RufusSafer: Sano clings to Ken
EeoRaptor: Kenshin sighs...
RufusSafer: "Something wrong?"
EeoRaptor: "nothin Sano... "
RufusSafer: "Thought you were gonna cook tonight?"
EeoRaptor: "yeah.. just let me ."
RufusSafer: "Alright. I'll be out back practicing." Sano grinned at him and walked off, carrying a wooden sword with him.
EeoRaptor: Kenshin slaps his own cheeks a bit to come out of his stupor and goes to gather ingredients for dinner
RufusSafer: The only sound other then the birds are Sano, practicing his sword play
EeoRaptor: Kenshin cuts up the tofu he's been saving and slices up daikon and several other vegetables... preparing one of his simple.. and delicious meals... but he's distracted
RufusSafer: Sano is unaware of Kenshin's distractions, managing to keep his mind empty as he trains. Sano comes back when he smells dinner
EeoRaptor: Kenshin smiles and gives him his rice bowl and vegetables. "Im not myself today... forgive me if the taste is off"
RufusSafer: "What's wrong?" Sano frowned in concern.
EeoRaptor: "Nothing... we should move on soon... this place is nice but..."
RufusSafer: "But time to wander?"
EeoRaptor: Kenshin nods "If I stay in one place for too long.. things... start bothering me"
RufusSafer: "Then I will pack up and we'll go after we eat."
EeoRaptor: "Lets spend the night... its getting late anyway"
RufusSafer: "Alright." Sano started on the food.
EeoRaptor: Kenshin starts eating as well.. quietly as usual
RufusSafer: Sano ahhhed as he finished, setting his bowl asside.
EeoRaptor: when kenshin is done eating he places thier bowls in a bucket of water to soak and climbs into Sano's lap
RufusSafer: Sano pulled his arms around him, smiling softly.
EeoRaptor: "This is how I am happiest"
RufusSafer: "In my arms?"
EeoRaptor: "mmm... yes"
RufusSafer: Sano kissed Ken's forehead. "I live to make you happy."
EeoRaptor: "mm... I wish I could live for the same..."
RufusSafer: "I know, but don't worry about that."
EeoRaptor: Kenshin closes his eyes and relaxes
RufusSafer: Sano's fingers slowly filtered through Ken's hair.
EeoRaptor: "mmm.... sano..."
RufusSafer: "Yes, my love?"
EeoRaptor: "can we play?"
RufusSafer: "Sure." Sano leaned in and licked Ken's ear.
EeoRaptor: Kenshin squeeks and tickles Sano
RufusSafer: Sano laughs.. getting turned on.
EeoRaptor: "mm... sano sano
RufusSafer: "To our bed?"
EeoRaptor: "yes yes"
RufusSafer: Sano swung him into his arms quite easily and walked with him to the bed like a groom carrying a bride.
EeoRaptor: Kenshin chuckles and licks Sano's chin
RufusSafer: "Now now, save your energy." Sano gently lays him on their bed
EeoRaptor: "save my energy Sano?"
RufusSafer: Sano chuckled, pulling his clothing off. "You know what I mean...":
EeoRaptor: "oooh "
RufusSafer: Sano gazed down into Ken's eyes, slowly removing clothing from his lover, leaning down to kiss the exposed flesh slowly.
EeoRaptor: Kenshin moans softly... squirming a little
RufusSafer: Clothing.. falling to the floor as the naked Sanosuke climbed over him, mouth to the thin man's chest.
EeoRaptor: "Sano... youve been into the ginseng again havent you?"

RufusSafer: "Nope... not tonight..." He trailed his tongue slowly up to Kenshin's collar bone, makign soft kisses here and there.
EeoRaptor: "You certainly are.. horny tonight then"
RufusSafer: "I don't need anything but you for that."
EeoRaptor: Kenshin chuckles
RufusSafer: Sano moved his face above Ken's, grinning down at him,.
EeoRaptor: Kenshin smirks up at him "going to violate me?"
RufusSafer: "Mmm... soon my love... I'm gonna make you wait a little first."{
EeoRaptor: "I have to wait?"
RufusSafer: Sano grinned, scooting back and sitting up just past Sano's legs. "Gotta make it easy..."
EeoRaptor: "Hmmm?'
RufusSafer: Sano pulled up Ken's legs and went down, licking along his curves."
EeoRaptor: Kenshin mmphs softly.. it feels wonderful
RufusSafer: Sano drapped Ken's legs around his neck as he worked on him... poking his tongue into him when he could.
EeoRaptor: Kenshin squirms a little.. and moans... Sano is being plain evil tonight

RufusSafer: And enjoying it... his tongue pressing into the smaller Kenshin... licking him out... but soo slowly...
EeoRaptor: Kenshin moans... Sano is drawing it out.. and its insanely pleasureable... it helps him forget what he was worrying about
RufusSafer: Soon Sano's tongue came out and he dropped his legs. "Time... my love."
EeoRaptor: "Ohh... please!"
RufusSafer: "Please what?" Sano purred.
EeoRaptor: "fuck me.. Sanoooo"
RufusSafer: "Oooh! Naughty words Kenny!!" Sano pulled himself between his lover's legs, pressing against him.
RufusSafer: "Since when did you learn those words?"
EeoRaptor: "Since... you started tormenting me... Sanooo!!
RufusSafer: "Time for that to end..." he thrusted in.
EeoRaptor: Kenshin cries out lustily.. and wraps his legs around sano
RufusSafer: Sano was starting to sweat, placing his hands around Ken's arms to pin him to the bed as he started to pump his hips.
EeoRaptor: Kenshin moans deeply.. his eyes slitted with the intense pleasure that Sano is dishing out
RufusSafer: Sano's strength and stamina were incredible.. and he loved to use them on Kenshin when they made love like this
EeoRaptor: Kenshin cries out his nane... it feels wonderful... Sano.. the one thing in life he's allowed himself to stay with and love
RufusSafer: "Kennssshhhiiinnnn...." Sano moaned, thrusting harder.
EeoRaptor: "sano... snao.. it feels...."
RufusSafer: "You're so... wonderful..." He panted, lifting his head up and eyes shut.. trying to thrust faster and harder.
EeoRaptor: Kenshin tightens his legs around Sano... he's hurting him a little... but it feels strangely good
RufusSafer: Sano pants even more.. sweat pouring off his body.. mixing with Ken's. His threasts grew so strong the bed was shaking.
EeoRaptor: Kenshin cries out with each thrust as it hits him in his pleasure spot each time... so quickly... its one continuous throb of pleasure
RufusSafer: Stamina let him hold on withotu spilling.. Sano's intense stamina... his fingers brusing Ken's arms.
EeoRaptor: Ken is finally able to take no more...and bursts, leaking between them
RufusSafer: "Oh my sweet Kenshin..." Sano moaned softly, letting himself go as well, to drench him from withen.
EeoRaptor: Kenshin cries out Sano's name and sprawls lifelessly
RufusSafer: Sano panted, colapsing against Kenshin's chest... moaning softly
EeoRaptor: "Ohhh sano"
RufusSafer: "Kenny...."
EeoRaptor: "That was.. sooo... intense"
RufusSafer: "Mmm... I pleased you.." Sano nuzzled his cheek gently
EeoRaptor: "very pleased..." Kenshin purrs
RufusSafer: "I wear you out yet Kenny?"
EeoRaptor: "yes.. " kenshin says softly.. wondering if he's beginning to feel his age
RufusSafer: Sano chuckles to himself.. remembering how they first met really... "I love you."
EeoRaptor: Kenshin nuzzles Sano's neck "I love you too"
RufusSafer: "Remember when we first met?"
EeoRaptor: "yes.. you wanted to kill me"
RufusSafer: "The first time I saw you..."
EeoRaptor: "you werent very friendly"
RufusSafer: "I saw you get hit by a bowl.. then you watched me fight some drunks.. " Sano kissed him “But yes... I did.... um.. wanna kill you after what HE told me.. but first impressions were good."
EeoRaptor: "Ahh... "
RufusSafer: "What did you think?"
EeoRaptor: "I saw a deeply distubed young man.."
RufusSafer: Sano blinked and wrestled him. "Heyyyyy."
EeoRaptor: "Well you are.. .Sano..." Kenshin says
RufusSafer: "Hmph..." Sano nibbles his shoulder. "Well, I guess that makes up for me trying to kill you once..."
EeoRaptor: "Im deeply disturbed too"
RufusSafer: "I know.. we are a perfect match."
EeoRaptor: "Youre so good"
RufusSafer: Sano grinned, pulling his smaller lover into his arms and flipping over onto his back so that Ken was on his chest
EeoRaptor: Kenshin nuzzles his chest
RufusSafer: "My lovely lover."
EeoRaptor: "Too sexy.. "
RufusSafer: "That you are."
EeoRaptor: "no no.. you are"
RufusSafer: Sano grinned, stroking his fingers through Ken'
All of a sudden Allen appears in mid air and falls to the floor.
EeoRaptor: Kenshin meeps
RufusSafer: Sano yelps, looking at Allen ont he floor.
EeoRaptor: Allen is still out cold... the thump not even stirring him
RufusSafer: Sano climbs off the bed and puts on his pants
EeoRaptor: Kenshin rolls over to peer over the edge at Allen
RufusSafer: Sano pokes the downed knight
EeoRaptor: Allen doesnt move.. it seems lack of eating and his current stressed state have made him comatose
RufusSafer: "Kenny... can you get him something?" Sano frowns down at Allen.
EeoRaptor: Kenshin frowns "I'll see what I can find.. put him on the bed" he says.. pulling on his robe
RufusSafer: Sano nodded, picking Allen up with ease and putting him in the bed they just made love on
EeoRaptor: Allen shifts a little... but doesnt come round
RufusSafer: "Come on.. wake up."
EeoRaptor: "Van... " Allen whimpers... curling on his side
RufusSafer: Sano scratched his head
EeoRaptor: Kenshin comes back with some bitter concoction "Prop him up so I can pour it in his mouth... it should get him out of it"
RufusSafer: Sano nodded, propping the Knight up on the bed
EeoRaptor: Kenshin gets Sano to hold allen still as he pours the stuff into his mouth... holding his nose so he swallows
RufusSafer: Sano held tight... against thrashing
EeoRaptor: Allen comes to life.. thrashing violently... and sputtering... it tastes awful and he really wants to throw up
RufusSafer: But Sano keeps him from really moving. "Ah, you're awake."
EeoRaptor: Allen pants.. pupils dilated "Wh.... ugh..."
RufusSafer: "You appeared here.. passed out."
EeoRaptor: "Van?"
RufusSafer: "No, I'm Sanosuke."
EeoRaptor: Kenshin goes to clean the bowl out before the bitter stuff setse into it and ruins it
EeoRaptor: "Where... ?" Allen asked.
RufusSafer: "You're in our cabin."
EeoRaptor: "Cabin?"
RufusSafer: "In the woods."
EeoRaptor: "I feel.. sick .. I need to throw up..."
RufusSafer: "Where did you coem from?" Sano poked him
RufusSafer: flowers appear on Allen's chest.. the sort his sister used to pick for him when she was little

EeoRaptor: Allen blinks at the flowers
RufusSafer: They had appeared quite suddently.. but he would know what they were
EeoRaptor: Allen picks up the flowers and eats them.. slowly...
RufusSafer: sano blinks and pulls them from his mouth. "hey hey.. those are not for eating now"
EeoRaptor: "I dont... "
RufusSafer: Sano sighed. "Just leave em there, alright?"
EeoRaptor: Allen nods weakly
RufusSafer: Sleep claimed Allen again as Sano stared at Kenshin
EeoRaptor: Kenshin shrugs...
RufusSafer: Allen was dreaming... dreaming about a field of flowers when he was a boy

RufusSafer: there was a giggle next to him
EeoRaptor: Allen blinks
RufusSafer: His little sister.. who was about 6 years old.. held up the bunch of flowers she had just picked for him. "For you big brother!"
EeoRaptor: Allen looks at the flowers... and smiles "they're beautiful... Celena.."
RufusSafer: She smiled, wearing her favorate dress which her mother always feered would stain when she went playing in the grass.
EeoRaptor: "Now be careful... dont ruin your dress" allen says... taking the flowers
RufusSafer: "I won't!" She smiled happily, her blue-violet eyes gazign up at him.
EeoRaptor: Allen smiles and works on making a wreath out of the flowers for her to wear
RufusSafer: She danced around him, making their mother laugh.
EeoRaptor: Allen calls her over and rests the flower wreath on her head
RufusSafer: She leaned up and kissed his cheek. "I love you brother Allen!"
EeoRaptor: Allen chuckles "Now you look like a princess...."
RufusSafer: "Does that make you a prince?"
EeoRaptor: "Hmmm... I suppose"
RufusSafer: "and momma a Queen?"
EeoRaptor: Allen chuckles "of course"
RufusSafer: Celena got quiet for a momment. "Was daddy a king then?"
RufusSafer: She had never known their father.. he had left before she had been born
EeoRaptor: Allen frowns .. "I.."
RufusSafer: Seeming to sense her brother's upsetness Celena smiled and said. "He'd have to be!" And ran around him in circles again, giggling.
EeoRaptor: Allen sighs and shakes his head
RufusSafer: Nothing ever seemed to bother her... she seemed to be the happiest child there was
EeoRaptor: Allen watches her play.. she's so innocent... and he loves her deeply
RufusSafer: and she loved him back.. showing her affection in a number of innocent ways.. especially with the flowers.
RufusSafer: "I'll start dinner." Their mother said, heading back inside.
EeoRaptor: Allen nods and sits to watch over his sister
RufusSafer: She was running all over the place, picking flowers, and bringing them back to Allen
EeoRaptor: Allen smiles and takes them all... putting them in his... and her hair
RufusSafer: She laughed and smiled, sitting next to him as the sun started to fall.
EeoRaptor: "Having fun Celena?"
RufusSafer: "Yep! The mystic moon is coming up!"
EeoRaptor: "Its beautiful isnt it?" He asks... watching it rise
RufusSafer: She nodded. "I hear it's cursed though.. do you?" she stood back up.
EeoRaptor: "how can anything that beautiful be cursed?"
RufusSafer: She shrugged and smiled. "just what I heard."
EeoRaptor: "No.. they say its cursed.. but I dont believe it... its too pretty.."
RufusSafer: She nodded.
RufusSafer: "Allen! Celena! Dinner!" Their mother called.
EeoRaptor: "Come on Celena... its dinner time... lets go get your hands washed"
RufusSafer: "I'll be right there! just getting one more flower."
RufusSafer: She smiled at him then ran across the feild as he went insdie.
EeoRaptor: Allen waits for her inside.. getting the washstand filled with warm water
RufusSafer: After a minute she hadn't come back... that was.. strange..

EeoRaptor: Allen frowns.. and gose outside "Celena! Come on... no more flowers!"
RufusSafer: He didn't see her anywhere....
EeoRaptor: "Celena!!"
RufusSafer: there was no answer
RufusSafer: The flower she had spotted was still standing
EeoRaptor: "Celena! This isnt time for hide and seek!"
RufusSafer: She was not the sort of child who would worry her family like this.. but what could have happend to her in one minute??
EeoRaptor: "celena!!!" Allen yells... getting upset
RufusSafer: there was something on the ground out near that flower
EeoRaptor: Allen walks over to the flower... and bends down to pick up whats there
RufusSafer: It was the wrethe he had made her.. she wouild never have dropped it liek this
EeoRaptor: "celena... " Allen whimpers... something happened... to her..
"CELENA!!"
RufusSafer: There was no answer.. it was as if she had just... vanished
EeoRaptor: Allen rushes back into the house "Mother!!"
RufusSafer: his mother looked up. "Allen? What's the matter?"
EeoRaptor: "celena... she... I cant find her!!"
RufusSafer: "W-where could she have gone?"
EeoRaptor: "I dont know.... she... disappeared..."
RufusSafer: His mother dropped the dish she was holding
EeoRaptor: Allen places her wreath of flowers on the table and goes to his mother... to support her
RufusSafer: She fell into his arms. "N-no.. sh-she c-can't be..."
EeoRaptor: "I.. I'll go into town and get a search party together... she cant have gone far...." Allen says...
RufusSafer: She nodded, sniffling. "Please Allen, find her..."
EeoRaptor: "Dont worry.. I will.. " allen says.. going out and quickly saddling a horse to ride into town
RufusSafer: But she was never found.... and he didn't see her again for nearly 10 years.. and when he did.. he didn't know ti was her
EeoRaptor: Because it wasnt her... it was ... an alternate her... evil... and bloothirsty
RufusSafer: so nasty He couldn't even begin to think about what his eyes told him about the rest
EeoRaptor: And all of this led to his current state
RufusSafer: of being out of it
EeoRaptor: All the pain of his life.. had finally gotten to him
RufusSafer: his little sister
EeoRaptor: how he loved her...
RufusSafer: how it was odd how she had come back into h is life
EeoRaptor: And now.. it was worse for him... because he found he loved her more than he realized
RufusSafer: In such a way that his mother would be spinnign in her grave
EeoRaptor: his mother would have hated him.. if... she was alive to see...
RufusSafer: but what would his mother of thouight of what became of Celena?
EeoRaptor: She would have been quite upset
RufusSafer: Celena had killed so many as her other identity
RufusSafer: Allen had wondered what had become of her so many times.. pictures horrible things such as her being used as a sex slave.. or raped and killed as a small girl.. but what had truely happend had never once come into his head.. because it was too horrifying
EeoRaptor: He'd never realized... how horrible... what had happened to her had been...
RufusSafer: she hadn't been raped... but she had beeen twisted into something very evil...

RufusSafer: Celena as a small girl in Allen's dreams
RufusSafer: "Allleeennn.." Runs to him and hugs around his legs
EeoRaptor: Allen whimpers
RufusSafer: she blinks and looks up at him. "Brother?"
EeoRaptor: "N.. nothing Celena...."
RufusSafer: She hands him some pretty yellow flowers. "For you!"
EeoRaptor: "Thank you ... Celena"
RufusSafer: She smiles at him
EeoRaptor: He pats her on the head... barely able to stop himself from stroking it
RufusSafer: She smiles brightly. "what moma making for dinner?"
EeoRaptor: "Let me out of here!!" Allen whimpers... his perversion just wont go away
RufusSafer: In the dream Celena's form starts to shimer and from out of the door.. Dil, dressed in his uniform, steps out
EeoRaptor: Allen plunks to the floor and hugs his knees
RufusSafer: "You are a sick man allen..."
EeoRaptor: Allen squeezes his eyes shut and starts crying
RufusSafer: He's hugged. "Shh... there there.... it's not your fault..."
EeoRaptor: "why.. do I have to be like this... "
RufusSafer: lips press to his forehead. "Fate..."
EeoRaptor: "Fate is cruel... " Allen whimpers... reaching to wrap around whatever he can to cling to
RufusSafer: A nice warm body, which slides into his lap. "Yes, Fate is very cruel...":
EeoRaptor: Allen cuddles the warmth... calming down "Its only kind when it wants to hurt you more somewhere else down the line"
RufusSafer: "Like how?
EeoRaptor: "Like.. taking you away from me... "
RufusSafer: "Yes.. very cruel..."
EeoRaptor: "Im afraid youre going to go away and leave me to hurt Celena..."
RufusSafer: "Go where?"
EeoRaptor: "Wherever you came from.. back into her subconcious"
RufusSafer: "how far is that?"
EeoRaptor: "far.. it took a lot to get you out in the first place"
RufusSafer: "Yes welll.. fear and trama does that."
EeoRaptor: "I hated you at first...."
RufusSafer: "I know you did.'
EeoRaptor: "Now... I... cant .. "
RufusSafer: "Can't hate me?
EeoRaptor: Allen nods and squeezes him tightly
RufusSafer: "Good... I hated you for a bit too but not any more."
EeoRaptor: "Now.. what I feel.... is what I thought I felt for Van..."
RufusSafer: "Love?"
EeoRaptor: Allen nods and sniffles
RufusSafer: "I love you .. allen-sama"
EeoRaptor: Allen squeezes him tightly "Love... I... yes.. this is real"
RufusSafer: "I'll never leave you."
EeoRaptor: "Promise?"
RufusSafer: "I swear it!"
EeoRaptor: "Then I wont ever leave you... I will love you forever and ever...
RufusSafer: "and I will love you always,."
EeoRaptor: Allen cuddles tightly.. hoping this isnt a sick dream
RufusSafer: He was woken up... that Sano guy was poking him
EeoRaptor: Allen groans
RufusSafer: "hey, he's awake! I think he's gonna live!"
EeoRaptor: Kenshin smiles "Of course he's going to live.. if you can survive the cures.. you can survive the illness"

RufusSafer: Sano laughed. "How true..."
EeoRaptor: Allen whimpers and closes his eyes again... wishing he had died like they were suggesting he was liable to...
RufusSafer: "Now what should we get for him?"
EeoRaptor: "I'll make some broth... I have some miso paste .. that should do"
RufusSafer: Sano nodded. "I'll talk to our 'guest' and try to keep him awake."
EeoRaptor: Kenshin kisses Sano and heads off to prepare something for all of them
RufusSafer: Sano smiles, watching Ken go before turning his attentuion on Allen. "Now.. just HOW did you get here?"
EeoRaptor: Allen shakes his head
RufusSafer: "You don't know?"
RufusSafer: Sano sits down heavily in his chair
EeoRaptor: "I was having the most wonderful dream.."
RufusSafer: "Ah,... I'm sorry I woke you then."
EeoRaptor: “Dil... he... said he loved me...”
RufusSafer: "Love is always good."
EeoRaptor: "He would never say that..."
RufusSafer: "Why not?"
EeoRaptor: "He.. i dont know if he can love"
RufusSafer: "Who is he?"
EeoRaptor: "Dilendau... he's my sister"
RufusSafer: Sano blinked a minute. "Um... he.. sister?" Gets a strange look in his eyes as he looks at Allen
EeoRaptor: "Its hard to explain.. my sister's split personality manifests physically"
RufusSafer: "A he?"
EeoRaptor: "yes... And.. I fell in love with him.."
RufusSafer: "How?"
EeoRaptor: "I.... dont really know... I just admitted it to myself"
RufusSafer: Sano is still confused.
EeoRaptor: "I love him.. " allen says quietly .. then tries to get up
RufusSafer: Pain shot through him
RufusSafer: Sano rubs his head as Kenshin walks back in
EeoRaptor: "Sano! Don’t let him move... " Kenshin says... setting down the miso and pushing Allen back down onto the bed
RufusSafer: "A-alright..." Sano turned to him
EeoRaptor: "Whats the matter Sano?" Kenshin asks... handing him one of the bowls he brought
RufusSafer: "Just what he was telling me.. " takes the bowl
EeoRaptor: Kenshin nods "eat yours before you feed him... whats he been telling you?"
RufusSafer: "Um.. stuff about his sister being a guy and loving him..."
EeoRaptor: "I think the fever might have damaged his brain..."
RufusSafer: "Maybe.. since that didn't make any sense.."
EeoRaptor: "We should find out who he belongs to..."
RufusSafer: "That we should."
EeoRaptor: "Im surprised no one has come for him yet" Kenshin says.. stirring Allen's soup and moving over to spoon it into him
RufusSafer: "Who do you think will come?"
EeoRaptor: "Dont know.. he said he has a sister.. or something right?"
RufusSafer: "Yes.. he did."
EeoRaptor: Allen makes faces at being fed.. he hurts too much to protest though....
RufusSafer: Sano finishes his soup
EeoRaptor: "Shall I go out and seek his owner?" Kenshin asks after pouring he rest of the miso into Allen
RufusSafer: "Sounds like a good plan." Sano hugs Ken
EeoRaptor: "Take care of him... and dont let him move.. okay?" Kenshin says... kissing Sano softly
RufusSafer: Sano kissed back. "Count on me Kenny!"
EeoRaptor: Kenshin chuckles and tucks some leftovers into a small bag to take with him... not sure how long he's going to be
RufusSafer: Sano sits back down next to allen.
EeoRaptor: Allen is just about asleep again... feeling terrible...
RufusSafer: "Hey, what's your name?"
EeoRaptor: "Allen..."
RufusSafer: "I'm Sanosuke."
EeoRaptor: "Nice... to meet you.. why do i hurt so bad?"
RufusSafer: "i do not know.. you appeared in our home."
EeoRaptor: 'why am I so sick?"
RufusSafer: "That I do not know either... but Ken says you'll make it."
EeoRaptor: "I want... I need to get home.. my sister...."
RufusSafer: "We'll find a way to send you there."
EeoRaptor: "She's alone.. she needs me... I promised I wouldnt ever leave... "
RufusSafer: "We're working on getting you home."
EeoRaptor: Allen sighs softly.. "Im so tired.."
RufusSafer: "Get some sleep.. you ain't getting off that bed yet."
EeoRaptor: "i have to .. get to Celena..." Allen whimpers
RufusSafer: "You could die from exhestion right now sir..."
EeoRaptor: "But... celena..." allen says.. already half asleep
RufusSafer: "Shhh.. get some sleep."
EeoRaptor: Allen is already asleep... his face is twisted with sorrow though
RufusSafer: Sano sighs, wishing he could do something more for him
EeoRaptor: He and Kenshin were doing all they could for the stranger...
RufusSafer: Celena meanwhile was at home.. cleaning as usall
EeoRaptor: Kenshin is traveling... and has come quite far rather quickly.. he has a general idea of where Allen came from from the clothes he wears.. he must have money...
RufusSafer: So the large home on the hill is a big draw
EeoRaptor: Kenshin goes and knocks on the door
RufusSafer: Celena flits to the door. "Hello?"
EeoRaptor: "Excuse me Miss... are you... missing anyone?"
RufusSafer: "missing?" she blinks her lovely blue-violet eyes
EeoRaptor: "Yes... we happen to have a very sick man at our home... and... we dont know who he belongs to"
RufusSafer: She cocks her head. "what he look like?"
EeoRaptor: "Long blonde hair.. blue eyes when he can open them..."
RufusSafer: Blinks and goes into her house for a minute
EeoRaptor: Kenshin waits patiently
RufusSafer: she comes back. "my brother is mising.."
EeoRaptor: "Then he must be yours... do you want to come see him? He said he had a sister... or a brother.. we werent really sure"
RufusSafer: "Brother? oh..." Frowns a little.
EeoRaptor: "He was babbling... I think he may have brain damage"
RufusSafer: "Not good... Where is he?"
EeoRaptor: "At my home... can you travel quickly?"
RufusSafer: She nodded. "Yes."
EeoRaptor: "Alright... come then"
RufusSafer: She followed after him, picking flowers as they went
EeoRaptor: Kenshin leads her back to his cottage... where Allen is sleeping the day away
RufusSafer: Celena went to allen's beside and left the flowers on his chest.
EeoRaptor: Allen stirs slightly... waking up
RufusSafer: Celena smiled down at him'
EeoRaptor: "Celena... " Allen says happily... although he doesnt sound like himself... He moves his hand over and holds it out to her... ignoring the protest of pain his body gives him
RufusSafer: She hugs him. "Allen-sama..."
EeoRaptor: "Im sorry Celena.. I didnt leave .. I dont know how I got here..."
RufusSafer: "It's ok... what happend?"
EeoRaptor: "I dont know... but Im so sick.. It hurts to move... "
RufusSafer: She frowned. "why are you sick?"
EeoRaptor: "Im sick... because I am at a loss... between you and Dilendau... I dont know what to do"
RufusSafer: "What do you mean?"
EeoRaptor: "Celena you wouldnt understand..
RufusSafer: "Why?"
EeoRaptor: "Because... what I feel for you is wrong.."
RufusSafer: "Wrong?"
EeoRaptor: "yes.. I love you more than a brother should..."
RufusSafer: "What does that mean?"
EeoRaptor: "Nothing Celena... It will hurt you to know... "
RufusSafer: "But you could never hurt me."
EeoRaptor: "Yes... I could Celena... "
RufusSafer: "How?"
EeoRaptor: "By touching you wrong.. by kissing you..."
RufusSafer: She blinked at him
EeoRaptor: "Im sorry...."
RufusSafer: She sat on the bed with him
EeoRaptor: "Im a terrible brother..."
RufusSafer: "no, you're not."
EeoRaptor: "Yes I am... Im a pervert...."
RufusSafer: "Shh.. you're a wonderful brother."
EeoRaptor: "no.. not with what I want to do to you..."
RufusSafer: "What?"
EeoRaptor: "Shh..."
RufusSafer: Celena leaned down to hug him
EeoRaptor: Allen pulls his arms around her and squeezes tightly... ignoring the fact that it just about exhausts him
RufusSafer: "love you brother."
EeoRaptor: "I love you too Celena... too much.. " He says.. glad he's too tired to do anything foolish
RufusSafer: Celena let him go and gave him the flowers
EeoRaptor: Allen smiles and holds them
RufusSafer: "For you brother!"
EeoRaptor: "thank you Celena..."
RufusSafer: She smiled. "You been fed?"
EeoRaptor: "yes... these men have been very nice...."
RufusSafer: "Good. They have been taking good care of you?"
EeoRaptor: "yes... I want to come home though"
RufusSafer: "When you are well."
EeoRaptor: Allen frowns
RufusSafer: "I will stay here."
EeoRaptor: "Celena... I dont want to make you upset but... can I talk to him?'
RufusSafer: "Him?"
EeoRaptor: "You know... the.. Monster"
RufusSafer: She sighs. "I'll see.."
EeoRaptor: "Im sorry Celena... I just.... need to discuss a dream I had.. then.. I wont ask again"
RufusSafer: She nods. "I'lll see brother..." she left teh room
EeoRaptor: Allen smells the flowers that Celena gave him and sighs
RufusSafer: they smelled so pritty too
RufusSafer: Xellos appears behind Allen and hugs him
EeoRaptor: Allen squeaks... and nearly falls out of his wheelchair
RufusSafer: "Hello there, cutie..."
EeoRaptor: "Why did you.... nevermind" allen says.. righting himself
RufusSafer: "Such an adorible man.."
EeoRaptor: "An adorable freak..."
RufusSafer: "YEp." Xellos tweaks his nose. "Howabout I bring you home to my wife?"
EeoRaptor: "No... thank you.. I have to take care of Celena.. even though its more her taking care of me now.."
RufusSafer: "Aww.. come on..."
EeoRaptor: "No... Celena will worry"
RufusSafer: "I'll drag her along too."
EeoRaptor: "Dont touch her... she is all I have"
RufusSafer: "Really?" an evil grin splits his face.
EeoRaptor: "... I dont like that look" Allen says... moving to get out of his wheelchair if he needs to
RufusSafer: "Oh come now.."
EeoRaptor: "Leave my sister alone.."
RufusSafer: "Why should I?"
EeoRaptor: "Because I love her and I will do anything to keep her safe"
RufusSafer: "Annnyyytthingggg?"
EeoRaptor: "......... yes... I love her"
RufusSafer: Xellos stroked the side of his face. "You come with me right now and I promise not to touch her."
EeoRaptor: Allen frowns... "fine... but you better be a man of your word..."
RufusSafer: "If I wasn't I'd go after her regardless of what you said or did."
EeoRaptor: Allen nods
RufusSafer: "Good man."
EeoRaptor: "Is your place wheelchair acessible?"
RufusSafer: "Yep. it is now."
EeoRaptor: "Fine... lets go then..."
RufusSafer: Xellos snapped his fingers and they were there... right in front of Lina
EeoRaptor: Lina blinks... and then eyes Allen
EeoRaptor: “You brought a paraplegic?”
RufusSafer: "A new play toy my dear."
EeoRaptor: Lina sighs "What am I supposed to do... change his diapears or something/'
RufusSafer: "No no no." Pulls his arms around his wife
EeoRaptor: "You bring me the strangest things sometimes Xellos.."
RufusSafer: "He's a new toy."
EeoRaptor: "Maybe the kids will like taking him apart...."
RufusSafer: "Maybe.... Lina Jr sure likes to disect people..."
EeoRaptor: "Wait a minute here....... I didnt say you could kill me...'" Allen grumbles
RufusSafer: Xellos chuckles.
EeoRaptor: "I really need to be getting back to my sister.."
RufusSafer: "Na na.. not yet."
EeoRaptor: "She'll be worried...."
RufusSafer: "Not for a while."
EeoRaptor: "Fine... then what are you going to do... other than dissect me........"
RufusSafer: "We don't know yet.." Xellos grins looking him over.
EeoRaptor: Lina sighs "You have fun with your toy okay.. I'll go find my own.. I dont fancy the totally helpless"
RufusSafer: Xellos whisperes in her ear. "What about the sister he spoke of?"
EeoRaptor: Lina raises an eyebrow and reply softly "sister as in young.. squirmy.... and almost totally helpless?"
RufusSafer: "I hear she is a bit.. fiesty.. at times..."
EeoRaptor: "hmm.. where can I find her?"
RufusSafer: Xellos pings her the directions
EeoRaptor: Lina nods and disappears off to find the interesting toy she's been told about
RufusSafer: Celena was busy cleaning her home
EeoRaptor: Lina appears not far from her... and watches silently for a few moments
RufusSafer: Celena is humming to herself as she works
EeoRaptor: Lina slips over to her and wraps her arms around her... "Boo!"
RufusSafer: Celena yelped. "Wha?"
EeoRaptor: "Hello there... " Lina says.... smiling an evilly sweet smile
RufusSafer: Celena wiggles free, staring at her. "How did you get in?"
EeoRaptor: "I aspirated in... just appeared"
RufusSafer: "Why?"
EeoRaptor: "Because.. I want to play.."
RufusSafer: "But.. I no wanna play."
EeoRaptor: "All work and no play makes for a boring life...
RufusSafer: Celena shook her life. "I am not bored."
EeoRaptor: "Well I am and we're gonna play... " Lina says, tracing a finger along Celena's face
RufusSafer: The girl blinks. "What are you doing?"
EeoRaptor: "We're going to play my way... "
RufusSafer: "play?"
EeoRaptor: Lina nods... "youre a nice young one... I was quite small when I was your age"
RufusSafer: "My age?"
EeoRaptor: "You dont look like you could be more than 17... correct... I was so small when I was your age... no breasts... short..." Lina says... reaching foreward to touch her
RufusSafer: Celena blinked. "Breasts?"
EeoRaptor: "Yes... these silly girl" Lina says... squeezing gently
RufusSafer: Celena blinked down at her chest and started shaking...
EeoRaptor: "Scared?"
RufusSafer: Celena's blue violet eyes blinked some more.. and suddenly turned red... and all of a sudden Lina was left grasping cloth
EeoRaptor: Lina blinks "eh?"
RufusSafer: The person before her shrieks for a momment, then drops to her knees
EeoRaptor: Lina steps back... confused
RufusSafer: "H-how.. dare.. you..." A slightly deaper voice spoke from what was just a girl...
EeoRaptor: "How dare I what?" Lina says.. her interest piqued now
RufusSafer: "Touch... HERRRR..." The voice hissed.
EeoRaptor: "oh so is this someone different now?"
RufusSafer: There came a laugh as the person stood.
EeoRaptor: Lina looks at what was just a girl.. .and is now quite obviously a man
RufusSafer: "Lina Inverse... correct?"
EeoRaptor: "How did you know?"
RufusSafer: "I am Dilandau.. the dragon Slayer... you are Lina Inverse.. dragon spooker..."
EeoRaptor: "Hey.. dont insult me young... whatever you may be.. "
RufusSafer: Dil came at her, pushign her over.
EeoRaptor: Lina squeeks... forgetting she's a Mazoku
RufusSafer: "I don't care for annoying girls..."
EeoRaptor: Lina narrows her eyes "Then what do you care for hmm?"
RufusSafer: "Cute boys."
EeoRaptor: "I can do that... you know.. take on any form... " Lina offers..
EeoRaptor: "I need something to do while my husband is busy with his paraplegic"
RufusSafer: "I want my dragon slayers back.. that damn Van killed em all.. so I made sure he and allen broke up.."
EeoRaptor: "Thats one thing I cant do.. bring back the dead..."
RufusSafer: Dil sniffled.
EeoRaptor: "Unless you want Zombies... rotting gooey flesh dripping Zombies.. I can do that "
RufusSafer: "They are not cute."
EeoRaptor: "Sorry then... "
RufusSafer: Dil folded his arms.
EeoRaptor: "so what am I supposed to do now... Xellos will be busy for hours.."
RufusSafer: "Xellos is your.. mate?"
EeoRaptor: "yes…”
RufusSafer: "Why is he busy?"
EeoRaptor: "Oh... he took one and I took the other... exept mine seems to be defective"
RufusSafer: "Why?"
EeoRaptor: "It turned into a man... I wonder if his turned into a woman..."
RufusSafer: "I am not an it." Dil slapped her
EeoRaptor: Lina glowers at him "Youre an it.. your both.. can I see what you look like under your clothes?"
RufusSafer: "I'm a guy right now.. Celena is a girl.."
EeoRaptor: "But how can you be both?"
RufusSafer: "Fate changed me.'
EeoRaptor: "Interesting... and you havent killed yourself yet..."
RufusSafer: "Why should I?"
EeoRaptor: "Oh.. it just seems you are quite mental..."
RufusSafer: "that does not mean I want to die.. I am mental because I DIDN'T want to die..."
EeoRaptor: "Oooh... so you'd fight pretty hard if I decided to kill you?"
RufusSafer: "Of course..."
EeoRaptor: "Want to play that way then? Its a fun game and I always win"
RufusSafer: "Death?"
EeoRaptor: "Yes.. " Lina says.. gathering a spell into her hand
RufusSafer: Dil folded his arms and whistled... his melf appeared.
EeoRaptor: "ooooh.. dont think that will help you much"
EeoRaptor: "How many sanity points did that cost?"
RufusSafer: Dil jumped up into the cockpit.
EeoRaptor: Lina takes to the air... hovering in front of and just above his melef
RufusSafer: Dil laughed insanly, thrusting a liquid metal dagger at her
EeoRaptor: Lina titters and dodging it... returning the blast with her own "present"
RufusSafer: The melf scorched but the cape went around it then the entire red thing vanished
EeoRaptor: Lina blinks "You can shift dimensions?"
RufusSafer: "nooo.." Laughder and suddenly something hitting her from behind
EeoRaptor: Lina grunts and tumbles from the air... hitting the ground pretty hard
RufusSafer: more laughder and the Melf appeared over her, the liquid metal block poised over her body
EeoRaptor: Lina barely has time to shake off the former attack and shift several feet away... from where the ground is suddenly made into a crater
RufusSafer: "Hmph..." The melf vanished from site again
EeoRaptor: Lina looks about nervously... the thing can do quite a bit of damage... despite its attacks being non magical
RufusSafer: he was dangerous!
EeoRaptor: Lina wonders if she should turn tail and run..... this is alien technology... and her kind doesnt have a defense for it
RufusSafer: He laughed as he appeared before her again, trying to take her out
EeoRaptor: Lina looks up at the mech towering over her "Uh.. I think Im done playing now...."
RufusSafer: "Die! die! die!!!!" He turned on the flame thrower
EeoRaptor: Lina squeeks and is nearly incinerated...
RufusSafer: "BURRRNN!!! BURRRN!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
EeoRaptor: "Why did I get the insane one.. ." Lina mutters... patting out the fire on her clothing
RufusSafer: because she had bad luck some times
EeoRaptor: Lina transfers herself some distance away and perches in a tree.. panting... this bugger is nuts.. and fast... and it would help if she could see him
RufusSafer: but he had some sort of cloaking feild
EeoRaptor: Which was non-magical.. and non detectable
RufusSafer: not good for a pure magic user to fight
EeoRaptor: Lina sighs.... and leans against the trunk of the tree... meaning to talk to Xellos
RufusSafer: Xellos appeared by her.
EeoRaptor: "There you are... done playing?"
RufusSafer: "yep.. have fun?"
EeoRaptor: "no. I almost got killed"
RufusSafer: "Aww... more fiesty then you'd hoped?"
EeoRaptor: "Yes... insanely fiesty..."
RufusSafer: "How so?"
EeoRaptor: "Well look over there... " Lina says gesturing to the crater and fires
RufusSafer: "Oh my.." Xellos sweatdropped and grinned to try and cover it.
EeoRaptor: "Lord knows where his is....... he can cloak"
RufusSafer: "Oh my... HE??”
EeoRaptor: "Yes... I got a little sex change when I tried to touch..."
RufusSafer: "Sex change?"
EeoRaptor: "Yes.. she became a he..."
RufusSafer: "Oh my..."
EeoRaptor: "Very interesting... "
RufusSafer: "That it is."
EeoRaptor: "Well I hope you enjoyed yourself anyway..."
RufusSafer: "Nah, not really."
EeoRaptor: "Figured... didnt know what you wanted with that guy anyway"
RufusSafer: "just to play."
EeoRaptor: "Well.. I hope you disposed of him properly... last one you left I found a week later and it was gross..."
RufusSafer: "Which one was that?"
EeoRaptor: "was too decayed to even recognize.."
RufusSafer: "What I do to that one?"
EeoRaptor: "Looks like you skinned him alive..."
RufusSafer: "Probably did."
EeoRaptor: "you cant even remember your victims... honestly"
RufusSafer: "No I can't..."
EeoRaptor: Lina pats him on the head "Shall we go home?"
RufusSafer: "Yep.. our kids are waiting..."
EeoRaptor: "Oh good... I have to tell our daughter to clean her room..."
RufusSafer: "Ya.. she won't listen to me.."
EeoRaptor: "Come on... before that freak finds us..."
RufusSafer: Xellos ports them back to their home
EeoRaptor: Xellos jr is waiting there for them ... eyeying his sister warily
RufusSafer: Lina jr ports a frog down his shirt
EeoRaptor: Xellos Jr growls.. "this is why I dont ever spend time at home.. "
RufusSafer: Lina jr giggled
RufusSafer: Xellos patted his kids on the head.
EeoRaptor: "Is there any reason I HAVE to be here" Xellos Jr grumbles
RufusSafer: "You are family.":
EeoRaptor: "If I didnt look like him I'd think I was adopted..."
RufusSafer: Xellos picked his son up. "Now now.."
EeoRaptor: "hmph...'
RufusSafer: "Come on son, we love you..."
EeoRaptor: "I know... but why am I normal... and you are all... freaks..."
RufusSafer: "We're all freaks.. you are too.
EeoRaptor: "Funny I dont feel like one..."
RufusSafer: "Nor do we.."
EeoRaptor: He sighs "I dont have a sick frog fetish...'
RufusSafer: "That's your sister.. frogs and rats..."
EeoRaptor: "horrid things"
RufusSafer: "You are strange too boy."
EeoRaptor: ".... "
RufusSafer: Xellos hugged him. "Ah, gotta love my kids."
EeoRaptor: Lina settles down and examines her singe marks
RufusSafer: Xellos sat down, letting his son go
EeoRaptor: Xellos Jr moves off slightly and sits down by himself... not minding his parents too much but his sister...
RufusSafer: She sticks her tongue out at him
EeoRaptor: He ignores her and pulls out a book
RufusSafer: She smiles. "What's for dinner mamma?"
EeoRaptor: "Dont know.. I'll make something when Im finished thinking about how to blow that freak of nature up"
RufusSafer: "WE eat him?"
EeoRaptor: "... if you can catch him"
EeoRaptor: "Isnt there any of that wheelchair guy leftover? I dont feel like cooking..."
RufusSafer: Xellos nodded. "Sure..." He goes off to grab Allen
EeoRaptor: Lina chews on her thumb nail.. bothered by that freak.... he could have killed her
RufusSafer: Xellos comes back sweatdropping. "Um.. he's missing..."
EeoRaptor: "Missing... or did you forget where you left him again.. " Lina teases
RufusSafer: "Um... missing.. I think."
EeoRaptor: "How can a man bound to a wheelchair and probably mangled get away Xellos..."
RufusSafer: "Well.. uh.. I dunno... someone must have found him..."
EeoRaptor: Lina puts her hand on her head "Great... someone found thier way in here..."
RufusSafer: Xellos sweatdrooped.. ready to get hit by his wife
EeoRaptor: Lina leans her head back and closes her eyes "Find out how they got in... and make sure its remedied..."
RufusSafer: "Um.. yes dear..."
EeoRaptor: "Last thing I need is for a door to door salesman get in..."
RufusSafer: Xellos sweatdropped and ran
EeoRaptor: Lina heads off to her room to change into some non burnt clothing
RufusSafer: Xellos looked around, wondering where Allen got to
EeoRaptor: Lina was right tho... how far could he have gotten
RufusSafer: Xellos was concerned about it
EeoRaptor: And who could have gotten in to help him... nobody... at least.... not that he could fathoom
RufusSafer: unless.. that guy had...
EeoRaptor: The one that had almost killed Lina... how could he have... unless.. he..
RufusSafer: He found his way here and saved his/her brother
EeoRaptor: That meant they werent safe..... he might still be there.. lurking
RufusSafer: That made Xellos frown.. what if his kids were in trouble?
EeoRaptor: That would be bad.... despite being a mazoku he felt .. love for them..
RufusSafer: they were HIS kids...
EeoRaptor: he couldnt imagine harm coming to them... but... now there was someone loose in his very own home
RufusSafer: someone insane
EeoRaptor: He had better warn everyone before things happened
RufusSafer: He went back to his kids
RufusSafer: Xellos hugged em
EeoRaptor: Xellos jr squirms a little
RufusSafer: "not safe here."
EeoRaptor: "not safe?"
RufusSafer: "Ya.. there is a... bad thing.. in the house.":
EeoRaptor: "Then... shouldnt we leave?"
RufusSafer: Xellos nods. "Yep.. come on son."
EeoRaptor: "what about mom..? and”.. begrudgingly.. “sis?"
RufusSafer: "Um.. just you and me for now.. your mom can take care of herself."
EeoRaptor: "Okay... I can deal with that" he says with an impish smile.. glad to be getting away from those two for a while
RufusSafer: Xellos picked up his son and placed him on his shoulders. "Up for some time travel?"
EeoRaptor: "Where we gonna go?'
RufusSafer: "To a few years ago.. before i met your mom."
EeoRaptor: "A few years ago?"
RufusSafer: Xellos nods. "Yes."
EeoRaptor: "Oooh time travel.. teach me that ?"
RufusSafer: Xellos grins. "tehn learn."
EeoRaptor: Xellos Jr Grins... thinking about how he can get his sister before she gets him
RufusSafer: Xellos pops back in time... the point of time? When Lina's being dragged around by Zel after he rescued her from his own stronghold...
EeoRaptor: "where we at?" Xellos Jr asks...
RufusSafer: They were almost right next to Lina and Zel
EeoRaptor: "is that mom?" He squeeks.. not recognizing her for her size and.... well... size
RufusSafer: Xellos nods. "yep. while she was.. human..."
EeoRaptor: "she's so ... small...."
RufusSafer: "Yep.." Lina can hear them though.. and Zel is gawking at them
EeoRaptor: Lina glares at Zelgadis "more of your lackeys to make fun of me?"
RufusSafer: Zelgadis shrugs. "I got no clue who they are..."
EeoRaptor: "You sure we should be here? Isnt this going to mess up our time?" Xellos Jr asks his father
RufusSafer: Xellos sets his son down. "Don't worry.. it won't effect anything."
EeoRaptor: "Who the heck... " Lina says... flustered even more than she already was by her capture
RufusSafer: Xellos smiled at her and patted her on the head quite suddenly. "Don't worry Lina-sama."
EeoRaptor: Lina growls at him.
EeoRaptor: "So... what are we gonna do?" Xellos Jr asks.. tugging his father's cape
RufusSafer: "Do? anything we please my son."
EeoRaptor: "Zelgadis... can we move away from these people.. they're freaking me out and . arent we supposed to be making a hasty escape?"
RufusSafer: Zelgadis nodded. "that we are.. but.. how did he know your name?"
EeoRaptor: "I dont know... lots of people know my name I guess.. I am a powerful sorceress... ne?"
RufusSafer: "He called you.. Lina-sama... as if he knows you very well..."
EeoRaptor: "... well I dont know him... maybe I blew him up once before.. "
RufusSafer: "nope." Xellos smiles at her. "Not yet at least..."
EeoRaptor: "Look you.. I dont know who you are but we're in a mess of trouble so if you dont mind taking yourself and your little... clone of yourself and disappearing back to wherever you came from...."
RufusSafer: "Clone of myself? He's my son."
EeoRaptor: "Whatever..."
RufusSafer: "Ah, just like the Lina I know in my time..."
EeoRaptor: "Who the heck are you!!"
RufusSafer: "Me? I'm Xellos." He smiles at her.
EeoRaptor: "Yes.. who do you think im talking to... I already know everyone else here... cept for the mini-you"
RufusSafer: "This is Xellos jr!"
EeoRaptor: "Okay.. now... who are you in relation to me... why do I care that either one of you exists?"
RufusSafer: "Oh... well." Xellos smiled. "We're from about 6 years or so in the future..."
EeoRaptor: "that helps.. come on Zelgadis... before some paradox happens..."
RufusSafer: "Just wait till Lina jr comes looking for us.." Xellos smiled as he walked off.
EeoRaptor: Lina blinks.. and pales "Did he just say..... "
RufusSafer: Zelgadis sweatdropped. "Lina... jr??"
EeoRaptor: Lina crumples to the ground... that was just too much for her to take
RufusSafer: Zelgadis had to carry her for a while.. dumping some water opn her face.
EeoRaptor: She opens her crimson eyes... "Ugh.. I had a strange dream... "
RufusSafer: "What sort of dream?"
EeoRaptor: "Some freak... with purple hair... made claims that I was .. I had kids... "
RufusSafer: "That was no dream..."
EeoRaptor: "It wasnt.... "
RufusSafer: "No... that was some guy from the future..."
EeoRaptor: "?"
EeoRaptor: "Why am I running away then?"
RufusSafer: Zel sighed and handed her some more water. "Running away?"
EeoRaptor: "From Rezo...."
EeoRaptor: "If thats my future... do I want one?"
RufusSafer: "Because we must keep moving."
EeoRaptor: "Okay... must.. keep moving... then"
RufusSafer: Meanwhile Xellos walked into town with his son... trying to find Gourry
EeoRaptor: "Where we goin now ?"
RufusSafer: "To find the braindead swordsman." Xellos smiled.
EeoRaptor: "Oh... him... why?"
RufusSafer: "For some.. fun..."
EeoRaptor: "Whatcha gonna do to him?"
RufusSafer: "You'll see son..." Xellos whistled as he entered the town he knew gourry was in
EeoRaptor: Xellos Jr tags along.... looking around ... he rarely leaves his little part of the world
RufusSafer: Xellos spotted the dumb blonde and walked to him
EeoRaptor: Gourry was still asking around with his crude drawing of Lina
RufusSafer: Xellos tapped him on the shoulder. '
RufusSafer: "Hello there."
EeoRaptor: Gourry turns around and blinks at him
RufusSafer: "I see you are looking for someone."
EeoRaptor: "Yes.. have you seen her?" He asks.. holding out the picture
RufusSafer: Xellos took the picture and pretended to study it. "What is this? Are you hunting Mazoku my friend?"
EeoRaptor: "Mazoku... no... this is my friend Lina.. thats what she looks like..."
RufusSafer: Xellos chuckled. "Ah yes, Lina inverse?" Xellos leaned in to whisper in Gourry's ear, "But she is a Mazoku.. she takes the form of young sorcresess to lure kindhearted men to their doom.. she strings them along for a while, gets them to trust her.. then one night while they least expect it she sucks out their souls and kills them in their sleep."
EeoRaptor: Gourry blinks "She... does?"
RufusSafer: Xellos nodded. "Yep. She's got a great act does she not? Very convincing it is..."
EeoRaptor: Gourry looks puzzled... as if trying to work things out in his head.
RufusSafer: Xellos smiled.
EeoRaptor: "So.. what should I do?"
RufusSafer: "Oh.. stay with her for now but never let your guard down on her..."
EeoRaptor: Gourry nods "Thanks for the advice....."
RufusSafer: "Good man.. she's down by the lake with her new 'rock' friend.'
EeoRaptor: "Rock friend?" Gourry asks... scratching his head
RufusSafer: "Named Zelgadis."
EeoRaptor: "Thats the same guy that was attacking us earlier... though.. I think..."
RufusSafer: "You'll grow to like him gourry..."
EeoRaptor: "Uhh... okay... which way is the lake?"
RufusSafer: Xellos pointed. "That way my good man."
EeoRaptor: "Thanks!" Gourry says and trots off in that direction
RufusSafer: Zelgadis is still trying to calm Lina down.
EeoRaptor: "Its just a mind game... a trick.. right.........?" Lina asks herself....
RufusSafer: "What is Lina?"
EeoRaptor: "That man.. that kid..."
RufusSafer: "I saw them too but.. well.. they could have been illisions or something..."
EeoRaptor: "They had to have been... "

