╔═════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗
Celeste was trying to get a look at the ruins in the dark, not having a flashlight like Robert, and not going to use her cellphone like a flashlight, even if she had an app for that, it was a bit difficult. In the day time this would have been super cool, Celeste loved seeing old stuff, especially ruins. To see what had survived the times, and what people thought they were, was always interesting. But at night... they were just a little creepy.
She took a few steps closer to Robert, just barely resisting the urge to grab onto his arm for comfort. Which was probably a good thing for him because in the next second he was pointing out yet another shrine. She narrowed her eyes accusingly at him, starting to get angry all over again when his words filtered through. She opened her her mouth and sucked ina good helping of air to give him a good setdown, but instead just released her air in a big breath, causing her bangs to ripple. Then she chuckled softly, shaking her head. She was too tired to be angry right now, and his "don't kill me" had been unexpectedly cute. She was really creeped out now, but had already freaked out enough in front of Robert, so she settled back into her comfortable happiness, even if it was a little, okay a lot, forced.... maybe he wouldn't notice? "While you have a horrible uncanny ability to find these things... I'm not going to kill you." The small amount of humor had left her and she just sounded tired. So maybe her faking it needed a bit of work.
She gestured toward the shrine, jokingly. "Anyone we know?" Figuring he would read this one too, or try to.

Celeste stayed where she was and watched the dakrening shadow of Robert as he moved to the shrine, his light bouncing jauntily before him. She much prefered the cool bite of the wind to checking out that freaking shrine. She wrapped her arms around herself.
Hearing Robert's voice drift back to her with the name she frowned. Then shook her head. "The name sounds familiar, but not enough. Luckily, I don;t know this one. That would just be creepy." Shivering, she turned pleading eyes to Robert, though he probably wouldn't see them in the darkness. "Can we make another try for the town now?"

Already? They were spending less and less time in front of those shrines. Perhaps Celest had a time limit on how long she could stay in human form? It was possible. It must have required energy to keep a form like that. Without wasting a moment, we left the ruin and headed toward the town. It was close enough and we would be there soon. They were only a ten minute walk away from the road that would lead them inside the town... that is, if they didn't take the wrong one, which would lead them all around town, and right into the beach, next to the watercave... Which, as anyone could expect, would be where they would end. However, before all that, they had to walk through the open field that was between the forest and the town, not far from the churhc.
//exit to the fields.//

~Spring 1st Year 5~ 
How Aleksey had stumbled upon the ruins was barely known to him. One minute he had been walking through his newly planted farm lands, when he spotted a beautiful butterfly. Being the simple minded man that he is, Aleksey left his farm to follow after the ceature, only to be distracted by a squirrel.. and then a deer... and so on until he had walked himself into sight of the ruins. Spotting it Aleksey smiled gently and headed towards the ruined castle.
It was beautiful.. in fact this whole island was beautiful. And so warm.. so warm~ Even though he was still wearing his long coat and scarf, Aleksey didnt mind the heat at all. It was such a wonderful change from Russia's harsh cold weather. It didnt matter what season it was in Russia.. snow was all year round.
To see anything but white made Aleksey incredibly happy, beyond words even. The different greens, the colors of the flowers, not to mention the beautiful sunflowers he had picked and held in his gloved hands. They were just too pretty not to take along. Aleksey smiled down at the flowers he had been carrying. He stopped momentarily to take a good looooong look at the ruins from the outside.
An hour or so passed before Aleksey even blinked. Venturing inside his strange eyes caught sight of the shrine to the Ice Fairy. Of course he didnt know exactly whom the shrine was too.. rather to him it was just a simple shrine. Walking up to it he held up a hand that had a sunflower in it.
"Oh. Pryvet... " Aleksey said to the shrine. He bent over and placed the sunflower at the base of the shrine. "You can be having that, da?" He said cheerfully before he righted himself. Aleksey then continued to stare at the shrine cheerfully, as he breathed in the Spring air. He raised his hand again and smiled once more. "Pa-ka." He said bidding the shrine farewell. Turning slowly Aleksey started heading in a different direction. Because at this point he had forgotten how to get back to his farm... He was such an odd Russian.
-exit Aleksey-

