Brother and sister meeting at last

The full moon hung majestically over-head as the leader of Nox's intelligence and covert affairs Daemon spade leaned calmly against the metal railings of the upper section of the city. Daemon was rather bored at the moment there was nothing to do no criminals to deliver a beat down to no one to talk to and no barely a soul around who was actually awake at this hour.

With a sigh Daemon removed the smoke from his mouth and put the burning object into the palm of his automail hand and looked up at the sky Dearest mother Luna the world of the midnight hour knows only true bliss yet it is truly boring to know that while the others of the living rest and the only company . Daemon smirks and closes his eyes while remembering the past . looking back on it all his life was always spent in the shadows while the others took the central role. To an assassin this was a good thing it meant he was able to continue doing his job to protect those that mattered to him. As Daemon reopened his eyes he had a sad smile on his face with a small tear threatening to fall down his left cheek .

Lina was walking around the City, the moon had risen with the stars as she walked around the maze of buildings on the cobblestone paths that led every which way. She had recently joined the Nox Animus guild, and decided she should get to know her new surroundings better. Re-thinking the fact that going alone would be a good idea. she sighed, everything seemed confusing to what she was used to. tall trees in the woods, cold nights with the fox that raised her..she missed those woods, but it was nice to be around people.

Lina began to get a lump in her throat of worry of being lost in such a big city. she started to jog around, thinking she might find a way back faster. looking to her right, seeing a boy leaning on a railing. she slowed down and looked at him for a second, seeing that he was in an emotional state. but then she looked ahead and kept walking, holding her hands close to her chest, fiddling with her thumbs.

Daemon's nose suddenly caught scent that he though was long lost to the world. He looked up and saw a vision and made his breath stop. Daemon quickly rushed after the woman who he knew for a fact looked exactly like his mother and the scent of the forest where they grew up. "WAIT !" Daemon called out as he ran after the woman.

Unbeknownst to Daemon his partner and the family pet Lunos immediately picked up the scent of someone he knew and promptly jumped out of Daemon's cloak pocket and bolted off towards her yipping loudly making sure that she heard his call before he began to wag his tail happily looking up at her with his paws in the air signaling that he wanted to be picked up and hugged by her.

Daemon had finally caught up to the woman and looked down at Lunos, rarely acted this way and in the past he only acted around family members. Daemon was shocked to say the least could this woman be a member of his family.

Lina nearly jumped as she turned around, not expecting someone to be shouting at her. she held her hands together by her chest as he ran towards her at a fast run. he suddenly halted and she took a step back, flinching. "w-who are you..?" she looked up at him, seeing a tiny creature jump out of his pocket and beg at her feet. taking another step back. not having a clue why this man approached her.

Lunos couldn't control himself ay more and jumped at the girl  causing her to land on her butt as he promptly began to lick her face off happily. Daemon knelt down in front of the girl and took a good look at her face. You look exactly like mother" he took out a small photo and showed it to the woman it was the only picture Daemon had of his entire family his mother and father each holding a child in their hands and him with his favorite blade stabbed into the ground. The mother was holding a small girl with her fathers hair of pure silver yet had to same long flow of her mothers teal .

Lina landed on the ground and squeaked, wiping her face as the thing hoped off her. "what's the big idea?!" she said looking up.
"you look exactly like my mother." the man told her. Showing her a picture.
She took it in her hands and sat up, staring at it for a minute. She looked at the father, then at the mother. And took a strand of hair in her hand, twirling it. "they look like me..." she said softly, "a-are you..?" she looked up at him in the eyes, and felt like she knew them for some reason

Daemon looked at the girl and took out a necklace with a silver crescent moon with a large wolf howling on a cliff charm. "Have you seen a necklace like this before when you were younger? "  He asked abruptly the hope of seeing her again as caused Daemon's stoic disposition to completely crumble away. Daemon knew the possibility of his younger sister making it from the forest they lived in to Nox aminus was unreal. He remembered fondly of how they played with the animals in the forest and how she always favored foxes while he favored wolves.

Lunos nuzzled happily against the girls hand wagging his tail with an immense vigor. Unlike his human formed partner he knew full well who the girl was in front of him and wanted to continue his quest of happily licking her face off .

