So it was the next day that our group had actually reached Wales. Slightly stretching, Tera Capoiera was bording off of the ship with the two men trailing behind her. She turned and looked at them both with a sort of smile which faded quickly. "What's the matter..?", Revan asked. She was sort of embarressed to actually say. The thing that had suddenly came over her was haunting loneliness. It would sound very childish coming out of her mouth, so she just hesitated before actually answering. Her eyes began to grow literally dull with sadness as she slightly looked down.
"Tera..?", Revan called her name. Instantly, she looked at them both, "Oh..it's--nothing. I--I--have to leave. This is my stop..besides...I don't want to be a burden to you. Thank you so much.."
"You're not a burden..but if you have to go, we understand.", Darkker answered along with a nod.
She couldn't look them in the eyes because she didn't want to show her tears. She started backing away, still not showing her eyes. Her voice sounding a little shakey, she said, "If we ever meet again...I will repay you...I promise.." She then turned around and walked away. She didn't look back, for that would only make loneliness grow even more. Even though they knew she wasn't going to look back, the two men still waved good-bye and went their seperate ways also.

Alone....? Again? I guess I should've seen it coming. All good things must go...isn't that what you told me Aleron..? All of my true happiness went away... you took it away..
***
Age: 15
Rome, Italy
I remember that night..perfectly clear..
Tera and Aleron we inseperable. Aleron was a man who was Tera's first love. He had kids that seemed to love Tera to the ends of the Earth. He took care of Tera as if she were his wife. This was the begining of the stage of insanity I guess you could say. But for now, lets just say that looks are deceitful.
It was one night..the young couple was standing on the rooftop of an old abandoned building. They seemed to watch the beautiful setting sun that was getting ready to say goodnight to the also matching beauty city of Rome. The street lights were begining to come on, making it just perfect for the two.
They both stood there silently watching because words could describe anything at the moment. All Tera could do was smile warmly. They both held hands. Though...something was a bit strange. Even though Tera was feeling good, she kept getting akward vibes from her loved one, Aleron. She looked at him. His face had seemed so serious. He wasn't smiling at all. He just stared straight foward. The expression on his face made her smile fade quickly. At that very moment, he dropped her hand, which seemed like disgust. Things seemed to move slow, as their eyes met, he began to draw out his gun. Her reaction seemed slow, though it wasn't. She jumped back into what seemed to be her fighting stance. It was a poor and weak stance, but she didn't know any better. It was either that, or die without a fight.
"What's wrong with you?", she sort of shouted.
He gave a demonic smirk and continued to hold his gun towards her, "Ky Hyuga...he sent me."
Everything just fell down hill with those words. She began to look down, as he just seemed to laugh.
He gave his laugh and said, " I'm sorry, but you must die now."
If you think it ends here, then you haven't even been reading. He let out one loud fire from his gun at Tera, but...
...he missed.
She found herself, in her own surprise, running towards Aleron. Uncontrollable seemed to come from no where. She fought him, and fought him, until she could fight him no more. Tears fell as she fought him. The thought running through her mind that she had finally found someone that cared and ended up being haunted by her father's slaves again. It seemed so corrupt. Blood stained her hands as she continued to fight. Every tear she cried went towards how she felt about Ky. The young girl fought until she was done. It seemed like never, but she finished it. She stood back even and saw that she had killed him.

I know what I did was wrong...but I had my reasons...when I think of that day...believe or not...E ycgat dra Munt vun vunkejahacc dryd hekrd...E kiaccat ed fyc dra uhmo desa E naymmo ghaf fryd du bnyo vun...kut naymmo tuac aqcecdc...
{Traslation: I asked the Lord for forgiveness that night...I guessed it was the only time I really knew what to pray for...God really does exsists...}

Capoiera continued to walk alone. She looked around like a lost little child. Her eyes had seemed to become a dull brown, with the redness from her eyes making her look deranged. Though she continued to walk through the streets of Wales, making it from her slightly diffused vision. Tera then cupped her face into her hands and stopped suddenly in her tracks. She softly began to let out cries. They were so soft, you could mistake them for whispers. The fact of being alone is what she hated so much. That's all she could think about at the moment. It seemed to burn fire through her slightly unstable mind. Though, the thought of loneliness was broken by a requiem.....a requiem of whispers. She looked up from her hands to see a woman in a black robe playing a familiar song. Her flute was as clean as a whistle and the sound that came from it matched its beauty. A small crowd of children surrounded her, for they were awed by such a talent. People that walked by couldn't help but to notice the mysterious woman.
The woman momentarily looked up, and at that moment, her eyes met Tera's. Though, she was still playing, something had seemed to come over Tera...it was like something in her eyes that made her a little afraid and a little excited.
"Paehk cinnuihtat po dra cuiht uv nyeh dryd cuihtc mega cekrc, E naymewa dryd funtc yna bufanmacc..", Tera began to sing silently. Tears began to fall gently down Capoiera's cheek because she then realized that the woman was playing the Rose Requiem of peace....but why...? And...how did she know it..?
{Translation: Being surrounded by the sound of rain that sounds like sighs, I realize that words are powerless.. }
She looked up at the seemingly grey sky and wiped her eyes. Without hesitation, she silently walked on.
"Drana'c uhmo uha drehk dryd naylrac sa. Oac, E duilr dra lumt lraag fedr so byms yht vaam edlmuca dra kyb padfaah dra dfu uv ic fedr dryd asbdo fynsdr. Cu fa lyh cryna drec desa yc uin raynd paydc. Fedr uin aoac lmucat...", Tera quietly continued to sing under her breath.
{Translation: There's only one thing that reaches me. Yes, I touch the cold cheek with my palm and feel it close the gap between the two of us with that empty warmth. So we can share this time as our heart beats. With our eyes closed...}

Revan and Darkker walked into the nearest hotel just before the rain had began to drop down with it's brute force. It was as if someone had angered the Heavens above. Kere managed to perch himself up by the window and watch the rain fall. For once, he was actually quiet. Even though it was raining hard, it seemed to keep him quiet. He ignored the rain which seemed to beat down on the roof, and starred off into the rain. Darkker noticed and went over to where he was.
"What's the matter, eh?", Darkker asked in a voice trying to cheer him up.
"That woman...", he answered.
"Hmm?", Darkker curiously looked out of the window, "What woman?"
"No...Tera.", he said.
"Well...we left her all alone like that. We shouldn't have done that.", Reven said coming from behind them. His eye seemed to burn slightly at the thought of Tera. He put his hand over his eye, just slightly clutching it.
"It wasn't for us to decide Maxwell..", Darkker stated.
There was a moment of silence. No one said anything at all, but without a word, Revan took off into the rain. No one went after him because everyone knew what rejection felt like..
