This is Sukaaretto's cottage. She found it out in the woods one day when she was about 100. She's lived here by herself and usually grows vegetables in her garden. She'll take anyone that needs help in and will take care of them until they need to leave.

Sukaaretto hurried silently through the woods, keeping the hood of her cloak up on her head. She pulled a jingle of keys from her pocket and picked out the one she needed fro her front door. The dark shape of her cottage loomed closer with each step and a sense of security washed over her as she was almost home. She quickly unlocked the door and went inside, turning on the lights. She sighed, closing and locking the door behind her and hanging up her cloak. She was tired and just wanted to go to bed, but she wanted to take a shower first. She went upstairs and started up the shower, stepping in quickly once she was undressed.

Rishi stopped, looking up at the cottage. She could hear the tinkle of water and nodded. "She's home boys... but she's in the shower... Do you plan on waiting...? or should i get you inside now so you can surprise her... She should be happy to see you two, no?" Rishi asked softly. She didn't mind doing something like this every once in a while... it reminded her she still had a heart with all the killing she was forced to do.

Arekkusu gave a light smile, "Hold on, I'll get use inside." He walked up to the door and bent down. He grew out his index claw and inserted it in to the lock. With a swift turn and push, the lock clicked open and the boy stood fully. He bowed, "Ladies first." he said politely.

Rishi watched the man skeptically, chuckling as he unlocked the door. "Why thank you... you do know that if you that enough though it damages the lock... right..?" She asked, chuckling again and walking inside, before leaning against a wall, crossing her arms loosely over her chest and relaxing briefly.

"Eh, the lock should be fine, I didn't hit it too bad." Arekkusu said, waiting for Ze to go inside before going him himself. He locked the door and looked around the cottage, "Hm, Sukaaretto's really made a nice place for herself." He said, exploring the large first room. It consisted of a large fireplace with a cooking pot in it's hearth, a long wooden table and some shelf's lining the walls, holding up some fruit and jams.
Scarlett got out of the shower about 10 minutes later. She dried herself off and dressed in a long white night shirt. the smell of three others in her home caught her nose and she raised an eyebrow, (What in the world?) She thought, making her way downstairs, "Alright, who ever you are, you really shouldn't just barge in to someone's house without asking, it can be quite..." She trailed off as she entered the room, her eyes landing on Ze and Arekkusu. Ze pushed himself off the wall, a smile crossing his lips, "Rude." She finished. Tears stung her eyes and a smile crossed her face, "Arekkusu? Ze?" She ran over to them and hugged her older brother. "Wh-How did you find me?" She stuttered, snuggling against Arekkusu's chest.
Arekkusu smiled, hugging her close to him, "Actually, we got a little help." he pulled back some and introduced Suka to Rishi. "Thank you very much for your help, you don't know how much this means to us." He said to Rishi, smiling at her in gratitude.

Rishi grinned, staying where she was. "No problem... Doing these kinds of things... It keeps me sane." Her grin turned into a sincere smile, and she shrugged as she lifted herself off the wall. "Well... I'm sure you three want to catch up, so I'll take my leave.." She moved towards the door, unlocking it to leave.

Suka got out of her brother's arms, "You don't have to go. I have extra rooms if you'd like to stay the night." She said, moving her red hair from her face and looked at Rishi with thankful green eyes.

Rishi stopped, facing the door and blinking. She'd certainly never been offered something like... a place to stay, if only briefly. she turned looking over her shoulder. "I... Are you sure...?" She asked uncertainly. It was obvious that she was... out of her element to say the least.

Sukaaretto nodded her head, giving a kind smile, "It's the least I can do since you brought my brothers back to me." She said. The half demon vampire was always happy to help others whenever they needed.

The Shadow Mancer blinked again, before smiling lightly. "Thank you... This... This is probably the first time..." Rishi just shook her head, at a loss of word's. The first time anyone has been so kind

Suka nodded her head, "It's my pleasure. Are any of you hungry? I have some stew that's still warm." She said, going over to the pot hanging over the roaring fire.

"No, I'm fine.. Thank you though." Rishi smiled, taking her place along the wall as she had before, almost resembling as an onlooker. It was a force of habit after all..

Arekkusu and Ze said they'd fed already and Sukaaretto put the lid back on the pot, "Alright, I'll show you to your rooms." She said, leading them upstairs. She waited at the top for Rishi, not wanting her to fall behind.

Rishi was there in a relative instant, moving to catch up to the others so that she wouldn't be a bother. She was a guest after all, and of all the training she had been given, her manner training seemed to keep her on her toes most often of all.
