  “Aw, you’re not fun!” Elizabeth pout on the dragon answer before looking up towards one of the maids with a sweet smile to reply, “red wine please!” Once the maid heard Elizabeth order and gave her wine, the young woman glance back at Soryu with a mope expression and wondered why he was so secretive on where he came from but as she took a quick glance on Alice to hear her order made Elizabeth turn back to the dragon in question while a maid pour some water in his glass. “Since you won’t tell me where you came from, how about you tell me about yourself? I’m sure Alice will be delighted to know too since she doesn’t ask very much questions.” Smiling pleasantly towards him before Alice look up at her with a frown. A cold chill ran down Elizabeth spine. ‘My, aren’t we protective,’ Elizabeth thought calmly to ignore the warning that Alice has given her. For a long time, Elizabeth was well aware of Alice disliking her and the woman couldn’t blame the child due to the arrange marriage between their parents. To be completely honest, it was quite unexpected that it happened in the first place. Normally, the parents that they had wouldn’t do such a thing but since it happened. It was rather difficult to get along with Alice since day one. Instead of being a curious, sweet character from the book from “Alice in Wonderland” that everyone knows about turns out that the Alice that she sits across from her is a nightmare. As Elizabeth continues to smile and wait for Soryu reply in hopes he would at least answer that question. Alice soon spoke in a warning tone, “do not use me as a way to get what you want.” As Alice stare at Elizabeth in anger, the woman couldn’t help but smile more on the mistress attitude. “I don’t mean to use you that way but don’t you think it’s time to get know him? After all, you haven’t spend much time with him like your suppose to,” Elizabeth remark to cause Alice to glare dangerously to know the woman plan. How dare her say something like that! Yes, it was true that she did not spend much time with Soryu but the mistress knew perfectly well that not all slaves want to be with their mistress or masters 24/7 in their lives. Being beside their owner every second of their lives is quite annoying and Alice knew this very well because of Gabriel and William. To keep a cool attitude from beating Elizabeth, the butler, John, quickly went behind his mistress and bends down to whisper something in Elizabeth ear.
Carefully watching Elizabeth and John from where she sat before turning her head slightly to look at Irene with a frown. Her patience’s towards their guests was growing thin. “Is it really necessary for her to be here?” Alice asks out loud for everyone to hear in which caused Irene to panic on the mistress sudden question. “Alice, don’t be rude!” Irene said twitchily as one of the maids began to pick up her empty plate and replace it with dessert. “I want Elizabeth to lea-,” before Alice could finish her sentence, a nervous laugh was let out when Irene quickly covered the mistress mouth from talking further. Dear god, why is this girl so rude towards her sister-in-law?! As Irene stare at Alice for a moment before looking up at Soryu and Elizabeth at the dinner table, her eyes signal the maids to quickly get out the dessert. Continuing to cover Alice mouth from talking to watch the maids run back to the kitchen, a grin soon form on Elizabeth lips to have her chance to ask slowly, “Soryu, would you mind telling me your thoughts about Miss Alice? I know this is quite personal to ask you right now but I’m quite curious on what you think of her so far due to her silly attitude that she is presenting right now.” When the question was let out, the room fell silent and gave an awkward atmosphere. Having Irene let out a disbelieve glance while Alice glare dangerously at the woman cause the mistress to slap Irene hand away from her. As Alice stood up from her seat to stare at Elizabeth furiously made the young girl ‘hmph’ and walk out of the dining room without a word. “A-Alice!” Irene called out panicky to watch the young mistress open the door and slam it behind her. Once the door slammed on them made Elizabeth giggle on the scene and had Irene stare at her in displeasure. “Are you mad!?” Irene asks in an upsetting tone. “I can’t help it!” Elizabeth said in defense as the maids soon came in with their desserts. “She’s just adorable when she’s mad and beside this is a good chance for Soryu to get to know her!” Irene only stared at Elizabeth in shock and was soon beginning to understand why Alice was so irritated with her. Letting out a long sigh to watch the maids give out the desserts to the remaining people in the room made Irene stare at the seat beside her. With Alice missing out her favorite dessert on the table made the scientist rub her head in frustration on what to do.

