*Trilla didn't seem to answer, though already she was starting to feel a little sleepy. Turning her face towards Thanatos' hair, Trilla would place her head onto his shoulder, like a pillow. She'd blink often and her breathing was at a slower pace. Thanatos was warm and that was nice, it made him more comfortable to be leaned against. A bonus to being seated on the bed, is that the covers under Thanatos were being warmed up by body heat aswell. A few more minutes perhaps, and then Trilla would be ready to tuck in*
Trilla: ........

Than felt like he could fall asleep here as well, but it wasn't the right time for him to do so. His will power would keep him from sleeping. While waiting for sleep to take hold of her, Than tilted his head over and kissed Trilla on her cheek as a gesture of affection, hoping to calm her down yet more. He didn't feel the urge to say anything he hadn't already.

*A minute passes, then another, and another... each time Trilla's eyes were becoming heavier. Finally Thanatos would hear a yawn from the child, so she'd likely be out in another minute or two. Her eyes started to slam shut, then open again.. trying to hang on to what ever awakeness she had. It was a loosing battle, and within another couple of minutes, she was out like a light*
Trilla: =.= | --.-- | =.= | --.-- | z Z z Z z...
*Eecheb was now around level seventy-eight, just a few more floors before he discovered he could go no further*

Than just smiled when Trilla dozed off once and for all, whispering just before she went out: "Sweet dreams, imoto." Using his hand, he pulled the covers back a bit and gently laid Trilla back to her bed, her head to her pillow. Once she was set down, Than pulled her covers over her, gave two small pats on her back, and quietly left the room. As he left, a soft yawn escaped him.
When Eecheb got to the starway from level 70 to 69, he would find a rather indestructable wall blocking the stairs.
As the creature started to slip off, Slayer saw no reason for Micha to be confined here. It would be best for the boy to return to his room for now. "Pardon me, Lord Micha, but I believe it would be best if you returned to your room for now. I am sure you will be able to get anywhere else by accessing Zio from the wall panel in your room. Now, Zio, please transport Lord Micha back to his room for the time being." While waiting for the command to execute, Slayer bowed politely to Micha once more, after which the boy would find himself back at his bedside, moments after Than left.

*Finally arriving at the wall, Eecheb became confused. This thing wasn't there before. He hadn't been paying attention when Mastema had called for a blocking off of level seventy, as he was currently engaged with his own problems at the time. Now however he was angry! The elevator was broken, and there was a wall in his way... just great. The boy's immediate reaction to this road block was to give t he wall a sturdy punch, reguarless of what would or wouldn't happen next*
Eecheb: scream Raah!
*It seems that in this case, Micha wasn't even really given the option of going elsewhere. It was simply to his room until things had gone back to normal. Upon arrival back to his room, Micha would look around briefly. Trilla would be noted, as would the absense of Eecheb. Well... any way you looked at it, he only had three choices; sleep, visit the mind again, or visit Mastema and Nana one floor above. Free to do as he pleased? Ya sure... It had been a fine conference, Trilla was away from Tyrsais now, the children were all confined within a smaller safety area... the only one left was Eecheb, still down at the wall. So it was inevitable... Micha didn't feel much like walking, so sleep it would be*
Micha: . . .
Trilla: z Z z Z z...

With his siblings taken care of, and the miniature intrusion being taken care of, Than decided to focus on planning what it was he was going to do about everything that had happened. He knew none of the citadel plans brought up would be put back by his absence; Proto and Mastema both knew the details of anything he'd come up with. For now, he would head back down to his room on level 77 in order to research any information he would need. "Hmm.... Zio, open the elevator doors on this floor." There was no need to waste time; there was no elevator, so he could go down at his own speed. When the elevator doors opened, Than jumped right into the shaft without hesitance. He headed for level 77 with increasing speed. Hopefully he'd thought ahead about how he would stop.
Mastema would suddenly shift positions on the bed. He actually turned toward Nana, lifted one of his legs onto the bed, bending it at the knee, and then embraced Nana more fully. No longer was she leaning on his side, now she was on his front. It was a more comfortable position, and it could only be assumed that Mastema did it out of affection.

