Hehe come on, it would be just like Drako to pull this, and I thought you said something about a great Mage or somthing, oh well, since the place is screwy in magic it could have ended up anywhere, thus, it still had a chance of being just right there mrgreen

Intimate. Intimate. Oh. She probably should have said no, but Eliza doubted she would have anyway. Free-dom of speech right? Plus she happy to see him. Hearing his confession, her thoughts dropped for a moment - knowing that even in his honesty, no matter the oddity, she simply couldn't believe that people could fall in love so quickly. Laughing slightly, not in a mean way, Eliza reached out tapping Vincent's nose, " Slow down stranger, You've only known me for a week." She stated with a slight smile, " If I didn't know any better, I'll call you naive. Vincent you need to see this through my eyes, the knowlodge to love someone doesn't come so quick, So it's hard for me to even see how." Though there was no denying that she was happy to see him. And though it was only a week, as she said teasingly earlier, there was also no denying that she actually missed him. In which, that itself. . was a little odd for her. She only met him for one day, and know him for a week. But, He was a. .. friend? And missing someone with a brighten exterior like that was no surprise, right?

Scarlet couldn't help but to feel bad that she didn't trust Drako,if it really was him.IT was just like Nocturne to play her for her love.Scarlet sighed and rubbed her eyes and sat down on the throne and threw her feet up in a I don't care way.She was soon fast asleep. Flashback to one week ago "Scarlet? I'm back! I toled you that they couldn't kill me!" Drako was standing in the doorway to the throne room as Scarlet was browsing through one of her father's old spell books.She looked up and gasped,the book hit the floor with a thud as she ran to hug Drako vigerusly. "I though you really were dead.I even gave up wearing my cloak when you died." "I know Scarlet!I know! Even death couldn't keep me away from you.You know that!" Scarlet was begining to get suspicious though when she realized that she couldn't see his eyes at all. "Drako why don't you take tha mask off so I can see your face again after so long?" Drako sheepishly rubbed the back of his neck."Well there was a problem comping back to the living plane.It fused the mask to my face.I can't get it off." At that point Scarlet hugged him again and without a moments notice she ripped the mask off to reveal a shade of Drako.It hissed in anger and tryed to choke Scarlet but Scotts had come to the rescue and pulled the shade off of Scarlet who was gasping for air.Her eyes were beginign to tear up as she realized that Drako was truly dead and would not be coming back. Present time "I'm so sorry Drako!So sorry!Scarlet grabbed her sythe and brought it down on top of a scared Drako who was crying.There was blood eveywhere!DRAKO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Scarlet woke in a start and fell of the throne in heap!She was in a cold sweat."Only a dream!It was only a dream,just a dream!"Scarlet kept trying to tell herself and calming down. Scarlet rubbed her temples as she sat on the ground.She had a splitting migrane and these dreams wern't helping either.

I let my arms fall to my side. "I know, but Eliza, I have the feeling, maybe not the knowledge, but the feeling, would you mind agreeing that the feeling is there, or are you going to down me all the time?" I look away, then spot Drako. "Who, Drako!" I smile, then let it fade. A shade? I pull Sinbane, and then I put it to the "Drako's" neck. "Shade, get now! I will kill you now!" I pull the mask off within a millisecond, and it was Drako's face, but, he was dead! The next generation of Shade? I pull the blue stone he had given me so long ago, the one that took you to the Airship. "If you have this, then, well, it must be you, or if you have his ring and his other treasures, like, his two twin swords of fire and ice." I let Sinbane rest near his throat. "Perhaps if I could sense you, perhaps..." I think on it. No Shade could even begin to do portals out here. "Hello Drako." I retreat Sinbane, and look back at Eliza. "I am busy, um, no offense, but Eliza her is outranking you right now." I look her in the eyes. "Please, at least tell me you are somewhat, I don't know, have feelings for me?" I shake my head, if she didn't, then I would have to try again later, which I did NOT want to do. "Oh! And Drako, give this to Scarlet, the only reason you would be here, is because of Scarlet not believing you." I throw him a piece of white alloy, what Sinbane is made of. I had been practice Metallurgy and Smithing, and come up with that. Hard hard stuff, making pure Holy Alloy, Angel Wing as it is called. "Oh, and you are number three on ,y list, it goes Eliza, the war, then you, now, if you were in mortal danger, you would be number two, but as standings go, you are tied with Scarlet." I say, not taking my red eyes from Eliza.

