Curse of the Beast

Lilly smiled and nodded. "Oh yes. My sister and I had our own small garden, it wasn't as.. beautiful as yours, but it was something we did together and it made it special." She said, sighing softly and happily. This really was her happy place, away from everyone else and just her and nature as one. She glanced back at him as he removed his jacket and hat, but his next question took her off guard a little bit. "But... there's no music?" She asked, smiling at him. She took his hand anyways as she stood up. When he asked her, a breeze came through, blowing strands of her blond hair around her face and her skirt around her legs. "I'm just warning you, I don't dance very often." :Lilly said. She placed one hand in his own and the other on is shoulder.

He smiles, knowing he had two left feet, but he danced anyway. He had asked her to anyway. "My curiosity gets the best of me. Why were you sent here?"

Lilly smiled slightly when he nudged her, telling her to go ahead and look around, but she was so taken aback by the beauty of it all, she just stood there and looked at everything, in a trance. When he spoke again, she smiled and nodded, walking to catch up with him. "This is.. gorgeous, Alex..." She said to him as she looked at the exotic plant they were standing next to. She knelt down to look at it more closely, a small smile playing on her face. The wind picked up, blowing her blond strands around her face. Standing back up, Lilly glanced over at him. "All of this is gorgeous." She said and behind him she noticed a small pond. She walked over to it, circled around the pond was different bushes of flowers, a tiny waterfall could be seen. "Wow." She said again.Lilly took off her shoes and sat by the edge of the gorgeous pond, dipping her feet in the water and giggling as the cool water tickled the bottoms of her feet.

He noticed her smiling and he hoped this didn't end badly. "The water, the air, the trees. It's all alive you know." He walked over and stood next to her and she dipped her water into the pool. The fish swam silently beneath her feet, barley visible. Alex took of his jacket and hat and hung them on a tree branch. He then turned toward her and held out his hand, "May I have this dance?" The moment he asked a slight breeze came through the garden. The plants sounded like they were singing and birds took to the air.

Lilly took a little peek at the man leading her to the garden, once again admiring the appearance of him. He was very handsome, and she smiled a little bit inside. She listened as he listed off the different things that he had in the garden, all of it sounding wonderful. She stood behind him as he pushed open a large door, and what she saw next brought a large smile to her face. It was a beautiful garden, lit by lanterns, and just as he said there was different fruit trees, vines, and a bunch of different vegetables growing in different places. There was even a couple places you sit sit down on a stone bench and admire the beauty."Wow." Was all Lilly could manage to say as she took in the view.

Alex nudged her, "Go on take a look around." He looked at her and grinned. He walked forward and started inspecting a tree. He then looked back and smiled at her before moving onto another plant. He did this until he was about four or five plants down, "You coming or not?" He laughed.

Lilly was a little startled when he held his arm out for her to take. Did we want her to take his arm? She decided to take the risk and placed her hand on it, he didn't protest, so that must have been what he wanted. She nodded when he told he she'd love the garden. "Let's go see then, shall we?" She asked, letting him guide the way. He really was handsome, he had nice features and a nice smile. She realized she was staring before she quickly looked away, staring straight ahead and hoping he hadn't noticed.

Alex smiled as he lead Lilly down the hallway to the back of the mansion. She was pretty, but he had to be careful on what he said or did. He didn't want to scare her away. "I have apple trees, watermelon and grape vines and various vegetables growing back here. Along with various type of flowers and trees that bloom." He lead her around a couple turns before coming to a door. "Wait here." He left her as he walked to the door and pushed it open. "Welcome to the garden."

Sorry for the delay. I will post when I get up.

Lilly had ignored everyone else conversing in the room, her eyes looked about to the man asking her about gardens. Nodding at his offer, Lilly stood up. She had ate half the soup and got her fill. She wasn't really use to eating a lot. "Sure.." She said, her voice growing soft again as she walked towards him. "Lead the way." She said, her hand still clutched around the small locked around her neck.

Alex stepped out into the hallway and faced the back of the mansion. He held out his arm so she could place her hand there and he could guide her. "The garden in behind the mansion. You will love it for sure. I have all kinds of things growing out there."

I thought we decided that everyone was stress-based?

Thats what I thought too. And since that is the case, since the characters are human we each have different stress triggers.

Lilly looked over towards the man speaking to her. Was it her? He was looking at her? When he asked her about gardens, she smiled a little more. "I actually love gardens, my sister and I would have our own garden and tend to it." She said with a soft smile as she spoke of her sister. "We grew tomatoes, watermelons, carrots, you name it. We even planted an apple tree one time." She said before realizing she was rambling. She bit her lip to quite herself before she made herself look like an even bigger idiot.

Alex stood up and addressed Lilly, "Would you like to see my garden? It is quite spectacular." He looked around and two of the girls got up and left. Before getting a reply from Lilly, he held out his hand to Ali, "You can come too. Maybe you will find something you would like to draw."

After another minute of consideration, the redhead decided to ask the other question on her mind. "If there really are no beasts, then why are we here? I'm kind of confused..."

"The beast are real. I promise you that," Alex said. "When we turn depends on a number of factors. Se we have to be careful. Griffin looks like he might explode any minute." Alex took a sip of water. "Val, I will have salmon and salad, please." He took note of what Lily said about tomatoes and addressed her, "How do you feel about gardens?"
