Rain frowned as she kicked a rock. She wasn't sure what to do, and that really bothered her. She looked around and her frown deepened. Rain silently climbed into a tree and slid onto a branch. She couldn't see very far since she wasn't that far up but that was fine with her. Rain carefully slid her legs over the branch, as her mind raced. What ever Rain choose to do would end up in violence, and possibly death. She sighed, and placed her head in her hands, like she would if she were crying, but Rain wasn't crying.

"Why so blue, Panda Bear?" Damon's voice laughed as he mocked an old Snicker's commercial he remembered. Was it Snickers? He thought so, at least. Either way, that didn't really matter. Damon came walking up the tree toward her, traveling upward at a 90 degree angle with his hands in his pockets. "What's wrong? Don't tell me you're still upset."

Rain looked up at Damon, and sighed, "No, I'm not still mad. I found answers, and they aren't exactly what I was hoping for." she muttered, a distant look in her eyes as her mind replayed what her grandfather had said.

Damon frowned, walking onto the branch and sitting down next to her. "To be honest, this soul boost thing has given me a lot more control over myself. I can tuck parts of my being away, make it so I don't really have to worry about them any more. I think I have control of it now." He blinked, then looked over at her. "But if you want, I could have a look and see what I think," he offered, holding out his fingertips toward her arm and waiting.

Rain hesitated, but complied. She moved her arm to touch his fingers, and thought about her meeting with her grandfather. Once again her Grandfather's words echoed through her head.
((XD rather short.. lol))

Damon pulled away after a moment, shaking his head. "Now I'm definitely not letting you do it. I've got it under control now, there's no way I could even start to change without catching and stopping it." He looked down at the ground, then at his palms. "I know a lot of things now that I wouldn't have ever known if I hadn't been evil for a while."

Relief filled Rain, but it didn't do much. Her grandfather's last few words kept haunting her. Finally, she managed to drown it out with random thoughts. "So... Uh, anything new besides the fact that you've gained more control?" Rain asked, trying to make conversation. ((XD couldn't think of much..))

"Not really. I haven't found anything the soul element is useful for other than the touching thing and the sensing thing." He felt a sort of anxiousness building up inside him that had been numbed before, horribly apparent now that he had subdued the part of him that seemed to make him feel invincible and emotionless. "I need to touch you one more time, to show you something else," he said finally.

"Um.. Ok." Rain said, wondering what it might be. Once again, she extended her arm.

Always one to be as vague as possible for as long as possible, Damon ignored her arm and leaned in, pressing his lips to hers. In the contact, he showed her his true self, and the fact that he did have feelings for her. An instant later it was over, and Damon was gone.

Rain's heart stopped at that instant, slowly, it began to beat again, each beat increasing in speed until it wasn't a normal heart rate. Color flooded Rain's face. Had that just happened? And what she had seen, was that real? So many thoughts flooded Rain in that instant. She looked around, but Damon seemed to be gone. Or was he watching? Rain didn't know. Slowly, she climbed down the tree and tried to stand on solid ground. Needless to say, she fell down. Rain's heart beat didn't slow and she felt like she was about to faint. Quietly, she walked back toward the academy...

Damon, meanwhile, was standing upside-down on the bottom of a higher branch, watching her. He loved dramatic effect, and thus had been sure to vanish at just the right instant. But now it looked as though she wouldn't be able to make it back to the school, at least not at this rate. With a sigh, he launched himself down and landed softly, walking after Rain. "Come on. I know I'm a ladykiller, but I figured you'd at least be able to stand up." He laughed, having spoken from right behind her.

A smile crossed Rain's dazed face. "I guess the falling happened since I was in a state of shock. You caught me completely off guard." She said softly, laughing a little.

"Well, that was essentially the point. But you gave me permission, so I have no regrets." He shivered slightly, still adjusting to the way he used to be. "Snap out of it, Rain. I didn't ask you to marry me or anything, I just kissed you."

Rain seemed to return to normal. "Thats true. I suppose in a way I did give you permission." Rain was laughing again, this time the laughter was more 'normal'. The wind blew, but it seemed only to blow toward Rain. A soft whisper filled her head, "I suppose you didn't need my help after all huh?" it chuckled. Rain simply smiled in reply to her Grandfather's whisper.