_____________Another day alone, with nothing to do but explore and dance around. What was a saddened and lonely girl to do about this? She is afraid to go into public areas because many know of what happened in her home. Or really she is especially afraid of the man with long dark hair who goes nuts whenever he remembers her. Heading into a clearing from the thickest wood, there stood a building structure. It's massive size made her think of an old castle or fort that was once grand and mighty. The closer she came, she could see the many cracks and nooks in the old building. Vines and plant life grew all around it, giving the mysterious and majestic past time feel to it. Finally, she was able to enter the large structure to the heart of the place. The ruins made her feel calm and safe inside, as if nothing could touch her in there. It was magical to be standing in such an old landmark. At least it looks very old. She walked up a few steps, almost trotting and making a dance to her steps, into the sunlight creeping from the crumbled rooftops. Or the ones that hung on the edges of the walls. The rest was open to the sky. She wondered how the place was not a popular landmark. Aniela thought that it would be a very attracting one for people around the world.

  Vladimir was out walking Snowflake, or rather how he liked to call the animal. Sno. The beautiful white wolf was taking the scenic route around their usual walk. Vlad was secretly looking for more of those Fairy shrines. He had spotted one up here, though it didnt.. feel like it was his fairy that this particular shrine represented. The same went with the Beach Cave Integra and Una had told him about. It didnt seem like his fairy would reside there. Why was he still obessed with this? God knows why, or rather Goddess. But at least he was back to his good ol self for the most part. Vladimir let Sno off the leash when she let out a growl at the smell of someone new. The white wolf darted of, with Vladimir trailing behind. Sno quickly found a white haired woman and started sniffing her. Panting lightly the wolf sat infront of her and stared at her, as if demanding to be pet. "Puppy dog eyes.. it's always hard to resist when their blue." Vlad said in his sensual tone of voice. The change was clear in his eyes and his voice. He was back to his good ol self, no more freak outs around people. He did recognize the woman and as he approached her he held up a hand. " Relax, im not going to yell at you, or freak out in some way. Im over that." Vlad said gently. A smile graced his lips. " Sorry sweetheart. I didnt mean to act that way earlier in the store. Its not your fault for what happened. And i shouldnt have freaked over it." Vladimir said gently before he held out his hand. "Names Vladimir Tepes, Miss Vanni." Vlad said to her, his inviting hazel gaze watching her blue orbs with a wolfish look to them. Oh... she was pretty, now that he wasnt freaking out. That stark white hair? Those blue eyes, that pale skin?

_____________Aniela jumped when she felt something sniff at her back leg. She spun around to see a huge white wolf staring at her and seated. She remained frozen until the voice of a man caused her to look away. It was the guy the continuously yelled at her for ruining his state of mind. . She was already alarmed and ready for another round of man-yell and running away crying like a wimpy little girl. Though his tone was different that how he was before. He knows who she is now, so she was a little confused. He had put his hands up and asked that she relaxed because he said he wouldn't repeat last time. . This didn't make her feel any more comfortable though. Even his apology didn't do anything to help her. When he held out his hand to her, she stared at it for a moment until he introduced himself to her. Only after did she place her small delicate hand into his.
"Aniela. ."
She wasn't sure if she was supposed to start a conversation with him and try to move on from the past or. . what. The others may have gotten over things, but she was the one who slept in that cursed mansion alone for years. The walls always reminded her of the terrors.
"You have no reason to apologize. . I appreciate it, but it's my fault. They came here for me. . then I don't know what happened until it was already done."
She stopped and looked down at her hand still in his grasp. Aniela quickly pulled away and chuckled softly from embarrassment, a slight shade of pink rising on her cheeks.

"They came here for you?" Vlad said a bit shocked, though it would explain a bit. Them being here, unable to take their ...actions out on Aniela here. So they turned to others, their main target Bela. Vlad frowned at that thought. So they really where just corrupt scum that needed to be taken care of. A light sneer formed on his lips for a moment before Vlad shook his head and dismissed the thought. "Next time something like that happens? Or if they show up again Aniela. You should head to the Police. As crazy as Romane is, her and Rachel will get the job done. But, its not your fault just because they made you a target." Vladimir said gently to her. His eyes went dark for a moment as a thought crossed his mind. He shook it again and smiled to the girl. "What are you doing all the way out here, if you dont mind me asking?" He asked her gently.

