Status: Closed, tag Rep


The sound of the earth’s deaf toned music played to the tone of Media's hips. Side to side she traveled as she danced across the rocks in search of adventure. A rabbit to be exact, preferably the color white.

Today, her goal was to catch that creature and rejoice in happiness. A small creature will be good enough for her and the well-fare of her own pleasure. Her only wishes were for the rabbit to come out in desperation for air. Sadly, she knew what game this rabbit was playing. Mind games, all she had to do was wait until the time is right. Then, her games will begin shortly.


Suddenly, from the corner of her eye there was a rustling in the bushes, she knew from the start the rabbit was there. A massive grin on her face, as she drew the bow from her back, Media pulled the arrow into the bow then let go. A scream of panic as the animal squealed in agonizing pain. She ran towards the rabbit, whispering a few words in eat small ears. ”May you be blessed. The Yasi smiled kissing the rabbit goodbye, then ripping the arrow out of it’s body.


Quickly, she made her way to the water to find something pleasant. Maybe a fish or two, that she could gape at. Or maybe an eagle who would stop by to drink some water or steal their new meal. Although, Meria had never associated herself with an actual eagle, she had no idea what to expect.
The Yasi enjoyed the moments of life, that she had to cherish and hold onto. She wanted to remember these moments for a lifetime therefore she could never let go of them. As a mere adult she will never forget the eagles soaring through the sky or the fishes swimming through the water. All would remain as a single thought, but a dream, a world. Of possibilities.


Meria wanted to enjoy the moments of life which she could hold onto forever until she died. She wanted to remember these moments because as a mere adult everything would fade away. She didn’t want to forget about the eagles soaring through the sky or the fishes that swam through the water. Exploration was endless, and neither did she want to miss it.


Suddenly, the sound of rattles in the bushes again. She called out to the movement, hoping that it was a friendly ginger. There she saw it! Red hair, it was a ginger… A masculine figure meaning that it was a guy. Therefore it could be a Yes trying to play a silly joke on her or something. Rather usual in her lifestyle, but she chose to keep her guard up.

Who knew what was up ahead of her, maybe it was that man in the cloak. That was the worst thing she could possibly come too, but the thoughts were just out of paranoia. Something she always experienced no matter how hard she tried to fight it off. Her anxiety levels became rather high...

As her heart began to pick up pace, quickly...she made her way to behind a large rock. There the man was in search of Alstroemeria. But strangely, she knew this person just by the face.Wait is that Reo? A rather puzzled expression on her face as she reflected on why he had followed her.."Reo, is that you?"She asked the man. As she emerged from her hiding position.

Reo considered that following Meria would spook her out a bit but he was feeling restless and Layla had gone out to touch the sky and perhaps find some food, so he followed his only chance for conversation. He had momentarily lost her when she disappeared when a lapse in concentration caused him to take his eyes off her. He gauged that from the direction she was going that she was going to the river, also she had her bow and arrows so she must have been hunting. Reo considered trying to scare her for a moment but decided against as Meria’s aim with her bow was quite accurate, an accuracy that he envied. Instead he would make a rather loud arrival so as to warn her someone was coming.

Reo heard her voice, she was blessing something. She must have made her kill, Reo thought. He moved towards where the sound had come from and made a decided effort to rustle through some bushes. He almost burst out laughing when he saw the care free beauty hiding behind a rock; he fought back a few giggles as he answered; “why would it be anyone else,” he added in jokingly, “were you expecting to meet a secret lover”. Reo was feeling mischievous per usual. He started to take off his Katinu to expose his torso which had already started to form chiselled muscles, “I saw you looking into the river, if you’re going to swim then you should try getting into the water”, as soon as Reo had finished his sentence he ran and dove straight into the pool of water. Reo came up for a breath and looked to Meria; “well, will you join me” he asked.

Reo had a lot on his mind and the dive into the river was not a ploy to distract himself from the problems that were racking his psyche but instead to create a comfortable environment for conversation between himself and the talkative Meria. Also, a little dip every now and again never hurt anyone. Hopefully Meria would take the bait and join him in the water and not leave him floating aimlessly in the river with nothing to keep him company but the scary, solitude of his own thoughts.

Meria gawked at him, as he showed his bare skin... She felt as if her heart skipped a beat when she saw his rather tones muscles. Although, the Yasi had to contain herself before she got into any trouble with such a boy. The Yasi overhead him say something at coming in the water, but she didn't want to go in the water. Yes, she did have on swim wear her mother had gifted her in all.. She did use it for hunting. But that was only by herself, not with a man nor woman, or any other person. "I'm sorry... I c-can't." She said in a low tone. Trying to keep in her boundaries so badly, but something just wanted to lure her into the water with that Ginger. Meria was known to stutter, keep inside the box, and was rather flustered. ESPECIALLY, around other men a bit above her age because her hormones went crazy. As if she had been struck by lightning, never in her life had she taken a chance ever since the attack. Also, she was never in swim wear often unless she was alone because her scar was broad and right there planted on her chest. Why would anyone want to see that? It was disgusting after all, of course people would ask questions... In fact, honestly... She hated to answer them.

