The heat.

Frowning amber eyes followed one of ten sparks each catching the tips of pale fingers, rising slowly into strong bright flames, which grew as the seconds went by until they spread over the fingers, then the hands, the arms and eventually the rest of his body.
Red, orange, blue, yellow and white all flickered angrily within the flames the frown furrowing ever further into his face. A bad mood had grip on him which was unusual for the fire demon but he couldn't find a way to shift it. To many things weighed heavy upon his mind.

The demon he had been searching for, for so long still remained illusive and he had been so close before he had heard the news of the impending attack upon the coven. He had raced to try and help them but only arrived to late.
And the irony of it all was that he could have easily withdrew the flames and stopped them from decimating the land in which some of his family had called home.

On top of this one of the younger Death's was missing, the twins were still unstable one more so then she had ever been. The brothers and Asha seemed to be holding on by a thread all of it was such a mess and one he had not given himself enough time to deal with before he had arrived.
Sighing he let the flames jump high up into the air, giving them their own short lives under his supervision.

Uninterupting the feline watches. Black as night fur sooty still she sits quietly, watching. amber eyes glint with a faint shine against the flames that dance on and then consume his form. Curious as ever a cat could be, she waits. her tail flicking side to side she doesn't move, her right flank still extremely tender.

[Deleted]

Letting the flames linger he tilted his head listening to all they had to say to him they informed him that there was someone near by. Nodding he let the flames flicker themselves out but instead of extinguishing they drew themselves back into him.

"I know you are there and I know you are watching, you might want to be telling me what your intentions are before I let my flames seek you out"
He called this calmly with an almost friendly tone, he was not worried at this point.
Turning his head slowly in the direction of the creature he looked and waited.

[jinx]

A low purring rises in her, and she finally moves. A limp in her step from her injury. "I mean no harm, I am Jinx. I was just watching you, and your talented. If you wish to be alone I will go. I did not mean to disturb you." She says softly, the words crossing his thoughts gently, unobtrusively. Her eyes never leave his form, and she sits down again closer this time. "Welcome to what once was the coven. For as you see, it has been.....devistated."

[Deleted]

"Yeah I know I was there shortly after it fell. I know many that live here" he looked over the creature she seemed to have also been damaged by the events that had come to pass here just a few nights before.
"I do not mind company. I am sorry to you and your coven that I did not get here in time to control the flames which stole your home from you all"

[jinx]

Shaking her head a little, she lays down slowly. "It is alright. I think rebuilding will help everyone heal." She says and tries to avoid licking her fur. "What is your name?" She asks curious. Her tail flicking idly side to side. "You do? Who do you know, if you don't mind my asking?"

[Deleted]

"Your probably right" he decided to sit down she wasnt a threat to him he could tell that much at least.
"I actually know a few here. I know the Death twins, I know Daton, Mannix and I know the Romanian lot, Vaughan, Asha, Nathaniel, Caine and Romal, thats why I tried to come here and help"

[jinx]

A soft nod and she purred lowly still, content now. "I see. I have met them, but not much more then that." She says, and licks her right flank a few times before looking at hm again. "The rebuild will bond everyone even closer I feel. Tput bck together the place that we all became close in." She says optimistically.

[Deleted]

He smiled thinking about the ones he had come to see "They are all a handful and a half" he rolled his eyes in a playful way.
"All totally off their rockers"
Smiling he agreed with her.
"I think it will be good once it if finished and everyone can have acomplished it together"

[jinx]

A soft purring laugh comes through and she looks at him. "I could see that in them. I bet its never boring though." She says and licks her muzzle without thinking coughing she shakes her head a few times trying to get the soot taste from her tongue. "We, I think I should change and have a shower..." She says and stands slowly.

[Deleted]

"Probably a good idea so you don't go eating anymore Ash" he laughed seeing her shock at the taste of the soot. "Its bad for the lungs you know"

[jinx]

Nodding she stretches lazily, and turns. "I'm going to the springs, if you need anything, that's where ill be..." She says and slowly walks off, a limp in her gait still. Her ears turn back as she gets further away and she sighs deeply. Heading for the springs she makes her way through the burnt areas. Walking into one of the cool water springs she bathes her fur first... Once clean she shifts, and moves to a hot spring.

[Deleted]

He nodded keeping an ear out for her incase she needed any help, having obviously wounded herself during the battle.
"Alright I will be here too" he called after her.
Going back to toying with the flames he had some things to think about.

[jinx]

Sitting in the spring she sighs and closes her eyes. Hating water, but needing a bath badly she washes her hair clean, and cleans her skin. The angry red mark from her wound in bright view along her ride side she gingerly cleans the outside of it. Looking back toward the glowing flames she watches them curiously.

[Deleted]

He watched a small patch of the water raising his hand to produce a small purple flame which he floated across to the water, sitting it just above it he concentrated to keep the flame alive against the murky waters.
