Kain's eyes slightly narrowed as Ms.White dragged him in. He looked at the two adults before looking away. Why did he have to be here anyways. "I dont feel good, can I go back to the room?" he lied. He didnt want to be here. Besides, it wasnt like they were going to take him in as their child.
Sneaky as he was, Kain slipped out of the line and quietly headed upstairs. He closed the door silently and made himself comfortable on the bed. With a yawn, he grabbed his headphones and turned on some music, making sure it wasnt too loud. At least the room was empty.

Aaron chuckled, as usual, fooling around with the other kids. When Ms.White gave him the death glare, he stopped. Of course as soon as she looked away he was back to being himself. He caught sight of Kain sneaking away but didnt say anything. Wasnt his problem anyways. The boy sighed and looked towards the window, wishing he can go outside. It was boring staying indoors all day.

(Umm, Azel is the boy, and Asel is the girl (facepalms))

Azel and Asel wanted to run toward each other. They did not like being separated, and it took 3 other kids to hold Azel back. Asel of course tried to run, but Ms. Winkle was too strong. Asel looked to her. "Yes, hes the only family i have" she said, crying a little. Then began the most obvious signs they wanted to be together. For starters, they had already tried running, and now Azel and Asel were both sad. Their pure hearts beated a bit quicker, and loudly. Azel and Asel kept their eyes locked on each other. Azel and Asel held their necklaces, the only thing they had gotten from their dead parents. If put together, they made a lovely inscription of symbols, although they never learned what it said.

"I miss my brother" Asel sobbed.

"please be quiet now dear, we have guests" Ms. Winkle said. If there was something Ms. Winkle knew, is when they did have to be separated, to be as kind as possible, or else it would only make things worse. Separating them is like a bomb.

Unity stood in line not knowing what to do, her mind was racing over and over again the same thought. I don't belong here, I don't need a family She could understand the twins pain, it was hard for her when she first came here not seeing her brother everyday but it was something you had to get used to.
-----------------------------
Juliana stood in the line waving her pretty tutu in the air. Today the little girl had decided she wanted to be a ballerina and even thou she picks deferent things to be almost everyday, this one seemed to be more impotent to her her heart. She hummed to herself in line a few random notes.

Clarie gently passed the boy on to the little girl and smiled gently "It is a good goal always to keep the family together." Claire whispered softly. Claire looked gently in both childrens eyes and smiled softly "Would you like a nice home to go to?" Claire asked softly "You'd have to go to church though, and you'd have to stay away from bad and evil things." Claire said gently she looked over to see Bill talking to another little girl she sighed. "You know we've always wanted kids, could never have them." Claire spoke softly to both children. "How old are you?" she asked "The pair of you."

Bill smiled softly as he looked the book over. "A reader? I love books, they can be one's best friend." Bill smiled again "Lolita is a fine name and I bet you are strong?" asked Bill softly "Tell me about the book?" He asked gently he would talk to all the children but this one seemed lonely and needing someone she could talk too.

Darkos began his whispering and all the children could hear it, Claire could hear the whispering too she looked at Asel and Azel. And softly pulled them into her wonderful warm loving arms that were also protecting motion, whatever was whispering here and whatever it was she felt she knew he was not of this world and was evil. Clair nodded softly "Tell me about you?" she asked softly "What kind of games to you like to play?"

Kain could hear the whispering once more. "Leave me alone.." he said through gritted teeth, knowing it was probably the same thing from yesterday. "If the adults here arent bothering me, then it's the kids, now it's this voice?" he complained wishing he can throw someone, or something out the window.

Aaron was talking with the others until he heard the whisper. "Hey hear something?" he asked. They seemed confused but nodded. Aaron listened for a second before shaking it off. "I'll be back, need the rest room," he said with a grin. He ran upstairs, even after all the warnings he never listened. Aaron ran past the attic before stopping and skiping back. "Ooh cool. Wonder what's up there." he said rocking back and forth. "Food? Toys? Monsters? Eh.. maybe not monsters... no wait... yeah all the monsters are already out..." he said to himself. The monsters as in Ms.White and the others.

