[Wyndbain]

BlazingTear stepped away from Kiyoko in surprise and, not used to Tobias' difference in build, stumbled and fell back to the floor. She managed to catch herself and sat up, only slightly bruised by her tumble. Through it all she kept her gaze upon Kiyoko, surprized the woman had managed to stay hidden from their sences. Though in the confusion of the moment, she thought, it was possible for them to have easily missed that. "What it is you want here?" As if she even had to ask that question without knowing its horrid answer.

[Kikuyoshi]

Dismissing Blazingtear's question with a simple glance to and from her person, Kiyoko's hand quickly gathered up three arrows, notching each skillfully to her bow. Drawing back she fired, her aim dead on, each pinning down against the opposite wall with a soft woody "chink" sound. What had been caught in the three arrows however, was not Tobias, but rather Tari, her body pinned up against the wall quite nicely. "I'll not have her causing trouble for me..." Attention swiftly caught on Tobias, blazingtear's form reflecting within her eyes. "Seeing how you both don't know how to work each other's bodies...your no threat to me. However, i want you each to drink this." Her hand produced to vials from a pocket, tossing one towards each of them. "It will allow you to be able to controll each others strengths and weaknesses faster." Body turned to leave without further instruction, or as to explaining why she would be helping them.

Tobias gingerly picked up the vial, placing the contents by his nose and taking a soft wiff. Instantly it was brought away, the scent of mint overpowering his nose...though he had to admit that blaze's sense of smell was slightly less than his own. A good thing for him...a bad thing for her. Intense orbs of swirling orangered now focused on Kiyoko. "Where the hell are you off to in such a hurry? What's in it for you if we drink this crap?"

[Wyndbain]

BlazingTear curiously brought the vial near her nose, nearlying throwing it away from her in the hurry to rid the air around her of such a strong scent. It had not occurred to her that Tobias' sence of smell would be stronger than hers. She was as suspicious as Tobias in wondering why Kiyoko would try to help them as she was...although the thing that would help more would be for them to have been returned to their own bodys.

[Kikuyoshi]

Pausing in her steps, Kiyoko hardly bothered to look back at either Tobias or Blazingtear.
"Idiot...if you hadn't been so busy trying to save Blazingtear, you would've noticed my scent on that evil man. Believe me...i have my reasons for wanting to get rid of him as well...i simply don't have the time." Here she casually turned to give them both a look, a small frown to her lips.

A growl seeped from Tari's lips, her body struggling against the holds of the arrows, unable to remove them no matter which way she turned. "Will someone PLEASE get me down from here so i can at least bite her?" Eyes narrowed at the escaping Kiyoko, not really having a reason to like her at the moment.

Ignoring his sibling's plea, Tobias lifted the vial catiously to his lips, tipping his hand so the liquid spilled in at a slow, steady pace. Having thought about it...kiyoko's scent had been on Legato, thus her story checked out. Besides, he also figured that she could've killed them all had she wanted to in the first place, and knew she wouldn't have gone through all the trouble of brewing a concoction to attack with stealth. That just wasn't Kiyoko's way.

The liquid burned his throat, to which he then fell to the floor gaging and coughing, it's feeling almost like a really strong wine, for as soon as the drink hit his stomach, he began to get intensly warm...almost like...fire.

[Wyndbain]

"Tobias!" She moved quickly towards him, the vial Kiyoko had thrown to her still in her hand. For a moment, Blaze's anger at Kiyoko's deceit flared, yet, even from what BlazingTear knew of Kiyoko, isn't wasn't like the woman at all.

[Kikuyoshi]

"GET...AWAY!"
Smaller hands attempted to push back Tobias' body, though only managed to damage his clothing by singeing them. Gradually, the smell of burnt fabric filled the room, and Tobias lay still on the floor in a coughing fit. Moments passed before he grew quiet, his eyes finally opening slowly. Rising to his feet, it was almost as if he weren't there at all, his expression blank and emotionless...a sort of scary thing to see considering the emotions were expressed on Blaze's face. It happened within seconds, the sudden burst of flames that engulfed Blaze's body, hiding Tobias from view...although you could hear him yelling quite clearly from within the swirling vortex of flame. The funny thing about it was however, even though they were within Kagome's hut, the flames refused to even attempt to consume the wood flooring and walls, as if their concentration was on Tobias alone. After what seemed like hours, a hand could be seen through the glowing heat, the flames gradually subsiding and returning within Blaze's body. Tobias stood perfectly stationary for a moment, face blackened from smoke and chest rising and falling heavily from the stress of the situation, eventually sinking down to one knee.

[Wyndbain]

"I had forgotten..." She spoke breathlessly, as though she had just experience what Tobias had. "It had taken me months to get my magic under control..." She frowned, remembering back to a time before she had fully under stood her fire ability. She stepped back from Tobias, draining the vial quickly to get it over with.

The results of her swallowing the liquid were much more different than she had expected. Her earlier anger of the chance that Kiyoko had indeed deceived them was nothing to what she felt now. What puzzled her was the cause of this strong and over powering emotion. Soon enought though, she lost all thought reasoning, forgetting her confusion and emitting a low growl for no particular reason. Tobias' body suddenly changed, much more rappidly than when he had lost control in past times. Pupils changed from amber to silver slits within the red pools of her eyes. No sooner had that happened than a fierce yell escaped her vocals, sounding beastly in tone as her form grew, taking on the shape of a giant demon dog that Tobias' body had only taken on twice before. Sharp canines grew into the slender jaw, claws easily splintered the wood of the floor set into gigantic paws of this out of control beast. BlazingTear's mind was lost in the raging fury of the demon's instinct.

