((I have nothing against you Dragon, I'm just responding on how Amara would sweatdrop )) Amara looked at Anya blankly. "Um...maybe because me and Lucien were friends before all of this transpired...not because I have this power" she told her. "I don't think I'm on high horse or better than anyone, I see everyone equally" she told her. Approaching Anya she looked at her. "I'll just be blunt...you're a b***h Anya...all that aggression would be great for the battle field, but not amongst us" she said trying to maintain cool.

((that's okay. sweatdrop I know it's only Amara talking. lol))
Letting out a sigh, Anya shook her head a little. "Not like I haven't heard that petty insult before." Anya replied at a mutter, rolling her eyes again. "I'm not always like this okay?" she finally said to Amara. It was a little annoying how Amara was trying to get under her skin and trying to tell her what to do and how to act. "I've had stuff going on that you probably wouldn't understand anyway, so just leave me alone, alright?"

Amara soon felt real genuine emotion from Anya. She felt that this was actually the time to talk and get to know the girl. "Listen...I'm sorry for calling you a b***h...I've been called on several times in my life" she said with a small chuckle. When Anya had said her last sentence she frowned. "I haven't read your mind Anya...but I have read your feelings...so I can sort of understand" she told her. "I've found it's theraputic to at least talk about it with someone" she said as she slowed her walking down to match Anya's. "I'm sorry for trying to tell you what to do...I just want people to see Lucien as the great person I know he is" she said. "Do you think you can trust me enough to at least talk to me? I'll tell you about me as well...that way...we'll both be giving of ourselves" she told her.

Anya stopped walking and turned to look at Amara for a moment. She was a little bit confused now because just a second ago, she was being called a b***h and now Amara was suddenly saying she understood how she was feeling? "You do realize that you don't make any sense right now, right?" she asked, rhetorically yet again. "What with calling me a b***h a second ago and suddenly switching to 'understanding mode'. It's just weird because you think you can understand how I feel just because you've been called a b***h too?" Anya wasn't trying to say this to be defensive or anything. She was just confused by Amara offering to listen to her story out of the blue.
"Look, the way I've been acting isn't just because of Lucien. It's whole lot of other things that have happened in the last year. With Che dying and Lucien taking his place and placing himself above us all just because he thinks he can be better than what Che was. Then, the stuff with how that b*****d Will has been treating me. Along with finding out one person I thought I accidentally killed is alive and tries to kill me, AND my past coming back to haunt me as well! Let's just say it might be too much for me to handle." This was a rare moment in Anya's behavior that she actually admitted that she felt overwhelmed. She wasn't the type to go around sharing her life story with people. She felt that if she kept things hidden from people, she wouldn't get attached to them and end up losing them through something that she might do.

Amara looked at Anya. "I'm sorry, I didn't explain myself, I can literally feel how you feel...the psychic ability of empathy" she said. "I was just letting you know that I've been called a b***h as well, the only reason I appologized is because I can feel your hurt and overwhelmed feeling" she told her. As she listened she frowned. "Listen as far as Lucien....I've been inside of that man's head...the last thing he want's to make you feel like is that he's above you...he just want's a better future for OWLs and our children...and our children's children" she told her. "Will...well...I'm still having a hard time reading him but from what I've observed...I think he likes you...I could be wrong...but I remember that's how I used to act around a boy I used to like when I was younger" she told her. "As far as your past, I really don't know what to tell you...that's a personal battle..." she said.
"Well...me...I've been with the UNS since I was eight years old" she told her. "My mother and father was killed in front of me as a young girl, and I was terribly abused by my relatives here...I comitted my first murder when I was eight...the same day I aws kidnapped. I so desperately hated it here...I tried everything...I tried escaping, killing, deceit...nothing ever worked. Then I lost my best friend...my sister...Jhelae...." she said trailing off. "She was the only person who understood me...after that...I became numb" she admitted. "I had died once....and was resurrected...and through fate...I was destined to stay with the UNS not because I wanted to...but because if I would have left...Che would have been able to go back in time and kill all of us so for the better good I was forced to stay here. I've always had to plan my actions for the better good of all of us...not just myself and to be honest...I've resented a many of nights for being like that" she told her...the first time she had ever admitted how she truly felt about things.

"I honestly, don't understand how you can trust Lucien to stay true to his word even if you guys are friends..." Anya replied flatly, folding her arms across he chest. She didn't stay on that topic for too long though because she was starting to feel like Amara was trying to give her some sort of psychotherapy. She'd been through enough of that throughout her childhood in Old Berlin. "As for Will, I'm sure he's just toying with me and I doubt that he actually likes me in any sort of normal fashion. He tried to force himself on me, for god's sake!" Anya stated, referring back to the incident at the hotel in Miami. There were obvious reasons Anya didn't go into detail on that point.
Then, Amara started sharing her whole past with the UNS and such. Anya listened to the entire thing, not saying a word. "You're not the only one forced into the UNS, Amara. I've been part of it since birth. My mother was never my mother. She experimented on me, put me through training, forced me into working for the UNS. The only people I actually considered my friends and family back at the Old Berlin base, were two other people that I'd known and gone through hellish training with since the age of three. That hell on earth I was kept at? It's destroyed now, along with everyone else who was there in that city. Take one guess as to who did that. Me, that's who. I lost control and everyone died. So now I'm a mass murderer, yet god only knows why the UNS decided to keep me around and not kill me when I was seventeen. From then on, I thought I'd buried my past. I started a new life working alongside Che and everyone else.
"But no. My life decides it would be a good idea to send my adoptive brother out to kill me. And for what? Because I accidentally killed the entire city of Berlin? Because the UNS has finally decided I'm a liability? So, why am I still with the UNS? I've got nowhere else to go. Yeah, sometimes I do wish I was dead so I wouldn't have to go through any more catastrophic s***." With that, Anya stopped talking about her past.