Azel and Asel (now reunited) hugged each other. And with all the commotion, no one noticed the 3 other kids with shoe marks and scratches from holding a flailing Azel back. Their hearts raced, beating loudly and purely. (If darkos was even the slightest awake, this might take his interest.) Azel and Asel both told her together "We don't like evil things, and we are...." they paused, thinking a little "9, and we have... Azel began to cry a little as Asel did as well. They hugged each other more, and then told her "We have never had a home other then this one. Our parents died at our birth" they told her.

They could still hear Darkos, his whispers and wishes. Azel and Asel found something about this voice....unsettling, and therefore, tried to block it from their minds. They looked back at Claire, who could hear it too and brought them close together. "We like many games, like sorry, and chess, and such" they replied, focusing on her. The whispers were all around, but that didn't stop them from blocking it. For 9 year olds, they had pretty strong wills.

Only then did the storm outside has a huge boom and crash. As Azel and Asel looked out the window, it appeared that the airport, which was the only way off the island, was just hit by it and had caused a massive explosion. Azel and Asel hugged each other, fearing of what had just happened. It could take weeks to repair it, which means it would take some time before they could leave this place if they went home with the possible parents who they found very nice and caring. Azel turned and asked "Would you like a room? im sure we have some still open" Azel asked, trying to not be afraid and nice to Claire

Lolita smiled again at his words, books really were her best friends in this place.

"I'm not sure about strong, I'm just different." She said softly, holding up the book for him to see. "The Phantom of the Opera, it's one of my favourites. I always felt sorry for the phantom, all he wanted was to be loved."

She froze at the sounds of Darkos' voice but unlike the other children, who were clearly terrified by him, a radiant happiness seemed to wash over her, improving her mood greatly. It was obvious that she was much more happy now, even though no one could tell why. She smirked slightly as she noticed the looks of some of the other kids.

"I think some of the others are a bit jealous of the attention you're giving me." She whispered conspiratorially to Mr Anderson. "They're always really eager at the possibility of getting new parents."

Bill smiled as he listened to the child and nodded "The Phantom is a good story. I wonder have you read Les Miserables?" asked Bill softly and smiled "Yes, I am sure the others want parents just as much as I am sure you would want them." Bill smiled softly "Claire?" he called Claire over she had the travel bag with her. Claire looked over at Bill and then back to Asel and Azel.

"Perhaps an overnight might not be such a bad idea, it would give us more time to talk to all of you more than once..." Claire smiled she never realized how hard this would be, she hadn't known there were all these children. She walked over to Bill he smiled and showed her the book Phantom Of The Opera. "Oooh, that is a good book." She knew immediately what Bill wanted and pulled out a brand new copy of Les Miseralbs. She smiled.

Then she saw two girls a she walked over to Unity, though she didn't know the child's name she smiled "You were the one on the computer laptop?"she asked softly "Listing to something where we were we couldn't hear we could only see. How old are sweetheart?" she asked softly and then smiled at the little girl with the tutu. Bill and Claire had decided on older children. Asel and Azel were 9 and that was a bit young for her and Bill, but she liked them both and wanted to try and change the age thing, she had seen the look on Lolita's face she wasn't that interested in being adopted, and the poor dear Claire hadn't wanted to stay too long. "Bill..." She hissed trying to get him to come away from the child, but Bill was too deeply interested in Lolita.

Upon hearing pure hearts Darkos's whispers stopped he blinked, knowing he would never have the twins if they had that kind of purity in their hearts. Darkos turned his attention to Lolita and whispered to his child "You are not up for adoption young one... I need you here... you belong to me now..." he whispered "You will never find parents suitable to you." darkos let out a loud roar and the air port exploded. He would not take a chance at loosing his child.

