Welcome to Gaia! ::

Tori was indeed in the library doing a little research to catch up on some of the newer things that she had encountered to add to her growing notes. She had been totally happy to have Aklin back and after they both had a long talk did she finally wandered back into the library.

Currently Tori was sitting down at one of the tables with several books around her along with her notes. Humming softly to herself as she was writing information down and wasn't currently aware too well of who was a round. Tori was also deep in conversation with Aklin as answered the questions she had about Halloween creatures he knew.

Even in the library and her weapon back, Tori still wasn't all back to normal since she still had a heavy heart with Bix gone. She couldn't even muster herself to visit his room but she had gone to see his grave to try to say goodbye.

Aklin had been explaining a little to Tori on how the oceans in Halloween were like and to what type of creatures that he had seen and know about that lived there. Tori did jump a little as she was all of a sudden she hugged by Bix, but he was dead and her brain did a full halt to which Tori couldn't even think about screaming at all even if she did feel like it. It took a little for her to get her brain to restart itself to where she could process to what just happened and to what he had said to her about not being dead. She couldn't believe it since people didn't come back from the dead, but then strange things always happened around here.

Alright Tori's brain managed to reboot itself and now she was a little hesitant to turn around since she could and Bix wouldn't be there. Taking a deep breath Tori turned around in the chair to see that yes indeed Bix was standing right there. Getting up from her chain and walked up to Bix and poked him just to make sure. A huge smile spread across her face as she really excitedly embraced the albino hunter. Oh was Tori so excited to see his best friend that she couldn't even explain or even try on how happy she felt. "Are you sure about that?" Tori said teasing Bix a little as she let go of him and stepped back a little. "But I'm truly happy to see that you aren't," she added still smiling happily as she had her other best friend back.

Giggling softly when Bix gave her another hug and lifted her off the ground since she felt so very, very happy something she hadn't felt in a long time. "That is good as I think that some might not like a zombie Bix," Tori replied still smiling.

Seeing Bix take a seat that Tori sat back into her own seat and turned it were she could be facing the albino hunter. "That will be something that you will never forget," she said as she would have been freaked out waking up in a place like that and she carefully listened to all of what he had to say. "Maybe its a good think you don't remember as lots of s**t happened and I mostly smacked the werewolf creature one I heard some of the creature students call Red," she added as so much had been happening things were a little blurry to her.

"Down outright depressing you and Ceres deaths took a heavy toll on people and having our weapons reverted back to there tablet form didn't help either. I for one took it hard with the loss of both weapon and you, but I do think that Before took it harder than I did, I heard him on the battle field call your name out," Tori said as she started to fiddle with a pen she had picked up and gathered her thought back up. "Once we had gotten back to the island and I will admit I did a lot of crying, but when I found Before a little later when I was glad to see that he was alive he didn't want to be and was upset that he couldn't protect you from the other that were attacking you. Then I guess I gave him a little lecture that he shouldn't think like that and you or Vanna wouldn't like that as I didn't want to hear that type of thing coming from him and he didn't like it, but I could see that he was just upset and frustrated. But its really good to have you back," she said and she felt a little bad telling all of this to Bix but best friends didn't keep secrets and she knew he had to know and sorry Before.

"I'm sorry that I didn't do anything to defend you as there had been so much happening that you fell before I could even get over to you. I blamed myself for your death for not helping and I already had one death on my hands..." Tori said softly were Bix was the only one to hear it as she looked down at the ground unable to know what else to say since just saying that had been hard enough to admit since she really hadn't told anyone on blaming herself for Bix's 'death'.

Tori had been trying not to cry since she had already done a lot of it already and even for her to express her own feelings to Bix was hard for her since. But with Bix it had been easier as she had her best friend back that in a way felt almost like a brother to her. A few tears did trickle down her cheek.

Listening to what Bix was saying as part of herself still would most likely blame herself because of what she had done in the far past. "I can only try but its just something that I just do for those that I care for as I have felt that maybe if I had done something to prevent that things could have changed. But I will try and its very good that you are back," she replied as Tori wiped her tears as there was no need for them any longer.

Smiling when he squeezed her hand as it was just another way for her to really know that Bix was alive and back. "I don't think he is or at least the last time that I talk with him. He was really mad that people attacked you and then some of the same ones then protected Ceres and we did have orders from Caelius to attack and kill the both of you when you took those forms. I think he is also mad that he couldn't protect you," Tori replied to Bix as she could see that he was worried as Tori was worried too.
