Susie felt Rai hug her, but took a few more quick steps backwards, getting away from his hug and hitting the wall with her back. She pulled her hands from her face and they slowly went to her side and rested there limply, shaking slightly. She didnt know how much more longer it would be until she just completely broke. Her sanity was hanging by a thread that was about to break.
Her eyes looked over and wandered over to Seth again. She longed for him again. She longed to be in his arms and to be kissed by him once more. But she didnt want to break another's heart. She didnt want to hurt Dante either. And no matter what she would hurt someone.
"I dont know what to do Rai.. I..." Her blue eyes that seemed faded looked over to Seth once more and they rested there for some time. Just staring. Then, just just stopped crying, and her breathing stopped for a moment as she just started to take slow steps forward and past Rai. Her eyes were set on Seth as she started to walk towards him out of an impulse. She couldnt stand it any longer. Her tials dragged behind her as she walked.

The shadows around the outside of the training area suddenly began to quiver like a fearful child as they pulled themself back, and the training room door opened slowly. No one was there. The shadows rode up the walls, covering the entire training hall as they suddenly came together at one point, bleeding away and back to their positions as Dante stood against the wall, behind susie. He watched her carefully from behind his glasses, his chest still hurt from his encounter last night as he simply watched her, waiting to see if she spoke to him.

Seth then brought his head back up as he heard footsteps coming toward his direction. It was Susie. He watched her walk slowly towards him, then stood up as if impulsivly as well. His eyes were fixated onto hers. The world seemed to be blocked out from his mind, he saw nothing but Susie. His heart began to race. Did she come bearing bad news, or did she come bearing the only three little words he wanted to hear from her at this moment? He froze as she walked toward him, his eyes never leaving hers.

"Hey everyone what the hell is going on?!" he shouted, as if the silence wasn't bad enough. Yusake had to come in and break it with obnoxious, loud roaring. The man in white only followed, sighing to himself as he entered the area with him. "How amazing it is that the first day here might be the last." he chuckled a little at this thought, shaking it out of his head. "Eh? Whoa! We don't need to be all mad, what did I do now? Uhm...hmmm..." he began to think, passing by Dante and *somehow* not seeing him. He brought his left arm out of his cloak and waved, trying best to make notice. "Hey, over here I...whoa..." he chuckled, getting another grin on his face as he just happened to see Susie. "Ahem, Yusake..." Yusake sighed, turning quickly. "What is it old man? I'm trying to get aqainted like you wanted me to. Don't tell me you don't want me to, make up your mind." he scowled in his direction, eyes narrowed slightly. But the other man was still smiling, shaking his head as he simply leaned against his straight cane. "Ah, no, nothing...I should let you be." Yusake laughed, turning. "Yeah! That's more like it damn it!"

Her eyes looked into his, a sad sort of stare that was filled with sorrow and despair. Susie was trying to think of what to say to Seth, but nothing came to mind. She didnt seem to notice Dante behind her because she was too busy in her own trian of thought. Finally, she made it over to Seth, only about a foot and a half away from him.
Susie's eyes slowly moved downward and she looked to the ground. She tried to search for the words again but nothing came out. She figured.. That she might as well say what was in her mind. And what has been everytime something like this happened.
"Seth..." She said slowly, her voice sort of choked up again. Her eyes searched the ground a little and then slowly trailed their way up to Seth's eyes again. Now they showed confussion and longing. "... I'm backed into a corner. And, i don't want to hurt anyone. I never did. I never meant to. Though..."
Her voice trailed off slowly, her eyes closing slowly and her head going down again. She started to choke up. She felt as if she couldnt speak anymore. The tears felt like they were about to fall yet again. Slowly she took a few steps backwards, shaking her head slowly. Then, her eyes reoppened as she stared at the floor once more. "I would say more.." She took in another deep breath. "But, i dont know the words to speak..."
Her ears twitched slightly suddenly as she heard a loud voice come from the insideo of the training hall. Her three black fox tails moved slightly behind her and she swallowed down hard. She tried to just concentrate on this.

