Ulferic raises an eyebrow slightly at the other as he backpedals in his entire demeanor. He snorts slightly, coming out of his attack stance and walking slowly over, reaching down and yanking on the others cloak, pulling it out of the bush. He frowns slightly in thought, tail flicking behind him. "You're looking for Lina Inverse.. to ask about your dead father?" He ignores the description of his mother, finding all but the weak reg part to be true in his mind. "I know of her, yes. But first, who are you and why do you think you deserve to be in her presence? Dead father or no, she probably wouldn't be interested in meeting with you." He frowns again, watching the other for a reaction. "Who was your father, anyway..?"

Monster stands up and dusts the dirt off his knees then looks up, his eyes locked on Ulferic as he speaks. Such a confident voice, strong. It match his look very well. He was so lost in all of it he almost didn't catch the words themselves.
"I am more then I seem. That is why I want to talk with Lina. Deserving to be in the presence of a reg, that sounds so odd. It's not like she is a Goddess." He smiles a little, but then realizes he better not do anything to loose his chance to talk to her. "She is powerful though I guess. Luna was the one who calls her weak, I never heard my mother call her that. And if she is Luna's sister then I am sure she is a handful, I'd think you'd have to have some strong balls to deal with Luna growing up. I don't really want to meet her, no chit chat all buddy like. I am just interested in what she knows about my father. My mom pretty much never talks about him. But Luna told us how he tried to become a god, how he ended up in such pain he went to the god of death to die. I want to know more, there has to be more to him, about him. Was he a baddie? or a different race? Who was his parents? Why did he try to become a god? How does Luna now about him. Was he a follower of Ein Sof as Luna is? Was he ebil or good? Did he know about me and Xella, and if he did why would he kill himself? Why would he not see us? Did I not live up to his expectations? Were we not worth anything to him? Why does his memory hurt my mother so much? Why does she cringe every time Xella says "that's a secret," or when I have tea?" Monster pauses, realizing he was just rambling on and on.
"I don't know his name even. But I know my sister and I were named using both our parents names. So, take Xella and Ésto, minus Até. So his name is something with a X,E,L,L,S and an O in it."

Ulferic frowns the more this other baddie talks about his father. "I... may know at least a little of that myself. My mother is Lina Inverse. She told me... enough... about the time I was an egg for me to recognize the hair style of the one you're speaking of, at least. His name is Xellos Metallium. I believe mother mentioned he was a Wazzit, and the b***h Goddess' favorite follower. He... tried to take over the b***h's domain to protect your mother from harm, but he, being mortal, was not strong enough or in balance enough to control the magic and responsibility that came with the domain. Mother said that he tried or at least threatened, to destroy me on numerous occasions throughout the journey, as if testing my mother to see what it would take to make her break. I, myself, am an accident. I don't know my own father, or even if I have any brothers or sisters. My mother was kidnapped when she was separated from the group and drugged." He shrugs slightly, as if being born in such a way didn't bother him. He clenches a fist, however, before glaring at Monster again. "Your father, or so my mother said, went crazy and tried to kill everyone around him, including her. She had to use a spell with the b***h Goddess' help to turn the power back on himself. I don't know much more then that since mother says he vanished shortly after." He pauses, tail swishing slightly, before speaking again. "I will take you to my mother. She'll be able to tell you more, probably, since your father is an old traveling companion of hers from before you or I were born. I warn you, however, that if you upset her, it won't just be her who'll be kicking your a**. I'll most likely help. And mother has never mentioned having a sister to me..." He frowns slightly at the thought that his mother would keep anything secret from him at all. "Mother is also known as the Bandit Killer, so that should give you some idea as to her strength."

Xellos.. the name rang a bell in his head. Ein Sof's best follower, the mortal she raised. He heard of him a little when he had tried to find out about Ein once, wanting to know more about Luna, the girl that kept bothering her mother. His father was a follower of that goddess? Até hated Ein Sof, why would she have been involved with a such a loyal follower? His eyes glare a bit at Ulferic now, starting to not trust his words. But Luna did say he tried to become a god, so what Ulferic was saying seemed to fit. And his tone when talking didn't seem to have any lies to it. So what Ulferic was saying is something he truly believed. His gaze let up a little, not knowing what to think now. He kept listening without saying a word.
"I don't know... If I want to know more." His voice was soft. "If all I am going to keep hearing is how messed up he was, what bad things he did. Then it's good he is dead." Both anger and sadness was in his eyes.

