*Shortstraw chukkled, "Oh okay good. I'll get coffee then..." he chukkled, "youdo relize coffee will make you short right. SO when you wake up and i'm taller then you remember why." He teased, "alright i'll be back in a bit then." He gave her a kiss, "see you later." He hugged her then headed out.
Meanwhile the women nodded, "hmmm... even so i cannot do a thing if it involves you. That was our deal." She looked to cresent, "it's not for him. It's for me." She shook her head, "what is it you seek?" Cresent nodded, "i'm trying to get ahold of someone by the name of Even, he was one of the hostages taken durring the yokai war a while back." She nodded, "and your needing to know what I know to find where they are taking that hostages." Cresent nodded, "i know you pay attention to that stuff, expechally since your in with them." The women shied and turned back to where she was standing, "Used to be. When my mtoehr passed away and i gained the tarritory i broke off from all my sponcers and stopped my... games. I have far enough to worry about now. Still, becuse he's here, i still cannot tell you where to go. Becuse that would mean I sent him there. And any misforction goes on me. And since i made the deal that non of her familiy was to be influenced by me, in exchange for somthing rather important at the time, i will not go back on that vow." Moon stepped forword, "your mother took chances or found loop holes for us. Please. This is rather important." Cresent nodded, "Your not influcing anything, we are. We need to know where to go." The women pondered, "fine." She help out a map that appeared in her hand, "use this, and be off with you."
Meanwhile Veria put the soul back in. "Hmm how odd." She looked to her sister in wonder. "i will need a blood sample next." She took her sisters arm and poured alittle of some green soultion on it, "this will num the needle." She stuck it in to her sisters arm cafully without her feeling any pain, before takeing the sample and looking at it. "hmmmm the next idea will be more about your body. Being it's the thing thats fading, it may hold a clue as too why."

Kiera scoffed to herself. "Hmph. Shorter. Right." She picked up another file with a shake of her head. "Not likely." Evelyn came back in, leaning on the wall. "Kiiro went off to Soflora with my encouragement. Seems she really doesn't mean to cut herself off." Kiera shrugged. "Children." Evelyn leaned over the desk to look at what she was reading. "How the hell can you deal with this every day? Doesn't it get tedious?" Kiera yawned and sipped her coffee. "It has to be done." Evelyn chuckled. "If your past self could see you now, then I think she'd probably faint."
Dante grinned. "We got the map!" He tried to be the peppy one at least. The other two seemed to be so glum he just couldn't stand it. Kiera told him once when he was very little that if you live in sadness long enough then you soon become comfortable with it. And he didn't want that at the moment. "Onto the next obstacle!" He smiled to Moon and Crescent.
Hana's blood was normal too. It remained a normal colour and there was not an imbalance of any kinds of chemicals or cells. When looked upon closer, however, some of the blood was transparent, and upon further observation of the cells, some seemed to fade in and out of view, while some others faded and disappeared completely.
"Miss Soflora?" Kiiro wavered into the living room in search of her. She worried for Soflora since she last checked up on the balance of her emotions. It seemed something was the matter, and so far Soflora was always there for her. She didn't want to ruin whatever small friendships she had in the household.

*Veria took her tools and abstracted the cells that faded in and out. That was the key, somthing inside these cells, had to be what was fighting off whatever it was keeping her visable. Obviously somthing connected to the yokai familiys blood. If she could find out what, perhaps with a blood transfussion, she may have a longer peiored of time at least. "It seems this is going to be difficult indeed." She looked to her little sister, "however if i can't figure it out, i will simply make you a new body as a last resort." She really really didn't want to do that though, she knew her copys were never as good as the orignal. In time one leg may grow larger then the other. Or one boob. And that scared her for her presious sister. She couldn't let things like that happen.
Meanwhile Solfora want in the living room, but rather in her bat form hanging upside down inside the fireplace. A vary dark spot where she would not be bother she thought. But hereing Kirros voice she opened her eyes, "are you in need of some help Kirro." she offered even though she was not in a good mood at all.
Meanwhile as the team turned, moon couldn't help but chukkle at donte, "at least someone has spirt. No wonder why we wanted to drag you along." She giggled. Meanwhile cresent looked to the map, "damn, it's quite a ways out there." She pointed stright ahead, "we enter through the forest of the Elcrys." Moon nodded, "oh boy. Donte whatever you do, do no harm any plants." She warned. Cresent nodded, "not only are they tree huggers, but do not harm any animals either. Infact we need ti try and be as quiet as possable, and shift."

