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.175Please respect copyright.PENANAi8icxnkbr3
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.175Please respect copyright.PENANAcyjB6aF2rJ
When she was up, she fumbled over her wallet and looked down at the worker, their eyes meeting she froze. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAOTSKxyLSXS
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. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAdzOc9Lkkwc
He smiled nervously, she got this alot, especially with her height. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAh0Zr16C8gs
She returned the smile and ordered handing him her money, he accepted it with a brush of their fingers. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAeAu8P3gJPB
He blushed, she was gorgeous. 175Please respect copyright.PENANA5h3KVCdF6J
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. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAbb43MdvGzf
“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. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAOzWsemmHeM
“Who is she?” he asked. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAzFm63UpM63
His coworker shrugged, and ran fingers through his hair as he took someone's order. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAJAdaRRmnvD
“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. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAJhwvVM0Hlg
“Huh…” 175Please respect copyright.PENANA2RqwVHz59f
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. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAzvXe5mAi4g
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.175Please respect copyright.PENANA1tKwYtWGLO
“Thank you” she spoke softly, he shivered.175Please respect copyright.PENANAg1amQbMTZe
“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. 175Please respect copyright.PENANACJJrPBORKZ
“Yo! Slivester! You're on cash register again!” 175Please respect copyright.PENANAyvfxC3Js7J
He sighed and greeted a customer. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAfPlojthszk
175Please respect copyright.PENANAX3x5h7y5HW
“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. 175Please respect copyright.PENANACvx0tMPuTK
“Someday Idris.” 175Please respect copyright.PENANAafmEbPqHlL
She groaned and finished her coffee, flopping onto the table dramatically. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAR9WoutpGTO
“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.175Please respect copyright.PENANACgtnM0Gvqu
“That's a difficult question to answer” 175Please respect copyright.PENANA77RjNmIOc3
She scowled midbite. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAYcL4a1ftmU
“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.175Please respect copyright.PENANAz9dAdfcI6W
“Fine. we’re…together. Of sorts.” 175Please respect copyright.PENANAcP2iA9gbje
She blinked. 175Please respect copyright.PENANA6hNmjIK3Bc
“So like, you, dad and papaw?” 175Please respect copyright.PENANAhOAYxHesnX
He nodded and it went dead silent, Wilbur shifted uncomfortably.175Please respect copyright.PENANAUmUs8bcAZE
“Cool, when's the wedding?” she teased, Wilbur’s face flushed red. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAa9DT0eI21B
“W-what! There's no wedding!” 175Please respect copyright.PENANAHG7aaZ58gD
She laughed as she chewed her eggs and Quackity joined them in the kitchen. “What wedding?” he asked, She smirked. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAZOk7cRC1C8
“Your guys’” she said simply, Quackity dropped a plate and caught it, his face red with embarrassment as he glared at Wilbur. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAWCxwTH7xIl
“What the hell.” he hissed, Wilbur shrunk and Idris smirked.175Please respect copyright.PENANAmPx3uO2SPG
“You guys really are down bad.” she chuckled, they shot a look at Idris. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAGAAraAfjr6
“Yeah? Well, what about you? When are you gonna go on a date?” Quackity snapped, she stiffened. Suddenly uncomfortable, she frowned. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAfHvH7BeTUo
“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. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAxCSLyG2FbC
“What city?” 175Please respect copyright.PENANAgbhzofKvGC
“Nothing. There are plenty of people here in the Essempii.” Wilbur pleaded, she rolled her eyes. 175Please respect copyright.PENANA975c8wihuN
“You mean plenty of toxic people in Pogtopia.” 175Please respect copyright.PENANApnXbR1XWEH
Quackity watched the altercation before he sighed. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAYuCHoH0zXM
“What city?” 175Please respect copyright.PENANAoXMoKFopGv
“The city of gods.” Idris said glaring at Wil, Quackity blinked. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAzfeQsGKhbQ
“City of gods….? You mean the one above the clouds?” he questioned, Idris nodded and Quackity frowned. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAN3X32pqBr5
“You have to have-” “SHHHH” Wilbur aggressively shushed him and Q raised an eyebrow. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAJFiT9TggFO
“Have to have what?” 175Please respect copyright.PENANA1EUqLqqnK3
“Hold on a moment.” Wilbur stated dragging Quackity from the room. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAPQV42oluEu
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…” 175Please respect copyright.PENANAJd87YHQl0z
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. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAhgR063QCJF
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.175Please respect copyright.PENANAKl8hTebuA0
“Distract her with magic lessons.” 175Please respect copyright.PENANA1LQVNnAhZ3
Wilbur sighed. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAlynzY2gVSj
“Fine.” 175Please respect copyright.PENANAK6tEu75uIZ
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. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAWh98vAvHHE
“Mind explaining what that was about?” she snapped, her eyes narrowed. She was done with his shit he could tell. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAJKJ8x5dDJ7
Wilbur frowned. 175Please respect copyright.PENANA5qN6PXqmYG
“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.175Please respect copyright.PENANAopt2lDOnDr
“Oh…” 175Please respect copyright.PENANALT8Oyrcum4
“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.175Please respect copyright.PENANAdyLWV9lszV
“Thanks Père” she smiled before running off, Wil’s eyes widened at the words. A smile crossed his lips and he chuckled. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAL15bPQpGTs
“Père…”175Please respect copyright.PENANASVbkIJoTnK
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. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAKSEZrqufiR
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. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAvMaR5fzFgx
“Find what you’re looking for?” 175Please respect copyright.PENANAevajbt0IJM
She spun on her heel to see Soul, she giggled and ran at him for a hug. Soul smiled and held her close. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAhqTxPCn9V3
“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. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAJwqEn5wjz1
