I sigh and look at Axel.
"Listen, I really need for you to go back to camp after I get off, now more than ever." I tell him. Looking around the cabin now, obviously full of monsters.

Skale comes up a few feet from her and stairs up at the sky, he is still dry as can be. "This never gets boring.... Do you want to do something else? I am sure watching me swim is getting boring."

Axel shakes his head. "Nope. I won't leave you with fifteen or so monsters... It would be better for the both of us if I stay, slay them all, and escort you to your friends."

I shake my head firmly.
"No. I don't want you to get killed." I tell him stubbornly. I sigh.
"You know, I thanked the Gods when I found out that you were going to die. I was devastated, definitely, but I was happy that I wouldn't have to be there to witness your death. I knew my heart couldn't handle it. I don't want you to die in front of me. I can't stand losing another person I care about." I whisper. I looked down at my hands.
"Please?"

"I don't care, it's interesting to watch all the creatures, but we may need to go back soon before I get too tired or my clothes drag me under," I say smiling. My hair pools around me in a dark wet color. I look up and see the sun beginning its descent and think that my dads day is nearly over.

Skale nods and uses the water to force her to the shore. He swims after her and the two eventually reach the shore with ease. He stands up on the sand and looks at Syra. "Well, I hope you had fun." Skale smiles and walks off towards the dining hall.

Axel shakes his head. "No... I am going to stay here and if I die, I will do it defending you." He smiles awkwardly again and notices they are now landing.

I frown, but feel relieved that we are about to land. I grab Axel's arm.
"Listen, if you're trying to be some hero or if you're trying to conceal this as a Kamikaze mission, forget it! I can't let you die because of me! I can't go through my life with that on my shoulders! I'm... Not strong enough."

I smile and call to him, "I'll be at dinner soon. I'm gonna go change." I walk to my cabin and grab another pair of jeans and an extra camp T shirt. I look around to see if Xenia is around but don't see her. I ask one of the other campers and they say that they haven't seen her around at all. One says they thought they saw her walking up the hill with axel and I frown. Jogging out I go to the dining hall and walk up behind skale to say, "have you seen axel anywhere recently?"

Axel shakes his head. "Listen... I am here to watch you whether you want me or not. I honestly don't care if I you want me here or not." Axel crosses his arms and gives them all a death glare, one by one.

Skale gets in and looks around, unsure of what to do and he then hears Syra. "Nope.. I haven't seen him around since this morning. He was on Xenia's cabin I believe."

I cross my arms and glare back at him.
"If you don't leave I will stand up, look at all these monsters, and say 'I offer myself up as tribute'. Then my blood is on your shoulder, so to speak." I said quietly and slowly. Suddenly the plane jumps hard to the ground as it hits the runway, way too hard. I claw at the seats beside me, my eyes wide.
"Holy Armageddon Fireballs!" I hiss, my heart racing. I look towards the cockpit.
"What the hell?!" I complain. There is a moment of awkward silence until the captain says we are free to leave the cabin. Hallelujah.

Axel shrugs. "If you want to see your friend, then you most likely aren't going to do something so stupid. And if you do, I am going to knock you unconscious kill these monsters and I will drag you to your friends." He smiles.

I pause.
"I didn't know you were so violent. What if I lose you inside the terminal? Maybe by accident, maybe not." I shrug indifferently. Axel wouldn't really do that... Would he?

"If you lose me, I will find you. No one is better than me at the camp in terms of tracking... I'd find you with ease." Axel smiles and stands up, waiting for the two to leave.

I frown.
"You suck out loud. Fine, if you die, I'm not coming to your funeral... unless of course you want me to bawl like a baby." I say bitterly. I look forward.
"I get the feeling that you're not doing this just because you have to." I mutter.

"None of our half siblings have seen her around today. Could this be a bad sign even if axel was with her wherever they are?" I ask feeling a lit nervousness now that I haven't seen either around since this morning. I then lean in and whisper, "could something bad be happening again? I mean, that guy down on the streets earlier was different from the other people. Then the monsters showed up."

Skale shrugs. "Axel is almost as good a swordfighter as Dante and he is very agile. He is someone that I do not want to deal with. He can keep her safe better than anyone else... Besides, he is starting to develop feelings for her I think." Skale yawns a bit and continues. "I have never seen him around anyone so much."

Axel shrugs. "Whether I am doing this for personal reasons or not does not really matter. I won't die so you won't have to worry about the funeral." Starts to walk down the aisle now that everyone is out of the plane.

(( I have an idea for the 'monsters' don't do anything with them ))

"I agree with you about axel. He needs someone to be with to be less lonely. He has only so many friends," I say then remember the earlier part of our conversation. I sigh sadly and say, "I'm probably just being paranoid from everything going on lately, but I think I have reason to be a little paranoid given whats happened since I've been here."

I raise an eyebrow.
"Hey, you said a lot, but all you really did was avoid the question." I told him. I stand up next to Axel and sling Aurelius across my chest. The plane looks empty. The stewardess looked back at us and asked us to leave. I quietly nudge Axel.

"Hellllooooo"I yell,"Is anybody here?". Nobody comes out so I decide to do a bit of exploring.

Skale nods. "That's true... Things are getting weird around here." He smiles lightly. "But nothing is going to get in here." He laughs and turns to the food. "Hunger!"

Axel nods and walks out of the plane. Instantly the two are surrounded and led away. Something seems familiar about them, but he is unsure what.

I grab onto Axel's sleeve and keep close. I wonder what's going on, Axel seems as calm as always.
