I smile, creating a void hole and jumping in, appearing 30 feet above the pool in another. I hit the cool water, small sparks run through my body. I surface and flip my hair.
Albinia floated on her back with her hand on the edge of the pool so she wouldn't float into the deeper ended. She wasn't an amazing swimmer, if she accidentally went into the deep end it could be a little dangerous for her. As she floated, lost in thought, there was a loud splash at the other end if the pool.
((I'll post a pic of her in a sec ))
((Cool.))I smile, jumping into a void hole, comming out of anotherone thirty feet up. As I hit the surface, I sense the presence of another living thing around me. I break the surface and look around, spotting the lamia.
Albinia watched the person fall and hit the water again. She waved to him as he noticed her. "Hello." She said as she used the wall to right herself so she was no longer floating on her back.
I smile, "Hello to you. Come to enjoy the pool on this glorious day?" I laugh, bubbling with joy. "The water is quite nice, isn't it?" I start to swim over to the Lamia. "I don't see many Lamia. It's a nice change to see one."
"Um, ya. It's hot today so this feels nice." She smiled nervously as he came closer. She moved back a bit to keep her distance. "Sorry to be rude but what are you? I can't really tell."
"Powerbind," I unfurrow my wings, seemingly appearing from no where. "I excell in void magics." I hold an orb of compressed void in my hand. "Sorry to scare you, I realize most, if not all, humans are Hunters."
"It's alright. I'm not really scared, just nervous." She said as she looked over his wings. "Your wings are beautiful. Would you mind if I touch them?" She asked coming a bit closer to him.
I smile. "No, be my guest." I turn around, stretcheng my wings the full 20 feet of wingspan. My wing shake a little, not quite used to being out. "Its been a few months since they have been used, so they are really soft."
She reached out and ran her hands across his wings gently. "They are very soft. Why don't you use them more often? They seem useful." She asked taking her hand away.
"Well, I use the void like a portal, because it is faster." I smile. "I use my wings in combat. The reason they haven't been used is because I haven't gotten into a fight in a while." I turn to face her.
"I guess that makes sense, but if I had wings I think I would use them all the time. It seems like it would be fun to be so hight. " She said as she smiled up at the sky.
"It is. I could show you if you like. I can cary quite a bit with my wings." I smile and hold out my hand to her. "And don't worry, I will not drop you."((It's okay.))
She thought for a minute before she hesitantly let go of the side of the pool and took his hand. "Alright, but I'm kind of heavy." She went closer to him, "Do I have to do anything?"
I smile and grab her around the waist. "Just relax, and don't thrash about." My wings start to pound the air around us. I beat my wings faster, gaining altitude. "You will love being above the Haven, it so beautiful."
"I'll try not to." She said as she rapped her arms around his neck and held on tightly. "It probably dose look wonderful from up high. Your sure you won't drop me right?"
"Yeah, you aren't that heavy, or I am really strong... either way, your weight doesn't hinder me any." I fly up past the trees and start to fly foreward. The sun was starting to set and cast a gold light on everything, making the landscape a brilliant gold color.
She looked over the landscape and smiled. "You were right. This is beautiful. That sun set is one of the most beautiful I've ever seen. I can't believe I'm really up this high." She looked over at him. "Thank you for bringing me up here."
"Not at all. I am glad such a beautiful lady wishes to see this beauty." I smile. heading back to the pool area. "Better than the beauty of any artist that attempt to recreate it on paper, am I right?"
She blushed at his word and smiled. "Yes, you are. No painting can recreate that. I wish everything was as beautiful that. Wouldn't that be a wonderful world?"
"Yes, but the laws of balance will never let that happen." I frown. "Life is so cruel like that. But, all we can do is fight for tomorow and hope for the best."
"Do you live by that Philosophy?"she stopped and thought for a moment. "Hay here's a question for you. Is that tomorrow really worth the fight? If you don't get what you hope for will you fight again?" She asked.
"Yes I live by that, And yes, it is always worth the fight, even if you do not get what you want. You just have to keep fighting for it." I smile and fold my wing, shortly after the dissapear into my skin.
"I like that answer. You're a good person." She let go of him and moved slightly away. "I don't think my answer would have been the same," she shrugged, "but that doesn't really matter dose it."
"It does matter, honestly. I have decided to protect every one I meet in the Haven. It is the least I can do for all of the help that it has given me. It gave me a reason to live, to fight for another day."
"Wow, you plan to protect everyone here? That's quite the feat for one person. I think this place has given many people a reason to live. It isn't called the Haven for nothing."
I smile and look back. "I want to protect the things I care about. Haven and its people are at the top of that list. I feel it is my calling." I look back at her and give a warm smile.
"A calling? Not many people have one of those." She smiled back a him. "Well I guess it's a good thing that you want to protect every one. Not everyone cares about this place that much."
"Not everyone know how to cherish it properly." I smile and wink. "I am glad that I have met you. I would have loss the chance of a lifetime. A chance to meet someone as cool and sweet as you."
"I'm glad to have met you as well, but I'm not so sure that you are right about me being 'cool' or 'sweet'. I don't think those words describe me very well." She said with a slight shrug. "Thanks for the compliment though.
((Sorry I haven't had the chance to get on lately.))
((Sorry I haven't had the chance to get on lately.))
((It's fine.))I laugh a little. "I guess what I know of you is nice. I am glad to have met you. I wonder, What does a lamia do for fun around here. It has to be pretty fun. Or do you do the same as other species? I have only met one lamia before you."
"Fun?" She thought for a moment. "I guess we do things like everyone else if we are doing anything. I don't do much, I like to read. I guess that's fun. I've only met one other of my kind so I don't know what the others do for fun."
"I see... Then what do you like to do for fun? Anything stand out?" I smile. Talking maybe wasn't my best suit.
"Nothing stands out. I read a lot, that's it. I'm a very boring person." She said with a shrug. "What about you? What does your kind do to waste time?"
((Any idea on how to make this a bit more exciting?))