Amara listened to what Anya had to say. "Sometimes you just have to have faith" she said referring to Lucien. When she had finished her story she said nothing for a while....she would tell her that during the year she was gone she had ended up killing a whole galaxy...but she'd save that for another time. "Well...if anytime you want to talk Anya...I'm here" she told her.

Anya simply sighed when Amara offered to listen to her if she needed it in the future. "Whatever." she replied, sounding much less angry and frustrated then when she had began her entire rant about her past. "That's not the point of my sharing all of that. The point is that I've been through hell, and that's the story behind my actions recently. It's what you wanted to know, I assume." Anya said with another sigh. With each sigh she felt better, but there was no way she'd admit out loud that talking about everything made her feel better to Amara. At least not yet. "Though, I don't know why you'd even want to know a horrible story like that anyway. You didn't have to go and share yours with me either..."

((this is the most interaction our characters have ever had heart )) Amara then looked back at Anya and smiled. "Because I know for a fact that talking about things makes things better" she said. "Then again I used to read psychology books and that's what they said" she said with a little chuckle. "But honestly, I view the UNS as a family now...I'm sorry about your past...but we can only pave our future..." she said trailing. "I find that sharing my past also helps me though" she said. "Honestly...I'm not as care free as you think...that one year that I was gone...I destroyed a whole solar system of life to be reborn" she said referring to what the Phoenix had done by consuming a star. "I still have nightmares...but...I'm trying to get through it" she said.

((yay for the milestone! lol))
"Somehow, I knew this would involve some form of psychology..." Anya said aloud, annoyed with how she managed to give in to talking freely. But she wasn't as annoyed as she felt she should be. But being who she was, Anya didn't think about it too much. "The UNS as a family, hunh? That's how I feel too..." she admitted before she could really stop herself from getting too mushy for her own liking. But that really was how she felt. She didn't really like the fact that Lucien was trying to be better than Che in every way. Maybe she just didn't like too much change.
"Did I ever say you were care free?" Anya replied, giving Amara a short of strange look. "I just thought you were a cold, heartless, and stuck-up b***h, to be honest..." Anya added, an almost sheepish look coming to her face. Then again, she hadn't really spent too much time around Amara to really get to know her either. "But looks like I was completely wrong..." That was another first for Anya: admitting she'd thought about something wrong.

Amara looked at Anya and smiled. "See I tould you people think I'm a b***h" she said with a laugh. "It looks like I was wrong about you as well" she told her. "The mind is complex thing...it really is...I mean regarding impressions and things like that. "To people who I work with and care about, I'm nothing but nice...now to the oppossing forces...I will be a ruthless and heartless b***h, and I dont mind inflicting pain amongst people" she said honestly. "Listen...I know you're older than me...but I"d really like to try and be friends" she told her. "I really can't see msyelf being too close to Kira, and Amaya, God bless her soul is so clueless" she said. "It would just be nice to have another woman to talk to...about anything" she said.

Anya blinked in surprise when Amara said she'd like to try to be friends. She hadn't expected that at all. "Uh... Sure." she answered. The reason Anya was reacting to this so awkwardly was because she hadn't expected this turn of events. "Though, I'm not sure I'm the best person to... I wasn't exactly raised around too many girls, so..." Anya didn't know what was the best way to phrase what she wanted to say, so that last part came out strangely. "I guess you could say I've been around too many guys..." she finally stated, with a sigh mixed with sheepishness, embarrassment, and slight annoyance with herself.
((gah! it's 2am! I should head off to sleep! sweatdrop lol))

((Lol, it's 1 here...well it's cool lol. We've done a lot in this short time lol)) Amara looked at Anya and giggled. "It doesn't matter...I mean you're still human...you know how to relate to another so its all good" she said. "Don't feel bad I know how it feels to be a girl working with nothing but big shells of testosterone" she said referring to the men. Looking at the woman she smiled again. "I'm sure you'll do fine...just don't put too much thought into it" she said.

"That sounds soooo cool." Roulin admitted ecstactically. "Eh. The powers I have now. My meditation isn't helping them along as much as I would like, but I have been able to turn Itachi's power into something like Magma generation and manipulation...I could imagine having a power like that..."
"Bro. That sounds like Che she's talking about honestly." Moli said as he skimmed through books that were of the current century. "I mean, he did have something like puppets backing him in his fights....but it also sounds like Thomas. Then again, I don't know the full extent of Thomas's power."
"He is the Death Owl so he may be able to conjure up zombies. Point is, she's found something odd in these pages. Hey Aimee, can you read more to us please? Heh, I feel like if I just hear about the power, I can attain it."
"Keep dreaming. You'll end up like Lucien if you could get powers that way."

Anya couldn't help but let a smirk of amusement appear on her lips at Amara's comment about the men in the UNS who were with them at the moment. "What the hell. I'll give it a shot." she replied. After that, Anya paused, considering a thought that had crossed her mind. Honestly, she couldn't help but feel better after talking to Amara about everything that had happened to her in her life, recent or past events. "Hey, Amara? Thanks... for listening..." Anya finally said before she could stop herself. "Just one thing: please don't tell anyone about anything I said, okay? I don't want people deciding to pity me or anything. That's the last thing I need right now. Especially for our b*****d of a Satan Owl to take advantage of it..."
