Moving on

Luna sat agenst a tree as she whiped her eyes. She was looking at the small ring on her finger. her fiance was gone now, but she still wore the ring, to remeber him by. "i miss you" she whispered and closed her eyes. She stood up, her tail wraped around her waist and her ears down as she started to walk along the hill.

(Somehow), Grim had been wandering along, taking a small stroll along the way of Escellsia... He was rather enjoying this planet.. Shameful that he had to consume it. Before long, he noticed a girl that was crying. Why, what gentleman would he be if he did not go to assess the predicament?

"Why, hello there, madam... Might I ask, what is the matter?"

Luna's ear's perked up slightly as she looked at the man who had just spoke to her "j-just r-reminissing(sp?) about s-someone" she studdered shyly and sadily

Grimnyzmal quirked a brow "... Mm? And whom, pray tell, might that be, madam? That is, if you do not mind me asking. I do not wish to intrude on your personal affairs, dear..."

Grim would close his yes, except for his third one, which constantly stayed open. He folded his arms across his chest, listening to the nature of the area and awaiting the girl's response...

Luna looked down at her ring and turned it side to side "my fiance, he dissapered a few months ago" she said softly her ears went down flat on her head her tail tightened around her waist

Grimnyzmal's eyes opened slowly "... Disappeared, you say? Dear me. That is tragic..." Grim smiled slightly, as matter started to take a shape of something near him...

"Dear girl, would you mind if I played a requiem for your Fiancée? It is not to be rude, but rather to symbolize your strife and pain in the form of elegantly exquisite music..." The matter that was forming was Grim's floating, evil piano; Alticord. Grim would sit on a chair made of his scarves, awaiting the OK to play. Unknown to Luna, however, if Grim were to start to play this melody, Luna would slip deep into madness and insanity, under the influence of Grimnyzmal, thus being under his power for however long he deemed necessary.

"... May I?"

luna looked up at him and thought for a moment "thank you but no thanks" she smiled. She had a bad feeling about the random piano, it was making the fur on her tail and ears stand up.

Grimnyzmal's smile faded a bit "... Ah. I see. Well, if I shan't be playing a requiem... Might I just play a tune? I will take requests..." Grim tapped the top of the piano a bit "... And besides that note, what might I do to assist you in your time of need, my dear?"

luna bowed and smiled apoligenicly "im sorry but im just not ready to cheer up right now" she said "i hope you understand" she said bowing agian

Grim nodded "... Ah. Yes. I know. Sometimes, those feelings may linger, and one may wish for them to stay for any number of reasons..." Grim's third eye suddenly twinged "Well. If that is quite all... Might I... Have a little snack? I am simply famished, and I would surely love to have something to eat..." The mouths on World Eater began to gnash and snap about violently...

luna eyes widened as she backed away from the man quickly

Grim shook his head "... My, how unfriendly of you, madam... It is simply impolite to leave without saying anything... Even more rude not to answer my question..." Alticord, the floating Piano would materialize behind Luna, blocking off her escape.

"Now... Will you be willing to answer my question...?"

Luna's tail wraped around her leg showly she was scared "y-you can e-eat as long as y-you dont e-eat me" she said, her voice shaking in fear

Grim chuckled to himself just a bit, Alticord beginning to play the terrible requiem of impending doom upon Luna, as Grim slowly made his way closer to Luna. "... My my, as much as I would like to oblige, madam... I simply cannot make any guarantees. For, you see, there is nothing else for me to eat here except for yourself... And I don't want to starve... Besides. You are in mourning. I can assist you in ending your pain for eternity... Please, allow me to provide a place of solace and fortitude from all things... Your feelings, your strife, your endeavors... Please, rest peacefully..."

Grim's scarf grew to massive proportion, the snarls of the mouths echoing throughout the area. The scarves would now block off the remaining exits, as Grim continued "... In my stomach..."