Thinking for another moment, about taking chances. She thought she could trust Reo, so just this once she attempted to force herself to do something. Staring at him for a moment, she raised an eyebrow, debating on whether she should or not. "Alright fine, I'll do it."She gave a small sigh removing her clothes to reveal herself in a two piece swim wear that revealed bother her stomach, legs, boobs, and chest. Her body was rather curved and built, but still soft and delicate therefore she was fine for now. She folded her clothes quickly on the side, putting them on top of a rock. She quickly, sat next to the water edge. Her body shivered as the cold water shimmered across the tip of her toes. As afraid she was, there was Reo staring at her, waiting for her to get in. She didn't want to, but she knew he'd force her anyways. Why bother with allowing him to do it, when she could do it by herself. After all, she was capable. Something just kept restraining her, despite her self-confidence. "I can't Reo... The water is too cold." She told him softly, bring her knees to her chest.

As afraid as she was, she was hesitant about Reo due to his usual trickery. He was like a ladies man except just a bit different. He was actually her friend, sort of.

From the cool water, he watched Meria debate with herself whether to get in or not to. He carelessly bobbed in the water and waited for her decision. It was a beautiful day, just the right temperature for a swim. The sky was clear and all above the two of them, there were eagles and falcons soaring through the sky. How anyone could not want to swim on a day such as this, he wondered as he heard Meria stutter her apologies and tell him that she couldn’t, confuse him. He sighed and was about to try convince her once more when she stated that she would do it. Reo smirked lightly and felt a thrill ripple through his body. As Reo looked down from the sky, he saw Meria in her two piece swim suit. He had to put in a conscience effort no to drool. Reo slowly took in Meria’s entire body, including her scar, and absent-mindedly swam closer to the riverbank as he watched her put her clothes on a rock. Just when he thought she would jump in, she suddenly appeared to change her mind giving him an excuse about the water being too cold. Meria sat down on the water’s edge and looked into those green eyes. Reo smiled softly.

It was no secret, Reo was mischievous, he loved adventures and trickery, he was always ready to do something for a laugh and for a moment he had considered pulling Meria into the water with him but as soon as he looked into her eyes, the mischievous glint disappeared from his own golden eyes. He held the eye contact and kept the softest of smiles gently place on his lips. In a soft tone of voice Reo said; “don’t be scared, the water is lovely and it’s such a beautiful day for a swim”, he wasn’t sure if he was getting through to her but he kept pushing; “I completely understand if you don’t want to swim but I think you would really enjoy it”, he flashed a bright smile and dove underneath the water to emerge in the middle, “besides, you wouldn’t want me to pull you in would you”, he added in jokingly.

Reo wasn’t quite sure how Meria would respond but he was glad he hadn’t forced her. Instead, he tried to make the water look as enticing as possible. He swam up and down for a bit and then would dive down then slowly return for air and while he did this he would casually whip his amber-red hair which would get teased by the sun. He wasn’t trying to make the water look enticing so much as he was trying to make himself look enticing. When he came up for breath for the umpteenth time, he flashed Meria the brightest of smiles and hoped that this would seal the deal.

She laughed at him, how constantly he smiled when he tried to persuade her to come into the water with him. Of course, she continued to refuse until he used her words against her. "Well played. Fine." She got up quickly, diving into the river and then rising to the water breach. Taking a deep breath, her red hair stuck to her pale white skin as if blood. She laughed slightly, feeling the movement of the water play with her skin as it rushed about. "See you got me in? Now what?" She asked him in a curious tone. After all, it was a perfect day, sunny, windy, etc. Her gaze averted to him finally, as she realized that she was only a few inches away from him. Hesitating she moved away a little, but looking away therefore it didn't turn into what she wanted to happen. Her hormones were crazing, who was she to be telling herself what to do. She couldn't be possibly in love with such a man as himself because there is a difference between being in love and loving some. Everyone knew that, of course Meria had a conscious and so forth she used it.

