Re: [M] Assassination Limited (Saviour)

[Saviour]

[[ Haha that sucks, and kk ]]

Toby nodded and glanced over at Athea. "Well, you know me now, feel free to stop by whenever you like" He said with an awkward chuckle. Damien rolled his eyes, and looked over at Athea. "Want to stay here, meet the others, or just go?" He asked her.

[Tayssi]

Athea gave a soft smile to the man and nodded, then when Damien spoke, she looked back up at him and gave a light shake of her head with a shrug. "Why don't we meet the others?" she replied with a smile. To be honest, she just wanted to see if any was that man from earlier, cause Toby wasn't him, that was for sure. The man she had seen was calm and almost silent, stood straight, was tall and a not so nice look in his eyes.

[Saviour]

Damien nodded and turned back to Toby "It was nice meeting you" He said with a small smile. He headed for the door as though he couldn't wait to get out. Glancing back, he held the door open for Athea and stepped out behind her. Damien glanced at the houses, and walked by the middle one. He stepped towards the one on the far right and glanced over at her. "This one used to belong to Addie.. Not sure if it still does" He said.

[Tayssi]

Athea gave a soft nod to the man before she stood up, rushed herself off and then walked outside, smiling in thanks as Damien opened the door for her. She paused outside and waited for Damien before she followed beside him, glancing at the middle shack, wondering why they had skipped it, before they came to the far right one. Then Damien spoke and she looked at the shack before looking at him. "What do you mean you don't know if it still does?" she asked softly.

[Saviour]

Damien shrugged at her question. "It's been ages since I've been here" He said honestly with a light shrug. He stepped up to the door and knocked three times like he usually did. He backed down the steps like he had on the first shack.

[Tayssi]

Athea gave a nod of ackowledgement and then looked at the door as he knocked on it. The door opened and Athea knew, even if it was a woman, it wasn't who Damien ahd thought it had ben. She was young, maybe 20, with long red hair and grey eyes. "Hi?" she asked, almost defensive in her words and stance. She stared at the two, almost scrutinising.

[Saviour]

Damien's lips curled down into a frown when he saw the woman. "Hey... Is Addie in there?" He asked, assuming the answer would be no. He was still curious though, he had been friends with Addie for a long time and he was kind of worried about her. The woman had a sharp, almost accusing look to her features, and her grey eyes seemed to add to that cold appearance. He slid his hands into his pockets and looked up at the woman. "We aren't here to cause trouble" He said.

[Tayssi]

The woman staed at them and then Damien spoke and she focused her attention on him. He mentioned Addie and the redhead visibly relaxed. "Ah, you're here for Addie. She's not back yet. She went out just a littl while ago," she said and then looked at Athea, "I'm Brooke, who are you guys?" she said, now with a slight, though still catuious smile. "I'm Athea," she replied and then looked at Damien.

[Saviour]

The relief showed clearly on Damien's face. He offered a small smile to the woman and nodded. "I'm Damien... Are you a friend?" He asked her, and relaxed a little now that she had stopped looking like she wanted to shoot lasers at them with her eyes. He glanced over at the middle shack. It was darker than these two on the end, and it looked slightly run down. He looked back at the woman after a moment.

[Tayssi]

Brooke shook her head at Damien's question. "Niece," she replied, "I moved in with Addie a few years ago," she said and gave a soft smile and then stepped away from the doorway. "Come in, Addie will be happy to see some friends," she saida nd Athea glanced at Damien before stepping inside.

[Saviour]

Damien nodded "I've heard some about you" He said, obviously saying he had only heard a little about her when she was a young girl. He stepped inside with Athea and glanced around. A grin lifted his expression. "She has a thing for order... And she doesn't like change" He said, noting how everything was just as it was the last time he had visited. "Do you know where she went?" He asked her, still looking around. It was like he went back in time as he walked through that door.

