Description
"Well, I always get some sort of..De-Jae-vu whenever i go past the stables in the cavalry wing of the castle...maybe I was a part of that in a past life, who knows. I dont feel that comfortable around them much anymore...maybe that could have also been my undoing? I know the history of this kingdom quite well, and i know there have been many chariot and cavalry battles in the long past...so maybe durring one of those times, my death was caused in one of the battles? Only the gods know I suppose."A sly smile crept on her lips before she scratched her hair and meandered off, feeling an urge to go and visit the stables for ol' time sake.

North: Woah... *The wind teenager stares at her with wide eyes as she describes her "past life".* That sounds totally wicked... D'jou really ride a griffin?

Cyclone: she chuckled "I did when i was younger, but as I grew older, i felt more and more uncomfortable around them, but I learned to live with it. After all, I still must learn and ride them, yes?" she gave a small smirk. "In the past, im sure something happened to make me feel this way now, but who knows."

North: *The wind teenager continues to stare at her in unabashed awe and admiration. That is until he realizes he is staring. He coughs and looks away quickly.* Uh... heh heh... Sorry... F-for... Y'know staring... Um... *North offers up his hand and says.* Yeah so, I'm North. Or as I'm sure I'll be called henceforth, "The guy with the size ten foot in his mouth"...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Cyclone: *she chuckled and took his hand, and shook it firmly as if a very well-rounded nobleman. Surely the handshake of a ruler.* no need to be so polite you know, none the less, im charmed to meet you, Sir North. Im Cyclone, but Cye is fine. *chuckled with her challenging characterized smirk. Placing her hands on her hips she flipped a strand of her bangs from her eyes with a quick flick of her head.* What brings ya up to my clouds? or was it just the story telling? *she teased*
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
North: *He smiles at her amiable nature and shakes her hand as firmly as a being made out of compressed air can. Noticing that she was using an honorific for him, and remembering what his parents had taught him about royal etiquette, he replies confidently.* Pleasure to meet you as well Lady Cye. *Cyclone? It was so odd. He could have sworn he had heard that name before. Like something he had forgotten in a class or was told via the news. Still he shakes these thoughts free as he realizes she had just asked him a question. He grins a little at her tease and responds honestly.* I was getting a little homesick. *He looks around quietly and gestures to the clouds.* This place reminds me of my kingdom. Where I grew up. *North then jams his hands into his coat pockets and smirks.* Although the excellent storytelling is certainly a bonus I did not expect.

Cyclone: *with her arms crossed, she rose an eyebrow, still with her prized smirk. Her wings were tucked to her back tightly, gleaming from being polished and freshly manicured, surely she was no commoner of the wind chaser species.* Well we wind chasers are the mightiest of the skies, though we do take our pride in our history. *her words were humbling, but still respectfully prideful.* I will have to admit, your species seems familiar, yet strange to me. I dont mean to be rude with it, I just find it fascinating. *she spoke as she walked around him, a puzzled look on her smooth face. Her hand was delicately placed on her chin in her intrigued expression. Once her circle was finished, she stood in front of him once more.*
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
North: wind chasers?... Wait a second. *Those words had clicked with something inside his mind and brought the sudden realization of who she was to the foreground. His eyes widen then squint at her as though he were trying to discern something from far away.* Cyclone? As in Princess Cyclone? As in Princess of the Wind kingdom Cyclone?! THAT'S you?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Cyclone: pffft, the one and only *she chuckled, flipping her bangs with two fingers to show the crown across her forehead, hidden by her bangs. with a slight sigh, he closed her eyes as her smirk faded* though im not all proud of it, in all honesty.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
North: *He blinks several times at her odd change of attitude. A curious and confused look passes over his face.* Y-you aren't?... Um.... *North looks away quietly for a second as he mulls something over in his mind. Finally he comes to a conclusion and looks back at her.* Hey... I know you just met me and.... You really don't know anything about me... Wow this sounded a lot more reassuring in my head. Look I can tell there's something about this that you'd like to get off your chest and... I'm a good listener. *He holds his hands out in a small unsure shrug and grins with a laughably cheesy smile.*
