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.191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaiOAjACn8T
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.191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOnxCVXPb1K
When she was up, she fumbled over her wallet and looked down at the worker, their eyes meeting she froze. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsf0RFPFYkZ
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. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡonm3khEHpk
He smiled nervously, she got this alot, especially with her height. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5z6U9gDvI
She returned the smile and ordered handing him her money, he accepted it with a brush of their fingers. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGy7zxt1VrZ
He blushed, she was gorgeous. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNUH19svQSD
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. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJFTSbgt8d
“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. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡltBvGDhBYP
“Who is she?” he asked. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfUrsOIYTUv
His coworker shrugged, and ran fingers through his hair as he took someone's order. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjggYQxfhAw
“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. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnB42oIhpP2
“Huh…” 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNyUrdWBGfb
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. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC3r3jN8tPp
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.191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1M30diY5IG
“Thank you” she spoke softly, he shivered.191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Yn2wku0Bi
“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. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOE1OizNiDn
“Yo! Slivester! You're on cash register again!” 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvA9PIpqPjX
He sighed and greeted a customer. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm0wA79fnYL
191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDL7Zzq0qsE
“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. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWraXi6lFkF
“Someday Idris.” 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2jsHhlBN80
She groaned and finished her coffee, flopping onto the table dramatically. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLGrprFvG9A
“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.191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTMay3l216S
“That's a difficult question to answer” 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHTVqKRjYSl
She scowled midbite. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwALGWZDxDf
“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.191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0D2yoERNcl
“Fine. we’re…together. Of sorts.” 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuBCthNQRcl
She blinked. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5Jmgd6FJG
“So like, you, dad and papaw?” 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAjHeS0JGTu
He nodded and it went dead silent, Wilbur shifted uncomfortably.191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Wq1t7bobz
“Cool, when's the wedding?” she teased, Wilbur’s face flushed red. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR8zhN4K13k
“W-what! There's no wedding!” 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5SET6GyI4r
She laughed as she chewed her eggs and Quackity joined them in the kitchen. “What wedding?” he asked, She smirked. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjARynpf1iS
“Your guys’” she said simply, Quackity dropped a plate and caught it, his face red with embarrassment as he glared at Wilbur. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHbpkmhq0Bh
“What the hell.” he hissed, Wilbur shrunk and Idris smirked.191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5fKJi7CaJR
“You guys really are down bad.” she chuckled, they shot a look at Idris. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfI1miIICmP
“Yeah? Well, what about you? When are you gonna go on a date?” Quackity snapped, she stiffened. Suddenly uncomfortable, she frowned. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdkzKL4dxOW
“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. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLttOMUu8eY
“What city?” 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYSZW9tAIiU
“Nothing. There are plenty of people here in the Essempii.” Wilbur pleaded, she rolled her eyes. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡToj3sUYMNO
“You mean plenty of toxic people in Pogtopia.” 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7f1QOPXE8M
Quackity watched the altercation before he sighed. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxeMlMS9zUy
“What city?” 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYaPphIhBOA
“The city of gods.” Idris said glaring at Wil, Quackity blinked. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1HeU0OUTXq
“City of gods….? You mean the one above the clouds?” he questioned, Idris nodded and Quackity frowned. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7RLJSDpU9x
“You have to have-” “SHHHH” Wilbur aggressively shushed him and Q raised an eyebrow. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJtz0SaRS0Y
“Have to have what?” 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcGdGMz7XZB
“Hold on a moment.” Wilbur stated dragging Quackity from the room. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6Lq2t4890
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…” 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBCp1abK0UJ
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. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0X67J8silJ
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.191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8zcqKavDzX
“Distract her with magic lessons.” 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡprKg9aoRso
Wilbur sighed. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvEHOQBp8YQ
“Fine.” 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxHLKmBRA9f
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. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFXduB0ncRe
“Mind explaining what that was about?” she snapped, her eyes narrowed. She was done with his shit he could tell. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnumawt4eqZ
Wilbur frowned. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRr5OqiePMG
“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.191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeaV4zivKN3
“Oh…” 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡasYufLAg7k
“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.191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHUeZGZmCJN
“Thanks Père” she smiled before running off, Wil’s eyes widened at the words. A smile crossed his lips and he chuckled. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMkq8EnEJxC
“Père…”191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxs6wqebh5w
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. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPIrl95c72b
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. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHgZBdIB5FJ
“Find what you’re looking for?” 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡydaYetsfDV
She spun on her heel to see Soul, she giggled and ran at him for a hug. Soul smiled and held her close. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZqhhhBbDd
“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. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡipohGvZChX
“Now this, I can help teach you.” he smiled. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsYJPZZZqIU
She grinned. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCW0xulWddo
191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeexPayXHN1
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. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Q6pMfaW5K
She sighed shakily, she was nervous but she had to practice. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf5s4g9Q3on
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. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmuBAvnbp1p
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. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr9bW6ugLKV
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. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl3FQdjdQcO
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. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTxvnHIMxhV
He smiled at Idris. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeMbqByvhn1
“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. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTbr1bh80qh
“Endperson? What are you talking about?” 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr4hdep5o8X
His eyes softened in worry and he frowned “you don’t know your own culture?” he asked, she shook her head. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6mR5bM9Yuv
He was right though, she knew nothing. Soul wouldn’t say anything about her culture, neither would Quackity or Wil…she frowned.191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT2rbtDL7AK
“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. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfXBc115Yww
“My parents are all avians…and a god…” she mumbled, he stared. He knew where this was going. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaH8ET5l5hx
“Someones lying to you then…” 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy6kTHfgNZr
It was silent for a few moments as Idris inspected the target before looking at the boy. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAUdaBHpXFh
“Who are you?” 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQhsxAjmHyM
He blinked as a water pixie handed him a small jar of some kind of liquid. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYDzjEjdSXr
“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.” 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLRNdNda7uE
Idris rolled her eyes and scoffed. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGUio6W7yqR
“Hero? Hardly.” 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEEwthyOLuQ
His eyes widened as she spread large dragon-like wings and pushed down, shooting upwards into the sky like a rocket. A devil reincarnation…191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXOCPPw0TWa
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. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzO1ABLsenv
She must be in magic training. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlFUMDAkaoN
191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0qPt6hzzj
“Dad..” 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXrg5GKobri
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. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA9CbAaJCgb
“If I asked you something would you answer it honestly?” she questioned, Soul frowned. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpZEkys3cIH
“Of course.” it went silent and Idris stuttered over her words. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSY3mU1nMQV
“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. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsilSRr71Vu
“Belonged to your mother.” 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy0Yjk9zs7G
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.191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9e5jF9zzWw
“What happened to her?” 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLiKFQ23lAR
“She died. So did your father.” he frowned, holding no emotion towards the two. He must've known them if he had their belongings. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEZXuKXN0gT
“Did you know them?” 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNy3HBNc2Qp
He hesitated but responded. “No.” he lied, she shivered. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9SZFpuCIe9
“You’re lying…” she mumbled in disbelief, he froze. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2DVsdGj69v
“Idris…”191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8exzPy1IXN
Idris scowled and stuffed the jewel into her pocket. “You’re lying to me. How did they die?” she snapped, Soul sighed. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3vhSEVNowc
“Murder.” 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs9SeYlR3c2
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. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5TTxeu6HYw
Idris’s eyes narrowed. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbZk0xjFz8V
“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. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDuGefEbLHG
His vision…191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPcNSnmxEjG
He scowled. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXpeuAQfLP8
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. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡakgAK2THJk
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. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVK86qAgHx8
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. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDVak0rV5G9
“Can we talk?” she whispered. People stared and he nodded. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1iDlar5uQs
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. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRLDtMDULAu
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. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq2KDmkhmQO
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. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHcagBafB9d
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. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAng7vBurBU
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. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA8zAnN7i4E
“You were right about my family lying…” 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdUieeY7tC9
Sliv froze.191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk0HqstrDnC
“oh- “191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡED9NuTFv1g
“I ran…and I don't have a place to go. I don’t want to stay with a murderer…” she mumbled, Sliv blinked. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIBICx0ID1X
“Your dad murdered your parents?” 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwkYNTa7H5v
Idris shrugged. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt2pJl63MXU
“Assuming so.” 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFQU5lnAZbL
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. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjTkO9CX9hC
“Really?” 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZLzSxF1wTE
He nodded. “Also, my name's Slivester. You can call me Sliv though” he grinned, she smiled gently. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9E0OfhW75T
“Idris.” 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi8q3bLSMC4
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. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5wwQHaq2Rx
They could already feel the pull of fate, whether it was platonic or not. They were destined to be there for each other. 191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNEqVtLJlzn
