Sozinta stopped at the door way, and turned around snickering. "Nice one. It's a started at least." She said, actually refraining from laughing.

He still glared. "whatever..."

"Ah, come on. It's nice to find a male who doesn't try to play fearless about something, as stupid as it is!" Sozinta said, ducking into the house, laughing a bit.

He blinked, and considered that, then followed her in. He had never been like that, so he didnt know if it was a big deal or something. If he was afraid he was going to show it. It didnt mean he was going to run from it if he was afraid. Only wimpy men did that. But he wasnt stupid enough to act like he was never afraid of anything.

Sozinta, not really slowing down, at that moment manage to trip her self, landing face first against part of the wall. She yelped, and got back up sitting dazed. "Ow..." She muttered, and blinked, "Well, that's one way to start one's 'after noon'... " She said.

He hurried over, ever a gentleman, and helped her up. "Are you alright!?" he asked, checking her face for bruises. She had just face-walled, after all.

Her nose and forehead are starting to get a bruise, but it isn't anything too serious. "I'm fine, I'm fine... " She said, rubbing her nose a bit.

"No you aren't, you're hurt." he said, gently touching her face, feeling for serious injury.

t becomes apparent after that her nose may be broken, although, knowing the way she is, it may have been broken in the past. She winced noticeably when he started feeling for injury, but she didn't say anything about being hurt.

He frowned and popped the nose right back into place without warning. "You really should let me fix your nose up."

Sozinta yelped and glared at him, "Hey, that hurt!" She said, wincing, "I've broken it before... I would have done it... " She said, refraining from the instinct to grab hold of her nose.

"No you wouldn't have." he said, straight faced. "You would've left it just as it was."

Sozinta sighed, "Hey, do you think I'm a child or something..? I'd have fixed it! Watch!" She said holding out her arm, it popping out and back into place with sickening pops. "I do it all the time. Personally the 'spine' hurts worse!" She said, then paused realized she wasn't proving her point of being mature enough to do it. "I'm not human, even if my structure looks human, I"m compressed, I can literally force my self to break my 'spine' three times and still be okay. Which is actually my set of non-connecting vertebrae clicking together, which is more like snapping... " She said.

He just stared at her, not caring. "You wouldn't have fixed it and you are digging your own hole here."

Sozinta paused again, "I really would have though... " She said, scratching the back of her head, "Really... Dammit, if only I had kept those smoke bombs!" She said.

He crossed his arms like a dissaproving parent. "No, you wouldn't have." indeed, he actually had been a dissapproving parent back in his time.

"Hey, you can't do that! You can't act like your older than me!" Sozinta said, and then sighed, all of her humor fading, "Jeez, I know that I would have had to fix my nose, and I would have. But I just hit a wall with my face. You could have given me a minute."

"No. And I will continue to act older so long as you continue to act younger."

Suddenly this down right evil look came across Sozinta's face. "Alright, if that's how you want to play it..." she said, turning from Levana for a moment. She turned back towards him with this almost childish look, "But big brother, I really was!" She said with the kiddish voice and eyes.

"I still don't believe you, Isabella. You know i'm right." he said, and then stopped. For a minute he'd thought she was his actual little sister, and now he froze up.

Sozinta blinked and then gave him a look, somewhat triumphant, but somewhat wondering, "Isabella?" She asked.

"... None of your f-cking business." he snapped, and shoved past her, with force, rushing outside. Tears were streaming down his face like a waterfall.

Sozinta blinked, starring after him. She sighed and sat down with her back against the wall, her eyes on the floor. "Dammit... " She muttered to herself.

