"Damn it was just getting into the third strings, and i was about to propose. Well, guess i will need to do it in person now, but right now warmed up or cold, I'm starving." Tolly sat up again and waded back into the plate pausing between bites; "Thanks Kaos, and you may want to stop by Roo's before you go to mary's."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Jezabelle got up and patted her shoulder; "Well you might want to be close to the action then if you wish to protect me." Jezabelle opened the door to the pantry, and nothing seemed out of the ordinary. "Hmmm, the servants quaters maybe?" Jezabelle walked into the room she used to use, and where her bed used to be was a hole going down with stairs. the false stone floor moved off to the side

Tolly never finished the meal as he got up. "I can't rest yet, there is somewhere I need to be..." Tolly walked into the closet and, and he came out in a semi formal robe. Tolly ran a comb through his hair and taking a strip of cloth to polish the horns on his head before he moved to a table. He reached for it by instinct and caught himself at the last moment, he skipped over the wedding band and picked up the small sack that held his money. Turning from there he walked to the door and looked back at Kaos. "I'll walk you out, but the reason I tell you to stop at Roo's is that about this time every night Yuma stops there for a drink." Tolly opened the door and held it for Kaos.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sorrow rolled over and looked at the paper, and getting up she took the quill and wrote out on the page. "Meet me at Roo's on your way back home, do not rush, and I don't plan on drinking. I'll take the parchment with me in the rare event something happens that I need you sooner."
Yuma wiped the tip of the quill and throwing on a bath robe since she didn't feel like getting dressed for what could be the shortest time spent in a bar. She capped the ink well and placed it with the quill in the front pocket, and carrying the parchment she left the room heading for Roo's. She took her time, taking breaks she normally wouldn't take, but she figured a change was coming so no better time then now to get accustomed to it.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Jezabelle didn't like the dark stairs, but Akira helped change that by holding her hand palm up and the small fire ball danced just above her palm. "Its the best I can do until papa teaches me more." They kept going down the spiral of the stairs.
At the bottom Akira extinguished the flame on her palm and in the dim light of the candle beside Toole. His form was slumped over, and Jezabelle took a moment to let her eyes readjust to the level of light int he room. "I never seen this room, in all the time I lived here I never once been in this room, or even know it existed at all."

Kaos looked confused and brought his dishes up stairs and placed the leftovers in a bowl, and placed it back in the icebox, "What are you in such a hurry for Toleranth?"
Kaos slid the dish into the sink and was about to wash them, when flames blew up in his face, making him stumble backward, "What the...?" The flames swirled and danced into a message that read:
"Meet me at Roo's on your way back home, do not rush, and i don't plan on drinking. I'll take the parchment with me in the rare event something happens that I need you sooner."
"Why is it always flames with Chrono?" he sighed as he read the message, "Well, Looks like I've been summoned..." he closed his eyes and sighed, "Ah, Stop at the Inn before you go... She'll want a piece of that b***h." Kaos smiled softly and followed Toleranth out the door, "And if I'm not mistaken... Onora and Ailes are already on there way up there... Good. You're going to need all the help you can get..."

"I knew something was up by that whole deal, but I let it happen since I wasn't in the position to bargain." Tolly paused after he pulled his key from the from the door. "All the help I can get eh." Tolly waved at kaos before troding off to the gateway at what looked to be just under a running pace.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Akira turned the lights back on and Jezabelle sighed as she had to let her eyes readjust. Akira however walked intot he room and was looking around at various tools, and opened some of the hardening ovens. Jezabelle approached Toole cautiously, and she about nudged him to wake him up when she noticed the dagger he had been working on.
She picked it up, and was admiring the patterns on the blade and hilt. She set it back down; "Ready Ian, I don't know what will happen, but..." Jezabelle reached out and was about to nudge Toole shoulder when a terrible crash of metal and a short scream from Akira in the far corner of the room Sent toole out of the chair and wide awake.
Akira was on her butt, and she rubbing her head as a pile of metal rods lay all fallen and scattered about her feet. Toole went to move, but stopped with a lurch before crashing into Jezabelle who was standing in the way. "What in the blazes are you all doing down here?" Toole moved around Jezabelle and moved over to where Akira sat and he looked her over before sighing. "Well your relatively fine, you'll have fine bump on your head until you pull your amulet off, but what were you doing anyways."
Akira answered holding up the shiny piece of metal bar. "I wanted to look at this, when i pulled it out the big bar there moved, the rope broke, and the pile began to fall on me."
Toole pointed to the stairs; "Alright everyone back up the stairs, because this is not the place for a discussion." "Well it will have to do for one, lets go Toole, we have business in Rodasia, and the longer we wait the greater the gap between you and Ailes." Toole stared at his father come out of the stairway. Toole looked confused; "Gap, Ailes is upstairs in my room, she asked for some time alone....oh god tell me you didn't disturb her?" Tolly shrugged; "I disturbed and empty room, apparently Onora came and hijacked your intended bride for something in Rodasia." Tolly held out the note, and Toole came and took it out of his father hands and read it. "Alright, were all going, because i don't have time to close this place up. Its too dangerous to leave open unattended as i have two projects here that are highly dangerous in unskilled hands."
Tolly came over and picked Akira up; "Alright munchkin, you feel up to flying with your papa, or do you want to ride?" Akira said the first thing that came to mind; "My head hurts, i don't feel like flying, and i'll ride." Tolly smiled and kissed the bump on her head; "There it should be all better, but lets go."

