The Veil of Night

*At night, strange things appear in the Demon Forest, but one was especially strange. A man. Seldom do humans dare to walk under the Demon forest under cover of darkness. But he was different. He wore naught but a black mage skirt and black leather bracers. His chest was bare but for the large red rune on it. It was strange but fireflies raced and flew around him giving off an eerie light as he walked. His black hair swayed in the wind. To the surrounding area his face was just a shadow. Veiled in the night. He seldom walked among the day and only when the need was great. For now he walked the demon forest. Anyone who saw it was soothed for some reason. A small Vampire boy spotted him and stared for a long time. His first thought was, snackage.... but then he stared longer. He sat behind a fallen tree and watched. He felt no desire to kill any living thing, not even as he must to survive, it was strange he thought but the mere sight of this man made him happy. Like the chorus of a thousand angels it made him smile.*

*Gau appeared silently behind Gulrandir, morphing from a drifting shadow into a tall man with long, rusty-red locks pulled back into a ponytail. He rested a clawed hand on the his shoulder, turning the man to face him. Gau's eyes glowed a light yellow in the dark of the night,giving a demonic, fanged smile that would scare even the strongest warriors*
"Now what would you be doing out in the forest at such a time of night? You know it is dangerous, yes?
*He let his eyes scan Gulrandir up and down*
"...particularly for a man in a skirt."
*He put emphasis on the last word, a curt laugh escaping his lips*

*he did not change his expression. He cared not for the petty insults of others about the garbs of his kind*

"I fear nothing of this forest. Especially at night"

*the fireflies moved slower as he talked*

NAkila who had been busy hunting had had her game scared off by something,thouroly disgrulntaled and slightly perturbs she heads towards the sorce still in her primal form, she come up to the scene seeing GAu she stands back for a moment.

"Tell me friend, what brings you out here at this glorious time?"

*Gau shrugged*
"I roam the shadows; a am a shadow. The shadow demon King. The demon forest at night is my playground. I suppose, to cut the verbose chatter, you can call me one of those things that go bump in the night. There are many things to fear here at night; and it would be wise you gained the sense to do so. I can show you fear; I can show you a wakened nightmare."

"Nightmares are but visions to me. Visions of woe and death. I have no fear in the nighttime this is like my lands are always"

*Gau's grip on Gul's shoulder as his eyes began to glow a blood-red. He grinned broader, both his fangs exposed. He claws bit into Gul's flesh and he laughed maliciously*
"Visions of woe and death, eh? Visions are just premonitions of the furture, you know."

*he made no sign of a flinch but the fireflies all around him swarmed up into the demons face*

"That is as well as it may be. But it is not so with my kind"

*Gau peered through the curtains of fireflies at Gul*
"'Your kind'? What, pray tell, is your kind? What makes you all so damn special?"
