<<< Think I'll do some puppeting for Elizar >>>
Aron came up to Delfina's door, wondering if she would even feel like company today. He knocked in what he hoped would be regarded as a respectful way.

Hearing the knock on her door, Delfina looked up. She still felt under the weather, but not as bad as before. "Come in," she called out.

(((Sorry computer conked out.)))
"I don't know," Phoenix said. "He said that his friend called him and I went after him and ran into 'Ebony'. She seemed just so crewl and she tried to spike me."

Aron opened the door as narrowly as possible and slid through, bearing a tray with two insulated cups. "That cold bug still eating you?"
Lynda received a call from Ondine, and lifted her front to tell the others. "Phoenix had some spasms, so they couldn't go out of town today as they planned. They're on their way back."
Kathleen went out to fetch some herbs from a storage depot in the tribe's other holdings, and sighted the convoy coming in. She dipped her wings as she passed overhead.

Ebony briefly looked up and saw Kathleen pass overhead, as she had heard the SkyRaider first before seeing her, then turned back to Phoenix.
"I only spiked you once," she replied, "but I didn't go any further. I only meant to teach you some respect. But there's something strange about this 'Ebony', besides her behavior in the dream. What did she looked like? Can you describe her to me?"
~~~~~
Delfina sat up and leaned against the backboard as she watched Aron enter her room, "Yeah, it is... unfortunately..."
~~~~~
Sapphire glanced up at hearing the name Phoenix. That Trans Am she saw last night must've been her. But wasn't Phoenix a Grayston as well? She recalled being nearly wrecked by a racer hired by Grayston to worm his way into the circuit. She was in the hospital for a few weeks because of that.
What was his granddaughter doing here?

"She looked like she could be your twin," Phoenix said. "Right down to the spikes and scars you have, And there was this coldness to her eyes."

"She would've been my doppleganger if she was my twin," said Ebony, "But why did her eyes look so cold? What did they look like?"

"She just seemed so angry and it felt like she really wanted to hurt," Phoenix said. "And those eyes sent chills through my frame. Almost felt like like I was looking in a mirror..."

"Sure, I can get angry with you, but I do apologize, and I never want to hurt you," said Ebony, "The way you describe her doesn't sound right to me. Why did her eyes feel like you were looking into a mirror?"

"They seemed a lot like mine for some reason," Phoenix said. "I thought that it was mine reflected on hers."

"I got some tea for you." Aron offered one of the cups. "Jasmine. The cafe lady swears by it."
Shayla, Seth and Robin perked up as the scents of the approaching cars reached them on the wind. Saul had taken his boss back out the other night, but might be back in a few days with Buck to get to know the humans better. Brett was on duty right now, but would be back on the weekend.
Lynda glanced over towards her daughter. "You've got that something-on-your-mind look again, just like your father's."

"I don't know how eyes can reflect off of each other. Never heard of that before. Nix, look at my eyes and tell me what color they are," said Ebony, "and the color of your dream Ebony's eyes."
~~~~~
Delfina reached out and carefully took a steaming cup of Jasmine tea. She sipped it delicately, not wanting to burn her tongue. "It tastes good. Thanks, Aron."
~~~~~
"Oh, just thinking," replied Sapphire.

Phoenix turned and looked into the Viper's eye. "Your eyes are green. Emerald green," she said. "The one in my dreams had pale blue ones."

"Your eyes don't reflect off of mine, do they?" asked Ebony, "If they don't, than this Ebony in your dream would've been a fake. A doppleganger."

"They don't reflect," Phoenix said shaking her front. "But a doppleganger is a very powerful illusion. I've never been able to cast it and I never seen Grayston do it." The familiar mountain as starting to come into view.
