Welcome to Gaia! ::

Silver listen to Lisaya as her ears twitched seeing Helios move. "Oh wait Helios! I think that Lisaya wishes to be alone." She said as she walked over at him.

His concentration broke when he felt an arm tug on his. "hHmm? What do you mean? We shouldn't let anyone wander out alone in the dark. I don't even see her swimming..." Helios scanned the water. "Silver... she hasn't came up yet. I need to check the water." He shook her off and took another tentative step toward the lake. I wouldn't be surprised if that serpent Shadow hasn't dragged her off


"This would be where I used to remain." Shadow said with no emotion.

Lisaya gasped. "Shadow? You're in here? Where are you?" She ran toward the center of the room, but his voice seemed to bounce off of its walls. She couldn't even see the walls. The room looked endless. She turned around and didn't even see the door anymore. She got a little scared. The room was scary and full of mystical power.

"I am right here." He whispered rising out of her shadow.

Lisaya yelped and turned around. "Shadow! You scared me..." Her heart was racing. She looked away from him and said, "This place...-"

But Shadow cut her off with a harsh kiss he picked her up and squeezed her close to him, ignoring that her dress was soaking his clothes. He brushed a lock of wet hair off her forehead. "I've missed you so much... and I couldn't help you in the desert. I'm sorry..."

"Let him follow. What difference would it make? He might not even find her, she must be at the bottom of a lake by now completely dead." Vaati muttered with a shrug.

"Why hasn't she come up then? A human shouldn't be able to hold their breath for that long." Vaati causally said. Not that the Minish were much better; a lake to them was a mere puddle!

Helios stared at the girl irritated. Damn girl.. ruining my plans... oh well.. I need to stay on her good side though Helios turned his look into one of worry. "I just wanted to make sure she was ok." He laughed. "Why Silver... she is probably bathing, right? I get it now. She hasn't returned because she is. I wouldn't want to spy on her now." He chuckled. Maybe she is bathing... I don't feel his presence near here. Although... seeing her bathe does sound quite entertaining He smiled thinking of Lisaya scrubbing her body clean. "Don't worry Silver. I shall let her have her privacy. I won't use the rose either." Helios then walked back and sat down again.

"You were in the desert? Was it the sun? I'm sorry..." Lisaya stammered. "I had thought you left me... I didn't think about the light..."

Shadow sighed. "It is no matter now. I am here with you. That is what matters." He kissed her softly this time enjoying the warm of her body against his icy one.

"Shadow... I saw him. The one that you look like." She felt his stiffen under his touch. "But don't worry. I still love you. Nothing could replace you. I don't care if you aren't human.. or that you may not even have a heart. I love you!"

Shadow stared at her. She had completely settled most of his fears. "Lisaya..." He whispered. "I could love no one else more." He then kissed her and held her close for a couple of minutes. "You should get back... the others will worry. I think it would be best if I remained hidden for now. I will be in your Shadow if you need me." He lifted her up in his arms and took her into the shadows. he heard her gasp and he clutched her tighter. He entered back into the open by the lake. He tried to set her down, but she was still clutching his tunic as if she was holding on for dear life. "Let go my sweet. You are going to rip my tunic off." She let go slowly as Shadow kissed her one more time. he then vanished into her Shadow, content.

Lisaya felt him vanish and she walked back toward the group. Helios was watching her she felt her cheeks fluster. He smiled at her. She noticed her wet dress clung to her body, showing every crack and crease she had. It didn't help that it was white. She realized this embarrassed. "Silver! Could I get a blow dry here?" She covered her chest and turned away from Helios. How embarrassing....

((I have to go. Vaati's going to rest so if you move, you should drag him with.))

Silver ears twitched."...Alright...I believe you..." she said. Once she was done drying she went over to Arious and sat down next to him and sat down collapsing on his lap falling asleep.
