SIX}Ephesians 4:26: In Your Anger Do Not Sin;

[kidwiththeleash]

[Action, backdated to 10/27]


This isn't funny!

[You can run into Integra in most any part of the castle today, just short of running like a girl on a mission. Heck, she might even run into you, or flat out ignore people she knows.]

Stop hiding from me!

[In a effort to look into every room, search every corridor. Or maybe you just hear her frantic calls, getting more and more desperate and sounding all her 12 years, despite Integra's usual adult persona.]

You can't do this... I won't allow it!

[At one point she stops, hands desperately pressing against her eyelids to try and force any tears back, to not let them flow but it might just be too late, and her cry is anguished.]

ALUCAAAARD!

[He's gone.]

[Integra happens be passing just by his door when she calls her friend's name --Now, that's a voice he recognizes. Why in the world was Integra still calling this guy's name? Wasn't it calling him from the journals enough?

The pony opens his door (don't ask how he does it) and peeks outside just to find the very upset blond.]

Hey, kid...

[kidwiththeleash]

[Integra already knows it is a lost cause, that she would feel him if he was here, but at the same time she can't quite bring herself to believe it either...Maybe it was the Castle just playing tricks on them. She grits her teeth and turns around to meet whoever was speaking, eyes a little red.

She is ready to meet them but... Well, she isn't really ready to meet a pony with a familiar hairstyle. Cloud is met with a harsh tone, trying to get herself back together.]

What?

[chocoponying]

[And he honestly doesn't mind the tone at all.]

What's wrong?

[kidwiththeleash]

He's...He's gone.

[She drifts off for a moment, hands fisting against her skirt before one comes up.] Someone important to me, I mean.

[chocoponying]

That Alucard guy? [You're so bad at it, Integra.]

[kidwiththeleash]

[Yes she very much is, and your voice is way too familiar to be just a pony...]

Yeah, that's him-... Is that you, Cloud? [The hair, the voice... it couldn't be, right?!]

[chocoponying]

Of course it's me, why do you-- [Oh... right...]

Yeah, it's me... Don't ask. [Shakes a hoof a little. He doesn't want to dwell too much into that!]

Wanna come inside?

[kidwiththeleash]

Sorry... [Oh man, was that who she was talking to a few days ago, then? Integra will have to talk to him about it late.]

Sure. [She will follow him in then, head bowed to try and control herself.]

[chocoponying]

[Goes into his room, waiting for her to come in before closing the door behind her. He's not exactly sure of what he should say now, but he supposes it's not a good time to be alone for Integra right now.]

[kidwiththeleash]

[What is there to say, really? Integra mummers a small 'thank you' at being let inside, and takes a look around Cloud's room- She is a little surprised at how big it is, but at the same time it really is very ... Cloud.]

Do people that leave... Just go back home?

[chocoponying]

[He doesn't have much, or any, visitors... He should probably have some chairs or a chouch around for theses cases... But for now he doesn't mind if she sat on his bed, really.]

That's what they say.

...

People who is been back more than once, they said there were at home for the time being.

[kidwiththeleash]

[Integra does move to sit after a moment, taking in Cloud's words, still in shock over Alucard's sudden disappearance and... well, her pony host.]

I guess... that isn't so bad for him. [He had still been sleeping from what she understood, so at least he would not be without a master.] He'll be okay at home.

[chocoponying]

Do you come from his future?

[kidwiththeleash]

[She nods at that.] I did. I'm not sure how long before, but he wasn't aware that Father...

That I was in charge now. [Wow this is all sorts of uncomfortable , but what can you do]

[chocoponying]

In charge?

[kidwiththeleash]

I run the household now.

[chocoponying]

[Ah... That...

Hmm, excuse him kid, he's not good at this comforting thing. In an attempt to make her forget about her loss for a moment, he pads to his bed.

Huh... Jumps on it and fishes something from under the pillows with his mouth, because he's got no other way to do it. A few flaps of his little wings and he's back next to Integra, stumbling as he lands.

He's holding a book for her to grab.]

[kidwiththeleash]

[It is okay Cloud, she isn't the best at receiving comfort either- There was just the need to soldier on, once she lets what happens settle.

Integra watches Cloud curiously, following his movements and a little surprised when he pulls out a book, she takes it from him, and...]

It's... [Dracula, the book she had from when the castle changed them a few months ago.] You had it this whole time?

[That gets a bit of a smile out of her, a little amused.]

[chocoponying]

Yeah........

[kidwiththeleash]

[A few seconds of thumbing though it, and Integra notices that the book is a little dog eared.]

Did you read it?

[chocoponying]

Sort of...

[kidwiththeleash]

Only sort of?
