It was just after Midnight and little Evita had finally determined she was lost, she looked around and all she could see was trees. The wind howled loudly but Evita tried to shake off her fear. She kept telling herself she would reach home soon and be in her nice cozy warm bed.
The moon beamed down on her for a split second but was soon covered once again by clouds.
Evita let out a little groan and plopped on the floor
Maybe I can just wait here till someone finds me she mumbled to herself
All of a sudden there was a rustling in the bushes
soon followed by eyes
Evita jumps up quickly and braces herself for attack
WHO'S THERE she growled

((Couldn't resist xd ))
A deep voice answered the female's fearful tone, "Was that a question? Or a statement?" Emerging from the brushes nearby, a slick green and black wish made his way out into the moonlight. Upon seeing the female before him, his sly smirk faded and he sat himself back casually. "Evita..." he sighed. Feeling quite awkward, he shifted on spot and then proceeded to scold his lady love interest. "Being out at night is most unwise! What are you doing out this late? What if it was someone else who found you and not me? Someone who could mean you harm?" Edward grumbled. He kept his tone somewhat soft though, so as not to sound enraged at his mate. He was both upset and concerned at this debacle.

((After ten mimutes of waffling, I have decided! It had to be done!))  A figure in red slunk out of the darkness, a couple feathers trailing in his usually meticulous fur. "Yes, quite. What are you doing out here this late, Evvy? And why did you let her go off by herself?" His voice was thick with barely-held anger, at Evvy's foolishness, at the self-proclaimed genius' apparent slip-up. After all, Evvy knew that no matter how harsh he could be, that he cared for her. And he still didn't quite trust the green-and-black wish. There was something off about him, and that was apparent to Houdanse as the bright pink horns on top of the other half-breed's head.

Evita looked like she was about to cry, I..I don't know I just thought it was a nice night but then I went bounding off after someone I thought I knew and before I knew it I was here. I didn't mean to get so lost I just wanted to come out here and practice my dancing.
She looked up at the moon as a little tear trickled down her face.

Edward shot a dark glare in Houda's direction. "What relationship books have you been reading over? There's something called 'personal space' and I respect Evita's decisions. I go out at night, that's my right as an individual..." he stumbled over his words. At Evita's tears he immediately turned his attention to her. "Evi...awe...look I...I'm not mad. You could have been hurt! I thought you'd stay safe at home..." he began again, still unsure of what to say.

Please don't fight you two *she quickly wipes away her tear before it is noticed
"I just couldn't help it, I come outside...when I am upset" she managed to spit out
I come out here just to think and gather my feelings
I was inside and and I..I remembered a small glimpse of my parents
Evita was now fully in tears now, at realizing this she covered her face with her tail and curled up in a ball on the cold ground letting her tears softly hit the earth

Houdanse's glare was immediate and scathing as he turned to face the pink-horned wish. "You, I trust to not get into trouble, Edward. Forgive me for worrying about my sister." His harsh look softened when Evvy began to cry. He smiled gently, wiping her tears off with his tail with an unusually gentle gesture for the large wish. "I miss them too, ma belle soeur." My dear, beautiful sister. He wrapped his tail around her. "I miss them too."

"Me getting into trouble, monsieur?" Edward smirked for a moment, mocking Houda's accent, "So says the one wearing evidence of a crime. Been checking into chicken coupes tonight, Houda?" Still smirking Edward swayed on spot in thought. Houda had already stolen the opening for him to get close to Evita to comfort her, so for the time being, he sat back quizzically. "I do sympathize" he added quickly, "My mother passed away and my father, beat me and never understood my genius."

Evita snuggled her face into her brothers soft comforting fur and began to cry more
Please don't fight anymore said Evita as she flashed sad eyes at Edward then she looked deeply into eyes and let out a soft mutter
I never knew...I..I'm so sorry

Houdanse blinked, not sure whether to glare at Edward for making her sadder, or to sympathize with him. "Sssshhh... ma belle, it is alright. It is not a good time for such sad subjects... we can do that when we are warm, well-fed, and inside." He turned to Edward and considered the other wish's statement. "Well, I keep the foxes, martens, and other predators away, and I take occasional liberties with them in return. It works out, the farmers do not question their good fortune, as long as I leave the young laying hens, and the roosters, alive. Our former human owner thought it an amusing thing to dress us all up... I was kept in the company of two particularly nasty hens for the longest time. Now, I eat them. It is better this way. And, I must say, that your accent is atrocious and you speak it through your nose far too much, my dear friend."

Evita sighed as she listened to her brother and her mate argue over silly subjects
She trotted off down the path still hearing her brothers voice in the distance
I wish they could just get along she muttered to herself
then she paused remembering she didn't know her way home and headed back following the sound of Houdanse's voice

Edward managed a smirk at Houda's criticism of his faux accent. "Nothings wrong with eating chickens. Just the fact that you at first seemed to accuse me of being out and up to no good when your paws were dirtier than mine, so to speak" he added, never taking his eyes off Evita; who'd now decided to take a stroll away and back again. "Being on the move might help us turn towards a cheerier subject" he suggested, sensing Evita was getting a bout of itchy feet and didn't likely like that they were staying in one place out in the night. He looked over to Houda again and held out a paw to Evita, "Shall we let the lady lead? At least with the both of us trailing her, she'll be safe to wander."

Houdanse chuckled, knowing exactly what had led her to coming back, and having a good idea as to why she'd left. "By all means, sister, lead on," he said, brushing the feathers away. "Since something will have doubtless found my prize, and I do not fancy eating chicken after it is cooled." It dries out so much when it is cooked a second time... He looked to her. "Shall we, mon ami, ma soeur?"

Evita trotted down the path with her brother and mate close behind. The whole way she kept thinking about the fighting, she couldn't help but wish the two boys would just get along. She thought to herself as the cool wind blew
She shivered a bit then got to thinking what happens if Houdanse never accepts Edward, then what? She loved Edward yet never could find the words to tell him she also couldn't help wondering if maybe he didn't quite love her back. She looked up at the moon once more and in doing so stumbled over some brush, she regained her balance and continued on, soon coming across a small light just about a mile or so from where she stood.

"Cold anything is never pleasing to eat. Buuut beggars, such as myself, can't be choosers at times. You'd be disgusted knowing some of the things I've tried to live off eating at times. Being a genius doesn't..." he began, trailing off in mid sentence at switching his attention from Houda back to Evita. He tried to hide a sort of forlorn expression as he finished his sentence with a final word, "pay." It severely disheartened him in that moment, as he thought to himself as he gazed upon his 'partner.' He, a city underbelly dwelling intellectual had nothing to provide her with. Maybe Houda was right in his previous sayings. What good could he ever do for the beautiful, pure hearted and talented female before him?
