Drake smirked at her "Okay Bella it is" he laughed replying about the name thing. Though Drake had said she was the first chimera he's ever run into she was also easier to talk to than most people, though Drake quickly shoved off the thought. "Well I don't know what to tell you about the teeth thing..." he turned back to the men that were there "So, we're going to do this or not" before he could start the fight Bella did some of that magic stuff that everyone called Alchemy. Drake never learned it didn't see the point in it "Well that was impressive" he said "But, sometimes the old fashioned way works the best..." Drake put his sword up and ran towards one of the men. The guy swung at Drake, Drake ducked under him and spun on his left foot lifting his right foot into the man's head. The guy spun around slamming into the ground now moving, the second man looked on then turned back to Bella before hissing as if he had a snake tongue "I'll have to inform mistress Voluttà about this" he said leaping into the tree at inhuman speeds Drake looked on before turning to the one on the ground. He grabbed his shirt "Hey dude, who is Voluttà?" Drake demanded. |

Isabella looked at Drake with a confused expression,"The old fashioned way can be complicated and very time consuming. It only takes me moments to fashion my weapons from nothing. Training under the most advanced Le..." She broke off when the other chimera mentioned Volutta. Her eyes widened as if in fear,"N....NO! Not.... NO!" She threw down her sword, causing it to shatter into a million pieces and slowly dissolve into its base elements. She ran toward the trees as fast as the chimera she was after, grabbing her swords and slipping one strap on before launching into the trees. She moved with grace from limp to limp, making short order of catching the other chimera. She pounced onto its back, dragging it with her to forest floor. Her instincts set in and she flipped so that she was on top of it. Her eyes were wide, her teeth were bared, her tail was twitching, and her ears were flat,"She can't find out about me. None of them can find out about me. Invidia would come find me. She can't come find me. I can't go back to that." She shut her eyes tight and shut her mouth before drawing her blades and slicing off the chimera's head. She stood up and hissed at the state of her clothing,"Stupid reptile. Now I have to bath again." She sheathed her blades and took off through the trees, landing delicately on the bank. She dropped her blades and stripped off her ruined clothing. She took off at a dead run into the water, hissing when it finally hit her chin. She looked back at Drake,"Their skin is covered in venom, be careful." |

Drake watched as Bella went off after the other one, there was a hint of fear in the way she took off. He was confused by it but paid it no nevermind as he turned back to the other one "So is Volutta and why does she want my sword?" he asked but the thing didn't answer "Great killed it" he said under his breath letting the thing fall to the ground. Drake looked back at Bella when she returned "I didn't touch its skin" he said to her. Drake turned to walk off "Will you be fine out here?" he asked her "Cause I have to be on my way...I'm supposed to be heading to the castle on the out skirts of the desert...and its a long journey" he said crossing his arms as if he was thinking. If he left then it would take him about two days to get there. |

Isabella scrubbed herself clean. She shut her eyes tight as she scrubbed off her face. She coughed a little when she swallowed water. She started to walk back to the back, tossing her lye soap to the side. She shook herself off and then stood there lost in thought. It seemed safe to share what she knew... to a point,"Volutta is one of the four generals. She is the ruler of this area, in a sense. Emertico gave each area to a general. Volutta is scary as sin. I think she is the third or fourth. I don't know. Invidia never regarded her with much respect when we talked privately." She sighed,"As for your sword I have no idea. That seems strange." Bella laughed and shook her head,"Those chimeras will be missed. I have to get back to camp and warn them." She smiled,"If you want, we could provide you with a warm meal and a place to sleep for the night." She pointed to the sky,"The day is half over, and there is nothing for miles." She pulled on her tattered clothes, cursing at a large slash up the side of her gown that ended at her hip,"End of this... now he is going to make me change. I know he is." |

Drake still had his arms crossed he turned back as he listened to Bella talk keeping his eyes on her's as she got dressed, it was the only way his face wouldnt turn red. "General?" He asked confused there was so much he didn't know about the Legion, guess thats what happens when you grow up in an isolated village. He sighed and looked down his grandfather didn't prepare him for any of this that was for damn sure. He then smirked "Well if she's in the Legion I'll just hafta kick her ass" he laughed saying this. When she made the offer he shrugged "Sure why not" he looked around "Probably won't be catching any fish here anyway...we scared them all off..." Drake walked over tothe beach his bag had washed up on it "Hey I thought I lost you too" he laughed and picked it up he went through it grabbing a bottle he drank from it "Ah thats good..." he turned to Bella and smirked "Well, I'm right behind ya, lead the way...oh you want something to drink, I got some milk" He made the off hand comment cause it was all he had, it never occured to him that he was still talking to a cat girl. |

