Armageddon wasn't expecting the snow region to blow over the way of the graveyard this early in winter. Chi had told him to come home soon for a visit for this holiday called 'Christmas'. Well he wasn't one for many get togethers. Look at him- a gravedigger with almost nothing to be so bright about. Maybe except for his family. The one who he cared for.
Armageddon was establishing flowers in the patch that Morgana came to grow so fond of. An assortment of flowers... He poured the last bit of soda that he felt in the bucket... "Mm" He nodded as he finished. Not expected that Yoru would come and help him to pick some ripe flowers for graves. Ah, he hoped that someday this gap will end- but at the same time... he would go on as if nothing were happening.
Yoru was out and about- looking up at the fact that the snow was coming in... A little but he could feel it minorly getting cold. "The flowers here will freeze over. Might have to put a blanket." He sighed- inside his greenhouse which he made himself- somewhat. Not knowing that his father act usually helped when Yoru passed out those nights. It would always seem to get done faster. Yoru slowly pulled up the blanket over the flowers as he said he would. Then petting and looking at the small sakura petal that came from his only Sakura tree he was able to plant. Cherishing it- also trying to figure out a way to plant more. So when his mother and sister came. He could impress them or at least for a gift from him.
"I'll be seeing you then. Later." he gave a quint smirk as he turned and headed for the door, in taking a small plant he put in a pot. Taking it back to the house [ the stoned building ] - knowing that, that species of plant couldn't survive harsh winters. He nodded accepting the responsibility. He was hoping, that in some way. He could relive each day in a memory and that never happened. He wanted his mother to smile kindly at him- and his sister to come around and play with her high energy. He wanted that, and with living without them for so long. He had grown to almost loose that energy and the smile he once had. He came in through the door. Not expecting to find 'father' around. He didn't come home often.. since he'd just pass out like a big lump all the time outside the house. Or he could have forgotten to come at all without his mother around. What would be his reason?
He walked in to look up. To see the place where he and Meian slept. Her side with every little glowing piece of a thing that she could find. She hid it and decorated her side with. Light sticks. Everything that had a glow to it- but.. now they were dimmed and lost their glow. Hoping that didn't happen to her. Shaking his head, he slowly went to his side of the room. Everything that had to do with plants. He sat there and put the new place there. Watching... sternly at their places when they were young. He kept it neat and tidy. He did the same with his mother's stuff. It was EXACTLY as they left it and even kept maintenance.

As the chilly wind gently blew over and around the graveyard, the clouds parted, revealing the full moon, its soft light seeming to glow a bit more brightly then before. Singing suddenly seemed to be coming with the wind and the sound of light as air wings could be heard fluttering above.
Morgana soon landed in the graveyard, still singing, still looking the same as ever, a little emotionless, but a happiness evident in her eyes at finally being back home. Another voice soon joined hers, this one feminine, but more light and airy as well.
Meian followed after her mother, singing her song along with her, always enjoying singing with her. She landed beside her and twirled about happily, memories of the graveyard finally coming back and bringing back a smile, the glow of her moons growing brighter as the actual moon itself.

Armageddon kept at the flower tending... his fins caught something. Singing? His head lifted, his unkept hair over his right eye. Turning to the left in which the song came from. Morgana? He thought but then he heard a softer voice.. Mixing... Was this a dream? He had many like this. Hearing Morgana's song. Memories passing by his eyes in flashes. Haunting... His heart sank. He did wake this morning. He couldnt have been having a day dream. But he always hoped she would just come out of no where. He looked away... his fins slicking down to his neck- almost disappearing in his long hair and mane.
"Oh... Morgana.. You are missed here." He strayed his lingering words... "Meian." He shook his head and softly touched the petals of one of the flowers. "Why does my memories torture me." He asked the flower.. Hm. He put a smirk over his maw. "A sweet torture it is.." He curled his rump around the flowers and his tail curled around it.
His fins letting the songs seep through his formed body.
After not very long. He got up... looking at the plant he set. "I must go get Zuko and Eloraine." He sighed. The two fish. One that was his father's and the other that was his friend from birth.
Its pelt the same color as his pattern. He could relate... somehow. Leaving them in the cemetery to roam might not be a good idea. From what he thought. His body now much larger than his kit body... Looking like his mother, though without the harsh past. His pattern much more formed and defined. His silky black hair waved as he turned around and left from the house. Going deeper in to the cemetery- through the old place where him and Meian played. That is where he planted the Sakura tree to show mother and Meian. As he followed the path to the tree- Zuko and Elora were there. Zuko telling his stories about Arma. How they met, and all. Elora turned as she saw her master. 'friend'. "YORU-KUN!" She squeeked and flew over to him. Being half dead enabled her this. Almost as if she were a ghost like Zuko.
She flew around him and curled herself in to his fur. "I thought you forgot about us.. and Zuko was going on about your father." Her black emotionless eyes at Yoru. Her pelt blendig in except for her pattern. Yoru sighed. "Lets go home.. Zuko-." Zuko's face went even more pale... his pelt shimmering of rot. "Morgana." He stopped everything and flew past them. Yoru looking back. "Hm?" His red orbs following after Zuko's flash flight. Elora blinked and watched him. "Yoru-ku" Before she finished Yoru started scampering after Zuko. Pondering why Zuko would call his mother's name.

