Lark & Others
Lark led the group back to the gate. She pressed the intercom button. "Chto ia. Davaite diuima. It's me. Let us in." She said, quick and to the point. Immediately, the gate was opened for them. Lark and Dimitri walked through the gate and were immediately greeted by Adrian, Mika and Angela. Angela ran to Lark and hugged her. "Ia dumal, vy pogibli! I thought you were dead!" She screamed. Lark smiled down at her young cousin.
Dimitri walked past the group, grunting as he passed them. Mika followed him. "Dima, what's wrong?" She asked. She looked back at Lark. "I don't suppose...nevermind."
Lark looked at Dimitri and shrugged, then looked at Zack. "You can come inside." She said, then walked to the house.
Zack
He got off the horse and nodded.AlrightHe said with a smile and moved on after.
Rukia ran after Lark.
Lark & Others
Lark walked into the house and was greeted by Viktor. "How many times now have you invaded animal territory and almost lost your life?" He asked.
Lark shrugged. "A few." She said innocently.
Viktor grinned. "I'd say more than a few." He replied. "Anyway, we're about to arrange a meeting with the ATHA." He glanced at Zack. "And I'm interested in hearing more about your group."
Zack
He listened and watched.Lords and ladies of destruction? Ask awayhe was sure cloud and sephiroth wouldn't mind giving information to these people.
Rukia sat by lark and purred.
Viktor Volkov
Viktor folded his arms across his chest and watched Zack. "What is the purpose of your group?" He asked first.
Zack
He listened.The purpose of our group is to destroy those who cause harm to the city and its citizensThis was slightly the truth for there purpose when they first came was to take over the city but it has recently changed to what he just said.
Rukia bit larks leg lightly and then moved away.She found an unoccupied corner and laid down. An hour later five kittens nursed.Two females and three males.
Viktor Volkov
Viktor smiled slightly. "That is very much like our purpose." He stated. "Who is your leader?"
Lark followed Rukia to the corner and sat next to her.
Zack
He smiled.We have two, One is kind while the other is usually a complete ass, Cloud and Sephirothhe said. Good thing Sephiroth wasn't here haha.
Rukia cleaned the five babies and then rested her head on larks lap. She didn't want lark to leave her side.
Viktor Volkov
Viktor nodded. "I'd like to make a meeting with your leaders." He was interested in starting an alliance.
Mika walked in the door and walked to where Lark sat and spoke quietly to her.
Zack
He nodded.Well name the time and place and i can give them a call. They don't do muchOkay so yet again good thing sephiroth wasn't here...
Rukia kept her head on lark
Dimitri Volkov
Just as Viktor was about to speak, Dimitri walked in and threw a punch at Zack, but would probably miss due to his very poor sight.
Zack
He barely missed.He raised a brow and stood ready.DUDE! What the fuck? Whats your problem?he stood ready to defend himself.
Dimitri Volkov
Viktor grabbed Dimitri and held him back. Dimitri tried to get free and have another go at Zack, but wasn't strong enough. "Stay away from Lark!" He shouted.
Zack
He raised a brow now completely confused.I thought you were over the fact that we love each other? so what the fuck would you say that for? What the hell did I do?He growled.He then looked to lark quizicly.
Dimitri Volkov
Dimitri tried to rush at Zack, but was once again stopped by his brother. "You stole her from me!" He raged.
Angela walked into the house, having heard the commotion. The young girl's eyes were wide. To any of the Volkovs it would be obvious what Dimitri was going on about. She didn't dare make a move. She simply watched Dimitri and Zack.
Zack
He snorted.Its her choice! I didn't Steal her!, Let him come at me, viktor i can handle him. He might need some sense beaten into him. Don't worry i won't kill himhe hissed his eyes narrowed. God this guy was a pain in zacks rear end.
Dimitri Volkov
Viktor looked at Zack, paused for a moment and then let Dimitri go.
Dimitri immediately ran at Zack, trying to slam him to the wall and knock him out.
"NO! DON'T FIGHT!" Angela screamed, tears flooding from her eyes. Mika held Angela's hand and led her away, shooting a dirty look at Zack and Dimitri as she left.
Zack
He heard angela but ignored her cry. He did a back flip and then he aimed a kick at Dimitri middle. He was pure muscle and wasn't about to let this guy show him up.
Dimitri Volkov
Dimitri, having poor sight, failed to dodge this one. He was kicked straight in the stomach. But he wasn't going to give up. Not yet. He punched at Zack over and over again.