Dante chuckled. "Those guys sound like they're fun at a party." He said sarcastically. "And well it's lucky I don't knock down trees for a hobby." He hopped ahead of them both happily. "Lets get a move on!" He shouted as he kept hopping along.
Hana looked down. "Yeah, gramps said it was difficult too. I don't think he knew it was to do with my blood, though." She curled her knees to her chest. "Do you know how long it will take to sort it?" She asked cautiously, looking to Veira with wide curious eyes. "I'm afraid that I might disappear completely.."
Kiiro kept her hand on the wall although frowned a little. "Are you all right miss Soflora? I .. read your emotions.. you seem to not be feeling good at the moment.." She brought her finger to her mouth. "What's the matter, if you don't mind me asking?"

*She blinked to kirro. Oh so now she cared. Before she didnt. She shied, "Donte left this morning and didn't really even say goodbye. He left a note saying that he'll be gone as long as it takes. He left me here, with no idea where he is, or when he will be back. And even more so, it turns out theres somthing screwy going around, i think this house is hunted by someone named nana." She wasn't happy at all, "He never even mentioned her to me. So he hid things from me, and he left without saying a goodbye." she repleated agian in anger.
Meanwhile Veria shook her head, "Trust me you will never fade out compleatly with me on the job." She looked back to the cells, "once our father died by fading away becuse mom messed with time. He saved the world by fading too. Later on he somehow was reborn though in a new body, so he proved somthing ot me." She smiled to her sister, "if i have too i can transfer your soul to a new body, and your memorys, two things that cannot fade as simply as a body can. And since i'm a deamon it helps." She giggled, "so it will be okay." She got up and walked over to nana and started checking things. "Do you have any weird other things that happen to you? Something that may be affected by this... time fading?'
Meanwhile Cresent looked to Moon as she quickly went after donte, but they finally came up to a new set of trees, a whole diffrent shade of green. The Elcys. It was there she cought up to donte, moon close behind, "Hey slow down you buffoon." She whispered, "you can get lost in here and never return." Moon nodded, "We are now in the Elcys, the land of elves. Tell me donte..." she looked to him, "do you know anything about elves?"

Dante looked to Moon suddenly. "Not really. I never get to see a variety of Yokai stuck at home all the time." He brought a finger to his lip as he kept moving along. "They're the pointy eared guys right?" He said proudly.
Hana shook her head and hugged her knees tighter to her chest. "No. Well not that I've noticed, anyway." She scratched her forehead as she thought. "Until I met with Dante a few days ago I hadn't talked to anyone in months. So it's hard to say, I guess." She shrugged. "I'm sorry."
Kiiro nodded slowly and went to sit down on the couch. "I can explain Hana at least. Onee-chan explained to me that there was a girl named Hana roaming about here now. I can feel her aura but at the same time it feels like she's not there. Onee-chan said that she's Dante's twin sister, and that only the bloodline can see her because of something that happened in her past. She's stuck in limbo." Her head lowered a little. "As for mister Dante, there's not much to be said. Sometimes boys have to go out on adventures to find out who they are or what they have to do. Onee-chan told me that's what mister Shortstraw did to miss Kiera lots of years ago." She nodded. "Miss Kiera didn't leave her room for months."

*Soflora looked to kirro, "a twin sister... limbo? whats a limbo? And even more so, why didn't he at least say goodbye, to tell me face to face. I would be alot better off he he told me face to face rather then a note." She fumed, "though i gues your right. I didn't know shortstraw went thoguht this, probably before my time here." She flew out of the fireplace and transformed into her humanic form with a hand on her hip, "i sure hope he's not going to be away for months. What will i do with myself." She sobbed.
Veria nodded. "Alright then." She pulsed and held up a bottle, "i want you to drink this. You will be alseep untill i'm done... it may take a while, but when i figure this out, you will wake up. This also makes anything i do painless." She explained, "I cannot work on you while awake... not you."
Moon nodded, "elves yes, point eared, magic folk. They belive in the olden times, before the time of humans, and nature at it's peek." Cresent nodded, "didn't find out they eat anything they find that wonders inside there land however. Elve are powerful, and can be vary vishus depending on wher eyour found or what you do. YOu piss on a bush and your an outsides, they scoop you up and cook you." Moon shied, "and out running them is impossable. They the quiest tree runners alive. If there int he trees, your not getting away." Cresent looked to donte, "also don't mention there ears if you meet one, that really pisses them off."

Dante chuckled. "Wow, remind me to invite them to the next party." He once again said sarcastically as he looked forward. "What makes them so uptight anyway? They just angry at people for mucking up the world? Or have they always been like this?" He asked curiously.
Hana nodded and took the bottle, looking carefully at the liquid. "I don't mind, sister. Just as long as I get fixed." She smiled to Veira then drank all of the bottle. "Just make sure I don't fade away." She yawned.
Kiiro smiled slightly. "Limbo is the place between earth and the afterlife. And I think mister Dante must have been scared you wouldn't let him leave if he told you face to face." She turned her head to Soflora with a smile. "And we can stay together, can't we? I can try and make you feel the slightest bit better at least. I know I'm not mister Dante, but I don't like seeing my friends upset."

