Fallen Snow (open)

[Adalynn Mae Shimura]

Adalynn didn't like the winter. It was horribly cold and it killed everything she loved. To have the winter come early while it was still suppose to be Autumn was even worse. It would take a while for her to get use to the climate of Norway compared to the amazingly warm climate of Australia. She couldn't believe there was snow in the beginning of November. She wished she was still in France instead of at Durmstrang in Norway...at least in France it wasn't snowing yet and the only annoyance was the falling leaves of Autumn. She sighed as she pulled on some blue jeans, wishing she was putting on short instead. She pulled on her snow boots that looked like rabbit fur and came to her knees. She then put on a winter cloak over her white sweater, the cloak itself was also white and had the rabbit fur on the inside as well...She hated being locked in doors because of the barren weather outside.

She began her journey from the Sjenert Katt house without seeing anyone in the common room. Most had probably decided to sleep in since it was Saturday and there wasn't many classes held except for a few advanced ones during the evening...She made her way down to the ground floor without passing anyone. The castle seemed to be as quiet as the winter world that had fallen outside around them....She opened the large doors that led to school grounds and stepped out into the world of white.

She took a few feet into the snow..letting her snow boots sink into the foot of snow that had fallen over the night....the sun was still rising in the sky. It was probably no later than eleven am and the world didn't seem to be ready to wake up yet. More snow was falling now...and she looked up at it curiously as it landed on her face leaving cold droplets on her skin. She was still getting use to snow since she had grown up in Australia he entire life and had only seen snow since she had started school a few years before at Beuxbatons. She was a fourth year now and Durmstrang was now her home whether she liked it or not...and apparently that meant an early appearance of winter.

She decided she might as well make the most of it as she raised her hands up to the sky and looked up at the falling snow...letting it fall on her face and sending cold chills down her body. She smiled up at the sky before taking off running into the snow....she didn't pass anyone that she knew of as she went farther across the grounds. She looked back up at the school behind her which seemed to be covered in snow itself and gave a smirk at how nice it looked when the snow covered it....he foot hit something and she felt herself do a sommersalt in the air before landing on her back in the snow. She laid staring up at the sky in shock for a moment before realizing that she had tripped over someone laying in the snow...I'm so sorry. She said as she sat up to see who she had tripped over.

[Shane Bradley Dorsal]

Shane hated beyond hated the cold. He would rather spend a summer in 118 degree weather than be stuck in the snow, and cold winter of Norway. Shane was bundled up head to toe. Of course, he had on jeans and a sweatshirt, but then he was covered in another sweatshirt. He wored sneakers that really weren't keeping out the cold. Well, maybe he wasn't all bundled up...he felt like it though. Shane didn't own any other warm clothes. He had shivered as he headed out of the Enkelt Kanin common room. Shane downright hated Durmstrang. Hogwarts was much more his cup of tea, but it was what it was, and he had screwed up too many times for anyone to allow him to stay there.

So there he was, cold as hell, heading down to....somewhere. Eventually he found a nice place to just sit. First Shane sat down, feeling the weight of the world on his shoudlers, then he laid down staring at the greying sky above him. In no time there was another student heading his way. He couldn't help but sit up on his elbows and look at the girl. He hadn't seen her before and Shane looked around to see if she was by herself or with anyone. The girl was pretty, that was sure, and she seemed to be out for a walk, similar to him.

Shane grinned as the girl raised her hands to the sky and seemed to envelope the snow. Then, out of nowhere, she started running! Shane nearly laughed, but stifled it as he continued watching her. It was inevitable. She was going to trip over him. Of course, Shane let it happen, watching her do a sommersault in the air and land on her back. His eyes went wide, although a grin still played on his lips. "Dude, I don't think you do that again if you tried!" he said, looking at her face up near him on the ground. She had incredibly blonde hair and she seemed completely stunned about her fall. "Was that fun? The sommersault? Man, if I could do that, I totally would. I don't even know how you did that!" he said, laughing and shaking his head. Eventually his smile and laughter died and he looked at the girl with a shrug. "I'm Shane. Complete Muggleborn and Enkelt Kanin. Now, if you're going to throw a punch or a curse, I suggest doing it with my back turned. Better chances that way," he said the last part as a whisper to her as if anyone else would hear. "Otherwise, feel free to hang out." Shane was used to being picked on and tortured at Durmstrang, however, he really could'nt see this girl attacking him. Just didn't seem the type.

