Chapter 1: A Typhoid Taste 

In a dream; Aynia was training to get stronger but she almost messed up when she heard a knock at her door! "Sweetheart." Beira called. Aynia was finishing up as she called back, "Give me a second." She said. "Your dinner." Beira called again. "Beira! Please?" Aynia said in a strained voice. She managed to get out of her room as she has her dinner. But once again, Aynia trained herself hard until it was dark out. Beira came in. "Sweetie, you need to rest." Aynia said. "In a minute, OK? I just need to complete this." Aynia said. Beira watched her and shakes her head before shutting her door. After working on it for hours and hours, Aynia was exhausted, her mother came in all upset. "Do you have any idea what time it is?" demanded Beira. "Late. I know, but I need a little more practice." Aynia said. "You need to sleep this off." said Beira. "Beira, please leave me alone." Aynia said. "Be quiet, Aynia." Beira said with gritted teeth. "I can't sleep, OK? Can I just be left alone?" Aynia snapped. "Shut your mouth!" shouted Beira, slapping her. "It's because of those peope! I'm only trying to protect you from those people! I raised you, I  raised you to think for yourself."  She scolded. Aynia glares at her, she was going to go and brush her teeth when Beira stopped her. "Honey, wait. I just...I don't want you to go to bed. Mother has been feeling like crap." She explained. "Beira, stop! I don't want you to smother me so much that you're giving me a lot of issues! You're not my mother." Aynia explained. One day when she got home, Beira was waiting for her and demanded to know where Aynia was. "Beira, relax! I just needed to find a place so I went to--" She started to say but Beira interrupted with a horror expression and made accusations to her. "It's a boy, isn't it? It's all about this boy? I knew it would be boys. I knew it!" spat Beira. Then, Aynia woke up as she was shaken by the dream and told her mother what she dreamt about. But things got very complicated as Aynia learns that she is being offered a job with Beira, who claims to be overjoyed. Aynia is repulsed and shock, her mother is stunt and believes Beira is manipulating Aynia and will put the blame on her mother. Aynia refuse this offer of Beira but it gets worse when she becomes nasty to her. Aynia was mad and she went off to get away from the awful messages she sent! One day, a saving grace came to her. Her cellphone rang and she answered it: "Hello?" "Aynia, it's me. It's that time again, Part 2 will be arranged. And I got more competitors here, are you ready to come tomorrow?" Clidna said. Aynia grinned, "You bet I am." She confirms. "Great! See you then." Clidna said. After the girls hang up; Aynia decided to go for a walk. While she was walking, a car came next to her and it was Beira. "Oh no." thought Aynia, she tried to walk faster but Beira called out: "Wait!"

As she was about to get back; Aynia is attacked by the Dearg Due creatures as she was about to fight back until someone took them down in an animaliastic matter. Aynia couldn't believe it, it was a girl who is half human and half Dearg Due. The girl glances over at her, she was pale faced and her whole body was covered in bandages. Her left side of her face was bandaged, her wrists were bandaged, her sides of the abdomenal area were wrapped up too and her knees were wrapped up too. Her hands looked like claws and there was more bandages wrapped around the bridge of her nose while also her bare feet as well as her back of the spine was bandage too. There was blood dripping from her mouth. Seeing this; Aynia completely froze with fear but managed to talk to her: "Hi, I'm Aynia." She said. The Dearg Due girl stood up like a human and moved her head side to side as it cracked before smiling as she said, "Hi, I'm Penelope Deimos. Call me Penny." Aynia was stunt, "You can talk?" She gasped. Penny giggled, "Duh! 'Course I can!" She replied. Aynia smiled and got to know the girl better. Later, the two girls became close after talking for quite awhile. "So, let me repeat myself, you're not afraid of me?" Penny asked. She and Aynia were next to each other, lying as they stared at the ceiling. "No." Aynia answered. "How can you be so nonchalantly about this?" Penny said with such surprise. Aynia chuckles, "What am I supposed to feel?" She inquired. "Scared? Freak out?" suggested Penny. "I've seen lots of scary, freaky things. This nothing to me." Aynia said, shrugging. Penny was amazed to hear this, "Wow, you must be experienced." She said. Aynia laughed, "You have no idea." Soon, Penny was laughing with her too. It was all awkward silence, the two friends weren't sure what to say to one another but there's something that was lingering in the back of Aynia's mind: "So, anybody else knows about it?" She asked. Penny shook her head, "Only one person." She said. Aynia looked at her, "Who is it?" She asked. "His name is Raja J. Peri, my 'boss'." said Penny, "He didn't see me...You know, rip apart anyting weird." Aynia looked at her with a disbelief look on her face, "He knew all along?" She exclaimed. Penny grinned, "Oh yeah." She answered. Then, she begin to tell her story on how she became like this, she was part of the incident from the beach. It started on every morning, Penny was getting ready to head to the beach with some friends, she had planned this with her pals for months and the day had finally approached. They were having a good time at the beah. Playing volleyball, building sand castles, and suntanning or swimming in the ocean. Penny thought it was so great until one of her friends are