@cheza- mehbey.. XD I'm sure they will be U.U and she will just not right now... i need to get Calder to meet her first...
@blood- you'll find out soon
@ezza- you should know by now that i love writting cliffies XD and, you won't find out just yet... but soon...
ugh, hate to say this, but my disappearing acts are going to be more and more frequent. School's kicking me and my lazy butt into shape, and I don't get a lot of time to actually log on. but, when I get the time, I'll be signing on ___________________________________ Rosie groaned. Her head, her stomach, her upper torso, and just about every part of her body was in burning pain. What a way to actually wake up. She just wanted to go back to sleep again rather than have to suffer through this crap. She thought, at first, that everything that had happened might've been a dream. That she had never really been buried, and never found by a damn giant claiming to be something she didn't think real. But, then Rosie took a look a her surroundings, and she realized just how far fetched that hope was. She was back in his room, not her own house, and laying on the pillow she had been on earlier. And he was asleep next to her- laying his gigantic head on the pillow next to her that was the size of a room. Rosie took notice as to how she could try and escape again- he was asleep, after all, and her tiny footsteps wouldn't even begin to wake him up- but her stomach was in pain! Raging, searing, burning pain that was equal to an inferno. There was no way she'd be able to move, let alone try and perform those stunts again. She'd just have to sit and wait for him to get up, and suffer through a bunch of yelling, before Rosie could dream of going any where. She tried sitting up slightly, just so that way she wouldn't be forced down, and sucked into the material of the pillow and suffocate. Something on her tummy was weighing her down though. Rosie tried to get a firm grip on what she was laying on, and move her body up wards just a bit, enough so she could see exactly what it was forcing her down. And, with some- okay, much- difficulty, she did. And she had to hold in her breathe to actually keep her from gasping out loud. On her stomach was what was basically a cast. And allowing it to stay on was a huge piece of tape. But... but... how did it get there?? Green eyes flickered to the giant sleeping peacefully next to her. Could he... no. Rosie was far, far, far to small for him to have done anything like this. But, who else could've?? Maybe the wizard pulled some bunnies- or, in this case, people my size- out of his hat and they fixed me, she rationalized, After all, he did make a damn plant grow out of the ground...But, there wasn't anything else- or anyone else- she could think of that could've possibly bandaged her up. Sp, had this giant that she had escaped from really tried to help her?? Really tried to save her?? A strange feeling filled her core. It was like butterflies in her tummy, and they were creating a knot in it. A small blush- pun intended- lit up her cheeks. But, it quickly vanished when the spot next to her started to shift. Rosie gripped onto the pillow even more firmer, in hopes of not falling off. Georgius was awake. Dark brown orbs- which, from up close, Rosie could see that they were more of a tree color than a dark, mocha shade- turned to her, and a hand came around a second later, keeping the tiny body in place while he adjusted himself into a sitting up position that loomed over her like... like... well, Rosie didn't know what.... The larger than life hand was gone a second later, and fear over took her. Oh, crap. What's he gonna do?? I mean, he could kill me in a second if he got angry enough with me... or he could torture me just as easily. I'm in his mercy... I just hope he's gentle. were her beyond worried and nervous thoughts. She was expecting something, yelling, rough housing, manhandling, but that didn't come at all, much to Rosie's relief. Instead, he bent down slightly, so he could get a better look at her bandages and injury and asked softly- so softly, that Rosie had a tough time hearing it, "Are you feeling any better?" All she could do was nod, and stare at him wide eyed with shock. He smiled slightly, "Good. You got hurt pretty badly over there. Very badly, actually." Crap, now I know it's coming soon, she thought, The yelling, torture, and killing galore.But, again another surprise,"Why would you do something like that??" his soft voice asked again, "You could- and did- get seriously hurt, and might have even died had I not found you soon enough," Rosie vaguely recalled seeing him standing over her after performing yet another magic trick, "I know that you've only been here a limited amount of time, but is it really that bad?" Tears threatened to spill again, "I just... I want to