Welcome to Gaia! ::

Darius happily took to Lily resting her head on him. It felt really good to have her next to him. A perfect night together, that all started with two things, amniesia and a muddy gorge. Darius mentally chuckled at the irony of the set up, the unconventional couple and thier life togeather...

Darius chukled and spoke in an accent that seemed very playful, "The night is still young m'dear Lily don'cha know? There still be many ways of us slipping up eventually."

Darius then gave Lily a long kiss, onlookers watched the two of them with silent faces and whistling softly. Darius heard the noises and blushed, but he still held the kiss.

Darius smiled as they broke the kiss. That felt so exilirating. He couldn't explain why but that kiss was wonderful. If anything it might have been because Darius had always been ridiculed but tonight was diffrent...maybe because it looked like he was in costume, but who really cared?

"To the roof?" he asked.

"Patience, Meh. Its another one of those silly thinks you try to learn but can't..."
Dinah laughed and looked at Siren to see her laughing also...She glanced back around at the room, it was official she knew nobody else here so she was glad to have Siren and Maru for company. Even though Dinah hadn't known Maru for long she was classing him as a fired right now...

(sucky-ness gonk )

Alyssa walked into the dance hall her heels clicking softly with each step. She didn't know anyone, but was told it might be a good idea, and that she may find some nice people to meet at the dance.

She never really liked social things much, but it was worth a shot. As shy as she was she wanted at least someone she could talk to in tharea. Not to mention the fact that she was going to need to find a dorm soon. She adjusted the collar around her neck the bell ringing softly as she did so. The cat ears on her head twitched a bit as she looked in at the crowd.

"Maybe this wasn't such a good idea" she said to herself softly. The music wasn't bad, but she got a small twinge in her stomach at the crowd. Her long hair flowed down over her back, and just below where it stopped a long black tail hang down.

Ears, Tail, and bell. These three items made up her costume. Looking over the other costumes in the room she sighed a bit.

Brushing her skirt down Alyssa walked in and shyly walked around the outside of the room. She found a somewhat abandoned wall by the punch table and stopped there. She was very much so a wallflower, her shy nature showing through.

Folding her arms behind her back she leaned against the wall and watched the other people mingle. Taking in a deep breath she wondered to herself if she would even have the courage to approach anyone.

Misty could somewhat understand that Sakura was scared for her friend's lives, but she couldn't understand why she would give up a night of fun for that. The blue haired teen had her sword at hand, yet she was still having fun. That way she could protect Makie, while talking and dancing at the same time. Then again, she didn't know exactly what Sakura was going through, and didn't really want to intervene into her friend's life.

Misty did, however, wish that Sakura wasn't as serious as she was. It wasn't like her to be like that, at least to the blue haired girl it was. The taller girl was normally over protective, cold and serious. She barely had time to have fun, since she was busy training or something with her sword.

Yet, she could not see how, Sakura, some one who seems to be doing something fun or awesome all the time, was acting like this. It was beyond her what made Sakura suddenly act like this. It was great that she was taking her job seriously, but this isn't like her, and that made Misty feel uncomfortable around this new Sakura.

"If you know, then why are you acting like this?" Misty asked both coldly and slight concern. "This isn't like you, you shouldn't act like this." She could see that the lavender haired girl was also feeling slightly uncomfortable.

Maybe, eventually they could reach a breaking point in this senseless conversation. They were going no where when they talked, it was just simply straight foward. It felt as though it would never end and thus they needed a breaking point. That way they could go back in and dance, and maybe go back to spying on the couple. Nah, they've done enough spying, besides nothing bad actually happened, so Misty trusted Makie with Oliver.

Sakura's sudden outburst broke her from her thoughts. The blue haired girl's deep blue eyes widened with surprise as they came back to square one. A sudden urge to take her sword and just stick it through her friend's mouth to make her be quiet came over her. But she shook it off just before her pale hand touched her sword.

She looked down, not apologetically, but merely because she didn't want to listen to this. Misty also looked down because she was trying not to let anger come over her. The wind took her long midnight blue hair and flung it vigorously in the air. Soon, the wind died down and she succeeded in her goal, as Sakura's outburst stopped, which let the blue haired girl lift up her head. A neutral expression lay on her face, as her sky blue eyes, just looked at Sakura.

"Sakura. I realize you are angry, and getting it off your chest is good too, but..." Misty trailed off, noticing Sakura felt sorry, yet she continued on anyways. "You can't just yell at your friends like that. Sure, friends have the occasional fights, but normally it's about small things like 'You didn't phone me last night.' When they have bigger fights, normally they keep their distances for a couple of days."

