Scared? No!! Of course not!

...

Well... Maybe just a little bit.

Ok! Lily was scared! For a moment, she almost lost her breath when he saw Lady Leaza. She didn't expect to see her there... Her relationship with her was... complicated...

It wasn't like Lily was trying to be rude or anything... it was just that out of everyone Lily expected to see there, Lady Leaza surely wasn't one of them and honestly, she was exactly the opposite from Lily. Lily wouldn't be surprised if she tried to get her because Lily saved so many people and animals before, taking them from her. Maybe it would be best if she remained hidden, but Lady Leaza had obviously noticed that there was someone observing them due to Lily's exclamation...

Hiding would do no good. Especially not with what was happening right now. Besides that... she wasn't [i]that[/I] scared. Only a little but surely she wouldn't let Lady Leaza know that! As she peeked around the tree to talk to her, she was surprised when she didn't see anyone there besides Crow. But when she turned her head again, much to her dismay, Lady Leaza was right behind her. Lily's heart almost skipped a beat, but she endured and instead of showing her reaction, she simply looked at Lady Leaza almost if she was confronting her. But as much as Lily wanted to show her that she wasn't afraid from her, the dark inside her cowl, the lifeless sensation was too much for a fairy such as Lily, who was deeply connected with magic and life.

It wasn't exactly fear, desperation, disgust not even repulse... While Lily surely felt a certain repulse for Lady Leaza due to her nature as an avatar of death and because she couldn't understand her nature, being completely the opposite from hers, what Lily truly felt when she nearby Lady Leaza couldn't be described by none of those words. It was like two magnets repelling themselves. Lily simply couldn't stand being too close from her. It was almost like Lady Leaza's aura was... sucking Lily's life or something like that. Lily herself didn't knew how to put it in words, but she didn't liked Lady Leaza. Even though it wasn't something personal, she still couldn't help but feel that way... Maybe it was the destiny telling her that an avatar of death and one of life should never get too close...

[color=8882be]"Hello, darling..."[/color] Lily heard Lady Leaza saying, as she greeted her with a courtesy bow.

[color=fff79a]"I'm not afraid of you!"[/color] Lily said, showing Lady Leaza her tongue with a grimace before she flew away to where Crow was.

While it was obvious that Lily was on the defensive regarding Lady Leaza, other than the air of confrontation in her voice, if Lady Leaza paid enough attention, she would be able to feel at least part of how Lily felt due to her actions.

[color=8882be]"We just never do get the proper opportunity to talk, now do we...? Let's be away from here then shall we, Ms. Lily? Please do join us yonder to gather and palaver. For you never know what else may slip out from the shadows, darling..."[/color] Lily heard her saying as she went towards Crow.

[color=fff79a]"An avatar of death and one of life. It's simply not meant to be."[/color]
[color=fff79a]"Our natures are too different."[/color] Lily said while still maintaining a safe distance from her, going to where Crow was as well.

But it was just at that moment that Lily realized what Lady Leaza meant by 'Obsidian Idol'... Looking up, she finally saw Lady Gobbledygook herself encased into a shell of pure obsidian with a hole where her heart should be. That vision left Lily in shock. Maybe even more than when she saw Lady Leaza a few moments ago.

[color=fff79a]"Oh no..."[/color] Lily said, nervously flying around the 'Obsidian Idol' covering her mouth with her hands. She could never have thought the situation was so terrible... Not even Edgar's loud arrival was enough to make her take her eyes off the obsidian statue.
