OoC: The only reason that this thread is private, is because it involves a major plot between the two characters Nakutro and Cara, so sorry about that.

BiC: Cara reread the words scribbled across the parchment for what felt like the millionth time. She had been going over it constantly for the past three days, ever since she had discussed it with Nak. She picked up the black case from beside her bed, and walked down to the lake. Once she was on the side of the lake furthest from the castle, she sat down, and started pulling vials and scales out of her case, and began mixing them together according to the instructions she had created. She would have created the potion ahead of time, but she didn't have time, because of school and lack of ingredients, but now that it was the sunday after a hogsmead trip, it could be done. It saddened her, to what was about to happen, but she knew she had to do it, before the cousil sent someone after her. Now she just needed to wait for Nakutro, because the potion was nearly ready, turning a dark, almost black color.

"Proceed my dear" he says his voice coming from up above her as he drops from a nearby tree "The centaurs have promised to leave us be for this night so long as we handle our own messes" he says knowing what those beasts meant but didn't go into detail on it and stretches out some pulling out his wans and a razor blade pops up and retracts "Ready here"

Cara had gotten used to him jumping down from trees, so she didn't even look up from her work. "Just... one more second." She whispered, pouring some white liquid into the mixture. The potion turned from black to a dark red, and she stood up, finished. She glanced sideways at two of many white stones lined up a few feet away from them, then closed her eyes, preparing herself for the pain she knew would come with the potion. When she opened her eyes, she held the potion out to Nak so that he could add a small amount of his blood to it. She took her wand out of it's usual place on her belt, and held it ready to cast the spells she would need.

Nak extends the blade again and cuts his palm open some and once the blood starts to run he fed it into the vial and bandaged it up when the sufficient amount was added and retracted the blade "What else do i need to do? We never finished going over the details"

Cara flinched slightly when Nak cut his palm open, but then once he added his blood, she set it down on one of the stones, and sat down beside it. "Well, right now, there's not much more you can do, just... just wake me up if I fall unconcious." She swallowed, dreading the moment when the potion would touch her lips. She placed her wand over the edge of the vail, and started whispering incantations, causing the potion to start bubbling. When she stopped, so did it, but it was now a gold color. She traced her fingers over the words carved into the stone unconciously, wondering wether or not things would go as planned. She was pretty sure the potion would work, because she had tested it many times, but if there was something else that were to go wrong, she could end up dead as well.

Nak watches know that everything could go fubar if the silver in his blood reacts wrong with the potionhe even warned her of the holy metals in there but decided that it was her choice that and the silver was more like microscopic orbs then shards and that shells on them should protect Cara in any case suddenly a familiar green blob forms on his head and slithers to his hands "Now we watch and wait Creeps" he says and looks around him "Remember the deal Centaurs you stay out till requested and i help you build that that shrine." One sole Centaur walks out possibly the leader "Of course but we will always intervene on a bloody moon" it says and watches as well.

Cara stood up, picking up the bottle as well, gathering up the last bit of her courage. She raised the bottle to her mouth, then hesitated, looking back up at Nak. She had to admit, even though she had calculated a 97% chance of sucess, she was still really nervous about it. She held her breath, then drank the whole potion at once. She barely had a chance to set the crystal vial down, before the pain spread through her whole body. Even though she had expecte it, it still made her gasp, falling back onto the gravestone behind her. She tried to stand back up, but started coughing, and gave up the attempt. Instead, she let herself lay back as the pain grew even stronger, and her vision started to fade. Just as she had imagined would happen. Now it was up to Nak to make sure she stayed concious while the potion finished it's work. That was a crucial step.

Nak pulls out a needle band <like a wrist band but it has acupuncture needles: and pulls one out putting it into her chin the pain would lessen some so she won't grind her teeth to dust then one needle in her belly button to lessen the pain so she can maintain consciousness a bit better "Why the Needles child?" the centaur asks and nak replies "In the right areas it will dull the pain make doing this easier" the Centaur nods "I shall teach you a special remedy for things like this later" he says and walks back into the forest "I will watch from here"

Cara's vision sharpened, and she regained full conciousness, so that she was able to push herself up into a sitting position. After about five more minutes, the pain faded away, leaving Cara to try and catch her breath. Regardless, Cara stood up, ignoring the fact that her entire body felt funny, she was shaking slightly. "N-Nak..." She started to say, but was cut off by another thought. "Oh n-no... I wonder... m-maybe..." She trailed off, now looking fairly worried. Cara shrugged this off, she would have to see for herself later. On each of her test subjects, they had gone through at least one physical adaptation. The only thing that was different about Cara, was the color of her eyes. Instead of the bright green, they were an equally bright purple. The make up she usually wore had come off, revealing her numerous scars, the most prominent of which being the scars on her cheeks. Three on each(Exactly like naruto's, and no, I didn't get copy the idea. She had these long before I knew who Naruto was). She had gotten these when attacked by a three headed wolf. On her stomach was another scar that went directly arcoss her stomach, right through her belly button. She had others, but none of them stood out as much as these. The one on her stomach was from when she fell off a cliff. Right now however, she was more concerned with what was going to happen next.

Nak removes the needles from her there was the usual foreign object removal stinging sensation and he finds himself grabbed from behind but not in a violent manner it was more of to get his attention by a rather tall centaur "May we borrow some of your hair to repair some of our tools and weapons?" The centaur looks down on them due to his height "Sure but remember to go easy my hair is only as strong the object it binds" he says and removes his pony tail with his wand knife and gives it to him "Remember my price this is all your getting too so use it wisely. Later Hammer-fall" "May the stars guide you well Tengu-san" he says and gallops off. "Great guy but BSI" he says and smiles to Cara "What next hun?"

Cara couldn't help but stare in shock when Nak his hair short. Well, at least it meant that Cara didn't have to get herself irritated over him wearing his hair in a braid. In fact, she thought this new hair style looked good on him. "What next hun?" Nak asked. Cara shook her head to clear it, then answered him. "Now, well.... I should perform a few tests on myself as soon as I can, but right now, well..." Cara trailed off and started gathering up the few potion ingredientsshe had left out, as well as cleaning up the used vials. "Nak, everything should be in order, but we should probably make sure, just in case."

Nak tilts his head figuring she was still disoriented from the ordeal he nods and helps her "I think you need a nap or a drink not sure cus that made no sense." he says with a bit of a laugh and looks around "Do you hear something?"

OoC: Bah. Sorry it took me so long to post. And also, I have no idea what's going on right now, so just pretend this post isn't as bad as it actually is.

BiC: Cara merely stared at Nak when he said he thought she needed a nap or a drink. "Really? I thought I made perfect sense." She understood what she had said perfectly, so she didn't know what was going on.

Cara looked around as well when Nak asked if she heard anything, She hadn't heard anything at first, but when she was looking around she thought she knew what Nak meant. After a moment, she just asumed it was just her mind playing tricks on her. "On second thought, maybe I do need to lay down..." She muttered quietly, though with no intention of actually doing so.
