An overdue return
(Near the mystical mountain...)
Derek: *still in his devilish form, walks over to the mountain without really knowing why*
Derek: *starts walking up* ..what am i doing here?
Derek: where's this place?..
Derek: why do i feel attracted to the top of this mountain?..
Derek: *grabs his head and screams*
Derek: *falls down to his knees still holding his head* ..who am i?..
Derek: *looks at his hands then at the parts of his body he can see* ..what am i?..
Derek: ...
Derek: *raises his head and looks at the top of the mountain* ..somehow i feel like i'll find the answers to my questions up there
Derek: *stands up and keeps on walking over to the top* ..
(Rain starts to pour hard)
Derek: *stops walking and looks up at the sky as rain splashes in his face* ...
Derek: *closes his eyes and stays there for a moment, not moving and just letting the rain fall onto his face*...
Derek: *wipes the water off his face and mechanically starts walking up the mountain again* what's my reason to live?..
Derek: ..why cant i remember who i am?..
Derek: *looks at his hands again* ..or am i really.. someone?..
Derek: ..more like.. "something"
Derek: argghh *screams in rage then clenches his fist and punches a rock hard breaking it into pieces*
Derek: ..my brain's totally screwed.. i dun even remember what i did.. yesterday..
Derek: not even what i did this morn.. *grabs his head again still walking up to the top*
Derek: *reaches the entrance of the cave after a while*
Derek: *suddenly sees the image of a man lying down in the snow with his guts out* ..what the?..
Derek: *squints his eyes shut then reopens them and looks at the place the man was, but there's nothing but the plain ground, with no man nor snow*
Derek: ....
Derek: *looks at the large hole in front of himself*
Derek: ..this cave
Derek: *comes in and starts walking over to the "egg room"* ..
Derek: *hears the sound of something walking closer to him, then quickly turns round facing a huge red dragon*
Blind Seer: o_o
Derek: *stares then glares at the dragon* you're not scaring me...what do you want?
Blind Seer: *snarls then throws flames at him*
Derek: gah! *bends over and crosses his arms in front of his face trying to protect himself from the fire*
Derek: *realizes he didn't feel any sensation of burning when the flames touched his skin* ..what the..
Derek: *looks up at the dragon*..
Blind Seer: o.O *opens up his mouth and throws more flames at Derek*
Derek: *dun budge but just closes his eyes as the flames touch his body again*
Blind Seer: o_o'
Derek: *opens his eyes and looks again at Blind Seer* ..pointless
Derek: even tho i sorta wished u could burn me to death
Blind Seer: *tilts his head on the side* O.o
Derek: what!? -_-
Derek: you really would wanna live if you were stuck in a body like this?
Blind Seer: o_o
Derek: oh great, im talking with a dragon now -.-
Blind Seer: o_o
Derek: god damnit! will you stop staring at me like that!? ><
Blind Seer: ...
Derek: -.-
Derek: now go away
Blind Seer: *walks closer to him and wraps his tail around him tightly, then lifts him up close to his face* o_o
Derek: >< grrr *struggles and tries to get free from his grip*
Blind Seer: *rubs his head on him*
Derek: o_O huh?.. let go of me! ><
Derek: *struggles some more then stops and squints his eyes*
Blind Seer: n.n
Derek: ..what?
Derek: *blinks some* ..do i.. know you?..
Blind Seer: n.n *puts him back to the ground, then stares at a pile of logs near them and shakes his tail*
Derek: o_O *looks at the logs also* what?
Blind Seer: n.n' *shakes his tail some more*
Derek: the hell? o_O you're a dragon or a dog?
Blind Seer: *whines some* u.u
Derek: argghh *grabs his head as he's having the vision of a man putting some logs together and a dragon throwing flames at it*
Derek: ..what do you want?
Derek: u want.. *walks over to the logs and put some wood together, then steps back and looks at Blind Seer* o_O..
Blind Seer: *throws flames at the wood and shakes his tail some more* n.n'
Derek: ...buddy
Blind Seer: n.n'
Derek: arrggh...
Blind Seer: o_o;;
Derek: *feels a slight sensation of burning as he's taking his normal form* ..
Derek: *looks at his hands* ..thank god.. x_x
Derek: *looks up at the dragon* Blind Seer...
Blind Seer: n.n *rubs his head against him again then licks his face*
Derek: hey! @_@
Blind Seer: *pokes him gently with his head* n.n;
Derek: *smiles slightly and strokes his head* ..thanks buddy
Derek: cuz of you, im back to my ..old self
Derek: i was trapped in that.. scary body
Blind Seer: o_o'
Derek: i had forgotten about...everything
Derek: even about who i was
Derek: but you
Derek: you recognized me
Derek: in spite of that horrible appearance i had
Derek: well uh.. if u dun count the 2 times u launched flames at me o.O
Blind Seer: u.u;;
Derek: naw, its ok
Derek: i dun get why it didn't hurt me tho x_x
Derek: oh well..
