Rinon has shed his tears. He has told his mother. And now, all that is left to do is to find Ximena, and tell her. He isn't sure how she is going to take it, as she has been rather hard for him to read for years now. But, he knows he has to do it.
"You are NOT going dressed like that, Rinon," Lenore says, looking at his normal, formal, elven dress. She, herself, is in her usual dress: a black leather corsette, tight black leather pants, and thigh-high, fetish boots with buckle all up the sides. Her long, green hair now has blueish-silver roots, and is hanging, shining and loose at her waist.
"What's wrong with this?" Rinon asks, completely unaware of how he would be picked apart in a BIKER BAR for how he is dressed.
Lenore pinches the bridge of her nose and shakes her head. "This is a job for your fiancee and I, I think. . . ." she says. With that, she turns, and bellows, "KRISTA!"
Krista peeks out of her bedroom arching a brow, shaking her head she walks down to the first floor. She was in a black spandex spagatti top, a pair of cut off faded blue short shorts, and her knee high black boots "Wassup Leno-" she did finish her sentemce as she saw Rinon.
Gasping she looked down at her cloths that back to them "Lenore why didn't you warn me Rinon was coming....I would have change out of my cleaning clothes..."
"He'll see you in a worse state soon enough," Lenore says, waving her hand dismissively. "We've got bigger problems than the state of your dress. Rinon here," she starts to explain. "PLans to go and find our sister, whom tends bar in a biker club mind you, dressed like THAT."
Rinon looks thouroughly confused. "I don't see how the state of my dress is going to harm me any. . . ."
Lenore sighs and shakes her head. "They will kick you out on your a**, Rinon. . . ."
Krista arches a brow "She's right, I've been to them with Lenore. There no joke, you go into that place dress like that hun. They will kick your a** in a heart beat." she looks to Lenore "I gotta change then don't I, because there is no way I'm going into another biker club like this, I don't feel like kicking another guys a**." she blows a kiss to Rinon then races back up the stairs.
Within minutes she back downstairs wearing a dark blue corset fashion much like lenore, black leather pants and her boots, her curly orange blond hair is up in a ponytail. She walks over to Lenore and Rinon. She looks Rinon over before kissing his cheek "Just trust me and Lenore okay..."
Lenore grins wickedly. "Nyoka might have some things still here. Follow me to the basement, Rinon, Krista," she says.
"So," Rinon starts, following Lenore as she leads the way. "You're going to make me look like a woman?" he asks.
Lenore laughs a throaty, evil laugh. "Rinon, you have met my daughter. She dresses androgynous sometimes," she starts. "Half of her clothes, any man could wear without feeling too feminine," she explains, hurrying to the closet. "Come on, Kris," she chuckles as she throws open the closet doors. "I think you and I can figure something out. . . ."
Rinon sighs, and sinks onto Nyoka's old bed.
Krista smiles and walking over to the closet she looks through it until she pull out a black jacket, she looks to Rinon then giggles, She turns back to Lenore holding the jacket out "What do you think? Will this work for him?"
Lenore grins, and winks at her brother. "I think he will look smashing. What about this tank?" she pulls one of the black tanks out. "I'll have to do some stitching real fast," she says, "As Nyoka was well endowed, even at the teen stage of her life. And, well, dear Rinon," she giggles. "You lack the necessary anatomy. . . ."
She throws the tank toward Rinon, who catches it and looks at it. He pales considerably, quite a feat for a moon elf, let me tell you. . . . He sets the tank aside, and awaits more of the torture.
"Pants, pants. . . . and boots. . . . Maybe some chain belts?" Lenore mumbles almost to herself.
Krista stopped herself from laughing as she grabs a pair of black boots she likes and kicked them back toward Rinon. "Okay its gotta be leather pants...." she leans in and whipser to Lenore "Only because I'm curious as to what he would look like in them...." she keeps looking through Nyoka's belt collection.