[Adalynn Mae Shimura]

As she sat up and met his eyes she couldn't help but blush slightly. He was older than she was but she couldn't help but blushing at how cute the boy was. She had just tripped over probably the cutest boy she had seen at the school so far and it made her slightly nervous as she listened to him speak, Oh no, your probably right...I'm surprised I managed that the first time. She said softly as she looked at the ground nervously. Well yes I suppose it was kinda fun. She said with a small smile as she looked up. She couldn't help but feel embarrassed, she had managed to trip and make a fool of herself in front of such a cutie. When he stop laughing finally and introduced himself she gave him a confused half smile. Why would I ever harm you? That sounds absolutely dreadful...I would never harm someone....uh What's a muggleborn? She asked softly in confusion, It's nice to meet you Shane. She said with a nervous look into his eyes, My name is Adalynn Mae Shimura, I just transferred her from Beuxbaton's today...but no I'm not French, I'm Australian. And I'm not a witch by the way...I'm a fairy. She said with a small smirk. She didn't like lying...she was always truthful whether people liked it or not.

[Shane Bradley Dorsal]

Shane smiled as Adalyn talked. She seemed so...mild, pure. It fit her, to be out in the pure white snow and her being so much like it. She did indeed have an accent that could very well be Australian. The fact that she came from Beauxbatons struck him. Well, maybe the girls at that school didn't have as many political problems as Durmstrang...Adalynn had no idea waht a Muggleborn was. That was interesting. "Er...Muggleborn? It's...obviously not important for our conversation, now is it?"

[/color] He grinned and shrugged, hoping that that was enough to satisfy her for the time being. THe more time she spent at Durmstrang, she'd figure it out and Shane wasn't goign to be the one to break this girl's heart with the hatred that loomed over their school.

A fairy? Shane grinned, and scoffed alittle. More like a tiny laugh, but it did imply that he did'nt believe her. HOw can a person be part fairy? It just wasn't heard of....well, he'd never heard of it anyway. "A fairy? You do'nt have wings, or you certainly wouldn't have fallen down like that. And...if you're a fairy....aren't they very very tiny, like a bug? How'd you get so big? And not to mention...how'd you get made?"[/color] They were all reasonable questions, so Shane thought. He didn't ask them in a snotty way, he was really just rambling off a bunch of questions that had been in his head since Adalynn said she was a fairy. Even though he didn't believe her, she had to be something, because she was very pretty and very pure looking and that was all Shane needed to want to continue talking to her. And the idea that she did'nt want to hurt him...that made all the difference.[/blockquote][/size]

[Adalynn Mae Shimura]

I'm not really sure if it is or not? I mean if you don't tell me what it is....then I will never be able to decide for myself whether it was in fact important for out conversation right? She said with a sweet smile, You know...I've heard the word used before but never dared to question what it meant? I suppose I should of right? Then I would understand what you meant when you called yourself one. she folded her knees underneath her and sat on her legs in the snow. The cold didn't bother her at all really so it was kinda nice...

It kinda saddened her that he didn't believe her...but she was silent as he questioned her...It saddens me that you don't believe me Shane... I don't believe in lying. You must of had many people lie to you to be so certain I am lying to you now...Let's see you first question where are my wings you ask? Well I really don't want to rip my outfit by letting them out but if you insist in it I will....I must hide them at school...because well, how else would I manage to get anything done? You humans would be gawking at me so much I would never get school work done. Since I have to hide them and keep them all locked beneath my skin it also means my balance is kinda off....and tiny? You think all fairies must be tiny? Well then...I guess you've never heard of the Fae, huh? My people...are well my size obviously...I'm only four foot eight...I won't grow any taller unfortunately....and how did I get made? Well Shane...I'm not sure I'm the right person to discuss the birds and the bees with you. She said with her cheeks turning red....

