*Broll not used to having his cheek stroked blushes a bit, turning a slighty warmer shade of his normal blue-grey colour. He decides that now he has been recognised he can safely change shape, into the human form he was previously in. As he changes from wall form to human he carefully notes where Midnight's feet are so not to tread on them. As he changes into human form he releases it is a bit of a tight squeeze as he can feel himself coming into contact with Midnight.*
*Upon completing the change he decides to stroke Midnight's cheek. * You may have been through a fair bit, but you feel as nice as you always have been. I found you lieing unconscious on a footpath. Nobody else was in sight and it wasn't safe to leave you out there, so I brought you back to the safety of this cave.
Wolf over there helped me unlock my memory and now I remember. I have taken to helping others ever since you helped me a fairly long time ago. Do you remember that time Midnight? ...or should I say do you remember that time Rhiannon?

*Midnight's cheeks regained their pinkness of mere moments ago but her head bolted upright at the mention of her birth name.*
How did you??
*Midnight backed off from Broll a pace or two to give him room and breathing space.*

I take it from your reaction that you do not entirely remember when we first met. I know it was many years a go now, but I am sure when we met I was in human form, though prehaps looking younger then than I do now, I'm not too sure though. You were also younger, and if I recall doing some training away from a place I think you called Arios.
Do you remember now about that time you helped me?

*Midnight closes her eye's again looking to the past.A time that still held it's mysteries from her. Her search goes for several minutes taking her time searching through memories that at times were new to her.*
I was young at the time...no more than 10 if I recall rightly. I must of trusted you very well to give out such information....
*Midnight opens her eyes.*
The memory is vague but will come properly given time...I could do something to relive the memory but I'm in no fit state for that right now. I know something of value was involved...just not sure why I helped. My kind tend to watch rather than interfere with other people's buisness.
*Midnight's sit's down again as another wave of dizziness takes hold of her. Looking to the food....*
May I?

I'm sure there is enough food to go around, I have feed recently so I do not need to eat more. If you have been through a lot in the near past, it can be harder to recall events that happenned much longer ago.
*Broll sits himself down and leans against the wall of the cave.*

*Midnight watche's the man named Wolf for severeal minutes. Slowly taking a medium sized piece of meat and eating it delicately and taking sips of water from a skin left on the ground. Turning her neck to the side she feels her hair cling and what water left dripping down, trickling down her back and neck. Finishing off what meat she has in her hands she then takes some string she has and ties her hair into a plaitt out of her way. Deciding before she gives her story to gain the other's or at least Broll's since their last meeting in Wolfenden.* What have you been up to Broll? Since you helped me and Mog at Marcus's house? Which reminds me I believe I owe you some knowledge in return for that?

*Broll thinks over what has happened to him since they had last met.* Well I haven't really done that much since I last parted company with you. After returning from Marblehead after placing the Count there, I ended changing into human form on the full moon. In human form I wonder past Dunnfalls from the forest, and on to the Craized Heffer, before going across Wolfenden Market and visiting the Wolf Howl Inn. From being in the Inn I went back into the wall, and for some time I wonder around Wolfenden. Recently I went to back to the Craized Heffer in wall form, where I met Wolf and another person who called himself Pyron. Unfortunately Owen didn't take too kindly to a non-paying wall monster being in the Heffer and told me to get out. From there I went back to Dunnfalls, where Wolf unlocked my memory for me. In regards to what do you owe me, well to be honest with my memory regained I do not need as much knowledge. See my help to you as being merely me returning the help that you gave me that time long ago when we first met. Still I suppose you don't mind if I ask merely for your kindness. So what have been up to since I last saw you? and would you rather I called you Midnight or Rhiannon?

*Midnight smiled at Broll briefly thinking to herself.*
Such a easy uncomplicated part of life. Lucky guy...wonder if he realises how lucky he is. To have nothing to worry about, nothing to fear, nothing to fight.....no bad dreams that scare him in the middle of the night. Nothing to avenge and nothing that can track him down...nothing to protect. Yet also sounds pretty lonely....with no one to back up and no one to back him up.....just like me for so long...but now I have that....when I track them down again.
*Her mind wanders to her friends..to Tom and Zeph and Diana and Coriolis......thinking of them reminds her....*
Broll when you saved me was there anyone else on the path? A man in rather odd clothes or another man with a talking moth called Diana?

