Jasper watched as Morphine descended toward him, pleased with the current progression of events. He continued to move upward at an astounding rate for one of his size. As he had hoped for, Morphine was preparing to latch onto him. Good. He forced himself to hesitate right as they met and waited until his opponent’s claws were lodged firmly in his flesh before revealing his own plans.         Huge forelegs struck out and would wrap themselves around Morphine’s body in something akin to a death grip. If Morphine had not loosed himself before Jasper claws sunk into his own sides to secure the grip, there was no way he would be able to free himself. If successful, Jasper would deliver a series of “love bites” to the challenger; enough to draw blood, but not enough to cause damage. It was more or less a reminder of how much damage Jasper was capable of and that he was holding himself back. Both individual were. Jasper’s claws had fully reformed, but they were lodged in his own body to keep Morphine from escaping.         Should Jasper have failed to grasp Morphine, he would have once again begun to climb higher into the sky.

Caylis caught his eye and attempted to meet him in mid-air for them to roll around in a tornado of claws, fur and tooth. She showed no mercy as she unsheathed her claws and yowled, her ankle bleeding from Osic's sharp teeth. If that didn't work, she'd attempt to flip him over and pin him down. If he were to play dead, that would be the most stupidest trick she ever seen. But yet again, Osic was a teenager and he was learning. And that's all that mattered, she didn't care if she won or lost. At least she tried and that's all that mattered to the Hallowess. She snapped back to battle as she awaited Osic's move. (The fights are getting epical! )

After overlooking and discussing with the Captain for a while now, the King decided to step forward.
He held himself upright and a firm gaze was sent to the fighters - and if that didn't draw their attention, he would speak out. "Enough." And wait for the members to settle themselves. If they refused to follow orders, he would likely tend to it himself unless Cocaine beat him too it.
"Your captain and I've been discussing and watching each and every one of your efforts, and have made a decision on the temporary captain," A pause. "Circa," His head would turn toward the youth. "You will be Meurtrier's temporary captain in Cocaine's leave. Please step forward."
With this, he would await his orders to be carried out, eyes solely on her.
( This whole process was taking too long, so we went ahead and cut it short. Walter, you can talk to Kah, FJ, or me if you want helps or tips. Do remember this is a temporary spot, and congrats to you and Circa. (: )

COCAINE / BALTHIER II
[/i] He said loudly. Balthier stepped back and turned to Circa, bowing his head in congratulations. It had been a good, though short fight. Certainly deserved if Funeral and Cocaine thought it so. [/ul][/blockquote]

Brynneth gasped and turned her head to her children, with happiness in her eyes. She nodded to Circa in respect. "Well done, my friend." she said.
Caylis stopped in her tracks as she dipped her head to Circa with respect. She had never expected the young 'ess to be captain, she was indeed a lucky youngster. The other youth must've been jealous to see this, though she smiled and nodded to every other contestant: Balthier II, Shard of Shattered Jasper, Morphine Donovan and Osic Donovan. "Good job, all of you." she said calmly, looking at her wounds, looking up to Osic, she smirked. "Nice fight, young Osic." she said before padding off back to her seat, if needed, she'd come back.

(eeeeeee I'm proud of my baby 8'D)
Circa Da'ei Xemvoi
Circa readied herself as Balthier did, preparing to end the fight- but the captain's voice overcame them. She paused, huffing a bit to hear that he had chosen. So quick? She breathed, but her breath fell short when her name came from his maw. Her baby blues widened, she looked quite stunned, had she really impressed them? For a moment she was unsure what to do, but after another deep breath she finally relieved herself from her fighting stance, and a thankful smile appeared on her face as she dipped her head to the Captain and leader. "I'm... Honored, Captain Cocaine, to take your place. I promise, I wont let you down."
As her eyes parted she saw Brynneth and Caylis nodding happily at her, and Bathier even nodded in respect, she nodded back to him, once again friendly in contrast to earlier. She even looked to Osic, hoping he wasn't disappointed... But who's face she really wanted to see;
Was her father's.

Jasper heard the words of Funeral and snorted loudly, wondering why they had decided to stop the fights so early. He would release Morphine and dive toward the ground, wings folded and land quite heavily. He had never really desired the position, but the thought of competition was too delicious to resist. He had also joined the fray to prevent certain individuals from reaching the rank. Had he truly wanted the position, he would have taken advantage of his abilities better and not have ripped out his own claws, nor have let Morphine upon his wing. He regarded the leader and captain coolly, though his expression swiftly soured when they made their decision. His head whipped toward the young teen and his gaze was less than friendly. While he himself had not expected to be picked, this female had barely freed herself from adolescence and his eyes narrowed as he turned his gaze upon Funeral. Why not Morphine? The male had demonstrated skill and a level head, or so Jasper had thought. He may not have seen Circa fight, but her young age went against his logic for the position.         The monster made no effort to hide his disapproval, making it apparent he was questioning the leaders. But rather than stay and cause a scene, he turned on his heel and started to walk off. He spread his wings and took off in a great leap, clearing the tree line with ease and heading into the mountains where he would likely hunt and wait for a likely confrontation. Not being one to hide his feelings, the consequences did not matter too much to him at this moment.         Once Jasper had taken off, there was a stir in the local fauna as another monster appeared. Something of similar size and design erupted from the trees, sending leaves and creatures flying as it went in the direction of the departed creature. It would have seemed to be Jasper, but the scars were different and there were some platinum streaks in the mane that stood along his spine. However, it banked steeply and descended to the edge of the gathering. It moved to stand near Chardonnay and Kejethan. “Nephew,” it grunted in acknowledgement, voice hollow, apathetic. The expression upon the creature’s face suggested boredom or fatigue. “My brother is obviously unhappy,” he murmured, naturally quiet, voice soft, though still deep and malevolent. Fiery eyes scanned the surroundings, the crowd, but he was unlikely to draw attention to himself, other than the monstrous form he currently bore. He would return to the form of a black cat later, but for now, others needed to know of his heritage and have someone to address while Jasper was gone.
Corvette had been impressed with the fighting thus far and found that the aerial fight had command a good deal of his attention, if only because they were flying. He was surprised when Funeral stopped the fights and looked to the leader expectantly. When the announcement came, he offered a very pointy smile of encouragement to Circa, glad that he would not have to worry about such a freakish beast giving out orders. His turquoise eyes followed Jasper’s flight away, realizing the big brute had obviously not approved of the choice. Seemed like a bad idea to act like that, but considering his size, he wondered if Shard could get away with it.
{Yay~ You get to meet Neo ;U Congrats, Walter lady!)

