adriane wandered back over to the camp after a little while and was
carrying flower crown's.
''don't be so hard on her please..... she's had a rough life before
she started tagging along with me'' she said.
matthew walked into the camp and had his shirt back on, arm's
crossed as he went over and picked his backpack up.
Adeline and Raven followed shortly after, both of them close
together. "What happened?" Adeline asked, looking at Adriane but
then looking at Rogue. "I freaked that one Weather Dragon girl
out," he said, sighing and looking at the direction she had headed
off in. "You mean Crystal?" Adeline replied. "Um, yeah, I think
so."
''crystal doesn't trust many people thank's to her father's abusive
behavior toward's her once her mother died.... which the mother's
death was also caused by her father.. out of defense after a couple
year's she actually had to kill her father to stop his reign of
terror......'' adriane muttered.
matthew put his backpack over his shoulder and looked at rogue.
''what did you do to p--- her off....?'' he asked.
"I was deciding whether or not to wake her up cause' she cast one
of those snow clouds on me... She woke up and thought I was a perv,
so..." Rogue mumbled softly, avoiding gazes with him. The Ice
hybrid readjusted the fingerless gloves on his hand, his gaze
flitting towards Allium. Allium's lip pursed as she momentarily
met, but then she turned towards Adriane, silently.
''she said her father was a pervert at time's when he was drunk....
so don't be so hard on crystal, her past was a horrid one..'' she
muttered.
matthew leaned against the tree and looked at the sky.
''maybe we should start traveling soon, before it get's dark
again'' he said.
"What about Crystal?" Adeline asked, stone-faced as she leaned
against a tree. Her arms were crossed but she didn't give off a
harsh vibe. "We can't just start traveling without her."
''we'll find her before we go, that's what the plan f---ing was..
don't go saying that we were going to leave her'' matthew said
defensively.
adriane covered her face with one of her hand's and sighed, shaking
her head from the quarreling.
"And if she doesn't show forgiveness?" She almost countered, her
voice steel-hard. "Let's not think about that, Addy," Raven
murmured bitterly, more to her than everyone else. Rogue sighed,
carrying the face of guilt. "It'll be fine," Allium said to him,
her arms crossed.
Rogue rolled his eyes and sighed. "There's something about this
place, Allium... It's weird..." He murmured softly in her ear.
"It's fine," she replied half-heartedly, not even looking at him.
Her golden eyes flickered with some sort of emotion.
''let's just get moving and go find crystal...'' matthew grumbled,
pulling his backpack up over his shoulder before trailing off in
the direction crystal stormed off in.
adriane sighed and shook her head.
''i fear for them both sometimes... matthew with his short temper
and crystal for being so defensive that she doesn't even stop to
think......'' she mumbled.
"Well, everyone does have their flaws," Allium replied, her lips
pursed tightly. Adeline followed silently, Raven trailing right
behind her. Rogue sighed, looking with concern to the side,
directly at a mountain. His eyes narrowed ever so slightly and he
followed after the direction that Matthew had gone to.
"Do you have any idea about where she would've went?" Adeline
asked, looking back at Adriane. We don't know Crystal that well,
and honestly I don't think Matthew seems to either... what are the
chances that she'll even be slightly okay with us? Adeline
thought, her icy blue eyes flitting around.
she usually hang's out in a small hut i built to hide ourselves in
when we needed.... i can make it bigger for you guy's if needed,
me, crystal, and matt usually hang out there when we're not busy''
adriane said.
Adeline just nodded in reply. Is she implying that we're staying
together as a group?... I mean, we've barely known each other for a
day, and we've already ticked off Crystal... Raven thought.
It's nice of her, though... honestly this is a really nice
group.
''if you want though, you can simply stay for a day and then head
out on your way, that's usually what matthew does every once in a
while.. usually a day or two at the most to be honest.... but
there's enough food to go around, the cabin shouldn't be too far,
it's hard for anyone to see since i camoflaughed it with vine's,
ivy, and moss'' she said.
"Thank you for letting us tag along with you guys," Adeline said
almost timidly. This is kind of awkward... the only allies I've
had so far is Raven, but it'd be nice to meet more hybrids...
''the cabin also work's as a little medical hut in case injured
hybrid's that are as kind as you guy's are stumble along this
place'' adriane said.
she thought for a moment and looked over her shoulder at the four
that were following behind her.
''unless you'd rather head on out after you restock a bit, that's
fine as well, not many really stay beside's crystal and matthew''
she said.
"Would it be too weird if I stay for a bit? I don't really have any
business elsewhere," Allium said a bit awkwardly, looking up at
Adriane as she steadily lodged herself over a fall branch (rather
than simply walking around it). Raven glanced over at Adeline, who
he knew was thinking. He didn't mind the people, but it felt
strange to him. He wasn't used to being around so many hybrids,
especially a nature dragon... What would happen if I snap and
try to kill her? With all the brainwashing they did to me I
wouldn't be surprised...
