Passion meets prison...

[Kailyn]

The moon was bright and the sky was full of stars,it was a beautiful night.Kai sighed softly as she walked towards the outskirts of the forest.The hood to her black cloak threw her pale face in shadow as she lifted her gaze to the towering trees.Lifting the cloak,and the skirts underneath she walked into the forest.Walking through the forest was slightly easier for her today due to the fact that her wings were magically hidden. Deeper and deeper she went,until finally she stopped in a small clearing.The trees here seemed to tower over her,and incircle around her seeming to form a protective knot around the clearing and its sole occupant.

Pulling off her cloak Kai allowed her deep black and red wings to reappear.Kai smiled as she looked around at the familiar clearing with bright red-gold eyes.Gliding over to a rock in the center she bent and pulled a faded book out of under it.Straightening she rearranged the long black dress she wore and sat gingerly on the rock,crossing her legs at the ankles.Placing the book on her lap,she took the quill attached to its side.

She had been feeling so lost and shattered lately,and the dreams of the night her family and true love died kept haunting her every minute.So she had decided to come out here and pour her heart(or what was left of it) into the book passed onto her by her mother. Bending over the book she opened it to a blank page and began to write,rapidly filling its pages.For the whole of twenty minutes all that could be heard was the scratching of quill against paper,and a soft humming going in-tune to the writing.Straightening again she placed the quill by her side.Reading through the writing she sang the words aloud.

Here you have been
Where you are closer to Jupiter
Here you have been dreaming of missing
of strawberry kisses
Driving all night
Driving all day

Am I broken?
Am I new?
Am I lovely?
Am I you?
Nobody knows this, you only know this
Passion meets prison

Here you have been
Giving me your honor
Loving me tender
And your arms are outstretched
With the happiness you guilt under your hat
Shove it away into a sunshiny day

The rain soaked through that night you know
Puddles were dance floors
and you laughed and I played
Here you have been
Dreaming of flowers
Living on sand houses
Blowing in the wind- flying with
10 cent wings
Could you believe me when I whisper love
You called me your mariposa, papillon, butterfly

Am I broken?
Am I new?
Am I lovely?
Am I you?
Nobody knows this, you only know this
Passion meets prison

I've given you a written card
Signed in love
for anything and everything and nothing
All at once, one by one
Strawberry kisses, driving away
Because this was the last lovely day...

[Isaac]

"Odd place for writing a novel, wouldnt you say?" A voice called softly. Isaac seemed to appear from the very darkness between the trees, walking with his back erect, his chin high. His cane was clutched loosely in one hand, the said hand idly tapping it against his thigh.

[Kailyn]

Kai's red-gold eyes snapped to the student. "It's not a novel" she said in haunted voice "It's a diary of dreams." The demon girl studied the student with cautious eyes.

[kadarei]

A deep voice came from beside the student as he watched the other demon study him. "He means no harm, Miss." He then turned to Isaac and nodded to him. "Greetings Isaac. Pleasure to see you again."

[Isaac]

Isaac laughed shortly as Kadarei talked about seeing him again, "Yes, um, same to you. And I meant no offense miss, it is a fairly large book you're holding, and its a somewhat common mistake." Isaac replied.

[Maí Lé Rosà]

Mai stepped forward from a thicket of shadows, alongside the small group that was growing. Her hair fell over half of her face, only revealing one of her scarlet-tinted eyes as she eyed the student carefully. She approached the male demon and the boy by his side, keeping her eye fixed upon the mortal.

Tracing a cold, spiderlike finger along the boy's jawline she slowly pulled it back to her side, before gazing over at the demoness that sat atop a rock in what appeared to be the center of the dull clearing. She was a pretty darl, looking similar to Mai. Her eyes held a red tint also, her wings charred an ebony black colour and her long dress was black. So was Mai's.

Mai offered a half-smile to the other demoness and winked her visible eye, silently admiring how beautiful the moonlight made this other demoness look. She was obviously new in the wood, as was the other demon before her. Turning back to the student she lifted a hand, gently tucking the curtain of ivory hair behind her ear, revealing another equally deep iris of blood-red.

"Tell me, how do you know the size of her book when you do not have the gift of sight?" She whispered quietly to the boy, her tone was not offensive, merely crisp with curiosity.

She took a step back from the boy, so she stood about a meter away, whether it was for personal space or worry, the others would never know. However from Mai to the boy, it was a warning. She was deeply intrigued as to know how he knew the size of the book the other demoness held, when Mai's judgement of his eyesight was not incorrect. He was definitely blind.

