Blue gawked at the frozen girl, his jaw hanging open in shock, //There's two! But why did they leave her? For so long too// he closes his mouth, setting Qui down and walking further inside the room.

He looked around for the same thing he'd seen the other Male Vasterm wake Judas with, he finds it and then glances to the small girl. //Better we find her, then someone else...And I wouldn't feel right just leaving her here...all alone...// he breaks the ice over the hold and repeats the same process that awoke Judas.
-
The machinery and Magic came to life as Blue activated the device with his arm band. Rings appeared around the cylinder making the glass Steam as it started to thaw. The room warmed up a little but not much.
The girl flinched as purple markings appeared on her skin and glow , pain was on her face as the liquid was in started to drain out. The glass cylinder dissolved, and she was laying wet on the bottom. She began to scream as Blue foce her to use her lungs like the male Vaseterm had done for Judas.

Qui covered her mouth and watched in silence as Blue birth the young girl, she was amazed that he knew how to work the work the machinery, but Vaseterm we're quick learners to begin with especially with their own kind. Qui wasn't sure what to do next but she had to help, " Jason, get out the blankets in your backpack before she freezes to death in her" she orders him noticing the girl shivering as she was still crying out.

Jason was still in shock and awe but he did what his sister asked
Qui was using one of the blankets to try the girl " shhhh, it's ok we're here to help" she spoke gently to try and calm the girl // can she even understand me? Is she really a newborn in a child's body?// She looked up at Blue not sure what to do
-
Blue flinched as the young girl used her lungs for the first time, one she was born he moved over to her, watching as Qui dried the little girl off.

He gently nudged Qui, "Mind if I take her?" he asks, not waiting for an answer, he wraps the small girl up and picks her up, studying her. "She's definitely Judas's sister....but what's her name?" he looks puzzled, looking down at the small girl in his arms, then around the room.

Qui let Blue take the girl, she stood up and look down at the young child in Blue arms, she looked to the
Cylinder she was in and the place where Judas his name was on his, but her was scratched and could barely read it " I think it say Oracle project...but it's hard to tell for sure, but they clearly just abandon her... but why?" She looked back at the girl who was now staring up at Blue with her amethyst eyes just like Judas.

Jason shrugs his shoulders " you could always just Name her yourself, you were the one to wake her up after all"
-
Blue saw the scratched out plate, squinting and unable to make it out, "Hmm" he hears what Jason says and looks down at the small girl, "I don't know why they left her, I'm not getting any visions for her...yet" he frowns, trying to think of a name to call her.

Shaking his head, "I can't think of a name that suits her, yet, but more importantly, should we get out of here? We only have a small time frame to return home" Blue points out
-
Qui nodded her head " I think that's a good idea to, we can come up with one back home" she rubbed her arm to keep warm and glanced around the room // this place...the things they did here...we could spend years trying to uncover the secrets... But then again do I really want to know what other horrible things they done?...//
Jason got his pack around again " I'm ready for a summer retreat" he teased
And started for the stairway

The girl keep staring up at Blue, she made a small babbling noise watching him talk
-
Blue followed behind the twins, fascinated with the small girl in his arms, he already loved her and yet didn't have a name to call her. "I think she's mimicking me, everytime I speak" he sounds a bit excited, smiling down at the small girl in his arms.

The little girl copy Blue and Smile, she continue to make noises as Blue talk to her.
Qui Smile at the two Royals " i think your right about that she even mimicking your smile, " she Chuckles.

After a good while of climbing stairs back up, the now 4 of them made their way to the surface floor, Qui and Jason work together to pry open the eroded door, it led to a different room then the one with the elevator, but it looked just as badly decayed.

Qui bit her lip Remembering something she looked up at Blue " Blue thought pillars, we still need to figure out how to get by them" she looks at the girl " she a Royal two...but if Omen found a way out we can to"
-
Blue felt beyond happy as she mimicked him, //Was Judas this adorable? Probably at one point, I won't let her become like him// he watches as the twins pry open the door.

"Oh yeah, that's a problem" Blue had forgotten about him being trapped and now he was trapped with another royal, much too young to help him, considering she was only born a few minutes ago. "Do you think I could destroy them, by awakening again? Or would it force me back like it did on the way in?"
-
Qui put hand to her chin in thought, trying to solve their predicament " I have a feeling it will make you shift back, I think Omen would have broke them all if it didn't" Qui was thinking about what they could do " you could try Kyro? He broke my barrier pretty good" she chuckled softly and rubbed her arm.

The girl reached up to touch Blue face, she had a gloving cover on her hand much like Judas did, she squealed happily putting her hand on his face.

"I could" Blue flinches as the girl touches his face, then realizing her hands had gloves on them, he smiles down at her, then makes his way outside. "Okay, here goes nothing then" he looks to the giant pillars and summons Kyro.

The giant wolf appears a few dozen feet in front of him and howls loudly, "Alright Kyro, let's break down these pillars!" Blue orders, his familiar covers himself in fire like he had done in training with Qui, but twice as hot and bright. Blue covers the little girl's eyes with his hand, so she's not blinded as Kyro tears off towards a pulsing pillar.

Kyro leaps up and crashes straight into the pillar in an explosion of blue and white flames, the blast so strong, Blue feels it from where he's standing and braces himself against it
-
Qui pulled Jason behind some rocks for cover, she remembered what happened last time but know Blue and Kyro we're super charged from Light of Deluna's moons.
// Get them Kyro!// She covered her head and braced for the impact
The pillar made a loud moaning sound as it started to fall from Kyro attack. It made the Earth shake when it hit the ground and sent a Shockwave
-
Kyro went and destroyed the remaining pillars, only the ones still pulsing. Blue used his large wings to shield himself and the small girl from the shock waves. Once Kyro finished, the familiar trotted back to Blue, tongue lolling out as Kyro laid down beside him.

Blue didn't see or feel the pulsing anymore, "I think that's it" he murmurs and peeks out, "Qui! Jason!" he shouts, "You can come out now!"
-
The girl Eyes sparkles seen the the giant wolf, she giggled and reached her hands out to him and babbled some more.

Qui and Jason came out one the Blue said the cost was clear. " Now it's just getting back to the gate in one piece, it was quite the way away to get here and" she looks up at the sky then to the horizon we're dark clouds blocked out the moonlight " you wouldn't have the moonlight all the way" she Place her hand on Blue arm and looks at the little girl " we have a new member now to" she smiled

Kyro tipped his head at the girl, but didn't move to sniff her, he just swivelled his ears.

Blue stood up straighter now, nodding at Qui, "True, but I could make it back in that form, it would just affect me to turn back again, but I think we could manage or...." he looks to his familiar, "Is there anyway we can ride Kyro? I know he's covered in flames, but I'm sure there's a spell to make him so we can ride him, right?" he looks to Qui with a questioning look
-
Qui look to Blue familiar when he asked " there is a spell to make a barrier to protect against fire, but Kyro, fleams are much like yours if you can control the temperature of your fire, you should be able to get him to do the same"
Jason Light It Up at the thought of riding a giant wolf " I hope it works! That would be so awesome!" He couldn't contain his excitement
-
Blue nodded and looked to his familiar, Kyro's gaze meeting his. After a couple moments, he carefully walked forward, Kyro made a slight whining sound and rolled more to one side so his back could have easier access.

Placing his hand in the fire, Blue was shocked to find it not burning him, "It worked!" he gasps, then climbs onto Kyro's back with the little Vaseterm in his arms. He waves excitedly for Qui and Jason, "Come on, let's get out of here!" Kyro looks unamused, staring straight ahead and continuing to lay down

"Yaeh!!" Jason shouted with excitement and pumped his fists, he started past his sister and climbed up on the Wolves back "this is sooo cool!"he practically squeals.

Qui hufft at Jason when he almost knocked her over in his excitement, she then went over and climbed up on Kyro, and sat behind Blue, she took her fingers through the wolf Blue flames and Smile // he did it, him and Kyro work really well together // placing a hand on Blue shoulder " late go home" she smiled at him
-
Blue nodded to Qui and Kyro stood up, letting out a howl and charging off, at a much faster speed than Blue had gone in his true form. Kyro leapt easily over drop offs and then ran alongside the canyon as he headed back to where they'd originally arrived from, "This is so cool!" Blue lets his mouth hang open, holding onto Kyro's fur with one hand and admiring how fast his familiar could go.
-
The little girl was squealing and giggling as Kyro ran at an impressive speed, Qui had put her arms around Blue torso, her Long hair being whipped by the wind " this is incredible!" She grin.

Jason had to keep pulling his hair out of his face, but he was still having a blast and keep whooping and hollering as they made their way back

Kyro tore across the ground, he started leaping up jagged rocks to the temple they'd arrived in. "Yeah" Blue says, holding the girl tight to his chest and using his other hand to grip Kyro's fur. "This is a much quicker way of getting around" he breaths out.

Kyro arrives at the top, tongue lolling out as he pants and trots to the temple, Blue looks around, Kyro following his gaze and what he was thinking. "Hold on tight" Blue warns as Kyro starts to bunch his muscles and wiggle his shoulders, "Here we go!" Blue shouts and his familiar leaps up, crashing through the roof of the temple where the large window was and their teleport spot.

"We're here!" Blue snickers, "Good thing Deluna's fallen, I'm sure we can repair that hole when Deluna is restored one day and all the other many, many holes" he laughs and climbs off Kyro as his familiar lies down. Blue checks on the little girl in his arms, to see her smiling and giggling, reaching out a hand for Kyro.

"So how do we activate the thing to go home? Just stand in the center and Victoria will pull us back?" Blue looks to Qui with a questioning look.
-
Qui and Jason both got off of Kyro, Qui fitted with her messy wind whipped hair and try to get it back into place as she walked over to the Stone gate, "Victoria has most likely been waiting at the other gate this whole time, I can give her a signal to call us home, we just need to be ready " she explains and then stand on the Stone Circle and Jason follows, Qui look to the little girl Blue was holding with worry " Blue, when we go through the gate to the other World, you need to keep an eye on her, I don't know how the change and these two worlds Magic will affect her, she only know of Deluna and its strong Magic presence, it might take her a while to get use to another world"She explained anxiously, then use her Magic to signal they were getting ready to come home, Jason grinned "I wouldn't worry too much, Vaseterm our one of the hardiest species I know of! "
-
Blue nodded as he listened to Qui, looking down at the small girl with worry, he moved to the stone gate and stood with them. Leaving Kyro around, just incase anything might happen. "I think I'm gonna name her Ai" Blue says, grinning, "It means love"

A warm smile spread across Qui lips "it's a beautiful name, Blue, and I think is suits her " she brush the back of her hand against Ai cheek. Making the little girl smile.

The Stonegate begin to Glow and it's Magic swirl around them, in a flash the for was sent back to, the Human World.

Victoria was standing outside the ege of Stone Circle as the small group appeared.

Jason threw his arms up in the air "Oh, beautiful sunlight how I missed you!" He grinned

Tears begin to form in Ai Eyes as she made a discomfort expression, and started to cry.

Qui blinked a few times as her Vision cleared after teleporting, she drop to her knees and painted heavily finally letting go of the barriers she was using on her and JasonA warm smile spread across Qui lips "it's a beautiful name, Blue, and I think is suits her " she brush the back of her hand against Ai cheek. Making the little girl smile.

The Stonegate begin to Glow and it's Magic swirl around them, in a flash the for was sent back to, the Human World.

Victoria was standing outside the ege of Stone Circle as the small group appeared.

Jason threw his arms up in the air "Oh, beautiful sunlight how I missed you!" He grinned

Tears begin to form in Ai Eyes as she made a discomfort expression, and started to cry.

Qui blinked a few times as her Vision cleared after teleporting, she drop to her knees and painted heavily finally letting go of the barriers she was using on her and Jason
-
Blue watched as the gate started to glow, he squeezed his eyes shut as they were teleported back, Kyro disappeared when they were. He blinked a few times, eyes squinted against the sunlight, it was so bright after being in the dark of Deluna.

He flinched when Ai started to cry, quickly rocking her in his arms, "Don't cry Ai" he says in a soothing tone, "You'll be okay" he moves her so her head rests on his shoulder, holding her to his chest and looking to Victoria, "We came home with a plus one" he grins a little.

Victorious Jade and astonishment at the little girl in Blue arms " a... child from Deluna? How is that possible?" She walked up to the young Royal and examined Ai
Ai quivered her lip, she squeeze her tear field eyes shut not use to the sun light.
Jason kneel down beside his sister and placed a hand on her back " you going to make it?" He taste.
Qui was still catching her breath, she narrowed her eyes at her brother and push him over " whatever" she huffed.
-
"I had a couple visions there, I saw how Judas or as you know him, Omen, was created. She was created the same, but for some reason left behind" Blue glances down to Qui, //I told her to let me help// he sighs and gently hands Ai to Victoria, "Maybe you can tell us something we don't know? Or Osiris can? I saw him in my visions, he knows about Judas" he crouches down with Qui and puts a hand on her back, "Are you alright?" he murmurs
-
" Judas...." Victoria murmurs " I've had suspicions, about the Vaseterm devil, and is unnatural long life...but to think he was made..." Her heart melted holding the little girl, it had been some time since she held so young, not since rescuing Ethan than. Looking back at Blue " Osiris was there? *She paused* Osiris has been serving the Royal Family for dinner Asians... He does not speak much of the old days when the our people live much different then before the lawyer changed...for the better"

Qui gave Blue a weary smile " I'm fine, I just need to catch my breath, is all, "

Jason helps himself up and whistles while he points to the Palace" I'm going go get something to eat, all this Adventure hero stuff makes one have an appetite"

Ai still had her eyes closed, the sunlight still bothering her, she hid her face in Victoria's shoulder.
Blue stayed by Qui's side, "You should have let me help" he nudges her playfully, then looks up to Jason, "I'm starving too, switching between forms, especially my awakened one....I'm starving" he helps Qui up as he stands, looking to Ai, "What will you do with her Victoria?"
-
Qui bite her lip " a lot was going on at the time" she whispered.and then got up when Blue help her.

Victoria was rocking Ai in her arms " she will need to be checked, I'll take her to the Infirmary so Suzano can
examine her, but we should be careful who we tell that she is the same as Omen, for now at least...he is the one who was the reason why our world fell" she tilts her head to glance at Ai " I will not close my door to a child, not even one who related to the devil "

Jason didn't wait he started heading towards the palace being called by his hunger.
-
Blue nodded, "That's true, but you'll be okay, right?" he kisses the top of her head, then looks to Victoria and Ai, "Alright, I'll come check on her when we get something to eat" he grins playfully down at Qui and picks her up bridal style, darting into the palace, towards the kitchen
-
Victoria knotted " you all did good, now go eat and rest" looking to the Child In Her Arms " I'm sure Ai will be waiting anxiously for you" she gives Blue a warm smile.

Qui face flushed when Blue kiss the top of her head, she was going to say something , but the words were Swept Away as Blue pick her up, and she squeaked in Surprise, face turning more red "B-Blue! I'm fine really" Blue was already on his way

Blue snickered, setting Qui down outside the kitchen, "Oh really? Says the one who collapsed moments ago" he says teasingly, booping her nose with his index finger, "Now let's get something to eat and hope Jason hasn't eaten the entire kitchen" he walks passed her inside
-
Qui face reading with embarrassment, and mumbled something under her breath. The horse shapeshifter rolled her eyes " one can hope" she said and followed Blue Inside the kitchen.

Jason was already inside stuffing his face at the table with an assortment of food.

Ethan look up from his usual spot with his cereal bowl and twitch his ears at the to new arrivals
Qui walk over to the refrigerator and open the door and addressed Blue " do you want something in particular to eat? I don't mind cooking or would you rather have something quick, to eat like them " she gestured Over to what Jason and Ethan we're eating
-
Blue waved a greeting to Ethan, a friendly smile on his face as he followed Qui to the fridge, "Hmm" he glances back to the two, "I think something you cooked would be nice" he says softly into her ear as he leans down, "Heaven's know what Jason's stuffing his face with" he chuckles
-
Ethan managed a small smile and wave back at Blue, then continue to eat his cereal.

Qui chuckled at Blues remark " he eat about anything" she teased and started to pull out ingredients she needed and put them on the counter and pulled out a pot to cook in, and set it on the oven and turn it on, to get the water boiling while she prepared the rest of the food before putting it in the pot to cook

Blue tipped his head to one side, watching as she got the ingredients out, then decided to sniff around for something to snack on while she cooked, but he'd never seen any of the things before in his life. He grabbed out a chocolate bar and bit into the wrapper, "Ick, this thing is gross" he growls, frowning at it.
-
Ethan twist his ears at Blue growling and look up from his bow and notice the Royal struggling with his candy bar " it has a wrapper around it, you take that off first then you can eat it" he said calmly

Qui was busy making Spaghetti boiling the noodles and preparing the sauce and meatballs
Jason got up and pulled out more junk food to eat and sat down again
-
Blue turned to look at Ethan, then back to the chocolate bar he was holding, narrowing his eyes slightly and tugging at the wrapper which made a ripping sound. He was a bit shocked to see the chocolate was brown and took a bite of it as he watched Jason grab even more food, "Oh it's sweet!" he looks down at his bar and then proceeds to eat the rest of it
-
Ethan chuckled at Blue and his chocolate, he covered the front of his face almost having milk come out of his nose.

Qui finish making the Spaghetti "food ready!" she dished up a few plates and took one one set it down in front of her brother " you need to eat real food our your going to get sick" she scolds him, then places a smaller one in front of the wolf boy " and you need to eat something other than cereal all the time" Qui, got the last two plate sheet dished up and set them down at the table one for her and the other for Blue, she smiled at him " that one is for you"
-

Victoria took the child to the Infirmary, Ai had her eyes open now out of the bright sunlight, she was sitting on one of the beds with Victoria as Suzano examine her, with gloves on she removed the child's gloves and looked at her arms and hands " these markings they are the same as his....you know what that means" the nurse looked at the queen nervously.
Victoria nodded her head as she stroke the girls hair " I do, she has the same power as Omen... Touch that inflicts pain, and can even steal life... Blue did a good thing in bringing her here, if someone like Omen found her who knows what evil he would do"
" You're going to feel a little pinch"
Suzano got a syringe and took some blood from Ai arm, after placing a small Band-Aid on the spot she put the glove back on Ai and Pat the little girl hand and gave her a friendly smile " your such a good girl Ai, that wasn't so bad " she said soothingly

Blue was still licking the chocolate out of his teeth as Qui set out dishes for everyone. He sniffed and follow her to the table, "It smells amazing, thank you Qui!"