Lenore keeps suprisingly calm, though she is giggling wickedly inside. "Eureka!" she exclaims when she finds a tight leather pants number in the back of the closet. Obviously, Nyoka realized she had major hips as well, thus the pants never had the tag removed. She shows them to Krista. "What do you think, Kris?" she asks, grinning, a manic sort of twinkle in her reptilian eyes.
Rinon supresses a groan when he sees the pants. He wears tights, yes, but how can one BREATHE in so much leather? And leather THAT tight, none the less? He suddenly wishes he were still grieving, really hard grief. Maybe his sister and his fiancee would not be torturing him so?
Krista looks at the pants and nods "Yes perfect" she grabs a few belts and holds them out "Think these will work?" she glances over and grabs some fingerless gloves and tosses them at Rinon "Here those should fit..." she keeps looking through the closet then smiles "I think that everything, except what about his hair...." she glances at Rinon before looking at Lenore "I mean I love it, but its not biker hair...." she turns and looks through Nyoka closet until she finds the tight fishnet top and pulls it over her head, she smiles "There that better..."
"I think that is everything," Lenore says, looking at Rinon thoughtfully. "There's the bathroom. Go and change while I look through some of Nyoka's potions. She's a genius. Instead of buying wigs, this girl figured a way to temporarily make her hair totally different," she says, pride deep in her voice. She points to the bathroom when Rinon doesn't move.
Grudgingly, Rinon stands, his clothing in his arms. He walks to the bathroom and closes the door. Lenore immediately goes to the potions.
"She labeled them all, help me look," she tells Krista. "I am thinking, big, rock star hair. . . . see ifyou find something close to it before me. . . ." she winks before going back to the potion labels.
RInon struggles into the tank. He immediately sees what Lenore was saying, as the top is loose around the chest area. Lenore said she would fix it though. . . . Pity, he thinks. Then, he tries his best to get the skin-tight pants on. His face is soon red from the effort, and he only has them half-way up his legs. He rests a little, catching his breath, before he tries again.
Krista looks through the potions, she giggles "Now I know where Aylana got the hair potion, I swear during her teenager times her hair was a different color every week." she pulls out a few that said rock star, one in green the other said gold then places them near Lenore "That all I have found, how about you?"
"Here, a red one goes with the color scheme better, don't you think?" Lenore asks, pulling the bottle down.
Just then, Rinon walks out, awkwardly, in full ensemble. Lenore whistles. "I look so-"
"Hot," Lenore interrupts. "Kris will have trouble keeping the women off of you," she says.
Krista looks over and her jaw drops. She doesn't know what to say, she looks at Lenore when she mentions women. She shakes her head and smiles "I think I won't have a problem keeping the women off of him...."
Lenore shakes her head, and tosses the potion to Rinon. When he catches it, she instructs, "Drink, and then meet me upstairs," with that, she turns and leaves the room to get her cloak.
Rinon looks at the vial skeptically, unsure if he should trust it, really. . . .
Krista walks ober and kisses him softly "Rinon it potions okay, trust me, Lenore wouldn't have allowed Nyoka to use it if it was bad..." she runs her finger along his jaw then winks "I'll see you upstairs..." she turns and leaves him going upstairs.
Krista looks at Lenore as she grabs her cloak "Mind telling me why were going after your sister?"
Rinon blinks after Krista. He stares at the potion again, for a good five minutes, before he pops the cork, and drinks the contents of the vial. Nyoka was meticulous in her vials. She only put enough for one serving.
Meanwhile, Lenore is studying Krista. "Rinon didn't tell you?" she asks, frowning. With a little show of sadness in her eyes, she says, "His father died. We need to find Ximena, so that we can tell her. . . ."
Krista covered her mouth and looked away, she didn't know what to say "I...maybe I should stay here, this is a family thing Lenore." she looks back to her "I'll just be in the way..." she looks away suddenly feeling bad that she was slightly picking on him downstairs.
