Idris hummed as she made her way through the familiar city of Pogtopia, pushing open a cafe door the little bell rang, signaling her arrival.227Please respect copyright.PENANAMtmrS3AC3a
She ignored it and waited in the small line, eyeing the sign and menu choosing her coffee of choice. The one she always got. Chai tea latte.227Please respect copyright.PENANAPXCyaBq6R5
When she was up, she fumbled over her wallet and looked down at the worker, their eyes meeting she froze. 227Please respect copyright.PENANALbPTazOYIg
He stared in awe, his brown hair to his shoulders and disheveled as he wore a tattered and stained apron, a sweater and jeans underneath, his eyes a dark forest green. 227Please respect copyright.PENANA8XIrkxxtWl
He smiled nervously, she got this alot, especially with her height. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAZsGzzSdpJK
She returned the smile and ordered handing him her money, he accepted it with a brush of their fingers. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAvCB3rihrG7
He blushed, she was gorgeous. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAmVSHPsjdmD
Not only did her black hair fall in strands perfectly but even with the hybrid-like skin she had, it was obvious she was an endperson. And her eyes…they were beyond entrancing. He looked at the name he’d written on her cup, and turned to one of the machines to get to work on her drink. A coworker stopped and poked him in the side with a smirk. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAy5FZBlFBxD
“Don’t get a crush she’ll reject you. She doesn’t do relationships.” He purred, His eyes widened. So she was a regular? I guess he wouldn’t know that since it’s his first day huh. 227Please respect copyright.PENANA7NuunTYa0m
“Who is she?” he asked. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAATn9TCkXDj
His coworker shrugged, and ran fingers through his hair as he took someone's order. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAOtAZAxJkH4
“Lotta rumors bought that one. Heard she's a god's daughter, and apparently the duck that runs Las Nevadas is her father. It’s an odd combo. But there's also rumors that she’s the devil of the end. She does look similar to the queen Endorria, it’s possible she’s a reincarnation of her.” he rambled on, The boy glanced back at the girl who was sitting by a window reading a book. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAi49qH3u825
“Huh…” 227Please respect copyright.PENANAlbc3uhiC3S
His coworker leaned back to look at him. “I’m serious though, avoid her. People say she’s dangerous” he finished, it went silent as he finished making her coffee and turned to call her name. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAIPSan8LwvI
She looked over and he jolted, smiled and waved gently. She returned the smile, absolutely blowing him away. She was truly a gorgeous sight to see as she made her way over and took the drink gently.227Please respect copyright.PENANAi8hcYn6zwi
“Thank you” she spoke softly, he shivered.227Please respect copyright.PENANAb9mOLLOI7J
“Have a nice day” he responded, she nodded and walked away. Her tail swishing back and forth behind her as she left the cafe building, he watched as she vanished. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAs5HC1Fd181
“Yo! Slivester! You're on cash register again!” 227Please respect copyright.PENANAsuaOj1FtRx
He sighed and greeted a customer. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAuUKGWKM2Xx
227Please respect copyright.PENANAF6ky2t0tLx
“C’mon Wil, when are you going to take me to the city?” Idris whined, Wilbur rolled his eyes as he flipped an egg into the air and back into a pan. This time not frying it black. 227Please respect copyright.PENANABvuoavv8eu
“Someday Idris.” 227Please respect copyright.PENANAbvLLDLA1P3
She groaned and finished her coffee, flopping onto the table dramatically. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAMpmG30QjWg
“How about you and dad? What's going on between you two?” she questioned, he shivered and sat down handing her her plate of eggs. She grinned as he joined her at the table.227Please respect copyright.PENANAiFz8Gx7WsT
“That's a difficult question to answer” 227Please respect copyright.PENANANe7bHN3beX
She scowled midbite. 227Please respect copyright.PENANA2yvtAuT9BW
“Just tell me. I’m not entirely stupid.” she spoke, Wilbur sighed and flicked a crumb off char at her. She glared. “Tell meeeee” she whined, he groaned.227Please respect copyright.PENANA5riLeCdjEi
“Fine. we’re…together. Of sorts.” 227Please respect copyright.PENANASjfnMRgw6m
She blinked. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAxfANZGZhxk
“So like, you, dad and papaw?” 227Please respect copyright.PENANA8jImVNuwxF
He nodded and it went dead silent, Wilbur shifted uncomfortably.227Please respect copyright.PENANA5CxCVoUqtb
“Cool, when's the wedding?” she teased, Wilbur’s face flushed red. 227Please respect copyright.PENANANyY8vSr9qG
“W-what! There's no wedding!” 227Please respect copyright.PENANAafDtdK69By
She laughed as she chewed her eggs and Quackity joined them in the kitchen. “What wedding?” he asked, She smirked. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAHw7E5r5iol
