Keldeo watched as the little person started to run. It noticed the rock and winced, expecting the little person to accidentally run into the rock.
Athena's shoulders relaxed, "At least it's nothing too worrying." She stated with a sigh.
Alice nodded, she tried to believe what Aurora was saying but still... She rose to her feet and straightened her back. "These are the only things that can control Cosmos, that i know of." She glanced down at the black plates in her arms, "They can control how much power Cosmos has and more, but i don't know a lot about it."
Cosmos glared downwards as it towered over the sentry elves, it lowered it's head to study the guards before it stepped back and let out a blood-curdling screech that felt like it was causing the ground around it and the elves to shake. It needed to find a place to rest, and getting rid of the elves shouldn't be difficult. It's empty, white eyes caught sight of the crystal like structure beyond the castle.

Damocles whimpered and said," please don't ever do that it sounds really scary and gross."

Loki didn’t respond to the question, but it was clear with the look on his face that he had, indeed, gotten into an argument with Hela. He gave a nod when she confirmed that the potions would be no problem. “Excellent. While you busy yourself with that, there is something I must see to.” By that, he meant the notebooks. Whether it was some time conundrum of the Otherworld, or something else, the writing within the notebooks was not complete and new information materialized from time to time. This was the biggest reason he clung so tightly to them. He possessed no ability to predict the future, and this was the only way he had of keeping tabs on it.
Peter gasped as the diminutive figure headed straight toward a rock, seemingly unaware. “Hey, watch out!” He dashed forward, placing himself in her path in an attempt to prevent the girl from hurting herself.
“If that’s true, and he returns, I’ll help you use them. I’m sure the others will as well.” Aurora paused. “Where did Cosmos come from? I have never saw anything like him.” She vaguely recalled someone calling him an experiment, but she didn’t know what that was.
The sentry elves began to slowly recede into the forest, weapons held out defensively as the otherworldly bird began to screech. A few of them shouted as the ground began to shake. At the first available opportunity, the remaining guards turned tail and fled back to the city in order to protect it.
“I can’t promise I won’t do any of that, but I won’t do anything really mean to you. You’re sweet. Unlike your brother. Him, I make no promises. Maybe a good scare would do him some good.” Dragon girl chuckled mischievously. “If he ever tries to bite you anymore, just let me know.” She winked.

"Only you can believe all is lost but I know with time, nothing is lost." (OOC)
"Not everyone can step the boundaries of time like you." Runa glared at Loki for a moment before smiling. "How about we both talk to her!" She suggested before looking up slightly, "And hopefully I don't manage to upset this Hela." she muttered with a nervous chuckle before looking back at Loki.
The little one stopped just short of running into Peter. She looked up at him in both shock and confusion, "Y-you can see, me?" She said and ended up falling on her butt as if she had ran into something. "B-But... They told me no one would see me." she said to no one in particular.

Keldeo wandered over towards the two, glancing at the small person curiously. "What do you mean 'no one would see you'" The creature spoke into the little person's mind.
Alice shook her head and met Aurora's gaze. "Of course you wouldn't." She explained, "Cosmos is an artificial being. It was created. Cosmic dust and gases were pressured together to form one entity."
Cosmos narrowed it's eyes as it watched many of the elves back off and run into the city in order to protect it. But it was in no need to fight. Instead, the bird could feed off the energy from the surroundings. It could gain more power. It outstretched it's four wings and flew up a few feet before soaring over the city, creating a somewhat beautiful scene. But that scene was quickly shattered if one looked into the bird's eye. The cosmic being could be beautiful... but extremely terrifying too.
(I don't think i will need to rp Cosmos now until your 'villain' finds him.(which i assume might be a while) It'll be where i said it would be waiting. It would be really difficult to describe Cosmos entering the place and litterally just 'fall asleep' there XD)

