Morph sprinted thought the tree's towards the mansion. He recognized the area as part of the same route he used when he was trying to find his way back home as a kit and couldn't help but chuckle wryly at the fact that he was lost once again, but in an entirely different way. Hia guitar bounced slightly on his back and but he ignored it and kept running, moving faster than he really ever had before. Coming up on the mansion, he skidded to a halt in front of the guard, not really sure if he should keep going or ask before entering, unsure of his standing in the mansion. The he figured he would get lot anyways so he decided to ask. "Excuse me, I'd really like to speak to my mother, or father, or anybody who could tell me what's going on...Please."

The guard eyed up the rather panicked kitten. He could tell quite easily who his parents were, after all Persy and Kierans litter were the first in the mansion. So the guard nodded softly, letting the cat through. "Be quick about it, if possible." he said quietly. "I'm not entierly sure if you're meant to be in here anymore. You remember where you're going, right?" he then asked. He thought the least he could do was be helpful, the kitten certianly seemed to be in a rush and with all the rumours going around about what had happened to Kieran and Persy he couldn't help but feel that it was very unfair on the kitten not to know.

Morphs mind slowed down a bit. What did the guard mean? Was it because he was away for so long? Were his parents mad at him? Were things really that bad? The panic in his eyes became mixed with a little pain as he tried to remember his way around the mansion. “Um… sort of.” gah, it has been too long… Morph frowned and swallowed, his eyes hot. “I don’t know if you’d know, but… well, would I be walking in on anything I shouldn’t?” Morph’s brow creased with worry as doubts about crashing into the mansion like this chased him around his head.

The guard shook his head. "I seriously doubt it kid. Kieran hasn't been around the mansion in quite a while. There are quite a few rumours as to why but I'm not going to elaberate. I'll let you know the truth. I'm going to admit that I havn't seen Persephone in a while either. But I know she's alright, you can sometimes see her in the window. So i don't think you'll be walking in on anything. Just don't get too freaked out alright?" he said sadly. "Just take a deep breath and jump in. It will be easier that way"

Morph made a little bow. "Thank you very much." Moving around the guard, he stepped into the mansion. Looking around slowly, he figured he'd better trust his instincts and picked the first door that felt like it should be the rigth choice. Opening it up on a hallway, he walked slowly, heart pounding in his chest. Finding nothing familiar, he walked to the end of thehallway, and out into another one. bloody hell… I’m lost. Looking left and right, he slumped down against the wall in the middle of the hallway and called out. “Mom?... It’s me, Morpheus… Can… can we talk?” His throat tightened as he pulled his legs against his chest. [[i hope i'm not making up parts of the building that aren't there >>]]

Persy lay in her room, her ears pricking, listening for Nyx to come back. She had let Nyx go wander outside for a bit, which she knew meant that she had gone to the abandoned dance studio. Nyx thought that it was her little secret but Persy knew. She just knew that it was safe and that Nyx needed her secret. But Persy would still listen carefully so she could hear her practice. Persys ears pricked as she heard someone else...a very familiar voice. It was her son. She instantly got up and ran to the area where the sound was coming from to see her son sittng in the corridor. The now thin, very pale cat stared for a second, not entirely sure what she was seeing. "Morpheus?" she asked after a second. Her son had grown so much since she had seen him last.

“Mom?...MOM!” Morph cried, ducking out of the strap of his guitar case and running to her, hugging her tightly and burying his face in her chest. “I’m sorry! I’m sorry for disappearing, and not being here and… and… I’m sorry…” Hot tears escaped his closed eyes as his fear and anxiety and panic crashed down on him. Life had caught up with him, or he with life, and he held tight to his mother, hoping… hoping some good could come out of all of this, whatever it was. Attempting a few steadying breaths, he stepped back a little and looked up at her. “I just… I want to know what’s happened… so I can help…” he drooped a little, waiting for her to speak.

