Kaosti frowned... he didn't like hurting her, but she needed blood, "I know... It's a tough change, but It's not so bad." He removed his fist and opened it letting his skin repair itself, "Now, can we be civil? You the blood no matter how bad it may taste right now." Kaosti re-slit his wrist and offered it out to her.

she hesitantly opened her mouth and accepted it. when she was done she stared at the ceiling and sniffled all while tears dripped down her face.

Kaosti removed a soft silk handkerchief from his back pocket and wiped her tears away, then removed a few of the binding straps, "There, Now was that so bad?" he saw where her skin was nearly rubbed raw from the straps and cringed, "Will you allow me to remove your.... clothing... in order to redress you? or can you handle it while i get you something a little more.... concealing?"

"no! NO!" she screamed and shook her head. she turned her self away from Kaosti
Cortez busted down the door, "you shouldnt touch her, she freaks out whenever you do." Cortez began to put the straps back on, she looked like she was about to throw a fit, but Cortez hushed in her ear, it seamed to soothe her and she rested. "i dont trust her with out her straps on. and i have already tried to get her out of these ridiculous clothes, but she refuses."

Kaosti growled and smacked his hand away, "Fine. I'll leave her in what she's wearing, but her worn skin needs healing. Plus, All the poor thing needed was some blood."
~~~~~
A blinding flash of light struck just outside of the VonMire manor and six weary figures appeared and shuffled forward.
Akuma held her head and after she got her bearings she walked over to Asmodeus and took Lucid, "Thank you for carrying him."
Once Lucid was secure on her shoulder she looked up at the looming structure and sighed, "Well..... Welcome to the Von Mire estate... It's not much, but it's home to the Von Mire bloodline... And technically my last name is VonMire..." she hunched slightly, feeling the pain in her chest just from remembering what Lucid was saying, 'Until death does us part.....' Akuma looked over her shoulder at the bloody blond sleeping boy on her shoulder and smirked, "You're lucky you got out while you did or death might have done us part...." she mumbled as she shuffled up to the steps and swung the heavy door knocker.
~~~~~~~
Kaosti jolted to his feet, "Mom and Dad are here... As well As multiple strong people... I can't tell how many." He brushed through the girls hair and smiled, "I'll be back to heal you in a moment." Looking to Cortez he nodded and pushed him out of the room, "Well, We have company... You get the door and I'll start the tea..."

Cortez came to the door not realy knowing what to expect, he pulled the heavy door open with ease, he smiled at Akuma, "good evening sweet heart, let me take that off your hands," referring to lucid "ill place him in a room." he held Lucid in his arms and looked to the rest of the party, "You are all welcome to come inside, Kaosti is waiting for you in the dining hall, its down the hallway to the left." he instructed them and he turned back and took Lucid upstairs to a bedroom.

Akuma waved the group along as she shuffled down the hall after removing her tattered sandals. She came to some heavy red wood doors and pushed them open. the first thing she saw was the light in the room, then a mess of brownish black hair in her face.
Tears began to stream from her eyes as she wrapped her trembling arms around her beloved Kaosti. "Thank the stars you're safe... I was so worried... You didn't see any hooded figures with silver writing on the hood, did you?"
Kaosti smiled and shook his head, "No, Just got done fighting a war, saving a princess, and finding my family. One of those average days, y'know."
Akuma kissed his cheek, his forehead and his other cheek, then hugged him one last time, "So, What did you make me..."
"Well," Kaosti began as he turned to the long dining table, "Bloodwine, Tea, and some appetizers is all I could prepare in such a small amount of time, but I have a larger meal being prepared right now if you're all hungry..." he added, referring to the group of people behind his mother.
He turned back to his mother and kissed her cheek, "I'm gonna go check on dad... Make yourself at home..."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Upstairs Kaosti entered a dark room where his father lay unconscious. He took one of his father's hands and closed his eyes, to begin searching for ailments in the body to heal.

Lucid grasped his sons hand, "the only wound you will find on me is the one on my heart," lucid sat up and gave his son a sad look. "i have been an awful father to you, you were alone, im sorry. i asked Cortez to look for you, but i should have looked for you myself."
~~~~~~~~~~
Cortez met with the other in the dining hall, and was surprised to see food, "where does he get that? i have never known someone to make food so quickly." he sat across Akuma, and reached out to hold her hand "I and very happy to see that you are safe, these doors will always be open to you and your friends." he smiled at her warmly

Akuma met his eyes, broke into tears, and looked away, "Don't be so sure of that... This may be the last time you see me... Unless it has something to do with Kaosti." She took a deep breath and closed her eyes, 'I regret nothing... I refuse to turn back... I must move forward, no matter how painful it is.' the thought echoed through her mind as her own little pep talk.
To change the subject and keep her from crying more she looked at the food, "He learned it from my father Kaos. Right now you could walk into the kitchen and see there is a meal being prepared by no one... Ghost hands... actually. It just look like no one is doing it." she used her napkin to wipe her face.
~~~~~~~~~~~
Kaosti was relieved to hear that his father was unscathed, but hurt to hear he was in a pain that he could not heal, "You haven't been a bad father. It's not like I came with an instruction manual." he kissed his father's forehead and remained close to him, "What's on your mind..." he asked as he stroked through his father's blood-stained blond hair.

Cortez was unsure of what to talk about, she looked unstable, he nodded to her silently "if you will excuse me for a moment, i have a guest i need to check on." Cortez left the dining hall to check on is bound guest. she was awake again but calm and did not move much when he approached her. "feeling better i see, will you let me wrap your wounds?" he went about her slowly showing that he had no intention to harm her. the blood had already begun to work, her wounds had already begun healing, and she seamed at ease.
~~~~~
Lucids eyes filled with tears and he reached out and hugged Kaosti, he cried on his shoulder for a few moments. "I dont want you to abandon me too."

"Abandon you!" Kaosti growled as he held his father, "Why would I ever do that?!" Kaosti held tight to his father and did his best not to start crying, "You're my dad... And I'll always be here with you... Why would I abandon you? Who abandoned you?" he asked rather confused like as he stroked his father's back comfortingly.

Kaosti paled remembering all the times Akuma had yelled at him for trying to get into the bathroom to see why she was crying. He recalled the time he had tested what Kaos had taught him and peered into his mother's dream to see his father on a large pile of fruit, enjoying himself, and being happy, and his mother trapped in a large thorny bush.
"No." he grumbled as he stood up and began pacing, "No. No. No.... No." thoughts raced through his head as he rubbed his face, "It's all my fault... Damn it!" He dropped to his knees feeling his legs quiver beneath him. "I'm so.... So sorry...." he cried as he sobbed in his hands, "I'm so sorry dad..."
