Ritsuka opened her mouth to respond to Citrine's question when she noticed a strange scent in the air. Shortly after, a tall slate haired boy walked up. She closed her mouth slowly and stared as he spoke, "Hey guys."
Hey guys...? She found it odd that this stranger would just walk up and say hello to all of them. Maybe it was just a friendly thing to do nowadays. Assuming the boy knew Citrine, she kept quiet until something happened. The rumble of the thunder was closer than ever and Citrine's question was dancing in the back of her mind; her tail twitched beside her at the thought of being hit by lightning.

Mandu paused to listen to the approaching thunder, blinking only when the flashes of lightning overtook the area. He was about to respond to Citrine's question but was surprised to hear an unfamiliar voice approaching them. "Hey guys." said the tall guy walking on over to them. "Hmmm, he seems friendly." thought Mandu. He watched as he came to a stop by Citrine, revealing what appeared to be fangs. Mandu wasn't sure if he should be afraid of him or not considering he was being so friendly. Mandu, in a friendly gesture, raised his hand and waved at the guy. "Hello there," said Mandu casually, glancing at Citrine, the guy and to Ritsuka.

Citrine heard one thunderous sound from above, and suddenly felt a similar thunder within her chest. The peaceful feeling that had resided within her had erupted as she tore her eyes open, searching the area around them frantically. She smelled him. He was back.
"ALUCARD!!" She screamed it the moment she saw him. She'd thought about this moment, finally seeing him again, one or two times. She figured she'd sit there, eyes wide, mouth open, unable to react. But she didn't usually act how she pictured herself. Instead, excitement welled up inside her, and she leaped up to throw herself into his loving arms.

"I take it your happy I'm back." alucard said. He embraced her tightly remembering why he loved her so much. He focused his eyes on her specifically reading her. He forgot how her expersions sort of danced.
"I missed you." he said. He shook his white now short hair. A thing some humans did. He didn't know why it seemed trivial but he thought it made him look more human.
He let go of Citrine unwillingly. "Perhaps you know me now Ritsuka." he mentioned as he licked a fang for no reason at all.

Citrine smiled into Alucard's chest and made sure to breathe in the vibrations as he spoke. Looking up at him, she noticed his hair. As he let go, she reached out and played a bit. "Hm, you come back all improved. Interesting."
Citrine smiled and didn't dare look away. "I didn't know if you would come back." It was funny, looking at another pair of fangs across from her. There was a strange sort of comfort, and she realized how good it felt to be with an old, familiar face.

"Yep mostly improvements, though i am a little thirsty and i get so quite often." Scratching his neck were the first fangs marked his neck there now lay a tatoo. "I would always come back i cant leave you here all alone. So.. are you gonna introduce me to this fellow here." he said pointing at the other hufflepuff at the end of his statement. So casual around him, thought Alucard, she must have know him for a bit, I hope. his eyes dropping slightly at the thought

Citrine flew up off the ground and embraced the stranger who walked up to their group. Alucard? Ritsuka has never heard of this guy before. She could say he looked familiar, but a lot of people looked familiar to her. It was probably because she was slightly crazy.
"I take it your happy I'm back. I missed you."
Back? Had he left? Who? What? Ritsuka was twitching her ears all over the place in confusion. She hadn't noticed that she had been staring for what felt like forever at the stranger. He was a vampire, just like Citrine. A short wave of relief washed over her body just knowing that he wasn't some random boy and that he was one of her. But she was still a bit cautious, her eyes fixed on him.
"Perhaps you know me now Ritsuka."
How does he know my name... She didn't think Citrine was the type to bring her up in conversations, so how did he know? Was Ritsuka supposed to know who this boy was? She looked up and down at the boy hoping it'd hit a memory in her head, but found nothing. Stiffly, she shook her head and brought her eyes to Citrine's feet ahead of her.
A strange feeling trickled up her back as she thought of how her friend welcomed this new guy. Really, when was the last time she's ever been able to hug anyone? She felt a strange kind of distant loneliness stab at her, but she shoved that away. Why would Ritsuka WANT to hug people? She must obviously be getting soft. Furrowing her brow a bit, she continued to keep quiet.

