Thread: Into the corrupted woods of Felwood! [Himeko x TinyThings]

As the three of them continued walking through the tainted forest Himeko's memories of the past were playing flash backs in her mind. She remembered when her father had taken her out to learn how to tame when she was of age. She had been born into a family of rangers and both her parents had been ranger generals, something of which Himeko had taken pride in. Her and her father had gone out that day fifteen years ago to teach her their ways of taming beasts. She had already been taught the basics of being a hunter, from trap making, tracking down creatures, or even finding traps. It was her first time and her father had found a very rare purple furred cat. They had spent their time tracking it in the woods while her father had stopped them several times to point out the tracks on the ground to the broken branches, making Himeko recite what they were and what they belonged to. The first set of tracks had been a bear's tracks, the paw prints were too big to be either a wolf or a cat. While the second and third set of tracks were from a pack of wolves. But the fourth set of tracks were of tiny paws, looking closely at the ground she had been able to tell it was of a small or young kitten. Her father had been so proud of her for being able to identify all of the tracks as they had begun following the small paw prints to where the one who left them was. Smiling to herself as she followed both the twins she looked around and found tracks from where the guardian had gone and knew they were on the right trail. Yes that day had been a good day for her and her father, even if they hadn't caught the kitten, she still learned from the experience. Her and her father had spent hours following the tracks till they had found the kitten. It was still a baby and it was as purple as her very own skin. At first glance one would have mistaken it for a druid child, but the kitten bore no markings of a druid. But clearly it shared similarities of a druid form. When Himeko tried to coax it from its hiding spot the kitten seemed to not trust her at first but it had came out of hiding after a few moments for it to trust Himeko enough for it to come out slowly. She was about to begin the taming ritual when they had been attacked by a giant bear, which caused the kitten to run away in fear, leaving Himeko and her father without a new companion. Her father had dealt with the bear rather quickly but sadly it wasn't fast enough seeing as the kitten was now long gone from them. Sighing to herself she stopped and kneeled down to where the fresh foot prints were and nodded to herself. We're going the right way still boys. And judging on these tracks she shouldn't be too far from us. She said as she stood back up and continued following her boys till they reached a small clearing in front of a small cliff. As they made it there they were then greeted by a huge cat and Himeko knew that it was the guardian. She watched as the guardian was more focused on the twins than her as she watched the guardian look over at the boys with a very demanding and dominant stare. Not keeping her eyes of the two wolves she had made her way down the cliff and as she was about to speak she noticed another figure on the cliff and noticed it was another Night Elf, looking down at the three of them and smirking before she spoke. As Himeko listened both Haji and Dameon were sitting down on each side of her as they watched the guardian slowly making her way there. Very well then I will not stop her. She paused as she looked back down to the guardian as she was now much closer before turning back to the other elf. If you don't mind me asking, who are you? I am not trying to be rude, but I'm just curious is all. Himeko asked as she took mental notes on her appearance. From the looks of her she seemed slightly younger than her, but not by much. The guardian was now closer to them as she showed no signs of aggression she did however show signs of dominance and like this was something she needed to do. She watched as the guardian kept its head slightly higher than her wolves, holding an almost threatening posture but stayed silent. As Himeko was about to reassure the two the elf had spoke again and she closed her mouth and nodded. Very well then. They remember her from the last time we met, they also remember her saving not only my life but theirs as well. She replied to the elf as she watched the guardian at work. Haji had been watching the guardian very closely, yet he never barked, never whined, and stayed still the entire time. They did not back off, nor did they growl at her. Instead they let out soft and small murrs, which showed they were happy to see the guardian again and also as their way of saying Thank you for saving our lives. Dameon tilted his head to the side as he watched her, both boys didn't once try to raise their heads higher than them, for they could sense what the guardian was doing and that she did not mean them harm. Haji bowed his head slightly as then laid down on his belly as Dameon's ears twitched slightly as she got closer to them. Neither boy growled as she began rubbing her body against theirs, instead both murred as their tails wagged slowly, letting the guardian know they were happy to see her. They knew she was in charge and as long as Himeko was safe from harm, they would submit to the guardian willingly. The could sense what Himeko was feeling and they knew they could trust the guardian. As the guardian got closer to Dameon he lowered his head to her and his ears twitched slightly when she began washing his ear, but never did he resist it as she stroked against his body. He did bark out slightly, but his bark was that of a friendly bark as he began panting a bit with his tongue hanging out the side. He watched the guardian hop back a few steps and then lowered herself, clearly she wanted to play from what he could tell. He smiled as he lowered his body to the ground and rolled over onto his back as he wagged his tail more as he continued to pant as he was showing the guardian he wanted to play as well. This was Dameon's way of playing was when he was on his back.