_____________She nodded her head to confirm him that the two goons were after her. Sadly one was never caught. He just up and disappeared. She was going to tell him that she had gone to an investigator before it all began but she didn't want to throw anyone under the bus. Plus, it would make her look like she was pointing the blame to someone else.
"I don't really go to the town much at all. . my house servants do for me. I just come to the wilderness to practice my dancing and explore."
As an example, she showed him her quad pirouette and landed her feet gracefully with one behind the other. Aniela smiled at Vladimir for feeling so accomplished that she was able to show someone her dancing. Well, there was that park ranger. .
"I'm a ballet dancer."

Servants? Dancing? Oh.. ballet.. oh look at that grace., and flexibility. Vlad bit his lower lip as he looked the girl over, a bit petite but very nice.. and the blue eyes. What would it take to get her in his bedroom? He noted her smile, so she liked showing off huh? Vlad smirked, " What else can you do, Miss ballerina?" Vlad said in a purr, oh he was intrigued. Vlad came up to her and gently brushed his fingertips along her jaw line. "Why dont we head to my house.. i feel like.. i owe you.. something for freaking out on you like that. And i would love.. " Vlad said as his fingers brushed against Aneila's neck. " ..what other.. dance moves you can do." Vlad purred.

_____________She straightened up when Vlad had asked what else she could do. Stupidly she thought the question as an innocent one. Her eyes glanced at the wolf still demanded to be pet and decided that it would be her distraction.
"I'm sorry, dance is all I know," she said as she bent over to pet the white wolf.
Vladimir blocked her from doing so by coming closer to her. She looked up at him startled when he brushed his fingers against her jawline. Aniela trembled at the touch, reminding her all too much of Damarko.
"W-what are you-," she began to whisper but was cut off with more words flowing from his lips.
He had invited her to his house to repay her for yelling and frightening her. Right now, he was frightening her the most. Feeling his hands on her neck she backed away from instinct and tripped on a rock. Stumbling, she caught herself on a crumbling pillar and rested her body on it.
"Vladimir, are you alright?"

The minute Aniela stumbled away from him and looked at Vlad with those frieghtened blue eyes, Vlad backed off immediately. It had him throwing his own look of fear and confusion her way. "I.." Vlad took a few steps back, retracting his hands to his sides. " ...was just trying to flirt. I didnt mean to..." Vlad stammered. Why did she have to look at him that way? Vlad swallowed hard, she was reminding him of the girls.. when they were being tortured. Panic entered Vlads eyes and his bottom lip quivered. "I.. didnt mean to scare you.." Vlad stammered as he kept backing up. Snowflake whined lightly and followed after her master.

_____________"Flirting with danger is not wise," she spoke softly.
Realizing there was nothing to be afraid of seeing that she had even scared him. . again. He promised not to yell at her or throw violent fits though. Aniela stood away from the pillar with cautious steps and looked up at the white wolf whining and following Vladamir.
"Quegli stronzi rovinato la mia vita e il mio modo," she started to mumble. "Io non sono così male," she accidentally shouted and then covered her mouth and coughed. "Excuse me. . I meant to say. .I'm sorry for worrying you. I'm trying to be normal again. I really am, but I'm afraid to go out there."

Vlad paused and turned back to the girl when she shouted at him in another language. One he couldnt place at the current moment. Russian? Italian? Maybe Spanish.. ? No.. with her last name being Vanni Italian almost made sense.. or latin? Pushing that thought away Vlad focused on the girl and what she said. He nodded to her and gave a soft smile. "Yeah.. its.. not exactly.. easy is it? Trying to be normal?" Vlad commented back. Scratching his head he dragged his long fingers through his ebony locks and sighed. "Look.. I should get going anyways, but.. if you want. Why dont we do lunch sometime? At the Inn.. no wait.. not there.. " Vlad frowned as he thought about Keith and Connor. He didnt need those two irritating him. "The cafe." Vlad said to her. " Here... call me when you want to, even if you just want someone to chit chat with. Trust me.. i know all about trying to be normal." Vlad smirked as he produced his business card and held it out for the woman. He stayed where he was, letting her come to him.
