<br> Soleil Luna Oriana
<br>Autumn 20th
<br>Nighttime
[/align]


<br>
<br>
On the night of autumn 20th, the Sapphire Glade was alight with fireflies and blossoms. Sure, the beautiful glade was said to be a wonderful place for young lovers, but the one female that had surprisingly found the gorgeous place was alone.
<br>
<br>

Soleil Luna Oriana, a rather snobbish woman if you will, sat on the ground. The scent of the flowers was thick in the strangely warm air and it very well overpowered Soleil’s strong, flowery, Japanese cherry blossom perfume.
<br>
<br>

A light wind found its way tugging at the short black skirt that Soleil was wearing, lifting it up slightly so, had someone been around, one could see her cotton pink panties. With a heavy sigh, she placed her delicately strong hands, such an onomatopoeia, upon her skirt, holding it down from the prying wind.
<br>
<br>

In a rather unusual mode, Soleil had her blonde hair down to its full length, mid-back. It was straight as if she had straightened it somehow, however she had not. With another sigh, this time more or less exasperated, Soleil fell back onto the ground so that she was looking up at the fireflies twinkling like the many lights in Paris.
<br>
<br>

With her perfect blonde hair splayed under her like a fan and her arms forming somewhat of an arch over her head on the ground, Soleil closed her emerald eyes and pictured the home that she missed so much.
<br>
<br>

Again, the wind rustled at her clothing—this time her pink tee-shirt was also blown up slightly at the end, revealing some of her stomach. She didn’t even bother with it this time, what was the point if no one else was here to see it?
<br>
<br>

Soleil took in some deep breathes, calming herself. Had she been in one of her normal moods then she probably would not have been in such a place. She most likely would’ve been at the bar, downing a beer and having a good time, but no, she was homesick even though she desperately tried not to be.
<br>
<br>

She had once expressed to her new employee, Aleksander, that she had missed her home, but no one else knew, not that Soleil had met much of anyone else. The only one she truly interacted with was Aleksander and it was incredibly hard to take him serious after seeing him in a lion suit—even if she had been the evil mastermind behind the whole ordeal.
<br>
<br>

Right now, she just wanted to picture Paris. It brought her a calming sensation to her homesickness to remember all the good times she had in Paris as she expelled the bad ones. Who wanted to remember Lucus, the mad man she had been destined to marry, when they thought of home? Not Soleil, that was for sure.
<br>
<br>

Soleil didn’t even want to remember her parents; they weren’t the nicest of people. Not that she was saying that they were mean and beat her or anything of the sorts, but that they were not loving and they obviously did not care for Soleil’s happiness as they tried to force her into a marriage that could very well have endangered her life.
<br>
<br>

Now with thoughts of her parents and Lucus in her mind, blocking out the lovely images of the Eiffel Tower or the lovely carriage rides in the winter’s snow, Soleil sat up in a rush. Her hair flew around her as it tried to settle in the way it had been and not succeeding.
<br>
<br>

Soleil blew her bangs from her eyes, the eyes that suddenly held a certain fire. She jumped up from her spot. Instantly, Soleil punched a fist through the firefly infested air. She did this a few times while alternating hands. She was rivaled up at the thought of “those people.” They had ruined Paris, ruined France for her.
<br>
<br>

“Yah!” The French accented woman yelled as she twirled and kicked her high heeled foot into the air, hitting nothing but the imagined images of the ones she hated. Slowly, she lowered her leg from the position she had been holding and allowed her breath to go in and out, in and out. She let her bangs fall over her eyes while also letting her hair fall over her shoulders.
<br>