getting out of the ocean as they think that something is wrong with the water. Then, it looked like her feet were torned from the flesh off and it made Penny almost screamed, "What the hell happened?" She asked. "Penny, there is something wrong with this friggin' water!" Her friend protested. Just then, people were shouting and screaming as Penny was terrified to see what happened. There, she saw a young girl run in with the surf, screaming, her skin melting over her bikini. A portly man in a swimsuit ran in the water and fell. When his arms came up they were bone to the elbow, with great flaps of dissolving skin hanging like cloth. A young man pulled his tiny daughter in by the arms, dragging behind her the stumps that had been her legs. One of the victims, who was a father watched them come in, running, thrashing, falling, all of their skin melting from their horrified faces and revealing the white bone beneath. And the doctors arrived in scrubs and protective gear managed to 'help' the people but Penny knew something was off about them and was about to leave when she tripped and fell in the water, which caused what happened to her face and body. 

When she woke up, she saw she was hook up to a drip and she tried to escape. They managed to capture her again and spent many hours studying her, using very un-delicate methods. She watched them and made no attempt to hide her feelings, however her only goal appeared to be to try to figure out a way to tell Lord knows who about us. The building was not primarily built to keep anyone out. It was built to keep her in. And today she escaped. Later; Penny told her about what she saw in her new life as a Dearg Due at the time: The fairy blue blood officer's vehicle had gotten a call to come check out a house a few blocks away.  A neighbor had reported hearing a little girl shouting and screaming from inside. When he arrived on the scene, the only thing out of place was an open front door. He called for backup and was waiting for them to arrive until the sounds of gunshots inside alerted him. He quickly escalated the call and moved inside the house, searching room to room. He found himself in what was clearly a little girl's room. Cute posters dotted the walls, a small playhouse and a plastic car with a small plastic woman sat on the floor, and on the bed was a litter of stuffed animals. He was going to move on to the next room until he heard a tapping coming from the closet. He cautiously opened the closet door and saw a girl crying inside. He told her not to worry, that he was a policeman, and showed her his badge. "The dark man isn't far," whispered the little girl, loudly. "Don't worry, I'll keep you safe. Let's get away from the dark man together, okay little girl? What's you're name?" asked the police man. "I'm not a little girl!" she shout-whispered again. "Oh, you are a big girl then?" he asked and smiled. The closet door slammed behind him, plunging the small room into pitch darkness. The officer heard a faint growl and felt warm breathing on the back of his neck. "No," he heard the girl's voice from somewhere, "I'm bait." A young girl is playing in her bedroom when she hears her mother call to her from the kitchen, so she runs downstairs to meet her mother. As she’s running through the hallway, the door to the cupboard under the stairs opens, and a hand reaches out and pulls her in. It’s Penny. She whispers to her child, “Don’t go into the kitchen. I heard it too and your mother is dead.” Nal got the girl out of there and she meets with her boss, Raja, who stitched her back up. He told her that some creepy woman name Beira was up to something evil, something bad that she did to the monsters and explained about the monsters: The Dearg Due were craving for flesh and blood, but the scary part was coming up. The Dearg Due monsters were mindless animals intent tearing into people's skin and muscles. But nobody knew that the Dearg Due had a mind though. One mind. The mind of the beast, and it's far more intelligent. It controls them. All of them. Like the mind is like a legion of demons, like the hive intelligence. It was beyond creepy. This might rings some bells to Aynia, who tells her that it was possible Beira was responsible for the loss of innocent lives by the hand of other creatures she sent out to kill people. Penny realized how bad the situation would resulted, she realized something was crazy is coming! "Why is Beira doing this? What kind of achievement is this she's trying to do?" demanded Aynia. Penny turned to her omniously, "You mean you don't know?" She said. Aynia shook her head so Penny got up and walked over as she pulled out a fairytale book. She flipped through the pages and showed Aynia of the story of Snow White. "According to the tale, the stepmother wishes to be the fairest of them all, not Snow White. She was so jealous and wanted all the beauty for herself." Penny explained. Aynia was terrified as she realized all this dread will make Beira to be more beautiful than before. Beira wanted to look beautiful forever as she feared of getting older and older so the only way to do all this was to sacrifice a lot of innocent people. The beach, all those people, the incident with the ship, all the people's bodies were torn apart which were found in the water. Aynia couldn't help but wonder, "Could Mama Frost Beira is possibly the Vain Queen from the Snow White fairy tale?" She thought. That night after her day with Penny and decided to return home, Aynia had a dream of Beira as the Queen wanting to take the heart of the Queen of Banshees Clidna, who resembled Snow White. 
