Thea smiled wickedly at Verchin over Maryjane's head. Her hand crept to Maryjane's neck, which she took a firm hold of.
The moment the woman's fingers touched her flesh, M cried out in pain, her locket burning white hot on her chest. The little girl was changing, growing older by the second, and her lavender eyes fluttered as her strength left her.
((He-he...))

Verchin immeadiatly set into action. His wolf instinct stepped over his usually kind demenor and he launched himself at the head of the Theaimposter. He lashed with his paws and chewed at the womans face sending small chunks of flesh flying
Silas, hearing the noise came running. He instantly felt weak, but getting close to Maryjane made him a bit worse. He snapped his fingers and then clapped his hands together. Powerful white light shone around Maryjane. The arm that was holding onto the childs neck dissolved much like salt and anything threatining to the girl, did the same if it touched the light.

Seconds later, Julian came huffing and puffing down the garden path, leaping over fallen vines and branches with the agility of a tigeress. She stopped when she saw maryjane, Silas, Verchin, and the woman.
The imposter, who was, of course, a demon, screeched and let go of her victim, disolving into such much fine white dust.
Maryjane fell to the floor and covered her face with her hands, which were long and slender now.
The guardian shrugged off her coat and laid it over the girl's gently hitching shoulders, and looked at Silas. "This," She whispered, incling her dark-haired head at the changed Maryjane. "Is very,very bad..."

Silas let the light around Maryjane move back into the shadows. ''Indeed it is.'' He said shaking off the drowziness he was washed with.
Verchin sat next to Maryjane looking up at her with worried yellow eyes. His furry grey tail was laying flat on the ground now, not at all wagging.

Maryjane's voice was a whisper, and a hoarse one at that. "I'm...I'm...old!"
And she was indeed older, about 16. Her red hair was down to her waist, and her legs were longer and sleeker. The girl had filled out so much that she was hardly recognizable, save those lavender eyes, which were filled with tears.
Julian vicously kicked a fern. "Damn that Atropos..." She grumbled.

Verchin licked Maryjane's hand trying to comfort her. Its going to be okay Maryjane...dont worry. Ill still be friends with you no matter what. He said looking up at her with eyes that told what he said was truth.
Silas ran a hand through his long hair. ''Damnit...'' He muttered biting his lip. ''I might, and this is a big might, be able to restore her youth...However.....I hate to say this, Ill need Sita to be ehre.'' He said looking up at Julian. ''What do you think.'' He asked raising an eyebrow. If she had a different idea, he would gladly accept if it didnt have to do with his dark sister.

Julian sighed. "Though I despise your sister almost as much as I do Lucifer, I can think of no other way. Except for, of course, the fact that Maryjane could stay like this. She hasn't aged so much so that it is a hassle."
Maryjane gave a quavering smile to Verchin and stroked the wolve's head.

Silas looked at Maryjane. ''Its your call.'' He said sighing slightly.
Verchin looked up at Maryjane and tried to make his tail wag.. but it refused to do so.

Maryjane's eyes were dulled slightly as she remembered what Sita had done to Silas the last time she came, and she bared her teeth behind closed lips. She'd never let the Fallen Angel do that to him again, if she could help it. And, perhaps, if she were older, Maryjane would have an even better chance of preventing such things. "No." She said, her eyes returning to their usual luminousity. "I will stay like this."
Julian nodded solemnly. "Ah. Wise choice...but you must keep in mind that people will look at you diffrently now? You are, incidentally, no longer a child."

Verchin lcked her hand and looked up at her. I wont, your still the same Maryjane. Still me friend. He said wagging his grey colored tail happily.
Silas nodded. ''As you wish. I wont go against your wishes. However if there is at all a time you wish to return to your former age, just ask.'' He said clasping his hands together behind his back.

Maryjane nodded and picked Verchin up, burying her face in his furry neck. "Thank you, Verchin. You're a good friend."
Julian looked evenly at both Maryjane and Silas. She blinked, nodded, and simply said, "You may keep the coat. I expect soon it will be the only thing that is large neough for you." Before walking with her usual easy grace down the path.

Verchin gave a wolfish smile and licked her forhead lovingly. His little tail was wagging crazily behind him.
Silas nodded slowly as he looked about a moment. Nothing seemed out of place in the garden now. ''Shall we go now you two?'' He asked looking down at pet and child.

Maryjane giggled softly, then looked up at Silas. Her eyes had not changed at all, and still held that pure and innocent look. "Sure...but where do we go?" She asked, scratching Verchin behind his left ear with her slender, tapering fingers.

Silas shrugged. ''Well, I know they are going to start dancing soon..so we should go have some fun with everyone. Im sure The Victors will be there, along with Karsten and Lily, possibly Jaqcues, Julian even...shall we?'' He asked looking at them with an emotionless expression he always used.
Verchin's tongue lolled out of his mouth in happiness and he shut his eyes rubbing his head onto Maryjane's hand liking the scratching he got from her.

Maryjane nodded again and stood, rather shaky on her new legs. She swayed once before she got her balance and smiled at Silas. "Sure...I can't dance, though..." The girl said, continuing to scratch and pet Verchin.
