War At The Cliffs: Lost & Found

Ala finished with Mitizimi and walked through the halls and into the main cavern not using the nether just then

Vina was pacing outside the door, casting glances at the openings, it was getting darker, and darker, and darker as she moved.

Ala frowned "don't tell me he's still throwing up" Ala said coming to a stop near Vina

"I wish I could tell you, but he went missing..." She sighed, "After Ryo said he was done, he just... went missing," She sighed and leaned against the wall, rubbing her temples.

"Missing... " she looked around "There are too many people here for him to just slip away without being seen by anyone" she says

"We asked around, nobody's seen a short haired white haired male..." She sighed,

Ala sighed "One other way out.. I'll see if he took it..." and with that there was a soft 'crack' as she entered the nether

Nothing, nada, zip, zilch, zero, no residue of any kind, obviously he'd not come this way.

"Where the hell are you Torvil" she mutters closing her eyes and concentrating to see if she could find him using the nether regardless of if it was the path he took.

She would feel a slight tugging on her chest towards the left.

Ala followed her gut feeling, or rather her 'chest' feeling and digging into the Kerrsalian heritage of the nether left the nether with a loud sharp resounding 'CRACK'

She would find Torvil working on the circle, He didn't look all that much different, really, aside from the fact that his scars were visible, he was moving with a delicate care, he looked up at her a moment and waved, then went back to work.

"You know you have your daughter freaking out right" Ala says walking up beside him

"Probably, but then, I kinda needed to get to work, and right now I'm feeling rather... energetic..." He grumbled a bit and rolled his shoulder, "Ryo had to remove a growth plate... again..."

"You could have at least told her, she even has the drow looking for you" she asks just standing beside of him "Another one? why do you keep getting those?"

"It's a genetic defect... The result..." He frowned. "There's a reason Visha wants the Cliffs to open up a bit more Love..." He sighed. "We white hairs are genetic defectives that are the results... of inbreeding..."

Ala sighs "Visha... she hasn't even shown up here recently, you know the party that your father and our son went on earlier today was captured... Your father is missing half of an arm, and a couple dozen are dead from both the capture and the rescue... Why do you think your daughter was worried..." Ala didn't know yet that her youngest child had grown

Torvil sighed. "We can't expect her to come to our rescue ALL the time love, not only that, but you think she would interfere when the Raven's mother might be watching, the last thing she would want to happen right now is a goddess fight, that would level the cliffs and kill EVERYBODY, and we don't need that..." He sighed and stopped working on the circle for a moment. "And dad... Dad will adapt, he's strong like that..." It was obvious that Torvil was a bit shaken, but he was trying to focus on work.

Ala watched him for a moment "Fine I'm disturbing you, I'll go" she turned and started walking away the cool evening air what she wanted feel over the musty nether

Torvil sighed, "No, you're not, I'm just trying to get lost in work so I don't have to realize the fact that I've lost a good amount of my powers..." He sighed and closed his eyes, "I no longer feel even an inkling of the demon, I tried to change and it didn't work..." He huffed, "Even the bound form didn't work..." He sighed. "I'm... A Dragon again... Save for the fangs... I don't know why those are still there, but they are..."

"I have no idea why they stayed either" Ala said simply, for it was truth. She wandered away from him following his line but in no hurry

Torvil kept working a for a time, then stopped, and moved to sit outside the circle, leaning forwards and sighing. "I feel... so different..."

Ala barely heard him, she glanced back at him but didn't reply

"I don't know why, I've been like... THIS, since I was born, but, now I'm not... You know..." He sighed. "I'm not able to make the dark energy anymore, I'm not able to do half the stuff I used to, and it's tearing me up inside..." He wrapped his arms around his knees, and rested his forehead on them too. "I've become almost useless... Again.."

Ala sighed and turned around walking towards him once more "you are only useless if you chose to be" she says stopping in front of him and looking down at him

Torvil looked up at her and held out a hand to her, "Sit with me..."

Ala looks at him and then consents and sits down beside him putting her hands in her lap

Torvil sighed, and leaned his head back, closing his eyes. "Right now, this is how I would have been before Silent..."

"Mmhmm" she knows this and just let him talk, her eyes were on her scarred arm, and the near white hair that fell over it

He sighed a bit, "We've been through a lot, you and I..." He looked forward. "Do you have any regrets?

"No, none. Everything we've done, everything that has happened, having kids, getting married, I dont regret any of it... not even uniting waters with you, I'll admit the changes weren't expected... but I wouldn't turn back the clock on any of them" She tells him

Torvil smiled, "Then I'm glad, I'm glad..." He sighed, "That means that we're still together, that when we leave here we can keep on being who we were before we came," He closed his eyes, "That was my biggest fear, that you would stop loving me after all of this...'

"Hard to be exactly who we were, but we'll be close to it" she looks up at the darkening sky, her mind a jumble of thoughts

Torvil sighed, "All I did is your love, and I'll be happy..." He closed his eyes and rested his head on his knees again. "I need you close to me Ala... I need you to be here for me..."

She looks at him looking at what she could see of him, see exactly what had changed, what had stayed the same

His horns and hair were shorter of course, his tail was coiled around his waist, but visible against his skin, which was heavily scared, a black spot could be seen on his back, But other than that, he looked like Torvil. His ears had remained pointed, but were not as long as they once had been,

Ala nods and looks out into nowhere "Yeah..." she says quietly, the changes pulled at her but she didn't way that, she could se what physically changed on the outside, just wasn't sure what else to expect

Torvil sighed and kept his head where it was, "I love you," He murmured, Then slowly stood, returning back to work.

"Love you too Torvil" Ala replied quietly, she didn't know what else to say and with a sigh stood up turning to go where she was before

Torvil went back to work and he kept it up until the sun began to rise, then he turned, to see where Ala had gone.

Ala had followed the circle for a time then turned off the circle and walked through the trees heading back towards the caves, she wasn't paying attention to much of anything her thoughts were elsewhere

Torvil quickly caught up with her when he was finished, moving to her side and touching her shoulder, "This way..."

Ala looked up "What?" she asked and blinked she'd not heard him walk up beside of her

"This way..." He said again, pulling her towards a cave. "Safer under ground.

"Oh" Ala turned and followed after him. she hadn't even thought about the underground

He lead her along the warren of tunnels, not wanting to draw too much attention

Ala was silent, simply following him she was glancing around, but he evidently knew where he was going so she didn't worry too much

Soon they came out of what looked like a wall in Vina's room.

"No wonder noone saw you leave" Ala mused as they exited the tunnel

Torvil nodded. "Yeah, I found it yesterday..."

"Sneaky" Ala shakes her head and wanders through into the Elders room to let Vina know her father was fine

Vina was in her chair grumbling and half asleep.

Ala walks over and places a hand on her step daughter's shoulder

Surion wanting to get away from the females had crashed on Vina's bed after she fell asleep on the chair, Ala hadn't noticed him as she had passed through

Torvil chuckled a little at his son, but let him sleep, heading out into the other room. Vina near about jumped out of her skin.

Ala shook her head and chuckled "Your father is fine" she says softly

Vina let out a weak sigh. "Good..." she huffed. "Now drag my brother out of my bed so I can SLEEP..."

Ala blinked "why did he steal your bed?" her son hadn't done that before this day so it surprised her

"He's trying to get away from all the girls, they teased him horribly." Vina said

Ala blinked and backtracked into the room where Vina slept. She looked at the form on the bed and stared for a moment and then walked over shaking his shoulder

"Wha, I dun wanna flaunt it" he mumbled into the pillow still mostly asleep

Torvil looked over and snorted a bit, shaking his head, then helped his daughter out of the chair towards her bed.

Ala laughed "Surion get up your sister wants her bed back"

Surion groaned and rolled a bit looking up at her "All right all right" he says climbing from the bed and scooping his spear up before heading for the other room

Torvil chuckled and tucked Vina in, then headed out and plopped down into a chair and closed his eyes.

Surion sat in another chair and closed his eyes.

Ala shook her head and left the room, she didn't want to sleep just then

Torvil crashed and he crashed hard.

Surion dozed back off and Ala wandered off to the main room to find rations

Ala Leaves

The reason for her leaving the cliffs was known to Surion. But he avoided talking about it. It felt odd without his mother with them, knowing she was at home rather then helping complete the task of defending the cliffs like he and his father. Surion sat quietly whenever it wasn't his turn to keep watch and stared at the pendant his mother was sure to leave with him so he could complete his task. He set himself almost in a state of seclusion, his teenage mind trying to understand where everything had gone so horribly wrong. Parts of him blamed himself for his mother leaving the way she did. Though at the same time he knew how strong minded she truely was and how little he could do to change her mind once it was made up. She'd told him to write her when he was ready to return home and she would come and get him, and much as he would never admit to his father, he hoped it was sooner then later.

Going Home

Surion stared out of the hunters cabin, his mind recalling the events of the day before. It didn't seem like it was real... defeating the ravens and loosing as many as they had over the duration of the war. He could vividly remember pouring all of his alchemic powers into the circle and it's results...

Thing now was it was time to go home, not neccessarily cause the war was over... Not neccessarily cause anyone asked him to, in fact noone had. Fact for him was he wanted so bad to get back to his search for his love. To the teen that was far more important.

He'd said his goodbyes to his grandparent's aunt's uncles, cousins and the lot... He'd far convinced himself he wasn't gonna return soon and thus had his totem rolled under his arm. "Lets go Senti" he says softly to his chittering dragon who had been a lil quiet for the past couple of days, though it hadn't helped he himself wasn't his normal cheerful self.

Beside of him his mother showed up, dressed in normal gaian and non-cliff clothing "Lets go" she said simply, she hadn't looked around just whished in right beside of him

Surion nods and closes his eyes as his mother puts her hand on his arm and with a soft 'crack' both of them are back in the house behind the shop

Visiting Dia

It'd been about 3 or 4 days since Ala had returned from the cliffs and now she was lonely, spreading her wings she lifted into the air and headed directly for Kazeha, knowing from Estra that Dia had left the isle. Soon she landed near the gates and not bothering to fold her wings walked up to the gate, half hoping her son in law was there, she didn't feel like dealing with unfamiliar persons.

As Ala had hoped, Alix was indeed working his normal shift at the gates of the growing village. Travel had been increasing the past few months as the population boomed and the village prospered and expanded its boundaries. "Mom!" His voice sounded surprised and eager. as his eyes fell upon his wife's mother. He'd not been actually looking at the faces of the passersby, merely checking their names on the scrolls, but it was a lucky fluke he'd glanced upwards and seen her approaching before actually sensing she was near. It'd been so long since he'd seen any of his wife's family actually.

"Hi Alix, I came to visit Dia." she smiles weakly, knowing she needed to let him know why she was visiting the village. "You and Lene and the kids and grandkids and I'm sure more now doing well?" she paused pulling at the rolled sleeves of her dark blue shirt. Most of her was normal in appearance but first the first time as ever seen by any Kazehan her hair was pulled up and off her neck

"We're all doing well." Alix smiled and opened his arms to give his mum-in-law a hug, she seemed to look like she needed one. "How're Dad and Surion doing? We've missed you guys. I'm sorry we haven't been able to make it out to see you. Things have just been so busy around the village these days." He sighed a little, knowing that wasn't a good reason. But it was the truth at least.

"Dia's living in the new expansion up on the mountain now. Not sure exactly where, considering she's not really someone we visit." He admitted sheepishly.

"We haven't exactly been home to visit so do not worry, Surion, well he'll be home after his task is complete...." she broke off not mentioning Torvil. Looking towards the said expansion she nods "don't be shy about her, she's my best friend, she can use company.... I guess I'll ask Dimona where to find her" she glances back to Alix

Alix nodded his head, a little embarrassed that he wasn't making much effort to get to know the people close to his family. "I'll be sure to do that. I'll let Selene know as well. Hey, you gonna stop in before you head back home?" He wasn't really picking up her hesitation about Torvil. But it might be because while he was happy to see Ala, he was still focused on his job. He spotted another traveler approaching and glanced briefly to him before looking to Ala again. "That would probably be a good idea. That or Kal, if she's at the office today." He said with a smile.

Ala nodded "I'll try, we'll see what happens" she glanced at the oncoming traveler and then nodded to Alix once more, I'll let you get back to work. her wings pulled tight against her she turned and headed into the village, which to her was beginning to look like more then just a simple village and headed towards the center debating on Kal or Dimona, and really not paying attention to her surroundings, least not completely

The village was bustling, as it usually did these days. Trade had opened up again and security wasn't as tight once news came that the demon tribe was moving away and spies had mentioned that Abaddon had abandoned his search in lieu of new turmoil with neighboring tribes. Of course, this news was taken with a grain of salt at first, tested too. But even Umaki gave his blessings on the conflict actually being over without another battle. The people took advantage of this time of peace and prosperity, for they all new it could end at any moment. The Village itself remained unchanged, with the exception of the amount of people. The Elders had decided to expand the village rather than make the current houses crammed together. There were a few new expansions, including one that moved up the mountain on the east, as well as a long lot of land to the southwest.

Ala dodged people, having grown far too accustomed with people being used to her appearance to think twice about it, not to mention all of the offspring her family had brought into the once small village. She made the familiar turns and almost on autopilot rang the bell at Dimona's home and headed up the path to the house

Dimona was, as usual, out with the dogs. A new litter of pups had been just been born a few weeks ago and lucky for her, a rare 3rd pup was born. He was a runt for sure, but a treat. She'd grown quite fond of the puppy as she cared for him. This particular afternoon, Dimona was just observing the pups with their mother while trying to keep their father outside of the barn. The sound of his barking however caught her attention and lifted her head to see if she could see the path from where she was. Shaking her head when she realized she couldn't, she got up to go see who was visiting today. She'd had an influx of visitors, mostly people wanting to just see the dogs. It was getting bothersome really. But, she never once let it be known that greeting visitors sometimes irritated her.

She paused for a moment when the figure coming up the path looked familiar. She'd not seen that face in months! She grinned and quickly headed down to meet Ala halfway at least. "Ala! What a pleasant surprise!"

"Hi Dimona" Ala greeted the familiar demoness, she looked at the noisy dog, "Oh shush, you know I'm not here to harm anyone" she lightly 'scolded' the male dog. Her attention returned to Dimona and she stopped in front of her "You have been well I hope?"

"Things have been well. I'm glad to have Dia and Asmodeus back in the village. Makes it easier to visit." She chuckled lightly and glanced to the barn. "We have some new puppies around here, so that's our big news. How are you doing!? Its been so long since you've come to visit. Since before Dia moved wasn't it?" She approached to embrace her daughter's friend.

"Been... busy, away, I came back early though" she replied "Yes it's been a while, really almost too long, but the choice was not mine. That's actually why I stopped by, to find out where she's living now" Ala returned the embrace and then stood back loosely folding her arms across her midsection tracing the fingers to her left hand over the scars that littered her right arm

Dimona frowned a little, sensing something was not quite ... right. But she didn't want to pry if Ala hadn't stopped by to actually see her. "Well, Are you familar with any of the expansions?"

"Not really no, they didn't exist last time I was here" Ala admitted this a touch sheepishly, "I really should visit more often, perhaps I'll consider even moving here. We'll see"

Dimona grinned at that. "Well, there's plenty of lovely new homes sprouting up. Some up near Dia as well. The Elders commissioned the same contractors that built Nimthirial's home, to build a whole neighborhood around the lake up on the mountain. Dia and Asy were lucky enough to snatch one at a good price." She nodded and pulled a scrap of parchment from her pocket along with a normal, average pencil and started scribbling on it. "Here's their address and directions. Basically, just head down the road till you get to the training grounds, then take a right and follow the road up into the mountain. It seems far at first but one gets used to it."

Ala looked at the directions "Far for some, not for all, thanks Dimona, I will see about finding her" /and maybe even moving here... just too many memories/ she thought to herself. Ala give Dimona one more hug and then nodded "Take care, I will see you soon" she turned and headed towards the gate again and then decided she didn't feel like walking and spread her wings lifting in the air over the village her eyes trailing the road to find the shortest path to the address she was given

Dimona waved to Ala and then turned to head into the barn to tend to the puppies. She wondered if she should have warned Ala or not about Dia's current ... condition. Shaking her head and laughing a little she decided to let her find out on her own would be best. Upon one of the many days Asmodeus was back at work, thankfully, Dia was still bored as all hell, but there wasn't much she could do about it. She felt trapped because she was sick. "Stupid bug..." she grumbled as she flopped on the couch and reached out to pick up her handheld video game to fidget with, again. She felt so run down lately... and just plain weird. The puking every so often had gotten a little better, but not much. And she just didn't understand where that damn pudge was coming from if she wasn't actually digesting anything.

Ala would find that the road was rather windy, consisting of several switchbacks that climbed the mountain with scattered, awkward looking homes along the way. Not a single one of houses looked well built. But at the same, they had a certain charm to them. The road made its way up towards the lake before it started forking in many directions leading to the many homes that had been built in the area. Dia and Asy's home did not stand out among any of the others. It wasn't lavish or large, but it did have that look like it might topple over at the slightest breeze, like the rest.

Ala, seeing the twisty road, was rather glad she'd decided not to walk it, she cast a large shadow over the land below her as she wasn't overly high up, sh counted homes, sorting out which was the right one. Even with their certain charm, Ala never did truly understand the attraction to these odd looking buildings. After figuring out which one was her target, Ala landed on the roof, her feet touched the surface with a bit of a thump and she paused to look out over the village.

As Dia was focused primarily on getting the little dwarf hero out of the dungeon on the game she played, her ears twitched slightly. She brushed at them slightly before finally succumbing to the idea that she'd have to wait on the game. Not like she hadn't played that part before anyway. She slowly got to her feet and wondered who was nearby setting off her senses. They weren't overly close, but close enough to alert her of their presence. She peeked out the front window and didn't see anyone coming up the road or walkway. Shrugging, she turned and headed for the kitchen needing refueled for her next trip to the porcelain throne.

Ala took in the sight and then walked over the roof and dropped down leaning in a bit of a crouch lightly on the balls of her feet peering silently and curiously in the window before her, which actually happened to be at the back of the house. ok, she wasn't announcing her presence, this was true, she wondered how long it'd take her friend to notice her presence

Dia pulled a styrofoam package from the fridge and went to start reheating it in the microwave before heading to the sink to get some water. She looked up and peered out the window that faced the lake on the first floor of their home. She blinked and outta shock, dropped her glass in the sink, which diverted her attention away from the window for a brief moment. "Whoa... I must dying or something. Now I'm having hallucinations... Last I checked, Ala didn't prowl around being all sneaky." she shook her head, thinking she was losing her mind. She hadn't been able to get a hold of Ala for a long time so she didn't get a chance to tell her friend that she'd moved.

Ala just about burst out laughing at the reaction and scene before her, and she decided to have a little fun, after all, maybe it would pull her out of hte depression she'd been feeling over the past several days, she never knew unless she tried. So with a moment's thought she went into a state of invisibility and watched Dia for a further moment

Dia's ears twitched again, but she ignored it and lifted her head to look out the window again. Nothing there. She exhaled deeply and gathered herself a moment before heading for the back door to see if she might have mistakenly seen something else. Barefoot, she walked slowly out onto the porch and gave the area a quick glance. "I'm losing my mind... I gotta see a doctor..." She muttered and put her hand on her hip as she leaned against the railing on the edge of the porch.

Ala slipped past the figure, she smelt something a lil out of the ordinary nah.. she couldn't be... she swore off kids... Ala thought to herself and then slipped inside Dia's home just as the microwave dinged. Dia seemed enough off in lala land that Ala attempted something she thought might be a bit daring... pulling her friends' meal from the microwave and placing it on the counter opposite from the appliance

Dia heard the microwave and pushed herself up to go get her grub. Her tail swished lazily and her stomach started growling at the promise of food to come. She headed to the microwave and noticed it was open and in a slight panic that her left over chicken might have escaped she looked around, flustered. She was alone, so she didn't care if she outwardly panicked that her lunch ran away. However, spotting it on the table only confused her more. She rubbed her eyes a bit and her ears twitched like crazy again. Now, she finally decides to stop ignoring her senses. "Asmodeus this isn't funny!" she grumped as she grabbed a fork and headed for the table.

In complete silence Ala pulls the wrap off the container completely and peers into it and swipes a small piece wandering away from the table the piece seemingly disappearing into thin air as she moved away

Dia dropped her fork and just watched ... in shock and utter disbelief that the air was eating her lunch. "Hey!"

Ala bit her lip, she tried not to laugh, but Dia was only tempting her to repeat the action and after a moment she did, just a small piece... but still....

Dia started whimpering. "That's ... my lunch." she sounded down right pathetic. But she figured this was her imagination anyway, so no need to act mature or anything. haha. When she seen the second bit get swiped she decided to put her foot down. "Uhnuh! You're not getting anymore of my lunch!" She swatted at the 'flying' bit of food and in the same motion, snatched up the styrofoam tray to protect.

That was all it took and she burst out laughing still holding the small piece of food . Dia did make her laugh, even when she herself felt down right shitty

Cradling the tray in her arms as if it was a precious cargo, Dia furled her brow a bit and glared at the floating food bit. "Sheesh... for air, you're sure rude..." she grumped. Her ears twitched again and combined with the familiar tone of that laughter... she suddenly was stricken with reality. Her face paled and her expression fell. Her first thought was that Ala was gonna get her in trouble again, but ... Ala has been gone for so long, missing actually. (to Dia) she couldn't have just popped in to prank her... could she have?

Ala's laughter calmed and she wandered over to a nearby chair folding her wings as she went and sat down, , she wanted to see if Dia sorted it out... it had been far too long since she'd done anything teasing to her friend

Dia just suddenly shrieked, dropping her tray of food, having it splatter on the floor. "ALA'S DEAD AND COME TO HAUNT ME!"

"Oh stop being so silly" Ala said quietly and shook her head sighing leaning her elbow on the table and playing with whatever she could find in front of her

Dia started sniffling and watching stuff move on the table. It sounded like Ala ... had her tone anyway. "Poor Ala..." she whimpered. "I hope it was a peaceful passing..." She sniffled again and her ears twitched. She finally got fed up and reached up to flick her own ears, flinching cuz it was stupid to do that because it hurt.

Ala stood up and shook her head "Use your senses Dia, I know you have them" she picked up a dishtowel and dropped it on her friends head covering her face then sat down again, this time visible

Dia pulled the towel off her head and seen Ala sitting at her kitchen table. She sniffled slightly. "Ala! I can see you! Oh my goddess!" She sounded excited however, wasn't convinced Ala wasn't a ghost at this point.

"Good, glad you can" Ala gave a weak smile, after all her best friend thought she was dead... She crossed her arms on the table and rested her chin on them

Dia took a step towards the table, her bare foot landing in her spilled food. A look of utter disgust crossed with 'hoshit' appeared on her face. She didn't want to look at it. But the thought of her foot being in her lunch was enough to send her over the line and head running for the bathroom. Didn't take much at all to make her queasy it seems.

Ala's eyes followed her friend and a brow raised and for a brief moment a smile flickered over her lips and then she settled into waiting for Dia to return

After a few minutes a slightly more composed Dia entered the kitchen. She was a little paler than normal, but she only needed to eat. She wasn't quite sure how to react at this point, because as she was bent over the toilet, she had a moment of insight that she'd been acting childishly. She went to get some water and as she returned to the table she smiled. "Sorry about that er... display...." she blushed a little, rather embarrassed. "Ala, what brings you here? I haven't seen you in forever!" her tone was more excited. She was happy to see her friend. And not that was thinking a bit clearer, she could focus.

"Needed company, a friendly face, that kinda thing" Ala replied after opening her eyes and watching Dia move, her tone was quiet, and somewhat subdued

After Dia sat down, she finally remembered her manners. "Thirsty? Need anything to drink or eat... well, you ate some of my lunch already..." she chuckled weakly, readying herself to stand again pending Ala's answer. "And where have you been? I haven't been able to get a hold for you in 2 forever's it seems."