Aynia got to meet with Clidna and told her what happened with her encounter with Beira. Clidna was irked by this as she vows to make her pay one day. While Aynia helps her out with organizing the files; Clidna cam across one file and her face fell. "Ah, Typhoid Busters. Talk about poison." Clidna remarked darkly. Aynia looked confused, "Typhoid Busters? Who are they?" She asked. Clidna looked at her and said, "The most powerful elite team, those guys are friggin' A-class, like royalty. You better stay away from them, they're like a drug--A familiar taste of poison." Aynia was intrigued, "Hmm." She said. Clidna pulled out a file and put it down on the table with pictures, "Here's the file on them....Gerret Cathair, he is an undercover mole of Typhoid. You can't know if he's a friend, enemy, but you can't trust him. At all! Skatha Marion, the Dark Faerie Lady. Exotic, sexy, deadly, crepuscular chick. She's as lethal as a belladonna or a white oleander. A hot femme fatale, she plays manipulative games with others." She explained. Aynia nodded, "Sounds serious." She said. Clidna moved on with more pictures and information: "Rodolf Haken, the brute who can beat up anyone. He's a muscle bound meathead. Caius Petrov, the clever guy with brains and wit. Better watch out for him, he's pretty sneaky. Lynette Stelios, she's OK. She's quiet, but she seems snobby. Both virtuous and sexy. And she can kick ass too--A martial artist." Aynia was astounded, "Nice." She remarked. "Mmm-hmm!" Clidna said with a nod, she pulled out more information as she continued to talk: "This brooding, dark haired, calm, stoic, but he's third in command. His name is Freyr Dennis." Aynia looked at the photo as she smiled, "Dark haired, brooding boy? I'm game. I wouldn't mind fighting him." Aynia joked. Clidna giggled a little, "Yeah, the ladies are pretty crazy about him--everytime he's around. Oh, and he's not the only one...Look at this...." She said, handing him a photo. Aynia took a look and her eyes bulged wide, "Oooh, yum-my!" She said. "Taran Maldwyn, this guy is a troublemaker and a jerkass. Looks aren't everything, so don't trust him. Ever!" Clidna informed her friend. Aynia smiled, "Noted." She said, giving her a thumbs up. "And last but not least is none other than Bricriu Arsene." Clidna said. Aynia glanced at her with a perplexed look. "Who?" She asked. "Bricriu Arsene, but his gang calls him Bryce." explained Clidna. "Oh, I see." said Aynia. "Here, this is what he looks like." Clidna said, holding out a photo. When Aynia looked at it; she almost screamed. "This is him." She gasped. The image, it looked so familiar to her but it had to be a dream....Aynia pinched her skin, it hurt but this was no dream. This was real, the killer from her visions, could it be possible? It was all coming back to her! She clutched her head, "This is him....It's him, he's the one....I don't believe it....I don't believe it....I can't.....It's him, he's the one....I don't believe it....I don't believe it....I can't...." Aynia said over and over again, like a mantra. She remembers it all: 

The girl push herself away from the deranged psychotic killer. She's scared our of her wits and she wanted out of this place, The killer just chuckled seeing her expression. He was happy that he could scare her. This female victim have irritated him quite a lot, but strapped in this straitjacket he didn't have much to do, rather than wait for the rescue personnel. The girl looked around the room, to try and find something that would help you get out, but she knew there was nothing as such, otherwise she would have escaped long before. She was about to give up when she heard voices calling her name, she responded shouting and soon people broke in the room she was in bringing her and the killer out of there, she was soon taken away from there following a brief interrogation as she met her worried family and friends. The girl was taken back home, and after she freshen up and she sits down on her couch to watch some TV. But she becomes horrified as she comes to learn from the news that the killer has escaped killing three people in the process and injuring many. People were being informed and were told to stay inside there houses with their doors and windows properly locked. The girl rush back to her bedroom to check the window. The girl sighed when she found her window was locked securely. She plopped down on her bed as she wanted to sleep now only to be jolted awake by a shuffling sound near the foot of her bed. She looked in front of her to see the infamous killer smiling evilly at you with his knife raised above his head, he swiftly pressed the blade against her throat as his other hand clasped her mouth, muffling a scream. The girl stare at him wide-eyed, shaking as she waited for his next move. The killer chuckled seeing her, coarsely dragging the knife along her throat, slitting it open. He chuckled as life slowly drew away from her eyes and