Yuma sat at the bar facing the doorway, she was working on a bowl of ice cream, but it was melting about as fast as Yuma was eating it. Roo brought out the pitcher of ice water and refilled her glass. "I believe this is the first time you haven't ordered a alcoholic beverage when you came in here." Yuma smiled letting the spoon graze across the surface of the ice cream. "I won't be drinking again for a long time Roo." Roo got a concerned look on her face; "What's wrong Yuma, is it that new man in your life, tell me he is not so controlling he would stop you drinking, because you rarely lost your head in here."
Yuma took a bite of the ice cream to keep herself from blabbing the truth of why she could drink alcohol anymore. Yuma didn't want the rest of her step brothers and sisters to know she was having a baby. They would demand details, and she felt it was none of their business and that they should just be happy that she was happy. "No its not his fault at all Roo, he is kind and caring, almost to a fault, he worries about me, and its just complicated. I really don't want to talk about it Roo." Roo reached over and patted her shoulder, you know where to find me if you do want to talk, but I'll keep the water coming."
Roo walked down the line to check on people needing refills on their drinks. Sorrow just sighed thinking to herself; He's probably mad I left the house when he told me to stay and just write things down that I needed, and wouldn't be surprised if I find him waiting up for me at Mary's

Yuma smiled; "Sure, so long as I can fly for ten minutes a day under your supervision of course, because later I won't be able too. That and it won't be so stressful on my body to just hop of your island and glide around a bit before just walking back up to it. Silly request I know, but one of the small things that I'll miss when I'm laying on them, trying to remember what its like to have air underneath them. As for the time frame, take all the time you need, believe me, there is not much happening here, and not really bored so much as it's habit that I've become accustomed to. The first few months will be hell, breaking bad habits, and learning new things for the future. Oh by the way, you didn't need to run here, unless the parchment has a prankster side to it, i put a no rush piece in my message, but where did you go that was so far?" Yuma took a bite of her ice cream.

"I know my stress levels for a un-pregnant me, Kaos, why do you think I'm asking for supervision, because I'll push myself without thinking and waking up sore and with strained muscles is fine when there isn't precious cargo being carried. These first few months are going to be the hardest for me because other then for puking my guts out in the morning I'll feel relatively fine. I may cross a line that you on the other hand know from working on my body I shouldn't cross, aka carrying heavy loads while flying, haven't carried anything heavier since the day you told me that bit of advice." Yuma left the melted ice cream sit in the bowl. "So all the little quirks and things i do in a day that by themselves are not all that stressful, all add up to danger real quick, and you'll know to step in sooner and put your foot down even if i'm angry about it. I'm not to fond of this advice, but it may serve the needs. You can use those damnable barrier boxes Akuma loves to put me in to get me to stop if i'm being a right real pain in the a** about not listening."
Yuma took a sip of her water changing subjects; 'So what did you see my father about?"

"We were fortunate to have found Raathemay when we did or she would have joined Quannah in the Abyss. I wasn't to worried about Tolly, the man is too damn stubborn to die so easily, but surely your visit had nothing to do with the 2nd option presented to me." Yuma's tone was playful, and she hopped her bar stool closer to his and leaned against him."

Yuma giggled and squirmed on her bar stool. "I won't be for long if you keep nibbling on my ear, but then you'd be running the risk of me doing something rather embarrassing." She moved one of her hands to rub his chest, this of course caused her to turn her head, but she put his waiting lips to work as she kissed him.
Roo stopped short and did an about face smiling as she walked back to clean glasses. She could close up a bit later, and leave to the two lovers to enjoy the moment their having together."

Yuma thought a moment enjoying the kisses; "Will Vermillion be going back with us? If so then probably should wait a day yet, but if not we can go right now if you'd like."
