Li (Geist)[closed]

[Boomer]

(Just realized that Shadow Mastery is in Autumn not Summer >XD)

Li;

The shadowed male breathed in the cool autumn air slowly. He smirked before looking down at his own shadow, the moon rised and hovered over the night sky. Li looked up and he felt the wind brush through his rough and thick pelt. Li then looked down and started trotting forward. He climbed the mountain and looked in front of him which was a cave which he could only assume where the goddess stayed. "Geist," he said, his voice naturally sounding like death itself "I came, for a request." Li looked up again and shook his head. It was obvious what he wanted, what power he wanted. It was the only power that truly suited him, Li looked at his own shadow once again and snorted barely.

And that power would come in handy, especially being the new beta of the deadliest pack out there, Midnight Silence. Maybe it was meant to be, due to his history, Li's father was a member of a deadly pack many years ago. And Li's father, Mayen did a good job training Li to be evil and fulfill his destiny. Li grinned to himself, though, any other wolf wouldn't be able to tell because of his teeth being black. That was why wolves had given him name that suited him well "the shadowed male". Because that what he looked like, a shadow, he could go into hiding and no one could see him- maybe smell him out but see him? That could be impossible.

Geist;

Geist shifts in the cave, her eyes narrow in vexation, the color of her eyes burning brighter. She stalks out of her cave, advancing toward the male to meet him where he stood. The goddess takes no time to sort through his thoughts. She didn't need to as she already knows who he is and why he's here.

Although her mood was never what one would consider bright even on it's best days- her mood was now further dampened by the visit. Her eyes reflected a disdain for the wolf before her. How dare he interrupt her peace and come requesting something of her.

"You request something of me? What makes you dare to think that you can request something of me? Hmm?" Geist raises her eyebrows questioningly but she never intends Li to answer her question.

"Do you want me to burn you down to the ground now? Or should we prolong this further?" The White Wolf sits, her tail curling around her side with steady and calm movement and she stares at the male, her voice hair-raisingly calm yet cold.

[Boomer]

Li;

The male backs up a few steps when Geist appeared, she threatened to burn him now or wait a little longer. Li clears his throat, and spoke "Mayhem, err, Mayan always said not to waste any time. I'm sure you don't want your time wasted." he said while lifting his chest "You know me, from the inside and out, you know my soul urges for darkness... To controll it, I want to be a master of shadows." Said Li as he glanced at the moon above him. Li could remember one night, long ago, he had a dream that he was your typical grey wolf and a raindrop of darkness simply touched his nose and within seconds his entire body oozed with darkness.

Li looked at the evil goddess, his eyes hardly even shiny. After a few moments Li remembered that he met a wolf who had the power to control shadows, it was Nyx. They way she controlled the shadows only made Li urge for the power even more than ever. The dark furred male inhaled the air deeply and waited for the evil goddess' reply. Li wondered, would he possibly anger her? He tried his best not too because another thing Mayan said was to never anger a goddess.

[emorli]

Geist;

Geist eyes down the wolf, focusing in on the thoughts running through his brain. She tilted her head back and lets out a heavy sigh. He isn't wrong about anything he's said so far. He at least understands that angering a goddess isn't the best idea; He's not as stupid as Geist once thought, although, the visit isn't one of her more enjoyable ones so far.

"So, you want to replace Nyx now that she's nowhere to be found?" The female gives a small whip of her tail as she examines the male. What could he possibly do to live up to Nyx? As far as Geist was concerned, the wolf that had mastered the art of shadows was an idol to this wolf, just like a pup would look up to an older wolf.

"Explain to me why exactly you believe I should give you any type of power. And make it quick. As you said, I don't want my time wasted." Geist decided to be slightly patient with the wolf, but one wrong move on his part and he would leave with less than he showed up with.

[Boomer]

Li;

It wasn't a surprise that Geist had read his thoughts when he was thinking of Nyx. The goddess told him to explain why he should even get a power to begin with and he had to be fast about it. Li lifted his head high, preparing himself as he did his most best not to make a wrong move "With being the new beta of Midnight Silence I believe it's my job to make sure everything is in order, if the alpha dies and there is no one but me to be next I have to make sure I am even strong enough to take care of the pack." he said still lifting his head. Although it wasn't likely that the alpha would die soon, it was a possibility nonetheless. Li continued on "I also want wolves to fear me, my size may be intimidating to most wolves, other wolves don't fear me like I'd like them to. I simply want to master the art of shadow in your name, evil runs in my blood just like my father before me and his father before him." Li lowered his head just a little and hope he didn't say anything wrong. It was true though, he had evil run through his blood, generations of evil in his father's side of the family.

