I suppose it gets rough before it gets fun - Tidus

First of all. There was four reason for the trouble. One, was the drinking. Two, they were on Southside. Three, they were in the wrong place at the wrong time - and last. Well, time would tell. Mariella had been walking towards her bike at the parking lot. It was late, almost midnight - and she knew Lion would start a fight with her sooner or later about this. But she knew he was off this weekend with Vanya. Which also meant that Mariella didn't have any anchor to hold her in balance, not that she would admit she needed her brother to stay sane - but she did.
They had grabbed her from behind. Perhaps it was the Serpent jacket that made her a target to other groups. These men were masked, with gargoylemasks that in the shades of the night were supposed to make this a whole lot scarier. She recognized the place. Known for its little horrorstories to scare young people and kids into not swimming in the lake. Stories were told about a sea monster in the  deep end of the lake. Mariella was a siren, she weren't scared of that legend. There was a small fire in the middle of the circle they were sat in. Everyone was blindfolded. But they were soon freed from the hood over there heads. Mariella looked around. They were seven people tied up around the fire. Everyone was sitting on their knees with their arms tied behind their backs. Mariella looked at one of the people, because she had seen him before. In the future, but still. She knew Tidus in the future, thanks to Amary and Vanya. Not that she knew him closely, she had just seen him around.
"What is your damaged?" She asked annoyed one of the people in masks that seemed to have their own plans about this meeting.
"The king has chosen you seven for the sacrifice," one of them said and stepped behind a blond girl. They slit her throat without hesitation, which spread panic out to many of the others as well. Mariella swallowed her fears as she looked at the girl falling to the ground, choking in her own blood.

Almost suffocated behind the hood, Tidus growled lowly over the whole situation and swore to himself. Getting into trouble should have been his middle name. It was getting old and he was getting tired of it! If it wasn’t crazy vampires, mafia kidnapping or lured up on mountains, then it was him getting kidnapped by maniacs! In the beginning he struggled, which the kidnappers hated and therefore knocked him out. And since he was just a banshee, it wasn’t the hardest thing in the world.
When he woke up, he still couldn’t see anything from behind the hood and sighed. Although… he could feel the warm feeling off flames licking his skin. Not in the burning kind of way, luckily. In the moment the hood was removed, he gasped out and shook his head. After that he looked around. None of these people were someone he known. So… this kidnapping was just… for fun and none of them had any connection between them? Just as he was about to open his big mouth, a girl took the words out of his mouth. He saw at her with a cocky smile and looked afterwards at the kidnappers.
The masked man on the other hand, didn´t seem so amused. Instead they step behind a innocent girls back and slit her pretty throat. In shock Tidus spread his eyes and looked up at the villains. Or whatever you could call them. His heart pounded hard in his chest. This was a new situation. One he should be quickly to get out of… now! While the men were talking, Tidus tried to get his always hidden under his sleeve knife, out so he could cut the ropes. Or… at least try to!
They said something about a king and sacrifices.
“What king?” he bluntly asked, completely ignoring the danger he was in. The dark shadow of death hang over a lot of these peoples head… it was a horrible sight, but Tidus couldn´t do anything as long he was tied down!

Most people here were strangers, even the masked people didn't have a strong bond. It seemed odd. And she was from the future. Mariella looked at Tidus when he asked what king, she wanted to know that as well - but wasn't sure with a man walking around them with a knife around them - that now was the time.
"The gargoyle king," another one answered him. Walking between two of the people around the fire. Mariella swallowed and took a deep breath in. Freaking nerds. She watched the man walk around them, like he was checking them for the weakest first. Mariella took a deep breath in and watched closely. She hated feeling scared like this. Not knowing what was going to happen. One of them put a hand on her shoulder, and she felt the cold of the blade teasing against her skin. Mariella held her breath feeling it slightly rip up her skin, but then it stopped. Mariella bit her tonuge, trying to keep herself calm. Thinking, what Lion do other than kicking these peoples asses for actually taken her in the first place. She turned her head, biting the man in the wrist with her sharp teeth. He screamed up on surprise. Only to drop the knife and threw a punch in her face. Mariella fell over, feeling the hard ground on her cheek. Not having the possibility to get up by herself, but still able to kick the masked man behind her.  She was close to the fire.
"We will give her to the sea king," one said and two came from the side to pick her up. Going towards the water. Of course they didn't know she was a siren. So the second they got long enough in the water, they regretted their choice of drowning her. It was far more the other way around. The screams echoed as you could hear the splashes in the water. But the night made it unclear what had happened. Mariella could swim away, run away. What if she didn't want to always be the one running from her emotions.. She swam closer to them, almost silent. Mariella focused some of the water to move closer to Tidus, to get his attention on her being alive. Not that he knew her, but they were in this together. If they just could get more people in the water, she could put them out of the game.
Another girl screamed as her throat was slit and the panic clearly made peoples heart explode.