Rinon closes his eyes as he feels the potion work. His hair is getting shorter, he can feel it. When he is sure it is over, he doesn't even look in the mirror. He starts for the stairs.
Lenore shakes her head. "Listen to me, Rinon will want you there. I am no good for him, and I will be dealing with Ximena. Besides, you are the closest thing to family, besides my parents, I have had. You are GOING to be a more solid part of this family. You have every right to be there. . . ."
Rinon enters the room then, seemingly too much into his own misery to have heard anything that has been said. "I suppose I am ready. As ready as I am ever going to be," he says, looking to both women.
Krista nods before sighing as she pulls at her corset top that was slipping under the fishnet shirt. She looks over when she hears Rinon voice, before looking away, she didn't want him to see the sadness in her eyes. She knew that would only make thing worse. Looking at Lenore she nods "I'll be outside waiting...." she turns and slips outside.
"I guess this means that she does not like this side of me," Rinon quips, laughing a little nervously. "Did I do something to upset her, Lenore?"
Lenore smiles reassuringly, and places her hand on his shoulder. "No, Rinon. I told her," she says.
"You. . . did?" Rinon asks, a little nonplussed.
"She is having reservations about going," Lenore says honestly. "Come on, she'll be fine. Let's get outside, and we can all go the club."
Rinon nods, and follows Lenore out the door. She hurries to Krista. "We're going. It will be easier if you take my hand. I know where it is. . . ." She smiles to Krista. "You know, we want you there. We do need you with us."
Rinon walks up behind Lenore. "Are you ready, Krista?" he asks, smiling at her.
Krista looks at them both before smiling alittle and nodding "Yea I'm ready..." she looks back down at the groundbiting her bottom lip.

Lenore sighs, and takes Krista's hand. Once she places her hand on Rinon's shoulder, they immediately transport themselves to the bar.
"Deep breaths, lady and gent," Lenore says, smiling. "Hold your head high, and for the sake of the gods, Rinon, look like you have a backbone," she jokes.
Without waiting for either of them, Lenore enters the bar, looking every bit the tough biker as she can, which is pretty close.
Rinon offers his arm to Krista, and manages a smile at her. "I won't go in without you on my arm, m'lady," he says softly. "Be my strength tonight? These men look scary. I think I see some Drow, which scares me greatly. . . ." he is still smiling, though the Drow DO make him uneasy.
Krista looks at Rinon and smiles taking his hand instead "Don't worry nothing will happen to you I promise..." she kisses him softly then pulls back before pulling him into the bar with him, she took a deep breath and tries not to gag from the smoke. She was still not use to the smoke even after her teenager years.
Lenore doesn't mind the smell. She's too busy scouring the bar for Ximena.
"Have you found her yet?" Rinon asks over the loud music in the bar when he is next to her.
"No, not yet," Lenore admits. Then, she smiles. A moment later, she is laughing. This is too RICH! She shakes her head at the clothing that Ximena is wearing. Lenore watches her as she talks to some of hte patrons as she makes her rounds between the tables.
"I don't believe it," she says, in a half-whisper. "Well, there she is. . . ."
Krista arches a brow wondering what got Lenore to laugh, she follows Lenore keeping close to Rinon, she groaned as they pass a guy who she knew was watching her every move. She closed her eyes trying to keep herself under control. All she need was to start feeling trapped.
Rinon squeezes Krista's hand, and then leans forward to kiss her cheek. He smiles at her before he starts for Ximena.
"Come on, love," Lenore says, putting her arm around Krista's shoulders. "I'll protect you. We'll go and chat with Ximena as well. She needs someone to lash out to, and I am the closest thing to the most hated person in her world," she winks, and starts to steer Krista in Ximena's direction.
Ximena looks up when she hears the approach of her brother and sister. She narrows her eyes at both of them, and tosses the long, loose ponytail over her shoulder. She walks over to them, her short/capri combo swishing a little with her movements. "What are the two of you doing here?" she hisses to them.