Sitting down, Blue pulled his plate closer to himself, but wasn't sure how he was supposed to eat it. Shrugging faintly, he lowers his head to the plate and starts using his fingers to messily shovel food into his mouth. The spaghetti sauce stained his fingers, mouth and even a bit of his war paint as he ate it.
-
Ethan ears swiveled as he poked at his food at first, and frowned before he quietly started eating.

Jason was almost as messy as Blue but he was using a Fork to eat with.

Qui forced a smile // he almost as messy as Jason, but the difference is Jason knows better // sliding a fork over to the young Royal " it's a little easier to eat it with a fork and less messy, here try it like this" she picked up her fork and started to eat
-
Blue paused his assault on his spaghetti when Qui handed him a fork, he frowned a bit and watched as she demonstrated how to use it. He mimicked her, but he'd already done a good number to his spaghetti and soon ate all that was left. "It was really good, thanks Qui" he grins, even one of his lower horns that curled by his cheek had gotten spaghetti sauce on it.....somehow

Qui put a hand up to your mouth and chuckled lightly " your welcome Blue" picking up a napkin she hangs it to the messy Royal " I think you have some leftovers" she teased and gestured to his horn " you should probably get cleaned up after everything that happened anyway, " she gave him a warm smile
-
Blue tried to lick his horn when Qui gestured to it. "Yeah you're right" he mutters and wipes the spaghetti off of his face and horn.

After he'd cleaned most of it off, he walked over to the sink and turned on the tap, sticking his head under and washing off his face completely. After he looked to Qui, "Is there somewhere I can wash my full body?" he asks, "preferably without soaking my wings"
-
Qui rolled her eyes and shaked her head as Blue washed his face // that's one way of do it//
Qui tilted her head
"There bathroom, we're you can take bath, and don't worry it's not deep enough to drown in,
and then there's the showers, you can try not to get your wings wet, but you might still get a little on them "she explained and then wave the hand to follow as she headed out the door
-
"Well I'd hope a place that houses Vaseterm's wouldn't have a place where they could potentially drown"Blue responds smartly, following behind Qui and to the bathrooms, he grins playfully once they're out of earshot of everyone else, leaning closer to Qui, "Will you join me?" he asks in a whisper

Qui heart pounded in her chest and her Face reddened "B-Blue! " She blurted out "b-but your a g-uy and I-'m a girl! A-nd.." she stuttered, Qui could feel her face heating up with embarrassed but she couldn't help Remembering the time she seen the Royal with his top off , She shakes her head frantically " there boy side and girls! "
-
Blue snickers at her reaction, "Aww come on Qui, how many times has it been now that you've seen me without my shirt on? Hell, you took it off yourself and touched me" he teases, "We are mates after all"
-
Qui face red and even more "t-hat was different! I had to get to your Guardian Stone" she blurted out, Qui fidgeted with her hair she couldn't argue against that, they were mate's now. Heart pounding in her ears Qui sheepishly put out a hand
-
Blue took her hand gently and lead her into the bathroom, closing and making sure the door was locked behind them.

[Skip to later, Blue and Qui head to check on Ai...]

Blue started down the hall, putting his jacket on as he walks, his feathers still drip some water. "Where would Victoria take Ai?"

Qui had to think about that "I doubt she would take her outside, this soon, and she didn't want to many to know she Omen Sister" she thinks out loud following besides Blue, she starts braiding her wet hair " we could see if they are in living room" She suggested
-
Blue looked down at her as they walked, "Uh sure, where is this living room?" he questions, watching her braid her hair as they walk.

"it's this way"Qui took Blue hand and lead him through the palace to the living room.

It was a large room, there was several places to sit including couches in front of a large TV, there was an air hockey table, And a few other fun things. There was a 3 other Sliverbloods and 2 Other shapeshifters just hanging out relaxing. Victoria was off to the side, sitting on the floor with Ai playing with some toys, Ashley as trying to take measurements of the little girl
-
Blue walked in with Qui, leaving his boots at the entrance and still not putting them on. He studied everyone in the living room, noticing Ai with Victoria and Ashley trying to measure her.

He walked over to Ai and crouched down by her, "Hello Ai" he says gently with his usual smile, she looks up and squeals happily. Blue looked to Victoria, "How is she? Is everything okay?"
-
Victoria nodded her head to Blue and Qui as they walked over, it put a smile on the Queen's face when Ai squealed happily " she seems to be bonding with you Blue " looking down at the little girl with Blue question "she adopting to this world Magic precious well. Her Eyes will need little more time got get use to the bright sunlight, a long with strengthening her legs and arms." Victoria signed and looked at Ai with pity " she has the same making on her skin as Omen does... She's infused with chaos Magic, just the Touch of her bare hands will inflict harm" she explained to the male Vaseterm.

Ashley finish getting her measurements " all done! I'll get started on something for her" she pat Ai on the head then got up to go, noticing Qui and Blue, and how they both had traces of been wet and she gave them a devilish grin and wiggled her ebrows at them " I'm sure I'll see you soon Qui" she days before leaving
-
"Chaos magic, huh? Guess I know now to avoid Omen's touch" Blue can't help but continue smiling at Ai, he scoops the small girl up in his arms when Ashley finished. Ai giggles and Blue catches Ashley's comment, shrugging and nuzzling the top of her head.

He stands up with Ai and frowns, "Omen doesn't know she exists, what do you think will happen if he does find out?" he asks Victoria

Qui cheeks reddened and bite her lip with Ashley's hint to her // why does she have to be so nosy//
Victoria remain sitted she looked to Ai with concern " it's hard to say what he would do with her, if he knew, but he has done terrible things to our kind, expecially to halfbloods and Royals,...Omen is know as a Thief, not only does he still life, he takes part from his victims ...he may use her as parts..." She held her arms " he might even try to twist her to be like him "

Qui walk up beside Blue and placed a hand on his arm as he held Ai, Qui was staring at the happy giggling girl then looked up at Blue with fear in her eyes " we can't let him have her " she whispered
-
Blue grit his teeth when Victoria said all that, looking down at the innocent Ai in his arms, then to Qui, "I will never let Omen lay a finger on her, over my dead body" he growls protectively and sets Ai back down with her toys.

He looks to Qui, "I have to figure something out, I'll be back though, I promise" he kisses her forehead then walks to the door, putting his boots on and heading off down the hall
-
Frowning her brow with concern Qui watched Blue go but she didn't follow, she couldn't help but feel was going to do something // please be careful// she thought worried but held onto his promise and trun to Ai and Smile "Hello Ai" she said warmly kneeling down to the girl.

Victoria knew the look in Blue eyes and knew it would do no good to try and stop him
-
Blue headed to the lobby of the palace, when he reached it, he stopped. Standing in the center of the lobby, alone, he closed his eyes. //Omen knows how to find people through short visions, is there any reason I can't do the same?// he focuses on the thought of him, //Come on, at least tell me a little bit// after a minute passed of him standing around like a fool, Blue sighed deeply. "He definitely wants me dead though, maybe I head out? He'll find me again" he thinks aloud to himself

Ethan was wandering through the palace, coming to the lobby he tilted his head noticing blue was trying to focus on something // is he trying to pinpoint vision?// He Bite his lip hearing Blue, stepping forward " your trying to find Omen aren't you?" // Blue stood up to him, he could be the one to up an end to the Damon that kill my mother// " if you are I can try and help you" he offered, clenching his fists, a deep hate for the Vaseterm's devil was in his eyes
-
Blue jolted a bit as a familiar voice spoke up, he turned and faced Ethan, "Yes I am" he admits and paused for a few moments, "You can help me find him? I'd appreciate it, I tried myself, as you could probably tell, but no such luck" he sighs and grins, noticing the rage burning in Ethan's eyes.
-
Ethan nodded his head " I'm a midnight Walker, I can travel with you in your visions or even help focus them on something or someone, by grabbing your horns" he explained then gestured for Blue to kneel down so he could reach them, Wings bursted from Ethan Back as he reveal his true self " it might feel a little odd at first" he said before chanting, one Blue was really Ethan grade Blue by his horns, the halfblood Eyes turned silver and his tails unbraided " now focus on who you want to find, focus on Omen"
-
Blue nodded and hesitated only a moment before he knelt down and let Ethan clutch his horns, he felt his body seize a bit and did as he was instructed, focusing solely on Omen

Images we can The Flash in the twos mind, Ethan gritted his teeth as he was pinpointing Omen location, a image froze in both there mind of a sky View of an medieval city " we're getting close, he must be in that City....I'm going try and get use a closer look and see where..." Ethan painted with the strain his wings started to glow with his tails, the imaged zoomed in to street level, the residents of that world all appear to be human, the Visions focused and on one individual in the crowd, a man of the same Heights as Omen but he did look like a Vaseterm he wasn't wearing the traditional flashy clothes, he didn't have Wings of a male Vaseterm or his war paint on his skin, the most unusual part was his hair was black " is that really Omen?" He asked in almost disbelief
-
Blue grit his teeth as images flashed in his mind, "That has to be him, I'm only focusing on him, he can disguise himself too. But where is he?" he growls, "How do I get to this world Ethan?"
-
Ethan was trembling maintaining his hold on Blue " as seen a vision of the present, it's possible to teleport to that area, the big gemstones on the joint of our wings and the one in between our shoulder blades, is how we are able to do this, we just need a good point for a portal" he said between breaths, Ethan back panel the vision looking for a Clear Spot so he could help Blue teleport, he focuses on an Alleyway not far from were they seen Omen " I-I think...this spot should work,....I can help you get there...but your going to have to teleport back on your own " it was getting harder for the midnight Walker to keep up what he was doing
-
"Do it Ethan, teleport me now!" Blue orders, "I can figure out a way back..." he draws in a breath, //if I make it back//

At Blue order Ethan started to chant, making rings form around the royal, Blue wings stretched out with out his will and glow " Blue, good hunting" was the last thing Blue heard before teleporting, to that location in that other world.

One Blue was teleported
Ethan collapsed, and wheezed. he was still very young to be doing what he just did, but he wanted Omen to pay
-
Blue memorized the chant Ethan used, he opened his eyes as he was teleported his heart pounding. He quickly darts from the alleyway after he disguised himself, looking for clothes to hide his obvious silvery white hair. He finds a scarf and steals it, wrapping his head and then pursuing Omen. //I have to get him by surprise, if I just attack him, he'll know immediately...I need the element of surprise//
-
Omen was walking down the street his hands in his pockets, // I hate world like this, short magic with short lives, and I have to look like this, so boring// he sighs// well at least when I find the Sliverblood here I can have some fun at least ///
-
Blue soon spotted the black haired, disguised Omen. //I can do this, he's just the oldest living Vaseterm who specializes in killing his own kind....// he nearly psyches himself out, //Stop that Blue, you have to do this, to protect Ai, Qui and everyone else// he steeles himself, //Now or never//

"Hey look it's an ugly old Vaseterm called Judas!" He shouts in a deeper voice, //Really, now I'm really acting like a colt// "Bet he can't catch me in his old age" Blue continues to yell and turn tails and runs, hoping Omen will follow him to the small trap he'd set
-
Omen stop in his tracks when he heard someone mock him and expecially use his old name, whipping around quickly the Vaseterm devil spotted a man running through the crowd, he smirked " this just got interesting" he thinks loud to himself and the pursues after him

Blue continues to run and yell, "Catch me if you can old man!" He glances over his shoulder, "Man, how disappointing, I've seen colts run faster than you, guess the rumors aren't true! You're just a frail old man! I'm disappointed....Judas!" he continues to shout, mocking and taunting Omen
-
" Hay! name-calling is not very nice! You should be ashamed of yourself! " Omen shouted then picked up his pace, being Vaseterm they were a lot faster than your average Human. // I really don't like my hair// he sighs
" So, you seen to know a lot about me, you kinda have me at a disadvantage you see" Omen snickered, and then began to chant as he pursued Blue
-
Blue grins, "Oh I have you at a disadvantage huh? I'm doubting that" his 'deep' voice falters at parts of his shouting, //Come on, just a little bit more// he full out sprints passed people, beginning to chant as well

Omen smirked at that " your probably right! " Tipping his head // I think I know that voice!// he narrow his eyes with a devilish grin, stretching out one arm his band form on it then rings a appeared around his arm and he shot out a sphere of purple light at Blue, not caring who was in the way
-
Blue yelps as he fires off the purple light, people don't have time to react and are killed or injured by it. Blue gets low to the ground, coming to an abrupt stop and doing the splits, which made him wince.

Ripping off his scarf, he lunges back and grabs Omen by his lower arms as the Vaseterm devil is more than close enough. "Miss me?" Blue asks with a devilish grin, still in his disguise. A spell circle appears under both of them, //Here we go!// it sparks then in an instance an explosion of blue and white flames is sent up from under them, torching Omen, but not affecting Blue that much
-
Omen amethyst eyes widen seen the Colt again he smirked but before he could say something, Blue magic circle activated. The Vaseterm devil roared in pain as Flames burned at him, Omen arm bands glowed and rings form around him, a dark pulse came from Omen sending a Shockwave knocking Blue back and disbanding his spell. Omen was hunched over painting, smoke rise off him and he had Burns on his skin and clothing, " that was a good one kid! I didn't see it coming" Omen grinned and stood up right " long time no see!! " He took his fingers through his black hair, a part of his glove was burned off, and his markings could be seen, even though he was still in his disguise

Blue grunted as he was knocked back, he stands up straighter and grins back at Omen, "Huh and here I thought you saw everything, good to know I can get the jump on you" he says smartly, "And you're calling me a kid? I'm not the one with black hair" he points at him, still grinning
-
Omen put a hand on his hip and glanced up at his black bangs then pounded his lip
" aw, don't be like that, it's just a little side effect to this form " Omen smirked and summoned his Chakrams " but I don't mind playing, seen you came out of your way to do so" and with that Omen rushed at the young Vaseterm with his twin blades
-
Blue's eyes widened when Omen summoned his chakrams, he summoned twin blades this time, instead of his usual halberd. He rushed Omen as well and met his chakrams with his blades, grunting and digging his feet into the ground.

Soon people, mainly knights, surrounded the two Vaseterm, citizens were hiding away, whispering about Omen and Blue being witches. Blue frowned as he listened and tried to pry Omen off as the guards aimed their spears at the two. "Get off of me!"Blue nearly shrieks at Omen, "They're going to kill us!"
-
Omen held his ground against the young Vaseterm, he glanced at the Knights and snickering " it looks like we have an audience doesn't it?" pushing back Blue, A dark grin spread across Omen lips, " what the matter? There only short life" the sclera of the Vaseterm devil trun black"
and it's easy to make it even shorter " a sadistic grin was on his face //I could use Magic but it more fun this way!//
Omen trun and through one of his Chakrams, his blade cut straight through one of the Knights, with the death of their comrade, the other roared and charged at the two Vaseterm

Blue gasped as he was knocked back, "You-" he watched in horror as Omen slaughtered a knight, "How could you!?" he roars and breaks his disguise, shifting to his true form and ramming into Omen. He charges through the knights with Omen pierced on one of his horns
-
Omen gasps when Blue impaled him, he spit up Silverblood. Omen curled his lip and grabbed Blue horn to support himself and started to kicked the young Vaseterm hard in the face
-
Blue winced from every hard blow, his vision faltering in one of his eyes. He made it through the guards and flung Omen off, through a shop window.

Blinking and shaking his head, he noticed the guards still coming and snorted, figuring it wouldn't take Omen long to recover and that he'd definitely still come after him, especially now that he'd injured him. Blue darted off, galloping out of the town and into the forest, half his vision still splotchy
-
women's shopping screeched when Omen crash through the window and tumbled on the door.
he placed a hand on his side and moaned as he got to his feet " he got spunk, I give him that" he Chuckles as he looks at the Blood on his hand.

Omen black wings burst from his back, braking his enchantment to hide his Vaseterm form. Some of The people screeched in shock with Omen transformation, calling him a demon or angel. Omen smirked at this and waved at them Playfully before leaving like nothing happened, exiting the store he was greeted by guards, he notice some running by going down the Street leading out the city // the Colt the Musta went that way// turning his attention back to the guards in front of him, Omen snickered and shifted to his true form and bulldoze his way through them impaling 1 on his horns in crushing Others with his heavy hooves, he charged down the road that led to the forest
-
Blue tore off deeper into the forest, the shouts of the guards long faded from his ears. He snorts and slows down a little, //Omen will definitely know I'm in the forest...but where is the question// he snickers and shifts to his regular form, bruises forming where Omen had repeatedly kicked him.

Using his wings, he shot through the forest, placing small traps on the floor, like he had done in the town, but this time he placed dozens. Once he placed as many as he could handle, he stood in a clearing, chanting and activating them. The traps lit up for a second, then faded, waiting to be stepped on.

Omen trailed into the forest following the hoof tracks of Blue, he slow to trot when he lost the young Vaseterm Trail, Omen snickered and play his little game " Marco!" He called out as he searched for Blue. Has he continued to wander around and play his game of cat and mouse, Omen step on one of the traps Blue place, and set it off, the Vaseterm devil reared up as let out a painfully cry as Flames Brun him again, stomping his hooves the same dark energy as before post and he broke Blue trap, " so your going to play that game?" Omen narrowed his eyes and shifted to his humanoid form, he kneel down to where the markings we're and placed a hand on them, his eyes glow sliver as he searched for the one who created the Trap
-
Blue looked up as he heard Omen and felt one of his traps go off. He snickered, //He's not stupid, he'll find me in a vision like he did before// he waits a bit longer, a few short moments, until he thinks Omen's vision would be done.
Spreading his wings, he shot off into the forest again, until he came to a large cave. Summoning Kyro, he focused and got his familiar's flames to turn to a blackish blue and had him back up and lay in the cave. //Wait here Kyro, when Omen passes here, attack him without mercy// he shoots off again, weaving around trees as he flies
-
Omen seen we're Blue was at that moment, once he was done with the vision, he headed to that spot only to find Blue already gone, Omen scanned his surroundings for any sign of Blue, he called out "Marco" again and started to search the forest again

Blue couldn't hear Omen anymore, but stopped flying and landed by an old tree, he drew in a deep breath and yelled at the top of his lungs, "POLO!"
-
Omen tilted his head when he heard Blue call back, he snickered // he a smart kid, he only play the game if he had a trick up his sleeve// Omen close his eyes and placed a hand on his chest where his Guardian Stones where at, he took a deep breath then open them again, and they glow with a strange light. Spreading his wings Omen took to the sky in the Direction he heard Blue voice. " Marco!" He called again and chuckled
-
Blue heard Omen call back, he started to chant and yelled 'Polo' again, but this time it came out from the cave Kyro is hiding in, waiting to lunge out at Omen
-
Omen tilted his wings to change his course in the direction of Blue call, he had a feeling it was a trap but he was also curious what it was That the young Vaseterm was up to, spotting a cave Omen landed // this looks promising// he peered inside " Hello?!" He grind when his voice echoed, Omen cupped his hands around his mouth " ARE YOU YOU HERE?!" he shouted so it would echoed

Kyro's eyes shot open at the shouting, the large canine shot out of the cave, jaws parted wide as he clamped them down on Omen, his fiery mane and tail lit back up to their normal colors.

