As they top the first slight of stairs, Natalie leads her down the hall to the left. Stoping at room 5 she claps her hands together and grins.
"HERE WE ARE!~"
She bounces on the spot waiting for Fae to unlock the door, before showing her in.

The girl amused her, there was no doubt, Fae thought as she moved to unlock the door. Hopefully, Sierra wouldn't take too long to get back, Fae could only spare a day or two before she had to get back for the final things for the wedding.

Fae looked the furnishings over, they were nice enough. But the normally red haired woman wasn't much in the mood to pay attention to nice things at the moment. She looked over at Natalie and smiled, "Thank you, my dear...if you don't mind, I'm going to freshen up." Gently closing the door in the girl's face, not to be rude, but to get herself under control.
"This is ridiculous..." She went to the shower, and stripped down, letting the steaming hot water stream down her hair and body. She then sat on the floor underneath the stream, and began running her fingers through her shortened hair, almost rthymatically before wrapping her arms around her knees, which she had pulled up to her chest, rocking back and forth like a child with autism.
"Sweet Spirits, what's wrong with me?"

Jerico walked along the soft dirt path leading to the ancient building. He smiled and took a seat under a cherry tree, its pink pettels all around the base. He sat there and a squirrel came down from the tree to sit on his shoulder.
"This is the peace that I have been searching for."

((Yes I am an idiot who got her character stuck in SA because she got swept away by Uni work, and then plain old boring work and then the new year and then her birthday sweatdrop ))
Juuni didn't seem to be listening to much of what Kimiho was saying to her. She did not even seem all that aware of the hustle and bustle of just what was going on around her. Her normally vibrant blue eyes seemed somewhat clouded and her ears were flickering in an odd sort of fashion, her tail stiff and rigid.
She is here... Find her...
Juuni obeyed the command from the Senshi that only she heard and with what can only be described as cat like agility she twisted and leapt away from her friend and bolted out the door, back into the DSB grounds.

A small shadow creeped unnaturally underneath the gates that barred entrance to the Dark Sakura Estates. It moved and glided over the ground in a slightly eratic manner, almost like a person stumbling through lack of energy. Eventually it stopped moving and a person came bubbling out of the shadows. It had no real form at first but as the last of the shadow it had sprang from disappeared it spread over her body like a thin veil and created her features.
A small red head was sat by one of the many ponds. She looked quite sickly, her complexion paler than what it would be normally and her eyes hazed. There was a cold sweat upon her brow and she looked about herself in a confused manner, unsure of what exactly had drawn her to come to such a place.
No more time was left for thinking as her vision clouded over for what was now the fifth time today and she let loose a growl of annoyance before she slumped to the floor.

He didn't know what had made him come here. He'd simply walked, picking a direction, until he'd come upon...this place.
Night covered them as they moved towards the compound. He looked a sight - weary and soaked in blood, most of it not his, he cradled two babies to his chest like they were prized jewels, the children finally asleep after hours of crying.
The noise of the gunshots, the explosions, the smell of blood and the sight of their parents hurt and tired had taken their toll on little Adamus and Amelia Tomorrow. Even now, curled into little balls in their fathers' arms, their dog-like tails twitched in their unfitful sleep, slight sparks eminating from their bodies as they dreamed...
...But the steady, relentless beating of the heart in the massive chest they huddled close to was soothing, the warmth eminating from him keeping the cold at bay.
He stole a look behind him for what felt like the hundredth time. Amber was close beside him, staying close. She clutched her right arm and walked like a zombie, the blood still dripping from her bullet wound.
John wasn't any better. His back and chest were riddled with bruises and bulletholes, some bullets even still poking out from the skin. He had the ability to feel no pain - but he usually found medical attention soon after fighting like he did. But he hadn't stopped walking in almost five hours...before coming here.
He'd received the guild invite years ago, from a person he'd had never met before, for no reason whatsoever. But the people who were after them blended with the cities where normal refuge would be found...sometimes you needed to find someplace out of the ordinary.
Walking up to the iron gate, John eased it open with his shoulder, allowing Amber in first before following her. He looked about himself and felt at ease already - there seemed to be barely anything modern about this place, the antiqity almost nostalgic to him.
They began to move towards the main building, John alighting the balcony of the padgoda before walking into the main foyer, Amber following behind him.
"Hello?" John called, looking about himself tiredly. "We need some help..."

