Welcome to Gaia! ::

Dane was by himself this time. He had convinced Dominic that since he was meeting with his virtuous DNA donor that he should have nothing to worry about. The contrast between Kerylia and this new donor that he had yet to meet, Dane expected to be black and white.

He had tried to remain impartial to his feelings of meeting his other biological parent so to speak. Most of his enthusiasm toward the subject was crushed when he had met with the gluttony demon.

As he walked down the path past the gates to the facility Dane found himself beginning to become more and more excited. He was trying not to get his hopes up, but the curiosity and an innate yearning for a closeness with a biological relative that was in most children seemed to over come him.

Stepping into the building he was not expecting to meet this angel upon arrival, he had been expecting to be taken to him, as he had with Kerylia. Upon opening the doors and walking into the main lobby Dane spotted the woman in a technician coat and the tall man with wings, very similar to his own.

He approached the two, looking more to the technician though stealing glances at the man wondering in the back of his mind if that was him, "Uhm...excuse me, I'm supposed to have a meeting with Jhordaesaloria?" He asked. That name had been a mouthful, it had taken him a while to learn how to pronounce it when he had gotten it in the mail. He only hoped he had it right.

Dane turned to the man. He stood much, much taller than himself. He apparently didn't get his height from him.

He took the angels hand and shook it, "I'm Dane, it's...nice to meet you," Dane admitted with a relieved smile. He knew his other DNA donor was an angel. Still he couldn't help but worry that he could be some nut job too.

"I've kinda always been interested to meet you...I mean we're kinda like family in a way, right?" Dane wondered. It was a strange concept. He hadn't even met him before but if you were to go by genetics he was his real father. Though he wasn't there at all for him as a child like Dominic had been.

Dane nodded as the angel led him off, "A few," He said. He figured the obvious from his given genetic material and explanation of what liberality was. Though he had some more...peculiar questions he wanted to know from the angel.

"Well, obviously liberality is kinda like generosity right? I get that and I know that's probably why I get those urges to get people stuff and give them compliments but, sometimes I notice my dad, or sometimes even my brother be more...generous when I've been around them for a while. Is that from you too?" He asked wondering if those strange occurrences had just been in his head or if there was something more to it.

Dane nodded his head as he listened to the angels explanation. That made sense, or at the very least it was logical.

"I, have another question," He started wondering if this would be to bold to ask. Perhaps though, he still felt he deserved an explanation, "Why do you let them take your DNA to make children? And then you just let the kids get tested on when we're all so young and confused...not just me I know a lot of the other kids that well, hate this place. They all felt confused and alone when they were young and no one even so much as gave us a hug. I love my dad and all but, before I lived with him everything was just...so cold," He said trying not to remember the fleeting memories from years ago.

Dane frowned, "Captured? You guys are prisoners here? That's horrible," The boy responded exasperated. He thought that these angels and demons had to be volunteers, "How do they keep you here? Why can't you escape?" He asked feeling sorry now for all the inhabitants in the facility.

When the subject shifted to the tests he frowned again, "Yeah, one of my best friends, his name is Pepper. They always did tests on him, he made it sound like it was no big deal, just a part of daily life..." He seemed saddened by this, he still had a hard time accepting how caged up Pepper was let alone the fact that he was being tested on.

Dane frowned at the angel obviously trying to hard to rationalize the situation, "That frequently?" He questioned emphasizing it to show how ridiculous it sounded just to make sure he was healthy, "Pepper has to do a lot of hard stuff, he really doesn't like Vampy I think...he doesn't even really have some one to care for him like a son, like I have my dad Dominic. I think he said something about Almas once, but I think he said he was more Luthors dad than his own," Dane seemed pretty down about the way his friend lived around here. He had always felt bad for Pepper since he first found out about it.

"Hell hounds? Shields?" He said furrowing his brow, "That's wrong...they have no right to keep you locked up here like that," He said sympathetically. He knew that this place wasn't a good place, but he didn't know they kept people here against their will. It was pretty shocking to the boy.

Dane looked at Jhor with a bit of a scowl, "Pepper is a good friend to me, he's different, but he's a good kid, there's nothing wrong with him," He said defensively. He wasn't mad at Jhor, but he would let him know that Pepper was a good person no matter what.

"Hya? Who's that?...what happened?" Dane asked suspiciously, confused, "How did he escape?" He asked seeing a glimmer of hope. If one got away, why couldn't the others?
