Welcome to Gaia! ::

Kaida listened to Ayala and stayed her tears when Wahotts comforted her. She saw the wolf head into the water and so Kaida undressed and did likewise, feeling the strange silver liquid envelop her. Since the wolves both spoke to her mind she knew she was able to hear them when she would submerge herself completely for a moment and rise up again. "I know what she will want to do to the Otogakure when she finds out what happened to them. It is why we need her Ayala. Because she is not just the only other person who would risk themselves to save Onii sama... She is also the only person who will not care about politics, and will do to the Otogakure, what we want to do to it.... I don't care about war... but I want that village to be destroyed. You didn't see him Ayala, you can't know..." Kaida trailed off, her eyes had grown wide, and looked distant. Her small hands were clenched into fists and her little body practically trembled with rage. Wahotts did not imitate this sentiment but instead paddled closer to Kaida and nudged her. It took several attempts for the wolf to seem to snap the girl out of her trance.

"Don't worry Wahotts, I'm sure you can do it boy. You will be able to find her and she will be able to help us and make everything better again. You got us here didn't you?" She sounded like her usual hopeful self again as the girl quickly moved to pull on the white clothing that she seemed to only get a little big for. They were a gift from Nakamura to Kaida.


Wahotts had not been seeking reassurance, he had been trying to chase off the anger, and it seemed he had succeeded. Kaida's entire aura changed whenever that feeling came about her. From a gentle blue aura, to a fiery read inferno burning twice as high as she was tall. Wahotts no longer cowered from it; but did his best to face his fear and try to bring her away from it whenever it showed itself. It was all he knew how to do.

"It's getting worse Mama" he said not specifying the statement, certian she would know what he was referring to. While Ayala was away, Wahotts emerged too and shook the silvery water from his body. He padded up onto the shore and soon both he and Kaida were ready to travel when Ayala returned with the flower. He did as she commanded, and it was as if each smell was unlocked to him as she described them. He inhaled deeper and his eyes seemed to fade with every breath until they had gone white. The world around him gray and colorless. Everything seemed to slow until it stopped in place. The portal was open in front of him and although he could not move, it was as if Wahotts was traveling across the world. In an instant, she was there, right before him. Shrouded in twisting ball of red and blue that bloomed around her like a flower, Wahotts could see Nakamura standing, still. Then the whole world rushed back into reverse. He was still standing where he had been. The world still gray, and on the horzion a blue and red point of light that showed him where she was.

Wahotts pointed toward shte heavens and unleashed an otherwolrdly howl. "I see her! I see her! Beyond the frozen lake, far beyond and well hidden, she is past the ruins of our old home and in a new place yet undiscovered by others." Wahotts stated, eyes still white as if in a trance. He raised to his feet and felt the weight of Kaida on his back. "Come on Mama, I'll lead the way!" He was fixated on his target. All that mattered was that he reach that one point, far off, that seemed as clear as day to him. Without another thought, Wahotts howled again and leaped through the gateway to be pulled far closer to their destination.

"...So this is really an abandoned village..." Felix remarked to Zenjin, walking beside him softly. He was glancing about curiously at the empty streets and houses of the place as they passed through them, listening to the echo of his own and Zenjin's footsteps alone in certain places.
"...It sounds like there probably aren't even that many villagers left..." Felix remarked about the various times they were forced from their homes and had to rebuild.
"...Have you guys found the lightning master yet... I read that the other masters were destroyed but that one disappeared... at least... the book I read from says his whereabouts are unknown."
Felix noticed the silver lighting up ahead... which brought about immediately a relaxing and peaceful state to his mind... seeing the lights and shadows dance along the wall there from the spring... the waters reflecting about.
Felix noticed that the Wolf had reverted to its natural form... and so stopped with his questions in understanding of the other creature.
"...This looks like an important place." Felix knelt down beside the waters, looking into them with his own silver eyes... breathing in the refreshing aqua smell of the area.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Felix remained in his crouched position, leaning over the water... eyes reflecting its own shiny silver color in the eerie glow of the liquid. When Nakamura appeared... of course... Felix was going through a tough time and he was just trying to hide it, to escape somehow. He wanted to reach out and strike the water with his hand, splashing it cruelly. He knew it would serve no purpose, but it would ease his frustrations right? Could he be mature enough to bear all of the pain within his heart? Could he be mature enough to bear the trust and faith that Nakamura was placing in him. Felix knew he was weak, he was nothing... nothing like her at least. He didn't even know why she had agree'd to take him in the first place. He was just a kid.
...He was just a kid... in soul, and body both.

