is he okay?

'no.novas you clearly know!'he got up.'i'll deal with you later if they're threatful!'he ran up to go find out.


'like i'll care.'

Aqua pricked her ears and ran after Zane. "!!?!"

Lexi started shaking, and covered her face,

novas sat at the table.



zane slowed to a walk,sliding his finger on the wall.'..........'

she blinked and walked up to him, beside him.

he stopped.'..and then its gone..'he frowned

She whimpered, and hugged him. "What is?"

'the presence.'he sighed.

She looked down, and held his hand, "s-sorry Zane." She looked at him.

'its fine..but why novas tried to keep it under wraps...thats not like him.'he walked back.

Aqua looked at him, then followed him. "..." She walked over and took his arm with hers, and stood there.

Lexi looked at them, and kissed Novas' Nose. "Please, tell."

'tell what,theres nothing to say?'he shrugged.


he looked at novas.'i dont know whats got into you but seriously,tell me now or-.'

he looked at zane.'or what!?you'll stick me in my room for a week?hit me into submission!?its always rules and control with you!your not my father so leave me alone!you have no right to treat me like this!'he got up and ran outside,and kept running.

Lexi pricked her ears. "N-NOVAS!!!!!" She cried.

Aqua sighed, and looked at them. "I got him." Her clothes quickly changed into so,etching more comfortable, and took off after Novas.

Lexi walked over to the couch. "..."

'...this is what i was to protect against...'he looked at where he ran.


novas continued.'damn fox!'

Lexi got up, and walked over to Zane,,and hugged him, looking up at him. "He's fine." She held his hand,,and walked over to the couch.

Aqua growled and caught up with him, grabbing his arm, pulling him back. "Novas! H
What happen!"

'hmh.'



he yanked his arm away.'go away bitxx!!'

She looked at him, "Novas, please just explain to me, why your running?" She grabbed him again,,and pinned him to the ground,

Lexi climbed up onto his lap, and started shaking, "I-is this play haunted?" She seemed a little scared, looking around.

'not even the slightest!'he smiled.



he tried to get away.'im sick of rules and boundries!from a random man no doubt!let me go damn it!'

Lexi looked at him and hugged him, smiling, "r-really?" She looked him in the eyes and smiled bigger.

Aqua growled. "He does it because he cares for you! If he didn't he wouldn't have done that! Be thankful he does do it! At least he doesn't try to kill you! Be thankful for that!"

'i dont care! its sufficating!'



'ya,but if im wrong you tell me and i'll send them back to their grave~.'he was being funny.

Her ears dropped as she looked around, being a little scared, "..." She looked behind herself.

Aqua looked at him. "...would you rather have rules, or be hunted down your whole life, wanting to be killed... I rather be alive and see life..." She looked at him. "He does it for a reason, like you told me, he doesn't want to hurt and one, or one to get hurt."

he was still stubborn to give in.'....i dont care.'



he smirked,'dont worry lexi~.'

"Don't tell me you don't because you do!" She looked him in he eye. "Look me in the eye, with a serious face, and tell me you don't like Zane caring for you... Because I know you do care, your just saying that."

Lexi looked at him, and hugged him, poking his arm. "o3o.." She put her hands around his upper arm, and blushed. "o3o you has muscles!~"

'heh! yup! i have to stay in shape for what my life brings.'



he avoided eye contact.'no.'

She giggled. "There bigger than what my hands can fit around!" She smiled and looked at him. She held her arms up and flexed. "I'ma work hard to become stronger!"

Aqua smiled. "Exactly..." She got up and helped him up. "Will you come back with me?"

'i wont do that either~.'he grinned abit and looked at her.



'hmh~.to me your already strong,strong willed.you will stand up for anything you see is right.'
