*Kero does grow angry...but he tries to keep his calm...he checks the other names once more to be sure*
Note: Emnast?

yep.... his brother's essence is somehow tied to that shadow... but it isn't harming her... rather it seems to be protecting her from something...

*Kero looks at Shia*
Shia...could you excuse me for a moment...I need to do a bit of research...I swear that I will tell you anything I think you need to know...

she shrugs and nods... then goes to work in her garden.... she is still there when kero goes to find her some time later... she is singing a sweet tune to the sound of a simple pipe... but when ye join her, there is no one to be found....

*Before he does, though, Kero sits down, right after she leaves, and pulls out an onyx, setting it on the desk...he utters his brother's real name, laced with hatred though it is, summoning him...an inky shadow appears, resolving itself into Emnast...the oldest hatchling of their nest, and his murderer*
Brother...this is no pleasure chat...I want to know...why is your essence on my apprentice?
Note: You stuck him on there...you tell Kero what's happening

Emnast glares at him.... I have no idea what you are talking about, Kerobian. Why on earth would i try to subvert your apprentice when it would be so much easier simply to snatch her up, cups and all, and drag to my domain.... I am quite certain she is fully loyal to you by now... how many centuries has she been working in this back end job, slaving at your wishes... His voice is sarcastic, dripping with venom, but you can detect no falsehood in what he has stated. He doesn't seem to know about Shia at all.

*Kero cocks his eyelid*
Fine...then you won't mind letting me examine your soul, just to see...because we both know that I don't trust you...and that the feeling is mutual...

Odd, his soul is completely free of any trance of the kitsune... Apparently he was telling the truth.

*Kero nods, taking a small sample of his essence to compare to the sample he took from Shia*
Strange...very strange...Brother...I suspect something more important than our little vendetta is coming up...this has the smattering of Chaos...and none of the four energies want that...

the essences are identical save fr one small part... the one from shia is less antagonistic and somehow, for all that they are the same.. it coulld actually be younger than the mage standing before him.....

*Kero ignores his brother's impatient pacing...neither one of them wants a fight...and they both know it...he examines the two scraps...concluding that one of them does indeed come from a younger Emnast...somehow, Shia had attached herself to his brother's younger self*
Thank you for your time, brother...I'll let you get back to your sulking in the shadows...begone from my Void...

but before he could leave, the door opens and shia comes in carrying a stack of files fo rhea... she stumbles to a halt dropping the files to the floor, staring at emnast then blushes beet red... for his part emnast is struck silent... he stares back for all of five seconds, then to kerkobian's surprise he bends down and picks up the files and hands them back to her with a galant flourish...
Kerobian... he says in a soft moon struck voice... where have you been hiding this one... then he winks at her and vanishing in a swirl of shadowy mist....
well... says shia after regaining her composure... that went well, i suppose... she hands kero the files and turns towards the door....

*Kero is left stunned...and I mean with a capital S...T...U..N...N...E...and D...His jaw drops and his eyes pop...and he slowly falls apart at the seams*
