(It's okay X3 yeah Gesei's mother died about a year or so before she was offered as the sacrifice so when that happened Evelyn concidered Gesei her second daughter and would help when she could)

"Ow... so if Evelyn wasn't Gesei's mom where is she?" Baindo asked then looked down a bit suddenly realizing how rude it was to ask things like this. "I'm sorry not trying to be rude of intrusive I'm just curious. I never really did get to learn that much about you guys." he said softly as he looked at Dustan and hoped that he didn't mind him asking so much.

((okay))

Dustan frowned when he heard baindo and looked down at the ground, "well geseis mom died a few years before she was used as a sacrafice. That was how we found each other and we have been threw a lot." he said as he looked at baindo and smiled. "and dont be afraid to ask. YOu dont know mucha bout us so your probably curious." he said and Neva nodded as she listened. She already knew much about this but it was better to hear it form dustan.

"Ow... wow that sucks... why did they offer her as a sacrifice? They don't do anything like that now do they?" Baindo asked having nodded some at what Dustan said. He was a very curious person especially about the family that he lived with and now thought of as his own. He had never really learned anything about the family's past... he just knew that Gesei and Diea weren't originally shifters and that they were only half though Neva and Destiny were full shifters.

Dustan sighed, "they thought that I was some kind of monster and if they didn't give me a sacrifice each year that I would kill them." he said as he looked at Baindo. "but after everything that happened with me and gesei they stopped doing it. They know we wont hurt them as long as they dont hurt us but that trust is very fragile." he said as he looked at baindo. Neva nodded when she heard dustan, "very fragile." she said softly.

"Huh... so they don't do anything for you now?" Baindo asked curiously and couldn't believe what Dustan was telling him and that Gesei had been a sacrifice to Dustan, well at least that explained how they met and all.

(sorry it's kinda short XP )

Dustan sighed, "yeah that is about right. We try to have a nice festival but it usualy ends bad. But we still rptoect them since it is the right thing to do. Even though they hurt us, it is our job." he said as he looked at Baindo. YOu coudl hear from dustans tone that he was tired of it and wished that the villagers could just handle themselves.

((it is okay))

"So Kazu has been worried about you not protecting the village right? He's the one that comes to the cave every so often isn't he? He was scared you wouldn't protect them anymore when I I got hurt the first time and this time too... I can tell he has allot of respect and fear for you doesn't he?" Baindo asked softly and knew he was right about Kazu. He knew that it wouldn't be too good when the man passed away... he had a feeling the village would no longer abide by his rules once he was gone... couldn't they maybe help him somehow? He thought that would be a good idea to do and wondered some if Dustan had ever given it any thought.

(yeah I was about to go take a shower XP ow and I actually kinda do want to keep Kazu around XD he's a good chara in the plot X3 )

Dustan sighed and nodded, "yeah, kazu is afraid we will stop protecting the village but it is our job and we will do it no matter what." he said as he looked at him. "and your right. Kazu does respect us and fear us but we would love for him just ti think of us as friends and family. But he is getting old and we fear what will happen when he passes." he said softly and wondered if he could convince kazu to eat some of the flower. He would be like gesei and diea then.

((okay and I don't want to lose him either))

"So isn't there anything that you could do to help him not die?" Baindo asked softly and thought of his powers but he couldn't make anyone immortal... he could knock their body back a few years but that didn't stop them from dying and it didn't stop their age, it just made them look a bit younger.

Dustan nodded, "yes, we do but if we did he would become one of us and I am not sure how the villagers would react to that." he said as he looked at Baindo. He wasn't sure that if they did make him one of them that the villagers would listen to him anymore.

"What if he didn't shift? The only problem then would be that he wouldn't age and he wouldn't die. Maybe we could start trying to make contact with this village again? Maybe if we do that then eventually they'll be okay with us being shifters..." Baindo suggested softly trying to think of ways that they could keep their relationship with this village and keep Kazu alive. He could tell that everyone in his new family loved the male even though at one point he had caused problems for them... he could tell though that they didn't want him to die.

Dustan nodded, "I think that could work but we would have to connect with the village again. We just fear that something like this only on a larger scale will happen." he said as he looked at Baindo. He didn't want his family and kids to get hurt like this agian and with how the villager did he didn't trust them to much.