go home," she said lightly, not even sure if the giant could hear her or not, "I miss my family, and the villagers... and, and-" that was all she could stutter out before the said tears actually came. It was more than ever in her life, and Rosie wished it could stop. She hated showing weakness like this. A hand came under her now. It was gentle, and tried to keep her steady as possible so her cut wouldn't open up. It scooped her up, and brought her small body up to a gigantic chest. This had to be what he called a hug, but Rosie didn't object. This "hug" felt nice. Welcoming, comforting. A giant digit rubbed her tiny little back in circles- or, as close as he could get- and she felt herself start to fall asleep once more. But, not before she caught his last words. "I don't know how long it will be, but I'll bring you home as soon as I can." The vibration that traveled through his body and through Rosie is what lulled her into unconsciousness. That, and the rhythmic beat of his heart. She just didn't know he was lying. __________________________________ no, she's not in a coma or dead or anything like that, just to clear it up XD. Rosie's just tired and is currently sleeping And i think I used Georigus' name a total of twice including this time.. poor dude... XD [glow=yellow,2,300]Cookie XD[/glow]

^^ Awww I love how calm and fatherly Georgius. I kind of wonder if he's always wanted a child if he's a god XD That's one thing I think is making Georgius act this way, but that's just my theory x3 Very touching my dear, love it~

Ian's eyes widened in shock. He couldn't believe what Calder had just told him. The Water Guardian's brother was also hiding a human- only this one was a girl- and Calder went over there to visit her, and told said brother that his human was in trouble with their other brothers, for whatever reason, when, in truth, it was Ian who was the one they were looking for.
"So, what you're saying is, that you told someone else they were the target of your brother-"
Calder cut him off, "Brothers."
"Fine, brothers wrath, when I'm the one they're after," Ian said, regaining a bit of composure after his shock.
Calder nodded, "That pretty much sums it up."
"But... why?? Why put someone else in trouble for me??"
He shrugged those larger than life shoulders that rose above the human like hills. "Because I refuse to allow you to get hurt. You just tried to commit suicide," Ian flinched. It was hard enough to know that he actually had tried to kill himself, but to not know why made it worse, "and just recently started to feel at home here. The last thing you need right now is to be worried that someone is out searching for you," he said in a soft tone, gazing down with those pale blue eyes.
Ian sighed, "I understand why you did that, I really, really do. And, I'm so grateful that you want to keep me safe. But, you can't in danger some one else to keep me protected."
Calder's soft tone was gone, this time, "If you understood, then you would be thanking me, bot making a huge deal out of this. I'm trying to help you. I won't let them hurt you, at all. Hell, I won't even let them touch you. Georigus can take care of his human, and I need to take care of you."His words came out as cold, biting, and being hissed out through ground teeth.
Ian stepped back in shock, almost falling off the couch he was perched on. In all the time he had been here- which was a couple of months- in this underwater palace, the giant had never spoken to him like that. It was always either a friendly,soft, or joking tone, only becoming anger when someone tried to hurt the human.
However, the brown haired teen managed to keep his cool, not letting his voice waver with the slight fear he felt, "But, the thing is, you can't let someone get hurt because of me. If your brother cares about this girl with a fraction of how much I'm sure you do about me, then he'll do whatever it takes to keep her safe. And he doesn't even need to. And that protection over nothing might get her into even more trouble."
That seemed to strike a cored with Calder. His pale blue eyes softened to the extreme, and the tone he used the next time was as soft as Ian had ever heard it, "But, I can't let you get hurt, either."
Ian nodded slowly, "I understand that, but you can't let someone innocent be put in the path of danger while you try to keep me safe."
"Then what do you suppose I do? It's not as if I can waltz in there and say 'I lied, your human's not really in trouble, but I want you to help protect mine instead,'."
"No, you can't directly say that, but maybe if you explain why you lied, your brother will forgive you and try to help."
"You've never met my brother."
Ian sighed, "True, but if he understands that you want to protect someone, then maybe he'll be willing to help, even if you lied to him to keep me safe."
