Ai tilted his head to the side as he felt himself land on his own two feet once more in a manner that had him relaxing greatly. While floating was an interesting feeling he was glad to be back on his own two feet again. He looked between Kal and Alice for a moment, wondering if they were alright as they seemed suddenly to get so serious... had he said something wrong? He surely hoped not as he liked them both and had no desire to hurt them in anyway by saying the wrong words.
Vanleia tilted her head to one side, "Don't by anything? Hrm... like enchanted pocky that turns into little children?" She asked, giving a bit of a smile as she asked the question, wondering if the poor guy was recently experiencing the strange effects the magic had upon the pocky. It was quite startling and seemed to be especially so for this man.

Kal smiled his happy little face at Ai , he took his hand " where is you favorite place to be" he said with spunk. Alice looked over to them to see what they where doing.
She wasn't sure if she wanted to hang out with Kal or stay by her Dad. He seemed to be upset , and she didn't like seeing him so angry. " Don't be mad Daddy" she said to him.
Artz smirked at Alice "Im not upset" he turned to Vanleia " Soooo you know of this trickery" he started to walk over to her. " Clearly you didn't know about the shop either" he placed his hand ontop of table that had some pockies being displayed.
Alice snuck behind a table close to Ai. Spying was so much fun.

Ai gave a happy sound as they got to hold hands, "My favorite place? Hrm... I would say its either the Bridal Shop at the mall or the shop that sells sweets." He murmured, giving a happy, purring sound at the mere thought of those places. They were his favorite places to go in the whole world, "I want to be a bride someday." He explained to Kal, having no idea that his dream might be a strange one.
Vanleia shook her head, "I got Ai during a special event that the shop was throwing, an anniversary of sorts." She told the man, "Though I never came inside the shop before today." She looked around for a moment before she gave a chuckle. The interesting looking man seemed a bit quite put out by the shop and its magical candy she thought to herself.
"So what are you here for? Bringing the boy back for a refund? Or just to complain?" She asked in a curious manner.

The purr sound filled Kal's mind and he felt a jump in his legs , up he went into the air about a foot , then landed on the ground on his knees. " What does a Bridal Shop SMELL LIKE AI" he said that last bit in a high but sweet pitch. If he were in a Disney he would of got up and sang a song. He tilted his head back to Ai "hmmmmm?" he really wanted to know.
" I don't like your tone" his two tails stood up like a pitch fork , he didn't know how to feel. Kal could be fates gift , but Artz would need to believe in fate. His bitter feelings came from not knowing what was going on. His life was so planned out , he never let surprise in. Surprises hurt to much.
He felt a tear come down his cheek " I just don't like ......." he couldn't talk. He had to find some words " I just don't know what this shop is ... I need to understand" his voice went down a broken octave. He went off into a corner of the shop. An aurora formed around his body , like a soft mist.
Alice was to into jumping Kal then to see a crying father.

Ai tilted his head to the one side, "What the Bridal Shop smells like? Hrm... flowers I think is what it smells like first and foremost." He murmured in a thoughtful manner then gave a happy sound, "They often have pretty bouquets there, like the ones that the brides carry. I wanted one but Vanleia said that I couldn't it wouldn't keep until I could get married. I did get a pretty, lacy veil though. Ohhh, you should see it!"
The boy was flushed and happy, it would seem as though Kal had stumbled across Ai's favorite topic, anything to do with weddings, romance, and love... all of that sort of thing always got him talking in an excited way, made him flush, and he got all dreamy.
Vanleia blinked, feeling as if perhaps she should be trying to be nicer, maybe the guy hadn't been ready for another child? Just wanted to get some candy? She tilted her head to one side then followed along after him, "Ahh, forgive me. I am more friendly when at work... when I am outside of my job I am a but bad with people since they are a mystery to me when I am not working with them." She told him, feeling a bit bad. Making someone cry wasn't part of the norm for her.

Kal looking at him with big droopy eyes " I haven't explained anything you have done , I will have to try everything" he was stuck on the floor , his knees locked up. He didn't know what was wrong " I think my legs stopped working" he couldn't push him self back up.
Alice broke her spying "I can help you" her red hair swaying back and forth as she skipped to his aid. She reached her hands out , and he grabbed on but she wasn't strong enough to help him out.
"Can you help me Ai" Kal spoke out.
The shakes stopped a bit but Artz was feeling humbled by a women he didn't know. He hated this feeling up until now he thought he could bring the boy back , like do the work then give it back.
"My girls wanted to come in before a book signing I was doing" ...... He wasn't going to say how much money he spent on the pocky child. He was now feeling like a bad guy , but couldn't find the words to say it. " Soooo did you legalize him" he asked.
This is an acted of a registered Gaian putting someone of Kal's "type" into legal papers making them official member of Gaia. This also allows gardens to get health , life insurance for them. Some people are agents it not all the for the same reason. Some say its motive to 'kill for money' then some Gaian feel beings like Kal arnt human and shouldn't be Gaians.

