The big city.

Ivy smirked at Aline.

"Yes," She said simply. "Because it bothers you."
~~~~~
Ether glared at him.

Ashlyn rolled over in her sleep. Unlike her normal self, she looked almost.....sad.
~~~~
"Oh," Ava said quietly. She smiled slightly at him. She thought that she was still asleep with Nick, and she didn't want to wake up.

Aline glared at her. "I hate you."

~~
Felix touched her arm and again and gave her happy dreams.

~~
Blake brushed some of Ava's hair out of her face.

"Wake up, please, Av."

~~
Noah just nodded, he seemed depressed.

Ashlyn soon relaxed. Ether was pouting.
~~~~~
Ivy smirked.

"I hate you, too," She said simply.
~~~~~
"Hey...are you sure you're alright?" Ava asked quietly. "You seem depressed." She heard Blake, but still thought it was Nick, and so she ignored it.

Felix sighed, and looked at Mason.

~~
"It looks like we finally agree on something." Aline said.

~~
"Yes, I'm fine." Noah said.

~~
Blake stood up. "I'll start the water. Maybe I sould do hot this time." He said truning around to walk out of the room.

Ivy laughed.

"Yes, I guess so," She said, and began sending Brianna nightmares again. She whimpered, turning over in her sleep.
~~~~~~~
Ava was ignoring who she thought was Nick, not that their voice was very clear to begin wtih

"Are you sure?" She asked Nick, worried.
~~~~~~~
"I wonder why she's letting him stay," Ether mused aloud.

"I wouldn't mind knowing that myself." Felix said.

~~
Noah sighed. "No."

~~
Blake came in a few moments later.

~~
Aline pushed the nightmares away.

"You can tell me, you know," Ava said simply. She liked Noah; he was the one who had saved her before, and he seemed nice.
~~~~~
Ether frowned, and poked Ashlyn. She mumbled something and turned over, facing the wall.
~~~~~~
Brianna slept peacefully again. Ivy frowned.

Blake kissed her softly on the forhead, and picked her up.

~~
"I don't know why." Noah said after a moment.

~~
Felix sighed.

~~
Aline sat next to her. "He must of have had a wife, right, and had a kid. Otherwise Brianna wouldn't be his discendent."




((Yes, he did, but he hated his wife. The kid was a boy))

Ava flinched when 'Nick' kissed her forehead. She could barely feel it. Then she looked at Noah.

"Well, I'm sure you'll feel better soon," She offered him a small smile.
~~~~~~
"Yep," Was all Ivy said. "What's your point?"
~~~~~
Ether poked him instead.

Blake sighed and walked into the bathroom.

He sat her on the edge of the tub and put her bare feet into the hot water.

~~
Noah smiled back. "Thank-you"

~~
"I don't understand, why he would fall in love with . . ." She paused. "/you./"

~~
Felix looked at Ether. "What?"

Ivy shot her a glare.

"What's that supposed to mean??" She demanded, though she had wondered the same thing.
~~~~~~
Ava jumped as her feet burned slightly. She looked down, but nothing was there. She shrugged it off and instead smiled at him.

"No problem," She said. She looked around, then back at him. "It's sort of peaceful here, you know?" She asked.
~~~~~
Ether shrugged, then looked back at Ashlyn.

"You don't seem the type he would fall for." Aline said.

~~
Blake frowned. He pushed her on to her knees in the water.

~~
"Not if you been here for so long." Noah said.

"One could assume by parents Carlisle meant you both." Rose said, her words cruel but her voice gentle.

"And what type am I, exactly?" Ivy asked, raising an eyebrow at her in the dark.
~~~~~
In the bathroom, Ava's body slumped to the side. She was still out.

In her head, she frowned as she felt more hot water. What was going on??

She turned to Noah, and smiled.

"I guess not," she said.
~~~~~
"Yes, yes," Andrea said again. "Well, once you've found....Isaac, come and get me. I'll be here," She said simply, sounding uninterested.

Blake let the rest of her body slip into the hot water.

~~
"Not his type." Aline said bitterly.

~~
Issac was in the underworld walking around aimlessly.

~~
Mr. Redbird was also in the under world. He was sitting next to a wall.

Ivy laughed silghtly, enjoying how much this was bugging her.
~~~~~
Ava still didn't stir, though her entire body had slipped uner the water, including her head.

She was about to say something to Noah when she found she couldn't breathe. Her eyes widened, and she tried to speak, but still couldn't find a breathe.

Blake quickly pulled Ava out the water.

~~
Aline glared at her.

Ava fell to her knees, and gasped when she could finally breathe. She looked around, panicked, wondering what had just happened to her body. What had Nick done? She looked at Noah, still trying to catch her breathe.
~~~~~~~
Ivy returned the glare.

Blake sighed.

"Ava, why won't you wake up? I'm not Nick, it Blake." He said warping her in a towl and takeing her back tothe bed she been useing.

~~
"Tell me what were they like his wife and kid." Aline said.




((Just make something up.))

"His wife was....nice, I guess," Ivy said. "She really loved him, and was always trying to please him," She said, sounding somewhat disgusted. "She was all the things I hate."

She looked somewhat distant.

"His kid was just annoying. Loud, snot-nosed brat," She said. "At least he was the last time I saw him."
~~~~~~~~
Soon the circus faded out. Ava frowned, and thought she was waking up. But she didn't. Instead, she found herself floating around in the darkness, able to hear and feel what her body was clearly now.

Blake brushed her hair out if her face. "Av? I'm sorry I let Nick take you again. I souldn't have left you." Blake said, blamming himself. "I sould have known better, but I'm an idoit, a fool." He didn't think she could hear him anymore. "Why you would are for me is beyond me, I can't even keep you safe." He hated him self right now. "No matter what I try, I can't keep you safe. And then this happens. You end up being asleep, and I can't even wake you up." He said. "Why do you even retrun my feelings? If I can't protect you?" He hated himself beyound belife. He didn't know what to do. He hated seeing her this way. He held her hand.

~~
"What was his name?" She asked.





((I don't care what his name was.))

Rose glared slightly and disappeared from Heaven altogether. She was now in the Underworld, not even knowing the Underworld didn't help her. She had a bloody wound over her heart as she searched about uncomfortably.

Ava wanted to say something.

"No, it's not your fault. It's my own fault. And I return your feelings because you're sweet.....this isn't your fault. Please don't blame yourself."

But she couldn't, so she was silent. She felt him take her hand, and tried with all of her might to hold his back. All she could manage was a small twitch of her finger.
~~~~~
"Samuel," Ivy said.

Blake didn't feel the twich of her finger.

"How am I to protect you?" Blake voice sounded strained. "I fail so many times." He sighed. "I would understand if you wanted to leave. Why would you want to be around someone who lets you be taken?" He said. "I can never protect anyone I love." And he wasn't just talking about Suki, but about Cora, and his sisters, and his best friend, Elliot.

~~
Aline nodded. "And the wife?"

~~
Mr. Redbird looked at Rose as she started walking by. Then she looked down at the floor. He was a tall man, with dark brown hair, and dark green eyes. If you stood Tyler and Blake next to him you would see Tyler looked alot more like him. Tyler was tall, while Blake was a few inches shorter. Tyler looked alot like his father and the face too, while Blake's freatrues were shaper, more like his mothers. Even woth these little diffrenrices they both looked awefully lot like their father.

~~
Issac was wonderig aimlessly, thinking.

Ava wanted to talk, she wanted to say something, but she couldn't.

She manged to squeeze his hand lightly, but that was all she could do. It used up the energy she had built up, and she slipped back into unconciousness.
~~~~~~
"Janice," Ivy said.
