Shadowy... it's mine!!

MeoMeo smiled, having been orphaned herself, thanks to the cruelty of the king, she understood. She patted the older teens' shoulder "It's okay, my own parents died defending me, from the king..." she spat the word as if it were a curse.

"I... I killed my father..." Akiata whispered softly as if she would die if she spoke them too loudly. She looked at MeoMeo, tears welling up in her eyes.

[<[(:Nyusu:)]>]

MeoMeo hung her head, looking down at the bundle she had brought. That was a rather drastic statement.... She then looked at the dark eyes of the 17-year-old. A smile arose. "I'm sure you had a good reason," she stated happily.

[Angel of Retribution]

Akiata looked into her eyes sadly. "He-He abused me after my mother d-died in child-birth..." she stated flatly, tears whelling over the rims of her eyes now. "And then... that night in the alley..." She turned away. She couldn't speak about it anymore.

MeoMeo sighed and gave her a small hug. That poor girl.... that's older than me... she thought. Then the clamp of Violetas white boots. "Hey... ever heard of a lady named Flora Woods?" she said. MeoMeo perked up. "Flora? Why?" "She just... oh... well... sent us a message, we gotta get going, let's stop by the mill first though," MeoMeo stood up and looked down at Akiata "What about her?" "She'll come, we need more members anyway," "Yea!!" MeoMeo grabbed the girls arm and tried dragging her up.

[Angel of Retribution]

Akiata nodded and shifted into Violeta's shadow. Her own head appeared, smiled weakly at Violeta, then disappeared as Violeta's shadow. "I-I'll go...," she said quietly to Violeta.

Violeta nodded and started walking towards the door. MeoMeo skipped after her, they walked out the door. ***continued at rest***