"No I'm ok I ate before I left the house, as for where, well I've been at the cliffs for the last while" Ala replied sitting more upright though still leaning on her elbows.

"Ahh... shoulda figured. You guys moving there permanently or sommat?" She inquired as she leaned back in her chair, silently thankful she didn't have to stand up again.

"No, we were called to protect, theres a war going on there right now... and I'm not moving there, not sure what I'm doing right at the moment actually" Ala admitted somewhat to herself on top of to Dia

To say Dia was observant would be to tell a lie. A normal person could have picked up on some of the insinuations Ala was dropping, but not Dia. "War? and they just ... call you on the phone? I thought they had like, tons of 2 mile-high people to fight. What's a midget gonna do?" she was of course referring to Ala's shrimpy husband, whom she had not one ounce of respect for these days.

"I can turn invisible and Torvil he... he has alchemy, so does Surion.. but regardless we're all hunters of the people and when called, by special summon not really a phone, remember they have no such thing... we go" She tried to explain

Dia just blinked and stared as she listened to Ala. Most of it went over heard. The world was full of people with special abilities, and she was sure those giants had them too. She just couldn't see how Torvil would be needed, especially if she herself could whoop his a**. She snerked silently at that thought. "That sucks. So ... you guys just get bored of it and come home? Or did you escape a POW camp?" she sounded a little TOO excited at that last bit.

"Neither really, I left because... well it was uncomfortable to be there anymore... too many memories made there" Ala didn't meet Dia's gaze as she spoke these words

Dia quirked a brow, confused. War and memories and feeling uncomfortable? err... "Ala... uhm... War isn't supposed to pleasant. I'm sure seeing wounded would leave bad memories. I wouldn't want to be around that either. But I didn't think one could just like ... leave. Torvil and Surion still there?"

"I didn't mean the war Dia... and yes they are both still there, Surion will be home to his house after it's over... and Torvil... well.." she sighed and didn't continue rather she closed her eyes

Dia was completely confused. Surion .. his house? Her eyes showed the light bulb going off. The last time she seen Surion he was talking about moving out. "Ala, you are confusing me. I'm not good with cryptic riddles..."

"Do I really have to say it?" Ala stood up and walked over tot he window staring out, her back to her friend her arms loosely crossed "We seperated..." she nearly whispered

Dia blinked, a small little smile tugging at the corner of her mouth. Bout time... "oh wow... what happened?"

"More then I really want to explain" Ala told her friend and then sighed "We'll just say he's not returning to the House, or this area at all... I'm alone... again"

Dia sighed and shook her head. "Are you really? I thought you had a huge family. Surion, Selene, Torvin ... all those grandkids... and what about your friends? I thought you'd mentioned having made a bunch, like the ones you spent Christmas with. I don't recall ever having spent Christmas with you, so I can only assume they are close friends." Dia wasn't quite sure why she said what she did, but she didn't get a chance to think before speaking. She was suddenly feeling rather agitated. Not at Ala ... but in general.

"I dont ever recall you inviting me either, until last fall I didn't even know what it was, besides a time when people gathered and when I was younger I was either expelled or in a room alone" Ala frowned not looking at Dia "I dunno, I have all those people, but it's just not the same

Dia shook her head. "I wasn't complaining... I was just saying... People don't spend Christmas with strangers is all..." she muttered quietly and crossed her arms over her chest, but quickly reconsidered considering her boobs were a bit on the sore side lately. She tried to search her soul for some ounce of sympathy. She felt bad that Ala felt bad but she also considered this a blessing since Torvil was like a cancer anyway. In her opinion that is. She literally had to hold her tongue between her teeth to keep from saying 'you're better off without him'.

"I dunno, somehow I doubt I will even stay in the house I live in right now either" She turned and leaned against the window sill as she spoke, "Too many memories there too" she sighs

Dia thought for a moment. Wicked, evil thoughts really, but she had to be tactful. "Who caused the breakup? Are you guys... divorcing?"

"I think well.. it's kinda hard to explain, really there is no such thing as divorce in my people, everything is... forever, but the only way to break that bond is the goblet... but that is painful I've heard..." Ala watched Dia curious to what she was thinking

"Ala, are you aware that I am divorced?" Dia asked curiously. And that painful thing she mentioned? oh she knew that thing too.

"No Dia, I was not... when did that happen?" Ala quirked a brow unsure what else to say, after all her friend had seemed so happy, but Ala also despised Asy

"Well, since Asy and I were married according to HIS people... you know that mind link thing? The moment he found out what I did with Silver, he broke it. Which is the same as divorce. And let me tell you. That hurt like HELL! It was like having someone just literally pulled round out of my temples. It sucked." She explained.

Ala sighs, she only remembered bits of that night, and right then just wanted to forget it. "You know what... men aren't worth it, I've had my heart stamped on more then enough times in this lifetime" she sits upright more trying to cheer herself up a bit

Dia just shrugged leaned a little further back in her seat. "Yeah, most men aren't." She thought maybe Asy was different, tho, lately, she was irritated with him. But that wasn't quite isolated feelings. Lots of things irritated her lately for some odd reason. And like Ala, she wasn't really wanting to remember that night either. It was terrible judgment and caused certain feelings of bitterness even towards her friend, so she quickly pushed it out of her mind. She glanced down a little bit, noticing her growing flab protruding a bit from under her tank top. She shook her head slightly and poked at the new bulge, thinking that she might need to start exercising or training a bit more very soon.

Ala nods, she gives her best friend a weak smile "You know.. I don't know that I can stay at the house after this, I'm thinking of just letting the keeper deal with it all" she peers towards her friend , she held back a chuckle, her friend always seemed slim, now she was sliding on it. The Dragonic Kerrsalian woman was not paying attention to her own senses that day

"That could be a good thing Ala. I wouldn't want to really go back to my house if Asy and I went through what you did. Its why we moved back here. To get away from the memories at the HQ." She sighed a little and returned the smile, but noticed the odd look from Ala. She glared for a brief moment, getting rather self conscious about her pudge, but not wanting anyone to know that. She just laughed weakly to try and wave it off.

Ala laughs "you are silly" she says after Dia waved her off... then she grew quiet for a time looking thoughtful "Dia.... What do you think the Elders would think of me moving here? I mean the only other place for me is the Hidden City"

Dia blinked a few times then her eyes grew wide as plates. If she was drinking milk, it would have come out her nose. "Seriously, Ala?" Her expression showed obvious acceptance and excitement for the idea. "You want to move to Kazeha? I have been trying to get you to live here since I met ya!"

"Dia there's nothing for me out there, only Surion... And he lives on the haven grounds not at the house. I've lost heart in running the shop, that's something Torvil and I did together from the start." she sighs and looks out the window then back "You and the Kerrsalians are really all I have left, I'm not going back to the cliffs, I have no reason to"

Dia frowned a little, showing sympathy more than anything. "Ala, there's plenty out there for you still. You're very young still and the butthead is only a speck in your life. I know for sure you'll find happiness, far greater than you can imagine. And I think it could be found in Kazeha easily." She smiled warmly. She was never good at consoling people like this, especially when she hated the other party. She so badly just wanted to say 'can I throw a party?'. She had absolutely no love for the sissy-whiney-over jealous maggot Ala was married to.

Ala smiled weakly "Thanks Dia that means a lot, I think though it'd probably be a good idea to clear it with Elders first, after all I heard what happened when Asmodeus moved here without telling them"

Dia just shook her head. "I think he brought that mess on himself, mainly because he has a blatant disregard for rules he doesn't agree with." she snerked slightly. "But if you want to, that's fine. I'm sure they'd be glad to have Kal's sister here as well." She suddenly started laughing, realizing something else. "And the mother of half the village."

Ala blinked and then burst out laughing "I never thought about that" she admits still laughing. She relaxes in her seat "And yeah I imagine Kal will have some pull... Still would hate to assume"

"For you? I am sure Kal would pull all the continents back together." Dia joked, but was serious at the same time. The two did seem to have a strong bond of protection towards each other. She relaxed a bit more and tried pull herself up to sit more upright, but found it a little more bothersome than usual. Not much more, but it wasn't as fluid an action as it should have been.

Ala smiled "Thanks Dia, I'm glad to have you as a friend" she stands up and walks around hte table and gives her friend a hug around her shoulders

Dia brought her hands up, placing them on Ala's arms as her friend embraced her. "I'm glad to have you as my friend too, Ala." She spoke softly, even unsure of how else to try and comfort her friend.

Ala smiled returning the hug. Her senses finally kicking in with the proximity to Dia. A grin spread across her lips and she started to laugh, a laugh she could hardly control

Dia couldn't really see Ala's face from the position they embraced, but the laughing seemed...odd. Maybe the thought of her being the mother, nearly literally, of half the village was just that funny? " Well, I'm sure your kids and grand kids and great-grandkids and... etc. ... will be ecstatic to see you more often." she added.

Ala shook her head puling back, she looked her friend up and down "I would never have thought" she muses a smirk staying firmly in place and she pokes her friend's 'pudge' before wandering towards her seat

Dia had the most queer look on her face as she watched Ala. Her one brow raised high on her forehead. She had to hold back a giggle at the poke. Oh Goddess, I'm the Pillsbury doughboy now? "Yeah, yeah... I'm getting soggy. No need to laugh at me about it." she harrumphed, but it was more playfully than actual offense.

"Not soggy" she smirks and then drops into the chair and links her hands behind her head "Should be interesting" she sits there for a moment then reaches over and swipes a piece of her friends meal "I'll leave the rest now, ya need it"

Dia shook her head, holding the look she was giving Ala a bit longer. "Ya know, you'll get pudgy someday too I 'spect. It happens." she forced a laugh, even though she doubted Ala would ever get fat. Perfect people don't get fat, she smirked internally, allowing the look to show a little on the outside as well. "All I have to do is start exercising again and I will be fine." she nodded rather resolutely and really, REALLY wished for a topic change soon. She wasn't exactly comfortable with the idea of being fat.

"Oh I've been 'pudgy' and it went away, you'll see" she stretches "Hey you wanna go for a walk or something? After all I have no idea where in this village, which I notice is really growing I might add, I could possibly live"

Dia's other brow quirked slightly, alternating with the other one. "Yeah right...you only got fat with yer kids." She at the moment, had no idea that was the connection to what Ala was saying. Obviously thankful for the change of topic, she stood quickly, "Yeah! There's lots of new developments everywhere! Population boom and all." she winked and walked towards Ala, forgetting for the moment she still hadn't eaten her lunch.

Ala stands up and stuffs her hands in her pockets "Well then.... you better be showing me now shouldn't you" she teased her friend, man her friend... pregnant, nah not the woman who swore she'd never have kids!... the thought brought a tear of laughter to her eye'

"Sure, I just gotta go change outta my grubby clothes and I can show you my neighborhood and the other expansion. The homes are great!" she motioned to the hallway with her thumb while speaking, but then turned to head towards her room after letting Ala know.

Ala smiled and nodded idly wandering through her friend's house looking around as she waited. "This village has come a long way" she mused softly to herself as she looked around

Only a few minutes later, Dia appeared in the doorway of the room Ala had wandered into. She was wearing a rather loose top, something Dia actually never wore. "Lets grab some food while in the village?" She asked, realizing she still needed her lunch.

"Sounds like a plan to me, I've not eaten yet, not done much really... haven't really felt like it" she took in her friend's attire and chuckled inwardly "Come on lets go" she motioned the door

The Search For Nani: Conclusion

Surion sighed, parking his bike outside the estate, he was back, and he wanted to know if Nani was too, it was just one of those things, she'd been on his mind all night... Well he'd had her on his mind for a lot longer then that, but that was besides the point. He hung his helmet on the handle bar and wandered idly up to the door knocking on it, looking at the clouds in the sky as he waited

Krista glance over at the door arching a brow before turning to her daughter who was laying in front of the fireplace. Tinania had been quiet from the moment she got home. With a sigh she slips off the couch heading over to the door. Popping it open she smiles alittle "Hey Surion, wow I haven't seen you for awhile. How are you?" she kept the door partly close just so she kept Nani out of view for now.

Tinania glance over towards the door hearing the name of the guy who was with her the night she left. Sitting up she pulls her knees up to her chest as she rested her head on her arms. Even though the rings didn't seem to mean anything to her, she glance down at them trying to remember more about the man who seem to be important in her life.

Surion bit his lip and looked at her "Hi Mum, uhm, yeah I just got back, I was wondering if there was any word on Nani yet..." he was more kept up looking then the last time his mother-in-law to be had last seen him, but that was only at his mother's insistence, he would have rather just got up and headed for the Haven

Krista glance over at her shoulder before looking at him "Um, well actually...." she only stop glancing towards the young fairy sitting near the fireplace. "Hey Tinania, there is someone to see you, you feeling up to talking to people?" she was praying this wouldn't go bad. She knew Tinania didn't remember Surion, and was still unsure about everything.

Tinania stood brushing off her sweatpants then walks over to the door. Her hair was up in a messy bun, but anyone could tell she had grown. Looking towards Surion she tilts her head alittle before resting it on her mother's shoulder "Yea, maybe it will help.." she gives him a small wave then steps aside as her mother opens the door further to allow Surion in.

Surion stepped in and looked around a moment till his eyes landed on Nani, they widened a moment and a smile spread across his face as scent and sight came together in recognition "Wow... you look amazing" he said his gaze not leaving her as he took in her changes

Tinania glance down at herself then smiles alittle "I grew while I was with the fairies. They helped heal my body even further. Its good to see you again. How are you?" she placed her hands in front of her playing with the bracelets on her right wrist. Her wings fluttered alittle behind her as she tried to force herself to remember.

Krista place a hand on Surion's shoulder then smiles "We're glad to have her back. The family is hoping that with her being here she will slowly remember us all again." she was hoping Surion understood that his love was here but she still wasn't the Tinania he knew.

"You look amazing" he murmured a second time then glanced at Krista and back to Nani "Worried, dealing with war... but ok... I missed you..." he paused the words Krista said sinking in... she still didn't remember... He fidgeted a little "You were with the faeries?" well that confirmed that her friend had been right if nothing else.

Tinania nods then smiles "Yea they were really sweet to me. I was there until about three hours ago." she glances toward her mother when she turns heading towards the stairs. A worried fell upon her face wondering if she had done something wrong.

Krista pokes her nose then winks at Tinania "I'm just gonna go check on a few things. If you need me just call for me okay sweetie." with a nod to Surion she climbs up the stairs. She knew this wasn't going to be easy for Surion so she didn't want to invade the time he had with her. Shaking her head she pauses at the top taking a deep breath. She was having to learn herself how to handle this.

Tinania nods then looks back at Surion biting her bottom lip "So you were worried about me? And you were at a war?" she was trying to put all the pieces together in hopes it would make her remember. She glance towards the couch then back at him "You wanna take a seat?" she heads towards the couch taking a seat on one side of the couch then looked back at him.

Surion watched Krista leave and then walked over at Nani's invitation and pushed his bangs out of his face. "Yeah, worried that you were ok, where you went... I looked for you, tried to find you..." he pauses and bites his lip "As for war... I had to go help defend my father's place of origin. " he nods "Thats over though so I'm glad to be back" his blue eyes showed his relief for her presence

Tinania pulled her knees up to her chest taking it all in "Wow, I didn't know that many people were worried about me. I'm sorry I caused you any pain.." she stops looking down at the ground frowning. She didn't like that she was causing all this pain to people who cared about her. Shaking her head she sighs "I'm starting to wonder if me coming back was a good idea.."

"You didn't cause pain" he said hurriedly trying to dislodge that idea from her head. He turned to face her a little and reached over and placed his left hand gently atop of hers "Nani, it was never a bad idea... So many here missed you... You ... you'll remember, I have faith that you will... " he stopped, but left his hand where it was

Tinania looked down at his hand on top of her then looked back up at him "I just feel like I'm causing this to become worse. Everyone who seen me today although they are happy to see me seem to have sadness in there eyes when I can't remember who they are." shaking her head she closes her eyes "Why can't I remember who I was..."

"There would be even more sadness in eyes if you didn't come back, I'm more relieved then I am sad, I'm not sure what I would have done if you hadn't." he lifts his hand touching the bottom of her chin not forcing her to turn her head but hinting he'd like it "I promise, I will stand with you through this" his voice was soft

Tinania looked over at him smiling alittle then nods "Thank you. I'm scared I won't deny it, that I won't remember and everyone who cares about me are going to end up hating me." she closes her eyes hiding the tears as they surface. She felt like everything was coming down around her and she didn't know how to climb out.

"Noone hates you, if they are your friends... they will understand" he says softly moving his hand up to her cheek to brush any possible falling tears. "I can't hate you either..." he stared at beautiful grown up woman he loved and gave her a soft smile

Tinania smiles keeping her eyes close. She didn't understand why, but his touch brought her comfort. Laughing alittle she opens her eyes nodding alittle "I'm glad to know this, maybe I should just stop worrying so much. I'm bound to remember right?" lifting her hand she brush her bangs from her face then places her feet out in front of her wiggling her toes.

"You most certainly are bound to. There's enough people and reminders around here something is bound to trigger it. Maybe perhaps things at our home would help to... You decide though" he didn't want to rush her into remembering anything

Tinania pauses thinking for a moment about what he sad. There was a flash in her mind of a home by water but it was got just as fast. Looking up at him she shook her head "Water...or a stream..." she wrinkles her nose up then sighs hiding her face "This isn't fair, I want my life back..."

"That's right, there's one that runs along side the house" a smile spread slightly wider "You'll get it back, and I'll help you any way I can, you just tell me, call on me, any time you need" he nods a spark of happiness at her recollection filling him

Tinania looks up at him her eyes widen alittle "You mean what I just say wasn't just my imagination?" lifting her hand she closed her eyes trying to think of it again. With a wave of her hand fairy dust left her fingers to form what looked like there home. It was an image that had everything right down to her car and his bike. Opening her eyes she looked at the object in front of her "That's what I saw, but it was gone just as fast.."

"That's our home, the home your mother had build for us. It's magical, it's such a neat place, and we have many companions who live there with us" His eyes watched her dusty image

Tinania tilts her head then shaking her head she sighs "That all I saw, the rest is a big blur. Sorry.." standing she walks away from him heading towards the fireplace. Her arms wrapped around her waist as she looks at the fire dancing in the fireplace "I've been shown picture, told stories. It seems like a perfect fairy tale story. But in an instant it was destroyed" she stops talking her eyes closing as she continue to stand there.

"Do you want to go see your home then? so that it's not just a fairytale?" he asks watching her walk across the room and then he got up and followed her stopping beside her and looking into her face only thing that truly saddened him was to see the sadness in her face

Tinania looked over at him then shook her head "No, I can't not yet. I've been told of all the companions I have. I would rather not upset them when they see that I don't remember them." she looks away then swallows hard brushing the tear that fell down her cheek "I feel like I'm not here...."

"Ok, I can and will respect that. if you want.. I can tell you when the house is empty of everyone, sometimes it has been... it's up to you." he reached to her face also brushing the tear away, his hand brushing hers as it moved

Tinania nods then turns looking at him "Tell me what I was like, everyone said I was this bright child that could fill the room with laughter. Is it true?" she search his face, the suriousity was plain as day in her eyes. Looking down at his hand she looks a the ring on his finger, without really thinking she reaches out running her finger along the ring.

"You always did as long as I've known you... I think it's part of what I fell for, even when I was younger" he didn't move his hand away from her touch. He saw the seriousness in her eyes "So yes, I believe what everyone tells you is more then true"

Tinania smiles then nods thinking over what she had heard so far. Watching his hand she loops two fingers around his so her ring brushed against his "I don't know why, but I feel like I can trust you. And I'm comfortable with you, its like part of me is telling me I don't have to fear you. Even if the other have has no clue who you are." she looked up at him her eyes were now filled with mixed emotions.

"I'm Surion... just call me Sur though, the ghosts here in the Haven used to call me 'little Sur' I think they had gotten that from you" he chuckles softly at the memory. "I am so glad you feel like you can trust me" he puts his free hand atop her hand which held his other

Tinania nods then tilts her head "Little Sur don't fit, your not little anymore..." with a shrug she looks up at him smiling. It didn't come to her right away that she had said those very words to him a long time ago. With a shrug she looks around wondering why she hadn't seen these ghost he talked about.

He chuckles again "Yeah I'm not so little, which I'm glad of" he watched her gaze. He wondered just what she was thinking. "Is there anything you would like to do?"

Tinania looks over at him then shrugs "Not really sure, but your acting strange. I can see it in your eyes. You wanna do something but your holding yourself back." wrinkling her nose she pokes his stomach then pulls back walking back towards the couch. Everything was sinking in, it just wasn't making much sense to her.

"There's a lot I'd like to do, but at the same time... I have no intentions of rushing your memories, I dont know if that could hurt them, delay them... I'd hate for that to happen" He waited a moment and then followed her

Tinania arches a brow then shakes her head "Well if there was one thing you could do what would it be?" she looked up at him as some of her hair fell into her face. Blowing at it she frowns when it falls back into her face. Pulling her hair out of its messy bun she just let it hang loose. It would be the first time that anyone could tell her hair was truly wavy and now cascading down her back to her waist like when she was a teen.

"If there was just one thing I could do" he says and pauses "Well, that one would be easy it'd be to kiss you, if I only had one option right here and now. I've not been able to do that in a long time and I miss it." he sat on his knees in front of her looking at her. "Wow, your hair has grown long again... it always suited you"

Tinania lifted her hand to her hair smiling alittle "Yea the fairies told me to grow it out so I did. I like it, I guess because it just feels right." with a shrug she lays across the crouch so she was face to face with him "What were we like. I mean as a couple?" she reached out running a finger along his hand again. Her eyes were searching his face before closing as he mention kiss. Her mind flash an image of a club where she was sitting in his lap sharing a passionate kiss.

Blushing she opens her eyes as her lips parted as if she was going to say something. Yet the words didn't form.

"In the eyes of my father's people... we're married, in the eyes of your people, we are engaged to become married. So I suppose yes you can consider that a couple, I do..." He smiles softly and went quiet to wait to see what she had to say

Tinania nods letting it all sink it, Rubbing at her temples she actually lean towards him to hide her face. It was too much to process and her brain was just getting more confused. Sighing she wrapped her arms around his neck "I want to remember, for your sake and mine. I hate that I'm hurting you..."

"You aren't hurting me, I love spending time with you... I want to help you best I can... I would let it hurt me you are too important for me to allow it to." he reaches and brushes the bangs out of her face and traces his fingertips lightly over her cheekbone seeing the tattoo there remembering the rest of it.

Tinania when still as his trace his finger along the mark on her face. Looking up at him she smiles alittle "Maybe you will know why is that here and this one on my shoulder" She pulls away to lift her hair up. On her shoulder was that white panther marking. Looking over her shoulder at him she shakes her head "I see my mother has it but I'm scared to ask her about it."

"The one on your cheek... is part of a curse, it trails down your back too.." he was unaware that it was no longer all there "The panther one though... I don't know Nani, I've never seen it before" he looks at it studying it now curious about it himself

Tinania arched her brow not liking the word curse. Another image flashed in her head, but this time she spoke some elven words. The marking on her face was still there, but instead of the rest appearing they didn't. The panther remained where it was on her shoulder. Shaking her head she closed her head "Okay this is way to much right now. What did I just speak?"

"If my own memory serves me right, those are the words you always said to unhide the rest of the tattoo. But... it didn't that time" he tips his head to one side a look a curiosity and confusion gracing his features. "It's Elven, your aunt taught me some Elven too... that's half of how I know it's Elven... you told me it was Elven too"

Tinania wrinkles her nose up, laying back she looks up at the ceiling remaining quiet for a moment. Looking over at him she shakes her head "Please don't act different around me, I know your scared to do anything, I understand that. But from what I have seen in these images, this isn't you."

Surion blinked, that wasn't what he was expecting "Don't act different... Melamin..." he paused "You want how I would normally be, ok I give you that, that is something I will respect. If you want me, you get this too, cause this is how I am around you" he didn't pause he just leaned up and pressed his lips against hers

Tinania pulled away at first out of slight shock as his lips pressed against her. Blushing she smiles then runs her finger along his chin as leans back in brushing her lips against his carefully. Pulling back again she laughs shaking her head "That I wasn't expecting, is that really how you act right me?"