"Ximena, I wouldn't have come if this were not important," Rinon says, pushing the puffy, red hair behind his ears. "It's about our father. . . ."
"What about him?" Ximena asks.
Rinon sighs. "He died," he says, thinking bluntness the best route.
Ximena blinks, and takes a step back. Her eyes roll back in her head, and she starts falling. Before she can hit the ground, Lenore has her in her arms. "I think we should get her back to the manor. Kris, you can get Rinon there. . . ." with that, she disappears.
Krista watches as Lenore disappears, she looks around the room feeling very trapped. She closes her eyes then reopens them, her eyes alittle darker. "Can we get out of here please, and get some air, I'm not liking this place at all...." she wraps her arms around his waist hiding her face in his chest. She tried to steady her breathing but the smoke was getting to her badly to the point she started coughing.
Lenore sets Ximena on the couch before returning to the club. Lenore takes Rinon's hand and holds her hand out to Krista. "I forgot," she says, smiling sheepishly. "Let's go then. . ."
Krista loosk back and takes Lenore hand nodding her thank you as she cover her mouth. She coughs again and keeps her eyes closed. All she wanted to do was to get away from the men who wanted to take her home that night.
They are all in the manor again, and are greeted by both Emme and Faene. "Cold water, a hand towel, and some pillows," Lenore orders, immediately dropping the hands.
"I didn't think she would take it so hard," Rinon says, a little guiltily. "If I had, I think I would have told her more gently. . . ."
"It's not your fault," Lenore says. "No one knew she would react that way. She'll be fine in a few minutes. . . . When she wakes up, she'll have her old fire again."
Krista pulls away from them all and walks outside. Falling to her kneels she breaths in the fresh air and purrs alittle. She reaches up and pulls her hair out of it ponytail. She was almost half tempted to remove all her clothes just because she still felt trapped in them.
She looks around then looks back to the house, once she sure they are busy with Rinon sister she smiles and removing her clothes she shapeshifts to her black panther form and takes off running across the field. She lays in the Field looking around, she forgot how free she felt in this form, she looks back toward the house debating to go back of enjoy the freedom alittle while longer.

Lenore tends to Ximena, while Rinon goes to change. It isn't too long after he gets back that Ximena starts to stir.
Lenore leans forward, and whispers an address into her ear. When Ximena opens her eyes, the purple orbs fall right on Lenore.
"Where the ******** did you take me?" she asks, sitting up slowly.
"My home," Lenore says, a little shortly, as she stands and takes the bowl full of water to the table across the room.
"Well, I don't want to be here," Ximena says, getting ready to stand up.
"Ximena," Rinon says in a terse manner. "Do you not remember what I told you?"
"I ******** remember, alright?" Ximena says, turning her burning eyes over toward Rinon. "And I don't believe you."
Krista after a few minutes races back towards the home, she peeks into the house before looking around the house. she races back toward her balcony and leaps up the side of the housebefore landing on her balcony.
Transforming back to her human form she slips inside her room and goes through her closet before pulling out a long skirt and a button up blue shirt. She slips them on then her blue slipper before walking down the stair. She stop when she hears voices and takes a seat hidden on the stairs.
"He's dead, Ximena," Rinon says, anger flashing in his eyes now. "I wouldn't lie about something like that."
"Maybe before, but now?" Ximena asks, looking between him and Lenore. "But since you started hanging out with Little Miss Perfect, here, I am not so sure."
Lenore merely ignores Ximena, for now. This is something she senses Rinon will want to take care of.
And, he does. He pulls a folded piece od paper out od his pocket and unfolds it. He brandishes the midnight blue paper in Ximena's face, the silver ink twinkling a little in the light of the room. "Look! The official letter I recieved from home! Tell me I am lying now," he throws it at Ximena and turns his back on her, taking a few calming steps away from her.
