RuuZura managed to stop laughing enough to answer him. "Aww.. she left.. We were just about to tell her that CheriChur said that her ears tasted like CHICKEN-Zura!" She said, pointing at her sister, who began laughing more. "Ah.. would you like some cake? We have some of the best that can be found anywhere, or so some of our customers have said-Zura" RuuZura said. She smiled, beginning to walk towards the front of the Cafe. "Right this way-Zura"

He giggled, and then followed in RuuZura. He looked around the place, noting the decorations and how everything was mostly the same color. He looked at the items in display, grinning with entertainment.

RuuZura kept her smile on her face, noticing that he enjoyed the display case. "You can choose anything you'd like.." She said, trailing off. "Oh, I haven't caught your name-Zura.What is it-Zura?" She asked politley, turning around and facing him. Meanwhile, CheriChur rummaged lightly through the rose garden. " I wish she hadn't left.. she might've known somthing about it.." She thought to herself, gently nudging the black and purple roses aside, revealing a small black rose with a dark magenta stem, and a purple ghostly aura glowed around the closed petals. It's leaves were almost in the shape of a bat's wings. She carefully picked it up, cupping it in her hands, looking at it carefully. " Elune... Elruna.. I wonder if this has anything to do with that goddess she mentioned.. I wonder why that old lady who revived me gave me it.. She called it Elruna's Rose.. And then she left.. it's so confusing" She thought before standing up, heading inside the cafe, still holding the strange rose. (Alruna, Elruna. One letter off from the real name I'll link a picture to it once I draw it er somthing.)

Elunerose kept on running towards the forest. She stopped to a halt when she had heard a large splash in the distance. "Could it be?..." She asked herself as she shook her head slightly. She hissed lowly, taking form into a cat. This cat form wasn't like any other cat out there, her ears were still long, the fur a purplish color. Strange markings could be found upon her shoulder's. Her eyes glowed yellow, yet her pupils were purple as well. She began to move quietly through the forest as she stepped ever so slightly upon little shrubs, leaves, plus twigs. Growling lowly, she had heard the splash again. It echoed through the forest eerily. She kept on going, until she had seen a small lake in front of her very eyes. It reminded her of the moonwell's that were back at her home land. A blue aurora mist came from the surface.
She quietly made her way over to it, then gasped when she recognized the large shape within the waters. She shape-shifted back into her original form, a smile playing across her lips. "Awaken, Zatkari...thou has been down there for far too long." She had not known where the previous splashes came from, yet she was happy to see one of the Zatkari still alive. She backed up a bit when bubbles formed at the surface of the water to give this massive creature some room to come out. Gasping when she had seen the head pop out of the water first, she cheered at the Zatkari, seeing it was one of the last of the water Zatkari. The water Zatkari type could not talk, but they would understand on what is said to them.
She hailed the Zatkari as it finally got out of the lake, after stretching out its wings. She walked over to it now, smiling brightly, "Catiluye...A pleasant surprise!" She exclaimed while patting the Zatkari's nose. The Zatkari bowed down to her, she merely shook her head. "Nay Catiluye, tis' not needed old friend." She giggled feeling the Zatkari's wet nose nudge her shoulder playfully. "Ah, a good day to have re-met thee...Aye?" She asked him while brushing her finger nails lightly over his light blue scales. Yes this Zatkari is a male...One of the very few in fact. She cheered at him once again, then laughed when he stood up on his two hind legs roaring proudly to be alive plus doing very well for his health. She quieted him down a bit, "Shh my friend, other's will hear thee..." She smiled when Catiluye lied down before her, "A rest sounds good...Even thou hast been sleeping for so long..." She said while crawling beneath his left wing.
She snuggled up against the wet scales, she didn't care they were wet only that this Zatkari was alive and doing well. Within a few minutes she fell asleep letting the Emerald Dream take her away to deep slumber, plus pleasant dreams.

