Devri hit Lance upside the head playfully and gave a soft and distant smile, "Just because your a royal doesn't mean you have to rule something.. It just means your high class, have money and get to boss people around.." He shuddered at the idea of a true fight with his brother, something more intense and ill driven, completely unlike their usual sibling quarrels about things such as who gets the last cookie when no more have been bought. Petty things. "We won't have to fight one another, I promise. I mean hay, maybe I can practice my combat skills and be a military leader of some sort."
Akita turned hearing a splash of water and took note of Arist, "Ah, Green!" She quickly made her way over to him as he waved his arms seemingly like an idiot as if he didn't stand out enough already, "Green, have you by any chance seen Kain? He left me a letter asking for his mask back and to see me but he apparently forgot to leave a location as to where to find the old goat."

Lance's ears drooped low to the side of his head and rubbed the side of his head where Devri hit, looking way. It didnt hurt; just the thought hurt. "You dont know that... Things can happen. I've read it in my stories. Fictional or not." Out of the blue, Lance decides to give his brother a nice hug. It made him feel better by doing so. Whining a little bit, finding this the best time to actually vent out loud without having to bite at anything. "That's dangerous, Devvy. But...I'm sure it'd do a lot of good." Lance doesnt exactly lift up his hug, but tightens his arms around Devri in case he tries to pry him off somehow. "I know you're a jerk, but I still love you."
Aristocramon seemed confused at first, and then he wasnt paying attention as he tried to squeeze out some of the water from his jacket. Then he looked at her, taking off his glasses and cleaning them, taking his time to respond to her as if it werent that important. "Hmmmmm... Kain." He wipes his glasses clean several times before they're actually clean and smudge free. Which takes a while. Then he's able to put them back on. "Oh yeah, he told me to give you this." Aristocramon lifts his magical hat of random magic and puts his hand inside to pull out a large ice cube, which he hurridly tries to put on the side of Akita's face for it's sheer surprising cold. "HAH. NAW, not really. He didnt say that. I did see him though."

Devri hugged his brother back, it was different to have a moment where they weren't at one anothers throats even if it wasn't in a bad way. "Things can change.. and things will happen but we'll always be brothers Lance.. nothing can change that." Devri bit his lip trying to fight back the small tears starting to form in his eyes. Quickly he closed them tight. "It will be dangerous but it seems somthing more suited to somebody like me.." He sighed softly, "I love you too bro.."
Akita cringed at let out a small squeal at the touch of the cold ice against her skin, "H-HEY!" She pulled away from it quickly and rubbed her face to try to get the warmth back to that area which didn't take long. "Well if you saw him what way did he go? I have to kick him in the shin or something now for all of this. Not that he'll feel it. Tough hide on that bugger."

Lance looked back at their parents who were completely worn out in the office chair, Vempyremon hanging off halfway, but still able to stay on Lucus' lap. It was to laugh at, but while still in the moment, it was hard for Lance to laugh at all. It was probably the only non-fighting, friendly sibling situation they would have for a while, but he still worried. "Dont say that... I dont want you to get hurt." Lance still didnt let go, but tried to make the most of it by wanting to lean on Devri and be next to him. Afterall, they were still children.
Aristocramon clapped his hands together at his own amusement, but kept a straight face. He put his top hat back onto his head to add more seriousness to the conversation; he wasnt going to do anymore tricks for right now. "Ah, I think he slipped into some kind of alleyway. But I could be mistaken. But he DID tell me to give you this." Aristocramon reached into his pocket this time, it could be another trick for all Akita knows, but he ends up pulling out another note. "It says to meet the guy here. So I best be off. Maybe my presence is keeping him back." Aristocramon stuck his tongue out a little bit and snuck past Akita. Onatah and Tobias already left since it was getting late.

Devri peeked over at their parents as well, not bothering to try to get away from Lance or move him away, "But.. If I do it.. I can protect you. A nerd like you is gonna need it." He made a small sounds that seemed like a lame attempt at a quiet laugh, "We won't ever have to fight one another then.. and if Acheron tries anything or his kids.. we'll both be there.. We could work together.." Devri's eyes locked on his fathers eye patch, the story of it running through his mind, his father had told it to him one night up the eye patch being questioned by the young boy. "Dad was all alone.. He didn't have anybody like you and I do.."
Akita made a face at him before looking over the new note, "Green, your a tough one to get a simple answer out of." Her ears perked up as she glanced around the clearing out area for any sighs of somebody coming into it. Looking into the darkness of the alleys to see if by any chance she could see something within them not consumed by the shadows. "Nobody." She huffed, seating herself on the edge of the fountain to wait it out a bit. Maybe he would show up she figured.

