Cassie listened to what he had to say, and she could kind of understand why he would think it might just be easier to give himself in to the pilot. After all, it sounded like the easiest thing to do. It would just be skipping a lot of running and would just end things quicker. But, Cassie really didn't like the idea of him doing that. Sure, when she had first met him and he had threatened to either kill her or bring her into his people, she had sad he could and she wouldn't have cared, but that had all just been a bluff. Cassie still had the fight to survive, and look where it had gotten her. She was still alive and well, and actually, she was kind of happy. She had a great place to hide and for now she had some company. She just couldn't see anybody giving their lives up so easily like he was talking about doing.

But, then again, he was from a different society. They had been taught differently. Brain washed almost. She pursed her lips as she thought about this and looked back to him, speaking, "And....what if you didn't go back? You could always stay here. I have plenty of supplies and room. Besides, why give yourself in? Isn't that just giving into what they want? With that your sure to die. But....with not going back, you at least have a chance to live. Why would you want to throw away that chance?" She asked quietly, looking down at her own can of sliced pineapples and spoke again, "That's like saying you don't value your own life. And I don't know about your kind, but to human, life is precious. We cherish every life and don't give it up so easily."

Seeing him quickly finish up the first can of fruit, she plucked another off the shelf and tossed it to him, "Anyway, I guess that's all I have to really say on the subject. What you decide to do is your decision, but just know you have more options than to just give yourself up to them like that." With that, it feel silent for a long moment and when she was done with her own fruit and she saw he was done, she sighed and stood up, "Anyway, it's getting kind of late. I don't know about you, but I need some sleep." Stretching, she walked from the small storage room and across the hall was the bedroom. It had two beds, which she assumed her parent shad put in there so that they would have one and Cassie herself would have one if they had all stayed there together. But, since her parents were gone, that left the two beds for her and Serix if he wished to use the other.

It was a pretty plain set up with the beds on opposite sides of the small room in the same position against the wall and each bed had a small table beside it to set things upon. On the table beside the bed she had claimed when she got there, sat the photo album and on top of it was her father's pocket watch and the necklace her mother had given her. She moved over o the table and put both things inside of the photo album for safe keeping before she sat on the edge of the bed, speaking to him, "Feel free to take that bed if you get tired." She crawled into her bed and curled up under the blanket, giving a yawn, "Goodnight Serix." With that, she rolled over, her back to him as she fell asleep.

Stay with Me (Summer and Heartless)

Name: Mirabella Carmian

Age: 18

Race: Witch

Pet: She and her mother has a shapeshifting creature called a Maka. It is normally a dragon but will occasionally shift to a different animal.

Bio: Though Mira can not remember it, her mother was not always evil. Her mother, although she was a witch with darker magic, hadn't harmed anyone when she was child, and had even done some good with her magic. Her father was the same, using his magic for good as well. Only even when all you do is good, bad things can find you. Humans had taken to picturing all witches and warlocks evil causing term-oil between the humans and the magical beings, and because of this, her father, when Mira was just six years old, had been killed by a group of humans passing through the woods. Her mother had never forgiven that, and her father's death had left her mother's heart cold and bitter toward humans. It was because of this, that her mother had turned on the humans and wanted to keep her daughter form their 'evil clutches' as she said. In an attempt to shield Mira from those evil humans, kept her within a barrier. The barrier is not seen by human eyes without the help of magic,and was created to keep those without magic out. Only magic wielders could break the barrier, leaving Mira safe from humans as long as she was within that barrier that surrounded their cottage within the woods.

Yet, Mira was a curious child, and when she was eight, got her first taste of how cruel humans really could be. The young girl, curious about what lay in the woods beyond the barrier her mother had set up, left its protection and traveled just a little further into the woods, where she met a group of humans children playing a game of pretend. She was more than happy to join in. They played for about a half hour, when the children decided they wanted to change stories and play prince and princesses, which of course, included a evil witch. Now, Mira didn't think much of this. She thought it was just a fun game, and because she was a witch, offered to play the part of the witch. And it was in playing it, that she had showed her powers to these children, who were immediately disgusted by her. They called her names, threw mud at her and pushed her to the ground, threatening to drag her into the kingdoms and hand her over to the royals to be killed, most likely learning such things from watching their parents say and do the same things to magic wielders. Thankfully, her mother had been near by and had chased the children off, bringing the disheartened and hurt Mira back home, where Mira never dared to leave the barrier again. Still though Mira remained curious.