"Nani, you are my love, I've loved you for a long time. And no I wouldn't hesitate to kiss you, among other things... but that's besides the point. And you better believe I would defend you even if it meant my own death" He looks at her a moment and then stands up and sits down beside her on the couch leaning his elbows on his knees and looking over at her

Tinania smiles, she didn't know why but she liked what he has said. Sitting up she crawls over then slips under his arms to be held by him. She didn't understand it either, but she just wanted to be held by him even for a short while. "Thank you, you don't even know how much those words meant to me right now." she relaxes in his arms looking at the fire again. She tilts her head to the side resting her head on his upper arm.

Surion smiles sitting up as she moved. He held her close closing his eyes, feeling relaxed for the first time in a long time. "You are welcome mela, please never expect less" He was glad for the time with her, he had been certain he'd be out hunting for her once more when he returned, using Senti for the dragonette's support as he did

Tinania smiles nodding then she turned in his arms looking at him "So what did you mean among other things?" her wings fluttered alittle as she lifted her hand to brush along his cheek then through his hair. She was in shock mostly that she was this comfortable with him.

"Wellll other things... that could include spending intimate time alone... something we did even before we had moved out together... Taking you special places, spending gold on you, making you things... like this" he opened his eyes and they were green, he lifted one hand creating a water ball and then temporarily moved his other with a ball of energy to bring them together before returning his arm to around her and holding out to her a water crystal

Tinania eyes widen watching the water crystal before she looked at him "How did you do that?" she looked back at the crystal scared to touch it. Her mind flash at her again of a night after filled with passion. Then to another of her looking down at her ring. Wincing she lifted her hands to her temples.

"Just as you have powers, so do I" he put the crystal in her lap and rested the same hand on her leg "Are you ok?" he asks seeing her wince and frowning, the wince reminded him just how much pain she'd gone through before she'd left

Tinania nods alittle then "Just a slight headache, it happens every time I get to much information. I'll be fine soon." she lays her head back against his shoulder then closes her eyes trying to not pay attention to the pain.

Surion nods turning his head to kiss her forehead, he wanted anything and everything to take the pain away from her, though he didn't know if he could "I won't give you too much information I don't want to make it worse"

Tinania nods then turns wrinkling her nose as she pulls back alittle "This isn't comfortable anymore. The couch is just too small for us both." she looks at him blushing then laughs "You want to head upstairs to my room? Its got a big bed that we can relax in." she stands brushing off her pants before glancing back at him.

Surion laughs letting her move "Sure, that sounds good by me, more room to relax then this couch" he pauses, "your cute when you blush you know that?" he says and then stands up after her and stretches a little before motioning her to lead the way

Tinania wrinkles her nose then laughs "I look like a strawberry..." it was again one of those phases she use so often. Turning she heads towards the stairs only to stop to look at him. With a smile she holds her hand out "Come on Dragon Boy, let go get comfty upstairs. You can tell me more if my brain allows me to handle it."

Surion laughs at the nickname she had just dubbed him with "I will try..." he kicked off his boots as he passed the front door and followed her up the stairs "You just tell me if it needs a break" he smiles his open black shirt swishing softly side to side over one of the tops he would wear for work... He supposed with her back, he'd have to return to that soon.

Climbing the stair she hums to herself, what she didn't know was it was the female part of the mate song. It was just something to her that was a beautiful song. Pushing her hair from her face she reaches her room popping it open only to step to the side for him "So what else did I like to do?"

Surion smiles hearing the familiar tune, after entering he shrugged off the open shirt and tossed it on a nearby chair "Well lets see, you like to sing, dance, go to the club, spend time with your friends...." he says turning to face her he was trying to keep to simple things at that time

Tinania smiles taking a seat on the bed "that would explain why I was always singing while I was with the fairies. I never dance though, but I did want to when I heard the music" pulling the jacket off she fixes her spaghetti strap shirt making sure it doesn't slip down.

"Nani, you are a terrific dancer, you let the music just take you over, and I love watching it happen, especially up on the platforms at work" he smiles and sits on the side of her bed watching her movements

Tinania looks at him laughing alittle before she shook her bed. Laying down on her side she smiles "Wow I can see why everyone loved me." laying her head on her arm she frowns alittle "How log do you think it will take for me to be normal again?"

"I can't predict that Nani, I honestly can't... But I have faith in you that you will succeed" he turned and lay on his side behind her propping his head on his hand with his elbow holding his head up.

Tinania moved closer to him closing her eyes, she didn't say anything she just thought over everything she learned today. She wanted to be whole again, she wanted to know what it was like to be loved and have fun again. Sighing she allowed the single tear to fall only because she was getting frustrated about everything.

Surion let his automatic reaction cause him to reach over to her cheek and gently wipe the tear away "I love you Mela" he says softly in Elven, he had no idea if she's understand or not but he felt he had to say it

Tinania turned looking at him, smiling alittle she brushes her lips against his then lays her head back down only to hide her face. She curled as close as she could to him, she just needed to know she was safe. Looking up at him she tilts her head "Stay with me? Please?"

"If you want me to stay... I most certainly will. Would have asked you anyways.. " He smiled purring softly "I am so glad you are back Nani" he says and wraps an arm around her waist holding her close. After a moment he kisses her forehead softly

Tinania smiles then yawns alittle closing her eyes then wrinkles her nose up. Purring alittle herself she nods "Me too Sur.." closing her eyes she rest her hand on his chest running her fingers along the scar pattern "You didn't get any new scars did you?" being half tired she didn't know she was asking him something that was apart of her memory that should be gone.

Surion paused for a moment before a smile spread on his lips, he'd said nothing bout scars, which meant to him she remembered it on her own... "No... no new scars this time..." he paused and pulled the shirt off letting them visible "See?" he says settling in beside of her once more The scars came to light all over his torso disappearing under the round black nodes and reappearing on the other side on his back but otherwise unchanged

Tinania sits up looking over the scars before she tilted her head looking at his back. Arching her brow she shook her head "Those weren't there before" she runs a single finger along one of the node. She had once again without knowing it pointed out something from her past that seem to be lost to her memories before.

Surion shivers slightly and chuckles "Nope you are right Mela, they weren't, they are semi new" he looks up at her a smile and a look of pride in her on his face, Visha he loved her, he knew he couldn't be dreaming, so to him it was heaven

Tinania nods then laughs alittle "Just like your horns aren't they. You shiver when I touch them also." shaking her head she lays back down yawning again. It seem that when she wasn't trying to force herself to remember the memories would slowly come back on there own.

"Not quite as bad as my horns, but similar, they are nodes actually, I once told you what might happen if I became too stressed out. Well those are a part of the result, but I dont mind... " he relaxes and watches her he had a feeling he'd do that most of the next several hours

Tinania nods closing her eyes as she purrs alittle "Good to know, although I like you horns better. Your reaction when I squeeze them is far better." her voice soften as she seem to slowly drift off to sleep. Her body was forcing her to sleep as it was drain from everything she learn that day.

Surion chuckles softly and watches her for a time then closes his own eyes drifting into a content sleep of his own

Return of Memories ~ 1

Tinania was already awake , it was early night as she sat out on her balcony looking up at the sky. She was just watching the star and listening to the calm coming from the land around her.

She was thinking over everything that she had learn before she had fallen asleep. Each piece of information she was thinking over carefully then trying to fit it into this puzzle in her mind.

Surion stretched and opened an eye he rubbed the sleep out of them and rolled out of the bed and padded barefoot across the room and stopped behind her. It was cool but it wasn't anything he wasn't already used to. He stuffed his hands in pants pockets and he looked over her shoulder "Hi Melamin, you all right?" he asks. He still had no shirt on and he had not bothered to hide the scars littering his torso

Tinania looked over at him nodding "Yea I just had a nightmare while sleeping and I decide the cool air might do me some good. Did you sleep well?" she tilts her head smiling alittle before she looked back up at the sky. She didn't understand what she had seen in the dream but she woke up trying to breathe. It had been the same dream that was haunting her for weeks now.

"I slept as usual, quiet and empty... Do you need to talk about it? or are you wanting to think about it on your own?" he stepped further onto her deck and turned and leaned against the rail so he could face her...

Tinania looks over at him biting at her bottom lip before she looks back up at the sky "I'm running in the woods from someone. I don't know who though, he attacks me, and stabs me.." she stops shaking alittle "When I fight back the next thing is he pushes me, then I always wake up.. I don't understand what happen.." she places her hand on her chest breathing alittle hard just from the thought of the dream.

Surion stared at her for a moment "You are remembering what happened the night you lost your memories" he tells her gently a slight frown on his face "it was a nightmare in real life too... I'm so very glad your family found you"

Tinania looks over at him arching a brow "You mean that really happen? Its not just a nightmare..." she felt sick to her stomach as she shook her head. She almost didn't want to believe what he has just said.

"Unfortunately I mean it... Tell me Nani.. can you fly now? I mean with those wings?" He had a thought, perhaps she'd like it perhaps not but he had to try. He had to try and calm her. He tips his head to one side peering through the darkness at her

Tinania glances at her wings then back at him nodding "Yea, but not as well as I would like. I almost crashed a few times when I was learning with the fairies" she laughs remembering how if Pielle hadn't caught her she would have smashed into a rock.

Surion nods and ponders this for a moment, "Would you like to go for a fly now? I know a pretty place we could go sit, and you could watch the moon..." he paused and watched her for her reaction "I'll catch you if you have problems... and there wouldn't be anyone there for you to have to worry about remembering"

Tinania bites her bottom lip before nodding "Alright, I guess it couldn't help getting away for a bit." her wings fluttered alittle behind her before she lifted off the ground alittle.

Surion smiles and nods his wings sliding out and unfurling from his back "It's a little ways, on my... mother's land." he holds a hand out to her and stands upright more so he wasn't leaning anymore

Tinania watches him her lips parting alittle as she see the wings just seem to appear. Laughing she just floats there in the air nodding "Alright, hopefully I'll make it all the way there."

"I'll help you if you need help..." he takes ahold of her hand and flaps his large black wings and lifts into the air "It's a lovely night... so there shouldn't be a problem" he hoped at least...

Tinania nods then lifts alittle higher into the air herself. Closing her eyes she feels the breeze brush against her skin. She wasn't going to admit, but she like the feeling of being in the air. She felt free and alive.

Opening her eyes she nods "Lead the way.."

Surion pulled her higher into the air gently and then turned to head toward the Balan land, the place he had in mind was the water falls, He thought it might be rather nice to sit atop them and look at the night sky

Tinania followed him remaining quiet as she watch the land below her, shaking her head she closes her eyes for a second "Water...." it was in her mind another picture only she could also hear running water.

Surion smiled, he never let go of her hand, so that he could make sure she didn't fall. After a time the waterfalls were below and he motioned her to land atop of them and he headed that direction himself. "Water, one of my very favorite things" he chuckles

Tinania nods then moving downward she lightly lands on the rock, it was only then she felt the rock under her foot loosen. Gasping she stumbles backwards off the rocks.

Surion tightens his grip "Nono, not gonna let that" he says to himself more then anything spreading his wings wide to catch the air as he attempts to put his other arm around her waist to catch her "Careful Nani, don't want to fall"

Tinania wraps her arms around his neck hiding her face against his neck. Looking down she laughs alittle shaking her head "That wouldn't have been good." looking at him she smiles "Thank you.."

"I told you I'd protect you... defend you.. and I meant it..." He pulls her back and doesn't let go until she is safely settled on the ground "It's pretty up here... I thought you might like it too... " he didn't want to say anything about past trips there...

Tinania looks around smiling as she stepped away from him "It really is pretty, the sky from up here is amazing." she looks down at the lake looking at it for a moment before she whisper to herself "Lovers in the lake.." shaking her head she turns towards Surion "Thank you for bringing me here.."

"You are welcome Mela... this is a sorta hidden place on the Balan land... it's always quiet and never anyone here... especially now..." He settles and folds his wings against himself looking a the sky. "it kinda gets one away from all the busy-ness round the estate and shop and other places"

Tinania nods still standing as she lifted her hands above her head. Turning she looks at him tiling her head "Were there ever lovers down at that lake?"

Surion chuckles "Yeah... my parents..." he pauses "and us" he looks down at the water, "we've been here before, more then once... my father created this landscape." he looks to her a smile playing at his lips.

Tinania looks down towards the pond then shook her head sighing "We had fun didn't we" she turned to look at him a frown coming to her face "I'm sorry, I know I should be enjoying this, I just can't though. I need something to take my mind off of everything going on this moment.." she turns to look back down at the waterfall

"Don't worry about it, I didn't bring you here to try and remember things... I brought you here to try and relax, cause it's one of the prettiest places I know of that wouldn't have people around" he reaches over and places a hand on hers

Tinania looks down at him then nodding she takes a seat next to him just watching the sky. Licking her bottom lip she glances over at Surion from the corner of her eye. She wanted so much to remember just for him.

Surion hums softly and relaxes a content look on his face. He looks over at her as she sits "Nani, I'm not going to rush you, I will stay by your side and help you though..." He folds his wings completely away and pushes his bangs our of his face

Tinania nods then leaning over over brushing her lisp against his. She didn't understand why she did it, it just felt like something she had to do. Pulling back she blushes alittle "I know.."

Surion purrs a little feeling the warmth of her lips, when she pulls away he lifts a hand and gently runs it along the side of her face." You are very beautiful Nani" he nods looking at her, he couldn't get over how she looked now that she was grown

Tinania blushes then wrinkles her nose up "I still look the same, my hair just grown that is all." with a shrug she leans back on her elbows watching him, with a smirk she crawls over him, then sits in his lap.

"That's just it though Nani... you always have been beautiful... and I know that will never change... but I have to say it... it's as simple as that." Surion tells with a serious look to his face

Tinania giggles shaking her head as she poked his stomach lightly. Seeing the serious look on his face she arches a brow "Serious don't work for you. Aren't you suppose to be playful?" she had without thinking mention something that she would only know from her memories.

Surion stares at her for a second and then bursts out laughing "No I suppose it doesn't, lets see what can I do that's silly... oh I know" and he reaches over and tickles her side keeping the playful look on his face as he does

Tinania squeals with laughter trying to pull away, but instead she goes for his side tickling him "No fair!!" she was giggling as she squirm to get off his lap.

"All's fair mela!" he says laughing and tickling her even more trying to dodge her tickles at the same time but failing

Tinania keeps giggling giving up her tickle attack. Panting she pushes as his chest to get away from him. Without really thinking she lifted her hand to wrap around one of his horns as she kept giggling.

Surion's eyes widen and he stops his tickle mid-tickle 'oh Visha...' he thought to himself, it'd been far too long since that had been done and he'd had his brothers potions "Uhmm" he pauses his voice a lil squeaky "Mela..."

Tinania looked down arching a brow slightly as she watched him. Her hand didn't move "What wrong Surion?"

"Mela..." he licks a lip "I know you dont remember... but... horns are sensitive.. and uhm not in a painful way" he says doing his best to control the urge that was now building inside of him

Tinania looked at his horns before running her hand lightly over it. Pulling her hand hand away she places it in her lap looking down biting her bottom lip. She wasn't sure what she had just done, but for some reason she wanted to do it again.

Looking up her eyes flashed emerald for a moment as she lifted her hand to run a single finger over the horn again just watching him.

Surion took a rather deep breath and tightened one hand into a fist "Mela... " he bites his lip and then opens his eyes and reaches the other hand around her pulling her closer, and without a word he kisses her, pouring his love into the kiss

Tinania gasp under his lips, but instantly she moved her hands to rest them on his chest. She returned the kiss without any shyness this time. Pulling back she breaths in slowly looking into his eyes trying to figure out what she didn't to cause that.

Surion looked into her eyes when she pulled away, "Visha Nani... there is just so much about you that makes it hard to control myself... You just have this way of arousing me... which makes it even harder..." he just held her just watching her wanting to see emotions

Tinania blushes licking her bottom lip then looked back at him, her eyes were pure emerald green but she wasn't acting on it at all. Lifting her finger she runs it lightly over his bottom lip "What am I doing?"

"Teasing me something horrible.. making it more and more difficult to control the urge to take you" He replies never breaking eye contact, he saw the imp surface and smiled. he kisses her finger holding her close

Tinania blushes alittle as her fingers lightly run along his stomach in a slow caress. Her eyes darken even more which for her eyes was something new. Leaning up she brushes her lips against his horns then looks back down at him "I'm sorry...."

"Something tells me you aren't really...." he says panting softly and then tipping his head kisses her neck under the chin purring loudly. his tail twitching behind of him

Tinania shivers then pulls away her cheeks were rosy. Licking her bottom lip she looks down at him "What makes you think I'm not?" she was resting her hands on his side, and although she wasn't meaning to, her nails were digging into his skin.

"Your eyes..." he replies simply growling softly and watching her. He licks his lips and nods slightly letting a stray strand of hair fall over his face as he watches her in the moonlight

Tinania eyes widen then she shook her head "What about my eyes?" she didn't know that they were to the point they started glowing the emerald color. The imp wanted free, but she was controlling her without knowing it.

Leaning forward she brushes his hair from his face, her hand once again brushing against his horn.

"They are green, deep emerald green, the imp is in there, wanting free..." he knew about the imp and smirked a little, at least until she brushed his horn again. "Mela.. " he didn't know what to do... he didn't want to do something that may scare her since she barely remembered him though not what their relationship was, but he was fighting himself as much as she was controlling the imp

Tinania frown then lean back closing her eyes as she brought her hands up to cover her ears. The imp was trying so hard to get free that it was causing more pain.

"Nani I have to cool off..." He says after a moment "Or I'm going to have to do something to relieve this urge..." He tries to maneuver her off his lap, shifting to deal with the uncomfortableness in his pants.

Tinania doesn't move, she couldn't she was in that much pain. Feeling him move under her caused her to loose balance. Reaching out she wrapped her hand around his horn again as the other rested on his lower stomach.

Surion gasps wrapping his arms around her and letting himself tip back.. 'control, must control' he thought to himself though he was close to failing "Mela" he says having a feeling she was hurting, she'd told him about her headaches the night before. He wished to Visha that he could heal that pain... take away her pain

Tinania squeeze his horn alittle harder before she shook her head whimpering "Something trying to tear my head apart..." she looked up tears running down her face, her eyes were a bright emerald green and wouldn't stop glowing.

"The... imp..." he gasped pulling her close and kissing her before breaking the kiss and opening his eyes looking up at her his eyes shifting color to green as he created water on his hands, he knew only one way to push the imp down, though he didn't know if it'd work as he put the cold wetness in the small of her back

Tinania screams against his lips when the cold water touches her back. Pulling back she shivers crawling away from him. She wasn't expecting that and whatever this imp was didn't either. Breathing hard she keeps her eyes closed as the pain starts to die down.

Surion pants closing his eyes and letting the water go away as his eyes returned to normal. "Love you Melamin" he whispers in elven and slowly sits up. it worked for her, but it hadn't for him "I'll be back in a moment I promise... please dont leave" he says and then stands up and dives into the water below

Tinania pulled her knees up to her chest panting as the pain didn't seem to let up. Her eyes although she was hit with the cold water were still emerald green. Placing her hands back on her temples she tries to stop herself from crying.

Surion as promised was back in a matter of a minute wings spread as he landed, "Nani?" he asks kneeling beside her and looking at her with concern before leaning his forehead against hers closing his eyes and praying to Visha to let his own powers to ease her pain

Tinania wrapped her arms around his neck pulling herself close. Sure enough the healing powers were easing the pain out of her mind. Keeping her face hidden she continue t shake "What happen to me...?"

"I don't know love, I don't know... Something with the imp I am guessing.. " he says to her not opening his eyes and not taking focus away from helping her. "I wish I could take all the pain away... all the sadness and tears..." he held back his own tears, he hated to see her in pain

Pulling away she runs her finger along his cheek "I could feel this imp, she was angry that I wouldn't let her free. I wasn't doing anything though." she swallows hard then shivers shaking her head "I really am broken..."

"She's powerful, and at times a lot of fun... she's very... easily aroused, much like the urge my kind gets, I dont believe you are broken, but you just have to find yourself" he says and opens his eyes looking at her

Tinania looks up at his eyes with her emerald green eyes. With a nod she looks down "I wish I could be with you the way I'm suppose to be. I know this isn't easy.." she stops biting her lip hard enough to draw blood.

"You know what though Nani... I love you enough that I will stand with you no matter what" his eyes look at her lips and he lifts a finger to wipe the blood from her lip "Do you want to stay? or do you want to head back?"

Tinania shakes her head "I want to stay, I don't want to head home yet." looking up as he runs his finger along her lip she bites at it lightly pulling it into her mouth. Her eyes never leaving him.

"Then we'll stay, spend time together" his thumb running along her face near her mouth as she bit his finger. He loved her so much, there wasn't anything he wouldn't do for her. He shifts position and pulls her into his lap so she was facing him

Relaxing in his lap she lets his finger fall from her lips. Looking down she closes her eyes just allowing herself to enjoy the moment. Her hair falling around her face as she hummed to herself once again. It was the same tune from when she was walking up the stairs at home. Her wings fluttered alittle behind her as the breeze brushed them.

Surion wraps his free hand around her waist closing his eyes and listening to her for a moment before joining her humming the other side of the song, he was enjoying the time and the feeling of being close with her

Tinania smiles then open her eyes to look up at him "This wasn't as bad as what I did to you on Valentines Day." she pause shaking her head lifting her hand to move through her hair "Okay where did that come from?" she looked back up at him slightly curious as to why she remembered that and why it had a connection to her.

Surion chuckles "No... not as bad, and as for where, I think memories are starting to slowly surface, a good sign I think." he pauses and opens his eyes "Though I would never take back a single moment of that day... or any day with you"

Tinania blushes then placing her hands on top of his legs close to his inner thighs she runs her fingers slowly in a circle motion "What happen that day?" she stops thinking about the memories that were coming back. A small smile formed on her lips, she was happy that her life seem to be coming back to her.

"Well I woke you up, and surprised you with some Elven.. I gave you a gift, and then we spent the day together going all over the place, including some intimate time in a rather... unexpected place..." he gives her a coy grin "and you teasing the hell out of me at Durem Depot.. it was a wonderful day though... one of many I'll never forget"

Tinania blushes a dark red shaking her head "Okay I can understand the imp now. I am really that bad, but in a good way?" with a giggle she leans forward brushing her lips over his chest. She was curious if she could get him the way he was earlier. She knew she shouldn't, but part of her was saying it was something she would do.

"Yes, very much so, but you know.. I'd never ever ask you to change that" he purrs softly feeling her touch "Something tells me you never would, even if I wanted you to" he lifts a hand almost on autopilot and ran a finger along her back brushing against the base of her wing as he moved

Tinania looked up at him licking at her bottom lip for a moment "Why change something? Everyone seem to like who I was." with a shrug she lifted her hand to run through his hair. Her thumb brushing at his horn "And if I'm that much fun, your right I won't change for anyone including you."

"You are right... we do like who you are.. I love who you are" he looks into her face, into her eyes his purr growing louder with the brushing of his horn. "I love you... period" he says and kisses her softly, he was glad the closeness hadn't scared her off with her lack of memories of their past.

Tinania smiles against his lips as she moved her hand to trail a few of her fingers along his horn. Pulling back she tilts her head to the side. He had said the words to her, and they reach inside of her wrapping around a part of her she didn't seem to have.

Biting her bottom lip she looks down closing her eyes. A simple tear fell down her cheek and she didn't even notice it.

He savors the kiss she shares with him until she pulls away from it, a low growl emanating from her touch. When he sees the tear he kisses her cheek right on top of the tear keeping the tear from reaching her chin

Tinania open her eyes shaking her head alittle as a few more tears fell "I'm sorry, I don't know why I'm crying." she falls quiet hiding her face with her hair.

