[Aeitius]

Stumbling upon the trail to creek, Aeitius decided to follow the course and perhaps sip a pint of a drink. Aeitius had been jogging as well. Perhaps it is a family thing, but obviously jogging is a healthy part of a good day.

He noticed two other beings nearby. He also noticed the scent of his brother. Instead of staying near the creek, he resolved to chase after his brother. Even though he and him aren't seeing eye-to-eye, he is still his brother and he wondered where he went. Following the scent he found a portal and, due to curiosity, decided to enter that said portal.

[Alieh]

Alieh smiled Hey, I'm Alieh But almost as soon as she finished, the shifter had to go again. Huh, that was a short appearance. But she was content, she was definetly getting to know more people.

Alieh shifted to human, relisng she had not yet done so. She set herself down at the side of the river and looked over at the siblings she'd been talking to before. So, what brings you to Elysia?

[Thryn]

"Well, I have to go. Talk to you sometime, all."

"Bye," Thryn said to the disappearing Attila. She was about to turn back when she sensed and noticed that another shifter was sprinting by, one that looked very similar to the person she had just met, but not quite a twin. Must be his brother. She gave him a smile as he went out of sight. Again she was reminded of all these siblings going by, but she decided not to dwell on it.

Feeling a small thirst in her throat, Thryn dipped a hand into the water. It was reasonably clean and not exactly crystal clear, but it wasn't dirty either. She sighed. Here she was out for a nice drink and suddenly all depressed. She attempted to appear at least peaceful again, since lifting the corners of her mouth at the moment would provide her with an evil, strange look.

[Aeitius]

" I can do this... " he said to himself as he ran a 10 meter line toward the portal. He thought that it would take him to the place where Attila was. He had not seen a portal before and had only heard about it. His first attempt was... to put it mildly...unsuccessful. Aeitius was surprised to see that the portal returned him to the place that where he started- the very spot that he entered it.

" Ok, the second time. I'll just enter the portal and poof I'm gone in 60 seconds. " yet again he tried to reassure himself. Trying for a second time, his attempt now is from a 20 meter line. He ran as fast as he can toward the portal ala stargate-style. Soon, he was travelling to another dimesion.

[Kaida]

Kaida wandered into the grove for the second time. She hadn't explored much, and still wasn't. The entire situatiom eariler at the MPD and the vet, just left a bad taste in her mouth. She had to admit though, visiting the healer was a better experiance than she thought it would be, but she wouldn't be herself if she didnt dwell on the negative. The cut had been so minor, it hadn't even been worth going. She guess it was the fact that it bleed so much that must have made her feel it was deep enough. Still... she was glad he didn't charge her. The statment she had made with the pet store cost her. And it seemed it might not even had been worth it.

Shaking her head, she looked behind her at Niles following. She couldnt help but smile a tad. He was really cute. In a best friend sort of way. Truning her head back to face the path, she noticed it forked. The one to her right was more worn and looked heavily traveled. She soon picked up the sound and smells of water. Feeling a good splash in the face sounded nice, she pivited toward the right. Kaida called back behind her, Thanks for tagging along with me today. It was really nice of you. Especially after how we met.

[Niles]

Niles travvelled down behing Kaida through the grove in the direction of the creek he had just been at not too long ago.

Thanks for tagging along with me today. It was really nice of you. Especially after how we met.

He laughed a little, remembered how they had met. Although he really hadn't wanted to at the time, he was now so glad he had turned around and got back. What would have happened if I hadn't gone back? I would probably be on my own somewhere in New York and I'd have a new enemy. He simply said, No problem.

He could hear running water now, the creek was close.

[Kaida]

Kaida made her way down the path past the branches and overgrowth. She used her arms as a shield for her face. When she broke into the opening, she noticed the creek. She herself prefered the rivers and lakes, but creeks were nice too. This one was a considerable size, and looked fairly clean. Plucking a few twigs and leaves from her hair and shoulders, she made her way to the creekside. Kaida crouched down and pulled off her long gloves. They were a pain to dry when wet. After placing them on her thigh, she leaned over and cuped water in her hands, then splashed the water on her face. It felt good on this warm day. With the water dripping off her face, and the cool air hitting her, she felt her body temprature drop.

