Emma had a lot to do now that she leveled up, she needed to get all of the training she could in, and when she was done here and gained an even newer and shinier level card...she'd be a very happy person. "I'm here to finish up that test from last time, let's get this done as quickly as possible." Emma stretched her arms up toward the sky, carrying around her greatsword and scythe was getting easier every day, and once more...she was ahead of Fenrir in levels, but she'd yet to outrank him, she planned to do so...very soon. The first instinct Emma had was to call out to Symphony...but she kept herself from doing so, if she was looking for somebody it'd have to be Arete. "So...let's get to work." She called out in her dull monotone voice.

Arete Muse 
Emma could call all she wanted but the fact remained that Arete had still locked himself inside his trailer. A loud tune played through its walls, the sound of a saxophone. The "children of sound" as The Muse called them were gone as well, away off playing the distant flower field no doubt.

± : . : ± : . : ± : . : ㊋ : . : ± : . : ± : . :㊋ : . : ± : . : ± : . : ± Emma covered one of her ears, what a strange sound she was hearing. Emma sighed and shook her head, walking over to Arete's trailer and placing her hand against the door. "So much for always being around." Emma shook her hand and knocked against the door several times in an attempt to get a reply. "Hey, Arete. You there?" Emma asked, she wanted to get through and get out...this was wasting her time. And she didn't have very much of that due to her needing to get a lot done. She was contemplating kicking the door down...but she'd wait for an answer first.

Arete Muse
The saxophone tune played louder as Emma tried knocking. From inside she can hear the faint words of Arete singing another song.
"Who can it be knocking at my door?"
"Go away.
Don't come 'round here no more." Arete continues and dive roles into his bed, quickly hiding himself under the covers.
"Can't you see that its late at night?
I'm very tired,
and I'm not feelin' right...
All I wish is to be alone.
Stay away, don't you invade my home.
Best off, if you hang outside.
Don't come in!
I'll only run and hide.
Who can it beeee now?" He sings the chorus and replays the tune on his saxophone.
"Who can it beeee now?
Who can it beee now?
Who can it beee now?"

Emma turned around and started beating the back of her head against the door before sliding down it and just sitting there. One more...she was sure she could break this door down, but she'd just wait for now. She closed her eyes and hugged one of her legs to her chest while her right leg was stretched outward, she'd wait out here all day if she had to. Well...she'd wait for a couple of minutes then fall asleep, but...whatever.

Arete Muse
Arete continued to play his song without much further distraction. The blinds to his window opened though so he could peek out at whoever was actually knocking.
"Who can it be knocking at my door?
Make no sound. Tip-toe across the floor.
If she hears, she'll knock all day.
I'll be trapped, and here I'll have to stay.
I've done no harm, I keep to myself.
There's nothing wrong with my...state of mental health."
He sings as he grabs a picture of a woman from his counter inside and slides back against his bed staring at it. Reflecting on his story with her, Arete's eyes start to water.
"I like it here with my childhood friend.
Here they come...
those feelings again.
Who can it be now?
Who can it be now?
Who can it be now?
Who can it be now?"

She stood up and unsheathed her greatsword before dropping it flat on the ground. She was going to use this as her bed until Arete was done...doing whatever he was doing, no point in trying to interrupt after all. She laid on the cold steel and crossed her arms behind the back of her head, she also crossed her legs at the ankles, looking at nothing but sky before she dozed off. Though...she'd really prefer her bed right now, she wasn't really worried about sleeping on the ground.

