@Xiumin *rubs my forehead, nodding more*
I know..I know
*taps the staff against my shoulder, groaning*
Locate him...I used up what little trust he had in me, he won't come unprepared*
@Tao *nods to you with a slight smile*
I know but its for the better good...
just remember that
*sighs gently at this point*
are you able to find him or do I need to locate him?
@Xiumin *takes the staff and sighs softly*
*looks it over, nodding slowly*
Not very willingly....but if I have to
I'm just glad there's no bond in this life yet.....hurting my mate would be impossible
*tries not to think about it, running a hand through my hair*
@Tao *nods as I stand up and gets the staff before holding it out to you*
remember...
you have to be willing to do what it needs...
it may including hurting him to save him...
can you do that?
@Xiumin *smiles briefly between bites, nodding gratefully at you*
He does..thank you
*sets the half-finished food to the side and gives you a gentle hug*
Let's do this...
*sighs and stands, stretching my arms and holding my hand out for the staff*
@Xiumin *chuckles bitterly, hanging my head for a moment*
Sorry...can't help it really
*looks up as I smell food and nods once, holding my hands out for the tray*
*starts eating without another word, stuffing my mouth slowly*
@Tao dont need to be afraid of me...
*nods a bit as I check you over*
*stays quite for a few minutes before I stand back just as the door opens*
you are good, just eat your food and soon...
we will go for Ren
and hopefully end this once and for all
@Xiumin *nods a bit, feeling relieved that food is on the way*
*tenses slightly when you hover, looking up at you and frowning*
*shakes my head, holding my arms out and letting you check*
No...I'm fine
@Tao *has already mind linked for an omega to bring the food*
it should be here shortly
*goes over and checks you over*
I just need to make sure but does anything hurt?
did you get injured getting here?
@Xiumin *frowns a bit, looking you over*
*sighs quietly and rubs my eyes*
Yeah...food please..that would be wonderful
* my lips, turning to hang my feet off of the bed*
@Xiumin *ends up falling asleep, snoring quietly*
*pulls my leg up and whines softly under my breath when I sense you*
*opens my eyes slowly, yawning*
*sits up in the bed, looking around*
@Tao *is gone for a few hours, working to sak the staff and make sure is strong*
he should be able to get his memory back...
the trick is going to be to get him to hold it
*sighs at this point and lets out a soft whine*
*closes my eyes a bit before leaving it be and goes to check on you*
@Xiumin *scoffs a bit, not feeling confident in myself at all*
* my lips and smiles briefly, nodding*
Alright..
*waves at you before laying back on the bed*
*closes my eyes, letting the omega look me over as I rest*
@Tao *looks up as an omega comes into the room*
I think you will make it
*smiles lightly at you*
just have faith alright
*pats your shoulder a bit*
alright I will be back to check on you
*goes to prepare the staff for what is to come*
@Xiumin *smiles back and nods, tears in my eyes again*
And I'm always late..
*rubs my face and sighs, shaking my head a bit*
Let's hope..this time it's permanent
*still shakes a bit, taking deep breaths*
@Tao we will protect him...
I can tell you are the one that loves him the same each time
*cant help but smile at you*
he always waits for you...
you are very special to you and I made a promise a long time ago that I would get you two together
and I keep my promises they just...take awhile to make happen
@Xiumin *tenses a bit, not expecting you to hang around*
*slowly looks up at you, frowning still*
Mm...he never listens to anyone
*smiles briefly and shakes my head a bit*
I hope you're right..
I want to protect him this time...
@Tao *watches you for a bit and sighs a bit*
its going to be okay...
i have warned him many a times in each life...
but he never listens
*frowns a bit*
we will get him back...
and we will put a stop to this
I am tired of seeing a friend going through this each life...
@Xiumin *lets you take the staff and follows you quietly*
*hugs myself, staring at the floor as I go over the last few hours in my mind*
*feels my heart starting to ache for Minki, wanting him back already*
*plops on the bed and rests my elbows on my knees, humming quietly*
*nods silently at you*
*rubs my hands together, not looking up at all, just thinking*
@Tao *nods as I look at you worried*
i need the staff...
*gently takes it from you before leading you to one of the guests room*
*instructs the omegas to care for you while I prepare the staff*
i hope you are ready in a few hours for us to go
*looks to you a bit worried*
be ready to do what you need to do alright?
@Xiumin *sighs a bit, hugging my legs to my chest and resting my chin on them*
*nods and tears up more*
Yeah...we have to do something before the new moon
*rubs at my nose again, looking up at you again, not wanting to move*
*feels my bottom lip tremble and looks down before I can break, nodding as I push myself up*
*brings the staff up with me, leaning against it*
Okay...lead the way then..I guess
@Tao *watches you a bit and looks to the staff*
its been a very long time since I have seen that staff
I havent seen it in this life but in my previous ones I have
*slowly sniffs the air and sighs a bit*
it finally happened didn't it?
he snapped?
*watches you with worried eyes and goes to take the staff*
come...I need to prepare the materials for this
and while I do you are going to be looked after by an omega
whats going to come...
you are going to need to be at your best
@Xiumin *looks up when the door opens, tears still in my eyes*
* my lips and slowly sets the staff down, still pouting as I look you over*
It's...where he sent me
*wipes at my eyes and sighs a bit, whimpering quietly*
Minki...he was able to come out long enough to give me some hints...and this
*gestures to the staff and hangs my head, pouting*
He said to soak it in your water..
@Tao *had stepped out of my office to get some papers from my secretary before stepping out*
thank you...yes i will let you know if I am thirsty
*goes to open my office door and freezes when I see you*
*narrows my eyes as I set the papers down and lock the door behind me*
what the hell are you doing in my office?
*asks you in a deathly calm voice, ready to attack if I have to*
*eyes the staff you have and wonders what the hell exactly it is for*
@Xiumin *plops down out of a portal of some type, landing face first in front of your desk with a small scream*
*groans and gasps, jumping up and looking around frantically as I call for Ren*
Ren..MInki damnit...*whines*
*plops down on my , tearing up as I hold onto a staff that was given to me*
*sniffles quietly, pressing my face against it and closing my eyes*
