Shutters, smacking the window in the night by a heavy wind. The rain pelting the window as the thunder flashed it was a long night. A girl, resting on a mattress dressed in a white gown, face painted up with makeup, breathing softly. Hair brushed back in her usual twin tails, black shoes at the foot of the bed. The cabin was quaint lit up by small white candles. Dust over the fireplace and window sills, as it was untouched for a period of time. The door opening and closing as a figure loomed, watching the girl, checking on her sleeping figure. The girls head rolled to the side, with a soft groan escaping her light pink lips. The girl was known, at least back then. REM sleep made her stir as she watched the events play on repeat in her head.

The day everything went down, she was walking with an old friend, laughing at the festival they had put on as a city. Wandering around in a long blue shimmering dress, with a sea-foam green accent at the bottom. Many from all around came to visit Seattle in the old days. Godfather Tony Castelli, Furd, Klejnot, Godfather Jasmine, and Gabriel, the leaders of Seattle at that time. It was wonderful, a warm night, bight and sunny during the day. Shame it ended tragic, the end of the wonderful Seattle crews. Blood had been shed through the streets running it red. Tony Castelli, Gabriel, Furd: She had heard that Jasmine had held out as long as she could to fight for the city they loved. The funerals were visited from other families over the sister cities and company. She remembered the pain, the white-hot pain of a bullet piercing her flesh into her chest. It was a pain but she was retrieved, brought to the end of the city. Klejnot was patched up, kept hidden for months. She was watched over, dressed for her funeral in case she never made it. It was a shock that she pulled through, but she feared waking up to the world missing what she had grown to know.

Klejnot opened her blue eyes, looking at the hazy ceiling, she rolled off the mattress. Slowly getting to her feet, she swayed trying to stabilize herself as she looked around, moving over to the window she put her hand to the glass, looking at the reflection of her own face. She could hardly recognize her face with the makeup, shaking her head she turned digging through a drawer she found her old uniform. Grabbing a needle she patched the hole in the chest and got dressed. Wearing a sailor's fitted coat, her skirt, and her hat, she washed the makeup off and let out a sigh. She needed sun, more then she could imagine. She sat on the bed watching the room darken as the candles burned out one by one. 
Morning came, the grass dewy as she got up stretching she made her way out the door and walked to the main, center of Seattle. Knowing not many would take kindly to her appearance in the streets. She walked, reaching there by noon, she stopped in front of the old Headquarters of the old families being sure to place flowers at the grounds for all of the fallen, she had respect.

The streets were quiet, though she could see people hiding, watching her as she stood in the streets. Hearing the whispers of "Is she the girl who died and went missing?" "She is dead?" "How is she moving?" She went and turned down the walkway, looking for a way out of the voices not wanting to deal with the words of those who knew nothing of the hell Seattle went through months before. How many have done so since? Who all has been set there and fell? She gave a small smile knowing that the family she once knew was gone. Atlantis had fallen again, her hand brushed through her hair with a shake she made sure to grab a few purses before looking for flights out of Seattle. Time for a new start, she needed some new air to breathe. Her next flight was to Los Angeles to look for employment, or to find where she belongs.

Raki being raki, walkin around being her old friend, he had hear klejnot finally awoken from her deepest darkest slumber, he wasn't going to let her walk alone, so he set out into the streets to look for her, as he looked around, he could see the weirdos staring at him, as if he was walking in the right direction, felt something grab him, stopping him, he could tell it was a child like hand, he looked down as he gave a saddened dull look. 

"Yes little boy...what can I do for you?" Raki spoke softly, in a deep voice. 

"Mr. you shouldn't go that way...they say that ghost like girl was down there...they say she is dangerous...please sir...if you do go down there...just take it easy...she might kill you." the boy said, as Raki winked, he smiled, chuckling.

"Little one...she is alright, to me she is harmless, but if she sees someone else that she doesnt recognize, it might be worse for you guys." He said, as he patted the boy's head, and walked off away from the boy.

Raki could hear the whisperes, he sighed, it was drama, which was like food for the talkers, when they had nothing to do, people always had somethign to say, it is what they did, or what they do. As he continued to walk towards where he might find her, the whisperes got louder, cursing her, or the spot she had come from, he sighed, as he pushed through the crowds looking for her. Then suddenly he say, she had a what looked to be like a saddened look on her face, she must have been in her thoughts again. 

As he ducked and weaved through the crowds, making his way towards her, he could see how they seemed to throw holy water at her, curse her, and threw garlic at her, he raised a brow, annoyed at the idiocy, he reached her, finaly, after what seemed of forever, as he reached her, his cold calm touched her warm face, like it always did, he smiled. 

"Klejnot...it's me......one of your old friends...I hope you can remember me... otherwise I will feel really stupid for coming up to you ." he gave a soft chuckle. 