After quickly air drying her hands, and wiping the remainder of the water on her legs, she sliped her gloves back on and stood next to Niles. Kaida smirked, tempted to push him into the creek, but decided against that. It would be more fun if it was a river or something. And although they seemed alright, she didn't want to tick him off. She didn't quite knoe him well anough to see how he handled that. Besides... he was a feline shifter. He probably would freak out.

[Synnove]

Synnove was getting rather bored of the creek; he needed more excitement. Two 'shifters came down to the creek. The female began washing her face while the male just behind her. She seems familiar. Synnove nudged Usagi.

"Hey, is that your pal other there?"

[Niles]

Niles followed behind Kaida down to the creek. He looked downstream to see a crowd of people, pretty much the same people that had been there when he left. He spotted his sister and waved to her.

It occurred to him that Kaida hadn't met Alieh yet. Oh man, if they don't like each other it could be awkward. He considered putting off introducing them, not sure how his sister would react to Kaida, but he decided it was best to get it overwith quickly.

Using a mixture of his slight telepathic connection with her, and hand signals, he indicated he wanted Alieh to come over.

Just then Kaida came over beside him again, Kaida, this is someone you should meet.

[Alieh]

Alieh gently stroked her hands through the water, it felt so nice against her smooth skin. She watched a little group of tiny fish dart through the water. I didn't know you could get fish in creeks. She swiftly grabbed one with ultra quick reflexs. She didn't harm it though-she wasn't that sort of person-she simply cupped it in her hands in a mini-pool of water and looked closely at it for a few seconds.

She smiled a little at it, before laying it back down in the water for it to swim away again There you go, little guy... Just as she was marveling at how amazing life was she suddenly felt something. It was her brother's presence. Sure enough, she twisted to look behind her and spotted Niles approaching the creek with another shifter. This other shifter had white hair too, but wore it in a very diffrent style from her own.

Niles turned round and spotted her, he waved, and she waved back. The female shifter had gone down to the river for a minute. She saw her brother look over at her and then hesitate for a second. He then motioned towards Alieh and signalled with his brain he wanted her to come over.

She pulled herself up and came over to them, by the time she had reached him, the other shifter had returned. Alieh came just in time to hear Niles speak.

Kaida, this is someone you should meet.

Kaida....seems familiar She couldn't remember where from though, just that it rang a bell. She raised her eyebrows slightly, had Niles gone at got himself a girlfriend? She considered asking him with her mind, but on second thought, it wasn't any of her business.

[Aeitius]

His body called for him to go back to the sanctuary and get a breathe of fresh air. Strolling down the vegetation with both his hands swaying gracefully, he took time to look at a school of fish seemingly having a good time in their aquatic environment. He also saw another shifter there. That shifter snatched a fish from its family. He was surprised when the shifter layed it back down in the water for it to swim away. He followed that young fish at it swam back toward its family of other fishes.

[Kaida]

Kaida looked back up at Niles after toying with the idea of getting him wet. She was just about to tease him about it when he spoke to her.

Kaida, this is someone you should meet.

She peered toward the direction he was looking, and saw a female shifter making her way over. Kaida furrowed her brow as she tried to place where she'd seen her before. She looked very fimiliar. After sending Niles a quizical glance, she looked back toward the woman. She couldn't help but smile when she noticed her white hair. It was intresting seeing anyone else with it, and it made her wonder what her animal form was.

Kaida might have said "hi", as the woman approched them, but she didn't know her. And she wasn't one for pretending like she cared when she didn't. Although the fact that Niles knew her gave her a little credit at least. Surely he wouldnt make friends with someone who wasn't decent to get along with. Then again... he had made friends with her. The thought made her laugh inside.

[Niles]

Once Alieh was close enough Niles started to introduce them. Alieh, this is Kaida, she's a friend; Kaida, this is Alieh, she's my twin-sister. He held his breath, wondering how the two would get on. He knew that Kaida could be cutting and sarcastic to someone she didn't like, he had been there.

