Welcome to Gaia! ::

Toole sighed and came over to take a knee beside the chair. "I don't know, I don't know why today of all days Solaray would attack, and not all the time before this day. I just don't know Ailes, I don't know what i can say to make you feel better, and I'm worried now that were next to be married."

Jezabelle just stared at Motasa, she couldn't believe that he would knock her down and distress her so, and they were teasing Akira in her room. This was her space, her escape from all the problems she had and here they had knocked things around and made a mess. Jezabelle had most of her breath back and felt herself getting warm, Motasa had no right to knock her down, and they had no right to hurt Akira's feelings in Master Toole's house.

She embraced her anger believing in the fact no one was going to to hurt her for protecting her space and the innocent. She had only her instincts and the rudimentary skills she learned from watching people fight.

Jezabelle stood up and just attacked rapidly. Motasa threw his arms up in defense, but Jezabelle just clawed at them ripping through the fabric in a few swipes and working on the flesh underneath. Akira backed away and Motasa finally snapped out of his daze and ran for the door, Jezabelle pursued hissing loudly. Motasa was just starting down the stairs, and Jezabelle chased him down the steps. To see the mental shock and the hurt on another face for a change was intoxicating for Jezabelle and she didn't want to stop, she held onto her anger and fueled it with thoughts of her past she just blamed Motasa for rather then the people responsible.

Akira followed into the kitchen about 3 minutes behind Jezabelle. There was a bucket of water spilled all over the floor, blood drops from who knows which boy, and jezabelle clawing at the pantry door trying to dig her way through the door to the boys inside.

Skira excused herself quietly and dreading this she came to the closed doors of the lounge and like a erring child knocked like a mouse.

Jezabelle shifted her focus on Ian; "So its alright for everyone else in this house to get angry and fight those who trespass against them yet I'm not allowed?" Jezabelle's anger was refueled yet again and she turned back to claw at the door, but the crowd only grew her frustration as she picked up a chair to swing it at the door. The door rattled on its hinges and bowed a bit from the blows, but remained solid and locked firmly. Jezabelle ran out of steam, and not used to having her blood pressure up so high for so long her nose began to bleed.

The chair busted on the fourth blow, the pieces scattering on the wet floor, and feeling lightheaded Jezabelle finally sat down in a chair staring at the door. She was calming down, her rampage stopped by a stupid door, and as reason began to settle in she remembered Toole reinforcing it since she slept in the servants quarters in the back of the pantry.

Toole strode in minus one Akira, but she was replaced with two Arynian guards. The guards stopped just inside the door as Toole approached the pantry door kicking the pieces of chair out of the way he ran a hand along the jamb where the lock was. There was a clicking noise and Toole pushed the door open. He pulled Lennox out first who was pretty much unscathed and pointed at a chair. "Sit or go to jail now its your choice, and before you open your mouth let me tell you that right now no excuse you have is worth the time explaining to me. You will do nothing but listen unless asked to speak."

Toole went back inside the pantry, and a little later Motasa walked out rubbing roughly healed arms. Toole told him much the same thing he told Lennox a few minutes earlier. Toole bent down and looked over the nosebleed on Jezabelle for a minute, he pulled out his handkerchief and gave it to her. "It should stop here in a minute, but thold this under your nose so your dress doesn't get ruined any further then it already has."

Toole stood up and closing the pantry door he leaned against. Toole was silently setting the scene up so everyone would listen to someone .

"Thank you dear;" Toole said pleasantly as he took the tea from Ailes. He looked at Lennox and Motasa and his tone changed quickly. "Mom's been dead for not even a year and you think you can do whatever you want because dad is not there to keep you check. I'm only going to ask once, who has Akira's stone, and you can speak now."

Motasa pointed at Lennox; "He took it from me in the pantry, i don't know what happened to it after that, but what are the guards doing here?" Toole motioned and pointed at Motasa; "The one thing i wished mother had the chance to do before she died was listen to me apologize for being a**, and taking you two for a tour of the jail. The one thing she doesn't tell you on that tour is that when they close the cell you think she still playing, but she slips you a little note through the bars that quite sobering. You can ask Carnath about it, he was the last one to be old enough for the tour, and on that note is all the things you did wrong. Even if you already served punishment before on some things they were there. You spend the whole day in jail with nothing but the note. That is where you two are heading, so while sitting there hers something to think about, what is father going to do to you when finds out." Toole finished his tea; "So finish your tea, and then there going to take you."