Elijiah Fenningway[/align]
<br>
<br>
Though it was now nighttime, the Sapphire Glade was ablae with lights. The light of fireflies that is. Elijiah Fenningway, a young man with quite a lot of energy, made his way into the glade resting his fishing pole on his shoulder. He did not expect to find a place to fish around here; only a nice scenery.<br>
<br>
And what a scene it was. Perfect for a nightly stroll. Elijiah's deep chocolate eyes glanced around from the blossoming trees, to the small critters that scurried along the ground. He had heard the rumors of this place, and now understood that they were absolutely correct. An everlasting spring; a beautiful blessing.<br>
<br>
Elijiah had also heard stories about this place being a great spot for young lovers. It was a silly idea to Elijiah, but he could understand why it was so. Not only was the scenery wonderfully romantic, but the scent of the fresh blossoms filled the glade with sweet scents. Taking a deep breath, Elijiah took in the wonders of the Sapphire Glade, thinking he was all alone.<br>
<br>
Of course, he soon realized he was not the only one there. Off a little ways, he heard someone yell. The voice was distinctly feminine, and sounded full of rage. Surprised, Elijiah turned towards the source of the sound, and walked in said direction. Taking careful steps, for he did not want to surprise whoever was there, Elijiah came into view of the young woman. <br>
<br>
In the light of the fireflies, Elijiah had no way of describing her. It wasn't that he found her absolutely stunning with her small figure and her blond hair that shone in the dim lights, but that he couldn't think of a way to describe every aspect of her. He had come up behind her after all.<br>
<br>
"Good evening, Miss." Elijiah said in his tenor voice. Why waste time with silence when one could start a friendly conversation. Though, he hoped that he wasn't interrupting anything important, or that she didn't want to be bothered at that particular moment. All Elijiah meant was to be friendly, though that trait occasionally backfired on him.

<br> Soleil Luna Oriana
<br>Autumn 20th
<br>Nighttime
[/align]


<br>
<br>Soleil had just let her self stand there, taking calming breaths. It was almost a meditation, she was sick of being angry at them all the time. She was sick of being plagued by memories of them all the time. She was just sick of all of that.
<br>
<br>

While Soleil seemed to be in her own little world, she had not noticed anyone walking in the Sapphire Glade or that they had walked up behind her. So when the tenor voice of a young man spoke, simply saying good evening, Soleil couldn’t help but jump in surprise.
<br>
<br>

It was an embarrassing thing to be surprised, especially when in the result of being surprised was jumping and—much to Soleil’s dismay—gasping. Turning sharply, causing her pale blonde hair to whirl around her, she faced the person who had spoken. Her green eyes seemed to naturally narrow as if she had no control of it.
<br>
<br>

Without much intention, she allowed her eyes to run up and down the young man, he must’ve been a year of two younger then she even if he was nine inches taller then her. He had semi-spiked, reddish-auburn hair that was kept out his eyes by a bandana. Her narrowed green eyes seemed to almost glare into the young man’s deep chocolate eyes for an instant before letting up, putting the façade back into affect for now there was a person around.
<br>
<br>

“…” There was silence at first as Soleil let her hands rest on her hips before taking in a breath to talk. “Bon soir, Monsieur. May I ask the name of the man who has just startled moi?” Her voice was fast and heavily accented. More or less, it sounded like this, “Bon swar, Meuh-see-euh. May I ask zhe name of zhe man oo haz just startled mwuah?”
<br>
<br>

Elijiah Fenningway[/align]<br>
<br>
<br>
Elijiah was taken slightly off guard when the woman in front of him jumpped in surprise. He haden't meant to scare her, but it seemed he did just this. Apparently, she did not like her own reaction, as she turned and narrowed her now visible green eyes. To keep the mood peacefull, Elijiah just smiled as though her reaction hadn't phased him in any way.<br>
<br>
The young woman's expression while she looked Elijiah over did not seem friendly at first, but that impression changed when she spoke. Though her attitude may not have been the friendliest, at least she took the time to speak to Elijiah. That was enough to keep him in a good mood. <br>
<br>
And even though it took a few extra moments for Elijiah to comprehend what she was saying, for her French accent was stong and her voice quick paced, he responded in a delightful tone to her question.<br>
<br>
"The name's Elijiah Fenningway, Miss. And I'm sorry to have startled you." Glancing around a little, so as not to seem like he was staring, Elijiah kept his smile and asked a question himself. "Is it alright of me to ask for your name?"<br>

“I suppose it cannot be helped, as long as you did not do it on purpose then I suppose I can accept your apology Monsieur Elijiah Fenningway,” Soleil allowed her hands to fall from the hips only to be crossed under her bosom. She had no problem in staring at the young man and she didn’t really care at this point if he noticed, it wasn’t like she was falling in love with him or anything.
<br>
<br>

Soleil decided that since the young man had given her his name she might as well give him hers. It was the polite, right thing to do and if she refused she would seem like a hypocrite for asking for his name. So, after running her red tongue over her pink lips, she told him.
<br>
<br>

“I am Soleil Luna Oriana,” Now she let her hands fall from being crossed as she gently grabbed the edges of her black mini-skirt and curtsied slightly. It was her way of a greeting, the way she had been raised; raised by those stupid people who plagued her every thought of Paris.
<br>
<br>

“I have never seen you around before, anywhere for that matter. Either I am simply too new to have seen you or it is the other way around. Or it could simply be that we’ve just never encountered each other, but have been here around the same amount of time. I suppose it doesn’t matter much, it was just merely small talk,” Soleil told him with a wave of her hand, somewhat dismissing what she had said as if it really didn’t matter for. It must be noted that Soleil does not like the silence, so when silence threatens to approach, she will talk of random topics.