Surion pulls his hand from behind her and parts her bangs apart unhiding her face "It's all right, Nani honest, to me you are beautiful even crying. What's important is you dont bottle up what you are feeling." His eyes shift green and he gathers the tears before they fall

Tinania looks up at him then nods as she wraps her arms around his neck hiding her face against his chest. Breathing slowly she closes her eyes "The moment I start to feel better I remember I can't remember any of this..."

"It'll come Nani, given time you'll remember, and I have all the time in the world, if I have to call to work and say I need more time off I will... You hold a priority to me" He tips his head forward resting his chin lightly atop her head his fingers combing through her hair as he held her

Tinania nods then looks up at him "I love you, I don't know if I should say that but it feels right." she looks back down as the tears continue to run down her face.

A smile spread on his lips and he watched her for a time "I love you too, so very much, and I've missed hearing those words from you so very much" he brushes the tears from her cheeks again

Tinania hiccups then smiles through her tears as she tilts her head towards touch. Laughing alittle she shakes her head then lays her head on his shoulder "Was I this emotional also?"

"Sometimes... sometimes you were, often you weren't though." he chuckles a little "but it's part of what makes you who you are" he kisses her cheek where his fingers had just left

Tinania wrinkles her nose up then shakes her head "How were you able to handle me?" she laughs alittle then pokes him lightly "Between the teasing, the tears, the imp, and the anger I must have been a pain" she didn't even notice she had mention her anger when neither of them had said anything about it.

Surion laughs "well to be honest... pain or not I'd have to say that it doesn't matter to me" he watches her, still taking in her changes

Tinania looks down at herself arching a brow before she looks up at him "Is there something wrong? You been just staring at me all day..." she looks back down at her shirt to see if she got anything on it.

"Nothing is wrong, I've just missed seeing you, you are so beautiful, and it's just that I was sure when I got back from the cliffs I would have to search for you..." He says with a seriousness behind his voice

Tinania bites her bottom lip then looks away "How long were you looking for me?" she didn't look at him. The thought of causing anyone any pain was hurting her enough as it was.

Surion remains quiet for a time then puts a finger on her cheek to turn her head back "Nani, I searched for you from the day you went missing till I got called to war. And I wouldn't have stopped, ever... not till I found you" he smiles softly at her "Cause I love you, and you are the most important person in my life"

Tinania looks down at her lap thinking over what all he had said. Without really thinking about it she looks up at him "Weren't we suppose to get married in the Summer?"

Surion nods "Yes, we are, our mothers were going to have to get together to figure out how to meld all the different customs together." he brushes his fingers along her cheek

Tinania thinks it over closing her eyes when she felt his finger brush her cheek "A beach wedding...." she didn't think about that saying that she brought up more from her memories. Smiling she turns alittle so she could rest her side against his chest.

"Yes, and you will be the sunshine" he chuckles softly and runs his fingers through her hair, he was glad to hear her memories slowly returning as they sat there

Tinania arches a brow looking at him before she shook her head "I don't think so..." sitting up she arched her back glancing towards the water.

Without so much as a thought she pulled her shirt over her head leaving on her bra. Standing she slips her pants off her body before running toward the edge. Without a thought she leaped over the cliff down to the pool below her.

Surion purrs watching her, once she'd disappeared over the edge he stood up and shed his jeans leaving himself in his boxers and walked over to the edge and jumped in after her his eyes emerald green even as he touched the water

Staying under the water for a moment she surfaces wiping at her eyes. Looking around she looks up towards cliff she tilts her head "Surion? You coming to join me?"

Surion surfaces behind her "I'm already here Nani" he chuckles pushing the hair from his face as he smiles and watches her for a second then splashes her playfully.

Tinania gaps then laugh as she was splashed, turning she looks at him smiling "I thought I heard you, but I wasn't to sure." kicking her feet alittle she pulls away from him as she sink back under the water only to get her hair out of her face.

Surion laughs "I'm here" he kicks to keep afloat and swims around her and then sinks under the water after a few seconds to watch her there

Coming back up for air she smiles shaking her head alittle "Okay this feels good. I had been so tempted since we got here to dive into the water..." looking over at him she smirks the splashes at him alittle.

Surion laughs splashing back "I love the water, I always have" he tries to dodge the splash and fails. and sputters a little and splashes her back "I am going to get you"

Tinania giggles diving back under the water swimming away from him. Glancing back she swims faster heading towards the other side of the lake to hide.

Surion laughs swimming through the spring with her, he loved the water and moved through it. "I will get you Nani, no escape"

Tinania resurfaces hiding behind a bolder, She glance out then hid again relaxing as her fingers ran over the surface of the rock. Looking up she watches the stars smiling.

Surion swims for a bit then skirts the rock in the other direction and comes to a stop beside her "Found you" he says with a chuckle and then looks up to see what she's looking at "it's a pretty sight" he muses "so peaceful and calming, I watched them at times from the cliffs, wondering if you were watching the same thing"

Tinania looked over at him smiling "I use to look up at the sky during the night while I was with the fairies. I often wondered if the other part of me was out there trying to find me." shaking her head she looks back to him "Weren't you scared while you were at the cliff that you wouldn't come back?"

"Yes actually I was, we lost so many people, one day we were patrolling the tunnels... we got ambushed... it didn't help they had a shaman with them though... by the time it was over and more of the hunters came and rescued us, we'd lost about two dozen hunters" he told her of this, omitting the fact that the Shaman had in fact attacked him as well

Tinania eyes widen then she shook her head "How can people do that to one another. Do they not know it does nothing but cause pain." she looked away looking down at the water.

She was shivering, the thought of him not coming back scared her even now with him right next to her.

"They aren't people, they are Ravens... or were, we kinda killed them all ... we had to, they were trying to take over and kill all of teh cliffs and the dragonics there" he sighs "But I'm back and I'm glad it's over"

Tinania nods then looks at him again "I'm glad your safe." falling quiet she pulls herself up onto the boulder not even noticing that her bra and panties were nearly see through.

She watched the sky then looking around them.

Surion turns crosses his arms and leans on the boulder and looks up at her "I'm glad of it as well. Dad stayed there, he's not coming back, mom is back, but now she's talking about moving to the village where Aunt Dia lives" he was rambling, so used to just telling her things that he didn't even think twice about her probably not knowing or remembering who half those people were or where he meant

Tinania looked over at him smirking then shakes her head kicking her feet so she would splash him "Okay time for you to loosen up and act normal Surion. I don't like this serious you. Remember its me?" she lays back on the boulder looking up at the sky again, she still hadn't notice that her undergarments were see through due to the water.

Surion laughs "Okay okay" he climbs out of the water and sits next to her on the boulder, he purrs loudly and brings a finger to her belly button and starts drawing spirals around it getting bigger and bigger with each loop

Tinania shivers then watches his finger run along her stomach. Looking up at him she smiles "You having fun?"

"Yes I am" he grins and walks his fingers up her torso shifting his gaze to her face before leaning down and kissing her as his fingers 'stepped' over the center of her bra walking to her neck

Closing her eyes she returns the kiss her body remain still as his finger moved along her torso. Pulling back from the kiss she licked her bottom lip "Tease.."

"I tease, you tease.. it's all fair" he says looking down the few inches to her. "would you rather I didn't tease?" he smirks slightly with this question

Tinania wrinkles her nose the shrugs "I just want you to act like yourself, not someone who gonna treat me like I'll break." sitting up alittle she turns to lay on her side looking down at the water.

Surion didn't reply for a moment "do you want me to be like I completely would be normally? Like I would be if you didn't not remember me?" he had to ask, he didn't know what else to say, his tone was normal it wasn't uber serious and it certainly wasn't joking

Tinania looks over at him nodding "I don't want people feeling like they have to be different just because I'm without memory. Its confusing me..." sighing she lays her head down looking at the water "Everyone at home when I show up into the room stops what there doing just to help me. There is no way that happen before." she fell quiet not really sure what to say anymore.

"Then I will try to be a constant in your life, something... normal to the way things were, if you want me to stop being such, or I do anything that bothers you I leave it to you to tell me" he says with a nod and before she had a chance to reply to his statement he presses his lips to hers once more his hand that had been talking up her torso running along her side coming to a rest on her hip

Tinania gasps against his lips her hands moving to rest on his waist, her first thought she wasn't sure what to do. Biting at his bottom lip her nails dug into his skin as she moved closer to him.

Surion broke from the kiss pulling away a couple inches then looking down into her eyes he smiles at her "Love you Mela" his tail moved to one side resting atop one of her legs

Tinania smiles up at him then giggles as his tail rest on top of her leg. Wrinkling her nose she lifts a finger to run it along his cheek. Leaning up she brush her lips against his before laying back down on the boulder,

"You are cute when you do that" he says with a laugh and returns her kiss his hand sliding up her side to rest beside her chest his thumb stroking the side of her chest lightly, he doesn't break his gaze from her eyes

Tinania blushes then shakes her head alittle, she moved alittle under his touch giggling alittle "Hey that tickles..."

"That's the point" he grins not stopping his thumb's movement and he kisses her once more. "After all, you wanted me not to treat you like you were going to break"

Wrinkling her nose up she tries to get away as she giggled "Can't you do that another way other then tickling?" she kept giggling as she reached up in hopes of catching his hands.

"Well I could make it less ticklish or I could change what I'm doing all together, " he stops moving his thumb on the side of her chest and smiles down at her. "It's up to you" he kisses the tip of her nose

Tinania out of no where started purring when he kissed her nose. With a shrug she closes her eyes "I'll let you decide on what you think is best for me at this point. Although I must say this boulder is uncomfortable and I'm getting cold." she was trembling just alittle as the breezed brushed over her body "Any place we could go?"

"We could go back to the haven, we could go to a little cabin which is yours and your friend's, we could go to our house, we could go to my mum's house, up to you, you pick" he sits up taking her hand to help her sit up as well

Tinania wrapped her arms around her waist as she sat up "Which is the closest and keep us away from people?" her teeth started chattering which for her wasn't a good sign.

"Only person who would be at mums house is maybe mum, and it's the closest" he frowns hearing her teeth "Come on lets get you warm" his wings unfurl and spread wide as he moves to scoop her up and carry her to where they had left their clothing

Tinania nods then closes her eyes "Okay then can we go there?" she pressed herself as close as she could get "I don't understand why I got so cold all of a sudden.." shaking her head she falls quiet.

Surion nods holding her close "Then we go there" he says and reaches down scooping up their clothes and pulls her into being invisible as he takes to the air heading for the house. "Faster to get you warm if we dont delay to dress, it wont take but a couple minutes, then we can run a hot shower and warm you up, you don't need to get sick" Visha no, we dont need that at all he added in his own thoughts

Tinania nods just keeping quiet, she was trying to keep from freezing. Looking up at Surion she arched a brow then decide not to ask as she hid her face against his neck.

Return of Memories ~ 2

Surion lands on the back deck of the house slipping inside and up the steps, his nose told him his mother was in fact not home. This was perfect in his eyes since Nani wanted seclusion it seemed anyways. He padded through the halls and into the bathroom only becoming visible once more when the door was shut. He drops the clothing and sets her down on her feet "Okay... shower to warm you up" he turns to the steal shower and turns the knobs humming softly

Tinania looked around the bathroom then turned when Surion spoke, shaking her head she tries to stop her teeth from chattering "No its alright on the shower, I'll be alright in a few." she didn't know that she had to warm up the fastest way possible.

"No Nani... shower.. you have to warm up, and there's no ifs ands or buts about it." he nods and pulls her into the water, undergarments and all. "Come melamin" he nods being in the water too

Tinania gasps then yelps when the water hits her cold body, Pushing at Surion she shakes her head "Surion let me go, its too hot!!" it wasn't but on her skin it felt like it.

"Nani you have to warm up, you have to" he kept a tone of seriousness in his voice though it also held concern. "I dont want the results of you getting sick..." he pulled her close so she could still feel the coolness of his body as he had not yet warmed up either

Tinania looks up at him hearing his voice. Biting her bottom lip she closes her eyes laying her head on his chest as she continue to tremble. Though it wasn't as bad as before.

Surion rubbed his hands up and down her figure warming her up as much as he could trying to be fast about it, he purred loudly his eyes closed. He knew the risks of her getting sick and he wasn't willing to risk it

Slowly her body stop trembling as she started to warm up. Opening her eyes she looked up at him "Could be go relax? Please?" her voice was soft as she child as she didn't really like how Surion was acting. Was her being cold really that bad of a thing?

Surion nodded letting her go and reaching over turning the water off. "Yes, we can" he smiles at her and reached for a large fluffy towel nearby and draped it over her shoulders before grabbing a second and climbing out

Stepping out of the shower she held the towel close to her looking around. Turning toward him she frowns alittle "Why were you so serious Surion?"

Surion stops and then turns facing her "Nani, one time when we were both younger you were really sick, I got sick too but not so bad, you told me that being really cold and sick could.." he paused not really wanting to say it but wanting to be honest with her he did "you told me you could die from it... I couldn't risk that, I couldn't risk losing you... not if I can prevent it"

Tinania jaw dropped alittle before she pulled the towel even closer. Her knees felt weak as she stumbled forward alittle. She didn't seem to take to kindly to learning that. Catching herself she shook her head then moves toward him "Okay I want to go lay down..."

Surion stepped towards her his hands moving to her sides to support you "Okay, lets go then" and with that he wrapped an arm around her shoulders and led her towards what used to be his bedroom. It was near empty with the exception of a bare shelf, a bare desk, a bed with bedding, a spear with a wooden dragonette on the top of it and a rucksack

Tinania looked around the room before she relaxed back against Surion. Licking her lip she shakes her head "Sorry I'm a pain tonight.."

Surion shook his head "I told you I'd stand by you no matter what and I meant it!" he motioned the bed "come on lets get you comfortable" he grins "or I tickle again" and with that he wiggles his fingers close to her side in a mock threatening way

Tinania squeaks stepping away from him. Shaking her head she moves quickly over to the bed only to slip under the cover "No tickling"

Surion laughs and follows her sitting beside and atop the blankets "Okay okay you win" he laughs and lays on his side propping his head and looking at her

Smiling she relaxes under the covers before removing not only the towel but her wet clothing. Tossing them to the side she smiles "That is much better."

Surion laughs "Such a familiar scene" he leans over and kisses her resting his free hand atop her belly, "I hope you are comfortable"

Tinania tilts her head running to lay on her side "I am, but you don't have to lay on top. This is your bed afterall." she lifts the covers alittle on his side "And why is this a familiar scene?"

Surion rolls off and then slips under the covers with her "We've spent many a night under these covers, and ours at home too, so it's a familiar scene to me" he purrs and lays close to her "Love you" he tells her after a moment

Tinania smiles running her fingers along his cheek then moves it p to brush against his horn "Think we'll ever have anymore of those intimate nights you talked about earlier?" she looked up at his face as her fingers to brush at his horn.

"You keep that up, I would have to say yes, most certainly" he growls lightly leaning in to kiss her moving a little closer to her at the same time

Tinania gasp against his lips her fingers looping around his horn squeezing it mostly out of shock. Feeling him move closer she pulled her hand away from his horn to run it through his hair.

Surion growls louder his free hand moving to caress any skin it could find on her torso, including a breast, she was doing it, she was very easily arousing him again

Pulling back from the kiss she closed her eyes gasping alittle as she felt his hands move along her body. Shivering alittle she pulled at his hair as she open her eyes slowly looking up at him.

"Nani.. I love you" he whispers to her before going silent again and smiling at her, his hand didn't stop moving it was exploring, while she was so familiar there was things about her that had changed

Tinania smiles then wraps her arms around his neck. Closing her eyes she purrs alittle "Is this the other thing we liked to do alot?" she open her eyes looking up into his. Her cheeks were alittle rosy but she didn't stop him.

"Yes... it's something we like to do" he says purring and kissing her then starts to trail kisses slowly down her chin to her neck. his hands soon coming to caress her skin

Tinania whimpers against his lips closing her eyes not moving. She allowed him to explore her body only because it felt to good to do anything else. Arching her back she pull away from his lips "How far do we go?"

"If you need me to stop, please say something... in the past, we've gone all the way" he whispers to her barely moving away from where he had been kissing. He still wore his boxers, but he was rather aroused

Tinania keeps her eyes closed thinking about what he just said. Pulling away alittle she runs her fingers along his cheek she looking over his face. She wasn't sure what to do, her body was on fire, yet her mind had her thinking.

Surion purrs leaning slightly into her hand, he remained quiet. His eyes watched her think. He wanted her to make the decision, he had decided not to push her into remembering even as he tried to be as... normal as always

Tinania blushes seeing him watch her. Sitting up she runs her finger along his horn as she brushed her other hand across his lips "I'm not sure what I want. Part of me want you, but the other part..."

"The part of you that wants me isn't leaving my horn be... and that makes it hard to control for the part of you who isn't certain" he says taking a deep breath and kissing her hand

Tinania looks up at his horn wrapping her fingers around it for a moment "That sound right..." looking back down at his face she smiles as she runs her hand down to rest on his neck.

"Very hard to control, if I need to though I can" he was breathing deeply by this time. He watches her for a moment and then kisses her lightly on the lips.

Brushing her lisp against his she smiles alittle giving his horn a light squeeze "But for how long?" she pulled back watching his face.

"that's a good question... I don't entirely know, it's my brother's potion" he growls as she squeezes his horn and closes his eyes hoping his desire didn't show too bad, she was really teasing him bad

Tinania purrs then leaning up she bites at his ear as she squeezed his horn even harder before letting go. Laying back down she lifts her hand above her head. "Your fun to tease.."

"Oh Visha" he whispers clenching a fist and then opens his eyes looking at her "Tease, you are so bad Nani... especially if you want me to control" he rolls back and beside her

Tinania lays on her side watching him, with a smile she shrugs "I want you to be you Surion. That is all." laying her head down she closes her eyes.

"I want to be me, I want you to be you, I hope your memories come back." He takes a deep breath and slips under the blanket turning onto his belly and pauses a moment and kisses her belly

Tinania shivers then shakes her head "So why don't you be you Surion? Just because I'm not me right now shouldn't stop you from anything." turning she lays on her side as she moves her fingers to run down his back then up across the nodes

"Then I'll be me" comes his reply from under the blanket as he kisses up her torso growling, his tail twitching as he moves, his hand exploring up her side

Tinania shivers as she watches him. Licking her bottom lip she nods moving to lay on her back "Good.."

Surion chuckles slightly kissing her breast with a little suction before emerging from the blanket and trailing along her neck "I love you so much Nani, I can't begin to start to describe" his hand caresses her breast and he stops moving his head to look down at her

Tinania shivers then pulling away she lays on her stomach wrinkling her nose up "Hmm I think I'm gonna keep teasing you. I'm curious as to how much you can take..." reaching out she wraps her hand around his horn squeezing it hard as she leans forward locking her lips to his.

"Not much" he says just before she squeezes his horn, the second he felt her squeeze though he very literally pounced her biting at the soft flesh of her neck but not hard enough to pierce the flesh

Tinania gasps feeling his teeth at her neck. Moving under him she squeezes alittle more at his horn as she tilts her head to the side "Surion evil..."

Surion growls loudly biting at her neck more, his hands moving all over her flesh he didn't care or even think about his door or much else around him, he was getting lost in her presence

Tinania gasps letting her hand fall from his horn. Looking over her shoulder at him she pulls at his hair alittle "Surion what if someone walks in?"

"Only who might is mum... and she's not home... nor does it matter to her..." He replies simply and growls at her burying his face more into her neck, he straddled her back but didn't put weight on her.

Tinania shivers then shakes her head, she wasn't going to let him have her just yet. Lifting her hands up she tries to hide her neck with her hands.

Surion nuzzled at her hands for a time and then broke away, he sat up looking down at her. counted to 10 in his head and then shifted off her onto the bed taking deep breaths

Tinania looks over at him sitting up "What wrong? Don't like my teasing?" with a smile she slips out of the bed walking towards the door. She didn't care that she was naked.

"Your teasing is driving me crazy" he says opening an eye and looking over at her. He sits up shifting positions a bit. He swings his feet off the bed and watches her move purring loudly his eyes following her movements

Tinania looks over her shoulder at him as she closes the door "I thought you liked when I teased you though?" turning she leans her back against the door as she watches him.

"I do... even more when we go beyond that." he pauses "Lock it too Melamin" he leans his hands on his knees just watching her. After a time he stood and wandered slowly towards her

Tinania arches a brow watching him walk towards her "Why do I have to lock the door." she hand moved to rest on the lock of the door. Her eyes never left his as she licked her bottom lip.

"Because it would prevent anyone from walking in... plus noone out there can here anything from in here if you do" He walks closed stopping right in front of her and lifts a hand trailing it down over her chest

Shivering she closes her eyes but didn't move her hand. Tilting her head to the side she smiles alittle "Oh well then I guess I'll just have to not lock it and stay here.."

"Nothing new... I've taken you standing I've taken you sitting, I've taken you in the shower, in the springs and other places... And I'm having a very hard time controlling myself right now" Surion glances at his rucksack for a moment. About this time he felt a light ticking feeling and looks down "Senti no..." he says to the dragonnette which had been on his staff till he had walked over to her and the door.

Tinania jaw dropped alittle then when he wasn't looking she ducks down and ran pass him laughing.

Surion reaches down after he'd seen her run past him "Senti stay put" he grumbles quietly dropping the dragonette beside the spear before turning to look at Nani, he could hear her laughter

Tinania smirks then places her hands behind her back "What wrong?" her wings fluttered behind her as she shook her head to let her hair fall to hide her chest.

"You are being a serious tease, not that unusual, but you are being moreso now then ever, and I know you yourself are in control not the imp, I've seen the imp enough times to guess that" he sighs and shifts his weight watching her

Tinania frowns hearing him sigh then looked away "I'm guessing that a bad thing." wrapping her arms around her waist she turns her back on him feeling bad for even teasing him alittle.

"If I have to control myself it's not easy... if I dont have to control myself it's not so hard." he walks over to her and wraps his arms around her "Doesn't matter though, I love you, regardless, if I have to control I will simple as that"

Tinania remains quiet just looking at the ground. She didn't know what to do. Turning in his arms she bites at his chest as she runs her hands over his sides.

Surion growls softly and purrs loudly, he was relaxing and feeling her warmth, feeling her touch. He pulls her closer holding her there, gently but firmly. He hummed softly, a familiar tune to him, just wanting to hum it to her

Tinania feels herself get pulled closer, looking up she blushes "If you want me to stop teasing you I will." she looks down closing her eyes. She wasn't sure what she wanted.

"Only, if you don't want things to go further Nani... I will not pressure you to do anything." He let his hands travel up and down her back as he continued to humm to her

Tinania nods then bites at his chest again hearing the tune he was humming, Running her tongue along his chest she pulls back then shakes her head "I want to so badly, I should really just stop thinking..."

"Follow your heart Nani" he whispers kneading her skin on her back smelling her hair as she teased his chest.

Tinania closes her eyes thinking about it before she bits down harder at his chest. Her nails digging into his skin. She was just gonna allow things to happen, if she wanted to stop she knew she could, but for now she just wanted this.

Surion growls wrapping his arms around her and under her bottom moving to lift her up.

Tinania gasps wrapping her arms around his neck pulling herself close to him. Looking at him she tilts her head to the side then blushes alittle.

Surion chuckles and presses his lips against hers walking towards the bed again and then sat down holding her in his lap. He intended to keep kissing her as long as he could. He wanted to show her as much love as he could

Returning the kiss, she runs her fingers along his cheek as the other hand ran through his hair. She at this point didn't want to stop him, nor did she really try to. Biting lightly at his bottom lip she pulls back alittle grinning.

Surion grins back at her "You are so very tempting and I am so very tempted to take you right here and right now" he lifts a hand from her back and strokes it softly over one of her wings to see if they were as sensitive now as he remembered them to be

Tinania closes her eyes as her wings fluttered alittle. Shaking her head she blushes feeling his fingers along her wings. Moving alittle in his lap she opens her eyes slowly "Oh? I'm tempting am I?"

