The rainclouds covered the midday sun, flooding the river and otherwise making the area very wet. Ryu lay in the mud close to a destroyed house, somewhere between sleeping and death. Then came his first feeling since his soul tore itself from his body, solidifying in this realm. It was the rain. He had never felt it so heavy before... He opened his eyes, and realized that he was human... Mostly human. Slowly he stood up, fully clothed, but at the same time feeling defenseless. Without his scales, he was much weaker, though his magic was stronger. He began to observe his surroundings. In the distance was the destroyed house... He approached it cautiously.

The midday sun left the forest in a cherrier mood than the nighttime shadows, a few creatures bounced about here and there; wild rabbits and 'coons in great numbers. A great bellowing sound shook the air suddenly, as a large beastly hound came charging towards Ryu. It was large, black and white and brown, with large floppy ears and a generally idiotic looking dispotion - wearing a collar of black leather and studs; not to mention a leash that appeared to be attatched to something. That something was getting dragged along behind the beast, bouncing across the roots and various insets and outsets of the forest floor on it's stomach. ((LOL for bad grammar My enligsh teacher would eat me alive if she read my post. ))

Immediately noticing the hound, Ryu faced it. He raised his palm, so that the symbol faced the creature. "Sit." He said, using a form of magic that influenced the mind, if this did not work, then there was always the wall of air he had just created by increasing the pressure in front of him. There was no exact explaination in his mind as to why he had the ability to speak this word, when he had never heard the english language himself, but he was glad that it happened.

What little brain the hound had was influenced by the spell, and the lumberous beast seated itself. However, inertia caused it to slide forward continuously, spraying a mas of the forest floor this way and that before it finally came to a full halt infront of Ryu - tongue lolling out ridicuously.
The person being dragged along the dog seemed thankful for the fact it had stopped, however they made no motion to even attempt at speaking or... moving. Or giving off any signs of life at all.

With his mind, he concentrated on the person being dragged now. Using his fingers as if he were pulling strings, he raised the personage above the ground for further examination. He walked twoard the person, and then began seeing with sound..And since he was focused, he could detect the smallest twitch within their body, such as a weak heartbeat. A side effect of this was that his eyes turned grey, and he would only sense something if it came within three feet.

Their heart was definatley beating - that one was for sure, if anything it was beating too fast to be normal (though who exactly could blame them?). The little boy had a mass of dark hair on his head, ruffled and now twined hopelessly with leaves and brambles and things that he'd have barrels of fun loosening and removing from his locks later on. His face was badly scratched up, bleeding and covered in dirt, but his eyelids twitched and he opened his eyes quickly.
Raile rubbed at his head, at first not even seeming to notice he wasn't standing on his own or of his own will - much more focused on getting his eyes to see straight and in correct color coordination. "Ow...."

Once he confirmed that the boy was alive, he returned to observing his injuries. "Hello little one..Your wounds are many, but easily healed.." With earth magic, he raised the dirt and blood off of the boy's face, which then formed a green sphere. He let it sit in his hand for a few seconds, before taking one finger and applying the glowing green material like ointment. The wounds sealed where he put it, and also disinfected the area. Backing away, he put the green substance, now more gel-like than it had been, in a vial that had been intended for a sample of the darkness that now infected his original body.
"So..What got you in this mess? And what is your name?"

Raile winced when the ointment was applied to his scrapes and cuts, but didn't make much of a fuss - unlike he would have for his parents. He had known this stranger personally he would have been giving him a ridiculously hard time about the goop that was being placed on him.
When Ryu finally put the rest of it away and asked his questions, Raile piped up loudly - "My name's Raile, and I was just walking the dog. He's a big dog, incase you didn't notice, and mom won't let me keep him in the house so I have to leavehimoutinthewoodsandtakehimout-" as he began to speak faster and explain himself his words all melded into a mesh of nonsense.
