Demetri sat peacful on a lower branch of a tree in the front lawn. He loved to sit in trees, he was wearing his usual outfit. His black hat with the two white stripes, his black jacket that was kind of cape like that reached to his thighs, black pants, and dress shoes jsut his size. He looked around at the few faces around as his blue eyes danced around the people. All so different and unique. He had always been one of those people to lok at someone and wonder who they were.
He was a bit tired, it was around five o clock right now. Classes were over and it was too early to go to bed without waking up to early. Demetri wasn't new to this school.He had been going here since he was a level 1. He enjoys his time here and never wants to leave. Wishing he could live his short life here. He was sitting in the tree with his left leg stretched apon the tree branch as his right hung off....

If it were not for said leg hanging down, Umi probably wouldn't have even noticed the boy in the tree. But at 6 feet tall, even a small pixie leg hanging from the lower branch of a tree is nearly enough to touch your head. And so it was that as Umi walked under the canopy of the tree with his hands in his pockets, and raised his head slightly to look for the source of the chirping he could hear, he nearly ran straight into Demetri's foot. He stopped abruptly, nearly jumping out of his skin with a sharp intake of breath. He took a step or so backward to get a better look at what was in the tree.
A pixie? Wonderful! he thought.
A smile came to his face as he stared up at the boy.
"Hello up there, you startled me!" he said, loudly enough to be heard, but still quieter than the voice of most. He offered a small wave with this greeting. He tried to remember the boy's name, but drew a blank for the time being. They had attended school together for a couple years now, but he had never really met the boy before, though he recognized him. And he was sure he knew his name, if he could only remember it.

Demetri looked down as he heard a vice .He looked to see a person he knew, well kind of. He had seen him a few times over the years. Demetri wasn't very good with name."Oh hello... sorry to have done that I didn't mean to.." He said with a smile. Demetri had a light voice, but it wasn't high pitched or anything, but it was like a childs voice kind of. It was hard to explain.
Demetri looked to him as he tried to think of this very tall guy's name. He had turned on the branch s o both of his legs were hanging off the edge as he looked to the tall boy in front of him. "I'm sorry but I have forgotten your name.." Demetri said with a small laugh...

Umi pushed the brim of his hat up slightly so he could see the boy better before returning his hand to his jacket pocket.
"It is all right, I should pay more attention to where I am walking, is all," he said amiably. He briefly considered joining the boy in the tree, because it looked like good fun, but he doubted he could get up. He was terrible at climbing. So instead he craned his neck some more.
"Do not worry about it, I am afraid I have forgotten your name as well," Umi said with a breath that sounded more like a nervous 'heh' than an actual laugh. "I am Umitaheno Kai, but you can call me Umi if you wish." He raised a hand to about his chest level. "I would shake your hand, but..." he said with a sly smile.

"Well.. you are really tall.. I didn't think anyone could hit my foot, I guess I was wrong.. "Demetri said with a smile as he tried not to offend this guy. He looked at this guy over a bit more, paying attetion to what he was wearing. He had always been someone who would look at details like that. "It's nice to meet you... My name is Demetri Montroli... " Demetri said with a smile."Since you told me your nickname I'll tell you mine.. it's Demi..." Demetri added as he was still smiling. He felt awkward in this tree at the moment. He felt as if it was different for Umi to have to look up at him becuase he was probably use to looking down. But if he came out of the tree, he was half of this guys height at least...He looked around 6 foot....

"It would not have mattered anyway," Umi said, shrugging, "I am used to hitting my head by now. The hat and the hair help anyway." He smacked the top of his head lightly for a visual, and the hat caved a little. "It makes me look taller than I am, too," he said as he readjusted his hat, puffing it out again.
"Demetri," he repeated, giving himself time to think. "Comes from the Greek goddess Demeter. Goddess of harvest; a fitting name for a pixie, so in tune with nature they are." He gave a warm smile at this thought. Pixies were such a wonderful people; he often wished he had been born one instead of just a cursed human. "I will be sure to remember the name this time, Demi."

"It's ok.... I don't care about heights anymore.. They don't bother me." Demetri said with a smirk."I had a human tell me once that I was the size of a human preschooler once.." Demetri added. He listened to Umi as he spoke. He was very knowledgable, what a great trait to have. Demetri was pretty smart as well but not so much in memories things like that.
"Why thank you... I didn't choice my name but I love it all the same..." Demetri said with a smile. He was glad that he had this name that was given to him by his parents. He loved his name so much, a lot of people said it was unique and fit him perfectly like your favorite pair of shoes or something. "Yes and I yours..." He said politly as he always did. He was always a polite person until he was angry. Even then he still had a polite under tone...

