Romeo was the first off of Vorels back. His little idea with his batman and joker figures had him thrilled. He managed to take off his shirt and fling it to the ground before jumping into the water, it was a good thing they already had their bathing suits on. Romeo seemed to like the water and he also seemed quite taken in his little imaginary world with his action figures.
Dei wasn't far behind, getting down into her bathing suit she slipped her way in then looked to Vorel whom she hoped would also be joining them.
Clay looked at Baroness and Ter, then at the four others at the water, "I don't need to swim, I just got out of the pool before I came." Clay said deciding he'd stay nearer to Ter and his dragon. He seemed quite interested in both of them.

The Frost dragon instantly did exactly what he was told not to do. He lunged forward and landed in the water with all four feet causing a bit of a wave to go through the water and made water splash up into the air and on two of the cow children and the owl.
Ligeia blinked a couple times as he went from dry to completely soaked in one splash and then shook his wings off, "Vorel... I said 'don't splash'." The owl said... then knelt down to get a couple hand fulls of water and tossed it at the dragon who starred at him in shock when the water splashed against his forehead.
The owl stuck his tongue out at Vorel before giving his attention to Deidre and Romeo, "Are you two alright?"
Ter gave a little snickering sound as the Frost Dragon soaked the other three before looking at the boy who was standing with him. He watched him a moment. The kid had seemed excited over swimming a moment ago... it must mean he would rather hang out with the cool people he told himself before grinning, "Really? I was thinking on swimming myself. She may hate getting her pretty self wet but I find it fun."

Deidre seemed pretty amused by the dragons antics and returned the favor by sending some water back at Vorel. She was giggling and splashing about completely forgetting to answer Geia's question.
Romeo however didn't seem as excited, he was looking for something and it was hard to tell whether he had tears around his eyes or water. However one of his figures were missing. His Batman action figure he lost hold of when the wave got him. He was looking around the water desperately.
Clay looked at Ter then at Baroness and bit the bottom of his lip a little, "Well I guess it wouldn't be a bad thing to go swimming again..." He said. He liked both Ter and Baroness, he thought maybe he'd go swimming with Ter for a little bit then come back over to see Baroness. The idea sounded good to him in his head.

Vorel watched as Ligeia went over to Romeo and took advantage. He sat down in the water so that he could splash at the little girl with his front feet. He was careful not to send to much water her way as she seemed small... then again most everyone seemed small compared to Vorel these days.
Ligeia squatted down next to Romeo, looking him over, "Are you okay?" He asked, trying to determine if the boy were crying or if water were just dripping off of him. He looked down at the water then back up at the boy's face. Was he looking for something?
Ter grinned then started to slither over toward the water, pausing then a devious smile spread across his face. The snake lowered himself down to whisper to Clay, "You know... squatting down like that the owl isn't to stable." He murmured, "Dare you to tackle him."

Dei continued to play with Vorel. His splashes were much, much bigger than hers but it only added to the fun.
Romeo looked up at Geia, "I dropped Batman...I can't find him." He said, it was still hard to determine whether or not he was crying but he was obviously trying to find his figurine.
Clays eyes widened and he looked at Geia then to Ter, "But..." He started. He knew his dad would be very disappointed in him, he had taught him never to hurt some one else and that would probably hurt...then again he didn't want Ter to think he wasn't cool. He was having quite a dilemma.

The Frost dragon was in all ways amused by the little girl that was playing with him, enough so that he didn't seem to notice that Ter had come over to the edge of the water with the third of the cow kids. He liked Dei, she was playing splash with him and wasn't mad at his splashing!
Ligeia gave the boy a smile, "Its alright, we will find your Bat Man." He said, looking into the water before he started to feel around the bottom for the thing they were looking for. The waves from Vorel and Dei's splashing wasn't helping but he didn't say anything to the pair since they seemed to be having fun.
Ter glanced over at Clay before he started forward into the water, he was half tempted to give Ligeia a nudge on his own... only the owl might made good on that threat of his earlier... if one of the kids did it he would just think they were playing. The snake flattened out and went under the water, all of his coils going in as well.
He found himself watching from under water as Romeo and Ligeia searched, half wondering what it was they were looking for.

Romeo nodded a bit as Ligeia reassured him that they would find Batman. He continued to try and find his action figure as well but also finding it hard to see anything with all the ripples.
Deidre didn't seem to notice anyone outside of Vorel and their fun. She continued to splash at him and giggle as he splashed back. She was discovering new more efficient ways of splashing like, using her whole arm to send a mini wave at Vorel.
Clay watched as Ter slipped into the water. He wasn't sure whether or not to jump on Geia to try and push him down or not. It was a hard decision so he waited and mulled it over a bit longer.