If it haven´t been for the situation they were in, Tidus would have laughed his ass off to the fact that they were talking about a gargoyle king. A FREAKING GARGOYLE KING. But, he kept his mask on and just looked at the weird men. When they went over to the girl with the comment, he felt his heart drop as he expected them to know cut her throat too. He eagerly started to cut the rope their hold his wrist together. The little knife was slowly cutting through the thick rope.
Badass as she was, the girl showed a couple impressive teeth and sank them into the man’s wrist. Unfortunately, the man punched the girl in the face instead, so she felt backwards. They threw the poor girl in the water and said something about at sea king. Again… WTF!? With the screaming in the background, everything seemed so panicked and it was with a heart beating fast, that he finally cut the rope over. It felt from his wrist. He looked over at the water… what he saw made him smile. There… in the dark, he could se a silhouette of the girl from before. So, the screams haven’t been from her, but the man who dragged her there. After getting eye contact with her, he nodded, as he understood her idea. Drag people out in the water. With the second girl getting her throat slit and their attention on her, Tidus quickly cut the rope that held his feet together. As soon as that was done, he quickly stood up and whistled.
“hey nerds!”
They all went their attention to him. He smirked at them and gave them the finger. “Give this to your gargoyle king!”
In anger, they went over to him and tried to attack him, but he sneakly avoided every attacked. Smugly, he came closer and closer to the water. When one of the guys were in his reach, he grabbed the poor nerd and threw him in the water.

Everything seemed chaotic and she had no idea if she could keep her head calm the entire time. Anger made her blood boil, and in this form she needed to stay sane if she shouldn't end up like one of the sirens from the old tales. She had no intentions of starting a new diet. Tidus got free, and started getting the attention towards him, loudly, but effectively. Mariella watched them moving closer to the water, and before they could see her she vanished under the water. One of the guys were thrown in the water and she grabbed his leg to fast swim him out into the deep end. Letting him have a good ten minute swim if he wanted to not drown - or was eaten by other creatures. Mariella was fast under the water, and she was back to play the game in the matter of minutes. She showed herself by letting her head and shoulders over the surface.  Mariella took a deep breath in, before swimming towards a rock that was placed near them. She crossed her arms as she laid them on the rock.
"Upon one summer's morning. I carefully did stray, Down by the Walls of Wapping, Where I met a sailor gay," she started to sing and tilted her head a little innocent to the side. "Conversing with a young lass. Who seem'd to be in pain, Saying, William, when you go. I fear you'll ne'er return again," the sirens voice lured almost everyone. "My heart is pierced by Cupid - I disdain all glittering gold. There is nothing can console me. But my jolly sailor bold," she continued singing and watched the men running into the water like fools to get to her before the others. She watched them going crazy, almost forgetting how to swim - because all that mattered was to get to her. Mariella looked up and caught Tidus eyes.
"Cut the others loose," she yelled at him before jumping back into the water with a splash, making the men snap out of their trance and panic as they were in deep water. Under the water she looked around, and moved her hand to controle the water - so she could make a wave strong enough to take them deeper out. But there it was. The smell. Her siren like features turned to her face and she felt the fangs and the hunger as drops of blood floated out in the lake. She swan towards the man who was bleeding, but snapped out of it. Not the time or the place. So she swam back to Tidus. She used her arms to get herself back on land.
"It'll take them some time before they get back up here. But it was way to easy.. there most be a 'game master' or something silly. No one makes that stuff up by themselves," she pointed out and waited for her legs to get back. "is it weird to ask you to undress one of the dead bodies, so I can get a pair of pants? Because I would really appreciate that effort," she asked as she used her arms to cover her slightly naked skin. She still had her top on, but her tail had ripped her pants into pieces.

