the spirit within

[saintclaire]

*damion in the woods sits in a darkened cave. only candle light can be seen from a distance. damion sits in deep thaught within the cirlce of candles waiting....*

[Raedia Saint Claire]

*From a distance watching the small lights glimmer in the cave. Wondering what this being is doing. Raedia moves in closer, but hides to not be seen.*

"I wonder what's going on. I've never seen this happen around here before."

*She ducks behind a large rock and ponders, watches, and waits.*

[saintclaire]

*damion doesnt flich or moves he sits there. he can feel a presence there looks around slowly with his eyes until he smells the scent of a perfume and pinpoints the person.*

I can see you behind the rock. what do you want?

[Raedia Saint Claire]

*She stands up after being recognized.*

"I live just over the hill and I felt something different so I decided to see what was happening. I'm sorry if I have disturbed you, but you are on private property."

*Raedia moves closer to the cave. Slowly stepping one foot at a time.*

[saintclaire]

*damion looks up at her*

This....this is my home. the world is my home. i enter any part of it. right now my dear YOU are trespassing into my home.

[Raedia Saint Claire]

*She looks at him with a smile.*

"Not according to my deed on this land. What's your name sir?"

[saintclaire]

*damion smirks and stands up brushing the dirt from his jacket he walks towards the woman and bows*

my name is damion...damion saint claire. may i ask your name?

[Raedia Saint Claire]

*She smiles and blushes because she's never had any man bow to her before. She returns his bow with a curtsey.*

"My name is Raedia. Raedia...."

*She trails off with the last name unsure of whether she should mention it or not.*

[saintclaire]

*damion smiles*

i dont mean to intrude on your property raedia. i was just passing through. i like the dark and this cave seemed perfect. would you like me to leave?

[Raedia Saint Claire]

*She smiles at Damion.*

"No you may stay. If you don't want to stay out in the cold come to my cabin. You can stay on my pull out couch. It's better shelter then this cave."

*She giggles with delight.*

[saintclaire]

*damion points to the darkness behind him*

i love the dark. thank you for the offer but i think ill pass.

[Raedia Saint Claire]

*Raedia flips her long, wavy, brunette hair over her shoulder.*

"Okay well if you'd like to wash up or anything come knock on the door. I have food, water, and a nice shower with hot water. Heh. That's been awhile since I could actually say that. Anyway feel free to show up anytime."

*She turns to walk back toward her home leaving Damion behind her. She turns her head towards him and waves as she walks on.*

[saintclaire]

damion contemplates to himself for a minute as the woman closes the door to the cabin...

its been a long time.

*he blows out the candles in the cave and walks towards the cabin. hoping he wouldnt be rude by walking in. he walks in through the kitchen and see's raedia sitting at the kitchen table

[Raedia Saint Claire]

*Sitting at the kitchen table reading yesterday's newspaper. Already changed into her red silk night gown. Raedia looks up and sees Damion walk in.*

"I had a feeling you weren't the knocking type. I left the door unlocked in case I was in the bathroom or something. Have a seat. There's some tea brewing or if you want something else just rummage through the fridge."

*She looks back the paper n continues to read.*

[saintclaire]

*damion nods and opens the fridge and finds a monster lost in the shuffle he reads the expiration date...still good...he sits down and study's the place whil taking sips of his drink*