Derek: *sits by the fire* ..Elation..
Derek: ..damn
Derek: *rubs his eyes* ..i remember everything now
(Somewhere, not too far from Kain's castle...)
Celest: at least i got to warn them of the danger
Celest: one week has passed since then
Celest: maybe its already too late
Celest: i wonder what happened with Shylah and that.. horrible man
Celest: knowing Shylah, she surely got rid of him
Celest: *sighs* ..the amulet
Celest: deprived of my powers..
Celest: i cant even teleport to the castle
Celest: and i cant remember my way there..
Celest: ..wait
Celest: this place.. seems familiar
Celest: yes.. this village
Celest: the castle must be close
Celest: *looks down at all the people lying dead on the ground* ..ugh
Celest: damn you.. you who caused this chaos.. whoever you are
Celest: *keeps on walking and finally reaches the castle after a certain time*
Celest: *hesitates, then knocks lightly*..
Elation: ..*walks over to the door and opens it seeing Celest* ..oh..my god x_X... you're..you're alive
Celest: ...ya *looks over her shoulder trying to see Kael* ..sorry for the seal ..uh.. *notices her eyes are all red as if she's just cried* ..do i come at a wrong moment?
Elation: ..um.. *looks down* ..no..no why?
Celest: ...may i come in then?
Elation: ..*notices all the scrapes, red marks and bruises on Celest* ..ya..u can.. and um..what happened to u? x_x
Kain: *walks over to the door* baby.. i told you not to open.. it could have been Zol.. oh Celest.. hi
Celest: ..hi
Kain: *also notices all her wounds* o_O.. damn *takes her hand and pulls her inside, then shuts and locks the door* u sure had a hard time
Elation: ...uh..ya really..what happened all that time..u were gone?
Celest: ..long story *looks around* ..where's Kael?
Elation: ...um..x_x.. he's upstairs..
Celest: ..mind if i go upstairs to see him?
Kain: uh.. *looks at Elation* ..thats fine with me
Elation: ...*looks back*
Elation: i ..guess
Celest: ..um.. okay so uh.. what room is he in?
Elation: if u go upstairs...3 doors down..of the one u look at when u reach the top of the stairs
Celest: ..um.. ok i guess i'll find it *starts walking over to the stairs then turns round* oh and where's Ken?
Celest: upstairs too, i guess *starts walking up*
Kain: uh.. X_x.. *looks at El and says nothing*
Elation: ...uh.. *looks at him* ..dun u think ..we shud've told her?.. x_X
Kain: ..i guess we can let Kael tell her
Elation: yeah..
Kael: *looks thru the windows, then sits back down onto his bed and reaches his hand to the drawer and opens it up* ...
Kael: *grabs a lil bag from there, then traces 2 tracks with the white dust and sniffs them up then puts the bag back in the drawer and leans his back on the wall, then closes his eyes*
Celest: *arrives in front of the door and looks at it not doing anything else* ...
Kael: *hears there's someone at the door, but says nothing and stays there with his eyes closed*
Celest: ...*nervously moves her hand to the door, then knocks lightly*
Kael: *sighs loudly still having his eyes closed* -_- WHAT?
Celest: ...*cant say anything and stays there thinking: "sure coming at a wrong moment"* x_x..
Celest: ..*sighs and walks back downstairs*..
Kael: -.- will they f*cking leave me alone!
Elation: *sees her* ...um..didn't ...you go up to Kael's room?
Celest: ..i did
Kain: uh.. he didn't wanna see you?
Celest: ..actually he doesn't know im here
Elation: what happened?
Celest: ..i knocked and he shouted at me.. so um.. x_x.. i guess i came back here
Elation: ..well..x_x..what u dont know....is that..well.. *sighs* Ken died.. a little while ago
Elation: ..and he's really upset
Celest: ..what?
Kain: ...*re-thinks about Elena* ...
Celest: ..what exactly happened here while i was gone?
Elation: ..x_x.. a bunch of stuff.....
Celest: ..ya.. i've been gone for a long period x_x
Elation: ..i know...we all know that *looks at the ground thinking of Elena also*
Celest: ..what happened to Ken?..
Kain: ...*looks at El*
Elation: ..*looks back* ..x_x..uh..
Celest: ..i feel like im making you uncomfortable.. i should leave *walks over to the door*
Kain: no wait..
Elation: ..its really ok Celest... x_X..u can stay..
Celest: ..*stops*
Kain: ..sorry we're all disturbed by Ken's death and also.. *stops and restrains a sob* ..x_x.. well.. our daughter Elena.. *cant continue his sentence and looks away then squints his eyes trying to stop the tears from falling*
Celest: ..*seems confused* ..your daughter? ..i thought.. *looks at Elation* i thought you lost it x.x..