<br>
<br>
Elijiah simply nodded at the young woman's response. It was indeed true that he had not meant to startle her in such a way; only wanted to be friendly. Something about her posture did strike him as different though. It was nothing too noticeable, but one of the little things Elijiah always seemed to take note of for some strange reason.<br>
<br>
She spoke her name, Soleil, and curtsied. Not only did her voice hint at the fact that she was from France, but her name did too. At least she was a polite French Woman.<br>
<br>
"It's a pleasure to meet you Miss Soleil." Elijiah did his best to sound polite in return. While he wasn't raised as such, it was something he picked up along the way, and hadn't practiced with much. Reaching up to scratch his head, Elijiah replied to Soleil's new question.<br>
<br>
"Well whichever way it is, I will admit that I just moved here." He lightly tapped the end of his worn out fishing pole. "I always dreamed of leaving my home and coming to the ocean, so why not move to a place surrounded by it?" Not knowing whether it was good or bad to have gotten Soleil to talk so much, Elijiah just continued on with the "small talk." It was the best way to keep the silence away, and the atmosphere calm and friendly after all.

<br>
<br>“Oui, I know,” It was more or less under her breath, but that was her true response to the “It’s a pleasure to meet you.” It was something she thought of often, it was a pleasure to meet her, but for some reason she decided to say it back. “The pleasure is all mine, I’m sure.”
<br>
<br>

“I see, so you’ve just moved here as well, but sounds like for better reasons then I,” The end of which she said was a bit more silent. It was a good reason to move here, to go to the ocean and be surrounded by it. Soleil had been to the beach, the ocean, but she never really swam in it or fished in it or anything of the sorts. She simply didn’t fish, why would she? She couldn’t cook to save her life.
<br>
<br>

“So, hum, fishing…” She needed words to say and she didn’t want to sound like a complete idiot. With a slow movement of her hand, she flipped her hair over her shoulder. “…is it a hobby? A career? I do not know much of such a sport or whatever it is called. Fish may be tasty, but they are sort of creepy when alive.”
<br>
<br>

Oh how small talk was getting the best of her, she was talking about fishing, but she needed something to talk about otherwise there would be silence and with silence came awkwardness and Soleil didn’t want to feel awkward. So, the small talk would continue for now until the topic changed or one of the two left and Soleil hadn’t really planned on leaving anytime soon.

<br>
<br>
Elijiah was enjoying the conversation he had gotten himself into, even if it had no main topic. Small was always a blessing when there was nothing else to do.<br>
<br>
"Better reasons, huh?" He muttered, more to himself than to Soleil. Again he looked at the tip of his old fishing pole. As much as he loved the thing, it wouldn't last for much longer. A replacement would be needed. <br>
<br>
"Well, I guess you could call it both. I fish as both a hobby, and it give me a pretty good souce of income. Though, fish can be strange with their big eyes and slippery scales, I personally enjoy looking at live ones." Elijiah laughed heartily before continuing on. "But, I must admit, I prefer them dead and on my dinner plate."

<br>
<br>Soleil listened earnestly as Elijiah explained that fishing, to him, was both a hobby and a source of income. That was a nice thought, using your hobby for an income—Soleil did it with her paintings and stuffed animals that she created. Of course, those hadn’t been her only hobbies and it was quite sure she could do other things for an income such as singing, playing the piano, or such like that, but most people had more then one hobby.
<br>
<br>

Soleil smiled, slightly anyway, when Elijiah laughed heartily and explained that while he liked watching them fish while they were alive, he liked them better when they were dead and on his plate. Soleil shivered inwardly—unnoticeably—when she thought of the slimy beasts. How would one call such a reaction? Girlish? That was how Soleil was.
<br>
<br>

“Ohm, that is how I like them as well—dead and on ma plate, however fish can be, uh, expensive and I currently do not have all the money I use to so, I do not eat it often,” Soleil wouldn’t openly admit right away that she couldn’t cook to save her life, who would want to admit their weaknesses first thing to a stranger. “Do you cook them?” She asked with wide, innocently looking, green eyes.
<br>