I bowed to him, even though he wasn't looking, "Vincent...your a life saver! I wish the two of you the best of luck, may your blades find the hearts of your enemies." It was an ancient SwiftBlade good-bye, a bit unnerving considering they had so many enemies, and their blades usualy did reach their enemies heart. I tried to open another portal, only for it to open a hundred feet away, I sighed and floated over on invisible steps. I looked down at the metal, I could work with this later... I stepped through the portal, which atleast led to the proper destination, if ten feet off. Right outside the underworld throne room, if Scarlet didn't beleive me it would be best if she didn't think I was coming to assassinate her either. I knocked on the large grey doors and took a deep breathe, I hoped like hell this would work!

Honesty? Something that she truely valued, and knew that Vincent would as well. Her mind was thrumming with her thoughts, only for her attention to quickly snap away from her thoughts and onto Drako as she heard Vincent say his name. Her eyes slightly widen at the sight of the Lord of Chaos, before her previous thoughts came to mind. As Vincent automatically went to the defensive, even so much as pointing his sword so closely to his neck, calling him Shade, Eliza couldn't help but whisper a, " I thought so." Outloud. Did she thought it was a trap? It could possible be, but there was a reason why God didn't find the need to warn her about anything of a hint of an early demise of the Lord of Chaos.
" Drako!" The Angel esclaimed, flashing him a bright smile, satisfied with the procedure of him being declared not a fake. She trusted Vincent, and she also trusted her reasoning, and King. However as the Angel was about to wave at what others thought of the deceased lord, Vincent managed to take her attention away from the Lord of Chaos.
Hearing his question again, Eliza reached up tucking a strand of her blonde hair behind her ear. The flight here managed to make her blonde hair a little array, that and her hair was already set into a quick and loose braid before she decided to find Vincent.
" Honestly," Eliza started off, her voice alot quieter from what it was moments ago, " I admit that, well it's a little odd, but theres something about you that seems. . . " Her sentence trailed, as she moved her hand slightly as if trying to find the words, "There is something, there." She finally admitted, Amethyst eyes flickering with slight puzzlement, but honestly, " But it's slight, and I'm not quite sure, I mean the feeling but-" Effective, the Halfling closed her mouth now frustrated with herself.
She probably wasn't making much sense to him now.
" Oh forget it," The blonde huffed, averting her gaze to the ground, now feeling stupid and a bit embarassed. However despite her embarassment his list worried her in a way. If the war came second, that might possibly mean he'll be distracted about her during a possible battle.

"You are the only thing above this war, you did notice that, right? That is only because..." I trail off. I let my eyes drift into the sky. "I guess..." I couldn't say anything. "I-" I look around. "I know that you obviously believe you can't find love with first sight, but under circumstances, I would say that is not true. Drako and Scarlet are living proof! My father and Helena are also proof, granted dead, but still proof." I hold her hands in mine, softly thrumming my fingers against hers. "Eliza, tell me one thing. If I were about to die, would you try your hardest to help me, and if I did die, would you mourn my passing?" I think on it. "Would you never forget me?"

" Vincent," Eliza was about to interupt, but decided to keep her mouth shut as questioned her about this. Letting him take ahold of her hands, Eliza frowned, because knowing that he didnt she'll probably smack hims arm slightly at even his thought of him questioning her if she'll try her hardest to help him, " Vincent Wolfgang, Don't be ridiculous!" She scolded slightly, absentmindly taking a step closer, " Of course I would try my hardest to save you, and if you did indeed die, I most certainly will not be dancing away, easily forgetting you. To be honest, I don't think I could forget you."

