Welcome to Gaia! ::

Angelle lays in the soft grass of the forest and falls asleep.

"Is it new?" Pixie was curious about the sword and wondered if she could get some information out of the owner. She soon found herself distracted by the way the male tossed the blade delicately around. She too could hear a sound but it didn't quite hold her attention. Sonnet seemed to echo the sound of the blade as he whistled absentmindedly.

"The Echo," he finally states as Pixie turns her head slightly to look at him.

"That's the name of this blade? And how do you know that?"

"I'm a Kinuta. I love instruments and know about even the rarest of sound weapons." Sonnet glances at the rifles this male he did not know carried and shrugged. "Well, I know about a lot of sound weapons... maybe not all." Pixie continues to look at him, hoping he might say more, but he falls silent.

Angele continues to sleep.

Sonnet could admit when it came to being anything other than an expert on musical instruments he was useless. He isn’t at all fit for fighting. Unlike Pixie, he couldn’t go up against his old form on level ground even if he were allowed a couple thousand head starts. But he didn’t mind. He didn’t like fighting. Fighting was something that he felt forced to do if he had to. That didn’t mean that he didn’t enjoy fighting. He just preferred not to take part in such enjoyment. “Speaking of names,” Sonnet states as Pixie gazes at The Echo, “I didn’t catch yours, mister.” Sonnet figured that since this man had his name then he could have his. Finally, Pixie pries her eyes from the blade and looks up at Sonnet then at the male he spoke to. She was curious of his name as well. Pixie shifts a blanket that covered the bundle in her arms to reveal a tiny infants face. The small child seemed to stare at Pixie before blinking its eyes and sighing lightly. Pixie laughs before tossing the blanket back over the infant, concealing it from sight.

“Daniela seems to be awake. I’m certain she’s hungry. I want to stay and examine this blade some more so,” Pixie twirls around and extends the bundle to Sonnet. Sonnet furrows his eyebrows sadly before taking the bundle. He wanted to be out and about too but it was his turn to watch Daniela. He nods once before darting off into the forest. Pixie watches him go before shifting her eyes to the right. She turns around before her eyes fall on The Echo blade owner, at least that’s how she took it. “Yes so… what IS your name?”

Angele snorts, turns on her side, and mutters pancakes but continues sleeping.

Pixie watches the man curiously before he reveals his name to her. Ammon is a new name. She'd never heard a name quite like that one before. Quite unique. She glances down at The Echo and crouches down. She extends a hand and grasps the blade. She then attempts to lift it, slowly, meticulously. Once the blade slips from her grip she shuts her eyes and hopes not to cause the blade any damage. The blade does not make so much as a sound as it falls downward. Seconds before hitting the ground, chakra wraps around the weapon and cushions it. Pixie opens her eyes and allows the chakra to slowly flow away from the blade to allow for it to be laid gently onto the ground. She bolts upward and steps back from the blade. "Whoops," was all she could say. As soon as the words left her lips Sonnet was beside her. She glimpses at him as he sits down upon the ground. He spoke not a word as he holds the bottle Daniela drank from. Pixie examines him before noticing the crate that lay beside him. He had brought her supplies from home. She crosses over to his side and crouches down. She smiles at Daniela as she rambles through the crate. "So Ammon, what brings you here? We were planning on scouting this village for some nice wood for a puppet me and a friend are repairing." She begins setting items here and there on the ground as if setting up a work station.

Angele swallows a bug and bolts awake. She coughs a little before shaking her head. Sleepily she gazes around.

"I suppose you're right. Sound village plus sound ninja equals obvious." Pixie laughs at the obviousness of it as she takes a large slap of metal from the crate. She sets it beside her on the ground and shuts the crate. She stands and walks over to the blade once more. She wondered if she could lift the blade this time. In her mind she thought on trying to lift the blade. She begins to go for it when she sighs and straightens up. She turns back to her assorted items and walks over. She takes a seat closer beside Sonnet and gaze at the metal slab she had taken out. Within moments her skin takes on a glossy, transparent color. She brings her hands up to her face as they grow longer and generate sharp points. She turns her head to look at The Echo before grabbing up the metal slab. She begins shredding down the metal slab with only her bare, well, claws with ease. Sonnet watches her as she goes to work before rocking Daniela. The tiny infant smiles up at Sonnet as he turns his attention to her. He just stares at her and says nothing. "So the Kodahma clan is from Hidden where?"

