Welcome to Gaia! ::

"you haven't listened to what I am telling you!" She said softly laying a hand on his arm, "Its not that they don't trust you, if they didn't trust you then you wouldn't be here plain and simple. Some things have to be kept secret in order for horrible terrible things to not happen. The order trust you!! They put you with THE top agent doesn't that show you something?" she asked standing infront of him.

"Does'nt that show you that they trust that you will be great and have so much potential?"

"Leon, stop!" Peng appeared beside Madeline. He wasn't sure if he should intervene, but though Madeline seemed to have been doing fine, he knew how reckless Leon could be. "Screaming and acting violent to others won't help you into anything. If you control yourself, Leon, you'll see that Madeline is doing what she can to protect you."

Peng's eyes softened. "I don't know anything about your parents. But I do know the Order. I know that it might not seem true at the time, but they are doing what is best for you and for the people. If letting you know what happened will threaten your family, why must you egg it on? Can't you just be content with knowing they're safe and sound and move on? Is it truly so important to know, at the expense of their lives? Leon, listen to me. You have potential to be something great. But if you keep dwelling on the past, you will evolve into nothing but destruction! Look at yourself, cornering a young woman who only wants to help you. Why do you keep alienating those that wish to help you?!" Peng balled his hands into fists. There was nothing more shameful, to him, than selfishness.

Nathan rubbed his eyes, dressed in a long-sleeved white shirt a bit too big for him and a pair of jeans with sandals. "Something... Smells really good," he said.

Leon was losing it, he could feel it. He wasn't suprised when peng appeared, he knew he was watching. He never changed, but his form kept blurring as if he was shifting a lot. "I... don't care. I don't care what the hell I am or could be! I DONT CARE ABOUT ANYTHING! I... I just want my family back! The order took them from me, and you are asking me to listen to them? You know what it is like to be alone peng! Are you really okay with letting them ruin lives because they want to? Everything could have been avoided if they didn't keep secrets from me! I'm dwelling on the past? MY FAMILY IS ALIVE AND YOU HID THEM FROM ME! That isn't my past! They're my family! I HATE YOU PENG! I HATE THE ORDER!" He shouted. Giving into the rage he exploded into a massive tiger, much larger than normal. He growled at madeline, but some part of him still couldn't bring himself to hurt her. Leon lunged at Peng, swiping but figuring he would pass through. He turned and dashed out of the room, roaring down the hallway. Occasionally he would ram into or swipe at a nearby person. Leon was on a complete rampage.

((I've lost all control over him... >.< Let me know if I overdo it. I am being mindful of the consequences.))

Peng obviously had him phase through, but as he turned around, he drew his sword. "Madeline," Peng said quietly, almost out of melancholy, "You did the right thing... But he's out of control. I apologize... I'll have to subdue him."

'I HATE YOU PENG-'

The words echoed in his mind, but he tightened the grip of his sword and disappeared once more.

But Madeline wasn't alone in the room. She would feel a gentle, warm, soothing hand on her shoulder. "Madeline," Nero said, filled with sincerity and worry, "I am so sorry that you got thrown into this. I hoped there would be enough human in Leon to overcome... Well, I'm sure you're aware. Perhaps I was wrong... I may have to destroy Leon, after all. For the sake of the innocent people he's harming."

One innocent employee was thrown against the wall, but before Leon could wreak more havoc, Peng aimed to slash at Leon's shoulder to cripple his running and stand in front of him, sword drawn. "I didn't know your parents were alive, Leon. Yes. I know what its like to be alone. But that isn't the Order's fault. It was my cousin, who murdered my family. After the Order warned my family she couldn't be trusted. They didn't listen, and in the end, they died. There are things I don't know, Leon. But I don't go hurting innocent people because I don't get my answers! You can hate me all you want. Everyone else already does. But I will NOT. Let you HARM. Innocent people. Don't take it personally, its merely business."

Nathan blushed and looked off to the side. "'S just... Clothing. No big deal."

"Clothing's no big deal, he says in the presence of a fashion designer." Luca joked, setting the table.

Madeleine froze feeling and hearing Nero, this was her worst fear that Leon would be destroyed. She knew there was good in him she just knew it!
(if she can see him than she faces him) she kneeled on both knees her head bowed in reverance, "please sir...dont kill him. I know he is troubled and is running wild but I beg you.....give me some more time. I know there is good in him and that he can be controlled......he didn't harm me he even restrained himself from doing so....does that not show this isn't what he wants either? Please sir as the student I have been to the order let him live I believe there is still hope" she said softly. Tears of compassion running down her face.
She understood Leon's feelings she prayed that could help her reach him.

"You and Peng both, I don't understand your faith in him... But its a promising scene." Nero closed his eyes and took a deep breath. "One final chance. Go on and speak to him. Tell him everything, and if he can overcome it, we will try to do what we can. But if he loses himself any more than he already has... I fear the worst. I want there to be a room with just you and Leon together. Tell him, like only a person who shares his pain can. I'll keep Peng and a few others to surround the room, for your protection and others." Nero opened his crystal blue eyes, offering Madeline a hand to stand if she'd like. "This is the only thing we haven't tried... I only pray that it works. Maybe he's stronger. If he can just understand that we're trying to help him..."

Peng crouched down a little. "I don't KNOW anything about your parents, Leon. Except that as I worked with them, they were kind, hard-working people that lived for the good of all above themselves and would CRINGE at your behavior! What you are doing is not only roughe-ish, but mad! All because you think you're so tortured and alone. LOOK AROUND YOU!"

The person Leon hit was slowly trying to get up, holding her bleeding arm. Another person from the Order helped her up a bit, tears in his eyes. 'We have to get that looked at, you sure you're alright?' 'Yes, yes I'm okay,' replied the stumbling woman. Others moved to avoid the hallway they were in, trying to not get hit in the crossfire.

"Remember Quyen? Try and remember! She cared about you a lot. Madeline, she understands you more than anyone. Nero and Narco had been more than patient, and what about me?" Peng asked. "Haven't I bent over backwards enough, saving your LIFE several times, all because of your poor decisions and wild behavior? The Order has acted more as a family towards you than you care to realize! No, you didn't grow up with your mother and father. But you DID grow up with a family, and for what its worth, I think your obsession with knowing, at the expense of the lives of others, sickens me. I'm more than disappointed. I'm finding it harder to see why I've fought so hard to protect you in the first place.If it was because I've felt a kindred spirit, than I was foolish and blind. Even as a spirit alone, I would never harm innocent people. At any cost."

Nathan blinked, his face flushed from the contact, and he felt embarrassed. When Jin let him go finally, proclaiming food, he sat with Luca and Jin at the table.

Luca giggled; the sight of Jin loving on Nathan and Nathan's confused and embarrassed face was adorable. Aw, these boys. He adored them both. "Here you are~" Luca singsonged as he set plates down in front of them both.

Jin sat down eating the food happily with a coo. He felt so good with all this adoration around him, powerful it was almost a warm feeling all over his body. He couldn't be happier right now actually this is where he belonged there was no way he was ever giving up such a huge source of power.
