Alright, how are you?

Well I'm glad you're feeling better today

I have a feeling it's going to be a slow day, Fade going to miss a few hours at the start, and Turtles most likely not going to be here because of the storm.

You can be sketching the design for me too if you get bored, Shadow XP

I will Lilly xD detailed ones take a lot longer than Chibi do

(That's fine Shadow, take your time X3 )

Boo's reaction to Dreameater was exactly what Fiona expected...
Though, at the same time, she was slightly surprised. She'd thought maybe the Nightmare actually did care about Boo, but now she had evidence against that. The Elemental pushed her way past Eater and into the room, placing herself between the Nightmare and the dragonet. "I shouldn't have trusted you. That whole 'guardian' thing was a ruse, wasn't it?" She growled at the Nightmare.

(Blood and Galaxy do you need me to re post?)

( @shadow, Naw, I'm good. ^-^ I made things easy and wrote down my reply last Monday. I just gotta go find it. XD)

(haha ok @Galaxy xD)

(Are we still going Me, Fluffy, Shadow?)

(I forgot but if that is the thing okay I'll write up a post x'D)

(I just got home, I need a repost!)

(That's the order we were going in last time XP )

Boo was filled with fear with the Nightmare in the room, she darted behind and peek behind her legs at him "Your a N-Nightmare! You trick and lie to get them to do stuff for you, then eat them!" She said with a trembling voice

(ok Blood! And welcome back!)

Alexandrea noticed the change in his tone, "I couldn't imagine being under someone's complete control..." she puts her elbow on the table and rests her cheek in her palm, a small grin on her face, "Good thing I don't die easily"

(I got it!)

( right when I get it to x'D)

Crystals slight curious expression fell away and she shook her head a bit, in a sad disbelief like way. "That must have been rough.." She said, though she related to it in a way. She could tell this was something that still had an effect on Crimson, just by the way his whole demeanor seemed to change on this subject. "That's not a stupid question, Crimson," she replied softly. "..and yes, I have. Both just feeling alone and actually being alone.." (Found it buried in my notes this time.)

(Nevah's so cute here!!!!)

(I've got friends over so I can't attend yet but we're chilling right now)

(Have fun Fade)

(Thanks Blood!)

Malice's smirked with a slight chuckle at the Phoenix the shapeshifters last comment, he paused and look at his drink realizing he was feeling the effects of the alcohol //I'm saying to much // but when he looked to Alexandrea he didn't care. " I was made by Soledormir to use as he please, but over the centuries I have grown a will of my own and now I feel something else..." his voice tapered off at the end.
Malice took another drink from his glass and lean his elbow on the bar turned look at the Alex "so what about you? You know about me now, so tell me a little about yourself" the Nightmare king smirked

(hi fade!! No worries, ^-^)

Dreameater stares wide-eyed at Fiona for a moment, fear gripping him in a way like never before as he sputters, "Wh-what!? No! It wasn't a ruse! I /am/ her guardian! I..." He leans around just enough to look at Boo as she speaks, and--is he shivering with fear himself? "I don't understand..."

"Something else..." Alexandrea murmurs, studying his features as the Nightmare King drank, she shakes her head slightly, //What am I doing!? He's one of the Forsaken Lords!// she remains quiet for a bit, watching him and feeling her face heat up, //But he's kinda cute...// she sighs lightly, taking another sip of her drink. "Me? I was reborn from another life, typical phoenix stuff" she says, "I was killed in a previous life and then reborn in Euphoria, I wandered for thousands of years alone, not knowing who I was or what I was supposed to do...when I heard Skorri calling for me" she pulls the chain around her neck, pulling out the Key of Skorri, "Funny....a phoenix would call another phoenix"

Eira rested one hand on Catch's hand and the other on his shoulder, leaning to look into his eyes. "It's not too late, though." She smiled softly. "Let's take a vacation from saving the world - spend some time together, just you and me. We can go to the festival, maybe even have our wedding. Just for a month?" Eira whispered.

Fiona drew her great-sword and narrowed her eyes at Dreameater, "I have to admit, you're pretty good at acting like you care, but I'm not going to let you hurt Boo."
She would've loved to fight him right at that moment, but there was still something in her that made her stay put. The Elemental wanted to believe there was still hope for Weaver, at least, for Purity's sake.

Crimson looked up at Crystals words a little surprised but not at the same time, he looked down at his hands again "I guess that something we have in common....I won't press you to tell me more, if you do want to " he said with a soft Smile. Getting a little embarrassed he looks a way again "do you know what time it is? Have you eaten anything?" He inquired

Malice listen studying her features as the Phoenix shapeshifters spoke "I see, Euphoria is a interesting place." He stared and blanked when Alex show him the key and memories of his past life came back "Skorri a strict Warrior but as your kind would say she had a Compassionate Heart, it's not surprising she call to you " he said then nodded over at Neveah who was passed out with her face down on the bar "she took the halfblood in when her kind Exiles her " Malice's turned back to the bar "she was always getting on Faolan's case" he murmurs a little bitterly and took another drink from his glasses.
Malice glanced over at the key "you do realize I could take that from you?" He said sternly but there was a hint of a teased to his tone

(I'd join in, but my county is in a tornado warning right now and we'll be in a hurricane warning soon.)

Beautiful! :) God Bless!

Alexandrea glanced back to Nevaeh passed out, giggling at the sight of her friend face down on the bar. "Skorri sounds like she was an interesting person" she looks back to Malice as he teases her, "Oh? In your drunken state?" she slurs over her words, "I'd like to see you try"

(Turtlee!!!! Don't worry! Just please be safe!! ;-; )

(Turtlee, you're alive ;w; *hugs*
That's fine, just please stay safe!!!)

(I'm glad you're doing alright, Turtlee! Please stay safe!)

Dreamcatcher look back into Eira eyes and smile " i like the sound of that, we could use a break from everything" he placed on hand on top of her "after 4 years we can finally spend some time together" he said Softly.

Catch got up and help Eira to her feet to " we're do you want to go first on our vacation?" He asked with a grin

Boo had her ears pulled back and was trembling. she was to scared to say anything // Hiiro said that what they do, they act nice thing eat them//

Malice's was drinking when Alex challenged him. He roughly set down his drink making it clink "Ah!" He trun in his seat and placed on hand on the bar and lend close the the Phoenix shapeshifter to we're he was only inches away " who drunk say I'm?, I could take it, if I wanted " He slurs with a grin

Alexandrea's face heated up when he put his face inches from hers, she leaned back a bit with a sly grin on her face, "Oh? Definitely not drunk with the way you're slurring" she giggles. Alex hops off her chair, swaying a bit before gaining her balance, "Game on old man, catch me if you can" she bolts from the bar, outside and running/stumbling down the street

A look of anger briefly flashes in the Nightmare's turquoise glowing eyes, and he growls as he replies, "I'd never hurt her!!"
... But that anger is quickly replaced with fear once again as he looks back to Boo. For Eater, it's like trying to solve a puzzle that's deliberately missing pieces, lacking grief, the only emotions he has left to fill its void is fear and anger... "Boo, you--you know I'd never hurt you... I'm not like the other Nightmares, remember...?"

Malice's eyes slit with amusement at the Phoenix's challenge, he got up and pulled on his jacket before taking off after her, he didn't stumble as much as Alxe did but it was clear that the king of Nightmares was drunk

(In case Colors dies at the worst time, I'll say it now, but I'll have to leave for a while like I usually do :p )

( it's kinda weird Rping a drunken Malice x'D)

(I mean, I've still got some time now, but I'll probably go before I can reply XP )

( ok Lilly, thanks for the heads up! )

"It seems so," Crystal replied in a sort of 'lost in thought' tone. "Thanks, I guess.. and I won't press you to tell me more either." She said kindly. Crystal kept her gaze downward slightly but every now and then glanced up. "Um, I'm not sure of the exact time, but it's late. And no, I haven't eaten since this morning. ...What about you, have you eaten?"

Alexandrea kept giggling as she ran, "M-Malice is drunk" she slurs, "A-and you call yourself King of Nightmares...what you get drunk off of? Two drinks?" she teases as she runs, tripping over her own feet as she stumbles along

(Lol)

(I bet @Shadow XD )

(Oh my goodness Malice is drunk)

"'Not like other Nightmares?!'" Fiona repeated in disbelief, her own bitter anger bubbling to the surface again, "I don't believe that for a second!" She took a step forward as if trying to push the Nightmare further from Boo, "You said it yourself earlier--you EAT people! And I've seen MORE than enough proof to know that's true!" She paused, "...So maybe you should tell me. What makes you so different from any other Nightmare?!"

(Thanks for the heads up, Lilly!)

Eira wrapped her arm around Dreamcatcher's. "Right now, I want to go to the festival," she whispered. "It's almost over, and I haven't attended it in..." //Years,// she though sadly. While she was working as a musician and entertainer, Eira traveled to cities all over the Land of Dreams, but she had refused to visit Howaito lest her face be recognized. Now, she could finally enjoy it without fearing discrimination.

Crimson gave a 'oh really look' and snorts " how can you save the world will only one meal?" He said smartly. Pushing his lips and folding his arms " no...not really since this morning either, I wouldn't call the breadcrumbs, peas and what ever the Fairfin was given me to eat food, while you guys were gone"
Anna pop her head around the corner " hay! My hands are only so big you know!"
Crimson snapped his head towards the directions of Anna Voice "What?! I thought you left, nosy little Firefly!"
Anna giggled " what else is there to do? Hmmm, someone has to look after you kids" she teased

Crimson raised from his seat " I am not a child! " He shouted angrily.

The Fairfin giggled waving her paw "relax relax can't you take a joke" she giggle.

(It feels too quiet, how is everybody doing today?)

(Alright, doodling right now)

(How are you?)

(I'm doing alright, but I'm gonna pretty busy for a while.
How about you, Fade?)

Malice did a sarcastic laugh "what? Only two drinks? I'm not a Sliverblood Light weight like the fox....you must be blind or drink to!"He shouted his slurs words. The Nightmare king stumbled as he ran but was gaming on the Phoenix shapeshifter

Alexandrea bursts out laughing, "I'm not! I have perrrrrfect vision! It just happens to be a lil fuzzy now" she squeals as she notices Malice gaining on her and starts to really pump her shorter legs

Dreamcatcher smiled warmly at Eira "as you wish" he whispered back to her, and gently pick up the Griffin shapeshifter Bridal Style and give his wings a pump he took off into the night sky heading to the lights of the festival.

The moonblood had been thinking about what his fiance said earlier "Eira...we're have you been all this time?" He asked with a timid tone

(That's good you two! I'm doing alright, albeit worn ^^)

(if it's quiet and pull out the rocket launchers of confetti!)

(*Pulls out rocket launcher and attempts to use it*

...WAIT, how do you use the harmless confetti kind?

*Explodes*)

Eira wrapped one arm around Catch's neck and rested her head against him as they soared through the night sky. She bit her lip as she considered his question. "I... was wandering. I didn't want to return home after... after I became corrupted. So I went from town to town, making a living off of street performing and whatever jobs I could find." She sighed. "At times, it was enjoyable, but other days... it was so hard just to earn enough food for myself, let alone lodging. And I felt lost and afraid - I didn't know how to live away from home, from my family and friends. I definitely learned how to be an adult," she remarked, smiling a bit.

The little Dragonette look up at the one she thought that one time was her guardian, she was gonna say something but her fear and doubt was confirmed by the Elementals words about the Nightmare, Boo let out a fearful squeak "he was right...you do eat people" her voice trembled

(Yay, rockets!! Is there such thing as a harmless rocket? Even if it has confetti?)

Malice was focused on catching the Phoenix shapeshifter, he reached out his hand and grabbed Alexandrea the sudden stop made him stumble in his drunken state, and cause Alex to. the Nightmare king caught the Phoenix before she hit the ground and studied his footing to no fall on her, "not bad for a old man"he painted with a grin

Alexandrea squeaked as he caught her and made her stumble with him, squeezing her eyes shut for a moment, expecting to hit the ground. When she heard him speak, she opened her eyes, a smirk spreading across her face, "I'll admit it" she says, "Not half bad"

"The one meal I had today is better than all the ones I didn't get in passed days." Crystal responded. Shrugging to herself, "Well, at least you had something, even if it wasn't fit for a prince." She smiled a small smile but jumped when Anna spoke all of the sudden. She looked back to the Fairfin then turned back and laughed quietly after Crimson got mad. "She was only teasing," She said lightly.

Catch was gliding in a current was he was going over everything Eira just told him //she been living a different life because she was afraid of what would happen if everyone at home found out about her corruption...// Having mix Feeling, he was sad that she would think that she needed to hide form everyone, but he also understand why she did to. " it had to be so hard out on your own like that, in fear, but you don't have to live in that anymore" he whispered sympathetically.

