Voltages (Closed)

Stella

"Wow," I remarked, unable to think of anything else to say. "You're right. Tori, that sounds almost exactly the same as your story." Nephil nodded in agreement.

"The sword master," I began. "Is that where you got your..." I made a chopping motion, as if I was swinging Nephil's big sword. I didn't know what to call it, really--a broadsword, maybe? I hadn't seen anything like it before, and I didn't want to get the name wrong.

Nephil

I nodded in agreement with what Stella was saying and even more so when she asked about Masamune.

"My sword Masamune, used to belong to my master, which used to be his before he passed away due to old age. Also can you tell the guy who retrevived Masamune NOT to use it's power, he could end up dead if he does. Masamune only obey's it's master which is me." I told her.

Victoria

I shoot Nephil a stern look after he calls me by my nickname. "Don't call me Tori. Only friends call me that." I snap, walking off to find Trevor.

I find him and flash a smile. "Hey. Nephil I think wants to see you...Not sure but he's been blabbering about you." I chuckled.

Trevor

I'm pacing in my room, my hands behind my head in stress, when Tori finds me.

"Hey. Nephil I think wants to see you...Not sure but he'a been blabbering about you." She flashes a smile and chuckles.

Before I ask what he'd said, I find myself hurrying to the holding area. Stella is speaking with him.

"Leave us," I order, trying my best to hide my anger.

Nephil

I stand to meet my brother we stare each other eye to eye as he doesn't look happy to see me. I smile and begin to talk.

"I wanted to talk about me getting my blade back from the guy who got it, it be very bad for him to have it in his posseision. Oh and I like to have some dinner with you, to catch up on old times." I ask not shalontly.

Trevor

I study him, not believing he's serious.

"Your sword, Nephil? Really?" I chuckle. "Yeah, that's not going to happen. I'll make sure nothing happens to him or the sword."

I sigh, looking around.

"As for the dinner..." I glance back at him. "My group and I have dinner together every night. I've done enough to them as it is. If we're to have dinner together, they will be with me. And I'm not so sure I feel the same way about catching up."

Nephil

"You would think after all these year's you would want to catch up and have a good old time. Like the brother's we used to be. Come on bro what happened to ya? Joining the Loyalists hasn't changed you that much? Has it?" I ask.

Kira Lowell

I have my back turned my brother who was getting his cloths back on, when sudden rusaling comes from the bushes I'm facing. Two girls and a guy pop out like they been in a hurry.

"Who are you?" I yell at them.

"Yo Kira! What's going on up there?!" Jop yells from below.

Trevor

I shake my head at him, unable to stop myself from cracking a smile.

"What we used to be, isn't possible to return to," I tell him, "And we both changed, Neph. I think choosing between what we did comes with."

Nephil

I looked at him as he cracked a smile finally. I smiled myself, knowing that old brother of mine was still there.

"Come on we'll talk about my staying arrangement's until I can finish in healing myself up. Then we'll see about one final duel, I promise." I said.

He unlocks the door as we head down the hall at first we were silent, but soon enough Trever broke the ice and we began chatting like brother's once again. We eventually came to Trever's group as they made dinner, I toke a seat at the table and couldn't help but smile as they all stared at me.

"Top of the evening to you all." I said.

Victoria

When Nephil sat at the dinner table I stared at him wide eyed.

"Top of the evening to you all." He greets with a smile. No one responds, too far shocked.

I look up at Trevor and he shrugs. I swallow and look at Mince who's gotten speechless as well.

I decided to speak up and I hesistated before opening my mouth. "Sorry about the arrow in the arm." I chuckled, leaning back in my chair.

Mince

Nephil was looking at me, or rather, at his sword. I smiled nonchanotly. I bent over and started to eat.

Nephil

I eyed my sword that was on Mince knowing I had to get it back before Kira got here, one way or another I would have to do it. The table was silent for a long while before Tori had broke the ice.

"Sorry about the arrow in the arm." She chuckled out.

"Don't worry about it, but you should really think about what you planned to do to you're sister. You'll never know when you'll need her most. Ain't that right Trever?" I beconed as he sat down.

Trevor

I forget what happened between us sometimes. I forget why I'm so serious and set on making sure I no longer relate to him in any way besides blood. Sitting at the table beside him, I remember why.

"Ain't that right, Trevor?"

I sip on my drink, not responding right away, before glancing at him.

"I'd rather you not bring that up," I tell him in a whisper, remembering the time he speaks of, "We are not on the same side any longer. Stop trying to make things like they were."

Stella

I looked down at my food, trying not to stare at Trevor and Nephil. Trevor was already uncomfortable--his face was hot. Another pair of eyes on him would only make it worse.

"Stop trying to make things like they were," he whispered to Nephil.

I glanced at Mince, who still had Nephil's sword. He kept looking at Nephil as he ate, grinning occasionally. Nephil was trying to ignore him, but he was clenching his jaw. That sword must have been very important to him. I could understand that, the sword being from his old teacher, and all, but I myself had never been attached to an object that way. Maybe it was like my spectral vision--maybe the sword had been more like an extension of Nephil's arm.

Zaen

After running a while, we come across this mean looking girl who demands to know who we are. Not knowing whether she signs or understands sign, I wait for one of the others to speak up.

"Uh, Nephil...he sent us," the new recruit answers, "Y-you're Kira, right?"