Loki was clearly very uncomfortable with the idea, but not for the reasons one might think. True; the two had recently had a spat, but things were mostly resolved. He’d even found a temporary way of communication with the goddess. No, the reason he didn’t want Runa speaking with her, was due to his and Hela’s plan in the works. The less people that knew about it, the better. “Perhaps… some other time.” In other words, never.
Peter frowned and scratched his head. “Uh, yeah. I can see you. Who are you?” He glanced up as Keldeo approached the two of them. If he’d had any idea who the girl was, or where she was from, he’d likely have ran in the opposite direction without looking back.
Dragon girl gave Damocles a creepy grin and lowered her voice in a dramatic way. “I know lots of things…” This was followed by a giggle as she spun around on one foot. “Go ahead, ask me anything.” She challenged.
Aurora’s expression was a blank one, of confusion and a lack of knowledge. Artificial? Cosmic dust and gasses? She’d never heard of such a thing. She shook her head with a blink. “How did you end up with such a creature?”
As word reached the city of Thiatona, the reaction was immediate and spread like ripples in a pond. Once lackadaisical elves were suddenly on their feet and running. Regular citizens sought shelter within the confines of the mountain itself, while the strongest and fittest soldiers armed themselves for a potential fight. (Alright, sounds good. ^^)
(Take your time Dark, and don’t feel like you need to apologize. I’m sorry you’re going through so much. I hope things get better for you and your family.)

Cosmos flew over the bewildered city and landed just ahead of the entrance to the massive crystal-like structure. It let out a low growl, talons tearing up the ground, and turned back towards the city.
Alice simply shrugged. "I was held in a lab for a few experiments after i... changed. When i escaped, i found Cosmos. I felt bad for him so i decided to, well, i guess you could say, steal Cosmos from the scientists." She frowned, unsure how to exactly answer Aurora's question.

“I’m pretty sure Kiba took your rabbit. As for the other thing… That’s trickier, with the whole time aspect. It should be less than three months from now, a few weeks before Ragnarok.” Dragon Girl lowered her voice for the last part. She was pretty sure Loki wouldn’t be allowed to hear it, but she still didn’t want to take any chances.
There was shouting and a flurry of movement as soldiers lined up, trying to form a barrier between the alien-like threat and the city. In an instant, a shower of arrows were launched and descended toward the colorful creature.
Aurora still wasn’t quite sure what most of those things were about. She’d never heard of a laboratory, or scientists, or even experimentation. Although, by the girl’s tone, none of it sounded particularly pleasant. A frown tugged at her mouth. “Regardless, I’m glad you both were able to escape. You’ll always be welcome here, and Cosmos too, if you can restore him to the way he was before.”

"Only you can believe all is lost but I know with time, nothing is lost." (OOC)
"Not everyone can step the boundaries of time like you." "That I know not to believe. So Whatcha trying to hide?" Runa blantely asked without worrying about being yelled at.
The tiny girl chuckled nervously before answering, "Asher." and though she wanted to saw more about who she was she remembered the warning her friends had giving her about it and was trying to be careful.

Loki was not expecting that kind of reaction. He squared his jaw and grit his teeth together, eyes ever so slightly narrowed in minor irritation. “I am not hiding anything. Now is not a wise time to chitchat with the goddess of death. She is very busy.” That wasn’t a lie. They both knew when it was happening, and had much to prepare for.
Peter introduced himself and took a seat on the grass, in order to get a closer look at the tiny girl. “Where are you from, Asher?” He could tell the girl was a little nervous, though he had no idea what could be causing it. Had she been fleeing from something, or someone?
Dragon Girl’s eyes glimmered. “Oh, nothing major. Just the end of the world, and the deaths of every living creature.” She paused after letting a dramatic moment of tension build, “Don’t worry, we’ll be safe here. But a whole universe will be destroyed, and a few people here will die. Can’t say who though.” She muttered mysteriously. It was such a pleasure to know things before they happened.

