"Damn it," Shinan said to herself, having heard the whistle. "That freak must have someone after me. Well, I guess I am kinda tired for now." Shinan found a nice spot by a tree to lie down.

The Fospirit huffed and turned back to Marci. "She heard, huh? Her hearing's a bit more accute than an Amril's," Marci said.

Shinan fell asleep under the tree.

Shinan didn't sleep long. It was only a catnap. After that, she was off again to find a victim.

Enad'li's ears perked when she heard Shinan start moving again. She was still invisible and followed silently. Being a Ghost type had its advantages.

"Heh. There's no way I can't tell you're following me," Shinan said, standing to face her.

Enad'li became visible, her teeth barred.

Enad'li rarely spoke. She wasn't threatening; she was just in a defensive mode should Shinan attack.

"Tonight's a full moon," she said, mostly musing to her self. "The moon invigorates me. If you choose to battle me and you can't beat me before the full moon, it will be your end."

Enad'li backed up, but kept her teeth barred. She could tell from Shinan's aura that she didn't stand much of a chance at the moment. "Enli," she said before turning and running back to Marci.

ooc: Dang. I had a plot twist planned, but it required Enad'li to stay there. It wouldn't have killed her. Oh well, this can still work out.
Shinan mewwed to herself, then followed Enad'li until she found Marci again. "I knew that thing was your lacky," she said with a hiss.

Marci growled lowly, much like a wolf. "She's a friend," the girl said in a low, menacing voice.

"Like I care," Shinan said. Suddenly, her ears, fur, and hair turned a pure white. "Please, help me! Get her out of me!" She turned back to her normal dark color. "Let that one slip out," she said, looking at the horizon. "Almost sundown. Purrrr-fect." She was sure she could hold them back until the full moon came out.

Marci blinked. She thought the aura on Shinan had been strange. Though the pacifism of the Amirls was strong in her, she was letting the Tunder out. The full moon would also affect the vampire in her a bit.

Shinan stared them down until the full moon came out. "Finally. Now, you will both fall right here." Her eyes began to glow and she became berserker, attacking them with everything she had.

Marci put up a shield of Shadow and Radiance that easily blocked Shinan. She'd practiced this technique for more than 5,000 years, so it wouldn't be easy to break especially with mere physical attacks.

Shinan realized she couldn't get through the shield and turned her attention to Enad'li, only to find herself unable to move just as she was about to strike. "Wh-what is this?"
"I guess you've never faced a master waterbender before," Mithos said, stepping up towards them, hand held towards Shinan. "During the full moon, a water bender is much stronger. Some are even so strong, they can bend the water in someone else's body. An art I call blood-bending. You're completely under my control in more ways than one." He raised his hand and she floated into the air. "You may be strong during a full moon, but I'm deadly."

Marci dropped the shield and fell to her knees. It was a drain on the small body to use the Ren'il.

"You don't have to worry," Mithos said to Marci. "As long as the full moon is out, she's completely under my control." Mithos was right about to finish Shinan off when she turned white again.
"Please, get the dark one out of me!"

"Sir, I think the darkness is possessing the light!" Marci said.

"It would seem so," Mithos said. "If we can figure someway to get that darkness out before the full moon goes, I can let her go. I can only blood bend like this during the full moon."

Marci nodded and summoned the incense and candles she needed. She drew a large 7 pointed star in the sand and then a circle around it then placed a candle at each point. She lit several sticks of incense and put them in holders, arranging them in the triangle on the outside o the circle. "Can you move her to the middle?"

"Easily," Mithos said, moving Shinan to the middle of the circle, keeping her paralyzed with bloodbending.

Marci got on her knees, folded her hands, closed her eyes and lifted her face toward the moon. As she began to speak, she began to glow faintly and her hair grew and became silver.
"Gikkuss Rauho, shos phursin haus luun phissussuk lw aun uzol sphoros. Dumin, uno'l, lunoi, wi'le; whausuzur os os, phluausu ruluausu shos phursin frim oss jroph. Is kiusn's lulinj shuru aunk os rniws shaus."
The candles began to flare and the smoke from the incense grew to a large cloud, encircling Shinan.
"Is chiisus si mauru shos phursin oss hiss aunk mauru shum ki lauk shonjs. Is nuuks si ji laucr si whuru os caumu frim. Amun."
As the ritual ended, the candles sputtered out and the cloud of smoke from the incense instantly disappeared. Marci gasped, then passed out, on the brink of death, but she couldn't die because the spell on her. Enad'li gently laid next to Marci.

Shinan's appearance was that of her dark form, but she wasn't struggling to break free of Mithos' hold anymore. "Thank you," she said. "For so long, that evil one possessed me."

Enad'li had Marci wrapped in her tails, gently stroking the girl's forehead with one of her paws.
