Cera didn't know what to do... She clung onto Dhia's hand scared to death... they finally halted right in front of then and the 'chief' gave another order and they surrounded them. The 'chief' gave one last direction and they herded them toward the village. Cera, terrified, just did was she was told and held tightly onto Dhiablos's hand, "Don't let me go..." she whispered to him, her voice was shaky and full of fear.

"No, of course not." A particularly scary-looking Scorchio gave him a snarl. "Never."
They were being herded towards the center of the village, where a large fire was burning. A small techo native was adding herbs and fruit to the fire and chanting strange spells in a strange language. He was carrying a Tall wooden staff and a wooden tiki mask on his face.

Cera's eyes grew wide this was exactly what she didn't want to happen... she tried to resit being herd any longer but a mynci was pulling on her arm forcing her to keep moving. She didn't have a lot of energy but she used what she had to rip free from the natives and scramble away, unfortunatly she had to let go of Dhia, "Come on lets get out of here!" she called back to him but already more pets were advancing onto her...

"Don't worry. I have a plan." he whispered back to her.
Walking casually, he bent down and picked up a pebble smoothly.
"HEY! Banana-brain!" The Mynci (as well as several others) turned, and Dhiablos threw the pebble.
It hit him square on the forehead with a dull plunk, and the Mynci passed out.
There was an awkward silence.
Suddenly, the natives focused on Dhia and let go of Cera, leaving her there awkwardly. "Come on then!" He yelled, running further into the forest, "Come and get me!"
Within thirty seconds, the only people left at the village were Cera, the Cheif and the Witch-doctor.

Cera started to take off after him but about doubled over with pain from her side. The chief sighed, "Why are you doing this?" He asked. Cera jumped back, "You can talk!" She said surprized, "I have been talking this whole time just not in your dialect..." he said with a plane look on his face. The Witch-docter took a step forward and pointed at Cera mummering something in the chief ear, the chief nodded and the witch started to walk towards Cera. Cera turned and started to run where Dhia had sprinted to but the chief spoke up, "I would advise you to let the docter heal your wound..."

Dhia was enjoying himself. The natives seemed intent on either dragging him to the village or impaling him on a spear. He dodged, ducked, flipped (and hurt himself landing) and tripped the natives over. He had no idea what was happening to Cera, and that worried him..

She grudgingly followed the witch to her tent. The tent was filled with lots of herbs and berries and bottles of things that Cera didn't really want to know what they were... The 'doctor' gestured for her to sit down on one of the pillows cluttering the floor. Cera did so and waited for her next command. Maybe this 'doctor' could really heal her... maybe they were going to change her into one of their crazy village people... Cera was comfortable physically but mentally she was laying on sharp rocks...

Perhaps I can lose them in the trees, Dhia thought quickly, running through the jungle.
Dhia sprinted ahead of the crowd behind him, and ducked behind a log, making sure he wouldn't be seen. The natives ran past and didn't see him, just as planned.
He waited until the natives voices couldn't be heard from where he was, and quietly made his way back to the now empty village.

The witch turned around and started putting some of the herbs in a bottle, mashing them to make a liquid like substance. When she was finished she turned around and offered the bottle to Cera nodding her head. Cera made a disgusted face and took the bottle. The slightest stench of it about made her pass out. The witch nudged her shoulder and pointed to Cera side saying something in their native language, "Ok ok I will just wait..." Cera yelled back at the 'doctor'. She plugged her nose and took a sip, the stuff was awful and made her dizzy. She took in a deep breath and chugged it down, she about threw up but managed to swallow it down as the witch nodded her head and took the bottle from her. Cera felt as dizzy as heck and had to lay down, "What in the world did you just give me?" she said to the witch, her eyes getting heavy, but the witch just smiled. Cera cloesed her eyes and passed out...

Dhia strolled through the village, eventually coming to the large fire where he last saw Cera. Since the place was deserted, he followed her footprints marked in the dust, leading to a small hut where smoke was billowing out of the chimney.
He went in and was immediately hit by the strong smell and taste of strong herbs in the air. He glanced around the small hut and saw Cera, lying on a couch and unconscious.
"Cera?!" He rushed over to her, then realised the 'doctor' must have healed her; already her wound seemed better and less painful-looking.