Getting close to the Festival music could be heard, Catch tilted his head "you said you were a performer? Did you play your violin" he asked as he looked for a place to land

The Nightmare king smirked and pulled Alex up all the way and into his arms "what did you except for the king of Nightmare?" Taking one of his hands Malice brush some of the Phoenix's black locks over her shoulder, he was been sly and was trying to Steel the key

Alexandrea's face is as red as an tomato as she has her hands on his chest, //I'm touching him! Oooh I've had one too many drinks...// she stares up at him with furrowed brows, eyes narrowed, "I'd expect him to catch me and try to steal my key from me" she moves on of her hands and grabs his hand that just brushed her hair back, "You'll have to do better than that" she says tiredly

Crimson folded his arms and scowled " the little Firefly doesn't need to be listening in..."
Anna giggled at the other Dragon.

Crimson trun back to the Human girl and cleared his throat "as I was asking before I got interrupted" he
snorted at Anna then looks to Crystal
"do you want to go get something to eat?"

(Back!)

(Welcome back, Lilly!)

Malice smirked being caught in the act of the crime " you did challenge me to take it, didn't you?" He teased with his slurred words. The Nightmare king didn't pull his hand away but held his gaze on the Phoenix " it looks like we got each other" he pulled Alex even closer with his other hand, and grins

The sky was pitch black out as a small figure darted through the streets, her long whip like tail knocking over boards and plant pots from the windows, she flinches as they crash to the ground. "Well so much for a stealthy approach Rosie" she groans, continuing along to the Kingdom's edge and hopping down the large rocks, one at a time. "Maan why do I have to be so small?" she complains right as she feels someone's snout ram her off one of the rocks.

Tumbling down with a couple startled squeaks, she lands on her back on the next large rock below, winded and glaring up at the dragon who'd just nudged her off. "Zarah, that wasn't very nice" she wheezes out as the black and white dragon lands beside her, "I got tired of yer whinin'" Zarah rasps, flicking the small pink dragon with her tail, "Get a move on, the seaslugs move faster than you do...and complain less"

"They don't even talk Zarah...and you winded me" Rosie wheezes out.
"Stop your whinin'" Zarah hops down the last couple rocks to the entrance for the Underground Kingdom
"I don't whine" Rosie whines.

(welcome back Lilly!)

Alexandrea squeaked as he pulled her even closer, "Looks like we're at a stalemate then" she gives a nervous smirk, staring up into his mismatching eyes, //Note to self, don't drink, ever again// she tilts her head slightly, "What do we do now? Malice?"

(Man it's quiet, heloooooooooooo)

(hi)

(Would it help if I blew up again?)

(I fell asleep. xD

Welcome back Lilly!)

[Song I'm listening to for Eater by the way: "Lullaby for Mergo" from Bloodborne]

At this point, something makes itself clear... It isn't that he merely wanted to protect Boo--it's that he has to. Nightmares have their sickly instincts, to kill the ones they loved, to prey off innocents, but Dreameater's desire to protect this dragonet is like an added, unnatural instinct that conflicts with all his others. Something he can't ignore... and something he can't resist.

As of now, the only good it's doing him is giving him a headache as he steps back, away from Fiona. "I... But I never gave her over to Malice..." Eater says, his voice quivering as he places one hand on the side of his head, "D-don't you remember, Princess? We got away from him... and what about the other things we did together?"
For being a big, bad, scary Nightmare, he seems utterly terrified by this ten-year-old orphan girl.

(you spelt hello wrong, blood)

(ROSIIIIEEEEEEE

Thanks guys! :D )

Omen had been watching from the rooftops with a grin on his face //it's rare to see Mal drunk...it's kinda funny, to bad I'm not allowed to drink// he sighed

-

Malice tilts his head and thought " seen I'm a Forsaken Lord and your a candidate of the Kings, I should kill you if Soledormir command it" he moved his head so his face was only inches away " but he not here, is he?" He said with a smirk. Malice's released his hold on the Phoenix

-

Omen eyes darken when Malice's said that, the Vaseterm cheerful expression fadde
// But the eyes of Soledormir see everything...// Omen open his wings and disappeared Into the Night sky

(hi turtle!!!

Lol Fade! You play a me x'D)

Crystal looked up at Crimson when he spoke to her, and nodded her head. "Sure, that sounds nice." She said, a light gladness to her voice, then stood up also.

(Coffee time!!)

(I'm glad you're still alive Turtlee ;w; *hugs*)

(Yep, I'm still alive so far! The hurricane's only a cat 2 now but we're still getting really bad wind and rain, and a tornado touched down not that far from me.)

(Rosie's a cutie!!

I guess I need to start setting my alarm to every ten minutes, huh? XD)

(Heloooo Turtlee)

(it good that it went down inside since it's touch land, but that's still really scary. ;w;
Thank you for keeping us updated! *Hug*)

(I'll probably be verbally hugging you a lot Turtlee, hope you don't mind ;w;

... I just wish I could send actual hugs through technology...)

(or drink pineapple juice Fade it's better then Coffee )

Alexandrea half closed her eyes as Malice leaned closer, breathing in his scent, when he released her, she stumbled a bit but straightened herself. "Hmm" she rubs her chin in thought and starts back to the bar, to retrieve her friend.

(I'm sorry that you guys had to change plans because of me! I'd love to stay but the hurricane is pretty bad right now and it'll only get worse throughout the night, we haven't been directly impacted yet. But thankfully it'll only be a category 1 when it directly impacts us.)

(And it's okay Lilly, I love hugs <3 And hello to everyone who said hi!)

(Ooh that sounds yummy

Ahh Turtlee's alive!! That's a big relief, but still please stay safe! ;u;)

(Wait how long have you been here, Turtlee? I totally missed you. X'D)

(Oh, maybe 10 minutes? And it's okay xD)

Eater's reactions just kept confusing Fiona more and more. She thought he would've snapped, that he would've attacked by now, but to her surprise, he never showed any signs of it.
In fact, he was acting completely the opposite way she thought he would.
Fiona took a deep breath and, despite still feeling completely enraged, stepped back towards Boo. She turned and looked at the little dragonet, her expression silently saying, 'Don't worry, I'll protect you.' The Elemental then awaited the dragonet's response to the Nightmare.

(Aaah, sorry, I'm totally late, but hi, Turtlee! I'm really glad you're doing ok! *hugs*)

(Thanks Turtlee!
Lol I'm not the only one who was late xD)

(don't worry about it turtle! I couldn't do the vision anyway today, and I know I speak for everyone that we wouldn't want you to miss a big event.
It's just a casual RP day.
Your safety is more important I am glad for the update so we know your ok ;-; *hug*)

Rosie rolled over, hopping down the last of the rocks and landing beside Zarah. She follows the older Xanos into the undergrounds, "What if a male sees us? Or a guard?" Rosie asks, trotting to keep up with Zarah.

Zarah snorts, "They'll hear us first with the way you yak on and on and on and onnnnn" she grins back at Rosie, "Don't worry though, I haven't bathed in weeks, my stench will keep them at bay" the elder gives Rosie a crazy grin, her eyes looking in two different directions.

"Ewwww" Rosie giggles, "Zarah that's nasty! Also that explains the bad smell following us around" she wrinkles her snout in disgust. Soon they both reach a dead end, Zarah sweeps her hind leg around, hooking Rosie and kicking her in front of her, "Open it brat"

"Yes your Majesty" Rosie rolls her eyes and gets onto her hind legs, touching the cave wall and sliding her paws across it, there's a click and a hidden door opens up. Rosie walks into it and Zarah squeezes in after her, the door shuts behind them shortly after.

"How did Hiiro ever fit his tubby butt in here?" Zarah snickers, Rosie rolls her eyes as she leads the way down the tunnel, "We have human forms Zarah"

"Well I don't" Zarah huffs, "Yes you do, I've seen it" Rosie says as they enter a large open room, the walls jagged like a cave. Moss and weeds lined the walls and the once intricate patterns were covered up and faded away as Rosie trotted to the center of the room.

Crimson smile at Crystals reply, he went to go but paused and the back of his head awkwardly " umm...I uhmm can you..." The dragon shapeshifter Face trun red with embarrassment that he had to even ask " could you help me?" He mumbled, he didn't know we're he was or could he see

(I like how you write mini novels, Blood!)

(Lol, thanks, I'm doing it because idk xD
I hope you're enjoying Rosie though, I'm working on Zarah's ref)

(Rosie is hugely entertaining, and I can't wait to see Zarah!! x3)

Malice Follow behind Alxe at first when she left " just like that, your going to walk away?" He said, as he catches up and walks by her side

(Oh my gosh I'm so out of it, I've been waiting for a reply when I was the one needing to reply)

(Rosie is absolutely adorable! I'm definitely enjoying reading the mini novels so far. x3)

"I have to retrieve my fox" Alexandrea says, looking up at him, "Though I'm really tired and seconds from passing out, I need to make sure she's safe from Omen" she slurs over a couple words as she speaks

(I love Rosie! Zarah sounds cool, too, is she some kind of ship captain or something? XD

Lol, get it together, Fade XD )

(hahaha it's ok Fade X'D I'm patient

Rosa is absolutely adorable! X3)

(Zarah's just old and crazy lol)

"Yeah," Eira whispered, smiling as she curled up closer. "Yeah, I did play my violin. But last year it got smashed when a fight broke out on the street where we were performing. I also did a lot of dancing, and sometimes even acting." Her free hand grasped Catch's shirt, squeezing tight. "I... almost regret some performances now. I don't know, it just seems wrong now... At least I won't be doing that anymore."

(I also just ate way more watermelon slices than is necessary with considering it... Help meeeee)

*without

The Dragonette look up at Fiona and nodded her head slightly showing that she interested, swallowing her fear for a moment Boo build up our courage to reply "Hiiro said that's what Nightmare do, they trick people then kill them like what Malice did to my parents " her voice trample as tears gathered in her eyes " was everything a trick? Why do you Nightmare with me?"

Malice stopped abruptly "Omen" the Nightmare king bolted ahead of Alex not even saying anything else, he knew what feed Omen hungry and why he haunted his own kind //d.mn it! I should have never left her alone!// He was hoping he make it before the Royal Vaseterm.
-

Omen was sitting at the bar next to Neveah he had a drink in his hand but haven't had anything yet.

Rosie was lost in thought, thinking back to when her and Hiiro use to sneak away down to these tunnels when they were kids. Always when they were supposed to be learning, only to get yelled at later by their parents. And the way their friends would join them, they'd make bets, whoever got caught first had to do everyone else's chores for a week, she almost always lost, unless it was hide and seek.

Rosie's attention was brought back to the present when she heard Zarah belch and it echoed through the empty cave, she pinned her ears back and watched the elderly dragon with a mildly annoyed look, "What was that for?"

"I wanted to see if my voice would echo" Zarah says and grins down at Rosie, "You could have just yelled" Rosie shakes her head, "Eww now all I can smell is your bad breath" she gets up and darts down one of the tunnels leading to the Palace. Zarah trailed behind her, giggling.

It took a good half hour, of Rosie struggling to climb over rocks and Zarah telling tales of how she'd scare away potential mates...by being herself...

Until they reached the door they needed to, Rosie opened it and squeezed into the vast, empty halls of the palace. Zarah squeezed out after her and fell forward on Rosie, "OH MY LORD YOU SMELL ZARAH!" the pink dragon shrieks from under her, causing Zarah to laugh

Alexandrea bolted after the Nightmare King, picking up on his panic, she raced behind him, managing to keep a good pace with the Nightmare King as they raced to the bar, //Nevaeh!//

"I know other Nightmares would do that, and I wouldn't trust them either..." Dreameater begins, sitting down on his knees to, perhaps, seem less threatening, then continues, "But I swear it wasn't a trick! I've never wanted to harm you, because I'm your guardian! I promised that I'd never leave you..."

The moonblood frown his jealous protective side show a little, he pushed it aside just as fast as it flared "you have to do anything like that anymore, I'll take care of you " he said sincerely.
Spotting a place to land just on the rim of the Festival, Catch flap his wings and touch the ground, people nearby gawked at the two entrance, but went on to their own things. The moonblood gently set down his fiance and Smile " I hope you don't mind still dancing with me at least, and maybe we can find you a violin for what you want to do "

(I love Rosie and Zarah so much already X'D )

(I'm glad xD)

(Blehhh, were in a flood warning now)

(brb)

Eira nearly scoffed. "Of course I'll dance with you," she remarked, taking his hands and reaching up to kiss his cheek. "If we find a good violin then I'd love it, but for now I'm perfectly happy without. Let's just enjoy each other right now."
After flashing him a smile, the shiftress began to lead Catch through the festival, allowing them to see the hanging lanterns, smell the vendor foods, and hear the distant ring of music.

(Stay afloat Turtlee!!

Ok Blood!)

(Agh, a Tornado has been spotted again. Goodbye, for now!6

(Bye Turtlee!!)

Crystal had almost forgotten about Crimson being blind during their conversation, so when he asked for help, she sort of froze. "Oh, s- sure." She said. Thinking for a second, Crystal hesitated then carefully reached over and gently took one of Crimsons hands into one of her own. "Is this okay..? It's the only way to help that I thought of.." She asked, looking over at him.

Malice burst through the door, seen The Vaseterm sitting with his back turned to him next to the halfblood "Omen dark star, step away from Neveah now" he growled, the Nightmare king cloud since the fox was alive and he plan on keeping her that way until he no longer need.

" I see you been having some fun Malice" Omen said with a dark distorted voice.