Ximena looks a little stunned, and watches the paper float to the floor. After a few moments, she bends over and picks it up.
Krista pulls her knees up to her chest, she closes her eyes listening to it all. Man she wanted to go down there but again she felt like she wasn't suppose to. It was part of that family, and even if Lenore says it, she not part of that family yet.
She sighs to herself and pushes her hair back as she continue to listen.
Ximena looks over the letter. When she is done reading it, she crumples it in her fist, and then sinks back onto the couch. She looks over at Rinon, her eyes softer than Lenore has seen them before. "I'm sorry, Rinon."
"He was your father too," Rinon says, still with his back turned to her.
"I am aware of that, Rinon," Ximena says, a hard tone in her voice. "Don't think I don't ******** care. He was my father, yes, but I didn't exactly see much of him, did I? He was always out, because of that weak woman you call mother."
Rinon tenses visibly. He doesn't say anything for a long while. When he speaks, his voice is exually as hard as Ximena's, another suprise to Lenore. "I'm going to the kitchen," he says suddenly, so far off the topic, that Lenore is left blinking after his departing frame.
"Oh, you're a right piece of work, Ximena," Lenore says, turning to her and speaking for the first time since Ximena awoke. "I don't know him as well as you do, but you should damn well see that he is hurting."
"I can't bring that . . . his father back," Ximena says. "What do you want me to do."
"Act like a sister," Lenore says, skaking her head at Ximena.
Krista stands and walks down the stairs slowly, she leans against the wall looking at Ximena. She was halt tempted to say something but didn't.
Walking over she takes a seat next to Ximena and just looks at her. "I would give anything right now to take the pain you have gone through your whole life. Really I would, you seem like a good person just misunderstood....I'm sorry about what happen to your father..." she glances at the floor "I know you like acting tough, but don't you feel alittle sad? I mean at least your father was somewhat in your life as was your mother, for that your lucky..."
Ximena blinks at Krista. "Who the ******** are you? To think that you can come and talk to me like I am some long lost friend?"
Lenore hisses, exhasperatedly, in the snake tongue as she closes her eyes and pinches the bridge of her nose. "She's MY best friend, Ximena. And if you don't want to be cursed out of my home, I suggest you show some respect to her."
Ximena laughs, mirthlessly. "Whatever, Lenore. By the way, who are YOU to talk to me about being a sister? Weren't you the one calling all of us loonies when we first made contact with you."
"Don't," Lenore says, holding up a warning hand. "Don't you DARE, Ximena. That is completely different."
"Really?" Ximena asks.
Enough!" Rinon says from the hallway. He is holding a glass of wine in his hand. "Krista," he says, looking at her with a small, sad smile. "I appreciate you trying to reason with my sister, to reach out to her. But, I am afraid that it might be a lost cause where she is concerned."
Ximena throws her hands into the air. "Oh, I see. We have come to the part of the evening when I am spoken about as though I am not here."
Krista looks at them both "Lenore don't and Rinon she not a lost cause, and please don't talk like she not here..." Krista turn to look at Ximena "Um can we talk please? We can go outside if you like, so you can smoke...whatever you want to do. Its up to you, I just wanna get to know you if that okay...."
She looks to Lenore and Rinon hoping they can trust her, she could somewhat understand where Ximena was comign from because of everything with her parents.
Ximena laughs, in a very sarcastic way, and looks at Krista as though she is crazy. "Sorry, I think I will skip the share-fest. Thanks all the same." She stands and pulls her cigarettes out of her pocket, and hurries out the door, saluting everyone in a mocking way before closing the door.
Lenore shakes her head, and stands to go to the kitchen. She wants a drink more than anything, but she supposes she can just smell it. . . .
Rinon looks at Krista. "I'm sorry for her behavior," he says softly. "It was very thoughtful of you to offer your ear to her. . . ."