RufusSafer: Sano swings Kenny into his arms and cuddles him
EeoRaptor: Kenny squeeks... wondering whats gotten into sano
RufusSafer: Sano wants to put him in a dress and head into town
EeoRaptor: Kenshin looks at the dress dubiously
RufusSafer: "You make such a cute girl Kennyyy." Sano kisses him and escorts him to town
EeoRaptor: Kenshin sighs... feeling ridiculous but going along with what Sano wants...
RufusSafer: Suddenly.. Sano pushes Kenshin into an ally... and ducks there himself.
EeoRaptor: "sano?"
RufusSafer: "I... I.. I .. saw... Yahiko!!"
EeoRaptor: "Yahiko!! And.. you put me in a dress!!"
RufusSafer: "Shhh.. he'll hear us!"
EeoRaptor: Kenshin closes his eyes.. "just... great"
RufusSafer: Sano pulls Kenshin into the bar they are standing next to.
EeoRaptor: Kenshin mutters to himself.. wanting his old clothes and sword back... he feels most naked without that
RufusSafer: His sword is strapped to his back though under his dress... in the bar there is a young man with black hair crying to himself
EeoRaptor: Its still not where it should be... "Sano... I want to go home..."
RufusSafer: Sano sighed. "We're getting a new home remember?"
RufusSafer: He sat down at the bar and blinked at the crying boy.
EeoRaptor: Kenshin sighs and sits at the bar.. miserable and wondering why Sano didnt have to wear the dress
RufusSafer: Probably because SAno looks way to masculen....
RufusSafer: The boy is muttering to himself.
EeoRaptor: Still... dresses are uncomfortable
RufusSafer: "Allen... alllen...."
EeoRaptor: Kenshin looks at Sano "Wasnt that the name of the guy we were taking care of?"
RufusSafer: Sano nodded. "Yes.. it was.." that's when the boy suddenly grabbed him. "ALLEN?? WHERE IS ALLEN?!!!!"
RufusSafer: Sano sweatdrops.
EeoRaptor: "He's with his sister..." Kenshin says.. moving to pry the boy from Sano
RufusSafer: Van grabbed Kenshin's dress front. "Where??!! No... Dilandau has him!!! ARg!!! Damn him!! HE BURNT MY CITY TO THE GROUND AND ALLEN'S!!! HOW COULD ALLEN BE IN LOVE WITH THAT THING!!!" Van bursts into tears and burries himself against Kenshin.
EeoRaptor: "Dilendau? He was with a little girl... she's going to have a hard time caring for him..."
RufusSafer: "No... Celena and Dilandau are the same person... Celena's just what's left of his sister... Dil is the insane monster that she became..."
EeoRaptor: Kenshin blinks "ehh...?"
RufusSafer: "Take me to him NOW!!"
EeoRaptor: "He was at the cottage last we left him..."
RufusSafer: Van starts shaking Kenshin. "Please.. you gotta take me there!" He then drags Kenshin out the door.. leaving Sano to blink at the bar
EeoRaptor: "No.. need to drag... " Kenshin urks...
RufusSafer: Van cries some more, just missing the boy that is heading into the bar as he pulls on Kenshin
RufusSafer: Sano tries to dive behind the bar when he spots Yahiko.
EeoRaptor: Yahiko pounces Sano and chews on his head
RufusSafer: "AHH!!!!!" Sano tries to throw him off
EeoRaptor: "Where the hell have you been!"
RufusSafer: "Um.. traveling..." Sano stood up
EeoRaptor: "Youre not going anywhere until you help me find Kaoru"
RufusSafer: Sano blinked his eyes. "Eh?"
"Kaoru's disappeared...."
RufusSafer: "WHAT??" Sano bolted to his feet. "Damn.. I'll go find Ken..."
EeoRaptor: "Ken... you know where he is??"
RufusSafer: "Um.. he just got dragged out by that kid.." Sano glances at the door,.
EeoRaptor: "He did...?"
RufusSafer: Sano noddes "Where could they have gone? Oh right! the cabin we were stayign in."
EeoRaptor: "Youre.. travelling with him then?"
RufusSafer: "Yes... why?"
EeoRaptor: "Why didnt you invite me?
RufusSafer: "um..." Sano sweatdrops.
EeoRaptor: "Nevermind... Kenshin never wanted me to learn his stuff... anyway... lets go"
RufusSafer: Sano fews and heads off for the cabin... not knowing that Van and Kenshin had gotten.. deleayed elsewhere in the city.
RufusSafer: "Vannn...." An evil, insanity laced, voice muttered. It was Dil, dressed like dil used to dress... pointing a sword at him.
EeoRaptor: Kenshin eeps... reaching for the sword at his side which isnt there
RufusSafer: "I see you got... a girl with you?"
EeoRaptor: Kenshin decides to play along with that... hoping he can perhaps surprise the weirdo
RufusSafer: Dil chuckled a little as Van glared, gripping his own sword.
EeoRaptor: Kenshin reaches behind his back for his own sword.. wondering how he;s going to fight in a dress
RufusSafer: The insane one laughed. "Maybe I should just burn this whole town down to get you Van..."
EeoRaptor: Kenshin draws "Im afraid I cant let you do that..."
RufusSafer: "And you think you can stop me?"
EeoRaptor: "Ive stopped many before..."
RufusSafer: "And what makes you think you can stop me?"
EeoRaptor: "Because I am Battousai the Manslayer..."
RufusSafer: Dil raises an eyebrow. "Ohhh... I get it... a cross dresser.. heh heh.. the irony..."
EeoRaptor: "Im not a cross dresser.. this wasnt my idea... " Kenshin says hotly...
RufusSafer: Dilandua laughs again. "It wasn't my idea to get turned into a man either..."
EeoRaptor: Kenshin blanches... "Youre that little girl arent you?"
RufusSafer: "Oh yes.. I remember you now..." dil laughed. "Oh yes, Celena?"
EeoRaptor: "shouldnt you be taking care of your brother? Last I left he was very sick..."
RufusSafer: "No need for now... right now my objective is to... KILL VAN!"
EeoRaptor: "nobody is going to die... " Kenshin says dangerously
RufusSafer: "Oh yes... people will die.. I'll either get what i want or kill as many people as I can trying to get at him..."
EeoRaptor: "I wont let you..."
RufusSafer: "Oh? And why not?"
EeoRaptor: "Because.. I serve and protect.. for my past was a bloody one... and I owe it to the world:
RufusSafer: "That's a good one..."
EeoRaptor: ".... take your fight away from this city..."
RufusSafer: "Why should I?"
EeoRaptor: "Because I said to.." Kenshin says.. his eyes darkening
RufusSafer: Van blinks at Kenshin then grips his sword hard. "Where is Allen?"
RufusSafer: "You will never have him again Van.. HE'S MINE! NO ONE WILL EVER TAKE HIM FROM ME AGAIN!!!!!!!"
EeoRaptor: "nutso.." kenshin mutters
RufusSafer: Dil charges at them
EeoRaptor: Kenshin stands calmly to meet Dil... his experience telling him a charge is always a bad idea
RufusSafer: But Dil isn't after him.. he's after Van, so swings down at the king
EeoRaptor: Kenshin winces and pokes his sword in to Deflect Dil's
RufusSafer: Dil growled, clashing his sword against Ken's. "Grrr... for that.. you can join his fate..."
EeoRaptor: Kenshin grimaces at Dil ... and moves Closer to Van "look... we have to get him out of the city.. my turn to drag you'
RufusSafer: Van blinks at Kenshin and yelps as he is dragged, watching Dil give them chase.
EeoRaptor: Kenshin pulls him along... heading out of the city and in the general direction of the cabin...
RufusSafer: Meanwhile.. Sano is looking around the cabin wondering where Allen was
EeoRaptor: He wasnt there.... neither was the wheelchair
RufusSafer: Sano scratched the back of his head. "This is strange... KENNNYYY!!!??"
EeoRaptor: "Kenny?" Yahiko asks.. looking around "they're not here..."
RufusSafer: Sano punches the only bed in the place. "Damn it!"
EeoRaptor: "Whats going on Sano?"
RufusSafer: "He's not here..."
EeoRaptor: "I can see that... but.. "
RufusSafer: "But what?"
EeoRaptor: "I dunno.. one bed?"
RufusSafer: Sano's eyes flick at him.. and suddenly the idea that that day at the springs wasn't a dream comes to Yahiko's head.
EeoRaptor: "You... two... that wasnt... a dream.........'
RufusSafer: "Heh... you remember that eh?"
EeoRaptor: "Yes... thought it was a terrible dream... "
RufusSafer: "Terrible?" Sano slugs him but not too hard.
EeoRaptor: Yahiko winces.. and turns away "Guess theres no need for you to help me find Kaoru... then.."
RufusSafer: "What?"
EeoRaptor: "Kenshin isnt going to want to find her... he's already got someone.... why bother ... right?
RufusSafer: "Kenshin will help find her because he is a good person."
EeoRaptor: "Where is he anyway... " Yahiko asks... changing the subject
RufusSafer: "As I said.. I don't know!"
EeoRaptor: "Then what the hell do we do?"
RufusSafer: "I... Don't... KNOW!"
RufusSafer: Dil meanwhile was clashing swords with Ken as Van sighed, watching.
EeoRaptor: Kenshin was having a little trouble... the sheer insanity of this man was making fighting him difficult
RufusSafer: Because how do you preditct the actions of one that is insane? This was worse then fighting Sano that time
EeoRaptor: And he took crazy chances.. as if he didnt care about getting killed...
RufusSafer: He just wanted to destroy the young king that had been crying only a short time ago.
EeoRaptor: Kenshin didnt like to get in fights like this... he was losing slowly... getting worn down by the freak
RufusSafer: The freak who couldn't stop laughing
EeoRaptor: Kenshin puts his sword up... not sure what to do...
RufusSafer: "Going to die?" The insane man laughed, ready to bring his sword down again.
EeoRaptor: "If that is my fate..."
RufusSafer: "Oh goody.. it's been a while since I've split blood..."
EeoRaptor: Kenshin frowns.... he might just get his wish
RufusSafer: Dil's sword moved down quite fast.... right at Kenshin
EeoRaptor: Kenshin braces himself.. hoping he can block...
RufusSafer: With dil's arms up like that he was leaving himself quite open...
EeoRaptor: Kenshin strikes... trying not to delve too deep lest he kill him
RufusSafer: The sword tumbled out of the insane youth's hands
RufusSafer: "Y-you.... bastard..."
EeoRaptor: "I havent spilled blood in a long time either.. do not tempt me.. "
RufusSafer: Dil looked down at the wound
EeoRaptor: "A little deeper and it would have severed your brachial artery..."
RufusSafer: There was a look of shock and surprise on his face... and a little blood
RufusSafer: Van gets off the tree he was leaned against and comes over, sword in hand
EeoRaptor: Kenshin leans over and picks up Dil's sword
RufusSafer: Dil doubles over, grasping a hand to teh wound.
EeoRaptor: "Are you going to calm down now?"
RufusSafer: "I'll.... g-get..y ou..."
RufusSafer: Van moved his sword up under Dil's chin, eyes narrowed.
EeoRaptor: Kenshin shakes his head at Van "Killing him isnt the answer.... he needs mental help... "
RufusSafer: "What sort of help?" Van turned his eyes to look at Kenshin
EeoRaptor: "There is innocence in him. just... he cant seem to get the two to work together.."
RufusSafer: Van sighed. "And I think he tore me and Allen appart... he hates me so much..."
EeoRaptor: "we should get to Allen.... he isnt well.. "
RufusSafer: "That's.... n-no-t... p-po..ss...ible..." Dil weezes
EeoRaptor: "Why.. isnt it possible?"
RufusSafer: Dil slowly looked up at Kenshin... his eyes going in and out between red and blue-violet.
EeoRaptor: "Where is Allen?" Kenshin asks... stripping some of his dress off to use as bandages
RufusSafer: Dil's eyes brimmed with tears
EeoRaptor: Kenshin frowns "What happened to him?"
RufusSafer: Dil fell to the ground, not saying, but sobbing
EeoRaptor: Kenshin looks at Van worriedly
RufusSafer: Van looked absolutly horrified.. as if knowing what it could be
EeoRaptor: "Come... lets go back to the cabin and figure... out what to do'
RufusSafer: Van shook his head and suddenly his shirt ripped.. his wings tearing free
EeoRaptor: Kenshin steps back... startled
RufusSafer: "ALLLEEENNN!!!!!" Van screams, taking off into the air.
EeoRaptor: Kenshin watches him fly.. wondering what to do now.. he's got a sobbing.. well he's not quite sure....
RufusSafer: Dil had passed out since then.. laying fast first in the dirt and grime.
EeoRaptor: Kenshin sighs and picks the passed out Dilendau and starts back to the cabin... where he is sure Sano must be waiting
RufusSafer: Sano was... talking with Yahiko.
EeoRaptor: Kenshin walks in .. not interrupting them as he puts Dilendau on the bed
RufusSafer: Yahiko is suddenly all over Kenshin
EeoRaptor: Kenshin urks.. "Yahiko!."
RufusSafer: "hah hah! You're dressed like a girrrllll!!!"
EeoRaptor: "Shush.. this is not a time to be acting like a child"
RufusSafer: "Oh right..." He frowns and sits on the bed. "Karou has been kidnapped..."
EeoRaptor: "She has?" Kenshin asks... another worry added to the pile
RufusSafer: He nodded, sniffling. "It's why I'm in this city looking for her..."
EeoRaptor: "On top of that.. this boy's brother is apparently dead... " Kenshin says.. motioning to the unconcious Dilendau
RufusSafer: Sano frowned. "Are you sure?"
EeoRaptor: "he wouldnt tell me... he said it was not possible to go to where Allen was.. and started sobbing... "
RufusSafer: Sano looked down and sighed. "Damn ittt!"
EeoRaptor: "Unless it was all a ruse to upset taht winged boy" Kenshin says... poking Dilendau experimentally
RufusSafer: Dil didn't move when poked..
EeoRaptor: Kenshin sighs
EeoRaptor: "I dont know what to do with him... but... we need to find Kaoru right?"
RufusSafer: His eyes were wide opn though... he could have been dead if his chest didn't rise and fall ever so much.
RufusSafer: Sano nodded. "That we do."
EeoRaptor: "Should one of us stay here....?"
RufusSafer: Sano looked at the boy. "Kenshin. he doesn't look well..."
EeoRaptor: "I know... "
RufusSafer: "What should we do about it?"
EeoRaptor: "He's in shock... "
RufusSafer: "In Shock?"
EeoRaptor: "Yahiko... heat some water for me... I need to clean his wound...."
RufusSafer: The boy nodded and ran off to do just that.
EeoRaptor: Kenshin removes Dilendau's shirt... and examines the cut he made "its emotional and physical.. get some blankets Sano?"
RufusSafer: Sano did so... and Kenshin noticed that Dil wasn't male any more.
EeoRaptor: Kenshin covers him... her up with the blanket that is on the bed.. leaving the wound uncovered
RufusSafer: Though that was kinda hard seeing where the wound stabbed into.... one of 'her' breasts actually...
EeoRaptor: Kenshin waits patiently for Yahiko.. grinding some herbs in a bowl with a pestle to ready t hem
RufusSafer: Yahiko comes abck and stops when he sees.. that the 'boy' they brought in is actually a girl.
EeoRaptor: Kenshin waves him over "I'll explain later.." and takes the heated water from him... sprinkling the herbs in and making a poultice
RufusSafer: "What happend to her?"
EeoRaptor: "She got in a swordfight with me..'
EeoRaptor: Kenshin presses the poultice on the wound
RufusSafer: "But.. why is she.. hurt?" Yahiko looked shocked.
EeoRaptor: "I cut her..."
RufusSafer: "YOU WHAT??!!"
EeoRaptor: "shh Yahiko..."
RufusSafer: "WHY??"
EeoRaptor: "Because.. she was going to kill me"
RufusSafer: "She's... that... skilled?"
EeoRaptor: "It wasnt a she when I fought her..."
RufusSafer: "What?"
EeoRaptor: "This person is two parts... one that is mad the other innocent... they cant exist at the same time apparently"
RufusSafer: Yahiko brought over the water.

RufusSafer: The girl's breathing was steady, meaning she was going to be ok in that part.. but the fact that her eyes were wide open and not reacting to anything... that could only be some form of shock. Yahiko just watched in his own quiet shock over what Kenshin had told him

EeoRaptor: "She'll ... he'll... whatever... will be alright... once they get over the mental part of it..." Kenshin says...

RufusSafer: Sano looked at Kenshin. "And how does that heal?"

EeoRaptor: "Time..."

RufusSafer: He nods. "Alright..."

RufusSafer: Meanwhile.. through a storm.. Van is flying... tears in his eyes.

EeoRaptor: Was it true that Allen was dead?

RufusSafer: Or was he just.. missplaced? What had happend? He didn't care.. he'd fly till he found him.. one way or the other

EeoRaptor: The way dilendau had acted... Allen wasnt missplaced....

RufusSafer: but that's why he was flying.. flying till he dropped... and at this hieght and dampness.. it would surely be to his own death.. but it ddidn't matter if all he loved was gone

EeoRaptor: But what if he wasnt gone.. could he use... what Hitomi had taught him so long ago to find him?

RufusSafer: he shut his eyes as he flew... picturing Allen in his mind... begging.. begging to be flown to him

RufusSafer: Van cried out with his mind

EeoRaptor: Allen is miserable where he is... alone... and weak... he was just dumped there uncerimoniously by that Mazoku bitch after she'd found his hiding spot

RufusSafer: Van's cry of allen's name echoed throughout where he was

EeoRaptor: "Van... ?"

RufusSafer: Van was calling for him?

EeoRaptor: "Van.. I hear you... where are you...?"

RufusSafer: "aLLELEENNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!" He was screaming

EeoRaptor: Allen whimpers and crawls out from where he had curled.. pulling himself up "Vaaan!"

RufusSafer: The sky was shining.. and suddenly it flared with color

EeoRaptor: Allen looks up... blinking.... his hopes rising quickly

RufusSafer: Van is caught in the beam... pulled into the spot allen is in.

EeoRaptor: Allen whimpers... stretching out his arms to the light

RufusSafer: Van tumbles out from the sky.. his wings soo damp from t he storm

EeoRaptor: Allen catches him falling back with the wet winged boy in his arms

RufusSafer: Van was out cold... having flown until he was exhasted.

EeoRaptor: Allen sobs and cuddles him... fearing him dead

RufusSafer: He is damp from the rain... but breathing.. soft against Allen's skin

EeoRaptor: Allen pulls him back into the bramble bush he was hiding in.. its so thick it forms a bit of a hut around them... protected from wind and rain

RufusSafer: The boy seems so delicate now, wet wings draped out behind him

EeoRaptor: Allen cuddles against him... trying to keep him warm.. "I missed you so much.. but.. you hate me... dont you...

RufusSafer: But how could he hate Allen if he nearly died trying to find him?

EeoRaptor: Allen didnt know... but he was glad for the company

RufusSafer: Van was still warm but covered in water

RufusSafer: Van was still warm but covered in water

EeoRaptor: Allen pulls Van's head to rest against his chest... holding him gently.. lovingly... wishing he could keep him...

RufusSafer: maybe he could this time

EeoRaptor: It would upset his ... Sister's other half... he.. knew he hated Van

RufusSafer: That's when it hit through Allen's mind.. what if Dil had driven them appart to begin with?

EeoRaptor: He wouldnt have.... it . Van was mad at him for being a playboy

RufusSafer: Or was he?

EeoRaptor: He'd turned his back on him

RufusSafer: but he hadn't been the one to walk away...

EeoRaptor: "van.. "

RufusSafer: Van started to cry in his sleep

EeoRaptor: "Shhh.... Van..." Allen whispers

RufusSafer: "Allen.... allennn...."

EeoRaptor: "Im here Van..... "

RufusSafer: Van's arms reach up.. he's still in his dream.. thinking the voice is a dream as well. "Why.. why did you.. leave me?"

EeoRaptor: Allen takes the arms and wraps them around himself "Im sorry... Van.."

RufusSafer: Van was sobbing.

EeoRaptor: "I thought you wanted me to go..."

RufusSafer: "No.. Never.. leave.. me..."

EeoRaptor: "I wont.. if thats what you really want when you wake"

RufusSafer: "Don't ever go..." Van was gripping him tight now

EeoRaptor: "I wont.... shh.. '

RufusSafer: He was still asleep, pressed against his lover

EeoRaptor: "im here for you.... just rest...'

RufusSafer: "Allenn.?"

EeoRaptor: "Shh.. Van..."

RufusSafer: "Allen?"

EeoRaptor: "You awake?"

RufusSafer: Van's eyes flicker

EeoRaptor: "Vann?"

RufusSafer: "Allen?" His breathe catches in his throat

EeoRaptor: "Are you okay?"

RufusSafer: "You're... ALIVE!!" Van clutches him tightly, burring his head against him and crying hard

EeoRaptor: "Of course Im alive"

RufusSafer: "WE thought.. you... died... when.. Celena.... started.. crying.. when you were.. mentioned..."