Blue felt Kyro move and snag Omen, //Did he really fall for that? Kyro kill him// he doubted Omen would die that easily, but nevertheless Kyro bit down even harder, grinding his fangs on Judas
-
Omen Yelp in surprise as Kyro come charging after him, the Vaseterm devil did have time to react before the fiery wolf familiar Jaws clamp down on him. Omen screamed in pain as the wolf fangs pierced his body, he grabbed the Wolf by his jaw to slow him down before crushing him. Omen started to wheeze and spit up Silverblood. Little did Blue know that sustaining enough damage to Omen body Killy would be summoned...
Omen Eyes trun dark, his markings on his body glow a reddish purple, throwing back his head Omen, screened a distorted Roar as darkness poured out of him and took shape of the true Vaseterm devil, unlike the other familiars that resemble beautiful beasts, this one was not, Killy was an abomination that stood as tall as Kyro. The creature with a half human face grab the wolf by his head, and bite into the Kyro neck causing severe pain, so he would cry out. Using his claw like hands, Killy pry the wolf Jaws open, forcing him to drop Omen, now that his anchor was free, The Familiar of Chaos tore into Kyro with out Mercy
-
Blue had been watching what Kyro was, his heart raced as Killy appeared, //What in God's name is that thing? I've never seen something so terrifying// he opened his eyes so he didn't have to see what was mauling his familiar anymore, tears streaked down his cheeks as he listened to Kyro's pained cries.

Kyro fought back, snapping his jaws and tearing his claws at Killy, the great wolf was on the losing end, laying on his side as he fought back. Blue grit his teeth, //I won't let that thing keep hurting my familiar//

Blue shot up into the sky, flying over Killy and summoning his halberd, his body trembled with fear as he looked at the nightmarish creature. //Hold on Kyro// he does the chant that lights up his halberd, then pitching it at the creature, but his shaking caused him to hit Killy's shoulder instead of his neck
-
Killy was tearing chunks out of Kyro, when Blue halberd striked the monstrosity in the shoulder, causing Killy to roar with a terrifying sound.
Killy reached up with his other hand and pulled out Blue weapon, he then crushed it in his fist and look to the young Royal flying around, and glares at him with his strange red eyes that was not like other familiars that glow a bright blue, Killy started to speak in a dark language.

Omen sat up listless, he trun and look at Blue with glazed eyes " I will rip the flesh from your bones, I will trun your bones into dust, I will claim your life and add it to my own " Omen translated in a distorted voice.

Killy drawled any breath and with a roar he breathed out a beam of Darkness at Blue

Blue felt fear pulse through him to his core as Killy spoke through Omen. He beat his wings hard, trying to escape the beam, but it hit him full on and Blue let out a blood curdling scream.

Kyro lay on the forest floor, seemingly barely alive, the familiar disappeared as Blue was hit.

Blue crashed into the trees, falling through the branches and hitting the forest floor, he was bleeding profusely from more wounds than he could count, //I... have to get away...that thing will kill me// he wheezes, eyes wide with fear as he crawls forward, adrenaline keeping him going, just barely.

He stopped crawling and focused on the world he'd arrived in with Qui and Jason, //Kyro can't help me anymore, I have to get home, that thing is coming for me// it took a second longer but he mimicked Ethan chant and his wings just barely spread out as he teleported back.

Blue reappeared on the lobby floor, wings splayed out on either side of him, blood pooling under him as he let out a fear filled, desperate wail, "QUI!"
-
Killy was coming to end Blue, he reach the spot where the young Vaseterm was the familiar Calles lunged just when Blue teleported, making his Jaws snap on nothing but air. He stood up and stared at the sky and growled before returning to his anchor.

-

Qui had left Ai with Victoria, she was on her way to her room when Blue fearful cry come from directions to the lobby, her heart jumped in her throat, //something wrong// she quickly took off towards the lobby, with each step her fear and worry grew. Qui gasp "Blue" seen the Royal lying on the floor and his own Blood, she ran over and kneeled down beside him and took his hand and started to use her healing Magic on him.
"what in the world happened, Blue?" She asked with a trembling voice
-
Blue felt fear still pulsing through him, a bit of relief when Qui showed up and took his hand, he didn't say anything, just shook his head. Ignoring his pain, he got into a kneeling position and pulled Qui into a hug, resting his head on her shoulder as he trembled, holding her tight.

Killy knew Omen was in poor condition, before returning to the Vaseterm, he would go hunting for something that Omen could feed on...

-

Qui knew something really bad happened but she stayed quiet for now, Qui took her other hand and cradle Blue, she ran her fingers through his hair to calm him " your back Blue" she whispered gently she, was still using her magic on Blue to heal
-
Blue nodded slowly, breathing in Qui's scent and listening to her voice. "That thing was horrifying, Kyro got badly hurt" he whispers, his adrenaline dying down and making him feel exhausted. His eyes rolled back and he passed out in her arms
-
I a short time Killy had found what he was looking for, it was easy being so close to a town... The Familiar dropped a woman in front of his anchor,
Omen looking at his familiar and Killy Eyes pierced him, he then looked down at the woman and Omen did to and started to take off his gloves. The woman was full of fear but Killy broke here legs.

-

Qui called for help when Blue passed out, Jason came and of course I asked what happened, but Qui could only guess, together they brought Blue to the Infirmary, Suzano rust over and help them put Blue on one of the bed, Qui held his hand "I'm here for you, Blue your going to be ok." She whispered to him.
-
Sokio was enjoying getting attention from the nurses, even though most of them didn't even like him. He was telling tall tails on how his wing got broken, but when Qui came in with Blue the attention in the room turn to the young Royal. Rage boiled up inside Sokio he clenched his fist // that Bast.rd! Ruined everything! And I'm the one who gets blamed!, // Glaring from across the framery, malice intention play through his mind as he started at Qui //I'll make him pay for clipping My Wings, I'll make him pay good//

Blue remained out like a light as he was treated by the nurses,but that didn't mean his dreams were at all nice. They twisted into dark nightmares as he slept, twitching and whimpering in his sleep.

By the time the next day rolled around, Blue was gripping onto the sheets as he was tormented, nightmares of Killy trying to kill him, no matter where he went in the nightmare, that godawful creature followed him. He couldn't scream for help no matter how much he tried to, it was when he reached a dead end in the nightmare that panic had pierced his core and the only option he could think of he made happen....

Blue's eyes shot wide open as he let out a blood curdling scream that echoed through the infirmary and the hallways, as his tail shot out of him...
-
Exhausted from the previous day's activities, Qui was sleeping soundly in her bed, little Ai was curled up next besides her.

The Silence of the Infirmary was broken with Blue blood curdling scream, waking up the few patience and turning the attention of the nurses towards Blue.

Suzano Eyes widen "he going to awaken!" She shouted seen the Royal tail.

Sokio didn't need another warning he ran for the door as fast as he could.

Qui eyes Shot open when she thought she heard Blue scream
-
Blue's eyes were glazed over, his mind not processing he was awake and awakening. He continued to scream as his secondary wings burst from his back and he rapidly shifted to his full form of the war horse.

The ceiling of the infirmary and the wall with the windows facing outside completely shattered as Blue stumbled out, his eyes wide as his helmet came on. Fear still clouding his mind
-
Suzano was helping getting the patients evacuated, as quickly as possible
Ethan had woken up from Blue screaming, his eyes widen with horror as the Royal he looked up to awaken, shaking and crippled by fear the halfblood cover his head ." Not again, please not again"
memories of his last encounter with a war horse filled his mind, and the day his mother was killed .

Qui definitely knew something was wrong, she heard the sound of demolition happening, because they weren't planning any remodeling. Quickly getting out of bed she put on her shoes, and headed out the door giving one last look to the sleeping Ai // if what I think is right, you will be safer here// she closed the door and headed towards the infirmary as fast as she could, and Passing Sokio running in the opposite direction

Blue held his head in his hands, moving around and muttering to himself, "Keep it away, keep it away from me..." he starts to step backwards, nearly crushing Ethan under his hoof, but he does step on a part of his bed, causing Ethan to get flung into Blue's leg. The war horse looks down at the halfbreed, the blue eyes on his helmet shining bright as he reaches down to pick him up
-
Ethan was to petrified by fears and move, even when the War Horse hoof look like it was going to crushed him, he Yelp hitting Blue lag.
Ethan let out a blood curdling scream was Blue pick him up, the young halfblood was trembling with fear.

Qui got out of the way of some of these patients and nurses evacuating the Infirmary, she went inside and covered her mouth seen Blue in his awaken Form "Blue!" She called out to him.
-
Blue couldn't hear Qui, her voice sounded muffled to him as he clumsily moved away from the infirmary, still holding his head in one hand, Ethan in the other. "Wh-where is it?" his distorted voice rings out, his tail lashes around and cracks against the side of the building, cracking it. Blue's fire starts to burn brighter and he stares down at Ethan, "It's here! Where!" he demands, his voice laced with fear
-
Qui squeaked and flinched as she covered her head, when Blue tail whack the building, // he acting like the first time I seen him in this for. like he doesn't hear me...// Bitting her lip Qui hop though the Rebel of the building and chased after the War Horse "Blue! Wake up!" She called.

Ethan is shaking profusely in Blue hands, expecially being shouted at " I don't know! Please don't hurt me!!" He shrieked, tears were running down the halfblood Face

Blue shakes his head with a frustrated growl, he stops in his tracks however, when he hears Qui calling his name.

Turning his head, he looks to the small girl running towards him, then the crying Ethan in his hand. It clicks and he shakes his head, blinking a few times to focus, //When did I awaken?//

Blue kneels down, guilt piercing his heart as he listened to Ethan and saw the damage. "Did I hurt anybody?" he looks down at the halfblood in his hand, opening it up so Ethan's on his palm, "I'm so sorry Ethan"
-
Ethan look even smaller curled up into a ball on Blue Palm, still trembling and crying, his tail wrapped around him tight. Ethan didn't reply back to Blue he just cry with his arms covered his head, not wanting to look at the War Horse, that made him relive his Nightmares.

Qui sighed with relief // he snapped out of it// she walked up to Blue and placed a hand on his lag and looked up at the towering War Horse then over to the half demolished Infirmary with worry and uncertainty" I-m not sure Blue...Suzano was evacuating the Infirmary when I got here"
-
"Ethan please don't cry, I'm not going to hurt you" Blue takes his helmet off, looking down at Qui, "I hope I didn't hurt anybody, I don't really remember what happened, I was trapped in a nightmare.." he stands back up

Moving to the rubble, he avoided stepping on Qui as he moved and gently moved one piece at a time, searching to see if he'd hurt anybody

Qui followed Blue over to the Rubble of the building, there are still quite a bit of dust drifting in the air. She watch The War Horse anxiously as he began to move the rebel // please say everyone got out before it collapsed//

As Blue remove the rubble, one of the patients didn't make it out in time, a Vaseterm woman was partially crushed in a pool of silver blood.

Ethan look just when Blue uncovered her, the half blood was already traumatized of war horses thanks to Omen, and seeing the blood it made him remember that day, and his stomach twisted and he vomited
-
Blue froze when he uncovered the woman, horror and fear pulsing through him, he felt paralyzed by it. He didn't even notice when Ethan threw up, "Q-Qui..please tell me she's alive" he whispers, tears pricking his eyes
-
Qui covered her mouth seen the woman // oh, no// Qui did hear her heart pounding in her ears, each step she took to the woman she grew in fear " please be alive" Qui whisper as she kneel down to check for a pulse.

Ethan was in a daze he just started before he spoke up but not really thinking what it was " all War Horse are the same...they only exist to destroy..."
Qui took a breath of relief " she alive, but just barely" Qui started to use her Magic on the woman but she was badly wounded
-
Blue held his breath as Qui walked forward and checked the woman, letting it out when she confirmed the woman was alive.

His heart broke at Ethan's words, "That's not true, I don't want to destroy, I want to protect" he paused, tears streak his face, "I didn't mean it" he puts Ethan down and painfully shifted back to his regular form.
Spewing up silver blood and his vision vanishing, he stumbled blindly over the rubble and inside, "Suzano!" he yells, then spews up more blood as he feels his way into the hall, continuing to call her name and move blind

Qui continue to use her magic on the woman. //Blue...// she was worried for Blue when he shifted back and the toll it took on his body, but she couldn't go help him in fear off losing the woman.

Suzano along with several other nurses were running around tending to the patients down the hall.

Sokio noticed the Royal stumbling down the hall calling for Suzano, storming over he grabs Blue by the caller
" got some nerve to ask for help after what you just did?! You almost got us all kill! You Royal Bast.rd!"
" he roared
-
Blue grimaced as Sokio grabbed him, "I didn't...." he trails off, "I don't want help" he coughs up more blood, "Someone didn't make it out, she needs help" he whispers, "Qui is healing her, but she's not a nurse, that...that's why I'm calling for Suzano" he shoves Sokio off and tries to shuffle passed him
-
Sokio curled his lip as Blue stumble down the hall, he didn't believe him but didn't pursue him.

One of the nurses came up to Suzano " not everyone is accounted for..." She told Suzano.// Oh no don't tell me// Before she can reply back Suzano noticed Blue // he converted back // the head nurse run over to him and placed a hand on the Royal " Blue try relax you're in shock after wakening" she spoke gently to him to the spite after what happened.

The others in the hallway, gave Blue hateful or fearful glances

Blue didn't respond to Suzano's concern, "Qui is healing a woman, she needs you" he coughs up more blood and continues to his room, off by memory. He couldn't see the other patients expressions, but didn't have to to know what expressions they had.

He stumbled to his door and inside, leaving a trail of silver blood up to his room. He went inside and felt around for a chair, grabbing one and jamming the door so no one could come in without breaking down the door, he then collapsed on the floor
-
After getting Blues report
Suzano Jester to a few of her staff and she and they rushed to help the women in need. Suzano kneel down and took over for Qui. "Wait where's Blue?" Qui ask worried.

Suzano glanced up at her " he was heading down the hall last I seen"
-
Blue remained out like a light on his bedroom floor, too drained from awakening to move or even speak. Laying in his own blood.
-
Qui help Suzano as much as she could, when she got a chance she when to find Blue, he wasn't to find were he went because of the trail of blood he left behind, Qui knocked on his door and try to open it but found it was locked " Blue" she continue try to get inside for sometime but her result was the same, putting her forehead on the door "
Blue... what happened was out of your control, I know you didn't mean for any of that to happen...I'm here for you when your ready to talk" // that if he not pass out already and bleeding to death // she almost Sykes herself out being over-dramatic. Qui remembered someone else you needed her to, she gave Blue door one last look before heading to her room where she left Ai

Blue felt awful, in more ways than one, his skin burned with fever and illness from the shifting and not taking proper care of himself and he didn't care.

He'd gotten up of the floor and had taken his tops off, sitting on his bed, hunched over, one hand draped down by his knee, the other tapped his guardian stone, "You idiot" he whispers, tears falling down his face
-
Qui returned the next day she knocked on the young Royal door again "Blue...I know your in there, you can't keep yourself locked up, you know I'm here for you " she hoped he would listen if he was awake
-
Blue went to answer her and was thrown into a fit of coughing, "L-leave me alone Qui" he rasps and then falls silent again, his room was pitch black and smelled of blood.
-
Qui hear Blue through the door but it wasn't so much what he said, that concerned her but how he sounded // he sick// " no, I'm not going anywhere, Blue, you need help and I'm going to help you " knowing the stubborn Royal most likely won't open the door, Qui backed up away from his door, and shifted to her true form, // like it or not I'm coming to help me// Qui Paws the floor once then charged and rammed Blue door with everything she had

Blue didn't listen to Qui anymore but nearly jumped out of his skin when she broke down his door, he flinched at the light and then went back to hanging his head, not saying a word to her for the moment.
-
The sent of blood hang heavy in the dark room, it flooded Qui senses and made her feel nauseous, it took her a moment for her eyes to adjust to the darkness and she could see the young Royal hunched over and her heart sink, walking over to him she nudged Blue gently " hey... I know your beating yourself up over what happened," she shifted to her Human form and placed her hand gently on his cheeks so she could look him in the eyes
" Blue,. I know You didn't mean for any of it to happen, and it was something out of your control " she spoke gently to him
-
Blue didn't move as she nudged him, but looked into her eyes, "But it is my fault, I awakened, I shattered the infirmary and hurt people" his eyes are glossy and blood shot. "I got so scared from seeing Omen's familiar, I had nightmares and lost myself to my fear, I'm so weak, Qui..."
-
It clicked now for Qui one Blue confess."Blue" she whispered then Place a hand his and held it. "Sometimes things are going to happen, that are out of your hands, dwelling on the past isn't going to change what happened, but you can learn from it and be more prepared for the future, buildings can be fix and no one was killed, Blue, that something to be thankful for" talking her free hand Qui ran it through Blue's silvery white hair
" fear is not always weakness, Blue, it's tells us when something is dangerous or need to be respected, it can help make us stronger when we face are fears and find courage, it wasn't that long ago you save lady Victoria from something similar, and does that make her weak? We all have are moments, but it's how we deal with it that makes a difference"

Blue felt himself relaxing as Qui spoke and played with his hair, he sighs, "I guess you're right, but I still feel horrible" he stands up shakily.