Her mother always told her that witches never would be considered good. They were doomed to living life in the darkness and to be hated by humans. That humans considered them worthless and would never understand them. And Mira wondered what she could do to make it so that humans didn't hate her. She spent her life reading storybooks(books that told the stories of the princess and princes who lived happily ever after after killing the witches. these had belonged to her father and he used to read them to her every night. After his death her mother tried to throw them out but Mira snuck them back in and hid them to keep for herself). Mira read them with the fascination and took them to heart. It was always a happy ending for the humans, yet not for the witches. After taking this fact in over and over again with every story she read through out the years, she came to the conclusion that she didn't want to be a witch anymore. She wanted to be human. She began to hate her powers and hate herself. She wanted to make a new her. But she never had the courage to leave the woods and try, for fear she would make a mistake and the humans might find out who she truly is.
Apperence:

(anime version)

(real life version)



Other: Mira has come to consider herself evil because she is a witch, even though she uses her powers for anything but evil. She considers herself evil because of what she is, rather than what she does, which is why she wishes to change what she is(even though this isn't physically possible, she still wants to at least act like she isn't a witch) and wishes to become human.

Cassie sighed, shaking her had a mall grin on her face momentarily, "No, being sweaty or anything else have nothing to do with someone being attractive. It's just something we say." She finished walking down the stairs and when they got to bottom, she turned to him as he started to explain what had happened when he went back to the ship.

She frowned when he began speaking about all that was going on with his people, as well as why he said he might not be back. So, his leaders were these higher powers that could very well make people disappear if they disobeyed orders. And here he was, going against what those leaders were saying by keeping her alive and it was very possible he could get killed if his people found out. She looked up at him, wondering what might happen to him if they did find out he was committing this act of treason. What had happened to the other aliens that had committed treason against their own people? She could try to go off of her mother to answer that question, but her mother was kind of different in the sense she had been with a human at the time of the alien take over. So for all she knew they had come to kill her father to stop him from creating any more weapons and her mother had just gotten in the way. She probably would never know why her parents had been killed, but maybe as Serix suggested it had something to do with her mother being part of his species and betraying their kind.

She smiled slightly now when he said she might be good fortune and shrugged, "Maybe I am. After all, I've survived the plague and a shot from your Silencer. That has to say something about my luck." Okay, so maybe that was completely luck, just good genetics. But he didn't know that. She merely smiled and crossed her arms in a proud sort of way. And when he said he got attacked by the dogs, she went on, going off of the fortune thing, "See? I wasn't around so you had bad luck and was attacked by some dogs. If I had been there I bet you wouldn't have run into any of those things." She joked and smiled at him.

There was a small pause after that because she very clearly heard a gurgling sound that made her look at his stomach and laugh as he asked if there was any food here. Nodding, she gestured for him to follow her, smiling at him again, "Yes, I have food. I better get you some before your stomach gets even more angry." She walked from the hanger and shut the door, going down the hallway and into the storage she had all of her canned foo and such in, "Pick what you want. Sorry its all canned, but that's all that could stay good during all this time." She stated,grabbing a can for herself to eat as well and opening it with a can opener, "Theres also some water over on that shelf too." She nodded to another shelf, then went to sit down on the floor.

"So what's your plan now? Are you going to go back to ship for your next check in, or do you have something else in mind?"

Looking over at him, she grinned, trying to hold in her laugh when he said he thought it was kind of hot in here, but a few seconds later she did give in and laugh, going to sit down in one of the two control chairs that was in the robot, looking over at him with a knowing grin, "No, no, no. I didn't mean cool as in the temperature being cold. I mean, cool can mean temperature, but here on Earth it an also mean impressive. Just like how although hot is a temperature, in human society it an also used to describe someone that is attractive." Why was human slang so difficult for her to explain to someone else? Maybe it was because the slang had a real meaning and the slang meaning.

She pulled her knees to her chest as she sat in the chair, "I am very proud of my father. He was really an amazing inventor. He was an amazing father too. He used to always bring me here and teach me how he put some of them together." She smiled, "My mother was pretty smart as well. She was more into inventing things that would benefit society and were more environmentally safe. In fact she probably created the generator that keeps the power running in here and the filter that keeps the water clean in this hide away." She of course couldn't know this for sure because she hadn't been in here in so long and she hadn't been around when the generator and such were created. She could only make guesses.

