Shadow tried to control her tears, but didn't manage as she hugged her sister's limp form.

Subject: Re: Rockslide Tue Dec 23, 2008 4:40 pm

Natalie looked at Shadow.
"Do you want to be alone?" she asked.

Subject: Re: Rockslide Tue Dec 23, 2008 4:43 pm

Shadow looked up at Natalie, her violet eyes bright wit htears, but she shook her head.
"I have to bury her..."

Subject: Re: Rockslide Tue Dec 23, 2008 5:08 pm

"Or..we could...you know...bring her back..." said Natalie, knowing a way which might work.

Subject: Re: Rockslide Tue Dec 23, 2008 6:02 pm

"How?" Shadow asked, a pained expression on her face. Merlas had started to neigh mournfully, sensing Shadow's emotions.

Subject: Re: Rockslide Tue Dec 23, 2008 6:08 pm

"There is a spell....an ancient spell...i found it several years ago...it restored life for a while..." said Natalie quietly, "and if my calculations are precise, we should be able to conduct it at sundown.

Subject: Re: Rockslide Tue Dec 23, 2008 6:10 pm

Shadow swallowed hard, nodding.

Subject: Re: Rockslide Tue Dec 23, 2008 6:16 pm

"For now...keep her body warm...I'll get some firewood and we will keep warm, ok?" said Natalie, walking away to look for fuel in the vacinity.

Subject: Re: Rockslide Tue Dec 23, 2008 6:25 pm

Shadow nodded. Merlas, understanding the order, lay down and covered Raven with a wing.

Subject: Re: Rockslide Tue Dec 23, 2008 6:32 pm

Natalie, once she had gather enough wood, placed them in a bundle near the ground and set them alight with her wand.

Subject: Re: Rockslide Tue Dec 23, 2008 6:34 pm

Shadow leant against Merlas' shoulder, trying to stop crying.

Subject: Re: Rockslide Tue Dec 23, 2008 6:38 pm

"Shadow...I won't let you lose Raven...even if I have to give her my own body," said Natalie, hugging Shadow to comfort her and to keep her warm.

Subject: Re: Rockslide Tue Dec 23, 2008 6:39 pm

Shadow nodded slowly and dried her eyes.

Subject: Re: Rockslide Tue Dec 23, 2008 6:43 pm

Natalie hugged against Star.
"How old is he now?" she said, remembering the day he was born.

Subject: Re: Rockslide Tue Dec 23, 2008 6:44 pm

"About two now." Shadow said quietly.

Subject: Re: Rockslide Tue Dec 23, 2008 6:50 pm

"It does not feel that long...are you sure that's not in horse years?" Natalie asked.

Subject: Re: Rockslide Tue Dec 23, 2008 6:54 pm

Shadow thought back.
"True, he is two in horse years. Seven months in our years."

Subject: Re: Rockslide Tue Dec 23, 2008 6:58 pm

"Ah...ok...good...thought I was going mad..." said Natalie, smiling slightly.

Subject: Re: Rockslide Tue Dec 23, 2008 7:01 pm

Shadow smiled faintly.

Subject: Re: Rockslide Tue Dec 23, 2008 7:05 pm

Natalie stroked Midnight absently.

Subject: Re: Rockslide Tue Dec 23, 2008 7:08 pm

Midnight nickered gently. Shadow played with Merlas' mane.

Subject: Re: Rockslide Tue Dec 23, 2008 7:22 pm

Natalie smiled slighty, hugging close to Midnight for warmth.

Subject: Re: Rockslide Tue Dec 23, 2008 7:24 pm

Midnight Curled himself around Natalie, sharing his warmth.

Subject: Re: Rockslide Tue Dec 23, 2008 7:31 pm

Natalie began to fall asleep....which she rarely ever did, being a vampire.

Subject: Re: Rockslide Tue Dec 23, 2008 7:34 pm

Shadow had already fallen asleep, one hand tangled in Merlas' mane.
