Rythto RP [ON HOLD]

The Intruder

Seto and Rythian laid in bed, both fast asleep with Rythian's arm around Seto's waist protectively. Suddenly there was a loud crash, and Rythian's eyes snapped open. Seto's eyes opened tiredly as Rythian sat up, reaching toward his nightstand and opening the drawer. He pulled out a sword, and Seto's eyes widen as he sat up quickly.

"R-Rythian?! W-What are you doing-?!"

"I heard someone in the kitchen downstairs. Stay here." Rythian whispered quickly, kissing Seto on the forehead before he disappeared out of the room.

The intruder hissed under her breath. Breaking in through the window was not the best idea. Shards of broken glass covered the floor with her on top of them. Surely she would be caught now, unless she was quick. 

Rythian silently stalked down the stairs and toward the closed kitchen door, readying his magic and sword. 

The glass was cutting deep into her skin, creating a small puddle of blood. The intruder slowly got up, trying not to injure herself further or risk getting caught. She looked around, realizing she was in a kitchen. She walked towards a large cabinet and crawled inside, quickly closing it. The cramped space did not help her injuries. 

Rythian entered the kitchen, looking around sharply. 

The creaking noises of a door made the girl's heart stop. She held her breath, not daring to breath. She knew one thing for sure. There is no going back. 

Rythian's eyes land on the cabinet she had hidden herself in, staring at it for a few seconds before turning and leaving. 

Whoever was there was surely gone now. She slowly crawled out of the cabinet, breathing a sigh of relief. She stood up a little too quickly, earning a wince of pain from her. Her silver eyes darted to the mess of broken glass she had left behind. It was easy to spot since it appeared to be glistening in the moonlight. 

Couldn't hurt to clean it up right? 

Rythian leaned against the wall next to the kitchen door silently, listening.

She looked down at the purple sweater she was wearing. A big red blotch was on the side. Well, no time to worry about that. Grabbing a dust pan she spotted in the corner, she started cleaning up the broken shards. The clinking sound of the glass sounded quite pleasant to her. She started to hum as threw out the glass. She a couple of paper towels and started cleaning up the small puddle of blood she left behind. Now that she thought about it, she was getting a little light headed. 

Rythian raised an eyebrow as he heard the sounds. 

The girl's humming slowly turn into singing. 

"I'd rather walk then just waltz through forest..." she quietly sang as she finished cleaning up the blood. She could never stay in a bad mood for long. Remembering what she was doing here in the first place, she toke out a sapphire pendant. Her crescent moon pendant started to glow. 

"If I were to pluck on your heartstrings would you strum on mine?" She sung louder and her smile was widening. The risk of getting caught completely slipped her mind. 

Rythian suddenly grabbed his own head, gritting his teeth to hold in a cry of pain. He felt a lot of power, a lot of power. 

 "Tonight I'm busting out..." 

She put the sapphire pendant back in her pocket, but her pendant didn't stop glowing. 

"...of this old haunted house"  

Rythian gritted his teeth in pain. 

She sensed someone right aside the kitchen door. She frowned slightly, but didn't stop singing.
