"Uh, please pass the butter." Rune cautiously asked Ruwalk. He blushed as he handed over the dish.

"Ok. What's going on?" Rath put down his fork and stared intently at the foursome.

"nothing." Alfeegi forced a grin and stiffly went on with his life.

"fine." Rath returned to his food. I'll get it out of Rune and Thatz later. He thought.

That was easier that expected. Thought Ruwalk.

Uh oh. Now he's gonna question me and Thatz. I know it. Thought Rune.

Yup. You got that right. I suggest you run away. Far, far away. You know you can't keep a secret. Rune started as his dragon landed on his shoulder and nipped at the slice of bread he was attempting to butter.

"Hey! I can keep a secret!" he whined, earning strange looks from every one. "What?" they raised their eyebrows and returned to their food. "See, look what you've done! Now they all think im nuts!" he hissed at Mizu. (Shadow: ha-ha! Defiance!!)

You think your not? Rune growled and handed the ruined piece of toast to Mizu.

"What ever"

-------------------------------------------

"Rune?" Rath knocked on Runes door. There was no answer. He knocked again. He leaned against the door, listening to the music that was emanating from behind the door.

Why is everything so hard
I don't think I can deal with the things you said
It just won't go away

In a perfect world
This could never happen
In a perfect world
You'd still be here
And it makes no sense
I could just pick up the pieces
But to you
This means nothing
Nothing at all

I used to think that I was strong
Until the day it all went wrong
I think I need a miracle to make it through

Yeah

I pictured I could bring you back
I pictured I could turn back time
Cuz I cant let go
I just cant find my way
Yeah
Without you I just cant find my way

In a perfect world
This could never happen
In a perfect world
You'd still be here
And it makes no sense
I could just pick up the pieces
But to you
This means nothing
Nothing at all

Rath sighed and leaned more on the hard wood, letting the music wrap around him. He sighed.

I don't know what I should do now
I don't know where I should go
Im still here waiting for you
Im lost when you're not around
I need to hold on to you
I just cant let you go

Yeah
Yeah

In a perfect world
This could never happen
In a perfect world
You'd still be here
And it makes no sense
I could just pick up the pieces
But to you
This means nothing
Nothing at all
Nothing, nothing at all
Nothing at all

For some reason, he could relate to the song. When the music died away, all drive to question Rune was replaced with sadness. He didn't know why, but the words just seemed to ring with truth. He sighed again and left Rune alone.

Ok. That was a weird chapter. But it's not my fault! I was listening to simple plan! That just seems to make you depressed.