"Night, Pixie."

"I was talking to Ammon, smarty-pants." Sonnet chuckles at Pixie who smirks as she works on the metal slab. Once in a while she glances at the Echo in order to slightly mimic its design.

Angele stands and seems to walk in the direction of the docks only to stop. She turns back around and heads back to her previous location and sits on a large rock.

Pixie couldn't help but smile at the fickle blade. Sometimes someone can hold it and sometimes someone can't. She contemplates on going and flipping the blade over to examine it as Ammon speaks. She remembers how the blade looked on the other side and shakes her head. She continues working on her project as Sonnet responds to Ammon. "Yeah, she's planning on making an exact replica of that blade of yours. Thing is... I don't know if she'll make it right-"

"Shuuuuuuuuut uuuuuuuuup! I'm just as good as Shaneko. I can make an exact copy of that blade no problem. I have analyzed the blade this entire time. Being a specialist of weapons, I can easily see how certain weapons work. So there's nothing to it."

"So you're telling us that you can analyze a blade like someone with the Ryuugan?"

"Shaneko doesn't need her Ryuugan to make weapons," states Pixie pouting. "Look. I can see that the blade is sound based. So it uses sound to harm a ninja. That's easy to see from the waves that were produced when Ammon swayed the blade through the air. I can make this blade do the same thing depending on how I shape and cut it."

"Good, good. Just one thing. When it comes to The Echo, it can only work in quiet places or the blade is lost. How can you make the blade do that?" Pixie sets down her supplies and furrows her eyebrows. She scrapes her claws against the ground in contemplation. Sonnet, a little amused by Pixie's pondering, releases a light laugh. Pixie frowns but does not turn her attention away from the blade she was working on. "Well, we know how to copy the blade as far as producing sound waves. Making the blade disappear is another thing. Or, at least that's how I interpret that description of the blade. Pixie can always shape the blade in a way that it is so thin that too much sound would make swinging the blade and producing a sound wave impossible." Pixie's head shoots up and she begins working on the blade once more.

Angele continues to sit and sighs.

"You too?" Pixie and Sonnet seemed to ask at the same time. Pixie turns her head slightly to look at Ammon as Sonnet raises an eyebrow in his direction. They realize that their method would no doubt be completely different from his method. There were a number of different ways to loop hole around that defect including altering the blade, however, the trick of the blade was necessary. An opponent would believe to have the upper hand once the blade either vanished or stopped sending out sound waves allowing for a surprise attack from the wielder. That defect couldn't be excluded from Pixie's weapon. It was more of n advantage to her.

"I was thinking of someone using maybe a move from Hidden Moon to silence the area around excluding the wielder. That way there would be little to no way to stop The Echo replica." Pixie looks at Sonnet and thinks on his method a while before shrugging. She does not voice her own method and continues working. Eventually the blade takes shape and it is time to test it out. She tosses the blade around in her hands a little only to hear a distorted sound. A growl builds up in her chest as she sits back down and begins tweaking the blade again.

Angele begins dosing off out of boredom.

"Yes, that seems like the easiest way." Sonnet nods as Pixie listens to him talk to Ammon. She cuts the blade down a little more before standing. Sonnet glances over at her and instantly appears before her before she can swing the blade. "That's going to be an ear splitter. Maybe I can help you?" Pixie wrinkles up her nose at Sonnet before shrugging.

"Whatever."

"Oh don't be that way, my love. Musical weapons are very difficult to copy unless you have a good understanding of sound instruments. Look, cut from here to here. Make it a thin cut. Don't cut through the metal. Then cut a hole this big here." Sonnet points to different points on the blade to demonstrate. Pixie follows his fingers and nods. Daniela squirms under the blankets as Sonnet cradles her in his left arm. Pixie sits and gets to work as Sonnet steps away from her workspace.
