Taqune nodded and stood,"Pippa again I am sorry for doing what I did."Looking to Tatsu he sighed,"I'll keep that in mind Tatsu,you should rest."looking at the sky Taqune sighed again."Pippa don't worry about me we are still friends,and I promise not to touch your ears again."With that Taqune was gone an after Image of his was standing there looking at the sky and a strong wind rose and died as quick as it had came.Taqune had gone to another part of the courtyard or prehaps to his tree.What ever the case he wasn't around them anymore.

Pippa watched Tatsu and covered her ears as if he were yelling at Taqune. A whimper escaped her lips as he made his point to Taqune, after he laid his head back down she quickly closed her eyes and made a pillow with her mind and took off running in any direction she wasn't sure where she was going. Her and those aweful ears caused more trouble then she could handle. Pippa knew that Taqune was only trying to help and there would have been no way for her to calm down that quick if he hadn't of, which almost ment certain death. Finally once out of everyones sight she found a dark corner and sat in it.
Sitting alone made her scared so she covered her ears and shut her deep blue eyes as she rocked back and forth. Her body shuttered as the words from Tatsu kept ringing through her head as he pretty much shouted them with out shouting. After some time Pippa opened her eyes and realized she was in a shadow which scared her even more so she shut her eyes as tight as possible and hummed softly praying that nothing came out to get her. Her panic stricken body only rocked while she sat there wanting to be alone but not wanting to at the same time. She figured she would be better off leaving so that she caused no more trouble then she already had but she couldn't bring up the courage to move from that spot.

Tatsu sighed and snapped his fingers, the pillow Pippa had created vanishing. He fell back on the ground, staring up at the sky. His hand twitched again. Such power... He shut his eyes, thinking of Pippa. She hates me because how violent I can be... Tatsu tried to sit up, but failed. Even with his injuries healed, the Twilight had drained him of his strength. Mute... Unable to move... Exausted... I haven't felt this powerless in a long time...
Vain's mind scattered throughout the air, regathering infront of Pippa, followed by the rematerialization of the rest of his body. As he reappeared, the plate of his right cheek was gone, showing a blurry, glowing mark. The plate quickly came with the rest of Vain, followed by a depressing laugh. "How unfortunate for you, that you should have to go through all of this." Vain knealed down next time her, his eyes still as filled with sorrow as ever. "It is nothing but sadness in your past, and nothing but doubt in your future. It is sad that you have attached yourself to a being that must not exist in our world, though. If I had any tears left, I might give you one, but they have gone a long time ago."
Cords crawled out from up Vain's jacket sleeve, attaching themselves to his hand as he placed a finger on her forehead. "Yes, a slave girl, eh? It seems that you've gone through almost as much as I have. Well, not really, but either way, I'm surprised you're not in an asylum." Vain retracted his hand, the cords retreating up his sleeve as he said, "Why do you fear me? Why do you fear Tatsu? Is it because you have yet to understand what our kind is? Those who have gone through such hardships that our minds have bent and twisted into something else? Is that it?..."

Her eyes filled with more fear as he materialized but when she saw she couldn't move at all. Not even to blink she sat totally still, they reminded her of things from her past and that was something she didn't want to see. As he placed a finger on her forehead she let out a scream."I'm not scared of Tatsu....You on th-t- the other h-h-hand you're only out to hurt....." The words hardly managed to escape her lips as she spoke to him. She had still yet to blink and her ears were flicking furiously as he touched her then removed his touch from her.

Taqune hadn't gone far.He was at the tip top of his tree a place where only those that can fly or climb like him reach.He was looking around the area his eyes calm his posture that of his animal side.Looking out he saw Vain put couldn't see Pippa behind him until he heard her scream.He didn't move knowing what Tatsu would do and he didn't want to bring more pain to Pippa he stayed where he was against his own thoughts.

Lily smiled. "I think that would be good...." she scooted a little closer, leaning in for a kiss when she swiped her hand across some glass. "Ouch." she looked at her bleeding hand and laughed. "Well there's one way to ruin a good moment....."

