Raey walked over to Arrin's grave and crouched down. She placed a bouquet of flowers upon the grave. Raey smiled, and sat down on a bench across from the tombstone. She pulled out her sketch pad and flipped to an empty page. She tapped the end of her pencil against the page trying to figure out what to draw.

Demetri had been wondering around dove hill. This place once used to represent love and peace, now people have forgotten that meaning, and instead instead of those happy thoughts, they think of Death and blood when the name Dove Hill is said. Part of that made him angry at pathetic humans, they never appreciated what they once knew, the present always makes the past fade.. always.
He was walking down to the Grave yard which Held few graves, mostly of his Vampire friends and relatives, a few were not. The special part about this grave yard is that ever magical creature that entered the human world, has been buried here.
Demetri almost walked passed her, but instead stopped right before he would have. "Hello." He said softly turning to face her. This was not a Human, they where at least worthy of him speaking to them. There was only one thing he hated worse Humans. Elves.

Raey looked up when the guy spoke to her. She recognized him, but she could not put a name to the face. She smiled gently and set her sketch pad off to the side. "Hi." Raey gazed at him for another minute; he looked familiar, but who was he? She finally gave up and shook her head. "You seem familiar somehow."

"Does the name Demetri Emery ring a bell?" Demetri asked, sitting down in the grass next to her. "I'm known for being the genius of the local high-school...Not that I enjoy the title, but oh well." The Vampire stared at the shape shifter curiously, part of him wondered if she knew who she was. "You are Raey, right?" He asked.

"Actually your name DOES ring a bell." she smiled. and nodded. "I am Raey. Raey Vyne." She stared down at him curiously. "So what brings you here? A graveyard is a curious place to run into someone."

"I know many people who are now currently resting beneath the upturn soil of this graveyard. You point out a tombstone, and I know the person who occupied it. Not something I ever wanted to happen, I would rather have them all living of course." Demetri said looking down at the tombstone she was sitting by.

Raey looked down. "I see." She looked over at Arrin's tombstone. "How about this one?" She nodded towards the grave. Raey was curious if Demetri had ever met her guardian while she was alive. It would explain why he was so familiar.

"Arrin Gallaway, Was she close to you?" Demetri asked. It seemed as if he was, seeing how she was sitting next to her grave with flowers, but hey nothing wrong with double checking.

Raey nodded. "Arrin was my guardian. She found me on the street, after my parents abandoned me when I was seven." She looked downwards sadly. "She's the only person I really trusted, seeing how she was the only person I had." The wind gently blew across the graveyard, and dropped just a couple degree's colder.

"I see. I'm sorry she passed away." Demetri said, "I knew her somewhat..but not much I was quite young when I first met her, maybe around seven." He explained, looking at her grave.

Raey nodded. "I took her passing rough , seeing how no one knew what caused her death. But... it taught me something. that I have to embrace each day and treat it as my last." She smiled and then looked at him. Raey bit her lip and picked her sketch pad up. "Would you mind if I sketched you? You... intrigue me." A small smile graced her lips. "And the lighting is perfect..."

"Very rarely do people understand that concept." Demetri said, Draw him? No one asked him that before. "Um..Sure, Why not." It wasn't the weirdest request possible but it wasn't the most common either.

"Thank you." She smiled. Raey picked up her pencil. She turned to face him and scanned him quickly, then looked down at her sketch pad. Raey began to draw. She occasionally looked up, studying him closely. As she drew, the wind died down, as if it didn't want to disturb her. Or that she didn't want it to disturb her. Raey finished the body first, saving the face for last. She looked up and studied his face for a few minutes, she reached out and gently moved his head a little to the right, so that the light hit him just right. She smiled and went back to drawing. When she finished his face, she quickly drew in the sun setting behind him, even though it wasn't really. "Done." Raey turned the sketch pad so that he could see. "What do you think?"

"Amazing, you're quite an artist. How long have you been drawing, Raey?" Demetri asked smiling, "I'm not all that great at drawing...But I do love art, and its many forms." He smiled and studied the picture once more.

Raey lightly blushed. "Thank you... I've been drawing for as long as I could remember really." she looked down at the picture, or more like the sketch pad. There weren't many pages left in thesketch pad, probably about ten. Raey flipped to the front and showed him the first page, which had a message. "Follow your dreams Raey, you have a gift, and someday that girt will take you places you never could imagine. Love, Arrin." Under the message was a sketch of a middle aged woman, Arrin. "She gave me this the day I graduated, two days before she passed." Raey smiled gently at him.