Ritsuka the strange eared slytherin stared at him for bit. Perhaps she doesn't remember. Hell I hardly do. Alucard thought. "I believe we met only the once." he said closing one eye in thought. Oh hell with it. he thought as he let himself fall into the sitting position. He wasn't going to be leaving any time soon. That was unless one of the others decided to force him to leave. He opened the eye, at last. His vision was slighly blocked by black floating dots in his vision.
It is obvious Citrine is happy bout my return but what about the others. I don't now if celeste is alive or even here. I can ask Citrine after the others leave. I know the wolves won't be happy for sure. Especially that Iggy, I roughed up that that fel wolf. the thoughts raced through his head un able to stop, but he could shove them aside for the moment
His curiosity begin to grip him as he waited for Citrine's answer to his question about the hufflepuff. It also was funny the body language of Ritsuka. He wanted to know what was in that head then. He'd settle for being near Citrine again. No not settle. It was all he needed. It had slightly calmed him allowing him to better reign in his vampiric instincts.

Citrine sat beside Ritsuka again, while Alucard joined them. The rain was still around them and, judging by the clouds, might stay awhile. She smiled at the thought. What a perfect day for Alucard's return. The smell of the rain blended well with his sweet smell and she felt a strange sense of satisfaction, as well as mixed company. There would be a lot of catching up... and then there was Kazuo... but he never really cared about her, anyway. He was always more interested in Ritsuka.
"Oh!" Citrine smacked her palm against her forehead and smiled at the happy looking Hufflepuff beside her. "Alucard, this is Mandu. Mandu, this is Alucard. And since we're doing introductions," Citrine turned to Ritsuka, "You two know each other?" She glanced back and forth between Alucard and Ritsuka. She could tell Ritsuka had absolutely no idea who it was sitting across from them, but Alucard seemed to know perfectly. He was one to watch over, perhaps he had seen Ritsuka and Citrine together, for it was a regular thing. Or perhaps she had mentioned her once or twice before.
But then, there were times before anything had happened, they had to have seen each other before. Perhaps there was something. Citrine didn't think too long about it. "Doesn't matter. Ritsuka, Alucard, Alucard, Ritsuka. There. Now we're all nice and comfy." Citrine looked around, making sure she hadn't missed anything. "And in case anyone's confused, I'm still Citrine." She put her hands to her chest, a fake serious expression on her face, followed by amusement.

After Citrine finished with the first introduction Alucard reached out a hand to Mandu. "Nice to meet you. Are you a friend of Citrine?" He said politely. "Maybe we didn't meet but I could have sworn we did. Perhaps Citrine mentioned you before i left. Oh well. Hello Ritsuka." He greeted. Alucard didn't know what to accompany this greeting with so just smiled.
Then responding to Citrine's quirky remark he mentioned, "Im glad you reminded me I almost didn't know who you were." He laughed a second after.
"So what has life here been like while i was gone? Anything interesting life threatening happen?" Alucard asked nonchalantly. It was a simple question and life here at least had one interesting things happen now and again.

Ritsuka bowed her head in the direction of Alucard as her way of saying hello; her ears drew back as she did so. She admired the fact that he didn't hold out his hand for her as a greeting as he did with Mandu.
"So what has life here been like while i was gone? Anything interesting life threatening happen?"
At first, Ritsuka was going to just scoff indicating that no, nothing interesting at all has happened but then she remembered the incident with Sarah. How could she have forgotten? She probably wanted to forget somewhere on the inside knowing that she got her ass handed to her by a stupid charm she wasn't prepared for.
"Erm, I don't know if Citrine has told you, but we killed someone," She said mono-tone. Looking up in thought she laughed, "Well, more like she killed someone. I was there and just happened to witness it, barely." Rolling her eyes at herself, she rolled up part of her sleeve to reveal the new collection of scars that will stay with her 'till she leaves this world. "Whatever. That b!tch had it coming." She, then, quickly rolled it back down to hide her arm.
A small stream of water drizzled down the tree and came in contact with Ritsuka's tail causing it to twitch up in alarm. Looking over her shoulder, she hissed a bit at it and brought her tail to her lap. She loved the rain, very much so, but she could do without the moisture.