Fiona just watched and listened, trying to comprehend what the heck she was witnessing. She still felt like she shouldn't trust Eater one bit, but another side of her thought maybe Weaver was still in there... Trying to protect Boo in any way he could. "...When did you make that promise?" She questioned, raising one eyebrow at the Nightmare.
The Elemental then crouched beside Boo and gently patted the dragonet's backside in an attempt to comfort her.

( stay safe turtle!)

(See you, Turtlee! Stay safe!)

(Please be safe, Turtlee ;n; )

(Oooh, Fiona asked a good question)

The moonblood chuckled at Eira " I was teasing" he smiled " I like that"
Folding his wings tight against himself hoping no one will step on the long ends that trail behind them, Catch followed along side his fiance taking in all the sights and sounds of the Festival and this time in his right mind and with his preferred company. "That smells good , what do you think?" He asked

Eira scanned the stalls until she spotted where the tantalizing scent was comic from. "They're kabobs - that sounds fantastic," she breathed, stepping up to the food stand and inhaling the meaty scents. Her eyes glimmered excitedly. "I haven't had one in ages!"

Crimson face was red when Crystals took his, he couldn't think of a different way himself. "No...it's fine, this is better then what Hiiro did... just don't run me into anything, I-I...I'm trusting you" he mumbled not looking in the Human girl directions, mostly out of embarrassment and he admitted having to trust someone else

Boo listen to the pleading Nightmare before her, there was a part of her that wanted to believe him and give Eater a chance, but Hiiro warnings echoed in her mind and the memory of her parents.
The Dragonette look up at Fiona feeling comforted with her pets, but her question made her think //when did he promises me? I know Waever did, but so did Eater but why did he?// Boo look to the Nightmare wanting to know the answer

Dreamcatcher shakes his head and Chuckles " alright kabobs it is then" he went up to the counter and ordered enough for both of them, the moonblood pull out his wallet that so happens to shift with him with every human form of his, and paid // it's nice to actually do this and not be stealing for a change...//he shakes his head thinking about his wild self, and glad he doesn't have to wearing anymore. Once the order was ready Catch took it and hand one to Eira
( I have one had a kabobs one in my life...it was good though, I think, I was little )

( wake me up inside!
Call my name and Save me form the dark)

"When? It was sometime before Terra died," Dreameater blurts without thinking until after the words have left him, but then he furrows his brow and considers it more. //Wait... but that can't be right... that wasn't long after I killed Weaver... I didn't even see her that night... I did ask Mina about her, though...// The purple Nightmare scratches the side of his head in confusion as he corrects himself, saying, "Actually, I... forgot? I can't remember when... but, I know I did make that promise, and that's all that matters."

(Aunt Lucy had a baby
And she named him Tiny Tim
She put him in the bathtub
To see if he could swim
He drank up all the water
And he ate up all the soap
But when you try to swallow the bathtub sink it when I go down his throat
Here comes the doctor
Here comes the nurse
Here comes the lady with the alligator purse)

(Lol XD)

Eira smiled at Catch as she accepted the kabob and took a bite. "I haven't eaten since the biscuits this morning," she realized. An excitement the shiftress hadn't experienced in years was rising up in her. Cheeks flushing happily, Eira took Catch's free hand and led him down the street again, searching for something else to do.

(I like that song)

(Oh my goodness I'm listening to Evanescence right now)

Alexandrea came up beside Malice, hearing Omen's distorted voice sent a chill down her spine. She steps in front of the Nightmare King, approaching Omen and summoning her scythe. She points her blade at him and growls, "If you hurt Nevaeh, I'll take your head demon"

( I randomly burst into song, if you all did know by now )

(I mean Bring Me to Life, I never heard the second X'D )

(the second one is a fire camp song, it has several versus to it when is Robinhood, Sherlock Holmes, and Jesse James)

(Huh XD )

Rosie wiggled out from under Zarah, staggering ahead on all fours and snorting to clear the foul stench in her nostrils. Zarah in the meantime had stood up after and wandered down a hall, "Yoo hoo! Damien!" she calls, Rosie's spines prick in alarm, "What are you doing!? Calling him?" she hisses, fear lacing her tone.

Zarah grins over her shoulder at Rosie, "I'll keep pretty boy busy while you work~" she says and Rosie bites her tail, "Yeah right! Damien will turn you into mincemeat! Come help set up the portal, I don't know where Hiiro is!" she turns and darts off down the long and wide hallways.

Zarah sighs, "But we were meant to be" she follows Rosie, a wicked grin on her maw, "No one was meant to be, not with you anyways" Rosie shudders at the thought of Zarah having a mate, Zarah cackles as she catches up to Rose.

Rosie finds the room they're looking for, wiggling herself under the large steel door like a mouse would. On the other side, she could hear Zarah start singing...terribly and sighed deeply. Hooking her claws on the bars, she worked her way up the door unlocking it, when it opened and started to creak, Rosie felt the door get flung back.

She let out a startled yelp as it was and ended up pancaked against the wall and door, "Zarah..." she mumbles and the elderly dragon snickers.

Catch chuckled and took a bite out of his too, he realized he hadn't eaten that since then to " it's really good!" He grinned. The moonblood ruffle his wings with excitement when Eira took his hand he felt a happy sensation as he looked at all the Festival attractions " what do you want to do know" he asked almost with childlight giddiness

"That... How is that possible?" Fiona muttered to nobody in particular, thinking about Eater's first statement. //...Did Weaver make that promise before he turned into a Nightmare?
That means, maybe... There's still hope. It's not much, but it's something.// After staring at the Nightmare for an uncomfortable amount of time, she finally came back to reality. "Hm... Alright..." She said, still seeming more than a little suspicious.

Eira shared in her fiance's anticipation as she looked about. "Maybe we should find a treat next," she suggested. "I always loved the funnel cakes!"

The people in the room attention was now drawn to the 4, the man in Black burst through the door, the crazy lady with a scythe, the guy with a demon voice and the fox everyone was fighting over who was passed out.

Malice's could taste the fear in the room and was Drawing power from it, even so the way Omen was right now he knew was not good." Carefully Alex, He not one to take lightly"
-

Omen keep his back trun to them and chuckled distortedly " now, if I was going to kill her /yet/ she would be died before you two got to the door" raising a glass in his hand " besides I doubt you both could do anything been in there drunken state" the Vaseterm glance over his shoulder with a smug smile, his red eyes piercing the Phoenix " that by chance isn't a summon weapon is it?" His distorted voice oozed with sarcasm

Alexandrea heard Malice, but kept her eyes on Omen, her eyes narrowed, despite being drunk, her silver eyes were sharp and focused on the Vaseterm before her. "That's true, then why? Why haven't you killed Nevaeh? It's what you do right? I mean you tried to the other day" she presses her blade to Omen's neck, the blade was cool, but extremely sharp. "It is a summoned weapon and you know it" she curls her lip at him in disgust, "I'm guessing you have the power to make it disappear, fine with me, I'm better at hand to hand combat"

"Um, I won't ask, but don't worry, I'm nothing like Hiiro.." Crystal replied. She got a little of a nervous feeling after Crimson said he was trusting her, but she couldn't understand what for. She glanced down at their hands for a moment, cheeks tented pink, then turned slightly, "Come on.." she said lightly, then began leading Crimson out toward the inns exit. "Did you have a specific place in mind?" She asked.

Catch fluttered his wings excitedly " that sounds like a great idea!.... I think I know where one of the vendors is" he leads Eira thought the crowd of people enjoying the festival as well, and made it to the place he mentioned he did the same and ordered and paid, handed Eira the tasty treats.
" it's been so long since we been here together " he said, but remembers that it was always with there families and friends, this was the first time just them.

(This is how we rise up
Heavy as a hurricane, louder than a freight train
This is how we rise up
Heart is beating faster, feels like thunder
Magic, static, call me a fanatic
It's our world, they can never have it
This is how we rise up
It's our resistance, you can't resist us)

Eira began to nibble on the dish as she answered. "Yeah... I miss this place so much." She sighed as she watched the townspeople walk about, smiling and laughing. She leaned against Dreamcatcher and smiled up at him. "But it'd never be the same without you by my side."

Rosie put her hind paws to the wall, forepaws against the door and pushed until she fell onto the hard tile floor. She groans and holds her tummy, "By the end of this, I'm gonna be a Rosie pancake" she rolls around for a couple seconds, groaning while Zarah set things up.

"Ah good, then you'll have something to feed Hiiro, heaven's knows he eats like a piggy" Zarah says, mimicking the way pigs sound. Rosie rolls her eyes, "Har har, not funny Zarah" she gets up and trots over to the older Xanos, helping her paint the teleporting symbols on the floor.

"Are these the right coordinates? I've never seen this before" Rosie looks confused as she glances to Zarah, "Do pigs fly?" the black and white Xanos asks, "Uhm...no?"

"Then you have your answer!" Zarah squeals and continues painting symbols, "Wait what? That didn't answer anything, if anything I'm now more confused!" Rosie whines and Zarah slaps her with her tail, "Whad I say bout whinin'?" she scolds, "No whining, sheesh you're worse than my Mother was" Rosie responds with heavy sarcasm

Boo was getting more and more confused, she didn't know what to do, a part said give him a chance and a another said he won't eat you if you do, the little Dragonette look up at Fiona and whispered " what should I do?" She was only 10 and this was a big decision

(*rolls around*)

(I love Zarah)

(She's quite the character isn't she? xD)

(She's definitely unique from most other personalities! It makes her so much more interesting to watch)

The young Nightmare sits and quietly watches Fiona and Boo, feeling mixed, shifting emotions, and waits for something to be spoken...

Omen's distorted voice chuckled he didn't Flinch away from her blade against his neck "hmmm, thought I am hungry and it grows more the closer the time comes for Soledormir return and not as many have a life span of a Vaseterm does, but maybe a Phoenix? But I came to talk, so my Hungry can wait" Omen smirked and muttered a few words, then took his other hand and snapped his fingers dispelling the Phoenix's scythe" yes I can...and I'm sure you are, but the difference is you died before and me? I have made worlds fall" he trun around in his seat the face the two, his appearance was slightly different with red markings along with his eyes
Malice boldly Step beside Alex and narrowed his eyes at the Vaseterm " this is not Omen, but the one Inside him "

Alexandrea held in an angry squeal, shaking her fists at her sides as he made her scythe disappear, //How annoying!// she continues to glare at the Vaseterm and then glances to Malice as he joins her side, "What do you mean? The one inside him...." she thinks for a moment, "Do you mean that pink demon that came out of him...Killy? Was it?"

Catch took pics of his treat and ate them.
The moonblood place his free arm around his fiance " and with out you" he said Softly, watching the people go by.
The sound of instrument in singing was getting louder as people started to gather, a parade was on it's way down the street, the moonblood looked to Eira with sparkles in his eyes " would you care to dance?"

Fiona gave Boo a brief, worried look. "...I'm not sure... But whatever you choose, I'll make sure nothing bad happens to you." She whispered back with a little, comforting smile.
The Elemental then glared at Eater from the corner of her eye, "You try anything and I'll chop you to pieces." She growled at the Nightmare.

Crimson Follow along with Crystal, he Shrugged his shoulders "I like food that taste good, I don't know, what is it that Human like?" He said

Eira blinked up at Catch, cheeks flushing as she returned his gaze. "Right here?" she said, eyes rounding.

(I misread the post and thought Crimson just asked Crystal what humans taste like...)

(I would ask that too)

(hahah X'D)

(Of course you would Fade X'D )

(XD)

"oh, yes Malice you know who I am, but you can't say now can you?" Omen distorted voice mocked.

The Nightmare king rocked his jaw and growled deep.the seal keep him from answering.

Omem look back at the Phoenix shapeshifter and tilted his head with a dark grin " uh, yes you do remember me, a little different now but I'm still the same, I feed on the life and make it my own"

Rosie froze, fear shooting through her core as a demonic roar split the silence in the palace, seeming to shake the walls, ceiling and floor. "G-great Zarah, you woke him up" she trembles and speeds up painting the symbols. Zarah purrs, "It's beautiful, music to my ears" she pokes her head out the door and notices the hallways are darkening, "Yoo hoo, lover boy, I'm waiting~" she calls, waving a paw to the black mass building up.

Rosie puts her paws over her eyes with a groan, "Why did I invite you again?" she slides her paws down her snout, not realizing she'd just smeared paint over her face and snout. "Because you love me and I'm your only friend" Zarah grins, prancing back in the room and helping finish the portal.

The symbols light up and the center of it distorts, the floor swirling around and increasing in speed as the portal starts to open. Rosie feels a bit dizzy watching it open up, "Zarah are you coming with me?" she asks, "Nope, I've got a date" Zarah's grin widens as she sits on her haunches.

The sound of heavy and rapid footfalls could be heard rushing to their room, Rosie squeals with fear, "Thank you Zarah, stay safe" she hops into the portal and Zarah scratches away the outer line so it closes once the small dragon is gone.

The door to the room distorts and looks like it's starting to melt as a jet black dragon enters, he's covered in many scars, some old and some new. His large muscled frame blocking the door and peering down at the odd black and white dragon before him, his red eyes seemed to pierce the darkness, he curled his lip in disgust at the sight of Zarah. "What's filth like you doing in my palace?" he growls.

