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.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo2lbEjGo3x
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.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCUVSTBmkzE
When she was up, she fumbled over her wallet and looked down at the worker, their eyes meeting she froze. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ51w5xxcHOJ
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. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMdjGeuJtST
He smiled nervously, she got this alot, especially with her height. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHia6Yd6mSQ
She returned the smile and ordered handing him her money, he accepted it with a brush of their fingers. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHW6ByRU9gc
He blushed, she was gorgeous. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡovnl14swbQ
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. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW4dOya50Ig
“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. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7FdyzJNViP
“Who is she?” he asked. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOlNyY0f4Hp
His coworker shrugged, and ran fingers through his hair as he took someone's order. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWQqVLdi391
“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. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8uxYsD0Yqg
“Huh…” 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡecxtEA9RL4
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. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkdTV38Zirc
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.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWK0mUg5kkB
“Thank you” she spoke softly, he shivered.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJNA0ZQTZVW
“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. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDPsMMPrNlV
“Yo! Slivester! You're on cash register again!” 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgsKXSuJzez
He sighed and greeted a customer. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ77zambhVRs
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfhUygdnVc1
“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. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9r2VTRMUjb
“Someday Idris.” 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYie5cvFRIJ
She groaned and finished her coffee, flopping onto the table dramatically. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOPVFsRIOJv
“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.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdFH9BiyodN
“That's a difficult question to answer” 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGpSaF0NarF
She scowled midbite. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzwBGzGgW9j
“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.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaADFrV5cj4
“Fine. we’re…together. Of sorts.” 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZusUElT3OT
She blinked. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLRfjWSnrjQ
“So like, you, dad and papaw?” 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbM43dYvWZk
He nodded and it went dead silent, Wilbur shifted uncomfortably.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDpkW53XffY
“Cool, when's the wedding?” she teased, Wilbur’s face flushed red. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKri7xWyxX2
“W-what! There's no wedding!” 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi4IA1HDNXm
She laughed as she chewed her eggs and Quackity joined them in the kitchen. “What wedding?” he asked, She smirked. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2NXiYl9dOM
“Your guys’” she said simply, Quackity dropped a plate and caught it, his face red with embarrassment as he glared at Wilbur. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvH8XVLOQ9
“What the hell.” he hissed, Wilbur shrunk and Idris smirked.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuT2CphVFkY
“You guys really are down bad.” she chuckled, they shot a look at Idris. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡomDmCvrK1E
“Yeah? Well, what about you? When are you gonna go on a date?” Quackity snapped, she stiffened. Suddenly uncomfortable, she frowned. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIh3wE0c3ND
“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. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdrK9bapayn
“What city?” 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVgI6wIoei8
“Nothing. There are plenty of people here in the Essempii.” Wilbur pleaded, she rolled her eyes. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK5pfuMB6UJ
“You mean plenty of toxic people in Pogtopia.” 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5Baco71uy
Quackity watched the altercation before he sighed. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUe7c61zyJD
“What city?” 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQHrYOkk8fl
“The city of gods.” Idris said glaring at Wil, Quackity blinked. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlIhGD3SqKI
“City of gods….? You mean the one above the clouds?” he questioned, Idris nodded and Quackity frowned. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLZf9Re60pA
“You have to have-” “SHHHH” Wilbur aggressively shushed him and Q raised an eyebrow. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi8k4XKBx4G
“Have to have what?” 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa1a4OEIvQg
“Hold on a moment.” Wilbur stated dragging Quackity from the room. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ZEg60iCkT
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…” 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU94aJiG0y2
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. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqCUtjPFOZe
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.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1bjP6jfLwN
“Distract her with magic lessons.” 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2xA1Mv7e7i
Wilbur sighed. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWFvcUCY79H
“Fine.” 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXrtFQFenAm
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. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡia2w3A1XNh
“Mind explaining what that was about?” she snapped, her eyes narrowed. She was done with his shit he could tell. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡICp2vRfmfK
Wilbur frowned. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnVTU4TR1GJ
“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.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVmMu4r0T3H
“Oh…” 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4wKyjwAwLv
“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.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0w8sPPRqNB
“Thanks Père” she smiled before running off, Wil’s eyes widened at the words. A smile crossed his lips and he chuckled. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2iJSmOMzeD
“Père…”210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡznmNU9PdDm
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. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXXLrTVKdck
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. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgRuNUT8XDC
“Find what you’re looking for?” 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjvhalNB1B
She spun on her heel to see Soul, she giggled and ran at him for a hug. Soul smiled and held her close. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeoCkbgj6jU
