Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Really? Wow, your alias is cool! From what I heard, not very many aliases were normal names!" She giggled at the end of her sentence, and looked out the window. "OOH! LOOK!" She pointed at a motorcycle they passed. "Isn't that one cool?"

Christine stared at the motorcycle but didn't say anything. "A...alias...?" She asked, looking over the violin case at Ori. "I didn't know I had to have an alias." She was slightly angered that no one had alerted her of this sooner.
Plague lowered her book to her lap and smiled at Christine. "That's alright," she assured the younger girl. "I made the same mistake and I already knew about the whole needing an alias thing. Just choose a name that suits you. I'm Plague by the way."

((I'm sorry I'm so late on this!! gonk I kept getting distracted with little things... redface Here's my part))

Molly climbed in the sleek black limo and took a seat next to a girl with a labcoat on. She didn't say anything, merely paying attention to her iPod. She removed the slippers she almost never wore and pulled out another book seemingly from nowhere. It was another of her favorites. It set a slightly sad mood, however, so Molly changed the song to one on her "sad songs" playlist she had created. Not paying any mind to the others in the limo with her, Molly began to sing while she read.

Don't tell me
You're done for
I don't need to hear
You're done for
You can tell me what you are running from
I need you
More than you need you

Well I can see you're really, really running
Can I ask you, where you gonna run to?
And you think you're really, really funny
Well I don't think you're funny as you do
We all feel like we're breaking sometime
But I won't give you up tonight

Stay awake
Stay awake, survive
I’ve got nineteen stars that I
Gave your name tonight
I wanna scream
Wanna scream your name
Starlight, starbright can save
You’re my wish tonight

Don’t tell me
It doesn’t matter
I’ll tell you
What matters
Bare feet in the summer
Open windows at night

You think that no one needs you
You have nothing to see through
Well I need you
Don’t I count?
Let’s fight

Show me anger
Fierce fists, clutching onto air
Show me anything
Just show me you care

Stay awake
Stay awake, survive
I’ve got nineteen stars that I
Gave your name tonight
I wanna scream
Wanna scream your name
Starlight, starbright can save
You’re my wish tonight

No one can catch me
The way that you catch me
The way that you keep me, when I’m out of time
What if I need you?
When I can’t see you?
And I’m running out of life
No one can catch me
The way that you catch me
The way that you keep me, when I’m out of time
What if I need you?
When I can’t see you?
And I’m running out of life

Please…

Stay awake
Stay awake, survive
I’ve got nineteen stars that I
Gave your name tonight
And I wanna scream
Wanna scream your name
Starlight, starbright can save
You’re my wish
You’re my wish, my wish
You’re my wish
Tonight


Molly looked up from her book to change songs on her iPod when she noticed everyone staring at her.

"Uh....why's everyone looking at me?" she asked, eyes wandering. She shifted nervously in her seat.
OOC: It would be really cool if Christine brought out her violin to accompany Molly.

((I was thinking about that, but I don't think she's up to it.))

Christine smiled at the singer, tapping her foot on the seat to the rhythm of the song. "That was very nice." She said. "That's why we're staring."
She pulled the violin a little closer to herself, still slightly uncomfortable around the other children. This impromptu seranade had given her and idea. "My name's Music...what's yours?"
OOC: This will be a kind of transition into Kunoichi21's part.

IC: After Plague introduced herself, a soft voice from beside her captured her attention. Turning away from the shy girl with the violin case, Plague looked to the other genius seated beside her. The girl was cocooned in her own world by a book and an ipod, to which Plague realized she was quietly singing along. Plague turned to the others in the limo noticing that the girl currently serenading the group had captured their attention as well.

Molly shut off her iPod and put a bookmark in her book before setting it on her left side, on the empty seat. She glanced at a shy looking girl holding a violin case, noting that this was the girl who had complimented her.

"My name is Ninja, but I prefer Kuno," she spoke softly. Molly saw the girl who introduced herself as Music pulling out her violin.

"So...um...how well do you play?"

"Well enough, I guess." Music replied, smiling bashfully.
She looked at the instrument with an expert eye. Customs had not been kind to it; one of the pegs had been dislodged and the E string was hanging limp against the fingerboard. Music held the violin carefully in her lap, deftly twisting the peg into it's proper position. Every now and again she would pluck the string, shake her head at the sounding note, and adjust the peg again.

"Are you planning to play us all a song?" Kuno asked the younger girl. She watched as Music adjusted her violin, shook her head when the note she sounded was off, and adjusted it again.

Kuno didn't think she'd get an answer until Music was finished tuning her instrument, so she turned the older girl beside her.

"So, what's your name? If I'm making you repeat yourself, I apologize. But I think it's safe to say that I wouldn't have heard you if you said anything earlier," she said sheepishly.

Music blushed bright pink. "I...I dunno." She glanced at the violin, pressing it close to her chest. "I wasn't really planning on playing for you and I don't know if....I don't think I could...I mean..." She trailed off into silence, clutching her instrument as if her life depended on it.
"I'm probably so out of tune anyway..." She finished, in a very small voice.
The older girl next to Kuno looked up from her book due to the question. "Oh, I'm Plague." Turning to the newly dubbed Music, Plague smiled brightly and said, "I'd love to hear a song if you wouldn't mind."

Music's hands began to shake again, tiny fingers trembling against the strings. The only person she's ever played for was Rachel. She shook her head vigorously at the two older girls, afraid she might stutter again if she spoke.

Kuno looked to Plague as an expression of slight confusion and a dash of shock danced across her features.

"Plague?" she repeated to herself. She then took in Plague's outfit, noticing the labcoat. 'Oh, she must like science and experimenting with bacteria.' Kuno thought. She was pulled from her thought processes as Music answered her question.

"Well, if you think you're out of tune, why not practice to check and see? And besides, I think it'd be lovely to hear you play. Please?" she tried persuading Music.
