There was another being drifting alongside them in the darkness. Seeming appearing out of no where, how did she go so undetected? The aura, the stench about the gold and black nightmare was wrathful, her words empty and full of demons as she circled round. Crimson eyes narrowed, the reflected no fear however, but a type of lust. To make another bleed, to hunt, to kill. Cannons shifted, as the painted maiden standing aside him began to show her nervousness. Audits pinned against his skull as he shifted his glance between everyone here, and at the same time not wanting to take his eyes off this minuscule threat. But what is that thing?

"Kahlua." Nato whispered, but the demonic nightmare edged closer to them. Speaking a childish riddle laced with laughter. It was creepy, and Nato just couldn't handle to keep steady anymore. His weight shifted, as he moved closer to Ayelet. Crimson oculars glaring upon the golden nightmare that drifted before them. And all too suddenly, it moved swiftly and charged at Kahlua as she screamed for them to run. Nato hesitated, hooves buried in the moist earth. Eyes forcing away and turning to Nasreen and Ayelet as he pushed in their direction stomping his hooves, hoping to aid their movement. The glass maiden echoed his name loudly over the mists of the edge; and for once in his long life- He cared about those he didn't know. His dignity didn't want to leave the painted maiden to deal with this creature.

But he'd have to think swiftly.

Rearing up to the sound of Kahlua's painful scream, it brought him flashbacks, emotion of hate and pain from his past. A shrill of his own echoed through the night as he turned and looked back to her. Lobes lifting from his head, in awe as he watched the hooves of the demon connect with her shoulder. That sound, of hoofs to flesh was all to painful. He cringed, and swallowed deeply as he released a confusing grunt while turning back to Ayelet, letting his mind do the thinking he pulled his steps into motion. "This way," His voice trembling- not with fear, but worry. It was still soft and assuring, but loud enough to mean business. Pulling ahead of Ayelet; he lead her to the opening in the walls of the Edge. If she walked through, She would be safe here, wouldn't she? His mind raced, wondering where his daughter was. The beast shook his head vigorously, anger no.. rage building up inside. He couldn't let that thing in here, for Nyx.. for Lace.

"Please, Ayelet- Nato spoke as he turned to her, concern in his eyes. "you and Nasreen need to flee as deep as you can into the Edge." Eyes shifting back through the glass and looking upon the silent companion that stood out there with a demon. "I can't leave Kahlua out there, I can't let that thing in here." His coat quivered with adrenaline, as he lowered his head. And walked back through the gate wall; hoping that the two mares he just left behind would be safe. Although he wasn't going far.

The pace of the hunter quickened; his eyes resting upon the damaged Kahlua only becoming even more enraged, as he turned to the demonic nightmare that stood painted in black and gold. He was confused, why wasn't the painted mare running; why didn't she move.. "Leave her alone Demon." His voice a low rumble, a growl as he flattened his ears against his lowered skull, eyes looking to the painted mare, as the scent of her blood laced the air in his lungs.. "Kahlua.. go why don't you run?" He questioned harshly, stepping slowly closer to the mare, easing in with caution. Hooves seized their motion, as he got a closer look at the obsidian beast, what was this.. thing.

"LEAVE HERE!" He screamed to the demonic Hybrid.

[ooc: Nato can be attacked if you like. But it's not in his nature to run away from a fight. :3]

OOC EDIT: As we talked about no one is really going to reply to here because either they have made it to the sanctuary or have ran off. Kahlua said she pretty much started crying and ran away xD So, Nato is just going to wig out and panic back into the walls of the Edge looking for Nyx.]
