--------Eduard had been searching for Gavriel for a while, using the natural system of the forest to his advantage. When at last he found his elusive trickster of a cousin, he was about to go and talk to him when a stranger came into the picture. Where it not for him saying he was alone, Ed could have approached at any time, but alas he was unable to do this without perhaps awakening some hidden daemon within the pretty older girl. Sometimes he hated the idiocy of other people.
--------When she began talking about turning into birds and then began trying to convince Trick to join her in a flight, he silently willed him to say no. It was the logical thing. 'Don't be an idiot. Don't be an idiot. Oh please, Trick, don't be an idiot,'.
--------"Okay, sure," Trick said.
--------Ed proceeded to beat his head against his tree repeatedly.

Heather beamed like a ray of sunshine, anticipation flowing through her veins. She nodded and said simply, "It's easy, really; it's in our blood. All we need to do is awaken it." she said, remembering her mother teaching her to fly. She missed her mother so much, but being able to pass on her teachings made Heather feel like a part of her lived on. She felt a powerful wave of homesickness wash over her and she gave an inner sigh, but made herself smile anyway. When you looked up optimism in the dictionary you found a picture of Heather Orchid.
She ran towards the edge of the ledge of the roof, nearly tripping over her dress. She stood at the edge with her arms out, a smile was on her lips and she turned to Trick, "Watch me." then in one swift movement she displayed the talents of a true shifter.
She kicked off the roof and in mid-air transformed into a white dove. She glided down and around, using gravity as well as her wonderful wings to carry her back to the edge of the roof with only a single puff of her wings to balance her as she landed. "You try!" she said, but it came out in a soft ...coo...

This camp is too boring...
Lawrence thought of walking to the main road and enjoying the windy weather today.
He conditions his body for a jog and was ready for a run.
He got his small handy bag and teleport merging his body in his own shadow.
His power spit him out directly to a tree shadow and surprised as he saw a kid in front of him, spotting over his little friend and a pretty shape-shifter maiden.
He immediately jumped off to another nearby tree almost holding his breath, preventing the nature kid to be alerted by his mere presence.
The kid didn't have any clue of his arrival; his senses are too busy observing the two individuals a far.
This makes Lawrence a little happy, he able to use his stealthy moves and hide himself from the three.
He put his body weight and lied upon the tree trunk to relax him while watching the gifted ones.
Not so long, the boy in front of him awhile ago was now talking with himself whispering things he can't really heard from his current position.
He almost dug into the tree bark to avoid his laughter, when witnessing the kid beating his own head in his tree repeatedly. It was so entertaining; he remembered several cartoons he watched when he was still in childhood. The shadow guy wanted to laugh hard but control his self the best he can. Almost grinding and hugging the trees and shrubs.

Gavriel swallowed as he watched her, his hands fidgeting with the hem of his coat nervously. He couldn't do this - no- this was a bad idea. What if something went wrong? Shifter or no, he realized he'd probably stayed in one place for far too long. He'd stayed with the same person far too long as well - he needed to get back to Eduard and this was just...too risky. He didn't want to get hurt. Eduard needed him. Gavriel was the only one who get actually sneak in to the Guard's apartments successfully. He swallowed and shook his head. "You know what - I - I think this is a bad idea. I've been here too long. I ought to go." He jerked a thumb behind him.

Heather transformed backed into a human, her eyes wide with unhappy surprise, but she brightened up a little and piped up a little once more. "Oh, but Trick, there's no danger. I'll fly below you, my mother taught me how to catch others from falling by sending up pockets of air to support them." she nodded knowingly, "Trust me, flying can get you out of so many sticky situations out here. Like once, I was digging up some roots I found in the forest for dinner, it was late and dark and I couldn't even see my paws in front of me. Little did I realize it was the full moon, and I was pounced on by these awfully mean werewolves. Luckily though, I just transformed and flew away."
She frowned a little more, she felt like she was the one drawing people away. No one ever wanted to stay and hang around with her, it was always run and hide. No one trusted her! What was she doing wrong?! "It hasn't been that long, and I can't do no harm. Really! Stay, I can help; really I can!"

Once more, he found himself bewitched by her friendliness. Gavriel found himself nodding slowly and suddenly trusting that she would, indeed, catch him. She seemed innocent, and while it was usually those that he had to look out for most of the time, there was something different about Heather - a sincerity Gavriel wasn't accustomed to.
"Okay." He then murmured in Russian, "I must be going mad"
He waited for her to fly before he took a deep breath, finally, he jumped off the building. He did it with a flourished flip - if he was going to fall to his death, he might as well do it in style, even if he looked like a perfect idiot doing it.
Gavriel willed himself to fly, if only to save his dignity - he felt himself change form and gave a little, surprised chirp when he found himself beating small, brown wings back and forth. He was a wren.
Well. That was new.