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Cyclone: *looked back at him with a small speck of a smile with a sigh. her shrug lasted for a few moments before speaking* I dont mind talking about it, so I guess I shall. Ahem. *coughed a little bit* You see, my father was captain of the royal family's guard, but when danger struck on the land, my land's countrymen were called to aid the humans. During that time, My father met and fell in love with my mother, a human. which..in turn..leeeeeed toooo.. *points to herself* fast forwordingggg, im about the age of, i wanna say..5? 6 maybe? Anyway, another danger arrived but it was against the humans, this led my parents to be separated, because the relationship was taboo and outlawed. For my sake, since i looked the most like the wind racers, i was kept in the kingdom, which i never got to see my mother again. Fearing my father would lose his rank and job, he could no longer see my mother, which she understood and did what needed to be done back on the land. When the threats were getting closer and closer, the royal guard was sent out to defend. I was placed into the castle with a few other children of the army. Time passed and the royal couple was taking a liking to us children. The queen was pregnant at the time and was eagerly expecting her child. Once the threat was halted for a short time, the fathers came back to take the children home, I had to stay because my father couldent leave yet, and he was still fighting, Leaving me alone with the royals. *she seemed a bit emotionless at this point when telling the story, as if it was a grim time in her life*...It was a long time before i saw my father again...durring the time he was gone, the queen's baby was still-born, leaving her in terrible grief as any mother would be....*she paused for a bit to regain herself from a mind block as she did her best to try to remember, it was difficult.*

North: *North absentmindedly conjures up a ball of compressed air and sits on it as one would sit in a chair. From there he doesn't take his attention off of her, listening intently to her troubles and nodding quietly as she spoke. When she reaches the mental block he slowly reclines on his air powers and waits patiently for her to continue. He had a feeling a few of these memories might be painful and he had prepared himself for the long haul. As he waits for her to resume his left hand makes a few swirling motions signalling another use of his powers. With a small influx of wind a second chair made of tangible air appears next to her. North figures he should probably offer her the seat. It was only polite and she WAS a princess for globs sake. Still, despite the well kept look and obvious training of a noble she carried herself.... Differently. It was difficult to describe and North was really looking forward to some more insight so he could get a better read on her.*
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Cyclone: *taking the seat she was offered, she nodded in thanks before remembering her place* ...After the queen was devastated by losing the child, she ran to me as if i was her child....i wanted nothing to do with them...they were strict and too orderly for me, i would get scolded regularly for the most mundane things...but thats besides the point. *sighs* My father eventually comes back and was going to take me home, but then he received news that the enemy had breached the walls and they needed instant reinforcements...*she started to get choked up. clasping her fists together and placing one fist on her chest. Lowering her head so her hair covered her purple eyes, veering the other direction.* ...He hugged me and held me close, saying he could be back for me. Then the king came over and asked to take 'temporary' fathering duties while he was away...my father hesitantly agreed and then left in the dead of night...that was the last i saw him. As time went on, i grew up in their care. went through harder and harder training every day as if i was training to become the best at...well...everything. But thats impossible, trying to do some things is physically impossible..but the king would make me test it...which usually ended up in me breaking a bone or something...and i would get complete blame...*she mumbled a little bit*...and get scolded when i didnt live up to his exceptions...to him...i was always a disappointment. *her mumbling ended as she continued to speak* ...He would force me to address them as mother and father, and when i refused or if i didnt cooperate....i would get chained...*her arms moved into a very tight folded position, digging her fingers into her arms, almost to puncture them* the queen would teach me to be a 'proper lady' ....and im nothing of the sort if im truly being who i am. She would not stand for it, and would abuse me when i didnt do her bidding....Every night...i would stay up and hope that one day my father would come back....one day....*her expression then started to change to anger*...then....then a letter was received in the mail, it was addressed to me, but the king took it and read it...i didnt see it at first, but i found it in his desk, he was hiding it from me. I read it...and it said that....that...*she couldent help but extend her large elegant wings in sorrowful rage and crumble into a ball on the seat, folding her top half to her knees* ...he died in action on the front lines...leading me to forever be with the royal family because they became my sole guardians.....everything was a haze since then.....but as i grew older, i began to fight back...and they have learned to keep some distance...but somethings about them...wont ever change...*flashbacks came flooding into her head and made her cringe hard, gripping her hair. With that, her back story ended.*

North: *The wind teenager listens as her story gets progressively sadder and she becomes more distraught. By the time she finishes he feels a lump in his throat and a tightening in his chest from the sheer emotional backlash of her ordeal. And if it hurt him, a listener, he could only imagine what she was going through. Slowly and hesitantly, almost without realizing he was doing it, North reaches out towards her and softly places a reassuring hand on her shoulder.* I..... I don't know what to say... I'm so sorry for one.... I don't.... I don't quite know what it's like to lose..... um..... Is.... Is there anything I can do?.....
