Underground Caverns

The brisk sound of water and the faintest sound of water dropping from the cavern, it was a pretty decent day for the Incubus to go out and sight see all by himself. Gadara was never one to go in a group to these places for some people just did not like the places he picked. Walking in a calm and almost elegant stride did he look around rather quietly with his tail gliding through the air without restraint.

Eona came through the entrance of the Caverns. She let out a soft, contented sigh and ran a hand through her short white hair. Her tail swished as she walked causing her cloak to move as well. She looked up at the high ceilings and continued walking on the path. As she walked she listened to the sounds of the water dripping. Eona whistled softly, not noticing the other person in the Cavern.

The sounds of someone else approaching got his attention as he glanced over his shoulder as he came to a full stop. The tail that belonged to him simply flicked before going still upon him turning around so he could face this person who he could faintly see. Normally, a greeting would be in order but the only thing that came from him was a raised eyebrow and a small smirk. The Incubus listened to the soft whistle which was coming from the slowly appearing lass before him. Gadara got lost in the sound that he blinked and turned away from looking back, for he figured to keep going unless get on someones bad side.

Eona heard a slight shuffling and looked to see where it was coming from. In the distance she saw a figure. Her eyes hadn't yet adjusted to the light difference so she couldn't exactly make out what or who the figure was but she thought she saw the flick of a tail. She took a few steps closer to try and see if the person was a threat or not. The were couldn't tell this far away; she hoped that the person wasn't a threat to her. After several minutes of debating she called out. "Hello there!" Her voice was kind and not too cheerful. She hoped the stranger couldn't pick up on the nervousness in her voice. She quickly walked to where the other person was, stopping several feet away.

Stopping in mid step did he stop and look down silently before glancing back again and hearing her speak to him made him faintly smirk. Gadara usually was distant but other times liked to sight see and see new things, especially people. The incubus crossed his arms before turning around to face her though he could tell that she could not see him well. Calm and cool as ever did he merely shrug his shoulders with his eyes closed. "Greetings, Lass.", the british tongue escaped his smooth lips as he stood there still with his eyes still closed.

Eona tipped her head to the side ever so slightly, her ears twitching. Her eyes had finally finished adjusting so she could see the person in front of her was actually a man and by the looks of it, she guessed that he was a demon. She looked him up and down. Her tail swayed slightly behind her ruffling the fabric of her white cloak. After a few minutes of deep thought she decided that the man didn't seem threatening. He also didn't seem to be a hunter. "I hope I didn't interrupt you at all." Her voice was just barely above a whisper as she realized that if the man in front of her were to open his eyes, he would see her very unusual traits. The thought of this made her more and more nervous by the second and when she spoke again her nervousness could be heard in the slight tremors of her voice. "My name is Eona, who might you be?" Her tail stopped swaying and began to twitch nervously, as did her ears.

Slowly he opened his eyes of crimson red as he looked toward his company before him and the smirk never did once leave his lips. Slowly he looked her over and could not help but raise his left hand up to his chin as he thought about it. In actual truth he was not being bothered for well he was merely sight seeing which seemed right. Gadara blinked barely before removing his hand away from his chin while his right hand fell to his side. "Gadara.", he simply replied to her calmly without much fear on his features for he seemed way to confident. Eona who he just realized her name was becoming quite restless or her voice sounded like it, and he could not help but wonder why. As he thought about it did his tail flick to the side which showed he was in deep thought.

Eona took a deep breath to calm herself. He hadn't reacted badly when he saw her. He didn't laugh or make any rude comments and he wasn't threatening her. She quietly reassured herself that it was okay. After a few moments of deep breathing her tail and ears stopped twitching. She smiled at the man, Gadara, in front of her. "Well Gadara, it's nice to meet you. You have a very intriguing name by the way. I quite like it. I don't often meet people with intriguing names." She ran another hand through her hair, mostly to calm her nerves. She still struggled with being around others, especially in an inclosed space such as the one they were in at the moment.

Gadara's thoughts were put to the side for the moment as she spoke up and as he looked toward her did he tilt his head lightly which made his hair shift some. Eona seemed to be in better spirits and so that put his thoughts to rest for the time being. "Is that so? That is a major pity.", he spoke of this as if it were normal which made sense since he was talking to another. Gadara however nodded and looked to her calmly. "With that being said, I am glad that you think my name is so catching.", his tone was just full of his british accent and much like himself even his voice was unique.

Eona nodded letting her hand rest on her hip. She was intrigued by more than just his voice. She hadn't met very many demons, at least any that didn't want to kill her or capture her. Gadara was the first she had met that seemed at least a tiny bit social. She took just a few small steps closer before turning to sit down on the path, her legs dangling over the side. She motioned to him to sit next to her. "If you don't mind me asking, what brings you here?" Her voice was gentle and full of curiosity now, her previous tension and nerves gone. Her tail swished on the ground behind her a few times before coming to rest on her lap.

The incubus took note on how Eona quickly walked over and sat down and then motioned for him to join her. Tilting his head some did he close his eyes silently and sat down beside her with his tail hanging off the edge much like his legs. Gadara glanced to her and noted how close he was to her which was interesting since he usually stayed to himself up against a wall of some sort. Then again she asked for him to join by motioning him and that would of been rude to not accept or so he reasoned. "Sight seeing.", was his response for it was calm as well as it being the truth.

