It was a fall still day and in a forest, leaves were starting to turn vibrant colors and fall to the ground. The air had the slightest nip to it, making it cold enough to want a jacket if someone were to go outside. A dirt path shot through the forest, curving and twisting in different ways. Luna walked that dusty trail littered with leaves littering it, her bag slung over her shoulder, and her twin swords that formed an ‘X’ on her back. She kicked some dirt up with her black boots, getting her back dress and stockings, which she wore to protect her legs from the cold, dirty. She had been walking through the forest for days, following that path the seemed to lead her nowhere. She didn’t mind it though. Walking was her thinking time. Her eyes were on the ground, watching her feet as they lazily kicked up dirt. Her face wore a blank look, although you couldn’t see it due to her silver hair that covered it when her head was turned down.

Altas was bored. Bored enough to sit outside and watch the squirrels run back and forth as they stored nuts for the comming winter. The monotony was enough to drive him nuts...but it was better then sitting in his chair watching a crystal ball only to see people doing the same thing that the squirrels were doing. Running about, preparing for the future. It was something altas didn't have and wasn't really something he was interested in getting. Having no future just meant he didn't have to go through the pain of loosing it...and pain was something the devil had experienced enough of.

Pushing the thought away quickly he streached his arms above his head and let out a loud yawn. "Enough of all this moping." He grummbled to himself before rising to his boot clad feet. "I need to find something interesting before I end up putting myself out of everyone else's misery." He shoved a gloved hand deep into his right pants pocket and pulled out a small red orb. Holding it in the palm of his hand he stared down at it, his white eyes locked on it like gun sights. His lips parted, but before he could say a word he heard a shuffling of feet that didn't belong to his buddies the squirrels. Self preservation said that he make himself scarse or at the very least hid the over sized ram horns sticking out from his head...however Curiosity demanded that he stay where he was and see who, or what, had wandered this deep into the forest. He decided to go with curiosity, because whatever was coming his way had to be more interesting that squirrels.

Luna came to a stop when she felt a presence. She raised her head, now on alert and glanced around. "Hello?" She asked cautiously, reaching to her back to make sure her swords were still there. She listened for the crunch of leaves, or anything else that would let her know where that someone was. "I don't play, so you better come out." She said with irritation. Luna always got mad when people interrupted her thoughts, and even though the day had been calm, it was no acceptation.
