Arias swallowed and walked toward the porch. Before she even climbed the steps, the door slammed open and a young girl with bouncing white curls ran out. She held a little dog in her hands and she stopped immediately when she saw Arias, almost running into her. "Aria! Aria, what are you doing with that damn dog-" A man pushed the door open looking annoyed. He fell silent as he saw Arias, too. The man's eyes widened and he stared. Toby...? The little girl wrinkled her nose, "I was only taking Mui out for a walk, Daddy." The man closed the door behind him and stared at Arias. "Do I know you?" he whispered. "Perhaps. I am Arias Shaldin. I came to see if someone I knew lived here." "You are...but you...are you my sister?" the guy stuttered out. Arias bit her lip, "Tobias?" They stared at each other for the longest time until he walked forward and looked her over. "It has been years. I have been waiting and searching for so long." "You have done well, I am surprised that you picked up your heritage, though." Tobias nodded and shrugged, pulling back. "I spent a long time searching for Zeke, with no luck of course. Finally, I fell in love and, well, I got married and my wife had Aria. I named her after you." he smiled on the last part. Arias blinked and took a deep breath.

Deston listened to Ebony as she spoke of letting him come along, sort of liking the idea. He wasn't too keen on going into someone else's dwelling without them present, even if he did have their permission. The ice demon, however, found that Ebony was only thinking aloud and before he knew it she had taken off. Well, so much for that. He started walking to the dormitory that Ebony had pointed out, thinking to and with himself as he walked. Maintenant je commence à me souvenir pourquoi je suis toujours seul. Deston thought, not wanting a reply but getting one anyway. "You can't say you expected anything different." One "mood" commented. "You really don't socialize all that much, so how can you expect anyone to stick around?" A second one murmured. Well, that wasn't helpful in the least. He shook his head and continued walking, letting his other "moods" pester him about the painfully obvious. The ice demon reached the dormitory after a few minutes and took about ten more to find Ebony's room before unlocking the door and walking in. He locked the door behind him, just in case some other student wanted to come waltzing in. Not all people reacted well to seeing someone strange in a friend's room.
(( Maintenant je commence à me souvenir pourquoi je suis toujours seul. = Now I'm starting to remember why I'm always alone.))

Arias looked at the little girl but then closed her eyes. There were so many things that had nagged her for years that were now settled for her. So, does this mean that my life is over now? Is there nothing else that my ripped and worn heart desires? Her eyes stayed closed, but she could feel her blood pound in her veins. And then it hit her. Despite everything, I don't belong here. My life here has been over for over a century. I belong with... Images of Ebony's bright smile, Deston's impassive eyes, and Alec and Kashi filled her mind. Arias eyes snapped open and she looked at Toby. "It has been good to see you, brother, but my life here is over. I hope to see you soon, but I must go now. I have some people I need to see." She turned around and winked at the child before walking toward the bus station. For the first time in years, Arias breathed. She actually breathed, and she could feel the chilled air in her lungs. "All of this time, I have been so focused on Zeke and killing him. It is only after it is all over that I have realized what good friends I have made."
