It was a few months after the initial attack and everyone had just about recovered. As promised, other kingdoms ordered in workers to help build the castle once again with the help of all the family. To Kiera's glee, everything was working out perfectly. It seemed the kingdoms were more than happy to help out and the more that helped the quicker the rebuilding was. The castle had it's structure however only a little stone was already placed. So they were about halfway done. But they weren't faltering yet. Despite all the heavy work Dante still trained every day, sometimes with Kiiro. Kiiro it turned out had become a great offensive weapon as well as her talents with calming. However the more dangerous sides of her weren't properly under her control so it was best that they didn't use them so often. Dante was still depressed. As much as he could be, he still put on a smile everyday and was nice but there was just something off. Dante rarely slept as he was troubled with nightmares. However things did seem to get better as time went by. And Evelyn ended up losing her bet for the first time, much to her dismay. Dante woke with a start as he recalled his nightmare from the night before, and he rubbed his head as if to try to get it out. "Urgh.." He sluggishly got out of bed and went to go and slide his clothes on, before noticing Kiiro was in the room with him. "You were making those faces again." Dante nodded as he zipped up his jacket. "Was it the same dream again?" Dante nodded once more. "I'm not sure it's just going to disappear." Kiiro frowned. "You should let me calm your head more often. Then you'll dream normally."

*Shortstraw was always assiting with all the building going on. He felt it was his job as the man to help. Course he still spent his nights with keria and his kids. Cresent and Moon though were never heard nor seen again. Eveyln according to shortstraw was put on brotherhood duty with the returning susscubus Karen. Veira was working on her spechal acts with her little group of course, and then there was Amelliea. She now saw kirro everyday and usally at night. She was around her much, but also with her cosens alittle more. And more joyful now aswell for kirro was like a second mother to her.

Kiiro sat on Dante's temporary bed. "Are you going to train again?" Dante shook his head. "I'm going to collect something, actually. I've put it off for too long." Kiiro fiddled her hands together. "I want you to come with me." Kiiro nodded with a smile. "Of course." As they walked out of the room and out of the house Kiiro decided to question. "What is it you're going to collect?" Dante looked to the ground. "Soflora.. she used to badger me about a lot of things in our relationship." Kiiro nodded. "But not in a bad way. I mean.. she loved me. And she wanted us to get married and live perfectly." They walked into town. "And I loved her too. Took me a while to realise it." Kiiro recognised the aura's of the shop they were approaching, the almost-new smithy. As they walked inside Dante nodded to the owner and led Kiiro around to the back. "Often when she mentioned marriage it scared the s**t out of me." There were a line of boxes in the back of a dusty room and Dante picked out one and opened it. "But then I did conclude that it was just the word marriage that scared me. Watching Kiera and Shortstraw go through it." He picked out a small velvet box from inside and blew off the dust. "You were really going to ask her to marry you?" Dante let Kiiro hold the ring inside the small box which only confirmed it. "I made it." Dante took back the ring, stuffed it inside the box and into his pocket and gave a small smile. "Guess it doesn't matter now, does it." He then started to lead her back out of the store.

*When donte and kirro returned to the house Ameillea greated them. She was starting to loosen up alittle for donte now that kirro showed she liked him and stuff. She held up a craft for kirro though at the door, "i made you somthing." She held it up for kirros hands, knowing she was blind. It was a little stick person, well two, made out of popsical sticks, pipecleaners, and some toothpicks. "Can you tell what it is?" She asked. One figure was smaller then the other one, with one pare of googly eyes and little pipecleaner wings. THe other was taller with six googly eyes, and two little stubs of toothpicks for horns.*

Kiiro giggled as she felt the little figures. "It's you and me." She smiled. "Although it's me in my true form." Dante nodded. "I'd almost forgotten about that." He scratched his head. "You looked pretty scary then, you know." Kiiro blinked as she turned her head to him, a little worried. "Am I scary now?" Dante quickly shook his head. "Not in the slightest." Kiiro smiled back to Amelia. "These are great. Did you make these with your cousins?" Dante started to walk into the kitchen. "I'm just going to grab a bite to eat, okay?" Kiiro nodded. "All right mister Dante." Dante looked back with a scowl. "I told you to drop the mister." He walked into the kitchen.

Kiiro smiled even more. "Thank you so much, Amelia. That's really sweet." She turned her head to the kitchen then back to Amelia. "I think I might be training with Dante today. Is that all right? I don't want to leave you behind if you want me to be here. I could get miss Kiera to train Dante after all." She brought her finger to her mouth. "But I'm just trying to make Dante feel a little better." Dante walked through the kitchen and messed up Theodore's and Evelin's hair as he passed them. "Hey you two." He spun behind them. "What'cha doin'?" Evelin grinned up to her uncle and showed him the unicorn that she made. "Making stuff!" Dante blinked. "Well thats... very nice, Evelin." He chuckled then looked to Theodore's. "Is that what I think it is?"

*Theardor nodded, "Yep! I got me a bunny trap and axe! I'm going to prove im a warrior by cetching a bunny soon." He explained happily, "oh but sissys is nice too for decoration." He nodded giving her credit. "What you doing Uncle Donte? Any fun stuff?" Ameillia stugged, "it's okay... unless i can come too." She smiled, "maybe i can train too." Her wings fluttered, "but if not thats okay too. I can... play with the others."

