Deimos could hardly contain his exitement. So many new places to see, new things to explore. He was rushing out into the green area when he spotted Reid and smilled, rushying to him. "Lo Reid!" He cried out. Maybe Reid would want to go exploring.
Jizzy was limping behind, just one crutch in use. She couldn't stand lugging around both of them. She already had half a mind to ditch this one, but as she saw Chao up ahead she decided against it. "Hey Chao." She exclaimed, making her way, slow and steady, towards her.

"Mummy! Hurry!" Ike yelled as he loped on all fours in the general direction of the maze. Everything was so new! So much bigger!
"I'm coming! Ho--ohgod," Rabid mumbled when she heard Jizzy's voice. She wasn't ready to see anyone...not yet.
No, she thought, I have to get back into the swing of things.
She clutched her opal L.T.J. and sprinted quickly after her son.
Liam picked up the pace, trying to keep in step with Rabid. He held a smutty mystery novel in one hand, laughing about the horrible inconsistencies and awful misinterpretations of spirit life. He hadn't wanted to put the book down, but was eager to get outside for once. He hadn't seen much of the HQ grounds...if he'd seen any at all...not that he could see much while reading.
"DEEEEEEI! REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEID!"
Calling Ike insanely ecstatic would be the understatement of the millenium. He hadn't seen either of his friends in such a long time...let alone was able to play with them!

The firefly perked at the sound of his name, recognizing the tones immediately. He hopped up so he could see over the Katamari he'd begun to roll back.
"Dei! Ike!" he cheered happily as his sight confirmed the sounds and abandoned the Katamari without a second thought, flying towards his friends. He managed a a decent landing on Deimos' head, as it was about midway between where he'd been and Ike.
Shifting around he peered down into his friend's eyes and grinned, "'Lo Dei!" he pulled up, sitting firmly on the older Mishap's head and waved over to Ike.
Chao grinned and stood up, brushing the grass stains from her jeans and tank-top. Oh how she loved the warmth of the this area.
"Hey guys!" she called, waving towards them and she haeded over their way so they could meet halfway.

Deimos folded his eyebrow wings as to prevent them from beign smooshed. "Reid. Get off my head." He said as nicely as he could muster as he tried to balance the child half his size onto his not that large head. If it had been his back, alright, but head? "Lo Ike." He mumbled as he tried to pry the four arms child from his head.
Jizzy met up with Chao, and flopped down right there at the midpoint, chucking the crutch aside. She waved over at Rabid. She was sick and tired of those damn things. "Lo guys."

Ike giggled and gave Dei a quick squeeze, hoping to not pass the touching boundaries.
"Hiya! How's Dei?" he then held his arms up toward Reid, "Reid! Reid feel kay?" He vaguely remembered Reid sneezing the last time they'd seen each other...
Liam dog-eared the page of his novel, down to where he'd read, and sat down next to Jizzy. Oh, to be surrounded by attractive young women...young? Someone here was not so young...he could feel it...
"Allo, luvs."
Rabid smiled shyly and sat down, sprawled over Liam. Jizzy's crutch soon caught her eye, and she mentally slapped herself.
"Jizzy, my...silliest of friends...why are you still limping around on that thing?"
Jizzy? Liam snerked. Oh, the joys of obscene Earthien slang...

Reid laughed warmly and allowed himself to be pried off, wiggling out of the older Mishap's grip to dive down and tackle Ike, hugging him once they were firmly on the ground.
"Reid feel ver' ki!" Reid replied with a grin, he'd felt awful a while ago, and then his Mu hadn't let him run around with Shashi or anything, not that he'd felt like he could, he could barely move. But now he was happy and lacked the sniffles and just felt filled to the brim with energy, like he could run and fly forever!
But having his friends around was even better than flying solo. With a small nod at the thought his torso to lit up beneath his shirt.
"Ike n'Dei ki?"
Chao flopped down on the opposite side of Jizzy, prompty falling back onto her back against the grass, "'Lo everyone."

"I'm fine." Deimos said witha shrug, looking around. He spotted Reid's katamari in the distance and pointed it out. "What's that?" He asked. He'd never seen one before.
Jizzy looked up at Rabid, confused, the realization dawned on her ahd she slapped her forehead. "By gods, Rabid, you're right. I've been limping around for nothing. By gods I'm so dumb." She said, slapping her head repeatedly before a snerk came to her attention and she finally noticed Liam. "Oh, Lo' New guy." She said.

Ike giggled and struggled to stand up, peering at whatever Dei was pointing too.
"Ike kay...but what that?"
He'd seen something like it in a shop window a long time ago, but Mummy had screamed and pulled him away really quick...
"Jizzy, I presume? Name's Liam," he eyed Rabid nervously, fairly certain of what she was going to do, "I 'ope pain doesn't bother ye..."
Rabid took a deep breath and bent down slowly, exposing a patch of Jizzy's flesh. She bared her fangs and gave Jizzy a final look before digging said fangs deep into her friend's flesh, reaching muscle. She pulled away before the blood began to run and bit her own tongue, spitting a gob of Vampiric blood into the wound.
"Internal," she stated simply, "Harder to heal."
Liam shuddered. One never could get used to seeing that...
Wait...what was that? There was something in Jizzys blood...something...was missing! How peculiar...

Reid stood as well, looking at what the others were pointing too.
"Ah! Tha's a Ka'amari," he replied with a nod, "rolls lik'a ball but stuffs stay onit n'sa Ka'amari ge's bigger," he gestured to the blanket, patches of grass and several shirting that were already sticking to the Katamari's surface.
Chao blinked as Rabid suddenly beant down and slit open Jizzy's flesh, tilting an eyebrow at the, to her at least, bizarre turn of events. As Rabid mentioned healing the teen nodded in understanding, vampiric blood... healing properties... hadn't Rico tried to explain that to her once? Oh well... wordlessly she slid her gaze back to the sky.

Deimos grinned. 'Do birds and stuff stick to it?' He asked, sirking evily. Oh they're have roast fowl tonight.
Jizzy winced as her already tender wound was bitten, her hands ripping a few blades from the ground. She was no stranger to pain, but it never was too pleasant. As the wound sizzled slightly, healing, she tested her foot, no pain. She stood. Nothing. She did a small jumping dance. 'I'M HEALED!" She cried out doing small triamphant jig.

"Ooooh. Iss cool..." Ike mused, and then looked to Deimos, "Bah. Dei no squoosh birdies!" His brother could be so violent. It irked him sometimes. His eyes floated toward the maze...oh, how he wanted go in ther,e even if it meant getting lost...
Rabid laughed happily at Jizzy's leaping and threw herself backward before rolling off of Liam, "You're healed!"
Liam winced and rubbed the left side of his chest where his control panel was imbedded. The fall had given him a slight electric shock, therefore momentarily glitching his system out. He sat and shook his head to clear it.
"Ey, Chao? I 'aven't 'ad the change ter fix yer knife yet. I 'ope ye don't mind?"
He'd actually forgotten, this time.

Reid frowned, not liking the idea of squishing helpless birds either, "Ike righ', no squish birds. Ka'amari not big nuff n'way," he stated firmly, though his eyes followed his friend's gaze over to the maze and he tilted his head.
"Ike want'a go'in maze?"
Chao grinned happily, "yay! That's wonderful Jizzy! Want to burn the crutches?" she asked, waggling her eyebrows, though it was hard to tell if she was joking or serious.
Her gaze flicked to Liam and she smiled, "it's fine, really, take your time. I'm not exactly facing a shortage of them."

Deimos gave a dissapointed sigh. Well there went lunch, but the maze caught his attention. Looking back at his small companinon he started off towards it. "Let's go. Mazes are made to keep people from getting somewhere, so we have to figure out where the maze goes." he said, marching off.
Jizzy continued her happy jig and her eyes lit up as Chao mentioned the burning. "Oh can we really? Can we make s'more's too? Chesnut's roasting on the crutches fire.." She sung the last sentence to the popular christmas song, flopping ack down again and pounding her feet happily on the floor. Oh it felt so good to walk again.

"Yuh. Kay," Ike nodded and scampered quickly after Deimos. His brother always had some kind of adventure planned! He hoped there would be a caste on the other side with some kind of treasure...
"Right-o," Liam smiled slightly and dropped back to the ground, immediately being shocked. Again. His neck gave a spasm, and he made a mental note to not move...right in case. The idea of Chao with a horde of knives was vaguely frightening, but also fairly exciting.
"Ugh...can you imagine the smell when the rubber burns?" Rabid looked down toward the bottom of the crutch, before peering up at the arm...rest...things, "Ugh. I say we toss them in the lake and let them freeeeeeze." It was amazing, to her. She felt absolutely no sadness. Only...content. Had she finally come to grips with the whole situation? It'd been a long time...

"Ki," Reid nodded and hopped into the air, following his friends that way. What would await at the end of the maze? Curiously he veered upwards, looking out over the vast maze. It was huge! He couldn't even see what was at the end, or where the end was. Was there an end?
Giving his head a shake he dove back down into the maze and continued following his friends.
Chao tilted her head and nodded in agreement with Rabid, burning rubber was nothing that they needed in their lungs. She 'hrm'ed quietly, then snapped her fingers, "how about this? We chop off the rubber and destroy it seperately then burn the normal wood?"
