We are not alone. (open)

[skara]

Skara stood at the very edge of the forest, he was looking towards the trees as he pulled his cloak tighter against him, it was black with a yellow hem. Yes he had seen more expensive and better quality clothes since he got it -hell he grew up in a king's court- but it was the first gift ever given to him, it was the symbol of his new life as a magic user, a symbol of the one who saved his life.

The boy had come out here in the hopes a monster attacked him, all the people in this place, all the fears and all the anger was driving him insane then with the monsters drumming on his mind that has been crammed full of information by his master -some of it wrong so he has to try and sort through it all which is a massive pain in the arse- added on top he had almost constant migraines. This job wasn't the right one for him, he can feel himself cracking, feel the weaknesses that will explode and crush him under all this stress.

So he just sighed and sat down, the long sword attached to the belt of his faded blue jeans clinking gently while he waited. Something would sniff him out soon -hopefully- and when that happened he would execute it, lessen the drumming a bit. Even video games can't relax him, and since he discovered them after waking up a couple years ago he had become addicted to them. "You sent the wrong person Master." he whispered to the wind with his head between his knees as he breathed in and out slowly.

Melody giggled, she wanted to go to the woods, like she used to. Those monster won't block her. She walked towards the edge until she noticed Skara sitting down in front of her. "Oh?" She said, surprised to find him here. He was like Lilith, someone you hardly see around after class hours. "What are you doing here?" She asked, rather confused. She stroked the loose hair that were falling from her loose bun, behind her ear. "Are you ok?" She asked, going closer to the edge. "Are you going in the woods too?" She asked, smiling, trying to be nice. She didn't make such a nice impression on that day in class. "I'm Melody by the way" She added, handing her hand out down to him, for a handshake. LISTEN UP!

"I'm waiting." he replied quietly looking up at her but at a point over her shoulder, to at least give the impression he was interessed, not that he was saying he wasn't he is a friendly person after all. "I'm sure they can feel me like I can feel them. So I am waiting to see how long it takes for them to come for me." he said with a grin pulling his cloak to the side slightly to show his sword, it wasn't anything fancy, just a basic steel long sword. The special part is when he draws it, "I plan on running a couple through."

"Yeah I am fine, little sleep deprived and migranes. Nothing big. How about yourself?" he asked with a smile before looking up at the woods again, and grinned wider, "Hmmm might be more fun to go hunting instead. How would you like a knight to accompany you through the monster infested woods? It is Skara by the way, last name you couldn't say so it is just Jones."

After introducing himself he stood up to take her hand gently and kissing it softly as he bowed, lots of practice with it, hours really. Merlin was a perfectionist if anything. "So are you looking to die or have such good faith in your skills? Personally I'd say a bit of both for me."

“You’re waiting for monsters…” She asked, a bit confused, “that a bit odd.” Skara was a confusing guy for Melody, but she tried her best to look away from his quirks. “Ah! I feel pretty great, I was finally able to sleep in.” She giggled, smiling. One of those days were really rare for Melody, but she really enjoyed them when it came. She blushed a bit when he added the part of the knight, how cute. “I doubt it’s that infested.” She addd, looking around for any teachers. They would be in much trouble for just being at the edge. But no one was around at the moment. She smiled “nice to meet you Skara.” She added, looking back at him. She blushed one more when he got up and kissed her hand. Something she isn’t used to. “Oh, I don’t know…” She added, “I shouldn’t have wore white today.” She added, “I just get up and get dressed then I just go anywhere I feel like to.” She added, “I guess my body wanted to go here.” She added, giggling. “Why would you want to die?!” She asked shocked from his answer. “That’s a horrible thing to say!” She added. “Now look me in the eye and take that back” She said, rather stern about it.