Morgana continued to sing her haunting song for the dead, her voice becoming a bit louder as she wandered to the angel headstone she had first perched on the second time she had come to the graveyard and the second time she had saw her love, Arma. She did not stop her song, wanting her mate and her son to respond to her, to finally come to her.
Meian continued to sing along with her mother, but she lowered her voice, knowing her brother and her father would recognize her mothers voice more quickly then her own. Instead she decided to dance among the graves themselves, giggling to herself, her glow almost making her look ghost light.

Armageddon then realized... The voice was unmistakenable. It felt to real... His body lifted as he took up the flower in his paw- slipping it behind his ear.
His hind legs grasped the ground as he made his way toward the sweet voice~ the place where light and darkness skipped its leave. That same place he saw her~ his love... His steps became many as he reached the finest figure. The wind blew against the rightest way and the moon shown its perfect stature. His tail swirled to his side and lifted behind him as the figure was now in front of him. He examined every feature [ And I don't wanna miss a thing~ Cause even when I dream again~ The sweetest dream will never do I still miss you babe and I don't wanna miss a thing- I dont miss one smile, I dont wanna miss one kiss~ I just wanna hold you close~ ] He looked up at her.. His heart started to throb against his chest cavity. He had felt longing and feelings he had never without her and now to see a ghost of her... It almost seemed as real. [ As he thought it wasn't possible that she could be here right in front of him ]
His maw smoothly released the words. "My... sweetest Torture." Even if it was a ghost- imagenary. It didn't matter as long as he felt in his heart he could see her.. and the voice. So real... Knocking him in to reality~ was he still dreaming? He thought in the back of his head as his hair danced in the oddest winds.
Then the look of another female~ ghost like. Why had this night come~ did the ghosts of the graves want to play tricks on poor Armageddon. The pay he recieved for caring for their bodies..
Darkest hour of lumming shadows danced before Yoru's eyes. Ghosts weren't of haunting tonight... Yoru's fins now was hit with the sound of his mother's voice. The song he heard her sing only once- but he could remember it like if it was the ending minute. Zuko far ahead of him and Elora's head bobbing with Yoru's step. "Yoru-kun! Why are we running!?" Yoru didn't answer his fishy mate. His thoughts were busy on the fact that Zuko said Morgana and on top of that he could hear her voice. If this wasn't real- it would be heartbreaking but at the same time he would jump in to if with any mention of his mother.
When they pasted the south area's gates- and the tattered gumdrop graves he saw HIM. His glowing red eyes scorched almost when he saw the pattern of his mother in pale moonlight. -The stare was broken by a bright glow... Meian? He concluded but wasnt sure. Maybe his artistic dad made replicas of them to torture Yoru. He wasn't sure... so he stopped himself from full on running and hugging them like his life depended on it. Zuko had flew past not even thinking back to look if yoru was following him. He full on swam their way. Which a little ways off. Not even seeing that Armageddon was their or not. Main concern : Morgana and Meian.

Morgana stopped her song as she looked down at her mate lovingly and she slowly fluttered her way down, off the statue and she made her way toward Arma, standing in front of him, "My love, the only one who has been tortured has been me since I had to leave." she whispered, reaching up to run a paw along his crescent moon, that seemed to glow just like their daughter.
Meian landed on top of a gravestone and she watched her parents, her wings folding down along her back and she smiled happily, her heart filling with joy at seeing her parents finally reunited.