[Kikuyoshi]

"Shit"
It was all Tobias was able to manage to mutter before he darted towards Tari, ripping her from the wall as he crashed through it himself, wincing as he was cut slightly by the splintered wood. Sprawled across the grassy terrain, wide eyes looked up in soft horror, knowing full well that in this form there was absolutly no way to stop or control her...the only thing left to do was to run and hope to god she didn't eat them.

[Wyndbain]

Her growing form easily shattered the wood of the hut, shards flying in every direction as the beast's true size was attained. The ground shook and rumbled with each step, trees shivering and birds in the nearby area taking flight. A monstrous howl was released from her vocals as she threw back her head.

Doushiko ran from the remaining shambles of Kagome's hut after Tobias and Tari. Even she, a very piece of BlazingTear's soul, could not reach her mistress' mind in all the fury and rage.

[Kikuyoshi]

Tari looked up in horror, then at Tobias with a new found sort of respect. "is...is that what you can become?!" Shaking her head she scrambled backwards, slightly more alarmed now. "Geeze...i hope i never piss you off!"

As the ground shook beneath her feet, Tari's form quickly and rappidly altered, her nature being full demon after all, it was quite a bit easier for her to change when compared to Tobias. However, her form was not nearly as large or powerful as Tobias'...and she looked quite minature when in her demon arctic fox form next to him. Growling softly, Tari hoped she could grab a hold of Blaze's attention long enough for the effects of the brew to wear off, just as Tobias' did.


Tobias stood there litterally unable to do anything...in all honesty, he never truely remembered what he had been thinking when in that form...thus he didn't really know of a way to stop her...and being in his current body didn't really help that much.

[Wyndbain]

"Hey Blaze! Yeah it's been a while...I've missed you!! Over these 4...long...geeze, who am I kidding..." Akashi smacked his fist into the nearest tree, frustrated. Scratching his head he tried thinking of another approach. It had been a while since he had last seen her and with so many things happening lately, he had been kept away with business that needed his attention. But four years? A howl suddenly inturupted his thoughts, bronze furred ears perking atop his head. With his mind distracted by this strange noise, Akashi now noticed the familiar scent that he faintly picked up in the direction of where the howl had been emitted. It took him no effort to put the two together.

He was nearly out of breath when he finally saw the looming body of Tobias' demon form and, spotting BlazingTear's not too far from the beast, let out a yell. At his cry, BlazingTear turned, the jaws opened wide and ready to snap up anything that moved. Though when the red orbs fell upon Akashi's figure, the creature hesitated, giving a piteous sounding whimper.

[Kikuyoshi]

Tobias turned, swirling orbs of red locking onto this new form, his nose having picked up the scent quite quickly. Ears fell back against a cranium of black, a look of confusion written all over his face. "Who the hell are you?!" Words were sharp and sarcastic in tone, not quite fitting with his new body image.

Tari held her ground for a moment or two, realizing that Blaze had become distracted by something. Gradually her demon form melted away, replaced once more by her enticing beauty of cream colored skin and pale, glowing blonde hair. "Well...that was a hell of a thing..." Still slightly leery of Blaze, amber orbs kept a close watch on her, though her ears were tuned into what Tobias was saying to this stranger.

[Wyndbain]

Akashi's attention was turned away from the beast as this remarkable question was thrown out form the one whom he thought was Blaze. He moved closer to them, having no doubt in his mind who she was though. "What do you mean who the hell-wait a minute...what's with the attitude!?"

Akashi moved around BlazingTear's body quickly, studying her and appearing as though he were looking for flaws or any give away that she wasn't who he thought she was. He prodded Tobias gentilly and one of his black ears. "Well, you may look identical to her and have the same scent, but you aren't Blaze..."

All the while he had been doing this, BlazingTear, who was within Tobias' body, had become eerily quiet, her form shrinking and slowly returning to normal.

[Kikuyoshi]

Fingers moved to rid himself of a small, pesky piece of lint, ruby orbs momentarily distracted, though they returned to this new figure's body soon enough. "Of course i'm not Blaze." Tobias muttered with obvious irritation, jerking a thumb towards his body. "That's who you're looking for...not me." Dispite his gesture, Tobias was not about to let this creature within an inch of Blazingtear, less he first know exactly who he was. "By the way...i didn't catch your name." Words were spoken flatly, and by their tone, he meant that this stranger was to have no choice on whether or not he wished to speak his title.

"stupid idiot" mutterance was issued by Tari, amber orbs rolling over this figure breifly, taking in his appearance before retuning to Blaze, who had now taken on the appearance of her younger brother. Relief swept clearly over her face, happy that she didn't have to deal with the demon self of her brother anylonger.

[Wyndbain]

"Akashi..." Before he could open his mouth, Blaze had already spoken for him. He turned to look at her as BlazingTear approached them, slowly with a slight dazed look.

"Geeze...I've known you to get into some trouble before...but this..." He frowned, shaking his head, "What in hell happened?"