Lance's focused moved over towards Lucus' eyepatch as well. He had always questioned it, but never thought to ask. "Irk...Poor dad. I would have, but I havent for fear of offending him. I'm clueless as to what happened still, unfortunately. It's like me asking why you have blue hair." There was a deep chill in his voice. Lance was still afraid of that happening; getting into a fight over nothing and losing a limb for it, especially with his brother. Lance has told no one that he's had reoccurring nightmares about Devri murdering him. In a way, one could say that Devri intimidates him, which is why he tries to act tough towards him so he isnt shot down. "I'm sure you'd make a great commander, anyway. I wouldnt have enough guts. I dont like yelling at the top of my voice at others. Well, I've never tried. But...but, feel free to ask any assistance of me."
After Aristocramon leaves, everything seems really dull and quiet. The wind doesnt blow, and the darkness of the night makes everything seem eerier, but to some, it would be comforting. Especially the nice looking half moon up in the sky; maybe this is why Kain chose this spot because it fit his best interest. But, Kain still has yet to appear at all, and it seems as if Akita has to sit there for more than thirty minutes before the wind finally blows. Then nothing...then Kain suddenly grabs Akita from behind, standing in the water fountain itself to add to the surprise.

"If you wanna know why I have blue hair look at our fathers head," Devri sighed softly and turned back to Lance, "Dad's eye patch us a sign of betrayal.. Not of his own but of somebody betraying him. He seems like he hates all outcasts but it's really just one. Just Acheron. And that's because he betrayed father.. and that's why Akita serves dad.. She thinks that will make up for the sins of her brother." A devilish smile came across Devri's face as he reached a hand up to mess with his brother's hair, "I'll be the best commander there ever was! Just you watch."
Akita's been sitting in the gathering darkness, eyes half closed as she went in and out of moments of a sleepy haze from sitting there doing nothing. Her eyes opened slightly at the soft breeze of wing but upon being grabbed she let out a sharp gasp for air, her body freezing in place, her eyes closed tightly shut. She jerked her head forward causing her mask to slip off her head, a harsh sound from the beads stopping it's fall as she remained deadly still, the skulls sharp teeth rested across the her face.

Lance rolled his eyes a little and tried to fix his hair back to the way it was, but not to be mean about it or anything. "Well, I know that. I was just saying. At least we're both gorgeous with our fancy hairs." With that said, Lance fluffed Devri's hair a little bit before smoothing his own down with some kind of cocky grin. But then he yawned, and stretched, and felt a bit woozy, blinking a couple of times before looking at Devri. "It IS late...Should we join them or stay right here? I dont know how much longer I could last."
Kain didnt know that it was going to be that surprising to grab her, but he could only guess that it would work with the still and dark of the night. Only his eyes and brighter blue parts of his clothing would show like glow-in-the-dark, but Akita wasnt really looking his way that soon since he grabbed her from behind. "Sei still." With some quick movement, Kain turned Akita around to face him. "Sie befinden sich hier." He spoke quietly as to not disturb the rest of the night and also looked Akita up and down as if he were paranoid that she brought a knife or some sort of weapon to stab him with. The water was cold now in the water fountain, but it didnt seem to faze him much.

Devri tried to muffle a yawn as he peeked over at his parents, "I think we should let them be." A moment later his mouth opened into a wide cat-like yawn, his hand quickly rising to rub his eyes, "I.. like being fancy." He felt his body get heavier as time past, soon finding himself for the most part relying on the window to keep himself propped up, his tail giving a faint twitch every so often. "I think.. I'm gunna stay right here.." Devri's eye lids dropped slowly until his eyes were completely closed.
Once she had been turned around to face Kain she slowly lifted her head, the teeth of the mask still pressing against her face, more so now that she'd lifted her head. She made a soft sound as she brought her hand up to fix the skull atop her head again, rubbing the area the teeth had prodded. Taking a moment to realize who it was by her inability to understand what they were saying she shook her head slightly, "Kain.. you know, it's really not polite to sneak up on a girl like that after dark. She'll think you're some sort of criminal come to defile her or something." Unconsciously her arm went up to run her fingers down her prosthetic arm.