"Better do something about this, just don't freak out" Blue's voice is still weak as he wanders over to the light and flicks it on. His upper body is stained with silver, his eyes have terrible bags and are glossy, his wings are disheveled and his hair a complete mess.
-
Qui covered her mouth and
bite Back a gasp of Horror seen Blue full condition, now that the light we're on,. " Oh, Blue..." She whispered still in shock of the neglected state of the young Royal. She walk over to Blue and take his hand " I - I can help you get cleaned up, and I can get you something to eat "
-
Blue nodded slowly, "That sounds nice, I probably look like someone killed me" he murmurs, giving Qui a small smile. "I feel like someone did" he starts out his shattered door, half looking for somewhere to clean himself up, the other half too sick to focus much. "Where are we going?" Blue tips his head at Qui
-
Qui gave Blue a sympathetic smile " you do look pretty awful " she taste. Glancing over her shoulder at his blood on the floor and his window closed " it's because you didn't get any moonlight last night after Awakening, your starving yourself from lack of energy that you need to live, Blue" she explain worried. Turning back to Blue Qui put an arm under his to help support him " i know your not going to like the idea, but I'm taking you to the bathhouse, I think a good soak will help you feel better" she gently started to lead them in the directions
-
"Does that mean I'll get my wings wet?" Blue frowns down at her, following her along to the bathhouse. "They get so heavy" he complains, "It's like wearing wet stones on your back" he grumbles

Qui frowned at Blue's complaining "unfortunately yes, you're going to get your wings wet, but they need to be cleaned to" she explained sweetly. She lend him to the men side and peek Inside to see if anyone was in side, she signed // it's a good thing there not that many males around here// Qui pulled Blue Inside and looked the door not want anyone to come in well she explained how the bath work. " Here let me explain, things aren't quite like normal bath" walking over to one of the pool she kneel down and tap some symbols on the edge of the pool, making the water bubble and glow " you can kind of call them Magic Springs if you want, the water in these pools help with soothe sore muscles, and calm nerves" she explain that walked over to the cabinet and went through them and pulled out some jars, then walked back over to the pool and poured some of the substance in the jars into the water " this will help you feel better to, and get your feathers on there way to looking healthy again " she turned back to the young Royal and Smile Softly

{Skip, Qui helped Blue clean up and he payed her back by throwing her in the water....}

Blue dried his hair as he walked, he slowed as he started to reach the kitchen, remembering what he'd done, his heart sunk, //It wasn't my fault// he sighs.

Blue'd stopped in the hall, but frowned when he heard something coming towards him, he looked around and back, to see a small black Vaseterm in her true form, running funny and clumsily. "Ai?" he calls as she knocks him down, causing Blue to fall on his back with a grunt.
-
Ai giggled on top of Blue, and she started to babble to him tapping the young Vaseterm with her fluffy hoofs.

"Ai!" Victoria called coming down the hall after after the Little Filly " uh, I should have known it was you, she was so excited about " the Queen Vaseterm smile warmly at the two Royals

Blue laughed as Ai tapped him with her fluffy hooves, "Okay missy, let me up" he gently nudges her back, then shifts to his true form as well, watching as Ai started trying to prance around him and bump into his legs. "Hmm" he hums as he watches her, "Anywhere we can go? Where she can chase me like this? Might help make her legs stronger, so she's not doing that" he asks Victoria and flicks his ear to the little Vaseterm backing up her rump into his hindlegs

Blue laughed as Ai tapped him with her fluffy hooves, "Okay missy, let me up" he gently nudges her back, then shifts to his true form as well, watching as Ai started trying to prance around him and bump into his legs. "Hmm" he hums as he watches her, "Anywhere we can go? Where she can chase me like this? Might help make her legs stronger, so she's not doing that" he asks Victoria and flicks his ear to the little Vaseterm backing up her rump into his hindlegs
-
Victoria chuckled at the two " yes, I think she should be able to handle going out side know, there plenty of room for you both to run around in the Gardens, you seen part of one on your way to the gate, there a much bigger part of it" she explain and wave a hand as she headed down the hall
-
Blue moved his head around, grabbing Ai's fluffy tail and dragging her around in front of him, "Follow Victoria Ai" he says gently, using his snout to nudge her along.

Ai giggles and runs forward, clumsily and does to Victoria what she did with Blue, knocking the Vaseterm Queen down and tapping her with fluffy hooves.

Victoria was knocked down but she couldn't help but laugh with the Little Filly, pulling herself forward and gently holding Ai head the Queen rubbed her nose to Ai's snout giving her nose kisses " come Ai, lest go outside and play" she said then kiss the little filly on the snout, making Ai squealed happily.
Victoria gently move Ai off her so she to could shift into her true form, the Vaseterm Queen was just a few hands shorter then Blue. "Ai, walk like this " Victoria stepped with her Hooves in a prance as they made their way outside. Ai giggled and try to copy the queen but was rather klutzy in doing so, and the Queen giggled along with her
-
Blue watched the two females, his ears flicked as he found it entertaining. He followed the two giggling females, but couldn't help himself and pranced as well behind them to the garden. When they got outside, he stretched out his wings, "This feels nice" he stretches, then folds his wings again, trotting past the two.
-
Ai babbled at Blue when he when by. Victoria lunged the little Vaseterm with her snout " go run and play Ai" she tells her sweetly.
Ai Smile and took off running funny and clumsily giggling as she when pass Blue further into the garden.

Victoria had her ears forward towards Blue " you better catch up, Blue she going to leave you behind" she teased watching The Little filly clumsily runAi babbled at Blue when he when by. Victoria nudged the little Vaseterm with her snout " go run and play Ai" she tells her sweetly.
Ai Smile and took off running funny and clumsily giggling as she when pass Blue further into the garden.

Victoria had her ears forward towards Blue " you better catch up, Blue she going to leave you behind" she teased watching The Little filly clumsily run

Blue listened to Ai's babbling and watched the tiny filly run off, he smirked back at Victoria, then chased after Ai.

He caught up to her fairly quickly, carefully prancing up beside her, "Come on Ai, come catch me" he prances passed her, waving his tail by her snout. Causing the small girl to squeal excitedly and she ran after him....in her own clumsy way, Blue kept himself just ahead of her.
-
Victoria watched the two young Royal play, her ears forward, she wished she would have found this place a long time ago, so she didn't have to abandon her child in fear of Omen and the others creatures of Darkness finding her.
-

Ai squealed happily at Blue, her hooves clumsy as she try to catch the male Vaseterm tail, the little Philly open her mouth and reached out with her lips like horses do to grab a piece of his silvery white tail.

The Vaseterm Queen's ears laid back, as she watched, she knew a day would come when Omen would eventually find them here, and that day may be sooner because of what Blue and Ethan did.
-
Blue laughed as he watched Ai reach to grab his tail, he slowed a bit so she could grab it more easily, "Ahh you caught me Ai! I can't escape!" he shouts dramatically, carefully laying down and rolling onto one side. He lets his head flop down, pretending to be dead.

Ai lets go of his tail and sneaks around to his head, Blue has his eyes closed for the moment as he feels Ai sniff at his face. He then opens his eyes and says "Boo!" Ai squeals, running in a circle, then she starts attacking his head with her fluffy hooves.
-
Victoria smiled at the two Royals playing there game // to be young again// she signed pleasantly. The Queen trotted over " well done Ai, you got Blue" she chuckled.

Ai squealed "Glue!" She giggled and babbled as she pod with her fluffy hooves at Blue

Blue lifts his head so Ai had to stop her assault on him, "Glue...." he laughs, shaking his head, "Ai, my name is Blue, like the sky" he stands up, shaking himself out.

He looks to Victoria, a playful gleam in his eye, "Come on Victoria, play with us! Don't tell me you're too old" he teases, quickly scooping his head under Ai and lifting her onto his neck, he gallops off. "Ai don't let the old lady catch us!" he shouts, snickering, Ai giggles, "Old lady, old lady!" she mimics Blue
-
Victoria shook her head with a smile "I may be old to you two, but I'm not in my last thousand yet" she reared up making her silvery white Main flow and Shimmer in the light. " I'm coming to get you Ai" She teases and gallops After them
-
Blue picks up the pace, galloping ahead of her, he kept his wings tight to his sides and was tempted to fly away since Victoria didn't have wings, but he decided to play fair.

Ai slid down Blue's neck to his shoulders, ears perked up as her head bobbed up and down as Blue ran, giggling and blowing raspberries at the Queen

"Ai that's rude" Victoria teased then blew a raspberry right back and chuckled. The queen picks up her pace, easily gaining on the male Vaseterm.
thought females did not have physical wings, there frame where smaller and slimmer then males making them fast on foot.

Victoria caught up and gently nudged Ai "tag, your it" she said with a smile making the little filly giggle. Then picked up her pace even more and passed the young Royals she looked over her shoulder with a smirk "don't let the old lady out do the young /foals/"Victoria shook her head with the last word, it was what a young horse was called but it was also
Faolan Dreamer​ nickname, the Queen galloped even faster going into a wooded area of the garden
-
Blue watched as Victoria caught up, listening to Ai giggle, he spread out his wings at her taunting and pumped them to make himself go faster, until he reached the forest.

He stopped and let Ai off, "Go catch the old lady" he nudges her in another direction and the little filly takes off at her usual pace into the bushes, Blue chases after the direction Victoria went, frowning because he couldn't use his wings in the woods.

Victoria was hiding behind some bushes, she could hear Ai giggling and tromping around. The Queen's ears perk as she picked Over the hedge seen the little filly looking for her in Ai clumsily way, she smiled and amusement // she learning quickly // she was focused on the little black Vaseterm and lost track of the Royal male
-
Blue walked quietly through the woods, he soon caught a gleam of something shiny out of the corner of his eye and spotted Victoria watching Ai.

He shifted and moved up silently behind her, flinging himself onto her back, "You know the bad thing about being a Vaseterm is we stick out like sore thumbs" he snickers.
-
Victoria yelped and surprised, but hearing Blue voice she keep herself from bucking out of reflex when he hop on her back, turning her head towards Blue on her back " I must be losing my touch, 10,000 years ago it would not have been so easy to sneak up on me, despite how flashy "

Ai hear the commotion in the bushes and came over to investigate, still playing her game she ran into the Queen's Lag " tag!" And mimic her
-
Blue laughed, climbing off her back and looking to Ai as she bumped into the Queen's leg, he heard his stomach growl, having not eaten in a few days, after his incident.

"I'm gonna go eat, feel free to play without me" Blue starts walking off, back to the palace. Ai starts headbutting the Queen's leg, over and over again

Victoria flipped her ears at Blue announcement, " somebody has to wear her down before bedtime" she teased, and put down her head to Ai and let little filly bump her horns against the Queens
-
Blue went inside and headed to the kitchen, temporarily forgetting about the chaos he'd caused, he strolls into the kitchen, looking for something to eat
-
There were a few Vaseterm's getting supplies out of the kitchen to take back to the new makeshift Infirmary they we're gossiping about what happened, but when Blue came in the room feel silent, they quickly gather their things and went out the opposite door not giving the young Vaseterm another look. Sokio had a smug look on his face, he was leaning back in a chair with his feet on the table " you're quite the celebrity now kid" he said sarcastically
-
Blue felt his heart drop when he caught some of the gossip, watching the Vaseterm leave quickly, he sighed quietly to himself. Then clenched his fists as he heard Sokio, "Oh shut up" he smirks, "Accidents happen, how's that wing of yours doing?" he asks smartly

Sokio smirked " it's doing better then your reputation" he sarcastically came back, even though his wing was in a brace, the Vaseterm put his feet down and Lean Forward putting his elbows on the table " but Royals have a nasty reputation to begin with, your all no different from Omen " he said with a cold glare
-
Blue shot him a glare, "If I was no different from Omen" he walks forward, slamming his palms down on the table, "I'd have ripped your wings off and watched you squeal like the miserable pig you are, before I'd crush you, ending your pathetic existence" his eyes are cold and emotionless as he stares into Sokio's. He then smirks and heads over to the fridge, "Now be a good boy before I 'accidentally' awaken and they find the body of a rat buried beneath the rubble" he grins at Sokio, "Or Kyro can pay you another visit"
-
It took everything Sokio had to had his fear as Blue threatened him, he growled under his breath"your all monsters" the male Vaseterm then got up and headed to the door giving Blue a cold glare "so you do to me what happened to the wolf boy? That's right know one has seen him since your little 'accident'" raising his chin up with a smug look "I'm surprised the queen hasn't exiled you but she favors royalty anyways"

Blue was eating some leftovers when Sokio said that, he paused and looked back at the Vaseterm, "Ethan's gone?" he feels guilt pierce him, remembering how terrified the halfblood had been. //Ethan// he finishes what he was eating and starts to head out, purposely bumping Sokio with his shoulder as he went passed.
-
Sokio held his smug look even when Blue bumped him, even if it was just a little the male Vaseterm would take anything to take a Jab at the young Royal. And he knew that there was a new Royal now one younger then Blue
-
Blue walked down the hall, his back burning as he felt Sokio's gaze, he clenched his fists angrily, wanting to knock the smug look right off of him.

"Ethan!" Blue called, searching for the halfblood, he then pauses, //I can pinpoint too! Can't I? Like what we did with Omen// he stands still, picturing Ethan in his mind and hoping it'll work.
-
A image of Ethan appeared in Blue mind, the wolf was standing staring blankly at the Rubble the woman was almost crushed under, he shocked his head and back up before turning around and spreading his wings, the wolf boy took off heading north towards the mountains out side the city
-
Blue blinked a few times as he saw where Ethan was, he raced down the hall to the shattered infirmary, gritting his teeth as he saw Ethan long gone. //Where's he going?// Blue races in, spreading out his wings and tearing off in the direction he'd seen Ethan go.

As Blue flew in the direction Ethan went he seen more Visions of we're the wolf boy was heading, leaving the city the scenery was farm lands and fields beneath the young Vaseterm after some time a Forest came interview, another vision show Ethan flying toward a large lake with a dam.
-
Blue continued to follow his visions of Ethan, going as fast as his wings could take him. He shot out of the city, over the farm lands and fields, Blue couldn't help but admire the scenery as it changed, as the last one flashed in his mind, his brows knitted together, "Ethan!" he yells after cupping his hands around his mouth.
-
Ethan look worn down, he had been crying and appeared that he haven't gotten any sleep, the wolf boy was sitting on the ledge of the Dam, he heard Blue and flinched and pin his ears back, but didn't answer the royal Vaseterm call //...how did he find me? Did he use a vision? It doesn't matter....// He started down, and fiddled with a black dagger in his hand
-
Blue flew above the dam, looking for Ethan, he finally spotted the wolf boy and landed not too far from him. He carefully approached the halfblood, "Ethan?" he calls gently, noticing the dagger as he got closer, "I'm sorry for what happened, I didn't mean to hurt you like that"
-
Ethan slowy trun his head to Blue, "no, it's my fault...I did it" the wolf boy eyes where dull as he fiddled with the dagger "I thought you could stop him,... But I was wrong... War Horse, only bring death, it my fault"tear running down Ethan face, he take the black dagger and was bringing it up to his chest, an attempt to kill himself

Blue listened to Ethan, but when the half blood brought the dagger to his chest, he bolted forward, his chest pressing to Ethan's head as he reached forward with both hands and grabbed onto Ethan's hands holding the dagger.

"Ethan don't, it's not your fault, I made the decision to go, you wanted justice for whatever happened" Blue says, holding onto his hands tightly, "Blame me, blame me all you want, I made a mistake and gave into my fear like a coward, causing you and others pain" he feels tears building up, "Please just don't do this, don't kill yourself Ethan" he pleads
-
" I only made things worse, you wouldn't have gone if it wasn't for me..." Ethan started to sod from Blue words, he didn't resist the Royal from stopping himself for taking his own life, " I...I gave into my fear and kill my mother..." The wolf boy voice was broken with tears " I'm the cowardly one, Blue, and I try to use you because of it, and I only made things worse"

" I only made things worse, you wouldn't have gone if it wasn't for me..." Ethan started to sod from Blue words, he didn't resist the Royal from stopping himself for taking his own life, " I...I gave into my fear and kill my mother..." The wolf boy voice was broken with tears " I'm the cowardly one, Blue, and I try to use you because of it, and I only made things worse"
-
Blue slowly pries the dagger away from Ethan, "We all have our weaknesses and fears Ethan, you saw me give into mine, I'm seeing you give into yours now" he says gently, holding onto the half blood so he didn't try anymore stunts.

"You can't blame yourself, we both want Omen dead for the pain he's inflicted upon everyone" Blue says, pausing for a few moments, "I thought Omen killed your mother? Isn't he the reason you fear the War Horse?"

Ethan sod for a while as Blue held him, he slowy nodded his head " he is" looking to the dagger Blue took from him " that belongs to Omen" his voice was solemn, the half blood was still young and didn't need to where gloves yet, but his touch could still trigger a vision if he wanted to." I can show you my sin..." Ethan close his eyes and gently placed his hand on Blue at his touch it trigger a vision connected to the dagger.

-

The world around the two changed, they were in a clearing surrounded by a burning Forest with purplish red flames, couldn't tell what time of day was because the smoke with heavy in the dark sky. Omen stood in the middle of the clearing, his black armor of is War Horse form was Staind with red blood mainly around his hooves, his tail flipped back and forth as he stare down at two Sliverbloods, one was a female Vaseterm, her legs have been crushed and was bleeding from several wounds, and she was cradling a small male midnight Walker, Ethan look about 6 years old, his hair was a darker brown with no silver in it at all, his wings were still small but by the way they were bent they were obviously broken, he was clinging to his mother trembling with fear and tears.

" You should have known better than to hide in a short life Village, you stick out to much, and I couldn't just let it slide that they Sheltering a half blood " Omen said sarcastically wiping his hands together " but then again I didn't expect to find a midnight Walker and a male from that matter! I feel like I just won the lotto or something!" He said with excitement
-
Blue held onto Ethan as he spoke, doing his best to listen and be some comfort to him. He looked down at the dagger, //That's Omen's?//

He gasps as Ethan touched him and a vision took hold of him. His eyes widened at the sky and his gaze travelled to the blood soaked war horse, //Okay now I understand why someone would be afraid of a war horse// he felt his stomach twist with dread and fear at the sight of what was happening.

Ethan stood next to Blue he closes his eyes and clenched his fist, at the memory that still haunted his dreams.

-

Ethan mother held on tight to her son with fear in her eyes " please! He just a boy! I beg you to spare his life! " She pleated to the War Horse.

Omen rubbed the chin on his helmet " hmmmm, this is kinda a special case" he hum in thought, snapping his fingers with idea " I know! Let's play a game! It will be fun!" Kneeling down he takes one hand in a Fist and chance making it glowed then he opened his hand and a Black Dagger meant for human size was there " I place a seal on this Dagger and who ever has it, I can't touch" taking his other hand and pointing his index finger up " But~~ there a catch, it takes another Sliverblood life to make it work! Meaning I'm giving you a choice, you can kill your son and you will never see me again, Or he can kill you and I can't kill him" Even though Omen was wearing his helmet by his tone one could tell he was enjoying himself.
-
Blue felt disgusted to his core at Omen's words, the way he seemed to enjoy hurting others, he clenched his fists in anger, tears streaking his face. //I'd never do that! Why couldn't I have been born earlier? So I could have been stopping Omen years ago.....who am I kidding? I've been around over 400 years and knew nothing until Qui and Jason found me// he puts a hand to his forehead, knowing the outcome of the vision.