Luna screamed "get away" she said and yelled for help, even thought it might not come

Grimnyzmal shook his head "You do not wish to become my nourishment? It's a shame that I cannot acknowledge your regards..." World Eater would snap at her, trying to bite at her arms. For some reason, Grim did not want to consume her whole.. Whatever his reasons, he still had them.

"Hm... It is shameful how this realm has no help for the young ladies of this land... Though, I do find it rather quaint here with no distractions from my prize.. Many apologies, dear..."

luna hissed at him, both now angery and scared, she felt something and froze "shit" she said as she poof into a small kitten, this only happening when she was truly terrified (i think i put that in one of my bio's some where ^^, she was now a small blonde kitten. she mewed and took off runing under the piano and into the forest. praying for help in her head

(oi people reading this, feel free to save me Q~Q)

Grim chuckled again, his scarf retracting "Hmhmhmhm... Tis a game of cat-and-mouse you wish to play, hm? Ironic... For now the cat is the mouse on which I prey..." Grim followed behind, walking at a steady pace. His third eye allowed him to see any and all of the movements of the kitten, no matter how far she went. Eventually, she would tire, and Grim would be ready to strike, since he knew where she was.

"Oi.."

A dark haze encompassed the area, distorting all vision around the grand Sakura tree. Footsteps could be heard on the black earth as another figure would come forth. Lucius had felt a familiar presence in the area all day; one that he hadn't felt in years.

"Talk about deja-vu.."

He faced the odd person playing the cat in this scenario, the dark haze beginning to swirl around himself.

luna kept running as fast as she could, trying to stay alive as long as she could.

Grim now began to laugh slightly to himself "Hmhmhmhmhm... Lucius Blackthorn makes himself known... It has been quite some time. It seems my plan has been a success, non? The cat-girl would hardly give me as much energy as I have already exerted. She was merely a lure for someone... Tastier."

Grim's third eye would lock onto Lucius, as Grim licked his lips "... How have you been, Sir Blackthorn?"

Hands still in his pockets, Lucius was stone-faced. Though regardless of who the person was or what his intentions were, common etiquette still applied.

"Bored. I've been in dire need of someone good to practice on.. something this place seems to lack severely."

His eyes began to gleam red, silently analyzing all of what Grimnyzmal was capable of. He was never in a place to even confront this antagonist last time he showed.

"Tell me, how did Vash's void treat you?"

Grim frowned "Ah, how sharp-tongued you are for bringing up such a terrible demise for myself... Though, I must admit, that Vash fellow was quite hospitable in my stay within his void... 'T weren't anything you should concern yourself with, though I humbly appreciate you asking..." Alticord materialized near Grim, now, as a dark tune was played on it by Grim's scarf, World Eater.

"Dear boy... You say you are in need of practice? Ha. I am a good sport. How about you spar with me, hm? Though, if my hungry gets the best of me... I cannot guarantee your safety, though I promise I will try my hardest to keep from consuming you... for the moment."

"My, how considerate."

He slowly unsheathed Umbra, releasing her as she was pulled from her scabbard so that the silver turned to black almost the instant her bare steel met the open air. As he held her out in the open, she sang with a soft vibration of her metal that seemed to harmonize with World Eater.

"I must say that I'm running very low on my own quota. Should you break those inhibitions, then it is I who cannot guarantee your own safety."

Grim's eyes gleamed for a split second, as he said "How brazen. Allow me to show you some manners..." From his 3 eyes came massive, swift beams of red energy that made intense explosions with whatever they impacted. During this expulsion of these beams, World Eater split into thousands of scarf tails, all aimed at Lucius; the mouths on World Eater gnashing ferociously. "Scarf Drill." Each of the thousands of World Eater tips would coil and spin around like destructive drills at extremely high speeds, lunging at Lucius accordingly.

Grim twirled his cane, Lordemeire, around a bit. Even the mouth of Lordemeire seemed to be anxious for another feeding... How tasty Lucius began to look, already...
