No joke OC's please!

Valmaia- *She stops in her tracks* Oh lord-

Flare: I do this a lot.

Valmaia- *She was still fairly shocked* I don't understand- I'm literally speechless-

Splendor: Flare is a very special Nine Tails. She is not only the last pure Nine Tailed but is also very powerful.

Valmaia- I can see that-

Flare: Wanna see my power? *she grins slyly*

Valmaia- *She looks at Splendor*

Splendor: *to Flare* Nothing dangerous. *to you* I will be right here if she tries anything.

Valmaia- I-I won't-

*Flare suddenly makes the shadows move*

Valmaia- *She tenses up, getting nervous*

Offender: Hm? What's wrong Val?

Valmaia- Are you okay? *She kept staring at his wounds, worried sick*

Offender: Huh? *looks* Oh. Yeah I'll be fine. Neither the knives or bullets were made from Amethyte.

Valmaia- What do you mean...?

Offender: Amethyte is the only metal substance capable of hurting and even killing Cryptids.

Valmaia- Oh...

Offender: *nods* Let's get back home before something worse happens...

Valmaia- *She nods*

*back at the House*

Valmaia- *She was sitting in her room on her bean bag chairs, reading a book*

Flare: *swiftly reads your mind* Watch this!

Valmaia- *She tilts her head, confused*

*Flare suddenly creates Moondew flowers out of thin air*

Valmaia- *She gasps*

Flare: Here *she hands you the Flowers*

Valmaia- *She takes the flowers and smiles a bit*

Flare: I kinda read your mind... I hope you like them.

Valmaia- I love them *She smiles at Flare*

Flare: *she smiles* Watch this! *she waves her hand and a doorway appears from the shadows*

Valmaia- *She looks at it*
(Not insidious vibes at allllll-)

Flare: Told ya. The sunrises here are beautiful!

Valmaia- *She nods and smile* They really are..

*Flare says nothing watching the sunrise and as you watch the sunrise you see the colors in Flares fur brighten*

Valmaia- *She smiles more*

*you gasp in surprise as Flare's fur lights of fire*

Valmaia- *Her eyes widen* Woah!

Flare: Hm? *looks at you* What?

Valmaia- *She points to her* You're fur!

Flare: Hm? *looks at her fur* Eh, my fur does that during sunrises. It actually doesn't hurt me nor will it hurt you.

Valmaia- It's so pretty though!

Flare: The crystal streak looks good with your hair color.

Valmaia- Oh- thank you

Flare: Your welcome!!

Valmaia- *She smiles a bit*

*Flare teleports you and herself back into the Slender Household*

Valmaia- *She looks around*

Splendor: Ah! Welcome back Dear!

Valmaia- Oh- hello *She smiles a bit*

Splendor: Where have been Dear?

Valmaia- *She looks at Flare, seeing if it was okay to say*

*you hear it connect and Offender gasps in pain as you have broken his arm*

Valmaia- *She runs off as fast as she could*

*you realize that Flare is still in the room*

Valmaia- *She stops and turns around* Flare! Flare come on!

*Flare doesn't respond*

Valmaia- *She hurries back, grabbing Flare and running with her in her arms*

Offender: Run as much as you want~~ I'll easily catch up to you~

Valmaia- *She tries to run faster, panicking now*

*Flare disappears in a flash of light and you feel instantly faster, stronger, and has a lot more stamina and energy*

Valmaia- *She stops and looks around, feeling the energy, but still panicked* FLARE!

C: Come Dear. *you realize that it is very late in the afternoon* Dinner is ready.

Valmaia- Oh- okay then

*you follow Cabadoth to the kitchen, where a Four Course meal is being served*

Valmaia- Wow...

C: *smirks* Typical.

Valmaia- What do you mean? *She looks at him*

C: When Offender gives a girl a Purple Rose, he goes out of his way to do everything for the girl. *he gestures to the meal* Offender cooked the whole meal for you.

Valmaia- Really..? *She looks around for him*

C: *nods*
*you see Offender cooking something on the stove*

Valmaia- *She walks over to him and taps him on the shoulder*

*Offender leaves*
Slender: Finally.

Valmaia- What was that all about?...

Slender: Offender was staring at you.

Valmaia- *She blushed a bit, embarrassed* O-Oh

Slender: Don't worry Dear. He always does that.

Valmaia- Alright-

Splendor: Follow me Dear! I've got a surprise to show you!

