Welcome to Gaia! ::

Josh pulled up to Yuurei’s house. His car gave a few haggard putters before he turned off the engine. “Stupid piece of junk.” Josh mumbled out of bad habit. Anyone in the area probably knew hat that had arrived now. The boy turned to his bunny passenger and probed gently, “You all ready for the party?”

LuLu’s ears perked up over the sequined rim of her princess hat. Her fingers were busily twisting and fiddling with the sheer pink fabric that hung elegantly from its pointed tip. She nodded eagerly in response to Josh‘s question, “Yes! I want to go say hi now.” With that, the half torso flung open the car door and floated out of the car. She recoiled only for a few seconds to slam the door shut. Josh groaned as he heard the sound of his brittle car take the blow. He was sure that the bunny would completely knock off the door one day. The boy soon hopped from the battered truck himself and took a greater care in closing his side of the car. He could see LuLu bouncing impatiently at the side walking waiting for him.

Josh took the lead as he steadily made his way through their makeshift graveyard and quaint strobe lights. He found the set up cute. Once or twice, he even could consider it scary. LuLu, on the other hand, was borderline terrified as she made her way to the house.

The frei was frantically looking over her shoulders at the various, random blinking lights. She tried to take account of each one. The task was growing harder and harder by the second as the flashes accumulated and amassed before her eyes. She also took notice of the ghouls and ghosts hidden among the flickering beams. A face would jump out at her accompanied by a vivid surge of orange then a dismembered hand rising from the earth. Josh could feel her shoulders trembling as she clung to his legs. “Luuuu,” the boy cooed, “It is all fake. Calm down.”

The raevan looked at him then looked around again. She held some doubt in the boy. Especially when she saw the severed foot on one of the porch rails. The girl tugged Josh to the door and knocked frantically. She wanted to be inside. NOW.

The figures of a silver haired vampire and a white haired ninja-cowboy pulled up on a cruiser with time to spare. Turning off the engine Xan pulled off his helmet helping his charge with his specially made helmet (to accommodate his horn). Placing said helmets on the back of the bike he watched Domevlo carefully the excitement and curiousness in his eyes were evident on his face. "You okay?" Xan inquired taking a look around the yard and chuckling to himself at all the decorations. It appeared the lady didn't hold any punches. He liked it.

For the young frei his eyes were filled with a curious air as he floated forward picking through the decorations carefully. To him it was all real. With his handy raid can at the ready he watched carefully for anything to pop out at him unexpectedly. Ever since talk of this Hello Ween thing had started it had gone from normal to scary almost over night. "It's not real, Domo, they're decorations." Xan tried to explain but he got a cold stare from the frei who moved closer to almost mold himself to the cowboy... well the vampire now. He could only chuckle removing his cape from his carry-on compartment. "Well lets get inside then, no point staying out here."

"Domo not like... scary!" He looked around glaring at all the weird decor. His attention on his guardian he began pushing him harshly toward the front door. "We go! Inside ... now... Domo say please!"

"Okay okay... lets get inside. C'mon." Heading to the front door, Xan wrapped lightly. He hadn't met this Yuurei person but had heard about the party, it seemed to accumulate quite a buzz. Hopefully it wasn't rude to just appear without introducing himself first but Domo needed to get out and meet others like himself. Besides he was getting tired of the frei destroying his house for one reason or another. At least when he went out he was in a lighter mood.

Yuurei smiled at Josh as he entered the Great Room. ”Happy Halloween!” she called to the teenager. ”You’re looking so cyuute” she teased. Most 16-year-old boys wanted to be hot or sexy; not cute. The blonde grinned. It was his fault for being a bunny. Yuurei sipped her glass of dark wine, her witch’s hat resting beside her on the couch. ”If you want, there is some hot apple cider in the kitchen” she offered, pointing the way and rising to her feet. She placed her black hat on her head and shook out her hair, and began walking to the kitchen, ready to get cider or water, or whatever this guest might want.

Lucia laughed lightly as LuLu hugged her and confessed her fear. ”Scary, eh? Well the inside is pretty scary too. Don’t watch the TV. It’s playing all sorts of scary movies tonight. And maybe the ghosts and ghouls will come out of the dungeon.” Lucia smiled, at the costume LuLu had worn. ”Of course I’m a cat! And yes, it suits you very well.” The princess always had to be rescued by the knight or prince. It worked for the frightened bunny and the cat’s eyes flashed at her prey when a sudden knock drew her attention away. She turned her head to the sound and realized another partygoer was here.