Krista watches Ximena leave before looking down at the ground. She sighs and shakes her head, her hair falling around her face. "Its okay, its my fault, I should have just stayed out of it. She your sister, I just...I know what it feels like to be someone elses shadow..."
She pulls her legs up to her chest and buries her face in her knees and sighs shaking her head. "She not all that bad...."

"It's not your fault, it's no ones fault," Rinon says gently. He puts an arm around her shoulders, comfortingly. "And, no, Ximena is not bad at all. You just have to. . . . Well, she needs her space right now, I think. Maybe you can try again later, if you ever feel like it?"
XImena takes a long drag of her cigarette. She blows the smoke out and closes her eyes, letting her head fall back. A tear slowly winds its way down her cheek. She doesn't feel it until it lands on her bare shoulder. "********," she says, wiping at it hastily.
She walks toward the forest, steadily smoking her cigarette down. She doesn't know it, but someone is following her.
Lenore feels her, and her eyes snap open. She had been leaning against the counter, her eyes closed, a bottle of elven wine under her nose. She almost drops it, but she catches it in time. 'She's never this close to the manor. . . .' she thinks. Without saying a word, she tears out of the kitchen, through the living room where Rinon and Krista are, and slams the door open. She leaps into the air, riding the wind a little, before landing again.
Her first thought is that she is hungry, and is looking for one of her family members to feed on. 'That's not going to happen!' she thinks, leaping into the air again, following her blood-link.
Krista leans close to Rinon, letting her relax against him. She breathed in slowly glad to have Rinon at her side. She was so rattled right now with everything that has happen she didn't know if she could deal with it all. "I'll try again, when she cools off..."
Her eyes snap open as she hears the door slam open, she sits up straight then looks around wondering where Lenore had gone off to. She looks to Rinon and smiles before pushing him backward onto the the couch. She looked down at him and smiles "You know that outfit you had on earlier didn't look all that bad.."
Rinon blink and blushes at Krista's push, and her words. "I . . . er. . ." he says, laughing a little. "Well, I felt like an idiot," he admits. Nope, he would probably never be wearing that outfit ever again. . . .
He reaches up to brush Krista's hair out of her face.
Ximena drops her cigarette on the floor and crunches it out. She wraps her arms around her chest, looking around.
Lenore lands not far from Ximena, and right next to Dysis. "What are you doing here?" she asks, looking up at the one who changed her.
Dysis simply smiles. "I hunger," she says softly.
"Not for my sister," Lenore says, a little intimidated still by the ancient.
Dysis shrugs.
Krista smiles and twisting her head alittle she kisses his hand lightly then looks at him. "No you didn't, you'll never look like an idiot to me.." she leans down and kisses his blushing cheeks then pulls back looking inot his eyes. "But you'll always look cute when you blush"
Rinon blushes deeper and her smiles again. "The same goes for you, melamin," he says softly.
Ximena's ear twitches a little when she hears a familiar voice. She turns and looks around. She doesn't SEE anyone, but her curiousity is getting the better for her.
Then again, it really might not be her curiousity. . . .
"Dysis, please, not her," Lenore says. As much as she seems to hate Ximena, she doesn't want to see her sister changed into what she is. "We'll hunt in the city together, just leave her be. . . ."
"My love, my child," Dysis reaches down and caresses Lenore's cheek. "You have been avoiding me. Shunning me, it would seem. Why should I grant you this small favor?"
Ximena emerges from the tree, and sees Lenore and the woman she has never seen before. The caress looks like a lover's, and Ximena jumps to the only conclusion that she can. "So, Lenore, did you and Eirnae decide to steal away from the kids for a bit? A steamy rendevous in the woods?" she rolls her eyes.
Lenore shakes her head, still staring up in Dysis' eyes. She grabs the
vampiress's wrist and looks at her pleadingly.
