Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Umm....sure," said Kaoru nodding her head and following the Tea pot. "I was wonderin' what is your name? It would feel kind of strange just calling you Teapot."

Kaoru jumped up and place her forepaws on the door and pushed forward. She open the door and then went back down on all fours. "There we go. Oh my name is Kaoru by the way. Does the master of your have a name or is he just Mr. Beast?"

Mid-chan: Hughes began to hop around frantically, unsure of where their guest was at the moment, ignoring Squall and Cloud. "Oh, dear me. I should have been more attentive to her wherabouts. Hopefully she didn't wander into the Master's wing," he said in a soft, frantic-like tone of voice.

Alex Martinez: Kaoru then proceded to mak another sandwhich but not for herself. But for the Prince Roy or Beasties as she wanted to call him. Though she wasn't sure if he ever ate. Kaoru finished and took the plate in her mouth and began to head off toward Roy's wing.

Mid-chan: Hughes didn't even notice that Kaoru had wandered out of the kitchen and was not heading towards the West wing. He was too busy hopping around in circles.

Alex Martinez: Kaoru hopped up the stairs toward the west wing. She was being careful not to drop the food she made for him. Sure he was kinf of a jerk to her at first but even jerks deserved a good meal.

Mid-chan: Roy heard the soft sounds of what sounded like footsteps in the hallway leading to his room. He tensed his body as they got closer and closer to his room. "Who goes there?" he asked in a booming voice.

Alex Martinez: "Just a helpless little girl," said Kaoru sarcasticially. She placed the sandwhich on the plate on the ground. "I figure you were hungry."

Mid-chan: Roy grumbled under his breath as he ignored her for a few moments. Then a nagging voice in the back of his mind distrupted his silence. Go talk to her, the voice told him. It couldn't hurt to at least try to have a decent conversation with her. She gave up her freedom to get her father out of your...dungeons. He growled under his breath. That annoying little voice was right, though. He swiftly walked to the door and opened it just enough to let her inside.

Alex Martinez: Kaoru picked up the plate with food and went closer to the door. She wonder if he liked sandwhiches or not..this was confusing for her.Kaoru paused as she saw the door open to his room.

Mid-chan: Roy grew impatient with each second that passed by as he waited for her to enter his room. "Well? What are you waiting for?" he bellowed at her, annoyed that she was taking her time getting in his room.

Alex Martinez: Kaoru handed him the plate. "Here. I made it for you," she said with a smile on her face.

Mid-chan: Roy glanced down at her, then at the plate, and then at Kaoru. He frowned slightly, unsure of what he should say.

Alex Martinez: Kaoru looked at Roy. "You are suppose to say thank you," she said out of irratation.

Mid-chan: "Umm...thank you," he said quickly before taking the plate as gently as he could. He slowly slinked over to a worn-out sofa and indicated to Kaoru to sit whever she wanted to as he began to wolf down the sandwich.

Alex Martinez: Kaoru walked over to the couch. She examined it ab it. The couch look like it was going to fall to pieces at any moment. She then sat on the couch.

Mid-chan: Roy shifted slightly, uncertain of what to do in this situation. There had only been one time when a female had came to his castle and that was the same female who had put the curse on both him and his entire castle. He put the plate down on the ground and wrung his paws together nervously.

Alex Martinez: "How was it?" she asked tilting her head a bit to the side. Her eyes never to show fear of this male or anything. Just determination.
Mid-chan: "It was...good," he stammered to her, his voice not working properly.

Alex Martinez: "Good." she smiled. "So...why do you stay up here all alone?"

Mid-chan: He was startled by her question. Was it obvious why he stayed up here alone? Obviously not if she was asking her that question. "Isn't it obvious? I'm...hideous!"

Alex Martinez: "Hmmm...really? Are you sure its not something else. " She asked though she knew what kind of anwser she would get from him. She really wonder what he looked like before hand.

Mid-chan: He let a low growl escape his lips. "Why do you even want to know? It isn't like this...curse is just going to go away any time soon." He shifted his body so that he was slightly turned away from her.

Alex Martinez: "I see...So your ashamed of it?" She said placing her paw on his shoulder.

Mid-chan: Roy jerked his shoulder from Kaoru's touch. "Did I say that?"

Alex Martinez: "An assumption," said Kaoru. "Sorry..if you want me to leave I will leave." Kaoru then got off the couch and headed toward the door.

Mid-chan: Roy hesitated slightly. Don't let her leave, the voice told him. "Wait!" he yelled, not thinking about what he had just said until a few seconds later. "I...umm..." His courage had fled him again.

Alex Martinez: Kaoru turned her head and her ears flickered up. "Yes," she asked wanting to know why he asked her to wait.

Mid-chan: "I...um...." He stammered, unable to say anything else. Drat. Why did his courage have to flee him right when he needed it most. "I...am sure those...annoying servants of mine are....annoying....so s-stay here."

Alex Martinez: Kaoru instrest had perked up. She wonder why he wanted her to stay. Was he really that lonely. She went back to the beastie prince.

