So there aren't many trees around but as they move towards the tomb the forest/jungle will get slightly denser. This is so the tomb entrance can be hidden away in the trees and so the tomb itself can be enclosed in the canopy and such. This is getting good! ^_^ Not that it wasn't before but I can't wait to see what happens next! big_smile
---------------------------------------------

Riordan shakes his head to answer the Jedi’s question. “No need. They arrived quite some time ago.”

As if on cue, Slade appears before the group, the blonde vampire as intimidating as ever in this hazardous setting, a dark hunger rippling in the air around him which puts everyone except Riordan on edge. George cannot help but notice the eerie black gloves the man now dons. Slade moves his hands to speak, the seemingly solid material of the cloth wisping faintly with the action. Poisonous whispers begin to echo within George’s mind.

Kill, kill, kill. Kill, kill, kill...

The Jedi’s blood runs cold, every muscle in his body tensing at the memories which rush through his mind. Those... those gloves... the... the black smoke! Razvan’s black smoke! He can see it now, slithering around Slade’s fingers to form what -at first glance- appears to be a normal pair of gloves. But they weren’t... they dance across the vampire’s skin like living creatures themselves.

Slade... how could he manipulate such power? How could he stand that voice which no doubt echoed in his own mind even now? Slade growls as if catching George’s thoughts and with simple flicks of his wrists the black gloves disperse into the air with a haunting hiss.

“Kain waits up ahead at the Tomb’s entrance,” he states coldly, his eyes distant as if searching for something else beyond the people before him. “We should not waste any more time than necessary.”

With that the blonde vampire flash steps to the scarce treeline surrounding the cruiser and using the Force peels apart the trees to create a path. “This way...”

OMG!!! Better yet here is the 'entrance' to the tomb/temple with your Jedi statues. ^_^ Once they walk through that doorway its like a canopy (in the first picture), keeping the Temple away from prying eyes and adventurers. big_smile I LOVE IT!!!

lol I had pictured it overgrown as well. I'll try to find a picture of an ancient jungle tomb with a statue. If I can't we'll just imagine the statue as being there. Be back real soon. To google, away! ^_^

Riordan is straight too, dear. wink And I'm sorry. I didn't think you'd have a 'security' checkpoint so near the place the characters were actually going. I'm expecting the tomb to be out in the middle of nowhere where people wouldn't venture or where it would be hard to gain access to it. It is cursed after all. No one has ever returned. *spooky ghost noises* tongue And because of this the area and the tomb/Temple need to be really eerie. Do you want to find a pic or can I have at it? smile

Ah, well you see... I can't answer that question... exactly. Or give you pointers about what George needs to defeat Razvan. The vampire plot is very complex and to reveal one thing could reveal a lot of other things. So for now... I'll just keep it all to myself and spring it on ya. ^_^

And maybe I did. Slade doesn't like George too much either. tongue And I'll make sure to give those two guys of yours gruesome deaths. Muhahahaha! XP
---------------------------------------------------

Riordan nods, having no issue with the present situation. Kain, however, seems extremely agitated, his gaze landing on the two soldiers by the cruiser. Lightsabers?! His eyes narrow. He hadn't noticed before... their connections were so weak compared to his own. But as he focused he could feel them. More Jedi?! He growls aggressively, his anger quickly reaching a boiling point. He would not agree to this.

Slade moves to the redhead's side, casting the other vampire a glance, releasing a small amount of his power to snuff out Kain's and keep the man under control. "Settle down..."

Kain's eyes widen slightly and he turns to Slade with a dark glare, slapping the blonde's hand away when it reaches for his chest. "How tha f**k ya 'spect me ta f***in' calm down damn it?! One f***in' Jedi is nuff for me to deal with. I don't f***in' need anymore taggin' along."

Slade growls, the faintest threat of white fangs evident in the slight curl of his lip.  Riordan glances back at the source of commotion, reaching out to touch his brother's mind.

"Brother, now is not the time for this..." he pleads, his voice deep and smooth.

Kain pushes back against Riordan's thoughts. "I ain't gettin' on that ship with f***in' Jedi."

Slade hits him on the back, the simple pat enough to cause the redhead slight discomfort. "Same 'ere. Nothin' against the Jedi personally... I just don't like flyin'." He looks at Kain. "Race ya."

