"And do you know what this is, my pet?"

The blue-eyed Mekkyena slowly blinked as she looked around to the towering buildings before her, the people, pets, and vendors around them... Slowly, her eyes then came to rest upon the male at her side. "We're in a city, Ker."

A wide grin made its way to his face as he chuckled. "Indeed, it is... Much better than the slums we were walking around in. Careful where you tread, here... There are those that may wish to drive us from this place." Beginning to lead the way the larger of the two kept his eyes out for what was going on. There were those righteous in the city that would find the Mekkyenas out of place. ANd maybe they were... But Kerberos wished nothing more than to show his mate the sights that she deserved to see.

Triell--------------------------------Atem

Of all places Atem were wanting to go, it had to be a 'Holy City.' Why didn't he just slap Triell in the face and call it a day? Why... why did he have to bring him here? Besides that, why on earth did the Imeut suddenly have an interest in him anyway? Not like it mattered... during this entire trip, Triell hardly said a word. Not only were his own looks a contrast with this city, but the scowl, the blank eyes, the hateful darkness he seemed to simply radiate...
It was an understatement to say he was simply getting stared at. And it only made him more furious.

“All the buildings here are made of alabaster and marble,” Atem began. “That's what all the white and pure looking stone comes from.”
“.......”
“If you'd like,” Atem tried again, “We could go and see the big fountain at the centre of the City.”
Still, not even a glance came from Triell's direction. He remained as cold as ever. Atem could not help but realize the young Kuhna was more like the city than he realized. After all, if he were more like the colors he'd easily be able to blend in with the marble and alabaster himself.

“Come,” The Imeut persisted. “We will go and see the fountain.”

A nod was given as Naamah began to wander. She had been told that today was -hers-... She could go where she wished, within reason. The city had always been wonderous to her eyes. Having been created far from it, in the wilderness regions... Well, she certainly enjoyed a trip to one of the biggest cities within Evelon.
Glancing a few times back to make sure that her master followed, she gave what, to most, was a malicious smile... But to her, it was one of pure contentment.

Lifting her head for a moment she waved her tails a bit, non-mechanical ear flickering towards the sounds of the fountain. "I smell water. It sounds like a waterfall. In the city?" She asked, blue eyes turning to her master.

Kerberos gave a soft chuckle. "Indeed... Let me show you. It's called a fountain." He smiled as he walked next to her instead of behind, leading them towards the sound and smell. "They channel the water through pipes and make it look like a waterfall."

[Kitleoh]

Without so much as a glance towards Atem, Triell slowly stalked off in the direction where the water scent was coming from. As he did so, he couldn’t help but feel as if every pair of eyes was gazing at him, hungry with curiosity. Perhaps it was his own paranoia; his insane twisted mind which seemed to make life even more difficult for the young Kuhna. And yet… despite this, he stayed looking calm. His face cold and bland, eyes fixed on the path ahead…

Atem followed, looking around at everyone around him. As the busy shoppers and tourists scurried about like busy ants, few stopped to pay his companion any attention. While Triell’s mannerisms were suspicious, a little Kuhna looked far less threatening than if he were, let’s say, a Khimera.

Reaching the fountain, the pair stopped and stared. Triell’s gaze was its usual lifeless and dull evil self. Atem, however, was very much intrigued.
“I wish I had some facts to tell you about this,” The Imeut admitted as he stared at the fountain. “All I can say is that, so far, this is the grandest fountain I have seen. Don’t you agree?” Offering a friendly smile towards the Kuhna, he glanced his way in question of his own opinion.

But still, the Kuhna said nothing. His eyes drilled past the fountain, not even looking at it despite the fact that his eyes were on it.

Atem blinked, and looked back to the fountain, wondering how on earth Kacia, the Lucain female at home, ever managed to get him to open up to her..

[Citanul]

Unlike the young kuhna, many eyes were upon the pair of Mekkyena as they weaved their ways through the people. Kuhna were rather common, but these mechanical hyenas... Outside of the Shrine, they were not seen, and both of these were of unusual... Unique colors, even.

Neither cared however. Naamah was in her own world, analyzing the new sights, sounds, and smells of this city. Enthralled, as the water fountain came into view she approached, head tilting lightly. "This water is different... It smells different, but it sounds the same as any falls from home."

"Indeed." Kerberos came up behind his female as he looked around, assessing any dangers that may be there. "Things in cities are always different from home. See that Kuhna there? He has different marks than any others... And that Imuet? He is certainly different than Sandman."

Naamah's gaze turned as she looked to the pair, a slight incline of her head given. "Very different, master."

[Kitleoh]

The pair sat there in silence for a good long while. Atem, naturally, was starting to feel rather uncomfortable with it all. For a brief moment, he wondered if Triell was also starting to feel the same way. And yet… when he looked towards the Kuhna, there was no trace of him feeling even the slightest of discomforts.  Instead, he couldn’t have looked calmer.
If only Atem could get inside his head and see how he really felt. He would see that he was reading Triell the wrong way. Of course he was uncomfortable. Just not in the same way Atem happened to be.

And so, in yet another attempt to get his ‘friend’ to speak up Atem’s mouth opened, ready to go ahead and resume with his interesting facts. It was then when nothing came out did he see the two Mekkyena   standing with them at the fountain. Naturally, Triell only shot one cold glance before seemingly mind his own business.
The Imuet blinked in surprise at the two fellows who had become their company. After all, of all the different creatures here, a Mekkyena was a rare sight. Yet here he was with not only two, but two oddly colored ones.
“Mekkyena,” Atem whisp ered to Triell.
“I know what they are,” The slow and cool voice responded. It was nearly lifeless; a vast empty shell void of any emotion.

Frowning, Atem nodded in greeting towards the two. After all, they may look strange, and be a rare kind of creature. But that was no reason to be suspicious, untrusting and rude.

[Citanul]

Naamah seemed perfectly content. She watched the fountain, even moving to put her front paws atop the stones to look down into the waters once they stilled. "Why are there coins in the bottom, master?" She just barely dipped a paw into the cool waters before pulling back. Water wasn't harmful - not to fur, but she could not let it reach circuits that helped her move.

Kerberos came closer to her as he spoke, not wishing to disrupt others nor let them hear what he was going to say to her. They may misinterpret his words... It happened quite often. Mekkyena minds merely did not work the same as others. "The others think that throwing their coins into the fountain will bring them good luck. Some wish upon their coins."

"But wishes are illogical... Luck merely happens... A coin in the water could not do anything."

"Indeed. What silly things they will believe." He murmered with a soft cackle.

A slight glance with one blue eye went over to the Imuet and Kuhna. They were speaking of he and Naamah... The bi-colored gaze went back to his Naamah. No one would take her away... He had to be sure that no one suspected anything, that this female was his creation.
