The girl acended without resistence, she was ok, physsicly, even in her sleep she gave out one last loud cry and arched her back, the girl gave no resistence to Samhain's spell. As she went silent, her body finnaly began to enter the spell. -----------------------------------------------------------------------
The Angel rushed forward, he knew in his heart and beleived this girl, could destroy them all, he closed the distence between him and Samhain quickly, his sword raised ready to come down on her neck, but before he got within two yards of her, somthing quick and black slammed into the angel, a secound later the loud snapping of a tree could be heard, as well as an earpeirceing cry, resembeling that of some type of raptor, only much louder. The Angel struggeled, despite his now shatterd wing bones, but a large set of talons were wrapped around his neck, and two smoke gray eyes stared at him feircely, predatarily. behind the eyes was the face of a very large burning bird. flames leapt up from the creatures featherd body, some of the flames reaching over six inches in hight, though, they seemed only to burn the Angel. The Bird was huge, easily the size of a horse in hight. It's tail feather stretched out over three feet behind it laying on the ground aflame. The bird sqeezed its talons tighter around the Angels neck, smoke and the smell of charred fleash now coming from the Angels corpse. The Bird tore a peice of fleash from the Angels stomach, blood squirting from the wound and dripping from the warm meat, then looked back and finnaly noticed Samhain and the girl. It turned to Samhain and screached a challinge to her, then glanced past ehr at the girl.
"An angel? In the Astral? Have things truely gotten so bad........" It said, its voice resonateing in the minds of the people around it.
"Who are you Demon? and what are you two doing to my mortal girl?" he asked his mental voice sounding more curious and protective now, he stepped forward once, and swallowed the meat in his beat, his tail resting over the angel, whose body immediatly began to smoke.

::Samhain lay the flat part of ehr sword on her stomach and bowed low over it. Rising again she addessed the flaming bird.::
''I am Samhain. And I don't know what that angle you're currently burning was going to do, but it was nothing good. He was sent to kill her, its my belief.''
::She looked arund her then back to the bird.::
''There was anoth like me, trying to save her. The other was here when I showed up. I don't know where she is now. bertleby was also here, but I took care of him. Then something happened. And she was thrown into my arms, unconcious. She's wounded and weak. I was sending her to Summerland to protect her from that angel, and to heal her, with food and rest. Once well, i had planned on taking to where she felt she'd be safe here on Earth.''
::She rainsed her free hand. Her left hand, her fingers crooked in a spell casting position.::
''I feel you're protection for her, and nothing that would harm her. If you want her, I'll stop the spell now. Or, I could also take you with us. Seeing as that holy...''
::She said the word with poison.::
''Seeing as it looks like you took care of him well enough, I wanted to go with her there. But first...''
::She waved her hand and the girl froze. no longer rising to the void less than half an inch above her. WInds moved arund her, but she rose no more. The spell was frozen.::
''First, I think I should know who you are. Well. I think I do know who you are, but I'd like to be sure.''

(sorry for lack of responce, thought i had replied earlior) He looked at the woman as she stopped the spell on his freind, he looked at his freind glad to see she was unharmed. He took step forward then spoke, his voice heard only in the mind.
"The other one is of no conearn to me, I am that girls spirit animal, i am however unawhare as to how i got here" he said looking at her, his gaze looked feirce and angry, despite his real feeling being a bird of prey he had a hard time looking like much else.
He then looked at the sky suddenly, and gave out a shrill scream of defiance as he spied over two dozen angels on the horizen, he then looked back to the women who had adressed him.
"We should get going" Was all he said, as he flapped his wings just a few times to become airborn and turned to face the tide of angels, incase the women failed to get them away from whare they were.

OOC: If you want this changed let me know
IC:
::Samhain knew that she couldn't defend the gilr and fightt eh angels. ANd she was pretty sure the spirit animal couldn't either. So all at once she unfrose her spell, as well as sent out a magickal rope from tot eh bird like creature so that when she crossed over during the spell, he would to. ANd thats exactly what happened.
They ended up in a woods. It was day time. Samhain sighed with relief. She could feel the dead souls around her. The world of the living always made her uneasy. She liked Death much beter. Even if Summerland was so bright. Several yards away was a log cabin. She'd landed exactly where she'd wanted to. Carrying the girl witht eh bird behind, she led the way in. She placed the girl in one of the four bedrooms then went to a kitchen like area to start a reviving tea.::
''We'll be safe here. Holys can't enter my domain. You're girl is very special you know. Both sides of this war will want her. THough I work for the "demons" I'm also the only clear thinking and Just of the eight sabbots. When she heals she can choose what she wants to do. Wether it be help us, them, or take no part at all.''
::She stopped talking then, not realizing that she hadn't explain what she was talkign about at all.::

"yes.......though im unsure how i came to the realm of humans, i shall fight along side you, for if this realm falls, They may strike the Astral next" he said looking away in thought.
"Still i wonder why they are after her, shes never truely excelled at anything, and as her spirit animal i know her abilaties, her magicle abilaties are very minamel" He said, a bit of sadnes sin his voice. He cared deeply for the girl despite what he was saying.
"The summerland is more beautiful then i ha dimagined" he said looking arounf, he then turned his head and began preening his tail feathers arching them one by one over his head with his beak. The fire surrounding him shined brightly in the light, but it burned nothing even at points whare it touched the ground.