“Your guys’” she said simply, Quackity dropped a plate and caught it, his face red with embarrassment as he glared at Wilbur. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAtzIOR74rKv
“What the hell.” he hissed, Wilbur shrunk and Idris smirked.227Please respect copyright.PENANAeleUXU6DIr
“You guys really are down bad.” she chuckled, they shot a look at Idris. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAOz5eUHUJpD
“Yeah? Well, what about you? When are you gonna go on a date?” Quackity snapped, she stiffened. Suddenly uncomfortable, she frowned. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAzX91igcrwh
“Never.” she spoke in between bites, they looked at her and stared “especially if Wil won’t take me to the city.” she complained, Wilbur groaned. 227Please respect copyright.PENANApepw74WGnf
“What city?” 227Please respect copyright.PENANANB5xdHRw7F
“Nothing. There are plenty of people here in the Essempii.” Wilbur pleaded, she rolled her eyes. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAiEmDlfc4jX
“You mean plenty of toxic people in Pogtopia.” 227Please respect copyright.PENANAruup0MjOFB
Quackity watched the altercation before he sighed. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAJlkPAjhiIO
“What city?” 227Please respect copyright.PENANAm1ViTV9dNt
“The city of gods.” Idris said glaring at Wil, Quackity blinked. 227Please respect copyright.PENANA0KtXwn48au
“City of gods….? You mean the one above the clouds?” he questioned, Idris nodded and Quackity frowned. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAdUiW4mGMp0
“You have to have-” “SHHHH” Wilbur aggressively shushed him and Q raised an eyebrow. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAa7HakhRu5f
“Have to have what?” 227Please respect copyright.PENANAclW6dZJ7DB
“Hold on a moment.” Wilbur stated dragging Quackity from the room. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAFN5xknL5BH
Quackity placed his hands on his hips like a disappointed mother. “Why can’t she know?” he questioned, Wilbur frowned.
“She could get dangerous if she has powers Q…” 227Please respect copyright.PENANAu3yYb0HVJ4
Quackity rubbed his temples. “She’s 16. Wil, almost 17 in a few days. She needs to learn. If she doesn't she’ll learn on her own volition and yes, become dangerous.” he explained. 227Please respect copyright.PENANA5Vfxv73kBA
Wilbur frowned, “but what about the gods. They’ll know about her origins…someone is bound to tell her.” he spoke, Quackity frowned. He was right...someone would tell her.227Please respect copyright.PENANAD9mgPVqYzA
“Distract her with magic lessons.” 227Please respect copyright.PENANAl0kVzSF3j1
Wilbur sighed. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAHsokroYbla
“Fine.” 227Please respect copyright.PENANAW2MpSB9PfX
Quackity smiled and hesitated but kissed Wil’s cheek and left the room, Wilbur smiled softly and made his way back into the kitchen where Idris was standing, her arms crossed. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAiG9ZjpjFPV
“Mind explaining what that was about?” she snapped, her eyes narrowed. She was done with his shit he could tell. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAKox10kblLD
Wilbur frowned. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAKA9VoIHodO
“You have to have a god like magic to enter the city of the gods. So I can't take you and I don't even know if you have magic.” he explained, her eyes softened.227Please respect copyright.PENANAimQ1OhLCPU
“Oh…” 227Please respect copyright.PENANA00sWAuslpT
“but…Soul has some lower grade spell books from when he was still learning in the library if you want to experiment.” he said, her eyes lit up and she hugged Wil tight.227Please respect copyright.PENANAyQxhFTeaEC
“Thanks Père” she smiled before running off, Wil’s eyes widened at the words. A smile crossed his lips and he chuckled. 227Please respect copyright.PENANA1zDctMRoYL
“Père…”227Please respect copyright.PENANAkPIsL0DxP2
Idris pushed into the library and looked around, it wasn’t small but it wasn’t large either, and it was dimly lit with a fireplace, chairs and a couch. She smiled and looked around. It’d take a while to find the specific books since Wil didn’t know exactly where they were. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAvHtO1lrWqF
Fingers snapped and an orb floated near her head before shining upon a book, she stumbled back and then grabbed it with a smile looking at the orb. A fae. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAl4bi0xlwnp
“Find what you’re looking for?” 227Please respect copyright.PENANAGQDWyx2mGf
She spun on her heel to see Soul, she giggled and ran at him for a hug. Soul smiled and held her close. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAAzel17TBgH
“Welcome home dad” she grinned. The blue haired male chuckled, he was starting to get some stubble on his chin. Idris pushed some hair behind her ear and Soul hummed pointing at the book she’d pulled from the shelf. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAvkJMDI3qyJ
“Now this, I can help teach you.” he smiled. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAreWVn7mFwG
She grinned. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAzcEAENQbXr
227Please respect copyright.PENANAaNFmMsBxoJ
It had been a tiring two weeks of learning, going to the cafe every day to get her fuel and then eating breakfast with Wil and then going out to learn magic with Soul. This time, Soul had left her on her own. 227Please respect copyright.PENANACs7a64Boca
She sighed shakily, she was nervous but she had to practice. 227Please respect copyright.PENANA8w3SEMloQP
She closed her eyes, the sounds of birds and animals putting her to peace as she felt warmth fill the palm of her hand. She opened her fist and her eyes and grinned at the brilliance of the flame, and when she threw it near the target it shifted into a beautiful phoenix and hit the target on a bullseye, bursting into a dark shimmer. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAsyhTiibrsl
She laughed and jumped up and down. Fire magic was the first thing Soul taught her, next it’d be water. She smiled and opened her book reading lightly before dipping her hand into the pond next to her to relax, only for it to sting. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAhbb7KU9naH
She yelped and yanked her hand from the water staring at it as the pain spread, her eyes watered as she held it close trembling. Just as the water started to turn toxic to her blood, her eyes slowly shutting someone had grabbed her hand and the feeling of pain vanished. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAK3tmPJgCm4
Idris opened her eyes to see the cafe worker moving his hands oh so elegantly, pulling water from her skin in droplets. She stared in awe as he then warped the droplets into a large water bubble, handing it to a water pixie. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAChdgSKSL5U
He smiled at Idris. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAvm1mPBXNfL
“You know for someone who’s an endperson you’d think you wouldn’t touch water…” he chuckled lightly, glancing at the spellbook against her chest as she stood and stumbled away from him. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAtfPhyV6d3Y
“Endperson? What are you talking about?” 227Please respect copyright.PENANA1QkYg1TV5x
His eyes softened in worry and he frowned “you don’t know your own culture?” he asked, she shook her head. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAGNrjVrtxFl
He was right though, she knew nothing. Soul wouldn’t say anything about her culture, neither would Quackity or Wil…she frowned.227Please respect copyright.PENANAL5ZnDpsX8G
“An endperson is someone like you…born from darker means, with hybrid-like features and, water is toxic to your kind.” he spoke. “Your parents were probably endperson and human if i took a guess” he smiled gesturing to her, she glanced at her skin. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAViEaXr4txD
“My parents are all avians…and a god…” she mumbled, he stared. He knew where this was going. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAKmtFrIPp12
“Someones lying to you then…” 227Please respect copyright.PENANAB7dZUz8TC8
It was silent for a few moments as Idris inspected the target before looking at the boy. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAKCR0pVbqoh
“Who are you?” 227Please respect copyright.PENANAVQRjwhCoNQ
He blinked as a water pixie handed him a small jar of some kind of liquid. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAUu8hz8kojZ
“That's what I should be asking you, I came out here for my own reasons and found you on the brink of death. So I guess that makes me..your hero.” 227Please respect copyright.PENANARmpi0kMm6o
Idris rolled her eyes and scoffed. 227Please respect copyright.PENANA1U5W4dFJPf
“Hero? Hardly.” 227Please respect copyright.PENANAbIOimW3ANa
His eyes widened as she spread large dragon-like wings and pushed down, shooting upwards into the sky like a rocket. A devil reincarnation…227Please respect copyright.PENANAxQDoNM5fpw
Sliv held his vial of Ghast Tears close and watched as she spun out of her small cocoon and glided away, he chuckled eyeing the target. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAATeBpfa91w
She must be in magic training. 227Please respect copyright.PENANARMdHKKYGgR
227Please respect copyright.PENANAMvyNNJF00f
“Dad..” 227Please respect copyright.PENANAaACxWC3BmR
Soul looked up from his papers in Idris’s direction as she sat swinging her legs on a rafter. She sighed laying back on the rafter with one of her legs dangling. 227Please respect copyright.PENANA75zSLPxpWV
“If I asked you something would you answer it honestly?” she questioned, Soul frowned. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAjRJB4rEF6V
“Of course.” it went silent and Idris stuttered over her words. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAnWkLKpeJt6
“Are you guys my real parents?” the words Slivester had said were still echoing in her mind, echoing so much it sounded like a voice in her mind. Something telling her she was being lied to. Soul’s papers shuffled and she glanced down at him as he stood to grab something. “Dad?” she questioned, he waved off the question and pulled a jewel from his desk as she lowered herself from the high ceilings he tossed it to her. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAZw8toihrpb
