"...um.. well... I was in my cell.. and I was leaning against the wall.. and then everything went black........ then.... I was on the floor, and you were here.........................." She blinked and looked around the room again.

Akin tilted his head,
"...Went though the wall? Interesting..." He glanced at the wall, and put and hand on it, pressing. Nope..Nothing. Darn. That was no fun.

"..is that what happened?" She laughed childishly. "I didn't know I could fall through walls!" She smiled wide as she laughed. "So.. what was your name again?"

Akin shook his head,
"I never told you, so how could I say it again? And I dunno what happened..." He said, standing up and pushing on the wall again. Curses...He wanted out of here.

"... I wish I could help you.." She looked over at him and poked the wall. "what's so interesting about a wall?"

Akin growled, and slammed his fists against the wall,
"They won't move! I want OUT!" He shouted, slamming his fists again. He wanted out so bad, he'd give almost anything. He lay his head on the wall, rubbing his wrists,
"...My name is Akin..." He muttered, turning and sliding down the wall.

She smiled broodly. "So your name is Akin! That's a pretty name!" She looked over at the wall again and pushed on it. "Why would it move? It seems pretty solid" Her hand starts sinking into the wall. "to me... eh?!"

Akin bolted to his feet again, staring at her,
"Why can you move through walls? Why can you get out, when I can't?" He demanded, pacing the room. Why was she gifted with this power, and not him?

The wood-man, after a perfectly timed, polite pause, continued, "I'm here. You're not. Hee hee." Accent infallably sophisticated, he parted the creaky, oak hat from an immaculately groomed head, eyes wide and lifeless, bark-teeth huge and constantly smiling. Eyes glinting a shocking white in contrast to the grime of his face, his body took a violent life of its own, and proceded to thrash awkwardly backwards within his safe suit.NO. Screaming and bludgeoning himself randomly into every surface available, the dirty loon's battered and seemingly sentient body decided to test the saftey of the net of pillows encompassing the walls."Oh me, oh my," creaking with age, the wood-man's face contorted with sympathy and shock, although his huge teeth still made the scene comical. "What have we here? Another, another?" NO. Something was pulling him down. Unfortunately, the best and brightest at Sina failed to realize that, unless the bright lights were placed upon the walls as well, thus endangering their charge, his form in the padded cell still created the slightest of a shadow.
Laying on the ground, back arched from imaginary agony, a glimpse of a frail little shadow was borne under the dirty man's form.
It fed."Now now," Wood-Man sounded honestly concerned."Don't overwork yourself, Another. We've handfuls and gobs more work to do. Or have you forgotten again?" The swamp, composed entirely of large and rather colorful beetles down to every specie imaginable, dragged him further and further down, engulfing him wholly and crawling up his nose and ears and mouth. Quivering, the tiny shadow tested itself in the brutal, lighted world, and shot back under. After a few seconds more of growth, the golomesque being tried its luck again, this time finding that its substance was not immediately dissapated, though certainly deminished.
It fed.Sighing impatiently, Wood-Man's petrified marble eyes rolled hollowly in their slightly-too-big, carved out sockets, and he creaked all the way over to the imaginary beetle wetland, shaking a knobby wooden cane. "Have at you! Shoo, shoo! I've business with this man!" A gritty, bark face creaked and groaned a second time to form frustration, almost anger. Reluctently, the insects froze and, with a dismal glance at their fun's passing away, dissolved and reformed into thousands upon thousands of uniform gray pidgeons, teetering into the sky on a windless twilight. Now huge and able to care for itself in what was before unbearable conditions, the shadow creature wavered, melted, and reformed.. into Wood-Man.
"Now, now," it started, shadow-whisper barely remembering the faintest hint of the illusion's classy dialect, "We can't get much done walled up, now, can we?"
Strutting confidently toward the cell's door, Shade Man melted, reformed on the other side, and unleashed a ridiculous grin.
It wasn't so well-lit out here.
With its newfound strength, the creature deftly draped knobby fingers across the switch-lock, and freed the insane man from his prison. Agony flicking off like a light switch, he grinned, stood, and loudly cracked a very abused neck.
It was time to play.

"EEEEK! NOT AGAIN!!!!!" Hema pulls her hand back and rubs it. "What are you talking about?! This sucks!!!" she continues rubbing her hand to make sure that it's still there.

Akin continued pacing, wringing his hands,
"You're lucky, you know...You're able to leave your cell, if you have one. I can't..I'm stuck in here. With nothing to do. Nothing! You can move around as you please...go from place to place...Do things. I can't. I can't!" He looked around the room, like a dog trapped in a corner, backing up against the wall,
"The walls are so close. It's unbarable. I'm trapped in here. Trapped! Like a bird in a cage, only I can't see out! Why is it so cold...so enclosed.." Akin began shaking, looking quickly around the room with jerky movements, his eyes wide.

She looked over at him a little worried. "It's really not a gift.. and I don't really know how it works.. and it doesn't always work.."

Akin stared at her, his hands shaking violently,
"N..Not a gift?...It is a gift. A great gift! You can get out of this damned cold place!" He screamed, getting to his feet again. He gripped his hair, pounding his head repeatedly on the wall. He didn't do it hard, just enough to hurt. He wanted out so baddly batty badly and now his head hurt.

His words throbbed in her head. "..e-eek..." Hema leaned against the wall behind with her hands on her ears trying, without success, to keep the noise out.

Akin looked at her,
"Am I scaring you?" He asked, giggling, "Why don't you just leave then?..Use that gift of yours...like some of us can't..." He sighed, and knelt, crossing his feet under him. He stared at her, fiddling with his hair.