"Only you can believe all is lost but I know with time, nothing is lost." (OOC)
"Not everyone can step the boundaries of time like you." "Planning for Ragnarok?" Runa asked bluntly after having decided to skim Loki's thoughts. She enjoyed being good at being sneaky.
Asher looked even more nervous with the question, "Um, Earth?" She replied more with a questioning tone then she had meant.

Loki tried to steel his features and conceal his shock, but he couldn’t keep the emotions from his green eyes; shock, panic, anger. His hands clenched uneasily at his sides, and a mental wall slammed down around his mind like a steel vault. “Stay out of my mind, and tell no one of it.” He snapped.
Peter frowned at her. It sounded more like a question than a statement. “You don’t sound very sure about that. If you’re worried about what other people will think, don’t be. Most of the people here aren’t from Earth, and most of the ones that are aren’t normal by any means.”

"Only you can believe all is lost but I know with time, nothing is lost." (OOC)
"Not everyone can step the boundaries of time like you." Runa blinked before shaking her head, she had her ways past mental walls but decided to not push it. "You understand that no matter what universe I'm in I'll get caught up in the fight. That's the disadvantage of being raised the way I was." She pointed out instead figuring now would be a good time to tell her father that she was a Valkyrie.
"I'm just supposed to be careful about what I say. I am from a specific place on earth. Just I'm not supposed to openly talk about the place." Asher explained before blinking as she started to feel like she had said too much.

Loki tensed, his fists unconsciously clenching again. “If that is true, then it is in your best interest to leave. You have delivered your warning message and thus fulfilled your purpose for traveling here. There is no reason you should stay.”
Sabrina made a growling sort of sound at Loki, but it went ignored.
Peter quirked an eyebrow. “Well, I won’t tell anyone. I promise.” The more he learned about this unusually tiny girl, the more curious he became; both of her, and her origins. He couldn’t explain it.

"Not everyone can step the boundaries of time like you." Runa just rolled her eyes and sighed, "Stubborn kid." She said with a smile having decided it best to just drop the subject for the time being. Besides she didn't know what the future held being here.
"Umm, well maybe later." Asher muttered looking down. "Where is here?" She quickly asked so that she could attempt to change the subject.

Alice's frown slowly shifted into a short smile. "Thanks." She turned and looked around at all the destruction her creature friend had caused before abruptly flying off. Where he went was a mystery. She then noticed Keldeo and Peter talking to a tiny... person?
Keldeo flicked it's blue tail, listening to little being talk about terra. "Lamura, Annwyn." The creature quickly responded when she asked where she was. Keldeo then took a step back and sat down, letting Peter explain since it was sure the boy has been here for much longer than it has.

Loki made some adjustments to the spell he’d placed over the potions room entrance. “You will have access to this room, and may begin your work at any time you wish.” He hesitated, then implored her not to tell Raja or Morgan anything about Ragnarok, making sure to use telepathy in case of eavesdroppers.
Peter nodded slowly, partly at what Asher said, and partly in agreement with Keldeo. He wanted to press her for more questions, but even his natural curiosity couldn’t mask the gloominess he still felt over T’s abrupt departure. “Yeah, this is the Otherworld, and we’re on a continent called Lamura. The castle behind me is sort of… like a home for those who need it. I’ve lived here a few months.”
“If memory serves me correctly -- and it usually does -- I think you already know who one of the people are, who are going to die. She told you about it. You and your brother were in the kitchen and cried about it. As for the other one, I don’t think you’ve seen much of him. He did give Kiba a cookie once. There could be some other people that die too, but I can’t say for sure who yet. It’s still being plotted.” Dragon Girl muttered the last part.
Aurora nodded at Alice’s thanks, then saw her looking around; no doubt at the damage left behind. The poor girl. She couldn’t begin to imagine how she’d feel if Catori underwent anything like Cosmos had. She followed the girl’s gaze and noticed the very small figure of a girl talking with Peter. New people still showed up every now and then, so this came as no surprise to Aurora.