"What if you talk to the new leader? And maybe some of the people that reinforce the rules? We don't all have to be here for that ya know... they won't mess with you or Gesei or Neva's parents... so maybe after this all gets cleared up." Baindo said trying to think of all the things they could do. He knew it would be best if they could work everything out and eventually become friends with the village so this wouldn't happen ever again.

Dustan rolled this thought threw his mind and slowly he started to nod and smiled at Baindo. "you know that might just work. We could set up a meting out in the forest with them along with Kazu. We can talk to them about restablishing our trust and maybe we can work out a agreement." he said as he looked at him and smiled. Neva smiled when she heard him and Baindo. This plan sounded like it might work and couldn't wait for them to put it into action.

Baindo smiled at this happily and was glad that he could help. "If you can get Kazu to be like you guys then I can use a spell and make his body a bit younger so he wouldn't have to deal with being his age forever... I can shift the way someone looks and feels though I can't actually change their age and how close to death they are." he said softly and really wanted to help in whatever way he could. He was always trying to help his new family and trying to prove that he wasn't the man they had met the first day they found out about him... he wasn't that murderer... he was very kind and caring and he didn't understand what had came over him.

Dustan thought about this and then smiled at Baindo, "I am sure he would like that but we would have to ask him first. When he comes by we will talk to him." he said and Neva nodded. "but I am sure Kazu will like that." neva said as she looked at Baindo and smiled. She gently took his hand into hers and gently squeezed his hand. She knew that he wanted to show that he was a nice guy and she knew that he was. She just hoped that hte others knew too.

(sorry I meant 'looks' instead of 'acts' XP )

Baindo nodded some then smiled at Neva softly and lovingly before he looked up some. "I think Konran's awake." he said softly since he had a way of feeling when something was going on with Konran or when something had changed and he thought that she might have woken up.

Neva smiled when she heard Baindo and shot to her feet. "then lets go see her. I am sure that she will be very happy to see you." she said as he looked at him and smiled. She coudlnt' wait to go and say hi to her and hopefully she would be okay and able to talk to them.

Baindo smiled happily and chuckled a bit at Neva as he slowly stood and walked with her back to Konran's room. She had her eyes open slightly though weakly as she was just staring off still seeming to be half asleep. She turned her head a bit when she heard the two come into the room and gave them a weak smile before Baindo walked over and placed his hand on her head. She wined at him softly which made him smirk a bit though she didn't really seemed bothered at all. "Hey... do you mind if I shift you?" Baindo asked as he softly rubbed his hand gently across most of Konran's length that was curled a bit on the bed. She shook her head a bit and he nodded some. "Are you feeling up to that though? That's what I'm asking... you know it would be allot easier for them to help you in human form though." he asked worriedly. "I'm okay for it." Konran whispered softly and weakly as she looked up at him and he nodded some. Soon Konran's form started to glow a soft blue as i slowly shifted and twisted until a woman in a black cloak was laying in the serpents place. She had long ice blue hair and fair skin with ice blue eyes. She was rather tall and very thin though lean, strong looking.

Neva smiled as she came inside Konrans room and saw her on the bed. She looked better now that she was awake and stood back to let Baindo have some room with her. Though when her body started to change she couldn't help but stare. She never imagined that konran could ahve a human form but now she did. Smileing Neva walked over to konran, "you know you look better." she said softly since her wounds didn't look as bad as they had when she was in her serpent form.

"I don't feel any better... you just don't see all the bandages at once." Konran said softly as she looked at Neva then watched as Baindo went and got some bandages and started to fix and clean up the wounds that hadn't been fixed or that had bled out from the bandages.

(sorry it's kind stupid... at least I think so XP wasn't sure what else to put... do we want to have Kazu come in or something? Or maybe go to Jace and Destiny? Or what could we work with here? XP )

((maybe we should do somethin with Jace and destiny. But what? Have any ideas? Or do you think we should have something bad happen to Neva and baindo?))

(we could have something happen with Neva and Baindo though I don't know what XP right now Destiny amd Jace are injured so lets not mess with them XP )

((we could possibly have the villagers get ahold of them))

(I'm trying to make it so Dustan doesn't hate the village XD and there's only a small group that actually wants to hurt them at all XP I'm sorry I'm being difficult again T~T I just have a block right now DX )