Ulferic blinks at the other male for a moment, one eyebrow raising archly. "You are a baddie, yet... you don't care for bad things or evil? That is... strange. I'm sure he wasn't always bad, else I don't think mother would have put up with him in the first place. Or, if he was bad always, he managed to hide it very well from her." He frowns once again, tail swishing, then nods, almost as if he had come to a decision about something. "Perhaps it is for the best that your father is dead then, since you seem to have a problem with the nature of your own race." He himself didn't really have too big a problem with causing chaos, unless it caused his mother or her mate problems, that is. "I don't think anyone other than your mom even knew of your existence out of the people your father knew that weren't part of the b***h's temple. Perhaps you really should meet mother. It could be beneficial to you and your sister should anything come up later on. When mother gives her trust in someone, generally, they have it until they betray her in some way. I doubt she'd be so nice to your father again if he were still alive, but you and your sister and your mother haven't done anything to her, personally, so she should hold no ill will towards you." He honestly wasn't sure WHY it felt important to let this other know that about his mother, but he felt it, so, it must be known. "And if she has a sister, but didn't mention it, it's probably because of some personal issue she has. If you don't believe my word about your father, you should still talk to mother anyway. Hearing it from her own lips would probably help your mind at least cope with things."

"I have no issues with bad things. My name is Monster after all." although it is the name he gave himself when he was little, after someone had insulted him by saying he was acting like a reg. "But, the crazy stuff. Who would be so stupid to try and become a god. And pain goes away, no mater how bad it is. Why go have the god of death kill you?" He was yelling now.
"Sorry. You told me all you know. I'm not mad at you. I just don't understand. Até said he loved us. But why pick death then, why leave us?" He looks forward, lost in thought for a moment. "I am not sure what I should do. If there is something redeeming about him that Lina knows, I would want to know. Or something to explain why he was so messed up. But, Ein Sof has had Luna around to make sure we don't go to her temple or to Lina pretty much since I was hatched. If there is something about Lina that a goddess doesn't want me to know, maybe I shouldn't know it?"
(( This is hard. Xellos is not suppose to know Até is alive until the end of Slayers Trip RP (the RP with ValGavv plot, that is after Reordered, the Lina having the Hell Slave Key plot.) This RP here is even before Reordered starts, long before Xellos is suppose to find out Até is alive.
But, I was thinking, in Reordered Xellos is a pretty big creep. First working for the hellhound goddess from Ein's orders. (to find the amp device that can create the hell slave and destroy it, or destroy the "key" that can make it work.) Then at the end, after he finds out Zoam is his father, he is helping him and Carlos. But he is really always is trying to make sure Lina isn't hurt, but not showing this to anyone, not even Lina. And is never nice to Zel or Amelia. So it could just be that any time it might come up, were Lina might tell him about Até, he ends up doing some jerk thing that pisses her off? Because other then maybe Luna interference, I can not see how Lina will not find out Até is alive, especially when the kids come making them both the grandmothers of the same kids. ))

Ulferic scowls a bit, his right eyebrow twitching slightly. "Who the ******** cares what that b***h goddess does or doesn't want? Mom told me she's a manipulative b***h that cares for no one and once you've done what she wanted, she drops you like a lump of s**t." He clenches his fist again, nails biting into the palms of his hands slightly. "I'm sure the reason your father went off the deep end is because of that b***h. She hides things, too." He reaches out and attempts to grab Monster's arm, definitely intent on dragging him to see Lina if he had to. "C'mon. You are talking with Mother."
((XD Xellos isn't in this rp anyway? *shot* I dunno if Lina would tell him, honestly, considering she's still pissed at him for threatening her egg and the lives of so many others.))

Monster's eyes widen a little. He seemed to hate the goddess as much as his own mother did. When he sees the movement he quickly steps back. He smiles a little, not sure why really. There was just something about Ulferic that kept pulling his attention.
"I can walk myself there." he snaps a little. He walks past him, not even knowing if he was headed the right way.

Ulferic frowns as the other steps back away from him, then walks ahead of him down the path. He snorts, then stalks after Monster, wondering just what the hell he got himself into with this other baddie. "Tch... This way, Monster." He says, motioning with his head to what seemed to be an old, nearly hidden path in the woods. "Mom doesn't get a whole lot of visitors, so it's easy to miss this path." He walks down the path ahead of the other, tail flicking once again behind him.

"Oh." He stops then starts walking the way Ulferic directed. "Surprised you don't have a lot." And his speaking before thinking sticks again. He starts walking a little faster hoping Ulferic wouldn't think anything of the remark. After a while, he starts whistling a little tune. Something that got stuck in his head after hearing Luna whistle it so often. Some of the light flickering in from the cracks of the canopy above them seemed to dance to the same rhythm. Then a couple beams seem to follow Monster, almost completely removing his shadow.

