A small boy seemed to fade into existance beside the symbol in which the wite haired man was trapped. The man was sleeping in the center of the symbol, speaking a language softly in his sleep. Suddenly the boy yelled. "Get up Soloman!" The man woke up with a start and stared at the boy for a second before speaking in the ancient language. He walked over to the boy while spaking and stood there. The boy reached out his hand towards the man and waited patiently. The man took the boys hand, unsure of what was going to happen. Suddenly a large amount of blueish energy burst from the boy and grabbed onto to Soloman's arm. The man pulled away as quickly as he could, but the power had already latched onto him. Slowly the energy began to cover Soloman's body. "Don't worry, It'll be over soon..." The boy said with a smile before disappearing in the same manner in which he appeared.
Soloman rolled on the ground screaming for some time. What was this energy doing to him? Why had Reeve betrayed him so? Finally the pain dulled and he stood, looking around. His breathing was hard and unstable, as if it had been spending hours doing a strenuous exercise. He cursed Reeve untill he looked upon the ground, seeing he was no longer in the symbol.

With purposeful strides, Ziven went wandering through the out of doors, searching for something. What it was, she was not sure but she was intent to find out. Finally she reached a point she was familiar with. Something was different though, something was missing? Tilting her head, she recognized the lone figure on the ground. Nearing him, but not too close, she spoke to them, not quite sure who they were from how they were on the ground. "Excuse me, are you alright?"

"Yes yes, I am fine..." Soloman said as he lifted himself off the ground. His legs felt odd... but that was probably because they were new to him. He breathed slowly for a moment, then started to pat the dirt off of himself. Now that he was out of the symbol, the magik which held it there wore off and the symbol faded away. "That stupid little brat had to use the most painfull technique to get me a body though." He grumbled, looking at the ground as he tried to take a step.

Slowly, as if she were thinking of a dream, she recognized Soloman once he stood. With a small smile, she bowed to him slightly, not taking her eyes from his. "Greetings, Soloman. I did not recognize you at first, my apologies. I assume you speak of Reeve? Do you require anything?" she asked kindly.

Soloman turned around, almost falling in the process. "How did you know my name?" He asked, eyeing her oddly. A quick thought passed through his head, a small idea began to form. He would wait until he had this answer though.

Seeing that he was nearly losing his balance, she reached toward his arms, not grabbing him but leaving just enough distance that he could use her arms as support if he wanted to. "Since we met before .. young Reeve said he was with Soloman and Viper. Since I know Viper is the dark man, you are the light man, therefore you are Soloman." she said calmly, all the while ready to support him if he needed.

"I see..." The man said, regaining balance all on his own. He looked at her for a moment, then smiled. "So what did you think about Viper? Pretty... interesting bloke, no?" His eyes studied her carefully, looking for any immediate reaction.

Now seeing that he had full control of himself, she stepped back again, resting her hands at her side. With his questions, a shy smile crossed her lips, and she found it difficult to look at him as she realized her cheeks were turning pink. Nervously she itched one of her ears which seemed to burn with embarassment as well as being irritated. "Yes, interesting. I only wish I would have had longer to speak with him. Since I have not seen him nor Reeve since then, I have not been able to ask but it seemed that I had upset them. I look forward to having the opportunity to apologize if I did." she said softly, finally raising her eyes to him again, hoping he would not also become irritated with her over this.

"Oh? You have a thing for Viper then?" Soloman smiled wider, watching her. She was obviously embarassed, but he wanted to get some answers. "Do you think you love him?" ((Sorry if it takes me awhile to post, my internet is acting up again. stressed ))

"I-I .. well I love Reeve as I knew him .. All three of you, Reeve, Viper and yourself are the parts of Reeve that made him who he is when I met him, yes? I have love for all of you if that is the truth. My love may be different for each of you but I assure you that I do. I know I do not express myself well on these matters." she said softly, looking very uncomfortable.

"Actually you can subtract the kid. By the time you met Reeve the boy was already locked away... but I suppose I get what your saying." Soloman walked around Ziven, gently placing his hands on her soulders. He did not really know why he did it, but now that it was done he had no problem with it. Gently he leaned down and whispered in her ear. "And what exactly are your feelings towards me?"

She felt herself blush with his touch and whisper in her ear.Though he did not realize it, her ears were much more sensitive than normal and this felt very ... odd to her. She could not find her voice for a moment. When she finally did, she spoke softly. "I .. hardly know you as an individual. You seem kind, gentile, logical. All characteristics I value in friendship.
Though I grow more curious as to why you are so interested in my feelings toward you all." she finished, sounding a bit more sure of herself but still confused.

Soloman pulled back and laughed slightly, releasing her. "That would be my business." He said simply as he turned and began to walk toawrds the bar. Much live Reeve, his footsteps made no sound whatsoever as they touched the ground, nor did the fabrics of his robes.

Very confused, Ziven followed after Soloman, wanting more answers.

Soloman looked behind him, hearing her follow. There was a look on her face that made him chuckle ever so slightly. "You know, I am unaware if you knew this before, but all you ever had to do was ask Reeve a question and he would have answered you truthfully. He got that from me, so all you need to do is ask if you have something on your mind." He turned his head from her and continued to walk, apparently Rayne had chosen quite a far off location.
