Khongol thinks he hears a light thud but ignores it. He watches Latias closely as he says, "Shimizu was watching us... Cal and I had some fun... Shim got roasted and "fought" back. I hung him upside down and he took it badly. Meant to be innocent fun. I think there is something else going on. though Whether he wants us to know or not. Maybe he is lonely or wants to fit in... or he is having girl troubles. Who knows?"

Latias nods. He sees Shimizu give him a sort of sign Latias is confused and yells, "WHAT?"
He didn't know that it was supposed to mean keep quiet. Latias barely ever gets out, so he wouldn't know these things off hand like that.

Shimizu was walking over to the bushes. He heard a loud 'what?' behind him that made him cringe. "Oh god..." he said, smacking his forehead. He hurried around the corner so if anyone turned around he couldn't be seen. He sat down behind a rock and started rubbing his temples slowly to clear his mind better. He decided to meditate for a bit. He crossed his legs with great difficulty and closed his eyes. He sat there for 5 minutes, while his forehead was crinkling with frustration. He let out an 'argh' as he dropped his hands and uncrossed his legs. Meditation never worked for him when he was angry.

Calypso looked crossly at Latias, and perhaps Khongol for sympathizing with Shimizu. "He's just a spoiled child. He'll get over it. You shouldn't worry over him so much." Calypso walked away. No one seemed to get that if Shimizu had too much of that love and care stuff that he wasn't accustomed to, he'd get reliant, and it would simply hurt him.

Khongol shrugs to Latias. "Or perhaps Calypso is right. He does know Shimizu best of us all." He quickly wanders to catch up with Cal while the Berserker was going to head for the shower. 'So much for the jog...'
Upon reaching the half-phoenix he states, "Maybe he is spoiled. Maybe not. If you care at all about him we cannot let him to become what we are. At very least for Quarre... since that dink seems to be sweet on her. Just food for thought." With that Khongol continues on his own way leaving Calypso for a change as opposed to Cal leaving first.

Dedomi walks back out of his room for the first time in way too long. He stretches his legs and heads down to the kitchen. There he doesn't feel the need to bother anyone, so he makes his own breakfast.
After breakfast he went in search for Calypso. He wandered lost in the keep, his mind wandering as well.

Latias watched Calypso and Khongol walk away. Latias sighed. "Maybe some people need a little bit of love then." Latias walked back to the kitchen, and noticed someone had breakfast.
"WHAT?" Was his reaction. "I'm the cook! Come bug ME when you're hungry!" Now that Latias felt like shit, he went and sat on a chair to mope, still in the kitchen. "Why didn't they come and ask? I would have done it... it's because of these, isn't it?" he reached up and grabbed his ears. "Or maybe..." he grabbed his tail and pulled it in front of him. Latias sighed heavily.

Calypso stormed the Keep. He was beginning to remember why he was alone so often. People like Shimizu, Khongol, and Latias. And worst of all, those combined! Calypso encountered Dedomi roaming the keep. He remembered the training schedule he was to keep with the coming magician. "I'm right here." Calypso says to Dedomi. "Come find me after your twenty laps. I trust you won't cheat yourself."
Calypso keep walking in anger, knowing he needs a shower, but not wanting to come face to face with the berserker, or anyone else, anytime soon.

Khongol enjoys his shower gives him time to think. (ooc: they all have private showers right? lol) He stands facing the wall that the water sprays from, hands against it, head hanging down staring at the floor. His mohawk brushes the wall. The water beats his shoulders and back. "A little at a time... A little at a time..."
He isn't mad at anyone save himself. And then he is more disappointed than angry. He stands in the shower until his water goes from hot to freezing. The chill reminds him of home. "I've been here only a couple weeks and am already longing for my village? They have some of the best warriors defending her. They don't need me. This is far too important. If anything comes through that gate, by the gods, there will be a Hackinemupp here too. I swear it." He pounds the wall with an open palm and shakes some dust from the ceiling.
He wraps a towel 'round his waist and grabs his clothing and goes into his room where he changes and grabs his axes. He walks to his private spot over the rise for some throwing and battle-ax exercises. 'This shouldn't even raise a sweat anymore.'

