Palace of the Immortals

He picked the ice off the window holding it between his thumb and finger staring at his multiple reflections in its incredibly delicate body, it was amazing he could hold such a thing without it snapping in his cold hands. It was then that his rage washed away from him in a moment his fingers closing over the ice snapping it and sending its tiny shards down to the stones they stood upon. It took him a moment to realize the feeling had been Hiroko's doing, she had somehow sensed his ire and banished it. His brow nit for this was something none could do before, the band she wore around her wrist that connected her to him had more power then he had first recognized and this bothered him. Turning away from Night he lent lightly against the wall cradling his chin between his fingers his eyes staring at the wall blandly, oddly he was facing directly towards the mortal man known as Douglas "Hungry..." he grinned the thought of the experiment sent his evil mind reeling with possibilities "...so very hungry"

((Hiroko is going to end up going to have to find a way to feed Keeper isn't she?))

The taller man would bow his head in greeting at her approach, while the gentle smile remained on his face. "We've been. Luckily enough I keep multiple homes so I was not put out on the street after a unpleasant event."

The child would stop and sway forward under the weight of the moving cloth around him. After catching himself he would turn his eye up to Hiroko. He would look at the teddy bear for a moment and then to her as she extended her arms towards him. After a moment he would slip his hand free from the taller man's. Gently he would take the each of the teddy bear's arms in a hand and open them in a similar fashion to Hiroko. Finally, he would close his single eye in a way that gave the impression he was smiling.

Hiroko laughed and hugged the teddy bear, and gave it a kiss on the cheek.
"You tell the little one that hug and kiss was for him. Don't feel special Mr. Bear." She told the bear sternly and then blew a kiss at the little one, then stood up and looked up at Hakkai.
"For that I am glad Hakkai-Sama. You know this place can be your home too, if you so wish it." she told her good friend smiling. "Do come in! I can't wait to show you the place!" She said, hopping up and down. "And you have to meet my children." she said, pausing, looking at Hakkai in shock. "Oh my...You've not even met Trinamarhai yet in her little life. And my new adopted son. Wow. It's been so long." She said, shaking her head. "We have much time to make up for. Come!" She urged them, hopping from one foot to the other.

Rose Kurokota

[{ Might as well get a few posts in for tonight. Lol. }]


Rose walked through the door, and knocked on it as she walked in. "Hiroko? I'm here, where are you, I want my hug." She said with a laugh. She finally shut the door behind her and leaned against the wall next to the door. "Such a nice place... Damn. I'm sorta jelious." Rose said, with a slight laugh.

[{ Hakkai! Holy crap man. I haven't seen you in two years. How have you been?
If you can't remember me,
I'm Rose Ashton. }]

Hiroko met Rose at the door, and then smiled. Hakkai and Little Hakkai behind her. She hugged her sister and kissed her cheek.
"Sis! Have you looked around?" she asked, tilting her head, grinning. "Do you like it?"

A low growl grew from his throat as he sensed night, his conversation stopping in a moment as he stood. "I'm afraid i have business to attend to, I will be seeing you both later" he remarked giving the girl an attempt at a warm smile as he turned stepping out of the room and shutting the door softly behind him.

He had forgotten night would be here, his presence irritated him, while he was kept back by the noose just as he was kept back by the veil night had nothing stopping him. Walking threw the shadows cast upon him by the window dim window light he quickly left the small family and the new comer behind his hand hooked into his belt. Finding the small shade that represented night he stepped up behind him "do you approve of my creation" he questioned only a hint of rage hidden behind his masking voice "building this marvel was no easy task, and even when it landed the new world put many things in it that even I am not aware of"

((sorry about the delay. Have fun at work.))

Night turned and looked up at the Keeper with genuine surprise. "Why hello there, Son," he said softly, "I didn't expect to see you again for a long time, much less here." He chuckled lightly and placed his hands on his hips. "Yes, actually. I approve very much. I like it. I could feel the traces of your power in the stonework but I thought that was just from the move," he said. "I suppose with all the wards up now and with the noose and veil working on you, you're very weak in your humaniod form now. I suppose that's for the best, atleast now I can sleep easy without worrying about you blasting me to bits when I'm not looking." He shrugged lightly and smiled behind his mask, "Maybe now, with a human body as your host, you can feel more than just hatred and anger. Even Hades found love."

He tisked his hands in his belt loops he stared out the window his eyes narrowing slightly "When this place landed something entered its stony body...I fear it has life of its own now" his eyes shifted glaring down at his father, even in this form his eyes still held a small part of the keeper in them. "Hades was not a being created simply to hate, he was just a fool who chose to do so." he felt a trickle of rage slide threw him as the dumb mumblings of bane inside his head started once again for but a moment, the window before him began to take on the smallest of icy crystals "Love cannot be in my nature, it would destroy the balance" his brow rose then he growled deeply "Dont engage in such things Night when I am standing right next to you, i am not so weak that I cant pick up on what your doing" he said referring to Hiroko