Elation: ...*looks at the ground* ..no..i didnt lose it...x_x
Kain: ...ya.. she didnt lose it but.. 2 weeks after she was born.. Elena was ..kidnapped by Zolsix X_x...
Kain: and we have big reasons to think.. he's killed her..
Elation: ..*closes her eyes as tears start falling down her face* ..i hate him..
Celest: ..oh my god.. im sorry.. really
Kain: *puts his arms around Elation and hugs her tightly, then kisses her forehead* i hate him so much too...
Celest: ..its probably my fault
Elation: ..why should u think that?..
Celest: ..if i could have held the seal on the castle.. i guess that man wouldn't have been able to come in
Kain: ..its not ur fault, really...
Celest: ..still.. im sorry..
Kain: well uh.. *changes the topic seeing its making them all be embarrassed* did you find your aunt?
Celest: yes.. i did find her
Elation: ..and?
Celest: ..well lets say she found me
Kain: o_O ?
Celest: she captured me and tortured me for months ..cuz she wanted me to tell her how to use the sacred amulet
Celest: then, one day, there was that man.. or should i say creature, who came to her castle
Celest: ...he set me free, apparently just to piss her off then they started a fight for the amulet...
Celest: being free from my chains, i took the opportunity to escape out of there without the amulet and now, i dont know what happened to none of them
Kain: then u came here?
Celest: no.. this was about one week ago
Celest: i didnt want to come back here because Shylah told that man that i was the only person knowing how to use the amulet and i feared he might stalk me...
Elation: ..since you thought that man was gonna follow u here ..then why are u even here now?..x_x he could like..come in any second if he followed u
Kain: *looks at her, surprised by her lack of tact* x_X;
Celest: ...uh.. ya i should go x_X
Elation: ...Celest..no ..x_x..im sorry ..its okay..
Celest: ...*starts crying and walks over to the door, hiding her face in her hands* i shouldn't even have come back here
Kain: Celest..wait *walks over to her and puts his hand on her shoulder*
Celest: ...
Elation: ..Celest really...im sorry x_X
Kain: *makes her turns round and looks at her* you know.. why dun you go take a shower, put on new clothes and then go lay down in one of the rooms upstairs?
Celest: ..ya i guess i should do that... *looks at herself*... but x_x.. i dun have any other clothes
Elation: *walks over to them* um..i guess u could borrow some of mine...
Celest: ..thank you..
Elation: well..lets go upstairs then..
Celest: ..ya *looks at Kain then starts walking over to the stairs*
Kain: *looks back quickly, then walks over to the living room and sits down staring at the wall and thinking about Elena*...
Elation: *follows Celest then walks upstairs to hers and Kain's room and goes in*
Elation: *opens a drawer and pulls out clothes for Celest to wear, then walks back over to her and hands them to her*
Celest: ..*takes them* thanks again *walks out of the room then over to the nearest bathroom*
Kael: *grabs his cocaine and sniffs some more of it, then stands up and walks to the window and sits on the edge* ...
Elation: ..*looks down the hall to Kael's room, then walks over to his door and knocks*
Kael: *doesnt answer and leans his head on the frame and sighs loudly*
Elation: *knocks harder* ..open up, Kael..its me..
Kael: ..mom go away -.- *takes a big breath then closes his eyes*
Elation: Kael damnit...open up!
Kael: WHAT do you want?
Elation: ..just open up....please Kael..
Kael: *hides his cocaine in his pocket, then unlocks the door with a spell* its better be short, im tired
Elation: ...*opens the door, walks in, then closes it behind her* ..hey.. *walks over to him*
Kael: *doesnt even look at her keeping his eyes closed* so what do you want?
Elation: ...well...Celest...
Elation: ..she's back
Kael: ....
Kael: ..after over 6 or maybe 7 months.. i stopped counting long ago
Elation: ...yeah..she was being held captive by her aunt...she finally escaped about a week ago..
Elation: ..and she came up here before...but ..u yelled at her so she didnt wanna bother and came back downstairs
Kael: ...whatever
Kael: is that all u had to say?
Elation: ..pretty much..ya..

Kael: bye! -.- *makes the door open with a spell*
Elation: ....*looks at him* i know its hard...i know it..
Kael: GO AWAY
Kael: YOU KNOW NOTHING ABOUT HOW I FEEL! ><!!
Kael: *punches the window hard breaking it* ><!! NOW LEAVE ME ALONE
Elation: ..x_x.. *quickly leaves the room then shuts the door behind her*

Kael: *pulls out the cocaine from his pocket and sniffs all whats remaining in the bag then throws himself loudly on his bed* screw you all...
