Welcome to Gaia! ::

When Kira and Gin started off in a different direction, Isel went to explore the engine area. He walked up to a series of pipes sticking out of the wall. Not knowing what they were for, he grabbed a small wheel on one and turned it.
A blast of steam instantly shot from a vent near his feet. Isel gave a shout that sounded like a bark of surprise and kicked the vent, hard, hard enough to leave a dent in the grating. The steam stopped...not because of his kick, but because there was no more steam to come out. Isel's ears flattened to his face and he growled at the vent for a moment, as if daring it to blast him again.

She followed Gin closely and did as she was told, avoiding anything that even looked like it could hurt her. She didn't want to get scolded by Gin for being bad after all. When Gin got something and told her to hold out her hand she found it a little hard since her arms were full of stuff. Not wanting to put it all down, she said. "Could you put it on top of the pile? I'll be able to see it perfectly then."

"Ohh, yeah, silly me," Gin got down oh her knee's so she was on eye level, "but this isn't something for you to hold," she held up a small thing that looked like a badge. It was in the shape of a water lily with a sword through it, a bright glistening yet simple metal finish to it. She pointed to her own, on her lapel. which had two swords and was a deep green. "This says that I fly the ship, and am good at it, this one..." she placed it on Kira's lapel where it stuck without any kind of pin, ".. is a thank you for finding the key, that was mine before I got my promotion."

"It means," Gin stood back up and flashed a broad smile as she turned back to the locker, "that you have a reason to be proud, you helped me a lot, even if it was an accident." She turned back with a small satchel bag, "what'll your parents think when you return with all of those things? and a good story too."

"Hmm, Kira do you-" Gin saw the girl's saddened face and was about to ask but Kira beat her to it, "a stray? no par- Ohh..." she suddenly felt very guilty, understandably so. Although how was she to know, "tell me you at least have a place to stay?" she asked, "if not you could stay on the ship for a while at least, as long as you stay near me..." The captain probably wouldn't approve though, but it's not like anything was working for Kira to break.

Kira shook her head when asked if she had a place to stay. The place she called home now was nothing more than a convenient shelter from the weather. Her ears lifted up on her offer to stay in the ship. That would be a great idea! She could explore all she wanted, though she would probably get scolded for it. The newcomers seemed really protective of the ship. That was reasonable of course. If she had something that broke she would want to keep it safe from anyone. Looking back to Gin, she said. "Gin..I would like that. If it's okay with you of course.."

Gin picked up another small piece of metal and placed it on top of Kira's accumulation, "Hmm, plenty of beds here, we had far to many anyway, even with the full crew." She brushed her hair out of her eyes and motioned to the door, "I've got what I need, lets go see if the princess is being good in our engine room."

Green span around aimlessly listening to the odd people and watching to see if anything interesting would happen on it's own or if she would need to do something herself. "What's Earth? is that where you live?" She leaned back and fell purposefully, landing with her head by Amy's feet. "I live in a cottage, which is like a small house, I only need a small house cos' I am ickle."