*Soflora looked to her, "i appreashate that kirro, but why now? The past to days you were so depressed you didnt' want anything to do with us." She sat on the couch, "i dont mide some girl time. And you could be right about donte, but still i do feel a bit abandioned by him." She looked to kirro, "how about you is everything okay with you now?"
Veria slowly laid her sister down on the table, "I promes, You will not fade away." She whispered as nana would pass out. And right then thats when veria would bring over her tray of goodys, "time to get to work." She replied slipping on some gloves. ((Not going into more detail with veria for a while)
Meanwhile moon nodded, "they used to be fun loving people that cared for the land. But as time went on humans went aginst them and started choping down all the trees ad killing for no reasion, and then yokai came into the picture and things got really bad. They were basicly threatened to go to this place, or their race would never exsist again. So now they hate outsides no matter what there like, or who they are." She explained as cresent turned as a shrub moved. "We need to move faster." She replied taking lead.

Dante shrugged. "I guess that makes sense for their hostile.. ness. But still, they could be a little more friendly." He sighed. "I guess that's just me." He chuckled and kept hopping after Crescent. "How long will it take to pass through here?"
Kiiro smiled and nodded. "Yeah, I'm just fine. I'm really sorry I wasn't talking to you all for these past few days. It's unforgivable. I just wasn't feeling so good. Now I'm fine." She dipped her head. "I should have been around more, I apologize. Sometimes I have too many thoughts rattling around in my head." She smiled to Soflora. "And we'll see Dante about it when he gets back."

*Soflora shied, yep innocet like donte all right, she was falling for it, "yea i guess we will." She gave kirro a hug, "what would i do without you now." She giggled
Meanwhile Cresent started to go into a full out run, "as would have the team, "two days if were lucky!" She replied as Elves appeared upon the trees running along both sides with bows in there hands at the ready. Moon gulped, "We didn't do anything, but pass through..." she replied to them. Cresent came to a slide and stopped donte just in time for a trap that would have sprung, she then darted a diffrent direction, "Stay close, watch the ground!"

Dante thought about shifting to his wolf form but although it was faster, it was also much much larger, and he didn't want to make himself a larger and more sluggish target, so he decided against it in the end as he tried his best to stay close to Crescent and Moon.
Kiiro smiled more. "The grown ups are planning a festival in a few days, aren't they? That'll be fun, won't it?" Although Kiiro was far from convinced that Dante was going to be back before then. She was far from convinced that Dante was going to be back within the month. It wasn't just a hunch, but more from the way that Evelyn explained everything to her. Evelyn didn't care much for Dante, however there was something off. And given all the things that Evelyn had shown her and taught her over the past few days, she had a far few more things to be suspicious about.

*Soflora shrugged, "yea but... it's seems boaring. Besides shortstraw wnated me to run a stand in the name of the vampire people." She shied, "i'll basicly be working." She shrugged though, "i'm suppost to teach people about vampires truths, and also do a little play... but now that dontes gone, our plays not going to be compleat..." she frowned.
Meanwhile as they team twisted and turned the elves started to fire thre bows, and appear on foot, riding horses, and leading them into traps. The arrows were getting thick though, as the team slipped into a stone passing in a large rock and carried on running. It was them Moon slowed, "they're turn back..." cresent came to a stop. "Elves are in clans, this must be another tarritory." She crouched down and looked around. "It's already starting to get dark... the dew is starting to fall. We need to work on shelter." Moon nodded, "maybe we can use one of those big trunk trees, the ones with the large space under the roots." She looked to donte for his idea.

Dante blinked a few times. "Wolves use those a lot for dens. They're good and spacious, but sometimes a bit too open. Well it doesn't matter in this case, we're only staying there for one night." He looked to them both. "Will you two be all right for.. warmth? I mean I'm fine because my blood is always boiling."
Kiiro made a face. "Well that doesn't matter too much, does it? What was the play about? I would offer to replace Dante but-" She giggled. "I think I'd stumble everywhere and fall onto the audience." She smiled warmly to Soflora.

*Soflora giggled, "well it was a play we set up about donte being a hero and saving me, and stuff. It was more just fun playing around." She giggled again, "and yea I think it would be a bit rough for you." She patted kirros head, "guess i'll just have to do what i can." She nodded. "thanks though kirro."
Meanwhile Cresent and Moon nodded to eachother and they each went under a tree to sit down, you couldn't really stand in the one they chose, they hoped it would attact less attention. "No fire. Thats a big no no." Cresent replied. Moon hugged her knees, "we sould be fine as long as we dont get wet donte. Thats the only thing that really stops us." Cresent nodded, "i'll take first shift."