[Isaac]

Isaac flinched slightly as the demoness ran a finger along his jawline, he wasnt used to being touched like that. As for the book..... he chuckled. "Her voice. My ears and other senses are very acute, thus, from the displacement of the sound waves coming from her voice, I knew the book to be fairly large, hence, I believed it was a novel." He explained.

[Kailyn]

"I never said I was offended I merely said it isn't a novel" she replied to the human "And yes it is fairly large,but almost half empty."

Kai let her gaze wander from the human to the demon that had defended him.Then slowly towards the demoness.A small smile seemed to tug at Kai's lips,the demoness held many similarities to herself.The red tinted eyes,ebony wings and style of dress.

Realizing she was staring she moved her gaze back to the human.After hearing his answer she asked "Who are you?"

[Isaac]

"My name is isaac, and you are?" isaac replied.

[Kailyn]

"Kailyn,charmed I'm sure." she said easily.Then sweeping a pointed gaze from demon to demoness she asked "May I be so bold as to ask your names?" One brow lifted slightly as a smile glued itself to her face.Old habits die hard;eitquette and politeness had been beaten into her from a young age.

[Maí Lé Rosà]

Mai stepped back further from Isaac and the other demon, resuming her position in the shadows at the slightly sloped edge of the clearing. Her smooth skin soaked up the darkness like ice to a flame, her soft breath rattling in and out like the dying sizzle of a fire, just audible...

Suddenly her breath stopped and she disappeared, reappearing behind and above him on the low reaching branch of a large tree. She clasped her fingers tightly around the branch on either side of her, then leaned down, bending her arms just under breaking point. Her elbows rose a little ways above her head as she lowered herself until her chest law flat against the branch.

Her attractive voice whispered to Isaac once again, further prying in curiosity. She wondered when the demon beside the boy would pipe up. "Could you not hear the pretty little melody slipping through her sweet lips...?" She ushered, swinging herself back up into the tree with a quick smirk. She leaned her back against the trunk of the tree and dipped her legs over each side of the branch, the ruffles of her dress hid anything above her thighs.

Some would have wished the dress wasn't there at all...

"She wrote to the rhythm of her song..." Mai spoke down to Isaac, glancing over at the other demoness as a flash of sympathy streaked over her facial features. The darkness concealed the demoness in the tree so it was a doubt that anyone would have seen her face change for that split second.

"May I be so bold as to ask your names?"

Mai lifted her left leg over the other side of the branch so she was behind/above the male demon. She tilted her head and a cheeky grin slid into her lips as she dropped, landing directly behind him with a gentle thud of her boots. She looked him over from behind, then trailed one of her nails softly down his spine at his neck, before dropping her hand back to her side quietly. Within another few moments she'd stepped to the side of the two males and disappeared into the trees on the other side of the clearing.

"Maí Lé Rosà, but Mai is just fine." She said cautiously as she appeared out of the darkness behind the rock that Kailyn sat on.

[Kailyn]

Kai smiled slightly as she watched the demoness. Lowering her head she closed her eyes for a brief second,seeing the words to her song as bright as day.At the sound of Mai's voice behind her she turned slightly,gazing up at her from beneath the many pale locks that had fallen across her face. "A pleasure...Mai." she said in her whisper soft voice.Strange she thought to herself referring to the similarities between herself and the demoness currently behind her.

[Isaac]

Isaac remained still, as if suddenly frozen in place. The gentle caress of Mai's voice was teasing him, causing his mind to be inflamed with...... impurity. "Mai le Rosa, it suits you, to a point. And many people sing to themselves when they're trying to think." Isaac said.

[Kailyn]

Or trying not to think Kailyn's soft child like voice rang in Isaac's mind.Leaning forward it seemed she was about to fall when suddenly she vanished in a swirl of shadows.She reappeared a couple feet above the small group,sitting on a low branch swinging her bare feet back and forth,the ruffles in her long dress blowing softly in the wind.

As she kept swinging her legs she began to sing,her soft voice carrying in the wind I think,therefore I feel,someone one is breathing on me,my skin begins to curl,I become drowsy,and when I begin to close my eyes I see a faded picture of her... She let her voice trail off as she lowered her deceivingly innocent gaze back to the group.

[Isaac]

Isaac sighed deeply, then abruptly ran straight at a tree. He threw his cane high into the air, jumped, landed briefly against the trunk of the tree before jumping again. He grabbed his cane out of midair as he grabbed another branch, and using it as a fulcrum, threw himself into space once more. He landed easily, hooking his legs around and branch and dangling beneath it like a monkey. His face was close to Kailyn's, albeit upside-down. "I thought you people were demons, not monkey." He said with a smirk.
