  "There we go dyas..." Raken spoke softly, tying up her othe pigtail after bathing the child and brushing her hair to a fine sheen. He was thinking of taking her out for the day, a quick run around the island to have her better aquainted with the geography. Then he could go into their newest subject, Naiad'o'logy, after just completing the extinct Aions history. Maybe if she was really good, he was hoping afterwards they could branch off into biology or the like. Dyas remained completely still as her father finished up with her hair, offering a tiny smile of thanks to him. He had talked of going outside earlier, and not for training! She couldn't wait.

  Azure carried Trager as he walked towards nowhere in particular. It was a beautiful day out, and he thought Trager would enjoy playing outside. The scenery around him looked vaguly familiar. "Ugh, Trager, you're getting so heavy." Azure grunted as he adjusted Trager so that her weight was more evenly distributed. He was still very tired of carrying her though. When they were close to the entrance of a familiar looking cave Azure set Trager down. "I need to take a break, then we'll find someplace for you to play, alright?"Trager pursed her lips as she bounced up and down on Azure's waist. This was not the funnest form of transportation. Azure was constantly moving her around and putting her in positions that were uncomfortable for her to sit in. The teenage boy had no idea how to hold her. Trager would prefer to walk, but her tiny legs would take her nowhere next to Azure. "Why not we stop, play here?" Trager asked Azure curiously as she looked around the area. The cave nearby looked kind of spooky but Trager wondered what was inside.

He gently picked up the child, lifting her up to plop her onto his shoulders. "Ready?" Her smile only widened as she was picked up, tiny fingers embedding themselves into her fathers silver hair. She nodded happily, even though she knew he couldn't see it. "Alright Dyas. Hold on tightly." He walked towards the exit, eyes blinking to adjust to the light of the sun and not the light of the glow worms. Did...did he just hear voices up ahead?

Azure nodded his head and got down on his knees so that he was at Trager's height. "Alright, alright. That's fine. If you want to play here we can. What do you want to play?" Azure asked Trager. He noticed her eyes were on the cave so he turned his head to look over his shoulder. Azure could see the silhouette of what appeared to be an extremly tall Pae'il standing at the entrance. He squinted his eyes to see if he could get a better look, but it didn't help.
"Azure... hello..." Trager said as she waved her hands in front of her trying to get his attention. "We play." Trager demanded. When Azure's attention was back at her she looked around at her settings. " I hide, we play" Trager spoke as she stood up ready to run off and hide once Azure gave her the word.

"Azure." He caught the name from the little pink toddler, walking out into the sunlight now. Wasn't he that...it couldn't be... Dyas' face lit up brighter then a lightning bug, one hand lifting from her fathers hair to wave at the blue pae. He...was bigger then she remembered. A lot bigger. But she smiled all the same. He had come back to her. Thats what mattered.

Azure could hear the faintest whisper of his name coming from the voice of a male. He quickly whirled around on the spot to see the same silhouette from before, except now it was more clear. Azure could see the young girl who he would never forget about, "Dyas!" Azure shouted as he quickly stood up, completely forgetting about the dislike he had felt coming from her father the last time that they had met. If he had remembered he probably wouldn't have shouted out her name like that. Azure smiled and waved at Dyas as he stood up.
Trager glared in the direction of which the two Pae'il were standing. "Azure..." she whined. "Who dat? Who dat Azure?" she crossed her arms and wobbled her way up to standing next to Azure. Trager tugged on Azure's leg. "You said we play... you said... you said..." she looked up at Azure with a pouty face.

No. It couldn't...all doubt dissapeared as he shouted his girls name. Rakens eyes narrowed ever so slightly. He had grown. When had dyas grown into a child? A while ago. She'd be a teen soon herself. Teens. He glanced up at the girl on his head, practically falling off from leaning so far forwards. The demonic sighed and walked towards the blue and pink pae. "Long time no see..." 'you said we play.' The words registered and he lightly smiled. "Good to see you again, though it looks like you're busy. We'll leave you be." He DID remember her! She smiled a bit more as they walked forwards, hand dropping back to her fathers hair. And he was letting her see him too! He was........oh. She deeply sighed. Nope. Same old dad.

