Xiot realized she was being talked to, and looked up from the ground as if she were never looking there in the first place. She started to fumble with her fingers and the accessories she wore on her wrists.
"Well, yeah. All Hosts can, cant they? I mean, you did a while ago." She pointed out, and shot a quick glance at Tox, who was noting the other Shadow's dislike of them. She felt the pressence of another pair, just like before, but it was gone in a few seconds. Maybe that was what Jet was glancing at? The Shadow simply turned her head rudely, but not before giving him the same look he might have been giving them. Xiot sighed.
"And you, um, Jet, you have a power that Hosts and Humans dont, right? Like, an element or something? That's what Tox has,"

"Yes I do-"
"So I'm not the only one? Others can do what I can do?" Lunamarie was astonished. Jet had always hidden her from everybody, never letting her be who she truly was. The glamorous life of stardom had eliminated all thoughts of her true nature.
"Please, don't put thoughts in her head." Jet's eyes were wide with panic. "She's safe from all this. She doesn't have to be envolved.
"But I want to be. Let me help, Jet." Lunamarie stepped closer, holding out her hand to the other Shadow, "As you probably know already, my name is Lunamarie Sinclair. This is my shadow, Jet. Just Jet."
Despite Lunamarie's persistence, her Shadow kept a hand on her shoulder, ready to throw her out of the way of any surprise attacks.

The Host somehow found the sequence of short events amusing, and let out a small giggle. The Shadow, on the other hand, didnt find it funny at all. She just shook her head.
"Yeah, I know who you are! Ive heard some of your music, too!" Xiot mused, Tox shaking her head and muttering something under her breath.
"Jet, I know it can be difficult to let your Host in on things such as battles and such, I was the same way. But you're not going to be a very powerful pair when the time is needed if you dont let her help you and be involved. You should at least give her a chance, is all Im sayin'." The Shadow said seriously to the other. From behind Tox, Xiot gave a small nod in agreement to Tox's words.

"Don't patronize me. My Host is mine to protect." Jet pulled Lunamarie back and stepped in front of her again.
Her untouched hand fell back to her side, though she wasn't insulted at all. She was excited to meet others just like her. And they had heard her songs!
"Let's show them kindness, Jet." Her voice was excited and blissful. Normaly, Jet would be pleased to see his Host so happy, but not under these circumstances.
"We can't. It's just not the way things are done. It's impossible."
"Impossible? Has anyone ever tried doing things differently?" Meeting in the middle, she stood by her Shadow's side. "Besides, money isn't an issue. We can get you a hotel for the night. Food is no problem at all either." She spread her arms out wide in a welcoming gesture.

"They're becoming friends Richter," said leah mildly amused.
"I can see that," he said disgust, "This can work out for either better or for worse when it comes down to our showing ourselves."
"Meaning, if we can convince one, we can convince the other....but if we can convince niether, we'd have to force them into compliance?"
"Correct," replied Richter, now looking at leah intently. "Are you ready for the possiblity of using force?"
"It's been a while, but I'm pretty sure I can still hold my own," she said winking.
"Very well, let us watch a bit more before we show ourselves."
"Understood."
The two looked back toward the other pairs, trying to make out the unknown future.

What a contradicting pair... Tox thought. Xiot smiled and nodded, lacing her fingers together and holding them to her chest as if she was going to pray.
"You're so nice!!" She said happily, almost bouncing with joy. Tox nodded. "Ive always thought that most celeberties were snobby and condenscending! No offense to you, of course-"
"Yeah, thanks. Really, I mean it." Tox cut her Host off, feeling as though she was about to start rambling about nothing if she went on.

"All this lovey-dovey stuff is making me sick," said Richter annoyed.
"Aww, I think it's kinda cute," said Leah smiling.
"Just be ready," he replied curtly.

"It's my pleasure!" Lunamarie was elated.
Jet didn't relax at all. His face was set in stone, emotionless and neutral. The conflict between his own interests and the desires of his treasured Host had rendered him into a gray area.
While Jet contemplated their abstract situation, Lunamarie continued spilling her joy to everyone.
"Sanguine Hotel is the most luxurious place on this side of the country! Have you ever eaten lobster? Oh, you'll love it!" As they tromped through the forest back to the town, Lunamarie lavished them with conversation, too happy to realize she was talking too much.
The difference between Host and Shadow was staggering. Yet they fit together like puzzle pieces. A celebrity and a guard dog.

[Sorry I havent posted yet today. My Internet wasnt working at all until now.]
As the two pairs walked back into town, Xiot was very interested in everything Lunamarie had to say. Tox just sat back and listened in and out to what she had to say. She was so busy thinking about what they were going to do after this. It seemed like Jet was on quite an edge, so things may not stay so wonderful if this went on. Then again, what would become of Xiot and Tox if they left? Oh well, screw it. Tox thought. She shook her head and dismissed the thoughts as they were entering the town.

The two had postponed appearing. The Sanguine Hotel would be a perfect place to confront the pairs, they would have more of a chance that the two would listen when confronted with humans in the vicinity.
"Lets leave them for now," said Richter, "We can stop them at the hotel, now that we know what they look like."
"Ok," said leah in reply.
The two moved quickly from the other pairs to cut them off at the hotel.

"I'm sorry about this..." Lunamarie hung her head in mock shame, "I guess the press blew my cover."
They were walking down a deserted alley behind the hotel. Hordes of screaming fans had apparently been tipped off as to where she was staying.
Smirking, Jet pulled out a tarnished old key and opened a concealed door that had been built into the brick wall. It looked like it led to a loading bay, which in turn led to a huge kitchen.
"I stay here a lot, so the owner was nice enough to give me a key to the back door."
Jet butt in with a sardonic comment, "You're a promotion to him. Just advertisement."
"Oh, Jet, shut it." She turned her vibrant smile to her guest pair, "So, what was your hometown like? Why did you leave?"

"Ok, when we decided to cut them off at the hotel, I didn't expect a wild goose chase. They're signatures are coming from the kitchen now," said Richter annoyed. "We're going to make our presence known tonight, after all they may not think so, but they're in our turf.
"Ok, lets just disguise ourselves and ambush them in the kitchen, then they'll have to listen."
"Good idea, lets go..."

Xiot giggled at all of the rioting fans as the two pairs headed for safety. Tox stayed silent the whole time, until they reached the kitchen. Xiot became shy when their hometown was mentioned, so her Shadow took over from there. "Our town was...small, nice...and for the most part peaceful. But for the first time in a long while, there was a murder and, well..." She hesitated with her answer, not really wanting to be so blunt. "Well, I guess you could say that Xiot and I had something to do with the murder..." Tox finished nervously. She didnt want to be reported for a murder. She knew Xiot would never last in a jail cell.
[[Sorry for lack of postage. Ive been quite busy...]]

(It's totally cool. I've been gone for a while too.)
"So what?" Lunamarie ran her fingers through her platinum blonde hair. "People die. Some die sooner than others. Some die by another's hand, and some die just because they want to. You shouldn't run from a natural occurence. You'll never stop running." Though the topic was grim, she said it with flourishing optimism and a certain sunniness.
A bark of laughter was inspired out of Jet, "Such a strong statement from a girl whose lived behind the red curtains her whole life."
"You were there every step of the way, hiding just a little bit farther behind those curtains."
Jet stayed silent after that.
Lunamarie grinned slyly and turned her attention back to the intriguing new pair, "People die and that's just it. I won't look at you differently for something I don't care about."
Dinner must have just got underway, for the sound of chopping and boiling was rising to a cacophony.
