Welcome to Gaia! ::

John shook his head, trying to clear it. "Bad dreams? That is an understatement. It... it was horrible." John paused a moment. "I dreamed of this place so twisted and horrible that it corrupts everything and everyone, I was there with a group of people, friends. i watched them die one by one. We were trying to save this place from who ever ruled it. Then a camp fire, sitting with these people. I had a letter in my hand, from my wife I think. She was pregnant and I knew somehow that i would never be able to her again or see my children. I had lost all hope as i withered away slowly.... the name I cannot remember the name." Said John. He had no idea why he was telling Selena this but he needed to talk to someone about it all.

"There is nothing wrong with Luther, he is just going through a difficult time. He is not afraid to remember he just doe snot know that eh can right now. Think of him like a baby bird. That baby does not know it can fly until shown by its mother." Said Sajuuk. that was the only way he could really put it that would make sense. "As for becoming human. From what i heard he was in the plane of torment so what ever he became there would have been warped and twisted. Death in that place is truly terrible. The gods probably granted him a second chance for what he tried to do. gave him a new life, new perspective. A chance to choose his life."

Raven made it up to the manor and inside. She walked the halls for a little while, wondering how things were going to go with Dorian. She did not wish any harm to come to him but would do her duty if she had to, she owed him that much, to be killed by the friend rather than suffer at the hands of Alexander or Marcus or even worse at Shadows hands. Meanwhile, Dorian had been giving this a great deal of though, on one hand she was his friend but on the other she was something that was dangerous and something that had been the cause of so much trouble for the town. Duty or friendship, the most difficult decision of his life. Dorian went for a walk to help clear his head. During this walk at the dead of night he overheard something, words of the manor. He did not like what he was hearing and at that moment his mind was made up on what to do. This group of people were up to something and heading for the manor. Dorian made a call to Raven, only to have the phone ring out. "Bugger... now i have to run up there." he made his way, hoping to get there quick.

John was confused, more so than before by the way Selena was talking. There was still too much going on in his head to think clearly about things or even to understand what was going on. "You seem... hurt Selena. What is going on?" he asked. John never expected his dream to have caused so much trouble and he was confused as to why. he had nightmares before but never like this and never had they effected someone else before. "I think I need an aspirin." his head was still thumping.

Sajuuk shook his head, "We can do nothing. Just let his memories come back piece by piece. Supporting your mother through this would be all that could be done. Interfering with Johns memories could have a back lashing effect. the pain, the suffering, the death he has seen in his old life, if it came back too fast especially given how old he was, could cripple his mind." Said Sajuuk. There were ways, to let is all flow back slowly but it was still difficult, still risky.

Raven glared at Alexander, "Why do you not ever just finish what you are saying? You keep going to call him something else other than a friend, why correct yourself? You want to call him my pet? Is that what you think he is?" Said raven. She was in a fragile state right now, the possibility of having to kill someone she had been around for a great deal of time was not pleasant to her. "I am letting things play out as they need to. I am giving him some space to think without what I am hovering over him every moment. You get further in life with a kind word than a closed fist." Said Raven. She continued to walk, not stopping, Alexander was lucky that she even acknowledged his existence right now after the stunt he pulled.

"Who left you?" Asked John as took took the pain killers and struggled to his feet. "What has hurt you?" John made his way over to the window and stood next to Selena. "What is on your mind Selena?"

"Everything will be fine, just takes some time. Your mother never properly grieved for him. First she must do that and then she can move on and accept what is happening now. That will be the most difficult part for her. The rest will be simple." Said Sajuuk. it was simple enough really but difficult for the emotions. he felt for Selena having to go through such things right now.

Raven simply shook her head, "Everything is wrong. The possibility of having to kill a friend in order to protect what we have here is not a pleasant thought. I would not consider anyone here to be a friend. I have my mentor in memory and that is all. Everyone else died during one fight or another." she let out a sigh, "but yes some of this is your fault." he said while still walking and now she was surprised that he was not following her, pleasantly surprised in a way.

Dorian finally made it to the manor gates, he was completely out of breath now. From the looks of things he had arrived first and slowly made his way to the front door only to take a seat on the steps and light up a cigarette. To think he had almost completely quit but something about tonight made him want this one. he had some time to kill, quite a bit of time to kill before everything kicked off. His senses were good for that, knowing when s**t was going to hit the fan.

Anthony awoke suddenly with a stir, he fell asleep watching the television. After looking at his watch and tutting he shuffled to the side of the bed and cricked his neck looking to the side. He slides off and walks about his room.
"hmmm...coffee."
He said to himself almost like an order...to himself?....yes. So he shuffles into his cramped kitchen and brews the pot. Yawning to reaches for a spoon and cup.
"Tsh...wonder what will happen today?"
He thought leaning on the counter looking out of his kitchen window.


A peaceful awakening (theme)

Rosaline sighed then kissed Sajuuk on the cheek"I know love,im sorry "Rsoaline shook her head "it one thing to see them. another all together to fell them as if they were your own emotions."Rosaline retorted then noded"yes it is very improtant"

Selena tried to smiled but couldnt then watched him sit down onto the cushioned bench the window still open .Selena Took a Deep breath an looked at John in eyes an answered him"It was you ....."Selena sighed then looked away "You are that man "Selena looked back at John wiping her eyes hopefully dry now but she doubted it .Selena put her hand to her head an ran her fingers thru her bangs while rubbing her forhead with the same hand

Alexander heard a knock on the door an opened it seeing the detective at the door "Detective , glad you came ,wasnt sure if you'd show or not "Alexander saw childern run hall didnt miss a beat"No runing down the hall..."Alexander sighed "kids..."shurgging moved aside"Come on in. im sure your looking for Raven ,would you like me to go get her ?"

"Everything will work out the way it is supposed to in the end. At least now your mother is dealing with her emotions, rather than keeping them bottled up." Said Sajuuk. That was one thing he knew, everything would happen the way it was supposed to when the time was right and when all players were assembled.

John did not know how to take what Selena had said. How could it possibly have been him, John had never seen her before now but something did feel right about what she had said. There was more to it beyond his understanding right now. "Okay... that seems strange but for what ever reason i do not think you are lying about it. i just do not understand how this could be."

Dorian thought for a moment, "Oh that is right... you invited me here. i had forgotten about that. Still slightly concussed from earlier." Said Dorian. he then looked over his shoulder, "Yes, if you would be so kind as to fetch Raven and be quick about it, please. Dorian did not want to appear rude or anything but he was working on a tight scheduled. he considered telling Alexander what he knew but he was more comfortable with Raven.

Anthony yawned once more and dried himself off after showering. He quickly got dressed and hid his chain in a pouch in his leather jacket, after that he grabbed his keys and opened his room's door. Stepping out into the hallway it was quiet and the sound of creaking floorboards seemed to echo forever. He sighed and closed the door locking it.
Anthony ventured downstairs and rubbed his eyes yawning yet again, he thought he would have a look around the place.
"Better find easy escape routes....just incase."
He thought to himself clearing his throat and propping the collar up on his jacket and then stuffing his hands in his pockets.
