Secret Lives ~ 1x1 with Cloudsong and M.F.L

This forum is only for Cloudsong and M.F.L (My Fair Lady) to post on. Please leave your comments and questions, if any, to PM.
Thanks!

Cloudsong's Main Character

Name: Evan Velius

Age: 20

Gender: Male

Skills/Powers: He can control peoples' emotions, and can influence them without saying anything. His father, who is very angry and has a very sharp temper, is in a way kept sane and normal by his influences.

History/Personality: Evan's father is the owner of the circus, and since he showed early on that he had no real 'special talents' to perform, he was put in charge of all the office work at a young age. Because of him, the circus can still go on performing, and he knows that if he ever left, it would crash. Evan doesn't want to stay his whole life working in the little office finding work for the whole crew; he always dreamed of going to college, something that his father sneers at. But when he sees people like Sauda, who's whole life is dedicated to the show, he simply can't bring himself to leaving. He always was known for being quiet, something unusual for someone coming from such a loud family. His father, for instance, is so loud and rude that he offends many of the customers. His mother, who died when he was 6, was equally as loud and obnoxious.

Being as quiet as he is, he never really speaks to people in the circus. He just stays in his room most of the time, doing paperwork and finding different places for them to perform. He is not conscious of his influential powers.


Appearance: Dark brown, average-long straight hair, and hazel-colored eyes. He would be called by many handsome.



M.F.L's Main Character

http://i110.photobucket.com/albums/n106 ... icGirl.jpg

Name: Sauda Kent

Age: 19

Gender: Female

Species: Shape shifter

Skills/Powers: She can shape shift into a red fox. Sauda is extremely skilled with most animals. Anything that is prey to a fox, is afraid of Sauda. 

Appearance: Sauda has long, light amber hair that is usually held up in to large pony tails, with black ribbon. She lets most of her hair fall down her back when the sides are up. Her bangs are cut so that if she looks down and then up, her right eyes is covered with hair. A single purple flower is attached to the black ribbon in her left pony tail. She doesn't use any make up except some simple purple lipstick on her lips. Lavender eyes contrast her pale skin. Her nose is small and slightly rounded at the end. Her eyebrows draw thin, curved and dark amber lines over her eyes. Three black earrings pierce her left ear. Sauda's neck is adorned with a black and purple necklace that her mother gave her when she was a small child. On her left wrist three purple bracelets hang. Her fingertips are constantly painted purple. She wears a frilly black dress that ends just above her knees. Inside the first of the ruffles on the lower part of the dress is a small secret sheath for Sauda's precious knife. Over the dress she wears a dark purple corset/jacket. It's sleeves come down most of her arm and are folded at the bottom to reveal the black within the sleeves. The corset part of the jacket has a large v shape, crisscrossed with a very long piece of black ribbon. On her feet she wears black cowgirl boots. There is a pattern, of small purple flowers, leaves and vines, on the top of each boot. Sauda stands at about 5'8. 

Sauda is known as Gypsy in her animal form. "Gypsy" is a medium sized fox, standing about 2 feet tall. All four of her legs are black. The main part of her body is a amber/orange color, with patches of white mostly in the tail area. The front side of her neck is pure white. Her tail is white and black together in a speckled pattern. Her face is a mixture of white and the amber/orange color. The edges of her ears are black. Her eyes change to a different color when she shifts, from lavender to brown. 


Personality: Sauda may seem cold, insensitive, cruel, and rude, but put her with animals and she's the complete opposite. She's sweet, loving, sensitive, and funny. If you work hard enough, you might be able to break through the outer shell she's built around her true self. The last person who tried, well let's just say, no one really knows what happened except Sauda, though she swears she never did anything to him. Sauda is violent if you get on her nerves. You can always tell when she's annoyed or angry because she starts to finger the right side of her dress, where there is a hidden knife. 

