█║▌│█│║▌║ • Daniel Cliff KazamaOur time has come, watch me set it off... It's been a while but we back... So you can count it loss... We lay and wait, don't hesitate... When opportunity knocks... Break the locks and rush the gates.... Seize the day, we got moves to make... Daniel tilted his head with a faint smile as a slight shiver shot up his spine; fortunately he was able to keep from doing something really embarrassing. "Yeah... though my mother is second in line for the throne if anything were to happen to Kitana..." he said just loudly enough to be clearly audible, forgetting that it was a not-so-subtle reference to a video game series. A faint smile flickered over his face as he glanced at Michiru; he knew she'd seen the animated series that was supposedly their 'heroic' sides. People don't seem to realize that what they think are cartoons may be walking right past them on the street, he thought. He inhaled slowly before sighing before he blinked, cocking his head as he recognized a scent before the door opened. Makoto blinked as she saw Daniel and Nevaeh; she knew of Nevaeh, since much like her they worked both as students and at times, teaching assistants. "What happened to you two? Last I heard you two were in your rooms," she said with confusion in her voice. Michiru had said they'd found Haruka and Hotaru looking very battered and she had fixed a large plate of brownies for the duo. Her gaze shifted to the other beds to see Haruka and Hotaru both sleeping still. OOC-

Ebony Nevaeh "When I sing everything becomes perfect, I have no worries. My music is my safe-haven away from reality. I was born with it and it's been inside me all along. Like my blood. To me, music is essential as eating, drinking and breathing. Music is a way of expression, and it's through that expression that it became my heartbeat, it's what has kept me alive and sane for my 16 years. I would sooner die than live without my songs." ✘xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Nevaeh ( The Singer . )xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx I walk a lonely road The only one I have ever known Don't know where it goes But it's home to me and I walk alone I walk this empty street On the boulevard of broken dreams When the city sleeps And I'm the only one and I walk alone My shadows the only one that walks beside me My shallow hearts the onlything that's beating Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me 'Till then I walk alonexxxxxxxxx ╔═══════════════ ☩『 ☪ 』☩ ══════════════╗
Nevaeh shivered at the shock that ran up her spine and flushed slightly before sitting down in his lap and practically purring at the pleasant hum of energy that was running between them. Se rested her head on his shoulder and closed her eyes gently before they opened again and there was a flash of gold in her blue-grey eyes before fading. She looked at Makoto and then to Daniel leaving him to answer that question.

"Nevaeh was helping me when we noticed a guy carrying something into a building a half mile from most of the other buildings... ended up finding Hotaru and Haruka, though Nevaeh got hurt because of me," he said wryly; all of it was true except that the 'guy' in question had kidnapped Nevaeh to draw him there. Makoto blinked, cocking her head before she smiled. "Do you want some? From the looks of it, they're asleep for the moment and they're probably exhausted," she said cheerfully. OOC-

Nevaeh frowned at the re-telling. She didn't want to remember any of what had happened. When Makoto offered brownies Nevaeh nodded slightly and took one. She gratefully took a bite and then she really did start purring in contentment. She was warm, comforted, had great food, and most importantly, the knowledge that she was safe from those men.

