Welcome to Gaia! ::

The man nodded, not able to do anything at the moment as he just sighed, leaning against the tree. Kalore sighed silently, looking around. Where he was at, Kalore saw that the place was still a beautiful place. It was probably the only thing that he missed about the elven world. There were a few people that the elf cared about, but the most important ones were within range of him to get to. That was good...but now this was getting in the way. Kalore just sighed again, trying to think of something else.

Sighing, Kalore's eyes closed as he wondered briefly about what the hell was going on with him. The man had never actually really cared what people did or what they were thinking, especially people that he didn't want to date or something along those lines. Was Monty becoming one of those really close friends? That wouldn't be good... He sighed but Kalore's eyes shot open as he heard something snap.

On guard, Kalore looked around, knowing for a fact that he had heard something, but he didn't know what it was. Please be Rave...or Kyin...or Calina... or hell be Monty's damn brother... Don't be Lucien... Kalore was thinking about his chances against the prince, and they weren't very high. Another snap, and Kalore was up, gritting his teeth as he had to lean against the tree for support. It was an elf, Kalore could tell, because the sound wasn't an accidental snap. Whoever was out there was doing this on purpose.

Looking around, the man shivered as he felt something get close to him, but when something finally stepped out, all the elf could do was look in shock mixed with a little horror. "Kalore Marcessa...Long time no see, babe." Oh hell no...!!!

Stepping out of the shadows came a man with hair as long as Kalore's but a totally different color. It was a pinkish color but his bangs that covered part of his face was blonde, the odd mix alarming to Kalore because only one person was like that. He gulped and tried to step back but found that he couldn't. The other man smiled kindly at him, "Kalore! Something wrong?" Blinking, the guy practically skipped over at him. "What's wrong? Cat got your tongue?"

Kalore glared, mouthing you, "You know!" The man sighed but nodded, "I do... What a shame..." Looking around he blinked, "Guns...You don't use guns..." He then understood, "You're not alone..." Kalore shook his head and made a dash for one of the weapons, but then man beat him to it, blocking him. "Come on, Kal... don't be like that..."

Kalore growled, but of course no sound came from him. The man looked at him with a sad look, "What a shame...You know people really loved your voice...It's a shame that it's gone." With a quickly movement, Kalore was grabbed and the man tried to get him to go with him. "Come on Kal! You know that you enjoyed working with me..." He looked sad for a moment as Kalore thought about that, but it didn't take long for him to retch out of his grasp and make a dive for the gun. Grabbing it, the elf shot a round into the air, the other man trying to stop him but failing. "Damnitt Kalore!"

Both men stopped dead, Kalore looking amazed at Monty while the other man just nodded in approval, "Ooh...A demon...Haven't seen one of those in a while..." This guy was either insane, stupid, or knew something that the other two didn't know. Or a combination of the three. Kalore quickly got up but soon was falling and the man blinked and helped him up. The blonde glared and hissed, amazed that he could actually make that sound. The other man grinned and smiled, "Cool! You can make a sound!" Kalore glared and searched for his notebook, inching back to Monty.

Looking at the demon, the guy smiled, acting as if nothing was wrong. "Hey! You gonna burn the forest or something?" The man was smiling, seeing to be a nice and kind man, but the reactions from Kalore showed that that wasn't true. Or maybe he was, but something had happened to them. "I'm Cylen Erine. But call me Eri."

Kalore actually held onto Monty as he nodded, but he had to mouth out, "You can't hurt him though..." Eri noticed that and grinned, "Awe...my jewel still cares!" Jumping up and down, the man clapped his hands, looking innocent and caring. Most people loved this guy, unless you had a nasty history with him. But at Monty's threat, his eyes went dark for a split second but soon Eri was once again the calm and lovable man from before.

"My business? The elf behind you is my business. He worked for me until he and the other traitor left...Kalore, you do know that if you get caught here by anyone from the main house, you die...Right?" Eri actually had a look of concern on his face at that while Kalore nodded. He knew the risks of him being here. Kalore wasn't Rave, so he didn't have the same influence. If the elf was with someone like Eri or Rave, then he was safe. On his own? Not so much.

"Well...at least you know...But yes, my business is with him...I don't know why you shot that gun, Kal...My ears hurt now." Giving an adorable pout, the man rubbed the sensitive ear. "And...please don't burn me. My ex was a pyro and that hurt like...well....hell." The man grinned but shrugged.

Head cocked to the side the elf blinked and looked at Kalore and then he looked at Monty. "Did you steal my boyfriend or something?" Blinking a few more times, Eri shrugged and then looked at Kalore. "You know why I need to talk to you. Be back tomorrow, and I'll just go to Lord Kyin's tower...I figure that that's where you are..." Without waiting for Monty to react to his comment, Eri walked away.

Kalore froze at what Eri had said. Firstly, he did not want to see that man ever again unless he had his voice and he could cuss him out and then murder him. Secondly, and most important, Kalore knew that Monty was going to kill him for that comment about stealing Eri's boyfriend. Kalore slowly let go of him, not wanting to seem like he was being clingy, but really he was just terrified about what was going to happen.