Luckily for Tidus, the guys didn´t seem to catch up to his plan, before it was to late. The poor nerds found themselves in big trouble, when the siren dragged them under water and let them become a part of the lake’s destiny. Unless they were quick enough to get out of the water.
When one of the nerds pushed Tidus into the water, the blonde coughed and stood on all fours. Desperately, the nerd tried to hold Tidus down, just to get an elbow pushed back up in his nose. Tidus quickly stood up again and now kicked the poor man there was laying down. The blonde’s clothes were now wet and cold! He growled annoyed and looked around. Here he saw the girl from before sitting on a stone… she was about to sing! Siren. Quickly he closed out the song, by putting his hands up to his ears. Or, he hoped it would work. It seemed to work. Unlike the other men, Tidus weren’t running out in the water like and desperate fool! He instead started to cut the other victims loose. They cried and whispered thank you, before they got up on their trembling legs and started to run away. Or some of them did. Others decided to stay near Tidus and Mariella. After all, they seemed to be able to protect them, if other things should happen.
“Go! Don´t stay here, don´t be stupid!” he sniggered at those who stayed.
The poor people just shared a look, but they decided to keep standing in front of Tidus, with arms crossed and bodies trembling. Tidus was about to say something more, when he heard a new voice behind him. He looked over his shoulder and was relieved to see the siren.
As she told him, he went over and undressed one of the corpses. Or, he relieved them of their pants at least. He walked over to her and gave her a pair of jogging pants. Comfy and useful in this situation.
“A game master… You gotta be shitting me… If it wasn´t enough with a freaking gargoyle king!” he said and shoke his head.
“We should… go… now…” it sounded shakily from one of the other victims. She stood there, shaking like a chihuahua.
Tidus was about to say something, when an arrow, sharp and fast pushed itself in the poor girl’s brain. She felt to the ground, limp and cold.
“Holy fuck!” yelled Tidus up and jumped a few steps back. Now the panic spread. The people who had decided to stay, now ran around, screaming and crying.
Out from the shadows came a bigger silhouette. One who was also wearing one of those mask.
“That must be the game master,” mumbled Tidus annoyed. He looked at the siren. “Should we fight or run?”
With the knife in Tidus hand, it clearly showed that he was ready to fight and slit the guys throat. If they ran, there would be a change of them getting shot by an arrow.

Mariella dressed herself in the jogging pants and got on her feet. She breathed out and looked at Tidus. She had no idea what to expect from this situation. Normally she was armed but going in the water her butterfly knife was now by the lakes bottom. Mariella turned around looking at the girl who talked. And arrow flew through the air and ended the poor girls life by seconds. Mariella gasped and looked to see if she in the night could see anything - but she didn't have night vision. Run or fight, a urge to just jump right back in the water and be done - it was tempting. But she wasn't a coward. Maybe when it came to be honest about emotions but not in a matter like this.
"Well.. they know our faces. If we run now - we will be running forever," she hated to admit that - but it was the truth. She looked at the masked fella who walked out of the shadows. Mariella took a deep breath in and just listened to the wind. Feeling the nature around them. Feeling the night, the shadows. Mariella was basically in her powers most powerful place.
"Then lets show this game master, that we are in controle of the game now," she said as she stepped forward. An arrow flew through the air and hadn't it been for her good connection to the elements around her by this moment, she would have known to send a wind up the block the strength of the attack. The arrow stopped in the air right in front of her. Mariella grabbed the arrow and put it down. That was far to close. Her heart was beating like crazy. "This is insane. What is worse is that we can't see them," she hissed and narrowed her eyes. Or maybe they could. Mariella closed her eyes and breathed out. By having the experience of knowing the elements was something you needed to feel, perhaps she could feel the shadows as well. So Mariella connected with the shadows, the darkness around them. It was a weird feeling in some ways, and others it was natural.
"There are two with bows. One in front and one waiting on our left hand. Then there is the game master. Go after the king. I'll see what I can do about the archers," she then said. As she controlled the shadows she made them attack the archers, choking them with their own shadow. Or just enough for them to actually just get knocked out. After that she opened her eyes to focus on the event happening around them. Tidus and the so called game master. Mariella looked at fire. If she could get the fire to light more up, they could actually see the enemy. So she ran to the fire and put her hands out and breathed carefully. Fire was the hardest element to manipulate - but she manged to make the flames grow and made them light up the area around them so they could see the man in the costume. The man took out two swords.
"Are you taking a piss at me? Seriously!" Mariella said annoyed. Kiwi slangs was much funnier than English slags, and she was part Kiwi.