Bio: Sauda was born on a farm in the middle of nowhere. She was the youngest of 12 children and so was greatly ignored by her parents. Gypsy, the sister that was closest to Sauda in age, was the only in the family that paid attention to her. Only the two of them knew that Sauda had a secret. She had found out early in her life that she could shape shift. When Sauda was 11 years old, her mother became very sick. Sauda loved her mother, even though she never paid any attention to her. She cared for her mother's every need, but she got worse every day. When Sauda's mother was awake, she talked with her youngest child, realizing her mistake, not paying attention to her. She always wore this beautiful and elegant necklace, which she as she lay on her death bed, decided to give to Sauda. After she was dead and the family had mourned, Sauda noticed a difference in her siblings. They all hated her, except Gypsy of course. They were all out to get her, several times Sauda was almost killed by the things they tried to do to her. As always, her father took no notice of her and didn't care when Gypsy complained to him about what the others were doing to Sauda. For years this torture continued. Sauda was treated meanly every day, she had to watch her back every second or she could be killed by her own family. When she turned 15, Gypsy and Sauda sneaked away in the night. They stumbled upon a traveling circus that was passing through the area. They took in the two girls, as they had promised to work for the circus in return for food, clothes, safety, and place to sleep. They lived with the circus, traveling from town to town, from city to city. The circus made Sauda an animal trainer and Gypsy a performer. Sadly, soon afterwords there was a horrible accident and Gypsy was killed. Sauda, who previously had been sweet and loving, changed into a cold, hateful person. The circus let her keep her job, for she was so good at it. Some noticed that Sauda returned to her old self when she was alone with her animals. Around the same time that Gypsy died, a fox appeared in the middle of the circus. One of the existing trainers decided to see if he could train this fox. Sure enough, the fox seemed used to human contact and was easy to train. The trainer, Jonathan, named the fox Gypsy in honor of Sauda's sister, whom he had fallen in love with. He lets Gypsy free every night, but the next day, she always returns. No one has figured out where Gypsy/Sauda really goes every night. Her bed is on a small board securely attached to the bottom of Sauda's wagon where all of her animals are kept and trained.

Sauda yawned softly as she got up. She lay in her wagon, on her simple yet sturdy bed. Time to get to work, Sauda. Another day, another time. There's a show on this afternoon, so let's get a move on. With a sigh, she pulled on her boots and and combed her hair. Ready for the day, she exited her wagon and moved to the main tent, the largest one, where they trained the animals and showed the animals at the show. She had to train Darla first, one of the elephants. She was the star in tonight's show. A loud voice behind her said. "You going to train Darla?"

Sauda turned to see the ringmaster and nodded. "Yes sir, I am. Is there a problem with that?"

"No, no, just making sure of what you are doing."

Sauda nodded. She was usually impolite with others, but the ringmaster, she was always polite with not sweet but respectfully polite. This man had taken care of her and helped her be kept on when her sister had been killed.

"Go about your business. Hurry, hurry. Show starts in...5 hours."

Sauda nodded again and hurried into the tent. A range of snorts and roars greeted her ears and a soft smile escaped onto her lips. No one was in here expect her and the animals. She walked straight to where Darla was being kept and let her out into the ring. Darla immediatly started to nose Sauda's hand with her trunk. There was a bag full of peanuts in her hand after all. "Alright, alright, girl! I'll give you some, but then you have to do your best to train, okay?"

As if understanding Darla backed off a bit and Sauda reached in the bag to grab a handful of the nuts. Darla happily sucked them up in her trunk and started to munch on them.

Evan was silent as he clicked the print button on his computer monitor. The circus had never really flowed with money, but he had insisted to his father early on that he get a computer to complete programs, and to plan future events. And even then, his father being as cheap as he was, the computer he had purchased for his son had been a second-hand deal, and would at times stop working all together. But today, the large screen seemed to be cooprative, and Evan couldn't help but wonder if perhaps it was a hint that today would be better than he was expecting it to be. The days were starting to weigh on him after awhile; being cooped inside of the camp with basically nothing to do was enough to drive anyone crazy.