Zack
He took a punch to the shoulder and then made to grab Dimitri's hand as it came at him.He then made ot put his other hand on Dimitri's upper arm. Then he attempted to flip him right on over on his stomach.If he did this he pulled the arm behind his back and put his knee on the middle of his back.Had enough yet?
Dimitri Volkov
Zack's tactic was successful. Dimitri was on his stomach. He clenched his teeth in pain, not wanting to admit that Zack had already won. "Net. Chto bolee chem eshche. No. It's not over yet." He said in his home language.
Zack
He kept his leg on the mans back.I'm sorry, I don't know what you said but i think you said noHe said this and made to twist his arm.You'll give, I know you will. You need to learn your place kidHe hissed.
Dimitri Volkov
Dimitri grunted when his arm was twisted. "I would think your mother would have taught you not to beat up a blind man." He said through clenched teeth. He couldn't take it anymore. "You win."
Zack
He laughed still holding him.She did, But my old man taught me to assert my self and make sure others know my position. And to tell you the truth your postion doesn't just go with the gang your in it counts with others too. And I'm not about to let you assert yourself over me!He hissed. He then smirked. He shoved hte mans head and then stood up.Next time think before you actHe turned back to viktor.Now where were we?
Dimitri Volkov
Dimitri stood up and walked toward Lark and grabbed her arm, looking at Zack defiantly with a snarky grin on his face.
Viktor stepped forward. "You can call your group right now if it's a good time." He said.
Zack
He nodded.He then glared at Dimitri.Leave her alone buddy, She's Taken!He hissed.He then flipped his cell open and dial Clouds number.Hey , Cloud its Zack yah yah I'm sorry about that we needed a place to rest. But anyways, Would you and sephiroth mind coming to ah..hold onHe then turned to viktor.Now?He questioned and then he told Cloud the answer.
Rukia growled at Dimitri.She hissed.
Viktor Volkov
Dimitri narrowed his eyes. "You don't seem to go by those rules, so why should I?" He said sarcastically. He put his arms around Lark as if he was taunting Zack.
Viktor nodded. "Yeah, now." He replied.
Zack
He nodde.dThey'll be hereHe said and then turned back to Dimitri.His eyes now on fire.Let her go now or did you not have enough?He hissed.His hands in fists.He took a step closer.His lip twitching.
Dimitri Volkov
Dimitri grinned. "See what happens if you fight me. How do you think Lark will feel?" He taunted.
Lark sighed. She didn't plan to understand this.
Zack
He glared.Lark is it alright baby girl?He said with a soft smile.
Dimitri Volkov
Lark paused for a moment. She shook her head. She couldn't bear to see either of them fighting over her.
Dimitri smirked and kissed Lark's cheek. "Ia liubliu vas. I love you." He said, still taunting Zack whether he understood him or not.
Zack
His lip twitched.Lark lets go for a walk without asshole thereHe said.IF lark didn't want a fight then he needed to get out but he wouldn't leave lark with him.
Cloud: Was tired but got up.He pressed the intercome.I was told to come here by zackHe spoke in it.
Sephiroth on the oter hand wasn't happy.
Dimitri Volkov
Lark pulled away from Dimitri and walked to Zack.
Dimitri let her go and walked away victoriously. He had won. He knew it.
Adrian opened the gate. "Come inside." He said, leading the visitors to the house.
Zack
He glared at dimitri.Oh that kid will learn one way or another.He wrapped his arm around lark protectivly nodded to cloud and sephiroth and walked out the door.
Cloud:Followed Adrian into the house.
Sephiroth followed as well.
Viktor Volkov
Viktor looked at Cloud and Sephiroth. "You are the leaders, yes?" He asked.
Lark followed Zack out the door. She looked at the others as they passed.
Zack
He held tightly too her.Not sure where thye be going he just needed to get out.
Cloud:Yes, I am Cloud and this is SephirothHe said
Sephiroth snorted.
Viktor Volkov
Viktor nodded. "Good. I am Viktor Volkov." He replied. "I'm interested in starting and alliance."
Cloud and Sephiroth
He nodded.Well I'm interested
sephiroth.Well What ever lets just get it overhe growled and was slapped by cloud
Viktor Volkov
Viktor looked at the two. "Alright. So do we have an alliance?" He asked.
Angela sat in a tree and looked down at Lark and Zack with sorrowful eyes. She didn't much like this new man. He beat up her brother.
=Cloud
yes, We doHe said.
