Welcome to Gaia! ::

"I'm sorry to hear about that..." Compared to Rai and Shin, she didn't know who had it worst...no...comparing them wouldn't be the best thing to think about, both lost the ones they truly loved and their people of the village...losing their home due to these masters or mistress or what ever the hell they are called taking over as if they had the right to do so. "Even if you may not see Kumogakure again...I can assure you that being in Iwagakure will be just like like Kumogakure, heh we have the mountains but minus the snow though!" She said with a smile to try to drag him from that depressing thoughts. "Maybe...Just maybe...us genins right now will soon in the future be able to free the villages taken over by the bad guys...It's a big dream that may not come true, but it's one of my goals I'm trying to reach for." She turned Rai as she looked into his eyes. "Most new shinobi's wish to be the kage of the village, I think we need to think bigger then that...Being able to do something other then just sitting at a desk signing papers for your village." She then saw Rai get dragged away by Giglamesh and that's when the embarrassment started.

"Oh nooo!" She covered her face in embarrassment with her free hand with the large sleeve of the Kimono, how could he say that? What's even worse is that she knew what a condom was! Her mom was odd to teach her that stuff back then and the Henka clans member sulked (purple lines darken her face emotion when characters are sad/scared or disturbed.) "We're only eleven and twelve and he's talking about that...?" She held Rai's hand tightly in fear of other people over hearing what Giglamesh is talking about, mainly Mujina(Katagi)-kun, Shin-kun and Keiko-sensei...along with other people passing by the house.

"I'm all right." Katagi said with a smile as he replied back to Keiko from her question before. "Oh no...Nii-san and Nee-chan is coming this way...Uh, have a happy festival guys!" Pulling down the mask to be hidden from his older brother and sister which might be a failed plan as they knew what Yukata he wore and his grey hair that would stick out from the rest with the exception of Shinratsu. He tried to walk away from his old sensei's and acquaintances from before before They had the chance to embarrass him. "What is this...the festival of love?" The grey haired genin sighed about the thought of seeing Shizuka with the new guy, his brother flirting with a girl giving out food and Giglamesh and Keiko getting mushy mushy with each other. "It's not my fault I thought the booth said "Kissing booth" Great, he was coming this way with his sister. Whats the worst that can happen? "Nii-san, Nee-chan...What happened back there?" "Your brother here was trying to kiss a girl while she was giving out food..." Her face would meet her palm as she wondered where on the sales booth did it say kissing? "Katagi-kun, Please keep an eye on your brother for me okay? It seems you're more mature then this dimwit of a brother of mines..." Thats...the worse that can happen... "But..." With that his sister already walked off from the two and he was alone with his ero nii-san. "Hehe..." His older brother laughed and crossed his arms as his plan worked. "Just as I planned...See ya Katagi-kun, enjoy the Festival!" Pulling his brothers Yukata back he wondered where the hell he was running off too.


"Just where are you going? Nee-chan told me to look after you, you perverted freak..." His older brother would twist katagi's arm and push him back. "You didn't want to hang around her all day did you? Listen, I'll give you some money to waste on stuff if you let me go...I planned to have us enjoy the festival on our own." He kept a cool tone as he knew his brother wouldn't just reject the cash. "If you don't I can always teach you my ways on getting the ladies..." Katagi sighed as he looked down at the floor. "Or the ways of being beaten by a pulp by them? I'll take the cash then...I wanted us three as siblings to enjoy the festival, not be broken apart...Just this once, one week of a festival. Can you just stop thinking the impossible? That you're going to get a girl friend?" "No can do, I'll find the one who's right for me!" He made a pose with stars shining in his eyes, katagi shook his head. "Right...Thanks for the cash." With that Katagi went off to venture for himself in this festival.


"Jeez...quit being so boring! Look, I'll find you some one who you can travel with!" He pointed his finger at random people until he chose one who matched most of Katagi's features. "White hair, blue eyes...Probably as boring as him...There you go! I bet you'll become best friends" He would push Katagi from his spot and towards Giglamesh's house as he saw Shinratsu walk further into the house. "I can't go in there! That's Giglamesh-sensei's house and That would be breaking and entering you idiot!" Before he could look behind him, his brother already body flickered some where else. "Finally...whew..." He looked at the apartment complex where Giglamesh lived and that Shinratsu boy entered...maybe showing him around the festivals was a good Idea...That is if he wanted it. But by the looks of it he was busy filling his stomach as he brought the food Keiko-sensei some where else to eat.

