Music and Freedom

[Momo]

Eco was streching luxurasly out in the sun that made it though the trees. She had her dark eyes closed and her wings fluttered as she laid on her stomach. It was so nice out today! She felt no worries in the world, even though she was pretty close to the human town that resided near this little forest. This little forest was the only and last home for her kind, so there was alot of her kind living among the trees. She was a wood nymph, her tree was a willow, sweet and weeping. Eco was a kind creature, she would never harm anything in her life, unless she was being hurt by that something. Her skin was so white that it left off a soft glow in the sun, though it matched perfectly with the beautiful white dress she wore that was almost see though. Her dark hair fell around her back as she lay there, shifting as her wings shifted. Her wings were like rainbows, the clear see though dragon fly like wings caught the light just right to make them flash rainbow. She gave a little yawn, listening to the distant sound of humans. She had alot better hearing and eyesight then did a normal human, so she could hear the soft mumbling of talk and what the humans called cars. She shifted once again to get comfortable, let out another soft little sigh and then relaxed again, just listening.

A small mew came from a near by bush, and than a jingle of a bell as a small grey tabby tumbled out of the bush. His blue eyes blinked at the wood nymph, full of curiosity. His nose was twitching a thousand miles per second.

"Sonata!" A male voice came from the nearby trees where the kitten had come from. " Where did you go?" He stepped carefully around the bush the kitten tumbled out of just seconds beore. "There you are.." He let out a sigh and blinked at the kitten. His silver eyes drifted beyond Sonata to the girl. His mouth opened slightly in amasment. Not, because of her wings, which he hadn't noticed yet, but because of how pretty he thought she looked. "Excuse me miss?" He asked, a quiet voice ringing from his mouth. He brushed a hand through his silvery white hair with blonde roots. The cloting he wore was okay, but less than appealing to normal peopl, square holes having been purposly cut out in his nice blue shirt. His pants were wonderfully perfect though, being white slacks. His shoes seemed to be missing as he had none on. "Are you lost? Can I help you?" He spoke in an almost desperate way.

[Momo]

Her eyes flew open at the sound of the cat and the human males voice. She didn't have time to jump up and hide before he was in sight. She slide to her feet anyways, her eyes wide with dismay and fear. She hadn't been paying attention to noises closer to herself and hadn't heard him coming what so ever. She shifted a little bit and her eyes darted around before settling back on him. They were black and in her other form they would have no whites in them. She shook her head a little at his question and took a step back. "Not...lost..." Her voice was sweet and musical, but it was clear she didn't speak english. The words had been hesitant and far apart, as if she'd been thinking about the words. "Fine..." she said again, taking another step back and away from him. It was bad for humans to see the wood nymphs or any other nymphs for that matter. Humans didn't like things that weren't normaly and many of her kind had been killed because of that, Eco wasn't about to let that happen...she didn't want to die.

[Fox]

He smiles a little, in a depressed kind of manner. Seeing how to it was a little obvious she didn't understand English he tried the other langauge he knew. German. "Sie sind nicht verloren? Sind Sie sicher?" He paused, putting his hands in the air to show her he wasn't going to hurt her. "Ich werde nicht Sie verletzen. Ich verspreche. Hergekommen." He moved one arm slowly, placing it extended out in front of him.

Sonanta brushed up againt the male's leg with a soft mew. He looked as if he was trying to show the wood nymph that his master was innocent and friendly.

[Momo]

She stared at his hand her eyes still wide. What had he just said? She had understood none of what he'd just spoken. She shook her head and made a helpless fluttering gesture with her hands. Her black eyes were still locked on his hand as if she expected it to bite her. She slowly looked at the cat at his feet ans then up at his face. After a moment she reached her hand out to lightly touch her finger tips to his. It felt different then touching other nymphs, where there was normally a odd mind connection there was nothing with him, just a blank wall. His mind was blocked, locked away. Humans didn't know how to open minds like nymphs did.

[Fox]

He smiled when she touched his hand. He switched back to English, finding it better. "See... I won't hurt you." He whispered. He didn't dare move, for risk of loosing what trust he might've just gained. Her hands were soft, he thought. Softer than any girls' hands he'd ever touched. His face wassprayed pink with embarassment at his own thoughts. Thoughts he dare not say out loud, being to shy to say anything along the lines of 'you're pretty' or ' I like you'.

Sonata mewed again. His purr could be softly heard from the ground where he sat.

[Momo]

She tilted her head and stared at him for a little bit. She gave a small smile, and shifted on her feet. Her wings fluttered and she cast her head around to look behind her. She frowned a little and stepped back, taking her hand away from him. She turned her dark eyes back to him and gave another soft smile. "Time...go." She mumbled in her broken english. She cast her eyes around again and frowned, looking worried. "Leave...leave. Not safe." She waved her hands as she took another step back. If the others caught him here...no telling what they'd do. It wouldn't be good that was for sure.

[Fox]

He frowned, not quite understanding. "What's not safe..?" He asked, lowering his arm back to his side. He bent over a little to pick Sonata up off the ground. He blinked at her, finally noticing her wings. He tried not to act too surprised. Afterall, it could just be a really good cosplay.

[Momo]

She shook her head. "Go!" She said, before turning and moving away. She paused at the edge of the treeline to look back. "See ya." She said, making it as clear as she possibly could that she wanted to see him again. She disappeared among the trees then, hurrying away. She hopped he left quickly and didn't follow her...that would be very bad.

[Fox]

He thought about for a moment before following after her. He didn't care if he was in danger, and Sonata knew the way home if he had to run. He carefully steped through the grass and around trees, in the direction that he saw the girl go. "Hello..?" He said after a few moments went boy, assuring himself that he was lost.

[Momo]

Rustles went up, the sound of forest creatures. Otherwise is was perfectly silent, no sound what so ever. The trees rustled quietly, alive it seemed. As he walked furuther the sound of voices and soft wilting music came from up ahead. It was so deep into the forest that you wouldn't be able to hear it from the town even if it was super loud.

[Fox]

Carefully, and as quiet as he could manage, he crept forwards more, in the direction of the voices and music. He crouched down behind a tree and peered out behind once he thought he found the sorce of the noise.

[Momo]

There were many people gathered in the large clearing, or...what at first glance might be considered people. They danced and talked, and music was being played off to the side by some music players. A tall regal looking man stood on a rock, over looking it all. It wasn't long before Eco came into view, easily landing on the rock and tilting her head up to look at the man and speak to him.

[Fox]

Justus blinked and watched the people with awe. THat look of awe turned to an almost hoorified look when His eyes caught Sonata running out into the clearing towards Eco. "Sonata..!" He whispered harshly.

[Momo]

People turned at the sound of the bell the whole clearing suddenly falling silent. Eco didn't make any movement or face or noise that indicated she knew the cat and no one challenged it. "Must be a little cat who got away from home." Eco spoke out in her own tongue, which made her voice more musical sounding, as she snatched the cat up before the man beside her could. "I'll take it away from here and back toward the humans." She said easily, slipping away before any words could be said. Her voice and words seemed to make the tension ease and the soft music and chatter started up again as she slipped though the crowad to get to the trees.
