Into the Stars

[InsaneTruth]

"I will not die... Even if I must cheat the black god himself," Justice promised her "till you find a way,"

 

[Ricia]

Buba smiled and nodded, satisfied with such a promise.


When the evening arrived, Buba and Justice finally got up. Shougen who was also still exhausted fell asleep in his cat form with Annie.


When Luicfer, Rick and Max arrived for dinner... Taji was with them. He was just as surprised as everyone else to meet Annie. Turely he was more interested in Mimi, who was exactly like Mika at on point in her life. Would Mika grow to be like her?

 

[InsaneTruth]

Lucifer of course took Kasu to go 'talk' before dinner and try to make up an exuse to not eat real food.


Justice was a bit slow to rise he was still a bit on the weak side but he was recovering quickly a few more days of rest and he'd be ready to face Tempest again were he still alive.


Victoria made quick friends with Annie it was an almost instant hit they were so similar.


To Ricks shock Kasu actually hugged him as a greeting the childe was stil not over the shock of loosing Buba and Usak had not been out since the dusk fight

 

[Ricia]

Rick was a bit shocked.. but he greeted him before. Rick kind of went into 'hiding' when Kasu and the fairy turned up around the house. Avoiding Kasu was for Kasu's own protection then Rick's.


Emma welcomed everyone in happily, Rick offered to help with dinner.


Buba waited patiently for Justice to wake, not pulling a prank on the knight like she did earlier.


Buba later introduced Annie to everyone, really Taji thought it was strange that Annie was Buba's graduated apprentice and first fairy.

 

[InsaneTruth]

Justice was grateful that Buba waited on him to wake he of course escorted her down as a knight should.


Lucifer knew why Rick was hiding it was because of Issa, however Lucifer noticed Usaks aggression was so tame since the kidnapping that he was unsure if the vampire was even healing from the shock at all.


Annie smiled laughed and told stories to the fairy about her and Buba's time together of course she left out bits since Issa didn't know anything about all this.

 

[Ricia]

That night, Buba had gotten out of bed to get some water. She assured Justice and Shougen she would be back. She walked out of the room and too the kitchen to get her water.

 

[InsaneTruth]

The house was quiet exept for one restless person who was pacing the floor of the room he was sharing with his sister who was sound asleep.

 

[Ricia]

Kasu heard the sound of running water in the kitchen for a few moments, then the sound of the kitchen chair moving.

 

[InsaneTruth]

The vampire went to go see who was up he stood in the kitchen doorway and he saw Buba up and about.

 

[Ricia]

Buba was quietly drinking water, in deep thought. She spotted Kasu a moment later, though her vision was a bit bad like any normal human, it took a minute to realized there was a predator starting at her. Really has her senses dulled so much?


"Kasu?" Buba asked softly. "Are you alright?"

 

[InsaneTruth]

"I... I am," He stepped to where she could see him better he was in his pj's again "You still smell weak you should be in bed,"

 

[Ricia]

"I'll smell like this till I get my magic back. It will take several months." Buba told him. "Come, sit down. Why are you up?"

 

[InsaneTruth]

'I can't sleep," Kasu said softly he went and sat down,

 

[Ricia]

"Too many heart beats?" Buba asked him.

 

[InsaneTruth]

"No... I find that comforting, I would count them like I used to count sheep," Kasu said "I just don;t feel safe closing my eyes,"

 

[Ricia]

Buba grew a bit worried, "What are you afraid of?" She asked him softly.

 

[InsaneTruth]

"That you will die again," Kasu said he didn't buy the whole I was alive just weak thing, He knew her heart stopped he smelled the stench of death.

 

[Ricia]

Buba reached out to Kasu and ran her hand through Kasu's hair and the side of his face, "Listen... I can't die as long as one of the other fairy masters still live... you hear me?" Buba told him, assured him. "I can not tell you how or why because I am spellbound... but keep this to yourself and tell no one else."

 

[InsaneTruth]

"You... did die... I knew it... thank you, for telling me all you could I'll keep it to myself I promise," Kasu told her and smiled as she pet him so affectionately.

 

[Ricia]

"I told you too much...." Buba said softly, "I hope the spell doesn't strike me down..."

 

[InsaneTruth]

"I won't tell nor will I think on it, I am just assured you are too powerful to die," KAsu told her

 

[Ricia]

Buba looked down at the table. Did she say too much? She'll only find out when she recasted her spell. She closed her eyes and took a soft breath.

 

[InsaneTruth]

Kasu looked at her he was worried still but he would never want her to hurt herself to assure him of anything,

 

[Ricia]

"Come here Kasu." Buba said after a few moments, holding out her arms for him.

 

[InsaneTruth]

he went to her and into her arms without hesitation or second thought,
