[align=center]Adio was guided to the chambers in which he'd sleep for the night,seeing Reita his real mouth cracked a small smile underneath the mask..
He looked up at Ether who seemed to be rather determined to get him out of the form,he spoke softly too so he wouldnt wake Reita.


"...Im using this form to much,it's starting to scare me...if what I was told was true?...things will..uh..Happen...I've got to stop taking this form but..it's the only form I can actually get my body to fight in...I didn't even shift over this time...when I saw Reita the way he was..I'll have to pull the mask off my face again...I only did it one other time..I can't do it in here,it'll wake Reita no matter what I do to muffle my voice...im sorry to be keeping you up..really I am..Is there somewhere I can go though...just so I can get the mask off?...I can get back here you wont have to trouble yourself.''




Already as tired as he was,he had began to ramble slightly his sentences never-ending almost making sure he wouldn't say the wrong thing..As she placed her hand on his chest he'd twitch the feeling sent all over his body like little impulses or spasms,it almost felt pretty nice but it still unsettled him.[/align]

Ether nodded. "We can go to the training room. It's sound proof in there." She whispered. She removed her hand from his chest and held out her hand to help Adio out of bed. "It's just down the hall."

She tilted her head curiously. "If you don't mind me asking, what sort of creature is this form supposed to be?"

[align=center]Adio grabbed Ether's hand as she helped him out of the bed he still careful not to wake Reita.


"...Alright thank you.''



At her question he'd gesture for them to go outside the room into the hall,he'd close the door behind them as he looked down at her,being this tall was so awkward sometimes.


"A hollow has no 'real' form..it's mask,like mine holds the person's real features behind it until it's killed itself..The body of the hollow when it's fully produced can't be seen by normal people that are about on a day to day basis but the 'beast' can interact with still living people on it's own accord and even kill them if they deam it for a good reason,or some of them dont have reasons...''


He looked off to the side.


"A hollow beast came to me one night,it was a few days after I thought I had killed the first person I had ever loved in my eternity..Her name was Amina Jayde..One night while I was playing my violin in my parent's room for their anniversary..My father's spirit showed itself to me but for some reason..he'd become malevolant over the years of his death..he'd never been a bad person always caring and compasionate thats why I saught him as more of a motherly figure then the woman who gave birth to me who was more into working,being out in the world then some wives who mearly stuck to housework,it's something common back then for woman to be like that..but she chose differently so my father took up where she left off even though he still did what any male would do..But that night he played on my emotions telling me if I did everything I was supposed to,he'd bring mother back and he'd tell me how to resurrect them..inking Id have the two most wonderful people back in my life ..I was so naive to what he had me doing,he told me to put on his old ring,the bigger wider kinds some males wore for a sort of decoration,we wern't a poor family so when we could we'd go to outings,mother and father always dressing lavishly for the theater and such..The ring had been given to him by a composer friend of his after my father helped him restore the outdoor theater,not the movie kinds humans have now but it was for literally performing on,the stage is still there...but when I put it on,his spirit merged with the ring,and with his spirit being in such a close connection with my body he took it over time and time again..never interfering with my own personality but using the actions to do such bad things...He made me lure all the adults out of the village..it was a special ability my parent's and me had with our instruments,we could enslave minds..he made me do it for a wrong cause...the adults walked out of the village leaving their kids behind...they kept walking until they died...bodies everywhere decomposing in the forest..he picked one child out of the many for me to take as my own,Adriano..who hung on my every word,the children hadnt been brainwashed...alot of them ran off after their parents...dying too but Adriano stayed with me when I asked him..he started calling me father...and after my attempted suicide even took to looking after my garden and manor until i came back..but when I did,he was gone too along with Amina..who just before my suicide I thought I killed when I was forced to attack her and her friend...when I attempted my suicide the violin's curse on my body slowly wore out over time...the stone falling off my body,and dissolving from my insides...I was back,when I didn't want to be...when the hollow beast came,I was asking for it the words out of my own mouth..."I don't want to care anymore.''...It severed my ties with the world of the living and undead by taking my own heart...devouring it..it's massive body had no real detail except for the few colored markings like something on an animal but this was ..had been human...I never saw behind it's mask like many havent..All i remember was this imense feeling of pain....like I was suffocating when I knew my heart held no beat since the day I was born....then I blacked out...I waked up two days later looking like this and I ended up having to pull my mask off...ripped half of my skin off my face,I could see my jaw and teeth moving with my screams..where my healing abilities would have picked up took nearly two and a half hours to heal...when I got the mask off..this form went away I heard laughing but it was my own,and I knew I wasn't laughing but it still was there in the room...I guess,over time the hollow side of me might consume me...I dont know if the form will as well or just the demeanor but..it scares me...every time I go in this form it starts getting easier...it starts making me feel so pointless...so empty..And after all this had happened..I learned that Amina had faked her death...''



