"It's a place everyone longs to see...but most never find. You have three guesses." he said with a smirk.

Well, at least he had some clues, he had a thoughtful look as he considered it. "A place people want to find, but most never do..." He spoke out loud to himself. "How about...Nirvana?" There couldn't be that many words to find out what it is.

"Close, but not quite," Paradise chuckled. "Two guesses left." he said as he sat back on his rock.

Calim was close, but not quite. What was another word for Nirvana, that meant just about the same thing. Maybe, heaven? That was a place people wanted to go, right. But really, he couldn't see this guy being called heaven, it would suit him at all. It looked like he had sinned various times through his life, well the fact he had struck anyone with that sword of his wasn't exactly a good thing.
Two guesses, it was now or never then. "Alright, I'll take the two guesses now," He disliked suspense, well himself being in it at least. "It has to be Eden, or Paradise." If he got them both wrong, then he supposed he was stuck here, but it didn't matter he didn't mind staying here. That's what he would say if he liked the dull life he lived, this guy had to let him come along!

Paradise smiled. "You've done well...But you do have to give me a final answer. Which of the three names is mine?" he asked, leaning on Nehima. He loved playing these games, he wanted to see if the boy was as quick in wit as he was with his tongue.

What was with this guy?! He had taken up all three guesses, couldn't he tell him which one it was already. It was obvious he got one right. "Well, its not Nirvana." He had been told he was close, but that definitely wasn't it. "It has to be Eden, or Paradise...I really don't see how either name fits you." He muttered that last part, looking over the other guy here one more time. "I can see why you seem to think so highly of yourself," That was muttered also, but was still well enough heard by anyone listening.
"You mus be enjoying yourself," He randomly commented, thinking of how he had the option of not messing around with him like this. "I don't see you being called Eden." It somehow didn't fit him. Then again, Paradise seemed like a major ego booster, that might explain things so far. "I'm thinking its Paradise, am I right?" That was a place where people wanted to go, but never really found.

Paradise only smiled coyly, before standing. "Seems you are as quick in wit as I had hoped." he smiled. "You may join me," he said as he stood, grabbing his satchel.

Calim wasn't sure he liked this guy too much, well he wasn't sure hoe he would get along. "When do you plan on leaving this place?" He was wondering if the guy was taking off now, not giving him time to do anything. He at least needed to pack a few things, then he supposed he should tell his parents... As if! They wouldn't let him go anywhere, he was best packing things, then sneaking out somehow, surely he could manage that much, if he had the time to.
"I need to pack some things before I leave, like a change of clothes, there's no way I'm going to walk around naked in front of you." He was referring to just having one pair of clothing, then having that washed, going without for a bit, then putting it back on. That just wasn't happening, he'd even prefer to nab some of this guys clothes, which would definitely not fit, then go about in the nude anywhere near him.

"Understandable. I will wait for you here until nightbreak. Do not be late," he said before reclining back on his rock, folding his arms under his head.

So Calim did have a chance to get his things, that was good. "Alright, I'll be back. Don't leave without me." Not that he could stop him if he decided to, he would just have to hope he got back in time. The thought had him hurrying off, running off to be exact, heading straight back home. Now he had to ask himself, how would he get out with a full pack of things. He would have to secretly pack things, hopefully he could do so without bringing attention to himself.

Paradise drifted into a soft doze, not exactly sure why he was allowing a Jshiko child to travel with him--but his inner beast was all but ripping at his insides. It wanted the boy, and Paradise always listened to his intincts.

