As jvb and I were catching up on everything we had been doing since we separated from the group I felt a new/old presence in my mind and glanced up to see Viper flying toward us. My heart did a funny little pitter-patter as he came closer. Have you ever seen a diva? Even a fallen one? Beautiful, so beautiful to our mortal eyes. You would never question how Lucifer had pursuaded the other angels to follow him in his revolt against his father if you had seen the diva flying back into my life. For a minute I felt all the seduction that was invested in the one immortal creation and sighed softly.
"Okay DQueene, get a grip, this is your friend and companion! Not someone you're supposed to lust after!" I berated myself (silently of course - since I sooo didn't want anyone else to know what I felt everytime I saw him).
jvb was pretty excited, waving at Viper and asking him how close we were to everyone else. Viper glanced at me and smiled, sharing his amusement with me over the sheer boyish enthusiasm that seemed to exude from jvb's every word.
"If we hurry we can make it before they break camp," Viper said.
As we approached camp, we saw all the destruction that had been wrought. Trees were down, bushes flattened ... it looked like a tornado had struck or something even worse. With one accord, jvb and I broke into a run - while Viper took to the sky.
As we rushed into camp, we just stopped because suddenly Wolfy was there blocking our entry. I looked at him and without even thinking I jumped on him and started tussling with him. He knew what I was doing, I knew what I was doing; but I'm pretty sure everyone else thought I was absolutely crazy. Didn't matter though, I knew that if I didn't reassert my control over Wolfy that he wouldn't respect me so that's what I had to do. Given that neither one of us wanted Kiya to be upset with us we didn't use any teeth, <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/badsmile2.gif" alt="" /> we just used strength and agility. We ended up with me on top, one hand on one throat and my teeth resting against his other throat - growling real low. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> My that was fun!
