Ryuu growls at him, then takes off as well. She zooms past the vampires, not too far behind from Tarik. Her eyes change color as she looks around, she pulls out a male slave from the tree. After putting him asleep, she puts him on her back then races off. She looks up ahead to see Tarik not too far from her, yet far enough to where it seemed he was winning. She smirks, then runs faster to where she's next to him. "Just so you know...your slave is falling." She says with a smirk, her tail wrapping around the slave's foot and pulled him off of Tarik. Causing him to have to pick the slave up, which was plenty of time for her to speed up and beat him. Which she started to do as she ran faster towards the palace.

Remember those teachers I mentioned having for dreamwalking? I just met them there after quite a while, Onyx thought. "They're kinda harsh and rather wary of others most of the time; if you can attune to ji'e'toh to their minds, they're quite a bit friendlier," he said softly.

Sneaky that assassin, Tarik thinks. But I will not be wearing a dress! He picks up the slave and whips him towards Ryuu, clipping her from behind. He then picks up the man again and flies out of the reach of Ryuu's tail. He laughs as he passes her. "Two can play that game!"

"Oh. You looked...disturbed? No, more like...wierded out." Acos said.

tedibear789 "Oh. You looked...disturbed? No, more like...wierded out." Acos said. "It's been nearly six years since I've seen them or heard from them; 'We will not assist you in the dream any longer,' was the last thing I heard from Bair. I didn't see them again until now, nor have I heard from them. They apparently have grown strong enough in the dream to sense what we did to get here," Onyx said softly, his tone dry and rather bored. It seemed he was bored, but that was only on the surface. Why now? Why have they returned now to speak to me after casting me out like da'tsang? he thought.

Acos was about to reply, when the crowd pulled her out to dance again.

Onyx started strumming a slow tune he knew well; then started singing softly. "She's got a smile that it seems to me,
Reminds me of childhood memories...
Where everything was as fresh as the bright blue sky...
Now and then when I see her face,
She takes me away to that special place...
And if I stared too long...
I'd probably break down and cry...
Oh, sweet child o' mine,
Oh, sweet love of mine...
She's got eyes of the bluest skies...
As if they thought of rain,
I hate to look into those eyes...
And see an ounce of pain,
Her hair reminds me of a warm safe place...
Where as a child I'd hide,
And pray for the thunder and the rain...
To quietly pass me by...
Oh, sweet child o' mine...
Oh, sweet love of mine,
Oh, sweet child o' mine...
Oh, sweet love of mine,
Oh, sweet child o' mine...
Oh, sweet love of mine...
Where do we go....
Where do we go now?
Where do we go...
Where do we go..
Where do we go now?
Where do we go...
Sweet child...
Where do we go now?
Where do we go...
Where do we go now?
Where do we go...
Where do we go now?
Where do we go....
Where do we go now?
Sweet child...
Sweet child o' mine..." he sang quietly.

The musicians began playing along with Onyx's singing, and Acos danced.

Ryuu lets out a large growl as looks up to see him past her. No way I'm being his maid! She runs faster, yet he was far up ahead. She reaches into her sleeve as she runs, pulling out a small dart. She puts the dart in her mouth, then spits it to where it hits a bird flying over them. The bird starts to bleed, throwing off most of the vampires, and falls right on Tarik's face. Ryuu smirks as she uses this to go past him,"Watch out for the vampires.." She warns him as a few of them glance at Tarik with red eyes.

Onyx shifted to a slightly brisker and trickier tune. "I don't know if you'll be able to follow this one, but you can try if you wish," he said softly. "My best friend gave me the best advice,
He said 'each day's a gift and not a given right...'
Leave no stone unturned...
Leave your fears behind,
And try to take the path less traveled by...
That first step you take is the longest stride,
If today was your last day,
Tomorrow was too late,
Could you say goodbye to yesterday..
(would you, Would you)
Would you live each moment like your last?
Leave old pictures in the past?
Donate every dime you have?
(Would you, Would you)
If today was your last day...
(What if, What if, If today was your last day)
Against the grain should be a way of life,
What's worth the price is always worth the fight...
Every second counts cause there's no second try...
So live like you're never living twice,
Don't take the free ride in your whole life...
(What if, What if)
If today was your last day,
Tomorrow was too late,
Could you say goodbye to yesterday..
(Would you, Would you)
Would you live each moment like your last?
Leave old pictures in the past?
Donate every dime you have?
(Would you, Would you)
And would you call old friends you never see..
Reminisce old memories?
Would you forgive your enemies?
(Would you, Would you)
And would you find that one your dreaming of,
Swear up and down to God above,
That you'll finally fall in love?
(That you'll finally fall in love)
If today was your last day...
If today was your last day,
Would you make your mark,
On mending a broken heart?
You know it's never too late,
To shoot for the stars,
Regardless of who you are.
So do whatever it takes,
Cause you can't rewind
A moment in this life.
Let nothing stand in your way,
Cause the hands of time
Are never on your side
If today was your last day,
Tomorrow was too late,
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?
Would you live each moment like your last?
Leave old pictures in the past?
Donate every dime you have?
(Would you, Would you)
And would you call old friends you never see..
Reminisce old memories?
Would you forgive your enemies?
(Would you, Could you)
And would you find that one your dreaming of,
Swear up and down to God above,
That you'll finally fall in love?
(Would you, Would you)
If today was your last day..." he sang. ((If the link doesn't work, the song is #27 on my profile's playlist.))

((I love that song!))
Acos did manage to keep up, although the musicianns didn't know it, so they had to stop playing.

Tarik takes the bird and tosses the carcass at Ryuu. He's not gonna be nice now. He wipes the blood from his face with his sleeve. He maneuvers to out fly the vampires. Ryuu is near the temple gate now. He flies faster and when he is close enough, he rips off his cape and throws it over her like a fishing net. "Grrrr!"

I've got a slower one they should be able to follow, Onyx said silently to Acos.
"Late at night I close my eyes...
And think of how things could have been,
And when I look back...
I remember some words you had said to me...
It's better to have lost at love,
Then never to have loved at all...
Chorus
I won't forget you baby...
(I won't forget you)
Even though I could...
I won't forget you baby,
(I won't forget you)
Even though I should, yeah...
Sometimes in my head,
I can still see pictures of you...
And I laugh to myself...
When I think of all those crazy things that we used to do...
Although miles come between us,
Just between you and me...
Chorus
I won't forget you baby...
(I won't forget you)
Even though I could...
I won't forget you baby,
(I won't forget you)
Even though I should, yeah...
I should let you fade away...
But that just wouldn't be me,
Oh, baby...
Solo
Although miles come between us...
Just between you and me,
Chorus
I won't forget you baby...
(I won't forget you)
Even though I could...
I won't forget you baby,
(I won't forget you)
Even though I should, yeah...
I won't forget you baby...
(I won't forget you)
Memories slowly fade,
I won't forget you baby...
(I won't forget you)
And all the plans we made...
I won't forget you baby..." he sang.

At the end of the song, Acos made some non-harmful smoke come up around her, making her concealed. She them unfurled her wings, and silently took off to the balcony while the crowd was staring at the spot she had been at.

Onyx whistled softly, drawing the peoples' attention. "Ever seen someone simply vanish? I can make things both vanish and reappear with..." he flicked his wrist, lightly tossing a rose into the air. "a flick of my wrist," he finished. He twisted his wrist, then a small coin rolled across the backs of his fingers before he flicked it into the air, where it burst into a bird in a small burst of smoke. The people applauded, some smiling in surprise.