Only a few hours after Ketto had made his arrival at the Guild Gates, with his fluffy cloud companion Flik, another pair straggled up to the Dark Sakura, looking worse for wear and cradling two infants as they left a blood trail in their wake.
The scouts that kept a diligent watch on the Guild and surrounding area at all times, had had noted their presence as soon as they'd turned up the dirt road that led to the massive estate. Communicating with their headquarters and sending observations of the unknown man and woman's wounds.
As John reached the gates and called out, Four individuals seemed to melt forth from the scenery. One of the many skills recruits were taught: The art of camoflauge and concealment.
Two of the figures were human looking enough. Men, in their early 20's by appearances... But appearances could be deceiving. They wore the livery of the residential Guild Guard. The the other two figures were dressed a little more elaborately. Their uniforms were that of GUARDIAN. An elite special task force that was the crown jewel of the DSBG security. One was a woman who looked 24, wearing the white robes of the First GUARDIAN squad. A Healer. The other was a man who looked about 32. His uniform was identical to the healer's 'cept it was Black in colour. 1st squad was the only uniform that was not black, so thay could easily be identified in times of crisis as Medical and Supply aide.
The two GG officers opened the iron gates and stood slightly to the side, alert and ready to react if need be.
The older man, left the Healer's side and took a bold step forward. He spoke in a warm, earthy tone that was non threatening yet extremely authoritative and powerful all at once. Apparantly he held highest rank amongst the 4 present.
"Welcome to the Dark Sakura travelers. May her walls shelter you and provide you with sanctuary."
At that the healer strode forward and slipped an arm around the wounded Amber, taking her full weight onto herself easily. If the woman permit it, she would scoop her up into a fireman's carry, mindful of her wounded shoulder.
A fifth person strode forward now. A young woman who worked with the 'Feathers'. Also wearing white robes of the 1st squad. She bowed slightly to John and held her arms out for the twins as the man spoke.
"This is Trina. She's a specialist with the Feathers, they take care of all the members 12 years of age and younger.. but her specialty is infants. She will take your children to the nursery and guard them 'til you've both been treated."
He moved now to offer John a supporting arm as the Guild Guards closed the gates securely behind them.
"Come, we will take you to the infirmary and our healers will care for you both and there you can tell us what happened."

Amber slumped gratefully against the woman, taking full advantage of her support. She cast a look over her shoulder at John and the woman holding her arms out to her infants with a whimper of worry before a deep growl of pain forced it's way out of her throat and she collapsed, exhausted from the long walk to safety and all that had happened to her already. It was impressive that she had made it this far considering her heart condition but then that was what adrenaline could do.
Amelia and Adamus, who had been sleeping, began to stir and their tiny ears and tails twitched as they huddled a little closer to their dad, unsure of where they were of of this beautifully clothed lady in front of them.
Unusually it was Amelia who reached forwards first, snuffling at the woman heavily before reaching a small, podgy hand out to touch the woman, a spark of electricity jumping from her finger onto the ladies robes.
"Nyuah!"
Amelia clapped her hands happily and smiled for the first time that evening and apparently happy that his sister was happy Adamus leant forwards and sniffed loudly.

John had shied away from the woman at first, holding his offspring closer to him as he began to speak - "...I dont think..." - before Amelia sparked the woman.
He was happy that they were so young. Children only a few years older then them would have been mentally scarred by such a traumatic event - but the two were infants, not even able to speak yet. Terror was easily forgotten.
Reluctantly he gave them up to the woman, the healer grunting at the weight and buckling over slightly as he placed the children gently into her arms. They were a lot heavier then children their age and size. Probably due to the high density of John's skin...
John held his hand up to halt the man approaching him. "No, i dont need help..." He said, walking past the man to closley follow his lover. "...I'm in no pain."
He looked behind him to the high ranking officer. "...I dont know if we were being followed...but if you have the manpower, i'd suggest keeping their eyes open..."
He spoke quietly. He was a giant, this Tribal, but his voice had lost it's booming edge - he looked back to Amber with sad eyes, guilty eyes, and his face was downcast. He blamed himself for the unprovoked attack. Amber had no enemies...at least, any he knew.

