Inhaling deeply, her eyes were wide open, afraid of what he was saying. Did he really feel like that? Why was he leaving. "...No, don't..." She cut herself short as a few words came to mind, a few words she had seemed to remember from minutes ago.. don't be frightened by the mist..
Holding her breath, Raine closed her eyes tightly, on the ground on her hands and knees. That's not.. him...
"No..." She whispered lowly, only to hear a melody from an enchanted harp soon after. Her heart nearly stopped as she remembered the god forsaken sound... the gentle plucking from the golden instrument. Her eyes widened. This is a hoax... She told herself calmly. "Robin... cannot still be alive..."

"I thought I could use you for a bit longer, but you're worthless. You don't bring me anything but misery." Durithill continued, ignoring what Raine was saying.

As Robin got closer, the second figure began to disappear from her sight. ' Raine! ' She called out to the women as she neared her. Suddenly, the path began to fade, once again she was trapped in the mist, blinded. She looked around her, seeing that the second path was still lit. It seemed that only the part infront of her had disappeared. She brought her harp up once more, and was about to play the song again when she heard another womens voice coming from the end of the second path. Hearing her clearly, Robin lowered her harp and called out to the mysterious women. ' Who's there?... Answer me!' It wasn't the smartest idea, but something inside her was urging her to.

"Stop..." She called, lifting her hands from the ground up over her ears. She didn't want to hear the false words the illusion was speaking. "...The fog.." Even though she knew that the things she was hearing and seeing was before her, she closed her eyes tightly as another tear slipped down her cheek.
"Why would..." Veronica sighed, pushing her hair from her face. "This is childish... who's ever bright idea this was... needs to think a few things through. Robin is dead, and there's nothing else to it." The tomb infront of her, was not Robin's, but it was her younger sister's; Hikaru.

"Stop?" Asked Durithill turning to her. "You stop, Raine. Stop following me, stop trying to help me. You're useless, weak, I don't need you any more." he said, flames begining to rise up at his feet.

Raine and Durithill had totally slipped her mind. She was now more concerned with the other women. She quickley walked towards the light, taking her chakrams in her hands. She tried cutting throught the fog, but obviously, that didn't work. Placing both chakrams in one hand she grabbed her harp and plucked a single string. The note shot through the fog like an arrow, revealing a narrow path. Quickley and oh so quietly she darted down the path of pure light. She came to an abrupt stop as soon as she heard the women speak her name once more. Dead?... She stayed quiet, placing the harp back into its carrier, and readying herself with her chakrams.

"...." Though she knew it was only fog, and she was told not to be afraid of it, that final sentence seemed to have teard her apart. "I...--" She paused, her eyes lowering and scanning the ground.
"Foolish." She growled as her sythe had appeared in her hand. "The work of Durithill and that wench.." She swung her sythe down onto the tombstone with great force, shattering it to pieces. "Only Robin is dead... not Hikaru. It's not the other way around."

"When will you learn, Raine? I never loved you, I only used you. And you're of no use to me anymore." he said, and the flames danced up around him as if angry.

(( Shiz...>.< Sorry... DD: ))
Edit: Robin stepped out into the clearing where Veronica was standing. She watched, wondering what the women was looking so intently at. '...' She said not a word, while tucking her chakrams back onto her belt. ' You are Veronica.. Aren't you?' She said softly, not wanting to intimadate her. Now would be the perfect time to issure their plan. Robin would befriend Veronica, or atleast 'join' her.

Spinning around and hearing a voice and mist a few feet ahead of her, Veronica narrowed her eyes. "Illusion.." She hissed lowly under her breath. "I knew it." Jumping back, Veronica sunk behind a tree, waiting to see the outcome of what was going to happen. This could be my chance... She thought to herself, as another thought came to mind. Why did I hear... Robin's harp?
Keeping her eyes closed, Raine held her hands over her ears and shook her head, refusing to listen. It was her greatest fear of him dying. "If that's... how you want it.." She managed to whisper. "So be it.. as long as you're.. happy.."

' Veronica..' She watched as the women disappeared into the fog. Illusions?... What illusions? Robin hadn't experienced any illusions since entering the fog, but it seemed that everyone else had. She couldn't figure out why it hadn't effected her. She took a step forward, then quickley whirled around and stared at the glowing path her harp had made.' That's it! The harp! It must be offsetting the mist's effect on me.' She thought outloud, not thinking that Veronica might still be in earshot.

Veronica froze, peering around the tree. "...Robin?!" She called her name aloud. Her heart nearly froze. "But she's....." The Vampire's hands were quicering slightly, not from fear, but from nervousness and everything else in general.

' Dead?' She asked while slowly turning around. Who was Veronica to her? ' I am Robin...Robin Valentine. ' She looked in the general direction of Veronica. ' And you are the one they call Veronica, are you not?' She was guessing, but by the way Raine and Durithill had talked about her, it was a very educated guess.

Veronica held still. "...R--Robin?" She spoke her name, stuttering slightly. Her eyes darted down to the ground. "You--" Closing her mouth, Veronica darted her eyes to the harp she carried on her back.