Lolita shook her head slowly.

"I've never had chance to read it before, but I've heard it's a wonderful story." She said, surprised that he had taken an interest in what she was reading. She was even more surprised when his wife pulled out a copy of that book.

She hesitated at his comment. Yes he was alot nicer than she had expected but did she really want parents? No, she didn't. When she heard the voice it was confirmed, Mr Anderson was nice but she didn't need him... she had Darkos.

"Sir, my parents didn't want me. I don't see why I should want new ones." Her words were surprisingly blunt and cold, considering how sweet she had been a moment ago. And when the air port exploded, whilst the others were startled she didn't even blink. "Please excuse me Mr Anderson." She slowly stood up and left the room.

As she made her way to her room, Lolita thought about what had happened. He wouldn't want her anyway, not when Ms Winkle and the others told him of her violent outbursts and reserved nature. She didn't care anymore, she had all she could ever want.

"I'll never leave Darkos, I belong to you."

Aaron tilted his head and took a step towards the attic.
"AARON WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!" At that, the boy jumped and spun around. "Oh.. Ms.White.. heh didnt see you there. Uh.. I got lost on the way to the bathroom?" he said, sounding more like a question than a statement. The woman put her hands on her hips, "Mhmm.." she said raising her eyebrows.
"Ok.... uh I'm on my way." Aaron quickly walked down the hall, slipping into the bathroom. "She's such a monster..... why is it that she always catches me doing something?" he muttered as he walked over to the sink, turning on the water.
He stared at the water flowing down the sink, lost in thought. What caught his attention was a black and white cat that sat by the tree branch, staring at him. "Muffins!" he shouted, but in a whisper. He opened the small window of the bathroom, letting the cat in. He had no idea why he even named the cat Muffin, but it just came into his head when he first saw the little furball. Holding it in his arms he quickly walked out of the bathroom and into the boy's dorm.

Kain looked up as he heard the door close. Aaron with his... cat again walked in happily. How was he always smiling in this hell hole? He shook his head, wondering what was going on up in that boys head, but smiled. At times like this, it didnt hurt to have someone as bubbly as him.

Unity looked at the woman and couldn’t help but give her a sour looking face. “Seventeen” she said pulling her ear phones out of her pocket. Debating whether or not to ignore this woman, she finely decided not to be a bitch and stuck the ear pieces back in her pocket. “and I was lessoning to Dracula” she rolled her eyes looking at her.

When Juliana who stood next to her said in a loud voice, “I’m a Ballerina!” and let out a small giggle.

Tammy stood there, dusting herself off, after attempting to hold back Azel. If anything was impossible, it was holding him back. Tammy looked at the plane outside, and then at Azel and Asel. "Poor kids, they have been here their whole lives" she said, looking at Kain. She had been here, she was about 4 years old, when she had seen them crawl in. They were about 2 at the time, and had already taken an interest in things. She had seen a lot of the people come in here, and she found herself usually caring for them when the others could not. She sighed, and looked back at the parents. "So who do you think they will choose this time?" she asked him, referring to all the parents to have ever come here.

Claire smiled "Oooh spooky. I love good vampire stories. have you by chance heard of a man named Jim Butcher? He's written a series called The Dresden files, the first book is called The Storm Front." Claire smiled warmly she pulled out of her book bag a rather worn book. "Here..." she giggled softly "Seventeen? What is your favorite vamp stories?" she asked. Claire smiled she was genuinely interested in the subject "Have you ever met one?" she asked with a soft giggle she had a lot of energy for a 30 some year old woman.

Bill sighed, she had left the Phantom book and then nodded he placed the Les Mis book and gently rubber banned the two together he saw Claire was busy with the girl with pink hair. He smiled at another child who grabbed his interest and then looked over at Claire again he gave her a look as if they were two young couples just starting out in their love life, though they were far from it and legally married, their love still had sparks in it that was like nothing else anyone has ever seen. He came up behind Claire just as he heard the words Vamps.

