Welcome to Gaia! ::

With the sudden rush of growth spurts in his home during the past few weeks, it called for a bit of down time in his life. With that he decided to leave Oak in charge of the kids at home and that gave Kyo a bit of time to spend with Riddik and make sure that he felt like he was part of the family. Thankfully Riddik was in the mood to eat before they left so that his hunger pains wouldn't torment Kyo during their little outing.

The two decided to visit one of the local parks which of course had a well known remarkable garden, in fact most of the part was covered in this garden and it was well equipped with shade. Which would do justice in the blasting summer heat. The two began their short little walk and they eventually found their way to the park and began their little adventure.
"Riddik, what do you think of this park?"

The polar bear looked up as he stood next to his guardian. A little glazed look over his eyes. "Umm... what’s a fower and what’s a park?" The boy quizzed.

"Umm a flower is a plant like that one over there.." the elf lifted his arm up and pointed over towards a bright red tulip, "and this is a park it's an outdoor recreation area." He nodded.

"Oh.." is all Riddik could say as he began to lead the troupe into the park, “This place looks like Oak… is he a park?”

“Umm…. No no he is not a park.” The elf laughed.

Riddik had let go of Oak's hand and began to adventure on his own, as the two of them eventually made their way into the center of the park, where in the center rested a fountain that towered high into the sky and dripped with crystal blue water constantly and around that rested a bed of flowers all around it. Kyo eventually found a bench and took a seat beneath a shady tree.
"Don't go too far!" The elf cried out as he watched his boy run off and circle the fountain. Every now and again creeping closer to the flowers and taking a big whiff.

"These F'owers are different. They don't smell edible!" Riddik scratched at his head confused, "where are the edible foods?"

"We will get a bite to eat when we get home so don't think about food...your not hungry" the elf sighed. This boy was eating through his wallet.

Kyocho's Elvin eyes quickly caught a glimpse of two familiar looking people. It was Evelyn and Nikiana, didn't they meet those two at the zoo? Kyocho could barely remember, since he had only meet the two once before.
"Hey Riddik lets go see your friend.."

Riddik looked up from his comfortable position and glared deeply at his guardian, he then looked away and followed Kyo's glance.
"I guess, but when are we going to eat?"

"Umm.. I don't know, but you don't need to eat all the time and you should probably think about something other than food." Kyo nodded as he helped lift the boy up onto his two feet and the two wandered on their way towards the two.

"HEY!" Kyo shouted and waved.

Riddik gave the girl a look over once or twice, he couldn't really keep count of what he was doing... especially at his age. He lifted up on of his fur covered hands or paws... who knew and gave the girl a wave.

"Hi! Why are you hiding?" Riddik quizzed.

Kyo patted his sons head and smiled.
"It's good to see you guys again!"

Riddik followed her gaze and stared at the same flowers.... well at least what he thought she was looking at. He pondering to himself over and over again, until he finally spoke out

"If they are pretty then why can I not eat it? Fish is pretty it is sparkly and I can eat thats." He nodded with a smile.

Kyo quickly glanced down, "no you may not eat those," Kyo sighed. "I swear that is all he ever thinks about is food," he placed a hand and moved it slowly across his forehead as he shook it back and forth, " lets think of something else ok?"

Riddik stared confused at Evelyn. If it was pretty why could he not eat it? Well it surely did not look delicious to him to tell you the truth, but he was starting to get confused on what he could eat... and what wasn't to be eaten.
"oh... you look at it? Why?"

Kyocho stopped shaking his head for a moment and stared at Niki, "Yeah I would say so, but it's a tad bit too healthy," he shrugged his shoulders and sighed. Riddik was burning out his supply of food at home and it was happening pretty quickly. He had just began to notice that the time spent at the grocery store had jumped.