Giglamesh eye would get incredibly shifty, he had no idea that shizuka knew about that kind of stuff especial what a condom was. But ironicly from what he saw from her sister that hunter henka from the moutans, aparenlt the mother tought them things of that nature at a young age. "Umm...well......uhhh........whoops." Giglamesh diddnt really know what to say as he was stilll surprised as hell she knew what a condom was, he didnt know that till....much after her age..and for that matter never needed to use them. Since she actualy knew what he was talking about it wassent as much fun any more and now made it incredibly akward. giglamesh would basicly slide rai back over to shizuka's side...eye still kind of shifty.

((were in hall way out side the aparment on second floor of a bulding, gigs armory/garden that is in his armory which is basicly in the basement of the aparment bulding.

and katagi gig is about to do that with.......*counting heads.* cheese left so that leaves hamburger (rai) lettuce (shin) and sourcream (shizuka) as well as himself and mai around durring the festival.))

Giglamesh smiled as shin bascily got wide eyed as the plate was forced in to his hands. He they became quite and he knew that boy since he was so simular to him, he was thinking of his past and while it was painfull both knew he couldn't go back on to it, time was such a fickle thing. Keiko would pull out of his arms and she was smileing, she had somethign in store so giglamesh got a big grin. But after it took her a few minutes to come out giglameshs went back in there apartment from the hall. He didnt see her he went threw each of the rooms and she was gone mai was sleeping on htere bed by a note. He would take the note and pick up mai placing her on his shoulder to sleep and he would walk back in the hall he would try to open the letter but it was heavily stuck closed......so he basicly ripped it in half and the placed the peices of the note back togther and read them.

He stood there for a moment reading it, then as he finished he due to the monster brewing in his pants, while he was mad she left like that due to the situation in pants getting all worked up he woudl instead get the depression aura of purple lines looming over his head after he had finished reading the letter. What if she wassent fine? she even said she would be killed? Giglamesh woudlnt be able to live with himself if he found out that that something happend to her as well as him not doing any thing about it he would even want to live with himself. Instead of being happy this only deppressed him he didnt know where she was and it would heavily worry him, yet he looked down the hall way to rai and shizuka then back to shin. He coudltn allow them to know, as well as they seemd to like gig acting playfull even shin was haveing fun trying when he was in the burrito, for them he coudlnt show them his feeling plus for kei he would go ahead and take them out. ....First one of the things on the list, giglamehs would take thee plate of food and shove it in his mouth move his head so he chewed and rubed his throat till he swallowed it. "sorry lettuce....orders are orders." The it hit him, while he proably wouldn't be able to as the feeling of worry would onyl worsen, he least had a plan to do kei's list in case she came home fine, and seeing he did the list to get some a**....he didnt have much choice so he would go ahead and decide to do it....first the festival, Then he would see rai and shizuka they should of seen this comeing froma mile away. "Ohhhhh hamburger's in love with sourcreammmmmm!!!!" He grinned and smiled very wide trying to hide he frustration and worry.

Giglamesh woudl then begin to walk behidne shin pushing him as well as rai and shizuka out to the streets. Once there he would see one of his former students standing there looking in his and kei's ararment complex. ".......hey its.............okorobi?" Many knew giglamehs as a brute, but those that knew him knew he was incredibly smart and tactful..that didnt mean he was good at names as actualy he was very bad at them.

[[mission continued from page 212]]

The image of a fish being stabbed and a girl pulling off her own socks with her toes came rushing into his mind. And why the hell did so many perverted sexual tortuers come rushing in right behind it? It was the song, it had to be. That was the only explination...He had seen the damn anime once long before and remembered how disturbing the thing was, in a good way. Hell, its predicessor had a chick that bleed so much she flooded the world. After something like that, this song was pretty sane come to think of it.

