How Far Would You Run To Be Free?

[Midnight]

It wasn't unusual to have hunters trying to catch you or even kill you,but the rarer you are the most likely they will use you for there own greedy ways and treat you horribly.

This had been most the life for theses two brothers every since they wore teenagers. You see where everyone has heard about dragon demons or this demon or that demon or even the rare elemental in this world.

There wasn't many that knew about dinosaur demons. The demons that are billions of years old. Not just a few thousand like maybe vampires or werewolves or other demons,but dinosaur demons. That been around since the world was young and new. Born from dinosaurs no doubt and adopted in the cruel world and changed into demons by a certain god.

So dinosaur demons wore rare and hardly anyone knew they existed or was even real and the ones that knew they wore real planned on using them in fights and other such things.

Which is how the two brothers got most of there scars that or running or escaping from there captures ,but since then more technology has came out that made capturing them much easier and there escapes much harder.

At the moment the two brothers wore in the woods resting from recently escaping again. The younger brother looking more rough then his brother. A more popular color in his dinosaur form than his older brother and so had been used in more fights then his brother.But the two had escaped yet again,but barely.

Nate was bleeding on his side and still had pieces of chain cuffs around his ankle and wrists and his brother had a large gash to his forehead with blood rolling down it as Wes looked over Nate not caring about his own well being.

The two wore deadly killers though being that of a raptor demon. Both lean muscular and fast.

Lucio crept through the woods, careful to keep quiet. It had been a while since he was anywhere close to where hunters resided, but that didn't mean he was careless. It was hard to forget the stories told about the horrors of their camps and experiments. He'd even seen a few broken souls that had made it out, free but now drained of any hope. Even for him, it was hard to stomach. Then again maybe it was because those he found were closer to him than the random weakling he liked to play around with. Some were even stronger than him and had been captured. Only caution and luck kept him free.

He supposed the fact he was too young to really be intimidating also helped. Even if he was a fire elemental, he was nothing like the ancient ones of his kind. At 400 he did well to pass as an unusually strong fire spirit, and only experts picked him out as what he really was. While it was an embarrassing fact most days, it was a blessing around hunter territory.

His next step cracked a twig and he froze up. Lucio swore mentally and looked around, crouching low to the ground as fire started to spark up at his fingers. The scent of singed leaves touched the air but other than that he didn't hear anything, nothing human at least. There was something raising flags at the edge of his senses, however, something strong.

[Midnight]

Wes was the one that heard a twing snap and he growled out low as he went to stand up groaning slightly a the put a hand to his head and motioned to his brother to stay put as he went to go check to see what the noise was trying to be as quiet as he could,but there bleeding on the leaves and ground would give them away in a heat beat and Wes knew that.

(*sorry it's short I'll make up for it later.lol...)

[Sparksfox]

Lucio felt fire start to crackle in his throat as his nerves wound tighter with every second. If he strained his ears he could just pick up the sound of something dripping and yet it was hard to tell if it was real or just paranoia. Taking a slow breath, he tried to center his mind again. On one hand, there was no way a human was around that he couldn't sense and Lucio had never meant a hunter that wasn't human. That left either a rare case, one of the hunters twisted up experiments or something else entirely. The last choice also held the possibility of being safe or far worse than a hunter.

Still, Lucio was feeling optimistic and he hadn't been attacked quietly yet. Taking a chance he broke the silence. "Hello?"

[Midnight]

When a hello had broke the silence and it being one of someone he didn't know he came closer ,but slowly as he did to see what it was and soon he had came out of the clearing to come face to face with Lucio his eyes slightly narrowed on him a she glanced around for signs of others just incase this was a trap a she turned his head to look back at him,but the motion itself made him wince and stubble forward,but then again he looked like walking death to begin with.

[Sparksfox]

Lucio tensed as he finally saw what he was dealing with. They weren’t a hunter by the looks of it and he slowly relaxed the longer he looked at them. The person looked half dead and pretty harmless at the moment. Or at least they weren’t on the attack.

Making sure not to move suddenly, Lucio stood up and put his hands out in a passive gesture. “Whoa, hey... are you okay? Well no, guess not. Need help?”

