Welcome to Gaia! ::

Mr. Mysterious stood in the temple area with Reign standing next to him. A gloved hand rested on her shoulder for a moment as he seemed to bend closer to her talking quietly. Before anyone else got close he straightened up, shadowed face directed at the other comers.

After they had found a clue to find Nara the man had sent a call to Reign, the oldest scroll child other than Nara. From there he had continued to send messages to all the scroll children who had developed abilites. They would be useful in the upcoming trial.

Papina was nearly to the library when her phone began to ring. She rolled her eyes, groaning as she pulled out the phone to see who it was, figuring that her mom changed her mind and wanted her back home, right now, despite the fact that she had her cloak and the bow she started praticing with. She was surprised when the number didn't register as Mom, and flipped it open to answer. "Hello?" She started nervously, then blinked as the message came through. Good thing they had her cell number and that she was nearly to the library. Mom would flip if they had called home, and she'd have more trouble getting out of the house. She closed the phone, ending the call, and slipped it into a pocket before turning to go to the temple area. She broke first into a trot, then a run as she saw Reign. "Reign!" She said happily, pulling the hood of her cloak back as she came close. She was always glad to see the furry scroll child. The leaves on her head danced with joy.

Papina waved back before coming to a stop right in front of Reign. She grinned broadly at her furry friend as she did a quick twirl of joy. "Reign! I grew!" She tried to sit still long enough for Reign to take in the details, but she really wanted to dance around for sheer joy of being outdoors once more. The was a brief thought that perhaps she should leave her phone here, but she could always ask what to do about the thirty minute problem later.

Nara's partner closed his cell phone with a snap. It was a small, black, sleek thing that looked nothing like the other cell phones available on the market. For anyone trying to take a look, black fabric completely covered his body, not even letting them get a peek at his skin tone.

Turning back to the girls, the man nodded. Translation: Isdra's coming. It had been so long since he had been around someone who understood what he was saying without the words.

Papina blinked at Nara's partner before slowly nodding in return, figuring it was the best thing to do. After all, she had gotten a call, and since Isdra was the only other one close to their age... She turned to blink at Reign, and shrugged. "After Isdra gets here?" She guessed out loud. She turned towards the only other one there to confirm that.

Reign grinned as she got more daggers. She made sure her set was in their cases and snugly in there before picking up one of the daggers. It was rather interesting looking. This one had a small + on the button. Curious, the girl pushed the button, but didn't see anything happen.

"What's it do?" She asked the man.

"Sweet!" was Papina's reaction to the bow. She picked it up in one hand and shifted it back and forth, trying to decide which hand to hold it in. She finally settled on gripping it in her left hand and picked up the quiver of arrows in her other hand, going so far as to tuck the bow under one arm and gently take out an arrow, looking it over closely. "Coooooll..." She settled the quiver behind her back so she could reach the arrows easily, and held the bow in both hands, cooing over how cool it was, lost to all else as she tried to figure out what secrets it held.

((Black Talons?

Tara's Edit: Their banned from use. You can't buy them or sell them, but you can make them and own them and even shoot them... Look it up online, it's really cool. One of my juniors did a science project over why they were banned. ))
