Tsukiko watched excitedly as rainbows filled the room. The gleam on her face was like that of a child; pure and genuine. Suddenly, the rainbows faded as Will got up. She payed no mind to the screeching in the background, but watched as Will ran around the castle. Tsukiko was reflecting the image of the window above, the background. Leon was out of range to see himself in the mirror. Tsukiko began to wonder: What does he use that weapon for...?

Will was running laps around the tree when he got his foot caught in a root from the tree sticking out of the ground and tripped. Tears appeared in his eyes but he remembered what he had been taught: crying would do him no good. He pulled up part of his pants, and saw that he had skinned his knee. Instantly, he put down his pants and looked away. There was more than his fair share of blood. He leaned up against the tree and picked up a nearby apple that had fallen from the tree. He bit in and tried to calm down before calling for any help. His voice would break instantly.

Leon watched Will as he became injured. He opened the window and swung out onto the roof below him, he grabbed the edge and dropped down, landing on his feet almost perfectly. He walked slowly toward Will, and stood before him. The shadowy veil looked menacing in the shade of the tree. The emotionless face looked down at him, "Let me help you." He said in a harsh tone. He grabbed Will's tunic and threw him over his shoulder, he carried him back up into the mirror chamber, and dropped him on the ground.

Will lay down on the cold floor. He was upset but at least someone had cared enough to take him to shelter. He was in agonizing pain but it helped to know that someone had the actual knowledge to understand when he was in pain. He didn't know any healing spells so he decided to let the gash heal by itself. "Thank you." he said to Leon before taking a slight rest.

Tsukiko gave a sad smile that could not be seen. The sun was facing the mirror now, reflecting a great glare upon the wall below the window. By Tsukiko's estimate, it was about late afternoon, possibly evening. From within the mirror, she giggled for some strange reason that she couldn't figure out. Maybe it was that deep down, she was anxiously anticipating the night.

Leon knelt beside Will. "You cannot walk now, nor can I help heal you. But Maybe I can ease the pain..." He said as he took out his flute, he played music that was somewhat cheerful, it made things seem peaceful, and it took people take their minds of thing's.

As the soothing tune was played, Will was lullabied to sleep. Now calm, he was able to concentrate. He slept calmly for several hours. He had curled up and tried to keep warm with his tunic.

Leon looked at the sun witch was heading into it's evening phase... Leon stood outside of the old castle. He saw the path that headed to town, he considered something then headed off after laying down his Halberd and shield. He kept to the shadows as he crept along the path, the sunlight was not going to be on his side for the time being. He stepped into the town, he saw a food cart stationed in the square, he acted calmly trying not to draw attention. He looked behind him, then to the salesman. When Leon stepped before the cart he perked up, it appeared there had been no customers for some time, so the salesman didn't really care if it was a fully robed child, he was happy to have someone buy something finally. Leon took a handful of various fruits, and stuck them in a pouch. The salesman stated how much they were in total. As Leon reached for several silver coins, a firm hand grasped his shoulder. He turned sharply around to see an armored man that was incredibly familiar.
"Thait Lebreo, I thought we agreed that you were not to disturb the piece in this town, yet still legally remainder on it's premise. And now your neglecting to pay this merchant for the food that you are taking?" He said looking down at Leon.
"Captain Ravina, you and I both know that thirteen years have past since you knew me by that name..." Leon said calmly. He took out the silver and placed it on the table. "And I am no thief, surely such a proud knight as yourself would never mean such a false accusation." He said turning.
Captain Ravina grasped Leon again before he left. "Remember boy if you-" He was cut off.
"My being has existed for 360 years, I know what happens." Leon hissed before leaving. He did not hold much spite against Ravina, it was only when he made a scene and lectured Leon about keeping order, he was a man of honor and he respected that. Leon was not all too welcome in the town because the mortal men there did not understand him. The youth had once taken to Leon, but the mothers found this horrible, and kept the youth away. He did not hate them, but soon he found himself caring less for humans, and then stopped trying to be human. Despite his blindness he saw what someone could really be, some of witch he did not like. He kept in the shadows all the way back to the castle. He climbed the steps with the sack in hand, and he reached the mirror chamber, still finding Will asleep. He sat next to him quietly.

Will was still asleep so he had know knowledge of Leon being beside him. As the sun set, the last of its rays were upon his face, reflecting off of his glasses. His dream was becoming less real each minute that passed by. He wouldn't awake until the sun completely set and the light from the moon touched his eyes.

When Leon left, Tsukiko decided to make as she normally would for a day. She completely vanished from that mirror; well, her spirit within that mirror vanished, for she could not be seen. He is blind... she thought, while looking at a masquerade ball in France and reflecting their movements as they danced that is why he can sense my presence. They say that people without sight have enhanced their other senses. I believe he has.. Tsukiko watched the men and women in elegant dresses swinging back and forth from a small mirror on the wall. A man in a tuxedo walked up to the mirror and found his image looking back at him. Tsukiko adjusted her necktie, and turned back around to join the dance. As she walked in the opposite direction, she disappeared from that mirror, and went back to the previous one. The music abruptly stopped and silence filled the room. But Leon and Will were in the corner.

The sun set, The moon began rising slowly. Leon looked upward out the window, he climbed out the window, and up to the roof, he sat in the moon's light. Slowly he began regaining his strength, He remained in meditation. Not doing anything...

Will's eyes opened slowly and after several blinks, he was wide awake. He sat up looking at the moon rising over the horizon. He went outside to the tree. He was back soon. He was holding a telescope, the stand in one hand and the spy glass in the other. He set it up by the window and peered out to the moon. He knew where Leon was but he wanted some time to himself at the moment. So he continued to look at the moon, stars, space. He took a note book from his pile and started writing down coordinates. All this took him longer than usual because of his scraped knee. Never the less, however, he managed to get around. Then suddenly, he spoke, "There is going to be a lunar eclipse not a month from now."

Tsukiko's image started to fade into the mirror. At first, with the first touches of the moon's light, she was like a ghost. A person walking by wouldn't be able to pick her out; only if they knew she was there. At first, she saw no one in the room. Puzzled by this, she tilted her head to the side slightly, right as Will came back into the room. She watched him set up the telescope and peer out of it for a while. She also observed Leon sitting on the window under the moonlight. Then she heard Will say that there would be a lunar eclipse soon. Gasping, Tsukiko threw her hands against the glass and looked, wide-eyed, at Will.

Leon heard this, and after he was rested enough, swung back in from the roof. "What does this mean?" He asked.

"What does what mean?" questioned Will. " A Lunar Eclipse? When the Earth is in between the Sun and the moon. It casts a shadow upon the moon that makes it appear red. There is also such a thing as a Solar Eclipse. It occurs when the moon is in between the Earth and the Sun. It's much rarer and many have fooled monarchs into believing that they were going to take away the Sun if their demands were not met by predicting this event." Will finished.