"Yeah right you can't throw us in jail, there has to be a trial first, and we are entitled to representation." Motasa said smartly only to loose his courage as Toole started laughing. "You're a damn fool Motasa, the city is still under marshal law, meaning you can be taken to jail before trial, why do you think i brought guards with me. If it wasn't marshal law i would opened the door for Jezabelle to rip you limb for limb until I was satisfied you both had learned your lesson. Then between me and Ailes, your wounds would have been taken care of, and you sent home to Mary. Instead you chose the wrong time to play little game, now it blew up in your faces, its time to pay the consequences."

The guards dragged them out of their chairs since the two boys had finished their tea too quickly. Toole waited till they were at the back door; "Oh hold up, i forgot Ailes may want to say something to you two before your taken to jail." Toole came over and gave Ailes a little kiss on the cheek. "The tea was lovely dear, but sorry for getting long winded."

Toole nodded; "Sure." Toole looked over at the guards; "Well hold up one minute."

Toole chuckled; "I'm not really sending them to jail Ailes, the guards are taking them to Mary's, and I'm hoping the threat of jail will be enough to deter them from tormenting Akira. If you think Jezabelle seeing a specialist will help her that is fine, and speak of Kaos..." Toole smiled; "Well its nice to hear things are okay despite what happened."

Toole shrugs; "Well she was at Mary's place last I knew, but you know Sorrow she'll turn up when you least expect it."

There was a knock on the door and Mary walked back to where Kaos was. "Oh this is good fortune, but we'll be by tomorrow since you wishing to catch up with Ailes. I'm sorry for the intrusion, but i must return to looking for to errant children."

Toole spoke up; "Motasa and Lennox?" Mary nodded; "Those two are driving me nuts, but how did you know I was looking for them?" Toole pointed at the kitchen; "They are in my kitchen, and your welcome to take them off my hands." Mary nodded; 'I'll do more then that when i get those two home, worrying me so, they said they would be back hours ago after they ran an errand for you." Toole shrugged; "That is my fault, i didn't follow up with you, but there not in any serious trouble. Lets just say actions canceled out."

Toole opened the kitchen door wide enough to stick his head in. 'Lennox, Motasa, Mary is here to take you home, sorry for bugging you two guards, but your help is appreciated." The guards let go of the two and used the backdoor to return to their posts. Motasa and Lennox walked out of the kitchen into the hallway. Mary bowed; "My apologies for interrupting."

Toole moved; "Is Sorrow still at your place?" Mary shook her head; "She's in the entry, probably talking to Akira in the lounge, but why do you ask?"

Akira looked at Kaos; "Sorrow, I think he needs a doctor." Sorrow smiled at Kaos, but answered Akira; "He is a doctor Akira, but can you go tell Mary not to wait for me and let Vermillion know to start brewing whatever tea he brought for me." Akira nodded and moved in the direction Kaos came from, and Sorrow motioned to the lounge. "I have a few minutes, and I'll save the ripping you face off for when I come and visit you in the abyss. That way you don't die permanently, and besides that were in my brothers house. I try not to fight people in others houses." Sorrow motioned to the couch as she sat down. "So what have you come to tell me?"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Toole moved over and gave Ailes a hug. Akira came over to Mary; "Sorrow says you don't need to wait on her, and that Vermillion can start making tea." Mary smiled; 'Alright, but I think its best you go in the kitchen for the time being." Akira shook her head; "I'll go upstairs, too much excitement today, i want to curl up with a lesson book before i go to sleep tonight." Mary patted her head; "Well I'll see you in a few days then. Come along you two. I apologize again to you both for disturbing your evening." Mary left and Motasa and Lennox smiled once they were outside.

Jezabelle sighed; "Ian do you get in trouble for getting angry?"