Ethan's fearful were locked on to the Black Blade"m-om! I can't!"
Ethan mother look at the dagger that was offered "N-no, I can't kill my son!" She looked up at the Warehouse "what if we can't? I'm not going to kill my own child"

Omen dropped the dagger next to the mother and child, and stood up " well I can always just kill you both" he raised his hoof just above the two " but seen I'm a nice guy, I decided to make a deal with you, so it's your choices, one of you can live, or~ you can both die together, but I'm not going to what all day, will my foot in the air"
Tears running down both their faces, Ethan mother reach and picked up the Black Dagger, she pulled off her necklace and grabbed her son hand, " Ethan, I love you so much, don't blame yourself, this is my choice" placing the jewelry in the half blood Palm, she took his hand and placed it on the Dagger and move it above where her heart was.
"N-no Mommy! I can't!" Ethan cry out.
She placed her other hand on his cheek and wiped his tears and smile Softly "I will always love you..."
-

As she was moving his hand with the Dagger, Ethan let go of Blue hand in reality breaking the hold of the vision, before they seen what happen, but it was only obvious, Ethan was still alive and his mother was not.

Ethan open his eyes, tears were flowing from them as he trembled, he glanced over at the dagger in Blue hand "I kill my own mother, to save my life..." he Undead His necklace that his mother gave him and look down at it in his hands " I stay with her for days, I don't remember how many after Omen left....I didn't want to, but i had to leave her there... Victoria and Qui found me almost dead, it was weeks before I woke up, it was thank to Qui nursed me back to health I lived, she told me Victoria found what was left of my mother and gave her a proper burial"Ethan explain with tears

Blue felt horrified by what he was seeing, especially when Omen lifted his hoof over them. He inhaled sharply as the vision broke, he didn't have to guess what happened next.

"I'm not quite sure what to say, but I think the outcome would have always been the same, I don't know a Mother who'd rather her live than her baby" Blue says, looking down at the dagger in his hand. "Ethan what happened was horrible, but it was out of your control, you were so young" he pauses, "The only thing we can do is keep fighting, honor the ones who've sacrifice themselves for us. Who've died at that monster's hand"
-
Ethan lend against Blue, he still had tears running down his face as he nodded his head " I hope one day Omen is gone, so know one else has to suffer by his hands"
-
Blue finally relaxes as Ethan leaned back against him, he twirls the dagger in his hand, "Should we go back now? I'm sure others are worried about us....as long as you're feeling up to it?"
-
Ethan look up at Blue for a moment" I think I can make it back" he step away from Blue and shifted to a fluffy brown wolf with some silver strips of fur and red marking on him, " I to be in this form to save energy though" he spread his wings ready to go

Blue stood up as he moved away, smirked as Ethan shifted, "Alright, let's have a race then" he shifts to his true form and stands beside Ethan, "On the count of three, the first one back wins, loser has to help rebuild the whole infirmary" he paws the ground, "One....Two....Three....Go!" he gallops forward, racing across the dam
-
Ethan ears pinned back // I just said I needed to save energy...// he sighed then took of after Blue across the dam. the half blood flap his wings just to keep up
-
Blue kept just ahead of him, then spread out his wings as he leapt off the dam and took off into the sky, flying a bit awkwardly at first, he then gained his balance.
-
Ethan, keep at his own pace, he followed after the Royal,the halfblood ears perked forward, a small smile was on his snout with Blue struggling to fly in his true form, Ethan beaded his wings he was much more comfortable flying in this form then his other, he tilted his wings and caught a current to use and glided, he keep at a decent pace well saving energy. Soon the scenery changed from the forest to the farmlands.
-
Blue noticed horses below in the farmlands, "I wonder what people would say if I landed there and pretended to be one, think they'd notice?" he laughs, picking up speed to get home faster.

Ethan manage to laugh at that, he gawked at the horses below " I think they notice pretty quick, it not hard to Miss a Vaseterm expecially a Royal Male" pumping his wings the halfblood caught up with Blue, he angled himself to fly under the royal then tilted his wings so he Glide out from under Blue then over the top of the Royal before leveling out again at wing level to Blue.
The scenery again changed to now a modern city
-
Blue watched as Ethan flew under and around him, he gave a small toothy grin, the best he could in this form, "Can't very well lose now can I?" he laughs and starts beating his wings, tearing off across the city towards the palace.
-
Ethan pumped his wings even more to try and keep up with Blue, his smile fadde when the Palace came interview // I wonder how long it would take to fix it back up?...//
-
Blue noticed it was getting pretty dark out and he hadn't even talked to Qui since he'd thrown her in the water. He beat his wings even harder, not so much to win, but to see her again. He raced through the barrier, stumbling a bit as he landed and bolted to the palace doors, "I win Ethan!" he laughs, running around and through the infirmary. He doesn't bother to shift back as he trots inside the palace, through the hole

Ethan beat his wings to at least try and keep pace with the Royal, he landed just a little after Blue and snort when the Royal declare that he won.
Suzano was helping in the construction site of the Infirmary, she see the two young males fly in, and call out to the missing boy. Ethan Trot over to the nurse and she started looking over the tired pup.

-

Sokio had Qui pin up against the wall next to her room " and you should put a leash on your mate! Everything that happened lately is because of him!" The male Vaseterm shouted angrily.
Qui pointed her finger in Sokio face" your just jealous of Blue! He done more good in the little time he been here, then you for the thousands of years of your existence!" She said firmly not backing down.
Anger was in Sokio eyes what Qui said was true and he knew it "Why would I be jealous of him?! He nothing but a fool! A lost child that knows nothing about his kind! And to proof that! He picked a short life * he called her inappropriate name* as his mate! " The male Vaseterm shouted in Qui face
-
Blue trotted down the halls, but he stopped when he picked up Sokio's distinct yelling, he sighed, //That guy's so full of hot air// he continues making his way to Qui's room, noticing the yelling getting stronger and the words Sokio was spewing out.

He rounded the corner to see his mate pinned, by someone he hated no less, rage flared in his chest, even more when he called Qui an inappropriate name. He pinned his ears back, his eyes blazing with rage as he charged, his hooves heavy on the floor as he ran. Tucking his head down, he aimed to impaled Sokio on his horns.
-
Qui shook her head with disgust at the male Vaseterm " Lost Child or not! Blue more of a real Vaseterm then you will ever be! " Sokio curled his lip at the female shapeshifter he was about to say more when the sound of thundering hooves came charging down the hall " oh, shi-!" Sokio shrieked surprised that the young Royal was back already. The male Vaseterm knew he couldn't get out of the way in time so he grabbed Qui and was going to use her as a Shield " Let me go, you pigeon!" Qui struggled against the male

Blue saw him use Qui as a shield, he quickly slammed his hooves into the floor to break himself, cracking the tiles as he did so. He stopped mere inches from impaling Qui, he quickly backed up a bit, lifting his head and glaring at the other Vaseterm. His nostrils flared, "Let her go Sokio" he purposely flashes his fangs at him, eyes burning like fire.
-
//Blue!// Qui felt relieved seen her mate but couldn't help out of reflex to flinching and closing her eyes as he slid at her. She opened one eye just to see Blue horns inches from impelling her."Blue!" Qui call as Sokio tightened his grip on her.
" Like hell I'm going to do that! I know that look in your eyes!" The Vaseterm started to backup pulling Qui with him.
Qui look up at her chapter " your afraid because Blue in the eclipse and you don't know how much he can control it!" She snap
-
Blue followed Sokio as he backed up, his ears twitched as rage pulsed through him, he noticed that Sokio didn't have a weapon on Qui. He took advantage of that, shifting and ripping Qui away from Sokio, Blue lunged at the other Vaseterm, letting out a rage filled roar, "You hurt Qui! I'll kill you!"

Qui squeaked as she was ripped away from Sokio, she stumbled a little, then trun around to the two fighting male's.

Sokio yelped when Blue lunged at him, the Vaseterm wanted to fly to get away but his wing was still in a sling. " I wouldn't be stupid enough to try a stunt like that!" Sokio hiss and
bared his fangs to look more intimidating even though he was afraid if the Royal.
-
Blue didn't process that Sokio was baring his fangs at him, he tackled the other Vaseterm to the ground, once he got him down, Blue dug his knee into Sokio's gut and started punching him hard in the face, repeatedly, holding nothing back.
-
Sokio was about to start chanting to defend himself with a spell, but Blue fists to his face stop that form happen. striped multiple times he started to bleed more then just a busted lip.

Qui cover her mouth as Blue was knocking the snot out of jerk, " Blue that enough! You won"

Blue didn't listen to Qui, he kept beating on Sokio until he'd knocked the male Vaseterm out and his fist was covered in Sokio's silver blood. He breathed heavily, his chest heaving with anger, "I should kill the bastard, for all that he's done" he snarls, raising his fist again to break Sokio more.
-
" Blue, stop please " Qui grabbed Blue arm before he could knock Sokio's block off a few more times " don't do this..." She looked down at the unconscious Vaseterm, she was angry at him for everything he done but she knew this wasn't right either " Sokio may deserves it, but if you do it, then you be doing what he believes you are, that a Royal can take the life of another and be like Omen., But you are nothing like him" she glared down again " and your better then Sokio"
-
Blue stopped when Qui grabbed his arm, taking a few deep breaths as he listened to her words. He sighed as he calmed down, "I know" he whispers, looking tiredly up at Qui, "He just got me so angry" he slowly gets up and off Sokio, kissing the back of Qui's hand, "Im sorry"
-
Qui blushed when Blue kiss her hand " getting on people skin is Sokio hobby, he a miserable sole and what others to be miserable to" taking Blue hand gently she noticed how exhausted Blue look " you didn't get any Moonlight last night and you haven't fully recovered from Awakening, you need to get some light on your wings or you will get sick " she started to lead him to the closest balcony.
And didn't care about Sokio K.O on the floor

Blue didn't care about Sokio either, following Qui to the balcony, where the moonlight was shining brightly, he stood behind her and spread out his large decorative wings, absorbing it and letting out a relaxed sigh. He kept his eyes closed, his arms spread out slightly with his wings.
-
Qui trun to face Blue, she sighed softly, the way the Royal glow in the moonlight was enchanting, Qui started talking in his Beauty for a moment before speaking up "you feeling better?" She as with a shy smile
-
Blue opened his eyes, the moonlight seeming to reflect in them as he looked to Qui, a warm smile spreading over his features, "Yes, much better, especially now that you're safe with me" he gently pulls her into his embrace, holding her in his arms as he closes his wings around them, breathing in her scent.
-
Qui Lean her head against Blue chest when he pulled her close, listening to the Royals heartbeat, the shapeshifter felt safe in the shelter of his wings " you had me just as worry, you need to take care of yourself to" she whispered gently
-
Blue kissed the top of her head, "I know, I'm sorry Qui" he sighs lightly, "I didn't mean to worry you, I just sort of fell into my own pool of misery. But I did save Ethan today"

" It's fine Blue, it's been hectic lately"Qui spoke Softly taking in the Royal Vaseterm scent. She looked up at him " you found Ethan? We been looking everywhere for him" she tilted her head " but you Save him?"
-
"I could use some peace, but I feel this won't last long with Omen still alive" Blue shudders, "I pinpointed him and stopped him from killing himself, he showed me why he fears the war horse, what happened to him" he murmurs
-
Qui sighed she wished this moment with last but knew Blue was right, as long as Omen was alive everyone was endanger. She leaned her head against Blue again "oh, Ethan..." She whispered concerned for the wolf boy" Omen has done many horrible things, and what he thinks is fun is terrible" Qui tiptoe and kiss Blue on the cheek "thank you for finding him and saving him, Blue"
-
Blue nods slowly, "Of course" he smiles down at her, "I'd be no better than Omen if I didn't do my best to help others in their time of need, especially when I made him relive a terrible time in his life" he sighs, "Are you tired Qui? Even with the moonlight, I still feel groggy" he mumbles, his cheek resting on her head.
-
"I could use some sleep, my kind is supposed to do that at night" Qui teased in a whisper. She took Blue hand and started back inside on there way to the dorms Qui remembered something and her cheeks reddened " Umm... Blue you shouldn't probably sleep in your room until it gets clean up, and I-I broke the door to your room to" she fidgeted with a lock of her hair " i-if you like you can stay in my room" Qui blushed just by asking even though they were mate

Blue's face reddened as he listened to Qui, "Uhh, s-sure I'd like that" he smiles nervously, heading to Qui's room with her. When they got there, he stood still, heart pounding in his chest, //I've never slept with a female before! And Qui too// he takes a breath and holds it
-
Qui noticed that Sokio was gone, either someone found them and pick them up or he woke up and got out of there himself, but she didn't really care. Opening the door to her room Qui lead Blue Inside

{Skip to the next day...}

Qui was resting peacefully on Blue shoulder when the morning Light filtered in thought her window, she slowy opened her sleepy eyes and blink a few times to wake up, she looked up at Blue and Smile Softly " good morning Blue" she kiss him on the cheek " d-did you sleep well?"
-
Blue woke when Qui kissed him, taking a few moments to wake up properly, "Yeah" he yawns, stretching his arms above his head, grinning down at her, "How did you sleep?" he asks, slowly sitting up to stretch more.

Qui move as Blue did, and sat up, " pretty good" she smiled then got out of bed and stretched " I'm going to go check on Ai, lady Victoria said she watch her yesterday but I know she has other things that she has to take care of" Qui went over to her dresser and changing like she did before, but in a new outfit
She looked at the Royal and she fidgeted with her hair " w-ould you like to come with me or do you have another plans?"
-
Blue got out of bed, dressing again, but leaving his boots on her bedroom floor. He broke his disguise, stretching out his wings, "Sure I'd like to come" he squeaks out as he stretches, scrunching up his face.
-
"Alright" Qui got a few things off her desk and put them in a small bag a long with the book she stole from Osiris. Putting the strap around her shoulder she headed to her door " I'm guessing they would be having breakfast" she said to Blue as she opened her door to head towards the kitchen

Blue nodded, following her out, his mind went back to the previous day, the last time when he was in the kitchen. When people looked at him like he was a monster and avoided him at all costs, he avoided letting Qui know how he felt, keeping his expression neutral as he followed her.

-
They made it to the kitchen the strong Aroma of food fill the air as she opened the door.The kitchen was bustling with activity, Osiris was at the stove cooking, Ethan was sitting at the table with Jason and Ai, the wolf boy keep staring at the strange girl, she seemed familiar but couldn't place it. Jason noticed his sister come in with Blue and waved to them "Hay! There Qui and Blue!"
Ai turned in her seat and beamed seen the young Vaseterm "Glue!" She squealed.
Victoria had a plate with biscuits and placed it in the table along with other food that was already sitting on it " look like you two got here just in time, come have a set" the Queen smiled.

there was a few Vaseterm eating or getting something to eat to, they stop and looked when Blue Name got mentioned, Victoria shot them a look and they when back to there own business except for one, a tall Female Sliverblood her skin was darker complected compared to the others and she had very long horns on her head "aw, so this is Blue I take it?" She said looking the Royal up and down sizing him up
-
Blue waved back, "Hi Jason!" he chuckles, "Hi Ai" he flinched as a few Vaseterm stopped and looked to him, feeling grateful when Victoria silenced them. He went over before the female addressed him, to Ai, picking her up and rubbing his nose against hers, "Ai, it's Blue" he whispers, smiling warmly at her.

He stops however when he notices the Vaseterm address him, "Uhm, I am Blue and you are?" he tips his head, studying the female.

Ai giggled at Blue.

Qui sat down at the table she couldn't help but notice the other Vaseterm giving Blue looks// they must still blame him for what happened// she turned her attention back to the two young Royals.

The Female Sliverblood smirked and placed a hand on her hip " the name is Jasmine, combat specialist and I heard quite a bit about you Blue, some good and some bad, but I know who your after so that makes you ok in my book " leaning towards the royal she narrowed her eyes at him " but do you really think you got what it takes to kill a devil?"

Victoria rolled her eyes " let him be Jasmine, you can flex your muscles after everyone has something to eat"
-
Blue narrowed his eyes at Jasmine, still holding Ai in his arms, "I've bested him twice, the only reason I couldn't kill him the second time is because I didn't know he had that demon inside him" he growls at her, setting Ai down so she could eat.

He turns his back to Jasmine and sits down with Qui, he starts eating, slowly, his mind thinking about all that had happened with him meeting Omen, til now. He glanced to Ai as she ate.
-
Jasmine smirked at Blue as he turned him back to her, the Sliverblood tipped her head to the queen then left the room.
Qui was listening in but didn't say anything until Blue sat down she lend Over and whispered" Jasmine, is a star scale, a dragon half Blood, her strength is equal to a pure blood Vaseterm, she was sizing you up, because she face Omen to and live" she explained then got distracted when Jason took his spoon with some food on it and slingshotted it at Ethan "food fight!" He grinned.

Ethan flinched and Yelp getting hit "Hey! Stop that Jason!" He wip it off himself pinning his ears back glaring at the horse shapeshifter, who was snickering.

"Jason! The table for eating not playing around" she scolded her brother.

Ai was laughing at the commotion at the table, she poked at her food with a fort and was going to mimic Jason when Victoria shook her head " Ai that not very lady like"
Ai scrunch her nose at the Queen then noticed Blue, she grind at him and held up her fort with some food on it to him "eat!"
Osiris brought over more food and placed it on the table, thought some of the others didn't notice but the Phoenix shapeshifter was avoiding Omen Sister he wasn't looking at her and keep his distance as he delivered the food.

Blue watched as Jasmine left the room, he was going to respond to Qui when Jason started flinging food, //Jasmine must be pretty strong to face Omen and live to talk about it, especially considering she's not a royal//

He looks down as Ai holds up a fork full of food, he smiles and eats the food off of it, quickly swallowing it, "It's so yummy Ai, now why don't you try some?" he whispers softly, Ai looks at her food and starts to eat some. While she is distracted, Blue picks up a biscuit and hurls it at Jason's head, nailing him and grinning.
-
Ethan cover his mouth to hide his laughter when Jason got nailed.

Jason Yelp " oh! It's on now!" The shapeshifter grind and grab a biscuit and when to Chuck it at Blue.