Ter slithered along the bottom of the water, surfacing once to get a breath of air before going down once more. He was slowly but surely moving along the bottom of the water and he couldn't help but grin as he found exaclty what it was that the other two were looking for.
He surfaced once more, off to the side of Romeo and Geia and held the figure up just above the water for Clay to see.
"Hmmm... it couldn't have gotten to far." The owl told the boy, fishing around with his hands. The water had a current to it so Ligeia started to move in the direction the water was moving in his search.
Vorel paused in his splashing a moment to watch Ligeia, wondering what game he was playing with Romeo before he turned his attentions back to Deidre. His attention span was low when there were pretties around, especially ones that gave him their full attention.

Deidre was starting to get closer to Vorel. She noticed he looked off to the side and glanced at Romeo and Geia for a moment. She didn't pay much mind to them though. She continued to splash at Vorel finding their game very fun.
Romeo nodded, he followed close to Geia. He trusted the owl boy and thought for sure he'd be able to find Batman for him. He wiped at his eyes a bit, perhaps he was crying a bit. He went EVERYWHERE with his Batman.
Clay noticed Ter as he held the Batman toy up. He wondered what he was planning to do with it. He took Romeo's Batman action figure a lot too, he wondered if Ter was going to tease him as well.

Ter went back under, slithering his way along the bottom of the small stream in the opposite direction that Ligeia and Romeo were heading, passed Vorel and Deidre up to the waterfall. He lifted up there and put the Batman figure on one of the rocks. He sat him down, facing the stream to make it seem as if Batman were watching everyone before he left the water to return to Clay's side.
The owl was oblivious to his brother's presence as he was looking for a small toy and not a large snake with a mean sense of humor. He continued to search around in the water with his hands, moving slowly in the direction that the water moved wondering how far along the toy may have been pulled, "We will find it, don't worry." He assured him again, "It just blends in well with the rocks."
Vorel gave a little laugh, scooting to the side and swished his tail in the water to kick up some small waves as the girl started to come closer and closer to him.

Romeo nodded at Ligeia, "..Okay.." He responded still worried but trusting his baby sitter. He continued to follow Geia and search for Batman completely unaware that they were not going to find it on the bottom of the stream anymore.
Clay watched Ter as he went about hiding the Batman from his brother. If Ter was younger he would have probably got miffed that another kid was teasing his brother, normally only he was able to do that. However since Ter was so much older and he was so cool he didn't seem to mind too much, "How long are you gonna leave it up there?" Clay asked looking up at the water fall, he would probably only keep it there for about 30 minutes, at most, he wasn't sure what Ter's plans were.

The owl was starting to get worried, his wings fluttering behind him. How far could the toy have gotten? He stood up straight to look along the stream, from one end to the other. The water went through the stream but then what? Did it work like a fountain? It got sucked along by the current only to get drawn back to fall over the waterfall once more? He looked back and forth a couple times, thoughtful as he tried to figure it out.
Ter couldn't help but laugh a bit as he watched his brother look around in confusion. There was nothing better then ruffling the owl's feathers he thought before looking down at Clay, "Hmmm... good question. As fun as it is to mess with Ligeia probably should give it back at some point."

Romeo was starting to get worried again and started sniffling once Ligeia became obviously confused. The little boy missed his Batman toy a lot, and the thought of not being able to find it made his eyes start to get a little glassy.
Clay watched his brother start to get upset, he frowned a bit, he never tried to make him cry, when he teased him he just tried to get a rise out of him. Even if they had a rather peculiar bond he was still his brother and he did love him.
Dei was beginning to become bored with splashing around. She finally let up on the assault on Vorel and floated around a bit trying to figure out what else she and the dragon could do.

Ligeia blinked then flapped his wings and arms, "Ah! Its okay! I will keep looking don't worry. Its bound to turn up!" The owl said, quickly going back to searching the water. Poor kid, he didn't want for Romeo to cry! He had to find the toy!
Ter lowered a scaled hand to ruffle the boy's hair, "You know. You could always be the hero." He told Clay who seemed to be getting as upset as the dark haired boy was, "I can easily find other ways to tease by brother believe me." He was talented like that.
Vorel watched as the girl started to float around and he looked at her, then to the waterfall, then back, "I could show you a trick." He offered, forgetting that not everyone would know what was he was saying like Ligeia did.

Clay shook his head, "Then he'd want me to be nice to him all the time." He replied. Clay wasn't a softie, "Why would I care anyhow?" He added crossing his arms. He was cool too! He didn't care that his brother was getting all upset about the dumb toy.
"Huh?" Dei said confused, she didn't understand a thing Vorel just said to her. She looked at the dragon eyebrows furrowed trying to figure out what he just said.
Romeo nodded still sad but he was glad Geia wasn't planning on giving up. Every moment he didn't have Batman was a moment he became more frightened and sad.