her lifeless body slumped into the pool of her own blood. He sighed happy with his own work as he wrote on the walls with your blood, 'FEAR'. He walked up to her lifeless body and sat down beside it, "Well Janice, you had this coming, you made such a good kill! You were perfect for my next prey! I loved that fear in your eyes! That is why I decided to kill you first as my prey after my long entrapment! Congrats!" He said laughing maniacally to himself as he climbed down her window walking in the dark of the night as he looked for his next victim. On the news; the reports are in about the death of Janice Rowe, who was held hostage by the killer. Now, another girl has been kidnapped. Her name is Lindsey. The masked guy lunged at her hearing her question, he pinned her against the floor, "What I feel is explainable." He said in a husky tone. His tone made the girl shiver. She was scared of him, very much. He was menacing enough to make tears run down her cheeks. She trembled under him, causing him to just smirk. "Please, let me go. Please." The girl begged. The masked guy tsked through his mask, "I can't seem to let you go Lindsey." He whispered in a needing tone filled with raw hunter instinct. 

The killer was pacing back and forth in the room trying to find a way out of this place. "Mr. Killer-boo!" The girl purred making the infamous killer slightly cringe in disgust, "Don't call me that you woman" He shrieked as he tried frantically to yank off the plank from the boarded window. The ditzy girl pouted slightly, "Why can't I, Mr. Killer-boo?" She asked earning another growl from the killer. "I swear if you don't stop calling me that then I am going to kill you" He spat at her as he yanked off the plank from the window. "Ooohh!" She exclaimed somehow excited by what he said. The killer shook his head as he yanked off the last plank from the window, "Finally" He muttered as he tried to jump off the window, he was stopped by her pulling him by his wrist. "Don't leave me here Mr. Killer-boo!" She said hugging his arm. "That's it!" He snapped and pushed you to the ground, pinning her. The lovestruck, ditzy girl was taken aback but she blushed deeply as you thought he was going to kiss her, she closed her eyes and pushed her face forward. Seeing her made the killer sick in the stomach, he growled as he fished out the pocket knife she had with her from her pocket and he slit her throat harshly. She opened her eyes in shock as to what happened now clearly afraid of him, she started to back off of him which made the killer smile with a malicious intent. He crouched to her softly and stabbed her heart, she screamed loudly and slowly fade into darkness. She opened her eyes slowly to find herself in your room, your wounds treated and bandaged. She tried to sit up only to meet with pain, she laid back down and closed her eyes. The girl shivered thinking about her encounter, even though frightful, a blush seem to creep to her face. "Mr. Killer-boo." She said out loud chuckling softly. "I thought you had your lesson woman." The killer's voice boomed near her ears making her jump, she looked at him with fear in her eyes as he leaned close pressing the cold blade against her bandaged throat, drawing blood from the fresh wound. "But apparently not." he said looking at the girl, as he harshly pulled the knife at her throat, she tried to back away but couldn't. It was coming in her mind, like a photo developing....The killer was a skinny teenager and has pale skin, moppy black hair and lavender eyes. He wore a hoodie, a shirt, and jeans. He wore shoes too. And a scar on his neck. He had a psychotically smirk on his face. Clidna looked at her friend with concern, "What's wrong?" She asked. Aynia didn't say anything but she was mumbling to herself, "This guy....He's the one that killed those girls!" Clidna looked alarmed, "Aynia!?" She gasped. Aynia trembled, "He's the most venomous person of Typhoid....The poison....The toxin.....A virus...." She muttered to herself. Clidna took hold of the girl's shoulders. "Aynia, calm down sweetie. Aynia, are you OK? Talk to me." She said. Aynia's eyes rolled back as she closed them and she was rambling a little like a psychotic person: "My heart is beating so fast, it's almost like nuclear.....My pulse is scurrying....My head is hazy and addled....I feel my insides, they're like butterflies....My face feels hot and rosy...Why does it feel passioinate and fervid but in a good way....?" Then, she felt someone firmly squeezing her shoulders and a loud voice shouted: "Aynia!" Aynia gasped and looked up, it was Clidna with her concern face looking back at her. "Are you OK? You sound like a mental case." She asked. Aynia nodded as she steadied herself, "Sorry, talking to myself." She apologized. "OK, don't lose your head now. Be on your toes if you ever get the chance to fight them all right?" Clidna warned. Aynia saluted as she smiled, "Roger, Your Banshee-ness." She replied. 