"Hey I do it all the time. Protect the realm and all that, but then that was a long time ago." he said nostalgically as he ran his thumb in circles over the pommel of his sword, it was an old friend of his, got it when he achieved his knighthood. The memory was one of the few good ones he had, on his knees in his armour while Excalibur was touched to his shoulders, the thrum of the sword's magic still made him shiver. It was so powerful and complex, even his master admitted that he had very little grasp of the sword's magic, that is had qualities of conciousness, chosing it's master and who can bear it. It just made Skara feel... small.

"Sleeping well ia always good." he said with a smile after hearing her laugh, he was careful to just look at her lips, she had a nice smile and he was sure she was beautiful but checking to see if a girl was beautiful was dangerous and often as not you needed to look someone in the eye to know if they were truely beautiful. You could have Aphrodite in front of you but if here eyes were dead and without hope then what would that say? Someone being happy and full of life add a certain beauty to the person.

"I never said anything about a total infestation, any mosters near civilisation is an infestation." he replied with a grin as she blushed again, that nearly always took girls nowadays by surprise and it was sort of fun, "Please Lady Melody, the pleasure is all mine."

"Well regardless of shouldn't have worn white today you look very beautiful my Lady." he said somewhat sheepishly, that was a part of his knighthood he found awkward, not really the confident suitor. He then smiled at her slightly and sighed, "Lots of people want to die than lived cursed. And for me the curse is my blood and not a spell so it will always be with me." he told her as he walked slowly towards the woods after she told him to look into her eyes, if she wanted to look into his eyes she would have to chase after him.

“Oh? You do?” She asked a bit confused, but giggled it away. She listen to the rest of his words, it just made her blush even more. No one called her a lady before and it is a rather awkward thing to do these days. Then he called her beautiful, she couldn’t help but giggle to that. “Well you don’t look that bad either.” She smiled, giggling even more. Then he started to talk again, about a curse. Oh my. He started to walk towards the woods, but Melody had to process the words first. A few minutes later she turned around, “hey, wait.” She added as she rushed over to him. “Well if it’s in your blood… You’ll die one day, you are just not ready!” She added, “just enjoy life as it is! If you don’t, you’ll regret it.” She smiled once more at him, giggling. “So what are you going to do now?” She asked, wondering where is heading off to. “Just wonder around?” She added, following him, watching every step she takes. She didn’t want to get dirty or some sort. At some points it did become nasty as some spots were muddy. They kept walking deeper into the woods. “Ah, I don’t think I got the correct shoes on right now.” She said, frowning as she looked down at her now dirty red heels. She muttered something about being an idiot and how the world can be very unfair. She scrapped some mud off from a large root that was poking out into the fresh air. “Ew.” She added, frowning even more as she saw some mud fall off. LISTEN UP!

"Yup, some people read, others dance or paint to relax. I kill le monsters." he said with a smirk and a shrug, yep, he is a bonafide weirdo nowadays, actually he was a weirdo a long time ago but especially now. It isn't killing monsters that actually relaxing him, it's the fight, the challenge and rush of adreniline, he would get the same relaxation with any kind of fight, with fists, swords, magic. Sparring isn't quite as fun, yeah there is always the chance of dying but it is not very likely, especially with other magic users around. He chuckled slightly at that thought, he guessed that is wasn't the fight that relaxed him but that he might die, unlike most people he isn't afraid of death.

He smiled widely as she blushed more, the whiteness of his teeth showing, "You should have seen me when I was seven then. I was the smallest, skinniest -well gauntest really-, ugliest, dirtiest little peasent you have ever seen. Urgh I must have stunk to high heaven, but your nose tends to stop smelling things like that after a while." he joked to her before walking off before he started to laugh.

"I have been ready for death years ago Lady Melody, barely having the food to survive makes a kid accept death before his time. I have no life to live my Lady, my master saved my life and until he sees fit to free me from that debt or I save his I am bound to his service." he explained with a sad smile looking at her face -being careful not look look into her eyes- and smiled as she giggled again, it was a nice sound, like bird song or rainfall or the noise of a river. Not that you get to hear much of that in this time, it is all cars and phones and humans and lots of other crap. "How about you live a good life for us both then, you seem to be happy enough."

