Ashlyn glared at the mage when the message antered her head. I don't want to go, but now that you've given away my position, I suppose I have to. she sent back to him, but she wasn't the kind to know when abtolute danger was in her midst. she turned to the man beside her. "You'd better get out of here now." She whispered. Then she looked to the shrubs. "You too, whoever you are." She had worn herself out quite a bit, and supposed that it would be best to follow the order given to her. I have a little left... She though. She flicked her fingers and the dark arrow's head was back in her long distance grasp. The arrow head unlodged itself from Raiku's eye and struck the other. She couldn't see if he had used a protaction spell, but she had sent the end into the direction of his eyes. She silently slipped out of the tree and grabbed the man with the strange scarf, no matter reluctance he might give. "Flight is faster. But don't worry, I won't be in the sky." She turned her head around. "If you're still here mage, grab on and I'll take you to the forest edge."

Dimitri started. He hadn't seen the girl in the tree. How does she know exactly what I'm doing?
He didn't respond, though his magical invisibility did slip a bit, the faint transparent outline of a man appeared for a half second, as though he was made of glass, before disappearing again.
I suppose tehre's not much for it... he reached for her shoulder, ready to grab it.

Ashlyn waited for a minute and then felt an unseen hand grab her shoulder. "Good choice." she whispered. She croutched low, letting go of the scarved man and made a few hand signs. She closed her eyes in concentration and muttered, her head bowed, "Give me enough streangth, just to let these two out of danger's grasp." She was takling and hoping out loud, but to some, it might look like a demon praying. She lifted her head and grabbed the visible stranger. "I'm gonna carry you, don't protest, Raiku will hear us." She scopped him up and whispered to the other man. "Hang onto both my shouders, put your head between my wings, and hang on tight. I won't hit you." She pushed off the ground and spread her wings, lifting all three of them off the ground and gliding five feet above it.

][ Bah, sorry that I haven't been keeping up with this one, so this is gonna seem a little strange. ][
When Ashlyn had tried to grab the odd man, her hand would've found no resistance. Or, to be more precise, nothing. The image of the man didn't phase at the passage of the hand, but he grimaced at the sudden nature of the movement. He obviously hadn't wanted to share that little tidbit just yet. When the archer took flight, the odd little man simply disappeared, his body seeming to simply melt away like fog being burned off by the sun.

Dimitri did as he was told, wondering how on earth this girl was going to lift them both into the air. She took off and he realized that she didn't have to fly very high. As a precaution, he extended his field of bent light around Ashlyn as well.
"Where are we going?" He whispered, soft voice touched with the hint of a cyrillic acccent.

They were leaving... All he had to do now was distract the beast to let them get a safe escape and teleport to a safe location, where they could regroup and make a plan... "vehementi eres kristavel!" finished the mage, extending his arms in a crucifix position, sparkles of light rising into the air as a bolt of lightning struck downward from out of the sky toard Raiku. IT sure wouldn't kill him, if it even hit, but one doesn' ever just look and lightning and not react... Some train of thought made the mage smirk.
Already he began casting another spell, a moderate teleportation. He just had to reach someplace safe and rendezvous with the girl, perhaps they could get some reinforcements, or a strike plan.

Rather shocked that the man she had picked up had melted out of her arms, but under the secumstances, she didn't have any verbal reation. When the "invisible" man whispered in her ear she simply answered. "Away from here." She swooped down with the round as it decended as a hill. "I told you that we'd go to the forest edge. Do you need to go somewhere else?"

"Eh, I doubt you could help me.. I'm trying to find a kinetic forcemage named Jaryd, there's some people out looking for him. Seems his past's caught up with him again." Dimitri paused, "Not that you'd know of him... he generally keeps to himself in the woods. Wait. Has anythign of value to you ever just up and flown away all on its own?"

Ashlyn snickrered. "Actually, even though I just got here myself, he just happened to be one of my first aquatences. Has he always been so picky about what kind of species are in the room with him? He's not all that keen toward demons." She looked over her shoulder to see that she could go above the trees coming up ahead without beeing seen by Raiku, if he could see. "Hang on sir." She turned her body upright and gained ten more feet to fly in. "Now then, are you here to help him out, or are you trying to get him too?"

Dimitri laughed. "Oh, no.. I tried that once. I still have the scars to prove it. Jaryd's not the type to go quietly. As for his pickiness in his company... Well most folks are rather put off by demons and the other dark creatures where he and I come from. No offense meant to yourself, but the only reason I got on was because I knew if I stayed behind I'd probably be killed in the crossfire. Though you really don't make me that uncomfortable."
Dimitri shifted slightly. "Though I do recommend you install some reclining seats back here, my arms are starting to get a bit tired."

Ashlyn slowed down a little and sraightened her back so that she seemed like a plank of wood. "I cast a spell before that should increase my streangth. If you need to, I suggest you sit on my back before you have a meeting with the trees. Anyway, seeming that you won't be trying anything bad, I guess that I could take you to Jaryd. Is that what you need?"

Dimitri blinked. He re-oriented himself so that he was sitting on the girl's back This is bizarre, he thought to himself.
"Uh.. yeah.. Thanks. I'd really appreciate that."

I feel like a horse. Ashlyn thought.
"All right then." Ashlyn veered left and swooped lower. In about ten minutes, they were aproching the tavern. Ashlyn stood on the ground and waited for the man to get off her back.
"Must you insist on keeping that light bent around you? Surely it must get tiering."

"Actually, no. I'm quite used to it. I'm surprised that you hadn't noticed it was bent around you as well."
He released his magic and they both rippled into being. Visibly at least.
"So he's in there? Let's go." (Post in Tavern thread now)
