Welcome to Gaia! ::

Eric heaved a sigh. "Cordinia, could you please take care of him whilst I chase this intruder out?" he said glaring at Lawrence. Lawrence gulped and jumped back out the open window. "You're not getting away!" Eric said pursuing him.
Cordinia rocked and lightly bounced yuki. "It's ok little guy. Eric will Solve our problem," she said calmingly.
Leopold laughed. "I originally stopped to be a role model for the kid you know. Before marriage I'd love a good drink after a long day's work. Now, I'm basically jobless and my kid is off at some academy doing god knows what. I'd love to have that, to return to that. Just wake up every day and have New excitement every day. Now I'm just an old man in a town that fears me with nobody but my wife and family to talk to. The only reason I'm even here is because of my wife's relation to major members of the hollow bastion cleanup committee. Bottoms up," he said finishing another brandy. He noticed Kiru tapping the table. "something wrong man?
Patrica was smiling wide now. "Leo the lion faced as we called him was the champion and co-owner of the arena. He held a celbration for the success of the arena. Large banquet, Lots of great food and wonderful wine. All staff attended. There was a lottery to. He entered a single ticket into it. I never thought he singled me out. He flirted with just about every girl in accounting. He as a thing for women's suits, " she chuckled.
(dam you autocorrect. There's no such thing as an o-owner! )

Cordinia softly set yuki on the couch and put a small blanket on him. She rubbed his head lightly as he slept. what was I thinking? I can't still having feelings for him can I? Oh, the dopamine is running through the neurons in my mind intensely. This can't be real can it? He left all those people to die to save me, she thought.
Leopold's leg twitched. "Heartless? Here? Damn it. I can't do anything against them. Conventional weapons only work if your some sort of great hero like that cloud punk or my sister in law Tifa. Damn it. If regular weapons worked against them that sora kid would be nothing," he said slightly angry. Damn. And here I thought it'd be peaceful. I'm half drunk and have no weapons. I am not dying in this contemptible fashion, he thought.

(I seriously wondered why only final fantasy characters can harm heartless without keyblades, aside from Donald and goofy and Minnie, and all other world party members. Aren't they only supposed to be killed with the keyblade? Duuurrr nah, if your from Disney or final fantasy you can do whatever you want lol I'm ROFLCOPTER. I pay way to much attention to that game sweatdrop )
Leopold nodded. "This Isn't what I expected today to be like," he said.
Patricia went on. "He won that lotto and got our eventual family heirloom. A bostaff with two golden dragons in it. So he's making a speech after he won and thanks everyone yadda yadda yadda. He's looking at me the entire speech. Creepy and sweet at the same time of that's possible. One of my friends, bless her departed soul, convinced me to go up to him after dinner. Lo and behold he comes to me first. Such a nervous guy then. Complete opposite of his stage presence," she said sighing.
Erm awrenfe jumped in Eric's gummi ship to try and get away. Eric had accidentally left the keys in the ignition. Lawrence pulled the cockpit cover down, but Eric jumped onto the ship and stabbed through the windshield. "You know to much geffälttmir. I can't let you leave," Eric said. Lawrence started the ship and flew off with Eric dangling from his blade in the windshield. They flew off toward the dark depths.
(exit Lawrence and Eric)

(please clean up your grey matter from the adjacent walls. It's beginning to smell rofl )
Leopold tapped his wife on the shoulder. "Apparently there's heartless afoot. Prepare to run like hell," he whispered to her.
"just like our first anniversary. I'm ready to break out whenever. This place is a bit snobby for me," she whispered back.
(How about the gardens? )

Leopold pounded the last of his brandy and grabbed his wife. "Move move move!" he shouted. He half drunkenly stumbled out of the restaurant. "This place isn't safe. Let's get to the gardens," he looked back to Kiru. "Don't you die on me man. I've been to enough funerals this year," he shouted running off.
(exit)

Leopold walked back into castle town. It was obvious that something changed. The air wasn't peaceful as it once was. Leopold breathed in deeply. "well, this isn't right. It used to be so calm here," he said walking into his house. The couch was torn from heartless claws.
Cordinia slowly stood up. She held her head in one hand and tiki in the other.
"hello mr. Fringe," she said awkwardly. "yeah, sorry about the couch. I couldn't handle all them with my fists. I had to call in yuffie near the end if it,"
"remind me to send her the bill. Where the heck is my son?" leopold responded.
"oh Eric? He went off to... There was an invader before the attack. He went to chase him off,"
"that is the stupidest decision he's ever made. The kid should've stayed here and helped out kiru,"
"thats who was out there fighting through the restaurant? I'll remember the name and thank him,"
"at least you and the kid are ok. If anything happened to the kid his mom would kill you. Assuming my wife didn't first. She loves kids,"
"children are the future. I will gladly protect this little guy," she said looking to yuki and smiling. She winced in pain. "phew, I can't see straight. I need a seat for a while, she said handing the baby to Leopold. She sat down on the couch and coughed up blood.

Leopold noticed Kiru and lerana came in. He handed the baby to lerana. "I assume this little guy is yours," he said sarcastically.
Cordinia got up and found a potion in the fridge. "O thank goodness. The fridge is just fine," she said. She drank the potion. Ahhh. Much better, she thought.

Leopold looked at yuki and smiled. "It's ok little fellow. Your in your Mother's arms again. You are safe," he said.
Eric had just arrived outside the door when he heard lerana talking. He hid himself against a wall. s**t! How am I going to talk my way out of this one? I abandoned a baby for goodness sake. There apparently was a heartless attack. The air stinks with darkness, he thought. Lawrence put his hands up and walked away to yogtz's house. damn you Lawrence! Help me out here! Eric thought.
Leopold looked up from the kid and toward the door. "It appears we have a visitor," he said walking to the door. He snuck up slowly and grabbed Eric by the collar. He threw his son into the house. "Hello son," he said smiling evilly. "Would you mind explaining what has happened here?"
Eric rubbed his neck. "I forgot how strong you still are dad,"