Soryu Gododavi
♦The Dragon Swordsman♦
Silently eating his meal now, enjoying every single bite that he places within his mouth, Soryu's right eye twitches slightly, along with his ears perking up as he eats with his eyes closed, listening to the one named Elizabeth say he's no fun. He's a damn fighter for Gods sake, of course he's no fun! And where he lives is technically none of her business either. His town is secretive, and practically nobody knows where it is on the map. It's suppose to be that way, so that people do not go about stealing random dragons and enslaving them. Bad enough he was captured, he does not wish for the others to be taken either. He finds out that his family has been taken and enslaved, he's going to snap and destroy everything in his wake. This is no idle threat either, this is a promise. He finds out his parents are slaves, everything and everyone is dead. The blue dragon shall grasp the ones that enslaved his family and strangle the very life out of their bodies until they are limp and dead. They will not be worthy enough for a quick death by his blades. Opening his eyes as he stops eating for the moment, he takes a sip out of his glass of water, his blood red eyes looking at Elizabeth, setting the glass down onto the table. Tell her about himself? What's there to know about him? He's a mix between two breeds of dragons, and he's a fighter. Nothing more, nothing less. Mistress Alice knows this much about him, as he told her this back at the slave market. Directing his attention to Mistress Alice, he can tell that the young woman isn't too happy about such topics. Shrugging his shoulders, he sighs silently, knowing things aren't going to turn out good at the dinner table. "I'm a fighter, and a mixed breed of two dragons. Not much to know about me, actually..." he answers the woman's question, then goes back to eating his meal...
Judging by Mistress Alice's tone, she isn't too happy about Elizabeth butting into his business... Which, he cannot blame her for. Soryu can understand that Mistress Alice does not appreciate her company at all. He really has no intention on giving the woman any other information about himself, besides the fact that there really isn't much to say about himself. He's a wandering warrior that's a mixed breed, that's it. Besides, if his Mistress wishes to know more about him, all she has to do is ask, and he shall tell her everything she wishes to know, It's as simple as that. Hell, she practically gave Sofia his life story, and he was willing to do so, just because she's kind and polite. Elizabeth, on the other hand, apparently likes to jump the gun instantly and request a lot in a short amount of time. Finishing up his food, the blue dragon prevents himself from laughing out loud when Mistress Alice asks if Elizabeth has to be here. She definitely doesn't like the woman, and he can tell. Placing the fork and knife down onto the empty plate, he keeps his cool as he directs his attention back to Elizabeth, listening to her as she asks more questions. Again with the questions. His thoughts about Miss Alice? Frankly, she's a kind and generous young woman, enough said. She's a kind Mistress, to him at least. She's a lively one, yes, and quite sporadic. But overall, he enjoys her company. Chuckling lightly, his cheerful expression fades as he directs his attention to Mistress Alice, only to see her quite upset and storm out of the dining room. Blinking a couple of times, his ears fall back as she slams the door. Listening to the mad woman that is Elizabeth, he growls lowly to her and glares, immediately getting up from his seat and rush towards the door, opening it and closing it behind him. "Mistress Alice, wait!" he calls out to her, wanting to catch up to her before she does something she may regret. He can understand that the woman gets on her nerves, but still.

Irene let out a frustrated growl when Soryu ran after Alice and places her hands on her hips to stare at Elizabeth unhappily to say, “I don’t appreciate that you made the mistress upset.” Watching the guest eat her dessert happily in her seat with a look that seem rather uncaring irritated Irene on the woman attitude, slowly losing her patience with the woman made Irene wish for the guest to leave early for the actions she has done. Of course, Irene didn’t mind Elizabeth acting like this to begin with because she knew very well that the mad woman was only doing this to have fun but to point where Elizabeth did not realize that it has hurt other people feelings made Irene want to grab her and throw her out for making an upsetting atmosphere. As her light purple eyes flicker to watch Elizabeth turn her attention to her made Irene prepared on her words. “Like I said before,” Elizabeth began sweetly. “I can’t help it when she looks adorable like that but I didn’t mean to upset her that much. I was hoping to bring those two together and have a strong bond with each other but it seems that it didn’t work too well.” The smile on Elizabeth face didn’t fade after what she explained but seeing the hint of guilt in her lovely green eyes made Irene sigh to stand up straight and look at the doors heading towards the hallway. Imagination Alice throwing a fit on the other side of the manor on the event causes Irene to place one of her hands on her forehead and grab a talisman out of her back pocket with her free hand. Staring at the shiny object for a moment before grasping it in her hand tightly made Irene walk aside of her chair and push it back to its place. “Keep in mind you have a time limit in this place Mrs. Copper,” Irene reminded her guest with her eyes closed as Elizabeth stared at the scientist with a playful grin. “Of course but you wouldn’t mind if I spend the night here, right?” Elizabeth asks to cause Irene to give out a glare. “After what you done? I don’t think so. Please leave immediately before the traps are activated. Tonight is going to be long for us if you have forgotten.” Giving Elizabeth a stern glare to be serious on the subject cause the guest to sigh sadly and stood up from her seat with her eyes closed. As John walk beside Elizabeth and raise one of his hands to escort her out of her seat, one the maids from the kitchen walk out and began cleaning up the mess on the table. Listening to the plates click here and there before turning to walk towards the doors to open for Elizabeth to leave. An uncomfortable vibe was given out behind Irene and as the scientist turn to see Elizabeth staring at her with a mischievous smile made Irene tense. Watching Elizabeth walk pass by her made time stop between them. “Be sure to protect Miss Alice well tonight,” Elizabeth whispered. “It would be a shame if she were to die before her illness.” Irene eyes widen on Elizabeth comment and turned swiftly to yell something but before she could open her mouth. Irene was shock to see Elizabeth and John out of sight. Standing by the doorway with a troubled look cause Irene to shake her head quickly and start running off to find Alice and Soryu.