As the programs for the afternoon's show began to print, Evan got up and stretched, smiling slightly as a gentle breeze of cool air blew into his face from the open window. Leaving the computer to do its job, he left the wagon, hopping down onto the grass. It was a beautiful day, and the weather was just right for a show. He didn't fully trust his father to have gotten everything prepared, so Evan approached the training tent that the show would take place in. As soon as he was about ten feet away, he heard the sounds of animals, and he knew that the trainers would be perfecting their acts for the performance to come. Silently he pulled the door open, and slipped inside, seeing that it was Sauda who was inside.

He barely knew the girl; they spoke sparingly, and she hadn't seemed at all interested in cultivating a friend relationship with him. So he had left her alone after her sister had died all those years ago, and Sauda seemed to have preferred it that way. Evan watched as she gently treated the elephant, and he couldn't help but smile. He was glad that his father had let Sauda keep her job - although, he had been present when he had made the decision, and perhaps had effected that decision - for she was one of the only trainers that used positive reinforcement rather than negative. Some of the other animal trainers that had passed by the circus had been cruel, and Evan had made sure that they lost their jobs. Animal cruelty was something he had never tolerated.

Sauda did not notice Evan at first, she was concentrated on Darla. "Come on, that's a good girl, Darla. Good girl. Step up, step up, there you go, good girl, that's a good girl." Darla balanced on her front legs on a barrel and waited. "You can get down, girl. Come on, good girl." The elephant cow settled its front feet back on the ground and walked towards Sauda. Her eyes flickered once from her trainer's face to glance at the man standing across the tent. Sauda picked up on the eye flicker, but didn't turn around to see who it was. She figured it was Jonathan, who else would be standing in the training tent?

"Go do your trick, Darla. Open." Darla's eyes seemed to study her trainer for a moment before she left to go to the other elephant's cages. With a practiced flick of her trunk, she had opened the cages. Sauda whistled and four other elephants came out, all female. "Come on, Magic, Maya, Sarah, Chloe." The five, including Darla, stood in front of Sauda who still had her back to Evan. Chloe, their newest addition, trumpeted at Evan and snorted. "It's alright, girl. Why are you being loud? You know..." Sauda turned around to see Evan and her eyes grew wider in surprise before she turned back around quickly.

Seeing how the elephants' uncertain reactions to seeing him there, Evan hesitated before contemplating leaving. Obviously his presence was a disruption, and he took a step back. Before he could leave however, Sauda had turned around, and he saw how shocked she seemed. Perhaps even uncomfortable that he was watching her? He bit his lip, feeling guilty for having entering without asking permission.

"I was just checking in to make sure everything was in order," he said, smiling slightly as he ran a hand through his hair. "If... if you have any questions about tonight, I'll be in the office." His voice trailed off, and quickly he turned and left the tent, not wanting to disrupt any further. He wasn't exactly sure why, but he felt nervous whenever he was in the presence of only Sauda. It was odd, because he never really felt nervous about anything.

Sauda listened to Evan's words and then the sounds of him leaving, the footsteps fading away from the tent. Sauda shook her head slightly, why was he so touchy? She had not meant that he had to leave, she had just surprised that it had not been Jonathan standing there. As she was still lost in her thoughts, someone entered the tent and walked up behind her, setting their hands upon her shoulders.

At the touch, she jumped, moving a few steps forward, rather quickly. She shivered a little as she turned around to look who it was. Of course, it was Jonathan with a stupid grin on his face. "Guess who I just passed on the way inside?"
Sauda glanced down at boot covered feet. "Evan. Evan, the son of the owner. Why would he be coming here?"
"To check out if everything is going alright with the preparations for tonight."

Jonathan chuckled and shook his head slightly and said. "He looked a little distracted, why don't you go and talk with him and I'll take over the training. I am secondary trainer for the elephants, and I haven't been training them much lately."

Sauda glared at him and then heaved a sigh. "Fine, but be careful with the new one. She can be a bit too feisty." She handed him the bag of peanuts and jogged outside, heading towards the office. Sauda really didn't know why she was doing something this stupid, but Jonathan always had that effect on her. He could make her do stupid things by only saying a few lines.