EeoRaptor: "Celena? Is she okay?"

RufusSafer: "No.. last i saw.. she had been stabbed.."

EeoRaptor: "Stabbed??!!?"

RufusSafer: Van nods. "Yes..."

EeoRaptor: "I.. have to get to her... "

RufusSafer: Van tears up again

EeoRaptor: "Van.... please... dont cry..."

RufusSafer: "Don't leave me Allen.. please..."

EeoRaptor: "Van... I....'

RufusSafer: Van was crying into him now

EeoRaptor: "Van.. I love you... " Allen whispers... holding him tight and running fingers through his hair

RufusSafer: "I love you.. too."

RufusSafer: The girl on Sano and Ken's bed sat up suddenly, panting.. the blanket covering her nude top falling off.

EeoRaptor: Kenshin blinks... and looks away

RufusSafer: She doesn't even notice for a bit, swinging her legs off the bed and looking around.

EeoRaptor: "Pardon me... miss... would you like your shirt back?"

RufusSafer: "Huh?" Looks down at her chest and suddenly urks.. turning red. She slaps Kenshin hard as she covers herself with the other arm, grabbing her shirt. "HOW DARE YOU!!!":

EeoRaptor: "erk... you were wounded"

RufusSafer: "That's no excuse of taking adventege of a poor helpless little girl."

EeoRaptor: "I wasnt... miss.. Im Gay.. I have no interest in women...":

RufusSafer: She hmphs at him anyway. "That boy is staring.. I don't like it.."

RufusSafer: Yahiko's eyes were on her.. buldging at the site of her free breasts from before

EeoRaptor: "Yahiko... " Kenshin says with a sigh... and gets up to usher him out of the room

RufusSafer: Yahiko is blushing... feeling something he doesn't feel too often

EeoRaptor: "Yahiko... please go start dinner... Im sure you can prepare Ramen... right?

RufusSafer: The boy nods quickly, getting off as best he can

EeoRaptor: Kenshin frowns "Are you alright then miss?"

RufusSafer: She has her shirt on and her arms folded. "Hmph... I do not like being called Miss..."

EeoRaptor: "Then what do you want me to call you"

RufusSafer: "Lord Dilandau will do fine."

EeoRaptor: "Alright... "

RufusSafer: "Good."

EeoRaptor: "Now... about your Brother... ?'

RufusSafer: she frowns hard

EeoRaptor: 'Is .. he... really dead?"

RufusSafer: "I.... I.... I.... don't.. know..."

EeoRaptor: Kenshin nods slowly "Do you want help finding him?"

RufusSafer: "No.... I don't need help"

EeoRaptor: Kenshin nods "Would you like any supplies... before you leave then... I assume.. that is what you are planning"

RufusSafer: "just my sword..."

EeoRaptor: Kenshin goes over to where Dilendau's sword and sheath are hung and takes it to him

RufusSafer: she grabs it and glares at him as she stands, slipping into her jacket.

EeoRaptor: Kenshin sighs and shakes his head "Good luck on your Journeys.... " He says... and goes to see how badly Yahiko has burned the Ramen

RufusSafer: It was on fire with the boy cringing when he got there

EeoRaptor: Kenshin sighs and dumps water on the noodles "I suppose we can go into town and eat... I dont want to spend another night here... "

RufusSafer: Yahiko nods. "And we need to find Karou!"

EeoRaptor: "Kaoru?"

RufusSafer: "She was kidnapped."

EeoRaptor: "Kid... napped?"

RufusSafer: He nods. "Yea, I was telling Sano about it."

EeoRaptor: "By who?'

RufusSafer: "I.. don't know..."

EeoRaptor: Kenshin frowns "Probably someone trying to get at me.."

RufusSafer: "Maybe... we hadn't seen you in so long."

EeoRaptor: "well... I have been meaning to start wandering again.. this time I have someone to look for... " Kenshin yells for Sano to pack up his things... as he starts cleaning and packing away the cooking gear

RufusSafer: Sano packed everything up as fast as posslbe and met him at the front of the cabinm

EeoRaptor: "Come Yahiko" Kenshin says... after leaving the cabin as neat and empty as they had found it weeks earlier

RufusSafer: Yahiko smiled as he got to follow them

EeoRaptor: Although he may not be too thrilled when he experiences some of thier activities together

RufusSafer: he wasn't even thinking about that for now since his mind was on the girl he got to see half naked

EeoRaptor: Too bad for him that girl was in no way interested... and miles away by now

RufusSafer: Dilendau is strolling through the town again, her sword strapped to her belt.

RufusSafer: heading the oppisite way the crew was

EeoRaptor: She... now... was searching as well

RufusSafer: Searching for a new army.... she thought Allen was dead, which made her innocence go away, far away...

RufusSafer: She walks, light reflecting off her tiara.

RufusSafer: Her gaze was on the ground though, mind far away

EeoRaptor: As Dil walks.... someone presses a pamphlet into her hands... some sort of "God loves you" message is printed on it

RufusSafer: She scowls and crumples it into a ball, tossing it back at the person who handed it to her without looking at then

EeoRaptor: The man that handed it to her frowns.. and picks it up... then pegs it at the back of her head in a strange... not himself moment

RufusSafer: "Keep that filth away from me..." she hisses

EeoRaptor: "Im sorry.. miss.. I forgot myself " He says.. wondering what made him... do that... as he picks it back up and drops it in a nearby trashcan... almost reverently... before returning to his post on the corner

RufusSafer: She spun at the voice and her mouth fell. "L-l-ord.. Folken!" She stammered

EeoRaptor: The man looks at her funny "Do.. i know you?"

RufusSafer: "Y-y... I thought.. you.. died!"

EeoRaptor: "I.. who are you?"

RufusSafer: "Dilendau! Don't you remember??"

EeoRaptor: "N... no... have we met?"

RufusSafer: "yes. We served together in the empire!"

EeoRaptor: "em.. pire? i... serve only god.."

RufusSafer: "Oh Man!! Some religous nuts have snagged you?? Great.. that must be because you have the blood of an ancient.." She reached over and shook him.

EeoRaptor: Folken blinks and pulls away from her... confused

RufusSafer: "But.. They said you died.. Hitome said she saw you die..."

EeoRaptor: "Im. .not dead.... I live by the grace of god...." Folken says... confused... brainwashed

RufusSafer: She growled at his line and grabbed hold of his arm, dragging him behind her.

EeoRaptor: Folken drops his pamphlets and they flutter to the ground as she drags him away... he doesnt struggle... just says something about how he's not supposed to leave that corner until his bretheren pick him up

RufusSafer: "Hmph,... and they said I was brainwashed.. at least it wasn't by something this pathetic.." she dragged him until they were in the woods

EeoRaptor: When they stop.. Folken dusts off his somber colored suit and looks at Dilendau

RufusSafer: She tapped her foot. "What do you remember?"

EeoRaptor: "Remember?"

RufusSafer: "Your first thing you can remember."

EeoRaptor: "Being baptized...."

RufusSafer: "Ack.. you've been baptized??!"

EeoRaptor: "All brothers are baptized"

RufusSafer: "Oh man, we have to help you.." She pushed him against the tree

EeoRaptor: Folken blinks "I.. dont have any money... "

RufusSafer: "Money?? I don't need money."

EeoRaptor: "You... arent going to rob me?"

RufusSafer: "No, why would I want to?"

EeoRaptor: "I... dont know"

RufusSafer: "Hmm.." she frowned, then thought of something. "What about... naked bodies..."

EeoRaptor: "naked... bodies?"

RufusSafer: "yes.. lust."

EeoRaptor: "I... I .. have taken a vow of Celibacy..."

RufusSafer: She grinned. "I see.. and this body has never been touched..."

EeoRaptor: "N... no ... that would be a sin..."

RufusSafer: "Yes... to counter what they did to you.." she took his good hand in hers and brought it to her chest.

EeoRaptor: "N.. No I dont want to burn in hell!!" Folken whimpers... trying to pull his hand away

RufusSafer: "hush..." She pulled the hand back, leaning up to gently kiss his chin.

EeoRaptor: Folken trembles "P.. please stop.. I..."

RufusSafer: She let his hand touch the curve of one breast, hidden under her padded clothing

EeoRaptor: Folken is trembling violently... and looks like he might pass out "Please... I... purification hurts..."

RufusSafer: "Then why do it? They are using you Folken-sama..."

EeoRaptor: "they... took care of me... cleansed me... "

RufusSafer: "Forced you to belive without thinking."

EeoRaptor: "No... I.."

RufusSafer: "You havn't been thinking.. not remembering who you are... You lost your arm to a dragon... you have a younger brother named Van.. your mother was an ancient!"

EeoRaptor: "I..." Folken quivers

RufusSafer: "Don't you REMEMBER?!!"

EeoRaptor: "V... van....'

RufusSafer: "YES! Your little brother! Who I HATE more then anything.." Growles and touches the scar on her face'

EeoRaptor: "I... please... just go away..' Folken whimpers

RufusSafer: "No... You're coming with me."

EeoRaptor: "but... the brothers.."

RufusSafer: "They are controlling you..."

EeoRaptor: "no.. they.. saved me.."

RufusSafer: "Shhh.... Don't you remember me yet?"

EeoRaptor: "Dilendau.... "

RufusSafer: "Good... goood....."

EeoRaptor: Folken whimpers... still trembling

RufusSafer: She took both hands in hers. "Remember.. remember yourself!"

EeoRaptor: "Dilendau. you.. changed"

RufusSafer: "changed?"

EeoRaptor: "you... never had .. breasts before...."

RufusSafer: "Oh... these? Fate affects wore off on me at last taking away the male body it had given me for a time."

EeoRaptor: Folken nods shakily....

RufusSafer: "you remember me then?"

EeoRaptor: "I... they'll hurt me... please let me go back... "

RufusSafer: "If they'll hurt you for not going back to them they are evil..." She grinned, taking one hand off of his to grip her swords. "I'll spray the place they live with their blood..."

EeoRaptor: "no... they are good people... "

RufusSafer: "Not if they'll hurt you."

EeoRaptor: Folken frowns

RufusSafer: She grinned. "Now, are you going to come with me or shall I burn them to the ground?"

EeoRaptor: "I'll .. come.. " Folken says softly

RufusSafer: "Good boy." She took his good hand and walked with him.

EeoRaptor: Folken walks with her.. somberly

RufusSafer: She didn't stop till the next town where they could have a nice inn room.

EeoRaptor: Folken looks at the room once they get in... and wonders if he will have to sleep on the floor.. theres only one bed...

RufusSafer: The bed was large though and there was a chilled bottle of white wine. Dil frowned. "I prefure red but this will do.."

EeoRaptor: "Drinking is a sin... " Folken says softly

RufusSafer: She chuckled. "Then I'll have to make you."

EeoRaptor: "N.. no.. I.. cant.."

RufusSafer: "yes yes yes." She went to the wine and poured two glasses.

EeoRaptor: "No.. no.. "Folken protests

RufusSafer: She pulled him to the bed and pressed teh glass into his hand

EeoRaptor: Folken frowns at the glass... and moves to set it down as if touching it burns him
RufusSafer: Dil laughed and forced him to hold the drink. "you don't have an option here."
EeoRaptor: "I... dont drink.. "
RufusSafer: "You do now."
EeoRaptor: Folken frowns
RufusSafer: "Come on.. try it."
EeoRaptor: "But... Its... I.. "
RufusSafer: "NOW!"
EeoRaptor: Folken flinches and takes the tiniest sip
RufusSafer: She grins at him and brings her own glass to her lips.
EeoRaptor: Folken doesnt like the taste... and he tries to get rid of the glass again
RufusSafer: She glares and swings to her feet from the bed and goes to him.
EeoRaptor: "Why are you doing this to me?"
RufusSafer: "To MAKE you remember..." She walked to him, then pushed him up against the wall.
EeoRaptor: Folken looks down at Dilendau... not sure if he wants to fully remember...
RufusSafer: "I know you like girls... I saw you with those kitties... how they loved you.. and how you loved them.."
EeoRaptor: "kitties?" Folken asks...
RufusSafer: "The girls... those two cats...they loved you so much that they died for you..."
EeoRaptor: "Stop... please.. I dont..."
RufusSafer: "Don't what?"
EeoRaptor: Folkens' eyes are sad... and .. brimming with tears
RufusSafer: She reached one hand up to his face, drawing it down to kiss the bottom of his lip
EeoRaptor: Folken pulls back a little... "Im.. not who you think i am...' he says softly...
RufusSafer: "Yes you are..."
EeoRaptor: Folken shakes his head sadly
RufusSafer: She took his good hand and placed it on her leg.
EeoRaptor: Folken shudders slightly... why wont this woman leave him alone..
RufusSafer: "Hush folken-sama.. the real you is down there soemwhere.. I know all about repressed memories..."
EeoRaptor: "he died..."
RufusSafer: "Shhh... no...."
EeoRaptor: Folken sighs softly... leaning against the wall heavily and sinking down against it slightly
RufusSafer: She slapped him across the face. "Damn it, REMEMBER ME!"
EeoRaptor: Folken starts crying... squeezing his eyes shut "It hurts to remember..."
RufusSafer: "Why does it?"
EeoRaptor: "They made it hurt... please understand..."
RufusSafer: "Then i will slap you till you remember yourself..."
EeoRaptor: "dont..!"
RufusSafer: She slapped him again. "REMEMBER!"
EeoRaptor: Folken whimpers and tries to break away from her
RufusSafer: "I'll let you go when you remember."
EeoRaptor: "what do you want me to say... '
RufusSafer: "Just.. remember.... before..."
EeoRaptor: "Naria... Eria.. why did you make me remember them.. it hurts... get away from me!"
RufusSafer: "Do you remember ME?":
EeoRaptor: "yes.. now stop... stop... I dont want to remember.. what I did... "
RufusSafer: "Tell me then.. what you remember..."
EeoRaptor: "stop... now...'
RufusSafer: "TELL ME!!!" She demands
EeoRaptor: "I dont want to hurt anyone else... leave me alone!!!"
RufusSafer: "You tell me now..."
EeoRaptor: Folken grabs her roughly "I said stop... you never follow orders.... "
RufusSafer: She raised an eybrow.. her wrists in his grip.. one nearly getting cut by his claws. "You...:
EeoRaptor: "Stop... "
RufusSafer: "Why should I folken? Tell me!"
EeoRaptor: Folken closes his eyes "You wont leave me alone.... why did you have to show up and make me remember all of those things I managed to forget..."
RufusSafer: "Because... I couldn't let you hide from yourself."
EeoRaptor: Folken pushes her away and flops dejectedly on the bed "You just like destroying things.
RufusSafer: She falls the the ground with an oof. "Not my fault Folken-sama..."
EeoRaptor: "Yes.. I know..."
RufusSafer: "Do you know who made me that way?”
EeoRaptor: "...."
RufusSafer: "Do you?"
EeoRaptor: "Enough... please"
RufusSafer: "Too much too soon?"
EeoRaptor: "Yes.. I need a shower.. do you mind?"
RufusSafer: "Go ahead... I'm just not letting you leave the inn."
EeoRaptor: Folken nods... plucking his jacket off and hanging it over the back of a chair... then removing his button down shirt and tie "Can you order something to eat... Im starving"
RufusSafer: "Alright.. it will be here when you come out." she winks at him and grins. Damn, asside from the breasts she looks and dresses just the same as she did when he last saw Dil
EeoRaptor: Folken nods and goes into the bathroom to undress the rest of the way... and get a hot shower.. letting his wings out to soak as well
RufusSafer: all those memories.. floodign back. Still some gaps of course.. but some of the bad ones where in there too
EeoRaptor: He didnt like it... he was at peace... despite the pain.... he scrubs himself.. wincing at a few burns that havent quite healed and start bleeding again as he runs the washcloth over them
RufusSafer: but of course.. the truth was always not peacefull
EeoRaptor: Folken finishes his shower... shaking the water off of himself and drying... leaving his wings out to airdry as he walks back into the bedroom... his towel tied securely around his waist
RufusSafer: she was still dressed at least, waiting by the door with her sword in one gloved hand.. the other hand slowly stroking that mark on her cheek
EeoRaptor: "what are you doing?" Folken asks... sitting down on the bed to examine one of his wings.... frowning at some singed feathers
RufusSafer: "Waiting for our food to arrive..." She kept that repeditive hand motion
EeoRaptor: "with your sword?"
RufusSafer: "Yep, why not?"
EeoRaptor: "come here...." Folken says.. patting the bed
RufusSafer: She turned to look atr him, a grinning coming to her face. She stood up and traced to the bed, still carrying her sword.
EeoRaptor: "Put the sword down... and sit..."
RufusSafer: She blinked for a momment then sheathed her sword, placing it to one side as she sat.
EeoRaptor: Folken slides over to her.... looking her over carefully "Yes.... whats it like.... now that youre a girl?" He asks
RufusSafer: "I always was a girl.. fate just gave me a male body for a time... and what's it like? I'm a virgin again, and I feel, so much.. freeer..."
EeoRaptor: "Ahh... what happend... to your other half?"
RufusSafer: "Other half?" She turned her red-violet eyes on him
EeoRaptor: "Gone I suppose..." Folken says.... reaching out his hand to touch her scar
RufusSafer: She frowned a little. "why do you touch there?"
EeoRaptor: "My brother did this...."
RufusSafer: "Yes... he did.. he... ruined my beautiful face..."
EeoRaptor: "Its still beautiful"
RufusSafer: a slight smile played on her lips. "That is good to know... but he also took a lot more from me.."
EeoRaptor: "Like what?"
RufusSafer: "All my beautiful boys.." She sniffled. "He made me alone again..."
EeoRaptor: "You burned down his kingdom..."
RufusSafer: "YOUR kingdom.... I needed to get Escaflowne..."
EeoRaptor: "No... I failed in slaying the dragon... it was his kingdom'
RufusSafer: She sighed. "Folken... if Hitome had never shown up to stop the empire.. what would have become of me and those like me?"
EeoRaptor: "I dont know.. probably the same thing that would have happend to anyone who outlived thier use.. "
RufusSafer: She looked away. "I thought so..."
EeoRaptor: "We all had terms of usefulness.... to Dornkirk... not just you....."
RufusSafer: "What about you?"
EeoRaptor: "yes... he only had me ... because I was an Ancient... and... my time of usefulness came to an end when he used my ... "Death" to start the Atlantis machine."
RufusSafer: "He... what?"
EeoRaptor: "Dont worry about it.. I was just a tool ... '
EeoRaptor: "as was the rest of the empire..."
RufusSafer: She sighes, then throws her arms around him.
EeoRaptor: Folken puts his arms around her as well.... pulling her close.. its odd to him.... he remembers the few times Dilendau had managed to lure him to bed.... and while its the same person... it doesnt feel the same
RufusSafer: Same person but female... but female was the truth.... the body had only changed in a few key places
EeoRaptor: Folken kisses Dil's cheek softly
RufusSafer: She sniffles a little.. then there came a knock on the door
EeoRaptor: "Must be our dinner... answer it please... " Folken says... pulling the cover off the bed to cover his wings
RufusSafer: She nodded and rose from the bed, crossing to the door. "Come in."
EeoRaptor: "Roomservice.... " Calls the voice outside the door.. and a cart with what Dil had ordered is rolled in... a bottle of red wine is included among everything else
RufusSafer: She grins and pays the guy a nice tip. "Thank you..." Then shuts the door in his face
EeoRaptor: Folken slides off the bed and inspects the food
RufusSafer: "Look good eh?"
EeoRaptor: Folken nods.. opening the bottle of wine.... and sniffing at it
RufusSafer: She went back to the bed, pulling the cart with her.
EeoRaptor: Folken settles down with the bottle.. drinking directly from it... not bothering to pour it into a glass
RufusSafer: She raised an eyebrow at him, "Hey.. save soem for me."
EeoRaptor: He hands her the bottle "Sorry.. I prefer red to that white crap you gave me...."
RufusSafer: "I hate white.. I just drank it cause it was there."
EeoRaptor: "I understand..." Folken says.. helping himself to the food on the cart
RufusSafer: "Do you like what i ordered?"
EeoRaptor: Folken nods... "dont want to eat too much though.... I know what youre expecting"
RufusSafer: She grinned. "Do you now?"
EeoRaptor: "Yes... you always used to wine and dine me.... before...
RufusSafer: "That was then... I don't have the same parts... I'm a virgin again with this body Folken-sama..."
EeoRaptor: "Mmmph... you want to save yourself for that special someone then.... ?" He teases
RufusSafer: "For someone who actually wants me.. yes.." She grinned.
EeoRaptor: "Who would want you....?" Folken asks mockingly
RufusSafer: "Hmph..." she turns her face from him, folding her arms over her breasts.. though.. mockingly as well
EeoRaptor: Folken leans in and kisses the back of her neck
RufusSafer: Her body tingles and she turns her head to look at him. "Now you are actually getting.. frisky?"
EeoRaptor: "Ive been celibate for... some time... you know...."
RufusSafer: "Mmm... I've been waiting for some time..."
EeoRaptor: Folken was a little surprised... Dil had just been saying she didnt want to.. but was now all over him
RufusSafer: But softly, grinning teasingly at him
EeoRaptor: Folken blinks at Dil
RufusSafer: "Something wrong Folken-sama?"
EeoRaptor: "No... you just surprise me"
RufusSafer: "In what way?"
EeoRaptor: "Never thought you would be this appealing
RufusSafer: "You didn't?"
EeoRaptor: "no.. Its... been a long time"
RufusSafer: She grinned at him and moved over into his lap.
EeoRaptor: Folken shifts slightly and puts his arms around her... she's lithe and warm... but softer than the Dilendau he remembers
RufusSafer: Her eyes shine up at him. "Mmm, you are warm..."
EeoRaptor: "so are you... " Folken says.... his hands moving slowly along her back and sides "But... before we do anything.. I want to be sure you arent going to run off on me.."
RufusSafer: "No... I need.. company.. so very much."
EeoRaptor: "You must promise not to leave me alone with my memories..."
RufusSafer: "I swear.."
EeoRaptor: "Good.." Folken purrs kissing her deeply
RufusSafer: She purrs back at him, closing her violete-red eyes
EeoRaptor: Folken brings his good hand up to run through her hair and press her into the kiss
RufusSafer: Her lips, so soft, so moist... tender. The warmth of her mouth, electrifying.
EeoRaptor: Folken becomes almost instantly aroused... evident through the thin hotel towel thats still tied around his waist
RufusSafer: She was still dressed in her uniform though... tight against her skin
EeoRaptor: Folken's clawed hand moves to remedy that... seeking the buttons and zippers that will let him at the smooth flesh beneath
RufusSafer: they were not hard to find, just under the folds of some of the materal.. and soon her jacket was off, leaving only her thin tunic.
EeoRaptor: Folken pulls the tunic off slowly to bare her chest.... his good hand instantly moving to massage one of the perfect breasts slowly, his claw wandering down to rest on her hip
RufusSafer: Her eyes shine. "Oh,... my..." Her body shivered. "I've never been.. touched.. like this..."
EeoRaptor: "Well... since youve never had those parts Im touching" Folken teases
RufusSafer: "Yessss.... godssss... it feels... good already."
EeoRaptor: "Do you want more" Folken asks... his fingers centering on her nipple and rubbing it slowly
RufusSafer: "Yesss... please... more!" She moved her fingers down to Folken's towl.
EeoRaptor: Folken hisses softly... he's quite hard... to the point of it almost being painful. He continues to rub her nipples.... making both hard little nubs in his actions. His clawed hand works at removing her pants
RufusSafer: She shivered in his arms, her eyes rolling back some as her nipples stiffened under his touch. "Oh... Folken.. i.. I didn't know it.. felt..."
EeoRaptor: "So good? Better than when you were a man?" Folken asks curiously... getting her pants off and rolling them over so he's on top
RufusSafer: She nodded her head. "More.. sensitive!"
RufusSafer: Her eyes open again as she finds herself naked and pinned under the beautiful former prince
EeoRaptor: Folken still has his wings out... they are dry and fluffy now, although they look slightly singed. He lowers his head to nuzzle and then suckle at each of her hardened nipples... his good hand reaching down to rub her gently
RufusSafer: "You're going to?" She asks, looking up into his eyes, her body tingling with excitment.
EeoRaptor: "If thats what you want... I dont want to make you do anything.. "
RufusSafer: "I want.. or I wouldn';t have let you get me in this position.."{
EeoRaptor: "Oh. you think you could have fought me hmmm?
RufusSafer: "Yes..." She grinned up at him.
EeoRaptor: Folken chuckles "Really?" He kisses her passionately "You could resist seduction?"
RufusSafer: "Oh, have you become some sort of demon folken-sama?"
EeoRaptor: "No... but perhaps in my passions you could call me one..."
RufusSafer: She grinned. "And just a few hours ago you were some celibate god boy..."
EeoRaptor: "I was brainwashed.. I honestly didnt remember"
RufusSafer: "Now you do.. good."
EeoRaptor: "Mmph... not exactly good... " Folken says.... slipping a finger into her to rub her clit slowly... almost as if its a punishment
RufusSafer: she shivered yet again. Her body began to get wet.
EeoRaptor: "Feels good mmmm?" Folken purrs... nuzzling and kissing her neck as he probes another finger in.. and presses it into her deeply
RufusSafer: Dilendau squeezed her eyes shut, rasing her hips some so thast the finger would slide in as far as possible.
EeoRaptor: Folken chuckles softly at her impatience... and withdaws his fingers.... he holds her hips down with his hands as he spreads her legs and ever so slowly... centimeter by centimeter... starts to inch his way in.
RufusSafer: She made a small whimpering sound, suddenly wrapping her arms around his back.
EeoRaptor: Folken stops for a moment.... afraid she's not ready... but then he tells himself she could definately stop him if she didnt want this
RufusSafer: Her breathing became quickened, along with the beating of her heart. Sweat formed in beads along her skin.
EeoRaptor: Folken presses in further.... feeling her obstruction break as he pushes against it.... he smiled and kissed her face gently as he pushed in the rest of the way.. hoping it hadnt hurt her too much
RufusSafer: She does make a slight pained sound, her breath clutching in her throat as if she hadn't expect it. Her arms tighten around him.
EeoRaptor: "Sshh..." He whispers... kissing her passionately as he begins to thrust.. slowly.. his hands moving up to knead her breasts as he does
RufusSafer: Her panting came back after that, her fingers slowly moving up and down his spine
EeoRaptor: Folken purrs.. keeping his pace slow and pleasurable... wanting to please her as much as possible for her first time
RufusSafer: First time of being like this... but as she opened her eyes only passion burned there. "My godss..." She uttered as she lifted her hips yep higher to try and get more of him inside
EeoRaptor: Folken takes that as a cue to pick up his speed.... pumping his hips faster into her, his cock probing deeper each time
RufusSafer: "AHH!!" She cried out, one hand clutching the curves of his ass.
EeoRaptor: Folken kisses all over her face... in frenzied passion .... his wings spreading out fully as he picks up his speed... he's nearing his climax.. and his claw reflexively digs into her a little... drawing blood
RufusSafer: She cries out his name, her own body reaching the same and clutching down on him
EeoRaptor: "Dilendau!" Folken moans... burrying himself one last time and pumping his hot seed into her body.... then just about collapsing into a limp mass of limbs and feathers .. .
RufusSafer: she whimpers out of pleasure, her voice no longer able to rise
EeoRaptor: Folken nuzzles her weakly... his now tender cock slipping out of her as he rolls onto his side to cuddle her... feeling the best he's felt after sex for some time
RufusSafer: Her thin body easlily fits itself against his chest. "Gods.. Folken-sama... I've never felt.. that good.. before..."
EeoRaptor: "Yes.." Folken purrs.. nuzzling at her hair "I... think Im in love... if you'll forgive me...."
RufusSafer: "In.. love?"
EeoRaptor: "yes... perhaps it has always been that way... Ive always held a strange... interest in you"
RufusSafer: "In me?" Her eyes blinked slowly, mostly just purple and blue now.
EeoRaptor: "Yes... does it bother you?"
RufusSafer: "No... I just... didn't think you would feel that for me..."
EeoRaptor: "Im sorry... It just awsnt possible before... not with the empire"
RufusSafer: "I know... and everything we had to do."
EeoRaptor: "I couldnt admit to myself ... or to you... I knew we were going to die...
RufusSafer: "You did?"
EeoRaptor: "In... some way.. yes"
RufusSafer: "You knew you had to die for the plan unless you got your brother and the dragon with you.. and knew tht me and those like me would be.. sacrifcied... afterwards..."
EeoRaptor: "Yes..."
RufusSafer: She frowned and looked down.
EeoRaptor: "The empire stole our lives... Im taking back what little I can... and you... are part of that... "
RufusSafer: She smiled at him and snuggled against him. "Thank you..."

