Welcome to Gaia! ::

Gambler was grumbling the whole time and shooting Rave death glares. "Damn curse. Can't even strategize...." She grumbled some more. "Do you have a four Eldin?" Yes, she was about to have Eldin in the palm of her hand before Rave ruined her. She had to figure out a way to make him pay.

Joker laughed at her was taking out the lasagna. He cut it into square pieces and let it sit to cool off. He went to get plates to serve them.

Gambler glared at the cards and then spied on the food. She placed her cards down. "It's chow time." She said, her eyes light with hunger.

Joker nodded. "I hope everyone is up for Lasagna and steaks." He said. Gambler took all the cards and chips, putting them in there respective places and looked down at her plate that Joker place before her. She had a few big pieces of steak with alot of rice. Her mouth watered and she began to dig in. Joker placed lasagna plates in front of everyone, also handing out a bowl of salad each. He got everyone forks and knifes, napkins and drinks. Sitting down himself he looked at Dusk. "Monty is out having a time of his life like always and Raid is patroling and the twins are still with your friends I think. They might have gone by now and Talon is still in the other room. Oh!" He remembered about Talon and got. He got a plate of lasagna and steak with rice, saving it for him for later. "Remind me that it's there."

Gambler was stuffing her face with food not paying any attention to everyone. She finished in recorded time and felt her powers and strenght coming back to her. She cleaned her face with the napkin with great manners and got up to wash her plate. For some odd reason washing dishes made her calm. She washed the pans, srubbing them. She had to get back to work and do paper work. No one ever said being a boss was easy.

Joker just listened fascinated by the language. He was a little bit elvish but he just never really had the time to look into it so having people who were elfs and spoke it was something to cherish.

Monty came back through the back kitchen door and got himself a plate of food then walked back out.

Joker shook his head. "He's only with everyone unless ordered to. Other than that he spends his time with his weapons and training. Among other things." He remember the female from before and then finished up his food. He handed it to Gambler who was washing them. She finished up what she had and was given. "I'm going to go out." "Where?" "First to the clubs for a few hours. Then I have to check back with Raid about Casanova." Joker nodded letting her go.

Gambler went out in what she had on. She went into the city and no one paid any attention to her. She entered a store and was there for a few minutes. Coming out she had on a spiffy suit that complimented her figure. She had dark sunglasses on and her hair was down in wild curls. She looked dangerous and smoking hot. Walking down the side walk she entered a club that they usually go to.

Monty was in his shed cleaning his weapons and eating the food. He had fun with the female but it was only that, fun. He sometimes wished he could have a permenent someone but not with his line of work. So, he continued to focus on polishing his weapons.

Kyoshi was still knocked out but his body was healing slowly. He'd have to wake up and wash off but he couldn't because the author knocked him out.

Gambler was talking to the bartender. She tied her hair up in a high ponytail and took off her coat handing it over to him. She had a black dress shirt that had the first few buttons undone showing alittle bit more skin and the top of her chest. She ordered a mojito and drank it up, looking out at the dance floor, waiting for the right song to come on and dance to.

Joker washed the rest of the dishes and got out the cake, topping it off with chocolate frosting and making the fruit salad that was sugar coated. "Who wants some?" He asked everyone. Monty had come in to wash his dish and waited for the desserts to be served to everyone. He had old fashioned manners from ancient times so he waited patiently.

Gambler finished her drink. "So. How you been Gam?" The pretty brown haired, blue eyed and dippled cheek bartender asked. "I've been feeling like sh*t." She said ordering another mojito. "Why?" He gave her the drink. "Let's just say peace isn't exactly on earth. I've been through hell and back. I don't think things are going to be the same with what's going on in my little family." "Oh? How so?" "My brother and his girl are having problems. I just hope it didn't totally ended. Their good for each other. Besides, Kyoshi had a winning in her. If he did screw it up with her I'm going to really let him have it." The bartender laughed. "Only you Gam." "Yeah? You think that's bad?" "Actually, in my opinion, I think that's hot that your dangerous." She smiled and looked at him from the top of her glasses. "Thanks but not many guys can agree with you on that. I mean come on." He winked at her and went to take care of a few special orders for some other people. She smiled and looked out to the dance floor frowning. No one was playing good music. Everything seemed slow and there wasn't that many bright lights. She needed to have a word with the DJ. After her mojito of course.

Joker gave Eldin a good portion of both desserts and a big piece to Dusk. "Don't tell Gambler I gave you the best piece." He winked and gave Kalore his fruit salad. He was glad to be cooking for a big group again. It was like the old times. He smiled and gave Monty his piece. Monty was about to leave when Joker held him back and motioned for him to sit with the rest of the group. He grumbled something unintelligent and sat down in Gambler's former seat.

Joker looked at Dusk from the corner of his eye. Monty just looked at his food and ate slowly, even though he didn't want to be there. He respected Joker's food and really liked his food. A skill he has yet to master. One day he will but right now, he liked Joker doing all the cooking while he, Monty the former General of the Devil, cleans. Yes, even big guys like him clean. Without an apron sadly.

Gambler finished her mojito and walked into the dance floor. There was only a few people actually dancing while the rest were either making out or just standing there like complete morons. She rolled her eyes and went up to the DJ. They were talking for alittle bit and he looked over at the people. He turned the club lights out and had lasers, mirrored disco balls and strobe lights and moving lights. He put the volume up and began to play a beat that made her blood pump. She did a cool handshake with the DJ and made her way back to the bar. She ordered a tall glass of water. She was going to dance the night away. This was her down time since everything is tense. She drank it slowly and waited for the speed of the music to pick up.

Joker covered his mouth. He wanted to laugh but that would have earned him a punch so he didn't. Monty's lips twitched as well. This was proving to be an interesting thing.

Gambler drank her water and paid for it. A gorgeous male came up to her with a dazzling smile. She smiled in return but what he had in looks she could easily tell he lacked in dancing. She would Gamble her better guns on that one. Still, she let him lead her to the dance floor to see what he had. They were dancing and Gambler motioned the DJ to speed it up a bit. She wanted to see if the pretty boy could keep up with her. He began to frown as he was stumbling around. Gambler sighed thankful for the dark glasses and just danced. She was rocking the floor and tearing it up. Everyone were impressed and were trying to keep up. That wasn't what she was going for but as long as everyone danced it didn't matter. Her lovely dance partner was quickly kicked off the floor since he didn't keep up, but that was of his own doing. She still had a smile on her face but her eyes held disappointment. Once again, thankful for the dark glasses.