The docter yelled at him in their strange language and waved the sthingy wildly in the air. The chief ran in hearing all of the commotion and looked stirnly at Dhiablos, "She is healing, it would be wise to let her be." He said opening the door flap to the hut suggesting that Dhia should leave.

Dhia stared back at the cheif for a few seconds, then decided to leave.
He turned on his heel and left, giving the doctor the dirtiest look he could muster before he went out, scowling.
He decided to head back to the beach and see if anyone was there from the crash, or any debris that could be put to use. The sand was warm and sunny; it was about midday at the beach. He scanned the horizon, and spotted something just outside of the reef. It was too far away to make out what it was, so he decided to swim out to it.
The shallows of the reef were full of fish of every colour, calm and inviting. He waded into the shallow water, carefully making sure he wouldn't stand on anything sharp, prickly or poisonous. The water was darker the deeper he went into the water, and eventually he was out of the reef. It was a beautiful day, the sun was sparkling off the waves, and-
"Aaah- what the heck was that?!" He'd been bitten by something. Something large with lots of teeth. Dhia stared down towards his leg, trying to make out it - "aaAAh!-" he swore loudly, something he didn't usually do, then next thing he new, he was being pulled underwater. He struggled against what was pulling him down, but he couldn't; he could feel his last breaths leaving him.. his lungs filled with water, draining him, down into the darkness. He felt faint and kinda funny.. relaxed, though he shouldn't be.. the only thing that worried him mildly was Cera, she was sick.. injured.. Then he passed out.
Dhia was being pulled down, deep into the ocean, away from the sun, away from land and away from Cera.
(( he's not dead. =P don't worry, I'm going somewhere with this. ))

Cera jolted upright, cold sweat clung to her fur. She shook her head, her dream was horrible something was wrong with Dhia, she just knew it... She looked around, she wasn't in the same tent she was in earlier... This one was filled with pillows, fur blankets, and other things just used for decoration. "Ahhh, so the princess finally awakens..." Someone said, Cera turned sharply, surprised that no pain followed it, and saw a handsome blue kougra sitting in the corner. He was definitely part of the tribe because of the clothing he was wearing but why wasn't he talking funny? He must have noticed her confused expression, "I am the son of the Chief, Sucule ((don't ask me where I got that from...)), Prince Sucule..." he said putting a lot of emphasis on 'Prince'. Cera slowly started backing away from him and toward the exit of the hut, "Ummm well nice meeting you Sucule but I have other business to attend..." She said getting up and walking toward the door but Sucule grabbed her arm, "Oh you mean your little green friend? Oh he is fine... He is just..." He pauses, "taking a little swim." he said smiling warmly. Cera jerked away and stumbled out of the hut, "Dhiablos!" she called out, several of the natives gave her a funny look but continued there routine, "Dhia?" she called again. "I told you he is fine..." Sucule said stepping out and grabbing Cera's hand, "Here let me give you a tour of the village."
((kk well if your plan is for me to find you, tell me, cause I don't want to mess up your mini-plot ;D))

(( something like that. 'taking a little swim' xD ))
The cave floor slid in and out of focus. Seawater clung to his clothes and fur. There was a light glowing feebly somewhere.
Dhia felt sick and tired. His mouth tasted of salt, and his muscles were tired. So tired..
Hang on, he thought, sitting up quickly, Where am I?
He forced his eyes open, and stared around at the surroundings. The cave walls were dripping slightly, faintly blue. Wherever he was, it was under the ocean.
He couldn't remember anything. Nothing. He knew his name, and someone pink and fluffy. It gave him a good feeling. There was something about a plane, and flying over the ocean.. then nothing.
He shrugged and put it out of his mind. Dhia would worry about that later, right now, he needed to find out where he was.

Sucule pulled her through the village giving her every bit of boring information he could fathom about every little thing. Cera didn't really pay attention to him or anything he was talking about, her mind was worried sick about Dhiablos... They stopped in front of another house, "This is..." Sucule started saying something about his old relatives who did something good for someone and changed the lives others or whatever. Cera sighed and looked into the wood, "Hey, how about you show me around the island now..." She said thinking that maybe they would come across Dhiablos... Sucule looked at her in a 'I know what you are thinking' kind of way and Cera gave out another big sigh...
