Hisao walked out of the store and leaned against the post under the lamp light. He looked up to the sky watching the snow falling softly down onto his beloved town. With his present in hand he just simply waited..... enjoying the snowfall.'Where does the time go?'He thought to himself as watched several men light the town's lamps. Illuminating the dark and snowy covered street.'I must have been in their for what three hours trying to find a gift?'He smiled and shook his head clearing of its thoughts.

a shadowed figure scurried past, just beyond the reach of the street lights. Rein ignored the warm tears that were rapidly freezing on her lashes. She knew these streets better than anyone, seeing her skirt every obsticle with ease, no one would ever think she was blind. She had ran from her father's warm building like a coward. This she knew and wept over. Yet another stupid marage deal her father presented to her. She wept at her father's cold and careless heart. He'd actualy presented the man as a gift! Her silent sobs intensified, as did the fridged winds. She wrapped her arms around herself regreting that she'd left her coat behind.
The edge of the little town was just a little farther. She wanted her solitude, her escape. She cept feeling that man's hand in her own. His voice sounded in her mind. 'God! He had to hae been at least 40!' Her tears were making her face freeze, She desperately wanted to disapear. But she knew she'd never escape her horrid life, no one ever got what they wanted.

Hisao stopped shaking his head and noticed a shadowy figure moving in the shadows.'Is that Rein? Why the hell is she out here by herself at this time of night.'He slowly followed her making sure no one saw him. From this distance he could hear Rein's weeping."Rein is that you? Are you crying?"Hisao barely spoke above a whisper.

Rein was so suprised at the intrusion he could have yelled and she wouldn't have been as startled. She desperately whiped at her eyes as she sniffled. "Good evening Hisao" She murmered polightly as she turned in his general direction. She knew Hisao and his wife lilly, they were nice to her as very few were. Sure no one would openly hate the mayor's only child, but Hisao actually treated her as a person and not an ornament as others did.
She absently rubbed her arms as she tried to repress her shivers. "How's lilly doing?" She asked politly. She leaned slightly in the direction of the woods as she spoke, wanting to run but knowing it would hurt Hisao if she ignored him.

Hisao noticed her leaning towards the woods."She's doing fine.... You heading to the forest Rein?"He walked over to her and placed a hand on her shoulder comfortingly."I know it's not my place to ask but...... Whats the matter? I can clearly tell you were crying."He smiled to try to comfort her but realized that it was no use due to her blindness.

She smiled as she stared blankly. "yeah the woods... as always." She faced upward to look towards him. "Thanks Hisao. but I'll be okay. Just the same as always." She flipped her hand in the direction of her house. coincidentally just as the older man was waling out the door. he shook hands with her father and walked off down the street. Rein continued to smile, having no idea Hisao had just seen exactly what was troubling her. Everyone in the village knew her father's habits and treated her as if it was her fault for not doing as she was told. She did not want Hisao to see that. He was like an older brother to her.

Hisao scowled as he found her father shaking the old mans hand."The same as always is not okay Rein.... How about instead of going to the woods you come to my house and have a decent meal with me and my wife. She's making roast, and I can say it's really quite good."He smiled at the image of Lilly standing in front of the oven."I really do love that woman."He said quietly with a soft smile.

"Lilly's cooking's great..." She said as she shivered and wished for her woods. "I'd like some... alone time first though." She mumbled as she rbbed at her eyes. "mind if I meet you in a few minutes?" She just needed a little bit to cry her eyes out in peace. And maybe scream a little. She needed her woods. "I'd like a nice meal. And I'm sure everyone in the village knows how much you love lilly." She smiled as she recalled the gossip about Hisao's crazy devotion to his wife. The thought of some one not knowing made her giggle. Hisao always seemed to know just how to make her happy. Not that he ever really tries... She just enjoyed his personality.

Hisao nodded at patted her on the shoulder."Alright...... Just stay safe okay. The woods can be a dangerous place."He turned to go home before he stopped and took off his jacket."Here take this Rein it's freezing out here."He placed his jacket around her shoulders."This should keep you warm. Anyway Im off."He took off at a quick pace down the street towards his house. He quickly opened his door and stepped in quietly.
Hisao could hear Lilly moving around in the kitchen. He slowly, and quietly put his present down. He took off his shoes and walked into the kitchen quietly. Lilly was standing in front of the counter chopping some carrots. Hisao sneakly walked towards Lilly untill he was standing right behind her. He wrapped his hands around her eyes making her jump."Guess who."He whispered into her ears as he dropped his arms wrapping them around her waist.
"I ought to smack you."She said smiling turning around kissing him softly."Why were you out so late?"
Hisao kissed her back."I was getting a gift, and I ran into Rein. By the way she's coming by to eat might want to make some more."
Lilly wrapped her arms around his neck just standing there enjoying each others company."This actually works out pretty well. I made to much for just the two of us."She smilled at the mention of a gift."What kind of gift Hisao?"
Hisao smilled back at her as he started to slowly dance with her in his hands."Just a gift for a very beautiful woman. I'll give it to you once Rein finishes her meal."