"Oooh flirting already? You'll have to buy me dinner if you want the goods" Zarah purrs, inching closer to him. Damien makes a sound of disgust, that could easily be mistaken for a growl as he backs away from her, "Not on your life Zarah, get your filth hide out of my Palace"

Zarah inhales in a dramatic way, "You sure know how to woo a woman" she pretends to swoon and Damien backs out of the door, slamming it on the elderly Xanos inside and heads away from it. One of his servants comes up to him, "I want my palace sanitized, top to bottom, once that thing..." he flicks his ear back at Zarah, who's now peering out of the door, grinning at Damien with her crazy eyes, "Leaves" he growls, "Also find out what she was doing in here"
~The end for now~

( what would happen if Boo pass out?)

(That would be hilarious X'D

Eater: DON'T LEAVE ME ON A CLIFFHANGER BOOOOOOOO)

(Oh my goodness Zarah x'DD)

Alexandrea made a face of disgust at Omen, "That's disgusting, using lives to fuel your own, especially your own kind" she glances to Nevaeh, who's peacefully asleep. "What did your own kind ever do to deserve you killing them? What did anyone do to become life fodder?"

(I'm going do it x'D)

(Oh no. x'D)

(That was awesome Blood! *high-fives*)

(I'm glad you liked it xD *high-fives*)

Boo held her head " this is making my head hurt" the more she thought about it the more it made her headspin, and it didn't help that it was way past the Dragonette bed time " I'm going to sleep on it" she said and collapsed

Catch chuckled at Eira " why not?" He teased and seat down his plat and got up and put a hand out with a big grin

Crystal couldn't help but to chuckle a bit. "I think we all like food that tastes good." She said, leading them out the entrance and along the sidewalk. "Hm, well humans aren't different from anything else. I mean, at least when it comes to food I don't think we are. As for what we like.. We like anything cooked."

Eira smiled wide and took Dreamcatcher's hand, laughing as he pulled her into a dance. Hands clasped with his, she moved her hips to the beat of the music, heart pounding in tune with the drums. Her sparkling eyes met Catch's and she smiled wider. //I've looked forward to this too long..!!//

"I've already told you, I'm not going to," Eater replies to Fiona, barely keeping in a frustrated growl.
Then, he turns to Boo, anxiously waiting for her reply... but when she suddenly passes out, he tenses up somewhat. "Wait!" Dreameater objects, although it's no good. The Nightmare sighs and looks to Fiona, mumbling, "... Well, maybe she'll come around in the morning..."

" nothing, but they just like the others Soledormir has groomed,in the past, it has been this way for hundreds of thousands of years, he picks a word and give them a gift that will destroy them in them in the end, to feed his hunger....the gift to the Vaseterm was long life, one to be taken to satisfy his hunger, but my world gone now and he had his eyes on this one "he glanced over at Malice "really we are not that different, I was made to feed Soledormir, but he found a new feel with the Dreamers one that he uses the emotions "

^Omen

Alexandrea growls, "Well I hope you know Soledormir will perish, the candidates will destroy him" she says determinedly, moving beside Nevaeh and putting a hand on her friend's back. The key of Skorri still dangling around her neck, not hidden at the moment.

Fiona caught Boo in her arms when the little dragonet passed out. "Haha... Smart choice, Boo..." She chuckled quietly. The Elemental slowly floated upwards and over to the nearest bed, then gently set Boo onto it and covered her with a blanket.
Then she looked at Eater, "...What are you going to do, then? Just sit around and watch her all night? You know the others wouldn't allow that... And I shouldn't either." She said quietly as to not wake Boo.

Crimson chuckled" yaeh, cooked food would be good" he followed a long sniffing the air as he went to smell anything that at least smell good " what that smell?" He asked

Dreamcatcher swayed with Eira listening to the Beat of the Music, his heartbeat dance the long with the sound, and he could help but hum the tune. The moonblood Twirls Eira around to the beat and then pulled her into his arms and sway with her
.//I always wanted to do this!//
Others people were dancing to the music playing

Boo was out like a light

.Omen notice the key and smirk " not with out all of these" he lunged forward and grabbed the key of Skorri around the phoenixes neck and rip it off her

Dreameater finally stands up as Fiona tucks Boo to bed, but he doesn't try to get any closer to either of them. He crosses his arms as Fiona speaks to him again, to which he quietly replies, "I'm not going to stay in this inn, that's for sure, but I'll stay nearby, and if anyone tries to take Boo while you're all sleeping, I'll rip them a brand new face."
His glowing eyes look back to the sleeping dragonet then, and after a brief moment, Eater asks with a hint of unease in his voice, "... Do you think she'll still want me as her guardian...?"

Eira laughed as Catch spun her, then put her hands on his shoulders when he pulled her close. Her skin was hot from all the movement and excitement, but she didn't want the moment to end. Colors flew past her vision and music rang in her ears. She began to hum along as well, closing her eyes to enjoy the song and her fiance's presence.
Finally, the music ended and the festival-goers clapped and cheered. As a quieter song came on, Eira looked up at Catch, panting for breath but smiling wide. "I don't want to stop," she breathed.

Alexandrea reacted quickly, despite being fueled by alcohol, which was quickly becoming rage. She managed to seize one of his horns as he'd lunged, reaching to take her key back, she stops, "I'm not some little kid" she hisses, "You'll have to do better than that" she slams his face into the countertop, knowing she had control over him as long as she held his horns.

"Malice, get Nevaeh out of her, before things become nasty" Alexandrea says, trusting the Nightmare King to at least keep Nevaeh alive, ripping her key away from Omen with her free hand and stuffing it in her shirt. She hisses to him, "Must suck to have such an exploitable weakness"

Fiona sighed and shrugged, "After the way she reacted to you? I'm not sure." She said bluntly. "I don't think she really knows how to feel about you anymore. I know I sure don't.

...At least it's nice to know you actually care about her." The Elemental hated to admit it, that was obvious enough, but she thoroughly believed it had to be true.

(Just a heads-up, I'll be going to bed shortly!)

Crystal glanced over at Crimson, "I don't know, let's find out." She continued to walk until they turned a corner then seen what was probably the source of the smell- (change anything of this if it needs it.. I have no idea what I'm doin x)) A decently sized food stand with a few tables and chairs set up in random places around the front on it. Crystal explained what they had come across and slowed their pace a bit. "Is this what you smelt?" She asked.

(Did Shadow pass out, by any chance?)

(Probably working on a long post)

(*starts snapping uncooked noodles one at a time*)

(I sent her a text, she might be dead)

And again, this young Nightmare gets mixed feelings. Part of him feels insulted that Fiona is using the word "care" to describe him, as he associates that word with the nasty fluffy things like love, but... well, he can't deny that he does care about Boo's safety, only because of his duty, he thinks. On top of that, the idea of Boo rejecting him as guardian... it scares him.
"Well... You...! J-just make sure you feed her in the morning, and /don't let Hiiro cook,/" Eater finally says, growling a bit since he doesn't really know what he wants to say to the Elemental, but on his way out the door, he says one last thing to her, "I'll be following you around for a while... You may not see me, but I will always be there... Fuzzball."

(Careful, Fade. Uncooked noodles can be dangerous...)

(*stares intensely at Fluffy*

*snaps another noodle*)

(I'm gonna wait another ten minutes, but if she's gone then I'll go to bed)

(Lmao she texted me
She'd passed out)

(Oh boy

*Puts on a helmet*

Don't wanna get assassinated by any rogue noodles.)

(Lol)

(Lol Fade XD

Unless Fiona explodes or something, I've got my boy all set up for next week, so I doubt I'll do anymore RPing tonight :p )

( ahhhhi did a boo and pass out with out morning even for me!)

(Haha XD )

(*throws broken noodles into pot* There will be no survivors.)

(Aaaah, there's one thing I REALLY wanted to do with Fiona before they left Howaito, though!

...Nobody ever introduced her to cotton candy at the festival. ;w;)

(Welcome back shadow. XDD You gotta start the ten-minute timer ritual now.)

(Hmmmmm I've kinda got an idea we could do, I'll talk it over with Shadow, Fluffy XP )

(...And at the same time, I'm pretty sure I shouldn't stay up too much later.)

( @Fluffy You could at least get Fiona set up tonight, we can talk during the week and maybe find a way to squeeze it in? I've actually got another idea already, and I think it's better than my other one 'XP

We'll have all week, after all, so there's no pressure or anything.)

Catch was having a blast dancing with Eira, his heart race in his chest and he painted and laughed then the music stop, the moonblood pulled his fiance clothes and grind " then we don't have to" he slowly sways as he hum a song, the light of the Festival dance in his eyes as he looked into Eira

( @Lilly
YEAH, LETS DO IT!

Who needs sleep anyways?!)

( thank you Blood for waking me up! XD I'm glad I had my cell trun up )

(Lol, you're welcome :D)

Eira smiled up at the Moonblood, her face still pink. //I love him so much...!//
Exhaling softly, she slipped her hands under Catch's arms and onto his back, then rested the side of her head on his chest. She listened to his heart, which was still racing from their previous song. The griffin thought back to her conversation with the Dreamer and smiled inwardly. "This is much better," she murmured.

(I'll be heading to bed though. xD Thank you for the fun session! See you all later!)

(Goodnight Fade!)

( @Fluffy Fade. Fade needs sleep.)

(XDD)

"Right, don't worry, I'll make sure she doesn't eat Hiiro's cooking." Fiona said, waving surprisingly nonchalantly as Eater left. "See you later then, you... Grumpy... Purple... Thing." She huffed, seeming too tired of being angry at him to show it in her voice any more... Or think of a decent degrading nickname to call him. That wasn't really her thing, anyways.

Once Dreameater had left, Fiona floated over and sat down on the floor beside the bed Boo was asleep on. She was too restless, frustrated, and confused to really sleep, and she couldn't help but wonder where everyone else was...
...She didn't want to leave Boo either, though...

(Goodnight, Fade! <xD)

Crimson couldn't see it but he could smell it, and it was getting stronger we're ever the Human girl was taking him, finally the scent come to it source and the dragon shapeshifter got a a little excited about it "this is it!! I don't know what it is but it smells good!" He looks in Crystals directions " what is this place?" He asked with a smile

( The way to get a quiet girl to talk is putting her with a blind guy x'D)

(Goodnight Fade! :3

And I meant you can get to bed too Fluffy, maybe get Fiona set up for the next day, and we could talk about doing a sort of mini scene sometime during the week XP )

(good night Fade! It was fun! (Sorry for falling asleep x'D))

(Good gravy I'm too slow)

(Did you miss my comment @Shadow?)

Boo was dead to the world with her sleep

(Oh, ok! Well, I dunno if what I wrote can qualify as setting it up, but I'm just gonna go to bed and talk more about it tomorrow, I guess...

I'm very tired, and will probably stop making sense within a few minutes. x'D)

(I'm working on it @blood it's longer )

(Ok, we can just continue this tomorrow, that's a lot simpler and easier and overall better than both of my ideas X'D

Goodnight Floofers!)

(Goodnight, guys! Thanks for the awesome roleplay. x3

See you all later!)

(I bet, okay @Shadow xD)

(Goodnight Fluffball!)

Omen body froze up when his horns was seized by the Phoenix shapeshifter, he let out a pain noise doing this face with smash into the countertop.

Malice quickly darted over to the halfblood and pick her up in his arms, he trun to Alex " the long his horns or under someone else control, the quicker his real self will show " he warned her.

Omen was painting as his body heaved, his red eyes looked into the Nightmare king "just as much as you know what I am, I know what you really are Malice and how to remove you from your frame for this " he threatened with a distorted voice. Malice's didn't reply but the brief look like on his face show fear before he took off out the door with Neveah in his arms.

Omen glared up at Alexandrea as Shadows started to drift off him

(good night Fluffy!)

(I've replied for Eater on the painting of Void by the way, Shadow, we can continue that tonight too if you're up for it :p )

"I'm aware" Alexandrea says as Malice warns her, she hears Omen's threat to him, feeling more loyalty to the Nightmare King right now than the Vaseterm she was seizing. Alex raised her fist and gave a good few, hard punches into the back of his head, holding nothing back as she beat on him. "You'll pay for your actions, I won't let you hurt Faolan or Nevaeh" she snarls and releases him, quickly bolting from the building, into the streets to have more room for what she knew was coming.

( ok sounds good lilly I can hop back and forth x3 )

(How on earth can you type so fast, Blood!? That should've taken longer X'D )

( tag Lilly )

( I have known idea how she does it but it almost not Human x'D)

(Lol ¯\_(ツ)_/¯)

The hits only made the monster inside stir more, just as the Phoenix left the room Omen roared and burst into Shadows Killy form and smash through part of the building, the creature let out a blood curdling Roar with his rage at the Phoenix shapeshifter.

Alexandrea shifted as Killy broke through the building, taking up into the sky to keep a safe distance, she knew how this beast worked and knew he couldn't fly after her. Pumping her four wings, she circled around and casually glanced around for Killy's anchor, "Aww is the big bad pink worm mad?" she teases, "What cha gonna do ya big baby?"

