Guardians (RP thread)

" you purposely make yourself big?" Sam asked curiously.

"I am...very weak in actuality." Azriel sighed. "Do you see these tattoos? Do you know why I have these?" Azriel asked.

Sam looked at them shaking her head. " why?"

"Because I alone cannot contain hell inside my body." Azriel sighed. He made two obsidian stumps and sat down on one. "These tattoos are seals on my body that keep hell from over possessing me and killing me." He said.

" will Eli be strong enough?" She asked a bit concerned sitting down on the other stump. " will you be Okay?" She kind smiled " you're shorter then I imagined."

He chuckled. "I am the smallest of us three." He said as he looked as her gently. "As for Eli he has plenty of time to get strong enough. That's why I work him so hard." He said nudging her slightly. "As for myself I will never be okay." He said. "I wasn't ever strong enough to contain to hell because I was possessed when I was only 11 years old. My body was severely damaged and I was on the brink of dying, but our Dragkin traded his life in order to put these seals on my body." He said.

" so your version of Ajax?" Sam said nodding understanding. " you never been able to contain hell?"

Lei tried focusing quietly for several minutes but nothing happened. He sighed and looked up at Orrik with a shrug.

"Yes he was our version of Ajax, but more like a father." He said. "And that's true I can't contain hell without these seals on my body. I also can't show you true looks without releasing them." He said gently. "I don't ever want to see you kids be like us, like me. Weak and powerless without help." Azriel said as he hung his head between this hands. "I want you guys to live long and happy lives without fighting, not like the way me and my brothers do." He said.

Orrik thought. "What is the happiest moment of your life?" He asked. "Sometimes the ox will come to a happy memory."

Sam rested a gental hand on his shoulder. " sometimes the strongest thing you can do is ask for help. It's not weak to need help."

"But sometimes we have to do things alone because we have no other choices."he sighed. "It not like I can always ask the other two for help. They both have things to worry about." He said. Azriel returned to the form he was most often in. 7 feet talk, buff and deep red skinned with spiked hair and horns. He smiled at her. "I can see why Ray like you so much. That and your soul is very pretty." He said. "Anyway, let's get back to trying." He said.

"Umm... maybe moving to America. I mean after the shock of moving homes wore off." Lei shrugged and tried to picture it in his mind.

"Anything else?" He asked.

Sam blushed a little from the compliment. " I'm guessing you see our souls too?"

"Birthday parties... not much specific." Lei said.

Azriel nodded. "All of us can, Earth is just naturally able to do it." He told her. "Now focus you dork." He said as he stood up and crossed his arms.

"Okay well try to focus on a happy thought." Orrik instructed.

" okay. So you want me to make lion ears appear on my head or something?"

"What ever your body chooses to call upon it will make." He said.

Sam nodded thinking about what emotion was the strongest as trying to picture herself as a lion.

Azriel sat there watching as he folded his hands watching he soul. She could feel a cold prickle run up her spine.

Sam stayed concentrated. She was focusing on her desire to be good.

The sensation trickled over her head. She felt her hair raising and her hair stiffening.

Sam kept going not giving up.

"Hey, father, am...am I a disgrace?" The voice of a young child asked.
"My, goodness! What makes you think that?" A older man asked.
"Rayyan says it all the time. And I think he's right. I can memorize scriptures or sacred texts..."
"Hey now, Azriel never say that! You are talented and a wonderfully kind hearted, protective person!" The man said. "And I as your Dragkin, no as your father will make sure you become the best guardian possible." the words slipped into her mind softly as if like a whisper.