"It is a wood, it is what you do. You wander. Jeeze don't people in this time know anything about nature. Too obsessed with tv or video games i bet." he said with a sigh and shook his head. When he heard her moan about the mud, well it was an 'ew' but it sounded like a moan he laughed, some things never change with women. So he turned back and drapped his cloak around her shoulders, revealing the thin almost skin tight black t-shirt he had on, it showed off his muscles very well but he wasn't all muscle, just well toned and with enough muscles from all his swordsmanship. It was a swordsman's build.

The next thing he did was turn around and kneel in the mud with a short, "All aboard the Skara train. Leaving the platform for the monster infested woods in twenty seconds." he laughed and looked around and up at her, "Come on girl hurry up, haven't got all day."

“Oh, um, ok…” She said, “don’t you think I am bit too heavy?” She asked, she knew that he was taller than her and weighed more. What worried her really was that most of her weight was on her hips and chest, she is a curvy girl. She climbed, blushing a bit. But she giggled, not used to the feeling of getting a piggy back ride. She kept quiet for awhile, not wanting to disturb the silence. “What if I want you to be happy?” She asked, leaning her chin on his shoulder. “I’m not always happy either…” She added, looking down at the ground. Sometimes she does notice that she gets used, when people do point it out, very clearly. She is plainly scared to get her heart stomped on. “You know, I’m sure kids at that age were never pleasant.” She added, changing the subject, before she leaks out. “I was pretty dirty too, always had wounds, always cried…” She paused, “I was pretty annoying.” She smiled, giggling to that. Thinking about her mom who had to fix the mess, now she hardly sees her mother. “How about I make you happy?” She smiled, looking over to his face, going back to that subject, “you’re a boy, you like video games, right?” She asked, “it’s more fun when you play it with a friend.” She added, smiling brightly, still having a rosy face. “We should be friends, I like you.” Now trying to hide her face behind his shoulder blade, only her eyes poking out from the surface.

"A beautiful lady is never to heavy. And besides, what kind of gentleman complain about a girl's weight?" he replied to her with a smile but with his back to her she couldn't see it. So he just gently grasped her legs holding her firmly against him and started to rise making noises like he was struggling to stand up or taking a massive shit. After a quick chuckle he stood up easily and looked back to stick his tongue out blushing a bit at the feeling of her body -coughbreastscough- against his back, "You are not heavy at all my Lady."

"We just met, why would you want me to be happy? And I was rude to a teacher in case you forgot that, not that you can blame me, elves are the slickesst silver tounged buggers you will ever meet. Never trust an elf, or at least not completely and especially not with your life." he explained as he picked a random direction into the woods and just took off at a stroll, the mud and dead leaves and sticks and plant matter (humus to those people that have to name everything). He then squeezed her legs gently, "Hey now enough of that, you shouldn't be sad, pretty girls shouldnt get sad. Every time you do an angel dies. So smile and be happy and if you get down don't let it be anyone upsetting you, let it be a death or worry for a friend. Not cause people are being horrible to you, don't let them win."

He shook his head gently and smiled back at her as he walked, "It wasn't the kids. A lot were in the same position I was, no matter how good Arthur was he could not save everyone and there was so much dirt it had to be scrapes off, when my master saved me i needed like 5 baths to get rid off all the dirt. Now speaking of Arthur, no ruler has ever come close to his greatness, he was sort of like an uncle or something." he admitted to to the girl and smiled at her and closed his eyes, letting his lessons on the flow of magic in nature to guide him through the trees.

"How about a kiss and I'll think about letting you make me happy?" he joked and jumped over a thick tree root, if he kept walking forward no looking where he was going the root would have tripped him up. "Yeah I like them but I am no good, only been playing for a couple years."

