Welcome to Gaia! ::

Zangonya kept a straight face "Oh, that is simple, really, for you see, Uncle Dina gave Megami the world, and showed her a sideof love shethought had died within herself. She cherished her time with him, but she is a strong and hardheaded woman. She may appear to be coldhearted, but deep inside, she still aches terribly over his death. However, do not misjudge her feelings, she is understanding of my uncle's death, and his final wishes were planned perfectly, in a way that was best for her wellbeing. My guess is, now she is off drinking her sorrows away with her brother, for the time being I suppose it is best we give them some time to cope. I, however, have accepted my mother's death, and will not falter in my promises to her. Which brings me to my request: would you guys be so kind as to alow me to accompany you?" She walked over to Bardok's car "I can pitch in money for gas or something if you want"

A loud clamor could be heard down at the other barcounter, and there sat Megami, drinking heavily, muttering to herself while crying and laughing at the same time. Her brother was dancing atop the counter, wearing a hideous orange dress, horribly smeared green lipstick and his hair was horribly ******** up. He was singing "Chaccaron Maccaron" with a huge bottle of Bourbon in his hand

Zangonya smirked "Ah, well, that';s too bad, Bardok, I even brought along my Hand Cannons" She whipped out what looked like two black hot glue guns "These babies were personally designed by myself, they are custom-made hand canons, capable of firing off shots comprised of super-charged heat particles and alpha waves. It is is also capable of being amplified by my lightning elemental properties, and can be charged up to extremely dangerous radiation levels if I so choose. But, I guess I was wrong to think that a lightning elemental such as yourself could understand the true beauty of such a weapon." She laughed "Just kidding, you guys are certainly very interesting, I really would like to accompany you guys, besides, I could use some companions"

Takara smiled and returned Elise's hug. It had been a while since she saw so many familiar faces all in one day.

"Yes, it has been quite a while, hasn't it? I've been all right, and yourself?"

As her gaze found Cyrus and Megami, she almost wished she hadn't. The two were clearly a wreck, completely drunk. She blinked.

"Oh dear..."

------------------------------------------------------------

Hikaru turned as she felt Xiadessa clutch her arm.

It must be happening again. At least this time, I've had time to try and think up ways to help. Let's see if anything works...

Pure white energy, Hikaru's own spirit energies, flooded Xiadessa's mind as the girl sought to block off the visions, isolating her friend's mind in a protective wall of white energy. Hikaru fell into herself, concentrating upon manipulating her power and keeping it strong, making a protective barrier inside the girl's mind, cutting off her core, the center of her being from the rest of her as Hikaru called to her.

"Xiadessa...Trust in me. Hold on to this light and block out everything else so the visions won't overwhelm you."

She remembered reading about seers for her lessons concerning an individual's power and potential, but she had never before met one. She did know though, that many were driven insane by what they saw if they were unable to control the tide and got swept away by the numerous sights.

Relieved her friend was all right, Hikaru let out the breath she had been holding and smiled gently, placing a delicate, cool hand upon Xiadessa's forehead.

"Don't be silly. Friends are supposed to help each other out. I'm just glad you're ok."

Patwinka walked in with Cosmona behind her, and she sat down at the bar "Lino, Dahling, martini, please" She turned to Elise, laughing at Cyrus and Megami "I see that those two are taking it a lot better than I had expected...give them a day or two, they will be over it. Which brings me to my current point, Elise, Takara, with the Magi now dead, the Seals of the ancients that kept the ruins of the ancients unaccessible are now broen, and, if my hunch is correct, the Black Star Nation will most likely be focused on them, which is why, I am afraid some details of the Tourament have been changed." She grabbed her martini and downed it "The three main events will still go on as scheduked, however, with the ruins accessible, it is in our best interest to excavate the ruins and relieve the treasures before the Nation does."

Souda nodded, It had been awhile since she had been around "people". She had gone through abit of travel, meeting all kinds of horrible and rude beings. Without noticing, Souda held on to Guraha's waist alittle tighter. She was glad she had met up with him when she did or she would be still wandering around the school. "I should be thanking you for your company." She smiled although she doubted he could tell.

Guraha looked up at the moon, which was now out, full and bright. He gazed across the table at Souda, who was finishing a giant Ice Cream Soda. "Souda.....just like this delicious Ice Cream Soda, you are sweet, bright, and soft.." She blushed deeply as he covered his mouth "um...sorry, that didn't come out right.....I hope you will...um....overlook that...." He sighed "Sorry, I haven't exactly ever been on a 'date'. Not even a friends' date.....then again, I never had time for friends or dates....anyway, it is getting late, would it be alright if I drove you home?"

Patwinka got up from the barstool, and bowed to the others "I am going home, as it is getting late, I will see you all tomorrow, so I bid you all godnight" She turned and left with Cosmona, to take her home then head home herself, having established a new Villa for herself on the base of Mt. Fuji
Lino looked over to the twins, who had passed out piss drunk. He sighed and turned to Takara "I feel for Cyus, I really do, for you see, before I became the successful sexy gay man I am today, I once ruled over an island country, and I had a beautiful wife. But, fate saw it fit for her to die, and so now I live a single life here, away from those memories. Anyway, it goes without saying, but, give Cyrus and his sister some time, they will be over it in a few days. In the meantime, the bar will be closingin about fifteen minutes, I will drag those two upstairs and let them crash on my couch. You all get home safe, ya hear?"