"She is, deep within her spirit, Gia. We Sabbots have been searching for her for decades. I still can't believe that I just stumbeled on her. Wow, how crazy.''
::She filled a tea cup and went to try and give it to the girl.::
''Many spirit animals don't know the deepest part of their charge's soul. Mine didn't. Poor Alkanaine, Goddess bless his soul.''
::Then, after a pause::
''Whats her name?''
::She looked over at the spirit animal and before he could reply she said.::
''You're a very beautiful creatuer. Whats your name for that matter?''

The girl awoke but said nothing, tremors filling her body, do to its recent ordeal. It had never faced such stress before. SHe took the tea cup and slowly began drinking from it.
"her name is Shanoah Windscar, and I......*He turned his head a moment as if in deep thought. He seems intrigued by the question.
"It has been a very long time since i have been asked that, i am known as Shadow Fire, and i apreshiate your kindness." He said with honestly and looking at the girl glad she was awake now.
"Still i wonder how i was taken from the astral realm....i had been hunting before hand, then it felt as though a hand grabbed me and no matter how much i struggeled escape seemed impossible." He eplained further.

::Samhain smirked to herself.::
''Beltane. He must have been scrying me and the girl. And knowing his powers, he more than likely knew who her guardian was,a nd sent Mabon or Midsummer to fetch you. At least, thats all I can think of. As for my kindness, it is my nature. My soul is so old, I'm told I'm too wise for my age. The other Sabbots are in their mid to late twenties or older, I'm the youngest yet they seem to forget I'm not the eldest. The next Youngest is Beltan, he's twenty-three."
::She looked down not unkindly at the girl as she handed back the cup.::
''How are you feeling Shanoah? Can you tell me how old you are?''
::She spoke soothingly to the poor gil, asking basic questions to simply make sure she had her wits about her. Samhain summoned a warm cloth and dapped her forehead and cheeks with hte warm, damp cloth.''

Shanoah nodded that she was ok, and looked around in curiosity then focussed on the woman above her.
"Im 16 and im all right, though at a loss for whare i am currently, or ow Shadow Fire is here as well, as i do not beleive this to be the Astral realm" She said nodding her thanks at the damp cloth.
Shadow Fire stayed silent during this watching instead the open door, focussing on a messinger who was aproaching quickly. he was glad the girl was all right though but as ashamed of it as he was she was not his main concearn at the moment.
"It seems somone is aproaching" Shadow fire stated blandly.
OOC- how are we going to get back to the earth realm?

OOC: Got an idea. if you don't like it, I'll change it.
::Samhain stood and went to the door. Opening it, it wasn't any messanger, but...::
''BELTANE! How did you get here?''
::The young man picked up Samhain and spinning her kissed her cheeks firmly before putting her down. She never did understand his ways.::
''I asked the god to let me pass.''
''Riiight. Beltane this is Shadow Fire and Shanoah.''
::She then walked back over to the girl and dabbed her head again.::
''To answer you question, I am Samhain, and you are in Summerland.''
''I'm dead?''
''No, no. I simply brought you here for saftey and recovery. Sleep now. A hearty meal will be ready when you wake.''
::She placed a hand on the girl's forhead and whispered a few latin words,a nd the girl dozed off into a deep dreamless sleep. Samhain then rose and truned to Beltane.::
''Now then, why are you here?''
''I'd been scrying you. When I realized that you were in the presence of Gia, I was so excited I had the god send me to you right away. Now we can use her for...''
''You will use her for no such thing! She needs to rest and recover from an earlier ordeal,a dn you will do nothing without her consent when shes of solid mind. Do you understand me, Beltane?''
''Yes, but also, The angel's found H.Q. They have all our essence now. Though this place is harder to find than the last. We should be safe for a month or so. AS it is, the god and goddess want to meet with you as soon as possible.''
''We'd have to return to Earth.''
::She turned to Shadow Fire.::
''It is up to you and your girl.''

After a short discussion both also wished to return to earth, For malissa it had been all she had known for a long time, and she wanted to check on some people she knew, some she thought might even be of help, Shadow Fire wished to go becuse that was whare Malissa was heading.
"I thank you for you assistence, Samhein, however we must also head to earth to find the answers we seek" Shadow fire said looking at Samhain and the messinger with his natural feirce look.
Malissa nodded gently "Yesand their may be a few people i know who may join this battel yet" she said her voice buetral but calm.
"Remmeber Malissa, hold on well, you can not aford to fall off " he said almost fatherly which got Malissa to put her hands on her hips in mock anger.
"Whenever you ready to amke a portel samhein" Malissa said to Samhein.

