Her bottom lip trembled, she bit into it for a few moments. "...I saw ye, but ye were dead, decay'd, an' Ari was burned, all over charr'd, an' Erike he was...here" Her gaze swept around, falling on her brother, his eyes widened. "-I'm still 'allucinating..."
Erike: He sighed. "Yer not Phi..."
Phia raised her brows, confused. "But yer dead!" She chewed her bottom lip again.
Erike: He looked at her sadly. "I...I was brought back...reborn I guess...into the body of a cat...one who ye named Creepy Stalker Kitty..." Erike smiled a little bit. His face turning solemn. "I'm sorry Phi...I am..."
Phia's eyes watered a bit, she nodded. "O-Ok...Do-Does Ma an' Da know?"
Erike: He shook his head. "Ye'd be the firs...of our old family..."
"Our old family?" Phia looked to Aria then up to D. "Y-ye knew?" Her gaze dropped, her voice was barely a whisper. "Ye knew an' ye didn't tell me?"
Erike: He stepped forward. "Phi They couldn't I told them not to It's not their fault-"
Phia pushed away from D and turned, she held her hand up to Erike to silence him. She walked towards the mansion, her steps were sloppy at best. There was just a certain hurt about her, once inside, she supported herself with a hand on the wall, dissapearing into the shadows, going to the one place even D couldn't get to, her sanctuary. There she passed out.
Erike: He sighed and ran a hand through his hair, looking to his niece and then to his brother in Law. "This is my fault...I should talk to 'er"
Aria looked up, she wasn't feeling to well thanks to her mother. "She won't listen, all of us know that...just give her time..."

Draeken was only able to blink in hurt confusion at the exchange once Phia became coherent. He understood it somewhat though. He had known and had not told her. With a heavy sigh he nodded at what Aria had said. "She will come around in her own time. Until then all we can do is wait and go about our lives." Looking to the mansion just as Phia went inside, he sighed again and headed towards the mansion after her, knowing that she would already be locked away in her sanctuary by the time he got inside.

Erike: He sighed watching D go in before looking to Aria and Aethi. "...It would 'ave made things too complicat'd.... I did do the righ' thing in not telling 'er...right?"
Aria sighed and looked to him then to Aethi, lacing her fingers in her girlfriend's. Aria brought the two hands up, kissing the back of Aethi's, it was a simple gesture but it spoke volumes, this relationship wasn't as much about play anymore. She looked to Erike. "Sometimes you hurt people you love the most."

Aethi smiled at Ari weakly, but not unlovingly. The mood was a bit sour for smiling outright. "That is true. Sometimes protecting the ones you love will result in hurting them even more. I can understand why you wouldnt want her to know in the beginning, though. I tried to keep my identity secret at one point if you remember." She smiled nervously and looked at Ari again.

"Yes you did." Aria nodded softly.
Erike: He looked to them, "Thank you...I think I'm just going to go inside...think about this a bit..." He changed into the tiny black kitten as always and scurried inside.
Aria looked to Aethi and suddenly wrapped her arms around her tightly, burying her face in Aethi's neck. "If I hurt you ever....slap me" came muffled words. Aria's lips brushed against Aethi's skin.

Inside the mansion, wandering its halls, Truinthil stopped and blinked. He had breifly felt something very familiar out in the direction of the garden. Thinking on it for a moment he shrugged and shook his head. "Nah. Couldnt be."

Aethi almost gasped when Ari hugged her suddenly, but then smiled and hugged back. "I don think you could ever hurt me in such a way. But, I if you were to do so, I don think I would smack you. I think something else would suffice." She said that last bit with a smirk on her face and a note of mischief in her voice.

Getting bored with walking on the floor, he decided walk on the ceiling. Sure the blood was rushing through his head, but for some reason it helped him think. His thoughts ran through what happened earlier in the day, with the powers showing up to attempt to steal old D. The explosion that rocked the mansion. He wondered if his life would change at all if old D was taken out of Draeken's head. Or what would happen to...well everything around here....would things be better?...no. He thought shaking his head furiously, causing a dizzy spell that made him sit down on the ceiling, this mansion wouldnt be here, there wouldnt be a happy...if not dysfunctional family living here, with one more on the way. Besides, he thought, it probably isnt safe thinking those thoughts with someone as powerful a telepath as D around.... Sparkei scratched his head while continuing to sit on the ceiling. He was interested in what was transpiring in the mansion...sensing disterbances in power, and the appearance of another...darker power. He isnt one for confrontation......but as is the life of a ninja....fighting was in his blood. So if somethin was gonna happen....he'd be ready...

