A Siren's call issued from the graveyard a low sultry males voice that seemed to contain the worlds sorrow with in his deepening song. The song was of a male siren, he was not calling out to capture any woman's heart or enrage that of men instead his sorrow filled song was for himself. It was his own words to his own heart.
“ fall slowly...sink into the water for a birds wings are nothing there...keep at bey...fall to the ground a man's heart is fickle in the dark...Deep diving...even fishes are crushed by the water they love...” the words rung out clear as a bell. As the sky slowly darkened even more over shadowing the Grey moon that was the only light on this being with out a heart. His face was thrown even more into darkness by the clouds that gathered as if entranced there by his song. It was a young face but not to young the youthfully look of someone in there early 20. his long hair as black as the sky above him fell over his shoulders as his body was clad in fabric so white that even then it was visible. “fall slowly...sink into the water for a birds wings are nothing there...keep at bey...fall to the ground a man's heart is fickle in the dark...Deep diving...even fishes are crushed by the water they love...”
his voice once again seemed to echo on nothing. This was the sirens call but in such a deserted spot it meant nothing. Among the headstones and wooden markers his voice could only be heard by the dead who had no ears to hear it. He was safe to sing here Safe to be himself in the darkness he let his form drop. Claw like feet that seemed to belonged to a bird appeared where his shoes had been and feathers sprouted along his long arms. His handsome face however did not change it remained the same. Youthful and handsome. His hair turned to feathers a long plume like on a fire bird. But his coloring made him almost indistinguishable from the surrounding atmosphere as they where as black as the night around him.
“ Fall lovers, fall and take your hearts with you, A bird of prey does not need them...Fall friends, fall fast and take your friendship with you, a bird of prey hunts alone”he continued to sing to himself his eyes glazed over as he let his own mind fall into the despair contained in his own song. He had forgotten how it felt to sing freely and he had forgotten how much his soul ached for freedom from his own voice. He was a Siren and no matter how much he wished to be 'normal' ,if there was such a word, it was out of his grasps. His feathers seemed to slowly change from black to green a deep green like the forests. He envied them all humans they simply interacted with one another with out having to think about there voice. Slowly his form started to go back to its human appearance as he slowly stopped singing his song. His long hair once black was now the same shade of green as his feathers had been. He sighed and leaned back against one of the headstones.

Joey was walking along a darkened path as she noticed the clouds above were slowly enclosing in on to her destination. As she continued to walk in complete silence, she could hear the echoes of what seemed to be a broken heart. She was wearing her usual attire being black, baggy pants with a red tang top and her katana strapped to her side. Her hair was down, covering her pale skin, bouncing with every step.
As she continued to walk, the voice got stronger and stronger, she knew where the man was as she entered the entrance of the grave. She held for a brief second as she closed her auburn eyes and tried to make out the words of the man that was leaning up on her father’s grave, the only person she would ever owe her life to, this man was rudely sitting by it.
Her head was filling up with rage and thoughts as she stood there as rigid as a statue, although she looked as calm as the water. Joey slowly looked up and closed her eyes to be greeted by a drop of water, she knew it was going to rain, which is the reason why she was making her way to the graveyard. As she has never shed a tear since her hunting of her parents, she believes that the tears that fall from the sky could not even express the tears that she has not shed towards her father. As her glance returned to the man, nothing seemed to be changing, although she did notice that he had stopped signing and was now resting his head on to the grave stone.
She knew that this was the time to make her move. She quickly moved in with tremendous speed. Having jumped over the grave stone and pulled a 180 in the air, she stared straight at this strange man. Once she had a brief look at him, she crouched down. In a demanding and serious tone, she looked at him sharply and asked “who are you and what do you want?”.
At this point in time, rain started to fall down from the sky, soaking her red, shoulder length hair drop by drop. Her glare never broke from him as she awaited for his anster.

The rain fell heavy on the man who sung witch such a beatiful voice. his eyes slowly moved to look at the child who had interrupted his peace and quiet. they where handsome eyes like two sapphires resting there. his long black bangs fell into his eyes making them look even more like a deep mystery.
"I was merely resting here..." the Siren said softly, his voice was like silk smooth and gentile it didn't seem to falter even to this girl that stood in front of him. he stood up slowly showing his true hight witch rivaled most. his body was lean and clothed in all white from head to foot a white trench coat rested partial on his shoulders while a white tank top was visible underneath. his pants where white and seemed to form to his body the same way leather did. "Have I caused any problems...My name is Master Fox" he said giving her a half bow. to this woman in front of him. he was calm to calm to be like any normal person. his eyes looked her over and then he nodded understanding. This one had great potental in her just like the rest did. she was one of them but she had yet to be awoken.