OOC: I apologize Silver. lets get rolling, shall we?
IC:
::Samhain sighed in exaspertation. The girl needed food and somemore rest at least, but hey, no ever listenes to the teenager until they've made their misteak.::
''Meh, okay then. Lets go.''
''We'll be going to the new H.Q.''
''Of course, M'lord.''
::She said and mockingly bowed. She then touched his forehead, feeling his skin get cold and clammy suddenly beneath her touch. she frown slighty as she pulled her hand away. She had the information she needed. She new where the new H.Q. was.
She called out several latin words, and portal sort of oozed out at her feet. It spread until it was under them all, and then they slowly sank into it.
Several seconds of spinning and swirling in darkness and they emerged in a large conference room. Once they had all made it, the portal closed. Samhain looked around. Just as she expected, the other six sabbots here there as well as the god and goddess.
Samhain approached the goddess, crossed her right forearm over her stomach and bowed over it.::
''M'lady." She said rising. "I bring you, Gia." And she stepped aside swung her left arm out, indicating the girl with her hand.

It was the god who spoke first looking over the girl even though he really did not need to, a habit he had picked up over the course of the war.
"She is not Gia, she is.........diffrent" The god said simply and then went on. " She is of the foul christain god, and yet also of us" the god said looking increaseingly puzzeled.
The goddess stepped forward now with a thin smile, though happyness or anger seemed far from her. "She is very importent however, her death would prove desasterous for all, and yet her living is a liabilaty still. You see, her soul can tear holes into the Astral itself, the ANge;s see her as a weapon, becuse if they used her power correctly, they could merge the two realms, and effectively kill all life on both plains" She said her voice flowing melodiously through the room.
"It is true.....Shadow fire is here becuse of that very reason, she can acomlish in a few minutes what would take a group of highly magicly trained witches, an hour...." The god said. "However her powers are still growing" The god went on.
Shanoah was awed about what the pair had said, and yet she could not fund a way to deny what they said, it somhow felt correct, and Shadow fire was now in a plane he should have never been in.
"So one day i may be able to pulll entire flocks of dragons to earth?" She asked tilting he rhead starngely.
"Yes" The goddess said simply.
Shadow Fire said nothing, instead he just started feircely at the pair.

::Samhain was a bit puzzeled. She sighed::
''I suppose, but you can't blame me for being wrong. Her power levels read like Gia's should.''
''Yes.'' Piped in Beltane. "I saw it too, right when I first saw her. Her levels matched.''
::A few of the other Sabbots nodded their agreement. Samhain went on.::
''So, then I have some question, my lord.''
::Yes, she addressed the Gos, she was Samhain, the final harvest Holiday, they day the god became the lord of death. He was her lord, she held no alligence to the goddess. Everyone knew how she felt about her. No matter how the goddess try, in her goodness, Samhain would not give alligence to both of them. She was the only one who wouldn't. it didn't stop her from giving proper respect though. Anyways, like I said, she directly addressed the god.::
''First off, if she isn't Gai, than what is she? Second, if she is going to be able to build up so much more power, shouldn't we try to keep her from the christians?"
::It was here that somethinghe sad just said really sunk in, and she suddenly started to panic.::
''And the planes! What about thoes. We have to keep her from them! If they combine just the two planes, then it'll cause a chain reaction, and utterly destroy all the others! I don't know about the rest of the Sabbots and their realms, but I refuse to let the land of the dead be destroyed!''
::The others contemplated this, then they spoke up too.::
''yeah, I like Spring Heart. All that pasion can't be ruined.'' Beltane said.
''And Midsummer!'' said mid summer, her realm was clearly a name sake though no one knows which came first. "The limbo of the Sabbots, the most peaceful of them, we get let them crush all the peacefulness!''
::The rest of the sabbots voiced their concerns. And as they did so, Samhain flushed. She knew she had an affect like this on the others, and it tended to annoy the gods. She turned on them.::
''Would you shut it and let them think for a minuet?''
::All went quiet.::

"No, if he hold her against her will, she will resent us and eventually opose us, however, that is not say we should keep her guarded Samhain." The god said speaking calmly, pationtly. he then Glanced to The goddess, for her to contune.
"Yes, the other trouble being is that, she can not stay in one place for long, or the rift her body natrully creates, will form an energy well much like a black hole. At the same time she is attached to earth and can not be away from it for to long, alo wharever she is will not be able to be guarded from angel entry for to long, or vice versa" The goddess explained continueing from whare the god left off.
"We know of your concearns, and they are valid, still this path is the best one avilable at this time" The god stated looking ove rthe sabbots.