Calder sighed this time, and it's breeze knocked Ian down, "But, how do you expect that to happen, exactly?"
"Simple. We go over to where ever it is your brother lives, and we meet that human girl of his." _______________________________
Shorter? Yep. But, it's really just a filler. I needed to put this in here so that way Calder and Ian aren't just randomly appearing in Georgius' home, saying that they want to meet Rosie while you guys have absolutely no idea how that happened. XD

^^ No need to apologize dear, things happen. I'd use something like Word Documents or something, when it closes suddenly and you open it again it'll bring up the original and most if not all of your typed up story. (Saved me quite a few times) If you don't have Word then just write it out in a notebook :3 That way you don't have to try and remember all of what you wrote last time ^^ Hope it helps dear~

@cheza- meh, I'm apologizing anyway XD I use word for most things, but not this. If I did, nothing would ever be posted, especially now with school back up again. I don't get a lot of time to write... XDD but thanks so much for your advice I'll try and find something, but, most of the time, I copy and paste, that way if it resets on me, I can just paste and continue typing.
_____________________________________It had been seven days. Seven days since Rosie had been buried. Seven days since she had arrived here. And seven days since she had cut her stomach- which was actually healing very well. She had no idea how she was able to survive that long here, where everything was so many times bigger than her, but she felt that it had a lot to do with the fact that her "room mate" was a wizard- that proclaimed himself as a Guardian- that could make things that were her size, which made life a bit easier. Rosie and Georgius also found out that her bandage had to be changed everyday. And, it wasn't fun figuring that one out. The day after Rosie had cut herself, she said she felt weird. The her stomach felt- for a lack of better words- crusty and sticky. Not a good combination. So, she took off her bandage of tissues- because Georgius' fingers were to large to remove it- and found dried blood stuck to her skin. It was a mix between crusty, and bubbly, and it hurt to the extreme trying to peel it all off because water didn't help much in getting the stuff off. So, from then on, it was decided that her tissue covering would need to be changed at least once a day. Preferably after Rosie's shower- which was basically a big crater that was made by the wizard to fit her specifically and was filled with water- so that way it wouldn't get soaked and she wouldn't have to changed the bandage again. She had also decided to start actually putting said bandage on the sixth day. Rosie had been conscious that time, when Georgius had decided to apply a new one after she had peeled all that crusty stuff off of her stomach. She had felt him roll her over on his palm for at least ten minutes while he secured it on her, and Rosie felt it would be better for her- and probably Georgius, too, since he wouldn't have to stress his eyes trying- if she just did it herself every morning. Of course, it was tough at first. Rosie had a hard time sticking the bits of tissue on her stomach, especially considering that she was looking at the cut up-side-down, and had a bad perspective of it. For the first couple days, it took her a few tries to get them on right. And then there was the issue of the damned tape- Georgius had explained what that sticky strip was once Rosie got to hold it the first time. She didn't have anything like that in her village. That stupid thing was bigger than both of her hands, and got stuck often. That was the only time she would call on her "Room mate" to help her with the bandaging. Speaking of the self-proclaimed Guardian, Rosie still had such a hard time understanding just why it was he was so... kind to her. So helpful, and always checking to make sure she was okay, even after she'd prove time and time again that she could be a less than pleasant person to be around (times such as when she would attempt to throw things at him, like little pebbles that probably had no effect on the giant what-so-ever). The red head couldn't complain, though. It was one of the few times in her life that someone actually cared about her, and she really didn't want to risk that ending by questioning it. Of course, she wasn't totally trusting of him yet. He was a giant, and if Rosie made the wrong move, she could wind up dead under his shoe, or squished in his palm. But, she was definitely not as wary of him as she had been before. There was just something about Georgius- besides his warm personality- that made it practically impossible to not trust him for long, even if he was larger than life. Rosie knew that her distrusting of him would fade soon enough. Loud, thundering footsteps