Once Alice left the dining room with an annoyed expression on her face, the mistress made her way up the stairs to the second floor. Feeling irritated as hell by the way Elizabeth has acted towards her at the dinner table reach the young girl limit on being patience with her “sister-in-law”. How much longer does this mad woman have to visit her? The more she visits unexpectedly, the more Alice wanted to run away but keeping in mind that running away isn’t going to solve anything made the girl growl lowly on what to do in her situation. Since the day the marriage was announced that winter day, the frustration she had towards her family grew bigger and bigger as the time past. The more Alice stayed in her family manor will cause her to go insane but being thankful that she was able to get out once and awhile as long that she obeyed her grandmother rules. Alice kept her mouth shut as much as possible to avoid trouble. Already, it was bad enough that William hasn’t come home with grandmother. Feeling anxious on her driver return and hope that he comes home in one piece with no injury had Alice pray constantly in her mind for his safety. Carefully walking up the stairs before hearing someone calling out her name force Alice to turn quickly to see who was after her and seeing it was only Soryu made the mistress sigh to relax. ‘Today isn’t a good day for me,’ she thought in disappointment as she tries to push away the irritation to avoid any conflict towards her protector and as she straighten herself out properly and watch the dragon run towards her. She waited patiently for him to catch up.

Soryu Gododavi
♦The Dragon Swordsman♦
Rushing after his Mistress, the blue dragon wishes to somehow find a way that can help Mistress Alice, and prevent her from doing something that she may regret in the future. Soryu does not wish her to do anything too rash, as it could have a fairly large impact on not only him, but her entire family as well. With him being Mistress Alice's slave, or protector in this case, it is his job... or sworn duty in this case, to be there by his Mistresses side, no matter what happens. Even if she isn't necessarily in trouble, he still has to be there for her, even for support on certain situations, such as this one. Now, just because she got into an argument with another family member by the looks of it, it doesn't necessarily mean he has to take his Mistresses side through it all. Just because he's a slave now, doesn't mean he doesn't have a mind of his own. But that woman was definitely rude... and a strange one to boot. Just something about her seems extremely off, and it bothers him. Whatever it is about her that's bothersome, he cannot worry about it now, he has to stay by his Mistresses side, regardless...
Rushing away from the dining room, following the very scent that his Mistress has. Soryu may not have the greatest sense of smell like all the dragons, but he can definitely track down certain people and the scent they give off, depending on who it is. Considering he is tracking down his Mistress, he is more than capable of picking up her scent, and acts like a dog, if you will, to track her down. The only difference between him and a dog, is that he doesn't run on all fours, and he's actually a lot faster than any normal mutt. Steadily running at a decent pace, not running at full speed mind you, he tracks Mistress Alice down, knowing very well that she is heading upstairs in the Manor. Rushing towards the staircase, he spots her standing there, looking down the stairs and at him. Running at a steady pace towards the staircase, he hops up slightly and plants his clawed feet onto the wooden railing, and stops right before his Mistress, planting his hands onto the railing and keeps his balance. At this point, he's a bit higher than his Mistress, as he feels like a Gargoyle that is perched onto its stone, looking down to his Mistress. His long blue tail gently swaying back and forth behind him, the tip being partially seen above his head from his Mistresses point of view, he keeps his blood red eyes locked onto his Mistresses eyes. He is quite glad that she allowed him to catch up, but if he truly wished to, he would have been more than capable of catching up with her. "Mistress Alice, as your slave, it is my duty to make sure you are feeling more than comfortable, and with your most recent argument with that fairly strange woman, I am here for you if you wish to relieve some stress. In other words, if you wish to vent, I am all ears." he informs her, his ears perking up as he mentioned he was all ears. He grins to her, his fangs showing as he chuckles lightly, finding it somewhat amusing..

