-they both walk for a while-

Kaori: (following him, twirling her fingers)

-as they're walking, Evrae speaks-

Evrae: "...Kaori....how old are you?"

Kaori: Why? & how old are you?

Evrae: "I'm just asking because I'm curious...I'm 23."

Kaori: I'm 20. :) (Smile) (still following)

Evrae: "...What's it like to be a centaur?"

Kaori: It's very fun! :D (Big Grin)

Evrae: "What do you like to do for fun?" :) (Smile)

Kaori: Run, ...swim...., a bit of sword fighting, how about you? :) (Smile)

Evrae: "I like to go for walks...practice swordfighting...help my mother with cooking.....sometimes if I get bored I like to tell stories to the children in town." :) (Smile)

Kaori: Really? What kind of stories? :D (Big Grin)

Evrae: "Oh, I just make them up." ^^ "Sometimes they're love stories or fairy tales..."

Kaori: Really?

Evrae: "Yes." -he sighs- "...I guess, once you've gone home....I'll have a new story to tell..."

Kaori: ....(looks like she's about to cry)

Evrae: -keeps walking, quiet and pensive- "............"

Kaori: (covering her eyes with her hands)

Evrae: -glances over at her then sees that she's covering her face- "...? Kaori, wha...what's wrong?" D:>

Kaori: (crying, trying to hide her tears)

Evrae: "Kaori..." -he goes over to her-

Kaori: ...why.... :( (Sad)

Evrae: "Why what?..." Worried

Kaori: Why are just trying to push me out the door??? Crying

Evrae: "What??"

Kaori: Why are you just pushing me out the door? :( (Sad) That's what it feels like.

Evrae: "Kaori....that's not what I want.....I'm just worried. I don't want you to go, but I can't keep you here. It's not right....I just want what's best....I'm not trying to push you out the door. If that's what I wanted, I'd've left you in the forest to figure out how to get home on your own!"

Kaori: But it just feels like you are pushing me out. :( (Sad) ....I...I do have one question, Do... do you know where the portal takes me?

Evrae: -shakes his head- No, I disagree! "No, I don't...I'm not sure how portals work...I guess that's something else we'll find out when we get there. But Kaori, I....I'm not trying to push you out. I just can't keep you here....."

Kaori: Why?? & wouldn't it be safer to be here then to end up somewhere I don't even know, or worse?!

Evrae: "I....I don't know......I just....."

Kaori: :( (Sad)

Evrae: "I can't explain it......"

Kaori: ..Then can we please go back, or just not send me back? :( (Sad)

Evrae: -sadly shakes his head no and then turns and keeps walking north-

Kaori: .....Evrae?...

Evrae: "We should keep moving.........." No, I disagree!

Kaori: ....Evrae... please.... :( (Sad)

Evrae: "Kaori, I....I can't.....keep you....here....."

Kaori: Why not??

Evrae: "You have a family back home! And if I kept you here, it'd be selfish of me! There aren't any other of your kind here! You'd be lonely...and I'd be angry with myself...." Crying

Kaori: But what if I go through the portal & end up lonely a lot longer?? :( (Sad) & I don't care if there isn't any of my kind here.

Evrae: "But Kaori....there isn't anywhere else here you could stay...." No, I disagree! "You at least have a home to go back to in your own world..."

Kaori: But I have your home. :( (Sad)

Evrae: "You heard my father. He wants you gone....there's no way he would let you come back and stay with us now...."

Kaori: Why does he want me gone??? :( (Sad)

Evrae: "He wants you 'back in the world you came from'...."

Kaori: But, I don't want to go back to that world, why do you have to listen to him? :( (Sad)

Evrae: "He's my father, and I respect him."

Kaori: But you should stand up to him if he doesn't like something you like. :( (Sad)

Evrae: "Maybe....but I'm not going to disobey him solely for my own gain."

Kaori: Crying

Evrae: "............" -bites his lip a bit and then turns away, walking again-

Kaori: (walking a lot slower than him)

-they travel like that for a while, until it gets later in the day-

Kaori: (still looking sad)

-the sun slowly starts to go down-

Evrae: -looks at it- "......We better stop and rest for the night......"

