"No, I suppose they wouldn't," she sighed, leaning hopefully against him. "But what if we're discovered to be gone?" She admired the beautiful wings that filled the room. Elu spread her own, so small in comparaison. The undersides were marked with a unique purple-blue, the same as the locks of hair beneath her dominant white. Her eyes locked with his. Maybe it wasn't her need for the sky that was strongest right now. It was certainly still there...but another presence called for her attention too.

"They won't, we'll be back before they notice." Rill said, confidently. He just wanted to be out and about, home again. But with her, nothing would ever be the same, now that he had her. Everythign would be better. "Shall we be off?" He said, seeing the stars reflecting off her eyes, making her more gorgeous than ever.

"Mm, yes. But be careful with that foot," she warned taking his arm. The night was ready to take them into her arms and they were ready to plunge into it. Thrill built up inside her, bubbling up. She was eager to shift into her little kestrel form and soar with him. She opened the door before them. She decided to wait until he was safely off the ground until she shifted. His foot still worried her.

Rill looked at Elu, her face full of the glory of the night sky, longing filling her eyes. He looked up at the sky, black, starry and ready for a flight. He went to the edge of the balcony, spread his wings and launched off with his good foot. It wasn't as powerful as it would be with both of them, but it was good enough. He made a couple circles in his human form before he shifted to his eagle form. He lat out a cry of freedom as he circled higher and higher. When he felt he had a good warm-up, he dived, going back down to wait for Elu.

Elu made a quick drop from the balcony, wings tucked against her. She shifted immediately and spread her wings just before the ground met her beak. She pulled hereself up to hover beside the majestic golden eagle. Come! she called to him, climbing higher and and further from the mansion. She could tell how much more at home Rill was in the sky. He seemed even more powerful in this power, and at the same time, more gentle and intelligent.

Of course, Rill called back. Up and up they climbed, he felt the air around him, and the lights of the city below. The mansion was only a speck of lights now, as they sped off into the night. Do you know how to dive? Rill asked, wanting to go high.

You can't be serious, she laughed, Of course I can! She did her best to match his speed. She wasn't strong, but she was both quick and agile. The little kestrel was dwarfed by the eagle, but felt so safe by his side.

Wil-BURRRRRH (gnh...) sniffed the cheese Lorne offerred. On the one hand, it was food. On the other hand, it was Lorne. Settling for compromise, he ate the cheese but pretended not to.

Rill circled up and up until it got colder and colder and the air was much thinner than below. Then he cut off his upward spiral and dropped, tucking his wings into his body, going for speed. Fifty feet from the ground, he opened his wings and caught a breeze, flew lightly to land on a tree and wait for Elu. Fun, huh?

Elu dove after the eagle, plummeting further than even he had. It seemed as it she would collide with the tree branches, but she deftly avoided them. The kestrel grew, shifting with arms outstretched to embrace the eagle. Her wings snapped out, pulling her human body skyward again for a moment. They sunk to the ground, the great bird in the arms of the moon-haired girl. She allowed him a moment to shift before she pinned him to the ground, locking eyes in the silence.

Lorne almost smiled at the donre, but remembered their relationship. He continued to eat his sandmiches with a stolid expression. Nothing had transpired.

Rill, suddenly pinned to the ground, looked up at this girl who had tackled him to the ground and shifted to his human form. "What is this?" He asked, eyes locked on hers. He was not sure if this was playful, or if there was something deeper about it. Either way, he grabbed her arms firmly, but gently, and rolled over until he was on top, then he let go and stood up. "What was that?" He asked, playfully.

The kestrel lay in the leaves, looking up at the eagle. Even if it was her desire, she could never overpower the eagle. "I guess that for you to decide, hm?" she replied, dark eyes never leaving his. The soft night wind moved his hair in the night and the moonlight danced across his face. He was hers, and he was beautiful, but she made no effort to move, content in the fallen leaves and soft grasses.

Rill was suddenly nervous. What was about to happen? She looked happy, and she was, he could tell, but he was nervous. What to do? He felt suddenly embarassed and wanted to avoid the situation. He had never hed any experience with this, and he wasn't ready, he didn't think. His face turned a bright red as he stuttered, "W-we s-s-shoul-ld get back t-t-to the r-room..." He turned his face away, for fear embarassment. "M-maybe...?" He saw how comfortable she looked and gave in. "Whatever..." He muttered to himself, as he lay down on the grass, next to her, but not to close, for fear fo the blood returning to his face, but not too far away, so as not to seem like he was having a hard time.

Elu looked over at Rill. "We could go back...if you wanted..." She looked up at the sky and spread her arms out beside her. "It's just such a shame to waste such a beautiful night inside." She sighed, bringing one arm back in to rest on her belly, and reaching out with the other so take his hand. "You don't mind, do you? Staying out a bit longer?" She figured her moment and oppurtunity were past, but that didn't mean they couldn't stay out in the night.