Lina's eyes widened at the necklace in front of her. somehow she knew that she knew this necklace from somewhere..it smelled familiar and sent shivers down her spine. she took from his hand and felt the texture of the silver chain connected to the wolf charm. she starred at it for a while, ignoring the boy. she got a strange feeling about the necklace, she could see pictures of it in her head. but around someone elses neck. the woman in the picture? his mother? she knew for sure that she knew this necklace, but then her head started to hurt. she winced, rubbing it keeping it un-noticed as possible.

Daemon gently  rubbed the girl's back and whispered softly. "Elisa that was my sister name  along with our little brother Waka we played in the forest together surrounded by the gentle animals and we lied happily with our parents until..." Daemon was unable to continue due to the shear pain of the memory.

Flash Back

MOTHER FATHER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Daemon screamed as their parents were slewed in front of them as three vile men stood between the children and the dying bodies of their beloved parents . The vile men grinned evilly at the crying children. "Now there's only three lunar mages left in the entire world . You little brats are going to be our ticket to easy living . " The leader of the murderous dogs cheered wickedly as the children broke free from the underlings grip and rushed over to their parents begging them to not leave them.

Lina put her hands on her head, why did Elisa sound so familiar? so many images were flashing before her eyes. There were countless voices, faces, screaming, shouting, she felt a shot of pain go through her, like she was thrown at a wall. so many faces she felt like she recognized.. her eyes were shut tightly with her hands over her ears. "STOP IT! STOP IT!" she shouted, tears starting to stream down her face. years of memories trying for force their way back into her head.
she heard a scream and saw a flash of a body on the floor, another body fallowing that. three more looming over her. "STOP IT!" she cried out loud, the stress being too much to handle, she crumpled to the ground. suddenly going limp. unconscious.

Daemon closed his eyes as a few tears slipped down his cheeks as he carefully picked his beloed sister carrying her bridal style back to his home. Daemon's home was a traditional eastern style household complete with sliding rice paper and wooden doors and a large group of trees in the surrounding grounds to make the old building seem more like the family household they once had. Daemon carried Elisa to his bed room and carefully layed Elisa down and walked off to the bathroom and grabbed a washcloth and ran it under some cool water then wrung it out thoroughly before heading back into the bedroom and gently placed the washcloth onto her head and calmly sat down next to her before shifting into his lupine form and curling up next to her sharing his body heat with her.

~dreaming~

Lina was in the woods, but somehow she knew these woods, and heard laughter off in the distance, so she fallowed it, running and dodging tree's without making a sound. but something made her stop and turn, there was a wolf fallowing her. its yellow eyes and scarred face down at her, the wolf being much bigger than she was. she turned around and looked up at it, it looked down with her. she almost expected it to harm her, but the look in its eyes was soft and kind. it ended up picking her up by the back of her shirt, carrying her like a pup. until they reached a family playing in the woods. there was a young toddler, maybe a two year old. squeezing a kitten probably too tight as he sat in his fathers lap on the grass in the backyard of a house. A woman who looked to be the mother sitting next to her husband, watching their other two children play. their oldest boy, and a much younger girl. she sat down and watched them, but particularly the young girl. she looked at the girls hair, then at her own. and the aspects of the parents and how they matched to her. her eyes widened at this thought. all of a sudden she knew everyones names, "Waka, me, and Daemon.." she said, standing up. the wolf that had led her there was gone. they all seemed so happy, as she remembered the days that they had spent together. "i was Elisa.." she mumbled to herself. "but...why did it change?" she said, she fallowed the family inside as they were eating dinner, she sat calmly in a chair in the living area.

everything seemed so peaceful, she sighed. remembering everything that happened, but then she got a sinking feeling in her heart. Her feeling became reality as the doors to the house were broken down, the children screaming and hiding in the kitchen as their parents faught to protect them. Lina watched in horror as her parents were slain and cast aside like nothing, the three thugs snatching up the three kids and leaving. "no!" she shouted, running after them. as they were running one of the men accidently dropped the girl on a rock. "YOU DIMWIT!" one of them shouted, the one who dropped her lifting her up. blood staining the rock. "she's still alive at least!" he yelled back as they ran. she could hear their screams of them all calling to each other as they were seperated, greif and sadness gripping her soul.

~reality~

Lina shot up in bed, gasping for air and holding her hands close to her chest like she usually did when she was feeling strong emotions. tears threatening to fall from her eyes, not caring where she was.
