Six to: Save? or Slay? (Finished)

In Search!

Quppo paced impatiently across the room...Up the stairs...Into the door that was below the stairs, (which was his room) and almost everywhere in the house. Pippo and Poppo watched him.

"Calm down Quppo!" Poppo exclaimed. "She'll be back! And then I can meet her!"

Quppo stopped pacing and stared at his younger brother. "She hasn't been back for a whole day now...I'm really worried. Aren't you guys worried too?"

Poppo and Pippo exchanged glances. "Well, of course we are." Pippo agreed. "But us knowing her the way we do, she probably just needs lots of time to think."

Poppo nodded, agreeing with what Pippo had just said. "I know I never seen her face before, but knowing her past...It makes me feel horrible! I would want time to think it over too." Poppo flattened his black and white shirt and fixed the yellow hood on top of his head. (As usual, pic to right)

"But she did have time to think it over!" Quppo said. "When he kicked her out...That gave her at least another year."

"But wasn't she with Arian?" Poppo questioned.

Quppo sighed. "Fine fine...I'll wait just a bit longer...If she's not back in an hour, we're going to look for her!"

"Okay!" Pippo and Poppo agreed at the same time.

Arian had woken up from her nap and was now stretching her arms high in the air. Once she felt something crack, she let her arms go limp on the bed. "Xaden?" She looked over to the other bed in the Inn room...He wasn't there. Arian got of bed and fixed her hair before grabbing her bow and arrows, then she opened the door and was ready to run downstairs, but she suddenly stopped when she had almost ran into Xaden,

He was smiling as he held a tray of breakfast in his hands. He frowned when he saw Arian. "Oh darn it! Go back in bed!"

Arian chuckled and closed the door. She set down her bow and arrows and jumped back into bed and pretended to be asleep. Xaden opened the door and walked inside. Then Arian decided to. 'wake up'. She sat up and yawned as he followed Xaden over to the nightstand next to her bed. Xaden smiled. "Morning darling!" He handed the tray over to Arian.

Arian took it gratefully. "Oh wow thanks Xaden!" She exclaimed.

They both laughed. "I got up early just to give you breakfast in bed...But then you decide to wake up! You almost ruined my plans!"

Arian shrugged and stuffed some bacon into her mouth. "Thank-you so much though! Especially for the bacon!" She smiled and ate some more. "But what about you? Have you had breakfast?"

Xaden nodded as he sat down on the edge of the bed. "Yea. I told you, I woke up early! I ate breakfast for myself real quick, then got you some."

"You're so sweet."

Xaden blushed and smiled.

Arian wiped her mouth with a napkin. "Hey, do you want to visit Roxanne today? We're the only ones who hasn't you know...Learned our powers."

"But she's mean to me..."

"I'll make her be nice. She's my friend! Well, at least I think she is..."

"Oh all right. If you insist." Xaden got off the bed. "You done breakfast?"

Arian looked down at the tray. All the bacon was gone, but everything else was still there. She smiled. "Yea. I'll just eat it later."

"Then let's go."

"But before we do..." Arian set the tray down on the nightstand and got out of bed. "We're going weapon shopping for you." She tapped his nose playfully. "It'll be easier to find out our powers that way."
