Damn! Why did everyone get so offended by her? She wasn't talking to the gryphon, she was talking to Demon. "Fuck, It was just a slip of the tongue. Fuck, I know I have been called a male enough times in my life. And you are a tag-along whether you like it or not. Deal with it. I have no issue with you I just don't care what you think. At least I am honest right? I could lie to you and make you feel good about yourself while despising you. But I don't despise you. Now hurry the fuck over here and get ready to fly or something." Lily exhaled in a frusterated sigh at the end of her rant. She didn't apologize, that was the closest the gryphon would propably get to one though.

"Fine." /Well, panthers were right./ With her powerful hind legs, she propelled herself into the air, spreading her huge eagle wings wide, catching as much air as she could, gaining altitude. She flew in a wide circle around the beach. Below, she somewhat sensed smoke and fire and human screaming on this beach, a distant memory. "Are you coming, Demon? I would like to be there by nightfall so I can hunt before I sleep."

Demon listened to their bickering with little, almost no, interest. They were both being silly and touchy. Women. "Yes, we should reach the coast by nightfall and yes, I will be resuming lion form for the remainder of the evening. Most likely for a while- I will have little use for the form and I know you prefer walking over flying anyway." He finally replied to Lily's question. He Walked over to her, picked her up again, then with a grunt, took to the air. Holding Lily close, Demon raced up to the better air currents and set his wings in a stiff position, only turning them slightly from time to time to keep himself in the air and going the right way. Feeling disinclined to conversation at the moment and lulled by flying, Demon began to sing lightly under his breath- he wasn't the best singer in the world, but he wasn't half bad. "~Somewhere in the night, Inside my dreams you burn so bright, And I'm with you there and everything's alright. Somewhere in the night, before the darkness turns to light, Let me love you there, Somewhere in the night...~" And so on and so forth.

Lily almost snorted at first sound of the singing. Demon was singing and it was just ok. But. As Lily listened longer she began to like it, she realized that it wasn't about singing good, it was about the moment. Lily listened, becoming enraptured, slowly hummed along. She realized that she had come so far from her true self in those years she changed, she had even forgoten why she loved to sing.

"~On the day I walked away. All the blue rolled into grey. Now in the dark, All alone I lay. Should have stopped, But I could never stay! Oh somewhere in the night~" Demon carried on, his voice sounding happy at Lily's humming. It was a very beautiful song and meant to be sung in a duet, no less. "~Second chances I won't get, Wouldn't dare to hope. But everywhere I turn, I see your silhouette, And your love I never will forget! Somewhere in the night, Inside my dreams you burn so bright, And I'm with you there and everything's alright!~"

Before he knew it, the sky was beggining to grow dark. She whispered along the words now. "Layin beside you, lost in the feeling So glad you open my door Come with me Somewhere in the night we will know Everything lovers can know Youre my song Music too magic to... to... to end." She had trouble. She remembered, she used to sing with Streak. Just like this. She started humming along again, to hide her crying. She didnt want Demon to know that she was, especially when he made her so happy. She especially didn't want here beaky tag-along to know, she couldnt show her weakness to any old random gryphon. Before now... memories of Streak had never made her weak, the were a source of rage and streangth. Everything she thought she knew about herself and the world was changing, hell, they appeared to be going to another world.

((Kayla- Lily, you are singing a different song than Demon. FYI. He's singing the song by Scott Bakula. Not Barry Manilow. ^_^" Just thought I'd inform you. Though the one by Manilow is really pretty, too. Next time we are on at the same time remind me to send you the extended version of "Somewhere in the Night". I also have the piano score for it. <3 I love that song. Most people don't realize what an AMAZING singer Scott Bakula is. <3 I LOVE his voice. LOVE it. One of my favorite male vocalists of all time.))
Demon, especially in his dragon form, was highly attuned to the emotions of others. In his heart he could feel Lily's tears, but chose to not mention it. The brute knew how the tigress hated to admit any form of weakness. He just flew on, singing the song over and over again. It soothed him. Land appeared in the distance over a little while longer. "I'd say another hour or so." Demon interrupted his song to say, then resumed singing in his deep, but not altogether unmelodious voice.

((Hmm. Well, they look very similar to a quick glance... You will have to send me, yes. *To Demon* Lets hurry up and get to the island, all this waiting is... You shouldn't wait for the kid. Your are on a tighter schedule than he is yet you still find time to post.))

Land began to roll beneath his wings, and Demon banked to the right and headed inland and slightly north. Spying a herd of strange, deer-like creatures, the dragon growled softly, then came in for a landing, using the same tactics as before. The second Lily was on the ground and Demon had backed away, he assumed lion form with a stretch and a yawn. The brute was exhausted from the flight, and nodded to Lily. "If you're hungry, you'll most likely want to hunt yourself. I'm too tired and I am sure you have a lot of pent up energy. Be careful, though. The barbs on the ends of the deers' tails is poisonous, and they are bloody fast. I'm sure you can handle them, though." The lion flopped onto the ground and immediately set to bathing himself.

Lily noticed the creatures that were basicly deer. She realized that deer tasted much better than anyhting else she had eaten on her recent adventure to the beach. She realized she had came a long long way from the land that she came from. She would like to go back one day, just to make sure... Realizing that Demon was right, she did indeed have a lot of energy and she was also very hungry. She was a bit astonished to hear that they had poisonous barbs but that would just add to the challenge.
In twenty minutes Lily came back, dragging one of the deer creatures by the nech looking very pleased with herself. "Damn, this prey can run!" She began to eat, giving a decent space to the tail of the creatures. She ate her fill, still plenty for anyone else, well, maybe not Beaky but still enough for Demon. "So, what are we going to do here? A little sight seeing maybe?" She said lightly. She secretly hoped that there would be another fight, last one was too easy. She began to clean up.

Dreamer flew over the landing dragon, eyeing the deer-like creatures with a hungry eye. She flew low, her talons ready, claws extended on her back paws. She swooped low, and in one grab, latched onto the creatures neck with her talons, breaking its back with her powerful paws. She yanked the neck and heard a satisfying snap, and the body went limp. She carried the beast back next to Demon and Lily, tearing at it hungrily, all this flying made her hungry. "I wouldn't mind sightseeing." Dreamer said. She wanted to make amends to the tiger, she didn't want there to be a quarrel. "Besides," she said, licking a loose entrail off of her beak, "what else are we going to do here?"

Lily smiled darkly. "There are certainly... other... things we might be able to do." She walked oveer to Deemon and sprawled across the ground.

Dreamer sensed some sort of innuendo in the comment, but chose to ignore it. Instead, she walked over and sat down beside Lily, her claws retracted, her talons sitting solidly on the sand. She clicked her beak a few times, then said, "Demon, if you wish, I could get something or you, I know you're exhausted from flying."

Demon gazed at the gryphon with a curious eye as he licked and nibbled at his claws. "No thankee. I will finish off that deer there when I get around to moving." He laughed softly, then stretched, ending in a sprawl on the ground. "Sightseeing...I guess we could do a bit of that. But my goal is to find one of my friends and get information from him, then I must continue on." A shot a furtive glance at Lily, a smirk on his face, "And there will be asses to kick, I assure you."

This made the tigeress very happy. No matter how at ease she was, a little less than before actually, she still liked to kick asses. Maybe a bit less torturing involved. Maybe. She stood again, pure excitement rushing through her and making her feel giddy. The lions in this land were supposed to be big!