[Shane Bradley Dorsal]

Shane nodded as Adalynn talked about Muggles and Muggleborns. He hated the term. It was really very stupid, especially since he'd grown up as a Muggle. Muggles meant nothing to him; the term was stupid and unneeded. They were all humans, all magical humans. Life would be amazing if there wasn't the stupid divide between, what, breeds? Stupid. "A Muggleborn....hm....definitely someone with dark hair. Wait, wait...that's not right....oh! I remember...it's someone with amazing wit and humor.....mm..no. Maybe it's someone born of unmagical parents...I really don't remember, I just don't the teachers are very mean and sometimes abusive because of it." Shane lied through his teeth only to tell the truth in the end.

Shane grinned as Adalynn mentioned the wings. So she believed she had wings? What kind of girl did he find out in the middle of a snowy day? He decided to leave that topic as she blushed concerning the birds and the bees. "Ah, I know how we're all made. One stupid act of greed, or lust, or self centeredness....don't tell me love was part of it, because that's a load of crap. Love doesn't exist. It's just a means of getting what you want and putting a name to it."

[/color] He said, shrugging off the topic and starting to build a snow castle in the snow in front of him. Shane was convinced that his parents had either been drunk, high, or completely out of control. It was clear to him that he was unwanted, so he couldn't fathom love being a part of it. The boy had never been loved by anyone in his life. "It's the way it is. That's what makes the world go 'round."[/color][/blockquote][/size]

[Adalynn Mae Shimura]

Adalynn couldn't help but giggle at Shane as he basically described himself but her giggles dies slightly as she mentioned the abuse the Professors gave to people of the term Muggleborn. Mean and abusive because of something someone is? That's dreadful...you should never condemn someone for what they are...it's not their fault and to me this sounds just plain dumb. She said biting her lip when she said dumb...she hated using such words but the situation defiantly seemed to call for it.

His next words made her frown slightly, An act of greed? Of lust? And of being self center? Is that what you've been taught? What rubbish... She said firmly...My people do not make love to such horrible words...we make love to celebrate the joy of togetherness, the feeling of commitment, and the love between two souls....nothing more than that... She said with a very sad look on her face...wherever he had learn such things seemed like such a horrible place...she couldn't help but be slightly depressed for him as she watched him build a snow castle... Shane....I'm sorry someone has made you not believe in love...but only evil makes love because of such evil words...lust...greed...vanity...those are demon emotions...the only time I've ever heard of such things happening to my kind are when some of us were forced into the other world in the days of old and my kind were raped by the demons....my mother was one who was raped by a demon....she bore a son before me, the son of death... She said rubbing her eyes slightly as she felt them get heavy...Kastiel is half demon and fae...a child of rape, lust, greed and vanity on his father's part....sure that sort of thing happens but it shouldn't....My parents made love to each other in an act of commitment, joy of togetherness, and the love between two souls...I was created and I am living proof... She yawned slightly and closed her eyes for a moment...It's so cold out here....Don't you... She said weakly as she closed her eyes and curled up in the snow...she could feel her heart slowing before the realization hit her that she had been out in the cold for much to long....


OOC: I thought it would be fun to use something from her fairy powers....if Adalynn becomes to cold she falls asleep and won't wake up till she is warmed back up...She is now in a very dangerous state...if she gets too cold she may never awake... Let's see what Shane will do!

[Shane Bradley Dorsal]

Shane couldn't helpt but smile slightly as Adalynn nearly scolded him for thinking such awful things about love. Shane just didn't believe in it. His parents were never in love and they just slept together and made him! Even today, Shane was pretty sure they just slept with each other in order to get out desires they really didn't have for each other. Then tehre was his father and Jack's mother, who Shane assumed his father slept with because she was pretty. Shane refused to fall in love if it existed, and wasn't going to be just another person in the world who succumbs to their desires.

As Adalynn finished talking, mentioning the cold, he nodded. It was pretty cold, snow and everything. Not to mention the fact that the girl was sitting in the snow. But then she yawned and..what...fell asleep. Shane watched in amusement as she curled up in the snow and fell asleep. At first, Shane thought it was cute, then odd to fall asleep when in the middle of a conversation with someone, then he started to get scared. The girl just...fell asleep! Asleep? Or dead? Shane looked around for anyone else, and seeing no one, he scooted closer to Adalynn. "Adalynn? Hey...."