The next day, Some guys get into trouble with some bullies: A leader, and his henchmen. They start picking on the guy and his friends but Aynia couldn't stand the taunting any longer! She marches over as she couldn't believe who it was: The leader was that jerkass hunk, "No way, it's Taran Maldwyn!" thought Aynia. Then she saw a familiar section of two others. "Shit just got real! It's Caius Petrov! And Rodolf Haken!" thought Aynia. Just before Taran could attack, Aynia blocks his attack and send him backwards. Jackal was stunt by this, Aynia glares him. "You want to beat them? You're going have to go through me first." she said. Taran looks at her before grinning, "Ohhh, I'm so scared. A fairy's gonna hurt me." He taunted and his friends chuckled. Aynia's eyebrow raised, "I'm not just a fairy, pal!" She replied. Taran simpers at her more as well as his friends, "Huh? Then what are ya then?" He asked. "Well, your about to find out." Aynia said with a playful grin. "Bring it!" Taran cried, charging at her but Aynia dodges the attack. "Whoa, she's fast!" exclaimed Rodolf. "Not good enough, I can handle her!" bragged Taran. "You should give up because I can defeat you." Aynia said. But she was punched hard, Taran and his boys laughed at her but they became afraid as Aynia's appearance changed. Her heart was beating, it was like it was nuclear and her blood was pulsing once again! Her eyes turned amber for a moment as she let out her Banshee Screech. In another second; Taran and the others were terrified. Aynia turned back to normal as she almost fainted but woke up in the medics and she was fine. Later after she recovered; she was waiting with other girls in the room when someone enters. "Aynia Sumarr?" A voice called out. Aynia whirled around and said, "Yes, that's me." But her jaw dropped at who she was looking at. "Freyr Dennis?" She thought. As if on cue, the girls squealed as there was a lot of unison: "Oh my! It's him!" swooned the first. The second whispered, "No shit, it's Freyr Dennis."Aynia rolled her eyes, she leaned next to Clidna and said, "And the fangirls go wild." Smiling; Clidna replied in a low voice, "Yup." Aynia noticed Freyr walked over to her and said, "Come with me, please. I mean, if you don't mind." Aynia shrugged, "Um...OK." She said. After a while of talking, Aynia was shocked to hear what he said. "What? You want me to join Typhoid Busters?" Aynia asked. Freyr smiled, "Yes, that's exactly right." He answered. "Why me?" inquired Aynia. "I saw you fighting Taran and I must say, you are a splendid fighter. We think you're incredible." Freyr said. Aynia smirked, "Sure, right." She said. "Why don't you think about it and come back?" Freyr suggested. Aynia nodded as she walks away, unknown what might happen next. Aynia's cell phone rang and she answered it. "Aynia, it's me. Your next fight is arranged." Clidna replied in a chipper voice. Aynia nodded, "Gotcha." She confirmed. She hung up and head over to the arena. Her phone beeped and on it says a name followed by a computer voice: "ASLAUG VALRAVN." And another voice said, "I will make the world free from man!" Aynia faced Aslaug, who is a young lady who despises man and wants to create a world equal to women. Aynia fights her but she makes contact with Aslaug's skin and could see her memories: Aslaug never had a surname, she was half Valkyrie and half human. Daughter of human knight Siegfried and Valkyrie Brynhilde. After her birth; Aslaug was abused as a child by her father. And Brynhilde, who also suffered a domestic violence in her life. 