Opening the door slightly, Lucia looked in surprise at the face of two people she didn’t know. ”Hi!” she said, pushing it open the rest of the way. ”You must know LuLu. I’m Lucia.” She looked past the human and to the raevan behind him. This frei’s eyes were dark, like Vyn’s. His pale silvery skin shone in the flickering candle and she walked outside the door to greet him. She liked his scent. He was hers. Lucia leaned close to Domo and, with a shine of her eye and a smile, she rubbed her neck against his shoulder, a small purr escaping her lips. ”You are?” she asked with another nuzzle, this time with her nose and cheek.

Josh chuckled softly. A hand went to readjust his rabbit ear adorned headband and smooth out his bangs, “I just took some fashion advice from Lu is all. Thanks though. You look…” The boy tried to find the right words, ones that did not consist of ‘hot’, ‘smoking’, or ‘banging’. “Positively astonishing.” He gave another nervous chuckle. If you looked closely, you could see the faintest color surge to his cheeks. Josh followed the busty enchanter into the kitchen. He leaned against the counter rather casually, “Just water please.”

LuLu listened to Lucia advice wide eyed. The slightest shiver shot through her spine. Her voice came out as a small wavering curl, “G-ghosts. They are fake right?” The rabbit frei spared a look around the kitten’s home and noticed that the inside was not much better than the yard. Pumpkins, lights, and countless decorations flooded the rooms. LuLu tried to remember each one. She liked being aware of her surroundings. However, the girl was having trouble keeping her eyes on any one object for too long. The fake blood and doll like eyes that ornamented many of the decorations made her feel on edge. As well, the sheer mass of the decoration was starting to make her feel crowded.

Confined.

LuLu broke away from staring at a plastic gargoyle to see that Lucia had left her to answer the door. The bunny peeked over Lucia’s pale shoulder to see an equally pallid raevan; except, his skin held a familiar silver sheen. LuLu chirruped, “Domo.” She accompanied the statement with a small wave and a smile.

Yuurei grinned, grabbing a Halloween-themed cup and filled it with water from the fridge, placing a few bat-shaped ice cubes in the cup. ”Here you go!” she said with a smile. ”How have you been?” While the blonde liked spending time with Josh, she certainly hoped that one of the guardians who showed up was a devilishly handsome man in his 20s or early to mid 30s. There was no harm in flirting with the young guardian, but she wasn’t one to fall for jailbait. As she heard another knock Yuu’s eyebrows rose. Just how many people had her dark-haired frei invited?!

”Lucia” purred the kitten to the silvery frei as she nuzzled again into him, and placed her hands on his chest. Another knock startled her from her As LuLu spoke to Domo, Lucia turned to face her, but was again distracted by another knock on the door. Opening it wide, she smiled at the next guests and said, “Hi! I’m Lucia” once she saw that they were strangers. She propped open the door with a rock that she had grabbed earlier so that any visitors would be able to just enter. She turned back to her prey briefly. The rabbit seemed to be more frightened as she took in the interior decorations. Lucia crouched down slightly, a smile playing on her lips. The weak animal was unsuspecting. Now was the time to attack.

Ignoring the new visitors, the kitten leaped at LuLu her hands landing squarely on the rabbit’s chest as she pushed the frei to the floor. She had surprised the weaker animal and pounced before she could escape!

“I am doing well. How have you been?” Josh smiled at Yuurei as he graciously took the cup offered to him. He watched the small, clear bats clink against the pumpkin print glass. The chilly creatures brought a smile to his lips. “You are really getting into the Halloween spirit here.”

LuLu’s lavender eyes were flicking frantically around the interior of Lucia’s home. She was trying desperately to calm her nerves. All her attempts failed as she spotted a creamy skinned blur coming at her. The rabbit had managed to cover her eyes with her hand and jump up into the air, a failed attempt at fleeing, before she was pinned onto the ground. The frei gave a squeal of distress. It was easily drowned out by the more vocal decorations and a shriek on the television. Her wide eyes tore open to spy Lucia. LuLu’s body grew somewhat more lax. Even though she was trapped, it was bellow a familiar raevan. The bunny murmured timidly, “If Lucia wanted more hugs. She could ask.”

Melisande drifted around the corner of the block, where Aki had dropped them off. Holding Sevvie's hand tightly in her own, she suddenly paused as she spotted the house.

"A-are you sure? It looks so scary!!" The muse blanched, looking even more pale, if that was possible.

Her hair was down against her back in soft waves, curls pulled out a bit and the hair at her temples pulled back. With her brows darkened and her lips blood red, she looked surprisingly close to what Aki called The White Queen. As she understood it, the White Queen was like a princess, only better. Then again, Aki hadn't taken much time to explain.

Swallowing, still holding the nymph's hand tight, Pasha drifted a few inches closer to the door. "Lucia? Are you there?"