[Tayssi]

Athea watched as Brooke sat down on a chair to the side and propper her feet up on the chair, resting her chin on her knees. Athea smiled at Damien's words and then Brooke gave a ligh shrug. "Probably just to go get some food or water," she replied with a light smile. Athea looked around the shack; it was certainly organised and everything was easy to see and find. "So what did you guys want with Addie?" Brooke asked curiously and Athea turned her attention to Damien for a moment before rested her gaze on the pretty redhead.

[Saviour]

Damien nodded. He almost thought it strange that the two hadn't run into her, but he didn't make that thought apparent. "Well, Athea's new and I though it would be nice for her to make friends with the translators... And I'm an old friend. She'd never forgive me if I didn't stop by" He said, a grin lifting on his lips and he chuckled softly. She would be frustrated, but he doubted she would actually be angry. He ran his fingers through his hair before pulling his bag off his shoulder. The tan shoulder strap falling lifelessly beside it on the shack's floor.

[Tayssi]

Brooke gave a light nod to the pair and then leaned back in the chair with a sigh. "Well, she should be home soon. She's been gone for a little while now," she replied, staring at the two before leaning her head back and closig her eyes. Athea turned her attention from Brooke to Damien and gave a soft smile. "What's she like?" she asked him lightly, reverting her gaze to look around the shack again. She cocked her head to the side and listened to something. "Someone's here," she said gently and the door opened.

(you play Addie?)

[Saviour]

Damien nodded, and a friendly smile lifted on his lips shortly. He turned to Athea as she spoke, and then smirk softly. "Time to find out" He said playfully before standing up. He watched as the door opened and Addie broke through the door. Her eyes faced the floor, and she seemed a little exhausted. Her shoe pushed the door back as she glanced up, and for a moment her expression went blank. Addie stumbled over the face, recognition fighting disbelief. "Damien?" She said, her voice was soft. He shrugged, and chuckled before they hugged. She gritted her teeth as they clutched each other, and she shook her head before slapping his shoulder teasingly. "Thought you forgot about me" She said with a smirk, and her eyes turned to Athea. She paused, then decided she didn't really recognize the woman. "I don't think we've met, I'm Addie" She said, offering a slender hand to shake.

[Tayssi]

Athea looked at the elderly lady and she cocked her head to the side and watched her and Damien. As they spoke, she stood up, brushing herself off momentarily before straightening as Abbie look at her. Giving a small smile before she came over and introduced herself,shaking her hand. Smiling, she shook her hand, "Athea, it's a pleasure to meet you," she said lightly with a kind smile. Athea glanced at Damien as her hand dropped to her side. Pushing a stray lock of dark hair behind her ears, Athea looked at Brooke who stood up and gave Addie a give hug before she dismissed herself and bolted out the door like she had someone she desperately wanted to see, or somewhere to be.

[Saviour]

Damien grinned, then looked over at Athea as she spoke. Addie hugged the girl briefly and turned to watch her leave the hut. Shaking her head and grinning, she turned back around and smiled at Athea. "It's nice to meet you" She said, and looked over at Damien. "Too busy to stop by? Sheesh" She teased, though it held some seriousness to it. She turned and set the bags on the wooden countertop. Damien shrugged slightly. He knew he should've come by and said hello, but it'd been rough to leave her like that. They were close. Not, in a lover sort of way, but they were like brother and sister. The way that she acted when he said he was leaving hurt him. He didn't want to come back. Now, though, seeing how she was happy to see him, he felt guilty for not coming earlier.

[Tayssi]

Athea watched Addie and Damien in silence, ducking her head slightly, her dark hair flling over her face. She felt rather uncomfortable here. Damien and Addie had known eachother for ages. She felt like an intruder, an outsider. And she didn't like it. Looking away from the pair, she looked around the hut, as to so to try and distract herself from the emotions she wanted to trample on. What right did she have to feel like that? It's not like she liked Damien or anything. Hell, she hardly even knew the man. And she had literally just met Addie.
But even so, Athea did feel like she didn't belong.