Tidus smiled at Mariellas words. With other words, they should stay and fight! He couldn´t have been more satisfied! The smile on his lips just kept growing to one filled with triumph. And her little line didn´t make it smaller. He nodded to it and stepped forward with her. It was time to send the gargoyle king back in time and show him who was in control!
A new arrow threw through the air, cut its way through the heavy and had almost hid Mariella, if she haven´t been totally awesome and catched it. Tidus whistled impressed and looked around. “I would do anything to be able to see in the dark.” He hissed and stood now by her side.
The girl suddenly became so quiet. To Tidus it almost sounded like she was smelling or feeling the air around her. Maybe it had something to do with her ability. All of sudden she could tell where the enemies were. Tidus smiled widely and placed him in position, ready to run towards the game master. “You are amazing! See you on the other side Ariel!” he said happily and smirked at her. Before she could answer him, he would be gone, left to go fight the game master. Even though he couldn´t see anything, he would jump right at the man, which seemed to actually surprise the king. He was hiding behind a mask but Tidus knew better! Smoothly and elegant, Tidus danced with his knife and tried to cut the king. Sometimes the blade hit and sometimes the king missed.
When the fire growled up like a monster, the king was shortly surprised, but pulled out his two swords. Tidus took the man’s distraction, to once again jump at the king, this time knocking him down to the ground. He dropped the swords and they were now out of the man’s range. Which made it easier for Tidus to hold him down.
“Move one muscle more and I´ll slit your throat,” hissed Tidus at the man. The blonde pressed his knife dangerously close to the throat.
The man growled back, clearly annoyed with the outcome of the night. “I´m the king! How dare you!”
Tidus looked up at Mariella. “Can you believe this air head?”

Mariella looked at them and as she had the fire under control, she moved closer to them and sat down next to Tidus. She narrowed her eyes looking at the 'king' - he seemed out of his mind. But it was hard to tell these days, whom weren't just batshit crazy and who was under some sort of manipulation.
"This has been some serious crazy shit," mumbled she to herself. It was hard not going full on siren. People had died. She could have died, that feeling made her swallow. Would anyone actually had found the body? She clenched her fists and got up by the sound of a car driving towards them. She lifted a hand up to block the light from the car. Mariella kicked the king in the face so he passed out.
"What are you waiting for. Jump in," said a man from the car. Gary. Mariella narrowed her eyes who was this guy.
"Who is that?" She asked Tidus to if he knew this person. Gary smiled at Tidus, "hello Tidus. nice to see you again."

//#returngary #thereturnofgary !

The siren seemed to have a lot on her mind. Something in her eyes told Tidus this. When he was about to say something to her, when a light all of sudden blinded him and made him lose concentration. He still had the blade pressed again the throat of the king though. In the beggining, Tidus couldn´t see shit. But as the light faded and the man in the car spoke, he soon realised what was going on. And he could not believe his eyes! He sighed and stood up, dragging the king along with him, still with the knife dangerously close to the pulsing throat.
"I guess you could say I know him," he answered the siren calmly and smiled at her. Here he pushed the king towards the car and pressed him up against the side of it. "Gary... what on shit biscuit are you doing here?" He looked in the through the car window and talked loudly. Just to make sure the weirdo Gary heard him. Here he looked at the siren. "He is good enough, let´s get in the car." he nudge Mariella to get in the shotgun seat. Then Tidus could sit in the back and make sure the king didn´t do anything stupid.
as soon they were in the car, Tidus looked seriously at the king and let the knife dance around on his adams apple. "You better start talking on why we were there and who the fuck you are..."
The king just giggled hysterically. "I´m the gargoyle king!"
Tidus rolled his eyes and was so tempted to just slit the guys throat. The blonde now looked up in the mirror. "How did you find out about this place Gary?"

// #thereturnofgary!