“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. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtqjhCeFATO
“Now this, I can help teach you.” he smiled. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuwMju0M6w3
She grinned. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO6waGGp6cn
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ26QybII1wW
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. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Q09DklWia
She sighed shakily, she was nervous but she had to practice. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5JECh6GC7E
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. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR8n99yfhdB
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. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdy856gR3tX
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. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuN7U5lltdX
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. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2pRhtkOVGA
He smiled at Idris. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMDzRubzfBd
“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. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoqJcwnAVTf
“Endperson? What are you talking about?” 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCbPlsgUUcJ
His eyes softened in worry and he frowned “you don’t know your own culture?” he asked, she shook her head. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJRt46QjwMQ
He was right though, she knew nothing. Soul wouldn’t say anything about her culture, neither would Quackity or Wil…she frowned.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQjF5bHhWqb
“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. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmLc4IFdKZn
“My parents are all avians…and a god…” she mumbled, he stared. He knew where this was going. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCmdsYY7Ztf
“Someones lying to you then…” 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAVxIE8TU2s
It was silent for a few moments as Idris inspected the target before looking at the boy. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOpN7BZUAuq
“Who are you?” 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx4VcqcPnyz
He blinked as a water pixie handed him a small jar of some kind of liquid. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYrW3JxLVfH
“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.” 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc8j4uKFmj2
Idris rolled her eyes and scoffed. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡstTEuFAZ1E
“Hero? Hardly.” 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjyw9w0lKvE
His eyes widened as she spread large dragon-like wings and pushed down, shooting upwards into the sky like a rocket. A devil reincarnation…210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqqoK8xQRLq
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. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAHOWbWUYUv
She must be in magic training. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHP9x29bojj
210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpmKWNgwH34
“Dad..” 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVazU2LIXyG
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. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9jNx9ShUd4
“If I asked you something would you answer it honestly?” she questioned, Soul frowned. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtBuwOxS7Ek
“Of course.” it went silent and Idris stuttered over her words. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡajlIPETft1
“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. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdZ2osS1dnF
“Belonged to your mother.” 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN1Wf1YKmT8
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.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGC8TViF51w
“What happened to her?” 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx8zF4zcInf
“She died. So did your father.” he frowned, holding no emotion towards the two. He must've known them if he had their belongings. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ9gGnG2MVz
“Did you know them?” 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqynrXWStDu
He hesitated but responded. “No.” he lied, she shivered. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ05gd91Fea2
“You’re lying…” she mumbled in disbelief, he froze. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwJyYfZeE3i
“Idris…”210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgU1SfnfpTn
Idris scowled and stuffed the jewel into her pocket. “You’re lying to me. How did they die?” she snapped, Soul sighed. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLR46QnUWTO
“Murder.” 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMCTFqBqOML
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. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7euZ6nWlnm
Idris’s eyes narrowed. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcJA8LffDC3
“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. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVpdCshqAxF
His vision…210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpvBqcJZrGh
He scowled. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwH9xH5w5k7
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. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyfXPxhN9EN
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. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ylJu5InWI
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. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3xPc5Qfz2I
“Can we talk?” she whispered. People stared and he nodded. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHKF7i6BItj
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. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYUGR6sG8Ug
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. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo6pQNuPGmR
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. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtI7bOusZDD
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. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ZPX6s5TYm
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. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJi5HN3bxpW
“You were right about my family lying…” 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQhhG5Qimd
Sliv froze.210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHmI2aVAnGl
“oh- “210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy9U2qBtyU5
“I ran…and I don't have a place to go. I don’t want to stay with a murderer…” she mumbled, Sliv blinked. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc8QRDIvzHR
“Your dad murdered your parents?” 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvPm5diw9s3
Idris shrugged. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCpX17dOCAu
“Assuming so.” 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiPOhYBxnks
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. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4setqoBCZ
“Really?” 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxzJzSwsL0A
He nodded. “Also, my name's Slivester. You can call me Sliv though” he grinned, she smiled gently. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5VBDAj21Gx
“Idris.” 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFkYApNm4Tf
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. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpc0D94Qr7B
They could already feel the pull of fate, whether it was platonic or not. They were destined to be there for each other. 210Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOEI8RYzGAe
