Searching for Bones [Ouranus // Open]

[Dona]

Now where did I leave that village? Luxord thought to himself as he walked down the streets of Alexandria. It's not that he lost or misplaced his own home village, it's just that he forgot where he it was. It was some odd mix of dying twice that ruined his memory of his first living life. Ah well, death will do that to you. Maybe he would have tea with someone else. A pity really, he was really looking forward to tea with his mother. As dead as she may be. At least the living could play a game with him. That was one of the many boons of the living. Oh and the fact that they had a heart beat.

Crystal blue eyes scanned the crowd, looking for someone to have tea with. Although he seemed like a rather strange man. His face still obscured by the cowl of his hood, which only gave him a creepy aura. As if he was watching the city live and breathe before him. Perhaps he was, watching the city live. Wondering if any of them died like him, if any of them could lead him to her... To his village where her bones rested. Maybe she would be alive, like how he was alive. And maybe, just maybe she could give him what he really desired.

But perhaps he would enjoy a game first. The man found a small little restaurant with an out door sitting area. Selecting a table close to the crowd the man withdrew his deck of cards and began to shuffle. As people walked by he would invite them to a game, but his cowl and mysterious appearance made most shy away from him. He wondered who would play with him first. He really hoped someone would show up soon. He longed to play another game. They made him feel alive.

[Larxene]

Alexandria again...well, she was actually here to bask in the depression of the place. the queen was dead and all because of her. Of course, she didn't expect the response fro the queen...Kuja didn't even suspect it was her. She told the puppet who she was...and she was dying. And she got him back for it...it was truly wonderful to see a puppet get revenge over the master.

Larxene was in a particular good mood; her confusion had subsided quite a bit after being here long enough...she may have given in. But...maybe she didn't. Nevertheless, Larxene watched with interest as she walked by people. She didn't wear her hood; she looked far too suspicious especially at a time like this. Larxene wore a simply sun dress (which didn't really match her but no one seems to care).

She stopped when someone approached the Gambler. She, first of all, noticed him; their organization cloak was unmistakable. Second reason was she wanted to see him lose. Luxord was an excellent gambler; she wouldn't dare play a game with him. She watched from the sidelines, in interest, and watch him win or lose. Despite what the outcome was, when he moved on, Larxene took his place.

"Why hello there dear Luxord. It has been such a terribly long time since we've seen each other." She wasn't exactly sure how Luxord viewed her or if he even cared she betrayed the organization; finding the loyalty of a gambler was hard unless one's a casino. She, nor the organization, certainly wasn't a casino.

[Ouranus Nova]

"I only gamble with my life, I never gamble with money."

Ouranus had a kind smile on her face as she got some of the cards that she been able to work with. After doing enough with the tetra master game, she politely got her cards and walked from the table. It was rare for Ouranus to play cards, but usually she needs something to help break the tension. And since she doesn't drink, she tries to find other outlets to find some solace other than being in her own mind. As her golden eyes looked around as she saw a pair of individuals in black uniforms. They didn't really register with anything she had currently encountered yet. But it was clear that since their clothes matched, then they must have been connected in some way. Perhaps a different order from another world. Though something told her in the back of her mind to watch out, still her curiosity got the best of her once again. She walked over to the table, smiling kindly as she looked at them both. "Room for one more?"

"I only gamble with my life, I never gamble with money."

They were distant, only on the fringes of Luxord's hearing. Yet his mind focused solely on them. They were powerful ones, the kind that would draw his attention. Beneath his cowl the man's crystal blue eyes drew to the silver haired girl that walked the streets of Alexander with her own deck of cards. She seemed strange, with her metallic hair color and pristine yellow eyes. Perhaps he wasn't the only abnormal person on this main road. He made his way towards the girl, his own deck of fate firmly grasped in his hands. He had no intention of letting this one go. Who knew what she would put up in a gentleman's bet.

Yet before he could reach the girl another intercepted him, with the intention of conversation. Luxord simply stared at his new companion. If he could feel shock this is where the part where his mouth would be agape. Larxene, the very nobody that stood before him, was dead. Slain by the keybearer himself. Well, Luxord himself had died yet he did not except the others to return. He assumed it had to do with his own abilities, yet here Larxene was. Which meant the others must be alive too... Xenmas's game just got far more interesting. Luxord drew his own cowl back in greetings to his "ally", the very same one that plotted to slaughter and take Xenmas's place along with that Marluxia. They made the game all the more interesting. "Ah, it is quite a spectacle to see you here. I had been informed that the Savage Nymph had saw her end at the hands of the boy" Luxord said off handily, his interests already drawn else where.

The young girl, the one with metallic hair was approaching him. Oh how he wanted to gamble with this child. She looked so innocent, so gullible, so easy to win her heart and not her love. No he wanted her heart, the one filled with all her emotions. Her spirit you could say. The woman spoke to him first, asking to join their game. He found it interesting, how she thought that Larxene and him were playing a game. Larxene was far to savage for Luxord's own interests. "Of course there is capacity for another within our little game," Luxord said, giving a little bow to Ouranus. His back was turned to Larxene. He would ignore her for now, this girl had greater potential.

[Ouranus Nova]

There is something more to this.

Keep your wits about you Ouranus. Do not let your guard down with them.

Ouranus didn't really speak much as she looked at them both. For a moment she actually did think that the two were possibly father and daughter. Of course she didn't know for sure if they were a part of some kind of group. Naturally there had to be a connection with them. She noticed the clothes both he and the girl had worn. They seemed to match, so it had to be some kind of connection. But even with those thoughts, she had her curiousity get the best of her. She pulled up a seat and then sat down, smiling kindly and with respect to the older gentleman. "Thank you sir," she said kindly. She then looked at the table again as she spoke. "I'm not guessing you are from the kingdom, but I think you might know some more card games than what I know." She showed him one of the cards she had on her person. It had the picture of a flan monster with a variety of arrows and a combination of numbers and letters.
