Rai looked up to his large house, it had been ages sense he had set foot on his own property, he took a breath. It would be hard to explain to his roommates why he suddenly just vanished for almost a year. He did own the place, so its not like they could kick him out but he was worried about what the inside looked like, with the mass of people that lived in the place it got messed up easily.
Walking closer to the house he couldn't help but frown, Rai's large man eating plants has shriveled and died in his absence. Their purple and pink spotted petals lay at the base of their now brown stems, white teeth of the plants sparkling in the moonlight.
Rai walked up the three creaky steps to the porch and stuffed his black skeleton key into the lock. Rai knew that having the old locking system of skeleton keys was dumb and easliy picked but to him having the long black key was worth it. Besides anyone that would enter his house for the sake of harming his friends had another thing coming to them.he didn't hear anything coming from the house, and worry washed over him, what if Rin had sent people to take over while he was away?
Rai swung the door open and immediately saw Lisa sleeping on the couch. He smiled, until he saw she was holding a pistol. "Is that what there resorting to? Rai though shaking his head. Looking away from her, his fear had become reality, the house was trashed.

"Woah!" the little girl on the ceiling shouted in surprise, as one of her spider legs lost it's grip and she came tumbling down right into Rai's arms. She swished her short black hair out of her eyes and blinked, looking up at Rai. "Rai!" Kumi shouted, and hugged him around the neck.

Rai smiled, he had missed kumi, she was the littlest one of his roommates. "Hello to you too" he joked returning her hug. Kumi was like a daughter to Rai, he had found her alone in a city ally way when she was only 2, and when he saw the tiny spider legs coming out of the child's back, Rai knew that nobody was going to care for the child.
Rai set her on the ground on her two human feet. "have you been taking good care of everyone?"He smiled.

"Yes! I have! I wanted to go on a mission with Levi and them, but they said I couldn't go. So they left me in charge of guarding the house! Lisa is helping me too, but she fell asleep..." Kumi rambled. She was in charge of the house now. She wouldn't let anything stop her! "Levi sorta took over when you left. I'm so glad you're back! We thought you--" Kumi cut her sentence short and buried her face in his coat and mumbled, "We thought you were dead.."

"Me, dead!? non-sense. I'll always be here for you, as for Lisa....does she even know how to use that gun?". Under his kidding around he was worried, what was Levi doing on a mission with every one...Looking about the room again he spied the digital clock that hung on the wall. the time read 1:47 am in glowing blue text. Rai hadn't realized how late he had gotten home. This troubled him more, why were they out so late.
"Did Levi tell you what the mission was?" He said in a more serious tone. Rai didn't think Levi would tell her something like that he never did like having a little kid around the house. Much less one with spider legs, spiders always creeped him out.

"He doesn't talk to me much.. I don't think he likes me," Kumi said, looking down. "But they should be home by now. They're usually home by midnight."

"I'm sure there ok, I'm also sure that you should be sleeping." He smiled and raised his eyebrow to the girl. Rai looked at Lisa. If somebody had broken in Kumi could have gotten killed and Lisa would sleep right through it. "Note to self, never have Lisa babysit" Rai thought annoyed.
Rai missed the days were Rin and him were allies, it was so much simpler to have no enemies, but that was before he found out what she was doing to the people in her mansion. If Levi was going to her mansion, he would probably need backup. But Rai couldn't leave Kumi alone with just Lisa, this called for a new Nothing.
Rai began leading Kumi to the Spiral staircase. He hoped she would go to her room and sleep, so he could make a guardian for her.

"But I want to stay up til they come back!" Kumi complained, walking up the staircase and into her room. She new she would get nowhere arguing with Rai though. Especially now that he had come back! She went into her room, and closed the door most of the way, but before it shut completely, she opened it again to face Rai. "Goodnight, Rai," she said smiling at him. "I'm so happy you came back."

"good night, Kumi"Rai said before going into his own room across the hall. He had moved down near the stairs to be closer to Kumi in case she had any problems during the night. It was good to be home, but he knew it wouldn't last long if war started with Rin's house.
Rai walked into his dark room and shut the door behind him. He quickly flicked the light switch and the room lit up, his walls were painted a pale green, and the furniture was all black and white. Rai liked a more modern style of room, and the green was said to be calming.
Rai walked over to a tall bookshelf covered with bottles with mysterious liquids and smokes. He pondered at the different colored smokes. "what color does Kumi like?" he though. Then he grabbed a bottle filled with a teal colored smoke. "This will do" he thought to himself as he set the bottle on his glass desk. Rai then got a small vile, it was filled with a color changing liquid and the vile was decorated with two red crystal snakes. Rai also grabbed a small black cauldron. He always thought he must look silly with all these generic wizardry items but its not like he didn't USE them.
Rai uncorked the jar with smoke and poured the more solid smoke into the cauldron then picking up the vile he put 5 drops of the now blue liquid into the cauldron as he said a few words in a foreign language. the Black cauldron hissed and a small teal person rose from the smoke.
The teal man had a blank look on his face, he was lacking personality. Rai said a Few more words in the same language as before. He ended his spell with "Protect Kumi with your whole being, You are her guardian." The Teal man was now another of his Nothings.
Nothings are an odd race that he created, they look almost human but they have different skin that is slightly transparent and lacking detail.Each one has a different power that will help them with there main assignment.Rai wanted there only goal to be there assignment but after living in a world full of distractions they create interests and widen there personality. Rai created many of these "Nothings" but only recently were any a success. Guardian being his fifth success he was proud of himself.

A knock came to Rai's door. Luna had heard Rai come in, but had not processed that it was him.
"Rai?" she called. "Is that really you?" she asked. She hadn't seen him in a while and was happy to hear he had returned.
Pretend he knows her, I guess. =p

Rai looked to the door, It was Luna. He didn't know her as well as others and didn't really want her to see his new creation just yet. He wasn't sure how she would judge his Nothings. When Rai didn't need them he would keep them in small boxes, He only had lost one of the boxes, and that was because he played a prank on Rin's mansion by leaving it there with Spirit (one of his nothings). "Yeah, its me." Rai said through the door. "I've had a long day I'm just going to sleep." He lied. His time on the streets made him a skilled lair as well as a thief.

Luna smiled when she heard him. "O~kay!" she said happily. "Have fun with whatever you're doing than!" With that, Luna skipped down to her room. Now Levi and everyone else just needed to come back and the house woud be full again!

As if on cue, the door opened and about 15 people came in, lead by Levi who had the key. He sighed as he let the rush of people pass him. Another unsuccessful day. Tomorrow they would try again. They HAD to get Abby back.. Why did she have to go investigate Rin's mansion? Levi knew she was immune being unconscious, but she wasn't that good of a fighter. And now she was captured. The missions weren't helping much, they couldn't find a way into the mansion. But they'll get her back. Levi made it his personal mission to rescue her.

Luna heard the rush of feet downstairs. She smiled and flw downstairs and tackled the first person in she could. "You're home!!!" she cried. She looked down to see who she tackled to see a sighing Heira.
"How did I know that was going to happen?" she muttered. But she smiled and hugged Luna back. "Good to see ya kid," she said ruffing the smaller girl's hair.
Luna smiled and laughed and went around giving everyone else hugs, as was her bubbly nature.

Levi avoided the welcome committee and immediately went upstairs to get some rest. As he got to the top of the stairs, he felt somthing was diffrent. He looked around and saw that Rai's door was closed. They left it open for whatever reason, but it was closed... Levi went over Rai's room, opened the door a bit and looked in. "Hello?"