Once Soryu caught up with her at the stairways made the mistress surprise to see his eyes lock onto hers. Feeling a bit uncomfortable on this made Alice slightly turn her head away to her right. As she carefully listens to what Soryu has said to her about venting her frustrations on him soon force her to face him with a slight frown. Vent her frustrations on him? Why in world would she do that? Of course she was frustrated on Elizabeth attitude but venting her problems on someone like that is just plain annoying. Remembering the time Irene vent her problems on her one time in the lab made it quite difficult to understand why she was so stubborn to apologize to Gabriel at the time but as a sigh was let out to place one of her hands on her hip. Her dark red eyes stare up at the dragon with a serious face. “You may be a slave in everyone else eyes but in my eyes you are your own person who can too make your own decisions as everyone else,” Alice said in a stern yet calming tone before turning to walk up the stairs now to prevent showing Soryu how hurt she was. “I didn’t buy you to have you force yourself to be slave like. I expect you to be yourself and that you do your best in the jobs that you do in the manor. It really hurts my feelings to have you think like that because I know you’re not the type who is willing to do every single thing for your master or mistress. Don’t get me wrong. I’m really grateful that your loyal and caring but I have to beg you not to grow too attach to me because my lifespan is quite short than you expect and beside didn’t you say that you some important matter to attend to after dinner?” Soon after she was finish talking, the feeling of embarrassment began to develop. Not quite understanding why she was so embarrass saying what she just said made her quite confused on how to react to the situation but thinking about it carefully in her mind. Alice guessed it might be because Soryu was so caring. After purchasing him from the slave marketplace, the mistress did not expect him to be so loyal and kind straight away. Compare to the other slaves that Alice has purchase; most of slaves were frighten and shy to talk to her but after spending some time with Soryu throughout the day was rather amusing and relaxing.
Listening to the silences of the manor for a second before hearing some footsteps heading towards the front doors, her attention soon went down below her to see Elizabeth and John heading out. Staying quiet to watch the Elizabeth leave the manor with her butler, the woman soon took a halt and look up at her. As their eyes met for a second, a sly smile began to form on the Elizabeth lips and startled Alice on the sudden grin. Feeling alert and uncomfortable on the unexpected greeting from her sister-in-law, the doors in front of Elizabeth opened slowly. “Be sure to stay safe tonight my dear,” Elizabeth said sweetly before facing forward to walk out. “It would be a pity if you died again. Have a pleasant night!” Once Elizabeth walk out with John following behind. The doors closed shut with a clicking sound. As Alice stood there with a frown on what Elizabeth said made the girl sigh in irritation on her comment. Have a pleasant night? Haha, that’s something to laugh about. Standing at the staircase with her arms folded across her chest, the annoyance within Alice began to grow again. Feeling that her time was running out faster than usual had the mistress focus on her goals and those goals were to try to stay alive as much as possible and find the people trying to kill her right now. Thinking to herself deeply on why Elizabeth would say such a thing towards her was very suspicious but then again everything she does and says was unexplainable. Since the death of her husband, it was rather odd that she started to act carefree and childlike now. Remembering the time she cried her eyes out for a whole day when she receive the news of his death was unbelievable on how long she cried but as the next day came she was suddenly happy again. From the information that Alice has gathered from the Fletcher family and hers, it was believed that the reason why she was unexpectedly optimistic was because Elizabeth decided to stay positive for everyone and before anyone knew it. Elizabeth then began to spend some time with her one evening. “I’ll never understand her,” Alice suddenly said out loud to stare at the front doors blankly before snapping out of thought to remember who she was with. Shaking her head quickly to shake off the suspicious feeling she had towards Elizabeth. Her attention went back to Soryu and apologized, “Sorry about that. I tend to say things out loud without meaning to. I hope Elizabeth didn’t annoy you too much at the dinner table.”

Soryu Gododavi
♦The Dragon Swordsman♦
Watching his Mistress turn away for the moment, causes the blue dragon to slightly tilt his head to the side with minor confusion. Does the young Mistress feel uncomfortable about him actually being here? She has never had a problem with him being around her before until now, so why does this make any difference? Perhaps it's just the current setting of the mood that's making her feel a tad bit uncomfortable which Soryu can understand to a point, but still. He's here for her if she truly needs to talk to someone, and she should know this. Seeing that frown of hers, he frowns back, his ears going back to their original positions on the top of his head, tilting back somewhat. Listening to her words, he is fully aware of this information, as he has been told this... twice? He cannot remember, but that's irrelevant. He's been told this information before, that's point. The blue dragon is fully aware that he is able to make his own decisions, and he has decided to be by her side, especially when she is feeling rather upset about something, such as the current situation. He can be himself? Isn't that something he's doing at the moment. Okay, so maybe he worded his explanation wrong, but still. It's the fact that he's here if she needs him to be. But, if she does not wish him to be here, then he does not have to be, but he wants to be. Staying crouched down on the staircase railing, his frowns heavily, he ears drooping down slightly as he didn't mean to hurt her feelings. He's just trying to help, that's all. And of course, he did kind of forget about the little thing with Gabriel, but of course, he doesn't know where he is at the moment...
