* Len ((right)) & Laren ((left)) * xXx“I'll try,” Laren breathed out only to take off in the direction they'd come from. In the distance, smoke clouds rose above the trees along with flashes of light. The sky still seemed a bright blue with few clouds in the sky, but the ground had grown dark and covered quickly in a thick fog. Something like that of a howl echoed through the trees followed by a sharp yelp and something that sounded like chuckles.
xXxWhen a clawed hand reached up just above the fog, setting itself on the windowsill, Laren seemed to appear out of nowhere with a long black bow in hand in which an arrow with a large arrowhead for it's tip lopped off the fingers without the slightest bit of resistance. “Get your filthy paws off of my house,” he growled in a sinister tone, the feral look in his eyes making whatever these creatures were yelp and drop back into the fog. The dark haired twin landed on one foot on the windowsill only to snatch the arrow back out of it and fire it with an inhuman speed back into the fog. A dark snicker followed after something that sounded like a wail only for Laren to jump off the windowsill and vanish into the fog. Len and Terra Vanitas were nowhere to be seen from the main house although it was probably more than obvious that the flashes of light in the distance came from one of them.
xxxAs soon as it'd started, it seemed to end. The fog became a light mist yet still never showed what these creatures that'd appeared out of thin air's corpses. It was as if the fog had taken their bodies with it. Len and Laren eventually emerged from the trees with Terra Vanitas wearing shackles around his wrists and a solid black helmet over his head. Len was slightly limping whereas Laren still had a semi-feral gleam in his eyes, both had a red string attached to the shackles while it led to both of their pinkies. Every once in a while the string would pulse a bright red only for red sparks to dance around the shackles and helmet along with something like a hiss from the unwilling dark being shuffling along behind the two.

Rachel gasped slightly and kept back from the window when the hand appeared. She watched the scene and Laren disappear once more. Her eyes widened as she debated on what to do, but not long after, she could see his figure as well as Len's as they came out of the woods. She noticed the dark figure, which she assumed was Terra Vanitas.
Rachel hurried out of the room and downstairs, pulling her brown curls back into a pony tail, and walking to the back door. She waited there patiently, fiddling with her fingers as she thought to herself. Many questions raced through her mind as her curiousity grew, but she knew she shouldn't ask Laren right away. After all, he still had that gleam in his eye, which she could help but think of as extremely alluring. She had always been fond of danger, even if she seemed to be shy and sweet.

* Len ((right)) & Laren ((left)) * xXx“Back to your rooms, Terra Vanitas. If you step foot into one not labelled as yours, you'll regret it,” Laren purred while letting the string burst into flames. The helmet vanished, exposing the odd looking male from earlier beneath it only for him and Len to continue into the house and past Rachel. “Someone's in more trouble than I am~ Good luck with him, girlie,” was all Terra Vanitas' voice hummed cheerfully as he walked behind the shorter twin. He still had the shackles on, but it continued pulsing that bright red as it had when Laren was still attached to him.
xXxLaren then let his smile fade to where he was somewhat glaring at Rachel. “Rachel, you seem to be... Bad at following directions,” he stated calmly while crossing his arms over his chest. “It was very simple directions too. May I ask why you disobeyed me?” Tapping his fingers against his arm, he padded up to the female without crunching a leaf or snapping a twig. That feral gleam in his eyes never seemed to flicker into that smooth, calm version of himself that she'd seen since she got here.

Rachel didn't say anything to the comment the of male made, but instead watched him leave with Len. She waited a few moments before letting her eyes meet Laren, hearing the tone of his voice. "Well.. I um, just wanted to look out for a few seconds..." She mumbled, before her eyes fell to the ground. She couldn't concentrate when he gave her that look and she wasn't sure how to handle it. "I'm sorry." She said, glancing up again at him quickly. Rachel crossed her arms behind her back as she waited patiently for his reply, wondering what was going through his head.