"It's food, of course." Crystal laughed. "it's a decently sized food stand and I agree, it does smell good." She looked at the stand and tilted her head slightly, quickly reading a menu sign. "Looks like they have a small selection of a little bit of everything." She said, looking around a little before turning her gaze back to the excited and smiling Crimson. "I'm pretty sure the food tastes as good as it smells."

(Haha, that does seem to be very true XD)

(Tag Shadow)

The abomination trun in his spot keeping the Phoenix in his site, he spoke in a dark language and by his tone it wasn't anything nice to her.
Drawing in a breath Killy shot beams are dark energy from his maw at Phoenix.

Omen was in his trance with Killy summoned, his eyes were glass over and he just sat there amongst the rubble or the bar

Alexandrea was counting on Killy to fire his beam at her, she swooped down, eyes locked on Omen and clutched him in her talons, in one fell swoop, she'd picked up the outcast and took to the sky. She flew higher and higher, soon losing sight of Killy and chuckled, "What will you do now?"

(tag Lilly )

Crimson was practically drooling taking in the smell " well if that's the case I'll try what ever you pick" he glanced over at the Human girl with a playful grin " but if I get sick, I'm blaming you" he teased Crystals, the red Prince pulled out a wallet from one of his pocket with his free hand and gave it to Crystals " that should have more then enough currency in it" he said.

(Hahah xD)

(Taaaaaag!)

Killy monstrous Roar echoed though the night sky with his rage, Taking his claws his master building near him when the Phoenix stole his anchor.

Omen was still in his trance, but he blinked a few times as his eyes started to trun more amethyst, a pain expression crossed his face "ouchie! Alex! Why you have to smash up my face for?" He whined in the Phoenix's talons.

-

the Beast paste looking up he couldn't see the Phoenix but could feel his anchor with her. Killy marking glow as he spoke in the dark language.

-

Omen took a sharp breath as his eyes trun and glasses Over again, his markings glow bright " you might be out of my reach, but that doesn't mean the halfblood and the Nightmare are, and I will trun there body to ash" Omen said with hallowed distorted voice.

-

Killy turned his eyes from the sky to Direction in the street he knew the Nightmare king sent well and could since his Darkness, the abomination when on the hunt for the Nightmare king and the halfblood

(tag Lilly!)

Alexandrea listened as Omen spoke up, almost feeling bad for hurting him when he whined, //I don't mind this Omen// she thinks as she flies, her heart drops as Killy speaks through the Vaseterm.

Her silver eyes dart back and forth panicked as her mind races, //Focus! There has to be something connecting Killy and Omen// she starts to glide, moving the Vaseterm around in her talons, //The gems on his horns allow him to see visions, I don't think those are it...// she turns him around, studying the large gems on his wings and giving one an experimental scratch with her talon, //Nope//

On the verge of giving up and about to turn around and go try and rescue Malice, is when she notices the gleam of a gem over his heart, she rips his top off and notices the dark markings and gem embedded in his chest. //Bingo!// she holds him in one talon and stretches out her other, then hooking her claws in Omen's chest, attempting to rip out the dark gem, "You leave them alone or I'll take this gem right out of Omen" she threatens, digging her large, sharp talons in further, tearing his flesh.

(I replied Shadow, but now that Eater-Not-Eater's out of the way, I'll save Real Eater's reaction for tomorrow, I'm falling asleep X'D )

"I think you'll find your meal more enjoyable if you pick it. You don't want me to pick anything you eat, I like boring-ish foods." Crystal said, walking them over to the stand. "Blame me? Well, If that's really how you want to do it." She said innocently in a joking way, playing along. "Really though, they have.." she started listing off things from the menu sign.

( lol ok lilly! Sleep well! I'll do some more plotting with you to tomorrow ,)

Even though Omen was in a trance his distorted voice screamed out in pain when the Phoenix claws torrent into his Flash.

-

Killy hear Alexandrea threat, he normally didn't care what happens to his anchor, he didn't belong to the Vaseterm in the first place and only tolerated his temporary Frame but he was still connected to Omen and felt pain course through him the closer the Phoenix got to his anchors gem stone. Killy stop his hunt for the moment and looked up and spoke again.

-

Omen stop screaming when his markings glow and he spoke again for Killy " what guarantee do I have that you will cease your assault if I stop the hunt?" He asked with hollered tone.
Shadows started to drift off of Omen as Killy was forcing one of his other familiars to wake up.

Alexandrea felt bad as Omen screamed, she hated inflicting pain on others, she noticed the shadows pouring out of Omen and started to glow bright, striking him with a pulse of light and causing the shadows to dissipate.

"My word is my bond" Alexandrea says, "I am a phoenix of the Heavens, I do not tell lies. My word is this, you stop your assault tonight and I will stop shredding your vessel, for the next 24 hours, I will hold onto Omen to make sure you harm no one. I will even heal him myself, but you break it, even once and I will mercilessly turn him into crow food" she hisses, "Do we have a deal, demon?"

Crimson chuckled " and they call me stubborn" he taste. And listened as the Human girl started to list off what was on the menu, they didn't have any fancy like he had at his Palace but there was a few things that sounds interesting " I'll try the hamburger, that sounds good" he looks to Crystal " I hope it's good, if not it's your fault for making me pick something I wouldn't like "

(aaaaaand, I ship them)

Killy place back and forth he let out a horrifying Roar that shattered the windows of the nearby buildings. He looked up at the sky with hate.

-

A look of Pier hate was on Omen Face as he curled his lip " you have a deal" his distorted voice said bitterly.

Killy dispel into Shadows as Omen draw a sharp breath this marking and eyes return to normal, and he blink several times, well panting. He whimpered form his chest hurting and shivered Feeling the cool night Breeze on his Expo skin "this hasn't been a fun night..." He pushed his lips with a frown

( lol it Blood approved? x'D )

Alexandrea let out a relieved sigh as Omen returned to his regular whiny, goofy, self. She gave him a sympathetic look, "I know dear, I'll get you patched up soon" she knew he was the enemy, but she couldn't help but feel guilty as she'd given him his terrible wounds and she'd made a bond for the next twenty four hours.

Not looking back, she headed out of Howaito, //I'll reunite with everyone later, sorry Nevaeh, you'll be stuck with salty for a while// she flies over the forests outside Howaito and finds a place to land, gently setting Omen down and shifting to her human form. The phoenix walked over to him, her skin split as she started to heal him, kneeling beside him, "The pain will be gone soon, but for the next twenty four hours, we're gonna be buddies Omen" she smiles warmly.

(It is *stamps*)

"I could believe it.." Crystal said. A Woman came up to the front of the stand and was already writing the order. She looked at the two curiously and smiled, "And you, young lady?" She asked. Crystal thought for a second then said, "The chicken, please." The woman wrote it down then turned and walked off. Crystal glanced over, "I still don't see how it'd be my fault, but okay."

The woman soon came back and sat the food on the counter, Crystal paid for it and the woman said, "Have a nice night." then turned and walked off again. "And here we are," Crystal said, "Food."

Omen pick up a twig and fiddled with it " yeah! I finally get to spend some time with one of my friends!" He grinned. The Vaseterm look down at his bleeding wounds as Alex was healing him, the mark of Soledormir was part of his war paint on his chest were his Guardian Stone what's embedded, unlike the forsaken Lords who were branded with there mark Judas was born with it. He looked up at the Phoenix shapeshifter with a goofy apologetic expression "Sorry about ruining your date with Mal....I really thought he was going to kiss you to..."

(Lol, well look at that, It's been approved with a stamp and everything. XD)

Alexandrea giggled as he referred to her as a friend, //He's like a child, it's kinda cute// her face turns beet red, "H-he was not gonna k-k-k-kiss me!" she stammers, her eyes wide, she'd accidentally stopped healing him for a moment but got back to it after a few seconds.

( lol xD the CC the Crystalcream? CrimsonCrystal?)

Crimson snickered at Crystals reply and waited until she ordered and got the food he stood there "fantastic, but are we going to standing or go to one of the tables? Because I'm starving and what to see if I like hamburgers or not"

Omen started to laugh but it hurt his chest so he didn't do it very long " no, he likes you, I think he going to kiss you, but I think he what to know you, you and not see the Echo of his past life....it was pretty funny seen Mal loosen up like he did tonight he doesn't smile that often... like almost never NEVER like that why I know he like you" the Vaseterm rambled

Alexandrea thought about what Omen said, //I guess that makes sense// she pictured his playful grin in her head and her face heated more, shaking her head, she looked up at Omen. "So we're friends? Why don't you tell me a bit about yourself Omen? For starters, your real name?" she smirks

"Pfft, yeah yeah.. Here, you'll want this back" Crystal said, handing back Crimson his wallet. She grabbed the food and lead them over to one of the tables. Once over at the table, she let go of Crimsons hand and sat the food on the table.

Omen tape the index fingers together and push his lips " I'm not supposed to say my birth name... But it's Judas, dark star, but you don't have to say the dark star at the end of it, it can just be Judas, but most just call me Omen or whatever they like "

Alexandrea finishes healing him, looking exhausted from doing so, "Judas? I don't know why you aren't supposed to say it, but I think it's a lovely name, as you're probably aware, my name is Alexandrea, but you can call me Alex" she smiles at him, then gently takes his hand, tapping his wrist with her index finger, strange symbols appear, circling his entire wrist, they also appear on Alexandrea's as well. "There, I will know wherever you go or if you try anything funny while I rest" she winks, "You won't escape me"

Crimson took back his wallet and put it back in his pocket, and followed the Human girl and sat down, he smirked at Crystals then pick up his hamburger and took a big bite, the dragon shapeshifter chews it for a bit before swallowing, he looks at Crystals with serious almost angry expressions " I have you know...I'm letting you off the hook... " He tased and grinned then started to laugh " this delicious!" He took another bite, then looked in Crystals directions " oh your chicken?" He asked before eating again

"It's something my mother ingrained in me..." He whisper. Seen the seal the Phoenix place on him
"Ahh, Claver girl... Killy resting now so I don't think much will happen tonight but I am hungry so I might find something to eat if that ok with you?" He asked rocking back and forth on his heels

Alexandrea stands up now, stretching, "Depends, what are you going to be eating?" she raises a brow at him

(Just take a moment to imagine someone angrily eating a hamburger.. xD)

Crystal sat and took a bite of her food as she watched Crimson, awaiting a result. His first reaction caused her to raise an eyebrow, but soon a smile washed over her lips and she laughed also. "Thank goodness, for a second there I wasn't sure what to expect. She giggled. "And yeah, the chicken is great too." She said then ate another bite of said chicken.

Omen rise his glove hands and grind " glove on food, Killy can just wait but / I'm/ hungry, even though I get energy from the moonlight a guy still got to eat" he grinned, and put down his hands " I can only absorb someone life by my bear hands or my bite, it works faster if I do both thought, so can I get something? I can even bring you back something if you want" he grinned

Alexandrea narrows her eyes at his grinning and rambling, "Fine" she walks up beside him and hooks her arm through his, "But I'm coming with you" she smirks, "No people eating on my watch, try it and I'll punch you again"

( he was just wanting a reaction from her, the the the problem is he can't see her facial expressions xD)

Crimson chuckled " I was just teasing with you....that good, maybe I'll try there chicken next time " //she likes chicken good to know// he smiled at the thought. Then finished his meal " know what do you want to do?... Or is it to late for anything else?"

Omen did a mock hurt expression " now I'm hurt, you don't trust me? I mean what if it's only a little person? " He teased.
The Vaseterm pick up the Phoenix shapeshifter and pumped his wings taking to the sky and headed back to the city " I figured we just pick something up and go back, or we can go to Mal place and crash he loves when I stop by!"

(how are we still awake?)

Alexandrea squeaks when he picks her up, reaching her arm back to grip his shirt, only to remember she'd ripped it off and was trying to grab his skin. Her whole face heated with embarrassment, "I'm sure he'd love it if you dropped by" she says sarcastically, "Let's just get a bite to eat"

(I'm pumping myself full of caffeinated soda pop)

Omen Face trun red when he felt Alex grip his chest, he forgotten he didn't have a shirt on. " At least you're hands aren't cooled " he taste with a goofy bright red look. He flap his wings " yeah, I don't think he would be in a good mood if he saw me right now...but food I can do" the Vaseterm was flying over the City when he started to descend seen a food stand

( just a heads up though I could pass out at any moment now )

(Never, set your alarm, we be up to the crack o' dawn feller)

Alexandrea only felt more embarrassed when he talked about her hands being warm instead of cool. She settled for wrapping an arm around his neck as he flew, lightly so she wasn't putting pressure on him as he started to descend, she felt her heart flutter in her chest.

"Next time? Haha, maybe you should, I'd recommend it." Crystal said then finished up also. She looked around a bit, "Hm, I'm not sure.." She shrugged, " I don't see many people on this corner, so it might be pretty late. Of course I suppose there's always something to do in a place like this." She glanced around again, "Though I guess it wouldn't hurt to start heading back."