"No thanks" Unity shook the book the woman ofered away. "I don't normaly read vampire books, just Bram Stoker" she sighed looking at her with a stink eye. What dose she think I am a twilighter? she asked herself with a cold gaze. "I normaly read holocost survile stores" she corected her.

Claire grinned "This isn't a vamp story... trust me read at least the first three chapters to night and if you don't like it you can give it back to me at breakfast time." Claire smiled gently "What is the harm? It'll only take 20 minutes of your time to try a new book. And it's not per say a full pledged Vamp book... there are werewolves, fairies, changelings, humans, wizards, and much much more... please give it a try? I'd give you a new book, but I didn't bring any with me." Clair looked truly disappointed at that, "We like to encourage people to read anything and everything, even if it dosen't always agree with God's will." Claire smiled gently .


Darkos looked around from the attic where he was stuck and glared, those parents can't have his children!!! Especially the young ones Asel and Azel, how can they have such pure hearts even being twins... ugh... Darkos began to whisper in the one called Azel's ears and channeled it so only he could hear his voice. He would separate the twins, perhaps that would win him both boy and girl, he would work on the boy first, Kain wasn't willing to accept his offer, and the one thing was Darkos could not force anyone to join him, he could not take their free will away with out them allowing him to do it. It was the rules, stupid rules really.

Asel could tell something bothered Azel. Darkos's intense whisper was so strong Azel could feel Darkos's will, but Azel kept himself strong. Azel dropped to the floor slightly, and was not expecting the focus. Asel however, her pure presence, gave him more then enough strength to block out Darkos with something more addicting...elevator music, and gradually, it was sent through the link to Darkos as well, and with it being elevator music, was incredibly annoying. Asel smiled at Azel. A pure surge of happiness and love strengthened Azel, and he managed to stand up. "As long as im with you" he said to Asel "i am happy" he finished, hugging her.

Tammy felt the voice stop, but saw Azel fall to the ground, like it all aimed at him now. "Is he alright?" she asked Kain. But once Asel helped him up, he seemed better. Tammy, feeling not needed right now, walked outside into the Garden, covered by the porch roof. Despite the storm, it was a rather nice view, the flowers and plants all looking beautiful. She felt strongest here, and loved to smell the flowers. Tammy thought about her parents, and was still waiting for them, but she was patient. She was strong, and she would not go down easily. And then her thoughts drifted toward Kain, and she decided that he might need her help most right now, seeing as how he seemed to be depressed.

Darkos rumbled with pain as the pure light went to him, he howled and all the kids could hear him. Claire shrank as she heard the evil thing howl in pain and looked at all the children, then she looked to Bill and sighed softly he seemed just as startled by the loud painful noise the evil had given. Clair came to the small nine year olds and sighed as she saw another child leaving the small group. Were not the children supposed to stay here until she and Billi had the opportunity to talk to them all? She came up behind Tammy and gently placed her hand on her shoulder "Hello sweetheart." Claire said very gently and softly.

Bill smiled up at Unity and grinned now. This one looked like she could fit his family he gently placed a hand on her hair "Pink?" he asked gently looking her in the eyes "Pink hair? What kind of statement are you making."

"They are my children! mine I tell you!" Darkos hissed dangerously "LOILITA!!!!!" He hollered as he was very angry and glared down at the new human parents "LOILITA!!!!!" He called this time not being a loving father or acting as a loving parent but more like a spoiled brat. He shouted only so Loilita could hear him.

Both Kain and Aaron stopped what they were doing as they heard a terrible howl. "What was that?" Aaron asked looking at Kain. The older boy stared at the door for a second before shaking his head. "Nothing... I dont know." he said getting up. "Better not get caught with that cat." he said before walking out of the room.
Kain stared at the ground, leaning on the door before looking up. He wondered if the two visitors were still here. They seemed like nice people.. he had to agree with that. That was how his parents were... Kain walked towards the stairs quickly and peeked down. To tell the truth, he did want a family, a warm loving family... it's just that he told himself he didnt need any. Kain shook his head, leaning against the railing.
Weird, every time he heard the voice, he somewhat felt uncomfortable, but Lolita seemed happy. Maybe he should ask her...