*Broll pauses to think* I don't recall seeing anyone when I travelled from this cave to where I found you. I did detect a possible presence of someone else or someones in the nearish to you, with a kilometer. However in these parts, particularly near the forest it is best not to find out what it is that is nearby.
I was initially in wall form when I arrived and carried you by ripples, so could not see due to a lack of height. Though I switched into human form to go up the slope, and then I didn't see anyone about.

*Midnight looks down at the ground holding back tears. Tom was gone.....Tom was dead and damin it...it was all her fault. If she hadn't of bloody tripped....*
DAMN IT!!
*Midnight curses aloud before standing up and heading for the exit of the caves...Turning round to Broll and Wolf.*
I'll be back in a minute...I've lost something....of great value.
*With that Midnight walked off. Giving herself time to look for herself and the chest and hopefully Malark. Walking back towards where she last saw Tom she spies Malark curled up a ballish like shape under one of the many plants. She walks over to him and bends down gently stroking his head.*
Hey there...
*He looks up instantly at the sound of her voice and gives her a somewhat confused look. Midnight put's her hand to her head and when brings it back see's blood on it.*
Yup I'm a bit of a mess right now...need a good clean up and rest don't I?
*Midnight says with a smile picking Malark up gently and going back towards the shore where her and Tom and quickly left the chest in their attempted escape from the Assasin. The chest is half in and half out the water. Placing Malark on her shoulder Midnight picks up the chest and with a couple of breaks brings them to the cave. Placing the chest along one of the walls closest to her and Malark on the floor she takes her place where she was before. Looking between the two men.*
Sorry about that but it had to be done.
*Midnight picks up another piece of meat and smiles slightly at the taste...not brilliant meat but it would be enough. Looking up suddenly somewhat ashamed and shy.*
Thank you both.

No problem, I take it that that is your pet and isn't food. *Broll says jokingly*
I notice you haven't yet answered my questions... What have been up to since I last saw you? and would you rather I called you Midnight or Rhiannon?

*Midnight smiles.*
He's definatly not food. His name is Malark and he's a crab...obviously.
Please call me Midnight....only one person calls me Rhiannon and most of the time he get's asked to call me Midnight.
*Midnight takes a brief pause.*
As for what I've been upto since out last meet up.....well that's a very long story.
*Midnight goes into a rather brief but still lengthy talk about her life since Marcus but leaves out details. Like Hakonatu being after them or indeed them after him.
*Looking over to Wolf quickly she decided some could be trusted others had to gain it.*
The reason I was unconscious was that I had just run into a enemy...
*Her eye's flash anger briefly*
Me and a friend of mine were injurd as was the enemy...but it seems my friend died due to it while I was unconscious...either that or he was kidnapped.
*Looking over to Broll she hears a gentle snoring and notices that the wall monster has fallen asleep. With a smiles she turns to looks back at Wolf...*
Glad to see he found it as exciting as I did.

"and who wouldnt, quite the adventure youve had"
Wolf turns to face midnight and then walks to the wall opposite her and sits against it.
" you may join him in slumber if you so wish, you look like you could do with it"

*Midnight mutter's under her breath.*
and it's not finished yet.
*She watches Wolf as he moves. He moved quietly and stealthly yet not really with any grace.*
I probably will after I've cleaned myself up some what and had a close look at the chest I brought in with me.
*Midnight walks out side of the cave and over to the pool. Looking round the glade she is reminded of a day not too far gone of a semi-faded tiger appearing out of no where and a swimming Moogle. Smiling slightly she takes her blade from it's sheath and slowly and gently cuts a couple of pieces of fabric from the arms of ter top. Her face lacks concentration as her mind travels back to strange yet better days than this.*
*Evening out the arms as best she can with the resources she has. Placing her dagger back to where it belongs she slowly dips the the rags into the water and wrings them out as tightly as possible. Using the pool as a mirror she cleans the dirt and dried blood from her face and arms, clouding the water with the waters sudden movement. She sits by the shore and watches as the sun sets as she continues her work. Thinking of friends and family. Of the past and not even daring to dream about the future.*
If only life was simple...but it never was and never will be.
*Midnight skims her hand across the water before taking the rags out of the pool wringing them out again and walking back into the cave.*

*As Midnight re-enters the cave Broll awakes* Oh it's you Midnight, I had a feeling it was someone I knew. I can sense when someone is coming towards me or getting closer to me, whatever form I take.
*Broll looks over towards Midnight, but feeling tired remains where he is, moving only his eyes.*