Evan found himself following the path they had taken when they had come to the location; the dirt road that led to the main town. They were a little way off from the civilization, and for some reason he felt himself feeling the need to be near more people now. That, and he was feeling exceptionally low that day. He kept on turning around and thinking to himself, What am I doing here? Was this really what his whole life would be like? Spending his time organizing shows, and keeping his father's temper at bay? Somehow, he couldn't quite bring himself to believe it, and kept on returning to the offer the man had given him from a college in a surrounding city. He had turned it down in an instant, but now he was wondering if it had been the right decision.

He seemed completely and utterly absorbed in his thoughts, and didn't notice the sound of jogging far behind him back in the camp. After all, he didn't really expect someone to be following him.

The ground was a little muddy from the recent rain in these parts, so Sauda followed the footprints she hoped were Evan's. She really didn't know his shoe size, but she knew what his walk was like and that helped her a little. Following Evan to talk with him was not something that Sauda ever thought she would be doing. When her sister had died, Evan had helped the owner decide to keep her on as a trainer, for which she was eternally grateful, but she could never tell Evan that. She had never strived to become friends with the boy and so he had stayed away from her for the most part and she did the same, though she did that with everyone, except Jonathan.

Evan was different than her, that she knew caused her to be curious. He seemed to have a dream, a purpose. She had none in this life anymore. Her sister had been her shining star, her light, her purpose, and her dream. Now, it was gone and Sauda didn't know what to do. She shook her head as she ran, it was not time to get stuck in memories. She had an Evan to catch up to. Sauda pushed herself faster, her feet sloshing through the mud at a rapid speed, her boots getting splashed by the droplets of mud that she kicked up.

She soon realized that Evan was not heading towards the office, instead towards the road that led to the town. Why he would be going that way, Sauda couldn't guess, but she continued on her chase. An idea sprouted into her head but she shook it away. How could she do that? How would he react if a fox came running up to him and walked with him? That was not the natural reaction of a fox to a human and he would surely recognize her as 'Gypsy' from Jonathan's performances which would raise questions to her, more than what was already asked.

As soon as he came within view of the town, Evan stopped. He loosely crossed his arms across his chest, gazing at it with an unreadable and blank expression on his face. A part of him wanted to enter into the loud, lively jumble of people that filled the streets, while another just felt like turning around and going back to camp. The show would be starting soon, and although everything was ready, he felt some foreboding sensation creep up through his back as he stared at the looming church tower from the town. But why? Nothing seemed out of the ordinary - no red flags were exactly waving. He wasn't sure why, but he felt as if someone was watching him. Very slowly, he turned towards the direction he had come from, and his narrowed eyes widened as he saw he was indeed being followed.

Sauda. His first thought was that she wanted something for before the show. This made him feel guilty, for his job was to be there before to keep everything in order. But by the look on her face, she didn't seem angry or distressed by some problem. If anything, she seemed curious. Could she be following him for another reason? He raised an eyebrow questioningly, and smiled slightly. "...Hi," he said finally. The second it left his mouth, he really wished that he hadn't said anything at all. Hi? Really, Evan? He had wanted to sound mysterious, or even friendly. With his comment, however, neither of those had come off.

Sauda could finally see his figure in the distance and she let out a relieved sigh, she hated running in mud and was glad that she could soon stop. As she grew closer, he turned around and looked at her with a look of surprise. She slowed to a jog and then a stop, panting slightly. Sauda had never been one for running, so it took her a few moments to catch her breath before she spoke up.

When she straightened from the bent posture she had stopped in, Sauda answered him. "Hi back. She really didn't know what to say, her social ability was rather lacking, but there was one thing she knew she could say without portraying much emotion. "Show's gonna start soon. Where are you going?"

Where are you going? How is that not an emotional question? What if he thinks I ran after him because I was worried? I only ran after him because...Well, there really isn't much of a reason, but I can use Jonathan as an excuse if he asks! Sauda thought to herself, not believing the words that had come out of her mouth. She really wasn't worried about Evan and she didn't know why she had chased after him except for Jonathan's persuasion.
