Trial by Scales (Mamuro)

[Tinnok]

She felt a heat building up inside of her, slowly, surely. She felt the cool grass upon her body which felt like furnace. Bits of loose hair twisted and curled, falling into a face that was flushed with the act they were engaging in, her mouth clambering for Mamuro's, to attach to him in any way possible.

And then she felt it, the sudden urgency that had been pressing into her, filling her up coming to a head. The Dhani's body seemed to sense her tension, for she felt his hips moving with frantic abandon against hers, who were answering his rhythm with one of their own. Lips slid down Mamuro's neck and teeth sank into the flesh just between neck and shoulder, her eyes twisting shut as she felt the heat rise and rise to unbearable levels, and then she felt it, a warmth exploding through her body and felt the shudder through Mamuro, and a sweet release which she had only experienced on one other occasion.

Tinnok's muscles all loosened at once, a long breath sliding out of her throat, though she didn't make any effort to remove herself from Mamuro. The half breed let go of her hold on the Dhani, letting the pleasurable waves of the aftermath sink into her skin which glistened with sweat. She wondered if that was it, his seed crawling up and fastening onto one of her eggs, that she'd be pregnant and start feeling the effects in a few weeks...or perhaps they would have to try again. That thought brought a smile to her face as she sought out Mamuro's lips again, her touch gentle after the intensity of their intimate encounter.

"I apologize for my...inexperience." The thought that had occurred to her during their act then popped back into Tinnok's mind, and her legs still curled around Mamuro's back she slid her fingers gently through his hair, caressing his cheek with a thoughtful thumb. "Do you prefer doing this in your Dhani form?" Just thinking about what he had been doing to her with his tongue made her think that there were surely wonderful things that could happen with a slithering coiling tail, but she rather liked having four limbs to rove and explore her lover's body.

[Kalesserimamoru]

There was a rhythm to their movements that changed and adjusted, yet kept them as one through it all. They grinded into each other, their hips then altering and bucking against the other in the next moment to give and take more pleasure. There was a beauty about Tinnok as she laid there, flush cheeks and hair splayed about her head, lips parted, sending Mamoru sounds of satisfaction.


When she rushed to him for another kiss, the Dhani took it on fully. A wild and passionate clashing of their tongues as he tried to swallow hers into his mouth. It was all animal instinct and the strongest of lust that pushed him forward. Mamoru found Tinnok's being, that which caused the fire between her sweaty thighs to ignite and spread throughout the rest of her body.


He found her and he dove in, a mad ravishing, more barbaric than sensual, as he looked to claim his prize. She was so close now and he was ready to take that last stretch with her. He was hot and the body crashing with his was even hotter. He felt the build coming, the pressure rising and blurring his sight. The final bite into his shoulder urged him to explode and a white, hot light washed over him as he released himself completely inside her.


Breathing in deeply, Mamoru rested on top of her, both hands resting in the grass to each of her shoulders. It was good that the half breed didn't want to move, because he wasn't ready to part from her just yet. The trickster rested his head upon her chest, the sound of her heart thumping seemed to echo in his ear. Smiling he planted kisses between her breasts until she reached to draw him in for another kiss. It was a softer kiss this time, a touch more gentle than anything they had started with.


When she finally spoke again her voice sounded gentler and he smiled at her words. If what they had done was inexperience, he looked forward to the future. Of course in that time he would like to see a longer battle, but he would have to get her to agree to another round first. If not for his tired state, he might have laughed at her second question, but instead he leaned down and kissed her again. "The Dhani form bringsss new intenssity and sso much more. Perhapsss next time you would like to try it, hmm?"


Perhaps his question was too plain, but he didn't see the need to try and cover it up. His want for her was made obvious by his actions during their throw of passion. Still, there was a look in his eyes as he waited for her answer, however before she could say a word or move away he took one last kiss.

[Tinnok]

She snorted a bit as Mamuro suggested next time trying this in Dhani form, she doubted her morphing skills would increase to such a level in their next encounter, whenever that might be. Slowly she separated herself from him, crawling backward, then rolling straight into the water. The cool rush compared to the heat of petching sank into her skin immediately, and she surfaced, with a splash, shaking out her hair. It felt good to wash the remnants and sweat off of her.