Break the locks and rush the gates.... Seize the day, we got moves to make... Daniel tilted his head slightly, amused. He gently squeezed her shoulder, well aware of the calluses on the heel and tops of his palms and fingertips, the former from something other than music. He knew the movement was meant to comfort her, as unless the leader had been extremely lucky, he didn't survive the destruction of the building. He shifted as he picked up a brownie, amused at Nevaeh's reaction to the brownie. He shifted subtly before he apparently pulled something out of her ear before sliding the pale lavender-white rose behind it. Makoto half smiled at Daniel's actions; it was obvious that he was fond of Nevaeh much like Michiru was with Haruka. She pulled out Daniel's notebook before laying it on the bed next to them. "I added a verse to it," she said with amusement. She watched Daniel open the notebook to the half finished song. Little Suzy, she was only twelve... She was given the world, With every chance to excel...
Hang with the boys and hear the stories they tell, She might act kind of proud, But no respect for herself...
She finds love in all the wrong places, The same situations... Just different faces,
Changed up her pace since her daddy left her... Too bad he never told her, She deserved much better... it read. Daniel cocked his head, a faint smile flickering over his face. The full song read as follows: Last day of the rest of my life... I wish I would've known, Cause I didn't kiss my mama goodbye...
I didn't tell her that I loved her and how much I care... Or thank my pops for all the talks, And all the wisdom he shared...
Unaware, I just did what I always do... Everyday, the same routine, Before I skate off to school...
But who knew that this day wasn't like the rest... Instead of taking a test, I took two to the chest...
Call me blind, but I didn't see it coming... Everybody was running, But I couldn't hear nothing...
Except gun blasts, it happened so fast... I don't really know this kid... Even though I sit by him in class,
Maybe this kid was reaching out for love... Or maybe for a moment... He forgot who he was, Or maybe this kid just wanted to be hugged... Whatever it was, I know it's because...
[chorus:] We are, We are... the youth of the nation... We are, We are... the youth of the nation...
Little Suzy, she was only twelve... She was given the world... With every chance to excel...
Hang with the boys and hear the stories they tell, She might act kind of proud, But no respect for herself...
She finds love in all the wrong places... The same situations, Just different faces... OOC-

Nevaeh smiled cutely up at Daniel as she continued to nibble at the brownie. When he pretended to pull something out of her ear and then places a rose behind her ear she giggled and smiled. She really was happy. Everything seemed like it would be fine. Like they could have a happily ever after. When Makoto pulled out Daniel's notebook Nevaeh leaned over and gently picked it up. Holding it so both she and Daniel could she it.

Break the locks and rush the gates.... Seize the day, we got moves to make... Daniel shifted slightly closer to Nevaeh, unaware he'd done so before he felt the rose's petals tickling just up under his nose. "I started thinking of a friend of mine that had been killed in drive-by shooting... and decided to do a song that would in essence memorialize him," he said quietly. Offhandedly, he recalled that the young man in question actually had been on his way to school and a student in his class happened to be skipping and was later found to be the actual shooter. It had been a few days after he'd moved to Tokyo and enrolled in Juuban Municipal High School. He saw Makoto's eyes widen in realization as she recalled exactly what he'd written the song for. "But... you knew about Kuji Kayama's death though not many outside his family knew?" Makoto said, mildly confused. Daniel exhaled. "I was hiding my true nature then, but I heard the gunshots and was one of the few that saw what happened... why do you think the oil pan was punctured? I was aiming to take out the tires, but lobbed it too far," he said with a shrug. He knew that Makoto knew the tires had been deflated before the gang members had been arrested. OOC-

Nevaeh looked between the two of them trying to figure out what was going on exactly, before she gave up and kissed his jaw quickly. "I'm' sure you did the best you could"

"If I'd been willing to reveal my true nature, I would have kept him alive... though unfortunately it likely would have drawn attentiion to me, and I don't mean the pleasant kind," he said quietly. He meant attention similar to what Nevaeh had gone through, but worse. OOC-

Nevaeh didn't agree or disagree with him. Instead she shuddered lightly and curled closer to him.

"I may be guilty over what happened, but I can't let it take over my life," he muttered under his breath, not realizing as he exhaled that tendrils of icy mist leaked from his lips due to his father's 'cold' nature. "I won't let it rule my life... because what rules your thoughts controls your life," he muttered. OOC-

Nevaeh felt the cold ice land on the top of her head and back of her neck and she shivered slightly. She looked up at him and placed her fingers on his lips. They were so cold.

"Sorry about that... it's something I inherited from my father... fortunately I can control it to some extent rather than well.... he did," he said wryly. He knew that if a doctor were to check him out now, they'd think him hypothermic as his body temperature had dropped from 98.6 to 95.8. He tilted his head as Ami slipped into the door as Hotaru grinned from behind Makoto before she gently touched his brunette dorm-mate's shoulder, making the taller girl jump visibly. "What's wrong, Mako-chan?" Hotaru said with laughter. OOC-

Nevaeh nodded in understanding and curled closer to him. Compared to how cold he felt right it almost seemed like she had a fever.

To his surprise, a low growling sound followed. Forgot about that... he thought wryly. His grandfather's nature meant that his metabolism was ridiculous, usually requiring somewhere between 5500 and 7000 calories a day. OOC-