*His tail whipping back and forth, Eecheb was needless to say angry. By now he had turned around and was now semi jogging back the way he came. Hopefully not to take a strip off of someone, that would be ill advised. As far as Eecheb knew, Trilla and Micha were elsewhere so he might just bypass the room without noticing them*
Eecheb: stressed
*Nana would wrap her arms around Mastema's back, and snuggled warmly to his chest. Her cheeks were blushed lightly, and her eyes were closed. It only added more to her sense of security, and that made her happy*

There was some chance that, if Eecheb continued to be audible, he would encounter Thanatos on the way. Speaking of the rapidly descending boy, Thanatos was just passing level 85 and 84 when he implemented his 'brakes.' Thanatos thrusted both his right arm and right leg into the wall via his shadow abilities. Grabbing to the rather surreal 'substance,' Than quickly decelerated and finally came to a halt just one floor above his intended stop. "Aww.... so close to a perfect stop. -.-" Getting over the mild disappointment, Than disembarked the elevator shaft at floor 77.

*Chances were, Eecheb was on level seventy-six right now, so he'd likely run into Thanatos rather quickly. Who knew, perhaps Thanatos would hear Eecheb as he approched his floor. The boy's wings were twitching unhappily, along with the rest of him. His tail was now moving in more of a rhythem as he made his way along. Eecheb was displeased to be confined again, and after Mastema had said he and the others were free to go and do what they pleased, to put up a wall was to him... a lie. If he'd been thinking clearly, then yes.... he probably would have called upon Zio to teleport him*
Eecheb: stressed

Than was halfway down the hall when he heard a series of angry grunts and stomping. It didn't take long for Eecheb to come into view. Than was curious as to why the child seemed so flustered, at least for a moment. Then it came to him. Eecheb had left the room no doubt expecting to go somewhere, and just a few floors below his access had been cut off. No wonder his little brother was flustered.
^^;;
"Hoi, Eecheb, if you want to go outside I can get you there." The voice would be quite loud and would probably cut Eecheb off in his own anger so suddenly that the boy would take a moment to register what Than just said.

Eecheb: stressed | .___. Huh?
*All Eecheb heard was "want to go outside I can get you there", before he had come to a halt. Blinking for a moment, Eecheb finally caught sight of Thanatos farther down the hall. Eecheb was still tense from his anger a moment or two before, that much would still be visible*

Than greeted his brother with a smile, approaching him and standing a few feet away.
^_^
"I'll bet you went down to level 70 and found it blocked off. That's to keep whatever's in the tower from getting up too far, but you can still get out using Zio's teleportation system. So, that's how you can get outside." The explanation was sincere with no scorn for Eecheb having not thought of it himself.

Eecheb: o.o | Huh? What thing?
*Again, Eecheb had been dealing with something all his own at the time, and hadn't been paying attention to things durring the last few minutes of the conference. The fact that the large shadow had even been on the tower at that point, he hadn't realised. What he did notice is when Mastema said they could go, but for him that was a plus. Not because he could do what he liked, but because what was bothering him had lessoned after leaving the room*

Than chuckled; even he found Eecheb's obliviousness to be amusing at times. "That thing you and Trilla saw back in that building a while ago; it appeared when you were with Tyr-san. Don't worry, it isn't dangerous; we're just keeping it from getting to places where it could cause trouble. you can get past the wall by using the teleportation system to go straight to the bottom of the tower." Eecheb had seen the creature before, and Than was using a memory he was sure Eecheb would recall.

Eecheb: e__e | Hnnm... As long as it isn't out there... Thanks!
*As long as the creature remained inside the tower and away from him, Eecheb didn't mind it. Being reminded of Zio, the boy had a plan and a way to get out. The whole while, his tail swayed back and forth, as his wings re-folded to his back. After his note of appriciation to0 Thanatos, Eecheb took off again, down stairs towards the walled off level. Once he was a floor or two down, he would request Zio's assistance*
Eecheb: Uh... Zio? Can you put me downstairs at the front door?
*After a few seconds the boy would be teleported to the main floor by Zio. He was running along and continued that pace, as soon as he was there. With the front door in sight, the boy made his way outside. Both Alpha and Omega would probably catch sight of the boy, as he looked around briefly, then tore off to the southern area of the citadel. Oh what fun~! There were heavy things there to test his strength, and the gym aswell. Not to mention if he got bored, Sho lived in the south tower so he could always visit too. it seemed like things were coming together, and with his freedom again Eecheb was all to pleased*
Eecheb: xd heart