I look at her, my eyes flashing dangerously. "Eliza, I have no doubt, but, why, oh why, are you being so stubborn?! Are you seriously hiding something, out with it! I see it in your eyes. You feel something between us, but it won't go well, because you are hiding something! And why are you so, adamant about not even answering me?!" I pull away. I look down, then back up. "I have no idea why I am so, in love, I have no idea why, but bear with me, please?" I turn, and then I cry, away from her eyes. I wipe a tear, and turn back. I look her up and down. "I only know that, you are, the one, the one I would want to be close to now. Don't even ask why, please." I turn again, and this time, keep my back turned.

" Fine," The angel said softly, after Vincent's antics, and him asking her to please not question why. His questions in general. " I won't ask, Vincent. Am I hiding things? Not purposly. There are things to myself, my background, that you do not know yet. I admit it, I do feeling something between us but I'm being stubborn about this because I'm a coward, and I don't want things to fall down on me again. I don't want things to become over-complicated, and I don't want to see you get hurt because of my own antics. As if I'm using you, I learned over the years that love can be a weakness, and I rather not have you become a tool for my enemies."
Shaking her head suddenly, Eliza took a step back the hairtye holding her hair finally falling loose, " I know I sound stupid, considering how strong you are, but it's just things I've been taught over the years."

I'm very sick so I won't be on the rest of the night!
Drako found Scarlet on the floor of the throne room still hyperventating from her bad dream.She wasn't even aware that anyone had entered either. "Blood........eveywhere!Can't........stop.............madness.........anger..........drako........sorry,so so sorry." Scarlet kept rocking on the ground her eyes were a dull black and red.

I dropped the alloy, my breathing stopped. No! I turned around and yelled out in my mind to Vincent, "Vincent! Something is wrong with Scarlet! She snapped!" I ran over to her and held her tight murmmering in her ear. "It's ok Scarlet...its ok, I forgive you..there is no need to feel that way. I will clean up the blood, it's all ok, I forgive you... you know I could never be angry with you! I love you with all of my heart..its ok Scarlet." She stopped rocking and wept into my jacket. I layed my head on her's and hummed a lullaby until she fell asleep. I picked her up in my arms and teleported her to her rooms on the airship. I sat down in the chair next to her, I was not going to leave until she was better.

As Scarlet was sleeping,the book that she had been reading fell off the bed in a loud thud.It fell open to the page that Scarlet had been reding up on. "Nightmares and congering them" Scarlet had been looking into this as she had been receaving a lot of them latly and she thought that someone might have that power.Her greateset fear was that if her father had them,he could do so much damage.Even to the point that someone could potentually commit suiside due to him.But if it was Drako who had them,well...........even if he died that didn't mean that his powers had gone.They could affect anyone close.Even in the afterlife.If it was Drako...........well...............he could potentually be the one cause her problems.Even if he didn't know it at all. Scarlet groaned in pain and began to come to but she yelped as she became transparent and slid into the bed.She caught herself and stood up.She looked at Drako who's eyes were wide in shock as he looked at the black book. "What?So I was just lookuing at some of the books that my father had collected.Techicly they are mine since I inharited it."

I raised a suspecious eyebrow, "Are you trying to tell me something?" Only slightly mocking, it realy was! I sat down my own book, Explosions and How to Use Them I sighed and stood up, "So, still think I'm a shade?" My mask was on the table, I even had my scars showing with my shirt unlaced, the most notable being the one across my eye and the other slanting all the way across my chest. Some of the scars only Scarlet knew I had, hopefully that helped her come around.

Scarlet wirly smiled at him."I'm debateing on that one Drako!But yes!I think that Nocturne is using me as his little lab rat for his nightmares.That is why I'm reading up on it in all the books that my father has had in his library."Scarlet stood up and walked next to Drako to see what he was reading up on