The heat of the lights and the breath of the crowd were starting to bother Roy a bit. Not in a matter that it would disturb his performance but more in an annoyance sort of way. If this was an RPG, he'd probably have an Annoyance Bar instead of an HP Bar. Furthermore, if that was the case, the bar would be int he red (or whatever color would be used to signal close to depletion). He remembered again why he barly came into this giant cave of sausage. During the slight lulls in the song, Roy would take quick gazes out into the crowd and saw nearly no girls, especially none that he'd be interested in. Nine-times-out-of-ten, the few girls that were there were probably already in relationships, so oblivious of what little they had that they would freak if asked out, or they were gay, excuse me, Lesbians. Thats the correct term now right?

Either way, Roy was tearing up the song. It helped to have those disturbing images rushing in and out of his mind. It pumped him on to finish the song even faster so he could stop having them. In the meantime, he had almost forgotten about the mini-tornado being kicked up next to him. Sometime during the nerd kid's song selection, he pumped up his difficulty. His side was ablaze with notes to hit and, from the way the guy was flailing around, he probably would have hit a good amount of them too. Course, none of that matters if your not plugged in. Yea, sometime during the beginnig of the song and the end, the kid had went into such a frenzy that the cord to his guitar had come out and was whiping around his side of the arena like some sort of pissed off viper or something. Don't be mislead now, the officials tried to stop him and inform him of what had transpired but...yea, he wasn't listening and after being hit with the cord for about the 5th time, they simply said screw it. Why should they be hammered when this kid obviously doesn't care very much about what happens. At one point, one of the officials even tried to grab the kid but he started to scream and wail like a banchy. Roy was shocked he could even get that high of a decible. The official eventually just gave up as well.

All in all, it was an amusing show to say the least. To watch the cord swing around and even crack a glass or two was kind hilarious. Even more so was the fact that this kid was movign around as if he was some sort of real rocker. His movements were completly out of sink with the song but he was still doing them as if he was some huge name rock star. Even did the tounge thing from those guys that wear face paint. Roy was more surprised that the damn floor didn't give way under the kids feet considering how much he was bouncing around. He was a ball of energy...really bad energy. Didn't matter though. Even after beign done and covered with sweat, the kid was still sure he won...till his score popped up with absolute zeros.

You could almost pinpoint the moment when his heart and mind snapped. It was easy to see in his eyes. They almost seemed to break as well at the same exact moment. The place was silent for a moment as all eyes seemed to fall upon the boy. He was a total statue...just staring up at the score. He was still blisfully unaware of his cord coming out and him having lost completely due to his own stupidity...he was just in shock. Words could be heard coming from his mouth...no...to be more exact, gibberish could be heard spurting from his mouth in a low mumble. It was kidn of sad as the officials had to litterally pry the guitar from the kids hands and then carry him off stage to a waiting mother. It took about 5 guys to get the guitar away from him and another 3 to carry him without fear of breaking him or having him go into a temper tantrum. Not to mention, he was soaked with sweat so he was slippery as hell.

it was time for the finals...well, after they cleared up the floor a bit and put down a few new glass panes. They had figured a few kids would get a little too roudy and break a few glass panes but not one little kid like that. He had caused mroe damage by himself in one song that everyone else in the tournament had caused all tournament. Hell, they were almost out of tiles by the time they got finished replacing them. Either way, Roy wasn't allowed to leave the stage except to go to the restroom. Even during that time, they were still fixing up the last few tiles. A sigh simply left his lips as he stood there watching. And then...it hit him...he was in the Finals now...which meant that only one opponenet was left. But who? He had zoned out during almost all the other matchs so he didn't pay any lick of attention. So who was he competing against? His mind was alive trying to remember everything he could from the few matches he did see. But in the end, he had seen each of those contestents taken out at various times. Ype, he was hosed...he had no clue what was going to happen.

Without having any more clues to go on, he was forced to take the stage once more and simply sighed thinking about what he was getting himself into. As eh wallowed in his own little pit of dispare, he soon felt a hand touch his head and begin to mess with his hair. A quick spin was used to knock the hand away but he wasn't prepared for what he saw. There, behind him, was a beautiful woman easily in her early twenties. She smiled a bit to him and ruffled his hair some more. He had never seen her but apparently, the crowd knew her well. There was a hush over the crowd as she winked to Roy and then moved to take her spot. Then they erupted. Things were shouted at the stage like "Beat that pipsqueak." and "Marry Me". Roy felt ill now. He wanted to kill everyone in the audience...maybe it'd quiet down. He lowered his head and sighed then realizing that if he did that, they'd probably just haunt him for the rest of his life. THAT was a fate worse than death.