Fuin Mir A small shadow creeped unnaturally underneath the gates that barred entrance to the Dark Sakura Estates. It moved and glided over the ground in a slightly eratic manner, almost like a person stumbling through lack of energy. Eventually it stopped moving and a person came bubbling out of the shadows. It had no real form at first but as the last of the shadow it had sprang from disappeared it spread over her body like a thin veil and created her features. A small red head was sat by one of the many ponds. She looked quite sickly, her complexion paler than what it would be normally and her eyes hazed. There was a cold sweat upon her brow and she looked about herself in a confused manner, unsure of what exactly had drawn her to come to such a place. No more time was left for thinking as her vision clouded over for what was now the fifth time today and she let loose a growl of annoyance before she slumped to the floor. The small neko-jin skidded through the main gardens, her tiny feet pattering over the cold ground as her breath rose like steam in front of her. She came to a stumbling halt as she raised her nose skywards and inhaled deeply, her eyes flickering a deep purple before she stood back up on her legs and her form began to glow. In a flurry of light and soft white feathers the transformation occured and in the neko-jin's place stood Juunikyuu, the Angel Senshi. The last of the feathers fell to the ground and disappeared like snow flakes as she took one bare foot step forwards towards the small red-headed girl who lay unconscious by the ponds. " Oh how the mighty have fallen... How did it come to this?" Though she spoke out loud Juunikyuu knew it was unlikely that Fuin would respond. She had no shadow, and without a shadow it was like the little girl had no heart, no soul. Although Juunikyuu had reason to hate this being she could not find it in herself for it was partly her fault that she had come to be this way. Fuin had been the manisfeatation of darkness within the Senshi after her two halves had been made whole again and it was the darkness that had made Fuin what she was now. If anything Fuin was like a daughter to the Senshi.

Amber Tomorrow Amber slumped gratefully against the woman, taking full advantage of her support. She cast a look over her shoulder at John and the woman holding her arms out to her infants with a whimper of worry before a deep growl of pain forced it's way out of her throat and she collapsed, exhausted from the long walk to safety and all that had happened to her already. It was impressive that she had made it this far considering her heart condition but then that was what adrenaline could do.
As Amber Collapsed, the woman used the momentum of her body to help scoop her up. Holding her securely in the fireman's carry, she had one arm around her back and shoulders and the other underneath her knees and thighs, holding her against her chest gently. "Shhhh-- Please relax m'lady. We won't let anything happen to them or to you. You're safe now."
She would whisper in soft soothing tones to the distressed woman.The Tomorrow Twins Amelia and Adamus, who had been sleeping, began to stir and their tiny ears and tails twitched as they huddled a little closer to their dad, unsure of where they were of of this beautifully clothed lady in front of them. Unusually it was Amelia who reached forwards first, snuffling at the woman heavily before reaching a small, podgy hand out to touch the woman, a spark of electricity jumping from her finger onto the ladies robes. " Nyuah!" Amelia clapped her hands happily and smiled for the first time that evening and apparently happy that his sister was happy Adamus leant forwards and sniffed loudly. John Tomorrow John had shied away from the woman at first, holding his offspring closer to him as he began to speak - "...I dont think..." - before Amelia sparked the woman. He was happy that they were so young. Children only a few years older then them would have been mentally scarred by such a traumatic event - but the two were infants, not even able to speak yet. Terror was easily forgotten. Reluctantly he gave them up to the woman, the healer grunting at the weight and buckling over slightly as he placed the children gently into her arms. They were a lot heavier then children their age and size. Probably due to the high density of John's skin...
"Take them to the nursery Trina, we'll let you know when you can transfer them to their parents room once they've been treated and have had some rest."An order from the woman who held Amber as if she were as light as the twins. Trina bowed her head in acknowledgment of her order and then gently whisked the twins off to the Feather's Nursery. "Once we've taken care of you both, Trina will bring the twins to you and we'll set up a crib in your room." She spoke this mostly to Amber to help soothe her anxiousness, but to the giant tribal as well.John John held his hand up to halt the man approaching him. "No, i dont need help..." He said, walking past the man to closley follow his lover. "...I'm in no pain."
Carrying on like this is worsening your condition, even if you are unaware of just how gravely. Now please... You will be treated and healed, but you must cooperate. No more unnecessary strain. You're here, you're safe.. you can let go now and we'll have you and your wife seen to immediately."It was obvious by the man's stubborn rebuttle that he'd dealt with many a mule-headed patient before. Even if this one was a giant, he was still a patient in their care and he'd have none of this macho last man standing attitude.
The woman holding amber smiled softly and added to what her comrade had to say...
"Let us worry about the rest for now and just concentrate on getting better. You're no good to your wife and your children dead..."John He looked behind him to the high ranking officer. "...I dont know if we were being followed...but if you have the manpower, i'd suggest keeping their eyes open..."
"Don't worry... Nothing can approach the Dark Sakura unnoticed. The very land acts as our eyes and ears. If you were followed, we will know about as soon as they enter our boundaries."