Geist;

The she-wolf made up her mind. She would have Li choose his fate himself. How the male leaves Geist's den is now all in his hands. Giving him the chance of gaining Shadow Mastery was only fair- Nyx had left, leaving a gap where her power once connected a bridge of balance, however, the gift wouldn't come free.

"Pick one of these." Three potions appear out of mid-air, one filled with a completely pitch-black liquid with the consistency of oil, the second one, holding a more watery substance glows a deep blue, and last, but not least, the third flask. The liquid inside is purple and it gives off a black gas that disappears into nothingness. The power-granting wolf grins dangerously and her voice comes out smooth tones,

"One holds my priceless power. One will do nothing, but you will have to complete a task for me. The other will make you blind in one, or maybe both eyes unless treated by White Magic quick enough." Geist pushes the two glass bottles toward the male and they sit in the air, hovering in front of his face, enticing him to choose one.

[Boomer]

Li;

The dark furred male watched as three bottles appeard, he had to pick one... He had ro choose the right one. Geist stated that one will do nothing, one will possibly leave him blind while the other will grant him his power. Li's expression was blank, but he gulped a little, hopping he was going to choose the right one.

Li took at least a few moments, he had to think fast, unless he wanted Geist to choose for him and make him go blind. Li gulped again, he eyed the completely pitch-black liquid. Maybe that was the one... But that would he too easy, he stared at the bottle with purple liquid, maybe that one could be it. And he finally stared at the blue water bottle. He made up his mind that he wasn't going to choose the blue bottle... But now he had the purple bottle and the black bottle to choose from.

He was starting to feel slightly nervous... Which one to choose... Which one to choose...

"The... Black one..." he gulped one last time, pleading in his mind that he chose the right one. But he would rather do a task for Geist than to go blind. Choosing that bottle made sense, right? If he wanted to controll shadows then that bottle had to of been it.

Geist;

The goddess' eye bore holes into the male as the flask levitates toward him, sounding a small 'tink' on the rock as it's set down. The other two potions disappear into nothingness. A sinister smile plasters itself on on Geist's maw. The panic that rushes around Li's mind is amusing, and the fear of choosing the wrong one just made the evil sister crave more.

Her words roll out of her throat, voice like knives through stiff autumn air,

"You made your choice. So, go ahead. Drink it." The wolf's grin only widens as the time before the male finally takes in the black, oil-like liquid passes. She allows her excitement for the male's decision show like she's anticipating the choice that he's made, even though she already knows exactly which one he chose. The anxiety that comes before a major decision is one that the white wolf tries dragging out; the pain addicting.

[Boomer]

Li;

Li looked at the black bottle being placed down in front of him, he tried to get rid of his fear, Mayan told him that showing fear was a sign of weakness. Li breathed in deeply and said "Bottoms up." he then grabbed the bottle with his mouth and lifted it up, drinking the liquid. After finishing the drink he placed the bottle down gently and he looked at the goddess.

He felt a little strange after drinking whatever inside that bottle, he waited for whatever was going to happen next, oh please oh please don't get blind! He had so much more to do before getting blind! Did he choose the wrong one? The blue bottle looked like it would do nothing and the purple bottle looked like it was some type of poison. Maybe he was just basing it off of logic, Li stayed quiet the whole time and waited again to see if there was going to be some type of change.

He took a small step back, his eyes partially closed, what was going to happen? He could see the grin on Geist's face, maybe he did make the wrong move, but he wasn't going to show fear, he wasn't going to fear. At this moment he isn't afraid, whatever happens next it was all because of his move, of course he hoped he did the right one.

[emorli]

Geist;

The male steps back a few times, closing his eyes as if he's too scared to open them only to find that he can't really tell if he's actually opened his eyes or not anymore. Nodding, Geist turns on her back paws without any confirmation. She retreats back into her cozy den and soon disappears into the darkness that engulfs it.

Her voice cuts through the male's mind a dangerously calm tone wrapped on her words,

"Lucky, lucky for you," The white wolf pauses for a moment, breathing a heavy sigh out before continuing on informing him which potion he chose, "Go prove to me that you will be a useful minion. Bring me the eye of a good or neutral powered wolf, then I will reconsider granting you Shadow Mastery."

[Boomer]

(Ahh im sorry for the short post! Im just too tired and lazy XP)

Li;

Thankfully, nothing happened to him, the male sighed in relief. He squinted his eyes and looked to see if Geist was still there, no, she wasn't. Li then heard her voice in his head, it merely freaked him out. Geist told him to bring her an eye of a powered good or neutral wolf... Wait a minute, a powered wolf? How was he supposed to find some wolf with a power!? Li blinked a few times before nodding "I'll bring that eye..." he said quietly before turning away and went down the mountain. This was going to be hard, really hard, he didn't just had to bring any eye... Li had to bring back an eye of a powered wolf of all things. All he could do is hope he wasn't going to die just for his precious Shadow Mastery.