"Yes" He replies with a growl pulling her closer against her burying his face into her neck once more biting at her neck. He pulled her about as close as he possibly could not caring that he would be pressing the bulge in his boxers against her

Tinania whimpers then moves alittle in his lap again. Pulling at his hair she leans in biting at his ear "Then why don't you do something about it?" pulling away she attempts to climb off his lap.

"Maybe I will" he says with a coy grin letting her pull away but tickling her skin lightly as she did. "Course to deal with temptation I'm wearing too much"

Tinania looks at him before shrugging as she crawled onto the bed on all fours "Hmm too bad then, I could always just go to sleep." laying on her side not facing him she giggles to herself.

"Oh you think you are getting off that easy after all that do ya" he replies in a teasing voice shedding the last of his garments and trailing after her growling and treating her teasingly like prey

Tinania looks over her shoulder at him laughing "yea you are the one who had clothes on. I think I shall sleep." turning she lays back on her side still not facing him. Closing her eyes she pretends to yawn.

Surion growls playfully and closes the last of the distance burying his head into her neck biting at it and moving a hand over her side and belly "Pretend sleep doesn't work"

Tinania shivers arching her back alittle then shakes her head "It doesn't but it was worth the try." lifting her hand she runs it though his hair as she tilts her head back alittle "So your gonna act like yourself?"

"To be myself..." he says nothing but pulls her shoulder gently to encourage her to her back, he presses his lips against hers and runs his hands along her sides and down her leg teasing her skin and just about every sensitive spot his fingers found

Tinania smiles against his lips as her fingers run through his hair. The other hand running along his side. Moving under him alittle she bends her leg as she lifts her hips alittle almost begging him with her body.

Surion purrs loudly pressing his tongue against her lips seeking out hers, he changes his position beginning to get completely lost in the moment and the urge that accompanied it.

Tinania whimpers then digs her nails into his skin. Pushing at him she gasps then pulls her lips from his opening her eyes. Looking up at him she licks her bottom lip. She was breathing hard as she lifted her hand to run along his cheek. She wasn't sure what to do.

Surion pauses breathing hard when she pushed against him. He looks down at her looking into her eyes and licks his own lips. He was looking for signs, he wanted some hint of her feelings

Tinania blushes then places her hands over her face to hide it. She wasn't sure how to express what she wanted. Part of her said just pull him to her, but then she didn't want to make the wrong move.

"Melamin, do you want me to be me.. or to hold back what is me?" he asks her quietly not moving from where he was perched. A hand moving to run a finger along the back of her hands

Tinania lets her hands falls from her face looking up at him. Tilting her head to the side she bites her bottom lip "You, I just don't wish to disappoint you..." she looked away sighing to herself.

"Nani you have never once ever been a disappointment to me" He leans down kissing her again, wanting to be with her the way they had been weeks and weeks before. The side of him that had been resisting the urge for so long now wanting to bring her pleasure.

Tinania shivers biting lightly at his lip. Her hands moving along his back. Her mind although it was confuse she wanted this for now. She would think about it later.

~Short time later~

Tinania whimpers tilting her head to the side. Closing her eyes she shivers as she drags her nails down his back "Surion, please..."

"Hmm?" his mind distracted but still alert to her voice. He pauses panting and lifts his head to look down at her

Tinania looked up at him, her eyes showing something that wasn't normal. It was fear, placing her hands on his chest she swallows then shakes her head "Too fast..." she closes her eyes looking away from him.

Surion stops and nods. he pulls away reaching for a sheet and pulling it over her. He respected that, he was leaving it her call. He reaches over grabbing up a house robe near as he rolled off the bed "Sorry Nani" he whispers and wanders off towards the door pulling it around himself, he had to cool off..

Tinania frowns then shakes her head "Surion no...please don't leave. I didn't mean for you to..." she closes her eyes as she pulled her knees up to her chest. She hid her face as the tears ran down her face.

"Nani I wont rush you, I have to cool off though, please don't think you did anything wrong. I just control myself if I dont cool off. I won't be but a minute" he pauses, hand on the door to look at her, his heart aching watching her cry

Tinania kept her face hidden shaking her head before she lay back down on the bed. She didn't want him to stop, she just didn't want him to go so fast.Laying on her side she pulled the covers up as she hid her face with her hair. The tears still running down her face.

Surion sighs softly, his heart just wouldn't let him leave her like this. He turned and walked back to the bed sitting down beside her and then brushed her hair out of her face

Tinania looked away from him breathing slowly "I didn't want you to stop. Just not so fast..." she pauses then closes her eyes "It started hurting..." she hides her face in the pillow feeling utterly stupid.

"Mela... I'm sorry, I didn't know..." he runs his fingers along her cheek and then leans in kissing her damp cheek tenderly. Now he understood what she meant, he had misinterpreted previously

Tinania shook her head then remains quiet, she just wanted at this point to run. Sitting up she pulls away from Surion pulling the covers close to her body. Her hair fell around her face to hide in as her body trembled.

Surion sighs and gets off the bed and heads for the door again "Way to go Surion screwed it up now" he mumbles softly to himself

Tinania lifted her head then shook her head "You promise you wouldn't leave me.." she hiccups then hides her face again. She didn't want him to leave, she wanted him with her. She just didn't know how to show him.

"Melamin, I told you I would be with you, stay with you, support you and protect you. I chose and took you as my mate, to me and my kind that's a lifetime commitment" He closes his eyes and just stands there not knowing how to fix where he had screwed up.

Tinania shakes her head then hiccups again "Please don't leave me here Mela.." she tried the word he use towards her "I'm just scared, I don't know what to do.." she sighs then curses to herself, but it was loud enough to know it was Elven.

Surion took a deep breath, trying to calm himself and gather his control. After a moment and for the second time in five minutes he turned back to the bed and walked back sitting down beside her and then reaches over resting a hand on her side "/Mela I love you/" he whispers

Tinania looked over at him wrapping her arms around his neck "I love you too Mela. I just wish I could be who you remember..?" she didn't even think about that she spoken in Elven. She was trembling and scared as she crawled into his lap hiding her face against his neck.

"It'll come. may take time but there's no avoiding that." He wraps his arms around her holding her close rocking slightly side to side trying to comfort her and reassure her

Tinania looked at him nodding before she lean forward brushing her lips against his lightly. Pulling back she whisper softly to him the female part of the mate song.

Surion purrs softly and returns the song, it was an important song to him and though her memories were very broken up, he was glad to hear her sing it to him

Tinania smiles running her fingers along his cheek. She kept singing softly as she looked over his face. Glancing up at his eyes she search them before something flash through her mind causing her to wince in pain.

The image was of a huge fight between them. In a club and she was with another man.

Surion breaks off the song frowning with concern "Nani you ok?" he asks seeing her obvious pain and hating seeing her in such pain

Tinania shook her head then whimpers "Fight...big fight...Silver, you...me..." she winces again crying out in pain as she clutches her stomach. The pain was so intense it was making her sick.

Surion pulled her closer kissing her forehead softly hoping to help her pain "It's over, it's in the past" he whispers to her closing his eyes, the fight, why did it have to be one of the memories that surfaced first, it wasn't a happy memory

Tinania whimpers shaking her head, she didn't know why but everything seem to be flooding back in all at once. Something trigger her to remember and it caused the rest to come also.

Pulling away and off his lap she stood only to fall to her knees in pain. She let out a glass breaking scream holding the side of her head. The pain was too much for her.

"Nani!" he said with serious concern in his voice, he clapped his hands over his ears when he screamed, even then it hurt them but it was the least of his concerns. he moved to her side trying to comfort and help her pain

Panting she cries the tears running down her face as she shook her head "They won't stop coming. The memories..." she was trembling and pale alittle as the memories were draining her body badly.

Surion pulls her close against him his gem shining bright as he spoke softly in pure Kerrsalian praying to his lady, his mother's goddess, for her strength to help Nani. His words heard and understood by Senti the dragonette skitters up Surion's side and arm coming to rest on his shoulder

Tinania continue to shake keeping her eyes closed, everything right down to the very fall that cause her memory lost came back to her. Shaking her head she went limp in his arms as the last of her energy was drain from her body.

Breathing slowly she was she pale and the wings colors seem to lose some of there color.

Surion held her, he refused to let go of her, giving her healing energy anything he and Senti could spare. He didn't notice his mother's entrance or her touching the pair either

Tinania breathing although slow was steady. She didn't move in his arms nor did her wings move. She seem almost lifeless.

Ala stopped when she knew she could give no more without passing out "Surion lets get her comfortable" she whispers

Surion nods without a word, with his mom's help he lays Nani gently down and then lays down next to her holding her still in his arms, Senti curled up on her hip and Ala slipped silently from the room

Tinania wasn't moving, though slowly her color started to come back to her skin. Her breathing was slowly going back to regular though she didn't wake up at all.

"Please come back to me Nani" Surion whispers softly to her, he made no move to leave her side. He was happy to hear and feel her breathing return to something near normal, but he was still concerned about her.

Return of Memories ~ 4

Tinania stirred alittle but didn't open her eyes. Slowly the color came back to her wings before she finally started to open her eyes. They had changed, they were no longer just aqua blue but faded to the emerald green.

Moaning she lifts her hand to her head "What happen?"

Surion opens his eyes and looks down at her giving her a soft smile "Feeling better Mela?" he asks looking at her and running his fingers along her cheek and seeking out a hopeful good answer

Tinania looks up at him then arches a brow "Feeling better? I feel like I just got hit by a bus..." with a small laugh she sits up alittle looking around before she looks at him "Why are we in your old bedroom?"

Surion chuckles and rolls onto his back relief flooding into him "Thank Visha...." he says putting a hand to his forehead "Thank Visha"

Senti who had been on her hip skittered up into lap standing on his hind paws chittering away happily, Surion heard the dragonette's words in his mind but it was still chittering

Tinania arches a brow before looking down at the creature on her lap "Okay who is this?" she eyes the small dragonette as she pushed her hand through her hair looking at him "Are you okay Mela?"

Surion smiles "That is Senti, your aunt gave him to me, he's a bonded creature, goes with that spear" he says pointing to the crystal tipped spear across the room as he sat up "He aided me while I was looking for you, and while I was away" he smiles and leans over kissing her cheek

Tinania nods still watching the creature. Shaking her head she looks at him "So why are we at your parent's home Mela? Something wrong at home?" her wings flutter alittle as she lifted her arms above her head.

She felt like a ton of bricks had fallen on top of her. She didn't understand why she was so sore.

Surion chuckles "Well that's a long story, but to sum it up, you got hurt, you lost your memories, you ran away, I looked for you, got called to war, by the time I'd returned you had but you still had no memories and weren't comfortable being near anyone who you wouldn't remember but would remember you" he leans on a hand looking at her

Tinania shook her head then place her hand on her forehead "All I remember is walking through the woods, then..." she stops almost paling as she remember who had attacked her.

Looking over at Surion she licked her now dry lips "He didn't...."

Surion nods wordlessly not wanting to confirm her fear but knowing she needed to know. He could remember seeing what she looked like afterwards vividly and wanted to wipe that memory from his mind

Tinania places her hand on her stomach almost looking for the stab that she felt through her body as she remember that night all to well. Shaking her head she breaths slowly "How could he..."

"Nani, that's the kind of guy he was, unfortunately, and I knew it from the day you stopped me from killing him" he reaches over and brushes stray hairs from her face

Tinania looked over at him then nods before looking down at the dragonette "Think it be alright if I lay down little one? I miss being in the arms of my husband.." she turns looking at him, a smile forming across her lips.

Senti tipped his head and looked back and forth and then skittered away and up the shaft of the spear till he was in his place and once again motionless

"You have no idea how much I miss hearing those words" Surion says in Elven to her before scooting closer to her

Tinania blushes then runs her hand along his cheek "How long was I sleeping? And I'm sorry I scared you in anyway." she lays down next to him pulling him close to her warm body. She miss being able to hold him.

"Sleeping, oh not too long, missing well, far too long" he chuckles "but that's the past and this is now" he reaches over and pulls her close facing him "I love you" he says holding her

Tinania smiles running her fingers along his cheek "I love you Surion, your acting like I vanished on you or something." leaning forward she brushed her lips against his.

"That's because you did, you left when you were missing your memories, after you were attacked" he turns his head kissing her fingers and purring happily his day was filled now with relief and happiness

Tinania frowns then shakes her head "I don't remember any of it other then what Ducan did to me.." she cringes hissing when she spoke the name. Moving closer to him she buries her face against his neck.

"Consider yourself fortunate" he says simply and smiles at her and runs a hand through her hair "You grew... I have to catch up with you now" he tells her not letting her go

Tinania arches a brow before sitting up alittle "What do you mean I grew?" she looked down at herself, she looked the same to herself. Looking back at him she shook her head "Surion I think your tired sweetie.."

Surion laughs "Come on I'll show you" he motions to the floor length mirror still on one side of the room. He pretends to be shifty and sneaky and whispers "One hot Nani"

Tinania shakes her head as she stood following him "Surion your crazy, there is no way I..." she stop speaking as she looked at herself in the mirror. Her jaw dropped as she stared at her wings.

Surion walks around her "See? I told you so" he says with a wide grin on his face "You look beautiful" he pushes his bangs out of his face and watches her stare at herself

Tinania blushes alittle then looks at him "I'm..." she couldn't even begin to come up with the words. Turning alittle she flutters her wings looking at them "And to think these buggers gave me problems when I was a teen.."

"You started to learn to use them though, we flew to the hot spring and waterfall from the Haven" he steps between her and the mirror "So now what would you like to do my love"

Tinania eyes widen before she shook her head "I flew, are you serious?" she squeals then jumps in her spot forgetting that she was naked.

Surion laughs "Yeah you flew and I flew with you to make sure you didn't fall, you weren't really confident in yourself" he loved her excitement

Tinania stopped jumping then looked at him arching a brow "Wait, you flew, but how?" she stepped toward him glancing at his back. When she see the nodes her jaw drops.

Surion laughs "to each of us a change of one kind or another I suppose" he turns a little seeing her look letting her see more

Lifting her finger she runs it along the top of the nodes "Wow so much is different..." with a smile she kisses his ear then smiles "But we're not are we? Were still the same.."

"We are Surion and Nani, and that's all that matters... Do you want to stay here? or go get my bike from the haven and go home" he gave her the choice

Tinania looks around then shaking her head she wraps her arms around his neck "Its late to travel back home. Can we stay here for the night?" lifting her hand she runs in along his horn purring alittle.

"Of course my love" Surion says nuzzling her purring loudly and growling as as her fingers touched his horns

Giggling Tinania pulls away then smiles "Some things never change do they." winking she walks back towards the bed.

"Never do, likely wont now or ever will" Surion laughs and pulls her playfully towards the bed. He tail flicking with his movement

Tinania giggles then pokes at his side trying to get away "Someone is playful hmm? And why is this?"

"Probably cause a certain someone has been teasing him for the last hour or so" he grins at her coyly

Tinania arches a brow as she sat on the edge of the bed "Oh? Well I don't remember doing it.." she sticks her tongue at him then giggles.

Surion laughs "But I do" he grins and wiggles his eye brows pulling her closer to him, "not to mention teasing me with your pretty much see through undergarments at the springs... I will get you for that"

Tinania shakes her head then tries to pull away "Surion you can't get me back for something I don't remember." poking him in the side she lays back on the bed.

"I can... but then I know you'll tease me more eventually anyways, so I'll get you one way or the other" Surion laughs and sheds the half robe he wore and climbed into the bed with her. "Glad you are my mate... love you Nani" he says before kissing her softly

Returning the kiss she runs her fingers lightly over his side then pulls back alittle "How much teasing did I do?"

"Played with my horns, squeezing my horn and biting at my chest" He replies and smiles down at her shivering slightly as her fingers tickled his side

Tinania giggles then wrinkles her nose "Wow, and you haven't pounce me yet. I'm very surprised." leaning up she bites at his neck as her fingers continue to run along his skin.

"I did" Surion purrs loudly tipping his head to one side as he felt her bites. He moved his hand and fondle her breast "We didn't finish though, it was right before your memories returned"

Tinania smirks then pulls away yawning alittle "I see..." laying on her stomach she watches him for a moment "Hmmm what to do..."

"Hmmm such a dilemma isn't it mela" he grins coyly and lays on his back linking his hands behind his head looking up at the ceiling

Tinania looks over at him arching a brow before she rolls onto her side facing away from him "Not really I'll just go to sleep." with a shrug she smiles to herself.

"If I let you" Surion says with a laugh turning his head and looking over at her pulling a hand out from behind him and walking his fingers across her belly

Tinania shivers then closes her eyes, her lips parting alittle as she licks the bottom lip. Giggling she opens her eyes wrinkling her nose before moving away from him "Oh you think can stop me from sleeping?"

"Yes I think I can" he grins as his fingers walk over her hip and he snuggles even closer to her "It wouldn't be the first time now would it"

Tinania arches a brow then shiver shaking her head "Just for that I will go to sleep." closing her eyes she reaches for the covers to hide her body.

"You are so mean" Surion pouts catching her wrist and burying his face in her neck biting at the flesh there.

Tinania gasps arching her back alittle when she feels his teeth at her flesh. Shivering she closes her eyes breathing slowly "Tease..."

Surion growls biting more at her neck harder his hand leaving her wrist to travel over her hip and tickles her

Tinania whimpers moving her his under his touch. Tilting her head back she closes her eyes as his single touch cause her whole body to tingle. It felt like she had been wanting this for a very long time, but just couldn't have it.

Pulling back alittle she runs her fingers along his ear before whispering softly against his ear, Her lips brushing against the flesh of his ear "Surion we can't..."

Surion growls softly. His attention was completely hers, he heard her words, words he hadn't exactly expected to hear. Pausing and pulling back a little he looks at her confused

Tinania sits up alittle then running her fingers along his bottom lip smiling "Unless you plan on becoming a father, we need a condom love.." she spoke his almost to soft her in hopes he would understand what it meant.

Surion stared at her "Now you've confused me Nani, you said you couldn't become.. uh...yeah" he scratches his head looking a touch bewildered

Tinania giggles sitting up fully now, her hair falling over her shoulder to hide her breast alittle "I couldn't unless I broke the curse..." turning she shows him the panther that was on her shoulder where the marking should be.

Looking back at him she smiles hoping he understood "The night I was attacked...I was coming from the school.."

"You asked me about that marking before your memory came back" he pushes to sit and looks at it.. "Ok, well then protection is needed" he wasn't sure about the condom thing, none around that he knew of. "Uhmmm" he sighs and frowns all his alchemy stuff was at the house

Tinania laughs then leaning forward she brushes her lips against his neck "You don't sound excited that I broke the curse." her fingers trailed lightly over his stomach "Or is it because you want me that bad?"

"Melamin I'm very proud that you solved the curse... lil flustered but considering the teasing that's a given." he chuckles "And yes I want you, need you, desire you." he purrs shivering at her light touch and lifting his hand he places it atop hers on his chest

Tinania blushes then lays her head on his shoulder closing her eyes "Sorry about the teasing, I couldn't help it. Its been such a long time since I have been able to be this close to you.." pulling back alittle she looks down at the bed then back at him "I just don't want to get pregnant in case your not ready..."

"Nani, I would support you no matter what. I have been taking that risk since day one of our intimate relations." he lifts his hand running it through her hair pulling her bangs gently from her face "I love you"

Tinania looks up at him smiling before lifting her hand to run it over his cheek "Yes I know, but this Surion is a child. Its totally different then any of our companions. I don't want to have a child until were both ready.." biting her bottom lip she closes her eyes "I'll be quiet now.."

"Nani, I'm ready whenever you are, so I will let you make that call love." he leans in and kisses her softly "For now we'll take whatever precautions are needed" he pulls her close

Tinania gasps then laughs running her fingers along his bottom lip "Well okay, but what about right now? What do we do?" she tilts her head wrinkling her nose up alittle "Your parents didn't have any condoms or something?"

"My parents? Condoms? Not likely, I've heard the gruesome details" he laughs then continues "Uhmmm I can get mum to take me back to the house or I can ask her to take me to a store or something" he waits for her opinion

Tinania thinks for a moment then smiles "Sure only if you want your mother teasing us. But it might be worth it." laying back down she lifts her hands above her head "I'll let you decide.."

Surion laughs "you are a lot of help" he shakes his head and ponders for a minute "Okay well I'll be back then" he rolls off the bed and pulls on his pants before heading out of the room

Tinania giggles watching him leave before she turned laying on her side. She remained quiet as she glance towards the mirror, sitting up she looks at herself then shakes her head. She still couldn't believe how much had changed.

Giggling she lays back down closing her eyes, a soft smile playing across her lips. She felt safe, and for once in a long time whole.

Return of Memories ~ 5

Surion was gone a while and when he returned he he was humming contently. When he entered the room he closed the door and locked it "Hello again Melamin" he says crossing the room

Tinania didn't say anything, her wings fluttered alittle as she seem to have fallen asleep while waiting. Her hair hid most of her face from his view and she was covered up pretty well with the blanket.

Surion drops his little bag on the empty tableside bed. He sits on the bed beside her and rubs her back softly. He wasn't sure if he had the heart to wake her when she looked so peaceful

Tinania purred alittle yawning before she open her eyes slowly. Giving him a small sleepy smile she wrinkles her nose up "Hey, sorry I fell asleep..." her hair fell around her face as she turned alittle to lay on her back.

"You looked very peaceful" he tells her and smiles "Wasn't going to wake you if my touch didn't wake you" he lets his hand move along her side as it came over her side from rubbing her back

Tinania smiles then blushes alittle "I guess my body was just alittle tired, I mean after getting everything back it seem to drain a girl." sitting up she yawns lifting her hands above her head in the process "But the quick nap helped alittle."

Surion grinned but didn't verbally reply, instead he leans forward and kisses her chest right below her chin and worked downwards from there

Tinania giggles then leans back alittle just watching him "So what did mum say when you asked her to take you to the store?" she was just mildly curious, if anything she was trying to wake up again.

"Nothing, was kinda quiet actually" he says after pausing a moment. He looks upwards at her giving her a smile before returning to kissing her, shifting to get comfortable in his pants

Tinania arches a brow but soon closes her eyes as a shiver runs up then down her spine. Biting lightly on her bottom lip she tilts her head to the side "You really miss me that much?"

"More then you could ever imagine Nani" he confirms and purring pulls her close

Tinania giggles tilting back alittle to allow him better access. Running her fingers through his hair she pulls at it alittle then smirks "Oh I don't have to imagine I can tell Mela.."

Surion growls and pulls her into his lap. He didn't have to use vocabulary to get across what he wanted to make her feel and so he didn't

Tinania gasps running both her hands through his hair before falling back onto the bed. Her eyes fell close as she moved alittle under Surion.

Surion's hands trailing over her body from shoulders to hips before leaning forward and kissing her belly.

Giggling she pulls at his hair alittle then arches her back "Surion your a tease.." she lifted her leg to wrap it around his waist as she bites at her lower lip.

"Yes I am, but you love it and you know it" he purrs kissing her belly again before trying to loose himself and stand up next to the bed

Tinania smirks tilting her head to watch him. Laying fully onto the bed she gives a pretend yawn then turns to lay on her side "I think its time to sleep, my body is awfully tired."

Surion shed his pants and crawled in the bed after her "Oh we'll see about that" he says and growls his tail flicking playfully as he nuzzles into her side

Tinania giggles then pushing at him trying to get free. She liked teasing him when he was like this, it was much fun to her. Turning to lay on her stomach she hides her neck with her hands.

Surion growls more he didn't go after her neck instead he played with her wings and back nipping at the flesh here and there

Tinania squeaks fluttering her wings from his touch. Turning her head she moans into the pillow before squirming under him trying to get away,

Surion decided then and there to be relentless and pinned her continuing his teasing doing his best to rile her up, he loved when she was riled up, she was a LOT of fun that way

Tinania shivered then shook her head trying to free her hand. Kicking her feet alittle she gasps then moans again "EVIL!!"

