Rehyan just sighed and stood up. Then she looked at Kai with very tired and upset eyes. "Look, Godess, I'm not a regular, person, or regular monster, or regular anything, but I really dig some regular sleep and your pray in my head drilling like a dragon's roar right behind me is really NOT cool at all." Signals at Darya while keeps ranting. Honestly, all we can see of you is a cloud, so I dunno if you're the real goddess or not and I have like half of the land looking for my head, so I must be careful." He sits down and uses his Fried Turkey Vision to get more food. "Also, we are not team players by any stretch of the imagination, which is why we're in the sidelines."

Kai wasn't happy with the young man's words." And just how am I suppose to prove that I'm Chaos?" She asked. Why did she have to prove who she was anyway? This was silly. "Never mind." She said. "I haven't time for children who don't play well." She said vanishing. Her voice lingered. "That prayer like a dragons roar will only get worse till I can stop Order." She said. "So either get your butts in gear and come along, Ponds or bugger off!"

She came back to Yami sighing. Oh well she couldn't for the life of her understand why in the fact of the destruction of all that was around them people could still worry about playing nice with others. "You mortals don't make any sense." She muttered and floated along.

Rehyan watched the goddess' form fly away and just sighed angry. "I really hate when I have to deal with this crap..." Rehyan was not an easy person to treat with, but that's mostly because he feels the same with other people. He just can't empathize with others and share their points of view simply because he can't actually understand how the other person's mind works. He tried telepathy once, yes, thanks to her mother's special powers, but knowing what are they thinking didn't make other people make sense. If he gains that power somewhere in his life time, he may end up punching everything in sight. That said, he got fed up and flew to Kai and Yami with Daryan in his back. "Okay, have it your way. But, let it be noted from day one, I freakin' hate you, goddess..."

Darya barely had enough time to think before she they went flying again, dropping the turkey in the process.

“You really need to knock this off!!” She tried to yell.

Darya was not accustomed to traveling this way and she did not like it. She moved quicker in the shadows. Darya could have made up on the roof without teleporting. As a sorceress she had learned a few tricks a long the way. She was starting to wonder about her new alliance but the Goddess was her top priority. This was the closet she had ever gotten and she was not going to let this opportunity slip away.

Yami was walking around the town well lost. When Kai asked about having a map, he just looked at her sheepishly. "I don't sadly. I just kind of been wondering around the country hoping to find any clues. I guess it wouldn't hurt to buy one..." With that Yami headed the marketplace hoping he would find a good map. On their way there he overheard Kai talking about mortals not making any sense. He figure she was talking about the war and he just kept quiet. He didn't know what to say to that comment because there was nothing to say. Wars never make any sense.

When they got to the marketplace, Yami found a stall that was selling maps of the country. He search through them and found a decent one. He gave the merchant some gold and walked back to the alleyway to talk to Kai.

"Okay," he said once they got there. "I have a map now so." He pulled it open for her to see it. "Can you tell me where you body is located?"

Kai looked at Yami when asked where her body was. "Well it's not cold." She said, if it was she would feel it. She closed her eyes and focus on herself. She listened hard to the sounds around her. "I hear…" she trailed off. "..A stream.." she questioned. "maybe a small river. I can't be sure." her tone apologetic. She listened again. "There are birds and maybe monkeys?" she questioned again. She opened her eyes. "I'm sorry i can't really do much at this distance. I should know more as we get closer but at least it's not a cold region!" She said. "that's something. It's not overly hot either. Rather comfy but I can't tell if that's cause of where i am or if that's the temp of the location."

Rehyan heard the words and got in the path of goddess and Yami, right when she described where her body could be. "It's in the forest. Only place I know with those characteristics" He lands softly near them, but only because he knows he has a passenger in his back. After he lands and lets Darya get her feet on the ground, looks at the map. "The forest may be near where I live, upstream the river, but by the other hand there's another forest in the same river downstream. The sure thing is the river is a few miles east." He let's his enhanced hearing do some investigation. "I think this path leads to it", adds, signalling the path at his right. "Of course, expect me to be wrong. I teleport too often to keep hunters of my tracks." adding "Stupid hunters..." under his breath.

It did not take as long to recover as the last time they teleported. She still did not like it because she was starting to get used to it. Once she found her bearings she looked around. She listened as her new associate looked at the map and tried to figure out which way to go. Darya did not spend a lot of time in the forest. Too many flammable objects. She will have to be careful not to avoid any incidents.

“Well we have to start somewhere. Once we get to the river we can figure it out from there.” Darya unsheathed her sword. “Hopefully we won’t run into those hunters.”

Yami jumped when he heard other people's voice. Who were they and could they see Kai? The boy seem certain about the forest. The girl was too quick to agree. Yami looked back at the map and saw a forest that was near the village they were in. It was a huge and a big river went through it. He could see why hunters would be there since there would be many forms of life to hunt. But he could he trust these two? It was hard to trust anyone these days because of the war.

He turned to the goddess and asked, "Do you know these people? If so can we trust them?"