Joey looked at this man almost in disgust. She didn’t know at first how to react. His voice was so soft and nice for her but she wouldn’t give up. This is not his territory, why is he here? She kept on crowding her mind with numerous questions simply to be more enraged by them.
Joey stood as Master Fox did although she took a few steps back to keep her distance. She looked up at him and reformed her stubborn face and asked him sternly once again “What do you want?”. One would easily read through her actions that she has an issue with trusting anyone, no matter what they look like or how they sound.
Her hands were by her side ready to engage in battle if necessary, although she knew that she wouldn’t move from where she was as this was very disrespectful of him. Of course he wouldn’t know about her past or anything about her, but she didn’t care, all she wanted was for him to get out of the way so as that her father could be at peace again.
She stood there immobilized nearly in a stance reading his moves and awaiting his reply, yet again. She didn’t care if she was rude, although she simply wanted a straight answer.

she asked him why he was here and his face seemed to frown slightly.
"To get away..." he said softly. he always came to sucluded spots to be alone with his song to be abel to sing freely was his passion. the tall man looked at her with a soft frown. his hair was slowly changing to a light white color like fallen snow. this was one of his secrets alone like this his hair was allowed to change like it had since he was born. it changed in responce to his emotions. the man slowly walked closer to her. he sinced what she was but he was in no mood to bring her in. he was no jumper or Demoni so why should he take her in.
Meanwhile
A man stood at the top of the hill the cemetery sat on. his body seemed to blend in with the shadows and sillouets of the graves around him. his long light teal hair fell into one of his handsom purple eyes. he was a handsome man as he watched the two below him. he wore black leather pants with a black trench coat and a tight buckled top.
"Ah hah..." he said softly as he looked down at Joey with a smirk. she was his target after all. the man messed with the collar around his neck slightly as he slinked towards them using the shadows to cover him.

Joey looked at the Siren and felt a little bad, she understood where he was coming from, but she still wouldn’t let up. She looked at him with a calmer look as she seen the frown. It reminded her so much more of her father’s disappointment from back when she was a child.
Her head shot down as her eyes glued themselves to the ground. She didn’t need to see this, it was why she came here in the first place, to ‘grieve’ the only way she could. She slowly brought her attention back up to the Siren and mumbled an apology before she turned around.
Once she turned around and took a step, she had a small glimpse of something moving in the shadow, but she chose to ignore it. She walked up about 20 feet where there was a fence and leaned up against it as it hung over the small town below. She stood there silently listening to every rain drop. By now, she knew someone else was also present. She was not pleased that she was not the only one here, but she figured ‘what could she do… There are others that need peace as well ‘
It didn’t take long before her clothes were completely drenched as the rain began to fall harder. She continued to look up, appreciating what the sky was expressing to her, the only thing she is unable to express herself, sadness.

the man with the teal hair followed he as sh walked over to the fence. he watched her silently as she stood there the man she had been talking to was obviously like himself but not of the same group. he ignored him as the man walked through a portal to get away from both of them. the teal haired man walked up behind her and put a kind hand on her sholder.
"...you seem sad..." he said softly. as he leaned forward slightly to look at her. he was handsom almost as much as the man she had spoken to before but his was slightly different his was exotic rather then princely. his tall body was well mucled and on his forhead was a bindi like marking of three triangles. around his neck was a slightly over sized collar.

Joey didn’t know what was happening. The presence of the man that was there disappeared, although she could tell that the other man was beginning to get stronger as it was a different presence. As his hand lay on her shoulder, she didn’t move, shudder or anything. She just continued to stand there as she waited for an explanation.
As she heard his words come out of his mouth, she got a glimpse of his real form. She grabbed the man’s hand off of her shoulder as she turned around slowly, making sure there was enough room between the two of them. Looking at him, she began to wonder what was up with the men and why they seemed different, but that was quickly changed.
“Do you know where we are?” She calmly asked.