“Now this, I can help teach you.” he smiled. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAltSfvnWGJO
She grinned. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAqu3ZgHZnOv
175Please respect copyright.PENANAPnSWYtjS0y
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. 175Please respect copyright.PENANALNh7b1M6z4
She sighed shakily, she was nervous but she had to practice. 175Please respect copyright.PENANADz9eB4eUUY
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. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAEZ7kmTUXM9
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. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAeafQ7GZCiU
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. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAwTNIet1Hjg
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. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAQV9aEHDh58
He smiled at Idris. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAbApva9DUD3
“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. 175Please respect copyright.PENANALBUN6iw0hB
“Endperson? What are you talking about?” 175Please respect copyright.PENANAcCddASmMJP
His eyes softened in worry and he frowned “you don’t know your own culture?” he asked, she shook her head. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAMIGFsrAWQG
He was right though, she knew nothing. Soul wouldn’t say anything about her culture, neither would Quackity or Wil…she frowned.175Please respect copyright.PENANArwle2jp1SI
“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. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAmLAgJFhPrY
“My parents are all avians…and a god…” she mumbled, he stared. He knew where this was going. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAWN0p57YWB0
“Someones lying to you then…” 175Please respect copyright.PENANA8Lfq8mHGsO
It was silent for a few moments as Idris inspected the target before looking at the boy. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAvXNhgNQho3
“Who are you?” 175Please respect copyright.PENANACOogTqrqJp
He blinked as a water pixie handed him a small jar of some kind of liquid. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAlK0ksWjULv
“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.” 175Please respect copyright.PENANAx9Fs9TfCK0
Idris rolled her eyes and scoffed. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAR8BbcVSScm
“Hero? Hardly.” 175Please respect copyright.PENANAXTd4vB20Un
His eyes widened as she spread large dragon-like wings and pushed down, shooting upwards into the sky like a rocket. A devil reincarnation…175Please respect copyright.PENANAXSgXPLaiRF
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. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAOe9xq5kXz9
She must be in magic training. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAwZIdml76q2
175Please respect copyright.PENANAilswgI1ekB
“Dad..” 175Please respect copyright.PENANAe305BenI7J
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. 175Please respect copyright.PENANA3GbOyJhHOr
“If I asked you something would you answer it honestly?” she questioned, Soul frowned. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAh4XhSIKebZ
“Of course.” it went silent and Idris stuttered over her words. 175Please respect copyright.PENANA5GZLTCQa3i
“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. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAYpg5zl1LRS
“Belonged to your mother.” 175Please respect copyright.PENANAQvTyGAkcV3
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.175Please respect copyright.PENANAzH3eWDdJKn
“What happened to her?” 175Please respect copyright.PENANA7DDdmiSsGZ
“She died. So did your father.” he frowned, holding no emotion towards the two. He must've known them if he had their belongings. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAuhwnhF1EYC
“Did you know them?” 175Please respect copyright.PENANA6H8SYtlhIb
He hesitated but responded. “No.” he lied, she shivered. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAw8XNWMrXHN
“You’re lying…” she mumbled in disbelief, he froze. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAdKnJIymGt5
“Idris…”175Please respect copyright.PENANAaVdWCK8mkr
Idris scowled and stuffed the jewel into her pocket. “You’re lying to me. How did they die?” she snapped, Soul sighed. 175Please respect copyright.PENANA2zVw5xhoDw
“Murder.” 175Please respect copyright.PENANAvPJSXj9wmw
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. 175Please respect copyright.PENANA3uIzQtdRrR
Idris’s eyes narrowed. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAaHXzwUCjAu
“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. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAZWRxwIkNXL
His vision…175Please respect copyright.PENANAPCWfFkzGym
He scowled. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAkCbvn4BP9b
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. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAHtMAKuK6wq
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. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAC7wiq0W7H3
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. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAhyV5Zy3NGp
“Can we talk?” she whispered. People stared and he nodded. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAU71nMX9X9z
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. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAlAdzVatRiy
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. 175Please respect copyright.PENANA7wuTHnDVwS
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. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAlmLTAMFX5j
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. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAOBnEyAbXEj
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. 175Please respect copyright.PENANA8y1XfOzqSJ
“You were right about my family lying…” 175Please respect copyright.PENANA3AyxT7SHqj
Sliv froze.175Please respect copyright.PENANAhQnxYp56OI
“oh- “175Please respect copyright.PENANAqhAwC8IQKF
“I ran…and I don't have a place to go. I don’t want to stay with a murderer…” she mumbled, Sliv blinked. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAxJAOcUEduQ
“Your dad murdered your parents?” 175Please respect copyright.PENANAmGqNo8MZIN
Idris shrugged. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAZy7aHPFHtm
“Assuming so.” 175Please respect copyright.PENANAurUjIGf9aY
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. 175Please respect copyright.PENANA3L5yZxUYk5
“Really?” 175Please respect copyright.PENANAN4tD7wwbxl
He nodded. “Also, my name's Slivester. You can call me Sliv though” he grinned, she smiled gently. 175Please respect copyright.PENANADXX7UMWd9S
“Idris.” 175Please respect copyright.PENANAX0K0OwWWpm
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. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAyQEnYczjQe
They could already feel the pull of fate, whether it was platonic or not. They were destined to be there for each other. 175Please respect copyright.PENANAeD6AqPHf7H
175Please respect copyright.PENANAH2UxVTNQx4
175Please respect copyright.PENANA8y6zwlXfdD