EeoRaptor: "I want you to stay with me... forever..."
RufusSafer: "I... i'd like that.. I couldn';t cope with being alone again."
EeoRaptor: "Sleep now... we have a whole lifetime ahead of us" Folken murrs.. stroking her hair gently
RufusSafer: She closed her eyes and went to sleeop

RufusSafer: Sano yawned, stretching in his bed. "Man... why do we have to keep searching? It's been months!"
EeoRaptor: "We cant give up Sano..."
RufusSafer: "but I'tired of having that kid hang around.."
EeoRaptor: "Ive gotten used to it..."
RufusSafer: "But we havn't..." Sano frowned, giving him that look.
EeoRaptor: "Shh... we'll get a chance sooner or later"
RufusSafer: "I'm just worried... what if somethign happens? What if we die or something?"
EeoRaptor: Kenshin sighs softly "We'll get a separate room next time we check into an inn..."
RufusSafer: Sano smiled. "Thank you. I don't know how I'm supposed to go off into battle without feeling you against me again.. cause if we find who did this, it might be our last fight..."
EeoRaptor: "true.. but... even if you did die .. you would still know I loved you"
RufusSafer: Sano smiled. "I know... I just don't want to die without that feel again, or I fear I'd become a wandering ghost ..."
EeoRaptor: "I understand... we'll stay at an Inn tonight...... good?'
RufusSafer: Sano nodded. "Agreed."
EeoRaptor: Kenshin kisses him softly
RufusSafer: Sano kissed back much to the ewww sound from Yahiko.
EeoRaptor: "You think you'd be used to it by now Yahiko..."
RufusSafer: "It's still grose!" He complains.
EeoRaptor: "Want to try one for yourself... I assure you its wonderful" Kenshin says with a smirk
RufusSafer: Yahiko shrieks and runs out.
RufusSafer: Sano laughs. "You just scared him."
EeoRaptor: "good..."
RufusSafer: Sano hugged him tight. "Coem on, let's go."
RufusSafer: Sano walked along the road.
EeoRaptor: "Yahiko lets go... no hiding now.. we're finding an inn" Kenshin calls to the boy as he follows after Sano
RufusSafer: Yahiko came out, following them. "Hmph..."
EeoRaptor: They walk until they find a somewhat quaint inn...
RufusSafer: Sano went in to see if they had rooms.
EeoRaptor: Allen is behind the counter... he looks a thousand times better than he did the last they saw him...
RufusSafer: Sano remembered him and raised his eyebrows. "Wow, hey, you are alive!"
EeoRaptor: Allen looks up from his bookwork "Yes... why does it surprise you? oh... I remember you... " Allen says... standing and moving over to the counter
RufusSafer: "Yah... we all thought you were dead."
EeoRaptor: "No.. I wasnt... I... got kidnapped and discareded.... Van found me"
RufusSafer: "He did? That's good."
EeoRaptor: "yes... we've been together all this time... but... my sister disappeared"
RufusSafer: "I know... she left after we healed her.. I still remember that."
EeoRaptor: "Where did she go?"
RufusSafer: "She just.. left.. that's all I know."
EeoRaptor: "At least I know she's.. probably alright..." Allen says with a sigh "I couldnt stay in that big empty house without her being there.... so I rent it out.. and I bought this inn...
RufusSafer: "Great. can we get two rooms then?"
EeoRaptor: "Sure... on the house"
RufusSafer: Sano hugged him. "Thank you so much,.”
EeoRaptor: "Youre welcome... I owe you for taking care of me..."
RufusSafer: "You're welcome for that."
EeoRaptor: "I'll have Van send a meal to your rooms as well... how many are in your party?"
RufusSafer: "Three of us. Ken and I watned to have a room to ourselves tonight."
EeoRaptor: "alright.. honeymoon suite for the 2.. and a regular room for the extra... " Allen says... handing over the keys
RufusSafer: He gladly took the keys and went to the others. "We sleep good tonight!"
EeoRaptor: Kenshin looks at Sano and the key with the heart on it "How can we afford that?"
RufusSafer: "Allen's alive and he gave us the room."
EeoRaptor: "allen.. ? Ahh... "
RufusSafer: Sano grinned and ran up to the room./
EeoRaptor: Kenshin follows.. handing Yahiko the other key

RufusSafer: At the edge of town a figure walked slowly, holding a sword.
EeoRaptor: Tasuki watches.... having wandered into that part of town on a lead.... and wonders if that is the one that Kidnapped his lover
RufusSafer: a woman with a sword, probably had money too...
EeoRaptor: Tasuki pulls out his fan and runs his fingers along the edge... well even if it isnt the kidnapper... he needs money
RufusSafer: She didn't even seem to notice he was there
EeoRaptor: Tasuki moves up behind her and pokes her in the back with his fan
RufusSafer: She spun, sword in hand.
EeoRaptor: Tasuki frowns at the obvious bulge in her abdomen.. "Money or your life... and I dont wanna take two..."
RufusSafer: "What? Are you crazy?" Her eyes suddenly burn red as she growls, bringing her sword right around at his stomach.
EeoRaptor: Tasuki eeps and jumps backwards... sending a jet of flames at her with his fan
RufusSafer: She snarled and turned her sword to the flat part, a spell ward on it reflecting the flames back at him. "How dare you attack me!!"
RufusSafer: the fight winds up setting fire to a near by building.. causign people to report the news all throught the town.. even to the inn
EeoRaptor: Allen frowns at the reports "Fire in town Van... some crazy people fighting..."
RufusSafer: Van sighed. "Want me to go check this out?"
EeoRaptor: "Wake our guests in case we have to evacuate...."
RufusSafer: Van nodded. "I suppose yopu're going to check this out then?"
EeoRaptor: Allen frowns "Why do I need to check it out.. I have to make sure my livelihood doesnt burn down"
RufusSafer: "Cause I want to know what the hell is goin on down there love."
EeoRaptor: Allen rolls his eyes "Youre too adventurous..."
RufusSafer: "I'll wake them if you go." Van leaned over to kiss him.
EeoRaptor: "Alright... if you want to come along afterwards to see.... "
RufusSafer: Van nodded and rushed off to do his duties.
EeoRaptor: Allen slips into his jacket and heads down to find out whats going on
RufusSafer: Dilendau was holding Tasuki off, her eyes fixed on him and that damn fan.
EeoRaptor: "Look you looney bitch... " Tasuki growls "I was told the kidnapper I was lookin for was around here... and you certainly look crazy enough to have taken my Zel!"
RufusSafer: "Kidnapper? WHERE!!!??" she turns her sword up under his chin. "Tell me where the kidnapper is before i slit your body in two,..."
EeoRaptor: "Hey... damnit! I got a tip that the kidnapper I was lookin for was around here... "
RufusSafer: "WHERE IS THE KIDNAPPER!!!" Her eyes blazed over.
EeoRaptor: "Somewhere around here you bitch! I dont know for sure..."
RufusSafer: "Bitch?? HOW DARE YOU!!!" She hacked away at him.. though somehow only rippng his clothing.
EeoRaptor: Tasuki leaps away nimbly... almost knocking over the blonde man that is gawking at the whole scene

"Celena?"
RufusSafer: The woman was caught off guard. turning her eyes went wide. "Allen?! YOU'RE ALIVE!!!" She rushed him, dropping her sword as she hugged him.
EeoRaptor: "Ive been so worried about you...." Allen says... squeezing her tightly..
EeoRaptor: Tasuki takes his chance to grab the psycho-bitch's sword
RufusSafer: She started to cry. "Oh allen.. I thought.. I thought.. I thought you died..."
EeoRaptor: "No... I was taken by someone... and then gotten rid of.. Van found me..
RufusSafer: She sniffled and hugged again. "I... couldn't stand the idea of being alone..."
EeoRaptor: "Its okay... "
RufusSafer: She leaned her head against him, already forgetting the fight.
EeoRaptor: "are you okay... you seem to have put on some.. weight" Allen says.. noticing finally
RufusSafer: "Eh?" She blinked for a second. "Oh..." she turned from him.. not sure how to break the news to him.
EeoRaptor: "Are you okay?"
RufusSafer: "I.. I think I should lay down..."
EeoRaptor: "Come.. I have a hotel..." allen says.. picking her up..
RufusSafer: She smiled, leaning against her brother as she forgets about her sword.
EeoRaptor: Allen takes her back to the hotel and sets her up in he and Van's private quarters at the back of the inn
RufusSafer: "Thank you Allen-sama.. I'm tired, I need some sleep." She took off her boots.
EeoRaptor: Allen tucks her in "I'll be out in the front office if you need anything.. "
RufusSafer: She nodded and fell asleep.
EeoRaptor: Allen turns down the lights and goes into the front office... wondering where van got to
RufusSafer: Van was out there entertaining Yahiko with stories
EeoRaptor: Allen smiles and settles down behind the desk "van.. you wouldnt believe who I found"
RufusSafer: Van turned to look at him. "who?"
EeoRaptor: "celena... although.. it seems her persnalities have shifted again"
RufusSafer: "Ah.. should have known.. a town burning... that's her alright..."
EeoRaptor: Allen sighs and goes to sit with Van and Yahiko... a bit worried about his sister
RufusSafer: Van sighed and hugged Allen, relising he mgiht have hurt his lover's feelings
EeoRaptor: Allen nuzzles his cheek "she was fighting with some man.... I didnt see where he went when she noticed me"
RufusSafer: "I see.. is the fire under control?"
EeoRaptor: "yes.. now that they arent lighting any more"
RufusSafer: "Good to know. Um, what are we gonna do about her?"
EeoRaptor: "Well... she's sleeping now.. but.. I suppose you should be on guard'
RufusSafer: "Ya... bet she still hates me too..."
EeoRaptor: "Dont worry.. she wont hurt you as long as Im around"
RufusSafer: "she'd better not."
EeoRaptor: "Dont worry"
RufusSafer: Dilendau curled in her sleep, whimpering softly.
EeoRaptor: She was alone again... but not really...
RufusSafer: She missed her 'husband'
EeoRaptor: He'd dissappeared... without a trace..
RufusSafer: kidnapped as it were
EeoRaptor: He had been talking about marrying her before that... as farfetched as that seemed
RufusSafer: but after she had become pregnant with his child.. it seemed like a good thing
EeoRaptor: That had been somewhat of an unpleasant surprise for her... she hadnt thought about it until she started getting sick every morning
RufusSafer: she had been raised a fighter.. not a mothering type...
EeoRaptor: But he assured her everything would be alright.... he was always there for her.. rubbing her back while she was sick... he loved her
RufusSafer: and she loved him back
EeoRaptor: She hadnt ever thought that possible either... but he brought out things in her she never knew she had
RufusSafer: emotions long burried... unused
EeoRaptor: He'd been the cure she needed... to finally make her whole again
RufusSafer: The love she had wanted for a long time.. it had crushed her when he had vanished.. and she vowed to kill whoever took him from her
EeoRaptor: She knew he wouldnt just leave her.... he had to have been taken...
RufusSafer: She would kill herself and him if he had left her... she couldn't live if that had been the case.. so it had to be something else
EeoRaptor: And if it wasnt... when she found him..
RufusSafer: they would both die.... she would see to that... even after finding her brother again... nothing would matter if her heart could be decived
EeoRaptor: But she was sure that wasnt the case.. someone had taken him... for reasons unknown
RufusSafer: and she would kill them... kill them horribly.. for it
EeoRaptor: She just had to find them...
RufusSafer: she needed him... she whimpered, feeling the child moving inside of her
EeoRaptor: She only had a few more months... then... how would she deal with it herself?
RufusSafer: she didn't know... and she was worried too... would there be complications?
EeoRaptor: She had to find him... she didnt know... he was half draconian... would that make it harder for her?
RufusSafer: she woke up, troubled by these thoughts and VERY hungry.
EeoRaptor: Where was Allen... ?
RufusSafer: "Allleeennn!!!:
EeoRaptor: Allen rushes into the room... looking worried "Celena?"
RufusSafer: "I'm hungry... get me something to eat..."
EeoRaptor: "What would you like?"
RufusSafer: "Everything you have..."
EeoRaptor: "Everything? Ah.. alright"
RufusSafer: She nodded, getting up slowly and cracking her neck.
EeoRaptor: Allen heads off to make her food
RufusSafer: that was odd... her not getting food for herself and wanting.. everything?
EeoRaptor: She was probably just hungry and tired from traveling... he'd give her what she wanted
RufusSafer: she got to the table at the saem time Sano and Kesnhin were heading in for breakfast.
EeoRaptor: Kenshin blinks at her
RufusSafer: She started eating.. so fast that both Miaka and Lina would gape if they were sitting there at the table
EeoRaptor: Allen watches her... surprised... and heads back into the kitchen to make more
RufusSafer: After pretty much there is nothing left to eat she leans back in the chair and sighs.
EeoRaptor: "Im amazed ... you never used to eat that much..."
Allen says...
RufusSafer: "I need it now."
EeoRaptor: "I can see why youre putting on weight..."
RufusSafer: She sighed. "I need it... I'm... " says quietly, "Pregnant..."
EeoRaptor: "P.. pregnant?" Allen squeaks... fainting like the pansy he is
RufusSafer: She sighed, looking down at him. "Oh Allen..."
EeoRaptor: It takes a bit for him to come round
RufusSafer: "Allen... wake up....'
EeoRaptor: "You.. who?" Allen says... sitting up weakly
RufusSafer: She looked away. "Someone stole him from me Allen-sama.. I'm looking for him now."
EeoRaptor: "Stole him from you? Why would they do such a thing?"
RufusSafer: "I do not know... he was kidnapped..."
RufusSafer: that line peeks the interest of Sano.
EeoRaptor: Kenshin also is interested
EeoRaptor: "You say kidnapped?"
RufusSafer: She turned her head to him and nodded. "Yes... kidnapped... I'm sure of it."
EeoRaptor: "We're searching for someone that was kidnapped as well...."
RufusSafer: "As was that rude man that attacked me on the edge of town..."
EeoRaptor: "Do you know anything?"
RufusSafer: She shook her head. "No... and it's becoming less safe to travel.. but I have to find him..."
EeoRaptor: "Kaoru's been missing for... nearly a year now.." Kenshin says slowly.. "How long has yours been gone?"
RufusSafer: she closed her eyes. "Two months..." Tears formed at teh corners of her eyes.
EeoRaptor: Allen hugs her "Shh... I'll help you find him.. "
RufusSafer: She sobbs into his shoulder.
EeoRaptor: Allen pats her back "Kenshin and Sano... since we're all in the same boat... I want you to help as well"
RufusSafer: She holds onto him, but the baby was shifting again.
EeoRaptor: Allen feels it and looks down... he never thought of his sister being pregnant
RufusSafer: she was too much younger then him...
EeoRaptor: He had to protect her... and help her... it was his duty as a brother
RufusSafer: She pulled one hand down to feel her belly. "I need him here with me..."
EeoRaptor: "we'll find him.. dont worry.. " Allen says... squeezing her tightly
RufusSafer: "I need him to make sure I'm alrigth..."
EeoRaptor: Allen nods "we'll start looking right away...... let me tell Van to help lock up"
RufusSafer: "Van..." She frowned.
EeoRaptor: "Please.. put aside your anger for him... at least until we find everyone... we need to work together"
RufusSafer: "It's not that.. I was just thinking he might be able to... help..."
EeoRaptor: "Help.. how?"
RufusSafer: She sighed and took a deap breathe. "Because with Folken missing he's the only ancient left who can help with this..." she wasn't sure how her brother would take that news
EeoRaptor: "Folken? Van's brother?"
RufusSafer: she nodded, not sure if he got her meaning.
EeoRaptor: Allen frowns and calls for Van
RufusSafer: Van walked in, blinking at them both.
EeoRaptor: "Van... we need your help"
RufusSafer: "What for?"
EeoRaptor: "Your brother... Folken... "
RufusSafer: "What about him?"
EeoRaptor: "He's among the missing"
RufusSafer: "What? but he's dead..." Van blinked in confusen
RufusSafer: Dilendau sighed heavily and rocked... maybe by now allen knew what she meant and had time to.. process thjat info
EeoRaptor: "Celena says he's not.. and it appears... that.. well..." Allen points out the bulge in her stomach... "youre going to be an uncle?"
RufusSafer: Van was the one to pass out this time
RufusSafer: She sighed. "I guess that makes us all family then..."
EeoRaptor: Allen sighs at Van and pokes him gently "Why are you so upset?" He asks her
RufusSafer: "Because I miss him so much..."
EeoRaptor: "I understand..... we'll find him as quick as we can.”
RufusSafer: "and I need him... because of my.. condition..."
EeoRaptor: Allen nods and continues to prod Van
RufusSafer: Van slowly wakes up. "Waaa?"
EeoRaptor: "Van... you have to help us find your brother"
RufusSafer: "Ugh... too much... info..."
EeoRaptor: "Please... snap out of it... its important"
RufusSafer: "What? what?"
EeoRaptor: "She says you can help find Folken... "
RufusSafer: "No.. I said I needeed his help in another way.." she corrected her brother.
EeoRaptor: "Oh... well then ask him.."
RufusSafer: Van stumbles out in a daze
EeoRaptor: Allen blinks
RufusSafer: Van couldn't belive what he had been told
EeoRaptor: "Well I guess he wont be much help.."
RufusSafer: Dilendau sighed heavily. "I might die without help..."
EeoRaptor: "Die..?
RufusSafer: She nodded. "I have a child of an ancient inside of me after all..."
EeoRaptor: Allen frowns "Does it hurt... is it bothering you? VAN!! Get back in here!"
RufusSafer: "No no... It's just.. it's very powerful... I have to eat so much for it.. and I'm.. tiny.. and then their are the wings to worry about... I don't know what will happen to me when I have to.. you know...."
EeoRaptor: Allen frowns "I... understand... if Van cant.. or wont help we must find Folken..."
RufusSafer: "We have to find Folken! He's way more important.."
EeoRaptor: "I'll pack ... and we'll leave right away..."
RufusSafer: "No.. I need to rest...." she sighed. "It hurts to keep moving.. and I don';t know the effect it is having on the child."
EeoRaptor: Allen frowns "What are we going to do then?"
RufusSafer: "You'll have to find him"
EeoRaptor: "Who'll stay here to take care of you?"
RufusSafer: "I... I don't know..."
EeoRaptor: "I'll make Van stay... he's might be able to help..."
RufusSafer: "No... I don't want to be alone with him."
EeoRaptor: "I dont know what else to do for you..."
RufusSafer: She hugged him. "Just find him."
EeoRaptor: "Alright... I'll make sure food is delivered for you daily while Im gone..."
RufusSafer: "Good. I eat so much these days..."
EeoRaptor: Allen sighs and hugs her "Im sorry... I cant do more"
RufusSafer: "Just bring him back to me allen."
EeoRaptor: 'I will... no matter what... I will "
RufusSafer: "Good." She kissed him.
EeoRaptor: Allen blinks and goes to find Van to slap him out of his stupor if need be
RufusSafer: Van was up on the roof, staring at the sky.
EeoRaptor: "Van?"
RufusSafer: Van turned his eyes slightly to look at allen.
EeoRaptor: Allen slowly picks his way over to him
RufusSafer: "My brother.. alive..."
EeoRaptor: "I know... it must be shocking to you... just like... my sister.... being pregnant"
RufusSafer: "Shocking? She's carring MY BROTHER'S child..."
EeoRaptor: "Van... please... does that upset you so much?" Allen asks... slipping an arm around Van
RufusSafer: "she hates me... you know that..." Van sighed, resting against him.
EeoRaptor: "But she needs your help... as does your brother..."
RufusSafer: "What am I to do?"
EeoRaptor: "Come with us and help find him"
RufusSafer: Van nods. "I would like to see him again.."
EeoRaptor: "Then help me lock up and make arrangements"
RufusSafer: "I will then." he stood up.
EeoRaptor: Allen stands as well... and picks his way back to the skylight
RufusSafer: Van leaped to the ground from where he was
EeoRaptor: Allen goes down to thier quarters and starts to pack a few things that they will need... instructing Van to lock up all the rooms
RufusSafer: Van does as he's told.
EeoRaptor: Allen calls the grocery and orders food... easily prepared and pre-made stuff... so his sister wont have to do much while they are gone
RufusSafer: They are shocked by home much seeign as he said shut down a while
EeoRaptor: Allen makes sure his sister is comfortable... explaining how the security system works and the like
RufusSafer: She nodded, then relized. "AHH! that bastard stole my sword!!"
EeoRaptor: "I'll leave mine for you?" Allen asks
RufusSafer: "Noo... I need mine! please.. find that creep!"
EeoRaptor: "A.. alright... before we start our quest... we'll find your sword" Allen says.. hugging her then going to drag Van along with him
RufusSafer: She smiled happily at him. Van sighed but clung to Allen
EeoRaptor: "Come Van.. shouldnt be too hard"
RufusSafer: He sighed. "Alright.. Alright..."
RufusSafer: but in a bar.. Sanosuke alone had already found him
EeoRaptor: Sano didnt know he was the one who had set half the city on fire...
RufusSafer: He was sitting next to him in the bar
EeoRaptor: Tasuki is talking to the barkeep... about his kidnapped partner
RufusSafer: Sano turned to him. "Kidnapped..."
EeoRaptor: "Was I talkin to you? Yes I said kidnapped"
RufusSafer: "Yours was kidnapped?"
EeoRaptor: "Yes... a coupla months ago..."
RufusSafer: "Our friend was kidnapped..."
EeoRaptor: "really?"
EeoRaptor: Tasuki has a rather out of place sword strapped to his back
RufusSafer: "Yes."
EeoRaptor: "Damn.. you got any leads?"
RufusSafer: "Not yet.." He sighs.
EeoRaptor: "I got one but it was phony... they said tha kidnapper was in this town..."
RufusSafer: "and?"
EeoRaptor: "Well... they said they was in the west end. but.. all I found was a psycho bitch with a sword"
RufusSafer: Sano's eyes flick. "Waht?"
EeoRaptor: "Now mosta the west end is burned down... so... I doubt he's there..."
RufusSafer: Sano grabs Tasuki by the front. "Grrr.... YOU FOUGHT A PREGNANT WOMAN?!!!"
EeoRaptor: "Erk!! Hey hey... I needed money.. and she looked like an easy target!"
RufusSafer: Sano promtly tosses him into the wall. "For that you needed to be pounded!"
EeoRaptor: "Ehh.. c'mon... I aint got money... havent eaten in days... I owe this bar my life from trying to drink away my sorrow..."
RufusSafer: Sano growls. "NOTHING justifies attacking a PREGNANT woman."
EeoRaptor: "She could more than defend herself pal!!" Tasuki squeaks... cowering
RufusSafer: Sano punched him hard in the gut just as Kenshin walked in
EeoRaptor: "Sano?"
RufusSafer: "This bastard is the one that attacked that girl!"
EeoRaptor: "And burned down half the west end?" Kenshin asks... moving over to look at Tasuki... who's thrown up from the punch
RufusSafer: Sano nods. ":Yep."
EeoRaptor: "We should take him back to the hotel then.. they'll be interested in meeting him there"
RufusSafer: Sano grabbed Tasuki up and carried him from the bar without paying
EeoRaptor: Kenshin shrugs at the barkeeper and follows Sano out
RufusSafer: "allen! Hey, look what we found.. the guy that was fighting with your lil sister."
EeoRaptor: Allen looks up from his preparations.... and storms over to Sano to look at the bandit
RufusSafer: Sano dropped Tasuki to the ground and kicked him in the rib s
EeoRaptor: tasuki groans and clutches his chest
RufusSafer: "He's got the sword.." Van sighed.
EeoRaptor: "good.. one less thing we have to waste time on" Allen says.. taking the sword and heading to his sister to hand it over
RufusSafer: She took it and glared at Tasuki. "Give me one reason NOT to kill you..."
EeoRaptor: "I dunno.... give me one reason to live... I cant find Zel..."
RufusSafer: "And I can't find Folken."
EeoRaptor: tasuki just hangs his head... he doesnt know what to say.... he doesnt think he's ever gonna find Zel
RufusSafer: She folded her arms
EeoRaptor: "G'head an kill me if thats what ya wanna do..."
RufusSafer: "If this child is hurt in any way fr5om what you did I swear I will..."
EeoRaptor: Tasuki frowns
RufusSafer: "better hope it';s ok."
EeoRaptor: Tasuki nods "Then... what'r ya gonna do with me/"
RufusSafer: "Now? Up tot hem."
EeoRaptor: Tasuki grimaces... not wanting to leave his fate up to the guy who keeps beating on him
RufusSafer: Sano cracks his knuckles
EeoRaptor: "Oh man.... "
RufusSafer: "I'd love to hurt him."
EeoRaptor: "Look... cant we just hurt me after we finish checkin out the west end?"
RufusSafer: Sano sighed"Ok ok."
EeoRaptor: Tasuki sighs with relief
RufusSafer: Sano hugged Ken tight.
EeoRaptor: "Alright then... we'll check out his west end... and he'd better hope theres something useful there"
RufusSafer: Van nodded. "Yea... hell, what is this guy's story anyway?"
EeoRaptor: "If you keep him from hittin me I'll tell ya" Tasuki says.. pointing at Sano
RufusSafer: "Fine.. spill it."
EeoRaptor: "I will then... My partner... Zelgadis.. he disappeared 4 months ago.. without a trace... didnt take anythin with him... so I started lookin.. and I heard about more kidnappings... and... well I got a hint to come to this town...."
RufusSafer: "Damn.. that makes three..."
EeoRaptor: "I dont know.. if the guy that told me to come here was joshin me... but.. I gotta check it out
RufusSafer: "My brother and their friend..."
EeoRaptor: "well.. we should check this guy's lead out.. " Allen says... impatiently... he wants to help his sister
RufusSafer: Dil went back inside to rest
EeoRaptor: Kenshin nods "Lets go... and hope that he's right"
RufusSafer: "Ya.." Van nodded.
EeoRaptor: Allen hugs Van as they set out... he's anxious to get his sister the help she needs... then return to a normal life
RufusSafer: Sano smiled at Kenshin. "Let's hope she's there."
EeoRaptor: Kenshin nods "So we can get back to our l ife..."
RufusSafer: "Yep.. our life of wandering."
EeoRaptor: “Lets go... “
RufusSafer: Sano nodded and walked with him.
EeoRaptor: Tasuki leads the way.. altho the others watch him like a hawk
RufusSafer: Sano is keeping his eyes on him
EeoRaptor: "Okay guys... this is tha west end.. where I heard my pal is.."
RufusSafer: Van folded his arm. “If you ambush us..."
EeoRaptor: "No man. I swear.. here.. " Tasuki says handing over his fan
RufusSafer: Sanosuke took it.
EeoRaptor: "Thats my weapon... I'll go into this unarmed if ya dont trust me"
RufusSafer: "I don't trust you. What is this thing?"
EeoRaptor: "Its my fan... you wave it and it makes fire"
RufusSafer: Sano opened it and blinked.
EeoRaptor: "D.. dont man!! "
RufusSafer: "what? why?"
EeoRaptor: "coz... it can incinerate just about anythin"
RufusSafer: Sano flicks it.
EeoRaptor: Tasuki flinches away
RufusSafer: Fire spreads out from it. "Woah...
EeoRaptor: "careful with that damnit!"
RufusSafer: "I'm keeping this."
EeoRaptor: "Hey!! Thats my livelihood there!"
RufusSafer: "You're a thief..."
EeoRaptor: "Not when I got my partner..."
RufusSafer: "But you are a thief.."
EeoRaptor: "yah... but not when I got my partner... we're tombraiders when he's around to disarm the magical stuff"
RufusSafer: "Tomb raiders??!"
EeoRaptor: "Yeah... we collect artifacts an sell em to museums
RufusSafer: Sano sighed. "Man...'
EeoRaptor: "And I need my fan for that.... specially for some of the things that come after us"
RufusSafer: Sano pitches it at his head
EeoRaptor: Tasuki catches it deftly "You'd be surprised what the ancients left behind"
RufusSafer: Van pushed past Sano and looked at Tasuki. "what sort of things?"
EeoRaptor: "Oh.. like this " Tasuki says.. taking a pendant very like what hitomi had out of his shirt and holding it up
RufusSafer: Van's eyes go wide and he snatches the pendant.
EeoRaptor: "Hey!"
RufusSafer: "This... where did you find it?"
EeoRaptor: "in a ruin..."
RufusSafer: "Where?"
EeoRaptor: "Up north...'
RufusSafer: Van clutched the pendant and closed his eyes. "Mother.. I can almost hear my mother's voice..."
EeoRaptor: "ehh?"
RufusSafer: "Mom...." He smiled a little but a tear came to his eye. "Mom, help me find my brother..."
EeoRaptor: "Whats wrong with him?" Tasuki asks.. a little peeved that his pendant was taken
RufusSafer: Sanosuke shrugged. "How should i know?"
EeoRaptor: Allen goes over to Van... worried that he might get trapped by the pendant
RufusSafer: He lets the pendant dangle from his hand... letting it swing
EeoRaptor: "Van?"
RufusSafer: "mother.. show me the way to Folken..."
EeoRaptor: Allen steps back and watches
RufusSafer: the pendant was starting to swing... he was using what hitomi had taught him...
EeoRaptor: Allen watches.. and waits"
RufusSafer: "Please.. show me.." Van begged.. the pendant starting to glow
EeoRaptor: Kenshin watches as well... this is quite interesting to him
RufusSafer: Van's eyes opend as the pendant pointed. "Tehre... out there!" he pointed toward the horrizen
EeoRaptor: Out there?"
RufusSafer: "Yes... we go." Van started to walk
EeoRaptor: Allen follows... worried about Van now