[/color] he said, shaking the girl slightly. He was starting to worry as he realized she was breathing, but just barely.

He worried that he'd killed a fairy. Wasn't that like...bad....like breaking a mirror? Bad luck for seven years? Wasn't there some sort of consequence for killing a fairy? Well....maybe the...fairy council?....would let him off easy because he hadn't intentionally killed her....sighing, Shane rolled his eyes and picked up Adalynn. Hadn't she mentioned being cold? So maybe if he got her inside near a fire, or dumped warm water on her or something, she'd wake up. She was really very light as he trudged through the snow toward the castle. He just hoped no one would see him. Then of course they'd blame the Enkelt Kanin student and put him in some dark black box for a week or something. Eventually Shane got Adalynn into the food hall and laid her near the door. Some students gave him dirty and strange looks. He shrugge. "Long night....fell asleep over her books...shoulda seen the drool I cleaned up!"[/color] he thought it was funny...the other students didn't. But he sat next to Adalynn, waiting for the girl to wake up...if she woke up....[/blockquote][/size]

[Adalynn Mae Shimura]

Adalynn's mind drifted into as she fell asleep in the snow...she landed softly in the fields of the greenest grass she had ever seen...the sun was setting in the sky as she looked up at it...She frowned slightly at it..she didn't want the sky to fall dark so soon...She ran towards the sun hoping to catch it in the sky...to stop it from falling around her and leaving her in darkness....She her the sweetest voice calling her name towards the light...and she could feel him around her though she wasn't sure why he was there...she smiled and ran towards the light, a different voice caught her other ear and she turned quickly in the other direction as a laughing voice called out to her....She smiled brightly and jumped over a sleeping unicorn and grinned as her wings exploded from her back and she took flight towards the sky...she could hear the voices calling for her but she kept soaring higher and higher.... She could feel the wisps of clouds as she soared higher and higher into the clouds....She heard a dark voice beside her...and a glimpse of black wings as he circle her in the sky as the sun was almost a memory in the sky now except for a small glimpse of gold near the horizon..She frown as she felt a sharp pain in her back and screamed as she suddenly fell from the sky...she was hurling towards the earth...

She jumped as he eyes snapped open suddenly and she felt the air return to her lungs...She looked wildly around the room and then at the boy sitting beside her...she blushed slightly as she realized how close he was to her...they were touching....she looked nervously in his eyes...Shane? What happened.... she whispered.... she knew her soul hadn't been in this world a moment before..but it was taking her a moment to realize what had happened....

[Shane Bradley Dorsal]

Shane sat there, then got up and got an apple from one of the tables. People were giving him weird and dirty looks left and right, but he just winked, grinned and went back to Adalynn's side, waiting for her ot wake up; if she would indeed wake up. On the outside he looked completely in control and very near laughter, but on the inside, he couldn't help but wonder if what had happened to the girl was his fault. He sighed and sat down, biting into his apple. In moments Adalynn woke up completely startling him and he dropped his apple and watched it roll under a nearby table. He watched it as Adalynn sat up and asked him what had happened.

"Well, that apple was my morning snack and now it's rolled away. You owe me a fruit! What happened? Well, first I fondled you, then some of the other students got upset by that and attacked me. But don't worry, I'm a ninja. I defended us just fine!"

[/color] he lied, and looked at her. He was pretty sure then that she would most likely be offended by his lies and although typically he'd jsut leave it at that and leave her wondering if that was really true or not, he bit his lip and shrugged. =666666]"Well...you fell over and fell asleep. So I brought you in here."[/color] He muttered, looking at her again with maybe a little bit of guilt about the lie. Why did he feel guilty? He never felt guilty after he lied. The lies just poured out of his mouth as easy as typical words. Maybe he felt guilty because dshe didn't deserve to be lied to. [/blockquote][/size]

[Adalynn Mae Shimura]

Adalynn stared at him with confusion as he spoke...fondled her? What did that even mean? She bit on her lip...wondering for a moment on the meaning of the world...for some reason she didn't think it sounded like a good thing. She looked in his eyes as he bit his lip and changed his answer...She wondered slightly if what he had said was meant to be a joke...the ninja thing obviously was...but she had no idea what fondled meant. She frowned slightly as she looked into his eyes...she couldn't help but see the guilt in his eyes...She frowned...I knew better than sitting in the snow... She laughed with a grin, Guess I learned my lesson didn't I? She said grinning at him...She reached up and touched his face softly, I'm sorry about your fruit... She said with a small smile before grabbing his hand and trying to pull him up off the floor...Let's go get you another one shall we? She smiled at him as she tugged at him some more to get up and follow her.

