"Why..." he began, "Why did you stop me? Why do you care if I live or die?" He curled up into a ball and put his hands on his face, crying into them, "All I want is Kazumi back... Why can't you just let me die and be with her? WHY ARE YOU STOPPING ME?!" He was getting angry now. He just wanted to see Kazumi one last time. He wishes that he could have said goodbye before that fateful day...

I plunged into the darkness, wanting only the love it offered. I wanted to be loved; for someone to think I was important. This was what I had dreamed so long for. |

Shap'iyraa shook a lock of hair out of her eyes as it bleached to blond. She laughed, and said quietly, " Ea la siiera Riiala* lii keh! Liyesa ae Riiala lira keyala. Hii lara siiesa leth." She cocked her head sideways, and asked, "Sii eth Re-hiith** la? Ea net lere. Lireyet Sii la? Kek***, Eyet lereya. Siia. Ean syd-trah rell. Si lareya a esse, a Eyet leraya. She closed her eyes, then began in a clear, alto voice she really shouldn't have possessed:
Ea ler Re-hiith deya Lerta Sethya Ea ler Re-hiith deya siiese Ea lar Ea lar a dineya A Si er nala tiya Ea A figure shimmered into existence as Shap'iyraa's hair lightened to white. The figure looked like an elf, male, maybe forty years of age. It was hard to tell if he was Shap'iyraa's father; she was, after all, eight. There was one oddity; the pair of multicolored butterfly wings sprouting from his back. She opened her eyes, and sighed. "I never met him. He left before I was born. I've been trying to find him. Show him that his little girl turned out okay. No luck so far." ***** For those playing at home with a copy of a Sirenish dictionary: It's been so long since I've seen another Siren! Not a lot of sirens in the forest, after all. What with the lack of rocks or waves. Are you part human? That's not right. What are you? Oh, my father. Sorry. I'm easily sidetracked. He looks like this, according to my mother. I knew a man down by the lighthouse I knew a man down by the sea I hoped and I hoped for a long time That he would come back to me *Lit. Person. Means 'Siren'. **Lit. Land Food. Means 'Human'. ***Far less polite than 'Oh'. A note about Sirensih: I'm making this all up. All I'm trying to do is make a bunch of words that sound similar enough to be the same language. Only thing you have to keep in mind when reading Sirenish is to pronounce all vowels separately, except double I's, which always produce an "ee" sound. |

Kaori wrinkled her eye brows then sighed.
"shia'e ay leaai jouk-ee shaii kiki'ay...sotraa jien aweray hoyta soshe ni-kash." Then she chuckled turning her attention to the side question. "Awak-ii shosah jik mataee mjikre kii, Due'si gigik Vampire." She sighed slightly and added quickly. "Ikeay Shrga, jjia noiik hafss. Ujii yokaats bix shia heek." She offered a smile to the young siren girl. "Uta oki-shiaa jikkne rogfi?" She asked. xxxTranslationxxx **I can't say I have seen him around here...but its a small town, finding him should be easy. **And as absurd as it may sound, I'm part Vampire. **But remain calm, I won't harm you. I apologize that I couldn't be of assistance. **How long have you been searching?

"Frankly, kid, I don't really care if you live or die. Just think of the mess someone would have to clean up, it's better off if you do away with yourself in the forest...and be with your umm, cheesooi", he chuckled and mocked the boy as he grabbed another grain of rice. He looked at the frail boy
"Ya know...*munch*...a circus would pay good money for a suicidal...*munch*...puppy dog like you........the names Chester", he shrugged and reached out his small palm. "Don't mind my mouth, spending 7 years with a senile old man does that", he grinned.

Shap'iyraa cocked her head sideways. The dialects they were using were slightly different. She had a little trouble understanding some words, but she got the gist of the message. She thought for a moment, then said, "Ea le Si nii silara. Ea Riia nii drey ala. Sirana, tai." She looked up at the sun, then back at Kaori, and added "Ea nii ler tai siir. Quii." She paused, then said, "I've been looking for a long time. I'm not sure exactly. A year, maybe?"
***** I don't think he's here. My song didn't say he was. But thank you. I can't help but notice you aren't on fire. Huh. |

"Why does it matter? Wouldn't being in a circus make my life even more meaningless? What's the point?" he asked the small creature, wondering why he shouldn't just kill himself right now.