Valmaia- *She nods a bit and follows him*

*Splendor leads you to a room that seems familiar*
Splendor: TA-DA!

Valmaia- *She smiles a bit and then looks around* It feels... So... Familiar in here...

Flare: *nods* Yes.

Valmaia- Are you sure though?

*Flare nods*

Valmaia- Positive?

Flare: Yes. That mark on your hand... That mark means that you are my owner.

Valmaia- *She tilts her head and looks down at her hand*

Flare: *slowly grins a bit*

Valmaia- Interesting...-

*Flare un-furls her wings a bit*

Valmaia- *She smiles*

*they all turn towards you*

Valmaia- *She freezes up, looking at them* Um...

????: Well Hello there Cutie~~ Red or Blue rose?
???: *cocks their head* Hello!
??: *looks at you up and down* Wonderful sense of fashion you have there!!
?: *smacks forehead* Who are you, what is your name, and what brings you here?

Valmaia- *She tries her best to pay attention to them, but loses track* I-Um... *She tenses up*

Splendor: Don't worry Dear! Take your time! My name is Splendor and these are my brothers, Slender, Trender, and Offender. *he points to the one in a suit first, then to the one who commented on your fashion, then to the one holding two roses*

Valmaia- *She nods a bit and then looks around at them, and once more, back to Splendor* I-I'm Valmaia... People call me Val-

*Splendor starts to say something but is interrupted by Offender*
Splendor: Nice to mee--
Offender: Red or blue rose Darling~~

Valmaia- *She looks back over* Blue?

Trender: Wait-- VAL NO!! *he takes the rose from you*

Valmaia- *She stops, looking* Hm?

Flare: *looks at you, worried* Zalgo's father is coming. His name is Naamah and he's very dangerous. Both Offender and I have met him, I more than once, and he's tried to kill Cabadoth multiple times. *lowers her voice* Not to mention the fact that Naamah killed Nova.

Valmaia- *She stops* What...?

Flare: *nods* Mhm. Nova was Cabadoth's beloved and the Slender Siblings mom.

Valmaia- Holy shit...

Flare: Yeah...

Valmaia- But... Why is he coming?

Offender: To try and kill you...

Valmaia- *her eyes widen* Why me..?

Offender: No clue.
Flare: He sees you as a threat.

Valmaia- I don't understand how though- I'm fairly weak

Valmaia- *Her eyes widen and she panics even more* No no no...

Offender: Val be calm. Cabadoth will handle it and HE does manage to get up here, you have both me and Flare to protect you.

Valmaia- *She nods a bit* Right... Right, sorry...

*noise is heard and Naamah appears in your room*

Valmaia- *She gets extremely nervous*

Valmaia- *She stands behind them*

Offender: *hugs you back and slowly unwraps his appendages*

Valmaia- *She wipes her eyes*

Offender: *gently wipes away her tears*

Valmaia- Thanks...

Offender: *puts his head on yours* A promise is a promise. I swear on the Ancient Univine Gods, I will let nothing harm you ever again.

Valmaia- *She nods a bit*

*you realize that Offender just made the most dangerous oath to protect you*

Valmaia- *She stays silent*

Offender: Everything okay Val?

Valmaia- *She nods* Yeah... I'm fine...

Offender: For protection... *he explains the meaning of the Purple Rose*

Valmaia- Oh.. Okay

Offender: *smiles and holds out the rose to you*

Valmaia- *She takes it*

*upon taking the rose, you feel the full protection of Offender come over you*

Valmaia- *She holds the rose close, smiling just a bit*

Cabadoth (Slender Father): *to you* Don't ever lose that rose Dear.

Valmaia- *She nods* I promise...

Offender: *smiles at you and is not p3rv3rted for once*

Valmaia- *She smiles back*

Trender: *destroys the rose and to you* Never take a rose from him!

Valmaia- Wait- why?

Trender: The red rose means he's going to have "fun" with you then kill you and the blue rose means he's going to immediately kill you...

Valmaia- *Her eyes widened* Seriously?!

Trender: *he sighs* Sadly yes.

Valmaia- *She feels a bit fuzzy and holds her head* Wow- okay then... I just avoided death- for who knows how many times now-

Splendor: Are you okay Dear?

Valmaia- *Nods a bit, trying to pull my head up* Yeah- yeah.. I'm fine...

Splendor: Are you sure Dear? You seem a little light headed?