Osic Donovan, Zalui Xemvoi
Osic growled loudly as he and Caylis tumbled about. He hissed a few times whenever she would snag him. Yet he was sure he got her as well. Upon his father's demand, Osic eventually came to a halt and straightened stand. It took him a second to detach himself from the hollowess. When the announcement was made there was no denying his disappointment. But at the same time he was proud of his friend. She had talent for the tactical rather than strength. Probably all the spy training from her father that she mentioned. Purple's gazed up at Funeral for a moment. For the most part he didn't fell let down by his father. On the contrary, he felt as though he let the Dominant down. If either Fune or Cocaine caught his stare then he would nod. If not, then Osic uprooted himself and made his way toward the maroon 'ess. Hey!" He greeted loudly and warmly. All signs of disappointment now gone as if never even there. "Congratulations!" Upon reaching her his shoulder bumped into hers playfully.
The shadowed-demon mix had stayed and observed silently. Giving Circa tips and advise mentally. He knew she could not hear him. At least to his knowledge. Their species could communicate only between their own kind with telepathy. Though mostly images rather than actual words. The older one was the more they could "speak" to others. Yet his daughter's blood was diluted. His own blood wasn't pure enough to make full "conversation". Molten gaze sharpened as Funeral chimed in. The fight's had been short lived there was no doubt but once the announcement was made, Zalui gave a tilt of his head. Gaze examined his daughter closely. For the most part the brute was surprised. There were those more skilled; those with more experience. But the vainer side of Zalui was far from stunned. His children, or child rather, were the best of the best as far was he was concerned. Yellow's met the youth's blue stare. He knew very well what she was looking for. For a few moments he let her wonder, his face emotionless. Finally he took in a large breath and sighed. A nod of approval was sent her way.

Morphine felt the grip onto him, and returned it back with his own claws. His jaw already opened to snag onto Jasper, but the sound of his brother's voice cut him short. Almost as if it was their instinct, he and Jasper both released simultaneously. He dropped to the ground, and trotted towards the scene. He shook his pelt, nodding at Jasper before sitting himself down. He quirked his ears, and looked over at the female. His maw opened up exposing his fangs. It must have felt wonderful for that young female to achieve this position,considering her age it was quite an honor for her. He nodded towards her, "I wish I could have seen your fight, I'm sure you did a great job." Morphine wasn't too interested in the position, although it would have been nice to be Captain. It was just nice to show that he wasn't useless.
Morphine began to groom himself, putting away the loose ends in his fur. Curious, he peered around. Well, shard had seemed to disappear. Too bad, he wanted to give him a pat on the back for such a fun time.

(since no one else added)
Circa Da'ei Xemvoi
A smirk came over her maw as her father gave up the look she wanted from him. She had it now, she felt confident; looking around and seeing all of the older members' various approvals made her heart lift. However, it wavered as her eyes fell accidentally on Jasper's; at the wrong time. They where not happy nor congratulatory eyes, and he made his point by creating a small scene and storming off into the forest in a hurry. For a moment she bristled, he was quite the frightening foe to not have on your side; but it lay flat when she thought about it, and she held her head high despite the inner worry. She was not going to fear him, and she damn well wasn't going to look that way either. It was the leader's choice, and it wasn't even for that long, he would learn to deal with it.
When her ears picked up a familiar voice and her shoulder received a playful bump, all worry was quickly forgotten. She laughed and began to purr, giving the other adolescent a playful cuff. "Thanks Osic!" She chirped, before folding her ears down almost in a brief apology to him, there was no evidence of distraught on his face though, and she was thankful for that. Nudging him with her nose, she smiled happily, "I bet you fought really well, it's a shame I couldn't see."
She waited for a response, but kept note of Funeral's orders, and would soon look up to him and Cocaine, wondering what they would want her to do next. Perhaps talk to her about the position? Whatever it was, she would be up for it.

The Hallowess turned her head to the large feline, she wasn't afraid but she knew that Jasper had to deal with the choice that lord Funeral made. Caylis nodded to Circa's praise to Osic. "He did, we all did great fighting art, that is what we are proud of. I never expected you to become captain, but yet I am proud of you, young one. Good luck, m'friend." she looked around for Iarri, Kazbek and Evastyn. "Have you two seen the cubs?" she asked politely.
Brynneth got from her seat and purred her enjoyment for her friend's place, heading over to her, she flicked her tail for her cubs to praise Circa as she was the temporary captain. "You made quite a fight, dear Circa. Our family is proud of you, right cubs?" she purred as she looked to her children then up to Circa with warm eyes. "We've got to go soon. Edmund, Alfwin, Corona; what do you wish to do?"

(Okay, temp captain has been chosen. Gonna move this to archives as it was the point of the thread. Because I've been personally lazy and lacking muse, the temp captainship MAY be extended to two-three weeks, maybe a month. That also means the vacation will go on for that long as well. Sorry!)