"...Very well." John said, letting out a long breath...
...Before relaxing.
Every wound in his massive body was suddenly realised to him as he let himself go and slumped forward, the man in charge having to catch him before he fell over. Bullets popped out of his skin as he fell against the man, the blood-flow almost doubling out of his wounds.
The pain had caused him to pass out, now asleep to the world, in this foriegn but strangely safe place...

((Typical Tomm xp
Ima posting as two people in one 3nodding Just to speed things up a bit and make them easier for me sweatdrop ))
Fuin's brow twitched into a frown as the Senshi approached, not through any malice or hatred per say but through confusion. Her mind was a blur as she forced her eyes open and the Senshi melted into view. Fuin hissed audiably at the Angel and struggled to sit up.
"What do you want?"
The small girl snapped up at the Senshi with a voice that did not seem to be her own.
"Since when is it a crime to offer help to those who need it Fuin-chan?" the Senshi replied calmly.
Fuin scoffed loudly before growling at the thudding pain in her head, "I don't need help, and certainly if I did I would not need it from you!"
Juunikyuu looked a little hurt at this comment but as Fuin gave another growl and her arm buckled underneath her the Senshi swooped down to support her. Her eyes widened in shock as she felt how frail the Shadow Senshi had become and her eyes shimmered a brilliant purple.
"You... You've lost your essence... Your being... How can you still be..."
"Alive? Don't ask me, you're the one who created me."
Juunikyuu felt a huge pang of guilt as she stood, cradling the tiny form of Fuin in her arms. The shadow child did not resist and indeed found herself gratefully leaning into Juunikyuu's chest, something about the Senshi made her feel at ease, like she was home. Then Juunikyuu said something that shocked even the cold hearted Fuin.
"You can have mine."
Fuin blinked, startled, "What?! You can't do that! You know what it means!"
"Would you rather I left you how you were? I cannot do that in good conscience and you know it!"
Fuin bowed her head but said nothing.
Juunikyuu nodded and supporting the child in one arm she held her other out, palm facing the sky and began to chant a simple incantation. Her own shadow, which had been cast across the floor seemed to spring to life and in a swirl of deepest black it was summoned up into her hand. The shadows swirled into a tight ball growing increasingly tighter and tighter before they made a ball about the size of a ping pong ball. Juunikyuu's hand twitched slightly as she sought to control the maic within it.
"Ready?" she questioned, a small sweat forming on her forehead.
Fuin looked at the swirling shadow and then at the Senshi and nodded slightly, almost appearing to brace herself.
"Binding of Shadow!" Juunikyuu cried as she rose her hand and made a gesture to slam it into Fuin's chest. Her hand stopped about a half inch from making contact but the shadow ball seemed to enter and be absorbed into Fuin's body as she gave a small cry of pain and her back arched before her resolve faltered and with Juunikyuu's arms wrapped protectively around her she fell into a deep and exhausted sleep.
Juunikyuu smiled and couldn't help but plant a soft kiss on the child's forehead before walking in the direction of her personal chamber.

It was midafternoon in the DSBG gardens, a young woman of about 20, had a pair of huge DJ-ish headphones hugging her head, music blaring from the speakers over her ears, a strong bass line pumping through her veins. Her raven hair was drawn back into a messy bun, streaked with gradient shades of crimson. Even the fringe of bangs that framed her pretty face were tipped incarnadine. Black chopsticks jutted out from the bun, an ornament dangling from the ends of each.
Reaching her arms up, her hands behind her head in a rolling movement as she sways to the rythm of the music, causing her short black leather jacket to flap open, giving glimpses of the bloodred corset she wore beneath. The jacket's length stopped just beneath her breasts, showing off her stomach as spiked heels striking against the semi-frozen earth. The black micro mini hugging her toosh and thighs, and knee high leather boots seemed to complete the outfit.
A band of leather, dyed red to accent the corset, encircled her throat. Net gloves and stockings tracing up her arms and legs. The stockings greeted by garters, holdin' em in place as she dances around, her eyes closed and body jiving.
She was in her own little world, she was.