Ai tilted his head to the side before he gave a nod and stepped forward, reaching out to take hold of one of Kal's hands in both of his and let Alice have the other one so that they could try to work together to pull him to his feet, "Maybe you need to take a bit of a rest?" He suggested, Kal was pretty active, far more so then Ai felt that he was so maybe the other boy was getting sleepy and that was why he was having a hard time getting up? Really it was just a thought on his part.
Vanleia reached a hand out to gentle pat the man's shoulder, as though to sooth him more. She was glad to see that he had relaxed at least somewhat, "I have learned that all things in Gaia need to be investigated carefully. My Boss ended up with two kids under rather strange circumstances herself." The woman explained, thinking on those two kids and how they had come about before shaking her head, it made a child coming from pocky seem normal enough.
"Ahh... haha... legalize." She murmured, tapping a finger against her lips. She didn't really know she had to do that, she found herself wondering if her Boss had done so. Rosa was a lot more together then she was so it was likely that she had...

Kal looked over to Alice "my legs hurt" he said in pain. His legs started to fall asleep. So he really wanted to get up. He reached his hands to be pulled up.
Once Alice and Ai helped him up , he walked around a bit to get the kinks out of his legs. " Sooo do you still want to sit Ai" he asked. Alice didn't mind either way.
Vanleia might of been braking through a vary distressed Artz , this woudn't normally happen but her words and last night made him vulnerable. " I don't really like the acted but ..... if .... he is staying with me..... hes going to...." he was pausing in and out of words.
He broke out of his mood " Where are the workers in this shop" he snapped. He took a pocky and ate it with one big scarf. "Maybe they will come out now .... I stole and ate something with out paying!" he was now back to his normal self , other then eating with his mouthfull.

Ai watched his friend in a concerned manner as he walked around to get his legs to working again before he gave a shake of his head, "No, it is alright." He murmured, not wanting for them to sit down again if sitting caused his friends legs to hurt him, "We should walk around some, so your legs are given time to feel better." He said, giving his friend a smile.
The woman smiled when the man seemed to be perking up, "Ahh... perhaps you should be careful in eating that stuff... we don't know how many of these candy pieces will turn into children after all." She cautioned Artz, looking around a moment for the workers before giving a smile, "Perhaps they are busy today? Or maybe they are on break?" She suggested to him, trying to calm him down.
"If they aren't around today maybe it would be best to come back another day? Even call ahead to make an appointment to meet with the one in charge? They do that on occasion at the place I work when they want to meet my Boss."

Kal looked around at the shop " Tell me more about this place" he ment the world he was living in but it sounded like he was talking about the pocky shop. Alice looked over at Ai wanting to know more about the shop.
The two were very interested in him and what he had to say.
"The shop is open , someone has to be here" he rolled his eyes. He went back to the bell and rang it a few more times. " I need to know my rights to this being and no offence but your only second hand information" he then rang the bell a few more times.
Kal and Alice looked at Artz then turned there attention back on Ai.

Ai tilted his head to the side, "More about this place?" He asked, looking around for a moment wondering if Kal meant the store that they were standing in. He gave a little shake of his head, "I don't know a lot about it." He told him. This was the first time, that he could remember at least, that he had ever been here. Sure he might have been born here but life as a piece of Pocky wasn't something he could recall in any fashion.
Vanleia gave a nod of her head, reaching out to ruffle Artz's hair before she turned to walk toward her son, "I hope that you get your answers." She told him, giving a smile. As she reached her boy she held a hand out to Ai, "Come here, love. We need to get rolling, there are a couple more stops in line before I need to go on shift."
The wedding pocky boy's eyes went huge, looking shocked before he finally nodded, "I-I guess..." He murmured before looking over at Kal, "We will talk again soon, alright?" He told him in a rush, stepping forward to give him a tight hug and a kiss on the cheek before he trotted over to take hold of his guardian's hand, "Alright, ready." He told her, not wanting to go but if they had to he would go with her.
He looked over his shoulder, watching friends and waving at them enthusiastically as they headed for the door, "Bye bye!" He called to them.
Vanleia waved as they reached the door, "Later loves!" The woman chirped before the two of them headed out the door.

Kal and Alice waved as the pocky boy and his guardian walked out the door. The two kids just played around a bit pretending they where birds. There arms flapped in the air as they made funny noises.
Artz just waited for someone to show up , he didn't say good bye to Vanleia. He didn't wait much long before storming out the shop. The shops doors flung open and the car doors also did the same. Artz was mad and using his powers. He didn't mean to do this , but his anger was so strong and his will to leave flung the doors open.
Alice looked at Kal " We better go" she said softly , Kal nodded and the three left the shop.
Artz was not happy he didn't get his answers , a swore to never come back to the shop.