Valmaia- I guess-

*Offender teleports behind you, grabs you, and teleports away with you*

Valmaia- *She screams*

*you are brought to where Offender lives*

Valmaia- *She panics and tries to look for an exit*

*there are none*

Valmaia- *She panics*

*you hear a small voice behind you*

Valmaia- *She whips her head around*

*you see a young child, around 6, behind you*

Valmaia- *She tilts her head*

Naamah: Or what?!
Flare: *growls* I will get HER!

Valmaia- *She stays quiet*

Naamah: You wouldn't dare!
Flare: I would and I will!! *snarls loudly* BLACKHOLE!!!

Valmaia- *She stays out of it, letting them go at it*

*a figure appears beside you*
BH: What Flare!?

*Flare jumps back up, ignoring her wounds, and kicks a heavy duty crowbar your way, all the while attacking Offender*

Valmaia- *She picks up the crowbar, and grips it in her hands, looking for an opening to hit him*

*Flare bites his appendages, causing him to scream in pain*

Valmaia- *She takes advantage and swings the crowbar at him*

*you hit his kneecaps, making him fall*

Valmaia- *She stands strong, holding the crowbar tightly*

Offender: *gets up and rips Flare off of his back, hurting her even more before throwing her across the room* Your turn~~

Valmaia- *She got scared, still holding up the crowbar*

*Offender reaches for you*

Valmaia- *She swings her crowbar at his arm*

Flare: *nips at your neck*

Valmaia- *She smiles brightly in her sleep, moving some more*

Flare: I know your up Val.

Valmaia- *She starts to wake up a bit* Hm...?

Flare: Time to wake up and I wanted you to see the sunrise.

Valmaia- Sunrise?

Flare: *nods* The sunrises here are beautiful.

Valmia- *She smiles*

Flare: *flicks her head to the window* Look.

Valmaia- *She looks at gasps* Wow...

*Offender is still following you and you try to call for help*

Valmaia- *She looks around* Splendor?

*Splendor isn't there*

Valmaia- *She looks around* Slender?

*Slender is resting but doesn't hear you. you start to panic a bit*

Valmaia- *She didn't want to wake him, so she continues to look as she hurrying to her room*

*Trender is also gone (went to fabric store) and you call out for one person/fox you can rely on*

Valmaia- Flare?

*you hear a low threating growl behind you*

Valmaia- *She hesitates as she turns around*

Flare: I thought they were gonna die... *she wipes her tears*

Valmaia- They're alright now-

Flare: Thank you again. Here *she hands you a Crystal Lily* as a thank you for reviving my Roses.

Valmaia- Are you sure? *She hesitantly takes it*

Flare: *nods* Yes. Crystal Lilies never die.
*upon taking the Lily, a strand of your hair turns a crystal color*

Valmaia- *She looks at the strand and her eyes widen*

*Flare smiles*

Valmaia- Woah-

Flare: Ya like it?

Valmaia- Yeah- I mean... Wow...

*Flare snuggles in your lap, making the purring noise*

Valmaia- *She pets her*

Flare: *lifts up her head slightly and breathes a pure gold flame on your hand, leaving you with a slight mark*

Valmaia- Ah... *She winces a bit and shakes her hand*

*Flare snuggles back down*

Valmaia- *She smiles*

Flare: *nips your leg*

Valmaia- *Squeaks a bit and giggles*

*Flare starts flicking her tails in your face*

Valmaia- *She giggles* That tickles!

Offender: *smiles to himself and starts to hum a special song*

Valmaia- *She sat down and began eating*

*Offender stops humming the song and starts to softly sing out loud*
Offender: When she was younger, she would pretend, That her bedroom was a castle, she was fairest in the land...~~

Valmaia- *She would listen as she ate*

Offender: *sings louder* And she got older, and it all changed, There was no time for make believe, And all the magic slipped away...

Valmaia- *She smiles and continues eating*

Offender: *sings* Until the light and in her eyes, it was all but gone, 'Cause all the dreams that she had, turned out to be wrong...

Valmaia- *She finishes up her dinner, taking it to the kitchen*

Offender: *doesn't notice and sweetly sings* So keep your head up, princess, before your crown falls, Know these voices in your head will be your downfall, I know it gets so hard but you don't got far to go, Yeah, keep your head up, princess, it's a long road, And the path leads right to where they won't go, I know it hurts right now but I know you'll make it home, So keep your head up, Yeah, keep your head up...

Valmaia- *She smiles brightly* Where'd you learn how to sing?

Offender: *laughs* Like I said, Never underestimate Splendor.