[Shane Bradley Dorsal]

Shane let his jaw drop just slightly as she touched his face. She took his hand and urged him to stand up with her. Of course he did, but it was odd, actually being treated with respect and kindness, something he'd never known his entire life. Sure, his friends sometimes showed compassion, especially those in his house, but typically, people had a hard time accepting him. Adalynn didn't even notice his lies...and if she did, she disregarded them and tended to him, himself, and what he needed. Which was an apple at the moment. She even offered to help him get another apple. What a nice girl.

Shane followed her to a table. "No. That particular apple, was green. I expect one so close to the same, it's undistinguishable! I bet you can't find one. That apple was nearly flawless!"

[/color] So, Shane was making it difficult. He really didn't care. He doubted she really wanted to be spending time with him anyway, and if she didn't want to, she could just leave, telling him there's no apple that matches his needs. "Betcha can't find one, sweetheart. It's a tricky mission I've putyou on."[/color] He looked at the table, and folded his arms over his chest, looking at her. He threw a hand out, indicating sh eshould attempt to find him the perfect apple.[/blockquote][/size]

[Adalynn Mae Shimura]

Adalynn couldn't help but notice the surprise in his eyes an in the way his mouth parted as she touched his cheek...She wondered if slightly if touching the boys cheek was socially acceptable. She really didn't know. In the Fae world it would be...so she would just assume it was...she must of just taken him by surprise, she thought with a grin as she made her way over to the tables with fruit on them...

She couldn't help but give him a sweet smile at his comment about his apple needing to be perfect...he was such a silly boy. She looked over the apple for a moment...Her attention was taken for a moment as she heard him call her sweetheart...she peeked at him with her cheeks slightly flushed...his words made her grin...it wasn't wise to bet with a faery after all...they adored games and winning them even more...Okay then...Let's say I take your bet...what do I get in return? She said tapping his nose with her finger tip...which was kinda hard because he was so much taller than she was..

[Shane Bradley Dorsal]

Shane looked at the table. Even he was having a hard time finding the perfect able just by sight. As he turned to look at her, she reached up and tapped his nose. He raised an eyebrow and then had no idea what to say to that. He cleared his throat and stuttered a bit before answering. "Hm...mmm....well, uh.....You'll get... the...honor of finding the perfect apple?"

[/color] he said in a questioning tone. Shane was next to awful with the girls. He liked them, and he liked talking to them, but when it came to flirting or actually admitting any sort of feelings, Shane was a goon and walked away as fast as he could. However, there was no walking away from Adalynn. He really did want that apple first off, and he also found her...peaceful, and quiet. Different somehow from the other girls. He sat down at the table, looking at her patiently. "Do you think if I close my eyes and wish really hard, an apple will jump into my hand and beg to be eaten?"[/color][/blockquote][/size]

[Adalynn Mae Shimura]

Adalynn couldn't help but how cute he looked when he arched his eyebrow at the way she tapped his nose. She smiled brightly at the way he stuttered when he spoke...he had seemed so bold and full of himself when they met but now, he seemed either shy or taken by surprise. She narrowed her eyes at him with the smile still on her face..That doesn't sound like something I'd want in return. She said with a small laugh...She watched as he sat down on the table and her question made her giggle, Well maybe you should try dear boy...come on close you eyes.. She said with a sweet smile..

She waited patiently for him to close his eyes and took his outreached hand in hers and ran her finger tip across his palm....she thought of the apple tree in the fae world that she loved to sleep in...gorgeous green and juicy apples grew from it...and summoned one of the perfect fruit into his hands, It's not a human apple, so it may be better than the last one...I hope you can handle that. She said with a grin before sitting beside him...