EeoRaptor: Folken is... lounging... theres nothing else to do... no way out...
RufusSafer: Zelgadis walked to him, sighing. "Do you always sit by the waterfall like that?"
EeoRaptor: "What am I supposed to do?" He asks... sitting up
RufusSafer: "I don't know." Zelgadis sat down. "I still can't find any way out."
EeoRaptor: "I gave up trying... there is no way out... and my... Dil... I hope she's okay..."
RufusSafer: "Your wife right?"
EeoRaptor: "we .. didnt get a chance to marry.."
RufusSafer: "But in spirit?"
EeoRaptor: "yes..."
RufusSafer: "Tell me about her again.."
EeoRaptor: "She's.. wonderful...."
RufusSafer: Zelgadis folded his hands, hanging on folken's words
EeoRaptor: "Soft hair.. warm body.. everything i could want.... her personality.. while rocky... is still wonderful...'
RufusSafer: "What was she like?"
EeoRaptor: "She would get very very angry at times... but..."
RufusSafer: "But?"
EeoRaptor: "I still loved her..."
RufusSafer: "How did you two meet?"
EeoRaptor: "She found me on a streetcorner handing out religious material..."
RufusSafer: Zelgadis blinked. "You're kidding.."
EeoRaptor: "well that wasnt the first time'

RufusSafer: "When was the first time then?"
RufusSafer: Years ago....
EeoRaptor: Folken was still getting used to his new arm... and title
RufusSafer: Folken was being taken to meet their new dragon slayer... who was heavily training in the training room.. alone...
EeoRaptor: The first of many he would have under his command.... or so he was told
RufusSafer: The general showed Folken in. "I'd like you to meet Dilendau, the pride and joy of the academy..."
RufusSafer: A boy, no older then 10.. same age really as Van... was there holdign a sword, slashing targets. he was dressed in a thin tunic and slacks.
EeoRaptor: Folken looks at him.. not sure what to make of it "a boy?"
RufusSafer: "Well... um... I guess..." The general wasn't sure what to say. "Talk to him Folken.." He walked out.
EeoRaptor: Folken sighs.... "I have command over a boy... how... exiting"
RufusSafer: The boy stopped and glared at him, lowering his sword. "boy.. hmph... i don't like being called that..." The voice was quite feminan though kinda husky.
EeoRaptor: "I didnt know the great Zaibach army employed children ..."
RufusSafer: his hair had been shut off and he was wearing something around his head, a crystal shining in the middle. "Don't call me a child..." He growled.
EeoRaptor: "Well thats what you are isnt it?"
RufusSafer: "No... I am Dilendau, the dragon slayer..."
EeoRaptor: "I see... you look like a boy to me... not a very masculine one either...."
RufusSafer: The boy's red eyes flahed. "Hmph, that's because I wasn't one till lately when those sorcerer freaks decided to have some fun.. changing.. me..."
EeoRaptor: Folken raises an eyebrow
RufusSafer: The boy walked rather gracefully over to him.
EeoRaptor: Folken looks at him up close... not much to him... he looked quite weak actually
RufusSafer: "Are you here to.. fight.. with me?"
EeoRaptor: "Fight?"
RufusSafer: "Yes.. you know.. with swords..."
EeoRaptor: "I cant fight right now... " Folken says... swining his clawed arm out from under his cloak
RufusSafer: "Hmph,.. then what good are you?"
EeoRaptor: "I am your commanding officer...
RufusSafer: "So what?"
EeoRaptor: "So you will follow my orders"
RufusSafer: "and your orders are?"
EeoRaptor: "I dont know... "
RufusSafer: Dilendau let out a laugh. "Just brilliant."
EeoRaptor: "I havent been given any orders myself"
RufusSafer: "Hmph.. then go over there while I train."
EeoRaptor: Folken shrugs and goes to sit down... not liking this rude child
RufusSafer: He was quite rude... and only seemed to care about fighting
EeoRaptor: Folken sighs.. missing his family...
RufusSafer: Dil struck each target, shattering them
EeoRaptor: A dogman comes in to collect the boy "Come.. Celena... training is over"
RufusSafer: He turns to the man. "Don't call me that, It’s Dilendau now, remember Jajuba?"
EeoRaptor: The dogman frowns "Yes... I... forget.. "
RufusSafer: He walked over to him. "It's ok... just try to remember..."
EeoRaptor: "I will... come now.. they want to check you over..."
RufusSafer: He sighed. "Again?? I'm really getting tired of them."
EeoRaptor: "I know... but they want to make sure you are stable...'
RufusSafer: "Stable??!" His smashed bhis sword through another practice dummy. "How dare they..."
EeoRaptor: The dogman backs up a step "Please.. come or they will punish me..."
RufusSafer: "I... I'm sorry." He walked out with him.. leaving Folken to puzzle the name
EeoRaptor: Folken frowns.. wondering what is going on
RufusSafer: That dog man had called the boy.. Celena.. but that's a GIRL'S name...
EeoRaptor: Come to mention... he had said he wasnt always a boy...
RufusSafer: Geez.. the empire was sick... turning children into soldiers...
EeoRaptor: Folken wonders why he's serving them... as he looks at his arm sadly
RufusSafer: Zelgadis frowned when Folken finished the story. "Woah..
EeoRaptor: "It was a sick world we came from... and being together ... helped heal the pain..."
RufusSafer: "She was a guy for a while?"
EeoRaptor: "yes..."
RufusSafer: "And then became a girl again? how did thatr happen?"
EeoRaptor: "Fate wore off.. I guess...'
RufusSafer: "and the empire?"
EeoRaptor: "Gone.. my brother saw the end of it"
RufusSafer: "How did you survive if you were soldiers?"
EeoRaptor: "I.. died"
RufusSafer: "Died?"
EeoRaptor: "Yes... well... they revived me somehow.. the brothers... I was the angel they were looking for
RufusSafer: "and her?"
EeoRaptor: "She... changed back to what she was before they altered her.... and was with her brother.."
RufusSafer: "So he was there to protect her I take it?"
EeoRaptor: "yes.... then we found each other again.. when she thought he had died...."
RufusSafer: "How sad..."
EeoRaptor: "Now... we... she's pregnant... she needs me ..."
RufusSafer: "When is she due?"
EeoRaptor: "Soon... draconian babies take less time.. than human..."
RufusSafer: "Draconian?"
EeoRaptor: "yes... Im.. not human" Folken says...
RufusSafer: Zelgadis nods. "I used to be fully human"
EeoRaptor: Folken slips out of his shirt and unfolds his wings "She may have problems delivering the child...."
RufusSafer: "Problems you could.. fix?"
EeoRaptor: "Yes.. my mother taught me what I needed to do.. for when I married a human woman.. Van never learned.. he was too young when she disappeared"
RufusSafer: "Oh... So you need to go back to her?"
EeoRaptor: "yes... she... may die"
RufusSafer: Zel frowned more. "we have to get out of here then.."
EeoRaptor: "Yes..."
RufusSafer: "What will you do if she...?"
EeoRaptor: "I... will .. kill myself... I cant.. live to think that I failed her"
RufusSafer: Zelgadis nodded. "I understand that... I don't think I can live withotu my beloved.."
EeoRaptor: "I just wantt o know where we are... and wh y..."
RufusSafer: "I wish to know who did it..."
EeoRaptor: "yes..."
RufusSafer: "It's like we are in a zoo on display or something."
EeoRaptor: Folken lies back... and sighs
RufusSafer: "I jsut hope we arn;t meant to mate with.. that girl..." refuring to Karou
EeoRaptor: "Im dedicated to my wife.. "
RufusSafer: "And I don';t like girls.."
EeoRaptor: Folken curls up... he doesnt want to exist anymore... not without his dilendau... he needs her... and she mos definately needs him
RufusSafer: if they didn't get out of there they were both going to die
EeoRaptor: He from lonliness.. and despair... she from... both her and the child...
RufusSafer: At least... Van knew where they were now, no that folken knew that
EeoRaptor: He would find them.... and.. hopefully it wouldnt be too late
RufusSafer: Van clutched to Allen
EeoRaptor: "Van?"
RufusSafer: "Folken..."
EeoRaptor: "what?"
RufusSafer: we';re getting closer"
EeoRaptor: "We are?"
RufusSafer: "i can feel him Allen.. my brother.."
EeoRaptor: "Where...?"
RufusSafer: "close..." He ,looks up. "Oh.. gods.."
EeoRaptor: Allen blinks... and looks up as well
RufusSafer: There was something floating up there... mostly cloaked.... something huge...
EeoRaptor: "What is that/"
RufusSafer: "can't you... see.. it?"
EeoRaptor: "some if it... but..."
RufusSafer: "Folken!!!" Van's wings rip freee
EeoRaptor: "Van... wait!!"
RufusSafer: Van tried to fly up. "FOLKEN!!!"
EeoRaptor: Allen grabs for him.. not sure he wants Van flying off alone
RufusSafer: Van was pulled down ontop of him. "I have to get up there!"
EeoRaptor: "Van.. how are we supposed to get up there?"
RufusSafer: "I can fly!"
EeoRaptor: "but... we cant... I dont want you running into danger alone!"
RufusSafer: "But..." Van sighed. "If only I had Escaflowne..."
EeoRaptor: "van... If I let you go.. promise me... that you'll find a way for us to get up there... instead of rushing into danger.."
RufusSafer: "Yes..." he paused, "What about your melf?"
EeoRaptor: "Mine cant fly Van..."
RufusSafer: "Oh right... Your sister's can fly yours can't..
EeoRaptor: "Yes... but we dont have my sisters... Go.. go up and see what you can find... "
RufusSafer: "damn it... If I had escaflowne we could all get up there..."
EeoRaptor: "Shh.. go... we dont have Escaflowne... or time"
RufusSafer: Van nodded and flapped his wings, taking off again.. Yahiko and Sano both looked shocked, having never seen the wings before.. and tasuki was probably worse off otr something
EeoRaptor: Allen watches... waiting... hoping Van isnt a fool
RufusSafer: "Whaaa...?" Sano finnaly asked.
EeoRaptor: "He's an ancient" Allen explains
RufusSafer: "An ancient..."
EeoRaptor: "like.. the ones who I steal stuff from.. ?" Tasuki asks shakily
RufusSafer: Sano nodded shakelyu. "I.. i guess."
EeoRaptor: "ooooh Im dead... " Tasuki whimpers
RufusSafer: "What is this melef thing he spoke of?"
EeoRaptor: "They ... are big machines you can fight in... but its hard to run them now that energists are hard to come by"
RufusSafer: "And they can get us up there?"
EeoRaptor: "If we had the Zaibach models... yes"
RufusSafer: "then where can we get them?"
EeoRaptor: "my sister has one... but... I dont know where it is... she can whistle for it to come..."
RufusSafer: "Damn it.. maybe if you ask her..."
EeoRaptor: "I'd have to go back into town..."
RufusSafer: "then let's go... maybe she can get us these things."
EeoRaptor: "Alright..."
RufusSafer: "Good..."
RufusSafer: van is too high up to see now...
EeoRaptor: "Lets go... before Van gets hurt.. " Allen says... jogging off towards the town
RufusSafer: Dilendau was asleep in bed when they returned, sword at her side.
EeoRaptor: Allen goes over and very gently shakes her
RufusSafer: She springs awake, the swor at his throat in an instant before she notices it';s him.
EeoRaptor: "eck... !!" Allen squeaks....
RufusSafer: "allen!" she put the sword down and hugged him.
EeoRaptor: "we need your help... now.. we've found Folken"
RufusSafer: "WHERE!?" She sprung up.
EeoRaptor: "Van flew up to him... we cant get up there... we need your melef..."
RufusSafer: She was out the door with her sword in an instant
EeoRaptor: Allen sighs and follows "slow down !!
RufusSafer: She whistled, then leaped up to the cockpit.
EeoRaptor: "Wait... for us!!" allen pants
RufusSafer: But the Melef took off before she could hear him.
EeoRaptor: Allen drops to his knees "Damnit..."
RufusSafer: Sano caught up with him. "Damn it.. does she even know where she';s going?"
EeoRaptor: "no... "
RufusSafer: "Is she.. always,.,.. that impulsive?"
EeoRaptor: "Yes... well... not as Celena.. but.. she's... more him now..."
RufusSafer: "Him?" Sano rubbed his head.
EeoRaptor: "yeah... its too hard to explain"
RufusSafer: "Is there anywhere else we can find... more of those?"
EeoRaptor: "not that I know I of...'
EeoRaptor: Allen smacks his fist into his hand "The Crusade!"
RufusSafer: "The what?"

