*knockknockknockon the door*
Thrax: Huh? *finishes up then answers the door*
Drix: *is standing there* Evening Thrax.
Thrax: *leans against the frame* Why the sudden visit Drixenol?
Drix: How’s Ozzy feeling?
Thrax: He's still a bit under the weather but he hopefully will be back on his feet by tomorrow.
Drix: that's good. How are you doing?
Thrax: Could be better. I have a lot on my plate at the minute.
Drix: Well why don't I help you out around here. I assume Ozzy's asleep?
Thrax: He is but I already have the place cleaned up.
Drix:*nods* I brought some tea. would you like some?
Thrax: *slowly nods and invites him in*
Drix; Are you aright?
Thrax: Just a little on edge at the minute.
Drix: *makes some tea* I can understand that.
Thrax: Even when things seems calm something always pops up at unexpected times.
Drix: Well hopefully this one is more pleasant. *smiles and brings out a tray of cookies* ^_^
Thrax: There been more than one. *lifts one of the cups in his shaken hands*
Drix: Oh?
Thrax: *swallows* Has Ozzy explained a few things to you?
Drix: like what?
Thrax: *sighs, drinking the tea* Not after the trail of our attackers Ozzy received a letter from his half-siblings.
Drix: Ahh yes he mentioned that.
Thrax: He told me about what they had gone through and I've recently found out that his viral
brothers and sisters along with their families are struggling to survive.
Drix: *nods* I'd like to help them
Thrax: So would I but times are difficult and there's no chance of anyone besides us showing them sympathy. *takes a small sips of tea*
Drix: Don't be so sure of that.
Thrax: I'm not holding my breath. The other day I saw one of Ozzy's nephews being chased just because he had stole food for his family.
Drix: *nods*
Thrax: He managed to escape but Frank just imagining what they have to go through just to survive. *sets the half empty cup down then clenches his shaken hands*
Drix: *reaches over to gently squeeze Thrax's hand*
Thrax: And that's just the tip of the iceberg. *hangs his head and bites his lip*
Drix: *gently squeezes his hand and rubs his arm*
Thrax: *doesn't look up at him* It's my mother, she's- *swallows as he hesitates*
Drix: Is she unwell?
Thrax: *shakes his head, tears starting to form* No, she's- she's- *his entire body start to shake* She's PREGNANT. *buries his face in his hands*
Drix: *blinks a little and then reaches under Thrax's chin, gently lifting his head*
Thrax: *his tears fall freely, outlining the dark circles under his eyes*
Drix: *drags a thumb gently under his eye and wipes his tears then gather's the virus close to him, holding him*
Thrax: *leans against him* Even though she had hoped for this it's causing her nothing but fear for her.
Drix: *starts to rub his back*
Thrax: *pulls away from him, getting to his feet and walks to the window* Torment, sorrow, lose and pain. *leans against the window plane* That's all we viruses go through. Maybe it would have been better if we had left this city long ago.
Drix: I for one am glad you stayed.
Thrax: You and Ozzy are the only ones. The others are doubtful.
Drix: The chief feels similarly... as does Leah... quite frankly I think Frank would be less healthy right now if it weren’t for you
Thrax: Even so things are still bad for our family and with mother in her condition the fear has just risen.
Drix: *places a hand on his shoulder* Things will calm down soon.
Thrax: Hopefully. If the Chief or Leah can inform the mayor of this maybe we could get some peace.
Drix: *nods* We can see what we can do.
Thrax: *smiles* Thanks, maybe we can get some rest when it is completely sorted.
Drix: *nods and hugs him once more*
Thrax: *replies to it* Thank you, Drix. I don't know what we'd do without you.
Drix: *hugs him a little tighter* What are friends for?
Thrax: *smiles at him* Please Drix try and sort this out as soon as possible. Our family is in need this city's acceptance and we just want our peace.
Drix: *nods* I will. I promise.
Thrax: *smiles, wiping the tears from his eyes* Thank you, my friend.
Drix: *smiles back at him and squeezes his shoulder*
Thrax: *places his hand on Drix's* We all appreciate your help Drix, FPD or not.
Drix: *smiles*
Thrax: *smiles back* If things do go our way, our clan can finally stop living in fear and we can be able to raise our families in peace
Drix: *nods, smiling reassuringly*
Thrax: *gives him a grateful bow then slowly heads upstairs to check on his children*
*both are still fast asleep*
Drix: *follows him*
Thrax: *softly smiles and sighs with relief that they are sleeping peacefully*
Drix:* looks in* Who’s' that? *gestures to the young girl*
Thrax: *shudders in surprise, quickly closing the door then grabs Drix before flaring his fore-claw up and baring his fangs* Not a word out of you. *snarls*
Drix: *starts* I... what?
Thrax: *hisses* You dare tell anyone about my little jewel, it'll be the last thing you do.
Drix: *nods* Don't worry. I will do nothing to endanger her.
Thrax: *realises him* Good.
Drix: So who is she?
Thrax: Her name is Northstar and she's from the 'outside' world.
Drix: So what is she?
Thrax: Hard to explain Drix and you wouldn't believe me at least until you saw it with you own eyes.
Drix: *nods* how old is she?
Thrax: Never really asked her. She seems to have the appearance of an eleven year old but she could younger as far as I know.
Drix: Well if you ever need a babysitter and your parents arn't available... *smiles*(
Thrax: *smiles, nodding* Thank you.
Drix: And I promise... I will tell no one about her.
Thrax: Thank you. My parents already know of her but she won't be introduced to the rest of the clan until she is ready.
Drix: *nods* Can I take a closer look at her?
Thrax: *hesitates slightly* If I do please don't startle her.
Drix: *nods* I'll be careful.