Latias felt bad about Calypso. He wanted to apologize, so he walked after the phoenix. "Calypso!" He called over to him, "I'm sorry! I didn't mean to upset you. I really didn't. I'd worry about you if you threw a tempertantrum like that. I just wanted to know what happened. Please forgive me? PLEASE?" he begged. Taking a hold of Calypso's right arm.

Shimizu walked back inside after an hour or two. He had his own shower in his room. It was relaxing, but it made him think too much. He stared at the shower head, getting water sprayed into his eyes. "Always me..." he muttered.
After his shower, he dressed himself and wandered around the halls. He eventually went back to the room and practiced with the daggers he had used before. He was doing this in a half-assed manner, since his mind was else where.

[OoC: Wasn't sure, wanted to be on safe side.)
Calypso dragged Latias for some ways before noticing he had the extra baggage pleading for forgiveness. "IT'S NOT YOU!!" Calypso roared at him, probably making the little fox boy feel very small and insignificant. "I apologize for yelling," Calypso said quickly. "I hate the world. I hate everyone in it, so I guess it's you, but for you it is not anything personal. Take pride and consolance in that. But that berserker..." Calypso was simply fuming about everything. He blamed it on Khongol, focused his anger on Khongol, but that was because Khongol was the only one who could handle it. He would, after all, forgive Calypso. He always did.
But it occaisionally called for Calypso to be a tad human, and swallow his pride, take something back that he said, or apologize. Calypso wished to stay away from life for awhile, but he knew that was not possible.

Khongol grows bored with merely throwing his axes. He is still p*ssed over what transpired. 'Screw this.' He leaves his battle ax resting against the tree and his six throwing axes in the target (all tightly packed in the center of the circular log). He walks into the training room with no words and finds a dummy and grabs it. Then goes to the library and takes of of the magik-firing ones he heard of. Carrying them (one under each arm). He returns to his spot silence. He sets up the dummies (setting the magik one to "fire")and focuses on the first. In his minds eye it becomes Shimizu.
Khongol begins to punch and kick the dummy. "Not enough." He grabs his battle ax. He enters a frenzy and starts to hack at the dummy. When he comes to he sees it is laying on the ground in a pool of blood. He shakes his head and see the dummy split from head to stand, straw spread around it. He turns to the magik one now. 'Shimizu will hate me for this... screw him.' He decides to train his new ability. The one he learned just a couple weeks ago. Cascading Rage.
His flesh rips under the strain. The anger is intense. He charges the dummy with a bellow. His chops knocks Calypso back. He reacts with a fireball. Khongol blocks the first couple with his ax. He chops the gut of Calypso. The half-phoenix blocks with his twin swords and fireballs at the Berserker. Khongol quickly chops the flame shot in half horizontally. Calypso's headless body hits the ground. Khongo raises his ax and splits the half-phoenix's in half.
Khongol drops to his knees panting for breath. The Rage passes and he sees the dummies destroyed. He stands up and walks past a few of the others. If they notice him covered in blood he doesn't care he walks to his shower again. When he is clean he goes to the portal room again to sit. At least for a while.

Latias was recognized with anger. Immediately, Latias dropped to the floor and covered his ears in response to the loud sound. He looked back up at Calypso, hearing the rest of what he had to say. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to upset you." he mumbled. Calypso wanted to get away from life? Latias wasn't sure why. It was only a little squabble, no one was dead, so why be so angry and upset? Why couldn't everyone just get over it?
Latias didn't realize that not everyone had the forgiving capacity he had. Latias could forgive in a heartbeat. But the others couldn't. Latias couldn't understand that. He wandered through the halls, and saw Khongol. He took a few steps closer, "Khongol? Where'd all that blood come from?" Khongol ignores him and keeps walking. Latias is hurt by this action. "Khongol?" he whimpers, ears turned back.

[OOC; Again, are you guys mad at me?]
Shimizu walked out of the training room. He sighed and walked to the portal room. He spotted Khongol, he wasn't afraid of the man, so he didn't avoid him. Shimizu walked through the room. He didn't say anything. At first. He went to the kitchen and drank some water. He walked back into the other room where Khongol was situated.
"So... you mad at me too?" he asked, sitting himself down on the other side of the room from the berserker.