EeoRaptor: "My airship... its moored in a warehouse... I.... sold it.. but I can still ask to use it"
RufusSafer: "Airship?"
EeoRaptor: "Yes... levistones... its slow but it will get us ther"
RufusSafer: Sano nods,. "Alright then, let's go."
EeoRaptor: Allen leads them to the warehouse... and after bickering with the man there for a bit he comes back with the keys "quick help me undo the lines"
RufusSafer: Sano nods and helps him out, leaving Kenshin to watch over Yahiko
EeoRaptor: "We might as well get onboard Yahiko.."
RufusSafer: Yahiko sighed. "Let's go then."
EeoRaptor: Kenshin ushers the boy onboard... wanting to find Kaoru so he can get back to life...
RufusSafer: Life with Sano who was happily cutting the ropes
RufusSafer: When he was done Sano joined them on the airship.
EeoRaptor: "Alright... everyone onboard" Allen yells.. poking Tasuki up the gangplank
RufusSafer: Yahiko ran on, looking about. "How does this.. fly?"
EeoRaptor: You'll see... I need two of you to stoke..
RufusSafer: "Stoke?"
RufusSafer: Sano grinned. "Hey, Kenny and i will do it cause we're the strongest."
EeoRaptor: Kenshin picks up a shovel and goes where Allen tells them to
"You need heat to increase the flotation of the stones..."
RufusSafer: "How do we do that?" Sano picked u p his own.
RufusSafer: Sano listened and went with Kenshin
EeoRaptor: "I'll tell you when you need to feed the fire.. just get one lit in the furnace..."
RufusSafer: "Got ya!"
EeoRaptor: "When I holler you have to pull the lever beside it to heat the stones.. for when we dock.. "
RufusSafer: Sano smiled at Kenshin as they were alone
EeoRaptor: "Now now Sano behave..."
RufusSafer: "Well.. I'm allowed to think right?"
EeoRaptor: "This is important... no time for fooling around"
RufusSafer: "I.. I know." Sano nodded. "Hye, you think the girl has found him yet?"
EeoRaptor: "Who.... the girl in the melf... thing?"
RufusSafer: "yea, her."
RufusSafer: "Think she's ok?"
EeoRaptor: "I hope so.. she is pregnant.."
RufusSafer: "That she is...a nd she took off so fast."
EeoRaptor: "She didnt even know where she was going..."
RufusSafer: "True... I hope she's ok."
RufusSafer: Yahiko watched Allen as they took off
EeoRaptor: Allen was an expert at operating the ship... pulling it neatly out of the warehouse and sending it upwards
RufusSafer: Yahiko fell over with a cry. 'Ahh!! you lunictic!"
EeoRaptor: "Hush you... " Allen says.. "This is a matter of importance.. and Im going to push this ship as fast as she'll go
RufusSafer: "You'll kill us all!!"
RufusSafer: at the floating thingy Van is flying around the outside still... looking for a way in
EeoRaptor: There didnt seem to be a way in.. the hull of whatever it was was perfectly smooth
RufusSafer: He did not like this.. there had to be a way in somehow... because his brother was in there!
RufusSafer: Van rested on the top of the hull, sighing hard.
EeoRaptor: It was quite obvious that he wasnt welcome.... he just couldnt find a way in...
RufusSafer: that's when he remembered the pendent in his hand. He closd his eyes and let it swing. "Mother.. help me find a way in..."
EeoRaptor: As if in answer.. he feels an odd sinking sensation... and before he can realize what going on... he's literally sinking through the hull
RufusSafer: "Ahh!" he spread his wings out once he was inside the 'paradise' to keep himself from falling
EeoRaptor: The place was huge... An artificial sun blazed directly above him.. yet didnt harm... below there were lush fields and jungle... and even a small ocean
RufusSafer: "Wh-where am I?" He soared over the place.
EeoRaptor: There wasnt any reply... just a warm breeze blowing through his hair...
RufusSafer: He thought then started shouting "FOLKENN!!!!!!"
EeoRaptor: Folken sits up from where he's lying... he swears he hears his brother's voice.. ever so faintly
RufusSafer: "FOLKEENN!!!!" Van screams, flying about.
EeoRaptor: Folken takes to the air... "VAAAAN!"
RufusSafer: Van hears his brother's voice and starts flying for it. "FOLKEN!!!"
EeoRaptor: Folken sees Van... and starts pumping his wings hard.. so happy to see him....
RufusSafer: Van streams right into his arms and holds into him, sobbing.
EeoRaptor: "Van.. how.. did you get here?" Folken asks.. taking them back down to the ground
RufusSafer: Van cuddled to him. "I.. fell.. through the top of the hull of whatever we are on.."
EeoRaptor: "That means.... we're not somewhere.. we're in something..."
RufusSafer: "Yes..... I hope Allen gets here soon..."
EeoRaptor: "Allen?" Folken asks.. knowing nothing about his brother's exploits as of now
RufusSafer: "He went to ask his sister if he could borrow her melf..."
EeoRaptor: "Dilendau... is.. she alright?"
RufusSafer: "Well.... " Van frowns. "I'm not sure what to say about alright.. last time I saw her befoer this she tried to kill me and when I saw her last she had gotten through eating everything at the inn"
EeoRaptor: Folken frowns "I have to get to her..."
RufusSafer: "Ya.. she's.. pregnant and all..."
EeoRaptor: "Im sorry Van... I should have looked for you... but my life... became entwined with hers...
RufusSafer: Van sniffled against him. "I didn't think you'd be with her..."
EeoRaptor: "Does it bother you?"
RufusSafer: "She did burn down our home..."
EeoRaptor: "I know... but.. she's a lot better... and I love her... "
RufusSafer: "You clearly do seeing that she's.. pregnant.
EeoRaptor: "yes.. I have to find a way out of here... if you came in through the hull... perhaps we can get out..."
RufusSafer: "Yea... we'll have to fly up."
EeoRaptor: "If we find a way out we will have to get the others out too..."
RufusSafer: "Others? Oh ya.. how many others?"
EeoRaptor: "Just Zelgadis and Kaoru... that I know about... this place is huge"
RufusSafer: "Alright." Van let go and flapped his wings.
EeoRaptor: Folken follows him upwards
RufusSafer: Van flies and flies and crzashes into the top.
EeoRaptor: Folken catches him "Are you alright??"
RufusSafer: "Itaiiii..." Van seems to have little birdies flyiong around his head.
EeoRaptor: Folken frowns ... and places his hand against the hull above him
RufusSafer: Van snaps out of it. "trapped???"
EeoRaptor: "It wont budge"
RufusSafer: "We can't get out??!"
EeoRaptor: "doesnt look like it .... " Folken says with a sigh
EeoRaptor: "My only hope now is that she somehow finds her way here..."
RufusSafer: "What?" Van turns to look at him, not knowing what he knows.
EeoRaptor: Folken returns to the ground.. heading for his sulking spot
RufusSafer: "brother?" van flies down, following him.
EeoRaptor: "van.. she could die... mother never taught you....
RufusSafer: "What? How? Folken?"
EeoRaptor: "Human women dont have .... Draconian women... when their child is born it is encased in a protective membrane... sort of like when a foal is born... humans cant produce that... so..."
RufusSafer: Van suddenly got it and winced. "Mother taught you how...?"
EeoRaptor: "I had to practice the motions on human women... you have to reach inside and smoothe the wing stubs down and keep them down.."
RufusSafer: "Ouch, that would hurt either way.. and hard to do correctly without hurting one of the other..."
EeoRaptor: "yes.... but you are able to slip a band around the child to hold the wings in place without causing much harm to mother or child
RufusSafer: Van nodded slowly. "Oh. So that's what you have to do?"

EeoRaptor: "Yes... "
RufusSafer: Van nodded. "Sounds.. simple."
EeoRaptor: "Its not easy though... you have to reach a slip noose in... and get it around... and tighten it enough to hold but not harm
RufusSafer: "So if anyone else tried it they might do it wrong?"
EeoRaptor: "might.. but they could... although I dont think she'd let anyone else touch her"
RufusSafer: "True.... She'd rather tie a noose around MY neck..."
EeoRaptor: Folken pats Van "We're all family now.. and she's calmed down. a lot"
RufusSafer: "Um.. you didn't see her burn down part of a town after a guy attacked her,..."
EeoRaptor: "Oh dear... she's probably upset since Im not there..
RufusSafer: "Yea... very... and she said she was having a hard time moving what with her being pregnant and all..."
EeoRaptor: Folken frowns.. "I want to be with her... this isnt fair..."
RufusSafer: "I know.."
RufusSafer: Van hugged him
EeoRaptor: Folken curls into a ball and weeps...... probably the first time Van's ever seen him do that
RufusSafer: "Folken?" Van blinks, not sure why his brother is crying
EeoRaptor: "I need to get out of here..."
RufusSafer: "I knwo you do. Why cry?"
EeoRaptor: "Because if she dies.. "
RufusSafer: "You'll die if you don't get out of here?"
EeoRaptor: "yes..."
RufusSafer: "Over her?"
EeoRaptor: "yes.... "
RufusSafer: "If Allen died I.. I'd kill myself..."
EeoRaptor: "I promised I'd never leave her..."
RufusSafer: "Who took you?"
EeoRaptor: "I dont even know"
RufusSafer: "Man.. that sucks."
RufusSafer: Meanwhile the ship was almost tehre
EeoRaptor: "Lets dock her up top... on that flattish spot.. " Allen says.. peering through the scope
RufusSafer: Yahiko nods. "you think that's where they are?"
EeoRaptor: "Yes.. Im going to take her above and then we're going down..."
RufusSafer: "Alright.. I'll brace myself."
EeoRaptor: Allen calls through the tube down to where Kenshin and Sano.... "Get ready down there.."
RufusSafer: "YEs sir!" Sano shouts, nodding to Ken
EeoRaptor: Allen gets the ship in position.. then yells for Sano and Ken to pull the lever
RufusSafer: Sano pulls it down hard
EeoRaptor: The ship drops like a rock... Until allen hollers for Sano to let go of the lever
RufusSafer: Sano lets go... but.. he pulled way to hard... he blinks that cute little anime way
EeoRaptor: The ship crashes against the hull... sending everyone flying.. but luckily... she's built to last
RufusSafer: Sano slid down the where ever they are and fell, grabbing hold of anything he can get his hands on
EeoRaptor: Which is kenshin... whose got his shovel jammed into the wall to stay still
EeoRaptor: Allen groans and presses the button for the docking gear to latch on...
RufusSafer: Sano dangels over the edge of the ship.. holding onto Ken's leg.
EeoRaptor: "Sanooo... dont let go.." Kenshin squeaks"
RufusSafer: "Gah... What is this place?" Is holding on by one hand.
EeoRaptor: "dont know..."
RufusSafer: Sano tries reaching his otehr hand up to Kenshin's leg.
EeoRaptor: The hull has already begun to absorb the ship... it seems it does that to anything that stays on it
RufusSafer: "I don't like these heights.."
EeoRaptor: Once the ship falls through the hull.... hopefully the stones will keep it afloat
RufusSafer: The ship crashes into the top once it is through, throwing them again,
EeoRaptor: Kenshin squeeks.. getting tossed the other way
RufusSafer: He can hear Sano yelp as he is tossed out.
EeoRaptor: "Sanooo!!!" Kenshin screams... leaping to his feet on the now righted ship and racin to the edge.. to find nothing...
RufusSafer: Yahiko hears Kenshin screaming
RufusSafer: he runs down to see what's going on
EeoRaptor: "sano.. sano.... " Kenshin whimpers... sitting on the edge
RufusSafer: "Kenshin?" Yahiko gets down and peers at him.
EeoRaptor: "He fell.. "
RufusSafer: "What?"
RufusSafer: Yahiko walked over to him
EeoRaptor: "He fell.. look.. "
RufusSafer: Yahiko looked out over the edge... not seeing much
EeoRaptor: They were floating above the paradise... but there were a few clouds in the way
RufusSafer: Yahiko paled and backed away from Kenshin
EeoRaptor: Kenshin looks as if he might just jump...
RufusSafer: "Kenshin... we need you..."
EeoRaptor: "Sano.... I need him"
RufusSafer: Yahiko tried to pull him. "He wouldn';t want you hanging here... we came in to do a mission..."
EeoRaptor: "but..."
RufusSafer: "Please Kenshin.. we need you now."
RufusSafer: Yahiko was pleading with him.
RufusSafer: "Please..."
RufusSafer: Van heard the crash and looked up.
EeoRaptor: Folken looks up from his sobs as well
RufusSafer: "Allen... oh my.. he got his ship???"
EeoRaptor: "Allen? Do you think... Dil is with him?"
RufusSafer: Van shook hishead. "I doubt ti.. she's probably still at the inn."
EeoRaptor: "Anyway... lets get up there.." Folken says... leaping up and into the air
RufusSafer: Van spread his wings. "Yea... let's go!"
EeoRaptor: Folken gets up to the ship... at the door where Kenshin is getting ready to jump... and knocks him back into the cabin of the ship
RufusSafer: Van lands next to him. "Kenshin?"
EeoRaptor: "Sano... fell out..."
RufusSafer: "What??" Van teetered.
EeoRaptor: Kenshin hangs his head "when the ship hit.. he.. fell.. down.."
RufusSafer: Van went to him and hugged him. "Kenshin..."
EeoRaptor: "He's gone... "
RufusSafer: Van didn't know what to say.
RufusSafer: "We need to get everyone out." Yahiko said.
RufusSafer: Yahiko was pulling on Ken's arm.
EeoRaptor: "yes... before anyone jumps... " Folken says "We can carry one at a time..."
RufusSafer: Van pulls Ken and jumps into the air with him.
EeoRaptor: Folken grabs Yahiko and does the same... all thats left to come back for is Allen
RufusSafer: and Tasuki
RufusSafer: Van talks with Kenshin down bellow.
EeoRaptor: Kenshin is trembling... on the verge of tears........... he has his sword out and the blade flipped to the sharp side
RufusSafer: "Kenshin,..."
RufusSafer: Van frowns, watching him
EeoRaptor: He's holding the blade... and shaking... wanting to commit suicide like a samurai
RufusSafer: Van pulled up on the sword gently. "Kenshin.. gods.. we need you.. to get the one who made this place.."
EeoRaptor: Kenshin sheathes his sword "For sano.. then... dont stop me.."
RufusSafer: "I won't... just.. let's get everyone out of here first.. ok?"
EeoRaptor: "fine... then.. dont stop me..."
RufusSafer: "Afterwards.. I won't...."
EeoRaptor: Kenshin nods

"Come Van.. " Folken says.. lets Fetch Allen down
RufusSafer: Van nods and helps his brother. "where's Tasuki?"
EeoRaptor: "Theres another up there?"
RufusSafer: "Ya."
EeoRaptor: "alright.. i'll get him" Folken says... going up to search for tasuki
RufusSafer: Van clings to his allen and flies him down
EeoRaptor: Folken Drags tasuki out of his hiding spot and takes him down before the crusade starts to fall apart
EeoRaptor: Allen cuddles van "I was so worried..."
RufusSafer: Van holds him next to Kenshin.. poor Allen didn't hear the news yet
EeoRaptor: "My sister isnt here yet?"
RufusSafer: "No... she'll die if Folken doesn't get to her..."
EeoRaptor: "Die... " Allen says with a frown.. looking around "Wheres Sanosuke?"
RufusSafer: Yahiko winces, sure Kenshin is about to get violent or way upset
RufusSafer: "Yah.. she'll die..." van nodded.
EeoRaptor: Kenshin just sits there... as if he was a rock
RufusSafer: Yahiko frowns. ":We gotta get going and find out how to get out of here."
EeoRaptor: Folken sighs "I havent been able to get out... "
RufusSafer: Van frowned. "Any buildings?"
EeoRaptor: "only the place where we get food..."
RufusSafer: "show me."
EeoRaptor: "this way" Folken says... leading them towards where the food is given out... usually where Kaoru and Zelgadis hang out
RufusSafer: Zelgadis asleep there... lookinvg like a rock...
EeoRaptor: Tasuki pounces him anyway.. not caring how much it hurts
RufusSafer: Zelgadis wakes. "eh? TASUKI!!!" He grabs him
EeoRaptor: "Zelllll!!"
RufusSafer: Zelgadis rolls around him with.
EeoRaptor: Folken sighs.. wishing his love was there
RufusSafer: Van hugs Allen's waist.
RufusSafer: Kauro spots Kenshin and rushes him
EeoRaptor: Kenshin just stands there...... as if he doesnt even notice her...
RufusSafer: "Kenshin??!!!"
EeoRaptor: "Im sorry Kaoru.."
RufusSafer: "Wehre have you been??"
EeoRaptor: "I left... because I needed to wander again.."
RufusSafer: "And Sano?"
RufusSafer: Yahiko hides behind Folken
EeoRaptor: "dead..."
RufusSafer: "WHAT??!"
EeoRaptor: "He .. fell out of the airship we were in.. just... not.. 15 minutes ago..."
RufusSafer: Kauro fell to her knees. "Sano..."
EeoRaptor: "My duty is to get you out of here now.." Kenshin says
RufusSafer: "Then let's go Kenshin..."
EeoRaptor: "I dont know how to get out "
RufusSafer: "Nor do we."
EeoRaptor: Folken sighs softly "I dont think there is a way"
RufusSafer: Van sighed, gazing at allen.
EeoRaptor: "What do we do now?" allen asks.... moving over to comfort Van
RufusSafer: "I'll be happy as long as I have you.."{
EeoRaptor: Allen nods... "even if we cant get out... I have you...."
RufusSafer: "And I you..." there comments were probably upsetting to both Folken and Kenshin...
EeoRaptor: "We have to get out.... Im not giving up..." Folken growls
RufusSafer: Van looked at his brother and nodded.

