Welcome to Gaia! ::

Silver's face flushed a little, but he did his best to keep his cool, trying to divert his eyes to other things. Like the carton of milk. Milk was good.

He let the towel go to hang around his shoulders once more as he caught the carton. He quickly emptied the contents into his gaping maw, paying little attention to how much was actually left in it. Damn, he was famished. That's what happens when you have accelerated metabolism and don't eat for a few days, asleep or not. He lowered the carton and wiped off the milk from his own mouth with the towel, and let out another long sigh of relief.

"Aaahh... that hits the spot... Oh, er, yeah, actually I feel great. How long did I sleep? It musta been weeks again, right? Look, Mitsuyo, I'm really sorry. I don't mean to get myself beaten nearly to death everytime I step out the door... Eh heh heh..."

He laughed nervously, scratching at his head like he always did.

"Hey, I'm starving. We got anything else to eat?"

Silver padded over to the open fridge to peer inside.

Silver's eyes widened before he quickly shoved his head into the fridge. Catching any more of that, and there'd be nose blood all over the place. He kept it in there for a few moments, like an ostritch, untill Mitsuyo wandered away.

He closed his eyes and sighed again, exasperated this time. That Mitsuyo, what was he gonna do with her? Well, no time to worry about that. Now was the time for grubbing. He began to pile refrigerated delectables into his arms, breads, meats, cheeses, pretty much anything readily consumable. It was almost a few days worth of food for any normal person.

He spun around and shut the refrigerator door with his foot, dropping it all ont he kitchen table. No need for plates or even to assemble it into a meal of some sort, he just began to stuff his face. He felt like he hadn't eatten in weeks.

He stopped for a moment when she finally spoke up. His face flushed again, looking up at Mitsuyo. He hadn't known she had actually been watching that whole ordeal.

"Ooo... Ooo faw..."

A mouth full of food. He chocked it down with a large gulp.

"Y-you saw all that? Even if you say I've gotten better... Reiko still wiped the floor with me... I'd... I'd hoped I'd do better than that..."

Silver looked down at the table, his face contorted in confusion and dissapointment with himself. She didn't need to say anything. He knew how close he'd come to death. The weird thing was, it hadn't really bothered him at the time. Stranger still, he didn't even know how he survived. He should be dead.

"Oh, er, uh, no, I'd barely gotten out the door when I ran into Reiko. I didn't even get a chance to do any digging... Did... did you find out anything? You've probably had some time while I was out, right?"

Silver continued to stuff his face, though not quite as rapidly as before, paying a little more attention to Mitsuyo now. He gulped down another mouthful before speaking again.

"So, did you find anything useful inside? Any idea where he mighta gone?"

He started eatting again, but almost choked on the next bit of news.

"Ghgh... Gah... Hah... hah... The Stadium? Leviathan Stadium? What is it? Where?"

Silver dropped his food immediately and began to rumage through the envelopes, forgetting how hungry he was for the moment. Upon fishing out the single envelope out that he had specifically desired, he slowly raised it to his face and looked it over carefully, eyes wide, as if it were some sort of elusive and valuable treasure.

He carefully opened the envelope, being sure not to damage it or it's contents, and eagerly and excitedly read aloud the letter contained therein.

The shadow of an average sized man would slowly grow over the Dash as he was sitting on the dock of the bay wasting time [/otis redding]. It was Reiko and he didn't step heavy, but then he didn't step too light either.

"We live a hard life, huh?"

He tried to maintain his ironman demeanor but anyone who was attentive would know that Reiko was very cold as well. He had his hands folded under his black hoodie, leaving his sleeves to dangle and blow freely.

"Why did you choose such a cold place. I hate cold weather."

Reiko ignored Dash's question about the final member for the moment and focused on something else that was of less importance.

"You got the invitation didn't you? That'd make you the team captain. What would you call our team?"

He continued to stand there as the wind howled and made things even colder. He hated this kind of thing.

"Can't we like, go inside somewhere?"

It was surprising that he asked, because he didn't even bother waiting for an answer and headed for the nearest establishment.

Sniff

*Rose rubbed her freezing nose. It didn't help much since her hands were ice cold but meh, she was trying. She tightened the black pea coat around herself and dug her tan hands depper into the wool pockets. Damn cold. What the hell was she doing here? Rose cursed the cold as her red eyes stared at the ground. She jerked her head up at the sound of voices. Walking more slowly, her eyes made out two figures under the moon light. She stopped herself before she could bump into one of them and called out without really knowing who it was-*

Reiko?

Dash pauses as he watches the little encounter unfold. He doesn't recognize the lady, but Reiko appears to. He then looks in Reiko's direction and raises a brow. There was something about two black guys heading into a run down building with a single woman that just didn't seem right. No matter, Dash didn't care where they went! Just as long as it.. well, wasn't cold. He followed Reiko down the stairs. But he had to comment.

"I hope this lady is our missing teammate..."