"No I don't know them, but they apparently can see me or one can and the other is playing along, but I can't be sure of that till they are alone." she looked at Yami. "I would say let's start in the forest near by, but that seems to easy. Order wouldn't let it be that easy." Her face fell at the mention of her twin brother. "But yes," She spoke peeking up, "We must start some where." She forced a smile. She kept her own counsel. Yami she liked. he was the first to speak to her and he didn't sneak around either. She liked that. The girl and the boy that had just joined them Kai wasn't sure about. She didn't like the boy much but he could possibly see her, and if he could then she needed him and his skills to get back to her body. "So let's go already!" She said and floated off in the wrong direction from the forest.

Rehyan was not amused and decided to point the party in the right direction. "This way, your divinity." He felt the goddess was not really up to the needed maturity for the role, which he hates a lot: beings meant to protect the world acting non-seriously is something she hates to deal with and he shows it easily. In fact, her simple attitude was kinda putting him off and was part of the reason he wanted to remain in the dark at first, the other part being his inability to deal with other people. Being half monster is hard for him, but it also makes it harder to trust in others, as he had been hunted so long it's not even funny anymore. He just can't take any more crap and may snap if provoked.

There was no doubt now that this was Goddess and Darya was relieved that the first part of her goal was complete. She only hoped that Reyhan would be able to get a hold of himself now that they were one group. She could already see that he was bristling as he marched into the forest. There was no way of knowing if they were even going in the right direction. She gripped her sword and fell back until she was walking with Yami.

"What do you think of all of this?" She whispered.

Yami was happy that she didn't know these people well enough, but she seem okay with them. He would just have to keep an eye on them. He followed the group toward the forest. He walked in the back along with the girl. He then heard her question.

"To be honest I have no clue," he replied. "I just want to help Kai. By the way I don't think I introduce myself properly. I am Yami and you are? "

Kai stopped as she turned fast towards the voice to the boy. She tilted her head to the side and watched as they set off in the opposite direction from where she was headed. That was odd, didn't they know they should follow her? it was her 'gut' she was following, but then she was the one who literally lost herself. She sighed and slowly followed behind them, lost in thought. She missed Xareth. She wished he was with her. He was her best friend and big brother figure. They had met when this incarnation of her was still fairly young, and he was already old. She remembered being a child so to speak, she was one of the two oldest beings in creation, but her form and mind were a child's, looking up at the imposing demon before her. She had been crying she didn't understand why or where she was. She clutched at the bear that had shown up with her to her chest. Xareth knelt before the small almighty goddess and smiled. A horrifying smile for anyone else. But for Kai it stopped her tears and brought a giggle from her lips. From that day forward the pair were always together. The demon raised this incarnation of the goddess, she was his daughter and sister. She was his world. And he was hers.

Kai floated along thinking about her past and her lost friend and guard she didn't see the shadow cast in front of her. She didn't hear the light footsteps behind her either. She just floated along as she had since she lost her body, unaware of what could see her other than her heroes. She squeaked as arms encircled her. "You are a hard goddess to find, for not having a body." A familiar voice whispered in her ear. Lights went off in her eyes and Kai turned her head to see a familiar horn and ear.

"XARETH!" She exclaimed and turn in his embrace to hug him back. Now she knew why she was trapped, Xareth was the only being that could always touch her. She squeezed his neck. "I've missed you!" They released each other from their hug and she smiled up at the demon she'd known all of her current incarnation. He stood nearly 7 feet tall, with bat like wings that were 45 feet wide at least. His body was like look into molten gold. The way the colors on his skin kept moving. His eyes were just like her's something they shared the moment he made the pact to protect her for the rest of their lives. They were bound together at the life force. He couldn't live without her was putting it lightly. When that pact had been made his eyes became hers, swirling gold and emerald. The demon chuckled at her. She was always doing crazy things, like running off when she should stay put.

"It's good to see you too Kai." He said his deep voice, soothing the troubled goddess.

"I found my Heroes!" she said proudly, and Xareth just shook his head. Of course she did, Kai wouldn't be able to stand being incorporeal for long.

"So let's meet them" he said and started to shrink. He's horns retreated a bit into his head and his wings disappeared altogether. His skin turned a dark mocha color and his hair turned a shade of red matching Kai's. His eyes stayed the same, small swirling pools of liquid gold and emerald. Now in human-ish form and dressed for traveling, he smiled at his goddess. "Show the way, Hon."

"Kay!" Kai would have skipped if her feet could touch the ground. She lead the way to where she hoped the others would be. Spotting them not far off she raised her voice. "HEYS YOUS GUYS! I found another Hero!" Her voice was light and full of cheer. It was a relief to have Xareth with her again.

Rehyan turned around and saw Xareth. For some reason, he felt less annoyed of the newcomer and he couldn't tell exactly why, but it was something he felt from him. Weird, he thought, why does this guy feels so... familiar? He shook it off and welcomed the new one. "Hello, I guess... I'm Rehyan the Hell Saber." He could tell Xareth was a very different person from the goddess. More mature than her and probably wiser. He also could tell the guy was closer to the goddess than any of them. "I guess you got the call as well", he jokingly says when gesturing to his own head.