What catches Aslaug's attention is the brothel/asylum where young, teenage girls are taken into a human contraband where people can see them through a pane of glass where the people, known as predators, could pick their choices of the girls that were dressed in red and have a number pinned to their dresses. Every day, the young girls had their childhood stolen and their innocence violated. These poor girls, sitting and blankly watching cartoons on TV. No light in their eyes, no life in them, they were vacant, and sorrow covered the girls' faces with nothingness. But only one girl who wasn't watching TV as she looked out with a piercing gaze. There was determination in that glance and still life in her, she's still fighting. This moved Aslaug and she convinced her mother as well as her sisters to rescue these girls which they agree. It didn't take too long for the people at that place to noticed someone was causing trouble with bombs. "The hell is that?" A guard said. Another burst in, "Trouble!" He said, "Someone's in here!" The guard got up and followed him, "What kind of maniac would come in and mess things up in here?" He demanded, "Any idea who it is?" The other guard shook his head, "Nobody we know but if this person thinks their getting out alive, they'll be begging for mercy!" He said. Other guards were being thrown around by a red symbiotic of blood, then the person responsible emerged, long hair and full lips. "Hello boys!" She greeted them. The guards couldn't believe it, "Aslaug!" They exclaimed. Then, Aslaug fell on her knees. "I surrender, take me!" She begged. The two other guards they came in looked surprised, "You serious?" One of them asked. Aslaug nodded, looking defeated. "Yup." She said weakly. The guards wouldn't be told twice, "Arrest her men!" And they did. As they were leading her away; Aslaug looked around with her eyes before she dropped to the ground. "Get up, now!" The guard instructed however Aslaug looked up as a sly smile appeared on her face and tackled the guy to the ground. The others are shocked to discover this: "Aslaug's loose!" One of them said, he turned his men and instructed, "Alert the commander!" Meanwhile; Aslaug was still fighting the guard, "Come on, come on! Give it to me baby!" She took him down swiftly. Aslaug chuckled to herself darkly, "Date night frightens you huh?" She said. Dancing around and humming to herself before pointing at the camera, the doors opened and Aslaug cartwheeled in as the guards and its commander were about to corner her. The doors shut and locked as Aslaug appeared on the big screen, "Welcome to my world, gentlemen! I set a trap and you sprang it beautifully!" She exclaimed. "How did you--?" The guard started to say but Aslaug held up a card key--Three of them. "I had some help! And let me tell you, this party is about to throw down, and this place is about to explode into action and life. Let's be real, I'm in charge, because I'm willing to take extreme measures to make sure my demands are met." She explained to the baffled guards, "I'm going to create a hole in the wall where nobody will judge. Besides, you men are glad to die for love but don't try anything with me. I got these guys at my enriched beck and call as they will let me know what the hell you guys are doing or up to for that matter." Aslaug smiled as she explains all this. "You can't do this to us!" One of the guards said. "Oh yes, I can!" Aslaug redistributed back. "It's our base!" A second one protested. Aslaug placed her hands on her hips and cocked them as she said, "A base with girls with mental problems are being used as tools? Toys like bot dolls? I don't think so! I mean, I have evidence on this baby and oh my, look at this! This stuff is scandalous! Look!" She exclaimed, holding photos that shocked the others. Then she looked at the guards and gave them a smirk. "And another thing.....Come and get me boys!" As she said this; Aslaug laughed and ran off. She and her group of Valkyrie sisters freed others girls by the names of Tamara, Artemis, Draupadi, Freya, and Minerva. Aynia lets her go as she defeats Aslaug. 

In the meantime; Etain’s not attracted to any guy's arrogance. He’s extremely intelligent and understands things that are complicated. On the flip side, it’s hard for him to comprehend the simple things in life like knowing how to please a women. Etain isn’t looking for a superficial connection; she wants real, true love from a genuinely good and well rounded man. Being really smart is great and all, but that alone won’t get you very far with her. The guy is probably smart enough not to understand Etain. The second guy she’s met obviously cares way too much about his looks. He never leaves home without a mirror, a comb, and some extra hold gel in his hair for fear that it might get a little bit messy. Maybe Etain finds him reasonably attractive, but it’s things like these that drive her away. At any rate, she won’t be terribly impressed by good looks alone. Even if the guy who’s trying to impress her is gorgeous, that’s not going to be enough to satisfy her high standards if he’s not great in other ways too. Etain is not taken with looks or talk — she wants a man that can make her feel good, both inside and out. The take-home is that is not worthy for her. Most likely won’t really impress Etain unless you can keep her warm at night. She’s only making fun of shallow men who consider themselves superstars. He can find someone that is way better than the girl that basically can do whatever she wants. The world knows that she is a crazy bitch, she does every thing she wants that comes to her mind! All she wants is to lose control of herself, and let go. Etain is weird, she laughs herself to sleep which is the complete opposite of what most sad people do. The adrenaline rush she gets when doing dangerous things makes her feel alive. Etain wants to do things to the extreme. She wants people to push her to edge just to feel alive! It’s boring to do what others expect this guy to do. For the time being, Etain looked around to see the colors in the air as she danced around, feeling magic in the air of how beautiful this place. However, she was daydreaming so much that she didn't watch where she was going. Because she bumped into someone else: "Aaah!" The person said. "Yipe!" Etain yelped. Etain and the other person stumbled down as Etain cries, "Good Lor--Whoa!" Down, down they went but they were all right. "Hey, pal! What the hell?" Etain demanded. "Sorry about that, love, you hurt?" The person said, in a hardy British voice. He was a cutie, Etain felt like a jerk to this totally attractive guy with glasses, which he was adjusting. "Hello...It's OK. I'm fine, it's no big deal." Etain apologized. "You serious, love?" asked the guy. "Yeah, my bad. And I'm dead serious." confirmed Etain. "Fascinating." The guy complimented. Etain smiled, The guy realized he forgot to introduced himself. "Oh, sorry. Cynan McKay." He introduced. Etain shake his hand, "Etain Sumarr." She said. Etain was fascinated with the guy by his accent and he bonds with her. Cynan was pretty foul mouthed, smart aleck kind of guy and he was unable to talk to girls, such as Etain. 