"Ah, I see.. That would explain a lot," he said quietly. "Yeah but Hade's was still a sour old puss. But he found a beautiful woman, kidnapped her, made her eat pomagranetes and cursed her to stay with him always... If you believe the tales. I wasn't there but I think he got hungry for a hot chick and went partying," he said absently, shrugging. "Got drunk, married a drunk goddess in a Vegas wedding then took her back to his place where she ate something cause she was hungry. End of story." He chuckled lightly and shook his head, looking around afterwords to make sure no skeletons were going to pop up and Smite him. After a minute, he sighed, "Anyways... Love is not one of those things that is either good or bad. You've seen it, of course, over the years and years. Good people fall in love with bad people. Bad people fall in love with bad people. So on. It just happens. Which means even you could get me grandbabies one day, if I choose to stay around til then," he muttered that last part. Then he laughed a little at the Keeper's final words, "Err.. I was hoping you'd not notice. I exist everywhere the shadows are. I multi-task." (( xD HAH )) He shook his head and turned. "I need to rest. Stay peaceful, Son," he said before vanishing and reappearing outside the room on the second floor at the end of the hall of the north wing. He placed his imprint on the egg, which began to glow as black as night's shadows, then he went inside and curled up on the bed. This form he'd taken was starting to become more real, more human but it kept his powers. Soon he'd be completely detached from the night if he kept forming, which he knew he would. There had to be a balance.. and Light had Long ago became this solar system's sun. There was no place for Night anymore and the balance was in danger.

The child would move the teddy bear's arms to hug her as well. After, while she spoke, he would place the teddy bear on its feet before letting it go. Through some sort of power, the bear would seem to stand of its own accord while the child straightened. While the child watched, the teddy bear would nod in acknowledgment of what Hiroko said before starting to walk down the path. The child would turn his gaze to the taller man who would smile and nod at the child. Finally, the child would look at Hiroko and close his eye happily once more before following after the bear.

After nodding towards the child, the taller man would turn his gaze back to Hiroko and reply, "I appreciate the offer and may take you up and indeed it would seem I have unfortunately not been around for a lot of things. However being their for such things could have caused a lot more trouble in times of happiness." Then, with a slightly larger smile, he would say, "It would be nice to see the place. It would seem that the rest of our company has already made up their minds to do some exploring of there own.

The shadowy figure from earlier had stopped when the others did and continued moving once the child started to move again.

[Forgotten Shilo Rose]

Rose Kurokota

She pushed off the wall and hugged and kissed Hiroko's cheek back. "Im jelious. My inn wasn't as beautiful as this." Rose said, smiling. Rose's eyes made contact to the man who was behind Hiroko. Who was he and why did he look familiar?

--L--O--V--E--R--S----F--O--R--E--V--E-R--

My family nearily dead, the ones I live for are my husband, Seth Kurokota, and my children. Our lives aren't quite normal. However, we work like a team.

To Seth Kurokota

[Willowmeana]

Hiroko smiled and nodded.
"Come, I'll be happy to show you around." she gestured, her eyes flashing with excitement, watching the Shadow curiously. She laughed. "you're still as mysterious as ever Hakkai-Sama."

[Hakkais_Truth]

The child would make his way to the door while following after the animated teddy bear in front of him while the taller man walked with Hiroko and responded, "I've learned that mystery is an amazing force in this world and many others."

Upon reaching the doorway, the child and bear would look up at the large doors. Then with an opening motion from the child's arms, the doors would swing open gently while the child and bear moved through them and past the woman standing on the other side.

The taller man would follow the child in with Hiroko. As Hiroko moved forward and hugged the young woman, he would come to a halt. As she looked at him, he would give a kind smile and tilt his head in greeting while saying, "Evening Madam."

(("Yeah, I found it a bit hard to enter the mansion upon returning some time back. And yes, your name rings a bell. How have you been?" ))

[Forgotten Shilo Rose]

Rose Kurokota

Rose nodded. She smiled but gasped a little. "Hello Hakkai. Been a while." Rose said, giving a slight head bow towards him.

[{ I've been alright.
You? }]

[Hakkais_Truth]

The young child would continue to move forward after the teddy bear which had begun to skip further down the entrance way.

The man would turn his head to look after him before turning his attention back to Rose. With a kind smile, he would reply, "Indeed it has. I found some wished to deny me further access to the mansion."

(("I've been alright. Just dealing with being an adult now that I've graduated college." ))

[The Grim Armorer]

he chuckled deeply as night left his eyes closing grinning around his words "well then father perhaps ill just drug Hiroko then hmm?" he asked touching a clawed finger to his lips "ah yes i know just the drug, and then when she is all drugged and deep in sleep i shall drag her soul to the underworld and she will love me for ever and ever" Laughing outright knowing it would dig into his fathers nerves, for it was something the keeper would do just to exact pain. Turning he walked down the hall, his footsteps so light it seemed he simply drifted towards the sent he was following the growing hunter in him slowly igniting into a need.

(I should say so...you wouldn't be opposed to keeping a small harvest of humans would you? Ooo rose, i approve this means i can bring in Simon at some point)

[Forgotten Shilo Rose]

Rose Kurokota

Rose nodded. "I can see that. I never understood you when I was younger. Not once. Haha. Doesn't matter now though." Rose said, smiling. Rose brushed her hair behind her ears and smiled. "I see you have a child of your own, congratuations."

[{ Hahaha. Everyone on here I know is older than me and goes to college. Lmao }]

"So now you understand me?" the taller man would ask with a smile before turning his gaze to the child and calling, "Hakkai, please wait there."

As the request floated down the hallway, the teddy bear would plop down on the rug with the child following suit a moment afterward.

The taller man would turn his gaze back to Rose and give a soft laugh while saying, "He is not exactly my child."

(("Now I'm out of college though. For now at least." ))