Aria smirked, raising a brow at Aethi. "Really now?....are you going to give me a clue as to what love?" She whispered against Aethi's neck, nipping the skin there.
Athaele sat, crouched in a tree a mile away, hiding most of the elements of her aura that seperated her from Phia. She stared in the direction of the mansion. "He's still there..." she said softly, almost forlorn in tone. "Why?! What is he planing??" Her hair whipped around her form, in her face she brushed it away, just staring. "Truinthil?" She asked softly with her mind. It sounded like Phi's voice slightly, incase D were to pick it up.

Truinthil had found himself dozing in a large and very comfortable chair in an empty parlor when Athaele's tentative telepathy found him. Jerking his head up and wiping drool from his lips he blinked and looked around for a moment before realizing what he had 'heard'. "Athaele? What are you doing here? Do you realize how fragile the situation around here is right now? Draeken could decide he doesnt want you around at all anymore and try to eliminate you. He's quite stressed." Truinthil carefully made sure that the message would not be intercepted by anyone by hiding the 'weave' that made it.

"Well if I were to tell you, it wouldnt be worth doing. You'd be prepared. Surprises are more fun anyway." Aethi said as she ran a fingernail lightly up Ari's back. "You might be angry with me afterwards though." She laughed then and dug her nail in harder when she began to bring it back down Ari's back.

Truinthil Truinthil had found himself dozing in a large and very comfortable chair in an empty parlor when Athaele's tentative telepathy found him. Jerking his head up and wiping drool from his lips he blinked and looked around for a moment before realizing what he had 'heard'. "Athaele? What are you doing here? Do you realize how fragile the situation around here is right now? Draeken could decide he doesnt want you around at all anymore and try to eliminate you. He's quite stressed." Truinthil carefully made sure that the message would not be intercepted by anyone by hiding the 'weave' that made it. Athaele blinked some. "The same could be said of yourself Truinthil...why in the hell are you still there, I'm surpised one of them hasn't tried to kill you yet. Phia is still mad with rage at you for killing ...that man...the first time..." Atha's voice was dripping in digust at the mention of Draeken. "And what warrants the situation to be so dire? What has happend? I know nothing, I cannot invade Phia's thoughts any longer, she's gotten wise..." Atha was very careful of who heard her words, which was no one but Truinthil.Aethi-Naeh "Well if I were to tell you, it wouldnt be worth doing. You'd be prepared. Surprises are more fun anyway." Aethi said as she ran a fingernail lightly up Ari's back. "You might be angry with me afterwards though." She laughed then and dug her nail in harder when she began to bring it back down Ari's back. Aria lifted her head some. "So long as it doesn't involve fire...I welcome any suprise..." She purred, though very serious about the fire, Aria was terrified of such, her fear of flame almost rivaled her mother's fear of spiders. As Aethi's finger made its way down her back, Aria's arms shot up, clutching her dress, pressing it too her as it was about to fall off. Aethi's nail had sliced right through the back of the fabric.

T: "I am welcome here. I am not the same as I once was. That spell our daughter used on the merged being that Draeken and I made had a permanent effect on me as well." He chuckled to himself at that then shrugged. "As for what's happened here...It seems the Wills of this universe are angry at the old codger in that boy Draeken's head. They want to eliminate him from six thousand years of history and make it as if he really did completely die back then. Meaning I would go too. Very likely."
Aethi: Realizing she had cut the strap to Ari's dress, she giggled. "Oops. I honestly didnt intend for that to happen. Just ment to leave a nice little red mark on your back." Her eyes were wide with honest embarressment. "But, we can leave it like that if you really want. And no, any surprises I would throw at you wouldnt involve fire. Well, maybe candles, but that's about it."

My God..." Atha's lips pulled into a grin as he mentioned Old Draeken being wiped from the history books. "No one to get in my way when I'd kill Phia..." but as soon as he mentioned his non existance, her lips fell into a frown and her eyes widened. A soft "No" escaped her mind. She never made her emotions aparent, she tried to be the heartless goddess she once was, Truinthil however changed that in more ways then one. Aethi Aethi: Realizing she had cut the strap to Ari's dress, she giggled. "Oops. I honestly didnt intend for that to happen. Just ment to leave a nice little red mark on your back." Her eyes were wide with honest embarressment. "But, we can leave it like that if you really want. And no, any surprises I would throw at you wouldnt involve fire. Well, maybe candles, but that's about it." Aria smirked some, turning, indeed there it was, clear as day, a long straight red line down her back, centering on her spine. "Candles I can live with..." She smiled wider.

Truinthil smiled at the barely 'heard' "no" and shook his head. "Indeed. There is the chance that Phia may have never come to this plane either. Or at least not to the BC. Thats a factor that is almost completely unknown. But I would, inevitably, be dead and we would have never met."
Aethi grinned at the red mark and put her hands around Ari's waist. "Are you suggesting we light some candles now my dear Ari?" Her eyebrow raised in question, her voice dropping in a mischievious, but sensual manner.
