Arabella

She stood still and nodded, she wouldn't repeat anything, at least not this time. "If you don't mind, I think I'll stay quiet for the time being." She smiled at him. "I'm ready when you are." She listened as the rain slowed, it was now nothing more then a light sprinkle. She listened closely to the sound of Maliki breathing, preparing for his ritual.

Malaki Amanar

Malaki smiled and nodded. "I don't mind. Now please stand with me and clear your mind." He walked over to the red candle and picked it up before lighting a match. "In the name of the God and Goddess, I ask that the eternal element of fire join us." He lit the candle and set it down. He walked to the blue candle and picked it up, "In the name of the God and Goddess, I ask that the ever present element of water join us." He lit the candle and set it down. He moved to the green candle, "In the name of the God and Goddess, I ask that mother Earth and her ability of sustained life join us." He lit the candle and moved to the white candle. "In the name of the God and Goddess, I ask that the winds of the summerland join us." He lit the candle and moved to the final yellow one. "In the name of the God and Goddess, I ask that the spirit that binds us all to here and the eternal life force to join us." He lit the final candle and returned to the circle.

Malaki closed his eyes, "Blessed be." He opened his eyes and looked at Arabella. "I must pray now." He sat down and closed his eyes. He muttered a prayer and medatated.

Dance with me, make me sway
Like a lazy ocean hugs the shore
Hold me close, sway me more

Like a flower bending in the breeze
Bend with me, sway with ease
When we dance you have a way with me
Stay with me, sway with me

Red sighed, and nodded to himself, before slowly starting off, guiding her to the table, serverts walking around them once in a while. He stopped once at the table, and looked at Alex, "Well, were here. Hold on a sec, I'll get your chair." Soon as he said it, a servert girl waved him away and told him to sit and that she take care of Alex. Starting to lead her tot he other side of the table. Girls on one side, boys on the other huh? Well, he guess it made some sense. He sat down a stopped the impulse to put his feet up on the table. As he had a feeling the servants would even give him a good wack up the side for that.

The thought made him chuckle a bit, he then looked over at Alex and said, "Well, this oughta be interesting, no?"

Arabella

Arabella watched him move around the circle. She listened to every thing he said and watched as he sat down. Feeling awkward just standing, she sat down next to him. She sat silently, her mind still clear, she started to feel warm so she took her jacket of and placed it in her lap. She looked into Malikis face, she had a sudden urge to lean over and kiss him. She mentally slapped herself, one that would ruin his ritual, and two, why would she have a thought like that, after everything, why would she have already connected with him well enough for that to have even crossed her mind.

She heard a faint knock on the door distracting her from her thoughts. She stood up and walked over to the door quietly, not wanting to disturb Maliki. "Yes?" she asked the small man that came to the door. "Dinner will be served very soon, it would be greatly appreciated if you and Mr. Amanar would join the others." Arabella nodded and closed the door. She walked back out to the balcony and softly tapped maliki on the shoulder. "Dinner will be out soon, we have to go eat with the others."

Roxanne was sitting in the library, thankful for the quiet sanctuary the house offered to her. It seemed to be the only place Roxanne didn't bump into madness. Though, try as she might, Roxanne couldn't read too much. The book wasn't the problem. Oh, on the contrary it was beautifully written but her mind was elsewhere. Roxanne's mind was streaming with a feed of all the things that had occurred thus far.

Alex, for starters, seemed... harmless but still, he was her fiancé and that just wasn't just. He and she were on the same page, though. Thankfully, she hadn't been paired with some romantic fool. At least they were both practical and maybe it wouldn't be too hard of a trial for them. Marriage, who knew she would be subject to it. Actually, who knew that Roxanne would end up loathing the idea when only years ago, she'd closed her eyes to envision herself in white and walking down an isle-

There was a knock on the door that snapped Roxanne out of her nightmare. She looked up in time to see one of the house maids stick her head into the room with an apologetic smile. "Ma'am, dinner is to be served soon and it would be lovely for you to sit in with the other guests, along with your fiancé," the maid said quietly. Roxanne grimaced.

"Alexander is upstairs, not with me at the moment," Roxanne said casually as she stood up from her seat and placed the book down on the table beside her. Gracefully, she moved towards the door and walked out as the maid parted to find her fiancé and announce dinner.

