Welcome to Gaia! ::

Akira breathed in fresh air for the first time in the hour she spent in the 'live lady's' resturaunt. The cool air was nice and it caressed her cheeks tenderly. She was tired of seeing all the bright lights and breathing in the toxic hazy air. She sadly glanced in her purse..Only three measly dollars left. Dang cheep paying job bosses. She began to walk into the park whick was...admittingly a longer way to her building, but the moon was so full. She smiled in a moment of bliss, twirling and enjoying herself for a moment. She sang a song from her memories, a sweet light melody which some pople would think creepy in the middle of the night but she didn't care.

(this is the song she is singing)

Akira paused, stopping her spinning for a moment when she heard a small voice. Mother? Was a little child lost out here in the woods? She turned to see what looked like a boy sitting in the sand box. She walked from the dark shadows she was dancing into the moonlight to get a better look at the boy. Most kids thougt she was a freak, but it sounded like this boy was lost. Wierd...the moonlight made his skin glow different colors. "Are you okay, little one? Did you lose your mother while playing in the park today?" She asked, offering her hand to the strange boy.
(Akira's picture is in my sig.)

He wasn't a little boy...he was...a teenager! Wow...he was as tall as her....with long black hair. Its a good thing she didn't mistake him for a girl either.Akira stared...not meaning to be rude...But his skin was two diffrent colors. She looked at where his right arm and the skin color changed. Akira panicked. She placed her hand on where the arm connected to the rest of the body. "What happened...are you okay? You poor thing..." She said before wrapping her arms around the boy trying to comfert Him somehow. Imagion what this boy had been through. Akira snapped back to reality. She was hugging a boy....whome she did not know..in the park at night. She pushed away lightly and scratched the back of her head in emberressment. "Sorry...Its probobly none of my buisness....And...I guess...I should be on my way...Didn't mean to bother you....eheheh....he..." She felt kinda stupid. This boy probobly thought she was nuts. She turned to leave the way she came.

She heard him laugh....It was a happy kind of laugh...not an oh-man-your-nuts kinda laugh...he was just...laughing. He had a cute smile, but what kind of person had two diffrent types of skin? But if he had always been like that .....then....he was okay. "Whats your name? I'm Akira....So you don't have to ask. Oh, Do you live around here?" She gave a small smile to the red cheeked and stange boy.Why was she asking all these queations. She hit her palm lightly to her forhead and apoligused. "Sorry...didn't mean to be nosy...You don't have to tell me" Maby it wasn't too late for this kid to think she was nuts.

"Wrath....what an unusual name.... The second most unusual name I've heard tonight...Oh...but I uh..." She started to panic, hoping she wasn't insulting him. "I-I like it... Honest....Huh? You don't live anywhere? How? You must have a home..." This boy was full of mysteries, that was certian. Now he wanted to give her something? Maby this guy didn't think she was loony. " Give me something? Like a gift? Really? Oh..sure..." She accepted it for 2 reasons. 1. Its been 10 years sience she has ever recieved a gift. 2. it would be rude to refuse a gift and 3... Okay maby three...3 she had never recieved a gift brom a boy that wasn't her family....or so...cute.

Akira's heart lept as she watched him perform alchemy. She had never met another alchemist before...except her brother..he was learning it when he dissapeared. She gazed at the beautiful glass butterfly. She took it with a grin on her face and admired it. "I've never met another alchemist before....wow...this is so cool. Thank you! I have a gift for you too...if you'd like it. Just come with me, mk? And don't worry...you won't not have a home for long." She said, her cheerfulness leeking into her voice. She took his hand and led him to the building. "Watch your step...Don't step on a rat...they hate that." She led him up a ramp she made which was on every other floor, so you didn't have to walk up so many stairs. Its not like she could take the elivator. She was dark...she was not suicidel. Finally they made it to the thirteenth floor. She offered for him to sit on her bed, which was the only thing comfertable you could sit on, unless you liked sitting on hard sharp rock and plaster. In her room there was a working bathroom, a small table with a worn pillow for meal time, her bed and the hole in the wall, which was covered slitly by a black curtian. She rummaged through her box of things she had collected and treasured over the years, trying to locate the object she was seeking.She could use alchemy to pop up a gift..but she wanted to give him something from the heart.

Akira happily walked over to wrath with her gift in hand. She showed it to him. It was a dog collar she had made when she was young. It was her first alchemy she had ever done and she was proud of it. She showed him how to put it on and off, then placed it around his neck a little loose. "There....I hope it fits right...Thats my first ever alchemy practice. I want you to have it, because I want you to. No returns, no i.o.you's or anything, mk?" She smiled and pulled out a spare matress out of the broken closet. She placed it in the room that was connected to hers on the right. There was no door, so she reassured him "You can ahnd a curtian here for privacy if you'd like. And I can get you some sheets...the ones I have are stale and smelly. This is your home now...k? I haven't had company here ever...wow...your my first guest...I should make something for you to eat...Are you hungry?" She asked, looking over the mini fridge.