He shook his head his right hand resting against the forehead of the mask before he'd gesture for her to lead him to the training room.



"...Let's just get this over with.''[/align]

Ether walked with him, listening attentively. She sighed softly.

"Sometimes love makes us do crazy things and heartbreak isn't much better. I'm sorry that you had to go through all of that. I remember the first time someone broke my heart. I ran away. This is how I got here." She shook her head.

She stood outside the door of the training room, listening to see if anyone was in there. The room was empty. She opened the door and the scenery of the room changed from being a forest to being a plain white room. The walls shifted and the pillars shifted back to what they once were. Plain white walls, plain white pillars on a brown floor. Various weapons lined the walls.

Ether tilted her head. "Do you want me to leave you alone?"

"Pretty bad when the person you loved more then anything in your life,never loved you back and only stuck around because she pitied you...then fakes her death to get you to kill yourself..''

Adio entered into the room with ether watching the forest disappear into a plain white room..He blinked lightly turning to face her a moment when she asked if she should leave.


"I wont force you to go,stay if you want it's all up to you..I might need your assistance if my skin decided to part from various spots on my face again though..''


He gave a grim short laugh as he'd walk into the middle of the room sitting down.


"Don't come toward me when I start pulling it off,I don't even trust myself in that state.''


shaking hands reached up as he slid his fingers underneath the thin crease of his mask where the bone material met flesh..Hands tensed as he started to force the mask off,he gasping slightly small pops and cracks heard and some energies that had been left  over could be seen like static against the mask and Adio's hands it was almost like he was a sponge himself for negative energy...Adio would slowly start forcing the mask off more,he becoming furiously dizzy a sharp pain issuing causing his hands to falter before he'd pull harder the pain becoming worse skin starting to stretch and pull dangerously from the mask litarlly being attached to parts of his facial skin..As the first bit of flesh ripped off Adio screamed his eyes tearing up his breathing becoming faster in his efforts to get the mask off his face even in such a great deal of pain..Pulling harder he felt some flesh rip off the side of his cheek by his jaw,his bone suddenly exposed to open air stung blood starting to run down his face some of it getting into his eyes he inhaling a small bit caused him to cough gasping almost to grab more air into his lungs before his breath faltered some flesh being ripped off just below his hairline..a black light seemed to issue from the mask nearly taking out any light within the room before it would fade away Adio sitting there the mask slowly disintegrating his eyes wide,face bloody the jaw bone and teeth on the right side of his face still seeable from the worst wound he had his body seemingly in a mild state of shock,only having done this one time before like he had told her..His body felt numb from the pain and even more tired as before..his body slowly seemed to loose balance from sitting up as he fell to the side,the bone material shattering on contact with the floor,his real clothing and regular body underneath it....Even with him having fallen over it seemed he still had a small bit of consciousness left,his eyes moving trying to take in where he was again almost pleading in pain,the blood running into them from his wounds staining his skin,burning his eyes..[/align]

Ether watched the whole process with no expression on her face. It wasn't until the mask was off his face when Ether finally reacted. She waited until he fell to the floor. Ether knelt down next to him and ran a hand through his hair. She wiggled her fingers in front of his eyes. This was probably more annoying than painful. In between her fingers, a small vial of what appeared to be blood appeared in her fingers.

"Open." She gently moved her hand towards Adio's mouth.

"This is a potion that will help with the pain and the healing. It won't heal you completely, but it will help you heal." She rose an eyebrow. "It's Blood from a Vivamancer. Like Crae. She's one of those."

Ether ran a hand along one of her ears. "Open up." She said again.

[align=center]It was like someone turning on and off a light,things going blurry,refocusing and for short moments entirely black..

"This is a potion that will help with the pain and the healing. It won't heal you completely, but it will help you heal." She rose an eyebrow. "It's Blood from a Vivamancer. Like Crae. She's one of those."


Eyes focused again like the lenses of a camera he couldn't move his arms he felt weighted down,his body having already started going back to normal,skin tingled at Ether's touch as she ran her fingers near his ear..Adio's body relaxed slightly.


"Open up."


Adio could feel the air stinging against the exposed bone of his jaw as he opened his mouth the best he could..Everything looked weird in this state of being for Adio,some things in focus,the others blurred out the sounds crisp yet muffled..Small pops and cracks could be heard as bones readjusted to their normal spots his clothing fitting better now as his skeletal structure was brought back to it's normal state..[/align]

Ether smiled. "One more satsified customer." She said as she poured the blood down his throat. Ether dumped the whole bottle into his mouth, as he swallowed. Once he stopped swallowing the liquid, she stood up and capped the bottle.