Ulferic stops suddenly and looks over his shoulder at Monster. "Mom's reputation scares most normal people. So, only those she's traveled with come by. I believe her chosen mate has gone off on another of his own personal searches, so for now, it is just me and her here." He turns and starts walking again, cupping his hands around his mouth and howling like a wolf before stepping around some bushes in the path.
Lina, hearing Ulferic's usual way of announcing he was home, stops categorizing the items she'd gained from bandit beating and steps out of the hut in the small clearing, raising an eyebrow at the white and gold male behind her son. She frowns slightly, crimson eyes taking in the hair style and purple eyes. "So.. Looks like Xellos did have some kids after all. Unless you're one of Ein's followers, in which case, you and she can shove whatever she wants up your a** and promptly leave my residence before I Inverse Screw Crush you." She says, her tone rather unfriendly as she mentions Ein.

Monster smiles a little, interesting way of letting others know you are around. He stays close to Ulferic as Lina steps out. She was so small, but as she got talking the stature began to get more and more intimidating.
"I'm not here for Ein Sof, I'm not even allowed in her temple. And the hair is the same cut Dio always gives me, it has nothing to do with a Goddess or my Father." He steps out from behind Ulferic to get a better look of her. "Mother was right, you really are quit overdressed. But Luna isn't all that bigger then you, don't get the short and flat part."

Ulferic keeps his expression blank, looking from his mother to Monster and back again. The sight of the other's hair cut had obviously upset his mother. Maybe it had been a bad idea to bring the other here..?
Lina frowns, eyebrow twitching slightly at the 'short and flat' part of Monster's reply, then pales and looks around quickly as she realizes the other mentioned her sister. "L-Luna? I-Is she here?" She was worried that her sister would indeed show up and make her pay for the incident that had caused her to become a wandering bandit killer at any moment. Neither seeing nor sensing her older sister around, she relaxes slightly, then frowns again and ushers Monster and Ulferic inside. "What brings you here, then, if not... Ein... or your dad, Xellos..?"

"No, she isn't. I made sure she was busy before I ran." He says surprised at how much and quickly Lina changed, but then thinking about Luna, he wasn't all that surprised. But any thoughts of the matter leave as they move inside.
"Well, my hair has nothing to do with him. But my father is why I am here. I just wanted... Até pretty much never talks about him, and the few things she does say I am starting to have trouble believing. You knew him, and Ein seems to not want Até, my sister or myself to talk with you. So there must be a reason. You traveled with him. I just want to know what he was like. If... If me and Xella had any part in why he is dead."

Lina blinks at the baddie before her for a moment, then sighs and motions for he and her son to sit at the table before she makes a quick pot of tea. "First... Well... Your father wasn't exactly an evil person... He just liked his secrets a bit too much. He would sometimes keep information from us as we traveled, merely answering with "That is a Secret!" anytime he was asked. I had grown to think of him as a friend, even if he and a couple of the others in our group didn't quite trust him. Unfortunately, he was raised by Ein Sof. That's where the hair cut comes from, I believe, since she's got her own cut similarly. The... last time I traveled with your father, it was when the seal on this necklace of Ein's was deteriorating. It was leaking all kinds of power and emotions. It affected your father more so than any of the others in the group, I'm sad to say. Made him test boundaries he shouldn't have tested. I've already told Ulferic most of it, since he was an egg throughout the last part of the trip. As the necklace started affecting your father more and more, he would threaten my egg, just to get a reaction out of me, I think..." She pauses for a moment, not really relishing reliving the events of... was it only a few months ago now..? She sighs, shaking her head slightly, then continues, voice sounding somewhat sad. "The reason the necklace affected him more is because it had Ein Sof's emotions locked up inside it. This is how she's able to use mortals as nothing more than pawns in her games, not caring what harm she causes to any of them. She raised Xellos the same way. When the seal was deteriorating, the emotions thought that he was Ein Sof and he couldn't control them. They eventually drove him mad and what happened in the old Temple of Justice.... Alot of people were hurt. I don't think Ate had eggs at that particular point in time, since the last part of the battle involved her bringing me Ulferic's egg after your father had stolen him away again. Ate was bringing me the egg and a demon your father and I had fought a year or so ago appeared behind her and... stabbed her in the back. I think that was the final straw that sent your father to not caring about anyone or anything. Eggs weren't mentioned until I cast an unknown spell on your father with Ein's help." She frowns again at that, hands clenching. She'd still slightly considered Xellos a friend, he couldn't help what that power had done to him, and she'd helped destroy him. "Up until the power corrupted him, I'm sure he loved your mother very much."