Kaori: ...ok... :( (Sad)

-he heads into a small patch of trees and then sets his bag down onto the ground-

Kaori: (lays next to him)

-he makes a small campfire for them and then sits down next to her-

Kaori: ..........

Evrae: ".............." -pokes at the fire with a stick-

Kaori: ........... (twirling her tail hair)

Evrae: ".....Kaori......"

Kaori: (looks at him with a sad look on her face)

Evrae: "............." :iconsighingplz: "......never mind........"

Kaori: ........what.........

Evrae: ".....forget it...." -pokes at the fire with the stick again-

Kaori: ...what were you going to tell me?.......

Evrae: ".....I was going to ask you why you're trying so hard not to go back to your home...."

Kaori: Because I don't want to go back home...

Evrae: "Why?"

Kaori: I want to stay with you.... :( (Sad)

Evrae: "...Do you love your family?"

Kaori: ...........no........

Evrae: "....Why not?"

Kaori: Why do you think I ran away from them?

Evrae: "Well....what did they do that was so horrible...?"

Kaori: Just over time..... so much arguing.... not getting along at all.... that kind of stuff.

Evrae: "...." -pokes at the fire with a stick- "....Can I ask what you mainly argued about?"

Kaori: School, getting home late, who to date..... the usual.....

Evrae: "................"

Kaori: ...............

Evrae: ".....Surely they were just concerned for your well-being...."

Kaori: It didn't feel like they were...

Evrae: "............"

Kaori: ....................

Evrae: -pokes the fire with the stick again-

Kaori: .....just... please, don't send me back... :( (Sad)

Evrae: "Kaori, please.....don't ask me that...."

Kaori: (sounding a bit irritated) Why?.......

Evrae: "Because, I don't have much of a choice!!!" -he almost yells, and his eyes start flashing red when he turns to look at her-

Kaori: Yes you do, you just don't think you have one!! (saying it a bit louder than he was, looking a bit angry)

Evrae: -stands up, looking pissed, his fists clenching at his sides- "It's not right to keep you here just because you want an escape from your family who may not even be all that bad to you!! You're just scared to go back!!!"

Kaori: (stands up, looking angry) I'm not scared!!! I Want to stay with you, I want to be part of your family, I want to be part of this world!!! But it feels like you don't want me here, you don't want me to stay, you just don't want me in general!! (getting a bit sad)

Evrae: "How can you say that!? You know damn well I don't want you to go!! I just think it's wrong to keep you somewhere solely for my sake alone, or for YOUR sake alone! I'm only doing what's best for everyone!! If I wanted you gone so badly, I would've let my father take you to Tenebrae Cathedral instead of me!!!"

Kaori: .....you....you said you didn't want me to go, & I don't want to go... why can't we just go back even if you father is mad at you & me? :( (Sad)

Evrae: "Because it's a selfish thing to do!"

Kaori: Why is it selfish??? :( (Sad)

Evrae: "Because letting you stay here is basically like saying we don't care about anyone else but ourselves!"

Kaori: ...isn't what you're doing the opposite since I do want to stay here? :( (Sad)

Evrae: "...What?..."

Kaori: ..your mom doesn't mind if I stay here, I want to stay, you want me to stay, then why make me go? :( (Sad)

Evrae: "......................"

Kaori: ......well?...... :( (Sad)

Evrae: "...........I........"

Kaori: ?????.........

Evrae: -slumps his shoulders slowly, quiet- "................."

Kaori: ......Evrae?.... :( (Sad)

Evrae: "......It.....doesn't matter." -he sits back down and picks up the stick, poking the fire again slowly-

Kaori: .......why does it not matter??? :( (Sad)

Evrae: "........" -he says nothing, just staring into the gently roaring campfire-

Kaori: ......Evrae?....... :( (Sad)

Evrae: "..................." -after being silent for a few moments, he slowly turns over to lie down, facing away from her-

Kaori: .....Evrae... please.... :( (Sad)

Evrae: "........................."

Kaori: ....Evrae..... please say something..... :( (Sad)

Evrae: "........I'm going to sleep....."

Kaori: ......Evrae... please answer me...... :( (Sad)

Evrae: "....I don't have anything else to say......."

Kaori: (sorta cuddles herself, looks like she's about to cry, lays down)

-Evrae is quiet-

Kaori: (slowly closes her eyes, looking a bit sad)
