Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Your welcome." Sora told her. Looking into her eyes, and admiring the color of them. Quietly wishing he could just hug her or something, but knew that he couldn't.
It would just make all of this harder... He quietly reminded himself. As the kit walked up to them, clearly thinking about something. I'll have to ask it later what's up... he reminded himself. He then smiled at Athena.
"Don't worry about it Athena... You have to do what you have to do." He said, trying to reasure her. "In the end I'm sure we'll both be alright" He said with a wink. Eventually... he added in his mind.
"Alright... I'm sure Leon is looking for you and is worried. Let's get you back to him..." Sora said, still keeping up the smiling, and cheerfulness.
"After you milady..." He said with a bow, and gesture for her to go down a path behind them.

Sora smiled at the sound of her laughter. Such a lovely sound... he couldn't help but think. Then he shook his head a little. Need to stop this... Just going to get you in trouble... he then thought with another smile.
Sora then saw Athena look back at him. Then stopped with her question for him. His eyes opened wide with her question, surprised that she could think such a thing.
"Mad? At you? Never my friend. You have done nothing that could possibly make me mad." He reasured her with a smile.
Gods forbid if anyone made me mad again... he couldn't help but think, repressing a shudder.
Well Appollyon isn't here... I think we're safe for that... the kit suddenly tried to joke with him.
Sora just sent him a mental look back saying that that was not something that could be joked about.

Sora tited his head at her, a little confused at what she was doing at first. Then with a small smile he realized then, and took a few steps forward, so that they could walk next to one another.
The kit at the last second jumping up, and snuggling into his pack.

Sora glanced over at Athena. He could see that she was smiling.
I wonder what about... he couldn't help but think. But at the same time couldn't help but smile a little himself at the same time.
He could then see Leon. Somehow the man didn't look as happy.
Probably something to do with yelling at her... Sora somewhat hoped.
He held back a sigh. It didn't seem fair to him at the time. She was such a nice person, and she had to travel with someone that didn't seem to care for her.
well i suppose their family or something. something i probably should stay out of in the end.

Sora watched as Leon took Athena into his arms and held her tightly. He couldn't help but smile, happy that they were making up. Glad that Leon had finally applogised to Athena.
Sora couldn't help but be a little jelous of him as well though. Leon was able to get close to Athena, while Sora was only able to tal with her. Not letting anything show he quickly mentally shook the thought away. At least we are friends he reminded himself. I have no reason to be jelous, because we are still friends...At this he was able to smiled a little.
He then saw Leon step away from Athena, and listened as he adressed Sora. Sora thought for a moment before he awnsered.
"Aye Leon we can speak together if you wish..." He finally said. Letting go then of all the bad things he thought of Leon, because he was not kind to Athena when they first met.

Sora eyebrows rose as he heard Leon's request. After a moment though his emotions went back down again, as he pondered what to tell him.
Quietly he sighed.
"Your right... At first I didn't like you much. I felt that you were not very kind to Athena at all, and really had no business being her guardian at the time. But I also figured that you two were close enough for her to stay with you for this long, and did not question it much. She's old enough to make her own decisions." He told him. But then he sighed again.
"I would love to take care of her. But I do not think that she would want me to. She already told me that she doesn't know how she feels about me, and that she wanted some time away from me to figure those feeling out. I feel that that should be respected..." He then said truthfully.
"I do not know how I should respond to your request Leon. For although I would not mind doing so, she might. Maybe this is truely her call? Or maybe you should just make it." Sora said. Standing there then waiting for Leon to say saomthing.

Sora supressed a growl as he watched Leon walk away from him towards Athena. An actually hissing came out of his pack though, as the kit poked it's head out, and watched him as well.
Mean. the kit thought to him.
Sora just reminded quiet. At least to the kit.
Horrible. He's just going to leave her with just a goodbye. No exsplaination, no warning even... He thought to himself, fists tightening, and eyes narrowing at Leon's back.
Sora?
Hmm?
What are we going to do?
Sora sighed. Relaxing then, and looking towards where Athena was standing.
Stay til morning, and figure it out then. Its all we really can do Kit. At least til later. He told the kit.
Then the kit jumped out of the pack, and they began to walk to where Athena and Leon stood.

Sora and the kit followed at a distance, as the two of them headed towards Leon's fish.
FISH!!!! said the kit.
No. It's not ours. said Sora.
But... But...
How about you go find us a deer... Sora told it with a twinkle in his eye.
You mean you'll actually let me do it?
If you don't burn down the place... then yes i will... Sora told the kit.
The kit purred and rubbed up against him happily. Then bounded off into the woods.