As she swallowed her spit quickly, trying to fill the awkward silence. She attempted to swim around, to see whatever few fishes she could find in the area. Probably because around this time it was perfect, unfortunately the season was nearing winter therefore you'd find no fishes. Disappointed to find no fishes, she made her way back up to the water. There Reo was waiting for her, another strange smile on his face. She laughed at him, as he tried to entice her in some way. She didn't know why he bothered because her heart belonged to another. Her crush, but dare she ever tell? Who knew. Meria wondered why he had taken such an interest to take her into the water. Reo was known for his tricks and his mischievous ways therefore she had to know her own boundaries and vice versa. No one exactly took a favor into Meria, unless there was actually something in common. After all, the possibilities were endless when it came to anything in the world. Some undiscovered, some uncovered, and so forth the journey always starts and stops.

Returning to reality, she stared up at the eagles as they moved across the sky dancing on the air that we breath. She smiled slightly, cocking her head, asking herself, 'Why wasn't she born as a kelvic? Therefore she could be an eagle and soar the skies instead of being such a clumsy freak.' Meria was an awkward person, always will be unless the situation caused for her to reveal her true nature then that's the situation. If it's for some pointless reason, then her mask will continue to remain behind it's shadow. As her mother did, to keep her alive and well therefore none should have looked for her. She always hid in a mask, meaning that she disguised her to be another's child. Dear mother, always had paranoia such as herself in terms of someone kidnapping her so called bundle of joy. It didn't mean that she had ownership over her but she did have guardianship.

Finally, she waded in. He was glad she was swimming alongside him; this meant that he could share the beauty of this day with somebody. He had to admit to a slight excitement that that somebody was Meria. His breathing slowed when she was inches away from him but then she abruptly swam away, Reo didn’t chase her, and instead he swam in the opposite direction and turned around to watch what she was doing. Meria returned slowly towards Reo, with the cutest look of disappointment on her face and he couldn’t help but to smirk at her pouted lips. Reo didn’t respond to her laughter, instead he let it trail off and watched Meria look up into the sky to the eagles he had also noticed not too long ago. While Meria was distracted, Reo disappeared underneath the pool of water and swam towards her only to come up right in front of her, when Meria brought her gaze back down the tips of their nose grazed each other. It felt as though time hung lifelessly in the air while Reo got lost in her green eyes.

Reo wasn’t sure what was going through his mind the entire time he stared into her eyes, there seemed to be a battle raging between his heart and his mind. His heart told him to kiss her while his mind told him to get out the river right now and go shoot arrows at a target or something. Eventually he raised his hand to brush away strand of her from her face and dove underneath the water, but this time he stayed there for a bit longer, trying to scare Meria. After a moment had passed, Reo came up behind her and whispered; “boo” as he grabbed her around the waist and casually and delicately flipped her and dipped her underneath the water. When they both came back up, Reo was in hysterics. He swam to the middle of the river where there was a big flat rock; he climbed up onto this rock and lay on his stomach watching Meria.

As Reo sat on the flat surface, he decided now was the best time to venture some serious discussion, he lay on his back and decided to tackle his question via a theme any Inartan would understand. “Meria,” he stated in an abrupt yet bold tone, “do you ever wish that you were a bird” he asked. He didn’t know how to go on, so he turned around another time so he could be lying on his back and then pulled up his feet so he could fold them underneath his body, he wanted to see Meria when he asked this question; “I mean, do you ever dream of flying away and never coming back”, he hoped he hadn’t alarmed her but it definitely felt good to get that off his chest.

As their noses brushed up against each other she felt the strangest urge in her torso. She wanted to kiss Reo, but she knew that she had to keep her boundaries in tact before she got herself into trouble. Suddenly, she found herself alone in the lake and there Reo was waiting for her on the rock. She smiled, and made her way towards the rock holding out a hand to get some help up therefore she didn’t slip. Most of the thoughts in her head were rushing with excitement that she may get her first kiss with Reo. But another side of her was saying about how she shouldn’t kiss until she was actually ready. Wait I’m fifteen, I guess I’m ready. Or something! She thought. When she heard him ask a random question, she turned her head to face him. Sadly, she must answer him because he was demanding her answer of course.

”Well yes I do because I just want to be out there, free. I have a spirit that just wants to let go but I end up making myself uncomfortable. You know? Well you probably don’t, I mean what am I saying!” She stuttered along her words as a red patch appeared across her nose bridge. Laughing at herself, she turned to look up at the eagles that soared throughout the sky. “What about you?” She asked him softly, turning her attention back to him. By then he had helped her up and she was now making her way to sit next to him. About to fall off, she made her way closer to him therefore she didn’t cause herself a definite injury. Her cold wet skin met his, she had another patch of red reaching her cheeks this time. Meria couldn’t help but laugh constantly but she could withstand her urges. At least, she was capable of it!