The secound Hisao dismissed her Rein took off in the direction of her woods. She smiled at Hisao's parting comment on the 'dangers' of the woods. She'd been comeing out here to calm down ever since she could remember and she'd always been able to fend for herself. Of cource she never went too far in... She stumbled into her favorite spot. It was a natural blind that was formed by the up shooting roots of a giant tree. She had no idea what kind of tree it was, nor what it really looked like other than the roots that formed a bowl-like haven. There was a conceiling roof formed by the hedge and she knew noone would ever find her here. She fantasised about staying there and never returning.
She had no way of telling how much time passed but figured it would have been maybe half an hour. She shuddered with the cold as she crawled out from her burrow. She'd promised Hisao she'd go. She pulled Her borrowed jacket closer, thankfull once again for Hisao's kindness. She started to run back towards the town.
Rein sneezed as she knocked againsed the doorframe. A habbit of hers, she never actually hit the door nor used a knocker or bell. She waited a few secounds shivering in the cold before lightly hitting the door frame once again. It was cold. She hoped Hisao had kept her serving hot; she needed it.

Hisao got up from the table and walked to the door."I think are guest arrived."He told Lilly as he opened the door."Ah there she is. Here come in, come in."He closed the door behind Rein as she came in."Just in time Lilly finished the meal not even a minute ago."
Lilly smiled at Rein."Ah Rein how nice to see you again."She placed her and Hisao's food on the table."I hope you like the food..... How's your school work coming along?"She asked kindly leading her to her seat."Good I hope."

Rein loved it here. They both knew just how to make her feel at home. Shein smiled and ran up to lilly. She hugged lilly around her waist and laughed. Lilly was great. Rein let go and backed up a little. "School's gr-" She started but was cut off as she tripped over something. She rapidly turned beat red. She hated when her blindness caused problems. "Sorry." she bumbled as she groped around for whatever it was that had tripped her.

Hisao smriked and laughed quietly at Rein's embarassement."You know if my brother was here, he would take any chance to mess with you."He smirked at the memories he had with John."Anyway let me help you."He grabbed Rein's hand and led her to a chair.
Lilly smilled at the two."No need to apologize Rein."She bent down and flattened the corner of rug that Rein tripped on."And John isn't as a bad as he makes him out to be. He's actually a quite a good person..... The last time I saw him anyway."
Hisao smirk went away by the mention of the last time he saw John. It was shortly after the attack after his stepfather their mother died"Well let's change the topic shall we."He clapped his hands together as he took his seat."No one picking on you at school are they?"He asked Rein.

Rein smiled sadly at Hisao's remark about her school. "no. Every one at school makes sure to treat me respectfully." She worded it carefully as to not lie. No one was ever truly rude or even slightly mean, but she still didn't have any real friends. She smiled and decided to quickly change the subject. She hated bring the center of attention. "So your brother's name is John right?" She asked, Hisao so rarely spoke of him. "I'd very much have liked to meet him." She giggled as she felt lightly for a fork. "You make him sound fun." She was genially happy at the idea of having someone around that would actually play with her. "You mentioned he lives with Calgors?" She tried to hide her excitement but failed miserably. Oh, well Hisao knew how much she loved and idolized them. Her fingers brushed the handle of a fork and she lightly felt the tines to be sure.

Hisao began eating his well prepared meal. He swallowed befor answering."Yeah John lives with Calgor's."He couldn't help but notice the twinkle her eyes at the mention of Calgor's."Your fascinated about the Calgor's aren't you."He slowly turned to Lilly smirking at her."You know Lilly is a water cal... Owwww."Hisao was cut off by a quick kick to his shin.
Lilly quickly brought her leg down and turned to Rein."I didn't know you were interested about the Calgor's. Which abilities are you most intrigued by?"She asked sweetly glaring at Hisao.