“I don’t know…” She paused thinking about it, “I was rude to you, I was pretty mean.” She added, feeling ashamed for what she did. Now he is carrying her on his back, a turn of events, very. “I’m sorry.” She whispered, still a bit of ashamed. She listened to his words, keep calling her pretty, which made her blush a new time. The little squeeze on her legs just made her face cherry red, just wanted to throw that in there. “It still hurts.” She added, “but I get over it fast, often I even forget about it.” She added, forcing a smile. The truth, she never forgot about those times, it pretty much breaks her heart every time she thinks about it. “I try my best to become stronger after each heart break…” She added, a bit unconscious that she said it out loud. She went back to the world when he started to talk again, “you’re that old?!” She asked in shocked, “wow!” she exclaimed. “Well you are a pretty lucky fellow for being saved.” She smiled, “guess it was fate.” Putting her chin back on his shoulder, as the redness of her face went away. A few moments pasted and she needed to blush. She didn’t take that as a joke, typical airhead. Now her face was red and she just stared out in front of her, not knowing what to do. ‘For real?’ she thought to herself, she didn’t even pay attention to his last bit of conversation. Her heart was pumping harder, but she still felt calm inside. It was the silence before the great storm. ‘What to do?’ She kept asking herself, over and over again. The little airhead decided what to do, a peck on the cheek, just for him. Her heart was pumping even faster, it took a lot for her to do so, she was a rather shy person at times, especially about romantic things. Always scared of the true outcome, always scared of true feelings. She bent her head over, to see his reaction, scared what it’ll look it... LISTEN UP! THIS POST IS FOR Melody Angeline Moffit.

"Nah you were fine, I may be wrong about the guy but something tells me I'm not. Whether it is just instinct or whatever lets me sence monsters or know that his greatest fear was sleeping I dunno. There is nothing wrong with sticking up for a teacher, if someone insulted my master I wouldn't stand for it. And if I wasn't busy carrying you I'd poke you for being silly." he said with a large yawn, he didn't not like her or anything for that day, perhaps other hated him for his outburst and words but he didn't care what they thought, to be tricked by an elf is their problem not his. "Nobody has a reason to say sorry for me."

"Whatever you say Miss Melody. And it never makes us stronger, all we can do it try to repair the damage and live on." he said smiling warmly at her obviously not buying that she is ok with it, plus all her blushing was fun. He shook his haid and walked towards the bright patch of land ahead that appeared to be a clearing, "No I am not that old. Yes I was born around 1500 years ago but I have only lived about fifty. Merlin keeps putting me into a suspended animation thing, until I find my one or something to free me from my oath. And it wasn't fate, demon blood calling to demon blood." he felt good about admitting this stuff to someone but he wondered if she would pick up his joke about waiting for "the one".

When she kissed his cheek he stayed dead ahead, his hands on her thigh squeezing tighter as he walked towards the clearing. He tried to speak but all that came out was a cough or two so he just kept walking until they reached the clearing, it was sunny and covered with lots of colours from all the flowers, "Damn! Tis almost as beautiful as you." he finally got out as he slowly set her on the ground, the ground was dry and hard, no mud around so she should be ok for now.

“Oh, well I hope you find the that one!” She added, winking at him, “I can help!” She giggled, which turned into a laugh. Ignoring the day in the classroom, that was past for the moment, she didn’t care at the moment. She watched, hearing only coughs coming out of his mouth. She took that as a bad sign and stayed silent till they reached a clearing, she stared in awe. She had to blush one more time as Skara kept saying those nice things to her. She was let down, she couldn’t help but smile brightly. She let her body fall down to the ground, snuggling all the flowers, enjoying the sun rays hitting her skin. She was surprised that they go here without encountering a monster. This must be a lucky day today! She sniffed the air, the scent of the flowers filled the her nose. “Ah! It’s wonderful!” She added, no matter how many times she was in the forest, she never found this place before. She wished she could bottle it up and place it in her room. “I wish I could take this place with me.” She added, looking up at Skara. She had to blush again, the kiss was too embarrassing to her. She should have never done that, she doesn’t even want to know what he thinks about her. Probably something bad. ‘I must be lucky that he didn’t drop me right there at that stop.’ Her heart slowed down, not even till now. “Um, by the one, what exactly do you mean about that? Or were you just joking around.” She asked, trying to forget about the situation she made, “sorry, I can be an airhead sometimes.” She added, forcing a smile. LISTEN UP!

