And How Does That Make You Feel? (M?)

[Lampsy]

Gio looked up at the male with his big blue eyes, trying to read his expression. His pink tongue poking out cutely as he strained to grasp Gabriel's hair. Suddenly the male pushed his hands back towards his body and pet them. Gio's head tilted for a moment at his question, but soon was interrupted by Gio's hind legs and other arm wrapping around Gabriel's hand, and his put his mouth around the thumb, knawing on it harmlessly, the teeth merely sliding across his skin... Salty... Mmm... He started to lick his hand, the salty taste of skin was weird but enjoyable. He didn't know why, but it seemed that all cats enjoyed tha salty taste om skin. Gio's own cat back home would lick his fingers when they were salty. Gabriel's must have had a little left over from cooking. Gio continued to explore Gabriel's kitty limits, crawling up and down his arms and nuzzling him. His reaction to cats amused Gio, bringing him back to his more human qualities.

But this was inturrupted by one of Gio's portals opening up, a small scroll falling from it and onto the table. His head snapped to the side, his curious blue eyes gazing the scroll... It came from his portal... And it had his crest... Gio reacted before Gabriel could, launching himself up into the air and through a portal. Only Gio would be abke to open the message anyway, its bindings were made by Vexian Silk, and could only be destroyed by a Vexian's Being... And to simply that, their portal's fire He appeares out of another portal, only this time, the blue ribbon was a thick thorned whip, black in color. His tail gripped the instrument, and with more force than a small cat should have, his tail whipped it back and forth, the end hitting the scroll with a loud crack and blue flames cascading down the edges as it lashed forward. The golden threads holding the scroll locked cut like string and it opened. Gio used his body to open the scroll and read it. It was written in Eldrin, a language only the oldest of Seron can speak, let alone write or read... Gio was one of the ones who could... Hell... He practically invented the language. Not caring if Gabriel saw the scroll, he read everyrhing thoroughly before grasping it in his mouth. Gio created a small portal and he carried it to the flame, dipping the edge in the blue flickering substance, the scroll not catching flame, but crumbling out of existance. It was a warning... from himself. Gio looked over at Gabriel with his big blue innocent eyes, his tail circling the air gently, the whip swishing with it as it it were an extension of his tail. He took a few steps towards Gabriel... Those few steps became a running leap, in which he disappeared into a portal, and reappeared on top of Gabriel's head, the whip now once again a blue bow.

Gio let out a mewl as he was pulled from his perch again. He walked on the table, the way he stomped his feet making it seem as if he were pouting. He sat on his hind legs and looked at Gabriel with his adorable eyes, deciding what to do next.

Gio walked around the table for a few moments before jumping around the kitchen and made a portal again, landing on Gabriel's head, but before he could do anything, Gio slipped through another portal. He came out on top of the cabinets again, just walking calmly for a few feet and into another portal. He then walked in the air a few feet from Gabriel's face, moving towards him, using small portals as stepping stones. He didn't stop his pace and he went through another portal at the last second. For a few seconds he seemed to disappear before a bowl dropped onto the table just after a tiny rattling in the cabinets. Then there was a small thud coming from the fridge, and another portal opened, but a steady stream of milk poured out of it and into the bowl. Moments later, Gio was back on the table again, padding towards the milk. His pink tongue poked out to lap up the milk, his catty senses enjoying the delicious flavor.

[/i] can kiss my arse!" He shouted back her his anger causing his voice to raise far beyond an appropriate level for the hallway, an accent foreign to the countries slipping between his lips with his anger.[/font][/div][/ul][/ul][/ul][/ul][/ul][/ul][/ul][/ul][/ul][/ul]

Gio, drinking his milk, was disturned greatly by the crashes. In fact, they striked his sensitive ears so bad that he got dizzy and off balance. A tiny pained mewl left his mouth and he turned to look for Gabriel only to find him missing. He must be going to see what made the sound. Gio, under such assumption, went back to his milk... That is until the sound of talking ensued.

There were more people... Gio sniffed the air, picking up another scent... An unknown person. Gio's eyes flashed pink for a split second before going back to normal. Gio stalked out of the kitchen, using his portals to walk on. He followed the scent and sound to his wing. He stopped when he was around the corner from the he was staying in. Leo was asleep... He could hear the male's slleping breathes.

Gio, curious to the situation, walked into a portal and landed right on Gabriel's head. What? This was one of the few ways Gio could attempt to annoy the male. He let out a tiny little mewl and he tilted his head at the lady. His cute bow decorated tail swished behind him as his large, innocent, aqua eyes bore into the females. 'Mreowwww' he mewled out again. That was went he noticed the tension in Gabriel. Gio mewled and moved down to his shoulder and nuzzles his face, letting out a tiny mewl and purr to try and get him to calm down.

[/i] long enough. Leave. Now." The woman pouted but had clearly become intimidated by Gabriel as she moved to leave the brothers' wing. "Your father isn't going to like this," She muttered as he followed her out of the wing and closed the doors behind him.

"As I said, my father can kiss my arse," He retorted, folding his arms over his chest. "But you clearly don't understand the situation. He would be delighted about this arrangement." He was still angry. There was a strong disdain him for this woman and it made it extremely difficult for him to maintain himself in her presence.

Adara paused at those words, her gaze flicking back and forth rapidly between Gabriel and the blue bowed feline. "Gabey...? That's not a--?"