Cynan looked at her, "Are you OK?" He asked. "It's hard for me, you know. Sorry, I'm being too personal but I have no one....Well, I'm being exaggerating. I have friends but no one close!" Etain explained in between sobs. Cynan looked at her thoughtfully before he had an idea. "What if you stay the night? The whole night?" asked Cynan. Etain looked at him, "Really? Oh, I don't...want to be a bother."  She said stammering. "It isn't, love." Cynan said. He leads her in as Etain saw that his house had a window of a nice view of the beach. "Oh, Cynan....It's beautiful!" breathed Etain. "I know, I knew you would like staying here for the night." Cynan said. Music was playing some sort of high lonesome whistling and cold vocals set to harpsichord and strings, the singer's voice is vocals piped into a modulates and distorts them of an electric sound. Etain begin to sway a little, "Nice music, what is it?" She asked. "Caramel Dash." Cynan answered. Etain nodded, "Nice, I never heard of this band." She remarked. "It looks like you have an interest in music." Cynan said. "I do, I like music this way." Etain admitted. That night; Etain cannot sleep but she is startled to see Owen Celio in her room. Etain is not going to listen to what he is going say. Etain asked if he is here to kill her and Owen chuckles & tells her that he wasn't sent here to murder, "What would I do without you? Starve to death? I don't think so, your amazing to me." Etain says that he is a bunch of crap and says that she is going to sleep. Owen moves closer and tells her softly that she will suffer her last breath because he was sent here so she wouldn't reveal anything 'personal'. Etain moves away and replies that she will think about it. Owen turns Etain's face towards him as he leans towards her lips; whispering: "I'm not gonna bite....you." Etain kicks him and orders him to leave. Owen smirks and tells her "You'll be sorry, But someday you will have great power." Etain insists that she doesn't want it but Owen tells her that she will & disappears. Just then in the next day; Etain encounters Owen's arrogant, snobby twin sister: Morfydd Celio. Meanwhile; Aynia took a break as she went to visit her best friend, Penny Deimos. As she came to the place where she was living with 'interesting people', she knocks the door. Penny answers as she said with a smile: "Hey, you made it!" She said. Aynia smiled, looking troubled. Penny noticed, "You OK?" She asked. "I'm a little nervous." replied Aynia. She giggles and then she leads her by the hand and said, "C'mon. I'll show you around."And off they went on the tour. They went to the first room, where someone was sitting in the rocking chair. "Hello?" Aynia asked. The figure turned around and walked over but as he got closer, Aynia freaked out. The figure was a corpse of a man, he looked decay from head to toe. Aynia was so scared that he went behind Penny, who seemed unafraid by this thing. He leaned over at Aynia with annoyance and suspicious on his face. "What's with you, Missy? You act like you never seen a corpse before! Who's a corpse?" The zombie asked. Before Aynia could answer, Penny puts her hands on her hips and says, "You, Harlequin!" "Oh, I don't feel dead. I feel fine." said Harlequin. "You're not fine, you look dead. Get back to your tombstone where you belong." Penny ordered. "I ain't going until I feel dead!" Harlequin shouted. 