Rinon shiftsd a little, and wraps his arms around Krista. "Er, not to change the subject, but did you want to discuss the wedding?" Rinon is a very old-fashioned kind of man. And, he is afraid of what he might allow himself to do should Krista keep kissing him in such a manner. . . .
Krista runs her finger along his neck smiling "Only if you want to Rinon.." she looks at him biting her bottom lipas she trail her finger along his bottom lip. She smiles before tilting her head to the side before curiousity hit her.
She leans closer and lightly bite at the bottom of Rinon's ear then pulls back looking at him. "Me in that outfit, no way, I looked foolish, its not me, I mean I know how to dress sexy, but I felt like I was exposed...."
Rinon smiles, ignoring the evil little sensations that creep down his back when Krista goes for his oh-so-sensitive ears. "I meant that you look good an anything, that you would never look like an idiot to me, either," he pokes her nose.
"Well, what has always been your dream when you think of your wedding day?" he asks her.
"Ximena, this isn't Eirnae," Lenore says.
"Stepping out on your woman?" Ximena asks, taking a few steps toward her. She clicks her tongue and shakes her head, both in a disapproving manner.
"Lenore and I have a very complicated relationship, stranger," Dysis says, her voice very intoxicating.
So much so, Ximena has to shake her head. "Gotcha. . . ." she says, though her face shows her confusion well.
"Ximena, come back to the manor with me," Lenore says, taking a step toward her now. "The forest is not safe at night."
"I'm not going anywhere with you," Ximena says, taking another cigarette out.
Krista smiles and runs her finger along his ear, she knew every elf had highly sensitive ears. "You've never seen me in a pink dress, now that a scary picture...."
She stops to think for a moment then shakes her head "What I thought my wedding would be can never happen, at least part of it. But I do know where I want it to be....There a rumor of this mystic garden and lake out in the forest...if I could find it, then I would want to be married there...In a gown that is a crystal blue like the lake itself...."
Rinon smiles. "Done," he said. "I'll help you look, if you want? It sounds like the perfect place. . . ." he pauses a moment. "Maybe one of the centaurs or the elves in the woods would know?"
Then, he grins almost wickedly. "I'd like to see you in a pink dress. . . ."
Dysis takes Lenore's hand. "There is nothing to be afraid of, my love," she tells her.
"Stop it," Lenore says, not looking at Dysis. It would all be over if she did. She wrenches her wrist free, tackles Ximena, and disapparates back to the manor.
There is a crash in the kitchen, caused by the two women smashing into the fridge, and knocking off some of the pots on top of it.
Krista purrs and smiles "The only way you'lls see me in a pink dress is one, you put me in it, two you wear the leather outfit again, and three you take that dress off of me...because I don't wear pink." she stops and turns bright red when she realizes what she just said, she looks at Rinon before hiding her face behind her hands.
She nearly falls off the couch when she hears the crash, she looks toward the kicthen "What the heck?" she leaps off the couch and runs toward the kitchen door opening it, she looks at Lenore and Ximena arching a brow "Um okay what happen?"
Rinon was blushing again. BEFORE the crash, that is. He runs after Krista, nearly knocking her over when she stops. He doesn't know what to say when he sees the scene before him. Lenore and Ximena, groaning a little, on the hard floor of the kitchen, limbs tangled together.
"I caught Lenore cheating on her fiancee," Ximena groans.
Lenore hisses again, and kicks Ximena, though not as hard as she would have liked to. Ximena glares at Lenore. "It's not my fault you are not a one woman girl. . . ."
Krista looked at Lenore, she didn't know what to say to Lenore. She looks at Rinon "Mine taking care of Ximena, I have to talk to Lenore...." she doesn't even wait as she grabs ahold of Lenore hand and pulls her away from Ximena then vanishes.
They reappear in her room, she looks at Lenore "Please tell me your sister is lying and your not cheating on Eirnae?" she was serious, she loves Lenore but she would truely be pissed if she was.
