((
Ack!!! this is Fei posting from Jihon's place. So please ignore the Jihon name ))
Shadow begins to shift through the air, approaching Zera as she's tugged away. The shadow's eyes narrow as Tamrissa takes her place. Upon hearing Tamrissa's command, the shadow lets out a slow steady growl that bellows from within, tugging at her presence as she suddenly feels everything happening among Fei and his sudden change in his once masked presence as the shadow begins to speak to him.
Fei continues to stand around, the cold breeze of the desolated Lower Umbra sends an eerie chill up his spine as suddenly he begins to see through within the shadows.
As the shadow relays the message to him, Fei bites his lower lip, his already irritated face becoming that of direct rage, a small amount of blood dripping from the holes in his lips.
Closing his eyes, Fei speaks back to the Shadow, but Tamrissa can already feel the presence of his words laying like a sheet across her heart and soul as she already percieves the message even before the Shadow approaches her and slides a slender finger across her jaw line. "Tamrissa, why are you protecting her?.... after all she did... she doesn't deserve such an opportunity....... but..... nevermind then. If you feel it's best that she lives, then very well... It's out of my reach... I wish you weren't so stubborn about it. After all, she was responsible for destroying our home and our people...."
The shadows gentle touch, giving her the message the softened, cold voice of the shadow echoing into her body, beyond Fei, sounding more convincing and manipulative then what she felt when she felt Fei's message, as if it was twisted somewhere between the shadow speaking and Fei's original message to her that she felt, calls out as if the beast was knocking at the door of her very soul. "Why do you protect such a maggot? A hell bent, manipulative beast.... If you cared about either of us, you'd be rid of the witch! She doesn't deserve to live.... and you're giving her the right to decieve you once again..... but then again...... who are you to trust?"
The shadow glides gently backwards after twisting Fei's message, unaware that she has already felt the truth of Fei's message, giving notice to itself as the true beast of Fei. It's face neutral as it stares off into Tamrissa, as if seeing through her. Slowly uncoiling to the ground, a small whirl of smoke emits as the shadow vanishes, returning to the darkness with an echoing screech.
Once feeling that Tamrissa has recieved his message, the shadow is suddenly cut off from him as if it has a mind of it's own giving Fei the hint that he needs to retake control, and to do that, he needs to retake control of his beast by quenching it's and his thirst for blood.
"...... I hope you know what you're doing Tamrissa....." Fei speaks out into the darkness, knowing very well that she can't hear him as her presence is suddenly cut away from him like it's suffocating him in emptiness, and the longer she's away, the worse it feels, and the stronger the bond grows.
"It is not the fear of death that drives us.... It is the fear of eternal life...."
