Neo looked at Kye when he spoke, somewhat echoing his own thoughts at first, though he knew little of shadow magic himself as he went on, So she's powerful . . . very powerful . . . . Why didn't she use this power before when we were being chased?
He chewed his lip lightly with a fanged canine, still lost in so, many thoughts, At least she's awake now . . . .

Raven sat up looking around with wondrous, beautiful eyes, the blood that was left soaking into the towels. ".... Who are all of you?... and where am I?..." she asked in her rather low voice... Kyes father stepped closer to the bed. "... I am your father... and this is Kyden, your half brother." "Kye, if you please..." his still face looking down at her. "... From what my father has told me, you are my lost half sister, of which had been kidnaped at a lesser age of 2 years old. We are the rulers to the Shadow Kingdom..." he explained... Raven shook her head, looking down from his explaination, she shead a tear. "... you didnt care to come find me.." "I did everything possible to find you, though that same day your mother had been killed... you see, you werent living in the castle... i sired you, on accident..... but--" "So I'm not important!" she shouted, standing from the bed. "After all you were planning to rape and kill me last night werent you!?.." she said frustrated. Kye scowled. "... Listen! I'm not the loving type, i usually get what i want! Though now you're my sister i wouldnt think of such things!" his deep voice yelling back. "Lier!" she screamed. Angry, Kye turned to shadow, phazing from site, and back into site infront of her, pinning her to the wall. "... So what if i am i lier! Do you wish that i rape you?! Is that what you want dear sister!?" he roared. Their father reached for them. "No--" "Shut up father!!" he snapped, looking at him, then looking back to Raven, holding her firmly. Raven squealed, his force a bit painful. "...................."

"Stop it, you'll hurt her again!" Neoruko growled, stepping forward to pull him off of her, then realizing who exactly it was and making himself stop, though it took all his will power. Emperor or not, he wouldn't accept this behavior . . . especially when he was doing this to his own sister.
His actions confused him all the same, why should he care so much about a girl he had barely even met? He hadn't even known her name until her father had shouted it. He had litterally only just run into her on the street and wasn't it because of her that he was even here right now?
He closed his eyes for a moment, confusion running amuck in his mind. Shaking his head he looked back at Kye and Raven, ears flat against his head and eyes narrowed, growling low in his throat, "Let her go . . . she's still weak from bloodloss . . . she needs rest, not this!" His hands were clenching and unclenching as he tried to make himself relax, to have a clear head so he could think about the things hew as saying before he said them and didn't get himself into trouble.

Kye looked at Neo with a stern face, though nodded his head. "... Perhaps, i over reacted." he stared at Neo for a while before brushing himself off and walking out, slamming the door. Quietly followed by his father.
Raven watched them leave, then sighed, looking to the ceiling, choking up before sliding to the floor... She slowly hugged her knees, hidding her face in it as she began crying...

"Oh . . . don't . . . ," he looked down at Raven after a while, having watched Kye and his father leave and continued to stare at the door until he heard her crying.
He bit his lip again, ears flicking. He didn't know what to do in this situation . . . he'd never been in one like this before, I think I'd rather be in battle than alone with a crying woman . . . .
He blew out his breath and sat down, slowly, beside her, wondering what to say, "I . . . ," I don't even know why she's crying . . . she's a woman, she could be crying about anything . . . .
"Why don't you . . . why don't you get some rest . . . you must be tired still . . . ," he looked over at her, thinking that probably wasn't the right thing to say, but it was still true . . . .
I wish I knew what I was doing . . . damn it, I probably know less about women than any man on the face of this earth . . . , he sighed and closed his eyes for a moment, before some instinct in him that would do anything to get her to be happy, to stop crying, made him pull her gently closer to him, more or less into his arms, "Just cry . . . if that's . . . if that's what you need to do . . . just cry, and if you want to talk . . . I . . . I'm here."
I sound like an idiot . . . . I really hate this, not knot knowing what I'm doing . . . , his ears pressed against his head nervously as he held her lightly, wondering if she'd snap out of it and try to hurt him for even touching her or something. He'd seen men get slapped for doing seemingly nothing, at least nothing to him . . . , What am I doing?

Raven heard and felt him... unsure of why he did it, though it helped, she wasnt crying loudly, though her tears stained her face vibrantly as she switched positions with both hands and her hand laying against his chest, just trying to calm down... everything came on her and she felt so tired..

His arms closed a bit tighter around her, though he wasn't sure why. For a while he just sat there with her, holding her as she cried, ears pressed against his head as he wished he could make her stop, but didn't know how.
He looked down at her and spoke softly, "You . . . you really should rest more, you lost a lot of blood and . . . you should rest."

She slowly calmed, looking up at him, loosening the hold, then looking down. "... i-im sorry... i shouldnt have..." her voice trailed off as she looked even farther away from him, standing and walking to her bed... She slid benieth the covers and closed her eyes, sad.... though now he was free to go.. and she stopped crying..

He stood slowly, gazing at her for a while, "Are you . . . are you alright now? I'll stay, if you want . . . I really don't . . . don't have anywhere else to be or . . . anything."
He looked at his feet for a while, biting his lip again, before looking back to her, not sure if he really wanted to leave . . . .

Raven didnt answer right away... but when she did she sat up and looked at him.... then looked at her hand, resting weakly upon the blankets. "... you don't have to leave...." she was going to say his name.. though she still hadnt heard it yet...

"Well . . . if you want me to, I'll go . . . ," Why do I care? Why do I want to stay so badly? He looked over at her, coming to sit beside her on the bed and hoping she wouldn't mind.
For a while he remained silent, trying to figure out the confusion of emotions he was feeling . . . seemingly for the first time. He realized that though he knew her name, through accident, really, she didn't know his, or at least he didn't think she did. After all, her brother had known it well enough . . . .
"I'm Neoruko, by the way . . . you can call me Neo, if you want," he spoke quickly, then asked himself why he was acting so stupid, What's wrong with me? I'm only making a fool of myself . . . maybe I should leave . . . .

Raven repeated his name ponderingly ".... Neo..... reaching slowly and carressing one of his auds... still intrigued by them... she lowered her eyes... her head throbbing, though doutfully as much as Neo's.

Surprised by the sudden touch, his ears flicked slightly, "So . . . you've really never seen a wolf demon before then?" he remembered her vaguely saying she'd never seen anything like him before, "We're not such a rare thing, are we?"
His gaze lightly locked on her face, searching her features, having not really gotten a very good look at her before now. First they were running, then in the darkness of a cell, then standing in a line awaiting the pleasure of the emperor . . . .

"No...," she answered quietly, her hand dropping from his ear, back onto the bed. "it's just... you're new to me, i've seen wolf demons... and humans... though nothing of your sort... you're a halfbreed arent you?..." she said it as if she already knew... though his features were usually far to wolf-like to tell the difference. She guessed him right out, without even having a hard time doing it. a bit odd, though perhaps she saw something others didnt... just as a thought.

"I . . . I'm a half demon, yeah . . . ," his auds flicked backward for a moment and he looked slightly past her, before closing his eyes against the throbbing pain still in his head, Damn it, I wish it would just go away . . . .
His hands came up to rub his temples, somewhat lessening the pain, for a while at least. He looked over at her again, "Somewhat of lesser breeding than you, I suppose . . . ," he smirked, "You being an emperor's sister, what does that make you now? A princess or something?" He rolled his eyes, personally not caring much for the whole royalty idea . . . .