The blonde suddenly disappears. "Bastard!" Kain roars before disappearing himself.

Riordan turns back to George with a look as if nothing at all had happened. He holds his hand out for George to proceed into the cruiser. As the Jedi does so one of the noble's lean hands lands softly on his shoulder. He steps closer to George and his voice lowers so their conversation is not overheard.

"The tomb of the Elders is no ordinary ruins, Master Jedi," he begins, his voice deep and dark. "It was once a Holy Temple of the very beings the Vampire King turned it against and its cursed ground was once worshipped as sacred. Many secrets lie buried within such desolation but we are trifling with powerful forces which do not take kindly to trespassers."

"Be wary, Master Jedi," a threatening bite suddenly clinging to his words, "and guard yourself well. Your taint could very well be your undoing as mine could be my own. Do not hesitate to strike me down should I not be able to withstand the darkness because I assure you, I will not hesitate to kill you should I be presented with the same opportunity. You and I are not like my brother and Slade; we cannot tame the curse in our blood. We would lose our humanity to a monster... and I will not allow it."

--------------------------------------------------------------------
Riordan does not have any issues with George. In fact he likes the Jedi. He's merely saying that if George becomes a vampire he will kill him without hesitation and he expects George to do the same for him.

Oh really? And why would you hate him so much? Do tell. ^_^ By the way, remember Slade isn't g*y (which is why he kinda flirts in his own twisted way with Leina in that last post). Just like I have kinks with making characters straight g*y I also have kinks with them being referred to as such (even if they are bi). I don't know why. I'm just weird like that sometimes. tongue

Also regarding the tomb... I had plans for the 'final' chamber as well but it's all yours. smile I'll just have a secret tunnel or something somehow pop up before they leave. Otherwise my entire Force vampire plot is kinda poop. tongue Is that okay with you? I also have plans to have some sort of Guardian figure appear before them upon nearing the tomb. This figure, as well as several elements inside the tomb, are part of the extensive Elder plot I’m working on. Is that cool?

Btw, Jest whenever you get back just let me know and I’ll post that vampire part for you. It’s all written up and everything. I just didn’t want to post it while you weren’t around and have you lose it in the storyline me and George have written since then. smile
---------------------------------------------

Slade’s eyes jump to George, distain and power lurking in those deep sky blue pools. George cannot help but be captivated by the intensity of color shimmering in the vampire’s eyes and soon finds he can’t looked away. What lasts only a mere second or two seems to stretch into eternity. Shivers run up George’s spine. He suddenly feels trapped beneath Slade’s gaze, the fact only strengthening his resolve. He had no reason to. He was a Jedi after all...

His body fights to break the blonde’s spell only to discover he cannot move. His mouth opens to demand his release but silence is all he utters. His heart leaps in panic and air fills his lungs in frantic bursts.  This... what was it?! What was Slade doing?! As if abruptly losing interest, Slade’s eyes find Riordan, freeing George from the vampire’s hold, the Jedi taking a deep breath in appreciation. The older vampire’s hand slides from Kain’s chest before he shoves both into the pockets of his jeans.

“Well, looks like this ‘ere lady is important if you want that Jedi of yours surviving this mess,” he states cooly, his attitude now as serious as ever, his tone lacking any charm to return to the ice fire it once embodied. There was no doubt in anyone’s mind that this man was the Shirokami.

“Indeed,” Riordan says simply as he weighs the situation mentally. They needed to stay light. Too many people would only draw unwanted attention to themselves. No doubt the purebreds already had their suspicions...

He turns to George. “If you deem it necessary, Lady Naberrie is welcome to accompany us. However,” he quickly adds, “I would advise her escort to consist of only two of her most trusted soldiers. This will not be an easy task I assure you, Master Jedi. Loyalties will be tested...”

-------------------------------------------------
Okay what Slade does to George here is a combination of two things. Firstly he paralyzes George using a simple but expertly woven Force trick (so George cannot detect the web around his mind being formed or even hope to break it). Secondly he uses an illusion to double the effect of the paralysis, making George believe a situation last longer than it does and making him panic thusly.

He does this all with a simple glance. My, my Slade’s got some tricks up his sleeves doesn’t he? wink

It depends for me. Sometimes I get addicted... sometimes I don't. I'm more of a Dragon Age kinda RPG though you know.