(im sorry, but i cant stop laughing at my own post....elevator music XD, Azel fought him with pure hope, love, and elevator music, lightning, Darkos is gunna need to do something other then sit on his ass, or he is guna starve up there without any souls) (I think that pissed Darkos off *looks at post* yep, he is pissed)

Tammy looked at Claire. "Oh hi" she said, trying to pretend like she didn't hear the voice. She looked at the flowers in the garden. "Aren't the flowers so beautiful in the rain?" she asked her, looking at her. Tammy walked over to the side. "So many people come and go from here....more come then go, except when they get old enough." Tammy wondered through the garden. "If i were you, i would chose as many as you could support and leave" she told her. It was clear what Tammy was talking about now. The voice. "It was only something recent to have happened, and ever since, the storm hasn't let up." Tammy looked at Claire. She walked past Claire, whispering "And don't go in the attic, Azel and Asel have enough instinct not to go up there, and i suggest you don't ether. So far those 2 are the only ones iv seen to block out the voice for so long, and just now...." She paused. She then said "And just now, that thing is now pissed at us, but why, i don't know..."

Azel and Asel skipped through the halls. Skipping helped get their minds off things. They soon stopped though. Ahead, the entrance to the attic was. Azel and Asel looked at each other, and walked away. They could tell something bad was up there, and had no will to go up there. Azel and Asel looked at each other, not wanting anything.....but each other..... (alright, they may want a family, but mainly they want to be together).

(If Darkos gets enough power, will he eventually start making the lights flicker and such? It would be a great plot twist to have him get more powerful the more hearts he gets so that he could start controlling the Orphanage little by little. And seeing as how the parents will be here awhile, i wouldn't be surprised if any other parents didn't come in....and if Darkos ordered Lolita to kill them...)

Unity looked at Clare and kept her grumpy face, but she didn’t have anytime to say anything when the voice screamed, she smiled as Clare backed away from her finely left alone. Damn it! Spoke to soon she thought as Bill started the conversation.

“It means stop fucking touching my hair, it’s mine I can what I want with it…” she said with a pissed gaze. What am I giving of some kind of wanting-ness aroma to day?

((idk my head hurts and i just woke up))

Lolita froze when she heard his voice.

Something was wrong. She'd never heard him this angry before, especially not like this. For the briefest of moments she felt a flicker of fear but then she remembered what he had done for her, if there was anything she could do to then she wouldn't hesitate.

She started to make her way towards the attic, checking for anyone who was watching, but thankfully everyone else was still downstairs with the Anderson's. She went up the steps and through the door,walking inside towards him.

"Tell me what I can do." She said simply, her voice full of devotion.

"Kill them, Kill all the parents come..." he meant Claire epically, she was so strong in her faith that he did not know if he could bring her down. "I can't have them parents ruin my plans, and you also take Azel and pry him away from his sister... focus on the sister though.. spend time with her, turn her to our side. Those two need to be separated, and in the end we will bring them back together, say frame them for the murder... the orphanage will be forced to lock them down in separate cells, cells that no one knows about but me and Ms. White, and now you. Do you understand what I am saying? Any parents that come from now on kill them, kill them all ..." By her he was referring to Claire.

Claire smiled at Tammy and gently looked her in the eyes, "I hear it too darling." But it did not effect Claire the way it did the children, she was not afraid of this monster. "Yes the flowers are pretty." Clare frowned when Tammy had whispered to her to take everyone she could. "Id like to take you and the twins, and the girl with Pink hair, and the one my husband was talking to when we first came in the one with the book Phantom... if we could we would take you all." Claire whispered gently.