A chin sat level upon the grass, yellow eyes staring at Mamuro, who laid out upon the grass. She had done it, answered the call. In theory their deal was not complete until a squalling infant was in the Dhani's grasp, but one way or another, he had had her, she him.

So where did that leave them?

Tinnok didn't know Mamuro's plans or what they could possibly entail, but she knew Dhani, or at the very least, Constrictors, so it must have something to do with screwing over Myrians. The very idea that the Dhani probably still thought they could overtake the horde that was the Myrian race still baffled the half breed. They were in a strange stalemate of a losing war, prolonged only because of their connection to Caiyha, and her relationship with Myri. It was a thin strand that could snap at any moment, yet the Dhani still held such arrogance in their place in the wilds. She had to respect it, for after all they were the only survivors of the decimation her race had wreaked upon the Jungle Wilds, the Charoda not withstanding.

And that same pride, and confidence seemed to leak out of his pores. She hated it, and loved it at the same time, but one thing was for certain, she refused to take part in whatever grand scheme the Trickster was planning. He had manipulated her this far, but she was a Witch of the Wilds, and no male was going to hold sway over her for long...Her eyes closed at the thought, thinking of an Eagle that had flown far away, perhaps never to return, then she stood up, water cascading down scaled flesh.

"I have enjoyed out time together Mamuro, despite my conflicting emotions." One arm rested upon the ground, eyes finding her supplies and weapons.

"But I feel as if our time together is like a timer just calling Myrians to us." Her mouth quirked. As fun as it would be slaughtering more of her former brethren, she didn't lavish the idea like the Dhani did. For her killing Myrians could be enjoyed, but only to a point. Taking revenge upon the one's that had murdered Dog was the closest she had come to enjoying murdering the race that had raised her, but each and every time she had done it, it had been for survival. The time with the Constrictor Phylonurist, escaping from Taloba, with Mamuro, with Aka...

Tinnok was raising herself out of the water, when that last thought sank into her mind and her neck snapped toward Mamuro. "I heard I'm not the only female you're leading on, Mamuro." She grinned. "I met a pretty little thing hunting int he woods, pale as Leth's light, with eyes the color of rubies. A powerful Pyromancer, and it seems you're playing with her even worse than you are with your precious half breed." Her tone was light, but a spark held behind her eyes. It was the spark that a Myrian held under torture, in those primate's eyes as they fought against the giant powerful Dhani in a constant struggle. In one encounter she had been quite taken with Aka, who seemed to flow with the winds, the power to stand her ground, but a spirit that was pulled in every direction, and the one in control of the strings, unsurprisingly was the naked male lying in front of her.

"Do you care for her, or simply the power she wields?" She asked. Her own feelings for Mamuro were seated in lust and un-tapped desires, but Aka...she knew she felt something altogether different.

[Kalesserimamoru]

Mamoru smiled at Tinnok's snort. The half breed seemed to do that a lot and he wondered if it were something she had learned from her Myrian family. He was sure that he had met only one Dhani who snorted and she was a strange woman to begin with. When the half breed slowly separated herself from him, the trickster almost pouted. He had been enjoying her warmth, but it appeared that she had enough of him for one meeting.


It was almost an insult, the way she rushed to the waters so quickly, as if she couldn't wait to get him off her. He said nothing to her, and simply watched as she cooled herself off in the flowing waters around the glade. Mamoru settled himself on his side where he could watch her bathe. He wondered what she was thinking about, after she had so quickly put distance between them. He also wondered if the job had been done, and if not, what then?


He smiled to himself as a thought crossed his mind. This had been the second time that their encounter had gone uninterrupted. This one being even more fun than the last. With that in mind, he imagined their next encounter would have more monkeys than he had scales. It would surely be a time of struggle, but nothing he couldn't over come. Mamoru watched as she stood up, her body glistening from the waters she was just in. What a lovely creature she was, and as much as he would like to think, he couldn't imagine that gleam in her eyes were for him.