Isabella sighed and shook her head,"You are a little naive when it comes to these things aren't you?" She held up her hand as if to ward off his anger,"That isn't a bad thing, but it can get you killed." She strapped on her katanas, adjusting the straps,"You can't just kick a generals ass. They are second in power to Emertico. Well technically, she would be the third or fourth down. The first and second are much closer to him." She tapped her chin as she thought,"Have you ever been in the army? Because that might help you understand the structure of things. Emertico used that to explain it once to a soldier, the scariest soldier that I ever had the displeasure of serving. Stupid freaking Invidia handing me off because I didn't obey her stupid freaking rules. Look some random guy in the eyes once, and she makes me play slave with some soldier who scared me half to death." She laughed,"Sorry, that was a tad bit of an over share. I tend to do that some times." Bella made a face at the mention of fish. She smiled,"Well, we have more than just fish at the camp. So no worries on having to catch something." She continued her walk into the woods. She smiled at Drake,"I could lead the way with my eyes closed. I can hear the camp from here." She spun around and smacked Drake's cheek, leaving a smile line of cuts as she drew her hand back. Her ears flattened out and her tail began to swish back and forth,"What's next? Are you going to offer me a saucer to drink it out of?" |

Drake listened to what she said when she called him naive he laughed "I call it being confident in my abilities" he told her and he had reason to be after all he was the "destined" one according his family though that was just a joke out here. "And no I don't know much about armies, well aceept the Roman armies...its where I was born" he said as he kept walking with her. When she explained about the soldier thing it gave him more insight to her as a person, she was probably still tormented by her past. Thats something Drake could only partially relate to. "Its fine don't worry about it" he told her as he put his bag over his shoulder. "Hmm more than just fish, sounds good I haven't had chicken in a while..." he laughed and put a hand on his rumbling stomach. He smirked when she said she could hear everything he was about to say something until she turned around and slapped him. He put his hand on his scratched face "What the hell?" he asked her "What are you talking about?" He asked "I just asked if you wanted something to drink, all I have is milk dammit..." He pulled out one of the bottles "See, I was drinking it too, I didn't mean to offend you I was trying to be nice" he said to her sort of angry. |

Isabella's ears didn't straighten up, but her tail stopped moving. She felt like a complete and total jerk. She was used to people making jokes about her cat nature. Most people offered her things like fish and milk out of cruelty. It was rare when she met someone who did it out of kindness. Her eyes widened and her lips began to tremble. She batted her eyelashes,"I am sorry... I... I didn't know." Her eyes became watery,"People are usually so mean to me. They only ever do things like that to make me feel small." She pouted and licked Drake's cheek out of instinct. The small droplets of blood were beginning to bother her slightly. She took the bottle from Drake and took a sip, slipping it back into his hand,"Thank you... it tasted great." Isabella started to walk again,"Come on... lets get to the camp. The General will be wanting to hear about those chimeras, and I can clean your cheek." She looked down at the ground as she walked, a gesture of subservience on her part,"I was born in Rome as well. Vatican City to be exact. My father was a priest, maybe a cardinal. He left me in the Sistine Chapel to be found by the Legion. He handed over his greatest sin to the greatest evil..." |

Drake still had a look of anger on his face but it slowly gave way to a soft look when she apologized and said people always did that to be mean to her. "No, I'm sorry I didn't know" he said to her "I would never do that to be mean to you...you're the first friend I've made since I left my home" he smiled at her. When she licked the blood off his face his face turned completely red, it was unexpected when she tried to hand the bottle back to him he held his hands up "Keep it...I have plenty and if I don't drink it it'll spoil" he said to her laughing slightly "Glad you like it, my village was known for their milk, and well thats about it" he continued to laugh. He walked faster to walk side by side with her he looked at her a smile on his face still "Don't worry about the cheek I've been hurt worse..." he said to her when she explained about where she was born and what her father did his smile faded. "I'm sorry to hear that..." he slipped his hand into her's and held it as they walked "Umm...well, I won't do anything like that to you..." he smiled at her "Just don't scratch me anymore..." he said to her a goofy smirk on his face. |

Isabella's eyes sparkled and she smiled brightly at Drake. She fought back the urge to nuzzle his face, but she allowed herself to purr. She took another sip of the milk,"Very few people are willing to call me their friend. You would make the first friend I have ever made who wasn't an ally first since I left home!" She looked down at her feet,"That is very special." She downed the rest of the mug quickly,"Well, your village had a right to be. This milk is fantastic!" Bella smiled,"I figured as much, but I have some ointment that will take the sting away and help it heal faster." She laughed,"Alchemy can be a wonderful thing." She blushed when he took her hand. It was a gesture that was completely foreign to her. No one had taken her hand since she was a young girl. She smiled,"Thank you... but you don't have to be sorry for it. It is my life. I can only be glad that chapter is over." She laughed,"Ok, no scratches unless you deserve them." She started to run,"Come on, you have to meet my other friends!" <<EXIT>> |