Oh, this would be quite... challenging. Roxanne breathed in slowly as she moved towards the dining room and moved towards a seat that a servant guided her to. She noted the frail creature, Alexandria, from before as well as her vile fiancé but didn't show her disdain in her face as she sat down. Roxanne gave a curt nod to both of them, but otherwise kept quiet.

Malaki Amanar

Malaki looked up and nodded. He soon got up and walked around blowing out the candles and thanking each element. He turned and walked into the room. "I'm going to change quick." He took off his shirt and set it on his bed before grabbing his clean clothes and heading off to the bathroom.

Soon Malaki emerged from the bathroom with new clothes and his older clothes in his arms. He set them on the bed and splashed on a fine cologne. "Are you ready?" He asked Arabella as he started putting on his boots.

Alexander was far too deeply submerged into the book he was reading to notice the passage of time. For him, it could have been seconds, minutes, hours, or even days since he had arrived in his room and begun reading the book.

When he heard the door creak open slowly his eyes glanced reluctantly from the words on the page to the door, to see a maid glancing into the room. "Sir, dinner is being served," she said, with something like a smile. "You are to join the other couples in the dining room, and sit opposite of your fiance." With those words, she quietly shut the door and left.

Alex couldn't help but grimace at the word fiance, but with a sigh, he glanced at the page he was on, set the book aside, and began making his way towards the dining room. Typically, Alex read while he ate--some might call it rude, but he generally didn't have anyone else there to eat with anyway. Soon he had arrived in the dining room, and discreetly slid himself into the seat opposite of Roxanne.

Arabella

While Maliki was changing Arabella quickly straightened out her dress and ran her fingers through her long black hair before bulling it up into a bun. "Yeah, I'm ready." She took his arm and went down to the dinning room. She was led to the seat next to a girl wearing a long black dress that was slightly damp. She watched as Maliki was led to the seat directly across from her, next to a man that looked very tough. She turned to the girl next to her "H-hi, I'm Arabella, we arrived late, so we don't know anyone here yet."

Malaki walked with Arabella to the dining hall and was soon sat next to a pretty big guy. He looked over at Arabella who introduced herself to the girl sitting next to her. He turned his head towards the man next to him. "Evenin'" He nodded towards the man. "Name's Malaki, yours?" He asked the man before grabbing the glass of water that had been set out for the guests while everyone arrived. He cracked his neck before drink a bit from the glass.

As Roxanne sat down, she noticed as Alexander discreetly entered the room. Her face remained blank for a moment as she darted her eyes away. She had to live up to her... arrangement of sorts. Oh, if only she could muster up the nerve to-

"Hello again," Roxanne said in Alex's general direction with a nod. No smiles would ever pass her lips in the presence of so many people. Only polite nods and replies for Roxanne. She was very pleased with herself, actually, in her ability to actually acknowledge her fiancé. It did take much of her energy away.

To keep herself busy, Roxanne picked up her clothe napkin and smoothed it down on her lap in preparation for the meal.

I looked from RJ to the dress to RJ to the dress and than sighed. What a head ache. I fingered it before slamming my suitcase with it shoved inside. I nodded in approval. I looked to RJ again and my eyes softened ... Just a bit ... " Yah I guess it would but I never know how to put on those things ... Much less have the will to wear one. " I slightly frowned a bit, knowing it was true. My past hadent been at all bad compared to most. I guess this is what you call spooked and self absorbed. I looked to RJ as he put his stuff next to the bed by the door. Wanted to run away quickly? I smiled a bit in amusement. " Actually I don't think I had a choice in the matter. It looks like you've made a permanent residence in the easiest escape route. " Surprisingly, I laughed, which I had not done in a long time, and thinking about it made me stop. My eyes lowered and the softness from
my eyes disappeared. I held out my hand. " I guess I'm in luck. I'm going to become an icicle soon. "

Rj

Rj smiled when she looked back and forth to the dress, but then frowned a bit when she put it away. "If putting it on is the issue, if you are uncomfortable with me, you could ask my sister, or one of the servants. But if you insist on wearing my clothes I suggest this" He pulled out the smallest white shirt he had, along with a pair of black pants. "It will probably fit you best, though you might have to roll the pants up." he smiled at her reasoning for him choosing the bed nearest the door, "Actually, I chose the bed closest to the door, because my sister is across the hall, she suffers from night terrors, and I am the only one that can really calm her, mostly because no one else in the house ever cared to check when she was screaming." His head dropped, he knew this whole thing was going to be very complicated for Mary, and he would have to tell Nick about her sleeping problem, he knew she wouldn't.