He went back to his rocking chair near the fireplace, his body went creaking and cracking. "He doesn't realize he was dead?" Aynia asked nervously. Penny shook her head, "Uh uh." She said. They went away as Penny showed her the next room, which is a quiet bedroom with a bed and a couch. As Aynia stepped inside; A pale figure appeared with blood oozing from his fingers! Aynia shrieked, she shivered as the pale figure waved its bloody fingers. "Bloody fingers! Blood fingers!" It cried but Penny steps in front and said, "Red Crow, What did I tell you? I thought I told you not to do that. Cool it, dude. Clean up and get a bandage!" She scolded. The white figure looked sheepish, "Sorry Penny, I'm just fooling around, you know me." said Red Crow. "Oh, I know that. That's not what I'm concern about. If people saw your fingers like that, they won't be able to stay because of hemophobia." Penny remarked. Red Crow grinned nervously, "Heh-heh. My bad!" He went away to the bathroom. The phone begin to ring, Aynia answered it: "Hello?" There was a voice that said something that made the agent's blood ice cold, "It is the Viper, I am coming up." "What?" She stuttered. Aynia hangs up and hurries along with Rose. "You scared yet?" Penny asked with a grin on her face. "I think I had enough of this. I should be getting home soon." said Aynia. "Oh, c'mon!" Penny said, "I'm just getting started." They came across an empty chimney. Where legs suddenly appeared. Then, the rest of the body, and finally the arms and the head. The thing begin to spin around and around faster and faster. Then looked into Penny's eyes, Aynia looked scared. "What do you come for?" Penny asked in a timid voice. The thing then said. "What do I come for? I come...For youuuuuu!" He tackled Penny to the floor, Penny screamed and then laughed happily, much to Aynia's confusion. "Huh?" She said. "Hahaha! Hey, Alfvid." "Hello, Penny. Sorry, the door was locked and I didn't know how to get in." explained Alfvid, "I got lost until I came across an abadoned church and went in. But I found a crazy guy laughing and I got away while going through the chimney." Penny looked around, "Where's Ingram?" She asked. Just then, some sort of white figure fell down a chimney and stood up, Aynia fell to the ground as she looked up in horror to see the creature was white and his face looked like a skull, "Pardon me, dear, is something wrong?" It asked. Aynia was so frightened that she could hardly speak. "No, he's just startled by your appearance, Ingram." Penny explained for him. The creature nodded, bowing to her, "Sorry, I mean no harm." said Ingram. Then he and Alfvid went away. Aynia looked at Penny, who grinned, "Next stop, shall we?" she asked. Aynia sighed, "Lead the way." She said, reluctantly. 


They went to the next room where they saw a fire in the fire place and only a black cat was there. "Kofri!" Penny said with a joyful squeal. "Kofri?" Aynia asked. The cat looked up, and to the agent's horror, it talked: "I see you brought a sacrifice, shall me and my friends do it now?" The cat asked. Penny shooked her finger at the cat. "No, Kofri. He's not a sacrifice. And I told you, wait until Marco comes." She said. The black cat slumped, "Fine." It said. Kofri slumped away, but Aynia called out: "Yeah, when Marco does come; tell him I couldn't wait." The cat glared at Aynia, it hissed and went away. The two girls were walking down the hallway when there was the doorbell ringing. Aynia jumped, Penny looked startled but smiled and opened the door. There, stood a short man with overalls, a bucket, and a wiper with a hat on his head. "Arawn, how are ya? Aynia, this is Arawn--The 'Viper'." introduced Penny. "What?" Aynia gaped. The small man grinned up at the disbelief Aynia, "Yes, I am Arawn the Viper. I have come to vash and vipe the vindows." Aynia smacked her forehead and laughed. "I feel stupid, maybe I'm losing it." She said. "Don't look so glum, let us all join together and help you with your feeble mind." replied Arawn. All together later on; Aynia, Penny, and the other residents of the house. It was quiet but not really spooky. Harlequin was bored, so he said: "This isn't really jolly you know! Let's dance!" Music came on. Harlequin stretched and shook himself before taking a step or two and then begin to waltz. His bones moved and cracked, his yellow teeth snapping, and his skull bouncing around.  During the dance; One of Harlequin's bones loosen and fell down. "Look at that!" Aynia said, she pointed to the bone. "Play faster!" Penny cheered, she clapped as well as the other residents did so. How he danced, and pranced, and skipped. "Whoo! Hoo! Hoo! Hoo! Ain't we having fun?" Harlequin asked.
