Hit and Run!

[Rakashi Yamoki]

Isako's eyes watched in bewilderment. She didn't understand how he could be so calm. Then again, her mind wasn't so focused on his calmness as oppose to the fact he wasn't catching fire or screeching in pain. The creatures that hated water would have done so and she could run.

As she stared, he placed a nice red fruit in her hands. It felt almost like an item of appeasement, something to keep her from reacting as poorly. Her eyes stared at the fruit. She couldn't say she wasn't hungry, the entire night she had stayed up just in case the shadowlings would return to finish the job. She knew how to fight them off. Water usually was the best means. They hated water so much.

She quickly, and quietly bit into the apple, her eyes blank as she stared at nothing. The taste of food was good. It slowly came apparent that she hadn't had anything to eat for a while as she began to chew the fruit under her mask. She dared not take it off. It was a bit odd to eat like that but it was something she grew up with.

The apple was gone under her black fabric and under the mask as she still kept from revealing anything more then she was some green eyed and silver eyed woman.

"Why are you nice to Isako?" uttered the woman as she took bite after bite from the apple. "You are like Irist... she was nice too. Father-Ophian was stern... he said I was to repay his kindness though good acts... Used to work with chisel and pickaxe... not good.... he then made me write... much better... Irist came around often askin' what I write. She asked if we were friends too... Why scale-brother want to be friends with Isako? Isako didn't have friends..." She glanced around, as if seeing if anyone was around. She leaned int slightly to whisper to him.

"Isako isn't like scale-brothers or scale-sisters. They were nice but they always looked at her weird. We suspect it was cause what father said about her..." The woman leaned away as she seemed to relax slightly.

"Why does Resarki want to be friends? Resarki doesn't know Isako... doesn't know anything about her..."

'Isako, why shouldn't I be nice to you? You saved Resarki's life.' Resarki said. 'Forget your Father-Ophian. I never knew mine, but now he's gone.' Resarki said, trying to comfort her as she munched her apple.

'Was Irist a friend of yours? I had a friend too. When Resrki was a blacksmith, a girl named Stran used to help him. She was very nice with Resarki. Resarki never learned to write...' He said, trying to keep her comfortable.

'Isako, it is true that Resarki knows nothing about you..But sometimes friends don't need to know anything to be friends. Now, tell me.'He said. 'Can Resarki be your friend?'

"I saved no life." she replied as she took another bit of the apple. "Doctor did... he stopped the bleeding. I didn't. I could slow it, but not stop it. You offer to much gratitude towards this one. This one simply does as needed." The woman's hand came out from under her black coverings revealing the apple's core. She had ate rather quickly.

The core was still in her hand as she seemed to be looking at it. "If Resarki wishes to be a friend, then Isako has no objections... Lyna might have an objection... but she only does cause she thinks that everyone is out to get her... Nidaba is always looking for people to ask..." The woman seemed to be muttering mainly to herself as she held the core, pulling out one of the seeds as she dropped it to the ground.

"Enyo... he might have a problem... Enyo doesn't like people... Doesn't like people at all... "Best people is a corpse" he says. He doesn't like strangers..." said Isako as she seemed to look deeply at that the black, smooth seed that came from the apple she had consumed. Who was Enyo?

'Who is Enyo...? Resarki sees no one else.' Resarki said, looking around.

(Sorry for small post, last thing i can make before bed.)

[Rakashi Yamoki]

(( No problems ;) ))

"Enyo?" replied the woman as if questioning him. However, her head was tilted to the side as if confused as well before she stood up and began to pace a bit, scratching her shoulder as she did so. It seemed that she was uneasy. That could be bad. It seemed she got worse when she felt uneasy.

"Enyo...? Enyo is Enyo... He is not very nice to Isako. He likes to argue with her. It's kinda scary how bad their arguments can get... Scares me when they begin yelling at each other... usually that is when Lyna steps in. Lyna is a strong woman... she is stern and never stands down even when Enyo tried to hit her. Lyna is always protecting Isako."

Who was she talking about? Where were these two people? She didn't seem to be the type traveling with others. The way she spoke was somewhat odd, yet, what wasn't odd about this fully covered woman?

"Enyo however is sleeping now. He doesn't seem to be all too awake here. Isako suspects it has something to do with the lack of gold. Enyo was so much more awaken when he was at home... Fasska. Lyna is happy about that... I think she wants Enyo to never come back... I don't think Isako would argue to much with that..."

Isako was wandering about, not really far from the place she was sitting, but she seemed to have the need to move for some odd reason.

Resarki let her move about. It seemed easier that way. He didn't understand one thing she had said, and decided not to let the issue go on any further.
'Where do you live?' Resarki asked.

(Sorry, I'm just not feeling to make long comments. Im pretty tired these days for some reason...)

[Rakashi Yamoki]

((No worries. If you are feeling tired, then by all means rest as much as you need.))

"Wherever there is a place out of rain." She replied as she seemed to pause in her movements. She turned to him for a moment as she seemed to be trying to focus for a moment. Then she seemed to get startled by something, causing her to twitch away from her left.

"And... and it has to be bright... no darkness... nothing dark... Has to be open... No closed in space. No closed in space." Uttered the woman before seemingly moving away from Resarki, her back pushed back against the wall as if she were trying to stay as far from him.

"Quiet... Needs to be quiet... no home. No home..." she slid down the wall as she wrapped her arms around her knees. Her mask was resting against her knees as her eyes seemed to be wide, yet unfocused on the world. Almost as if she were simply disconnected.

She closed her eyes as her hands went to her ears. "Isako has no home. Isako wanders... No place is safe from the Shadowlings... They will keep coming back and they will not stop... They are always around... Go away..." She was rocking back and forth as if it were somehow offering her some relief.