"Jusst think. You could have enjoyed yousself even more if you were to, ssay..let down your guard?"


The trickster could imagine what her retort might be, if she decided to give him one at all. She was a woman, half Myrian and Dhani, two races where females rained supreme over their lesser males. Standing up, he found his pants and robes, then redressed himself while she collected her thoughts. "Oh, I'm ssure they are already on their way. What, with all your ssinging." He cackled softly, the Dhani hadn't anticipated the half breed enjoying herself as much as she had. She had been slightly unwilling since she was tricked, but in the end things turned out very differently.


"Leading on?" he asked, a smile slowly creasing along his jaw. "What do you mean?"


Aka and Tinnok were both busy women, and at some point during all of the jumping around they did, the two had met. Not only had they met, but they discussed him of all Dhani. He licked his lips at the word precious. Tinnok surely was that and whether she knew it or not, she was the proof from Caiyha that Dhani and Myrian together weren't a bad thing. But of course the monkeys were too stupid to see that, which was why he would have to kill them all. The trickster already knew Tinnok's thoughts on the subject, she didn't believe that he could do it.


Perhaps even Aka, or even Morgana didn' t think it possible. But the God/Goddess of illusions was very wise and through that God, he had seen this vision. "Isss that what I've been doing? Leading you on Tinnok? I'm ssure that I've ssaid more than once what a great team we make. Why look at it asss anything elsse?" He watched her closely, checking her expression for sighs of truth she may not want him to know. "I'm not ssure what sshe told you. But I'm ssure it wass more flamesss than truth."


At her last question, his interest was more piqued. Tinnok wanted to know if he cared for Aka, and he had to wondered why she cared. "Would you believe me if I ssaid that I did? Or have you already ansswered your own quessstion?" The trickster moved closer to the woman and stood in front of her. His eyes focused into hers and he allowed his arms to rest at his sides. "Why do you care? After all..sshe'sss just another Dhani right?"

[Tinnok]

She watched him watching her, watching him. Her head cocked to the side a little, enjoying her lower view as the constrictor rose and robed himself, standing above her and appraising her similarly to the way she did him. She saw the scrutiny in his gaze, perhaps even displeasure at how swiftly she took to the waters. She had had her fun, but if he expected her to fawn over his lovely body for extended periods of time, he was mistaken, and she rather enjoyed taking her current stance in their twisted little relationship.

"Let down my guard? Perish the thought my sultry snake friend." She grinned. It took a lot to eliminate all of the half breed's walls, wall which she had spent a lifetime building, they might have had a few close encounters, but she did live a life learning to mistrust all things serpentine in nature, even if that meant mistrusting herself as well. She chuckled at his comment about singing, then focused as he concentrated upon the topic of Aka.

"You are a snake with many agendas, you cannot blame me or your little viper for thinking we're being led vs. the ones doing the leading, though I will admit, I cannot vouch for your relationship with Aka." Tinnok rose out of the water, slowly accentuating the fact that he was clothed while her form was still bare. She wrung out her curls, straight and dark from the water, letting her body drip on the soft grass as she listened to Mamuro. "We do make a team of sorts, I suppose, but your intention is to murder my former kin. It is not a task I mind, but neither one that I relish, which I think divides our goals somewhat." She shrugged, as if the idea didn't bother the witch much. She had been a lone wolf most of her life, despite Mamuro's words, that wouldn't be changing for the foreseeable future, even if that future held a child in it.

"As for Aka, she did not tell me much, but it seemed to line up with my own ideas." She paused. "If you say you care for her, I would choose to believe you." There seemed to be a but hanging silently after that phrase, but TInnok did not continue, she rubbed her brow thoughtfully. "She is another Dhani, I suppose, but I have never met one like her. Not many constrictors deal death in fire, and she is a bit strange..." She smirked, knowing that Mamuro probably knew exactly what she meant. "But she is merely searching like us all for answers, I just feel as if she could shatter like glass if one applied the right pressure." She felt strange, she had only known Aka for a short time, but she was sure Mamuro knew her better, since they both inhabited Zinrah. She stood up suddenly, droplets flying from her body, and sought out her garments, lying in a coiled pile upon the ground, starting first with the bandages that bound her breasts, just large enough to pose a problem in combat.