(Guys Xareth looks human and only Yami could be able to tell his a demon at all. just keep that in mind. He looks like a normal dude and to anyone but other demons he would smell and all that other stuff like a human or at least a humanoid critter.)

Darya managed a rare smile. Yami seemed ok. At least she was hoping so. The group was starting look formidable and Darya was starting to relax a bit. 
 
“I am Darya.” She replied. “I guess we agree on one thing, I am here to help Kai. Do you know how many of u--”
 
Darya stopped short noticing the new person. Instinctively she reached her sword, gripping it tightly. Her eyes darted around making sure that no one else is going to appear out of nowhere. This guy seemed unassuming and the Goddess appeared to be very attached to them. She loosened the grip on her sword…slightly.
 
“I am Darya.” She introduced herself to the new arrival.

Yami turned and looked at the person that Kai was introducing to them. He slightly cock is head. A demon? It was very rare to find a demon in this land which was always odd to Yami seeing how he was a demon too. Why weren't there others like them? Yami shrugged if off and slighting smiled at Xareth.

"I'm Yami," he spoke and wondered if he should mention the fact that he is demon to the others. It would probably be best if it was up to him.

Order watched through the eyes of his minion. His eyes narrowed at the sight of her smiling. She should be suffering! How dare she smile and laugh! He worked long and hard to seal her away, to stop her from using her powers. But there she was with her "heroes" trying to find her lost body.

"You won't win, Sister mine." His voice oozed into the darkness. "No this world will be mine."

A shadow passed over the group as the minion returned to it's master on black wings. Things would be getting harder from this point for the Heroes.

Xareth smiled at Yami. His senses telling him that the man before him was a demon too. He wondered if Kai knew this. Then thought that she more than likely didn't she wasn't the most observant person. "I'm Xareth." His deep voice, smooth like silk. He said nothing else, but kept a close eye on Kai who had turned her eyes skyward like she had seen something. He turned to look at the sky but only saw soft white clouds floating by the sun. What had she seen? He would have to ask later.

Kai felt the thing before she saw it. She knew that feeling, like cold slime over your skin. it was her brother, or one of his minions. They all gave the same feel to her. She shivered as the introductions were made. She turned her eyes skyward fast as the shadow passed over head. She didn't see it, it wasn't on this plane but she knew it was there and she knew they wouldn't be able to fight it now. She looked back at her heroes, they weren't ready they weren't a group. Her eyes suddenly held sorrow, they would need a lot of time and work to be a team that could save a goddess from eternal sleep.

Rehyan looked at the skies as the shadow passed over them. He knew there was something bad about the shadow and that was unnerving him. He looked at the goddess and realized her face was not as cheery as before and sighed. He knew he and the people next to him were not gonna go anywhere as they were right now. He just hoped his only friend, a hunter's son he uses to drag along his travels, would come around. He was not happy being alone in this.

He decided that probably he had to be flat out sincere. "The shadow belongs to that brother of you, right? And you feel we're not up to the challenge because we're not actually getting together, right?"

Kai didn't feel shock at the boys comments. She only nodded her head. "Yes that belonged to a minion of Order." At her words, Xareth tensed beside her and moved instinctively closer to her. She cast her eyes down. "And yes, I am. I'm worried that you will not be the heroes I need to be freed." She said her voice full of the sorrow she felt. "You will not work together and you are all suspicion of each other, this will not work and I am to be forever lost." She would have cried then, if she could have. There was a deep ache in her soul then, and she wished she had been right. They could see her and they were strong but they couldn't work at a team, and she needed a team of Heroes to find her sleeping body.

Rehyan looked at her and then at the team assembled in front of her. He was right at his hunch and he sighed. He feared this would happen, so he took a deep breath and decided... "We need to head to my village. Well, it's actually my friend's village... we need to find him. Now." He knew who to bring over the situation: Kyle of the Sand Hunters clan. He's the only person he can fully trust, a person that complements him in every possible aspect: Kyle has the empathy to meet with others, the patience to keep it together and he even has a lot of knowledge about lots of stuff. Kyle is good at cartography and his goal is to explore the whole world. Rehyan thinks no other person may be better suited to make this work than him.

Yami's attention turn to the goddess' and Reyhan's conversation. He felt quite sad about the goddess' comment. She was right Yami didn't trust any of these people, but that how it was. It took awhile for Yami to warm up to people he didn't know. Heck he hated his wife when they first met. However for the sake of mission he was willing to learn how to get along with these people. He then heard Rehyan talking about a friend's of his.

"I am willing to have your friend to join our team," he spoke and turned to the boy. "Please show us the way."

Rehyan sees how willing they were to follow him there and was beggining to think there may be a chance for this to work, but he still wanted to have Kyle with him. "Sure, we're not really far." The half-human white haired looks around and finds an arrow post sign pointing to the river with the legend 'Helios Seed 7 mi'. "7 miles... we'll be at the town before sunset." Rehyan leads the route that goes through the forest to a clearing next to a bridge. Rehyan stops and realizes something. "Everybody, weapons up and valuables safe." His nails grow into claws. "We're in the worst way towards town." There can be heard some movement in the bushes.