Dante simply watched, he'd literally gone through hell to come back for Susie...and it was pointless. Susie had forgotten him, Dante came back from the dead for nothing...and now he was alone. He sighed, looking down and closing his eyes as he felt a strange presence, then looked up, seeing a man with an older man, a butler perhaps? He didnt care, but the presence of the first man haunted him like hed known him. Suddenly he heard the voice of the man, and his eyes seemed to shatter. Yusake...?!?! Dante had known what this meant...someone was after him again. He almost welcomed death at this point, as he watched Susie and spoke in a loud tone. SUSIE! I do love you! Please... never forget me..because i know you love me too!!!!! He looked back at Yusake, speaking in a low tone, seeming to be dripped with poison. You b*****d...you dont know when to quit, eh?

Seth slowly took a step forward and placed a hand gently against Susie's cheek, the same way he did when he kissed her. He caressed her cheek gently as his eyes stared deeply into hers, an expression of longing on his face. He wanted to hold her so badly. He longed to feel her warm body in his arms again. To feel the soft touch of her lips against his. He wanted to think that would make things better. However, he knew it wouldn't. It wouldn't change the way she felt for Dante. It wouldn't show her who she truly loved. That she had to find out on her own.
He slowly brought his hand away from her cheek, letting his fingers linger on her skin for a few moments before bring his hand down and closing his eyes. He took a few moments to regroup his thoughts, then hung his head slightly, placing a hand on her shoulder as he began to walk past her, stopping beside her to whisper only two small words into her ear "Find yourself.."
He brought his head back up and opened his eyes, slowly bringing his hand away from her shoulder as he walked away. He looked strong on the outside, a sincere look upon his face, but inside he was dieing. He knew it wouldn't help Susie to let her see that. He knew it would shatter her heart even more if he let her see how truly broken he was inside. He made his way toward the exit door, fighting his instincts to turn back and tell her what he truly felt.
(( Gtg >.o 4:30am x.x Bye everyone. Much <3 ))

"Eh...? And just who the he..." Yusake stopped, blinked when he turned and saw Dante. His eyes narrowed and his body shifted as if ready to engage him. "You...what the hell are you doing here?" his eyes remained on Dante's, and his fists began to clench. "Ehehe...now now gentlemen, there is no need for this." Solumone walked closer toward them, obviously directed toward the center to stand in between them before he was swiftly pushed aside by Yusake. "Get out of my way old man!" Yusake dashed at Dante. He kept both arms under the cloak until quckly reaching him, then sending hi left arm out at Dante's face. The arm swiftly stopped, a faint, which was followed by a swift high left kick aimed at the side of Dante's head.

Susie closed her eyes and turned her head away as he walked off. Her heart felt cold and empty as she replayed the words in her head. She spoke them outloud to herself in a soft, fragile voice. "Find yourself..."
Her face showed a pain in her that was ripping at her. With every moment that passed, a part of her seemed to just float away. It was as though everyone she had ever known has taken parts of her heart and soul. But, it was finally starting to run low on her. Now, leaving her with almost nothing to run on.
She slowly just went to the floor, her knees lowering weakly. Susie stared at the ground and saw strands of her hair rest on it softly. Her tails were spread out around her and she closed her eyes, taking in a deep breath of the air around her that seemed like poison.
Her attention though seemed suddenly pulled as her eyes followed to Yusake. She didnt recognize him at all, but already figured that he was an a** because of his roudy and cocky attitude already shown. But, her eyes widened as she saw Dante standing there, and when she heard his voice. "Dante...?" But it shocked her even more when she suddenly saw Yusake attack him. Susie just stared, not knowing what was going on infront of her. "Dante!!!" She yelled out suddenly as she saw it all.
(( Bye!! <3 ))

Dante watched Yusake come at him closing his eyes and almost allowing the hit to smash him, feeling broken inside from Susi'es words. At the last second he opened his eyes to watch her...and saw her staring at him. He reacted without thought. Pressing himself away from Yusake as his arm. He was happy he had moved, for he saw the leg comming and spun his body, scraping his face against the wall as he he spun off it, backflipping and landing about ten feet from him. He watched Susie, speaking to her in a dangerous tone. Wtach yourself Susie! He didnt want her to leave him, but he didnt wanna risk her health,either