Omen landed and set Alexandrea down be then wrapped his arms around himself to cover his chest, he didn't like been so exposed expecially with his markings on his skin and gem stones on his chest " I'm not really decent right now, to order anything, you know the no shit, no she policy" his face was bright red

Crimson nodded and cover his mouth and yond " yeah, that sounds like a plan" he gets up and holds out his hand " lead the way" he smiled softly

Alexandrea studied him, thinking a moment, //He's not the first winged humanoid I've covered up before// she takes off her jacket so she's in her muscle shirt. She starts to speak in a foreign tongue, not chanting, more singing as her jacket gets a bit bigger to fit his frame. She then slides it over him, it dissolves passed his wings and then takes solid form once draped on him. "It's a bit feminine, but you'll live, now come on" she says, taking his hand in hers

Omen raffle his wings and fiddle with the rim of the jackets " it's still flashy so I like" he grinned taking the Phoenix hand " just don't let Mal know or he might think we're on a date" he snickered " I wouldn't do what besides I like Mina" he rambled as he followed along

( *morning fighting sleep*)

Alexandrea lead him along, refraining from rolling her eyes as he rambled, she tilted her head with a frown as they approached the food stand, "Isn't Mina Hiiro's partner?" she asks, "Do you mean you have a crush on a taken female?"

Crystal stood and walked over to Crimson, once again taking his hand. She turned and started to walk back the way they had came with a small smile of her own. Eventually the inn was in sight and getting closer. "Well.. ...I didn't let you walk into anything." She said.

Omen face heat it up and he looked down " I don't know...I really like her but she does have a partners....I only felt this way with one other Female but that was a really really long time ago..." His voice tapered off as he was lost in thought. His attention was pulled back to the food stand the Vaseterm look at the menu and pick what he wants then look at Alxe

Alexandrea listened to him, "I can't say I understand, I've never had a partner before or love interest...but I am starting to understand the feelings of attraction" she goes quiet as he points out what he wants, //He's exactly like a big kid// she smiles, paying for both their meals and pulls out the stools the stand has, bringing them over to a table and setting one down for herself and Omen.

She waits for the food to be ready, studying him, "You're a..." she squints, trying to remember the name, "Vaseterm, right? Nevaeh said your kind is almost extinct, but mentioned there are others around. I think she described seeing a 'young blue royal' and a Queen" she rambles now, spilling her thoughts, "Have you always hated your own kind?"

Crimson chuckled " I have to admit, your not half bad Crystals" he smiled and followed her side Anna was sitting on one of the tables in the main room of the inn waiting for any of the members of the group to return, she smiled and giggled " aw, how was your date" the Fairfin taste.

Crimson face trun bright red "W-HAT?!" Pointing his free hand at the Fairfin " you listen here Firefly! It was not a date we just got food and talk a little" he snapped.

Anna giggled at the dragon shapeshifter " ooo so it was a date then~!" She hum turning pink

(I love Anna, so much)

Crystals smile had grown a bit bigger after Crimsons reply. Upon teaching the inn and being met by Anna, Crystal was about to say hi before the fairfin went on about their time together being a date. Her cheeks turned pink and she shook her head slightly. "He's right, it's not.. it wasn't a..date.." She said, stammering lightly.

Omen sat down to and pick at his food " yaeh, I know them, the Blue guy a pian in the but and I know the Queen before she changed her name." He looked down in thought for a moment " yes, I had some bitterness for my kind but I wouldn't say I hated them, it's more I was bread to kill them..I didn't come from a mother and father like other do, I was born behind glass...." He takes a small bit of his food before continuing. " You see my kind only have one mate in a life time and we can live for s very long time, but the thing is if we pick a short time the child will always look like the non Sliverblood half but get special perks of the Vaseterm Blood, and one a blood line is tainted it can never be Pier again, no Vaseterm can come from a half blood, the leaner saw the halfblood would one day over populate and Drive the purebloods to Extinction, so I was made along with my sister, but I was the only one they put into active duty, but Killy didn't stop at just half Bloods his hunger was for all Sliverbloods, and so my life has been nothing but death and loneliness"

Alexandrea ate her food slowly as he spoke, more focused on what he was saying. "Only a single mate in your entire life? Yikes..." she rubs the back of her neck, picking up on him mentioning a sister. "You say a life of loneliness, but mentioned a sister? Are you two forbidden from meeting? Does she live the same life as you do? Death and loneliness?"

Rihanna giggled at the two " you both look as pink as I do though" she taste
Crimson face heated up and he growed at the Fairfin " is it your job to tick me off?"
Anna rock back and forth playfully " i be Rich if it was my job! Your like the he's his person I know who blows a fuse Over the littles things, but it's good to see your actually trying to calm down though"
Crimson point to his face " if I had Eyes I be rolling them right now."

Omen place he elbows on the table " yeah, but she was made different then me she doesn't have him in her " he tap his Guardian Stone in the center of his chest " she can do pretty much everything I can but the people who made me keep her Frozen for a really long time, but the Blue guy found her and she with him and Vaseterm people that are in hiding.... In honesty I don't know what Killy would do to her..."

( ugh it's 5 here guys I really need a few hours before I start work today x'D)

Alexandrea thinks about that, looking to where his guardian stone is, "So, if given the chance, would you take your sister from this Blue and the Queen? They sound like they're good Vaseterm who'd keep her safe, would you risk her being around Killy? That thing doesn't have any form of a heart"

(I need some rest too xD
It's 8am!)

" I don't know" Omen moaned, and face planted his face into the table and started to bang it " I just don't want to be alone anymore....but your right Killy doesn't have a heart" he mumbles with his face down in the table

( I think I'm going get some sleep for a few hours at least x'D I'll check back when I wake up, good night blood and Galaxy!)

Alexandrea put her hand on the back of his head, "Stop banging your head on the table, you'll lose what brain cells you have left" she teases, "But you're not alone right now, now are you? From what I know, you've lived a long time, so have I. I know the pangs of loneliness, but right now, neither of us are alone" she says gently, a warm smile on her face.

(Goodnight Shadow!
Can we really say night, when it's light outside....? At least here it is)

Crystal couldn't think of a reply at this point, she sort of shrunk back down into her more quite self as Crimson and Anna spoke. She then glanced down, remembering they were still holding hands. 'Well that won't help this situation..' she thought.

(Haha, goodnight Shadow!

I, on the other hand, won't be able to get sleep until way later. I can't believe I've stayed up the whole night. XD)

(Holy crap you guys did an all-nighter)

(^My words exactly.

Please don't get sick, guys. I was joking when I said 'who needs sleep' last night. ;w;)

(yaeh, it was one moment 10 the next 5 :s )

( Fade did you want to do more with Catch and Eira?)

I wanna continue!

(Me tooooo!)

(Guess I'll take a break from MHStories to introduce Fiona to cotton candy XD )

(Haha, well, only if you want to, Lilly. I don't mind waiting. xP

...I still wanna hear about those ideas you had last night, though. :>)

(Nahh, if I don't take a break from Stories now, I might not at all today 'XD

Shhh, forget about them, I was tired last night when I thought of them X'P

Give me just a sec, and I can start us off :p )

"... Can I just say that was the strangest thing ever?" Sparky's little voice squeaks as he pokes his ghostly head out of Fiona's hair, "Seriously, I've /never/ heard of a Nightmare acting like that... Weird."

When Sparky suddenly broke the silence of the room, Fiona nearly had a heart attack. "Gah...! Sparky? I thought you were still with Catch!" She exclaimed, trying her best to stay quiet as she did so.
"...Yeah, that whole thing was just... Confusing.
I still feel like I want to be angry, but I'm just...
Not feeling it anymore... Y'know?" She said, seeming to lack more enthusiasm with every word.

Sparky would be the one to introduce her to cotton candy

Sparky pins his ears back when he accidentally startles Fiona, "Woops, sorry about that, but yeah... I've been here the whole time." The ghostly little Fairfin flies out of the Elemental's hair and lands on his usual spot--the top of her head. "Well, I don't see any reason for you to be angry anymore. Hmmm... Hey, know what? I'm gonna go get ya something real quick! BRB!" Sparky says after a brief moment of thinking, and suddenly zips out of the room.

(But of course Blood XD )

Lol

Fiona watched Sparky fly out of the room, wondering what he might be getting... Especially since he was a ghost, which probably made it a lot more difficult to pick up things he'd been able to before.
The Elemental floated up to the window and waited for the little yellow ghost to return.

After a moment, the little ball of yellow light flies up to the window, grinning. It looks like he's trying pretty hard to hide a mass of pink cotton candy behind his back, but... being the smallest of all the Fairfin, and also a somewhat transparent ghost... ehhh, it doesn't work too well...

Fiona stared in confusion as Sparky flew up to the window with a pink fluffball-like object behind his back...
Her eyes widened with horror as probably the worst thought possible entered her mind...
"SWEET MOTHER OF THE STARS, IS THAT WHAT I THINK IT IS?!" She shouted--or, would've shouted if Boo weren't asleep in the room. She managed to keep her voice down... Kind of... At least, for her standards.
The Elemental immediately backed away from Sparky, all the way to the wall of the opposite side of the room.
"W-where did you get that?! WHAT EVEN IS IT?! It better NOT be what I think it is--WHO WOULD EVEN DO SUCH AN AWFUL THING--" She began rambling in a panic, but suddenly paused as she seemed to realize something else, "...Am I just lucky nobody's tried to turn ME into one of those?!"

... Well, that certainly wasn't the reaction Sparky was expecting. "Uh... it's just cotton candy? From the Festival... What did you think it was?" Sparky asks, after staring blankly at Fiona for a bit.

"...Cotton candy..." Fiona repeated, grimacing as she thought about it. //Such a carefree name for something so... Evil... What monster came up with this?!//
"...Wait just a second. Cotton /CANDY/? As in... Something you EAT?...
...I don't feel so good..." The Elemental muttered quietly, slouching against the wall and slowly sliding into a sitting position. "I-it... Looks like..." She started, stumbling over her words, "...It looks like Air Elemental." She blurted.

(Eater: All of a sudden, I really want cotton candy...)

Sparky glances from the cotton candy, then back to Fiona a couple times, then quickly tries to explain, "No! No no no, it's not an Elemental! It was never alive in the first place. It's just a sweet snack they sell for festivals and stuff." He pauses a moment, questioning if he should ask, but slowly holds it out, offerring it to Fiona, "... Would you... care to try it? I thought something sweet might... I dunno... help you relax? Not make you question if people eat Elementals for a good time..."

Fiona still looked hesitant, but she seemed to calm down a lot once Sparky explained what cotton candy actually was. She got up, floated over to the Fairfin, and accepted the pink puff from him. "Well... Thanks for thinking of me, Sparky. Since you went through all the trouble of getting it, I'll give it a try." She gave him a little smile before looking at the cotton candy. //...This feels so wrong.// It was obvious by the Elemental's expression that she still felt sick about it, but she toughed it out and took a bite anyways...

"... You see? It's not bad, is it? It's just candy," Sparky reassures with a faint smile as he sits on the window sill.

After Fiona had taken a bite, her sickened expression quickly vanished, "...Yeah... It's sweet! Like, REALLY sweet." She said, just staring at the cotton candy, "It really is just candy... Even though it's kind of weird. I've never eaten anything like it before, but I guess that's what makes it cool!" She managed a smile.

Sparky laughs a little and beams up at Fiona, glad that he cleared up that misunderstanding. "Awesome! You know, I'd never bring you anything to eat that was a person, I mean, if Eater offered you something, I'd be suspicious, but I'm just a lil' Fairfin! I'm not as evil as a Nightmare... am I?" As he says the last part, the Fairfin grins, then makes a ridiculous face, pretending to be terrifying. And failing.

Fiona laughed at Sparky's attempt to be scary, "Of course I know you wouldn't do that, Sparky, but I was just kind of shocked by it at first...
...This looks pretty bad when you're an Air Elemental and you don't know what cotton candy is." She said, taking another bite of the fluffy pink candy. "And I'm pretty sure I'm gonna be skeptical about everything after being around Eater.
I mean, what if... That door is conspiring against us?!" The Elemental jested, suddenly jumping and pointing at the door to the bathroom.

"Ahh no! PLOT TWIST!!" Sparky squeals, dramatically "fainting" from shock, but laughing all the same. He sits back up afterward, but tilts his head as he then asks, "What next, now that I've introduced you to cotton candy? ... I don't sleep anymore, but it's super late--aren't you feeling at all tired?"

As Sparky spoke, Fiona finished eating the cotton candy. Her glowing eyes started rapidly changing colors to lighter and darker shades of blue for some reason...
"Tired? Who needs to be tired? Sleep will never defeat me!" She quickly said, "WOW, this cotton candy stuff is GREAT! I should get it ALL THE TIME!" The Elemental bounced up and down excitedly.
...Apparently, not only do some Air Elementals react badly to spicy foods, but they also react to sugar.

(I'm not planning on doing a whole lot more than this, unless if you have something in mind, Lilly. I'll probably have Fiona crash in my next post. xP)

(Haha, alright, that's fine with me Floofers XP )

Omen still have his face on the table but trun it to look at the Phoenix shapeshifter and thought about what she just said " that's true! And seen you live a long time I probably won't out live you so soon like everyone else!" He grinned happily. Then remember one thing and his Smile faded " Killy doesn't like me having friends though..." He looked away " he will probably have me kill you like everything else " he murmured

While Sparky is half-tempted to see if Fiona is anything like Catcher now, he figures it's probably better for her safety if he doesn't. "Mmm, are you sure though? You'll need to sleep if you wanna bash people's faces in tomorrow! You're probably more tired than you think you are..."