Kiiro shook her head. "No no. You're always welcome to come with us if you want. I'm sure Dante won't mind." She smiled. "Yeah, it'll be a good chance for you to train, too. Dante likes my training. Although it's hard work." Dante walked over to the fridge and grabbed a bottle of water with some meat. "Not really. Just training as always." Evelin looked around. "You're always with Kiiro now." Dante nodded. "We're connected. It only makes sense that we stay near each other." He walked to the empty chair and noticed Amelia's plushie, so he carefully picked it up as he walked back into the hallway and looked to Amelia with a small smile. "Is this yours?" He crouched and carefully handed it to her.

SHe nodded and slowly took it, hugging it with a blush. This was the closest she had been near donte face to face. She then spoke even though he couldn't hear her, "th...thanks... uncle." She looked up to kirro behind her and gulped as she attempted, "I wanna train to... is it okay with you uncle?" Theador thought about, then smiled largly, "alsome with them gone, and mom and dad reviewing hte house thingy, that gives me the perfict change to go cetch my bunny." He hopped off his chair, "you coming sissy? It maight be dangrious."

Dante looked like he'd heard something as he concentrated and glanced to Kiiro. "Did you hear her?" Dante scratched the back of his neck. "Yeah.. though it wasn't very clear." Kiiro nodded. "It's probably because you're able to hear animals. Amelia's a little lower on that scale." Dante fiddled with his ear. "I guess the more I listen out for her the stronger my ears will get." Kiiro smiled. "She asked if she was allowed to train with us today." Dante blinked then quickly nodded to Amelia with a smile. "Of course you are. You're welcome to train with us anytime." Evelin frowned. "You'll only get us in trouble, you know that right?" Although she seemed compelled to follow him anyway as she hopped out of her seat.

*Theador chukkled, "troubles my middle name! Theador Trouble Yokai." He giggled and grabbed his things, "we should be back way before anyone notices us gone." He nodded, "we will sneak out the back door and use the woods. And we wont go too far becuse i have this..." He held up a carrot, "they will come to me! Muahahahaha" He replied heading for the door. Meanwhile amiele smiled and gave a happy nod, hugging her fox plushy as she reached out to slowly reach for dontes hand, signalling she was ready to go. He wasn't that bad. He was a fleashy strang one, but he was okay. If kirro liked him, she liked him. After all she could litarly feel a peice of him inside kirro, which ment they were together anyways.

Dante Kiiro and Amelia were already walking down the path. "Which area are we gonna go this time?" Kiiro thought about it. "The field. I have something I want to teach you about controlling your wolf form." Dante sighed. "Most people have tried and failed." Kiiro smiled to him. "Well I'm not most people." Dante looked to her then had to quickly look away. They made their way into the training field, the same one Kiera used to use for training Shortstraw. Still with supplies at the edges in large crates and straw dummies pinned at the sides. Kiiro turned to face Dante. "To be able to control the wolf you'll have to have achieved a state of full control over your aura. The aura controls the wolf, not the spirit. Since it is the monstrosity you were born as." Dante pulled a face. "You mean like chakras?" Kiiro shrugged. "Same thing." Kiiro turned to Amelia. "Do you know what your aura is sweetie?" Evelin stayed close to Theodore anxiously. "You're still trying to prove to that lady that you're a warrior? She might have forgotten by now.." She tried to discourage him.

*Theador shook his head, "dosn't matter. She made a challenge for me. Now i have to prove myself. If she forgotten or not. I can never be a strong worror if i never take the challenge." He picked up a stick and handed it to Evelin, "here just in case." He put his trap down and put the carrort in it, "alright now we just hide. I saw some bunnys out here not long ago, i'm sure theres a few around here." He hid into a bush pulling Evlin in with him. Little did he know it was a poision Ivy bush... nor did he know there were such things. Meanwhile Ameillea nodded as she sat her plushy neatly down on a create to watch them, "you be good Kirro." She replied as she patted it's head and headed back over to kirro, and donte, "Aura is our power source. Momma says the more you have the more powerful you are." She nodded, "but my aura is spechal." She looked to her wings, "i got two auras." SHe nodded. "Do i control a wolfy too?"

Kiiro smiled with a small giggle. "No, this just means that you have both the angel and the demon characteristics. However since your father was half demon himself, you're three quarters. The angel will be slightly weaker than the demon." She faced both of them. "All right. The first section of your aura is called Muladhara. This is related to our survival instincts, and to our sense of grounding and connection to our bodies and the physical plane. So naturally its located at the base of the spine. Dante, yours will be much stronger because of how much you work with your wolf and its deep connection to the earth." Dante nodded. "How many of these are there?" Kiiro thought for a second. "Seven. I think." Dante tilted his head. "And you're going to make me work on the ones I'm not strong with?" Kiiro frowned a little. "Just let me explain them all first." Evelin suddenly started to get itchy rashes patched over her body. "Bro.." She scratched her arms. "Something... something's wrong with this bush.."