"You should really watch what you yell as others are more sensitive then me. Others have less control over their feelings and some people can't control their anger and would have most likely tried to attack you already." Misty said with a sigh. "Now I'm going back in to avoid further conflict. You may come in if you wish, as you would still fit in. If you follow me, we can make up, if you choose to leave we'll just pretend as if nothing happened and we'll go about our ways. It's your choice."

It wasn't much of a choice though, since one choice would simply slowly destroy their friendship and the other would mend their friendship. If they just let it go and pretend as if nothing happened, then that would slowly destroy their friendship. Misty knew about that first hand, as if you don't apologize sincerely, then the next time you fight you'll have more anger or more sadness. Then, she simply turned around and walked back to the dance. Her long blue hair flowed through the wind as she walked swiftly. The girl stopped momentarily at the door, to give Sakura a little bit of time to decide what she wanted to do.

"So we can have fun together, or you can go do your job and otherwise miss a chance of a lifetime. You never know, I might die tomorrow and you might miss your chance to have a fun night of dancing with me." With that she opened the doors back into the dance where the loud music echoed through her ears. The song was fast, and Misty had no clue therre was a slow song played. She stood against the wall, waiting for Sakura. She'd give her friend a few minutes to come in before dancing.

Ai still felt like she needed to say more, to get more thoughts and feelings off her chest, she wanted to say more and more. Until she could be drowned in her words. Her eyes continued to stare at the ground, she could feel the great brush of winds lightly pounding her body as she listened to Misty ramble on.

You just can't just yell at your friends like that.

Sakura Ai was lightly confused but she didn't show it on her face. I mean, Feena yells at her all the time for not watching where she is going and stuff and Feena is practically a friend and a sister at the same time. Why can't she yell? She doesn't yell alot and sometimes when you're stressed you need someone to yell words at. Then why can't she relieve her stress? Yes, she may ment some of her words, but mostly she didn't.

She wasn't trying to destroy a friendship and stuff, she was just trying to get her old self back. She watched Misty walk back inside the dance with her soft enchanting lavender eyes that had so much sorrow and stress at the same time. With that, she lightly sighed and sat down on the steps, the metals on her outfit making slight noises as they hit the steps. SHe brought hr arms on top of her knee's as she stared at the sky. But more importantly, the moon.

She always followed the moon for her whole life, but tonight, the moon looked as if it had no more guidance for Ai, as if it was lifeless. With another sigh, Sakura Ai smiled. It was a simple smile but many thoghts ran through her head. She was thinking about her first day Ria. She remembered clear and well. She arrived at the girls dorm filled with life. When she was unpacking, someone entered her room, a girl, a student in Ria and she helped Ai unpack. Her name was Shinko. Later that day, Ai went to the Training hall and met Mitsu, where Mitsu was practicing her Tai Kwon Do moves on Ai.

Sakura wished she could go back in time and just relive that day, and the many days that brought surprises. Like that day when Oliver embaressed her in the summer trip, with his entrance filled with life and joy. But everyone wants to go back in time, its something everyone cannot wish.

"I still feel like i'm in a dream" she said softly as the silly wind circled her body, after a few minutes thinking things through she stood up and swiped the dust off her military outfit. Then she took out something out of her pocket, it was locket. Oliver, Feena, and Hiro have the same locket and the same picture inside. With a smile of rememberance, she placed the locket next to a group of roses and simply placed it there. She felt that she didn't need it anymore, that she needs to let things go.

With that she walked into the dance again, and she completely blocked out what happened between her and Misty.

"wooooooo" she said in a hyper tone, her arms out like she was flying a plane as she jogged over towards Misty. A cat-like smile was on Ai's face as she started to jump up and down in front of Misty. SHe doesn't know why, but when ever she hears music it makes her jump. She felt like her body was going to explode into million pieces or she felt like hugging everyone. But she just calmed down after a few minutes.

"So, what do you want to do." she said as she pocked Misty's side, asking the most annoying question there is in the world. That is, until someone tapped Ai's shoulder. With a glance over her shoulder it was Hiro, with that clueless look.

"Sakura, where were you? I was worried" but he didn't sound worried, he sounded boring.

"I was in OZ, visiting the wizard. No, just kidding, i went out for some air. It gets so hot on the dance floor you just need some air" she said, and it was a lie. But this was a great time to lie.