Qui rolled her eyes " Jason what did I just say?!" She scolded him again, but the biscuit was already flying through the air towards his Target
-
Blue swatted away the biscuit and it hit Qui in the head, "Ha! Your aim sucks Jason!" he grins, picking up another biscuit, this time he does a small chant and lights it on fire. He pitches the lit biscuit at Jason.

Ai finally sees what's going on and throws some food as well, hitting Victoria and Qui as she giggles.

Qui squid getting hit and she shot both boys a glare.

" Oh, snap!" Jason eyes widen with the flaming comet coming at him, he quickly took his plat and used it as a Shield.

" Hey! Cut it out you too! Your teaching Ai bad habits" Qui scold them getting irritated at the males
Victoria was lost in thought as the table was in chaos, she was snapped back into the present when food hit her. Picking up a Biscuit the queen looked at it " Qui...in the future you will look back on this day, make it one that you will smile when reminiscing it"she takes her biscuit and Chuck it at Ethan.

Qui pick up a pancake in both hands // the future?... Did she this?// Deciding to think about it later she hurls the breaded saucer at Blue and the other at Ai
-
Ai squealed as Qui's pancake hit her dead on in the face, she peeled it off her face and threw it at Ethan.

Blue caught the pancaked Qui threw at him, grinning widely, he pours syrup all over it and then smears it on Qui's head and face, "Have fun getting that out of your hair!" he laughs and backs away from her. Picking up a sausage, Blue eats it, figuring he might as well eat something, he then grabs another biscuit, loading it with syrup and pitches it at Victoria.
-
Ethan had his arms over his hand, along with his wings shielding him from the bombardment of food been Chuck that him.

"B-BLUE!!"Qui face trun red with frustration as she peeled off the sticky pancake
Victoria snatch the biscuit out of the air and grin at Blue " you need to try better than that young Prince" she Whispers at chant as she weights for Jason to Chuck some food at Blue, and with a grin Victoria throws the biscuit at Blue.

Blue snickered at Qui, trying to dodge the food being chuckled at him, he didn't dare use his wings to block it like Ethan was, he didn't feel like cleaning syrup out of them.

He yelped as Victoria's biscuit nailed him in the face and stuck there, he peeled it off, licking the syrup near his mouth. "Alright Victoria, two can play at that game" he chants and then pitches another syrup covered biscuit, before Victoria can catch it, it disappears for a moment, then reappears and nails her in the face. Blue bursts out laughing, Ai laughs with him.
-
Jason at this point was grabbing handfuls and checking it at with out even aiming at anyone in particular, he was just laughing.
Ethan wasn't having any of it, he just hid behind his wings hoping it would be over soon.
Victoria chuckled and pulled the syrupy biscuit off then tossing it at Jason but she keep her eyes on Blue, "that was impressive" she smirked and was starting to move her mouth to chant something when she caught sight of Osiris in the corner of her eye, he was starting blank washing dishes "...I think that enough rough Housing for this morning" turning her attention to the table " now if you help make the mess, you can help clean it up" she shot Jason a look and he grinned and put down a plate of food he was about to through. She also trun her eyes to Blue then to Ai and Smile " young Vaseterm are like sponges taking in everything around them"
Qui had an irritated expression as she try her best to wip the syrup herself " I need an another shower" she Grumble more to herself and look at Ai " you could use one to"

Blue was snickering, enjoying himself like he was as young as Ai again. He stopped throwing food when Victoria said so, holding onto the biscuit he had and looking to Qui as she sounded and looked irritated.

"You need to loosen up and have some fun Qui" Blue says with a wide grin, Ai mimics him with babbles, both young Vaseterm are covered in syrup and food, some food got impaled on Blue's horns, the ones curling by his cheek and he even got syrup on his wings, causing some feathers to stick together.
-
Victoria started to stack dishes helping pick up the mess, Jason was cleaning up to, Ethan had gotten up and excused himself and headed to the showers. Qui rolled her eyes at Blue teasing and Ai mimicking, as she help a little with the clean up stacking some dishes, she turn to the two young Royals "ok you two syrup Royals you both need to get cleaned up" she walked over and pick up Ai, "expecially you " Qui smirked at Blue as she walked by him on her way to the bathrooms

-
Blue grinned as he listened to Qui, "I guess so" he walks out behind her and heads to the male's bathroom, going in and cleaning the syrup and everything else off of himself. It took him quite a long time to get it out of his wings, feeling frustrated as they weighed down and were sticky.

Qui took Ai to the girls side,, it took some time cleaning all the syrup off themselves and she had to be careful about Ai hands but she managed to get her clean, she wap the girl in a towel and headed to her room to get a change of clothes that Ashley had made for her, one Qui got to her room, she opened the door and when in and close it behind her, they both got a clean change of clothes on.
Qui ruffled Ai hair with a towel making her giggle, until she bumped one of the little girl horns, Ai made a pain noised and pulled away then touching her horn. " Ai, I'm sorry I didn't mean to hurt you" Qui said apologetically, she noticing Ai horns had more cracks in them now // she could have Vision any time now, but poor girl only a few days old // " Ai I have something that can help them feel better" she explained the got up and started looking for the Vaseterm horn wraps she kept on hand. Ai was whimpering holdin her horn as she watched Qui.

-

Ethan was in the guy section before Blue, he had been trying to get all the sticky remnants of the food out of his wings, he was grumbling the whole time about having to get them wet Over something he didn't even want to do
-
Blue chuckled as he listened to Ethan, he managed to get his wings cleaned first and left the halfblood to grumble to himself. He walked out, figuring the girls would be long done by now, he shook out his wings as he walked.

When he reached Qui's door, he heard Ai whimpering and knocked lightly on the door, "Qui? Is everything alright? Can I come in?" he asks
-
Qui trun her head when she heard Blue voice " You can come in Blue, Ai horns are cracking more and hurting her, I'm trying to find some wraps to cover them" she explained then when back to looking.

Ai look to the door when she heard the other Royals voice "B-BLUE!" She crying holdin her horn, the throbbing pain only got worse for the little girl

Blue rushed in when he heard Ai crying, he sat beside her and pulled her into a hug, rubbing the small girl's back, "Shhh Ai, I'm here, you'll be okay" he soothes, looking down at her, "It's no fun when your horns hurt huh?" he smiles warmly at her.

Blue continues to talk to Ai, distracting her from her aching horns with small stories of when he was younger, talking about how when he first shifted to his true form, he'd gotten his head stuck in a wall for three days. How he taught himself to fly by jumping off cliffsides and rooftops, resulting in him getting a ton of bruises and scrapes. And the reason why he was jumping off them is because he was usually being chased for stealing food.
-
there was tears in Ai as she held on to Blue for comfort, she leaned her head on shoulder and managed a small smile with Blue store's, she babbled back to him between sniffles.

Qui smile to herself as Blue comforted the little girl // he might be childish sometimes but be has a big heart//
Qui pulled out a spool that had the Vaseterm wraps around it "Yes! I found it"
she quickly when Over to the two Royals and kneel down beside them, " Ai this might feel funny at first but it will help them feel better "she put on her gloves and just started to wrap Ai horns when they started to glow " Blue! She going to have a vision" her voice panicked
-
Blue held onto Ai, sitting the little girl in his lap as Qui found the wraps. He panicked as well when Ai's horns started to glow, "No no no!" he hugged the little Vaseterm to his chest, his eyes wide with panic, "Is there anyway we can stop it? Maybe I can have one too and we could have a cross vision?" he sounds doubtful and fearful, kissing the top of Ai's head as he holds her. //Please let her have a good vision, nothing to do with Judas or violence// he squeezes his eyes shut in anticipation.

Qui was panicking she knew Ai was at the physical age to start having vision but she wasn't like other Vaseterm children. putting a hand on her forehead Qui mind was racing on what to do in the situation "first Visions never last that long, but Ai, she only a few days old, I don't think she understands what happening to her...
I-I can try and call her familiar like it did with you Blue" she look at Ai who was crying more as her horns pulsed, with worry " but Victoria said she has the same dark Magic as Omen" her tone was fearful not just because they share the same Magic but she didn't know just what the little girl familiar was or capable of.

Ai grab her head and screamed she didn't understand what was happening to her, other then her horns was making her hurt "B-BLUE!" She cry out to the Royal and look up at him with sliver tear filled eyes.

Qui heart jumped in her throat, she hated seen the little Vaseterm go through this, she looked at Blue with Panic filled eyes "You might be able to focus a cross vision, but she would have to hold one of your horns and you have to do the same to her, but her horns have the same kind of dark Magic in them" she explained fast, as Ai screamed again, the little girl body froze as her sliver eyes became Vision locked.

Ai had a pain expression as she opened her tear field eyes, confusion and fear feel the little Vaseterm as she looked around her new unfamiliar surroundings, she was in a room with people she didn't know or have seen before "Blue! Blue! Wee! Lady!"Ai call out and started to wonder around, she when up to a female Vaseterm and looked up at her and grind "Hi!" But the woman didn't respond, Ai tipped her head puzzled, then wave her hand and try again but the woman didn't even look, the little Vaseterm when to pull at the woman pants lag but Ai hand went through her like smoke, Ai jumped back, and squeaked holdin her hand in shock, staring for a moment at the woman Ai Babble to herself, she stepped forward and reached out again this time out of curiosity and her hand when though the woman again, she giggled at the smoke going though her fingers and go back to the woman.

Blue looked down at Ai's tearful silver eyes, then to Qui, his mind was swirling with fear and panic as he listened to both girls freaking out.

When Ai became vision locked, Blue frowned up at Qui, "So her horns could inflict pain as well?" he grits his teeth, "I have to try something" he takes Ai's hands and moves them up to his horns so she's gripping them, he then takes a sharp breath and grabs Ai's horns with his bare hands.
-
Ai Follow the woman line of sight, her eyes widen seen other child that resembled herself but was male, he was on his hands and knees panting "Mommy, I can't do anymore, I'm tired" he whined looking up at the woman, "Mommy....?" Ai mimic the boy, she looked up at the woman and frowned she didn't know this person but something didn't feel right about her.
" Judas, you need to be strong and do what your told now try it again" the commanded.

the girl then turned her head back to boy " juice?"
something felt familiar about the young Vaseterm,
Ai walk over to him and put her hands on her knees and tilted her head babbling at him then bounced her tassels looking over the exhausted boy curiously.

The woman walk over and grab Judas by the shoulder with one hand And tipped his head and was about to injected a glowing purple liquid into the base of the boy neck, when Ai felt a burning sensation in her horns and go through her small body, she grabbed her head and screamed squeezing her eyes closed.

A burning pain shot though Blue from touching Ai horns with his bare hands, the pain increased in his horns as a vision was forced turning his eyes silver, Blue war paint trun sliver and glow as he crossed visions with Ai.

The pain quickly subsided for Ai and she opened her eyes to yet another new place, this one was white and stretched as far as the eye can see, the small Vaseterm spotted a familiar face "Blue!" She called relief and happiness filled her as she ran and hug the other Royal, unaware that her touch was causing him pain as long as he was touching her in reality.

Blue let out an agonized cry as pain seared through him, he desperately wanted to let go of Ai's horns, but knew she needed him. His eyes were opened wide as he crossed visions with her, he felt some mild relief in all the pain when Ai ran up and hugged him.

He fell to his knees and hugged her back, "Hello Ai" he whispers gently, his face contorted in pain as he forced a smile, "We need to wake you up from this vision soon" //Before I end up killing myself by holding your horns// he keeps the last part to himself. //Kyro can break visions, so let's give this a try// he tries desperately to focus on his familiar through the pain searing through him.

Kyro soon appears, bigger than in reality and faced the two young Vaseterm as blue and white flames circled around them. The familiar howled and shattered the vision, when Blue snapped out of it, he immediately let go of Ai's horns, she let go of his as well and he fell over. His fingers flexed as his arms twitched, he kept his arms close to himself and let out a hiss
-
Qui cover her mouth when Blue grab Ai by the horns, she passed back and forth anxiously as the two shared the vision.

Ai let out a breath then the vision broke, she blinked her eyes then notice the familiar surroundings of Qui room she was glad to be home, her relieve turn to worry seen Blue on the ground in agony "Blue?!" She reached out to touch him.

Qui was still in a panic, and even more when the two Royal snapped out of it, she quickly got her bag and kneel down beside Blue " let me take a look" she didn't wait for an response, as gently as she could Qui pulled Blue arms away from him and opened his hand to see black marking in his Palms in the shape of Ai horns // this must be her what her Magic does and what do I do to treat this kind of injury?!
// she pulled out some gauze and carefully applied it to his hands, then took some material and wrapped them, " you did good Blue you got her out of it"
-
Blue let his mouth hang open, teeth bared as Qui pulled his arms away from him, his face remained contorted in pain as she wrapped his hands. "Oww" he hisses, gritting his teeth and looking over at Ai who was reaching to touch him.

He flinched as he saw her hand coming closer, he snapped, "Ai! Don't touch me please, I'm in enough pain" he doesn't mean to snap but he didn't want to experience her touch, causing Ai to flinch away from him.

Ai had her hands held against her chest, her facial expression was apologetic and submissive as if she done something wrong.

Qui felt compassion for the little Vaseterm as she flinched away, she knew that Ai didn't understand her powers yet "Ai, your hands hurt Others when you touch them, that's why you have to wear your gloves, so you can touch people with out hurting them" she spoke gently to the child. Qui trun her attention back to Blue who was obviously still in pain, she sighed worry for him and carefully place her hands on him and started to use her healing Magic on the Royal " Blue, you did what you had to, you broke Ai Vision, i...I just wish I knew more, to be helpful" she glace over at the young Vaseterm // if this is what Ai is capable of without trying, and all the things Omen has done.... they we're really meant to be living weapons...//

Ai was looking at Qui as she spoke, the little girl eyes widened then started to look for her gloves, she spotted them on the ground and when over and put them on, she didn't as anything just rubbed her arms looking down.

// And Omen a monster...but Ai, a monster doesn't feel bad for what they done// Qui thought to herself
-
Blue felt terrible as he watched Ai, when she put her gloves on, he sat up, his hands still shaking and gently reached out, pulling Ai into a hug, "It's not your fault Ai, I'm sorry for snapping at you like that" he says gently and stands up, ignoring the aching in his hands as he holds Ai. Blue looks over to Qui, "Do you think Suzano would know anything about how to treat this? She is an expert in her field and has probably dealt with Omen inflicted injuries before" he asks

Qui nodded her head " yes, I think so...she was a nurse during the war with Soledormir and was even was on Delena, she the oldest Vaseterm here, I'm sure she had to treat victims from Omen before" she when Over to her door and open it for Blue, she looked at Ai who had her head leaning against the other Royal, Qui bush a lock of hair out of Ai face " maybe we can find her some bonds like you have for your horns, to keep her from having Vision until she a little older"
-
Blue nodded as he listened to Qui, "Sounds good, Ai doesn't need to have anymore visions until she's old enough to understand them and what's going on" he carries the small Vaseterm out, heading down the hall to the infirmary, "I doubt she could even tell us what she'd seen" he smirks a bit as they reach the infirmary doors.
-
" I don't think she could ether, the only one who can pull someone with them in a vision is Ethan, or if you had the queen dreamwalker cloak, but ether way I think it's best to until she older, especially scenes that Visions have been getting more, and more darker"
Qui said Follow Blue to the Infirmary, it was bustling with activity, most of the damage was repaired but there was still a part of the wall that was missing, there was some Vaseterm using there Magic to reconstruct the broken wall. A few in the room caught sight of the young Royal and they whisper to each other," he was the one responsible... Royals are no different than Omen...What could have made a Royal snap like that?...do you think he will do it again?...are we safe here?"
Suzano was talking to the other nurses directing them to there tasks, when she Cuts in the corner of her eyes of the two young Royals and Qui, she hand a clipboard to one of the other Females " excuse me for a moment"she walked over to them and tipped her head in respect " hello again, how can I help you? "" I don't think she could ether, the only one who can pull someone with them in a vision is Ethan, or if you had the queen dreamwalker cloak, but ether way I think it's best to until she older, especially scenes that Visions have been getting more, and more darker"

"
-
"The dreamwalker cloak?" Blue furrows his brows as he thinks about that, walking into the infirmary, he feels shame pierce his heart at the whispering, his eyes dropping to the floor for a brief moment.

He sets Ai down when Suzano comes over and unbinds his hands to show her the effects of holding Ai's horns, "Ai had a vision and I had to break it by grabbing her horns" he explains, "I was wondering if you knew how to treat this?" he asks, his fingers twitching.

Suzano had seen this kind of injuries before, but more severe, she glace around to see all who was watching, which was quite a few, she didn't want others to eavesdrop in case they found out Ai was related to Omen, because if word got out, Ai live would be at risk, she then look back to Blue " Follow me, I have some that can help" she said then headed to the elevator.

Qui look to Blue then picked up Ai " she been rather cryptic" she whispered to him
-
Blue nodded to Suzano and was about to follow her when Qui spoke up, he nodded and noticed all the others watching them, as much as he hated to do it, he didn't want someone to eavesdrop on them and snarled to everyone in the room, "Ears and eyes to yourself!" he orders and follows where Suzano went, to the elevator
-
The room when quiet with Blue snare, and they went back to doing their own business, just a little more nervously.

One Blue, Qui and Ai was inside,Suzano push a button and the door closed and the elevator started to move.
" My apologies for my vague response, it's just if others found out just who Ai is her life would be at risk, though she is not Omen and I doubt he knows about her ... Many have a great hate towards him for what he has done, and will take it out on her" she trun her gaze to Blue " I myself have seen first hand the damage he has done, I seen we're Others have tried to subdue Omen by the horns, and they received injuries like yours but only more severe, I also seen where they gone mad from the encounter, you where lucky"

Qui was rubbing Ai back as she held the little girl "Ai, not like Omen thought, she doesn't mean to hurt anyone"

Blue looked to Ai worriedly when Suzano said that, he felt a bit of anger at the thought of anybody trying to hurt such an innocent Vaseterm. He snorts, "I've experienced Omen's true nature first hand and I would never take out my hatred on one so innocent" he bares his teeth in disgust, "But I understand not everyone thinks the same, some like to think I'm the same as Omen because I can take the form of the War Horse" he shakes his head
-
Suzano was watching the numbers on the floor "some believe they have nothing left but vengeance, but they know they could never defeat him, and because of what he has done many fear the form that was meant to protect Others" she looked to Blue and gave him a warm smile " Ethan told me what happened at the Dam, even though your War Horse form reminded him of what Omen did, you help him see what a true War Horse is, someone who look out for his kind and that's what you are Blue"

Suzano bit her lip she wasn't sure if she should tell him or not what she found out, but before she could say more the doors the elevator opened, to a Laboratory
-
Blue smiled warmly at what Ethan had told her, "Of course, I may be new to this whole Vaseterm thing, but from what I know and who I am, we, the royals, protect our people" he says boldly, "I will never betray my own kind, I vow to restore what it means to be a War Horse and one day restore Deluna, I'll fight until my last breath to protect our kind" he says with a seriousness to his tone.