Arete Muse 
-timeskip-
The next morning Emma would likely be awoken by yet more singing and music, this time coming more clearly from above. She was under a blanket though, so someone must've tucked her in after she passed out. Now Arete and the children of sound rocked away on the roof of the trailer. Bass sat on a drum set, of course, with Tone on bass guitar and Treble on lead guitar. Arete stood on their center with mic stand and a guitar of his own. His foot tapped the roof as he sang to Tone's intro.
Father of Mine
Tell me where have you been?
You know I just closed my eyes
My whole world disappeared
Father of mine
Take me back to the day
Yeah, when I was still your golden boy
Back before you went away!
I remember blue skies,
walking the block
I loved it when you held me high
I loved to hear you talk
You would take me to the movie
You would take me to the beach
You would take me that place inside,
Thats so hard to reach
Treble came in with a mean guitar rift just as Volume, the white-haired with the claw arm, walked up next to Emma. Cheshire sat in the grass next to her and watched the performance going on above them. "It would seem you came here on a sad day. Its the anniversary." She said to Emma in a quiet, emotionless voice that only barely pierced the music blaring around them. "The anniversary of Arete's sorrow..." The song continued to play around them.
Oh!
Father of mine,
Tell me where did you go?
Yeah, you had the world inside your hand
But you did not seem to know...
Father of mine
Tell me what do you see?
When you look back at your wasted life
And you don't see me?
I was ten years old
Doin' all that I could
It wasn't easy for me to be a scared white boy in a black neighborhood
Sometimes you would send me a birthday card with a five dollar bill
Yeah I never understood you then,
And I guess I never will!

± : . : ± : . : ± : . : ㊋ : . : ± : . : ± : . :㊋ : . : ± : . : ± : . : ± The first thing Emma noticed was music, she still wanted to sleep, but guessed it'd be sort of impossible now. Due to her lack of being able to feel she didn't notice the blanket until she moved...who would've put this here for her? Before she had a chance to ponder it Volume joined Emma, from her experience with things like this she was going to just go ahead and say the girl would tell Emma what was going on with all of the music. Emma went ahead and stood up, folding up the blanket and holding it in one hand while with the other hand she picked up her greatsword. She spun it around in a half circle until it landed on her shoulder, she didn't cut herself because she moved very slowly with this thing only in one hand. Even so she was able to slide it in to her sheathe from here, now she had one hand free. "Anniversary...?" Emma had just woken up so she wasn't sure if she was forgetting something. "Ah..." Emma closed her eyes for a second, it was none of her business to ask why he was sad, like she'd done before she would just let him be. She opened those shadowy grey eyes again as she finished her quiet contemplation. "Should I return at a later date?"

Arete Muse
Volume shrugged as the band continued to play above them. "You could." She said without showing much concern. "But it could take some time. Once Arete gets himself in one of these depressions it can be difficult to pull him out. Music is the only thing that soothes him..."

Angel stopped running and looked around. She'd run pretty far into the forbidden jungle some how and had gotten turned around. Now she was lost and still had to find a teacher. But was anyone around to help her? She doubted it, but it's human nature to call for help even when none is present. "Hello? Can I have help with a level up test?" she asked.

Only silence answers the girl. Up ahead she can see that the jungle becomes too thick, and the path branches off into two separate areas. One area seems thick and dark, the canopy so large that it casts a dark shadow on all within. The calls and howls of animals echo from this direction. The other path is also dense, but sunlight breaks in enough to light the way. The trees seem more exotic on this route, with large trunks and branches with hanging vines. On this path not a single animal can be heard.
Which path do you take?

Angel looked down both paths and felt sweat trickle down her spine. Which should she take? She'd always heard that in a jungle or woods, animal and bug sounds, however scary, were a good sign. It meant life as the forest new it was going on and nothing particularly dangerous was prowling through. On the other hand a silent jungle of woods was very dangerous. Something that scared everything else was prowling through and all the other animals and bugs were being quiet and trying to hide.
That in mind she looked down the noisy, dark path and takes a deep breath. Then she started down it.

As Angel presses on into the eerie forrest the area gets darker and darker from how thick the canopy is. There are several slants downhill, and every now again a dark shape will dart out of her peripheral. Even if nothing has approached her, Angel can feel eyes on her. Things only get worse when a low mist starts to gather on the ground, worsening her sight so much that Angel can no longer see the way back. Suddenly she hears a low growl, like the meow of a cat screeching "Naaaoooooooooo." It purrs again, and she can see the outline of a cat sitting on a branch above her. "mrrrrong wrrraaaaaaaay."
