((Yeah, I read everything. Jack was outside, too. He met the phoenix out there.))
Jack saw Vlad covering Rosalind to protect her, and thought to himself, You're not getting out of our fight that easily... Looks like I have no choice. He raised his arm. "Third Repentence," He started his spell quietly, gradually rising in volume. "To protect thy friends and heirs. Flame which cannot harm. Fire whom hath tamed itself; I call on thee, Serithu!" Flames poured out of his arms, shaping into a lion. It obviously hurt Jack, as he was grimacing and shaking. The lion was formed, and said, "My leige... Who shall I protect?" Jack pointed at Vlad and Rosalind. The lion nodded, saying, "I see..." It wrapped itself around them, burning away the plant matter but leaving them unscathed. Jack was a different matter. He was laying on the ground, from exhaustion and the fact he just summoned a demigod. That he was alive was amazing.

[And, thus, we see the character arch. My dear Kechero, I should hate to provoke such thoughts of anger in you...] Rosalind blinked into the inky black. "Vlad? Who... who did that?" She received no response. "Vladmir, are you alright?" The tree groaned, half of its root system having been destroyed. It began a slow fall behind where she sat. The shadow that had been cast was removed. In the pale moonlight, Rosalind saw a figure splayed on the ground. "Gods..."

Vlad struggled to re-solidify. The puddles of water on the ground twitched in an effort to re-combine, only moving a few inches closer, then undoing that progress with the utter lack of strength. Was it going to be curtains for Vlad?
(Dah-dah-DAAAAAAAAH!)

[Not the drapery!] Rosalind was torn between helping the one who had hated her and he that hurt her.

He began to turn to vapour, being separated by the heat left in Serithu's wake. A wisp of a voice could be heard on the air;
"Rosalind... You're... alive... I'm... glad..."
That was they last they heard of him... Well, for awhile, at least...
(Not all hope is lost...)

Rosalind rushed blindly to Jack's side, doing as best she could to tend to the burns. She brought up aloe from the earth to sooth the scarred skin. Try as she might, though, she could do little to prevent his pain, for the salt of her tears stung in the wounds. "Vladmir is..." She didn't have the heart to answer Jason's question.

Jason falls to his knees "no no no...noo" fire forms at his shoulder blades into wings, fire goes up his arms and legs, his hair turns to fire, he then looks at Jack with anger on his face "what happened?"

"Please," pleaded Rosalind, "The fault is mine. "He was trying to save me."

(Evaporated water can re-form, provided the proper conditions... You mortals call it precipitation, or condensation.)

Mobius Nightshade (Evaporated water can re-form, provided the proper conditions... You mortals call it precipitation, or condensation.) ["Don'tcha know that it's a fool, who plays it cool by making his world a little colder..."] Rosalind looked up to Jason. "It is."

[It is, The Beatles "Hey Jude" I know very little music besides The Beatles... (In all honesty, I know very little music in general. sweatdrop ) I thought it an interesting phrase. Alack, it is anti-global-warming awareness...] The girl looked down at her at her hands. "Disgusting." [I have an urge to carry on a Lady Macbeth-esque line from here, don't you?]

(Hmmm... While it is tempting, water vapour isn't exactly capable of producing Shakespearian lines. As for your taste in music, you know a bit more on your own, and there's the bands I introduced to you. You have a fair variety of music at your disposal.)