He went outside and leaned against a tree, sobbing. It wasn't just the fact that there was no chance his sister was alive, it was that... He had killed her. He couldn't believe that this had followed him. He couldn't believe this was ressurfacing after all. This. Time. He had a horrible flashback...
A girl with waist length, glossy black hair, a bright, sharp face, and big green eyes stood across from him, holding the thin sword carefully, as usual, with a lying gentleness. Her lips were curled up knowingly. They had been practicing swordplay, as usual, brother and sister, nothing out of the ordinary. She was surprisingly strong, for her thin frame, and made a great sparring partner. "Well come now, brother. You know I can handle it. I always can." her light voice said, grinning. Levana laughed. "If you say so, sister." he said, and twirled his own broadsword. He lunged, and they parried back and forth for a bit. Then suddenly, Isabella's eyes went wide, and she tipped forwards, having tripped on the hem of her skirt as it slipped down a bit, loose from a ripped seam she had failed to notice. Levana reacted too slow, and before either of them knew what had happened, she was impaled on his blade, through the heart, somehow having had the blade slip right through her ribs. She stared up at Levana as she slipped to her knees, red pooling out, staining all down her torso at a terrifying pace. She slowly slumpped down, and fell dead. Levana dropped the sword, having been too startled to move, and collapsed next to his sister's body, wailing.

Sozinta just sat where she was, her back against the wall and her eyes staring at the floor.

Now, back in the current time, Levana punched the tree, over and over. He still didn't forgive himself. He never would. Ever. It was his fault.
All.
His.
Fault.

Sozinta got up and headed outside, she looked over at him with her eyes darkened. "I don't know what happened, and I won't ask. But what ever happened, just, know that it wasn't your fault." She said, and then she walked back inside.

OOC: I am home. I got my laptop. I watched the Homestuck updates. Holy f-ck. That. Was. AWESOME!!! More ships shall happen! Wwwwooooooowwww! So awesome!

He heard her, but he just kept sobbing. It hurt too much.

ooc: Cool.
--

Sozinta came back outside, setting a heavy looking barrel on porch, leaving a mug on it. She left a note on the barrel, but walked back inside without saying anything to Levana.

OOC: *spazzing the f-ck out* \^o^/ So happy!

He eventually stopped crying, and leaned his forehead against the tree, nose stopped up and face a mess. He sighed heavily, and wiped his face. He had to get his act the hell together. He turned to go back in, and saw the barrel. He walked over and picked the note up, curious.

The note read the following, " 'Dear Levana,
I'm not really good with cheering people up, and you can see that that really worked out for me with the whole 'little sister' bit of mine. But, I've left you an entire barrel of the best anti-depressant I've ever had: Ale. Drink up, you'll feel better. ' "
There was a mug and everything. Sozinta was visible inside, sitting on the couch and looking through some book.

He looked inside, pulled out a pencil, and wrote in big letters on the other side. Then he knocked on the window.

Sozinta blinked and looked up at the window.

He held up the paper.
'I DON'T DRINK WHEN DEPRESSED I ALMOST KILLED MYSELF DOING THAT'

Sozinta sighed,and continued to look through the book, "How was I supposed to know?" She said.

He shrugged and went back to the rock to train.

Sozinta walked outside, and sat down to eatch, actually getting a mug full of the barrel's contents.

He just kept beating the sh-t out of the rock.

And she continued to watch.

He punched the rock again and it split entirely in half. "F- f-ck..." he muttered, sweating, hands pulsing with bright light from his Chi.

Sozinta went inside, return with some cold drink, which she held out for Levana.

He took it, and nodded. "Thanks." he said, wiping sweat off of his face first.

Sozinta nodded, "Your welcome." She said, returning to sitting on the porch.

He chugged it, and sighed, staring at the broken rock...

"What's wrong?" Sozinta asked, glancing at it from where she was sitting.

"... Nothing..." he said, obviously not okay.

"Don't lie to an alien older than your planet." Sozinta said, rather bluntly, "What's wrong, Levana?"

"..."
He sighed, and then explained what had happened.

ooc: I'll assume he means with his sister.
--

Sozinta took a few seconds to truly process it, and then she sighed, "Listen, what happened with you sister... it wasn't your fault, and it wasn't hers... there isn't anyone to blame, so don't blame yourself."

Ooc: yup.

He was silent, and just shrugged, kind of not showing any emotion at all, face blank.