Sighing and shaking his head, Soryu loosens up a bit in his current position, his tail hanging down from the edge of the stairs, swaying back and forth playfully like he is some kind of pet. The silence being quite uncomfortable, the blue dragons ears twitch slightly, picking up the sounds of footsteps at the bottom of the staircase, directing his attention towards the front door immediately as he keeps his current position, not moving the other parts of his body except for his tail, almost like he is some kind of statue that has been put on the railing of the staircase. It's that strange woman and her butler. He growls lowly, not liking her one bit. She's a bit of a freak. But then again, that's not even true, she's more than a freak, but the blue dragon cannot seem to come up with any other words for her. Listening to the woman's words, he raises an eyebrow to her, wondering what she means. Mistress Alice shall be safe tonight, as he'll be on watch throughout the entire night. But... what does she mean by "died again"? What exactly is going on here? And why does he get the feeling he's missing something here? This doesn't seem right, but then again that woman is indeed a strange one. Perhaps whatever sanity she had has been lost. That woman needs a reality check, and fast, because it seems her insanity is just getting worse and worse with each passing moment. And frankly, it annoys him to a point where he just wants to silence her. Her mouth alone is getting her into deep waters with him, which is quite possibly the worst thing you could do to yourself. Getting on this dragons bad side, you'll find yourself dug further than six feet into the ground...
Growling heavily as the woman and her butler leaves the Manor, Soryu sighs and shakes his head, not wanting to deal with her anymore. She's a freak, that's all that matters, as nothing else needs to be said about her. He doesn't want to deal with her anymore, as he hates her, and Mistress Alice doesn't enjoy her company either, and she's family to the young Mistress if he's not mistaken. Looking back up to his Mistress as she states that she'll never understand that woman, he can definitely agree with his Mistress on that, not that he has any reason for disagreeing with her anyway. Hearing her apology, the blue dragon simply grins to the young Mistress, shaking his head. She has no reason to apologize for the stupid actions of that strange woman. Mistress Alice has done nothing wrong to apologize in the first place. And she certainly doesn't have to apologize about what she said to him, that's for sure. Standing up on the staircase railing, he begins to steadily walk up it towards his Mistress, jumping off of the railing and gracefully landing onto his two clawed feet, folding his arms against his chest as he grins to his Mistress. "Don't worry about it Alice, there is no need for you to apologize. I understand where you were going with your explanation, and I appreciate it all. But I am fully aware of the fact that I'm more than capable of making my own decisions and what not, that I can act on my own accord. Well, since I've been fully aware of this for some time, I do believe it was my own decision, my own actions to rush after you and away from dinner, just to talk with you and try to calm you down. Sure, the wording of my explanation probably needed some touching up, thus making you believe that I have the mind set of an actual slave, when I really don't. Therefore, I apologize if I hurt your feelings with the way I explained things, and hope that I didn't hurt you too much."

It was a relief to know that Soryu kept in mind on what she told him because she was dreadfully frighten on his mind automatically setting into serving her but seeing that it wasn’t going to happen made her smile a bit to know that he is strong character. To know this trait from the dragon gave Alice high hopes on him because she was now confident that he is the one for the job that she has for him but waiting for the right time to tell him about it won’t be awhile. Continuing to walk up the stairs before noticing Soryu jumping onto the staircase railing to walk where she is before landing on his feet by her made her blink for a couple seconds before grinning back in return. “I’m so jealous of you,” Alice commented with a playful pout. “I wish I can have that kind of balance without falling off.” As her grin turn into a smile. The tension that she once back at the dinner table completely disappeared. Feeling the it was right to be herself now since none of her workers are around them cause the mistress to think of a game to play before heading to sleep but remembering that Soryu had something to do had her stare at him in puzzlement. “Soryu,” she said in confusion. “Who were you suppose to meet after dinner?” The question she ask was rather out of curiosity because usually there are three people that the dragon can meet up with and it was either: Irene, Gabriel, or Sofia. Any of those three usually have something for their new employee and wanting to know what it was. She hopes Soryu will tell her but having some sort of a doubt feeling that he would. She insists on trying anyway. Waiting patiently for his answer before hearing the bell of the grandfather clock ring loudly that it was now eight o’clock cause Alice to mope that she has an hour left until the traps are activated but keeping a lookout for William or her horrible grandmother in the manor. Alice couldn’t help but wonder where they are. Several hours have passed and still they have not arrived. The weird part of all this was that they even misses dinner! Hoping that William isn’t tied up somewhere and beaten outside of the property force Alice to bite her bottom lip anxiously on her driver whereabouts and pray desperately in her mind that he wasn’t left alone out in the darkness. Not wanting to go through the horrors of finding him completely beaten up like before. She opens her mouth to ask for a favor but as she stops herself to suddenly think it will bring too much stress on the dragon force her to keep her mouth completely shut. Since tonight is going to be his first night fighting off the assassins with Sofia and the others until daylight, the mistress didn’t want to wary out the warrior too soon. Knowing the schedule that Gabriel has set up for him, it was obvious that her butler was going to have Soryu fight every night to get use to the traps. ‘Darn it Gabriel,’ the mistress cursed herself. ‘Why do you have to make things so complicated?’