"You know me" he says with a laugh being relentless and humming as he nipped at her flesh. "I will get you yet" he says pausing the tune and nipping for a moment and then continuing

Tinania laughs then shakes her head "We'll see about that dragon boy. I'll outlast your teasing.." closing her eyes she hums to herself trying not to pay attention to Surion even if it wasn't working.

Surion laughs and leans closer nipping firmly but not hard at the tips of her ears, He had full intentions of winning this little battle no matter what it took, after all... He was the hunter...

Tinania shivers then shakes her head hoping to stop him from getting at her ear. Whimpering into the pillow she breaths in slowly then flutters her wings quickly hoping to stop him for at least a moment.

He laughs as the wings tickle his flesh "Forgot I know your sensitive spots Mela?" he moves and pauses a moment before going after his target once more "I will win" he proclaims playfully

Tinania shivers then whimpers again before turning her head to look over her shoulder at him "You forget I also know you weakness. I'm just not cruel enough to use it.." flutter her wings alittle faster they start to make a lower humming sound.

Surion laughs "Oh you have been that evil in the past too" he nips at her ear "Come now let the imp loose" he purrs and begins to hum the male side of the mating song once more

Tinania shivers then shakes her head "I can't anymore Surion, she not there.." she giggles then fall quiet listening to him hum. She soon picked up the humming only it was the female part.

"I saw the green eyes, let that fun side out, even if it's not the imp it's still you" He purrs loudly hearing her return the song "I want to take you" he whispers in her ear

Tinania shivers then looks at him, her eyes were a mixture of the emerald green and aqua blue. Licking her bottom lip she giggles then shakes her head "I'm having fun teasing you. I wanna see how much more you can take.."

"Perhaps I'll do the same to you then" and he falls silent attacking her ear one more time growling happily. his hands played and fondled.

Tinania shakes her head again then tries to get her hands free "No fair, when I get free your getting it Surion." she was giggling as she moves beneath him. She wasn't going to show it but he was driving her crazy.

Surion laughs "You aren't getting free that soon" he growls pinning her even more and teasing every place he knew of. It wasn't helping him all that much either in the terms of getting riled up

Tinania smirks then closes her eyes "I could if I wanted to Surion. You wanna see how I can get free?" she looked over his shoulder a twinkle in her eyes as she licked her bottom lip.

Surion grins not replying he was determined to rile her up as much as he could before she could get free, his tail tip was creeping up her leg

Tinania shiver then shook her head, her eyes falling closed as she felt this tail along her leg. He was making it hard for her to think, moreless try to get free. Her breathing changed as her fight seem to lessen.

"Guess you'll have to help me figure out those things out mela" he purrs his tail moving closer to it's destination. He heard the change in breathing, oh Visha he wanted her so bad

Whimpering she didn't even try to get free anymore, her skin becoming warm as she breaths alittle harder. She no longer cared about getting free, on her mind was Surion and the need to be with him. Turning her head she opens her eyes looking at him "Surion..."

"Yes Mela?" he purrs kissing her cheek still pouring his attention on her, his tail tickling her and trying to restrain himself

Tinania gasps then closed her eyes, licking her dry lips she shook her head then moving under him alittle "No more teasing..."

"Teasing is fun" he chuckles but relents and stops and slides off of her sitting beside of her licking his lips as he nudges her

Tinania breaths in as she slowly turns to lay on her side. Looking over at him as she nudges him she smirks then wrinkles her nose at him "Okay it seems I can't hold out that long..."

Surion chuckles "Well I want you and I have what we need to do that... " he motions his head at the small bag on the bedside table and runs his fingers down her front.

Tinania shivers closing her eyes then giggles alittle "I see..." sitting up as she open her she leans up brushing her lips against his neck as she runs her fingers along his stomach.

Surion purrs closing his eyes letting her have her fun "Oh Visha Nani I've missed you so much" he whispers pulling her close

Tinania giggles straddling his lap as she continue to kiss along his neck "How much did you miss me Surion?"

"Alot Mela" he replies and tips his head to give her better access to his neck "More then I can ever describe." his hands fondled and played with her soft flesh as he spoke

Tinania pulled back gasping as her nails dug into the skin on his chest. Looking up at him she parts her lips alittle as she moved in his lap, she didn't want to speak anymore, she just wanted him.

Surion breaths deep and opens his eyes, "Nani, I need you so bad..." he pauses and then leans back and grabs the baggie "Guess it's time to figure these out huh"

Tinania blushes then nods alittle "I guess so, shouldn't be too hard right?" tilting her head she kisses his cheek before crawling off his lap to lay on the bed.

Surion chuckles and nods pulling the package from the bag and turning it over in his hands "Well lets see..." he pauses and reads the box then opens it blushing as he pulls one out "Uhm yeah ok" he bites his bottom lip and tears it open and after a time sorts it out and soon is looking at her with a grin "Suppose that wasn't too hard" he chuckles

Tinania smirks nodding alittle, giggling she places her hands slightly above her head purring alittle,

~~later~~

Turning in his arms she runs her fingers lightly over his cheek smiling "I love you.."

Surion purrs and nuzzles her hand kissing it "I love you too, with everything that I am" he stifles a yawn at the end of his sentence, he was growing sleepy but he didn't want to sleep unless she did

Tinania smiles then runs her finger over his cheek "Sleep mela. You need your rest.." yawning herself she closed her own eyes curling up as close as she could to him.

"So do you" he purrs and closes his eyes letting out one more yawn then slowly he lets himself sleep content in the knowledge that she had her memory back

Yawning she places her hand on his neck, breathing slowly she allows sleep to take over knowing that when she woke up he would be the first thing she saw.

Heading Home

Surion stretched and sat up, rubbed the sleep from his eyes, it was the next morning and he was just waking up. He yawns and scratches his head "Morning mela" he says with a smile happier then ever especially knowing she was back and hand her memories

Tinania was still sleeping, her hair hiding her face as she laid on her side. It still seem that her body needed rest from all that had happen the night before.

As her wings fluttered alittle, she moves a piece of hair away from her nose before returning to her peaceful sleep.

Surion chuckles softly and wraps a house robe around his waist and wanders from the room, what met his eyes though surprised him. Boxes everywhere and a lot of stuff was packed up. After a quick shower and a drink he wanders back to the room carrying a couple pieces of fruit and a bun the later that he brought he munched on

Tinania was sitting up rubbing her eyes when Surion had return. Yawning she lays back down on her side pulling the covers over her head. It seem that today she wasn't a morning person. She just wanted more then anything to go back to sleep for a few more hours.

Surion drops onto the bed beside her and places the fruit in her lap atop the blanket "Morning Melamin" he purrs and watches her and finishes off the bun and then leans on his knees

Tinania groans then shakes her head under the covers "Just a few more hours. Its too early to get up." this was coming from the girl who was up when the sun came up. Peeking her head out from under the covers she glares at the fruit wrinkling her nose up then goes back to hiding under the covers.

"Oh you party pooper, you can't tell me you dont want to go home... 'sides something is up here, can hardly move around the house there's boxes absolutely everywhere" he leans down and kisses her peeking forehead

Arching a brow she sat up to her elbow tilting her head "Boxes? Is your mother moving?" shaking her head she sighs then lays back down "Yes I do want to go home, but then I also don't want to move." with another yawn she looks over the fruit licking at her bottom lip.

"I don't know, I haven't had much chance to talk to her, she's kinda hiding somewhere here..." he stretches and sheds the robe from his shoulders letting it just hang around his waist and rubs his shoulders "Well we can go whenever then" he turns his head and looks at her

Tinania arches a brow as she bites the inside of her lip. Thinking it over alittle she shakes her head. She wasn't going to get involved. Placing the fruit on his lap she kicks the covers off her body.

Stretching she reaches out touching her feet for a moment before she slipped off the bed bending down to gather her clothes.

With a sly smirk on his face as she climbs from the bed he lets the fruit fall from his lap and reached over giving her bottom a pinch before rolling off the bed on the other side of the bed scooping up his pants

Yelping she looks over at him with a shocked look on her face. Wrinkling her nose up she laughs before pulling her panties and pants on. Placing her hands on her hips she looks around trying to figure out where her shirt had got to during the night.

Surion likes up his pants and zips them he didn't bother with his shirt right away instead let his wings unfurl and stretch wide "Sleep well mela?" he asks her as she searches

Tinania nods as she continues to look "Yea now that I'm not having to deal with broken dreams I slept peacefully." she pauses looking over her shoulder as a glint of evil appears to her "That is when you weren't snoring." laughing she turns still looking around.

Placing her hands on her hips she shook her head "Its impossible that my shirt just vanished. I could always just go walking home like this." she was teasing as she wouldn't do that even if her life depended on it.

Surion laughs "It's probably in the bathroom, after all that's the first place we went when we got here" he stretches and then folds his wings completely and turns to watch her "Though I wouldn't complain about that attire" he grins and purrs his tail twitching back and forth behind him

Tinania smiles then shakes her head as she heads towards the bedroom door "I'm sure you wouldn't complain mela. But then neither would then men and women as we headed up." with a shrug she slipped from the room heading towards the bathroom.

She only stopped for a moment when she saw all the boxes. Shaking her head she moves around them heading into the bathroom. Sure enough her shirt was sitting on the floor. Bending down she grabs it pulling it over her head quickly. Adjusting herself she looks at herself in the mirror running her hand though her hair to fix it alittle before turning on the water.

Surion spends a few minutes as she searches for her shirt and gathers up the stuff he'd brought home, including a large bundle wrapped in deer hide and then follows after her his hands in his pockets as he wanders into the bathroom

Scrubbing at her face she places her hands under the water then splashes it onto her face. Reaching out she grabs the towel dapping at her face to dry it as she turns to look at Surion. Looking at the item wrapped up she tilts her head giving him a curious look "What's that?"

Surion drops the bundle near the door "Just something I brought home from the cliffs, I don't think I'll be going back, so I wanted it... after all..." he leaves his sentence hanging but runs a finger along one of his many long scars

Tinania nods then lifts her hand to brush it against his cheek. With a small smile she leans up brushing her lips against his softly before pulling away. Tossing the towel back on the towel rack she turns looking back up at him "So you want to head out or do you want to stay here?"

"I think we're in the way here, and it's so quiet here, besides... Your mum doesn't know you regained your memories, and I am certain those at home miss you too" he tips his head into her hand and smiles resting a hand on her hip

Tinania nods looking down before she shakes her head "Let head back home, our home though." slipping pass him she doesn't dare allow him to ask her any question.

"All right, uhm, my bike is at your mum's place, detour to get it?" he follows after her scooping up the ruck and roll with one hand and his spear with the other

Tinania stops thinking about it for a moment before she nods "Yea." she pauses again making sure she had everything before looking back towards him "I think I have everything with me. If not I'll come back and get it later."

Surion chuckles "You had nothing but you and your clothing when we came here." following her he smiles "Lead on mela, I'm following your lead"

Tinania smiles then takes his hand "Well if that the case." she didn't really say anything else as they both vanished from his home with a loud cracking noise.

Appearing minutes later right outside the haven she smiles letting his hand go. She shook her head trying to rid herself of feeling slightly dizzy. She hadn't done that trick in over five months so it felt strange to do it again. Looking around she laughs "Least I got it right this time. Last time I was in the air on my hover disc when I had to do that. I nearly broke my bed as I fell on it."

Surion barely had enough time to blink. He looks around "Woah I remember a time you did that to me, I certainly wasn't expecting it then either." he wanders to where he'd parked his bike a couple days previous and tied the other items to it.

Tinania had an amused look on her face as she followed him "Yea I'm just full of surprises what can I say?" with a small giggle she places her hands behind her back as she watches him.

Surion turns and reaches pulling her close "I love you, so very much... " he kisses her softly purring happily. He'd dig out her helmet soon enough, it was always on the bike, for just then he wanted to kiss her

Running her fingers along his cheeks returning his kiss with her own tender kiss she pulls back alittle smiling "I love you too mela." pausing she cringes then shakes her head "Mela um, my helmet at our home..." she bites at her bottom lip trying to figure out what to do.

"Nah, I always held hope in finding you, I never wanted to be unprepared" he smiles leaving a hand on her hip as he turns reaching over the bike to grab both the helmets

Shaking her head she lifts her hand to run it through his hair "You really are prepared. And here I thought I would have to go inside my home to borrow Aunt Xem's helmet." taking her helmet from him she leans against him for a moment just enjoying being in his arms for a moment.

"I missed you, I wanted Lady Kalika and Visha to help me find you, but you came back before I had to.." he kisses her forehead and peers at the haven before speaking again "Whenever you are ready to go" he nods

Tinania closes her eyes listening to his voice before she smiles. Turning she glances at the haven. Biting at her bottom lip she looks back at him "You think I should go in there?"

"Well would mum worry about you if you just kinda disappeared again? We we didn't exactly tell anyone where we were going yesterday" He watches her "It's your choice"

Tinania frowns then looks back towards the manor. She didn't want to worry her mother, she had done enough of that to last them all a lifetime. Shaking her head she step away from him as she turned "Come on, lets go let mum know I'm okay."

Surion nods and hooks the helmet on the handlebar "Then lets go do that then, and then we can go home... Rest, relax, and if you are still tired, take a nap"

Tinania nods then pushes a hand through her hair as she walks up the steps to the door. Biting at her bottom lip she breaths in slowly before knocking on it a few times before popping the door open "Hello? Mum? Its me Nani?" stepping into the home she looks around.

Krista arches a brow as she peeks out of the study "Tinania? I thought you were still upstairs in you room." she steps fully out of the study resting her body against the doorframe as she placed her hands on her hip slightly confused.

"We went for a fly, sorry mum" he looks a lil sheepish. "went to a peaceful place I know" he slips through the door behind Nani and wraps his arms around her waist from behind resting his chin on her shoulder

Krista nods then shrugs pushing off the doorframe "So long as your safe then its okay. Would you two like some breakfast?" she walks towards them only to stop at the couch to lean against it.

Tinania smiles relaxing back Surion as she turns her head alittle to look at him "Breakfast sound good actually could I get a scrambled eggs, toast, and a side of fresh fruit like always." she closes her eyes wondering if her mother cause on yet.

Krista smiles then nods "Sure coming right.." she stops when she realizes that Tinania spoke something that only yesterday she wouldn't know anything about. Her eyes widen as she looked to Surion wondering if he heard her or if she was just hearing things.

Surion just smiles widely "Breakfast sounds great mum, didn't eat much at mom's place, there's boxes everywhere you walk" he purrs happily and holds her close

Krista shook her head then frowns "Wait what? What going on at your home? And would someone please explain to me when Nani got her memory?" her hands were on her hips as her ears twitched alittle. She was excited but was just holding it in.

Tinania giggles then runs her hand along Surion's cheek "We'll explain over breakfast. Surion right, we didn't eat, and I'm starving." pulling away from Surion even through she didn't want to she takes her mothers hand leading her towards the kitchen.

Surion follows after her stuffing his hands in his pocket "Lots to explain, and lots of time to do it in." He nods purring happily and watching her follow after Krista

Tinania looks over her shoulder at Surion nodding before she turns back taking a seat as Krista goes about gathering everything she needed "I got my memory during the night. It was a very painful process and I never want to go through it again. It seem just being around Surion was causing my brain to go into overload."

Krista frowns then turns looking at Surion, her hand on her hip "Why didn't you just come back home if she was in that much pain." for the first time in since Tinania's grounding Krista sounded slightly angry, but not at Surion, just at the fact she couldn't help Tinania when she was in pain.

"my mind was on helping her pain, giving her my healing energy, not taking her anywhere, besides the fact that I would have had to carry her from there to here in the air, the hover disc is at home. While that is not all that hard, I couldn't give her energy and fly, I'd risk passing out in the air." He tried to explain that as he leaned on the table

Tinania looked at her mother slightly shocked that she seem even just alittle angry. Biting at her bottom lip she shook her head "Mum there wouldn't have been any way of bringing me home. It was to dangerous." she looks at Surion taking his hand in hers.

Krista sighs then shakes her head "I'm sorry, I just worry, after what that young man did to you. I just don't want to lose you that is all." she falls quiet for a moment as she crack and egg mixing it in a bowl "Anyways why is everything packed at your home Surion? Your parents moving?"

"Uhmm dad never came back from the cliffs, he's not going to... As for mom, I'm not sure I was a lil surprised, I will say she left the cliffs before I did, Mom and Dad separated" he sighs and gives Nani's hand a squeeze

Tinania looked up at Surion her face not only showing shock but surprise. Biting her lip she shook her head then looks down, she didn't know what to say. She couldn't believe it had happen.

Krista eyebrows shock up before she coughed "Sometimes life tosses you a loop. You either give or move on. Let your mother know if she ever wishes to talk she knows how to get ahold of me." with a nod she flips the eggs over before grabbing two pieces of toast popping them into the toaster.

"She probably will, she's not really even talked to me since she went home. So hopefully she'll stop her seclusion" He leans on his elbow and looks over at Nani smiling softly

Tinania played with her ring shaking her head. In her eyes they seem so perfect. She knew that Mr. Torvil loved Ms. Ala, to hear they they parted just didn't make any sense to her. Biting at her lip she didn't say anything as she stood then ran out of the kitchen and up the stairs.

Krista frowns placing the eggs on the plate before she placed she looked down at the pan "I think he brain just got rattled. See even as a baby Rinion was in her life. So she always figured we were together. Its the same with your parents, even as a child they were together and to that how she thought things were to be. sighing she shook her head "When things change on her she never takes to well to them."

"I don't know what is with my parents right now... but I want to see if she's ok" he didn't wait for a reply as he hurried after her "Nani? Melamin?" he was worried, he didn't know why she had taken off

Tinania was actually sitting in her room out on the balcony. Her wings fluttered behind her as she looked down at her pants "How could two people in love with other just stop loving each other. It just doesn't make sense." she bites her bottom lip then tilts her head back now scared as she thought more into it.

Krista watches Surion run off then sighs shaking her head before she place the plates filled with food on the table. Leaning back she closes her eyes hoping Tinania wouldn't run from this fear she knew all to well had just form.

Surion walked silently into the room and up behind her "Nani, it seems from my observation they'd been growing apart ever since we got called to the cliffs for war. It just is something that happened" he says quietly reaching out touching her shoulder softly

Tinania looked up at him then back down at the ground closing her eyes "Surion, what if that happens to us?" she was so quiet that she wasn't even sure if he heard her.

"I won't let it, Nani, I've given you my vow to be with you till the end of my days and beyond and I mean it." He walks around her and puts his finger under her chin tipping her head back up "As the waters flow through the rivers and the wind blows through the skies and my love is here for you, I promise that to you.."

Tinania closes her eyes hearing his words then nods alittle. Standing she wraps her arms around his waist hiding her face in his hair. She didn't speak another word, she just held him. She knew he was speaking the truth she was just scared.

"Never will I leave you, and if you leave I will search, I will not sleep till I find you... believe me, you can ask your Aunt Eirnae... she tricked me into sleep while I was looking for you" he chuckles slightly and holds her close to him

Tinania shook her head "I would never leave you Surion. I can't, the thought scares me." Pulling back her eyes were filled with tears "I couldn't leave you, it would tear me apart." her voice was trembling before she hide her face again.

Surion holds her in silence for a few minutes letting her work her tears out and then pulled away and tipped her head up and presses his lips against her pouring his love into a kiss for her

Feeling his lips on her the tears rolled down her cheeks as she brought her hands up to rest on his neck pulling him close. Although her with was still trembling it didn't stop her from returning the passionate kiss.

Surion held her there for a time and then broke away from the kiss but stayed close "I love you... It'll be ok" he gives her a supportive smile and brushes the tears from her cheek

Tinania nods then closes her eyes for a moment "Okay.." laying her head back on his shoulder she kisses his neck not willing to move away just yet.

Krista tapped on the door then smiles alittle "She okay Surion?" she was alittle worried when they didn't come back down that Tinania had tried to run again.

Surion looks over Nani's head and nods "Back down in a few mum... " he looks down at her "Ready to go eat mela?" he asks her softly in Elven and brushes her hair from her face

Krista nods then turns leaving them as she heads back down the hall. She pauses for a moment only to check on her husband who was still sleeping. With a smile she slips back down the stairs heading back to the kitchen to wait on them.

Tinania looks up at him then nods. Burying her face back in his hair she didn't really make an attempt to leave his arms even though she knew she should.

"All right lets go then" he wraps his arm around her waist and motions her towards the door "Eat chat with your mum and then go home and relax" he says after Krista left the room

Tinania nods then turns in his arms before stepping away. Breathing in she takes his hand giving it a gentle squeeze before heading towards the door.

He returns the squeeze and follows after her, he hummed a familiar tune to him it wasn't he mating song, rather a tune he always remembered from when he was a toddler that Nani had sung. He follows her tot he kitchen then waits for her to sit before he does

Krista looks up smiling to them both before she pours orange juice for Tinania's glass "What can I get you to drink Surion?" lifting her hand she ruffles Tinania hair in a motherly way.

Tinania giggles as she takes a seat try to fix her hair again. Looking over at Surion she smiles then looks at the food tilting her head debating where she wanted to start.

Surion chuckles "Just some juice works, thanks mum" he digs into his own meal, he had no concerns which food was the first he ate, he was simply hungry.

Pouring a glass of juice also for Surion Krista takes a seat then arches a brow watching Tinania for a moment "You going to eat hun? Or are you not hungry anymore?" picking up a piece of toast she took a bite out of it.

Tinania shook her head then smiles "No I'm still hungry, you just forgot one thing." standing she walks over to the fridge looking through it until she finds the maple syrup. With a smile she walks back over and pours it all over her egg before she finally digs into them.

Krista shakes her head laughing "She always gotta have them that way. If we take her out to breakfast she won't eat them like that. But at home she gotta have the maple syrup on her egg. She is a strange child."

Tinania gasps then blushes shaking her head "I am not, blame Nana. She the one who got me hook on this." taking another bite of the egg she licks the syrup off her lips.

Surion laughs and shakes his head "Nani that just makes you all the more sweet in my eyes" he watches her heat for a min and then finishes his meal. He purrs softly and waits for her

Krista arches a brow at Surion then laughs shaking her head "Young love.." lifting her glass to her lips she finishes her drink then stands "I think I'm going to go lay down again. Tinania I expect you at one point to stop by and let your father know your also okay alright?" turning she places her dishes in the sink to clean later.

Tinania nods then smiles "Alright mum I will. Have a good nap." watching her mum leave she turns looking at Surion as she places her fork down on her empty plate "Okay now I feel better."

Surion watches Krista exit then nods and turns to Nani "Shall we head home then?" he asks motioning towards the front door and standing up. He simply wanted to get home and relax and get comfortable once more

Tinania smiles then nods "Yea I bet home needs some major cleaning. I wonder how much work I'm going to have." picking up her plate and Surion's she walks over placing them in the sink before she turns looking at him.

Surion laughs "If they left the place a mess then I'll make THEM clean it" he laughs and heads out of the house snagging his boots as he moved and then holding the door open for her

Tinania shakes her head slipping pass him and down the few steps "Nah I want to, it will feel good to clean my home again." turning she looks up at him holding her hand out.

Surion pulls the door shut behind him and takes her hand "If you wish that mela" he follows her towards the bike purring contently and more then ready to get on with their life together

Tinania smiles then nods "I do..." heading towards the bike she picks up her helmet picking it up.

Surion laughs "All right" he smiles and pulls on his own helmet and climbs on the bike straightening it and kick starting it then waiting for her to get on

Pulling her helmet on she clasp it into place as she climbs onto the back of the back. Wrapping her arms around his waist she rest her head against his back closing her eyes.

Surion revved the bike and then headed through the haven grounds towards home, he was happy to be heading there and it felt right with Nani with him and not worrying about her whereabouts.

Visiting Krista

She'd been away for a while, her old home empty, all her possessions had been moved and the Levain shop in the care of another. She was headed home now, well what was to become her home in Kazeha. She didn't look much like "herself" her hair shorter and pulled up and now black once more, she still wore a lot of black and her style somewhat similar, but it was a new start, and she wanted to start that new start visiting a friend... And with that in mind she stopped on the front stoop of the haven and knocked.