Valmaia- I never underestimated him-

Splendor: Hm? Oh! Hello Val!

Valmaia- *She smiles a bit* Hi Splendor

Splendor: Offender... I swear if you did ANYTHING TO HER!--

Valmaia- Wait! Don't get upset!

Splendor: Oh?

Valmaia- *She held up the purple rose*

Splendor: *looks at the rose* He... *looks at you questioningly* He gave?

Valmaia- *She nods* Yes...

Splendor: You seemed to enjoy the meal last night so... yeah, Ta-da!

Valmaia- Thank you! *She smiles*

Splendor: You're very welcome!

Valmaia- *She sits down, getting ready to eat*

*after the meal*
Flare: Hiya Val! *she is covered in blood* What'd I miss?

Valmaia- *She gasps and covers her mouth* What the hell happened?!

Flare: Hm? *looks at the blood* Oh. I went hunting.

Valmaia- Oh-

Flare: *smiles* Imma go wash this blood off.

Valmaia- As you should- *She was a bit spooked*

*Flare goes behind you and is at her full 7.5ft height, curled around you using her right wings as blankets and her front paws as pillows for you*

Valmaia- *She smiles a bit as she lays down and drifts off to sleep*

Flare: *rumbles in contentment*

Valmaia- *She falls asleep*

Flare: *makes a low humming noise in her sleep*

Valmaia- *She rests peacefully*

Flare: *wakes up almost at dawn but doesn't move*

Valmaia- *She was still resting*

Flare: *licks your forehead*

Valmaia- *She smiles in her sleep, moving a bit*

Flare: not... really... I... feel... very... dizzy... *she faints*

Offender: *starts to cry again* I know... I promised her that I would protect her... And I F**KING FAILED!... *he breaks down and quietly says* I'm sorry Val...

Valmaia- *She tears up* It's... It's okay...

Offender: *quietly but fiercely* Val... I'm.. sorry.. for.. failing.. to.. protect.. your.. mother.. but, I... will NOT let... anything.. happen to... you.

Valmaia- *She nods a bit and hugs him*

Offender: *hugs her back, wrapping his appendages around both her and himself*

Valmaia- *She tears up more*

Offender: *quietly but fiercely* I WILL protect you.

Valmaia- *She nods a bit*

Offender: *his tears slowly stop*

Valmaia- *She hugs him tighter*

*Offender enters the room as you did that*
Offender: Punishment for you~~ She was my favorite toy~

Valmaia- *She looks up* You're not hurting her anymore! *She struggles to stay up on her feet*

Offender: *pushes you onto the bed* That's fine Darling~~ I still have you~

Valmaia- *She panics and she tries to get away from him*

Offender: *pushes you back down* Now, now Darling~~ None of that~

Valmaia- Let me go! *She looks at him* Now!

Offender: And if I don't?~~ What are you gonna do, hm?~~ Your little fox friend can't rescue you now~~~

Valmaia- Maybe! *She tries to not show her panic* Let me go!

Offender: No~~ *he makes an advance towards you*

Valmaia- *She then starts to show some of her panic in her eyes* Stop it!

Flare: mrrrrrrg

Valmaia- *She scoops her up and uses her power to give some to her*

Flare: purrrrrrrr

Valmaia- Better?

Flare: A-a little...

Valmaia- *She transports a bit more of her power to her* How about now?

Flare: *stronger* Better.

Valmaia- Good...

Flare: *snuggles up to you*

Valmaia- *She smiles*

*Flare waves for you to follow her*

Valmaia- *She follows hesitantly*

*you follow Flare into a ginormous garden with numerous rare flowers*

Valmaia- *She gasps, looking all around* Wow...

Flare: *spreads her arms wide* Welcome to my Secret Garden. It's also my safe place.

Valmaia- It's beautiful!

Flare: Thanks *smiles weakly* ...

Valmaia- *She smiles back*

*you jump a little as Flare runs past you to a small field of unknown flowers*

Valmaia- *She squeaks a bit and jumps, looking at her* Where are you-

*you see golden tears well up in Flares eyes*
Flare: *weakly* no... No... NO... NO!

Valmaia- *She panics* H-Hey what's wrong?!

Flare: *the tears fall down her face* M-my Phoenix Roses... T-they're d-dying... *she reveals the flowers which are a sickly black*

Valmaia- *She stops and then feels really bad* I... I might be able to help?...

Flare: R-really!?

Valmaia- *She nods a bit*

Flare: T-thank y-y-you.