Calim did actually run the whole way, finding himself a bit out of breath as he reached the front door. Now he just had to act normal, he didn't like the thought of just walking out and never saying anything. So, he came to the conclusion of writing a note. What time was it now, it wasn't that early, sometime in the afternoon, he didn't feel he had too much time. Or should he say, time went by quickly sometimes, and he felt these would be one of those times.
"I have to pack lightly," He muttered that to himself, before walking inside of his home, stopping at the front door. He just had to take a moment to scope out the downstairs floor. He moved from the front area, to the living room, to the kitchen, the back that lead out to the backyard they had. It seemed luck was on his side, no one was out there. Unless, that was a bad thing, he would expect to see his mother in the kitchen, living room, or even in the backyard. The last one referring to the garden his bearer started, it was a beautiful one, he had even helped with it. It was still boring though, not something he mentioned to his bearer.
"I need to hurry," He spoke out loud, realizing he was pretty much dawdling around, he took this time to run up the stairs, only to come to an abrupt stop at the top. Of course he couldn't be that lucky, there was his bearer, coming out of the bedroom, his bedroom. "Hey mom," He had paused, but realized he had no reason to seem suspicious, or odd here. Which didn't really explain why he suddenly went up and embraced his bearer without warning, practically burying his face in his clothing.
"Well, hello to you to," Frey, Calim's bearer, spoke with a smile, returning the random embrace for a moment. "Anything the matter?" It was random behavior, which usually meant something.
"No, not at all, I was just going to my room," He had pulled back then, and moved to go off to his room. "You go on with what you were doing," He didn't wait for his bearer to reply before going into his bedroom, and closing the door behind him. Now he headed straight to get a decent sized pack he had, stuffing clothes into it, along with a few other things. Hopefully his bag wouldn't be too heavy when he was leaving. He had to find a way to get out of the house with it, maybe drop it from the window, then pick it up outside. A note came first though.

"Ssssssooooo, we meet again, Demon of Fire..." came a hissing sound from behind Paradise. He didn't move to acknowledge the snake demon, only cracked open one eye.
"Not by choice Hallaal, what do you want?" he asked.
"I hear tell that you are traveling with a little Jssssssshiko..." Hallaal smirked.
"Wonder how you heared that unless you were having me followed." Paradise said, unpeturbed.
"I like to keep tabssss on my enemiessssss...." The snake demon hissed. Paradise yawned. "Well, I like to kill mine off. I'll give you twenty seconds to leave my clearing, or Nehima will find her place in your throat." said the beautiful Fire demon.

"I'll just bring this along, just in case, then this and this," Calim gave pause to his packing, wondering if he was bringing too much. So far, it was mainly clothes. But he had a few items as well. More like some sentimental things, just a handful of things. "I suppose I'm about ready," Now came the note, quickly Calim found a piece of paper, along with something to write with, then he started to write.
It took a few minutes to write something down, the truth to be exact, or some of it. Calim had met a...friend, and this friend was going to let him travel with him for a bit. Thinking he wouldn't be allowed to go, he had to leave without saying anything. There was was a part about him coming back eventually, and that he would be safe, no one needed to worry. That ended the note, and Calim made sure to place it somewhere it could be seen, now he needed to get out. The sooner the better, what time was it now? Would he have time to eat, his mother hadn't been cooking, he had to try and go without, that was a downer. "Alright, its now or never." Which was rather literal at the moment.
It was straight to the window, Calim had mostly clothes in the bag, so making sure it was sealed, he stuck it out the window, with the intention of dropping it. Nothing would break, he had nothing to worry about, he had that thought in mind when he dropped the bag. Hoping, or rather praying it didn't make a loud noise, it surprisingly landed with a soft thud, and he found himself breathing again, when had he stopped?
"Now I need to get downstairs," Calim debated on going out his room and straight down the stairs, or trying to jump out of the window, as crazy as it sounded. "Maybe if I landed on the bag." It was worth a try, he believed it would work, so much he was sticking his foot out the window. What was the worst that could happen? He could break a leg, or his neck, he could get seriously injured, but he had to do this.
"Alright..." He took a deep breath in, before letting it out. Calim deemed himself a very crazy person, so the moment he was completely out and suddenly falling on the window, he actually closed his eyes, letting out a rather small yep before he landed on something relatively soft. Looks like he hit the target, or so he saw when he opened his eyes and smile, now he could head back to the woods, hopefully that Paradise guy was still there, he started to make his way back now.

Paradise smirked as he counted. "One...two...three...four....five..." he had barely gotten to twelve when there was a shuffling around.
He glanced up, looking up to see that the male was gone. He smirked, directing his gaze to the stars. Little did Paradise know, Hallaal had simply changed course and was heading straight for Calim.
"Hello petttttt..." came his hiss from the darkness as the demon hovered around Calim. "Fine night to die, isssss it not?"