Mariella was confused but kept her questions to herself for now. But Tidus said they could go with him so she jumped on the front seat. Gary looked terrified at the clearly crazy person. As soon as they were in the car Gary drove.
"A thank you Gary, you saved our ass, would be nice," Gary complained a little, Mariella sighed, "well you picked us up. You didn't really save anyone," she just said rolling her eyes a little looking out the window. "Who pissed her off?" He asked looking in the front mirror to look at Tidus. Mariella looked at Gary.
"I don't know, maybe a dusin masked guys.. almost getting killed.. and for the record I'm not deaf. He should just be happy that I didn't rip his throat out.. or yours," Gary looked scared at her, "eyes on the road grandma," Mariella sighed. She looked back at Tidus.
"Where the fuck did you pick him up?" She hissed in confusion.
"GPS. And Zitora called me, saying she had a weird dream - that you might need help. So she asked me to find you, she is busy helping her sister."

Tidus was not in the mood for Garys weird behavior right now! But before he could say anything, the siren took word out of his mouth and made him smile up at her in the mirror.
"Just drive Gary... she´s been through a lot," was the only answer Tidus could. The gargoyle king, gamemaster... whatever, just sat still and whistled a little melody. To make him stop, Tidus pressed the knife even closer to his throat, which made the man gasp in suprise.
The word grandma, made Tidus giggle a little and look at Mariella, who was already looking back at him. "Where I picked him up? HA! I would more say he picked me up... he is a friend of a... uhm... a girl I once met..." here he looked at Gary. "I´m suprised she remembers me tho!" he put all his attention back at Mariella again. "What is your name btw? I can´t keep calling you Ariel you know..." kindly he smiled at her and waited for her answer. He had no idea that she knew a little about who he was. He had no idea about the kids from the future, at all!
"I will not go back to prison!" the gamemaster suddenly yelled up. This made Tidus look weirdly at him. But before Tidus could stop the man, he pressed the knife through his own throat and gurgled up blood. Suprised Tidus jumped up in his seat and pulled the knife to him. "SHIT!"
Blood ran down Tidus hands as the gargoyle king slowly felt forward. If Gary started to panic, Tidus would look up at the mirror and make eye contact with him. "just keep driving!!"

"Mariella," she simply answered looking back. But then shit hit the fan. Mariella smelled the blood and froze up for a second as her siren features showed shortly. She shook her head. Gary cried in panic, which made Mariella look at him - it wasn't for everyone, and she knew that. Mariella took a deep breath in and looked back at Tidus. "Are you alright?" She asked. She had taken a life by accident before, and even to a bad person. Mariella looked back at the paniced Gary who clearly was driving way to fast.
"Gary look out!" She yelled as he was almost about to drive into a car in front of them. Mariella grabbed the wheel but Gary let go and it took a harsh turn to the right. Everything seemed to stop for a second as they hit a tree. Mariella opened her eyes few minutes after. Gary had gotten her out of the car, they were alive.
"She is awake," he said to Tidus. Mariella had few wounds from the crash, and the ringing in her head was driving her insane. Mariella gasped a little and lifted herself up on her elbows.
"I could use a beer," she coughed a little running her hand under her bloody nose. "God my head hurts," she looked around. "Are you two okay?"

Mariella… a special name… a name that actually ment “sea of sorrow.” He smiled as he thought back to her siren form. Something told him that Mariella was a name that fit this girl perfectly. From a calm moment, to now completely chaos as the gamemaster stabbed himself. Marialles question made Tidus look up at her, but before he could answer her, Gary made the car drive into a tree. Or… he almost hit another car if it hadn’t been for Mariella! Instead, they were now stuck in a tree! Tidus thanked his past individual for putting on the seatbelt! He only hit his head and neck a little... Okay, a lot. Blood was running down his forehead. The gamemaster on the other hand, had been thrown through the window of the front seat and did now just hang there… glass all over and blood spread over all three of them.
Tidus growled in pain as he stepped out of the car. A little high-pitched sound was running through his head. He immediately looked on Mariella, as Gary said that she was awake. She might be awake, but that didn’t mean that she was okay. But as soon she mentioned something with a beer, he giggled and helped her out of the car.
“yeah… I´m fine…” he checked on her. “How about you?” he now looked over at Gary. “Are you okay? Do not look at the dead body in the window!” He teased Gary a little. The man was after all easy to spread panic through.
Tidus looked back at Mariella. Her he pulled out a hip flask up from his pocket and gave it to her. “It´s not beer… but it something stronger and could be used as painkillers.”