Mid-chan: Roy rubbed the back of his neck, uncertain of the female. He was weary of all females after what the sorceress had done to him years ago. "Um...you have a...pretty outfit."

Alex Martinez: "Well thank you very much," she replied in confusion. She wasn't sure what had gotten into him and him being soo nice to her.

Mid-chan: He shuddered slightly. Was she as bad as the sorceress. The voice did say for him to get to know her better. But how could he? He couldn't even deal with himself most of the time. "Ummm...tell me about your...past," he stammered to her.

Alex Martinez: "Well my father and I live together. He invents new items to help people. I go through the town almost everday and I enjoyed reading. My mother died when I was very young so I really didn't get to know her very well. " she started.

Mid-chan: Roy nodded, slightly interesting in what she had to say. She was almost like him except that he had lost both his parents to some accident that happened when he was ten years old.

Alex Martinez: "What about you? " she asked.

Mid-chan: He blinked a few times and stared at her with a blank look on his face. It took him a few moments to realize that she was wanting him to tell her about his past. "Well, my parents...the king and queen...had me many years ago. I was the only heir...to the throne. They...got killed when I was little. Been alone since then," he said in a soft tone of voice.

Alex Martinez: "Sounds sad. Is that why this happen to you. Did your sadness turn into bitterness." asked Kaoru.

Mid-chan: "No...that's not why," he said before pausing for several long, tense minutes. "A sorceress did this to me. I did...something cruel. I paid the price for it."

Alex Martinez: "hmmm...I think I heard about this lengend before. I didn't think was true though about a Prince being turned into a monster." said Kaoru in a shocked manner

Mid-chan: "Believe me...I wish it was a fairy tale," he muttered under his breath irritably.

Alex Martinez: " I believe from what I read either the prince had to repent for his sin or die from it." she said lowering her ears.

Mid-chan: Roy pointed to the rose that was kept in a container on top of a small stand. "That is my punishment for what I have done. That is why I keep myself locked up in my room, day in and day out, for the rest of my life. At least I thought I could." He paused for a few seconds. "Who could ever love a...a beast?!"

Alex Martinez: "Well if your heart wasn't soo locked up in doubt and sorrow anyone could," said Kaoru.

Mid-chan: He snorted softly. "Right. I doubt you could even stand the sight of me right now. You probably wanted me to take you as my prisoner out of pity for me or something like that."

Alex Martinez: "I've gotten used to it. There is a boy in my village who face is much more worse then yours is right now," said Kaoru trying to cheer him up.

Mid-chan: Roy snorted again. "Like anyone has an uglier mug than me," he commented harshly.

Alex Martinez: Kaoru laughed a bit. "Believe me Roy the world is not as black and white as you think to be. Even being here I can tell your heart isn't as black and cold hearted as I first thought...."

Mid-chan: Roy tensed up his entire body. "How do you know how I see things?" The tiny voice was back again. Don't be so harsh on her. She is just trying to calm you down, you oaf. He growled under his breath, shuddering slightly. "My heart isn't what you think it is."

Alex Martinez: Kaoru got confused for a moment. Then smiled. "I think your heart is good...you just have too much self doubt on your mind. That is what clouds it."

Mid-chan: Roy growled again, this time louder than before. He ignored her comment, however, as he closed his eyes. He leaned forward slightly so that his forehead was touching the arm of the couch lightly.

Alex Martinez: Kaoru sighed a bit. "I am going to go and leave. I bet the others are wondering where I am at. Might have given Hughes a heartattack. " she said again leaving and hanging her tails and ears low. Then she stopped as she remeber something from her village. "Did Hughes have a family?"

Mid-chan: Roy pinned his ears back against his skull when he heard Kaoru mention something about Hughes having a heart attack. "Not that I know of. He came to me on his own free will when my parents took him him after I was born. He is a few years older than I am. He doesn't really talk much about himself, though."

Alex Martinez: "Okay..Then nevermind. It must have been someone else that I was thinking off." She smiled and head out the door way, until she spoted a tore up picture. She looked at it for a moment seeing such sadness in the picture's eye and then left the room.

Mid-chan: Roy sighed loudly as he heard Kaory walk out of his room. He shifted his body so that his back was facing the door and he buried his face in his paws. "Who could ever love something this...this horrible."

Alex Martinez: Kaoru walked through the hall. It still gave her the creeps looking at the statues. She walked back to the kitchen. "Hughes, Squall, Cloud? Whhere are you?"

Mid-chan: The kitcen was empty. Hughes had decided it was pointless to jump around in circles and had gone off to look for Kaoru.

Alex Martinez: Kaoru sniffed about looking for the others. She first thought they went outside. Kaoru left the castle looking for Hughes and the other; though one thing she did forget was a scarf. "Brrr it is cold out here." she said shivering. "Hughes are you out here." Kaoru wondered into the forest. Squall and Cloud followed Hughes. "I don't think she in the castle Hughes," said Cloud. "I will have to agree with Cloud on this one," said Squall.