Umi frowned slightly at the preschooler comment. To him, it sounded like a not-very-nice thing to say to someone. But he supposed that it could have been said in jest, so he refrained from commenting on that fact. "I suppose it would depend on the preschooler," he joked.
Not knowing what to say after this, he looked back down again, rubbing his neck lightly. He wasn't much of a conversationalist, that was for sure. And his neck was a little sore. He took a few paces backward again so he wouldn't have to crane his neck so much, and looked up again.
"So, what are you doing up in a tree anyway?" he asked, more out of a desire to make conversation than to sate his curiosity.

"It's ok... it didn't bother me that much... comments about my height don't bother me anymore...especially since I can fly.." Demetri said with a small laugh as he looked at him. He watched him rub his neck."Does your neck hurt from looking up or something?" Demetri asked curiously as he watched him. "Why am I up here...?" Demetri said as he looked around the tree."I don't know I like to sit in trees..." He smiled....
(sorry bad post... XD... kind of short...)

Short isn't always bad :3
Umi smiled at the comment. Apparently his frown had given away his thoughts on the matter anyway; the boy sure was observant. "Well that is a good way to think about it. I might be taller than you are, but I am also stuck down here where my height means nothing."
He rubbed his neck again as a reflex when it was mentioned and smiled shyly. "Yes, it is a little tender. I am not used to looking up, after all. And I have never been in a tree, but it looks like it is fun." He briefly considered climbing up himself, but he really didn't want to make a fool of himself, or ruin his clothes.

"Yes I've always found it helpful...." Demetri said with a smile. He looked to the boy as he rubbed his neck."You are right... you do have to look down a lot.. It's kind of odd to look down to be honest..." Demetri said as he pushed off the brand as he floated down not fluttering but gliding down slowly. He landed softly on the ground next to Umi."You ar alot taller from here..." Demetri said with a laugh as he around half of the other's height.
"Have you always been taller then everyone..." Demetri asked curiously as he looked up to him as he had his fingers interlocked as his hands were in front of him. He was actualyl decently tall for a pixie. But there were few other like him around so he stuck out a lot. Hallway traveling in the school was very easy either...

"And you are a lot shorter!" Umi said, also laughing. He resisted the urge to pat the boy on the head. He may be cute; but he was still a guy, and a guy Umi's age at that. It would be pretty insulting, he thought, to do such a thing.
"Yes, actually, I have been taller than most people for my whole life," he informed him. "You see, I am a Lycan, and we tend to be pretty tall. A little weak most of the time, but tall nonetheless. Kind of like a twig," he said with a laugh.
It was true; growing up he had always been taller than his older brother. Taller, but not bigger. The height difference meant little when his brother could easily bench press him, at least when they were younger. But after Umi started learning martial arts, it had been a little more even. The first day he had beaten his brother in a scuffle still burned brightly in his mind.

"What did I look taller in the tree...?" Demetri said with a smile as he looked up at him."I'm 3 feet tall... right around there..." Demetri said with a small laugh. "IT must be different to be tall.. it's fun to wonder what it is like.. I bet you wonder what it would be lke to be short huh?" Demetri had always wondered things and always been curious about things. It was his mischivious side to him that always wondered about things....

"If not taller, definitely higher."
He looked down at the boy now, and scratched his nose thoughtfully.
"Now you have to look up," he observed. "We should sit or something to even things out."
He walked over to the trunk of the tree and sat with his back to the trunk and his knees tucked to his chest. He gave a leisurely sort of sigh before going on to answer Demi's question. "I do often wonder what being short would be like. I would imagine there would be far less hitting my head on things, which is always a plus, regardless of how used to it I am by now."

Demetri listened to him as he smiled."Higher you say well I was in a tree.. so of course.." Demetri smirked as he looked to him. He watched him sit, even while sitin he was stil ltaller then him. "Wow you are the first person to still be taller then me while sitting.." Demetri laughed a bit. He sat were he was as he was in front of him. He sat cross legged.
"Well one thing about being short is less people see you... and you can't reach high places, firtunatly I Can fly so I'm lucky.." Demetri said with a smirk as he had his arms behind him supporting him as he was slouched back a bit...