echoed into the room, snapping the human girl out of her thoughts. She sat up from the gigantic bed she had been laying on, and a hand was plopped in front of her, inviting her on. Rosie didn't hesitate. She knew well enough that Georgius wouldn't drop her as he carried her to where she assumed would be the kitchen for some breakfast. And she was right. Within a matter of minutes- though it would've taken Rosie hours- the two were in the huge eating area, and she was placed on a counter that could easily fit village after village after village on it. A flash of light appeared in front of her, and fruits and veggies galore appeared in front of her, all cut down to her tiny size. She happily dug in, not needing an invite. The wizard was able to grow the best fruit. Sadly for her, the feast didn't last long. Almost a minute after she had food set down in front of her, and Georgius had his own meal and had joined her near the counter, a puff of blue smoke appeared in the room. The same smoke that had been here a week ago, when the other giant came for a visit. ___________________________________________ Finally, I got the time to finish posting. I started a lot yesterday, and took cheza's advice and saved it onto word, then just copied it and pasted it on here and finished it up Thanks again, cheza [glow=blue,2,300]Cookie XD[/glow]

Cheza - Well, I'm glad you like to be, because you always are I love them, too. I laugh all the time while doing it. The awkwardness is just the best XD
And, now, time to continue _____________________________Rosie couldn't help but scootch back toward Georgius once she saw the new person come into the room. She didn't know him. She didn't trust him. She wasn't taking chances by fully exposing herself. At least, with Georigus, she knew she could trust him to take her out of the way of any immediate danger. But, Rosie had to admit, she was ecstatic that she got to see what the giant looked like this time. She had missed getting a glimpse at him the last time he was here, and she was shocked. White hair, pale blue eyes, round face, and a lanky build. She didn't know what it was she had been expecting, but that certainly wasn't it. He looked to... innocent. Like he was lost and needed help finding his way home. Georgius looked at his the new comer with eyes filled with different emotions. Protectiveness, worry, and slight surprise, "I didn't expect you to be here so soon, brother." Wait... what? These two were brothers?? Rosie just couldn't believe that. They looked NOTHING alike! Maybe they were adopted or something... but they couldn't be related by blood! The new giant smiled, there was a mocking touch to it, "I did tell you I would be back in a week, didn't I? Now, where is she?" Georgius' eyes widened, "Has it been a week already? My, time does fly..." he trailed off. His brother looked impatient, "Yes, it has. Now, let. Me. See. Her," he replied, enunciating every syllable. Georigus sighed, and Rosie felt a hand being placed on her back that pushed her out of the hiding spot she had been in. What was he doing? She didn't know this new guy, so why was her so called protector- or, close enough, anyway, seeing as he was the only one that was accommodated to the sizes of this world that she trusted- dragging her out here? "Here she is." The pale giant smiled, and Rosie was surprised to see that it was soft and sweet, and didn't at all match the orders he had just given out. "So, you're the human girl my brother seems to be so fond of. I'm Calder," he said, extending his index finger," and it's a pleasure to meet you.. miss...." Rosie gripped onto the finger, not all entirely sure what it was that she was supposed to do. Shake it, maybe?? Despite her entire body yelling at her to get away from this Calder, she told him her name, unbeknowest as to why she did it. Maybe because he seemed nice enough... but, his niceness was... odd... As if he had greeted someone her size before. As if he knew what it was that would make her comfortable around him... Something flashed in Georgius' eyes that Rosie couldn't quite point out- realization, shock, something of that sort. "What else did you come here for?" he asked suddenly, acting more like his brother with his arms across his chest and his dark eyebrows raised rather than the sweet giant Rosie knew that didn't seem like the type to interogate anyone. Calder's pale eyebrows raised, "What makes you think I came for anything else?"he asked, standing up to his full height, which made Rosie feel extremely tiny. Though, she wasn't sure why. He was a bit shorter than Georgius, and she was used to his towering height by now... Georgius just smiled that sweet smile that Rosie was accustomed to seeing, "Because, you're my brother. My younger brother that I knew well enough to know when he had ulterior motives." He shrugged and the corners of his giantic lips turned up, "Fair