Just then there was a knock at the door, he opened it slowly, not wanting to expose Wolf to whomever their caller was. It was a rather tall servant with news of dinner. Rj nodded, and closed the door turning to Wolf "You better hurry and get dressed, dinner is about to be served, and we are expected to eat with the other house guests."

Alex had sommoned the servent to her side that had been serving wine. She whispered into his ear about her special bottle and he nodded back to her before scammpering into the kitchen. Then on of the girls next to her attemped a conversation. Begining with a stutter no less. Great she was one of those nerve ridden girls. Probably couldn't tell a pocketknife from a pariknife.

Alex shook her head slightly once then smiled sweetly. "My name is Alexandria Love. Nice to meet you." Then just for fun she turned her fave towards the girl showing her blank, white eyes. Then the servent came back with the clear bottle of a crimson liquid looking like incredibly thick red wine. Her poured her goblet full.

Alex nodded him a quick thanks then took a small drink from the crystal glass. Half of her hoped someone realized what it was she was drinking. Maybe a bit of panic would ensure. A few faiting women was always entertaining. They always seemed to have such weak stomachs and ever weaker constitutions. Alex shook her head. She was starting to sound more and more like a man as she took another sip from her glass.

Red turned to look at the guy called Malaki, looking him over once, smelled like smoke. Not the sharp smoke of gun power though, it was a some what sweet scent. Weird, the woman must have put up a ton of scented candle, he kinda felt sorry for the guy, if he had sleep int he same room as all that smoke he'd go mad. Then he cracked his neck, rude little bastard. He liked him already, "Tch, Names Flamma Prognotis. Call me Red." He smiled a bit, well, it more of a smirk. Then he smelt it again, blood, fresh at that. Most didn't know the scent, or how to tell it apart, but, he had come to know the smell well, it burned into his memory. He turned, looking at Alex, then her drink, and grunted/chuckled once. Right here, in front of everyone? Oh, that was rich.

He smiled a bit more and picked up his glass, water? Well, that was rather unpleasant, 'Um... Sir, Please, your glass.'
He turned to see a kid, well, he was young, but, he respectful enough, and he had the right bottle, "Huh... is that what I think it is?"
The kid nodded once, 'Yes Sir, the finest from your family's private stock, its what we'll be serving for your stay.'

Red chuckled then ruffled the kids hair, that was some the best news he'd heard in a month, "Well, pour away kiddo." Dinner had just gotten five points better, maybe staying wouldn't be to bad after all.

Arabella

Arabella smiled, before realizing the girl next to her was blind. She watched as the young man serving them pour what looked like red wine into her glass, then she smelt it, the all to familiar scent of blood, coming from her glass? She looked at it closely, yes, it was in fact blood she was drinking. Arabella gagged a little, but made no sound. There was probably a reason able explanation, and she refused to make a scene out of herself. Instead she continued smiling and gave a polite nod in Reds direction after hearing him introduce himself.

"Well, this is nice, I rather do enjoy knowing those who I am sharing living space." She placed her napkin in her lap, so that she would have something to keep her hands busy, the servant moved around the table filling wine glasses, more then the number of people already in the room. "Oh, it seems there are others who haven't made it down yet."

Alex took in the girl's words. So in other words she was nose as well as overly nice and neerve ridden. God this was going to be annoying. "Yes well knowing who you are living with is alright but you should probably remember that a person's past is their own to either tell or keep to themselves." Then she took one more mouth full from her glass, letting the liquid sit heavy on her tongue for a few moments.

As Alex swallowed the blood feeling the bit that was on her lips. To anyone who looked, her lips had been tinted a health, bright red which only paled out her face more in comparison. She licked her teeth clean quickly before Arabella made yet another comment which drew a small smirk to her own lips. "Oh really? I personally can't tell. How many more seem to be missing?" she held a small about of disinteret in her voice. This would be the comment where most others would apologize then simply sit in scilence to move to their other side and gossip about as her if her not being able to see also meant she was completely deaf.

Arabella

Arabella frowned. "It looks as though there are 6 more to join us, and I'm not trying to be rude I'm just trying to make conversation, you have no reason to use that tone with me." She turned away from Alex and stared at the table. She glanced up at Maliki, hoping he hadn't heard her, though he probably had, she had raised her voice slightly.