* Len ((right)) & Laren ((left)) * xXx“Oh. You're sorry. Well that just fixes everything. That just gives you a clean fxckin' slate,” Laren started out calmly before his voice started becoming a sarcastic growl. His hand quickly slid out of place from across his chest to where he was gripping her jawbone and cheekbones in one hand, his voice dropping by several octaves so she was the only one who could hear him. “Do not disobey me again... If I hadn't have noticed their attraction to the house, I could've lost you. Your disobedience could've gotten you killed. Would you'd have been happy to see me sad? To see me unravel?”
xXxReleasing his grip from her face, the dark haired male crossed his arms back over his chest and took a slow, deep breath. “Disobey me again, Rachel, and either Terra Vanitas or myself will consume you. If anything, you'll still be nearby and it won't be as depressing as having those things steal you away from me. Your first, last and only warning,” he breathed in that almost purr of his that sounded almost seductive even if what he'd said wasn't exactly something that would normally be seductive. He then started to head inside while softly singing I Love To See You Cry by Enrique Iglesias. His entire being said that if anything, if he couldn't have her, no one would although he wasn't quite sure why he felt possessive over her all of a sudden. Pausing in his step, he glanced over his shoulder only to motion Rachel to come back inside with him while keeping his hand held out to the side so she could hold it. Len and Laren weren't exactly the best of guys to attempt dating, but at least Laren was attempting dating instead of just clinging to his twin for the rest of his life.

Rachel gasped slightly when he grasped her face, and she stared up at him with a look of surprise. When he asked her if she would like to see him sad, she frowned slightly. "I would never want to see you unravel.." She mumbled through his grasp, not breaking eye contact once he let her go. "I understand, I won't disobey you again. I guess I didn't think about the consequences.." She said softly, before following along beside him, taking his hand. Rachel glanced up at him from the corner of her eye, enjoying the way her hand fit into his but also taking what he said into consideration. Consumed? She didn't like the sound of that at all. Rachel did notice a slight change in his attitude toward her, however. She didn't know if it was that look in his eye that said "danger" or if it was the purr of his voice, but she was growing even more attracted to him, even if it was odd.

* Len ((right)) & Laren ((left)) * xXx“Please don't ever disobey me... Len's already disobeyed me and created Terra Vanitas so now I have to try making that thing behave. I don't have a really calm, playfulness as Len and should you be involved in a fight... Well, I might not be able to keep myself under control,” Laren purred in a low voice, his gaze sliding back into the false serenity he'd shown when the girl had just arrived to the estate. “I tend to get caught up in the rush of killing things thus forgetting who is friend and who is foe. You heard the whimpers and that was just because I was near them. Len would probably have to seal me away if I were to accidentally kill someone whom I care deeply for. He'd probably even attempt to find the magical music twins just to lock me away in Pandora's Box.”
xXxFinding he was chattering away too much, the dark haired male took a slow breath while only just noticing that he'd been walking them through the house on a subconscious path to what used to be the boy's parent's bedroom. Lightly tapping his fingertips against the door, he closed his eyes and let out a soft sigh. Why couldn't they still be around? They gave the best advice and could control his bloodlust easier than Len could. Len, of course, had started going back around the house in order to find something to do since Terra Vanitas was grumbling unintelligibly in the basement and Laren was transfixed on that girl. Perhaps hooking them up was a bad idea. He no longer had Laren to goof off with anymore. Noticing his twin standing outside of their parent's bedroom with Rachel, he gave a soft sigh of his own before standing behind them quietly.

Rachel frowned slightly as they stopped at the door, and she squeezed his hand gently. "I promise I won't put myself into harms way anymore. I'll control my curiosity." she replied softly, before feeling a presence come up behind the two. She turned her head to see Len standing there, and she gave him a gentle smile. "I'll leave you two alone. Go have some brother bonding time or something." Rachel gave Laren's hand another quick squeeze before walking off down the hall. She made her way back to her room and stepped inside, closing the door behind her before walking over to her bed and laying down on her stomach. Reaching under the bed, she found her sketchbook and pulled it out, laying it in front of her and opening it to a blank page. She took out the pencil she kept in the binding and started to draw the outline of a creature, hands similar to the one that had appeared on the sill.

