Mary looked at the dolls surprised that he'd gone and made them, smirking a little at the chosen expressions, "They'll certainly apprecciate the effort," she murmured when he explained why he made them. Raina might not understand the point, but Eryn would be thrilled to see something made for him. She looked at him when he mentioned her gift, and tilted her head when he mentioned being the first person to be his friend. She smiled softly and nodded as he told her to keep it with her at all times. She started to look at his hand when he pulled it out of his sleeve, but her eyes went wide as he kissed her. Her face was bright red as he backed away, her eyes still wide as her mind was trying to catch up with what just happened, When he closed the door, she put her fingers to her lips, still bright red in the face. That was the first time she'd ever been kissed, and she was thrown for a loop. "Mary, let's go!" Raina called from the end of the hall. Mary looked towards her then back towards the door, "R-right," somehow leaving felt cruel right now. She swallowed, turning and forcing herself to hurry down the hall. They had to do this and she was the only one who could contact Nero, the only one who could really get rid of Sybil. She doubled back, though, wondering why that smile had been so sad, but Raina grabbed her arm and pulled her away. It wasn't fair. Why would he depart that way, knowing she couldn't stay and figure out why? She sighed, glancing back at the inn again once they were outside on their way. When she got back, she was going to make him answer those questions. Ovorion sent one of the two after them, giving him commands in their native tongue before getting back on his horse. He and his second man started on towards the next town, urging their horses forward at a break neck speed, wanting to waist no time. Ovorion felt that Sola's direction was too precise. She was trying to lure them away from something, which meant his target had to be in the other direction and he probably didn't have much time. Alessea and Mary were unique with their mental abilities and they were adversaries to be feared and hated. They could crush you with sheer will alone or warn their allies of your prescense. [i]Wake up![/i] a voice in Mera's head jolted her awake [i]Danger is coming! You must flee![/i] "Mother?" Mera looked around groggily, before shaking her head, [i]What do you mean?[/i] Now was not the time to point out she was almost sure her mother was dead or dying. [i]Ovorion. Something happened, [u]he's[/u] dead and Ovorion's looking for the murderers, which he is under the impression is you.[/i] "Shit," Mera muttered, looking towards Larel and Hotaru. There was no time to wake them and explain and deal with unwilling backseat drivers. She turned to the window, opened it and jumped out, sinking in to the ground below. She could get away for now and the two of them would be safe from her uncle. None of them were up to the task of another pain in the ass at the moment. Though she hadn't been conscious she was aware her siblings were already gone, meaning by the time Ovorion reached the village there would be no gypsies to speak of.