Thrax: Ok. *gently opens the door and quietly enters*
Drix: *floats in the room and looks at the sleeping cell and child*
Thrax: *kneels next to his sleeping son and daughter, softly smiling* My angels.
Northstar: *cuddles into the pillow a little as Ozzy's arm tightens around her, cooing*
Drix: *smiles softly and looks to Thrax*
Thrax: *smiles back then turns back to his children* Our clan's just keeps getting bigger.
Drix: *nods and smiles* She looks so delicate.
Thrax: *nods* She was timid at first but now she's just adventurous.
Drix: Oh?
Thrax: *nods* She was frightened of us when we found her but in time she grew to love us. Now she is my daughter and Ozzy's little sister. *softly strokes her hair*
Drix: Well... congratulations daddy. *smiles*
Thrax: *goes red in the face* Still getting use to others saying that. *shakes it off*
Drix: *smiles*
Thrax: *smiles* Life just gives us more- *he cuts off suddenly*
Drix: *looks at him*
*The room suddenly goes cold as a faint humming is heard*
Drix: Thrax?
Thrax: *smiles, whispers* It's her.
Drix: Who?
Thrax: Shh.
*The humming becomes louder as a white figure appears by the door*
Drix: *looks over* Wh-what is that?
Thrax: *snaps at him* Quiet. Let her be.
Drix: *looks over at the figure*
*The white figure slowly walks to the bed still humming the tune. She looks down at the sleeping children and smiles beneath her hood then gently sits next to them*
Drix: *watches*
Northstar: *snuggles into the pillow starting to stir, thumb in her mouth*
*The woman lightly lays her hand on Northstar's cheek then with the other softly strokes Ozzy's hair.*
Thrax: *back off a bit, giving her some room*
Drix: *stands transfixed as he watches the scene*
Northstar: *starts to stir and respond to the gentle hand on her cheek*
Ozzy: *also responds cuddling and letting out a soft content sound associated with being loved*
Thrax: *smiles at them before turning to the woman*
*The woman finishes the soft melody before she faces Thrax and removes her hood, revealing her beautiful blue eyes*
Drix: *feels a blush come to his face as he looks at her... she's stunningly beautiful*
Thrax: *approaches the young woman, wrapping his arms round her waist and kisses her on her pale lips*
*The young spirit wraps her owns arms round Thrax's neck and pulls him deeper into the kiss*
Drix:*softly* Thrax.. is she..
Thrax: *opens his eye and smirks slightly but doesn't brake the kiss*
Drix: *kind of stands there unsure what to say*
*The two separate and smile at each other as they spoke in union* Te amo ahora y por siempre. Nuestros corazones se encenderĂ¡n como uno.
Drix: *remains quiet and gives them their privacy*
Northstar: *rubs her eyes and starts to open her eyes*
*They purr softly and slowly begin to dance with each other forgetting that they are being watched*
Northstar: *yawns a lil* daddy?
Thrax: *suddenly turns to her and his wife backs off quickly*
Northstar: *continues to rub her eyes*
Thrax: *slowly kneels next to her while Eve backs into the corner of the room*
Northstar: * yawns a little* mmm... daddy... *closes her eyes and goes back to sleep*
*Both Thrax and Eve sigh with relief as Thrax sits next to Northstar and Eve with Ozzy, both smiling proudly at their children*
Northstar: *nuzzles into the pillow*
Thrax: *lightly strokes her hair*
Northstar: *starts to open her eyes again*
Eve:*backs away from the bed slightly*
Northstar: *after a brief yawn her eyes focus on her*
Eve: *places her hands over her heart, keeping her eyes on the girl*
Northstar: *lets out a soft mewling sound and looks up at her, rubbing her sleepy eyes*
*Thrax and Eve both keep close to each other with their hands entwined*
Eve: *slowly approaches Northstar, her long hair draped over her shoulders*
Northstar: *slips her thumb in her mouth as she looks at the female, tilting her head as her other hand reaches out*
Eve: *kneels in front of her take Northstar's out stretched hand in her ghostly ones*
Northstar: *tilts her head a little and mewls*
Eve: *softly smiles at her*
Northstar: *tilts her head a little* who are you?
Thrax: *stands behind Eve* Don't you recognise her honey?
Northstar: *tilts her head a little and looks up at her, continuing to stare for some time before whispering softly * Mommy?
Eve: *smiles at her* Yes, my child. *takes Northstar into her arms*
Drix: *has to wipe a tear from his eye and smiles as he watches them*
Northstar: *nuzzles sleepily into her chest*
Eve: *kisses her forehead and begins to softly sing the tune she had sang to her our children*
Northstar: *drifts back to sleep softly cooing*
Eve: *gently lays her back on the bed and covers her and Ozzy* Sleep well, my babies. *kisses both their foreheads*
Ozzy: mm.. *nuzzles, smiling in his sleep and seeming to feel much better*
Eve: *gets up from the bed and kisses Thrax* Til we meet again, my love. *with that she vanishes*
Thrax: *collapse on the floor in a daze*
Drix: *puts a hand on his back* Thrax? Are you ok?
Thrax: *shakes out of his daze* Yeah that always happens when I'm with her. Living or other wise.
Drix: *smiles* it must feel good to see her
Thrax: *smiles* At least I know she's still with me.
Drix: *smiles back and wipes a tear from his eye*
Thrax: *shakenly gets to his feet* Thanks for dropping by Drix.
Drix: * helps him up* No problem. call me if you need me ok?
Thrax: *nods* And contact me when everything has been sorted with this city. *looks down at his sleeping children*
Drix: I will.
Thrax: *smiles* Thank you, my friend. Goodnight,
Drix: goodnight Thrax. *leaves for home*
Thrax: *sits next to bed, allowing his body to rest against it*