Blue looks as the doors open to a Laboratory, he steps out of the elevator, "What is this place?"

Qui smile at Blue for his courageous words // and that why I love//
Soft smile was on Suzano," if you hold true to your words Blue, I believe, you will remind many of what a male Royal is supposed to be" she then trun her attention to laboratory and went inside, there was many machines a long the wall,there was a few that look similar to what Blue had seen on Deluna along with Human computers.
" this is were we make different serums, like the one I gave you after Awakening and your conflict with Victoria, we also run experiments here but nothing to the scale of what Qui and Jason report from the facility on Deluna" Suzano explain and look to Ai, she walked over to a chair and offered for Blue to sit.

Qui Follow along as she was passing a table she noticed a black feather floating in a cylinder, a long with a few vials of blood in a stand, one vial was in a small machine, with a computer attached to it in the cylinder with the feather, she squinted her eyes at the screen it read
[Omen dark star: analysis, (with a whole lot of numbers)

Ai: analysis (with a whole lot of numbers)]

//They must be seen how much they are related? Maybe?// Qui question to herself then look at Ai who fell asleep in her arms
-
Blue listened when Suzano told him to sit, he looked around the room as he sat there, "Whoa" he lets his mouth hang open as he looks around, "You sure do have a lot in this palace" he squints his eyes as he reads some of the signs.
-
"it's nothing like what we had on Deluna but we manage" Suzano with a small smile, she when Over to a counter with a sink and got some stuff to make tea, while the pot was brewing on a little stove, she when over to one of the machinery and opened it and pulled out a bottle with a glowing blue liquid in it and brought it over to Blue " this elixir was made from ingredients from five different worlds, and it will help with against the infection, but one of the side effects is your hands will be numb for a little while" she takes a small sponge and dap it with the elixir and gently start training Blue hands ".... Blue, if you don't mind me asking, is it true you can see Omen in Visions?" Suzano inquired

Qui was wandering around gawking at different things as she rock Ai in her arms, humming quietly to her

Blue nodded as Suzano talked, "Five different worlds huh?" he frowned when she said his hands would be numb for a while, he looked a bit confused when she asked her next question, "Yeah of course I can, why do you ask?"
-
When Blue answered her question, Suzano look up at him //so it is true...// She looked back down at his hands and continued to that the ointment on the black scarring, it started to trun a gray color, with the effects " I ask, because that means your the only one who can see him..." She explained.

Qui stop and looked at the two Vaseterm and tilted her head "but I thought, Others have before?" She tilted her head at Blue

" it's impossible to see Omen clearly in a vision, the few who believe they seen him, he nothing but a blur and his voice is distorted....
But most of all no one has ever seen Omen pass before, until Blue, we knew nothing about we're the devil of the night came from" Suzano explained while wrapping Blue hands in a special clothes with Vaseterm symbols on them
-
Blue couldn't help but frown at what Suzano was saying, "So what does that mean exactly, if I can see Omen as clear as day and others can not?" he paused a moment, "I first saw him at his trial with Matthias and Nevaeh, I thought that was how all Vaseterm had visions" he looks perplexed
-
Suzano was pondering on it herself for a moment "That is how, Vision work, to some degree, Vision can be of Random thing or events, but usually it holds some kind of purpose, if it's to show something in the past, to the possible future so we can better understand what happened, or might happen.
anything that has a strong meaning or purpose can Traeger a vision" she looked Blue in the eyes " there is also the Focus, this is something your vision are focused on, and it seems your is Omen " she got up and went over to the teapot and poured Blue a cup and brought it over to him " this has a bitter taste, but it will help to, "
-
"So it's like something is tying me to Omen, right from my first vision, it's always been something to do with him" Blue furrows his brows as he thinks, he looks up when she brings him the tea, "Thanks Suzano" he takes a drink and resists the urge to spit it out immediately. Blue coughs and sputters as he chugs the tea as fast as he can, his eyes watering, "That's so gross" he whispers

Suzano nodded her head, she held back a chuckle with Blue reaction to the tea " it is, but it helps against the effects of chaos Magic on someone" going back to his first question " I think your vision are trying to warn you about something, but it is odd that you can see him, when no one else can" Suzano gestured to Qui to come over and she did " there something you need to see about Ai " it might have something to it to"
-
Blue stands up after finishing his tea, putting the cup on a tray, he sticks his tongue out, 'bleh' he shakes his head and looks to Ai, "Something to do with Ai? Is there something wrong with her?" he asks with concern
-
"besides from her having chaos Magic, she physically fine, and is learning fast for only been a few days old, I'm not sure if there will be any side effects, from how she was born, Ai is the first I have treated"Suzano explained, when Qui come over with the little sleeping girl, she took her fingers crossed Ai arm bands, making rings appear around her, Suzano move a few symbols around, and a huge display of light appear, there were hundreds of veins that led to symbols" for other Vaseterm this would be were you find there family tree, as you can see Ai is connected to a lot of blood lines..." She pointed out a few symbols " this is the symbol of the silver Spears Blood line, the Queen Blood" she pointed to a few more " this belongs to another Royal, and so does this one, and this one"

Qui blinked in confusion looking at the display " are they all Royals? And if that's the case..." She looked at Blue with wide eyes "the Queen and Blue are related to Ai?"

"Im not for certain most of these blood line are now extinct, but the ones I know are all Royals, so there a good chance that Blue is related to her " Suzano explained

Blue's eyes widened at the display of Ai's lineage, he followed where Suzano pointed, feeling relief that nothing was actually wrong with the small girl, but confusion as well.

"How can Ai be related to /everyone/? Does it have something to do with the way she was created and born?" Blue crosses his arms, looking to Ai now, "Well it's hard to say for me anyways, since my lineage is empty, as you said, no one knows where and who I came from" he smirks, "I'm just as big a mystery as Ai"
-
Suzano nodded her head " that much is true, Ai lineage is puzzling because of the vastness of it, as you have nothing and is just as mysterious, I'm still working on research on the matter, but I can only guess her lineage is do to how she was born" she moved her hands and made the display disappear..

Qui was processing everything as she rock Ai
// If that's really the case, then Blue is also related to Omen...//
-
Blue moved over to Qui and Ai, watching the small girl sleep in his mate's arms, "So many questions and not enough answers" he whispers. "Is it alright if we go now Suzano? Or is there something else?" he asks, resting his chin on Qui's shoulder.
-
Before Suzano could answer Blue, Qui spoke up remembering the other reason why they came " Miss Suzano, would you by chance have any bonds we could use on Ai horns, so she doesn't have anymore until she understands what going on"she asks nicely

" That would be a good idea, but coming across bonds is very rare, they're made out of the same materials found on Deluna, that we can no longer just go there...in saying that, they are only given to special case, and Ai I would say is a special case,
i have a set of bonds that should work for her " Suzano when Over to one of the cabinets and got what she was looking for, and came back, she measured Ai horns and Iadjusted the silver ring bonds to fit the little girl, then held out her hands with the rings and a pair of gloves " I suggest putting them on her when she awake, so you can explain what there for, but other than that your free to go"

Blue yawned as Qui spoke up, his mind wandered back to the kitchen, when Jasmine confronted him, //Someone like that would spend a lot of time in the training area, no?// he thinks, watching as Suzano handed over the rings and gloves, Blue took them in his numb hands, then stuck them in Qui's pockets because she was busy holding Ai.

He lead Qui to the elevator, "Thanks Suzano" he smiles, "For all your help, I really appreciate it"
-
" my pleasure" Suzano bow ber head as the 3 left

Qui Follow Blue into the elevator, she rock Ai and let out a small sigh "we figured one thing out only to find more Mysteries" she mumbles more to herself, then looks to "Blue, how are your hands doing?" She inquired tipping her head to the side
-
"It's that life though? One mystery after the other? Keeps things interesting" Blue grins at Qui, he shakes his hands, "Still numb, it feels weird, like when a part of your body falls asleep and takes a while to wake up, that kind of sensation is what I feel"

"I guess your right about that" Qui, smiled and rock Ai purposely pumping Blue playfully will her hip. She frowned " well at least there not hurting anymore...I wonder how long your hands will be like that? I hope not the whole day" she pondered, the elevator door open back on the main floor, the room was pretty much the same as they left it, the other Vaseterm look at them for a moment then got back to work. "I think this little one need a bed, her Vision must have tired her out...What are you doing to do today?" She asked with a smile
-
Blue smirked when Qui bumped him with her hip, "Who knows, I hope not the whole day either" he steps out of the elevator, glancing to the others and then back to Qui and Ai. "I think I'll go find Jasmine, she seemed interested in me" he shrugs, leaning forward and kissing Qui, "I'll probably be in the training area if you need me" he whispers and starts to head that way.
-
Filled with warmth from Blue kiss, she signed inwardly " alright, and you figure right that most likely were you will find her, as a star scale she as strong as a pure blood, in the Human form, but in her true her strength is greater " Qui nodded and headed in the direction of her room" I'm going to Lay Ai drown for a nap in my room if you need me"

..

Jasmine was in the training room, she was rapidly punching the punching bag making it sway with each hit

Blue heard what Qui said as he headed to the training area, picking up the sound of someone beating on one of the punching bags, he wandered inside and crossed his arms an amused smirk on his face, "Having fun?" he calls to her
-
Jasmine put out her hand to stop the bag from swinging, she trun her head towards the voice and smirk " well if it isn't pretty boy Blue, I was wondering when you show up" she teased, looking over the decorative male, when she first meet Blue in person his appearance was quite impressive to her, he very nice on the eyes and the way he dressed made a statement that the young male was both beautiful and dangerous, but the star scale was curious if it was more then just show // he did best Omen not something every one can do// "just a little warmer up, I was waiting for sparring partner" Jasmine flashed blue a smile
-
Blue grinned, "If that's what you want" he takes his gauntlets off, setting them aside and moving a bit closer to Jasmine, tipping his head to one side, //She stood toe to toe with Judas and lived to talk about it and she's not a royal// he keeps his grin on his face, "How should we start this off?"

Jasmine grind back at Blue " hmmm, show me what you can do with weapon combat" she suggest as she head over to the training Arena, Jasmine summon the whip, and cracked it once smirking at Blue as she wates
-
Blue watched as she summoned her whip, flinching slightly as she cracked it, he followed her into the training area and raised his hand, summoning his halberd. He twirled his weapon and pointed it at Jasmine, "Ladies first" he smirks
-
Jasmine didn't say anything she just smirked, the star scale twirled her wrist making her long silver whip move around herself, in a flash Jasmine cracked her whip hitting the young Vaseterm
-
Blue brought his halberd up, doing his best to block the whip, he'd never fought someone with such a weapon. He purposely spun his halberd around, causing the whip to wrap around it and started to chant, lighting his weapon on fire and sending the fire down the whip to Jasmine.

Blue brought his halberd up, doing his best to block the whip, he'd never fought someone with such a weapon. He purposely spun his halberd around, causing the whip to wrap around it and started to chant, lighting his weapon on fire and sending the fire down the whip to Jasmine.

Jasmine stay calm as the fire came towards her, she began to chant truing her whip Into water, dousing the flames, in her other hand she summoned small sword
" clever move, but you must always be careful that your not falling into a trap" she said as she pulled on her whip forcing the young Vaseterm towards her, even though she was a half blood, as a star scale she was from the strongest of the Verity, as Jasmine pulled she brought her sword up to Blue gut but stop before she impaled him " your form is sloppy, your stands and feet placement left you open " she growled at Blue then flicked her wrist releasing her whip, letting the young Royal go, " in combat with weapons, your stance and posture is key, it can be what makes a victory or defeat" the half Blood changed her weapon to a halberd, then moved her feet and ready her postured into a battle position, to demonstrate " the halberd is both a close range weapon and far, getting in the right position will give you better leverage, control, and accuracy, it's a good weapon in the right Hands,..
. you must also be mindful that your opponent my not use the same method for attack" Jasmine changed her weapon back over to whip and step back making some distance "now trying it again" the star scales turned her wrist making her whip circle around her again
-
Blue yelped as she pulled him close, his eyes wide as she pointed the blade at his gut, he refrained from growling back as she released him. He narrowed his eyes as he watched her, he moved back and watched as she spun her whip around herself again.

//How am I supposed to know all this? My magic is fire based anyways, she'll just counter me with water again// Blue thinks about that, //Water and heat can make mist, right? Hell if I know// he growls in frustration, chanting and lighting up his halberd, he then pitched the blazing hot weapon at her, holding nothing back.

Jasmine chance as Blue's blazing halberd come at her, the star scales whips trun to water again as she spun making a water vortex around her, when the young Vaseterm flaming weapon hit the water wall the confinement of the two elements cause a small explosion making the room fill with mist. One of Jasmine whips got pinned by Blues halberd when it when though, the female dispelled it and squinted her eyes through the Hayes " that was pretty good, even though one element has the advantage over another, Never believe it leave you defenseless or your adversary" moving though the mist " look for opening in there patterns to export their weaknesses" Jasmine kneeled down and placed her hand on the floor and whispered a chant Rings appeared beneath her and water began to flow from it
-
Blue moved into the mist, using his wings to fly up and move silently as he searched for Jasmine, listening as she spoke. He summoned twin daggers, one for each hand, landing behind her and putting the daggers to her neck, "Shouldn't let your guard down Jasmine" he whispers, the blades brushing her skin.
-
Jasmine didn't flinch when Blue's blades where against her throat, "very good, * She paused* but you do realize that your standing on my trap?" The star scales magic circle was still on the ground the water coming from it was ankle-deep " I know how much males love getting their wings wet " she teased with a hint of seriousness in the Dragon half Blood tone. Jasmine smirked,her teal slit eyes glanced to the side, as Blue had her trapped as well " I see your looks isn't just for show, Pretty boy"
-
Blue looked down as the water swirled at his ankles, he bared his teeth, he hated the thought of getting his wings wet and lifted them a little higher to avoid that for the moment. "What are you gonna do Jasmine? Huh? If I was Omen, you'd be dead right now" he whispers, keeping his blades to her throat

Jasmine smirked at Blue threat " see, that is exactly what my enchantment is for, your with in my Circle, and your feet are stuck were they are, if anything happens to me, or i just say a word, my trap will go off, a barrier will go off and fill this ring with water...and I'm not the one who can drown getting there Wings a little wet " she explained calmly "so what are you doing to do Blue?" She mock him
-
"A barrier huh?" Blue grins widely, a flash of blue flames lights up from the fog, away from where they are. Blue starts to chant and a howl is let out, Kyro charges forward, fully ignited as Blue holds onto Jasmine. The familiar shatters her trap and sends both Blue and Jasmine flying from the impact, the familiar places a paw on Jasmine, snarling, Blue wheezes and stands up, "I'm not alone, maybe you forgot?" he smirks, holding his stomach feeling the effects from attacking himself with Kyro.

-
Jasmine granted hitting the ground, she growled and looked up at the fiery wolf pinning her down, " it's hard not to, by the way you stand out" she trun her head to the young Royal " your a fast learner, and you got a head on you pretty boy, no wonder you bested Omen"

Jasmine granted hitting the ground, she growled and looked up at the fiery wolf pinning her down, " it's hard not to, by the way you stand out" she trun her head to the young Royal " your a fast learner, and you got a head on you pretty boy, no wonder you bested Omen"

Blue tipped his head, "Pretty boy?" he plays with his jacket, "I'm just lucky Qui and Jason found me before Omen did or I would be dead by now" he glanced at his familiar and Kyro released Jasmine, laying down and letting his tongue loll out.
-
Jasmine got up one she was released
"aye, the twins do a dangerous job, I'm surprise Omen has not caught on to them yet, *she paused* thankfully his site does not allow him to see everything"
The star scale tipped her head to the side, and gave Blue a Playfully grin " you don't know do you, pretty boy?" She looked the decorative male up and down again
-
"That's true, it would be impossible to escape him if he could" Blue sighs, folding his wings neatly behind himself, then tilting his head questioningly at Jasmine, "What do you mean?" he looks to Kyro and his familiar just tilts his head as well, both confused.
-
Jasmine brought a hand up to her mouth and giggle, at Blue " the way you look and dress, your making a statement, that your not someone to take lightly, I had to see for myself, and you didn't disappoint" she tilts her head and looks at the young Vaseterm thought her eyelashes and grin " and to a female, the more decorative a male is the more attractive he is, and I must say your quite the looker, Pretty boy" she tease the young Royal but there was truth in her words

Jasmine brought a hand up to her mouth and giggle, at Blue " the way you look and dress, your making a statement, that your not someone to take lightly, I had to see for myself, and you didn't disappoint" she tilts her head and looks at the young Vaseterm thought her eyelashes and grin " and to a female, the more decorative a male is the more attractive he is, and I must say your quite the looker, Pretty boy" she tease the young Royal but there was truth in her words

Blue's face reddened as Jasmine explained why he liked to be so flashy, "Oh I had no idea" he frowns and Kyro disappears, "I just thought it was something Vaseterm did, to find other Vaseterm easily, I like it" he smiles to her, "Well I learned something new, thank you"
-
Jasmine chuckled " well your not to far from it, it is a lot easier to spot our kind " the star scale tipped her head respectfully " and thank you, Blue, you show me a thing or two, I can see now see how you live facing Omen"
-
Blue nodded, "Well I still have some energy left if you'd be interested in helping me train in another form?" he smirks, hinting to his war horse form, "I've only fought a few times in it and could use the practice, if you think you can handle it"

" I'm always up for a good challenge" Jasmine grinned eagerly " but we should take this somewhere where we both can stretch our wings" the star scale was referring to her Dragon form " come on, I'll show you the big boys training ground" Jasmine waved for Blue to follow as she headed out the door
-
Blue grinned eagerly as she agreed to it, following Jasmine out of the training area to wherever she was leading him.
-
Jasmine lead the young Royal outside to the gate, she stood before it "I'm sure, you know this leads to other world already, but it does more then that, see on this world we have other locations for different memes, the one I'm going to show you is a bit out of the way" she looks over her shoulder at Blue " you should learn to work a gate, as well so pay attention to what I do and say" the star scale ordered then turn back to the gate, moving her hand out in front of her, Jasmine's armband glow and a screen of symbols and Rings appeared, she explained how to use the basic functions of the gate, for local travel, moving the symbols to we're she need them to go and how off world need permission from the Queen or a someone that can authorize it. She spoke some words in the Vaseterm language and the gate activated "so there you have it" she grind and walk on to the glowing Stone and vanished.