Sephiroth grunted
Zack held lark.I Love you
Viktor Volkov
Viktor smiled. That was quick. "Good. I look forward to working with you and your people." He replied.
Lark smiled. "Me too." She said contently.
Dimitri walked down the walkway with Vanya following him. "I say again..." He began, "Stay away from her."
Angela stayed up in the tree and watched them.
Zack
Oh god damn this kid.He held onto her.Go away Dimitri! She is my girlfriend so i will be near her!He snarled holding tight to her.He glanced down at Vanya but didn't connect eyes.His lip twitched.
Cloud:Same here, so i guess we'll see you guys around he said
seph
Dimitri Volkov
Dimitri clenched his fists. "Net! Get away from her!" He shot back. He tried to grab Zack by the throat and shove him against the tree.
Viktor nodded. "See you around." He parroted.
Zack
The man missed by a mere inch.He pulled lark away.Back off! You know perfectly well that Lark doesn't want a fight so why the fuck are you trying to start one!He growled.
Cloud and sephiroth nodded and then walked out.
Dimitri Volkov
Dimitri stepped back. "I'm just protecting her. She'll thank me later. And you will too once you get to know Lark." He once again tried to grab Zack's neck and shove him against the tree.
Zack
This time Dimitri was succesful.He glared.I'm not gonna leave her alone.I love her!He growled and then without warning aimed a swift kick to the males stomach.Back offHe snarled.You really don't want to see me angry!
Dimitri Volkov
Dimitri groaned when he got kicked in the stomach, but didn't back off. He looked at Lark. "Who do you choose? Me or him?" He asked.
Lark looked from one to the other. She honestly couldn't decide. "I...I don't know..." She said ashamedly, lowering her eyes.
Zack
He glared at him.She chose already dumb ass!He growled. He was desperatly trying to control himself so he wouldn't use all of his power to defeat this kid.
Dimitri Volkov
Dimitri glared back. "Really? It looks to me like she's pretty indecisive right now." He stated.
Lark was indecisive. She had known Dimitri since they were both children and had him follow her around like a puppy for years. How could she just forget about him? But of course, she did love Zack. It was a tough choice.
Zack
He glared.Hmm I asked her out yesterday and she said yes dumb fuck!He snarled.lark can we go somewhere else without this pest. I really don't want to hurt him and if we don't get out of here i'm afraid my temper might just be losthe snarled.He attempted ot push dimitri off of him.
Lark Volkova
Lark looked at Zack and nodded. She shoved past Dimitri, willing to follow Zack anywhere.
Dimitri stepped back and watched them go. "Yeah, run away! That's real brave!" He shouted after them.
Zack
i told you lark doesnt want a fight i am only doing this cuz i love her unlike you!He hissed and then moved walking away.His arm going around lark.He leaned closer and whispered.I want to ask you something when were out of ear shot
Lark Volkova
Dimitri shook his head and walked away in defeat.
Lark nodded. "Alright." She replied. Soon enough they were near the edge of the property where nobody would hear. Or, at least, she thought. Angela had followed in the trees, hidden in the still green branches of the pines and live oaks, out of sight.
Zack
He bit his lip. He knew they had only known each other for alittle over a month. But Zack could not give this girl up. He loved her and only her.He took a deep breath and his hand went into his pocket.he then stepped in front of her.He got down on one knee.He pulled out a diamond ring.Lark, Will you marry me?he said his eyes now connecting with hers.
Lark Volkova
Lark looked down at Zack. Thoughts were racing through her mind. Then she went blank. She wanted to say something, but she couldn't find then words. Eventually, though, she took a deep breath and spoke. "Yes." That was all she could say.
Angela gasped and raced away.
Zack
He smiled and then took her hand and put the ring on.He stood up and kissed her forehead.I love you
Lark Volkova
Lark smiled back. "I love you too." She said softly. She looked down at her ring and fingered it. "We're going to have to lay low until Dimitri calms down."
Zack
He smiled.We can go stay at my placeHe said with a smile.
Lark Volkova
Lark nodded. "That sounds good to me." She replied with a shrug.
Zack
He nodded.Alright, Shall we ride or walk? and what about rukia you know she ain't gonna like being left behind especially when she has kits i'm sure she might get angry being left here
Lark Volkova
Lark looked down at the ground. "Hmmm...I can't go in and get Rukia. They'll suspect something. And they'll just go insane if you get her. I guess we'll have to come back for her." She looked back up. "We should walk, I think."
Zack
He nodded. He took her hand and led the way