Krista seem to had changed over the time also. Her once blond hair was once again orange only with blond highlights. Normal straight it was now all curls that fell around her face. Glancing up towards the door she arches a brow before she stood brushing off her jean dress.

Walking over to the door she pops it open smiling "Hi can I help you?"

She paused taking in changes in her friend "Hey there, looks like we both have seen some changes" she chuckles and stuffs her hands in her pockets.

Krista tilts her head arching her brow alittle. She was trying to figure out how this person knew she had gone through some changes. Looking her over her eyes widen before her jaw dropped "Ala?"

She laughs "Yeah, Ala, but a new start Ala, I have changed my name, or rather my people have... Am I that much of a shock?" she looks down at herself and then back at Krista

Krista laughs then places her hands on her hips "Well let see, last time I saw you your hair was silver, and much longer. So yes you are a shock." stepping to the side she looks down at herself "And I haven't changed all that much, just the hair. But you know me I always change it."

"Yeah many a change I can't count them all, but they still look good... So can I come in or you gonna leave me on the stoop" she grins a silly grin as she teases her friend "Not that your stoop isn't lovely or anything" she winks

Krista smirks then laughs "Yea you can come in." turning she steps away from the door heading straight for the kitchen "So what have you been up to as of late?"

"Went to the hidden city for a while" she follows Krista into the building pushing the door shut behind her "Needed a new start, and they helped me get that, after all that's happened it was called for."

Krista doesn't speak about what had happen. She had gather from what Tinania had told her what was going on "Sometimes a new start is a good thing. mean look at me? Went from working for a killer to having a pretty good life." grabbing a glass she holds it toward Ala "Here blood is in the fridge." grabbing another for herself she pours herself a glass of ice tea.

Shicala laughs and takes the glass "Would you kill me if I wanted what you are having? I haven't really had much blood in a while, not that I don't like it, but you know.. new start from one end to the other... speaking of which the name I've taken now is Shicala, but you can still call me Ala if you want"

Looking at her surprise she smiles "Alright help yourself." she steps to the side as she takes a sip of her tea. Holding the glass between both her hands she nods "Shicala, very nice. But I will continue to call you Ala only because it does have that nick in your new name."

Shic laughs "Yes it does, and I don't mind, after all you are a friend" she pours herself some iced tea and then turns and leans on the counter and looks at Krista "So what have you kept yourself busy doing? After all I haven't seen ya in a while, you must be up to something"

Krista shrugs then smiles "Got my job back at ME and F. So been working alot. Also been doing some changes to the DarkAngel wing of this manor. Other then that not to much."

She quirks a brow "So that reopened? That's awesome, wow I thought when it closed it was gone for good..." she Turns her head in the direction of the spoken wing "What kind of changes?"

Krista smirks then arches a brow "I have a feeling ME and F won't be going anywhere. And just alittle bit of everything. Can't get up there though as I have a blocking spell that only allows me and Rinion in for now." with a wink she takes another sip of her tea.

Shic laughs "now that sounds kinky to me, you planning an extension to your family too now?" she grins widely wiggling her dark brows at Krista as she turns her head back to Krista

Krista blushes then laughs "Not as of right now. And the spell is up only to stop our to pa'e kids from getting up there. Don't want them deciding to paint on the wall." shaking her head she glares at Ala for a moment then smiles.

"Hey you can't blame a girl for asking!" She grins wider and cracks up laughing "After all you are a she... and he is a he.... one plus one can equal three" she pauses taking a drink from her glass "How many little Pae'il you have running around here now?"

Krista laughs shaking her head. Leave it to her friend to come up with that. Running her finger lightly over the rim of her glass she smiles "Two and they are troublemakers."

"When aren't they? even Estra was a handful when she was young... I suppose that's why I didn't argue when she wanted to stay on the isle..." She nods "So work really been what's been occupying your time I presume?"

Krista giggles then smiles "Yes but see these two a demon pa'e. And they work so well together that half the time I end up giving up." placing her empty glass down she rest her hands on the counter "Been watching my sister Mel fall farther into the darkness. Although she still seems the same."

"Mel? Howso, what has she been doing to get further into darkness?" Shic put her half empty glass on the counter and looked at her friend with concern in her eyes

Looking down at the floor she bites at her bottom lip "She been with this man for awhile. They seem real close and he been training and helping her develop her powers. She changed her whole look and now seems to be able to hide everything." shaking her head she sighs "Maybe I'm just overreacting."

Shic listened for a while and nods and soon pushes away from the counter and walks over to her friend "It's hard to say if you are or aren't, but you are her sister, you are in your right to worry about her"

Krista nods then looks up "It's not like Mel to keep things from me. Everyone else yea, but me no." shaking her head she shrugs "Maybe this is something she wants to do on her own."

"Can you blame her? Kal may be my twin, but I have done very little with her over the time I've known her, just some... I suppose we all have our day..." she shrugs off her light coat and drops it over a chair faint reminders of her past still littered her arm but they were no where near as bad as they once had been

Krista nods then sighs "Yea even as close as we have gotten there is still have huge gap where we didn't know each other." looking back up she shrugs "Maybe she'll come around."

"Maybe she will and maybe she won't but don't hold it against her, after all deep down I'm sure she still loves you" Shic reaches over and rests her hand on Krista's shoulder

Krista nods then smiles "Yea I know she does." shaking her head she laughs "Anyways yea that pretty much all that has been happening to me."

Nodding she moves to stand beside Krista "Sounds like a handful of things, All I've been doing is getting a fresh start and moving my home to Kazeha, sorry I didn't visit sooner though, I doubt you would have wanted to see me before I went to the city I was kinda... mopy"

Krista nods then smiles "From what Tinania told me yea I gathered that much. But don't be sorry, it was something you had to do." shaking her head she laughs as she pushes off the counter.

Shic laughs and nods "it was, and I think I'm better for it, now I'm ready for a new start, so tell me what if anything has changed at ME&F, I haven't been there for a long while, I don't know if Sur has either"

Krista smiles then tilting her head she turns heading towards the living room "Everything has changed, but that is all I can say. You would have to check it out." taking a seat on the couch she rest her head on the back "It's interesting working there now."

"Didn't you always think it was interesting though? After all I can't see you working in some place you are bored of" she followed after Krista and then took a seat on the edge of the couch looking at her friend relaxing

Krista laughing sticking her tongue out "True, but my interesting I mean its not like before but in a way it is." with a shrug she smiles.

Shic shakes her head "I don't have a job anymore, I'm trying to figure out what I should do if anything now, it's almost tempting to just... do nothing you know?"

Krista laughs then nods "So why not just do nothing? After all you ran a shop for awhile. Now you should just enjoy life the way you wish to" shaking her head she leans back relaxing alittle.

"I may just, I mean... I have to get settled in my new home too, so a break seems justified, I had to move though... it was just too many memories for me to deal with" She looks out a window with a small smile

Krista nods not saying anything. She didn't want to bring up anything as she knew how painful memories could be. Shaking her head she smiles "Yea you should just break for awhile."

"I think we all should now and then" she nods and smiles, "so tell me, your relationship is thriving yes?" it was the last thing she wanted, her friend's relationship to fall apart like her own had.

Krista nods then smiles "Yes very much so. Rinion acts as if everyday is out last." she smiles looking down at her ring as she thinks about him.

"Your last... hopefully those are good lasts, not bad ones... But then, if they were bad ones you wouldn't be smiling as you are now" she looks at her friend with a smile... "Savor every happy moment you get"

Krista blushes then nods alittle "I am, I couldn't see myself without Rinion in my life anymore. He my other half. Now and forever." looking up she smiles then wrinkles her nose up "But anyways, enough about love."

"Yes love is a topic I don't want to dwindle on... your turn to bring a topic up" she grins "Ask anything you want" she laughs

Krista smirks then fars quiet as she thinks for a few minutes. With a smile she tilts her head to the side "Did Surion mention to you that Tinania broke our curse?"

Shic looked at her friend, blinking, her eyes coming to rest on the marking "She did? wow... how did she manage that? Oh uhm .." she laughs "that would make the answer no he didn't"

Krista giggles then shrugs "I haven't gotten the full details from her. All she told me was she broke it the night of her..." she stops refusing to say the word. Even now knowing that Tinania was back it was still hard to speak outloud. Shaking her head she coughs alittle "She currently from what I have gather working on the potion for me, mel, and her grandmother."

"Now that would be awesome, not having to worry about the curse anymore... So do you think that might mean grandkids some time? It'd be your first" she gives a teasing grin "Don't let the thought make you feel old now" she winks

Krista laughs then winks at her "I look far older then you think Ala. I just tell everyone I'm 21 because I look it in human years. Remember I'm part elf." shaking her head she smiles "I'm not sure we'll have to wait and see from what Tinania told me she waiting until your son is ready."

"A dragonic unready? His.. yeah well someone had a talk with him about readiness once before, he did say he would support if it were to happen, so I hope he is ready, it's possible to happen" she pauses "as for your age, I suppose that's true... does that make you an ol fart then?" she grins teasingly

Krista glared at her for a moment then shakes her head "No not in elven years it does. I'm still a young elf to my culture." shaking her head she pushes her curls from her face "I know Tinania wishes to have children, but I think she doesn't know how to tell Surion."

Shic nods and smiles she thinks for a moment "Well as her mother give her advice, I'd say suggest she just say it, might be easiest.. I can't say for sure but I can't see him pushing her into it if he doesn't know that she wants it"

Krista nods the laughs "We're talking about Tinania remember? She doesn't often express what she wants." shaking her head she sigh "That a trait I wish she didn't pick up from me."

Shic laughs, "I suppose that's true, but least if you tell her... she can't say you didn't tell her, even if she doesn't follow the advice, what we get from our parents is about par and partial to what we hope our kids don't get from us... if that made any sense"

Krista smirks then winks "No who showing her age?" laughing she nods "Yea I'll talk to her, but I'm starting to think Surion will have to be blunt with her."

"That will have to be advice I give him... so you talk to Tinania, I will pull Surion aside perhaps we can cause magic to happen" she grins and wiggles her brows in a silly manor

Krista giggles like a school girl before she smiles "you know those two are either gonna curse us or love us for poking at them." laying her head back on the couch she winks "But yes I'll talk to her."

"Well you remember the day we sat down here... listening to them, laughing, talking and conspiring together... and then went up there and walked in on them?" Shic smirks at the memory... it was a good memory to her

Krista laughs then shakes her head "How could I forget? I think Surion blush so red he wanted to hide. Tinania if she could have disappeared I think she would have."

Shic burst out laughing, "I'm surprised Sur didn't... but that was fun." she sighs "Bet he would have if he could have repeated the day..." she smiles "We make good match makers"

Krista nods then giggles "Aye that we do. I'm very glad Tinania with Surion. He treats her so well. It was the one thing I wanted in her life."

"To be honest I'm just glad she was back when he returned, he was worried about her, not to mention he had more then one advance at the cliffs, but he stayed faithful... I'm proud of him" She smiles and flops back closing her eyes

Nodding Krista smiles "I would have to agree. I was so scared that without her memory she would go out and find someone. I was so glad when Surion showed up only an hour after she returned home."

"Timing was good then. I think once I left the cliffs though it was only a matter of time before he wanted to return as well, I knew he wouldn't stay there, his life here was too important to him." Shic pauses "And that I am so very glad for"

Krista nods then smiles "Yes it is a good thing. It will be sad to see how he will take it when Tinania has to leave for awhile." closing her eyes her ears twitch alittle.

Shic opens an eye "Where does she have to go?" her friend's comment made her curious about this idea, Tinania having to go away

Krista bites her bottom lip then sighs "Tinania decide she wanted to train to become a better healer. So she has to return to my mother's village." opening her eyes she shakes her head. "She really wants this but she doesn't want to leave Surion behind."

Shic nods and sits up "when does she plan to do this?" the wheels were turning in her mind as she asked this

Krista shrugs shaking her head "She doesn't know. My mother is suppose to said a message when she is ready for Tinania to come to the village." tilting her head she arches a brow "Why?"

"Well we are supposed to be planning their wedding... perhaps that's something that might help them with having to be apart again" She nods

Krista thought about this for a few before she nods agreeing "Yes maybe planning the wedding again will help out. I would hate to see Tinania not want to leave because Surion being upset. I want her to go because it would be a great thing for her."

"I think it's a good thing for her to excel in what she is good at" Shic sat up again "So now the tricky part, combining all the traditions into one wedding"

Krista shakes her head then sighs "That the tricky part. I have yet to figure that out myself. They are all so different it seems almost impossible."

"I think the Dragonic will be easy enough, that's just the braids and something they can do alone at night, The Kerrsalian is a lil more tricky I think" she thinks

Nodding Krista thinks over Tinania's blood "The elven and fairy are nearly the same. But still are very tricky. The human is simple as its just a normal wedding." wrinkling her nose up she shakes her head.

"Ok perhaps we should start with the where and build from there" Shic looks around for something to write on, she wasn't sure if she'd find a notepad, but there was hope

Krista laughs then shakes her head "That was simple, didn't they both mention that wanted a beach wedding?" sitting up she pulls her feet under her bottom.

She pauses and looks up "Yeah, I think you are right about that... Ok so beach, man this is tough, so human and Dragonic are easy enough, tell me about the faery weddings" she looks at Krista

Krista shrugs shaking her head "I don't know anything about them. Tinania knows about them. She say there similar to Elven weddings. But even that I might be wrong about." lay back she sighs "This is not going to be easy."

"Tell me about it, Kerrsalian, that's somewhat easy but intermingling it will be tricky, by how you said that it sounds like their weddings are intricate" Shic bites her lip with her still pointed incisor

Krista nods then shakes her head once again "I think we need to pull them into this. Who knows they might know how to combine this all together."

Shic nods "Definitely Krista, I really don't think we'd be able to do this without them" she taps her chin

Laying her head back down she nods once again "Who knows what if they decide they don't want anything complicated? I mean I know Rinion after all the planning just eloped."

"Then we let them have something simple, I hope they dont elope though, to be honest" she makes a face at that idea

Krista laughs then nods "I hope they don't either. And yes something simple. Maybe we can pull something out of each culture. That would be the best way to go about it."

"I think you are right, hopefully they can help us figure this out" Shic yawns and stretches "Hey I couldn't crash here tonight could I for the night? it's a long way to Kazeha still"

Krista smiles then stands "Sure you can, there a spare room here in the main part of the manor you can use." pointing towards the door that is right by the study she nods "Right through that door."

Shic smiles and follows suit to stand up "Awesome thanks, we can brainstorm more tomorrow" she nods

Nodding she glances at the clock "I should get some rest myself. Busy day tomorrow." with a nod she smiles "You sleep well Ala." with a wink she vanishes from the main room.

Shicala smiles and wanders off into the spare room to settle in for the night "Night everyone" she says softly

Walks n' Talks ~ Part 1

Surion wanders through the house humming happily, stray lock of his bangs tucked over one ear, he had a plan, he just hoped his love wasn't too busy. He peers into the rooms following his senses to locate her.. It was a nice day out, not hot but not cold, just right for an outing. "Mela?"

Tinania was sitting in the study working on some papers. Her ipod was up loud so she didn't hear Surion call her. Tapping her pen to the beat she lifts her arms above her head for a moment before going back to work.

Surion stops, he watches her for a moment a smile spreading across his lips, he still couldn't get over how beautiful she was, he considered himself lucky, he looked forward tot he day he grew up too, but he was patient. After a few minutes he crosses the room and stops behind her chair crossing his arms and leaning on the back "Hello Melamin" he says , still not loud but perhaps his presence would draw her attention to him

Tinania heard the voice that time. Pulling the earphones off she turns smiling at Surion "Hey Surion. Sorry I was caught up on working on papers for school." turning in the chair she tilts her head to the side "Did you want me for something?"

Surion chuckles "All work and no play makes for a rather dull day" he lifts a hand and runs his fingers along her cheek softly "I thought perhaps we might like to get out of the house? You need a break, and it's a nice day" He smiles waiting for her reply, his eyes twinkling happily.

Tinania looks at the papers biting at her bottom lip. She knew she should really get them done, but she missed being able to have fun. Turning back she gives him another nod "Alright I guess it couldn't hurt. Even for just alittle bit."

"I promise I'll let you finish your work later, I wont tie you up all day... unless you want me to..." He stands upright taking his weight off the chair and holds a hand out to her, "You get to decide, your car, or my bike"

Tinania takes his hand purring as she stood. Stepping close she shakes her head "You know I like your bike, but it depend on how cold it is out there." she turns looking out the window.

"That's why I'm letting you decide, it's not really cold out there but I dont have your heritage, so I dont feel the weather the same way you do" he pulls her closer and kisses her and then motions towards her study door "Ladies first"

Smirking she pokes him before turning away "I think we'll take the car. Just because I know I'm safe while I'm driving" with a wink she walks toward the door. Turning back she looks at him before shaking her head "And no water trick okay?"

Surion laughs "We're safe on the bike too, but this way we have backup if it cools off more..." he smiles and follows after her "And no water tricks, I want a romantic and fun outing with you" he nods the lock of hair falling off his ear and over his face once more. His baggy pants and tank top left his top a little cool, but he had his jacket near the door covering the basket of food he prepared

Tinania arches he brow for a moment, she was curious as to what he had up his sleeve. Shaking her head she grabs her jacket before holding her hand out "Come on Dragon boy, you lead. After all you seem to have the day planned out."

Surion laughs and pulls her through the hall snatching up her keys and tossing them to her lightly "One day I'll be Dragon man I hope" he teases, he knew he was younger then her and he'd yet to come up with the perfect nickname for her since her return so he just simply jested her nickname for him. Soon he holds her coat out with a slight playful bow

Catching the keys she smirks shaking her head. Slipping into her coat she turns wrapping her arms around his neck "You'll always be Dragon boy. Its cute so there." leaning against the door she looks up at him.

"Then I'll just have to live with that now wont I" he says with a grin putting one hand on the door above her shoulder peering straight into her eyes from the short distance they were apart "Remember what we did on one of our first dates Mela?" he asks more softly then his previous words.

Tinania nods then giggles "A walk on the beach, and a picnic. Followed by a swim in the lake. Yea I remember it like it was yesterday. But its to cold for swimming.." she tilts her head as her wings flutter slightly behind her.

Lifting her finger she runs it along his bottom lip "Why do you ask?" some of her hair falls into her face as she looks up at him with a curious look on her face.

"Well I know it's too cold for swimming, but I thought we could do the other things in that list, a nice walk... and a picnic, and if it gets a little bit cool out we could take our picnic to a warmer location..." he tips his head against her finger and kisses it

Giggling she pokes his nose then winks "Like the girl club house?" pushing off the door she leans up brushing her lips against his "Alright well I'll follow you then." she holds the keys out to him "And your driving then."

Surion laughs "There or the apartment or wherever we can find solitude" he kisses her softly then pushes away from the door taking the keys from her and then grabbing his coat slides that on before grabbing the nearly overflowing basket, he'd made a lot of stuff, mainly to give her the choice of whatever she wanted to eat. "Shall we?"

Tinania looks at the basket arching a brow, okay he really did have everything planned out. With a laugh she turns popping the door open stepping out of the house. She closed her eyes as she felt the wind brush her skin, she truly did enjoy that feeling. Looking over her shoulder she smiles "If I didn't know any better Surion. I would say you were trying to make me fall in love with you all over again."

Surion pulls the door shut behind him and wraps an arm around her waist as she slowed to let the wind brush past her "Is that even possible? I think I've done it at least twice, if it is you better believe I'd endeavor to do it again, I love you Nani, and nothing can change that" he looks at her with a smile

Laughing she shook her head before she pokes at his side "What am I not worthy enough to woo again?" she playfully pouts at him before she burst into a giggle.

Slipping away from him she ran toward the car before sitting on the hood of it waiting for him. She like teasing him, she missed it. She been so caught up in trying to catch up with work she forgot what fun was.

Surion laughs letting her slip from his grip, he reaches the car shortly after her and walks his fingers up her leg as he rounds the passenger side and opens the door. The basket made it's way into the safest and most out of the way place he could find and then he looked over at her.

"Always worth wooing, and believe me, I will all the time..." he smiles and holds the door open for her

Shivering she closes her eyes for a moment before she slips off the hood of the car "Your a tease, but then again so am I." she allows her finger to run down his shirt before she slips into the car relaxing in the seat.

"I wouldn't have it any other way" he says softly as he closes her door and gets into the car on the other side, he pauses a moment glancing at the house and then slides in closing the door. "Off to the beach we go, please Nani if it gets too cold just say something ok?" he looks at her as he starts the engine

Tinania smirks then wrinkles her nose at him "No I was going to let myself freeze. Come on Surion you know I would tell you the moment I got cold." reclining the seat she closes her eyes as she runs her fingers across her stomach playing with her belly ring.

Surion smiles feeling reassured and then pulls away from the house "Off to the beach we go" a moment later any silence was filled with the happy hum of a Dragonic male who was pondering old memories, things from their past as far back as he could recollect.

Tinania was enjoying the ride, she was able to relax for the most part. She allows herself to daydream abit about the memories of there first date. That was an interesting that she would never be able to forget.

Surion stopped the car near where they had first walked the beach and cut the engine "We're here Mela" he says looking over at her as he pocketed the keys, he leans over and kisses her cheek and then gets out moving to round the car and get her door. Whether or not she wanted him to he was going to try and beat her to opening her door, he was in a good mood.

Tinania opens her eyes looking up at him before she shook her head. She didn't want to move just yet. Pouting she lifts her arms above her head "I'm staying right here for now. I rather like it just laying here in the seat."

"All right then... I'll ponder my thoughts right over there" he gives a coy and playful grin leaving the door open and putting his hands in his pockets saunters slowly to the edge of the sand staring out over the water

Arching her brow she sat up alittle. That was a first, tilting her head she shakes her head. She really didn't want to get up, but she wanted to be at his side at the same time. Biting her bottom lip she frowns.

He wondered if his next words would attract her interest or curiosity, without turning he muses aloud "I wonder what a clutch would look like birthed by Nani and fathered by me" different ideas of appearances had been playing in his mind for some time, after all, if one didn't know better it'd be hard to tell he or his siblings were not full Dragonic.

Her attention was indeed caught. her eyes widen alittle before she slips out of the car closing the door. She didn't go to him though, she remained at the car just staring at him slightly shocked. Did he really say that or was she dreaming.

She bit her lip hard enough to draw blood, she she wince she knew she wasn't dreaming.

Surion picked up the scent of the blood and looked over his shoulder at her, the breeze blowing his hair half across his face "You ok Mela?" he asks seeing her stand there. Pulling a hand from his pocket he holds it out to her inviting her to join him with a soft smile

Tinania nod wiping the blood from her lip. She looks down at his hand before she moves toward him taking his hand. She didn't say anything she just looked at him slightly curious.

"I remember..." he pauses pulling her close and wrapping his arm around her waist looking out over the water "The first time we came here, so concerned, talking about temptations, controlling our natural self. A lot has happened and I'm so glad we have each other..." he purrs softly

Tinania lays her head on his chest looking out at the water before she looks up at him "What did you mean by what you said earlier?" she pulls back slightly tilting her head to the side as she lifts her hand to run it though his hair.

"Earlier? While you were in the car?" he pauses looking at her smiling ""I can't help but wonder, after all Nani, you told me you wouldn't have children, allow yourself to even, until you were able to solve your curse..." he pulls his other hand from his pocket and reaches over running a finger along what remained of her tattoo "And you succeeded in that goal... breaking the curse"

Nodding she closes her eyes for a moment before opening them again "Yes I know....I just figured you weren't ready for kids." she looks down biting lightly at her bottom lip.

She couldn't believe he was saying this. She bit at her bottom lip again only to wince drawing blood. Okay she knew she wasn't dreaming.

