"A-Alright..."
He shuddered again, still unsure about this. He could handle vampires and werewolves, but not undead, not undead.
Takato nodded and brought her over to his bed and flew her up onto it.

Seeing a sign of the frost coming back to the entrance way, Emily came outside. She was holding a small torn up bag that was obviously full of her things. There was also a very light blue, almost white, feather hanging from her hair. Kitty plucked it out, putting it in her own hair.
"Alright. It looks like we're all set to go. Thank you Emily. Oh! You dropped your finger on the way back in."
"Thank you Mother."
Emily took back her finger that her Mother had been holding on to. She simply stuck it back into place, almost like a tiny screw.
"Riddle, this is Floe. She hasn't evolved yet... But still, she's another one of my daughters. Now, would you care to lead the way please?"
Autumn instantly clung to the bed, rolling herself over, her back turned to Takato. She was shivering, most likely beginning to run a fever of some sort.
"Thaaaankk yooouuuu....", she whispered lightly.
"Noowww... Pleeeaassssssee.. Leeeaavvvvveee...."

Takato nodded and grabbed Ashley's hand, pulling her out of the room.
Riddle shuddered when she stuck her finger back in.
"Alright, let's go."
Riddle started back towards his house, wondering how he would keep the frost from covering it.

As the three of them walked along, every step that Emily took covered the ground with frost. The cold air stayed around them as well.. To her, this was normal. To everyone else, it was a disaster.
"Excuse me Sir... But what may I call you by? I do realize that you're my Mother's friend."
Autumn layed in bed, twitching and sweating, her temperature rising dramatically. She hated this... And hoped it would be the last time it would ever happen.

"You may either call me Riddle."
Riddle had other methods of keeping warm. He simply adjusted his body to become warmer to handle the coolness.
Takato waited for her to say they could come in.

"Alright then Riddle... My name is Emily, as you already know. How do you know my Mother?"
It had been minutes now, no sound coming from the room that held Autumn at all. Takato and Ashley couldn't even hear her thrashing around anymore...

"We met when we were children."
Takato's curiosty got the better of him. He peeked his head around the corner and looked at Autumn.
((Wait a minute...how did Kitty know Riddle when he was a child...if Riddle didn't come to Gaia until about age 10? She'd have to be a Cloudian or Sky Elemental to know him before that...))

((Hrmmm... You never know.... ninja ))
"Children huh..? I was a child once... Long, long ago... I grew up... I had planned to get married... And then I got lost in the forest..... That's when I was shot and killed... I don't know by who.... But regardless... I walk amongst the dead as well as the living now."
There, lying on the bed, was Autumn, However, she was not in her teenager form at all. She had evolved... Evolved into a beautiful adult. She had fallen asleep on the bed, due to all the stress and temperature build up prior to her evolution.

Riddle shrugged, he didn't really know how to answer that.
Takato found himself staring. She was absolutely beautiful...he couldn't resist.

"Just saying is all... It does explain my excellent speech and all..."
Emily simply shrugged, staying close to her Mother's side.
Autumn was just laying there, breathing quietly. Her mouth was partly open and her hair was flowing everywhere. The scent of popery was mild and the dried leaves were tangled in and around her hair.

Riddle noticed they were back on the trashed beach.
Takato decided not to wake her up. He smiled again, then pulled his head back and sat normally. Ashley was looking around timidly.

"Great... This place again... I hate it... It's makes me so depressed..."
Emily held onto Kitty's jacket, the tips of it becoming frosty.
"I don't like this place Mommy...."
"I know Emily... I don't either..."
After a few more minutes, Autumn began to stir. Her eyes slowly opened and she tossed her head around a bit.
"Uhhh.. Where... Where am I..?"

"Yeah...there's been many complaints about it. But this is all historic...a rebellion started here, and also ended on this beach. So they wanted to keep it as is, but everyone wants to change it. They say it'll be good for new land and such."
Takato stood up and walked back in. Ashley walked off in the other direction, looking around the house.
"Autumn?"

"I hate it.... It's just... So nerve-wrecking to me...."
Emily nodded, not liking this place just as much as her Mother.
Autumn tossed her head over to the direction of Takato, her eyes trying to readjust.
"Takato... What happened to me...?"

Takato uncorked the vial that hung next to his waste and called out the water. It expanded and grew, forming a watery mirror.
"Come on, we're almost off it anyway."