Alexandrea's smile faded when he talked about Killy, "Are you stuck with him forever? I mean, there has to be a way to separate him from you, without killing you"

"I like bashing people's faces in! And smashing stuff to pieces! Especially if they're bad guys!" Fiona grinned, starting to hop around the room, "Ooh, do you think I can do that soon? Do you think Terra'll see me and be impressed?!
...I haven't seen Terra in a while... Actually, I haven't seen anyone in a while..." The Elemental quickly started to slow down as her mini sugar-high came to an end. "...I hope they're all ooookaaaaayyyyy..." Was the last thing she said before face-planting into the floor with a loud 'thump,' right beside the bed Boo was asleep on.

Sparky laughs so hard, he snorts a bit, and shakes his head. "Ahhh, you're the greatest, Fiona..." the Fairfin mutters, then flies through the door. "I'll go find those two Dreamer kids, and then I'll see about stocking up on sugar-filled candies..."

(Well that was fun XD

*quietly sneaks away to go back on MHStories* )

.

Omen push his lips " we been this way for about 50,000 years now, give or take a few centuries... He was infused with me before I was even born, it was an experiment to put a fully developed familiar in a kid, it work but we don't share a bond like Guardians and anchors are supposed to. If he was mine, my personality would bleed into his more, but he is older and make me do things." He explained then folded his arms and rested his head on them " I really don't know... when others have tried in the past Killy well kill them. Only Royals have Guardian Stones they can be ripped out but it's like ripping out a piece of your soul and the damage it does is pretty bad on the body, mind and magic... Chances are it will kill me but no one would complain, no one would miss me... in fact it be what everyone wants for what I done and will keep doing..."

(Yes it was. Thanks for taking a break to RP, Lilly! xD)

"That's a long time to be bonded to a monster like that" Alexandrea whispers, feeling bad for Judas, she gently rubs his back to comfort him. "So it's not actually you killing others, it's more him?" she questions, "Would he die if Soledormir was to get killed? That strange mark on your chest, I feel I've seen before"

(No problemo, Fluffy X3 )

Omen push his lips with a frown " most the time it's him, but it's hard to say Over the centuries...something it feels like Im the one who has the malice intention but it could just be Killy's Whispers to me" let out a slow breath " the mark on my chest is Soledormir brand, but I was born with it. Killy is connected to Soledormir but he also a part of me, I don't know what would happen if you guys win or not, I can't see my own fate... just others " he whispered.
The Vaseterm cover his head and whined " Killy doing to be very mad later for telling you all this, he already mad at Malice so he probably going to take it out on us both"

Alexandrea felt bad for Judas, for being forced into the life he was, she couldn't help herself, she was always very caring and loving. Even if he was tricking her, she didn't care at that moment, she moves closer and hugs him, "I know we've had a bad start to getting to know each other, but you know? I'd be very sad if you died Judas" she says gently

The Outcast flinched at first, not been used to being touched in such a way, tears gathered in Omen eyes at Alexandrea words " you be one of the very few, and the only one alive who thinks that way..." He whispered. The Vaseterm open one of his wings and put it around The Phoenix shapeshifter as he lend into the comfort of her hug, and he started to cry

Alexandrea let him cry as she hugged him, feeling confused and conflicted, //If he wasn't forced into such a life...I wonder who he'd be? If Killy wasn't forced to be a part of him// she thinks, //This is weird, one moment we're fighting, the next...we're hugging// she found herself humming to him.

It was one of the rare moments in his life Killy did not intervene, and Judas could just cry on someone shoulder, but he knew after 24 hours the demon would wake up again and he be her enemy again, but for now all he wanted was to have a friend and listen to her humming.

After a while Judith whispered
" I'm sorry, for being a monster"

When he whispered to her, Alexandrea got quiet for a few moments, "You don't have to apologize, you were forced into this walk of life, you didn't ask for it. If anyone is to blame, hate, etcetera, it would be the people who forced you into this, the ones who created you" she says gently.

Alexandrea gently cups his cheeks in her palms, lifting his head to look at her, "I have a deal for twenty four hours, even demons won't break deals they form, so what do you want to do? Something you always wanted to do, without Killy getting in your way"

Judas thought about Alex words and the people who made him // how would things be different if Soledormir never intervene?//
The Vaseterm foce was pulled from his thoughts when Alex lifted his head so he was starting her in the eyes, a child like grin spread across his face "maybe do good stuff? I want to try helping instead of hurting "

"Well that's a good start" Alexandrea smiles, releasing his cheeks and getting up, "It's quite late though, there might not be a whole lot of good to do at this hour" she thinks for a moment, tapping her chin. Alex remembers the crummy areas of Howaito, "I know! There might be some bad guys over there" she says and shifts, taking into the sky

Judas tilted his head as Alexandrea talk and came up with something for them to do.

The Vaseterm grinned Playfully when the Phoenix shifted, giving his wings a good pump Judas flew along side her, and started giggle mysteriously, but because of doing something bad but that he was going to do something good and Killy wasn't going to stop him this time.

Alexandrea scanned the streets, listening and looking for trouble. She then noticed a young dreamer bolting down the street, when her and Omen had started flying over the bad areas. She noticed some shifty figures chasing the young dreamer, the dreamer cried out for help and Alex looked to Omen, "Now's your chance" she says

Judas nearly squealed, he folded his wings and free fall down the Vaseterm open his wings at the latest moment he shot Over the young Dreamer head and landed between the Dreamer and the Shady characters. Judas opened his wings up making a wall and summoned a spear, he was sure yet if they were just Shady characters or dark creatures of Disguise yet " soo~ open what you got plans fir' ye hist

(I'm going to re do that post, now that I'm awake x'D)

Malice had Neveah in his arms as he entered his Palace, the remainders of his servants had cleared the bodies he had left and we're now working on fixing the damage to the building. Mimi the brown haired made look at the Nightmare King puzzled he was not taking her painted dungeons but was heading to the stairway, she asked as she approached him " my master would you like me to return her for you"

Malice keep on his course " no....Omen know now that she alive, therefore hiding her will do no good"
Mimi still was confused " but isn't she still a Slave? "

Malice glanced at his maid " she is... now tell me how was it that she escaped"

Mimi did what her Master command and explain how Void brought Alexandrea there and she free herself and the fox " Master Malice Void show himself to me"

Malice stopped abruptly with his servants last comment he himself had never seen Void The Forsaken lost " tell me what he look like" he commanded.

Mimi was nervous " master he look like you"

The Nightmare king Eyes widen "what? That's not possible" Malice mind was racing for answers // it can't be... he dead, I know because I kill him// his head was pounding in his drunken State trying to figure out this puzzle, Malice shook his head " that doesn't matter for now, just have everyone on alert for Omen if he should come " he said then continued on his way.

Mimi politely bow " as you wish my master" she said and when to tell the others.

Going upstairs Malice when down one of the long Halls to were the guest rooms where, opening on of the door the room had been unused for centuries everything was draped and covered Inside. Malice when over the the bed and use one of his chains and pull off the cover, he then gently set Neveah on the bed and look down at her " I will try and be as gently as I can but I am a Nightmare and you know this will be unpleasant, but there are things I must know that only you have seen" he said to the sleeping fox and then placed his hand on her and close his eyes.

Neveah grimace and whimpered as the Nightmare king invaded her dreams....

Judas look down were the Dreamer screamed came from seen the Shady characters chasing her " I never been a good guy before what do I do? Do I just stop them and don't kill them?" He asked as he started to fly lower.

Alexandrea hovered above the scene with him, "Well yeah, think of it like this. Death is the easy way out for bad guys, they need to be punished for their actions. Whether that's rotting in jail or in some way being punished by the guards here in Howaito" she says, "Subdue them and hand them over to the authorities"

(Whoa, you guys are still going? Wow!)

(yep x'D)

Judas pushed his lip and thought " ok! I get it! Let do good guy Stuff!" He said cheerfully, folding his wings the Vaseterm dive down and landed between the Dreamer and the Shady characters, he placed out a hand and chanted making a barrier appeared, they didn't have time to stop with the sudden appearance of the Vaseterm and his spell that they ran into the barrier. Judas snickered at them, then trun and look at the young Dreamer " you better get home, we'll take care of these bad guys" he said with a cheerful smile. Then look back at the guys getting up // what can I use that won't kill them?....uhhhhmmmm I guess I'll wing it!// He thought for a moment then summoned a spear // it has a blunt end, and just in case it has a sharpen to!// He glanced over to see where Alexandrea was at.

( I can't help but think she the Silverblood babysitter all the sudden x'D)

The dreamer nodded to Judas, "Thank you" she says quietly, her voice laced with fear as she turns and gallops off again, down the street and out of sight.

Alexandrea decided to spectate, landing on a building close to the scene and perching on the edge, she folded her wings and noticed the weapon he decided to use, //Smart// she nods to him when he glanced to her.

The shady characters were revealed to be dreamers themselves as they got closer to Omen, in their human forms. Dreamers were usually pretty to look at, but these guys looked like they were plucked from the bottom of the barrel and dropped a few times.... "Aww you chased away our pretty little friend" One says, giving a toothless, ugly grin to Omen. "Well that's fine, we'll ruin pretty boy here and find her again" The other says, they both summon weapons, one with a halberd, the other with a large chakram.

Alexandrea's eyes widen, "I'm here if you need me Judas" she calls to him

Judas had his spear resting behind his neck with his arms Loosely over it on both sides, as the two Shady characters threaten him, the Vaseterm gave a goofy grin " aw, thank you for the compliment! But sorry I can't return it, cuz you both look like trash " he said mockingly. Seen there choice in weapons Judas snickered " oooh~ a chakram! That's my favorite! And a halberd to! I bet I know someone who can use that better than you bozos!"
He looked up at Alexandrea and grind " I think I'll be ok!they don't look that smart, and If anything I can always take away there weapons"
Judas look back at the Shady characters he took his Spear and twirled it in one hand "alright let's have some fun shall we?" He said smoothly it, then charge that the two the Vaseterm chanted and swiped his spear sending a wave electricity at one he quickly turned into the blunt end of the spear and slammed it into the other guy gut

Alexandrea couldn't argue with that, she could almost smell the alcohol and filth coming from them where she was perched. If she could make expressions in this form, her beak would be screwed up in disgust.

The two dreamers both seemed angry by his words, the one that had the wave of electricity sent at him actually managed to block it by twirling his halberd, his weapon seemed to absorb it, the beads along its handle lighting up. He then swung it and sent the attack back at Omen, twice as powerful as his partner in crime was winded.

Judas yelped in Surprise when the drunken Dreamer observe his attack and sent it back at him, he was to close to get out of the way and not enough time to make a barrier without using his dark magic. Judas flared his wings out and teleported behind the man and grabbed him by the back of the head and when to smash it into the ground but stop just before actually making him hit // Aah! That might kill him! I know Dreamers are Hardy but I'm not supposed to kill them // he looks up at Alxe will a confused goofy look then back at the man in this one hand, he decided just to toss him into the wall and hope it wasn't enough to kill him, he temporarily forgot about the one he winded

Alexandrea giggled when Judas gave her a goofy look, she could tell he was unaccustomed to fighting without killing. She'd been keeping her eye on the second guy and flew off the building she was perched on when he started sneaking up to strike Omen from behind.

Alex landed on the second man, crushing him under her large foot, digging her talons into the ground around him and pinning him. "It's hard huh?" she noticed the dreamer Omen had flung, coughing up blood, the wall behind him badly damaged. "You'll have to hold back a bit, aim to disarm them and then aim to drive the wind from them....a good blow to the gut will do or you have another form or couple forms that are big right? Sit on them, kinda like what I'm doing, he's stuck and can't go anywhere" she says, perched on the dreamer she's pinned.

Judas rubbed the back of his head at the damage he did " I guess it was still to much, this is a lot harder then I thought" he said then tilted head in thought" sit on them? It be kinda over kill to use my War Horse form to sit on him....and that would probably squish him anyways..." He murmured. Taking his hand he bumps himself in the forehead " well duh Judas! You have a horse form!" He grinned and shifted, the large Clydesdale size Vaseterm prance over and sat his hindquarters on the Dreamer and gave Alex a goofy grin for a horse show his fangs

Alexandrea listened as he rambled, then as he pranced over and sat on the dreamer, she giggled. "Perfect, I'll bind them and you carry them on your back, we can always wash you off later" she teases, knowing how he felt about water.

Shifting, Alexandrea used her magic to bind the dreamer she'd pinned, then got Judas to stand up and threw him on the Vaseterm's back, she did the same with the other and then clapped her hands together, "Ready to go my trusty steed?" she grins playfully

Judas's ears lade flat with unamused expression on his face about getting washed off " I hate baths expecially with water " he whined.