* Len ((right)) & Laren ((left)) * xXxLaren simply nodded in silence although he hadn't seemed to notice Len standing behind them. The shorter twin just flashed a gentle smile back at Rachel before glancing back at his brother. It wasn't all too surprising to see his brother coming to this door as if for advice for they had always gone to their parents for advice. Both were still rather upset by their parents no longer being amongst the living.
xxxOnce Rachel had left, Len wrapped his arms around his brother's midtorso and gently placed his cheek against his back. “You're scaring yourself with the what ifs, Laren,” he murmured softly. “I know... I always do,” was Laren's response as he lightly patted his brother's arms. Without much else being said, the two stepped inside the room which appeared like no one had touched a thing since their parents passed away yet never gathered dust.
xxx“I could try drawing what they look like for you... You can't tell Len or Laren I entered a room that wasn't designated as mine and probably have to redraw it yourself, but it might settle your curiosity a little,” Terra Vanitas' voice grumbled from the doorway. The dark haired demon, however, remained in a crouched position in the door of the room. His bright golden-yellow eyes were vaguely scanning the room while his hands rested between his knees, but he didn't really seem to show much of an interest in what was in the room.

Rachel jumped slightly as she heard the voice from the doorway, shifting her gaze over to meet the male. She sat up, and examined him curiously, debating on wether or not to trust him. "Hmm.. Alright. I won't tell." She murmured, brushing her dark brown hair from her eyes. "Come, sit." Patting the area beside her on the bed, Rachel shifted to a Criss-cross applesauce position. Her golden gaze moved once more to her sketch pad, as she turned to a new page and laid the pencil down so the male could use it. "So what were they, anyway?" She questioned, folding her hands in her lap as she waited for a reply.

Terra Vanitas xXxPadding a bit closer only to drop down into a seated position in front of the female, Terra picked up the pencil and sketchpad. “It depends on which language you wish to use for the name of said species of which you speak. Those of you who speak English in the human terms would call it some kind of mutated hybrid of a werewolf, hellhound and dragon. At least that's the rough translation of it. To the demon race, however, we call it Lydæanti,” he answered in that gruff grumble as he scribbled down his version of the creature just out of Rachel's sight. Pausing in mid-stroke, he glanced up at the auburn haired female then shifted his gaze around the room a bit. “Do you intend to cover your room with such colorful pictures?” he asked curiously before returning to scrawling the pencil across the paper.

 Rachel relaxed a little as Terra Vanitas began to draw the creature, and her gaze shifted around the room as well as he questioned it. "I try to bring some color into my life, yes." she replied smoothly, sliding off her bed to pick up one of her abstract pieces that seem to depict flowers and was indeed very colorful. "Do you not like my color?" she asked, her eyes examining the painting instead of him now.

Terra Vanitas xXxResponding with a slight shrug, he continued scribbling down his sketch of the creatures. “It's alright. Len and Laren think all I like is dark things and violence, but then again, I don't really like talking to them all that much so they don't really know me all that well,” he rumbled only to start sliding his finger against the pencil marks against the paper so as to use it as shading. He then returned to fixing the lines he'd smudged. “If you want, you can draw me or paint me some pictures to put up in my rooms. It'd be a change of pace for once... Just a thought...” He then started up in a soft hum while starting to smudge and fix lines again.xxx"It's caving in around me, what I thought was solid ground. I tried to look the other way, but I couldn't turn around. It's okay for you to hate me for all the things I've done. I've made a few mistakes, but I'm not the only one. Step away from the ledge, I'm coming down. I could never be what you want me to. You pull me under to save yourself. You will never see what's inside of me. I pull you under just to save myself. Was there ever any question on how much I could take? You kept feeding me your bullshxt, hoping I would break. Is there anybody out there? Is there anyone who cares? Is there anybody listening? Will they hear my final prayers?~" he hummed softly only to cease drawing and setting the pencil down to the side. Turning the picture around to show a well drawn yet absolutely freakish pencil drawing of the creature, he flashed a brief vicious smile. "Tadah. Your monster."
