Landon slowly entered the house where Candra's voice had drawn him too
listening to the silent echo of her words. "I'm not responsible for your past demons...."
He'd been wondering what she'd meant since he'd arrived at the house and heard the
echo of the haunting words. "Candra!!"he yells listening to the echo of his voice. This
way Landon...a voice speaks to his mind not sounding like his sister, but more like
another figure of his past. "Neo?"he demands confused as to how his cousin could
have survived after all the years. Neo had been his only companion once he'd run, but
had abandoned him only a few years after for an elite group that promised him anything
he wanted. "Yes?"Neo replies materializing in front of him to lean against the
staircase. "Where's my sister?" "Candra? Oh she's here, but she can't talk now."
Landon's eyes narrow and he glares at him before pinning the other guy against the
wall and pressing his blades against his throat. "I swear if you've hurt her...."he trails
off letting that statement sink into his mind. "Why would I hurt someone as sweet as
Candra? Oh yes.....if you don't leave here now I promise she will die." "Why can't I see
her she's been searchin' for me!" "No...she doesn't want to see you now leave before
you lose her for real...."Neo commands his eyes narrowing as he forms a ball of fire in
one hand. "I'm gone for now, but if she calls again you won't be able to stop me,"he
scowls pulling his claws away, but slicing a long line into his cousin's face,"Remember
that, Neo." With those words he turns and walks out speaking briefly to Candra,"Don'
be afraid. I won't lose you again." He walks out heading back to the BH only to be
found first by Saber. "Where have you been?"Saber demands glaring at him. "I had
family buisness to attend to, not that it's any of your buisness..."Landon growls walking
past him and continuing on. "You're not as important as you think you are Landon....."
Saber threatens gaining no reaction.
Tara was standing on the roof of the BH Headquarters after another fight
with Toad. "Why are you on the roof?"Landon asks dropping down behind her as she
turns to face him. "Just gettin' some air. Why are you back?" "Candra won't allow me
to see her right now,"he says studying her. "Oh....ok." "Toad problems again?" "Yeah..."
"Why won't you have a relationship with him?" "Cause you can tell by looking at him
that it would only be a one night stand." "Right....yeah so what can you tell by looking at
me?"he asks stepping closer to her mostly just to bug her but curious too. "Um that
you're hungry for...um apple crisp. I'll go make some...."she nods and jumps down going
in quickly.
Landon smiled a minute and stood there then jumped down heading in. He
was suprised when he walked into the kitchen to find Tara cooking apple crisp. "Hmm..
apple crisp?"he asks walking up behind her. "Yeah..couldn't offer without havin'
any,"she mutters turning back to placing it in the oven. "Right...."Landon nods and sits
down on the counter balancing a nearby knife on the back of his hand. After a few
minutes, Tara sits down beside him and watches for a minute. He pays no attention
to her keeping his attention on the knife he was balancing. She spit out some of that
green goo-like stuff knocking the knife off as it cut a deep slit into his hand. "Ow,
damn..."he scowls. "Sorry..."she apologizes hastily as he hops down and begins to
bandage his hand after cleaning off the blood. He shrugs moving back over to sit on
the counter again as she studies the bandage. "Does it hurt?" "No it tickles...."he
answers with evident sarcasm. "Sorry...." "TARA! LANDON! TOAD!MEETING NOW!"
Mystique yells coming in from outside and from the sound of it dropping something on
the meeting room table. "Hmm.....that must be somethin' big..."Landon grins vanishing
out as she follows with rolled eyes. As he walked into the meeting room and sat at the
table with the others he noticed the figure laying there and recognized her. "Not
Nanaki again,"he mutters recognizing Saber's neice who'd skipped the brotherhood for
X-Men awhile back. "Yes.....now she'll be awake soon." "Just great,"he says the same
time as Toad watching her move. "Oh no....."Nanaki scowls sitting up and glaring at
them all upon realizing where she was. "Hey Nanaki,"Saber smiles holding out a hand
to her. "Don't touch me....."she says standing as her eyes darken to red. "Oh hell....."
Landon says it recognizing the action too well. "What is it?"Tara demands looking at
him in confusion. "Split Personality...Celesta isn't very nice." "We said we didn't want
to be here, didn't we, Uncle Vic?"Nanaki/Celesta scowls glaring at them before taking
off outside. "GO AFTER HER!"Saber booms making him jump up. "Riight.....well let's
get to it,"Toad sighs as they all take off outside to find her. "CELESTA! GET BACK
HERE!"he commands taking off outside as Landon walks slowly behind him. He arrived
just in time to watch Tara catch Celesta's ankle with her tounge only to have the end of
it sliced off. Celesta takes off with Toad close as he moves to kneel by Tara,"hey you
ok?" "Mah tounge...."she mutters even though her tounge is bleeding badly. "You gotta
get it cleaned up...."he says pulling off his brown leather jacket and wrapping it around
the end of her tounge,"Come back to the insitute with me." She starts to reply, but then
just follows him back to the insitute and to the hospital room/wing. "Sit,"Landon
commands pushing her into a chair and getting a bandage and some other stuff for
her tounge.
Tara was busy over the next few minutes after Landon bandaged her tounge
trying to figure out how to put it back in her mouth. "How'd ya know dat?"she asks
watching him begin to put the stuff up with his back to her. "One of the few things I
remembered from being a mercenery before,"he shrugs turning at last to face her.
"How long do I gotta wear this?"she asks not liking the feel of it. "I guess it can come
off whenever you feel the blood stop,"he shrugs leaning against the counter. She nods
and carefully removes the bandage as it quits bleeding and then puts her tounge back
in her mouth how it belongs. He's not so bad.......Tara thinks standing and walking off
to the kitchen.
Landon waited a day before approaching Tara again when he saw her in the
kitchen. "Hey, how ya feelin?"he questions walking over and leaning beside her.
"Alright, doesn't hurt too much...."she answers glancing at him then turning back to
studying something. "Can I ask you something?" "If you have to have to...."she answers
not looking up. "Fine....."he hesitates a moment then kisses her waiting for her
reaction. She does nothing as he figured then as he turns to go she turns him around
and kisses him before jumping up onto the ceiling. "Why are you on the ceiling?" "Um..
I just am?"she replies. "Right.....I have some work to do with my family,"Landon nods
walking off to the computer room in silence.
-Landon had allowed himself to do the one thing he promised never to-love again....what
more could possibly happen?-