”So why did you choose to follow me? I mean there are a lot of other girls who would love to talk to you!” Again another smile popped up but at least she didn’t look like someone stupid as he did before. She went back to thinking about how he tried to make the water enticing by coming up and out of the water with the strangest smile on his face. He was so cute, yet so different at the same time. It wasn’t that she had a problem with him in any way, but she just found him DIFFERENT. But, of course she meant it as a good thing because honestly, she shouldn’t be talking at all. Firstly, she was rather flustered half of the time. Second, she couldn’t articulate her thoughts correctly due to her being flustered. After all, everything she did turned out to be a chain reaction. The whole: Confused, Flustered, Stuttering, Flashbacks, etc.

She wondered why she bothered living in the open if she were to be so stupid half of the time. As in, she could be a hermit crab living in a cave, never coming out, and being an animal! That would be perfectly fine with her, in fact, she would love that. No one would know her, no one would know how stupid she could be, and then she’ll be forgotten permanently. It was the perfect plan, but she needed to live life because she wasn’t getting any older anyway. At least these were just usual paranoid thoughts, so she really shouldn’t have to pay attention to them. They always sent her into major trouble, such as the time with Aidara! When she collapsed on the floor, and she found her and the whole dramatic situation, Meria always seemed to cause some sort of problem wherever she went. That’s why she never touched anyone because she was afraid of the worst.

Reo felt her soft, wet, pale skin brush against his and he had to fight down a lump in his throat. There was a soft thudding in his ears; it might have been his heart. Reo wasn’t quite sure how to react to the feelings making his body go haywire, he wanted to touch Meria but at the same time he wanted to swim away. He listened to her answer as he shifted his body weight. His fingers accidentally brushed her fingers; he pretended not to notice and instead, focussed on the red that had spread to her cheeks. Reo thought this was incredibly cute and his eyes lingered on her cheeks before they glided slowly towards her lips. He suddenly realized that they were moving and he had to respond to what she had said.

I completely understand,” Reo said in his most convincing tone, “I also want to just fly away, to distant lands, meet new people, see new places but mostly, just escape myself”, Reo said this as he finally ripped his eyes away from Meria’s lips. He could feel her skin against his; feel her blood moving through her veins underneath the exterior, he could feel her shiver from the cold. He placed one arm around her waist in an attempt to keep her warm, and then tried to answer her question. He wasn’t quite sure why he had followed her, it was more of an impulse, and he just knew that he wanted to. So Reo replied, “Because I wanted to”, he hoped he didn’t sound cheeky, “I wanted to speak to you because the other girls aren’t as interesting or as fun”. Reo had been looking away all the time he had answered the question. Now, when he looked back, he was confronted with those lips and those beautiful green eyes.

His heart started racing again, the lump in his throat came back and he was sure his palms were slightly sweaty. He didn’t know what it was about those green eyes but they pulled him in, they told him everything was going to be ok and he believed them. Reo wanted to kiss her but he wasn’t sure how he would act afterwards, how she would act afterwards. There were so many outcomes of this one moment, so many things that could go wrong. Reo hesitated, his hand came up to her red, warm cheek. Finally, disregarding any and all outcomes, he leant in and pressed his lips to hers. He pressed with controlled passion, with fiery determination, with wonder and excitement. Reo kissed as only an Inartan would know how.

Her arms wrapped around his, as if a dragon was whipping itself around it's small prey. Hers finally settled on either side of his head. Her lips teased his; fiery with passion. His body pressed against hers, her mouth opened to his as the two kissed each other with passion. After a few minutes, the kiss finished with a soft patch of blush along her nose bridge.

"That was.. sweet." Her reaction was soft, but she didn't know his after all, she wasn't a person who had the gift to predict the future. Or at least something like that. Her gaze turned to the sky with a soft smile. "Beautifull and Magical." She pointed to the many eagles that soared through the sky. It was as if her mind had totally gone off the complete subject that the two had just had an intimate kiss. In her head she thought if he'd ask for her to be his mate, but she couldn't do that. She was too young! "Anyways, I guess I should be going. It's getting dark..." Her voice trailed off quickly as she thought of tactics to avoid him. It wasn't that she didn't like him or anything but she was afraid of getting hurt. As any girl would be, but she just felt the need to keep the barrier she had with him. Leave the friendship as it is, because it was so nice! Why would she want to ruin that?

Reo may not have understood due to his sudden desire for her but she had a sense that this was not right. She was striving to be an artisan and he was merely a Dek. At least that was what she thought he was... On the other hand, she was still a Yasi. Continuing to make her way up in the caste's hoping to become an Artisan or maybe even a Eagle Rider. Another goal of any other Yasi although she had to wait because these things took time. Alstroemeria always strives for the best despite her flaws here and there. All she really wanted though was to be accepted by her peers. Reo for instance, accepted her... Dearly. Therefore, now what?
