((How about you decorate the rooms! Also, I'll explain about the Eternal pain thing! XD))
Starlon led them into the castle and up a short stairway and down a hall. There were two doors right across from each other. "You guys can share a room, or have separate rooms." Starlon rumbled. "I have things to attend to, but everything you guys will need is in your rooms. Fresh clothes, bathtub, sinks, etc. If you'll excuse me." Starlon bowed and left.

((Do you mean that I can describe it, or that Hope can decorate it, and then it's like old and empty?))
"Oooo, if it's a bunk bed, I want the top!" She said, excitedly opening the door.

((You choose! I'm fine running this thing, but I don't like being or appearing bossy and keeping everything for myself. Make sense?))

Clio laughed. "Totally fine with me!" She walked in and opened a door. A really fancy bathroom met her eyes. "Wow!"

((Yeah, totally. But you're not bossy, there's nothing wrong with taking the lead once in a while, and I like your ideas, so it's fine by me. But just so you know, I'm going for a kind of ancient Chinese sort of style in this room))
The bathroom was red with golden ledges on it to hold toiletries and so on, and there was a antique white bathtub with golden flowers and swirls, drawing nearly all the attention onto itself. Then there was a golden sink, with a really long and wide mirror, and on top of the counter stood a small cherry tree. The toilet was a little like the bathtub, except for the fact that it was in silver. "Wow! Oh, I always loved Chinese style!"
Hope said, looking around excitedly and smelling the cherry blossom tree.

((Chinese style is awesome! Granted, I'm more of an Egyptian freak, but still!))

"I know, right!" Clio said. She opened the huge wardrobe. "Oh my gosh!" Dresses and pants and shirts, belts and weapons all hung in their designated spot.

"Oh! These are beautiful!" She said, pulling out some pretty jeans with magnificent patterns and flowers imprinted on it.

"Well, I'm going to bathe and change. I know I'm wearing a dress, but this time it's because my father made me. I really don't like them all that much." Clio said, pulling out a pair of dark blue jeans and a dark green thin strap tank top.

"I'm going to change too. I really love these jeans! Oh, and this blouse!" It was a super cute blue blouse with openings at the end of the shoulder, with long sleeves.

"Beautiful!" Clio exclaimed, heading for the bathroom. When she came out, brushing her wet hair. "I forgot to grab a knife!" She exclaimed, pulling out a belt and a knife and putting them on.

"What do you need the knife for? Are you going to cut your or something, because if so, please CUT to the chase!" Hope said, smirking and giggling.

Clio laughed. "I've trained in marshal arts and weaponry. Sometimes, you can't use sorcery in certain places and against certain enemies." Clio sat down on her bed. "I promised to explain the whole "Eternal pain" thing to you, didn't I? It is a long story though."

She picked up Hershey and snuggled him.

"Please do it now. I have time." She said, hugging Chocolate and stroking him.

"I'm only seventeen, but I've already been through a lot of pain." Clio said. "The sorceress of Eternal Pain is really kind of dumb, and it annoys the hell out of me. When I was five, I was kidnapped, and I saw things that I am not going to repeat. It really did something to my dad. We're very close. I learned how to control and use my power, Dad taught me everything. When I was fourteen, I met a boy..." She trailed off, but got a grip. "His name is, was, Tyler. He was a sorcerer as well. We became really good friends, and I loved him. He died though, when I was sixteen. I haven't healed, and no one, and I mean no one has ever been able to make me feel the same way he did. The Eternal Pain is because this pain will last forever." Clio finished. She gave a rueful smile. "I know it was brief. Sorry."


((I know it's sooo Lame and [i]sooo typical[i] but I honestly can't think of anything else right now.....))

She smiled sadly. "No, it's okay. That must have been hard. I'm sorry." She paused as dropped Chocolate onto the bed and hugged Cleo. She let go and continued.
"I haven't really been in that kind of pain... But you can't say my life has been a dance on roses."
She said, picking up Chocolate again.

Clio smiled. "seems like we have more in common than we thought."

Hope could turn out to be a really good friend.
