When Fiona's grandmother; Sarah, had finished with the call she made some warm milk and gave it to Fiona. "There we go," she said as Fiona drank. George, Fiona's grandfather, turned to Charlamane.
"So what happened?" he asked. Charlamane looked up and sighed.
"People started coming through the barrier. I don't know how, though. It should have been imposable to go though! Yet they did..." Charlamane's voice trailed off.
"I see. Now, how many were there, Charlie?" Sarah asked.
"Around three or four. Nothing I couldn't handle, but I couldn't do anything because I didn't want Fiona to get hurt," Charlamane replied.
Fiona has now fallen asleep and Jayson and Niyabi are there. It's night time; sun had set only a few hours ago.
"Not too far into the night, why don't I go and get some firewood?" Charlamane asked.
"No, Charlie. Who knows what might be out there now," Sarah said.
"But I can handle it! Trust me!" Charlamane whined. Jayson sighed and stood up.
"I'll go with you. Now let's go," he said. Charlamane jumped with joy. She might be 230 but she still acts like a kid.
"Okay! Just wait, let me get my coat." In a few minuets they took off and flew over the forest looking for some weak trees to cut down.

Lord Drago smiled as he heard the crunching of snow. He turned around to see the woman from before, as well as somebody new. "Well well well, now we want to talk do we?" He said to himself thoughtfully as he leaped into a nearby tree. "C'mon, I just want to talk..." Whispered Drago.

Inou trudged on towards the house until he reached the doorstep and knocked at the door. I hope the same lady from the other house doesn't open the door again

Niyabi opened the door and asked, "Who are you?"
So far, Jayson and Charlamane have taken down 3 trees and were taking them back to the house. "I wonder what's for dinner," Charlamane wondered.
"Don't start talking about food, now. You'll get me hungry," Jayson said jokingly.

Lord Drago looked at the women chopping down trees and took out a small pan flute. He licked his lips and began to play softly and nearly silently, but the tune grew in intensity as he played louder. Drago jumped down from the tree and continued to play. Soon, multiple tunes started up from nowhere. The sound was nearly deafening at this point, with a concerto of pan flutes and drums. The instrument was known as the Flute of Desire, and it would draw anyone or anything sentient within a mile of the player. He was going to use this as a peace maker, to prove that he wasn't dangerous.

Saeska landed and sat down on the roof of the house, probing the minds of the people. She got some very clear thoughts, some vague. She wondered if these people had a phone. She really hoped they did. She still didn't feel ready to go to the city. Not with her ability to get distracted.
"Just as I am now...." She muttered as she watched a winter bird go by. Soon, though, her sttention was caught by the pair of people leaving. One was the woman she had seen earlier, the other a man that she did not recognize. They went out. About twenty minutes later, Saeska dropped down and was about to knock on the door when she heard something. It was the most beautiful sound, as if it were playing the very tune of her soul. It was distant and she almost ignored it.
Almost.
But she had to find that sound. She had to know who was playing it and where she could get that instrument. So, with a insatiable curiosity, she turned on her heel and went off in search of it.

Soon thousands of instruments joined into the already immaculate and fantastic chorus, from every direction to a similar enchanting tune. The meer sound was enough to melt the heart of the toughest soldier.

Celest Demonlane Niyabi opened the door and asked, "Who is it?" So far, Jayson and Charlamane have taken down 3 trees and were taking them back to the house. "I wonder what's for dinner," Charlamane wondered. "Don't start talking about food, now. You'll get me hungry," Jayson said jokingly. (Your question confuses me since you opened the door and asked who was there...) "Hello, I'm looking for help and I think you just might be the person to do it." Inou responds to the person that opened the door, "have you ever heard of the names Eldwyn or Lisa Kyo?"

Saeska was close to the sound but its power over her seemed to diminish as she got distracted by the numerous things in her field of view.
"I need to go ask for a phone." She said, surprised she hadn't wandered very far but it still seemed distant. She turned back but still listened a little to the happy and delicious music eminating from her previous direction. She went back up to the house and saw that Inou had gotten someone to open the door.
"Hey! Inou! Does she have a phone?"

Lord Drago spied the woman from before, Saeska. Realizing that the flute wasn't working at its full irresistable level. He stopped the playing instantly, and resumed a different tune. This one wasn't happy and peppy, but slow and mournful. Slow, and saintful, the music was now at the point where the strongest minds were entranced. Lord Drago smiled as he sensed random people start to follow the tune.

The music changed. It was slow and peaceful. Her mind envisioned a ballroom dance from one of her favorite novels. She turned back and slowly followed the slow music, helpless in its musical waves. It calmed her worries, her mind went blank and she began to dance slightly, waving back and forth.

(Heh... sweatdrop I corrected it!!)
Niyabi stared blankly at the person who stood before her. "Well... no, sorry. I haven't seen or heard of anyone by that name, really..." she said, her voice trailed off as she looked up in the sky; eyes becoming brighter. Soon she waved and jumped up and down. "Hey, Charlie! Jayson! Come on! It's dinner soon!" she shouted quickly.
Charlamane quickly glanced at Inou at the door. "That's him! That's one of the people who were at the house! He shot at it with immense force!" Charlamane shouted. Jayson heard this and piled down the logs quickly to Charlamane's arms and dived down towards Inou, as fast as a bullet; claws and teeth charged.

Lord Drago saw the woman from before stumbling blindly and carelessly towards him. He played more determined to draw the people in the house towards the song. Before he could, though, he saw Inou at the house being charged at by a mysterious figure. Drago frowned as he pointed at the man and shot him with a crimson blast of energy, still playing as he did so. He was only satisfied when the assailant was in the snow. Drago put up an invisible wall around him so that the man couldn't try and attack him back, and he continued to play with such determination that no one could resist it at that point.

"What is... that sound..." Saeska muttered as she continued towards it. It was close now. "Red energy.....?" She turned back and saw a man lying in the snow. Inou was looking quite surprised. "Is he okay?" She asked the emptiness. She knew someone was there but didn't know who. Were they hostile? Suddenly her will and instincts kicked in. If he meant her harm, then she had to stop going towards it. She looked back at Inou and dug in her heels, falling to the ground and covering her ears. She had to be strong.
Find the Source. Find it and make it stop. She thought and sent out her mind. It was the familiar man. The other guy... Lord Drago.
Stop Playing that music! That man is hurt!
