Bathory smiles at him, her love for him very apparent at this moment as she nods. "I will take extra precautions in my travels back and forth. Please, be safe as well, I just found you, I don't want to lose you so quickly."
She glances away, a slight flush staining her cheeks pink, "I worry about you, about your mother...about what they do to you there. I want...I am going to speak to VooDoo. Much time has passed since I first met him, I want to gauge his reactions towards your mother, and towards you. I want to see if he can accept me, as well."

Minkishi frowned and nodded. "Fine... But be settle about it when you talk to that man. We don't need him to be suspicious." He took her hand and gently stroked it. "I'm so glad I found you someone who cares as much as you do."

Bathory nods as well, "I will. But I have to try to resolve this peacefully, without it turning towards violence." She smiles at him, "And I'm glad to have found you as well. Someone to love me as I am, and right in front of me the whole time."

"If we could avoid violence, I would surely be happy. Yet, those kind of things don't often happen..." He sighed and stared at their hands. She placed a hand on the back of her head and stroked it.
He looked at the sky and shook his head. "It's late. I need to go. Mother will worry." He leaned forward and placed a gently kiss on her forehead. "Until tomorrow... please be safe."

"As would I, we will see what happens, yes? Perhaps luck will favor us in this." She leans into his hand, reveling in something so simple as a touch from him.
Her own eyes are drawn skyward, then back to his with a nod. She smiles softly at the kiss, placing one of her own on his cheek, "You as well...I will see you here tomorrow."
She lets her hand linger in his for a few more moments, giving him a last, affectionate look then pulling away and heading towards home.

The next day, Minkishi arrived earlier than normal. He stormed through the kelp forest. He thrashed his tail as he pushed through the thick weeds. He uprooted many and they tangled around his fin. He crashed into the clearing with an anger huff. He peeled the kelp off his body and glared at the ground. Something had obviously happened to cause him to be angry.

Bathory comes upon her love in time to see him crash through the forest and into the clearing. Worry creasing her brow, she rushes over and lays a gentle hand on his arm, "What is the matter, Minkishi? What has happened? You haven't been this angry since the first time I met you...please, what can I do to help?"

Minkishi made a motion to smack Bathory's hand away, but froze and stared at her face. He gripped his fists and let out a heavy sigh. He slowly relaxed his tense body. "I'm sorry..." He muttered and took her hand. His anger got the best of him and he almost took it out on her.
He ran his fingers through his hair. "It's my mother." He finally announced. "And that b*****d, VooDoo. He swung a fist into the empty space next to him. "She says he's found a spell, to help gain her sight. It's all she can talk about. Her hopes are so high. And I can't stop her."
"I feel like it's a trap. He's tricking her, I know it. He's going to use her for some twisted experiment and crush her hopes. I can't let him do that."

Bathory flinches back at his initial move, looking at him wide-eyed and puzzled. She closes both of her hands around his, bringing it up to her lips and pressing a soft kiss to his fingers as she listens.
"It is possible that he's found something to help her, Minkishi. If anyone could have found a spell to restore sight, it would be VooDoo." She reaches out with one hand, taking hold of his other and looking at him. "I still need to speak with him. I will ask him about the spell, ask if he really has found something to help your mother."
Her strange blue eyes search his, "Let me speak with him before you act, please Minkishi. He's too powerful for either of us to take on alone and I won't lose you."

Minkishi slowly wrapped his arms around her. He hid his face in her hair. He took a deep shaky breath. "I'm just... worried. I don't want to lose her to an experiment I don't want her hopes to be crushed either. He can destroy her and I have to stop him if he does." He stroked her hair and slowly looked down at her. "But if you truly want to speak with him, I'll let you. If it you confirm his scheme though, I can't guarantee my actions." He frowned.

Bathory holds tight to him, nuzzling into the thick fall of soft hair near his neck. "You won't lose your mother, love, I promise. If what he's doing is wrong, I'll stand with you. I won't leave you to stand alone, Minkishi." She looks back up at him, cupping his face in her hands, her blue eyes. "I have to do this. I have to try, at least once, to get him to accept us. To find out if he means to truly help your mother."

His hand slowly stroked her cheek as he stared into her eyes. "Thank you..." He whispered, placing a gentle kiss to her forehead. "I feel bad for throwing you to the hounds. What if he gets angry and attacks you when you go to speak with him? Perhaps I should go with you...." He looked at her with her worried, creamy eyes.

Bathory gives him a tender smile, leaning into his touch. "You're not throwing me to the hounds, I'm doing this of my own free will." She pauses, looking at him for a long moment before responding, her voice quiet. "I...I'm torn. I want you there, you give me strength, make me feel safer...but I don't want him to hurt you. If he hurts me, even if he kills me, you can still get your mother out and away. But if you die I don't know if she'll let me take her away." She looks down then draws in a breath and looks back to him, "I love you Minkishi, with all my heart. I want to spend my life with you, bear your children...but we can't have that life with threat of my uncle over our heads."

Minkishi listened to her concerns silently. A tiny pink rose to his pale skin as she told him about what she wanted. 'Children?!' his mind screamed in surprise. He looked down at her and gave her a quick, gentle kiss. "L...let's not have our time together be filled with worry and fears..." He gave her a tiny smile and placed his hands on her shoulders. "Come on. Let's keep practicing. I'm sure there is still a lot for me to learn."

Bathory returns the kiss softly and chuckles lightly, resting her right hand over his left, "Minkishi, I don't mean right now...just, someday. When we're both ready for it." She nods her head once and turns to the side, businesslike once more. "You have an aptitude for fire, we've seen that, and your protective spells are getting much better. Shall we try something new? I was thinking perhaps, telekinesis. Being able to move things with your mind will come in quite handy. And the focusing exercises for the bubbles help as well. Only this time, you focus on the power in your mind, focus it into a small...hmmm, hand of sorts. It doesn't actually have to look like a hand, so long as it can wrap around things. A tendril or tentacle does just as well." She pauses to give him a slight smile, "Think of it as something only you can see. And will the tendril to whatever you want it to pick up."
She turns to face him a gain and arches both brows, "Do you think you'd like to learn that?"
