Adrenaline

[Adara Snow]

"Emilian!" Adara cried, her hands rising helplessly. She pushed to her feet, moving from the place she had fallen when Larten had pushed her out of Emilian's reach. "Stop!" She knew the uselessness of the words, but she had to try.

[Larten Stopel]

Larten smiled as the punch hit his side . He lifted his whole body on one hand and with his other foot aimed a kick at his face . He got loose and he grabed his wand and pointed it at him . " Get away now before i use this ...Adara get out of here " he said to her " Ill met you at the hogshead later . " he said .

[Emilian Sota]

"Like hell you will," Emilian said, ducking to the side so that the kick only hit his shoulder, twisting the guy's foot to potentially injure his ankle. "She's mine, and you'll stay the hell away from her." He pulled out his own wand, more for show than anything, but there was no way the guy would know his weak points. He aimed it at the guy's chest.

[Adara Snow]

"Emilian, no!" Adara was jarred into action. She threw herself at Emilian, catching his wand arm with both hands. She didn't push, didn't seek to throw off his aim, but to ground him with her presence.

[Larten Stopel]

Larten looked at Adara and then at the boy . " What....Hey dude i dident know she was taken...Adara why dident you tell me..." he said turning to her "Now you want to go with him or me ...." he said smiling " Violent dude against charming dude " he said smiling
((g2g bye))

[Emilian Sota]

Adara's touch stopped Emilian from charging again at the person in front of him. But that didn't mean he calmed down any. He bristled, how dare this guy try to take Adara from him? "Are you really so stupid?" Emilian had no doubt that Adara wouldn't even consider going to the other guy. He kept his wand aimed at his heart.

[Adara Snow]

"Emilian, no," Adara said again, not pulling her gaze from the icy blue of his. "I cannot go with you, Larten," she said. "I am Emilian's, I was confused. I am sorry if you thought..." She had been too shocked to say no.

[Cassie Jones]

Cassie had seen everything from within the shop and she came running out, drawing her wand at the same time. "Petrificus totalus" she cried, aiming her wand at Emilian, hoping it would reach it's target. "Locomotor mortis" was sent flying towards Larten a moment later. Not stopping to see if they actually reached the pair, although Cassie was a pretty good shot, Cassie hurried over to Adara. "Are you ok?" she asked, keeping an eye out to see if the boys would try and fight back.

[Larten Stopel]

Larten smiled at Cassie and nodded at Adara " Well..Thanks for the kiss...Call me anytime " he siad with a wink and walked off towards the castle .

[Emilian Sota]

Emilian turned at the sound of Cassie's voice, the spell flying just by his head. His eyes narrowed and Larten's words made him tense up, Adara's touch the only thing keeping him from grabbing the guy. When he looked back at Adara, his eyes asked what had happened, but he couldn't say anything, not with Cassie standing there. "And what are you thinking pulling a wand?" She had no right.

[Adara Snow]

Adara had watched Larten walk away in stunned disbelief. His negligent persistence only cast Emilian into a brighter light by comparison. She turned her gaze back to Emilian in time to catch his, and her eyes pleaded for understanding and patience that she did not deserve. She should not have frozen. Cassie's question registered too late, but she assured both Cassie and Emilian with one softly murmured, "I am all right."

[Cassie Jones]

Cassie looked at him, not impressed, "I had every right, I don't want you two fighting outside my shop. I know how much damage you can cause" she retorted. She turned away from him, back to Adara. "As long as you're ok" she said gently before she spun on her heel and went storming after Larten. "Larten stop!" she called, her voice stern.

[Emilian Sota]

Emilian glared after the two of them, wanting to say something in retaliation to Cassie, but refraining. When they were both gone he looked down at Adara, putting his wand away. "What was he thinking?" he muttered angrily, brushing some dirt off of the back of Adara's shirt and skirt. He examined her eyes to be sure she was telling the truth, that she was alright. "What happened?"

[Larten Stopel]

Larten stopped and turned with a smile " Cassie...I was just having a bit of fun..." he said walking up to her " I'm sorry...It will never happen again...You are the only girl for me...Even thought not even my girl..." he said sadly looking at the ground .

[Adara Snow]

Adara wanted to look away, ashamed of what had happened, but Emilian's gaze demanded directness, or perhaps she was only determined that he believe her. She started at the beginning. "I was looking in the window, thinking about the masquerade, and he introduced himself. I had only just learned his name when he...brought me here! I was confused, Emilian, and when he asked if he could kiss me, I tried to speak..." And she hadn't, and he had kissed her. Her gaze dropped, unable to continue, to risk Emilian's censure. "I am sorry, Emilian!" She nearly choked on the words. Her hands twisted into the ruined linen of her skirt.