Malaki Amanar

Malaki nodded at the man named Red. "Hello Red." He turned and watched the conversation between Alex and Arabella. Interesting... "Alex, please, let's not be hasty on our first night. No one knows anyone, except for the few that have already made conversation in their rooms." He said simply and closed his eyes before leaning back, only to be interupted by a servant boy asking him what he would like as a drink. "My fathers red wine. The oldest we have please." Malaki said simply. The servant boy ran off and soon returned with a bottle and started to pour it into his glass. The boy started to turn and leave. "No. No. You leave that with me. Please." The servant boy nodded and set the bottle on the table before leaving.

It seemed... as if he wanted me to wear it. I looked at him and his clothes for a moment, before I sighed and got the same dress out and went into the bathroom to change. Why was I doing this? I didn't know, but my heart was fluttering like a bird as I thought about it. I opened the door and sighed as I put on some black flats put perfectly next to it, that had ribbons that crawled around my shin and stopped at my knee and ended in a bow. I slowly sighed and took his harm. " Let's go, it's not like I know these people anyway.." She grumbled, closing her eyes and trying not to think about how she looked. She had actually brushed her hair, and but it on the right side on her shoulder, while her hair was drying into curls.

RJ smiled when she grabbed up the dress and went to change. When she came out and put on her shoes, he had to refrain from letting his jaw drop. He offered her his arm, which she took slowly and lead her to the door. Half way down the hall he noticed her hair was drying into curls. Rj leaned down to her and smiled "You look amazing. Absolutely beautiful." He looked ahead in time to see the stairs. He escorted her down them and turned into the dining room. "My sister and Nick aren't here yet. Strange." He took his seat next to a man with medium length black hair and a fairly pale completion.

As we walked down the hall, I had a sudden urge to punch him. It was a habit to punch a guy if they touched any part of me, even my arm. It was reflex I had learned after being taken advantage of so many times. Being abnormaly pretty for my age, it was no question guys looked. And in a bad way. So as Wolf learned that it was bad to do such stupid things, even if she really didn't look that girly anyway, she started to hide her hair in hats, give glares to people, and always, wear t-shirts and jeans. Her sense of dressing up would be an old emo skirt, with a hat that wasn't dirty and a clean t-shirt. Looking down to herself again she wanted to punch him and throw up. It took all her self control not to. His comment made her jump and she put her head down as a red color filled into her face. She shook it off and actually punched him this time. Not enough to hurt, but more playful. It was just to tell him she heard that.

As he escorted her down the stairs like she was handicapped, her growing irritation started to make her twitch. Almost everytime she stepped down she could swear she was about to trip. " I am so made for tennis shoes. " She muttered under her breath, watching her steps like she was just learning how to walk. Slight thankful that he was there to keep
her up, she slowly became used to them. The image of his smile when she went to change passed through her haud as they entered the dining room. I can't be this obedient! She screamed in her head before he whispered something only she could hear, making her doubt and irritation disappear at the sound of his voice. Of course. He was worrying about his sister again. She sighed as she sat down, not even caring if she was even sitting down next to someone. No one would recognize her anyway. As she looked from girl to girl, their legs seemed to be crossed. Hers were spread apart in a relaxed position as usual but she wondered. Was she supposed to cross her legs? She shook her head before speaking to RJ. " Im sure your sister is fine. She is probably purely capable of taking car of herself. She may be a very obedient child if you ask me, but every girl has a thorn." I looked to RJ and tried to give a reassuring smile. NOT my character. BLEH!!! I wanted to throw up again....

Alexandria simply shrugged. What they had to say or think about her meant little to nothing in her opinion. She then turned her face towards Red. Her eyes focused, as if almost determined to force past her physical weakness. She held her goblet by the rim and swished her drink lightly. "So, dare I ask your opinion on my playing? I fear not that you'll give your thoughts bluntly, but what those thoughts seem to be almost always seems to shock me." she said smiling lightly. Then as she takes a better clasp on the stem of her glass taking small mouthful, letting the liquid sit on her tounge, enjoying the taste slightly before letting it slide down her throat

"Tch.... She's just a bitch by nature. Ignore it." He shrugged a bit, looking over to her as she asked about her music, "And, I liked it. I'd ask you to play again later on." Had he really just said that in front of all these people? God, they would think he was going soft, he downed his glass and looked up, shouting to the servants, "Hey, get me a refill over here damn it!" He snorted a bit looking back at the table. Maybe he was going soft, he had left Alex alive, and had even had a decent conversation with her. He sighed heavily, this was going to be the death of him.