Looking back to him, she smiled, "I'm probably going to be staying here instead of the airport. I just figured....you know now that your people are here and searching for humans.....this place is pretty secure, has supplies, there's even a couple of beds. There's a generator too that keeps the power running too. It's just a really good place to stay. She stood up now and looked out down at the robots once more, "And.....well...maybe if I can get some of these thing working I can use them to protect myself if someone does find this place.Besides you of course that is."

She walked out of the robot with him and closed the cockpit again, heading down the metal stairs once more, "So.....what happened to you after you left the airport? You said I probably wouldn't see you again and yet I did. What exactly went down when you went to the ship? And what did you do to mess up your arm?"

Cassie grinned at as his exaggerated groaned when she told him he couldn't touch anything, "Would you rather accidentally break one of the robots and we never get to use them again?" She continued up the stairs, dragging him along as she went. Soon they were at the top and she did the same as him, looking down at all of the robots and admiring her father's work. It was really amazing to see all of this and she hoped she could live up to her father's genius and fix some of these robots. She had no idea what she would do with the robots once they were fixed up, but whatever it was she was sure these robots would help her.

Looking over at him, she laughed when he asked about driving one of the robots and shoo her head grinning, "These things have been sitting here for years. I have to give them a look over and see which ones need repairing first. Actually I was going out to get some wire to repair one of the smaller robots when a certain alien," She turned her teasing gaze to him, "Snuck in and scared the life out of me. So now I guess I'll have to go back out and get it later." She shrugged and walked up to the door leading to the robot's cockpit. She turned the handle, which took a good few moments of struggling because it was a little heavier and harder to open than she had expected, and when she pulled it open, stepped inside, grinning widely, "It's just as amazing as I remember."

She made her way over to the control panel and sat down in front of it, "This is so cool. It still amazes me what my father could do." She stood up to look out the front window of the robot and down at all the other robots, "Tell you what. When I get the wire to fix that robot controlled robot down there, I'll let you drive it." She looked to him, a grin on her face. Then she looked to the control once more, blowing dust off of the controls to get a better look, pleased to see everything seemed to be in order at least in the controls. If things where okay with the engine and such on the inside then that would mean this robots was still in running condition and she wouldn't have to do anything to it.

She leaned against one of the walls that didn't have control and smiled at him, "So, what do you think? Are they as cool as you imagined? Or is it a let down?"

It was nice to see the look on Serix’s face as they entered the hanger and he layed eyes on all of the robots. He looked like an excited child on Christmas morning when seeing new toys to play with. She didn’t really know how deeply his fascination for these robots went, but either way looking at him now he seemed very intrigued by them and was excited that he was in fact getting to see them. Walking along beside him, she smiled brightly herself, enjoying that she was actually getting to share this with someone else. At least her father’s work could still be admired so many years after his death. She was sure he would be happy about that.

As she walked along beside him, going around the giant robots, a loud noise sounded off, making her jump and immediately draw the Silencer from her side once more from the surprise of hearing such a noise. Only, as she looked around, there was nothing there she could see that would cause either of them any harm. She turned her gaze to Serix, a confused look on her face. He was looking up at first, at the giant magnet hanging above them, then he turned back to her grinning.

At the news the magnet above had destroyed Serix’s Intercom, the thing on his belt that was keeping them from talking, Cassie smiled brightly, “Really? Thank goodness. I don’t know about you, but not being able to talk drives me crazy.” Her eyes met his before they moved to look at the giant robots, grinning, “So, what do you think? Pretty amazing huh? Just like I remembered them too.”

Stepping forward, she began taking excitedly, “This one was remote controlled with camera to show you whats going on around it. Oh, and the other one was made for getting visuals and flying over areas undetected. This one on the end though was my favorite. It was run from the inside, meaning people could get in it and drive it.” As she spoke she pointed to each one she was talking about and walked over to the last robot she had mentioned before grinning mischievously at him, “We could go inside of it if you want.”

Walking over to the side of the room, she stepped on some metal stairs that led to a higher up platform in the room, used to enter the manually controlled robots, looking back at him, “Just….don’t touch anything. I’m not sure if this one is still operational and would prefer to not power it up until I figure out if it needs to be repaired or not.” With that, she smiled brightly once more and grabbing his good up, began tugging him up the stairs with her, “Now, come on. Let’s go check it out.”

Cassie wasn’t sure what exactly was going on here, but whatever it was, it couldn’t be good if Serix was gesturing her to be quiet and not speak. She looked at him and carefully followed him into the next room, that confused look staying on her face as he went through some of the drawers until he had found a pen and paper, scribbling down a couple of sentences, that were at first were somewhat hard to read due to his handwriting, but finally she managed to make out what it was saying and looked up at him wide eyed.