Thinking on what to do with her problem, the possibly of finding William or her grandmother successfully was too low because of the property that her family owns was rather large and that it was difficult to be sure that they were even home at all. Knowing her grandmother, she is willing to go far away as possible from the manor to prevent people finding out the abuse that she still does and if anyone outside of the manor were to find out that she continues on doing her terrible habit. Lady Maria will be spending her time in prison for the rest of her life this time. As Alice red eyes began to dim on what to do. A hint of worry soon began to show through her eyes. Maybe she is over thinking this? Certainly not. With her grandmother history of abuse it is unlikely for Alice to not worry at all. Especially when involves with her guardians. Oh, her father will be certainly mad if he were to find out that William is beaten again for no reason and before Alice could continue with her thoughts. A sound of running footsteps from outside came dashing pass the front doors. Raising an eyebrow to hear a sudden clicking sound of the doors being lock from the outside made Alice blink in confusion on what happened and face the doors. ‘Odd,’ Alice thought in bafflement to stare at the front doors. ‘The doors automatically lock themselves after Irene and Gabriel activate the traps.’ Staring at the entrance for a moment before shrugging off the confusion to continue her way up the stairs to go to bed. Alice couldn’t help but be continued to be bothered on the doors manually being lock by someone. Slightly turning her head to look down below her to remember what Gabriel has told her one time when she was young. The security system within and outside the manor was completely done by magic and that there was no need for anyone to manually lock something unless there was a reason for it and as far as the mistress knows that there was no reason to lock the entrances manually made Alice alert to know that someone was here before the traps being set off. Keeping a cool and calming appearance to pretend that she didn’t notice the doors being locked by hand had Alice look up at Soryu with a puzzled stare.

Soryu Gododavi
♦The Dragon Swordsman♦
Seeing the Mistress smile, even in the slightest makes the blue dragon chuckle lightly to himself. Soryu at least accomplishes his small mission on cheering his Mistress up. Seeing her sad, depressed, and anything else you wish to add on to the list, is something he doesn't wish to see. Hell, it doesn't even have to be his Mistress that's sad and depressed. It could be anybody else that he considers a friend, or family for that matter, that even he'll spring into action to try and cheer them up. Call it a reflex, or call it whatever you wish, it's just the way he is. Besides him being a fighter of sorts, a strong one at that, he doesn't enjoy seeing the people he knows sad and depressed, so he tries to help them to the best of his ability. Hell, he's sure that they would even do the same thing for him. Just like how Sofia cheered him up back in the music room earlier today, which he is at least thankful for. Although, he still does feel as though he could have somehow prevented himself from getting captured and turned into a slave, but at this point in time, he believes there's really not much he can do at this point. What's done is done, and time cannot be turned back. The blue dragon is just going to have to deal with it for the rest of his life. If it's with this young Mistress, whom is fair, kind, and caring towards him, then hell, he doesn't give a damn. He's basically not even a slave, more like a bodyguard of sorts, which is a fairly easy job for someone like him. Watching his Mistress make her way up the stairs, he laughs a little towards her words, finding it somewhat amusing. Such balance is easy to pull off if you have trained as long as this blue dragon. Being a strong and agile fighter, he is even able to run up walls and jumps off of them, even scale up to new heights by jumping on and off of two adjacent walls that just so happen to be close to each other. Of course, he won't actually be doing such things unless it's really necessary...
Soryu immediately notices that the tension that his Mistress had from dinner has completely vanished, which is something he was working to accomplish. Mission complete. The blue dragon feels better about himself for cheering his Mistress up, and perhaps that he's able to cheer her up with most of the things that he's able to do with his abilities. He could probably bring his Mistress to the roof of the Manor some day, just so she can get a good sight of everything around her own home. That always brings a smile to most people, relaxing their nerves with the relaxing breeze blowing against their skin. Raising an eyebrow to his Mistress as she calls his name, then blinks in mild confusion towards her question. Ah yes, he has to meet up with Gabriel before the traps are set up for the entire night, so that he may be able to acquire a talisman so that he is able to see the traps during the night. Sighing and shaking his head, he rubs the back of his head, frowning lightly to the young Mistress. "I have to go speak with Gabriel so that I can go about getting a talisman, so that I can see the traps and don't get myself killed during the night while doing my job. Although, I am not too sure as to where he is at the moment... I could always wait until he finds me." he tells her, his frown turning into a small grin as he chuckles lightly at the thought. He's feeling kind of lazy at the moment. Gabriel will just have to find him, because he doesn't know where that damn elf is, and this place is pretty big to go searching for one person. The sound of someone rushing outside the front door catches his attention immediately, his sensitive ears perking up as he looks passed his Mistress and to the front door, the young woman doing the same as she hears it too. Hearing the clicking sound of the front door being locked, the blue dragons raises an eyebrow to this, his tail twitching from side to side for the moment. He directs his attention back to his Mistress with a somewhat confused expression, not sure what to make of this. "Um, Mistress? Dare I ask as to what that was? Does anybody within this Manor randomly run up to the front doors from the outside, lock it, and run away? Or am I simply just going crazy now?"