Surion moved forward a bit wanting to walk as they talked "Nani, I told you once before, I would support you no matter what, I decided long ago, if the time came then so be it, I was then and still am ready to support you and whatever our family creates" he grows quiet for a time "I want it to be up to you mostly, when you are ready, this seemed like a good time to talk, after all, life is settling down again, we're both working again and you solved that curse"

Walking with him she wraps her arms around his waist falling quiet. What was stopping her now, she solved the curse. So she didn't have to worry about passing it on to her children. Was it fear that he leave?

Shaking her head she smiles "I want my own kids Surion..." she said this barely above a whisper. She wasn't even sure he understood or heard her.

"Something inside tells me that's something that would make you happy" he smiles and grows silent as his feet touch the sand , he wanted the world for her, and would give it to her

Tinania pulls away from him laughing before she pokes him "It's would." sticking her tongue at him she turning racing down the beach.

Surion laughs letting her get a head start before chasing after her "Careful what you wish for Mela you just may get it..." He grins keeping low and relying on hunter instincts to try and keep up with her

Tinania smirks then jumps into the air hovering there for a few minutes "Oh really and what makes you so sure of this? Planning on catching me?" she was being an imp, she knew it. But she was slightly curious.

"I think I caught you a while ago... But I can catch you again, besides, I would chase you to the ends of Gaia and back... and I think you know it" he laughs letting his slip out through the spots in the coat he wore that his mother had put there

Tinania smirks then shakes her head "Very true, but this is different." she flies toward him before zipping past him flying back down the beach. She was thinking over the idea of kids in her mind that she wasn't paying attention that a boulder was right in her path.

Surion spread his wings wide spinning as she passed, a smile on his face until he noticed her flight path "Nani watch out!" he calls as he took tot he air chasing after her trying with all his might to catch up, last thing he wanted was her hurt, she had a head start though, which didn't help matters as he reached for her

Tinania turns back looking at him only to look back in time to see the boulder in front of her. Gaps she veer upwards just in time not to smack in. She pales as she looks at the boulder trying to not think about how hurt she would have been.

Looking back as Surion she had shock written all over her face.

Surion catches up just after she veers and reaches taking hold of her hand "Are you ok?" he asks, concern written all over his face as if he were an open book for all to read... His eyes double checking over her if only to reassure himself

Tinania nods her bottom lip trembling before she looks up at him "Yea I'm alright. Okay I think I need to seat down. I feel sick.." she was still in shock that she nearly hit the boulder.

Surion pulls her close pulling her onto the sand beside him, his wings folding as he held her close "Sooo...." he didn't know if it was safe to broach the topic they'd been talking about or to hold off till she calmed a little

Tinania hid her face against his neck breathing in slowly. Looking up at him she tilts her head arching a brow, it didn't take long for her to forget about the boulder "So?"

"So, do you want kids sooner then later or later then sooner, after all we do have the rest of our lives, and eventually whenever our mothers finish planning it, a wedding of sorts, I'm leaving this up to you, though I will tell you this is something I am ready to support you on whenever the time is right" He spoke quietly and never let his eyes wonder from hers

Tinania frowns then pokes him squarely in the chest "Don't leave this just up to me Surion. You are my husband you have a say in this too. I want kid you knows this. But leaving this up to me makes me think you don't want kids even if you say you do." she looks away from him crossing her arms under her chest.

Surion closes his eyes, that was the last thing he wanted her to think "Nani, I'm ready to have and support a clutch, and not only a clutch you, nothing would make me happier then strengthening our relationship and bringing us even closer together and I think sharing something that special would do that..." opening his eyes he reaches over touching her chin softly encouraging her to look back at him "You are my wife, and anything we create is ours, I love you, never doubt that or my desire to share special things with you... including this"

Tinania looks back at him biting at her bottom lip before she close her eyes. She felt foolish for thinking he wanted nothing to do with having kids.

Opening her head she crawls over to him remaining on all fours "Is this why you brought me here? Oh did you have something else in mind?" leaning in she brushed her lips against his before pulling back to study his face.

"I wanted to spend time with you, and talk to you about our future, including this... You've been busy, I've been busy, and this place holds sentimental value..." He reaches for her trying to pull her into his lap so he could hold her

Laughing she allows herself to be pulled into his lap. She relax almost instantly closing her eyes as she tilts her head to the side "I miss being like this. Just in your arms. Work been keeping me busy.." she shakes her head then pauses thinking once again.

"mmhmmm" he smiles closing his eyes holding her for a long time before speaking "So what do you think they would look like, after all I'm dragonic, you're fairy..." he spoke in plural not even thinking that perhaps they'd have a situation like his own... one child, he grew up having been around dragonics a fair amount more then people who only had one

Tinania thought about it before she smiles "I'm not too sure, it would be interesting though." moving slightly in his lap she lifts her hands running them though his hair "We would just have to find out won't we?"

"That we would, that we would" he smiles as her fingers comb through his hair "I love you Nani" he leans his head slightly into one of her hands feeling at that moment very content as they sat there together

Tinania smiles turning in his lap. Leaning in she bites at his lip before placing her hand on his neck as she kissed him hard. Pulling back she smiles as she slipped from his lap.

Turning she moves quickly away from him heading back towards the car. She knew it would either confuse him, or he figure it out and chase after her.

Surion purrs loudly as he is kissed and watches her for a second, only a second as she hurries away and then he hops up brushing the sand off his bottom as he hurried after her "Hey sexy wait up!" he says with a smile

Tinania laughs then takes off running towards the car. Reaching it she pops the door open slipping into the passengers side again. Closing her eyes she lifts her arms above her head. She knew she was teasing him, but she couldn't help it. She liked him chasing her.

Surion laughs folding his wings out of the way as he reached the vehicle, he places his hands on the hood for a second looking through the windshield before moving to the opposite side and climbing in "Were you getting a little chilled mela?"

Tinania opens her eyes looking at him, her eyes darken alittle before she shook her head "Nope, not at all." she closed her eyes again as a smile creeps across her lips.

Surion chuckles leaning over and putting a hand on the edge of her seat to lean on "Not cold, but in a car... a little privacy needed?" his eyes skimming over her features as he hovered there

Tinania looks up at him arching a brow, her eyes darken then lighten. With a shrug she smiles "I don't know, you tell me Mela." lifting her hands above her head again she just watched him.

"I'm going to say there's a high leaning towards yes" he chuckles "I have a feeling we may be adjourning our little picnic to an indoor location" he leans down kissing her softly as his free hand reaches towards one of her hands linking fingers

Tinania smiles against his lips as she squeezes his hand. Pulling from the kiss she giggles lifting her body slightly to move in the seat knowing full well she be brushing against him "What makes you think that?"

"Well it's either that or the back seat, cause you have a habit of making this 'dragon boy' lean towards his instincts and what is not easy to control" he growls playfully, shitting his weight a bit

Tinania giggles sitting up alittle her lips brushing against his ears "Hmm poor dragon boy." she nips lightly as his ear before laying back down closing her eyes.

Surion holds his breath a moment before letting it out "Ok, I'm voting the apartment, it's pretty much closer to here then anywhere... Unless you send us somewhere instantly" his words were slightly rushed and filled with the obviousness he was doing his best to control

Tinania laughs as she looks over at the drivers seat. the keys were still there so licking her lips she giggles wishing them away without talking outloud. Looking up she shook her head "I'm not taking us anywhere, and I don't think we could leave anyways."

"You are evil you know that dont you" he says after hearing her words, "then right here it is" he grins coyly and then presses his lips against hers for the moment, their picnic forgotten

Giggling against his lips she vanished out from under him. She reappears in the drivers seat watching him, her eyes were emerald green as a sly smile form on her lips "Hmmm and if I happen to like teasing you?"

Surion turns in the now empty seat and looks at her "You've always liked to tease me, just as much as I have you..." he chuckles "Course right now you are also making it tricky to hold to my word about playing with water...."

Tinania smirks shaking her head "But you promised, so you can't. I although can tease you all I want." towards him she runs a finger over his horn as she nips at his lips "You just gotta figure out how to catch me Surion."

Surion's breath catches, Visha knew he should have made more of his brother's little recipe, but he hadn't.. He didn't react for a moment and then put his hand behind her neck pulling her into a deep kiss his thumb brushing against her earlobe a couple times as he kissed her

Tinania gasp against his lip her hand resting in his hair. Her finger brushing against his horn before she pulls back slightly looking at him. Shaking her head she looks away biting at her bottom lip as she crawls back into the drivers seat.

She didn't this to be like every other time, she wanted this to be special if she even thinking about kid. And jumping Surion in a car was not the way to go about it.

Surion watches her move catching his breath and licking his lips trying to regain control of himself, "What... what do you want to do Mela" he says and then takes another deep breath

Tinania looks at him biting at her bottom lip before she rest her head against the window "I want this to be special. And jumping you in a car isn't." she pauses then looks away closing her eyes.

"Then make it special, we both have the ability to do that... and we have places we can go that are special too..." he reaches a hand over and brushes his finger against her cheek and shoulder

Tinania looks at him then nods slipping into his lap. Making sure the doors were locked she wishes the car back to there home as she made then vanish from it.

Appearing on the couch of their apartment she opens her eyes shaking her head before she tries to slip off his lap.

Surion chuckles holding her for a moment before letting her slide from his lap "Will I ever get used to that power of yours I wonder" he muses and watches her move

Tinania looks over shaking her head "I doubt it, even I'm not use to it." wrapping her arms around her waist she smiles at him just standing there in front of him.

Surion laughs and shrugs his coat off and then scoots forward sitting on the edge of the couch looking up at her, "You know you look so adorable standing there" he grins at her resting his elbows on his knees

Tinania blushes then shakes her head "Do not." her wings flutter behind her as she lifts one hand to run it through his hair. Taking a step closer to him she closes her eyes purring "I miss being with you..."

"Then we must rectify that situation... and you are so" he purrs closing his eyes and letting her run her fingers through his hair he pulled her close wrapping his arms around her waist.

Walks n' Talks ~ Part 2

Tinania smirks laying her head on his shoulder arching a brow "Oh really now? Hmm I wonder how you plan to do that." kissing lightly at his neck she pulls away from his arms. Standing once again she lifts her arms above her head.

"Well spending time here alone with you is a good start, noone around us to disturb us... Not to mention there is the option of turning off all phones so there is absolutely no chance of them ringing either" he waits a moment and then stands lifting her just slightly and setting her down again

Laughing Tinania shakes her head poking his nose lightly "Surion I think people would start looking for us." turning away from him she heads towards the room. "I'm going to change out of these clothes into something more comfortable. I'll be right back."

"Aw let them look, not like they would have to look very hard, after all, most of our families know we have this place" he stretches as she starts to move away "All right mela, then I'm gonna sit right here and wait for you" and with that he flops back down on his bottom and watches her go into the room

Smirking Tinania blows him a kiss before slipping into the room. Closing the door she head over to the closet searching through her clothes. She bites at her lip alittle as she pulls out her favorite pink pair of sweats follow by a simple white tank top.

Surion watches her and then turns to look away once the door shut. he closes his eyes, he felt a touch odd, but didn't want to admit it, instead he focuses his thoughts on his memories of her reaction to his statement. It's when his clothing doesn't feel quite as loose, albeit not tight, he opens his eyes and looks at himself , confusing filling his face for a time, and then a grin. "No way" he whispers to himself and then chuckles standing up and stretching again marveling at the very idea of the timing this had ... and then wanders over to the wall next to the bedroom door and just leans back against the wall waiting, his tail twitching slightly around his legs as he slips his thumbs into the belt loops of his pants. He knew he'd have to go shopping again, but not as much of a rush as the last time.

Changing into the sweat pants then the tank top she pulls her hair up into a ponytail before heading back towards the door. Slipping out of the room she had her hands resting on her neck. Arching a brow she frowns "Surion?"

"Haven't gone anywhere mela" he replies from where he's leaning against the the wall to one side of and slightly behind her. He's grinning, his eyes happy as he watches her. He couldn't help but wonder what her reaction may be, well no time like the present to find out.

Tinania turns only to freeze in her spot, her eyes look over Surion trying to figure out if she had fallen asleep or something. Looking up at him she was at a lost for words. He look very different to her, yet she knew it was him.

Surion pushes away from the wall and steps towards her "Something wrong mela?" he asks in a casual innocent voice, he was happy and he doubted anything could spoil that, he lifts a hand and runs his fingertips along her cheek

Tinania lips move, but no words formed as she just looked up at him. Closing her eyes she swallows alittle before opening them again slowly "You....grew...."

"That I did love, cant help but like the timing in it" he chuckles and pulls her close "Now where were we..." he pushes the longer hair out of his face and looks into her eyes

Tinania gasps as she is pulled close to Surion. Licking her bottom lip she looks up at him blushing alittle as before looking down. Yea she still was in shock, he was her age now, no longer a teen, but a young adult.

"You know... you're adorable when you blush" he smirks ever so slightly, he was trying to bring her out of shocked stupor, and then.. after a soft kiss he grows silent himself

Tinania blushes even more before looking up at him shaking her head "I am not..." poking him lightly she relaxes in his arms. Laying her head on his chest she smiles "You look very sexy."

"Thankyou mela... as do you. Now do you really want me to not turn off the phones?" he was teasing partially in this... but serious as well. "I really would like some special time with you, even moreso now"

Tinania turns her head kissing at his neck before lifting her head up to look into his eyes "Um...no it doesn't sound like a bad thing now." her wings flutter alittle before she leans up brushing her lips over his.

"Good" was the simple one word response he gives her before pulling her close and returning her kiss, holding it a little longer then a quick kiss. "I guess that makes two surprises for one day, should we go for three, or just stay with the norm" he smiles, he was quite content just being normal and not any different then normal

Tinania runs her fingers lightly through his hair before chuckling alittle "I will leave that up to you how does that sound?" stepping away from him she place her hands behind her back giving him the most innocent smile.

Surion laughs "Oh Nani I love you so much." he steps away, after a moment he locates all the phones and turns them off and then turns to her and holds a hand out to her "Alone time, you and me time... Planning our future time... among other things I'm sure"

Tinania chuckles not taking his hand, she does the opposite and takes another step back away from him. Tilting her head she shakes her head "Hmm but its far too much fun just looking at you and not doing anything." she was lying, she wanted him. But she wasn't going to give in that easily.

Surion gives her a pout and tips his head slightly causing his even longer bangs to fall back into his face, "now you are teasing me" he loosely crosses his arms and his tail moves slowly around his legs "wellll two can play at that game" he leans back against the nearest heavy furniture and watches her back

Tinania smirks lifting her arms above her head, she knew with the shirt she had on it would lift up to reveal skin. Closing her eyes she smiles before letting her hands drop to her sides. Opening her eyes she tilts her head watching him. She wanted to step towards him, but that would be giving in. And well she just didn't want to do that.

"Tease" Surion says with a laugh and pushes his long hair over his shoulders "Well what to do about that..." he smirks slightly and shed his shirt before wandering her direction, when alone with her he made no effort to hide his scars, he had nothing to hide with her

Chuckling she takes a few steps back as he walk toward her "Am not, I was simply stretching that all." bumping against the wall she looks to both side trying to figure out which way would be the better way. If she could get to the bedroom she would be safe. Darting her eyes towards the bedroom, she turning making a run for it. She would make him really want her.

"Hey now" he says with a laugh and chases after her "come back here" his eyes twinkled playfully as he chases after her "You know I will get you"

Tinania laughs reaching the door. Slipping inside she looks both ways debating where to hide. Looking over her shoulder for a moment she wrinkles her nose up forgetting she needed to close the door.

Surion laughs and slips through the door after her, and without a word goes invisible and stands directly behind her as she debates, oh what fun he could cause...

Arching a brow she bites her bottom lip taking a step back, she knew he was in here. Fluttering her wings slowly she smiles a they make a rather high pitch humming noise.

Surion winces and comes visible "Now that hurt" he says still wincing, his hands on his ears. He watches Nani and sighs slightly

Tinania smirks letting her wings slow before placing her hands on her hips. Her aqua emerald eyes flash for a moment before she chuckles "Do you really think I was going to allow you to sneak up on me Surion?" she knew he would be okay, after all she hadn't done it for long.

"I've done it before" he pouts playfully as he lets his hands drop to his hips. His tail lazes around his legs , he doesn't quite catch the shifting color of her eyes at this point however as he was trying to get his ears to stop ringing

Pushing her hand through her hand she walks towards him running her fingers up his chest "You'll be okay, it will stop in a moment." her eyes flash again before she turns walking away from him. She was slightly different as far as her teasing since her and the imp became one. It was why her eyes were different also.

"You know what all this teasing does though right Mela..." He crosses his arms over his chest tipping his head to one side letting his hair fall across his face. He stays in one place and doesn't follow her regardless of how much he really wanted to

Tinania looks over her shoulder arching a brow for a moment. Giving him a small nod she just stood there curious as to why he would ask her that. Turning alittle she regards him for a moment.

"Good, I'm glad you do" and his face spreads into a grin as he slowly begins to creep after her loosing his arms and putting his hands in front of him, fingers wiggling

Tinania laughs shaking her head as she walk backwards "Your seriously going to have to do better then that Dragon boy." turning she attempts to make it out of the room yet again.

Sur growls and pounces aiming to wrap his arms around her waist as she tries to pass him by... Dragon Boy... ooo he was no boy anymore....

Gasping as she felt the arms wrap around her waist she laughs pushing at them as she tries to get away. Shaking her head she laughs " let me go!!!" smacking at his arms she keeps trying to get free.

"Nope... your mine now" he growls playfully and pulls her closer burying his face in her neck and nipping playfully at the skin he finds "mine mine mine"

Closing her eyes Tinania kept pushing at his arms. Her attempt to get away becoming less and less before she finally she just rested her hands on his arms. Tilting her head to the side she falls quiet.

Surion makes a mix of sounds, between a purr and a growl as her fighting eased off. "Love you Nani" he whispers in her ear before moving from nipping at her neck to her earlobe "I really do..."he pulls her close lightly tickling her skin with his fingers

Squealing she twist in his arms now trying to get away again. Opening her eyes she smirks before popping out of his arms. Appearing at the door she pants alittle looking at him "Evil." leaning against the wall she breathes in slowly she laughing alittle.

"Hey you be evil I'll be evil" he says with a grin, he was now looking for the opportune moment to chase her and catch her again. She was fun to tease, and fun to receive teasing from

Tinania smirks then shrugs tilting her head "I'm not evil." turning away from him she shakes her butt at him alittle before walking out of the room. Pushing her hand through her hair she made no attempt in trying to run. She knew if she wanted to get away she could.

"Are too" Surion replies and watches her wander out of the room before flopping down on the bed and staring up at the ceiling. It'd been an interesting day thusfar, her teasing was driving him a lil batty though... only in the way it made him want her more though.

Plopping down on the couch she lays on her stomach humming softly to her self. Her hair hid her face mostly as she kick her feet alittle in the air. Her wings move slowly as she relax on the couch. She wasn't paying attention anymore.

"You know... you never really did answer me what you think a clutch... a child would look like with us as parents" he sits up and looks out of the room's door in her direction. He was a touch frustrated, but he would get his fun, his teasing in... and he knew it

Tinania opens her eyes alittle pushing her hair out of her face. She didn't answer him because she had never really thought about it, with the curse she never knew if she could have kids. She didn't want to get her hopes up so she she push that from her mind. Closing her eyes against she shook her head not making a sound.

Surion climbs off the bed and walks back out of the room and leans on the back of the couch looking down at her "You ok Mela?" he is a lil concerned at her quietness

Tinania nods as she look up at him "I'm alright. Was just thinking for a moment." turning so she was laying on her back she lays her arms above her head just watching him. She wasn't sure if she could answer his question, because she didn't really know herself.

"You know no matter that... they will be special... because they have a special mother like you" he reaches a hand down and brushes his fingers along her cheek softly "And I mean that"

Tinania closes her eyes nodding before she lifts her hand to place over his. Opening her eyes she sticks her tongue at him before turning to n** at his fingers.

Surion laughs at the face she makes and smiles widely dancing his fingers a little when she nipped at him, "Now who says I will let you do that so easily" he teases her and taps the tip of her nose with one finger

Tinania smirks turning to lay on her stomach again "I didn't expect you to. Its like me teasing you, how much more can you take Dragon boy?" chuckling she pushes her hair from her face before falling quiet again. She could feel his growing hunger for her, she saw it very well in his eyes.

"Oh I think you know my limits by now... or at least I hope you do" he chuckles and rounds the couch sitting down on the floor directly beside it and leans his elbows on the cushion his playful eyes looking her over "Now then.... that to do with this scene..."

Tinania opens one eye chuckling "Yes I do know your limits, that why 'm having fun pushing you." shrugging she tilts her head slightly arching a brow. She was curious as to what he meant.

Surion chuckles and moves one hand walking it up her bellow very softly, "Yes Mela that's obvious... I have to refind yours now since you two became one... before... it was easy" he moves a lil closer to her chin with his fingers as he talks

Tinania giggles shaking her head as her hair falls into her face "What makes you think we became one?" she knew he had figured it out, but then she rather enjoy this so she was going to go along with it. After all she did like having him riled up.

"Because it's kinda obvious" he says with a laugh and just watches her "now then.... the couch is boring, lets do something, either together here or ... well here would be preferable" he shifts in his seat

Tinania giggles before she lets her hand drop running it lightly over the top of his pants before giving a light squeeze "Oh why something the matter?" laughing she sits up lifting her arms above her head. If she knew him well enough like she did, she figure she might have just broke him.

Surion pouts at her tease and whimpers "Oh I think you know the answer tot hat question" he reaches his hands forward slipping them under the hem of her shirt as she stretches and rests them on her soft skin that was visible and attempts to pull her closer

Tinania watches him before she allows herself to be pulled closer to him. Wrapping her arms around his neck she rest her forehead against his as she chuckles moving slightly in his lap "Don't like the new teasing me all that well do you?"

"Hard to get used to" he admits and holds her loosely close to him kissing her lovingly "but I'm not going to complain, you are still my Nani... and I love you" and his words end there as he kisses her again a little more deeply then before

Purring against his lips she returns the kiss as she runs her fingers through his hair. Pulling back for a moment she blushes which was a first since they had arrived here. Tracing her finger lightly over his lip she chuckles "I'll stop teasing you if you want me too.."

"I want special time with you, no matter what that entails" he purrs as her fingers move through his hair. He watches her a moment and then opens his lips closing them once again around her finger with a soft smile

Tinania smiles closing her eyes alittle "Mmmm I miss this.." just being with him, being herself. She miss this far to much. Opening her eyes they flash for a moment before she pulls her finger away from his lips "I think that we should be getting back home. I have work that needs to get done." she wanted him to stop her. Pulling slightly away she goes to stand.

"Does it really need to be done... right now? it's barely mid afternoon, if that" in all honesty he had lost track of time, but it couldn't be that late. He holds her hands looking up at her the moment had ended far too soon in his eyes

Tinania looks over at him watching him for a moment before she turns slipping back into his lap. Drawing a finger lightly over his cheek she kisses his lips quickly "Surion if you want something you need to let yourself have it." with a wink she turns away from him sanding up this time. Brushing her pants off she just stood there arching her back slightly.

"If you insist" he says with a laugh and then moving quickly he pounces her pulling her up into his arms "I want something all right... you" and he starts to back out of the room towards the apartment's bedroom taking her 'hostage' with him

Tinania gasps pushing at his chest trying to get free, looking up at his face she smiles shaking her head "Do you really believe I will allow you to get me in that bedroom." she hope he knew she was jesting with him. She wanted him, she just wanted him to be himself more.

"Oh probably not... But that dont matter... I will get you there though" he laughs pulling her more into the room and buries his face into her neck nipping at it as he moves closer to the bed in the room

Gasping her eyes fall close as her hand dug into his chest. Shaking her head alittle the thought of trying to et free was gone now. She was no longer trying to get free, instead she was trying to pull herself closer to his body.

Surion growls and nips a little harder, all else no longer thought of as he turns to set her on the bed. He didn't want to let her go... but still... she was wearing far too much for the urges he felt .........