Railek looked up at the girls. "Railek." he replied quietly, and picked out a random cake in the display.
He sat with them and ate the cake when it was given to him. He cherished its flavor, and smiled and kicked his legs. After he finished, he returned the plate to them, and even paid for it. He walked outside, and looked around. He wanted to find that woman. He turned to the girls and waved. "I'll be back, promise." He then walked into the forest, disappearing as soon as he hit the first bit of shade.
He went at lightning fast speed, and came to a fast stop over a lake. He stopped himself, and then transported down to an area nearby where she was. He blinked, finding her rather easily, but seeing her with another creature. Both were well asleep, and so he debated on not waking them up. He jumped into a tree and sat there, waiting patiently.

Elunerose slept soundly for a good fifteen minutes or so. She awoke, stretching out, then cracked her neck since it was stiff. "Catiluye awaken old friend...We've slept for a while now." She noted the sun now at dusk, now that the tree tops were no longer lighten up by the sun's rays. She nudged the Zatkari gently, then crawled out from beneath its wings. Catiluye had awoken, gently shaking its body, then stood up upon his feet to dig his claws into the ground. She laughed at him while he yawned. "As the human race say, A dragon you are indeed!" She laughed once more, then stopped when she sensed another person nearby. "Anyone there?..." She asked, looking about the area carefully. "Thou hiding from thy Zatkari? Nothing to be afraid of...Aye, he maybe massive...but tis' no harm." She said placing the Staff upon the ground, plus The book of The Dead.
She grabbed one of Catiluye's claws, then place it firmly over The Book of The Dead. "Thou shalt protect this book while thee bathes, aye?" She asked him, then smirked slightly seeing the Zatkari nod to her. She removed her garments, except for a scared necklace her mother once had given her when she was first born. She jumped into the lake, then resurfaced to only splash water at Catiluye. "Hmhm, thou loves water, what does it matter?" She joked. The necklace she wore glowed brightly, "Ahh...So it tis' part of the ancient moonwell... Aye..." She whispered to herself, while wetting her hair a bit to get any dirt or anything out of it.

RuuZura smiled when she heard him say he'd be back. "Well, he's nice-Zura" RuuZura said, taking the dish into the kitchen and setting it in the sink. When she came back out, she then noticed CheriChur had Elruna's rose in the palm of her hand. "Oh..Zura.." She mumbled, walking back over to her sister. "... That lady said somthing about a goddess named Elune. When I heard it, It sounded relevant to Elruna... and I was hoping that lady maybe knew somthing about it." CheriChur said, sliding her finger gently down the stem of the rose. "C'mon, we'll talk about this later. We have customers"
After she watched several customers came and went, CheriChur became more and more anxious to ask the lady who had come if she knew anything about it. Around dusk, RuuZura had came back from the library with atleast 2 or three books and an old wooden case that had many designs engraved into it. She shut the door behind her, set the books and case down, and put the "Closed" Sign up, even though the lights were still lit. "I looked up Elruna at the library, and I got only these two-Zura" RuuZura said, dragging her sister over to the books. The covers were engraved with purple and dark magenta silk, and several designs with roses and small bats. "And the case I bought at the antique shop on the far end of town. Somehow, I think it also has somthing to do with it-Zura"
Suddenly the case tipped over, then rumbled around the table. The girls stood back, handing hands against eachother and looking at the case worridly. The lock broke, letting the case open. Puffs of dust came out, and then a little creature crawled out. "AUGH! FRESH AIR! Hellejuah! 2 years in a dust filled case with a feild guide in it.. And dust mites! Oh the dust mites! My hair was always a mess cause of em'!" The small creature said with a feminine voice. It had black devil horns with Short dark-magenta hair. It also had A white and fluffy collar with bat wings sprouting out of the back. A spiky little tail came out of it's Black bathing-suit looking dress. It's skin was purple, which was obviously odd, same as the rest. It stood up like a human on the table, even though it was only about 4 or 5 inches tall, streching out before turning to the girls who were holding the rose. The creature frowned. "You.. have... Elruna's rose..?" It asked quietly, giving off the impression that it was a girl. The twins nodded, staring at the little creature. It began to pace in circles on the table, counting her fingers with her other hand. "This isn't good... tsk tsk, nono.. this is not good at all.." She mumbled to herself. She stopped and turned to the girls again, who had let go of eachother and RuuZura holding the rose. "Do you know what that IS, missy?" She said, putting her hands on her hips. "...Elruna's.. rose..?" "YES! But it's supposed to be Alruna's! That specific ONE rose was altered from it's original form! So people could take power from it! The less power, the less chances it will ever evolve. And if too much of one certain element goes into it, it won't be good at all." She yelled, bending over and glaring at RuuZura. "Elruna's rose was altered from an average Alruna's rose so that people could use it's power for their own. It's wanted by so many people, they'll kill for- ehHEY!" She said before being picked up by the collar by CheriChur, who was examining the lady-like creature as it waved around in her fingers. "Alruna, Elruna, Elune. Two of those names sound alike with the exception of two letter. Elruna and Eluna. The goddess Elune, does she have anything to do with this.. 'Altaring' of this Alruna's rose?" CheriChur asked sternly. She hung silent in CheriChur's grasp, her eyes glancing down with a blank face. "Aye.. that.. I don't know." She answered. CheriChur looked at RuuZura. "We have to ask that lady. She probobly knows everything about that 'Elune' she mentioned" She said. RuuZura nodded her head lightly with a solemn look on her face.