[Midnight]

Wes groaned slightly as he put a hand harder to his head trying to apply enough preeasure to stop the bleeding from his head. "I could use the help me and my brother both could,but I am scared to stop even more so when our blood leads them right to us. "he said worriedly looking at Lucio.

[Sparksfox]

Lucio studied Wes for a short moment, taking in the different wounds and the knowledge he had a brother with him as well. His instincts urged him to for get his offer and just ditch them, it was too dangerous to have dead weight here, but he pushed the feeling down. He wasn’t one to go back on an offer even when he was better off changing his mind. At least when the offer wasn’t to a human or low mortal creature.

“I don’t have much for healing supplies... but I know how to cauterize. That’ll stop the bleeding but definitely won’t try that on your head. I can tear up my shirt and wrap it. Other than that I’m only good for burning things, might keep them back a bit if they attack you again.”

[Midnight]

"They only stay away so long before they come out at you full force again and since we recently escaped I have a feeling there catch up to us soon...so sure any help would be great"He said to Lucio softly as he turned his head and noticed Nate had followed regardless of him telling him to stay put.

[Sparksfox]

"Alright then. First things first, how high is your pain tolerance? We don't want any shouting to draw more attention and burning shut a wound hurts like hell." Lucio took a slow step forward as he talked, getting a better look at the brothers' wounds. "Also better prioritize which wounds need sealed fastest and what can just get wrapped up."

Hearing about how close the hunter could be was doing nothing to help Lucio's resolve to stay though he did his best to hide it. That said, his senses were on high alert now and he almost had to hold back jumping even when a breeze stirred up a few leaves.

[Midnight]

"At this rate I am sensative to anything,but I can manage not to scream from it I guess....and everything but my head even though that's the worst...and my brothers side is the worst "he added as he looked to him and then to his brother as he winced slightly standing was starting to make him dizzy.

[Sparksfox]

"Alright then. And sit down, both of you. Passing out would be the worst thing right now. I'll take care of your brother's side first, and while I do that," he paused the wriggle out of his shirt, handing it to Wes, "Think you can tear this up? It'll save time but no pressure."

[Midnight]

"Yeah I can do that and thanks for helping us.It means a lot. "Wes said as he took the guys shirt and tore off just enough to wrap his head in to stop the bleeding and watched as his brother sat down silently to get his side pathed up a bit and he himself sat down,but kept a good eye out for any noise .It seemed all three of them was jumping because of where they where and not wanting to get caught or for the boys. Again.

[Sparksfox]

"Thank me when we get out of this mess," was Lucio's response. He knelt down next to Nate and let the tips of his fingers catch fire. He concentrated until the flame was the right temperature and kept close to his fingers instead of flicking freely. "Sorry about this," he said before placing his hand on the wound. Carefully he dragged the fire across it, sealing it shut and trying to ignore the smell of burning skin.

[Midnight]

Nate had winced in pain and ended up biting his lip from it,but otherwise stayed pretty quiet do to being burned and had huffed out slightly after a minute as he glanced down at the sealed wound. "Mmm that's better than nothing"he added.

[Sparksfox]

"Glad to hear it" Lucio tried to smile as he drew his hand away in a poor attempt to be comforting. "Now you." He stood up and walked over to Wes. He gave a short warning before starting to do the same for the worse cuts on Wes's body. When he finally finished he stood back and looked between the brothers. "Can you move now though?"

[Midnight]

"Mmmm fuck...."Wes groaned out slightly as he had finished healing him. "Mmm I can do my best we are both plenty spent,but we have the drive to keep going it's when we stop that's the problem.Thats for helping us again it means a lot "Wes said as he stood up a bit shaky on his feet,but Nate helped to keep him stable.

[Sparksfox]

"Well I'll keep watch when we finally stop, I don't sleep much and fire will work to get a little time," Lucio said before waving off the apology. "And don't worry. Creatures like us have to look out for each other right? I haven't meant another elemental in... forever and I'm not even sure what you are besides strong. Hunters are responsible for that so gotta work together against them."
