Welcome to Gaia! ::

Day walked slowly through the wilderness, admiring the scenery. He had always enjoyed staring across the fields near his birthplace, and when his family moved into the woods, this enjoyment had grown into a love of nature, especially the trees. He often got odd looks whenever he excused himself from the victory celebrations that followed a successful mission, but he always found it more calming to leave the town and trudge through a few miles of greenery. These walks brought back pleasant memories, and he thoroughly enjoyed them, even if it occassionally brough back the bad ones.

(Sorry, got to leave after my first post here. My sister's being a... well, anyway, don't expect me to respond if you reply to this post.)

Konstantine wandered through the wilderness. Aptly named, she thought to herself, finding naught but wilderness in every direction. She took a deep breath of the cool night air and smiled. Part of her realized it wasn't the worst place in which to be lost. And part of her wondered why she ever decided to go wandering through the middle of nowhere in the dead of night. Her pace quickened in an effort to get somewhere before night would turn to day. She glanced up at the moon and the stars through the trees every now and then. So busy she was with stargazing that she walked right into someone...

"Oh, I'm sorry," Konstantine said at the same time the man said the same thing. "I wasn't paying attention, either." She laughed nervously.

"Umm... do you know where the..." Konstantine said and then realized she didn't exaclty know where she was heading. "Do you know the closest place from here that's... not the wilderness?"

"Oh, thank you." Konstantine said and inclined her head in return. "My name is Konstantine. It's very nice to meet you, Ultima. I hope to see you again later." She smiled waved and started walking in the direction of the Women's dorms...

It had seemed like some time since... just about everything. So much had gone on. Her absence seemed yet to be a pebble in a pond, one that thought to be impossible to find. The last thing that was in her mind were, fading words. Her body seemed cold, frail, yet she could feel sunshine. Eye lids glued together, a blind vision. Every time she moved her mouth, nothing came out. It was as if she was floating, her body paralyzed to all senses. What was going on? Mind clouded, it would take some time to clear it again, time seeming to be all she had at the moment...

The voice sounded familiar... But the words were all one big slur. As a few people came into her mind, so did other thoughts. Slowly, she could feel her body almost... warming back up. Still seeming to be frozen, her lips moved, a soft whisper, "....Jay?...." At that point her eyes were slit open, it fairly obvious to tell that she was holding them back from opening them.

Why was everything coming back to her now? It now seemed she could move some of her body, her head carefully falling on to his chest, one of her hands clinging to the cape around his body. Eyes closed once more, she showed emotion once more, tears falling, some being ones that had been stored up in her for so long. Heart racing, everything stopped for a mere second. "I'm..... sor... ry" it seemed all to dramatic, but hopefully it would all pass by soon enough, and things could just, snap back to the way they were... in such a different environment for the last time she remembered scenery.

Ultima sat above the two in there loving moment, he was a sucker for romance and but intended not to bother them by showing his face. He was sitting in a large Beech tree that hid his body but still let them hear them perfectly while there shadows wrote themselves on the tree next to him.

He had stumbled apon them by accident and quickly hid himself when he saw who it was, its not that he was spying but rather caught and trapped there. If he tried to move then they would find him and think he was spying.

As he listened to there conversation he bowed his head slowly and receded his flower downwards feeling ashamed that he had to witness this without there knowing.