Damocles looked at her and said," your talking about mama Claudia aren't you, she will be one of the people who will die." Damocles lowered his head and said," but I don't want to lose my mama again." Damocles then looked back up at her and asked," is there anything I can do to save her?" Damocles knew that it was a long shot but just needed to ask.

"Not everyone can step the boundaries of time like you." "As Raja about the project he was supposed to start before he ran." Runa said crypticly before picking up the list to act like she didn't just hint at her brother unintentionally knowing something that he shouldn't.
"Castle? But it looks so bland." Asher replied with a frown thinking about the central tree back on her home island.

Rather than answer, Dragon Girl gave a simple nod. In spite of everything she knew, there were only so many things she was allowed to openly state outloud, though she was free to give hints and clues. She sometimes made jokes about the world she was in, but couldn’t explain to the residents what she meant. Paradoxes were a nasty business. Pity briefly shown in her dull, gray-green eyes. She missed her family too. To Damocles’ question, the girl shook her head sadly. “Nope. But maybe you can still talk to her afterwards. Her soul will be… somewhere else. Remember the woman you saw in her mirror? Claudia will be with her.” Dragon Girl hesitated. “I’m sure it’ll be hard, but I’ll be your friend. I don’t plan on going anywhere else anytime soon.” In reality, she knew she couldn’t anyway.
Loki arched a dark eyebrow at Runa’s cryptic statement. Perhaps he would ask him about that eventually. As the young woman picked up the list to peruse, Loki softly exhaled. “I’ll be in my study.” With a twinkle of his green eyes, the trickster vanished.
Sabrina leaned over Runa’s shoulder to look at the list. They couldn’t read, but made a chittering sound as though commenting on this or that.
Peter frowned. He’d never heard anyone make that kind of statement about his home before. “Bland? Compared to what?” He asked.

"Not everyone can step the boundaries of time like you." Runa looked around before mentally poking around the room. "That was not the best remark I could have said." She muttered before sighing. "I poke around my brothers head too much. And that's not easy to do." She thought before looking at the list again. There were a few that she knew would take a while because of rare ingredients but she also had her ways.
Asher lit up before starting to explain her home and the different parts of the tree. After a few moments she paused realizing how freely she was talking when she was supposed to be careful with her words.

After getting a drink from his fourth floor kitchen area, Loki went to his study and took a seat. The notebooks were arranged neatly on an end table to his right. He set his glass down and retrieved one of them, eager to browse the contents for any new information.
Sabrina bunched their back up and leaped from Runa’s shoulder, landing nimbly on the table of potions. A bottle nearly toppled when the creature’s tail brushed it, but they quickly turned and stood it back up with their nose.
Peter was quiet as the girl talked about her home. He almost appeared to space out at times, as a memory fought its way to the surface of his mind. Almost immediately after, the fleeting recollection was lost again to the deep trenches of his mind. The boy blinked as though leaving a trance, looking over to Keldeo before addressing Asher. “Your home sounds amazing. What did you say it was called again?” This was, of course, a trick question. She’d been reluctant on telling exactly where she was from, and he wanted to know what it was.

Damocles sighed and said," I ambit really worried about me, sure I would be depressed but Kiba will be worse off than me." Damocles then lowered his head and said," ever since are mother died Kiba has been hesitant to let a lot of people in and I worry that when she leaves he will close himself off even more."

"Not everyone can step the boundaries of time like you." Runa chuckled at Sabrina and gave her a quick pet, "Looks like we're going to need to explore this place a little. I doubt that dad has all of the ingredients for all of these potions." She said with a smile.
Asher opened her mouth to answer but again paused before shaking her head. "I haven't said it yet. I shouldn't say it. I think I've said too much." She muttered finally and looked down nervously.

Keldeo listened to Asher speak, watching the tiny person carefully.
Alice sharpened her gaze, wondering if she should go over and make sure Asher was okay. It was Cosmos who attacked the place and most likely startled the little person after all.
Athena let out a yawn, her focus was deep in her thoughts as she tried to think.