EeoRaptor: When sano opens his eyes... something.... pink... is staring at him
RufusSafer: Sano was on the bank of the water flow.. drenched from head to toe.. the last thing he rememberd was crashing into the water.
EeoRaptor: Someone pokes him.. "Hey... you alive?"
RufusSafer: "Uhhh...." He blinks, having a hard time focusing. "K-ken-shin?"
EeoRaptor: "No... who are you?"
RufusSafer: "Uh.... Sanosuke..."
RufusSafer: he blinks slowly
EeoRaptor: a small black haired boy with black wings is looking at him
RufusSafer: "Are you.. an ancient?"
EeoRaptor: "An ancient?"
RufusSafer: "You have.. wings.."
EeoRaptor: "oh... Im from Eden..."
RufusSafer: "wher eis that?"
EeoRaptor: "Another planet...'
RufusSafer: "Another.. planet?"
EeoRaptor: The boy nods
RufusSafer: "who are you?":
EeoRaptor: "My name is Chihaya"
RufusSafer: "Oh.... hi."
RufusSafer: Sano sits up slowly
EeoRaptor: "are you hurt?" He asks... crouching down..
RufusSafer: "I fell from the top..."
RufusSafer: "I'm shocked I'm alive.. I am alive right?"
EeoRaptor: "Of course.... what were you doing up there?"
RufusSafer: "Trying to come in tio rescue some people.
EeoRaptor: "oh... there is no way out.. "
RufusSafer: Sano rubs the back of his head then blinks at Chihaya. "Um, why are you here?"
EeoRaptor: "Dont know... dont even know how long Ive been here..."
RufusSafer: "so you were.. um.. captured?":
EeoRaptor: "yes..."
RufusSafer: "Oh." Sano got to his feet.
EeoRaptor: "Are there any others?"
RufusSafer: "With me? Tehre were... oh gods.. they probably think I died!!"
EeoRaptor: "Then we should find them... exept I dont think I could carry you"
RufusSafer: "Kenshin..." he uttered. "Gods.. please tell me you havn't done something stupid..."
EeoRaptor: "Let me call for my mate okay?"
RufusSafer: Sano nods. "Ok."
EeoRaptor: The little angel whistles loudly.. and an answering whistle comes from the jungle up the beach shortly after
RufusSafer: And then a flying form with short blonde hair flies over them
EeoRaptor: Chihaya waves him down
RufusSafer: He lands and smiles at Chihaya then looks at sano. "Where did this thing come from?"
EeoRaptor: "From the sky love"
RufusSafer: "Great.. they are dropping from the sky now? He's all dirty too."
EeoRaptor: "He needs us to help find his friends.. can you carry him?"
RufusSafer: He sighed. "I'll get all dirty!"
EeoRaptor: "Oh please.. it just means you can get a bath with me..."
RufusSafer: "Good... just make sure you don't come up with some excuse.. it's getting bad haviong to sit under that cold waterfall..."
EeoRaptor: "Hmph.... c'mon... theres ways to warm it up... Im sure his friends are on the main contenant that we started off on..."
RufusSafer: "Ya.. fine..." The blonde angel picked Sano up.
EeoRaptor: "C'mon... " Chihaya says... fluttering off into the sky
RufusSafer: The other followed him, flapping his wings.
RufusSafer: Zelgadis looked at the building carefully. "Our food isn't here..."
EeoRaptor: "Is it always there?" Allen asks
RufusSafer: "Yes... we have to get in there!"
EeoRaptor: "Get in there? Why?
RufusSafer: "To get fed.. and maybe get out!" Zelgadis growled. "That's it.. I'm trying another spell.. who cartes what happend last time!" He stepped back and shouted "DIGGER BOLT!!!" and cast it at the door
EeoRaptor: Tasuki squeaks and jumps away.. not liking spells one bit
RufusSafer: The door cast the spell back at him and he was thrown
EeoRaptor: "Zel!" Tasuki shouts.. rushing to him
RufusSafer: Zel looks like a charred rock.. that coughs
EeoRaptor: "You okay hun?"
RufusSafer: "Uhhh..." He falls out cold.
EeoRaptor: "man.. Zelly wake up!"
RufusSafer: Van looked at the door and pulled out his sword. "Let me try this.." He walked forward.
EeoRaptor: "Van be careful!"
RufusSafer: Van closes his eyes and readies his sword... then suddenly he pitches forward and jams it into the door.
EeoRaptor: "Van!!" allen shouts.. closing his eyes ... afraid of what might happen
RufusSafer: There was an explosion.... and suddenly loud alarms sounded as the smoke was just starting to fall.
EeoRaptor: "What did you do?"
RufusSafer: Van was laying on the ground when Allen opened his eyes again
RufusSafer: the door was wide open now
EeoRaptor: "Van...." allen rushes to him.. shaking him
RufusSafer: Van drools a little, holdiong his sword in quivering hands.
EeoRaptor: "Are you okay? Speak to me?""
RufusSafer: "allen..." He whispered, eyes staring up at him
EeoRaptor: "Van... " Allen says.. gathering him up
RufusSafer: Van's sword falls to the ground
EeoRaptor: "Please... be okay... " Allen whimpers
RufusSafer: Van slowly moved his arms around him whispering "let's go..."
EeoRaptor: "Okay... " allen says.. "Someone get his sword" Allen says.. stepping into the building
RufusSafer: Yahiko ran along inside, looking about. "Wow."
EeoRaptor: Folken looks around.. "its different"
RufusSafer: "That alarm is annoying."
EeoRaptor: "Least it will let whoever runs this place know we mean business"
RufusSafer: "Good... let's go after them.." Yahiko looked around for Kenshin
EeoRaptor: Kenshin was still outside... not sure he wanted to enter
RufusSafer: inside was the one responcible for this palce.. and for Sano not being there...
EeoRaptor: Kenshin steps inside... and looks around
RufusSafer: The place was dark and the others were already up ahead.
EeoRaptor: Kenshin moves slowly... using his warrior sensese now... the darkness inside of him awake again
RufusSafer: the one responcible was in there...
RufusSafer: the place was like a maze... and he got split off from the others
EeoRaptor: he'd find and destroy them
RufusSafer: his vow of never killing no longer mattered
EeoRaptor: Not when what he loved most was taken
RufusSafer: someone he feered he'd never see again.. even in death
EeoRaptor: He'd make who took him away pay
RufusSafer: pay dearly.. whatever it took
EeoRaptor: Tasuki is still poking Zel... begging him to get up
RufusSafer: Sano drops off teh blonde angel's grip and lands near them. "what's the problem?"
EeoRaptor: "They went inside and left us"
RufusSafer: "What's wrong with him?"
EeoRaptor: "He tried to use his magic on the door"
RufusSafer: "And now?"
EeoRaptor: "He wont get up."
RufusSafer: "Is he.. dead?"
EeoRaptor: "No.. he's breathing."
RufusSafer: "Ok.. where's Kenshin?"
EeoRaptor: "inside... he thinks youre dead.... tried to kill himself.."
RufusSafer: "Great.. but he's still alive right?"
EeoRaptor: "Last I saw yea"
RufusSafer: he turns tot he two angels. "Can you look after these two?" And without waiting he runs into the door after Kenshin
EeoRaptor: "We get to babysit now.. " Chihaya says... sitting down
RufusSafer: The blonde sighed. "Is it ever anything different/"
EeoRaptor: Chihaya rolls his eyes at him
RufusSafer: the blonde grinned.
RufusSafer: Van meanwhile was holding onto his sword, carefully searching...
RufusSafer: Van steps on something and looks down.. hearing a mechanical device wirr.
EeoRaptor: Suddenly he drops down into nothingness...... with a yelp from Allen behind him
RufusSafer: "AHH!!!!!!!" Yells as he falls.. too narrow a passaged to get his wings out
EeoRaptor: "Vaaan!!!" Allen shouts... peering down the vent... prepared to jump after him
RufusSafer: Van tumbled, loosing the grip on his sword.
EeoRaptor: Folken grabs Allen ... shaking his head "No good to lose you both..."
RufusSafer: Yahiko frowns. "I hope he'll be ok.." The thing shut again
EeoRaptor: "He'll be fine... it takes a lot to beat him up" Folken says with a sigh
RufusSafer: Van crashed into the floor, grunting... at least he didn't land on his sword.
EeoRaptor: The lighting was quite dim where he landed.... and numerous monitors and control panels were set up
RufusSafer: Slowly Van opens his eyes. "Where.. where am I?"
EeoRaptor: It seemed he was at the control center of whatever they were on
RufusSafer: He stood up and glanced around for his sword
EeoRaptor: Something had already scuttled off with it
RufusSafer: "Damn it..." He looked around some more then approuched the computer panal.
EeoRaptor: Strange writing... flashed across the screen in soft green
RufusSafer: Van lifted his fingers and placed them on the screen "what.. is this?"
EeoRaptor: Whatever he did seemed to cause a reaction.. as a picture of the paradise popped up on a screen nearby
RufusSafer: "What the?" Van looked at it, backing up a few steps.
EeoRaptor: It seemed that whoever lived her watched the inhabitants of the paradise... for he could see a few people standing around in a group........ ones he hadnt met
RufusSafer: He cocked his head and strained for a better look at them.
EeoRaptor: They were furry...
RufusSafer: He didn't know any of them and turned his head, looking around the room he was in
EeoRaptor: It seemed whoever lived here had a thing for collecting people..
RufusSafer: "So many people... why are they all here?" He asked aloud.
EeoRaptor: A strange voice flits through his mind... like a thousand soft whispers "For my collection"
RufusSafer: "Nani?!!" He spins around, wonderign where that voice came from.
EeoRaptor: Nowhere... it seemed...
RufusSafer: His breathing increases. "Who.. who are you?"
EeoRaptor: "A collector... it seems you've escaped your habitat... luckily you didnt fall into another"
RufusSafer: "Another? What do you mean?"
EeoRaptor: "You wouldnt have liked falling into one of the other habitats... say one with a chlorine atmosphere.."
RufusSafer: "What? Why are you kidnapping people?"
EeoRaptor: "Kidnapping? No... collecting"
RufusSafer: "This is mandess! You are taking people from their homes! away from the ones they love! WHY???"
EeoRaptor: "I didnt expect humans to be as intelligent as they've turned out to be..."
RufusSafer: "Why are you taking people??!"
EeoRaptor: "As I said... Im collecting them:
RufusSafer: "But.. why?? Why are you collecting t hem?"
EeoRaptor: "To take home..."
RufusSafer: "Home?"
RufusSafer: "Where is.. home?"
EeoRaptor: "Yes.. home for my collection.. "
RufusSafer: "Where are you?"
RufusSafer: Van spun around, trying to figure out the source.
EeoRaptor: "If I told you where I was you'd harm me...."
RufusSafer: "Let us go... me, my brother, my love, and our friends... I don't care about anything else."
EeoRaptor: "I cant.. It took me a long time to find interesting specimens..."
RufusSafer: "Damn you!!! My brother's wife will die without him.." Frowns and sighs.. muttering. "a year ago I wished her dead for what she did to my home... but I can't stand to see my brother cry..."
EeoRaptor: "If she will die then I'll just have to collect her too..."
RufusSafer: "I can't let you do this... we are free people..."
EeoRaptor: "You are free here.. you have a habitat that suits your needs..."
RufusSafer: "No, this is not freedom.. we did not choose to go with you.."
EeoRaptor: "But you still must..."
RufusSafer: "WHY??!!!"
EeoRaptor: "Because i wish it... "
RufusSafer: "not good enough.." Van's eyes narrowed.
EeoRaptor: "You have no choice in that matter"
RufusSafer: That's when something started to hit into the hull...
EeoRaptor: A muffled squeak comes from above and to the right of Van's head.... "What now..."
RufusSafer: Van growls, hearing that and wishes he had his sword as he heads for the noise.. explosion sounds coming from outside the hull
EeoRaptor: Someone wanted in... badly
RufusSafer: Van suddenly relized who it was.. who would be reclease enough to fire at such an object. "Dilandau...."
EeoRaptor: Back in the control room screens are up... showing the red mech barraging the hulll
RufusSafer: "Yep... I thought so..."
RufusSafer: Dilandau's melef was firing repeatedly into the hull, laughinh insanely and demanding the return of Folken.
EeoRaptor: ".... this isnt worth the trouble"
RufusSafer: "Then let us go.." Van demanded.
EeoRaptor: "I dont want to... it took so long... "
RufusSafer: "If you don't she's gonna continue what she's doing till this ship or what ever it is gets a nice hole in it..."
EeoRaptor: "Not possible... its just an annoyance.. one I can deal with.. if I must"
RufusSafer: "Grrrr......" He closed his eyes and held the pendant, remembering what hitomi taught him...
EeoRaptor: He could see something with that method... but it was quite tiny
RufusSafer: Raises an eyebrow and opens his eyes, heading in the direction the pendant was pointing
EeoRaptor: The thing ... wasnt paying attention to him whatever it was.. it was too busy being frustrated about the melef attacking its ship
RufusSafer: Van reached out his hand to grab the small tiny thing he saw in his minds eye.
EeoRaptor: It squaked... warm and furry in his hand
RufusSafer: "Got ya!"
EeoRaptor: "leggo!"
RufusSafer: "What the hell are you??!!"
EeoRaptor: tiny little teeth pricked at his figner
RufusSafer: "Itai!!!" He lets go.
EeoRaptor: He hears it skuttle away... disappearing somewhere in the vast control room
RufusSafer: "What the hell was that thing??"
EeoRaptor: "Im not a thing" It retorts.. its mindvoice sounding smaller
RufusSafer: "Then WHAT ARE YOU?"
EeoRaptor: "a sentient being... who has been nearly squashed by a big oaf of a barely out of the stone age monster!"
RufusSafer: "WHAT DID YOU CALL ME!!??" Van went looking for it
EeoRaptor: "I should waste your world.. all you things do is hurt and fight!"
RufusSafer: "Leave us alone damn you!"
RufusSafer: Dilandau was onto a second wave of attacks.
EeoRaptor: "I just thought you were interesting... so much variety in a single species.... but youre evil!"
RufusSafer: "Evil? We do not kidnap people for a zoo..."
EeoRaptor: "Zoo? no a collection.. think of it as saving a small part of your species from itself.."
RufusSafer: "I do not agree!"
EeoRaptor: "You dont have to agree..... theres no arguing with simple minds"
RufusSafer: "Where is my sword?"
EeoRaptor: "Someplace where you cant get it.. I dont fancy being skewered"
RufusSafer: "Grrr.. damn you."
EeoRaptor: Kenshin moves up behind Van "Who are you talking to?"
RufusSafer: "To the master of this place.."
EeoRaptor: "You found them?"
RufusSafer: "yes.. some strange little creature..."
EeoRaptor: "some strange little creature... why didnt you kill it?"
RufusSafer: "It took my sword!"
RufusSafer: another attack winds up rocking h te control center.
EeoRaptor: "And you say your species isnt violent... "
RufusSafer: "She just wants my brother back!" Van shouted.
EeoRaptor: "Then why doesnt she just come land and come in like a civilized being?"
RufusSafer: "It's not her fault that all she wants to do is fight... she gets that way when angered."
EeoRaptor: "how cute.. sounds like a defective chromasome"
RufusSafer: "Be glad Allen and Folken arn't here to hear that."
RufusSafer: Van turned to look at Kenshin.
EeoRaptor: "Find it... " Kenshin says flatly... "I want the honors though"
RufusSafer: "Honors?" Van blinked then closed his eyes, holding the pendant to find the creature.
EeoRaptor: It was cowering... at the back of the control room... wedged under a panel
RufusSafer: the pendant points right at it
RufusSafer: "There..." He points as well
EeoRaptor: "I cant see anything.. its too dark.. " kenshin mutters "Its not making any noise either"
RufusSafer: Van walks up to where it is. "It’s hiding under there."
EeoRaptor: Kenshin reaches under and feels for it.... coming across something furry and grabbing for it
RufusSafer: Van nods. "Yea! you got it!"
EeoRaptor: Kenshin lifts up the squealing thing... he's got it by one of its legs so it cant reach up and bite him "Here.. lets find some light... I want to see what we've got"
RufusSafer: Van nodded and managed to get a light sorce going.
EeoRaptor: What kenshin was holding was strange to say the least.. it looked like a cross between a cat and a weasel.. and had what appeared to be a third eye and a gem in the center of its forhead... its whole head was framed by Huge ears... it looked quite annoyed at its predicament too
RufusSafer: Van blinked. "Oh, so that's what that strange thing is..."
RufusSafer: Van started to laugh.
EeoRaptor: "put me down... it hurts..." The little creature complains.. its fur is bluish.. and has an ever so slightly lighter blue striped pattern on it
RufusSafer: "What shall we do with it?"
EeoRaptor: "Kill it of course... it took Sano from me..." Kenshin says
RufusSafer: "Kill? I thought you had a vow never to kill again?"
EeoRaptor: "Im breaking that Vow... this thing took Sano from me...' Kenshin growls... shaking it roughgly
RufusSafer: "You got your sword then?"
EeoRaptor: Kenshin nods "Want to hold it... so I can slice it.. I promise I wont miss"
RufusSafer: Van nodded and grabbed hold of the being,.
EeoRaptor: "Please reconsider... you wont get out if you kill me!" the little creature yelped.
RufusSafer: "So what? You won't let us out either way."
EeoRaptor: "... its for your own good... " It complains... wriggling as Kenshin draws his sword and readies himself
RufusSafer: Just as Kenshin was about to Strike Sanosuke managed to find his way in there and dropped his hand on Kenshin's shoulder, calling his name.
EeoRaptor: Kenshin freezes.... almost cleaving the little thing in two "S.. sano..."
RufusSafer: "Kenshin..." Sano brings his arms around him from behind.
EeoRaptor: "I thought.."
RufusSafer: "Thought.. I died? Gods Kenshin.. I was so worried you'd so somethign stupid..."
EeoRaptor: Kenshin lets his sword clatter to the ground
RufusSafer: Sano turned him around to kiss him
EeoRaptor: Kenshin whimpers and cuddles against him... "Sano... I almost..."
RufusSafer: "I know love... I know... not the first time... you won't go back to that.. I won't let it happen..."
EeoRaptor: The little creature appears to have fainted
RufusSafer: Van still holds him.. then another explosion rocks the place... and the defense system finnaly kicks in... folken, Allen, and the others wound up up top to see the red melef fighting with things firing at it
EeoRaptor: "Whats going on" Allen says.. blinking
RufusSafer: "What is that thing?" Yahiko asked.
EeoRaptor: "Thats my sister's Guymelef..."
RufusSafer: "Isn't she.. pregnant?"
EeoRaptor: "Yes.. damnit... what is she thinking... she's going to get killed...
RufusSafer: Folken could see that too... the fire was hitting at the edges of the Melef cockpit.
EeoRaptor: "Have to get out of here now..."
RufusSafer: Yahiko and Kauro ran back into the tunnel.
EeoRaptor: Folken sighs... he's very nervous
RufusSafer: She was fighting.. and the attacks were cutting close to her
EeoRaptor: And he couldnt get out to help her
RufusSafer: Maybe if he flew up...
EeoRaptor: Folken tries out of desperation
RufusSafer: She was standing where the hull should be.. having made a hole with her melf.. fighting attacks right and left
EeoRaptor: Folken flutters up.. and finds himself beside her
RufusSafer: She was still inside... but her coulsd see she was bleeding ... red eyes ones of rage
EeoRaptor: "Dilendau!!"
RufusSafer: He needed to get her out of there
EeoRaptor: He climbs up onto the melef... and tries to open the hatch release
RufusSafer: Another shot.. right next to him ionto the release hatch.. and she was tossed out...
EeoRaptor: He scoops her up and drops back into the ship... afraid that the fighters will attack if he tries to fly off with her
RufusSafer: She was out cold.. blood and sweat dripping from her face
EeoRaptor: He cradles her... worry etched into his face... he strips off his shirt to bandage the wounds she has
RufusSafer: Blood dripped into her silvery-blonde hair
EeoRaptor: "Please be okay" he whispers... rocking slightly
RufusSafer: Van found his way up and spotted his brother there with Dil.
EeoRaptor: "Van...?"
RufusSafer: "Oh gods.. what happend?"
EeoRaptor: "I need medical supplies"
RufusSafer: "I.. I don't have any... Allen! Where's Allen??" Van looked around, not seeing him.
EeoRaptor: "I dont know.. " Folken says "He was just with me..."
RufusSafer: Van stiffed. "ALLEENENN!N!!!!!"
EeoRaptor: Allen heard his voice and called back... somewhere down the corridor
RufusSafer: Van ran down to where he was.
EeoRaptor: Allen hugs him "God I was worried..."
RufusSafer: Van plunged into his arms. "Celena.. Celena's hurt..."
EeoRaptor: "She's hurt.. where. is she??"
RufusSafer: "Up above..."
EeoRaptor: Allen nods "Yes... lets go... quickly.."
RufusSafer: Van lurred him up there
EeoRaptor: Allen rushes over to Folken... who is cradling his sister in his arms
RufusSafer: Blood... blood everywhere... the melef was messed up as well.
EeoRaptor: "Is... she ..?"
RufusSafer: "Folken?"
RufusSafer: Van asked.
RufusSafer: Dil was still breathing
EeoRaptor: "No.... she's.."
RufusSafer: "She's what?"
EeoRaptor: "Hurt... bad"
RufusSafer: Sano came up with Kenshin. "Will she be ok?
EeoRaptor: "I... hope"
RufusSafer: She was starting to come around, clutching Folken's hand in hers.
EeoRaptor: "we have to get out of here.."
RufusSafer: "Yeah." Van agreed. "I see an opening up there!" He pointed.
EeoRaptor: "Those flying sentries... "
RufusSafer: "I'll take care of them if I can get my sword.
EeoRaptor: "where is it?"
RufusSafer: "I.. I don't know.. down in the control room."
EeoRaptor: "Great.."
RufusSafer: "Damn it... wait! maybe we can do something about them from there!"
EeoRaptor: "Van what did you do with that thing?" Kenshin asks
RufusSafer: "what thing?"
EeoRaptor: "That little creature...?"
RufusSafer: "Oh yes.. um.. I dropped it."
EeoRaptor: Kenshin sighs "We could have pressed it for information"
RufusSafer: "Probably still out cold."
EeoRaptor: "well.. lets go play at the controls then... "
RufusSafer: "Good.. follow me." Van grabbed his arm and ran down.
EeoRaptor: Allen erks as he's drug along
RufusSafer: Van waited till he got down there
RufusSafer: "Allen... here we are."
EeoRaptor: Allen nods "So many.. screens... its not very bright in here is it?"
RufusSafer: "ya.. we need to figure them out." He looked around for the creature.
EeoRaptor: "No need to ... figure it all out... structural integrity is down... the ship's falling apart.. we're going down the hard way...." the lil creature said.
RufusSafer: "What??"
RufusSafer: "Then let us all out of here??"
EeoRaptor: "follow the lights to the escape pods... I have to pack up my pocket dimensions so the other beings on this ship do not die..."
EeoRaptor: A series of dull orange lights creep on along a hallway to the side
RufusSafer: "Good... let's go...." Van ran up to tell Folken and the others the same.
EeoRaptor: Allen follows along... and relays the message with Van
RufusSafer: Dil has yet to wake
EeoRaptor: "quickly then.... I need to get her out of here so I can treat her.." Folken says
RufusSafer: Van nodded and ran back down.. leaving Allen to helo Folken.
EeoRaptor: Allen helps Folken carry his sister along the rows of dim orange lights
RufusSafer: Van got into the pod.. elsewhere Tasuki and Zel who'd woken and Yahiko and Kauro got to their own podd.
EeoRaptor: Once inside... the pod activates and carries them safely down to the ground... a good distance from the ship
RufusSafer: Van curled onto Allen's lap.. Sano hugging Kenshin
EeoRaptor: Everyone was content.. and safe now...
RufusSafer: Dil was starting to wake up again, clutching Folken's good hand tightly
EeoRaptor: "How do you feel love?" Folken asks softly
RufusSafer: "Folken-sama..." She whispers, her eyes opening a little.
EeoRaptor: "Stay with me darling... alright?"
RufusSafer: "I-I've,.,, found.. you..."
EeoRaptor: "yes.... we're safe...."
RufusSafer: "I'm... bleeding?"
EeoRaptor: "Yes... shh"
RufusSafer: "Hurts.... "
EeoRaptor: "i know.... you'll be better soon..."
RufusSafer: "The.. baby?" She sounded worried
EeoRaptor: "It'll all be alright..... you dont feel any pushing do you?"
RufusSafer: "Is it... alright?"
EeoRaptor: folken nods... lovingly smoothing his hand over her abdomen
RufusSafer: She closed her eyes again.
RufusSafer: Van looked away, not wanting to look at her.
EeoRaptor: "As soon as we get out of the pod we must find someplace for her to lie down"
RufusSafer: Van sighed and nodded. "Alright.. brother..."
EeoRaptor: "You'll need to watch.... although it seems you'll never father a child... but just in case..."
RufusSafer: "Watch what?" Van looked at him allarmed.
EeoRaptor: "She's in shock... its going to be born premature"
RufusSafer: "WHAT??!!!" Van nearly jumped, sitting on Allen's lap.
EeoRaptor: "We need a bed... and hot water... and some strong cord"
RufusSafer: Van looked as if he was about to pass out.
EeoRaptor: Allen looks worried too
RufusSafer: Sano got up. "I'll help get her out of here."
EeoRaptor: "Come.. we have no time to waste.. " Folken says as the pod touches down lightly
RufusSafer: Sano helped folken carry her out.. thankfully they were near water.
EeoRaptor: "Check the pod... there must be some sort of blankets or supplies or .. something inside"
RufusSafer: Van picked up the blankets. "Here..."
EeoRaptor: folken nods and proceeds to make a bed out of a few springy branches and the blankets.. seeing as they've landed in the middle of no where
RufusSafer: "Folken-sama..." Dilandau grunted, one hand moving down to her belly.
EeoRaptor: "Shh.. it is going to hurt.. there is little I can do for that" Folken says
RufusSafer: "Hurts... already,...." She whispered, teeth clenching.. sweat still pouring.
EeoRaptor: Folken takes the strange medical kit he found in the pod and picks through it... recognizing nothing
RufusSafer: Van hung onto Allen's arm. "Your sister..."
EeoRaptor: "I know... but what can I do for her?"
RufusSafer: "I don't know Allen-sama...."
EeoRaptor: Allen goes over and sits by his sister.. wondering what he can do to comfort her
RufusSafer: She reached her hand up for him,]
EeoRaptor: Allen took her hand... smiling softly
EeoRaptor: Folken sighs "I need hot water... someone start a fire... "
RufusSafer: "Allen..." Her eyes looked up at her.
RufusSafer: Sano drug Kenshin off to start a fire.
EeoRaptor: "You'll be okay... Folken knows what he's doing.. Im sure... "
RufusSafer: "I.. I know..."
EeoRaptor: Folken drapes a blanket over her legs "I need to take off your pants dear... "
RufusSafer: Dil nodded, needing to get her boots off.
EeoRaptor: Folken gently take her boots and pants off... his hands, even his mechanical one moving with ease

RufusSafer: She starts to pant. "F-folken-sama...."
EeoRaptor: "You'll have to take the pain love... I cant help on that.." He says.. smoothing her hair back "Just breathe deep...... things will be fine"
RufusSafer: Tears filled her eyes, spreading her legs appart.. feeling the pain as she breathed.
EeoRaptor: Folken cuts a wide strip of cloth from her pants... and ties it into a special knot that allows the noose to tighten.. but not loosen or go too tight
RufusSafer: "Wha.. what is that?" She asked.
EeoRaptor: "to keep the wings from cutting you..."
RufusSafer: She shivered, remembering that those wings could kill her
EeoRaptor: "Is the hot water ready?" folken calls
RufusSafer: "Almost!" Sano yelled.
RufusSafer: Dil grunted again.. clearly having contractions
EeoRaptor: Folken rubs her belly gently... trying to soothe her "Dont push just yet... okay?"
RufusSafer: "It's... hurting... I want..."
EeoRaptor: "Shh.. "Folken says... trying to calm her
RufusSafer: "I wanna.. push..."
EeoRaptor: "just wait... if you push.. you'll hurt yourself"
RufusSafer: "Please... hurry... I need... ARUUU!"
EeoRaptor: "I need that water... hot or not.. now!" Folken shouts
RufusSafer: Sano rushed it over with Kenshin
RufusSafer: "here."
EeoRaptor: "One of you on either side of her... if she struggles hold her down.. this will probably hurt more than anything" Folken says... hissing as he puts his good arm and the noose into the scalding water
RufusSafer: Sano takes her left side.
RufusSafer: Dil panted as she heard him say that.
EeoRaptor: Kenshin sits on the right.. and gets ready
"Hold your breath Dil" Folken warns... rubbing his hand slowly at her entrance to stretch her
RufusSafer: She took a deap breath and her body quaked, she instatly started to push her arms back/
EeoRaptor: Kenshin gently takes hold of her in case she starts to struggle
Folken closes his eyes... and presses his hand and the open noose into her... hoping she's dilated enough so it wont her her too badly
RufusSafer: She lets out a scream.. it is hurting.. and she is strugling.. but it needs to be done.
EeoRaptor: Kenshin grits his teeth... she's damned strong
Folken frowns... feeling his way into her... to where the child is waiting... pushing at the entrance to her cervix He slowly starts to work at getting the loop around the child... fumbling a little as he doesnt have his right hand to use
RufusSafer: He might need another's help.. and his love was screaming in pain, trying to thrash about.
EeoRaptor: He could do it... she would just have to hold tight... he almost had the loop to where it needed to be... just a little more...
RufusSafer: "AHH!!!!!!!!!!!!" She screamed, nearly breaking Allen's hand
EeoRaptor: Allen yelps in pain.. "Aiii!!"
Folken grunts... pulling the noose tight and slipping his arm out
RufusSafer: She went back to panting after his arm was out, strugling to push.
EeoRaptor: "Push love" folken says... washing his hands then taking her heels and pushing her legs foreward a little so she has something to bear down against
RufusSafer: She kept hold of allen's hand.. this time with both of hers... tears down her cheeks from the pain she was enduring...
EeoRaptor: "Im sorry for putting you through this" Folken whispers...
RufusSafer: She said nothing, panting and grunting hard as the child was being pushed out.
EeoRaptor: Folken helps her as much as she can... when the head is out he pulls gently as he was taught... holding it right so the child wont fall
RufusSafer: "ARG!!!" Dil screamed, her body wanting to relax.. but she had to push one more tiem.
EeoRaptor: "Thats it love... " Folken says... tugging along with her push to bring the baby the rest of the way outt
RufusSafer: She screamed once more, the colapsed back as the baby was out.
EeoRaptor: Folken holds the baby upside down and hits it lightly to get the fluid out of its lungs and nose... producing a loud squall.... he then cleans it off a little and wraps it up snugly in a blanket
RufusSafer: Dil's eyes look up at her brother.. panting softly in her chest.
EeoRaptor: Allen smiles at her "You did good sis..."
RufusSafer: "My heart feels like it's gonna explode.." She whispered slowly.
EeoRaptor: "Just relax" Folken says "You had it hard.. youre so small.. " He moves up to her side and rests the child on her chest for her to look at " A little girl.."
RufusSafer: "A girl?" Her eyes went to the baby and then back to folken, trying to relax her breathing.
EeoRaptor: "Yes.. hold her while I clean you up love..." He says.. smiling.. one of the few times he's looked exceptionally happy
RufusSafer: Dil smiles and did so.
RufusSafer: "Allen... your.. neice.."
EeoRaptor: Folken moves down to clean up the afterbirth... and wash her off...
Allen looks at the tiny little thing in his sister's arms "Beautiful.. what are you going to name her?"
RufusSafer: "I.. i don't know... Folken-sama, any ideas?"
EeoRaptor: "I havent.. thought much about it..." folken says... moving back up to her side to kiss her forhead
RufusSafer: "I need to rest..." she sighed. "I feel so tired."
EeoRaptor: "Sleep then... you worked so hard at this.." Folken says... stroking fingers gently through her hair
RufusSafer: Dil smiled up at him and fell asleep with her daughter in her arms.
EeoRaptor: "Need to think of a name... " Folken says.. looking at them adoringly
RufusSafer: The baby smiled up at him
RufusSafer: Van finnaly looked over. "Wow... brother..."
EeoRaptor: Folken hugs Van "Im so happy... I thought... she was going to...."
RufusSafer: "Going to die?"
EeoRaptor: Folken nods "I need a name for the baby... "
RufusSafer: "Hmmm.... What about our mother's name?"
RufusSafer: Van looks thoughful. "She.. um... looks like her mother..."
EeoRaptor: "Thats good... " Folken says with a small chuckle "I know you dont like Dil.. but.. please for my sake..."
RufusSafer: "We've tried to kill eachother so many times..." He sighed. "I.. i will brother, I promise."
EeoRaptor: "Our lives have taken a change... things are better now... "
RufusSafer: "I know... for both you and Allen's sakes I will keep the peace..."
EeoRaptor: "Thank you... I suppose I wont be seeing any nieces or nephews from you huh? You and Allen make a cute couple"
RufusSafer: "allen has at least one kid... does that count? You met him once."
EeoRaptor: "Chid.. yes... well its not yours... It doesnt matter though... its best our bloodline doesnt go too far...'
RufusSafer: "It will go on through you."
EeoRaptor: Folken nods
RufusSafer: Van smiled. "How about we name her peace?"
EeoRaptor: "Harmony?"
RufusSafer: "Yes.. a good name for a girl. And jsut what we all need."
EeoRaptor: "lets let her mother make the final decision"
RufusSafer: Dil was smiling in her sleep somewhat, breathing softly.
RufusSafer: Van puts his arms around Allen. "Let's go home."
EeoRaptor: "Yes... home cant be far..."
RufusSafer: "Shall we take them with us?"
EeoRaptor: "it would only be fair"
RufusSafer: "Yah.."
RufusSafer: By the time they got home she had awoken.
EeoRaptor: "What do you think about the Name Harmony" Folken asks.. helping Dil clean up and getting her into bed... grateful that Allen gave them a room for a time
RufusSafer: "Harmony? It has a nice.. ring to it.. Folken-sama."
EeoRaptor: "we'll name her that then...' Folken says stroking a finger along her tiny cheek
RufusSafer: "I love you."
EeoRaptor: "I love you too" folken whispers... kissing her softly on the forhead