"Help how?" he asked with a chuckle as he thought of what she'd help doing it. Find a love spirit or something, love spell, find soul mate spell or something similar, or was she planning to be 'the one'? He asked himself, her wink would indicate something like that... hmmm is she the sort of girl that rushes into things? Not like he had anything anyone would like, they would all do a runner finding out why he won't look them in the eyes, that is if they don't mine he keeps looking away.

When she didn't say anything he figured she regretted what she did. That made him feel like an idiot and a twat for asking for a kiss, he should have just walked away when she talked to him, should have blurred back into obsurity. He didn't like crowds that was true and in a school there are as much crowds as stars in the sky, he had thought he could handle talking to one person, what a fool.

He laughed at her reaction and he kneeled down beside her and smiled, "I may be able to help with that, you don't happen to have a spare button now do you?" he asked her and shook his head. "Never mind, I have something better." he whispered and walked to the centre of the clearing as he untied a ribbon from around his scabbard, the glamour that kept his eye that dark purple was tied to his mind, it kept going as long as he wanted it to, but if he tied it to the ribbon he could change it to looking at the clearing.

He slowly turned around in a circle, memorising the colours and flowers, building up the jigsaw in his mind before he winked at her and closed his eyes. He then pictured the clearing and moved the ribbon over his eyes and when he opened them the glamour was inside the ribbon, walking back over to Melody with his light purple eyes with that bird like image he handed over the ribbon and smiled at her. "Pour in a little magic, just a drop." he suggested and looked away with a blush at her last question, "As in the love of my life, my soulmate, the one. And again stop saying sorry."

She smiled as she stared down at the ribbon. Her eyes sparkled of happiness, she took the ribbon and tied it around her wrist, making a cute bow. “Thank you, you are awesome, I’ll have it everywhere I go.” “I’m sorry!” She exclaimed, she was the type to apologize even for apologizing. She frowned, being ashamed for being rude to him. Maybe he feels uncomfortable for people saying sorry. “Oh! Well then I’ll find a girl for you.” She said, smiling, “I think you deserve it.” She giggled, “you’re so sweet.” She grabbed his hand, pulling him down to her, laughing. “I guess we won’t be meeting any monsters today.” She added, still smiling, rather happy about it. “But no, really, you deserve to be loved, you are in an emotional bad state.” She said, frowning about it, hoping he’ll get better. She was sure once he finds love, he’ll never think about his ‘cruse’. He’ll be so happy, that’ll he’ll forget he is ‘cursed’. “It’s going to be my mission now.” She looked down, peeking up to his face once in awhile, “and I won’t fail.” being fully motivated about it.

"No my upbringing is awesome. It was once a token for a melee, pretty little noble girl. Too bad Merlin's little half demon apprentice couldn't marry but could be knighted, she was a nice kid to." he laughed and smiled at her, "So I thought I'd give it to another nice pretty girl with an extra little gift, you wanted to take this place with you so I gave it to you. Tweaked my eye glamour for the illusion on the ribbon, just needs a spark of magic."

"Next time you say sorry I am putting you over my knee little lady." he joked with a laugh as he reached out to mess up her hair, keeping his eyes on her lips, "And I may be sweet and nice but that is only cause I will learn your fears eventually and I'd rather show you a nice time before I make you hate me. I do not deserve it Lady Melody, why would someone with Demon blood deserve anything good?"

"I could summon a couple here if you want. You may die however, or me, or both." he offered and winked at her with a laugh, "I barely had a life until Merlin found me, couldn't read or write, couldn't talk or count, of course I'm screwed up. But do not worry about me, focus on your own happiness instead."