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Cyclone: *she sat up and scratched her head, regaining herself and sighed, regaining her composure*...its..its alright..its in the past for the most part..i try not to let it effect me now, but its hard, ya know? *sighs* i wont forget it, but i dont want to endure it again..*shakes her head* whats done is done...there is nothing that can be done about it.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
North: *He nods slowly and smiles a little at her outlook.* Well I've got to say you're handling this a lot better than most people probably would have... And I KNOW you're handling it better than I would have. *North floats into an upright position banishing his chair as he does. He stretches lightly and looks out at the landscape of clouds before them. His smile widens a bit and he looks back at her.* Wanna go for a fly?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Cyclone: *stands up and swirls her hand over her wind seat and sucks it up to make a vortex out of it before dispersing it till it disappeared* A good fly might be a good idea to clear my mind. *she nodded and fully unfledged her wings, they were large and perfectly maintained. Brightly white and gleaming, she smirked before crouching down. as her wings pointed up, with one large powerful push of her wings, she was beamed into the sky. the strength in that take off was easily known to have taken years to attempt to do, and she does it with ease as if it were nothing, truly exhibiting her wing's strength from the years of discipline and hardcore training.*
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
North: *He watches, mesmerized as she takes off like a shot out into the sky. She was amazing. An exceptional flyer... Flawless... North smirks to himself and rolls his shoulders a few times.* Two can play that game. *He aims himself towards where she had flown, gathers the power of his ancestors, and releases it all at once. A shockwave of compressed air thunders around him as he is flung into flight. He grins as the wind wraps around him, accelerating him as well as moving with him. Soon he finds himself coming up on Cyclone and smirks at seeing her. He begins pouring more will into his powers as he attempts to catch her.*
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Cyclone: *smirks as she is spinning slowly in bliss as she was propelling higher and higher. a small smirk lined her lips with her eyes closed. she knew he was catching up. once he reached hear her eye level, she opened one of her amethyst eyes and grinned* watch this. *she chuckled* dont try this at home, kiddo~ *she teased before her speed slowed down till she was almost at a complete stop before she tucked in her wings, closed her eye once more, and started falling head first to the earth, her speed increasing faster and faster, counting precisely till the moment was right. as she continues to fall, a vortex of wind started to glossily wrap around her, gleaming in pristine spirals*
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
North: *He grinned lightly at her jab about his age as he watched her fall towards the ground. As the vortex of air begins to form around her North stares intently at her. He certainly didn't doubt her abilities at this point... But she was falling very fast. And no amount of reassurance could stop this gnawing feeling of wory slowly seeping into his gut.*
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Cyclone: *within seconds of collision, she was 1ft. from the ground before her wings re-opened, and she was propelling forewords. the front of her body gently gliding along the top of the wheat grass. When she changed her position, the wind around her snapped, causing a loud and bold sonic boom. the ripple of fine air propelled in a large growing ring around her. With a smirk she continued to glide in bliss before arching her wings and started to slowly lift back into the air*
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
North: *North laughs with elation and relief upon seeing her pull up just in time. And that sonic boom... That was quite a sight. As she flies back up towards him North smirks, cracks his knuckles, and says in a teasing tone.* Yeah so not impressed. I can do that too.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Cyclone: *smirks and teases right back as she glided beside him on her back. her arm twirled and snapped, she created a whip made out of wind and snapped it* dont make me make you take that back *she laughed*
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
North: *He rolls his eyes and smiles playfully.* Just step back and watch the master at work. *Truth be told he had never tried something like this. Releasing control of his flight and then regaining it seconds before hitting the ground. But he was determined to try because.... He really felt like he needed to impress her. Even a little bit. Slowly North tilts back and falls through the air, his eyes closed and in silent concentration. At about halfway down a pure white jet stream appears behind him marking his path.*
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Cyclone: *she watched, stationary. flapping her wings calmly as she watched him closely* hmm...*she noticed the jet behind him and raised a single brow intrigued.*
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
North: *He concentrates. Listens to the wind as it rushes past him. Feels the warmth of the currents as they mingle with the cold air surging up to meet him. He could see why she seemed to enjoy doing this. It felt amazing. Everything about it was.... He was forgetting something. North opens his eyes and instantaneously his eyes widen with the sudden realization that he had stayed in his dive for too long. With the ground about to meet him all he can do is get out one word before impact.* ...crap... *With a thunderous "thoom" North smashes into the ground. Cracks fly along the dried earth and a large cloud of dust flies up around his crash site.*