Azure was surprised. Was Raken actually being polite to him? Maybe since he was older now he had more respect for Azure. Azure puffed up his chest a little bit proud of his accomplishment. "Oh no, I'm not busy. I was just going to play with my little sister here, but I don't think she'd mind if Dyas joined us." Azure looked down at Trager who was still tugging impatiently on his leg, he smiled down and picked her up. "A game would be more fun if Dyas joined us, don't you think?" Azure asked Trager, taking a deep breath.
Trager squirmed in Azure's arms, she had not wanted to be picked up. She just wanted to start playing her game. Trager stared at the older girl, still perched on Raken's shoulder. She finally stopped moving to investigate Dyas curiosly. "I guess..." Trager finally said, looking from Dyas to Raken. "I hide." She told Azure as if it was set in stone that only she was allowed to hide.

He shook his head, still smiling lightly. "Possibly, but this is a perfect oppertunity for you to bond with your sister. Its this stage which will have you as the one person she will respect if she turns out hating everyone else when older." His proof? Amara. His motive? Keep Dyas away from him. "Though it was...nice...to meet you." this he spoke to the pink girl. "Say goodbye now Dyas." Did...she have to? The smile faded, dual colored eyes sad as she slowly raised a hand again to wave bye. Well...at least she knew he remembered her. That was good. Maybe she'd see him again when he was an adult. That was...sorta a nice thought

Azure shook his head from side to side. "That's alright, we have had a lot of time to bond, but she hasn't really gotten to meet any other Pae and I would love if she became friends with my best friend." Azure smiled at Raken, totally oblivious to the fact that Raken was trying to get rid of him. "Dyas, this is my little sister, Trager. Trager, this is my best friend Dyas." Azure said introducing the child and the toddler to one another.
Trager didn't say anything against what Azure had mentioned, but she was listening to him and rather deep in her thoughts. She turned her attention to Raken, studying how he acted. He didn't seem to like being around them from what she could see. Trager deceided not to tell Azure though. "Hi Dyas..." Trager said politely to the older girl.

Best...friend. Twitch. The demonic reached up and took dyas off of his shoulders to hold in his arms only to crouch down infront of trager. Always had to instill good manners. No matter how much he wanted to just walk away. Instantly knowing what her father was doing, she extended a hand for the smaller girl to shake, offering the tiniest of smiles. Mentally she was urging Azure, the male stalling her father to have her spend a bit more time with him. She was mute, not stupid. Her dad wanted to bolt the moment he could.

Trager stared at the hand outreached to her blankly. Why was this girl shoving her hand in front of her? Trager took Dyas' hand with both of hers and turned it over, and moved it up and down and from side to side curiously. Was there some trick to this? Trager looked away from Dyas' hand to Azure, looking for any sort of help he'd offer her.
Azure laughed. "You're close Trager, you're supposed to shake her hand." Azure adjusted put a hand on Trager's and helped her hold onto Dyas' hand and shake it up and down. "That's how you say hello without words." He told her helpfully. "Have you been doing good Dyas?" Azure asked his younger friend.

Dyas blinked at the small girl as she moved her hand about like it was the most interesting thing on the island. Was...she like this when a toddler? She smiled at Azure as he helped Trager out, nodding. Dyas then slipped her hand out from the girls to wrap her arms around azure in a hug while he was still level with her. He got a special hi He sort of stared at his daughter as she hugged the male, honestly surprised. Dyas...normally didn't do that. Only when she or he was upset. Or when she was really tired and he was taking her to bed. Raken pulled his blue eyes from the purple child to fix on the pink. "...Raken." How did he suddenly feel out of place?

Azure hugged Dyas back and then pulled back, "Its really good to see you again Dyas. I've missed you." Azure said honestly. Trager was starting to get heavy on his arms again since he had been carrying her around so much. "Do you want to play with us Dyas. I think we were about to play hide and seek. You can join us." Azure mentioned as he leaned over to set Trager back down. He quickly stood up straight and glanced at Raken half-looking for his approval but not really needing it.
Trager looked at the man when she heard him speak. "Raken" she repeated. Although that seemed like a funny word to her since she hadn't noticed that was his name. "Dyas play" Trager agreed since Azure was right. The more people the better "he play" Trager pointed at Raken, she was curious about him and she wanted him to play too. Trager sighed as she was set back down on the ground.

He shook his head to trager. "No, I don't play....Dyas don't play either. We have a previous engagement that we got to get to. It was...pleasent to see you both thought."She had started to nod her head slowly to playing when her father spoke again. She looked at both her best friend and her potential new friend, wincing. If she could, she would start to cry at this point, feeling helpless without a voice to stop this. But raken didn't like it when she cried.
