"Nice to meet you Pierce, I am Gladrial, friends call me Rial...well so far that's mika" she chuckled.

Zack nodded calmly.
"Pleasure to meet you. Now if you excuse me, i gotta go and see my
horse... I tied him up in the woods"he said with a handsome smiled, got
up and walked away. (lol just got to get rid of him xD)

"Its a pleasure" He said taking her hand in a friendly shake. "So Rial...." He said pausing and looking down at the panther kit. "This must be your spirit animal." he said very matter of factly.

She looked at zack who just randomly left...Must not like strangers...she thought. "Yes" She smiled and picked up moon who groaned "This is moon....and where is yours?"

Arya soundlessly walked closer. She smiled a bit seeing Rial. She was
always nice to talk to. Then she saw Salem... but ah, Arya sighted, it
was Pierce. She walked closer and bit her lip thinking how others would
react seeing her.

"Hi" she murmured looking at her feet

"Arya" She smiled. She went and gave her a big hug "you're back"

He went to Rios stall and pulled out the giant horse. "This is rio. He's an Albino stallion..."

Arya hugged her back.

"Rial... yup me, personally" she tried to smile but failed.
"Hi Pierce"

"Woah" Her mouth gaped open...."Now that's a horse, giant hrose but a horse none the less" She smiled. "Can I pet him...him right?"

Arya smiled sadly.
"Hi Rio" she said silently and patted his neck. Horse neighed as he would have recognized her.

"Hey Arya" He said, sending her a friendly wave across the room. "Yeah, He is a giant horse... He's about 19.4 hands.... One of the largest out there.. Pet him? Sure. And yes, He." He said gesturing towards Rio with a smile plastered to his face.

"But when your as tall built as I am its easier to have a big horse. He said, looking towards Arya and Rial from his 6 foot 5 stature.

Carefully, almost as to the effect of not wanting to hurt him, she gently scratched his shoulder and moved up his neck scratching a bit harder when she noticed hew as enjoying it. Her smiled was so big it was hard to not notice her happyness "Oh my gosh he's soo pretty...Oh I suppose" she turned to smile at him before spinning her head around again her long blonde hair following.

"Yep... Umm Pierce? How.... how have ya been?" she said silently with soft accent, hoping she wouldn't hurt him.

Rial heard Arya start talking...something in her voice sounded....worried and sad. She kept her back turned listening

"I've been good." He said gently. "PLease arya." He whispered in her ear. "dont let my cousins death upset you.... He wouldnt want it like this." His blue eyes were soft and warm. "He would want you to live your life, and have a ssmashing time doing it..." He paused. "He loved you you know." He said as gently as possible, and put his large had on her shoulder before turning back to Rio and Rial.

Rial cocked an eyebrow to herself ~Why would yous ay that to someone that is mourning? just leave the subject alone...love is so overrated~ she cringed but he seemed like a very good hearted man, he only ment well..
~How would i know? I'm just a kid~ came the reply
~Sorry thinking 'out loud' again~ she chuckled

Arya swallowed.

"Well I think I umm start going back, I have lots of things to unpack
in my house" she said, her face perfectly calm but eyes blurred of
tears.
"Bye, seeya later guys" she said, already turning around. She whistled
silently and Phoenix trotted to her. Arya gracefully hopped on his bare
back and pushed kneels in his sides. Phoenix took off with crazy galopp.

-------Vandecar outside

He sighted slightly. "Sorry bout that" He said giving a shining white half hearted smile.

Rial quickly wipped around "Arya....." she was gone. she turned to pierce and smiled..."You can go after her if you want...I can stay here alone...maybe i'll see if i can find my brother" she said innocently

"I'm going to give her time. I'd do no good to stir more memories that Ache her heart." He said truthfully.

"That's true, and very kind of you. Most guys would just run after her...do you think i should go?" she cocked her head not sure whta to do

"I think that If we give her a few hours to just think, then you should try talking to her. But right now she's Hurting from losing the one she loved, and it could take a while before we ever get our arya back. But if we really are her friends..." He said wisly. "then we can wait."

"You must have been through this before huh?" She asked looking up at him and then shifting her gaze back down. She ran her hand over Rio's stomach and smiled. He was so soft

"Yeah...." He said giving a sad smile. "My uncle was forced to watch my niece and His wife die in a fire. then he was killed." He shuddered, losing his levelheaded feeling. "Salem was never the same. But I knew that I couldnt Push it by stirring up the memories that hurt the most."