Yusake lowered into a stance, bringing his right hand to one half of the cloak and the other within the cloak. His eyes never left Dante's, even as Dante's own attention became slightly distracted. "Don't tell me your stalling now, losing your nerve?" his grip tightened, lips moving slightly almost like a growl. The other man came up from behind Yusake, tapping the cane down on the floor. As it touched, the azure stone atop it gave off a faint glow. Yusake blinked, and he seemed to suddenly stumble backward, and nearly didn't catch himself from falling. "I believe this is not the proper way to handle things Yusake. Please, let us not further this any more then it has to." the other man smiled, walking in front of Yusake. "What?! You've gotta be kidding me! Look old man, I have a score to settle here and I'm not sitting around for one of your lectures this time. Out of the way!" he stepped forward, almost ready to charge passed the older man. He was still smiling though, shaking his head and simply tapping his cane to the ground.
The stone glowed again, and moments after it did Yusake was knocked back onto the floor in a seated position. "Please Yusake, we have things to attend to. We need to aquire a dormatory for you, sign the proper papers, introduce ourselves to the staff. It would be best that we end this..." and he turned, smiling to Dante. "All of us." he said, the smile never fading...nor did the gentleness in his tone. Yusake finally stood, grinding his teeth and clenching both fists. "Damn you...old man..." but the other man did not pay attention, only waited for a response from Dante.

Dante simply stood there, a soft wind blowing his ivory hair as he watched yusake from behind his glasses, and the other man. He didnt know what was so...calming, about this old man, but it scared him a bit. He watched him carefully as he saw Yusake lowering his guard. Dante took it as a sign the battle was over before it began as he sighed, happy to see Suse was safe, at least for now. Why did you come here,Yusake.... was it for me? Did you come to finish what we started almost 2 years ago... or to try and start over?...nevermind, dont anser that. I dont really care.

Susie shook her head at what Dante yelled to her. She would stay and see what would happen. If Dante needed help, which she doubted, she would be there to help him along. But, from the looks of it after a few moments, it seemed as though the fight stopped from the old man talking to Yusake. She smirked a little and then sighed. Her tails swayed behind her as she took a few steps forward, then stopped.
She didnt really know if she should say anything, or just leave. It wasnt in her to be rude and to interrupt things, even something like this. Though, Dante's words from before ringed through her ears again. And then so did Seth's. They seemed to just play over and over again and she shook her head, trying to regain her mind back. Of course though it didnt work very well.
Despite this, she just watched from a little ways away, looking towards Dante for directions on what she should do. On if she should just walk away, if he wanted to talk to her, or if he would just ignore her.

"Wha...? What the hell?! Don't flatter yourself! I'm here for my own damn reasons. What the hell are YOU doing here, huh?!" he growled, and seemed just about ready to fight right off the bat. But, he managed to calm himself slightly and only growl as the other man held his hand out. "Now now Yusake, we should be on our way and not trouble these two further." he said with his usual smile. "What?! Hold up, what the hell is he doing here?! Why didn't you tell me he was going to be here?! he yelled in anger, shaking his left fist in the man's direction. "What? Whatever do you mean?" he said with a confused look in his face.
"Don't play stupid with me Graves, you know these things. You knew he was going to be here and you didn't tell me, why? What, you thought that would keep me from steering clear of this place?! Hell...I don't even wanna know, just lead the way to wherever the hell else you wanna go, just don't expect me to act like I don't know you knew about this." he stood straight now, turning his head away from the three of them. "Ehehe...very well then Yusake. And I'm terribly sorry to the both of you for the commotion, I suppose that an apology isn't much however. My name is Solumone Graves, and it seems your friend m'lady, already knows my companion." he smiled in his characteristically calm and gentle way to Susie.

Susie stepped forward some and got closer to the three of them, being interested as to what they were talking about. She stood close to Dante and narrowed her eyes slightly as she listened to the two bicker and argue for a moment. Her attention was then pulled by Solumone as he introduced himself. She forced a small smile accross her pale lips and nodded her head politely to him.
"Ah, yes. I see that... My name is Susie Shishu. Its nice to meet you, Solumone." Her blue eyes looked at him curiously and then to Yusake. But, her gaze quickly turned away as she didnt want him to notice her staring at him for a few moments.
"And there's no need to apologize. Sometimes people are noisy. They just cant help it.." A smirk spread accross her face and a mischevious look went into her eyes. Her three black fox tails wagged slightly behind her, dusting the floor and her fox ears were perked up slightly.