“Belonged to your mother.” 227Please respect copyright.PENANA7WzmX1Rvcf
She stared at the emerald, a brilliant green that shone in every direction it was turned. “It held her magic so she wouldn't go absolute bonkers.” he sighed sitting back down, she looked to Soul.227Please respect copyright.PENANAJ7YVQStXOF
“What happened to her?” 227Please respect copyright.PENANAKDKQuZVeIZ
“She died. So did your father.” he frowned, holding no emotion towards the two. He must've known them if he had their belongings. 227Please respect copyright.PENANARw6nfpVmmt
“Did you know them?” 227Please respect copyright.PENANAJ6M4UrfNIm
He hesitated but responded. “No.” he lied, she shivered. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAr8GkBpIPHY
“You’re lying…” she mumbled in disbelief, he froze. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAAPOyPlWUoY
“Idris…”227Please respect copyright.PENANAYtBH9ziMX4
Idris scowled and stuffed the jewel into her pocket. “You’re lying to me. How did they die?” she snapped, Soul sighed. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAxE6vWTWl0a
“Murder.” 227Please respect copyright.PENANAhaNJyJ6Rdr
Her eyes widened as she watched Soul soften and shift away from her, the one person he could see was her and only her. For the last 16 years he was blind to everyone but her, a curse. 227Please respect copyright.PENANA7UyS5d3eqb
Idris’s eyes narrowed. 227Please respect copyright.PENANA3dMV5dNkJ1
“Karma hurts doesn’t it…” she hissed before flying off, Soul’s eyes widened. She knew. She was way too intelligent for her own good, she could hurt herself…or others. Shit. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAq6gWMZfUSs
His vision…227Please respect copyright.PENANAp7TNYA0kzd
He scowled. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAVPyUlc74ml
A curse inflicted upon by time after he killed them, the true thing he gave away when he opened his domain…was his ability to truly love. His emotions were ultimately fucked. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAXYDkBLnh4N
He stood and flicked his wrist, a long golden like bow appearing as he loosed it and shot it off into the sky, the arrow twirled and then turned into a crow. A message of bad energy. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAQRk9PTdtu4
Idris was now officially dangerous.
Idris landed on the ground, people moving out of her way as she stormed into the cafe gracefully. Liam looked up from the register with wide eyes before she grabbed Sliv and replaced him running off, Idris frowned. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAc9kJq4WfMv
“Can we talk?” she whispered. People stared and he nodded. 227Please respect copyright.PENANA2ogGdIJxHW
He took off his apron and tossed it to Liam. “clock me out” he called as Idris grabbed him by the arm and pulled him out of the cafe. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAvCc7OjCO6O
She spread her wings and his eyes widened in horror “wai- i don't like height!” he called as she pulled him close and they shot up into the sky. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAFZK63bKXVE
His heart dropped and he stiffened in horror, eventually the flight smoothed out and Idris sighed, landing on a mountain that just showed the most beautiful part of the sky. 227Please respect copyright.PENANANVyQ3NZrwF
Sliv stumbled from her grasp and grabbed onto a bench vomiting onto the ground, Idris wrinkled her nose in disgust. “Gross. You’re gonna have to get used to that.” she stated. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAlV5CI652RW
He froze, “get used to it? Why did you even bring me up here?” he asked, she frowned and sat on the bench looking down at the large crater, and abandoned city. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAPApAlVRv0J
“You were right about my family lying…” 227Please respect copyright.PENANACW2XxHJbP7
Sliv froze.227Please respect copyright.PENANAmcYOSIJnBv
“oh- “227Please respect copyright.PENANACaU1CtvwQ8
“I ran…and I don't have a place to go. I don’t want to stay with a murderer…” she mumbled, Sliv blinked. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAXpEdOC0aY4
“Your dad murdered your parents?” 227Please respect copyright.PENANAh67OBw8shp
Idris shrugged. 227Please respect copyright.PENANA1afBzCYxfK
“Assuming so.” 227Please respect copyright.PENANArskTCsAp7F
He sighed and sat down on the bench with her. “Well…even though I barely know you I think I know a place you can live. Or stay” he smiled. Her eyes lit up. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAmYQ48jfksy
“Really?” 227Please respect copyright.PENANA6gBMu5diH0
He nodded. “Also, my name's Slivester. You can call me Sliv though” he grinned, she smiled gently. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAKZnhArzUU0
“Idris.” 227Please respect copyright.PENANAV83sLB19Df
He nodded. “And if you’d like~” he gently shoved her shoulder “I could help you finish learning your magic?” he suggested, her small smile turned into a full on beam. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAr6anaUK7Ti
They could already feel the pull of fate, whether it was platonic or not. They were destined to be there for each other. 227Please respect copyright.PENANAta3KJxhqni