He also knew Alieh was the type whose feelings were hard to change, if she didn't like Kaida, it would be hard to change her mind. He looked for Kaida to Alieh, wondering how they would react.

[Kaida]

Alieh, this is Kaida, she's a friend; Kaida, this is Alieh, she's my twin-sister.

Kaida smiled ad Alieh. Although she didn't extend her arm for the traditional handshake, she gave a polite nod and said, Hi. Immediatly she saw the resemblences. Their facial features, the shape of their eyes, height. Everything beside the the color of thair hair eyes and complection. She thought that a little odd, but shrugged. She'd never met twins before, so she had no idea.

Crossing her arms over her chest out of habit, she looked Alieh up and down. Feline shifter too i suppose. Tiger, right? Mentally Kaida wondered why she was being frinds with feline shifters, but couldnt seem to get along with canince shifters. It was gatting a tad annoying.

[Alieh]

Alieh looked at her brother, wondering who Kaida was, she was going to ask him when he spoke first.

Alieh, this is Kaida, she's a friend; Kaida, this is Alieh, she's my twin-sister.

Alieh was happy her brother was making more friends, he hadn't been here long and he could do with knowing a few people. She looked at Kaida, Hi She smiled at her.


Feline shifter too i suppose. Tiger, right?

Alieh nodded, Yup, that's me. She looked at Kaida, wondering what type of shifter she was, or even what her primary form was. What's your form?

[Kaida]

Kaida blinked a moment. No one really asked her what her form was. Just like no one saw her in her form. Shrugging, she guessed it wouldn't hurt to tell. Besides, Niles already knew anyway. Polar bear. Canine shifter. It was odd being canine when she was so much more than that. And extreamly more powerful.

Kaida felt the few strand of her hair fall in her face, and she casualy wisked them away. Not feeling in the mood to meet to people, Kaida tried hard, for Niles' sake, to be plesant. His sister seemed nice enough. She couldnt help but wonder if she felt the same toward their family as he did. Not to mention she wondered what really did happen.

[Alieh]

Alie nodded That's nice She didn't really know what else to say, she wasn't very good at speaking, words came hard for her, not like Eilidh, who could talk for days, she found it difficult.

She didn't want to ask anything too personal, she knew some Elysians didn't like to talk about personal things, she also didn't want to seem stupid, by making small chitchat about the weather.

Eventualy she asked Soooo.....How did you two meet?

[Niles]

Niles watched Alieh and Kaida talk. They seemed to be getting on okay, they didn't look like best friends, but at least they weren't at each other's throats..

Soooo.....How did you two meet?

Niles looked over at Kaida and then back at Alieh Heh, funny story, we were in the hidden park, you know, in New York? Well, our meeting wasn't so friendly... Understatment of the centuary But well, here we are He finished lamely.

[Aeitius]

After chasing the school of small fishes for about half a mile, he noticed a larger fish coming toward their direction. Swimming blissfully with no care in the world, he immediately thought that this small fishes were gonners. He couldn't be more right for the moment the school of small fishes entered within range, the larger fish swallowed about a third of them in one stroke. Though, the small fishes attempted to swim away, the larger fish used its superior swimming ability and engulf another third of the small fishes. By the time of the third snag, the entire school of fishes were eradicated.

Saddened by what he saw, he couldn't believe that this is part of a necessary food-chain. Even though there were other school of fishes swimming in that large body of water, his thoughts of the food chain somewhat worried him.

[Kaida]

Kaida shot Niles a hard glance. Although they had met in NYC, there was so much that had happened after. She didn't feel like explaining it yet again. And she hoped Niles would get the hint. She was pleased when he decided to skip over that little part. Turning back to look at Alieh, she couldn't help but wonder how she would have reacted if she knew then truth.

Kaida shoved the thoughts away, saving them for another time. She'd find out sooner or later, and when that tims came, she'd know how she felt. As for right now, she just wanted to speak of plesant things while Niles was still here. She gave Alieh another small smile, even though it was a little forced.
