Keep me, Protect me, NEVER betray me...

[Maril Mazmo]

"Yup. I think we should get a move on to the outside world quickly,"said Maril quickly. He suddenly noticed the many other peopple sitting in the tavern. He quickly walked out with Evee.,"So......why did you turn back? I thought you had places to go."

[Evee~Natalia]

Evee's smile faded to a faint smile before she answered him. "I, knew that if I didn't come back, I would be making the worst mistake in my life....It was more like I felt it inside me." She said looking up at him, hoping he could understand.

She started again, "My real suprise was when you kissed me back...Hm, I guess I didn't think you felt the same way that I do about you..." She said slightly turning away from him but enough to look back up at him.

[Maril Mazmo]

"Now why would you be making the worst mistake of your life? I'd have found where you lived anyways. I have my ways,"said Maril with a smile,"Yes. I too felt different about you. You are different from other people in some ways...."

Maril then said,"Well to tell you the truth, I haven't kissed anyone before. But I felt I just couldn't hold back. It was like a feeling that was trying to escape from the inside of my body."

[Evee~Natalia]

Evee put on a full smile again then felt a sense of happiness. "I feel like you've lifted off tons of weight from my shoulders just knowing this, we have some kind of...Bond, I feel it you know? It's hard to explain though..." She said looking down at the ground at the thought.

Evee had yard work, house work, and errands to run sure, but she wanted all the time she could have with him. "If I walk away from you, don't hesitate to stop me...It's just my nature to run away from my problems sometimes..." Evee said turning away from him completely. She hoped he would understand that, she only does it because she feels like the whole world is watching her embarrassment.

[Maril Mazmo]

"That's alright. Everyone needs their own room to live. I think I'll be off then,"said Maril with a smile. He still couldn't forget had she had kissed him. The feeling was kind of glued to his soul and he hoped it would remain there.

[Evee~Natalia]

"And so shall I, I'll see you around...Soon if you're lucky." She said with a grin as she started to walk away from him. She really did want to see him sooner than they probably would. It's just the feeling she gets when she was around him....Their kiss today was something she branded on her brain so that it would stay there forever and never heal so that the memory will always contain it's freshness.

When she'd think about that moment, it would seem like the very first time all over again. Evee would feel it, taste it, smell the sweet smell of Maril, And hear the chater around the Tavern once she ran back inside and kissed him...All that she would cherish forever. About two weeks later, Evee found herself back at the Tavern. She came to buy a bottle of honey milk for herself because some of the children around her neighborhood wanted some and from what she knew, children weren't allowed in the Tavern.

She came inside dressed warmly but to an extent, she wore a brown bear fur around her that she'd had for some time now and she put on her warmest footwear.
Evee went up to the bar and asked the bartender, "May I have a bottle of honey milk please?" She stood there waiting patiently for her milk.

[Oracio Kovou]

Oracio was searching for the girl he saw in the banquet hall the other night, he had been looking for her all day. There was a few places he hadn't checked yet. But he came across the Tavern and decided he would look here.
Oracio came inside the Tavern, hood still on his head and all. As he observed the place before taking any action, he spotted his target up at the bar.

It looked like she was waiting for something. 'It's her...' He thought to himself. Oracio walked up to the bar casually, making sure that he wouldn't draw too much attention to himself. He came and stood next to the young girl then looked over at her, hiding most of his face behind his hood. He grimmed her, he even hated the fact that he admired her. Oracio wished he could abandon his human emotions.

Oracio was born into a family of assassins. It didn't matter how old you were, you had the skills to take someone out so you would have no choice to cary out your orders. His assignment he got when he was about eight years old, required him to take out the royal family of Nefaria, including their daughter. But that day, the daughter had been taken to saftey. Oracio had gotten word of her whereabouts and found himself here.

Oracio had no grudges against anyone, this was merely his job. He didn't know if this girl was the one he was looking for, but if she tells him what he wants to hear as proof. Then he would surely, finish his job. "Hello miss," Oracio awaited her reply.