She was a bit numb to pain at this point, and her head completely shut off. A bit of vampire blood would have her back in shape in no time. Mariella looked at Gary who more looked like someone who would crawl up and cry. He didn't respond to Tidus, but he clearly wasn't okay.
"I'll be okay, nothing a few painkillers and a glass of vampire blood wont fix," she smiled it off and breathed out. Mariella took the flask and took a few mouthfuls. "Just what I needed," she breathed out. Mariella realized she was having a piece of glass in back of her upper arm and pulled it out. "This night is full of surprises.. " she mumbled annoyed and breathed out. Mariella took out her phone, Lion had texted her like crazy. She simply typed everything was fine.
"So what do we do?" She asked Tidus and looked a bit worried at him.

Gary was to no help. The poor man was a lost cause right now. Tidus tapped him lightly on the shoulders. "It´s gonna be okay Gary."
He ran a hand through his dirty hair and clapped himself at his thighs. He searched for that familiar feeling of a phone. When he found it, he quickly took it out and wrote a text to his driver. A driver he had a suspicioun about being a bit magical. For some reason he always could arrive some place really quick! He looked at Mariella with a comforting smile. "I texted my driver... he will probably be here soon... Then he can get us out of this mess."
He looked over at the car. Gary was probably going to get a new one... yikes.
Just as Tidus suspected, his driver arrived very quickly and stuck his out of the window. Without even saying anything, he looked at the crashed car, then Tidus, then the crashed car. He then raised an eyebrow as he looked at Tidus.
Tidus shrug his shoulders. "HEY! at least I wasn´t the one driving!" He looked at Mariella with a cheeky smile. "He is a man of few words... but he´s good enough... he will drive you all the way home... Maybe I should stay here and uhm..." he looked over at the corpse in the crashed car. "get rid of the body." he made a little funny face and then looked at Gary. "He will drive you home too. Just give him your adresses."

Mariella trusted very few people, but even through Tidus didn't know her yet - she trusted him. So when he said he texted his driver, she chose to believe him. And again, they had just survived not only almost being sacrificed but a car crash. The car arrived and she narrowed her eyes at the man, Tidus told her he was okay, which made her nod. Gary got on his feet. "It was a new car," he said and moved to the driver and took a seat. Mariella looked to Tidus when he said he would take care of it.
"No need, we will just light it up," she said and got back on her feet. The car was already burning a little bit - but as she twisted her hand a little the flames got bigger and it almost exploded. She let go of the flames and turned her eyes to the ground where their footsteps was in the mud. She removed them. Clearly she was used to getting into trouble.
"Can you drop me off at Ellison Avenue?" She asked. One thing was she had taken over her mothers apartment since her mother didn't live there anyways - and she didn't want Tidus to know she lived in the Mikaelson Mansion.

When Gary mentioned it was a new car, Tidus sighed and shook his head. "Well uhm... I´ll get you a new one... for some reason you got out here to get me sooo..." Tidus shrug his shoulders and was about to move to the crashed car, when it suddenly went on fire!
THE FUCK!
It didn´t take him long to realize that Ariel was the reason behind the fire. He whistled impressed and now turned around, to go inside the car with the others and not look back. Mariella had made sure to delete there footprints with the fire. "Can I hire you some day?" he smiled cheekily at the siren.
The driver nodded to Mariellas command. He didn´t even try to get eye contact with her in the mirror. They drove silently through the night and sometimes Tidus looked over at the siren. Fore some reason... he had a feeling that there was more to her than so... he couldn´t shake that feeling of him.
They drove her to the adress she wanted and here Tidus smiled politly at her. "are you gonna be okay?" He looked shortly at Gary there seemed impatient. He then looked at Mariella again. "after all... you did just survive a weird ass sacrificing ritual and a car crash."

"Maybe, but I'm quite expensive," she teased a little before she had went in the car. Tidus had been right, the driver had his own special personality. She looked at Gary, clearly the lawyer wasn't as calm in this type of field. As they got to the adresse she stepped outside and looked back at Tidus as he asked if she was going to be okay. Mariella gave him a nod.
"I'll be fine," she assured with a little half smirk. "I have some friends in town, if there is anything I need tonight.. its sleep," she added with a soft chuckle.
"Take care Tidus," she took a step back and closed the door, "and stay out of trouble," a sweet laugh left her lips before she watched the car drive off again. Mariella walked up to her apartment and got herself cleaned up- and after a beer or two she slept like a baby.

"I swear this night was a lot weirder than I expected it to be," Gary sighted looking at Tidus.