The Vaseterm Prince anxiously waiting "ok! I'm ready!... where are we going?" He asked curiously. His nostrils flared as the stench of the Dreamers went up his nose " is it to a bath, because that torture and they could use one " he teased with some seriousness to his tone

Alexandrea waved for him to follow her, she started to walk down the street, "To the guards of Howaito, they'll know what to do with these guys and that's why I suggested a bath for you, because their stink will stick to you and I'm sure you don't wanna walk around smelling like them" she says, "You'll scare the children off~" she giggles, leading him along

Judas's Threw his head back letting out a loud annoyed wine, sound like a child himself. " I hate baths" he complain more, as he followed the Phoenix shapeshifter her tease did make him think // how does someone play a kid? How do people even take care of them?"// He was lost in thought as he walked

Alexandrea rolled her eyes when he whined, patting his head, "Oh stop it, you'll survive a small wash and it'll do you some good Judas" she says. Soon she spots the guards, a bit surprised to find they actually exist and walks up to them with Judas and explains about the two they'd captured. The guards take the two off the Vaseterm's back and walk off with the two ugly looking criminals. Alex then grins at Judas, "Ready for that bath now? I'm sure they have a place to wash horses" she teases

Judas's frown at that he was quite stubborn and came to that subject and only took bath if he absolutely needed to, but the nasty scent still lingered from the two Dreamers. " I really don't want to, but if I have to I guess so"

"Come on, ya got wings in this form too, let's go find a place" Alexandrea says, putting her hands on him and hopping up onto his back, "And I won't grab your horns this time" she giggles, "Now giddy up horsey"

Judas rolled his eyes at the Phoenix shapeshifter. the Vaseterm pumped his wings and took to the sky, he was looking for a horse stable to get cleaned up

Alexandrea held on as Judas flew, gripping his mane, "Oooh your hair is so nice, I wish mine felt this good" she was immediately distracted, playing with his hair

Judas tilted his head a little so he could look at the Phoenix shapeshifter " Vaseterm have natural soft hair.... there was a time were my kind use Magic to enhance our body's to be better physically and attractive and that just passed down though the Generations, even though I was not born like other like my kind I still inherited the attractiveness of the Vaseterm even though the people who made me Focus more on the physical strength and magic capability " he explained almost forgetting what there destination was. Getting back on course Judas spotted what he's looking for and spiral down and landed at a horse stable, he trotted looking at the horses and giggle and then he winning making the Horse in the stable stir and winning back, Judas laughed at that getting distracted in a game.

Alexandrea nodded as she listened to him, "That makes sense now" she runs her fingers through his silky hair, "I imagine you don't have too many bad apples like those dreamers we caught, a species built on beauty and power, wow" she holds on as he goes down to the stables and starts whining with the horses, she can't help but roll her eyes.

Hopping off his back, Alexandrea goes and finds a bucket, filling it with soapy water and a sponge, she carries it back to Judas playing his game with the other horses. "Judas, stop bugging them and come here"

Rihanna giggled " you can even tell jokes!" She grinned playfully at the the two noticing them holding hands " oooh~ you guys are holding hands already? That's so cute!" She practically squeal.

Crimson face as red with embarrassment and irritation the dragon shapeshifter was trying to keep his cool " listen here Firefly, in blind so the only way I can get around right now is if someone...helps me, ok!" The last part was difficult for the red Prince to say.

Judas pulled his attention from his little game when Alex spoke up, he look at the bucket she was carrying and did a childish wine. The Vaseterm dragged his hooves scraping the ground as he complained sounding like a Colt about getting a bath. Judas made it over to the Phoenix shapeshifter his ears we're pinned back and unamused expression on his face " I don't like getting my wings wet" he whined

"Oh you'll live drama queen, you won't die getting a wash" Alexandrea moves behind him, pulling on his tail, "Sit, I'll get your back better this way" when she gets him to sit, she soaks the sponge and then slaps it down on his back, it's cold and very wet. Alex couldn't help but make a raspberry as she'd slapped it down and started to scrub his back.

'This is so... Awkward.. I wonder if it's always like this with these kind of things.' Crystal thought. She looked up and back and forth between Anna and Crimson, "Yeah, there's really no other way to help." She joined in, trying to keep her voice soft and not sound as embarrassed as she really was. "I know I really wouldn't want to be walking into walls and things. That probably.. would hurt. A lot."

Judas sat there pouting still not liking the idea of getting wet. He Yelp, and a shiver ran down his spine when the Phoenix shapeshifter Splash time with cold soapy water "Alex! It's cold and WET! " He wine sound like someone was killing him. The Vaseterm notice Alexandrea giving him a raspberry he narrowed his eyes with a child like mysterious look and took one of his hooves and kicked the bucket of water splashing the Phoenix shapeshifter with it," now your wet to!" Judas busted up laughing

Alexandrea giggled, "It's not exactly warm water, it's for horses after all and they don't complain anywhere near like you do" she yelps as he splashes her with the bucket, soaking her shirt and pants. Alex raises her arm and throws the sponge, hitting him in the face with it, it made a squish sound as it hit his face.

Crimson took his free hand and pointed it at Crystals "see what she said! We're not boyfriend and girlfriend j just don't want to be running into walls is all" he puffed.

Anna grinned flaring pink when the dragon shapeshifter made a particular statement " I never said you two were boyfriend and girlfriend, I just asked it you to were on a date, but seen you brought it up~~" she hum

Crimson puffed his cheek and shook his free hand with irritation "quit twisting my words around! Im not implying anything! " He snapped

Judas squeak when the sponge hit him, as it slid off he bit it and spit the sponge back at Alex, afterwards the Vaseterm had his tongue sticking out spinning " yuck! I got soap in my mouth!"

Alexandrea caught the sponge and continued to scrub his back, "Good! You deserve that" she smirks, scrubbing his back and having to lean against him to get all of it, being much shorter than the large Vaseterm.

Once she got all she could, she picked up the empty bucket and filled it with just water this time, standing up on a bench, "Come here, I'll rinse you off now" she holds up the bucket.

Judas stuck his tongue out at her remark, the Vaseterm complained under his breath as the Phoenix shapeshifter finish scrubbing him.

Judas shook himself as he got to all 4 legs, he walked over with his cheeks puffed out and ears pinned back " it's cold isn't it?" He asked even though he knew the answer because she already explained, but he just wanted to complain away

"Stop complaining" Alexandrea rolls her eyes, once he's in position, she dumps the water on his back, the soap rinsing off, it seemed much colder this time. "All clean" she says, noticing his wings had gotten wet in the process and she couldn't help but giggle.

Judas complained anyways getting water dumped all over him. the Vaseterm flopped his wet Wings " awhhooo there heavy now! " He frowned his brow and pounded, Judas flick hid wet tail at Alexandrea for giggling at him, and he smirked back

Alexandrea squeaked as he flicked her with his tail, "Yeah yeah, but they'll dry and not by standing around, come on, let's go find a place to spend the night....preferably not with the barn animals" she hops off the bench and starts to leave

Judas Follow along with Alex doing his best in keeping his wet wings up so not to get them dirty, walking besides the Phoenix shapeshifter Judas was in thought " this has been a fun night...and not the kind that Killy likes but fun, fun kind of fun..."

"I'm glad" Alexandrea smiles up at him, "You finally got a break from the monster and got to live life normally" she says, tilting her head slightly, "If Killy wasn't apart of you, is this something you'd like to do? Be the good guy instead of the villain?" she questions

Judas Shrugged his shoulders " I don't know, I never really thought about it before, Killy always been a part of me and the only reason why I was made was to kill " he thinks about it more as they walked his tail flips slowly" I honestly don't know... I didn't want to be a monster but I also don't feel things like Others do, I don't know if it's because of Killy or how I was made but I don't feel...I mean I do but don't, I feel pain when I'm hurt, I get mad, I cried, I laugh, I Smile I feel lonely but I don't feel when I kill but he does and he likes it... and we killed a lot.." shacking his head " there was a time long ago I just wanted to be like the story I heard about other kids, live a normal life but I fond out nothing about me is normal..."

Alexandrea got quiet as he spoke, "To be fair, none of us are normal, we're all unique in our own ways" she starts, "How many people can shift into a giant four winged phoenix or a beautiful winged horse like you? Not many, we have our own personalities and just have to be careful sometimes to not let others influence who we want to be and who we are" she smiles, "You'll find it one of these days....who you want to be Judas"

Judas listen as he walked taking in the that Alex had to say" I guess your right, even I haven't seen to many Phoenix like you or any for that matter' he looked up at the sky as he pondered '.. others influence who we want to be and who we are....You'll find it one of these days....who you want to be Judas' the Vaseterm walk in silence for a while " maybe one day" he grinned

Alexandrea saw him grinning and grinned herself, she put her hands behind her head as she walked, "It sucks, to know tomorrow we'll be enemies again...but I guess that's how things will be, for now" she smiles, "I wish it could be like this more often, two friends, having fun and enjoying each other's company"

Crystal hadn't thought much about what Crimson had mentioned in his words until Anna had poked at it further, then her face turned more pink and she ran her free hand through her hair anxiously. "A-Anna, really... T-There's nothing going on." She stuttered, "I'm just b-being nice and helping a friend.. That's all.."

Judas sign " yeah me too... it's fun having a friend but..." The cursed Vaseterm stop and looked down his voice fill with sadness " Alex... please don't go easy on me, when the bargain is done, Killy wouldn't show the same courtesy, he will try and kill you and the others..."
Judas look up and foce a smile in his Horse form " don't worry about hurting me though!, I'm tougher then I look! lot of people try to kill me before, even my best friend Mal try to kill me all the time and hasn't yet! "

Alexandrea's heart broke as Judas spoke, "I know, I promise I'll hold nothing back Judas" she says, her tone sad as she walks back. Gently placing her hands on either side of his head, she presses her forehead to his, "I won't hold back and I won't die, but even though I'll do this, you'll always be my friend Judas. I'll end Soledormir with the others and find a way to save you, that is my word to you"

Judas was fighting back tears at the Alexandrea promise.
The Vaseterm gently move his head and pulled the Phoenix shapeshifter into a Horse version of a hug " thank you Alex..." He whisper

Alexandrea gives him a tight hug, then lets him go, "Let's get some rest now, it's been a very long day" she leads him along to an Inn, different from where the candidates are and far from them. "I don't think they allow horses inside, no matter how pretty and flashy you might be" she teases

Judas Follow, he smirked " no I guess not" The Vaseterm shifted to his humanoid form, he shook his head sprinkling with little bit of water left off. He looked up at Alex with a grin " were going to stay here?"
Judas when to go inside but stop he wanted to do something first before the night was over and Killy would be back. The Vaseterm move one of his wings in front of him, he took his fingers plumes carefully, he was looking for the right one he stop one a gemstone feather // this one// and bit back a whimper as he plucked the glimmering plume, Judas folded his wing behind him and held out the feather to Alexandrea " I want you to have this, I don't have any to tie or wrap a trinket with it, but I hope you still like it..." He said with his cheeks pink and a shy boyish look " I don't have very many like that anymore...I did something Killy didn't like and he let me get caught, he knew they had a way to take Royal feathers off so they don't come back..."

Alexandrea had went to follow him inside, but stopped when he did, raising a brow as he felt along his wings, she didn't understand what he was doing. When he plucked the feather, she grimaced faintly, knowing the discomfort from doing that.

Alex took the feather from him, "It's beautiful, thank you Judas" she smiles, moving her fingers over it, "I'll think of something to do with this...mmm I currently have Skorri on my neck" she furrows her brows as she thinks, then moving her hair around and digging around in her pockets, she finds some string and starts playing with it, the feather and her hair. "How's this?" she lets go of her hair strands, she'd braided and tied the feather into her hair, tilting her head for him to see

Judas gently took the back of his hand and brushed the peace of Alex hair she had woven with a feather " it's pretty" he grinned, and up down his hand and beamed "now we are best friends!" He declared happily . The Vaseterm trun to go inside a happy beat to his steps " I have a friend! I have a friend! A bestest friend! "

Alexandrea giggles as he declares their friendship, she couldn't help but feel her heart sink. //I wish it could always be like this, he'd be such a fun comrade to have around and get to know better, to have your back// her smile had faded as she got a room for them. Alex walked down the hall quietly, opening the door and heading inside the room.

Judas Follow along Alexandrea declaring their friendship cheerfully.

The Vaseterm Follow her Inside and squealed seen the beds she ran over to one and jumped on it and bounced, he then climbed up all the way and started to jump on the bed making it squeak and Rock

Alexandrea lay on the bed he wasn't jumping on, after shutting the door, she had no idea how he had so much energy. And she felt sleep tugging at her as she lay there, listening to him. "It was a fun night" she says tiredly, "Thank you Judas" she whispers as she dozes off

Judas plopped down on the bed and grind " good night Alexandrea it was fun"
He leaned back then glance over seen the Phoenix shapeshifter asleep he looked up at the ceiling in thought // what I have done is already in motion, the moonblood damn will break and be flooded with visions, but maybe just maybe....// Judas took his fingers acrossed his arms bands making them glow and a display with rings appeared, he moved his fingers across the display, he still wasn't satisfied but it was all he could do.

Judas put his hands down making the display fade then he close his eyes // I like having a friend, it was really fun. Today// his last Though were of the events that happened and he smiled falling asleep

(Daww, Omen is so nice when he's not trying to hurt people.)
