"I would never !" Edan replied quietly, with a nice half smile "Water would be fine. Thank you."
He wasn't about to judge how Tara was living, it wasn't her fault. How could he, after all the things that he had done. He was ashamed of them, almost sickened. Edan had changed alot from the little kid.
"Please tell me everything you know about what happened to the others....and...Annette" As a young kid Annette was the only one who was nice to him. At that point in him life, he was working for a group of thugs until Annette helped him and he would nor could ever forget it.

Meri smiled for a few seconds. She looked down a little.
"Tara and I.. wasn't bestest friends." she answered calmly. "I'm happy she's alive.. but I don' t think she'd wanna see me."
----
She poured him a cup, sat with him, and made room on the table, moving papers, her keys and a few other things to the floor.
"..I don't know much." she admitted, folding her arms. "You already know how the group saw me when I left. Annette hated me. Meri died after that.. place.. after the things they did to her.. you didn't like me much either, cause of Annette."
She frowned a little. "... I stayed with her and Cael for a while. She... went crazy, you know? He was abusive. She was pregnant.. and he fooled around on her."
She sighed. "I don't know what to say. I thought everyone was gone after that.. HB and Daniel are both dead. Cael would probably just come at me again.. so I came here."
She looked down. "..he found me today."

He pouted a little, then lifted her chin up gently with two of his almost skeletal fingers.
"Hey hey now, why wouldn't she want to see you miss meri?...you're a perfectly nice person, er i mean water sprite....from what i gathered, thing haven't been going too well for her....seeing a friendly face may make her happy and less....bitter. You dont have to go see her if you dont wanna, i'm just saying it might make her feel better."

Edan took a drink from the glass he was given, listening quietly to what Tara was telling him. Strangly enough the part that really hit him first was 'you didn't like me much either, cause of Annette'. Was he really that mean to her before. He was upset with himself, he should be carrying more about what happened to Annette than how Tara felt. Still...he didn't think that Annette would have wanted him to be sad.
"Its not that I didn't like you..its just" he paused for a second trying to find the right words "Annette was the first person to really care about me..if you could call it carrying". The last part was mumbled under his breath.
It took some time for the part about Cael to hit him "Cael..he found you? Is he near?"

Something whirled through the young girl's mind then, and Meri's eyes shocked wide.
Shutup.. be quiet and it won't hurt... don't move... do you like it? I know you do...
She pushed him back, not meaning to be forceful. He was scaring her. She was so scared.
"..don't.." she answered. "..y-you can't.."
----
Tara moved her finger around the top of her glass.
"..he has a slave ring." she answered quietly. "A group of men that destroy villages, rape women and children.. it's disgusting.."
She swallowed. "Bastard tried to mess with me today too.. there was.. this kid. A very small kid.. and he has her now.. so I gotta get her back.. but I can't till morning.."

Edan put his glass down. He knew Cael was bad, but still a slave ring. He didn't think that Cael would do that.
"I will help you in the morning..I think Annette would want me to" he replied again smiling, trying to show that to Tara that he wasn't at all upset with her and that he never really hated her.

The young girl's actions surprised kougi and he stepped back a little; putting his hands up in a defensive mannor
"i'm so sorry miss meri, i'm so sorry...what did i do? did i offend you? please forgive me i only tried to cheer you up....i'll go away now if you want.."
he softly said
"i'm sorry if i upset you, i...shouldn't have touched you, it was rude of me...what was i thinking, touching someone's chin that i just met.."

Tara played dubiously with the ring on her finger.
She didn't know why she kept it. He wasn't coming back. And she'd slept with a lot of other people since then..
They were right about her.. but she'd hated herself then, and now wasn't much better...
She nodded. "..yeah. Thanks." she answered. "..I don't want anyone else to die cause of his crap."
She looked up. "Do you smoke?"
----
Meri was shivering. She'd knocked down her oranges.
He couldn't do that. He shouldn't.
"..please.. don't touch me. Anymore. Ever." she answered nervously. "Promise. I.. I'm sorry, but you can't.."

The towering kougi knelt down and started picking up her oranges and putting them back on her stall, brushing off the dirt of course.
"I'm terribly sorry miss meri, i only meant it as a friendly guesture....oh god...please dont be so afraid miss meri, i would never harm anyone...i wont do that again i promise...See? i'm picking up your oranges, i'm not a bad person....well i sorta caused them to be knocked over so i suppose that dont count..."

"I gave that up a little while ago" Edan replied "However thank you. What I really need is a beer..I have been on the road for so long".
He noticed what she was doing with the ring on her finger "You miss him dont you."

Denny had been wandering after the two until they reached her house, apparently they had forgotten about him, as, by the time he got to the door, it was shut. He stood simply, looking at it. It dawned on him he had been shut out.
"aw, crap." He though, turning to leave, but, what about that girl in the morning, maybe he'll stick around, and just follow them when they leave. He stopped and sat down next to the door.

Meri frowned, eyes down a little. She couldn't explain this at all.
"..I'm sorry." she answered, starting to pick them up. She didn't know what she was thinking. "...I.. can't explan.."
----
Tara frowned a little. She closed her hand a little.
".. doesn't matter if I do.." she answered. "He's not coming back. It's my fault his gone anyway.. jealous Ex and all.."

"It was never your fault..and don't ever think that missing someone is wrong" Edan replied "Even if he isn't around it is always better to remember them."
"I wasn't around at the end..how did Meri die?" He asked. The last time he knew, Meri had left with Camden. He didn't know she had died. Meri and him and become close while they were captured and he came to think of her more as a sister than that of just a friend.

Kougi continued helping her pick up oranges
After a little while he states quietly
"You dont have to explain meri, it's alright. It's obvious some sick disgusting vermin has.....violated you in some mannor. I'm truly sorry miss meri, i will never know your pain....but i promise i am not a bad person, i am just a, very odd person. Hell i'm only 17....so please dont be afraid....i'm your friend"
