Leeto walked cautiously through the forest, exploring the beautiful scenic area. The sun shone through the trees and she thought to herself that this was perhaps the most peaceful place she had ever been. In her hand was a case for her violin- she was hoping to find somewhere to practice. She had lessons that night, her parents had reminded her that morning before leaving the house. It was late afternoon now, and she decided it was best to do a warm-up in privacy. She found a small clearing and sat on a rock, opening the case before her. A small smile crossed her face as she picked up the intrument, playing the melody to 'Golden brown' by the stranglers, humming along as she went...

Bones stood on the branch of a tree near where Leeto was practicing, he had been on a walk nearby and upon hearing the music came to investigate. Bones decided not to interrupt the melody and sat down on the branch enjoying the music

As Leeto played she slowly felt herself become aware of another presence in the area. The Key hanging on her neck was warm at her skin, and growing warmer as her curiosity peaked. She finally stopped playing as the song ended and sat still, listening. "Who's there?" She asked aloud, letting her voice taking the tone that demanded truth...

Bones appeared out of Leeto's shadow ," hello" he then said from directly behind her

Leeto jumped and spun around, "Holy... where did you come from?" She asked, her tone still resonating. Her eyes scanned him quickly, looking at him as if the answers to her questions was written on his forehead.

Leeto sighed and kept scanning him, "That's a cool power... You look surprised... well what do you expect, you popped out of nowhere! Even nowadays when lots of people have powers, People can still be caught off guard." She crossed her arms, "What were you doing in the trees?" She asked him.

Leeto shifted her weight, ". . .okay. I suppose that's alright." She sighed and sat back down on the rock, "I have practice tonight... Am I any good?" She wondered curiously.

Leeto smiled broadly, "thank you!" She replied, "I've been practicing for ages... I've tried about every instrument under the sun, but unless it has strings, i'm no good." She shrugged. "What kind of music are you into?" She asked him.

Bones shrugged " I don't really listen to much music so really i like any kind i hear" Bones then said

Leeto looked at him strangely, "Why not? If you like music what is keeping you from listening?" She tilted her head to the side and gave him a perplexed look.

Bones smiled," Between Faith and my services as a butler i find i have little down time for most other things" He then said

Leeto didn't understand him well, "You don't seem like a religious kinda man," She commented, "And... well okay you do look like a butler... no offense" She added, wondering why she apologized for him being 'butler-like'.

Leeto chuckled, "Oh.. sorry bout that." She felt embarrassed about making such a mistake. She took her mind off of it and looked up at the trees for a minute, "Anyway... It's really peaceful here isn't it? I can see why you take walks here, it must be great time to think..."

Leeto gave a small smile, "This is my first time here surprisingly. I simply wanted some peace to practice my violin... Well I suppose you ruined that, " She joked, "But i'll forgive you" She smiled again. "What other powers do you have?" She asked randomly, curious if he had some other cool power to show her.

"ummm besides the ability to teleport through shadow, well im not sure if this counts as a power but ill show you anyways" Bones said as his body flickered out of existence and he was merely a skeleton

Leeto suddenly froze, her eyes wide. "That's.... k-kinda creepy" She said, wondering how his bones stayed together, how he could move, and well, If he could possible talk without a tongue or lips... "Why don't you just fall apart like that?" She wondered... "And what use is that kind of power?" She was distantly whispering by now out of fear. It was kind of an unnatural thing to witness, and she was too used to her mundane life to actually see peoples powers for the supernatural forces they were. Sometimes they just seemed too casual. His however, scared her. It was actually terrifying how casual it was. At the back of her mind however, she thought it was, kinda cool.

" my body can stay like this because of a special energy that binds the bones together , and this power has many uses , for one i cannot be killed while like this short of being utterly disintegrated and should my human form come into contact to any of the more lethal substances on this earth i can change to this one and then back to cure myself " Bone said

Leeto shuddered, "Well... I, I guess that's kind of useful..." She found herself taking a step backwards. "Oh.. um where are my manners... My powers are to make people tell the truth, and I can open and lock anything with a lock without even touching them" She didn't sound encouraged, as she knew her powers weren't exactly awe-inspiring..

Leeto blinked, "Um... Not... not that much, it's ok.." She cursed herself inwardly for sounding so cowardly.

Leeto sighed inwardly, "Uh yeah... thanks" She gave a small smile of apology for being afraid. It must be hard, she realized, for him to show people that ability. they must freak out a lot... "I'm sorry..." She added, hating to add to his list of people afraid of that...

" why are you sorry?" Bones said confused, he had lived here for eighty years he wasn't bothered much by peoples reaction to him by now

Leeto shrugged, feeling sort of self-concious now, "Well I mean... You must be kinda hard to have that ability... People must freak out a lot around you. I'm just sorry to be one of them." She said, looking away as she packed up her violin in it's case...

" I may not look it but I'm actually eighty years old , I've lived here that entire time and until a year ago i couldn't even be human at all , peoples reactions don't worry me in the slightest so please don't worry yourself over it " Bones said trying to be comforting
