The nebula glanced away from the newcomers to address the child before her. “That’s not true Marianne. I’m sure she’s just scared, most of us are. Fear does funny things to humans.” Rosaline cooed, trying to calm the young girl.
Alexandrea dropped the voiceless teddy bear, her arms dropping limply by her sides. She finally realized why the bear had stopped speaking all those years ago. “I-I thought he was…I thought he was you, but-but you’re you.” She replied, guilt flooding her features. For a brief moment she wondered where he had been all this time. Had he ever gotten out, or had he really been here all along? What if she had left him, forgotten to search for him?
With the new arrivals came tension, distrust, and the standard introductions. Rosaline had not been expecting their demonic ‘friend’ to be slain however. She hardly cared about the man but his killer made her slightly uneasy. Normally she would have no issue fending for herself, but at the moment she was unable to walk and her powers were too weak to really fight anything yet. Her gaze locked onto him until she noticed Marianne start to fall.
Rosaline quickly reached out and caught the child, keeping her from hitting the floor. Something about these blackout spells of hers reminded her of something, but she kept it to herself. The nebula pulled her close, wanting to be able to protect her if need be.
“Faira, I’m sure little Ann is fine. She’s obviously been here longer than we have, she might just be hiding after our last battle.” Rosaline sighed, looking up at the human.
Alexandrea walked over to Mr. T, crouching down to pick him up. She had missed him, had missed talking to him. The shapeshifter wouldn’t pick him up without his permission though.
The boy had remained silent the entire time, looking extremely uncomfortable around these strangers. He slowly walked down the stairs, looking from one person to another with silver eyes. This whole ordeal had been so strange
Rosaline shifted her gaze to the mystery boy once again. “Who are you?”
“U-umm… I’m Walter. W-who a-a-are all of you?” he asked.
