Secretly a Werewolf Killer
✾ Syke ❀ Cria ✾
✽❋⚘✿Miniature Mage✿⚘❋✽
Syke closed her eyes in preparation for death, when suddenly the momentum of the fall was snatched away - a warmth, akin to a swaddling blanket, wrapped about her form - and she was certain - this was the afterlife. Peaceful tranquility. And yet - what was with this, voices? Perhaps, the greeters of whatever state of being she had transformed into upon death. Syke felt a great surge of movement, as though she was flying through the air; she supposed she should meet these greeters promptly, her eyes flew upon, but the light above blinded her and several attempts had to be made to adjust her vision properly. It was her final attempt with which she felt the warmth fade from around her, and an environment spread before her. With a wobble she righted herself, and realized, that underfoot felt very familiar! As did the colors she could spot around and before her. Oh my, had she been reborn into another creature, another being?! It could simply not be the case, as in her hands tightly clutched was her fateful staff, and with a wiggle she could determine her fingers and toes to count up to 12.
"Oh, oh oh My!" She voiced upon coming to her senses - why, she knew exactly where she was! Though it may have taken her longer had it not been for Cayman's voice working its way cautiously out of his mouth. She clutched dramatically at where her heart may have been located, if she had one. "Surely I'd be gone if it weren't for you!" She sobbed, throwing herself onto his wrist in a minuscule embrace. Focusing on the words which she had been asked, Syke rose in a flurry, tugging at the fibers of Cayman's hoodie in an attempt to stand; she took several grand paces back, curtsied in her most elegant manner and announced in the way of someone trying to seem more grown-up then they were, "I am quite alright, thank you." She nodded, bobbed, her head a single time to affirm her statement. Though she had not checked herself as carefully as typical, she trusted Cayman had not let her fall leave her with any long with standing damage. "To you," she gasped with emotion, "I assuredly owe my life - two times over!" She dabbed at her eyes with the delicate handkerchief she managed to hold onto - though it served now more to wash her face then dry her tears. Her legs bent beneath her and she drifted into a kneel.
It was then she noticed once more the witch boy, who descended ever so powerfully to all the more congratulate Cayman! What was it he had said while above? Something about, Heroism! OH MY - Syke was thrilled beyond measure. Nikiri and Cayman absolutely had to meet, so much had they in common - namely, the saving of plantoid girls. She stretched her arms out toward Mika, and not being able to reach him or his lovely broom thrummed her little hands in the air in sheer enthusiasm, "Oh isn't he splendid?!" She cheered, my hero! "Cayman's saved me before - wouldn't you just know?" Syke was sure of it, people simply had to know of the heroism of a person by gazing upon their face - even if it was only half of it!
She rose in a twirl and looked about her excitably, my, living sure was a fine thing - you never knew who you were bound to meet. It was then however, that the sound of fairy feet distracted Mika - and Syke could not help but turn in his direction. My! If it wasn't that awful fae who was the only one Syke could think of to cause the witch tears; why would he be returning now?! And, oh dear. Although in the hands of a hero, Syke could do nothing but fret when faced with a snake of all beasties! And such a viscous fellow he looked! She could not stand his visage being so near, he had been harder to get a good look at whilst she stood so high upon Cayman's shoulder - but in his hands while he sat on the ground - was quite a different matter! A small gurgle escaped her as she struggled to turn around and work her way up Cayman's arm as quickly as she could - though admittedly it was not very. Half way up she tumbled, but was met with no great pain upon falling gracelessly back into his hands, in a whirl she was at it again, flinging herself into his hood as soon as she gauged it an arm's length. It wasn't and she overshot the distance she needed to throw herself. Syke somehow managed to end up standing on her head near Cayman's neck. She kicked her air born feet, but seeing as how her movements caused the nearby fabric on the back of his hood to ripple - and not wanting to create a space prime for her to slip into and perhaps accidentally be crushed in a rescue mission, ceased her flailing feet and resigned to standing upon her flower bud head. She felt very little panic while inside the hood - it had a sense of about it, which reminded her of the many little hide outs she claimed for herself back home.
Though she had gotten quite a good look at Hecate, Syke reasoned from current events, that she probably wasn't a horrible monster dead-set on Mika's demise, but instead some kind of acquaintance of his? She wasn't too mad she was nearly killed because of her rash actions; she knew herself to be a bit tricky to spot.
She waved a hand about carefully, not trying to knock herself off balance, and with it gave Cayman a pat, "Thank you," she stated again, "are you alright?" She had heard from unknown sources that rolling about on the ground could leave one with a nasty burn.
