Epic Era [U/C Private]

[TitaniumHeartz]

Ren gasped and gripped her wand tighter, intensifying the sensation.

The woman walked up to the counter and smiled. "Are you ready to check out?"

Saffie blinked and bit her lip. "Kind of.."

[Kittens1722]

Yukiko blinked and spoke up. "Um...Zaine, I think that was your name," He said pointing at Minax and Ren.

Grey looked at the woman. "Do you know where the under garments," he paused wondering if he was making up a word and continued, "are?".

[TitaniumHeartz]

"Mina, can you take care of that please?" Zaine sighed.

Mina nodded and flicked her hands a few times before stepping over to the fight. She placed a palm on both of their foreheads, immediatly ending their powers for the time being.

The woman laughed and pointed to the corner. "Ill go ahead and ring up the clothes." she said, taking the dresses from Grey.

Saffie huffed and got down from the counter.

[Kittens1722]

"Not fair," Minax got up, trying to summon her power again. "That's not fair..."

"We are from a far off land, a place where time doesn't pass and everybody gets along, and the word 'war' isn't known," Yukio explained. "We know that we are from the 'future' as you say it, because they haven't known my family name, or Yukiko's either."

"Okay, thanks," Grey said. "Saffie, you go ahead, I'll pay these and I'll join you," He looked at Saffie.

[TitaniumHeartz]

Saffie nodded and snatched the dress she wanted and ran off towards the dressing room, grabbing what she needed on the way. She locked the door and attempted to get dress. The under clothes were easy, it was just the tying of the dress that cost her some time.

Mina shrugged. "Zaine told me to." she accused.

Ren huffed and rubbed her shoulder, still feeling a bit of a tingle.

Zaine nodded. "Well.. our time is difficult to explain. We still have a King and knights and what not, but we also have very updated technology."

"Do you have flying boats?" Ren asked quickly.

Zaine laughed. "No, no we dont. That's just silly."

[Kittens1722]

Minax sat down on the ground with her arms crossed.

Yukio blinked. "That doesn't help then, so we'll fill you in on yourselves. Minax is obviously a council member, who works under the princess. And Zaine, your a gaurd, so basically a type of a knight I guess. We haven't been able to get home so I doubt you guys would, but maybe you guys will considering you guy have powers."

Grey sighed.

[TitaniumHeartz]

Zaine laughed and scratched his head. "Well, you see.. everyone basically has a power except for me." He said in a casual manner.

Mina blinked and corrected. "Yuri doesnt have one either, Zaine."

Ren began to think of the strangers' situation. She looked up at Yukio and Yukiko. "How long have you been here?" she asked them, curiousity spilling from her lips.

Kimchii wandered the halls and stumbled upon Minax's door. She knocked twice but invited herself in. As she was about to say, "Gururu has run off again." she noticed the two strangers in her friend's room. She hardly got finished with the word 'run' before stopping.

Saffie ran out with a frustrated expression. "Tie this.." she whined, holding up two ends of a string that obviously held the dress together..

[Kittens1722]

"Already been about 5 years or so," Yukio answered.

"Kimchii!" Minax ran and grabbed Kimchii by the arm and brought her to her bed, putting her next to Zaine. "You know Ren already, so the dude with orange-ish hair is Yukio and the gray is Yukiko," Minax introduced.

Grey tied the strings together in a bow. He took out his wallet, checking the money and sighed. "Well, how much is the things?"

[TitaniumHeartz]

The lady smiled, as if she was getting quite a bit of money. "Ten dollars."

Saffie's pink got a bit ruddy as the chill of the nearly winter air blew through a cracked window. Luckily, her dress was long-sleeved, but still, her legs were bare.

Kimchii blinked at Minax, not at all surprised by her spontaneous welcome. "Hello there, Yukio and Yukiko." she muttered. She didnt even bother to ask why they were there, she already knew. "Minax.." she groaned. "Gururu's going to eat someone if we dont hurry up."

Ren thought for a moment. "The Black Circlet appeared over Palestralle half a decade ago, and it just got darker the other day. Do you think, maybe, the growth of the Black Circlet has something to do with your appearance? "

[Kittens1722]

"Hello Princess," Yukio and Yukiko greeted together.

"We don't even know," Yukio replied to Ren.

"Why do I have to help Gururu? Don't you have Niet with you?" Minax whined.

"Hm, do you have anything to put on Saffie's legs?" Grey asked.

[TitaniumHeartz]

Kimchii sighed at the word Princess. "Please, call me Kimchii. Before the other day.. I was just Kimi." She looked back at Minax. "Niet is busy, you know that..."

Ren frowned. "It's worth investigating, isnt it?"

The woman nodded. "Of course." she said, pulling out a pair of thick panty hose. "They're free with every childs' purchase." she told Grey.

Saffie rubbed her ruddy cheeks with her tiny hands. After she managed to warm them, she wrapped her arms around Grey's leg.

The woman smiled. "Is she your... sibling? Cousin?.. What?"

[Kittens1722]

"Actually, we're not related," Grey explained with a pat on Saffie's head.

Yukio shrugged. "You can ask them, as far as I know, me and Yukiko might as well stay here."

"Fine, I'll help," Minax said with a sigh.

[TitaniumHeartz]

Ren blinked. "Don't you want to go home? And i shouldnt be the one asking.. i belong here, remember?"

The lady put on a fake smile. "Oh." she said, looking down at Saffie. "Have a nice day." she said, handing Grey the bag of clothes.

Kimchii smirked. "Good. She should be terrorizing the kitchen by now."

Zaine glanced at Minax. "You were going to eat, anyway, were you not?"

[Kittens1722]

Yukio and Yukiko shrugged. "It's better here than at home, we already have friends here."

Grey quickly paid and took the bag of clothes, leading Saffie out. "Hungry?" He asked.

"But the problem is I still don't have my power back," Minax said.

[TitaniumHeartz]

Ren frowned. "But dont you have friends and families back where you came from?"

Kimchii shrugged. "Gururu doesnt know that." she smirked, standing up and walking towards the door. "You coming?"

Saffie nodded and ran to Grey, clinging to his leg, making him walk with her attached to his limb.