"Must have been fun, that is except for your arm." said Alucard smiling at the thought of Citrine kicking ass. The rest of the story affected him only slightly as he was day dreaming. He knew it was probably rude but he hoped they wouldn't notice. Happy thoughts really. Then he laughed slightly at Ritsuka's bad talk of this horrible Sarah person, snaping out of his day dream. "How bout you citrine, any details she missed out on?" he asked trying to pull her into the conversation.

Citrine shifted her weight and bit her lip. She was smiling slightly, but still somewhat uncomfortable. Perhaps it was too soon to be talking about it? And was it supposed to stay secret? She could definitely trust Alucard, but... Mandu? He was nice and all, but she hadn't known him very long and murder wasn't exactly something easily accepted. Citrine remembered her last words that day: Tell them I did it. What the hell do I care?
"Ok, you know me." She started out bluntly, shifting her weight again, her body language asking for understanding. "I wouldn't kill unless it was, without a doubt, necessary." Citrine turned to glance at Ritsuka, wondering if she was thinking, too, of the better word they often used: 'nessa.' "She was a whiny, spoiled, obnoxious, idiotic, boy crazy,... well, overall blond... b!itch, like Ritsuka said. That hardly calls for murder."
Citrine's eyes fell to the ground. "There had to have been something wrong with her. Ritsuka and I insulted her, but it couldn't have been the only thing to make her lose it like that." Her eyes found Alucard's again. "She came to the forest and nearly burned the bloody thing down, tree by tree. She attacked Ritsuka, and she attacked me. She was losing it, and it seemed that every try we made to stop her just amused her, and made her crazier. So... I acted... that is, after she attacked Ritsuka, and Kazuo." Her eyes glanced to Ritsuka with the last name. "Seth helped. Not that I needed it." She smirked a bit.
"I killed her quickly, though, painlessly, that is. Even as she died, I could see the hatred in her eyes, not just for me, but for the world. She was so bloody angry." Citrine shook her head in pity. "Nothing is worth all that wasted energy."[Inside the Actor's Studio with Mike Myers... I'm rofl-ing. ]

Citrine's shifting of body weight meant she was slightly nervous. Alucard had know idea why. Either he'd been gone longer then what he thought, she didn't want to kill and share, or she didn't know tis Mandu very long. The silence continued for a moment as at least he listened to the enclosing thunder, feeling the static in the air as lightning struck.
Alucard opened his mouth to speak but didn't know what to say. He thought of things to say but he wanted to be alone with Citrine but that would be slightly hard. Then out of no where really he said," Who's hungry?" Now he didn't mean for blood. That is a common misconception. Vampires can eat things other then blood. Frankly Alucard quite liked toaster waffles and cake with a slush. Thats not saying he liked those things better but when eating was required for appearance sake he loved those items of food.

"Nice to meet you. Are you a friend of Citrine?" said the newcomer. "Nice to meet you too." said Mandu politely Mandu sat back and watched as the three people around him conversed Ritsuka mentioned that "they" as in Citrine and herself killed someone. Mandu was shocked but then again he doesn't know these two all that well. He listened as Citrine and Ritsuka discussed what went down in the forbidden forest. He then stared out into the scenery and tuned everything out. It wasn't until Alucard mentioned something about getting food that Mandu was brought back into reality. Mandu finally spoke once again and said "That sounds like a good idea." Looking up into the sky he wondered how long the storm was going to last.
