"You sure you're going to be able to hold on like that?" She asked quietly, starting to head for the door. "You won't fall off or anything?"She would certainly catch him if he did but she was sure falling wouldn't exactly be pleasent, especially if it was as she was taking off and their was danger on the ground.

Limetsu nodded. I'll be able to hold on...if I feel myself slip...sorry if I dig my claws into you to hold on...unless you have a pack or something I could hide in?
It was obvious he wasn't at all used to situations like this, in fact it was totally new to him.

"I could just hold you.. and cover you with my jacket," She said simply. She seemed to have changed back to the clothes she'd been wearing sometime while he was asleep last. Her jacket and undershirt were both close shades of redish-cranberry and fit nicely unlike the clothes she'd been temperarily using. "I think it would be easier."

And more suspicious but...we don't have much choice... Limetsu replied, ready to allow himself to be picked up.
Let's just get out of here...

Zylia lifted her hands to the corner of her neck and gently lifted him off her shoulder. It took her a moment to tuck Limetsu away in her Jack, making sure he was securly placed and could easily be kept there. She soon continued for the door, taking a deep breath as she quickly opened the door, instantly taking a few running steps. Her wings spread and caught the air as she leaped, lifting her upward. She beat them hard sevreal times and picked up altitude, getting as high as she could as she moved forward.

He could hear the growls from below, though knew that the creatures would not show themselves now. One howl, and then the growls began fading away.
I think they're leaving... He said, sounding worried anyway.

"..Where might they be going?.." She whispered quietly, still climbing higher. She was picking up speed as well, trying to catch the proper thermal to propel them further. She felt a burst of speed as she caught one, soon zipping away from the small house they had been in.

No clue...I don't know much about them...They seem to think that I am in league with their enemies...I don't go around trying to provoke fights...just the opposite... Limetsu said, sighing.

"..Well let's.. just hope we can get pretty far away from them as quick as we can.." She said. She kept him tucked in her jacket as she flew onward.
--
Several hours later she was starting to descend. She hoped they'd gotten far enough for now. She'd started to get a tired, a little winded too indicated by a slight panting. She'd been trying to travel quickly, pushing forward instead of gliding along with the wind and so her stamina had been depleated.
Her feet hit the ground lightly and she took a few steps forward before stopping and folding her wings against her back. She opened her jacket and set Limetsu down upon the ground.

Limetsu turned back into his demon form. "Thank you..." He said, bowing his head slightly. "I am sorry...to have dragged you into this..." He added, looking away. "I guess you can't exactally go back now.."

"My choice. Don't dewll on it." She said in a light tone, smiling a little. Her breath came in soft shortly spaced puffs and she closed her eyes, working on catching her breath a little. After a moment the spaces were a little further apart.
"..Think they'll be able to follow at all?"

"I think we can rest..." Limetsu said, noticing her shortness of breath. "If they come this way I'll know."
He sat down against a tree, looking at Zylia. "I still think..." He looked down. "That you should leave me..."

Zylia nodded slightly, finding a place to sit down as well. She put her back against a tree and closed her eyes a little, shifting a bit so her wings weren't wedged uncomfortably.
"..I'd like to help..." She said quietly opening her eyes.

Limetsu kept his head down. "I don't think...you should get involved with me...A life like mine isn't exactally....fun..."
He closed his eyes and let out a deep sigh. He really didn't want anyone getting involved with him, he didn't want someone to get hurt because of him...

"Well for right now i'm staying," She said quietly. "You're still not fully healed.. and in the best of shape..."
She drew her legs up slightly, putting her arms around her knees and lowering her chin to rest upon them. She gazed at him a moment before closing her golden optics.