"Say another word and he won't save you, mother." He said slowly, her title rolling off his tongue with almost every ounce of anger he felt. Still, she opened her mouth once, closed it, then opened it again obviously trying to think of something she could say without upsetting Gabriel further, knowing that when he said 'he' Gabriel had been referring to the feline.

"At least let me clean up?" She was practically begging him. Gabriel released a sigh at her words then picked up his feet to carry him away from the female.

"I apologize about her, Giovanni," He muttered, not entirely sure why he was apologizing for her, but he was.[/font][/div][/ul][/ul][/ul][/ul][/ul][/ul][/ul][/ul][/ul][/ul]

Gio looked at the male as he was carried away. He looked up at the males chin and nuzzled with with his cute little nose, drawing Gabriel's attention, and he spoke. He... Apologized? Weird.

Gio pondered on the words the two shared... Or spat. Gabriel seemed to either really hate the woman, or really want to hate her. Then again, it was his guess. 

Gio looked at Gabriel in though for a moment before jumping up, his tiny body soaring into a portal. Another portal opened, and there he came, full sized, normal Gio, landing on the ground with his tippietoes like a cat, the action graceful and almost silent.

Gio turned to look at the male with his big baby blue eyes. "U-Uhm.... I don't wanna be pushy... B-But who was t-that... I-I thought p-people couldn't get i-in here..." Gio looked now at the ground, his ears pressed down and his tail drooping, chewing his own lip out of nerves. He didn't want to offend Gabriel or overstep any lines... He just needed to make sure that Leo was safe with whoever that woman was here. 

What Gio really wanted to ask, was why the woman was here, and her reaction to Gio. There was clearly something going on that he wasn't going to be told... He didn't like it... He wanted to know why this man, who noteably isn't the most happy go lucky, social butterly kinda guy, wants two Vexian in his home to cause trouble. What was his purpose in being here? And a better question... Why would his father love this arrangement? That was the statement that alerted all of Gio's red flags that he had in the beginning. Gio was very... Confused... And done with the lies.

[/i] She knows you two are protected by me and will honor that." He said, emphasizing the bit about Leo having realized the level of importance Giovanni placed on his brother.[/font][/div][/ul][/ul][/ul][/ul][/ul][/ul][/ul][/ul][/ul][/ul]

Gio nodded shyly, putting a few pieces together. He flinched lightly at the irritation in his voice, his ears moving to lay flat against his head. He looked at Gabriel with large innocent eyes as he spoke, the aqua orbs swimming with unanswered questions. 

Hearing him speak again, Gio could only nod. He sat down on the space provided and lets his knees come up to his chest. He let his arms fold over them, placing his head sideways into newly created nook to look over to Gabriel. The way he huddled himself was like a child would when they had a feeling they would be sitting there for a while. His ears sort of drooped with the force of gravity, and his long blue hair casted shadows on his face. 

Hearing that the woman wouldn't hurt Leo soothed Gio's worries greatly. He wad glad that ge didn't have to worry about leaving his brother alone to rest. It would give him the time he needed to talk to Gabriel about why he took them in. At this point, Gio was set on knowing why they were here, and what purpose they would be serving for Gabriel's kindness. He had a feeling that Gabriel wouldn't purposly try to put them in danger, but he had a tiny notion that the reason why he protected them was dangerous. "So... Explain..." He spoke softly, "And how can we help?..." He finished, having the thought that they would be helping the male with his dilemma either way.

Gio found himself confused from the start. Wait.. So.. There were Vexian in his world? Did they escape there? Why were they there, and why didn't they return home? He chewed his lip in thought. Then it clicked.

"I think I understand what happened..." He spoke softly. "Once a year, all Vexian have to go to our own dimension where we are all connected. It's sort of a tradition. My father was Leon, the Guardian of Animals, and my mother was Gionova, the Mother of Children. My brother and I are their first kids and the first offical of the species, so from day one its always been a really big family thing I guess. Once a year we would all gather in our world, one inaccesable to anyone but us, and we would feast. So if there was random times in your world where Vexian disappeared long ago, that would be why. But one year, we had all just gotten together, and somehow a hunter had gotten in. They sat under out feet, and under the ground we walked was an abyss. They filled the abyss with lightning. All of it. When the celebration portion starts the ground disppears and becomes cloud, and the only way to get around is by portal. But as soon as the gound went down all of the trapped lightning below shot up and started to... well... kill. A few of us got away with minor shocks. All of the Frukai Trees were gone, so we couldn't heal. The only reason Leo, Kielev, Joshev, and I lived was because of Seith. But even with his power, he wasn't able to help the rest. Not even the Nature Guardian can grow a Frukai Tree instantly. It's impervious to the powers of time and space. They have to be grown naturally." He explained, his voice getting a bit shaky as he got into the more emotional bits. "But they must have left one year and never came back." He said. "There were a few hundred of us who didn't choose to live in Seron out our dimension. They were probably there, in your world. But we are basically a myth at this point. Its been millions of years since we have been... known to exist, even in our world. I don't know how time runs in your world, but I'd bet that it is probably a lot longer than here if Vexian are considered myth." He proposed, letting him process the information.

Gio thought a little bit more about Gabriel's father. "I wouldn't mind if you told your father." he started, a tiny bit of nervousness in his voice. "But I would like to be there when you did..." He started. "If he is as powerful as you say, he might know Seith, the ruler of my world." He spoke softly, hoping that the idea didn't piss Gabriel off further.