"A graveyard...but that is of little concern to me I have come here to get you spacificly..." the teal haired man said his voice calm but quiet. he didnt mind this part of his job there were always new people to go and retrive. he knew she would be in for a shock the moment she found out everything he to had been in such a state at first but soon he had learned to love what was going on. he looked at her with his purple eyes.
"My name is Dev it's nice to meet you I have come here to talk with you about something of great importaints" he laughed looking in her eyes. he had to admit she was a pretty young girl and he was glad he had been sent to get her. it was instant infatuation for the DearS

Joey looked at this man, and listening to his reasoning for disturbing her attempt at peace was rather degrading to her. She stared at the man for a short amount of time taking in everything he had to say.
As the rain continued to poor down, she looked up at the sky exposing her pale skin to everything. Her eyes closed as she let out a small chuckle. She didn’t care that he was here to get her, he couldn’t do anything to get her to go anywhere. As her head came down again, she took a step left and stopped.
Her attention was brought back to the man as she stated in a low and serious tone. “Obviously you don’t know me… Bugger off before I make you bugger off. There’s nothing important for me out there, everything I care about, is here.”
She began to walk again, heading in the direction of her father’s grave

Dev simplay followed her Keran had warned him this would be difficult. he stepped lightly and watched her this was the only way he knew how to do this. just watch and wait he did not attempt to not make himself known he just watched her.
"I am sorry that you feel that way but our leader wants me to talk with you about this..." he said lightly continuing behind her almost like a dog. "I do as my leader asks so i will follow you untill you talk with me....I am sorry if that causes you problems" he bowed shortly to her. he was torn between her liking him and getting his job done like he was told.

Joey listened to what he had to say. She simply went on her knees and slightly ignored the man for a few moments as she looked up to the sky letting it express itself for her. Not even a million drops would help her heal the regret of not being able to do anything, no matter her age, she just couldn’t help but think about what would of have happened if she would have fully listened to her father more of the time.
As she was there she looked back down at the grave stone and turned and looked at her mothers. “Together forever” Is what it read on both of their stones. After a few more moments of silence, as if on queue, the rain lightened up and she rose from the ground to turn back to the stranger.
“Ok… You have my attention, and I’m warning you right now…. Don’t take me lightly…”
She headed back towards the fence to look over the village again so that she would be able to focus a bit more.

"Ahh! oh thank you I will take you to my leader..." he said following her with a bow. he seemed so eager to please this leader of his, but that was due to the fact that she saved him she had saved him from a life of servitude unlike most of his race he had never wanted to be a slave to anyone. he pulled at his collar slightly then raised a hand suddenly a large portal like a cage door made from fire. the gate slowly swung open showing blackness behind it. Dev bowed lightly and motioned for her to go through.
"You first...dont worry the portal wont hurt you" he said kindly smiling at her as he messed with the collar around his neck.

“What the hell?!” She yelled at him when she turned around “ARE YOU MENTAL?!! YOU WANTED TO TALK TO ME?! … .THIS ISN’T TALKING!” Joey’s voice only got louder. She couldn’t believe herself… that’s when the whole ‘never talk to strangers’ popped in her head.
She looked at the man and knew that he wasn’t around here but how did he conjure up the fire… ‘he’s one of me’ she thought. She took a step back and got herself in a stance. It didn’t take her long to add to her shouting – “YOU WANT ME TO COME… You’ll need to FORCE me!”

"Oh dear..." He said lightly as he still stood infront of her by his portal. he sighed and thoght slightly. he had two choices one was to fail his mission witch he never wanted to do he owed so much to there leader. the second was to do as she said and force her to go with him however that was not the jumpers ways. they always asked and if the person said no the left it at that, why did she suddenly go ballistic on him.
"Gomen but my leader wants to talk with you...I must have forgotten to tell you that..." he said running a hand through his hair. he was an odd man for the most part. "I know that this seems sudden...but i swear you wont be hurt..." he frowned as he looked at his own portal.

Joey looked at him and then back at the portal. She knew her powers weren’t very manageable right at this point in time, but she felt that she would have a fighting chance. Looking back at the stranger, she smirked a bit and then brought her full attention back to the portal. A shed of a flame sparked in her eye as she attempted to put the portal on fire, although it seemed that every time she tried it would put her fire out.
She looked back at him and bluntly asked… “What is that? You just expect me to walk through it? I’ve never heard and or seen anything like this before… Are you a Maniac… oh right…” it wasn’t until then, when she saw him mess with his collar that she noticed it to it’s full potential. She tilted her head a bit and then had a thought go through her head as her face seemed to relax a bit. She almost seemed relieved as she thought that… maybe he wasn’t lying.
Before she would do anything, she would wait for an answer. Her face returned to be stern as she looked back into the stranger’s eyes.