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Cyclone: *gasped as she could tell that he was not going to pull up in time, the sheer impact would hurt any being severely. Her eyes widened more as she dive-bombed down at great speeds to see if he was alright. As she rushed down, she remembered when she was fighting a very very very wicked creature and had to slam it to the ground to vanquish its hands from her neck. It worked, but caused serious damage to herself as well, so the worry grew more if he was alright or not* NORTH!!!! *she then landed next to him with a similar boom sound, but she landed in a crouched position. A crater formed under her with a few sparks flying out words as she quickly stood up and ran to his impact site*
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
North: *As the dust slowly settles around his crash site she can see what is left of him. Only his suit in crumpled heap. Almost like he disintegrated upon impact. Suddenly wind can be heard swirling around the jumbled pile of clothes and they appear to be slowly inflating. Soon they are about the size of a normal man and with a slight pop North's condensed air form appears. He blinks tiredly and coughs a few times expelling a couple puffs of excess dirt from his form.* That.... hurt...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Cyclone: you alright, dude? *she closed her wings and ran to his side to see if he was alright* I know im not familiar with your species' anatomy, so from my view it seemed that you didnt get hurt, but im guessin' ya did? 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
North: *He grins a little as she helps him to his feet.* Puh-lease. It'll take a lot more than that to put me down for the count. *North rolls his shoulders a little and brushes off some of the dirt from the from of his suit.* Nothing permanent anyway. Thanks for the concern though. *He smiles again and takes a step forward. He gasps a little in pain and nearly stumbles. His hands grasp his knee showing he did indeed sustain some injury from his fall.*
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Cyclone: *she saw him stumble from his knee's problem and quickly leaned forewords, catching him in her large wing* caaaaareful there dude. *still holding him with her wing to keep him stable she started to examine his knee* i think ya might have sprang it or something. I think its physically impossible to break it, am i correct? though im not sure, i could be wrong.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
North: Y-yeah... B-but I'm fine. Really it's not a big deal. *He pulls away from her and floats a little ways up into the air.* See? Nothing to worry about.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Cyclone: *crossed her arms and rose a brow* if your fine, then stand. *she pointed to the ground to test if he was completely alright* by the way dude, ya shouldent go tryin stunts like that. those take years to learn, its not easy to do...you dont wanna know how many times ive broken my wings learning how to do that
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
North: *He blinks a few times then slowly floats down to the ground. Hesitating for a second he places his feet gingerly against the dirt road. Pain shoots up through his leg causing him to wince a bit but he attempts to keep the charade going.* S-see? I can stand. I can totally stand. So it really isn't a bi-hnn... Big deal.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Cyclone: ohreally? *with the single brow still raised, she gave a small devilish smirk. fluttering back a few feet and gestured to herself* then walk here. -w-
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
North: *He stares at where she has landed for a second as he weighs his options and the consequences of his actions. Unfortunately stubborn pride shines through and he takes a step forward on his good foot. No reaction. He takes another step with his bad leg. He nearly topples over as his face screws up in pain. His hands clutch his knee and he hisses to himself.* Grrrr dammit.....
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Cyclone: *before he hit the ground, she caught him and chuckled with her devilish smirk* see? told ya. -^- you shouldent push yourself to do this stuff, you'd be insane to do that. tsk tsk tsk *shook her head*
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
North: *He glances up at her with a reserved look on his face and sighs a little.* Alright fine. So maybe I'm not alright. It's still not a big deal. I can totally fly wherever i need to go.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Cyclone: pffft that doesent mean its gonna heal right -^- ya gotta get that checked out.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
North: *He scowls a little and pulls away from her, floating a couple feet away.* I said I was fine and I am fine. *North turns away from her crossing his arms over his chest with an angry frown.*
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Cyclone: *rolled her eyes* oooook then, have it your way. *flapped her wings and began to fly silently up into the clouds, soon then hidden in them.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
North: *The wind teenager stays down there for several minutes before sighing and floating up after her. Soon he breaches the clouds and looks around for her.* Uhh... Cye? You still here?