The girl was introduced as an apprentist...yep, a student guitar soloist...which meant she would actually have practiced some of these songs on a real guitar and thus, would have a better grasp of some of these damn things. Roy was in for it this time around. He was still a little sore int he arm from his last two matches but he couldn't really call it quits now. He had came too far and he refused to just throw it all away at this point. It'd be too pointless and too embarrasing to do it. The randomizer began to spin again on the screen. Roy was still a little worried about what this girl could do but he had to just push forward at this point...he ahd nothing left but to go forward.

The jam ending draws near.

You know, its a real shame when a person just decides they don't want to do something just cause it's not what they like.
This was one of those times. The girl simply took one look at the song and throw a minature tantrum. She huffed a bit and stepped to the side, not even bothering to pick up her guitar or anything. Was it mentioned that she had her own personal Guitar Hero guitar, specialized for ehr hands and everything. There were a few oows and awws when she first pulled it out of its solid black case. Even Roy was a little jealous...for about 5 seconds till he realized that it wasn't REALLY customized. Well, it was but it wasn't. The customizing was hand done by her. Nothing more than a few stickers placed properly and a bit of chipping and repainting on the shaft to give it a more stylish edge. Either way, the thing looked nice. But up close like they were now, Roy could see it. And apparently, she knew that he noticed it. As Roy glanced up to her for a moment, she looked down t her guitar then winked to him and blew him a kiss. Roy simply stood there, shaking his head a bit in disappointment. The girl was off her rocker. Oh well, no matter.

Shifting a bit, he almost missed the entire first half of the song. It wasn't like Roy to completly loose focus like that...but at the same time, it wasn't every day that a beautiful woman winked and blew kisses at him without giggling afterwards. He wasn't sure how to take it...then he simply filed it away under her being a tease or something. Pessimisim at its best was something Roy took...pride in as strange as it would seem. His philosphy was that if you were always pessimistic about things, you'd never be surprised by them. It was a philosphy that still hadn't proved him wrong yet. And it probably would be some time before it ever did. He was happy that way.

The slow song came to a graceful end. Roy enjoyed the music greatly but it always made him a little sad considering the main character died at the end of the anime but still, he enjoyed it allt he more because of the emotion it brought up in him. Yes, he could truely feel the song in the guitar even though the licks for it were pretty far and inbetween. It was mostly a wammy kind of song. Almost the moment the song was over, however, the woman was instantly on the prowl. She had the little catwalk strut down to the letter. Come to think of it, that ws what this stage kind of reminded Roy of. A catwalk. He could just imagine now where they got all this plate glass from and where it was probably gonna go back too after this event was over. He suddenly felt cheap and dirty. A shudder came over him as he sat there looking to the crowd again. Their eyes weren't even on him anymore, they had found a new thing to follow in this girl. Their eyes were glued to her as she shifted through each and every song as if it took great thought and care to figure out what she wanted. Everytime she seemed especially interested in a song, all the geeks in the crowd that liked that song got a rise...in more areas than one. But it was almost like someone had chopped off their vital organs. Then again, maybe it was the equivalent of that. After all, she had just dissed their favorite song while doing their favorite thing, playing video games. Roy almost felt sorry for them...no...wait...that was gas.

She finally found one and her face lit up. It was a song that a lot of people enjoyed but on the difficulty she picked, it could be a pain. Not in the beginning but towards the end it could be a b***h and 3 halfs and Roy hated it for that reason alone. Of course, she picked the highest difficulty almost instantly which forced Roy to do so as well since she made that choice quickly. And then she got back into position, blowing a kiss to him before getting ready to strike out. This was gonna be annoying...

Cronos destroyed the crystal brick like he did the others he would find the weak point of it, attack the weak point than destroy it. Cronos looked as the brick would turn to dust and a spirit would vanish. "Well I am starting to get the hang of this"Cronos smiled but than something happen that Cronos did not expect. The crystal brick would form around him into a prison of sorts. "What the ******** "Cronos looked around to see needles coming out of the bricks and inching for him. "Ahh ******** I think I need to escapes this place"Cronos looked at one of the bricks and attacked it by moving his arm backwords and striking it a trusting motion with his fist.