This... wasn't a dream? An illusion played by the ghosts? When she touched his creset moon. The shivers went down his body and made him finally. After long. React.
"Morgana." He curled his arms around her and picked her up. Snugging her in an embrace as if she had gone from this world. But it was a soft touch.. Oh.. how his heart made a turn. The moon shining bright as he nuzzled his nose against her neck and cheek. Smelling her, feeling her soft fur and her essence so sweet. Not even knowing that the world around them was even alive.
Entranced~ by her every being. Not even thinking that the glow was from his daughter- other than the moon itself.
She gave off that kinda glow... brilliantly as her father huh.

She wrapped her arms around him as best she could around his big frame. She nuzzled him back, taking in his somewhat sour scent that she loved so much and missed terribly. "I am back my love...we are back..." she whispered to him, pulling back enough to look up at him.

When she hugged him to. What was this feeling just burried in him.. Then when she said 'we' he snapped out of it and looked up.
There. Standing before him- curled in to the statue. Morgana's child. The other- the daughter that he come to find so much missed feelings for. "Little Meian." He let loose one arm and held out his paw towards her in a concerned way and gave her the choice to come. For he wouldn't let anyone do something they did not want themselves.
In that pure instant Zuko same straight in to Morgana's chest fur. [ Nice place to land XD ] He snugged his head and fins clinging to her as if the world were to end. Sniffling came from the rotten fish'es eyes..
Yoru stayed there. In shock. How come HE saw them first. He didn't deserve it! It was hateful.. and it made his stomach turn that they would see HIM before Yoru.. his tail curled around his leg and his head sunk low to teh ground.. as his original glowing eyes dimmed.. Elora's eyes shifted towards Yoru and snugged him. "Im sorry.. Isn't that Momma Morgy and Sissy Meian? Why don't you go after them?" Her fins floated with his hair.
Yoru's heart thrumbed... He was the one who kept their memory alive. The places they slept- he stared at and prayed they would come home. The one who dusted their things- did everything he could...

Meian fluttered off the headstone and padded over to them both, "Daddy!!! We're finally home!!" she said as she hugged herself to him, her glow now as bright as the moon itself, snuggling into his dark fur.

Armageddon curled his arm around her small body~ lighty lifted her as if she were still a child. "Ah, so you have changed of many as well hm? Just as Morgana's other. Your brother..." His smile seemed so gentle when it crossed his maw.
He felt himself joyed and a grand oppertunity to see them once again. "Do you two need anything? Have anything for I to carry? " His question seemed more concerning of their comfort and stay~ but then he eased up a little as he held Morgana closer.
"Hope your travels were Safe?" Genuinely having their all around upside of things. Hopefully they're tell he could learn from and somehow help..
"My apologizes that nothing was prepared for you two. No one told me of your coming..."

Morgana shook her head as she let herself be held by Arma, "No, we have nothing that we brought. But where is our son?" she asked, cradling Zuko close to her chest, leaning down to nuzzle his rotting, fishy body.

"Our son... hm. He is independent..He should be roaming around his greenhouse of sorts.." He looked and watched the scenery... Pondering that if Zuko was close then Yoru had to be close as well. Sometimes Arma would look like he didn't care nor that he was aware but! All in all he was really aware of everything that went on around him.
"Zuko... " He looked at him- but Zuko was too indulged in Morgana's beauty and care that he had no open ear to hear Arma's pledge. Arma's tail shook from each side as he looked to Meian.
"Tell me of your travels?" He smiled some~ and nuzzled Morgana's cheek. "And as for you my love. Would you like to go home now?" He blinked at her for a response to lead them down the path. Much has changed.. The house was a little bigger for Armageddon made a little dance studio sort of on the other side of art room. But he didn't make any more rooms because they all got bigger. No. Just a dance studio and didn't really think that they would grow up so fast..

Armageddon leaned down to his sweet daughter. "Meian. If you want to see him. Call out to him and I am sure he will hear. You are here." He gently smiled and nuzzled her cheek- adding a pet, smoothing down her hair.
He felt like his heart could burst. How could he- he be the one they come to! He was so angry and not being able to read lips. He suppose they didn't want to see him. Did they forget? He shook his head to each side sadly and turned to leave back from where he came. Elora pulled at his lavishing hair that seemed to flow so softly in the wind he made when he turned. "YORU! STOP! COME ON LETS GO TO THEM!" Elora squeeled t him and kept pulling. Yoru said something muffled.. sad.
"Nauh.. Im not needed. They got him." His tail squirmed out of the bush a lil forward before slipping in like a snake- to follow behind the teenage male.
