was a bit surprised to see him following them, but she shrugged it off.
“Rajnish says there’s undead ahead, coming from where the blood smell is, stay on your toes.”
With that Rajnish reared, letting out another battle cry and returned to his charge.

"Undead...? This is unusual... Why a small outpost like this? ... It matters not, I suppose..." Dustyn said with a sigh. He then drew his blade. It glimmered in the moon with the same shine as his armor, almost giving off light of its own. Dustyn twirled it a bit to get a feel for the weight, which was almost nothing, before charging up with the other person. He kept up surprisingly well for running on foot, though his speed was no match for the horse ahead of him. He just hoped that the other person was skilled at surviving, she might not have recieved his help for a short time. But it only took seconds to die, Dustyn knew. He increased the speed of his sprint, blade at his side.
He was ready to fight.

"Well, I don't need to be rebuilding anything or taking care of dying people," Togema looked around hoping to find the threat, though he knew that it wouldn't be that easy. "Lead me to them, and I'll get them off your back," he promised her. "But be careful, I don't want you to get hurt either."
He reached around his back on the right side and revealed a viscous looking flame blade with some demonic inscription on it, and held it at the ready. "Don't worry, if you fight and survive, you can tell all the story you want over some liquor later."