enough," was the nonchalant reply, "How about we head into the living room- if that's what you want to call that place, at least-? We can talk there." Georgius nodded, and reached over to grab the human still sitting on the table, scooping her up delicately in his large palm- something Rosie didn't know if she'd ever get used to. The feeling of being raised so high up off the solid ground, and being held by giant flesh... well, let's just say that in her opinion, it wasn't fun. She had never really liked heights to being with, and this never exactly helped... But, despite how much she hated it, she allowed herself to be carried by him until the two giants walked into the room she had seen so many times before. Two couches, a coffee table, an end table, and a lamp all sat on a dirt floor. The couches were side by side, corners meeting with the end table in between and the coffee table in the center of both of them with the lamp on it's end. It was a small room, and therefore didn't allow much stuff to be put in there, but it had a cozy feel to it nonetheless. She was sat down on the end table, with the brothers on both of her sides, though Rosie was closest to Georgius, who broke the awkward silence by saying, "So, there's something you need to share?" he asked, looking very uncomfortable. Rosie could kind of understand why. He was sweet, and it was probably odd to be acting like he was, especially with his own brother. Calder smirked lightly, "Well, I don't really know where to start..." ________________________________________________ There. Finally, this thing is up. I'm so sorry it took so long. I don't really have an excuse besides laziness... but, it's here nonetheless Edit: edited

Calder smirked lightly, "Well, I don't really know where to start..." Then he shrugged, "But, maybe this might be a good place to..." What happened next shocked the human girl and the giant sitting near here. Calder reached inside a pocket of his shirt and pulled something out. No, it wasn't a some thing, it was a some one. Rosie could see that the second the pale giant set him on the table she was on. It was... another human. She rubbed her eyes over and over again, hoping she wasn't imagining that someone her own size was right here, standing in front of her, and had somehow traveled unnoticed with Calder. Her shaking legs took a few steps towards him. He was handsome, she had to admit that. He kind of reminded her of a mini Georgius. Dark brown hair, and dark brown eyes. But, with an extreme tan, and more of a lanky build than the giant taking care of her. Once Rosie got close enough, he stuck out a hand, smiling widely. Rosie did the same- minus the smiling part. She didn't know this guy, didn't know if he presented a threat. "My name's Ian," he said, shaking her hand. "Rosie," she replied. "Nice to meet you." "Mmm-hmmm.." Maybe he is Georgius' miniature clone.... well, except for the name... but the two are both overly friendly she thought to herself. Speaking of the giant that had taken care of her for a week, he was the one that spoke next, "Brother... since when.... since when have you had a human?" he asked softly, gazing at Ian with shocked eyes. Calder shrugged, "A few months." His brother still seemed shocked when he asked, "How? How you..." The younger brother cut him off, "Find him? He jumped into the river, " Ian flinched at that,"and was going to drown, so I saved him." At that, the giant's pale blue eyes grew softer, and gazed down at the human boy with such.....well, Rosie couldn't think of a word that described it. Sweetness, maybe?? Whatever it was, it was enough to make her heart melt. She couldn't help but stare at the other human standing near her. He seemed so... happy... and definitely not the type of person to try to kill themselves. Rosie had only known a few people that had done that in her small village- suicide was something that was frowned upon by nearly everyone. The people that committed it weren't even allowed to receive funerals- but generally they were people who were considered crazy by their emperor, or whom were taunted constantly. Never someone happy. But, then again, she had only known Ian for a few minutes. Maybe he was secretly insane... Calder cleared his throat, snapping Rosie from her thoughts. "But, that's not the only thing I came here to tell you." Georgius cast his dark eyes from the two humans on the table to his brother, "Really?" "Yup," he replied, popping the pRosie noticed Ian from the corner of her eye cast his head downward, dark hair falling in his face. He must know what's going to happen next, she decided. Calder started speaking again in the next second. "Remember when I told you about Tytus, and how he was looking for your human girl?" he asked. Georgius nodded, "Well.... I lied." _________________________________________ [glow=green,2,300]Cookie XD[/glow] (can't forget the signature )
