((Well, if our plan's to have something happen at the theatre, I'm going to skip ahead to that. Maybe the faeries could try and kdinap Roni during the performance, and Ix tries to save her, and he gets kidnapped as well, or something *isonlybrainstorming*))

Cirxel paced back and forth behind the curtain, watching as the set was arranged in place. He fixed the ruuf on his collar, watching as the other actors received last minute make-up or costume alterations. Eventually he was called backstage by the director. He made his way over, tail swinging. The other actors were assembling as well for the preshow peptalk. Outside the curtain people were already starting to arrive.
"Now remember everyone, you've got some tough lines, but you've all go tthem down. Oh, and Cirxel, Torrenus, watch that sword fight. Don't poke anyone's eye out." Grins flitted through the crowd and the finals words of advice were given.
Cirxel took a moment to peek through the cutain as he made his way to his corner offstage till his scene. He didn't catch sight of the girl he had met yesterday, but he wasn't totally expecting her to show up. It'd be nice, though. i havn't had someone to look forward to coming in a while, he thought as he took a seat on the side of the stage, out of the way of the stagecrew and actors rushing about.

((sounds good to me XD))
Roni looked up at the theater, ticket in hand. Maybe she should leave... but that would be really rude, so she gave the ticket to the person behind the counter, he tore it and gave her the stub and she walked inside. She was wearing a simple lavender skirt and beige blouse, hoop earrings, her hair curled and with a purple headband. It was a semi-formal wear theatre, she knew, and this was good, she was wearing.
She sat down in her seat, which was a really good one in the box seats, so she could clearly see the stage and not anyone's head. She leaned on the railing, waiting anxiously, her stomach in knots. Why was she so nervous?

The play proceeded well enough through the first few scenes, with Cirxel sitting on the side. Eventually though it came time for his appearance, and he got up, fixing his cotsume as the crew in charge os his appearance bad last minute adjustments.
Ix sighed, waiting ofr his cue before walking onto the stage with the rest of the actors for this scene, picking up on the part and slipping into charater, temporarily oblivious to his surroundings besides what was happening on the stage.

Roni was captivated by the story, and grinned when she saw Cirxel finally come out, but she still couldn't shake the uneasiness that something was going go to wrong, that somebody was going to do something bad. It wasn't even her magick that told her, it was more of a gut feeling. Lucy told her many times to always trust a gut instinct, because even non-magickal people had them -- Ara had vouched for that -- so a magickal person would feel it even stronger.

((The lights go out... the doors are mysteriously locked.... a wicked laughter erupts and echoes throughout the theater. The dark faeries take Cirxel and Roni to their "lair".))

Cirxel smirked, as called for by the part, drawing his sword as he did so. His false opponent did the same, and the faces around them reacted as they had through rehersal and rehersal. And on cue Ix lunged at the other actor, and their fight began. They had done the rutine so many times that it looked almost real, besides the fact that neither were trained in the way of swords.
But as the went for the final clash, the lights flickered out. Cirxel stumbled, hearing the curious murmer going through the crowd. The only light came from the pit below, but the light was dim in the large theater.
Ix stood ready, glancing at the other actors on stageas they all stood poised, waiting for the lights to come back on.

((I can just picture one of those anime sweat-drops going down Roni's face right now XDD))
Roni stood up instinctively, ignoring the complaints of the people behind her. A loud and wicked cackle bellowed throughout the theater, a laugh that made a shiver run down her spine and fear mash into her bones.
Something brushed past her and she fell backwards and over the railing. She let out a shriek and tried to open her wings, but something seemed to hold them shut. A soft, creepy little melody crept into her ears, but what made it really scary was that it was in her language.
The Ahslan language.
She pummeled toward the ground, eyes wide. But she hardly noticed she was falling anymore. All she knew was the melody in her dead language whispering to her.
((Lol, as if Shoyrus have ears XDDDD))

Cirxel heard the shreik, and jumped, holding the prop in front of him like ti were an actual sword. His eyes tried to peirce the darkness, and in the dim light from the pit he caught a glimpse of however was falling. He rushed to the edge of the stage, mouth gaping in astonishment.
That isn't that shoyru from yesterday, it it? it's not Roni? he thought these hurridly, while some of the muscians had caught sight of her as well. Ix sped for the stairs leading off stage, and to the spot where she would be falling too. A small group was standing there, probably with his same intentions of trying to catch her.
Now that he was here, he ehard the singing chant, but it was nonsense to him, other than bringing back stories of magic and sorcery.

Roni fell into somebody's arms, but she hardly noticed it. She managed to mutter a thank you to whoever it was, but she tried to grasp that melody that none of the people around her seemed to hear (besides Cirx ^^).
It was familiar, not just by the language but by the fact that it was a song she had definitely heard before.
((Let's say only Cirx and Roni can hear the song.))

((gotcha ^^))
Cirxel ran forward whe the girl was caught, and up close was able to affirm his suspitions. It was in fact the girl form yestarday. He grabbed her shoulder, looking around for whatever had caused her fall. but in the darkness he couldn't see anything that high.
"Miss Ronyshia, was it, are you all right?" He asked, keeping the drip on her shoulder as the man who caught her lowered her to the ground, muttering with the rest fo the crowd.

Hearing her name snapped her back to reality. She looked over and, seeing Cirxel smiled. "I'm fine," she said. "I'm glad you're okay."
The dark faeries snuck around in the shadows of the dark, far back, grinning at their prize. "Princess Ronyshia," one muttered under his breath, licking his lips, "we have found you at last."

"Good, what happened?" he asked, glancing down at her before once more trying to see through the darkness. He was still holding the sword loosly inhis hand, and he sheathed it quickly, not wanting it in the way.

"I don't know," she said truthfully. "But might we step away from the crowd so I can talk to you? Privately?" She winced at the subtle yet strained urgency she heard in her voice.