Ether took two steps back and bowed her head.

"I hope you get better. I think Reita needs you now." She said softly with a smile. "He really loves you, and I know that you really love him. I can see it. Like when Vaile says that he loves me. He really does love me. And I love him."

Ether was swaying back and forth.

[align=center]Adio felt the liquid run down his throat as he swallowed coughing lightly it was like someone through a heating blanket on him then flashed him in the face with a camera bulb,pretty awkward to say the least but well,best way to explain it..As she stepped away speaking of his love and her own he sat up slowly,everything coming into clearer perception,his voice alittle ruff.



"He's everything to me,he's the only way to really understand happiness...without him id be a empty shell...''


He said softly his eyes staring at the floor looking at all the blood that had come from him on the floor.


"...I don't remember you mentioning Crae...you know her?''


Crae had been the first real friend Adio had ever had,so he cared for her immensely on such a level..He set his hand on the floor some of his jaw still exposed


"I hope you get better. I think Reita needs you now."



"Hmn..it's something I did to myself...I can't ask for much when I wished it on myself long ago...I tied up the loose ends with Amina,she's got a new life..heh.''


He looked down a slightly akward smile on his face.



"Doesnt remember anything about me,or anything that happened between us..she thinks she's an entirly diffrent person..''


The smile turned back into the calm understanding look he seemed to always have..he walked to Ether his steps slow,not wanting to exert his body so quickly..He lent kissing her on the cheek,it rather awkward feeling for him but he figured she deserved a thank you after all of this of course..



"I didn't think he'd be up yet...how long have I taken?''


He watched her sway back and forth blinking lightly.

"Um heh,could you take me back to the room..after all of this I guess I don't remember where you lead me from...typical guy right? heh.''


He giggled...The last bit of skin starting to cover up the exposed jaw bone.[/align]

Ether pursed her lips shut for a moment before speaking. She sighed. "Yes, I know Crae. I met her when her husband came to try to enslave our people. She's such a nice person. It's too bad  that her husband is not so nice." Ether shook her head slowly.

"He's probably not awake, but it is nice to have someone next to you while you sleep. Especially if you're recovering from something." Ether winked, then bowed her head. "I should leave. I need to go see my kids..and all. Make sure that everything's all right with them. Want me to escort you back to your room?"

She rose an eyebrow and waited for a response.

[align=center]Adio nodded he was glad to some degree Reita wasnt up yet,he didn't want to really explain why he had been in the training room ripping off his mask and fucking his face up exactly..


"Yes please,I can't remember where you lead me from,sorry typical guy right?''


He smirked lightly.


"Im sorry Crae's husband did such a bad thing.''

She laughed. "Well, it's all right. That was the only time that this world pulled together. It was to kick the outsiders off our world. And it worked! We're free and they're gone. Too bad Crae had to go. I kind of miss her. Oh well. Let's go!"

Ether led Adio out of the training room and into the hallway. "And it's not just a guy thing. It's so easy to get lost in this castle. Even I get lost sometimes. Can you believe that? Calder blames it on the drugs..the mushrooms that I love so dearly. Ha! He doesn't know. He's never tried them."

[align=center]Adio laughed gently following her from the room back to his and Reita's quarters.

"It is a very big place indeed,and mushrooms...or er..shrooms the humans call them im sure,a lot of them at some of the concerts we had...it was like everyone couldn't stop laughing..It was rather amusing watching them all act like they did.''

He said smiling halfly before they'd reach the door to Adio's room..he'd turn looking at Ether before entering.


"Thanks again..really,you've been a help to us both..I don't know how I could repay you..maybe Ill swipe some shrooms from a human at the concert next time and send them to you?''


He laughed with a wink and entered into his room closing the door quietly behind him..He sighed softly shifting his shoulders pulling off his shirt he only in his shorts now he'd climb into the bed with Reita turning he'd look at Reita watching him sleep a smile creeping along his lips before he'd close his eyes drifting asleep.[/align]

Reita was still asleep when Adio entered the room. He woke up at some point, early the next evening. He sat up slowly, then rubbed his eyes. He had to remember where he was that moment, then once it hit him, he glanced around.

"Oh, my God. How long have we been here? Adio.." He pressed his hand against Adio's back and shook him awake.

Reita appeared panicked. He slowly forced himself to calm down. His eyes closed and he laid back down.

[align=center]It had been a short night for Adio as he'd guess it would be..He felt Reita's hands against his back shaking him awake..His eyes opening he'd reach back grasping the wrist of one of Reita's hands.


"...Lower..''


He giggled..


"But really,dont please my back is sore.''

He turned sitting up.

"Whats wrong?''

He blinked looking at him his eyes slightly bloodshot.[/align]
