So Lonely -Ryuzaki & Phantom-

[aridia]

Aridia was moving slowly, the enchantress that she was. Her long brown hair floated with the breeze, the Dryads playing with it. She let loose a gale of laughter, some swore that the heavenly chorus were singing when she laughed.

What am I to do with you playful things? She teased them, her pristine eyes sparkling with mischief. She heard their light laughter in the wind, it was sad that so few could see them.

[Chibi Ryuzaki]

~The cloaked figure had been walking for days. It had bee so long since he had seen another person. He had finished the last of his food the yesterday. He heard laughter~ "What was that?" ~He changed the direction he had been walking, and quickened his pace. Not the smartest idea when one wants to conserve energy. He didn't know what that pristine sound was but he had to find the source. He came to a clearing.~ "I'm out? I've been lost there for day..". ~ He saw her, she was gorgeous.~ "It was all because of you I than..." ~He past out due to exhaustion.~

[aridia]

Aridia turned to look at the side of the maze, where she saw a man come out. She'd heard his voice, and apparantly because he'd heard hers, he was free. She raced to him, as she saw him fall to the floor. She snapped at the Dryads to quit, for they insisted on playing with her raven coloured hair.

She knelt beside his body, bowing her head over his chest to make sure that he lived. Next she checked that he was breathing, content that he was she closed her eyes. Imagining the two of them in her mind, she placed her hand on his, and visualized some of her energy flowing into him, so as to revive him.

[Chibi Ryuzaki]

~He was having his usual nightmare. It was a memory from his past. It was about the night Amadeus was released and his best friend betrayed him, but this time it was different, there was a bright light, and then he saw her, a beautiful woman, had the angelic voice he heard belonged to this woman? He walked into the light and awoke with a start.~ "I thank you. You saved me from yet another troublsome dream. I am name is Ryuzaki, what is yours?"

[aridia]

She laughed softly, the sound like bells sounding. She smiled at him, happy that she was getting better at healing. I am Aridia LaRosa. It is nice to meet you, Ryuzaki. Before you passed out, you mentioned being lost for a day or so. Are you okay now? I know the way out, if you need it. She said, simply happy that the boy was alright.

[Chibi Ryuzaki]

~He then got up and dusted him self off.~ "Perhaps later Ms. Aridia. I came her to see the fountian, and that is what I intend to do."~He said with a warm smile. He then wabbled his way over to the bench near the fountian, and had a seat.~ "This place truely is a peacefull one isn't it?"

[aridia]

Aridia smiled, could she possibly have found a kindred spirit in this world of worlds? She doubted it, for it didn't seem likely that someone would understand what ran through her head, what went on, the internall fight that she fought every d.amned day.Yes, it truly is. She said, a wistful smile placed on her beautiful features.

[Chibi Ryuzaki]

~He closed his eyes and leaned his head back.~ "Here one can almost forget about all the pain in the world, and even ones own problems." ~He then got up and walked over to the water to see his reflection, only it was different. He saw himself, but his silver hair had turned ice blue, and his firery red eyes were now icy blue as well, and his warm facial features were now filled with hatred.~ "Well Hello Amadeus, I never expected to see you here. Does this mean you are taking over?" ~The face in to water just looked at him.~

[aridia]

Upon hearing him talking to his reflection, she moved closer. She saw what ailed him. Placing a soft, delicate hand of his shoulder, Are you ok? She asked. She bit her lip, worried about the boy she had saved, but scared of what he might become if this...this Thing was going to take over.

[Chibi Ryuzaki]

~He laughed, and then took a deap breath and blew it at the water, the water parted deaply and the returned to him his normal reflection.~ "I'll be fine." ~He then put his hand on top of hers.~ "I thank you for your warmth and kindness. I believe that he is still buried deap in my mind. It could just be a mystic property of the fountian." ~He thenreached into the water and pulled up a shpere of it, he manipulated the air around it to kep it's shape and the froze it, and then droped it into the water.~

[aridia]

I could take a peek. Maybe I could get rid of him. She offered, shrugging her shoulders and arching a single eyebrow. She hated knowing that someone would be caused pain, and loved fixing it. Ain't she just the most innocent thing? Wait til she's angry...

[Chibi Ryuzaki]

~He let go of her hand.~ "No, he was created from my hatred. He is half of what I am, to get rid of him, you would kill half of me. No, I thank you for your offer, but if he ever were to surface, please get away as fast as you can." ~Ryu stood up and walked to the other side of the fountian.~ "But what brings you here." ~He said looking into her eyes.~

[aridia]

She cocked her head to the side. It's one of the only places I can be with my adoptive kin. But I want you to know, if he does come, I won't be leaving. I don't leave when others need help. She told him, understanding and compassion in her eyes.

[Chibi Ryuzaki]

~He looked back at her and gave her a warm smile.~ "I thank you, for you warmth and kindness," ~He then walked over to her and gave her a hug. He then turned around and sat at te edge of the fountain, and played with the water, freezing some of it and then meting it, his thoughts turned inward. He started to hum his favorite tune. Winnie the Pooh.~