Persy hugged her son tightly, soft tears falling down her face. It had been so long since she had seen her little boy, infact so long that he didn't seem like a little boy anymore. She hugged him tighter. "Morpheus I missed you so much!" she said softly. She rubbed his head softly, comforting him. "Don't worry about that. You're here now and thats all that matters." She smiled as she said this, which was a big deal in her current situation. She hadn't eaten in days and hadn't smiled in weeks. As they broke from their embrace she smiled weakly again. "Shall we talk at home?" she said, extending her hand to him, hoping they could walk hand in hand to the house, like they did when he was a baby.

Morph rubbed his head into her hand, eyes closed with a sad smile on his face. “I missed you too Mom… and so much more than I realized now that I’m seeing you again.” Morph looked up at her smile and his own smile grew a little more in response. “I’d like that.” He said quietly. “I have to go get my guitar though.” He bobbed his head a little apologetically, and grinned at her. He hurried back up the hallway and picked up his guitar, jogging back to his mother and taking her offered hand in his own. He paused a little at this small touch, the feeling of bittersweet nostalgia flitting though his heart. He smiled up at her again. “There’s so much I want to tell you, now that I think about it.”

Persy watched as her son came back to her and smiled softly again. It was a weak smile, for the older cat was not in the best of health. Still she couldn't help but cheer up when she got to see her son again, after so long. She looked down at him "Well you have all the time in the world to tell me sweetheart." she said happily. She didn't want to have to tell him about everything horrible that had been happening in the family lately. It would be difficult to tell him but she knew as his son he really deserved to know what was going on, to know the truth. What she wasn't sure of was whether it was her place to tell him about Kierans attempted suicide.

Morph leaned gently against her as they walked, breathing in her familiar scent. Looking back at his mother, he noticed that she seemed tired and rather drawn. A little unhappiness eked back in his heart for her as he remembered why he had run here in the first place. He nuzzled against her, eyes closed a little sadly. “Love you…” He didn’t know what he wanted to do anymore. He wanted to know, but he wanted her to feel better, and tell her so many things, and catch up on all they had missed and be held and have a mother again. His throat constricted again and he chewed the inside of his lip a little.

Persy smiled as she walked with Morph. It was nice to be with her son again, after so long. She couldn't help but feel so guity that so many of her children had left her because of lack of attention to them. She knew that, in truth, Nyx really did need as much care as she got but all the same, she hadn't given her quite as much attention then maybe her other other children would have felt more loved and have stayed with her. She rubbed his head softly again. "I love you too. I missed you my darling." she said warmly as they finally got into the house. It was cleaner then normal, it was obvious the female had spent a lot of her time cleaning in, to distract herself.

Morph set his guitar down and hugged his mother again. “Just because I have a few years to make up for.” The cuddly child in his mind was coming to the forefront of his mind for many reasons. For one, he missed her dearly and was glad to be home. The other reason though was this: his mind was a mess, questions and worries piled up in a huge jumble, and he had no idea how to start, nor did he want to find out if his father really had… done that, but he knew Mir would say that if he didn’t find out, the pain of not knowing would be much worse. Confidence in the truth of the situation, she’d say, that is the only way we can move forward.

Persy smiled, hugging him tightly. After they broke away they sat down at the small table. She descided that she should make sure to keep the conversation flowing. Sure she was run down, generally upset and malnurished but that didn't mean that she couldn't have lots of fun with her child whom she hadn't seen in quite some time. She gestured for him to join her at the table. "So you wanted to talk to me then?" she asked, smiling softly. It would hurt, talking about this but she knew that he deserved to know what was going on in his own family, even if he hadn't been there for a while. "We can get straight to the point, if you prefare or we can talk about nicer things before that. Which ever you want, my darling." she said quietly, her voice quite weak.

Morph sat down and gazed at his pale, drawn mother. Confidence in the truth of the matter… “Mom? What happened? What happened to you?” He asked concern in his face. “Why is Dracal running away? Where is Dad? Did Dad…” Morph’s voice got very quiet. “Did dad really try and kill himself?” Morph didn’t like asking the questions he just had. Didn’t want his mother, who looked so weak and pale to have to relive the pain she had had to go through, whatever it may have been. He hoped that by the time they were done talking about the more painful subjects, she would not be past the point of cheering up again.