By the looks of things, it seem that Alice wasn’t the only one who thought it was odd of the doors being lock outside and to see Soryu staring at her with a confused expression cause Alice to give out a look that is rather concern on the problem. “The doors within the manor usually lock themselves once the traps are activated and it seems that the fight has started an hour early today,” Alice explained with a straight face that seem rather calm on the situation and as she turn her head to look down at the entrances once more. Running footsteps began again but this time it was inside the manor and to see Irene running towards the front doors before making a halt to search for something or someone in the area. The young scientist then notices Soryu and Alice standing at the staircase together. “There you are!” Irene exclaim with a wide smile. “I been looking all over for you Mr. Soryu!” As Alice watches Irene walk up to them, the young mistress step aside and watch. Being sure that Irene doesn’t do anything funny towards Soryu with her experiments, her eyes lock on the scientist seriously before widen her eyes a bit in surprise to see the pendant on the scientist palm. Staring at the accessory for a moment to admire the design that Irene held in her hand was breath-taking. Seeing a dull golden crescent moon with mysterious black writing on it had two pair of sharp looking white teeth tied to the end of its point and as the curved moon hover over a golden chained circular ruby gem that has golden rims surrounding it attach itself on the moon arch was magnificent to look at. Seeing the talisman glow slightly purple to be ready in use had the young mistress question on its power. Looking up at the woman that stood beside her soon jump a bit in fright to see Irene grinning madly at her to know the question she was going to ask. “This is a talisman that Soryu needs to see the traps. If he puts it in his pocket or around his neck, he will be able to dodge them no problem tonight!” Irene answered with mischievous grin before turning to Soryu with a serious look. “And please be sure not to lose this!” the scientist said in a warning tone as she hand over the dull golden chained necklace to Soryu. “This talisman took me forever to make!”
Once Irene gave Soryu the talisman, her light purple eyes began to wonder around for Gabriel. Looking rather puzzled to see the elf not with them had Irene question on what the butler has been up to these pass few hours. It was odd that he miss dinner along with his brother and the mistress grandmother. Maybe Gabriel found them? Who knows. Whatever the case, the scientist couldn’t help but worry about the twins’ whereabouts and seeing Alice not showing any signs of worry or concern on them had Irene panic a bit. “Where’s Gabriel?” Irene asks in an impatient tone. “No idea,” Alice answered with a shrug to watch Irene raise one of her hand and bite her thumb nail to think. “Damn it,” Irene cursed quietly in annoyance as she chew on her nail for a moment to calculate the plan she had in her mind and before she puts her hands down to her side. Irene suddenly points at the dragon with a stern look. “Soryu, you’re coming with me!” she ordered firmly. “I shall explain more about the traps that we have in this manor and Alice I need you to go to your room this instant! We have an uninvited guest that we need to take care of so off to bed with you!” Irene ordered once again to face Alice with a stiff look in which cause the mistress to let out a giggle on how silly the scientist look. By the way Irene was standing beside her and in front of Soryu, the pose that she was presenting made her look like a superhero capturing a bad guy doing a bad deed and to see Irene being serious on the decision she made had Alice do a deep curtsy bow to them to say, “Thank you for your hard work and please be careful tonight. I would hate to see you both getting hurt by those awful men. Try not to overdo things, okay? I bid you two goodnight and I’ll see you tomorrow.” As the mistress said this, she then stood up straight and look at them in worry. Knowing what they’re doing was a tough job had Alice pray twice as more for their safety tonight. Since this is Soryu first night fighting off the terrible people that were after her. Alice couldn’t help but wish for a way to help them on the battle but knowing that there wasn’t anything she could do cause the girl to sigh in sadness and walk up the stairs once more and before she could reach the second floor successfully for bedtime. Irene suddenly hugs the young girl from behind with a girlish squeal, “Nyaaaww, I’m so happy that you care so much about us! I'm so thankful that I have such a kind mini mistress!”