Bill smiled at Unity "I meant no harm dear." he whispered softly and them smiled at her then he looked down at the book "Oh my..." Bill said as he took the book from her hand "The Storm Front, this is a really good story. This looks just like my wife's book." Bill smiled gently and looked Unity in the eyes "We love children... I think it's wonderful you want to be yourself and unique in every way." Bill said gently now with a soft smile. "I've just never seen anyone with pink hair before, where Claire and I live, it's pretty far from the nearest city a big home with no laughter in it." Bill whispered.

Ms. White came in to the room and looked at the children, "I'm very sorry sir but all the children must go to their rooms now!" Ms. white had a look on her face that most children were afraid of, "The owner of the orphanage is coming... Unity, be a doll and take the younger ones to their room, all older children help as." Ms. White looked around and then shuddered "You and your wife are to meet him in the office and now."

The children could all hear heavy scary foot steps, no none of them had ever met the Owner of the Orphanage, nor would any of them want to. The owner hated children and wanted them all gone quickly so he could use this building for other things, but more children kept coming in. The man had sandy brown hair and blue eyes, well only one blue eye as one was covered by an eye patch. The owner had on an entirely black suit with a red tie to match his black shirt he had on. He had heavy breathing and walked down the steps of the attic, clunk,.... clunk... Clunk... went each steep as his keys rattled, he always had more keys around than he needed or than people thought he would need. "CHILDREN IN YOUR ROOMS NOW!!!!!!" The man's voice boomed, and quite oddly it sounded a lot like the whispering voices.

Kain made a face at the yelling of both Ms.White and the owner. "What's up with the people here?" he muttered. He sighed. "I need to go outside.." he mumbled to himself before heading down the hallway. Of course he made sure he wouldnt run into Ms.White or the man... who was the owner... well atl least that's what Ms.White had told them. He walked over to a window he often used to sit outside on a tree branch. The lock was pretty much broken, so it was easy to open from outside and inside.
"Heh... I can just run away right here and now." he said with a small smirk on his face. Then again, even if he did where would he go? At the same time, nobody would even chase after him. Ms.White and the others seemed to hate children. Well we all hated them, so it was fair.
Kain opened the window and looked around. Nobody was around.. good. Too bad the window was a bit old and made noises, but of course he was careful not to make any noise.
Once the window was opened, just enough for him to fit through, he put on foot onto the window sill, reaching out for the nearest tree branch.

Tammy helped Azel and Asel get to their rooms. She decided not to leave theirs though. not with that voice around. She had her own room, so no one would notice she is gone. Azel and Asel kept hugging in the Corner, refusing to move an inch away from each other. Their bond only growing stronger. Tammy watches them both, and then put ear to the door, listening to the noise outside. Apparently, no one was going outside because of this bad storm. The wind isn't moving it at all, and it doesn't look like it will fade in the near future.

Azel and Asel started dreaming. It was a weird dream, like something haunted their minds. Yet it wasn't dark. They were happy, in a big garden by a house. It was kind of reflecting their personality. And then, something dark did come. A shadow loomed toward them, in the dream. Azel and Asel held hands, and it seemed to keep it away. They hugged, and the shadow retreated. But what did this mean. And not even them knew what it meant when they woke up.

As Azel and Asel slept, Tammy looked out the window and saw Kain going through the window again. She also heard Ms. White coming up the stairs. She would surely see him going through. Tammy opened and closed the door slightly, making a noise that distracted her long enough not to see Kain leave. Tammy opened the window slightly and sad "Your lucky i distracted Ms. White long enough for you to get out Kain" she whispered to him, taking comfort that Ms. White past their room during this and therefore, did not know where the noise came from, and that she couldn't hear her.

Unity helped the rest of the little kids to there rooms like Ms White told her to. She didn’t care if Mr. boss man was there or not, she didn’t show him any more respect then she would a rat. Making it the room Juliana plopped on her bed and smiled.