His pilot was listening in right now? Meaning if she said even just a few words, or if he spoke to her, his people would be all over them and would likely kill her. She wasn’t sure what they would do to him as well, but it couldn’t be good either, right? Slowly she nodded in understand to what he had written and looked down to see what he would write next.

What his next sentence said brought a slight grin to her face and she had to keep herself from laughing, especially when she saw the slight pink to his cheeks. Looking to him, she nodded and took him by his arm to lead him there, only to pause, feeling something wet on her hand went she did. Blinking in surprise, she took her hand away and looked down at it to see blood smeared on it. She looked at him worriedly before looking to his bleeding arm. When she saw how hurt it was, she gave him a look that was meant to be reprimanding, as if silently getting onto him for getting himself hurt.

She nodded her head for him to follow her and when they back in the lounge room she pulled away the carpet to reveal the passageway, which she hadn’t gotten a chance to close up in her time of hearing him approach earlier. She grinned at him slyly before stepping down into it, leading him down the hallway. Only she didn’t lead him straight to hanger that the robots were in. First, she stopped by a different room where all her supplies were, leading him in.

Once there, she grabbed a first aid kit from off the shelf and, giving him a stern look, she pointed to him and a chair, telling him silently to sit. Once he was sitting, she went to work, tending to the wound as gently as she could, her hands working swiftly and with very good precision, before she wrapped it up with a white roll of bandages. Soon that was done and she was standing up again, leading him out of that room and down to the end of the hall where the closed and secure metal door stood.

She looked to him once more and grinned even more widely before pressing her hand to the scanner. Once it was scanned, the metal doors slid open soundlessly and they were able to step into the room. Looking to him, there was a childlike joy in her eyes as she searched for his reaction to all the robots that were there, just as she had told him about.

How To Train Your Dragon: Spreading Wings

The guild has been doing that a lot lately XD I hope it get better soon.

Stand Alone(Summers and AHeartlessNobody)

Cassie was sure she had a really great hiding place. After she was done working on a few things on the biggest robot, she went to explore her new home and she was sure she counted about fifteen different rooms in the hallways, all each placed there with the expectations of long stays. Among those was bunker rooms with beds and such for sleep, a bathroom (that got water from the nearby river and was filtered through a small filtration system which needed to be changed every so often), a room full of books that taught anything from basic survival all the way up to the mechanics of building machines, and much more.

She was finding this to be very comfortable and right now she was wishing she would have come here a long time ago. She smiled even more widely with each room she found and started settling in pretty quickly. In the bunker, she put her few things from her parents on a small bedside table, then she went to a room where she guess storage would be as it had a whole case of bottled waters and some canned foods there already. She put what she had in there as well, then went back to the hold where all the robots were, moving to one of the smaller ones.

She opened up its back and began looking at some of the wires to see a few of them had gotten loose over the years and needed to be reconnected. But this also meant she needed some new wire, as well as a few other things. She found everything she needed in there, expect for the wire, which frustrated her to no end. How was she supposed to work on these robots without wire. But then again she supposed with the thickness of the wires that were in there, her father nor the others could have guessed some would snap.

Sighing in frustration she stood up from where she had been looking in one of the toolboxes and paced a moment, trying to think. There was hardware store a few buildings down she could try to make a quick run to, but would it be worth the risk? If she could get these robots fixed up maybe she could use them to protect herself from the aliens. But if she died trying to fix them up, what would that be worth? At the same time though, no one survived by never taking risks, right?

She nodded to herself with that and grabbed her bag, now emptied to put more supplies in, and made her way down the dimly lit hallway again, to the metal door. She pulled the latch back and pushed the metal door open, ready to crawl out, only when she was halfway out, she heard footsteps walking inside the building that made her freeze momentarily. Hearing them begin to head toward her way, she quickly hopped out of the hideaway and drew out the Silencer, pointing it in the direction of the door way, ready to shoot.

She saw the person round the corner and she pulled the trigger, a flash of blue escaping the Silencer, though much to her annoyance, the figure dodged it. However, in a few seconds, her annoyance melted away, because she saw this was not just any Scout. How good of luck did she have to run into him again? Was it even good luck? She wasn’t sure. But either way, it made her happy.

Lowering the gun, she smiled at him, walking over to him, “What’re you….” She paused trailing off when he began making gestures for her and she quieted herself, taking a few steps back, mouthing the words ‘what’s wrong’ to him, confusion written on her face.