"...It sounds so noble.." Felix's voice broke faintly as he responded to her explanation regarding the masters, his body shaking a little while he was still hidden from her.
Felix would have fallen forward, just completely loosing his balance and splashing into the water full force when she gently pushed him. But his hands were gripped to the edge as if in the cold grasp of shaking death. When she touched him, he finally turned to look back at her... and his eyes met hers in such sadness... or just... scared. Felix was tired, and frustrated... He didn't know 'what' to do... and he couldn't possibly see how he could be any help to her. She was being too nice to him, he didn't deserve any of it.
Tears rolled silently down his face from his blurred and diluted silver eyes. This eleven year old had no idea now why he existed... and wondered if he should even care by now. He knew it was weak, and he hated himself for it.. but there was nothing he could do. Most of all, he was scared... he did not understand at all.
Felix had that sick feeling in his stomach, and his skin felt cold and clammy.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Felix reached up, wiping the tears out of his eyes quickly with his arm, just leaving faintly reddened rims around his eyes. He didn't like how she could see him like this, he barely knew her... and she barely knew him. So far she had done nothing to break his trust though, she had actually saved him.
When she spoke about her decision to save the villagers he almost smiled. Of course she 'could have' sat idly by waiting for the attack. Felix knew all about that, Konoha was pretty much just sitting idly by doing just that right about now. Nakamura was more pro-active and responsible it would seem.
"...Yea..." he responded in a faint voice to her question. He could indeed trust her... and it seemed that she wanted him to try the water currently.
Felix reached out his hand slowly... softly breaking the surface of the water. It felt so good... refreshing and warm, yet cool at the same time. Felix could detect chakra properties in it, but nothing in specific... for all intents and purposes though, it was a magical spring. He could feel a numbing and revitalizing feel traveling up his arm slowly. He scooped it, lifting up a handful to splash his face for a moment. Before he knew it he had completely fallen in. There was a small splash.
Felix sunk into the water... feeling the refreshing aura all around him, he had the feeling that if he was comfortable sleeping underwater, that's probably what would have instantly happened when he hit it. As it was, he opened his eyes and watched the multitudes of oxygen bubbles billow out from him and part from his body, slowly floating back to the surface, which was merely a cloudy mirrored blur... quite beautiful actually. Funnily enough, his eyes felt better open under this water... he did not even feel the need to breath here.
After a moment... he resurfaced, dark hair plastered about his face and silver eyes as he felt like a new person. Probably looked like one too, completely refreshed and feeling as if all of his worry had dissipated. Remembering to breath, he opened his mouth, sucking in cool oxygen for a moment.
"...What kind of water is this?" He turned, open eyed, to Nakamura.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Felix stood about waist deep in the water for a moment... listening to Nakamura speak about the water. Small droplets cascaded down his raven black hair, beading and dripping down over his face.
"...Woah, I felt chakra properties in it... but I could never have imagined such intensity from the water." Felix said intensity because he could not think of any other word for the soothing feeling provided by the water. He had never felt such a thing before, it restored fatigue and stirred his own chakra at the same time, as if restoring him completely. It was the closest thing to a magic fountain that he could imagine.
At her words Felix nodded. He reached out with his chakra, molding it within himself for a small moment before touching out to the water with it.
A sudden flash of silver colored lightning arced all throughout the water, and Felix felt it heat about a hundred degree's for a split second. The lightning had twisted along the water's bottom, spreading out and crisscrossing in strange patterns along the floor of the spring. It was beautiful, and strange that he could think such a thought when in reality such a charge should have killed him on the spot. He had no time to figure out why no harm came to himself though with the beautiful display of light... allowing all within the water to be viewed below the reflective silver surface.
In just that split second it was gone though, and a very perturbed Felix managed to pull himself out of the water for the most part. He sat down on the edge and reached up to wipe some of the water off his face. It was that same silver color to his chakra as before... he had more than an idea that it was his own fault over that of the Silver Spring's. Still, he had rather enjoyed that time in the water... he even felt as if his chakra level had evolved... or matured somehow in control. Seeing it had been good for his own understanding as well.

(Entrance: Village homes and other Wanderings)

Travis watched the goings one from his vantage point. He had circled the Town once, to learn its basic layout. That way he could find his way around should he need to fight or hide... He always felt better knowing his territory.
He had approved so far, of what he had saw, however he would miss the great forest... not so much the hidden leaf village however.

He had wanted to talk to Felix, but he seemed busy with the woman, well young woman, who had brought them to this empty village. He wasn't sure what to think of her, but if Felix was willing to trust her, the least he could do is offer her the same chance.

He sat on his haunches, on a near by rock over looking the pool and spring.
The spring was very.. odd... but not in the bad way. Maybe he would check it out after they left. He smiled slightly to himself as he saw Felix messing with the Spring.. and the woman saying something about a Lighting master. Nothing he knew about..

So he waited.

((He didn't initiate a Hide, so I'm not rolling to know he's there. Also... Taki is surrounded by Forestry. wink ))

Nakamura's eyes shot a hasty gaze towards Felix's friend. She could feel his chakra in this place especially... even if he was a few yards away. She would have beckoned for him to come closer, but it seemed that he was content simply watching. He doesn't honestly think he's suppressing his chakra signature...

Turning her attention back to Felix, she gave a rather devious smile to him. She knew all too well that this technique she was about to show them would be a familiar one. The question was, did the Leaf manage to share it's secret with them before they left? "Wait here for just a moment. It seems that your friend is also ready to get some training underway... but... I have an idea that I think you'll like." she moved her hands into the seal of the Ram, channeling her own chakra throughout her body.

In an instant, Nakamura's body seemed to phase out of existance, only to re-appear behind the other boy. She gave him a light tap on the shoulder before whispering in his ear. "Hi, how do you like my village?"

(yea,but nothing like the big forest around konoha. Hopefully pine though.. i like pine forests...)

Travis didn't jump when the girl vanished then appeared behind him... he had expected something like that to happen for a few minutes now. Also he had spotted her doing the hand seal of the Ram. He turned with the measured pace of a predator who is ready for anything.

" Hello... the village is.. nice. Empty however, and very quiet. What happened to the people? " He asked. He didn't know what else to say, he didn't know her name and she hadn't asked his.

Travis kept his gaze lock to her, though he had the feeling if she wanted to kill him, there was little he could do...

On the other hand, she was pretty... and probably didn't want to kill him, otherwise she wouldn't have brought him here. He waited for her response.