He picked her up as he would normally and gave her a soft hug, letting her know she wasn't alone, for he would do anything for those who always had his back, and klejnot was one of them, just as raki would do the same for her, and he hoped she knew that. He could tell her eyes were kind of far off, but he hoped she could at least see him a little, he had hoped she hadn't gone insane just as everyone left her, he noticed he was the only one always coming for her, intimes when she needed him most, he was there.

he wore his hair just down, it was curly and a bit whispy, it was out of it's braids, he smiled softly, as he kissed her cheek, and then set her down, he moved his hair out of his face, and pulled her hand gently taking her to a bench where they had met a while back...a long time ago, he then let her collet her thoughts, as he stared up at the moon .

She stared off into space, watching the sun set, her flight was scheduled for the next day. She could not tell her emotions were down showing her frown. Klejnot let out a small sigh as she walked the block, brushing back her bangs, her eyes were darkened with sadness. The words of being a ghost, a monster, she never wanted this. Why did she want to come back to her old life? What good would that do? No she could not throw away her chance.

She could smell the ash still, the blood, hearing the screams of that night. She could not focus on what was around her. Looking at the ticket for her flight she felt empty, wonder what was coming next. Those who spoke kept her standing not wanting to look at anyone as she kept to herself. She raised her head slightly at the familiar voice. "Raki?..." She whispered, unsure of herself as she noticed his smile, she felt the corners of her lips twitch before she was lifted off the ground into a soft hug. She wrapped her arms around him her face pressing into his shoulder he was a good friend indeed. The sun was easing down the horizon ending the day and engulfing the sky into a peaceful night. 

Klejnot closed her eyes calming down in the hold she was in by her dear old friend. Until she was set back onto her feet, afraid to open her eyes to see herself alone she shook it off and opened her eyes slowly. There he was, standing before here with his long hair staring at her brushing his hair from his face, a kiss tender on her cheek to let her know she was not going crazy. She was pulled to the bench and sitting down next to him she looked at the people walking, staring and whispering. 

Yes, she herself was lost due to the words she heard, wondering if she was really alive or just another spec of a soul wandering limbo. It took a few hours before she looked at Raki, seeing him stare at the sun she spoke softly. "This is not a dream.... huh Raki?" She leaned into his side resting her forehead on his shoulder, Seattle was her old home, so what can she do. "Think it is right to go back to this life?" She closed her eyes her fingers gripping the bottom of his shirt, just to be sure he did not leave so suddenly, they were watched.

"Klej...yeah....I am glad I came and found you....I have been looking for you...for a long time...rumor had it you were killed with the rest of them..but I couldn't believe it...I always tend to dodge and duck my way through time...and I don't seem to be getting any older...when I saw what you went through by yourself...I tried to stay near you at that time...but we kept getting pulled in different directions...so much blood, enough for me to drown in it, but it wasnt the type of blood I wanted." He stated, his voice soft, of a sadness that made him seem hollow more than usual.

He looked down at her, as she were to be grabbing onto his sleeve, he pulled her close, using his other arm to real her in, he sighed, seeing her as if she had gone nuts, felt saddned for her, "And klej....I don't plan on going anywhere this time...this time I plan I getting up there to the top, and I am bringing you with me...I can't let you rot at the bottom...I will not leave you like everyone else did...no matter how many times I have been shot down, or stopped..I will aways come and find you...that much I can promise you, I will make it up there one of these days....that much is for certain,and klej I am very determined." He said, giving her a wicked grin, showing part of his fang.

He patted her head, as he looked up at the now setting sun, it made him happy to know that he had finally found her her, "Klej will you do me the honor of following me all the way up to the top? because I won't take no for answer girly....I don't what I have to do to prove you arent alone, I will shout it at the tops of the mountains, I will go to the roof tops and shout it forcing people to listen...who cares if the world is against you, you have to use that klej, for those who play you...play them right back, for those who hate you...don't even give them a second thought, they aren't worth it, you want revenge just as much as I do, I lost a lot that day as well...remember klej, you told me this life is what you make of it, you also told me that we have potentiel to take over, to lets do it..let's change it, if you feel those in power aren't doing what they said they are doing, then let's change that..lets do things no one has ever done before, let's make ourselves a legend, klej I believe in you,I believe in all of those who have heart but can still put their best foot forward, I want to make up for an old leader of mine, that could have been great, that made me who I am today." He said, speaking of motivation, hoping to look like an idol in her eyes.

Raki had been through a lot over the years, but he wasn't going to let that stop him and take over his life, he was gonna make it better, and greater, he moved her hair out of her face, and smiled." Klej what do you say...lets go together...and become something greater than ourselves...and lets show all these big shots, that we arent a joke, that we can do it..and nothing can stop us." He said, as he smiled, looking back down at her, giving her a motivational wicked grin, as he patted her head.