The fur on Eona's tail tickled her thighs and she gave a quiet giggle. She looked around the cavern and took in all the beautiful pieces that had crumbled away with time. "Well I must say you picked a great place. I personally think it's great for two reasons. The first being that people don't usually come here and the second being that you can feel the ancient energies of the things that were left behind in this place. I find it quite calming, but that's just me. I've found that most people find a place like this to be spooky and creepy." Her voice stayed soft, just barely above a whisper. The caverns were generally very quiet aside from the sound of the water and almost any loud noises echoed off of the walls. The were leaned back slightly and put her arms out behind her so as to prop herself up.

The incubus watched her and made sure to listen since he was usually quiet but since he was sight seeing he could just relax some. Normally, he was always laid back which also proved that he took things rather well. Gadara did go with the flow when it came to relaxing and sight seeing but Eona did have some points which was why he was now looking around rather silent. The sound of the water and the drips of water falling from the top of the cavern was probably his favorite sound. Gadara glanced toward her silenly and he nodded while allowing a smirk to show itself. "Most places I pick tend to be looked at as not good.", he said this just to throw it out there since he did tend to walk into places that some did not want to go into.

A very soft smile spread across her lips. She brushed a piece of hair from her face and leaned forward looking down to see the things that were below them. "I always find the 'bad' places to be the best. Maybe it's because people look at me the same way..." She made air quotes when she said the word bad and her voice trailed off as she finished speaking. She hadn't meant to share that bit of information but she felt comfortable around Gadara and since he hadn't looked at her the way most others did she had just let that bit slip. She sat back, tail swishing on her lap, and thought for a moment. She laced her fingers together behind her head and leaned back laying against the cold stone. She stared up at the ceiling listening to the sounds of the caverns.

Gadara shrugged with a small noise of 'Neh' escaping from his smooth lips, at times people were to cautious and well it was alright to be cautious but at the same time go out and live a little. The incubus simply looked toward his tail and then off the edge of where he was sitting much like Eona was doing sometime earlier. The exchanging of words felt good from time to time but he also knew that he needed to better improve himself and his feelings which will take a little time. "Don't let it bother you much. If you want to go look at other bad places let me know.", as he said this did his eyes leave from where he was looking and was now looking to the side rather calmly. Gadara did not know why he said that to Eona but it could be because that another person liked the same thing as he does when it came to sight seeing.

A small soft smile played across Eona's lips as she lay on the ground, face tipped towards the ceiling and eyes closed. She thought about what Gadara had said but didn't respond. She pondered on it for a few moments more before replying. "Maybe in a little while, I don't know about you but I haven't gotten to fully explore these caverns yet. Would you like to explore them with me?" Her voice was still barely above a whisper as she spoke to Gadara. She didn't make a move to get up yet, instead laying and listening to the water drip.

The incubus heard her speak about going further into the area and a small smirk came up over his lips by a inch as he nodded but was certain that she could not see him. Gadara merely shifted himself some to where he was on his knees and his tail waved elegantly from side to side as he speaks. "Aye.", this was his response and it of course meant yes or maybe more or less under the same term as sure.

Eona stretched, stood up, then stretched once more. She looked around pondering what direction they should go first. After looking around for a few minutes she shrugged and looked over at Gadara. "Do you want to lead the way? I can't decide which way we should go first." She let out a small nervous laugh as she looked up at him. She ran a hand through her hair and adjusted her cloak.

Gadara blinked and watched as Eona stood up and when she did stand did he also stand shortly after her and looked forward before looking back to the path. Glancing from side to side did his eyes land on Eona and he clicked his tongue in a strange sounding hum before smirking. "Do I want to lead? I suppose I will for now. Do you wish to hold my hand?", his response was rather full of humor and his head leaned to the side which showed that he was trying to act innocent since he was speaking of simple humor.

Eona giggled and smiled at him. "No thank you haha, I don't often hold hands with people I've just met." She laughed and a smirk danced across her lips. "So, which way are we heading then?" The were looked up at him as her tail waved back and forth under her cloak. She had to straightened out her cloak once again, pulling it back into place since her tail had shifted it some.

The incubus couldn't help but openly shrug his arms up with his hands out as he looked toward Eona. "I understand. Just trying to make sure we don't get lost is all?", he teased again before lowering his arms and looking forward again and so he shifted his head forward which was a clear sign to keep moving ahead. "For now we should move on in this direction, neh?", he tilted his head to the side in blank thought before calmly shrugging again before walking forward with his tail freely following him as if it were cutting through the air.

Eona shrugged, he did have a point. She walked up next to him and held her hand out to him. "That's a very good point, it would be a pity if one of us got lost in here." She grinned up at him, using her other hand to brush her hair away from her face once again. Her tail continued to sway back and forth behind her and her ears twitched slightly.

Gadara looked toward Eona when she walked up and seeing that she held her hand out did he let out a small chuckle with his eyes closed. The incubus placed his own hand into her waiting one and gave it a rather unique squeeze which felt secure. The caverns became quite a place though to explore since everything was so interesting and it was its own place. Gadara walked in a pace to where Eona can keep up while as keep a hold of her hand. "It is vast in here.", he said this rather openly with a calm look over his features. The tail which belonged to the incubus swayed some and touched Eona's tail which made its owner close his eyes and smirk slightly. "Sorry."

Eona smiled up at Gadara and returned the squeeze. "Yes It really is isn't it?" She looked around at the enormous caverns as they walked. Her face appeared a shade of light pink when Gadara's tail brushed hers. Her grip on his hand tightened ever so slightly as her tail flicked towards the demon. "It's alright, don't worry about it." Her voice was softer once again and she glanced down at the ground, avoiding Gadara's eyes.