[Evee~Natalia]

Evee almost jumped, his voice had startled her. She looked over at the man showing no emotion. " Hi..." She really had nothing to say to him, all she wanted was her milk so that she could get back home and get it warmed up. There was nothing like a warm drink right now since the outside was cold. Evee turned her attention back toward the bar trying to avoid any awkward moments.

She rested her head on her hand which was propped up on the bar, her hair dangled down and brushed against her arm that supported her head.

[Oracio Kovou]

Oracio wasn't offended at all that the girl showed him little intrest. It's to be expected after what he saw in the Banquet hall. To get things moving along, Oracio decided to ask the question that would surely expose her, but he woud have to put soe of his personal info out first to give her a sense of security. He didn't know if it would work but it was worth a try.

"I'm Oracio Kovou of Gattacal, who might you be lovely girl?" He was sure flattery would get him somewhere, why wouldn't it? Oracio was nearly ready to shout in joy he was so certain this would work.

[Evee~Natalia]

Evee didn't want to be rude to him, so she replied. "I am Evee Natalia of Nefaria. Sorry I'm being such a jerk, I'm just tired...Or maybe I just miss someone...." She said a little sadly, she was missing Maril already.

The last time she saw him was 2 weeks ago, and here she is again. Evee knew the man next to her wouldn't nderstand where she was coming from. But then she had to wonder, why was this man taking such a sudden interest in her?

[Oracio Kovou]

'This is her!' Oracio thought to himself, "It's ok...I'm going to make sure that you never have to worry about anything again...You'll be, gone..." He said with a villanous grin.

He wasn't going to give her a chance to call for help, or attack him. So Oracio pulled out one of his dagger's secretly and put it to Evee's side. He gave her a threatening glare. "I know you've been looking for me Evee, I've been looking for you just the same. With the same intentions and all...Now, we're going outside and you will go without making a scene. Once we're outside I'm taking you away from here...And do you know what I'll do next? I'm going to slit your pretty little throat and there will be nothing you can do about it," He whispered to her. "No one's here to save you, not even your little 'pretty boy'. And I bet he promised you that he would be huh? *laughs* Such a shame really, Finding your body will be all he'll have to remember you. I have no quarrels with you, this is merely my job left unfinished."

Oracio was sure this plan was fool proof, no one would be dumb enough to interfere anyway. If they did, they had better think about Evee's life first.

[Evee~Natalia]

Evee was in a terrible situation, Maril wasn't there....She didn't know how far away he could be either.But she knew he wouldn't let her die. "He'll come, I know he will. And when he does, it's over for you." She might have made Oracio even angrier but she wanted to let him know that he was making a mistake he'd regret.

[Maril Mazmo]

Maril was trying to find Evee. He hadn't seen her for a while. He was quite anxious wondering where she was. He couldn't find her. Everywhere he went, she wasn't there. He felt something was wrong. Finally he saw her in a very uncomfortable position. He was wearing a cloak on his body and his face was not covered but could not been seen due to the darkness of the cloak.

He heard the last words of Evee. But he knew she could not see him. he appproached the man, his head in the darkness of the cloak and said,"Perhaps you should leave the girl alone. It is not nice to place a dagger on a girl's throat especcially when I'm around." Marim was standing behind the man and he waited hi hands on the hilt of his mace.

[Evee~Natalia]

"Maril!" Evee yelled to him, she was so relieved that he came to save her. She knew he would. She had been in bad situation before, but none like this. Her heart was pounding violently as her mind went through the "what if's"

Evee ws carefull not to move, she didn't want to get herself stabbed or get killed. Though Maril had come to save her, she didn't want to put his life in danger either. This Oracio was clearly not backing down from his job.

[Maril Mazmo]

"Put the dagger down or would you rather get struck by my mace,"said Marim to Oracio. He was angry. Losing people he cared for was becoming something common but he would not let that happen again. He had promised himself that....of course. Now here was another problem, he was facing and this one was quite complex. He continued,"Put it down unless you want to die today,"as Maril removed his mace slowly.