Soryu Gododavi ♦The Dragon Swordsman♦ Looking at his Mistress with a somewhat concerned expression, Soryu cannot help but feel as though something is strangely off all of a sudden. Whoever it was that just ran by the front door, outside of course, and hearing the doors lock, it makes him wonder as to what the hell is going on all of a sudden. What that freak of a woman said earlier makes him wonder if this has to do with what she said. Does Elizabeth have something to do with this? Listening to the Mistress, he finds it somewhat interesting that the doors within the Manor lock themselves once the traps are activated. But since only the front doors locked... in fact, he's not even sure. Hearing another set of footsteps, the blue dragon directs his attention down the steps to spot Irene, as she seems to be looking for someone or something, or perhaps she's in a rush. Hearing that the woman was looking for him, he raises an eyebrow to her in question, wondering why she was looking for him. Did he do something wrong? Now that he thinks about it, he did kind of storm out of the dining hall without saying anything, even though he was going to comfort his Mistress. Listening to Irene explain herself, he blinks a couple of times, taking notice of the talisman within her hand. So that's what they looks like. And here he was thinking they looked somewhat ridiculous. Taking the talisman, he puts it around his neck as Mistress Alice and Irene converse, examining the very material the talisman was made out of. Quite impressive, he must say. Directing his attention to Irene as she basically orders him to go with her. Hearing that they have an uninvited guest to take care of, he nods his head slightly. It looks like the fun begins now, huh? So much for waiting at least a decent amount of time after dinner. Oh well, he isn't complaining. The blue dragon grins to Mistress Alice and chuckles lightly, believing he is just going to be fine. Watching Irene hug Mistress Alice from behind, getting into a lovey dovey moment, he clears his throat loud enough for the two to hear him. "I don't mean to rush you, but you did say we have an uninvited guest within the Manor. I do believe it's time we searched the Manor for this uninvited guest..."
(( Crappy post... sorry...  ))

 ºØغøº¤ø,¸¸,ºº¤øøºﷲﷲ°º¤ø ⊙▂⊙ ºØغøº¤ø,¸¸,ºº¤øøºﷲﷲ°º¤ø The scientist only pouted when the dragon repeat on what she said earlier and as she release the young girl to watch her lose her balance on the sudden hug soon made Irene grin to watch Alice stumble up the stairs. Giggling slightly on the scene before placing both of her hands on her hips, a wide smile form on her lips to say in a singing motherly tone, “Be sure not to stay up late darling~!!” Once that was said, the woman receive a glare from Alice and as Irene waved goodbye to her before turning to face Soryu with a smile once Alice was out of sight. She then pointed up the stairs with a smirk. “Let’s hurry upstairs and activate the traps before the intruders gets in,” Irene said in excitement as she takes a step up the stairs. “Sofia and the others won’t be able to handle most of the intruders at once outside much longer.” Jogging up the stairs to reach the second floor to head towards the hallway, the scientist took a left and ran all the way down to the end of the hall. Looking on her left and right to be sure that all the doors were closed all the way, her attention soon went up to look at a huge portrait of the master of the house ahead of her. As her playful smile turns into a smirk once she reaches her destination. Irene then halt, grab the portrait, and place it aside next to the table in front of it. Being careful as she places the portrait down on the red carpet from damaging the frame, the scientist then turn around be sure Soryu was following behind. Not wanting activate the traps without him beside her had Irene look at the hallway again. Double making sure that the doors were closed and that there was nobody in the hallway from where she stood, her purple cat-like eyes wonder around the hall. ‘Nobody here,’ Irene thought carefully before standing up straight to fold her arms over her chest to look serious now.
Thinking about intruders that have been invading the manor for several years now had the scientist question on why they suddenly attack an hour early. From what she remembers and knows, the invasion does not start after nine. Looking at her silver watch to see it was only 8:05PM made her frown deeply. Just what in the world is going on? For as long as she remember, this whole fight started after Alice turned five and going back to the past to think about why in world would they could possibly want from young mistress puzzled the scientist greatly. Listing all the possibilities on what they could do to Alice was endless in her mind. Definitely, she and the other guardians knew that it wasn’t about money because of a note that they receive some time ago after the first invasion. Before the first invasion started, a note was sent to them with no address. Remembering how frighten the parents were made everyone concern on the young girl future. If this kidnapping were to continue on, the future child that Alice will have with her future husband will be targeted next. As a sigh was let out on how tired and frustrated she was. Irene then rubs her head with her right hand with a confused look. “If only we could capture one of the intruders and question them without the individual dying,” Irene said out loud with a serious look. ºØغøº¤ø,¸¸,ºº¤øøºﷲﷲ°º¤ø ⊙▂⊙ ºØغøº¤ø,¸¸,ºº¤øøºﷲﷲ°º¤ø [[It's okay. I can't think either. My head hurts. D=]]