"Oh whatever. I know you prefer a bed to this." Despite it being a fact, Lance decided to make himself comfy on Devri to take a little 'nap', which would soon turn into a long, eight hour nap. But Devri was comfy, his fur made Lance feel warm and comfortable, especially since Devri's belly acted like a nice pillow to lay on...
Kain just shrugged it off. He wasnt aware that men werent allowed to sneak up on a female after dark because it could be considered dangerous. He was foreign. Just in case, though, Kain kept Akita's arms down to her side by her upper arms if she had a weapon, still letting her forearms move free. Though, he doesnt really pay attention to her sheepish arm movements. "Gib mir was ist mein." His arms dont leave Akita's arms to point, but he pretty much uses his eyes to direct attention towards his mask that she's kept until now. Kain's eyes shone like laser beams with their bright color. He doesnt say much else regarding what he called her there for, alone, with no one else around, until he got his mask back and a simple confirmation that Akita wasnt going to jab him with a dagger.

Devri didn't stir aside from throwing an arm over his brother. He slept as still as his father, enjoying the moment of relaxation, something not always able to be experienced in the life of a royal. Time spent with those you love and whom love you. Your family. In sleepy and mumbled words Devri quietly uttered, "Don't tell anybody about any of this.."
Akita gave a quick and shaky breath as she stared at him for a moment, his eyes were brilliant in the darkness, yet they looked so cold in colour. "Right right.. Your mask, that's why I'm out here." She moved her hands over to her side fiddling with the piece of string that had been used to fasten the mask to the sash around her hip. The mask was clean and looked almost untouched once she finally got it untied and held it up to him. She'd taken to frantic fits of polishing it at times while it was in her care. Faintly it held the scent of her perfume. "There, now it's back in your possession."

Kain looked at the mask as if he didnt recognize it at all, which he actually did, but was being stubborn about it. He didnt take it from her, and finally moved his arms around his backside, one clasping the other, as if waiting for something. Kain waited even without saying what he was waiting for. It just became a rather dull meeting out in the middle of a water fountain which still wasnt that cold to Kain. Finally, he spoke up, "Put it on." A hand made its way from the other and pointed at his face, gesturing for her to put it on him instead of he. Kain made a small grin, but still showing his nice fangs. "I'm a Royal, shouldnt I be served?" It was hard for him to let out one of his small chuckles, because he was only torturing her. Since he was tall, he had to lean down a little bit to Akita's face to that it may be...put on properly.

Akita rolled her eyes and stood there for a moment, "And you're 100% serious about this too. Stuck up Royal goat." She huffed carefully putting his mask on him once again where it had been before. "There happy now, Royal." She let the word roll off her tongue. From her time as an outcast she had grown unkeen to serving a royal aside from Lucus, where as her days of a gyspy would have been filled with such things. "You have your mask back now. Is that all you wanted?" She tilted her head giving him a questioning look, one of her hands firmly placed on her hip.

Kain stood himself back up straight, using a finger to make sure his mask is on tight like someone would do to push up a pair of glasses. Again, he crossed his arms behind his back and glared at Akita from up above there so high. He doesnt say anything else and just looks at her. Finally, he quietly shuffles his feet in the water to try and scoot close, lean down again and whisper in her ear some. Even though there's practically no one in the area to be able to hear them speak. Kain just wanted to be sure. "Vhy do you love me zo?" Kain whispers in such a soft way which feels and seems completely different from the way he talks aloud. It's as if his voice changes to a different tone.

Akita felt her whole body go stiff, her eyes staring off seemingly past Kain. Hardly visible in the dark her face had been consumed by a red blush. "W-why?" She took a deep breath and tried to relax herself, her wings giving a slight flutter, "Why do I love you.." She closed her eyes and lowered her head before speaking in a soft and subtle tone, "You're persistent.. you go about it in the wrong way but you don't give up. You're strong, you have an amazing body, you're different in your own little way and.. somebody like you needs somebody to be there for them." She lifted her head and looked up at him with a sheepish smile, "Anyways, who else is going to look after your wound like I do?"