-

[Somewhere in the mountains far way]

Jasmine was waiting on the other side of the gate, the location was a wooded area that was lightly dusted with snow
-
Blue nodded as Jasmine explained the function of the gate, he did his best to memorize everything she said and showed him. When she disappeared through the gate, he hesitated just a moment and then stepped on it, vanishing through it and reappearing beside her.

He shivers, "Oh it's cold" he rubs his arm, walking around and watching himself leave footprints in the snow, a boyish grin on his face as he does so.

Jasmine shook her head with amusement at the young Royal " depending on, how good you are in remembering coordinates and we're you are, you should be able to teleport here on your own, using your wings, but that takes energy, that why the gate is best for casual travel" she explained.
The star scale pointed down a path "the cabin is that way, if you ever need any to help keep you warm, there stuff there, otherwise we can play in some snow in the Arena" she grind at Blue
-
Blue looked to where she pointed, then back to Jasmine, "Okay!" he says with a grin, his teeth chattering, "So where do we train? Here? I can awaken right now...but that always hurts, a lot, like someone ripping you apart from the inside out" he shudders
-
"you could, no humans come up this far, it's private property, that our people own, we pretty much have free range in this area, as long as we don't destroy the gate and preferably not the cabin" Jasmine rub the back of her head " there nothing I can do about the pain when you shift to your awaken form, I can only take care of you when you shift back, so the choice is yours to make.... but the more you use it, and learned the better prepared you will be when it comes to real combat" with that the star scale shifted to her true form, Jasmine towered as a black and silver Dragon, her scales shimmered with the signature Vaseterm marking, she also had two spiraling horns from her forehead

"you could, no humans come up this far, it's private property, that our people own, we pretty much have free range in this area, as long as we don't destroy the gate and preferably not the cabin" Jasmine rub the back of her head " there nothing I can do about the pain when you shift to your awaken form, I can only take care of you when you shift back, so the choice is yours to make.... but the more you use it, and learned the better prepared you will be when it comes to real combat" with that the star scale shifted to her true form, Jasmine towered as a black and silver Dragon, her scales shimmered with the signature Vaseterm marking, she also had two spiraling horns from her forehead

Blue nodded as she spoke, "Alright" he had started to walk away from the gate to shift when she had shifted first, "Whoa! Your true form is so cool!" he grins, "Guess I better shift too" he sighs, not looking forward to it at all.

Wandering a bit further away to a small clearing, Blue closes his eyes, scrunching his face up in anticipation as he knew what was going to come. He couldn't hold back the scream he let out as his tail shot out of himself, //Oh god that hurts! Hurry hurry! Just be done with it// he continued to scream as his secondary wings burst from his back, Blue hunched over seeming to stop his shifting for a moment as he panted.

He soon finished it though, standing at the tall and powerful form of the War Horse, Blue stuck his tongue out as he felt power coursing through him, he then put his helmet on and faced Jasmine, testing out each of his legs in this form, not seeing any need to rush this time around since it was for training and not an actual life or death matter. Blue swished his tail over the trees and tested all of his wings, "This form is so odd, to gain so many limbs so quickly" he says, more of an outloud thought.
-
Jasmine followed Blue to the clearing, she gave him plenty of room to shift, she Pinback her ears back from Blue screaming as he started to awaken, it always remind her of a tormented Nightmare, except their sound worse on took longer to shift to. She tilted her head with interest when Blue seem to stop in the middle of his transformation // what? is he in limbo?// She stood there and watched as the Royal finish shifting, she waited a bit then spoke up " I can only imagine, what that's like" sitting on her haunches Jasmine look up at the War Horse before her// he is rather impressive // she thought amused to herself. " Both Royal male and female awaken forms are very different from each other as well, male are much bigger and heavily armored compared to the female War Horse, this was because male's role with in there Clan, as Guardians "
-
Blue was admiring himself when Jasmine started to speak up about clans and awakened beings, he looked to the dragon and tipped his head to one side, crossing his arms. "I don't know anything about clans, but I did see Victoria awaken, it surprised me to see how tiny she was and she has two tails!" he says energetically.

Spreading out all four legs in a battle stance, Blue holds out his hand, spreading out his fingers to Jasmine, "Well should we get started? The longer I'm like this, the bigger toll it takes and I doubt this place has as many moons as Deluna" he smirks behind his helmet and begins to chant.

"alright Blue, show me what you got!" Jasmine said with excitement getting into a battle position as well, she shook her main rattling her spines running down her back. Chanting Jasmine pumped her wings sending a flurry of ice shards at the War Horse
-
Blue grinned behind his helmet as the ice shards came towards him, he'd already finished his chanting by the time she's sent off her attack and his wings were spread out. Beating his wings, he sent a heat wave at Jasmine, it burned away the snow near him and lit some trees on fire as it melted her ice and came straight for her.
-
Jasmine figure he would do something like that, she quickly chanted and sweep her tail across the ground sending a wave of water at the coming heat, so she could Bolt to the sky, she was big in her Dragon form but still not the size of a War Horse // hmhm males are so slow and there wings are always there weakness point // her slit eyes glisten with her intent, she began to chant making storm clouds form above, the star scale beat her Wings with her last words creating a downpour

Jasmine figure he would do something like that, she quickly chanted and sweep her tail across the ground sending a wave of water at the coming heat, so she could Bolt to the sky, she was big in her Dragon form but still not the size of a War Horse // hmhm males are so slow and there wings are always there weakness point // her slit eyes glisten with her intent, she began to chant making storm clouds form above, the star scale beat her Wings with her last words creating a downpour
-
Blue followed Jasmine as she moved, he noticed the storm clouds forming and almost felt bad as he began to mimic the chant Omen had done the first time they'd fought, raising his pointed fingers to her afterwards and grinning behind his helmet, "Bang" he says, blue lightning shooting down and striking her hard.

Jasmine eyes widen, // it's not possible!// she wasn't expecting the young Vaseterm to use one of Omen spells, the star scale let out a pain rawr as the lightning struck her, sending the Dragon crashing through the trees, and she hit the rain soaked ground. Jasmine scales we're smoking, " dam, that one hurt" she growled to herself and pushed herself out of the mud
-
Blue was getting a bit carried away now, the power getting to his head as he began to chant, focusing on something new, the rain started to freeze as it fell, into razor sharp blades of ice that came down towards Jasmine.
-
Jasmine could tell Blue was getting drunk with power "Blue! That enough!" She roared. Just so she could what's stand the War Horse attack, she only had one choice, it what Save her from Omen before, Jasmine's eyes burn like fire as she foce and entered the eclipse, seeping through her scales was a glowing light that form into crystals around her body, Jasmine was using her very moonlight, her own life foce to make armor, she inhaled a breath ready to unleash it if the young Vaseterm did not listen
-
Blue did exactly that, he didn't listen to her roar, //That's definitely a trap, I'm not that stupid// his power was growing out of control, fire ignited even in the rain, swirling around Blue in a dark haze. The War Horse put a hand to his spinning head, //Who am I fighting? That's right...Omen// he narrows his eyes, //No, Jasmine, we're training and I'm gonna win!// he puts his hands in front of himself and begins to chant.

// he can't control the power he has, it's playing with his mind, if he doesn't stop soon he could lose himself // Jasmine study the war horse before her // sorry Blue, but you leave me no choice// the star scale war paint light up as her Mane glow like moonlight,
she Unleashed a Silver beam from her maw at Blue, time seem to freeze around the beam pausing the water droplets of the rain that we're falling, the impact of beam caused an explosion when it hit it's Target
-
Blue had stopped chanting when she fired the beam, he watched as time seemed to freeze around him, his eyes wide until it hit him dead on. Blue was sent flying back from the explosion, sliding through the forest on his side, when he finally came to a stop, he coughed up silver blood, his helmet had shattered and he took shaky breaths as he lay there
-
Smoke rised from Jasmine maw as she was talking deep breaths, After firing her beam. // ...oh, crap// "Bl.. Blue!" She called with a raspy voice, she muttered a chant to make the rain stop and headed over to the War Horse, her body trembled with exhausting. Jasmine place a paw on the Royal " Blue, hang in there okay" she started to look over his wounds
-
Blue looked to Jasmine as she placed a paw on him, "S-sorry" he says, coughing after, he focuses on reverting back and does so painfully, letting out an agonized scream as he does. Soon he's back in his regular form, spewing up blood and losing it faster than normal from his injuries. He couldn't help but cry out from all the pain, laying on the ground and holding his stomach

Jasmine folded her ears back as Blue converted back to his regular form " shhhh, don't speak, Save your energy " she carefully picked up the young Vaseterm in her paws " this is partially my fault, I knew the risks and your taking the toll now" // I have to stop bleeding or he could bleed out // " Blue I'm going to try something" Jasmine gently pushed his hand away from his wound and lower her head and opened her maw, the dragon eyes burned like flames as she lightly braised making crystals form over the Royal wound, her eyes return to normal as she painted " ....that is fragments of my eclipse, it should stop your bleeding " she waddled on shaky hind legs to the cabin
-
Blue stayed quiet, as quiet as he could while in a world of pain. He grimaced when she'd moved his arms away from his stomach, hissing between clenched teeth, "Y-you should preserve your energy too" he says weakly. The sky above was dark with storm clouds, hiding most of the moon.
-
Splashing through the mud
Jasmine ignored Blue warning, she looked up at the sky and frowned that there was hardly any Moon, she knew her limits and knew she was very close, but a Royals life was at risk " I'll be fine Blue... I'm tougher then I look " she tried to reassure him with a toothy grin. Jasmine made a decision and headed to the gate instead, she lead Blue get me down on the stone Circle and made herself shift back to a human form, she activate the gate and teleported them back to the Palace. The star scale nearly collapsed with the lack of energy, but manage to keep it all together a little longer, she help Blue up and put a arm around him for support and she led him to the Infirmary " good thing there still a hole in the wall" she teased

Blue had his arm draped around Jasmine, he could barely put one foot in front of the other, blood fell from his mouth as his eyes hung low. He was too tired to speak, even when she teased him, his large wings dragging behind him.
-
Jasmine practically dragged Blue into the Infirmary, Suzano spotted them and signals for some help with the other nurses they took Blue and Jasmine to the sky room to treat their injuries, and let them recovery
-
Blue woke a couple days later, blinking tiredly around the sky room, it was later in the day, close to supper time. He sat up, stretching his arms over his head with a yawn and pulling his wings in slowly
-
Jasmine was gone already, and like the time before Blue clothes we're folding on the table clean and neat.

On the table next to Blue was pieces of paper with scrambles that was obviously done by a child, of flowers, and stick people, and one of them had Wings. There was sloppy writing of
'get well soon, Blue
- Love Ai'
On them, it look like someone had to help her spell it.

But besides that the room was empty

Blue stood up and started to dress in his regular attire, as he was putting his jacket on he noticed the pieces of paper, picking them up and looking through them, he couldn't help but smile. //That's so cute// he rolls them up, holding them in his left hand as he heads out and downstairs, //It's pretty late, would they be eating dinner now?// he shrugs, "I'll find 'em eventually" he starts heading towards the kitchen.
-
Qui, and Ai was in the kitchen a long with Jason and Ethan, they were at the table eating and taking
" Lady V, actually going to exiled him? It's about time if you ask me" Jason spoke bluntly
Qui poked at her food " it's only temporary, he a male After all and the other she has to speak with the other Royals... In cluding Blue, who was involved"
-
Blue stopped at the door when he heard them talking, //Exile someone?// he thinks about it for a bit, assuming it's probably Sokio. He walks into the kitchen, coming up behind Ai and scooping her up in his arms, "Hey missy, I got your little notes" he grins at her, then looking to the other three, "Who's being exiled?"

"Glue!!!" Ai squealed she hug the Royal.

Everyone at the table turn their attention to him and said "Blue"
Qui got up from her set "Blue are you alright?" She was concerned about him even though this was becoming routine.

Jason waved a fork in his hand with food on it "yaeh, Sokio might get the kick, but it has to go through the lines if he does or not"

Ethan poke at his food and spoke not looking up " I don't see why, Victoria can't just exile him now...he not a nice guy..."

Qui held one of her arms and push her lips "tell me about it, I think he mess with everyone but even though she the Queen and could do that, she does it like her family did, and the Royals must agree what to do with him...but I know some won't want to, with so few purebloods and Sokio a male meaning he has more freedom to do things "
-
Blue rubbed Ai's back as she hugged him, looking to Qui, "I'm fine, I just overdid it in training with Jasmine, I keep losing myself in my War Horse form, it's frustrating" he frowns a bit, then shakes his head.

"Sokio doesn't deserve to be here, he put my life at risk and threatened Qui, who knows who he'll endanger next? It could be anybody and I won't stand for it, if he wants to play his games, he can do it with Omen, not us" Blue says sternly, "I'll make sure Sokio leaves this place"
-
" it just takes time and practice but I know you will get it " Qui smiled reassuring to her mate
Qui nodded her head in agreement, she didn't like Sokio not many did her in the Palace, but the other Royals had a say in the matter to
"there going to have a trial with the other Royals to decide his fate and you will have to be there for it, even though Sokio a male he abuses his privileges "

" That putting it lightly, that guy's a jerk" Jason said then put the fork with food in his mouth

" The trials not for a few days, still " Ethan mumbled under his breath not happy ether

Blue sighs lightly, shaking his head, "Well we can worry about that when it comes to it..." he snorts, "If I were Victoria, I'd have thrown him out long ago, don't need people like that around" he says, refraining from using bad language with Ai hugging him.

"We should relax in the meantime, Sokio's the one who has to worry about being thrown out" He grins, starting off out the room with Ai.
-
" it more complicated than that" Qui sigh under her breath about Victoria

"your right though, he that one who in trouble, and he only know a life with a clan, but he should have thought about that " Qui said then followed Blue out, letting her brother and Ethan clean up the kitchen

Ai babbled at Blue
-
Blue shrugged at Qui and started talking back to Ai, whispering to her and trying to get her to mimic his words as he headed out to the garden.

Setting Ai down, Blue walked out a bit and shifted, pawing the ground with a hoof, "Come on Ai, let's see you shift" he starts prancing around, trying to encourage her to chase and mimic him.

Ai giggle at Blue, she reached up at first with her tiny hands to the Royal, but caught on to his coaxing and she shift to, with clumsy hooves she Prince the round mimicking Blue.

Qui shift to and followed along " she getting better at with each day" she smiled at the little phili try to bite Blue tail, Qui ears laid back " Blue do you think Omen will find out about her?" She looked to him with concern
-
Blue kept an eye on Ai as he pranced alongside Qui, so he didn't accidentally trample the young filly, he sighs lightly at her question, "We'd both be lying to each other if we were convinced he wouldn't find out" he responds quietly, waving his tail for Ai to try and grab as he prances ahead of her. "Knowing our luck? He already knows and is probably...none too happy" he leans his head to one side and presses his cheek to Qui's, "I'll do all I can to protect you both" he whispers.
-
Qui close her eyes, leaning against Blue, she knew what he said was true and felt the same way about Ai " I know you will Blue, and I will be beside you and help any way I can, your not alone anymore" she whispered gently
Ai stretched out her lips and finally got a hold of Blue tail, and was prancing try to pull him
-
Blue moved his head around her neck, so he was essentially hugging her in this form, "Yes but if it comes to it, you take Ai and you leave me, no matter what, your safety and hers come first and you know as well as anybody Omen will take advantages of weaknesses" his ears perk up as Ai gets his tail, "Oh noo, I've been captured and am being taken away!" he says dramatically, walking backwards carefully as Ai 'pulls' him along.

Qui welcome his embrace, but Blue words worried her, but she knew he was right Omen would just use her and Ai against her mate, and her and Ai who is far too young, couldn't do anything against the devil, but before she could reply back, Ai had grab Blue tail and was pulling him around, grinning with pride with the prize she just caught.
Qui chuckled and shook her head at the two Royals
-
Blue gave Qui a humorous look and chuckled, "Oh noo Ai, what are you gonna do with me? Surely I'm too big to fit in your room as a trophy?" right as Ai goes to answer him, releasing his tail, Blue spins around and gently knocks her over with his snout, "Now I've got myself a little prize!" he does his best to grin at the small filly as he's kneeled down, rump in the air
-
Ai squeal at Blue " No! No! " as she try to get up and way from him and giggling, she looked to Qui with a "help, please"
Qui was chuckling at the site " I'll save you Ai" she said sounding heroic, and took a hoof and pushed Blue derriere, that was sticking up.

It was starting to get dark, and the moon just coming out
-
Blue chuckled as Ai squealed but he didn't have the balance on his side as Qui pushed him with her hoof, he felt his hindlegs slip from under him and quickly rolled to his side to avoid squishing Ai, "Oh hey, that's no fair! Two against one! Whatever shall I do?" he rolls up, back onto his four legs, spreading out his large wings, "Guess I'll just have to catch both of you and teach you both a lesson!" he shouts playfully, stomping his hooves in place. Ai squeals and starts to clumsily run away, "No! No!!" she squeals as she flees

Qui playfully rears up " i like to see you try~" she taste and trotted at a quick pass keeping up with Ai as she was clumsily running, looking over her shoulder back at Blue the little filly squeals
-
Blue laughs, shaking his head and purposely stomps his hooves in a heavier sort of prance as he follows the two girls, gradually he picks up his pace, "I'm gonna catch you!" he shouts, his tone playfully as he keeps his wings spread out.
-
"oh no! Ai what are we going to do? Blue going to catch us! "Qui said dramatically and look over her shoulder and grind at the Royal

Ai squeal louder as Blue was gaining on her, her little fluff of a tail wiggling

Blue laughed, catching up to his mate and Ai, he reaches his head slowly down as he trots behind Ai and grabs her tail fluff between his teeth, "Got ya Ai!" he mumbles.
-
They continued to play until the moon was highest in the sky, deciding to sleep outside in their true forms. Since the night was warm and quiet now.

Blue's gaze turned to the moon as Qui and Ai slept beside him. //I have a feeling things are only going to get more hectic from here on out// he rests his head on the ground beside Qui's, //But whatever comes our way, we'll be ready for it// his ear flicks as he dozes off...

(The end...for now)