"I simply think that playing with fire can be a dangerous game." She smiled. She hoped Aka's fire burned brighter than Mamuro's innate ability to manipulate her mind. Finished dressing the half breed coiled her damp hair into a ball at the base of her neck, and collected her weapons, strapping knives to her waist, bow and quiver over her shoulder, and a pack hanging from one arm before she approached Mamuro. "It was a pleasure Mamuro, and if all goes well, perhaps I'll meet you back here in three seasons with a little gift for your troubles." She stood, hips at an angle. It meant she wasn't planning on seeing the constrictor for sometime, and honestly the witch wasn't planning on seeing anyone for sometime. She would be wanted by Taloba, and most Dhani would not form such a relationship with her as Mamuro had. No it was time to get out of reach of both cities for a while, re-connect with her Goddess and biome and explore the far reaches of the jungle wilds. So this was goodbye, but not forever.

[Kalesserimamoru]

Mamoru smiled as she grinned. She had an attractive smile to say the least, and he liked the fact that he could bring that expression to her delicate features. But of course he didn't expect her to let down her guard, not around him or anyone. He almost imagined her having a conversation would another, gesturing with one hand and holding a dagger in the other. He could see her a sleep, one arm around the pillow and the other holding a dagger. He could even imagine her sitting atop a male, riding him with one hand on his chest and the other holding a dagger.


The trickster wondered now why she hadn't done so with him. The sight of a savage sitting ontop of him riding him roughly while holding a dagger could have been an interesting experience for him. "I don't blame either of you. I mean...I musst be up to ssomething. It would be inssanity to trussst me. Of all the Dhani in the nesst, I musst be the worsst." Mamoru smiled wickedly, it was very doubtful that a male was the worst Zinrah had to offer, but Tinnok's suggestions made him smile.


"Are you sso ssure about that? You forget that like me, the monkey'sss don't want anything to do with you either. They will hunt you asss they do me, and my kind. It iss alwayss about ssurvival and there isss no other choice. When forced into ssuch oddsss, why burden yourssself with unneeded guilt?"


He figured that he would ask, thought he doubted she'd answer back. Tinnok seemed more confused than a woman with a solid plan, and to question that plan would only confuse her more. "At ssome point, you really sshould tell me all about your plansss. I'm very interesssted to know what you're up too."


Mamoru cackled as Tinnok gave him her impression of Aka. The viper was weird, but he had to admit he liked that about her. Many in the nest said that he was strange, however when Aka arrived they all forgot about him, it was too funny to him and at the perfect time. "Aka isss ssuch a ssweat girl. I'm ssure you'll make the besst of friendsss. I ssuppossse I'm the bad guy in thisss asss well? The one to sshatter the glasss?" He cackled softly, whatever they talked about, he had to think it must have been intense.


The trickster watched as she stood up and went over to her garments to redress herself. A pity, he thought. A body as tempting as hers shouldn't ever be covered. But he said none of this and listened as she continued. "Playing with fire hmm? Isss that worry I hear in your voice Tinnok? You don't have to be...I'm fine." He watched her more, enjoying the last moments that he had to see the half breed's glistening, bare flesh before she covered it.


Tinnok said her good byes, the half breed apparently wanted to disappear into the depths of the jungle again as she had before. She gave no indication that she planned to see him again until, or if she had a child to bring him. Mamoru stepped closer and pulled her into his arms, holding her tightly as he kissed her deeply one final time. It was hard to say if they would see each other again, and if so, it was harder to say what one could expect.


Would they still be the same beings, or something entirely different. "I did enjoy our time together, perhapsss we will have more in the future, or not..Either way, we'll always have the glade." he finished with a cackle and pulled away from her. "Til we next meet Tinnok. Don't die out there."