He was glad to find that he didn't have to wait for very long. He waited a few moments longer, watching her go into the water. Then he slid down onto the ground, and approached the dragon quietly. It seemed to lift its head and look at him cautiously, but once Railek was close and the creature seemed to realize he was perfectly innocent, Railek received a hard nudge to his chest. He grunted and chuckled, stroking the beast's muzzle affectionately.

Elunerose looked back over her shoulder to find that charming man she had ran into again at that strange building. "What tis' thou doing here?" She asked him, hoping she didn't startle him. She beckoned him over to the lake, "Come here, can thee grab thy garments for thou?" She asked him, laughing softly. "Twas just a quick bathe for thee..." She whispered, turning her attention to Catiluye who seemed distracted by the man. She swam over to the bank, then got out. "Thy garments are near Catiluye's claws." She said, pointing to the massive creature's claws.
Her necklace glowed even more brightly than before. It was a small delicate rose made out of the finest jewel in all of her Ancient home land. She knew what that meant...Someone had found the one rose that was plucked from the Goddesses chamber's over a few centuries ago. The tale was new and old, being passed down to of the simplistic generation. She laughed at the thought, then smiled at the man, "Thy name is Elunerose...Named after thy goddess Elune...Ye can just call thee Elune if ye wish. It's much more simple." She giggled.

"We better hurry and find her. It can get pretty dangerous outside at night" RuuZura said, sliding the rose in a place where no one could see. "I'll bring the creature thing. She could help explain, I just know it." CheriChur said, picking up the little creature-girl thing that had come out of the case and putting her on her shoulder. The bat-like lady thing kicked it's legs out, enjoying the space and fresh cold air as they stepped outside. "Ah, does it feel good to breathe clean, fresh, and cool air..." She sighed, sighing with delight.
The trio walked down the long dirt road path until they got to a row of three trees on each side. RuuZura stepped into the middle, clasping her hands together with the rose. "Shadows who see dark and day, shadows who see rain and sun, tell me what you have seen that has come from our way-Zura" She whispired, looking with her peircing white eyes at the shadows. They moved into the shape of fairies and sprites, circling around her. They told her much, and then she asked a hooded elven lady. "Forest, to the forest!" They chanted with fun. "Now dance with us, Zura, dance with us!" They took control of her body, making her almost into a human puppet. They made her dance this way and that in graceful steps, twirling and dancing about without her control. After a few minutes more, they let her go. "Bye ZuraZura! See you again, ZuraZura!"The sprites chanted as they turned back into the shadows of the six trees. CheriChur smiled as always, but the bat-lady was amazed. "You can speak to shadows and feel their touch, too! Lemme kcatch up here! Your undead. You can speak to shadows and feel their touch. AND you have Elruna's rose?" She gawked, her jaw hanging open. RuuZura nodded, looking at her with a strange face. Before she could say more, CheriChur interupted. "Well, to the forest we go, I guess" And after that, they were silent on the trail to and through the forest.