[Saviour]

Damien grinned slightly and stepped back, and Addie moved to put away the groceries. Curiosity and confusion took Damien's features hostage, and he touched Athea's shoulder slightly. "Everything alright?" He asked her quietly. Addie wouldn't hear them, she never did. Let's just say the woman was a terrible multi-tasker.

[[ Agh, sss ]]

[Tayssi]

Athea had been so lost in her own thoughts, that she was caught off guard when Damien touched her shoulder. She looked up at him, blinking in surprise and then gave a light shake of her head, "i'm fine," she lied. What could she say? "That she felt out of place? Obviously, she should. She didn't know Addie at all and hardly knew Damien. One should feel that way. And yet, she didn't want to.

[Saviour]

Damien noticed her surprise and stepped back. It was an almost unnoticeable adjustment. The man nodded softly, though he wasn't convinced. "If you want, we can leave.." He said, hoping she was alright like she had said, but something kept him from believing it. Addie dropped a box in the kitchen, and she cursed loudly. Noticing she had done so, the woman slapped a pale hand to her lips and whirled around to ensure they hadn't noticed. Damien saw this, and chuckled lightly before turning back to Athea.

[Tayssi]

Athea looked up at Damien as he stepped back and then looked away as he spoke. She gave a soft sigh and shook her head. "No, i'm fine," she said softly and gave a hesitant smile before she heard addie curse and she glanced over at her for a moment, hearing Damien chuckle. She looked back at the man and gave a forced grin. "Don't worry about me, I can handle myself," she said lightly and shrugged.

[Saviour]

Damien frowned at her words, but nodded. Why did he care, anyway? She had, after all, tried to kill him just the other day. Shaking his head at himself, Damien turned around and moved to help Addie with the groceries. His mind wasn't with him, but the physical motion and procedure followed gave him consolation

[[ Gaud ]]

[Tayssi]

Athea cocked her head to the side and watched as he went over to Addie and helped her. Tilting her head back, she stared at the ceiling, her dark eyes seeming deeper then the ocean as thoughts flew through her mind. Shaking the thoughts away finally, Athea watched Damien and Addie for a few minutes and then noticed it was late afternoon already. Glancing at the pair, noticing they were both busy and not paying attention to her whatsoever, Athea slipped out the front door, silently closing it. She looked at the sky and then wandered idly through the village, ignoring the stares and whispers some had towards her. Soon enough, Kai came back, landing heavily next to her with a massive sigh. She stared at him as he stood up and shook out his feathers. "Nothing of interest for atleast the next 4 days walk. Not that I could see anyway. It was mainly trees and the occassional field," He told her and Athea nodded and ran a hand through Kai's neck feathers and the griffin purred before she wrapped her arms around his neck as he leaned down, burying her face in his fur and feathers. "Athea?" Kai questioned, worried. She merely shook her head, confusion completely washing over her. Why should she care what Damien thought about others or what she meant to him?

[Saviour]

Damien hadn't taken notice to the empty silence in the cabin as he finished his work. When he was done, he turned and straightened himself to see Addie standing directly before him. Her sweet smile was comforting, symbolizing a time in his past when nothing really mattered. Instinctively, he pulled the smaller frame of her close to him, and lowered his head to kiss her. She accepted, and her lips parted slightly for him. He had expected so much more, and the disappointment in the kiss sickened Damien. He truly longed for the relationship he had with Addie before. Whenever a touch could send fireworks through his fingertips, when a kiss was like the Aurora Borealis. She was his when she was in his arms, and this used to give him a thrill. Now, it brought about disappointment. Damien pulled back from this kiss, and noticed the glossed daze in Addie's eyes. The same she had always looked when they kissed. Damien's brows tightened, then released and his eyes softened at her appearance. It felt as though his heart had fallen to his stomach. Shaking his head, Damien slipped around Addie and clasped his masculine hand to his lips. What was wrong with him? He winced, and pushed the door of the cabin open. He noticed Athea had left, and he told himself he should go after her. Damien told himself it was to ensure her safety, but something within him longed to just see her again. This only wrenched his confusion tighter in place.
