Ember winced as she used her wings to jump backwards and up. Those earlier wounds were really going to complicate things. Shad to start thinking fast if she wanted to get out of this alive. Remembering what she'd done before he attacked, She concentrated on that energy, finding that she had enough sand found to work with, though this would be tricky. Willing that small portion to form a spike, she sent itflying from deep underground. With a small bit of speed it came to her. 'now its as fair as possible'

As the horse moved backwards, the wave of sand split into three parts. One moved to the left of her, one to the right, and one above. They met again behind the horse as quickly as they had split. "It's over now, "Gaara said darkly.

Ember lookedaround all her sides. As much as she hated to think it, the human was right, it was over, though she still had one very slim chance that could, though the chanes were slim to none. With as much energy as she could, Ember used the sand she had, created a missile like object and shot it towards the male. 'I was still right though.' Dasuke looked in the direction Gaara and the mare had gone, a gut feeling told her he'd be back soon. 'It's over' (do your thing gaara lol)

Gaara smiled cruelly. He raised his hand for the final attack, "Sand Burial." The sand closed in around the horse, and blood sprayed out, raining onto the ground. One moment to late Gaara realized the sand missile. If he hadn't had his automatic self-defense sand, it might have killed him, but instead it just grazed his arm. Then the sand armor started peeling away from the wound, revealing his unharmed flesh. He snickered, "Good effort, I'll give you that." Then he turned from the mutilated corpse and headed back to where Dasuke was.

Dasuke looked up, noticing Gaara return she smirked. The look in his eyes suggested he won, and had fun doing so. Though she noticed that part of his sand armor had come off one of his arms. 'Looks like someone had fun. Though i'm surprised she got a hit, what happened?'

Gaara glanced at her, "She attacked right when I gave my finishing blow. The smell of blood got to me, and I was distracted." He molded more sand over the one area, and soon it looked like the rest of his skin. He smiled, he had finally quenched his bloodlust. But there was still the problem of Dasuke's wound, though he didn't want her to know he was worried about it.

Dasuke nodded as her eyes wandered over to the knife sticking out of the ground by the hole. 'well this should be interesting to watch.' she mumbled. Keisha nodded to Ryuu. 'Please be careful.' Dasuke's eyes caught sight of a few dark, menacing looking clouds slowly heading their way. 'Joy, looks like we'll be stuck out here in a storm.' Her right arm twitched slight as thunder sounded loudly through area. (odd ik, she's not afraid of Gaara but is unnerved by storms lol)

Ryuu quickly climbed up the rope; exerting as much power as he could. He finally made it to the top and pulled himself over, then he peered down into the hole at Keisha. "Your turn, just grab on and I'll pull you up." (hes so nice, isnt he=p) Gaara's smile faded. He wasn't fond of storms either; he wasn't scared of them, but there was something about the rain and the way the clouds blocked the moon that annoyed him. He slumped under a tree, "Guess we'll just have to sit it out." Then he forced a cloud of sand over his and Dasuke's head. He was worn out from his fights, but he used what was left of his energy to protect them from the rain that he knew was coming.

Keisha nodded her head, grabbing onto the rope she looked up. 'I got it.' Dasuke used a little amount of energy to create a stone wall behind their backs. Propping her right leg up, Dasuke leaned her head against the wall with her right arm on her knee. With a sigh she closed her eyes. The earlier events had worn her out and she was probably doing herself no good making the wall behind their backs. Soon enough a light pitter pat could be heard as the storm rolled in.

Mixed with the Pitter-Pat of the rain, there were suddenly Heavy Bootsteps at an exaggerated rate, coming closer and closer to the two. A figure wearing a fine long coat came around the wall, and stopped upon seeing them. He scratched his head.
"I didn't expect anybody else to be out here. Well... This storm seems like it'll be pretty bad. If it's no trouble, you mind if I hunker down here?" Mordy asked, still standing awkwardly at the end of the wall.

Hearing a voice that wasn't gaara's come from out of almost no where caused Dasuke to shoot up to sit up more. Though the action caused pain to jolt through her side as a little more blood seeped out. Wincing slightly as her right barely twitched, she glared at the unknown male. 'Who are you?' Dasuke held her right arm lightly over her wound as she went back to leaning against the wall, unsure of what to think of the newcomer. (she's only slightly wary of new people, she'll warm up to him eventually.)

Ryuu grabbed the wire with steady hands and started pulling with all his force. The wire moved towards him slowly but steadily. Gaara turned his head to face the newcomer. He was actually glad of the intrusion, at least then he wouldn't be alone with Dasuke. He kept a wary eye on the stranger, remaining silent as he watched for any possible threat. (lol Gaara still doesn't wanna get close to Dasuke, he doesn't want to be hurt)

Mordecai looked at the pair and said awkwardly, "I'm a traveler, mainly. I do odd jobs. I had been looking for a good stallion to tell my employer of, and to mark said stallion with some red paint, if possible. However, despite an entire day of searching, I haven't found a single equestrian creature.
As it were, I ask only shelter until the rain alleviates, at which point I will part if you wish, or do any tasks you might have as repayment. My name is Mordecai. You may call me Mordy." He finished, now seeming slightly less self annoyed, but still feeling quite like an intruder. It then occured to him that there was one other thing he ought to explain.
"The blade is merely for protection, I wish no harm with it."
(For the record, his attitude will change drastically depending upon his relation to whomever he is speaking to. Similar to me, though probably slightly more exaggerated.)

Keisha looked up at ryuu as he slowly pulled her up. 'Please be careful, Ryuu.' Dasuke stared at a tree all the way across the feild as her mind wandered back to all of those years ago...back to when she was 14 and her parents tried to kill her. Now she could have sworn she thought she saw her parents again with that same killing look in their eyes. Unknowingly her right hand fell to her sword hilt on the ground next to her as she continued seeing the people she was betrayed by most in the world.

Seeing Dasuke lost in the past made Gaara nervous; he put a hand on her shoulder to bring her back to reality. It was not a good time to be lost in the past, as he was very unwelcoming to strangers, and Dasuke was the only person he felt he could trust, even if only a little. "I think we're fine here," Gaara said bluntly. (sorry, Gaara doesn't like ppl in general lol)
Ryuu held his hand out to Keisha as she neared the top. "Here."
