Welcome to Gaia! ::

((Cool! biggrin I bet I would...))

"That's okay!" Kristal smiled, her hands behind her back as she looked intently at this wolf spirit. "I wouldn't mind if you did; I have to babysit a vampire kid sometimes and my half-brother is an android. But that's cool, a real wolf spirit, ne Spi?"

"Yes, yes..." Spiral harumphed, looking away with his arms crossed. Turning back to the serious conversation, he stared at Netsubo with his deep black eyes, seeming to pierce her very thought process and see into her heart. "...Why didn't you tell us that this was harmful to you in that way?"

Sighing, Ren stepped up to answer this question as best as he could, fearing that they had already used up most of Netsubo's life. "Isn't it obvious? She didn't tell us because then we would have prevented her from using it. That, and there's some other reason to this I don't know; correct, Netsubo?"

Before Kristal could answer, Spiral jumped into the conversation she was having with Lupin. "Don't you dare say yes to that question; I know you've seen wolves before!!" He barked at her in an older brotherly voice, smacking her lightly with his fist on the top of her head. As she rubbed at her head and stared up at her younger brother pleadingly, he sighed and decided to explain what he was doing this for to the wolf spirit he had ignored to stop his sister form answering. "She has seen wolves before, and a wolf spirit, but they are her favorite animal, so she likes to act like a child whenever she sees one; I'm actually the reason she knows what a wolf is at all."

Ignoring the others, Ren shook his head and raised one hand to draw Fang's attention to himself. "It might be our fault; there were these evil spirits inhabiting us and she used her powers, the Blood Bane, I believe, to get rid of these parasitic spirits."

"By the way," Kristal started up, walking quickly over to Netsubo. "I still have to get that one out of you, don't I?"

((...I think, at least. And you do that; you'll have fun. XD))

((Oh...I remembered wrong then...))

"Then...Maybe I could try healing you up a bit...?" Kristal offered, wanting to repay the kindness that she had been shown. Spiral's head snapped up at her offer, and he looked about ready to object to it before she continued on to cut off what her younger brother had to say. "I am a decent healer and all, and I could probably even restore a bit of your life if I do it right..."

Ren cocked his head to the side as he turned his stare towards the purple-haired girl, raising one eyebrow at her. "...You can heal people?" He asked, not sounding in the slightest bit perplexed, only sounding annoyed. "Since when could you do that?"

Smiling with embarrassment, Kristal took a step back and clasped her hands behind her back to show her nervousness. "W-Well, I've always been able to use this healing power, but I'm always being told that I shouldn't use very much of it or use it often..." She shrugged nonchalantly and grinned up at Netsubo unexpectedly. "But, as long as there is a friend in need of this power, I shall use it to the best of my capabilities in order to help out as much as I can!"

Scoffing, Spiral grabbed on to his sister's shoulder protectively with a death grip. "You're absolutely right I'm against it! Do you know how badly she could get hurt if she uses her powers?!"

Frowning, Kristal tried to think of a way to convince her brother to use these powers that were an anomaly. "...But Netsubo-chan is hurt...I could also help restore some of her life back...And your healing powers only go as far as open wounds..."

Shaking his head and sighing again, Ren stepped in to stop their debate. "Look, if Netsubo would like to be healed, then you can heal her, Kristal. If she doesn't, and you don't want to take the risk, then you shouldn't. As long as we know that Netsubo's life is stable for now, that's the best thing that we can do for now." Kristal nodded in agreement, smiling again, while Spiral glared outright at the purple-haired boy; there had always been that reason why he didn't like this boy, and there was the reason tow-fold now. "Besides, I think that we should all be getting rest; it's too early for us to be up already."

Looking at Fang and Lupin, he jerked his head back in a gesture that meant that they were to follow him. Kristal could see that her master's usual pushy ways wouldn't get through or please these two men, so she smiled politely and stepped up for Ren. "Um, Master Ren would like you to follow him; he can get you your rooms."

"I-I see..." Kristal replied, a bead of sweat rolling down her head as she smiled nervously. "...I think I know that kind of type; I have twin brothers and they are kind of like that type..."

Shaking his head, Ren looked up towards the ceiling and shrugged. "Whatever. I'm tired right now; I can trust you enough to take good care of her, I suppose."

Kristal stared at Ren as if he had grown another head; he might as well have. Those may have been the kindest words she had ever heard come out of his mouth, even if he had said them in an angry tone. "...R-Right!" She agreed, realizing that she was staring for no good reason. Turning back to Fang and Netsubo, she bowed politely to them. "Good night; sleep well, the three of you. Oh, and please try not to sneak out, Netsubo-chan; you have to recover."

"You're welcome." Ren replied coolly over his shoulder to the shaman behind him, then walked off to return to his room where he would be having a nice and long rest. After all the defending he did and trying to spot people's lying habits, he was more than a little tired. "Good night."

Laughing a bit nervously at the joke Fang had made, Kristal bowed to the three good friends, along with her spirit of a little brother behind her. "Thank you for your help earlier, Netsubo Mei-Mei." She thanked, smiling up at the young girl shaman. Glancing to the sides quickly and discreetly, she padded over to Netsubo as softly as she could and put a hand up to Netsubo's ear so that only she would be able to hear what she whispered. "If you like Master Ren, go ahead and talk to him about it. He may look like the kind to brush people like us off, but I know he can be very sweet; and besides, I'm sure that he likes you too."

Having said what she needed, Kristal smiled at Netsubo and backed up to the door; she may have looked a bit too pleased with herself for it to have been normal. If there was anything she could do to help out her Master and her friends, then she was going to do it.

"Have a nice rest, Netsubo Mei-Mei!" She grinned as she bowed again and turned to leave. "You too, Fang-sama, Lupin-sama. We shall see you all in the morning!"

With that all said and done, Kristal left for her room, with Spiral close on her tail.

((I'm evil!! EVIL!!! gonk I'ma gonna let you have Ren. :3))

((Aren't I? ;D ^-^;;;; KK had a mischievous streak right there...))

Smiling to herself, Kristal made her way down the hallways and to her room, which just so happened to also be Horo and Hao's room. Upon entering, she hit Horo's head with the door, causing a low thud.

"Nice aim, but the least you could have done was crash in so he would have gotten knocked out."

"HEY!! I'll have you know that it DID hurt!!"

Blinking in surprise, she looked over to see the blue-haired Ainu boy on the floor, rubbing his head, and the pyromaniac on his own bed, propping his head up with his hand. "...Hey you two..." She greeted them weakly, even raising one of her hands to greet them. The two looked up at her from their fight, and while Hao shook his head at the slow shaman, Horo practically leapt up to his feet in order to give Kristal a quick glomp. "H-Horo-san...?"

"Kristal, HEY!!" At an earsplitting volume, Horo greeted the young shaman with a shout, still holding on to her. She winced from the volume while Spiral steamed behind her quietly. "Glad you're all right! Looks like you're rooming with us guys for the night! Hope Ren and Netsubo don't mind us two perverted minds corrupting you~!"

"Um...I'm already corrupt...?" Kristal tried to plead, carefully peeling Horo off of herself. "Besides that, I think we should get some rest now..."
