The Royal Gardens and Courtyards

Akito gave a small bow before straightening. "I am Akito. I'm also new here." Akito looked around, still searching for the tune, but when she didn't hear it, she turned back to Leon. "It's nice and peaceful here. It's a good place to get away from the wars and fighting for a change. And to rest in peace without being bugged," she added, smiling.

Ritska took the instrument from him, looking it over curiously. Only a few months ago, she might have considered stealing it, but one look at his face and she knew how much it meant to him. At his words, she nods, glancing to him. "I've seen dragons before, they have them here too." She explains, then smiles, handing it back. "Cool. Anyways, I'm Ritska. What's your name?" She asks.

(bows to Akito) It is an honor to meet you Akito... Yes this place seems like the perfect place to forget my troubles that seem to haunt me wherever I go... (looks away shying from her steel eyes) Forgive me I'm just not used to such... (looks back) Beauty... (looks away)
(OOC:Sorry won't happen again promise.)

She blinked a few times, trying to process what he just said. And when she did a few seconds later, she blushed a little. No one had said anything about her physical being before, so it took her by surprise. Just a little... or maybe a lot. She spoke in a dumbfounded tone, the surprise clear on her face. "R-really? Why... thank you. No one has ever said that to me before." She searched for something else to say, and after a moment she said in practically a whisper, "And you look handsome looking all shy like that."

(He heard her but he didn't want too embaress her so he tried something different) Um... I was wondering if you wouldn't mind much... Um... would you like to some with me too the bar? You see I find the darkness of the place so mesmerising, and I would very much like too share this experiance with you...

Her steel hues suddenly lit up. "Sure. Race you there!" The words were not completely out of her mouth as she turned toward where the bar lay and transformed into a four foot black wolf. Giving an excited yip, she loped off in the direction of the bar. "Come on, slowpoke!" she called happily out telepathically as she sped off down the path. However, she took the long way, deliberately letting him win.

{{OOC: We'll take this up at the bar where we left off then? I made it so it make sense seeing as you obviously won. ^^}}

(SURPRISED AT HER RANDOMNESS IT TOOK HIM A LITTLE LONGER TOO GET OVER TOO THE BAR BUT STILL GOT THERE BEFORE HER AND STARTED TOO DRINK)

(OOC: Thanks you could've won but that's ok)  

[Andre The Fox]

Andre looked at her and then carefully took back his ocarina when she had finished with it. He frowned a bit at her seemingly low interest in the item, but he didn't care much. He loved it, so he cherished it, and he really didn't expect anyone else to feel the same. "Dragons here too?" He asked her curiously. "That's awesome." He stared up at the sky again with a smile. "Oh! My name is Andre." He then replied to her inquiry about his name when he realized he had spaced it. "Andre Cronas Arashi."

A small black fox found it's way outside the door, landing on it's front paws after having turned the nob. Sniffing the air, it couldn't help but bring a smile to the foxes lips. Evian was pleased, this was perfect. Getting rather distracted by the smell of water, she darted off to the koi pond, noticing some other animals around there, peering in. The dark eyes widened a bit at the size of the koi in the pond, fluffy tail twitching a couple of times before she straightened up a bit, ears twitching at the wonderful sound of the wind blowing through leaves. Ahh..... Thats much better.

Her beautiful black fur rippled and became that of a kitsune. Leaving the side of the koi pond, she headed off amongst the bamboo, sniffing the air to get an idea of what was around. Her aqua eyes glanced around, wondering what she would find further in. It was obvious there was something there, there was the faintest smell of flowers upon the wind.

It did take a little while, but she found the steps, a faint grin on her lips as she felt that warmth in her skin as she adjusted her form in the slightest so that she was telekinetic, lifting herself up. She stayed lower towards the ground, fox ears twitching as her tails (yes, tails) almost seemed to wag. Landing lightly at the top of the many stairs, she stood a bit taller, looking at the sea of beauty in front of her. She had never seen so many flowers in such a wide variety in one space, ever. She ended up standing there for a good five minutes just staring at the top of the stairs, her form slipping as she wasn't paying attention to it. Snapping out of it, she reverted back to her preferred form, adjusting the skin tone again so it was just almost asian. Her dress made her frown and so it became a bit more colorful, suddenly becoming a rich darker blue. She began to explore just a bit, but she was certainly taking her time. Evian, it was the best idea you could have had to come here...  

[ShadowLadyRaven]

There was a loud BANG sort of sound as a girl appeared into view, the quiet of the forest disturbed as a few birds flew out of surprise. Breaking into a run, Evian panted as she slowed down to a halt behind a tree, sinking down to her knee's with a heavy sigh. Oi...... She needed to remember to note take Draal so lightly when it came to the assignments he occasionally sent her. Odd jobs were nice, but not when they could get extremely tricky. Looking at the rips in her top, she sighed heavily and rose up, sheathing her dagger with a crack of her neck. Ok, note to self, make sure Draal gives you all the details about the next job.

With that, she lowered her face mask, her form immediately changing to a new one. Looking over herself, she smirked in satisfaction, now beginning to tie up her long hair before it could cause any problems.

Now looking to her surroundings, she frowned a little, her normally bouncy mood gone for the moment. "How long has it been since someone's been here?" She murmured to no one, maybe it was just the wind. With that she began to wander through the trees, down the various paths until she reached the bamboo forest. Winding her way through, she still could sense no movement. Grimacing, she turned into a small black fox and began to run down the path towards the mansion, narrowing her eyes as she went. She had to know. Where was everyone?