Abaddon woke with a start, he was still on the bench by the fountin, feeling rested and relaxed, he slowly eased himself up. Coma had apparently been up for a while, ploting on how to take control of the body.
The neko was long gone, which upset him slightly, he liked her sent... WAIT!! What was he THINKING?!? Liked her "scent"? He was beggining to sound like Coma more and more as the days went by, and coma was starting to sound like him, less of a beast and more of an intellegent being. This was starting to weird him out.
Abaddon got up and lookd around, checking himself as he did, nothign stolen, nothing broken, a small bitemark in his coat, probibly from the desprate neko trying to escape, ah well, nothing that couldn't be handled by some quick stiching.
His stomach growled, he was hungry. Thinking about this, he realized that he hadn't consiously eaten in the past few months, it had all been coma hunting for live prey and consumeing it, he geussed that haveing a deamon did have some perks like being able to eat like one if nessisary.
Looking around he noticed somting rather odd, one person materializing and de-materializeing arund another person, and a third person watching from a tree... he dicided to ask the one in the tree for directions, becasue if nothing else, he was probibly the least busy of the trio.
Walking over to the tree he shouted up at the person.
"Hey, which way to the cafateria from here?"

"Yeah I guess that would be," he chuckled and stood up helping her up and thenheading towards the fountain.
"Let's wash the cut in the fountain."

Taqune looked down at the person his eyes were slitted and almost evil.He looked back up at Vain a low growl excaping his mouth.The sound would resonate across the whole courtyard like a small earthquake.His tail pointed to the cafe for the guy on the ground.

Fera didn't like the sistuation she was in at all and she needed to get out. She quickly got up and pushed down the angle creature in front of her. Grabbing her bag quickly she started to run away from him. This man could have easaly had his way with her. She quickly looked back but just as she was about to turn around she hit someone. ((Inaluke))

Lily nodded and walked along side Darius, she would have held hands, but well, she doubted he would want to hold her bleeding hand. She walked to the fountain and knelt down by it and wished her hand gently through the water.

Vain grinned at Pippa. "Out to hurt people? My goodness, no. I've had enough of people getting hurt without reason...." His expression changed to that of a cold-blooded kill as he finished his sentence. "And this Tatsu person is a being that has too much power. His elemental focus is unknown and his true power cannot be measured. He is a threat to everyone as long as he exists." The grin came back as he placed his hand on her cheek. "You've such smooth skin. No doubt obtained out of force by your masters, am I correct? You weren't just some kind of housemaid, were you? You were someone's toy."
He removed his hand from her face and put his hands in his pockets. "Not like I even care. You see, when someone watches his own 7-year-old sister get raped and killed before his very eyes, he loses interest in the whole thing." The plate on Vain's face shifted back, revealing a glowing mark. He moved his hand to her face again, pulling her closer to see the mark. "And don't think you're the only person who is branded by their past. This is the brand of the Raven God of Death. Those who wield it have absolute power and become emmisaries of the dark god. Those who see it have gone as far as to crap their pants, but it seems like you aren't the kind of person who would do that." Vain let go of Pippa, standing up as the plate moved back over the mark again. "I'm going to tell you one more thing before I go: Tatsu is not an innocent soul. To say the least, he's caused more deaths than even I. He's a ticking timebomb waiting to blow. Oh, and that girl Tatsu could never save from being sold into slavery? the one that he has nightmares about? Her name is Pippa. And you once had a friend named Tatsu. Do the math."
With that, Vain vanished from sight.
Tatsu struggled in getting up, hardly able to maintain his balance once on his feet. That scream, it was Pippa! Tatsu staggered around the courtyard, falling over a bunch as he looked for Pippa. He finally found her, all alone. He staggered towards her, falling over infront of her. He looked up and thought, Are you ok?!

Darius sat there as Lily washed her hands still thinking. He knew he still needed to savor the moment, but how? He then knew what he should do. Without any warning he put his arms around Lily and kissed her making them lean dangerlously over the water of the fountain.

Abaddon was just tornung to leave when he was tackled from behind, and not haveing Coma to forwarn him, was caught not only in midstep but was also caught off gaurd and thusly sent flying.
Hitting the ground hard, he rolled over and drew his revolvers and prepared to open fire, but luckly enough for the intended target, Coma recognized her as the rather spunky girl that he had made Abaddon kiss that one time and locked his trigger fingers.
"Hello young one, remember me?"

Lily was caught off guard by Darius's kiss. She smiled to herself, glad that he had saved the moment she had thought she'd ruined. She kissed back, only barely keeping be balance as she leaned over the fountain, feeling the tips of her hair getting wet.