Heather beamed like a little girl once again and transformed back into her dove form, though her muscles were beginning to ache from the shifting she didn't let it show just yet. She took off like a white bullet and hovered just over Trick, "Youdidit-youdidit-youdidit!" she cooed, her sparkling blue eyes still recognizable, "Like I said; it's in our blood. We were born to do this." she dived a bit, feeling wind rush over her primaries made her want to sing, but she kept herself quiet. She flew under the younger shifter and sent out a few good puffs of air to support him.
"Just be careful not to fly too close to the wall, but believe me when I say that your transportation time can be shortened significantly when you take to the sky!" she flew back up to his hight, "Would you like to go anywhere?!"

Gavriel let out one, happy chirrup and blinked as his wings fluttered. He felt himself ride up on the current of air Heather sent up to him and his now-tiny heart was pounding in his chest. He couldn't believe he was flying!
It was then that he spotted Eduard in a tree not far off. His heart sank. He'd nearly forgotten all about him in the excitement of the fact that he could fly. He darted back and forth a few feet at the time between Heather and him, but then went off in a new direction. He could circle back to Eduard once he'd said goodbye to Heather.
He dived so he was level with her. "I need to be going for real now... but... I do want to tell you thank you."

Heather felt lighter than her feathers to see Trick so happy, she flew up to a low branch of a nearby, leafless tree. She fluffed her feathers a little and gave a head bob to mean as a nod. "You're very welcome, okay, but stay safe. If you ever need me, I'm with the Earth Circle. If you ever stop by the grove, tell them you're looking for Heather and they'll come get me." she ruffled her feathers once more and ran her beak through them. Shifting so much was making her uncomfortable in her own skin, but there were always side affects she supposed.

He gave a head-bob as well. "I'll be sure to stop by sometime - goodbye, Heather."
With that, he flew off. He circled around the camp, flying over the cabins and then to the forest and lake. Then, he came back to the main road and landed in a branch just above Eduard's head. Quickly, he shifted back and let himself down a few branches to sit with Eduard.
"Still not sure how I feel about the flying thing," he said untruthfully. Oh, he did know how he felt about it. He knew he loved it. "You were watching me, weren't you?"

--------Eduard felt the slightest presence of another but it quickly disappeared making him a bit unnerved. He felt out with the roots of the trees and grass to search for the source of his concern but whatever it was that alerted his sense of caution was either gone or a brilliant master of stealth.
--------He rolled his eyes as Trick threw a flourish into his dive. It was foolish, yes, but sadly was not out of character for his flamboyant and mischievous cousin. Trick eventually came back over to him and settled down in human form in the tree.
--------Looking up at Gavriel he gave him a stern glare. "Of course I was watching you, Trick. For all I knew she was planning to kill you. And don't give me the 'she was actually very nice' spiel. You don't give that amount of trust to anyone after so short of a time. Ever." He emphasized the last word.

Gavriel rolled his eyes at his cousin. He was far too stern for Gavriel's liking at times. "Look, she was nice - and I was distrustful at first," he spoke in annoyed Russian. "It was just that she was another shifter and what was I supposed to do? Attack her? Run away? I may be a thief but I'm not rude."
He then deflated slightly and sighed, "Oh, you're probably right. As usual."

--------Eduard let his head rest against the trunk of the tree, it's presence helping him to calm down a bit, his frustration draining away. "Look, I'm not reprimanding you for talking to her," he explained. "I'm just upset with the amount of trust you gave her. You jumped of a building!" He still could not believe that idiocy of that action. If he had been wounded it would be beyond terrible on account of their lack of ability to acquire medical supplies as well as they mutual lack of knowledge concerning medical care.

Leaning his head against the bark of the tree trunk, he laughed. "It was just a bit of fun. I wouldn't have died. I've jumped off of tall buildings before - and look at me now, hm?" he jumped up to stand on the branch, squinting his eyes to west. The sun was beginning to set.
"We should get back to one of the stashes. It's getting late."

--------Eduard shook his head and sighed. One of these days Trick having 'just a bit of fun' would get one or both of them killed. He never cared much for risks and ever since coming to Sangvene the risks were more and more threatening to their well-being or even lives. They need to live by caution, but that was one thing Trick never got the hang of.
--------"South East tonight. We've been North for too many days and the it's not far from here." He closed his eyes for a moment, pressing a hand against the bark of the tree's trunk. Opening his eyes again he said, "We need to hurry, the forest feels unsafe, like something dark is moving about." With ease he swung down from the branch, sure footing in his landing. "Nothing new. Usual death camp status."