Lenore shakes her head, and looks at Krista through narrowed eyes. "That offends me, it really does," she replies, turning her back to Krista. "I would never do that to Eirnae. She is my forever, even long after she is dead and gone and I am still cursed to walk this wretched earth," she says the last softly. "Dysis was close to the house. That's why I ran out of here. She never comes close to the manor. . . ." Lenore is not sure if she has told Krista about Dysis living in the forest, and that she is the one that changed her.
Rinon looks at Ximena as she stands. "I hope you are not trying to cause trouble, Ximena," he says.
Ximena shrugs, and then kicks at one of the pots on the floor angrily. "Oh, so precious, perfect Lenore doesn't have any weaknesses? Let's face it, her fiancee has been gone for ages, she probably hasn't got laid since even before then. You do the math."
"Must you be so crude?" Rinon says, looking at Ximena disgustedly.
Krista walks over and hugs Lenore "I'm sorry Lenore, I didn't mean to offend you. I just, you know me I'm looking out for both of you...." she smiles and hugs her again then tilts her head "Dysis around the place....what she looking for Lenore?" she wasn't scared but she did fear this Dysis.
Krista smiles then bites her bottom lip "Lenore, do you think...it would be proper if um.....Rinon stayed the night.....nothing will happen, but after everything that happen..." she blushes and looks away.
"She's hungry," Lenore says, ominously. "She's an ancient, she doesn't need to feed as often as I do. Apparently, she's looking for her next meal. I'll stay up the night. . . ."
She then waves her hand dismissively. "You have amazing self-restraint, sis. Eirnae and I were pretty much attatched to the bed when she was home," she stops abruptly. Shaking her head, she continues. "I wasn't going to let them leave, anyway. I'll go and tell Emme to prepare a room for Ximena." She forces a smile and says, in a forced-cheerful voice. "Now that this is all settled, lets go and tell our guests they are not to leave for the night."
Krista smiles and nods laughing "Trust me I live in the same house, I knew when Eirnae was home, we never saw you......" she winks then pops out of the room.
She reappears in the living room "Hey Rinon think I could talk to you...." she pushes her hair out of her face then looks around waiting for Lenore.
Lenore isn't far behind. She winks at Krista before walking over to Ximena. "I'm afraid you can't leave tonight."
"Why the hell not?" her sister asks, rather rudely.
"Dysis, the woman you saw me with in the forest," Lenore says. "She's a vampire. If I hadn't stopped her, you would be dead right now."
Ximena pales, just a little though. "Whatever," she says.
Feeling a little vindictive, for Ximena casting doubt on her love for Eirnae, even if it was just a small shadow, she looks at Ximena's outfit appraisingly. "By the way, that wouldn't happen to be an outfit from the new line, Snake, would it?" she asks.
"Yeah, so what?" Ximena says, looking at Lenore suspiciously.
"Snake, that clothing line," Lenore says with a small, satisfied smile. "That's MY clothing line," she relishes in the small emphasis on 'my.'
Ximena blinks, dumbstruck. It should matter to her, not really. It is only clothing. Designed by a woman that she has hated almost all of her life. But, suddenly, the clothes, as little as there is, feel so heavy.
Satified, and with a wicked grin and twinkle in her eye, Lenore nods. "Emme will show you to your room. I have a long night ahead of me. Goodnight, everyone," with that, Lenore leaves the room.
Krista covered her mouth not to laugh "I'll have to get some of those clothes, I really do like them..." she looks to Rinon "Could I show you to your room?" she smiles before walking toward the stairs.
Rinon IS grinning. He doesn't care, he liked that last verbal slap that Lenore got in. It served his sister right, even if this is a hard time for her. "Yes, you can, melamin," he says.
Krista smiles and takes his hand leading him up the stairs to the third floor. She stops right outside the far door and turns to him. She bites her bottom lip and she opens the door and steps aside revealing her room to him.
((We'll let you guess what happen next blaugh ))
